LIMITED TIME DEAL: Craftsman VERSASTACK Mechanics Tool Set. #CommissionEarned

ICYMI: NO KINGS, JUST COMMISSARS? I report from “No Kings” Boston.

WEATHER VANES TURN AROUND LESS OFTEN: After brief moderation, California’s Newsom swings back to left with ICE protests.

When Newsom ran for governor in 2018 and for re-election in 2022, his platform included progressive causes like universal healthcare, climate change policy, criminal justice reform, and expansion of social welfare programs.

While presumably well-meaning, Newsom’s tenure as governor has exacerbated many of the state’s challenges like prolific homelessness and rising crime. As of 2023, California is home to over 180,000 homeless people, including over 10,000 veterans. Public safety has taken a demonstrable hit since California’s passage of Proposition 47, which, in addition to making drug possession no longer a felony, also classifies five property offenses for which the dollar value is less than $950 as misdemeanors: 1) theft, 2) receiving stolen property, 3) shoplifting, 4) check forgery, and 5) writing bad checks. Before the passage of the proposition, these offenses could be charged as either felonies or misdemeanors.

Prior to his term as California’s governor, in San Francisco, where Newsom was mayor from 2004 to 2011, shoplifting and property crimes spiked, with police reporting a 15% increase in theft-related incidents from 2022 to 2024.

Additionally, it is increasingly harder for residents of the Golden State to purchase a home. California’s median home price has surged to over $900,000, pricing out many middle-class families. Newsom’s policies have also increased taxes and regulatory burdens on businesses.

“Presumably” is doing an awful lot of work in that second graf.

WHY WAS THE NONPROFIT DANA FARBER CANCER INSTITUTE PARTICIPATING IN THE ANTI-TRUMP “NO KINGS” MARCH IN BOSTON?

YOU CAN’T TAKE YOUR EYE OFF THEM FOR A MINUTE:

Trump 1.0 had Paul Ryan, who conned him on the wall. Trump 2.0 has Rollins, who's already done huge damage to his deportation efforts, sabotaging them at the worst moment (when they're starting and under attack by the press and the left). https://t.co/DfR5t1PKrj

CHRIS MURPHY IS GARBAGE:

THE ARMY OF DAVIDS COMES THROUGH:

Without independent journalists covering the violence of Antifa in the Seattle area, you’d only have the @seattletimes setting the false narrative through lies. Their headline makes no mention of the organized rioters blockading the building, creating a dangerous hostage… https://t.co/8Yjnb3H63H

UPDATE: Don Surber: Trump 53, Media 31. This weekend’s reporting shows why the media is not trusted.

THERE HE GOES AGAIN: What the Hell Happened to Tucker Carlson?

IT’S OLDER THAN YOU THINK:  A history of… pizza.  According to one Victorian reporter “The pizza shops are about the filthiest in Naples, and whoever knows Naples will admit that is saying a good deal.”

GOOD TIME FOR THIS:  A Summer Reading Program for Conservatives. Tired of all the school and public libraries run by lefties who fill the shelves with woke and lewd content? One way to fight back is to reclaim those libraries- one request at a time!

THE LIES ARE THERE EVERY WEEK.  ALL YOU CAN DO IS KEEP FIGHTING:  My TCW week in review – fighting the lies.

TELL ME NOBODY AT MSNBC KNOWS ANY CONTEMPORARY MEMBERS OF THE MILITARY WITHOUT SAYING …  MSNBC Shocked Army’s 250th Birthday Lacked ‘Tense’ or ‘Dark, Malevolent Energy’.

THIS IS IMPORTANT:  What Nobody Tells You About Manifest Destiny and America’s Western Expansion, Along with How It All Integrates with Britain’s 1840s Attempt to Fence In the USA.

DESPERATE AND UNPRINCIPLED IS DANGEROUS:  Not Even Hiding It: 148 Democrats Go Against Barring Non-Citizens from Voting.

SPREAD THE WORD. THE WIDER THE SPREAD THE MORE LIKELY IRANIANS WILL SEE IT:  Starlink For Iran.

IT USUALLY IS:  The Army is FAILING Its Soldiers.

NOT TIRED OF WINNING:  USAID Official and Three Others Plead Guilty After Decade-Long, Half-Billion Dollar Bribery Scheme Falls Apart.

SHOCKED, SHOCKED, SHOCKED, BEHOLD MY SHOCKED FACE:  Crickets from J6 Fanatics as Anti-Trump Protesters Breach Barricades, Rush US Capitol.

NOT WORSE THAN I THINK; AND IT IS CATASTROPHIC, YES:  “The Global Fertility Crisis is Worse than You Think”.

PADILLA SHOULD GET THE JANUARY 6TH TREATMENT:  Why Senator Padilla Must Be Charged.

THE PROBLEM IS THE LEFT AND LEFTISM IS A JEALOUS GOD:  Anyone who believes “Jews caused the DEI in games” has never worked in video games or the IT industry. As a general rule, the people pushing DEI and Woke policies and designs absolutely despise Jews (as well as Christians). And they make no effort to hide it.

AND FOR: Those without x.

ABSOLUTELY:  US must face claims over pandemic ban on residential evictions.

DEVELOPING: Vance Boelter taken into custody in lawmaker shootings in Minnesota, sources say.

ANNALS OF LEFTIST AUTOPHAGY: “AFT President Randi Weingarten is leaving the DNC. In a letter to DNC Chair Ken Martin, she wrote, ‘I appear to be out of step with the leadership you are forging, and I do not want to be the one who keeps questioning why we are not enlarging our tent.’”

UPDATE:

MORE DNC NEWS: Lee Saunders, the president of AFSCME, is also out at the DNC.

This amounts to the exit of two of the highest-profile union leaders aligned with the Democratic Party.

The Times reported Randi Weingarten's exit earlier.
