IS KELLOGGS NEXT? Dylan Mulvaney goes blonde and poses with Tony the Tiger at the Tony Awards.

Kellogg’s mascot “Tony the Tiger” appeared on the red carpet with trans-identifying male activist Dylan Mulvaney at the 76th Tony Awards and social media blew up, with many suggesting the cereal company was the next one to go woke, go broke.

The famed icon of the Frosted Flakes cereal ditched his red bandana for a bow tie on Sunday as he posed for pictures at the New York event with Mulvaney on his arm. Numerous images later surfaced on Twitter with a mix of comments about the cereal brand being the next one to possibly face a boycott. It comes after Mulvaney’s partnership with Bud Light led to the company’s loss in market value of some $27 billion by the end of May.

NEWS YOU CAN USE: Understanding Point Shooting. “Years ago, Col. Jeff Cooper, Thell Reed, and a bunch of really good pistol shots used to hold regular matches and exhibitions. They were point shooters and were pretty good at it. Then along came Jack Weaver, a California deputy sheriff, who took the time to use both hands and look at his sights. He cleaned their clocks on a regular basis.”

WATCH: Kevin McCarthy Absolutely Decimates a CNN Reporter Over the Network’s Hypocrisy. “McCarthy’s point on the matter is simple. If it’s okay for CNN to hire and retain people like [Andrew] McCabe, who provable broke the law and leaked classified information, then why is it out of bounds for him to defend Trump from what is obviously further weaponization of the legal system? This is how you handle the media. You don’t accept their premise, and you don’t allow them to narrow the debate. If CNN wants to talk about this subject, let’s talk about it. As McCarthy showed, it won’t go well for them.”

ROBERT HEINLEIN, CALL YOUR OFFICE! US military offers immigrants fast track to citizenship in effort to boost recruiting.

The United States military recently launched a new program to boost recruiting by offering a fast track to citizenship for legal immigrants who enlist.

The Army, Air Force, and Navy reported that they would likely be unable to meet their yearly recruiting goals. Last year, the Army missed its recruiting goal by 25%.

Additionally, only 20% of U.S. individuals meet the physical, mental, and character requirements to join the military.

Officials report that low unemployment, fewer qualified people, and declining public confidence in the military are to blame for the recent recruiting shortfalls.

In an effort to enlist more service members, the Air Force started a new program this year that offers an accelerated path to citizenship for legal immigrants who join.

The Army relaunched a similar program in October, offering legal immigrants a fast track to naturalization for enlisting.

HMM: 2023 Honda Accord Hybrid vs. Toyota Camry Hybrid: Is One of These an SUV Killer? “It might be weird to consider for anyone who grew up after the 2008 financial crisis, but there was a time when midsize sedans were numbingly boring and known as ‘family cars.’ Yes, low-slung, four-door sedans whose butts terminate with trunklids, not tailgates, were hugely popular. Sales figures resembled those of modern pickups, and every manufacturer had skin in the game, from Ford to Mitsubishi. And within the segment, the Toyota Camry and its rival, the Honda Accord, dominated the space. The Accord’s sales topped 400,000 units in the early 2000s; the Camry nearly kissed the half-million mark in 2007.”

HMM: Oil Prices Will Not Rally Despite Saudi Output Cut. “Despite the Saudi cut and the extension of the current OPEC+ cuts through 2024, the EIA expects non-OPEC producers to drive global liquids production to growth of 1.5 million barrels per day (bpd) in 2023 and 1.3 million bpd in 2024, limiting the upside for oil prices. Production growth in the United States, Norway, Canada, Brazil, and Guyana will be the primary drivers of the increase in global liquids output.”

STILL INFERIOR TO DIESEL, THOUGH: Ammonia Used to Power a Semi Truck. “The system has 5x higher system-level energy densities compared to lithium batteries. The volumetric energy density of liquid ammonia is almost 3x greater than that of compressed hydrogen. Over an equivalent distance, fueling a vehicle solely using ammonia would require approximately three times the internal tank volume needed for conventional diesel fuel but three times less than the volume required for compressed hydrogen.”

After seeing this video on an anhydrous ammonia incident a few years ago, I’m not super impressed with this as a fuel. I mean, yeah, gasoline and diesel can burn, but . . .

THE SCOTT GERBER CASE, REVISITED. NAS’ Peter Wood: “This matter involves an effort by the dean of ONU’s law school, Charles H. Rose III, to coerce Professor Gerber to resign… Perhaps most troubling of all to some of his colleagues, he is a leading authority on the jurisprudence of Justice Clarence Thomas.” Thrown out of class in April, he still has not been told what he did. If they can do this to a tenured professor, nobody is safe. (Disclosure: my firm represents Prof. Gerber.)

HMM: Is this why Tara Reade fled to Russia?

We received a response from Reade’s attorney, Dr. Levy. He provided us with a copy of a subpoena that Twitter’s Trust and Safety office received from a U.S. District Court in California in June of 2020. (The pdf file is attached.) The Justice Department was seeking all of Tara Reade’s personal information associated with her Twitter account. They believe this move by Twitter (pre-Musk) was meant to intimidate her.

Further, the attorney revealed to us that Reade had been in talks with Matt Gaetz of the House Weaponization of the Government Subcommittee as recently as May of this year. She was informed that her arrest could be “imminent.” A search is currently ongoing to see if INTERPOL has issued a Red Notice, allowing any nation to arrest her and extradite her. Reade has applied for asylum via the United Nations and awaits a response.

Real banana-republic stuff, if true.

Again, we “might lose” because our priorities have lain elsewhere than in ensuring that we have a war-winning military. There has been a major dereliction of duty over the past few years — maybe longer — and there should be accountability and purges. We’ll get those anyway once the war starts, but it’s better to get rid of the deadwood sooner. Some people in the military know this, but they’re not the ones in charge.

STACEY LENNOX: Why Is Fox News so Desperate to Silence Tucker Carlson? “So far, Carlson has put two videos on Twitter that have garnered well over 150 million views. By way of comparison, his cable news show drew an average of 3.3 million viewers for the first several months of 2023. Between Carlson’s reach on the platform and the recent experience of the Daily Wire’s documentary, What Is A Woman, Twitter has the potential to expand audiences for content creators. Musk demonstrated during the launch of Daily Wire’s film that counter-narrative views on important topics will not be censored.”

Those numbers have to be worrisome for Fox — and even more so for networks with even fewer viewers like MSNBC and CNN.

HMMMM:  On Sunday, the New York Times carried an op-ed by Judge Shira Scheindlin entitled “If the Supreme Court Abolishes Affirmative Action, Here’s What Women Need to Do.”  In it, she called women “among affirmative action’s greatest beneficiaries.”  At least when it comes to college admissions at non-STEM specialty schools, the truth may be a little closer to the opposite.  It is common for liberal arts schools discriminate against women in admissions.

In other news, Judge Scheindlin also appears to be unaware of the research showing that racial preferences leave under-represented minority students worse off in their pursuit of high-prestige careers.  But if she has a Google Search on her name, she’ll be able to read about it now.  You can too if you’re so inclined.

EXERCISE YOUR CIVIL RIGHTS: More Coloradans carrying as concealed handgun permits climb above pre-pandemic levels.

Despite the practice being targeted for restrictions by some municipalities, the number of Coloradans obtaining concealed handgun permits (CHPs) in 2022 still climbed above pre-pandemic levels.

Such local gun rights restrictions are possible after Gov. Jared Polis signed Senate Bill 256 in 2021. The new law unwound decades of state preemption and allows local governments to manage their own gun laws, but only so long as they are more restrictive than those at the state level, meaning the law only allows for a one-way ratcheting up rather than true local control.

To date several communities have been successful in passing laws prohibiting concealed carry in public-owned buildings or parks, including Denver, Boulder and Broomfield. The City of Edgewater originally included such a ban in a broader package of potential ordinances but backed off after a large public outcry.

Such a patchwork of laws make it tough on gun owners to know where they can and can’t carry as they travel the state, and is one of the reasons the legislature originally passed preemption around gun laws.

If Democrats’ goal was to frighten people into not carrying — a safe assumption — it isn’t working.
