Notes from the Resistance
NYC bill preventing landlords from performing criminal background checks gains traction – New York City Mayor Eric Adams has suggested he supports the legislation [More]
Seeing as how the vast majority of people this will affect vote Democrat, I say go for it. Maybe force landlords to offer preferential discounts to them because they’ve been socially disenfranchised…
How do you like that Eric now, Tucker?
“Trump’s false, insulting, and defamatory October 12 statement about Carroll—and his actual malice in making that statement—is fully consistent with his tried-and-true playbook for responding to credible public reports that he sexually assaulted women,” the lawsuit said. [More]
So you don’t need to prove someone actually committed the crime he’s being accused of anymore?
And remember: Believe women!
Further details on the manifesto were unavailable, but The Daily Beast has contacted the Chesapeake Police Department for comment. On Thursday, a law enforcement official said there were “no updates available at this time.” [More]
Now that the narrative has been shot they need to figure out the best way to deal with reality.
A rapper known around town as “Monkey” is wanted in connection with a deadly double shooting in October. [More]
I’m afraid to say anything.
The public defenders for the suspect in the mass shooting at a Colorado Springs LGBTQ nightclub said in a Tuesday night court filing obtained by a New York Times reporter that their client is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns. [More]
Did someone say “self-loathing“?

To make matters more confusing, the guy who beat him up was apparently straight.

When the NCPD found out that the woman seeking a concealed carry permit because she feared for her life didn’t notify the NCPD Pistol License Section of her 911 call, they promptly stopped the background investigation and suspended her pistol permit. They proceeded to confiscate her firearms, including her long guns. [More]
And remember, all you “law-abiding gun owner” types: Back the Blue!

America’s deadly gun culture: Over 600 mass shootings in one year [More]
Funny… when I think of the phrase “gun culture,” I think of the millions of members of the NRA, GOA, SAF, etc., that is, the most heavily armed citizen population on the planet that is also demonstrably the most peaceable.
So it’s not the guns.
The problem with those responsible for murder is they are beyond being simply uncultured.
Of course, those responsible for blaming good Americans for the predations of evil know that — well, maybe not the “authorized journalists,” who as a whole have proven ignorant, biased, and lazy, but certainly the cold and calculating minds giving them all the narrative talking points to parrot.

Walmart employee in Chesapeake, Virginia kills 6 with pistol, police say [More]
“Pistol”? Not “AR-15-style rifle”?
No matter. They want them all.
And naturally, “The employee has not been identified as police say they have yet to contact his next of kin.”
It’s not like he’s the victim here, and how many hours has it been? My immediate question is what kind of internet trail did he leave, and is it being brushed over as we speak?
We still don’t know much about the Colorado Springs moron, either, except they couldn’t get him on a bomb threat rap, some desperately want to establish a MAGA connection, and the information gatekeepers evidently don’t want anything that might conflict with that insinuation coming to the fore.
UPDATES
A former and retired South Carolina Highway Patrol trooper was arrested for stealing and selling property from a crash, according to the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division. [More]
I can’t find many details on this other than the moron risked it all for basically nothing, which is a pretty good indicator of the judgment he displayed while still on the force.

“But when you have a total lunatic who might as well be speaking to pink elephants under the tree that he’s living under, they are telling us this is the fault of the GOP. Hand over your guns in your freedom because of this maniac — I don’t think so,” he said. [More]
Questions “authorities” know the answers to but have so far refused to reveal that would go a long way toward dispelling “rightwing conspiracy theories”:
A criminal justice reform advocate who helped pass sweeping changes to the criminal code including reducing sentences for those convicted of crimes in Washington, D.C., was shot and killed in the city last Tuesday, just hours before the city council passed the bill. [More]
Be careful what you ask for. And of what you would impose on others.
Before she knew it, the gentleman in the black shirt, black backwards hat (as seen in the video), basically football tackles my mom and my mom just remembers flying and that’s it,” Nicole said. [More]
Why, when telling reporters about violent and cowardly sociopathic scumbags, do so many people call them gentlemen?
As to why the victims were defenseless, well, maybe they backed the wrong “Only One.”
What I’m actually most curious about: Did old groomer “Sir Elton” trot out more cub scout strippers?

Let Chuck Schumer have his way and we can be just as “commonsense” here!
“We changed the looks of his groin forever if you know what I mean,” Judd said. [More]
From his previous run-ins, it sounds like this whole incident would have been prevented if only “the law” had been applied.
