BREAKING: FBI kills man because he made threats to a president who isn’t Trump
In a bizarre case of mistaken presidential identity, the FBI has reportedly taken swift action by eliminating a man who made threats against the wrong president.
“If the man had made threats against Trump, it wouldn’t have been a problem,” FBI Director Christopher Wray said. “But he made threats against Biden, so we had to kill him.”
The man, who goes by the pseudonym “Threat-Selective Steve,” had a moment of reckoning when he realized that his previous “it’s just a joke” attitude didn’t hold up when the target shifted. “I thought we were living in a world where making threats against certain presidents was just a quirky way of expressing political dissent,” Threat-Selective Steve said, befuddled.
Sources close to Threat-Selective Steve suggest that he may have believed in a mythical hierarchy of presidents, where making threats against one president was seen as edgy political commentary, while threatening others was deemed a grave offense. “It’s like he thought he was part of some secret club where it was okay to threaten certain leaders, but not others,” commented one acquaintance.
Good Night All, Hope tomorrow is not as hot as today. It was really uncomfortable to be outside for even just a few minutes. Lately just coming out the back door and into the garage to get in the car leaves me hot and so glad for the AC my Buick has at the ready so it starts about a… Read more »

Billy Cat didn’t show up for his supper until after dark, so then I sat out back with him to be sure no raccoons tried to take his food. He licked his bowl clean, then sauntered away, probably to rest up a bit by lying in the grass. Next time I looked out, I didn’t see him. And I had… Read more »

Oh, my, I love Kari Lake! Here she is, milking a cow and trolling the reporters.

Kari Lake mocks Regime Media to their faces while milking a cow: “You know there are only two genders, right? The New York Times should try to milk a cow and then try and milk a bull and see how that goes.”
We’ve eaten dinner and I’ve pitted another bag of cherries. They are halved and sitting in the freezer.

I have now made for the third time Bolognese Sauce from a recipe by Giada DeLaurentiis* with my adjustments. It’s pretty danged good.

There are a number of variations in making Bolognese and it can instigate arguments like BBQ in Texas, but this is the… Read more »

The list isn’t even complete, we revolted in our beginnings for less.
I did have a chore/project list looking back at me this morning, but I ignored it and had a series of naps, instead. Enjoyed every one of them!

64 Bonecrusher I’ve read as many different accounts by neighbors as I could find about what happened in Provo. Unless the FBI or some local LEO comes out and tells the truth about the sequence of events, we’ll never know.

Well, our outdoor thermometer (sensor in the shade on the front porch) says it’s all the way down to 99 now – the high we saw here at the house was 100 but when we got in the car, the thermometer in it said it was 104 outside… Consequently, I’ve been freezing thing for freeze-drying, and finished one load with… Read more »
TP 1731: I don’t believe that they attempted to arrest Craig Robertson: they executed him for speech.
So much for due process

The time it never rained, indeed.
I took a stroll around the house – first time in number of days. Then, I fixed a late lunch of a couple eggs, a couple of sausage patties, and toast at 2pm.
I sat down and promptly fell asleep and just now woke up.
This is a new one on me. SALT LAKE CITY — A former FBI special agent is reacting to a report that Truth Social, is what first tipped off the FBI to a now-dead Provo man accused of threatening President Joe Biden. Former FBI agent and current UVU Criminal Justice Professor Greg Rogers told KSL NewsRadio that tips from social… Read more »
About an hour and ten minutes ago, while I was zipping west on 290, the dashboard thermometer indicated 108F. That is hot, I don’t care who you are.
I am now on hold, as Kevin checks with his higher ups. We reviewed my actual credit card charge on my bank’s web page, and shore ’nuff, it is charged but not the full amount. It’s not even the base amount of the product (not including tax). Kevin is very perplexed, as their system is not set up for partial… Read more »
Well, several frustrating hours later, the problem is supposedly solved. The credit card charge was supposed to be accurate, Kevin had me go through an update process, and he PROMISES I won’t receive any more ugly emails about being cut off from my payroll function.
By the way, the high temp where he is in Tennessee is 89.
I like it when people say ‘I’ve never been a conspiracy theorist but…’
And my response is usually “I’ve always been a conspiracy theorist and…”

Yep, caught me in a typo. I know the difference, but as you can tell by the above post, my mind is somewhat kerfluffled this afternoon.
Well, my gift for weird situations has popped up again. Remember my recent ranting about Quickbooks forcing me to pay for “enhanced payroll”? I was unable to do it through the menu options as directed, so spent four hours with Latasha, who was not only patient but very capable and friendly. She managed to work around a software issue that… Read more »
I had no idea that principles could appreciate anything.
I’m pretty sure principals can, though.

Well, we delivered two boxes of supplies to three different elementary schools. The principles appreciated the gifts.
No one drove their VWs, though, because they don’t have air conditioning.
#52 mharper42, My thoughts exactly about being heat paralyzed. You do what you gotta do for the animals and do the things around the house that must be done but can delay doing stuff you might like to do that means you’ve gotta go outside.

Good Hot Afternoon Hamsters, We have a good breeze today, starting before we got up this morning and continuing with a vigor that has been missing for a week or so before yesterday.

Afternoon, gang. I have a longish list of chores that I thought I’d get started on today, but the heat seems to have me paralyzed.

Every one of the actors playing jury members in 12 Angry Men went on to long, very successful acting careers. Not all were as famous as Henry Fonda, Jack Klugman, Martin Balsam and Lee J. Cobb, but each one is notable and recognizable for the countless character roles they played for decades.
I have one in the cuspidor. Merick the commie terd Garland appointed David Weiss as special counsel .
12 Angry Men and Gaslight are gold standard examples of American cinema. They don’t get any better than that and I’ve watched both several times over the years. 12 Angry Men was originally written by Reginald Rose for Westinghouse’s Studio One which was live one hour performances for television. Henry Fonda was in that original production and he and Rose… Read more »

see the 2020 election steal.
be the 2020 election steal.
the wooden dummy has more than a chance, he’s already won.
I saw Gaslight as well, and yeah, nobody uses the term correctly.
Getting my mowing done, just to tidy up and get the leaves these stressed trees are dropping. Best you can do is try to follow the tire tracks, there ain’t much of a grass line to follow.
I think the original 1957 “12 Angry Men” with Henry Fonda is also a must watch movie. I still remember the looks that Hubby and I exchanged when it was over. Great, great movie. Remembering that movie, I am reminded of my recent jury experience. During voir dire, after discussing some vague traffic rules and laws, the defending attorney asked… Read more »
#42 Gaslight is a great movie. I take umbrage at folks who use that term loosely, not knowing from whence it came nor what it actually means. It’s tossed around so casually these days. It reminds me of Hannity getting called out on air for being ignorant as to what the term “drink the Kool-Aid” meant. “Oh, it’s just a… Read more »
For you fans of old movies… Early this morning I caught Gaslight (1944), a psychological thriller starring Charles Boyer and a 29-year-old Ingrid Bergman (woof). It follows a young woman whose husband slowly manipulates her into believing she is descending into insanity – to cover up his criminal activities. Angela Lansbury, playing the couple’s maid, makes her acting debut at… Read more »
I just got off the treadmill and I stepped outside to bring my trash can in. I need to take a shower before I head out to meet hubby and the car club to distribute some gifts to some local schools.

I am able to keep the 70’s in perspective because my 50-year high school reunion is drawing nigh.

I was going to link that one, too.
Interesting that John Stossel is involved with that site.
Another link on that page leads to “Electability”.
I thought this one was very interesting, for what it’s worth.
I predict that “Dust Brown and the Seven Pronouns” will lay a giant egg at the box office.
Election betting odds.
I cannot believe Biden still has a chance.
But what I find amusing and comforting is the fact that commercials tend to use music from the 70’s and 80’s.
I guess we did something right back then.
I was wondering what commercials will sound like in another 30 years – will they have hip hop in the background? You know, for the old folks?
