Mansplainin’ to the wrong person

  It has been largely ignored, but the House has been holding hearings on DHS, presumably with the aim of impeaching DHS chief Mayorkas. Partisanship is, of course, on full display (after all, the Democrats just know the border is in fine shape.) Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., told a mother who lost her daughter to […]

Trump White House didn’t know military from civilian?

Seems the White House Medical Unit didn’t know who was eligible care for what care – or didn’t care. Under the Trump administration, the White House Medical Unit — a joint Defense Department team that provides medical care for the president, vice president and family members and also manages health services for certain high-level officials […]

Say it ain’t so, Joe, and Rooshian AWACs

You have to love how often the pols of today have to eat crow for what they said yesterday. We just recently saw where Joe Biden called out the need for border security when he was running for office… apparently since then he has changed his mind. Or forgotten which border. Or forgotten what a […]

Lets start with a piece of good news, for once: A Mac Haik dealership in Flowood, MS sold a Demon 170 (the hyper-fast 1025 hp Challenger) to a service member at $50,000 over retail. Yeah, $50,000. Mac Haik’s chain is well known for gouging everyone, so this isn’t unusual by itself according to Jalopnik. Mac […]

A year starts with contrasts: LCPL Dural vs. dirtbags

We lost a good kid December 19th, it seems. The Marines are being closemouthed, saying LCPL Nicholas Dural died “on duty” as an embassy guard in The Republic of Congo. Other than that, no details have been released and even his father would not provide more specifics. Nicholas Dural adored his two sisters, and they […]

Gaston Glock, dead at 94

I know there are a lot of folks in the world, including me, who like guns. Nice guns. Blued steel, walnut, maybe some tasteful engraving?
