Marine wins Civil Asset Forfeiture case
Stephen Lara, a 16-year Marine veteran, just won a civil asset forfeiture case against the state of Nevada Highway Patrol (NHP). It would be nice if it was a bellwether for similar cases, but the ruling is pretty narrow. Lara was pulled over for driving under the limit (!) and following a semi too […]
Tuesday follies
Let’s have a cheerful start to a new administration…and like all good vets, we start with a little schadenfreude. (Taking joy in the misfortunes of someone else, roughly.) You think WE have supply problems? Consider Poland’s former logistics Maj. Gen. Artur K?pczy?ski, who was fired January 9th. Seems he not only misplaced supplies, he lied […]
Bin Biden’s bin busy
You should be reading this right before the end of Joe Biden’s term – I know there are those on the left desperately praying for some wild-ass last minute maneuver to have the election nullified, Trump not elected, and all the progressive policies set in stone – sorry, folks, from here it looks like the […]
Saturday Smoke

CPSC says that because the button cell batteries can currently be easily accessed, it poses an ingestion hazard which can cause serious injuries, […]
Christmas Eve Updates
Start with 81-year old Kay Granger (R- Dallas). She hasn’t cast a vote in Congress since July this year, and according to the Dallas Express, she is living at a care home dealing with dementia issues. And beginning in January 2023 she spent more than a year as the chairperson of the powerful House appropriations […]
Court stuff
Well, the biggest item has to be that Trump’s suit against George Stephanopoulus settled without a trial, and ABC got socked with a cool $15 million which goes to the Trump Library (if and when it gets built. Can Don read?) Trump filed a defamation suit against Stephanopoulos after he asserted that Trump was found […]
They just approach things differently
I keep seeing all these articles on China’s rapidly increasing capabilities. Now, in the past, manufacturers called the Chinese the best thieves on the planet – not innovators at all, but let a prototype or plan each them and they would “liberate” the designs, and have a version of the product hitting the market […]
