Diners in New York City braved plunging temperatures and racing winds to eat and drink outdoors as a powerful nor’easter rolled across the East Coast Wednesday night – bringing with it several inches of snow.
Mayor Bill de Blasio had urged inhabitants of the Big Apple to hunker down and brace themselves for what could be the ‘worst snow storm in several years’.
But clearly the warning wasn’t heeded by all, with bundled up diners seen chowing down on entrees and sipping cocktails on sidewalks across the city as Winter Storm Gail roared on.
The ATF has officially gone rogue.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives raided a Dayton-based gun manufacturing company, Polymer80, on Dec. 10.
Polymer80 is suspected of manufacturing and selling illegal firearms, failing to properly pay taxes, shipping firearms to customers in different states and failing to conduct background checks on customers who want to purchase a firearm, according to an affidavit filed in U.S District Court by ATF Special Agent Tolliver Hart on Dec. 9.
Polymer80 sells a product called the “Buy Build Shoot” kit which includes all the necessary parts to build a functioning firearm. ATF agents purchased several kits and had them delivered to California, according to the affidavit.
These guns, which do not have a licensing serial number or manufacturer’s mark, are referred to as “ghost guns”.

The Energy Department and National Nuclear Security Administration, which maintains the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile, have evidence that hackers accessed their networks as part of an extensive espionage operation that has affected at least half a dozen federal agencies, officials directly familiar with the matter said.
On Thursday, DOE and NNSA officials began coordinating notifications about the breach to their congressional oversight bodies after being briefed by Rocky Campione, the chief information officer at DOE.

More than 300 Nigerian school boys have been released after the terrorist group Boko Haram claimed it kidnapped them last week, officials said.
Aminu Bello Masari, the governor of of Katsina state in northern Nigeria, said Thursday that a total of 344 boys were freed, and were on their way back to Katsina to be medically examined and reunited with their families the next day, Reuters reported.
“We have recovered most of the boys,” Masari told the outlet. “It’s not all of them.”
The BBC cited a security source telling the AFP news agency that some of the boys were still being held by their captors.
Screw you ugly.

Dr. Anthony Fauci said he and his wife will not be spending Christmas with family this year and advised other American families to follow his example.
“I’m going to be with my wife — period,” Fauci told The Washington Post on Monday regarding his holiday plans. “The Christmas holiday is a special holiday for us because Christmas Eve is my birthday. And Christmas Day is Christmas Day. And [my daughters] are not going to come home … That’s painful. We don’t like that. But that’s just one of the things you’re going to have to accept as we go through this unprecedented challenging time.”

Jen O’Malley Dillon, President-elect Joe Biden’s campaign manager and incoming White House deputy chief of staff, walked back comments she made in a recent interview suggesting that congressional Republicans were “a bunch of f—ers.”
The mea culpa came in a virtual conversation Thursday with veteran Democratic operatives Stephanie Cutter and Teddy Goff, during which O’Malley Dillon acknowledged she “used some words that I probably could have chosen better” when speaking with author Glennon Doyle for a Glamour magazine interview published Tuesday.
In that interview, O’Malley Dillon recalled the blowback Biden faced from fellow Democrats throughout the party’s 2020 nominating contest for invoking a bygone era of Washington bipartisanship which many progressives viewed as unrealistic and outdated.

Jean-Luc Brunel, a French modeling agent and close ally and alleged pimp to late sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein, is in custody in Paris after attempting to board a flight to Dakar in Senegal. Paris prosecutors say he was taken into custody for rape, sexual assault against minors, sexual harassment, criminal conspiracy and trafficking in human beings, according to Le Parisien newspaper.

The posh Napa Valley restaurant that hosted a dinner party last month that landed California Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom in hot water reportedly received millions in COVID-19 relief funds.
KGO News’ investigative unit, the I-Team, reports, “Yountville’s highly acclaimed French Laundry received multiple loans through the Paycheck Protection Program, totaling more than $2.4 million, according to an ABC7 analysis of newly-released data from the Small Business Administration.”
The loans were disbursed by SBA-certified lenders earlier this year to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their employees on the payroll during the pandemic-induced recession.
Yet more evidence of what I’ve been saying since November. No one actually thinks Biden won. They just think that to overturn it, to uncover the Democrats deceit would upturn the whole country and that to them, is worse than letting a cheater prevail.

Holy crap! This broad is nuttier than a fruitcake.
WHERE IS THE GLOBAL WARMING?!
Via NY Post:
Residents of Binghamton posted wild images of snow burying the upstate city, after Winter Storm Gail dumped more than three feet of powder in the region.
The Southern Tier city had been walloped with 41 inches of snow as of 8:40 a.m. Thursday, according to a National Weather Service update.
One video posted to Twitter shows cars nearly completely covered in snow.
One resident tweeted the more-than-waist-high pile of powder that greeted her when she opened the door.
Another photo captures a man submerged as he walks to the town around 2 a.m.
Screw off.

Vice President Joe Biden often joked on the campaign trail about his wife’s lofty educational achievements. She had two master’s degrees and had already worked for nearly a quarter-century as a college community instructor. But he had a better idea.
“Why don’t you go out and get a doctorate and make us some real money?” he said he told her. (That was always good for a laugh, especially in university towns.)
In 2007, at 55, Jill Biden did earn a doctorate — in education, from the University of Delaware. Since then, in campaign news releases and now in White House announcements, she is “Dr. Jill Biden.” This strikes some people as perfectly appropriate and others as slightly pompous, a quality often ascribed to her voluble husband.
Last week, the White House announced that Jill Biden had returned to the classroom — thought by some who study the presidency and vice presidency to be a historical first. She is teaching two courses at Northern Virginia Community College, the second-largest community college in the U.S. She began her new job before last month’s inauguration; the announcement was delayed out of respect for that event.

The recall effort against California Gov. Gavin Newsom over the coronavirus restrictions he imposed on his state’s residents and his own apparent violation of the safety measures at a restaurant last month are gaining steam, The Hill reported Monday.
Although the Democrat was generally praised earlier this year for shutting down much of the state in an attempt to contain the coronavirus pandemic, his recent orders reimposing extensive closures have generated backlash.
AP reported the campaign to recall Newsom, which would necessitate a special gubernatorial election, has already collected about half of the 1.5 million signatures needed by March.

CUYAHOGA COUNTY, Ohio — Suicide is now the leading cause of death for children ages 10 to 14 in Ohio, according to a report from the Ohio Department of Health about suicide in Ohio.
The report, which highlights an increasing number of suicides across different age groups in Ohio, also notes that suicides are the second leading cause of death for young people ages 15 to 34.

Heh, peace. Which means we give them back Afghanistan and they go back to using the country to make drugs and hide terrorists.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — The top U.S. general held unannounced talks with Taliban peace negotiators in the Persian Gulf to urge a reduction in violence across Afghanistan, even as senior American officials in Kabul warned that stepped-up Taliban attacks endanger the militant group’s nascent peace negotiations with the Afghan government.
Army Gen. Mark A. Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, met for about two hours with Taliban negotiators in Doha, Qatar, on Tuesday and flew Wednesday to Kabul to discuss the peace process with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani.
