THE MORNING RANT

My apologies, but I’m traveling, so I have no exploding EVs nor rants about Principled Free Traders
today. Not even an upright bass. But here’s a little filler until Ace gets here:

Wisconsin Democrats provided some comic relief with this since-deleted post they put up to celebrate National Dairy Month. What’s hilarious is that while we reality-based people were mocking the Democrats for putting up a picture of bulls, it is 100% consistent with where Democrats stand on issues:

• Democrats are completely oblivious about agriculture.

• Since Democrats believe that cross-dressing men have menstrual cycles and can lactate, it is entirely consistent for Dems to believe that trans-cows (e.g. bulls) can be milked.

My wife and I had a guilty pleasure for several years of watching “Live PD” and its successor “On Patrol Live.” The encounters with “sovereign citizen” were especially entertaining. Sovereign citizens think of themselves as a being a country unto themselves, or something like that, and they expect those they encounter to play along in their make-believe world.

While watching police interact with sovereign citizens, I occasionally made the observation that the entire “they/them” thing is very similar. If someone wants to look in the mirror and believe that he is the sovereign ruler of the Republic of 2914 Birchwood Street, more power to him. Just like a dude can put on women’s clothes, look in the mirror, and pretend there’s a woman staring back at him. But the rest of us don’t have to play along.

If you’ve never seen a police encounter with a “sovereign citizen,” here’s an entertaining one that is not too long.
