The decade following the 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary has proved that the Republican Party’s infatuation with guns is stronger than any reservations it may have about children being slaughtered. Conservative gun worship has been reaffirmed in the wake of shooting after shooting, and it shouldn’t be surprising that after at least 21 people, including at least 19 children, were killed in Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday by a teenager who bought two assault rifles shortly after his 18th birthday, Republican politicians and right-wing media chose guns over the nation’s children.

Fox News’ Sean Hannity railed against the Federal Aviation Administration’s grounding of a Fox News drone at the Texas-Mexico border.
“The Faa is being used to cover up for [President Joe Biden’s] failures,” the primetime host said, “and are we going to let that stand? I don’t think so.”
Hannity pointed to footage that aired Wednesday night of what appeared to be thousands of undocumented immigrants and asylum seekers under the Acuna International Bridge in Del Rio. Hannity and Bill Melugin said that the drone grounding came after Fox News aired the footage. The Faa, Hannity told his substantial 9 p.m. Et audience, is “trying to prevent Fox’s drone from showing you, the American people, the truth and capturing images just like this.”
Hannity also railed against Vice President Kamala Harris, who serves as border czar, suggesting she is not taking her role at the border seriously or giving it much time.

Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Dept. deputies are leaving things to the health department when it comes to enforcing new stay-at-home orders.
New mandates go into effect tonight at 11:59 Pm, as Gov. Gavin Newsom has issued orders he hopes will stem the increasing number of Covid-19 cases and free up intensive care unit spaces, which are being crowded by new victims of the coronavirus. The new rules curtail business capacities and suggest that no one leave their homes except for essential trips to buy food or seek medical attention.
LA County Sheriff Alex Villanueva said enforcement at businesses was not their job.
“I want to stay away from businesses that are trying to comply the best they can,” Villanueva said.”They bent over backwards to modify their entire operation to conform to these current health orders, and then they have the rug yanked out from under them, that’s a disservice.

Both sides of the 101 Freeway were blocked on Wednesday night by protesters condemning the death of George Floyd, a Minneapolis man who died Monday while in police custody in that city.
Crowds gathered earlier in downtown to rail against Floyd’s treatment, organized by the Black Lives Matter movement, who tweeted out details on where to meet.
Floyd, an African American man, was pinned to the street in Minnesota by the knee of a police officer during his arrest. Despite his protests that he couldn’t breathe, he was continually restrained in the position, and subsequently died.
Police claim he resisted arrest, but subsequent video seemed to belie that. The four Minneapolis police officers involved in that incident were fired and face criminal charges in Floyd’s death.
Los Angeles protesters blocked the freeway and reports indicate at least one person has been injured. A patrol car had its windows smashed.
