About fifty looters broke into an AutoZone and ransacked tens of thousands of dollars worth of merchandise. One person was taken into custody. This is Gov. Newson’s California. This is the Democrats’ idea of handling crime—the looting took place during a street takeover. Democrats don’t want imprisonment for criminals, Republicans sure, but not criminals.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus, 63, slammed Jerry Seinfeld during an interview with The New York Times over the weekend after Seinfeld noted that the political Left has killed television comedies. Dreyfus claimed that the show the two starred in, “Seinfeld,” could “probably not” be made today because “it’s hard to get anything different recognized” and “everyone’s sort of running scared.” When asked about the remarks Seinfeld made about political correctness killing comedy, Dreyfus claimed that a lot of comedy “bits and pieces … don’t age well.” Dreyfus, a staunch Democrat activist, said that she thinks having “an antenna about sensitivities is not a bad thing.” “When I hear people starting to complain about political correctness — and I understand why people might push back on it — but to me that’s a red flag, because it sometimes means something else,” she claimed. “I believe being aware of certain sensitivities is not a bad thing.” “My feeling about all of it is that political correctness, insofar as it equates to tolerance, is obviously fantastic,” she later added. “And of course I reserve the right to boo anyone who says anything that offends me, while also respecting their right to free speech, right?” Seinfeld said in an interview in late April that the American people “need” to be able to come home from work and have comedy on television. “They need it so badly and they don’t get it,” he said. “It used to be, you would go home at the end of the day, most people would go, “Oh, ‘Cheers’ is on. Oh, ‘M*A*S*H’ is on. Oh, ‘Mary Tyler Moore’ is on. ‘All in the Family’ is on.” You just expected, there’ll be some funny stuff we can watch on TV tonight.” “Well, guess what — where is it? This is the result of the extreme left and P.C. crap, and people worrying so much about offending other people,” he continued. “Now they’re going to see stand up comics because we are not policed by anyone. The audience polices us. We know when we’re off track. We know instantly and we adjust to it instantly.” “But when you write a script and it goes into four or five different hands, committees, groups — ‘Here’s our thought about this joke,’” he added. “Well, that’s the end of your comedy.” Related: ‘Seinfeld’ Actor John O’Hurley Rips Woke Culture For Ruining Comedy

Carrie Underwood was caught on camera falling right off the stage during the rain soaked finale of her show at the Carolina Country Music fest over the weekend. In a TMZ clip posted on X, the 41-year-old country singer continues singing as she walks to the back of the stage towards some stairs and then appears to slip and fall off them at the end of her performance at the Myrtle Beach concert on Sunday. Several fans spotted the fall and one can be overheard saying that the country singer “fell!” Taking to social media after the concert, the “Jesus Take The Wheel” hitmaker seemed to hint at the tumble, noting it was an unexpected ending. #CarrieUnderwood fell as she was exiting the stage after her concert this weekend ? https://t.co/P4Am5DJH1O pic.twitter.com/jQ7WyNFo3k — TMZ (@TMZ) June 10, 2024 ​​”Well, last night sure was fun!” Underwood captioned one of her post showing several snaps of her performing in the downpour. “And though the ending was quite unexpected, it made for a night we’ll never forget! Thanks for being awesome.” In a second post she wrote, “We won’t let a little rain stop us! We won’t let a massive downpour stop us, either!” The post included a video of her singing in what looked to be a torrential rain storm. The fall brought back memories of the time the “Blown Away” singer suffered in 2017 on the steps outside her Nashville home that resulted in her getting dozens of stitches and breaking her wrist. She went dark on social media for months and when she finally resurfaced she warned fans about her “not quite looking the same” after the accident, People magazine noted. In her post at the time to fan club members, Underwood wrote that she had to get “40 and 50 stitches” on her face, Billboard magazine noted at the time. “It’s crazy how a freak random accident can change your life. In addition to breaking my wrist, I somehow managed to injure my face as well. I’ll spare you the gruesome details, but when I came out of surgery the night of my fall, the doctor told [Underwood’s husband] Mike that he had put between 40 and 50 stitches in.” “I honestly don’t know how things are going to end up but I do know this: I am grateful,” she added. “I am grateful that it wasn’t much, much worse. And I am grateful for the people in my life that have been there every step of the way.” “I am determined to make 2018 amazing and I want to share things with you along the way,” Underwood continued. “And when I am ready to get in front of a camera, I want you all to understand why I might look a bit different.”

The American people just won’t govern themselves the way the Left tells them to. Caring more about power than liberty, the Left believes that its political ends justify their means. Just consider how leftists try to manipulate the Supreme Court, including smearing as “unethical” justices the Left considers too independent, hoping Americans will automatically question anything they do. The latest attack on Justice Clarence Thomas shows they are still at it, but the spaghetti is not sticking to the wall because it is fiction. The Left first suggested that the Supreme Court follows no ethical standards or guidelines. The same federal laws governing recusal and financial disclosure, however, have long applied to justices as well as lower court judges. Then the Left said that the Supreme Court does not have an “enforceable” code of conduct. Well, the code for lower court judges only provides “guidance” and the Supreme Court has followed that code for decades. Last fall, the high court essentially copied and pasted that code and put its own name on it. The Left didn’t seem to notice. Then the Left started dropping innuendos and rumors about things like the flag flown at a justice’s cottage or a vacation taken with some friends. Now comes one of those leftist groups, calling itself Fix the Court, with another round. The justices recently filed their financial disclosure reports for 2023. These cover activities such as serving on boards, investments, gifts, and liabilities. Fix the Court asserts that Thomas failed to disclose most of the gifts he has received that, they claim, total about $2.4 million over the last 20 years. As Paul Harvey would have said, here’s the rest of the story. First, the group claims to have “identified” gifts justices supposedly received from newspaper stories and its “own research,” whatever that means. Second, Fix the Court used its own definition of “gift,” failing to, er, disclose that this is not the definition of “gift” that judges and justices are required to use when filing their annual financial reports. Judges instead follow the Guide to Judiciary Policy, issued by the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts. The guide in place when Thomas joined the Supreme Court told judges to “exclude gifts received as the personal hospitality of any individual.” The 2012 revision stated that “a ‘gift’…does not include…social hospitality based on personal relationships.” And the current rule, revised in March 2023, provides that any food, lodging, or entertainment received as “personal hospitality of any individual” need not be reported. Third, Fix the Court’s description of how it came up with the gift totals is filled with words like “estimated” and “likely” as well as “we believe” and “in all likelihood” that, topped off with catch-alls such as “most likely an undercount” and the “additional ‘likely’ gifts” category. As they say, liars figure and figures lie. Not only are Fix the Court’s numbers literally their own invention, but this liberal smear of “and we hear this is just the tip of the iceberg” ambiguity makes their claims akin to double-hearsay. Fourth, the group assigned whatever dollar figure they wanted to these “gifts” that Thomas was not required to disclose. How they could possibly know, for example, the value of private meals the Thomases enjoyed with friends while on vacation is impossible to fathom. Fix the Court says that Thomas is unethical because he did not disclose what the group defines as gifts, with the value the group claims, regardless of the rules that federal judges actually have to follow. Those are just some of the misdirections and sleights-of-hand Fix the Court deployed to come up with numbers that they can then use to suggest that justices like Thomas, who interpret the Constitution as it’s written rather than making one up to fit the political agenda of this leftist group and its fellow travelers, are, well, just bad. That is, after all, what this campaign to manipulate the Supreme Court is all about. The Left wants a Supreme Court that will be a pliable and reliable political partner. To get there, groups like Fix the Court demand adding unnecessary seats to the Court, limiting justices’ terms, trying to force individual justices out of participating in certain cases, and smearing justices with fictional tales that they know most Americans will be unable to verify. Undermining the independence of the judiciary is one of King George’s “usurpations” that led to American independence in 1776. It’s what distinguishes our judiciary from most others around the world. It’s a fundamental principle that we should defend, not an obstacle that should be pushed aside.  The post Another Left-Wing Attempt to Smear Justice Thomas Fails appeared first on The Daily Signal.
