Photo of hobo with his harmonica and dope....

Just noticed that harmonica and it fits perfectly with the classic song of jazz organ artist Jimmy Smith “Hobo Flats.”
Buddy Lucas played the harmonica.

I used to love his albums in the 60s especially.

He would like Dukakis in the tank wearing a helmet.

EXACTLY what I was thinking! “What are they gonna do, arrest a bunch more people that the DA will then put RIGHT back on the street?”

The video of Newsom being an arrogant smug POS to a resident asking him what he’s going to do about the fentanyl problem sure has pissed off a lot of folks. It better be part of the conservative’s presidential ads if Newsom plans to run for President. Of course, CBS left out his snotty answer to the resident on their website.

Interesting perspective.

That sounds very plausible.

What is the NG going to actually do? They are not sworn Law Enforcement. They are not equipped or trained for these operations. They do not know the area like a local cop would. If you put them on a border, they might actually have an impact, but on the streets in San Fransisco?

Stages of a liberal-created problem:

1. Liberals get involved in something, anything.

2. Immediately a crisis/problem develops.

3. Liberals do nothing about the problem for a long time, just let it get worse.

4. The problem liberals created gets noticed and starts to get negative attention for liberals.

5. Liberals pretend to do something about the problem they created.

6. The problem never fixed, big government just continues to get bigger.

Erect tents that no one will use?

Start collecting the errant shopping carts?

Newsom leading from the news pages. He just found out there was an issue from reading the news. See all his travelling came in handy. Had he stayed in Cali he never would have known about this.

My old battalion, then headquartered in Richmond, could have provided indirect fire support on the Haight and other intellectual centers.

Nothing like 155mm HE to throttle the cartels.

... holding the operators of large-scale drug trafficking operations accountable,”

Is that border fence done yet?

“lead to the formation of a new collaborative operation”
Because, more government is always the answer.
Closing the border, arresting criminal aliens, prosecuting crimes, and exporting illegals, wouldn’t have the impact that a new government agency would.

It’s hard to imagine that any rational person would intentionally consume a street drug like Fentanyl. It’s a situation where even if a tiny fraction of the pill were to be pure Fentanyl, it would be fatal. It’s bad enough to take drugs manufactured by a regulated and inspected pharmaceutical company, but taking something manufactured and mixed by a drug cartel member in his bathtub is pure suicide. There is simply no way that the pills are mixed properly. Taking them is no different than chambering one round in a revolver, spinning it, and pulling the trigger wile pointing it at your head.

It’s likely that a large percentage of fatalities are in kids who think they are taking something else. I’m all for catching and jailing the pushers, but educating the potential users needs more attention, too.

***Dukakis looked like Rocky the Flying Squirrel ****

He looked like a possum smiling while eating s**t. I saw that and knew he was done.

Can somebody photo shop a picture of Newson into that tank wearing a helmet like Dukakus?

Newsom the Vile never does anything with first making a political calculation. If he doesn’t calculate that a decision will benefit him directly, there’s no decision to be made.
