Violent Street Takeovers as Civilization Collapses in Los Angeles

Public order has disintegrated in Karen Bass’s Los Angeles:

KTLA reports on the multiple street takeovers that happened Saturday night:

[V]ideo shows fireworks exploding and a fire being set on the street at the takeover that took place on the border of Wilmington and Carson. …

Aerial footage from the takeover at Manchester and San Pedro shows a car doing a burnout and seemingly losing control, nearly colliding with multiple onlookers. Seconds later, fireworks went off as other cars drove into the intersection and started doing donuts.

The punks tried to set a car on fire.

Meanwhile, on the border of Manhattan Beach and El Segundo,

Some participants stood in the middle of a circle of fire as a pair of cars did burnouts around them and other onlookers shined lasers and flashing lights, according to cellphone footage.

Unsurprisingly, the absence of public order is getting people hurt:

[G]unfire erupted near the takeover, which was said to have been taking place at the intersection of Compton Avenue and Imperial Highway, around 5:16 a.m.

A gunshot victim was rushed to the hospital in critical condition.

It was not clear whether any arrests were made in relation to the shooting — or any of the other street takeovers.

Meanwhile, “teens” were also at play in Brandon Johnson’s Chicago.

Compliments of moonbattery and diversity, America’s last days may already be upon our largest cities.

What Moonbattery Hath Wrought: Jarrett Vick

Bodycam video allows us to see what happens when an LEO fails to refer to a transgender college student by his erroneous preferred pronouns:

From the New York Post:

The footage shows a blue-haired University of Central Florida student, identified as 27-year-old Jarrett Vick, screaming at a police officer after the cop arrived at a campus building for an unrelated call.

The video was taken last year but released last Friday.

Vick, of Treasure Island, Florida, was charged with battery on law enforcement, resisting arrest, and disorderly conduct on Feb. 5, 2025, according to court records.

Imagine what they have been teaching him in his classes. Moonbattery is creating a generation of spoilt, entitled psychopathic brats.

“Inmate” Struck From Newspeak Dictionary

Criminals rank prominently among the identity groups liberals are most eager to pander to. Last Wednesday, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani even watched a soccer game at Rikers Island to demonstrate solidarity with the inmates. Hold on; I’m not supposed to say “inmates.” That word might stigmatize.

The New York Post reports:

New York City’s jails watchdog is set to go woke — scrapping the words “inmate” and “inmates” from its rule book and replacing them with “people in custody” or “person in custody.”

The proposed rule change for the Board of Correction swaps the words “inmate” or “inmates” with “people in custody” or “person in custody” more than 300 times.

Criminal justice advocates claim that “inmates” a derogatory term for incarcerated criminal defendants or convicts.

By “criminal justice advocates,” they mean “criminal advocates.”

It’s not just the Board of Correction:

Gov. Kathy Hochul approved a law in 2022 that strikes the word “inmate” in state law, replacing it with “incarcerated individual.”

A press release from Hochul proclaimed that the words “felon, inmate, prisoner, and convict dehumanize individuals and perpetuate the idea that incarcerated people should be permanently demonized and stigmatized.”

Next after destigmatization comes elevation. The loftiest status in a society run by liberals is that of victim. Soon “person in custody” and “incarcerated individual” will be replaced by “person oppressed by our fundamentally racist system of injustice.” It rolls right off the tongue.

Anti-Theft Devices Now Required on Meat

As the popularity of socialism rises, shoplifting also becomes more popular. In California, where shoplifting is effectively legal, anti-theft devices are required even on hamburger.

The New York Post reports:

A San Jose Walmart has reportedly taken anti-theft measures to a new level, placing pricey cuts of beef and even packages of ground meat inside metal security cages to keep would-be shoplifters at bay.

Influencer Tony Bartleson — better known online as “Meatdad” — posted a video from inside the California store showing rib-eye steaks and ground beef wrapped in wire security devices.

Bartleson is a moonbat:

“My hope is that we can get to a point where measures like this aren’t necessary anymore—where people don’t have to steal just to eat, stores don’t have to lock up food, and everyone has reliable access to the necessities they need.”

“I think most of us want to live in a world where people can put food on the table with dignity, and I hope we continue moving in that direction,” he added.

Have the government do the stealing then pass out the food for free. That way there’s dignity.

No one is starving in this country. The something-for-nothing mentality and contempt for law enforcement and property rights have degraded society to the point that anything not properly secured will be stolen. The rest of us pay for it through inconvenience, closed stores, and higher prices.

Police Investigate Dead Body Found at Ayanna Pressley Property

Occasional incidents allow us intriguing glimpses into the lives of prominent Democrats like Ayanna Pressley. Via Mass Daily News:

A dead body was discovered Saturday afternoon on the grounds of a Mattapan property owned by the husband of U.S. Representative Ayanna Pressley, and Boston police have opened a death investigation at the address. …

A neighbor told the Globe that Saturday’s death investigation is not the first time Boston Police have been at the property in force. According to the neighbor, BPD officers raided the same house roughly two months ago — about a month before [her husband Conan] Harris and Pressley listed it for sale.

The property has been a lucrative investment:

The eight-bedroom, four-bath multi-family home, built in 1910, was purchased by Harris for $340,000 in 2021. It is currently listed for sale by Thumbprint Realty for $1.15 million, more than triple the purchase price four years ago. …

Federal financial disclosures show the 25 Malta Street property brought Harris and Pressley as much as $100,000 in rental income during 2025.

Their multiple other rental properties include one in liberal elite bastion Martha’s Vineyard listed at $1.1 million.

As the New York Post reminds us,

Pressley (D-Mass.) — who once camped out on the Capitol steps for taxpayer-funded rent relief — is a member of the far-left “Squad” on Capitol Hill.

Ayanna and her Squad comrades want to confiscate your money because you have too much.

Meanwhile, her 49-year-old husband previously spent 10 years in prison for drug trafficking.

Whatever has been going on at 25 Malta Street, it hasn’t been good.

Ashley Webb, Master of Deception

Whatever Democrats accuse their opponents of, they are likely doing themselves. Likewise, whatever they promise not to do, they are likely doing. An example is Ashley Webb, a Maine candidate for the US Senate, who says he menstruates out his rear end, and who when asked for qualifications stammered that he wouldn’t deceive anyone:

Ashley is actually a master of deception. He has even managed to get people to bestow female pronouns upon him:

Looks like the Democrats will hand the nomination to the even more frightening Troy Jackson instead. But Ashley might be able to deceive himself into believing he is a senator anyway.

Even Anti-2A Activists Admit Shootings Down With Gun Sales High

Sometimes social science is an actual science, in that objective laws can be discovered. An example: more guns, less gun violence. Even moonbats who want to disarm us will sometimes admit it.

Via Breitbart:

In a column dated July 15, 2026, The Trace noted: “Shooting deaths and injuries remain at historic lows in the United States, continuing the trend seen in Q1 and in recent years.”

The Trace is a journalism organization devoted to gun control.

The writer observed that shooting deaths and shooting injuries are at their “lowest number since 2015.”

Meanwhile,

The Trace quotes crime data analyst Jeff Asher pointing out that the decline in shooting deaths and injuries is occurring at a time when “the country is still awash in guns. Gun sales are still at elevated levels.”

Considering Black Lives Matter’s lasting effects on public safety and the threat of communists overthrowing the American system, it should come as no surprise that gun sales have been strong.

As the saying goes, an armed society is a polite society — that is to say, a safe society.

AOC: US Senate Founded on Jim Crow

Democratic Socialists of America are in the process of taking over the Democratic Party. Already they drive the agenda. Zohran Mamdani gets heavy coverage for what he is doing to New York City, but the DSA communist with the most power nationally is New York Congresswoman and top-tier presidential candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Her stature is supported by an understanding of American government and history that surpasses ours. Who but her knew that the US Senate is founded on Jim Crow?

The US Senate first convened in 1789. Jim Crow did not exist until after Reconstruction, which ended nearly a century later in 1877. But facts are irrelevant to postmodern leftists, who believe there to be no knowable truth, only lust for power.

It makes sense for AOC to believe the Senate was founded on Jim Crow, because everything leftists don’t like is regarded as racist, and they want to abolish the Senate for serving its purpose of preventing the excessive centralization of power.

Incidentally, AOC is likely to take Chuck Schumer’s Senate seat if she doesn’t run for President — an office that DSA also wants to abolish.
