Unhatched Chicken Counting

The Dubious and Doomed ‘Assault Weapon’ Ban That the House Approved Today May Cost Democrats This Fall – Recent polling suggests that Americans are starting to recognize that such laws make no sense. [More]

I wish I could share the enthusiasm but I think all it would take is one gun-free zone exploitation the magnitude of Beslan and you’d see a whole different set of survey results, not to mention a panicked Republican red wave-blowing scramble to get out of the water.

Now is no time to relax like the overconfident hare. Press on in earnest like the tortoise.

Meanwhile, Over at Stupid Party Central

Inside the secret Manchin-Schumer deal: Dems shocked, GOP feels betrayed [More]

What kind of dumb@$$ Republican would feel betrayed by what any rational observer would expect? And do they really think Big Tech is going to support anyone but Democrats with their newfound welfare largesse?

And yep, long past time to jettison Mitch.

Rhymes with ‘Bunt’

2022 Congressional Baseball Game: Democratic Rep. Linda Sanchez flips off Republican lawmakers [More]

I guess the Democrats couldn’t send a wannabe assassin this time. You know, someone who exemplifies the type of unhinged mind it takes to vote for anti-gun Democrats like Sanchez

That she wasn’t immediately ejected from the game, as a young child would be in T-ball, tells us much about behavior standards for Democrat “adults.”

I don’t know what’s funnier– them losing 10-0 or Sanchez needing a pinch waddler.

One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

The new party, called Forward and whose creation was first reported by Reuters, will initially be co-chaired by former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang and Christine Todd Whitman, the former Republican governor of New Jersey. They hope the party will become a viable alternative to the Republican and Democratic parties that dominate U.S. politics, founding members told Reuters. [More]

Spend that money! I see the greater hit on Democrats afraid of the Bolshevik wing, and I’d say Yang and Whitman are not exactly opposites attracting.

Sounds like they all deserve each other, and on the plus side, once they join, the media will no longer be able to characterize Vichycon talking heads as “conservative.”

A Vote Delayed…

Democrats delay votes on police, gun control legislation Package included bills on a new assault weapons ban, to reinstate some civil liability for gun-makers and on grants for police [More]

That means there are Democrats afraid to vote for it because it won’t play in their home districts. I need to find out who those are. There could be a real left-against-left exploitable weakness here.

Media More Than Happy to Help Republicans Blow ‘Red Wave’

“Losses in Ohio, Georgia, and Pennsylvania would almost certainly doom the GOP’s chances of winning the Senate.” [More]

Democrat media megaphones are ready, willing, and able to amplify and exploit self-inflicted wounds as the Stupid Party continues to demoralize its base.

We’re the Only Ones Resigned Enough

NC town’s entire police force quits in protest over progressive town manager [More]

She sounds like a real entitled prize. But don’t worry– she won’t be the one serving warrants or responding to domestic dispute calls, what with Sheriff Bizzell smelling a contract cities opportunity…

Funny, at first I thought this was a repeat of a story I came across earlier this month, but that one was in Colorado.

Panama Red and Brazil Nuts

On July 6, teachers-union activists began protests … The leadership of the construction workers union are militant leftists… [More]

Thanks, Jimmy Carter and the Senate!

And as long as we’re heading south:

But with just over two months before the first round of voting, opinion surveys widely show Brazilians think they’d be better off without Bolsonaro. Frustration over the spiraling cost of living has propelled Lula to lead the race by more than 10 percentage points. [More]

And what will be one of the first things Lula does when he’s back in power…?
