Pelosi found her Grand Inquisitor

From Business Insider:

Pelosi taps retired military commander, who oversaw the US response to Hurricane Katrina, to oversee probe into security failures during Capitol siege

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has tapped retired Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré to lead “an immediate review” of the security of the US Capitol Complex after armed pro-Trump insurrections ransacked it last week.

“To protect our Democracy, we must now subject the security of the U.S. Capitol Complex to rigorous scrutiny,” Pelosi said in a statement. “To that end, I have asked Lt. General Russel Honoré (Ret.), a respected leader with experience dealing with crises, to lead an immediate review of the Capitol’s security infrastructure, interagency processes and procedures, and command and control.”

Honore is one of the worst political hacks to serve in uniform.

Honore helped enforce the gun confiscation in New Orleans after Katrina when he was brought in to manage the military response after the hurricane.

He is very much anti-gun and anti-gun culture, which explains his actions in New Orleans.

He rushed to CNN to give his own Donald Trump hates black people moment after Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico, even though he wasn’t there, and the disaster was largely (entirely?) the fault of corrupt local politicians and hacks trying to make Trump look bad.

His Twitter account is full of retweets like this:

 

So clearly this guy is an impartial, non-partisan who is only interested in the truth.

No, he’s a fucking hack with three stars who is out to engage in a hatchet job against Republicans.

This is both an epic disaster and par for the Democrat course.

This is everything I have been saying about O’Sullivan’s law and the military for some time now.  A hack retired general with an axe to grind given the power to destroy a political party.

 

Always interesting to see the enemy’s weapons

Seattle PD shot and killed an active shooter and for whatever reason Antifa decided that it was Police Violence so protests were indicated.
During that protest, this happened.

If you still think Antifa is just doing a Mary Poppins by carrying umbrellas, it is time you realize they have weapons and have one advantage over you: Zero morality when it comes to use such weapons against other people. And, of course, not being prosecuted for their crimes emboldens them even more.

Prepare accordingly.

 

Another Lefty read 1984 as a how to

 

Remember your Orwell:

There will be no curiosity, no enjoyment of the process of life. All competing pleasures will be destroyed. But always— do not forget this, Winston— always there will be the intoxication of power, constantly increasing and constantly growing subtler. Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless.  If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face— forever.

It’s not about liberating people from oppression.

This is about revenge.  They claim to be oppressed, identified straight, white, mostly Christian, males as the oppressor, and now they want to stamp the boot in their face.

At least this one admits is.

LA is a sh*thole. Also, personal protection is a mindset, think about what you are doing and how to keep yourself safe.

Violent, broad-daylight armed robbers targeting people wearing Rolexes in L.A.

Since January 30, 2021, shopping and dining areas along the Melrose corridor in Mid-City Los Angeles have experienced an increase in armed robberies. Many of these robberies are taking place during daytime hours. The suspects have targeted individuals wearing high-end jewelry, specifically Rolex watches.

The suspects are described as Black males between the ages of 20 and 30 years of age. They’ve used multiple types of vehicles and appear to follow victims from restaurants and stores in the area. In most instances, the suspects wait for victims to walk to their vehicles and reach an isolated area before they attack them at gunpoint. Since January 30, Wilshire Area has had seven robberies involving Rolex watches.

Note the text in bold.

Parking in isolated areas is bad.

Not maintaining situational awareness is bad.

If you are going shopping at a high-end store, go for it.  I’ve been to Bal Harbor Shops a few times in my life.

Don’t go shopping at a high-end store then walk to your car at the ass-end of an empty parking lot, not paying attention to if people are following you.

Also, Los Angeles is a fucking shithole, stay out of there if you can.
