The Classical Saturday Morning Coffee Break & Prayer Revival

[I rate the preceding 100% accurate.]

*****

Good morning boys and girls and everything in between. Before we enter the Prayer Revival just a few housekeeping matters to go over. (Rulz for those of you in Sauk City)
1) This is an open thread, feel free to lurk, opine and/or bloviate. Never hurts to pray either.
2) Be kind. Be nice. Unless you're feeling lucky......
3) No. Running with sharp objects is not allowed.
4) Besides not being able to run with sharp objects have a Great Weekend!

AoSHQ Weekly Prayer List
Please submit any prayer requests to me, “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo at-sign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update.
Prayer Requests:
5/23 – I used to have a Different Nic could use some prayers as he waits for the results of a biopsy of a mass on his prostate.
6/23 Update – The latest update is that he has stage 2, “unfavorable intermediate”, which he notes is an awful name, but what it means is, it is in the middle, but bad enough that they want to treat it. It’s more aggressive than previously thought. He is at the point where he has to decide on treatment options, which means choosing which set of pretty unfortunate side effects he prefers.
8/20 Update – He has finished his radiation treatment, so all he has left are blood tests and waiting. Thanks for everything.
7/25 – Teresa in Fort Worth posted an update. She is still doing fine. Her chemo pump seems to be working and everything appears stable for now. She says she is incredibly blessed! She is working on a stocking for an as-yet-not-born grandchild. She would appreciate prayers for a successful IVF procedure and pregnancy for her daughter and hubby. Next week, Teresa and her husband will be going to California to visit their daughter who lives there and her family.
8/4 Update – Teresa was admitted to the hospital while on vacation in California. She has a bad infection – cellulitis - not due to the cancer. She is being treated with antibiotics and hopefully it will be cleared up in a couple of days.
8/28 Update – Teresa’s bloodwork is back, and everything looks steady. She has a CT scan on 9/4.
7/29 – Notsothoreau asked for prayers for Billy Ray’s mother, who was just admitted to the hospital with pneumonia. She is a cancer survivor and chemo destroyed her immune system, so this is a big worry.
8/2 Update – Billy Ray’s mother is feeling better, on oxygen and medication. She is not out of the woods, but has stabilized. She appreciates the prayers from around the globe and says thank you very much.
8/16 Update – Billy Ray’s mother is at home, recovering, and down to just needing a little oxygen at night. One of the doctors told her that he didn’t think she was going to make it. Prayer works.
7/29 – TecumsehTea wrote that MrTea’s diagnosis is colon cancer stage 4. They are praying for guidance for how to proceed.
9/4 Update – MrTea has finished his 10 days of radiation. He feels pretty good. He is still taking fenben and ivermectin. He is still shedding pieces of the tumor, which is a good sign. In 2 weeks they will meet with the oncologist again, and hopefully the dna and blood tests will be done and the doctor will have a plan. Many thanks for the prayers.
7/30 – David sent an update on his wife, Susan, who we have been praying for as she is treated for cancer. Susan is still doing well and her numbers are headed in the right direction, but they are still having issues with the side effects of the chemotherapy. It is manageable, but they have to increase the number of office visits for additional treatments. Some days are really good right now, but others are only bearable with the Lord’s grace. They are so grateful for the prayers on their behalf.
8/26 Update – Susan’s cough has gotten so bad that they did X-rays on her chest. It might be pneumonia. She is in the hospital. Her sodium and blood pressure are low and she is not eating much now. They are trying to turn this around and ask for everyone’s prayers.
9/2 Update – Susan is back in the ICU. She either has an infection or the cancer has spread to her lungs. Either way, thank you all for your thoughts and prayers for Susan and please continue them.
9/3 Update – Thank you to everyone for their thoughts and prayers for Susan. They are expecting her to pass into the hands of the Lord in the next day or so. Please pray for them.
8/8 – Ace-Endorsed Author A. H. Lloyd posted that Mrs. Lloyd will undergo a double mastectomy to remove the breast cancer. She has advanced to Stage 1. Much hinges on the biopsy to determine the specific sub-category of cancer and whether chemo is necessary. Please pray for her in this time of need.
8/22 Update – Mrs. Lloyd is healing ahead of schedule and the surgeon was amazed at her progress. She is still in pain and has limited mobility, but each day she is gaining more freedom of movement. That is the good news; the bad news was the unrealistic expectations set by the medical staff. The surgery was much more significant, and she will also need chemo, contrary to what she was told before.
8/14 – RandomDave asked for renewed prayers for his job situation. He just found out that the position he was close to getting went to someone else, and doesn’t know where to turn. He hates to ask, but is getting desperate. He has a GiveSendGo set up; please contact Annie’s Stew for more info. Thanks to those who have already given and thank you for the prayers. They are keeping him from giving up.
8/15 – Donna V contacted Mis. Hum. to let the Horde know the following: “Please let the horde know I am doing fine in hospice”. She would appreciate your prayers.
8/15 – Buck requested prayers for his wife. She is diabetic, and had a bad day on 8/14, with weakness, vomiting, irregular pulse, high blood pressure. She has had sepsis 3 times. They went to ER, but they only gave her meds for nausea, and now she’s back home. Pray that she recovers quickly. Thanks to all.
8/15 – Intruder Driver asked for prayers for Tonya, who was burned over 90% of her body in a gas explosion in Cabo San Lucas. She is now in a hospital in Mexico City. She has a long road to recovery, if she survives.
8/22 Update – Tonya did not survive her burns. Prayers for her and her husband Rusty, who were/are active members of their local church in Mexico.
8/27 – P asks for prayers for the soul of her nephew, C, who committed suicide on 8/17. He was only 32. May he find the peace in the afterlife that he could not find in this life.
8/26 – Teresa in Fort Worth asks for prayers for her BIL, Dick, who was found dead in the alley behind the house in Texas. He had been in declining health and had dementia. They aren’t sure how long he was outside before he passed away. Teresa’s SIL seems to be handling it okay so far. Teresa also asks for prayers for a former neighbor, Melissa, who is hospitalized, recovering from a second stem cell/bone marrow transplant as they attempt to cure her leukemia. She now has blood blisters in her mouth and throat. She had to be intubated before her throat closed completely. This might be her body rejecting the transplant.
8/27 – “…” asked for prayers for healing (and sleep) for Brit Lass. She is having tests, and so far they are good, but she is worried. She has an imaging test coming up and then an appointment with a surgeon.
8/30 – SPinRH_F-16 requested prayers for classmate “D.B.”, who has ALS. Please pray that he remains as comfortable as possible and for support for his family as they see him through this. Thank you in advance for your earnest prayers.
9/2 – Bulg asked for prayers for purpose in his life.
9/4 – bluebell sent an update on grammie winger. Grammie was diagnosed with epilepsy now. And she is back in the hospital. They would love prayers for comfort and peace for her.
9/10 – Annie’s Stew asks for prayers for her husband as he recovers from knee surgery.
9/10 – D asked for prayers for the memory of 9/11. May the Lord comfort people in the grief, and may it bring people closer to God.
For submission guidelines and other relevant info, please contact Annie's Stew, who is managing the prayer list. You can contact her at apaslo at-sign hotmail dot com. If you see a prayer request posted in a thread comment, feel free to copy and paste it and e-mail it to Annie's Stew. She tries to keep up with the requests in the threads, but she's not here all of the time, so she may not see it unless you e-mail it to her. Please note: Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks or so unless we receive an update.
2 Corinthians 4:8-9
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair, persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.

I want to hear only a rational, resolute and militant conversation about how to completely uproot Islam from our society.

According to Grok those accounts are @_NathanCalvin (General Counsel at Encode AI), @peterwildeford (Head of Policy at the AI Policy Network), and @DKokotajlo (Head of the AI Futures Project), all of which are up-and-coming AI-Doomer policy advocacy nonprofits.

14 I've been reading on epilepsy and surprised to find how prevalent adult onset is, about half of all cases.

I had always thought it was mostly congenital or developmental. But a lot of conditions can cause epilepsy as a secondary effect.

18 I want to hear only a rational, resolute and militant conversation about how to completely uproot Islam from our society.

All I see and hear are statements that metastasizing Islam is a cancer that America needs and should encourage.

I guess if the population also finds it acceptable that women can engage in mass murder on bad mood days, and that ensuring that the next generation has been sterilized or otherwise too stupid and lazy to care for its own survival, then exorcising the demons of Islam is an Ask too large.

That should be the response to any retard that is whining about fuel prices and believes the remedy is elect Marxists.

California is a one party Communist "Utopia".

No mention that Climate Change, Inc. has closed off millions of acres of hydrocarbon producing federal land and offshore; no mention that Europe has destroyed its own ability to fuel itself; no mention that only the US seems interested in keeping the SoH open; the whiners can't even seem to grasp that daily destruction of refineries in Ukraine and Russia might have an effect on a fungible resources; that the Keystone XL pipeline wasn't a mere vanity project but had a purpose; blowing up Nord Stream pipelines doesn't help availability; and exporting 28% and more of US diesel puts a crimp on US stockpiles and prices.

It's within a few blocks of the river, but no boat ramps that I know of. I do see people hauling boats around here all the time. The Walmart (Murphy Oil) gas pumps nearby have it too, but for $4.39 or more.

The Exxon-branded place near my house still has the stuff at $3.69 and has for months, even when regular went down and now back up. It's *cheaper* there than the regular E10. The last time I used it my gas mileage was little better than it is on E10. I suspect that "E0" is old gas, or laced with ethanol and being labeled fraudulently as E0. In April a chain in Kansas was doing that but not labeling the premium as E10-E15.

39 Hello, Horde! 😊💕

Doing well here - CT scan came back fine; there is a small spot on one of my lungs, but no idea if it is cancer related or not. Since it is the only one, they will be zapping it with radiation in the next month or so.

There is a possibility that the surgeon may want to attempt liver resection again - he told me I am one of his "rock star" patients, in that I am doing so well on treatment. I know that I am extremely fortunate. And apparently I am very hard to kill.... 😂😂😂

Thanks for the continued prayers! I may be absent a lot from commenting over the next few months, as we are getting ready to undertake a kitchen remodel. We have never "hired out" any projects before, so this will be interesting!

44 Wolfus, are you familiar with actor/playwright William Gillette? He was a stage actor, a very big star, mostly before movies were a thing. Portrayed Sherlock Holmes in many productions, coming up with the deerstalker hat and other things associated with Holmes. Met ACD and they became friends to the end of their lives. Wish there was film of him in the role.

54 A fan carrying a Palestinian flag ran onto the field at Yankee Stadium at 9:11 p.m. on Friday, the 25th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks, before being tackled and detained by security, The Athletic reported.

The fan entered from the left-field seats and ran toward center field, briefly evading police officers and stadium security personnel before he was brought down on the outfield grass.

After officials escorted him beyond the center-field wall, spectators seated above the New York Mets bullpen threw beer cans in his direction and booed as he was removed from the stadium. Chants of “USA” then broke out among the crowd.

56 Vandals defaced several American flags at a California college’s 9/11 memorial, scrawling antifa and pro-Palestinian messages at the solemn tribute to the nearly 3,000 killed in the terror attacks.

The memorial at California State University Stanislaus featured 2,977 American flags — one for each victim killed on Sept. 11, 2001 — as part of Young America’s Foundation’s annual “9/11: Never Forget Project.”

But several of the flags were spotted covered in protest slogans, including “Free Palestine,” “Blowback” and “161.”

Posted by: Ordinary American at September 12, 2026 07:46 AM (7s9Qe)

The acceptance of Islam in our society is just one of the effects of zombie leftism.
Focus on stamping out all the zombie leftists we have, and the rest will take care of itself.

59 I would like to ask prayer for the W. family for comfort and strength, and for me as I officiate at a funeral service this morning. The woman had been part of our church as a youngster until she moved away, but would come back to look after her parents when they were older and to visit her brother who was a Korean War vet and the patriarch of the church . She was 92 and a sweet woman despite some big tragedies in her life. Now all the people in their 90's who were part of the church have gone to be with the Lord.

Thanks very much.

64 Sayyid Ibrahim Husayn Shadhili Qutb was an Egyptian political theorist and revolutionary who was a leading member of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The intellectual father of radical Islam and AQ was inspired by what he considered the grotesque green lawns, attractive women, and “tapping feet, enticing legs, arms wrapped around waists” of the scandalous sock hops of Greeley, CO in 1949.

From 1948 to 1950, he went to the United States on a scholarship to study its educational system, spending several months at Colorado State College of Education (now the University of Northern Colorado) in Greeley, Colorado.

65 Our property in WV is steeped in early American history. Lots of familiar names; Washington in particular but also a lot of Civil War names creep up here and there. The small river our cabin is near is named for Robert E. Lee.

And there's plenty of Indian (native American) names of various places too.

Interestingly, there is no "Obama Street" anywhere nearby. Robert Byrd, however...

77 In 1980, a silly fan ran onto the field at Shea Stadium during a game and eluded the overweight security guards, taunting them as he ran about. Met's catcher John Stearns was behind home plate and quickly got tired of watching this. He threw down his mask and glove and took off in a beeline toward the miscreant yute. Stearns nailed him with an open field tackle and held him down until the uniformed officers arrived to escort him off the field. John had been a defensive back at the University of Colorado.

How would a DSA/Communist/Socialist answer the question:

"In the context you are using it, what is the definition of 'steal'"

Stealing implies ownership, an anathema to the Left.
What I believe the morality the Left has adopted is:

"I take from You ≡ Good"
"You take from Me ≡ Bad"

Which is how humanity has behaved since expulsion from The Garden

140 Cancer treatments today are much better than when my wife started hers 18 years ago. That she lasted 16 years was a miracle; my youngest had turned 17 just two days before she passed, so she came close to her goal of not passing before the kids were grown up.

My mother-in-law died of cancer when she was 62 and the variety she had was one of the really tough ones no one lives through.

The oncology nurse said that it seems every month there's another breakthrough in identifying a type and developing a treatment and the kind my wife has is one of the ones where they have powerful drugs to target it. She only has 12 doses of chemo ahead of her (1 per week) and then it will be just the drug therapy which is pretty mild.

And of course if she can't tolerate it, they will stop, but the nurse seemed pretty confident because they rarely have to. It's quite the journey.

141 I've heard Adam Carolla note that no country without an auto industry is a real country. It's a good point.

That got me thinking about Israel, and whether it counts one way or another.

Israel has no mass-market car. From the 60s-80s , they gave it a feeble attempt, with cars like the Sussita and the Tzabra. To give them their due, these were better than the best Warsaw Pact mass market rides like the Trabant or Wartburg. But they were still horrid crap based on horrid British Reliant designs, and horrid, slovenly British manufacturing techniques. So, still socialist garbage that I would compare to the Serb Zastava cars in terms of quality.

That said, they build some of the world's finer armor, from trucks and troop-transports, to main battle tanks. Some of these are built by private companies, and some by the MoD, but i think it counts for something. They're of the best quality, and fearsome.

147 Speaking of prayer, yesterday I was not in a good mood. My former co-workers, with whom I keep in touch, got a text chat going yesterday morning where we recalled the events of 25 years ago.

We had a TV in the conference room, and I'd heard about the first impact on the way to the office, and we were all standing around watching the footage when the second aircraft hit. I have to admit that my recollection is a bit hazy, but people recalled that I immediately said: "That's an act of war."

I then waked into the boss' office and said: "Turn on your TV. We're at war."

I didn't have much to add, other than to note than a few months later, I brought my newborn daughter into the office for a meet-and-greet (we were like that). We had no idea then that she would go on to earn a campaign ribbon for a war that started before she was born.

I hear Michigan fans say that, but in my experience, the Spartan Nation is all about the Scarlet and Gray in November.

When I was at MSU, Ohio State brought its band up for the game (which was not all that common in those days, I think we did one away game other than South Bend and Ann Arbor), and we immediately hit it off.

We actually traded merch catalogs (no internet, you needed the paper forms) and that is how I have two Ohio State Marching Band t-shirts, included the coveted Friday Gray, which they made a big deal out of letting us wear.

Of course other bands would swap shirts as well, and I have an Indiana one and Purdue one that was sadly lost.

It's zombie Soviet agitprop, and I think the tide has turned on it's persistence. In the next decade, a ton of schools will be closing due to the baby bust, and that's going to crush the influence of teacher unions.

There's also huge growth in non-public education because it sucks, and childless people are not going to be willing to pay high taxes for other peoples' kids.

Higher ed will also be decimated. This is the long awaited turning of the tide, and it cannot be stopped.

Wish there was film of him in the role.

Yes, I have heard of him. He was the one who established the large calabash pipe as a feature of the character. The straight or bent briar pipe that Sidney Paget showed in the famous The Strand illustrations was too small, Gillette thought, to work well on stage. So he adopted the big "calabash." You saw the style used by Cmdr. Data when he did Holmes on the holodeck in TNG.

On the other hand, we have a false and stereotypical view of what Native American societies were like in the pre-columbian era. They were not the Sioux or the Cherokee riding across the plains - no horses. From the eastern half of Texas over to Georgia and stretching up the Mississippi drainage area up to Illinois, there was an extensive mound building culture of thousands of small farming villages with a mostly dispersed population - whatever the land could carry.

LIDAR around here turns up new mounds every day now, and each mound was most likely a village center. Some contain burials, but most appear to have been platforms for some central structure. And while there were not many large cities, there were a few that are now forgotten. Etowah in NW Georgia was a large, well defended city with palisade walls and a population between 15,000 and 25,000 in the 1400’s.

All of this was wiped out by smallpox epidemics.

I was in a recruiting office a week after the attack. It took time to untangle my paperwork from my Short Unsuccessful Army Career, and then I wanted to wait until the baby was born and things settled down at home, so I reenlisted in August, 2002, this time in the Air National Guard. I intended to do just one enlistment which I figured would be "the duration." Yeah.

As time wore on and the years piled up, getting a retirement seemed like a good idea, and those of us of a certain age jokingly said our contract was for "the duration." It kind of was, because after the Afghanistan debacle, a bunch of us got out. Those couldn't right away set a timer, and of course Covid also pushed people out. I retired on Dec. 31, 2022.

And as I predicted months ago, the left could not just pretend to be patriotic to win the election. They had to go full jihadi loving retard, and they're going to lose the normies completely.

We've all seen the polls that only a quarter of Dems are proud to be American. Guess who those people are going to vote for (assuming they vote at all)?

I believe that maybe some of those on the Left are starting to understand that if we import millions or muslims, particularly given their religion and culture,

a lot of our customs and cozy assumptions and Judeo-Christian culture simply have to go out the window.

We are in a new Cold War brought on by poor, feckless leadership at the top[ especially. by GWB and worse going forward until Trump.

Is a culture that celebrates a mother who cruelly murders her three children worth saving from islam? Probably not.

201 The tragedy of the Native American populations was an unavoidable disaster that was going to happen whenever the Old World finally made full contact with the new. The large populations in SE Asia, and China, and India, and Africa had been continuously generating new diseases for thousands of years, and these would work their way throughout the bulk of the old world. Many would die, but the survivors and their descendants would mostly be immune. The Black Death was a particularly sharp die off, but even it burned itself out without destroying everything.

What no one knew was that many of these pathogens for both diseases we knew and those we had forgotten were incorporated into our biological structure so that we were carriers of many things without knowing it. When Old World man entered the New World, 10,000 years of plagues and diseases were dumped on the New World at once; no wonder 90% of the existing population died by 1600.

What our ancestors saw as “normal” Indian culture was the crazed remains of one of the most apocalyptic die-offs in history. It wasn’t anyone’s fault; it was always going to happen no matter what.

Newark was a real hot spot with large department stores, the Paramount theater where many stars appeared, including Frank Sinatra. It began going downhill in the late 50's when many, including my wife's parents, moved further south to locations where large housing developments were being constructed. The construction of the Garden State Parkway facilitied that movement. They could live 15 or 20 miles south of Newark, Irvington, Kearney, etc, but still keep their jobs in those cities, including Western Electric where most Bell Telephone equipment was manufactured. Sadly, cities, as does nature, abhor a vacuum. Guess who filled that vacuum? Many blacks from the South moved north and settled in the cities. It was always amusing to hear them speak with a southern accent even though they're from Newark and are three generations removed.

Top Story

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman-Fried says the company is open to slowing AI development. (Reuters)

Or going bankrupt. One or the other. Maybe both.
Meanwhile it is reported that internal OpenAI agents were used to launch an attack against the RubyGems package ecosystem. (Rubyhack)

The packages - software modules - themselves were malicious, and the efforts to upload them to RubyGems were malicious. The attribution to OpenAI itself as opposed to OpenAI's users is unproven, but the pattern looks similar to the attack on a German wiki site that has been admitted by the company.

Get your shit together, Sam.

Tech News

You can get a modified RTX 5090 with 96GB of RAM for the price of a regular 5090. (Tom's Harware)

Basically giving you the equivalent of an RTX Pro 6000 for a quarter the price Nvidia charges.
Mad King Matt Mullenweg of WordPress company Automattic may no longer be CEO but he is madder than ever. (Tech Crunch)

What a dipshit.
The UK government has rejected "kill switches" for AI on the grounds that it's a stupid idea that won't work. (BBC)

Has the UK government ever met the UK government?
A design space exploration of async-await. (Brown)

It points out that the design space in question is a nine-dimension hypercube in which JavaScript of all languages is the one that got it right. Yes, there are tradeoffs that led other languages to decide differently, but those decisions are dumb.
Which is of interest to me because I've spent the morning on async-await in my own programming language. Well, that and adding wildcard indexes to my database and doing an end run around multidatabase ORM design.

It's great when you control the compiler and the runtime and the database libraries and the primary database; you can just make decisions that simplify things everywhere and there's nobody to complain. Well, Claude said my proposal would need rewrites of ten existing client libraries, but that's a bit like the creator of the C makefile format protesting that he couldn't change the format because he already had twelve users.

Also, just found that something I'm planning to do tomorrow was a PhD thesis topic as recently as 2018.
You can turn off that annoying thing Claude does when it hallucinates a harmful phrase and downgrades the model in use. Today it dropped from Opus 5 to the older Opus 4.8 in the middle of implementing a wire protocol to MessagePack translation layer, meaning that I need to recheck everything it's done for the past hour. Just go into /config and it's the third option.

Which to be fair I need to do anyway; time for the weekly adversarial testing round.

Props to the filmmakers for not making Poitier's character into a good guy at the end. His character had grown up with Hudson's on the latter's plantation; they had been playmates and friends. Then the Kikuyu (native) boy begins to realize, and resent, the difference between white and black in the society. He commits a crime -- possibly not his fault; I don't recall -- and flees, only to be caught up in the Mau-Mau terrorism. Reluctant at first, he takes to it (because refusing to take to it is to be murdered) and discovers he's good at terrorism and slaughter. His character is understandable, in a way, but not simply misunderstood. He could have been, in modern terms, "a good boy," but chose not to be.

As I recall it, Miklos, John McKeithen (an old Huey Long crony) promised to take the tolls off if he were elected governor in '64, and was, and did. The new bridge that turned the span into the superhighway it should always have been didn't get started until the late '70s and didn't open until 1988. No tolls on that for the first three months, then a reasonable dollar after that. Though if you got a toll tag on your car and charged it to your credit card, it was like .70.

A few years ago came the big squeal that "The bridge is paid for! Why do we need tolls?" The voters chose to say, "Remove the tolls." So the bridge maintenance is not being paid for, and the ferries, which used to be free for pedestrians, now cost $2 per person *each way*.

76 Svengoolie's movie tonight on MeTV is The Fly -- I presume the 1950s version with David Hedison and Vincent Price. The original story, which appeared in Playboy when it published real fiction, is actually science fiction; it involves matter transmitters, known to us in these post-Trek days as "transporters." There are some big leaps of illogic in the plot though, which also show in the movie, but I guess the author was going for the horror and shock effect.

What kind of workload are you thinking of? In software, particularly large solution for significant architectural tasks, you need very large parameter models, and they do you little good if they are spitting out a few tokens per second.

The cheapest route I've found that doesn't involve Chinese knock-offs (which, sad to say, are going to eventually win the AI wars) is running GPT "Luna" for basic refactors, mappings and validations, "Terra" when wanting better answers to cross module refactors, and "Sol" when desiring solution wide consistency.

Local AI implementation solutions are far too expensive compared to what can be rented. There must be compelling reasons that ignore cost to go on-prem.

By the way, of what tribe was Mingo supposed to be? Daniel Boone the series took place in what we'd call the southeast now, KY and TN, right? So no Apaches or Comanches or Lakotas. Cherokee?

How did the Top 3 Anti AI groups (CCP) find the X post of the Anthropic resignee that had about 3 followers in LESS than 15 minutes.

According to Grok those accounts are @_NathanCalvin (General Counsel at Encode AI), @peterwildeford (Head of Policy at the AI Policy Network), and @DKokotajlo (Head of the AI Futures Project), all of which are up-and-coming AI-Doomer policy advocacy nonprofits.

1 As it turned out, the prediction that a large-scale encounter between the populations of the Western nations and Muslim lands might bring about a meaningful social transformation was correct.

What Western optimists failed to imagine was that their own societies would be reshaped in the image of the newcomers they sought to evangelize.

10 Fun fact I learned today:

One of the issues George Bush ran on in 2000 was subjecting Arabs to less scrutiny in airports.

In an October 11, 2000 debate with Al Gore, George W. Bush demanded less airport security scrutiny of Arab passengers.

Bush got what he wanted.

89 Household voting weighted for households is a BAD BAD BAD idea based on today's demographics.

I can confirm that local Mosques have an unwritten requirement to have at least 5 children. The Male in that family will have a menial job. No one else in that family will work, and the Mosque actually has a full time employee who has the job of keeping track of welfare benefits available to each family.

So, they will have one...maybe 2 eligble voters based on tax contribution....but just barely. And, you want to give them a weighted vote? NOPE.

100 I can confirm that local Mosques have an unwritten requirement to have at least 5 children. The Male in that family will have a menial job. No one else in that family will work, and the Mosque actually has a full time employee who has the job of keeping track of welfare benefits available to each family.

So, they will have one...maybe 2 eligble voters based on tax contribution....but just barely. And, you want to give them a weighted vote? NOPE.

151 Had an almost-nasty wreck in the shop today. I had the two pedestal from a steel desk; you know, the uprights with the drawers in them. I screwed hunks of 2X2 to the front and rear of the bottom of one, and drilled holes, and drove in some spindle-mount casters. Ah! Rolled around like champ. Welded the other pedestal on top, so like a rolling file cabinet. Toted it out to the big shop, and began filling it up. Six starters in the bottom drawer, five in the next, one in the third, plus a bunch of NOS oil filters, next drawer full of NOS oil filters. Began rolling it on the smooth concrete floor to place it against the wall. Crack! the front 2X2 split, and spit out two casters. The cabinet toppled forward, and all the drawers flew open. Nothing spilled at all. But I had to empty all the drawers, remove the split 2X2, and replace it with a 2X4, and I ran screws through it on either side of the holes for the caster spindles, to forestall another splitting event. Refilled it, and rolled it to the wall without a further wreck.

I bought a new recliner to replace my current one, which fits snuggly between two fully loaded book cases. I bought the new one sight unseen, online, picked it up in a big box (some assembly required) and wrestled the box onto my covered patio last week.

This evening I finally opened the box and brought the pieces inside. They looked a little bigger than my current chair. The new chair measures 40" across the back. The distance been the bookcases is 35".

I continue to be gob-smacked by the Schiehallion experiment. That was conducted by Nevil Maskelyne, 5th Astronomer Royal, and mathematician Charles Hutton.

Charles Mason, of Mason-Dixon fame, was also involved in precisely measuring distances that needed to be measured.

Their result for the density of earth, and hence the mass was off by about 20%.

But most of that error was due to factors they couldn't account for -- the higher order gravitational deviations and a more accurate model of the earth mean ellipsoid.

In 2005, a group took the original astronomical and geodetic measurements, but using more accurate precision models of the above. The result was within 1% of the modern accepted value. That's how good their measurements were. In 1774.

Not a new front, just more intensive (and aggressive) use of a proxy. I'm guessing (guessing) that MBS et al have long since concluded that things are beyond repair in the Gulf, and there's no real living with their hated ancestral enemy nutcases in Persia any longer. But such a sentiment will never be publicly uttered until the last IRGC stragglers are being hunted down in Afghanistan and Pakistan by Mossad-contracted bounty hunters.

That angle they measured was around the 1/3 the width of a human hair held at arm's length.

It took over 4 months of raw measurements and field work, and then a few more months after that just to do the computations by hand.

To do it, first they had to measure the volume of the mountain precisely, the determine the center of mass. Then they established a N-S meridian through that center. Some distance on either side, they mounted two zenith sectors. This is very precise telescope that doesn't move one little bit. It points straight up, according to plumb (and getting that plumbed to precision required.....)

And then a few months and thousands of observations of stars passing directly overhead. And the timing had to be precise. They needed to know the exact GMT time the star hit the bullseye.

Now, there is all sorts of human bias in the "mark!" moment. It's not random, each individual will have some systematic error in calling "mark". So, you have many different people do it, and then average it out.

Then you had twinkling and all that to worry with. And mechanical error in some of the apparatus. So, it took a few months with thousands of observations.

Those thousands of observations were enough to average out all those errors. And then you had to hand calculate those thousands of measurement averages.

Those two scopes on each side of the mountain were basically calculating the minute difference in latitude of the two points. But the vertical deflection introduced and error in that. So Charles Mason's job was to precisely measure the true geodetic distance between those two points, dead on the meridian. That then gave you the true difference in latitude. Compare that to the astronomical value, and you get the vertical deflection.

And that is how they weighed the earth in 1774.

Left after seeing several posts mocking Chaie Kirk's murder.

The big controversy on there was AOC and Mamdami allegedly joking and laughing as the names of those murdered on 9/11 were read.
The left claimed it was BS and was livid over Trump allegedly falling asleep during the ceremony.

343 Totally loved the ugly pants swap. My kind of dudes.

Survived the nursing reunion with no Dims or yapping about anything other than memories. Only four of us out of 40, which was a bummer. I am sure some are in heaven and others disappeared. Plus other classes.

One of my apt roommates texted me today she was coming then texted she wasn't. It was from a number I did not recognized & asked who is this. Several numbers and emails & have accused her of being in witness protection. She claims she wants to have lunch with me & another friend who lives here soon.

Two other "girls" lived above me in an historic old house. I went to Kino Bay, Mexico with them one spring break & sometimes was in a fetal position in the back of her porshe for that trip. I'd go anywhere. I asked for photos of that trip (both live in another state). The porshe girl told me that I taught her how to squat to pee in the desert & she remembers a lot.

Both knew my bf/husband & find it hard to believe we are still married after our first year.

It was fun. Other classes in that decade, & I don't remember anyone but those in my class.

I seem to be holding up fairly well as people knew me without my name tag.

Most of all, no uniform for an earthworm "space force".
No "space force" until senior command staff serves in an orbital station. Senior staff expected to retire in free fall, having been so thoroughly adapted that they can't return to Earth. One way ticket.

Earlier this morning I had a great conversation about 9/11 and the history of Islam with the younger four. I was a bit afraid that my wife would object to something---she can have some of that suicidal empathy---but I think we were on the same page about everything. That felt good.

And no COVFEFE on what is putting a bunch in AOC's FREE GAZA hotpants?

Hunter Biden, he has been making headlines recently following the launch of his cryptocurrency token, $LAPTOP, which debuted just ahead of today's date. The memecoin faced massive volatility, shedding over 95% of its value shortly after launch. Hunter Biden promoted the token on social media by posting, "They turned laptop into a weapon. I turned it into a token," framing it as a symbol of resilience, though it quickly drew widespread market crashes and intense media scrutiny similar to other political digital tokens.

386 The memecoin faced massive volatility, shedding over 95% of its value shortly after launch.

Usually, when something declines to 1/20th of its initial "value", you say it's fucking destroyed.

If you're in the Blueski media space, you say it's "experiencing volatility".

Imagine the crowing if SPCX was trading at 1/20th of its IPO today. Instead, it's at a tasty margin above. That's the difference between investing in someone who is ferociously intent on making the future happen, and a corrupt brain-dead politician's useless coked-out afterbirth.

Sir Isaac MF'n Newton was probably the smartest man who has ever lived. Well, at least that we know about. The other greats were well up there in his six-sigma range, but he was probably -- well, there wasn't anybody smarter. Shakespeare was likely in that range as well, but he put his talents to non-physics uses, of which we should be equally grateful.

Newton, at the age of around 25 figured all this out. He didn't publish Principia until about 20 years later. I mean, just think, you trying to figure out "De Motu Corporum in Gyrum", and you realize the math you have is not adequate, so you have to invent the math to do what you want.

Nursing school was a blast & many of us were very close & lost contact from being all over the country, marrying,etc.

I had a wild time but made good grades and somehow lived to be old. Lots of laughter tonight.

Told my former house mates about the first time my dude met my mother. She flew out for our graduation that December.

She stayed in a hotel downtown.

We picked her up for brunch. She met my boyfriend and we were driving on a little tour to see the college where my parent's money went for 2.5yrs.

We turn the corner to the college & in front of a boy's dorm was an anatomically correct & very detailed 10' snow sculpture of an erection.

I caught his eyes in the rearview mirror and had to bite my tongue & he struggled not to lol. It was a time i wanted to roll around laughing hysterically but we kept our cool.

Newton's secretary remarked that during that period when Newton was working all this out, he neglected much his sleep, his eating, and his clothing.... He was a totally obsessed with Figuring It Out.

He derived Kepler's Laws. And deduced the mechanism of precession of the equinoxes and the tides, all due to what we now call the tidal field of the Moon and Sun.

He didn't figure out that tidal friction would secularly slow the earth down and throw the Moon into a higher orbit. He used a perfect fluid type of model to deduce the tidal bulges. He did recognize the Moon was tidally locked, and realized the stability of that, though.

All that was just incredible. Einstein said he stood on the shoulders of giants, remarked that Newton was probably the smartest man who every lived, and said he stood on the shoulders of giants. Newton was the biggest giant he stood on.

Another famous quote of Newton is "Hypotheses non fingo". That was a mic-drop quote as the kids today say. It is translated as "I feign no hypotheses".

Critics argued his gravity was mystic and occult, some strange instantaneous inverse square force at a distance. Spooky action at a distance, as Einstein later called quantum entanglement."

That's a Feynman-like way of putting it. This works, and is verified by observation and experiment. I don't have a clue why it works, and will not even try. But it works. Shut up and calculate.

My dude & I were mortified. They'd maybe known each other 2hrs & dicey.

"Yes, Mama, this is where I've been going to school! Yes, it is the first time I have seen that, too!"

It was also hilarious at the same time I am surprised I was not making snorting noises from the backseat.

After graduation there was a big dance with a band. She was asked to dance by many men but refused, being there alone & looking grand for being 45yrs old.

Meanwhile, I was dancing and broke a heel. It was icy in the parking lot as we left, and my bf slung me over his shoulder to get to his car. I was talking to her from this position like it was a normal thing (yes, there was a lot of booze).

To make her wonder further, a friend of his, and I don't know who invited him, was in the backseat cussing like a sailor before we dropped him off then her.

Because I would say, "Hey, Mama" to talk to her some of my classmates started calling her Hey Mama and she took that in good humor.

She never asked what on earth went on during those years because I think she was afraid to find out.

And it did Einstein to resolve that "spooky action at a distance" question. And it took much more math to be invented/discovered in the meantime. Gauss and Riemann were the big giants he stood on for that.

But gravity does indeed propagate at the speed of light. It just does a much better job of hiding that propagation delay the electromagnetic forces do.

421 I finally looked up how the Greeks calculated the circumference of the Earth. I've always meant to read the details. The Christian school we've sent the two oldest too taught that at the beginning of 9th grade physics. Apparently it was Eratosthenes who worked it out. At Syene at noon on the summer solstice, a stick cast no shadow, and you could even look down a well and see no shadow. But in Alexandria a stick's shadow was 7 degrees (about 1/50 of a circle). He hired professional pacers (what a job!) to measure the distance between the cities: 5,000 stadia. So that is 1/50 of a great circle through the two cities, and the circumference is 50 * 5,000. Amazing! I might need to draw a picture in the morning to really grok the shadow part.

Omnibus Cafe

A horse-drawn bus from the 1890s

There is no way a horse drew this.
its a photograph.

When I read Sherlock Holmes or history books (usually Jack the Ripper books), they refer to this kind of bus, usually calling it an "omnibus." "Omnibus" meaning in Latin, the internet tells me, "for all," in other words public, not private. The word "bus" is just a clipped version of that.

The term originated in Paris, where it began as "voiture omnibus," or "carriage for all" or "public carriage." They lopped off the "voiture." In London, the term was quickly shorted to the modern word "bus," by the 1830s.

But I swear I see "omnibus" when I read a history or period book in the 1890s.

I couldn't visualize what this "omnibus" looked like. I couldn't figure out if it was short-ish like a Wild West coach or long-ish like a modern bus. So, of course, it's short-ish like a Wild West coach. Duh.

Here's one from 1895, packed top to bottom with advertising.

More details here, including "buses" packed with people and absolutely jammed with luggage.

German shepherd protects his cat buddy.

Cat sneak-attacks the German shepherd.

Dog is perfectly hidden.

Saving a cat who got stuck in the middle of a highway.

Giant ears like a fuzzy bat.

Kitten practices his pouncing.

If you ever feel like you're being watched, it's probably goats.
People keep brining their dogs to weddings for some reason.

Puppy's first howl.

Pupper's keeping his head on a swivel.

Happy puppy puts on a show for air travelers stuck in delays.

8 'Bus' may have been used in the 1830s, but 'omnibus' lasted several decades longer. On the other paw, 'busman's holiday' is late 19th Century, so clearly around by then.

In a shocking development, the leading sponsor of terror in the world that is currently in a death rattle after having their shit completely pushed in in their home country by trying to bomb international trade in the strait bordering their shit hole country and are searching for some way to inflict pain on their enemy sent some of their precious remaining resources to a partner terrorist organization that tried to fuck up international trade by bombing the narrow strait next to their shit hole country all during the Biden administration.

Our tile guy had an issue with something of the sort, and it was night and day the difference.

163 >>I think if I'm ever called for jury duty again I will tell the judge that I can not promise to render a fair verdict because I'm afraid of my fellow jurors. Judges didn't necessarily create this problem but they have to be the ones to fix it by cracking down hard on people like Clancy's lawyer and jury foreman.

I've told this before but my favorite jury experience was on a federal trial in Providence. For the voir dire one guy showed up looking like he came off a 3 day bender dressed in a wife beater, camo shorts and Doc Martins. Don't remember his first name but his last name was Cash.

Right out of the gate during his questioning he was belligerent said he hated cops because they raided his apartment when he was having a party looking for drugs. Said he named his daughter Stolen and his son Cold, Stolen and Cold Cash. And it went downhill from there.

I have no idea if anything he said was true but he had all of us waiting to be questioned laughing our asses off. He got dismissed in a heartbeat. He was either one twisted dude or an evil genius.

My mind is blown by the Schiehallion experiment, done in Scotland in 1774. This was how they "weighed the Erf". The precision which they achieved 252 years ago was amazing. Amazing what those hated Dead White Men of Western persuasion could do.

To weigh the earth, they needed to measure the tiny vertical deflection of a plumb bob due the mass of a lone mountain, Mt. Scheihallion. Doing this is not easy. You need to know the true normal to the surface, not just what a plumb bob tells you. You're trying to measure the error in the plumb bob from this true normal.

ANd, in 1774, mind you, they had to know the earth was an oblate ellipsoid, not a true sphere.

And, as a side effect, they invented the notion of contour lines in figuring out how to do this. Oh, and they had to measure distances to incredible precision as well.

Isaac Newton, in Principia, deduced the earth must be oblate due to rotation.

Now, the stupid French, based on Descartes and the Cassini's, and this stupid vortex theory of planetary motion, thought the Erf had to be prolate.

That was just so French of them. They had settled that a few decades earlier. Newton (pbuh) was correct. Of course.

I've been thinking about why that pissed me off so much and I think it's because it's another periodic resurgence of the stupid failed "Back to the Land" movement. Every couple of decades some bored, rich college kids rediscover Thoreau and think they've found Nirvana. I've got my little garden to grow cabbage and tomatoes and I've got my kiln to make ugly pottery to sell to the townies. Who could possibly need more than that? Until they run out of veggies in the winter or electricity to drive their Cybertruck to the farmers' market. Even Thoreau had to borrow his neighbor's ax and then f*cked it up by ruining the handle. But they are incapable of seeing anything beyond their own arms' reach.

I've watched a couple of videos on YouTube explaining how the JW "religion" works. It's very corporatized. Services are run like company meetings.

Everything comes down from a council of elders (eight of them, I think).

Very cult-like in many aspects.

They like to set up a stand outside the front of the campus library where I used to work (but never worked for), hoping to attract interested college students. To their credit, they aren't pushy or aggressive. They just stand there waiting for students to approach them.

It really depends on the individual and what they see as success as well. Homesteading works best if you have a side income because it is hard to knit your own alternator or hand-craft a mortgage payment.
I do think it comes down to a perception of dignity and self reliance.
I have a joke that if a Mexican buys 8 acres of farm land with a house he puts in a garden, some chickens and a horse or two, because he can show he is a gentleman that way. A redneck buys 8 acres and puts in a garden, some chickens and a couple of steers because he knows he is already a gentleman and wants to feed his family too.

That would be the problem. A pretty large percentage of war and death throughout history has been a fight over religion. Not an opinion, just a fact. We seem to mostly be beyond that now.

Islam isn't a religion. It's a social order of conquest with a religion tacked on. The rest of us get along pretty well these days as long as we stay in our lanes.

Of Course: Garbage Tier Network NBC Is Now Doxxing the Lone "Rogue" Holdout in the Lindsay Clancy Case

The media exists solely for purposes of blackmail and incitement to murder.

Sue O'Connell: COMMENTATOR, not a reporter
@SueOC_NBCBoston
EXCLUSIVE: The holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy trial had a history of domestic violence allegations, the @NBC10Boston
Investigators have learned through court documents and interviews with family members.

@awstar11
It's just a matter of time before this guy is doxed and assaulted, if not murdered. Meanwhile Massachusetts has done nothing to stem the leaks or punish the leakers.

How much do you want to bet the Angry Alpha Karens doxxed his name to NBC?

It could also be the disgusting defense lawyer, who has filed a motion asking the judge to set aside the jury's non-verdict and declare Lindsay Clancy innocent on his own authority. The leak may be part of a public pressure campaign.

AG
@AGHamilton29
I was talking to someone who doesn't follow the news much and she had a convo where 3 mid 30's regular women were telling her about the case and they were all completely convinced that the husband killed the kids despite there being no evidence of that and even Lindsay Clancy's reps aren't claiming that.
It's a serious problem that so much of society now views news as a form of entertainment to the point where reality and facts become optional. They just go with the story they think sounds better to them.
It's why people, for example, listen to Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and others who are consistently saying things that are provably false and insane. Conspiracies are now the norm and regularly people are consistently buying into them without evidence. It's a serious threat to a functioning society.

Plus: an actual Lindsay Clancy Super-Fan has done what the TikTok brained AWFULs told her was every woman's right to do, and hanged her 11th trimester fetus -- also known as a 2-year-old toddler -- and then declared she was temporarily psychotic and would like her book deal and Oprah appearance now.

She's claiming she suffers from "grief psychosis" so I assume a jury made up mostly of Angry Karen Nurses and Teachers with TikTok Brain will acquit her too.

An Illinois mother allegedly hanged her 2-year-old son that she described as the "anti-Christ" -- hours after discussing the Lindsay Clancy case with friends, authorities said.
Corie Walsh, 38, is facing first-degree murder charges after one of her neighbors found Walsh's son, Barrett, hanging from the rafters in the family's basement, FOX 32 reported.
Walsh allegedly told investigators she killed her young son because he's the "anti-Christ" and "devil," according to prosecutors.
Little Barrett was found with his feet off the ground, and a ligature around his neck.
...
Walsh was reportedly found lying in a bathtub, fully clothed and drenched in bloody water.
She was hospitalized after police determined she had attempted to self-harm, according to a court proffer viewed by FOX 32. Her injuries were not considered life-threatening.
Three other children were found unharmed inside the home.
...
Prosecutors say that Walsh was infatuated with the Clancy trial, having texted friends about the case at 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday, just three hours before Barrett was found dead.
...
At the the time of Barrett's tragic death, the jury was still deliberating Clancy's case, a parallel prosecutors have noted to FOX 32.
...
Walsh's husband was out of town at the time of the alleged murder and flew home Tuesday evening.

Killing the kid, attempting a kinda-fake "self-harm," doing it when the husband is away -- she's following the Lindsay Clancy playbook.

And now her lawyer announces she was just "psychotic" so she gets to kill one kid for free. After all, Lindsay Clancy got to kill three. Fair is fair.

Corie Walsh's defense will argue that the Illinois mother was psychotic and that the charges do not amount to first-degree murder after she was accused of killing her 2-year-old son.

"She was psychotic. And this is not a first-degree murder," Andrea Lyon told reporters.

Ah-ha! In the last post, I speculated that the lone juror is totally made up to feed into commie Karen’s fever dreams. Yes, I know there was a lone holdout, but we know nothing about him other that what was told to us by stark raving lunatics.

That lone juror could be anyone.

This is an op. The courts surely know his name and address. I have no doubt someone could have leaked it. But they didn’t. I speculate that’s because he (or she) bears little resemblance to the op.

I could be wrong. We’ll see. But I don’t think I’m wrong.

He didn't follow his instructions and refused to acknowledge a suffering mother's mental illness. Why are we rooting fir him because he's Black?

why do yall see this as a good thing? yall are falling for the culture war, hook line and sinker.

i’m a card carrying member of the DSA, and a black woman with bipolar who has experienced psychosis. maybe research what post partum psychosis actually looks like and see if you still agree with this juror.

this from her attorney is definitely a dog whistle, especially since we know that he knows that juror was Black when he made this statement, "Clancy was robbed by this man." And the old white Karen saying he was "very arrogant"? Of course the Black person that you guys can't control is arrogant.

That brotha was probably making his decision based on how the justice system treats us. Other jurors were basing it on how it treats them.

Would a black woman or especially a black man get off with the psychosis excuse? Only a young white, reasonably attractive white women would ever get this amount of attention

Mass apparently has both a different rule than most states on burden of proof. But it also has a two prong test. State has to prove she could control her urges to commit murder AND know was wrong. The control of urges (volition) is the old irresistible urge defense that has been debunked years ago by psychology and expunged from law in most places but still present in a few places like MA (see Anatomy of a Murder which was based on a real trial on how that works. )

People in mental health spirals are found guilty all the time. They feel terrible so they murder.

Probably.

1) most decent dudes are out of the game from most reports, which leaves the operator type.

2) what are the odds that your random first date first, has a psychotic relative and second, would tell you if he did?

The 'making it all up' alternative is still a strong one, since this new person basically repeats just what she believes. He has no agency or new angle, he's a sock puppet by her story.

I don't completely buy it. I believe she had mental health issues, but she deliberately concealed them, didn't get them treated properly through her deliberately actions, plotted the murder of her children well in advance, and put together a detailed plan to avoid anyone interrupting her in the execution of the killings. That's not a sudden snap, and it's not an irresistible compulsion. The fake suicide attempt was just part of her coverup to gain sympathy and strengthen her pre-determined legal defense, along with her statements immediately after being found (asking for attorney and status of her legs, not of her children). She knew it was wrong, planned it over time, and avoided multiple off ramps for assistance. I don't know if it was some kind of thing to hurt her husband, or some kind of relief from mental issues, but I don't buy it being an irresistible compulsion.

Austin Harrouff in Florida murdering a stranger and eating his face as cops kicked him is a psychosis snap I can believe.

126 People in mental health spirals are found guilty all the time. They feel terrible so they murder. To be not guilty by reason of mental defect you have to show you did not understand what you were doing is wrong. Just planning the errands for the husband to create opportunity is enough to show she understood what she was doing was wrong.
Posted by: Ted Torgerson at September 11, 2026 06:41 PM (wGerL)

The insanity defense in Massachussets provides that they're not guilty if the person is lacking in criminal responsibility -- which means they suffer from a mental disease or defect, AND as a result, either is substantially unable to appreciate the criminality or wrongfulness of the conduct OR is substantially unable to conform her conduct to the requirements of the law.

So she could know the murders are wrong but be unable -due to psychosis -to stop herself from doing it. Not saying that happened. But the law is just a little different from some other states.

You just can't get over the 3 dead kids can you? The prosecutor wasn't very sympathetic to Lindsay at all...she was a big meanie, while Kevin was so sweet and charming, and really showed what a great mother Lindsay was. No one had a bad word to say about her, so she must have snapped.

148 She researched murder
She planned murder
She methodically murdered her children
She is a murderer.

We now have two generations of mush brained adults loosely tethered to reality who are watching and believing this shit show as presented by the media and tik tok then proceeding to copy cat kill their children.

As long as judges, lawyers and the media are allowed to present shit shows as reality this will continue.

162 I'm increasingly convinced that Innocent By Reason Of Insanity needs to be eliminated as a perverse incentive. I picture replacing it with Insane And Did It, which gets the same sentence but in a different facility, a criminal asylum. It could be right next to the prison, but better designed for preventing self-harm, administering meds, and facilitating talk-therapy sessions.

No better privileges than prison. No day passes or field trips. No early release for Sudden-Onset Post-Sentencing Clarity. And, importantly, no major benefit for common criminal scum to pretend insanity, so it will probably mostly just be people that really need psychiatric treatment that go there.

MA's law is called McHoul rule from the Commonwealth v. McHoul case in 1967. Supreme Court of Mass decided to use the hot new take on insanity that the Model Penal Code used. Which itself was based on the since debunked irresistible impulse research at the time by some fruitcake psychologists.

And Clancy will end up causing multiple murders of children across the US and that is to be laid at the jurors and Massachusetts lawmakers, voters, and their courts. And most of them will find out that society still views murder of children as evil and will go to prison but the children of the copycat killers will still be dead.

Frankly exchange Massachussets and Vermont with Canada--they can become lesser South Ontario, we get whatever sane provinces are out west that want to join the US.

What exactly do you mean by "mental-health spiral" ?

Because where you are going means that all women should be treated as animals or children since they have no Agency.

If a vague pseudo-scientific "diagnosis" of "mental-health" going into a clinical "spiral" is sufficient to declare a person non compus mentis, and it is impossible to tell what part of a "mental-health spiral" a person is in, then any lawyer can get any person off under the premise of a "mental-health spiral".

You just gave excuse to any depressed person to going on a murder spree and get pity, not judgement.

You too are a person who doesn't see the judicial system as a way to protect society, but as a game of emotional manipulation.

I don't think you are compatible with civilized ordered society.

Posted by: Mallamutt

The reason is character evidence is a very tricky thing on its effect on juries and what is and is not permissible in court. Rules of evidence frown upon trying to show the person is bad so they must have done the bad thing. You can get around it but that also allows the other side to bring in character witnesses who always say they were a fantastic person.

Sometimes the issue is hashed out in pretrial over character evidence (and you have to inform the other side that you are going to use it) and the jury never hears that.

If things go sideways for this guy, I will have some very pointed questions for the attorneys about protecting our identities upon my next call up.

217 To be fair going on or off psych meds is the danger zone. Once in the therapeutic zone its usually less risky.

But regardless 1. The mass insanity rule is insane. 'Unable to follow social mores' is way too open. 2. Call 911 and tell the operator, the cop, and ems that you are hearing voices telling you to kill yourself and kids. You're getting a psych hold.

Fully agree and this is my problem with the law. Specifically, should the law make a cutout for mentally-ill people? I honestly struggle with this for the reason you suggest. If Lindsay Clancy can dodge execution, then why shouldn’t Decarlos Brown Jr. (who was ruled incompetent to stand trial)? Either way, in this case the law does provide a cutout and the defense successfully used it, which is absolutely her right.

Oldest a 5 year old girl, in daycare 4 days a week. The next a 3 year old boy, strangled & left in his father's office. He had also been in daycare, though not as frequent as his sister. The 3rd an 8 month old boy, strangled back down in the basement near his sister. He was transported to a hospital for care, and then to evaluate if brain dead.

A small pool of blood was found on the carpeting near the baby which seemed to mean his mother returned to the basement and stood there after slashing herself up with a kitchen knife.

I doubt it was from regret.

The Week In Woke

Nike has been kicked out of the S&P 100 -- which is supposed to be an index of market leaders -- after its share price fell 79% due to incompetence and the handmaiden of incompetence, woke marketing.

Nike stock has fallen roughly 78% from its 2021 peak, traded this summer around levels investors had not seen in more than a decade, and is now about to suffer another symbolic blow.
S&P Dow Jones Indices will remove Nike from the S&P 100, an index intended to represent some of America's largest and most established blue-chip companies. It will remain in the S&P 500, so I would not overstate the mechanical significance of the change, but after everything that has happened to Nike over the last several years, the timing is difficult to ignore.

As a wise man said in the future of 1997, "Killian, here is Subzero, now, plain zero!"

Someone finally did a paper about the costs of DEI policies -- specifically, about the reduction in performance when you stop prioritizing performance and instead prioritize "diversity."

It does have a major cost.

The equity excellence trade-off: A study of EDI in the Canada Research Chairs Program

The analysis reveals that EDI has actively weakened Canadian research and reduced overall academic performance at Canadian universities.
September 1, 2026

By Eric Kaufmann, Leif Rasmussen, and Jonah Davids
September 1, 2026
Is diversity truly our strength? Does equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) improve excellence?
Since 2017, the prestigious Canada Research Chairs (CRC) program, which sets the agenda for Canadian academic research, has moved dramatically in the direction of implementing EDI ideology and quotas.
Regrettably, prioritizing EDI results in an "equity-excellence trade-off": Canadian taxpayers are funding cultural socialist activism among elite professionals at the expense of the disinterested pursuit of truth.
And, Canadian research is paying a high cost for its unfettered embrace of EDI, both through the non-meritorious appointment of less qualified Black, Indigenous, and female chairs, and by diverting millions of dollars to left-wing scholar-activist research.
According to our analysis -- the first of its kind -- EDI ideology is costing approximately $36 million per year, equivalent to a 12 per cent "tax" on the CRC's $300 million annual budget.

While previous studies have examined demographic differences and the effects of EDI on organizational and team performance, none has examined its organizational-level consequences in academic research. This study fills that gap by testing EDI's impact on research output in the CRC holders program from 2016 to 2025. It turns out, diversity is not merely neutral -- it can actually lower performance.
To determine the scope of the EDI problem, we measured all award holders listed on the CRC site using the industry standard publication metric, the h-index, which combines both the number of articles a scholar has written or co-written with the number of times those articles have been cited by other researchers.
Our analysis reveals that EDI has actively weakened Canadian research and reduced overall academic performance at Canadian universities. Specifically, we find that:
* The average h-index of publication impact for Black or Indigenous chairs is 18, for female chairs is 28, and for White or Asian males is 38.
* The proportion of chairs who are White males declined from approximately 80 per cent in 2000 to around 25 per cent in 2025.
* EDI hiring resulted in lost productivity equivalent to 10 to 15 per cent per "equity-deserving" (female, Black, Indigenous) Canada Research Chair between 2016 to 2025.
...
EDI in American federal grants peaked in 2021 and collapsed after 2024, but kept on rising in Canada, reaching record-setting levels by 2025.

@collin_cleary
I spent 30 years in academia. Here are my observations about my students. Toward the end, I was teaching "Gen Z." These students combined ignorance with strident moral certainty. They seemed to have had no general education at all, and lacked the most basic knowledge of history, even recent history. They were immature and emotionally fragile.
Many could not handle criticism, no matter how sugar coated. It took very little to reduce them to tears -- or to send them into a fit of narcissistic rage. They were shockingly bereft of intellectual curiosity, and many gave the impression of having no internal life at all.
I'll share more observations later.
More observations about my students: Many could not follow a simple chain of reasoning. Often it seemed like my class was the first occasion they had ever been challenged to think. It was common for them to visit me in my office hours and to ask me to tell them exactly what I wanted them to say on tests or in papers. When I said that I wanted to see evidence that they had done their own thinking, they would look panic stricken.
Some more observations about my students: It was extremely difficult to get a class discussion going, because they were often unwilling to make judgments of any kind. Partly, this was because they had an intense fear of offending anyone. In addition, most believed that everything is "relative" and that therefore it's wrong to judge (completely blanking out the fact that this itself is a judgment).

Trump Administration launches probe of California and New York Schools for allowing minorities to repeatedly bully and hit Jewish students without consequence.

The Trump administration on Thursday launched two separate federal civil rights investigations into antisemitic persecution of Jewish students inside California's Etiwanda School District and the American Musical Dramatic Academy (AMDA) in New York, according to the advocacy groups that prompted the action.
The probe of Etiwanda schools--a 14,000-student district in California's Inland Empire--stems from a March 6 complaint to the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights, alleging that a 12-year-old girl "was subjected to repeated anti-Semitic bullying, harassment, and discrimination that continued to escalate due to inaction from the school." At New York's AMDA, one of the top schools for developing Broadway stars, a Jewish student allegedly "faced retaliation after she reported anti-Semitic harassment shortly after beginning studies at the performing arts college."
Both complaints--filed by the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law and the Anti-Defamation League--were deemed credible enough by federal officials to initiate a probe, which will determine whether the schools violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by permitting discrimination against Jews. They are the latest federal actions aimed at stemming Jew hatred in the wake of Hamas's Oct. 7 terror spree, which fueled a massive rise in antisemitism across American college campuses and even primary schools.
The Etiwanda school district, which is 16 percent white, is in a county where the Jewish population is estimated to be at less than 1 percent. At the Etiwanda Intermediate School, which teaches sixth through eighth grade students, a Jewish girl was struck repeatedly with a stick and told to "Shut [her] stupid Jewish ass up" when yelling for help, according to the complaint. "She was then pinned against a table and choked for several seconds, until she escaped." The student also faced harassment inside the classroom, including in one case where the student was publicly "humiliated" and told, "This wouldn't be an issue if you weren't Jewish."
The Brandeis Center, ADL, and pro-Israel organization StandWithUs subsequently notified the Education Department's Office for Civil Rights of more disturbing behavior in the school district that allegedly included "students giving Nazi salutes in the hallways, the drawing of swastikas, praise of Hitler and the Nazi Party, Holocaust taunts and anti-Jewish slurs." The original complaint documents instances in which "a student allegedly said, 'I love making Jews uncomfortable, especially with Hitler jokes'" and another where a student was called a "stupid Jew."
"The continuing harassment is significant because the Brandeis Center, ADL and StandWithUs allege that the district's inadequate response to the original incidents left the hostile environment in place, allowing anti-Semitic conduct targeting the same victim to continue incident after incident," the organization said in a press release.

...
AMDA reportedly investigated the incident and found that "several students had intentionally targeted the Jewish student." However, the performing arts school ultimately imposed a "mutual no-contact directive" on both the Jewish student and her abusers, a decision that the complaint alleges penalized the Jewish student for reporting to law enforcement what would likely constitute a hate crime.
"Rather than protecting the student from retaliation after she reported the anti-Semitic harassment, the complaint alleges that AMDA allowed the retaliation to continue and failed to punish the students for violating the directive," the organizations said.

Female resident of Zohran Mamdani's NYC complains that homeless men are allowed to just whip out their dicks and p*** anywhere they want, resulting in a filthy city that reeks of bum-urine.

Also in NYC: A Gentle Giant "Teen" whips out a knife and chases a soccer player around. The soccer player must be thanking God for his superior speed and endurance, or he'd be dead now.

No arrests for this in Zohran Mamdani's NYC. Arresting Gentle Giant "Teens" would be racist.

🚨 attempted beheading 🚨
Let's check in on Round Rock, Texas (near Austin), where 26-year-old sub-Saharan African Benedict Ogbodiegwu Jr. just allegedly murdered a White man, 62-year-old Andrew James Wimsatt.
Andrew liked to sit at the park and take photos that he shared on his IG. Around 11am, Wimsatt was sitting on a park bench when Ogbodiegwu began attacking him with a knife. Ogbodiegwu wrapped his left arm around Wimsatt and started viciously stabbing him. Wimsatt tried to push him off but failed.
Ogbodiegwu continued stabbing Wimsatt several times before Wimsatt fell to the ground. Ogbodiegwu then got on top of the victim and started visibly sawing Wimsatt's neck with the knife before running away toward the park�s pool area.
The attack happened at Chandler Creek Park and was captured on a nearby security camera.
That video will never be released to the public and will stay hidden forever so as not to alarm White people.
More: No indication yet that he's an illegal alien, but he has been repeatedly arrested and repeatedly let go. Can't be a "carceral" nation, after all. It's racist unless remorseless criminals are permitted to roam free and cut your head off.

@AustinJustice

NEW DETAILS on the murder and attempted beheading of a man at a Round Rock park.
Andrew James Wimsatt sat down on a bench that Monday morning in a plaid blue button-up and shorts. Three minutes later he was dead.
A neighbor's camera had already caught Benedict Ogbodiegwu Jr. leaving his house that morning, walking toward the park with something in his left pocket that detectives say looked like a large knife sticking out.
He stopped for a drink at the water fountain by the basketball court. Then he found Wimsatt.
He came from behind, wrapped his left arm around the man, and started driving the knife into his neck. Wimsatt tried to push him off. He couldn't. He was stabbed several more times before he hit the ground.
Then Ogbodiegwu walked around to his left side, knelt down, put his knee on the dying man's chest, and kept going -- sawing the blade back and forth while it was inside his neck.
He wiped the blade on his shirt and jogged off toward the pool.
Four minutes after he left the park, that same neighbor's camera caught him walking back home, two houses away.
That afternoon he turned up at a McDonald's in a different outfit and left as a passenger in a red SUV. The plate traced back to his father's house, nine-tenths of a mile from the bench.
When detectives showed him a still from the crime scene video, he admitted it was him. Then said he was never at the park. Then said he has a twin. Asked for his twin's name, he had nothing.
Deputies found a trash bag by the garage. Inside: the Honda shirt he was wearing at the murder scene, grey sweatpants with red stains, size 12 Jordans, and a 5.5-inch knife with a wooden handle. The red substance on the blade tested presumptive positive for human blood.
The two men had never met. He apparently decided to just stab a stranger.
In January, Ogbodiegwu was arrested for theft, which was dismissed. In May, arrested for giving police a fake name - also dismissed. Years earlier, he was arrested for theft.
Apparently theft isn't a real crime any longer.

The victim, Andrew Wimsatt, was 62 years old, and an accomplished civil engineer in Texas. He was also an avid nature and wildlife photography enthusiast.
Fox News host @greggutfeld called him "supremely gentle. Willing to do just about anything for another person."
Before his murder, Andrew had just returned from visiting his mother a nearby nursing home.

🚨 JUST IN: Fairfax High was ready to welcome him back into the hallways. ICE put him on a plane instead.
Israel Flores-Ortiz, an illegal alien from El Salvador released into the country under Biden in 2024, enrolled as a junior at Fairfax High School in Virginia. He was convicted of assaulting nine girls by grabbing them between the legs in crowded corridors. Some victims were as young as 13. Local court gave him months, not years.
An immigration judge ordered him removed on Aug. 10. On Aug. 31, the day Fairfax County let him out of jail, ICE arrested him. On Sept. 8, he was deported to El Salvador. Nine girls got a predator in their school. America finally gave him a one-way ticket home.

25 Female resident of Zohran Mamdani's NYC complains that homeless men are allowed to just whip out their dicks and p*** anywhere they want, resulting in a filthy city that reeks of bum-urine.

So it's 1970's New York City again?

53 I still think it's very important to understand that NIKE and Bud Lite ad campaigns were developed by the exact same advertising agency. That would be Wieden+Kennedy, who are based in Portland, Oregon.

Sure, both companies had to sign off on the campaigns, but that why you hire an advertising agency instead of doing it internally. The Ad agency is supposed to understand the culture, demographics and what will/ won't play with the public.

Personally, that's exactly what I would expect to come out a company that chooses Portland as its HQ.

And, I'd not necessarily say "they" voted for it.

Someone(s) did.

Nobody's naive enough to think there wasn't horseshit behind the Islamist being mayor of NYC.

Find out who was. And go after them. It probably wasn't "just" the public. But, if you do... make an example of them. So others think twice.

its pretty simple. Normal Dems are as popular as cancer so they wanted another 'unknown' Clinton, Obama to sell to the credulous liberals. So they arranged for him to win in NYC.

Trouble is he's dumb enough to believe what the professors told him about communism he's running their city into the dirt in record time.

146 I saw and experienced a lot of terrible things on 9-11. For many years after, I kept having this repeating dream. The short version is I was walking down the street, I turned the corner and there was a policeman standing in the street. He appeared to be guarding part of a jet engine. The engine was mangled, but you could make out the cowling. He didn’t say anything, he just looked at me. Then at the end he pointed for me to walk in the other direction.

Many years and fifths of bourbon later, I discovered what the dream was all about. When I was egressing on 9-11 I cut down one of the side streets, when I came around the corner there was debris. But in that debris was the face of a person and what was left of them after being on an airplane that crashed into the tower, and plummeted 80 stories. Even given all the heinous things I saw that day, I suppose that was the breaking point for my mind. I buried that so deep, and it hurt so much, my mind just would not recollect what I really saw. I’m not an emotional guy, but I wept like a small child when that came out.

Just thought I would share that.

185 I read that they were badgering that poor juror all week and eventually towards the end he said that maybe there was an outside chance of some reasonable doubt, at which point they stopped piling on him....AND THEN, he voted guilty anyway. Which tells me the juror was just tired of the Karen's and said that to shut them up...and voted his conscience based on evidence and opinion....

Which is gangster, and explains why those three women jurors were so pissed.

I take solace in the 23rd Psalm as something to aspire to. Especially "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me". Because it says to me "I will not die alone. If I die, I'm taking all of you heathen motherfuckers with me."

Twenty Five Years After 9/11, Most Have Forgotten -- and the Children Who Were Born After the Terrorist Attack are Being Taught That Muslims Were the Victims and Americans the Racist Aggressors

How on earth was this allowed to happen?

Hijacking history: Woke teachers offer twisted 9/11 lessons focused on 'Islamophobia' -- not 2,977 innocents killed

Only two US states legally require that 9/11 be taught in public schools -- and the void is being filled with twisted lefty lessons blaming America, downplaying Islamic terrorism and portraying Islamophobia as the real tragedy.
The hijacked history of America's darkest day has created a lost generation. According to one shocking new study, two-thirds of American Middle East studies professors say college kids cannot identify who attacked the US on Sept. 11, 200,1 or why.
New York requires schools to observe a moment of silence on Sept. 11 and the state Board of Regents includes teaching about the attacks in social studies standards, but the state has no standard curriculum covering the attacks.
Only Arizona and Florida mandate that the 9/11 attacks be taught in schools. Ten states have statutes that encourage teaching about the attacks -- which could mean anything from a moment of silence, classwork, or a school assembly, according to an August University of Wisconsin Study.
"We made a promise to 'Never Forget', but today, only a handful of states require 9/11 to be taught in their schools," Rep. Andrew Garbarino (R- Long Island), who is pushing legislation to mandate 9/11 curriculum be taught in all 50 states, told The Post.
In the absence of mandatory standards, leftist activists -- some backed by billionaire George Soros -- are producing lesson plans filled with woke distortions of the attacks, even in New York City schools, according to an analysis from the North America Values Institute, an education watchdog.
"Teaching Beyond September 11th" -- a radical retelling of 9/11 that devotes a single paragraph to the horrific attacks and fails to refer to the murderous Islamic extremists as terrorists -- focuses lessons on "Right-Wing Extremism" and "Islamophobia and the Oval Office."

The curriculum was developed by the University of Pennsylvania's Graduate School of Education, and includes this passage: "On the 11th of September 2001, 19 hijackers flew two airplanes into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York, one airplane into the Pentagon in Virginia, and a fourth into a field in Pennsylvania. A total of 2,996 people were killed, including the hijackers."

Never forget, the hijackers were the First Victims on 9/11.

Education departments in Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Wisconsin and Oregon all recommend "Teaching Beyond September 11th" in public schools.
The lesson does not provide the radical Jihadist motivations of the terrorists, and appears to equivocate on whether al-Qaeda mastermind Osama Bin Laden was behind the attacks.

"The US accused Saudi national Osama bin Laden, living in Afghanistan at the time, of being the mastermind behind the attacks," the lesson states, without mentioning bin Laden's multiple confessions or his broader campaign of terrorism and declaration of Jihad against the US -- which he labeled the "worst civilization witnessed by the history of mankind."
Other topics in "Teaching Beyond September 11th" include "Surveillance of Muslims," "The Muslim and African Ban," and "Muslim Youth and Resistance."

The Real Victims.

Oh, and I enjoy Muslim Youth and Resistance -- in other words, justifying Muslim violence on college campuses as heroic "resistance" against Jews trying to get to class without being spat on or punched.

A lesson on the 2005 riots over a Danish cartoon depicting the prophet Muhammad -- which caused the deaths of 250 people globally -- asks students to discuss how the media "presented certain values as more important than the fact that the cartoons were offensive and racist."
Zineb Riboua, a Research Fellow at the Hudson Institute, told The Post that the attempts to rewrite 9/11 history was part of a broader leftist project.
....
The NEA, the national teachers labor union, provides resources for teaching 9/11 that quotes radical anti-Israel professor Edward Said calling the US "cruel and inhumane" and blaming the 9/11 attacks on America's support for the Jewish state.
The Voices Ethnic Studies curriculum used in Pittsburgh public schools teaches that the attacks led to "increased experiences with racism and Islamophobia," with no mention of how many people were killed or by whom.
A California ethnic studies curriculum reportedly stated that "9/11 served as a catalyst to bring about more blatant discrimination" and referred to America as a "colonizer."
The Council on American-Islamic Relations pushes 9/11 curriculum that accuses the US of "state-sanctioned Islamophobia" after the 9/11 attacks.
The woke propaganda appears to be having its desired affect, according to a damning new poll.
An overwhelming majority (66%) of American Middle East Studies professors believe that college students cannot correctly identify who the perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks were or what its causes were, according to a poll released by the academic research nonprofit the Association for the Study of the Middle East and Africa.
The poll also finds that the historical hijacking is not limited to America's public schools. Two-thirds of Middle East Studies professors said that scholarly academic work actively runs cover for regimes, groups and ideologies that hate America, according to the survey of 470 respondents.
Not to be outdone, a woke NYC teacher has taken it upon himself to assign his students Osama Bin Laden's infamous "Letter to America."
Adam Feinberg, who teaches at Brooklyn's City Polytechnic High School, then has them answer questions based on the propaganda text, such as, "Why do you think Osama bin Laden hates Jews so much?"
Other questions include, "For what reasons does he believe that America is the 'worst civilization witnessed by the history of mankind?'"
He also asks, "Find the word 'usury'. It means lending money with high interest rates. Why do you think Osama bin Laden disagrees with this?"
...

Feinberg, who made $113,394 in 2025, routinely disseminates his leftist ideology on social media, such as sharing a meme mocking assassinated conservative firebrand Charlie Kirk shortly after his death. Feinberg did not deny the worksheet belonged to him but declined further comment.
...

The goal of the curriculum is to "relate anti-Muslim racism/violence with other forms of racism and violence (e.g. Black Lives Matter; xenophobia, anti-Semitism etc.) in the United States and abroad," per its website.

750,000 NYC voters have no memory of 9/11 because they weren't even born when it happened.

Zohran Mamdani won his primary by only 129,940 votes.

Just 17% of post-9/11 voters, 1.7% of NYC, put the "globalize the intifada" guy in control of New York City. https://t.co/MLnOzwBoP7

It all started with this brain-damaged cokehead partyboy lib:

Only 6 days after 9/11, Bush, accompanied by CAIR and other Islamic leaders, visited a mosque and said, �Islam is peace.�

Since then, America has imported 4 million Muslims. 80% of all Muslims in America are the result of the post-9/11 decision to increase Islamic immigration. pic.twitter.com/x4CvzNr79V

George Bush has always been sold as a man who met the moment. Even some of his haters describe him that way. �I didn�t like him, but he was great after 9/11.�

You can�t handle that moment worse than George Bush handled it. 20 years of war and Muslim calls to prayer in America. https://t.co/xQmgm9vyF3

George W. Bush was personally warned in May of 2001–via a top secret memorandum marked “For the President Only”—that Osama Bin Laden was planning spectacular attacks against the U.S. using hijacked aircraft.

The May 22, 2001 memo, prepared exclusively for President George W. Bush, was entitled “Captured Terrorist Details Hostage Plot” and noted that “planning is under way for three separate operations[.]”

We responded to 9/11 with weakness. Instead of immediately nuking Kabul and Kandahar and anyone else who complained about it, we set off on a couple of campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq with no particular goal (talking about DC here) beyond making those countries better places to live for their women, for some reason.

And as mentioned in the post we imported the savages by the millions to prove how much we weren't actually resisting islam, so as not to piss off the regimes' buddies in Riyadh and similar hell holes.

26 F them. The thousands of people who simply showed up for work on 9/11 were slaughtered by the muslims ONLY because they're American. Not one of them was killed because they were islamaphobic or right wing or anything else -- only because they're American.

37 Funny how, twenty years after Pearl Harbor, even twenty-five, we didn't need assemblies and the like to remind us of the sneak attack. Our parents, who lived through it, taught us about it, and the media (then) portrayed it as a horrible event.

My mother was a young woman in 1941. She told me years later she was positive FDR knew about the impending attack, and didn't warn America because he *wanted* us to get into the European/Asian war. I hadn't been taught that in school or read it in any histories . . . but the evidence has been coming out in the decades since.

One of the things that 9/11 put the (temporary) kibosh on was comprehensive immigration reform. GWB and the Republicans were all in on it; the only reason we didn’t get was that Ted Kennedy and the rest of the Democrats didn’t want to give Bush the win.

During President Fox’s September 7 visit, Senator Sam Brownback (R-Kansas) said that they’d had “an excellent week to really bring this topic to the forefront of the thinking across America”.

46 The Hawaii or pacific commanders knew that there was going to be an attack. Not necessarily at Pearl Harbor. That was a surprise, near as I can figure out.

It was also complicated by bungling diplomacy, a formal declaration of war was intended to be presented before the attack itself. This didn't happen, and pissed off a lot of people.

She told me years later she was positive FDR knew about the impending attack, and didn't warn America because he *wanted* us to get into the European/Asian war. I hadn't been taught that in school or read it in any histories . . . but the evidence has been coming out in the decades since.

The failures of Army/Navy command and intelligence have been exhaustively mapped.

The people who think "FDR knew" don't understand naval tactics. Moving the Pacific Fleet to Pearl was indeed an aggressive act, like forward-deploying ground troops long a disputed border.

But if they had even thought Japanese aircraft carriers could have done what they did, it would not have happened. The Battleship School still held a lot of sway, and the raid on Taranto was waved off as Italian incompetence. Americans were too smart to fall for that.

57 It has been said that after September 11 “everything has changed.” I hope that is not true. America must remain America, a symbol of freedom and a beacon of hope to those who seek a better life for themselves and their children. We must increase our security and improve our systems but in doing so we must not forget what has made this nation great—our openness to new ideas and new people, and a commitment to individual freedom, shared values, innovation and the free market. If, in response to the events of September 11, we engage in excess and shut out what has made America great, then we will have given the terrorists a far greater victory than they could have hoped to achieve.

Kimmel and others were hung out to dry, of course. Politically speaking it was a disaster for FDR, for re-election purposes but he was able to quash any investigative reportage for the most part, and somehow kept the Republicans from even deigning to make it a campaign issue. Had a more accurate and complete picture of the timeline and events been revealed at the time it is arguable whether he could have been re-elected.

No, it wasn't. The Pacific is BIG, and so forward deploying ships was a way of sending a message that the US was serious. Remember, the Philippines were ours, and if we were going to have any hope of defending them, moving the fleet to Pearl was the smart play.

What we did not expect was that Japan would be crazy enough to do what the did, or that they even had that capability.

"How on earth was this allowed to happen?"

Surely you jest.

The Long March Through the Institutions, that's how.

Leftists targeted the teaching profession and education as the FIRST and most important institution to "capture." And they were 100% successful, with almost zero pushback until the last couple years (which is still mild and futile).

The entire education infrastructure is 100% under the total control of absolute communists whose sole intent is to brainwash all children until they all hate America.

They're incredibly successful at this. (See: DSA.)

Of course the 9/11 curriculum is corrupted, a ludicrous stew of lies, disinformation, distractions and propaganda.

But 9/11 is just the tip of the iceberg. ALL curricula are similarly corrupted.

The "educators" don't even hide their agenda anymore -- at conferences, they brag how school is now nothing but a "revolution pipeline" to "train the next generation of organizers," etc. etc. They used to only whisper this, but then they realized" Why are we whispering? There's no one here but us!

I definitely would like to have the ability to see an alternate timeline where:

1) All of the Saudi and Emirate Royalty involved in 9/11 are shot and/or tried and hung.

2) All muslims deported from the US and restricted from further entry.

3)And possibly nuking Mecca and Medina just to make sure, their phony-baloney "god" has no power on Earth.

I know, I know...

I denounce myself.

But, like Carter's mishandling of Iran brought further American death and problems, so Shrub's mishandling of the aftermath of 9/11 did the same within our country

Our friend Patrick Brown was the most decorated fireman in New York City and he was killed that day leading his men up in North Tower even after the First Tower collapsed.

So many memories. I was close enough for my apartment to be inside the military cordon area and we had to show ID to get on to our block, as the perimeter was kept by the National Guard with their M16s. Fighter jets screaming overhead. Missing friends who lived in Battery Park City. It just went on and on.

We wore gas masks out in the street the first few days. The smoke from Mordor would blow over our neighborhood whenever the wind was out of the South. Islam is a satanic death cult and it does not surprise me although it enrages me that momdani did his b******* commemoration at the Islamic Center. Afterwards he probably went to a toilet to jerk himself off. They really are masturbating over our grief.

-- Behead anyone who challenges or criticizes Islam.
etc. etc. etc., down to the "triviial" stuff like "It's OK to jack off by rubbing your cock on a a six-year-old's thigh and ejaculate on her vulva, but you must wait until she is 9 to actually insert your penis into her vagina," and "It'k not only OK but mandatory to beat your wife -- but only with a stick no bigger around than your thumb" so the bruises don't show.so much, and so on.

1) Having driven the Taliban from power, we found a local strong man who agreed to keep kicking their ass and we agreed to supply him with infinite guns and a mercenary air force so long as he kept the drug trade within tolerable limits and

2) Having overthrown Saddam, we found a local strong man who agreed to know who butters his bread and we would supply him with guns and he would pump oil for us. Basically Venezuela -1.0.

I actually thought that was what would happen, but instead we got all gay and retarded and starting trying to push literal gay - as if the Afghans didn't already do it!

123 My mother was a young woman in 1941. She told me years later she was positive FDR knew about the impending attack, and didn't warn America because he *wanted* us to get into the European/Asian war.
Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at September 11, 2026 04:32 PM (wzUl9)

The problem with this scenario is that we didn't have to *LOSE* for FDR to get into the war. Any attack and any damage would have done to get into the war. The base was under high alert for a few weeks before Dec 7 and it was lifted that weekend. We had some intelligence the fleet was on the move but when nothing happened we figured it was bad intelligence. They had been delayed just long enough to hit us when we were recovering from the weeks of alert status.

The other problem is that we were essentially already at war in the Atlantic and incrementally extending our aid and coverage to England, fighting U boats over half the distance to England. Pearl Harbor eliminated our quasi neutral protection and in the next months our merchant marine and tankers were sunk in massive numbers.

Arguing that invading the USSR was a mistake is based entirely on after-the-fact information. In June 1941, the Soviet Union looked like a paper tiger. It had taken inordinate losses just to move the border a few miles west against Finland. It has purged its army leadership. According to its own propaganda, it was shot through with traitors.

In 1918, the Bolsheviks got completely rolled and made a separate peace, even to the point of offering tribute. Stalin did so again.

Knowing what he did, Hitler was not insane to attack the Soviets, and came close enough to scoring a knockout blow that people still argue about it.

43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.

44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

162 One thing that gives hope, people can learn. Some people learn faster than others, it is true. I was a little bit slow on the uptake. But as I grew older, and gained life experience, many of the things that I thought were true, or were told were true, was obviously bullshit. Over time this increased to more things.

"What else have they been lying about" is the default position at some point. And someone can start thinking for themselves, gauging the veracity of information. Seeking out primary documents instead of listening to some paid clown with an agenda.

On the other hand it is a huge mistake to sleep soundly in the knowledge that a majority of people will mature as they age, or have an epiphany, or anything of the sort. I think people tend to become more conservative as they age, but this isn't necessarily the way to bet considering the huge mind-fvckery operation that has been deployed in recent years. But I suspect the insanity has been so outrageous that it might have sown the seeds of its own destruction. Too fucking weird, and always fucking weird, on any given issue. It drives people away.

One of the meeting rooms in the university center at my former employer is called the Qatar Room. I don't know if it was called that before 2001. If so, it should have been renamed immediately on 9/12/01. If not, it should never have been named that afterward.

The fact it's still called that is one more reason I have lost all respect for the place.

196 PA is just about lost. It's a little UN. (CAIR, 'special' Human Relation Commissions, 500 pages of changes to the Board of Health), overwhelming DEI at almost every turn - except the excellent public, private and many orthodox schools. Yet, another 'Jewish' Governor.

Why? IDK, but the failure and closing of so many of the old churches and places of gathering and prayer seem to be involved, especially when they were largely white &/or biracial. There's almost no "old time Baptist," etc. learn scriptures (both Old and New Testament), the Ten Commandants, participation from the time kids are toddlers, the "age of reason," brotherhood & sisterhood, Do Unto Others, and so on. Catholic schools are few; the churches combined.

Younger residents have often quit more formal religion all together, some moved to Quakerism, and many to Universal Unitarianism. (Local churches are often being held together by Serbians and Croatians (more western PA) or Eritrean, Ethiopian and other African diaspora in Southwest and West Philadelphia and adjacent counties.

Urban (often Black) Baptist churches are diminishing as elders pass. There has been big growth in Islam as a prominent religion.

Quakers (the Religious Society of Friends) are rooted in Protestant Christianity, but they are often open to and blended with other faiths like Buddhism, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Paganism/nature religions.

Universal Unitarians are believers in personal experience, reason, and conscience as the best guides for spiritual truth. Like Quakers, congregations may include atheists, agnostics, Christians, Buddhists, Pagans, Humanists, and Jews who learn from one another.

201 Something I have posted elsewhere. Yes, it is a bit long. But you ask how this was allowed to happen and this is the answer.

Nobody has forgotten 9/11.

I mean that.

Nobody has forgotten:

Not the people who thought it was abominable act of terrorism.

More importantly, not the people who thought it was a great victory for a certain group.

And, perhaps most importantly, not the people who thought it was something the US deserved on political grounds.

**NONE** of them have forgotten.

The problem is that the people in the first group persistently overlook the number of people in the other two groups and glossed or dismissed their existence from the beginning.

Worse, are the ones who made excuses for all the Truthers who might have otherwise been condemning certain factions because of that condemnation, giving them a place for years while handwaving their subversion.

Now they are shocked, shocked to discover Fifth Columnists and Infiltrators everywhere, usurping positions of power, subverting elections, corrupting education, driving the media, and more.

Nobody has forgotten.

Hollywood: Shit or Garbage

I kinda half-like Sydney Sweeney, but I am getting a little sick of this Jezebel Hussy.

Yes I know that makes me partially gay.

But still.

Madame, please put away your bosoms. I've seen them. We all have. Many times. They're becoming wallpaper. You are making boobs boring, and that I cannot abide.

The heartthrob and "Euphoria" star was looking to get everyone excited for the NFL season when she posed in her birthday suit with a variety of props that cover just enough to be legally distributed on airwaves.
"Think you know sports?" Sweeney said in the ad for Novig, a prediction market company also partnered with the New York Mets. "Prove it."
The camera then pans out to show that Sweeney appears to be fully nude, with only two footballs covering her chest.
"Novig is just sports," Sweeney says.
Among the riskiest shots, Sweeney sits atop a basketball hoop with a basketball on her finger tips and her hair falling over her breasts.
"You can trade this sport," Sweeney says.
"This sport too," she says while wearing soccer gear and a soccer ball held up by her feet.
She then lies on a felt billiards table and quips: "You can't trade this. I just look good here."
Sweeney is no stranger to controversial ads; she's previously sold soap for Dr. Sasquatch, where the soap was infused with her bathwater.

She's supposed to be a major movie star -- but she's acting like the most rancid, desperate OnlyFans e-girl.

I know many of your are naturally skeptical and demand evidence for everything I say, so here is your precious evidence, offered solely to appease the people saying "Cite?"

Ugh, Jennifer Lawrence.

The Doctor Who actor who played Rose Tyler's Soyboy Beta Cuck boyfriend "Mickey" on the show between 2005 and 2010 has been charged with multiple sex crimes, from sexual assault to peeping/spying to indecent exposure.

While the UK legal system did not offer any information on the nature of the investigation, rumors of the actor's behavior had been rampant for years already. In 2021, Clarke even sued the Guardian for libel for its story on the rumors of his history of sexual assault, based on claims from more than 20 women.
The actor sued, but during the trial, more than a dozen women testified against him and alleged that he sexually abused them, charges that he adamantly denied.
Clarke lost the legal challenge and was ordered to pay the newspaper around $4 million in court costs.

Next item: Inde Navarette exploded to the A list, or at least the B+ list, for her turn in Obsession.

Jeff Sneider, meanwhile, is an internet "scooper." What's a scooper? It's someone who passes around rumors about upcoming movies, like who's being looked at for a role or what a plot points might be in it. In other words, it's a job for idiots. 80% of true tips are just planted leaks by the studio, which wants free advertising, so the "scooper" can take no credit for that.

Meanwhile, most "scoops" are false, usually just some bullshit the "scooper" saw on Reddit (Doomcock gets accused of this) or, when there aren't any rumors to drive traffic, simply something the "scooper" made up entirely for clicks.

Anyway, this oxygen thief wrote to Inde Navarette demanding her attention and demanding she give him content for his fake job, and she, or more likely her PR team, didn't respond.

He was outraged that someone would blow-off an internet nobody dickbag and threatened her, telling her that he would begin reporting every nasty and sham rumor he heard about her unless she gives him the attention he deserves:

When someone ragged on him for being a complainy gay bitch, he responded that this wasn't a complaint -- it's a threat.

In other words, he's copping to a blackmail charge.

And he's so arrogant about it. He really thinks he's something. He really thinks his stupid "look up rumors on Reddit and then turn them into twitter posts" job is something to brag about.

And then he doubled down, not just on the blackmail, which he deems a legitimate tactic, but on how awesome he is for being a gay-ass internet movie nerd.

After a ton of criticism, and other internet movie geeks announcing that they cannot countenance blackmail and would no longer platform the blackmailer, he offered a fake apology, in which he spent two sentences fake-apologizing and the rest of the post complaining that He's the Real Victim Here.

@TheInSneider
Sep 5
Tired of the noise so I'll delete and apologize, as per protocol. That way we can all move on. I am sorry to Ms. Navarrette, who was and will continue to be treated fairly, despite previous comments suggesting otherwise.
She got swept up in a long-running feud.
I will continue to battle Hollywood's gatekeepers and publish the truth about this industry, as I always strive to. But my ego got the best of me and I went overboard with my victory celebration.
Having said that, the things I�ve seen written about me on this app over the past 24 hours from people who have never met me, spoken to me, subscribed to my newsletter, or watched my podcast, are absolutely crazy and I suggest some of you take a long, hard look in the mirror, because you're way worse than I could ever be.

But most of us aren't blackmailers.

I don't send execs death threats or anti-Semitic comments or any of the crazy shit I�ve been sent. This app is nuts, but I�ll never leave, because we deserve each other. You're stuck with me. And so is Hollywood. Have a safe and happy Labor Day Weekend. I'll use the holiday to reflect and maybe I'll return kinder and gentler. Let's hope you do the same�

I've never before been scolded so much in what purports to be a "per protocol" (in other words, offered only under pressure to relieve the pressure) apology.

Hollywood has made a movie about "To Catch a Predator" and its host Chris Hanson. It's called Primetime.

They never contacted Hanson, ever.

The only plausible explanation: The film is a hit piece against the guy catching predators to protect the poor, embarrassed child sex predators.

No, really. One of the gay child sex predators the show exposed killed himself, and this new movie, featuring Robert Pattinson, attacks the entire mission of exposing predators based on one predator's cowardly decision to off himself.

The film apparently centers on the death of William Conrandt, who got caught up in a sting operated by Hansen's team. Conrandt never showed up for his meeting in the sting, however, and Hansen never confronted him, on camera or off. Police got warrants for Conrandt, a former assistant DA, who shot himself when police showed up, THR notes in a lengthy parenthetical added to the transcript of their interview with Hansen. That makes this framing for Primetime even more suspect, since (a) law enforcement conducts similar stings, and (b) Texas had been conducting a parallel operation at the time as well.
When asked by THR whether Hansen regrets what happened with Conrandt, Hansen wonders what exactly he's supposed to regret:

We were completely transparent about what happened from the moments after it happened. This was no secret. It was unfortunate that somebody chose to take his life rather than face criminal consequences. You can draw your own conclusions as to why. They found child pornography on his computer. He had sexually explicit conversations with two different decoys posing as 13-year-old boys.
I can't speak for the police, but they decided to arrest him, apparently concerned about the possible destruction of evidence. He chose to take his life rather than face the consequences. We reported what we knew the next day on the Today show and continued to be transparent throughout the story.
There are certain things you can't control. Obviously, you don't want anybody taking their own life, but that was a decision made by that individual. They'll ramp it up in the film, I'm sure, and make it more dramatic than it really was. It was based upon an Esquire article that came out years ago that was a bit of a hit piece then, and apparently it's part of the narrative in the film.

Isn't it very odd how Hollywood both protects child sex predators and even attacks anyone exposing them?

Hollywood is just Hell with good restaurants. And I'm done with Robert Pattinson, who I never cared for anyway.

Speaking of Hollywood predictability: It's always when there's a Republican president when Hollywood puts out movies glorifying assassinations, civil wars, and uprisings. When there's a Democrat president, it's a scandal to even consider such material for theatrical exploitation.

Well, Trump is on office, the left is gunning down executives and celebrating their assassins as folk heroes, and Hollywood decides now is the perfect time to celebrate the so-called Peasants' Revolt from around, I dunno, 1340? (Nope, 1381.)

I'm assuming that's what this. Wat Tyler's rebelling over... well, taxation.

But I doubt they'll make it about government taxation. They'll claim it was over forgiving student loans and child care.

"It's time to set the world on fire."

And the trailer does mention taxes but then shifts the real grievance to... being forced to work for wages. Something Gen Z and Millennials are constantly complaining about. Changing a revolt over taxes to a complaint that we shouldn't have to work at all because Real Socialism Has Never Been Tried.*

To hell with Andrew Garfield, who is a really obnoxious Marxist SJW anyway, and Paul Greengrass too.

The only new movie I'll pay to see in theaters:

Bonus: this is annoying as hell, but keep in mind, it's the """ reporters """ who are constantly asking actors if they agree that their new movie is the gayest movie ever and supports LGBT folx.

Their answer here is essentially forced.

* Actually, watching that video, I see that part of the problem was "duties" owed to the king and the lords. So it wasn't just a matter of money taxation, but required labor for the lords.

Will the movie make the point, then, that it is evil to force one man to work for the profit of another? You know, like in socialism or communism? Doubt it!

Same. But I can't blame her. She's what, 27 or 28? She's only got so much time, so she might as well bank as much bank as she can. It won't last forever.

The most surprising thing about her isn't that she's over-exposing herself. That's par for the course.

What's surprising is that she's at the height of her fame and draw power, and she chooses as a boyfriend a ... notorious casting-couch womanizer with a taste for barely legal women. And he's almost old enough to be her father.

But he's rich and powerful, so there's that. There's a lesson in this, you know. For both the ladies and the guys.

34 Terribly unsurprising Hollywood would make a movie that demands nuance re: the poor feelings of pedos.

However, Pattinson is always reliably gonzo in his roles, so it’s probably entertaining. He seemed to enjoy his part in the Oddessey.

It's rather gratifying to note that one of Clarke's early roles was as a Roman soldier being chased by wolves in Neil Marshall's flick "Centurion".

73 Three comments. Yes, Sweeney is built hot. Kind of irrelevant for at least me to give that much thought as it is highly unlikely I would ever even be in the same building as her and even more unlikely she would have any interest in me. Hollywood and the entire entertainment industry has no interest in producing things that appeal to me. Luckily practically everything ever made in the past is available to partake in, so I have no need for them at all. Last, part of the reason the young are at least open to socialist ideas is because society has moved more and more to where you get paid a bare subsistence unless you are a nepo or a star or extremely good at strategic brownnosing. Also the lack of interest or knowledge of history prevalent with modern youth..they don't know that the history of socialism has always created worse conditions even than those they have now. Someone hurry up and invent a time machine so I can go live in 1969, which I was too young to thoroughly enjoy at the time.

Seriously though, as retarded as it is it's pretty fun. Jim Carrey just plays The Riddler as Ace Ventura. Tommy Lee Jones gabs it up. Zero chemistry between Val Kilmer and Nicole Kidman.

120 Here you go. Hollywood sniffing each other's farts. And 16 minute standing ovations. Blow me. From variety. Venice film festival.

Politics, Politics, Politics
Venice artistic director Alberto Barbera wasn’t exaggerating when he called this year’s lineup “the most political ever.” The 83rd edition was packed with films about hot-button issues like right-wing media barons (“Ink”

, right-wing trolls (“Musk”

, conflict in the Middle East (“NAZA”

and ICE (“They’re Here”

.

Offscreen, it’s become de rigueur to probe actors and directors at film festivals about the state of the world — a conversation that escalated at Berlin after jury president Wim Wenders said filmmakers should “stay out of politics.”

Maggie Gyllenhaal, who is presiding over the Venice jury, disagrees. At the jury press conference, she called movies “fundamentally, unavoidably political” and challenged people to “hear stories about the most corrupt, most perverse people.” Her reasoning? “It opens up the opportunity to find empathy.”

124 Part 2.

Record-Breaking Embrace

Audiences, for their part, seem just fine with politics at the forefront. “Naza,” a devastating exposé about the systems behind the Israeli military’s remote killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza, elicited the longest standing ovation in film festival history. (Or, at least since journalists began reporting on the trend.)

The documentary was met with 24.5 minutes of applause, surpassing the ovation for last year’s Gaza-set drama “The Voice of Hind Rajab” and that of Guillermo Del Toro’s “Pan’s Labyrinth” at Cannes in 2006, both of which clocked in at 22 minutes. Israeli directors Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor are two of the four filmmakers behind 2025’s Oscar-winning doc “No Other Land.” Given the warm reception for and timeliness of “NAZA,” will the duo find themselves back in the awards conversation?

Apparently, Naza's great expose is that prior to October 7th, the Israelis would not target anyone if any nearby bystanders would be hurt, which is why Sinwar always surrounded himself with little kids when he went out in public.

After October 7th, Israel understandably relaxed the ROE, so taking out family members was deemed to be acceptable collateral damage when killing a high-value target.

A couple of days ago, pro-Pali social media was screaming that the Israelis had killed a cute young girl, while failing to mention that she was the daughter of Sinwar's chief bodyguard.

Trump's top immigration official claims an internal investigation found that Congresswoman Ilhan Omar 'married her brother' and could be facing deportation.

'We know that she married her brother to try to bring him into the United States,' Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said of the Minnesota Democrat. 'We know he lives now in London.'

He was speaking about the second man Omar married, who the Daily Mail has previously reported is Ahmed Elmi. Both are originally from Somalia.

232 Sweeney is Sweeney. Let her make the money. (She'll need it years from now to hold stuff together and in.)

Jennifer Lawrence' best - Winter's Bone when she was 18. What was remarkable about the movie, too, was casting local Ozark residents alongside a small core of professional actors like the talented John Hawkes.

Can't stand Nicole Kidman before or now. Her possible best, To Die For Back in 1995. She's looking for another man or something. (Clarifying she marries the odd. Birds of a feather.)

Sandra Bullock cute as America's Darling years ago. Her children (adopted, adorable) are growing up & her partner has died. I guess if Jamie Lee Curtis can keep reappearing as an unbalanced motherly figure, there's room for Bullock...just not with Kidman. That's just way too much nowadays.

Yeah, will watch another Godzilla again. And that's about it that's current.

235 George W. Bush was personally warned in May of 2001–via a top secret memorandum marked “For the President Only”—that Osama Bin Laden was planning spectacular attacks against the U.S. using hijacked aircraft.

Roberta Wohlstetter addressed this in 1962 because there were similar conspiracy theories that the United States had deliberately allowed the Pearl Harbor attack, based on the fact that there were some indications that the Japanese were interested in Pearl Harbor prior to the attack.

The problem is that intelligence agencies have to cope with a flood of information of varying degrees of reliability and try to make sense of it all, and so pulling out a document or two out of that flood and say that this was a smoking gun that the agency should have acted on ignores the fundamental problems with intelligence work.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and New Yorkers of all faiths on Thursday participated in a tribute to the victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Approximately 100 people joined the Children of Abraham Peace Walk, the New York Post reported.
The peace walk was created for people to "come together to remember those we've lost, and to recommit to our shared vision of safety in solidarity," according to an online flyer.

Muslims were the Real Victims of 9/11, you know. Zohran Mamdani has said so repeatedly, "centering" his own experience in being pulled out of class on 9/11 out of fear -- not reality, fear by a leftwing teaching staff-- that he might be "bullied."

I mean, that's the important thing. Not the 2,997 people killed by his cousins, but the fact that a left-wing AWFUL thought he might be briefly bullied.

Amid calls for him to skip the ceremonies altogether, Mamdani only came for the end of the commemoration at the Islamic Center of New York City.
The walk started at the Hebrew Union College before stopping by Judson Church, and then continued on to the Islamic Center, where Mamdani delivered remarks remembering the victims of 9/11 and thanking first responders for their service.

@foxnewspolitics

Rep. Mike Lawler is calling on NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani to skip the Sept. 11 memorial in Manhattan -- with a petition signed by over 100,000 people, led by 9/11 families, backing the demand.
Lawler ripped Mamdani as a "vile antisemite" who has "associated with people who believe America deserved 9/11," pointing to the mayor's ties to far-left activist Hasan Piker and others who have downplayed or justified the attacks. A petition from 9/11 families details Mamdani's praise of Brooklyn Imam Siraj Wahhaj, who was named as an alleged co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
The backlash comes as the nation prepares to mark 25 years since the attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people -- and Republicans say Mamdani's presence would be an insult to the families and first responders who lived through it.

Lawler told FOX News: "From my vantage point, I don't think he should be there, and I think most New Yorkers agree that he should not be there. Certainly, the 9/11 families and the first responders believe he should not be there."
The petition from 9/11 families goes further than Lawler's comments. It details Mamdani's praise of Brooklyn Imam Siraj Wahhaj -- named as an alleged co-conspirator in the 1993 WTC bombing -- and his endorsement of a candidate who described 9/11 as something "a couple of people did in the context of U.S. capitalism, racism, white supremacy, and Islamophobia."
That same candidate also expressed sympathy for Ahmed Ferhani, who pleaded guilty to plotting to blow up a Manhattan synagogue.
Republican Study Committee Chairman August Pfluger took aim at Mamdani as well, saying he shouldn't attend "until he can actually call out terror groups around the world for what they want to do to this country, and that includes Hamas."

NYPD Commisioner Jessica Tisch apparently has a frosty relationship with Mamdani, feeling that he -- get this -- celebrates terrorists instead of opposing them.

She passive-aggressively blasted those blurring the lines between heroes and terrorists. She didn't mention Mamdani by name, but most believe she meant him.

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch blasts 9/11 revisionists blurring lines between heroes and terrorists

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch pointedly called Wednesday for "moral clarity" ahead of the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks -- decrying revisionists who blur the lines between heroes and terrorists.
Tisch made the remarks before a stone-faced Mayor Zohran Mamdani and other NYPD and city officials as they unveiled a new 9/11 Memorial Wall at One Police Plaza.
The wall -- which includes 469 new names, commemorating NYPD members who have died of Ground Zero-related illnesses -- preserves the unfathomable devastation from the attack on the World Trade Center towers and the heroism in response, Tisch said.
"Preserving that history also means preserving its moral clarity," she said, addressing an audience of 9/11 first responders' families.
"The men who attacked this city were terrorists. The men and women who ran into the towers to save innocent lives were heroes," she said.
"Twenty-five years cannot be allowed to blur that distinction and shame on those who do."
The usually straight-shooting top cop left the specific culprits unclear. But the open-to-interpretation condemnation nonetheless set tongues wagging, particularly as Mamdani -- both the Big Apple's first socialist and first Muslim mayor -- leads the city through a politically fractious run-up to the terror attacks' quarter-century anniversary on Friday.
Several lefties in Mamdani's orbit have come under fire for their views on the attacks, notably online personality Hasan Piker, who previously said that "America deserved 9/11." Piker has since walked back his 2019 comments, saying that he meant US actions in the Middle East have a boomerang effect.

This might be what prompted her to blast Mamdani: Mamdani signed a bill to make 9/11 documents available to the public, and then gave this presentation pen to a lawyer for an Al Qaeda terrorist.

And just days before Tisch's remarks, she found herself smack in the middle of a controversy as Mamdani -- fresh off signing an executive order recognizing 9/11 -- asked her to hand a ceremonial pen to his chief counsel Ramzi Kassem, a civil rights attorney who once represented an al-Qaeda terrorist.
Three attendees at the NYPD ceremony told The Post they snickered when Tisch made her remarks on "moral clarity," and perceived it as a dig.
"It definitely sounded like she took a shot at the mayor, especially after the pen incident last week," said one attendee.
Mamdani, for his part, didn't flinch as Tisch made her remarks.
NYPD officials didn't clarify at whom Tisch's remarks were pointed, when pressed by The Post.

The communist jihadi refused calls to skip the 9/11 services.

He wanted that Victory Lap.

Former Governor George Pataki says Mamdani's refusal to condemn the phrase "globalize the intifada" means he should not attend the 25th anniversary memorial for 9/11 -- aligning with a petition against his attendance that over 100,000 victims' families have signed.
Pataki also called it "ridiculous" to say Mamdani is being excluded because of his faith. "Muslims have always been included... but it's different when you tolerate -- let alone encourage -- violence. Then you don't belong there. This is about the families." Not attending, he added, "would be a sign of respect for the suffering that the families still face 25 years later."

It has nothing to do with Zohran being Muslim, it has to do with:
- Zohran campaigning with Imam Siraj Wahhaj -- an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing
- Zohran rapping about his love for the Holy Land Five
- Zohran's inability to condemn Hamas
- Being funded by CAIR
- Zohran's intern Arzoo Malik who called for a Holy War through Jihad
- Zohran's meeting with the woman who is responsible for making being gay punishable by death in Uganda
- Zohran claiming that it is an "illusion" that Muslims can become New Yorkers and settle into the city
- Zohran defending Anwar al-Awlaki -- the terrorist cleric linked to 9/11, Fort Hood, the Underwear Bomber, and whose sermons inspired the Boston Marathon bombing
- Zohran campaigning with Hasan Piker who said that "America deserved 9/11"
- Zohran's imam ally Siraj Wahhaj who referred to Homosexuals as a "Disease of this society"

Below: the pen incident.

He actually made Tisch pass the pen to the terror lawyer.

@DavidAsmanfox
From the NYPOST: After Mayor Mamdani signed the 9/11 documents, he gave Police Commish Tisch the ceremonial pen, and whispered, "Can you pass this?"
Tisch handed it to Mamdani's chief counsel, Ramzi Kassem, who once represented an al-Qaeda terrorist with links to the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon, and who had just snuck into the press conference.
She then hurried out of the room -- the first official to exit the press conference.
This childish, calculated display of passive aggression was missed by no one, and will not be forgotten by Tisch or by NYC's millions of 9/11 survivors.

Mamdani is under fire after a symbolic 9/11 pen was handed to a former al Qaeda defense lawyer.
After signing an executive order designating 9/11 a citywide day of remembrance, the pen was handed to his chief counsel, Ramzi Kassem.
Kassem previously represented a convicted al Qaeda member whose brother-in-law was one of the hijackers aboard American Airlines Flight 77, which struck the Pentagon on 9/11.
The moment is adding to the criticism Mamdani is already facing over his participation in 9/11 remembrance events.

Your decision to stand with a bunch of jihadists days after 9/11 and announce that "Islam is a religion of peace", and then opening the floodgates to Muslim immigration into the US, led directly to Mamdami's election.

As New York’s first Muslim mayor, Mr. Mamdani has been forced to navigate a delicate dynamic. He must speak about Sept. 11 as the city’s top elected official, but also as a member of a religious group that has faced hostility and suspicion since the attacks, and is still being vilified by right-wing factions of the Republican Party.

Before Mamdani leaves office, he'll have a monument with the 19 hijackers names on it, and start including their numbers of the honored dead.

Personally I'd put the hijackers names on a pissing post in a dog park.

Sure.

But the important thing is to always remain in a country run by communists and jihadis, so long as you can read your pocket Constitution by the light of your George Washington votive candle, and have unelected, black-robed priests to tell you your subject status is not a law - just a jizya.

Or dissolve the Union. But we can't have that.

HA, I was astronomically willowed in the last thread, but these threads have a common theme today, so re the warning that the "ERW would "push pro-free speech narratives":

This is one of the very myths that Ayaan Hirsi Ali takes on in her 9/11 25-year retrospective.

Islamists do not believe in freedom of speech or religion or conscience any more than they believe in Superman. They exploit western ideals of individual freedom to accomplish the totalitarian nightmare they want to foist on us.

When that POS Dearborn mayor yells at citizens that they have no right to do this-or-that and lectures them on religious freedom or freedom of speech, it's all a lie.

76 9/11 worked.

It really did - Osama Bin Laden achieved a great strategic victory.

The Economist Magazine, in honor of the 25th anniversary of 9/11, has an article up explaining that Europe is only 6% Muslim, that there are no-go zones in Europe, and almost all Muslims in Europe only want to integrate in to European society and live their lives.

They're simply not a problem.

Of course, for example, only 6% of Belgium is Muslim, but 20-25% of Brussels is, and nearly half of the school kids in Brussels are.

I'm sure that won't be a problem for Belgium when their capital becomes majority Muslim in a couple of decades.

Muslims outside of muslim lands do whatever the hell they feel like doing. Even the Saudi royal family goes to Europe and drinks like fish. So long as they raise their asses to Allah five times a day, they figure they are good. And as for his wife, how is it that she thinks she can leave the house and speak openly about things better left to men, in Islam? Because she won't live as other muslims, because she thinks she is immune to them, but if they do take over, she will find out fast, and she won't like it.

I always liked the story of how after the SAS assaulted the Iranian Embassy at Prince's Gate in '80, Thatcher and her husband immediately went to Hereford to hoist beers with the assault team, supposedly while they were still covered in blood and smelling of smoke and gunpowder, and Denis Thatcher giving the SAS a stern lecture for leaving one of the terrorists alive.

Probably apocryphal, but it's too good of a story to not be true.

Most of the blame for that lies at the feet of the 9/11 terrorists and those who supported and financed them. But part of the blame lies at the feet of some of the most powerful people in the world, who made spectacularly bad decisions, repeatedly misled and public, and behaved in ways that should always be described as shamefully un-American.

107 Read Hillaire Belloc, The Great Heresies. Islam is a heresy of Christianity. It removes all personal responsibility and replaces it with "submission" to Allah, a pagan moon god that resembles Satan in attitude and behavior, except that Satan has to follow rules. Allah does not. He is incomprehensible and does as he pleases. That means any and all behaviors that might further the conquest of Islam are not only allowed but encouraged. Hence, jihad, taqiyya, subjugation of women, and all the other evils of that filthy sect. It likewise means you can't even ask questions of Allah, just do as ol' Mo told you to do. It is the least sensible religion imaginable and creates the least sensible people imaginable.

138 I still wonder how much of the money that NYC got after 9/11 ended up on Dem pockets ? Given the fraud of late I'd say more than a little.

141 islam in an existential threat to our republic.

It is the reason the attackers gave for the 9-11 attacks. It is the reason countless combatants gave us on the battlefield.

It’s not any of the ridiculous reasons and premises proffered by the media, or invented as a pretext.

It is the cult, itself. It’s tenets command and demand our destruction. It exhorts its member to lie, cheat, steal, coerce and murder in its name.

Like the over 3,000 on 9-11, and many more in the years that followed.

islam isn’t a victim. It is the perpetrator.

Muslims do this kind of victory lap at the sites of their atrocities all the time. Always have. That's why they wanted to build a mosque where the World Trade Center used to be, converted Christian cathedrals to mosques in conquered territory, and why this asshole ran for mayor and pissed on the memory of the deceased of 9/11. It's part of the program.

155 I heard there are something like 100 million Americans that were not born yet on 9/11/01.

My nearby hometown (Quincy) recently had a city council meeting where the local mosque (small, run by a woman it seems) was complaining that some councilman had said negative things bout Islam on his social media. So the (female) mayor was very concerned about "Islamophobia".

Quincy is 86% white (non-Hispanic), and 99% not foreign born, so I think there are only a few Muslims, but sure, they are the victims, of course.

The UK Branded Turning Point Members as Dangerous Right Wing Extremists, Claimed Leftists, On the Other Hand, Were "Moderate"

They actually tracked and surveilled Turning Point UK members because they thought they were dangerous -- after a leftist killed Charlie Kirk. They feared they would agitate for "free speech," which is of course dangerous to a corrupt authoritarian and wildly unpopular regime.

They also complained that the "ERW" -- "extreme right wing" -- blamed Kirk's assassination on "the political left."

I am done with the UK. I am done with NATO.

If Russia invades, I'll agitate to send Russia additional weapons to finish the job.

Inside Britain's Counter-Terrorism monitoring of Charlie Kirk's 'Extreme Right-Wing' supporters

A leaked counter-terrorism memo reveals officials tracked Kirk's British supporters, warning they would "push pro-free speech narratives" -- while describing the Left-wing response as �moderate�

One year ago, Charlie Kirk was shot dead; the British government immediately got to work.
Following Kirk's murder, the Research, Information and Communications Unit (RICU), a government counter-extremism and terrorism unit, began monitoring thousands of social media channels, gauging the reaction of what they describe as "Extreme Right Wing" (ERW) activists.
Published here for the first time, a memo generated by RICU reveals that officials assessed that "Extreme Right-Wing" activists, including Tommy Robinson, would use Kirk's assassination to "push pro-free speech narratives".

Counter-extremism agents assessed that Right-wing extremists would use Kirk's death to "encourage more radical action" and "abandon political moderation in favour of more radical political stances".
Meanwhile, RICU characterised the Left-wing online response to Kirk's assassination as "moderate" and largely "factual reporting", despite thousands of Left-wing activists celebrating the shooting.
...

A memo entitled 'RICU Event Response: Charlie Kirk Assassination' was circulated across Whitehall, including to officials in the Home Office, Foreign Office and Cabinet Office, as well as police officers, on 11 September 2025, the day after Kirk was shot.
The memo was classified as "Official Sensitive".
RICU assessed that American and British ERW audiences would present the murder as "a shared attack on the ERW movement and free speech activism more generally", and monitored the response of Turning Point UK, the British arm of Charlie Kirk's American organisation.
"There is nothing 'extreme' about 'pushing pro free speech narratives,'" said Sarah Rogers, the United States Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy, who served as Kirk's attorney on First Amendment issues and has led the Trump administration's advocacy against censorship in Europe.
"That's why censorship by governments proves so unpopular."
Rogers added that in her judgment, the RICU report showed "blind spots" which "regrettably were not unique to the UK," pointing out now-discredited intelligence products rescinded by the CIA "show the same biases."
"Most glaringly, the memo describes the 'leftist' response as 'moderate,' despite describing the same leftists as 'celebratory' of Charlie's murder," said Rogers.
RICU is a government unit based in the Home Office that monitors and analyses terrorist and extremist content and supports government counter-terrorism communications.

This is the same unit that pumps out propaganda like "I'll Ride with You" after Muslims commit terrorist murders and also pushed covid hysteria to help the government control the population.

Founded in 2007, RICU has stirred controversy over its role in coordinating 'controlled spontaneity' campaigns in the aftermath of terrorist attacks, including pre-planned messaging, vigils and demonstrations intended to shape the public's response to terrorism.
For example, after an ISIS terrorist attack in 2014, RICU created an image of a Muslim woman wearing a hijab with a British flag, which was subsequently published on the front page of The Sun and other British newspapers.

The image was created because, according to a leaked document from the company RICU commissioned to make the image, "the UK authorities wanted to challenge ultraconservative and misogynistic interpretations of Islam".

...

"The dominant narrative within the ERW attributes responsibility for the assassination to the 'political left' and claims that it is part of a broader campaign of violence against conservatives and White Christians," the memo stated.

As thousands of left-wing accounts literally celebrated Kirk's murder and called for additional murders, including fresh assassination attempts on Trump.

I am done. Done.

I'm going to donate to left-wing NGOs that settle "migrants" in the UK.

To hell with them all.

Possibly the most important midterm of our lives. No matter how much anyone dislikes the Republican running in their district or state, it doesn't matter. The alternative is literally communism.

The CIA started Operation Mockingbird during the Cold War. They never stopped. They fed friendly media stories to influence media narratives to ones they wanted. It worked on a huge number of people and continues to work. See Russia Collusion hoax.

Then Obama with the help of a uniparty Congress repealed the Smith-Mundt Act through a deceptively title Smith-Mundt Modernization Act. This allowed the government to use propaganda domestically, on us. Also worked.

Putin certainly isn't allowing foreign CHUDs to invade and rape Russian ladies. Just the opposite. Part of his justification for invading Ukraine was that Commandant Dinky the Piano Penis was killing ethnic Russians in the Donbas.

Of course, the main reason that there was a large ethnic Russian population in Ukestan was because Stalin and his minions slaughtered millions of Ukes and Oh Wow, free land with no one tilling it. Might as well move some Russians in there to show the Ukes how it's done. Which is also a major reason why the Nazis got a fairly warm and friendly reception from the Ukes who saw the Nazis as the lesser of two evils. Plus, there was the shared hatred of Joos, which is why Ukes made up a LOT of the death camp guards for the Nazis.

Basically, the only morally certain course of action is for the West to pray for casualties from two shitty ethnic groups.

96 It certainly isn't only the UK. Note the contrast here:

1) Fairfax County's new 9/11 teaching guide devotes roughly half its content to creating "safe spaces for Muslim and Middle Eastern students." while mentioning military families just three times and first responders once.

The six-page document contains 30 references to Islam, "anti-Muslim racism," and "Islamophobic rhetoric." It explicitly tells teachers not to "associate the 9/11 attacks with Islam or Muslims" and not to "center the extremists or the acts of the extremists." Only about 15% of the guide actually spells out specific 9/11 instruction.

Mohamed Atta sat in a small Hamburg apartment and wrote his last will and testament. He was 27, an architecture student at the Technical University, the son of a Cairo lawyer, fluent in German, and living comfortably in one of the most affluent societies on earth.

Nothing in his circumstances compelled him to dwell on death. Yet he gave detailed instructions for the handling of his corpse. “I don’t want any women to go to my grave at all during my funeral or on any occasion thereafter,” he wrote. He did not want a pregnant woman, or “a person who is not clean,” to come and say goodbye. The man who washed his body should wear gloves so as not to touch his genitals. He was to be wrapped in three white pieces of unadorned cloth, laid on his right side facing Mecca, and buried “next to good Muslims.” His money was to be divided “according to the Muslim religion as almighty God has asked us to do.”

France too. But I think back then, the migrants were less numerous and confined mainly to outlier ghettos where the natives never went. That made it less of a problem.

My first trip to Paris, maybe 20 years ago, I was stunned on the cab ride from CDG what a dismal shithole the city was. "This is Paris? Where are all the white people?"

But it was only an outlying ghetto I was driving through. Once I got past that, the "real" Paris awaited.

But now, the infiltration is nearly complete, and the natives can't avoid these mongrels.

Kinda like what happened in Dearborn and other areas of MI.

153 ICYMI:
The head of the Smithsonian, Lonnie Bunch, is retiring, after being told the institution needed to get rid of the anti-American nonsense. It's really been hard on him.

Bunch has denied that he decided to retire because of pressure from the Trump administration. But he did allow that the administration’s spotlight on the Smithsonian’s ideological coloration was “stressful.” After all, he told the New York Times: “When you’re Black in America, you’ve got to figure out how to get through, right?” Would that be different from being white or some other color “in America?”

In any event, few people would deny that Bunch figured out how to “get through” while being black “in America.” For the last several year, he has been pulling down nearly a million dollars per annum, pretty good innings for someone – no matter his quota of melanin – at a tax-exempt, largely publicly funded enterprise.

More bullshit. As far back as the 1980s I heard tales of how fucked up London was getting with all the "migrants". They are not and were not "totally okay" with it. Get real.

Nobody wants this. They are not in a position to stop it, doesn't mean they are "totally okay" with it.

Reb General Albert Sydney Johnson was hit in the back of the knee area by a bullet. It didn't sever a vein, if it had the vessel would have closed up naturally, so it kept bleeding. He had had a previous injury that reduced his pain sensitivity in that leg, so he didn't notice, and the blood filled his boot instead of showing. After he collapsed it took his staff a lot of time to even find what happened. By that time he had bled to death.

Thanks to Spencer Pratt for that.

Gayle King is STUNNED to hear that the rogue oppressor juror is black. "I'm going to have to sit with that for a minute" she actually says, her world rocked by cognitive dissonance.

No women on juries, and no cucks, either. And if their are women, the only men who can be on the jury are those we know to be immune to AWFUL scolding, black men and GamerGaters.

By the way: The cuck male jury who claims the black juror was just "scrolling on his phone" when the other jurors were shrieking at him?

Seems to be a liar:

I checked the guidance in MA on use of phones during jury deliberations and, as I assumed, the policy is that phones are not allowed during deliberations.

Either he is lying or, for some reason, in a massive high profile case, judge let them have phones.https://t.co/QufCIhUbP8 https://t.co/YsmscC0Rkq pic.twitter.com/oz0iRSbKQS

Posted by: Robert at September 11, 2026 12:23 PM (dpXJq)

39 Liberal women are a stain on humanity. Who’d a thunk people who spent their entire lives telling you murdering a child in the womb would be such terrible mothers, wives and human beings.

This is way beyond morality. This is about a mass psychosis where one day the girl boss is posting children’s birthday photos on Tik Tok, and the next day they’re strangling them.

41 No women on juries, and no cucks, either. And if their are women, the only men who can be on the jury are those we know to be immune to AWFUL scolding, black men and GamerGaters.

YT has lots of videos of white Karens getting irate with black men, and in some cases, striking them. It does not end well for the Karens. Say what you will about the problems in American black culture, they are not interested in being lectured and bullied by white women.

No, they didn't lose it, they are offended by the concept, is my hypothesis. I've seen it in action. If you think logically, and incrementally step by step, they will go along with you. To a certain point. And then the wheels start turning in their head. They can see the conclusion being built, the foundation of a concept.

Since they start with a conclusion, they have to ignore anything that doesn't support their conclusion - what they WANT to be true. It's inverted.

It is an emotional based thought process. Not exclusive to females by any means, but it is *targeted* towards females. Propaganda always goes for the lizard brain, deeply rooted human emotions, not the higher order thinking. It's easier to manipulate people that way, including females, but increasingly males as well.

That's what "toxic masculinity" means when they refer to it as something that needs to be eradicated.

But then my county (of very few murders) just had another murder-suicide with dad as the perp yesterday. Dad wasn't as nuts b/c he left the kids alone...although he apparently shot mom in the chest and then himself dead center in the chest. Not usually the way a dude suicides, but I doubt the kid making the 911 call (b/c they were under 10) was lying...

I was waiting for her to say "and Karmelo only got half her GFM money!"

133 It is an emotional based thought process. Not exclusive to females by any means, but it is *targeted* towards females. Propaganda always goes for the lizard brain, deeply rooted human emotions, not the higher order thinking. It's easier to manipulate people that way, including females, but increasingly males as well.

That's what "toxic masculinity" means when they refer to it as something that needs to be eradicated.

1) You forgot quotes around "males".
2) Time for the Don Corleone quote: "Women and children can afford to be careless. Men can't."

There are emotion driven fools in both sexes. Women may be more prone to it, but by no means all.

It is your lot to live by example of doing right, being decent, and living a Godly life. That is the best revenge as it enrages the wicked and evil because it makes them recall that there is still some good in them that they have not quite yet extinguished.

Thus, the rage of cognitive dissonance.

Mass has an ass backwards approach to the defense of not guilty by reason of insanity. Something called the McHoul rule. Most states have some version of the old M'Naughten rule which requires the defendant to prove that they were insane (affirmative/justification defense) to such a degree that they could not know right from wrong. Hard test to pass. McHoul rule from the Model Penal Code and a stupid Mass Scotus decision, inverts the burden of proof. First, the defense has to meet relatively low burden of demonstrating past mental illness to the judge, then the STATE has the burden to show the defendant was sane enough at the time of the murders to comprehend the wrongness of their actions and were unable to control their actions. And the state has to prove that beyond a reasonable doubt.

In most M'Naughten states, the defendant has to prove insanity (because they admit they did the crime) using a clear and convincing standard of evidence that they were insane.

196 Having one black on the jury is consistent with Plymouth's demographics. It's about 10% black.

But three fucking female nurses? As I've been saying, a female nurse is probably the worst possible juror in this case.

Yet this jury had three of them. Unreal.

I'm becoming more convinced that the entire case was a LARPing sham that the prosecution never had any intention of winning.

Thank goodness for this one levelheaded man that would not be swayed by the fake white woman tears. I can only hope he is living life safely after being outed by his fellow jurors.

his race should have nothing to do with it, but it is telling about his gender. Women are expected for 40 years of their life to have crazy hormonal swings once a month and walk around like everything is fine in their brains and their bodies and to keep it all to themselves. Until someone knows what that feels like - I will quote the previously once great Kanye West - you can't tell me NOTHIN.

I knew he was a minority because of they way they talked about him. That "arrogant" description hit differently.

and now the journalist that did the very first interview with the jurors is calling people who criticize her or the other jurors “primates”.

I think jury nullification is legit, but I don't think he should've done it in this case, towards a guilty verdict. It gives me some pause to learn he was black considering how many more jurors are jumping to talk shit about him now, and how quickly they did so.

198 The important part of this morning's CBS interview of the female juror -

But (CBS morning show host Gayle King) was particularly interested in the racial demographics. 'One person of color. Was the person of color a woman or a man?' King asked.

Devlin replied: 'A man.' King repeated her response, 'a man,' once more before asking, 'Was the holdout juror a black man?'

'Yes,' Devlin said. Seemingly surprised by the answer, King doubled down on her question: 'A black man is the holdout juror?'

'Yes,' the juror said again. King gasped, then looked down, before saying in a softspoken voice: 'Woah. I have to sit with that for just a second.'

Why did you need to do that, Gayle? We here know the reason.

I had a girlfriend many, many years ago who was an interpreter for the deaf. She taught me some of ASL, a little I still remember. It's a cool way to covertly discuss things in a crowded room when you don't want to be overheard. Gestures like "bird hands" can be a shortcut to certain phrases, ideas, etc. If you're taught it.

The prosecutor in Mass gets unlimited challenges to be approved by the Judge (who remarkably seemed to be a staight shooter)....so I wonder if he actually did his job.

I blame Massachusetts' Scotus, their legislature, and their governors. That idiotic standard is designed to produce not guilty by reason of insanity for defendants that in most other states would be put in prison, even executed.

Kansas even has went further with a guilty but insane rule that should be adopted where even if you claim insanity, you get incarcerated in a mental hospital for a term rather than a short restful stay until released. Scotus blessed that statute about a decade or so ago.

They don't. I looked it up. Felony murder gives prosecution and defense twelve strikes each plus one more for each alternate juror seated.

Unlimited strikes for cause--that is where one side or the other motions that a particular juror should not be seated. Reasons are incapacity such as extreme age, blind, etc, barred by law like felons or non citizens, bias, or for bias. Usually for bias, the prosecutor is looking for those biased toward the defense and vice versa and the judge gets involved, sometimes even directly questioning the juror.

But a bias strike just because nurses are more liberal is not something a judge is likely to do. It is almost always based on the individual, not their sociology.

The other jurors have spent all week calling the lone male holdout an arrogant, uncooperative dummy who didn’t understand the law or follow the rules. Now we come to find out that they were talking about the only black guy in the room this whole time. Leftists have accidentally sided with 11 white bullies against a black man who stood up to them. Just an absolutely amazing twist. You couldn’t script it any better.

279 Sad story in the local newspaper -

A 31 years old woman pleads to manslaughter in OD death of her infant.

Early 2022, locally living, she contacted emergency responders for her baby. He was found unresponsive. Reportedly, he was unsettled in the days & nights before, and having respiratory issues. An autopsy listed cause of death undetermined.

With her baby's death, her life became more unanchored. May 22, 2025, she called 911 wishing to provide more information & a statement on the death of her son. She had been using heroin prior, found a bag in the bed sheets she shared with the child & thought he may have placed it in his mouth. A toxicology screen of the child was performed & confirmed fentanyl was in his system.

She was charged with third-degree murder, involuntary manslaughter, endangering the welfare of children, endangering another person, possession of an instrument of crime, possession of a controlled substance and use of drug paraphernalia.

In court it was revealed she used heroin & had also been diagnosed with schizoaffective effective disorder since age 15.

41 to 96 months in state prison +. She wants to take advantage of prison training programs.

312 220 I haven't seen anyone questioning whether the prosecutor on this case actually applied himself in juror selection process. In Mass. the prosecutor, obviously, has the opportunity to question potential jurors (within reason). And, let's face it. It's pretty easy to pick out the bias on the jurors we've seen so far.

The prosecutor in Mass gets unlimited challenges to be approved by the Judge (who remarkably seemed to be a staight shooter)....so I wonder if he actually did his job. The prosecutor, also, gets a limited number of "see yah, wouldn't want to be yah" removals, and I wonder if he actually used those.

Finally, at the next trial I can almost guarantee it will be tried by a female prosecutor.

I didn't push too hard but got a younger guy on my side and we got it down to manslaughter (it's a long story but it truly was an accident I think and the kid immediately turned himself in. the deceased was his friend)

336 This is prompting a debate over whether we want to criminalize mental illness.

It is a dangerous step to take, but I think as a society we've strayed too far away from it. We need to make it hard and limited to throw someone in an asylum against their will, but it has to be an option. And we need to be willing to find people guilty of things that they may not understand or have the mental capacity to defend.

I have never in my life yet heard a good defense for the "guilty but insane so we'll put them in a doctor's care" or the "we cannot try them, they are too crazy" argument like Iryna's killer. Over and over.

No, they did not already have her guilty of murder. That is part of the jury's job. The instructions from the judge would have included a list of things that they had to consider and one of them definitely would have been what constitutes the legal definition of murder in that state and whether or not she met it.

That determination is NOT something the judge would have done for them That is what a jury is for.

Engineers and scientists are seldom on juries for that reason and because they sometimes have problems with inferential evidence.

Heard much the same in the past and recently from colleagues - was about to test that theory this past week - called in to report for the first time - had a couple questions the judge asked I expected to have to respond to (Close relative in law enforcement? Yes - brother is an evidence technician. Close relative convicted of a crime? Yes - other brother did some time, stole a vehicle, missed a parole check-in) - if the former wouldn't have caused a strike, being an engineer/analyst at a major UARC probably would've done it.

369 I rewatched "Rashoman" last night and the parallels between it and the Clancy trial are there. In the film, four people (actually one and a medium) are witnesses to a rape and murder, and all tell a different story. In this Clancy thing, we have the jurors as witnesses to the entire process of courtroom "justice" and followed by deliberations in which they participated. The film shows the witnesses lying to feed their egos, protect their pride, and hide their shame. The jurors lied to themselves long ago, and fed their egos by doing their "sit downs" with sympathetic reporters.

THE MORNING RANT: EV Owners and Lessors Have a Problem - Heavily Depreciated EVs that Dealerships Won’t Take Off Their Hands at Any Price

The failed “EV Transition” has led to a widespread suspension of electric vehicle manufacturing in the United States. Ford has discontinued its flagship F150 ~~Conflagration~~ Lightning, and it also mothballed an all-new plant that was intended to manufacture that unwanted electric pickup. Volkswagen suspended production of its only American-built electric offering, and GM is cancelling or postponing most of its electric offerings too.

But the nightmare isn’t over yet. There is still a great financial reckoning to come, due to all the lithium-ion albatrosses pushed on consumers over the past few years. Those who financed the purchase of their new electric vehicle will likely be woefully “upside down” when it comes trade-in time, because they’ll owe much more to the finance company than a dealer will offer for it in trade. There’s a good chance a dealer will not make a trade-in offer on an EV at any price. For those EV customers who were put in leases, the manufacturers’ finance companies are about to take a bath when those vehicles go to auction and don’t bring anywhere near the amount of the contracted lease-end residual value.

Whether the original owner of the EV is an individual or a leasing company, they will likely face a financial bloodletting trying to make the car go away. Horror stories are mounting.

Because Audi dealers are struggling to sell their new “e-tron GT” electric vehicles - despite heavy manufacturer incentives and discounting - those dealers have little interest in purchasing used e-tron GTs that are coming off lease, and certainly not for the original lease-end value. So, Audi is offering to pay the current drivers $10,000 to stay in the leased car they’re currently driving, because sending the car to auction would result in a much larger loss.

“Audi Is Paying Lessees $10,000 To Keep the EVs They Already Have” [Car Scoops – 2/26/226]

A recent Audi BEV Lessee Buyout Option Incentive sent to dealerships on September 1, reveals that current e-tron GT lessees are being offered a $10,000 discount to purchase their vehicle at the end of the lease term.

Dealers would be paid a small stipend for handling the paperwork, but Audi loses out on the sale of a new vehicle. When manufacturers offer leasing specials, the intent is for a customer to surrender the vehicle at lease-end to the originating dealership, at which time he is both car-less and in the perfect place to buy a replacement vehicle from the same manufacturer. Instead, Audi is forgoing a vehicle sale and paying a potential repeat customer not to buy a new car.

Meanwhile...

“Porsche Taycan Owner Discovers the Brutal Reality of EV Depreciation: ‘I’m Left With a Car That’s Worthless’” [Yahoo Autos – 7/17/2026]

Lee Davey bought a new Porsche Taycan EV two years ago, paying more than $160,000. There is such a glut of unwanted used EVs that the dealer he bought it from will not take the electric Taycan back in trade at any price:

Ironically, the Porsche dealership he bought it from valued the Taycan at roughly $54,000 but still refused to buy it back, saying it was already overstocked with older Taycan models. Davey said this in the video: “I’m basically left with a car that’s worthless. Even the dealership does not want this car back.”

The financing arms of auto manufacturers are also sitting on a portfolio of soon-to-mature EV leases with a value not much greater than “worthless.” As I have been documenting, legacy automakers have lost tens of billions of dollars on their failed effort to become mass market EV manufacturers. Their problem is that there never was a mass market for EVs, nor could government regulators compel it into being. So, despite all the EV losses already booked, more massive losses are looming for the industry.

Per Experian, just about half (46%) of EVs sold in the United States in 2024 were leased. The good news for those customers is that as their leases mature, they can simply surrender the EV and go get another new car. The bad news for the manufacturers is that they will have to somehow find buyers for the impending glut of off-lease EVs. The supply and demand math will worsen the situation. There is already little demand from dealers for used EVs, and when this wave hits, the already awful auction price for used EVs will plummet even further:

“800,000 EVs Are About to Hit the Used Market; Falling resale values on returning lease vehicles may drive massive industry losses by 2028”

Leasing played a major role in boosting EV adoption in the United States over the past few years. Incentives, especially federal tax credits that applied more broadly to leased vehicles than purchases, helped to lower monthly outlays and drove car shoppers toward short-term leases. Now, those two- and three-year leases are beginning to expire, sending a wave of used EVs back into the market.
A three-year-old EV retained about 40 percent of its original value at auction by the end of 2025. Compare that to early 2022 when comparable vehicles held roughly 90 percent of their value, says Cox Automotive. Analysts say that difference could translate into losses of around $10,000 per vehicle on average, adding up to as much as $8 billion across the industry by 2028.

Legacy auto manufacturers lost money on the front-end when customers bought and leased their electric vehicle offerings, and now they’re looking at losing another $10,000 or so per unit when the customer’s EV lease matures. The capital of these auto companies is not unlimited. They cannot absorb these losses indefinitely, and there is no path to profitability with EVs. They would be wise to take their final financial hits on these off-lease EVs and then return to doing what they know how to do profitably – manufacture and sell gasoline-powered vehicles.

Other Stuff I’m Writing About

On a related topic, my latest piece at the The American Spectator has been published. “Volkswagen’s Electric Suicide Pact; Caught in an EV-induced doom loop, Volkswagen continues to invest in new EV boondoggles” discusses the existential crisis at Volkswagen thanks to its catastrophic EV commitment, and how with its future at stake, Volkswagen continues to invest in new EV boondoggles – even here in the states.

Unbowed by its EV failure in North America, VW continues to plow its precious capital into other U.S. electric boondoggles. Rivian is an EV startup company that planned to sell hundreds of thousands of units per year — its business plan depended on it. Instead, Rivian is struggling to sell a fraction of that volume, and it has lost more than $24 billion since going public less than 5 years ago. Inexplicably, Volkswagen has given Rivian a $6 billion lifeline, including $1 billion just a few months ago, while at the very same time VW was weighing which of its own models to cut and what plants to close.
Even more preposterous is the fact that Volkswagen is building yet another all-new American plant to build yet another all-new EV, a pickup truck this time.

This piece is not behind a paywall. I’d be honored if you’d give it a read.

Tesla is still the only company making money on EVs, in part because they actually offer things beyond just being an EV (notably their multi-camera dashcam and the self-driving stuff).

While sitting at DFW waiting for Trump to depart so the airport would open again, I saw more Teslas than any other EV by far.

28 I believe the biggest negative on EV value is the harsh fact that the batteries rarely last more than 10 years, and frequently less than that. Yet battery replacement often will cost more than the value of the car at the time, meaning it must be scrapped.

What value can there be in a vehicle which will have to be scrapped within 10 years or less, no matter how well one takes care of it? What would you pay for a 5 year old vehicle, knowing that it will go to the junkyard sometime within the next 5 years?

VW is fine. On track for $375 billion in revenue and over $13 billion in profit, and that includes prior write-offs and write-downs for EV losses.

I really really really wish I had VW's problems.

VW's 2026 results are consistent with prior years, and would have been higher but for the weakening Chinese market for non-Chinese vehicles.

Despite endless doomsaying about the auto industry and EV fallout and cratering demand and neon green dildos in tailpipes, the industry is overall doing fine, and VW is doing better than fine.

Ah, batteries. The fun part of the conversation.

With proper controls, the battery PACK can provide service for many thousands of cycles. Individual batteries in the pack, not so much.
On average, a managed pack will provide about 80 percent capacity even years later.

Which means the vehicle is hauling around dead weight 20 percent of a thousand lb pack is ...

Interestingly enough, despite Merz's initial red-faced umbrage at his electoral humiliation and his lukewarm endorsement of maintaining the cordon sanitaire that's kept the AfD at bay and from taking its rightful place in government so far, there seems to be a distinct lack of enthusiasm for enforcing it after Sunday's vote.

...Merz in particular seemed surprised at the Sachsen-Anhalt result. “We are all deeply shocked,” he said, “we did not expect it to happen like this.” This must raise serious questions about Merz’s information environment, given that the outcome of the Sunday vote has been eminently predictable for months. Merz further asked himself “how things could have come to this” and confided that he is “looking for the reasons within myself too” – acknowledging that his own controversies have been a constant theme in this year’s elections. As has become customary for failed politicians, Merz ultimately concluded that he needs to communicate better, but then upon realising that this is a shopworn cliché he added bizarrely that he must “try to (1 of 2)

For some reason the firewall against the AfD is no longer the flavour of the month within the Union. Angela Merkel, once its staunchest enforcer, just today said that “I didn’t come up with it and I don’t particularly like it either.” Boris Rhein, CDU Minister President of Hessen, has called the Brandmauer “the wrongest path,” declaring with newfound democratic sentiment that his party should “talk to everyone, talk about everything, build bridges to the centre and not push people beyond firewalls.” This shift in sentiment is to be expected, as Unioners realise that they and not the AfD are the ones whom the firewall will shut out of government.

78 There is nowhere close to enough electrical generating capacity in this country for more than a small fraction of cars and trucks on the road to be re-chargeables.

There is no widespread grid network sufficient to carry it, even if there were. Residential homes, businesses, and workplaces do not have the equipment to provide it, even if the grid network were there. There aren't charging stations sufficient, and on and on and on.

Re-chargeable cars makes sense for a small number of people, maybe, in temperate climates in particular who don't drive very far.

92 Or the Ford Explorer, when under certain conditions, would roll over when the FIRESTONE tires they came with failed and you jerked the wheel hard to one side
-----

The issue was actually Ford's fault. They specified an inadviseably low tire pressure, to keep the ride soft and smooth. There wasn't really anything wrong at all with the tires, per se.

Ford had a business relationship with Firestone going way back. Henry and Harvey (Firestone) used to go camping together.

That little episode ruined the business partnership Ford and Firestone had maintained for almost 100 years. Because some idiot thought the truck rode too harsh.

96 The Euros agreed and for a while were making bank. But all the while, the Chinese were stealing the Euro's tech and business models, copying it, and making it cheaper and better (in large part because of massive gov't subsidies).

The hunter is now the hunted. Sales of Chinese vehicles (almost all EV) have exploded in Europe and UK.

For every problem, there is a solution. In this case, tell China to keep their crappy cars - they won't be coming to Europe. Sure, that will result in retaliation against European car companies in China, but that market is dying anyway. Cut your losses, Europe!

FWIW, we have a early 90's D21 Hardbody 4x4. Works great when we need it and it has been in our family since it was new (MIL then to my wife). Same motor, great compression on it still, no emissions problems (now grandfathered in), three clutches over 360k miles.

On vast revenues, that is not a very good profit ratio and the trend analysis from analysts is not great going forward. VW is on track to shed another 50k jobs in Germany and the EVs are unlikely to attract American buyers except at a loss.

Especially in UK, the Chinese brands built a dealer network almost overnight.

It was like the Brits woke up one day and saw BYD and Geely dealerships all over the place.

BYD now sells more cars than Tesla.

2.8 percent return in 2025. VW is hoping with job cuts to raise that to about double. We shall see.

The average return on investment (ROI)—often measured via metrics like Return on Equity (ROE) or Return on Assets (ROA)—for traditional American auto manufacturers like General Motors and Ford generally fluctuates between 3% and 12%, though broad industry averages often skew lower or negative due to heavy EV and autonomous R&D spending

The first guy who hired me into the telecom industry back in the mid-90s drove a Fiero everyday, when he wasn't riding his totes tricked out Harley. That thing was like sitting on a skateboard with an engine, and it scared the crap out of me to ride in it on the freeway when John would pass semi-trucks.

Ironically, he died in a traffic accident about a year later when some clueless soccer mom pulled her minivan out into traffic right in front of him while he was on his Harley. He'd quit working for overseas contractors building factories in countries recovering from various wars, after getting blown up by a leftover mine in Namibia, and to get killed by a fucking soccer mom who didn't want to turn her head to look out the window?

Mid-Morning Art Thread: 25 Years Later

Falling Man
Richard Drew

It is an iconic photograph, and one that encapsulates the horror of September 11th and the 2,977 people who were murdered that day by Islam. And I use the word "murdered" very carefully. This man did not commit suicide in the conventional sense. He was presented with two awful choices, and I believe that he chose the option that gave him control over his death.

If you would like to read Kris's commentary about this photograph, here it is.

But there are other images that may be becoming more important: those that represent the West's response to the 1,400 year old war against it conducted by Islam.

This is Gaza, soon after the Arab savages rampaged through the Israeli border communities. This was the beginning of the Israeli response to Islamic barbarism, and it is an image that may need to be repeated thousands of times across the world by a united West if we are to defend 21st century Western civilization against the 7th century.

And...this is not to denigrate the man in the photo above; he made an awful choice, and I respect him for it, and pray that he is at peace. But remembering and solemnity and sadness should be only a part of our response, and a cold fury, as seen in the second photo must be included.

This man did not commit suicide in the conventional sense. He was presented with two awful choices, and I believe that he chose the option that gave him control over his death.

I have to believe this, in my own head just to make it 'better,' that those that made the decision to NOT die in a fiery torture and take that leap was that they felt they would black out from fear or some other form of unconsciousness and they would never really know when they hit the ground.

It is impossible for me to fathom what they were going through..... I do believe that God knew and understood their decision and showed them tremendous mercy.

23 The photographer took many photos of many jumpers. He helped identify someone’s wife. The husband knew what his wife was wearing and was able to identify it was her. Her body was never identified or recovered. And seeing that photo gave him closure.

26 I was working with an auditor from one of the big 5 firms a couple of years after 9/11. She was there - downtown NYC. As she described that day, watching people dive out of the towers, her facial expression changed. It went blank. Through that whole conversation. It was haunting, and I recall that conversation even today. I sure hope she found peace with those memories.

37 [Elton John] owns the biggest collection of 9/11 photographs in the world, some 2,000 in all, ranging from images made by amateur snappers on the ground to work by Magnum photojournalists. “I have The Falling Man [by Richard Drew],” he says, quietly. “It is one of the most beautiful and powerful and upsetting images ever. One side of the building in darkness, one side in light and this man falling in that perfect straight line, head first, out of the tower. It is the most beautiful photograph of the most painful, horrible thing. This is the power of photography, the dichotomy between tragedy and beauty. It makes you think about the thin line between death and life.”

38 There really is no difference between the nazis and the moslems. They dress differently and speak a different language but whenever you see a moslem or moslems simply picture them in brownshirts and swastika armbands as they are one and the same. The US government and media lie about it because they do not want to admit it and face the hard choice of eliminating them. So there is endless wars and "islam is a peaceful religion" nonsense.

September 12th.
Although it's been 25 years, one of my strongest memories was the overwhelming overnight change in the American culture.
I'm talking about the single word "prayer."
Suddenly, it was EVERYWHERE.
Media outlets who would ordinarily never mention such a thing used the word constantly. Newspapers (remember those?) printed it in headlines. You were forwarded emails about it. Businesses used the word in marquee sugns.
It lasted maybe a week, but suddenly and everywhere it was acceptable to mention prayer.

63 The photo shows an instant in time for one man. It is a powerful picture.

Yet it does not come close to giving the full story. Video of people falling from the upper floors of the North Tower is horrific and heartbreaking to watch. All of them were tumbling, many with arms and legs flailing. It is painful for me to watch their final moments on Earth. If you want to see some of the sheer horror of the Twin Towers attacks, seek out video of people falling from the upper floors of the North Tower.

Little of that is in US-produced news and documentary videos. Because of our culture of not wanting to see terrible deaths and the remains of the dead. You can see several videos of people falling from the North Tower, and a view of some of the broken bodies, in this utube copy of a BBC 2006 docu-drama titled 'Flight 11." Near the finish. May they rest in peace.

_________

"If suicide is committed with the intention of setting an example, especially to the young, it also takes on the gravity of scandal. Voluntary co-operation in suicide is contrary to the moral law.

"Grave psychological disturbances, anguish, or grave fear of hardship, suffering, or torture can diminish the responsibility of the one committing suicide.

"We should not despair of the eternal salvation of persons who have taken their own lives. By ways known to him alone, God can provide the opportunity for salutary repentance. The Church prays for persons who have taken their own lives."

A buddy of mine is a coroner. He sees death on a regular basis.

He says that he's seen bodies of people who were dying of agonizing conditions, yet when their time came, the only expression on their face was ultimate peace, as though the Lord came down and took it all away just before they passed.

I believe He could have given those people trapped in the Two Towers that same peace, knowing they had no other way out for them.

My 9/11 story is kind of weird because I was literally seeing it unfold through another's eyes.

At the time, I was performing an early morning root canal on a patient. We had a Tv in the ceiling for patients to watch and earphones for them to hear.
I was working on his tooth when his eyes suddenly popped open in alarm.

"Are you okay?" I said.

And he pointed a shaking finger at the ceiling.

The first plane had hit the Towers.

Well, I had to finish my job. I couldn't leave the poor guy half done, so I continued with the root canal.

Suddenly, his eyes popped open again and his head jerked in alarm and terror. He jabbed a finger at the ceiling. The second plane had struck the Towers.

It was clear we were under attack, but I had to continue because the root canal was a difficult one.
So, I just told him, "Please don't move around. If something happens, just let me know."

i finished the root canal but every once in a while he'd look at my eyes and point to the ceiling.

I finished the root canal in a reasonable amount of time...around the time it was clear that those poor people started jumping from the buildings.

We closed the office for the day and went home.

84 There is nothing I can add to the evaluation of the photo and what makes it so effective. But, like photos of the liberated Nazi concentration camps, it is impossible to separate the story from the image and the emotions it invokes. Such a simple image that still raises feelings of horror, grief, rage, and determination.

After meeting up with Mrs. JTB that day, which had been in doubt for a few terrifying hours, much of the next week passed in a blur with little time for emotion. We assisted in logistics for rescue, later recovery, efforts at the Pentagon.

89 Wikipedia, The Falling Man

Background, in part

"On Tuesday, September 11, 2001, four passenger airplanes were commandeered by 19 Al-Qaeda terrorists after takeoff. Two of these hijacked airliners, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, were intentionally crashed into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center complex in New York City, killing or trapping well over 1,300 people above the 91st floor of the North Tower and more than 600 above the 76th floor of the South.

That morning, an estimated 200 people were witnessed falling from the upper levels of the burning skyscrapers.[7][8] All but three came from the North Tower, where considerably more people were confined to a much smaller number of floors. Most of the people who fell from the World Trade Center deliberately jumped to their deaths to escape the smoke, flames, and extreme heat, in some places, estimated at over 2,000 °F (1,090 °C). A smaller percentage of the falling deaths were accidents caused by people losing their grip or being knocked off-balance near window ledges, or attempting to climb down to a lower

90 floor below the fire. Officials could not recover or identify the remains of those forced out of the towers due to the
conditions on the ground near the base of the building at the time, prior to their collapse. The New York City medical examiner's office said it does not classify them as "jumpers," explaining that a "jumper" is defined as someone who "goes to the office in the morning knowing that they will commit suicide," adding that the victims who fell from the towers did not want to die but "were forced out by the smoke and flames or blown out."[8] The medical examiner's office listed manner of death as homicide for all deaths associated with the 9/11 attacks.

Turned on the TV and forgot all about the beach.

Not sure quite how to say this, but things in Silicon Valley continued as normal for most of that day. It really wasn't until the government shut down the air space and flights were grounded did anyone really take note. That night was particularly eerie.

In my early adult years, having been raised Catholic, going through classes and receiving Communion and all, I still had questions and doubts. I remember heated discussions with my mother, a largely devout Catholic, about God and allah (PissBUH) and who was right or wrong in their faith.

While this time in my life was a bit of a struggle and my faith was poor, islham started attacking. I learned what a 'suicide bomber' was........I was exposed to what islham was and what it was willing to do.

My God is the one TRUE God and islham is a steaming pile of Devil shit. I owe it no quarter.

94 There really is no difference between the nazis and the moslems. They dress differently and speak a different language but whenever you see a moslem or moslems simply picture them in brownshirts and swastika armbands as they are one and the same.

It's generally covered up by our alleged education system but Hitler got the idea for the final solution from the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. So yes, Islam caused the Holocaust too.

They would even get pulled over say, by cops for speeding or whatever. Nothing can be done you see. Just let ‘em go about their business.

The book, "The Looming Tower: Al-Qaeda and the Road to 9/11," 2007, by Lawrence Wright, should be required reading for every high school junior or senior in the US. Sadly, few nowadays will have the attention span and open mind to comprehend it and get more than a chapter or two into it.

If you want a solid history of Al Qaeda, bin Laden, the planning of the attacks, and the failure by US counter-terrorism agencies to stop the attackers, I cannot recommend this book strongly enough.

But we've had this weird thing happen in the modern western world, at worst the response to terrorism is muted barely above police work only targeted at this immediately responsible and at worst we instead pay the terrorist country instead.

Its funny when Grand Fenweck comes up with this idea and much less so when the US is paying jihadi's families that are killed when attacking Americans...

135 On 9/11/01 I was living in a van in Orange County, CA.

[Although with a good and well-paying job, still paid a mortgage for my ex in Northern CA)-- and being a workaholic with no friends -- decided there was no point to paying another $1500/month for a studio apartment simply to sleep in.]

Being a talk radio junkie, I awoke before 6:00 am that morning and immediately turned on my CCrane (Solar and Hand-Crank-powered capable) CCRadio to the local L.A. station 640 AM KFI to listen to host Bill Handel (famous for his "Handel On The Law" nationally syndicated show).

He was discussing the breaking news that a plane -- which most assumed was a Cessna or the like similar to one which had flown into the Empire State Building decades before -- had crashed into one of the WTC Twin Towers.

Driving to the gym to workout and shower before going to work, I heard him announce -- as he was likely watching a television feed -- that ANOTHER plane had just flown into the second tower. Clearly an act of Terrorism and War.

Immediately went to the work office where the entire rest of the day we all watched the coverage on the office TV.

Now 25 years on, NYC has been conquered by Islamists.

Most of the 2026 cases cited (Kyle Bassinga GA, Juliana Nzita NC, To'Nea Miller FL, Justice James GA, Jerard Jackson MI, Raleigh 32yo NC, others) were officially ruled suicides with no evidence of foul play or any murderer.
Tasia Fortune (MS) is under homicide investigation; the sole person of interest is the Black father of one of her children. Demetrius Fleming (NC) remains open/equivocal with no suspect named. No cases have an identified non-Black murderer.

169 Take a moment and imagine you are a Muslim from some shithole country. Your imam tells you Islam is strong and the US and Europe are weak. But you live in a shithole so you have your doubts.

An NGO approaches you and offers you money to move to say France. They do all the paperwork for you, you just have to claim to be a refugee. And they promise $$$ when you get to France.

And they deliver. You get welfare which you see as the jizya your Imam told you the week Christians/atheists would pay you. Then you find out your neighbor, a fellow muslim "refugees" has been raping one of the white teenagers in your neighborhood. The police...don't charge him and in fact the police officers, who are Muslims, indulge themselves.

Again, your Imam back home told you that infidel girls deserve it and Allah will command their rape and...you see it personally

Of course you'd believe your Imam was right about everything because so far he has been.

I do remember one black guy that ran from a cop over a routine traffic stop and the cop shot him. That was a bad shoot. Officer McDonut, sorry, you gotta chase the guy down you can't just shoot him.

The Left claimed Bush should have cracked down on swarthy men in response to this and in the aftermath of the 2000 election, they would have quietly gone along with it.

In the late 90s, Bill Clinton was offered Osama Bin Laden by the government of Sudan. They wanted a trivial amount of money.

Bill Clinton said no because he didn't know what to do if he got Osama because a trial might not get a guilty verdict and the press would damn him for putting an innocent Muslim man on trial. So...he passed.

The obvious answer was this wasn't a police matter. You take Osama out to the desert, put a few holes in his head and leave his body for the vultures...

BOTH Clinton's new about OBL as far back in '92 in Mogadishu, because on the ground they heard Arabic rather than Somali.

BILL CLINTON couldn't tear his eyes away from the SuperBowl to give th kill shot on OBL -- and to shutdown the game so that he could do so elicited the answer "NO".

BILL CLINTON invited the parents of BlackHawk down to the WH and inform them "It was their own fault" that their sons were dead; when in fact Les Aspen refused the heavy armor they requested after reporting foreign fighters and their communiques.

Remember who did this:
"to leave now we would send a message to terrorists and other potential adversaries around the world that they can change our policies by killing our people. It would be open season on Americans."
-- Bill Clinton '93

To abandon this area now -- and to rely only on efforts against alQaeda from a distance -- would significantly hamper our ability to keep the pressure on al Qaeda, and create an UNACCEPTABLE RISK -- OBAMA'09

Thanks.

I should point out that a man who survived the 9/11 attacks is also a man who condemned his son for enlisting in the months after. Because he didn't want me to become a 'killer of brown people.'

My ultra-lefty dad was supported in this by my ultra-lefty mom.

Some people just can't be reached. I told them that everything I have or will ever have is a function of being lucky enough to have been born in the States. The one time in my life this country calls for help, I'll be damned if I ignore it.

Our relationship has continued to deteriorate since then, with her telling my kids Charlie Kirk deserved it. It's amazing to me how people can share an experience and come out of it so radically differently from each other.

237 The Tuskegee Institute used to issue an annual report of lynchings in the United States with the victim and circumstances. There were about 100 per year in the 20s and 30s. They stopped in 1968 because there had not been one in several years. Little did they know there would be a resurgence in 2026.

Why do people pretend politicians, especially ones like Hillary, believe what they say?

Of course she doesn't believe this -- she was part of the team that laid the groundwork for the FAKE Russia op.
As for the 10/7 stuff, no clue what her angle is on that. Maybe it's as simple as she is courting the DSA wing of the Dems.

The only thing Hillary believes in is herself.

As I commented in the Morning Report thread, I was working at a NYC television station back then. Along with all the craziness happening around me from an engineering standpoint, I was rolling tape, recording every single feed, not only from our remote trucks, but the other broadcast stations as well....WABC 7, WNBC 4 and WCBS channel 2. A number of years later, I finally digitized those tapes and burned a number of DVDs that contain all that raw, unedited footage. Every year, I take those DVDs and watch much of the chaos that unfolded that day. It seems so surreal now. The fact that we didn't strike back with all the force this country could have used, astounds me. A total act of war.

The Morning Report — 9/ 11 /26

Good morning kids. We are absolutely loaded with links and of course today being the 25th anniversary of 9/11 as is all too and painfully obvious the largest category far and away is about the events of that horrendous day. I'm sure we all remember where we were and what we were doing when we first heard the news. At the time, working as I was in both show business and the advertising industry, my time was divided between LA and NYC, and it was just after 6:00AM on the west coast when my father, of blessed memory, phoned me, and my first thought was "well here he is again calling to "use up his minutes before they run out" (remember those days?) until I heard him tell me to turn on the TV and that a plane had hit the World Trade Center. Yes, what he had said stunned me but it was the tone of his voice that was the shocker. That is until I did as he said and saw the smoking hole in the first tower. I remember physically taking a step backward trying to process what I was seeing. Clear blue sky and the smoldering hole in the facade. My first reaction was accident and thinking Cessna. That is until watching in abject horror as the second jumbo jet zoomed in and struck the second tower. Then I yelled the word "WAR."

Whether fate, Divine providence or dumb luck, I would've been right in the WTC plaza as the planes struck. I was in NYC exactly a week before, and had a routine I stuck to, which was eating breakfast with my folks and then taking the subway from Forest Hills down to the WTC, where I visited the Century 21 department store, J&R music world and then a cigar store before ambling up Broadway or Church street to grab some breakfast before either heading back to Queens or to my office. There but for the grace of God. I had returned to LA a few days before the attacks despite my parents wanting me to extend my stay so I could be with them for Rosh Hashanah, which was a week later on the 18th that year.

I was lucky as were a few other relatives and friends of mine who had business in or very near the WTC that morning but somehow were prevented from being among the victims. Not so a classmate of mine who died a horrible and needless death that day.

Kathleen Moran was a Brooklyn native. The second-born from a big Irish family, she often hosted the whole family for gatherings at her Bay Ridge apartment. In her backyard she tended a garden patch of tomatoes, zucchini and more, which she jestingly referred to as “her crops.” Kathleen made memories with her nieces and nephews at birthday parties and on trips to Disney World, and maintained a network of close friends who accompanied her on her travels, whether on weekend road trips to the beach or a week’s sojourn to Italy. After 9/11, Kathleen’s family found a jewelry box in her apartment containing a medley of small items precious to her. Her 1977 class ring represented her years at Midwood High School, where she sang and acted in school musicals. A gold broach with emerald stones spoke to her Irish heritage, the home country of her parents. There were also three Christmas ornaments, commemorating her travels around the world. These were only part of Kathleen’s much larger collection of distinctive ornaments, enough to fill multiple trees during the holiday season, according to her sister Bernadette.

May sweet Kathleen's memory and indeed all of the victims' be for a blessing.

Switching gears completely, lest we forget who and what perpetrated this, it was ISLAM. Unfortunately even as the wreckage and ruins in lower Manhattan, the Pentagon and Shanksville PA we, that is to say the powers that be not only forgot but did their best/worst and continue to do so in covering up for the evil beasts who perpetrated this and those who cheered and continue to cheer it on.

9/11 Was The Beginning Of A Religious War That We Lost. . . We thought religion had no real influence on peoples and cultures, so we failed to recognize the religious nature of the conflict... Today, it’s easy to see just how naive and shallow Ambrose’s analysis was. The idea that there would be no more major ideological conflicts, or that Western civilization had nothing to fear from competing cultures and peoples, was positively delusional.. . At the dawn of the 21st century, no one could possibly take religion seriously, or think that medieval religious disputes had any relevance in the post-Cold War world that was taking shape. Then 9/11 happened. But instead of shattering this delusion, great efforts were made to shore it up. This proved difficult (but not impossible) because the leaders of al-Qaida were obviously motivated by religious beliefs, and said so repeatedly.

I was comforted/heartened for perhaps a nanosecond or so when Dubya proclaimed in the bullhorn that the perpetrators would "hear from all of us," but then he declared that we were in a war on "Terror." Right then and there I knew we were screwed.

And as for the estimable John Daniel Davidson, 9/11 was not the beginning of a "religious war," As Islam has been at war with the Civilized world since its inception nearly 1500 years ago. It seeks the death of unbelievers in its quest to conquer the world in order to make it Islamic in its entirety. And the Shiite part of Islam believes that bringing about Armageddon will make that happen, with them at the top of the heap for all time. So, regardless of how you think President Trump is handling the war with Iran, the leading Shiite nation state, that he is actively doing whatever he can to prevent them from obtaining the nuclear weapons to bring about Armageddon is absolutely the right thing to do, higher gasoline prices for a while being an acceptable price to pay.

Switching gears yet again, I draw your attention to the lead photograph which was the view from my former apartment in NYC when my wife lived there before we met. It was taken not long before 9/11. And she was getting ready for work when the Towers were hit and collapsed. So on that day and for several weeks to follow she was breathing in the air. Now 25 years on, during treatment for what we think is an unrelated neurological issue, the doctors discovered scarring on her lung due to potential asbestos exposure. Oh joy oh bliss.

Anyway, that's all I've got the energy for on this terrible anniversary.

Have a good day. And God Bless all the victims and their families, as well as our first responders and the military for all their sacrifices on that day and in the wake of the attacks, from Iraq and Afghanistan all the way to Epic Fury.

Death to Islam and to those who are allied with it who seek our destruction. May we see all of them wiped out in our lifetimes, so that we may actually have a lifetime to live in freedom and in service of the Lord and our fellow human beings. Amen.

Have a great weekend.

Abruzzo was quadriplegic and used a power wheelchair. Everyone around him faced the same brutal fact: the only way out was down, and Abruzzo couldn't take the stairs... 10 Port Authority coworkers stayed. They were Michael Ambrosio, Peter Bitwinski, Phillip Caffrey, Richard Capriotti, Michael Curci, Michael Fabiano, Wilson Pacheco, Anthony Pecora, Gerald Simpkins, and Margaret Zoch.

“We’re squeezing and strangling them, and that pressure, coupled with the military pressure, we hope will get them to act more reasonably in terms of giving up their nuclear weapons program, which they have, up until this point, not been willing to do,” he said. “A lot of that is driven by the blockade, the economic blockade, because their economy is 90 percent dependent on oil.” McCormick said the next step is to sanction other countries who continue to do business with Iran.

Midterms are always about the incumbent prez, with voters usually expressing doubts and discontent — that’s why the “out” party almost always gains seats. What Republicans can do to counter those tendencies is pretty obvious: Remind voters of how very much the GOP has done right, fixing the messes left behind by [so-called quote-unquote] President Joe Biden and the hyperactive Democrat Congress of 2021-’23 — and of how extremely weird the Democrats remain.

The AfD has dismissed the EU’s potential actions as undemocratic, characterizing the idea as punishing the voters of Saxony-Anhalt. If the EU opts to freeze funds to the region or attempts to override state government decisions through financial pressure, this could increase hostility towards the EU and bolster support for the AfD. It is also possible that the EU goes ahead with defunding the region in order to slight President Donald J. Trump, who congratulated the AfD on their win earlier this week. “Wow!

I, too, was on the west coast that terrible morning; headed to work early around 6am. I worked near LAX. We actually started our first meeting of the day at 8am…. I’d heard a vague report on the radio about a plane hitting the WTC. Just a few minutes into our 8am meeting they decided our whole building had to be evacuated because it was close to LAX.

One thing I’ll never forget was the eerie silence that night; we lived close to LAX and were used to the constant sound of jets taking off and landing. Not that evening of 9/11… the airport was closed and the silence was deafening

In those early days I’d hear hallway chatter at work (when we went back the next day) about how the terrorists might’ve smuggled a nuke into LAX and would detonate it. In that moment it didn’t seem totally outlandish

Her Dad and I played golf the weekend before 9/11 and he, his wife, and we had dinner together on Sunday evening at my house, looking forward to the week ahead. Then he died in the collapse of the WTC. But he was no doubt looking down from heaven watching his youngest walk down the aisle on Saturday, side by side with her mother, and I'm sure he had a big cigar going and a giant smile.

But federal prosecutors admitted that they failed to tell federal Judge Jinsook Ohta about the man’s criminal history, which also includes a California arrest for allegedly attacking a vagrant with a machete.

So was this a "failure" by fed prosecutors, or more of the dirty "wink, wink" behavior that allows dangerous felons to be released from detention so they can once again terrorize Americans? There are so many traitors to the American people working at local, state, and fed positions, not only as judges, but as lawyers.

>>9/11 Was The Beginning Of A Religious War That We Lost. . . We thought religion had no real influence on peoples and cultures, so we failed to recognize the religious nature of the conflict...

So, so passively voiced. Just happened, huh?

NO. We were not allowed to say it was a religious war, despite so many of us understanding that the moment the second plane hit. We weren't beaten simply by islam, but our leaders and media who have played Eloi in the fave of the always marauding, murderous Morlock jihadis.

She hasn’t raped anyone or pushed any lies. If this keeps up, she’ll destroy CBS News.

Gee, a vicious killer from gang where uncooperative civilians are routinely murdered is just . . . released. Yeah, I'm sure it's simply because she didn't have enough info on the guy. Yeah, that's it.

Question: Since we've been constantly told we must accept a large portion of the population of countries such as Honduras because they need to escape the crime, why is it that we also actively accept the criminals the rest of them are fleeing from?

But I'm well and truly through with the lachrymose garment-rending on behalf of the denizens of El-Na'Yahrqi.

These remembrances should be moved to an American State that didn't spend the ensuing quarter-century after 9/11 deriding and undermining the war effort and then cap it off by throwing open its gates to the invaders and handing them the keys to the city. And it should be moved to a different date - perhaps 8/15, to reflect the shared loss of AMERICANS at the Fall of Kabul.

Let Caliph Osama bin Lenin have 9/11 for his victory laps, before his adoring dhimmi subjects. The rest of us can have a minor feast day celebrating the successful coup against Communism in Chile. We can cook up pastels-de-choclo with little cake decorations that look like Allende's bullet-shattered eyeglasses.

It’s something you never forget and it’s hard to explain. But every year, including today, I try to go and let a group of children hear a story and ask a lot of questions.

In past times after that I would hit the bourbon. Now I hit the Bible.

The explosion on Thursday, which sent shockwaves rippling across the region for miles, obliterated the major underground complex built by the Iran-backed terrorist organisation.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Thursday evening it had demolished the strategic Ali al-Taher ridge in southern Lebanon. It is understood 1,100 tons of explosives were used.

146 When I visited NYC in Oct. '98, I didn't think it was a dump. Far too crowded, and even then cab drivers were foreign, but (at the end of the Giuliani years) it was clean -- even the subway was not bad -- and seemed, in the areas I visited, more like the vision of You've Got Mail than the horror show I understand it's become.

I'd always wanted to see NYC. So much of my entertainment growing up had been set there -- TV shows like U.N.C.L.E., books like Stout's Nero Wolfe series and the Ellery Queen tales -- that I felt I knew it. I'm glad to have seen it before it began to slide.

159 9/11 was a demonstration about the reality of islam and muslims. It showed exactly what islam and muslims would do.
9/11 showed that islam and muslims are poison to every civilized society everywhere and have been throughout history.
That islam and muslims are an evil cult of hatred and intolerance, every single time.
A culture of misogyny, antisemitism, anti-Christian, anti-freedom, anti-liberty and pedophilia.
That islam and muslims are a cancer, a scourge to be excised everywhere and forever.
Nothing about any of that has changed except to become ever more violent and hateful.
Hollywood is too cowardly and dishonest to tell the truth about either islam or muslims.

That is the common, undeniable thread through this entire thing. It’s not imagined grievances and fairy tales about “Palestine”.

This

In the weeks after 9/11 the Wash Post spotlighted different people/groups killed in the attack.
The team at the Pentagon who was tracking bin Laden's activities (and other ME terrorists) had their offices directly hit on 9/11 and most of them died.

224 IMO

From Islam's point of view, 9/11 was a wildly successful operation. Thousands killed, giant buildings in one of the West's great cities demolished.

There was another win for the terrorist powers: the disruption of our American society. When those people and buildings crashed to the ground, that society was cracked open, and some ugly stuff has has come out in the years after. Call it balkanization, perhaps. We seem to have split into multiple opposing factions.

Exhibit A: Huma Abedin. She started working for Hillary Clinton, as an intern, while still a student a GW, while she was a treasurer (iirc) of the Muslim Students Association. Her father founded a newsletter, founded by a radical, terror-supporting sheik, that focuses on how muslims can subvert Western nations from within. Huma herself wrote and edited that newsletter at the same time she worked for Hillary, up until Hillary got the job as Sos.

Trump didn't just save us from Hillary as POTUS, but also the strong possibility that Abedin would have had a lead role (rumors of Sec. of State appointment) in her administration.

Not that there aren't others already embedded in our federal government, of course. . .

I scanned it to the 9/11 Museum and asked if it’s something they could use. I ended up gifting them the original and got a lifetime pass to the Museum.

349 I was working as a broadcast engineer at a NYC television station at the time. Our main transmitter was at the ESB, but we had a low power transmitter at Tower 2 at WTC. Usually, on Tuesdays, I would travel down to the WTC and do any maintainance required on the low power UHF transmitter. As luck would have it, some technical issues cropped at the studio that needed to be addressed, so I was running very late. Someone was watching over me that morning. My phone, in engineering was ringing constantly, calls from my wife, and many friends. The rest of the day was pure chaos. Once the towers fell, our transmitter, as well as one other station who also had their transmitter at Empire, were the only two still "on the air". So, our responsibility was to carry any news that our crews could transmit back to us. That entire day is still a complete blur. Two transmitter engineers on Tower 1 lost their lives that day. Trapped on the 110th floor. My heart sank when I saw that huge antenna mast begin to lean, then sink to the ground with the rest of the building. Our low power transmitter was on 110, in Tower 2....where I was supposed to be. Yes, I prayed that day. Alot.

I was in the field, and didn't see the attack until two days later when we finally got back to garrison.

I guess because I didn't see it happen live, there's some distance as far as my memories of that day are concerned.

All I knew is that I was going to war.

While there were no graphic images, it was mostly young boys in various stages of undress, standing for the camera.

It shook me to my core........

I'll go back over the weekend & listen again to RFK's speech from the convention last evening in spite of CNN's Fact Check of "uttered statements that were untrue, misleading or missing critical context," of course including the above noted speech. (RFK Jr.’s false claims on the pandemic, Trump’s record and more.)

I don't know about that.

So many good links above but I was especially pleased to see, "There were many heroes on those planes that day 15 years ago. IDF Veteran Danny Lewin, the first person killed on 9/11/2001." And to see his memorial stands proudly in Cambridge, MA! Honestly, I needed a reminder of his personal story of bravery on 9/11.

Will be revisiting the Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, PA soon.

25 years after 9/11, the Shanksville community honors the heroism of Flight 93's passengers and crew.

Looking back and forward with a theme, "The Next Generation." At some point they/we have to hand it off to the next generation.

Think about that.

378 [Elton John] owns the biggest collection of 9/11 photographs in the world, some 2,000 in all, ranging from images made by amateur snappers on the ground to work by Magnum photojournalists. “I have The Falling Man [by Richard Drew],” he says, quietly. “It is one of the most beautiful and powerful and upsetting images ever. One side of the building in darkness, one side in light and this man falling in that perfect straight line, head first, out of the tower. It is the most beautiful photograph of the most painful, horrible thing. This is the power of photography, the dichotomy between tragedy and beauty. It makes you think about the thin line between death and life.”

Daily Tech News 11 September 2026

Top Story

Twenty-five years. I was only four at the time, like the rest of us, but I remember the day.
The Exploration Company has raised $450 million in series C funding in an attempt to show that Europe is not irrelevant. (Ars Technica)

And to explore space, maybe.

Problem is they need to add three more zeroes to that number to make a dent. It's being billed as the "fastest growing space company in Europe", which is like being the most successful oyster farmer in Eromanga, population 98.

Tech News

AI has a 10% chance of killing all of us by the end of next week mostly by falling off a roof and landing face first on a rake so that we die of laughter. (The Register)

Copilot this time.
Anthropic says it has blocked attempts to build biological weapons. (New York Times) (archive site)

Anthropic says a lot of things. I am a paying customer; their product is a lot better than their PR.
"You are not seeing someone in a comic book kind of way say, 'Hey, I want to build a biological weapon to kill everybody,'" Jacob Klein, the head of threat intelligence at Anthropic, said in an interview. "It's an incredibly nuanced situation. They're saying things like 'But I don't want to cure cancer. I want to turn people into dinosaurs.'"
Don't we all, Jake. Don't we all.
Anthropic also detailed distillation campaigns by Alibaba, Moonshot AI and Deepseek. (Tech Crunch)

You are trying to kidnap what I have rightfully stolen, and I think it most ungentlemanly.

Also, you know who isn't blocking attempts to build a resistance to iocane powder?
HP has introduced its latest home computer. (Notebook Check)

Returned, the unaffordable RISC workstations of the late 90s have.
Deepseek beats Anthropic's Opus 5 on coding - where Opus 5 is actually good - at one 86th the cost. (WCCFTech)

Though if you're able to live within a plan and not burn infinite tokens through the API, Opus 5 can be one 20th the price that comparison assumes.
Speaking of which: Fixed the performance of my runtime. The interpreter is now as fast as Ruby, where before it needed the compiler to match that. The compiler averages around 3x faster. And because it has a rich set of builtins, using those really puts on the afterburners, with minor changes in code lifting it to 15x the performance of the Ruby interpreter.

Of course, Ruby now has a compiler of its own, which I haven't tested against.

Right now, integrating multiprecision maths into the core.

23 I just saw another comment by JM about comments being deleted even on the Lenovo Laptop.

This is consistent with being placed on the ban list (maybe IP ban?) by one of the COBs.

JM: Try turning off the router to your house for 5 to 15 minutes, then power it up and see if it gets you a new IP address, and see if that helps? (Your router may have grabbed an IP address that was already on the IP ban list, the last time it refreshed and got an address.)

That's the only theory I have. I may be completely wrong.

We tried weighing Stirling last night on the bathroom scale. Much hilarity ensued. Linda scooped him up in her arms and stepped on the scale, then let him go and stepped on it again.

After subtracting, we got *17* lbs. for him. That can't be right -- he was 15.5 at the vet two weeks ago. I probably misread where the little red line was hitting on the dial; it's not a digital scale.

38 @33/four seasons: My thoughts this morning are running along the lines of delivering three bunker busters to:

1. Masjid al-Haram (the the Great Mosque of Mecca)
2. The Prophet's Mosque in Medina
3. Al-Aqsa in Jerusalem (where the Temple Mount is).

Times would correspond exactly to the moments 25 years ago when the North and South towers, and the Pentagon were hit by the planes flown by the Muslim terrorists.

And then for good measure, drop a 20 megaton nuke on (2) and (1) (in that order) and at the exact times the two towers fell.

And those 5 times would be:

08:46 - North tower hit
09:03 - South tower hit
09:37 - Pentagon hit
09:59 - South tower collapses
10:28 - North tower collapses

Vengeful thoughts, indeed.

39 The ethanol-free gas I went to feed the Buick with yesterday had mushroomed to $4.19, while regular was $3.47, about the cheapest in town now. I was going to spring for the E0, since most regular gas is now $3.79-3.89. But above the pump was a notice, "May Contain Ethanol." Uh, I'm not gonna pay extra for ethanol free if it ain't ethanol free. Foolishly, I tried asking the clerk if he knew about this.

More than likely somebody from the Moslem world. Seems like nearly every gas station in town is owned, or staffed, by such people, surly, blank-eyed, and barely able to communicate in America's language.

60 The Exxon-branded convenience store/gas station I usually visit near my house is also staffed with surly and English-incompetent people. There, though, I can use my Exxon gas card at the pump and not have to interact with them. Their "ethanol free" gas, which I suspect is also laced with alcohol, has been at $3.69 for some time, even when the price of regular bumped up and bumped down. Either it's old gas; or it's got E10 in it, they get it cheaper than they can E0, and can offer it at the same price over a long period.

I'm reminded of the chain of stations in Kansas that was not labeling the premium they were selling at a discount as being E10 or E15. I reported them to the KS Department of Agriculture and heard back that they were being forced to label the stuff properly.

Several California newsrooms have been decimated in a brutal round of layoffs.

McClatchy, the media giant behind The Miami Herald and The Sacramento Bee, announced the severe cuts Thursday, with some newsrooms losing as much as 40% of their staff.

More than 90 journalists nationwide were affected, according to estimates from unions representing workers at various McClatchy-owned papers, Poynter reported.

One year ago today - we lost Charlie Kirk

From Turning Point USA

One year ago, our founder, our leader, and our friend, Charlie Kirk, was assassinated while doing what he had devoted his life to: standing before young Americans and challenging them to think, to speak, and to have the courage to stand for what they believe.
There are no words that can adequately describe what this past year has been like.
We have had to learn how to carry on without the person who was at the center of everything we do. We have celebrated milestones that Charlie should have been here to celebrate. We have stood on stages where his voice should have been heard. We have watched his children grow without their father there to see it. And we have felt the weight of his absence in ways that never seem to get easier.
For the people who knew and loved Charlie, September 10 will never simply be an anniversary. It is the day our lives were changed forever.
***
We miss him.
We grieve him.
And we will never forget him.
One year later, Turning Point remains committed to carrying forward the work Charlie began.
For Charlie. Always.

***

One year ago, we tragically lost a fearless patriot. A champion for freedom and for our country.

Charlie Kirk changed the course of American history. His courage, conviction, and love of country will never be forgotten. ❤️

Costa Rican man, 119, seeks recognition as world's oldest person

In a modest wooden home in Sardinal, about a 20-minute drive from Costa Rica's Pacific coast, Jose Flores spends his days napping, eating meals prepared by his granddaughter, and arm-wrestling with her.

As the validation process continues, Flores' family is awaiting an answer that Hellen Flores said would carry meaning beyond their own household.
"It would be a source of pride, ⁠both for the family and for the country," she said.

Fossilised dinosaur poo contains stunningly preserved feather

A piece of fossilised dinosaur poo contains one of the best-preserved feathers from the dinosaur age.
A palaeontologist found the feather by chance while looking for fish fossils.
Researchers said the discovery, published today in Current Biology, might provide clues about why today's birds are the only dinosaur group that survived mass extinction.
Lead author Jingmai O'Connor, associate curator of fossil reptiles at the Field Museum in Chicago, said there might be more hidden feathers inside fossilised faeces, known as coprolites.
"This is the first-ever feather in a coprolite … and it probably would not have been found if it wasn't for a lucky break," Dr O'Connor said.

Dino, are you here tonight? We'd love your insights on your ancestor's droppings!

Largest bluefin tuna ever caught on rod and reel snagged off San Diego coast

Good catch!
Fishermen in San Diego were stunned to catch a nearly 500-pound bluefin tuna this week — sending the local fishing community into a frenzy.
“We both got a look at it, and we didn’t even say anything,” Markus Medak of Shearwater Fishing, who snagged the prize catch with the help of another, unnamed fisherman, told Fox 5.
***
That’s the largest bluefin ever caught on rod and reel, according to Medak.
The record-breaking fish was brought to Tommy Gomes’s Tunaville Market and Grocery in Point Loma, which sells to local restaurants.
***
A representative for the restaurant said that every part will be used — even its spinal fluid, considered a delicacy in some cultures.

Spinal fluid? Umm, OK.

The Van Winkle Family Announces the 2026 Release of Its Annual Whiskey Collection

Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery and Buffalo Trace Distillery today announced that the 2026 Van Winkle Whiskey Collection is on its way, once again delivering one of American whiskey's most sought-after and closely watched annual releases.
Produced in highly limited quantities, the collection represents four generations of Van Winkle whiskey-making tradition and decades of patience, with six aged expressions ranging from ten to twenty-three years. The 2026 collection includes Old Rip Van Winkle Handmade Bourbon 10-Year-Old, Van Winkle Special Reserve Bourbon 12-Year-Old, Pappy Van Winkle’s Family Reserve Bourbon 15-Year-Old, Pappy Van Winkle’s Family Reserve Bourbon 20-Year-Old, Pappy Van Winkle’s Family Reserve Bourbon 23-Year-Old, and Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye 13-Year-Old.
***
The Van Winkle family’s legacy in American whiskey dates more than a century, beginning in the late 1800s when Julian P. “Pappy” Van Winkle, Sr. started his career with Louisville’s W.L. Weller & Sons before helping establish the Stitzel-Weller Distillery, which opened in 1935. His commitment to quality and carefully aged whiskey laid the foundation for the Van Winkle Collection, a celebrated family of bourbon and rye whiskeys that carries his name and enduring philosophy. In 2002, the Van Winkle family partnered with Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, where that legacy continues today through the careful crafting and aging of each expression.

MSRP for these bottles ranges from $170 - $500. If you happen to see one on the shelves, the price tags will likely be quite higher. I've seen these bottles in stores for as much as 5X their MSRP. Ridiculous!

24 RIP Charlie.

I don't think that's a great city to leave his statue as it will be vandalized.

The amount of hatred towards this man is amazing. He did nothing to these rabid freaks. He spoke the truth,which, I guess, is too much to handle.

I can't imagine having this much hatred towards anyone. On top of losing your young husband, leaving you with two babies, Erica Kirk has to endure pure hatred. I hope she shelters as much as she can from it. My husband's brother died at 33yrs and left a young widow with two little sons our boy's age. That was an unbelievable and hideous time for her and she did not have a world of hate aimed at her. God bless and protect his family.

Nice music. Thanks, Doof.

82 At the now-moved Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo, there was an oh-dark-thirty auction most mornings, which was dominated by the big bluefin, which would bring enormous sums. At one point visitors/tourists were allowed into the auction, then they closed it, now the market was moved (not sure where) from its prime spot on the river.

I never saw the auction but did get a photo of the whale on sale on one visit. That was different.

94 ARiK, recall that in the early 2000s, the 3 big "issues" that helped spark the only recall attempt in CA history (when Ahhnold took over) were an increase in the car registration rates, giving driver's licenses to illegals, and a particularly egregious looting of the taxpayers by the prison guards' union, all courtesy of Gray Davis (described, I think by long-time Dem leader in Sacramento Jesse Unruh, as "like a mashed-potato sandwich" - colorless and tasteless).

Today? 100 things 1,000 times worse don't even arouse notice, much less objection, in this pathetic politically dead place. Of course much of the country has degraded just as much or more in the intervening decades, otherwise national picture wouldn't look like it does.

102 nurse, when I worked for a big aerospace company based in Seattle (we were in OKC) we interacted quite a bit with a guy who lived in Stellacoom, I think. He sent us a salt water photo like yours showing the view from his back porch. A few years later, some of us were in Seattle and he invited us out to his place. What he left out of the shot was a big ass prison! We were disappointed.

In a modest wooden home in Sardinal, about a 20-minute drive from Costa Rica's Pacific coast, Jose Flores spends his days napping, eating meals prepared by his granddaughter, and arm-wrestling with her.
His family and official records indicate that he is 119 years old, which would make ‌him the world's oldest man, though international verification of his birth date is still pending as specialists review historical documents.

As the validation process continues, Flores' family is awaiting an answer that Hellen Flores said would carry meaning beyond their own household.
"It would be a source of pride, ⁠both for the family and for the country," she said.

"Jose Flores has a long tradition of existence, both in the family and the community at large."

One August we had two guys from the Green Bay IHL team show up for the Friday pick-up scrimmage. They and team mates had rented a beach/party house here for the week before training camp. Of course it was easy to instantly tell these guys were either pro or recent high-level collegiate. But in classic hockey culture fashion, they didn't take a shot during the scrimmage, only passing and play-making and (duh) raising the level of play.

I never knew much about Charlie directly before his death, I knew 'people quoted him' and memes. Still, a shame that some delusional idiot decided the way to leave his mark on the world was assassination of a good man.

168 I was too young to see the 1980 Miracle On Ice live, but I will always look fondly at working at the side hustle, watching the 2026 Gold Medal game between the USA and Canada.

It’s always great to see Canada get punked out of the gold medal in “their sport”.

I’d follow hockey more, but I just need a team to follow.

My future ex husband took me with his family to the most awesome Italian restaurant in Providence. I don’t remember the name.

>>I had the puttanesca. It was divine. So was the ravioli. My ex got veal parm. It was to die for. 12 of us at the table. We drank a LOT of wine.

If you ever find your way back out this way I'll take you for dinner at a new Itallian place that just opened in my little town. It's the 2nd place owned by 3 Italian guys from the Providence area. Italian and seafood and everything is incredible. Octous puttanesca is on the menu.

Really, everything is just outstanding.

Mary, I am afraid I have to tell you that your one-woman crusade to save the snowball bush to the side of the library main steps has come to naught. City employees chainsawed it down today, and it is a shame since your "Slam Powtry for the puertiy of the Viburnium" was so moving at the last Library board meeting, and I suspect you could have gone on for an hour if they hadn't called time and had the police throw you out when you refused to relinquish the microphone. I am tempted to complain for the way they tased you with only five warnings, even after you started screaming at them.

I asked, apparently the Library board has decided to "put in a shadbush or some sort of amelanchier that won't sprawl so much" so perhaps it won't blight the community after all.

Here's a snippet of a story on the link I posted above of Marines in California the morning of 9/11:

"I go to the next room and they had a TV, well at that point the first tower had been struck and my head mate, OOD and I see the second plane hit the second tower. At that point the 3 of us run up and down the cat walk slamming on doors and at this point we had all our desert gear already packed and one of the most beautiful things I saw was hundreds of marines throwing seabags over the 3rd floor balcony and half dressed running to formation to hop in the 5 tons to be taken to headquarters of our companies."

244 The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) Center has issued a warning to commercial vessels operating near the Strait of Hormuz after receiving a report that two vessels were struck by unknown projectiles approximately 4 nautical miles west of Khasab, Oman, with at least one vessel reportedly catching fire.

The incident occurred near the entrance to the Strait and close to the maritime route established through Omani waters for vessels seeking to transit outside the main Iranian shipping lanes

245 CNN reports that the U.S. has expanded intelligence and targeting support specifically for Saudi Arabia’s military campaign against the Iranian backed Houthis in Yemen. More than 100 U.S. military personnel are reportedly dedicated to that effort, with one U.S. official putting the number at roughly 200, operating as part of a newly established joint forces command

304 Clayton S. Wood, a minister, wrote something about Charlie Kirk that seemed similar to growth I saw in him, too.

"I remember Charlie first as an educator. His gift was persuasion, the willingness to stand in a crowd of people who disagreed with him and make his case anyway. But the Charlie I watched in his final years was not the same Charlie who started. Early on, there was a hunger in his debates to humiliate an opponent, to win the exchange and leave the other guy crushed. Much of that was happening when he was in his early twenties.
Somewhere along the way that hunger changed into something else. He became a deeply spiritual man who happened to also be political, rather than a political man who happened to also be spiritual. And the change showed. He started arguing like a man who actually wanted the person across from him to be saved, not just beaten. That shift, from crushing opponents to caring about them, is the real story of Charlie Kirk's last years."

I really didn't appreciate that change until he was gone.

Right after Trump took office I mansplained right here that the Democrats were about to "move on" from the trannies we were talking about every single day, and even to an extent the illegals, as they switched over miraculously to their new best friends, radical islam.

It sounds obvious now in hindsight but trust me it wasn't quite as obvious 20 months ago.

In truth I spend much of my time here (when I'm not making fart jokes) sounding like a mental patient, the penalty of a mind that isn't quite right I guess. I've been telling the good people here what's in store for us since 2008, and will likely continue doing so.

I have a few theories but the winning one is this - Democrats per usual think the "brown people" are stupid. They think that money and naked power will rule all, that the barbarians will fall in line - *or* equally likely, that by the time the real nastiness occurs they (said same Democrats) will be long dead. They don't give a shit what happens when they're gone.

Leftists are so enamored of themselves they have no idea what it's like to believe in something - a real thing that actually exists - beyond yourself - which is why they underestimate islam, and why islamists and leftists BOTH wildly underestimate Christians.

See the "Kirkaversary" thread.

"Although the statue was "unveiled" in Times Square, there's no way the communist terrorist Zohran Mamdani will allow it to actually stand in NYC. You can bring anything to a street and unveil it, that doesn't mean the government will let you keep it there." --Ace

Even Supergirl got panned and that movie couldn't possibly be so much worse than the claptrap and tripe they have been cheering and forcing on us for a decade. And there's more but I forgot it now.

Re: The Hollywood meme above, I was reading that if Paramount bails one of the places they're considering moving to is Texas. First, please no. Fuck no. Second, Hollywood really is dead, isn't it? The music business has been centered in Nashville for years now, and Hollywood doesn't produce much of anything in Hollywood anymore. Shit, up until recently Marvel was filming in Georgia until they picked up and moved to Britain. All these hugely expensive movies are made wherever the most generous subsidies are offered (watch the very end credits and see all the different countries). Hell, celebrities don't even live there anymore. The Palisades fire burned any stragglers right out.

Careful about the selection bias on that one. The emotions you're allowed to see are carefully curated to make you believe that. There was a growing body of the commentariat online beginning to open up about how messed up their lives got after blindly following the trans cult that had taken over education and medicine. Then.... crickets.

They didn't all just say "nevermind" and go away. You simply don't see them anymore.

Hungry Babies Cafe

The Arctic
by Norris Niman

When an elephants wants to play with you, you're going to just have to play with him. You literally do not have a choice.

Traditional Nepalese goat-balancing.

Dancing robot.

Yay, I did it!

Baby's first steps.

On to some Adult Babies:

Oh no, someone stole my bag! This actually sucks. I could see this happening to me.

Stupid people cheer as a nearby volcano blows its top, apparently believing that because the volcano is on a screen and because nothing on a screen can hurt you, they are perfectly safe.

Idiocracy wasn't supposed to be a user's manual.

YouTubers suffer disasters as they make "unboxing" videos. One big problem I see: Instead of laying the product on the desk and shooting from above while they open it, these Influencer-Types are determined to get their own faces into the shot, which results in them having at least one fewer hand than necessary.

There's some of this going on, but a couple of Soyboy Beta Cucks do it too.

Steve Inman:

Entitled Karen attempts a simple grab-and-run robbery at a gun store, and quickly learns why women should not compete with men in track or Greco-Roman wrestling.

Drunk Karen keeps f***ing around until the woman she's laying hands on lets her find out.

On Rumble: Karens Gone Wild.

More on Rumble: Knuckle sandwich buffet.

Also on Rumble: Content warning for this compilation of vids of civiians fighting back against criminals, because in many cases, shooting ensues and some criminals look like they're dead.

Finally, another Rumble compilation of criminals finding out that law abiding citizens have guns too, and they're usually better shots.

32 "Houston, we've had a problem" was the actual verbiage on 13, first uttered by Jack Swigert most likely. Lovell reiterated a few seconds later. "Roger 13, we're lookin' at it" was the reply. And then they spent a half hour on the ground wondering if maybe it wasn't "an instrumentation problem" which wasn't necessarily wrong, but they did waste a lot of time chasing phantoms. I don't think anybody on board the spacecraft thought it was an instrumentation problem.

When I was in college my first credit card (which I still have) was an AT&T Universal Card. It was credit card, but also a PHONE card, with a code on it and the phone number you called to get a discount on long distance and - most importantly - pay phones. So if you found yourself on the road and needing to call home after a breakdown, you got a discount!

What a world we lost.

This is why I'm not bothered: the Trump administration is aiming for the dove's eye.

I think it was in The Aeneid, the Roman Odyssey analogue by Virgil, that there was an archery contest using a living dove with its foot tied to a ribbon. The first contestant hit the ribbon by accident, so the dove got away; and two others loosed their arrows at it in flight, also missing. The judge interrogated the contestants about what they aiming for: one the dove, one its head, and one its eye. The last one got the laurel wreath.

Trump and his Cabinet are playing hard for the midterms, and strict compliance with all court orders helps with the muddled middle, so there's not even a ghost of a kernel of truth to the Left's lies about his lawlessness. But all these issues will be resolved long before the 2028 election, which is the championship game that will decide if America collapses into permanent one-party socialist rule now or gets a 4-year reprieve.

The nurse said with a sigh "mental health can affect anyone" meaning that's why Clancy killed her kids.

It is no accident that the more we have "scienced" behavior rather than using traditional morality and the allure of sin to explain human behavior, we have gotten more pagan.

Much of "mental health" these days is explaining away sinful and evil behavior to avoid negative outcomes. "She's just mentally ill," but the more therapists we create, the crazier society becomes. Talk about escalating failure.

This is a spiritual problem, not a pseudo-scientific one.

Wrong. You're a century too late. I'm talking about the crisis of faith in the West.

The craving for a "scientific" approach to problems and the elevation of the secular over the spiritual are what is at work here. Once you declare religion off limits, secular materialist morality takes over, and sees people as mere objects, animals like any other. So a mother killing her children is no big deal, because a human is the same as a dog or a cat - except of course that laws against animal cruelty are now far more strict that those against harming humans. If she'd drowned puppies she'd have been without a single sympathizer.

On the contrary, they did it because they had lost faith. Instead of striving for the eternal, they became fixated on the temporal. The material became more important than the spiritual.

Grant money, government funding, empire building - all material considerations. It's still going on - American bishops telling illegals they no longer have to go to Mass, that they do not need the sacraments because the risk of deportation is worse than the loss of their souls.

Meanwhile every Mass in Africa could be your last. No dispensations. Souls are more important. Happily the Boomer bishops are on their way out, but it will take a while to clean up that particular mess.

Secular governments have a marvelous and unbeaten record in killing, torturing and starving people to death. That's because there is no such thing as secular because all people believe in something. The point of secularism to to categorically disqualify Christianity as a source of moral instruction, substituting anything else.

And that's how a mother can kill her children in cold blood and people justify it.

To paraphrase Mark Twain, If I knew it sounded like that I would have never tried swearing at all.

The nurse said with a sigh "mental health can affect anyone" meaning that's why Clancy killed her kids.

More sick women including the awful Oprah...we can't live with these women, or at least I can't.

By Kowtowing to the Senate Filibuster rule... a rule which can be rewritten with a simple Majority vote...

And even going back to the OLD Filibuster rule, where they had to speak on the floor to hold the filibuster... would have allowed the majority of the Conservative agenda to move forward... yet... they did not.

Hell, they would not even fire the Parliamentarian... who is CLEARLY Partisan.

Yes, we all remember when Trump 1.0 had the trifecta and Paul Ryan, who had his big cool Fiscal Blue Print ready to go torched it and tanked the majority.

But there has been a multi-year process of the GOPe being shown the door. Four years ago, the Michigan GOP was a mess because of the infighting and we got wrecked as a result (also cheating). But now it's the Dems who are at each other's throats. A fundamental realignment is taking place, and that bodes well for the future.

So if you found yourself on the road and needing to call home after a breakdown, you got a discount!

227 We all have our stories of 9/11. And it all comes back, every detail, 25yrs later.

Never in a billion years did I think NYC would fall to the likes of Mandingo for a mayor.

I saw the second plane hit as I was on the phone with my sister-in-law out West. Their uncle lived in a penthouse two blocks from the WTC and I was telling her to turn her tv on when the second jet hit. I remember saying, "This is war" vs a small plane and called my husband, whose work was with defense contracts.

If you've seen the French documentary of 9/11, his cousin is the NYPD Fire Chief...who watched his brother go up the tower to his death. Those guys only made it to the 36th floor, I think, before the collapse.

He had many cousins in the NYFD and NYPD at the time from a huge Catholic family. Second generation NYFD and NYPD.

Four were missing but unknown condition for 48hrs and survived, thank God. All good men and proud of what they did. His grandfather was a NYPD who had a Rockaway Beach detail on horseback.

Our ED/Trauma Center in FL were notified to expect injured. They never came and it is nothing short of a miracle that 15k survived...as there were 17k people in both towers that day.

One of our neighbors hosted a neighborhood dinner/game night, where we met another neighbor who lives on the next block. When we introduced ourselves, her first statement was "I am not a believer" like it was something she really needed us to know right off the bat. Uh. Okay.

Of course, it didn't take long to become evident that she wasn't a believer. It was so obvious that she didn't really need to say anything.

Agree. No fear. Ever. I was on one of the first planes days after flights resumed. Empty planes for a month. I was ready & not going down without fighting. No one on the empty flights were & we communicated with looks.

Once at 10k feet from landing, a nitwit's cell phone rang (during the cell phone bomb stuff). Hispanic guy. The flight attendant asked whose & we all pointed to him. The man across the aisle from me & my heavy travel purse had already mentally agreed to take him down. Not kidding. I flew twice a month for a decade then.

The ONLY time I was ever worried was a short flight to St. Louis on SW. Two profusely sweating islams were passing a tiny book between them vs the empty middle seat. Never looking up or at the flight attendant. Useless spring breakers behind me & my husband was trying to read their book. I never took my eyes off them. Had a red headband appeared they were going to be in a fight.

Federal Appeals Court Keeps Stay on Trump's Ballot-Checking Order While Supreme Court Dithers; Supreme Court Refuses to Allow Missouri to Use Its Redrawn Maps

I thought this foreign judge had already been overturned by the Supreme Court?

Did she once again ignore the Supreme Court and impose her stay despite the Supreme Court just overruling her last stay?

I'm not sure. But she did re-impose her stay, and a three-judge appeals court panel -- made up entirely of Biden appointees -- refused to lift the stay.

What they're doing is delaying this as long as possible so that they can then claim "It will cause chaos to implement this policy at this late date, there's just not enough time to implement it properly."

An appeals court on Thursday upheld a block on President Donald Trump's executive order limiting mail voting, a decision that comes as the Supreme Court considers the same case and states have already started sending out ballots for the high-stakes midterm elections.
The three-judge panel refused to lift a preliminary injunction against the order issued last week by U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani. It prohibits the U.S. Postal Service from implementing Trump's directive. The Postal Service has said it would not deliver ballots from states that did not pre-clear their envelope design with the federal government and submit a list of voters to an online portal, which has yet to be activated.
Election officials warn that it's impossible to comply with those terms, especially with the first mail ballots already being sent out in Alabama, North Carolina and Wisconsin.

The panel of three judges nominated by former President Joe Biden agreed with the plaintiffs that the president does not have the power to regulate states' election policy.
"Appellants have not made a strong showing that the district court erred in determining that the Final Rule is likely unlawful," they wrote, a reference to a rule published by the Postal Service to implement Trump's order.
The panel wrote that the Trump administration had done little to dispel arguments by many election officials that the changes would bring "chaos and widespread disenfranchisement."
...

The government also hasn't shown evidence of past fraud to justify the restrictions, the judges said.

LOL, sure.

The scumbags of the Supreme Court have once again given Democrats a hand and refused to allow the people of Missouri to change their congressional maps.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday declined for the second time to intervene in a dispute over redistricting maps in Missouri.
The high court ruling follows a federal judge in Missouri on Tuesday temporarily blocked the state from using its 2022 congressional districts in the midterms. That ruling came just moments after the Supreme Court let stand a decision from the Missouri Supreme Court ordering Missouri Secretary of State Denny Hoskins to use the 2022 map.
An anti-gerrymandering group, People Not Politicians, on Wednesday asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a lower court's order from Tuesday night, mandating Missouri use a GOP redistricting map.
The Supreme Court's decision Thursday appears to be the end of the push to use the 2025 redistricting map, according to the Associated Press.

Sorry for the thin post. I'm bushed.

10 This news report is terribly written. A Federal Judge put in a stay to require the new districts to be used. If the Supremes did not intervene, then the new layout should be used.

If they did overrule the Federal judge, that would not be a second refusal to intervene.

[Insert dithering for several months. Then...)

"Oh, look a bunch of gays have already gotten married, now that we temporarily allowed it. As a result, gay marriage is a pre-existing right that they already have, so you're not allowed to take it away. Election nullified."

That's what the Missouri Supreme court ordered, yes.

Then Kavanaugh declined to intervene, but a lower court judge did and ordered that the new maps be used.

The Missouri Supreme court wanted a hearing to find the Election officials in contempt, and Missouri appealed to the judge to stop the hearing. That's about where my info ends.

There were many words and expletives but it mostly boiled down to the Peter principle. Good lawyers tend to remain lawyers.

SCOTUS decided to not intervene in a different lawsuit because the current judgement rendered the previous decision by the MO SC null and void. In Navy terms this entire mess has been OBE (overtaken by events).

To reiterate: he wants to win the game, not the war.

The game is hearts and minds and soft shit and letting the tyrants look like the tyrants they are.

It's trivial to just say fuck everything and start killing people, but that's not the solution he's going for. You could make the argument that there is no stopping the irrational hatred of a communist without killing them. You can also make the argument that you don't need to stop them if you just squeeze them out of relevance by sustained societal pressure and mean girl meme-y bullshit over time.

Another facet of your pet idea:

The vast majority of people actually don't mind, and may prefer being lorded over by unelected Communist Usurpers.

1/3rd of the people during the American Revolution were on breaking ties with King George, 1/3rd wanted to stay with England, and the rest didn't care either way.

Most people do not consider America their home, rather an Economic Opportunity Zone, and there is very little practical love for Freedom and Liberty. I would suggest that the majority of the past two generations don't even have Freedom and Liberty in their vocabulary and wouldn't know how to internally express it, let alone risk their Nihilistic narcissistic lives to securing it.

Leftists Celebrate "Kirkaversary" and Call for Additional Murders

Absolute low-class scumbag demons.

A TREND seeming to be celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk has taken over the internet days before the first anniversary of his assassination on Thursday.
From "twerk for Kirk" to "what are we wearing for the first Kirkversary?" dozens of social media posts have been making jokes about marking the day the Turning Point USA founder was killed in front of hundreds of witnesses.
...
People have used the term across several platforms, including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, and Reddit, with one post under the page No Stupid Questions reading, "What are you doing for the first Kirkaversary on 9/10?"
"I don't know if this is a thing for people that applaud that guy's killing or mourn it, but I think it sucks either way," one Reddit user wrote in the comments of the now-deleted post.
A self-described Portland, Oregon, tattoo artist shared on social media that they were offering "$50 neck tattoos" with "the exact placement of the kirkhole."
...

...
While many are sharing posts about it, with one even calling Wednesday "Kirkmas eve," others are expressing outrage.
"These demons are gearing up to celebrate Charlie Kirk's assassination, calling it 'Kirkaversary,'" one person wrote on X. "Murder is basically a Leftist policy at this point."
Another X user said they feel it is overshadowing World Suicide Prevention Day, which is observed annually on September 10.
...
"If you're celebrating 'Kirkaversary' then you are part of the problem," another chimed in.
"I don't give two sh**s what side you're on, if you celebrate a man's death just because you disagree with him, then you need mental help. Because making fun of someone's death is not ok at all, it's just evil."

"Evan loves worf," a radical left-wing account on X, posted an AI-generated video of Kirk that mocked his assassination. Far-left media pundit Taylor Lorenz, although she did not use the term "Kirkaversary," shared a post from Kirk that he wrote in 2014 which said, "Did I just get shot by an AR-15? Feels like it."
...
One woman posted a video to TikTok of her dancing to her "playlist" that she said she made in preparation for her "kirkaversary party."
Another far-left woman posted a TikTok where she made a "Kirkaversary basket" that included "Charlie's blood," an "aborted fetus," as well as "toy guys."

A statue of Charlie Kirk was unveiled in Times Square.

Charlie Kirk statue bound for NY's Times Square as sculptor defies threats ahead of unveiling

'It's a monument definitely to Charlie, but it's even a monument to freedom of speech,' sculptor tells Fox News Digital

Artist Sergio Furnari reveals the inspiration behind his $100,000 Charlie Kirk statue ahead of its unveiling in New York City's Times Square on the anniversary of Kirk's assassination.
An Italian-born sculpture artist is set to unveil a six-figure tribute to Charlie Kirk in the heart of New York City this week -- a move that he hopes will spark dialogue rather than division.
Sergio Furnari was still in bed when his daughter came home with the news that Kirk had been assassinated at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University on Sept. 10, 2025.
"It took me a couple of seconds to connect," Furnari told Fox News Digital. "And then I kind of was, I would say, saddened by it."
Within weeks, Furnari -- who gained attention for his 40-foot sculpture of athlete Cristiano Ronaldo -- was fielding calls suggesting he create a tribute to Kirk.
"I was like, 'No way, I cannot get involved with politics,'" Furnari said. "But I [saw] how Erika [Kirk] got treated, including the parents of Charlie, and that's what I think became my catalyzer[sic]."

Although the statue was "unveiled" in Times Square, there's no way the communist terrorist Zohran Mamdani will allow it to actually stand in NYC. You can bring anything to a street and unveil it, that doesn't mean the government will let you keep it there.

As if this couldn't get worse, a taxpayer-supported "academic" not only celebrated "Kirkiversary," but said it would be "the funniest thing" for someone to also kill Nick Shirley today.

Will Rogers once observed that "Everything is funny, as long as it's happening to somebody else." No one ever personified Rogers' rule as much as University of California, Irvine instructor Matt Goldman, who cracked everyone up this week by joking about celebrating the anniversary of the assassination of Charlie Kirk by alluding to the possible assassination of independent journalist Nick Shirley.
Today is the anniversary of the murder of Kirk. In anticipation, Goldman posted a picture of Shirley with the line "Someone can do the funniest thing just before the Kirkiversary." It was a response to an Instagram post by the Harvard Republican Club promoting a speech by Shirley.
...
After the murder of a UnitedHealthcare CEO in 2024, Goldman allegedly posted a photo of the "Super Mario" character Luigi putting a gun to someone's head with the statement "Let's not pretend as if America isn't the greatest country on earth."
In another Instagram post, Goldman allegedly wrote, "Lmao abolish ICE. only good ICE agent is a dead one."
Goldman also teaches at Chapman University and specializes in "social justice rhetoric and community-centered composition."
It has become common in higher education and on campuses to laugh and even celebrate the murder of Kirk. Recently, socialist Hasan Piker led a sing-a-long with hundreds mocking his death.
Hate-spewing influencers like Jennifer Welch have even justified his assassination. Protesters regularly reenact his murder, and this week at Georgetown and the University of South Carolina students are celebrating "Kirkiversary" with "Kirk Look-a-Like" competitions.
...
The most unnerving aspect of this latest controversy is not that Goldman is making jokes about assassinating conservatives, but that many in academia find it uproariously funny.

— Missy in So Cal 𝄞𝄢 🇺🇸 (@MissyIsMaga) September 9, 2026

From last year, shortly after a gay furry leftist murdered Kirk:

Nick Freitas
@NickJFreitas
I am told that as a state representative this is the moment where I'm supposed to express my heartfelt condolences and then stand in solidarity with those on the other side of the aisle as we condemn political violence and stand unified as one people.
But we aren't "one people" are we?
The truth is we haven't been for some time now, and there is really no point in pretending anymore, if there ever was.
We are two very different peoples. We may occupy the same piece of geography, but that is where the similarities seem to abruptly end.
I convinced myself for a long time that whenever the left called me a racist, a bigot, a sexist, a fascist, a "threat to democracy" for even the most innocent of disagreements, that it was simply hyperbolic rhetoric done for effect.
And now the "effect" is a widow and two orphaned children, because the left couldn't bear the thought of a peaceful man debating them and winning.
I don't think they realize it yet, but murdering Charlie is going to be remembered as the day where we finally woke up to what this fight really is.
It's not a civil dispute among fellow countrymen. It's a war between diametrically opposed worldviews which cannot peacefully coexist with one another. One side will win, and one side will lose.
Charlie tried to win that fight through argumentation, through discussion, through peaceful resolution of differences.
And the other side murdered him.
Not because he was "extreme" or "inciting violence" or any other hyperbolic slur they hurled at him. They murdered him because he was effective. Because he was unafraid. Because he inspired others and made them feel like they had a voice, that they were not alone. And he did it at the very institutions which have fomented so much hatred toward conservatives.
I don't want to "stand in solidarity" with the other side of the aisle. I want to defeat you. I want to defeat the godless ideology that kills babies in the womb, sterilizes confused children, turns our cities into cesspools of degeneracy and lawlessness...and that murdered Charlie Kirk.
Social media is aflame right now with leftist celebration of Charlie's death.
I wonder if any among them understand what has just happened. If there is a Yamamoto somewhere in their midst warning, that all they have done is awoken a sleeping giant.
I doubt it. I think they gave up such introspection and self-awareness long ago.
I don't know exactly what will happen next. I just know that it won't be the same as what has happened in the past.
There will be thoughts and prayers...Charlie would have wanted prayers. Not for himself but for those left behind and for the country that he loved.
But then there will be a reckoning.
My Christian faith requires me to love my enemies and pray for those who curse me. It does not require me to stand idly by in the midst of savagery and barbarism...quite the opposite.
So every time I feel tired, every time I feel discouraged or overwhelmed, I am going to watch the video of a good man being murdered in Utah...I will force myself to watch it...and then I will return to the work of destroying the evil ideology responsible for that and so much more.
Rest with God Charlie, your fight is over.
Ours is just beginning.

But instead all they do is clap for a fool who will spend decades in prison for the crime they're cheering. They're willing to cheer on those dumb enough to commit crimes on their behalf but they're not going to sacrifice anything themselves.

But .. this way, by making a literal anniversary out of it, these ghouls keep his murder by a rabid commie creep — and thus by extension, his life and work — in the public eye. There are a lot of LIV on our side who could benefit to be reminded.

Plus, it shows what a steaming pile of leper vermin these people are. Even center-left will be repulsed. Again: LIV.

Rather like the SS blood group tattoos that the Allies used to identify SS assholes after capture. If you were SS captured by the Soviets or the French, you'd usually get a bullet in the face before they bothered to search your twitching body. The Brits and Americans would separate you and hold you for trial, then hang you about a year later. So the SS started shooting themselves in the armpit to obliterate the tattoo, which just meant that anyone with an armpit wound was assumed to be SS.

There is absolutely nothing odd about that. Look at so many movie tropes where some evil mastermind gets randos to commit crimes against the mastermind's enemies:

Manuchrian Candidate, Saw Series, Se7en, Arlington Road, Eagle Eye, Phone Booth, Spiral, Joker, Kingsman: The Secret Service, The Game, Black Mirror, The Following, The Dark Knight, Wanted, ...

The Left has been telling us for generations that their goal is have other people do the wet work while they sit back in marvel at their abilities to manipulate people at will.

Its a flex to manipulate people to engage in evil. Romans 1 ends with that observation.

I watched lots of Charlie videos, and the only time I ever saw him light into someone was when Christofascists got hateful towards gays. Charlie literally yelled "Get out!" at them. "You're not MAGA!" They were saying gays were hateful in the sight of God -- can't remember the exact crazy rants, but Charlie shut them down. Only time I saw him do that.

61 I judge the political temperature by the light of burning buildings.

In June, it was like a wall switch had been flipped to 'off'. The riots tapered off, the arson subsided, the confrontations with law enforcement were no longer newsworthy. The rent-a-mobs took a siesta. Today, Talarico repudiates every DSA position he so happily chirped during the primary campaign.

The Dems made a boo boo. Their Kirk snarling reveals a hatred that political common-sense cannot suppress. A voter staring into the abyss and who is appalled by the Marxist bloodlust will not vote for these people. What follows the rejection, God knows.

That's whistling past the graveyard.

It's time to break this country up, let the different factions entrench, and the chips fall where they may.

Remaining in a political unit with these people and under the control of their leadership is suicidal.

I know this is an opinion few want to hear, and I'll get roasted for it like usual. Don't care. It's time for people to start seriously discussing and agitating for dissolution of the Union while there's still even a vanishingly small hope of pulling it off.

Regular democratic order isn't close to strong enough to contain the forces at play here.

They mean to slaughter us, they aren't hiding it anymore, and every single enforcement arm of our government supports them.

It's a very dangerous situation, it's real, and blathering about who wins the next legislative soap opera sweepstakes isn't going to go an inch toward resolving it.

71 Mrs. Bill Clinton, come on down! Her proximity to the presidency conferred unique abilities, almost like a superpower, really. I mean, Osmosis. But so many people weren't ready for a Vagina-American as president. Most. Qualified. Ever.

Because you knuckle-dragging mouth breathers out in flyover Jesus-Land just wouldn't vote for her because "she's a woman". That's it. No other reason is possible nor entertained.

108 On a hobby forum discussion board, where some discussion is allowed (getting rare) someone mentioned about the extremism in the news and internet.

"What are you watching?" I asked. Then he started bitching, "you've got to be kidding, blah blah blah Charlie Kirk"

"Oh really, what about Charlie Kirk?" So he started in with Charlie being a "racist". So I asked him, please provide direct quotes from Charlie that are racist. Not something somebody else said about him, or claimed he said something. Direct quotes from primary sources.

What you'll find with these folks is they are unable to process information critically. They are told Charlie Kirk (was) a racist. And that's all there is to it.

This guy promised to go dig some stuff up. Strangely enough, he couldn't find any. But he was gobsmacked I wasn't having any of his shit.

I went on to point out it was rhetoric like this, calling him a nazi or a racist, that gave the green light for someone to kill him. That's how this shit works. They dont' call you a nazi because they think you are a nazi, they call you a nazi so they can kill you.

127 Charlie Kirk was one of the most effective evangelists for conservatism in general, and Trump in particular, among a demographic that the Right had not quite found a way to effectively reach. Of the people most responsible for getting Trump reelected, Kirk would be up there with Musk and Trump himself as the Ones We Could Not Spare.

When he was killed last year, it would have been too churlish - even for the Left and the MSM - to celebrate taking that piece off the board right after his assassination. Give it a year, however, and they think it's all OK now.

Left-Wing UK Government Pushes Forward With Plan to House Over 1,250 "Migrants" Next to a Town With Only 350 Inhabitants

So the "migrants" will outnumber the actual citizens by 3 to 1.

And some are claiming the government is lying, and plans to settle over 3,500 "migrants" in this tiny town.

Wonderful.

Home Office minister Anna Turley has said the government is sticking with plans to accommodate asylum-seekers on former military bases despite protests from local residents.
She told the BBC the government's priority was to ensure asylum-seekers were looked after in a "secure" and "appropriate" place.
That included disused Ministry of Defence properties because they had on-site facilities and were "more contained," she added.
But campaigners in areas earmarked for asylum centres have said small communities with limited infrastructure would not be able to cope with large numbers of people.
There have been protests in Piddington, Oxfordshire, over plans to house more than 1,000 asylum seekers at a site near the village.

That's a lie. They intend to settle 3,150 "migrants" there.

Hope you enjoy gang rape, women of Piddington!

Mike Nixon, the vice-chairman of Piddington Parish Council, said there was a "huge amount of concern and worry" among residents and that an asylum centre would have a "dramatic effect" on the way they lived their lives.
The proposal has prompted Piddington to hold a symbolic independence referendum, asking its 400 or so residents if they want to remain part of the UK.
Nixon said: "We're still very frustrated. Andy Burnham did say that he's willing to listen, but we've had no formal contact. No consultation, nothing from the Home Office.
"We felt that the only way of making our views felt was to say 'well if we're not going to be listened to, what's the point of being a part of the country?'"

A representative from Reform says this talk of 1,250 "migrants" is another leftwing lie.

The real number planned, he says, is more than 3,500.

Which would give "migrants" a 10-to-1 advantage over the invaded natives.

Reform UK's Zia Yusuf has blasted "lying Labour" after it emerged the Home Office had carried out assessments for migrants at a former MoD site, which would have outnumbered villagers 10 to one. Publicly available documents show an Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) risk assessment stating that "the proposed scheme" relates to "accommodation for 3,510 service users" at the ex-military Bicester Site A storage facility.

The Home Office denies this, but admits... well, maybe there was a prior plan to settle 3,510 migrants next to this town of 350, but we assure you, that plan is no longer operative and we surely won't make it operative in the future.

The shocking figure discovered by worried villagers of neighbouring Piddington, in Oxfordshire, has been refuted by the Home Office, which said it was based on an "outdated estimate" and there was no plan to increase the official figure of 1,256 male migrants they were seeking to put in the base.

Uh-huh.

But you give me your word you won't c*** in my mouth, right?

All right, so long as you promised.

🇬🇧‼️🚨 BROTHEL TO SAVE A VILLAGE?
The UK government wants to put 1250 single male migrants into a facility that borders a small village with 350 people.
Piddington has a small population with 65% being women or children. So for every woman and kid, 9 single male migrants will be there.
Now everyone ask the question "what will the men do?" And they cynically demand a "brothel" so the villagers will be safe.
Kinda crazy that everyone knows it's a bad idea.
So the suggested safety concept is to give the asylum seekers prostitutes so they don't hurt the villagers? That by itself is a crazy place to be.
Also that means, Brits pay their taxes so refugees can be housed and then British taxes would pay for prostitutes for these men ... work hard folks, the prostitutes need their money.

That's a good point at the end -- these poor migrants won't be able to pay the government-provided prostitutes. The taxpayers will have to pay for the migrants' sexual gratification, to keep a lid on rapes.

Such a Tory solution. I think she means this as an attack on the settlement plans, but I'm not sure, because the Tories opened the floodgates for immigration after promising to reduce it.

Does no one grasp that by letting in tens and tens of thousands of single (military-aged) men -- many of whom are criminals fleeing their home countries due to rape and murder charges -- you're severely straining the social fabric and guaranteeing, and accepting, hundreds of additional rapes per year?

🚨NEWS: Villagers in Piddington are holding a referendum to leave the UK

This comes after they were told over a thousand migrants will be living near them soon outnumbering them by at least 3 to 1

69 The UK is far ahead of us down the Fabian socialist route.

Winston Churchill was fighting against the kind of socialist nonsense, that Trump is facing now, in his 1945 campaign, but the war was over and the people wanted socialism, so they picked Attlee and 'New Jerusalem'.

Winston came back and beat Attlee in 1951 and served as PM again until 1955.

But it's really been a constant lurch to the modern progressive left since the 90s and Tony Blair after Thatcher and John Major for most of the prior two decades.

I've forgotten my military history. Maybe someone around here knows. What's the generally accepted ratio of troops required to execute a siege? Is it 3:1?
Posted by: Bilwis - Wizard of Clwyd at September 10, 2026 04:38 PM (r7+Q7)

If memory serves 3:1 was the US Army standard for a successful attack against troops in the defense (probably assuming minimal fortifications like foxholes and hasty trenches). No clue for full-on sieges. But with a siege, you really don't want to assault the walls if possible. You cut off avenues of escape and resupply/reinforcement and starve out the defenders. Or launch dead bodies over the walls with your handy-dandy Acme Bio-Warfare Trebuchet.

3:1 is the odds for a successful attack. The amount you need for a siege is more dependent on blocking all the ways in and out for the garrison.

There is a potential here for a catalyst to occur. A catalyst that spreads and gets very bloody.

In the interim, burglary, rape, vandalism, and massive littering will be the norm. Family dogs will disappear (not eaten, but killed). Fights internally, and externally. That says nothing for the overall flavor of the village being overrun, the inevitable Mosque that will go up after acquiring an historic church using Government funds.

I once had a VERY cynical story idea where Satan realized that the damned were being introduced to the horrors of Hell, and they'd shrug and say "This isn't as bad as I thought". So he'd send demons up to earth to observe the Humans for ideas.... and was appalled to find out that the things humans would do to each other were infinitely more evil than anything he and his demonic minions could come up with.

The besiegers can dig in themselves and can make themselves relatively safe from a sortie by the garrison. If there are relieving armies in the area then you need a covering force to watch for an attempt by the outside force to break the seige.

One of Napoleon's campaigns in Italy had a phase where he was besieging Mantua and he drove off one relief army, herded another one into the fortress and re-sieged them both.

166 Across the United States, including Pennsylvania, motels and hotels have become central to the intersection of the affordable housing crisis & 'immigration.'

Self-Funded "Hidden Homelessness" (Out of Pocket)
For undocumented individuals who are unhoused, paying cash for a low-cost motel room is a common, desperate survival strategy. They cannot pass standard background checks, do not qualify for federal rental assistance, and often lack a Social Security number. Budget motels often accept cash and do not run rigorous credit or background checks, making them a temporary refuge.

Federal & Municipal Programs: When you hear about unhoused or recently arrived migrants staying in hotels and motels on the news, it is almost always regarding government-funded emergency shelter programs.

Large "sanctuary" hubs have utilized millions in federal (FEMA) and municipal funds to contract entire hotels to shelter influxes of unhoused migrant families.
---
For example, hotels, motels near the airport that have been packed with unhoused immigrants (and/or parolees) at least since C19.

They can walk through the local boroughs and towns, have their kids in local schools, etc.

I like that movie. I would give it two stars out of a four-star system: it's competently assembled as a theatrical production, A/V product, and narrative, and that was the limit of its apparent ambition. It's a flick, not art, and not pretending otherwise.

Well, over time, without even rewatching it, my appreciation has grown. Maybe it should be 2.5 stars. It smoothly gives some instruction on the basics of the American criminal justice system. The very best part is the well-integrated argument for why you have a right to say nothing to the police without a lawyer present, and why you should avail yourself of that right, *especially* if you have done nothing wrong.

That is a difficulty thing to communicate, and now you can just say, "Oh, just watch My Cousin Vinny and see if you still feel the same way about it." And it's not a bad rec anyway.

Its perfectly cromulent theory. Its well proven that providing influx of migrant males increases the need for security services in the area. Migrant males are capable of fulfilling those jobs, once they learn a smattering of english. We should have a robust security service of self policing migrants in place in 12 to 16 weeks. We'll put them on the constabulary obviously.

Grounded in the Stars | Times Square Arts
29 April – 14 June, 2025
NYC, USA

With Grounded in the Stars, Price reimagines both the monument and monumentality in Times Square, one of the world’s most iconic public spaces. A fictionalised character constructed from images, observations, and open calls spanning between Los Angeles and London, the young woman depicted in Grounded in the Stars carries familiar qualities, from her stance and countenance to her everyday clothing. Through scale, materiality, and posture, Grounded in the Stars disrupts traditional ideas around what defines a triumphant figure and challenges who should be rendered immortal through monumentalisation. In a culture that increasingly encourages a faster pace, Grounded in the Stars is an introspective meditation on humanity. Price’s work offers viewers a unique opportunity to experience Times Square in a new light...

AI Overview

There are an estimated 1.5 to 3 million military-age undocumented men living in the United States, based on general demographic breakdowns of the overall unauthorized population.
Population Estimates, Total Undocumented Population: Estimates place the total unauthorized immigrant population in the U.S. roughly between 11 and 14 million people.
Demographic studies show that undocumented populations skew heavily toward working-age adults, with men aged 18 to 39 making up roughly 35% of the total undocumented population. Broadening the definition of "military age" to ages 18 to 45 yields an estimated range of 1.5 million to 3 million men.
