We’re the Only Ones On Track Enough

The Texas Rangers have launched a criminal investigation after two Houston police officers were accused of secretly placing a GPS tracking device on a suspect’s vehicle without a warrant… According to records, both officers initially denied involvement. [More]

And it further means they’d have had to lie about how they obtained any evidence resulting from the placement in order for it to be admissible.

Thank goodness the problem isn’t more widespread…. right?

We’re the Only Ones Entrepreneurial Enough

Outrage as Indiana police chief is accused of stealing confiscated guns and RESELLING them onto the streets of his crime-ridden city [More]

I wonder if he put his “customers” through this:

Interesting— his dad is a Democrat candidate for sheriff who was wholly onboard with the Harris/Walz citizen disarmament agenda.

MacArthur Park is Melting in the Dark

A California man who claimed to work for a taxpayer-funded nonprofit that, according to court documents, distributed needles to drug users in Los Angeles’ notorious MacArthur Park was busted for allegedly attempting to sell fentanyl, authorities said. [More]

Hey, if Big Weasel can do it…

What do the long-known conditions of this tax-funded park say about Democrat government?

Above the Law

In short, prosecutors often decide who will go to prison for a long period of time, regardless of the will of the voters. It gets even a little stranger. Though many states initially stripped judges of any discretion under habitual offender laws, the courts pushed back. For example, a case in California (People v. Romero) ended up with the California Supreme Court declaring that trial courts have discretion to dismiss or strike prior strike allegations in Three Strikes cases, either on the court’s own motion or on motion of the prosecutor (even over the prosecutor’s objection). Stated more bluntly, trial judges can creatively thumb their noses at three-strike law requirements. [More]

What could go wrong?

There’s only one law that should matter with violent habitual offenders.

Política Como de Costumbre

Mexican senator accuses Sheinbaum of shielding ‘narco-politicians’ after US cartel indictment – 10 current, former Mexican officials were indicted for allegedly partnering with the Sinaloa cartel [More]

Corruption and/or cowed acquiescence at the highest levels surprises who…?

Well, who’s pleasure do they serve at?

F_ these foreign and domestic enemies.

No Honor Among Thieves

Minnesota nonprofit accused of siphoning $6.5M to fund Vegas trips, luxury cars, private liquor store… Trahern Pollard, founder and now-former director of the nonprofit We Push For Peace, was supposed to be leading his organization in providing “conflict de-escalation’’ work… [More]

S0, he basically just applied the money to a different scam than the approved one…?

The spirit of Big Weasel lives on…

We’re the Only Ones Courteous Enough

[W]hen Bradley was asked why he took the laptop, he said he was doing Holland a “favor.” “I kept it for his courtesy, like I said with his phone, key and wallet,” Bradley told investigators. “It’s my mistake. I forgot to give him his stuff back and he tracked it.” [More]

And he only got a one-day suspension…? I think that’s what they call “professional courtesy.”

It’s instructive for what they call “top cops,” isn’t it?

And remember: Back the Blue!

We’re the Only Ones Commissarial Enough

Richard Kelly, the Clinton County Sheriff, and Ashley Kelly, the county’s former jail matron, have pleaded guilty after they were accused of using a company to receive payments from the jail’s commissary fund. [More]

Snouts in the trough…

And talk about a captive audience…

We’re the Only Ones Apologetic Enough

Through tears in court, Paulino said he’s not only sorry, but that he also intends to repay taxpayers the $248,929.02 he still owes. [More]

How? And if he can’t make good on that pledge, why should we believe he’s sorry about anything other than having been caught?

I Didn’t Do It, Nobody Saw Me Do It, There’s No Way You Can Prove Anything!

Fauci advisor David Morens admits in an email that he “learned from our foia lady here how to make emails disappear after i am foia’d but before the search starts” [More]

Top government officials sound just like Bart Simpson. Pathetic.

Sounds like it’s time to make him disappear, or at least use the leverage to squeeze him to name higher-ups.

I know, keep dreaming?

Maybe not.

It’ll depend on who he’s more scared of.

We’re the Only Ones Benefitting Enough

Three Georgia State Patrol troopers who intentionally bumped vehicles or performed other maneuvers to stop vehicles during pursuits sought payouts afterward from the other driver’s insurance, claiming personal injuries to supplement their paychecks, an internal investigation found. [More]

And just wait ’til you see what we can do with tripping hazards in wrong house raids!

Excreting Sheila from the Body Politic

The momentum for expulsion comes after a House ethics subcommittee found Cherfilus-McCormick guilty of more than two dozen ethics violations in March, including allegations related to stealing millions of disaster relief funds to finance her congressional run. She is also facing a separate federal criminal indictment that could result in more than 53 years in prison if convicted. [More]

What is it with ethical dwarfs supported by prohibitionist groups wanting our guns?

And what is it with voters in her district electing a scumbagette to replace a scumbag?
