The weird part is how no information has been released on the shooters, and no one in the media seems to be demanding it
Biden says gun violence ‘tearing communities apart’ after latest mass shootings
President Joe Biden on Tuesday said gun violence was tearing apart U.S. communities after mass shootings in Philadelphia, Baltimore and Fort Worth claimed the lives of at least 10 people ahead of the Fourth of July holiday.
Much more action is needed to “address the epidemic of gun violence that is tearing our communities apart,” Biden said in a statement released by the White House. He called on Republican lawmakers in the U.S. Congress to negotiate with his fellow Democrats on gun reforms.
“It is within our power to once again ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, to require safe storage of guns, to end gun manufacturers’ immunity from liability, and to enact universal background checks,” Biden said in the written remarks.
The Philly one was on Monday. The police reportedly have a suspect in custody, yet, they have not released any information. Some have dug in and say this is the shooter

Take it with a grain of salt until the Philly PD officially releases the arrest report. In Baltimore
(AP) No arrests had been made by early Monday. Richard Worley, Baltimore’s acting police commissioner, said it wasn’t clear if the shooting was targeted or random, but he said police believe there were multiple shooters.
“We don’t know exactly how many, but we do know more than one person was shooting,” Worley said.
So, most likely gang violence and revenge in what is, actually, a heavily black section of Baltimore, which is in a city and state with lots and lots of gun control.
The shooting Fort Worth happened at what was called “Comofest“, a big party in the Como section of the city. Yes, let’s go racial: this is a black area of the city and was mostly black folks there. This was not about “white supremacy”, as many have stated. “There is a war going on in the Black community and our young people don’t care,” said community activist Rev. Kyev Tatum. Democrat soft on crime policies, and others, have enabled this. Yet, Biden trots out the same old same old
It’s within our power to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, require safe storage, end gun manufacturers’ immunity from liability, and enact universal background checks. I call on Congressional Republicans to come to the table on meaningful, commonsense reforms.
The Republicans should offer legislation which takes away assault weapons and high capacity mags from the Secret Service and all who protect POTUS, the VP, those who work at the White House, and federal agencies. What’s good for We The People should be good for those who protect the President, right?

Citizens Climate Lobby members meet with Montana’s Congressional delegation
Five Montanans who were recently on Capitol Hill lobbying for national legislation to help solve climate change have returned home.
They joined 1,000 other volunteers from Citizen Climate Lobby groups across the nation.
The group met with Montana’s Congressional delegation to discuss what can be done on a national level to solve climate change and create clean energy. The trip’s purpose was to be in person with the delegation and show how much this matters to the Citizen Climate Lobby members.
“I was so inspired, after being in the congressional offices and being on Capitol Hill that the first thing I did after returning to the hotel room that day after our big day of lobbying is I called my two grown daughters and I told them, there is hope. We are going to solve climate change we need to just keep pushing and get things going a little faster,” said Robin Paone, Citizens Climate Lobby Chapter Co-leader.
While national legislation takes time to enact, Paone thinks we could see some change within the next year.
They were so inspired to attempt to force their beliefs which they refuse to practice in their own lives, eh? I’ve been asked in the past why little stories like this matter. Shouldn’t the focus be on the science? Well, if the science was so sound one would think that the Believers would attempt to reign in their own carbon footprint excesses, would they not? And shouldn’t media outlets like KPAX be asking the kids how they traveled to D.C., and, if a fossil fueled flight, why, considering they have a lawsuit pending in the Montana courts demanding the state Do Something about ‘climate change’.

Cocaine found in West Wing of White House while President Biden was away: What we know
The White House was temporarily closed on Sunday evening after Secret Service agents discovered a white powder substance suspected to be cocaine inside a work area in the West Wing.
The Secret Service said in a statement the White House was temporarily closed to allow members of law enforcement to investigate the substance and that the District of Columbia fire department assisted in evaluating the substance.
The fire department “quickly determined the item to be non-hazardous” after an initial evaluation, a spokesperson for the Secret Service said.
A fire department and emergency medical services field test Sunday evening identified a “yellow bar, meaning cocaine, hydrochloride” after a dispatch at 8:49 p.m., according to a publicly available recording of the encrypted call. (snip)
Members of the public who tour the White House usually are only allowed to visit the East Wing and Residence. Tour members are typically not permitted to visit the West Wing, which is where the president, vice president, and other senior administration officials have their offices.
OK, it’s Wednesday: are there answers yet? Who’s was it? Certainly, there are visitors logs and surveillance cameras. The Secret Service knows where it was found, and certainly knows who in the hell was in those areas. If not, some people need to be fired. It should be pretty darned easy to track in this day and age. Other than Biden and a few others, no one really just wanders around the White House willy nilly.
If we haven’t been briefed on who’s it was by Friday, you’ll know that the fix is in, being either Hunter Biden’s or someone who’s high ranking in the Biden admin. How long was it there? Or, will they find a fall guy who’s name we’ll never learn? Or will they figure out a way to Blame Trump? You know the Credentialed Media would be intimating that it was his or a family member’s, right, if he was in office?
But, the AP notes
Secret Service agents were doing routine rounds on Sunday when they found the white powder in an area accessible to tour groups, not in any particular West Wing office, the officials said. The officials were not authorized to discuss an ongoing investigation and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
So, which is it: accessible to the public or not? There are varying reports. Some say yes, accessible, some say no.

Just in time for Independence Day, Once Upon A Time, er, scientists say our national bird might be in trouble, unless you give up all your money and freedom
How climate change could hurt bald eagles
over the past 50 years, bald eagles in the U.S. have returned from the brink of extinction. Now, the birds perch on tree branches over rivers and lakes across much of the country.
But as the climate changes, eagles will face new challenges. For example, in some areas, more frequent droughts may threaten bodies of water that eagles depend on.
“If the area is becoming drier and if it affects its food resources such as fish in river systems then that’s going to be a big problem for the species,” says Brooke Bateman, senior scientist at the National Audubon Society.
If ifs and buts were candies and nuts we’d all have a wonderful Christmas
Bateman says global warming may also bring extreme weather with damaging winds that can endanger nests and baby birds. In the South, extreme heat could threaten the birds’ ability to reproduce.
Taking all these factors into account, the Audubon Society predicts that three-quarters of the bald eagles’ current summer range will become unsuitable for the birds in about 60 years.
“A lot of their breeding is going to shift completely into Canada and Alaska. So the lower 48 is looking less ideal for breeding conditions for the species,” Bateman says.
In Warmist World nothing ever changes or is supposed to change, which rather invalidates their extreme belief in Darwinism. Anyhow, what happens when absolutely nothing bad happens to the bald eagles?

It’s really fantastic that the push to force the TG beliefs on you and children is based on one person with mental illness
The quiet force behind Joe Biden’s push to defend transgender rights
Speaking before the largest Pride celebration in White House history this month, President Joe Biden looked out at the crowd and marveled at the people in front of him. He recognized “leaders across our administration,” like Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and HHS Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine, and took time to acknowledge his ambassador to Switzerland, Scott Miller, among other LGBTQ luminaries.
Along the way, Biden dropped another name, of a relatively obscure Delaware state senator.
“I am proud,” Biden said, “that back home in Delaware [we have] the first transgender state legislator in American history, Sarah McBride.”
Five days later, at the signing of an executive order “advancing protections for LGBTQI+ Individuals,” Biden mentioned McBride again. “Sarah,” he said, “you’re — wonderful to see you, kiddo.”
The mentions were odes to a person who, people in Biden’s orbit and others active in the advocacy space say, has directly shaped Biden’s personal and political evolution on transgender issues.
McBride’s close ties with the Biden family date back over 15 years. Last week, the country’s first transgender state senator announced she’s running for Delaware’s open House seat, in a bid that could make her the first openly transgender member of the U.S. Congress.
And there you have it: a man who needs mental health help is the one driving this push, which includes indoctrinating children into this loony tunes cult, erasing actual women, and all the other insane stuff you’ve seen.
As Republican-led states pass a growing number of laws restricting access to medical care for minors and the country sees a rise in anti-LGBTQ hate and extremism, Biden has leaned on McBride, calling her to discuss the current moment in American politics. Over time, she has helped turn one of the most devout Catholic presidents in U.S. history into an unlikely champion of LGBTQ causes.
A devout Catholic who supports killing the unborn
Earlier this month, responding to a question about anti-LGBTQ and anti-transgender laws popping up across the country, Biden urged Congress to pass the Equality Act and condemned “prejudiced” and “unjustified” attacks on LGBTQ Americans.
“Our fight is far, far from over because we have some hysterical and, I would argue, prejudiced people who are engaged in all of what you see going on around the country,” Biden said. “It’s an appeal to fear, and it’s an appeal that is totally, thoroughly unjustified and ugly.”
Yeah, that equality act is anything but. It would compel speech, penalize people who fail to genuflect to the trans cult, allow gender confused men to take even more sports and other spots from real women, and so much more.

Many more patriotic pinups below the fold
It’s always some sort of whining from the climate cultists. Bunch of miserable wankers
Wildfires are bad for air quality. Fireworks can make the smoke worse.
As smoke from Canadian wildfires lingers across much of the United States, Americans will soon experience another smoke show: Fourth of July fireworks.
It may come as a surprise, but the federal holiday stands out as the most polluted day of the year in many locations across the nation, according to air quality data. Fireworks — the staple of Independence Day celebrations — light up the sky but also launch harmful pollutants. In some cases, the pollution levels from the pyrotechnics are similar to severe wildfire smoke.
Americans love fireworks, and consumer purchases of them have grown to more than $2 billion yearly, according to the American Pyrotechnics Association. But these explosives have been implicated with causing water pollution and sparking wildfires, and some environmentalists say that, given the times, some restraint is needed.
Oh, piss off
Bill Magavern, the policy director for the California nonprofit Coalition for Clean Air, acknowledges that “almost everybody enjoys a good fireworks display,” but the environmental impacts are becoming harder to ignore.
“At a time when climate change is exacerbating air pollution and wildfires, we need to find cleaner substitutes for fireworks, especially in areas with poor air quality,” Magavern said.
Bunch of miserable people, always trying to force Everyone Else to be a part of their cult.
“I think people need to be aware that there’s a cost associated with firework burning, not just money, but also the health-related costs and the cost to the environment,” University of California environmental health scientist Jun Wu said.
It’s one day. One. But, then, a goodly chunk of the Warmists have America to start with, and do not want people celebrating it.

I’ve been reliably told that this is how Democracy ends. Hot Air’s David Strom says the 303 Creative ruling is far more important than the affirmative action one, since the former affects way more people than the latter, and, he’s right, because it is about free speech and individual freedom, as determined by the US Bill Of Rights. That people should not be compelled to comply with speech they do not agree with them. And then there’s this nutjob, which the opinion piece forgets to mention is a Democrat
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes tells U.S. Supreme Court to shove it
Colorado has a law on the books that says, in simple terms, a business open to the public can’t discriminate against gay people.
The radical right-wing majority of the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling last week saying that, yes, it can.
The court took the side of a web designer in Colorado who said it was her First Amendment right to refuse to design wedding websites for same-sex couples.
Arizona has a law much like Colorado’s.
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes announced in no uncertain terms that her office is determined to enforce it.
The Supreme Court be damned.
Someone’s looking for a suit, and should really read the Arizona Constitution, as well, starting with Article 2, Section 3 about the Constitution being the supreme law of the land, followed by section 6, freedom of speech, then section 12 “Liberty of conscience; appropriations for religious purposes prohibited; religious freedom”
She said in her statement, “Despite today’s ruling, Arizona law prohibits discrimination in places of public accommodation, including discrimination because of sexual orientation and gender identity.
“If any Arizonan believes that they have been the victim of discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity), national origin, or ancestry in a place of public accommodation, they should file a complaint with my office. I will continue to enforce Arizona’s public accommodation law to its fullest extent.”
So she doesn’t want to follow the Constitution? Funny how Democrats are always willing to ditch it when it Offends them. Isn’t this a violation of her membership of the Arizona bar, being a lawyer? Someone should file an ethics complaint. And, she doesn’t even understand the ruling: the Supreme Court did not say its ok to discriminate. It said the service provider is entitled to protection under the first amendment. That’s freedom of speech and expression. That’s different than freedom to discriminate. Especially when there are plenty of web designers, people who make cakes, etc.
