[PJMedia] Never mind that antifa and BLM burned our cities with impunity for over a year. If you lean right you will pay the price.
Henry "Enrique" Tarrio, the leader of the Proud Boys, a right-leaning group of "Western chauvinist" men who support Trump and drink a lot of booze, was arrested on January 4 for burning a BLM flag purloined from Asbury United Methodist Church in Washington, D.C., in December of 2020. At the time of his arrest, he was found with two semi-automatic magazines with the "Proud Boys" logo on them, which he claimed he was selling. The magazines were unloaded and Tarrio was unarmed.
Superior Court Judge Harold Cushenberry came down hard on Tarrio and sentenced him to roughly five months in prison, two months longer than prosecutors had asked for.
"Mr. Tarrio has clearly — intentionally and proudly — crossed the line from peaceful protest and assembly to dangerous and potentially violent mostly peaceful criminal conduct," the judge said.
Tarrio told the court he was "profusely" sorry for his actions, referring to them as a "grave mistake."
"What I did was wrong," Tarrio said during the videoconference hearing.
Fact-O-Rama! Though leftists consider the Proud Boys to be a group of "white supremacists," Tarrio, their leader, is of Afro-Cuban descent.
After his January 4 arrest, Tarrio was ordered to stay away from Washington. Law enforcement later said Tarrio was picked up in part to help quell potential violence.

[WashingtonFreeBeacon] Marines will lose their pensions, tuition assistance, and access to the G.I. bill, along with other military benefits, if they refuse the COVID-19 vaccination, according to internal emails reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.
An Aug. 18 email from Col. Teague Pastel, a commanding officer at the Marine Barracks in Washington, D.C., told colleagues that although "vaccines are still voluntary," the military believes "they will become mandatory in the near future." The penalties for refusing the coronavirus vaccination, Pastel wrote, should be in line with others for insubordination. Those penalties include "administration separation," a demerit in the Marine's personal file, as well as the forfeiture of various retirement and financial benefits.
"Please continue engaging with our troops on the importance of vaccinating, and stress that it is still voluntary at this time. However, once the vaccine becomes mandatory they need to be prepared to separate and potentially lose benefits," Pastel's email reads. "If the Marines are not willing to lose the benefits then they should just get the vaccine now."
Pastel sent the email prior to the Food and Drug Administration's Monday move to approve the Pfizer vaccine, which opened the door for the military to mandate it for its members. The Pentagon announced the vaccine mandate within hours of FDA approval.
Although military officials, including Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Mark Milley, previously discussed mandating the vaccine, how they planned on implementing it remained unknown. The memo obtained by the Free Beacon describes how the armed forces plans to use a variety of draconian measures to make life as an unvaccinated troop as difficult as possible.
"As you continue engaging with your Marines and Sailors about volunteering to get the vaccine now instead of waiting, please ensure they know the anticipated ramifications of refusing to vaccinate," Pastel says in the memo. He then says those who decline the vaccination will lose out on tuition assistance, "Post 9/11 G.I. Bill" benefits, as well as retirement contributions and credits.
The Marine Corps did not respond to a request for comment.
The Pentagon says more than one million troops are fully vaccinated, with another 237,000 receiving one dose. The percentage of those vaccinated by branch varies greatly, according to the military's latest numbers. The Department of the Navy, of which the Marines are a part, says 74 percent of its members have received at least one dose of the vaccine.
Other branches of the military have struggled to get their members vaccinated, with the Air Force seeing over 65 percent of its active force at least partially vaccinated. The Army has the lowest vaccination rate at around 50 percent.
Mike Kozlowski submitted another article on the subject, commenting:
...Lemme tell y'all a story.
In the late 90s, the USAF couldn't get anybody to volunteer for the career and marriage destroying duty that was Recruiting, so some genius decided that ALL Staff Sergeants returning from overseas during a 90-day period were going to be recruiters whether they wanted to or not. When asked what would happen if these folks declined, the answer was "They'll be discharged - and they're far too invested in their careers at this point to walk away and lose everything now."
Dear 'Burgers, since you're here and you're reading this, it's likely you've already figured out what happened next. The OFFICIAL number of decliners was "in the low double digits", but it was enough to make the USAF very quietly kill the program. I was told on a couple of occasions later that the actual number (those who actually said no and those who indicated they were going to) was closing in on 50%, which would have crippled the junior NCO corps for years had they actually been separated.
The takeaway should be this: The USAF utterly failed to realize just how resistable an idiotic and ill considered 'irresistable' program could be. The United States Marine Corps - famed for the courage of its men and women, less so for the intelligence of some of its senior leadership at times - may well be about to learn the same lesson.

[al-Rooters] Booyah! HT Insty
The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected President Joe Biden's bid to avoid reinstating an immigration policy implemented by his predecessor, Donald Trump, that forced thousands of asylum seekers to stay in Mexico awaiting U.S. hearings.
The court, with three liberal justices dissenting, rejected the Biden administration's effort to block a Texas-based judge's ruling requiring the government to revive Trump's "remain in Mexico" policy, formally known as the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) program.
The brief order by the justices means that U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk's ruling now goes into effect.
The court's decision referenced its 2020 ruling that thwarted Trump's bid to end a program introduced by Democratic former President Barack Obama that protects from deportation hundreds of thousands of immigrants - often called "Dreamers" - who entered the United States illegally as children.
Both cases concern whether the government followed the correct legal process in unwinding a previous administration's policy.
Biden, who has sought since taking office in January to reverse many of Trump's hardline immigration policies, rolled back the MPP program. Republican-led Texas and Missouri challenged the Democratic president's move.
The high court said the administration failed to show the decision to end the policy was not arbitrary and capricious.
Justices Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan dissented.
The administration formally repealed the policy in June despite the crisis at the border. Kacsmaryk ruled to reinstate the policy in early August, ruling the program was ended illegally. Kacsmaryk said the policy must be reinstated until it was "lawfully rescinded" and the administration had the capacity to hold all migrants. The ruling was not put in place immediately, and the Biden administration was given one week to file an appeal.

If they do, it further undermines the legitimacy of the national government. If you haven't been keeping track its all spiraling quickly down. At a certain point, we'll join the Russian people in walking away from the vestiges of the central government.

[HotAir] Kamala Harris is on her second trip overseas, representing Joe Biden to our allies in Southeast Asia. She delivered a foreign policy speech in Singapore Tuesday in which she presented the Biden administration’s vision for the Indo-Pacific. She took the opportunity to criticize China for its incursions in the South China Sea.
...China hit back, with Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin invoking Afghanistan in his response to a question about Harris’ comments, saying the messy withdrawal from Kabul showed the U.S. had lost credibility. He charged that the U.S. "can smear, suppress, coerce, and bully other countries at will in order to maintain America first, without paying any price."
"This is the order that the U.S. wants. The U.S. always tries to make use of the rules and order to justify its own selfish, bullying and hegemonic behavior, but who still believe it now?" Wang said.

My prediction has seeped into the Cosmic Unconsciousness! Now we just have to wait for the probability wave to collapse and see who the new Veep is. (Please Gawd, don't let it be John Kerry. It's going to be John Kerry, isn't it?)

[Breitbart] House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and moderate Democrats struck a compromise Tuesday on the path forward to voting on the so-called bipartisan infrastructure bill and adopting the $3.5 trillion budget resolution.
The House passed on H. Res. 601, the resolution that contains the rule for the House to consider the so-called bipartisan infrastructure bill, otherwise known as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, S. Con. Res. 14, the budget resolution, and H.R. 4, the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act of 2021.
The measure passed 220-212, after House moderate Democrats led a revolt against Pelosi. Democrats passed the bill on partisan lines, with strong GOP opposition to the bill.

The press is fully aware that come 1 September 2021 their access to events in Afghanistan will terminate (as planned).
Anyone see any estimates on Americans still trapped in Afghanistan? One or two, twenty, three dozen, a thousand? No, and you won't. After 1 September, it will no longer be a topic of discussion. How can accountability happen if there is no evidence.

"It’s important that people have faith," she continued. "Our strength comes from the faith and the confidence of the people who put us in these offices and I take that very seriously."
The looming wave of evictions from the pandemic is among the most immediate challenges facing Hochul, as the state’s federally funded tenant and landlord rescue program remains mired by delays, a glitchy computer system and a failure to get the word out about the effort.

[NY Post] Outgoing New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo marked his final day in office Monday by handing out four sentence commutations and one pardon. He also made a parole board referral for a 76-year-old man over his role in the deadly 1981 Brink’s armored car robbery.
David Gilbert, a Weather Underground member who was convicted of three counts of second-degree murder and four counts of first-degree robbery for his role in the crime that resulted in the deaths of Nyack police Sgt. Edward O’Grady and Officer Waverly Brown as well as Brink’s guard Peter Paige. He was serving a sentence of 75 years to life in prison with no possibility of parole until 2056.
Gilbert’s son, San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin, had lobbied Cuomo for his release.
Boudin’s mother, Kathy, also took part in the robbery. She pleaded guilty to felony murder and robbery charges and was paroled in 2003.

Not necessarily the truth. It was only 60 days ago that they admitted myocarditis and pericarditis, after months of denials. They still have no answer for the heart swelling found in teens, and just two weeks ago agreed to study it, until then it was called antidotal my the FDA. They have yet to look into the micro clots, proteins migrating to the ovaries, post menopauses bleeding and other issues.

Angstron, I listened to a interview with the guy that designed this vaccine. Its his opinion, and I agree, that this virus will never go away. It will morph over and over. There will be no ending it like we did with Polio. With that said he wanted to make it an annual vaccine aligned with the flu shot. Those who desire it and those most at risk should take it. Then leave the rest of us alone to make our own decisions.
