BUZZ KILL –
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Prison inmates can’t legally possess marijuana under California’s law allowing recreational pot, the state Supreme Court ruled Thursday in overturning a lower court that found prisoners could have the drug as long as they didn’t consume it.
The justices said the 2019 appellate court ruling allowing prisoners to have up to 1 ounce (28.5 grams) of marijuana went against common sense. The high court sided with the state attorney general in finding the state’s marijuana law approved by voters did not apply to Californians in prison.
“It seems implausible” that the voters intended to essentially decriminalize marijuana in prisons, Associate Justice Joshua Groban wrote for the majority.
“We agree with the Attorney General that if the drafters had intended to so dramatically change the laws regarding cannabis in prison, we would expect them to have been more explicit about their goals,” he wrote.

‘She’s F***ing Up’: Democrats Reportedly Worried Kamala Harris Can’t Beat Any Republican In 2024, Including Trump

————————-
WHERE IS KAMALA HARRIS?
Has Kamala Harris been sent into the federal witness protection program? It seems so. She’s disappeared from view suddenly. No more interviews with network anchors apparently. Think of it as the “Democratic Election Prospects Protection Program.”
“One thing to keep in mind in reading a story like this is that The Hill, being part of the “mainstream” media, bends over backwards to downplay just how bad Harris’s plight is. (In fact the story tries to blame her problems on Republican attacks to “negatively brand Harris, oftentimes relying on racist and sexist stereotypes [boy, didn’t see that coming] to minimize her standing as the first female, Black and Asian American vice president.” Yeah, sure, that’s explains the whole thing. Funny how that didn’t work with Obama.) And yet the story still turns out this bad.
What this means is that behind the scenes, her poll numbers must be really bad, and leading Dems are panicked about it. Pass the popcorn please.”

The big KOWTOW to keep the cash flowing to the crack head and conceding defense policy to a crazed socialist –
After a push from far-left senators, the Biden administration is delaying the modernization of America’s nuclear weapons stockpile.
Multiple sources told the Washington Free Beacon that the White House is ordering the Department of Defense to explore extending the lifespan of America’s land-based nuclear arsenal. The decision marks an about-face for the Biden administration, which had previously committed to nuclear modernization efforts. Some Democrats have pushed the administration away from modernization, citing cost and concerns that it would escalate global tensions.
But military leaders are calling for nuclear modernization to counter efforts from Russia and China. Admiral Charles Richard, head of Strategic Command, said China’s nuclear arms are expanding at a “breathtaking” rate. Commercial satellite images released in July show the construction of two massive nuclear silo fields in the Chinese desert. Russia is constructing the heaviest ballistic missile in the world, which could enter service as early as 2022.
The Biden administration’s order follows a request from Sens. Jeff Merkley (D., Ore.) and Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.), who lead the contingent of Democrats opposed to nuclear modernization, to cut investment in modernization from the budget. In the coming months, an independent group of scientists will review the Minuteman III missiles, which were first deployed during the Vietnam War.

Creepy grampa joe abandons talibans targets to be executed with his botched scrapping of the plan well because Trump –
The U.S. Embassy in Afghanistan is urging Washington to evacuate Afghans who are under threat because of their work with the U.S. government — warning they cannot get out on their own and are in desperate need, according to an internal cable obtained by ABC News.
In an urgent and emotional appeal to State Department leadership, Ambassador Ross Wilson called for help for the thousands of Afghans who served the U.S., but will not be evacuated in the coming weeks by the administration.
Last week, the State Department announced that Afghans who did not qualify for the special immigrant visa program could instead apply for refugee status under a new initiative. That includes Afghans who didn’t meet the two-year employment requirement, who worked for a U.S.-funded program or a contractor instead of directly for the government, or who worked for a U.S.-based media outlet.
But that new program requires that these Afghans flee the country first — a barrier too high for the vast majority of them, according to Wilson.
“Any assumption that Afghan refugees can make their way to safety on foot does not reflect the new reality,” Wilson wrote — noting Taliban forces exercise control of more than half of the country’s border crossings, neighboring countries Iran and Pakistan are closing their borders to more refugees and other countries around the world are not offering Afghans visas to enter.

I mean it just absolutely makes no sense! The country that will hold the European Union hostage with energy just got the green light.

‘U.S. Sending 3,000 Troops Back Into Afghanistan Amid Rapidly Deteriorating Situation’
“Afghan government forces are collapsing even faster than U.S. military leaders thought possible just a few months ago when President Joe Biden ordered a full withdrawal,” The Associated Press reported. “The Taliban, who ruled the country from 1996 until U.S. forces invaded after the 9/11 attacks, captured three more provincial capitals Wednesday and two on Thursday, the 10th and 11th the insurgents have taken in a weeklong sweep that has given them effective control of about two-thirds of the country.”
Biden stated last month that it was “not inevitable” that the Taliban would take over the country once the U.S. left. Biden further claimed that “the likelihood there’s going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely.”

“The officials complained that Trump only left them with 3,000 troops in Afghanistan, forcing them to withdraw because there was no way to keep the peace with such a small force, according to the report.
There was an early peace in Afghanistan, team Biden argued, only because Trump agreed to leave on May 1.
That was an argument that White House press secretary Jen Psaki used in July, noting Biden believed the Taliban “would have been shooting at U.S. troops again after May 1.”
“The withdrawal deadline negotiated by the previous administration kind of set that timeline,” she said.
Biden first chose to extend the deadline for troop withdrawals to September 11, but in July he moved up the timeline to August 31.
Biden also insisted in July that the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan was “not inevitable” in an exchange with reporters.”

And on the voting monkey business front,
“During Mike Lindell’s Cyber Symposium, there were several pieces of information being exposed, including breaking news about Dominion Voting Systems employees working within a voter registration office.
While Ron Watkins, a noted cyber specialist also known as CodeMonkeyZ, was working on cracking the Mesa County, Colorado voting system database, cybersecurity expert Mark Cook interrupted the event to reveal some breaking news.
“It was just discovered that two Dominion employees work at the Sacramento County voter registrar office. Why would Dominion employees be working at one of our voter offices? It was confirmed at a Board of Supervisor meeting,” Cook stated.
Dominion Voting Systems was just supposed to build and provide the machines to conduct elections, they were never supposed to be working inside the election system and should never have access to voter registration rolls. It is a clear conflict of interest, yet the Democrats in Sacramento County could care less. What is really going on?
More information was exposed during this symposium, including the revelation that Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters’ office was raided “in an intimidation effort by George Soros groomed Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold,” according to reporting from The Gateway Pundit.
“Just yesterday I got an order from the Secretary of State that she was going to invade my elections department today,” Peters said. “And guess what, when I was on a plane to come to see you kind folks and to talk to you out there, guess what they did. They provided a search warrant and raided my office.”
“We don’t know what they were doing in there, because for several hours they wouldn’t let my chief deputy clerk, who was the acting clerk of Mesa County when I’m absent, wouldn’t even let her observe what the secretary of state and Dominion were doing in my office,” she continued.
“She has come into my office several times already in the last two years since I’ve been the elected official,” Peters added. “Because I am a Republican, I’m a conservative and she’s not. And she weaponizes her position to attack people that disagree with her.””

Evne’n Brother Bill.
Gota love those LIB successes.
All the guns and ammo Biden just supplied to the Taliban.
I’m sure he gave the order to leave the keys in all the trucks as well.
Saigon 2.0!
I don’t even care at this point. If those people can’t defend their own country it’s on them.
It’s the BS. that Biden is spewing that’s the real news.

Is cnn taking lessons from the ponytail of ignorance –
CNN accused of ‘fear porn’ for hyping story of Broward County teachers dead from COVID without key context
Critics blasted CNN’s ‘absurd framing’ of the story on social media
The “New Day” co-host then hyped the standoff between Broward County and Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, suggesting his ban of mask mandates could lead to such deaths.
“Since August 1st, we’re told Broward County employees had 108 employees test positive,” Berman added.
“That is a stunning number,” CNN anchor Brianna Keilar reacted. “This is obviously going to be met with a lot of grief in that community, and it’s showing the cost of COVID there, especially for the unvaccinated.”
“In one day,” Berman stressed. “And this is the context with which these officials in Broward County are asking for the freedom to make the decisions that they think they think are right for their schools.”
“Yeah, to protect not just the kids, right, but the teachers as well,” Keilar replied.
However, the crucial fact missing from CNN’s on-air reporting was that schools in Broward County don’t start until next week, meaning the teachers who died did not contract the virus in the classroom.
“In a 24-hour period, four educators in Broward County, Florida, died from Covid-19 related complications, officials said,” CNN wrote in the now-deleted tweet. “At least three were unvaccinated, a teacher’s union president said. The vaccination status of the fourth isn’t yet known.”
“Trash reporting from CNN somehow (oopsie!) fails to mention schools in Broward County have yet to open. Garbage. Shameful silence from the rest of the media,” New York Post columnist Karol Markowicz reacted.
“This is an absurd framing,” Fourth Watch media critic Steve Krakauer wrote. “Broward county schools are not open until next week. You could say this about any occupation. It has absolutely nothing to do with them being ‘teachers’ or about what schools should do regarding masks, vaccines or anything else.”
“This stat is reported with the context that Florida’s state government opposes mandatory masking of children. But schools in Broward county are on summer break. The teachers didn’t get covid-19 in schools from kids. Their status as teachers isn’t relevant…” journalist Zaid Jilani similarly tweeted.
