Thank You, Captain Obvious!

Study shows cash transfers from rich to poor can increase happiness of the poor [More]

So naturally, the solution for human happiness is a dependency on communists!

Just ask CBS Mornings host Tony Dokoupil!

Curious thing though– they don’t really tell us much about the qualifications of the “researchers” to fundamentally alter the governance and course of humanity.

One is this guy, who also shared his “water is wet” epiphany by concluding “Smartphone use undermines enjoyment of face-to-face social interactions,” and the other fancies herself an expert in happiness who does a mediocre job of imparting it to those taking her classes.

Reality, of course, shows us that totalitarian governments with the power to impose forced wealth transfers have historically always resulted in human misery and destitution.

As an aside, you’d think a smart guy like Jeff Bezos would realize a simple truth pointed out by John Stossel:

If the IRS grabbed 100 percent of income over $1 million, the take would be just $616 billion. That’s only a third of this year’s deficit.

For the Children

Teacher in Minnesota uses two chairs to LOCK screaming student in school closet as other kids laugh [More]

Because teachers know best.

Just ask Eric!

Put sadistic serial abusers in charge and then wonder why the weakest links snap and come back looking for revenge…

Further down on the Minnesota report there’s a video of preschool “teachers” terrorizing children with a Scream mask. Part of me can’t help but feel that a father donning a mask of his own would have been justified to show those stupid, evil bitches what terror is really like.

One Big Happy Gun-Free Zone

The Montgomery County Council unanimously approved a bill on Tuesday banning the possession of firearms within 100 yards of a place of public assembly… it bans the possession of firearms in most public places, including “a park; place of worship; school; library; recreational facility; hospital; community health center; long-term facility; or multipurpose exhibition facility, such as a fairgrounds or conference center.” [More]

And we’ve already seen the “good” that does.

But don’t worry. “Only Ones” are exempted.

“[T]he son of immigrant parents,” eh, Gabe? So they figured imposing their native citizen disarmament practiced by those they were fleeing on those taking them in would be just the ticket?

Good thing that has nothing to do with the “single issue”. And I have that on good authority…

A Law Unto Himself

A federal judge has just blocked the Title 42 policy to expel illegals on the basis of public health. [More]

The “nonpartisan” apparatchik, nominated by Bill Clinton, reported by Joe Biden, and confirmed by voice vote, once more earns his keep.

Not that anyone so unaccountable by design is interested in what you have to say:

Information, communications, and documents other than internship applications submitted to Judge_Sullivan_internships@dcd.uscourts.gov will be discarded.

A Cultural Journey

SCOOP: Walt Disney Co. recently hosted a “cultural journey” for employees featuring a “Two-Spirit,” “she/they,” “drag queen,” “merperson” named Geo Neptune. The company is following every fad of radical gender theory, from children’s programming to pseudo-indigenous pantomime. [More]

So does “two spirits” mean he’s possessed?

And a “Master Basketweaver”? Wasn’t there a song that mentioned that?

Parents patronizing them are inviting them in and helping to spread Disney Family Values. Is this what you really want for your children?

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

Michigan school board appoints ‘unhinged’ 23-year-old LGBTQ+ trustee who self-describes as having ‘several mental illnesses’ [More]

Them.

Now Fly! FLY!

In an opinion piece for Scientific American, writer Bryn Nelson insinuated that my factual reporting on Drag Queen Story Hour was an example of “stochastic terrorism,” which he defines as “ideologically driven hate speech” that increases the likelihood of unpredictable acts of violence. [More]

Life imitates art…?

Such smears by agents of those who crave power and control seem to be all the rage these days.

Figures Scientific American is carrying their water.

Coming Soon, to a Democrat City Near You

The child was found in at 1 a.m. downtown Phoenix, AZ near one of the largest homeless encampment sites in the area nicknamed “The Zone.” The child was reportedly 20-24 weeks gestation and was found in the middle of the road. The baby was left near a dumpster at the encampment where over 1000 un-homed individuals live. The child was at an age where he or she could have survived outside the womb yet was not only abandoned but also burned to death. [More]

Did it hurt less than being drawn and quartered in utero?

So the new politically correct term is “un-homed”?

Sounds like we need communist bureaucrats to centrally control housing!

Former CIA Officer’s Enmity Toward ‘Right Wing’ Americans Shows Agency Priorities

He is presuming to apply terror rules against U.S. citizens on U.S. soil for, in the case of gun owner advocates, exercising our First Amendment-recognized right to defend and promote our Second Amendment-recognized right. [More]

If “progressive” spooks have their way, “conservatives” being “canceled” will take on a whole new meaning.

Can We All Get Along?

🚨 Breaking News 🚨

We are proud to announce that North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper will be our keynote speaker for our 2nd Annual Summit, “What’s Next? An Innovative Approach to Reducing Gun-Related Deaths” taking place virtually on November 17. 

“Reducing gun violence will take all of us coming together to find common ground to save lives,” says Governor Cooper. “I’m excited to discuss what’s happening in North Carolina with a bipartisan gun safety group like 97Percent who is bringing innovative solutions to reducing gun violence to the national conversation.”

To RSVP for this year’s conference click HERE.

You know, the kinder, gentler gun-grabbers.

I wonder if Roy will tell us what he likes about Jim Crow…?

Joe Walsh, Rob Pincus, and Amy Swearer are joining in to “legitimize” the show and demonstrate how “fair-minded” those paying for it are…

Everybody’s looking at the inclusion of Steven Gutowski into the mainstream discourse as a positive, and I hope he uses the elevated platform to the best effect possible, but I also believe there’s something in it for “them” in terms of the direction of the discourse.

What we’re seeing here is something I’ve warned about– all our “gun rights influencers” gushing over all the new gun owners without considering whether or not any votes have been changed…

The antis are picking a lot of them up just as surely as they’ve done with a lot of Fudds.

There I go vilifying by pointing out an obvious divide-and-conquer strategy again.

As if by Design

“They make these decisions openly. It’s not even [a] secret and we all know what will be the consequences of it. The defunding of the police, allowing shoplifting, giving drugs to drug addicts, giving money to people to stop work[ing], what will be the consequences? You’ll destroy society, you’ll destroy the city, you’ll destroy the economy…and it’s already happening. You would think how could they be so dumb. Of course, they’re not. They’re very smart. It’s by design. There’s no other logical explanation.” [More]

Or as Hannibal says…

Democrat Supports Heartbeat Bill

Professor: Asking questions about candidate’s stroke is ‘eugenics’ and ‘ableism’ [More]

Yeah, since when do “progressive” politicians have to be capable, competent, or even conscious?

The only time a heartbeat shouldn’t qualify is if it’s coming from a fetus, right, “Professor”?
