I’m always gobsmacked whenever anyone gets in bed with Donald Trump—either literally or figuratively—because, for one, he never shows love or loyalty to anyone and, for another … ew, gross. Last week, we discovered that glitching espresso machine cum coffee boy Rudy Giuliani wants Trump to pay him for his legal...

Who failed: “The FedEx gunman legally purchased his two semiautomatic rifles just a few months after the police seized a shotgun from him amid concerns about his mental health. Authorities apparently didn’t consider him subject to Indiana’s red flag law.” “Red flag”laws only work when they’re properly applied: Indianapolis police...
It looks like New York City just had a narrow escape: 18-year-old from Ohio arrested with AK-47 in Times Square subway station, police say (CNN)An 18-year-old from Ohio is facing weapons charges after officers patrolling a Times Square subway station on Friday found him with an AK-47 and a loaded...
[Edit: Response to some comments below] Some of the comments have pointed out that the gun pictured is only an AK-47 knockoff, or some other kind of gun that doesn’t shoot as many bullets or as fast as the real thing. That misses the point: This person was carrying a...
I’m not even sure what to do with this. I’m gobsmacked. Oh, he was a man, eh? I guess that means it’s okay for the cops to shoot him. What other conclusion can you possibly take from this ribbon of rancid tripe dribbling out the malignant maw of one Sean...
Still early and a far too familiar pattern has been repeated today in Boulder, Colorado. 10 are dead including one first responding police officer. More information has yet to be revealed much like the shootings in Atlanta. If only Republicans were as concerned about checking the backgrounds of people who...
Taking bear repellent to a gunfight doesn’t work in all states. This event, still being investigated in Denver unfortunately replicates the incident in Portland where a RW counter-protester assumed that leftist protesters were not armed with guns. In that case, the shooter was hunted down by a US Marshalls SWAT...
I cover a lot of U.S. Senate races and I really try to keep a focus on the ones that are the closest so I tend to overlook some races. I’m not worried about the New Hampshire U.S. Senate race but I decided to do some digging on U.S. Senator...
One month ago, Mayor Pete appeared on Fox News and utterly demolished them when they tried to justify Trump attacking and smearing our fighting men and women in uniform. They had a D-list anchor who was out of his league trying to attack, and it did not go well. I...
More Florida men-a-tee, standing their ground even as it moves beneath them at 101 mph, hot brass flying around the cabin of the pickup truck. Shooter appears to have shot through a partially opened driver side window, and then there’s that jump-cut to the front-facing image of presumably the target vehicle; OTOH he...
From Forbes: At a rally in Minnesota, President Trump described an MSNBC anchor hit by a rubber bullet while covering protests after the death of George Floyd in May as “a beautiful sight,” comments quickly condemned by journalists including CNN’s Jake Tapper. “Absolutely heinous,” Tapper said on Twitter Saturday afternoon....

‘We’re all safe because of law enforcement’ Trump says in Kenosha where a cop shot a Black man in the back 7 times x Can we just pay to run this as an ad across the country? #Strokeahontas pic.twitter.com/MC6j6oEYW6— MeidasTouch.com (@MeidasTouch) September 1, 2020 How weird is it for Trump,...
x x YouTube Video LMPD is saying that this video shows that David McAtee fired first. There is no sound on the two videos. And to be honest, I am having a difficult time seeing where McAtee fired a shot. I am being sincere. I was wondering if the...
How much will night four of George Floyd protests be more violent. One person died last night. Are you distracted from 102,000 deaths yet? 70 people were arrested in NYC protests. 44 meatpacking workers have died.

This story gets stranger as the 3rd precinct police building has burned to the ground in Minneapolis, Minnesota. If police have gotten bolder in resorting to deadly force with suspects in custody, so too has the response in an age of Black Lives Matter. Video recording in the years post-Rodney...
Scene is now secure. Two people shot, one suspect in custody. Suspect may have posted a video identifying himself and discharging rounds seemingly at random. x I saw 2 victims with my own eyes. Not sure how many others I saw the shooter. Being told not to say anything else...
A reminder that Rove is advising IMPOTUS*’ or his campaign of death. More “flooding the zone” so we ignore the cray-cray at the White House. x So Mitch McConnell said Pres. Obama âÂÂshould have kept his mouth shutâ and now Karl Rove called his commencement talk a âÂÂpolitical drive-by shootingâ and...
In a plea to get the media to cover something else than the damning impeachment vote, a Denver conservative radio show host, Chuck Bonniwell, literally said on the air that he wished “a nice school shooting” would interrupt the coverage. Right up the road is Columbine High School, site of one of the...
A troubling element of the murder-suicide in Saugus is that the firearm used was a “homemade” or rather home-assembled gun, put together with a parts kit. This subset of the firearms industry has little regulation for such “kit guns”. Unlike home manufacture using 3-d printers, the individual components are available from a variety...
