Paramount Warns California: Stop Blocking Our Purchase of Warner Bros. Through Endless Lawfare Or We're Moving The Entire Multibillion Dollar Corporation to a Different State
California's taxation alone would make the move a good one -- Paramount pays an extra $500 million in taxes every year solely due to the excessive taxes California levies on them.
They have the idea they can tax and bully as much as they like because hey, what are you going to do, leave California? They don't seem to have noticed that a ton of tax-rich corporations have already done just that.David Ellison Reportedly Sets October 1 Deadline to Move Paramount Out of California Over Warner Bros. Lawsuit The escalating battle over Paramount Skydance's proposed acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery may now threaten something much larger than the merger itself: Hollywood's century-old position as the center of the American entertainment industry. Paramount CEO David Ellison has reportedly told his top executives that he is prepared to move the company out of California if the state's attorney general, Rob Bonta, refuses to negotiate a settlement in the lawsuit seeking to block Paramount's roughly $110 billion Warner Bros. Discovery acquisition. And according to a bombshell new report from Puck's Matthew Belloni, Ellison has put an actual date on the threat. October 1. Belloni reports that Ellison recently gathered Paramount's 12-member Executive Leadership Team for a meeting on the Paramount lot, where the CEO laid out what could become one of the most consequential corporate relocations in Hollywood history.Paramount would be the first mover here. Many other entertainment companies have surely considered leaving California, but they are stopped by fears that "it simply isn't done." Once Paramount proves it can be done, there would be a rush of companies leaving.
.... For decades, states including Georgia, Texas, and Tennessee have attempted to take pieces of Hollywood away from California. California may now be giving one of Hollywood's most powerful executives a reason to hand them something much bigger. October 1 suddenly looks like one of the most important dates on Hollywood's calendar.
According to two people Belloni says have direct knowledge of the meeting, Ellison told the executives that Paramount Skydance would relocate to Tennessee, Texas, Georgia, or potentially another state if Bonta does not come to the negotiating table. Even more significantly, Ellison reportedly said Paramount's board has already signed off on the move. That transforms what previously sounded like political pressure into something considerably more concrete. Ellison reportedly remains confident that Paramount will ultimately prevail against the lawsuit brought by California and 11 other states attempting to stop the Warner Bros. transaction. California Attorney General Rob Bonta officially led the coalition of 12 Democrat attorneys general in filing the antitrust lawsuit last month, arguing that the transaction would reduce competition in the entertainment industry. The federal Justice Department, meanwhile, had already cleared the merger. But Ellison reportedly told Paramount leadership that if the dispute is not resolved by October 1, the company will begin the process of leaving California. The significance of that date isn't arbitrary. Beginning after September 30, Paramount is expected to owe Warner Bros. Discovery shareholders approximately $650 million per quarter, commonly described as roughly $7 million per day, while the deal remains unfinished. A federal judge recently scheduled the antitrust trial to begin March 2, 2027, potentially leaving Paramount responsible for more than $1 billion in additional payments before the case is resolved. And if the Warner Bros. transaction ultimately collapses, Paramount could face a staggering $7 billion termination fee. Those numbers dramatically change the economics of the standoff. According to Belloni, Ellison told executives that rather than responding to those costs by slashing content spending or restructuring the company, relocation represents another option. This wouldn't simply mean changing the address on Paramount's corporate headquarters. Belloni reports that Ellison is developing a five-year plan under which the company's headquarters would move first, followed eventually by most studio jobs.
In other Failures of Hollywood news, Jessica Gao, the woke incompetent who was made the showrunner of "She-Hulk" as a pure DEI move, hasn't worked much since she spent $200 million on what ultimately turned out to be the World's Most Expensive Twitter Diss on the CHUDs. She probably won't be given such power again.
I'm not sure she "wrote" the episode as most people would think of "writing" something. TV shows have a showrunner, who acts as the main writer, and a writers room, all of whom contribute jokes and "beats" to a story. A specific person is assigned to "write" it but they're largely compiling what came out of the writers room. Who knows, maybe this was her idea and maybe she did write the episode mostly by herself. But I don't think that's how TV writing actually works. That's why they say she's the "credited writer." She got the credit, yeah, but we don't know how much she was responsible for.
She-Hulk Reportedly Had "Catastrophic" Test Screenings -- Then Jessica Gao Threatened to Quit Over Kevin Feige's Hat
While She-Hulk: Attorney at Law> was canceled after one season, the story behind its troubled production is becoming a cautionary tale for the ages. Tatiana Maslany's short-lived run as Jennifer Walters received renewed attention after X user QQ shared an amusing observation about the series. "The funniest story was how the creators originally conceived of She-Hulk as a case of the week type lawyer show," QQ wrote, "but then they got to the writer's room and they all said they don't know how to do that as if it was lost knowledge like the Roman aqueducts." ... Edgar Award-winning author Daniel Friedman used the post as a launching point to summarize She-Hulk's behind-the-scenes drama, from reportedly "catastrophic" test screenings to the showrunner threatening to quit over Kevin Feige's hat. How Jessica Gao Landed She-Hulk In his post, which quickly went viral, Friedman explained that She-Hulk showrunner Jessica Gao wrote the famous "Pickle Rick" episode of the animated series Rick and Morty. However, she reportedly clashed with the show's co-creator, Dan Harmon, over the decision to cast Susan Sarandon as a character Gao had written as Asian.
Harmon subsequently agreed to host a podcast with Gao titled Whiting Wongs. Friedman described it as "40 hours of him apologizing and learning about racism."This is and always was a dumb idea and it's what makes me think she wasn't really the main writer on "Pickle Rick." This is the kind of thing a n00b thinks is funny. Not only did she think this Basic Bitch idea was super-funny, she was actually willing to die on that hill. She actually quit the show to get this "joke" included.
The writing credit on the popular episode and the podcast appear to have raised Gao's profile. She subsequently landed the showrunner position on the upcoming She-Hulk, but Friedman wrote that "the production was extremely troubled." "In addition to not staffing lawyers or legal-drama writers on the show who could deliver on the Ally McBeal in the MCU' pitch, the She-Hulk show required -- as described by Gao in interviews -- an extraordinary level of direct personal involvement and micromanagement from Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige," Friedman said. Feige's attempts to course-correct throughout the process may not have been well received, although Gao reportedly described their professional relationship as supportive and collaborative. According to Friedman, test audience reactions to the series were "catastrophic," prompting Feige to intervene repeatedly and reshape the Disney+ series.
Any tensions surrounding the show's overall direction were mild compared to the bizarre dispute that reportedly erupted over the season finale. Jennifer concludes the series by breaking through the Disney+ interface and confronting K.E.V.I.N., an artificial intelligence responsible for controlling the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The robot was an unmistakable parody of Feige, whose trademark wardrobe includes a baseball cap. Gao wanted K.E.V.I.N. to wear a small black cap. Feige rejected the idea because he believed that placing a hat on a robot made no logical sense.
"I was incensed, and in this big meeting, in front of like 20 people, I said, 'Kevin, if you don't let me put a hat on that robot, then I quit,'" Gao told The Hollywood Reporter. Rather than backing down, Feige immediately appeared to accept her resignation. "Thank you very much, Jessica," he replied. "You've done some great work for us, and we really appreciate everything."Unfortunately a producer worked out a compromise where the stupid robot would have a mechanical brim over its eyes that looked sort of hat-like and she got to stay on the show.

Bonta needs to stop stalling, grandstanding and politicizing the proposed Paramount Skydance-Warner Bros. merger. And he needs to do it now.
The federal government in June approved the union.
Bonta, on the other hand, has led a group of 12 blue-state attorneys-general who’ve moved to block the pairing, or delay it long enough to let a future US president intervene.
While Bonta, et al, insist their stance is legal and not political, why is it then that only Democratic AGs have sued to stop the deal?
Is the problem, for these partisans, really that industry consolidation would hurt consumers? (As if this litigious, tax-dollar-wasting group has a care for the average Joe.)
Or is it that Paramount CEO David Ellison is seen by some as Trump-friendly?
The horror. Here we have a Hollywood executive who doesn’t march in lockstep with Democrats. (Or Republicans, really.)
To keep such an undesirable from gaining more reach, is Bonta willing to blow up Hollywood?

Whatever these nepo tech lords say in public is only the tip of the iceberg. It’s just the usual spin to blame CA government for what they’ve been planning to do all along with no oversight.
Nothing says negotiating in good faith like agreeing to a trial date and then trying to threaten people into settling a week later.
Good fucking luck to him convincing talent to come shlep all the way to Texas or Florida to collaborate with their executives. There’s a reason industries cluster in certain geographic regions.

In the early days he could project himself into the world he invented better. That ability fades with time for most writers or shows when actors get too influential.

I did read a lot of comments on Deadline from people very upset about the loss of jobs and less Hollywood content. Which is horrible because where will be get all of our shows lecturing us how to think.
And since 'She-Hulk' was mentioned, Amazon Prime still had 'Stargirl' which was on the CW and was a LOT of fun.
The father being the sidekick AND mentor was a nice twist. Also Solomon Grundy AND a kick-ass robot - yeah, it was a lot of fun.

Between Supergirl and a female hero in this movie,
the New Thing is Hollywood is-
Murder Chick Chic.
That is, a super-powered female commits straight-up murder buuuuut we're supposed to still think of her as a "hero".
I guess Grrrrl Boss wasn't quite enough, but Grrrrl Murder Boss...Now you got something!
We'll probably see plenty off this from here on out.
We're not going to have a return to normal culture before we all die are we?

I don't think it's killed quite yet. "The Odyssey" is still playing at my local theater and they're having a big attendance for "Spider-Man" , and it's not Hollywood per se but "Young Washington" is still playing at the movie theatre since July 4th, so some people still want to see movies. There seems to be a big interest in old movies from the 40's to the 60's at a movie theatre in the next town. My son loved seeing "Twin Peaks" prequel on the big screen.

"Just a gentle request
We all are going through some very trying times these days. The toxic, malevolent person in the White House is causing untold stress and turmoil. He is systematically trying to eviscerate our democracy and our Constitution, but let's please not let him divide us. These are very trying times. Nerves are on edge, frustration is off the charts, but let's support each other.
Everyone here is here because we love and support our country. That is what DU is all about. It's what makes DU great.
Lately, I have noticed a bit of hostility towards some of our members. That is not who we are and not what we need. We are stronger together. All of us are struggling. Let's embrace and support each other.
Thanks for reading."

The FBI and "Intelligence" Agencies Had Intel From 14 Different Sources About the Biden Family's Corruption. Wray Covered It Up and Claimed It Was All "Disinformation"
Christopher Wray was recommended to Trump by Super-Republican Chris Christie.
So you know he's a straight shooter.By the way: 0xferd Comma was spelled that way -- with an "e" instead of an "o" and a zero instead of a capital "O" so that investigators could not find references to it in emails and government servers. It was deliberately misspelled so that no evidence of the crime could be discovered through normal investigatory means.
The FBI and U.S. spy agencies received derogatory evidence about Joe Biden from 14 different informants but embarked on a secret operation to tamp down a Ukrainian corruption scandal engulfing his family during the 2020 election by formally designating Attorney General Bill Barr, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, key members of Congress and journalists as Russian disinformation "conduits," according to explosive intelligence community documents declassified by the White House. A spreadsheet that was recovered from U.S. intelligence agency files and made public Wednesday by the White House Government Transparency Task Force shows that spy agencies and the FBI created a list of more than six dozen prominent organizations, Americans or foreigners who became figures in the Biden family Ukraine scandal and the 2019 impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump. The spreadsheet neatly divided figures along political lines, with Democrats like the Bidens, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Barack Obama and George Soros listed as victimized "targets" of Russian disinformation and conservatives like Fox News, One America News, filmmaker Michael Caputo and Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani as "conduits" for disinformation. The FBI also labeled two of President Donald Trump's first-term Cabinet secretaries, Pompeo and Barr, as well as Republican Sens. Chuck Grassley, Ron Johnson and Lindsey Graham and House GOP committee chairmen Devin Nunes and Jim Jordan as "conduits" even while they all investigated whether the allegations of corruption against the Biden family were true. The designations were part of a secret counterintelligence operation codenamed "Round River" that was launched during the 2020 election by a task force of FBI analysts claiming to be fighting "malign foreign influence" in the 2020 election, according to an administration official. The Foreign Influence Task Force (FITF), based in FBI headquarters, concurred with each of the assessments in the spreadsheet with a "no objection" designation, the documents state. ... In some ways, the Round River operation is a mirror opposite of the Russia collusion probe known as Crossfire Hurricane in which the FBI pursued unsubstantiated allegations spread by Democrats that Trump and his allies conspired with Vladimir Putin to hijack the 2016 election. In Round River, FBI analysts sought to dismiss significant evidence in the bureau's possession, including Hunter Biden's own laptop, pointing to possible corruption by the Bidens. Documents released by the White House earlier this month exposed an investigation in 2017 codenamed "Oxferd Comma" alleging the newly elected president Trump may have been acting as a Russian asset when he fired then-Director James Comey even though the bureau's own evidence overwhelmingly showed at the time there was no collusion with the Kremlin.
That Task Force was run by the leftwing woman who admitted she was running a "shadow government" inside the one that the American people think is the real government.
Remarkably, the effort to portray the Biden scandal as Russian disinformation came even though confidential human sources working for the FBI and other agencies began reporting a steady stream of concerns starting in 2015 that Ukraine was possibly targeting the future first family for influence, the memos show. The FBI has identified at least 14 informants who were providing derogatory information on the Bidens, according to an FBI letter made public Wednesday. In that letter to the White House Government Transparency Task Force, FBI Director Kash Patel said the Foreign Influence Task Force was terminated on his watch and its activities are now under investigation.
Paul Sperry says that the criminal Chris Wray was behind this corrupt effort:
He said he shared concerns cited in a 2025 Director of National Intelligence memo declassified on Wednesday that Round River was used as a political tool to neutralize an alleged corruption narrative about Biden, the Democrats' 2020 presidential nominee, rather than to address true national security threats. "While our internal review of the FITF is not yet complete, we are investigating whether the FITF used information learned from the Round River assessment to undermine or influence ongoing investigations by only focusing on the subset of CHS's (Confidential Human Sources) involving the Bidens," Patel wrote, according to the letter reviewed by Just the News. "We remain concerned that defensive briefings to Congress may have been overly focused on just Biden and Ukraine rather than the balanced picture of all foreign threats," he added. Patel said the bureau is "firmly committed to identifying, investigating and holding accountable all abuses" that occurred during the Round River operation and to ensure "that future counterintelligence operations remain focused exclusively on legitimate foreign threats and are never used to advance political narratives." ... Grassley, the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman, and Johnson, the Senate Budget Committee chairman, have been investigating the Round River operation for years and have raised concerns the FBI may have used a 2020 defensive briefing to them as a way of thwarting their probe into Burisma and Biden family corruption allegations. In essence, the FBI Foreign Influence Task Force operation treated Barr's investigation into the Biden controversy as a potential disinformation threat, closely aligning with the Biden presidential campaign's and legacy media's efforts to portray the Burisma allegations as "conspiracy theories." That conspiracy theory storyline -- referred to in the documents as the "Ukraine narrative" -- persisted well beyond the 2020 election that put Biden into the White House until two IRS whistleblowers and some former Biden business partners came forward to Congress beginning in 2023 and shared evidence that Hunter Biden had committed crimes, including failing to pay taxes on monies he earned from Burisma, and sought to use his father's influence to help the Ukrainian energy company Burisma.
...
The intelligence review pinpointed the start of Round River to December 2019, just as Trump's Ukraine impeachment proceedings were raging, and gave a succinct description of its mission. "Around December 2019, the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force -- Russia (FITF-R) unofficially formed a group of analysts who utilized internal systems to gather any/all derogatory information previously reported by confidential human sources (CHSs) on Joseph Biden corruption and other Ukraine-related topics (known as the Ukraine narrative) including Burisma, Hunter Biden, Mykola Zlochevsky, Ukraine interference in 2016 US presidential election to red flag the reporting as Russian disinformation," the DNI report said. Remarkably, the DNI report alleges, the Round River team amended each of three informant files to portray their long-term reporting as false. "The team of analysts had administrative accesses to all reporting and drafted intelligence products that were later added to each CHS file to show the reporting was deemed Russian disinformation," the DNI memo stated. "The FITF-R team also provided defensive briefings to any Congressional member who obtained reporting related to any aspect of the Ukraine narrative."
Paul SperryFormer Trump advisor and Deep State target Peter Navarro says we have to put all the conspirators under oath and compel them to admit the conspiracy or go to prison for perjury and obstruction.
@paulsperry_ BREAKING: Just-declassified FBI docs reveal Dir. Wray during the 2020 election classified Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, Victoria Nuland and Amos Hochstein, along w/ George Soros, as "targets" of Russian "disinformation" in the Burisma scandal, while journalist John Solomon was branded a "conduit" of "disinformation"
On May 16, 2017, the FBI took one of the most extraordinary steps in its history: It opened a full investigation of the sitting American president. Newly declassified documents released by the White House say the bureau asked whether the president "is or was directed by, controlled by, and/or coordinated activities with" Vladimir Putin's Russia -- and whether he "obstructed and/or conspired to obstruct" the FBI's own investigation. That the FBI had targeted President Trump was reported in 2019. What was missing was the paperwork -- the opening document, the names on it, the chain of command.Meanwhile, "Fusion Ken" Dilanian, a stenographer and PR manager for the leftwing conspiracy at the heart of the CIA, says that Trump is running the DOJ like "Russia and China" for investigating the people he works for.
The May 16 "opening communication" lists FBI General Counsel James Baker and Counterintelligence Division Assistant Director E.W. "Bill" Priestap as the approving officials. The investigation was opened at Priestap's direction, in consultation with Baker's Office of General Counsel; and Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe personally notified Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. The next day -- May 17 -- Rosenstein appointed Robert Mueller special counsel, and the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax took flight.
James Comey figures in the hoax, too. He went from fired FBI director to a central witness. The FBI used Comey's account of his talks with Trump -- and Trump's firing of Comey -- to support the obstruction theory. Another critical layer has now been exposed. The FBI says its predicate for the probe rested on "predetermined criteria established by the Crossfire Hurricane investigative team" based on an assessment of supposedly "reliable lead information."
Who built that predicate? Peter Strzok, a central figure in Crossfire Hurricane, and FBI lawyer Lisa Page were close to the investigation. When Page asked whether Trump would become president, Strzok replied: "No. No he won't. We'll stop it." Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz later said that message was not merely indicative of a biased state of mind but implied a willingness to take official action to affect a candidate's electoral prospects. Yet the actual drafter of the opening communication remains redacted. That name should be released. So should the names of everyone who formulated, reviewed or supplied the "reliable lead information" used to put a sitting president under investigation -- along with the communications among Priestap, Baker, McCabe and the investigative team, McCabe's record of what he told Rosenstein, what Rosenstein knew before he appointed Mueller and what Mueller did, if anything, to independently validate the extraordinary allegation he was tasked to investigate.
...
It's past time to put those who built and ran this Russia hoax under the microscope. Sen. Chuck Grassley's Senate Judiciary Committee and Chairman Jim Jordan's House Judiciary Committee hold the tools; Grassley has been a bulldog, Jordan far less so. Subpoena Priestap, Baker, McCabe, Rosenstein and Comey for sworn, public testimony. ... The officials who set the Russia hoax in motion and carried it forward have names. Now put them under oath. And do it before the November election.
A so-called journalist who secretly let the intelligence apparatus feed him false narratives and shape his stories is probably not the ideal person to lecture anyone about institutions being “run like China.” https://t.co/gpmMwrfaHR pic.twitter.com/AT7XjI3hAh

Isn't this standard practice for the government when they want to conceal something from FOIA requests?
The standard method would be to search for properly spelled words (and maybe common alternate misspellings).
They go out of their way to obscure the keywords in documents so that they will only turn up in a deliberate search by those who "need" those documents AND know how to find them already.

I knew doctors who were deeply against abortion. BUT to be part of a hospital system as an ob/gyn that was a requirement (willingness to perform abortions at the level the hospital does).
I knew excellent ob/gyns who had to switch to just gyn because of this, or move to a Catholic hospital, or just retire. It's been this way since before O-care btw.

Wray was terrible, and Christie was even worse, but there is an explanation of how the two knew each other. Wray was the lawyer who (successfully) defended Christie against those Bridgegate charges that got two of his subordinates into legal hot water. Christie probably meant well in the beginning. We know, of course, how that turned out.

And as always the lefties saying you don't understand the law it doesn't allow abortion until birth and the lefties saying abortion until birth is good just ignored each other not a one calling the other out while they both bitched at the normal women disgusted by this...

Our wonderful White House Press Secretary, and one of my most trusted aides, Karoline Leavitt, will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect! Karoline will now be one of my top outside advisors, and an influential voice within the Republican Party, as we work to defy History, and conclusively win the Midterm Elections. Karoline has been a real leader in the White House, and has done a phenomenal job fighting for Justice, Liberty, and Freedom, since 2018, including our Historic Re-Election Campaign of 2024. Karoline has been one of the best White House Press Secretaries in the History of the Office. Thank you, Karoline, for a job well done! President DONALD J. TRUMP

And yet, I think the Bidens & the Biden autopen minions (and more) were, and remain, Working Families Party socialists.
Biden coveted what Sanders but attacked his presidential campaign differently. Joey emphasized traditional ties to 'working-class families' and trade unions, and held events with distinct labor presence.
Sanders had long built a strong pro-labor platform that helped him earn notable endorsements from national unions. He's still raking them in for his endorsees.
Sanders supports a Green New Deal. So did Biden.

How are the moderates "acknowledging" black voters in ways the DSA isn't? Other than not specifically pandering to them with these platitudes or with the stoking of racial grievances ala Jasmine Crockett?
No, the dynamic here is that the DSA isn't really trying to hone in on any races votes specifically, and the black vote is more conservative, so they break for the "moderate" candidate
Moderates don’t boil everything down to class consciousness. I'm Indian American and my community is majority maybe Pete Buttigieg level liberal. I see this trend with a lot of minority communities.
Isnt race a distraction created by the capitalists, and class the truly important thing?
We do not live in a post-racial society yet.
DSA types fail to understand socialism isn’t un popular with white America because capitalist realism or whatever its because they think communism equals gay trans, and race mixing the greatest evil of all to them

I was watching a video by Jason Pargin who is a somewhat reasonable leftist on how race relations were better in the 80s/90s.
He's jumped on the general leftwing bandwagon of, "No things were worse then its just no one black or white knew it at the time!" which is another bit of stupid cognitive dissonance

and while immoral the former group is understandable - why not just steal from your neighbors instead of working yourself?
But the latter group? I'm surrounded by these people. They are in the top 10% of wage earners and live in multimillion dollar houses and for some reason believe they are working class so they'll get MORE stuff when the revolution comes

I remember diving into some act blue donations and it is hillarious how obvious it is fraud.
$5-$12 donations at random intervals to various candidates. Really? Not weekly, not biweekly, not monthly just random intervals of trivial amounts and thousands of people doing it.
Makes no sense from a real individual donations perspective - you aren't giving a bulk sum and you aren't donating based off of how you got paid.
But it makes perfect sense if someone is laundering large amounts of money through a bunch of nominal individual citizen accounts...

Massachusetts Becomes the Tenth Blue State to Authorize Abortions Up Until the Moment of Crowning
Safe, legal, and rare you guys.
Democratic Gov. Maura Healey was met with applause and smiles as she signed away Massachusetts' gestational limits on abortion, making the deep-blue state the 10th to permit the procedure up to birth. Under the Prioritizing Patient Access to Care Act, health care workers will have greater discretion in determining whether to perform an abortion later in pregnancy, without facing legal penalties under the state's previous restrictions. Healey said the law is intended to ensure families facing medical complications late in pregnancy can abort their babies in Massachusetts rather than having to travel out of state. Those complications can include maternal health complications and fatal diagnoses. During the bill signing, Healey pledged to keep abortion safe, legal and accessible in Massachusetts for as long as she remains governor.Oh, they dropped the "rare" and replaced it with "accessible," meaning "convenient." Which is the opposite of "rare." 7-Elevens are not rare.
Fox News is so liberal. There is no "can" here. Late-term abortions must involve dismembering and decapitating the baby, because the baby is now too large to pass through the birth canal without an actual birth.
"We believe that health care decisions should be made between women and families and their doctors, not politicians," Healey said. "Abortion will remain safe. It will remain legal, and it will remain accessible here in Massachusetts. That's my commitment to you." The bill is scheduled to take effect in 90 days. Previously, state law generally prohibited abortions after 24 weeks, with limited exceptions. Massachusetts now joins Alaska, Colorado, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon and Vermont in removing gestational age limits on abortion, along with the District of Columbia. ... SBA Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser condemned the signing of the "egregious" law in a statement Monday, arguing that late-term abortions can involve dismemberment of the fetus.
"It should shock the conscience that tens of thousands of unborn Americans are barbarically dismembered limb by limb and torn apart every single year," she said. "Sadly, that number will only increase with Gov. Healey's approval of the Abortion Up Until Birth Bill. The GOP must abandon the 'leave it to the states' position -- a stance that permits egregious late-term abortion laws like this one -- and advance national protections for unborn children." ... The other countries that allow such procedures include Australia, Canada, China, Guinea-Bissau, Mexico, South Korea and Vietnam, according to SBA.
A blue state just legalized abortion up until birth.

But nah. The lefty solution to unwanted pregnancies is to murder the baby and in many cases carve it up like bacon.

And there's evidence that pain can be felt at as little as 15 weeks, maybe even less.
Pre Dobbs, my state required that the abortionist at least cause "fetal demise" before performing a D&C, which involved injecting potassium chloride into the heart, digoxin into the amniotic fluid, or severing the cord. PP forum shopped for a friendly federal judge and got the law struck down on the grounds that it created an unreasonable burden for abortionists to learn those procedures.

Correct. This procedure is *at least* as dangerous to the mother, leaving aside the guaranteed fatality to the baby, as any complications would be.
It's disturbing how many doctors in gynecology act like abortion is the one and only solution to all difficulties. There's a reason Hippocrates specifically forbade it along with the general "do no harm". Apparently, many medical schools no longer administer the oath at all. Something I think prospective patients should have a right to know.

I think three reasons:
1. Outright laziness and procrastination.
2. There are women who like the "thrill" and attention of being pregnant, but aren't really committed to the baby. In the first 6 months, it's not really "real." But as the due date approaches, it becomes very real -- too real. So they panic and do the unthinkable.
3. I think the baby daddy plays into #2. He too might be caught up in being a father -- or at least feigning it -- until shit gets real. Then he's out the door. Girl is now abandoned, panics, and does the unthinkable.

Unfortunately, the Supreme Court already ruled against that possibility.
When they overturned Roe v. Wade-- which set a national policy for allowing abortion-- the Supes basically said, "Nope, Roe v. Wade is unconstitutional, becuase there can't be any nationwide law regarding abortion." That ruling cuts both ways. It eliminated Roe v. Wade thereby allowing many pro-lifer states t set pro-life policies, but it also by the same measure allow pro-abortion states to set whatever pro-abortion laws they want.
It's just going to have to be a state-by-state battle from here on out. We're probably going to have to endure living in a country with states that allow abortion up until birth..

That's what happened with his new cat. The daughter brought it home, it was acted crazy and weird, they called up the pound, who said, "Oh, yeah, when we fixed her, she was about to give birth, so we terminated it. Mama cats kinds go crazy for a whole when that happened because their hormones spin out of control."
He told me all this as we watched the cat indeed acting insane in his yard - -yowling, digging random holes and looking in them (apparent for the lost kittens), alternately hissing and puring and nothing, etc. It was really sad to watch.
Anyway, the whole pintis, while telling me this, he dug himself into a verbal hole and couldn't think of a word other than "abortion" to describe what the pund had done to the cat. But he didn't want to say it.

The GOP never did the rhetorical or intellectual work on repealing Roe v. Wade--even though every Republican running for federal office since Reagan promised to repeal it.
Because none of them really believed what they said.
And none of them ever expected it to happen.
But, boy-howdy, what a nice, throw-away line they all could use to pretend to be conservative and get the vote of the religious.
I mean, look at how they all sputter and short-circuit now when asked now about abortion?
All they ever had was repeating the phrases someone else coined--they never believed abortion was an evil.

Donald J. Trump

But these same conservative women are first to be all up in the news when they're the ones who need an abortion. You know, cuz the only moral abortion is their abortion.
By leaving it up to the states the issue has become even more polarized. Perfectly legal women's health in one state can get you prison time or even the death penalty in another. We won't last long as a country like this. TRUST DOCTORS.
Look at Gov Healey's signing ceremony. Are we sure this is good for women’s health I don’t see any men in the video making decisions?!?! /s
Our side tried mightily to compromise and reason this out to a system with checks and balances. The other side just said, "Fuck you. My way or nothing. And, my way is nothing." Reap what you sowed.

We will never get anything approaching accurate statistics for late-term because the NPC coding is that 100% of late-term abortions are because of serious health issues, and not at all because of the "mother's" convenience.

In the LA mayor race and a number of other high profile elections they told us the flood of votes for the leftwing candidate was because those are last minute mail in voters.

Fat teenage black girls who didn't even realize they were pregnant. That's what accounts for at least half of these 8th-month abortions.
The whole argument about "doctors are afraid to perform necessary medical procedures because they're afraid of being accused of performing a late-term abortion" is a total lie, a fake narrative. That almost never happens. What does happen is that dumb girls don;'t even know they;'re pregnant (or don't want to admit it to themselves or anyone else) until they eventually realize that pretending the problem doesn't exist doesn't make the problem go away.
But the Left doesn't mind this fact at all because the whole original purpoe of legalizing abortion was to decrease the number of black babies, a key part of Margret Sanger's eugenics movement.

No.
Why are the resources of the state being used to protect them from the consequences of their choices?
Your daughter is not going to suffer that fate, why do you support laws that reward other women who've made poor choices?
If women can terminate the baby, men should have the right to terminate any support.

There's no way you make it nearly that far in pregnancy without knowing. The Left just wants no restrictions or consequences for their initiatives, and aborting babies is one of their touchstones. How the managed to brainwash so many women into supporting it to this extreme is horrifying. I get women wanting access to early abortion, even if they think it’s wrong, but third trimester? Barbaric.

(AI Overview) Recent large-scale clinical studies publish that when extremely premature infants born at 23 weeks receive active, aggressive neonatal resuscitation and treatment, their survival-to-discharge rate is approximately 55% to 58%.
Survival chances increase incrementally with every single day a pregnancy continues at this stage. A baby born at 23 weeks and 6 days has a statistically higher chance of survival than a baby born at 23 weeks and 0 days.
Among the 23-week micro-preemies who survive, studies track that about half grow up with no or mild neurological disabilities, while the remaining portion may face moderate to severe long-term health challenges (such as chronic lung issues or developmental delays).
---
According to the Pennsylvania Department of Health and the state's Abortion Control Act, abortion is legally restricted after 23 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy (often cited as a 24-week limit), unless two physicians certify it's necessary for the health of mother.
I don't agree at all with 24 weeks for a routine limitation, either.

Not just for women, and I don't want to put it all on them because many are young and fooled when they have abortion, but on society as a whole.
A human life (the most precious thing in the world) is totally dependent on the mother, but they have to make some sacrifice and pay the piper for their own decision to have sex. They can accept responsibility and some sacrifice (honestly 9 months is not a life sentence.) They can accept providence and the path their life is now on.
Or they can kill it. Easy peasy.

We spent weeks discussing her baby and our services, while her "friends" at work tried to collect enough money to send her to another state to kill the child. No medical problems, no reason other than "I'm all alone and I can't have a baby right now."
But eventually she softened. I remember the moment when she looked at us and said, "It will be just the two of us, but I will do this for my daughter."
A few months ago I had the privilege of attending this little girl's first birthday party. I love this work!

The odds of this happening are beyond rare, but let’s say it happens. So what? That baby is viable. It is a known consequence of certain behaviors.
I might suggest if you are able to get pregnant, maybe don’t have sex unless you are ready to have a baby.

That makes zero sense, though, because if there issues affecting either the mother or the baby, you can have a c section more quickly than an abortion, and both parties are saved. You are not saving the mother from delivering a dead baby with this, either. Because at that stage, there is none of the dismembering (this whole thing makes me want to throw up) that happens in early abortions. The baby is given a shot into its heart, they wait for the baby to die, then they induce labor. Barbaric isn’t even close to what this is.

Several times pro-life groups and legislators have really tried to engage with pro-aborts on life/health of the mother exemptions.

This is where I'm at in the national discussion. It's horrific that Leftists are killing their own children. I mourn for the suffering of those children. I have done everything I can to convince them to stop killing their children.
But still they insist on killing their own children, and there's nothing more I can do about it. So I look for the silver lining, and take comfort in the fact that they are killing off their own voter base.
If that sounds harsh, talk to them about it, not to me. I'm not the one encouraging the slaughter.

Here's another angle: can a medical provider opt out of performing abortions? I know in the past people have been required to participate or lose their job and/or license.
Because abortion "choice" only works one way.
Posted by: Emmie at August 12, 2026 03:18 PM (OlzlW)
__________
The idea among the aborticomaniacs is that you cannot be allowed to opt out. That you cannot tell a pregnant woman that there are alternatives to having an abortion. That abortions need not be performed by physicians. And so on.

And yet the rare 'Born Survivors.'
The story features Eva Clarke, Hana Berger Moran, and Mark Olsky, three of the youngest Holocaust survivors. Their mothers hid their pregnancies in Auschwitz before giving birth in horrific conditions—in a labor camp, on a death train, and at the Mauthausen concentration camp—just before liberation in April 1945.

They KNOW at 20wks any issues with the baby. They know with sonograms and genetic testing. To then carry a baby another 20wks to die at birth is beyond all I care to contemplate. They will answer to God. All of them.
Someone would want that baby. The ONE time a mother with a premature baby at our med center, she was induced to DELIVER the premie. A rare time the mother had HELLP Syndrome (involving clotting and potential liver failure). Both lived.
DO NOT believe the bs about "saving the mother."
It is not "women's rights" it is barbaric genocide.
Please give $ or time to pregnancy resource centers, many supported by churches. To help unwed mothers or those in poverty considering abortions.

Abdulrahman El-Sayed: My Obligation Is to Follow Sharia Law Until the Day I Die
We may have lost Francesca, but we still have Abdulrahman.
Revealed: El-Sayed Proclaimed 'Obligation' To Follow Sharia Law Until the Day He DiesIt's all taqiyya all the time.
'When I die and I stand before God ... I don't want to say I did it the easy way instead of the Shariah-compliant way,' El-Sayed told the New York Times in 2009 Andrew Kerr and Jessica Schwalb
Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed once declared his sacred "obligation" to follow Sharia law in every aspect of his life until he meets his maker on the day he dies, according to unearthed comments he made to the New York Times in 2009 as a young man buying his first home. "Ultimately, the question is, when I die and I stand before God and go through everything I did in my life, I don't want to say I did it the easy way instead of the Shariah-compliant way. Not because of fear but because of obligation," said El-Sayed, who the Times identified at the time as a 24-year-old medical student and Rhodes scholar who had just taken out a "Sharia-compliant" mortgage to purchase a $123,000 condominium in Ann Arbor. Sharia, or Islamic religious law, sets strict rules for living that include harsh restrictions on women and gruesome, medieval-era forms of criminal justice. Sharia law also prohibits the paying or earning of interest, a restriction that has led some banks to offer special mortgages for devout Muslims, like El-Sayed, which tack onto the principal what a typical borrower would pay in interest across the life of the loan. The young El-Sayed's expression of lifelong devotion to Sharia law takes new meaning following his narrow primary victory last week and raises the question of how much Sharia law continues to guide him. El-Sayed has played a delicate balancing act on the campaign trail when it comes to his personal faith. While he has embraced his status as a Muslim man before voters, the progressive Democrat often frames his faith in broad brush strokes to avoid specifics. In October 2025, for example, El-Sayed told Religion News Service that his faith "orients me to try and be a better person" and to "treat people -- all people -- with dignity and humanity and respect." But El-Sayed has bristled when pressed on the topic of Sharia law. During his failed 2018 campaign for Michigan governor, El-Sayed denied ever saying he was "Sharia-compliant" during an interview with the Jewish conservative journalist Laura Loomer--a strong critic of Islam--before cutting the interview short and scolding his staff for not stopping it sooner. El-Sayed also rejected allegations that he intended to subvert the Constitution and implement Sharia law. A documentary about his 2018 gubernatorial bid shows him telling the filmmakers not to shoot a bookshelf in his home that contained the Quran and controversial works about Islam, including Cutting the Fuse, a 2010 book that argues that suicidal terrorism is driven by foreign military occupation, not Islamic extremism. El-Sayed's private bookshelf also contained a copy of A Thematic Commentary on the Qur'an written by Muslim Brotherhood member Sheikh Mohammed al-Ghazali, who said "the refusal of implemenation [sic] of sharia is apostasy" as he testified in defense of 13 Islamic terrorists who had gunned down an Egyptian professor who called for the separation of church and state in Egypt. Al-Ghazali testified during the 1993 trial that the slain professor was "without doubt" an infidel and said most Islamic scholars would agree that such apostates should be killed, but that he personally believes the professor should have received a life sentence instead, the Washington Post reported. "You're going to want to not get these things in the shot," El-Sayed said in the documentary, How To Fix A Primary, as he pointed to his bookshelf which contained al-Ghazali's writings. "We're trying to keep the shot secular."
... El-Sayed is also heavily invested in so-called Sharia-compliant investment funds managed by Amana Mutual Funds, whose late cofounder and chairman, Yaqub Mirza, was identified in a 1988 FBI memo as one of several "members and leaders of the IKHWAN," which is shorthand for the Muslim Brotherhood. El-Sayed reported in his latest financial disclosure that he and his wife own between $150,000 and $425,000 in Amana's funds, which excludes investments in companies that earn more than 5 percent of their revenue from "haram sources" including interest, gambling, alcohol, tobacco, pornography, and pork. In 2002, federal antiterrorism agents raided Mirza's home as part of a wider antiterror operation against the Safa Group, a cluster of Islamic entities based in Virginia, the Wall Street Journal and Washington Post reported. No charges were filed, and Amana Funds itself was spared serious scrutiny during the probe, according to a local report.Scott Jennings notes something it's hard to miss: these foreign anchor-babies sure do seem to hate football and holidays and fireworks and all the little details of basic
normie American culture. Why it's almost as if they seek to overthrow it and replace American culture with their own shithole country foreign "culture."
OvertonAbdulrahman's wing-man Hasan Piker sure doesn't seem to like anything about America:
@overton_news
The CNN panel didn't like hearing it, but Scott Jennings went ahead and said it anyway. Jennings says the attacks on American holidays from socialist candidates like Francesca Hong and Abdul El-Sayed are actually a window into something much deeper. And when Kaitlan Collins tried to downplay El-Sayed's comments about July 4th, Jennings fired right back. The communists can no longer hide their hatred of America and all of its traditions. JENNINGS: "When you're so crazy that Bernie Sanders and AOC won't even endorse you, you're pretty far out there!" "I think these holiday conversations are actually valuable." "She hates Thanksgiving. Today, our own k-file here at CNN uncovered the fact that over in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed wants to get rid of the 4th of July." "And I think the reason these things..." COLLINS: "I think he said we should get rid of fireworks." JENNINGS: "He was very critical of the 4th of July." COLLINS: "Getting rid of fireworks is different than getting rid of the 4th of July." JENNINGS: "I think you're downplaying the message..." "I think these are windows into the souls of these anti-American, radical communists." "If you hate Thanksgiving and you hate the 4th of July, what you're really saying is I hate some of the pillars that undergird American culture." "And how are you going to have a conversation with a voter about affordability or public safety or anything else, if you're trying to get rid of Thanksgiving and the 4th of July?" "I mean, if I was Christmas and Easter I wouldn't be feeling too comfortable right now if these people win!"
Remember when Hasan Piker said this?

"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of liberalism they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program."
That quote, unfortunately did not account for the abject stupidity of today's "Socialists" (who probably can't even define Socialism coherently). It, also, did not fully account for the indocrinization of "higher" education...where gullible students took the words of the radical instructors as gospel without parsing out their meaning. In Reagan's time that would surely have been accurate. Today, situational awareness, has been replaced by regurgitation without subterfuge.

Can't outlaw it if every law runs headlong into religious protections. You'd have to dislodge it from a religious context to do so - nearly impossible.

Once they've saturated an area (e.g., Dearborn), they can flip the switch and turn the entire area into Islam-central.

What else are they gonna do? They're lazy, they're stupid, they're bored, and modern social media gives them a convenient outlet to indulge their narcissistic resentment and envy.
Plus, with "influencers" like Piker, they are whores trolling for likes, so they latch on to whatever The Thing is at the moment. The more extreme the better. See also Cucker Carlson, Me-again Kelly, and CandyAss Owens.
If you look at Piker's older vids, his gimmick was over-the-top macho he-mannish posturing. That gimmick wore out, so he found another. Virulent America- and Jew-hate is big business now. When this wears out, he'll move on again.

The bad news is, the DEMs prolly hold this seat. The GOP has a pretty good nominee (Tom Tiffany), & he likely would've beaten Wong.
But no matter how bad Crowley (D) turns out to be, I'm still glad Wong lost.

Out in the light, the Russian officer has a red handprint on his face.
The old lady thinks: "What a brave girl, slapping that rude officer who kissed her."
The young woman thinks: "Why on earth did the officer try to kiss the old lady?"
The Russian thinks: "That fool of a Pole kissed the girl, and she hit me by mistake!"

Pueblo had a rich tapestry of ethnic groups, but they were all participants in the general community. They enjoyed sharing their cultural heritage with everyone else.

Wednesday, August 12, 2026
A two-count indictment was unsealed charging 11 individuals with conspiring, over the course of more than a decade, to orchestrate more than 1,000 sham marriages to fraudulently obtain immigration status for foreign nationals, primarily citizens of the People’s Republic of China. Some individuals paid up to $100,000 per sham marriage, according to the indictment.

Yeah, sounds like a Muslim who is saying he tries to live by the principles of his religion? This isn't much different from a devout Christian saying they want to live a Biblically-driven life. As long as they govern in a way to allows freedom of religion, it's not a specific concern.

Yeah, he’s a Muslim, so he plans to follow the tenets of Islam for the rest of his life. Is…is that shocking? Do you think, say, James Talarico plans to follow Christian law until the day he dies? Would that surprise you?
Islam is no more one monolithic religion that makes every Muslim believe exactly the same thing, than Christianity is.
Just as there are progressive, modern Christians and rigid, dogmatic Christians who have different ways of living a Christian life, there are modern progressive Muslims.

They hate them because these are happy, celebratory holidays where people are encouraged to get together, eat, drink, have fun, and shoot off fireworks.
These commies are bitter, resentful, jealous, anti-social incel lunatics who can't stand other people having fun. Remember when the left was desperate to shut down Thanksgiving, fucking 8 months into covid? Same motivation.
Look at Islam itself. Very little happy celebration. Lotsa mourning, fasting, abstaining, punishing, and forceful conforming. Being Muslim is more like being in a prison camp than any other religion.

My take is the reason many affluent, white women vote Dem because of social issues like abortion and just basically liberal attitudes about a lot things. At least in my circle, that's what it's really about.

After Polls Predicted a 97% Chance of a Double-Digit Victory for Francesca Hong, Missing USB Drives and Late Ballot Shenanigans Hand the Establishment Candidate the "Win"
Did they steal it? I don't know, but the socialists have got to be wondering that.
And I encourage that speculation!OSZThe also leftwing candidate, Crowley, actually abandoned the race but re-entered it after Establishment types insisted he get back in to stop Hong. He wound up "winning" by around 3000 votes out of more than half a million. I keep clicking on articles to see if there's an update showing that Hong won. Alas, it seems we've lost this one.
@OpenSourceZone Last 5 Wisconsin Governor Democratic Primary Polls State Navigate: 🔵 Hong +22
Public Policy Polling: 🔵 Hong +18
Marquette University: 🔵 Hong +25
State Navigate: 🔵 Hong +29
Public Policy Polling: 🔵 Hong +20 Results (88% Reporting): 🟡Crowley +0.5
Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley narrowly upset Democratic socialist Francesca Hong in Wisconsin's Democratic gubernatorial primary Tuesday night, despite polls showing Hong in front by double-digits in the final stretch before polling day. Crowley's campaign said the 37-year-old state legislator and member of the Democratic Socialists of America called Crowley early Wednesday to concede the race. Hong trailed her rival by more than 3,200 votes out of more than 787,000 ballots cast as of 6 a.m. ET., a margin of 0.41 percentage points. Under Wisconsin law, Hong could have requested a recount since she trailed by under one percentage point, but would have had to pay for it since her deficit was greater than 0.25 percentage points. State law does not provide for automatic recounts in close races.She chose not to. I think, in the end, she wanted to lose the primary, because that allows her to continue on as an agitator and podcast goon. Had she won the primary and then been blown out in the general, she'd be excluded by the whole rotten Democrat Party, including the socialists, who need to pretend they're #Winning.
Hong immediately endorsed the guy who cheated to beat her because she has a Coward's Heart. But that doesn't stop us from crying #RiggedElection on her behalf.
Crowley, 40, was the late choice of Wisconsin's Democratic establishment after Lt. Gov Sara Rodriguez and her predecessor Mandela Barnes dropped out of the race in recent weeks. Crowley had initially dropped out and endorsed Rodriguez last month, but re-entered the race in an effort to stop Hong after Barnes quit. ... Crowley, who will face GOP Rep. Tom Tiffany in the November general election, would be the Badger State's first ever black governor.

Even though progressives say election fraud is impossible, they're saying Hong lost because of election fraud.
The establishment screwed her. They're livid.
I'm sure the 49% of Dems who voted for Hong will definitely turn out in November, though.

The clear, obvious favorite of the base is tossed aside for the establishment's choice.
A non-zero percentage of Crockett's voters just AREN'T going to vote in Texas. A non-zero percentage of them will vote against Talarico for spite.
Likewise Wisconsin.
I think we've got a small to mediium chance there.

Monday after work I made the mistake of trying to run in the Florida heat. I had been doing this but previous days were either cloudy or rainy or breezy which somewhat mitigates the heat. But Monday…. None of those things plus bright sun, no clouds. It was absolutely brutal; I’d planned to go 10K but turned around at 2 miles and felt like I was gonna die the last half mile…. I felt crappy the rest of the night. Heat is dangerous….

Election Time on You Tube which does a lot of compiling of polling data and had the presidential prediction down pat about a month and a half before the election - only has Flanagan up about 3 points, and felt her support was soft. He still has her winning - it is Minnesota - but isn't sure Tafoya couldn't catch her.

Wow. Two things stand out to me:
1. Flanagan can barely speak a coherent sentence. There's more "uhhs" and "ahhs" in that transcript than real words.
2. The Somalis in the video have noticeable utter contempt for her. Flanagan is sucking their dicks with fawning praise, and they're just standing there stonefaced like "will this stupid white bitch just shut the fuck up." Even when Flanagan calls "Nimka" out by name, Nimka barely acknowledges it.
It's embarrassing to prostrate yourself before 13th century savages who hate your guts.

The Establishment doesn't have to be perfect, their nominees fail up all day
we've moved the goal posts so far that an establishment candidate with the full force behind them beating a progressive who got no major national endorsements from AOC or Bernie is an upset? That's a horrible sign for the establishment
those Hong +30 polls were largely while Crowley had dropped out of the race, meaning it was basically a single leftist candidate, a handful of moderates with no traction, and ~40% undecideds. Then Crowley reentered the race and solidified the center-left vote.
Can't wait to see the "far left" be the fall guys if the Dems lose this one. The centrist narrative will be that DSA commies stayed home like some disobedient children.
She was super close. This is a victory. Great work in WI, reds!

The odd thing is that Crowley is just as commie as the Red Whore. There's no daylight between them on any material issues. It's just that he hides his radicalism better than she does.
I think that's part of the reason she took a dive. DSA wasn't that upset about Crowley winning, because (i) they know Hong is a repulsive candidate with way too much smelly baggage and (ii) Crowley is on their side anwyay.

Wednesday Morning Rant
There are a number of examples. The new datacenters being built are interesting in their own right, as it is often difficult to determine who is paying for them. Many of these new datacenters don't have the company's name on the door. Or the paperwork. Or the balance sheet. These data centers are being built through "special-purpose vehicles," or SPVs. Datacenter SPVs are standalone psuedo-corporations created to finance, build and sometimes operate a datacenter on behalf of its actual owner. For example, take a deal called Beignet, the SPV building a new Meta datacenter in Louisiana. Meta owns 20% of the SPV, and put up $1.3 billion. Private equity outfit Blue Owl put up $3 billion and owns 80% of the SPV. Combined, they put up around 14% of the total $30 billion cost of the build-out, with the rest financed by bonds issued by the SPV and purchased in bulk by investment funds like PIMCO. Meta will lease most of the Beignet datacenter from Blue Owl, who will take the lease payments to pay the coupons to bondholders and dividends to itself and its minority partner who is also the primary tenant.
Why the complicated structure? Accounting tricks. Continuing with Beignet as an example, take a worst-case scenario where the SPV fails. If that happens, the majority owner - Blue Owl - will sell off everything it can to pay back bondholders. This will inevitably result in a gap. If Beignet were a normal enterprise, that results in a "haircut" - the bondholders lose the difference. If it were a normal enterprise, it would also have to pay ruinous interest rates to finance a high-risk and high-complexity scheme. But it isn't a normal enterprise, and it gets to issue investment-grade bonds. Why? Because Meta is backstopping it. If Beignet fails and is liquidated and the bondholders are not made whole, Meta puts up the difference. The complicated structure lets the SPV borrow at blue-chip rates and - most importantly - allows the blue chip with the risk exposure to hold that exposure off its balance sheet to maintain that rating while burning through capital at alarming rates. Meta is ultimately on the hook for the bond issue, but Meta also gets to exclude the massive liability from its balance sheet. If that seems extremely suspicious, it's because it is. It's a vast game of hide-the-risk - but hiding the risk doesn't make it go away, and no amount of wishful thinking or accounting tricks can change that. And it's a very, very big problem. Last year, the hyperscalers issued $121 billion in new debt. That sounds like a lot, but this year, the total issuance is on pace to quadruple that as Morgan-Stanley (via Forbes) estimates $570 billion issuance. And the Big Five hyperscalers are holding, by some estimates, around $1.5 trillion dollars' worth of debt off their balance sheets. And people are finally noticing. From a piece of Bloomberg coverage:"The accounting treatment itself is in fashion. But what if one of these companies was a house of cards and was propping itself up with this accounting treatment?" said Tom Selling, technical accounting consultant. "To me, that's the risk."Indeed, but it ignores the obvious question: why bother with this complex accounting treatment otherwise? The stated argument is along the lines of, "there will be other tenants involved, too, not just us, so it makes sense" but that's a much weaker argument than the obvious one of "to hide risk."
"If we just looked at the financial statements, we would be more or less short sighted: missing liabilities, missing obligations, missing key elements of these structures that really truly represent the economics," Gonzales said.Yes, SPVs aren't illegal. But at this scale and with corporations this hypothetically rich and credit-worthy backstopping them, they are a red flag. And that scale is another part of the reason. Nobody can afford this. It is getting into nation-state levels of capital and debt expenditure and even the mighty hyperscalers can't pay for their bets, especially as the market for AI bonds appears to be softening. Between known on-balance-sheet debt and estimated off-balance-sheet debt, the Big Five hyperscalers have racked up almost $2.5 trillion in debt so far. Alphabet (Google) plays the hide-the-risk game comparatively little and most of its debt is on its balance sheet and because of that, its accounting is easier to understand - and it is also is in negative free cash flow for the first time since going public as its capital expenditures exceed its cashflows. How many of its fellow hyperscalers are in the same situation, with the reality hidden off the balance sheet? The answer to the basic AI question of "can it pay" will have profound consequences not just for the hyperscalers, but for the wider economy.
Investors have to dig through disclosures attached to corporate financial statements to find details on the off-balance sheet structures and how each firm accounts for those arrangements and any related obligations.
The information is there, but finding it requires more work than if Meta, for example, borrowed directly to finance the build out, said Gil Luria, head of technology research for D.A. Davidson & Co.
"Enron's crime wasn't having special purpose vehicles. Enron's crime was hiding them," Luria said.

I spent the past 18 months reallocating assets from equities to bonds ahead of my retirement. I'm roughly 45/55 bonds to equities. Most of my work income is replaced by bond dividends so if there is a significant correction, my income is untouched. But I'm still looking for opportunities to bottom feed.

I believe, although I could be wrong, that xAI primarily runs data centers for other people and uses their silliness to pay the bills with Grok using any free computing. For example, they run a profit because Google cannot keep up with construction equal to their delusions so they pay xAI for compute time.
In many ways, xAI is operating like general store owners during the California gold rush.

Microsoft has spent decades trying to remove the PC and data storage from your home and centralizing it in their systems.
Google has taken it to exorbitant levels. Ever use a Chromebook? Apple is going the same direction.

In part at least, you are correct. Anthropic is a big customer of xAI datacenters (now folded into SpaceX). In a complicated partnership, Microsoft provides Azure computing to Open AI, and so on.
But that is for models running today, not necessarily for the future models where they are building datacenters on spec for the different AI competitors.
There will be a shakeout and the WCC Central story that pixy posted earlier shows that you can take a cheaper model, train it partially on the expensive frontier model output and in essence, gain most of the frontier model's advantage for peanuts.
Like Elon and Grok AI, it may be to the advantage of NOT being Claude or Open AI front runners because the slightly less than absolute bleeding edge frontier models don't consume the cash that Claude or OpenAI are spending that is not sustainable. Now NVIDIA is getting involved as well, basically staking the AI companies if they use NVIDIA hardware.
I don't think we know where this is going to end.

Those expenditures are scary though. The data center thing doesn’t freak me out as it does other people. The nearby shithole town has some areas of blight that can be replaced by data centers if people are willing and they just might give people in town something to do other than eat, sleep and shit (h/t, The Helmsman). Oh, and get high and commit crimes. My worry is that when the bubble bursts, you’ll have some worthless property sitting idle forever until someone comes in to repurpose.

The thing is, the risk from NOT moving your company into AI is even higher.
It's a choice between "may be out of business" and "definitely will be out of business".
First prize is wealth beyond your wildest dreams (even if you are Elon Musk). Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is that your company dies.
If the "OMG data!!! centers!!! bad!!!" contingent manages to derail the buildout the first prize winner is going to be Chy-na.
I'm pretty sure the ChiComs are behind this, just as they (and before them, the Sovs) were behind the propaganda against nuclear power.

To pay off successfully, the frontrunners need to be able to charge premium prices for what underneath the hood looks mostly like a commodity product. If we see signs of customers being locked into one AI model or another that's possible, but at present people are just routing tasks to whatever is cheapest to complete a task.

Grok certainly has areas where it tries to steer the narrative, but far less so than any of the others. I'm willing, for now, to accept that Grok is that way as a function of the training material, rather than a deliberate bias. Not so with the others, especially Claude.

It is easier to recover from overspending on infrastructure than it is a financial meltdown like 2008. We had a tech meltdown after Web 1.0 crashed and failed, we had a meltdown regarding fiber optic mania, and yet each of those failures left a bunch of infrastructure available cheap for the future and better companies to utilize for growth.
Neither shook the US finances like giving a bunch of home loans to people that would not repay them.

This sounds like Enron or FTX debt-structuring schemes.
Arthur Andersen went under with Enron because other firms independently exposed their complicity.
FTX shared the same advantage as Big AI has now: no reliable auditing.
All these modern firms benefit from the new system, since the MBS/CDO collapse a decade later, which is that debt is now valued arbitrarily.
But they still keep going under anyway, because Renfield Accounting can only cover for so much, and then you get a stake through your heart.

Have no dog in the fight but I think Claude was smart in aiming at coding as a specialty niche to differentiate itself from Open AI or Grok even. But, the easy of 'stealing' frontier model's edge apparently, especially by the Chicoms, means that the vast world market envisioned by Open AI and Claude is not going to be theirs. It will go to the cheapest alternative even if the Chicoms own the cheating company. Neither company has the cash flow longterm to keep burning it so as to beat the other to the vaunted IPO.
Google with Gemini, and SpaceX have other income streams that neither Claude or Open AI have. Personally, in the wreckage, I would buy Apple stock above any of them because they stayed out of the AI shitshow and they have the cash to buy the shell of any AI company that crashes out.

Good point. But I think the tech execs involved are believing in the network effect where you have just one dominant company and the rest are rounding errors rather than an oligopoly. Probably driven in part by the example of social media. That model may not apply here at all for AI because good enough might beat the most expensive. Could be the auto mfg should be the AI company model.
I also think some of them think that by hyperscaling, we get to AGI that way rather than simply rebranded machine learning. AGI is indeed a Vernor Vinge singularity event.

I route tasks to whichever model is the best at something. GPT-5.6 writes the cleanest code, Claude is the best at actually running and debugging, and Grok 4.5 can do both but not quite as well. But it's sufficiently cheaper enough that lower-grade tasks get pushed its way. Elon said 4.6 will be out this week, should be interesting.

It has to be a shock to a town council rolling in the revenue when the ribbon is finally cut and that horde of thousands of people buying stuff and paying for tolls and parking and whatnot on their corporate cards suddenly drops to a few dozen employees who keep the lights on and sit in a chair silencing alarms without looking at what they were for (and then get fired for doing that).

DOJ has until 12:59 AM eastern to get a filing in *and approved* to continue the stay on an injunction, or else suppressors, SBRs, and SBSs are effectively no longer governed by the NFA.
The injunction went in a week ago with a 1 week stay to let DOJ appeal it. It isn't blanket nationwide, but applies to all current and future members of several 2A groups and customers of Silencershop, PSA, and a few others.

Increasingly the whole internet datastream is being dehumanized as it ain't humans driving the demand directly anymore but computers talking to other computers using agents aka bots.
Humans are merely becoming just a set of inputs into increasingly sophisticated algorithms that do everything from demand curve based pricing on the fly to self driving cars.

The downside to all of that extra tax $$$$ is they draw large amounts of power and water and in places like the DFW metro plex where they are building these things like crazy there is no extra capacity for any utilities.

Arthur Andersen went under with Enron because other firms independently exposed their complicity.
FTX shared the same advantage as Big AI has now: no reliable auditing.
All these modern firms benefit from the new system, since the MBS/CDO collapse a decade later, which is that debt is now valued arbitrarily.
But they still keep going under anyway, because Renfield Accounting can only cover for so much, and then you get a stake through your heart.

Yes, because those only gave companies a single digit sales increase rather than being able to front a massive IPO with untold billions for the insiders.
My guess is Oracle and the Ellisons are going to be one of the casualties, Microsoft to the extent that they are now actively cannibalizing their own sacrosanct product lines is another, can't tell on Google which probably has its own Android half of cellphones to feed, and then Apple which stayed out of the muck and can afford to buy the survivor(s) of the shakeout probably. SpaceX is difficult to tell as Elon is using one part of the company to build demand as a customer for other parts of the company. Not the same as pureplay AI like Claude or Open AI.
Nvidia though is a company that I would probably short--they bet the farm on AI production leaving AMD in the dust but AMD and Intel might get the last laugh there. Intel pulled out of serious AI after its AI oriented CPUs failed badly.

I think we are all guessing because it depends on contract language between partners and exactly how those would be interpreted should the shakeout occur. The financial crisis ended up with the big banks skating on much of their implied liability and getting bailed out for the rest in 2008-9. I can see the big companies with the clout doing the same here--like Meta. Investors are the disposable ones here, not the companies.

Should.
But it won't. At least, not for unregulated cloud storage. At some point, the datacenters are going to start screening all of our data and deleting anything that the commies don't like, but the first step will be in charging premiums for unscreened cloud storage. And your unscreened storage will be on the shittiest hard drives that risk data loss, not to mention the access times will suffer.
Eventually, the unscreened storage will go away and your "private" data will be screened and cleaned up as they "improve performance".

Eh, run OpenSeek on an old computer and you will get somewhere around 80-90 percent of the performance of frontier models. It is the frontier models that demand those new datacenters as the existing models are superceded by the newest ones. They repeatedly use the training data from the older model to train the new one plus any other data they can scrounge (now getting into old product manuals, old reference books, etc. territory).
Think Johnny Five in Short Circuit with the need for more 'input'.
Kind of like how the TV market settled out--you could pay through the nose for the bleeding edge with all its problems or wait about 2-3 years for those bleeding edge models to be faster, cheaper, etc. on sale at Walmart. Same for the PC market--you pay for bleeding edge. Noticed something with the auto market in a report, customers are now turning away from premium cars as the amenities in the new standard models have made things like heated seats, data displays, safety additives into things rolled into std. models.

True.
This reminds me of railroad expansion 150 years ago.
Next year, hyperscalers are estimated to spend an estimated $1.5 trillion in new capital spending, or at least that's an estimate I saw tossed out yesterday. Debt issuance is so huge it starting to crowd out the other big borrower, America, and preventing interest rates from dropping lower. That means debt issuance is so high, it is causing the United States government budget strain. It's incredible.
A friend of mine sold all his stocks and bought physical gold and silver, he's so shocked by the debt levels. Is that the right path? Or will the stock market and general robustness of the economy bail us all out? Who the hell can say.

Indeed. Point a hot surface towards deep space (away from the sun) and heat will flow away from it. This is the process that makes ice form on puddles under a clear night sky, even though the air temperature does not drop below freezing.

It is a tool that can work, but most politicians see dollar signs for themselves if they just shovel the money to the bailout. But markets panic and you get irrational get rid of it responses during a panic.
Intel was getting beaten down for example for not making ENOUGH of a profit and predictions that it would fail by short sellers rather than the facts in the matter.
And I think naked short types should be drawn and quartered while being burned at the stake. They are parasites. Want to short, get a stake or borrow it from someone to do so putting your own ass at risk. Naked shorts are simply trying to psychologically beat down the price so you can score cheap profits with little outlay and risk.

===================
Is it cooling we are talking about or heat radiation? Obviously in space, radiating heat is no problem. As far as cooling goes, if the satellite is not directly facing the sun it is sitting a few hundred degrees below zero, but much warmer if facing the sun. Right? So cooling might just be a matter of shielding satellites on the day side of orbit, and warming them on the night side. Would that be right?

Sponge I think it's just the opposite, zero cost maintenance. The satellites work until their orbit degrades and they burn up in the atmosphere. New satellites replace them, usually more capable ones. Rinse and repeat.

I'm a rocket scientist, too, at least by training. You can use radiation for cooling, but you have to be careful to point your radiator away from bright objects. It can be done, but it's not a zero-cost thing.
According to the article in last month's Aerospace America, the biggest problem would be orbital deconfliction. I think the biggest problem is that there is no good reason to put data centers in orbit so you have to pay huge costs for no real gain in order to do it, but that's just me.
The huge costs I'm talking about are the launch costs. It takes so much energy to put anything into orbit that an orbital anything is going to be expensive. Yes, SpaceX has done amazing things to reduce the cost of lifting stuff into orbit, but they've basically just reduced it from ludicrous to immense. The hope is that SpaceX can further reduce it to merely extremely large.

Surprisingly the NYC population in 1930 was just under 7.4 million and it's around 8.5 million today. I thought the 2026 number would be much higher. Does that increase of 1.1 million make that much difference in being able to live normally in NYC vs what's going on today with crime, high taxes and all of the other things that progressivism has wrought? I wonder what the demographics were in 1939. Off to do some research.

“Many of the loser children of my wealthy friends who see no way to emulate the success of their parents, have gravitated toward Mamdani-ism and found community and a sense of purpose by rejecting capitalism as a way to cope with their own failure. Please note they have nor however rejected their trust funds or living subsidies while pursuing their ‘passions’ in NGOs, dabbling in the arts or trying to invest their parents money in ‘VC.’

He blamed Lennon for misleading him about the nature of this world, through his music and public pronouncements, and so ruining his life. Also, he was a psycho.
The leaders of his prison group therapy endeavored to get him to understand that he was a useless piece of shit all on his own, not because of Lennon.

The Morning Report — 8/ 12 /26
Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley beat Democratic socialist Francesca Hong in a come-from-behind victory during the Wisconsin gubernatorial primary Tuesday night. Crowley, 40, was ahead of the 37-year-old state representative and member of the Democratic Socialists of America 39.8% to 39.4% when the race was called by the Associated Press at 3:34 a.m. Surveys ahead of the Badger State Democratic contest had consistently showed Hong besting Crowley by double digit percentage points. Crowley had also dropped out of the race weeks before and even endorsed another opponent, before re-entering the contest and receiving the backing of outgoing Gov. Tony Evers.Hong who hates Israel, white people, and not merely Thanksgiving but what it represents, family, America that encompass its history, society, culture and traditions. Then again, in whole or in part this is what the Democrats en masse are all about. In their two century-long desire for absolute power they have embraced and endorsed any and every crackpot and in so doing have placed an absolute stranglehold on several key states and more crucially institutions of our government and private sector that have kept them in power all this time, primarily academia and the media. So the question is, is Hong's defeat merely because the party and electorate see her as politically/tactically toxic during an election or that what she believes does not align with what it and they believe. My fear is that if the latter were the case, how in the world could she and all the others of her ilk have ever gotten as far as they have politically? Well, they couldn't. And yet here we are as a nation and society. Since yesterday was an open primary in Wisconsin I and my fellow Wisconsinites had the opportunity to vote for either party, and since Tom Tiffany was a shoe-in to win in the GOP, I'm wondering how many of my fellow sane republican Wisconsinites voted on the Democrat line for Crowley to pull a sort of Operation Chaos a la Limbaugh? I just realized that maybe this might not have been such a great idea as having Hong as a candidate might make our side complacent and as Dems vote for whoever has the D after their name regardless of who it is could spell disaster come November. Oh well, fellow Dairy Staters and everyone please weigh in.
Host Peter Alexander said, “There’s a conversation happening among Democrats, and I’m sure a lot of people sitting listening to this conversation right now, who have these real concerns about the sort of divide they’re experiencing within the party between the more progressive candidates and the more moderate, more centrist candidates. The fear is that ultimately it may cost the party some seats, some governors’ mansions. You saw that Abdul El-Sayed, someone you supported, obviously won what was a really close race against a more moderate Senate candidate in the state of Michigan. Right now in Wisconsin, Francesca Hong is facing some similar concerns.” He asked, “What do you make of that concern, and how do you satisfy those more centrist Democrats and independent-minded folks, in states like your own right now, who are having that real debate within their own head?” Ellison said, “I think the debate is great. I think it’s an important debate to have. Democratic, ‘big D’ Democrats are being democratic ‘small D,’ meaning that we’re debating ideas.Yes, Keith Ellison is a sick freak but he's also the Attorney General of the state of Minnesota. His views are absolutely in line with Hong and all the rest, and he has been the AG of Mn for many many years and through many election cycles. I suppose one can argue that social media posts can come back to bite candidates in the ass but then again, how is it that my old hometown of NYC can swing from the madness of a David Dinkins to 12-plus years of a golden age under Rudy Giuliani and then embrace DeBolshevik and then DeBolshevik on steroids Mamdani?! I don't get it.
From coast-to-coast, voters on the left are turning to the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) to lead them to the promised land. For them, of course, the promised land is communism. Not surprisingly, the DSA candidates usually run under the Democrat banner. Democrats and communists have always been soul mates. In 1948, Henry A. Wallace, who had been FDR’s vice president from 1941 to 1945, ran for president under the Progressive Party banner. The Progressive Party was hard left and strongly aligned with, and supported by, the Communist Party of America. Wallace received 2.4% of the vote. Unfortunately, today’s communists (costumed in DSA clothing behind the Democrat curtain) are getting ten times that. But don’t call them communists! Ask Democrats or DSA members, and they’ll vehemently deny they’re communists. The DSA will assert, “We’re not communists, we’re docialists. BIG difference!” Really? And Democrats often won’t even agree that they’re socialists, despite having mirror image policies.Speaking of Rush Limbaugh, as the late great Maha Rushie of blessed memory once observed, When the Left promises paradise on earth and free everything, it's impossible to run against Santa Claus and beat him. The irony there of course is the Left's preternatural hatred of everything Christian, but the analogy is nevertheless spot on. But of course, a lot of people are going to have to be liquidated and the past 250 years of our unique "exceptional" history completely erased in order for their fever dreams to be realized
Abolish The Police, Seize The Corporations, Erase The Borders This is the DSA platform Democrats don’t want you to read.While some in the Democrat Party are freaking out over the freaks like Hong there they are running and ins some cases like Mamdani winning. Yes the entirety of the Wisconsin populace cannot be compared to that of NYC as a whole. But there's Keith Ellison, who unlike a John Fetterman or even a Chuck Schumer is eager to embrace the overt Commies. Of course so long as they have a D next to their name, Democrats must vote for that candidate. Speaking of Paradise on Earth — elsewhere in the world, as Iran continues to be a festering boil on the world's backside, let me just state for the record that President Trump and Israel's combined effort so far to prevent these fiends from obtaining nuclear weapons and initiating armageddon as the precursor to permanent global Islamic domination, was absolutely necessary to the safety and security of the world. This item is rather alarming:
Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has called for Islamic nations to set aside their differences and join Islamabad’s defence agreement with Saudi Arabia and Turkey to form a military alliance along the lines of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO). Talking to Geo News, Asif said the Mecca Joint Defence Agreement shouldn’t be an ‘exclusive club’ and urged Islamic nations to put their difference aside and join the pact. . . “I think that, along the lines of NATO, Muslim countries should put their own differences aside–the transactional issues or bilateral disputes they have with one another — and stand together on this one platform,” he added. . . . . . Pakistan is the world’s primary enforcer of Islamic blasphemy laws. It’s a state sponsor of terrorism, holds an estimated 170 nuclear warheads, and is steadily modernizing its arsenal. Its longest-range operational missile is the Shaheen 3, which can hit targets up to 1,709 miles. Saudi Arabia is the location of Mecca and Medina, Islam’s holiest cities. Turkey is “the new Iran,” a Muslim Brotherhood-supporting nation with revanchist aims. Recently, Greek MEP Afroditi Latinopoulou rightly warned that “pretending Turkey is still a reliable ally is not a strategy. It is dangerous self-delusion.”But let's not lose our heads over Islam! Of course who the new American red guards of the DSA can't shoot into a mass grave will be taken care of by the graduates of our Madrassas...
Her nearly 300-page study examines an English-language Islamic Studies curriculum spanning Grades 1 through 12, published by Darussalam and supplemented by other widely circulated educational texts. Rather than approaching Islamic education through sociological generalizations or newspaper accounts of radicalization, she examines what children themselves encounter: textbooks, exercises, religious stories, prescribed behavior, Quranic passages, accounts of Mohammed and his companions, and the material that is emphasized, softened, postponed, or omitted.

Results remain unofficial until official certification in the coming weeks, which is standard. The margin was under 1%, so a recount request was possible (at the campaign’s expense above a certain threshold), but reports indicate Hong conceded, which effectively closed off that path.

• Do they count on the fact that police are what protects tyrants and criminals from an armed public who has lost all faith in the court systems?
• Most corporations are largely held by a relatively small handful of funds: Fidelity, State Street, Black*, etc. Much of this is pension funds, so there is already a form of public ownership. What do they hope to accomplish by seizing something they know nothing about?
• Borders: clearly population replacement. Smart, entrepreneurial, moral, creatives are anathema to a police state.

Proponents act like this is some new idea, and have no idea that the “positive bill of rights” was a big feature of the far left in the 30’s and 40’s. Easy to make if sound so good - yet the Soviet Union had a “positive bill of rights” in its constitution.
Here’s the trick - if you’ve mandate that Government provide certain things such as food, housing, and medical care, then you also must grant that government unlimited power to fulfill those demands, whatever it requires.
Of course, a totalitarian system is always the true goal.

Nobody is "promised" any path to economic success. It isn't something you buy and then possess, like any other tangible household item. So many of you bought stupid, useless degrees without ever taking a moment's thought as to whether Lesbian Studies were going to land you a good, high paying job. Even in legit fields, you have no right to economic success. It's an earned commodity that isn't commensurate with how highly educated you think you are or what degrees you hold in your hand.

But I think it’s even more likely that she *never* actually led, and that it’s another sign that the entire practice of polling is now irretrievably broken, and produces nothing but nonsense results that mirror the biases of the pollster.
If this is so, then double digit misses by the polls are going to become the norm.

This is what happens when there is zero sum ideology—that nothing can be created, only cannibalized or destroyed.
But since these clowns believe that there is numerical cap on the number of Constitutional Amendments, why not get the easy disposable ones like the 18th and 21st? Go with the 18th and put something really retarded and evil in there, then we can point to Amendment 21 § 1 and tell them to fuck right off.

I have wondered this several times in my life. I regularly see whole systems (think schools and homeless) that are completely taken over by quote unquote concerned outsiders and then see the complete collapse of the system.
Clownworld Pivot assumes that once the collapse happens, then the White Knight (pun intended) will ride in to save said system.

I'm rooting for chaos, so a thin margin between these schmucks is ideal in my view. Keep the party schizophrenic. Keep all of them at each other's throats. A clean victory demoralizes the loser, but a by-a-nose finish sends everyone to the mattresses where we can kick back and root for casualties.

Thanks for that, had forgotten it. Very good summary. People love the idea that some future event can be mathematically predicted, even when that idea is garbage.
Texas polling is particularly awful; Texas has 254 counties, but only 5 or 6 truly high population counties. (The big cities, natch). It’s difficult to contact rural and smaller town voters, so almost every poll done will end up being just a poll of a few hundred voters in those places.
Yet it’s known by all that the other 249 counties vote in a completely contrary way to the votes from the big cities. This would be extremely expensive to get around, though, so no public polls even try.
I think of this every time I see another stupid Fox poll claiming Talarico is leading Paxton.

If cops are doing it, you know other agencies are doing it. It's a good way to keep track of those the Gov't wants to keep track of (along with using cell phone data).

In 1 Kings 21, Naboth refuses to sell his ancestral vineyard to King Ahab. Ahab becomes angry and despondent. Jezebel then arranges false witnesses who accuse Naboth of cursing God and the king. Naboth is executed, and Ahab takes the vineyard

One (somewhat) good thing about inflating our way out of (or deeper into?) massive growing debt, is at least everyone (sorta) has to pay, including the drug dealers and other scofflaws. And it helps keep the "markets" rising, which keeps the ultra rich (and other smaller "investors") ahead of inflation.
But if the bubble could ever pop ... well, we just plan for that to never happen, easy peasy.

The Cantillon Effect is the economic observation that new money does not enter an economy evenly. Named after 18th-century economist Richard Cantillon, it shows that people who receive newly printed money first benefit the most, while those who receive it last suffer from rising prices before seeing any income
IOW: Those at the top of government largess make bank in that they take the stolen funds and "invest" them, they then get to ride the equity's "value" increase with inflated dollars from those furthest away from the pipeline have.

IOW: Those at the top of government largess make bank in that they take the stolen funds and "invest" them, they then get to ride the equity's "value" increase with inflated dollars from those furthest away from the pipeline have.
Yep. The connected will do the best because they get those new Bidenbux before the inflationary effect hits prices in general.
Interestingly this also as an impact based on what you have your savings in for normal people. Large cap corporate stock and housing tend to increase to reflect inflation fairly quickly (and in fact a lot of those big stock/housing gains in the Biden years are just baking inflation into the price). But people that have savings accounts or cash will get his harder.

Muslim countries can't form a stable worldwide military alliance. They will always fall out over their differences. Then there is the reality that they tend to lose wars, for reasons fundamental to their societies. Islam in the modern world does not win conventional wars, it spreads into societies like toxic mold. Treachery and bullying at the local level, and above all, parasitic stealing from the infidels.

“What if we tweaked the Constitution, amended the amendment, and instead of the right to bear arms, we change it to the right to have health care?”
Sure, pal. Let's tweak the Constitution. Two-thirds vote in the House and Senate and ratification by 3/4 of the states.
Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh
Proponents act like this is some new idea, and have no idea that the “positive bill of rights” was a big feature of the far left in the 30’s and 40’s. Easy to make if sound so good - yet the Soviet Union had a “positive bill of rights” in its constitution.
Here’s the trick - if you’ve mandate that Government provide certain things such as food, housing, and medical care, then you also must grant that government unlimited power to fulfill those demands, whatever it requires.
Of course, a totalitarian system is always the true goal.
Posted by: Tom Servo at August 12, 2026 07:45 AM

A totalitarian system is necessary if you make food, health care, and so on, rights. Minimum and maximum rights benefits will need to be established. Good luck writing those into an amendment. Or leaving the definitions to Congress and Presidents. What could go wrong?

One of the side effects of combining religious and political power is that it doesn't give you a respected third party to resolve in-group differences.
Since every emir can claim to be caliph as well and often do this means they are all in competition with each other.
And you can see this play out in the middle ages/renaissance. The papacy wasn't by any means perfect but it did at times get the secular rulers to act together for the good of Christianity.

Pollsters are wildly misjudging - probably somewhat deliberately - both the strength of democrats and the weakness of the republicans. Most of their polling have overstated democrat strength and understated MAGA strength. If a GOP in the general is polling 2 to 3 points ahead its more likely double or more in reality. I wonder how long they will keep the charade up.

That would be the self-absorbed, mouthy, unemployed, entitled millennials and Zs. I haven't seen the cross-tabs, and I probably won't, because polling is garbage and a waste of effort, energy, and tiem. But I suspect all of these double digit misses are heavily weighted with the people described above.

When I see the name Crowley, my first thought is Alistair Crowley, the prominent satanist.
So a last minute ballot dump confirmed a win for Crowley over Hong. Maybe she was actually winning, if not for fraud. The old time Democrat establishment used its cheat machinery against her. Hopefully the Republican effort to promote Hong cost the Democrats extra money to fight it.
Are the Democrats going to be able to cheat to victory in the general?

It looks like she and her highly-paid consultant team believe there is a wide, and mostly wide-open, lane in the 2028 Democrat field just a bit to the right of the DSA lane. Her first moves will be to eliminate the competitors for that lane. Kamala, Newsom, and the other fake moderates. She wants to be the winning fake semi-moderate. Plus look how young she is! Not a political fossil!

🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: There was a threat against President Trump's LIFE while he was in Turkey for NATO, and it involved a shoulder-to-air missile possibly targeting Air Force One
"Ultimately, the president was reportedly moved from Air Force One to another plane using a catering truck."
TRUMP: "I go by Secret Service and the military. They wanted me to go in a different flight." 💯
Iran apparently knew where 47 was staying in Turkey as wel"

Look for sharia to be imposed in NYC in the next ten years. You won't have to worry about cleaning up after your dog because you won't be able to have a dog. McSorley's Ale House will be closed along with all other bars and liquor store. Brace yourselves.

It's not that Sanders didn't care about Francesca winning, but he didn't endorsed her & a narrow loss is fine. Sanders is trying to build an army inside Congress.
For the 20th midterm election cycle, Senator Bernie Sanders has endorsed over 90 progressive candidates nationwide, targeting key U.S. Senate, House, gubernatorial, and state legislative races as part of an effort to counter both the traditional party establishment and conservative opponents. (See BernieSanders dot com/endorse.)
A nightmarish list.
Two of his 'soldiers' recent wins: Michigan, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate (Mid-term primary will be against 'R' Mike Rogers) and Minnesota, Peggy Flanagan, U.S. Senate. (Mid-term primary will be against 'R' Michele Tafoya.)
Platner for the U.S. Senate was a Sander's problem and Sanders also had endorsed Troy Jackson for Governor of Maine. Jackson didn't win the nomination and now he's the Democratic nominee in the U.S. Senate race for longtime Republican Sen. Susan Collins' seat.
Big money is needed. And Sanders, AOC & Abdul El-Sayed to appear more moderate for just 84 days, the U.S. midterm elections.

They're really in a Garbage In, Garbage Out phase in terms of filling out their roster right now. And since they're too damn stupid and crazy to learn anything remotely like a lesson, they'll just keep doing it until they collapse into irrelevance.

I love many of ABBA's songs, with "Fernando" being a favorite because it's so different from their usual. But that lady's name -- completely unlike her -- is just *ugly* to look at.

The house I wanted to video tour this week is now under contract. Two more possibilities popped up, but one seems huge and probably hard to heat and cool. The other is close to perfect -- but is located within a few blocks of two Section 8 housing developments. Still I'll have a look at it, I guess.

So this will be the big story today. Given that she supposedly led by double digits, there will be many claims that the Dem party cheated to deny her the nomination. Who knows, maybe.
But I think it’s even more likely that she *never* actually led, and that it’s another sign that the entire practice of polling is now irretrievably broken, and produces nothing but nonsense results that mirror the biases of the pollster.
If this is so, then double digit misses by the polls are going to become the norm.

Interesting night at the polls. Hong losing might make it tougher for the Republican Tiffany to win the governorship. The DSA types might walk away.
Tafoya v Flanagan in Minn will be an interesting brace. Flanagan is a lunatic who might turn off some Dems

Thanks for that, had forgotten it. Very good summary. People love the idea that some future event can be mathematically predicted, even when that idea is garbage.
Texas polling is particularly awful; Texas has 254 counties, but only 5 or 6 truly high population counties. (The big cities, natch). It’s difficult to contact rural and smaller town voters, so almost every poll down will end up being just a poll of a few hundred voters in those places.
Yet it’s known by all that the other 249 counties vote in a completely contrary way to the votes from the big cities. This would be extremely expensive to get around, though, so no public polls even try.
I think of this every time I see another stupid Fox poll claiming Talarico is leading Paxton.

Tuesday Overnight Open Thread - August 11, 2026 [Doof]
From Shelby
Howdy Hordelings! The Tuesday ONT has arrived. Content available for those who care. Open thread, as always. What's on YOUR mind tonight?
Another day, another batch of Flock abuses
Wisconsin police pull over wrong vehicle, draw guns on woman after Flock cameras mistakenly identified her car in a homicide case. Twice.
(H/T to CBD for this one)
It happened at around 4:45 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 6. Video from I-94 in Waukesha County shows multiple officers with guns drawn - and a passenger sticking their hands out the window. Police pulled the car over after a Flock camera flagged it for a Milwaukee homicide. But when Brookfield Police called the Milwaukee Police Department, MPD said they no longer needed the car or the people inside, so officers let them go. FOX6 News reached out to MPD to learn why that car was still active in the Flock system. The department said it was not a Flock issue, but a personnel issue - staff failed to remove a wanted vehicle alert from the system.
*** Another Flock mistake that prompts officers to go in with guns drawn.
If either of them had resisted in any way or showed they were upset by the false accusations being made by the cops they may have ended up dead. We've seen that happen before. Also, the cops say "your car flagged the system" as if it were their fault. It was the system that flagged the car incorrectly, not the other way around. There should be some type of monetary compensation for being stopped falsley with guns drawn.
Flock is going to get an innocent person killed soon.

----- Not real = not spectacular Female Cyclists Accused of Using Bra Paddding to Increase Bust Size and Improve Aerodynamics
The world of women’s cycling is currently embroiled in a bizarre scandal involving the alleged use of bra padding to increase the bust area of female competitors and modify airflow around the body. Known as “chest fairing,” the controversial practice can allegedly decrease drag and give competitors an unfair advantage during races. According to experts, a smaller bust can favor the formation of a kind of “air pocket” at the level of the cyclist’s abdomen, which marginally increases the drag coefficient. For example, Bert Blocken, professor of aerodynamics at Heriot-Watt University (Scotland), told the British newspaper The Telegraph that chest fairing could provide a reduction of up to 3.6% in drag. *** Originally reported last month by Dutch newspaper “WielerFlits,” the chest fairing trend caused quite a scandal on the women’s cycling circuit, and on August 4th, the cyclists taking part in this year’s Tour de France underwent an additional check of their clothing. It’s unclear if the checks uncovered the use of breast padding, but it’s clear that organizers aim to discourage the practice.
The waiting list for that job must be kinda long
----- Bad news for those of you who travel with a humanoid United & Delta Become Latest Airlines To Ban Humanoid Robots From All Flights
United Airlines and Delta Air Lines have joined a growing list of carriers prohibiting passengers from transporting humanoid robots on their aircraft, extending restrictions to both cabin baggage and checked luggage. The policies come as airlines respond to the emergence of increasingly lifelike robots that present operational, safety, and handling challenges not addressed by traditional baggage rules. The updated restrictions distinguish humanoid robots from conventional consumer electronics and small robotic devices. While toy robots and other electronic devices that meet existing battery requirements generally remain permitted, human-like robots are specifically prohibited regardless of their intended use. The move follows similar action by Southwest Airlines earlier this year after a highly publicized incident involving a humanoid robot traveling on a commercial flight.

I'm also uneasy about Graham's sister being the GOP nominee in SC.
I feel like GOP voters there are being asked to buy a cat in a sack. She has no record, and no-one really what she'll do.
She still has to win the runoff against a very conservative incumbent GOP Congressman, though.

Driving through a largely unpopulated area of a mid-southern state late one evening, I had my cruise set to 5 over the speed limit and chillin'. After a while, a state trooper pulls up behind me. He just paces me. There's hardly any other cars on this dark desert highway and I just leave my cruise at 5 over.
After a while the lights come on and I pull over.
He comes up to the car and is very nice and polite and asks me some questions. We discuss that it's a rental car and I hand him the paperwork; he checks the VIN. He goes back to his car and sits there a while, waiting on information to come back. Eventually he comes back up and informs me the license on my car is not correct, and that's why he pulled me over - it should be on a different car.
Turns out the license belongs on an identical model car of a different color. He lets me know he'll call it in so that hopefully I don't get pulled over again. Neither he nor I are happy with the rental car company. The rental company didn't seem particularly perturbed when I told them upon turning in the car.

My buddy brought his 82-year-old grandpa to his bachelor party because the old man was feeling lonely. We all thought we'd have to babysit him.
By 2am, we were at a dive bar. Grandpa won $400 playing pool with some local sharks, convinced the bartender to give us a veteran discount on the entire tab, and was teaching the groom how to properly negotiate a mortgage... all while doing vodka shots.
BTW, he was the only one who didn't have a hangover the next morning.

Posted by: OrangeEnt at August 11, 2026 10:37 PM (1Ff7Z)
The Iowa 80 Truckstop and Trucking Museum is in Walcott, roughly 160 miles east of the proposed Buc-ees location.
The Iowa 80 Truckstop and Trucking Museum gets quite a bit of car business, they have a bunch of car gas pumps in front, the truck pumps are in the back. Inside, they have clean restrooms and lots of junk food. I think they have a Wendys inside and some other food offerings.
I always stop there when I'm eastbound, as I can fill up and then make it to Indiana and not have to buy gas in Illinois. I hate that state and don't want to give them any money or do anything there except take a piss.
They're probably far enough apart to not have a big impact either way.

BREAKING: A consortium of Private Equity firms are putting together a deal to lend Nvidia $500B
Apollo, Blackstone, Blackrock, Brookfield, Goldman and KKR are involved, in what is arguably is the largest financing deal ever on Wall Street.

I saw that on CNBC earlier. I think Nvidia gets the money to pay for AI data center hardware, and Nvidia's AI data center customers are on the hook for repaying it from their vast AI revenue, which will be coming any day now.

Last quarter, Nvidia had $82B in revenue, and spent $20B on dividends and share buybacks.

I remember in college when they came out with coupons where you could get 5 beef and cheddars or 5 roast beef for 5 dollars. Then it went to 4, then 3 and now I do not think they even do deals and kids today are like 'Coupons?'

He's a GOP Congressman, and a down-the-line, Trump endorsed conservative-- with a long political history.
The WORST thing Wiki could point out about him is that he has supported some restrictions on abortion in the past. You KNOW if had any scandals or other controversies whatsoever, Wiki would have them front and center.
The DEM Gov is retiring in WI this year, so this is an open seat.

In Wisconsin, barring heroic last minute ballot stuffing, it looks like Francesca "Bug-eyes"' Hong is defeated. The Republican effort to make her the D candidate has not succeeded. All of the disappointed Hong voters will of course vote for the actual D candidate in the November election, and not sit it out due to disappointment and anger.

Yaaay. ChatGPT finished what I was working on. I'm going to get Ralphy, sleeping on the floor on a blanket and quilt, upstairs. Same with Snowflake, curled up on my chair beside me. Cute.
Man, if Hong loses, I kind of feel bad for ace... So much material.

My wife and I stayed with a small group out at a lodge at Little Pecan Island, South Louisiana. Now “islands’ down there are just high points in the middle of a swamp, but the wildlife was fascinating. We went out in a canoe and coasted up next to an alligator as long as the canoe was! They were all over. Anyway there were about 15 of us there, and there was a cook/caretaker, and when i asked about supper, he said “oh well just see what we catch.”
I thought that was a pretty last minute way to plan dinner for a group of people, but he invited me with him to a little pier on some open water behind the he lodge, and he stood in it and started casting a net.
Within about 30 minutes he had two 5 gallon buckets filled with crab, shrimp, and half a dozen kinds of fish. It was astounding! Made me understand why people lived in the swamps - most of it is terrible, but you never go hungry.

It is claimed it will pare the childhood vaxx schedule down to 11 essential shots, instead of the 97 today.
I expect that the blue state Governors are going to claim that Trump is unscientific and wants to kill children, and that may be why Fauci's texts on the 83% miscarriage rates on compelled Covid Vaxx were released today.
It is hard to say both that all vaxxes are good and required, and fight off claims that the compelled vaxx were essentially first trimester abortifacients at the same time.

Crowley's tiny lead has slipped a bit. There's still 65000 or so votes out.
Turning to MI, the GOP nominee Rogers (R) was in Congress for 20 years. He's a former FBI agent. He's been endorsed by Trump, but occasionally goes rogue. I like his chances against el-Hamas. Call me crazy. The MI seat was previously held by a DEM so if Rogers were to win, it would be a GOP pickup-- which would make up for the almost ceRtain DEM pickup in NC.

When I worked at the Navy club, we didn't accept credit cards. One guy (civvy, but "authorized" there) plopped his card down to buy a round & I had to tell him "sorry, but no..."
I had a good memory for numbers back then, and got a good look at his card. Loved to play jokes, too.
Couple days later, I told him about all the stuff I'd ordered on his account. He called BS. I rattled off his CC#. He pulled the card out of his wallet and turned very pale....

I looked it up. It isn't automatic, but the loser can request a recount if they were within 1% of the winner's total, and it will even be taxpayer-funded if they were within 0.25%. (0.25-1% margin, they're paying for it themselves, to be refunded if they win.)

Thank you Grumpy.
We keep our yard neat but the asshole thinks everyone should have a yard that looks like his.
We are in a severe drought here, no outdoor water usage. I am a night owl and sit on the patio at night. The neighbor sneaks out in the middle of the night to run his sprinklers.
Some people think they are special.

We live in a small town and we wish we had bought acreage. We have a couple of asshole neighbors.

Nope. Not a peep. No restriction so far this summer. (Odd!)
Anyway, when we're "restricted" the irrigation utility checks meters and cruises the area frequently. If people are watering during *disallowed* hours, or exceed certain threshold:
1st offense: warning
2nd offense: water shut-off. (irrigation, not "domestic")
Tampering with valve: Fine and prosecution.
They don't F around.

JQ,
It's a small town here and we think a lot of people here are connected with the powers that be.
Five houses on our street and three are watering their grass. What is funny now their grass is turning yellow. We have such a hot summer this year that no matter how much you water the grass it is going to die, lol.

Once it's HOT, I can relax and just mow the weeds and little patches of fescue (?) every-other week or so...
There's chicory, wild lettuce, cheese weed, dandelion and burr-clover to keep it looking *green* from a distance.

Plus, an added benefit of dormancy is you don’t have to mow when it’s 103°. Can’t turn turfgrass “on” and “off” like that, it will go into dormancy just fine, and come out of it just fine, but strangely enough half-assed watering, e.g. some fuckhead standing with a hose in his yard giving it a little sip will likely kill it altogether.
This is how weeds take over a lawn. Classic.
Posted by: Common Tater at August 12, 2026 02:58 AM (kS1bF)
Our lawn is dead this year except for some weird shit that is growing. We have Aspen trees and have been told that the stuff growing is from the aspens. Who knows.

One night here my husband was out of town.
In the middle of the night some asshole was banging onthe door yelling let me in. He ran from the front door to the back door trying to get in the house.
I called 911 and they were here in no time. They caught the guy in the driveway and had their guns pulled and screaming at the guy to get on the ground, get on the ground.
He was drunk and was at the wrong house.
I was so thankful they responded so quick.
There are many good police out there.

Probably not.
You don't have to think cops are evil (at least not more evil than the average man with man's fallen nature) to recognize what a threat they can be.
I try to arrange my life to have as few interactions as possible with people who can shoot me for disobedience.

I don't think it's emotional; I think it's the {click}{whrrrr} of a triggered response. With their full-time job being to deal with the antagonistic, it becomes first habit and then character to treat everyone like an antagonist.
Action, once chosen, when
Repeated, swiftly becomes automatic
Habit; which over time settles into
Character, such that when added to
Circumstance, becomes no less than
Destiny.
If you're lucky, they're just at the Habit level, where conscious attention is enough to override it. If it's a matter of Character, then they've become antagonists themselves. Big-city cops, such as Chicago and Los Angeles, have a reputation for just being the biggest and best-organized gang; "Badge Gang Goombas," one blogger called them.

So... kind of like Babymetal if the girls in Babymetal were unattractive, didn't do a choreo routine to metal, and the lead singer were painful to listen to.

You want to to use a portion of your video time to sell merch, beg for donations, or promote a sponsor, fine, do that.

I don't like a lot of the compositions. Yes, they are musically complex, and I can appreciate that. But a lot of Rush music is awkward ear worms (lookin' at you, Free Will, Tom Sawyer, and others). They are not melodic nor pleasant to have in my head.

You will listen to them at that point, and then say “This is awesome! When are they going on tour?” I’ll be nearby to tell you the truth: no more. They came, they dropped a ton of genius music, and left, and now are off the mortal coil. All that we have left are the recordings and the memories of those who appreciated them while they were here.

"Dance, Dance, Dance" marked Carl's first recognized writing contribution to a Beach Boys single, his contribution being the song's primary guitar riff and solo.
"Dance, Dance, Dance" was composed by Brian and Carl Wilson, while the lyrics were written by Brian and Mike Love. Although many pop songs raise their key at the start of a final chorus, "Dance, Dance, Dance" subverts this convention by modulating in the middle of the verse.
As performed by The Fendertones, a quality father & son Beach Boys tribute band.

Dental adhesive is pretty amazing stuff. According to my dentist, it actually forms a chemical bond with your tooth enamel. The downside is if a filling becomes cracked, that will take away some of the tooth enamel with it.

It doesn't take long for cats to figure out the litter box.
Chloe found a suitable litter box within minutes of arriving at my home.
Of course, she'd been holding it in for seven hours in my car until that point, so that may have had something to do with it.

But as a general rule, women have a pretty juvenile taste in music. My wife is an exception, she has good taste. Most of the women I've ever known are stuck with a 14yo's musical palate. They want something with a beat you can dance to, and pop lyrics that aren't too challenging.
Where a man might want a nice musical bourbon, they want some 99 bananas.
Sorry, not sorry. It is what it is.

This race, minus Darline, is pure regional politics. Ralph Norman is taking the upstate and Fry is taking his district, with Darline roughly second.
Sanford is the spoiler in the Low Country, with that spoilage bleeding up into the Midlands a bit. Norman and Fry are sort of tied below Darline and Sanford.
So, the 2nd place winner will be the Upstate vs the Pee Dee balance of votes for their guy.
If Sanford wasn't in, the Low Country and Midlands could've still split the vote between Norman and Fry, but they could've swung if they wanted to.

Depends on what you call mature, I cannot stand opera singing for example--I can appreciate the raw talent needed to sing like that at volume but I don't care to listen to it. Not too fond of cRAP either but I can see why others like it. Techno bores me.
Other than that, I can listen to Sousa marches, classical in whatever format, jazz although some of the bebop is not my favorite, rock, pop, country, even folk music. So mature is simply a term in the case of music is what I like is mature and what I don't like is immature.
FWIW, classical piano trained as a yute for years--hands too small to be a great pianist though. So I played boogie woogie when teacher was outside the room.

Saw them at their popular peak at a couple of shows. Great shows--one of them used the soon to be banned festival seating aka sort it on the floor as there were no seats (Nashville in 82-3 I think).
Back in those 70's to 80's days, tickets were affordable for yutes, lots of bands touring, and you did not have to be a billionaire to get good seats--just queue up. Ticketmaster and the assorted scum with their own computerized scalping ruined concert music. The money was there so Ticketmaster and bands still relevant enough to draw people set up perfect price discrimination using the scalper's model.
That outpriced it for the fans while catering to the social and money snobs there to be seen with the best seats.

The controversial New York congresswoman broke up with Riley Roberts and called off their engagement almost two years ago.
Ocasio-Cortez and Roberts met when they were both undergraduates at Boston University.
The two were last pictured together at the 2021 Met Gala, and Ocasio-Cortez announced their engagement the following year.
But about 18 months ago, the engagement was suddenly called off, according to Leigh Ann Caldwell, the chief Washington correspondent for Puck News.
It is unclear what may have led up to the split, but insiders have said Ocasio-Cortez stopped wearing her engagement ring in the months before they decided not to get married.
The news comes as Ocasio-Cortez announced that she is in the process of freezing her eggs and documenting the process.

You might like Fairport Convention (had Sandy Denny in it and Richard Thompson among others)--look up her version of Where Does the Time Go (she is also on a couple of Led Zep songs). Richard and Linda Thompson were married for a time and put out some stellar music in the 70's to the early 80's. And Richard is still trucking along even now.
And Richard has a puckish sense of humor
Here he is presenting live, one of the songs he covers in 800 years of Music tour (started as a pure folkie and then became something).

I had a dear grandmother, long since passed away, who was a very quiet homemaker, stereotypical 40's and 50's housewife who took care of the family. Never learned to read music.
And yet if Grandpa could talk her into it, she could sit down and play ragtime on the piano, all off the top of her head, no sheet music, that would make any bar crowd stand up and cheer! She never explained, she'd just say "well it's in my head."

Piano in the home used to be the live entertainment for a lot of people. I could read music and still can despite years since doing it but I am in awe of those that can do what your grandmother did. I had to work up for the yearly show that my piano teacher put us through. I had strong hands so she put me playing modern composers with crashing chords--Bartok, Persichetti, etc. rather than something like DeBussy, Bach, or Mozart. Did decent on waltz accompaniments too.
Came across the old recital programs cleaning up as well. About the digitize the lot but may make a memory box out of the ticket stubs.

Heh. Richard Thompson got a call from Playboy about what he could contribute to a project of the top popular music from the 1000's onwards. He started to do some research as he was already well acquainted with a lot of really old English and Scottish folksongs from playing them for years. Never heard another word from Playboy but decided to cut an album with some of his chums and then tour. You can listen to the whole album on Youtube (about 26 songs).
Live concert of him with band playing the songs on the album is here. About 1 hour 47 minutes on youtube.

Seminar in musicology and Thompson is noted for his wry commentary during the concert on the songs.

Touring is a hard life and back then, Fairport was just scrimping along and fighting for fans in an extremely crowded British music scene. Thompson was one of the few that spent all his time doing music and avoided the excessive drinking and drugs that came around playing the pub circuit at 1-3 in the morning.
In an interview, he noted at the time (late sixties) that he saw all the names in rock etc. pass through the audience for the band as they were just winding down from doing their own shows and did not want to go home.

IRRC, Jimi Hendrix was at one, Who, Rolling Stones, Clapton, Faces, and a bunch of others.
Probably a remnant of that time is one of the 1000 years of songs that Thompson covers is one by Pete Townshend and the Who--A Legal Matter.
Small country, dance and music hall tradition so plenty of venues, and based in London, you could do cheap tours and still return to home base in a reasonable tour. US was and still is a LOT harder to tour than UK was.

That suggests either the establishment cheating and *failing* for their own candidate (highly unlikely) or the polls being totally fake, and the cheating occurring for the bigger leftard, making it naturally close and no one questions it because they lead so big in the fake polling.

--Standout songs from these albums are Wall of Death (carnival ride), I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight (humorous), and Calvary Cross, (long tour de force featuring guitars and a fearsome vocal by Thompson).
There were at least two earlier albums that are more experimental as Richard became involved in Sufism and mysticism and that was in part why Linda and him broke up eventually.

There was an old farmer where I lived who liked to party, and by party I mean having 30 or 40 people in his yard drinking. You could drive by there and if you heard music and saw a crowd, you could just stop in. ID? What ID?
Needless to say, he had a lot of empty beer cans from this.
He was dumping them in a gully that'd formed in a 40 acre field some distance from the house, presumably in an attempt to check erosion.
Finding that was like finding a friggin' goldmine for a bunch of teens.
I wonder if he ever noticed that the gully somehow never seemed to fill up.
Not that he would likely have given much of a shit if he did. He was one of the most laid-back old timers I've ever met.

Soon-to-Be Guest on Tuq'r Qarlson, Abdulrahman El-Sayed, Hates Fireworks, Thinks Football is Racist Toxic Masculinity, and Generally Hates All Things About the Country His Parents Chose to Bear Their Anchor-Baby In
Oh -- and he's deleted all of these old blog posts and tweets, though some people were smart enough to download them before he hit the delete button.
'Fireworks suck': Removed El-Sayed videos urged getting rid of the 4th of July tradition, raised replacing 2nd Amendment
Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed once asked his YouTube viewers whether Americans could "PLEASE" find another way to celebrate the Fourth of July, in a video promising four reasons "why fireworks suck." The since-removed video from July 2024 included a chapter titled "Fireworks just aren't worth it: hear us out" and cited Detroit's post-fireworks air quality, the chemicals used in fireworks, their potential to trigger PTSD in veterans, and the risks they pose to children and pets. The video is one of several examples of El-Sayed removing past online content as he seeks elected office. As CNN's KFile previously reported, he also deleted social media posts supporting the "defund the police" movement. In other since-removed clips, El-Sayed argued that the southern border was not among Americans' five biggest concerns and lambasted Republicans for focusing on it. In another he floated replacing the Second Amendment's right to bear arms with a constitutional right to health care. Not all of El-Sayed's commentary has In one episode that remains online, he questioned whether football could be "ethical" or "safe" and linked the sport's "ethos" to narratives used to justify slavery and westward expansion. ... The YouTube videos, at least 100 of which appear to have been made private, are another example of how El-Sayed's years as a prolific podcaster, commentator and social-media user have left behind an extensive record -- some of it subsequently deleted -- that Republicans could use to portray him as both ideologically left-wing and culturally out of step with swing-state voters. ... Many of the removed videos on YouTube, where El-Sayed at the time had more than 17,000 subscribers, are not publicly available anymore, but CNN reviewed transcripts archived before the videos were made private. El-Sayed's fireworks video was briefly interrupted by a message noting that it was sponsored in part by the Marguerite Casey Foundation. In reading ads for the foundation on his "America Dissected" podcast, he highlighted what he called its "cutting-edge areas of scholarship," including "feminist prison abolition." Prison abolition is a movement that seeks to reduce and ultimately replace prisons, jails, and other punitive systems with approaches intended to address the social conditions linked to harm, including investments in housing, healthcare, education, community-based safety, and restorative or transformative justice. Feminist prison abolitionists argue that incarceration and policing can fail to prevent gender-based violence and may disproportionately harm women and marginalized communities.

@TheKevinDalton Heartbreaking video 68-year-old Todd Stewart screams for help as he is stabbed to death in front of his own home by a career criminal RELEASED ON BAIL 24 HOURS EARLIER. 36 year old Marcos Iriarte-Valdez has been arrested for rape, hit and run, burglary, violating a restraining order and most anything else you can think of. In April he was charged with two counts of felony first-degree burglary after multiple home invasion robberies. He pleaded not guilty and was released on bail with an ankle monitor. Tuesday he gets arrested for violating the terms of his release. They take the ankle monitor off him while he's in custody. The very next day a judge orders him released once more on his own recognizance and refers him right back to monitoring. They don't even put a new monitor on him until Friday morning...after the murder. There is no justice for victims in Gavin Newsom's lawless California.
Defund the police.
Portland Police arrested an occupant of the infamous "Red House" last week following a home raid over reports that William Kinney III allegedly threatened to kill employees and contractors working on a project next door. Kinney, a 41-year-old convicted felon with an extensive criminal history, was booked into jail August 4 on charges including possession of a short-barreled rifle, five counts of felon in possession of a firearm, and three counts of being a felon in possession of body armor, records show. The Red House was at the center of a violent Antifa-Black Lives Matter autonomous zone in 2020, where far-left demonstrators erected borders and barricades to prevent the eviction of the Kinneys, a black Indigenous family who had been squatting at the home. During the home raid, authorities recovered a cache of weapons, including a KelTec 9mm rifle in the living room, and three rifles and a shotgun in the bedroom, according to a probable cause affidavit obtained by The Oregonian. Additionally, police seized a stockpile of ammunition and three sets of body armor. Kinney is forbidden from possessing firearms and body armor as a convicted felon. Records show Kinney was released from the Multnomah County Jail after posting a low $25,000 bail. He reportedly harassed and threatened to shoot contractors working on the nonprofit Self Enhancement Inc.'s property next to the home, which sparked the raid. Kinney reportedly made threats for several consecutive months and threw stones at contractors in July before threatening a drive-by shooting, per the affidavit.Defund the police.
Another Trans Cult? 7-Year-Old Victim Was Groomed to Be Trans Before He Was Found Tortured to DeathOn the other hand: A lot of "cops" hired for DEI reasons need to be shitcanned.
William Evans-Ellis was brought up in a trans group where he played a key role as a shared child for all the 'moms.' A Ngo Comment investigation found what they wanted his future to be. Andy Ngo
Is there another trans cult? A woman and two men who identify as trans have been charged in Cincinnati, Ohio in the brutal torture and murder of a young special-needs boy. A Ngo Comment investigation found that the group, which included at least three men who identify as trans, had groomed the child into trans ideology from a very young age and appeared to have plans to transition him before police found him unresponsive in a closet, bound with duct tape and showing signs of torture. William Michael Evans-Ellis, 7, was recovered from an apartment in the Oakley neighborhood in Cincinnati on Aug. 6. He suffered injuries consistent with being choked and held underwater, beaten and burned. A detective testified in court that it was one of the most disturbing child abuse cases he had ever investigated. The child was found with "a number of injuries that would indicate physical beatings, blunt force injuries," he said.
Kaitlin Elizabeth Evans, 38, who is charged, is the child's biological mother. The two other suspects are biological men who identify as women: "Kirby" Rankin (prior name: Nathan Rankin), 33, and "Nessa" Keaney (prior name: Adamhnán Judaydon Caoilte Lugh Keaney), 23. The three lived together as a polycule and "co-parented" the child to death. They are charged with murder and child endangerment.
Liberal and legacy media have repeatedly reported that "three women" were charged. This follows a pattern of media outlets obscuring or omitting the trans identities of accused killers and convicted killers in an effort to protect transgenderism. The same pattern occurred in the news media coverage of the Zizian trans death cult. The boy's biological father, "Tara Jane" Evans-Ellis, 38, who was not charged, also identifies as trans. He married Evans in 2011. His real name is Thomas John (T.J.) Ellis, but he legally changed it to "Tara" in December 2023. He works as a software engineer in cybersecurity and identifies as autistic and antifa, similar to many of the Zizian members I've reported on. (There is no suggestion Ellis is linked to the Zizians.) The couple had a second, trans-themed wedding for "Tara" and his wife in 2025. Their child was put in a dress at the ceremony, according to a source with knowledge.
Thomas John Ellis before and after his 2023 transition into 'Tara Jane.' An analysis of Ellis' social media record reveals a disturbing history of posts showing he was part of that group and that they were influencing the child to become trans. Active on Mastodon, a Twitter-like social media platform popular with leftists, Ellis posted Antifa propaganda, radical queer activist material, said he was a DSA member and dabbled with the trans furry subculture--similar to Charlie Kirk assassin suspect's trans lover, Lance Twiggs.

It's the only way we can end these violent blue cities.
At 1 million MSA, the mayor of the main city is a statewide election.
At 2 million, the mayor and 2 city council seats.
And then a city council seat for each million thereafter.
Thus, Houston would have the mayor and 6 city council seats as a statewide election.
This would end blue cities.

The milestone was set in the bright yellow tubular vehicle, powered by two hydrogen internal combustion engines, which Green calls the “fuel of the future” at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah.
He easily beat the previous class record for a hydrogen engine, which had stood at 185 mph.

Let's see, we can start with "fundamentally non-serious".
And then add to it that *zero* women belong in law enforcement, because law enforcement done correctly always carries the potential for being in a *combat zone*.
Extrapolating from there, if you can't be an officer you have *zero* business being a "commissioner" and thus in charge of officers/combat zone soldiers.

Don't let it get you down. It'll be enough of a bummer without driving yourself into depression over it. Besides, it'll be such a clusterfuck that it should be over with pretty quickly. These people are completely retarded. They can't keep it gasping along for 70+ years like the Soviets did.

Trump Had to Change Planes in Turkey to Avoid a "Credible Iranian Assassination Threat."
Jake Tapper Makes the Story All About, Get This, Jake Tapper.
The media keeps digging into the Secret Service's story about what happened in Turkey.
It's almost as if they want the Secret Service's methods revealed so that foreign assassins will be better able to kill the president.President Trump's secret plane switch in Turkey is putting Air Force One's security protocols and defensive capabilities in the spotlight. Why it matters: Air Force One is the call sign for any Air Force aircraft carrying the president, meaning Trump's secret switch didn't change the designation -- but it changed the plane protecting him. Driving the news: A threat from Iran forced Trump to secretly switch planes, using a catering truck to move to a smaller aircraft, per the Washington Post. Trump flew to Turkey on a plane gifted by Qatar, which was meant to serve as Air Force One. Officials said he would return on an older presidential plane because of security concerns, per multiple reports,Good, so now Iranian assassins know that the Secret Service uses attending vehicles, like catering trucks or supply trucks, to secret move principles. Well done, Washington Post. You're great patriots for Iran. There was yet another plan to murder Trump, launched by a foreign enemy terrorist regime. Jake Tapper decides: This is really a story about how brave the press is, and how Trump's Secret Service is trying to kill them.
After boarding the older plane, Trump moved to a smaller Air Force C-32A, according to the reports. All three planes flew to the U.K., where Trump joined the Qatari plane and flew home.
The story: Iran had a serious plot to kill the president.

“Genocide joe” was a right wing psyop / propaganda that actually worked to push people against voting for the democratic candidate to help trump and maga candidates win.
Posted by: Intercepted Reddit Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at August 11, 2026 04:54 PM (d8zZq)
Was it really a "right wing psyop," though? Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I present to you the music video for "Testify" by Rage Against The Machine:
https://youtu.be/Q3dvbM6Pias
Directed by Michael Moore and released in August 2000, it used clips of Dubya, algore, and Things To Come (1936) to argue that the Democrat party candidate for President was literally the same as the Republican candidate. And by 'literally' I mean, like an invading space alien with the same mind in two bodies.
Infamously, algore went on to lose an election that to this day, Democrats still refuse to concede. Was that a right-wing psyop? RATM and Michael Moore?! Of course not! They literally did it to themselves, and so it was with the "Genocide Joe" label that followed Coconut Kam everywhere like the open-sewer stench of uncontrolled IBS. Reddit is just in cope 'n' seethe mode still.

I don't believe many whorealists fly on AF1. Only the half-dozen or so Presidential press pool reporters and video and still cameramen. The pool reporter slots rotate thru the regular White House reporters from the biggest domestic media outfits. Trump or the press secretary may let a few select others fly onboard AF1 for some trips.

I'd be sad for the collateral killing of the Air Force pilots and crew and anyone aboard not in the business of rank propaganda for America's enemies, but to say net benefit is probably not wrong in the long run.
The decade-long funeral the press would throw for their fallen comrades would be fucking insufferable, though.

Author of 2024 Democrat Autopsy Says That Crucial Section Was Suppressed by the DNC -- A Chapter Accusing Democrats of Being Greedy and Self-Serving and Putting Their Quest for "Generational Wealth" Above the Fortunes of the Party
Embattled DNC head Ken Martin claims he didn't bury this part of the autopsy. He claims he never received it.
The author of the report, Paul Rivera, says he's lying.Author of Democrats' 2024 Autopsy Says Party Left Out Key Chapter A dispute over the chapter between the author and the Democratic National Committee has added to the party's turmoil as it tries to look forward, not backward.
By Shane Goldmacher
After months of resistance, the Democratic National Committee finally relented this May and published a draft of its autopsy of what had gone wrong in the 2024 election, saying it was releasing the unfinished document "in its entirety" in the interest of transparency. But, according to the man who wrote the autopsy, there was a missing chapter. The chapter raised pointed questions that were notably absent from the draft that the party put out, both about President Joseph R. Biden Jr.'s ill-fated decision to run for re-election and the sway of an operative class that had become "generationally wealthy off politics" while steering Democratic strategy. Paul Rivera, the author of the autopsy, provided the chapter to The New York Times and spoke publicly for the first time about the party's efforts to analyze its 2024 losses. Both he and party officials agreed that the process had been messy and at times contentious. He said that the draft released by the party had been compiled from work he submitted in November and December. But he said that the draft omitted a chapter titled "What Happened in 2024," which he said he had printed out and placed in a three-ring binder that he personally handed to the party's chairman, Ken Martin, in January.
Mr. Martin sharply disputed that account, denying in a written statement that he was ever provided with the missing chapter. "That is false," Mr. Martin said. "This alleged report section was not in any binder I reviewed." He added, "If we had this in May, we would have released it with the rest of the report." He declined a request to be interviewed. The disputed "What Happened" chapter addressed several politically delicate subjects that were not included in the draft the party published in May: It questioned Mr. Biden's decision to seek re-election in the first place: "Is there a single point of failure for 2024? Perhaps it is a decision of the President to seek re-election instead of passing the torch." It analyzed the party's loss of support among Hispanic, Black, Asian American and Native American voters, which had been mostly missing from the public draft. And it pointedly raised the concern that most senior Democratic strategists in 2024 were "financially secure" and thus removed from the challenges facing many Americans. "It is therefore possible the people 'in the room' at the highest levels of 2024 decision making misunderstood the mood and practicalities facing everyday America," the report read.
... The chapter did not name names of those who had become "generationally wealthy." But Mr. Rivera wrote that those Democrats seeking change "keep banging their heads up against a system proven to be inflexible and self-enriching." "Whether that was a conscious decision on their part to bury the section for the purposes of hiding a paragraph, I don't know," Mr. Rivera said of the D.N.C. "That's a them question. What I can tell you is they had it, and they made a decision not to release it."
...
The dispute threatens to become a distraction for the party less than 100 days before the November midterm elections, when Democrats hope that President Trump's poor approval ratings will help them win control of the House and possibly the Senate. And it comes as Mr. Martin has come under fire for his stewardship of a party that recently reported more than $2 million in debt, while the Republican National Committee had $128.5 million in the bank. Mr. Rivera, whose reputation was damaged when the party released and disavowed his draft report, said he was going public because he believed the party needed sweeping changes to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past -- which would require frank conversations that he does not see happening. "It's coming from a place of hope and, honestly, a little bit of desperation," he said. "There's a very comfortable ecosystem that will profit mightily from no change," said Mr. Rivera, who added that he was now releasing his own 564-page review of the 2024 election. "And I think that we need some disruption here to force change."

Yes, the gold is there all (approximately) 147 million ounces. It is impressive, but the real point is what it still teaches in 2026.
In 1971 we severed the dollar from gold. Since then the currency has lost roughly 85% of its value. Prices are higher because the money itself is weaker.
A family making $50,000 with two kids that has not received a 25% raise in the last five years is falling behind.
This is now often called “affordability,” but the the accurate word is inflation.
We run annual deficits of two trillion dollars. The Federal Reserve buys about a third of that debt by creating new money. Every new dollar dilutes the value of the dollars already in people’s pockets. Gold does not expand when Congress spends. Paper does.
That is the difference.

We run annual deficits of two trillion dollars. The Federal Reserve buys about a third of that debt by creating new money. Every new dollar dilutes the value of the dollars already in people’s pockets. Gold does not expand when Congress spends. Paper does.
That is the difference.

No one should care. It was done so extremely poorly no one can use it for anything. The DNC failed epically.

It’d be comedic if it wasn’t ratchet-effecting us into fascism.
“Genocide joe” was a right wing psyop / propaganda that actually worked to push people against voting for the democratic candidate to help trump and maga candidates win.
I still voted Kamala for harm reduction and don't agree with sitting out of the last election. Left Is Best.
Dems punched left and down instead of punching right and up is the reason for literally every Dem failure of all sizes macro and micro
Didn't they release this last year and everyone came to the conclusion that Gaza didn't have any impact?
Everyone knew that Kamala's stance on Gaza would harm her changes, no matter how much she frowned and said "what's happening in Gaza saddens me but i don't plan on changing anything".

Yes, the gold is there all (approximately) 147 million ounces. It is impressive, but the real point is what it still teaches in 2026.
In 1971 we severed the dollar from gold. Since then the currency has lost roughly 85% of its value. Prices are higher because the money itself is weaker.
A family making $50,000 with two kids that has not received a 25% raise in the last five years is falling behind.
This is now often called “affordability,” but the the accurate word is inflation.
We run annual deficits of two trillion dollars. The Federal Reserve buys about a third of that debt by creating new money. Every new dollar dilutes the value of the dollars already in people’s pockets. Gold does not expand when Congress spends. Paper does.
That is the difference.

Ah Rand is a chip off the old block. Completely wrong about gold of course. Once again class - monetary inflation is caused by inflating the supply of currency in a manner disproportionate to the productivity of the economy upon which the currency is based.

X handle 'Fever Update' has claimed that the franchise has already let go of their head coach.
The handle also claimed that the team will announce a new head coach before the Fever's upcoming game against the New York Liberty.
However, in reality, the Fever have made no such announcement. As things stand, White remains the head coach of the team, albeit with many wanting her to be sacked.

Gold is more like a limiter.
When gold was covertible to currency it keeps the government from printing more than the gold coming in from the mines.
It works a lot like BitCoin in that those 'coins' have to be mined into existence.
It's the rarity that makes gold valuable and kept inflation limited to gold output more or less.
When we went off of the Gold Standard, and then Nixon stopped convertibility by foreign governments, it allowed the U.S. to print more dollars and let it float against other currencies. Debt & inflation have been growing exponentially ever since.

Actually one of the original reason Muslims spread through the Levant and North Africa was that the Byzantine's oppression of various Christian sects made Islam's tax for infidels a better deal, and overall the tax burden of the smaller Islamic state's government was a better deal. The tax burden was also a thing in the Persian direction.

"Republicans for Talarico" Turns Out To Be, Get This, A Bunch of Lifelong Democrat Donors ("And Other Losers," Says the RNC)
Wait, Democrats are lying to me?
This changes everything.Wait -- if this is a scam, does that mean that The Bulwark, The Dispatch, and National Review might be scams, too?
'Republicans For Talarico' Exposed As Complete Scam "This lame rebrand of White Dudes for Kamala is full of lifelong Democrat donors, activists, and other losers." Jacob Wheeler
Leftist outlet MS NOW aired a segment featuring three Texas women who identified themselves as Republicans and vowed to cross over for James Talarico -- but records show at least some of them have voted in Democratic primaries and donated to liberal candidates and causes. Talarico, who has sparked backlash for his fringe views on Christianity, affection for transgender children, and disdain for the American flag, is banking on Republican crossover support to become the first Texas Democrat elected statewide in decades. "Republicans for Talarico is as real as the six genders that Talarico claims exist, but has yet to explain what they are. This lame rebrand of White Dudes for Kamala is full of lifelong Democrat donors, activists, and other losers," RNC spokesman Zach Kraft said in a statement to The Daily Wire. That "rebrand" was put on display earlier this month when MS NOW aired a segment from the political show "Long Play," featuring three white women from Tarrant County who portrayed themselves as disgruntled conservatives eager to vote for one of the most liberal candidates in Texas to run for federal office. The exchange went viral after Talarico's campaign seized on the segment, dubbing the women "Republican Moms." During the segment, former school board candidate Mindy McClure described herself as a "moderate Republican," but as the saying goes, follow the money. Federal Election Commission filings show McClure has repeatedly given through ActBlue to Democratic candidates and anti-Trump groups dating back to 2018, including the Lincoln Project and Kamala Harris' 2024 presidential campaign. "You've been Republicans for most of your voting lives. Who's voting for James Talarico?" asked Jennifer Palmieri, the former communications director for Hillary Clinton's failed presidential campaign. All three of the so-called Republican moms raised their hands, arguing they had been duped by conservative culture-war messaging about "woke" politics in elementary schools. ... Montgomery hasn't voted in a Republican primary since at least 2017 and over the last 20 years has voted in more Democratic primaries than Republican primaries, according to a Republican source who has reviewed the voting records. Texas reporter Tony Ortiz also reviewed the records, which showed that at least two of the women participated in Democratic primaries despite identifying themselves as Republican voters during the interview. "Ran the voting record for one of the 'Republican' women featured here and she's already been voting in Democratic primaries this year," Ortiz wrote in a post on X. "Seems disingenuous to call yourself Republican if you've already been voting Dem."
I ran into a “Republicans for Talarico” type lady here once, came into my replies talking about how she was a lifelong conservative Republican voter who’d been forced to support Democrats because of how radical the Republican Party had become, so I searched her history and found… https://t.co/9k6DEAjPBY

RIP "Republicans for Talarico"

The video includes footage of Trump explicitly saying he would do that in 2024 while campaigning in the state.
And yet the entire video is how dare Trump do this!!!!! Uhm assholes he did what he said he’d do. It’s kinda how elections are supposed to work.
Trump has been one of the few politicians to do this. Like him or not you shouldn’t be surprised by anything he’s done. He spelled it out loud and clear for everyone during the election.
So these “lifelong Republicans” are either liars or retards being shocked that the man they voted for is doing exactly what he promised to do.

NC right now is just name recognition and the fact that NC summer polling is bullshit.
The state has moved appreciably to the right in voter registrations since Cooper last won statewide. 400,000 Democrat advantage in 2020 to 10,000 Republican advantage in 2026. Cooper won by 250,000 votes in 2020.
His governorship ended poorly (Helene), and the GOP is hanging Iryna's death on him because of the soft on crime policies.
And, he's of the wrong party. Larry Hogan was a popular governor of MD. He was a Republican in a Democrat dominated state, but he was popular as governor. And then he ran for federal office and PVI kicked in and he lost by double digits when he ran for Senate.
We'll see, but any which way, it will not be a blowout in Cooper's favor.

Michigan’s far-left Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed is facing fresh scrutiny after a video resurfaced showing the progressive candidate taking aim at one of America’s most beloved sports.
“Football is very much associated with a particularly masculine and, oftentimes, toxically masculine culture. And so much of it was about—you wanted to be able to get back up and play for your team, and you really aren’t allowed to show pain or vulnerability. That’s part of the sport,” El-Sayed declared in a February 2023 podcast released shortly before the Super Bowl, according to The Washington Times.
I watched the Detroit Lions for years. Toxic Masculinity would be one of the last phrases that would come to my mind.
I did deal blackjack to Wayne Fontes once at the casino.

They'll spend their energy shopping for a couple years and then maybe think about accessorizing with another dude, when they've bought everything else already.

Ken Paxton is an extremist, so his supporters are ipso facto not “moderate republicans.” Very few moderates remain within the Republican Party.
Talarico needs to drop an occasional F bomb and do more to vilify the Republican establishment. Not too much, not to extent Paxton is. Polls indicate he is barely above Paxton. Meanwhile in other races those who express their rage do much better.

The DNC is rather like the WWI British general staff. They were obsessed with getting the moral victory of "breaking the German lines at their strongest point". Which was rather hard on the average Tommy.

Yep, it's a hazard.
Coughing is OK, because you can usually still do other stuff while you're coughing. But sneezing shuts your whole body off while it's busy expelling fungi, or whatever, and is therefore potentially very dangerous.

But none can really articulate what it is they find so horrifying. Don’t get me wrong, Trump can do things that I just want to take his ability to tweet away over, there are definitely times I wish he would be what we think of as presidential. But what he is doing outweighs my momentary cringe. Plus he goes and saves a little guy from falling off a stage and he is endearing.
He has given speeches that are incredible, and I want to bottle that and sprinkle it on him when he is…not so much.

He also mentioned trying to somehow get UV light into the body to kill the virus, but nobody wants to bring that one up.

The closest actual quote is from Trump’s April 23, 2020, White House coronavirus briefing (not a direct instruction to the public to inject bleach):“And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning. Because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it would be interesting to check that. So, that, you’re going to have to use medical doctors with. But it sounds — it sounds interesting to me.”
snopes.com
This came right after Department of Homeland Security official Bill Bryan discussed how bleach and isopropyl alcohol quickly kill the virus on surfaces. Trump was floating the idea of studying whether something similar could work internally (framed as a question to experts about potential research), while also talking about UV light. He did not say “inject bleach,” name household products as something people should use on themselves, or tell the public to do it.

I found no smoking-gun evidence of a crime, but there is corroborative evidence that has already been reported in the news. The corroborative evidence can be paired with testimony from others like Tony Bobulinski to build a legitimate case if any prosecutor were to pursue it.
The laptop did not contain any graphic evidence of sex crimes with minors simply because Giuliani removed it. It would have been illegal for him to transfer that kind of content to non-law enforcement, so it was removed when he curated the contents
And BTW, Hunter's friendly emails with Tucker are among the first the viewer encounters. Giuliani segregated those.

No, TSAR Nicholas was not. He was a decent person in over his head. He was a good, intelligent family man. He and his family in no way deserved what came to them.
He was thrust into a job he never really wanted. That said, he made some terrible decisions as Emperor. Whether different decisions would have produced better outcomes, I cannot say. The WWI era, like all other histoical eras, was a complicated time.

She will spend a half hour talking about medical issues with me if that's what she thinks I need. She bills by the visit, not the hour. And if she doesn't know the answer, she researches it and gets back to me, instead of feeding me a line about whatever pharmaceutical company is shilling this week.
I drive over an hour to see her when I need to. I wouldn't waste time like that if she wasn't the real deal.

@HansMahncke 21h Even if we step back and say, fine, perhaps they were simply trying to understand the potential risks and mechanisms involved, the broader point is still horrifying. This was January 2021, a full month after the rollout of an industrial scale effort to inject this experimental product into billions of people, yet at the same time they were secretly discussing catastrophic consequences they did not understand. Just look at Biden Surgeon General Vivek Murthy's reply to Fauci, speculating about the possibility of DNA mutations in fetuses. They had absolutely no idea what this stuff might do. And then, not only did they conceal these problems, but perhaps even worse, they forced this drug on the population under threat of losing their jobs, their ability to travel, and even their freedom.

No - they clowned themselves. Others, and me too clowned them repeatedly. There was no safety data, and then when there was "safety data" it showed it wasn't safe. Then it showed it didn't work either. Then it showed you were actually more likely to get it if you got the shot than if you didn't. No. There were tons of people on here setting straight any trust the expert bullshit that fauci and company were spouting. The were also some people who were pushing masks, but they got clowned as well.

I read an article some weeks back that said there have been about 64 million abortions conducted in the US since roe vs. wade and the majority of those babies aborted were black. That is almost the same number as the population of france.

it's 12 percent of all PG women BUT the bulk of the pregnant participants were into the third trimester. the shot killed babies in the 1st and 2nd - mostly 1st. so if you go with all the pregnant women, 12 percent miscarried. that is still horrible!
if you go with early pregnancies, it's 80 percent. which is horrific
btw I have known this, not for sure, but the data has been out there.
what's new is the texts showing Fauci and other docs knew it right away, had the data and hid it.
if the data said something nice, liberal idiots, they wouldn't have hid it! derp

There seems to be some serious memory hole-ing of what 2020-2021 was like concerning the vaccine. If you weren’t subject to any of the mandates and chose not to get it, you apparently had blood on your hands.
This was on the White House website:
“For the unvaccinated, you’re looking at a winter of severe illness and death for yourselves, your families, and the hospitals you may soon overwhelm.”

That alone tells you how much responsibility Trump has for all of this. If they could reasonably pin any of this on him, the MSM would be busily counterprogramming the social media narrative to pin it on him. They can't, because it would only point to the media's culpability in this affair.

Well, considering the data is for the first trimester of pregnancy I think they may be making shit up.
its 3 months. If you are 12% likely to miscarry in a pregnancy, and 80% of miscarriages happen in the first trimester.
you would expect the group of pregnant women in the study to miscarry in the first 3 months to be 9.6% Not twelve percent and not in the 80%. Now if they claim that there was an unusual distribution of miscarriages in the beginning of the study that was then evened out by an unusual distribution of reduced miscarriages later in the study I am very dubious. Also, you don't email around to you pals about miscarriage concerns in 2021 if the data was that shitty. Its another fucking coverup.

The press's power is waning, and it's been waning since, like, the 80s.
There have been spurts of decline in trust that have accelerated it over time. Kind of like a step ladder down.
It's been replaced by social media and the bubbles therein.
Musk buying Twitter was big, but I still maintain that Bari Weiss getting control of CBS News may end up being bigger.
It's the LIVs who watch evening news, and CBS no longer being raging leftist but only moderately leftist and willing to do stories that occassionally hurt Democrats will crumble the wall of cultural hegemony that Democrats have in a new direction, not through alternate media, that could have even longer lasting effects.

Trump had little choice on that one. Just like the GOPe foisted GHWB on Reagan, who wanted Paul Laxalt as VP (thanks, whig!), Priebus wouldn't get the GOP on board with Trump after the nomination unless Trump picked one of their guys. Pence was the only one who was willing to do it.

Only Trump had been chief executive of the federal government when the election of 2020 rolled around.
Democrats cheated by mail in ballot for months before shutting down ballot counting in six states to ballot box like Tammany Hall to barely beat him in the electoral college.
Trump made mistakes (oh boy), but the people understood that he was on their side enough that Democrats had to burn the rulebook of elections to get rid of him.
I think that arguing it now, years later, is really just reinforcing those impressions people had. I doubt anyone is going from pro-Trump to anti-Trump over covid NOW as opposed to what would have happened in the moment in 2020.

If I was a doctor I'd be really pissed, because if I went by what Fauci, the CDC and the rest of the medical bureaucracy told me, then I'd have told my patients that HCQ & Ivermectin were quack medicine and that the vaccine was 100% safe & effective at preventing infection and transmission.
But I don't see many doctors getting outraged about this, at least publicly, for some strange reason.

Seems to me that this is part of the brainwashing we were all subjected to - the idea that all the evils of Nazi Germany were all because of one man - Hitler - and that once he was dead, we didn't have to worry about it any more.
In reality, I suspect the Globalaists are the same people who were behind Hitler. Certainly they have a lot in common with Nazis, with the cozy relationship between corporations (the super-wealthy) and the government.
Hell, at this point I look back at the story of Hitler's death and it seems like a stupid story that we were all fools to ever believe. He shot himself, and magically his body was disposed of without a trace?
The Nazis really DID have connections in South America, and OF COURSE Hitler would have had an escape plane for when things went South. Some of those nutty stories we used to hear in the tabloids, decades ago, about him being alive down there might have actually been true.

I don't go to news sites because I find their advertising WORSE than what is found here. All those popup video animations and so forth. The only way to surf the internet on ANY website these days is to go ad free. The advertisers destroyed the internet the same way they destroyed television - oversaturation of the market.

That actually was the official line when it became apparent that the shots greatly increased miscarriages. Since the mothers survived the miscarriages, the adverse effect of spontaneous abortion was deemed "resolved" and therefore not a consequential side effect.
Posted by: Emmie at August 11, 2026 03:20 PM (OlzlW)
But since the clot shot doesn't stop you from getting COVID it doesn't matter. Look at this way, suppose the odds of miscarrying due to COVID were 10% and the clot shot stopped it. Then the debate becomes does the clot shot increased your change of miscarrying by more or less then 10%?
But since it does not stop the spread it doesn't matter. If COVID has a 10% risk of miscarriage and the clot shot 5% its 15% if you take the shot so you shouldn't.

Nah. The Soviets were very, very interested in the fate of him and many others. Quite a few witnesses of key individuals who spent the last days in the Berlin bunker.
They matched skeletal remains with dental records and such.
There's a really interesting book, a diary actually, supposedly written by Heinrich Muller iirc, who was, so the story goes. smuggled to the US and worked for the spooks during the Truman era. I don't find it particularly persuasive but it is an excellent book, at any rate.

I get a GIANT video ad for a new Samsung phone that takes up half the vertical real-estate.
Scrolling down the page, there's an animated ad for women's clothing that's highly distracting for all the wrong reasons.
In the middle of the page is an ad for a product called "Prodenta" with an image that makes me wish I had toe fungus instead.
Every site that allows advertising is like this.

MDs are still clinging to the old brainwashing where the doctor is infallible, and you must do whatever they command because they KNOW BEST from all their years of training. You're not supposed to know that their training is biased by financial interests.
How can they admit they were duped? How can they rage against the very establishment whose approval they STILL need to practice their livelihood? It was only the courageous few who spoke out, when this was first going on.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani threw his staff under the bus Tuesday after an awkward public disagreement between City Hall and NYPD officials over whether the department will send cops to serve as security detail for his wife Rama Duwaji’s upcoming Middle East trip.
Mamdani appeared to blame a mistake by his City Hall staff after a high-profile back-and-forth with the police department.
“There was a miscommunication. She has not yet taken that trip and when she takes that trip it will be without any NYPD detail,” Mamdani told PIX11.

Pregnant women are advised to not eat lunch meat and not take OTC meds (along with avoiding smoking and alcohol) because there's a chance it could harm the baby. But with Covid, suddenly they were told to take experimental Covid shots and also flu and RSV shots during pregnancy. It's like medical knowledge flipped in 2021.

King Harv's coffee being an example. But on-line gun dealers, maybe some liquor and cigar makers, to name a few. He pooh-poohed the idea.

After twenty years of daily use, your vision turns bluish. At my age, I’ll be lucky to be around in twenty years. Also HCQ is a slightly modified quinine molecule, the hydroxychloro bit is an HCl added on one end of the quinine molecule. They went to HCQ because the Plasmodium malariae parasite was evolving to be immune to quinine. In some parts of the world they are going back to quinine because the parasite is becoming immune to HCQ. It’s an ongoing battle.

I worked on a few covid vaccine trials - integrating clinical data collection and cleaning systems.
I remember specifically that on one study, pregnancy was a screening exclusion criteria. Meaning if you were pregnant, you couldn't be a trial subject (patient).
The moment I knew that the political leaders were lying through their teeth about everything was when they said that getting the vaccine meant you couldn't transmit the virus to someone else. There was absolutely nothing in any of the clinical trials that would, or even could, justify that statement. It's not something that could possibly be captured during a clinical trial with any degree of quality.

There's at least one person here who plays the Champions tabletop RPG, so he'll know what I'm talking about.
An early adventure for Champions had as its premise that an Israeli scientist invents a time machine and sends superhuman Mossad agents back in time to kill Hitler. Which they do. But since all the conditions for a militant, resurgent Germany were still there and none of the Manhattan Project scientists fled Germany in the 1940s, WWII happens instead in the 1970s. With nuclear weapons.

Tuq'r Qarlson Has On His Old Addict-Pal Hunter Biden to Explain That the Laptop Was a Fake Created By (Get This) Jews
Hunter Biden claimed Monday that he didn't abandon his infamous laptop packed with incriminating documents at a Delaware computer shop in 2019, but that the files were actually stolen from his online cloud storage -- despite the FBI presenting the MacBook Pro as evidence in court. Hunter, 56, claimed an unknown person or entity broke into his accounts to steal the trove that showed how he involved his then-vice-president dad in lucrative international consulting relationships. "They hacked my cloud," the former first son told former Fox News host Tucker Carlson in a two-hour interview -- suggesting that Russian or Israeli intelligence agencies or "some kid in his basement" had cobbled together stolen digital assets and claimed they were a laptop. "There's no possible way all of the information that was eventually labeled as my laptop came from one laptop. It's way too large," he told Carlson. The actual laptop was presented as evidence at the then-first son's 2024 illegal gun possession trial. FBI Special Agent Erika Jensen testified that the MacBook Pro 13's serial number on the back belonged to then-President Joe Biden's son -- as he sat in the courtroom. Repairman John Paul Mac Isaac gave the laptop to the FBI after copying its files, resulting in The Post's bombshell reporting on how Joe Biden as vice president met with an executive from a Ukrainian gas company that was paying Hunter $1 million a year -- while Joe spearheaded the Obama administration's relationship with Kyiv. Other files showed that Joe Biden was penciled in for a 10% cut in a Chinese government-linked business venture and that Hunter brought Mexican business associates to meet his father and met with his dad in close proximity to engagements with a corrupt Romanian tycoon. False claims that the files were hacked or doctored prompted censorship by Twitter and Facebook shortly before the 2020 election and Joe Biden claimed they were a "Russian plant" -- though months later other major news outlets confirmed their authenticity. "You have as good a guess as mine in terms of actually who was the original hacker of that information, who has the capacity to be able to do it," Hunter Biden told Carlson. "I don't have digital forensic evidence that it was hacked by this person or this entity or this organization that it was Mossad, or that it was the GRU, or that it was, or that it was some kid in his basement."Tuq'r Qarlson's website just defended Abdul El-Sayed, claiming that the "neocons" smear all enemies of Israel as "terrorists." As I said, he will have El-Sayed on for a promotional "interview" within weeks. I can't find that item now but I will post it when I do find it again.
... Hunter claimed that "not one single thing of criminal activity other than use of drugs and all of the things that are associated with addiction is proved by the laptop."
In September 2024, the then-first son pleaded guilty to failing to pay at least $1.4 million in federal taxes between 2016 and 2019 on the international business relationships chronicled in the laptop. He separately was convicted in June 2024 of three gun felonies. Biden family critics argued that laptop files showed that Hunter was working as an unregistered foreign agent, though he was not criminally charged.

Us Caller reporters thought this would be a great way to refute Bidenworld's claims at that time that the laptop emails were fake or illegitimate. Someone who emailed with Hunter could verify their authenticity! We thought Tucker would be more than happy to help, and no ill will was intended. But no. Tucker lashed out at the Daily Caller employee who was tasked with contacting him about this, saying that a story on that would be an "attack on my family," or something along those lines.

The shop had receipts for Hunter bringing the laptop in. Receipts signed by Hunter Biden.
There's no dispute he physically dropped the laptop off and then either abandoned or forgot about it.
Indeed, Hunter himself admitted all this. To be sure, he alternatively denied the laptop was his, but at times he admitted it.
Besides, do we really need to resort to James Bondstein international spy shit to explain how a degenerate crackhead whoremaster with worms squirming in his head stupidly stored incriminating shit on this laptop, dropped it off at a shop, and then forgot about it?

Interesting. I know Joe Biden and Bibi hated each other, and Bibi wanted Trump in office because he’s easy to manipulate.
Did Tucker not ask him about the "real, authentic and damning" documents he totally had, but sadly lost in the mail? I can´t believe Bowtie is taken seriously by anyone.
JVL from the Bulwark also used to be friends with Tucker. Apparently he seems like a nice guy IRL. Anyway, dude has major Israel Derrangement Syndrom.
He's awful and libs need to stop latching onto him because he attacks Trump.

Dave Callum on the Three Bald Guys podcast brought up a weird conspiracy theory about Charlie Kirk. There's some picture of Erika at his funeral where she's standing by his coffin and holding his hand. And his hand looks way smaller than hers, when he was taller in life than she and should've had larger hands -- the implication being that the body in the coffin wasn't Charlie's.
I've not seen the picture, so I can't comment, but apparently that theory is out there.

Yeah, I just don't buy that. He had money enough, and certainly had a big soapbox, first with Fox, and then with his podcasts, so he didn't lack for attention. He didn't need to go into such toxic territory at all. I think a set screw might have come loose somewhere.

And Tucker Carlson is so fucking far gone, and in the bag compromised, he is only having this guy on to sell this shit because he is compromised and or lunatic.

A google oligarch created a new ad service company and pitched an extremely lucrative deal to Drudge, give up editorial control and you get the $$$. Which he did and then retired to FL with his long term boyfriend.
At least as of when I checked a few years ago the ad service company had no other clients.

I think there may also be an addiction to attention - whether positive or negative. Actors suffer from the same thing - they love the applause, their picture in celebrity magazines, fan mail, adoration - they suffer withdrawal when it goes away unless they are very very stable individuals. But then, I'm not a psychiatrist/psychologist, so my thoughts are worth what it cost for me to type the words.

His claim was he was in bed with his wife and 4 dogs, woke up after a dream of being attacked by a demon and found blood on his sheets, but the wife and dogs were still asleep.
I remember I cut my face once in my sleep with a sharp finger nail. Maybe one of the dogs got him with a paw nail.

The repairman? A Mossad agent.
The contents of its hard drive? Completely fake (and also jewish).
Here's what really happened, folks: Israeli male model Shlomo Laptopowitz, globally renowned for his near perfect resemblance to a laptop snuck into Hunter Biden's house replacing Biden's real laptop. The following day Biden noticed his laptop was not working as usual (since it was now an Israeli make model) and took it to a laptop repair store that the Mossad had constructed next to his house the over the previous couple days.
Using AI that hadn't been invented yet, the Mossad (or IDF, I'm open minded) then created a dumped a bunch of completely fake images of Hunter Biden smoking crack and showing off his cock in a last ditch attempt to sink Joe Biden's campaign.
Why they'd use such a convoluted plan I'm not sure and looking back on Biden's presidency I'm also not sure why they'd wanted to keep him out of the oval office so bad, but the fact of the matter is that THEY JUST DID. You can't argue with this folks, I presented all my unprovable assertions as evidence right here.
So in conclusion: IT'S DA JOOOOOOOS!

It really is silly.
The phone in Hunter’s pocket probably holds about half of the data as his laptop did.
Is he saying all of his emails, texts/messages, and photos/videos on his smaller phone won’t fit on his laptop either?
A free iCloud account only holds 5GB of data, so Hunter should show the receipts where he is paying Apple for more iCloud storage every month.

Presumptive DSA Candidate for Wisconsin Governor Once Voted Against a Law to Prohibit Teachers from Sexually Grooming Young Children
Francesca Hong thinks that banging kids is a teacher's right.
Wisconsin socialist Francesca Hong voted against anti-child grooming law responding to pervy teacher pursuing 14-year-old By Ryan KingThere was no actual law against the grooming so they convicted him on a bunch of misdemeanors. Lawmakers moved to make grooming of children by a teacher a felony -- and Hong insisted that her decarceration agenda means child groomers must go free.
WASHINGTON -- Wisconsin socialist darling Francesca Hong was one of just six lawmakers in the Badger State's legislature to vote against an anti-child grooming law enacted earlier this year by Democratic Gov. Tony Evers, records show. The law -- which bars adults from "engaging in a course of conduct, pattern of behavior, or series of acts with the intention to condition, seduce, solicit, lure, or entice a child" into sexual activity or pornography -- was in response to the case of former Kenosha school teacher Christian Enwright, who was found guilty of a slew of misdemeanor counts for pursuing a relationship with a 14-year-old student. "[Enwright] engaged in classic grooming behavior, preying on the vulnerability of at least one female student, under the guise of being a mentor, to foster and further a predatory relationship with her," a school district investigator wrote in a report quoted by the Cap Times in December 2025.
Yes, she really dismissed all of her incendiary communist positions by saying that she was just doing some "bad takes on twitter."
Enwright began reaching out to the minor on Snapchat in June 2023 and exchanged more than 600 messages with her, including sexualized comments about her appearance and images of himself in bed without a shirt. At least two staffers had privately expressed concerns about Enwright's behavior toward female students and he had a reputation for giving "long hugs," according to the Cap Times. Eventually, the school district's human resources team received an anonymous tip about his behavior toward the teen in February 2024 and he was arrested, charged, and fired three months later. However, prosecutors had difficulty bringing a case against Enwright because he never had sexual contact with the girl and none of the photos he sent or asked the teen for were explicit enough to charge him with a felony under state law. Ultimately, Enwight pleaded guilty in April 2025 to 15 misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct and was sentenced that July to 15 months in jail and three years of probation. The subsequent outcry lead to the Wisconsin legislature passing the anti-grooming law, with the Assembly approving it 93-6 and the state Senate passing it by voice vote. It is unclear why Hong, the leading Democratic gubernatorial candidate ahead of Tuesday's primary, opposed the bill -- though her colleagues who voted against it suggested the measure was redundant in state law. Hong's campaign did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The 37-year-old previously expressed support for both defunding and abolishing the police. "Police exist to uphold white supremacy. Defund then abolish. Reform can't be an option," Hong posted on social media in October 2021, though she has since retreated from that position. "I was actually trying to become a sports journalist when I first went to college, so I learned you sometimes have bad takes on Twitter," she recently told reporters in a bid to explain her radicalism.

@SwannMarcus89
I am now unironically likely R on the Wisconsin gubernatorial race. 7 months ago Francesca Hong voted against a bill that made it illegal for teachers to groom their students for sexual purposes Here's what happened: A 30-year-old teacher messaged a 13-year-old student of his every day for six months and talked about how he wanted them to be together, she had a nice body, and he was jealous when she talked to other boys. He also sent her pictures of himself lying shirtless in bed So the cops arrested him but when they went to charge him, they realized nothing he did was actually illegal. They never made sexual contact and no pictures were exchanged that were explicit enough to qualify under Wisconsin state law. This guy was actively trying to rape a 13-year-old student and there was no law forbidding his conduct He wound up being charged with a bunch of disturbing the peace charges and only spent six months in prison for spending half a year abusing his authority as a teacher to manipulate a 13-year-old girl into having sex with him. He is not a convicted felon - since all the charges were misdemeanors - and is not on the sex offender registry The Wisconsin State Assembly responded to this by drafting a bipartisan bill that made it a felony to engage in any course of conduct clearly and obviously intended seduce or lure a child into engaging in sexual acts or exchanging illicit images. It passed 193-6 and was signed into law by the Democratic governor. Francesca Hong voted no. 4 months later the first person was charged under the new law. He was 36-year-old man who met a developmentally disabled 16-year-old in a public park when she was 13 and spent the next three years trying to manipulate her into running away from home so he could make her his live-in sex slave. To recap: Earlier *this very year* Franesca Hong was one of only six people to vote against a bill that made it illegal to take affirmative action designed to lure a minor into sexual acts and the very first person the bill Hong voted against was used to arrest was a guy who tried to rape an underage girl with Down Syndrome I have never seen a Democratic candidate this bad. This is like Mark Robinson territory.
Steve GuestThe primary election is today and there seems to be no chance Hong can be defeated. Meanwhile, the GOP has run zero ads against her, because they want her to win.
@SteveGuest
CNN NewsNight EXPOSES how the woke mind virus infected the Democrat Party: @yemisi
: "Francesca Hong is a deeply unserious person. I think we've all but lost Wisconsin if she wins this primary... We're laughing now, but this is the way a lot of people were talking. White women were apologizing to me about their own whiteness, and so Francesca Hong saying her proximity to whiteness and her biracial son makes her uncomfortable. Quite frankly, if we take that and put it in 2019, it all kinda gels and fits together." @jasonrantz
: "Which is why it's just so ironic to hear AOC talk about woke 1.0 as if number one, she wasn't a part of it when she obviously was, and she's trying to rewrite history. But woke 2.0 is just as bad. They maybe adapted some of the language that they use, and to say, "Well, no, I've evolved from that position." The question then becomes, for anyone who says woke 1.0 was crazy, was too-- Okay, tell us what specifically. Tell us what positions were too far to one side. Was it the defunding the police? Because you'll still get the same answer out of a lot of these folks. They'll just give it in a slightly different way, but their end result is exactly the same." @Jesse_Leg
: "Well, this is the thing, right? I actually give Francesca Hong a little bit of credit. I mean, from the perspective that Thanksgiving is good and delicious. But to AOC, I would ask the question, 'if Woke 1 was crazy, well, which priors did you hold during Woke 1 that you no longer subscribe to? Do you believe that children shouldn't be able to have sex change operations anymore? Do you believe that biological men shouldn't be able to participate in women's sports? Do you disavow defunding the police, not prosecuting repeat offenders, the border policies of the first Biden administration?' These are all very good questions, 'cause I don't haven't heard her change her mind on much of anything from Woke 1."

"The Republicans have spent more money on TV advertising for Francesca Hong than every Democratic candidate has spent combined. Literally her entire TV footprint is Republican Super PACs. She currently has zero dollars of her own television ad buys lined up, has spent zero dollars on TV ads the entire campaign, has no support from outside money that isn’t a Republican psyop, has one-tenth of Tom Tiffany’s cash on hand, and can’t receive support from the DNC because the party is broke"
Hong is operation chaos, funded by Peter Thiel.

Oh this is only hard because there are so many reasons...
1) The left supports grooming of kids as part of LGBTQ crap. Yes this is a straight male pedo, but the same laws will be used against LGBTQ groomers
2) He's a teacher, protected class.
3) The victim is probably a white girl, and Hong hates white people

Part of the reason that we can't just get along with the left is because what they want right no is objectively bad for the country. I mean you have to laugh here, stuff that would have gotten Hong kicked out of the D party 10 years ago is going to get her to win the D primary now

Turnout differential is a thing (not even Obama's people figured out how to reverse it for his midterms).
Out of power parties tend to see higher turnout. It just happens.
However, candidate quality, especially in state-level races, can shift the balance. People are a bit less blindly partisan when it comes to races for things like governor (Larry Hogan being Republican governor of MD for a recent example, before he tanked his race for senate of the same state despite being a popular governor).

I'm thinking she loses and the MI terrorist wins. But I wouldn't be entirely shocked if they both win.
I hate predicting election results now - have not been doing at all since 2020 burned me. Even polling is fake. Right now I would roll a decent stash on the jihadist and not feel bad about it. We are marinating in someone's storytime.

1. Dude looks creepier and gayer than James Talafreako. I'm surprised his victim was a girl.
2. Girl at 13 had her own access to snapchat and TT and privately communicated with this pervert for years. Where the fuck were her parents?
3. Pervert would have succeeded in eventually raping the girl. She was "into" the grooming and even tried to protect and cover up for him when police got involved. Incredible. Groomers know who to target.
4. Wasn't just pure messaging. There were reports of inappropriate touching at school too.
5. If this was a gay pervert grooming a male student, would anything have happened? My guess is no.

Michigan Dems only nominated him by 15,000 votes, thanks to three muslim dominated towns. He got swamped in counties won/lost. Immediately after winning he threatened his opponent and demeaned the Democrats who didn't vote for him. His appeal will be further diluted when he faces a Republican, albeit a deep state Republican, who is well known and inoffensive. I'm no election analyst but this looks like a GOP pick up to me, barring some disaster.

And no, I completely reject the idea that women are better than men. Each sex has its strengths and in a good relationship are intended to complement each other.

Everyone assumes Cooper is the favorite for a couple of reasons.
He's a former governor who left office 2 years ago who is running in an open seat, so he's effectively an incumbent. His name recognition is through the roof.
But everything else beyond that tells a different story.
The last time he won election was 2020. There were 400,000 more registered Democrats than Republicans in the state. Now, there are 10,000 more Republicans than Democrats. He won that race by 250,000 votes.
That alone should tell people that this is, at best, toss up territory.
But, polling, right? Look back at the 2020 polling of the NC senate race. Cunningham was running away with it, until he lost to Tillis in the actual election. Senate polling in general sucks (avg. movement of 7 points to the GOP from summer to election day over the past few cycles).
On top of that, Cooper left office with a couple of major issues (Helene response and something that's built up since, his soft on crime policies which led to Iryna's death).
In addition, we've seen "popular" governors of the wrong party lose federal statewide races even when still considered popular because they are of the wrong party. Think of Larry Hogan going from popular MD governor to losing by double digits in the Senate race just in 2024.
I really think Cooper is the actual underdog.

The only thing it needed to stop in 2024 was slight, outside pushback from the RNC.
Since, the DOJ has been put in antagonistic to Democrat hands, in particular the Civil Rights Division under Harmeet Dhillon.
Democrats will cheat again, for sure.
They cannot cheat at the same levels as 2020 or 2022 again. The can't cheat at the same levels as 2024.

AI summary of two contradictory Vandy studies of the 24 election:
A July 2025 study found that Polymarket significantly outperformed traditional polling. It found that Polymarket’s Wisdom of the Crowds approach was more accurate and dynamically responsive to real-world events, particularly in key swing states like Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania. The study suggested that betting markets provided superior predictive power for the 2024 election outcome compared to conventional poll aggregators.
Conversely, a December 2025 study found that higher trading volume does not guarantee accuracy. Analyzing over 2,500 contracts they found that PredictIt was the most accurate, while Polymarket was the least accurate despite having the highest volume. The researchers attributed Polymarket’s lower accuracy to herd behavior and market manipulation (such as the "French Whale" phenomenon), suggesting that its massive liquidity introduced "noise" rather than signal.

My theory (which is based on some experience in my pro bono work) is that those who are truly serious about suicide just go ahead and do it, and can't be stopped. They just sneak out one night and jump in front of a subway (this actually happened to a kid I knew back in the day).
The rest do it 99% for attention. We had girls -- it's usually girls -- "attempt" suicide multiple times, over and over, and even went so far as to cut themselves. But each time, they almost carefully chose the time and place so that others could intervene.
But who knows? Maybe one day these attention-seekers eventually go all the way.

One thing that can't be stressed enough...
In 2000 the Dems accused the Republicans of stealing the election in FL. The FL state government made the actual ballots available along with all the election data and the left spent month forensically going through the ballots to in the end find Shrub's vote count had been undercounted by a few ballots. No fraud.
In 2020 the Reps accused the Dems of stealing the election in the 6 states that stopped counting because of a leaky sink in Atlanta. The Dems then arrest and cancelled anyone they could repeating the claims, hid and later burned the ballots, and hid every piece of information they could
Now the Rep actions after 2000 show a group of people that know the election was above board...so what do the Dem actions in 2020 show?

Even "valid" voting this way is a form of cheating imo where you have ballot harvesting over long time periods. Democrats have always had an advantage at boots on the ground with all their public sector unions as foot soldiers.

They really lost the genetic lottery there. Hilariously, most of them have amazing calves. Asian women that never work on their calves, and do all the booty guru workout moves (squats, RDLs, split squats, hip thrusts, etc) have massive, muscular calves, and saggy, flat butt-cheeks.

Mail in voting has pulled back significantly since 2020 and 2022.
Many of the laws that made easier mail in voting have been repealed.
There are exceptions, like CA went all mail in voting making that statewide something of a lost cause, but mail in voting got a whole lot tighter in the last few years.

The AWFULs are of course more odious than the rest, but trying to pick out any woman in government where you can say "She is definitely a net asset to that state/court/congress/etc." is an exercise in futility. Margaret Thatcher comes to mind, but then who else? Even the women on "our side" are mostly attention-seeking loons with weird sexual kinks and perversions.

I agree with both of your points, but the question is WHY did she get so many fewer votes than Biden. One starts, of course, with the fact that Biden didn't get anything remotely like the number of votes he was credited with getting. Secondly, though, is that even Democrats, or at least some of them, have a limit beyond which they will not go, and Kamala was firmly over that line between competence and utter clownishness.

I really think the base issue is that NC is more Republican than it was before, Mark Robinson's complete collapse in 2024 convinced everyone that NC is still a purple state (statewide-state level races tend to be far less purely partisan and open to character destruction having an effect).
The state has materially moved rightward over the last few years in terms of registrations and registered independents in NC have a long history of leaning hard to the right (not every state is like that).
Competitive senate races tend to drive turnout up statewide in the states that have them, helping them to reflect both overall PVI of the state and getting turnout to presidential election levels.
There is a far more likely chance that the NC senate race more closely reflects the 2024 presidential race, but everyone's acting like it's going to reflect the NC governor race.

I remember a small news item that popped up in early in the Biden junta - they sent Harris to Vietnam and they convinced her to go to a monument they had to John McCain...now this should have triggered anyone's skepticism...remember we were at war and McCain was an American airman.
So she went and gave a word salad speech in front of the statue which was in honor of Vietnam shooting down McCain and capturing him. America was embarrassed in a really stupid manner.

Mebbe, Mebbe not. No one knows for sure because while history has a lot of examples, whether a particular example applies to our future comes down to educated or not so educated guessing.
Vernor Vinge, sci fi writer, called it a singularity, a point at which everything after is different. He applied it to technology but the concept is broader than that.
The A-Bombs exploding as a denouement to WWII was such a time. The American and French Revolutions plus Napoleon was another.
I think the next singularity will the implosion of post war liberalism and its belief that the whole world is a bunch of human widgets that believe and act the same way.

Among the Demunists, there was and perhaps still is an internal power struggle between the Stalinst Faction (Hillary, Biden, Commielah) and the Trotskyite Faction (Bernie Sanders).
In 2016, Trotskyite Sanders was cheated out of a few state Demunist primaries that were rightfully his to win.
Now in a fair fight, I expect that Hillary Clinton would still have won the Demunist nomination. But she and the Demunist Party Politburo Appartatus could not even have *that*.

I live in Wisconsin, and in my experience, state assembly elections receive almost publicity, and have very light turnout - a perfect target for a radical to slip in. That being said, she represents Madison, aka "Mad City", the state capitol and location of the University of Wisconsin. Those people would vote for Mao or Stalin if they could. In Madison politics, Hong is a moderate.

Many years ago, I did data analysis for a multi-institutional study of suicide. The results were clear: women attempted suicide far more often than men did, but men committed suicide far more often than women did. In fact, sex was one of the principal factors in determining risk of committing suicide. (The highest risk factor was abuse of drugs and alcohol - no surprises there.)
Posted by: Nemo at August 11, 2026 03:52 PM (4RPgu)
I've seen the PAC ads against Hong, and next to nothing from her campaign. Several of the Democratic candidates have been running ads of their own, with some PAC support. One of the Democrat candidates, David Crowley, claims that Hong is being pushed by Republicans because they think she's beatable in the general Election, and that he's the only one who stand the chance of beating the likely Republican candidate
The Republican front runner, Tom Tiffany, has been largely ignoring the Democrats, focusing on his issues. I expect his campaign to ramp up its attacks on his opponent after the primary.
I see little to no evidence to suggest anyone but Hong will be that opponent. The DSA seems to have a lot of influence in the Democratic Party, but I wonder if they have enough voter support to take over. Evidence of how much or how little support they actually have is coming in November.

The Morning Rant: The Terrorists Have Won (At Least In The UK)
Islam controls the narrative in many places in the West. Yes, it is probably most powerful in the UK, but France and Belgium and the Netherlands and Germany and Canada and Spain and perhaps others are also on the road to sharia law and the complete destruction of free speech. "Free Speech" is of necessity and by definition offensive, challenging, disturbing, and subverts the dominant paradigm. Otherwise it is just talk, without substance and without any meaning or import. The West needs to push back forcefully against any challenge to our free speech rights. Anything less than a full-throated defense of our God-given, natural right to speak as we see fit will result in the loss of more than just free speech!Best clip from the Oxford Union in a long time. A speaker suggests that he is about to display a cartoon of Muhammad to prove that Islam has a problem with free speech.

Nigel Farage did not say that Islam is the future of Britain.
Farage's Actual Stance on Islam and British Culture
Critical Commentary: Farage has a long history of making cautionary or critical remarks about the integration of some Muslims, claiming that a growing number do not share British values.
Opposition to Sectarianism: He has publicly warned against what he describes as rising religious sectarianism and political Islam, rather than endorsing the religion.
Prior Statements: When questioned about the religion itself, he has stated that outlawing Islam is not a workable solution ("the West will lose"), but his political platform focuses heavily on restricting mass migration and challenging public religious observances

Another thing is Article 5 of the NATO pact. The only time it has it been used: post September 11th, 2001 due to internal terrorists attacks. What this means is that each member nation is required to act as if an attack on one NATO member is equivalent to an attack on all. There is obvious flexibility on what a country's response might look like.
Can Article 5 be a legal trigger within the US to respond to UK falling to Islam and becoming a caliphate and the total destruction of the UK citizen's rights (such as they are as a subject rather than citizen) for the US to take dramatic action and treat as The Enemy Islam within the US?

They’ve appointed Farah Ahmed as Assistant Professor of Education — a woman who called Western education a “threat” to Muslims, democracy a “corrupt tradition,” and literacy plus qualifications un-Islamic. She attacked English literature as damaging, condemned treating Islam as just one religion among others, and criticised schools for teaching that child marriage is wrong.😑

The Delaware County Council unanimously appointed 12 local individuals to serve three-year terms on the county's newly established Human Relations Commission, which acts as the county's official anti-discrimination and civil rights enforcement agency. It explicitly covers discrimination based on race, color, religious creed, ancestry, age, sex, national origin, handicap or disability, use of guide or support animals, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression.
They are tasked with handling inquiries and mediating discrimination complaints regarding Housing, Employment, Public accommodations, and Healthcare.
The immediate focus for the inaugural members is completing specialized state and legal training before the county communications team officially opens up the public portal to accept civil rights and discrimination inquiries.
The commission is structured to resolve disputes locally, aiming to settle issues through mediation before escalating to formal legal hearings or penalties. (Process: complaint filing; jurisdictional review; mandatory mediation; finding & enforcement)

Every player has to be tested. Even the ones nobody ever asked about.
Since 21 July, a ranking and an accepted entry are no longer enough to play a WTA tournament. Every player has to take a genetic test first. A cheek swab, saliva or blood sample is screened for the SRY gene, which sits on the Y chromosome and triggers male sex development before birth.
A negative result clears a player for the rest of her career. A positive one removes her from competition while a medical review runs. Refusing the test can bring disciplinary action.
The rule applies to everyone, including players nobody has ever questioned. There are no known transgender women in professional tennis at any level. The last one competed between 1977 and 1981.
Doctors and human rights groups argue that one gene cannot capture how sex development actually works, and that the people most likely to be caught by it are intersex athletes who may not know their own status.

Southeast Pennsylvania is home to a diverse, historic, and growing Muslim population. Centered heavily around Philadelphia and its surrounding counties (like Delaware, Montgomery, Bucks, and Chester), the community includes African American Muslims, South Asian, Middle Eastern, North/East African, and Southeast Asian immigrants, alongside active local organizations and advocacy groups like CAIR Philadelphia.

I think the real reason is twofold.
One, zoning and development approval is -- and always has been -- hopelessly corrupt. Any time a big development wants to get built, the developers and their subcontractor remoras start greasing palms, both legally and illegally. I guarantee if you dig deep enough, you'll find that all 7 of these guys were bought.
Two: the US constitution and federal laws forbid discrimination on the basis of religion. You can't deny approval to build a mosque because it's Muslim. If the council voted down this proposal, they'd all be sued.
Sadly, these laws were put in place long before we understood how dangerous and barbaric Islam is. It's not a religion. It's a bloody fascist cult -- basically the cannibal Thugee fanatics from Temple of Doom.

There's a similarly sized group who hate it with a passion, and constitute most if the ruling class, and its hangers-on.
There's a much larger group who sympathize with group 1 up to a point, but always side with group 2 from fear of it, making them an effective subgroup of group 2.
IOW, free speech still exists in the West - again, at least to some degree - but to call it some kind of characteristic of Western countries is a gross exaggeration.
It threatens the status quo in these societies and acts as a destabilizing force to their broad masses, and is either hated, resented, or studiously ignored by most of them.
Do not ever make the mistake of believing freedom of conscience and expression are Western values. A barely restrained intolerance of them is a Western value.

I assume all these big-time donation machines are a bit of both (and paying out to consultants that are your uncles and cousins and companies you own, etc).
I was describing the bare-bones scam model that predominates the low end. Just one dude literally scamming gullible seniors, AWFuLs with more money than brains, etc.
Paying yourself a 99% salary also works, but that's more complicated. And states (and the feds) rarely police charities. But they do police income taxes and/or 1099s, as well as required workers' comp, insurance, etc.

We went there a lot. Big family.
Only rich people had AC back then, so it was a nice way to get of the house on a hot summer night
This was before the fam moved to Alaska. There were a few attempts at drive-ins here, but it was too light at night in the summer and too cold in the winter. At least one had space heaters on the poles next to the speakers that you could bring into your car.

Reginald Marsh
Nice article, Whitney Museum of American Art, Reginald Marsh, Recto: Twenty Cent Movie, Verso: (Study for figures) 1936
They - theaters such as the Lyric - held some great, old traditions that extended some decades past the 1930's. (There were long term relationships came from those movie meetups that, after mid-century, often featured some of the worst horror movies, too, and then the audiences added commentary on top of that. (A really bad movie, you could laughing through the entire show.) Now, Runway and streaming.
Aside: Didn't we have another painting, different artist, that had the Lyric Theater of NYC in its background?

I learned long ago due to the workload of churning out publish or perish that you basically had to act like a potter. You throw a glop on the wheel with some idea about what to write and then spend the rest of the time shaping the glop into something useful. Otherwise, you can get writer's block. I grew up in the age of typewriters where it was a literal pita to correct and you were painfully worried about a typo, not only because of the pita it was to correct, but writing was viewed more as thou shalt not....."
Nowadays, I just put it down--redraft as needed--usually the second or third draft. And I don't sweat the clunky writing style nor grammar mistakes on the first draft anymore.
For formal submissions, you clean it up, otherwise, I simply don't worry about it anymore. In a lot of cases, on computer drafting, I am often rewrite to clarify as I go here which means sometimes verb tense, plural mentions, punctuation, etc. go by the wayside. Because it is as much to clarify in my head my own arguments by writing them down as it is for others. And sometimes what I put out mystifies even me.

USDA recalled 12,036 pounds of Canadian bacon that entered U.S. stores without required federal inspection, affecting Royale Natural and TOP VALU products in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington.
The bacon bypassed mandatory import reinspection, prompting the USDA’s most serious recall classification, though no pathogens were found and no illnesses were reported.
Packages with September 2026 sell-by dates bearing “EST. 1” should be thrown away or returned. Consumers with questions can call the USDA hotline at 888-674-6854

Lots of those podcast movie "reaction" videos, cut/pasted short clips together with some dot Indian guy at the end doing a short 20 second outtro while holding a tiny little microphone up to his mouth. That's relatively honest.
On the other hand, you have AI thieves who take the whole video, change the voice and then cut/paste some random guy into the vid duplicating the content, word for word. Happens a lot in guitar instruction vids (Rhett Shull was recently bitching about the latest one, where they didn't bother to even change the background from his basement studio, while also stealing his content)

I haven't seen those, I've just seen literal copy-pastes, frequently onto platforms the creator isn't using (TikTok, Facebook, Instagram).

USDA recalled 12,036 pounds of Canadian bacon that entered U.S. stores without required federal inspection, affecting Royale Natural and TOP VALU products in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington.
The bacon bypassed mandatory import reinspection, prompting the USDA’s most serious recall classification, though no pathogens were found and no illnesses were reported.
Actually, it should all be thrown out for mislabeling Canuckian ham as "bacon". There's nothing "bacon" about that stuff. I mean, it's reasonably tasty ham, but Canadian Bacon tries to fool you with the name. The only thing they have in common is that they come from the same animal.

I like 40's music like that. Unfortunately the big band went away due to post war economics--it made bands smaller because they could no longer make money sufficient for bigger ones.
Now we are down to cRAP with one dude muttering over techno and backing tracks. AI is pushing even the dude singing out of the picture after it limped along at first with autotuning and then wholesale pitch correcting on the fly in live concerts.

Pitch correction has nothing to do with AI. It's actually derived from math the oil companies came up with to find good places for fracking.
