Notes from the Resistance
As a teacher, I attended the National Education Association convention last week, and my worst fears were confirmed… From what I observed, the NEA’s goal is for public education to be a training ground for political activism, while demonizing anyone—including students and their families—who does not share those same political and sociological beliefs.

Good grief. How long have you been a teacher? Because I’m not one and I could have told you that decades ago.

Iran, Russia, and China are gearing up to run a series of major war drills in Latin America in a show of force meant to signal how these militaries can reach the United States. [More]
We can treat it as a shot across the bow and a warning to the U.S. on NATO expansion and support for Ukraine. Just don’t forget this is an older plan than the current conflict:
We know that there are those who have not made a secret of wanting to invade the U.S. through Mexico, and not just with “migrant caravans,” although you do have to wonder about just who is embedding themselves in those. Back in 1985, The Washington Times quoted Nicaraguan Interior Minister Thomas Borge, who advocated:
“We have Nicaragua, soon we will have El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Mexico. One day, tomorrow or five years or fifteen years from now, we’re going to take 5 to 10 million Mexicans and they are going into Dallas, into El Paso, into Houston, into New Mexico, into San Diego, and each one will have embedded in his mind the idea of killing ten Americans.”
So naturally, the treasonous Democrats are doing everything they can to remove deterrents.
At least our professional warrior class has empathy bellies.

Just because you rightly mistrust the West on its Ukraine assertions is no reason to unquestioningly embrace a Russian apologist:
Believe him and his adherents if you like, but some of us aren’t going to kneejerk swallow fantastic allegations without actual evidence, especially when they come from someone who helped the United Nations implement arms control treaties and who was later “found guilty of unlawful contact with a minor and five of six other charges after a three-day trial in Monroe County Court on charges stemming from an online sex sting.”
The Congressman might want to keep a closer eye on what and who is being promoted under his name.
New video shows suspects shoot and kill rideshare driver in Oakland [Watch]
A good man trying to build a better life worked two jobs to provide for his loved ones and these two submoronic predators, who the smart money says have been in the system with prior victims, feel entitled to execute him because he didn’t obey them quickly enough.
And the government there encourages that and demands your guns

Cowardly DSM apparatchik Lawrence O’Donnell spreads the fear-mongering message that “Resistance is futile.” [Watch]
The scenario he presents of armed teachers congregating in the hallway is hardly the only option, nor even a tactically sound or likely one. And his solution is apparently to have “Only Ones” afraid to face one guy with an AR-15 go after the untold millions he wants to ban.

A customer stepped in to stop an armed robber holding a knife to the clerk’s neck. The suspect charged at the customer, who fired four times and killed the suspect. [More]
Not the first time we’ve seen this at a QuikTrip this year…
Anybody know their policy? Because here’s what happened when an unarmed customer was attacked by a predator…

Third Chicago Police Officer Dies By Suicide This Month [More]
We’ve talked for a long time now about how the antis exploit suicide as justification for citizen disarmament, with them conveniently not mentioning that the ones tasked with doing the disarming are a much more at-risk population.
Pritzker wants to empower them to further deny guns to citizens they only have a surface awareness of. Yet here we see colleagues they closely interact with on a daily basis slipping through the cracks and given thin blue line passes.

Steven Dettelbach, the newly sworn-in director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, said there is no overarching answer to solving the nation’s gun violence, even as guns have become the leading cause of death for children in the U.S. [More]
All by their own selves?
This is how it works: Step one, acquire statistics on firearm-related deaths among children ages 1-14. Step two, combine that relatively low number with the far greater number of firearm-related deaths involving juveniles and young adults ages 15-19, or even ages 15-24. Step three, present the resulting data as the shocking number of “children” (ages 1-19 or 1-24) who are subjected to “gun violence” each day/week/month/year. Step four, use the disingenuous statistic to advocate for pre-determined gun control policies.
Gee, it’s almost like the media are the enemy or something…

AOC fakes being handcuffed after arrest at abortion rights protest [More]
Everything about her and her fellow Marxist apparatchiks is phony– right down to them pretending to be among the oppressed.
Going back to an earlier “protest,” I’m still wondering why there were no criminal charges for taking over the Capitol and interfering with “the peoples’ business” when John Lewis et al. staged a violence monopoly sit-in. You tell me how oath-breakers undermining a fundamental right the Founders deemed “necessary to the security of a free State” is not a seditious conspiracy.
Locally, the virtue-signaling all-white and woke Stow city council renamed a damn bridge after him.

Pig Pritzker channels his inner Gold Hat:
Due process? We ain’t got no due process. We don’t need no due process. I don’t have to show you any stinking due process!
And who better to be the arbiters than the “Only Ones” who say instead of shooting attackers, women should vomit?
Assuming they can still define “woman”…

To better arm you for the fight, I’ve created a seminar entitled “Win Against ‘Woke’: Defeating Leftists in Daily Life,” which focuses on beating the “woke” mob in daily life. From school boards trying to indoctrinate your children with “Critical Race Theory” to “woke” employers forcing you to use gender pronouns inconsistent with your Faith, “Win Against Woke” will give you the tools you need. [More]

How the GOP’s anti-immigrant crusade hindered the Uvalde shooting response – School district officials’ frequent use of a lockdown alert to warn about migrants reportedly resulted in some school faculty members initially not taking it seriously the day of the shooting. [More]
That’s the “progressive” takeaway from the official report.
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”. I have that on good authority…

Court records state store owner Jon Whitley told Berkely County Sheriff Deputies he bought a replica Glock BB gun and placed it among the other real firearms “with the intent of pranking his friend,” identified as 36-year-old Stefan Mrgan, an employee of the store. Whitley mistakenly picked up a real firearm instead of the replica, pointed it at the victim, and fired, the affidavit states. [More]
Inexcusable. And the moron is still in business?
Nonetheless, OSHA inserting itself into the equation recalls a warning from the past, which I’ll probably dredge up again soon.
