It doesn’t matter to the left how they ban guns. They will go after them with onerous purchase regulations. They will try to confiscate them using “Red Flag” laws. They will increase costs with ridiculous registration and purchase fees, and increased fees levied against retailers. They will restrict the right to carry weapons for self-protection…

Good morning, kids. The Maui wildfires remains the top story as the scale of the disaster in terms of human life and of course to a lesser extent property is horrific. In my post last week referring to the fact that many ultra wealthy, primarily well-known lefties being in the line of fire did not…

Good morning, kids. And greetings from somewhere in midtown Manhattan. I’ll have some thoughts on this sort of surreal experience in a separate piece on Monday, so BOLO for that. Now on to the “fresh hell” or warmed-over purgatory for the day. In any case, it really is fresh hell for the people of Maui HI:…

Good morning, kids. Early travel day for me so I’m writing this on Wednesday evening. Assuming nothing breaks between now and tomorrow morning, the big story for me is the disgusting farce that took place in Portland, Oregon. Par for the course in the banana-in-the-tailpipe republic of the nation formerly known as the USA: At the…

Good morning, kids. Happy Nagasaki Day. Or Saganaki for dyslexics who prefer flaming Greek cheese. Speaking of flaming cheese, two ultra quick hits: the Leftists probably stole that Ohio election that would have made it difficult for the baby-killers to pass their baby-killing edicts, and Mitch McConnell is destined to roast in the Infernal Reaches. As you digest,…

Good morning, kids. This Thursday, I am traveling back to NYC for a brief visit for the first time in a year, and frankly I’m dreading it: A teenage girl allegedly slugged an Asian woman riding a Manhattan subway train with her family last week and attacked a witness who was recording her behavior in…

Good morning, kids. On Friday, I had a bit of a semi-heated exchange with friend and cob CBD over one of my asides in the links. Specifically, it was about Ron DeSantis claiming he was going to start “slitting throats on day one” vis a vis going after the Deep State. My retort about DeSantis…
American Pedagogy Is Broken, And No Amount Of Money Can Fix It
The pleasure of seeing Lebron James, a pompous, entitled, smug, illiterate roundball player being pilloried for his arrogance in thinking that his money and face was sufficient to create some sort of little Harvard on the Cuyahoga is delicious. But this miserable situation exposes the horrendous state of American education, and proves that the mantra…
The Morning Report 8/4/23
Good Morning, kids. Well, it’s official. Joe Rogan has declared that the country under Biden has indeed degenerated into a banana republic. Good of him to notice what has been blazingly self-evident to many of us for the past three years. I suppose I shouldn’t be hard on him, and in fact, given his reach, I take…
The Morning Rant
This lunacy is a glimpse into the chaotic fever dreams of the academic no-nothing desperate to publish, an AWFL (affluent, white, female, liberal), and a media frantically covering for their illogical, ahistorical blather. There is no difference between trying to pretend to be the opposite sex (there are two of them, no matter what these…
