Maryland held its primary elections this week and one of the contests that was being watched closely was the race for the Baltimore State’s Attorney’s office currently held by Marilyn Mosby. Because of state election laws, the mail-in ballots couldn’t be counted until Thursday and the race was close enough that a winner wasn’t declared until last night. Those results, while close, appeared to suggest one surprising message from the voters. There is apparently a limit to the amount of corruption that Democrats will tolerate from one of their own even in a city as bright blue as Baltimore. The embattled Mosby lost to Ivan Bates,
Artur Pawlowski, a Canadian pastor who was arrested and jailed for holding a church service during a COVID lockdown, has had a resounding victory in court, setting aside the charges against him and reimbursing all fines.
Pawlowski is the minister of Calgary Street Church. He was reportedly harassed and arrested by Calgary police in the middle of a highway on May 9, 2021, as he was driving home from church. His congregants had gathered without masks for the service and it was deemed to be in violation of public health orders.
PJ Media’s stories about Antifa’s kids’ summer camp designed to mold the next generation of rioters, monkey-wrenchers, and “social justice” warriors, are now being echoed by some of the nation’s biggest media outlets, and something interesting is happening. Portland’s Leftist screechers are suddenly going quiet.
Antifa’s Budding Roses summer camp for kids took down its Facebook page featuring photos, artwork, and curricula from camps in previous years as independent journalist Andy Ngo noted after stories like ours called them out. The group’s seldom used Instagram page is still up, however.

Parents in the Fight Against Sexual Grooming

I’ve been asking for what I call “normie gays” to organize and join parents in fighting off the cult-like grooming of our kids in their schools at the hands of insane teachers intent on grooming kids into the transgender cult that will medicalize them and destroy their bodies and minds. Maybe it was just in the air or maybe my call worked, but Jaimee Mitchell started a group called Gays Against Groomers and it took off on Twitter and Instagram in no time. Gays Against Groomers

Dear woke activists,
Stop using our community to shield groomers and pedophiles.
Attention school shoppers, there is another brand you may want to avoid while getting supplies for your kids this fall.
On Saturday, Crayola posted images of what appears to be a man in a wheelchair wearing a chain-link bra over his clothing to virtue signal about diversity.
The person in the post, Julian Gavino, is apparently transgender and uses he/him pronouns.
“Julian Gavino, aka The Disabled Hippie Life Coaching, (he/him) is a fashion model, writer, and activist who identifies as a transgender man. He was born with a progressive neurological condition. Julian is passionate about advocating for his respective communities,” Crayola wrote in the post.
A Michigan public school employee who mocked anti-groomer parents during a school board meeting last year, has been arrested for allegedly trying to meet with minors for sex.
Eric Rohman, 41, and two other men were arrested last Thursday and Friday as part of a sting operation targeting pedophiles that was orchestrated by the Isabella County Sheriff’s Office.
According to police, the three communicated with potential victims on social media, while posing as children.
“All three were arrested for using a computer to commit a crime and accosting a minor for immoral purposes. Police allege that the three communicated over various social media apps with decoys posing as children.
A Portland State University student filed a bias complaint against the campus police department for mentioning the race of a potentially dangerous individual on the loose.
“The email uses problematic language to identify the suspect,” the student complained in the report filed with administrators. The student added the language “puts a target on so many campus community member’s [sic] backs.”
Writing that other such warning emails have had similar references to race, the student asked the police department to “reconsider the language used in these emails.”
Abortion is not mentioned in the Constitution. (snip) Paulina Guerrero was an expert witness picked by Democrats for Tuesday's hearing on abortion rights on the Hill. The woman appears to be a witch and a furry. No, I'm not kidding (via Libs of Tik Tok): (snip) Democrats were allowed four witnesses and one of their totally sane choices was Paulina Guerrero.
When Paulina isn’t working as a National Program Manager at an abortion clinic, she spends her free time making YouTube videos conducting witch spells and engaging in furry play. Maybe the Democrats wanted their expert witness to cast a spell to bring back the federal right to abortion.
A federal judge on Wednesday overruled a Maine school district that banned a parent from school property after he exposed library books promoting transgenderism and pornography.
The U.S. District Court for Maine issued a temporary restraining order allowing Shawn McBreairty back on school property after the father filed a lawsuit claiming the ban violated his constitutional rights. The court ruled that the First Amendment protects McBreairty's comments at board meetings, where he has spoken out against sexualized school library books. The court also determined that the school board selectively applied its speech policy, which prohibits "vulgarity," against McBreairty.
Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon, whose own deputies sued him for permission to charge repeat offenders to the fullest extent of the law, has pulled out all the stops in his California Supreme Court appeal against them, retaining one of the nation’s top lawyers. (snip) "It’s unfortunate that Gascon is spending so much time and money litigating against his own front-line prosecutors and challenging California’s Three Strikes law, which is well-established and supported by the majority of California voters," he said. "Especially as he faces a likely recall."
The National Women’s History Museum (NWHM) website’s biography section now prominently features three biological males who live and dress as females.
The three featured biographies of this month are of trans rights activists Cecilia Chung and Andrea Jenkins, as well as President Joe Biden’s Assistant Secretary of Health Rachel Levine. (snip)
The museum’s decision to feature biological males to celebrate women who are “historical pioneers” and “contemporary newsmakers that continue to impact the world,” was met with ridicule on social media.

Court Is at Risk When It Strays From Public Opinion 51 replies
Welp, here we go again — with more ignorance of the role of the United States Supreme Court in the aftermath of the Roe overturn. Only this time, the idiocy comes from within SCOTUS, courtesy of Elena Kagan, who on Thursday claimed the legitimacy of the Court is tied to its conformity with public opinion.
Roll that over in your mind a couple of times.
Silly me. All this time, I thought the Supreme Court’s role was that of final arbiter of the law, thus ensuring the American people with the promise of equal justice under the law and, thereby, as guardian of the Constitution
Donald Trump has plans to purge the so-called 'deep state' beyond what any president has done before if he runs for and wins the presidency in 2024 and as many as 50,000 government workers could find themselves on the chopping block. The former president, if elected again, would move in with a plan being drawn up now to 'drain the swamp' and cut tens of thousands of civil servants from what are typically apolitical roles, according to an Axios report.(Snip)The Trump official who came up with the Schedule F order said it could apply to as many as 50,000 of the some-two million federal workers.
Representative Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) said Friday on CNN’s “Newsroom” that the children of Republicans who supported former President Donald Trump will be ashamed.
Kinzinger said, “I’ve had a lot of anecdotal people call and say like a good friend said my dad was a super MAGA, he hated Adam and loved Donald Trump. He’s all in against Donald Trump because he believes he’s been lied to. But look, yeah, there may be a certain set of voters that will never pay attention. Their kids will.” He added, “I’m going to tell you, I truly believe in my heart in five years, maybe not five but definitely
NYC Mayor Eric Adams mooted housing 3,000 illegal immigrants who've overwhelmed homeless shelters in hotels - and said he wants taxpayer cash from Joe Biden to do so.
During a press conference on Thursday, Adams told a room of reporters that in order to house those who cross the border illegally: 'If we have to get hotel rooms, we get hotel rooms.'
Adams also said 'our team has been in constant contact with the White House' and added that he wants the federal government to release funds in order 'to deal with this unprecedented surge' of migrants.

The Biden administration and local leaders are walking a fine line as they play catchup with the surging monkeypox, scrambling to get vaccines and tests to an LBGTQ community that is losing patience while combatting the idea this is a sexually transmitted disease for gay men.(Snip)“We, at the Los Angeles LGBT Center, are fearful that the government’s history of not taking the necessary action to protect the LGBT community when facing a public health threat is repeating itself with the current monkeypox response,” Joe Hollendoner, CEO of the center, said recently in an open letter to Rochelle Walensky, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

A Pennsylvania Democrat facing one of the toughest races in the midterm elections said she "might have to school" rural Trump voters in order to win their support.
Rep. Susan Wild, D-Pa., is running for reelection in Pennsylvania's redrawn 7th congressional district, which now includes Republican-friendly Carbon County. During a virtual meet & greet on Monday, Wild said the Republican voters of Carbon County may need to be educated on the error of their ways.
"Carbon County has many attributes, but it is a county that – although it was once an Obama county – it since has become a Trump county," she said.

retention efforts; rely more on reserves
as ranks shrink 32 replies
The Army will shift about $1 billion to recruiting programs and will rely more heavily on reserve units as its ranks dwindle and the service struggles to attract new soldiers, Army officials said in a memo this week that described a high-stakes “war for talent” that confronts America’s armed forces and comes at a crucial moment for national security. Faced with demographic shifts and a red-hot civilian job market, Army officials said the number of active-duty soldiers is expected to drop considerably over the next several years.(Snip)Recruitment officials for the Air Force, Navy and Marines say they are facing similar challenges.

The New York Times published a series of op-eds by its opinion columnists Thursday that began with the phrase "I Was Wrong About." As part of the collection, Bret Stephens admitted he was wrong to label Trump supporters "appalling."
Stephens said, "The worst line I ever wrote as a pundit" was the first he ever wrote about Trump: "If by now you don’t find Donald Trump appalling, you’re appalling."
"This opening salvo, from August 2015, was the first in what would become dozens of columns denouncing Trump as a unique threat to American life, democratic ideals and the world itself," he continued. Stephens said he "regret[s] almost nothing
An entire North Carolina police force has quit in protest at the town’s newly hired “progressively responsible” town manager — who the police chief said created a “hostile work environment.”
Kenly Police Chief Josh Gibson made the shocking announcement in a Facebook post on Thursday, saying the assistant town manager and a key clerk had joined him and his five officers in quitting in protest.
“I have put in my 2 weeks notice along with the whole police dept.,” he wrote of the force he has served with for 21 years. “The new manager has created an environment I do not feel we can perform our duties and services to the community
The chief of the World Health Organization said the expanding monkeypox outbreak in more than 70 countries is an “extraordinary” situation that now qualifies as a global emergency, a declaration Saturday that could spur further investment in treating the once-rare disease and worsen the scramble for scarce vaccines.
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus made the decision to issue the declaration despite a lack of consensus among experts serving on the U.N. health agency’s emergency committee. It was the first time the chief of the U.N. health agency has taken such an action.
“We have an outbreak that has spread around the world rapidly through new modes of transmission
The Biden administration on Friday announced a new $270 million security assistance package for Ukraine, which includes High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems and 36,000 rounds of ammunition.
John Kirby, the White House’s national security spokesperson, said the aid is the 16th drawdown of equipment under President Biden’s drawdown authority, which allows him to send allies weapons from the Pentagon’s stockpile. It is the second security assistance package Mr. Biden has approved this month. In early July, the administration announced a $400 million security aid package for Ukraine. Mr. Kirby said the U.S. will continue to aid Ukraine as it fights to fend off Russian invaders. “We will have more packages
