My A/C is out today — but I am working in my usual costume and it is overcast, so its basically like having my own work-at-home sauna.

Firstros are so far in front that their ace will be resting until after the All-Star break. If he gets all the way healthy, he’s going to be strong at the end of September — hopefully getting them into October.

The police officer who shot Philando Castile did nothing illegal, but his employer settled with the family for $3M. It seems like it would be cheaper to fire and aggressively prosecute police officers. (And, fair point to Kmele Foster in the latest 5th Column podcast, the officer was prosecuted with approximately the same charges that a non-law enforcement officer might be prosecuted if they shot and killed someone who said they had a gun and were reaching in their pocket. I think police officers ought to be held to a higher standard by both prosecutors and jurors, but at least the prosecutors got it to trial.)

The USSC seems to be signalling that they are looking to take a break broadening 2A rights. Dissenting were Thomas and Gorsuch.

The main wing of the GOP seems to be telling their people that the Health Care bill may be a giant turd sandwich, but everyone should take a bite.

Nate Silver’s blog says that maybe the “fight for $15” is hurting Seattle employment before they even finish implementing it. I’m guessing that between this and his hedging (and still missing) on (D) elections, he’s going to be outcast by 2018.

Throwback to the 90’s for the song.

Well I sure was wrong about Oregon State cruising to a CWS title. Instead we’re all going to get treated to an all-SEC affair. And that means my reporting on it has come to a conclusion.  Well, I’ll probably mention something on it, but that conference being a literal lock to win it takes a little shine off the remaining best of three series for me and for most of America. Which means we can focus on the professionals…and the Astros taking 2 of 3 from the second place Mariners over the weekend. But the Dodgers have come to within 1 game of the Astros for best record in the majors after reeling 10 games in a row off. Of course, there are like 6 whole teams in the NL with a winning record, but I will still give credit where its due.  Oh yeah, and Tim Tebow is moving up to high-A ball in the Mets organization.  They better start prepping him, because the way they’re playing, he might be the only person able to draw a crowd in New York by the end of the regular season.

And in other sports news, it looks like ESPN is trying to make a story out of a man saying what should be considered an obvious truth to anyone with a pair of brain cells to bump into each other.  Seriously, anybody that thinks an elite woman could compete with elite men in this sport is out of their goddamn mind. Plus Jordan Spieth did everything he could to piss a tournament away with his putter yesterday. So he did what only seemed obvious: he won it in a playoff without taking the flatstick out of his bag.

Well that’s your weekend sports update. Hope it whetted your appetite for…the links!

Just in case any of you wanted to know the story behind the next huge war…that we can hopefully sit out. But I doubt we can.  Hat tip: One True Athena.

When President Trump supporters show up to her town hall James Brown impersonator Congresswoman Maxine Waters says “Get back! Huh. This is the big payback.”

You just don’t understand their creativity, man. Or whatever it is that’s causing Hollywood celebrities to wax poetically about assassination.

This guy deserves a round of applause. Somebody owes him a life debt. Or a multiple broken bones debt. Either way, he done good.

Trump manages to cause massive butthurt even when he doesn’t do something. Of course, the “tradition” is all of 20 out of 240 years old. But don’t let that stop the left from shitting their pants over it. Several Muslim men expressed anger. Most Muslim women were not available for comment.

After months of reporting just about anything on Russia that crosses its plate, CNN decides to (perhaps) become a legitimate news outlet again. Or, as likely, they decide they want to make sure the stories fit their narrative before publishing them.

A nice mellow one for y’all.

That’s it. Go have a great day!

BONUS LINK FOR ZARDOZ’S FRIEND, STEVE SMITH.

If things seem a little fuzzy this morning, maybe it’s because you had an evening like mine. How can I adequately convey the chaos and drunkenness of drinking wines, beers, and bourbons until the wee hours? With SP, webdominatrix, JW, Swiss Servator, and SugarFree? Something like this conveys the basic idea.

It’s a Lynch mob. My money is on “lots of posturing, then one more corrupt Obama insider will skate without consequences.”

Department of Useless Gestures and Using Tax Money for Virtue Signalling. 

Old time Baltimoreans are not impressed. Hey, he has one more hand than Jay Mazzone.

Maybe Burkina Faso will be next?

Holy fuck, my hair hurts. Time to do it again.

I slammed together a few links for you all. I have important beer drinking to attend, so any complaints about the quality of links is probably warranted.  Here they are, judge for yourself.

• I am shocked, shocked to find people might be afraid to testify against the Teamsters!
• The British governmental system NEVER loses perspective! NEVER!!!
• Can both sides lose? Please?
• As a Veteran who would rather take his chances on Christian Science and New Age Crystals than the VA….Imma wait and see.

Enjoy, deride, ignore – all up to you. Enjoy your Friday!

OK, can we officially put anything to do with the NBA to bed for a month or so anyway? The draft is over. And I will grudgingly acknowledge that Philly might be in a position to win 30 games for the first time in a while. But they’re still several healthy years away from the juggernaut a few Glibs claim they’re on the cusp of becoming.  A lot can happen with young guys and hopes built on undrafted or largely unproven young players. Just ask the Celtics from the last couple of decades. Anyway, the Chicago Bulls probably had the best night of anyone in the NBA, except for LaVarr Ball obviously. That trade they pulled off in conjunction with their drafting of the Finnish seven-footer that can jack up shots from anywhere puts them firmly on equal footing with the Sixers in regards to a core of young talent.  Only time will tell how it works out.

TCU! TCU! TCU! The Horned Frogs knocked Louisville out of the CWS. Let’s hope they don’t run out of gas in the final four. Especially since they’re playing the Gators…who almost everybody in America rightly hates.  Also, the Astros won again. And a little nugget: they need to win one of their next five games to finish the first half of the season 20 games over .500.  Which is pretty much insane.

Not much else on the sports front. Which I’m sure makes some of you very happy. And which also allows me to jump into…the links!

Mama mia! First and only female gondolier in Venice’s history says she’s now a dude.  Or that she always was a dude. Or…something, Hell, I don’t know.

Mollie Hemingway eviscerates the FBI’s briefing on the Scalise shooting. Seriously, the FBI must have been channeling Baghdad Bob when they wrote the least accurate report I’ve seen in some time.

A nifty little montage of the tolerant, and enlightened, leftists in Hollywood. No wonder they’re such a political juggernaut and are so quick to sway political discourse in their favor. They are such sober, well-reasoned debaters of ideas.

James Comey visits the New York Times. Maybe he can ask for the documents he stole from the federal government and leaked to them so he can comply with congressional requests while he’s there.

Here’s one for the Masshole Glibs out there.

Say what you want about the Roberts court on some things, but they’re really fucking good on First Amendment cases.

And I know you like it too!

That’s it for the week. Go out there and give em hell this weekend!

Happy Thursday.

Trial For Venal, Buffoonish Leader Set for Fall; Process Could Lead to Ouster for Collusion  I like the cut of these guys’ jib

Senate Republicans spin up obstruction of justice investigation for Loretta Lynch. If only there were some sort of, I don’t know, metal law…

Irish surprised to find out they aren’t white allowed to flaunt immigration laws anymore. If ever they were. It takes a special level of stupid to go on TV and talk about being illegal.

Oh, man, Trump bluffed Comey to keep him honest in his testimony and everyone is surprised, shocked, horrified that there are no tapes. Something, something his lips were moving. Also, see this grandmaster trolling. The enemy of my enemy is neither my friend nor ally necessarily, but I can enjoy watching him sow chaos and disorder.

The common thread, pretty va-cant.
