St. Louis among next wave of cities in DOJ effort to fight violent crime [More]
And the Collaborative didn’t work, either?
No worries. Federal dollars fix everything!

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.

I’m VDARE
Anybody who is truly concerned about the immigration issue and freedom of speech in America should defend VDARE. [More]
And “Free Republic” can go **** itself if it’s too cowardly to post the truth because Democrats might call it racist.
Racist commie traitors call everyone they want to destroy racist.
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.
The Customer’s Always Right?
Customer shoots Chipotle worker over guacamole dispute in Michigan [More]
There’s a product for that.
Certainly there’s more they can tell us about the captured suspect than he’s a “31-year-old Detroit man”…

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.

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.

Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer said he will strike back with legislation after a court in Texas said it won’t agree to his demand to change how it assigns cases — a seemingly technical issue, but with significant implications for how some major cases are decided. [More]
In other words, so much for separation of power. The repulsive tyrant-in-waiting knows he’s out of bounds so he intends to lay claim to new power. If Republicans are dumb enough to let him.
