Another RINO Gone
U.S. Senator John Cornyn (TX) was always an Establishment RINO — hell, he only ever got into the Senate because his opponent was some nutcase, and then he’s had the incumbent’s advantage ever since. And he’s been a royal pain in the ass, too.
Cornyn promised to support Trump’s recess appointments and then blocked the nominees the very next day. He also announced that Trump could face indictment for insurrection after the events of Jan. 6, 2021, while promoting the fake news that protestors had killed a Capitol police officer. The incumbent senator even endorsed amnesty for illegal aliens. Oh, and he supported “red flag” gun laws after the Uvalde school shooting, thus pissing off people like Yer Humble Narrator and a few million other gun owners.
Not anymore. Yesterday, I and (it appears) a whole bunch of other pissed-off conservative Texans got together and kicked his RINO ass out:
He got Dallas because that’s more or less his home turf, and Austin because a) Austin is asshoe, and b) they voted for him because they must have thought Cornyn would be easier to beat in the Generals later this year, which again shows how delusional the Left can be*. (And nobody cares what Corpus Christi thinks.)
So long, RINO.
And well done, Pax. Get up there and start representing Texas. Just remember who brung you to the dance, and all will be well in the future.
*The Evil Party’s nominee for the U.S. Senate race in November will be one James Talarico, who thinks God is non-binary, abortion is Christian, and Jesus was a pro-transgenderism feminist. (I am not making this up.)
Oh, and one last thought about elections:
Those Brits…
Prancing Horseshit
Yeah, so Ferrari’s not-so-little Duracell car has been widely panned, e.g.:
..which is kinda what they did, I think. (No pics because I refuse to be party to mass vomiting, y’all.)
Best comment is from a former Ferrari honcho:
“At least the Chinese won’t copy this car.”
As someone commented underneath: “Somebody call the burn ward.”
For those looking for relative values:
And yes, I know they probably did it to bypass the EU’s version of our awful CAFE nonsense. Don’t care. The Loo-chay looks like shit — about the same as the new Jaguar Faerie model — and who the hell wants an overpriced kitchen appliance anyway?
I bet they sell a jillion because it’s Ferrari, and the tifosi arrivisti have never been renowned for their brains. They’re welcome to it.
Here’s the thing. If someone pointed a gun at my head and said “Here’s half a million-odd euros, but you have to spend it on a Ferrari or we’ll kill you”, I’d spend it gladly.
But it would have to be a creditable threat.
In Comments: which Ferrari would you buy under those circumstances? (And for the last time: I don’t care about your fucking ’64 F-100 or 2003 Adam Toyota Corolla. Play the game.)
Quote Of The Day
“In what has got to be the coolest job in the history of jobs, American firearms engineers took the belt-fed mechanism from a captured German MG42 and grafted it onto the action of an FG42 paratroop rifle.”
If that sentence did not give you just the slightest hint of a woody, we are not the same kind of people.

Looks like you pervs men of discriminating taste like that MILFy stuff, so once more unto the breach, so to speak:
Dropping Like Flies
Wow, the Trump Chicks are dropping like flies:
- DHS chief Kristi Noem: fired
- Attorney General Pam Biondi: fired; and now
- DNI head Tulsi Gabbard (resigned, albeit for a very good reason — her husband has cancer and she needs to be with him).
What will be really interesting is to see who replaces Gabbard: will DJT go with one of the establishment security people, or bring in an outsider like Tulsi was? (I know: her appointment was really a slap in the face of the agency which targeted her during the Obama III Biden years, and there’s nothing wrong with that.)
