Never underestimate the motherhood instinct. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Armed Mom Takes on Three Bad Guys With Gun in One Hand, Baby in the Other [...] While I know a lot of strong, capable women who can do plenty on their own, the truth is that a woman alone is always going to be at least somewhat more vulnerable than a man on his own. Add in a baby and now you've got a different sort of thing. But then again, Rudyard Kipling noted, "The female of the species is more deadly than the male." A few bad guys in Illinois found that out the hard way. [...] https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2025/02/17/armed-mom-takes-on-three-bad-guys-with-gun-in-one-hand-baby-in-the-other-n1227700

Life can be fair sometimes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Luke Rosiak Shares How a Bureaucrat Was Almost Fired for Working With DOGE, Now Runs His Agency [...] Leland Dudek was an obscure bureaucrat at the Social Security Administration who dedicated his career to stopping fraud. But when he worked with the Department of Government Efficiency to do just that, he came close to being fired. "At 4:30pm EST, my boss called me to tell me I had been placed on administrative leave pending an Investigation," Dudek wrote on LinkedIn. "They want to fire me for cooperating with DOGE," he wrote in a now-deleted post obtained by The Daily Wire. Then, a stunning reversal occurred. It was Acting Social Security Commissioner Michelle King who was gone from the agency. And Dudek was reinstated with a big promotion — taking her job leading the massive agency on an interim basis.

It is Wednesday -- time for our hilarious Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== A BLONDE CALLS 9-1-1 A blonde called 9-1-1 to report that her car had been broken into. She was hysterical as she explained her situation to the dispatcher. "They've stolen the dashboard, the steering wheel, the brake pedal, and even the accelerator!" she cried. The 9-1-1 dispatcher said, "Stay calm. An officer is on the way. He will be there in two minutes."

Audit Reveals All Fort Knox Gold Replaced With IOUs FORT KNOX, KY — An audit by the Department Of Government Efficiency has revealed that all the heavy gold bars that were thought to be kept in the secure vault at Fort Knox have been replaced by thousands of little paper scraps with "IOU" hastily scrawled upon them.

Cleaning Out the Federal Stables—Trump-Style The Washington Post is having a fit—actually another fit: "How Trump is stretching laws to make the federal government more political." Where to begin? The irony—or if you prefer, the . . . gall: WaPo objecting to politics in an administration? You can't make this stuff up. They accuse President Trump of planning "to transform the federal government into a leaner operation packed with his loyalists." Well, yes. He campaigned on shrinking the government (dismantling the deep state) for the purpose of expanding the people's freedom. Nothing new there. And who's he expected to populate his administration with? His enemies? "His executive orders could [...] https://amgreatness.com/2025/02/15/cleaning-out-the-federal-stables-trump-style/
