Did anyone notice that after the disgraceful conviction of Donald Trump, there were no street protests, burning of buildings and howling mobs besieging the home of the awful judge who caused the conviction?
I guess all those right-wing domestic terrorists and Christian Nationalists the FBI warned us about were still asleep or at breakfast or something.
Here’s some “interesting” news about driving in the Eeeew and Britishland:
UK drivers have been issued a four-week warning of motoring laws being tightened in an attempt to crackdown on the number of speeding fines and accidents.
From July, the UK could see EU speed limiters being installed in cars. All showroom vehicles will be required to come equipped with Intelligent Speed Assist (ISA) technology. Cars that have already been manufactured but have yet to be sold will also have to adhere to the new rules.
“The new rules,” a spokesperson for Motor Match said, “introduce ‘mandatory’ speed limiters, changing how we drive on roads.”
Question: when is Brexit not Brexit? When the BritGov slavishly follows an EU diktat. And note that the foul ISA thing is labeled (Orwellian style) as “Assist” and not “Control” (which is its true function).
Of course, that could never happen in Murka, you might say. Well, technically, Kalifornia isn’t really part of the republic, so:
California could soon join the European Union in requiring all new cars to alert drivers when they break the speed limit, a proposal aimed at reducing traffic deaths that would likely impact drivers across the country should it become law.
The federal government sets safety standards for vehicles nationwide, which is why most cars now beep at drivers if their seat belt isn’t fastened. A bill in the California Legislature — which passed its first vote in the state Senate on Tuesday — would go further by requiring all new cars sold in the state by 2032 to beep at drivers when they exceed the speed limit by at least 10 mph.
Of course, the Golden Shower state’s little exercise in statist nannyism is just an “advisory” device…
I leave the rest to your imagination.
…news from Amazon:
Well now: considering that the CEO of GrubHub has publicly stated that Trump supporters/MAGA types need not bother applying for positions at his company, I think it’s only fair that this Trump supporter/MAGA type refuses to do business with his poxy company, ever. Even if it’s free.
From the looniest bitch (among many):
Thank you for helping me make up my mind, Kathy. Hope you’re prepared for your suggested outcome because I suspect we are, more so than you.
(Did she think we were going to be scared?)
Of all the comments I’ve read about the Trump verdict so far, Bonchie (over at RedState) has the best take:
So now what?
Some aren’t going to like this, but the answer is to suck it up and do what it takes to win in November. Shouting at the sky, making all-caps posts on social media, and continuing to talk about how unfair everything is won’t move the needle. Trump was nominated knowing this was the likely outcome. None of this is a surprise. This is not the time to quiver. It’s the time to strike back.
This isn’t about liking Trump or not. It’s not about whether he should have been the nominee. There will be time for post-mortems after the election. Right now is the time to get up off the mat and do everything possible to make Democrats regret this for the good of the country and the credibility of the judicial system.
That, and lay in more supplies of ammo.
Because if Trump is sworn in as POTUS in January, the S may well HTF. We won’t start it, but we may well have to finish it.

Actually, I think they stole that “strategy” from FuckJoeBiden.
