Dead Cops. Encouraged by craven politicians, protesters demanded dead cops, and now they have two in New York City. After warning the world, “I’m putting wings on pigs today” via Instagram, a criminal assassinated two NYPD officers as they sat in their car, killing himself in the subway minutes later as police closed in. Dead are officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos. ‘Protesters’ took to Twitter to celebrate the shooting, ‘protesters’ in Ferguson, Missouri took to the streets shouting ‘pigs in blankets’. The head of the Police Union in New York said there was blood on “many people’s hands, and those that incited violence on the streets under the guise of protests , that tried to tear down what New York City Police Officers did every day. We tried to warn, it must not go on, it cannot be tolerated. That blood on the hands starts at the steps of City Hall”. As New York Mayor Bill De Blasio arrived at the hospital where the dead officers were taken, police turned their backs on him … an extraordinary gesture. Even Al Sharpton seemed confused as he issued a statement condemning violence and expressing sorrow at the murder of two police, apparently oblivious to the fact that protesters at one of his rallies recently chanted, “What do we want? Dead Cops! When do we want it? Now!”. Well protesters, be careful what you pray for. The upshot of all this? One of the reasons protests have been orchestrated by the left recently is they’re losing. They’re losing the house and senate, they’re losing governorships and state houses all over the country, as Americans move to the right. Now, by advocating killing cops, they’re losing the people. More importantly, most of the progressive policy ‘victories’ in past years are failures. Obamacare remains unpopular. While progressives gained power saying government would help people, the people do not think it is fair, or trust it. Despite three intense years of effort to control firearms, Americans continue to support the 2nd amendment, as carry laws spread to Washington DC and even Chicago; and the courts uphold them. Americans do not support legislation on Climate Change, and continue to believe the economy is not recovering. The media’s credibility is in a shambles after the Rolling Stone’s debacle on campus rape as is the President’s attempt to federalize sexual harassment rules on campus. The murder of these two NYPD officers will only increase support for law enforcement. People who think the country won’t survive two more years of President Obama should take note — and heart — that the progressive left is losing. They protest because its all they know how to do when they lose, and their policies fail. Pour it on. Sponsored by X Government Cars

Cliven Bundy’s comments have shifted the stand off in Nevada from Government Overreach to Cliven Bundy and Racism. Have you heard the entire tape of Bundy’s comments? You’ll hear it in this podcast. What was Bundy saying, or asking? Is it a conversation we should all be having? The question of whether transfer payments from the Federal Government, in the form of welfare, tax credits and subsidies erodes our freedom. Also in this podcast, the Q & A session from the West Metro Tea Party Speech recently, in which I address conspiracy theories. I would have posted this podcast Saturday morning, but destroyed it with a keystroke! So, this is a rare daytime podcast from the broadcast bunker.

Stories. Spring Rains. A warm rain on Saturday night triggers my memories as I podcast live from the deck, for the first time in 2014. It’s about time. Some of the stories that have been floating around from last week and this weekend, and some story lines to look for in the coming week. Whether you are flying back from Easter with the family, on your walk, or the commute, if you live in the upper midwest, it’s nice to hear and to feel the warm rain of Spring! The Light Rail may derail MPR Bob, who is concerned the ‘vibrations’ may scuttle his ‘audio’. Restaurants in Minneapolis are so loud, how long do you think it will be before they pass an ordinance requiring establishments to have earplugs available for patrons. (Minneapolis has already done this with music venues). Plus, biometric gun bracelets by executive order, food inflation, job ‘scarcity’, the end of the world and more!
