Payback's a bitch!
BREAKING: The 51 former intel officials who engaged in brazen election interference and lied about the Hunter Biden laptop, have now been banned from entering federal buildings.
It should be noted that this will likely negatively impact their consulting and lobbying grift. pic.twitter.com/0lzi263kfc

This from Tony Heller at Realclimate:
During 1953, Harrisburg, Illinois had 100 days over 90F. Last year they 42 days over 90F. The percent of hot afternoons has plummeted in Illinois over the past ninety years.

Human error!
The Inside Scoop About How Covid and Affirmative Action Policy Gutted Aviation Safety
Back around 1990 I took the air traffic controller exam. I did VERY well, and the letter they sent me said I was absolutely qualified to be an air traffic controller BUT there was a hiring freeze, and any new controllers hired would have to be over a hundred percent on the test (which was possible because ex military got ten points automatically - fair enough - but women and minorities did likewise.) So I never did get the job. I was squeezed out by political correctness.
So someone with a poorer score than me probably got the job I was qualified to do. This has been going on for a LONG time.
It's probably for the best; I'm not a calm person and I might have cracked under the pressure (although I'm usually very calm in an emergency situation, oddly enough). But that's not the point; the point is I was bumped because of the color of my skin and the shape of my body.
DEI just metastasized this. It is deadly, as it is now being proven. We have to go back to a merit-based system. Or many more will die.
But to the Left you have to break a few eggs to make an omelet...

Probably. But certainly it will never wind up taking Obama down. Holder maybe.
Unearthed video: Did Obama and Eric Holder get paid to rig court cases?
Eric Holder should have been pursued to the ends of the Earth by the GOP. He was corrupt and he abused his power. There were multiple examples of criminality by Holder. But the GOP wouldn't even convict him of Contempt of Congress for doing what they sent Steve Bannon to prison for doing. Worse actually. They listen to Karl Rove still and let bygones be bygones. That is foolish; if someone transgresses the law they should be punished. Leave an enemy at your back and you will regret it. Holder was and is an enemy.
Prosecuting him wouldn't be retribution, it would be justice.
From the Revolver article:
The video was posted by an account "Against the Giants,” and it exposes a shocking timeline that suggests Big Tech, the Obama regime, and his DOJ may have colluded to rig our nation’s courts.
The building blocks of the left’s lawfare?
This disturbing story centers around a small, relatively unknown innovator who developed some cutting-edge wireless technology—and then had it allegedly stolen by Qualcomm.
When he sued for patent infringement, the court ruled in his favor.
But here’s where things get deeply disturbing and very interesting…
In shocking twist, that decision was mysteriously overturned right after Eric Holder’s DOJ was caught tracking the case. Suspicious? Yes. But there’s more…
The White House Executive Office was apparently busted visiting the inventor’s website, specifically looking at information related to the lawsuit against Qualcomm.
This has many people asking some very serious questions: Did the company Qualcomm grease the wheels inside the Obama regime to protect their billion-dollar empire?
Many would argue that the dots are connecting fast and furious (pun intended).
And to make matters more curious, Qualcomm’s founder met with Obama White House officials just days before the case was overturned, raising more concerns that perhaps campaign cash or political favors may have been exchanged for some favorable court rulings.
Take a look for yourself:

If this is true, it means Big Tech and the government worked together to rig the courts, crush competition, and sell out American innovators—and they did it while China swooped in and profited from stolen US technology."
We know this sort of thing goes on and has through history. We've seen some very suspicious actions by, say, the Clinton Administration back then (but the public didn't want to pursue it any more than they wanted to pursue the Obama folks). But if we find this is true then it at least goes back to Holder.
I suspect it's just the tip of the iceberg too.
Since these people went after Donald Trump they opened the door to politics by lawsuit and we must respond in kind. Mutual Assured Destruction. The only way to end this is to make it clear nobody comes out ahead in the end. The GOP has never understood that. They think if they unilaterally disarm the other side will too. Like the old Nuclear Feeze crowd, they believe we are all the same. We aren't. Until we disarm the Democrats they will keep coming. We can take this weapon out of their hands by employing it ourselves. In fact it's the only way to stop it.
Eric Holder was Obama's "wing man" and has a lot of things he can be charged with. Time for the Republicans to charge!

Time to bring back the old women driver jokes...
Fox News identifies helicopter pilots involved in crash… female pilot in command, male crew chief…
Back in the 90's my brother taught college level history courses on Navy ships. There was a big push to get female aviators into the service. They changed the rules for these chicks. They called "downs" on them less (a down is an observational demerit for a bad landing) and gave the gals extra downs before they were benched. There was an incident that was a major news story where this allegedly ace woman pilot crashed. Brian got the story from people directly involved; she was crying because she was having trouble and eventually turned off her radio so the controllers couldn't hear her freakout. In other words she may have had the technical skill but lacked the emotional control needed for this top gun slot.
I get it. I always thought I'd have made a great pilot too but would have washed out as a fighter pilot because I wouldn't be able to keep my head under the pressure, I don't believe. But that's why I would never have tried for that in the first place. As Clint Eastwood said "a man has to know his limitations". Sadly women and minorities don't and are encouraged not to under the theory that there is a white male patriarchy and So many are pushed into roles for which they just aren't suited. I strongly suspect this chopper pilot is one example.
There were plenty of other examples of this. My brother told me women techs were assigned grunts to carry their toolboxes (which weigh a hundred pounds) since they obviously were not strong enough. So it takes two people to do the job one MAN can do. And one of them is a man.
You don't win wars that way. It becomes a hobby activity, like Junior ROTC.
And the exercise regimen had a lower bar. Women didn't have to do chinups. They had to do fewer situps and other such exercises.
Just because somebody wants to do something doesn't automatically mean they have a right to do it. I'll never play in the NBA. I'd make a lousy politician (can't remember names and faces and don't like to gladhand). I would bomb as a mathematician. I have come to terms with that; it's who and what I am and God has blessed me with different talents. I'll think of one of them by tomorrow, maybe.
The point is women can have a place in the military, but we've got to be realistic. If they are going for a given job they MUST be equally qualified. This notion of women for women's sake, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, is batcrap crazy. We don't have to balance testosterone with estrogen, nor light skin pigmentation with heavier. It MUST be based on job performance. Nothing else should matter.(Well, almost nothing; an 85 year old man may be competent until you put them in a certain situation. Age can be taken into account because abilities decline and that is often invisible to us. I wouldn't feel very confident having an old guy show up to rescue me from a burning building...)
Anyway, while the old "women driver" stereotype is not true of everyone, it became a stereotype precisely because there was a KERNAL of truth in it at one time. Why? Probably because women had less experience doing it when they started driving. But men are recognized as better at mechanical things than women and always have been. Men and women are different. The Left refuses to recognize any distinction, except the idea of "male toxicity". All one need do is look at children and how they play. The Left's answer is to make children play just the same, and they think it's purely a learned behavior. But it's not; it's natural.
These sorts of thing will continue as long as we continue to place a wrong-headed and unnatural ideology above human life.
