Quinn Yeargain's Substack proposal would set a mandatory retirement age below that of the youngest justice

After the Virginia Supreme Court rejected the results of the recent Democratic effort to effectively wipe out Republican representation in the state, Democratic pundits and activists have latched onto a proposal by Michigan State law professor Quinn Yeargain to gut the court by forcing the retirement of the current justices, appointing liberal activists, and then reversing the opinion. It is extremely telling that some are pushing the raw muscle play to retake power in Washington, particularly in light of the calls to pack the United States Supreme Court once the party is back in control.

Professor Yeargain declared on Substack that there is "a simple - and lawful - solution: Send the entire court into early retirement." Under this plan, Virginia Democrats would adopt an absurdly low age for retirement in a gut-and-pack scheme: Yeargain suggested that they could set "the mandatory retirement of justices and judges after they reach a prescribed age, beyond which they shall not serve, regardless of the term to which elected or appointed."

The current retirement age is 73.

'Forget Climate Change' says New York Times to Democrats

Climate Change has become electoral poison

Too late, the socialists have realized they've lost the working class.

Not only did the British Labour Party get humiliated in the last few days, but ten thousand miles away, so did the Australia conservatives where they suffered a catastrophic 30% swing to One Nation. The unthinkable is happening. unelectable Climate Deniers are romping home politically, and the workers are voting "far-right".

Climate change and the core left-wing totems are not just failing to reach voters, they're actively turning them away. It's the same in the US where voters have already elected the antichrist of Climate Action (and three times already). It's slowly dawning on the socialists that it is not a momentary blip.

Things are getting so bad, the New York Times warned Democrats to "Forget climate change, and talk about something else.".

Rodent infestation caused by Israel's destruction of Gaza is now creating a public health catastrophe

More than 70,000 infections have been recorded in Gaza this year, as rats bite children as they sleep and skin diseases kill those prevented from receiving treatment abroad. Health officials say a plague outbreak is no longer a remote possibility.

At the beginning of April, Enshrah Hajjaj, a 61-year-old woman with diabetes, woke up in her tent in Gaza City to find blood on her toes. She couldn't figure out how she started bleeding, so she treated herself inside her tent with her family and carried on with her day. A week later, she woke up again to find the same bleeding toes — but this time, half of them were missing. She began screaming, and her family rushed her to the hospital, where doctors told her that rats had eaten through them while she slept. As a diabetic, she had lost much of the sensation in her feet, a common complication of the disease, and had felt nothing.

Comment: By creating the ultimate degrade in living conditions to automate a horrific mass genocide, Israel doesn't have to lift a finger, nor 'suffer' responsibility.

San Francisco plots draconian outdoor smoking ban as locals erupt

San Francisco is rolling out a sweeping outdoor smoking ban that would snuff out cigarettes on bar patios and parklets across the city.

The move has ignited outrage among local business owners, who argue the draconian measure is just the latest example of government overreach putting neighborhood bars at risk.

The controversial ordinance, being crafted by Supervisor Myrna Melgar and Dr. John Maa of the San Francisco Marin Medical Society, would require bars and taverns to follow the same smoke-free outdoor regulations already imposed on restaurants under state and local law, KTVU reported.

If passed, customers would no longer be allowed to smoke while enjoying drinks at outdoor bar spaces across the notoriously left-leaning city.

Gold, debt and the inevitable global housing market crash

Maybe the most prominent economic discussion circulating today is the fear that the vast majority of people have been priced out of housing markets for the rest of their lives, regardless of the country they live. Gen Z and even Gen Alpha teens are already planning for a future in which buying a home is impossible. Those that are buying are aiming for cost efficiency and they are buying alone (prioritizing savings and home ownership over marriage).

This is a subject for another article but it represents a reversal in traditional consumer behavior; a sea change that needs to be examined because it reflects greater underlying social and economic struggles.

This struggle is not only happening in the US; all across the western world from Australia to Canada to most of Europe people are facing the worst home price inflation in decades and they're scrambling to find ways to adapt.

However, just as in physics, there are rules of motion that still apply to markets regardless of government or central bank intervention. What goes up must inevitably come down. There's been an interesting development in the past year, specifically on the sellers side of the housing equation, and it signals big changes in the near term.

Dems nervous as outsider Spencer Pratt surges in L.A. mayoral race

Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt, best known for his role on MTV's The Hills, is gaining traction on online prediction markets, including Polymarket and Kalshi, as well as local polling, after a series of viral campaign videos and last week's mayoral debate.

Pratt's campaign has released hard-hitting viral ads that have spread across social media like wildfire. His election odds are rising as voters realize that the far-left incumbent, Mayor Karen Bass, and socialist Councilmember Nithya Raman have transformed one of America's top cities into a cesspool of crime, chaos, drugs, and out-of-control taxes.

The debate last week served as a major inflection point, boosting Pratt's visibility and positioning him as a more serious contender in the race.

Comment: CBS was eventually Xitter-shamed into publishing that interview:


Nothing is more powerful than a man recounting his personal experience:

Minnesota Dems unanimously vote to protect Rep. Ilhan Omar, and keep dead voters on their rolls

Minnesota Senate Democrats recently voted — unaminously — against removing deceased persons from the state's voter rolls.

This tracks with the fact that almost 100% of dead people vote for Democrats, making them Democrats' most loyal voting bloc, even surpassing that of serial killers. (This may explain why, historically, Democrat gerrymandering seems designed to encompass as many cemeteries as possible. O.K., that is just an unfounded assertion, but it seems likely, does it not?)

The dead — and serial killers — are groups that vote heavily for Democrats? Talk about a symbiotic relationship! The latter provide the former! Genius! Kismet!

Still more Disney employees arrested for child porn on a cruise ship

A major child porn arrest sweep on the docks of San Diego last month resulted in 28 arrests, including crew members on a Disney cruise ship.

Yep, once again we see "child porn" and "Disney employees" in the same headline.

Hell, as you'll see below, this isn't even the first time we've seen "Disney Cruise" and "child porn" in the same headline!

At this point, some of you are probably wondering why Disney doesn't do a better job of screening its employees. Well...

I hate to break this to you, but based on everything I've seen when it comes to Disney, including the epidemic of arrests (listed below) and the deliberate targeting and grooming small children with queering and adult sexualization in Disney content, I am of the informed opinion (we are still allowed to have opinions, right?) that Disney's employment screening process is in fact firing on all cylinders because, well, birds of a feather....

Comment: The New York Post follows up on the story:
Disney breaks silence after staff dragged off cruise ship as part of massive child porn sting

The Disney company has spoken out after immigration officials nabbed several of their staff off one of their cruise ships in San Diego last month as part of a massive child porn sting.

Customs and Border Protection told the California Post they arrested 27 workers off eight different vessels between April 23 and 27 as part of ongoing child sexual exploitation material enforcement operations.

Disney said the majority of those apprehended were not from their company while reiterating their cooperation with law enforcement.

"We have a zero-tolerance policy for this type of behavior and fully cooperated with law enforcement," a Disney spokesperson told The Post.

"While the majority of these individuals were not from our cruise line, those who were are no longer with the company."

The company would not specify the exact number of Disney employees arrested. The immigration officials previously arrested the workers in front of stunned cruise ship passengers.

Passenger Dharmi Mehta took a video of the moment, saying one of those detained was her server during the five-day trip last month.

"He was full in uniform, which was in a blazer, tie. Some of the other employees were still in their chef's uniforms with their name tags on it," Mehta said. She called the arrests "really unsettling."

Customs and Border Protection told The California Post that agents interviewed 28 individuals and determined that all but one were allegedly involved.

26 of the crew members from the eight ships were from the Philippines, one from Portugal, and one from Indonesia.

The agency confirmed "all subjects were involved in either the receipt, possession, transportation, distribution, or viewing of CSEM or child pornography," cancelled their visas, and are removing them from the country. .

Baltimore's lawlessness spreads into suburbs as Democrats lose control

The city is "exponentially deteriorating"

Maryland is one of many blue states that have transformed into a failed progressive experiment, where net migration flows are negative as productive, working-class taxpayers flee the state, not just because of high taxes and the power bill crisis, but also because they've had enough of left-wing politicians and their failed criminal justice and social reforms that have fueled a decade of violent crime chaos.

We've extensively covered more than a decade of violent crime, riots, population collapse, and the exodus of taxpayers and businesses from imploding Baltimore City, which has been hit hard by a commercial real estate crisis in parts of the downtown area. But rarely have we focused on Baltimore County, just north of the city, where, yet again, left-wing politicians who masquerade as competent managers but are merely DEI activists have unleashed years of lawlessness through failed policies.

Street after LA fires

"History records no pity for parties that choose purity over competence, vengeance over vision, pathology over pragmatism. The long night is not coming. It is here. . . . "
— LHGrey on X
The Pacific Palisades fire ignited on January 7, 2025, in the very last days of the "Joe Biden" fake presidency. 6,837 total buildings destroyed plus about 1,000 damaged. The Altadena fire across town in Eaton Canyon was arguably worse: 9,418 buildings destroyed. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass was in Ghana at the time to attend the inauguration of president John Dramani Mahama, part of a small U.S. presidential delegation sent by the "Biden" administration.

Deputy Mayor for Public Safety, Brian Williams, overseer of the Police and Fire Departments, was on administrative leave at the time due to an alleged bomb threat against City Hall that he reportedly made in September / October 2024. The FBI raided his house that December, and in 2025 he copped a plea deal (guilty) to making threats involving fire and explosives. So, he was out of action during the fires.

There you have the rectified essence of how the Democratic Party operates in America's biggest state. Is it not astonishing that Karen Bass is running for reelection? How could she possibly be forgiven? A large number of people employed in the movie business got burned out of their homes in the fires, and then city and state regulatory nonsense prevented them from rebuilding — on top of insurance company hocus-pocus that left families financially wrecked. Is it a surprise that the city's flagship industry is dying now (film production down 32-percent on a five-year average)? What is LA without Hollywood?
