In yet another example of how crazy this news week has been, we learned Tuesday that Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) and her companion were confronted by ushers and escorted out of a Denver theater Sunday over multiple complaints that they were taking photos, vaping and “causing a disturbance” during a "Beetlejuice" show. To quickly recap, according to reports, Boebert allegedly refused to leave at first and told theater employees when they threatened to involve the Denver PD to go and get them. An incident report noted that Boebert also allegedly tried a power play on the ushers after she and the unidentified man left their seats

There are a fair number of halucigenics that could be introduced by a third party through food or drink to create such a situation. CIA has always been good at this. Is her behavior typical? Is she known to act like this? Or is this behavior atypical.

"Do you know who I am!" - If I lived in her district, she just lost my vote. Given the liberal bent of the MSM, Republicans need to be smarter than this.

How you treat "the little people" really does matter to the Republican side. Having said that, the incident is hardly Chappaquiddick. Her lame arse apology made her look a groveling fool and shoulda used 4 words, "I am so sorry." Period. Any apology longer than 4 words is an evasion. Then she shoulda sent the staff of the theater some kinda cool small gesture like flowers or fruit or whatever. Prolly still should.

Yeah #7 all the headlines had the word Democrat in them so yeah she was a Republican, geez. As far as this one goes, she has shown weakness. If she can’t keep her personal life in tact then stay the heck home, get drunk, jump and down on the bed, do whatever it take to relieve some stress but don’t give the media fuel. Very dumb move.

Having lived in that district in the past, Boebert just committed political suicide. She will be in a fierce election battle again in 2024, to defend the seat that she won by just 500 or so votes in 2022. It is too, too bad because she could have been a shining star on the conservative side in D.C. The "do you know who I am", narrative doesn't fly well. She will be gone come Nov. 2024. It is too bad.

In any situation, if you find yourself wanting to blurt out the words, "Do you know who I am?", immediately stop and reconsider your actions. You are almost always in the wrong. They ought to teach this at Little Politicians' School.

Drinking to excess, or possibly using the legal drugs in that state (where I am right now) can lead to doing foolish things in public. A great reason to never use drugs, and to be very careful about alcohol consumption.

#16, You know, people are always blaming alcoholic consumption for their bad behavior. Apparently, being drunk removes your inhibitions and impulse control, but does it remove your ability to think? I have found myself very, very drunk and few times in my life. and thought, "You are very, very drunk. Think real hard about everything you are doing." Can't say as I made the best choices after that, but I could never say, "I'm Drunk! I didn't know what I was doing!" Being drunk doesn't make you do stupid things; it just allows you to convince yourself you are not responsible for doing stupid things. They should do a study on this.

As Denver faces a budget crisis due to 40,000 illegal immigrants arriving in the last year, the city is warning hourly workers that they may be furloughed, while also considering hiring illegal immigrants to work for the city, The Daily Wire has learned. A spokeswoman for Denver mayor Mike Johnston told The Daily Wire that the budget crisis was caused by illegal immigrants being unable to work, causing them to be a drain on taxpayer dollars. The idea was to solve that by having them work directly for the city, she said. She said that a full-time salary funded by taxpayers was “not necessarily” more costly than social services.

Furious residents of Athens heckled their Democratic mayor after the brutal murder of Laken Riley on the University of George campus. Mayor Kelly Girtz was interrupted on Wednesday morning as he held a briefing to discuss public safety in Athens after the nursing student was allegedly beaten to death by undocumented migrant Jose Antonio Ibarra, 26. As he tried to deny that Athens is a sanctuary city for undocumented immigrants, the crowd started shouting at the mayor. A man in the crowd repeatedly shouted: 'You're a liar.' He added: 'You're the one who is guilty and got blood on your hands for this murder, sir!'

NEW YORK — Donald Trump’s lawyers asked a New York appellate court Wednesday to halt collection of the former president’s $454 million civil fraud judgment while he appeals. Trump’s lawyers said in a court filing that he is prepared to post a $100 million appeal bond rather than a bond covering the full amount, which would have automatically paused enforcement. They said a provision in Judge Arthur Engoron’s Feb. 16 ruling that bans Trump, his company, and co-defendants from obtaining loans from New York banks for three years would make it impossible for him to obtain a bond covering the full judgment.

Something is definitely amiss at the police department in Houston, Texas, and it's a problem that's been brewing since well before the border invasion began. Houston has one of the highest per capita crime rates of any city of any size in the country, but amazingly, that's not the entirety of the problem. The Houston Police Department is investigating crimes and bringing charges as they should be, though it's more difficult to keep up during the current era of soaring crime rates. But in the cases where they do manage to launch an investigation, roughly ten percent of those cases have been suspended without a resolution, with the department

The homicide rate in Venezuela has dropped like a rock. The numbers are shocking, actually, in how high they remain and how much they have fallen. More than a 25% drop in about a year, according to the Venezuela Violence Observatory. Suicides are up, though, which isn't such good news. The explanation for this sudden drop in the murder rate doesn't require a great deal of research.

New York Attorney General Letitia James, who ran for office vowing to take down former President Donald Trump, has been gloating on X about the $354.8 million fine imposed on him since she won against him in a county court two weeks ago. Trump is planning to appeal the judgment in the civil fraud case, which accused him of inflating his net worth to get favorable bank loans, which he paid back. However, Trump must first pay the $354.8 million fine ordered by Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Arthur Engoron before he can appeal. He is also being charged interest that is expected to reach $100 million. James has been posting

The parade of people who are openly discussing the physical and mental decline of the nation's oldest-ever president continues to grow. And those voices are not all coming from the Fox News Channel or other conservative outlets. This week their ranks were joined by two former aides to President Barack Obama who worked directly with Joe Biden when he was the veep. Appearing on the "Pod Save America" podcast, Jon Favreau, Obama's chief speechwriter, expressed concern and exasperation over Biden's recent appearances. Favreau called Biden's age "a very real issue." He referred to him as "frail" and "mumbly" while also referencing the way Biden "shuffles" around and is unsteady

Donald Trump handily defeated Nikki Haley in Michigan’s GOP primary on Tuesday, marking the former South Carolina governor’s sixth consecutive loss to the former president. By the time the Associated Press called the race at 9 p.m. eastern time, Trump had received 65 percent of the vote and Haley had garnered 30 percent. Only 2 percent of Michigan primary voters had cast “uncommitted” ballots. Just 16 of the state’s 55 Republican delegates will be awarded based on the result of the primary, while the rest will be allocated based on caucuses that will be held at a nominating convention on Saturday.

President Biden was projected to win the Michigan Democratic primary, according to Decision Desk HQ, scoring a critical win in the battleground state. Biden won Michigan back in 2020, but has seen recent pushback from progressives and Arab Americans in the state over his administration’s actions amid the Israel-Hamas war. An option on the ballot for voters to pick “uncommitted” had so far garnered more than 20,000 votes, far exceeding the relatively modest goal of 10,000 votes that the organizers of the campaign had set for themselves. The organizers of the “Listen to Michigan” campaign, backed by Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), urged voters to select the “uncommitted” option

WHITEWATER, Wis.—The migrants began to trickle into Whitewater, a sleepy town of 15,000 an hour west of Milwaukee, toward the end of 2021. Prior to their arrival, local news and political debates generally revolved around school fundraisers or the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater's D3 athletics. Today, residents are focused on their 1,000 new neighbors, who mostly hail from Nicaragua and Venezuela and largely keep to the shadows because they lack official identification. Locals say the real number of migrants in the town could easily be double the number reflected in the police department's official statistics.

If you had told the average person that an anarchist or an airman had set himself on fire to protest Israel’s campaign against Islamic terrorists, you would get two very different reactions. Unsurprisingly the media led with the data point most likely to produce a favorable reaction. And Aaron Bushnell cynically played the same game, wearing (the wrong) uniform to his Hamas suicide attempt rather than the Antifa red in which he had been previously photographed. The Washington Post gets around to admitting that Bushnell was an “anarchist”. [SNIP] But the Washington Post then misleadingly suggests he was raised in a Christian cult.

The Supreme Court will not throw Donald Trump off the ballot through some sort of deus ex MSNBCmachina, and Trump’s polls are improving while President Crusty’s are getting worse, so we face the real possibility of Donald Trump winning the presidency.

Well, the Democrats are facing it, and now they’re trying to figure out how to stop him from taking office if and when he wins the election. This is a really bad idea. But of course, the Democrat Party is the Party of Bad Ideas, and the Party of Nanny Fascism.
