IT’S CALVINBALL ALL THE WAY DOWN:
Speaking of… all of a sudden CA Dems think the "Top 2" primary isn't fair. I'm not going to get out of their way while they dismantle it, that's for damn sure. From today's Politico CA Playbook: https://t.co/PrlwyYLvOQ pic.twitter.com/HeuQ1KyIlv

CHANGE: Pennsylvania Supreme Court justice leaves Democratic Party over antisemitism concerns.
Justice David Wecht, who was elected to the court as a Democrat in 2015, said in a statement he is switching his party affiliation to independent due to an “acquiescence to Jew-hatred” becoming “disturbingly common among activists, leaders and even many elected officials in the Democratic Party.”
“I can no longer abide this. So, I won’t,” Wecht said. “I am no longer registered within any political party.”
In his statement, Wecht said he’s long felt antisemitism was most potent on the fringes of the right — especially after the 2018 shooting at Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue, where Wecht was married and is a former board member. But he said that since 2018, “that same hatred has grown on the left.”
Like kudzu, it’s taken over the left.

MISSED IT BY THAT MUCH: Jones “failed to change templates..because this one is still going to the Supreme Court of Virginia. The incompetence is mind blowing:”
Ok, so the AG of Virginia, Jay Jones, has filed an emergency appeal to the United States Supreme Court asking them to overrule the Virginia State Supreme Courts ruling, and while he may have sent it through spellcheck this time, he failed to change templates..because this one is… pic.twitter.com/VnaSPydgAQ

ROBERT SPENCER: GOP Congressman Wants to Clear Name of the World’s Most Prominent Falsely Accused Innocent Man. “It’s clear now that both impeachments of President Donald Trump were shabby partisan affairs based on zero evidence, and that will be remembered as shameful episodes in American history. So why should they remain on the record? Is there no way for the man to clear his name?”
TEMPERAMENT.
“Don’t pour a pot of boiling potatoes on your spouse’s head” is a single sex neutral standard of conduct that virtually all seekers of high office of both sexes manage to meet, and that no man would be able to continue running for governor having failed to meet https://t.co/jvtKCWkrFL

A hundred and seventy years before the Fall of the Alliance . . .
Anatoli Vyatkin and Wolf Offen have graduated from college into a major economic slump, and no job offers at all.
So why not check out some property Wolf inherited? Previously rented to a mercenary company, a desperate mayor from a world under threat mistakes them for real mercenaries . . . well, why not give it a try?

THEY DON’T DO GRADUATION ADDRESSES LIKE THIS NOW: Every Tuesday on HillFaith there appears a featured post entitled “FAITH OF THE FOUNDERS” that provides readers with a quote illustrating the deep influence on that remarkable generation.
Today’s installment is a passage from the address by then-Columbia University President William Samuel Johnson to the first graduating class after the American Revolution’s successful conclusion. Johnson was a delegate to the Constitutional Convention and was subsequently elected to the Senate. His father had previously served as Columbia’s first president.
The contrast between his deeply faith-informed address and the typical Critical Race Theory-based orations heard on today’s campuses points to the vast distance our nation has travelled in the wrong direction.
