Yes you cannot hate the media enough. I better be careful, but I am assuming despite that declaration, Black Rock, 30 Rockefeller Plaza and CNN HQ will not encounter simultaneous truck bombs from anyone who read that. Elsewhere, despite the ululations from the Leftists over Charlie Kirk's being slaughtered as is sadly, though clearly evident in the links, one more disgusting than the other as you slog through them. It is encouraging that worldwide there have been wonderful outpourings of grief and praise for this truly remarkable man. More crucially, there have been thousands of inquiries both from here at home and from all over the world from people looking to become part of TPUSA and align themselves with the free speech movement that he championed so effectively.
As George Patton in his eponymous biopic sadly noted upon the death in battle of his Aide de camp "I can't see the reason such fine young men get killed. There are so many battles yet to fight."
But let the words of his grieving widow serve as a clarion call and a way forward.

Soon after authorities identified Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, a conspiracy theory began to rocket around liberal corners of the internet. Robinson, the theory went, may have appeared to be on the left side of the political aisle but was actually a supporter of President Donald Trump trying to make liberals look bad. The evidence that Robinson is a staunch leftist is compelling. He left anti-fascist calling cards on the ammunition found at the scene. He told family members about his disdain for Kirk's political views. He was living with a male romantic partner who identifies as transgender. Investigators who interviewed those close to Robinson came away with the clear impression that he "was a person who was deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology," according to Utah governor Spencer Cox (R.).
The plurality of Americans surveyed in a YouGov poll bought into the false narrative that the alleged assassin of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk is a Republican. Several notable figures rushed to claim that the suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was a conservative Christian, though Republican Utah Gov. Spencer Cox and federal authorities later confirmed that Robinson became “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology.” The poll found that 24% of all adults have bought into the idea that Robinson is not, in fact, liberal.

But let the words of his grieving widow serve as a clarion call and a way forward.
On Friday, she addressed the nation, a mere fifty-four hours after he was viciously assassinated. Her speech was an amazing testament to her courage and resilience. She showed no signs of retreating. In fact, her goal is to expand the message and outreach of her husband’s remarkable organization, Turning Point USA. The sixteen-minute address was truly astounding as Erika Kirk displayed unbelievable poise and composure. She vowed, “The cries of this widow will echo around the world like a battle cry.” She also reassured the millions of people who supported her husband. She said, “To everyone listening tonight across America, the movement my husband built will not die. It won’t. I refuse to let that happen. It will not die. All of us will refuse to let that happen.” Erika Kirk was not only responding as an aggrieved widow, but she was also speaking for millions of conservatives nationwide who are tired of the continual abuse they receive from lunatic leftists.From Hebdo to Kirk, here we are. No surrender, and no retreat. While this is encouraging. . .
White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller pledged on Monday to use the whole of the federal government to target and dismantle the organized left-wing domestic terrorist movement in the United States. Miller made the remarks to Vice President J.D. Vance, who was hosting The Charlie Kirk Show as a special tribute to the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder. Kirk, a conservative firebrand and devout follower of Jesus Christ, was assassinated while engaging in debate at Utah Valley University on Wednesday, September 10. The suspect in the case, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was reportedly in a romantic relationship with a male transgender roommate, and “Hey fascist! Catch!” was inscribed on one of the rounds found in the alleged murder weapon. “I have an organized strategy to go after the left-wing organizations that are promoting violence in this country, and I will write those words onto my heart, and I will carry them out,” Miller said. “If people ask me, you know, what emotions I’m feeling right now… I mean, you kind of know the answer. There’s incredible sadness, but there’s incredible anger. And the thing about anger is that unfocused anger or blind rage is not a productive emotion. But focused anger, righteous anger directed for a just cause is one of the most important agents of change in human history.”As I said, encouraging until you realize that the Democrat National Committee and Party are at the top of the food chain here. Much of their campaign lucre, goes directly or indirectly via NGOs or Bureaucratic slush funds in the form of grants to organizations that promote, foment or even directly participate in violence or other tactics to persecute, punish and abuse their political opponents/enemies. As some have posted, and I have articulated here for quite some time, and as recently as yesterday, the greatest mistake of history was that the Democrat Party was not absolutely dismantled and outlawed following the Civil War that they caused. Everything wrong with this country, politically and culturally — all of the bloodshed, misery, suffering, dislocation, wastage of life, treasure and human potential is directly the fault of the Democrat Left's policies and actions it has inflicted on us since at least the time that Aaron Burr murdered Alexander Hamilton right up until the present day. Period, full stop. To swipe the saying of Democrat Superhero Mao Tse Tung, let a hundred flowers bloom - - let Charlie Kirk's martyrdom Let a million patriots come forward to carry on in his name. Amen! And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
Have a great day!

Borderlands 3 meanwhile will run just fine on an RTX 5050.

With the same hardware Borderlands 3 looks far better while also performing better. Not a direct comparison, but so does Cyberpunk 2077, even with ray tracing enabled to increase the load on the GPU.

Joe Manchin: Obama and Biden Destroyed "the Guardrails" That Make Peaceful Democracy Possible
He also says that Biden was an anger junkie incapable of controlling his temper.
And that's before he lost most of his executive function to dementia. (That's my addition at the end, he didn't say that.)Former Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin is opening up about the wrath he faced from former President Joe Biden -- and how the West Virginian was quietly pulling for Republicans to retake the Senate this past November to save the filibuster. In his forthcoming book, "Dead Center," Manchin -- the former West Virginia governor who repped the Mountain State for more than 14 years in the Senate -- accused prominent Democrats of undermining the system of checks and balances for more than a decade. "I don't say this lightly, but under the leadership of President [Barack] Obama and Majority Leader Harry Reid, and later President Biden and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Democrats have systematically tried to weaken the very guardrails that have protected our democracy for generations -- all in the name of advancing their agenda," wrote Manchin, 78, in an excerpt obtained by Punchbowl News. Manchin, who opted not to seek a third full term in 2024, often found himself at loggerheads with Democratic leadership over his concerns that the far left had too much sway in the party. In his final term, Manchin and fellow Sen. Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona took a public stance against doing away with the Senate's 60-vote legislative filibuster. In 2022, Manchin recounted, he faced pressure from Schumer to weaken the filibuster to pass election legislation. "Schumer wasn't interested in debate or persuasion," Manchin wrote. "He wanted a spectacle. He wanted a vote he could weaponize, a moment he could broadcast to the radical left to prove his loyalty. This wasn't about governing or principle. It was about power." ... Turning to Biden, Manchin knocked the 46th president for having a "very bad temper," though the West Virginian apparently was willing to give as good as he got. In early 2021, during negotiations over the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, Manchin says he called out Biden as "reckless" for "sending a f--ing check to everyone." The American Rescue Plan was blamed in part for annual inflation hitting 9.1% in June 2022 -- the highest rate in nearly 40 years. ... "When the party pushes hard on woke ideology, DEI [diversity, equity, and inclusion] mandates, and other social agendas, it creates unnecessary divisions, alienates everyday citizens, and moves us further away from the commonsense middle ground where most Americans actually live their lives," he argued.He says he kept waiting for the moment to change parties, but only now realizes he should have done so in 2016. Meanwhile, President Trump confirms that the antifa killer was radicalized by left-wing extremists on the internet, and discusses declaring antifa a terrorist organization and using RICO to bankrupt its funders.

The Trans-"Ally" Antifa Assassin Confessed to His Trans Pals
If a confession isn't enough, they found the killer's DNA at the shooter's nest.
'It was me': Suspect in Charlie Kirk shooting appeared to confess in Discord chat 'Im sorry for all of this' read a message from the suspect's account, according to two people familiar with the message and screenshots obtained by The Post. The 22-year-old suspect in Charlie Kirk's killing appears to have confessed to friends in an online chat shortly before turning himself in to law enforcement, according to two people familiar with the chat and screenshots obtained by The Washington Post. "Hey guys, I have bad news for you all," said a message from an account belonging to the suspect, Tyler Robinson, on the online platform Discord. "It was me at UVU yesterday. im sorry for all of this." The message was sent Thursday night, about two hours before officials said Robinson was taken into custody.So Discord lied to protect either itself or its leftwing far-left extremists.
Advertisement A member of the group chat shared an image of the conversation with The Post and confirmed that it came from Robinson's account. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity to protect their privacy and out of fear of harassment. Discord provided a copy of the message with the confession to authorities, according to a person familiar with the company's interaction with law enforcement. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss details of the investigation. The message was sent from Robinson's account to a small private group of online friends, the person said. Discord is working closely with the FBI and local authorities, providing information about Robinson's online activities on the platform, the person added. Previously, Discord had said that an internal investigation found "no evidence that the suspect planned this incident or promoted violence on Discord."
If a confession isn't enough, they found the killer's DNA at the shooter's nest.
Tyler Robinson had a rabid "obsession'' with Charlie Kirk and vowed to "take out" the conservative influencer because he "hated" his views -- boasting he had the perfect murder plan, the FBI revealed Monday. "I think it's pretty clear based on the statements of family members, friends and some of the messaging we have on these digital footprints left behind that [Robinson] clearly had some obsession with Charlie Kirk," FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino told Fox's "America's Newsroom" on Monday. "Charlie Kirk is obviously a conservative commentator," Bongino said. "I think it's fairly obvious to everyone out there, and there's no need to parse words with it, that clearly this was an ideologically motivated attack." FBI Director Kash Patel told Fox earlier in the day that Robinson, 22, had even told someone about his heinous plot before he fatally shot Kirk, 31, with a single bullet to the neck in an appearance at Utah Valley University on Wednesday. "He had a text message exchange with another individual in which he claimed that he had an opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk -- and he was going to do it because of his hatred for what Charlie stood for," Patel told "Fox & Friends."
But the accused killer -- a "furry''-obsessed trade-school student with a transitioning male-to-female partner -- suggested the same murderous thought later on a physical note, Patel said.

JD Vance Guest Hosts the Charlie Kirk Show: "This is not a 'both sides' problem"
Collin Rugg
@CollinRugg JD Vance goes scorched earth on people celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk, says there can be no unity with these sick people. "There is no unity with people who scream at children over their parents' politics." "There is no unity with someone who lies about what Charlie Kirk said in order to excuse his murder." "There is no unity with someone who harasses an innocent family the day after the father of that family lost a dear friend." "There is no unity with the people who celebrate Charlie Kirk's assassination." "There is no unity with the people who fund these articles, who pay the salaries of these terrorist sympathizers, who argue that Charlie Kirk, a loving husband and father, deserved a shot to the neck because he spoke words with which they disagree."

FBI Investigating a Conspiracy of Violent Far-Left Transgenders Who Proclaimed That Charlie Kirk Would be Murdered on September 10th and Who Admitted Their Role in the Conspiracy: "We F***ing Did It!"
Or did he? Deb Heine has made an extremely interesting observation about that date, but I will not mention it until she publishes. Maybe some of you can figure out what she's figured out. Let's just say the post is essentially an admission of a major role in the conspiracy. I assume she will publish at American Greatness when she's ready. Update: Deb Heine already tweeted her find. She points out that June 30 is 6/30, or 30-6. The caliber of the assassin's rifle is 30-06. Coincidence? Or admission that he know the rifle left at the "DROP POINT" was/is a Mauser 98 in 30-06 caliber?
This one says: "i plead the fifth."
A group calling itself "Armed Queers SLC" (Salt Lake City) is also being investigated as being part of the conspiracy.
As you of course know, the latest left-wing antifia assassin was living with a transgender "transitioning to female" in a "romantic" relationship. This transgender also appears to be a furry, appearing on camera in a squirrel hoodie.
As already mentioned, one of the messages scrawled on the bullet casings was "notices bulge oWO," which XTC explained is a reference noticing a bulge on a "woman" he's fooling around with, and becoming even more interested than when he thought the man was a woman. BlueAnon conspiracists claimed that this is really a "right-wing meme." Knowing now for a fact that Robinson was banging a dude who thinks he's "transitioning," we can say no, this was definitely a far-left transgender/furry meme. The fact that the right mentions this meme means nothing: We on the right frequently mention left-wing memes to make fun of them. This site is almost 60% sarcastic repetitions of left-wing cant. You also know that a transgender -- or the self-identified "Non-binary GOAT" "Skye Valdez" -- recorded a song "predicting" Kirk's murder on September 10th and then wrote a song called "Charlie Kirk Dead at 31." This transgender then deleted those songs after people noticed them. That transgender, and more transgenders and transgender-"ally" antifa members, wrote many messages "predicting" Kirk's assassination and then, after the murder, admitted their role in a conspiracy. One of these wrote, "We f***ing did it!," which will be crucial evidence in court of their membership in the conspiracy to commit premeditated murder.Or did he? Deb Heine has made an extremely interesting observation about that date, but I will not mention it until she publishes. Maybe some of you can figure out what she's figured out.

Or admission that he know the rifle left at the "DROP POINT" was/is a Mauser 98 in 30-06 caliber?
This one says: "i plead the fifth."
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating social media posts by at least seven different accounts that appeared to indicate foreknowledge of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, according to three people familiar with the investigation and screenshots obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. The posts--one of which referenced the date of Kirk's assassination, September 10, more than a month before it took place--were all deleted in the days following the killing. Several of the accounts appear to belong to transgender individuals, and at least one of them followed suspect Tyler Robinson's roommate, with whom Robinson was allegedly in a relationship, on TikTok.I think these are just the public posts. We will see more from the private (for now) discord chats. We will see the conspiracists plotting, and we'll find out who left the assassination rifle at the "DROP POINT." Does this have something to do with June 30? We shall see.
I think this is a disclaimer made for legal reasons. No, the posts do not prove these people are part of a conspiracy, but when you know and interact with the killer, and you "predict" that Charlie Kirk will be "vaporized" on September 10th and then the people you talk to online actually kills Kirk on September 10th, it is hard to deny that you were informed before the murder that the murder was to take place.
The FBI has received archived copies of the posts, according to a person who flagged them for the agency. Screenshots of the posts have been circulating online but had not been previously authenticated. While the posts do not establish that any of the individuals knew or conspired with Robinson, the 22-year-old gunman who allegedly shot Kirk, several of them mention the conservative activist by name and fantasize about his death.
There's that date again.
"itd be funny if someone like charlie kirk got shot on september 10th LMAO," one X account posted on September 3. Another account posted on August 6--more than a month before the shooting--that "september 10th will be a very interesting day." After Kirk's assassination, the account followed up: "I plead the fifth." The morbid quip was reposted by an account named "churbum75m (SAW TYLER JUNE 30)," who appears to follow Robinson's roommate, Lance Twiggs, on TikTok, where Twiggs's username is "lanclotl."
I've seen it reported that this Person Place or Thing is the "Skye Valdez" who wrote the song "predicting" Charlie Kirk's murder, and then the song "Charlie Kirk Dead at 31" celebrating it. This article isn't making that connection so I guess it hasn't been confirmed by sources.
Minutes after Kirk was pronounced dead, churbum75m posted on X: "WE FUCKING DID IT." Several of the accounts under investigation appear to be associated with LGBT subcultures. One individual, "Osamu bin Tezuka," used the X handle "@fujoshincel," a reference to a genre of anime that depicts romantic relationships between men. Another user, "@NajraGalvz," who had wished death to Kirk and predicted that "something big will happen" when he set foot on campus, had identified as nonbinary on X.
And in a video posted on TikTok the night before the shooting, an individual who appears to be transgender wrote that "charles james kirk...does not know what's coming tomorrow." "This isn't a threat," the individual added. "It's a promise."Obviously this is further proof of an active conspiracy, and this post will also be introduced at trial against the conspirators. I should say that legally, just knowing that someone is going to commit a crime is not proof of conspiracy. However, the definition of conspiracy is merely the agreement before two or more people that a felony should be committed. You don't have actually commit the crime. You just have to agree that one of your number should commit the crime. All of these people sure seem to be agreed that this crime should be committed. See that article for additional admissions of the conspiracy. Update: sven says that Utah has a stern law about participation in a conspiracy to commit a death-penalty-eligible crime. To wit, you can get the death penalty even if you're a "non-active conspirator."
One nice thing about the homicide being in Utah is their felony murder doctrine does not f**k around the case can and has to be made on individual cases in a conspiracy on whether the behavior merits the death penalty for NON-ACTIVE conspirators. This is a brutal interrogation tool psychologically and is one of the rare cases and states where I'd rather the Feds let the state work first. Posted by: svenI don't know if that's true. I'll look it up at some point.
A group calling itself "Armed Queers SLC" (Salt Lake City) is also being investigated as being part of the conspiracy.
Charlie Kirk assassination investigation widens to probe whether pro-trans, online groups knew in advanceNote there this article calls them Armed Queens, whereas earlier they called it Armed Queers. I think it's Queers with an R. There's a picture of one of their propaganda posters calling themselves Queers. Maybe they called themselves both at different times.
The feds have widened their investigation into the assassination of Charlie Kirk to probe whether pro-trans, online groups and others connected with Tyler Robinson knew in advance about the plan to kill the MAGA influencer, The Post has learned. Law enforcement sources said that investigators are examining leftist groups both in Utah and online to figure out if they helped him with the shooting -- or at least heard it was going to happen. The probe includes groups in online gaming community Steam, as well as a pro-trans organization called Armed Queers SLC, which took down their Instagram after Kirk was killed, the source confirmed. ... Taken together, they leave a trail of breadcrumbs for investigators who are trying to determine whether Robinson acted all on his own, or had accomplices. Utah group Armed Queens SLC, whose logo features two high-powered rifle rounds similar to the one that struck Kirk, hosted a lecture on "queer resistance" at the University of Utah in September, 2023 -- around 45 miles from Utah Valley University where the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder and Trump ally lost his life.
Press X to doubt.
Flyers promoting the event hosted in partnership with self-described "leftist student organization" Mecha de U of U obtained by Young America's Foundation feature a young woman clad in two ammo belts and clutching an AK-47, with her finger on the trigger. ... In an interview with Voyage Utah last year, a representative for Armed Queers SLC said in response to a question about risk-taking, "Our commitment to something much bigger than ourselves, to people's struggles against racism, transphobia, and capitalism, means much more to us than any risk." ... Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday that investigators are also looking into whether the relationship could have been a motive for the alleged shooter, noting the partner, Lance Twiggs, has been "incredibly cooperative" with authorities. Twiggs, who has not been accused of any involvement in the crime, "had no idea this was happening and is working with investigators right now," Cox told host Dana Bash.

Washington Post Fires Left-Wing Extremist DEI Savage for Dancing on Charlie Kirk's Grave, Suggesting His Assassination Is Warranted

Yes it will. No one ever cites you or quotes you. You had a DEI job because you're a black woman and, I'm guessing, Muslim. You had no pull apart from the platform given to you as a racial apology. Your substack will make $800 a month.
Prominent opinion columnist and editor Karen Attiah has been fired from The Washington Post over a series of posts she wrote following the murder of Charlie Kirk. Attiah, 39, said she was sacked last week over the 'unacceptable social media posts' in the wake of the conservative commentator's assassination in Utah. One read: 'Part of what keeps America so violent is the insistence that people perform care, empty goodness and absolution for white men who espouse hatred and violence.' Another of the posts, on social media platform Bluesky, said: 'Refusing to tear my clothes and smear ashes on my face in performative mourning for a white man that espoused violence is.... not the same as violence.' The journalist revealed her firing in a lengthy post on Substack on Monday, which she titled 'The Washington Post Fired Me -- But My Voice Will Not Be Silenced.'
Oh, that's how this nobody came to prominence -- she was the handler for a radical Arab propagandist paid by foreign intelligence services.
'The Post accused my measured Bluesky posts of being "unacceptable," "gross misconduct" and of endangering the physical safety of colleagues -- charges without evidence, which I reject completely as false,' Attiah wrote. 'They rushed to fire me without even a conversation. This was not only a hasty overreach, but a violation of the very standards of journalistic fairness and rigor the Post claims to uphold.' ... She noted that her most shared post on Bluesky following Kirk's death read: 'For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country... Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year. And America shrugged and moved on.' Explaining the post, Attiah wrote on Substack: 'I pointed to the familiar pattern of America shrugging off gun deaths, and giving compassion for white men who commit and espouse political violence. This cycle has been documented for years. Nothing I said was new or false or disparaging-- it is descriptive, and supported by data.' Attiah said she only directly referenced Kirk once, when she shared one of his quotes: 'Black women do not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person's slot.' 'Washington D.C. no longer has a paper that reflects the people it serves,' the columnist said. 'What happened to me is part of a broader purge of Black voices from academia, business, government, and media -- a historical pattern as dangerous as it is shameful -- and tragic.' ... Attiah rose to prominence as the hiring editor for Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, who was murdered in Istanbul by the Saudi regime in 2018.
She is no stranger to controversy over her social media posts. Attiah was previously in hot water in 2021 after saying in a since-deleted post that white women were 'lucky' that black people are 'just calling them Karens and not calling for revenge.' Before deleting the post, she doubled down on the remark in the comments section, saying: 'I'm just saying. Be happy we are calling for equality. And not actual revenge.'Not violent! Just be happy her black cousins aren't slitting white women's throats on trains. Oh wait they are. Never mind. Update: She justified the rape spree/terrorist murder spree of 10/7 as well, stating: This is what 'decolonization' looks like, "losers."
A Washington Post columnist who once led the paper's international opinions section lent support this week to those kidnapping, raping, and killing Israeli citizens. Karen Attiah, a prominent journalist, echoed a social media post by a fringe Somali that said, "what did y'all think decolonization meant? vibes? papers? essays? losers."

She said mental health, like the schizophrenia Brown was diagnosed with, “needs to be treated with the same compassion, diligence and commitment as cancer and heart disease,” adding, “those who are unhoused are more frequently the victim of crimes and not the perpetrators.”Mayor Lyles also made it clear that she remains committed to keeping violent predators out of jail and on the streets, stating “We will never arrest our way out of issues such as homelessness and mental health.” That is both dishonest and not true. The murder was not committed due to homelessness, but more importantly, a disproportionate amount of felonies are committed by recidivist criminals. If they stay behind bars once arrested, then there would be no “repeat offenders.” The mayor also sought to have the media embargo any video evidence of her sympathetic criminal committing murder against an unsuspecting woman.
Thanking left-wing media for conspiring with you to hide violent crime victims and downplay your crime problem is one approach.

If individuals or individuals who are directly or indirectly given marching orders by higher ups have no compunction about taking shots at Donald Trump and Charlie Kirk, At some point should the institutional Left and its epicenter in the Democrat Party feel that their hold on power and societal influence or ability to seize it absolutely once and for is slipping away, then the death of Charlie Kirk should prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are capable and willing to unleash a hell on earth here in America. Should that nightmare scenario come about, it might very well be their undoing. As JIm Morrison of and the Doors once sang way back in another era just as riven with civil strife "They've got the guns but we've got the numbers." Except, 60-odd years on it's We who have got the guns and the numbers. But will we have the backbone to do the unthinkable should push come to shove. And is Charlie Kirk's death the push or the shove, or is something else even more heinous on the horizon? This next item could just be a weird coincidence, in that it was out of Utah. But still. . .
AS CBD and I discussed in the last couple podcasts, the drive towards national suicide which manifested itself in the death of Charlie Kirk was largely spawned in America's schools and universities.
It was also the gravamen of CBD's essay yesterday entitled "Deathocracy."
Remember not to post comments on this or any old thread or you could be accidentally banned. And the esteemed Victor Davis Hanson also weighs in on it with his latest outing:
May Charlie's death not be in vain. May his life and work inspire thousands of Americans, young and old alike, to join the cause of freedom that he lived and ultimately died for. And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
Have a great day!
The left is evil. The left is a gang of terrorists. If you have any lingering doubt about that, consider this: first they were celebrating the murder of Charlie Kirk, but now leftists are making those celebrations look practically innocent. Hit lists have begun to appear on social media, as bloodthirsty leftists indulge their fantasies about which of their designated enemies they would like to see murdered next. And yes, there is no doubt whatsoever that the people who are openly displaying their bloodlust in this way think all the while that they occupy the moral high ground. . . JK Rowling pointed out what this bloodlust revealed about the left: “If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal. If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist. If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian. If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.”
. . . If we cower in fear, we will end up being enslaved and face death anyway. If we stand up against evil, we will prevail against it. As was said long ago: “He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.” (Matthew 10:39)
Leftists intentionally sowed the chaos that now plagues America’s cities and created the conditions that led to Zarutska’s murder. If you want evidence, look no further than President Donald Trump’s crackdown on crime in our nation’s capital. . . Likewise, years of assassination prep language from the left paved the way for Kirk’s assassination. Indeed, such rhetoric has become part of the everyday vocabulary of leftist politicians and foot soldiers alike.

It’s always the ones you least expect. Two men have been taken into custody after an operation involving multiple law enforcement agencies in a Magna neighborhood. One of the suspects were identified as 58-year-old Adeeb Nasir and 31-year-old Adil Justice Ahme Nasir. According to a probable cause statement, bomb squads from the Salt Lake City Police Department and Unified Fire Authority responded to reports of a suspicious device. The Nasirs were apparently arrested “for the offenses of manufacturing or possessing a weapon of mass destruction, threat of terrorism”.

Remember not to post comments on this or any old thread or you could be accidentally banned. And the esteemed Victor Davis Hanson also weighs in on it with his latest outing:
Are universities critical to America’s prosperity and security now only in terms of the sciences, math, engineering, and medical schools?Well, when confirmed violent terrorists like Angela Davis and Susan Rosenberg are given tenured professorships, and those are but two examples, we and it's not just the universities. It starts in the Kindergarten all the way through high school, since public school teachers are trained by the likes of the aforementioned. Stochastic Terrorism. The real danger is SCHOLASTIC TERRORISM...
As for the humanities? They scarcely exist at the elite universities as we once knew them. Either de facto or literally, they have been overwhelmed and distorted by endless studies-courses, DEI radicalism, 90 percent leftist faculties, and suppression of free thought and free expression.
Where did the envisioning of violent crime as the fault of a flawed society, the institutionalization of modern racialism, chauvinism, and essentialism, and the empowerment of militant transgenderism that in so many insidious ways has filtered throughout society—if not originally birthed in the university—come from?
May Charlie's death not be in vain. May his life and work inspire thousands of Americans, young and old alike, to join the cause of freedom that he lived and ultimately died for. And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
Have a great day!

- Children are hacking their own schools for fun, warns the UK Information Commissioner's Office. (BBC)
Translation: The British government is run by and staffed with idiots.It says more the majority of so-called "insider" cyber attacks and data breaches in education settings - meaning they have been carried out by someone with access to internal systems - originate with students.
I think they've confused insider with inmate. An insider attack would be by the staff, not by the students."What starts out as a dare, a challenge, a bit of fun in a school setting can ultimately lead to children taking part in damaging attacks on organisations or critical infrastructure," said Heather Toomey, Principal Cyber Specialist at the ICO.
Reefer madness, IT edition.Since 2022, the ICO has investigated 215 hacks and breaches originating from inside education settings and says 57% were carried out by children.

Reading Thread 9/14/2025
I have again shamed my ancestors. Last week I wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer was published in 1846. WRONG! Fortunately, sharp-eyed commenter James Braden caught and corrected my error near the end of the comments.I don't know if this correction was already made in the nearly 400 previous comments, but Samuel Clemens aka Mark Twain published "Tom Sawyer" in 1876, not 1846. Clemens was only eleven years old in 1846. Posted by: James Braden at September 07, 2025 01:42 PM (dKpV9)
Thanks James Braden! Before posting I recall thinking that 1846 seemed sort of early for publication, but didn't bother to follow up. Appreciate it! Anyhoo, feel free to discuss reading and books in general and share your thoughts on this week's selection if you're so inclined. I know you're just as excited as I am, so just jump below the fold to get started!
