Shaun King's social justice PAC is going to the dogs. Literally. Grassroots Law PAC, which the progressive grifter founded to elect soft-on-crime local officials, paid roughly $40,000 since December to the California-based Potrero Performance Dogs, according to campaign finance disclosures. The payments are labeled for "contractor services," making their purpose difficult to discern. But days after a $30,650 payment in February, King welcomed a "new member of the King family": an award-winning mastiff bred by Potrero named Marz.

Is that a Cane Corso? They are powerful dogs and need lots of training and time. But Talcum X spends all his time complaining and raising money that he wastes on fancy dogs.

More corruption by a Democrat and we are supposed to be surprised. Come on, now. This is Democrat street cred. He, Shaun King, is just following the Big Guy's grifting policies.

Just think of the number of equity trees that $40,000 could have bought for the inner city.

He could have bought a piece of a nice home in Florida for that amount of money. I haven't shopped for dogs recently, but isn't that a bit much for a family dog? Of course, when it is OPM, price doesn't matter.

Dogs aren't a breed of horses. They are purebred, not thoroughbred.

Hey, come on. He's a dog person. That means he's not all bad. But $40K on a dog? Now spending $40K once you got the dog, I can buy. But $40K for the dog? Well, I guess when it's OPM (Other People's Money), who cares? I remember when my sister, many years ago, asked my dad for $50 to buy a purebred cocker spaniel puppy. My dad said "$50 bucks for a dog? I can buy you a lot of dogs for $50." Of course, he gave her the money (this was 1972 or so by the way). And he loved that dog. Sadly, it got sick and died a couple years later. Although he was a pistol. He'd go next door to the big ol' Alaskan Malumute, walk up to him while he was eating, growl at him, watch the big dog scamper away and start eating the big dog's food. And he also fell in love with the mutt we got after that one.

Read this headline to the Lady Chihuahua.. One does not pay $40000 for a show dog. For a handler and advertising, yes. The article says the people they purchased the dog from showed the dog at a dog show, and it won Best in Show. This dog is not a pet. It's a show dog. There is no such thing as a thoroughbred show dog. Perhaps the author meant purebred? Perhaps the author was thinking of horses?

Just a question. Is Mr. King white or black? The reason I'm asking, is he a white honcho in Black Lives Matter? I've noticed over the past few years, partakers of violence are mostly white. Description may not fit. Color either. As for the pooch. Humongous. Interesting breed. Can be a bit testy. 40K for a dog? Wow. Not a care in the world. Probably has to have a huge van to haul him around. Leaves huge piles of fertilizer in his kennel/yard. To supporters of BLM. Do you like or care about your time, dedication to BLM, and money being spent on a 40K dog? Oh. It's okay by you.

During Wednesday's episode of "The View," co-host Whoopi Goldberg debated with pro-life guest and former "View" co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck on what it means to be pro-life. During the segment, Goldberg made arguments suggesting that God is fine with abortion. (snip) The host and famous actress seemed to invoke God to justify women choosing abortion, countering Hasselbeck’s pro-life points by saying that God gave women "freedom of choice." Goldberg also argued that Jesus Christ's teaching of, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you," obliged her to not speak out against abortion lest she risk judging others.

A San Francisco, California, law that allowed illegal aliens and other foreign nationals to vote in some local elections was struck down in court late last week. On July 29, San Francisco Superior Court Judge Richard Ulmer overturned the city’s ordinance that was first passed in 2016, which allowed foreign nationals — including illegal aliens — to vote in citywide school board elections so long as they are the parent of a school-aged child and are not incarcerated or out on parole.

Controversial activist Shaun King tried Tuesday to justify his reported $40,000 purchase of a hulking guard dog as protection from “white supremacists” — but failed to explain why his progressive political action committee picked up the tab. In a rambling Instagram post, King also railed against strict gun control laws in New York and New Jersey, insisting they kept him from arming himself to protect his wife and kids from death threats purportedly made by “police, military snipers and white supremacist groups.”

D.C. Attorney General Karl A.

Casa Ruby reportedly wasn’t paying rent on properties it had leased for shelters and housing programs and was failing to pay employees while its founder, Ruby Corado, was earning a $260,000 salary and withdrawing tens of thousands of dollars from the non-profit’s accounts, according to The Washington Post. Corado, who claims to be in El Salvador and denies any wrongdoing, stepped down in the fall of 2021 but maintains sole control over the organization’s bank accounts.

On Monday, September 18, 1995, the New York Times wrote an article that claimed: "This, say the scientists, would inundate parts of many heavily populated river deltas and the cities on them, making them uninhabitable, and would destroy many beaches around the world. At the most likely rate of rise, some experts say, most of the beaches on the East Coast of the United States would be gone in 25 years. They are already disappearing at an average of 2 to 3 feet a year." Now twenty-seven years later, the beaches are still here.

The estimated cost is being passed on to Americans causing the price of goods and services to increase 4.5 times more than what they had been paying at the end of 2020. The cost of exporting goods has also skyrocketed. (Tweet)

The hellfire missiles that are said to have taken out Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, but not his family, are a newer generation of missiles that are high on precision and devoid of explosives. The AGM 14 R9X missile, made by Lockheed Martin, can be fired from, in Zawahiri’s case, a Reaper drone as well as other platforms. It can be fired from 600 miles away. Because its payload is tungsten and not packed explosives, this version of the hellfire doesn’t have the accompanying explosion– unless it hits, for instance, a full gas tank in a car. The R9X is called a Ninja because of the six blades deployed during flight

You really have to wonder who ran against some of these morons in political office sometimes. Honestly, was the alternative to someone like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez being forced to step on a rusty nail? Was Eric Swalwell’s opponent a literal cannibal promising to consume children if elected? If you set out to elect some of the dumbest creatures to ever walk upright on the planet, you couldn’t do much better than what Democrats currently have serving in Congress and the White House. Why? There is no good answer, at least one that covers everyone. There are, after all, a lot of really dumb Democrats in office.

That is the only allegiance of the American Enterprise Institute. After his initiation he joined the ranks of the manipulative DeceptiCons in the senate led by Mitch McConnell.

There will be no second term for Showtime’s The First Lady, which starred Viola Davis as Michelle Obama. The dramatic anthology series has been canceled after just one season following ridicule from viewers and widespread negative reviews. The series also failed to pick up any major Emmy Award nominations, though it did receive a few nods in technical categories. Showtime confirmed the cancellation in a statement sent to multiple outlets on Monday, saying the show “will not be moving forward with another season.” The First Lady focused the wives of the presidents, with the plan to cover three administrations per season.

Results are still pending in Arizona’s Republican gubernatorial primary, though former Fox 10 Phoenix anchor Kari Lake leads her opponent Karrin Taylor Robson. It is unclear when a winner could be declared. Lake, backed by former President Donald J. Trump, holds a more than 11,300 vote lead over Robson with 80 percent reporting, the Associated Press election results compiled by the New York Times show. Lake has 294,260 votes versus Robson’s 282,936. In a tweet, Dave Wasserman of the Cook Report suggested Lake will come away with the nomination, though only one county is reporting more than 95 percent of its votes.
