Boo Hoo from Blue Barrett; Conehead Cries Over Being a Saloon Door
Timothy Birdnow
Seems we have touched a nerve.
Conehead is upset with being called a swing vote and of being flighty.
She swings like an old west saloon door. And her positions are all over the map; I would call that "flighty".
If you are frequently agreeing with the activist leftists on the court, if you find common ground wit "Leroy" Brown Jackson, then you are at best flighty and possibly downright stupid.
Conehead sided with the Left side on deportations. She sided with them over the Trump tariffs. She allowed border agents under Biden to cut through the wire fence put up by Texas to slow illegal aliens from invading the Lone Star State. She sided with the Libs in a case where the Biden EPA issued draconian air-pollution regulations. (This was the Orwellian-named "good neighbor provision" which would allow Democrat controlled states to set emissions standards in Republican states "downwind" of them.) In that case Barrett bitterly disagreed with the majority "What is the theoretical justification for using tradition that way?” she asked. Uh, ever heard of PRECEDENT you sill woman?
There have been multiple other examples of Barrett's shallow and people-pleasing judicial approach, but you get the point. She is a waffler, a great one, someone who should be working in a cheap morning diner.
But she doesn't want to be thought of that way.
It's odd how often we get Republican appointed Justices who turn their backs on the date who brung 'em and kiss media and Democrat fanny. David Souter was the king, of course, but there have been plenty of others (like Sandra Day O'Connor). This woman is just one more in a long line of Republican appointees who now want to make a legacy for herself by playing both sides against the middle, by triangulating, to get kudos from the press.
But in the end the person who strides the fence will wind up being impaled by the pickets. I think Conehead is realizing that now and isn't at all happy about the fact America has notices.

UFO REALLY!
Timothy Birdnow
Uh, balloons seem to defy gravity...
There would be absolutely no reason for some sort of extraterrestrial beings to visit the Earth. And the degree of difficulty to travel between stars would make it wholly impractical. Thinking space aliens would be interested in us is pure hubris; we just aren't that important to beings capable of doing this.
And we've never found any real concrete evidence of them. As Manhattan Project scientist Enrico Fermi asked "where are they?"
This newly released footage is still like photos of Nessie; it looks like something there but we don't have any really decent shots.
I suspect this is a red herring, a scam, a con, perpetrated by our government and likely other governments. We know at least some of the reasons for it, at least from the past; the Skunkworks, where they invented and tested experimental aircraft, was at Area 51 in Nevada and so they encouraged stories about aliens to hide the high tech aircraft they were testing. If they lied about it then why aren't they lying about it now?
A lot of this "evidence" may well be deep fakes; the government could pull that off.
I'll only believe these things are actual extraterrestrials when they make contact. Until then I'm going to remain quite skeptical. This thing has always had the appearance of a hoax to me. We know many of the crop circles were hoaxes too. So was Bigfoot.

I Don't Know Much About Art but I Know What I Like (or What is Beauty)
Timothy Birdnow
Art reflects the health of a culture. Ours has become completely buffugly.
Rowan Atkinson, as Mr. Bean in The Ultimate Disaster Movie, gives a pretty apt description of the painting that won the Archibald Prize, Australia's most prestigious award:
"a hideous old bat who looked like she had a cactus lodged up her backside.".
It is a painting of minority though so it must be high art!
Great art is almost non-existent in the modern West as our culture has turned to, well, cowpies. We used to see that in old Eastern Bloc artwork - complete loss of beauty or grace or meaning, but rather just utilitarianism or plain old ugly and crass. It's what liberalism causes. Beauty and grace cometh from the Almighty - dung cometh from the mind of unregenerate men.
And they can no longer even tell the difference between beauty and crap.
Our civilization is surely dying.

Was Hunter Biden Patronizing Sex Trafficking?
Timothy Birdnow
Well, lunchbox Joe certainly liked to grope and in fact was credibly accused by his own daughter of statutory rape of her as a child.
We KNOW Hunter hired hookers, and often. We KNOW he messed around with serious drugs. We KNOW he blew vast sums of money. Wouldn't know he's guilty of this in particular but if it walks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck.
Like father like son?

Glyphosate Causes Cancer is "Settled Science"?
Timothy Birdnow
Another hysterical post claiming glyphosate is the worst thing since the apple eaten by Adam and Eve.
And what of this?
Environmental activists changed the original report from the World Health Organization which had cleared glyphosate to declare it a danger to the public health.
This is more "settled science" that the Left spouts to silence any critics. The fact is glyphosate was used for a long, long time and only now do we suddenly believe it is harmful - and that with little in the way of good substitutes.
A commenter had this to say about the hysteria over glyphosate:
John Dale Dunn MD JD
The toxicology that is used by these scaremongers is junk science. glyphosate is a herbicide and it's mechanism of action doesn't cause cancer or any other medical diseases.
Studies using "associations" don't prove anything--commenters below are believers in the scare. Glyphosate is an essential part of modern ag practice--improving yields by reducing weeds.
Doctor Dunn is correct. This article relies almost entirely on the WHO - you know, the same jerks who promoted the Covid insanity - and some obviously tainted organizations with vested interests. The only credible source he cites is Dr. Robert Malone, who is certainly someone worth paying attention to but he's hardly all-knowing.
The fact is this glyphosate campaign bears all the earmarks of the Climate Change scam or the Covidiocy. It has followed the exact same pattern and of course the proponents whisper darkly about "the Bayer Industrialist Complex" when in fact Baer isn't even an American company so there is little reason for the U.S. government to bend over backwards and hide evidence that Roundup hurts people. This is just another "big oil money" accusation that upon reflection is ridiculous.
Many in the MAHA movement are suffering from rattling syndrome; the screws are rattling about inside their noggins.
I've seen this sort of alarmism many, many times before and know a con job when I see one.
I couldn't care less if we use Roundup or something different, but I DO care about the Truth - and the collateral damage caused by such campaigns. This will cost Americans more for food, no question. And it will hurt small farmers who rely on this herbicide.
As a slight aside there was a product made to end dandruff called Herpacide back in the end of the 19th and early 20th centuries. My grandfather said it caused SOME hairs to grow out of control, giving you a crazy hairdo and inspiring this song mocking the product:
Sung to the tune of Harrigan:
H E R P I C I D spells Herpicide
That's the kind of stuff that makes your hair grow
makes you look exactly like a scarecrow
H E R P I C I D you see
first you rub it then you crub it
then you scrub it then you rub and
and there's hair again, on me!

Iran's Proxy War in Africa
Timothy Birdnow
In other Iran news it turns out the Islamic Republic has been terrorizing more than just Middle Eastern states:
There is African blood on Barack Hussein Obama's hands. Obama funded the Mullahs, who funded this.
Here's a little taste from the Gateway Pundit:
The April 2026 arrest of Shamim Mafi at Los Angeles International Airport, charged with brokering a $72.5 million Iranian arms deal to Sudan, exposed more than a single transaction. It opened a window onto a continental network the IRGC has been building for four decades, one that now spans North Africa, the Horn, the Sahel, and southern Africa.
In North Africa, the IRGC has applied its proxy model to the Western Sahara conflict. The Polisario Front, formally the Popular Front for the Liberation of Saguia el-Hamra and Río de Oro, is an Algerian-backed separatist movement founded in 1973. The group claims sovereignty over Western Sahara, a territory Morocco has administered since Spain’s withdrawal in 1975. A UN-brokered ceasefire in 1991 ended open guerrilla warfare, but a promised independence referendum was never held.
Today, the Polisario controls roughly 20 percent of the territory from desert camps in Tindouf, Algeria. It operates a self-declared government-in-exile called the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic. The United States recognized Western Sahara as Moroccan territory in 2020.
Iran’s entry transformed this Cold War-era territorial dispute into a live proxy conflict. In 2018, Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita accused Iran and Hezbollah of training and arming Polisario fighters through the Iranian embassy in Algeria. He stated that Hezbollah had supplied the group with SAM-9, SAM-11, and Strela surface-to-air missiles. The allegations prompted Morocco to sever diplomatic ties with Tehran.
The relationship has since deepened into direct military deployment. Regional and European security officials told the Washington Post that Iran trained hundreds of Polisario fighters who were later detained by Syria’s new security forces after fighting alongside the Assad regime. Among those detained were an Algerian army general and approximately 500 soldiers. Syrian Interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa rejected Algerian requests for their release, stating that all captured fighters would face prosecution for war crimes and crimes against civilians.
Fahed al-Masri, head of Syria’s National Salvation Front, told Yedioth Ahronoth that 200 Polisario fighters trained by Iran had been deployed to sensitive military positions near the Israeli border. In 2022, Polisario Interior Minister Omar Mansour publicly disclosed that fighters were training in the assembly and operation of armed drones. Open-source weapons analysts also confirmed that imagery posted on Polisario social media channels showed Iranian-type munitions.
The episode exposed an operational triangle linking Algiers, the Tindouf camps, and the Syrian front. It confirmed that the Polisario functions not merely as a separatist movement, but as a deployable component of Iran’s Axis of Resistance. Senator Ted Cruz introduced legislation in March 2026 to designate the group as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. Cruz stated that Iran was attempting to turn the Polisario into "the Houthis of West Africa.”
Iran is a puss-filled boil that was in the process of bursting and about to make the whole world septic. Thank God Donald Trump decided to take action.
Violence against Christians has been ramping up all over Africa but especially in the northwest (particulary in Nigeria) but in West Africa too. Christians are being murdered at an amazing rate (with little complaint coming from Pope Leo or anyone else in the West) and one must wonder about that. No doubt it ties in with the Iranians.

UAE Joins Us in War with Iran
Timothy Birdnow
The United Arab Emirates has quietly gone to war alongside us against Iran.
This was inevitable; Iran lobbed missile after missile at them. Now the UAE is not going to take it anymore.
How long before the other Gulf states join us? Before China or India join us?
It's sad; we have a better ally in the UAE than in Europe or Australia or Canada.

Scumbag Brennan Admits the Deep State
Timothy Birdnow
Straight from the horses a, er, mouth:
Brennan just admitted the existence of the Deep State and that they are trying to negate the policies of the President, the policies voted for by the public.
FTA:
"What still exists in the system to slow that down?” Nicolle Wallace asked Obama’s CIA Director John Brennan.
"There’s still a legion of professionals in the law enforcement environment, Department of Justice, as well as the CIA and other places,” Brennan said.
"The ones who are refusing to follow politically motivated prosecutions, those who are refusing to support any type of political activities in the part of the Trump administration that are inconsistent with the authorities, the responsibilities of the intelligence community, law enforcement community, and Department of Justice,” Brennan confidently said to Nicolle Wallace.
"So, we have to rely on these individuals to stand up to their professional responsibilities and also to courts, to the judges…” Brennan said.
Brennan continued, "What has happened to our institutions is really going to have longstanding damage to these institutions.”
AS to that last I say GREAT! What we had was a cabal of unelected dirtbags overriding the will of the People and the Constitution at the same time. We had an oligarchy, the very thing the Left is not trying to accuse the Trump Administration of being. A bunch of hidden little monarchs who ran the country as THEY saw fit as opposed to how we see fit.
That is why we need to win in '28 again and continue to cleanse the citadels of power from these vermin.
I hope and pray we find an obvious act of treason by Muzzie John and can convict him - and throw the book at him. We need to make an example of someone and the Communist Muslim former CIA scumbag is perhaps the best man to use for that purpose.
A death penalty or life imprisonment would go a long way to cowing this deep state.
For the record John Brennan admitted to voting for the Communist Party USA and was amazed the CIA hired him anyway. And there have long been rumors he converted to Islam - he certainly has a soft spot for it. Now he's admitting to being part of a star chamber, a cabal that makes it's own policy and undermines the policies the American People have demanded.
Oh, the DOJ is interrogating CIA bigwigs to get to the bottom of what Mr. Brennan knew and when he knew it.
The walls are closing in on Muzzie John.

Toldja So!
Timothy Birdnow
Toldja so!
No fewer than 40 of these labs were in the Ukraine.
I said when the Russo-Ukrainian war broke out that this was one of the reasons; we would be completely furious to learn that, say, Mexico was running biological research labs with the potential to make deadly weapons right along our border and we would take steps to stop it up to and including military action. Russia could not afford to have 40 U.S. funded biological labs right next door to them.
The Soviets had an aggressive biological weapons program through the Cold War (even though Richard Nixon banned ours after learning of the true horrors being created in our labs). Putin, an old KGB, understands what can be done with these diseases.
The old DOD was paying for this research under a program designed to get rid of old Soviet weapons. Gain of Function research was intended to purposely mutate diseases to study what was produced on the theory that we could " get out in front" of a natural or purposeful mutation.
The lab leak (if it WAS a leak and not an attempt to meddle with the American elections as I rather suspect the Chicoms and people in this country sought to do by releasing a nasty cold virus to stampede the public into rejecting the Administration) proved that these sorts of programs cannot be administered responsibly.
So imagine what the Russians are thinking. They knew Covid 19 was a lab leak. They knew the Americans had funded it. They knew we were also funding forty labs right on their border and that if a disease could escape and cause a pandemic or be purposely released then Russia was ground zero. Remember; Ukraine was the original source of Crimean Congo Hemmorhagic Fever, a terrifying disease that causes people to bleed out of every opening in their bodies (resembling Marburg or the Ebolas but not related to them.) It is logical to assume these labs were playing with CCHF, among other things, and they would quickly overrun all of Russia.
I have no doubt this went into the calculus behind the Russian invasion of Ukraine. NOT the only reason, or maybe even the primary reason, but it was certainly a concern.
Anyway Tulsi Gabbard vows to root these things out. She says:
"Yet despite these obvious dangers, politicians, so-called health professionals, like Dr. Fauci, and entities within the Biden administration’s national security team lied to the American people about the existence of these US-funded and supported biolabs and threatened those who attempted to expose the truth.”
And this should never, ever have been kept from the public.
The Biden Administration, in usual Pinocchio fashion, denied any U.S. involvement:
"The Biden administration released a statement insisting that "the United States does not own or operate any chemical or biological laboratories in Ukraine.”
And we were told the Russians just invaded the Ukraine for no good reason whatsoever. Biden and the other Leftists wanted us deeply involved in a war that was at least to a degree of our own making. Why were they so eager to get into a quagmire in Eastern Europe? Could it be to hide these labs?
Rand Paul@RandPaulThe DOJ may never act, but the American people know the truth: Fauci misled and defrauded this country. I won't stop uncovering the truth around the great COVID cover-up. That's why I will have a whistleblower testify before my committee this Wednesday.
Fauci can't be indicted, even now as the statute of limitations has run out (we've got to do something about that; these statute of limitations are WAY too short and that by design, to protect the Ruling Class) but we can at least ruin his financial opportunities and make his name one nobody uses without spitting on the ground. To a narcissist like Fauci that would be worse than a prison sentence.
At any rate President Trump has taken steps to end this practice, and he's also allowed the truth to be known. Thank the Good Lord; if Biden or Kamala had won this would be ongoing and eventually something REALLY nasty would come out - and the public, soured by the lies of Covid, would think it another scam and ignore it, perhaps until too late.
The Black Death killed a quarter of the entire population of Europe and was the end of the Middle Ages; society changed immensely after it, with cheap land leading to tenant farmers becoming owners, with labor shortages leading to the inevitable rise of truly free markets as employers no longer just told serfs what to do but had to bid for workers, with the rise of a middle class. The rather ossified Catholic Church was weakened and so Protestantism rose, as did it's afterbirth, the Liberal Movement which triumphed by the nineteenth century. Another serious pandemic would be profound and we have no idea where it would lead, but probably nowhere good. We are already overdependent on macines and this will metastasize the rise of ai and other such things.
We've long played a dangerous game with viruses and bacterium. Now we are playing with DNA, mixing animal species DNA together - even into ourselves. All creatures have diseases that evolved to prey upon them, and by mixing DNA we are opening the door to mutations of zoological diseases that could become human pathogens. I lay awake at night worrying about THAT sometimes. And with outright genetic manipulaton of pathogens...
Some day.

And They Will Know that I Am the Lord: Lightning Almost Strikes Ericka Kirk Protesters
Timothy Birdnow
Job 36:32 – "He fills his hands with lightning and commands it to strike its mark.”
2 Peter 2:12
But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
A gang of brute beasts gathered outside of Hillsdale College recently to protest Ericka Kirk for daring to speak at a commencement at the conservative Christian college. God shook the Heavens and the Earth to make it quite clear to them that it is HE who is in charge.
Lightning struck a tree mere feet from the protesters.
According to the article:
WILX-TV reported that Saturday’s protest, which consisted of a few dozen people, was organized by a group called Hope in Action.
A post on the group’s Facebook page listed several reasons for their protest of Erika Kirk, including saying that Turning Point USA "is a national right-wing political machine organizing young people into MAGA politics, anti-trans rhetoric, anti-DEI backlash, and culture-war extremism.”
"We are protesting the normalization of extremism. Giving honorary degrees and commencement platforms to figures tied to this movement tells students and the public that hate, disinformation, and authoritarian politics deserve celebration,” the group said.
Hope in Action’s Allison Bader told WILX, "We are here to make sure it is clear that we are not going to accept blatant racism, homophobia, and sexism in our communities any longer, and they have been continuously perpetuating Turning Point USA and Project 2025, and we want to put an end to that.”
end
So it's now hate, disinformation, and authoritarian politics, racism, homophobia, and sexism to simply talk to young people who havre been steeped in the antithesis all their lives but particularly at the universities. And it's just fine to protest the widow of a man who was murdered for simply engaging in conversation.
Looks to me like God sees it differently.
These Chrisophobes are driven by hatred, hatred against God and against anyone who serves God. Do notice that everything they said about Ericka Kirk and TPUSA describes them to a T. THEY are the ones who are racist, sexist, homophobic, authoritarian, disinformative, and hateful. It is THEY who assassinated Charlie and celebrated his death, just as the Book of Revelations says they will celebrate the two prophets sent by God being killed in the Tribulation. THEY are the ones who promote government power and control of the individual. It is THEY who lie and promote lies and stifle alternate views. It is THEY who promote racial policies that keep blacks poor and ill-educated and promote violence in their communities. It is THEY who push gullible young women into becoming feminists, placing them in an eternal war against "the Patriarchy" meaning men and against their own femininity. Who is the sexist? And homophobia? Americans are not afraid of homosexuals and in fact sympathize with them by and large. But Americans like Charlie and Ericka Kirk also realize that it is a hard life, a very unhappy life, and out of love they hope to spare some children from going down that tortured path. Oh, and they worry about their eternal souls, something the oh-so-compassionate leftists couldn't care less
Bs about.
So who are the homophobes? Who better represents each and every complaint prompting this protest?
Who murdered Charlie because they could not bear his words? How does that make HIM the authoritarian?
I think God Almighty just spoke to these people and gave them a grave warning; they had better listen. God only warns so much before He acts and it is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of the Living God.
During the War of 1812 the British took Washington D.C. and burned the place. But they lost that battle in a big way, and fled in terror. Know why? In their own words, God Himself was fighting against them. Storms rose, a tornadoe moved straight through their camp (an unseasonable tornado at that) and some of them were struck by lightning. Many of the career officers there were terrified because they understood what had happened, and the United States became a legend among the nations as a place protected by God. Many years later it was remembered by Otto Von Bismarck:
"There is a Providence that protects idiots, drunkards, children and the United States of America. "
And that same Providence protects His special prophets. Charlie and Ericka were such and God will not be mocked.
Ezekial 25:17 I will execute great vengeance against them with furious reproof. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I lay My vengeance upon them.'

Why Callais is a Huge Ruling
Timothy Birdnow
The Callais ruling by the Supreme Court is far, far more important than we realize.
If the title of this column seems to exaggerate the potential impact of last week’s Supreme Court ruling in Louisiana v. Callais, it’s probably because most political pundits have focused on its effect below the Mason-Dixon Line. But the majority-minority congressional districts that will need to be altered pursuant to the Court’s ruling are far more pervasive than most realize. Ballotpedia, using data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2024 American Community Survey, estimates that these racially gerrymandered districts account for 148 seats in the House of Representatives. This is about one third of the House’s 435 districts and 122 of them are held by Democrats — more than half of their 212 seats.
Which means the Democrats will face a bloodbath in years to come as they will be shown as the minority party they always have been. The "razor thin margins" have always been an illusion.
The article continues:
This will be no small undertaking. According to Ballotpedia, the 148 majority-minority districts are spread across no fewer than 28 states. And not all of them have been mandated by the courts pursuant to the VRA, though the "experts” are curiously vague concerning exactly how many have been gerrymandered as the result of lawsuits filed by Democrat-aligned law firms. It’s probable that some majority-minority districts are organic, particularly in the southwest, and it should be remembered that the Supreme Court ruled, in Rucho v. Common Cause, that strictly partisan redistricting is "non-justiciable” by federal courts. Yet it is a little suspicious that over half of the Democrats in the House represent majority-minority districts.
It is even more curious that Democrats represent every single majority-minority district where black voters constitute the majority. Stranger still is the voting pattern of districts dominated by Asians. Is it plausible that not one Republican represents a majority-minority district in which Asians make up the majority? In districts where Hispanics and Latinos make up the majority of voters, there are a few GOP representatives, but most of these districts are represented by Democrats. And then there are the districts in which "coalitions” of Black, Latino, and Asian voters are dumped into single legally protected majorities. If the Democrats are reduced to this kind of skulduggery they’re done. Can you hear the fear from the ACLU?
This could wind up being a VERY big deal. Maybe not so much in the next election as down the road. Racial gerrymandering was one of the principle tools used by Democrats to acquire and hold power.

Starmer Blames Brexit for Economic Malaise HE Caused
more...
Timothy Birdnow
Keir Starmer blames ever bad thing that happened to Britain on Brexit and Nigel Farage.
: "’I want to remind you what Nigel Farage said about Brexit. He said it would make us richer. Wrong. It made us poorer. He said it would reduce migration. Wrong. Migration went through the roof. He said it would make us more secure. Wrong again. He just fled the scene and now he will talk about almost anything other the consequences of what they delivered. He is not just a grifter, he’s a chancer.”
So typically leftist; blame the guy trying to save the country for what you yourself caused.
If Britain is poorer it's not because of Brexit but because of terrible economic policy advocated by Labour and the Conservative fellow travelers. If didn't reduce migration because Labour and the Conservative fellow travelers refused to enforce immigration law. I'm not sure how Stammer, er, Starmer thinks Britain is any less safe now then when it was part of the Euro-blob, but he just says it so it must be true!
As always with the Left he accuses others of what he himself is most guilty.
The British elites never forgave their people for leaving the E.U. and have been utterly determined to get them back in. They want to punish the citizenry by doubling down on the policies that drove the people to reject union with Europe in the first place.
BTW despite the Covid lockdowns and the vast economic damage done by Covid the British economy is about in the same position as it was in 2015. despite a large loss from Covid.
The article states:
"Despite the economic headwinds of Brexit and COVID-19, the UK economy is expected to grow by four percent in 2021, and then by 7.3 percent in 2022. Much of this growth will be driven by the British economy returning to full strength after lockdown ends, which may be as early as Summer 2021 due to the UK's successful vaccination drive. This is in contrast to the rest of Europe whose vaccination response has been hindered by supply issues, vaccine hesitancy, and a generally slow bureaucracy."
And yet last year it grew at a pathetic rate, barely over 1%. Starmer and Labour are trying to pin the blame on Brexit but in reality it is because the socialist Labour party took over and has implemented policies that are ruining the economy. The public sees that, among other things, which is why Labour got creamed in municipal elections.
As Margaret Thatcher said, the problem with socialism is eventually you run out of other people's money. That's precisely what has happened in lesser Britain.

Minnesota's "Voucher" System
Timothy Birdnow
Oh, I'm sure nothing at all could go wrong with this.
Minnesota allows someone to have another person vouch for them when doing same day registration rather than force them to provide proof of residency.
You just have to get someone to say "yeah; I know him and he lives here".
I mean, we all KNOW that nobody (except maybe Republicans) would abuse that system, don't we!

Democrats Plot Massive Fraud in November
Timothy Birdnow
Chuck Schumer has hired Eric Holder and Marc Elias (the man who masterminded the 2020 election theft) to run a campaign for "voter integrity" meaning he intends to cheat in the upcoming midterms and President Trump has called him out for this plot.
Trump said, in his usual fashion on Truth Social:
"Palestinian Chuck Schumer is hiring Eric Holder, famous for handing guns to Mexican cartels under the Barack Hussein Obama administration, as part of a Democrat-led 'Election Integrity Group' that will no doubt try to suppress Republican voters, and interfere in our Elections,"
That is EXACTLY what this is about. They will no doubt use lawfare, going to pet judges to suppress Republican votes or to allow polls to stay open late or any other dirty tricks they can pull.
Eric Holder was the self-proclaimed "wing man" of Barack Obama and he prosecuted political opponents of the BHO, plus was involved in all manner of shady things (like Fast and Furious and the "Russian collusion" hoax). Marc Elias is one of the most corrupt and just plain evil Democrats on this Earth who was behind almost every form of lawfare against Donald Trump.
Bringing these two together is rather like O.J. Simpson assembling his "dream team" to steal an acquittal.
And the GOP has shown itself feckless as ever and while Mr. Trump says we are ready for them I have my doubts. The current RNC seems to be just as bad as it ever has been.
I sure hope Trump's team knows what it is doing. They are in the NFL now.

Va. Dems Advised to Fire whole State Supreme Court
Timothy Birdnow
Power is all that matters to the Left and they will do anything to retain it.
Here is a proposal by a Leftist lawy professor to "fix" the recent state supreme court decision striking down Virginia's gerrymandered districts by simply lowering the age of retirement to 53, which was the youngest age of the justices who voted to overturn the constitutional amendment allowing the Democrats to gerrymander.
So basically they want to use a loophole - the power of the state legislature to set a retirement age - to fire entire supreme court and start fresh with a bunch of political hacks chosen by the Democrats.
Basically they want to burn everything down.
While this is a long shot and will likely not be done it's entirely within the sphere of insanity that dominates a party absolutely determined to seize and keep power at any and all costs.
This scheme would put this retirement age (down from 73) into action immediately if it is passed through appropriations rather than through the normal channels.
The author - Quinn Yeargain - is an Associate Professor of Law at the Michigan State University College of Law and 1855 Professor of the Law of Democracy, whatever THAT means.

Europe: a Continent of Children
Timothy Birdnow
The Europeans really are crying little babies.
Now that they have asserted themselves and told the U.S. they won't play with us they are crawling to their new bestie - Vladimir Putin.
This of course is utter nonsense and the Europeans should have been talking to Putin all along. It was THEY who wanted to get into this war in the Ukraine, not the U.S. They were the ones who made Putin out to be Hitler and Russia Nazi Germany. But now that the U.S. is rethinking our relationship with a bunch of erstwhile friends who won't stand with us even when it is to their benefit they are talking about a "separate peace" with the Russians as if that is going to frighten us.
News flash Euroweenies; we don't care. Russia is not the old Soviet Union and we no longer need a coalition to contain her. She's your problem, not ours.
At any rate there isn't really a story here; just an idle threat by Europe to "talk with Putin" something that should have happened long ago.
Europe is like a teenager trying to pretend they are grownups and angry when their parent tells them to take out the trash. They want pride in themselves but are completely unwilling to do anything to actually justify that pride. They are still entirely dependent on Daddy and angry Daddy still treats them like the spoiled brats they are. They waste money on democratic socialism and enjoy their lives while their benefactor works and provides for their safety. Juvenile through and through.

Enriched Uranium Taken Out of Venezuela
Timothy Birdnow
I had no idea whatsoever!
FTA:
WHAT HAPPENED: The U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) announced the removal of 13.5 kilograms of enriched uranium from Venezuela’s RV-1 research reactor. The uranium, which had been unused since the reactor ceased operations in 1991, was securely transported to the U.S. for processing and reuse.
DETAIL: Officials said 13.5 kilograms, or roughly 30 pounds, of uranium enriched above the 20 percent threshold was safely packaged and transported about 100 miles across Venezuela before being shipped by a specialized British nuclear transport vessel to the United States. The material arrived in early May and was transferred to the Savannah River Site in South Carolina, where it will be processed for reuse in advanced nuclear energy programs. The National Nuclear Security Administration described the operation as a significant nonproliferation success, noting the uranium had remained at the reactor since research activities ended in 1991. NNSA Administrator Brandon Williams credited President Donald J. Trump’s leadership for accelerating the mission, saying work that normally would have taken years was completed within months. The operation comes amid renewed diplomatic and commercial ties between Washington and Caracas following Trump’s ouster of Venezuela’s Marxist dictator, Nicolas Maduro.
While this had been sitting around for some time it could easily have been turned into a couple of nukes if Maduro had been able to further enrich it. This goes to show how nuclear weapons are possible for anyone with nuclear reactors.
I wonder; did Trump strike Venezuela and take out Maduro because of this? Did the intelligence community think they were about to pursue a nuclear device?
And if Venezuela was reasonably close to a bomb without even trying what does that say about Iran, which WAS trying?
