JD Vance: The Media Have Made It OK to 'Tee Off' on Law Enforcement

JD Vance: The Media Have Made It OK to 'Tee Off' on Law Enforcement

The problem here is not the Insurrection Act or whether we actually invoke it or not. The problem is the fact that the entire media in this country, cheered on by a few far-left lunatics, has made it OK to tee off on American law enforcement. We can not accept that in the United States of America.

Models are guesstimates, not gospel - AhmadFaizVolvoKlasik2 
"Climate Hansenism: The Gospel of the Guesstimate" - By Grinner&Associates
In the land of Climatonia, there lived a revered oracle named Dr. Hansen. 
He didn’t wear robes or carry a staff—he wielded climate models. 
These were no ordinary models; they were sacred scrolls of simulation, capable of predicting everything… and nothing… all at once.
The followers of Hansenism gathered weekly in the Temple of Consensus, where they chanted the sacred mantra: “Consistent with the models… Consistent with the models…”
One day, Hansen proclaimed: “By the year 2013, the Arctic shall be ice-free in summer!”
The crowd gasped. 
The skeptics scoffed. The media rejoiced.
But 2013 came and went. 
The Arctic still had ice.
The faithful responded: “Ah, but the trend was correct. The timing was symbolic. The models were… directionally accurate.”...
And so, Climate Hansenism thrived—not because it was always right, but because it was never wrong...

Video sleuth challenges FBI Jan. 6 pipe-bomb narrative, unearths new evidence | Blaze Media

A detailed analysis of the Jan. 6 pipe bombs found new problems with the FBI evidence and advances the notion that the case could turn out to be a government-created hoax. A video engineer who spent more than a year examining the pipe bomb evidence submitted a 26-page report to the House Select Subcommittee to Investigate the Remaining Questions Surrounding Jan. 6.

Judge DUI In Strip Club Parking Lot Incident

"RE: The Letitia James Indictment Honestly, I think this may be the most important thing that Trump 45 or Trump 47 has accomplished thus far.

It may have reset us to the baseline of comity.  - Cynical Publius@CynicalPublius 
  • You see, for many years now Democrats have believed that they could do basically whatever they wanted to Republicans, whilst Republicans were still bound by the Old Rules of comity and respect. 
Those were the New Rules.
  • They thought we would never adopt the New Rules. 
  • We did. 
The James indictment says to Democrats: 
  • You no longer can assume that we will let you do whatever you want to us. 
  • We will do to you what you did to us. 
  • And we will be merciless until you prove you will never do it again....

Oct. 15 paychecks: Trump vows to get troops paid despite Schumer shutdown * WorldNetDaily * by WND Staff

President Trump Saturday vowed to get members of the military paid Oct. 15 despite the ongoing government shutdown that has prevented nearly all federal employees from being paid. In a Truth Social post, Trump said he directed Secretary of War Pet Hegseth to find the funds to make good on payday Wednesday, saying, "we have identified funds to do this." Insisted Trump, " I will not allow the Democrats to hold our Military, and the entire Security of our Nation, HOSTAGE, with their dangerous Government Shutdown."

"...in honor of you..."

 


The Insurrection Act - by Glenn Harlan Reynolds

So first, it’s discretionary to employ: “Whenever the President considers.” - Glenn Harlan Reynolds
With resistance to ICE in many blue cities, there’s been a lot of talk about Trump invoking the Insurrection Act. 
There are other, lesser statutes that he can employ, but this is the big gun. 
  • It intentionally gives the President enormous freedom and power to put down resistance to the law.
This is the relevant part of the Insurrection Act:
§252. Use of militia and armed forces to enforce Federal authority
Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.
  1. So first, it’s discretionary to employ: “Whenever the President considers.” This language leaves no room for judicial review, by design; it’s up to the President to determine when the predicates for invoking the Act apply. 
  2. Second, this phrase, “unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings,” seems to fit perfectly with what’s going on in places like Portland or Chicago.
  3. Third, discretionary language again: “as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.”
It’s entirely up to the President under the statute...

California Ignores Detainer and Releases Serial Criminal Illegal Alien; He Kills 6

“This serial criminal killed six innocent souls.Catherine Salgado
A serial criminal removed from the United States multiple times for being an illegal alien and arrested for multiple offenses, including drunk driving, was released last year by the state of California despite a federal detainer.
He subsequently murdered six people...
  • Unfortunately, however, the legal apparatus simply did not insist on holding him for his crimes, at least in sanctuary-state California.
“This serial criminal killed six innocent souls. Governor Newsom has blood on his hands. This serial criminal should have never been released by California authorities,” mourned Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin in a DHS press release
  • “Sanctuary policies protect the WORST OF THE WORST criminal illegal aliens. ICE will do everything in our power to remove this serial drunk driver, abuser, and drug user from our country.”...

Is Higher Education even interested in reform?

A new featured article by the AAUP calls viewpoint diversity anathema to academic freedom. - Greg Lukianoff, Samuel J. Abrams, and Adam Goldstein


No institution better embodies that reflex than the American Association of University Professors (AAUP). 
Under its current leadership — President Todd Wolfson, who frames criticism of academia as part of “right-wing forces… striving to dismantle our institutions” — the AAUP has responded to legitimate calls for reform with a mix of denial and deflection...
This brings us to the latest entry in AAUP’s recent history of dodging reform: the lead essay in its flagship magazine, Academe. 
It’s titledSeven Theses Against Viewpoint Diversity,” written by Lisa Siraganian, and it’s an unintentional masterclass in how to lose the moral high ground.


God bless!

 


The secret to Chick-fil-A's success has nothing to do with chicken | Blaze Media

The secret to Chick-fil-A's success has nothing to do with chicken | Blaze Media

The company is built on biblical values, honors the Sabbath, fosters servant-hearted leadership, and champions hospitality. These values are operational standards. They guide how team members respond to guests with “my pleasure,” how conflict is resolved, and even how franchise partners are selected.

Chick-fil-A didn’t set out with a customer-first strategy and later decide to care about people.

The sheer gaslighting, psychological projection and failure to acknowledge a superhuman accomplishment by the people who made the problem worse is the height of chutzpah

But, sadly, other than Fetterman and, bizarrely, a sober Hillary, they can't stand it and are openly wishing for peace to unravel. - Sev Onyshkevych
  • Fuck them. 
  • This is why the country has disavowed them.
Patricia Gordon - Blinker’s comments are absolutely bizarre! He was ejected from Israel and told never to return, that’s why the CIA director, Bill Burns had to step in as chief negotiator. Even he couldn’t get it done because Blinken was telling him to follow his instructions.

America needs new all-male academies to rebuild strength | Blaze Media

America needs new all-male academies to rebuild strength | Blaze Media

Every class, extracurricular, and academy event should directly relate to the military profession. This would almost certainly mean smaller course offerings, fewer Division I athletics, and fewer civilian professors without military experience. Above all, like VMI, West Point, and the Naval Academy, a student hierarchy (or chain of command) must be the definitive experience of academy life.
