RWNJ martyr Ashli Babbitt is the answer to the question, “How many of these kosplay kkkomandos have to die before the rest stand down?” and finally someone in the mainstream media has put a fine point on it: Her death was a turning point in the Jan. 6 Putsch.

Babbitt crossed a line that had been clearly delineated. The police obviously felt it was a last stand. The potential danger was obvious. Babbitt’s shooting appears to have stopped the forward movement of the crowd. … Could the mob possibly have been stopped without Babbitt’s death? Maybe. Perhaps there was a way to have avoided deadly force. But it’s not clear to me what that way would have been — and it is clear that if Babbitt had gone through that doorway, an out-of-control situation would have deteriorated further.

Meanwhile, the Capitol police officer who shot her was left unnamed for his safety, but he’s going public in an interview with Lester Holt.

Here’s something our war-loving media can’t explain: No Americans have been killed in the evacuation of Afghanistan, so why is it supposed to be a monumental fuck-up? All part of the media’s “liberal” bias, I suppose. Even the watchdog watchers at the Columbia Journalism Review have noticed.

Thousand of bikers converged on Sturgis, S.D., a couple of weeks back, and naturally Covid cases there have rocketed. I’ve checked the photos — nobody wore a mask, and nobody wasn’t old, fat or both.

Elsewhere in the death cult, Gov. Florida Man is finding his expose-’em-all strategy isn’t as popular as he might have hoped, though it gets thumbs up from Florida Republicans. I don’t mind that they want to die, I mind that they’re clogging up the emergency rooms to do it. Just use your guns, patriots!

If journalistic worrywarts are to be believed, this shitbag will be the next governor of California.

Speaking of shitbags, this grandstanding “Democratic” congressman flew to Afghanistan, a stunt quickly called out as such even by our fawning mainstream media. The lesson: When Democrats brag that their latest candidate is a veteran, be sure to vote against him in the primary.

Speaking of shitbags closer to home, perennial Republican loser Lee Murphy is running for Congress again.

The floor’s yours.
