Here’s one that made me think for a bit:

Florida Charter Captain Busted For Allegedly Trying to Sell Cocaine He Found at Sea

What at first appeared to be a floating treasure may have turned into a career-sinking criminal case for a Florida Keys charter boat captain arrested this week for allegedly trying to sell cocaine he found at sea.

Bradford Todd Picariello, 65, of Marathon, Florida, was arrested Monday after allegedly selling a kilogram of cocaine for $10,000 to undercover detectives, according to a statement released Tuesday by the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office.

That’s not even the half of it. The captain allegedly said he had more. Lots more.

If ever I came across a “windfall” that involved questionable merchandise, I know for a fact that the very first time I tried to offload any of it, the potential buyer would turn out to be a cop, of some flavor or other.  That’s because I would be, and am, a complete naïf  in matters of criminality, and in such a situation I would be the easiest capture in law enforcement history.

But that’s not what made me think.

I used to know a guy who farmed on a tiny piece of land — something like a hundred acres, if memory serves — somewhere in northern Indiana.  I don’t recall exactly where it was, but I do know that it was only reachable by dirt roads.  Easily accessible, it wasn’t.

Anyway, he and I were chatting about the problems of farming, that almost every year brought a good chance of financial ruin, and I asked him what crop would be the most profitable, then.

“Weed.”
“What?”
“Yup, weed.”  And then came the killer:  “About three rows would do it.”

Then we got to discussing how he’d sell it and still stay under the  DEI  DEA radar*;  and without going into details, it would have been astonishingly easy.

Financial security for him and his family, for a lousy three rows of weed.

For our luckless charter captain, the money and therefore the temptation was too great.  But small-scale larceny?

I couldn’t do it.  But I’m pretty damn sure a lot of people would jump at the chance — and I don’t mean people of the career-criminal / gangster ilk.  No, I’m talking about pillars of the community, ordinarily law-abiding in all things.

And I have to tell you, I’m not at all sure how I feel about that.

*Thankee for the correction, guys.  And thankee, cold meds, for your input.   (I’m amazed I can write anything at the moment.)

Renee Good’s last moments revealed as woman suffered FOUR gunshot wounds during deadly clash with ICE

…giving rise to the old expression, “Good shooting, Tex!”  Four shots inside a couple of seconds?  Dude!

I have no sympathy, none at all, for these idiots who are prepared to turn themselves into movie props for the anti-American cinema show being produced by HateAmerica Inc. (Executive [sic] producers:  George Soros, Tim Waltz, AOC, Ilhan Omar etc. etc. etc.)

It’s one thing to get violent with the federales when they’re doing something illegal and/or un-Constitutional, e.g. engaging in mass confiscation of guns from otherwise law-abiding citizens.

But ICE is simply following the law, which states quite clearly, “If you’re here illegally, you’re gonna get deported.”  (Trump addendum: “…and even more quickly if you’ve committed other crimes.”  Which we voted for.)

At some point in the near future, some Lefty mook is going to bring a gun to the movie, and I fully expect — and hope — that when that happens, the full force of the law attacks this bunch of Commies like a rabid Rottweiler, chewing up not only said mook, but following the trail of money and chewing up the rest of this foul pestilence on our country.

Grifters & Cons

Found this jolly little missive in my Inbox last night, from simon @ domainservice.net.cn:

(Please Kindly send this message to your CEO because this is urgent. If you consider this has been delivered to you in error, please disregard it. Thanks.)

Dear CEO,
This is a official email. We are the Domain Registration Service company in Shanghai, China. I have an issue to confirm with you. An application was received by us from Baokang Ltd on January 13, 2026. They desire to register “kimdutoit” as their internet keyword and Chinese domain names (kimdutoit.cn, kimdutoit.com.cn, kimdutoit.net.cn, kimdutoit.org.cn). But after checking it, we notice this name conflicts with your business name or brand name. To deal with this issue properly, it’s necessary to send a message to you and verify if this firm is your distributor in China?

Best regards
Simon Liu

Seems all official and stuff, dunnit?  The question, though, is why any person or organization would want to use “kimdutoit.anything” in China?

And just in case you’re interested, Bloomberg says this about the company wishing to use my name:

I truly thought that scammers and phishers were more creative than this.

From here:

Many people have noticed that agitators in Minneapolis are well-organized, sporting identical whistles, vests, and signs.

Is this a grassroots organic movement? Of course not.

Let’s take a look at the organizers and sponsors.

…and then follows a listing of the Usual Suspects:  Tides Foundation, Open Society Foundation, a whole bunch of other front organizations and… U.S. taxpayers.

The real question is this:  how in the name of goodness has George Soros not had his U.S. citizenship yanked, his money confiscated and been exiled to [insert your favorite destination here] ?

Range time?  I think so.

Law and Order, Riotous Assemblies

Here’s one that perked me up and made my morning brighter:

An Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent shot and killed a woman on Wednesday who allegedly attempted to run over law enforcement with her vehicle amid immigration enforcement conducting a crackdown in Minneapolis.

Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said that the woman was shot in her vehicle in a residential neighborhood in Minneapolis.

The woman in a Honda Pilot SUV appeared to be blocking the road in front of an ICE squad. As agents approached the woman, she backed up and pulled forward. While pulling forward, an ICE agent in front of the vehicle pulled his service weapon. The agent fired at least one shot into the vehicle as he sidestepped the moving SUV. The vehicle then crashed into a parked car.

Good.  I’m sick of these assholes screwing around with ICE, and this was made all the sweeter by the fact that it took place in the People’s Soviet of Minnesoduh, which explains the reaction from local politicians:

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said regarding DHS’s explanation of the shooting, “So they are already trying to spin this as an action of self-defense. Having seen the video … myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bullshit.”

He added that he feels “this was an agent recklessly using power that resulted in somebody dying.”

“We have been in contact with law enforcement leaders, the Attorney General, and the Governor’s Office throughout the morning and are pushing hard for a local investigation which is the only way to ensure full transparency and review by our office. We will use every available lever to ensure a local, transparent investigation takes place,” Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said in a statement, FOX 9 reported.

Frey posted on X, “I am aware of a shooting involving an ICE agent at 34th Street & Portland. The presence of federal immigration enforcement agents is causing chaos in our city. We’re demanding ICE to leave the city immediately. We stand rock solid with our immigrant and refugee communities.”

…against the cops, yeah, we get the picture, you Commie bitch.

Of course, if our hero ICE agent were to be treated in the same way that career criminals are ordinarily treated by Moriarty, he’d be released within minutes.  As it is…

I want ICE to go into this festering cesspit of a city harder and yet harder, in greater numbers and with even greater resolve.  And if the “residents” get out of control such as happened in this instance, I want to see more gunfire.  Let’s see if these criminal supporters [sic]  feel that strongly about their case then.
