Mimosa, Bloody Mary, nice flute of champagne — or maybe a favorite tipple in your coffee. Make yourself one and join me at our own Algonquin Round Table, the spirit of Dorothy Parker abides.
Happy Sunday, dears. The flutes are filled so please grab one and let’s lift them high. To all our Jewish family and friends, let me toast you with my heartfelt best wishes for this Rosh Hashanah and for the year 5784. Shanah tovah! Let’s get to it.

The Stasi are alive in well in the City of Angels where corporate entities, with the blessings of local woke politicians, are running a snitch line so people can report on their neighbors engaging in WrongThink.
LA vs Hate describes itself as a “community-centered creative campaign to encourage and support all residents of Los Angeles County to unite against, report, and resist hate.” The program relies on anonymous reporting online or through a tip line, 211 LA, and is not affiliated with law enforcement.
The organization operates under the authority of the County of Los Angeles Commission on Human Relations and enjoys backing from Kaiser Permanente, Blue Shield of California, and other nonprofits and corporate organizations. It also receives financial support from the American Rescue Plan and local governmental departments.
I’m shocked, SHOCKED, dears that LA vs Hate demurs when asked to define hate. The coy little vixens pepper their literature and press releases with all the fashionable buzzwords and phrases like intersectionality, racial justice and privilege, but please do not ask them to ever be specific. Better that you worry that Mrs. Grundy two houses over has her binoculars and a notepad at hand WATCHING YOU!

LGBTQ activists stormed Kevin McCarthy’s office at the Capitol today
Will they get the J/6 treatment (raids, pre-trial detentions, bank accounts shut down, 22 years in prison)?

The Left can’t meme and Obama’s minions in Creepy Joe’s administration have come up with such cringey stuff like embracing Dark Brandon and trying to produce a shine on that turd known as Bidenomics. Good luck, boyos. First up is the laughable Christiane Amanpour “interviewing” Hillary’s official cankle washer, Paul Krugman.
“The economic data have been just surreally good. Even optimists are just stunned,” says Nobel Prize-winning economist @paulkrugman. So why do polls show most Americans don’t think the economy is doing well? “There’s a really profound and peculiar disconnect going on.” pic.twitter.com/MNFhzZ2hh3

Surreally doesn’t mean what they think it means. But lying with fake or deliberately manipulated stats is just par for the course. While people who have spent more than a few years doing the weekly family shopping have been kicked in the gut by rising prices, Biden, et al, will tell them to be happy because the Big.Picture. is good.
Sure, dudes.
*US Includes fall for 3rd straight year because of inflation
*America’s poverty rate has soared
And you know how Creepy Joe and his handlers keep touting ostensible low unemployment? Just who is getting those jobs, eh?
Staggering figures have revealed that over 1.2million US-born workers lost their jobs last month while the foreign-born workforce increased by nearly 700,000 – as migrants continue to flood across the border under the Biden administration.
I wish I could write off the great replacement as a conspiracy theory, but my dears! So many conspiracy theories of yesterday have proven true! I’ve run out of them.
Heck with ordering Old Fashions, let’s uncork the bourbon and pass the shot glasses.

Consider this an “PS” to the one above. Note in this video that the open southern border is leading to a steady stream of young, single men that Biden is busing all over the nation. This is an invasion, not “migration”.
NEW: Watch as Border Patrol mass releases hundreds of illegal migrants to a city street in San Diego as CBP facilities are overcrowded.
Migrant: “It’s no problem if I go to Chicago?”
BP agent: “You can do whatever you want, you’re free.”These are Biden’s buses, not Texas. pic.twitter.com/X7J9Vq9AfK

Dears, let’s be honest. Most of us don’t keep up with popular music beyond what we listened to in our teens and 20s. Which is why I roll my eyes when the election season yields such silly stuff as candidates listing their top 20 playlist. And, of course, Victory Girls has already covered the latest musical phenom, Oliver Anthony, and his Dylanesque/blue grass lament Rich Men North of Richmond. I never cared for Bobby back in the day and while I may appreciate Oliver’s passion, his musical genre doesn’t impress me. It’s all a matter of taste.
But I will say for the man, it looks like he may be the real deal when it comes to living his own principles.
Country sensation Oliver Anthony made the decision to cancel an upcoming performance in Knoxville, Tennessee, after the bar he was slated to perform at hiked up ticket prices. …
“I apologize for the price at Cotton Eyed Joe,” the musician wrote to his official Facebook page on Tuesday. “Have a friend of mine trying to help me book gigs. I told him I don’t want to do anything that’s more than $40 a ticket, ideally no more than $25 a piece.”
“These are supposed to be affordable shows. Please don’t pay $90 for a ticket. I’m going to work out the details with him and if we have to reschedule this event somewhere else we will,” the singer wrote.

$4000 may not seem a large amount of money in a nation, indeed in a state like California where smash-n-grab burglaries in the tens-of-thousands of dollars go unpunished. But to one woman, it was for her kids to go to school and when she misplaced it, providence sent her an honest man to find it.
At the Costco on Shaw and Clovis Avenue in Clovis, California, (Joe) Sotelo was putting away cases of bottled water when something on one of the pallets caught his eye. It was an envelope it seemed.
It contained $3,940, and Sotelo immediately notified his managers. Together, they tracked down the member who misplaced it using surveillance footage and her member ID.
Joe received an Employee of the Month award and I lift up my glass to salute his action. Today’s world was just a tiny bit less mean because of him. Bravo.

Our Sunday together has fast come to an end. I hope you have plans to enjoy the rest of the day … with good friends or a good book, I wish you well and I’ll see you next Sunday. Cheers.

Cameron says: Any idea why Al-Gayeda is angry with Kevin McCarthy or is it just a day ending in Y?
GWB says: “There’s a really profound and peculiar disconnect going on.”
Yes, Paul, between your ears.
BTW, anyone seen his cat, lately?
the great replacement as a conspiracy theory
It kinda is, but only in that the reasoning is wrong.
It is NOT that they want to replace American voters. No, they want to erase our uniqueness as America. The goal is not Democrat power but sliding us over into globalism. If half the people here have no real allegiance to the USA, and America is no longer unique in its attitudes and worldview, then globalism can continue – getting us all under one big roof of UN/Davos control. The don’t need the votes, they need to destroy American uppitiness, because we stand in their way.
This is an invasion, not “migration”.
Well, it was that, even with all of the children and the women. It’s just a bit more obvious when you see who is coming.
And Bravo Zulu to Mr Sotelo. Thank you for making Monday a little brighter.
