‘Something for Everyone to Hate’

It would be interesting to know how many high-school students in Loudon County, Virginia, would be able to identify Col. Edward D. Baker. If you are a student of the Civil War, you know that Baker’s death in the Battle of Ball’s Bluff was the chief inspiration for the creation of the Joint Committee on […]

When Police Yell ‘Drop the Gun,’ Guess What Happens If You Don’t?

Say hello to Rasheed Moorman, who may have been the unluckiest criminal in America. Or maybe he was just stupid. Notice my use of the past-tense verb “was.” Rasheed’s final crime was not his first. A previous exercise in criminal stupidity nearly killed him when, in 2014, he and an accomplice attempted to rob a […]

Police Chief Says ‘Elected Official’ Allowed Destruction of Portsmouth Monument

  Question: What role did a Confederate monument in Portsmouth, Virginia, play in the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis? Answer: None at all.

Governor Northam Couldn’t Be Setting Up A “Reichstag Fire” Event, Could He?

by Smitty Via @deplorable_s on Twitter and Tom DeWeese on FaceBook we have this tidbit: The whole Charlottesville disaster was bad enough, and Stacy covered it here and here. Given the Left’s need to control the conversation coupled with the pending implosion of the impeachment disaster, makes the Democrats more of a rabid, injured, cornered […]

Democrat ‘Rising Star’ Fading Fast

  Yeah, expect to see lots more shoes dropping in this case: Days after Dr. Vanessa Tyson went public with her sexual-assault allegations against Virginia Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax, another woman has accused him of rape. In a statement from her lawyer, Meredith Watson claims she was raped by Fairfax, who is next in line […]

‘Chaos’ in Virginia: Northam Besieged, Lieutenant Governor Denies Sex Assault

  Interesting lead from the Washington Post: Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax issued a statement early Monday denying a sexual assault allegation that appeared on the same conservative website that posted a racist photograph from Gov. Ralph Northam’s medical school yearbook page. They’re trying to discredit the story by attacking the messenger, Patrick Howley’s Big […]
