“It has reached the point now where it is an actual humanitarian crisis,” Greg Gurnick, a Berkeley property owner, told the San Francisco Chronicle this week. He’s talking about Ohlone Park, where tents, needles, and human waste now crowd out the dog walkers. The crisis is real — but it isn’t just in the tents.

Sinister black SUVs prowled the parks and playgrounds of D.C.'s toniest neighborhoods last week. Inside, heavily armed immigration agents in full body armor prepared to do battle with some of the most dangerous elements of the city's illegal alien underworld: NANNIES. “Not trying to create hysteria,” one worried mom sent out to the others, according to a Sunday report in the Washington Post.
MONDAY AT 3PM EASTERN: 'Five O'Clock Somewhere' with Kruiser, VodkaPundit

Happy belated Mother's Day to all those who partake. Melissa and I partook with brunch and several cocktails, followed by Melissa spending some quality time on the sofa and wondering what happened to all that gardening she was going to do this afternoon. The thing to remember is this: the tequila always gets a veto over your plans. It was lovely, but I'm really looking forward to today's Five O'Clock Somewhere.

Kruiser's back. Ed Morrissey is this week's special guest. And there's something awesome going on with me, but I can't remember right now because of this afternoon martini I mixed myself right before writing this week's intro.

If you aren't already part of our 5OS VIP Gold family when we have this 60% off FIGHT promotion going on, what are you waiting for?
Thursday Essay: Skynet Might Be Fiction, But It’s Coming for Our Jobs

"Listen, and understand! That Terminator is out there! It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... EVER, until your job has been fully automated!" —Kyle Reese in a reboot of "The Terminator," possibly. If you're going to write an essay about the rewards and risks of artificial intelligence, robotics, and automation, which pop culture hook do you start with? There are almost too many to choose from.

YEARS LATE AND SO MANY WASTED TAX DOLLARS SHORT: Reason Magazine tugs back on Gov. Jared Polis’ ‘libertarian’ card. Amidst ongoing battles within his own party, and despite recently vetoing a pair of bills that concentrated more authority in Colorado state government, Jared Polis’ carefully scripted reputation as a libertarian-leaning governor appears to be fading.
'F' Is for Democrat: Colorado’s Collapse Under One-Party Rule

1 week ago | pjmedia.com | Stephen Green

Colorado's economic report card is in, and my beloved home state — formerly a solid A and B student — just flunked every subject. Once upon a time, Colorado was a devilishly weird purple state — home to moderate-to-conservative Republicans like Ben Nighthorse Campbell and Tom Tancredo, idiosyncratic Democrats like Gary Hart and Richard Lamm, and (outside the Denver-Boulder Axis) a healthy libertarian streak.

Britain's big secret is out, and frankly, it was never really a secret. A leaked study for the UK's Department for Business and Trade (DBT) "found that the transition to net zero [carbon emissions] by 2050 could have a significant impact on growth and could spur inflation," according to a recent report in the Telegraph.

Early reports indicate that, after issuing an evacuation order, the IAF destroyed the Sana’a International Airport runway, control tower, terminal, and empty airliners on the ground.
