Kongress Kicks the Kan

30 Sunday Apr 2017

budget, Congress, government, incompetence

Again. Because shutdown.

The US Congress has passed a stop-gap spending bill to keep the government running an extra week.

It will now go to the White House for the president’s signature, and will buy Congress time to reach a deal to fund the government until September.

It came just hours before a funding deadline expired, threatening a second government shutdown in four years.

Republicans were forced to make several concessions, the latest on funding for so-called Obamacare.

A government shutdown would close national parks and monuments, lay off federal employees and delay tax refund payments.

The last shutdown, in 2013, lasted for 17 days.

There was a time, long, long ago, when Congress used to appropriate money for an entire year at a time. Now it’s a chunk here, a chunk there, one week, three weeks, four months, your dollar. The word “incompetent” comes to mind.

The real reason the pols fear a shutdown is that, should one happen and go on too long, the people might realize just how little they needed or missed the government. They can’t have that. And they can’t act responsible. So they kick the can.

The only downside I see to a temporary shutdown is the closing of the Parks. And those, I can tell you from experience, are still accessible. No force field goes up around them. They’re just much, much quieter. Kind of nice.

It would be nice if Trump would veto this one-week measure. He could use it as a “teaching moment” for the idiots on the Hill, maybe for others. Go ahead and shut her down. That won’t happen though.

The can shall be kicked. Again. And then, again later. And again. A day may come when it will be harder to kick or the kicking won’t help. Not that the pols care. Or that most of you notice.

The Times Picayune.

A better approach might be for Congress to leave the can alone and kick the bucket.

An Armed Protest is a Polite Protest

America, communists, concealed carry, firearms, gun control, guns, Kentucky, Nazis, Second Amendment, society

Maybe “polite” isn’t the right word. A non-violent protest – that works better. Vocativ, where they scour the “deep web” with a slight SJW bent, inadvertently made the argument for more guns in civil society (maybe even uncivil too).

Their’s was a story about armed Nazis overrunning a Kentucky town. The reason for the invasion was a little less than clear. The main foci were: there were Nazis; the Nazis were armed; SJWs counter protested; some of the SJWs were also armed. A better title would have been: “Armed Nazis and Armed Communists Share Words in Kentucky”. I suppose a guy based in NYC and Tel Aviv can be forgiven in that regard.

The liberal press always gives the communists a pass. Everyone else is a Nazi. In this case, they were observing actual Nazis – rare. And the rarities were openly armed. They noted that the usual “punch the Nazi” and “100 Nazi scalps” stuff didn’t happen. You don’t punch or scalp people toting AR-15s.

Really there were three armed parties present: the Nazis (real, this time); the communists, and; a legion of police. In this instance I don’t think the cops were necessary to keep the other sides apart. The guns did that. All those weapons and no one was shot or otherwise injured.

Kentucky has rather decent (lax) gun laws – open carry with few strings, etc. Contrast this incident to others from heavily gun-controlled districts. In California and in D.C., where private guns are “bad”, violence and destruction are the norm.

Add an assault rifle or two and suddenly people find a little respect, even if they’re not that respectable. Funny.

Even with the Swastika tattoo, not too sure about which side this is … not sure about much of anything here… Nick Wagner / Vocativ.

Newsflash for the thugs, criminals, terrorists, and other trash of Amerika: a lot more ordinary, non-tattooed, non-chatting, and better washed people are packing heat than you might think (if you thought). They’re there. They’re concealed. They’re polite. But their patience is beginning to wear thin. Keep it polite if you can; don’t push the envelope much further. Please.

Tackling ISIS: Brit Style

England, ISIS, London, terrorism

Another potential terrorist attack in London was prevented by good (if tech-spy overkill) policing. A foreign invader, whom I shall name “Abdul”, was tackled to the ground and arrested after being surveilled around Westminster.

The terror suspect who was detained with a ‘rucksack full of knives’ near Parliament square had been tracked on an intricate web of CCTV cameras by police and MI5.

Armed police ‘swarmed like bees’ on the bearded man just before 2.30pm after his concerned family reportedly alerted security services.

Witnesses said the man, who was wearing a tracksuit and trainers, was crossing Whitehall amid the usual crowds of tourists and political staff when a police car suddenly pulled up and officers confronted him, just five weeks after the Westminster terror attack killed that five people.

But, unbeknown to him, the suspect had been tailed from the moment he got off the Underground at St James’s Park – where he had travelled from east London – and headed towards Westminster.

While covert teams trailed him on the ground, a live feed was being sent to control rooms in New Scotland Yard and the MI5’s Thames House before they gave the order for them to swoop in.

“Abdul” smirks the smirk of Jihad. I have some ideas on how to wipe that off… Daily Mail.

Based on recent observations his mistake was the subway. One can’t jump a train onto the sidewalk. He should have rented an SUV or a truck instead. There’s a formula: drive the sidewalks first; stab and slash second, and finish with “Allahu Akbar!” immediately prior to being martyered. Hopefully he won’t get a chance to correct his errors.

Taqiyya this one away.

Hon. Dr. Ron Paul’s Interview with Julian Assange

Julian Assange, Ron Paul, truth, tyranny, Wikileaks

Dr. Paul isn’t exactly Pamela Anderson but Assange seemed happy with the meeting.

Having blasted the Trump administration for their hyprocritical flip-flop from “loving WikiLeaks” to “arrest Assange,” Ron Paul made his feelings very clear on what this signals: “If we allow this president to declare war on those who tell the truth, we have only ourselves to blame.” Today he sits down with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange for a live interview…

“The CIA has been deeply humiliated as a result of our ongoing publications so this is a preemptive move by the CIA to try and discredit our publications and create a new category for Wikileaks and other national security reporters to strip them of First Amendment protections,”

Fox News

Sean Hannity, a.k.a. the last one standing, laments what may be the end of Fox News.

Yeah. That’s what happens when you fire all of your talent. Hannity was slated to be next but he did the unthinkable – he fought back. Ailes, the Judge, and Billy O are gone. Others too.

Fox will remain on the air. But it has already become as unwatchable and boring as CNN. Nearly as slanted too. Baier is watchable. Carlson may impress. The legs are still crossing…

Come to think of it, there is a lot of good talent floating around. Someone might want to round it up and start something new and better. They probably will.

That is all…

There is a Case Out There…

Constitution, Federal government, firearms, gun control, law, laws

Bob Owens at Bearing Arms is excited about a case in federal court in Kansas, U.S. v. Cox, No. 6:15-cr-10150-JTM-01, 02 (D. Kan. 2016), that sort of threatens the imperial lock on firearms. Bob thinks this case could (possibly) undue all federal gun control laws.

The federal trial of a Kansas man for manufacturing and selling firearms and silencers without a federal license could very well turn out to be the pivotal case that not only challenges the constitutionality of the National Firearms Act of 1934, but also every federal firearms law ever passed in a battle that will determine whether it is the states or the federal government that has the constitutional right to pass gun laws.

Put bluntly, this could be huge.

Or it could not be huge. In fact, I am confident it will fail entirely. Cox’s Motion to Dismiss, stating all his Constitutional overreach claims, has been denied. In fact, Cox and his co-defendant have already been convicted. Their hope now, what little there is, rests either in the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals or the Supreme Court. In order words, they have no chance.

gun_laws

NRA-ILA.

This case would be important for several reasons if we still had a Constitutional Republic. We don’t. Every single federal gun control is undoubtedly unconstitutional. But the Constitution and the rule of law are now things of the ancient past.

The government simply does as it pleases, lawful or otherwise, and the people accept it  – or go to prison. Rights are now illusory unless they are non-rights asserted by non-citizens or terrorist invaders or banking corporations.

I may or may not look further into this matter. For now, just abide by the edicts of Washington or suffer as Cox does. Your state is no protection at all against Mordor.

Happy Thursday. I’m semi-lie today from Five Points Cigars in Athens. Nice place.

computers, future, stupid

A near future generation of super-duper computers may (will) have the ability to not only read your thoughts and memories, but potentially delete them.

However, such devices are open to abuse on a frightening degree, as the academics made clear.

They warned that “malicious brain-hacking” and “hazardous uses of medical neurotechnology” could require a redefinition of the idea of mental integrity.

This technology represents a whole new level of “right think”. And it could have horrifying potential as a WMD, potential “wiping” brains clean like hard drives. No thoughts at all. The good news is that scientists figure most modern Americans literally have nothing to lose…

Conservatives: You’re Being Played, Again, As Always

America, Congress, conservative, decpetion, government, liberals

Among other social designs, “liberals” and many Democrats want to kill off future native-born Americans while simultaneously importing incompatible “replacement” citizens. They call it “choice” and “diversity”. “Conservatives” and the sad lot of the GOP say … say … they oppose these things.

At campaign rallies they claim they will halt the flow of illegals and terrorists into the country. They say they will stop wasting tax dollars on Rehashed Nazi Eugenics Inc. Planned Parenthood. Then they sweep to power and something funny, something fishy happens.

Now, Congress faces an April 28 deadline to pass a new government funding bill.

There is currently no talk that it will include language to prohibit funding of Planned Parenthood.

But there is talk that it will not include the language that President Trump has requested to provide $1.4 billion to begin his project to build “a great, great wall on our southern border.”

The Republican House can pass and send to the Republican Senate a bill that funds the border wall but not Planned Parenthood. Or they can pass one that funds Planned Parenthood but not the border wall.

The former course of action would fulfill the campaign promises that got their president elected. The latter would appease congressional Democrats and the liberal press.

So, which will it be?

Is there any doubt, at all, about that?

If you still believe anything the Republicans say, do realize that your team isn’t yours at all. They’re just one squad of the uniparty team, in business for themselves and their owners. None of them care anything about you.

That’s why they spy on you. (They’re recording you reading this right now). That’s why they have destroyed your currency. That’s why they want freaks trolling around your daughters in the restroom. That’s why they have to constantly have wars to fight (well, for you to fight). That’s why they move Heaven and Earth to keep invaders moving into America, while keeping you from leaving (or returning).

This is what the allegiance and the voting have gotten you. They lie. You fall for it. Always. Odds are this will continue.

crime, government, immigration, sanctuary cities

 

A Federal Judge in California ruled against the administration’s order that sanctuary cities either comply with the law or lose federal funding.

A federal judge on Tuesday blocked President Donald Trump’s attempt to withhold funding from “sanctuary cities” that do not cooperate with U.S. immigration officials, saying the president has no authority to attach new conditions to federal spending.

U.S. District Judge William Orrick issued the preliminary injunction in two lawsuits – one brought by the city of San Francisco, the other by Santa Clara County – against an executive order targeting communities that protect immigrants from deportation.

There may actually be some legitimacy to this ruling. The President might lack the authority to decide how earmarked monies are spent – a kind of late-term line item veto. It could be judicial overreach and interferrence. It could be both. I’ve looked into it as far as I think wise, especially considering there is a better and legal approach:

The local officials in these cities are committing felonies under 8 U.S.C. § 1324. Let them keep our tax dollars. Maybe they can buy some cigarettes in prison.

In related news, the Ninth Circuit will be dismayed to learn one of their beloved scholarly, academic-type foreign invaders has been arrested. Azhar Hussain, professor of aviation at Indiana State University was booked on charges related to his fabricating false hate crime nonsense. That keeps the otherkin hate crime hoax rate at exactly 100%. Every. Single. Time.

 

Fly Me Outrageous: More Lies About “Flying” Cars

BS, flying cars

Here we go again. And this story isn’t even about a flying car. It’s a flying …. motorbike? Jet ski?

CLEARLAKE, Calif. — On a recent afternoon, an aerospace engineer working for a small Silicon Valley company called Kitty Hawk piloted a flying car above a scenic lake about 100 miles north of San Francisco.

Kitty Hawk’s flying car, if you insisted on calling it a “car,” looked like something Luke Skywalker would have built out of spare parts. It was an open-seated, 220-pound contraption with room for one person, powered by eight battery-powered propellers that howled as loudly as a speedboat.

The tech industry, as we are often told, is fond of disrupting things, and lately the automakers have been a big target. Cars that use artificial intelligence to drive themselves, for example, have been in development for a few years and can be spotted on roads in a number of cities. And now, coming onto the radar screen, are flying machines that do not exactly look like your father’s Buick with wings.

Silicon Valley is on the case. Problem solved. Now you too can zip around, 15 feet off the ground, at 15 MPH. Without passengers. Or luggage. Or protection from the elements. For about five minutes. Best to do it over water. Wear a helmet. And, as always, “now” means some indeterminate time in the future.

I have to admit that this thing looks kind of cool, in a Daffy Duck in the 25th and 1/2 Century kind of way… (Remember his suit or wings or whatever?) And it is very impressive it actually works – slowly, lowly, and for a very short time.

The Bezos-Gates-Google-Apple, flying, toy drone, Duck Rogers go-cart! Coming to a dealer near you! Sometime. Sometime tomorrow… Next year. 2030. Maybe…

I’ll believe it when I fly it.
