15 Million Votes in 2020 Election Not Accounted for, Report Finds

19th August 2021

Read it.

Almost 15 million mail-in ballots were unaccounted for in the 2020 presidential election, and more than a million more ballots were undeliverable, according to a new study.

The Public Interest Legal Foundation, a conservative watchdog group on election integrity, released a research brief Wednesday assessing the effect of mass mail-in balloting in an election with a close presidential race in key battleground states such as Arizona, Georgia, and Wisconsin.

“These figures detail how the 2020 push to mail voting needs to be a one-year experiment,” J. Christian Adams, president of the Public Interest Legal Foundation, said in a public statement.

The report found that 1.1 million mail-in ballots were undeliverable for various reasons. Election officials rejected another 560,814 mail-in ballots.

Another 14.7 million mailed ballots met an “unknown” fate, the report says.

Despite an overrun southern border, President Joe Biden is requesting U.S. Border Patrol agents to volunteer to go overseas to handle the processing of thousands of refugees from the Afghanistan withdrawal, the Washington Examiner reported.

Three Border Patrol agents acknowledged to the Examiner their supervisors’ request for volunteers to go to Afghanistan or nearby countries for 30 to 90 days to help process immigrants.

6 Reasons China, Not Just Taliban, Benefits from US Exit From Afghanistan

19th August 2021

Read it.

Beyond Afghanistan, a major Chinese propaganda organ already has used the U.S. defeat there to warn Taiwan (which the communist regime claims as part of China) and potentially other countries.

China’s diplomats met late last month with Taliban leaders before the U.S. exit. Although Beijing is about 3,400 miles from Kabul, the two countries share a 50-mile border and China is expected to give early diplomatic recognition to a Taliban government in Afghanistan.

Watchdogs Sound Alarm as Rep. Ilhan Omar Continues to Evade Financial Disclosure of Reportedly Lucrative Book Deal

19th August 2021

Read it.

Multiple watchdog groups said Rep. Ilhan Omar may have violated federal law for failing to mention any income received from her critically-acclaimed 2020 memoir in her latest financial disclosure report filed on Friday.

Omar, D-Minn., reportedly signed a deal worth up to $250,000 for her memoir “This Is What America Looks Like” in January 2019, around the same time she was sworn into Congress.

Omar’s communications director said the House Ethics Committee approved the book deal, but the Democratic lawmaker’s financial disclosures covering the calendar years 2018 and 2019 contain no mention of the book or any advance income received upon signing a deal.

Reminder: Not every beast that barks is a watchdog.

Tree DNA to Convict a Poacher for the First Time in Federal Court

17th August 2021

Read it.

After fires ripped through Washington State’s Olympic National Forest in 2018, firefighters found evidence of a tree heist gone wrong — sawed-off stumps of protected bigleaf maple trees.

They turned to tree DNA — a new area of forensic evidence — to connect the stumps with the missing tree and caught the poachers red-handed.

Well, brown-handed, anyway.

Moving Avoids California Tax? Not So Fast

16th August 2021

Read it.

Leaving the Golden State? California’s 13.3% rate is the same on ordinary income and capital gain, and under a pending tax bill the top 13.3% rate could climb to 16.8%. Plus, California has even proposed a wealth tax. Even without proposed hikes, paying 13.3% in non-deductible state taxes (after the IRS $10,000 cap) is painful. You can leave for Nevada, Texas, Washington or other no-tax states, but if you aren’t careful, you could end up being asked to keep paying California taxes. In some cases, California can assess taxes no matter where you live. California’s tough Franchise Tax Board (FTB) monitors the line between residents and non-residents, and can probe how and when you left. The burden is on you to show you are not a Californian. If you are in California for more than nine months, you are presumed to be a resident, and more than six months usually means that too. Moving sounds easy, but if you aren’t careful how you do it, you could end up saying goodbye California high taxes, and hello residency audit. It pays to know what you are up against.

America’s Suicide Attempt—The Sequel

16th August 2021

Read it.

The scale of failure in Afghanistan is hard to overstate. Our “intelligence” services (who deserve to be referred to in scare quotes until they display some actual intelligence some day) were incapable of picking up any signs that the Taliban were arming and organizing on a large scale for their swift takeover of the entire country, or if they did gather any on-the-ground signals, their interpretive process (a polite term for “groupthink”) prevented them from drawing accurate and meaningful conclusions. This is the opposite of intelligence: it is the product of an establishment that simply lacks the capacity to think at all.

Our ‘intelligence’ agencies aren’t. That’s the bottom line. Everybody in the top echelons of the CIA, NSA, DIA, etc., ought to immediately lose their jobs.

$1 Billion in Infrastructure to Help Salmon Spawn

14th August 2021

Read it.

The bill includes funding to remove culverts, built under roadways to allow streams to flow through, reports the Northwest News Network, which is part of Northwest Public Broadcasting.

The issue is the stream flows inside culverts that are built wrong can be too swift or too shallow for fish to navigate, according to the Fish Passage Culvert Program in Snohomish County, Washington. The organization, which works to restore aquatic habitat by replacing county-owned culverts that prevent fish migration says the culverts also can create waterfalls, which keep the salmon from moving upstream.

Say this much for Jimmy Carter: it took him more than three years for his presidency to implode completely. By the end of 1979, we had high inflation, an energy crisis, American hostages in Iran, a geopolitical rival that held us in contempt and thought it has the wind of history at its back, prompting dangerous adventurism (including, ironically, in Afghanistan).

It’s only taken Joe Biden about six months to arrive at a comparable destination.

Pelosi Announcement Means House Staffers Can Earn More Than Lawmakers

13th August 2021

Read it.

Pelosi on Thursday announced that the new maximum staff pay rate will be $199,300 – a higher salary than the $174,000 earned by most members of Congress, Politico first reported. Lawmakers in leadership positions earn more.

“As Speaker, I have been proud to take steps to ensure a diversity of experience and talent among staff, so that the halls of Congress at every level, truly reflect those who we are honored to serve,” Pelosi said in the letter, The Washington Post reported.

Pelosi also said the pay increase “helps ensure parity between employees of the House of Representatives and other employees of the Federal Government.”

Since most Congressmen are millionaires anyway, and seldom depend on their salaries for living expenses, this means more cushy high-paying jobs to distribute among the party faithful (and their offspring).

Democrats s to Pass ‘SALT Cap Relief’ Tax Break for Wealthy

11th August 2021

Read it.

The fiscal 2022 Senate Democratic budget proposal released on Monday calls for “SALT cap relief” among its sweeping measures. While the budget is not legislation and is not binding, approving it would unlock a legislative process that would allow for Democrats to enact legislation with a simple majority in the Senate, meaning that Republicans could not block it using the filibuster.

The proposal comes after vocal advocates in the self-described “SALT caucus” pushed for changes to the tax code. A $10,000 cap on the SALT deduction, which largely benefits high-income households, was imposed by Republicans as part of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which was signed by then-President Donald Trump.

Members of the SALT caucus, which include both Republicans and Democrats, hail from high-tax states and argue that the cap doesn’t just affect wealthy people because of the cost of living in their districts, although the Tax Policy Center found that only 3% of middle-income households would pay less in taxes if the cap is removed.

Are the Courts Committed to Liberty?

10th August 2021

Read it.

I read this morning about how some companies are deducting $50 from unvaccinated employees’ pay. My mind immediately went to how an employee (and their lawyer) would go about making out a claim against their employer and the defenses that the employer might assert. Is there a documented difference in medical expense between the vaccinated and unvaccinated employee? Does the employer track health information about employees and apply a surcharge for costs associated with other chronic or lifestyle sourced health outcomes for which the employer pays?

But then I paused and thought about how rigorous a court these days would be in protecting the rights of the individual employee or any individual these days? Sure, there is a lot of procedural protections in criminal cases and these are non-controversial in contemporary law. It is kind of a muscle memory of the courts to apply Miranda rights and evidence exclusion when criminal due process is at issue. Rights are routinely safeguarded except, maybe, in the Capitol breach cases; except, maybe, in health orders that restrict religious practice; except, maybe in landlord-tenant rights in a pandemic; except, maybe…. You see where I am going.

Texas Dem Judge Blocks Arrest of AWOL State House Democrats

9th August 2021

Read it.

State District Judge Brad Urrutia in Travis County, which includes the state Capitol in Austin, Texas, issued the temporary restraining order late Sunday night, The Texas Tribune reported Monday.

The order is for 14 days unless extended by Urrutia and it blocks state police – on the permission of GOP Gov. Greg Abbott and GOP House Speak Dade Phelan – from “detaining, confining, or otherwise restricting” free movement of Texas House Democrats that fled the state to avoid losing votes in another special session, according to the report.

According to Fox News, it seems that they stood by and let Antifa violently break up a Christian outdoor worship event on the waterfront and the police did nothing. Before they turned their thuggish attention to the “Proud Boys” who came later, the Antifa goons…

are seen spraying red and yellow gas at the group of worshippers, as other Antifa members steal sound equipment, lawn chairs and wagons left across the lawn by families who had come to listen to the pastor speak.

And again, while this was happening, the police stood by and did not intervene. Antifa threw projectiles at children and pepper-sprayed a pastor. In their coverage of the incident, Fox News mentions that brave journalist Andy Ngo has documented this disgusting display of cowardice in the face of violence toward innocent civilians.

The Andrew Cuomo Experience

4th August 2021

Read it.

Andrew Cuomo signifies the privilege that Democrats enjoy to suppress news of their their own misconduct and ineptitude while basking in the esteem of the media (video below). He won an Emmy for his “masterful” daily Covid spiels. He took home a $5 million dollar deal on a book touting his “leadership lessons” from the epidemic — “leadership” that he displayed most prominently in policies that fostered New York’s wave of nursing home deaths.

I’m pretty alert to such problems these days. Soap doesn’t work. Toilets don’t flush. Clothes washers don’t clean. Light bulbs don’t illuminate. Refrigerators break too soon. Paint discolors. Lawnmowers have to be hacked. It’s all caused by idiotic government regulations that are wrecking our lives one consumer product at a time, all in ways we hardly notice.

Biden’s Radical Prosecutor Nominee Faces Mounting Opposition

Read it.

President Joe Biden’s nominee for U.S. attorney for Massachusetts is facing opposition from the halls of Congress to the streets of Boston as her nomination moves to a vote.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R., Ark.) said he plans to block Rachael Rollins’s nomination in light of her refusal to prosecute crimes as district attorney for Suffolk County. Rollins has said she will not prosecute a number of crimes, including theft and drug dealing. The Washington Free Beacon has reported that Rollins worked closely with a criminal justice reform group that wants to defund police departments.
