Adding Insult
Saint Paul “porch pirate” – one of the plague of demi-human locusts that have been stealing delivery packages from peoples’ porches – sinks to a new(er) low: leaving a snorky “thank you” note to their victim: As if stealing a package from someone’s front steps isn’t cruel enough, a porch pirate in St. Paul added…

Unserious
Articles like these are the reason women in the sciences are not taken seriously. Carmen and Leonie have PhDs in computer science. Divya is a student of geology on other planets. They’re probably brilliant people in their fields but when they write stuff like this, they remind everyone of the shirt incident, which reinforces the reason nobody wants…

You’ve Been Progsplained!
Ivy League academic, continuing Big Left’s urge to appropriate and pervert every aspect of society no matter how innocuous or innocent, progsplains that the classic claymation Christmas special Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer is actually classically “queer”, and that conservatives who object just don’t understand Christmas: “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” is a “queer” icon whether…

Why Are The Democrats Pushing Impeachment So Hard?

Barely-Rhetorical Questions

Generic Holiday Product
There used to be more holidays. Nowadays, we’re down to a few Sales Events. I miss holidays.George Washington had his own birthday holiday. We gave Valentines to classmates, planted a tree in the yard on Arbor Day, and hung construction paper cones on doorknobs on May Basket Day. The high school band marched in the…

Chanting Points Memo: Let’s Make A List, 2020 Edition
I noted the other day that “progressives” seem to have only read-only memory; once they get a point in their heads, regardless of veracity or logic, it just stays there. It has literally gotten to the point where the politicians and pundits of Big Left don’t even bother trying to convince people with any basis…

Hate Is Everywhere
Apparently, a judge following the law as written commits some kind of hate crime. Wisconsin legislature should look into this.Joe doakes The left sees “hate crimes” a lot like Michael Scott does: And as Berg’s

This Is Every Progressive, Every Time
Remember – when Progs soothingly, condescendingly coo “nobody’s coming to take your guns”, there’s always, always and implied “until we can get away with it” at the end. Democrat in Virginia think they can get away with it. Now, America’s real #resistance, in the form of 75 Virginia counties, have declared themselves “Second Amendment Sanctuaries”, with no…

Tigers In The Snow
Today is the 75th anniversary of the beginning of the Battle of the Bulge – Hitler’s last great counterattack in the West in World War 2. The winter of 1944 had been one of the coldest on record – cold enough, said Steven Ambrose, to impress even the kids from North Dakota and Montana. The…

Just For A Moment, Let’s Cut The Crap
The media rolls its eyes and plays innocent about the attempted coup going on in Washington. They’re just reporting the news, maaaaaaaaaaaaaan: Mollie Hemingway from Federalist points out the elephant in the room: You could hear it, in plain sight (as it were), in November of 2016, when reps from the NYTimes and WaPo newsrooms. No. Seriously. Listen to…

“Transgressive”
Brazilian “comedy” features a gay Jesus: The Brazilian comedy group Porta dos Fundos (which literally translates to “back door”) appears to have a real hang-up about our Lord and Christianity in general. Last December the group released The Last Hangover on Netflix, a movie that blends Christ’s Last Supper with his disciples and The Hangover into a night of…

The Progressive Totalitarian Impulse
Democrats contemplate asking the National Guard to seize firearms from citizens. And the leader of the Guard doesn’t rule it out. Leaving aside the irony of Democrats endorsing one form of sanctuary city (illegal immigrants) while threatening to crush another form of sanctuary city (guns), this might make an interesting test case.Will Virginians who serve in the National…

Is She Perchance Samoan?
You’re a radical “Progressive”. As such, you pretty much despise most of the things that allow you the wealth and leisure to be a radical “Progressive”: commerce, the free market, individual wealth (beyond whatever is needed to give you everything you want), and the cheap, safe energy, whether petroleum or fission-based, that makes that wealth…

Yet Again
You could almost sense it, coming everywhere from Democrats on social media to progs in the dead tree media; this was going to be the UK election that set so much right in the UK, undoing Brexit and re-setting the left’s agenda… …and telegraphing the public mood about Trump and the rise of other populists…

Christmas Deadline
Before Christmas, Democrats in Congress expect to vote on articles of impeachment to remove President Trump from office.Before Christmas, funding for the federal government runs out, unless President Trump agrees to continue the funding.This creates an opportunity for President Trump. I can’t wait to see how he uses it.Joe Doakes Me too. Unlike the Boehner-era…

Mode$t Propo$al$
A friend of the blog emails a PiPress story in which it’s noted the Twin Cities ranks 92 out of 100 metro areas for racial equity, according to the NAACP: They dont even give us the official name of this survey so to properly look it up?Of course I find a link to how more…

Wake Me Up When December Ends
I hate December. It’s cold. It’s dark. And all my year-end bills come due. Annual attorney recertification, vacation condo maintenance fee, hangar rent, Christmas bills plus all the usual expenses. It’s that wallop at the end of the year that annoys me. I hate to see money going out of the checkbook, it should be…

“The Simple Fact”
Start running down the list of bald-faced lies – stuff no rational person believes – that Democrat politicians say with a straight face, straight into the camera, over and over and over. It’s a long, long list: “Trump’s election was illegitimate!” “We’ve got more ‘gun violence’ now than ever before!” “The ‘Republican War on Women’”…

When The Title Says It All
Goons disrupt a showing of Dennis Prager and Adam Carolla’s No Safe Spaces, in – where else – California: “After all of the previews and ads were over and the movie was just starting, two thugs sporting hoodies, masks, sunglasses and carrying huge duffel bags ran, not walked, up the aisle and sat at the…

“Good Faith”
Even if the FBI had a good faith basis to open the inquiry, it did not have one to continue the inquiry. And what about all those unmaskings? FBI wiretaps Trump campaign, gives information to Susan Rice in the White House, and it ended there? Nothing got forwarded to the Hillary campaign? Do we believe that?Joe…

Cultural Cleansing
“Progressive” bosses won’t hire Trump supporters: It’s not legal in most cases, and certainly not right, but 1 in 5 left-leaning bosses “will not hire” supporters of President Trump, and huge majorities of hiring managers want to know the positions job candidates have on highly controversial issues including race and immigration, according to a sweeping…
