Quick Hits: Straight-Shooting Paragons of Truth, Every Man Jack of Them Edition

US household debt hits record $15 trillion.

Yeah this is all sustainable, right?

A female ESPN sports writer -- really, more of a political writer, it seems -- is just bewildered why anyone wouldn't like St. Megan Rapinoe.

Missouri's governor has issued full pardons to the McCloskey's, bringing Soros Lawyer Kim Gardner's political persecution of them to an end.

Well -- it should bring it to an end. I have a feeling Gardner will confabulate new charges for... something.

Parson, a Republican, on Friday pardoned Mark McCloskey, who pleaded guilty in June to misdemeanor fourth-degree assault and was fined $750, and Patricia McCloskey, who pleaded guilty to misdemeanor harassment and was fined $2,000.
"Mark McCloskey has publicly stated that if he were involved in the same situation, he would have the exact same conduct," the McCloskeys' lawyer Joel Schwartz said Tuesday. "He believes that the pardon vindicates that conduct."

Congresspyrsyn Cori Bush, who was one of the illegal trespassers on the McCloskey's property, seemed to threaten the couple, vowing "Mark McCloskey is an absolute liar. He has spat on my name. And because of that, his day will come."

That's ominous coming from someone allied with the murderous, riotous domestic terrorist organization. By which I mean the Democrat-Media Conspiracy.

And then she did this:

Cori Bush blames the Jews for homelessness in St. Louis…

And we wonder why antisemitism is rising. Elected officials are openly scapegoating Jews

Waiting on the obligatory vouching from Andrew McCarthy.

An FBI supervisory special agent based in Louisiana allegedly exposed himself to multiple children and molested one child in a period from 2018 to 2019, and the alleged crimes took place in Florida, Louisiana, and Texas, according to a Smith County affidavit.
The suspect in the case is David Lee Harris, 51. Of Prairieville, Louisiana. A previous story by WAFB said the allegations involve underage girls.
During a previous court hearing, prosecutors said Harris threatened at least one of the victims if she said anything.
In Smith County, Harris, an FBI special supervisory agent, has been charged with third-degree felony indecent exposure.

I'm sure this is all perfectly innocent and not creepy at all:

CBS:

Amazon is offering store credit in exchange for customers submitting a digital scan of their palm, according to a report. The ecommerce company in 2020 introduced biometric palm print scanners in some of its brick-and-mortar stores, allowing registered shoppers to pay for goods by waving their hand over the devices.
To promote the payment technology and encourage more people to start using it, dubbed Amazon One, Amazon is offering $10 in promotional credit to anyone who registers a biometric print of their palm at a store, according to a promotional flyer first spotted by Tech Crunch. After registering for the system, users receive Amazon One IDs that include their palm signature, a credit card or other payment data, and other contact information, the tech industry news site reported.

Admittedly, that's kind of neat, but we have forfeited more and more of our privacy, and then our freedom, for the sake of convenience, "free" apps, and "neat" little things.

Psaki deflects about Biden's own past history of sexual harrassment/sexual assault, claiming it was "heavily litigated" during the campaign.

That's the Hillary Clinton technique of saying "All of these questions have been answered," when in fact they haven't been answered, and have barely even been asked, at least not by the leftist propaganda media.

My memory is that they begrudgingly mentioned Tara Reade's well-substantiated allegations and then "moved on," as they used to say under Bill Clinton.

There was no reason to dismiss her claims -- but they did so anyway.

And they never addressed his constant pawing at children, including at the breasts of 13 year old girls.

Newsome is probably in big trouble in the recall. He (and Pelosi) made a big tactical mistake and didn't allow a named Democrat onto the ballot. So if he loses the recall there is no place for the loyal Democrats to place their vote for a replacement.

There are districts in CA where Biden is popular, but Yes on recall is winning by 10 points.

Turns out Willie Brown is probably the smartest politician in the state, he said this was a big mistake doing it this way but was overruled.

70 Something to watch is what the FDA does with the vaccines. Because as people were pointing out yesterday, the law clearly states that no one can be mandated to take the "emergency" non-approved vaccine.

So the admin is saying it "will be approved" by September, which is when all these mandates will go into effect.

But vaccines typically take 10 years or more before they are approved by the FDA. It will be interesting to see what they do.

The Dem machine is too big and too corrupt out here. I just don't see the recall happening.... Hope I'm wrong.

123 I started working back in the office this week for the first time in over a year.

Anyway, got greeted with a fun reminder of COVID hysteria, which is of course ongoing. But this item gives an interesting perspective on it.

So: There's an incredibly morbid painting hanging in the newsroom showing a little red schoolhouse surrounded by a whole graveyard full of children's headstones, and in the middle, some kids and a teacher dancing "ring around the roses" around a giant COVID virus.

I am told this was mailed to us a year ago, when Florida was about to start its new school year with in-person learning. Which I understand still isn't happening in some parts of the country. Anyway, one of our hysterical readers was apparently trying to predict that DeathSantis was going to kill everybody with in-person classes. Since somebody apparently spent so much time making it, the handful of people who were in the office back then decided to hang it up instead of throwing it out.

Again, this was from a year ago, but who can remember back that far? I'm betting whoever created it is now cowering in fear over the Delta variant...

136 >>> Newsome is probably in big trouble in the recall. He (and Pelosi) made a big tactical mistake and didn't allow a named Democrat onto the ballot. So if he loses the recall there is no place for the loyal Democrats to place their vote for a replacement. There are districts in CA where Biden is popular, but Yes on recall is winning by 10 points. Turns out Willie Brown is probably the smartest politician in the state, he said this was a big mistake doing it this way but was overruled.

Point being - several of the good locals around me - we're talking electricians, pipe fitters - $40 an hour plus benefits jobs - are purging their rolls. Why ? Because dudes won't answer the call to go to work. They won't leave the house.
That seems - well, fvcked up. It's mostly older cats looking to milk the system between when they have to take their pension and leave the active rolls. But not all. And every trade union around here is accepting for the next class. Recruiting, even.

There is something to that. Unemployment around here pays about 40K now, at 800 a week x 50 weeks.

But there's something else going on. A dude with a Pipe Fitters card makes twice that, before overtime. And you have to knock off good years to get your pension. At least twenty, depending on the local.

Well, some illegal alien scumbag was convicted of the murder. Although the conviction was later thrown out, largely because the cops totally fucked up the investigation. Seriously, read the wiki, it's like the Three Stooges with guns and fingerprint kits.

Normally I'd say that Condit didn't have anything to do with it, since they supposedly caught the guy. But after the last couple of years, I'm not so sure. Especially since he's now a lobbyist and a slew of his fucking spawn and extended family are sitting in elected office.

She always looked kind of worn out and tired but as she's aged she's gotten harsher looking.

But here's the thing: when she's playing a role, she's very likable and becomes more attractive. Until the storyline got so annoying I couldn't watch it any more, I liked her on Longmire.

------------------------

Democrats never, ever change. They felt superior to and made fun of blacks - now they do the same thing to Southerners. They were racist against blacks - now they're racist against whites. They pushed for cheap, powerless labor using slavery, then Jim Crow now it's illegal aliens.

They just rearrange the deck chairs every couple of decades.

I flew through Prague to the Czech Republic a few years ago for work. Man - nice peeps - but it was different. They're frosty at first - and they don't like it when you're nice up front. But then, it's like a wall breaks, and all the sudden you're in the middle of the family get together. It seemed to help when I'd break the ice by admitting I did something wrong.

I would ask, and they tried to explain, but I think it was a little bit of Cold War, and a little bit of East Europe all at the same time. Still - nice folks.

I found an author I'd forgotten about but really enjoyed. Larry Brown, a fireman out of Mississippi. Hard boiled stories of the South, with comedy and love thrown in here and there in similarly brutal ways. Great author, especially if you like the Southern genre. There's at least one movie based on his work titled Big Bad Love. Good movie, too.

Anyway, all of that to say:

Miracle of catfish.

401 Ha, I'd forgotten about my cowboy boots. I'll have to go dig them out. Nothing too pricey but they were pricey for me at the time. Laredo, maybe? Anyway, gorgeous boots. Deep blood color with bright cherry that shines through in creases and if the light hits it just right, with a slightly brighter flamejob detail stitched at the toebox and going back three or four inches. Subtle, but still catchy.

I bought them for motorcycling and realized the EMT would have to cut them off my ankles, so I switched them to "go out and shoot pool" duty. So many compliments from the ladies from those boots worn with a white shirt and pair of honest-wear and naturally faded 501s.

406 I had a very interesting biology teacher when I was in school. He would get lost in his own thoughts and start on one thing and then end up going on a completely different tangent.

He would stop class to tell us where the clitoris was or how to tune an A-series engine from a mini.

One time, I remember we were talking about alcohols effect on the body and then he began to talk about how body decomposition created alcohol which can complicate the results of an autopsy regarding intoxication,

This led him on to the Moorgate tube crash, which is interesting in that nobody has ever been able to explain what happened. Either a driver committed suicide or it was an unexplained episode of paralysis that left no trace on the brain.

Basically, this tube train ran through the station at speed and hit the end wall without the driver taking his hand off the dead man's switch.

What has stuck with me though was my biology teacher telling us that the impact was so great that the Driver's cab, which was supposed to be 3ft deep, had been crushed to only 6 inches and the following 7 rows of seats occupied the 2ft behind that. Trains are no joke.
