And sweet sweet dose of cosmic Karma.

It could not happen to a bigger asshole:

Page Six reports – The coronavirus dealt a massive blow to the actor’s finances, he revealed in court, as his estranged wife asked for an emergency order to raise her monthly American Express card credit limit from $50,000 to $100,000.

The “The Irishman” actor appeared on a Skype call in his Manhattan divorce case with Grace Hightower as her lawyer told a judge that De Niro unfairly cut her monthly AmEx allowance from $100,000 to $50,000 and said she and their children had been banned from an upstate compound where De Niro is staying during the pandemic.
….
De Niro’s lawyer, Caroline Krauss, told the judge that Nobu lost $3 million in April and another $1.87 million in May. And he had to pay investors $500,000 on a capital call, which he borrowed money from his business partners to make, “because he doesn’t have the cash,” Krauss said.

BREAKING: “I’d Like To Punch Trump In The Face” Actor Robert De Niro Is Running Out Of Money

Well, he can start selling all the stuff he own, starting with that compound in upstate NY (How come he is not in NYC? No trust in de Blasio and Cuomo) and I am sure there is plenty memorabilia he can put up in eBay if he needs some fast cash.

He can go broke for all I care.

The Government hates competition and good people.

For many American craft distillers, 2020 was already one of their worst years ever. The COVID-19-related closure of tasting rooms and cocktail bars, loss of tourism, and inability to offer in-store sampling slashed their sales revenue and cut them off from their customers. Then this week, just as it seemed they’d made it through the worst of a terrible year, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had one more surprise in store: The agency delivered notice to distilleries that had produced hand sanitizer in the early days of the pandemic that they now owe an unexpected fee to the government of more than $14,000.

When There Wasn’t Enough Hand Sanitizer, Distilleries Stepped Up. Now They’re Facing $14,060 FDA Fees.

Since the foundation of this country, Distillers and Government have been at odds; sometimes lightly and sometimes all the way trampling with constitutional rights and creating long-lasting agencies that kill citizens because they can and need to prance in front of TV cameras.

And, goes without saying, government understand pretty well that a populace that can provide for themselves, does not need them and can make them shrink or disappear.  This is not being mean, this is punishment for Attempted  Murder of a Bureaucratic Office in the First Degree.

I am very mad

In case you missed the news, Congressman-Elect Luke Letlow died of complications from COVID.

Many on the Left are dancing on his grave, rejoicing in “told you so” and saying things about how he deserved it for being “anti-science” and so on.

He left behind a wife and two young children.

So help me God I am tired of the faux calls for unity.

I want nothing more than to take every single one of these people mocking the Letlow family and force their spouses and children to watch as they are put to the wall.

Compassion goes both ways.  So does a lack of compassion.

Start making your plans: Southwest Florida Blogshoot: February 20.

From Borepatch:

February Southwest Florida Blogshoot

Apologies for the lack of posting – The Queen Of The World and I had a houseguest from the Camp Borepatch days, and while it was great fun it pretty much filled the days.

But folks are asking about the February blogshoot so let me poll the readership.  Leave a comment if you can be in the area for a blogshoot on February 20.  Also say whether you know of a range that could handle the crowd (we had over 20 for the first).

I’m pretty sure I can get the private range at the gun club this far out (and will make sure that the wires won’t get crossed again – we will have both a 25 yard pistol range and a 200 yard rifle range).  If we do it here again The Queen Of The World says she’ll cater it again but some people couldn’t make the trip and I’m happy to travel if there’s another range.


I am in.  I am ever so in.

Comrade Kaprugina lives in Tacoma

For context:

Over 40 Units At Port Of Tacoma Travelodge Occupied To Provide Emergency Housing

We’re on day 4 of the hotel occupation and settling in for night 4! [According to The News Tribute, “After paying for the initial night, the occupants have refused to pay or leave for four days.”] Negotiations with the hotel owner, city, and county start tomorrow, but we have 50-70 people ready to defend if needed. Housing activists from Tacoma Housing Now, Seattle (the Yellow House), and Olympia have coalesced into a broad Puget Sound coalition that will support housing actions in each other’s cities. Most of our medics on-site are veterans of the recent far-Right battles in Olympia that saw two antifascist protestors shot.

 

Here is a flyer they released:

 

In short, Antifa rented 16 rooms of a motel on Christmas to house 40 homeless people.  They are continuing to occupy the rooms and are not paying.

They claim that they should be able to stay there because the owner got PPP money and they want the city and state to pay for outstanding costs.

They are calling for a small militia to defend them from eviction by police.

The owner of the Travelodge franchise is being held hostage.  The city is negotiating with the activists while they destroy his property and refuse to pay him.

I am reminded, once again, of this scene from Doctor Zhivago.

 

The communists have taken a building in Tacoma and are using it to get what they want.  Oilfield Rando is right, in modern Leftist America, violence works and might makes right.

When communists occupy a building and take a hostage, SWAT should be sent in to clear them out with MP5s.  Instead, they get grant money.

This will only embolden them to occupy more private businesses and take more hostages.

Also, I’d like to point out something from the article above:

“Most of our medics on-site are veterans of the recent far-Right battles in Olympia that saw two antifascist protestors shot.”

They consider themselves to be veterans of a war against the United States and the “far-Right.”

They know they are at war with us, why don’t we acknowledge that fact?

Another protester car ambush – Update

This is why North Dakota, North Carolina, Florida, Tennessee, and Texas have bills on the table to run protesters the fuck over if they attack cars.

This guy is boxed in.

Cars to the left, right, and rear, and protesters to the front.  He can do nothing but sit there with the doors locked praying that the protesters can’t smash through the windows.

IANAL, but in at least a dozen states, I’m pretty sure it would be legal at this point to start shooting protesters.

Especially that double foot jump guy that caved in the windshield.  Any reasonable person would be afraid that the protesters were trying to force their way into the vehicle to do harm to the driver.

https://twitter.com/DrWinarick/status/1344132604036067328

They were most definitely trying to break their way into the car to do harm and the people inside were terrified.

I am now as certain as I can be as an internet amateur (IANAL) that the shooting would start and would be legal in a shall issue, stand your ground state.

Especially if my kids were in the back seat and someone was trying to punch their way in through a rear window.

As for the places where you can’t carry a gun, just stay the hell out of them.

Although, given the cost of ammo right now, you might be able to carry there with the argument that it’s not a gun, but a portable ATM dispensing $5 tokens.
