THEY WILL CHEAT EVERY TIME: Lawsuit claims Virginia county is violating election law amid governor race.

Finally the Republicans are learning how to do offensive lawfare....

IT'S BEDTIME FOR BONZO -- and America. Sleep well.

KURT SCHLICHTER: Defund the Feds.

All the Feds, but I'll settle for one agency at a time....

FOLLOW THE SCIENCE! Hospitals accept natural immunity as reason for staff to defer mandated vaccine.

Is science -- real science, that is -- making a comeback? That (I hope) and the power of "No."

I PREFER 'AND': Is the First Family corrupt, or merely crazy?

BIDEN EXPOSED? Cabinet secretary tests positive for COVID days after meeting with president who was spotted maskless.

But, but ... he's been vaccinated -- three times! He doesn't need a mask....

RESIGNATIONS AREN'T ENOUGH; THERE MUST BE INDICTMENTS: The Loudoun bathroom teen rape situation just keeps getting worse.

More here, with a word to the wise: "Parents should remove their children from any schools that maintain these misguided policies. In the meantime, trust no one in any school administration to tell the truth — or to protect your kids."

MICHAEL RAMIREZ on the Biden spending train.

From the comments (which I usually don't bother reading), the ignorance idiocy of the Left is stunning.

SO HAND THEM THEIR FINAL PAYCHECKS AS THEY WALK OUT THE DOOR: Netflix transgender employees walking out to protest Dave Chappelle special.

WITH PROGRESSIVES, EVERYTHING'S A CRISIS: New York City declares racism public health crisis. For you, not the progressive leadership....

BETTER? OR SOFTBALL? Virginia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe abruptly ends interview, tells local Virginia reporter 'You should've asked better questions'.

Like "What's your preferred ice cream flavor?"

COLIN POWELL and the crisis of the boomer elite.

SO WHAT'S NEW? Secretary [of Transportation] Mayor Pete is a disaster.

Fully two of the nine months he’s been “on the job” were spent with him not on the job and no one noticed. The President and Democrats in Congress are fighting to push through a couple of “infrastructure” bills, and infrastructure is his responsibility, and he hasn’t been around for 60 days…and it wasn’t noticed until last week? There is no better argument for eliminating the whole damned department.

You better be stocked up on whatever you need/want for Christmas. And a reminder -- coal is in short supply too.

LECTURES FROM LIMOUSINE LIBERALS: The same people who sat at home praising essential workers as heroes now repay them with exclusion and sneering condescension.

They've always been about 'exclusion and sneering condescension'; COVID-19 just made it visible to the unwashed masses.

RANDOM THOUGHT: Calling CNN's Brian Stelter 'Mr. Potato Head' is an insult to the toy.

And potatos....

THAT'S HOW WE KNOW THEY'RE LOSING: Left-wing pundits cheer on columnist calling for end of fairness in journalism.

MAYOR, ER, TRANSPORTATION SECRETARY PETE insults our intelligence with new gaslighting effort about the supply chain crisis.

They lie because they truly believe Americans are dumb enough to believe them.

And most progressives are....

RANDOM THOUGHT: The primary problem with our election process is that in general Republicans are not interested in controlling others. Democrats are.

So they cheat to maintain control.

SANDEL'S JUST DESSERTS: The primary problem with meritocracy in America is that those in the leadership are without it.

[M]any Americans are more likely to disdain Harvard for its haughtiness and for the pretensions of its faculty and graduates to impose their progressive views and preferences on the entire nation than to aspire to send their children there. He [Sandel] fails to consider that substantial numbers of Americans are proud of their local way of life, have no yearning to live in Manhattan or Silicon Valley, and mostly want progressive elites to mind their own business.

The PowerLine post is longish but eminently readable; the Washington Free Beacon book review is as well. Read both.

WE CAN'T LET A REAL CRISIS distract us from a politically correct -- but unreal -- crisis.
