A man committed a truly demonic act -- he buried his infant son alive, inside a dog crate.

But people, possibly with some subtle direction from God, found the baby before he died.

Authorities in South Carolina managed to locate 11-month-old Koah Sharpe alive after he was allegedly buried in a dog crate by his father, Michael Comer. According to Global News, Comer had Sharpe on Monday when the infant was reported missing following Comer's arrest by the Lexington County Sheriff's Department. Comer was taken into custody on a burglary charge and for resisting arrest Monday night; Koah Sharpe was not with Comer when police apprehended him.

Early Tuesday afternoon, a search party located Koah Sharpe in the woods near Comer's father's home, where they noticed freshly disturbed earth. Sharpe was reportedly crying when authorities dug up the dog crate he was buried in. It had been covered with a towel, which created an air pocket that allowed the infant to survive about 24 hours underground.

I wonder if the father will plead postpartum psychosis and gather an army of cult supporters behind him.

Kurt Schlichter: The state GOP parties in Red States got fat and complacent about winning without even trying, and that laziness destroyed them this election cycle.

There's no one fatter and lazier than a deep red state's Republican organization, with few exceptions, and this bit us badly on the butt last week. Now, California is not a red state -- not anymore, though it was when I grew up there -- but this little story kind of sums up the problem with Republican organizations. They aren't about winning; they are social clubs. I was at some GOP event and sat down for rubber chicken next to somebody who proudly announced he was the Republican chair of, say, the 69th District and had been for 20 years. I asked him when the last time a Republican won in the 69th District was, and he looked at me like I was insane, like it never occurred to him that electing people might be a remotely relevant consideration for a district chair. The answer, of course, was "Never." The Republicans had never won it. But he had his gig, a nice seat on the dais, and that was what mattered. Not victory. Just his place in the social club that is the California Republican Party.

In the red states, we got too used to winning easily. Far too used to it. We got so used to winning that it never occurred to us that we might not win, and it never occurred to us that we might have to work to win.

Apparently, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez's call to round up the "criminals" in Washington includes the conservative justices: "I mean, of course, this Supreme Court as well has also kind of legalized a lot of his criminality." The Democrats are fast becoming a party of berserkers...

...Of course, the impeachment standard is actually not
"kind of legalizing" stuff, but it is no worse than the understanding of her other colleagues of the standard...

...This pack and the pen approach would expand the Court with an instant liberal majority while potentially removing conservatives through criminal charges.

Rep. Tom Emmer says he doubts Ilhan Nur Said Elmi will be in Congress much longer.

I do not believe this at all, but I like the optimism.

"She lied because you get naturalized as a citizen with your natural parent when they are naturalized, if you are under the age of 18. Well, she was not under the age of 18," Emmer said.

Emmer argued that the citizenship question offers a cleaner route than any criminal case. "She would have to reapply to be a citizen -- it's an administrative procedure. She shouldn't be in Congress," he told Finnerty.

Any indictment, according to Emmer, is a separate matter that "will go through in court."

"Once it's established that she was over the age of 18 when she claimed to be a minor, she's no longer a citizen of the United States. And when she's no longer a citizen, she's not entitled to serve in Congress," he added.

Pressed on who would confirm her actual birth date, Emmer said, "I think the Department of Justice is finalizing that." He noted that "there are four different things that are being looked at, and that is one of them."

Via Ed Morrissey: it sure looks like the ugliest man in US history to think he has a realistic chance to be president got tipped by investigators that Nvidia might face an intelligence probe, then he and his wife (who he married for her heiress-money) dumped their Nvidia stock.

Trade With Congress @tradewithcong

Well, well, well

Rep. Ro Khanna sold $NVDA right before Nvidia's CEO admitted to having a Chinese spy side piece

He's a member of the following:

- Strategic Competition between the U.S. and the Chinese Communist Party Committee
- Taiwan Caucus
- High Tech Caucus

Apparently, federal agents informed some lawmakers last year that Jensen Huang might be the target of a foreign intelligence operation

He avoided a ~26% dip

The ugliest man in American history to mistakenly believe he could be president crusades against "corruption" and also claims he is against congressmen trading in individual stocks.
