We’re the Only Ones Politicking Enough

Former Capitol Police officer warns that ‘nothing is preventing’ another Jan. 6 [More]

Yep, Republicans are traitors and need Democrat Harry to disarm, them, vote in a pathway to citizenship, and continue the genocide of the preborn.

Funny, this is labeled as “news,” not an in-kind contribution political ad…

Hero Sandwich

Dramatic moment Good Samaritan tackles customer who ‘battered and spat at Indiana Subway worker over a sandwich’ – as hero is rewarded with free food for life [More]

And she didn’t even have to hand him a card.

Now watch the perp get a personal injury attorney, claim racism, and go after deep Subway pockets for rewarding vigilantism.

Behold, a Marvel in the Darkness*

Democrat scaring constituents to vote for gun control.

I witnessed a miracle this afternoon. To quote my 19-month-old granddaughter, “Wow.”

You may be able to convince yourself that such a perfect alignment of relative sizes and distances is the product of random chance rather than design and order, but the odds of that are so improbable as to be indistinguishable from magical thinking.

At the height of totality, there was a bright red dot @ 195° which I understand could have been either a solar prominence or light making its way through a lunar surface irregularity.

What a show of a lifetime.

Extended Break

I’ve got to go prep the pot roast I’m making for dinner tonight and then I’m setting up for the eclipse.

I still have dozens of email tips from the weekend I haven’t even looked at yet, and more coming in today. I’ll try to get to the ones that I can when I get back, but I’m afraid I’m overwhelmed.

Tomorrow I need to focus on articles and will get to emails when I can.

More Than They Can Chew?

Colorado Legislators Ditch Plan To Ban Guns in Dozens of ‘Sensitive Places’ – The amended bill applies only to schools, polling places, and certain government buildings. [More]

I don’t suppose it occurs to them that limiting the number of soft targets increases odds at those locales?

Choice of Battleground

Around 700 protestors showed up to protest his appearance, chanting slogans like ‘no justice, no peace,’ ‘Kyle is a killer,’ and ‘lock his ass up.’ [More]

I’m debating going next Tuesday.

Outside can be dangerous enough. That it’s inside the KIVA Auditorium makes avoiding expected trouble problematic.

I’m not confident promoters have thought through all the potentials.

We’re the Only Ones Misidentifying Enough

Arizona woman claims wild case of mistaken identity put her in federal prison [More]

They don’t have fingerprints?

UPDATE

Arizona woman falsely arrested won’t have to go to court to prove her identity – Federal judge dismissed her case following an ABC15 Investigation [More]

And now she sues the taxpayers.

No New Thing Under the Sun

The Mrs. spent a good part of the weekend as a volunteer signing visitors up for the Great Lakes Science Center Total Eclipse Fest. One of her co-volunteers tried to sell her on the desirability of the Ohio Convention of States Project.

My feelings on the Con-Con con are pretty well established. I asked her to send a link to her well-meaning but misguided new acquaintance, protection, if you will, from being blinded by bright ideas.

Speaking of not being blinded, I’m in the totality path and, clouds willing, intend to put on the exclipse glasses, position an Adirondack chair, light a maduro, and take a long afternoon break, cloud cover permitting, so expect that to affect posting here.
