Some "media activists" have been denied credentials to enter the "Sunshine Summit" in Florida this weekend, where Republican primary debates will be held.

These leftwing media activists were Big Mad about that.

DeSantis' social media director showed them great sympathy:

It has come to my attention that some liberal media activists are mad because they aren't allowed into #SunshineSummit this weekend. My message to them is to try crying about it. Then go to kickboxing and have a margarita. And write the same hit piece you were gonna write anyway.

"Wellness influencer" spotlighted by Tim Dillon, at TikTok. I'm 99.99% sure that this is a joke. However, it is a joke which is strongly rooted in reality. She is parodying other wellness influencers that are quite serious about this nonsense.

Tom Elliot's Grabien media suspended again by Twitter, for correctly reporting a Congressman's statement that the covid vaccine may reduce natural immunity.

Joe Manchin has covid and the left is gloating:

Senator Joe Manchin @Sen_JoeManchin

This morning I tested positive for COVID-19. I am fully vaccinated and boosted and am experiencing mild symptoms. I will isolate and follow CDC guidelines as I continue to work remotely to serve West Virginians.

Absolute leftwing tool Jonathan Karl praises Al Gore for his, get this, "graciousness" in conceding the 2000 election after the Supreme Court told him that he had lost and was a loser and would always be a loser and should give up so at least he could win at quitting.

Oh, and then he continued challenging the election results and claiming he actually won the election after he "conceded" so graciously.

The Capitol Police report that the "Colbert 9" were more insurrectioney than the Gestapo at the DOJ allows.

Stephen Colbert's comedy crew was warned "several times" it could not trespass on Capitol grounds, and its behavior in a congressional office building during an unauthorized nighttime visit was so boisterous it caused a Democratic congressman's staff to fear for his safety and call for emergency help, police say.

The description that authorities provided members of Congress this week -- loud banging on doors, talk of a "cocaine orgy" and threats to place something under a congressman's door -- is far different than the light-hearted account of "first-degree puppetry" that the CBS television comic offered after last month's high-profile arrest of his team.

The decision by the Biden Justice Department to decline prosecution of nine Colbert staffers for unlawful entry clearly upset the department, according to an official letter from the department's chief obtained by Just the News.

"It is unfortunate that despite all of the evidence the Department presented, including that the group or its leader had been told several times that they could not be in the buildings without an escort, that the U.S. Attorney's office declined to prosecute any members of the group for Unlawful Entry," Capitol Police Chief Thomas Manger wrote Republican Reps. Rodney Davis of Illinois and Jim Jordan of Ohio in a letter dated Tuesday.

Manger revealed in the letter that the nine members of Colbert's staff who were arrested June 16 for unauthorized access to a House office building had previously been rejected for press credentials by the House Radio/TV Gallery, had been warned multiple times they could not stay in Capitol buildings without an escort, and were ejected by police from the complex just hours before their arrest for violating building rules.

The chief also revealed that two of the nine staffers when arrested refused to cooperate, citing their Miranda rights, and that one of the staffers initially falsely told responding police officers the Colbert crew was "credentialed staff."

Can we, seriously, get a cognitive function test for Bill Kristol?

Which of the Junior Grifting Swabbies takes over at his various grifting organizations if Cap'n Kristol found to be not be mentally capable of running a grift? Jim Swift? Jonathan V. Last? Tim Miller?

Speaking of, the people who said their Sacred Honor compelled them to begin grifting money from Democrats and supporting Democrats for president and Congress in order to restore our Precious Civil Norms are increasingly brazen about just wishing death upon Trump.

Including the noted Norms-Guardian AllahPundit, who is also Hot Air's official Bulwark-Linker.

I hope these people will review their six years of endless shrieking sanctimony about norms.

I also hope their won't be any further sanctimony about "Muh Normzzzz" if we should happen to similarly wish death upon people we don't like. Or fail to show sufficient sadness if someone we don't like dies.

Lightning struck a wind turbine in north Texas.
