Is Jonathan Rinderknecht a Scapegoat for the Pacific Palisades Inferno?

Make no mistake. America is already involved in a Second Civil War.

The radical left is not some quirky political movement. It is a serious domestic threat. We can sit back, do nothing and hope their street thugs do not burn down more cities, or we can stop these wannabe Communists cold before they drag the country into more chaos. Military veterans and retired cops, it is time to wake up. Train your neighbors. Build plans. Be ready to back up federal, state, and local law enforcement when the chaos spills over. For now, rules of engagement stay defensive, but do not kid yourself. The threat will escalate, and when it does, the rules will change fast. What happened in Chicago yesterday was disgraceful. Police Superintendent Larry Snelling and Mayor Brandon Johnson let ICE agents come under deadly attack and blocked officers from helping. That is not leadership. That is betrayal. If Chicago police won’t keep the peace in protecting federal agents, then citizens who value law and order must be ready to step in and keep those agents alive by whatever me...

Tilly Norwood is just the beginning. AI is about to kill some jobs and make others.

Meet Tilly Norwood, the “it girl” of a future that does not need real people. She is gorgeous, ageless, and built entirely out of code. Her voice is flawless, her accent charming, her face camera ready every hour of the day. She can sing, dance, act, and never ask for a trailer upgrade or a bigger paycheck. She is the new triple threat and she does not even need lunch breaks. Artificial intelligence can already replace every television news anchor. Reporters are harder to swap out for now. Remember Max Headroom? That rubber faced, stuttering digital host was a clumsy first try at replacing human broadcasters. Today’s AI anchors look real, sound real, and can read a teleprompter without blinking, sneezing, or getting a name wrong. Sure, we like to see emotion when breaking news hits, like when Walter Cronkite removed his glasses and wiped away tears announcing JFK’s assassination. But do not kid yourself. AI can fake that perfectly. Programmers already know how to code sadness, outrage...

The United Nations has spent eight decades proving it is little more than an expensive cocktail party with flags.

Since its grand debut nearly 80 years ago, the UN has racked up a spectacular record of failure in its supposed core mission: peacekeeping. Wars keep happening, genocide keeps happening, and dictators still strut across its stage pretending to care. Meanwhile, American taxpayers fork over at least $4 billion a year to keep this diplomatic retirement home running. For what? A bunch of overpaid bureaucrats lounging in prime Manhattan real estate while accomplishing exactly nothing. The UN began with noble intentions. But if phone calls between world leaders achieve just as much, and they do, why keep bankrolling this total shit show? Its presence today is purely symbolic, a costly monument to global inaction. The New York headquarters is crammed with career diplomats wasting oxygen and congratulating each other for meaningless resolutions. It is long past time to take the grown up step: pack up their fancy offices, hand them their eviction notice, and let someone else host the most ...

Renting a Car Can Cost You Your Freedom

Renting a car sounds innocent enough, right? You show your license, sign the paperwork, and drive away thinking you’re just borrowing a car, not a set of felony charges. Wrong. Welcome to the modern clown show of rental car companies. I recently had a case where a client was charged with stealing a car from Avis. He thought it was a brilliant idea to represent himself. Newsflash: representing yourself in court is like doing your own brain surgery. It is messy, painful, and almost always ends badly. This nonsense isn’t new. Remember Hertz? I somehow recalled a little “oops” moment where they reported cars stolen that were, in fact, rented. One poor guy, just a tourist in Vegas, got the full Las Vegas moment sans the wedding chapel ceremony. Instead of meeting Elvis he met Cops at gunpoint, face in the asphalt and a vacation memory he’ll never forget! I decided to dig deeper using ChatGPT, and what I found was staggering. This wasn’t one mistake. It was practically company policy. Cleric...

I almost stumbled into political entertainment thanks to Bill Maher. And thank God I didn’t.

Bill Maher, the master of smug smirks, built a career out of mocking conservatives while sprinkling just enough insults at liberals to look “balanced.” His crown jewel was Politically Incorrect, which was pitched as bold, edgy television but usually looked like a bad dinner party where washed-up celebrities pretended to know politics. The hook? Toss in a few “ordinary people” to make the stars look smart by comparison. Enter me. Maher held auditions in Phoenix, probably because he needed fresh meat far enough from Hollywood that the poor saps like me would work cheap. I showed up, gave my best, and actually made the cut as a finalist. That’s right, I was this close to being the civilian circus act next to D-list celebrities debating topics they’d Googled in the limo. Then ABC axed the show. Just like that, my fifteen minutes of fame evaporated. Later, I ran into Maher at a Hollywood party, where we clinked glasses and lamented the cancellation. He looked annoyed his platform was gone...

The truth about Charlie Kirk?

Most of the political left never had the slightest clue about Charlie Kirk. Their “knowledge” came from hearsay passed around like gossip in a high school cafeteria. Forget actually watching one of his debates, that would require effort. No, the marching orders were simple: he’s conservative, slap on the “extremist” label, and call it a day. Then came Kirk’s murder and today’s memorial service, and millions of people got their first real look at Charlie Kirk. And guess what? They saw a man who was not only decent but downright admirable. That sound you hear is Democrat voters slowly realizing they’ve been conned, gaslit, and flat-out lied to by the so-called “influencers” of their party. I say influencers because let’s be honest, the Democrats don’t have leaders. They’ve got professional whiners with Twitter accounts and zero popularity outside their little echo chamber. The Democrats are choking on their own rot. They need a fresh young leader without the stench of corruption or the ...
