Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Corrupt Senile Democrats Staging an Insurrection at the Department of EducationThey want to see the Department of Education one last time before Trump shuts it down forever. Note that these lazy tax-lice promised that they would stand outside the doors "all night," and then went home by 11am or so. Notice that Maxine Waters badgers this Trusted Civil Servant again and again to keep re-showing her his ID, which he already showed her. Also note that she repeatedly cannot understand his clearly-spoken words. This is because she's senile and has been since the mid-90s. She still thinks that Ellen is straight.

Carried over:
H1Bs (as designed) are hired in specific work areas where companies demonstrated that there were less American or Green Card holders available to do the job. The program has been badly abused and needs a complete overhaul. I agree hands down but the concept is sound. I am hoping this can happen because we are in a race with the Chinese for technical domination. Right now we are 5-10 ahead but they are catching up. Are you willing to gamble your grandkids future just because you don't like foreigners. China is catching up because US firms keep hiring Chinese who then send their IP back to China. They do that because the Chinese are here on a student visa followed by an H1B visa. I've got nothing against foreigners but failing to recognize that a lot of these people are still interested in/required to aid the motherland is suicidal.

The core problem for China is that it is still an empire, and has no way of sharing that information or any sort of internal trust. The PLA is divided between regional commands because the strongest general can take the throne, which is the traditional way of transferring power.

This has happened at multiple agencies.
I...think...they are maybe, trying to point out that Musk's team at Doge has more access to the building than...members of congress? But the president, who is the head of the executive branch, and the head of Doge, and the head of USAID, and the department of education, decided to send Doge to these agencies. Those agencies, that report to the president, and his cabinet officials, get to decide who gets in. If congress wants to get in they can make an appointment. If they show up as a mob, well, they don't get it. This is not complicated. Would the president, or his cabinet secretaries, get to barge into Maxine waters office? Or onto the senate floor? Of course not. And I THINK these people don't actually know government works. Who's in charge of what or recognize the limits of their own power.

/Great Replacement Theory Fact? Posted by: ShainS -- Behold the Initiation of Trump's 'Operation Crossfire Boomerang' at February 07, 2025 02:24 PM (J32dL) --- The Cultural Revolution was a deliberate attempt by Mao to reboot Chinese politics. After the Great Leap Forward, he was discredited and weak, being pushed aside by other, more pragmatic leaders. He understood that the youth - who had no memory of his failures - could be rallied to him, and directed against the elites in an orgy of destruction. Tradition was evil, elders to be reviled, history should be destroyed and a new era launched. Sound familiar? Two factors stopped it. One was that American civil society is far more resilient than China, which had seen more than a century of turmoil. The others is that Americans have more privately owned firearms than most militaries. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at February 07, 2025 02:31 PM (ZOv7s) 180

As far as the people who used to live here? Well, you know, hey, sorry we massively pushed a totally non-addictive opiate on your communities that turned half your kids in to drug addicts.

Congressional oversight is conducted in hearings at the Capitol--hopefully Trump's executive offices will not blow Congress off as much as under "Biden". So, there could be a net increase in responsiveness to oversight, because there's not a whole lot Trump wants hidden from the public.

It's not so much that I hate Indian H1Bs as I hate watching US citizens get fired to open a job for them. I hated watching them cheat on every exam in college. I have having to clean up the mess from their work.
At my company we have scores of H1Bs from India. There's 1 who is competent and, in her defense, we hired her while our headcount was still growing. Since then we've laid off hundreds of citizens. Hundreds. But, to the best of my knowledge, not 1 H1B. And, since I'm in the trenches, I know that the quality of their work isn't the reason. Posted by: I used to have a different nic at February 07, 2025 02:38 PM (ExV1e) An American tech start up based in NYC who I do some work with is headed by a Ukrainian (here as a refugee) with an Israeli General Counsel (here on an e5 visa), and they recently laid off 4 of their 5 programmers (now that the "hard work" is done) and replaced them with immigrants. As far as I know, they used O1 visas, not H1B. But whatever, splitting straws here. It doesn't seem like a great system. Posted by: Harry Paratestes at February 07, 2025 02:46 PM (uCjyK) 293

People just don't get it until they see someone run a red light because the driver thinks their caste means they have the right of way. Oddly enough it's mostly the guys. I love working with Indian chicks, they're really chill as long as they aren't LARPing as princesses. Far too many of the men are entirely insufferable.

In SIM City they had garbage incinerators to produce power and dispose of waste. They even have that in Denmark.iirc
Posted by: Boss Moss That's not a bad idea, on the surface. But there are plenty of problems with that on the back end. The garbage has to be shredded to burn efficiently. This was a whole project that the City of Columbus tried years ago. They had regional shredders to accept trash, but the shredders kept getting broken because people put weird stuff like propane tanks and metal stuff in the garbage. Then it was found that the trash burning power plant was emitting dioxins, and there was a big "cancer cluster" down wind of the plant. You could have fixed this with injecting carbon into the stack gases to scrub the dioxins, lead, etc out. But by then, it was too late, the reputation was ruined. $250 million down the crapper. They do this a lot in Florida, because it has a shallow water table and there is really no place to landfill trash. Posted by: A face in the crowd.... at February 07, 2025 02:56 PM (vcOmj) 367

Meanwhile National Review is melting down at the fact that the pseudo Archivist of the National Archives is likely to lose her job. The comment section of NR on the topic is a hilarious reminder of why NR is irrelevant anymore.
The NT'ers in the comment section there just do not get it--our bureaucracy is full of Democrats in clown suits running around burning the country down--they ain't professionals. The author neatly skims over the fact that presidential papers actually belong to the president unless they compensate that president for their 'taking'. They do not belong to the 'archives'. Case is settled law from a precedent from Nixon's papers being seized illegally and then not returned to him for his presidential library. Also skims over the role that this archivist did in starting the whole stupid Jack Shit investigation into 'classified' documents while ignoring that Obama's documents have essentially been in a relatively unsecured storage facility and Biden's were in garages, offices next to Chi Coms, etc. and full of top secret and classified documents from their government service.

A big part of the reason Africa became such a big slave-trade continent is that the endless tribal and civil wars generated an endless stream of captured enemies to be sold in the slave markets.
Well that and various decisions and rulings by Christians that you cannot enslave your fellow Christian, so people started looking for loopholes. But Roots claims it was white folks raiding in to the deepest villages and taking slaves LOL Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at February 07, 2025 03:10 PM (2VST1) 469

I hope the ACLU's money stream is choked off immediately.
Yeah that would be a place I would definitely dig into at DOGE, how these activist groups get funded. Again, someone at DOGE came up with a program that digs through funding reports and found methods connecting various organizations that were previously not perceptible by humans because of their complexity. So I'm guessing we'll see a lot of that being unwrapped soon and the origins of money that seeps into places like Planned Parenthood, Southern Poverty and Law Center, ACLU, etc. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at February 07, 2025 03:12 PM (2VST1) 489

At some point if the strategy fails, and fails again without change you have to figure that they are lying about the strategy. I heard all those explanations in the US in the 90s about how the China bootstrap would cause big improvements AND make China western. Said it was nonsense then, and the stealing of tech and the making of competition helps only China now. But the idiot execs of the 90s are all retired and buying stock elsewere.
