Notes from the Resistance
“First of all, I’m very skeptical of that number, because we have a lot of immigration pathways in the United States of America,” he responded, touting that he believed in uniting America as a big coalition, including those who did not vote for him and Trump. [More]
Who watched The View? Why do Republicans feel a need to make concessions to people who hate them regardless?

What’s the first rule of Plot Club?
Can you imagine having your mom turn you in?
“Vanguard of the Old”… Good grief.
Singing like a bird and ratting out his low-hanging fruit comrades to save himself now, is he? He’s a “leader” of a Signal chat group that wanted to “’jump-start’ another American revolution”? Can you imagine this incel blockhead being a “Founding Father”?
And “espousing anti-Semitic beliefs on social media and professing sympathy for Nazi leader Adolf Hitler” is a nice touch. Forgetting for a moment that Hitler was a socialist, it lets Constitutionalists concerned about an Epstein cover-up, the effects of data centers proponents aren’t talking about, and the extent of Israel’s influence over the Republic in general and the administration in particular get lumped right in with the collectivists.
Convenient. That’s one way to silence critics on the “real right” before the midterms. Cui bono? I think Longbow may be on to something.
And I also wonder what real threats, the ones with more serious operatives, might be ready to activate, will catch authorities completely flat-footed, and how many will be allowed to happen for a perceived political advantage.
That’s the problem with betrayed trust in government, isn’t it? You get to where you believe those addicted to power over others are capable of anything, even the ones who sometimes tell you what you want to hear.
“Plaintiffs challenge these prohibitions solely under the militia clause of Article I, Section 13 of the Constitution of Virginia. They do not rest their case on the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, nor on the individual right to keep and bear arms also embodied in Article I, Section 13,” the complaint declares. “Their argument is simpler and more fundamental: the militia clause guarantees the existence of a ‘well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms.’” [More]

Shootings increased near Chicago’s closed schools that sat empty, study finds [More]
So abandoned yet readily accessible buildings provide shelter for nefarious activities to go basically unchallenged? Who could have foreseen that?
It’s like providing the petri dish and the agar and then acting all surprised when something nasty grows in it.
Funny: As demand for schools went down, Stacy Davis’ compensation has gone up…
Don’t worry, though: The population is growing again!
International migration has helped boost Chicago’s population in the past few years. More immigrants moving into Chicago have helped offset the number of residents leaving Illinois.
Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.

Cleveland Cavaliers player James Harden was arrested on Saturday in Houston on a misdemeanor charge of unlawful carrying of a weapon in a motor vehicle, according to the Harris County District Clerk’s Office. Harden was arrested at 3:41 a.m. and booked just before 5 a.m., then posted $100 bond and was released from police custody, according to charging documents, which said he had a handgun in plain view that was not in a holster.

Incredibly poor judgment…
You know, requiring someone to disarm before entering a hookah lounge…
Some might say just going to a hookah lounge in the first place…
Leaving the gun like that was pretty dumb, too.

Five people were in custody as of Monday, and investigators identified 23 people as part of a potential network of plotters. The alleged plan involved using explosive-laden drones to hit buildings near the event, force a mass evacuation and steer crowds toward a pre-staged sniper team, officials said. A “second wave” was then allegedly planned to storm the White House gate, according to officials. [More]
What better place to do it than a highly-publicized mass gathering in a “gun-free zone”? Because Trump, after all, is an avatar.
And there’ll be plenty more opportunities.
They’d better have it right, that it was an actionable threat vs. low-hanging fruit with no operational capability s#!+-talking on Signal, or this is gonna backfire bigly. The administration had better hope Kash Patel is too smart and cautious to advance an Emmanuel Goldstein narrative.
And that said, with the country divided by ginned-up mob hatred like I’ve never seen it before, all it’s gonna take is a cop shooting an urban yute and cities across the the land will burn.
Got ammo?

Gavin Newsom claims Trump ordered DOJ probe targeting him and his wife [More]
Yeah, well f_ you, Gavin.
You once ordered a police probe targeting me and mine.
I’m thinking of publishing the record I obtained from SFPD on the incident.
“The police must have reasonable suspicion that the person is possessing the gun illegally or otherwise engaged in criminal activity,” wrote Judge Kathryn Grill Graeff. “Because the officers here stopped appellant based solely on his possession of a gun, without reasonable suspicion that he was possessing the gun illegally or otherwise involved in criminal activity, they did not have reasonable suspicion to stop him. The stop, therefore, violated appellant’s Fourth Amendment right against unreasonable seizures.” [More]

When we compare these broader estimates, Australia’s rape and sexual assault rate is roughly three times higher than that of the United States. Australia’s assault rate is about twice as high, and its burglary rate is about 2.5 times higher. [More]

Good for them.
But in the grand scheme of things, it’s a drop in the bucket just compared to what the state spends on illegal immigrants, and then factor in how much money the state has to “work” with on other collectivist wealth extortion/redistribution schemes, and this won’t give anyone in power pause.
