The Conservative Cave

1st dem in 30 years...There's a connection to the voting public. Some dying off, replaced by new voters.
Not sure how many dead voted.
On the plus side, it will probably only take one term for them to see the light.

Bari Weiss Named a New CBS News Anchor, and the Response Is the Funniest News Ever

New CBS News chief Bari Weiss, whose center-left ideology is too far to the right for many of her employees, has done it again by naming a "mediocre straight white man" to anchor the division's flagship CBS Evening News.

A report late Tuesday in the UK Independent claims that "many staffers at CBS News are not thrilled" with Weiss picking CBS Mornings host Tony Dokoupil to sit in the anchor chair. “It’s an insult to the storied news giants who came before him,” one CBS News reporter told the paper.
...
This is the same network that had to show Evening News anchor Dan Rather the door in 2005 for using laughable forgeries to "prove" that then-President George W. Bush repeatedly went AWOL during his service with the Texas Air National Guard as a fighter pilot.
...
I don't mean to pick on Dan Rather [Yes, you do, Steve —Editor], but that CBS Evening News anchor chair has seated some seriously unworthy butts since Rather's walk of shame out the door two decades ago.

Longtime Sunday show talking head Bob Schieffer was supposed to be Rather's temporary replacement, but the news division's bench was so thin that they kept him on longer than planned, until finally settling on chirpy morning show host Katie Couric.

The less said about Couric, the better. But I would like to take a moment to remind you that as a "journalist," she's so unbiased that she appeared as herself on an episode of Will & Grace, long after the once-funny show had descended into partisan mockery.

Couric was a ratings disaster, but still stuck around for about five years before being replaced by Scott Pelley, who at least stanched the ratings losses. Jeff Glor and then Norah O'Donnell followed Pelley. None of the three managed to improve CBS's reputation for bias.

I've not heard of Dokoupil, nor some others who have been in that position. Looking over his W'pedia bio, he's at least as experienced and talented as anyone else at SeeBS (not a high standard, admittedly). I suspect that the "mediocre straight white man" denigration simply means, "We are not sure he's Prog enough to faithfully parrot the Dem Party line straight out of the Fax machine."

Charlotte Sheriff Gripes That Iryna’s Law Is Likely to Overcrowd Jails

Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry McFadden complained that Iryna’s Law will overcrowd the jails. He said this days after another train stabbing. So it would seem he has no issue with criminals sticking knives into innocent victims, so long as they don’t fill up his jail. Talk about a sheriff unfit for duty. To make the situation even more shameful, the sheriff whined about how many people saw the video of Iryna getting stabbed and acted as if the judges that social media users criticized were more worthy of pity than Iryna.

Sheriff McFadden acted as if Iryna’s grisly death at the hands of serial criminal Decarlos Brown Jr. — simply because she was white — were somehow a plot to make his life difficult. “And we believe that the only reason that this caught national attention is because it was caught on video and it was displayed across the United States, and our local politicians at that time saw it was a political agenda, or they could highlight her as a refugee and not an immigrant,” he griped at a press conference. “This is why they created Iryna's Law.”

And boy, is he angry that criminals will be sent to jail instead of being allowed to roam free and commit crimes over and over and over. You see, Iryna’s Law imposes stricter penalties for violent offenders and repeat offenders before pre-trial release, in some cases preventing them from pre-trial release altogether.

I see McFadden doen't - and probably won't - admit that catch-and-release of violent criminals engenders increased violent crime.

Kammie's relevance complex is pretty ludicrous. What interested me at the time, in 2021 shortly after LIEden was inaugurated, he gave Kammie on a silver platter an opportunity to make herself very significant in his Administration. He appointed her "Border Czar". Has she actually done something, anything, meaningful to secure US borders, she could have made herself LIEden's heir apparent. But Kammie has several defining characteristics, two of which are stupidity and laziness. She was to stupid to recognize the opportunity handed her (if even I recognized it but she did not, that's monumental stooooooopidity!), and to lazy to simply do something.

Kamala Harris declares herself a 'historic' figure: 'There will be a marble bust of me'

Former Vice President Kamala Harris declared herself to be a "historic figure" on Tuesday and touted that there will be a marble bust of her constructed in Congress.

Harris made the statement during an interview with The New York Times regarding her upcoming book, "107 Days," telling the newspaper that she no longer feels "burdened" by the need to achieve a place in history.

"I understand the focus on ’28 and all that," she told the Times. "But there will be a marble bust of me in Congress. I am a historic figure like any Vice President of the United States ever was."
