A Cut Above

Anti-Israel students were running around on campus at University of California Los Angeles @UCLA yesterday, brandishing knives while cutting down posters of Israeli civilians kidnapped by Hamas. Is it normal for students to carry large knives on campus? [More]

Not according to the campus cops:

You can have a knife, such as a pocket knife, as long as the blade is not more than 2 1/2 inches long, it does not open automatically and has only one sharp edge.

But they’re primarily there to make sure Americans who believe in the Second Amendment are unarmed.

Well, If He Wasn’t Doing Anything WRONG…

The Obama administration, just 17 days before the inauguration of President Donald Trump, revised the guidelines of Section 2.3 of Executive Order 12333, “Procedures for the Availability or Dissemination of Raw Signals Intelligence Information by the National Security Agency.” [More]

I’m more concerned about the people in his administration with Swamp loyalties knew about it and didn’t inform him.

We’re the Only Ones Goony Enough

Narcotics detectives and patrol officers, some who called themselves the Goon Squad, barged into homes in the middle of the night, accusing people inside of dealing drugs. Then they handcuffed or held them at gunpoint and tortured them into confessing or providing information, according to dozens of people who say they endured or witnessed the assaults. [More]

I thought “we” sent terrorists to Gitmo…?

And the sheriff’s excuse is he’s oblivious?

Looks like Facebook comments are causing them to deactivate content.

Good: More Internecine Democrat Warfare

“Who would’ve thought that in 2023 Jewish soldiers would be the nazis carrying out ethnic cleansing?” Bishop Talbert W. Swan II, the president of the Springfield, Mass., chapter of the NAACP, wrote on social media this month of Israel’s military response to Hamas. “This isn’t a WAR, it’s a HOLOCAUST,” Swan also said. [More]

So will he and his congregation still vote for Biden if he stays in the race?

Wearing a Target

Texas AG Ken Paxton sues Pfizer for vaccine efficacy misrepresentation, ‘conspiring to censor the vaccine’s critics’ [More]

I’d like to see the short list for plans being evaluated to destroy him, and know where the final approval will come from.

I’ve never talked about this before but for some reason it seems tangentially relevant: Back in an earlier life when I was the plant manager for a pharmaceutical company, I got a commendation from Pfizer for a successful national product launch, along with a not-so-subtle dig at corporate for almost derailing things. Just to show how coroporate politics work, that earned me some resentment among one of the higher-ups and put a target on my back.

Without Further Comment

Once the comment period has ended, the ATF will consider the public comments before deciding whether to adopt the rule, modify it, or drop it. [More]

Y’know, I was nodding along with you right until this last line. Does anyone seriously believe the decision wasn’t made before the required rule was posted for comment?

The only reason I submitted one was to show my solidarity with those making their refusal to bow down a matter of record. That’s why I urge you to come and stand with us, regardless of the coordinated Astroturf campaign.

I just wish I could believe the poor showing from “our side” is because most consider it a useless effort and believe Bruen will save us, instead of what “experience hath shown” to generally be the case.

Ball’s in Their Court

US Supreme Court justice Amy Coney Barrett just ordered the defendants in National Association for Gun Rights v. Naperville to explain why the court should not enjoin Illinois’s “assault weapon” ban law. [Watch]
