Even a stopped clock is right twice a day Gavin Newsom is wrong on just about everything else, but he got this one right

As both of my regular readers know, I am opposed to capital punishment. It is my position that we should not kill anybody, unless it is absolutely necessary, and if we have a prisoner so securely held that he cannot prevet his own execution, he is, by any rational definition, helpless. If he is helpless, it is not necessary to kill him.

Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) is commuting the capital sentences of all 548 people on death row in the Pyrite State, although technical problems exist. This is no surprise, given that he imposed a moratorium on executione when he entered office in 2019, and California has not actually executed anyone since 2006. But some families are very upset:

Her son was raped, murdered. Newsom’s death row decision brings ‘soul-hurting pain’

By Michael McGough | November 6, 2026 | 6:42 PM PST

Among the 548 inmates sentenced to death in California is Robert Rhoades, who abducted 8-year-old Michael Lyons as he walked home from school in Yuba City on May 16, 1996, then tortured and raped him before stabbing him more than 70 times. Continue reading →

No matter how much you hate the credentialed media, you do not hate them enough! If we cannot trust the credentialed media to tell us the truth on one simple thing, how can we trust them to tell us the truth on anything else?

Donald Trump certainly enraged the credentialed media during his first campaign for President by calling them #FakeNews. WLKY, the CBS television affiliate in Louisville, Kentucky, at least skewed the headline and story enough for them not to be lies:

Person charged with murder after man fatally shot in Buechel

The shooting happened in the 200 block of Derby Avenue, down the street from Buechel Park and just off Bardstown Road. We’re told the 911 call came in just before 2 p.m. Continue reading →

You a heap o’ trouble, boys! Five gang-bangers are now off the streets, hopefully permanently

Technically, Kaleem Roland, only 17 years old, was convicted of first degree murder, but in actuality, he was convicted and will be sentenced for absolute, utter, boneheaded stupidity. Philadelphia Inquirer reporter Vinny Vella told us for what he, along with Jabriil Morgan-Cook, 20, Naseem Worrell, 19, did:

The killing of a Norristown man last year was a retaliatory shooting rooted in a bitter gang feud splitting the Montgomery County seat, prosecutors said Tuesday as the murder trial for Tahaj Harrison’s three alleged killers ended.

Now, the fate of Jabriil Morgan-Cook, 20, Naseem Worrell, 19, and Kaleem Roland, 17, is in the hands of a jury, set to deliberate Wednesday morning.

Assistant District Attorney Tanner Beck said in his closing arguments that the three were self-proclaimed members of the 300s/All Black Bandits and set out in May 2025 to “hunt” Harrison. Continue reading →

Why do ‘progressives’ want to protect criminals?

I can at least understand people who want to help illegal immigrants who have not broken any non-immigration-related laws, but who on God’s earth would want to protect the criminals? Well, apparently the Democrats do! From the New York Post, with a hat tip to William Teach:

NYC’s sanctuary DAs ordered prosecutors to downgrade charges to keep illegal immigrants in US, House GOP report finds

By Josh Christenson and Thomas English | Monday, October 26, 2026 | 6:55 PM EDT

WASHINGTON — New York City’s elected Democratic district attorneys are bending over backwards to keep illegal immigrants in the US, instructing prosecutors to downgrade charges to those considered “a non-deportable offense,” according to a stunning House Judiciary Committee report shared with The Post.

It sounds fair to me! Life in prison without the possibility of parole, plus 25 to 36 more years for other crimes!

“It’s not fair,” the convicted murderer said, after he was sentenced! To me, the only unfair thing is that not all murderers are sentenced the way he was.

A jury found Miguel Salguero-Olivares guilty of first-degree murder, rape, sexual offense and burglary in the 2012 killing of Faith Hedgepeth, a UNC-Chapel Hill student and North Carolina native. He faces multiple sentences, including life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Shane Seiber isn’t the first Philly cop killed directly due to Larry Krasner’s policies James O'Connor IV was killed in 2020 by a known criminal Mr Krasner treated leniently

We have previously noted the shooting of two Philadelphia police officers, one of whom, officer Shane Seiber, died from his wounds.

The apprehended suspect, Eric Lewis, had a previous criminal record, but all misdemeanors, which did not prohibit from owning a firearm. Then came the later news: Mr Lewis had previously been charged with murder, but was acquitted, and the city’s George Soros-sponsored, criminal-loving and police-hating District Attorney, Larry Krasner, was quick to blame the Philadelphia Police Department for the failed prosecution.

Philly police commissioner blasts DA Krasner, calls comments over alleged cop killer’s past acquittal ‘unacceptable’

Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel said the public finger-pointing in the aftermath of Officer Shane Seiber’s death was “absolutely unacceptable.”

Non-Western immigrants are causing chaos in Europe For the left to realize that means realizing that their entire mindset is wrong, wrong, wrong.

After our European friends have tried their soft socialism for decades, and it has been slowly failing, The New York Times tells us that their greatest fear should not be radicalized students and Islamic immigrants, but that bugaboo of bugaboos, the “far right”.

French President Emmanuel Macron, who didn’t like the idea of Israel fighting back after the Hamas attacks of October 7, 2023, doesn’t really want to fight back in his own country, either.

France’s Far Right Seizes the Moment as Rioting Stuns the Country

The National Rally, already ahead in the polls, presented itself as the party best placed to restore law and order.

by Catherine Poeter | Monday, October 19, 2026 | 8:55 AM EDT

After riots erupted this weekend in cities across France, its centrist government blamed the main far-left party, accusing its politicians of inciting the violence. That party blamed the government, accusing it of stirring public anger through years of bad governance and heavy-handed policing.

What did the main far-right party do? It blamed both, and launched into campaign mode.
