The FBIs out of touch search of Trump's homeMargot Cleveland: What was the FBI thinking when it raided former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home on Monday? The possibilities are plenty, but none paint a pretty picture. No matter the underlying purpose of the raid, one must wonder why none of the higher-ups in the FBI or the Department of Justice put the brakes on a search of the home of a former president of the United States — an event universally described as a modern crossing of the Rubicon. How could the DOJ and FBI not anticipate the visceral reaction a broad swath of America would have to the Biden administra... read more

Los Angeles reduces staff in homicide divisionWashington Examiner: Los Angeles Police Department homicide detectives are legendary, having investigated some of America’s most notorious cases: the Black Dahlia, the Hillside Strangler, the Onion Field murders, and the Charles Manson family murders to name a few. But these storied detectives have had their ranks decimated down to just 10 people in the vaulted Robbery Homicide Division due to a “defund the police” mindset that began long before George Floyd was killed in 2020, an LAPD insider told the *Washington Examiner*.

WHEN THE VIOLENCE ESCALATES, REPUBLICANS WILL JUST DENY IT'S REAL (updated)This isn't good: An armed man flashing an AR-15 style rifle fired a nail gun into an FBI Cincinnati building Thursday morning leading to a police pursuit and shots fired on an interstate, authorities said.... "Law enforcement has traded shots with a male suspect who is wearing a gray shirt and body armor," the agency said in an initial statement, warning people nearby to stay inside and lock their doors.

Gender and sexuality alliance clubs in our schools"The main national organization behind this campaign, the GSA Network, is a professionally staffed nonprofit with a multimillion-dollar annual budget. GSA Network serves as an umbrella organization for more than 4,000 “gender and sexuality alliances” across 40 states. Once called the Gay-Straight Alliance Network, the group rebranded in 2016, reflecting a new focus on “the limits of a binary gender system.” The individual chapters, which operate in elementary, middle, and high schools, often use the language of “LGBTQ inclusion” and “anti-bullying” in their public relations, but behi... read more

The FBI searched Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald Trump’s Florida residence
Donald Trump’s residence at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, on August 9, 2022 | Giorgio Viera/AFP via Getty Images Little is known about the search or what further steps, if any, the Justice Department might take. On Monday, August 8, FBI agents executed a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald Trump’s Florida residence. Trump confirmed the search in a statement published online, saying his residence was “occupied by a large group of FBI agents,” although he was reportedly in New York at the time.

Masturbation is Not an Ethnographic Method
Masturbation as a research tool. Really? Karl Andersson makes the case in the *Qualitative Research* journal. His piece, which argues that masturbation is a form of method acting, of entering the mindset of the subculture he's studying, allows for a deeper, more embodied way of grasping the subject matter than the standard methods of interviewing, observing, and immersing oneself in their output. He argues that there's a (subterranean) tradition of academic having had intimate relations with the people they've researched in the past, so is this any different?

But as I’ll explain, there are five things we can do to fight back. Corporations are using inflation as an excuse to raise their prices, hurting workers and consumers while they enjoy record profits. Prices are surging – but let’s be clear: corporations are not raising prices simply because of the increasing costs of supplies and labor.

If you're not prepared to take it on at that level you have no business getting involved in it.* Word. The theft by electoral fraud of the 2020 election demonstrates that reality. Getting rid of the thieves and fixing all they've done wrong is going to demonstrate it yet again. Peter read more
