TRUE:

When a lifelong Democrat, from an iconic Democrat family, who tried to run as a Democrat, and who’s running mate was a Democrat, warns you about the dangers of voting for the Democrat in this election, you should probably listen.

Quoth RFK, Jr.: “How did the Democratic party choose a candidate that has never done an interview or debate during the entire election cycle? We know the answer. They did it by weaponizing the government agencies. They did it by abandoning democracy. They did it by suing the opposition and by disenfranchising American voters.”

Heh. But worse, it was Kamala.

UPDATE: Kira Davis: The Beyonce Campaign. “As we all know by now, it turns out the big ‘surprise’ was Kamala Harris. . . . Cue one million sad trombones. Not only was it a hilarious let-down, it was yet another indictment of a legacy media that no longer performs journalism but rather is a lazy stenographer pool that can’t be bothered to any real work beyond reporting on social media posts.”

WE ARE GOVERNED BY CORRUPT MORONS:

This is far more damning that people understand.

It means that the Commerce Secretary was unaware of an enormously important piece of economic data that everyone in financial markets was anticipating.

But she is aware of Trump’s Truth Social posts.

That’s very bad. https://t.co/eoCa1sqTI4

Well, she knows what Trump said because they have him under surveillance.

TRUE: Sullum: Democrats Aren’t Even Paying Lip Service to the Second Amendment Anymore.

RFK JR. SPEAKS: “Fun fact: almost all of the US media outlets cut their live coverage after he accused them of participating in government censorship.”

I MEAN, WE KNEW, BUT STILL:

WOW. Watch Gavin Newsom basically admit that there was a coup to replace Joe Biden with Kamala.

THE INSTITUTE FOR JUSTICE IS ON THE CASE: South Fulton’s Protectionist Zoning:

Between rent, the security deposit, and building out her shop, Awa spent nearly $20,000. But then came time for the City Council to vote for her license. To her shock, when the City Council met it was not concerned with how to welcome a new business, but instead focused on protecting other businesses from competition.

Their language was anything but subtle.

One member said that it was “not fair” that an existing salon would “have to compete” with Awa. The Council even said that Awa should forget the thousands of dollars she invested, start over, and find a new location where she wouldn’t be “competing with anyone.” The Council rejected her permit—not because her shop was unsafe or failed to meet any regulations, but rather to stifle competition from other politically favored businesses.

This blanket economic protectionism is unconstitutional. The South Fulton City Council cannot shut out new businesses just to protect existing ones from competition. The Georgia Supreme Court said so just last year in another IJ case involving lactation consultants.

Every American has the right to use their property to earn a living without arbitrary government interference. The government cannot pick and choose who gets to pursue the American Dream.

The remedy should include not only her license and damages, but mandatory training in civics and economics for the South Fulton City Council.

SABO STRIKES AGAIN:

MARK JUDGE: David French Isn’t a Conservative.

TAR AND FEATHERS: Most ‘swamp’ managers say voters don’t matter. “Washington’s bureaucracy, expanded and emboldened by the Biden-Harris administration, feels so secure that most managers would impose new regulations even if voters ‘overwhelmingly’ rejected their plans. In the latest sign of the disconnect between Washington’s ‘swamp’ and the rest of the country, 54% of federal government managers would defy voters to do what they want, according to a new Napolitan Institute survey conducted by Scott Rasmussen and shared with Secrets.”

EITHER THAT OR ITS A MONEY LAUNDRY: Are ActBlue’s Donors Even Real? “There’s definitely something fishy going on. And there is definitely no chance at all that the Department of Justice or the FEC will investigate it in this administration.”

OH, I HOPE HE MEANS IT:

I mentioned this a month or so ago, now it has cropped up again. Pres. Trump has repeatedly indicated a preference for a massive senior leadership turnover at the Pentagon, should he win in November.

I think there’s a good chance he means it.

Kamala got zero votes, has given zero press conferences, has given zero interviews, and had to stage buying a bag of Doritos.

This is the most ridiculous, anti-democratic, laughable joke I’ve ever seen in politics.
