In the latest example of corporate stupidity, three sporting goods employees were fired for chasing a man who stole a pistol. Apparently, trying to stop someone from stealing a deadly weapon is against company policy.

An armed attacker opened fire inside a rural Iowa high school on the first day back from winter break Thursday morning, shooting “multiple” people before reportedly turning the gun on themself.
The principal of Perry High School, 40 miles northwest of Des Moines, was reportedly among what police said were “multiple gunshot victims” as the mass shooting unfolded at 7:47 a.m.
The rampage came before the opening bell when “very few students and faculty” were in the building “which contributed to a good outcome in that sense,” Dallas County Sheriff Adam Infante said at a press conference later in the morning.
We are about to embark on what might be one of the wildest years in the history of American politics, and it may end up merely a prelude.
If 2024 is set to be tumultuous and unpredictable, just wait until 2025 if Donald Trump wins the presidency again this year.
His adversaries don’t have a history of accepting his victories with equanimity.
Trump’s unexpected victory in 2016 launched conspiracy theories about how Russia had helped him win; catalyzed a years-long law enforcement investigation into him and his campaign based on those theories; and set off protests in the streets.
All that was mild, given what may yet be in the offing.

Michelle Sutton, along with two other unidentified workers at the Academy Sports + Outdoors in Metairie, Louisiana, said that the shoplifting incident happened Dec. 16.
Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows unilaterally ruled that former President Donald Trump is unqualified to appear on the 2024 primary ballot despite lacking a law degree and substituting YouTube videos for due process.
Bellows, who previously worked as Executive Director of the Maine Chapter of the ACLU but is not an attorney and did not attend law school, made the legal conclusion in her ruling that “the declaration on [Trump’s] candidate consent form is false because he is not qualified to hold the office of the President under Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment.”
Firefighters in Alabama reportedly gushed out more than 36,000 gallons of water trying to extinguish a flaming Tesla Christmas night.
The Pine Level Fire Department in Autauga County, Alabama, was dispatched to a traffic crash at 11:14 p.m. on Dec. 25, according to a post on Facebook. When the first engine arrived on scene, firefighters found a Tesla Model Y on fire. Law enforcement shut down Interstate 65 while firefighters battled the blaze.
“It was determined the driver of the vehicle was uninjured and had escaped the vehicle before the fire department arrived,” the department stated.
Delta Air Lines employee followed through on his threat by calling police on transgender influencer and actress Tommy Dorfman. This comes after a tense confrontation that resulted from Dorfman’s allegations of being ‘misgendered’ by airline staff.
A video going viral Tuesday shows a hard-working Delta employee named “Tristan,” putting a transgender actor in his place just three days before Christmas.
Tommy Dorfman, a biological male who identifies as female and uses she/her pronouns, posted a TikTok video showing himself at LaGuardia Airport on December 22. He was waiting to board a flight to his hometown of Atlanta, presumably to celebrate the holidays with his family.
I have to think that whoever is behind the anti-Israel actions must be trying to pick the worst possible places to target on purpose, because they keep doing things that are guaranteed to tick off people and drive away people from their "cause."
They've crashed the Christmas tree lighting, saying they want to "cancel Christmas." They've terrorized little kids in line to see Santa Claus. They've attacked the NYPD and desecrated a nativity scene. They've blocked highways, keeping little kids on two school buses blocked for more than an hour.

I'd like to say I'm surprised, but I'm not surprised at all, and you won't be either. The transgender individual who tried to accuse a Delta Airlines employee of "misgendering" him in a now-viral video has been identified as trans activist and "influencer" Tommy Dorfman. The absurdity doesn't stop there either.
As RedState reported, the previously unidentified man confronted a Delta Airlines gate agent, claiming he had been purposely "misgendered" multiple times. After a brief back and forth between the two, the gate agent threatened to have him escorted out of the building with a "make my day" style threat about it being three days before Christmas. Dorfman quickly backed down,
A lawsuit launched by Dutch truckers may derail far-left London Mayor Sadiq Khan’s green tax on drivers, arguing that thousands of fines levied on drivers to supposedly save the environment were unlawful.
In the first major challenge against Sadiq Khan’s green agenda, Transport in Nood BV, a firm that represents dozens of Dutch trucking companies, has applied for judicial review against Transport for London (TFL) at Britain’s High Court. /snip/ They will also argue that the Khan administration has illegally imposed climate tax fines on them in euros rather than British pounds, which UK law mandates.
A Muslim mob of pro-Palestinian militants terrorized shoppers on Christmas Eve in the small city of Collierville, Tennessee.
“You should be ashamed!” the Muslim militants shouted at shoppers as others repeatedly honked their car horns.
One KWAM listener said the Muslim militants “clogged the streets to prevent shopper ingress/egress and unleashed individual terrorists out to run up and down the sidewalks with Palestinian flags.”
As a Collierville citizen, I strongly believe and support the First and Second Amendment rights of every American citizen,” conservative leader Justin Johnson told KWAM. “Protests should not be intrusive and dangerous to drivers, shoppers or the protestors.”
The city of Huntington Beach, California, one of the last conservative strongholds in the deep-blue state, has voted to cancel all of the separate month-long celebrations for various identity groups in favor of a celebration of the common history of the town.
The Orange County Register reported last week:
Huntington Beach leadership is ending the city’s current heritage and identity commemorations, such as Women’s History Month, and in their place will create celebrations focused more on the community’s history.
When it comes to the COVID-19 hysteria, it appears most people have moved on. But others can’t seem to let the pandemic go. Washington Post media activist Taylor Lorenz is one of the latter. Since it became clear that the coronavirus was no longer a threat, she has been insisting that the rest of the nation should still go through mask and vaccine mandates and take precautions to keep people like her safe. The alleged reporter has even taken to portraying herself as “disabled” because she supposedly is still vulnerable to the virus. On Saturday, she replied to a user on Threads

Let me make it clear from the beginning that I think Nikki Haley (R-Boeing) is a vapid establishment automaton who is basically the Kamala Harris of the Republican Party, a Bushesque mediocrity who represents a dying ideology that peaked in 2005, and good riddance to it. She’s the worst – self-righteous, annoying, always spewing grrrl-power nonsense and hack clichés salvaged from the back catalog of the Weekly Standard. She’s a disaster on every level, one of those people who is both very aggressive and always wrong, the worst possible combination. That being said, should he win the nomination, Nikki! should absolutely be Donald Trump’s vice presidential pick

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R), now running in the Republican presidential primary, previously said Americans should not describe illegal aliens “as criminals,” suggesting that doing so is “disrespectful.”
In July 2015, a month after then-GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump announced his candidacy with a speech centered on stemming illegal immigration, Haley joined a panel with the Aspen Institute moderated by then-CEO Walter Isaacson.

WASHINGTON – Former President Donald Trump unconstitutionally profited from the presidency during his tenure in the White House, reaping millions of dollars for his business empire from foreign governments, House Democrats allege in an extensive report.
Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a 156-page report Thursday morning accusing Trump of exploiting the presidency to financially benefit himself and members of his family. Trump’s businesses, according to the report, received at least $7.8 million from corrupt and authoritarian governments including China, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. The report is the culmination of a nearly seven-year investigation. It says records and documents obtained by House Oversight Democrats reveal "a stunning web
LAS VEGAS — Channel 13 has obtained video of a Clark County District Court judge being violently attacked by a man during a hearing on Wednesday morning. The man involved in the attack is Delone Redden, who was being sentenced for aggravated battery with substantial bodily harm prior to the attack on Judge Mary Kay Holthus. He entered a guilty plea in a previous hearing. The video shows Judge Holthus denying Redden's request for probation due to his criminal history and preparing to sentence him to jail time. Redden can be seen then leaping over the judge's bench to tackle her.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams on Thursday announced a lawsuit against more than a dozen charter bus and transportation companies involved in busing migrants to New York City, seeking hundreds of millions of dollars for the care of migrants in the self-described "sanctuary" city.
"New York City has and will always do our part to manage this humanitarian crisis, but we cannot bear the costs of reckless political ploys from the state of Texas alone," Adams said in a statement . "Today, we are taking legal action against 17 companies that have taken part in Texas Governor Abbott’s scheme to transport tens of thousands of migrants

As the decisions disqualifying former President Donald Trump from the 2024 election work their way through the courts, a new filing in Pennsylvania seeks the same “ballot cleansing” by barring Rep. Scott Perry.
It’s only the latest effort targeting congressional candidates as Democrats seek to bar opponents as “insurrectionists” for questioning the election of President Biden.
We have become a nation of Madame Defarges — eagerly knitting names of those to be subject to arbitrary justice.
Former congressional candidate Gene Stilp, who’s made headlines by burning MAGA flags with swastikas outside courthouses, filed the challenge.
Using the 14th Amendment to disqualify candidates like Perry is consistent with Stilp’s signature flag-burning stunts.
On Wednesday, Judge Loretta Preska confirmed the release of the initial names from Jeffrey Epstein’s extensive client list, comprising over 150 individuals. Concurrently, a collection of previously sealed documents was made public.
Following the release, the Court Listener website experienced a crash due to the overwhelming public interest. However, The Gateway Pundit managed to secure a backup of this crucial information.
Three individuals, known in the court documents as Doe 105, Doe 107, and Doe 110, have made appeals. Documents related to Does 105, 107, and 110-110 are being withheld.

We've seen a lot of anti-Israel freakouts at this point. I think it's safe to say these activists live in their own world, one that doesn't have a lot to do with reality. They think that everyone should bend the knee to them and accede to all their demands however unworkable or bad those demands might be. If they scream loud enough, they think they can succeed by bullying people.
We've seen things from the crazy or concerning to the dangerous.
But I have to say, this new video I just saw is pretty funny. Think anti-Israel Karen, and then you get where this video is going.
Just as President Joe Biden starts showering hundreds of billions more of taxpayers’ money to “electrify” the nation’s fleet of automobiles, the bottom is falling out of the EV market.
The latest indication is the sharp drop in prices for used EVs.
A report from iSeeCars.com, a search engine for auto buyers, found that the average price for all cars declined 5% in 2023 compared with 2022.
But the resale price EVs plunged 33%. While a used EV sold for an average of $52,821 in 2022, it went for less than $35,000 in 2023,

A mob of over 100 looters fresh off a street takeover smashed a Kia Soul through the door of a 48-year-old Compton bakery around 3 a.m. Tuesday and proceeded to rob just about anything they could get their hands on and vandalize the place.
Street takeovers have become a serious problem in recent years in Los Angeles County, which Compton is a part of. At least six people died during or near street takeovers in 2022.
The Kia had been involved in a pursuit earlier in the day.
The mob, which mostly seemed to consist of young people, showed zero concern for the owners of the bakery
