YET ANOTHER TRANS SHOOTER and I think I know why.

Transgender-identifying people have exploded in number, the Left has been pushing transgender ideology on society, mental illness has been reclassified as “neurodiversity,” and a victimhood mentality and narrative of “cisgender” people being oppressors has permeated our educational institutions.

KURT SCHLICHTER: Our incompetent elite are opening up have opened up America to attack.

What is happening to us is ... almost exclusively the wage of the progressive project.

MAYORKAS' BONE-CHILLING RESPONSE to impeachment proceedings.

"When behind closed doors, we told him, 'You are getting ready to be impeached.' He said, 'You're not going to like who comes next.' I asked him if that was a threat, and he smiled."

The full post is (unfortunately) behind the PJ Media VIP firewall.

#JOURNALISM: They want us to be weak, frightened, and easily led.

One hour of watching television commercials should convince anyone....

WHY SHOULD YOU EVER LISTEN TO ANYTHING A GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRAT HAS TO SAY AGAIN? Fauci's latest admissions are the death of expertise.

Reminder: the definition of expert ['ex', meaning 'has-been' and 'spurt', meaning 'drip under pressure'] applies especially to government-designated experts.

WITH PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: A new way to teach mathematics.

It's not enough for the schools to just instill theory. The purpose of education, as I keep saying, is to produce young adults with marketable skills. Those industrial arts programs did that. So does this Wasilla High School program.

“IT WAS NOT A GOOD IDEA.” Now we know who thought it was a good idea for Biden to deliver his angry speech.

It was 'Angry Joe' himself.

CIVIL WAR II? If a new civil war does come, it will be on account of the intransigence of the same party that started the first one.

I'm hopeful it will be resolved peacefully by the 2024 elections, but I'm not sanguine about it.

SEN. JOSH HAWLEY [R-MO] sets Biden's climate agenda on fire during hearing:

HAWLEY: Let's talk a little bit about who's really benefiting from this administration's climate agenda, and from these draconian electric vehicle mandates. So, Mr. Turk, you've already alluded to this. I know you know the answers to these questions. Currently, one nation accounts for 60 percent of the world's electric vehicle production. That nation is?

TURK: China

HAWLEY: One nation accounts for 76 percent of the world's lithium battery production. That nation is?

TURK: China

HAWLEY: Yet, your administration, the president's administration, the mandates that you put in place require that two-thirds of our new vehicle sales in just the next eight years be electric vehicles. Your policies are driving us and our supply chains into the hands of our greatest geo-strategic enemy, enriching them, enriching their government while forcing Americans to pay for electric vehicles that on average cost $7,000 more, on average than a traditional vehicle, are more expensive to repair and insure, require more frequent replacement of everything from tires to component parts.

So, Mr. Turk, why is it good for the American worker that we force our supply chains to a country that is our greatest rival and adversary, and why is it good for the American consumer?

BECAUSE BLACKS ARE FLEEING THE PLANTATION? Democrats talk about illegal immigrants the same way they used to talk about slaves.

THEY'RE CONTROL FREAKS: How bureaucrats ruin everything from dishwashers to gas cans to cars.

IT CAN'T COME TOO SOON. Is this the beginning of the end of the $2,000,000,000,000 dollar administrative state?

[That's 'trillion' for those who can't count the number of zeros without taking their shoes off.]

"WE MUST NORMALIZE MASSACRES." But only if they're against groups disfavored by the Left.

IT MUST BE GLOBAL WARMING: NYC sees first snow accumulation in two years.

OK, this one's aged a bit, but it's still food for the aliens amongst us....

THEY'RE NOT DESIGNED TO KEEP YOU WELL. They're designed to keep you dependent.

SPEAKER JOHNSON'S SPINE STIFFENS as Senate Republicans try to surrender on the border.

And he won. Keep it up, Mr. Speaker.

NO, THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE A VIABLE PLAN A. Do Democrats have a viable 'Plan B' for the run-up to the 2024 election?

Well, other than cheating....

NOT SO: That’s ‘President Magoo’ to you, buster!

Mr. Magoo was both blind and oblivious but he was at least coherent....

YES, THEY DO WANT TO KILL YOU: Mayorkas personally rejected RFK Jr. Secret Service protection.

To update the Christmas song,

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why,
Santa Claus Mayorkas is coming to town
He's making a list
He's checking it twice
He's going to find out
Who's naughty and nice,
Santa Claus Mayorkas is coming to town

The progressive Left really, really, really wants anyone who opposes them out of the way....
