Man. Democrats are sumpthin'.
Nothing like having a bang-up week chock full of only your best and brightest to work wonders for your brand rehabilitation.
What should have been a sleepy Monday dawned with word that their candidate in Virginia for Attorney General not only likes to drive fast, but also gets his kicks out of homicidal fever dreams about killing Republicans while watching as their small children die in their mother's arms.
As all 'littles fascists' should.
Was that all we found out about the appealing Jay Jones, D-Norfolk?
Nah.
We also found out that this empathetic, psychotic Democrat, running to be the TOP LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL IN THE STATE, doesn't mind a lick if he has to deal with a few less police on the job - and he wasn't talking about layoffs.
WHAT A PEACH
Jay Jones also supports killing police officers. Seriously. pic.twitter.com/XkTVFw8q8V

Despite all the best Dems circling their defensive little wagons and supporting him...
CNN: "Jay Jones said that the GOP Speaker should get two bullets in his head... Should he get out of the race?"

Pelosi: "What I understand is they say, on balance, he is a better person to be Attorney General."
Are you kidding me? pic.twitter.com/8fFXrAMMtC
...and a near total national media blackout...
Mainstream media exposed for not covering ANYTHING about Virginia Democrat AG candidate Jay Jones saying he wants to kill Republican officials and their children.

... Jones' opponent, Republican incumbent Jason Miyares, has taken the lead in polls.
Darn it. Looks as if sane, rational people are paying attention to what's happening on the East Coast.
Sadly for the Democratic Party, there are apparently no sane, rational, decent human beings in it or running at the moment.
If there were, Jay Jones would be bounced out on his demented ear and everyone else in the party would be on their best behavior to make sure the rest of the country isn't looking at them for a while. Let things simmer down some.
But that's not how these attention whoowahs operate. Lunatic, unhinged Democrats, literally from coast to coast and in-between, find it impossible to stay out or off of the nation's radar.
A sombrero-free Hakeem Jeffries, rumored to be some sort of congressional minority 'leader,' verbally duked it out in the halls of Congress with a GOP rep yesterday and...oh, dear. It was so bad.

The pretentious, posturing goofus doofus duo of the Midwest continues their diversionary sideshow when everyone simply wants time for a bathroom break from Democratic madness.
Still waiting for Mayor Johnson, CTU Pres. Gates, and Gov Pritzker to pause their anti Fed rhetoric long enough to comment on Chicago’s nation leading murders and shootings of school age youth now at 34 killed and 147 wounded this year. What are they going to do about it? pic.twitter.com/9BtvCnX755

As if all that Democrat dumbassery weren't a week's worth of clown show enough, the malevolent Cabbage Patch Katie of the West reappeared on the scene yesterday to remind everyone just how self-absorbed and truly ugly a person she is.
As David, dear man that he is, said in such an understated way in his piece yesterday:
"Porter has never been a pleasant person..."
KATIE PORTER DON'T NEED NO STINKIN' INTERVIEWS
This single snippet of a classic Porter meltdown. This snapshot in time of a woman who expects - not 'hopes,' but knows she is entitled - to be the next governor of California...
The leading Democrat in the race to replace California Governor Gavin Newsom, Katie Porter, has a meltdown at a CBS journalist:

...has suddenly unleashed a veritable flood of unforgettable Porter vignettes and horror stories that are so beyond the pale you have to wonder why this woman isn't in a straitjacket in a rubber room.
All vicious, all cringe, all so OMG awful that this Democratic lunatic is sucking the air out of other coverage and painting the end of an already horrible week for the donkey party as a deep blue reproduction of The Scream.
Here's a lovely headline no one had seen for a while about the candidate for governor of California. Some news outlets, trying to soften the blow, phrased it as 'abuse allegations resurface.'
OKAY
Katie Porter would pour scalding-hot mashed potatoes on your head if you’re not careful. pic.twitter.com/aacJh4YBmR

Because it sure is gosh darn hard to believe abuse 'allegations' when they have you on tape abusing your help so emphatically.
WARNING: NSFW language - no mashed potatoes
Newly leaked footage shows Katie Porter yelling at her staffer: "Get out of my f*cking shot!"pic.twitter.com/JRUUK0LuCC

Somehow, though, the help thought this was abusive, since they're the ones who leaked it.
...Video of the exchange, exclusively obtained by POLITICO on Wednesday, shows an online conversation between Porter and then-Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm in July 2021. Several minutes in, Porter’s staffer interjected to correct something the Democratic representative had said about electric vehicles. Porter then reprimanded her employee, who had also previously appeared periodically in the background during the recording.
“You also were in my shot before that. Stay out of my shot,” Porter said.
The staffer, whom POLITICO is not identifying out of privacy concerns and who was not the source of the video, declined to comment.
Somehow that moppet-headed, cabbage-patchy-cute thing doesn't work with constantly clenched teeth and f-bombs flying.
The Porter-palooza was in full swing by last night.
Katie Porter is definitely a psycho. Don't forget, she's also a racist and will cover up s*xual abuse. https://t.co/prmi2lKQlQ pic.twitter.com/MVDe3PTT43

I won't subject you to her infamous Batman outfit.
Needless to say, being the unflattering focus of a self-induced and demented 24-hour news cycle that seems to have no end so far is not conducive to conquering the ballot box.
But I'm LMAO
Katie Porter’s viral videos plunge campaign into ‘disaster’
“Is this a disaster? Yes,” a veteran Sacramento strategist concluded.
Katie Porter’s “unhappy experience” in a viral interview has become the news cycle from hell.
The bipartisan pile-on following the widely-circulated clip of her contentious sit-down with a local CBS news affiliate was only hours old when a new video surfaced from POLITICO of the former House member berating a staffer in 2021 — the two clips fueling long-simmering concerns about her temperament and judgment.
Together, they suddenly boiled over into the broader political zeitgeist, raising questions about just how durable Porter’s lead in California’s gubernatorial race really is.
“Is this a disaster? Yes,” said Gale Kaufman, a veteran Democratic strategist based in Sacramento. “And the reason it’s a disaster is because it amplifies what her reputation already is.”
Porter’s Democratic rivals, smelling blood in the water, quickly seized on the former congresswoman’s wince-worthy television appearance. Antonio Villaraigosa took the unusual step of purchasing three-minute ads in the Sacramento market to run the entirety of Porter’s tense exchange with CBS reporter Julie Watts. Stephen J. Cloobeck released a digital ad knocking Porter for past inflammatory comments. Xavier Becerra and Tony Thurmond highlighted their own, less-incendiary, responses to Watts’ questions. And Betty Yee called on Porter to drop out.
“As the last viable female candidate in this race, it matters to me that California’s first female governor be a trusted, respected leader we can all be proud of — not a viral embarrassment,” Yee said in a statement. “Women in politics are still held to higher standards, and Katie Porter has clearly failed that test.”
And see here, with this Dem strategist, you get to the crux of the whole problem with Democrats. Is she moaning about a KNOWN psychopath being in the race ('amplifies what her reputation already is,' hello)?
No. She's whining because the 'last VIABLE FEMALE' in the race is smoking herself BY herself - with her own actions.
How on EARTH did they ever think this loose cannon was 'viable' to begin with?
That's what's wrong with Democrats. Nothing is inexcusable. Nothing and no behavior is disqualifying.
No outburst or behavior is too vile.
Enjoy the wilderness, loons.
Beege UPDATE: And, oh, holy crap - wouldn't you know it?
Almost the second I hit 'publish' on this post, Bingley sends me an uproarious Taibbi Racket News column about Porter that evicerates this revolting creature so beautifully, the wounds cauterize themselves.
I want to apologize to Racket readers. I’ve been sick and in a funk for days. How bad? I watched an episode of Mike Tyson Mysteries and didn’t laugh once. Then I saw the Laurie Watts CBS interview with California gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter and finally laughed, which in turn led to reading court filings with quotes like “she then took the ceramic bowl of steaming hot potatoes and dumped it on my head” and “Are you so fucking stupid that you can’t make jello?” and “This is pornography. Only a terrible person would watch this!” (about season 4 of Californication). I then stayed up last night reading the 2023 memoir, I Swear: Politics is Messier Than My Minivan.
The book is less funny. but still fascinating as a field guide to a newly prevalent personality type. This is the person who simmers with nuclear rage while scrupulously cataloguing all the mistakes the vast flawed universe of Other People make in delaying his or her obviously deserved success. As I’m about to record America This Week with Walter Kirn the review isn’t finished, but it is forthcoming.
I mean, sincerely.
Democrats have to be right here right about now, and they did it all by their loneselves.
If we thought our job in pushing back against the Academia/media/Democrat censorship complex was over with the election, think again. This is going to be a long fight. Ed, David, John, and I are here for it.
