Flotsam and Jetsam - LA Smolders On, Musk Say's He's Sorta Sorry

And here we are, talking about the riots in my home town again. At Hat Hair John Sexton reports Five Charged with Assault, Molotov Cocktails in LA Riots. It's a start. I assume Kash will set all the junior G-men to round up everyone who assaulted a federal officer, they way they did with J6ers. And Dave Strom thinks you can Guess Which Side of the National Guard Debate the L.A. Cops Support and wonders Will the Riots Cost Democrats the Suburbs?, notes the message Republicans 'Seize' and 'Pounce' on Mexican Flags at Riots, You Know and sees Pallywood in Los Angeles, while Capt. Ed watches CNN: Guess Which Voter Demo Has Gone Wildly MAGA? (legal immigrants). From Da Wire, Republicans Push Federal Ban On Blocking Interstates After L.A. Riots Cause Highway Chaos, "'Blue states and cities have shown that they would rather have lawlessness and disfunction over law and order.'" You mean more chaos. Nick Arama at RedState shows a New Poll Destroys Dem Narrative on Riots and Trump Deployment of National Guard . Leah Barkoukis documents Dozens of Republican AGs Back Trump’s Response to LA Riots. David Burge @iowahawkblog, "Welcome to the USA, where our harshest critics refuse to leave." At Am Mil News, FBI manhunt underway for suspect who assaulted fed’l officer during major Los Angeles riots. Drew Berquist, Kash Patel Confirms FBI Is Tracking Who is Funding the Anti-ICE Riots in Los Angeles. Kurt Schlichter @KurtSchlichter "I’m losing patience with these people" Quote Savanah Hernandez@sav_says_, "Just watched 2 white liberals stop traffic and tell a mother who was begging to go to work, that illegals and their children are more important. I then asked them how they felt stopping a black woman from getting to work." At Campus Refom, rioting for credit? LA college faculty member encourages students to attend anti-ICE protest amid violent riots.

Insty, DECLARING CIVIL WAR? Wade 'n PrideNation @watn_tarnation "Um, guys, is anyone getting worried?" Kevin Dalton @TheKevinDalton, "Gavin Newsom’s “Major Address to Californians” was a prerecorded video that was initially streamed without audio. After several minutes, a new color corrected version of the same video with actual audio was started. What an absolute fail…" PJM's Matt Margolis thinks Gavin Newsom Humiliated Himself, and It Was Awesome. At NewsMax, Trump: 'Incompetent' Newsom Forced Guard Deployment and Speaker Johnson: 'Tar and Feather' Gov. Newsom. At Hat Hair, a Larry video, Riot Investigation Unleashed: Newsom Inflames Violence! Matt Vespa thinks Victor Davis Hanson Might Have Ended Gavin Newsom's Political Career. Harold Hutchinson at Da Caller hears Scott Jennings Roasts Gavin Newsom’s ‘Opportunistic’ Anti-Trump Rant: ‘He Sits Atop A Failed State.’ Sage Steele @sagesteele "Wow. I had totally forgotten about this." Quote "John Rich @johnrich, "So, Gavin will activate the National Guard to carry out Covid testing, but not to stop "burn the town down" riots? Copy that. https://gov.ca.gov/2022/01/07/governor-newsom-activates-national-guard-to-bolster-states-covid-19-testing-capacity/" At NRO, Rich Lowry roasts Karen Bass’s Imbecilic Riot Evasions. Hat Hair's Beege Welborn, What We Have Here Is a Failure to Communicate: Bass Wants to Talk to Trump Then Blames Him. Nick Arama at RedState, Former Capitol Police Chief Wrecks Pelosi for Her Remarks About LA Riots and Jan. 6. 'Becca Downs at TownHall notes Maxine Waters Told Quite the Lie About the LA Riots. Here's How Speaker Johnson Responded. Capt. Ed snitches on LA City Councilman to LAPD Chief: Start Snitching on ICE 'Abduction' Ops. Byron York@ByronYork, "At the bottom of the riots in California is that city and state officials there want to have their own immigration law. And they can't have their own immigration law. Wasn't that settled by the Arizona case in the Obama years? Arizona said to Obama: You're not enforcing immigration law, so we will. And Obama said: No, you won't. The federal government has the sole power to enforce immigration law, including the power *not* to enforce immigration law. It's not your decision. Case went to Supreme Court. Obama won. So today, the message is, California, you can't have your own immigration law. The sooner city and state officials accept that, the better the situation will be." At Da Mail, California's First Lady shrugs off riots crisis to shop in Beverly Hills. Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini)@AdamKinzinger. "I’m not sure why Gavin Newsome doesn’t activate the rest of his army guard to prevent the president from it or force him to overrule it…. Then fight on the second amendment guaranteeing a state a right to a militia. How can a state have a militia if the president can simplyShow more" DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican "Hello everyone, This "Hello" message isn't for Adam Kinzinger. It's for you, for every American who still believes in truth over narrative. Read his words carefully: "I'm not sure why Gavin Newsom doesn’t activate the rest of his army guard to prevent the president from it or force him to overrule it." This is not a gaffe. This is a sitting U.S. Congressman openly calling for military action against the sitting president. That is the textbook definition of insurrection. Yet the same people who branded January 6th an "insurrection"... who demanded mass arrests, surveillance, censorship, and military occupation of D.C.--are now applauding this. Heck, even Kinzinger himself sat on the J6 committee. They are engineering a color revolution to bring about regime change, and this post is proof."

Dave Strom hears the President of the Mexican Senate Wants Southwest United States Back. At TNP, WATCH: Mexican Senate Prez Alludes to ‘Reconquista’ of Southwest U.S. From Da Caller, No, Leftists — Rioters Don’t Deserve Land Acknowledgements. Drew Pavlou@DrewPavlou, "I can’t fucking believe that the new mentally ill communist position is that California is actually rightfully Mexican land because two centuries ago it was ruled by the feudal Mexican Empire for like 20 fucking years." Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog "It's pretty hilarious that the Left is no longer arguing that California belongs to the "indigenous" tribes that lived there hundreds of years ago. Now they say it's the rightful property of Mexico because it was claimed by the Spanish empire. I guess we all believe in the right of conquest now. No more land acknowledgments. That's progress."

From Twitchy, Greg Gutfeld Can't Help But Notice What's Missing From Media Coverage of L.A. Riots. TV News Now @TVNewsNow, "Fox News’ @greggutfeld calls out liberal media’s L.A. coverage: “What I find interesting is how come the networks aren’t interviewing the protesters? There’s a selective shielding going on. They know the protesters are the worst spokesmen for the protest.” “So, as the media ‘we’ll take care of that for you, we’ll become the spokesman.’ Their delusional commentary alongside the videos of the rioters and the arson is a perfect juxtaposition of reality and ideology. They’re trying to tell us it’s ‘mostly peaceful’.” “Every video strengthens Trump’s position and reminds us how wrong the media was on everything from the ‘summer of love’ to the fall of Biden.”" Matt Margolis, Here’s What’s Curiously Missing From Riot Coverage. From WokeSpy, CNN Melts Down After Trump Calls LA Rioters “Insurrectionists” What comes around, goes around. Driscoll at Insty notes ABC NEWS IS ANGRY THAT L.A. IS BEING DEFENDED.

At Althouse, "President Trump, during a speech at Fort Bragg, N.C., said on Tuesday that he would restore the names of all Army bases that were named for Confederate generals..." ""... but were ordered changed by Congress in the waning days of his first administration. His move skirts the law mandating the removal of Confederate symbols from the military through the same maneuver used to restore the name of Fort Bragg, which was briefly renamed Fort Liberty. In a statement, the Army said it would 'take immediate action' to restore the old names of the bases originally honoring Confederates, but the base names would instead honor other American soldiers with similar names and initials. "From "Trump Says Army Bases Will Revert to Confederate Names/The move would reverse a yearslong effort to remove names and symbols honoring the Confederacy from the military" (NYT). Maybe you like the traditional names, not because you're wistful about the Confederacy but because the place was named long ago and feels familiar and seems to stand on its own as the name of the place, but do you approve of the law being treated that way, evaded with such a sneaky, snarky ploy?" Yep, I do. And Once again, we've got alternating pro- and anti-Trump headlines at Real Clear Politics. "I blogged a screen grab like this 2 days ago, here, so let's take a look today's image of distanced balance:"

"“I thought it was very nice that he did that,” the president told The Post in a brief phone conversation Wednesday morning, but didn’t say whether he was willing to let bygones be bygones with the Tesla and SpaceX CEO."

John Sexton hears from DOJ: Judge Dugan Does Not Have Immunity for Disrupting ICE Arrest. We'll see, it will be judges deciding how much immunity judges have, until and unless Congress steps in.

John Sexton, Simone Biles Apologizes to Riley Gaines After Trans Athlete Dispute. Somebody pulled her aside and told her what the polling was like. Cathy Salgado at PJM, hears Gaines Accepts Biles' Apology, Warns Against Fake Empathy. At Twitchy, Prominent Transgender Activist Announces She is DETRANSITIONING & Gender Cultists MELT DOWN, the transition ratchet. The Pissed Off Lawyer @legaltweetz "I’m detransitioning. My name will still be Hendrix. My birth name carries a lot of abuse with it, so Hendrix stays. I will block anyone using my prior name. I was not talked into this or groomed. This is what I want. I made the choice to transition as an adult, and the buck stops here. I won’t be suing anyone, nor am I angry about it. However, after a lifetime of trauma due to being a female & 15+ years of endometriosis, I disconnected from my female body completely. More gatekeeping could have caught this instead of an ALL affirmation model. This is why I find the informed consent model to be flawed after 7+ years of transition."
