Undeserving

Yeah, this is the right thing to do:

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has denied a request to allow the late civil rights activist Rev. Jesse Jackson to lie in honor in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda.

At first glance, this would appear to be a spiteful act.  When you look at the criteria for said honor, however, the truth emerges:

The Speaker considered past precedent of mostly reserving the practice for former presidents and select former government officials and military honorees.

And Jackson wouldn’t qualify under a single one of those categories, would he?  Because he never did a single damn thing except ride the Racism Grifter Express (which, to be fair, I think he did actually create).

And while we’re there, an honest IRS investigation and audit into his “Rainbow Coalition”‘s finances might in all likelihood have ended with him in jail for financial fraud or at best mismanagement.  But that was never going to happen, of course.

Had Jackson ever been elected to office on the Token Negro ticket, he would have been proven to be as inept and venal as the asshole (another “community activist”) who was eventually elected to the Presidency, on the same ticket.

R.I.P.

…or not.  I see that both Jesse Jackson and Robert Duvall have recently died.

I deeply mourn the passing of one, and am dancing a jig of joy for the death of the other.  Feel free to guess which is which.

Transplant

I see that billionaire asshole Mark Zuckerberg is looking at property in Florida:

Mark Zuckerberg may soon be adding Miami to his ever-growing list of luxury addresses. According to people familiar with his plans, the Meta founder and his wife, Priscilla Chan, are exploring a home on Indian Creek Island—an ultra-exclusive, heavily guarded neighborhood often called “Billionaire Bunker”.

On the bright side, he’s not looking at Texas;  he might have fit in quite well in Austin, although he might not be liberal enough for those assholes.

Chalk up one more score to the other liberal assholes in California, who are looking to tax billionaires into the poorhouse or something #WhoCares.  According to the above article:

Chamath Palihapitiya [who he?] wrote on X: “With Zuck’s move to Florida, California’s total taxable wealth from billionaires has plummeted to well under $1T from over $2T just a few weeks ago.”

Yeah, it’s all fun and games to spout Commie propaganda and fund Commie organizations who in turn fund Commie activists in Minneapolis — until they turn on you… right, Zuck?

A pox on all their houses, including the ones in Florida.

Incitement

Well now, isn’t that special?

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday, Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) went on a tirade, during which he appeared to say that citizens would be justified in shooting ICE agents.

“But what is really the major problem in this country today is the fascism in our streets, the attacks on American citizens by masked hoodlums,” Nadler began. “If you were attacked by a masked person, you might think you were being kidnapped. You’d be justified in shooting the person to protect yourself.”

It has long been established that ICE agents wear masks because they are under threat of the radical left identifying and doxxing them. On top of that, even masked ICE agents are clearly identifiable as federal agents every single time. There is no need to suggest that it would be justified to shoot ICE agents.

“But we see people being shot, for what? For driving a car?” Nadler added.

Here we go.  Throw in a few blatant untruths or careful elisions — that would be “attacked by a masked person [wearing a clearly-identifiable law enforcement uniform]” and “being shot for driving a car [at people wearing clearly-identifiable law enforcement uniforms]” — and guess what?  According to this Nadler asshole, “You’d be justified at shooting the person to protect yourself.”

Yes.  Let’s see how that plays out in a courtroom, shall we?

But what the hell, if that fat fuck Nadler can say what he said, then I’ll say this:

I hope that in these specious cases of self-defense, the perpetrators never make it as far as the courtroom, but end up lying in a pool of their own blood right there in the streets, shot dead by law enforcement.

Enough, as they say, is enough.  The Left seems eager for a crowd of martyrs to further their little anti-ICE / anti-Trump PR campaign;  maybe it’s time we gave them what they want, in spades.
