Larry Krasner files a lawsuit to prevent Mayor Cherelle Parker Mullins plans to clean up Kensington.

Oh, that’s not how the George Soros-sponsored, police-hating, softer-than-Charmin-on-crime District Attorney would put it, publicly, but that’s his intention.

“No man’s life, liberty or property are safe while the Democrats are in control.”

“No man’s life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session,” is a quote attributed to both Mark Twain and Gideon Tucker, but, rather than the Legislature, I would amend it to say, “No man’s life, liberty, or property are safe while the Democrats are in control.”

We have recently reported on property rights not being protected from squatters in Philadelphia, and how Governor Maura Healey (D-MA) has asked, asked, mind you, residents to provide shelter for the influx of illegal immigrants in their homes. In older stories, we reported on how property rights are simply not respected by the left.

Then there was this:

By Kyle Swenson, Staff Writer | May 5, 2021 | 3:11 PM EDT

A federal judge in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday ruled that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention overstepped its legal authority by issuing a nationwide eviction moratorium, a ruling that could affect millions of struggling Americans. Continue reading →

Would you agree to house illegal immigrants in your home? Not just no, but Hell no!

I will admit it: when I first saw this tweet, which contained no documentary link, I said to myself, “Self, this just has to be faked, so I Google searched for it. Guess what?

Governor Healey asks residents to house migrant families amid growing shelter crisis

by Kelly Sullivan | August 9, 2023 | 6:18 AM EDT

The state’s shelters are reaching capacity and now the governor is asking residents to help by opening their doors. That was part of Governor Maura Healey’s announcement–as she also is looking for help from the federal government. Continue reading →

In Philly, it seems that squatters have more rights than property owners There's a point at which the more moderate Democrats do little more than enable the far left.

We have previously noted how the left in Philadelphia do not respect people’s property rights, and how no one in the city cannot ever be expected to protect property rights. Naturally, The Philadelphia Inquirer would never report on this story, but the New York Post did:

Philadelphia homeowner is forced to pay $1.2K to get squatters out after cops refused to intervene

By Melissa Koenig | Monday, January 8, 2024 | 2:42 PM EST

A Philadelphia homeowner says he was forced to pay squatters who changed the locks and left the property a mess $1,200 to leave after city officials refused to intervene. Continue reading →

Journolism: The credentialed media don’t exactly lie, but they conceal politically incorrect facts

We have previously reported that today’s professional journalists rarely deliberately lie to us, but that they often omit rather important parts of the story. This was an Associated Press story, an ostensibly straight news piece, in which the writer managed to omit the most important part of the story. Read on and you’ll see why I frequently refer to journolists[1]The spelling ‘journolist’ or ‘journolism’ comes from JournoList, an email list of 400 influential and politically liberal journalists, the exposure of which called into question their … Continue reading as opposed to journalists!

He will not do well in prison

We have previously noted when the Lexington Herald-Leader deliberately structured a story to conceal the sexual orientation of an offender, so I was pleasantly surprised when the newspaper told the truth on Wednesday:

Former EKU professor pleads guilty to child pornography charges, prosecutors say

by Taylor Six | Wednesday, January 3, 2024 | 4:08 PM EST

Kyle Knezevich, photo by Madison County Detention Center, and is a public record.

A former Eastern Kentucky University professor who was found to be putting cameras in men’s bathrooms and locker rooms has pleaded guilty to federal sex crimes.

Kyle Knezevich, 36, pleaded guilty to attempting to produce child pornography charges Tuesday, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

Knezevich originally faced charges of voyeurism, possessing matter portraying sexual performance by a minor, promoting a minor in a sexual performance, five counts of promoting a sexual performance by a minor and five counts of possessing matter of a sexual performance of a minor, according to court records.

On Sept. 7, an EKU student located a hidden camera inside the Whalen Complex on campus. An investigation revealed that the camera had been placed in the bathroom by Knezevich, who at the time was a professor at the university. Law enforcement obtained a search warrant for Knezevich’s home and electronic devices.

He was arrested the next day. Continue reading →

The left are aghast when conservatives use the same weapons liberals use.

It really didn’t take all that long for the Usual Suspects to slam former Harvard University President Claudine Gay’s resignation as the result of a vicious campaign by wicked Far-Right Extremists. Nikole Hannah-Jones, whose claim to fame is the creation of the 1619 Project on the history of slavery in the United States, tweeting about Dr Gay’s resignation: Continue reading →

Another two bite the dust! Two haters of Jews are out of their jobs

It looked like, unlike former University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill, Claudine Gay, the President of Harvard University, was going to survive in her job. But she’s gone, gone, gone! From The Harvard Crimson:

Harvard President Claudine Gay resigns, shortest tenure in university history

By Emma H. Haidar and Cam E. Kettles, Crimson Staff Writers | Tuesday, January 2, 2024 |  12;57 PM EST

Harvard President Claudine Gay will resign Tuesday afternoon, bringing an end to the shortest presidency in the University’s history, according to a person with knowledge of the decision.

I’ve got to put the rest of this below the fold, because I simply had to embed Queen’s “Another one bites the dust!” Read on, because it isn’t only Dr Gay who has bitten the dust today! Continue reading →

In which Corey Jackson tells us that non-white ethnic groups just aren’t equal to white Americans

Assemblyman Corey Jackson, from his official biography page, and is a public document.

California state Assemblyman Corey A Jackson is not someone you would ordinarily think believed that non-white persons simply aren’t equal with whites, but darned if that isn’t exactly what he believed. Elected in 2022 to represent the 60th Assembly District, his main concern seems to be race. He was aghast, appalled, and definitely clutching his pearls when the Supreme Court ruled that yes, discrimination on the basis of race was unconstitutional in Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. President and Fellows of Harvard College, as well as the 2020 rejection of the Pyrite State’s Proposition 16, by the huge margin of 57.2% to 42.8%, which sought to overturn the 1996 state constitutional amendment which banned discrimination on the basis of race, sex, national origin and ethnicity as a factor in public university admissions and other state programs.

Think about that: in the ‘bluest’ of our blue states, an attempt to reinstate racial preferences, in which the proponents outspent the opposition by roughly 14-to-1, the attempt was defeated by a landslide margin. Continue reading →
