If You Have to Ask You Can’t Afford It

Kenton County District Court Judge Ann Ruttle will be suspended for two weeks without pay in May after the Judicial Conduct Commission found she denied appointment of council to a defendant in 2021 who couldn’t afford one in a criminal case, according to court records. [More]

That’s just the way some like it.

We’re the Only Ones Unsigning Enough

“Friend was violating no law by standing on the sidewalk and displaying his sign, and [Police Sgt. Richard] Gasparino had no lawful reason to order him to desist from that conduct,” the appeals court ruled. [More]

If he wanted to engage in police-approved speech in Stamford, he should have become a paid gunsnitch.

That said, it’s probably unfair for me to judge Sgt. Gasparino until I’ve goose-stepped a mile in his jackboots.

Kinda helps explain why Connecticut is so hot for unending citizen disarmament schemes

It’s Not Like the Bill of Rights was Meant for the People…

The ruling is major for many reasons, including that the government tried to claim that charter boat fishing is a “closely-regulated industry” to which the Fourth Amendment does not apply. [More]

Ah, the Scarborough Doctrine of authorized free speech exercisers

We’re the Only Ones Unseeing and Falsifying Enough

Lawyers are set to discuss the federal case against a former Kentucky police officer who fired blindly into Breonna Taylor’s apartment on the night of the deadly raid that left her dead… Hankison was indicted by the U.S. Justice Department last year along with three other officers, one of whom has pleaded guilty to helping falsify the warrant used to enter Taylor’s apartment… [More]

Then we have the ones who want to defund them are also the ones who want them to be the “Only Ones”…

A little help here, Norman?

Still Repressive After All These Years

Back in the day, Democrats reacted to the Supreme Court’s Brown v. Board of Education decision requiring that they respect all Americans’ civil liberties with fury and a petulant campaign of massive resistance. What is old is new again – the Democrat Party is back in form, furious that SCOTUS will not let them steal our rights. This time it is gun rights. The Bruen decision made it clear that blue states cannot deny your right to keep and bear arms on a whim. And the libs have gone into overdrive to undermine it. [More]

That the lying totalitarian wannabes call themselves “liberals” is all we need to know.

I Got Them Lügenpresse Blues

Liberal media are trying to protect the feds from the much-needed House weaponization committee [More]

Hence my continued use of “DSM.”

Duranty/Streicher Media.

Funny, how real national socialists want to smear anyone calling them what they are as Nazis to scare them out of using it.

When Everything Looks Like a Nail

Sen. Marco Rubio, R-FL., on Tuesday introduced bipartisan legislation that would ban the popular app TikTok from operating within the United States over national security concerns. [More]

What (or who) else could they assign themselves authority to hammer after citing such concerns?

Homegrown Tyranny

U.S. Marshals in Houston, Texas, on Monday arrested True the Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht and board member Gregg Phillips for contempt of court in a defamation case against them after they refused a federal judge’s order to release the name of a confidential source. [More]

Before you read the whole thing, get this playing in the background.

Looking for That Dime’s Worth of Difference

Someone inside the event didn’t like the sign Mr. Rose was holding and had the City of Alachua Police approach Mr. Rose to tell him to leave because it was a private event. [More]

I guess if you don’t have to respect the Second Amendment, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t feel free to ignore the First.

So some tight-@$$ed Vichycon at a DeSantis event, rather than doing the right thing and living up to that fidelity to the Second Amendment he makes such great political hay over, decided instead to channel their inner “progressive” snitch and sic the jackboots on a patriot?

And we’re supposed to just forget about this?

We’re the Only Ones Detained Enough

The indictment says Woodrow Massa, 66, participated in the arrest and detention of two people “despite the absence of an arrest warrant or probable cause,” denying the individuals their Constitutional right from unreasonable seizure. [More]

Not so fun on the other side of the table, is it, Woody? It must be pretty ironic knowing your only hope is if your captors violate the law worse than you did…

Pillow Talk

They asked him about Colorado and Dominion voting machines, then provided him a warrant to seize his phone. At first, he said, he didn’t want to turn it over because he runs all of his companies off that phone and he couldn’t operate without it. They didn’t raid him at his home. They tracked him down. He had been on a hunting trip in Iowa and was driving back. He stopped at a Hardee’s in Mankato, Minnesota. That’s when they appeared out of nowhere. They went to the trouble of hunting him down. [More]

That was to send an ominous message.

He’s lucky he was in a public place.  Imagine the free rein they’d have had if they’d pulled him over on a secluded stretch of road.

I repeat my question.

The Empire State Strikes Back

New York State Senate blocks citizens on Twitter, an unconstitutional move to crush dissent [More]

If you can eviscerate the Second Amendment with impunity, why would the First worry you? And it’s just fine, of course, with Twitter, which does the Democrats’ bidding in a fascist public/private partnership workaround. Besides, policy violations only result in expulsion for those deemed enemies of the regime.
