And There was War in Heaven

A Self-Created Problem

Under current law, New York’s governor has 10 days to declare a special election for a vacant seat and an additional 80 to 90 days to hold the election. Stefanik’s seat is key for the Republican Party and Trump’s second administration, as Republicans hold a slim majority at 218 members to the Democrats’ 215 members. [More]

So why does Trump think it’s more important to have a UN ambassador?

We’re the Only Ones Taking It Off, Taking It All Off Enough

A suburban New York police department routinely violated residents’ civil rights, including making illegal arrests and using unnecessary strip and cavity searches, according to a new U.S. Department of Justice report. [More]

Can we presume their bodycams weren’t the only things turned on?

And the badged @$$holes who lied were only docked and aren’t in jail? Why do I wonder if one of them called “Riccola” during the cavity search?

“Back the blue” my…eye.

NY Democrat’s ‘Outside the Box Thinking’ Has Unintended Consequences – for Her

And note the Constitution doesn’t just say that executive officers have to take the oath—it says they are “BOUND” by it. That means once she volitionally “unbinds” herself, she’s in violation of a non-negotiable requirement and must be removed from office. [More]

To steal a line from Lex Luthor about Otis: “It’s amazing that brain can generate enough power to keep those legs moving.”

Laws for Thee…

A staffer for a Democratic member of the U.S. House of Representatives was arrested at the Capitol on Monday when a regular security check turned up ammunition in his bag, the Capitol Police said in a statement. The police identified the staffer as Michael Hopkins, who works for Representative Joe Morelle… [More]

Do as we say, not as we do. It’s only “commonsense.”

Outside the Box Thinking

In response to President-elect Trump’s immigration plans, some New York Democratic legislators are considering secession from the United States. State Senator Liz Krueger has proposed the idea of New York becoming a new province of Canada, arguing that this move could alleviate Canada’s burden of enforcing illegal border crossings. “It’s not unreasonable to think outside of the box,” said Krueger. [More]

Right, reject every terrible sacrifice that made American unique and great, and return to the king. Funny, how an Opposite Day “progressive” wants to return to the system that was rejected two-and-a-half centuries ago.

There may be unintended consequences for her in this. I’ll do an article for next week to explain.

A Chink in the Armor Ban

A federal judge has ruled that a constitutional challenge to New York state’s ban on selling bulletproof vests to civilians can move forward. The ruling by U.S. District Court Judge John Sinatra Jr. rejected a motion from state Attorney General Letitia James and other New York officials to dismiss a challenge, ruling the plaintiffs have standing to sue the state over the restrictions.

“Commonsense gun safety law advocate” Letitia not only wants to disarm you, she wants her shock troops to be able to more easily kill you with their “weapons of war.”

Government Practices Ritual Animal Sacrifices

California county pays up after illegally seizing child’s pet goat – That goat, Cedar, was ultimately slaughtered after local authorities tracked him down like a fugitive. [More]

Looks like I’m gonna need to design another shirt.

I guess Peanut and Fred weren’t enough to satisfy the bloodlust.

A Safe Seat Democrat

The face diapers work as well as his “gun laws.” How’d they let the one guy in without one?

Let’s be clear. Allowing Trump to hold an event at MSG is equivalent to the infamous Nazis rally at Madison Square Garden on February 20, 1939 [More]

That may be you he’s talking about.

Solid blue district Democrats don’t even try to hide their Antifa affinities.

Or that they want your guns.

Rochester First: News You Can Wipe With

New gun safety legislation signed into law [More]

Great narrative talking point PR release masked as “news,” “real reporter” Jamie Deline! And nice trick burying the tepid non-rebuttal at the very end to make it seem like both sides weighed in.

Well, you can pay the rent this month, but I really didn’t see anything here that Gemini or Chat GPT couldn’t do cheaper.

The Monroe (County) Doctrine

Shoemaker submitted his original response to the complaint on Sept. 18, including a defense reading: “There was and will be no Constitutional violation in enforcing the statute because the phrase ‘bear arms’ is a 1791-era idiom referring to military or militia service. Plaintiffs have failed to plead their involvement in a militia.” [More]

He “loves history“? You can’t prove it by this.

This is the quality of moron presuming to detemine your rights in New York? What repercussions will this douche suffer?

Looks like the county prosecutor is just as big of an @$$hole.

To those praising the “Only One” for “deescalation,” this was elitism writ large. He knew who she was and who she knows. Imagine what he would have done to her if she weren’t the DA, that is, to you and me, for the same behavior.

All she had to do was “apologize,” and she’s back to having the uniforms put you and me behind bars for claiming our rights.

He Puts the ‘Sap’ in Sapraicone

Gillibrand vs. Sapraicone: The Race for US Senate forum [Watch]

So. Mike is for “red flag laws and background checks”?

Then why should I believe someone who doesn’t understand the Second Amendment won’t betray us on semiautos the first chance he gets to distance himself from another “gun-free zone” exploitation?

Just like Kirsten did…?

She has such a huge lead anyway, why should the gun owners in her district who aren’t Fudds bust their humps on a losing battle to push for a betrayer with an (R) after his name, and what message would that send the GOP on acceptable candidates?
