Mark Dice: Kamala debuts her newest personality

Kamala Harris is pulling a tattered page from the playbook of Hillary Clinton--talking in an up-until-then black accent.

Van Morrison - Double Bind (Official Audio)

During the oppressive early years of this decade, Van Morrison was one of the few musicians to fight back against the COVID lockdowns. Eric Clapton--who recorded a couple of Morrison songs--was another. 

On is fabulous triple vinyl album from 2021, Van the Man relates on the totalitarianism of the time in "Double Bind."

It’s always the opposite of what they say
'Cause they know people are easy prey 

Have to police everyone’s mind 

Nowadays you have to be careful of everything you say

But it’s all by design 

That’s why we have to break the double bind. 

'Scandal of immense proportions': White House cover-up over Biden's health

Among the worst White House scandals were coverups.

They include Woodrow Wilson's stroke in 1919, Richard Nixon and Watergate, and the Joe Biden Dementia coverup.

The same lying media that ignored or minimized Joe Biden's cognitive decline is now touting the qualities of Kamala Harris.

The lies continue.

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigns

Easily the Biden-Harris administration's worst DEI hire--because one man is dead and three others, including Donald Trump, were wounded in the assassination attempt--Kim Cheatle, the head of the US Secret Service, is resigning.

Mark Dice: Is this a joke? Kamala may NOT be the Democrat nominee! - Another shoe to drop?

Mark Dice may be reaching here. But then again, the enthusiasm for Kamala Harris isn't overwhelming.

Radios In Motion - XTC

The Republican National Convention concluded 85 miles north of me in Milwaukee on Thursday.

It was a big success for the GOP--even some liberals admit it as the Republicans renominated Donald J. Trump.

Back to Milwaukee. Other than country songs about beer, I couldn't think of any songs that mention Milwaukee.

Except for one, "Radios in Motion" from XTC's debut album, White Music. Wisconsin's largest city got a shout out because XTC's frontman and principal songwriter, Andy Partridge, had an aunt who lived there.

This is a different XTC that you might be used to. Lead guitarist Dave Gregory didn't join his fellow Swindononians until the band's third effort, Drums and Wires. Greatness followed.

Prior to Gregory joining, Barry Andrews played, in a rather bizarre fashion, keyboards. 

The pre-Gregory XTC had a punk sound, although it's more post-punk. That is, if such a thing existed in 1978.

An historic Republican National Convention officially nominated Donald J. Trump, just days after surviving an assassination attempt. 

 However, it was still a raucous gathering, unlike any prior major political convention.

36 shot, six fatally in Chicago over weekend; one mass shooting

A week after the quite bloody July 4 weekend in Chicago, 36 people were shot in the city this weekend, six of them died. There was one mass shooting where four people wounded.

The Democratic National Convention convenes in Chicago in five weeks. Can the Chicago handle that and the regular carnage?

From Da Tech Guy: The last three weeks have shown us that taxpayer-funded media is a terrible idea

Yeah, some people, particularly woke journalists, believe that taxpayers should subsidize their failures.

God bless Donald J. Trump

A bullet fired by a psychopath, Thomas Crooks, came just a half an inch from killing Donald Trump yesterday, while the former president was speaking at a rally in western Pennsylvania. 

Sadly, one of the attendees, Corey Comperatore, a former volunteer fire chief, was shot to death by the maniac, as he was shielding his family. He's a hero.

Two other people were critically wounded. 

God bless Trump, And pray for him, Comperatore, and the other victims.

Richard Thompson: We Roll

For the first time in six years, the great Richard Thompson is back with a new album, Ship to Shore.

The collection concludes with a typical song from a touring musician, about life on the road. But Thompson adds new twists to an old story.

Biden supporter and possible replacement JB Pritzker caught on hot mic sounding skeptical about Biden's election chances

In a conversation that his office admitted was about the presidential race, Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker, a possible replacement at the top of the Democratic ticket, was caught on a hot mic sounding pessimistic about the November election.

“We’re just going to keep fighting. I don’t know what to say,” the billionaire Chicago Dem said. “We’re going to do what we have to do. I don’t like where we are.” Pritzker has been, publicly at least, an ardent supporter of the failing Biden reelection effort. NBC Chicago captured the audio.

The event he was attending--along with Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson--deserves a mention. It was another one of those corporate events where guilty white Chicago area CEOs pledged money to fight violence. 

That will make them feel better, although my guess is that Chicago crime will continue get worse.

From my post at Da Tech Guy:

Cringeworthy’: Sky News host reacts to Kamala Harris being an ‘absolute clown show’

“Kamala has been deemed the future of the party, and the Democrats and Kamala deserve each other,” Sky News Australia's Rita Panahi says here.

At least 103 shot and 19 killed in Chicago over long July 4 weekend; four mass shootings

Mayor Brandon Johnson's so-called crime-fighting strategy, which includes the use of "violence interrupters," isn't working. 

Over the long Independence Day holiday, at least 103 people were shot--19 of them fatally.

There were four mass shootings. An eight-year-old boy, Bryson Orr, was slain in one of them. 

CWB Chicago reports that Deputy Mayor of Community Safety Garien Gatewood, who appeared at a weekend press conference about the carnage, ducked a question regarding whether the city's anti-crime policies are working. After Johnson, who once supported the Defund the Police movement, appointed Gatewood to that position, a statement issued by the city said he would "lead cross-government efforts to eradicate the root causes of crime and violence, and advance a comprehensive, healing-centered approach to public safety."

So far--no good. 

Two months ago, Larry Snelling, Johnson's pick to lead the Chicago Police Department, said that the city was short 2,000 police officers. 

He didn't comment on "violence interrupters."

From my post at Da Tech Guy:

Still ongoing, the July 4th weekend is particularly violent. My take on it is below:

XTC - Standing in for Joe

As of this writing, cognitively challenged Joe Biden is still running for reelection. 

 As I've noted at least two years ago, Biden is senile and should resign. 

In the meantime, this song, "Standing in for Joe," a Colin Moulding-penned tune from XTC's final album, Wasp Star, has been going through my head. 

It's time to you to go, Joe.

Chicago police conduct 'mass arrest' in Lakeview following Pride parade

Chicago's decline and fall continues. 

"They said pride," WGN-TV's Brónagh Tumulty says here, "before the fall." She said it, not me. 

Over 50 people were arrested, some with felonies, after what appears to have been a nighttime riot after Sunday's Pride Parade in Lakeview. 

But Cook County's catch-and-release alleged prosecutor, Kim Foxx, very well may drop all of the charges. It is her nature.

The Democrat National Convention comes to the West Side next month.

Look out.

At least 35 shot and 4 killed over weekend in Chicago; Pride Parade riot?

June is over and people are still shooting each other in Chicago. Over the past weekend, four people were shot to death and at least 31 others wounded.

Of the fatalities, three were the result of an early Sunday morning argument in the Chatham neighborhood on the South Side.

The night before, a man was shot to death in Humboldt Park on the Northwest Side.

Also of note was the Pride Parade. Sunday afternoon, in the Lakeview neighborhood on the North Side, the annual Pride Parade took place. But the party continued into early morning where the police said a "mass arrest" occurred. Details are still trickling in, but it appears what happened was a riot.

Next month, the Democrat National Convention comes to Chicago.

Just saying.
