Another report completed by Captain Obvious

It turns out working in remote, geographically separated locations sucks. Who knew? Well, everyone who’s ever worked at one for one. Anyone they in turn have told how shitty their assignment was for another, so basically everyone in the military. We don’t threaten to send people to Thule, Greenland or Antarctica because they’re hidden gems […]

House appropriators fund Hawaii missile defense radar, but Guam, you’re F***ed

As if it wasn’t bad enough that the Navy Department sends enough sailors and Marines there to risk capsizing the island (hat tip to Rep. Hank Johnson [D-GA] for alerting us to the potential for disaster), our far-east island territory is not gonna be getting more missile defense. Hawaii will though. Guam, situated in the […]

The stupid is strong with this one

KoB sends in word that Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC), the non-voting delegate from DC to the US House of Representatives has introduced legislation of real substance for her constituents.

A Questionable Act

Isn’t inciting a riot a punishable offense under the real laws? If so, then why is Maxine Waters (she who has to stir the pot repeatedly) sticking her oar into it? And one should rightfully ask just what she means by the use of “we”, when she is only in that crowd to get in […]

Today is the day!

More Gun Rights Violations On the Ticket
