SHUTTING DOWN CHOP: Seattle's leftist mayor now up to her keister in alligators.

ADDED: Seattle Mayor Durkan very upset that CHOP's 'Summer of Love' has landed at her house.

I can't imagine why.

AMERICA'S PROBLEM is systemic liberalism.

WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for June 30, 2020:

[Note the scale changes from Friday's update] Well. The data is back to normal after Thursday's sudden increase in deaths. The cumulative death curve is still struggling to flatten (it will only when the daily deaths go to zero), and the daily trend in deaths -- post spike -- is continuing down.

We're well on our way to building herd immunity; the estimated number of uninfected Americans is now 54.391%, continuing to drop by about a half percent (or 1.6M people) per day. The death rate is also continuing its drop, today at 0.0859%.

After the Deep State HealthScare apparachiks (Dr.'s Birx, Fauci, Redfield) reappeared today to warn possible doubling -- almost tripling -- of infections in the near future if we continue reopening, I'm more and more convinced that some Deep Stater spiked the data (pun intended) last week. Today's reappearance of the Fearsome Threesome doesn't strike me as coincidental.

Georgia is still open (so far). The sharp spike in new cases appears to be leveling out. and daily deaths are still declining, albeit more slowly.

DIE EARLY: Move to a blue city.

IF DEMOCRATS WIN, "Enjoy your new overlords. They may not grant your every wish, but they will stop those Bible-clinging 'deplorables' from triggering your delicate sensibilities."

WHY? SHE'S THE PERFECT DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST: Past praise for the late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro has some Miami-area Democrats worried about a lawmaker (Rep. Karen Bass [D-CA]) said to be in the running to join the Biden ticket.

She also has the name for the job....

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE REPUBLICAN AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY: A Voice of Sanity and Truth.

IT'S ONLY HATE SPEECH when we say it is.

THE DIPLOMAD: The West is breeding ravens.

We have before us quite possibly the most pampered, ill-mannered, ignorant, and arrogant generation in Western history. Notice how many seem to have no problem festooning themselves with expensive tattoos and gym clothing, and nesting in highly expensive and tony metropolises such as New York, Seattle, San Francisco, and London. Many, if not most, seem to engage in no-known labor, but have the time and resources to flap around, preening and playing at revolution, while, as noted, recording themselves on their pricey "smart phones." Not the grubby sans-culotte of 1780s France -- not even close -- these mobsters are well-fed, nicely clothed, healthy and wealthy cretins -- highly privileged and violence-prone cretins, bird brains, ravens.

It's time to quit breeding them and start shooting them.

REP. JERROLD NADLER [D-NY]: Only certain lives matter.

THE BEST RESPONSE to a pandemic is to let society function as normal.

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: Trump will win if he responds to righteous voter rage.

ONE DEAD, ONE CRITICALLY INJURED: Just another day in Antifastan.

THANKS TO LIBERALS, we're now living in Bizarro World.

OK, YOU GO FIRST: 'Obnoxious, Trump-voting, heterosexual, balding Iranian-American' law professor calls on his White colleagues to resign to make way for Black law professors.

Heh.

OF COURSE HE IS: Trump is right.

DAMNED IF I KNOW: Surrounded by government failure, why do people still believe?

Hope springs eternal, I guess....

ON HIS 90TH BIRTHDAY: An Underappreciated American Scholar.

May he live forever.

AFTER ALL, Brennan was a Communist.

WELL, YES. ARE THE WHEELS COMING OFF IN ATLANTA? The police force has backed off. Black lives are being lost as a result.

On a related note, my soon-to-be next door neighbors have long had a second/vacation/retirement cabin here in the north Georgia mountains. They're selling their home in Atlanta and moving up here soon.

NANCY PELOSI: Nationwide mask requirement is ‘long overdue.’

What is 'long overdue' is Nancy Pelosi's retirement from government.
