THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES: Bud Light now hated by both sides.

Always unintended, and usually bad....
THE NARRATIVE DOESN'T ADVANCE ITSELF: Useful idiots -- we call them progressives -- are needed.
WHITE SUPREMACY: Its not just for whites any more.
Reality strikes: 'white' is the sum of all colors.

Apparently the Left is just now discovering prisms....
SORRY BUT WE DIDN'T VOLUNTEER TO BE SANCTUARY CITIES: NYC Mayor Adams thinks migrants should be sent to every city 'throughout the entire country'.

New York City did. Don't ask us to pay for your virtue signaling.
SPRING 2023, WEEK 12, AND THE END UNTIL FALL: We'll begin with our usual view from the top.
The trees have finally filled in, everything is green, and the ground cover (brush) is finally growing gangbusters -- the stairway and walking path to the pond will be hidden if I don't get to clearing them soon.
Here's the fire pit and a bit of the yard. The tomato plants and cucumbers (in the steel pots) were seeds and seedlings just last when they were planted. All the trees have fully leafed out, and the grass now has to be mowed weekly.
Here's today's pond, fully green. Last week I lamented that the flowers on the back side of the pond hadn't arrived; this week they did, but in white. They're fewer and not really visible in this long distance photo. The grass on the dam (not pictured here) is still thin, but now over a foot high. A few more weeks and I'll need a brush mower to clear it.
The house, taken from just beyond the fire pit. That's Wonda, our most recent full-time acquisition. Wonda is a Manx (tailless) cat; her previous owner gave her her name: "I wonda where she came from."
Finally, two street views. The first is of the carport side, with the roses and day lilies coming to bloom. The nandina and azaleas behind the fence are just now starting to grow.

That's it until the Fall series begins.
LAW SCHOOLS face an inflection point with diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Not just law schools, all schools -- kindergarten through university.
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: The Biden Administration's new diplomatic cultural imperialism is proving to be a disastrous foreign policy.
UNRIGGING OUR ELECTIONS: Republicans need a serious counter-offensive if they want to stand a chance.

If we want to keep our Republic, we have to go back to election day, not election month, in-person voting, and voter ID.

Otherwise we will have to learn to live with a totalitarian government demanding to control every aspect of our lives for their benefit.
CHEVRON DEFERENCE, PRESIDENT TRUMP, AND THE 2024 ELECTION: What I fear lies ahead.

I'm inclined to agree.

OOPS! Liberal Supreme Court justice caught in scandal.

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito told the Wall Street Journal in an interview recently that he has a "pretty good idea" who was responsible for the stunning leak last year of a draft opinion in the high court's Dobbs abortion case, but refused to identify the leaker: "I personally have a pretty good idea who is responsible, but that’s different from the level of proof that is needed to name somebody."

I wonder who....
IT TOOK ONLY 323 YEARS: China successsfully restored it's GDP per capita to where it had been in -- checks notes -- the year 1700.
WELL, BRANDON [JOHNSON] has taken control of Chicago.

I'm thankful my daughter left years ago.

IS THIS WHY transgenderism is exploding in American public schools?

I would consider gender 'transition' drug treatments as a possible culprit in the increase in trans violence as seen in the Hale case, but I blame public schools and the increasingly strident government teachers unions for the startling increase in gender dysphoria in the schools. I saw the beginning of that 'your child is now my child' attitude way back in the 1980's when my children were in school.

I didn't like it then, and fear it today Thank God parents (and some states) are fighting back. The only solution to my mind is to take away funding from public schools and return it to the students/parents to spend as they choose on education.
MSNBC: You don't have to be white to be a White Supremacist. You don't even have to identify as white.
BIDEN IS AN IDIOT (AT BEST): White supremacy is the most dangerous threat facing America.
