7 Things: Gambling deal far from one vote away in Alabama Senate; librarians need to be in jail; and more …

7. A huge Internal Revenue Service audit surge is coming but don’t worry, the government is not coming for you, promise. The IRS is gearing up to significantly increase audits in the coming years, targeting the wealthiest taxpayers, large corporations, and complex business partnerships while audits for small businesses and taxpayers earning less than $400,000 will remain where they are because this idea is literally class warfare.

6. UCLA cancels classes, Columbia caves to the mobs and cancels college graduations thus robbing all the students and families of a celebration of their accomplishments and instead having “school-level ceremonies” where they will be “honored” alongside other kids, as schools after school caves to these moronic malcontents. Meanwhile, the fraternity student making monkey noises at a black protester has been kicked out of his frat while not a single antisemitic protestor has been booted from their student organizations as consequences land on one side of the aisle and the media seeks scapegoats.

5. Hamas has allegedly accepted a “ceasefire” and the worldwide media declared that decision is good enough for them and it is time for those evil Jews to knock it off. However, Hamas’ ceasefire is not the ceasefire that has been proposed and Israel is not playing this game to the chagrin of the American media, the college students and their Democrats.

4. U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) doesn’t support the Antisemitism Awareness Act, a new law against anti-Semitism, and warns of a “slippery slope” that could impede free speech. Tuberville also questioned how wise it is to import foreign students because of the national security threats and the concerns on issues of bigotry and anti-Semitism.

3. Former President Donald Trump, who even the judge noted is “[the] former president and possibly the next president,” could potentially be going to jail if he commits another gag order violation. Judge Juan Merchan even noted that he doesn’t want to do this, but will if pushed further, “I do not want to impose a jail sanction and have done everything I can to avoid doing so. But I will if necessary.”

2. The pathetic meltdown of low-wage losers at al.com about librarians being taken to jail for showing kids obscene material continues and now various districts attorney around the state are being shown as dolts who can’t understand the law in question, even though it hasn’t passed yet and therefore does not exist. It is a last attempt to stymie the bill that has passed the House and is now in the Senate. The proposed legislation allows individuals to file complaints against library books deemed obscene or harmful to minors, potentially resulting in misdemeanor charges if the books are not removed. But this is all the fault of librarians who continue to refuse to respond to community concerns and are now about to find out what happens when you do that.

1. State Sen. Greg Albritton (R-Atmore) has taken to state-run media to explain his “no” vote and confirm that he is NOT changing his mind, finally driving the spike through the zombie bill’s long-dead head. Albritton, of course, cited the lack of an additional gambling site for the Poarch Creek Indians, but he also mentioned the lack of legalization and  regulation for sports gaming and online gambling, two issues that could have taken a few “yes” votes off the table.
