Jennifer at RedState had this up first, but the attacks on law enforcement have entered a new odious phase: poisoning. During the George Floyd rioting, we saw cops getting run over, shot at, and beaten across the country. Floyd was killed on May 25 after he was arrested by the Minneapolis Police. The four officers involved…
A friend sent me this Chicago Tribune story over the weekend, and I had to read its key passage twice to make sure I was understanding it correctly. Unfortunately, I was. Amid all manner of unhinged derangement coursing through our society in this season of tumult, this still reads as satire. Alas, satire seems to be facing cancellation at the hands of…
The leadership in Seattle appeared to be in disarray on Friday after the city’s embattled mayor called the protesters who took over an “autonomous zone” in the city “patriotic” while the official who ordered police to flee the nearby precinct has refused to come forward.

A law enforcement officer in Georgia is going viral after he said he “has much respect” for Black Lives Matter protesters after the death of George Floyd — but he only kneels “for one person.” Georgia State Trooper O’Neal Saddler was allegedly asked to kneel during a demonstration in Hartwell while a bystander was recording. “If I didn’t have any respect, I wouldn’t [be…
CNN’s Alisyn Camerota gave Minneapolis City Council President Lisa Bender a chance to clarify her stance on the police, after the council signaled their intentions to abolish their police force. She wasn’t really saying that she wanted to “dismantle” the police was she? That she foresaw a “police-free future?” Oh yes, she was. “Yeah, and…
Well, it’s former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s day to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee about the Russian collusion fiasco. And it’s not going very well. Well, for starters, Rosenstein doesn’t feel that disgraced ex-Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe lied to him. McCabe was fired because he lied. He, like Robert Mueller, also appeared…
Drew Brees created an uproar Wednesday when he defended his stance against players kneeling during the national anthem, but found at least two people with New Orleans Saints tied in his corner.

Look, if it weren’t for the rioting, I would be forcefully supporting the peaceful and nonviolent protests calling for justice after the horrific death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis Police.

We’re in serious need of some positive news, and it looks like it may be arriving in the somewhat unlikely form of an update on the global coronavirus pandemic.

But I’m here. My brother wasn’t about that. My…
As we all were last night, President Trump was watching Minneapolis descend into total anarchy. Our own Julio Rosas is there documenting the insanity. The looting has not subsided. The violence intensified. And it culminated in the police headquarters in the city’s third precinct being evacuated, overrun by rioters, and then set ablaze. Police and firefighters were reportedly…
White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany is fairly new to her role, but she’s already used to fielding nonsense questions from the press. The dumb questions kept rolling on Tuesday.

During the White House press briefing Friday afternoon, Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany ripped reporters for a lack of “journalistic curiosity” and failing to ask Obama administration officials about the unmasking of General Michael Flynn. “Number one.
