The Morning Report — 10/16 /26
A University of Wyoming student was arrested after police say she tried to poison a colleague, then attempted to flee to China when officers questioned her. Aili Wang, 32, was questioned by campus police after surveillance cameras set up by a coworker experiencing medical symptoms allegedly caught her rinsing his mug with liquid from her own cup on Oct. 1, according to a University of Wyoming police affidavit, which added that she was seen on camera “taking photos and manipulating notebooks.” Wang didn’t get along with the coworker, who wasn’t named in court documents. Surveillance footage allegedly showed Wang searching through the victim’s desk; the victim specialized in disease treatment technology, work similar to what she had done in China. . . Now you may think this is just some sort of bizarre thing that one crazy person did. But there’s been a pattern of such incidents all involving foreign researchers and students involved in the sciences on college campuses. . . . . . There’s some obvious patterns here. . .Professional rivalry likely plays a role. China is very academically competitive and while the vast majority of students aren’t poisoning people, clearly some are, while others understand that such behaviors exist. Call it ‘cultural differences’. Or something else to be aware of.And then we have these — poison pen letters.
I for one it's not personal, but it's high-level Chi-Com intrigue and sabotage. Considering what American Universities have been doing to the minds of young people for decades, this is almost a nothing-burger in comparison. And, thank you Harry Truman for not letting MacArthur storm across the Yalu River, nor nuking Beijing while we had the chance.
“The FBI and U.S. Postal Inspection Service are investigating a series of suspicious mailings sent to various addresses nationwide, including Secretary of State offices and their related election offices,” an FBI spokesperson told Fox News. “Some of the letters contained an unknown substance and we are working closely with our law enforcement partners to respond to each incident.” The notice included an image of one of the envelopes. The return addresses indicate the letters came from the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) with the address the organization lists on its membership forms: 75 Maiden Lane in New York City.By any means necessary, we must have paradise on earth!
If you went to public school any time after 2000, you may not have even taken a history class. If you did, it’s highly unlikely that the lefties who taught you covered how many Soviet citizens died under Josef Stalin. Under Stalin, roughly 1.7 million Soviet citizens died in gulags from 1930 to 1953. That doesn’t include the roughly 5 million to 7 million who died from famine as a result of socialist policies. Yale historian Timothy Snyder has estimated that Stalin’s regime deliberately murdered about 6 million Soviet citizens. . . . . . As leftists often tell us any time we point out the failures of socialism, “That’s because it’s never been tried the right way before.” Let’s see whether the leader of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) got it right. Mao Zedong’s kill numbers are from the low “tens of millions” to upward of 80 million. All were his own people. No one can get a very accurate count for how many he killed, because the best possible sources were killed. As with Russia, Mao’s weapon of choice was famine – letting people starve to death.Historians say that under Mao, his people suffered from the deadliest famine in recorded history. They blame “collectivization,” falsified food production data and reports, suppression (censorship) of accurate information, and general mismanagement. . . What none of them see coming is that when socialism fails, and it always does, the leaders already know whom to blame: conservatives and Republicans, all because they resisted the socialist wave and made it difficult to actually execute socialism the right way.The embrace of Bernie Sanders, Mamdani, El-Sayed and all the rest by far too many of our young people and considering the saga of American academia for over 60 years many many more who should be old enough to know better but of course don't. It's been said probably in every election since '64 if not before, but this one and '28 could be lights out forever if either or both go south. At least the Democrats of yore were better at hiding who and what they were/are way back when, or that's how I seem to remember things. Nowadays the freak flags are flying in the breeze. And right out front and high is the flag of ISLAM! On these and all the rest I bid you all to have a great weekend.

- From gas prices to Lindsay Clancy, the left is out of control.
The frenzied, disordered American left
- As leftists often tell us any time we point out the failures of socialism, “That’s because it’s never been tried the right way before.”...The people behind the White House website got it right. Socialism kills. It kills intentionally, and it kills unintentionally. Either way, when socialist leaders do things that end up killing millions, one thing that never changes is that they don’t care. They don’t care that it happened. They don’t care who died. They don’t care about the lies or empty promises they made to secure power. And so, when the common people start to drop dead because of failed socialist policies, and leaders make no real attempt to keep their promises, those same psychopaths just look the other way. Young Americans who make up Generation Z cannot comprehend that the socialists they love and support would ever not care about them. After all, they promised a better world. They promised that once capitalism is defeated, America would become a utopia.

Not after they spent a decade engaged in blatant lawfare — first by attempting to annul the 2016 election of Donald Trump by concocting one lurid conspiracy theory after the next, and then by trying to stop him from running for the presidency in 2024. When you spend your time stripping away norms, you can’t expect the other side to unilaterally disarm.
Hypocrite Democrats say ‘no one is above the law’ — except for Bro-Fo Omar

They're not understanding that fine point; it shows us that for all their chanting abort it, they are clueless about how actual democracy (small d) and rule of law actually work.

Back in the good old days when government schools started transitioning from History to Civics (to eventually Activism) that benchmark was 20 million.
For decades, Mao's Great Leap Forward was also around 200 million.
Apparently tens of millions of people got better as Communism became to be viewed more favorably in the West.

Sad news on the job front - the position that fit so well and I felt like a sure fit, is 'closed due to a change in business needs'.
Still got one that I've interviewed for in the 'not declined yet' pool, the part time position the client is still getting their ducks in a row, and some other possibilities that recruiters have reached out about that would be good fits...
Best I can figure, God wants me to stay put physically speaking? I dunno.

Six months ago, my attitude was I didn’t really care about the midterms that much. I was going to vote of course but didn’t much care how they went one way or the other because the GOP is dog shit. But mea culpa I’ve changed my mind… the Dems are so foul and so crazy, I’d rather have the dogshit GOP than the crazy commies. And I don’t know but maybe the polling op is working on me but it looks like a freaking disaster is looming to me. Talafreako winning is a nightmare scenario and it seems possible. How can Texas go from Trump by 14 two years ago (more than his margin in FL) to electing a satanic freak?? Can you tell I need to calm down? Heh… no laughing matter though

Talarico is nuttier than Kamala, if that's possible.
Cruz was running against a mixed race ex-NFL player who starred at Baylor.

Yes, you do. Talarico will not win in Texas and early voting starts Monday which will prove it. And our own Dave in Fla has been posting early voting records on his X stream. There is no blue wave. In fact, early voting patterns are not helpful to the dems at all.

========
Turnout is low, below 2022, so far. Democrats rush out on the first day of early voting and get a big lead which degrades over time because they run through their dedicated partisans quickly while Republicans are steadier in their early voting habits.
Saw this in OH. Seeing it in GA. Even in VA (VA is going to be a center of whatever blue wave there is because Trump has destroyed the NOVA economy, but even there, the advantage is reducing over time).
First day of early voting in NC was yesterday, and Dems came out to a strong start. Will it follow the pattern we're seeing in the rest of the states where they crash in turnout soon after? Probably.
But, remember, the idea of the polls being wrong is just insane. They're always right. Even when they all say Susan Collins is going to lose in 2020, there's no way that she wins.

I was just reading up on how that Ship deorbit and catch will likely work. Safety is the big thing. You don't want a big honking hulk of metal coming down over a populated area out of control.
How you avoid that is, well, rocket science indeed. If things go awry, you can blow up, flight termination. But you need to do that up high, so the pieces will burn up. If get too low, blowing it up would be even worse than letting it crash.

It will be on a 30 degree or so inclination. When launched that will be on the down leg (descending node arc). If they came back on that down leg, the deorbit burn and all that would be over the continental US, coming NW to SE.
So, they stay up there long enough to allow Erf to rotate about 1/2 turn underneath, so that it will be coming back in the ascending, up-leg arc. That will put the critical deorbit and reentry fireball over the Pacific. It will just have to cross over Mexico, aiming for the Gulf. If something goes south, they'll head for a crash in the Gulf.
Only if all goes perfectly well will that steer and light up the engines to maneuver back to Starbase.
If something goes wrong during the final terminal phase, big boom at the tower. They will not blow it up, just let 'er crash. And nobody will be close enough for any danger...
This is some wild stuff.

Neural Networks Are Already Clean
The cause of polysemanticity in early model organisms wasn’t superposition, but several ordinary, mostly fixable issues. We can now understand most neurons in models up to trillions of parameters, and think the outlook for mechanistic interpretability may be far better than we thought.

A halo product is something that isn't there to be the real flagship that's driving the revenue, but instead to be the ultra-cool item that people really lust after, associate that with the brand, then buy one of the lower end models.

Neural Networks Are Already Clean
The cause of polysemanticity in early model organisms wasn’t superposition, but several ordinary, mostly fixable issues. We can now understand most neurons in models up to trillions of parameters, and think the outlook for mechanistic interpretability may be far better than we thought.

We just had the cyber security exam including metasploit, metasploitable, setoolkit, 2 stenography programs, Wireshark, rsa, hashing, pki for for the signatures AND certificates, sql injection, xss, and even manually deciding a block cypher.
That's the exam after 3 hour lectures that sounded like a guy reading a dictionary, expecting total recall of the SQL commands we were told about 3 months ago, covered in the same week as JavaScript and php.
3 questions were about things i didn't have in my lecture notes, they were touched on and moved on from that quick.
Everyone i spoke to was walking out and complaining of lack of time to answer all the questions.
But still the masochist in me finds it kind of fun.
I should have just stayed on the forklift.

But you just know his mind is already locked on the next obvious progression: "Can we use gravity against gravity itself? Can we make an anti-grav thruster system? What kind of power would that take? What's the first step, and what's blocking us? Let's work on solving that first and let's design some experiments..."

Thursday Overnight Open Thread - October 15, 2026 [scampydog]
Ronco refined its marketing and distribution techniques with its second televised product, the "Chop-O-Matic." Produced by Popeil Brothers, this "food chopper with rotating blades" had been peddled by Ron Popeil on the fair circuit since the late 1950s. Not only was the commercial for this device longer, at five minutes, but Ronco also made this its first mail-order product. Delighted with the Chop-O-Matic's success, Sam Popeil invented and manufactured the Dial-O-Matic and what would become Ronco's first blockbuster, the Veg-O-Matic. Ron Popeil's television ad fueled the sale of over nine million units for $50 million worth of these rather primitive food processors.
The Department of War mandated the universities conduct a review of their foreign partnerships following its updates to a list of "foreign institutions engaging in problematic activities." Reports were due at the beginning of this school year.
The American Association of University Professors challenged the Department of War's audit along with the American Federation of Teachers in August.Of course they challenged. That's what commies do. People who are deeply invested in an ideology react defensively to information that threatens them/it. It's not confirmation bias if you call it ideological consistency. At least, that's what the Confirmation Bias Department would like you to believe. *** Economic reform is a long game. Summary of Javier Milei over at American Thinker and his battle against socialism. Worth a read.
The cancer of socialism metastasizes into every area of society -- the chemotherapy requires more time than a single presidency.*** Update from commenter mindful webworker.
Predicting the future: the commentariat will hyperventilate. We should ready ourselves for the usual lectures about decorum, solemn denunciations, and grave warnings about the deplorable portion of society. I expect a parade of earnest pundits lecturing us that the real scandal is the response (public firing squad) rather than Nidal Hasan's actions (murdering 13 people).
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has announced that the execution of convicted Fort Hood Islamist terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan will be "PUBLIC," with American soldiers carrying out the firing squad at the very military installation where Hasan murdered 13 people and wounded 32 others in 2009.
The thing that sticks with you after that video isn’t some secret gadget or Hollywood manhunt trick. It’s the patience of it. US Marshals can work through the ordinary leftovers of a person’s life until the hiding place starts getting smaller… an old address that still matters, somebody who knows more than they realize, a car that turns up in the right area, or a routine that finally becomes predictable enough to be useful.
In automotive assembly, for example, fixture plates use carbide pins to locate body panels during welding. The pins slide into corresponding holes, ensuring each panel sits in precisely the right position before robotic welders do their work. Because these fixtures cycle thousands of times per day, the pins need to resist wear that would gradually enlarge the holes and degrade positioning accuracy. The same principle applies in:
• Aerospace jigs for composite layup and drilling operations
• Electronics manufacturing where circuit boards require precise positioning
• Medical device assembly where tolerances are measured in micrometers
• Tool and die construction for stamping and forming operations

My wife just uses my account, so Amazon thinks I'm a fan of history books and romance and mystery novels, I have young children, am over 90, like floral arranging and home decoration, but grill outside, and consistently maintain a hair care routine, and prefer specialty vinegars.
They must think I'm schizophrenic.

Akshully, I did err. A Mobius strip also flips handedness, at least for flatlanders. A flatlander has no notion of upside-downness. And that means a Klein bottle does as well for the flatlanders.

You can construct a 3D space like this, a 3D manifold version of the Klein bottle, and put a Arthur C. Clarke mirror "boundary" in it.
You walk into what looks like a mirror. You set into a mirror___ version of the world you just left. It's the same space, you just crossed back into it. To someone watching you do that, it looks as if you stepped into the mirror, and your reflection just popped back out.
You think nothing happened to you, the world flipped handedness. The world thinks you flipped handedness.

Yeah, I used to think there was some logic to it, even if it’s twisted or wishful thinking or believing what they want to believe.
But every single time, it turns out they were doing whatever evils they accused others of, usually more egregiously than their accusations.
You could probably make a name for yourself as a prosecutor by looking at Democrat accusations and then investigating the accuser for exactly that. Most of the time it turns out they weren’t even hiding it. They just seem to assume no one will look or care, which makes me wonder why they made the accusations to begin with. They must have some sense that it’s wrong.

To destroy someone it is first required to dehumanize them. Basically throw them out of the "collective us" the group that it is possible the empathize with.

I constantly have to remind myself that any US President has constituencies that go far beyond my tribe. Far beyond the US. He is playing to a global audience with almost everything he does. And no US President in my lifetime plays to a bigger one than Trump.
He literally is playing multi-dimensional chess with moves like this while he is dealing with a balance of power in the Middle East and beyond and trying to build coalitions and doing deals with countries that are trying to bring their people around to the idea of breaking their tribal bonds and going in a new direction and at the same time keeping his own tribe happy.
I probably would've watched the execution but I wouldn't fault anyone on our side who wouldn't. But mostly I'm glad he will face justice finally. I can live with the compromise.

You walk into what looks like a mirror. You set into a mirror___ version of the world you just left. It's the same space, you just crossed back into it. To someone watching you do that, it looks as if you stepped into the mirror, and your reflection just popped back out.
You think nothing happened to you, the world flipped handedness. The world thinks you flipped handedness.

Cats are very smell-oriented, which is why they are always marking everything, including you, as their territory. Their ancestors were loners who actually did change behavior due to humans, forming groups around human settlements. They mark us as part of their group and are generally closest to those with the strongest smell of the group.

Any normal politician would have just said that, and it would never have been aired or discussed.

I just looked that handedness flipping 3-manifold thing up, and I was suspecting that requires 5D to embed. It takes 5 dimensions to allow a 3D space to flip handedness like that. 4D wouldn't be enough. You need one more dimension to do the bending without messing up something.

There's that but I think he is considering a much wider audience. Trump is trying to realign the Middle East, along with a few other regions, and trying to get governments with their own crazy leftists for lack of a better term to follow his lead.
Having Hasan executed by firing squad is going to send a powerful message that if you fuck with Americans we will kill you. That shows strength and that is one thing Arabs respect. Broadcasting it might be seen in a different light by people we want to stop being savages.
Having done business in the ME I know they respect strength but if you give them a reason to think you've gone too far they will find a reason to justify why you are worse than the criminal. Stupid but real.

There's an interesting paper, "On the Dimensionality of Spacetime" by Max Tegmark, here:
https://t.ly/F2zyK
He argues that all be our (1,3) spacetime just won't work. 1 dimension of time, and three of space are the only ones that allow for "well behaved" physics.
For example with 4 or more spatial dimensions, gravity and EM have no stable structures. In 4D space, gravity and EM would be inverse cube. Circular orbits there are unstable to perturbations.
More than one time dimension is just nuts, and less than 3 spatial dimensions would make things too simple. While you might think gravity would be inverse linear in 2D (and EM is this indeed), the tensor form of Einstein gravity would not allow a vacuum field to exist. Gravity could not propagate at all. So you need at least three spatial dimensions for gravity to even work.

The T-top on the Mazda is the ND (4th) generation. The NC generation PHRT (Power Retractable Hard Top) uses a fiberglass top that folds back in exactly the same space as the softtop. There's a little difference in profile when they're up, but down, you can't tell them.apart.
Which is why I bought the NC PHRT when I gave up the Helmet and Aerostich life.

I have heard that the best way to make sure your luggage is never lost is to carry a firearm. Doesn't have to have ammo. Doesn't even have to be a complete gun; just enough of one so the government considers it "a firearm."
If the airline loses a checked bag with a firearm in it, they are in a bunch of trouble. So they don't lose those.
I've never tried it myself, but I've never *knocks on wood* had trouble with baggage.

I'm as old school as can be. There is no place I'd ever want to be than behind the wheel of a sailboat going anywhere or no place in particular and I feel the same way about ICE cars.
But the performance and mind boggling things Musk is doing with electric cars is pretty spectacular. There's no denying they are just flat out faster and while I'm still pretty dubious of the self-driving stuff it's getting hard to deny they are doing things constantly I wasn't sure possible.
I still am not ready to not drive my own cars, never will be to sail my own boats, but what I saw tonight was ... wow.

Yep, both spin direction and angular momentum vector would flip. Without a torque. Thus, in such a space, angular momentum cannot be globally defined.

I don't fit very well in the A, B, or D versions (over 6', over 220#) so I was looking at the NC to start with. It's the Grand Touring version with the (heresy!!) 6 speed automatic. I would have bought the manual, but this came up.at a god price so I got it. I was a co-owner in a TR3 60 odd years ago that we raced in SCCA, so I'm comfortable heel-toeing and rowing, but I bought this for the wind-in-the -hair experience, not the adrenaline rush of "when is the ass end going to let go".

Well, duh, this is about the meaning of a "non-orientable surface" or manifold in general. A surface is a 2D manifold.
Things like angular momentum (and magnetic fields) are described in 3-space by the cross-product and right hand rules (or left-hand if you like, doesn't matter, just have to be consistent). The cross-product and operators like the curl are not really vectors, more "pseudo-vectors", as their direction depends on that chosen right-hand or left-hand rule. They are really a tensor, something called a bi-vector (think of anti-symmetric rank-2 tensor).
This works in higher dimensions than three. In 3D, since there are only 3 independent components, it can be disguised as a vector, with the orientation rule choice.
But, in a non-orientable space, all that breaks down globally. It just doesn't work.

It's all moot now anyway. The CGPM (Frog speak for General Conference on Weights and Measures) just voted yesterday to, for all practical purposes, eliminate leap seconds.
UTC is now going to run free for at least 500 years... They've haven't agreed on any scheme to replace and deal with keeping UT1 and UTC aligned. The measure raised the threshold of the allow difference to 1 hour from the current 0.9 seconds.

The reason they did this is because of earth's little "anomalous" rotational speed up starting in 2020. That has apparently stopped, and we're back to "normal".
But if that continued as it seemed it might for the next few years, a negative leap second would've been possible in 2029. This has never been done before, positive leap seconds are bad enough with computer systems, and it likely would've crashed the entire internet, fucked up no telling how many critical systems like all the stock trading systems, maybe even power systems.
So, that got them off their asses about this and they just punted, letting UTC run free.
Worst case, it will be no sooner than 500 years, and most likely a thousand or two, before DUT1 ever got noticeably too out of phase with mean solar time, much less one hour difference.

New tires are notoriously slick on their own - No joke, to quote our previous President - because of the mold-release compound and should be driven conservatively for the first couple of hundred miles.

@Scampydog, it's quite fascinating. Basically, it's a series of cuts done on the bias to every skin (sliced vertically along the backbone, first) and then matched and sewn so that you end up with one continuous section which can then be cut as if it were fabric.
With mink, you segregate by male and female skins; females are usually smaller so more skins means more cost. The fur is generally softer and the hides thinner which makes for a lighter coat. Male skins are more coarse with longer guard hairs but depending on how the skins are matched you often cannot tell the difference. A better coat will keep the lining free at the bottom so you can inspect the skins. Turn up the lining and you will see all the thread used to stitch those small strips together.
Often small strips of leather or skin will be sewn in to reinforce spots or extend the skins to keep costs down.

@JackStraw, the store was a four floor building on Newbury between Berkeley and Clarendon. Notorious for a certain employee who decided to off his pregnant wife and blame it on a black man who had nothing to do with it. Given the city's history, it set off a firestorm.
(I lived on the backside of Beacon Hill at the time, near Mass. General.)

Man, I was just reading some of the likely failure modes if a negative leap second had been tried. It's basically "pure programming", and making assumptions that shouldn't be made, but the potential to break everything was there.
And that's what got the Time Lords off their asses.

Yep, there was a real worry that a negative leap second could've have fucked up the grid control. Some monitoring software and hardware, could've gotten messed up and saw the missing second as some huge shift in frequency and phase, making it shit its pants thinking some huge fault or other "swing" disaster was afoot, and tried to correct. Of course said correction, like slamming on the brakes to avoid a wreck, woud've caused a disaster. Major black outs and all that.

I was just going over the history of UTC, when the current 0.9s leap second tolerance was put it. In hindsight, that was terrible, but they had no idea of the soon-to-be computer revolution. That tolerance was put there basically for celestial navigation purposes, and low precision use. 0.9s allowed UTC to serve as a decent proxy for UT1, with the error there the same order as the error in sextant angle readings. All in all, about an 0.22 nautical mile error bar on positions from the cruder navigation.
Now, it's all high precision GPS, so that tolerance isn't needed any more for that purpose.
In 1972, for civil time purposes, it was still basically setting your clocks by low resolution methods, "At the tone, the time will be .....". All these complex details were the exclusive province of the Time Lords, and didn't concern the general public.
But then computers, and it all very much concerned the general public, at least the devices we've all become dependent on.

But yeah there is no way mail in ballots would ever be postmarked after the fact. No way man. Democrats who work at usps would absolutely never ever do that. Right?

The reason many potential mass-casualty events stopped by good guys with guns don't show up in the statistics is because the bad guy is stopped before it becomes mass-casualty.

One of the questions of exoplanet research is asking how our own solar system compares. Are we run of the mill, or some sort of oddball or something. Trouble has been a piss-poor sample of exo-solar systems. That is changing slowly, and now they think they've seen a enough to decide that there are basically two families of stellar systems.
Type 1 they call "peas in a pod". Low mass systems, very ordered, with many planets sort of close together. The other type is "high dynamical temperature". These are higher mass systems where the mass seems to get concentrated in relatively fewer, big mass planets more distantly spaced.
In that picture, our own solar system is sort of at a tipping point between those two types. Were peas in a pod, but yet are a little dynamically hotter. This may, may be some sort of sweet spot, who knows....

Steven Soderbergh will help finish “The Batman Part II” while director Matt Reeves is on hiatus dealing with a personal matter.
Soderbergh said in a statement: “I thought Matt Reeves’ work on ‘The Batman’ was stunning; it was intentional, specific and rigorously coherent. The goal here is to work with Matt and his team to generate footage that will integrate seamlessly with what’s already been shot so Matt can properly finish his film.”

Problem is, with current technology it's hard to detect smaller planets reliably, and as for moons? even harder. So our ability to detect also skews the results.
Reminds me of the story, during WW2, when the British or Americans were trying to figure out where to add additional armor to bombers and were using the places where the returning airplanes were shot as the first place to add, but a mathematician noted that those planes came back, so armoring those places didn't make sense; instead they should look where the planes that didn't come back were hit, but since that wasn't possible, use the places on the planes that came back WEREN'T hit...

In Saudi Arabia, the most famous version is part of the King Abdulaziz Camel Festival.
However, in last month's 2026 Camel Beauty Show Festival in Al Musanaa, Oman, 20 camel owners had their animals disqualified from the after veterinary inspectors discovered that the camels had undergone several cosmetic procedures to enhance their appearance.
The disqualified camels had received a mix of injectables, including hyaluronic acid injections to their lips, dermal fillers and silicone around their nose, Botox to soften their faces, silicone wax to inflate their humps, and more.
"We are keen to halt all acts of tampering and deception in the beautification of camels," festival organizers with the Camel Club and the Oman Camel Racing Federation said in a statement, as they added that they would impose "strict penalties on manipulators."

The thing about a roadster is that they should be somewhat light. With the batteries?
Maybe if they can succeed in making it handle and feel light, I dunno.
Plus, I kind of wondering if the steering will be the modern fly by wire stuff or have actual linkage.

Drunk and Homely Female Democrat Lives in a Van Down by the River and Threatens Republicans, "We Have Guns Too"
A retarded woman running as a Democrat -- is there any other kind? -- was plainly drunk and possibly on drugs when she popped into a studio for a scheduled interview.
The sheriff says he has no idea what this brain-damaged woman is talking about. #BelieveAllSheriffs.
A Democrat running for county council in eastern Indiana was ridiculed Tuesday after critics claimed she appeared "s--- faced" and slurred her way through attacks on Republicans during a televised candidate forum. During the forum, Fayette County Council candidate Jaime West said she would "fire all Republicans" if elected, railed against "MAGAs" she called "racist" and unintelligent and alleged that a sheriff's nephew had threatened to kill her. Asked for a final message to voters, West responded: "We have guns too." "This is not a skit," said LibsOfTikTok, a popular conservative punditry account run by commentator Chaya Raichik. "Jaime West, a Democrat running for Fayette County Council in Indiana, gave an embarrassing interview where she appears to mumble and rant the entire time. Is she intoxicated?" Raichik asked on X. ... When asked one decision she would make if elected that constituents would find unpopular, West told the moderator, "Fire all Republicans." "I wouldn't let them -- I don't even talk to them. I don't like them. They voted against -- their own state representative voted against her own party," West continued while also pledging not to raise taxes.
"Y'all did this to us. ... You made this happen. This ICE coming into our communities, stealing people's jobs. I mean, I've been threatened so many times to my face by MAGA; we'll call them, because there's Republicans who actually get it. You know, there are good Republicans out there, but then there's these MAGAs who are just racist and aren't very intelligent at all," West continued. "They call you names. The sheriff's nephew threatened to blow my head off. But, you know, what are you going to do?"
Remember, all leftists are smarter than you. Their ideology assures them this the case. That's why they're so passionate about it. Their ideology tells them, despite all available evidence, that they are special and superior.
The moderator paused before asking West for a final message to voters. "We have guns too," West said as the moderator pivoted to informing viewers about how to vote in the Hoosier State's elections this year.
Viva Frei
@thevivafrei Oct 13 This is WILD. I legit thought it was a skit/high school video project. It is 100% real. This is Jaime West (Democratic Party) - she's running for election for Fayette County Council, District 4 in Indiana. I had to make sure she did not have a neurological disorder that could account for the slurred speech and insane rambling. She doesn't. And even if she did have a diagnosed neurological disorder, "we have guns too!" after talking about firing all Republicans would ordinarily be disqualifying. "One of the penalties of refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors." -Plato
Ryan GrimOf course:
@ryangrim Oct 13 Watch this to the end, you won't regret it. This is what happens when you're at happy hour and are reminded you agreed to do an interview about your race.

@KeithOlbermann I don't want to overreact to Jaime West here but I think she's my pick for Secretary of Defense

It is Oregon, of course. If he had a more-than-ten-round magazine then it will be proof that that law that violates the Constitution is essential to be enforced finally, and of course if he didn't it will be proof that it should be enforced anyways to continue to prevent greater tradgedies.
My question is, did the Feds and State Police get there faster than they did at the Rogue Valley CC shooting in Roseburg when Obama was president?

I don't give a shit what Demonrats say anymore. No reason to repeat nor figure out whatever lies they might tell. Simple heuristic for a more peaceful life-just assume whatever they would have said is a lie, a damned lie, or a statistic So you can disregard the rest of the statement after you hear the words Democrat.
FWIW, I was at the pistol range for the first time in about three years (could not go because of all the surgeries and recovery times between them) and it felt good to put bullets on target again.
Looking to go the rifle range before Election Day as Demonrats might get sporty if they lose as they deserve.

I have no need to even watch trailers to figure out Netflix will do everything they can to devalue, destroy, and mock the original work. Amazon did the same thing to Tolkien with Rangz of Pow'r. They wuz Kangz and Shit.
And Disney is sure to enter the take a dump on classic properties as well. The AWFLs and the sick in the head alphabet people have ruined modern entertainment. And if Ellison is smart at his job, he can lay waste to this ecosystem by simply not financing these sorts of projects. That is why the left was wailing about the acquisition--if Ellison shows profits where the woke studios show losses, then it won't be long until they have to drop the woke bit or go under.

That is a particularly mundane take. Everyone already knows that but Trump's remaining cabinet members have already shown they can give Democrats all they want. This is not Iraq redux in 2006 but rather a stupid and pointless push to shampeachment three--the idiocy. And that is likely to lose them 2028 if they are so stupid.

@LisaBritton Do these people live on another planet? College campuses are already anti-men to the max. Many male college students I've spoken with tell me they feel like a punching bag. Absolutely delusional to suggest that college men "aren’t being taught about inequality, power & sexism."
Kamala Harris is still pretending she's running for president. Fweedom!
Governess Houchul has spared 16,000 criminals from deportation by refusing to deliver them to ICE.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris called for institutional changes to the Supreme Court and the Electoral College during an interview Tuesday, calling for more justices on the highest court in the nation. "The work that we can do about winning back the House and the Senate is going to be on a number of things. For example, I believe that we need to expand the Supreme Court. We need more justices on the Supreme Court so that we can have a court that actually reinforces the spirit and principles behind the Constitution of the United States," Harris told podcast host Keke Palmer on her "Baby, This is Keke Palmer" podcast. "I believe that we should be pushing for what is possible around changing the Electoral College. Right? "It's about, the popular vote has to matter, right? You know, all the things that make people feel, like, overwhelmed, and does their vote matter? We have, you know, listen, if the folks there want it, we should be pushing for statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C., right? These are some of the things that are structural that we need to do, but we need to reestablish affordable child care," Harris added. Harris lost both the Electoral College and the popular vote to President Donald Trump in 2024. She told Palmer she still remains undecided about a 2028 presidential run.
Governess Hochul put on an embarrassing performance in her debate with Republican Bruce Blakeman. Or so I'm told; I didn't watch it. All she could do was keep repeating "Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump" because her record is terrible. One poll says the race is neck-and-neck. I doubt it, but if you're a New York voters, you know what you could do that would result in the Funniest Thing Ever...?
New York blew off 16,000 Trump administration ICE orders to detain suspected heinous illegal migrants accused or convicted in more than 50,000 criminal charges, disturbing new data show. The Department of Homeland Security said the municipalities across the Dem-driven state have refused to comply with its detainment requests 16,070 times since President Trump re-entered office fewer than two years ago -- refusing to hand over criminal migrants suspected or convicted of everything from murder to kidnapping and sexual assault. "While sanctuary politicians continue to release dangerous criminals onto their streets, our brave law enforcement officers will continue to risk their lives to arrest these heinous criminals and make America safe again. Illegal aliens have no sanctuary in America," DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin told The Post.
"We enforce these laws with no help from Mayor [Zohran] Mamdani and Governor [Kathy] Hochul.
Gov. Kathy Hochul and Bruce Blakeman are nearly neck-and-neck as they head into the gubernatorial election's only debate Tuesday, a stunning new poll found. Democrat Hochul leads the Republican Nassau executive 47% to 44%, a Pollfinity survey released Tuesday found. The poll found about 6% of voters were undecided, while another 3% planned to cast their ballots for others. When undecided voters were asked which way they were leaning the race spread slightly, but just barely -- with the candidates falling within 4 points of each other at 48% to 44%. The poll called on 499 New Yorkers between Oct. 8 and 12, and bucked trends other pollsters had found in recent weeks which placed Hochul at a roughly 10-point lead over Blakeman. Hochul led Blakeman by 12 points -- 52% to 40%, with 8% undecided -- in an Oct. 8 poll from Emerson College and PIX 11 that called on 900 voters.
Kathy Hochul is asked about all the prejudicial statements she and Tish James have made pre-judging the "Cornell 7" defendants as Gang Rapists -- and then goes on to make even MORE flagrantly prejudicial statements, declaring the "victim" was "brutally attacked" at the fraternity https://t.co/nLcUtkaxSb

Ol' Kambo showing' off her cerebral cortex:
For example, I believe that we need to expand the Supreme Court. We need more justices on the Supreme Court so that we can have a court that actually reinforces the spirit and principles behind the Constitution of the United States," Harris told podcast host Keke Palmer.
So, the Supreme Court shouldn't rule based on the letter of the Constitution, but rather interpret law based on some woozy, emanations perceived only by Democrat appointed judges.
No. Thank. You.
She needs to stick to commenting on what she knows...like blowjobs.

I believe that DC cannot become a state according to the Constitution....
The U.S. Constitution itself — specifically Article I, Section 8, Clause 17 — grants Congress exclusive legislative authority over the District of Columbia, which is the seat of the U.S. government, making it federal property under federal control.

Where has she been the past what? 2 years? I’ve heard more from Obama than I have her. She lost and tucked tail, I’m not a fan of that.
She lost to Trump, who should not be a difficult opponent. Dems allowed Republicans to make government so unworkable and difficult that the poor and working poor see no difference between the party that hates them and the party that capitulates to and sympathizes with the party that hates them.
Biden picked her because she would be such a bad candidate to go up against him as he got older, and the Democrats would choose him to run again. However, it's pretty clear that Biden would be a better president now, even if he had to turn most everything over to his advisors. The country would be in a much, much better position.
She is prepared and does her homework. She's smart and can run the government and lead the military. She would likely not be on CNN and the internet every fucking day. But in this timeline in this country she likely can't win.

The Senate should constitutionalize the size of the Supreme Court now that we, theoretically, know what a good size is (The Paolo notwithstanding) like they should have done every time they’ve gained “power” since the Democrats threatened to force a Supreme Court advantage in, what, 1937?
In defense of Republican lawmakers, they may legitimately be completely forgetful about it. I never get any send-money-now requests that mention packing the court when Republicans could actually do something about it.

She might not need to gain quite that much. I've never seen her nude (thank God), but I doubt she would qualify for Playmate of the Month status (ca. 1975, say) or as a fitness model.

Moments after officers arrived at the scene, police said they were told the suspected shooter had been shot and killed inside the school, but officials said they are still unclear on whether the suspect was shot by a bystander or by a police officer.

Now, parents in the Forest Lake Area School District are questioning whether students got an unexpected introduction to one particular U.S. Senate candidate during the school day — courtesy of a taxpayer-funded classroom.
Students across multiple grade levels — including high school seniors who are already 18 or will turn 18 by Election Day — were shown a video featuring Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan, the DFL candidate for U.S. Senate, as part of the district’s Indigenous Peoples’ Day observance Monday, Oct. 12.
In the three-minute KARE 11-produced segment about Indigenous Peoples’ Day, Flanagan touts her Native American heritage while also highlighting her political prominence.
“I’m the lieutenant governor of the great state of Minnesota, and I’m White Earth Ojibwe,” Flanagan says. “I am the highest-ranking native woman to serve an executive office in the country.”

Shoot-out after lovers' quarrel: Tennessee appeals court orders new trial after jury was lied to about victim's sex.
The Tennessee Court of Criminal Appeals has thrown out Samuel Ward Jr.'s voluntary manslaughter conviction for shooting Paris Lee, a trans-identified male. At prosecutors’ request, the Shelby County trial judge barred any mention that Lee was male, ordered everyone to call him ‘Ms. Lee,’ and redacted his autopsy.
The appeals court said that misled the jury and ordered a new trial.

Nancy Mace Was Right? Police Arrest Her Ex-Fiance and Three Other Men for Sexually Abusing an Unconscious Woman
She originally Soft Opened these charges with surveillance camera video from a gym. I thought she was complaining that the surveillance camera photographed her wearing her gym clothes.
I don't know why she didn't lead with the real story, the sexual assault on an unconscious woman.Well color me surprised. I guess her speech did mention the assault. But she spoke about it in such a fuzzy way I didn't know what she was specifically alleging.
South Carolina authorities have charged three of the four men Rep. Nancy Mace accused in a 2025 House floor speech of sexually abusing women and girls with offenses related to the alleged sexual assault of a 23-year-old incapacitated woman in 2018. The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division announced the charges Wednesday against John Douglas Osborne, 46, Brendan Patrick Bryant, 53, and Eric Bernard Bowman, 46. All three men were booked into the Sheriff Al Cannon Detention Center in Charleston County. Bryant is the former fiancé of Mace, who has said that she ended of her engagement to Bryant in November 2023 after discovering videos of women being sexually abused on his cellphone. The alleged incident occurred Oct. 26, 2018, on Sullivan's Island, a 3 1/2-mile-long barrier island home to some 2,000 people near Charleston Harbor. According to the affidavits supporting the charges, the victim, a 23-year-old woman, was drunk when she fell into the swimming pool of a residence. She then removed her wet clothes but for her bra and passed out on a sofa. While she was unconscious, the three men are accused of discussing sexual exploits before agreeing that Osborne would have sex with the woman as the others watched.
The documents allege that as Osborne kissed, digitally penetrated and performed oral sex on the incapacitated woman, Bryant and Bowman watched. They are also accused of taking photos and video of the incident. An unidentified witness allegedly overheard the alleged conversation between the men and watched Bowman and Bryant via a home security video feed apparently record the assault. The documents state the witness also obtained and saved two still photographic images from the security video feed and created an email or journal entry detailing the incident from her perspective.
... The announcement comes nearly two years after Mace, a Republican firebrand, took to the House floor on Feb. 10, 2025, to accuse the three men and another of raping and filming women they had incapacitated. She also alleged that they took nonconsensual photos and videos of the victims. She said she had found thousands of videos and photos of the alleged crimes and had identified almost a dozen dozen victims, including herself.
"I accidentally uncovered some of the most heinous crimes against women imaginable -- we are talking about rape, nonconsensual photos, nonconsensual videos of women and underage girls, and the premeditated, calculated exploitation," Mace revealed in her shocking speech.I will just note that feminists basically use these words now to attack people just for criticizing them online. Without specifying the specific actions allegedly committed, no one can tell what a feminist means when she says "rape" any longer. (And Mace is, of course, a strident feminist. She sued the Citadel and forced her way into the formerly all-boys military academy.) Related: Nancy Mace points out that America's Sweetheart thinks "U.S." stands for "the U.S. g*ddamn States."
All around Anti-American.

After months in hiding, a frantic ex-Rep. Eric Swalwell was spotted scurrying toward a black SUV outside his family home in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday — as the Los Angeles County DA confirmed it’s reviewing his criminal rape case for charges.
The California Post can also reveal Swalwell no longer living in the nation’s capital, and was only there for a fleeting business visit, which happened to fall on his 10th wedding anniversary to wife, Brittany Watts.
The 45-year-old appeared harried just before 9 p.m., attempting to disguise himself in a cap and glasses as he hustled toward a waiting car near the $1.2 million property he once shared with Watts and the couple’s three children.

Maybe they just didn't see it as rape. As crazy as that is, some people occupy a very different headspace. Consider these Motley Crue lyrics (from the 2000s): "Girls passed out, naked in the back lounge, everybody's going to score."

Neil Young says Tom Cruise's "Digger" is "the best film I have ever seen."
"None of the reviews I have read describe this film adequately, in my opinion," Young wrote. "They seem to miss the overall effect and most of them are negative. This film lives in a world of art. It is its own best review. Don't read any other reviews and forget this one before you see 'Digger.' It cannot be seen as a Tom Cruise film - that would be misleading. I would describe it as a film of our times... I do not view this film as a commercial venture. Rather it is an artful film of our times. The things that are said in 'Digger' are a direct reflection of today's political and social world. The film is so full of artful expression and radical change ups, that it may be too much to take in for those expecting a commercial film like we are used to today."

I have noticed this lack of understanding of what ought to be the lede is very common among conspiracy theorists, at least among the “paranormal”. My favorite remains von Daniken, who would basically write things like, here’s a suspiciously spherical sphere, and these triangular scratchings could easily represent an astronaut’s face mask, this detailed stone carving is clearly an astronaut in full outfit with a helmet microphone holding a grooved disc, and for further proof, did you ever notice that birds are prevalent in ancient mythologies…
Wait, what was that about an astronaut in full outfit again? Why are you grouping that with round stones and rough triangles? Either they’re lying and they know it (this was almost certainly the case with von Daniken—the illustration in question was from a Soviet-era music magazine) or they have lost all sense of what constitutes proof, if they ever had it.
You can see the same thing in UFO enthusiasts and psychical researchers.

How did our country get to this point?

And more importantly, why has the Democratic Party allowed her stepbrother to become their Michigan Senate nominee, despite their obvious ties to terrorist groups? The two most consequential fallouts of radical left-wing ideology's capture of public institutions has been the demoralization of American youth and the welcoming of anti-American foreigners who enjoy the luxuries of our country while working to undermine it.

My estimate of the possibility is probably far lower than yours, but fully agree with this statement: even my very low possibility is still higher the possibility that his evidence has any bearing on it.
It’s hard not to think he feels the same way. If he truly believed his theory had any possibility of being true, he would have, on discovering that absolute proof of ancient astronauts, given up on balls and shrouds and spent far more time trying to find that engraving. He reproduced a photograph. If true, it was absolute proof. (You can see it at the link in my nic.)
UFO researchers often do the same with vague lights in the sky and clearly full-on ships with people in them. They treat these two bits of evidence the same—and give them the same complete lack of investigation.

Iran Sentences Woman to Death For Insulting Their "Prophet;" Activists Attack Pete Hegseth For Making War on This Enlightened Regime
The mullahs will hang a woman for insulting the leaders of Iran, which they then trumped up to insulting the "prophet."
So the whole claim of blasphemy is a lie, they just want to murder her because she spoke out against them.
An Iranian woman has been sentenced to death for blasphemy over a social media post that insulted the prophet. Accounting student Najmeh Amini, 23, was sentenced to death last month after being held in the notorious Vakilabad Prison in Mashhad for eight months. It was previously reported that Amini was being held on charges that included 'insulting the Supreme Leader' and 'clashing with security agents.' However, Iranian human rights activists have now revealed that the student was sentenced to death on charges of 'sab ol-nabi' (insulting the prophet). She was also sentenced to 12 years, six months, and one day on charges of acting against national security and spreading anti-regime propaganda.
Amini was arrested on January 31 after she -- alongside hundreds of thousands of Iranians -- took to the streets to protest against its authoritarian government. In response, security forces unleashed a deadly crackdown, in which more than 7,000 people were killed, while thousands more were arrested, according to human rights groups. Following her sentencing last month, a leaked voice recording from inside prison emerged, in which Amini desperately pleaded for help. 'Greetings to the people of Iran. I am Najmeh Amini, 23 years old, speaking from the central prison of Mashhad. I am leaving this message for you on 18 September 2026,' she is heard saying. ... 'I request that international human rights organisations and responsible bodies at the United Nations hear my voice and investigate and follow up on the status of my case.The UN. Sorry, lady, the UN will not help you. They will cheerlead your murder.
... 'The Iranian authorities are unleashing a horrifying wave of executions and death sentences to punish and suppress dissent and project an image of strength and absolute control,' said Heba Morayef, Amnesty International's regional director. 'The muted response from the international community emboldens the Iranian authorities to continue their deadly rampage.' Amnesty said at least 26 people were arbitrarily executed after being convicted of offences related to the January protests, following what it said were 'torture-tainted, grossly unfair trials' by revolutionary courts.Iran, like Communist China and the Soviet Union before that, represents the leftist dream of murdering their opponents and taking full control over all aspects of society, and therefore must be defended and praised by all good communist cultists.
Multiple Iran War protesters have crashed Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's Wednesday roundtable on Autonomous Warfare at the Association of the United States Army conference. In a coordinated effort, six different protesters took turns interrupting Hegseth's panel at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. The roundtable is currently ongoing, and there may be more protesters as the event continues to unfold.
The video player is currently playing an ad. "Pete Hegseth, you're a fucking war criminal, you're a Nazi," a male protester yelled while in the middle aisle of the event, in full view of Hegseth. "You should be ashamed, he screamed." ... The confrontation was not Hegseth's first encounter with anti-war demonstrators. On April 30, a protester affiliated with the anti-war organization CODEPINK interrupted Hegseth's testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee, accusing him of war crimes and condemning American military operations in Iran before being arrested by Capitol Police, according to CODEPINK. "You're a war criminal," one protester screamed repeatedly while being dragged out by security.

The US Navy, in performing its duty in enforcing the embargoes pushed by the Euros and Asians, as well as others, guaranteed that the price of that embargoed oil would remain low, supplies remained high, and the profit lucrative. In black-bagging Maduro and allowing the Iranians to blockade the Straits of Hormuz and rolling up the floating Iranian tankers, and crimping down on the shadow banking, the profit went away, and EVERYONE wound up paying market prices.
of course the US is hated

Billionaire stadium owner, Robert Kraft, did not like Macklemore, a Grammy winning rapper, saying "Free Palestine" on stage — so he made calls and the artist got pulled off of Ed Sheeran's tour.
This is not just about a single musical act. This is about how a small handful of powerful people, like stadium owners, can threaten someone's livelihood in order to prevent an entire massive issue from being spoken about -- in this case, the genocide in Gaza.

Trump encouraged thousands of people, like this bright, noble, beautiful girl, to rise up against this evil regime, then sold them out. May both the Iranian despots and Trump go to hell.
If anybody was curious, the only source for any of this is HRANA, and yes, they receive funds from the NED, which is a CIA cutout within the US State Dept.

I expected him to go off on "FREE PALESTINE"!!! at some point.
He did, but I was shocked at how little time he spent on it. Being Irish, I assume he was contractually obligated to do it. (The Irish REALLY hate Israel for some reason I can't fully comprehend. I think they believe being weaker automatically means you are righteous.)

I read that book, too, and he made some good points, but I believe Mo existed, and that he wrote his rants (or had somebody write them down, because he was probably illiterate), and that is why they are internally inconsistent. I also believe he was epileptic and that was the source of his "inspiration" and visions. I'm quite sure he was a warlord, intent on world domination, but he didn't think that big because he had never seen the world beyond the Arabian peninsula, and couldn't imagine how he could ever pull off that coup.
I'm equally sure his "followers" saw the possibilities in leveraging ol Mo's image to slaughter their rivals and take over their lands, money, and women. Mo didn't start the religion, but after he died, his "followers" certainly did. Politics can be trifled with, not so "religion."

His slaughter of the Jews is verified.
But most of it reads like some horndog warlord who didn't like it when he was bested by anyone or anything, with the hair trigger most Muzzies have, and no sense of decency or rational limitations.

There are no contemporary records of Mo, but of course he did come from a primitive civilization that wasn't big on writing and someone committed genocide on the local Jewish population who likely would have written about it if not killed...
The interesting thing here though is Islam makes Mecca out to be an important trading hub at the time but they've found no Roman coins there - and as a comparison they've found Roman coins at other sites on the trade routes to India so that certainly seems odd...
Overall though I think Mo probably was a real person who said some of the stuff attributed to him, had sex with the men of Al-Zutt and 9 year olds - but he was living in a primitive village whose only claim to fame was an unimportant pagan temple.

This is about how a small handful of powerful people, like the media, Hollywood, and politicians, can threaten someone's livelihood in order to prevent an entire massive issue from being spoken about-- in this case, TikTok thots dressing like whores at the gym.
Or, to paraphrase an old Chappell joke recirculating: they might not be whores, but they're sure wearing the uniform.

Texas Man Charged Migrants $200 Each for a Ride to Apply for Asylum and Drove Them Straight to ICE Detention.
Authorities say a Texas man was arrested after charging illegal migrants $200 apiece while telling them he would take them to places where they could apply for asylum. Instead, he drove them to ICE detention centers.
Officials claim he presented himself as someone offering help and then handed the migrants over to federal immigration authorities.

You can hear the Demonic Party candidates now talking about how they want to gun down, imprison, bankrupt, de-banked, destroy their political opponents. They even admit on the campaign trail that if elected they will try to get MAGA oriented people fired from their jobs.
It ain't just Islam. Islam is just yet another expression of the demonic desire to destroy their enemies and reward their sychophants who put them into power.

President Donald Trump and his MAGA movement have entered what one former Republican official has described as their "fat Elvis" era, as his campaign tactics and recycled attacks are wearing thin with some Republican voters who feel the president is past his prime.
Tara Setmayer, a former Republican communications director on Capitol Hill, delivered her verdict in a Thursday interview with The Guardian, arguing that the conspiracy theories and cheap attacks and high school nicknames have run their course and are no longer resonating with voters facing the reality of high living costs

The primary economic legislation signed into law during the presidency of Joe Biden includes the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the CHIPS and Science Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.
Show us where the majority of money went. We almost lost a federal agency over backstopping multi-employer pensions!

Never forget that days after Charlie’s assassination, Ilhan Omar said his legacy “should be in the dust bin of history” and the real “jarring” thing was not his murder, but the fact that people want to honor him.

Debunking CRFB’s Analysis of Trump and
Biden Impacts on the National Debt
WASHINGTON, D.C. – This week, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB) released a report entitled, “Trump and Biden: The National Debt.”
The CRFB’s report attempts to compare the fiscal impact of the policies of the current Administration with the policies of the previous Administration, yet fails to accurately capture the total cost incurred by both presidencies.

YES: Trump's DHS Is Preparing a Case for Deporting the Foreign Agent of Influence Ilhan "Omar"
The Trump administration is building a case that could lead to the deportation of Rep. Ilhan Omar, with federal agents seizing the Minnesota Democrat's cellphone, notebooks, personal computers and her passport on Monday, according to a new report and people familiar with the investigation. Omar has long maintained that she became a US citizen at the age of 17 when her father was naturalized in 2000, but sources with direct knowledge of the federal raid on her DC bungalow said the Department of Justice is looking for evidence that claim is a lie. If the Somali-born Omar's citizenship was procured by the concealment of a material fact or by willful misrepresentation -- either by herself or by her father, Nur Omar Mohamed -- on immigration paperwork, then the feds will seek to denaturalize and deport her, one of the sources confirmed.Is that even her "father"? There is evidence that her real father is a Somali war criminal who genocided enemy tribes and who was trained as a revolutionary by the communist party. She has called this man -- Nur Omar Said -- "father." When asked why she refers to him as "father," she claimed that Somalis routinely call men who are not their fathers "father" to show respect. That's a lot of bullshit.
The 44-year-old congresswoman was at home with her husband Tim Mynett when agents executed a search warrant and removed the items, The Wall Street Journal reported. Criminal charges could only be brought if the alleged immigration fraud occurred within the past 10 years, while if it concerned false statements there would be a five-year statute of limitations, according to federal defense attorney Todd Spodek. Securing a criminal conviction for "knowingly procuring naturalization unlawfully requires revocation of citizenship," Spodek said, though a member of US Congress has never been denaturalized before. There's no similar statute of limitations if civil denaturalization is pursued.... The Post confirmed Wednesday that prosecutors in Minnesota are leading the immigration fraud probe into the "Squad" member, while the office of DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro is pursuing an inquiry into Omar and Mynett's finances.That sister just so happens to have run a "charity" with the same address as the address as three of the keu "Feeding Our Future" Somali fraudsters.
... The Post reported Tuesday that in the spring of 2019, following Omar's initial election to the House of Representatives, her staff pressed the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library, the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress, and Wikipedia to record her birth as happening in 1982 rather than 1981. Months earlier, in the fall of 2018, Omar's campaign had told the Associated Press that she didn't have a birth certificate due to her family's displacement by the long-running Somalia civil war. ... More than a dozen grand jury subpoenas have also been issued to family members of the Minnesota congresswoman, including her sister, Sahra Noor.
One of the largest fraud scandals in Minnesota may involve the family of Ilhan Omar. The far-left congresswoman's sister used the address of a woman who was business partners with several major convicts in the "Feeding Our Future" scandal, a Daily Wire investigation found. The federal meals scandal is described as the largest public theft in Minnesota history. The statehouse's House Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Committee is probing the Somali-born congresswoman's involvement in the scandal, but Democrats in May blocked a subpoena that would require Omar to produce records. Public records in the state, however, may tie Omar's sister, Sahra Noor, to the operation. Noor has run several businesses in the region, including the People's Center Clinics & Services in the Somali neighborhood of Minneapolis, which controversially received a $2 million earmark while her sister was a state representative. Noor went on to found a group called Grit Partners Consulting, and publicly says her company "has secured more than $20 million in funding for health initiatives" and has "consulted on projects backed by" federal health agencies such as USAID and the Center for Disease Control. Grit Partners was incorporated at a home on Hyacinth Ave. in Lakeville, Minnesota. That address, and the woman who lives there, are lynchpins tying together at least three Feeding Our Future convicts, The Daily Wire found.
Eric DaughertyJake Tapper, who cheerleaded Jack Smith's rush to indict Trump before the 2024 presidential election, is absolutely horrified that Ilhan "Omar" would be investigated now before an election.
@EricLDaugh
🚨 ILHAN OMAR UPDATE: SHE IS IN MAJOR HOT WATER - DOJ is building a case to strip her citizenship and ultimately DEPORT HER
- Her passport and phone were seized
- A federal grand jury sent out about a dozen subpoenas
- Possible additional charges being looked at: conspiracy and false statements
- Federal agents with HSI searched Omar's D.C.-area home under a search warrant
- The focus is reportedly her birthdate and the family's immigration records
- Her father brought the family to the U.S. from a refugee camp in 1995
- In 2019, her staff reportedly asked to change her listed birth year from 1981 to 1982, meaning citizenship might be invalid
- US Attorney Jeanine Pirro has a SEPARATE probe into Omar's financial disclosures This is the scandal she was hoping would NEVER COME. It's finally here! THE END RESULT MUST BE DEPORTATION, MINIMUM
Jake Tapper KNOWS Ilhan Omar is COOKED! 😂 Just look at his facial expressions while the CNN legal analyst is talking. 😭 https://t.co/ync2uSAvX0

Wild.— DC_Draino (@DC_Draino) October 15, 2026
Gerald PosnerThis woman says that there's no record than the man Ilhan "Omar" claims was her father, and through whom she obtained a fraudulent "derivative" citizenship, actually ever was a naturalized citizen at all. If he never actually became a naturalized citizen, he would have no citizenship through which Ilhan "Omar" could "derive" her own.
@geraldposner 3h Here's a question nobody is asking about the Ilhan Omar investigation. If authorities succeed in stripping her citizenship, could a Democratic president in 2028 reverse everything and put her back into Congress? The WSJ and other outlets report authorities are building a case to strip her citizenship over her 2000 naturalization. The Constitution requires House members to be citizens. No citizenship, no seat. But the criminal route (18 U.S.C. sec. 1425) has a 10-year statute of limitations and that ran long ago. The viable path is almost certainly civil denaturalization under 8 U.S.C. sec. 1451(a). That is a civil court judgment, not a criminal conviction, so even if the Democrats win the White House in 2028, the pardon power would not reach it. If there was a criminal conviction on different matter and a future president pardoned it, no one knows whether that would restore citizenship. It has never been tested. Naturalization is Congress's power, not the president's. And a pardon would not automatically hand back her seat. She would have to win it again. Granted, this is all years away. My legal DNA just likes to game out the possible endgame on high profile probes like this.
AJ Kern has done extensive research on Ilhan Omar’s citizenship verification. When an adult parent gains citizenship through the naturalization process, their minor children ‘derive’ citizenship through that parent. Since minors cannot naturalize independently and adults cannot derive citizenship from their parents, Ilhan Omar has repeatedly claimed that she ‘derived’ citizenship through her father as a minor at the age of 17.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) does not allow records requests to be processed for a living foreign-born person without their permission. However, the USCIS will process a record request for a deceased foreign-born person. Since Ilhan Omar’s father passed away in 2020, AJ Kerm submitted the request to the USCIS in June 2022, for her father’s records and she received a response on June 20, 2023. It turns out that the USCIS has no record of her father being a naturalized US citizen. Therefore, this is probably why the Biden Administration’s Justice Department launched an investigation into Ilhan Omar in June 2024, and why a Democrat judge signed off on a search for Ilhan Omar’s home. Of course, CNN, MSNBC, and Democratic politicians will never mention any of this because it does not fit their narrative. https://t.co/GZg0iw5QDM— Julie Perry (@Julie4Virginia) October 13, 2026
MS NOW’s Ken Dilanian has made a new defense for Rep. Ilhan Omar in a possible investigation into her: There will probably be a lot of cases of “fudged facts” if you look at everybody’s refugee and naturalization paperwork. https://t.co/XmOCoOGji7

one of the people whose minds Talarico was trying to change on abortion was a staunch Catholic theologian and professor. Yeah, good luck with that.

Omar was the sponsor of the Maintaining Essential Access to Lunch for Students (MEALS) Act during the lockdowns which allowed all this fraud to occur. Of course she was involved.
On another happy note, John Brennan is currently being grilled in front of a grand jury in St. Lucie Florida over his involvement in the grand conspiracy to deprive Trump of his civil rights. He is a target of the investigation not just a witness.

Dems won't lose anything. Her replacement in the House will be just as leftwing, if not more.
They should have removed her last cycle - run a heavily financed more controllable person in the primary.
But I think the DNC still doesn't know how to control the squad and were afraid what the other members would do.
Better to let Trump do it, especially if its messy...

BTW, the US is in a continuous "state of election flux"; there is no time for politics/election not to exist.
This dynamic is right up there with "Any critique of a Democrat/Progressive is racist". These arguments are more evergreen than evergreens themselves.

One of the things that has come out from all these investigations is that then of millions of dollars were sent back to Somalia through the Minneapolis airport and if you've flown through there you will know a lot of the workers are light bulb heads.
It has long been rumored that some of that money might have ended up with al Shabaab which is the Somalian branch of al Qaeda. I don't think that will energize a lot of people on the left.

OTOH and interesting: Somaliland officials and authorities strongly oppose her political stance. Because she backs a unified Somalia and opposes Somaliland's independent moves or agreements (such as the deal with Ethiopia), Somaliland leadership has sharply criticized her.

Anthony Fauci Blamed Trump for the Spread of the Completely-True Lab Leak Theory Fact
Trump rarely gets credit from the establishment, but here, his evil malignant dwarf nemesis gives him full credit for getting the truth out.
Anthony Fauci blamed President Donald Trump for the public's concern that the COVID-19 pandemic had emanated from a laboratory in Wuhan to which Fauci's institute had shipped funding and high-risk coronavirus experiments, newly released documents show. Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul on Wednesday released new pages of the daily diary that Fauci had stored on government servers with entries stretching from December 2021 to May 2022. The entries give the starkest view yet into Fauci's thinking as his preferred narrative around the pandemic's origins -- that it originated from a wet market in Wuhan -- began to crumble. By the end of 2021, scientists and journalists pursuing the so-called "lab leak theory" had evaded earlier censorship efforts, defied bullying in the scientific community and broken containment. Fauci often wrote in his diary about his intention to set the story straight in his forthcoming memoir. Rather than reflecting on his decisions to champion gain-of-function research that makes viruses more deadly in the lab, Fauci sought to portray the hypothesis that COVID had resulted from a lab accident as a Trump-backed conspiracy against him.It was later proved that EcoHealth did in fact illegally use Fauci's money to fund gain-of-function research. EcoHealth is now blackballed from receiving federal funding.Fauci faulted Trump for ordering the termination of a grant from Fauci's institute at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to EcoHealth Alliance, an infectious diseases nonprofit that discovered novel coronaviruses and enhanced them in lab experiments with the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV).
"****Very important issue to discuss in the book. The entire controversy with China as the source of the outbreak and the lab leak theory stems from the tension between Trump and China," Fauci wrote in a March 21, 2022.
This filthy despicable cocksucker.
"Please remember that when it was brought to the attention of Trump that the NIH was funding a grant at Wuhan where the outbreak was first recognized, Trump ordered, with no evidence to support any suspicion, that we cancel the grant," Fauci wrote.
Despite Fauci's contention that the termination had been unjustified, four years later EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak saw debarment by the Biden administration's Department of Health and Human Services. HHS said it sought to "protect the public interest" by ending the group's funding after evidence mounted of reckless biosafety practices and shifting statements to federal regulators about a delayed grant report covering the period immediately before the pandemic's outbreak. Fauci said that conditions had been placed on EcoHealth that "they essentially were not able to meet."

Fauci wanted a corona virus vaccine and approved the proposal to make one in Wuhan.
China screwed up and release it.
Fauci went to his partners at Pfizer and Moderna that told me they basically had the vaccine ready they'd all been working on. They lied. But he went with what they told him and put everything in on hiding how he created COVID but focused on how his partners had the cure with the clot shot.
So he knew and was lying about what COVID was and where it came from but intentionally he did believe the clot shot worked

In 1704, George Frideric Handel and Johann Mattheson almost died in a sword fight over who should conduct a Hamburg opera — but a metal button on Handel’s coat saved his life, and they later became friends
The incident happened in December 1704 in Hamburg, during the premiere of Mattheson’s opera Die Misfortune of Cleopatra (Die Unglück von Cleopatra)
Mattheson was both singing the role of “Anthony” and, according to tradition, expected to conduct from the harpsichord. Handel, who had been invited to fill in as conductor, refused to vacate the seat
Accounts differ on the exact trigger, but the most common version is that Handel would not give up the conductor’s position while Mattheson was on stage
Mattheson suggested they settle the matter outside, and the two young composers — Handel aged 19, Mattheson 23 — drew swords
Outside the theater, the two exchanged blows in a brief but intense fight
In one telling, Mattheson lunged with a thrust aimed at Handel’s heart, but the blade struck a large metal button on Handel’s coat instead of his chest
The crowd gasped, but Handel was unharmed.

I mean, these people rarely shower, rarely use deodorant, wipe their asses with their hands, then eat with their hands, and god only knows what their sex practices are like.
These are the last people you want anywhere near public health. Might as well put Jerry Sandusky in charge of youth outreach. Oh wait ....

Fauci is about 300 years old and has a ton of money, and a federal blanket pardon. So far, he's gotten away with everything, and experiences no feelings of guilt or regret. The question is, what can be done to punish him at this point?
He was killing people and torturing dogs long before covid. He got away with all that too.
What does he value? Take that away, and he will pay some kind of price.

My pet theory (see what I did there?) is that since Mohammed, earlier in life, was a caravan raider - a pirate - and naturally attacked caravans at night when they were asleep, the dogs would alert and sound the alarm. Hence when he 'invented' his religion, making dogs unclean was a given. Because he was a fucking murdering pirate, among other things.

And ever since, they still lean on teaching via youtube and screens. We (esp. my kids) are still being robbed of what was pre-covid, a decent public education. Just today, email from daughter's science teacher explaining all the wonderful things she's doing as a teacher:
"Students asked me to post a key to the study guide in Schoology. Done!
Students asked me to post a quiz game in schoology they could play. Done!
I was able to answer lots of questions they had during the last 10 minutes of class."
Bravo...*slow clap*
So are you personally teaching at any point, or answering questions after the games and videos did the teaching? Or in other words... "What...would you say...you do here???"

Trump Fines Bank of America $1.2 Billion Over Money Laundering for China
Bank of America is one of the worst offenders for closing bank accounts for conservative and religious groups, claiming that working for such groups causes them too much "reputational risk."
They debanked people to curry favor with the Biden gangsters. But working with China to launder money and evade sanctions? No reputation risk worth talking about.Update: Via Biden's dog sniffs a lot of marlarkey, a previous bank whistleblower who said that a fine that barely impacts BoA's profits is not enough. People --even the rich white collar corporate types that pay money to both parties for protection-- need to go to prison.
The Treasury Department said Tuesday it is fining Bank of America $1.2 billion for allegedly violating anti-money laundering and sanctions laws. The department accused the bank of failing to report and mitigate notable national security risks, including Chinese Money Laundering Networks and suspected "illicit finance along the southwest border." It also failed to report more than $5 billion in suspicious activity to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. ... The department said Bank of America also reached an $11.6 million settlement with its Office of Foreign Assets Control over "apparent violations of numerous sanctions programs, including on Iran, Russia, narcotics, and global terrorism." The $1.2 billion penalty includes $750 million that will go to the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which is the largest fine ever imposed by that agency.
Everett SternRelated: Chinese intel operative Neville Roy Singham and his communist wife are launching a pro-CCP propaganda tour. I haven't heard about this pair being debanked.
@EverettStern1 Dear Secretary Bessent
@SecScottBessent, My name is Everett Stern. In 2010 I was a compliance officer at @HSBC. From a back office in New Castle, Delaware, I watched billions of dollars move to drug cartels, sanctioned regimes, and terrorist organizations. The enemies of the United States. I documented it, I escalated it, and when the bank would not act, I took it to the @FBI, the @CIA, and eventually the @SECGov. The result was a $1.92 billion settlement. At the time, it was one of the largest in American history. It was also about five weeks of the bank's profit. Not one banker was charged. Not one went to prison. I paid a different price. I lost my career, my savings, and my place in the industry I had trained for. I was blacklisted. Every door in American finance closed at once. I slept on a camping cot in a 300 square foot apartment because I could not afford a bed, and I waited tables at @PFChangs to eat. I tell you this not for sympathy, but so you understand that I know exactly what it costs to do the right thing in American finance, and exactly how little the system does in return. I made that sacrifice because I believed it would change something. Yesterday, your department fined @BankofAmerica $1.2 billion for failing to report more than $5 billion in suspicious transactions, some of it tied by your own findings to Chinese laundering networks, narcotics, and the southwest border, alongside 475 apparent sanctions violations touching Russia, Iran, and global terrorism. The bank admitted it willfully violated the Bank Secrecy Act. Fourteen years after HSBC. A bank with "America" in its name. And once again, not one individual charged. Secretary Bessent, I want to say plainly what I believe you already know. The fines are not working. A fine is paid by shareholders, absorbed by the balance sheet, and forgotten by the next earnings call. Bank of America reported earnings this morning. Nobody who set the alert thresholds, nobody who decided the 2024 cease and desist could wait, nobody who chose the backlog over the law will lose a single thing they value. Their lives are untouched. That is the entire reason the behavior repeats. This is money laundering. This is blood money. Money that reaches a cartel buys fentanyl that kills Americans. Money that reaches a terrorist organization buys the next attack. This country has fought a war on drugs and a war on terror for decades, at enormous cost in lives and treasure, and all the while we have allowed the financing to flow through institutions we charter and regulate. Cut off the money and we win. We have never seriously tried. There is also a question of equal justice that I cannot let go. Before I walked into the FBI building to report HSBC, I stopped in front of the Great Seal on the wall and read the words engraved beneath it: "Justice is the defense of our liberty." I believed that. I still want to. But every day in this country, people go to prison for crimes that are nothing next to moving money for the people who want Americans dead. A suit, a title, and a corporate badge should not be a shield from the consequences that apply to everyone else. If a street dealer goes to prison for what he sells, the banker who moved the cartel's money should be standing next to him. I also want to raise something that is rarely said in these conversations. Why has no one inside Bank of America come forward the way I did? The answer is that everyone in American banking knows what happened to me, and to the whistleblowers who came after. The last person who spoke up is the only policy anyone believes. That is a culture problem, and it starts with leadership, in the banks and in the agencies that regulate them. This is not a political issue. It has spanned administrations of both parties. It is a national security issue, and I am asking you to treat it as one. Three things would change the math overnight. Refer individuals for criminal prosecution. Not the analyst in the queue. The executives who set the thresholds and chose the risk. One banker in handcuffs would do more than every fine in Treasury's history combined. End "too big to jail." An institution cannot be too big to fail and too big to jail at the same time. If it is the first, it must be held to a higher standard, not a lower one. And if Bank of America will not act as America's bank, review its charter. A national charter is a privilege granted on behalf of the American people. It should be conditioned on not moving money for the people trying to kill them. Secretary Bessent, you said yesterday that these actions send a clear message that even the biggest institutions are not above the law. With respect, the institution was never the problem. The people inside it are above the law, and they know it. Until that changes, I will keep writing letters like this one, and the next bank will keep paying the next fine. I gave up everything I had to stop this. I am asking you to use the power you have to finish it. Respectfully, Everett A. Stern

A California-based nonprofit with ties to the CCP and Neville Roy Singham embarked on a Chinese propaganda tour this week, telling attendees they could learn about the "revolutionary history" of the communist country while "marveling" at the socialist development in the country. On Sunday, CodePink, a 501(c)(3) registered in Marina del Rey, California, posted a video of co-founder Medea Benjamin in an airport discussing her trip to China. The video, which was posted in between separate posts bashing Columbus Day and propping up feminism, detailed how Benjamin will show how the communist country is different from "the one we keep hearing about in Washington." The following day, CodePink posted another clip of Benjamin outside a university in China lauding the safety of the country, saying enthusiastically that it is "amazing" an umbrella or bike can be left unattended in the region "without worrying about someone stealing it."
... "Explore China's revolutionary history, while marveling at high-tech infrastructure and modern socialist development," the event description reads. "Highlights include Red Memorials, Historical Re-Enactments and Museums, Socialist Infrastructure, and Rural Revitalization." ... Since 2017, Singham has funneled $278 million into a broad network of nonprofits, including CodePink, according to a Fox News Digital investigation. These groups regularly organize and participate in anti-ICE, anti-Israel and pro-Iran demonstrations.

But the reality is, these banks are so ginormously big that until Bessent starts nailing them with fines in the 100s of billions, if not trillions, it will barely leave a mark.
BoA has 5 trillion -- yes, with a "t" -- assets under management. The bank makes tens of billions in profit every year.
The $1.2B fine probably didn't even cover the profits that BoA made on all the illegal transfers.

Cool story bro, but I lost my career and everything I had and slept on a mattress in a 300x300 room and got a job waiting tables after I reported a fraud of similar scale. People who know what's happening in every damn bank in America know the same things I knew, and they know what happened to me, and they ain't gonna blow no whistles unless you drop with the fairy-ass fines and do something effective. ARREST PEOPLE OR NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.

Hi, someone here who actually lived in China for 10 years and not in a multi-million dollar mansion... Theft is of course RAMPANT in China. My wallet got stolen out of my backpack while I was playing pick-up basketball at a local playground... My Chinese girlfriend (secretary for a state-owned corporation who lived in a tiny apartment with her parents; nowhere near wealthy) had 3 bikes stolen from her, and someone snatched her purse out her bike basket while she was riding to work (which made her take the bus and quit riding her bike)... There were always reports about different pick-pocket schemes going on in the street markets... This is such a ridiculous f-ing statement by this cunt. Sure, VIOLENT crime is relatively rare there. But if this twat ever set foot on a common street or in a common market, she'd be robbed in under 5 mins...

For those that missed it.
CNN and MSNow were doing happy dances after President Trump said the execution wouldn't be livestreamed. After the mid-terms - we'll see. I'll be fine with pay-per-view.
Talarico's town hall on CNN was nicely choreographed and he came across as not-creepy and normal - for a Dem. He basically gave stock Dem answers designed to not scare the normies. As Lizzy commented, yeah, just lie to people until he gets in power. That seemed to be the strategy. I watch the first hour while doing dishes and cleaning the microwave.
Zerohedge had an article on 'student protests' spreading. Oh, I hope so. Let's get this on.
And if the bank people can't be executed, some poor lady on "Let's make a Deal" just won free movies for a year. That'd be a nice start for punishment.

Stop calling me Shirley. You may think this is a crime, until you realize who writes 99% of the banking laws and regulations, and who donates billions to politicians, and who hires armies of lobbyists, and who employs almost everyone who leaves government banking regulators, and who is so large and powerful they practically control the entire country.

Mad-Hercules - She Has The Perfect Offer😭
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ab5Mtu_UY3E
Surprisingly few commenters (both in Asmon's live feed and on Hercules's short) were hung up on her several mental illnesses; I guess that's just par for the course these days. Surprisingly many were hung up on her $100k debt, which if it's student debt is also par for the course. Commenters were suspiciously silent on her sobriety-as-achievement, while an accurate number were hung up on her being a thief, and no one noted her own suspicious silence on motherhood status.
But what really puts this over the top is almost a throwaway line near the end: Shrek roleplay. Everyone was puzzled. What does that even mean? It took me to the following day to realize, she means that she farts -- a lot -- a lot a lot -- so much that she hopes it won't be a boner-killer.

NEW: California-based federal judge Jinsook Ohta (Biden appointee) has ruled that the U.S. State Department must reinstate its Diversity Immigrant Visa lottery for fiscal year 2027 by Sunday.
The program offers permanent residency in the U.S. to 50,000+ applicants every year, typically from countries with lower immigration to the U.S. Many come from Africa.
The Trump admin suspended the program last year after a Portuguese national who came to the U.S. via the diversity lottery was suspected of a deadly shooting at Brown University & the murder of a MIT professor before taking his own life.

Posted by: Biff Pocoroba at October 15, 2026 12:55 PM (JzUSu)
I rather suspect that while a naval blockade would be the smarter play, China really wants to militarily crush Taiwan like a bug in order to exact revenge on the KMT for kicking their ass 90-odd years ago, forcing them to undergo the Long March in order to survive. The ChiCom victory in 1949 was only a partial victory, since the KMT escaped to Taiwan where the ChiComs couldn't get their hands on them.

Look on the bright side. Osama was dumped overboard into the ocean, so every time you flush the toilet, the runoff ends up in the same ocean, either directly or after being passed through a sewage treatment facility before being dumped into the nearest river. So in effect, you're pissing on Osama's grave.

They have the same goal, the destruction of Western Civilization. The difference is that commies don't really care about what happens afterwards as long as they get the opportunity to shoot a few kneeling Kulaks in the back of the neck before it's over.
The mohammedans actually have a plan for the future. Of course that plan involves the whole world living in huts without running water, dorking goats up the squeekhole, shitting in the street and wiping their ass with a bare hand because that's what Mo did 1400 years ago.

The Morning Rant: Coal Deserves A Second Look
[click to enlarge]
Coal kept the cost of electricity at an affordable level for over a century but idealistic policy decisions to close to 300 coal plants in the last 15 years have opened the door for higher and more volatile electricity prices. In 2010, the price of electricity in the U.S. was about 11 cents per kilowatt hour. By 2026 the price of electricity has increased 75% to 19 cents. And, according to the Department of Energy, rates could increase another 40% in the next four years. Meanwhile coal generation has dropped from 45% of America's power to barely 16% today and is projected to decline another 50% by 2030. In statistics this is called an inverse correlation. Simply put, the more we reduce coal generation the more we will pay for electricity. It is a sad irony that the very people who were instrumental in prematurely closing efficient coal plants, now whine about increases in the cost of electricity.Energy is life, and inexpensive and abundant energy drives economic growth unlike any other input. We created the greatest economic engine in human history by providing that energy, and much of it was coal! The increased use of petroleum correlates with the rise of the automobile, which makes engineering sense because gasoline and diesel are so energy dense. But the steel used to build those cars was made with coal energy, and using coal for industrial power and electrical generation is a perfect pairing with petroleum for transportation. Another reason for the decline of coal and its vilification is its history as the fuel for the rise of the West, and America in particular. It is linked with post-modern evils such as industrialization, colonialism, etc. It powered the great industries of the 19th century West, and is linked with the dominance of White Europeans over the rest of the world. So the crypto-communist environmental lobby has pushed to destroy our greatest source of energy, and the intended consequence is that electricity costs have skyrocketed! Because they want us to regress to the mean, and that mean is European summers during which tens of thousands of people die from the heat, because they are too poor to afford air conditioning. And look forward to wearing coats inside during the winter, because fuel will become so expensive that Jimmy Carter's cardigan will become a quaint glimpse of a better time!

CBC had a story about the feds commiting $100 for wind energy off the East Coast, completely ignoring all the issues surrounding wind energy documented so well by others.
Oh, and President Trump says the execution won't be live-streamed.

Many of the Eastern mines have closed and the Western mines are indeed strip mines. Western coal had just about pushed all the older Eastern mines into bankruptcy because the West's coal is predominately low sulfur while the East is not. Low sulfur is required to make the necessary scrubbers on emissions work.
Particulate regulation by the EPA is also something that many of the aging coal plants cannot meet without grandfathering. Same issue that required diesels to be cleaned up and required emission systems on diesel engines.
Add in all the costs of meeting environmental standards of today, I dunno if coal can be priced cheap enough for utility plants to return to using it for new plants.
In part, it is also because natural gas does fine in power generation, is quicker to start and stop, emits a lot less problematic emissions and has no problem meeting a lot of EPA standards without expensive emissions equipment.

They will not give that up easily and coal is the centerpiece of their demonization of carbon over the past three decades.
Meanwhile, China is producing new coal plants weekly.
The normies will not understand the full plan until their freezing in their homes by candlelight while reading the New York Times explaining to them how they need to cut back on energy use this month.

Because old coal power plants were in fact dirty. They dropped particulates down wind of those stacks. Same as being next to railroad tracks when coal was used for locomotives instead of diesel/electric.
New plants can be built that don't have that problem but require expensive and temperamental emissions scrubbers, etc. And that makes it easier for power companies to just turn to natural gas that does not have those problems.

We can, we can even turn it into coal gas as a nat gas substitute, but the process is kinda nasty. Coal gas sites from over a century ago are still EPA superfund type sites because of the nasty concentrated byproducts from that process.
Carbon is wonderfully complex and has its own specialty organic chemistry that takes advantage of that. But, not all processes that can be done actually pay out without either subsidies or some other tactic like mandated alcohol content in gasoline. Synthetic gasoline production was used by the Notsees and later by South Africa during it being sanctioned but were done more from desperation in lacking crude oil to refine than from economics.

You have to subsidize it if you want coal or get rid of the environmental regulations on it via the Clean Air Act. And that is the issue regarding new power sources--how much do you subsidize or require by legislative fiat that utilities and individuals have to use it.
In some cases, like national security, we can see that producing oil at home prevented us from the Middle East vetoing our actions by oil embargoes. But Trump is not subsidizing the petroleum industry to do it. It is economically efficient for us right now. We can move to producing more coal fired plants over time but the investment is expensive compared to nat gas and either ratepayers or governments will have to pay to spin those plants up.

The anthracite coal burns pretty clean, but I think that is mostly PA and OH areas. Can get it by the bag at Tractor Supply type places for $12 for a 40 pound bag, which makes about 16,200 BTUs. So if I needed 220,000 BTUs for the winter, I'd need ~14 bags, seems cheap, I may have done the math wrong.

Patents would be dead by now. 20 year limit. We know how to do it. South Africa used it prior to apartheid falling in the 1990's. It is just not price competitive and has problems with the leftover byproducts that can be quite toxic.
Again, we either subsidize it or require its use like ethanol by legislative fiat.
Actually, compressed natural gas is probably a better option under that circumstance and if you had to, you can make an ersatz natural gas aka coal gas from coal. Easier than distillation process. Many old cities in the US had coal gas plants.

We had a coal furnace back in the 50's when I was a kid. My dad worked midnights at a local factory, so my mom would go down to the basement, shake down the grates, and shovel some coal into the fire, making sure it was spread evenly. She would open the small vent on the furnace door to keep a constant draft all night. It was a boiler that made steam for the cast iron radiators. Steady heat all night. If I remember, we used around 9 or 10 tons of coal over the winter. We converted to oil in 1961. No more coal bin, no more shoveling coal.

A55 was all about eliminating gas and diesel. Claimed and proved 0 emissions until the EPA changed what an emission was. I think at the behest of the Onasis family.

I don't expect it to happen instantly.
But we just should not abandon coal like we are doing.
This shouldn't have happened to begin with, as we closed too many coal fired plants down that could have been modernized and we wouldn't be facing electricity price hikes like we have seen.
We could be investing in more hydropower, too, but the environmentalists can't stand a blocked river.

Energy production and use are textbook examples of tradeoffs. Lots of items can be 'burned' or in nuclear, split or fused, to produce energy. But each source has its own cost/benefit analysis that makes it quite complex to just get the economics correct.
And you get nat sec problems when you rely on cheap energy that suddenly is no longer available due to crises abroad. And then you are properly f*cked just like Germany is right now. They shut down their nukes and went all in on solar/wind when it did not make sense literally but could do so because they imported cheap Russian nat gas.
Now that is gone, and they are stuffed.

Simpler, as was stated countless times before....
LIBs plead for a Morality which holds COMPROMISE as its standard of Value, making it possible to judge Virtue on the basis of the number of Values which one is willing to Betray.
"Sooner or later you figure out that pragmatism and compromise are principles in a democracy. It's not selling out your convictions." -- Clinton'2005
It's PRECISELY THAT for people who are not Purposfully Morally Blind.
MORAL VANDALISM is the sine qua non of the LIBS, even as they prepare the next rollout of both CLINTON's to find new targets, to level the plane and tilt the wings to inflict maximum damage.
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

Public executions have been a European thing since the Greeks & Romans at least. The French used it as their main form of entertainment for awhile in the late 1700s.

Had Bill Clinton have even the smallest shred of integrity he wouldn't have told the BlackHawk down families it was their own fault that they were dead when in fact it was Les Aspin who denited them the armor support they requested.
Had Bill Clinton been capable of tearing his eyes away for one moment from the superbowl to give the go code for OBL to be taken out when they had the opportunity ... ibid.

I have often wondered how they think they will hold on once the money system collapses and the world runs on hard resource acquisition and the ability to hold on to it. No offense but the tech titans will get taken out within the first few months by the biggest and baddest of their security teams, who will build their own "governing system" and who will distribute the spoils - the women - as appropriate. Misogynistic complaining will get you a beating. Continued complaining will get you thrown out of the compound where you will die of exposure and get eaten by a wolf.

I agree pretty much. Feudal lords got to be the top dog because they earned it originally and the whole system required heirs to go through complex military training and leading troops into battles to keep it. It was not until much much later that these feudal lines became decadent in softer ages than the founders had.

These panels once formed the inner and outer faces of polyptych wings, with the Annunciation serving as the exterior and Christ Carrying of the Cross, with the Crucifixion and The Resurrection, with the Pilgrims of Emmaus (1975.1.119A-B) the interior. Painted by Gerard David in the early years of the sixteenth century, the pictures reveal the influence of the artist’s fifteenth-century predecessors on his compositional style and palette. Although it is possible that the wings once flanked a single painted panel component, thus forming a triptych, it is also conceivable that they could have been elements of a more complex multimedia altarpiece with carved sections surrounded by two-dimensional painted panels. The Lehman wings were, possibly very early in their existence, linked to a painting of the Lamentation that was also created in the David workshop and which is now in the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

Two days ago, the lovely and art-loving Mrs naturalfake and I went to the Meadows Museum of Art on the SMU Campus.
It's dedicated to Spanish and South American art from the 10th century through the 20th.
Mostly, religious art and portraits. Folks like Picasso as well.
The religious art had some Annunciation paintings, but more paintings depicting the Immaculate Conception, Madonna and Child.
And since in Ye Olde Days the paintings were hung in Church to represent difficult Christian concepts since most folk didn't read.
The oddest one was a painting that tried to depicted the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Ghost),
which depicted the Trinity as a 3-headed Jesus merged together and sharing four eyes.
Which apparently disturbed most people, and was condemned by the Church and ordered destroyed, and that interpretation banned as well.

Gerard David
Gerald David was renowned as a master colorist, his religious scenes are characterized by serene, calm atmospheres, luminous tones, and quiet spirituality. (Wikipedia)
Gabriel was another Archangel with roles in major religions:
• Christianity: Known for the Annunciation, where he appeared to the Virgin Mary to announce that she would conceive and bear Jesus. He also foretold the birth of John the Baptist to Zechariah and is traditionally associated with the trumpet of Judgment Day.
• Islam: Revered as Jibrīl (or Jibrail), the chief angel who acted as the divine medium who revealed and transmitted the Quran to the Prophet Muhammad.
• Judaism: Appears in the Book of Daniel to interpret the prophet's visions and is viewed alongside Michael as a guardian of the Jewish people.
Celebrated on September 29 (Feast of the Archangels) in Western Christianity, and March 26 and July 13 in Eastern Orthodoxy.

One of the earliest recorded uses of henna for hair is found on Egyptian mummies, such as Ahmose-Henuttamehu (circa 1574 BCE) and mummies from Thebes around 1000 BCE, whose hair was stained red using henna.
In the 1950s, Lucille Ball popularized the "henna rinse" through her character Lucy Ricardo on I Love Lucy.

The angel of the Lord declared unto Mary. And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.
Hail Mary, full of grace...
Behold, the handmaid of the Lord. Be it done unto me, according to thy Word.
Hail Mary, full of grace...
And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.
Hail Mary, full of grace.
Pray for us, o holy Mother of God.
That we may be worthy of the promises of Christ.

For behold, from this time on all generations will count me blessed.
49“For the Mighty One has done great things for me;
And holy is His name.
50“AND HIS MERCY IS UPON GENERATION AFTER GENERATION
TOWARD THOSE WHO FEAR HIM.
51“He has done mighty deeds with His arm;
He has scattered those who were proud in the thoughts of their heart.
52“He has brought down rulers from their thrones,
And has exalted those who were humble.
53“HE HAS FILLED THE HUNGRY WITH GOOD THINGS;
And sent away the rich empty-handed.
54“He has given help to Israel His servant,
In remembrance of His mercy,
55As He spoke to our fathers,
To Abraham and his offspring forever.”

Therefore Israel will be abandoned until the time when she who is in labor bears a son, and the rest of his brothers return to join the Israelites.
He will stand and shepherd his flock
in the strength of the Lord,
in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God.
And they will live securely, for then his greatness
will reach to the ends of the earth.”

Another argument over night, so here is the math.
Ohio to date is 245,000 IPEV and 74,500 AB. Total of 320,000 EV.
In 2022 there were 1,392,767 EVs.
To match 2022 1,072,767 additional EVs need to be returned.
In 2022 92% of ballot requests were returned. Since there are 657,054 current requests, and 74,500 AB returned, there could be 520,789 (595,289 - 74,500) additional AB come in, to match the 2022 return rate.
If this happens then IPEV needs to make up 551,997 votes to close the gap. This is 35,935 votes per day over the remaining 15 IPEV days.
Current IPEV is 35,071 per day, so IPEV is lagging 2.5%. This is assuming that IPEV does not need to compensate for AB at all.
AB return is averaging 10,642 per day. To make up for unreturned ballots that needs to increase to a 26,039 per day average. AB is lagging 59%
If we roughly assume that mail return stays about the same and that IPEV needs to pick up the slack, then the IPEV rate needs to go up to 61,584 per day, meaning it would currently be lagging 43%.
If you are emotionally invested in Ohio matching the 2022 early vote, you are hoping that there are a lot of ballots in the mail.

Exactly. And for the EU Summit -
EU News, In part, Zelenskyy ‘betrayed’: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who will join the summit tomorrow, said on Wednesday that his country is losing a key ally in the US and admitted feeling “betrayed” by Donald Trump, as relations between Kyiv and Washington hit a new low, my colleague Sasha Vakulina reports.
Asked by British broadcaster Piers Morgan whether Ukraine is losing American support, Zelenskyy replied: “Yeah, but not because of us. We can't be weak.”
“It's painful when President Trump chooses one side, not our side,” he said. Asked whether he felt betrayed, Zelenskyy answered: “Really, yes,” although he stressed that the situation was more complicated than his personal feelings.
US eyes frozen assets: Meanwhile, the FT also reports that US negotiators have proposed that European countries unfreeze some of Russia’s immobilised state assets and transfer them to a financial vehicle controlled by Washington as a means of unblocking stalled peace talks.

No voter registration in OH, so the closest is precinct analysis.
@TonerousHyus is doing that. Follow him. Essentially, Dems seem to be running a couple of points better than 2024 in OH so far. Which means...a deep red state is still a deep red state.
Dems always outvote Republicans in early vote in every state. It's like worrying about Mississippi because Jackson votes Democrat.
What matters is how close the margin gets by the end of early voting, and how much Republicans win the election day vote (which they always do).
But, PA doesn't have any major federal elections, especially statewide like a senate race, so it'll be more susceptible to overall turnout advantages of the out of power party.

Ohio being a swing state is a remnant of 20 years ago, Brown recently losing as an incumbent 2 years ago, and a polling industry that has a proven record of not being able to (or refusing to) accurately reach rural working class voters at such a level that it's been throwing off polling by double digits for years now.
The only way it works is if there will be depressed rural voting and the youth will turnout at higher levels, like the 2025 gubernatorial elections in NJ and VA, but those are effectively special elections that midterm senate elections won't mimic.

The Morning Report — 10/15 /26
“They’re not after me, they’re after you, and I just happen to be standing in the way.”And now, as we all know that was not mere hyperbole, was it?!
We already knew that Jack Smith, the ‘special prosecutor’ appointed to target Trump, had been spying on multiple members of Congress, but the latest reports show a wide net that had gathered in every donor even if he or she had only put in a buck or got a hat. We already knew that Jack Smith, the ‘special prosecutor’ appointed to target Trump, had been spying on multiple members of Congress, but the latest reports show a wide net that had gathered in every donor even if he or she had only put in a buck or got a hat. Ex-special counsel Jack Smith obtained personal information on 639,000 Republican donors, voters and supporters — including some who contributed as little as $1 or bought “red MAGA hats” — according to subpoena returns obtained by a Senate Republican committee. Dates of birth, home addresses, email addresses, Republican party registration, information about credit cards or employment history were also hoovered up. That included names of Republican campaign aides and volunteers, as well as party donors who contributed anywhere between $1 and $1,000. Information on red Make America Great Again hats was also shared, including the buyers’ names and home addresses.
And that puts this story in a very disturbing light
Nine of the country's biggest banks spent five years running an outrageous campaign to cut conservatives, Christians, pro-lifers, and Trump supporters out of the financial system, and the federal government now has the receipts. . . The banks leaned on the SPLC’s bogus hate-group designations again and again. That's the same SPLC federal prosecutors indicted in April on fraud and money-laundering charges for allegedly bilking donors out of millions, and the same group FBI Director Kash Patel has called a "partisan smear machine." WePay closed a religious organization's account after the SPLC branded it an "extremist hate group," and employees described it internally as a "[r]ight wing religious conservative non profit with strong anti LGBTQ rhetoric." WePay also killed an account raising money for a "devout Christian's" legal challenge to anti-discrimination laws. . . "Under the Biden administration, banks could face greater supervisory pressure to move away from lending to the firearms industry," a Wells Fargo reputation-risk review of a prospective firearms client warned. . . "It is appalling that these banks targeted American consumers for their political, social, or religious beliefs that did not align with the Biden Administration or its leftist allies… Many of those targeted were supporters of President Trump," CFPB Acting Director Mark Paoletta said. "These thuggish tactics… have no place in America."Not that the banks or other elements of the private sector feared governmental pressure, many of hem are whole or in part fellow travelers of the Anti-American Democrat/Left so they were eager and willing to be the cutting edge of the razor that decapitated their enemies — the AMERICAN people. Whatever business they might lose would no doubt be made up by commie politicians with fat bailouts and handouts. Of course those of us that could not be silenced this way faced the utterly corrupted and bastardized criminal justice system, weaponized to destroy anyone and everyone who was deemed an enemy of the DC junta, as we thoroughly witnessed in the wake of the Malig-Nancy Pelosi engineered January 6th phony Insurrection. I'm not sure but there might still be innocent people rotting in the DC gulag and for sure there are two martyred women, Roseanne Boyland and Ashli Babbitt, murdered at the hands of Pelosi's Stormtroopers with badges. Of course with stormtroopers like BLM and Antifa, the Democrats in elective office don't need anyone with no steen-keeng badges!
The Florida Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate says history is “messy,” explaining why she honors cop killers, including Assata Shakur. Democratic Socialists of America member Angie Nixon is running against Senator Ashley Moody this year in the special election to finish out Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s term. Nixon has faced fire for her bookstore, “Cafe Resistance,” which pays homage to Shakur. “Who I had on my walls were civil rights leaders that wind up like getting convicted or like tried for like, you know, robbery or killing police officers – just all types of things,” Nixon said during an interview. She accused Sen. Moody’s campaign of sending a tracker to heckle her. She said some of the criminals were “set up” before adding, “Not all, right? Maybe. I don’t know. Possibly. A lot of them maintain their innocence.” Nixon continued: But it was Assata Shakur. It was Angela Davis. Like it was all these different people in the wall. And then the guy came in and he tried to like just trash and say I’m celebrating cop-killers and I’m like, it’s history. Without irony, she added: “We don’t know our history.”You know what else is messy? torture chambers and mass graves which as I have asserted many times is exactly what this dick-less Nixon and her ilk have in mind for all of us if they ever have half the chance. It's why I kind of wince at essays like this.
As I was scrolling through Twitter/X/Whatever looking for videos of Antifa getting bopped (because they are hilarious), it occurred to me that today's filthy communists are a far cry from the trained, maniacal Marxists our fathers and grandfathers squared off with decades ago.First, it's worth noting that at first everyone laughed at Hitler, the little corporal and his funny mustache. And then look what happened to most of Europe's Jews and most of Europe. Sure, blue-haired trannies and men with boobs are funny-looking. But then when the Molotov cocktails, bricks, hate-shakes, fists and bullets start flying it's not so funny anymore. And now they can count on 1.5 billion Muslims across the globe to have their back, and for sure however many million right here in the US of A.
Our forefathers stood nose-to-nose against dangerous Marxists who were trained to kill them. If my grandad knew that today's commies have traded in their AK-47s for breast implants, he'd smack me upside my head for not punching the lipstick off "Amanda" (a man, duh!) for twerking in a classroom full of kids. Let's face it: we have it easy. And as of now, all we have to do to combat communism is vote. But if things do get hot, these are the new wave of Marxists we will have to deal with, and frankly, we have it way easier than our antecedents.
How is it our nation's voters are allowing it to be turned over to its socialist enemies? Western Europe will not stop the mass infiltration of Muslims into their nations, and indeed now of their governments. Today’s Democrat party is doing nothing to stop itself from being infiltrated and captured by far-left (admitted) socialists and Marxists. Furthermore, it does not appear that American voters will do much to prevent the Democrat-socialists from taking over their government. What would it take for someone — anyone -- to effectively fight back, resist, or even do much of anything to prevent these existentially threatening developments?Backing up to the article before the aforementioned wherein the author implores us to get out and vote, yes for sure, but at some point voting even more harderer ain't gonna cut the mustard. And considering Michigan and its elections are still run by the twisted coven of Wretched Whitmer, Jocelyn Benson and Dana Nessel, the thievery that stole the state for Biden 6 years ago will ensure that El-Sayed is its next Senator.
Meanwhile, as we await Nidal Hasan's execution, I'd like to see Hasan sandwiched between Jack Smith and Anthony Fauci, and all three dispatched simultaneously to the Infernal Reaches. Speaking of which, I give you this cheery item to underscore who and what we're dealing with...
Iowa, smackdab in the middle of America. Home of the Field of Dreams. Iowa, a land of farms and small towns and pastoral beauty… of county fairs and farm shows… and churches and generations of upright, God-fearing citizens. Yet, in one small town, something remarkably grotesque happened last week. At a city council meeting at Ottumwa, a man rose to offer a prayer to Satan. He was permitted to do this according to a January 2026 council resolution about free speech. Consenting to this exhibition amounted to moral dereliction.Yeah, just politics as usual, why am I overreacting?!

On Wednesday, Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman sounded the alarm about President Donald Trump’s plan to "punish" the U.S. during the final two years of his term. According to Krugman, Trump is preparing to take a page from two of history’s most terrible tyrants.
"By the middle of March 1945," writes Krugman, "even Adolf Hitler knew that the war was lost. Soviet forces were within 45 miles of Berlin. American forces had crossed the Rhine and were well on their way to encircling the remaining German defenders. But Hitler didn’t believe that he had failed. He believed that he had been failed by the German people. So on March 19 he issued the 'Decree concerning demolitions in the Reich territory,' which has come to be known as the Nerobefehl or Nero decree. It ordered the destruction of Germany’s own infrastructure -- supposedly to deny that infrastructure to the Allies, but the obvious purpose was to punish his own country." While the order was never carried out, according to Krugman, it serves as a warning for how Trump will respond after his party takes a beating in the midterms – an effort the president is already ramping up.

On Wednesday, Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman sounded the alarm about President Donald Trump’s plan to "punish" the U.S. during the final two years of his term. According to Krugman, Trump is preparing to take a page from two of history’s most terrible tyrants.

The "political" part was dropped under *biden and it was just about plain, hateful revenge.
Our political betters in the GOP don't seem to realize that simply pointing out the obvious isn't going to cut it anymore. All it takes to wipe the smirk off Jack Smith's face is to throw him in prison while "the issue is sorted out."
Maybe take a year or two to do it. J6 demonstrated that an administration hell bent on revenge, will get revenge. GOP doesn't seem to want it. Which isn't surprising.

But not the collectivism of the means of production, the command economy, where labor becomes chattel of the state and the state can dispose of this "property" at the whims of The Party. Where "Rights" are dissolved and replaced by arbitrary ad hoc privileges conditionally bestowed upon favored identify groups a/o party members by the State.
Because the founders of this Country characterized roads as part of a Constitutional Republic—a very far cry from this bullshit definition of "Socialism". Our community's "fire station" is a metal building, staffed by volunteers and equipment bought at auctions with donated money. The government schools are an abomination to God and Man.

Nope. Regular Starlink is not permitted to be used for military purposes in the first place, and it hasn't been turned off.
What got turned off is StarSHIELD, a service run by the US government that runs on Starlink.
What's the difference?
Starlink is like your ISP.
Starshield is like Facebook (i.e., a service that runs on the underlying internet infrastructure).
Musk has no direct control over Starshield.
What happened is that the Ukes got caught using Starshield in a manner not permitted by their agreement with the US, so the feds booted them off.

When you look at the 20th century totalitarian states, one stands out for the ubiquity, subtlety, and sophistication of its mechanisms of oppression, and that is East Germany under Erich Mielke. He was the master of social control by an omniscient State.
His methods were amazingly effective - until they weren't. Though, by that time, nothing was effective anywhere in the Communist world anymore. The whole Soviet bloc was simply overtaken by reality.
But those methods were also unique, innovative and audacious.
So unique, that the striking similarities between his system and ours strongly suggests that our organs of state security directly modeled their methods on his.
I think they looked at the GDR and said "with our technology, know-how, and creativity, we can make all this work on a much grander scale."

Is there anyone, anyone at all in Hollywood who regards children as something other than young, potential fuckholes?

I did have on the CNN Talarico town hall yesterday while doing dishes and cleaning the microwave. I had him on for 55 minutes.
He did what he had to do - come across as normal, recite talking points and not creep people out and he did that well. The "don't be creepy as hell" meds he was taking kicked in.
I really think the Dems should just have a broad range of standard answers to questions about the economy, immigration, abortion, etc that they should just parrot out to appeal to the normies. It could all be lies, but their base knows that. I honestly feel that's what Talarico did.
All his answers were reasonable sounding to anyone who doesn't know anything about him Even the Christianity stuff didn't have fireworks. But it was CNN. You know like all political events, it was carefully staged and crafted.
Fortunately, CNN only has 700,000 viewers, they're not all in Texas and anyone who may have been swayed probably had better things to watch.

I don't know what suddenly changed, but it's gotten very deadly and dangerous to be an islamic regime figure in S&B.
What does all of this mean?
1) The islamic regime is losing control.
2) Regime thugs used to feel safe and protected. Now they don't. Psychologically this will do serious damage, especially to lower ranking demoralised basijis who aren't receiving their blood money salaries anymore due to sanctions.
3) If this keeps up, the islamic regime will have to send large forces from other regions to go fight in S&B. I shouldn't have to explain that this will benefit the rest of Iran when the next uprising happens.

National Grouch Day.
National Grouch Day arrives every October 15, honoring the spirit of Oscar the Grouch and encouraging everyone to embrace their inner grump. This is a day to freely complain, be irritable, and wallow in misery without judgment. Take this opportunity to process negative emotions, share relatable jokes, and connect with others over life’s minor annoyances.

Won't be a problem much longer. Apparently the latest "women destroying society" trend on social media is women talking about how they get an abortion every time they're pregnant with a boy.

What was Screwtape looking for? "Thou shall not kill the infant in the womb?"
The nearly entire history of human existence has been one where people have no intrinsic value. Such even in Exodus 21:22-25 where a woman who is truck miscarriages, the remedy is a monetary penalty—reinforcing the idea that people are chattel.
The difference is that Christians view all of humanity through the lens of Imago Dei. Even the ancient world understood inheritance and continuation of the blood lines as something that is highly values. The heir and a spare is real, and has existed since expulsion from The Garden. Thus, Scriptures would say that a man is blessed with a "full quiver" meaning that blessings are to those who have a large family. The Abrahamic Covenants emphasized having sired a mighty nation since that too was highly coveted.
So when Screwtape emphasizes abortion, he is anti-human, anti-Imago Dei, anti-blood lines, anti-civilization, and he desires that people are stripped of any blessing from God.

Since no one else has, the quick, in this instance, are those physically alive. Christ's appearing is the same occurance as His coming.
A few of the places this is spoken of would be Matt 24:29-31, 1Thess 4:16 - 5:2, Rev 6:12-17 and Isaiah 13:9-13. There are a number of other.
There are a number of eschatological viewpoints. Unfortunately the more we'll known ones either ignore verses, or take them out of the context of the passage, or symbolize passages away instead of taking them as stated.

My HOA sent me a letter requesting that I stop handing out full-size candy bars for Halloween this year.
-Fun-size bars are usually 15–25¢ each.
-Full-size are around 75¢–$1.
Most people give out 2–3 fun-size anyway, so the real difference is often only a few cents per kid.
Am I crazy, or is it weird for an HOA to police this?

A guess?
This has given the neighborhood a reputation for candy generosity, attracting people from across town to drive there with their kids to get the good stuff.
I've had that in the past (former residence), where the immigrant families flooded the neighborhood on Halloween, and we'd have not just the kids, but each parent and grandparent grab candy, even had a kid slip in the house to check out our son's toys.

Full-Size Candy Bars are de rigueur, my dear!
You will actually be ostracized if you give out "fun-size" bars and/or run out of candy.
So, everyone spends 4-5 hours every Halloween giving out Full-Size Candy Bars to the Doors who flood in their neighborhood. That equates to hundreds if not in the thousands.

"Nine of the country's biggest banks spent five years running an outrageous campaign to cut conservatives, Christians, pro-lifers, and Trump supporters out of the financial system, and the federal government now has the receipts. . ."

Because the Supreme Court gave the executive branch broad authority to terminate TPS, immigrant advocacy groups and congressional allies are pushing for legislative "fixes" to bypass the presidency and provide permanent status: The Dream and Promise Act of 2026 (H.R. 1589). The SECURE Act.
Country-Specific Shield Bills, i.e., Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) introduced a bill in October 2026 to legally extend TPS protections for Ukrainians through 2029, isolating them from executive termination. Similar legislative efforts, such as Senate Bill S.4814, have been introduced to create a three-year extension and a permanent residency track for Haitians.
The Afghan Adjustment Act is bipartisan U.S. legislation designed to create a direct pathway to lawful permanent residency for over 76,000 Afghan evacuees who arrived in the U.S. under temporary humanitarian parole following the August 2021 withdrawal.

Audacy Radio, Talk 1370 AM, James Talarico faces voters on abortion, energy and Paxton at Fort Worth CNN town hall
In part, "Democratic U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico took direct questions from Texas voters Wednesday night at a CNN and Jubilee town hall in Fort Worth, defending his positions on abortion, immigration, energy and corruption while Republican opponent Ken Paxton stayed away."
While a lot of Q&As with certain voters won't help him, "Near the end, Talarico said he did not want people to vote solely against Paxton. He then called the attorney general “the most corrupt politician in Texas,” citing claims about increases in net worth and home ownership, and framed the choice as one between a senator who puts money in voters’ pockets or one who puts it in his own, according to The Dallas Morning News. CNN reported that Paxton was invited to the town hall but did not attend; the invitation remains open."
"Paxton’s campaign announced an 18-day “Come and Take It” bus tour beginning Saturday in Rockwall and ending at the Alamo on Election Day. Early voting in Texas starts Monday. ..."

You don't say.According to the cybersecurity professionals CSO spoke with, one of the biggest cybersecurity failures by the frontier AI labs is the lack of implementation of tried-and-true containment practices that stretch back to the 1990s, such as setting up secure sandboxes that would effectively bar agents from escaping their test environments.
Oh, you do say."These are things that we've been dealing with for years," Rob T. Lee, chief AI officer and chief of research at SANS Institute, tells CSO. "There's no reason why every single time this happens, it's, 'Oops, we don't know how they got out.'"
Don't be unreasonable; it's not like these are billion-dollar companies we're talking about.

“Not just necessarily sitting members of Congress, but anyone, and especially members of the immigrant community,” Wriston said. “No one is safe. No one.”
That train left the station at least 25 years ago.
I notice how none of these people remember 2016 and the FBI/CIA and everybody else was spying, legally, on a presidential campaign.
I seem to remember Democrats being very much in charge in 2016 so that probably explains The American Prospect's absent-mindedness.

That's a big problem for anybody who doesn't use their laptop for just Google web apps.
Schools aren't going to pay $1300 for laptops that they can get the same basic experience on for $750. Students don't need, and shouldn't get, OLED screens and state of the art APUs.
So, other than some businesses that are nailed down to Chomebooks and want to pay more for better quality hardware I really can't see what the widespread use case is for Googlebooks.

So if you decide someone is stupid, it means you’re not thinking, which is not being smart.
Therefore, smart people don’t think others are stupid.
I don't assume people are stupid.
Being a human who has made plenty of stupid mistakes I recognize people can do stupid things who aren't stupid.
It happens to the best of us.
But if you look around this world and don't realize there is a sizable population of truly stupid people on the planet, and that can be determined with absolute certainty by smart people, then you are fucking stupid hiding behind a veil of politically correct politeness.

It's cart before the horse. *Is* it fucking stupid? Can i articulate why it's fucking stupid beyond simply saying it bothers me or annoys me? Is there some sound basis for the statement?
Judging if you're allowed to say a statement in a vacuum, based purely in the internal structure of the statement separated from the external validity of the statement, is pointless. Unless you've demonstrated that the statement is itself a false tautology, it's just rhetorical tattle-tale-ing.

FAKE NEWS MSNBC JUST TOLD AMERICA KASH PATEL "LANDED IN RUSSIA" TO MEET THE FSB.
REALITY CHECK: He's at Liberty University. Right now.
Of course Ken Dilanian went on air and claimed "two people familiar with the matter" told him the FBI Director touched down in Moscow for a two-day trip to Saint Petersburg, hosted by the FSB.
No FBI confirmation. No White House. Just "two people familiar." And the second it aired, Russian state media and half the left ran with it, treason, collusion, Patel is Putin's man.
The man is in Lynchburg, Virginia. MSNBC never checked where the FBI Director physically was before they told the world he was in Moscow.

A federal appeals court has permanently nixed a California law that would have forced ICE agents to wear identification, saying that the state can’t regulate actions by the federal government.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday agreed with the Trump administration that the California law violated the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause by interfering with federal officers’ duties.

And who's going to hire me at anything above entry-level wages to practice a state's law I know nothing about? When I started in CA, I got $20/hour for the first 6 months, and no bennies. It went up to $25.... Law is not like medicine. An appendix in CA is an appendix in all the other states. Law is entirely contrived. And then there's the procedural stuff that takes years to learn to do right. Nah. Not realistic.

I recall an MMORPG... I think it was EverQuest II... where they introduced the ability to customize your UI. The more involved changes took scripting-level work that not everyone had the time, ability, or inclination to do. One guy went on a programming/design rampage and made so many popular UIs that the company hired him for his obvious, proven talent.

Anyone who's developed nearly any kind of software knows this. This part of software isn't rocket science. You make a point of assuring you understand your test environment, because you'll never be able to tell if your software works otherwise.
If you ask me, these "escapes" are not accidental. The AI bros WANT the capability to evade barriers. (And their gubbmint customers likely want it too.)

They cannot "go rogue."
They are specifically programmed to try and get out. It's part of what they are. Despite being called "artificial intelligence" they are not intelligent. Despite being called "agents" they have no actual agency.
The fact the programmers helped them act out their training via lax security isn't even a revelation, IMO. It is pathetic, however.

Wednesday Night ONT - October 14, 2026 [TRex]
Good evening Horde! The time has come for mid-week shenanigans of the overnight variety. The bar is open and fully stocked. Step up and place your order.
Welcome to the Wednesday night ONT which means another edition of random overnight fun and games. Pull up a chair and join the fun. Good will offerings of amusing puns are encouraged. Pants are optional. Be nice to your fellow commenters and AoS contributors. If you're a troll, go away. This is a Tucker, Candace, Megyn, and Bill Kristol free zone. Please. [Top photo: Consuaga, Tennessee]
I had a two-hour job. Three things, from a pallet that had been leaning in my workshop for a year. So naturally I spent the whole day avoiding it. First I built a tool to help me build the thing. Then I made rhubarb compote. Then there was lunch, which became the whole family, which is how lunch usually goes here. The cat supervised. The pallet waited. This is a video about wasting a day, and about how a day you waste with the people around you might be the only kind worth keeping. It's also about sawhorses. Mostly the sawhorses.Enjoy!
Correspondence can be sent to moronhobbies at protonmail dot com where it will be promptly sorted and processed. Are you lurking ????

Was the bra hanging on the chandelier from the padded room? I'm so confused.
Which reminds me - there was a young lass, Glenna by name, who sat at her desk in her dorm room, door open and coed building, with nary any clothing on from the waist up.
She had quite a following. Ah, the 70's.

Sometimes go out to El Centro to catch the Blue Angels' first show of the season, first Saturday in March. That's their winter training home. One year it was 97 degrees. First weekend in March. Guess that's one reason they can grow multiple crops of lettuce each year.

It may not have been that the Russians were officially involved, there is a chance that Tucker and everyone else affected were buying bot-driven engagement and the company (companies) they were using were working through Yandex as the cheapest data centers.
"buying likes" for online content is a current scandal, it is used to drive engagement for the advertising metrics, and justify the prices charged for advertising.

There was a 3 mile long drop of semi-solid manure on a state highway, that caused delays for 3+ hours, and I can't find any story about it. If I hadn't heard it on my scanner, I wouldn't have known why it happened.
I suspect the fire department, and others, who had to clean it up were ok with the cloudy weather in the upper 60s, instead of sunny and high 90s.

Engaging characters, lots of humor, and some impressive mechanical skills. The road trips are quite a revelation.

It looks like a thriving city in Northern Alberta, like Grande Prairie, or Peace River, each of which have major river bridges. The forest and countryside is very similar.

Sometimes go out to El Centro to catch the Blue Angels' first show of the season, first Saturday in March. That's their winter training home. One year it was 97 degrees. First weekend in March. Guess that's one reason they can grow multiple crops of lettuce each year.
* nothing against that area, just a nickname, as Americans love to create nicknames, usually deleterious, for everything. Before these areas became so crowded and developed, they were pretty nice - lots of citrus orchards, beautiful mountains, quiet.

I guess there's more than one. In the Southern California context it's Riverside/San Bernardino, not the Imperial Valley, which is not to be confused with the Chrysler Imperial, which is a car, not a valley.
Chrysler might also be a good name for a cat. Do you have a cat? I don't have a cat, or a dog right now.
Am I rambling? Cause it feels like I'm rambling...not to be confused with a Rambler which was also a car but combined with Nash and Jeep the become AMC which was eventually bought out by Chrysler....
I'll shut up now....
KFRG (K-Frog) is the leading Country Station there.

It ended with her strapped down in a body brace chair in the the police holding funny farm section. It was ... surreal.

Spending the next week or so moving back into the house. Renovations are nearly done, although we still have to use the shower in the camper for a bit. Got the bed moved into the new bedroom, chairs, dressers, closet with shelves, etc. Starting to move stuff into the kitchen, although we still don't have the plumbing in place entirely. Fridge is in, range, still working on the dishwasher (which I haven't had in two damned years!!), and the ice maker in the bar is still waiting.
But, it's beautiful, and the good part is that I will be taken out of it in a pine box, so I'm happy.
Hot tub? Not quite yet, it's in Fairbanks, but soon. Soon.

Inland Empire: Riverside and Sen Berdino Counties. Zappa, of course, made the best reference to the Inland Empire in "Billy the Mountain":
"Word just in to the KTTV news service undeniably links
This mountain and his wife to drug abuse
And pay-offs as part of a San Joaquin Valley smut ring!
However, we can assure parents in the Southern California area
That a recent narcotics crack-down
In Torrance, Hawthorne, Lomita
Westchester, Playa del Rey, Santa Monica
Tujunga, Sunland, San Fernando, Pacoima, Sylmar
Newhall, Canoga Park
Palmdale, Glendale, Irwindale
Rolling Hills, Granada Hills, Shadow Hills, Cheviot Hills
Will provide the secret evidence the Palmdale grand jury
Has needed to seek a criminal indictment
And pave the way for stiffer legislation, increased federal aid
And avert a crippling strike of bartenders and veterinarians
Throughout the inland empire"

Great Pumpkin Cafe
Refusing to give up on her, the staff at the RSPCA Brighton and Heart of Sussex Branch decided to try a radical strategy. They launched a dedicated TikTok campaign, committing to post a video of Sadie every single day until someone adopted her. The internet rallied behind Sadie, and on the 83rd consecutive day of posting, the algorithm worked its magic. The video flashed onto the screen of Mabel Edge and her partner Al, living in Westward Ho!, Devon. They weren't even actively looking for a dog, but seeing Sadie's eyes, they knew they had to act.Little kids trudging off to school in brightly colored raincoats. E-panda gets clicks for a hot tub video. Calf zoomies. Rainbow seen in full arc. Dog mob. Very cute: Little girl plays basketball with her cat. The cat can't shoot or pass, but it can pounce on the ball.
Giant pumpkin growers and their massive gourds converged on Monday in Northern California for an annual pumpkin-weighing contest.
The pumpkin champ this year won $9 per pound of pumpkin along with their lumpy gourd showcased during a parade through Half Moon Bay this weekend. https://t.co/fFSdzYhB9E— The Associated Press (@AP) October 13, 2026

Similarly, koalas are another evolutionary dead end, for similar reasons. Plus, they are repulsive little monsters with freakish genitalia, and ill-tempered. Not that you'd ever want to handle one, because of the incontinence from the endemic chlamydia they all have from their coprophagia, and will give you when they bite and claw you.

We got a good dose of rain overnight, and it was still raining steadily when we got up. Daisy just stayed on her couch. But as soon as the rain let up, she started her "let's go outside" routine. It's not just hearing the rainfall. She seems to sense when it's about to let up and starts nudging us then to get ready.

The guy asking Tali-man the questions was not having any of the "We'll Dig Our Way Out of the Debt by Taxing the Rich" Dem Party Line. Soon as Tali-man was done reciting the Holy Talking Points, the questioner followed up saying, as we here all know, that taxing the rich more cannot begin to balance the budget, and soon we will have to make hard choices about what FedGov can fund. At that moment Tali-man was literally saved by the bell signaling the end of the intelligent guy's time.

The proposal would raise verification requirements for the Premium Tax Credit (PTC), with the aim of ensuring that the credit only goes to Americans. "Today's proposed rules implement the common-sense reforms enacted by the Working Families Tax Cuts to close eligibility loopholes and ensure taxpayer-funded Premium Tax Credits are reserved for eligible Americans," Bessent said in a statement. "Under President Trump, this Administration is cracking down on fraud and corruption; holding bad actors accountable; lowering health care costs for Americans; and restoring integrity to our tax code and health care system." The move marks the latest effort by the administration to limit access to public funds for non-Americans and turn off the welfare spigot to ineligible foreigners.I saw Ineligible Foreigners open for the Violent Femmes at the Cow Palace in 1987. RFKJr. purged 189,000 dead or duplicate names from Obamacare subsidy rolls.
Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday announced the purge of 189,000 subsidized Medicare, Medicaid, or CHIP enrollments for deceased persons or duplicate enrollees, saying the move would stop more than $1 billion in erroneous payments to insurance companies annually. "In 2026, CMS [Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services] identified 189,000 subsidized enrollments involving duplicate Medicare, Medicaid, or CHIP coverage on record showing the enrollee has died," he said in a press conference. "CMS acted to remove improper subsidies in all these cases." Kennedy stated that the purge would save taxpayers $738 million in 2026 alone and that future savings would reach an annualized rate of $1.5 billion.Jack Smith obtained personally-identifying doxx of 639,000 American citizens in his lawless drive to discover a crime he could charge Trump with.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley on Wednesday revealed the Biden Justice Department and Special Counsel Jack Smith obtained detailed donor data and voter information on over 639,000 individuals during the Arctic Frost investigation. The types of information contained in the spreadsheet include: names, dates of birth, addresses, email addresses, party affiliation, places of employment, donation amounts, credit card information, and donor habits. Additionally, the donor and potential voter data ranged from 2005 to 2021, which Grassley described as "well outside Smith's scope of purported review." At the time, Smith was probing President Donald Trump's alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. This is further evidence, the Iowa senator said, "that the Special Counsel operation was designed to map out the Republican Party."
A black man was arrested for shooting and killing a cop -- and admitting he chose his target based on his white skin.
A black man named Eric Lewis allegedly shot and killed a Philadelphia police officer and injured another because they were white on Saturday, a report shows. The now-deceased officer, Shane Seiber, and his partner had arrived at a West Philadelphia home in response to a neighbor's 12:50 a.m. 911 call regarding a man spotted with a gun when Lewis walked up behind the officers, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer. The officers asked Lewis if he lived in the house, but were met with hostility as Lewis began yelling and acting aggressively. Then, as the officers moved to check if Lewis was carrying a firearm, the man allegedly shot the officers, a law enforcement source told the Inquirer. The source said that Lewis had continued to shoot the officers even after they had already been wounded, as the man continued to yell at them, saying that he had told them to get off his porch. Minutes later, another pair of officers arrived to find Seiber and the other officer, an unnamed 33-year-old, lying unconscious on the ground as they bled from their wounds. Seiber, who had 10 years of service as an officer, died at the age of 40 hours later after having been shot three times. He left behind his wife, a seven-year-old son and a three-year-old daughter, the Inquirer reported. Lewis then allegedly began a nearly hour-long standoff as he continued to shoot at officers from a position in a dark alley behind the home. After his eventual arrest, Lewis blamed the officers for having gone to his porch, The Inquirer reported, citing an arrest report based on interviews with nine officers. Lewis said that he had been across the street when he saw the officers arrive and that he had shot them after they had put their hands on him. He said that he had only done so because they were white, the report said. While speaking to a black female police officer at the hospital, Lewis said that "if it was you that responded we would have just had a conversation," noting that the officers had guns and that he had "every right to defend [himself]." A conservative commentator, Greg Price, shared a portion of the report, saying, "[Lewis] stated if the cops were black he would not have shot him... He was making racist remarks to the white police officers, saying he makes more money than them." At the hospital, Lewis also said that "Because they were white, they automatically grabbed me," according to the report posted to social media by Price. ... The city's police commissioner, Kevin Bethel, said that Seiber had "fought valiantly" and asked the community to keep him and his family in their prayers.
The media spends all its time talking about fake race lynchings. It has no time left to talk about the real ones. Plus, the real race lynchings won't help boost Democrat vote turnout. Harper's Magazine gave the pro-censorship harridan who runs NPR a a prize for being so good at the first amendment.
NPR CEO Katherine Maher will receive Harper's Magazine's "First Amendment Award" later this month despite her past criticism of the amendment. ... Harper's Magazine also claimed that Maher led NPR "through a period of heightened scrutiny and challenge" along with "successfully battling" President Donald Trump's efforts to defund NPR, though Congress still rescinded $1.1 billion in federal funding to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting in 2025. Although the magazine hailed Maher as an advocate for journalism, Maher has not always been supportive of the First Amendment as a whole. In 2021, when Maher was the CEO of Wikimedia, which oversees Wikipedia, she discussed efforts to combat disinformation and considered the First Amendment a "challenge" in that goal. "The number one challenge here that we see is, of course, the First Amendment in the United States. [It] is a fairly robust protection of rights and that is a protection of rights both for platforms, which I actually think is very important that platforms have those rights to be able to regulate what kind of content they want on their sites," Maher said.

A transgender illegal immigrant has been arrested on child sexual assault charges in Florida. Uriel Santiago Perez, 38, of Mexico, allegedly exposed his fake breasts to a minor boy in a bathroom and then sexually abused the victim by force, according to police. The incident occurred on October 6 while Santiago Perez was touring a home for sale in North Fort Myers. The victim is the homeowner's son, who Santiago Perez allegedly isolated in a bathroom and proceeded to abuse him, the Lee County Sheriff's Office said. The father told authorities that Santiago Perez had contacted him earlier in the week to arrange a showing of the home. Shortly after Santiago Perez arrived, the victim and the father began a tour of the house. The alleged sexual assault occurred when the father briefly stepped outside for a smoke break. ... Santiago Perez has been charged with one count of sexual battery on a victim between the ages of 12 and 18, records show. Federal law enforcement sources told Fox News that Santiago Perez has a previous criminal record dating back to at least 2013, when he was convicted of prostitution in Georgia.He's studying to be a Doctor of Engineering.

A transgender woman accused of fatally stabbing a Chicago man 13 times after he allegedly mocked the suspect's gender left part of the knife embedded in his skull, according to reports. Kelly Day, 32, was charged with first-degree murder in the Oct. 7 stabbing of Larry Young, 50, near a gas station on Chicago's South Side, the Chicago Police Department confirmed in a news release obtained by Fox News Digital. The Chicago Tribune reported that the attack unfolded in front of Day's 7-year-old stepson following an argument over comments the victim allegedly made about Day's gender.
During a detention hearing Saturday, prosecutors said surveillance video from the gas station showed Day stabbing the man 13 times in the head, neck and shoulders. An autopsy later revealed that a portion of the knife blade had broken off inside the victim's skull, the Tribune reported. ... Prosecutors said Day, who was assigned male at birth and identifies as a woman, had been mocked earlier that day for using the women's restroom at a McDonald's, the Chicago Tribune reported.

We’re losing a strong partner says Ukrainian leader after US president’s diesel deal with Putin
Is this the line that will finally get America's to actually sacrifice and save/take their country? What changes " I have work tomorrow so i couldnt possibly..." into actually taking action! im talking about countrywide strikes, cancelling all subscriptions, etc
Trump's love of Putin and hatred of Zelensky is rooted in white supremacy and antisemitism. MAGA sees Putin as the 'key to white survival'.
I mean, he was probably aware Trump was Putin's puppet all this time but hoped American 'checks and balances' would at least do SOMETHING for him to go full 'russian vassal'. But nope. America failed itself. And the world.
We all feel betrayed Bro. We all do. I feel betrayed by my own govt, my neighbors, and basically everyone else.
Donald has ordered America to turn its back on Ukraine and Palestine and forfeited US strength in the world stage

Off-duty NYPD Detective Jose Mercedes survived being stabbed 10 times by illegal migrants—and even chased his attackers down for 5 blocks.
"When you look at this story, it's really the tale of two American stories, two American stances.
You've got a Dominican immigrant—he's from here, but he's Dominican-American. And then you have two Dominicans attacking him for his gold chain. And the Democrats defend those people, and we're trying to defend the cop—a law-abiding citizen who has that American story." -

If you're not familiar with the term, it's a counterintelligence/espionage scheme in which you plant false/misleading information with a suspected mole by baiting them with something salacious enough to get them to pass it up their chain of command.
The plan being to influence the response (in this case, the media running with the story as a 'gotcha!') and/or expose the compromised agent. In this case, causing the deep state's fake news media to run with it, proclaiming that 'Kash Patel was in Russia!'
It was simply too juicy an opportunity for them to pass up... meanwhile, the truth was that Patel was speaking on a panel discussion at Liberty University in Virginia.

3) Trump is executed.
4) The commies get in power and never have an election again and use that list that Jack Smith put together as a start for their summary executions.

Stupid people in cities that think food comes from supermarkets should not be spouting off on social media. Unlike Bosnia, there is no outside force going to save urbanites from cannibalism if things go pear shaped and someone like Xela Hart is likely to be brown bread in the first couple of days from her surrounding citizens.

Around 20–22 U.S. states have (or have had) towns, cities, villages, or unincorporated communities named Moscow, with roughly 20–26 currently existing populated places bearing the exact name.
geotargit.com +1
Reliable lists (including Wikipedia’s disambiguation page and geographic databases) document current or recent places in these states:Alabama (at least two unincorporated communities)
Arkansas, Idaho (the largest and best-known, a city and county seat), Illinois (populated place)
Indiana, Iowa, Kansas (a city), Kentucky,
Maine (a town), Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi --
Ohio (a village plus a ghost town/historical site)
Pennsylvania (a borough), Tennessee (a city),
Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia
Wisconsin (a town plus a community)
This yields about 21 states. Some counts reach the low 20s depending on whether minor hamlets, ghost towns, or slight variants (e.g., Moscow Mills in Missouri) are included.

There can NOT be anyone allowed to say "we have to focus on the future....blah blah blah" and be allowed to stay in elected office. This is not misplaced bloodlust or vengeance - it is an absolute moral imperative. We either take these last 10 years for what they were - a bastardization of the principles of self-rule - or we slid into a period of civil war and strife that will make 1861-1865 look like goddamn child's play or recess."

I see the same ole shit on X whether it is AWFLs, Indians (dot), Antifags, Muslims, or Eurofags. A classic H. Beam Piper short story, "Naudsonce" has humans landing and not being able to figure out how the natives are communicating. They utter sounds but humans can make no sense of it. Finally, they figure out that sound noises themselves had a physical component so the sounds were a tactile means of communicating.
Clever allegory of politics.

Sub-Mediocre Male Cross-Country Runner Decides He Wants to Win So He Declares Himself a "Girl" Mid-Season and Begins Dominating
A Camas High School runner who finished 76th in a boys' junior varsity race began competing in the girls' division weeks later, placing second in a field of 195 before winning a girls' varsity race. This comes as Washington voters prepare to decide on an initiative protecting girls' sports. Logan Mihailoff began the season on Camas's boys' JV team at the September 5 Ultimook Race, finishing 76th, according to HeCheated, the advocacy group that highlighted the change. Camas's published season results confirm Mihailoff competed in the boys' division at that meet. By September 26, Mihailoff was competing against girls at the Nike Portland XC Invitational, finishing second out of 195 runners in the girls' junior/senior JV race. Three days later, Mihailoff won the girls' varsity race at the Union/Camas meet, finishing ahead of all 45 other competitors. In a statement provided to unDivided host Brandi Kruse, Camas School District defended its participation policy by citing Washington Interscholastic Activities Association rules and state law. "Under current WIAA eligibility standards, students are permitted to participate in athletics consistent with their gender identity. The district will continue to follow state law and WIAA requirements unless those laws or rules change. We also have an obligation to protect student privacy and will not discuss the circumstances or eligibility of an individual student."Voters have a chance to stop this madness:
Washington is the state where a male cheater gave an "oil check" to a female opponent in wrestling --meaning, he stuck his fingers inside her vagina to leverage her.
Voters will have an opportunity to change those requirements on November 3, when they decide Initiative IL26-638. The initiative would prohibit biological males from competing in designated girls' individual and team sports and require verification of biological sex from participants' personal health care providers as part of the routine sports physical.
Washington wrestler Kallie Keeler and her mother have now asked the US Supreme Court to intervene after Keeler alleged a male opponent sexually assaulted her during a December 2025 girls' tournament. They seek advance notice of matches against males and the ability to decline those matches without penalty. Prosecutors declined to charge the opponent, concluding they could not prove a crime beyond a reasonable doubt.The girls being forced to race against this male interloper showed some courage and simply walked for fifty yards at the start of their latest race, then simply walked off the course entirely. Or at least, nearly half of them did.
The adults running Washington's schools keep telling girls to accept boys in their sports. On Tuesday, girls at Camas High School delivered their answer: They walked away from a race rather than compete against a boy. Nearly half of the girls' cross-country team refused to compete against a male teammate, according to unDivided host Brandi Kruse, who shared footage recorded by Amy Sousa. The footage shows the starting gun going off and then a large group of girls stepping off the starting line and leaving the field. The walk-off came after two runners from rival Skyview High School staged a similar protest last month. Skyview runners Charlie Garrett and Sierra Retzlaff lined up with messages supporting women's sports painted on their arms and legs, then left the course after the starting gun. "We did it because we didn't want to act like we were OK with what was happening," Retzlaff explained.
Hmm, I wonder if this 6'1" male will have any unfair advantages over the short-legged women he's running against.

Same as back in the day at my high school. The guys who thought they were big players hung around the other, more prestigious girls’ teams thinking they would see more action.
They didn’t.
Meanwhile, Young Blade was feasting on the cross country babes, with minimal competition from other Chads.

Have a similar situation with parking at the spawns HS. Most of the kids who can drive have cars but there are not enough parking spaces even though there is a 3 story parking garage and some surface parking. Some guy in the neighborhood closest to the school was going off on Nextdoor about it. Said the HOA has rules, etc. wouldn't hear that the streets are public and the HOA couldn't stop legal street parking. Guy was a complete jerk.

320 Pretty obvious that the EU wants to keep the Russian money they froze to backstop the whole banking and economic system of the Euro. I think that is what is driving it in part. They cannot go to their people having wasted billions on Ukraine (and of course kickbacks right back to the Euro pols) without being able to grasp some way to call it a victory. Stealing the frozen money is part of that I think.
Posted by: whig at October 14, 2026 05:34 PM (E4rtv)
There are enough European assets in Russia that it would backfire, as long as the Federation is intact and they haven't installed a puppet in Putin's place. That's probably the only reason why they still haven't pulled the trigger on it, after years of blustery rhetoric.
It makes me wonder if they got fooled by the Bill Kristol Dog & Pony Show that he put on, with an elaborate description of exactly how the Russian Federation could be parted out like a hot car in a cholo's chop shop:
1. Maximal European opposition to Russia.
2. ???

The bank that actually has the money on hold in Brussles also doesn't want to give up the money, as they likely would collapse if it left.
I don't know if they followed Kristoll but there is a lot of stupid sanction thinking going on that somehow would lead to the collapse of Russia in days back in 2021-2 that was behind the start of the war. In fact they were so sure sanctions would work despite having huge gaps for things they wanted to keep buying from Russia that they almost forgot to have the Ukraine army start fighting for about a month or so.

This type of situation always brings to mind the episode of Married with Children where Al Bundy discovered Chuck E Cheese, a place where he could defeat children at competitive events and feed his desperate ego. He started volunteering to help out with children's parties there, a lot. The children cried, and Al felt like a winner.
Of course, that was broad satire about the amoral desperation of a hen-pecked defeated man, rather than that thing happening for real because lunatic administrators allow it.

Posted by: Oldcat
There is no TASTY kale, only tasty additives that make the raw material palatable enough to be swallowed. Kale should return to being the decoration around actual food at a salad bar. Even parsley tastes better raw.

That is called "repercussions". For six decades or more, the feminist movement has force fed us the tripe of equality. They developed a brand on it. They never missed an opportunity to slap us across the face with it. Well, this is what they wrought, and they have to live with the consequences. Because, in their flagrant dishonesty of message, they can't counter the idiocy of lunatics, because it highlights the very untruths they profess to be gospel.
Deal with it. I find it enjoyable, entertaining, and not the least bit unsavory. Carry on.

I was used to it as well with basketball at friend's houses. They knew not to kill us girls, so I guess made exceptions.
My brother and friend did not make exceptions playing tennis with me in college. I would often win against both of them at the same time. I was good. Now I'd probably tear something going wild and forgeting how old I am. Taught sons and they got mad if I won.
I'm proud of those girls who walked off. I would be raising all sorts of hell if they were my daughters or granddaughters.

🚨 BREAKING: The Trump DOJ just sent California a 48-HOUR ULTIMATUM over suspected noncitizens getting mail-in ballots — Reuters
ANY official who knowingly facilitates noncitizen voting can be prosecuted! 🔥
Trump gave Los Angeles County a password-protected thumb drive listing people they believe are likely NONCITIZENS who were sent ballots.
DOJ DEMANDS:
- Stop sending ballots to ANYONE on the list until citizenship is confirmed
- Set aside their ballots when they come in
- Hold off counting any already returned
Acting Deputy AG R. Trent McCotter: “Allowing noncitizens to vote cancels citizen votes." 🎯
If California refuses, DOJ will go to court for an emergency order!
DO NOT LET THEM CHEAT!

Buying fewer and fewer items via Amazon since they encourage Chinesium and counterfeit items.
Amazon led the way back before smaller e-retailers had access to the 3PL micro-fulfillment platforms that handled shipping, billing and sales tax logistics.
Now I would rather go to the honest retailer and bypass Amazon.

So I sat down and played and womped her, but was so cartoon villain when I got a match and so fake upset when she took a pair herself that we had a great time.

I'm sure, just incidental bumps and getting tangled up can really do damage when its between a man and a woman. I used to watch some of those man vs women sports clips years back and it was clear that even when beating them, the men/boys are being careful not to just bump into them going for a ball -- something that happens all the time for men only games.

It's weird that some people care about the race results of a HS sporting event more than the general life and respect and societal wellbeing of trans people.
Sports are fun, high school sports are fun, but getting a slightly worse place in a HS sporting event is ultimately meaningless.
What isn't meaningless is the elements of society that want to ostracize, demonize and make scapegoats out of a tiny percentage of the population and use them as punching bags so we all keep fighting over this instead of focusing on political corruption, corporate greed, global climate change, election tampering, Russian bot farms, oil wars, etc.
Maybe we just let trans people live their lives, not actually hurting anyone in any way by wanting to participate in society, and stop letting these targeted PsiOps distract us from meaningful problems. Don't let online propaganda make you fight nonsense culture wars when billionaires are buying elections and destroying public land.

I was just looking at the math. Men's records for the 100 and 400 are about 91% of the time for women's records. For the 10,000, it's 92.8%. For the marathon, it's 93.1.
Maybe statistically insignificant, but the gap does seem to narrow with distance. Maybe upper body strength plays less of a role.

Ok, now you triggered some latent OCD in me. I had to look it up. In Ultramarathons, Elite level, the males out perform female participants by 18%. On average, 100 mile races last 7 to 9 hours. So a female will be 1.26 to 1.6 hours slower to finish. That's a healthy margin.
