GET OVER YOURSELVES: Punk Fail? Rockers Cancel Festival Over Trump.

Now, a gaggle of punk bands planning to tour the country is calling it quits. The reason why is so very, very 2026.

It’s all about Trump Derangement Syndrome.

No, we can’t all get along, apparently, and the Punk in the Park tour’s demise has little to do with the bands in question.

Denver’s far-Left Westword shared the ugly reason for the cancellation – “continued fallout over the organizer’s recently exposed political leanings, particularly financially supporting Trump’s second presidential campaign…”

Cameron Collins is the owner of the tour’s parent company, the Dallas-based Brew Ha Ha Productions. Collins contributed to President Trump’s most recent presidential campaign.

That was enough to stop the tour cold.

And Jello Biafra? Really?

I CAN’T WAIT TO GET OUT OF THIS STATE: Alcohol ‘fees’ another end-run around Colorado voter consent.

Volumes could be written on the misguided language and intent of the bill, which incorrectly assumes that it is someone else’s fault for individuals choosing to partake in alcohol consumption, and that they must therefore be punished.

However, for our purposes, let’s focus on the bill’s insidious attempt to bypass voter consent.

Despite the constant catastrophizing about not having enough revenue, Colorado lawmakers deliberately continue to ignore the fact that state government has grown far beyond what was ever intended by TABOR.

While tax revenue subject to voter consent has grown by only 44% since TABOR passed, voter-consent-exempt cash funds, such as those generated by HB-1271, have grown by 588%.

But it gets worse. Because of the meteoric increase in enterprise revenues, voters passed Proposition 117 in 2020 to require ballot-box approval of new enterprises whose expected revenues would exceed $100 million in the first five years.

With utter disregard for Colorado voters, legislators now use the scheme of creating several enterprises in place of a single enterprise to keep revenue below the threshold set by Prop 117, thus avoiding voter approval.

Not only that, but it’s guaranteed that the bill’s “three new enterprises in the Behavioral Health Administration” will prove nothing more than a taxpayer-funded money stream to lefty groups.

DITTO:

Originally I supported Trump's war with Iran, but then I saw all the worst people in America came out against it, and now I support it even more.

LAUGHING WOLF: Winter 26 Bleg.

I hate to do this, as your kind gifts over the last 4.5 years have kept me going. Right after I was hit by lightning that June, and things started going South rather rapidly, quite a few of you stood up and helped me out as I dealt with health issues, health bureaucracy, and general bureaucracy. At that time, I wanted nothing more than to get better and move to the desert SW. As I look out at the roughly inch of snow that fell here this morning, there is a part of me that still very much wants to move there.

That said, about 3.5 years ago, I found a new Church home and my desire for a new life took on a new meaning. It was something long building, as I had for years thought there was something I was supposed to be doing, though I wasn’t sure what it was that I was to do. It literally took getting hit by lightning to have a moment of clarity, and to slowly (I am a bit thick and slow) realize that the end doesn’t matter, only the path. Bit more on this later in the post.

It took more than three years to get a small monthly stipend going, and during that time your gifts literally allowed me to live as I had no real income during that time. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate those gifts, and all the prayers that came with them. Both mean more than I can ever truly express. Which is why I hate to ask for more, but my stipend is not huge and while things are improving, there is more to do than I can cover.

So, I’m going to do a formal Bleg. Haven’t done this in a while, but here’s what I’m looking at over the next year or so.

He’s a good guy and a sharp blogger. I chipped in.

CBS NEWS GOTTA CBS NEWS: CBS boss ‘OUTRAGED’ by clip showing Texas TV reporter being told not to cover jubilant Iranian protests after Trump had Ayatollah killed.

CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss is ‘fuming’ over a viral video that appears to show a CBS Austin reporter being instructed to downplay coverage of a pro-Israel-US protest then occurring behind him, it is claimed.

Weiss, 41, saw the footage and wants a network-wide crackdown as a result, a well-placed source told the Daily Mail.

CBS affiliates will not be exempt from the effort, the insider said Monday, speaking on condition of anonymity.

The clip in question shows CBS Austin’s Vinny Martorano covering the procession outside the Texas Capitol building, and comes from a Facebook livestream posted by the station on Saturday.

Martorano was set to speak on a procession gathered to celebrate the US and Israeli strikes on Iran when a crew member passed him a phone.

‘What does that mean?’ Martorano says after several seconds of scrutinizing a message on the device’s screen.

‘It means they don’t want us to focus on this,’ one his crew mates explains – a command Martorano does not heed.

The moment was quickly clipped and reshared, earning Weiss’s attention in the process, our source said.

Let’s see if she takes any real action.

As Glenn noted yesterday, “We do seem to be drifting closer to Kurt Schlichter’s The Attack. And — no surprise here — Democrats think they’ll find electoral advantage in ignoring it. While also pushing for more gun control, of course.
