THE FEDERAL JUDICIARY NEEDS MORE DISCIPLINE: After More Than Three Years, Judge Newman’s Case Is Transferred To The Eleventh Circuit: The case was only transferred after Chief Judge Moore extended Newman’s suspension for another year. “Indeed, there is a parallel between Chief Judge Moore and Judge Southwick. Both judges care very much about who sits on their court and they seek to use their own judicial power to control who sits on the court. The judicial ethics mavens apparently see nothing wrong with either of their conduct, but I do. And for what it’s worth, Judge Newman could have hand-picked her successor a long time ago, but has made the moral choice to serve until she can serve no longer.”
Full disclosure: Judge Newman is represented by the NCLA, on whose board I serve.
WHAT A BACKDROP FOR THIS SPEECH:

HE WILL NOT BE MISSED: James Talarico’s Campaign Goes Dark With Just 28 Days Until Election Day. “Talarico has not been seen publicly in Texas in over a week, with his last appearance occurring on Saturday, September 26, before he took a fundraising trip to New York City. There, he was treated to a VIP fundraising dinner where attendees, like a filmmaker who labeled America a ‘shithole’ and a group that advocates for child sex change surgeries, were charged $27,000 a plate.”
THE ENEMY WITHIN:

JOHN RINGO: “As the guy who writes plague books… Relax. Don’t let the MSM stampede you again.”
Before everyone starts panicking about the 'Russian Plague.'
Everything we've got is it's Bubonic Plague, pneumonic variant. Possibly partially weaponized maybe.
THE BLACK DEATH!
Uh… There has been a safe and effective vaccine for this since the 1930s. I had it multiple…

BASICALLY, IT BOILS DOWN TO TREASON: Why does an American state have Somali gangs?
DEMOCRATS SHOULD DO OPPO RESEARCH IN PRIMARIES:
I feel sorry for Haley Stevens. Abdul beat her in the Michigan D primary by attacking her supporter, AIPAC, as representative of a foreign government.
Now it turns out that Abdul is a walking, talking dual citizen of a foreign government, Egypt.
The guy is a con man.

I HOPE HE’S RIGHT: Alex Berenson: Don’t worry about the Plague.
KIND OF LIKE WHAT THEIR PRODUCTS DO TO USERS: ‘Your brain literally atrophies’: Tech payouts are leaving people suddenly rich — but also depressed. I dunno, when Uncle Jed came into a lot of money, his kinfolk told him to move to Beverly — Hills, that is — but he seemed cheerful enough and didn’t have any visible self-image problems.
