LOWER COURT JUDGES NEED SOME SERIOUS SMACKING: SCOTUS Smacks Obama/Biden Appointees With A Newspaper Across The Nose For Wrongfully Acting Like A “Roving Commission Looking For Wrongs To Right.” A very pointed Per Curiam Opinion issued this morning identifies the Fourth Circuit as a repeat offender in deciding cases on issues never raised by the parties — THAT is judicial activism.

NEWS YOU CAN USE: Everyone Needs a Boot Knife: SOG and Cold Steel.

UPDATE: Reader John Steakley writes:

Everyone needs a knife, boot or otherwise.

Three years ago I was with my wife in St. Augustine for a wedding. She and her sister went shopping in a store that didn’t interest me so I went next door. That store had a selection of knives, one of which looked like a good-quality folding knife with a tanto blade, a serrated section, and a glass breaker butt point for under $30. So I bought it.

I’ve carried it since. I’ve been surprised at how handy it is to just have a knife in your pocket. I use it for something almost daily.

Every man should carry a pocketknife.

ASKING THE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS: Kurt Schlichter: Why Are Male-Identifying Democrat Candidates All Creepy Weirdos? If you ever wanted irrefutable evidence of Democrats’ hate for white men, all you’d have to do is point to the rogues’ gallery of weirdos, losers, and mutations they’ve nominated over the last few election cycles. It’s like they don’t actually know any normal white dudes, because the people they pick in a baffling attempt to recapture this large and crucial group of voters—who have almost completely rejected the Democrats—are simply bizarre. How did they ever get the impression that these freakish nominees would somehow make normal white guys go, ‘Yeah, I identify with him. I’ll vote for him. Now, it’s off to the Porta-Potty with some champagne and a dozen roses.’”

THE LEFT DOESN’T REALLY “GO” NUTS. THE LEFT IS NUTS.

French decide to have banquets celebrating local culture, food, and Frenchness and Left goes nuts.

They don't want the French to be French, Romanians to be Romanians, or Austrians to be Austrians.

DON SURBER: Trump ignores RNC, gets half the Hispanic vote: Democrats are peeing their pants over losing 40-point majorities among Hispanics.

“The latest Economist/YouGov survey from May 22-26 shows just 39% of Hispanics plan to support a Democrat for Congress. That is over a twenty-point decline for Democrats in four short years and a thirty-point decline in eight years.”
