VIDEO NCLA LEGAL TITANS EXPLAIN HOW THEY STOPPED NASDAQ AND THE SEC FROM IMPOSING DEI RULES ON BOARDS. Reminder/Disclosure, I’m on the NCLA’s Board of Advisors.

SAY NO MORE:

One of the reasons California is likely stuck with Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass — or replacements just like them or worse — is that the sensible people have already fled or soon will.

FAR FROM THE FONT OF MISINFORMATION CLAIMED BY LEFTISTS, X IS PROBABLY THE SINGLE GREATEST COUNTER TO MISINFORMATION EVER CREATED:

GOOD LORD:

Real heroism is on display here — most of it unnecessary, if California would maintain its forests and scrub properly.

“SOCIALISM SEEKS EQUALITY IN MISERY; COMMUNISM SEEKS EQUALITY IN THE GRAVE.”

Progressivism seeks equality in absurdity.

UPDATE: Even that’s too kind. Socialism spares the ruling class the misery; communism spares them the premature grave. There’s less actual equality in societies run on leftist lines than anywhere else.

YOU GET MORE OF WHAT YOU INCENTIVIZE:

California voters have not yet gotten it good and hard enough yet. But they sure are working on it.

CRIMINAL INCOMPETENCE IN CALIFORNIA: Remember back in 2020 when California Gov. Gavin Newsom said “All these things are connected. This is a challenging time. But we’re up to this challenge.” He was referring to the impact of Climate Change on California, including the increased risk of wildfires.

Soooooo ….. according to Issues & Insights (I&I), that raises an interesting question, namely: “Four years later, Newsom is again blaming ‘climate change’ for the fires ravaging Los Angeles. But wait. If climate change really is to blame, why was California so obviously, so woefully, so inexcusably unprepared?”

There is no good ending in this one for Newsom or, for that matter, the Liberal-Left Establishment Elite that has ruled California in a one-party catastrophe for the Golden State’s 40 million residents.

 

WHEN YOU CAN’T SURVIVE THE SOFTEST OF SOFTBALL INTERVIEWS:

THREAD:

Read the whole thing but this part stands out: “‘You can’t be a revolutionary overnight. You have to have a process for it over time.’ That is exactly what these meetings do. They teach people this process. Paired with real skills that A LOT of people in my world of X talk about.”

And this from Andy Ngo’s intro: “Antifa cells are informal, but often effective, because they operate through exploitation of laws and having access to corrupt prosecutors, corrupt judges and well-funded pro-bono lawyers. They also rely on biased, lying media to not investigate or report accurately on them. (E.g., the legacy reports on the Pittsburgh Antifa bomb-making couple make no mention of their violent anarchist organizing.)”

It’s never a bad day to add more ammo to your stash.

MOVIE THEATER EMPLOYEES AGAINST MOVIES: Alamo Drafthouse Workers Seek to Cancel September 5.

A new petition with roughly 1,000 signatures hopes to cancel the film at the Alamo Drafthouse’s Brooklyn location. The chain runs three theaters in New York City.

Why?

September 5 is yet another attempt by the Western media to push its imperialist and racist agenda, manufacturing consent for the continued genocide and cultural decimation of Palestine and its peoples….We, NYC Alamo United, wholeheartedly condemn the Alamo’s willingness to profit off of the genocide of Palestine.

The cancellation attempt is hardly surprising. The modern Left routinely tries to censor art that doesn’t align with its worldview. Modern film festivals also steer clear of controversial topics in recent months.

This is worse on a few levels.

One, the petition features 101 signatures from NYC Alamo United, a union tied to the theater in question. They’ve brazenly trumpeted the petition on X, demanding their employer bend the knee.

When Netflix employees got the vapors over Dave Chappelle in 2022, the company’s CEO had to remind them, “We’re programming for a lot of diverse people who have different opinions and different tastes and different styles…If you find it hard to support our content breadth, Netflix may not be the best place for you.” Alamo employees should receive a similar reminder.

On the other hand, I thought the trailers for September 5 looked intriguing this fall. I appreciate Alamo employees further recommending the movie to me.

PLEASE, STOP — THEY WON’T LET ME VOTE FOR HIM AGAIN: ‘There is going to be shock and awe with executive orders.’

President-elect Donald Trump will issue “a blizzard of executive orders” as soon as he inaugurated Jan. 20, Sen. John Barrasso predicted Sunday.

Speaking on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” the Wyoming Republican said: “When President Trump takes office next Monday, there is going to be shock and awe with executive orders. A blizzard of executive orders on the economy, as well as on the border.”

Executive orders, for better or worse, allow a president to bypass Congress. But Barrasso, the new Senate majority whip, said that he expects Trump to also rely on the narrow Republican majority in the Senate and even more slender one in the House to get his agenda enacted.

Left unsaid: Most of what Trump’s EOs need to do is undo Biden’s EOs.

NO GOOD DECISION WAS EVER MADE IN A SWIVEL CHAIR: So, We’re Going to Screw up DDG(X) too? “In the last 15-months in the Red Sea have shown over and over that the US 5” and allies’ 76mm dual-use guns were essential to success. The Royal Navy is not all that happy that they decided to save money with their Type 45 destroyers by killing the anti-air capability of their 4.5” main gun.”

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: LA Fires Be Damned — Gavin Newsom Will Still Be the Dems’ Frontrunner in 2028. “The principal elected officials in the Los Angeles apocalyptic horror story are Mayor Karen Bass and Governor Gavin Newsom. The two have been running roughshod over an inherently bad situation in a clown car armored vehicle. In a just world, both of them would be pilloried in a town square by now.”

THAT WOULD HELP:
