If John Peel, the man who set up what was the most respected police department

in the world, were to come back to life, he'd be going through Brit police offices with a flail, starting at the Chiefs and working his way down.

Read these words from a victim of one of the rape/slavery gangs:
Days ago, she disclosed that South Yorkshire Police contacted her, asking she delete online posts about the gangs and not report on “Rotherham professionals.”

If confirmed, it proves—despite everything, concrete proof of the cover-ups, etc.—the same problems persist.
'Same problems' including corrupt cops, politicians, and bureaucrats who want all this to go away.  And the cops are really unhappy about anyone actually talking about what they've done and, I'd guess, still are doing.  

If you want to read this,  you can find the start here.   Just below her picture is a 'Unroll available on thread reader' link that will let you see each section.

And I'll repeat what I said when the Met Police Chief started threatening to arrest us here for telling him and his little Janissaries just what bastards they are: come get some.

Ah, the smell of desperation and threats is in the air

Elon Musk's inflammatory messages on X are reportedly being examined by Government counter-extremism officers.

The Home Office unit has ramped up the monitoring of the world richest man's posts in order to analyse the risk they pose to Britain, reported The Mirror.

A government source told the newspaper: 'We keep a close eye on how disinformation and hate can proliferate, including online.'

The reported probe comes after the Tesla owner launched a barrage of attacks on the Government on his X social media site.

He has targeted Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and other senior ministers over Labour's rejection of a new national inquiry into grooming gangs.

And the true "DON"T LISTEN TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN!!" warning:
Sir Keir has argued a new public inquiry would 'delay' action on tackling child sexual exploitation.

Why, of COURSE it would! Whatever else could delay action?

I know, I know!
The PM has also pointed out that recommendations from a seven-year investigation chaired by Professor Alexis Jay, which reported in 2022, have not yet been implemented.
Lovely people.  Delay as much as possible, get recommendations, and then sit on them.

I wonder how many raped/murdered children that translates to per year?  Assuming we ever find out?

Forgot to his 'publish' on the last one until now,

so a couple more things.

Starmer wants a real investigation like Gov. Hair Gel wants real responsibility for anything he's done,  And the other Labour clowns, which includes lots of prosecutors and police, are right up there with Starmer.


Speaking of Hair Gel, part of the consequences of his and the rest of the Left's sanctuary crap: arsonists being protected by it.


The Dept. of 'Justice' has this much leftover money and personnel to do this?  Time for a big cut in both.

And I'm out of time.

A mix of things to report on

Two bills in Congress, one telling the ATF to knock the BS off, and another saying "Screw this, stop trying to make new rules before you leave office."

The second would be nice, but the chance of Dettelbach & Co. not helping screw things, well, not good.  The bill to get rid of ATF also includes
In addition to getting rid of the ATF, the press release says Rep. Burlison is preparing legislation to repeal the 1934 National Firearms Act, or NFA, which he said, “unjustly taxes, registers, and restricts American gun owners.”
True, every word.  

Now, chances of?  Not good on getting rid of the agency, not enough of a majority and too many of what there is being too squishy.  Getting rid of the NFA, the leftists will scream bloody murder, but there is, I think, a chance of that.  Or at least getting things from it to the level of, say, a 4473 to buy a suppressor, some things like that.  We'll see.


Over in (formerly Great)Britain, no wonder the Labour side doesn't want a real investigation into child rape, it just might cause too many problems for their members.
Note that it says 'arrested following a sting operation by citizen pedophile hunters', which might have delighted some but otherwise probably pissed off the cops that they had to do something.

Also along the line, long piece about one of the big "He cleaned it up!" guys.  Slight problem: 
Afzal’s role is clear: the ‘star’ NW Chief Prosecutor runs cover for the ‘it’s not just Muslims’ sleight-of-hand (assisted, note, by Vaz himself who obscures the matter by solely referring to ‘race’ and not religion).
Good piece on some of the maneuvers covering for some of the evildoing.

Ah, such a wonderous collection of idiocy from hives of scum and villainy

Starting right here in the US, in one of the hives you'd imagine:
All of Manley’s 70 plus firearms were unerringly compliant with federal law and the strict firearms laws of Maryland.

When all was said and done, no arrests were made and no firearms or ammunition were seized. The only item taken was Manley’s cell phone.

The family’s home, however, was left in a shambles: front and rear doors shattered, windows broken, floors ruined from flashbang grenades, and dog excrement the family was left to clean up themselves.

Manley told Williams they had only lived in the house for three months when the raid occurred.

To date, the ATF has not issued an explanation for why the raid was conducted, much less publicly apologized for terrorizing the family. Mrs. Manley said the search warrant indicated her husband was a felon in possession of firearms. Manley, however, said he does not have a felony record, he does not sell guns, he does not have any machine guns, and he is still in the dark as to why he was targeted. “To this day we just don’t know,” he told Williams.
Sounds just like another 'the process is the punishment' action by a bunch of criminals hiding behind federal IDs, doesn't it?


The BBC, which appears to be the official spokesweasels for Two Tier & Co., are really pissed at Musk for daring to call out the Labour Party on trying to shut up anyone talking about why said Labour helped let an inconvenient minority rape- and from the sound of it, keep raping, a bunch of 'Who cares about them?' girls.

Keep in mind that Labour voted to try to keep a lid on this; apparently the idea of 'Sunlight is the best disinfectant' just scares hell out of them.


Now let's come back to the US:
In this case, the Mayor of LA got back(wonder if it was because she thought she needed to be there, or too much bad press about being in Ghana?), and a reporter asked her a serious question, and she froze.  And then walked out.


Jake Tapper & Co. are shit.  And I hope they lose their ears, tails, and what passes for testicles.


Y'know, we're left wondering by just how small a line kept a bunch of people being murdered on Jan. 6, and I have to think that the concern by Milley that giving that order might have cause him  real problems was the line.


And one last thing on Britain.
By the way, part of the mess of this is we don't know how much is happening here, and we do know that our 'progressive managerial class/elites' is just as poisonous here as in Britain.  Back to the quote:
The depth of the contempt the white progressive managerial class has for the white working class is all too evident; their oikophobia is rampant. The primary responsibility for these horrific acts belongs to the mostly Pakistani Muslim perpetrators. Yet it was the weakness and systemic failures of those with responsibility for protecting their own girls which should make us angriest. For them progressive ideology, especially immigration and multiculturalism, was so important that it was worthwhile sacrificing tens of thousands of working-class white girls.

Ultimate responsibility lies with our politicians. These politicians are keen on punishing hate crimes. If there was ever a hate crime it was when groups of mainly Pakistani Muslims targeted vulnerable white girls on racial and religious grounds for industrial-scale rape and torture. These hate crimes were ignored.

These horrific crimes would not have been allowed to continue unabated if our politicians had not prioritised multiculturalism and vote gathering, a combination of progressive ideology and moral corruption. The white girls were simply the wrong victims, their suffering got in the way of the progressive narrative. If it had been Asian girls the story might have been different.

This scandal touched the whole of Britain, yet the current Labour government refuses to hold a national inquiry, as Laura Perrins wrote in TCW yesterday. It is to be left to local authorities with limited resources to investigate these crimes. One doesn’t need to be cynical to ask who is being protected and which voting bloc appeased.

It does the Conservative Party little good to try to assume the high moral ground and call for a national inquiry. They have just emerged from 14 years in power when they did nothing. The police would not have ignored these crimes without strong political backing and instruction.

It appears another court just said "No, you can't take their guns

just because they've been charged, NOT convicted."

Yes, I'm about to go off on those islands some of my ancestors got the hell out of

LONDON — The grooming and serial rape of thousands of English girls by men of mostly Pakistani Muslim background over several decades is the biggest peacetime crime in the history of modern Europe. It went on for many years. It is still going on. And there has been no justice for the vast majority of the victims.
...
Social workers were intimidated into silence. Local police ignored, excused, and even abetted pedophile rapists across dozens of cities. Senior police and Home Office officials deliberately avoided action in the name of maintaining what they called “community relations.” Local councilors and Members of Parliament rejected pleas for help from the parents of raped children. Charities, NGOs, and Labour MPs accused those who discussed the scandal of racism and Islamophobia. The media mostly ignored or downplayed the biggest story of their lifetimes. Zealous in their incuriosity, much of Britain’s media elite remained barnacled to the bubble of Westminster politics and its self-serving priorities.
There's oh, so much blame to go around: politicians in both parties(some because it served them, some too chickenshit to act), 'public servants' from child 'protective' services to cops*; and let us  not forget journalists.  Oh no, the garbage who've insisted they were the only ones you should be news from, and were busy fellating politicians the whole while(and serving their own socialist dreams), who helped cover it up and wouldn't dare say a word...

And let us not forget all the other crap done by these bastards in the name of 'community service', for instance
The Pakistanis proceeded to take Kriss, who they called a "white bastard", to a remote location and torture him for hours -- gouging his eyes out, castrating him, burning him with cigarettes, stabbing him repeatedly, dousing him in gasoline and setting him alight before he crawled to his death.

One of the killers may be back on the streets of Scotland this year.
Because hey, he's just some lousy little Scot, and what's his pain and life to get in the way of community service, right?

Every bit of it with politicians and cops and public servants and journalists helping keep it quiet, and insulting and belittling anyone who spoke up, and jailing people who wouldn't shut up.  Both political parties, let us not forget; including their current Prime Minister, who was head of the Crown Prosecution Service through some of this, and is currently insisting that raising hell about raped girls makes you a 'far rightist'.  Because, apparently, being pissed about this is only a problem of the far right, which isn't it nice to say openly that the left doesn't care about girls raped by inconvenient people?

Let us note, also, how many of the 'Believe All Women!' and '#MeToo" people who had nothing to say when it was the 'wrong' kind of female victims.  I have no terms sufficient to express disgust for them.

And, also. that the left in particular seems to want to destroy the lives of those nasty commoners, in every way possible?  You know, "It's your duty to be living in a small apartment with no car or anything else what will interfere with out Green Dreams!" ?

If you want some more links aside from the ones I put up before, here's a post at WheelGunner.


And now I'm going to move on to this side of the Atlantic:
Couple of day ago I mentioned more than 300K illegal alien kids having disappeared, and there seems to have been damn little done about them.  Not to mention all the politicians on both sides who've managed to avoid taking any responsibility for even talking about it; and oh, the Professional Journalists who've done everything they can, just like their slimy brethren in Britain(and a bunch of other countries) to take the heat off the politicians?  And take heat off the illegal alien criminals?
You know, like the illegal aliens committing crimes such as rape, and murder, and theft?  The gangs taking over apartment buildings("It was only a few, why are you so upset?" to quote that one idiot)?

Second City Cop has talked about the problems of, on top of politicians trying to take pressure off the local bad guys, how much money their Mayor(hereafter knows as Conehead) is willing to spend to keep the illegals in town, and getting money from both local people who don't have anything left to be taxed out of(so he and his masters of the Teacher's Union want the feds to hand them billions)

And, nationwide, how many politicians are willing to vote against illegal aliens who commit sex crimes being deported?

The leftists are just hand in hand(shut up, I'll leave some other descriptions out) with each other, country to country.  And they want to do the same things to us.



*Remember, their cops would jail someone for holding a Union Jack flag, or for saying/writing something 'That might cause someone discomfort', all at the same while helping terrorists, terrorist supporters, and from the sound of it some of the rapists from being called to account.  
Bah.  You garbage need to be fired.
Scratch that: some of you need to be charged as accessories.  At the least.

Ever heard of Wolff Gun Springs?

They're over here.  And at one time I decided to try their stuff on a part.

I'd gotten some various recoil springs from them over time, but once, I was reminded, I'd decided to polish up the action on an old S&W revolver and remembered a set of spring they make.  In this case, mainsprings that drive the hammer, and the springs that return the trigger mechanism to rest position.

Allow me to cover those functions for those who haven't had to mess with them:
The hammer spring is exactly that.  When you pull the trigger back, or pull the hammer back to cock it, that spring is flexed to drive the hammer down when the trigger is pulled.
The trigger return spring is a coil spring that fits inside a passage in the trigger mechanism.  It keeps the trigger in place until you pull it or cock the hammer; when you release the trigger that spring drives it back into rest position.

If you get too light a spring(or grind the original down too much, and no, I can state I've never done this) a hammer spring, it will not reliably drive the hammer hard/fast enough to fire the primer; if it's too heavy it makes it harder to fire.  If the trigger return spring is too light, it will not reliably move things as it should, which means, at best, the trigger will not reliably do its job; if it's heavier than needed, it makes the trigger pull heavier than needs to be.  Both of these are often made heavier than need to be, because a pistol needed for self-defense HAS TO WORK EVERY TIME.  

Which brings us to the monkey holding it.

Say you have a pistol that's for target, or small game.  You want it to have a smooth, light action, and if you do mess up and make it a bit too light, it's not a disaster(unless it makes you blow a 'win the match' shot).  So you have all kinds of 'grind and polish this, shorten that, and polish all these places) ideas, some of which can work, though the polishing can be done to excess and leave things a bit loose.  

Wolff came up with a mainspring design, and a set of different trigger return spring weights.  Idea is you can try their standard weight mainspring and one of their lighter return springs, and make sure if it works reliably* before you go off on your way, and I'd heard various good things about their parts.  So, instead of starting with a touch of polishing in a few places, I decided to try the set.  

The mainspring has a 'V' cross-section, the trigger return springs come in a set of reduced power, 13, 14, and 15 pound springs.  The mainspring can be had in full factory power or a reduced, I chose factory for it; the trigger return I started with 13 pound.

Warning: if you don't know how to change these, or start farting around inside the action, get help.  You have been told.

The inside was nice and clean, so other than change these two parts all I did was put a few drops of oil in places, and reassemble, then try the action.

Holy crap.

I would not have believed that those two springs would not just lighten, but smooth the action that much.  Did some dry firing, and soon as time allowed put some ammo through it.

Worth every penny.  

*They make sure this is known to you, it's up to you to pay attention

Someone just had an interesting idea in yelling at the 'elites' running (formerly Great)Britain:

What are the UK and international rape victim groups doing to stop these horrendous acts?

Why wouldn’t @realDonaldTrump consider appropriate sanctions against the UK until these concerns are addressed?
Hey, the Brit Labour Party sent a team here to interfere in our friggin' election, they threatened to arrest people HERE for daring to criticize their trashing what's left of free speech in Britain.  So let's see if President Trump can tell them "Hey, you bastards have been letting children be raped and enslaved and assisted it happening because "They might cause trouble for us!", so let's cause some trouble for you for being this kind of slimy bastards who use kids lives this way."  That would seem, at the least, like 'Public Officials Using Children To Pay The Enemy Off' as a charge.

The idea of the conniptions it would cause, for both the Brit socialists and the ones here(who'd crap themselves in outrage) is a glorious thought.  Especially when you consider, as Ackerman noted in the full post, that this crap is still going on.  Which is one reason Two Tier & Co. are scared to death of what's liable to happen to them when people find out more of just what they've done, and when.

Let's take a look at some of this

But for the man who loves inquiries, a government-led report into the industrial-scale rape of British girls by migrant grooming gangs is one inquiry too far. Indeed, when Prime Minister Starmer lists national scandals where “truth and justice” was denied by public authorities, grooming gangs do not even merit a mention.

As the conversation about our national grooming gang tragedy reaches a fever pitch, it fell to Safeguarding Minister Jess Phillips to reject Oldham Council’s call for a government-led inquiry into child sexual exploitation. An outspoken feminist, it appears that Phillips’ advocacy for women doesn’t extend as far as the white working class girls who were raped, tortured, and trafficked by Oldham’s Pakistani grooming gang.
And, let's not forget, in all the other cities where it appears this garbage is still going on.

Hey, you know what else comes to mind?  It's what, at least 300,000 illegal immigrant kids that OUR .gov can't account for?  And most of the 'elites' here don't want to deal with questions about it?  Gee, I wonder why...

Which would also account for some of the "Get that man to shut up!" from the Brit 'elites' against Musk, and why it's probably pissing off- and maybe terrifying- some of our elites here.
None of them give a damn about what happens to lower-class females.
None of them give a damn about what happens to parents who are trying to save their kids.
Consider Starmer & Co. were desperate to dump violent criminals so they could have space to jail people who dared to speak about illegal aliens and crime.
Consider our clowns who really don't want anyone digging into just what and by who is being done to those illegal alien kids.
Consider our clowns who want anyone who talks about unapproved subjects to be shut down.

I'm going to throw in cops playing "We have orders, that's what counts!"  There are a lot of them, if Robert Peel came back to life he'd take one look at what his idea of British cops have become, and start looking like he was having a stroke as he picked up a baton and got ready to deal with what they've become.  Then fire them.

Ok, I'm getting a little pissed off and stringing this out too far.  I'm going to go consider a good way to tell my Congresscritters "What the hell ARE you doing about all those missing children?  And about those foreign students taking over campuses? And a few other things I need t bring up?"

While we're working on our current terrorist attacks here, I want to look at what (formerly Great)Britain

has done to cave into the enemy.  To the point that most have surrendered.  To borrow from Ms. Hoyt, "They used to be civilized there, and knew how to deal with politicians and bureaucrats who surrendered like this."

Read this carefully, which is where the cops turned into either janissaries or effing cowards

I really don't need to do this to my blood pressure, but you know what's worse?  "Ah, hell with it, those bastards don't seem to care."
Because a lot of people over there do, while stuck under the thumb of a bunch of ass-kissing politicians and "Well, we've got our orders, and if we actually DO anything we'll be called names!" cops. 

So my closing statement on this:

Hey, Two-Tier Starmer, and whatever the hell the names of your local police chiefs, you don't like my telling you what corrupt, chickenshit, surrender monkeys you are?   Screw you.  YOU PUT PARENTS IN JAIL FOR FINDING WHERE THERE DAUGHTERS WERE BEING RAPED AND ABUSED AND COMING TO YOU FOR HELP.  You LET THE BASTARDS keep doing this until it blew up in your faces and you couldn't count on the media to help you keep covering it up.  And you're still doing it, from what we can see.

Every one of you cowardly little shits should be fired.  As a start, because it seems like 'assistant to rape' and 'conspiring to enslave' should be criminal charges you should be charged with.  Which would have to be done, as you have no shame, or courage to cause you to confess and quit.  Fuck you, one and all. 

Ah, they're on top of it now!

Terrorist made an attack in Louisiana.
EffingBI immediately announced "Not a terrorist attack."  
Local guys announced "The hell you say."
Feds, as someone said 'probably realizing just how stupid they're about to look', decide to announce "It was a terrorist attack."
Probably helped in the decision by the Isis flag in the truck.
Now turns out at least one IED was found, some other people seen planting some, and there's some question about things, whether attached or not, happened in other places.

And, as a final 'WTF?', Biden's statement seems to read like "Don't you dare say anything about any protected species!" as his final warning.

Watch your six, folks, it could get real nasty.

Yeah, the year's about to turn (update)

Awww, my heart weeps for them

"All I did was follow orders and screw people over because the AG wanted it done!"
Yeah, "I was following orders!" doesn't go over real well.  If you want to read it all, it's here.


The EffingBI needs cleaning out, and, if nothing else, the current Director needs to be charged for every time he's lied under oath.  That would put him away for a number of years.


Back to one of my least favorite subjects: our Professional Journalists who helped censor unhappy facts- for some people- about the Wuhan situation.  They and every bureaucrat and politician who tried to- in some cases did- ruin people for daring to speak truth and ask questions, well, I'll refrain from speaking of possible penalties, it might upset someone.

Also, speaking of said asshats, some are trying to set up for 'The Next Pandemic!'  Including that bitch Birx.

Ah, the wonders coming from the same experts

that have changed their minds about what we should be eating allowed to eat.  Again.  Which, considering they consider bugs to be a quite good idea, I'm not too concerned with.


Then we have some other experts, who'll tell us what we're allowed to say, and criticize, and ask questions about.  All for our own good, of course, they'll tell us so.


Turn a bit of attention to the Professional Journalists who insist they're the only experts who can tell us news.  For instance, most of them seem to have not talked about these people.  Who are some of those who, borrowing language from a guy, 
There is a particular kind of fury that comes from the ancient parts of the human psyche. When that thing that lives in the blood and the bone -- that thing made of shadows, and claws, and fangs -- starts a low growl that bypasses hearing, and goes straight to the limbic system.
I give fair warning: that story is enough to bring you to the thoughts of "Well, would would be cruel and unusual punishment for these bastards?"  It's not pleasant reading.  And why so much our Professional Journalists didn't want to report on this will definitely give your attitude a kick in the pants.


My close on this is "Gee, why did F Troop do this?"  Whole range of possibilities, most of which all seem to be on the lines of 'More reasons to get rid of 90% of this agency'.  No, they don't fit with the other stuff this morning, but they think they're the experts who need to control this whole part of our lives, so I'm throwing them in.

I have no time, but for telling Gates what I think of this

I'll make time:
Billionaire Bill Gates is calling for members of the general public to be censored by artificial intelligence (AI) if they question the official narratives regarding “vaccines.”

Gates, the Jeffrey Epstein-linked co-founder of Microsoft, made the call during a recent interview with CNBC.

He was discussing the “threat” of “anti-vaxxers” and promoting plans for handling “vaccine hesitancy” using “real-time” censorship imposed by AI.

Gates argues that those who urge people to avoid vaccines are “inciting violence.”

Therefore, he insists that “anti-vaxxers” are a “threat” to public health.
And I'm sure he restrained himself from adding "How dare you commoners defy Me?"

Fuck you, Gates, for all the harm you've done and plan to do.  Go to hell, and I hope it's a long and unfriendly trip.

So it's Christmas Eve, and I have some things

for all you people(all six or eight of you)

Merry Christmas, and so forth

Annealing cases, small stuff(Ok, one more thing because I forgot to publish it a couple of days ago)

By the way: this is one of those projects I realized would make a good post, and then thought "Would've been better if I'd thought of this before I got everything cleaned up."

Also, the Disclaimer:
I'm doing this after having read on the subject and tried some things over time.  It may not work the same for you, depending on individual factors.  Also, it involves fire.  So if you burn yourself or heat something you shouldn't have, or in a bad location, that's on you.

I've written something on the subject before, but I can't find the posts right now.  Those cases it was mostly annealing .45-70, but this is smaller stuff: .32 Smith & Wesson Long.  It's an old cartridge, at one time it was commonly used as a self-defense round, at one time a lot of police departments, including New York City, had it as their issue sidearm.  Now it's primarily a target and small-game cartridge.  More on that later.

Annealing is heating a metal up to a suitable temperature to relieve stress in the metal, in the case of cartridge cases mostly in the neck/shoulder area where repeated resizing and firing has caused the metal to work harden.  One of the things that can cause is, in the case of lower pressure loads, the case cannot expand as well as should, which means the case isn't sealing the chamber as well as should, which can leave fouling streaks on the outside of the case.  Which was the problem here.

With brass it's usually heating the affected area up to about 650-700 degrees F, which softens the area heated without any softening of the base area; that has to be harder to help hold against high-pressure stresses.  In most, if you overheat the base area you might as well crush it and put it in the scrap bucket.  The usual method of preventing that is to put the base either in a holder that acts as a heat sink, or applying the heat in a short enough time that the base area doesn't heat up that much; often dumping it in water when done to make sure.

Here I picked up a cheap cake pan, stacked a bunch of resized and mouth-expanded cases in lines(so I could keep track of where I was), added enough water to cover the lower 1/4 of the case, and got out the propane torch.  Based on earlier work with larger cases, a little watching showed that with the torch set with the inner blue flame at X length, holding that part of the flame about 1/2" above the mouth of the case, took about 4-5 seconds to get the color I wanted.  Ran through about a hundred, then dried them thoroughly and loaded some using a load from the newer Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook, using a 100-grain semi-wadcutter bullet.

The result was wonderful.  The cases showed no sign of gas leakage around/below the case mouth, and no sign of the cases being overheated or damaged.  

Depending on what you're shooting, it may not be worth it to you to reload cases after they get a bit too hard.  Or, for some cartridges, it may well be so.

Among other things, we have Musk and some others taking that 1500 pages of bloat

the Democrats and some Republicans called the 'necessary Continuing Resolution, and used a AI search engine to find all the bullshit they larded in, which let them start telling people about all of it.  Including

This is one of the upsides of Elon Muck buying Twitter and getting rid of most of the "I don't like what this post says, let's kill it and if he does it again kill the account" leftists; it made it easy to get around the Major Media censorship work and let people know exactly what's going on.

And it's giving the left conniptions.

One of the disgusting things done in this was to put money for disaster relief, for the people FEMA has been either ignoring or screwing over, in this and then insisting "You have to pass all of it or there won't be any relief money!"

Now, this one is special in a good way.  Apparently the Poles, having dealt with Russia feeling froggy many times over the centuries, decided "We need to pour Roundup on this sprouting problem right now."

"That was every rifle in Poland being function tested at once."

Germany is getting even more of that Cultural Enrichment their 'Elites' insist on.  Which is likely going to include follow-ons like politicians learning about the fine old 'get their attention' method of tar and feathers.


Speaking of politicians and bureaucrats who need a real attention-getting...


Once again a foreign news source brings the information most of our media won't touch unless forced to.
Only people surprised: leftists and Biden lovers who've had outbursts of "Deep fakes!" and such.

And last for tonight: If you haven't seen Area Ocho, you ought to take a look.

An awful lot of people seem to think the murder of an insurance company executive is just fine,

because "He is behind Bad Things!" and "It sends a message to the others!"

Ok, let's play that game.  How many government agencies can you think of who've ruined people, harassed people, even taken people's lives for really bad reasons('to send a message', 'No, we didn't need to do a raid, but we did it anyway!', 'Hey, we're the (fill in alphabet designation) and we can do this!", "Our work is important and we need to be able to do this!")?  

So, will all those leftists and young dumbasses be ok if people get fed up and start doing bad things to one of the agents/agencies involved?  Or will it be "But it's different when they/we do it, and we like what they did!" again?

If "They did harm to my family/friend/land" becomes the standard for "It's good someone did this", that's a bad path to start down.

Obviously, I can’t prove that West Point was deliberately trying to make Pete look bad, or that ProPublica would have moved forward with their "bombshell" story had Pete not proved them wrong before publishing. I can only assure you that LOTS of bureaucrats currently employed by the US Military do NOT want to work for Pete Hegseth. And it seems equally clear that ProPublica isn't all that interested in writing stories about bureaucrats who actively and repeatedly misinform them. And that's a pity.

That man can move.


Some of the BS Hegseth needs to clean out.

Well, you and your British Labour comrades have basically told the islamists that they're protected from consequences and can get away with all kinds of crap, so what did you expect?


Connected, thanks to the commies and general leftist idiots here,
Could campus protests against Israel turn violent?
Well, duh.  So many of our institutions of 'higher education' have coddled and encouraged these Jew-haters to the point they're pretty sure they'll have at least some protection, so yes, they almost certainly will.

I'm reminded of a guy who bitched about a cop shooting his friend because 'It was only a little knife!'

According to Leroy Schumacher, even though his grandson was in the middle of a burglary when he was killed, his death was unjustified, Tulsa’s ABC 8 reported. The grieving grandfather acknowledged that breaking into a house was “stupid,” but he said that the AR-15 gave the homeowner’s son an “unfair” advantage over the three burglars and that death wasn’t the appropriate consequence for the teens.
Well, the basic emotion is 'Too damned bad.'  

But wait, there's MORE!
It all began with 21-year-old Elizabeth Rodriguez, who authorities believe was the ring leader. Rodriguez, a mother-of-three in need of rent money, drove 19-year-old Maxwell Cook, 16-year-old Jake Woodruff, and 17-year-old Jacob Redfearn — who she says all lived with her — to the Wagoner County home. They first stole liquor, speakers, and a machete from the garage, but then, Rodriguez said they “got greedy.”

After deciding to break into the main house, the young men, wearing all black, donning masks, and armed with brass knuckles and a knife, went inside while Rodriguez waited with a teenage girl in the getaway car. Zachary Peters, the homeowner’s 23-year-old son, was taking a nap when he heard a door slam and glass shatter at approximately 12:30 in the afternoon, according to News On 6. Peters grabbed his father’s rifle before coming face to face with the three suspects, who all froze when they saw him.

So, they armed themselves before breaking into the house, too.  Which does not speak of good intentions.  Guy, it's too bad your grandkid is dead, but it's worse that he made the decisions that put him in that place and time, and I cannot fault the homeowner's son for shooting.  Because, among other things, three armed criminals against one isn't exactly 'fair'.

Michael Byrd, the Capitol cop, is a serious piece of crap

It seems some of those missing files about disciplinary action have turned up, and yeah, he's worse than we already knew.
A source with detailed knowledge of the Internal Affairs Division case told Blaze News that Byrd was charged with abandoning his post, eating and drinking at his post, and lying to investigators — a terminable offense. It is one of three Byrd disciplinary cases for which records could not be found when a House oversight subcommittee requested them in early 2024, the source said.
...
“It’s funny to me that everyone knows Mike’s a liar and the case that sustains it that had all the evidence that shows he is a liar is something that Tad [DiBiase] and the department can’t find when there’s all these different records. If they just did a search on the emails, all this stuff, it would be in existence.”
Can you say 'The fix is in'?

And a ways further down,
DiBiase wrote that the USCP could help Byrd obtain mental health assistance, “but not move forward on a FFDE [fitness for duty evaluation] since a negative one could mean we should not allow him to carry our USCP-issued firearm if he is not fit to be a police officer.

Read it all, including all the money involved, and some of the politicians giving some.

Wray needs to be put under oath with the sure knowledge that this time,

he lies, he WILL be prosecuted for it.  And note the IG brings this out AFTER the election.  For some reason.
Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s investigation of the Capitol Hill Riot found no undercover FBI agents attended. Still, over two dozen confidential human sources (DHS) were at the event.

However, the FBI only assigned three of the sources to attend on January 6:
Which tells us the IG is full of shit.

More.

And more.

Have I ever mentioned Fecesbook is run by idiots?

At best?


I'm tired, so instead of more work tonight,
Here's a Democrat bigshot who's actually described himself as a revolutionary communist telling some people "The Democrat Party has screwed up badly, and it's still doing it."


What Trudumbass and the leftists have done to Canada, all in the name of Diversity! and Anti-Colonialism!

So far they've been lucky; it won't last.


Byrd, the Capitol cop who murdered Ashli Babbitt... Well, read this:
...In September 2021, Byrd attempted to personally purchase a shotgun but failed to pass the background check required by federal law. Byrd subsequently sought USCP’s help in resolving the issue with his background check.26 After learning that Byrd failed his background check, USCP took steps to provide him with a USCPissued shotgun and intended to “lend” him a shotgun even if his background check “did not come through.”27 Ultimately, Byrd failed his shotgun proficiency and was not provided a USCP-issued shotgun.
Consider: not only did this CAPITOL COP fail a NICS check, but the agency was going to loan him one "...even if his background check did not come through."... 
They were going to PROVIDE a gun to a guy who failed the background check?  Really?  Don't people go to jail for that?

AND he couldn't pass the shotgun class?  And he's still a cop?
Note: yes, I've posted on this before, but that "We were gonna give him one anyway" bit just stood out to me today.


More from Canuckistan:
A generation of white children are being raised to hate themselves, to hate their culture, to hate their ancestors, to perceive nothing in their heritage but bigotry, hatred, oppression, and barbarism. Their minds are being overwritten with the values and morality of an alien culture, with the explicit goal of forever terminating their connection with everything that came before. The wages of this deracination are depression and drug addiction, just as one would expect ... but it’s for their own good and all for a good cause. And besides, they’re receiving the gold standard of education.
Yeah, punishing KIDS now for what someone else did quite a while ago is not a good idea.

That's it, folks.  I'm beat, and it's time to see about food.

Where does the time go?

Traveling, and getting things done at various places.  Occasional bloggage will continue for the foreseeable future

Yes, some dickhead has reported a bunch of posts for 'community standards' violations

And Blogger, apparently run by the same kind of dickheads that run Fecesbook, has no way I can find to say "Would you pretty please tell me just what the violation was?"

Idiots.

Also, from the chronicles of terrorist supporters- also known as 'Higher' Education,

Columbia University


and one of the latest additions to the Caliphate(where the cops are just Janissaries serving their new masters) in Britain.

On a more happy note, why aren't all you folks building up these numbers?


Now I must close because I've got some things to do before I rest, see you whenever

Still fairly busy, still posting occasionally(less at times), so (updated)

"Why don't you trust the Major Media? We are PROFESSIONALS!"

Yeah, and you taught us not to trust you.
She took it to the CBS executives and they told her she “couldn’t do it live.”

She asked, “What do you mean I can’t do it live?”

“Well, we don’t know what he’s going to say” was their replay according to Herridge.

She said she replied to her bosses, “Isn’t that what journalism is all about?”

Herridge explained that CBS then tried to condition the interview with possible alternatives, including having it edited, taped, and only on CBS. She said she felt so ashamed that a news organization would place so many restrictions on an interview like that that she couldn’t go back to Elon Musk, the free speech advocate. But it indicates how fearful CBS was that something that they might not want to come out might come out in such an interview. When you think that way, you’re no longer operating as a journalistic organization. You should want to report on the truth, whatever it is.

Herridge was then laid off in February when she was also looking into the Hunter Biden laptop story and they laid off other employees.


Also:
Penelope exposed the scare tactics the NYT used, threatening her with consequences if she didn't make a statement.

“They call you and threaten you. They say, ‘Unless you make a statement, we will publish it as is,’” she continued. “I think that’s a despicable way to treat anyone.”
Yeah, that's an awful lot of our Professional Journalists.

First it was "We can't visit those people to see if they need relief help because

"The road is closed, and we can't walk around the barricade!"
Then we had "Those people had Trump signs, and they're kind of like mad dogs and we were told to not talk to them."
Now,

Throw in the State authorities: bunch of Amish show up and build cabins so people can live in those instead of tents while figuring out housing, to have the State show up and say "Those cabins aren't built to our Code, so get out of them and go back to freezing in tents!"

Government: how would you get screwed without it?

A bit of entertainment, if this works Plus an update

If all correct, this takes my opinion of Bill Gates from "He's a miserable bastard"

to "He's actually evil.  Him and everyone else involved in this."


In another case of  "If they're not evil. they're close enough to start building a gallow"; from the sound of it every officer involved in this should be relieved of command.  And court martialed.  And possibly- well, various punishments come to mind.

Dead serious, if this is how these bastards and their political masters(quite possibly paymasters) treat the troops this badly in peacetime...  Floggings for a start, possibly hanging for those actually in charge of this bullshit.

Wirecutter's lost his mother

Damn.

The cop who shot Ashli Babbitt?

The issues in Captain Michael Byrd's background included a failed shotgun qualification test, a failed FBI background check for a weapon's purchase, a 33-day suspension for a lost weapon and referral to Maryland state prosecutors for firing his gun at a stolen car fleeing his neighborhood, according to congressional and police documents obtained by Just the News.

And, it appears, there were other incidents in which 'the records are missing'(surprise!).  

Insty put it "And his protection is disappearing."  Not to mention for the brass in that agency who helped him keep doing this crap.

Aztec death whistles

Some interesting design in the things.


BREAKING: DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is reportedly negotiating his exit and wants to leave immune from any potential investigations from the Trump Administration.
Considering the times he's committed perjury alone, I'd be he wants immunity.


Speaking of another piece of garbage who's about to go and probably highly desires it,
HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra cannot answer why he placed unaccompanied children with sponsors whose address was a strip club. He also cannot explain why he allowed them to be pimped out by individuals with no family ties to them.
Makes you think there's a lot of sex slavery going on that these bastards don't want to do anything about, doesn't it?


And, last thing, from one of those Professional Media Outlets we're supposed to trust:

Riley?  She's just some privileged white girl, who cares about her?
