- Jack Smith says, “That’s why I was appointed, too.”
- “But none of these laws really apply…” says Liz Cheney.
- “Yeah, what do we do now? I’ve already missed him twice,” adds Adam Schiff.
- “But Trump,” says Liz Cheney.
- “Great,” says Bennie Thompson, “Why didn’t you just say that in the first place?”

"Vice President Kamala Harris was showered with boos while attending an NCAA Tournament game Thursday. Her alma mater Howard University was blown out in a first-round game of March Madness.
- After the loss, Harris met with the team in their locker room and delivered a cringe-inducing speech as if they were first-graders. Watch below.
“So good,” she said in a sing-song voice. “You guys are so good. You played hard. You played to the very last second. You made all of us Bison so, so proud. You hustled out there. You are smart. You are disciplined. You put everything you had into the game. And that’s what it’s about right? Until the last minute. You guys did that.”
Harris said she was inspired by their loss.
“You keep playing with chin up and shoulders back because you showed the world who Bison are. Right? Literally, what you have done is in historic proportion.”

Uh oh, now they are going to think I am a bad person...
- The ruling caste is soft and weak, yet it still holds tremendous power solely because we let it do so. Somewhere along the way brute force got replaced by sissy shaming as the main mode of oppression.
- We need to stop allowing this – we need to give these nerds a figurative wedgie...

“Please God, I can’t do this anymore. Let’s end it.”
"...But what few know is what Major Brian Shul (USAF, Ret.) endured before qualifying to fly the fastest reconnaissance jet in history. He almost burned to death after his T-28 Trojan was shot down over Vietnam in 1973 — his 211th combat mission, this one providing close air support for the CIA’s Air America operations. He expected to die that day on enemy ground, recalling: “[I was] completely blind, as my helmet visor had melted. I did everything by feel.” But miraculously, a day after he was downed, Air Force Special Operations Command Pararescue teams located him for rescue and then air-evacuated him first to Thailand and then to Okinawa.
Shul says today: “Don’t confuse me with anyone famous, important, or heroic. What I am is the luckiest man you’ll ever see.”
After hanging on for two months, nobody expecting him to survive, he was transferred to the Institute of Surgical Research at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, where he underwent 15 major operations over the next year. At one point enduring agonizing and constant pain, he recalls wanting to give up: “I quit, and I wanted to die. Please God, I can’t do this anymore. Let’s end it.”...

They were led by Tirien Steinbach, the school’s associate dean of diversity, equity, and inclusion, who arrived on the scene when Duncan asked for an administrator to restore order.
She didn’t restore order, of course, and even went on to join the unruly students...
Steinbach then took over: “Your opinions from the bench land as absolute disenfranchisement” of the students’ rights, she said, accusing him of “tearing the fabric of this community.”...

Vice belatedly joins liberal media in denouncing 'Tradwife' trend in which young women embrace monogamy, motherhood, and homemaking - TheBlaze:
Although leftists now strain to define what a woman is, they nevertheless appear confident detailing what behaviors biological females with two X chromosomes should avoid in this day and age.
Among the lifestyles dogmatists in the liberal media have determined is unacceptable is that of the homemaker or "traditional wife" — she who regards monogamy, motherhood, and homemaking as personally enriching and civilization-stabilizing goods, not backward constrictions of a bygone era.

These were some of the more than 100 recommendations made by a city-appointed reparations committee tasked with the thorny question of how to atone for centuries of slavery and systemic racism...
About Those ‘Safe’ Silicon Valley Bank Treasurys
About Those ‘Safe’ Silicon Valley Bank Treasurys - By The Editorial Board
- Any asset can blow up a bank if monetary policy is bad enough
"...SVB held boring Treasurys and highly rated mortgage-backed securities in large quantities.
- How could these supposedly safe assets go wrong?
For at least 15 years the Fed and other central banks have downplayed this risk—through their regulatory policies and their loquacious forward guidance concerning monetary policy.
Their promises to suppress interest rates to abnormally low levels for extended periods encouraged banks and others to believe sovereign bonds would hold their market value.
