A “woke” Washington, DC, judge is facing backlash after he opted to cut loose an 18-year-old accused of firing more than two dozen rounds from an AR-15 into a car full of people.

Lloyd U. Nolan Jr., a judge on the Superior Court of the District of Columbia, last week ordered Amonte Moody to be released on house arrest ahead of his trial — despite acknowledging that the teen’s alleged actions could have killed someone.

Moody, who was slapped with charges including assault with a dangerous weapon, had allegedly sprayed 26 shots at an SUV carrying four people on Independence Avenue in the early hours of April 22.  ...

The Facebook posts the judge had previously shared included a meme in 2019 declaring he was “still woke,” as well as another promoting Black Lives Matter, according to Fox News.  ...

This is his official portrait?  Pretty horrific IMO.  It does look likes he's burning in hell. 

Kari Lake is already making excuses for her likely Senate loss

Kari Lake likely is going to blow the Senate race in Arizona for the GOP, and she is already making excuses for it.

On Sunday, Lake laid out her theory that Arizona Democrats were trying to register people to vote when they sign up for Medicare and Medicaid so that they had names on the voter rolls for illegal immigrants to use to illegally cast votes. Lake also said she “wouldn’t be all that confident” that the elections in November would be fair, at least “if it were today.” You have to give yourself enough wiggle room to claim victory if you actually win, after all.

That looks unlikely, though, this far out. Lake, who lost the 2022 race for governor as other Arizona Republicans won statewide, is consistently trailing Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) in polls. This is despite the fact that former President Donald Trump is consistently leading President Joe Biden in Arizona. Lake has somehow managed to craft a more toxic image in her state than Trump, and she is running against a Democrat who isn’t as universally loathed as Biden is with his terrible track record.

She has no one but herself to blame. Shortly before the 2022 elections, Lake told Arizona voters who supported former Sen. John McCain to “get the hell out” of her campaign event. Those voters returned the favor on Election Day, backing other generic Republicans while leaving Lake out to dry. She then ran around the state claiming that the election was stolen from her, ruining her reputation even further. Her 2024 run has been defined by trying to shake the very image she created for herself, with her best strategy appearing to be to flip-flop on abortion until she magically wins over swing voters.

Arizona is a blue state now.
Ms. Lake's chances?
Well, they're probably not that great -- even 50/50 would be good.

There are a lot more GOP than Dems here. It's the constant cheating by Democrats that make it appear to be a "blue state."
