So, with Buford Pusser being exposed very recently and the Warrens being exposed long ago, yet movies still being made that depict the latter two figures in a positive light, watching any of the many movies about all of them seems in bad taste now.
Y’know?
Seriously, their movies individually are cringe-inducing these days.
I can’t imagine how it would feel watching multiple movies about any of the three.
What an ugly state of affairs this has turned into. Continue reading

Here’s a Friday current events roundup from Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog.
PRESIDENT TRUMP TOUTS HIS STRENGTHENING OF SOCIAL SECURITY. He’s the greatest president for the working class and the poor during my lifetime.
IN OHIO, CHINESE NATIONALS AND COMPANIES INDICTED FOR NARCOTICS AND MONEY LAUNDERING CHARGES. Joe Biden was in China’s pocket, so he allowed such rings to grow, but thankfully they are now being shut down under Trump.
TRUMP ADMINISTRATION MAKES LARGEST EVER SEIZURE OF METHAMPHETAMINE CHEMICALS. More HERE. It was headed from China to the Sinaloa Cartel in Mexico. Any bets on when Democrat judges try blocking such crime fighting efforts?
BIDEN REGIME FBI NEW YORK HEAD EXPOSED FOR LEAKING INVESTIGATORY INFORMATION TO A CHINA COMPANY FUNNELING MONEY TO HUNTER BIDEN. The stain called the Biden Crime Family.
EVEN MORE DETAILS SURFACE ABOUT THE BIDEN REGIME’S AUTOPEN SCANDAL.
CRUZ ROASTS PRIVILEGED WHITE ILLINOIS GOVERNOR PRITZKER AS A “RACIST BIGOT” SHIELDING TRAFFICKERS.
FIVE CONGRESSIONAL REPUBLICANS JOIN DEMOCRATS IN BLOCKING CENSURE OF DEMOCRAT MEMBER FOR ATTACKING IMMIGRATION OFFICERS. Corrupt politicians from both parties still work to hinder the administration.
ASRA NOMANI COURAGEOUSLY COVERS THEFTS AND MORE BY DEMOCRAT WOMAN TIED TO SPANBERGER CAMPAIGN. Spanberger is running for VA governor on a promise to turn Virginia into a “Sanctuary State.”
Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog serves up a mid-week current events roundup.
Democrat Party
DEMOCRAT COUNTY COMMISSIONER IN PENNSYLVANIA ARRESTED IN MAJOR DRUG BUST.
DEMOCRAT CONGRESSWOMAN ILHAN OMAR’S NET WORTH JUMPED FROM FIFTY-ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS TO THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS IN JUST ONE YEAR. More HERE. And HERE. Looks like she’s using the Pelosi Method of throwing a spouse into the mix. Remember all the uproar years ago about having Trump reveal several years’ worth of tax returns? How about such scrutiny regarding ALL elected officials?
CORRUPT AND BIASED ANTI-TRUMP “JUDGE” JAMES BOASBERG BLATANTLY RELEASES THE FIGURE ARRESTED FOR TRAVELING TO WASHINGTON DC TO – AS THEY BOASTED – KILL TRUMP. More HERE. Boasberg represents everything wrong with judicial prejudice and abuse.
TEACHER ARRESTED FOR CHILD SEXUAL CONTACT. Democrats, can you please leave the underaged alone?
MEALS ON WHEELS ORGANIZATION IS LEAVING PORTLAND BECAUSE THE DEMOCRAT-RUN CITY REFUSES TO KEEP THE STREETS SAFE. The group is unable to keep employees because of how dangerous Portland has become under Democrat leniency on crime.
DEMOCRAT CONGRESSWOMAN ANSARI CALLS ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS HER “CONSTITUENTS.” Look, we all know Democrats have been letting illegal immigrants vote in violation of the law, but Ansari has provided a real “mask off” moment. Continue reading
DEADBEAT AT DAWN (1988) – Four years in the making, Deadbeat at Dawn is rightfully called America’s Street Fighter – as in the 1974 Sonny Chiba movie, NOT the later video game. Writer and director Jim Van Bebber also starred in this 81-minute film as street gang leader Goose.
That antihero wields a self-taught bone-crushing, blood-spurting, throat-ripping mongrelized form of martial arts that makes Sonny Chiba’s beatdowns in Street Fighter look almost gentle by comparison.
Audiences not only wince at the violence in Deadbeat at Dawn, they thrill to the stunts that Van Bebber and his collaborators were able to pull off without the benefit of professional stuntmen or fight choreographers.
The risks taken by our auteur and his cast embody the ballsy guerilla filmmaking spirit as surely as Jorg Buttgereit’s efforts on both sides of the Berlin Wall in the early 1980s. The makeup and special effects for the butcher’s shop of injuries and dismemberments suffered by various characters are more like horror films than action flicks. Continue reading

Here’s a Monday current events roundup from Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog.
CHICAGO’S DEMOCRAT MAYOR SIGNS ORDER TO PROTECT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS IN THE CITY AND OBSTRUCT ENFORCEMENT OF IMMIGRATION LAWS. “Illegal immigrants uber alles” is still the Democrat motto.
HUFFINGTON POST AMONG THE DEMOCRAT MEDIA OUTLETS WHO WERE CLAIMING PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS DEAD ONLY TO BE PROVEN WRONG BY HIS SATURDAY GOLF OUTING AND MORE. I will point out again that anti-Trump loons need professional help.
ANOTHER REMINDER ABOUT THE SHOWBOATING ANTI-TRUMP JUDGES WHO OVERSTEP THEIR AUTHORITY.
LABOR DAY 2025 OBSERVED UNDER DONALD TRUMP, THE GREATEST PRESIDENT FOR THE WORKING CLASS AND THE POOR DURING MY LIFETIME. More HERE.

Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog does another current events roundup.
ICE ARRESTS ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT PEDOPHILE FOUND LIVING INSIDE A CHILDREN’S DAYCARE CENTER IN DEMOCRAT “SANCTUARY” STATE CALIFORNIA. As usual, perpetrators get “sanctuary” but not the public. More HERE.
MEXICO’S PRESIDENT POINTS OUT THAT BILL CLINTON DEPORTED MORE MEXICANS THAN TRUMP HAS. If so, that’s because Clinton didn’t have pathetic District Judges overstepping their authority by trying to block his every move and requiring months-long appeals to higher courts.
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S POLICIES CAUSE THE ECONOMY TO SOAR HIGHER THAN EXPECTATIONS. More HERE.
CONSUMER PRICES FALL AND INFLATION STYMIED.
MINNEAPOLIS POLICE CHIEF: MANY PARENTS AND TEACHERS WANT POLICE OFFICERS BACK IN SCHOOLS. He also says a day doesn’t go by that they don’t need outside help HERE. It’s like Democrats with their defunding and other attacks on police plus no-cash bail have left the cities they run in dire straits.
DEMOCRAT CONGRESSMAN JOHN LARSON CALLS FOR “UPRISING” AGAINST ICE ENFORCEMENT OF IMMIGRATION LAWS. Even now, it is STILL “Illegal immigrants uber alles” with Democrats.
WINSOME SEARS’ PRIVILEGED WHITE DEMOCRAT OPPONENT ABIGAIL SPANBERGER VOWS TO TURN VIRGINIA INTO A SANCTUARY STATE FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. More HERE.
DEMOCRAT GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM STILL IGNORING LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY STANDARDS FOR TRUCK DRIVERS. See above. How many more have to die, Gavin? Continue reading
GIANT OF THE EVIL ISLAND (1965) – Also released as The Mystery of the Evil Island, this film starred Mission: Impossible‘s Peter Lupus going by the name Rock Stevens. After mild success in a few Italian peplums, Lupus got his one and only swashbuckler movie with this little honey.
Peter stars as Captain Pedro Valverde, a Spanish Empire naval officer who is out to bust up the evil pirate Captain Moloch and the various crews that prey on shipping while using Moloch’s fortress on the Evil Island as a base. That being said, Pirates of Evil Island would have been a more fitting title, but what can ya do?
Pedro’s predecessor as captain of his ship has retired after a career of fruitlessly trying to nab the pirate Moloch. Newly arrived Captain Valverde meets cute with the local governor’s daughter Bianca (Dina DeSantis) and the two fall in “love.”
Our hero soon goes undercover – well, he wears black clothing instead of his uniform and tilts his hat slightly over one eye – in the nearest town. Pedro ends up in a swordfight to help a beautiful young lady named Alma (Halina Zalewska) in a violent dispute over her jewelry. Continue reading

Typical anti-Trump fundamentalist
Time for another current events roundup from Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog here in an America where anti-Trump fascists continue with their daily unhinged headlines that are on the order of TRUMP HAS INCREASED THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN HE EATS ON A DAILY BASIS! and DEMOCRATS VOW TO MAKE 24/7 HYSTERIA THEIR STRATEGY FROM NOW ON!
Anyway, the ignorance shown by so many Trump-haters is why I want to remind them that they should ask themselves a few questions before they mindlessly go along with The Party’s daily dose of panic –
Can they name at least 7 or 8 previous presidents and their political party affiliation without looking online? Can they trace the process through which a bill becomes a law? Can they name the sources where the general public can look up political contributions? Can they use their own words to explain their political opinions – if “political opinions” isn’t too strong a term for their childish “Trump is evil” babbling.
Can they even name their state’s Senators or House reps or Governors? Grow up, anti-Trump fundamentalists. Learning the routine, mundane details of politics may give you less of a rush than apocalyptic ravings, but they can certainly help to calm you down and stop frothing at the mouth.
GORKA ON ABBEY GATE AND PRESIDENT TRUMP. Related HERE.
ZOHRAN MAMDANI FAILS AT HIS WEIGHTLIFTING APPEARANCE.
TEN FBI WHISTLEBLOWERS AGAINST THE BIDEN REGIME’S POLITICIZING OF THE BUREAU GET VINDICATION. Continue reading

CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ESTIMATES FOUR TRILLION (YES, TRILLION) DOLLAR REDUCTION IN U.S. DEFICIT FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP ADJUSTING TARIFFS TO MATCH THE WAY OTHER COUNTRIES WERE GOUGING AMERICA FOR FAR TOO LONG. Related item HERE. And HERE.
SENATOR TIM SCOTT CALLS OUT PRIVILEGED WHITE DEMOCRAT CRITICS OF BLACK REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE WINSOME SEARS FOR “COSPLAYING” JIM CROW. More HERE. Democrat racists STILL hate people of color who refuse to obey them about politics.
SUPREME COURT JUSTICES BLAST ANTI-TRUMP LOWER COURT JUDGES WHO ARE VIOLATING DECISIONS THE SCOTUS HAS ALREADY ADDRESSED JUST TO DRAG OUT THE SAME ISSUES OVER AND OVER AGAIN. Last week marked “the third time in a matter of weeks” the Supreme Court had to reverse a lower court on an issue it had already addressed just because their initial ruling went in favor of Trump.
More HERE in an item that makes a persuasive case that a president would be justified in defying repeated illegal court orders from lower courts. Just cite the Supreme Court’s previous ruling as the reason for defying the overreaching lower court.
FACULTY LOUNGE FASCIST: DEMOCRAT “HISTORY TEACHER” – WHOSE CLASS HAS A SIXTY-NINE PERCENT FAILURE RATE – ABUSED HER AUTHORITY TO BROWBEAT A STUDENT SHE LABELED CONSERVATIVE AS “MOST LIKELY TO BECOME A DICTATOR.” The repulsive propagandist even provided a copy of the “award” to embarrass the student in front of the class. More HERE. The worst of the privileged white Democrats apparently drifted into “teaching”. Continue reading
Time once again for a current events roundup from Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog.
An arrested drunk? Nope, it’s the alleged judge.
APPEALS COURT THROWS OUT THE JUDGMENT AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP THAT WAS IMPOSED BY CORRUPT “JUDGE” ARTHUR ENGORON AND NEW YORK ATTORNEY GENERAL LETITIA JAMES DURING THE DEMOCRATS’ LAWFARE ATTEMPTS TO SABOTAGE TRUMP’S CAMPAIGN FOR REELECTION. Political hack Engoron was overturned AGAIN as rational people knew would happen from the beginning.
Democrats flushed the justice system down the toilet in their unhinged political persecution of President Trump. The cases against him were clearly travesties all along.
TRUMP WIN HAILED AS A VICTORY FOR “NOT JUST TRUMP, BUT FOR ALL AMERICANS HARMED BY THE FAR LEFT’S ILLEGAL LAWFARE.” Marlow laid it out HERE.
PRESIDENT TRUMP ADDS HIS OPINION ON THE OUTCOME. Needless to say, he doesn’t mince words. More HERE.
DHS AND ICE ANNOUNCE ARREST OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT JONATAN MONZON-OLIVARES, WHO ALREADY HAS THIRTY-EIGHT ARRESTS AND FIFTEEN CONVICTIONS, INCLUDING SEXUAL ASSAULT. “Under the Biden Administration, serial criminal illegal aliens were allowed to terrorize Americans. We are restoring law and order and putting the safety of Americans first. No longer is America a safe haven for the world’s criminals.”
BIDEN-HARRIS REGIME EXPOSED FOR IGNORING RED FLAGS ON THEIR ABUSE OF THE AUTOPEN FOR THEIR ILLEGIT PARDONS, ETC. A scandal the Democrats continue trying to distract from, along with the way we had an unfit buffoon being paraded before the cameras as “president” while unelected and still unknown figures made presidential decisions.
DNI TULSI GABBARD COMMENDED FOR HER WORK IN CLEANING UP AMERICA’S POLITICIZED THREE-LETTER AGENCIES. More HERE. She continues to investigate the Russia Hoax against Trump HERE.
DEMOCRAT MEDIA OUTLET THE NEW YORK TIMES WARNS THAT THE PARTY IS LOSING REGISTERED VOTERS BY CRISIS PROPORTIONS. More HERE. That can happen when your political party becomes a combination of fascists and the Mafia. Continue reading
