This is the aftermath of a battle. Technically what you are looking at is gore. The result of body fluids indiscriminately leaking out of a human body after being shot to pieces. Soak it up. Until we ban semiautomatic assault weapons, you will have more. Way more.

So much wrong here… to start with, the moment he put his hand on the weapon he jeopardized his partner and himself because he took a hand off the suspect. And then, his muzzle discipline as he drew the weapon endangered his partner again. Oh, and brandishing it risks lack of retention…

The VIN number can be used to look up the car’s registration to verify the plates issued to the vehicle. If they don’t match the plates on the vehicle, a crime has been committed. It may even be possible to determine the owner of the vehicle in question. You know what to do. 3/3

Economists would beg to differ. Only wealthy, and ultra wealthy, folks would rebrand class distinctions as a “social” construct. When your income, as a class, is above the poverty line but still precarious, financial distinctions are less about social status and more about job markets and wages.

Russia is very much feeling the effects of Ukraine’s campaign against refineries and railways. This is their way of saying it won’t stop them. The problem for them is that taking out parts suppliers for coffee makers (and apartment buildings) isn’t going to ding Ukraine’s war footing.

Keep your kink to yourself. I don’t want to hear about it.

I would prefer he be exorcised and sent back to the hell he came from. But I’ll settle for prison.

What Hagerty purposely overlooks is that the census determines not just the number of representatives, but also is key to any number of state and federal programs and services. Undocumented immigrants can’t vote, but still pay taxes for services (roads, sewage, etc.) that need to be funded.

Ok, this just so full of stupid. Hagerty is referring to a compromise clause in the constitution that was arrived at because slave states wanted more representatives in the House. Free states rightly saw counting slaves as a hypocritical power grab and forced a compromise.

The long time commander of the DCNG was replaced just before the order to deploy. There is no emergency, so there is no mission. UCMJ defines that as an illegal order, as it violates the constitution. National Guard brass will have to answer for this. You’d think they’d have some foresight.

Saturday 8/16/25 I plan to attend a rally in DC protesting the federalization of their law enforcement. The question is: should I pick up a dozen or so foot long subs to hand out to rally goers? If so, what kind of sub should I order? Seriously.

No, we are not. The sad truth is that we never have been. The only thing between this sort of fascist takeover and democracy as we knew it was men of good conscience. Sadly, we have a dearth of the latter. It’s time to take to the streets. We are again called to the barricades.

Navarro has NEVER been credible. NEVER. Crackpot from day one. You’d think at some point he’d stop believing his own bullshit and admit he has no clue. But he can’t. This is the only way he knows how to get the attention he craves.

Stephen Miller is obviously laboring under the misapprehension that poverty is a crime.
