Just finished watching The Guns of Navarone last night. He had a good role in that one. Very non-woke.

And William Shatner who starred as T.J. Hooker still soldiers on at 93 years old. He's outlived most of his Star Trek co-stars, writers and producer, and now he's outlived two of his T.J. Hooker co-stars, and one of his Boston Legal co-stars.

I just recently watched DS9 all the way through yet again. It is my favorite Trek. "It's Only a Paper Moon" is still one of my favorite episodes and James as Vic Fontaine was just wonderful. He had such a great voice and seemed a genuinely nice guy. Thanks for the memories Mr. Darren.

Bombshell congressional report on Trump
assassination attempt reveals 'who REALLY

A bombshell congressional report claims would-be Trump assassin Thomas Crooks was incapacitated by a local cop before he was killed by a Secret Service sniper. Two months after Crooks shot the former president's ear at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, a preliminary report from Rep. Clay Higgins offered a differing narrative to the official one pushed by the FBI. While it was initially claimed that Crooks was shot in the head within seconds by a Secret Service sniper, Higgins' report claimed it was actually a local SWAT operator who stopped the gunman's hail of bullets.

Could anyone have imagined twenty years ago or even in the darkest days of the Obama administration that Islamic terrorists would feel free to rampage across the streets of Manhattan waving terrorist flags? But here we are. No arrests. No FBI agents knocking on their doors. Despite formal condemnations and press releases, the Jihadists know that they have the backing of the Democrats, the Left, and the media. What else do they need? This is what they’re doing a week before 9/11. Can you imagine what they’ll do on 9/11?

A federal judge on Saturday blocked key portions of Ohio’s new law restricting lawful permanent residents, visa-holders and others from contributing to statewide ballot issue campaigns. The injunction came one day before the law was to take effect. U.S. District Judge Michael H. Watson, in a 53-page ruling, prohibited the state from pursuing civil or criminal liability for any alleged violations based on the definition of a “foreign national.” Ohio’s House Bill 1 passed earlier this year, incorporating what’s already federal law to the state level, prohibiting foreign citizens from contributing to political campaigns.

MAGA’s attacks on Vice President Kamala Harris’s stepdaughter, Ella Emhoff, stem from “unapologetic misogyny” and “toxic masculinity,” as well as a refusal to “admit to themselves that she’s cute,” according to a left-wing Salon piece that accuses Trump’s team of seeking to “win over the worst men in the nation by appealing directly to their controlling, misogynist desires.” The Tuesday essay, titled “MAGA attacks on Kamala Harris’ stepdaughter threaten to backfire on Donald Trump,” was penned by Salon senior politics writer Amanda Marcotte, who accused leading voices within the MAGA movement of “proving that they are weird” for their ongoing obsession with Kamala Harris’s stepdaughter.

Iran has “domination” over American interests in the region and can strike the U.S. in “less than half a day,” according to a senior Iranian Ayatollah who called for “blood vengeance” against the United States for numerous “American crimes,” following Hamas terrorist leader Ismail Haniyeh’s assassination in the heart of Tehran last week. In a sermon which aired on Iran’s Khorasan Razavi TV on Friday, Ayatollah Ahmad Alamolhoda declared in the shrine city of Mashhad, that Iran’s “blood vengeance” should extend beyond Israel to include the United States. “We have to apply this blood vengeance against the United States as well,” he declared.

A Canadian farmer who wants to build a house on his land is being forced to pay $400,000 for a government-mandated archeological dig on his property - and could face jail time if he does not comply. Bruce Cassel, 75, was required to get an archeological assessment of his Ontario farmland when he decided to build a dream retirement home for him and his wife more than four years ago. During the dig, archeologists discovered bits of stone identified as Indigenous artifacts. Now the owner could face massive fines or even jail time unless he pays to complete the final stages of the assessment, which he said totaled $400,000, National Post reported.

Canada’s colonists celebrated the weekend in the traditional fashion by calling for the murder of non-Muslims in Toronto and Montreal. [SNIP] These are entirely explicit calls for Islamic terrorism and violence, with no government response. Had they been truckers protesting pandemic lockdowns and vaccine mandates, there would have been outrage and action. Trudeau would have declared a State of Emergency and had their bank accounts frozen. But much as in the UK, there are two sets of rules and as progressives in good standing, Islamic Jihadists get a pass unless they actually start doing things.

After having written three articles today, I figured it was time for a bit of farcical comedy, brought to you by none other than MSNBC's race-hustler extraordinaire, Al Sharpton — with a more-than-able assist from the clownish network's other race-hustler extraordinaire, Joy Reid. At issue for the Reverend was why some (white) people still support Donald Trump. Before we begin, understand that these two geniuses are among the cream of the crop in the race-hustling industry. Reid got the racist ball rolling by ragging on Lara Trump over her latest music video. I love people who have a dream. I am not knocking her having a dream.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is warning voters in the battleground state of North Carolina that they could lose jobs if Republicans weaken a signature Biden administration law that encourages investments in manufacturing and clean energy. Yellen says that Republican-dominated states like North Carolina are greatly benefiting from tax incentives under the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act and that eliminating them would be a “historic mistake,” according to a draft of a speech she will give Thursday at a community college in Raleigh. The Treasury Department released the remarks ahead of the address.

In a recent and now widely seen Tucker Carlson interview, a guest historian named Darryl Cooper casually presented a surprising number of flawed theories about World War II. He focused his misstatements on the respective roles of Winston Churchill’s Britain and Adolf Hitler’s Germany—especially in matters of the treatment and fate of Russian prisoners, the Holocaust, the systematic slaughtering of Jews, strategic bombing, and the nature of Winston Churchill. Because of the size of the audience Carlson introduced him to, and because of the gravity of Cooper’s falsehoods, his assertions deserve a response.

For all their pious claims to being the standard-bearers and guardians of national security since President Trump was elected in 2016, Democrats sure do have a lot of operatives getting picked up as spies for China. The latest came out of the woodwork from New York Gov. Kathy Hochul's office. According to the Associated Press: A former New York state government official who worked for former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and current Gov. Kathy Hochul was charged Tuesday with acting as an undisclosed agent of the Chinese government, federal prosecutors revealed in a sprawling indictment.
