If you want to follow my ass get a DADGUM warrant. You got caught now you want to fix it. # 4thAmendment
Every law enforcement search should have a clear purpose. By the end of the year, Flock will require case codes for all law enforcement searches. Emergency bypasses will remain available, with every bypass immediately flagged by Audit Assistance for administrative review.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Flock Safety added Audit Assistance, but they are NOT mandatory or in place: flocksafety.com/blog/flock-gua… See more: cnn.com/2026/08/13/tec… Flock systems are routinely abused: eff.org/deeplinks/2025… Police are often using Flock to stalk “love interests”: ij.org/police-have-re… Flock shares data without permission and in violation of several states laws: malwarebytes.com/blog/privacy/2…

Call your Congressman.
Republican Rep. Tim Burchett’s bill to ban Flock Cameras across the country is starting to gain support. Hopefully this passes.

Wow did you hear what those Republican congressmen said to that bad guy in the hearing? Lol man they really ripped him apart. It was so awesome. What’s that? Oh no the bad guy won’t be arrested or charged with any crime or suffer any consequences of any kind at all. No, there will be no follow up on the hearing, no relevant legislation passed in response to it, no changes of any kind made at all ever. But did you see that viral clip of that one senator? He even used a cuss word! A real cuss word! He’s so tough and brave. I’m so impressed. Aren’t you?

The Left spent years backing an entire generation of young men into a dark corner, telling them that masculinity is "toxic" and shameful. So, many of them latched onto the poison coming from Andrew and Tristan Tate because at least they were proud of their masculinity. Except... what they preached was not masculinity at all. They hijacked conservative rhetoric, put on a fake cloak of "traditionalism," and sold a generation of boys a twisted grift, teaching them that strength means flashing Bugattis and treating women like objects. That isn't conservatism. That is evil. Real masculinity is about protecting women. We cannot let grifters like this define manhood for our boys just because the Left tried to destroy it. It's time to go back to our fundamental truths and offer our sons real role models.

Tillis to Noem: "A 14 month old dog is basically a teenager in dog years. You decided to kill that dog because you hadn't invested the appropriate time and training, and then you have the audacity to go into a book and say it's a leadership lesson about tough choices! ... Those are bad decisions made in the heat of the moment, not unlike what happened in Minneapolis."

I can understand abstaining from alcohol if someone struggles with alcoholism, is trying to lose weight, has a religious dietary fast, has a sober straightedge job (air traffic controller) & some other reasons. But the biohackers & the secular puritans (killjoy was here) are really annoying, as they attempt to turn their personal peccadillos into status norms. Go be an ersatz 'monk' if you like, but I have no interest in your lame attempts to fill the god-shaped hole in your life with spreadsheet-brain sperging. You will die someday, just like every other bastard born. Life is about quality & intensity of experience, not quantity of time.
Losing alcohol has only been to society’s detriment. This is biological frailty masquerading as health optimization. The expression of vitality will always be high energy and with risk. To be human is to imbibe.

I joined @SecRollins + @AGPamBondi to fight animal cruelty—shutting down puppy mills and cutting unnecessary testing. A nation is judged by how it treats its animals, and this administration is delivering real accountability and reform.

If you’re too old to walk and continue having strokes in the middle of news conferences you have no business being in the senate. Get the fuck out. You’ve milked your position for far too long.
Sen. Mitch McConnell fell in the Russell basement, while being questioned my members of The Sunrise Movement, who took this video.

Denver Shooter: TRANS Aberdeen Shooter: TRANS Nashville Shooter: TRANS Philadelphia Shooter: TRANS Colorado Springs Shooter: Non-Binary Iowa Shooter: Gender Fluid Minneapolis Shooter: TRANS Charlie Kirk Shooter: TRANS-partner The TRANS ideology is demonic and creates deadly radicals. The legacy media knows this and pours kerosene on the Trans movement to create more radicals. They are partly to blame, as are the politicians like Tim Walz who puts tampons in the boys bathrooms. We must treat the TRANS ideology as domestic terrorism and route the entire ideology out of our country. I miss Charlie.

Exactly
Many people smugly point out that Charlie said gun deaths are unfortunately worth it to keep the 2nd Amendment. In the same breath, they’ll claim he was a fascist. Not only did they not read the full quote - they don’t realize: the 2nd Amendment is the defense against fascism.

BLM riots Antifa Church shootings Trump assassination attempt Charlie Kirk assassination Pro life pregnancy center fires Tesla vandalism Attacks against ICE agents Attacks against police Attacks against federal courthouses This is merely a partial list. Nearly ALL of the politically motivated violence in America is committed by one side. This is not a both sides thing. This is a one side thing.

Anyone else notice that when one of our heroes was assinated in cold blood if front of thousands of people including his wife and young kids that not a single store in America had to board up their windows? That tell us everything you need to know.
