An auto-da-fé (from Portuguese auto da fé, meaning ‘act of faith’) was the ritual of public penance carried out between the 15th and 19th centuries of condemned heretics and apostates imposed by the Spanish, Portuguese, or Mexican Inquisition as punishment and enforced by civil authorities. Its most extreme form was death by burning.

NBC Universal announced this week that it would be removing four episodes of the hit show “30 Rock” that featured characters in blackface. In the wake of this announcement, the show’s creator and star Tina Fey has issued a groveling apology for her role in the episodes. “As we strive to do the work and do better in regards to race in America, we believe that these episodes featuring actors in race-changing makeup are best taken out of circulation,” said Fey, who frequently bashes President Donald Trump.

There is little for me to add to the current reaction to our Lefty Inquisition, whose number one weapon is fear and surprise. Two! Two main weapons are fear, surprise, and a fanatical devotion to Marx.
Yesterday was a low-turnout primary election for the GOP challenger for Senator Bucky Warner here in Virginia this November.
I had thought Trump was on a glide slope to re-election, until the ‘rona. Now I’m past predicting anything other than a wild ride. Keep your powder dry, patriots!
