Hold them accountable! No one is above the law, our good friends on the left said. That should include those who break our immigration laws, and those who enable them.

We reported on Tuesday how many law enforcement agencies in Kentucky were cooperating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and now we’re seeing some of the same in the Keystone State. The activists are, of course, thoroughly incensed:

“We don’t need our local police enforcing federal law. It is not their job and has proven time and again to harm public safety,” said Jasmine Rivera, executive director of the Pennsylvania Immigration Coalition. “ICE and billionaires profiting off federal contracts are making billions of dollars from kidnapping our people. They are terrorizing families and attacking our neighbors who are literally building our communities. We don’t need $240 billion of our tax dollars to go to ICE and [U.S. Customs and Border Protection]; we need that money to make education, healthcare, and housing affordable.”

It wasn’t that long ago that our good friends on the left were telling us that “no one is above the law,” during their efforts to put then-former President Donald Trump in jail. Now, returned to office, Mr Trump agrees with that statement, and is enforcing our immigration laws, and shazamm! the left are trying to say that illegal immigrants should be above the law!

Kentucky is not a sanctuary state! But if candy Andy Beshear had his way, we probably would be.

While we continually see the so-called “sanctuary” cities and counties trying to frustrate federal enforcement of our immigration laws, at least parts of Kentucky are doing their jobs! And while the Lexington Herald-Leader’s editorial orientation is toward the left of the political spectrum, reporter Beth Musgrave’s article is politically neutral.

You in a heap o’ trouble, boy!

So, a man who had managed to keep a clean record himself was hanging around previously convicted felons, and has now been sentenced to five years of three-hots-and-a-cot. Normally I would include the criminals mugshot, something the Lexington Herald-Leader will not do, but the internet search for this fine gentleman’s mugshot turned up images of more than one person, and I cannot be certain which one is this new guest of the federal government.

Sometimes you just have to be an [insert slang term for the anus here] to do things right The beautiful, liberal city of Burlington, Vermont, is awash with junkies

In May of 2024, we noted Olivia Reingold’s reporting that addiction activists say they’re ‘reducing harm’ in Philly, but Kensington locals say they’re causing it. Of course, Miss Reingold’s article appeared in The Free Press, a site which is definitely not free, and was started by the liberal, but certainly not #woke[1]From Wikipedia: Woke (/ˈwoʊk/) as a political term of African-American origin refers to a perceived awareness of issues concerning social justice and racial justice. It is derived from … Continue reading leftist Bari Weiss, whom our good friends on the left now hate because she’s trying to right the ship — meaning: reduce the liberal bias — on CBS News.

But what happens when the story comes via the Boston Globe? Will the left pay any more attention?

Woke (/ˈwoʊk/) as a political term of African-American origin refers to a perceived awareness of issues concerning social justice and racial justice. It is derived from the African-American Vernacular English expression “stay woke“, whose grammatical aspect refers to a continuing awareness of these issues. By the late 2010s, woke had been adopted as a more generic slang term broadly associated with left-wing politics and cultural issues (with the terms woke culture and woke politics also being used). It has been the subject of memes and ironic usage. Its widespread use since 2014 is a result of the Black Lives Matter movement.

I shall confess to sometimes “ironic usage” of the term. To put it bluntly, I think that the ‘woke’ are just boneheadedly stupid.

Dear Lexington gang-bangers: imitating Killadelphia isn’t a good idea.

Did I jinx the city of Lexington? The Lexington Herald-Leader reported Saturday afternoon that:

(This) was the third weekend in a row for fatal shootings in Lexington, after six months when no homicides were reported.

I noted, on August 14th:

Lexington, Kentucky, current population 329,791, has seen four murders so far in 2026. Philly has 4.77 times Lexington’s population, but 27 times as many murders.

I’d like to think that the gang-bangers in Lexington didn’t take what I wrote as a personal challenge! Continue reading →

That thing that never happens has happened again

To avoid copyright infringements, I like to use posts on Twitter as illustrations, because the fact that the original author has allowed them to be retweeted means that I can use the images! Well, this time, rather than using Twitter, I used the one I sent to Bluesky, just to pull the leftists’ chains, but yeah, I put it on Twitter — I refuse to call it 𝕏 — as well.

Thank the Lord that I am not an attorney!

Brandon Dockery, mugshot by Fayette County Detention Center, and is a public record.

As I was being graduated from the University of Kentucky in 1977, I was seriously considering going to law school. I had totally destroyed the LSAT, and thought it would be a good fit for my obviously brilliant mind and quick thinking. But, alas!, law school was simply not something I could ever afford, and, as my career progressed, it has become more and more obvious that a career as an attorney would not have been a good fit for me. Nothing has made that more clear to me than the case of Brandon Dockery. As this site reported, in August of 2021, on the arrest of Brandon Dockery for the murder of Raymar Webb, I simply could not have put myself through what defense attorneys Cherish Derrickson and Caitlin Dunnington did to try to defend Mr Dockery.

Sometimes you just have to be an [insert slang term for the anus here] to do things right

My good friend and sometime blog pinch hitter William Teach noted the Associated Press story, “ICE arrests jumped to nearly 50,000 in July, the highest monthly total of Trump’s second term.” That’s great, but let’s do the math. 50,000 arrests, and hopefully deportations, times 12 equals just 600,000 per year. In the 30 months remaining in President Trump’s term, that works out to 1,500,000, which would make a small dent in the population of illegal immigrants in our country. If we assume that J D Vance becomes the next President, and he continues President Trump’s immigration enforcement policies for two full terms, 96 months, that has an additional 4,800,000 illegals arrested and hopefully deported, a nice number, but still just a fraction of the number of illegals already here.

The real solution is for real Americans to shun companies that employ illegal immigrants: cost them profits, at which point they’ll get rid of the illegals or go out of business, and the illegals will self deport. Yes, we need actual enforcement of our laws against hiring illegals, enforcement which sends the violators to prison. A few employers spending quality time Leavenworth will get the others to comply quickly. Continue reading →

Killadelphia Yeah, the murder rate is lower now, but it's still high

We previously noted the killing of 78-year-old Steve Alexander, killed by what reporters Ellie Rushing and Jesse Bunch called a “stray bullet” as four men jumped out of an SUV and fired more than fifty rounds “toward a group of young men on the sidewalk.” The Philadelphia Inquirer has been very careful not to call it a gang hit, at least in the articles I have seen so far, but they have at least stated that the 30-year-old victim, previously referred to as being 31-years old, was the actual target.

Over 50 rounds fired, three people struck, only one killed, and he wasn’t even the target, but just collateral damage. Gang-bangers are deadly, but still notoriously bad shots.

On August 10th, the city’s George Soros-sponsored, criminal-loving and police-hating District Attorney, Larry Krasner, said, after six homicides the previous weekend, “We had a bad weekend. We’re not having a bad year.”

Well, the bad weekends are continuing: Continue reading →
