Rut Roh,…. School bus – Children – Parents with baseball bats – Angry Moms and Teenagers with Guns – Generally speaking, never a good mix… Doubt you’ll see this on Don Lemon’s show. (more…)
Several elements are needed to qualify as #hashtag worthy for the #F**kThePolice and “Black Lives Matter” movement. At 4:21 am today the qualifications were once again met.
√ A liberal geography.
√ A professional victim class.
√ A community infected with political correctness.
√ A group of impressionable young minds to engage social media.
√ A snappy narrative like “Black Lives Matter” etc.
√ A narrative that doesn’t need actual facts to support the racial meme.
√ Pictures showing a well narrated victim.
√ Videos carefully edited to only show a victim profile.
√ Overwrought protestation to the municipal authority (college Prez).
√ Knee-jerk Municipal authority acquiescence.
If the Social Justice #Hashtag pitch doesn’t take hold (ie. Tony Robinson, Madison Wisconsin) – Just cue up the next victim: “Martese Johnson” (Charlottesville, Virginia).
Seeing this bantered about via various sites is laughable. Glenn Beck announces he’s done with the GOP because they’ve lied about enforcing laws on illegal immigration and removing Obamacare constructs. Or something.
Beck is one of those financially dependent logic benders who is capable of flexing his spine into a 360 radius and shoving it completely up his own backside.
Beck’s previous support for Decepticon McConnell et al, in combination with his insufferable prior positions on illegal aliens, reflect something more than spinal geometry. I would bet the more likely motive is his media finances are struggling.
Via Daily Caller – Conservative radio host Glenn Beck announced on his radio show Wednesday morning that he has officially left the Republican Party.
Beck, whose program appears on TheBlaze.com, said the GOP lost him when they said “they were going to stand against Obamacare and illegal immigration.” Beck added that the party “set us up” and “enough is enough.” (more…)
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration set a record again for censoring government files or outright denying access to them last year under the U.S. Freedom of Information Act, according to a new analysis of federal data by The Associated Press.
The government took longer to turn over files when it provided any, said more regularly that it couldn’t find documents and refused a record number of times to turn over files quickly that might be especially newsworthy.
It also acknowledged in nearly 1 in 3 cases that its initial decisions to withhold or censor records were improper under the law — but only when it was challenged. (more…)

(Via Jerusalem Post) The Israeli elections took a dramatic turn in the early morning hours on Wednesday as official tallies from nearly all precincts indicate that Likud has opened up a significant lead over Zionist Union, a far cry from the virtual dead heat that television exit polls had reported Tuesday evening.
With 99 percent of precincts reporting before dawn on Wednesday, the Likud has emerged as the clear, undisputed victor in the elections.
According to the official up-to-the-minute tally, Likud wins 30 seats while Zionist Union comes in second at 24 seats.
The parties that follow are Joint Arab List (14); Yesh Atid (11); Kulanu (10); Bayit Yehudi (8); Shas (7); United Torah Judaism (6); Yisrael Beytenu (6); and Meretz (4). (read more)
Yesterday Ferguson police shooter Jeffrey Williams’ attorney, Jerryl Christmas, made the claim that his client was beaten by Saint Louis Police during his arrest. Attorney Christmas, and Ferguson protest leader, Bishop Derrick Robinson, have now both made that claim.
As noted in the Saint Louis media:
[…] “Jerryl Christmas, also claimed that Williams was beaten during the arrest, a claim that police deny”.
[…] “Christmas said Williams had bruises on his back, neck and face as well as a knot on the back of his head, allegedly from the butt of an officer’s gun”. (link)
However, we have uncovered media video taken by KMOV on the night of the shooting which clearly shows Jeffrey Williams in a fight directly in front of the police department.
The video shows clearly Jeffrey Williams fighting with a large heavyset black male (grey hoodie), and getting hit numerous times during the fight.
This appears to be the direct source of any bruising – NOT THE POLICE DEPARTMENT: (more…)
The Wisconsin National Education Association (WNEA) and Service Employees International Union (SEIU) fund a leftist group called “Wisconsin Jobs Now”.
Wisconsin Jobs Now has recently extended their left-wing antagonism efforts toward Madison Wisconsin where Tony Robinson was recently shot by police.
MADISON, Wis. – The National Education Association funded group, Wisconsin Jobs Now, continued its anti-police efforts at a rally it organized Wednesday.
Coming off months of protests against the Milwaukee Police Department, the group — that is also backed by the SEIU — is now targeting police in the liberal haven of Madison, Wisconsin.
According to prosecuting attorney Robert McCulloch a .40 caliber (weapon) was recovered on Jeffrey Williams, and Williams admitted to shooting toward the police. In addition his vehicle is on video driving to the scene and within 27 seconds of pulling his vehicle onto the street (where the shots originated) the gunfire took place.
Now comes the defense spin....
CLAYTON • The lawyer for Jeffrey Williams, who is accused of wounding two police officers at a protest in Ferguson last week, insisted Tuesday that his client did not shoot them — even though the prosecutor and a minister have said Williams admitted it.
The lawyer, Jerryl Christmas, also claimed that Williams was beaten during the arrest, a claim that police deny.
In addition, Christmas said the officers hit by gunfire were shot by accident, but would not say how he knows that if Williams was not the shooter. He said Williams did not fire a gun that night. (more…)
Oh boy, this should be interesting…. I might just have to start buying that overpriced coffee.
It would be far more than generally delicious if one of those insufferable hipster students -majoring in advanced lesbian dance theory- would begin to pontificate their critical race beliefs upon my Ethiopian bean juice..
(Via WaPo) […] In partnership with USA Today, Starbucks has launched a week-long campaign under the banner “Race Together” to get staff and customers talking about race. In a video message, Schultz urges “partners” to write the phrase on their paper cups “to facilitate a conversation between you and our customers.” A USA Today supplement, set to be published March 20, includes a number of “conversation starters,” including the fill-in-the-blank question: “In the past year, I have been to the home of someone of a different race ___ times.”
You can imagine a group of feel-good liberals sitting around a Starbucks boardroom table discussing their magnanimous plans to ‘school-the-world’ via café speeches on race relations delivered by the Starbucks baristas. BRILLIANT.
This idea is an absolutely perfect representative example of liberal arrogance. (more…)
