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, dear friends! Holy frijoles, here we are at the last weekend of July! And what started off with fireworks is ending with a dizzying array of explosive politicking. From making the ridiculous high art to the art of the smear, it is going to be a long road to November. But, here, let’s get the flutes filled and passed, tuck into the veritable feast of sweet and savory items to keep your palate dazzled (do try the crab-filled eggs Benedict) and let’s get to it. L’Chaim!

DEI must DIE

Five minutes from PragerU …

That thing that never happens is happening … AGAIN

Trans-identified males took the first, second, and third place wins in a women's race during a cycling championship in Washington last week.

All had previously competed in male categories, one as recently as last year.https://t.co/a4X16lb0s1

Let’s not hear another word from Democrats about “MUH dEMocRaCY”

The cabal that put meatpuppet Biden in place was sufficiently panicked they flushed 14.5 million primary voters down the old commode.

In sum, at the 11th hour of a two-year reelection effort, a cabal arbitrarily decided that Joe Biden might well lose the Democrats the White House and the Congress.

So, they reversed course, now claiming his dementia was so acute as to destroy their November prospects. But mysteriously, his decline was not severe enough to imperil the American people, whom Biden must continue to lead until January 20, 2025.

Furthermore, the bosses’ replacement choice, Vice President Kamala Harris, had entered no primary. She never won a single delegate. Harris also never captured a single delegate in her first and only presidential run back in 2020. She then dropped out of the race even before the first Iowa and New Hampshire balloting.

We have now witnessed three left-wing veritable coups.

2020 had brought the perfect storm of nationwide lockdowns and health panics which allowed states to institute mail-in ballot schemes by fiat. And courts cooperated with the removal of even nominal guardrails on voting integrity, footdragging on rulings until after the election when there was no way to correct or enforce. For instance, Gavin Newsom was finally found by a court that he had no power to unilaterally bypass his own legislature to put everyone on mail-in ballot status. His punishment? A stern warning not to do it again.

Yeah, I’m sure that’ll stop Newsom and his by-any-means peers. Dears, I just don’t day drink enough. More champagne?

Screenshot because we should expect this to be scrubbed whenever the braintrust who wrote it wakes up from their cocaine coma and realizes that the interview posted was done in 2021.

That interview of 2021? Never does JD mention Project 2025. Oh NOES, it was communicated via special hand signals. You know, kinda like Dune or something. Bet he got the time machine from Elon, too. That’s how dastardly conservatives are! TIME MACHINES to defeat oUR dEMocRAcY!

Wipe the bad taste of Paris’ chaos and remember how an Olympics opening can be done with humor and taste.

Who is a good boy?

On July 7, emergency dispatchers in North Carolina received a call from a passerby that a child was walking by himself on a Union County road.

When deputies responded, they were unable to locate the child’s home or parents due to the boy being both autistic and non-verbal, according to a release from the Union County Sheriff’s Office.

It was then that bloodhound Remi and his handler, Deputy B. Belk, decided to try a “reverse” K-9 track – something “out of the norm” for a K9 to do, Lieutenant Public Information Officer James Maye told CNN. (snip)

In about 15 minutes, Remi was able to lead the child back home, about a half mile away in a nearby neighborhood.

When deputies arrived, the home’s garage door was open and they determined the boy, approximately six years old, left “in a secretive manner that would not have alerted his parents.”

This was a success all around and Remi’s sterling performance in “reverse” tracking, the technique will be incorporated in future K9 trainings.

Remi, you’re the good boy! Hope the doggo got a steak dinner.

Yikes! Our morning together has flown and here we are looking to say good-bye for the day. Poor August — the Rodney Dangerfield of months — will be on deck and as the DNC convention looms shortly, it’ll be interesting to watch. With lots and lots of popcorn on hand! See you next Sunday, dears. Cheers!
