The Morning Report — 10/4/24
“As we have over our 106-year history, the IAFF will continue its work to improve the lives of firefighters and their families,” Kelly continued, contending that the Executive Board determined that “we are better able to advocate for our members and make progress on the issues that matter to them if we, as a union, are standing shoulder-to-shoulder.” “This decision, which we took very seriously, is the best way to preserve and strengthen our unity,” he continued, encouraging members to get out and “make their voices heard in the upcoming election.” . . . This non-endorsement comes as a huge blow to the Harris-Walz ticket; the union endorsed President Biden prior to the 2020 presidential election. . . “American workers were safer and better off when President Trump was in office – rank-and-file workers know it, and that is why they will ignore their union bosses and will vote for the Trump-Vance ticket on November 5,” he added.Meanwhile, as bodies are still being pulled out of the mud and the trees in Appalachia, we once again have ideologically driven incompetence on full display.
It's not just the piddly $750 being handed out by FEMA to residents in North Carolina and other states whose homes were destroyed in Hurricane Helene. (A similar amount was handed out to residents of Lahaina, Hawaii, after their town was destroyed by fire.)Billions of dollars to import millions of foreign peasants, among them thousands of hardened criminals as well as Islamic terrorists, who want to slit our throats even if Israel were not an historic ally who now is on the verge of changing the trajectory of history in the middle East and potentially the West by handicapping if not ending the 45 year reign of terror, brought to us by Jimmy Carter, of the Iranian mullahs. While the DC Junta tells poor white folks who cling to their guns, religion, and Trump to die in a flood. Yeah, before the usual chuckleheads start in with the wasting our money on foreign aid (nudge nudge wink-wink Israel), that is an unrelated issue, of which I do agree (certainly in the funding of kleptocracies and anti-American juntas who hate us and stab us in the back. Israel being an historic pro-US bulwark). But the incompetence and ideology that is to blame for why the government is so inept at dealing with disasters, natural or otherwise is the issue.
It's the lethal incompetence. Just as cops taking orders from state government officials blocked Lahaina residents in cars from escaping the inferno -- the only survivors were those who defied them and drove through the blockades -- FEMA officials from the federal government are doing all they can to block the delivery of aid to people in the hardest hurricane-hit rural areas, where people need food, water, medicine, shelter and everything else and have been completely cut off from civilization. They're actually stopping them, as if they were trespassers and saying just trust the government.
That might work when people have time, but these hurricane victims don't have time. Their need for aid is immediate. One aid worker explains why that may be, and it's a doozy of a story . . . Inefficiency, waste and an absence of leadership all around.
That would be so even if they hadn't blown their budget on illegals, which Sens. Marco Rubio, Rick Scott, and the very sharp crowd in hurricane-vulnerable Florida first noticed last May -- I wrote about that here.
But the blown budget raises severe questions about their priorities -- North Carolina's taxpayers paid into that federal program to help people hit by natural disasters, and FEMA chose to pay instead for the housing and feeding of foreign nationals who have no legal right nor legitimate business being in this country. That ought to be a firing offense and it would be if this were the private sector, or most any other administration than the Biden-Harris one, where incompetence is encouraged.
If FEMA can't do the job it's tasked with, and a disaster is unfolding, they've got a moral obligation to invite in any and all who can come in and help. That obligation is so strong it ought to be enshrined into law by Congress.
And that incompetence and ideology, in the drive for absolute power, also leads to this:
Eva Edl is a survivor. The 89-year-old widow grew up in the former Yugoslavia, where she saw the horrors of Communism firsthand. She came to the U.S. because she thought it was a bastion of freedom and liberty, however, she now finds herself facing time in prison for trying to convince women not to kill their unborn babies.
When Edl was six, the Nazis invaded her homeland. Even though her family had German heritage, the Nazis considered her father an “impure Aryan” and sent him to the front lines. As he lay sick in a hospital bed, he sent a message to his family to flee, but they didn’t get the message in time.
“A coup against Yugoslavia's king caused a violent civil war to erupt, emasculating Yugoslavia's defenses even as the powerful Nazi war machine began to drop bombs on them,” Edl’s biography explains. “The nation's communists gradually suppressed the various sects clamoring for power, and displayed such a courageous resistance against the overwhelming Nazi forces that they won the admiration of the Western democracies.”
The Communists targeted the German-heritage Danube-Swabian people like Edl’s family. Her Hungarian grandmother was initially able to hide her grandchildren, but not for long. The Communists forced Edl’s mother and older siblings into labor camps and sent Edl and her grandmother to a concentration camp.
Amid the grim atmosphere of the Communist concentration camp, where death loomed at every turn, Edl came to faith in Jesus. Somehow, she made her way out and fled to Austria and eventually the U.S. seeking freedom.
In the land of the free, Edl discovered a different kind of horror. While taking an English class in the ‘60s, she learned about abortion. This was before Roe v. Wade, yet Edl recoiled at the idea that a mother would kill her child in the womb. She eventually became a pro-life activist. .. . . . “Eva felt the call of God to lay down her life to rescue unborn children, just as others laid down their life to rescue her,” her biography explains. “She became a voice for life and justice and an icon in the rescue movement in the United States, where up to 80,000 Christians were arrested blockading abortion clinic entrances in the 80's and 90's. Eva Edl has been arrested 46 times blockading abortion clinics, trying to save babies from death by abortion.” Last month, Edl was one of seven protesters convicted of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. The protesters stood at the entrance to an abortion clinic in Michigan. “A federal jury convicted seven defendants today of federal civil rights offenses arising out of their blockade of a reproductive health care clinic in Sterling Heights, Michigan, on Aug. 27, 2020,” the Department of Justice announced in August. “The defendants were each convicted of a felony conspiracy against rights and a Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act offense” (emphasis added). The DoJ also announced that Edl and one other woman had blocked access to another clinic the following year.
They want us silent, compliant or otherwise out of the way. A prison or a grave. Matters not to the Democrats and Globalists. Any port in a storm. Considering the ILA and Helene, rather a perfect metaphor. Don't think for a moment that this cannot happen here, because from everything I can see, we are well on the way to it:
A former militant group leader whose organization was affiliated with the Weathermen terrorists and monitored by the FBI now leads a small but influential group of White House policymakers championed by Vice President Kamala Harris. The White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council was created in the first week of the Biden-Harris administration as part of the White House’s effort to, according to an executive order, "increase the federal government’s efforts to address current and historic environmental injustice." The group is composed of individuals appointed by the president who, the White House states, "have knowledge about or experience in environmental justice, climate change, disaster preparedness, or racial inequity, among other areas of expertise." Leading those individuals is a man named Richard Moore, who co-chairs the council. His brief biography provided by the Environmental Protection Agency describes him as a "widely respected national leader in the area of environmental justice" who "has served on numerous government and nongovernmental committees and panels." . . . Moore’s earliest political activities, records show, appear to begin in the 1960s. Moore cofounded a militant group modeled after the Black Panthers in Albuquerque called the Black Berets, archives hosted at the University of New Mexico show. The Black Berets’ 12-point program included opposing capitalism and the "Amerikkkan Military" while supporting "armed self-defense and armed struggle" as "the only means to liberation." Although the Black Berets’ membership was largely Hispanic, the group affiliated with several far-left groups at the time, including the Weathermen and the Venceremos Brigade, translated to English as "We Shall Triumph." Moore, along with other members of the Black Berets, soon formally joined the Venceremos Brigade. An offshoot of the far-left Students for a Democratic Society, the brigade was founded for the purpose of American leftists to aid the new communist government in Cuba. Moore eventually served on the brigade’s national committee.And this is just one thug, in a government that is chock full of them. Along with the usual go-along to get-along idlers and hacks in every department and agency, up to and including the most sensitive and crucial to our personal and national security. Depending of course on who gets to define those terms. When the meaning of words, and indeed who gets to use what words for what purpose is controlled by the Left, it's a short walk to being arrested for inciting terrorism just for disagreeing with the powers that be. What Shitcan Chutkan and Jack Smith are doing right now against Trump all by itself is a huge flashing warning sign that the first Amendment is on life support, if not dead as it is. Lastly, your support in hitting the tip jar is greatly appreciated.
Have a good weekend. And God be with everyone affected by Helene. And all of you!

She Survived Nazism and Communism, but Eva Edl Could Die in Prison for Pro-Life Protests
- Douglas Murray: Look around the media and you see the same problem everywhere. Much of the media will tell you that they regard their job as being to decide what is true and what is false. But the problem is that most of them aren’t any good at the task they set themselves. In Britain the national broadcaster — the BBC — recently set up a special department called “BBC Verify” which is meant to “fact-check” content across the media. But they can’t even get the BBC’s own facts right. On issue after issue — foreign and domestic — “BBC Verify” has overseen verifiably untrue stories. I understand the panic in these media institutions.
‘Fact check’ has become just another word for censorship
- ISRAEL vs IRAN & GAZA/HAMAS/Hezbollah . . . AND BIDEN
- U.S. [so-called quote-unquote] President Joe Biden on Thursday glibly ruled out any imminent Israeli strikes against Iran as the strife-torn region prepares for a response to the recent missile attack on the Jewish state.

Did Hamas Just Ghost the Biden-Harris Junta?
- In 2000, Salha took part in the brutal lynching of two Israeli reservists—Sergeant First Class Yosef Avrahami and Corporal Vadim Norzhich—who had taken a wrong turn and ended up in the Palestinian Authority-controlled city of Ramallah in the West Bank. Salha was photographed with blood on his hands smiling and waving from a window after a Palestinian mob beat and stabbed the two Israeli soldiers to death.
IDF Kills Hamas Terrorist Infamous for Ramallah Lynching of Israeli Soldiers
- Here’s a story you won’t see covered by the leftist media. As American college students held vigils for their dearly departed Hezbollah and Hamas terrorists, this week, a U.S. and Israeli-led operation rescued a young Iraqi woman kidnapped and hauled off to Gaza as a sex slave for 10 years.
ISIS Sex Slave Rescued From Gaza After Being Kidnapped At 11 Years Old
- Both regimes, which maintain extensive ties to Iran and its Shiite jihadist proxy Hezbollah, have been highly critical of Israel’s recent actions against Hezbollah in Beirut. Most notably, Cuba’s figurehead “president” Miguel Díaz-Canel publicly condemned Israel’s recent airstrike operation that resulted in the “cowardly targeted killing” of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, confirmed on Saturday. Nasrallah, who had led Hezbollah for decades, was responsible for thousands of civilian deaths, including Americans.

- "Happy 70th Birthday, Rev! … I celebrate the day you were born," Harris said in a video aired on MSNBC. "You are a voice of truth, a voice of conscience, a voice of practicality around what we must address and what we can do, and I thank you so much for your friendship." Sharpton, a prominent Democratic ally, provoked the 1991 Crown Heights riots—one of the worst eruptions of anti-Semitic violence in American history that inspired chants such as "Let's get the Jew!" and "Hitler didn't finish the job!"

- Betsy McCaughey: Never mind the violence perpetrated by migrant gangs and the societal disorder caused by open borders: Their problem is with the words. NPR says the term “third world” is “offensive.” Foreign Policy columnist Howard French calls it “utterly racist rhetoric.” It’s an intentional distraction.
Word games can’t conceal the ‘third world’ truth about open borders BIDEN CRIME FAMILY REVELATIONS - The Biden-Harris junta's National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is invoking a 30-day delay in releasing a trove of documents relating to President Joe Biden’s tenure as vice president under Barack Obama, meaning they won’t be viewable by the voting public until November 6, 2024—they day after the presidential election. It is speculated that at least some of the records held by NARA could shed further light on the Biden family’s—especially Hunter Biden‘s—foreign business dealings and how they leveraged government access and Joe Biden’s name to enrich themselves.While NARA, an independent executive branch agency overseen directly by President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, technically has the authority to delay the release of the records by 30 days, the timing of the move is drawing criticism. Attorneys representing Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama secured the extension under the Presidential Records Act, 44 U.S.C. § 2208(a)(3)(B).
Surprise! Biden-Harris Junta Hides Hunter Corruption Details Until AFTER Election. SHAMPEACHMENTS, 2016 CLINTON/OBAMA COUP, CONGRESSIONAL PERSECUTION, SPYGATE, DEEP STATE, MUELLER DECEPTION - The First Amendment protects Americans’ free speech when criticizing the government and criticizing elections. In America, you have always been allowed to claim that you thought elections were fraudulent, whether that is true or not. It’s a First Amendment right. Smith wants to criminalize that constitutionally protected free speech when the Democrats’ most formidable opponent uttered it. But if you think it will stop with Trump, think again. The Democrat party has become the anti-free speech party, the party of the censorship industrial complex.
Jack Smith Trump Filing Argues That Free Speech Is Criminal FIRST AMENDMENT ISSUES, CENSORSHIP, FAKE NEWS, MEDIA, BIG BROTHER TECH - Just when you thought this story could not get any more awesome…This all started earlier in the month when Nuzzi was herself placed on leave by New York Magazine, where she was considered their star reporter.

Even Liberal Media Wants Kamala To Do More Press, But Not For The Reason You Think THE ECONOMY, STUPID - The dockworkers’ strike that could have severely hurt the American economy and the supply chain weeks before an election has been paused until January 15, diverting what could have been a political catastrophe for Vice President Kamala Harris.
Longshoremen Pause Strike Until January 15, Throw Kamala Harris a Lifeline
- Okay, the longshoremen are getting a lot of flack this week. It’s not all undeserved. The union boss threatening to “cripple” the U.S. economy recently sold his 76-foot yacht, while the typical ILA worker makes well into the six-figures. But they’re just ankle-biters in the scheme of things. It’s the foreign shipping companies who are the Final Boss.

- “The appearance is the Wyoming conservative's first with Harris and comes in the key swing state critical to the path to the White House,” reports the Journal Sentinel. “Cheney said last month that she would vote for Harris in November. Her father, former Republican Vice President Dick Cheney, also endorsed Harris.” Of course, we know that today’s mainstream media will overhype this event as the most important thing to ever take place in Ripon. Selling out the GOP for the most radical presidential ticket of all time is way more important to the left-wing press than the founding of the Republican Party.
Liz-ard Cheney Has Lost Her Mind POLITICS - Busken Bakery in Cincinnati has predicted every presidential winner since 1984 (except 2020, weird, right?) based on presidential cookie sales. They have Trump clown-slapping Kamala with 15,823 snacks sold with Trump's likeness to Harris's paltry 4,833. Cookie sales are obviously not scientific, yet they seem to have gotten more predictions right than "scientific" pollsters like FiveThirtyEight, which spectacularly dropped the ball in 2016. An article from Econotimes suggests that based on the polling of The Trafalgar Group and Insider Advantage, a landslide for Trump is quite feasible.

Fast on Helene’s heels, we now have another disaster hitting the U.S.: The longshoreman strike that now threatens to shut down much of the U.S. economy. And very conspicuously, Joe Biden did nothing about it. No jawboning. No ideas. No attempt to cool tempers and bridge differences to get a deal.

>> Just as cops taking orders from state government officials blocked Lahaina residents in cars from escaping the inferno -- the only survivors were those who defied them and drove through the blockades
I’ve been thinking about this recently. I’ve always “backed the blue” but policemen acting like thugs has become more common and I’m losing my instinct to back the blue. Tim Walz ordered police to shoot paint balls at people outside on their porches during covid… and they did! Just one tiny example amongst many the last few years…. Remember the “heroic” cops in Uvalde? Or the officers in SoCal during covid arresting a lone surfer on the beach? And don’t get me started on the FIB. We have a problem

As in most big ticket issues, the problem comes by bucketing people into rigid categories that admit no outliers. Semi-marxist pseudoclass warfare.
Cops will never be 100% righteous, or 100% evil. Call out and punish the ones who are evil, celebrate and support the ones who aren't.
Same with teachers, or senators, or HR departments.

A "hero" cop is not a hero because he's a cop. A hero soldier is not a hero because he's a soldier. They're people who took a job that affords more chances for heroism than most others, sure. But plastering the hero label on as if it oozed out from the rank insignia pin like some kind of nicotine patch is exactly how crooked police chiefs and traitorous flag officers can make a career being crooks and traitors.

...the typical ILA worker makes well into the six-figures...
There's a real disconnect here. Here's what their expired contract read:
Pay for longshoremen is based on their years of experience. Under the ILA's former contract with USMX, which expired on Monday, starting pay for dockworkers was $20 per hour. That rose to $24.75 per hour after two years on the job and to $31.90 after three years, topping out at $39 for workers with at least six years of service.
So, anyone who's making 6 figures is working a bit of overtime. Crane operators may make more but, on the whole, they don't seem to be as over-paid as opinion writers make them out to be.

The ideological struggle between the left and right knows no bounds.
Law enforcement, justice, business, academia, government, media and so on. Most of the institutions have been corrupted by the left to one degree or another.
It's hard to not be skeptical with any one person, or entity given how bad things have gotten. What's going on in the storm ravaged areas isn't 'just' incompetence.

First, strike Yemen again. Every time the IAF hits a target that is difficult to replace.
Second, hit the power grid. It is centralized in Iran. A country without electrical power is a mission kill. If they need to focus, only hit the power plants to nuclear facilities (centrifuges use a lot of power), Tehran, and Qom.
Regime change would need the Iranian Crown Prince and family, currently in San Diego, and hitting the militia HQs and Quds force.

Origins of Covid, which for those who've seen 'fringe' reporting of emails uncovered by FoA, know was funded by our own government and covered up by Fauci, but somehow these incriminating docs haven't made their way to mainstream news yet.
Lahaina, East Palestine, Appalachia. I suspect there are some very incriminating documents that exist.
Our government needs to get the Cackler and the Knucklehead over the line and we'll never see any of the proof of their malfeasance.
If Trump can survive everything the government-media complex is throwing at him (and us), and win, he needs a bulldog on his team that will open all the books. There needs to be a reckoning.

It's become painfully obvious that there is a complete lack of leadership in the disaster relief efforts in North Carolina. The governor Cooper (D) has abrogated his responsibilities to FEMA -- Mayorkis at DHS squawks "FEMA has no money" -- and nobody at the top of the org. chart is saying, "Make it happen, we'll worry about money later."
The fed.gov cretins finally got shamed into authorizing military assets almost a week after the disaster. But only after some civilian rescue organizations started broadcasting about the Title 10 fckv-up.
Contrast this to Florida: they're cleaning up the mess pretty much on their own. Plus, Gov. DeSantis told the longshoreman, "Strike all you want, but the ports in Florida stay open and I'm sending National Guard troops to make sure the ports stay open." I'm sure it's just coincidence that the ILA ended it's strike a day after Gov. DeSantis told the shipping companies to come to Florida because those ports were going to stay open.

you made a contract and you have the legal and moral obligation to abide by your words. Same thing applies to student loan so-called forgiveness.
I imagine we see these particular issues the same way. But I can't say I'm inclined to defend contract rights on moral grounds any longer. Virtually no one I make a contract with feels morally obligated to fulfill their contractual duties to me. They perform or they don't. And if they don't, they just shrug their shoulders and say, "It's business, nothing personal." Like everything else in this country, the idea of your contractual word being your bond has broken down to such an extent that it's a one way street, another instance of my values being trotted out to ensure my compliance but never honored to my benefit.
TL;DR version: We used to have a high-trust society. We don't anymore, and that's not my doing. Now any trust given is misplaced. I've altered my behavior accordingly.

JD Vance says he wasn't channeling "The Office" in breaking the fourth wall by looking at the camera as Walz was floundering. He said he was looking at the timer next to the camera to see how much time was left for Walz to wrap it up.
You could replace the sound for any of Walz's responses with the sound effect of a gasoline-powered airplane cruising along and then experiencing engine difficulty -- sputtering, attempts to throttle it up, and so forth -- and then the familiar and stock sound of that airplane plunging to its doom, with the sound growing ever louder as it neared its catastrophic end.
The juxtaposition of thtvwith the looks on Walz's face as matters proceeded would be priceless.

Leading those individuals is a man named Richard Moore, who co-chairs the council. His brief biography provided by the Environmental Protection Agency describes him as a "widely respected national leader in the area of environmental justice" who "has served on numerous government and nongovernmental committees and panels."
. . . Moore’s earliest political activities, records show, appear to begin in the 1960s. Moore cofounded a militant group modeled after the Black Panthers in Albuquerque called the Black Berets, archives hosted at the University of New Mexico show.
The Black Berets’ 12-point program included opposing capitalism and the "Amerikkkan Military" while supporting "armed self-defense and armed struggle" as "the only means to liberation." Although the Black Berets’ membership was largely Hispanic, the group affiliated with several far-left groups at the time, including the Weathermen and the Venceremos Brigade, translated to English as "We Shall Triumph."
And don't forget, three LNG plants already under construction in the US have had their permits revoked in the name of "environmental justice" in the past two months.

Yes, he is doing good for Florida. It is unfortunate he got persuaded by (?) to conduct that campaign during the Primary.
But the aftermath of that Primary has put Sen. J.D.Vance on the national stage, and the dude is proving to be a rock-start.
Besides flipping over the rocks to expose the cockroaches, former Pres. Trump is motivating some younger, articulate people to gradually replace the GOPe deadwood.
Case in point: I initially thought Bernie Moreno (he's the Rep. candidate running against Sherod Brown in Ohio) was just being opportunist. But it ends up that Moreno is steadfastly pro-life (no abortions for any reason) -- that's a pretty bold stance that no GOPe stooge would dare adopt. Ironically, I learned that from the anti-Moreno adds: the Demoncrats are so invested in abortion.

But it ends up that Moreno is steadfastly pro-life (no abortions for any reason) -- that's a pretty bold stance that no GOPe stooge would dare adopt. Ironically, I learned that from the anti-Moreno adds: the Demoncrats are so invested in abortion.

In order to obtain a concealed carry permit in KY I had to complete a "live fire" exercise. It wasn't much, but it demonstrated an ability to properly use a handgun.
There was an extensive amount of discussion about the legal ramifications of using a gun too.
KY is a constitutional carry state now, but I still renew my CCW permit because it's required in states that I may travel to.

Buttigieg not allowing drones to survey the damage is actively hiding what they are NOT doing, as well as stymying critical rescue activities. They're going to memory hole this, the death toll, the people abandoned because Biden, Harris, Mayorkas, et al would not make the resources available asap to rescue survivors stranded outside of cities and towns. Monsters!

I've yet to see something that's completely "autonomous."
Even the undocking and reentry of the troubled Starliner capsule required the crew to enter the ship, flip some switches or push some buttons and, as it was described by NASA; "configure the capsule for unmanned reentry."
They called that "autonomous."
Granted there are machines that produce products, like semiconductor chips that don't have any human intervention, but the chips are not completely made without people in the loop somewhere.
Although my definition of "autonomous" might not be correct.

Who is being the anti-dwarf bigot? You're just saying "we can't have dwarves because some people have a condition called dwarfism and we don't want anyone to see them and go Ewww."

Thx JJ, good morning everyone. Happy Friday to all..
Everyday the people are seeing this administrations incompetence whether intentional or not. FEMA shitting the bed, Harris/Walz being babbling idiots , giving money to migrants and Ukraine, screwing Israel and showing complete idiocy in diplomacy.
I would not be surprised but see a Trump landslide even with an attempted steal. The 40%will still vote for Dems not matter what but independents , blacks and Latinos are all seeing what is happening and are moving away from Dems

The US government, at least for us plebs, always procured some pretty rough toilet paper. Single-ply, see through, about 220 grit on the sandpaper scale or whatever. "Lighthouse for the Blind" industries.
I would have LOVED to have scores a few rolls of this, to strategically swap out in the middle of the night, replacing the soft, plush triple-ply rolls on unsuspecting sophisticates. Like, you know chicks.
I bet the first female recruits were put off a little by the C-ration or MRE toilet paper. "There's supposed to be toilet paper in these? Where.. I can't find any.." LOL
Aka "John Wayne" toilet paper. Rough, and tough, and ... don't take no shit off nobody.

Everybody who isn't a completely biased leftist and who who was paying attention during the Crown heights riots and since knows that Al Sharpton is a racist hate mongerer. He war ordained at about 11 and has never pastored a church. Anytime I've heard Sharpton speak I've never heard him mention anything about Jesus or the life of faith.I suppose he had to when he preached in churches but I wouldn't want to hear him The pastor who has a church up the street from me is a little younger than Sharpton. He is nice , smart spiritual guy and his church has done much good in numerous ways. When he goes to meet the Lord he will be remembered with genuine fondness an appreciation in many ways than I think Sharpton will be.

>>>> FEMA officials from the federal government are doing all they can to block the delivery of aid...
Interesting how an agency having legal authority (appropriated tax dollars) to do 'x' is somehow transformed into having to having authority to no only NOT do 'x' but to also stop all others from doing 'x'.
Kinda like BP not just NOT controlling the border, but suing Texas for implementing razorwire barriers?
Same leader. Traitorous, Cuban ba$tard.

I've recently learned that with my employer if you elect to retire with PTO on the books, yes they will pay you a lump sum for it, but it's calculated at the lowest rate for your particular pay grade, so it's best to take PTO on your own schedule in advance of leaving.

The truly best thing is to take PTO, then say you're going on maternity leave (since anyone can get pregnant now), then leave when it ends.

Last week, the company I work for, planned and executed with other companies from this area flood relief efforts here in East Central NC for our co-NC families, friends, and animals. Trucks and trailers full of much needed items were brought to Western NC. When the trucks reached Western NC the helicopters took over distributing to areas where vehicles couldn't get to. When the drivers dcame back to be reloaded the scenes they saw left them stunned at what they saw. For three days I have taped up, filled up, and loaded items into trucks and trailers along with other volunteers. We have been at three different donation sites with more popping up everyday. The generosity is overwelming to see firsthand. Small children brimming with a joy as they hand you items they realize are going to help people they don't even know. One guy opened up his Suburban hatchback and it was completely filled. I mean filled. Yesterday, I saw pictures of boxed up items with parachutes attached to them. Only certain org's are allowed to receive money and clothing, we were not, so if you can lend a hand, anyway you can, thank you, and
God Bless You.
God Bless You.

It doesn't just happen to worker bees. I worked for a man who was Head of School for an upscale prep school. He was in the job for nearly 20 years, presiding over vast growth in facilities, students, and money. When he retired, he expected the Board to pay him his accumulated sick time, which was a large amount. They were not legally obligated to, and didn't. He stayed away for 15 years and was bitter about it. He only kinda reconciled a bit in the few months before he passed away.

I'm not sure FEMA is blocking aid so much as the agency is so totally mismanaged that it just can't do the singular job it's supposed to.
There's truckloads of stuff there. But nobody has coordinated it's distribution, thus nobody on scene wants to take responsibility for it.
I fully accept the premise that FEMA is actively blocking the distribution of food, water, etc. but I also think it could be simple incompetence too. And I'm not one to believe social media posters sitting in their car claiming they were denied aid when they're posting from downtown LA. Everyone's got an agenda...

- "Actual Science..."
We've already seen how the JWST has had the big bang astronomers trying to explain away fully formed galaxies out to very distant (red shift 20?) with 'galaxies must have started forming much earlier than we thought.'
Gonna be funny watching what they try to do with the measured, angular appearance of their size out past red shift 1.4. Or is it 1.6? (Old brain)
Maybe something like the average size of galaxies further away is much smaller.
The problem is really a heart condition, not a head condition. Accept the historical narrative of Genesis 1? Never.
Thankfully, God is using it with some.

When these (real, not cheesy, fraudulent COVID type) emergencies happen, it gives them a raging blue-veiner. Emergencies mean people must Respect Their Authoritah, so they brandish their nightsticks and command people to suffer and die.

True. But they never call in sick, work at peak efficiency, and never ask for a raise.
Simple math (I know, I know) an employee taking 1 week sick and 3 weeks vacation along with 8 holidays that's 23 days per year. You could shut the machines down for maintenance 2 days per month and it would be a push.
Even workers on the floor are going to be facing issues if the internet goes down.

The truly best thing is to take PTO, then say you're going on maternity leave (since anyone can get pregnant now), then leave when it ends.

Owing to the nature of my job, I've promised my manager that I would provide significant notification of my intent to retire (couple months) because I'm not a huge dick. I am, however, planning on retiring in the early part of the year which means that a goodly portion of the time betwixt notification and departure will be PTO.
They made the rules that they won't pay me for it, they can suck on the consequences.

Looks like #Israel got the whole Hezbollah Shura Council that was meeting to elect Safieddine as Nasrallah's successor. This makes me think that Israel knew where Safieddine has been, all along, and was waiting for this meeting to take them out wholesale, instead of one by one.

It doesn't just happen to worker bees. I worked for a man who was Head of School for an upscale prep school. He was in the job for nearly 20 years, presiding over vast growth in facilities, students, and money. When he retired, he expected the Board to pay him his accumulated sick time, which was a large amount. They were not legally obligated to, and didn't. He stayed away for 15 years and was bitter about it. He only kinda reconciled a bit in the few months before he passed away.

Very few, if any, companies pay for sick time. When I worked for the prison system, (State of Texas), we accrued vacation time and sick time. They let you know up front in the training academy that when you quit/retired, you would be paid for unused vacation time but not sick time.
I lost about 400 hours of sick time.

>>For decades the Trump brand has been built around being rich and banging hot floozies.
Yes, and you know who provided the details to the NYC gossip reporters? Trump:
Earlier this month, I heard A.J. Benza, the host of the celebrity-scandal show “Case Closed with A.J. Benza,” tell the podcast host Adam Carolla about his younger days as a gossip reporter in New York City. He hung out with celebrities until the wee hours of the morning, reported out sensational rumors, and constantly traded favors in order to get juicy tidbits for columns at Newsday and the New York Daily News. Most trades involved information he wanted about a particular person at a particular moment––and he would then owe his source a favor in the future.
“Donald Trump was the biggest guy in the world with that,” he said. “Trump spent every morning on the phone with me, with Page 6––he loved to get his name in the paper. As a result, he would drop dimes on other people in every industry he knew dirt on. You put the story in the paper, and then, three days later, you say, ‘Donald Trump was at a Knicks game with this supermodel.’ And he’s happy. That’s all it took.”

There is this thing called a Design Review usually a series of them, that is done when a system is being put together. Usually it's a bunch of engineers whose job is to pick the design apart looking for single points of failure, non-conformance to specifications, etc. Things like that.
They can get incredibly intense.
Most design engineers know for a fact that Mother Nature is a stone cold-hearted bitch from experience.
This is how the rational would operates ideally. However politics can radically distort the outcome.

RWers are trying to claim that the "American People" are over Jan.6. JD is using that as an excuse for not answering whether Biden won the election. Trending on Twitter, the answer is HELL NO!
Not one bit! Especially since Trump is obviously planning a repeat performance. President Biden isn’t going to not act like Trump did. Security will be strong. Any rioters will be very sorry if they try another insurrection.
NEVER! He attacked my country, as sure as we were attacked at Pearl Harbor and on 9/11.
Thanks for bringing those events up. Foreign attacks on one's country are always awful, but there is a logic to it, however horrible. The J6ers spat (and literally shat) upon the true meaning of America. It is not something that can ever be set aside.
I will NEVER reconcile with these scum. FUCKING EVER. Trump-humping shitbag lurkers, if I live near you, you’ve got an enemy. (Intrepid- Oh Shit!!!)
My heart goes out to the police officers that were there. Mike Pence did the right thing that day.
No. Never. I still want justice. We were finally getting a chance to move on from the hell and chaos he inflicted on us and then boom.

The feds will pay you for unused leave. If you've got unused sick leave they apply the hours/days/weeks/months you've accumulated to your time in service. Which, can if there's a lot of it, bump your pension. Which is probably worth more in the long run than an up front payout.

People have largely missed what Healy just did in Massachusetts. She used government powers, under the form of a dubious “emergency” to immediately put into effect a fairly complete obliteration of the Second and Fourth Amendments. One might say they agree politically with the issues, but one cannot say they believe in liberty and The Bill of Rights, yet still agree with this dastardly move. It was specifically done to stop the will of the people and a petition that would have allowed the courts to litigate the issue before the measure became “law”. This type is insidious measure is nothing short of tyranny. You might believe after having just gone through the COVID usurpation of our rights this type of behavior would be greeted by both sides with the outrage it deserves. But once again, one side in the pursuit of political goals they agree with, has abused the powers of government for their own purposes and trampled the liberty of those with whom they disagree. There is nothing “democratic” about that.

If I'm not generating more wealth or utility than you're paying me in my check, then you can't afford to keep me on. End of story. So get to work.

I will NEVER reconcile with these scum.
Demanding accountability about a broken, fraudulent "election" process means you're "scum" in the eyes of the DU zombies. Good to know.
Of course, these reality-averse treasonous fuckwits claim to have seen Trump order everyone to attack the Capitol, so being irreconcilable with them means simply living in the real world.

Look, I don't bemoan the ILA prexy for being wealthy (assuming he legitimately earned his wealth and not by wetting his beak, nor being in the pocket of crooked pols and/or mobsters. Nor do I necessarily have animosity towards the rank and file for wanting a raise, especially when the economy is tanking and hard times are hitting everyone.
I disagree.
They've picked the absolute worst time to strike. At a time where millions are struggling to make ends meet, provide room and board for their families and fund daily necessities due to the shit economy brought forth by the 'leaders' their unions fund and vote for, they decide that because times are tough, they should take it upon themselves to make everyone's lives even harder so they can get more money due to said shit economy.
I say LOLGF. Unions are a drag on modern society and ruin things for the rest of us.

Adria Sheri English is the stripper making the claim about Trump being at a Diddy freak off party in the Hamptons in 2004.
She's the one who filed the lawsuit in federal court in Manhattan against Diddler shortly before his arrest.
NY Post has had at least two articles about her (not the Trump accusation) in the last few weeks if you wish to have a read.
Funny that she's never said anything about Trump until now.

Others such as, but not limited to, Interior, HUD, Transportation & Labor have many.
Among non-cabinet level agencies, the EPA has also has many programs, NASA only 2.
Even the independent, volunteer agency, Corporation for National and Community Service, 'AmeriCorps' (alumni Sen John Fetterman, D-PA) has a handful of programs; the National Science Foundation - 3, but three small Commissions and/or Authorities, 1 each.

Keep in mind the victims of hurricane Helene and the emergency responders. 🙏
