Here’s another current events roundup from Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog while we all wait to see who the Democrats will murder next, then lie about their late victim’s words and conduct. Plus they’ll refuse to be civilized and condemn killing people.
PRESIDENT TRUMP AND OTHERS PAY TRIBUTE TO THE MEMORY OF CHARLIE KIRK, FREE SPEECH MARTYR KILLED BY THOSE HE TRIED TO BE CIVIL TOWARD. More HERE. And HERE.
MOURNERS SAY “WE ARE ALL CHARLIE.” But let’s hope this doesn’t fade away as quickly as “We are Charlie Hebdo” did back in 2015. ARMED MAN IMPERSONATING A COP ARRESTED AT THE CEREMONY.
GELLER STATES “IN ONLY EIGHT MONTHS, PRESIDENT TRUMP LIFTED MORE PEOPLE OUT OF POVERTY THAN BIDEN.” Donald Trump is the greatest president for the working class and the poor during my lifetime.
PERSON WHO SHOT UP A SACRAMENTO ABC AFFILIATE IN HONOR OF JIMMY KIMMEL IS A PREVIOUS LEGISLATIVE DIRECTOR FOR THE CALIFORNIA FEDERATION OF TEACHERS. The term “Faculty Lounge Fascist” comes to mind.
ANIMAL SHOUTING “FREE PALESTINE” KILLS ONE AND WOUNDS MANY MORE AT A NEW HAMPSHIRE WEDDING. You’ll notice it’s NEVER the people who want Hamas to “free their hostages” who do all the killing.
CHICAGO’S DEMOCRAT MAYOR BRANDON JOHNSON INSANELY STATES “LAW ENFORCEMENT IS A SICKNESS THAT DOESN’T REDUCE CRIME.” It’s that kind of attitude that reduces Democrat-run cities to violent cesspools and makes their citizens cry out for federal help. POLICE UNION HEAD CALLS MAYOR HYPOCRITE AND PIECE OF GARBAGE IN REPLY.
DEMOCRAT CONGRESSWOMAN JASMINE CROCKETT IDIOTICALLY STATES THAT COMMITTING CRIMES DOESN’T MAKE SOMEONE A CRIMINAL. What an imbecile. Continue reading
TIMEBOMB (1991) – With Alien: Earth being streamed in recent weeks, it has brought with it the usual remarks from Alien franchise fans about what a raw deal Michael Biehn got when his character Corporal Hicks was killed off with Newt in between films.
DIVISION THREE OVER DIVISION TWO – Three NCAA D3 teams shamed higher Division Two teams yesterday.

The 3rd Quarter saw the Indians tie things up at 17-17 before winning it in the 4th 34-24. 
For the first time since October of 2022, Mary Harris Jones – aka Mother Jones – speaks with Balladeer’s Blog despite having passed away in 1930. Much of the fun comes from the way that Democrat fundamentalists froth at the mouth over her visits here. 
MOTHER JONES: Good to be back, Balladeer. I notice you’ve tended to let up on some basic, solid points you’ve made in your blog posts over the years. I’m here to provide your easily distracted mind with some refreshers. 
Before MST3K there was … The Texas 27 Film Vault! In the middle 1980s, way down on Level 31 Randy and Richard, machine-gun toting Film Vault Technicians First Class, hosted this neglected 1985-1987 cult show. Balladeer’s Blog continues its celebration of the program’s FORTIETH anniversary year. 
SERIAL: Before presenting Gorilla at Large our machine-gun wielding Film Vault Technicians First Class presented an episode of Mysterious Dr. Satan, a Republic serial from 1940. The serial featured a mad scientist called Dr. Satan trying to take over the world with a very, VERY goofy-looking robot while a pulp-style hero called Copperhead tried to thwart his plans.
THE MOVIE: Gorilla at Large provided a wealth of material for our hosts to work with. Remember, their previous show had been The Trivia Guys and this film about a murderous gorilla at a circus was packed with opportunities for pop culture shoutouts. 
* George Barrows, the man in the gorilla suit as our title monster Goliath, was the same guy who wore the ape/robot outfit as Ro-Man in that staple of Bad Movie shows Robot Monster (previously shown on The Texas 27 Film Vault).
PSI CASSIOPEIA, or STAR: A MARVELOUS HISTORY OF WORLDS IN OUTER SPACE (1854) – Written by Dr Charlemagne Ischer Defontenay, a French M.D. and author. Long before J.R.R. Tolkien churned out obsessive amounts of fine detail about his fictional Middle Earth, Defontenay produced this volume of history, poetry and drama from his fictional planets in the star system Psi Cassiopeia. 
The system where that planet is located is a three-star system. Ruliel is the large, white star at the center, around which orbit the two lesser stars Altether (green) and Erragror (blue). The planet called Star is orbited by large planetoids/ moons named Tassul, Lessur, Rudar and Elier. Throwing all science to the winds the planet is also orbited by a small red star called Urrias. 
WAR HUNT (1962) – Unusual little movie that was sort of like a Korean War forerunner of Platoon. Redford is Private Roy Loomis, a new arrival who would be the film’s Charlie Sheen equivalent, right down to his first-person narration. John Saxon would be the Tom Berenger equivalent as Private Raymond Endore, who uses the war as an excuse to give his violent tendencies full reign.
