Hillary Clinton's Chief Conspiracy Theorist Marc Elias Receives DOJ Letter Informing Him He Is a CRIMINAL TARGET
20 Other Democrat Criminals Targeted

Eric Daugherty
@EricLDaugh

44m

🚨 WOW! MARC ELIAS reportedly just got a CRIMINAL TARGET LETTER after his firm was involved in cheating Alaska's elections with the fake Dan Sullivan

That's in addition to nearly 20 OTHER DEMOCRATS receiving the same letter.

CHARGES POSSIBLE: Donor fraud and conspiracy

It's clear that AG Todd Blanche is NOT letting this go 🔥

Trump is not going to let Alaska's Senate seat be stolen.

The Researcher
@listen_2learn

The bigger revelation from the Alaska episode isn't just that a decoy candidate was recruited. It's that lawyers from Marc Elias's law firm who were apparently involved in the scheme were also involved in the subsequent lawsuits aimed at challenging or suppressing the fallout.

I think the overlap between those orchestrating the operation and those litigating its aftermath deserves far more scrutiny than it's receiving.


Hans Mahncke
@HansMahncke

Because nobody was ever held accountable for Russiagate, the original lawfare operation, the whole machinery has only grown more brazen and sophisticated.

Marc Elias used the fake Steele dossier to push Russia collusion smears. In Alaska, his firm has taken the same playbook a step further, engineering a dirty trick and then turning to the courts to protect the result of that scheme.

Imagine Elias commissioning the Steele dossier and then marching straight into court, waving it around as evidence and demanding that a judge give legal force to the lies he had manufactured (back then, he used the FBI for that purpose, but now he simply cuts out the middleman and does it himself).

That's what happens when nobody is ever held accountable. They learn that there is no price to pay, so they keep escalating, growing bolder and more ruthless with every operation. And why wouldn't they? They've been taught that they can get away with anything.


I linked part of this recap by Jonathan Turley in the last post, but it belongs here:

Elias was the general counsel to the Clinton presidential campaign when it secretly funded the infamous Steele Dossier and pushed the false Alfa Bank conspiracy theory. (His fellow Perkins Coie partner, Michael Sussmann, was later indicted but acquitted for making a false statement to the FBI.)

Clinton campaign officials lied to reporters during the 2016 campaign, denying any involvement in the Steele Dossier. Journalists discovered the truth after the election -- that the Clinton campaign had hidden payments for the dossier as "legal fees" among the $5.6 million paid to Perkins Coie. New York Times reporter Ken Vogel said that when he tried to report the story, Elias "pushed back vigorously, saying 'You (or your sources) are wrong.'"

Times reporter Maggie Haberman later observed that "Folks involved in funding this lied about it, and with sanctimony, for a year." The Federal Election Commission ultimately sanctioned the Clinton campaign for the subterfuge.

While raising money as the self-proclaimed defenders of democracy, Elias's group has been involved in gerrymandering and efforts criticized as seeking to invalidate Republican votes, including unsuccessful efforts to challenge Democratic electoral losses.

...

Now, Elias's group is linked to the decoy scandal in Alaska, which allegedly aimed to make voters cast mistaken ballots. What distinguishes lawyers involved in this type of voter disruption is less their talent as their willingness. There are simply some things that most lawyers will not do.

17 The secret about Elias is that he's actually been really bad at his job since 2020.

He succeeded in 2020 because everyone just did what he asked from state supreme courts down to election workers, all while the RNC just said, "Yeah, we'll totally fight this later. Here's one lawyer to counter him. See you in 6 months."

His cunning but has a long string of failures. If he gets arrested and charged because of this dumb as fuck Sullivan gambit, it'll be a fitting end, especially if it doesn't work.

The ballots apparently label the real Sullivan as incumbent, and even if you intend to vote GOP and are still confused, you're more likely to have the two 1st and 2nd choices in the RCV process, meaning that any errant bad Sullivan votes will end up going to the real Sullivan anyway.

23 OT - Good thing he didn't listen to the operator: from the CA Post.
-------------
In the bone-chilling minute-long recording, Kaylub Gianmarco urgently warns a dispatcher that there is “someone with a gun” at his daughter’s school, Silver Trail Elementary, on Oct. 15, according to audio released Tuesday.

“I have a gun and I will shoot them right now,” said Giamanco, who was driving home for lunch. The operator pleads with him to stay put, imploring: “Don’t do anything, let me get an officer there.”

Gianmarco says he will not wait: “I’m about to go kill this kid.” Moments later, Gianmarco reports that the shooter is breaching the building.

When the dispatcher asks if shots are being fired, Gianmarco says yes. The operator attempts to press for more details, but the call abruptly cuts off.

The Paycheck Protection Program was created to save American jobs, not to enrich those who aren’t eligible for taxpayer-funded relief, especially the wife of a U.S. Senator.

Strand Book Store, owned by Nancy Bass Wyden, wife of U.S. Senator Ron Wyden, received $932,350 in second draw PPP funds despite a federal law barring businesses controlled by a member of Congress or their spouse from receiving those loans.

Our Fraud and Asset Recovery Division will expose this abuse, pursue those who exploit taxpayer dollars, and hold them accountable. No one gets a pass when it comes to defrauding the American taxpayer.

The Paycheck Protection Program was created to save American jobs, not to enrich those who aren’t eligible for taxpayer-funded relief, especially the wife of a U.S. Senator.

Strand Book Store, owned by Nancy Bass Wyden, wife of U.S. Senator Ron Wyden, received $932,350 in second draw PPP funds despite a federal law barring businesses controlled by a member of Congress or their spouse from receiving those loans.

Our Fraud and Asset Recovery Division will expose this abuse, pursue those who exploit taxpayer dollars, and hold them accountable. No one gets a pass when it comes to defrauding the American taxpayer.

There were two separate pots of money for the PPP. The first one got obliterated within 2 days after it opened for claims. We tried for our business but the money was gone quick. After they processed the first batch another pot of money was put out for the program.

Election Day News

Jonathan Turley:

Marc Elias is back. The notorious Democratic lawyer who played a critical role in the 2016 Russia hoax is again in the news. His law firm has been identified by the New York Times as part of the expanding scandal involving Democratic effort to confuse voters in Alaska with a decoy candidate named Daniel J. Sullivan.

For those familiar with Elias's checkered history, this is a case of rounding up the usual suspects.

The scandal involving Democratic candidate Mary Peltola has quickly snowballed this week. A New York Times blockbuster investigative report quotes former staff who claim she knew of a cynical effort by her own campaign and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee to confuse voters by recruiting and fielding a decoy "Dan Sullivan" candidate in the race against incumbent Sen. Daniel S. Sullivan (R-Alaska). State and federal investigations are now unfolding, with dozens of federal subpoenas raining down on Alaska.

The effort to get voters to cast mistaken ballots is grossly unethical and, even in these rage-filled times, a uniquely disgraceful scheme. Peltola and the Democratic Party had long denied any involvement in the other Sullivan's candidacy. So when the Times produced evidence that she allegedly knew, and that Democratic staffers and lawyers had been deeply involved from the beginning, many of us were surprised -- that is, until the name "Marc Elias" emerged. Then it made more sense.

The Elias Law Group was already in the news this election cycle for threatening reporters with defamation lawsuits if they kept asking questions about the health of former Gov. Roy Cooper, the Democratic nominee for Senate in North Carolina. Earlier, Elias caused a stir during an unsuccessful Democratic gerrymandering effort, raising the idea that Democratic leaders could abolish the entire Virginia government after courts blocked their attempted radical redistricting plan.

The fact that figures such as Peltola and Cooper wanted to be associated with any law firm headed by Elias is itself an indictment of their judgment and standards.

Despite his losses in cases such as National Republican Senatorial Committee v. Federal Election Commission, Elias is still a favorite of many on the left thanks to his aggression and partisan fervor. The controversies that make him notorious to many make him popular with others.

HOCHUL'S "WRONG SIZE PAPER" EXCUSE: WESTCHESTER'S MACHINES BREAK ON THE ONE DAY MOST REPUBLICANS VOTE!

Ballot scanners at polling sites across Westchester County have been rejecting ballots since the polls opened at 6 AM. Westchester has about 1 million residents and roughly 680,000 registered voters.

That includes about 132,000 registered Republicans, 7,400 Conservatives, and 186,000 voters who aren't enrolled in any party.

County Executive Ken Jenkins called it a "county-wide issue at all of the polling locations."

The Board of Elections blamed the "thickness" of the paper, then quietly took that word out.

Governor Hochul says it could be the "wrong size paper" and could take hours to fix.

Here's why this matters: Democrats tend to vote early and by mail. Republicans show up on Election Day. So when the machines break on Election Day, the people stuck in long lines and delays are mostly Republican voters.

Some will have to get back to work.

Some will give up and go home.

Every one of them is a vote that didn't get cast.

All of this is happening with Governor Hochul on the ballot and the Lawler race on the line.

That's a very convenient coincidence for Democrats.

Westchester, don't let them win by wearing you out. Stay in line, fill out your ballot, and make sure it goes into the orange emergency bag.

NEW: Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) announces new prosecutions of non-citizens accused of voting illegally, including an Uzbek national in Wyoming who falsely attested to be a US citizen & voted, but was caught after the state began participating in the federal SAVE (Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements) program to cross reference voter rolls against DHS databases.

The Uzbek man, Maksim Shakirov, has now pleaded guilty to voting as an alien and is scheduled to be sentenced in January.

HSI is also announcing the arrest of a Dominican non-citizen woman, Rosanny Fabre Villa, for illegally voting in Pennsylvania in the 2024 election, as well as the sentencing of a French national, Eliezer Kadoch, who pleaded guilty to illegally voting in the 2020, 2022, and 2024 elections in New Jersey. Feds say he also falsely claimed in a 2023 application for US citizenship that he had never voted or claimed US citizenship. He will now have to perform 50 hours of community service, pay a $1,000 fine, and be on probation for one year.

As of the latest data pull, we are exceeding same-snapshot margins compared to 2024 - literal Presidential turnout on a midterms.

And it's accelerating - in one ten minute pull, we pulled ahead of 2024 by 5,000 votes.

An incredible last-minute turnaround in Florida. This is the kind of performance we need to sustain across the country.

So, my OH, TX, and ME bets I'll just wait to cash out because those will be wins.

The NC bet I want to believe but can't fully, so I put in an sell order below $1.00 that I'm hoping gets hit once people realize that the race is closer than the polls say. So, when the odds shift, I sell, and I make a profit.

The makeup of the Senate, I have three competing bets (52, 53, and 54 Senate seats), so I can't win all of them, so I put sell orders on all three (the higher sell orders on the one I'm most confident on, the 53).

So, if this is like I think it'll be, I should just make money on all of them, even if all of my bets don't completely pay out.

Again, less than $100. Not exactly betting the farm, here.

Out of about 20 workers there, only two were white (unnecessary to say?). The whole team was excellent. Friendly, well-dressed, polite, happy to assist. It was a very good experience and always is. We use the machines where you slide in the ballots. I've never had an issue and I've never heard of one.

If paper was the wrong size and not caught ahead of election day, that's actually retarded.

175 I thought poll workers were not supposed to dress neutrally, no wearing political garb or messages.

I live in a deep blue state and just voted. Everyone was totally neutral in their garb, professional, friendly, and signs appeared to be the prescribed distance from the polling place. Doesn't seem like too much to ask of a polling place in the US.

Seeing that t-shirt, reading about the blatant Democrat cheating, and their total arrogance in knowing that they will not even be called out for it, let alone punished, makes me...take a deep breath and be mild because this site is likely monitored for hate speech...very angry.

I'm trying to square the apparent late break for Democratic candidates with the fact that (according to the accompanying article) Republicans have an edge with late-deciding voters.

At some point he was on FOX. Kilmead or someone surprised him with a birthday cake. You'd think it was a cobra as he reeled back like a vampire seeing sunlight. His reaction was so weird the hosts were alarmed. He would not touch his slice of cake.

I like it. It's like when I first started watching anime. You watch normal western media, and you're rarely surprised...you usually see where things are headed, jokes are coming, etc. Start watching foreign media (like anime) and suddenly you're being surprised. The unexpected (or inexplicable) occurs.

You go into a Lefty thread, have expectations for how dumb and clueless it'll be...and they always manage to surprise me.

Rural Kansas is very Republican., but the six biggest cities in Kansas are filled with Leftist voters.

Out of the 2.8 million Kansans, 80% live in urban areas. The six million cows, mostly Angus, get no vote. This is why President Trump was in Kansas. He was in Dem strongholds.

FWIW, the State AG, Kris Kobach, has been and is on top of voter fraud.

Hopefully they're jumping from a sinking ship but it's Michigan, and if/when he loses they'll have really pissed off the DSA lovers. Pelosi probably doesn't need to care but Butt probably still has higher office aspirations.

Deranged Alcoholic Femcel Hillary Clinton and the High-Calorie Cretins of The View Say That Trump Will #Hack the Election Using Mind Control

This doesn't sound like confidence to me.


Nicholas Fondacaro
@NickFondacaro

ABC's "bona fide news program" The View brings on Hillary Clinton and Kara Swisher to push a slew of conspiracy theories about how the midterms could be stolen.
They predict:

-ICE will confront people at the polls

-Use the Justice Department and U.S. Marshals Service in a nefarious way

-The election results will be hacked and changed (teed up by Sunny Hostin)

-Use peoples Social Security numbers to manipulate their thoughts

Nicholas Fondacaro at Newsbusters:

he View cast was so confident that the midterms were going to be a blow out for Democrats, that they spent part of their Monday show priming the pump for Democratic losses with conspiracies about how Republicans were going to steal elections across the countries. Teed up by the ABC "bona fide news program" co-hosts, two-time presidential failure Hillary Clinton and leftist tech podcaster Kara Swisher spewed a slew of election theft conspiracies from intimidation, to hacking and changing results, to mind control via Social Security Numbers.

Yeah, you read that last one correctly.

"If the votes don't go his way, which we suspect they may not, will the President try to steal this election or will our systems hold?" wondered co-host Sunny Hostin, who was one of the people who claimed Trump stole the 2016 election.

Clinton claimed she had lead "war room scenarios with big groups of people to get everybody to think about the most unthinkable" ways for President Trump to steal the midterms. "Because you know, with Trump, you've got to get out of your comfort zone and say, 'well, what is the craziest thing that somebody could try to do?' and get prepared for it," she declared.

Her opening salvo was the usual assertion that Trump was going to send ICE agents to polling places across America to intimidate voters:

CLINTON: You know, having ICE or others show up and just be standing there, staring at people, you know, looking threatening to voters coming in to vote.

But you know, I do think that people are tougher than that.

GOLDBERG: Oh yeah.

[Crosstalk in agreement]

Of course, there weren't enough ICE agents to do that and there would be nothing for voters to be afraid of. They even admitted it wouldn't be intimidating.


Swisher, Clinton's podcast co-host, jumped into claim the Justice Department and U.S. Marshal Service would be used in some unexplained nefarious way. Hostin chimed in again to get Swisher to briefly warn that the election results would be hacked and presumably changed:


SWISHER: Trying all manner of attempts. Because they still control the Justice Department. They still control the Federal Marshal Service. They still control the House --

HOSTIN: And what about hacking?

SWISHER: And hacking.

This was essentially a flashback to the liberal media's greatest hoax ever, erroneously telling Americans "Russia hacked the election" in 2016, giving the false impression that results were changed to give Trump the victory.

Their craziest claim would come shortly thereafter.

Clinton tagged back in, argued that Social Security information "was literally stolen" by DOGE, and would somehow be used to mentally control voters into doing what they wanted:

If you have, in private hands, the Social Security information of every American, just as an example, which is one of the things that was alleged, that was literally stolen from the Social Security administration. I don't know if that happened, but people from inside said that it was. And that's under the control of people like Elon Musk, we need a government, and I would argue, starting in January with a new Congress, to begin to hold these people accountable. They can't get away with manipulating the data to try to influence decisions.

Attempting to give Clinton's craziness more validity, Swisher claimed it would be assured since A.I. would be involved: "Especially with A.I. And this data has never been compiled. There's a reason it's siloed in the government. If you could bring it together with A.I., there's all manner of crazy scenarios. And as crazy as you want to get."

At no point did the co-hosts of ABC's purported "bona fide news program" question these assertions or push back in any way. In fact, they were teeing them up.

Videos at the link.



Also on The View: Hefty and empowered black woman Sonny Hostin says that Liz Cheney's defection was brave but Haley Stevens' endorsement of Mike Rogers was just treachery. She clams that Stevens' choice was made entirely for feminine reasons of a "bruised ego," with nothing at all to do her fundamental disagreements with Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed.

How misogynist! She's saying women are controlled by their irrational emotions and need for validation.

Sara Haines disagrees.

46 According to Guam's Elections Commission, the results are only 'unofficial' so far.

Even if the commie finds enough votes to win the polls said D+25 and last time around the commie won by 11.

If this was a blue wave you've expect the results to have gone from +11 to something like +25 in a blue area but not from +11 to say +1

47 I don't take much from Guam, I dont really view that as a bellwether. In fact I remember that going red in 2022 early on and being excited.

My take is the Dems will lose a few of the high profile ones that really wanted to win, like Talarico and Al Sayed, but still unfortunately have a good night. But it's not going to be what they hoped for.

Like in in 2010, I remember being pissed Harry Reid won reelection, despite the fact Dems overall got destroyed.

BREAKING: A University of Michigan student seen attacking a conservative activist and resisting arrest in a viral video faces one felony count of assaulting an officer and two counts of assault and battery under a pending felony warrant, the Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office said Tuesday.

“We thoroughly reviewed the evidence that was submitted to us, and the following charges were authorized against Temulun Togochog based on the evidence that was submitted and the governing law,” Alyssa Fountain, an administrative assistant with Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office, said in an email.

Togochog has been charged with one count of assaulting, resisting, or obstructing a police officer, and two counts of assault or assault and battery, Fountain said.

“There is no court date at this time, but a felony warrant for these charges will be issued by the court and a court date set once she has been arraigned on the charges,” she said.

There is a tooling goof on the new Das Werk Me 262. The Me 262 on display at RAF Herndon has a reinforcing plate where the tail attaches to the fuselage.

So far not found this on any wartime photos where the tail is clearly visible.

But in the tooling Das Werk has made this plate stand 1mm away from the fuselage. Embrace the joys of sanding.

Beto got within 3 eight years ago right after Cruz, who's always not been a natural politician, got on the wrong side of MAGA by saying "vote your conscience" at the 2016 RNC after he bitterly lost the presidential primary to Trump.

In the 8 years since, Texas has gotten far more Republican (I've seen that imports are R+20 on average) and the Democrat brand has cratered, especially in the border counties because of Biden's open border policies.

And all of this is going to be undone because Talarico, who is a gay twink who loves trans kids and hates Christianity, went to seminary school.

204 Ok lads: imagine you aren’t horny at all. Not even slightly. You’re busy fixing a shelf or ironing your suit or watching your favourite TV show. Zero sexy feelings. Your girlfriend sighs loudly and goes “can we have sex now” in whingy voice and then grabs your ass. She then sulks and starts whining when you aren’t instantly aroused and into it and starts saying you haven’t had sex for 3 days.

Annoying? Not very sexy?

I'm interested in the case only because it was fun to watch her get her ass beat by both the Jewish supporters and then the cops. Then she shouts out the immortal line "I've already been in a mental institution!"

It's also curious because 99% of these kinds of people are hideous and misshapen and turn to this kind of activism because they are desperate and needy.

This girl is much more attractive, has some pull in the community (she testified before Congress!), and woulda been going places. She chose this life.

214 Thank you Ace for always great content.

Voted yesterday. Filled in our mail-in ballots at home. Ive been registered to vote absentee since I missed voting in the 1994 mid-terms due to last minute business travel.

I walked the ballots into the polling place and watched as the poll worker visually scanned the envelopes to verify they were properly filled in and watched him drop them into a black box with what looked like a tamper-proof opening similar to a mailbox slot. I live in a Republican district but no sounds like a shredder ensued.

Activity was busy but not crowded. I was in and out in less than three minutes. Took me longer to park my big klunky truck.

I decided to have a little fun, and turn the conversation to her piercing. She raved about how cool it looked and asked the other guy if he wanted to see. "Uh, ok I guess?"

She then stood up and started pulling her shirt up and my friend suddenly realized he didn't know what she pierced exactly and was...hopeful.

Only of course to be annoyed when she lift her shirt up only to mid stomach level and showed the belly button piercing. "Oh, uh, yeah, like, uh, that's great"

Yes, the quote is real. Sen. Ted Cruz said it on his podcast The Verdict with Ted Cruz around October 30, 2026 (a few days before Election Day).

Full relevant portion:

“Texas is excruciatingly close. Understand, we could lose Texas. Let me repeat that: We could lose Texas. And by the way, not just the Senate race. We could lose every single statewide race in Texas. That’s how close these numbers are.”

He framed it around strong Democratic early voting, national “bloodbath” risks for Republicans if early-vote patterns held (citing opposition to Trump), and the need for GOP voters to turn out. He noted that polls can have left bias but said the turnout data itself was real, and he urged people to vote.

Reminds me of a now old joke:
Chelsea Clinton decides to bring home a man she wants to marry to meet her parents. During dinner, her father takes her to the kitchen and says, "I've not always been faithful to your Mom...I hate to tell you this, but you can't marry him; he's your half-brother."
Disappointed, Chelsea breaks it off with her fiance.
Months later, Chelsea brings home another man to meet the parents; the same thing happens.
Chelsea brings home a third man, and again, the same thing happens, another half brother. In complete frustration, she pulls Hilary into the kitchen and asks, "How could you have married such an unfaithful man? I'll NEVER find anyone to marry!"
Hilary responds, "Don't worry; he's not your father."

🚨 VERY IMPORTANT: DISTURBING REPORT FROM SAN DIEGO BALLOT DROP-OFF LOCATION

An eyewitness reports that the ballot drop box at the library on Voltaire Street was so full that voters were being turned away.

According to the witness, ballots were on the ground as election workers slowly emptied the overflowing box, filling TWO bags.

The witness says one worker then loaded the bags into an unmarked minivan.

When she began recording, an election worker allegedly told her to DELETE THE VIDEO.

She refused.

Speaking of that Florida Learjet crash, I was reading some analysis last night and this morning by people who know what they're talking about.

The 20 yr old was almost certainly not at fault in any way, and in fact, done good, as best she could in those last moments. May God rest her soul.

The cause was likely ice build up, which triggered a stall and then a nose dive when they tried to ascend. They were likely in a non-win situation at that point anyway, and any other thing they tried likely would've had the same result.

There is speculation (informed but still guessing) that it was maybe the passenger who were pushing them to get there quickly and didn't want to delay, and that's what pushed them into the storm.

Ilhan Nur Said Elmi Wrote, In Her Certficate for Her Marriage to Her Brother, That Her Given Name Was "Elmi"

But then she crossed it out and falsified it as "Omar."

Deport this rancid walking crime spree in a burka.


Confused much?

Rep. Ilhan Omar apparently didn't know what her name was when applying in 2009 for a Minnesota marriage license to her alleged brother Ahmed Elmi, according to the document obtained by The Post.

A certified copy from the Hennepin County, Minn., government shows that the Democratic congresswoman's surname was initially written as Omar, before being crossed out and replaced with Elmi. A final edit reverted it back to Omar.

The revisions are potentially significant as the Justice Department investigates whether Omar fraudulently gained US citizenship in 2000 by failing to use her accurate legal name and birthdate.


The ongoing case builds on a probe into whether the Somalia-born politician committed immigration fraud by marrying Elmi, a British citizen who describes himself as gay.

elmigaypirate.jpg
"I'm not a Gay Pirate," Ahmad Elmi said,
while posing in his Gay Pirate Hijab


The Justice Department referred to Omar in a court filing last week as "Congresswoman Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, a/k/a Ilhan Abdullahi Omar."

A source familiar with the investigation previously told The Post that authorities believe Omar is not the congresswoman's "real" name, meaning she was born with the last name of Elmi, just like her alleged brother-husband.

The marriage certificate application -- dated Feb. 12, 2009 -- is a potentially significant piece of evidence, though not necessarily dispositive.

The government form also asks whether the bride and groom are related to each other by blood or adoption. The couple attested they were not.

Omar's office did not respond to The Post's requests for comment on the file.

It's unclear who filled out the application, but it appears to have been written with just one person's handwriting.

Unlike the Justice Department's recent reference to Omar's alleged true name, the initial revision was written as "Ilhan Omar Elmi," rather than Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, and potentially could indicate indecision about a post-marital name change.

...

"The whole thing was a joke. The marriage was a fraudulent marriage, brazenly fraudulent," [Scott Johnson of Powerline and Alpha News] added. "They didn't take it seriously. It was entered into for a fraudulent purpose."

AJ Kern, a former Minnesota congressional candidate who has dug into Omar's immigration records and discrepancies about her birthdate, said the evidence keeps piling up.

"I think it's pretty clear she married her brother and committed immigration fraud," Kern told The Post.

The bigger issue is having a non-citizen in office, she said.

"If the evidence seems to be pointing to the fact that she never obtained citizenship, Congress is failing to do their job. If we've had a foreign nationalist occupying a seat in Congress, that's a problem," Kern said.

50 OK, so I have a question. You just have to be present to sign the marriage license that you already filled out. Signing only. And paying the fee. So why didn't Ilhan submit one without the cross outs of her name, e.g., a final version? And was her husbro present with her, or did she have to do a supplemental that needed notarization?
------------------
• Where to Apply: Applicants could purchase or apply for a marriage license in any county in Minnesota, regardless of where they lived. The actual wedding ceremony had to take place within the geographical borders of Minnesota.
• Application Details: Both parties had to provide information including their full legal names, addresses, dates and places of birth, Social Security numbers, information on any previous marriages or divorces, and the names they intended to use after marriage.
• In-Person Appearance: Around mid-2009 (taking effect in August 2009), Minnesota law required both parties to be present when applying for or signing the marriage license application (or submitting notarized supplemental forms if one party could not appear).

If a state is in multiple timezones, no counting results are made public until after the last precincts close statewide.

Part of the 2000 fiasco was that networks were calling the race after the eastern time zone had closed but while the western time zone was still open.

Heck, I think we should end Federal aid to the States! The "block grants" are sinister strings and an enticement to fraud. Federally administered programs were an absolute disaster, of course, but it turns out that the States are terrible too.

That doesn't mean the money should go to NGOs; "refugee resettlement" funds have corrupted churches, destroyed their reputations, and enshittified entire communities. Gov't is terrible, and it should get out of the welfare business entirely.

82 Got back from voting at the rural church where I've voted for a decade and a half. Nodded to people I know working the election.

You have to show ID. So I handed the ID verifier my debit card, asking for an extra ballot. No sale.

I then said "Me nombre is Manual Enfuego", and asked for a ballot. No.

Gave my driver's license over, which was scanned. Then I was asked to state my address. Which I did. "I could get an extra ballot in California", I said.
"Not here" was the reply.

Went to the booth with touch screen, and voted.

Wrote my name in for one position. I will lose that, because the person that got 3 write-in votes in the Primary was on the ballot. I was not ready to run before the primary. So my election record will go to 7 and 1.

Looked at my printed ballot to endure the votes were correct, and went on my way.

Rural Kansas is very Republican., but the six biggest cities in Kansas are filled with Leftist voters.

Out of the 2.8 million Kansans, 80% live in urban areas. The six million cows, mostly Angus, get no vote. (This is why President Trump was in Kansas. He was in Dem strongholds.)

I answer one every couple of days to advise the poor saps doing cold-calls that they are doing a really hard job for an employer who lied about their "sure hits and certain sales for commission" and I encourage them to find a job that sucks less than telemarketing.

Red graffiti reading 'BLOOD ON HER HANDS' was scrawled on Collins' Maine campaign office ahead of her re-election showdown against Democrat Troy Jackson, one of a few key races across the nation that will decide control of congress.

In New York, voting machines also failed in Westchester County ahead of a vital House election, with officials blaming the 'thickness' of ballot paper for causing widespread malfunctions and plugning the race into uncertainty.

SUBMITTED: Poll worker wears “Problem Solved” T-shirt with red splatter near the collar resembling blood.

Speculation is that it celebrates the assassination of Charlie Kirk or other assassinations; the Halloween design has been controversial for years.

The picture was taken Saturday at the Rogers fire station community room.

In a statement to @AlphaNews, Hennepin County confirmed it forwarded the concern to the city clerk in Rogers for review.

“Hennepin County expects polling places to be welcoming and free from intimidation, harassment, or disruption for voters and election workers alike… Anyone with concerns about conduct at a polling place should bring them to the attention of the head election judge or city clerk's office,” the statement reads.

DC Circuit as a whole has a better understanding of how precedent can bite them in the ass than district court judges, and I'd imagine a DOJ intent on driving this issue as high as possible would get a favorable result at the circuit level.

It took three trips, and there were two oxygen tanks, lots is nonsensical gabbing, a sharing of tissues (which grossed me out), and more gossip than I could handle.

I loaded them up with all kinds of stuff they shouldn't be eating (donuts, pastries, tiny little cheesecakes, and candy). One old lady (Miriam) was a hoot. She got out of the fan, and looked up at the sky and said, "Just checking to see if the Turkey Vultures followed us here."

It took three trips, and there were two oxygen tanks, lots is nonsensical gabbing, a sharing of tissues (which grossed me out), and more gossip than I could handle.

Trump Will End the $3.8 Billion Per Year of Military Aid to Israel by Year's End;
Counterintuitively, Is This the Best Outcome for the US and Israel?

The US will stop the payment of military aid to Israel. It will, however, continue authorizing the sale of key US weapons systems to its ally.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday said that the U.S. would stop sending military aid to Israel by the end of the year.

Trump told "Fox & Friends" that Israel is in a position to purchase its own weapons and doesn't need the U.S. to fund them.

The U.S. provides $4 billion per year in military aid, Trump said, and he and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had discussed terminating the funding for years. He said that the idea originated with Netanyahu.

"They don't need it. Israel is a very thriving country," Trump said.

It's actually $3.8 billion per year.

Why would Netanyahu favor an end to US military aid to Israel?

It makes no sense.

Or does it?


Although this may seem to be a sop to the J.D. Vance/Tucker Carlson Groyper pseudoconservatives -- and I imagine it is at least partly that -- it might not be such a bad deal for Israel at all.

Pro-Israel, right-leaning Jews have argued that the US should end aid to Israel -- because the aid is used by antisemites like Tucker Carlson to bash Jews, and because the money comes with very thick strings.

Presidents like Obama and Biden have used the threat of withdrawing the aid to demand that Israel not strike back against the Democrat Party's terrorist allies.

Jacob Siegel and Liel Leibovitz for Tablet, itself a Jewish commentary magazine:

End U.S. Aid to Israel

America's manipulation of the Jewish state is endangering Israel and American Jews

July 16, 2023


Two years ago, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez famously wept in Congress after changing her vote on funding Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system from "no" to "present." The New York Times said that the incident showed progressive members of "the Squad" "caught between their principles and the still powerful pro-Israel voices in their party, such as influential lobbyists and rabbis." (The line was later removed with no correction.) In People magazine, the congresswoman's procedural maneuver to avoid voting was appreciated for its pathos: "Ocasio-Cortez Opens Up About Israel Iron Dome Vote That Left Her in Tears: 'Yes, I Wept.'" In the end, the resolution passed the House 420-9.

The Iron Dome is, of course, an entirely defensive anti-missile system which the Totally Not Antisemitic or Pro-Hamas Democrats hate because it stops 90% of Hamas and Hezbollah and Iranian missiles from hitting the Jewish population centers they're aimed at.

The Skwad and other terrorist-promoting antisemites want those missiles to kill Jews so that Hezballah and Hamas and Iran will be able to extract ransoms from Jews.


Ocasio-Cortez's bit of Kabuki theater fit neatly into the premade mythology of a domineering Israel lobby, popularized by academic John Mearsheimer, whose views are experiencing a burst of popularity in isolationist corners of the right. His central claim--that America has been pressured by an all-powerful, determined ethnoreligious lobby into acting against its own interests--is made explicit in references to "influential lobbyists and rabbis," in Rep. Ilhan Omar's tweets that U.S. support for Israel is "all about the Benjamins," and in graphics like The New York Times' infamous "Jew-tracker" that policed support for Barack Obama's Iran deal according to the religion of members of Congress.

Belief in the mythic power of "the lobby" rests on a common article of faith that is shared by Israel's loudest critics and most fervent supporters--namely, that U.S. military aid forms the cornerstone of the "special relationship" between the two nations, and that this aid is a gift that powerfully benefits Israel. Cutting off Israel's D.C. cash pipeline, it's assumed, would dramatically alter the balance of power in the Middle East: in one scenario by endangering Israel's security, and in another by forcing its recalcitrant leaders to accept the enlightened proposals of Western policymakers.

While this fantasy version of the U.S.-Israeli relationship is useful for stirring up emotions and demonstrating partisan loyalties, it does more to flatter the self-importance of Israel-aid opponents and supporters alike than it does to describe an increasingly warped reality, in which Israel ends up sacrificing far more value in return for the nearly $4 billion it annually receives from Washington. That's because nearly all military aid to Israel--other than loan guarantees, which cost Washington nothing, the U.S. gives Israel no other kind of aid--consists of credits that go directly from the Pentagon to U.S. weapons manufacturers.

In return, American payouts undermine Israel's domestic defense industry, weaken its economy, and compromise the country's autonomy--giving Washington veto power over everything from Israeli weapons sales to diplomatic and military strategy. When Washington meddles directly in Israel's domestic affairs, as it does often these days, Israeli leaders who have lobbied for these payments--including current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu--are simply reaping the rewards of their own penny-wise, pound-foolish efforts.


...

It's no wonder that one well-known regional expert we consulted, who served in high security-related positions in the U.S. government, was horrified when we proposed ending American aid to Israel. When we asked which of our arguments were overstated or mistaken, this person answered: "None of them. But my job is to represent the American interest. Aid to Israel is the biggest bargain we have on our books. Ending it would be a disaster for us. I just don't see who it benefits."


...

Ending aid would not mean the end of the U.S.-Israeli military alliance, intelligence sharing, trade, or any mutual affinity between the countries. Rather, it would allow both sides to see what each is getting in return for what. In the words of retired IDF Major General Gershon Hacohen: "Once we are not economically dependent on them, the partnership can flourish on its own merits."

...

Formal U.S. military aid to Israel, as opposed to loans and cash-on-delivery arms sales, started in 1979, when the Carter administration offered it as a carrot to get Israel to agree to withdraw from all of Sinai as part of a peace deal with Egypt. The same deal provided a comparable sum of U.S. military aid and arms to Egypt, for many years the second-largest recipient of U.S. foreign military financing after Israel. Notably, the aid to Egypt was given despite the country's displaying no capacity to deploy military force outside its own borders--the goal being to achieve a rough form of U.S.-brokered parity between the two recent foes.

Tucker Carlson never objects to paying off Egypt. I suppose he might, because the money is intended as a bribe to avoid hostilities against Isreal, and he would like every Muslim country to attack Israel.

But he and the other antisemites JD Vance insists on courting never bring up Egypt or all the other countries on the American dole, because they want to make the claim that the US is dominated by "ZOG," the Zionist Occupational Government, and bringing up the fact that the US sprays money around like P. Diddy at a Baby Oil Freak-Off would damage their bison-skulled propaganda efforts.

The writers note that Obama's promise of aid to Israel, $3.8 billion per year for ten years, was only made so that he had the power to restrain Israel from attacking his close ally, Iran:

..


In reality, the MOU advanced Obama's goal of paying lip service to Israeli fears while constraining future Israeli actions, in line with a new American strategic architecture in which the interests of traditional allies like Israel and Saudi Arabia would be "balanced" with those of their mortal enemy, Iran. It deepened Israel's reliance on U.S. arms and military spending, while extending Washington's reach into Israel's domestic affairs. Paradoxically, the "most generous" package ever was an instrument to downgrade the U.S. commitment to Israel. The MOU purchased both influence over Israel and the acquiescence of American Jews who were expected, in the face of such public generosity, to go along with the White House policy of strengthening Iran, while upholding the narrative that Obama was Israel's "best friend."

...

Last week, President Biden authorized the military to deploy up to 3,000 reservists to Europe in support of Ukraine's war effort. There are, at present, an undisclosed number of American troops operating in Ukraine alongside the other 80-some countries where the U.S. has forces stationed. By contrast, no American soldier or pilot has ever risked their lives for Israel, and no American missile or aircraft has ever flown in Israel's defense. Such are the myths and realities of "the lobby."

Another point the authors make is that by requiring Israel to buy American missiles and weapons with the aid, it necessarily -- and possibly intentionally -- starves Israel's own vital domestic industry from cash.

And that means that someone like Obama and Biden can blackmail Israel with the threat to withhold providing the American anti-missile missiles that keeps Israel cities from being destroyed.

In addition, US supplies of the Patriot missile are currently small, partly because we're sending so many to Ukraine and also shooting off a lot of them to protect our own bases from Iranian attacks. Other countries like Israel simply can't afford to be dependent on US anti-missile defenses, because the US, of course, may reprioritize delivery of the missiles to other countries (like Ukraine) or just need to use so many of them ourselves that we have few to send to overseas clients.

...

Cut the stranglehold of aid. Let America pursue its interests. Let Israel, too, follow its own interests, which sometimes align with those of Washington and sometimes don't. If Israelis think it will ensure their security to decapitate the Iranian regime, or give the Golan Heights on a platter to Bashar Assad, or develop their own homemade fighter plane and sell it to India or Saudi Arabia, let them go ahead. And let American Jews who care about being Jewish focus on observance and learning their people's history, instead of pimping for Lockheed Martin. If the commitment to Israel is deeper than mere political fashion, if it is more than a secularized idolatry, then it's time to prove it--by smashing the ideological idols of America's Israel debate.

Will this appease the rapid Nazi and cryptoislamist Tuq'r Qarlson? No, of course not; he and his allies on the Skwad will shift their attacks from aid to Israel to weapons sales to Israel paid for with Israel's money, period.

It will certainly be clarifying. And that is itself a good thing.

5 Israel had been aiming to head in this direction for a while. The money isn't worth the negative press.

In general this is the beginning of Trump's global framework for foreign policy, each region a coalition of largely self-sustaining countries, in this case an Israeli-Arab bloc for the Middle East.

6 Remember, this was never aid. This was favorable loans that they had to use to buy US military equipment.

34 This transition has been a topic for a long time, long before Trump, and for many of the reasons cited. But today, vs. the prior period, Israel is in an excellent position to do without the aid. And given the shifts in American politics - i.e. the even further dumbing down of the populace and now the emergence of dangerously stupid elements - Israeli self-reliance is obviously prudent.

Self-reliance for lower-tech items (ordnance, ammo, small arms) was pursued strongly by Israel up until (?) 10-15 years ago. Resuming much of this production has been an Israeli priority since 10/7.

And I think $500M of the "aid" package is for joint development projects (from which the US obviously benefits, and bigly) - don't think that will be ended.

38 As long as we keep some kind of military relationship with Israelz we're still good. Israel is an ally in a very unstable and important region...their military and especially intelligence is vitally important to our goals and operations there.

Additionally, their use of US equipment is an excellent proving/testing ground for our most advanced equipment. We're very concerned about potential war with China, a near-peer competitor....something we haven't had to deal with in generations. We don't want to be caught like the beginning of most of our previous wars, working the bugs out of our equipment and developing best practices. We want the Israelis (and others, like Ukraine) to figure that shit out for us.

41 I hardly ever listen to rockstars and actors for any political advice.

However, I have followed Bob Geldof for many years since he was inside the workings of international food aid to Africa for decades.

Based on that expertise, he now believes that "free" food is a net harm and is clearly the most effective way to suppress or drive out local food production.

I am not an expert on the defense industry, but I suspect the same economic principles may also apply to Israel's defense contractors.

So Israel may in fact be bettor off without massive amounts of U.S. foreign aid. At least during non-crisis times.

Aid to Israel is a huge talking point for anti-semitic Leftists, and perhaps some Independents. Would have been nice if Trump had made that announcement a bit earlier than election day.

But it was never the real issue, so it's not going to make any difference to those who hate Israel. They will just move on to another talking point.

Which is my problem with this. We shouldn't be giving ANYONE aid, except for specific goals that align with the US.

We should NEVER be giving aid as a matter of course. To ANY country.

But that's not what the complaint is. It's that our (comparatively) small amount of money that goes to Israel proves that TEH JEWS control the US.

Egyptian aid should be evaluated in the context of their government. We don't want their government to collapse and be replaced by the Muslim Brotherhood. Unsure how reliant they are on US intervention.

67 Have to get ready for vote and then work, but I always wonder about Iron Dome (and anti-missile systems in general.) On the one hand, they are an unalloyed good: they keep terrorists and rogue states from waging war against populations of civilians and infrastructure.

On the other hand, it is also a perverse incentive for shitheads. This allows them to say that Israel is in no real danger and should not be fighting back as aggressively as they are. It's no big deal. The reason it is no big deal is because tech on the defensive side is making it so that the terrorists are not killing as many people as they wish to.

On the other, other hand- these shitheads are always the same- on the other side. When a big loss of life and war crimes DO happen (see Oct 7) they pass it off as no more than them doing what they are doing in response to Israel's 'aggression.'

So, fuck them all. Kill the fuckers.

68 $3-4 billion was a pittance, and every other day you can read how this or that Israel startup was bough by Apple or Intel or some other conglomerate for billions. Just the other day Intel bought Israel's quantum startup Classiq technologies for $2.2B. A week before, Proofpoint bought Israel's Varonis for for $6.3 billion. Every week! So 3.8 billion is nothing. Time to reach equitable agreements and relationship.

69 I worked for a company maybe 20 years ago that was on the receiving end of US aid to Israel, by which I mean a US company where the Israelis are required (any US company) to spend some if not all of the money.

Here's what happened: The salesmen had a really good month. No one involved has incentive to pay a good price. The salespeople jack up the price at least to high retail and make fat commissions.

side note: went to the place to cast the thing. Mission accomplished. I've been optimistic until maybe this past weekend. Now I'm looking for an empty seat next Eeyore. We'll see.

72 The key isn't trying to increase support for Israel, it's decreasing support for islam.

It should be obvious to the world by now that there is an insidious and well funded campaign to increase support for islam throughout the world. As always, this means a counter campaign to vilify Israel. It's what they've been doing in the middle east for years and now they've taken the campaign worldwide.

We need to push back hard on islam and sharia and all things related to islam. If we do that then the campaign against Israel will be much less effective.

73 The U.S. provides $4 billion per year in military aid, Trump said, and he and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had discussed terminating the funding for years. He said that the idea originated with Netanyahu.

"They don't need it. Israel is a very thriving country," Trump said.

Well, mostly. 3.3B out of 3.8B is financing, the other half billion is direct aid.

As to what I said about Camp David, grok says:

In short, the large-scale US aid packages to both countries are a direct outgrowth of the Camp David peace process and remain in place as of late 2026 (with a possible near-term shift for Israel under discussion). They are sustained by successive US administrations and Congress as a matter of policy rather than treaty requirement.

So we wouldn't be "breaking" Camp David Accords. Just breaking the tradition.

I also think that Netanyahu would rather not be bound by US conditions that come with the aid. I would suspect that Egypt will want their payments to continue.

89 Voted this morning; biggest turnout I've ever seen by far but don't know what it means.

I think it's a good sign for Trump/Republicans. The odd MAGA-only voter has been Trump's strength but Republicans' achilles heel. Dems have always been motivated to turn out against him. So, big turnout, unlike pre-Trump conventional wisdom, is most likely good for Republicans.

There is a rare possibility it means unaffiliated normies are really upset and motivated and coming out to vote en masse. While always possible, it's always very unlikely. We're not at Carter 1980 levels of normie unhappiness.

T2 cut off a lot of that aid already. USAID is basically dead, most of the "humanitarian aid" programs have been shitcanned, and some trade agreements reworked to stop just funneling money to africa.

That was the cause of all the whining and crying and boo-hooing from the left about how poor africans are dying because they don't have diesel to run their trucks.

There's always more to cut, but T2 already slashed tens of billions from the aid to africa. Excellent start.

Europe also cut back on a lot of african aid.

But, what never really got any press was Trump cutting off any financial aid to Palestine in the first term. The amount wasted and used egregiously by the Palestinians was substantial. THEN, when Biden got into office he started up the payments to Palestine once again in his first month in office. And, Trump nixed them the same way in his second term as he did in his first.

In truth, we as a foreign country were financing both sides of the conflict. We shouldn't be financing a foreign government on a consistent basis. It should be only in "need" and reflect the goals of the US government at the time. It's should not be a permanent program.

This is true. Which is why grain prices spiked when Russia invaded Ukraine. Yes, commodities are fungible. But in the case of diesel, we are the largest exporter in the world. If you are worried about diesel supplies in the US, you shouldn't. We have plenty.

If you are worried about price, that is a different matter altogether.

Voting day is always heavily Republican in every state from about the blue side of purple to the deepest of red.

If FL GOP walks into election day with a registration advantage in early voting, the only question is how big a victory Republicans are going to have.

And this can be repeated across a lot of other states.

What I Saw at the Trump Rally in Salina, Kansas 1 November 2026 [NaCly Dog]

This was President Trumps 30th rally in 32 days. It was his final rally before the election. Trump has been in Kansas before, in Topeka , and also in Wichita for this election cycle. The initial rally was scheduled for Saturday. It was canceled. After questions from the press, the Rally was moved to Sunday. This was Trump’s second Rally of the day. He had an earlier Rally in Iowa.

There was no problem getting to the remote parking place, but we arrived 8 hours before Trump’s speech, and a full 3 hours before doors opened. My widowed friend and I did pass by 10 protesters on the way through the outer security perimeter. We passed street vendors selling Trump memorabilia, and especially hats. School busses took us through more security checkpoints. Once off the bus we walked to a serpentine holding line next to a hanger. 10,000 tickets were downloaded for a venue of 7,000 seats.

The crowd was a mix of all ages, from a few babes in arms, a number of young people, and many in their 60s to older. There was a large number of red Trump hats in view, with funny to respectful t-shirts and attire.

The line was a collection of high trust, good people. We were with some long-married
couples, one married for 52 years, and a middle-school math teacher at a local Catholic school. One couple brought a disposable chair and were very gracious to share with others in need of rest. There had been a roar when the four engine Boeing 747-800 Air Force 1 landed and taxied near the waiting crowd.

One person stood out in the line, in a black suit with a black Trump hat, and a cell phone with an external power pack. I talked to him, figuring his formal dress marked him as European. He was a Romanian member of their Parliament. His mission was to contact the 1.4 million Romanian-Americans to get them to vote for Trump. He had spent 2 months traveling all over the US. On Election Day, he will be near Mar-a-Lago. Thanks to some commenters, I could knowledgeably discuss recent Polish and French events, and the specific Romanian shenanigans. His take was Trump is ensuring the continuation of Western Civilization, and is the last barrier to barbarism. “The US is the hope of the world.”

We were in line for 4 and a half hours. After the doors opened, it took an additional hour and a half to get to a professional security screening. TSA should be so good. Our tickets were not collected, but I am pretty certain face-recognition software was in use, from all the cameras. We sat near the fence line, and I could see the personnel ramps for both doors of AF-1 and people moving inside.

Security was both viable and quiet. I noticed helicopter air cover, and then special police drones with blue flashing lights. Lots more Secret Service were around, as well as three types of local police. No police snipers were seen by me. Secret Service agents were roaming the crowd all the time.

We had an excellent sight-line to the open rostrum, protected on the sides and back by bulletproof glass. The Kansas City Chiefs game was on a large Jumbotron. With the Chiefs having a strong lead, the Jumbotron went silent.

Senator Marshall, on the ballot, and then Senator Moran came out to pitch the crowd to vote. Some policy was discussed, but mostly the negatives of opponents were mentioned. Then the Gubernatorial candidate Ty Masterson made his pitch, as did the incumbent State Attorney general (Kris Kobach, a personal favorite of the crowd and me), my Congressman, and another. All gave strong speeches, with policy to favor Kansans and denouncing the Left, their actions, and the DEM opponents, with specifics.

They left, and we waited for President Trump. He was still in Iowa at the other rally. The game came back on, and then toe-tapping rock music was played using two separate banks of 8 very large speakers. Hearing damage was possible. I could feel the bass compress my ribs and go from the ground to my femur. I was too close. We were outdoors, with bleacher seats behind the President and on the rear. Some people had to stand or squat.

There were 4 food vendors there, and the prices would make an airport blush. Two pork cheeseburgers and two waters was $46. The caps were taken off as they handed you the water, so some manual dexterity was needed.

The Chiefs lost the game, darkness descended, and we waited, being pounded by the music. Then the speakers crackled “Air Force 1 to Salina Tower, permission to do a low pass over the large crowd?” “Permission Granted.” “In sight.” Over our heads came a Boeing 757 in AF-1 livery. The plane landed and I noticed a long line of vehicles, headed by the Beast limo, head for the aircraft. They blocked any sight lines from the crowd to the deplaning group. We
could see people moving off the plane, but lighting was low. Eye of the Tiger music pounded us as the group left AF-1.

Trump came out to a frenzied crowd an hour and a half after the posted time. His voice was a tad raspy. But he talked about his achievements, with many big numbers. He talked about the good of tariffs and manufacturing, and seemed very proud of getting lower drug prices. He also said this was his last rally. Before the election. He worked the crowd very well, saying he wanted to go on after the Kansas City Chiefs game was over and praised the coach (Andy Reid) and QB Mahomes. He said he was sad they lost. When the President came out, there were a lot of vigilant and visible protection.

He urged us to vote. He spoke highly of Senator Marshall, and invited him up to speak. Then he praised Kris Kobach, and got him to talk. Later he asked the Secretary of Agriculture to speak to the farmers and ranchers.

After telling how he bullied France to help with his drug pricing, he called for Rubio to come up. Three times he said that Rubio is getting too popular. Twice he finished with “I’ll have to fire him.” My take was this was a sigh of high approval, and I moved Rubio into the status of heir apparent. VP JD Vance was mentioned once. I noticed three people that spoke talked of him calling them after midnight and before 6 AM. One said his wife was going to call Melania if it happened again.

He highlighted the threat to gun ownership several times, and there was a show of hands of gun owners. Practically the entire crowd raised their hand. Much more than when Veterans were asked to stand, or when ranchers and farmers were asked to raise hands.

Trump demonstrated a high energy level. He did not want to quit with such an enthusiastic crowd. He mentioned the fake news only three times. Without heat. Like they were sad puppies. As an aside, every time I passed the cordoned off press area, I wore my biggest sneer possible.

I had one protester shout at the President right behind where I was seated. I swirled around and got out of my chair in one movement. A look at my face, and she flipped me off with both hands, while backing up. A nearby Salina Police Sgt. passed me and led her away.

President Trump was having fun, had some sly humor, but he was dead serious that we needed to vote. He was like a priest, and I saw him evoke God and the many good pastors in his life, like Billy Graham and Norman Vincent Peale. He even pitched the book The Power of Positive Thinking. I got the feeling he was trying to pass on to a new generation what made him great, like a proud granddad to a grandchild.

We both had a great time. The school busses made for a quick exit, and clear traffic home.

17 I went to a very early Trump rally.

At Kiawah Island Country club. It was just in a big conference room. Maybe 200 people.

He showed up a bit late, riffed for 40 minutes, mostly about Francis saying something not nice about him (which happened like the night before), and he worked the room like a master.

Got his autograph.

Very different vibe from his rallies now, it seems.

18 I was born in Salina, and lived there until I was 10. Great memories, great little town. It's funny going back, though, because as an adult, the town seems much more drab and poor than it did as a kid. Central Kansas may not be as colorful or prosperous as the various places I've lived since then (mostly central Iowa), but the people seem just as friendly when I'm back visiting relatives.

My parents met at Marymount College, so every time we visit, we have to drive by and check out the old buildings.

Here's hoping for a good outcome tonight! 🥃 Confusion to commies!

Fairly quiet polling venue, though it was getting busier as I was leaving.

Glad I got the early though, as there were 13 ballot initiatives that I needed to read through CAREFULLY, the last of which was a yay or nay on establishing a Human Rights commission for the City of Buffalo based on the UN Charter ... that got a hearty FUQ NO !!!

Here's to hoping that Kathy Hochul gets retired today ...

@AGHamilton29
Yesterday the NYT published a list of what was alleged to be over 500 Michigan “Jewish leaders” supporting El-Sayed. The point of doing so was to paint a narrative that he has strong Jewish support in MI.

But did the NYT do any vetting to the list?

A quick skim and you notice it includes names like “Jack Mehoff”. I happen to know that one of the names is someone deceased. A majority of the signatories don’t even use their full names, just a last initial, so it’s impossible to confirm these are even real people or Jewish.

Why would they publish a story about a completely unreliable list with random names on a google sheet? Because the point was the narrative.

My bet is it will be called a blue wave by the media regardless because the Dems will almost certainly net seats.

It's just a trend that's been around for several generations now. The party that lost the last election and is out of power tends to do way better in the next election.

It's not very logical, but it's what happens.

Only Democrats are attracting crowds; no one is going to Trump rallies.

LOL, it's all so fake and gay, what the media is doing.

No, I'm not doing a "rally size proves we're winning" but that you wouldn't even know Trump is still getting crowds of 10k if you watch the media.
It's wall-to-wall "look at the big crowds at [Dem] rallies!" and "Trump poll numbers are the lowest ever!"

OK, if Trump is so unpopular, why does it only show up in the media, online trolls and polls?
Where is the real-world proof?

120 From RS McCain at "The Other McCain" site:

"At some point, you need to get in touch with your inner Stoic, to seek calm amid the gibbering madness, to stop being a wired-in political junkie before it drives you bonkers. People are out there losing their minds over this election, and I refuse to surrender to the insanity. Even if the very worst-case scenario develops, the American Republic has survived crises before, and the worst collective errors of the electorate (e.g., the Obama presidency) at least have the beneficial effect of inspiring more determined opposition."

135 I get annoyed by the nominally non-partisan theme I see all over social media right now, "Just get out in vote whoever you are going to vote for"

If you don't understand the issues then your voting is a negative overall, not a positive, both for you and the republic as a whole, and this is in a real non-partisan sense.

And honestly the people that have to be cajoled are less likely to be informed.

So yes get out in vote, if you are actually going to understand what the candidates stand for, what the implications of the D or R holding either or both houses of Congress, and what your state/local officials will do.

I'm surrounded by left leaning LIVs that complain about what their state/local officials do and then go re-elect them, willfully ignorant they are voting directly against what they seem to actually care about.

Yesterday the NYT published a list of what was alleged to be over 500 Michigan “Jewish leaders” supporting El-Sayed. The point of doing so was to paint a narrative that he has strong Jewish support in MI.

But did the NYT do any vetting to the list?

A quick skim and you notice it includes names like “Jack Mehoff”. I happen to know that one of the names is someone deceased. A majority of the signatories don’t even use their full names, just a last initial, so it’s impossible to confirm these are even real people or Jewish.

Why would they publish a story about a completely unreliable list with random names on a google sheet? Because the point was the narrative.

Yes the "cities" vote blue, and when you go in them you see signs for whatever Dem socialists are running. But you get out of the cities and every sign is for Trump/republicans, including in the burbs

Yet the official totals show massive number of blue votes coming from the 'burbs/rural areas.

And this is very, very different from the rest of New England where when you travel in the burbs/rural areas you see plenty of Dem signs.

I guess all those massive number of Dem voters in the burbs/rural areas are just afraid to put out signs like every other Dem does or something right?

One of the major narratives out of 2018 was that Democrats had successfully localized the House races they won in Trump states.

But, in 2026, they outright attempt to nationalize every single senate race they're after, ensuring that turnout in heavy Republican states goes up compared to a more sedate midterm.

195 Washington — Democratic Rep. Debbie Dingell of Michigan said Rep. Haley Stevens' stunning endorsement of GOP Senate candidate Mike Rogers over Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed is having the opposite effect of what she intended. "You're seeing a backlash," Dingell said in an interview on "The Takeout with Major Garrett" on Monday. "It's galvanizing many communities."


I don't think endorsements make much of a difference. Would I care if one state Rep official endorsed a Dem?

But OTOH, I think Stevens and the rest of the moderate/Jewish Dems in Michigan are doing is reflecting what moderate Dem voters are telling them. So this isn't Stevens standing on her principles, this is her staying ahead of the poison for the party AES would be.

Of course we will see at least 100% of the muslim vote in the state cast for AES...at least...

I saw an architecture documentary about a Japanese American furniture maker born in the 1900s. Wish I could remember his name. He had to go to the internment camp in Idaho during WW2, and met a master furniture maker there that taught him. He would find discarded materials and reclaim them and build furniture. Continued making furniture after the war. He build a whole compound for his furniture shop and his home in PA. Sounded like a lovely person. First world problems in an internment camp wound be a very interesting series.

The Japanese internment camps are a good model for how to survive with grace should the left ever get their way and we all go in one. The Topaz camp in Utah had a newsletter they printed, so we could keep Ace's blog still going at least! But in print form.

251 Washington — Democratic Rep. Debbie Dingell of Michigan said Rep. Haley Stevens' stunning endorsement of GOP Senate candidate Mike Rogers over Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed is having the opposite effect of what she intended. "You're seeing a backlash," Dingell said in an interview on "The Takeout with Major Garrett" on Monday. "It's galvanizing many communities."


Of course she's gonna say that

Rogers was making the rounds of black churches in Detroit with a democrat black state rep who came out for Rogers.

Michigan is a disaster for the dems. And it is going to hurt them down ballot, especially since GOP percentages were outperforming the dems compared to 24 in EV.

39 Overview of "Fin du travail"

"Fin du travail" (The End of the Working Day) is an oil painting created by French artist Jules Breton between 1886 and 1887. This artwork is a significant representation of the realism movement, showcasing the daily lives of peasant women as they conclude their labor in the fields at sunset

Second one say "My son is soldier. He is rape as many women as want."
Third one say "My son is dead. For him, struggle is over."
Other two say "Wow! You are win us!"


I tell daughter, "Daughter! I take you to America!" She is weep tears of happy. I use tears to make salty potato. Then I say "Daughter! I lie! I no take you to America!"

Now potato is more salt.

"Knock knock!"
"Who is?"
"Potato farmer. I give free potato!"

But is not potato farmer. Is secret police.

Man have hungry family. Is steal bread to feed them. Come home, all family sent to Siberia. Man say "Sad, but more bread for me." But bread have worm.

106 Yay 102.
GatewayPundit has this..

Two former staffers are accusing Alaska Democratic Senate candidate Mary Peltola of repeatedly using the n-word, including once to attack an Army veteran who organized a fundraiser for her.

An unnamed staffer says that during an October 25, 2024 dinner to honor Black Army soldiers who helped construct the Alaska-Canada Highway during World War II, she used the slur while privately lashing out at the man promoting the event.

Ed Wesley, an Army veteran and former commander of the American Legion Post 34, had urged Peltola’s campaign to purchase multiple tables for the event, assuring her they would be filled. But when the event was poorly attended and the tables sat mostly empty, according to Alaska Landmine, Peltola lost it, calling Wesley a “scammer” and the n-word, according to the former staffer.

“I can’t believe that n—r,” she allegedly said

108 CBD has used at least one other painting by Breton, The Song of the Lark. That one got me interested in Breton's art and today's increases that interest. He has a wonderful ability to portray his subject's (often peasants) posture to create a mood. His realistic use of light and the landscape adds to that mood. In this scene there is no way to ignore the tired women as they trudge under their burdens at the end of a day in the field. The image would connect with anyone who has done a long day of heavy labor. (Raises my hand.) Even if rural themes don't appeal to you, his paintings are worth the time to study.

The realism and accuracy of his work reminds me of the Pre-Raphaelites that I so enjoy.

If this scene was used in a movie, it would be something that stays with the audience long after leaving the theater.

Look at the example of this painting on the Jules Breton Wiki page. It is a lot brighter with more details of the women's faces and the background. I actually prefer the one in the thread because it has more of that end-of-day feel. Both are worth study if only from an appreciative viewpoint.

According to Grok,

Duncanthrax is a mid-tier, occasional commenter rather than a high-volume poster, appearing in threads on AoSHQ's comment archive (acecomments.mu.nu) across topics like gun rights, media criticism, and political satire—hallmarks of the blog's content.

Tone: Dry, bellicose wit with a touch of world-weary cynicism. Comments are concise but punchy, favoring clever one-liners over lengthy rants.

Topics: Predominantly conservative-leaning takes on U.S. politics (e.g., mocking liberal media figures like Jim Acosta), Second Amendment advocacy in gun threads, and cultural critiques. They engage in pile-ons against perceived left-wing hypocrisy but also toss in self-deprecating humor or gaming/pop culture asides to lighten the mood.

Community Role and Influence
In AoSHQ's ecosystem, Duncanthrax represents the "geek-conservative" archetype: informed on tech/military topics (possibly informed by Kistner's background in C++ and open-source projects like Scream, a virtual sound card tool), yet fully immersed in the site's rowdy banter.

No one marries the Navarro lady for her brain. But she got the ozempic shot and did slim down.

Not to turn anyone's stomach this morning, but I found about "ozempic vagina" and it sounds horrible. I didn't think about how if getting the shot strips muscle, it also atrophies the muscle keeping lady bits and organs in place. You're welcome for that mental image. Getting plastic surgery down there sounds awful.

209 Fin du travail, 1886-1887.
Jules Breton

Did we have this painting before, or maybe one very similar? Doesn't matter. This is beautiful, idyllic.

It looks like a photograph, it's that good, and I would hang it.
--
The painting portrays three monumental peasant women walking back across flowering fields bathed in a warm, glowing sunset.

Lyrical Realism: Unlike some of his contemporaries (such as Jean-François Millet) who focused on the harsh, gritty exhaustion of rural labor, Breton infused his depiction with a poetic, dignified, and almost devotional grace.

Reception: The heroic and idealized presentation of agricultural workers made Breton's work immensely popular during the late 19th century, particularly among collectors in the United States and France.

References include Brooklyn Museum (where it's held) & Artvee.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States will stop providing $4 billion in aid each year to Israel in 2027 but will sell arms to its closest ally in the Middle East, President Donald Trump said on Tuesday.

The Republican president told Fox News Channel during a phone call on Election Day for the midterms that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had approached him about the idea and that they have been talking about it for a couple of years.

I've smacked so many leftists in the face with this - if Trump really is 'lawless' and a 'dictator' and a 'tyrant,' why aren't you in a concentration camp at this minute?

I (and I suspect a lot of people) wish Trump were half the dictator these White Rose cosplayers pretend he is. A good dose of Nacht und Nebel would shut them right the hell up.

The Morning Report — 11/3 /26

VETOED.jpg

Good morning kids. And so today is Election Day. As we have been discussing for at least the past couple of weeks if not longer, the direction if not the ultimate fate of whatever remnants of America as founded that still remain is at stake. I know that the phrase "the most important election of our lives" is trotted out every two to four years, but perhaps it's my no longer being a kid as well as facing some critical medical issues that has done more to focus my mind on things than otherwise might've been the case, but given the state of the world, our nation, history and who and what we are dealing with makes the stakes pretty obvious regardless of what your own personal situation might be.

Well the events/stories leading up to today has meant things going on elsewhere have taken a backseat. One such story that has particular cromulence for today's results is a potential coup d'etat going on in Poland.

. . . France – along with many of its neighbors – faces the specter of a species of revolution that may end up replacing Western freedoms with some hideous hodgepodge of Communism and sharia law. In Warsaw, too, this past weekend, people began taking to the streets in large numbers. But the Polish crisis could not be hardly different from the one afflicting Western Europe. In Paris and elsewhere, governments that have slavishly followed the EU’s globalist-minded directives instead of attending to the needs of their own people are paying the price for it. In Warsaw, on Friday, a group of five judges who had been appointed by parliament but not yet sworn in by the president, Karol Nawrocki, occupied the building of the Constitutional Tribunal, whereupon one of them, Anna Korwin-Piotrowska, illegitimately and peremptorily removed the court’s president and deputy leader, appointed herself to take their place, and ordered the court building surrounded by police.

Let's see, "replacing Western freedoms with some hideous hodgepodge of Communism and sharia law" Now doesn't that have a familiar ring to it right here at home, especially today. Meanwhile he may not be in Warsaw, but depending on how things shake out there, he might not make it back. Not alive anyway.

Polish member of the European Parliament warned Americans against voting for Democrats in the 2026 midterm elections, arguing that socialism could threaten their freedoms and lead the country down a similar path Poland experienced under communist rule. Dominik Tarczynski delivered the warning during an appearance on Fox News’ Saturday in America as he discussed political unrest in Europe and the dangers of socialism.
“Socialism is death, slavery, lack of any freedoms. Please don’t do it. Don’t go through 70 years of occupation like Poland did,” Tarczynski warned.

Preach it brother! But they're that is they'll be wielding the whips having us build a White Sea Canal back to the 12th Century!

It took the human race thousands of years of suffering under tyranny and slavery to arrive at the Age of Enlightenment, 1685–1815, during which the absolute powers of spiritual despots and monarchs were overthrown in favor of the construction of constitutions of common law and declarations of human rights, including the rights to one’s own thought, faith, and expression; the rights of property; and the right to pursue personal happiness through freedom of enterprise. The citizens became the sovereign, and the government became the servant. These societal compacts of law wrought an unprecedented change in human fortunes toward individual liberty and societal harmony. The era gave birth to an explosion of artistic expression, scientific discovery, and industrial invention, culminating in most of the benefits we enjoy in our modern age

I recently came across a news item that made me reflect on our strange political environment —always a painful experience.
Bernie Sanders, the ancient socialist senator from Vermont, delivered a tirade against artificial intelligence, claiming that it had provided the tools for unscrupulous hackers to break into unauthorized bank accounts.
Even as he railed about an “evisceration of our privacy rights,” Sanders introduced legislation to “ban artificial superintelligence and temporarily pause advanced AI development.”
. . . Progressives want to pause data centers today because they killed off nuclear power decades ago — a chain of causation that can lead, quite literally, to the dark ages.
The best illustration of the horror of change and lack of forward-thinking by this sect can be found in their favorite means of transportation: trains and bicycles.
I mean, these are 19th-century technologies: the first steam-powered locomotive made its appearance in 1804 while the bicycle was invented in 1817.

Nevertheless, progressives spend enormous amounts of taxpayers’ money to promote these comfy old machines.

The socialist mayor of Paris, France, spent hundreds of millions of euros and destroyed her perfect city to install bike lanes. . . The socialist craves a return to the communal womb — to a society as unchanging and dogmatic as anything experienced by our medieval ancestors.

The dream is of Utopia, but what you get is Cuba, a place where the population is too hungry and too cowed to worry much about data centers.

That, in brief, is my complaint and concern about progressive conservatism of the Bernie Sanders kind. . . But by confusing their hopes with reality, progressives have tumbled into a fallacy and seem determined to drag us there with them.

Like Goethe’s Faust, they believe they can “pause” society in a perfect moment of universal harmony and sustainable prosperity.
That way lies damnation.Human societies are dynamic, complex systems, assembled through a historic process of trial and error and always adapting to changed conditions.
They can’t be paused, any more than one can pause a Cat 5 hurricane — but they can be made maladaptive, contradictory, and ultimately self-destructive.We are no exception.

Although this is quite a good piece, the author attributes way too much altruism on the evil Commies when all they want to do is exert absolute, total and permanent control on society, period, end of story,

And on that note, I invite you to peruse the Politics and associated links to try and read the tea leaves.

And of course GET OUT AND VOTE, LIKE THERE'S NO TOMORROW because depending on the outcome, there might not be one, at least not the one we had wished for, or more accurately worked our asses off and sweated bullets for... and in some cases like Ashli Babbit and Charlie Kirk as well as some of our ancestors who survived socialism in th third world and Nazi occupied Europe, took bullets for.

On that note, as always I nevertheless bid you all to have a good day,

and say a prayer for our sacred nation and society that we carry on regardless of today's outcome, and that Leftism and Islam one day soon are returned to the fiery pit from which they slithered.

45 Here is one paragraph of What I saw:

One person stood out in the line, in a black suit with a black Trump hat, and a cell phone with
an external power pack.
He was a Romanian member of their Parliament. His mission was to contact the 1.4 million
Rumanian-Americans to get them to vote for Trump. He had spent 2 months traveling all
over the US. On Election Day, he will be near Mar-a-Lago.
Thanks to Whig and other
commenters, I could knowledgeably discuss recent Polish and French events, and the
specific Rumanian shenanigans. His take was Trump is ensuring the continuation of
Western Civilization, and is the last barrier to barbarism. “The US is the hope of the world.”

"They call it weighting their poll. I call it a Magic 8 Ball," he added.

Yep. They know their polling is flawed, but it's not stopping them from declaring a Blue Tsunami.

It reminds me of 2016 when Hillary was 98% certain to win, because the polls said so.

It was only ten years ago. Remember the faces of the expert pundits as the reality slowly set in.

I find it amusing that many of our polling places around town are located inside churches.

I wonder if that suppresses Dem turnout around here...

67 "Peggy Noonan wants Republicans to lose big so the GOP will have to rebuild."

Both parties are changing, and Noonan misses why.

The Ds evicted White Non-College from their party years ago, even though they outnumber White College by two to one. They're now Trump's base and with their support he's won the White House thrice. Trump has been expanding his base with many Hispanics and some Blacks. It's becoming a Populist Party slightly right "north by northwest."

Meanwhile, the Ds have a shaky minority coalition but with hands on many of the levers of government and business.

The Ds are already fracturing over DSA. "It's the People's Front of Judea."

I expect they'll be in total disarray by 2028, especially if the Blue Tsunami doesn't arrive today.

The absurd pageant of fake democracy has become a grueling civic ritual stage-managed by the deep state and donor class, and it consumes fully half the waking lives of people who live in this empire.

It's lame AF.

171 The blame game started already today, with Investors Business Daily ignoring as much good accomplishments and knifing Trump:

But then the wheels started coming off. Instead of focusing on wringing inflation out of the economy, Trump launched an erratic, unfocused, divisive trade war that opened him up to the charge — rightly so — of raising prices instead of cutting them.

The attacks on Iran, as justified as they were to prevent that terrorist nation from acquiring a nuclear weapon, could have stopped with the bombing of its underground facilities, with the promise of more if they tried to reconstruct it. The wider campaign, which we support but which he never fully justified to the public, jacked up the cost of both gasoline and food — the two things where prices are the most obvious to consumers.

Trump closed the border while restarting wall construction, which were massive victories. But the deportation campaign has been a needless PR disaster.

And Trump’s fixations on the White House ballroom, the Kennedy Center, and various other D.C. projects only served to paint him as vainly focused on the wrong priorities.

Local realtor, guy was the sellers agent when I bought my house and he was very helpful and went out of his way to introduce to local trades when I got here. Also volunteers to do things like run the annual Independence Day fireworks, beach cleanups, etc.. I will lose everything else.

Doesn't matter. I am still voting like I always do. If nothing else it will let the winners know at least some of us don't support them.

Its interesting when charting money pissed away to elect candidate X compare to candidate X's legislative effectiveness, those lines go in opposite directions.

If you look at the aggregate of things done in the House or Senate SoS (Session over previous Session), they accomplish less and less and the functioning of the nation relies more and more on EO and bureaucratic cruise-control or the Regulatory Branch of government.

The assertation of the Esteemed Hawaiian Judge's complete and total rule over any matter, has disrupted this picture even more.

317 Months back, I asked Grok about the correlation between midterms prez approval and party losses.

The biggest thing you have to keep in mind is, there's not a lot of data; less than 20 marginally useful points.
Second, the biggest losses came after wave elections, where weak candidates were swept in 2 years before.

the biggest losses came when the prez had under 40 approval and the other party had over 10+ on the generic.

So, 100% of the Dems prediction of a blue tsunami are:
- Trump is deeply, widely unpopular
- Trump lost 40 seats in 2018

However, Trump is now over 40% and the only proof he is unpopular is ... polls. It shows up nowhere else.

2018 is not predictive, it's an outlier where over 50 Rs resigned, many of them senior members, where the entire GOPe was openly embracing the Russia hoax.
But I see the online left are taking 2018 as a baseline--and all their polls flow from that.

2018 happened because Dem numbers increased by...a weird amount.

Trump had the best retention numbers from his party for a midterm for a president in...a very long time. It was like 80% of the vote from the presidential GOP showed up for the GOP in the midterm.

Obama got about 60% in both of his midterms from Democrats.

In 2018, Democrats just increased...more. It was either highly animated base turnout (possible) or...well, 2020 happened 2 years later.

No it isn't. The Kennedy Center has been used by the Dems as their private Church for decades, siphoning off public money to put on increasingly degenerate, commie shows.

Both parties spent $200 million on that race alone.

And then Cruz won by 9 because...Texas is a deeply Republican state.

391 I'm still trying to figure out how a 20 year old woman amassed enough hours and training to garner a co-pilot seat in a multi-engine private jet.

She got her pilot's license at 17. I'm guessing that she made flying jets a priority. It was a small charter plane and she was probably cheaper.

You can't get experienced pilots without allowing younger pilots to fly.

========

Contentious senate elections drive up turnout in the states that have them. The electorates end up closely reflecting PVI of the state.

Which makes it pretty much impossible, outside of the rare incumbent like Manchin in 2018, for the wrong party to win a senate race in a state that the right party president won by 10 or more.

It has happened once this century (Tester in 2006, an awful GOP year). The idea that the GOP loses the senate requires at least 4 of these to happen this year. At the same time.

Waves crash unevenly. The are highest in favorable enclaves and lowest in unfavorable enclaves. They're muted, at best, in contentious senate states.

Give first lady my voter registration card - doesn't even look at it, just wants my name, address, birthdate to look up on her screen. Prints out the ballot claim ticket, rips it, so needs a supervisor to get a new one printed up. Finally handed to me, where I see it's my son's name (his middle name is my first). No, I didn't vote for him - got it straightened out. But right there - my voter reg. card with my full name and address was RIGHT THERE in her posession. And I ended up with the chance to vote twice. But no, we can't have Voter ID here. Red down the board, for what it's worth. Carroll County is still a bit of a red oasis here, but expecting for the worst today overall.

I said I'm not blaming her. There was obvious catostrophic failure in that aircraft. My question was, and the only thing I've found online was that she had 86 hours or some such.......27 is a LOT different in flight time than 20.

When my dad was flying privately (owned a Cessna 172), he never amassed enough hours for a multi-engine cert. Granted, that was 30+ years ago, but still. It took TONS of flight time to get each rating. She did it to get a seat in the cockpit in a Lear Jet by age 20?

Nationalizing SpaceX would involve handing Musk several hundred billion dollars. He'd just take himself, and most of his workforce, and move to another country and start over.

472 I said I'm not blaming her. There was obvious catostrophic failure in that aircraft. My question was, and the only thing I've found online was that she had 86 hours or some such.......27 is a LOT different in flight time than 20.

When my dad was flying privately (owned a Cessna 172), he never amassed enough hours for a multi-engine cert. Granted, that was 30+ years ago, but still. It took TONS of flight time to get each rating. She did it to get a seat in the cockpit in a Lear Jet by age 20?

No, the blame is on the 55 year old white male pilot. He made the catstrophic error. Was he overconfident? Did he miss it? Was he took concerned with getting to the Bahamas on time vs taking the time around? Who knows.

479 St. Louis Public Schools, a large school system, educated 115,000 students at its peak in the late 1960s. But by the start of the current academic year, after decades of poor performance, that number had fallen to below 17,000, approximately 15 percent of its former size, and plans are afoot to close 14 schools next year.

But school taxes will remain in place for several decades more to pay off the bonds and pension obligations.

Yeah, 48 hour rule is in effect. The NTSB is REALLY good at what they do. Eventually, there will be an 'Air Disasters' show about it.

It's going to take months for their report, so I'll just stop talking about it, especially since I am asking questions that irk some, and wait for their report.

Not so fast. There is a sizeable (~10%-15%) of the demographic who have no marketable skills, cannot be profitably trained, nor have the intelligence or physical ability to perform work.

They are too retarded to be trained, to feral to be around others, too irresponsible to be trusted in any capacity, or physically incapable of providing for themselves.

Society has no plan for these people, so we permit NGOs to discover proxies through fraud. Society just needs to optimize the fraud so that the retards aren't receiving G-Wagon levels of sustenance.

503 “I was one of the child victims of Donald Trump.” Dr. Larissa Portnoff, a clinical psychologist in her 30s, says it began around age 8 and resumed at 16 and 17. She thought she’d escaped “a pedophile ring,” calls Trump “clearly a pedophile and dangerous,” and says someone made an attempt on her life after her report.

Her message: “We need to get the corruption to stop. We need to use our voices. We need to get Donald Trump out of office.” And to Trump: “If you think you’re going to intimidate me, Donald Trump, it’s not going to work. I'm not afraid of you.” Please share.

'What are we voting for today? What’s on the ballot in Pennsylvania'
Maria Francis, USA TODAY NETWORK, updated today

In part, "It's Election Day, and Pennsylvania voters are heading to the polls Tuesday, Nov. 3, to decide who will represent them in Harrisburg and Washington.

Americans aren't voting for president this year. Instead, voters across the country will decide all 435 U.S. House seats and 35 U.S. Senate races, along with governors and state and local races.

For Pennsylvania voters, today's ballot includes the race for governor, all 17 U.S. House seats, 25 state Senate seats and all 203 state House seats. Pennsylvania does not have a regularly scheduled U.S. Senate race this year."

👉🏻Americans aren't voting for president this year.

I don't believe 3.5% of the population of this country is ready or able to dissemble it.

I do believe Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer, who denounced Haley Stevens' for her Republican endorsement as a "despicable betrayal," has done by far worse by far longer to the American people - including "his

Posted by: L - No nic... at November 03, 2026 10:30 AM (NFX2v)

508 (alleged) people" - and he's an old, scared and unworthy former political "warrior" in the U.S. Senate, now left groveling & doing only the bidding of his former superiors.

It's well known, it's time for Chuck to move on.

And no matter if No Kings protests go on and even expand, the fools in the streets don't know - or won't admit - the truth. But those running their games know they still need Trump & the majority of his cabinet to continue cleaning up the messes created by the Left and its Autopen Joe and his keepers.

PDT pulled up our country, and them up by extension, before & even despite impeachments & more, all after O & Joe's massive giveaways, education trashing, nation wasting.

And he's doing it again now, i.e., 'The U.S. manufacturing sector expanded in October 2026, marking its 10th consecutive month of growth according to the Institute for Supply Management (ISM),' by The Hill.

The sufferings of the country are by far more entwined in the past w/Democratic administrations. While a terrible lesson to revisit for the American people, it's up to the voters. "All politics IS local politics."

Give it to G-d. Vote. Protect you & yours.

imho

    And Ireland, Estonia, and the Netherlands as well.

    CEO Stephan Moelans said that while the company has been working "very hard" to protect its fridges against the vulnerability, physical modifications to its units are required. The company says switching units to a secure internet connection is the simplest solution in the meantime, a measure carried out by most of its customers in the wake of the France attack.
    It seems at least that this attack is on a smaller scale because many companies notice eventually if you keep stealing their wallets.

The first is much more likely to be run on a full on automation system (Schneider, Siemens, JCI, whoever). Those can be very robust for security, especially lately. But they can also be left wide the hell open if they're not set up right by the installers. I'd be curious to know what the system was that got attacked.

>>their prices push them right out of the market sector that they were supposed to be appealing to.

Once you add a power supply, case and some storage, you’re pushing over 500 dollars.

For that kind of money, you can get a refurbed sff hp for less that will be orders of magnitude more powerful, add in an ESP32 and you have a more powerful computer and more powerful microcontroller.

I think this price increase is an indicator that RPI intends to move out of the hobbiest market and just become a provider to industry.

69 Tech topic: I received my Spectrum router/modem (still marked as Cox) yesterday. There were no instructions in the box. The connections were pretty obvious, though. I hooked it up in place of the old one, found the temporary network name and password on the bottom of the case, and entered those. Then I rang up Spectrum to see how to change that network name and password. I entered a variation on the previous network's moniker and re-used the password. Done. The unit is dead silent, no soft roar like the old box.

G & R, regarding that list of unreliable Intel chipset modems: I don't see a manufacturer name on this modem. Part and serial number, and FCC ID, yes. But no company name. However, it does not say "Intel" anywhere on it or on the box it came in, or on the minimal documents. The web page said "Stand-alone routers do not have Intel chipsets." Is this a "stand-alone"?

I'll bring the old box to a Cox office today.

How would you know if lutefisk went bad?


You hear polka music coming from your freezer into the wee hours of the night and the next morning you find discarded empty akvavit scattered on the floor around it.

136 I've never been overly impressed with "French" (actually Parisian) cooking. It seems to me to consist of cooking (whatever it is) poorly, then drowning it in sauce in the hopes that no one will notice.

My theory has long been that it only got the reputation of being "good" by comparison with British food.

Traditionally this was a lute, hence the name: "lute" (lute) "fisk" (fish).

I remember one review of an all you can eat buffet restaurant that described their dessert offerings as "A wide variety of offerings of goo: chocolate goo, strawberry goo, and the like."

It recalled for me my days of going through the dorm cafeteria line and warily eyeing the dessrt offerings in their little bowls.We called the bowls themselves "monkees" back in the dish room. They were great favorites for the great unwashed to jam together in their efforts to find the perfect food glue.

147 @69/Wolfus: { G & R, regarding that list of unreliable Intel chipset modems: I don't see a manufacturer name on this modem. Part and serial number, and FCC ID, yes. But no company name. However, it does not say "Intel" anywhere on it or on the box it came in, or on the minimal documents. The web page said "Stand-alone routers do not have Intel chipsets." Is this a "stand-alone"? }

Maybe, but I'd look up the FCC ID at the FCC ID database and dig from there.

https://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid

{ I'll bring the old box to a Cox office today. }

Because I was burned three times in a row by Intel Puma 6 Chipsets in three subsequent modems, and I know the problem I ran into showed up between 24 and 36 hours of runtime, I'd wait till you have the current one running perfectly for 72 hours THEN return the old one. Once you give that old box up, you'll never see it again. They disappear the old boxes with a quickness.

Also sorry for the late reply, had a very early departure for my morning bus run this morning, and just got back home now.

Monday Night ONT - November 2, 2026 [TRex]

20261022-SandyUT1980.jpg

Good evening Horde. Welcome to the Monday overnight thread. The bar is open and the refrigerator has been freshly re-stocked with Rootbeer.

Welcome to the Monday night ONT which means vintage overnight fun and games. Pull up a chair and join the fun. Good will offerings of amusing puns are encouraged. Be nice to your fellow commenters and AoS contributors. Pants are optional. This ONT is a Tucker, Candace, Megyn, and Bill Kristol free zone. Fauci is fair game.

[Top photo: Frostop Rootbeer stand, Sandy, Utah. The chain folded in the early 1980s.]

***

The Monday ONT has dialed up the wayback machine with very random results.

***

A-1 taxi in Laredo, Texas - 1982. The company is still operating but at a different location. It claims to be one of the longest-running taxi companies in the area. The building on the photo was on Farragut Street, but there is no evidence it still exists.

20261021-A1TaxiFarragutLaredoTX1982.jpg

***

The Ace of Clubs Lounge on Route 90 in Lake Charles, Louisiana - 1979 (not to be confused with the Ace of Spades Club ONT). No evidence the Ace of Clubs still exists (at this location or otherwise nearby) or that the building remains.

20261021-AceofClubsLoungeRt90LakeCharlesLA1979.jpg

***

Octopus Car Wash was a chain in Minneapolis ("many hands to serve you"). This location was likely on University Avenue, near the St. Paul border. All locations are closed and the plastic octopus mascots were sold off. There is a current business in Minneapolis called Octopus Car Wash & Detail center that is not related, but trying to echo the former namesake.

Anyone ever seen (or have) one of the original octopus mascots?

20261021-carwashMinneapolisMN1981.jpg

***

The Clown Motel is still operating at 521 N Main St in Tonopah, Nevada.

The motel opened in 1985, founded by siblings Leroy and Leona David. They built it next to the historic Old Tonopah Cemetery (established around 1901) as a tribute to their late father, Clarence David. Clarence, a miner who died in the 1942 Belmont Mine fire, had collected more than 150 clown figurines and statues.

It has different ownership but still operates as "America's Scariest Motel" with 31 basic rooms, ghost-hunting gear rentals and a gift shop and clown museum.

20261022-clownmotel521NMainStTonopahNV.jpg

Exact photo date unknown, but believed to be post-2019.


***


"Dinosaurland" was likely an advertisement for the region rather than a specific location by that name. No evidence this billboard still exists but this photo was taken in 1991 on Route 40 near Vernal, Utah.

20261022-DinosaurLandRt40VernalUT1991.jpg

***

Jumer's Castle Lodge, 117 N. Western Ave. in Peoria, Illinois - 1980. The building is still standing but no longer operates as the original Bavarian themed hotel and restaurant.

James Jumer opened the Lodge (with restaurant and lounge) around 1970 on the site of the former Kramer's Drive-In. The Jumer's chain expanded to several locations in Illinois and Iowa but filed for bankruptcy in 1999.

The original architecture has been preserved and the location is now an assisted living facility.

20261022-JumersCastlePeoriaIL1980.jpg

***

Beauty Shop, Browning, Montana - 1987. Believed to be on the Blackfeet Reservation but specific location unknown.

20261021-MainStBrowningMT1987.jpg

Beauty really is in the eye of the beholder.

***

Main Street, Columbus Junction Iowa - 2003.

20261021-MainStColumbusJunctionIA2003.jpg

***

Spot Cleaners at 2701 Madison Street, Seattle, WA - 1980. Both the business and building are long gone.

20261021-SpotCleanersMadisonStSeattleWA1980.jpg

***

Union League, 140 South Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA - 1905.

The club was founded in 1862 as a patriotic society supporting the Union and Abraham Lincoln. The clubhouse was completed in 1865 and remains the organization's headquarters. There have been renovation and expansions but the building largely looks the same today.

20261022-unionleagephiladelphiaPA1905.jpg

***

One of roughly 20 themed fiberglass corn statues created in 2015 for the Community Corn Project by the Vinton Guild of Fine Arts. Benton County, Iowa. Still exists on the city hall grounds at the intersection of 2nd Avenue and East 4th Street.

I peeled one off of it's backing and wrote in 'Inigo Montoya' and wore it around until I was marched down to HR.

It was a gag in the Richard Pryor/Jackie Gleason movie The Toy. Gleason's name was U.S. Bates, but everyone pronounced it U-ass. (It actually got a bit tiresome due to repetition.) It was an ok movie, but I haven't seen it anywhere for a long time. It made fun of some PC stuff.

I switched to RPN during college, and still use it. It is actually painful for me to use a "regular" calculator, as I have to intensely concentrate on every step.

For those who don't know, RPN stands for Reverse Polish Notation. It saves about 20 percent of your required keystrokes, which was a very big deal before the days of personal computers, spreadsheets, and programmable calculators.

Open mike one end of the room, with a chair. We were sitting facing the fireplace, other end of the room (December, so nice near the fire). At some point music starts. One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer. Guy playing guitar and singing it. One of the group says "wait - damn, that sounds like Thorogood." It was. Didn't talk with him. Not that unusual to encounter singers/actors in the SB area like that, but it was funny.

RPN is always very easy and nice to implement as a stack machine type of thing. Operator precedence doesn't really matter.

As an exercise way back in college, I wrote one in C and then assembler. Very easy. Now, I also wrote a regular "forward" one. Much more complex, especially with parentheses. Both were done as simple command line that take an expression string as input and spew out the result.

“I was one of the child victims of Donald Trump.” Dr. Larissa Portnoff, a clinical psychologist in her 30s, says it began around age 8 and resumed at 16 and 17. She thought she’d escaped “a pedophile ring,” calls Trump “clearly a pedophile and dangerous,” and says someone made an attempt on her life after her report.

Her message: “We need to get the corruption to stop. We need to use our voices. We need to get Donald Trump out of office.” And to Trump: “If you think you’re going to intimidate me, Donald Trump, it’s not going to work. I'm not afraid of you.” Please share.

I check the mail about once a week. I had two dozen shiny political mailers, all of which did not make it past the overfull trash can at the post office. I figure that's where nearly all of them, for the entire state, end up, so I doubt it will sway a single vote.

Also, you don't see yard or street signs for conservative candidates up here. Only the lefties, because those homeowners are virtue signalling like their lives depend upon it, and the rest of us, which are the majority, are voting for the conservative candidates and don't need adulation to do so.

Started today and everything seemed to be going okay until the pound called and told us there is a recall on the pain meds they used so our appointment got canceled. I've got 4 of the six and now what? They won't fall for the traps again. This is screwed.

Must watch... she's so brave.
“I was one of the child victims of Donald Trump.” Dr. Larissa Portnoff, a clinical psychologist in her 30s, says it began around age 8 and resumed at 16 and 17. She thought she’d escaped “a pedophile ring,” calls Trump “clearly a pedophile and dangerous,” and says someone made an attempt on her life after her report.

Her message: “We need to get the corruption to stop. We need to use our voices. We need to get Donald Trump out of office.” And to Trump: “If you think you’re going to intimidate me, Donald Trump, it’s not going to work. I'm not afraid of you.” Please share.

275 Election Update:

I had another wild day today. Had my first interview with the New York Times (?!!) about this AirTag incident. Got the bodycam footage and put that out there a few minutes ago. It really doesn't make Hughes look good at all. I could have put out worse, but at some point I've got to look at myself and ask whether I want to stoop to the other side's level. After having considered how I believe God wants me to act, I decided to simply stop here, and let the consequences come. There's still a good chance that I'll lose anyway, because two weeks of early voting has people deciding things without having all available info beforehand. On the other hand, I have a much better chance than I would have thought two weeks ago. It can honestly go either way.

I have to live with myself, even though a loss would be a setback for my town. If I've gotten through Obama and Biden, I can get through a loss like this. It's in God's hands now.

We always stay at Tonopah Station.

Dinosaur National Monument is right outside of Vernal. It's a somewhat strange park. It's a good sized territory, and the vast majority of it is managed as wilderness/backcountry land along the Green and Yampa(?) Rivers, but one very small section is the big tourist draw - a large hilllside, covered with partially excavated, largely intact, dinosaur skeletons, easily visible from the walkway. The whole thing is covered in a giant enclosed pole barn to protect them. Before the government got the property, a number of skeletons were removed. Two of them are centerpieces in the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh.
It's quite impressive.

Hello there.

Ellipsis'ss Soft Sandwich Loaf

430 g All Purpose Flour (King Arthur preferred)
1 tbsp sugar
9.5 g salt
3/4 tsp diastatic malt powder (optional but will make a difference)
2.5 tbsp baking milk powder (highly recommended)
1.5 tsp yeast
280 g water
1.2 oz baking oil (avocado is good)

Instructions/Notes to follow because I am long-winded

Posted by: ... at November 03, 2026 12:15 AM (vE0+H)

289 Ellipss'ssss Soft White Sandwich Loaf continued
1. Combine ingredients and knead with dough hook on low (KitchenAid speed 2 or 3) for 6–10 minutes, until smooth, elastic, and preferably passing the windowpane test.

2. Place in a lightly oiled container, covered, until doubled, approximately 1½–2½ hours at room temp.

3. Gently flatten into a rectangle, roll snugly into a loaf, and pinch seam closed. Look up a quick sandwich-loaf shaping video if needed.

4. Place seam-down in a parchment-lined 9×5 pan. Cover and rise until peak is about 1 inch above rim (45–90 minutes).

5. Preheat oven to 375. Bake for approximately 35 minutes. Cool on a rack before slicing.

*** You can reduce or omit the sugar but it is doing work besides adding sweetness. Can't stress how much I recommend the two optional ingredients which can both be found on Amazon. If you don't want to use milk powder, you can just replace the water with milk. But don't use both. I have a version that uses sourdough starter and yeast together and it makes a pretty huge difference but this should still make you a good bread as is. Happy to share. It took me a while to develop this one. Makes a nice soft classic white bread.

You can use a bread machine to mix up your dough instead of a kitchenaid and then just proceed from Step 2.

Ideally you want to get the dough to a windowpane consistency so you can stretch it and it makes a thin membrane instead of tearing apart. I didn't target this to any skill level I just simplified my own recipe and tried to give enough guidance.

They just wrapped up the Picard special with the episode where he "dies" and Q gives him the chance to redo his reckless youth and makes things right.

He learns that if had done it "right", and not been so reckless, he wouldn't have become Captain, and would've live a boring, lifeless life as a junior officer drone, accomplishing nothing.

I couldn’t make out the middle one.

Aripiprazole 5 mg is an antipsychotic medicine (brand name Abilify) used to treat conditions such as schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder, and it may be used for other related mental health conditions depending on the patient. It comes as oral forms like tablets, and it is available only with a doctor’s prescription.

Lamotrigine Extended-Release 50 mg is a medication used primarily to prevent and control seizures in people with epilepsy. It works by calming overactive nerves in the body and may also be used to help manage mood swings in bipolar disorder.

336 There's a lot of talk about color revolutions, and what to expect on Wednesday, if not Tuesday night, of people flooding the streets with their garbage about how the elections were stolen etc etc.

It got me to thinking, though. Part of the premise of a color revolution is that the populace hears your lie that everything is illegitimate, sees you as legitimate, and accepts you stealing power. But what if the populace hears your lie that you were cheated, and enough of us say: "Good"?

What if enough of the people are so sick of all your filthy, parasitic evil that any news that "our guys" straight up cheated to keep you out of power is met with a kind of joy? I'd love to have a system based on the rule of law, but if you won't let us have that I'd settle for a system based on doing everything possible to keep you scumbags away from it.

I would have loved to have had a rock diving lab to help me build stuff. He's cool!

Our Golden, who hated water, would drop his tennis ball into the pool and stare at it til we got it out for him. No way he was going in and this was his game.

The only time he dunked his snout was in a bowl of water if there were ice cubes. He did like ice cubes and was very brave and blowing bubbles.

We know he was defective but he made up for the water deal by being the sweetest dog to ever live. It also probably saved a lot on the pool filters.

24 The only time he dunked his snout was in a bowl of water if there were ice cubes. He did like ice cubes and was very brave and blowing bubbles.

We know he was defective but he made up for the water deal by being the sweetest dog to ever live. It also probably saved a lot on the pool filters.

My grandfather didn't talk about WWII much. I gather he'd Seen Some Shit.

One story he would tell was about one of the islands where the women traditionally go topless. He was at a base there for a while, and (naturally) he and his fellow young GIs had no objection whatsoever to this post. It sure beat the shit out of slogging through the jungle waiting for a bunch of crazy (pardon the expression) Nips to launch a banzai charge.

Anyway, some of the natives were hired to perform various tasks. Some stick-up-the-ass officer decreed that the women MUST wear shirts at all times while they were on post, and had them issued Army t-shirts for this purpose.

The women were pleased as hell with their new finery and wore them all the time, not just when they were at work.

However, they found them rather...confining... so they soon cut two big holes in the chestal region so the girls could run wild and free.

Heh.

We dressed them up as dinosaurs on Halloween and the kids were more excited about petting the dogs than they were getting candy. The golden would go out and meet all the kids and try to follow them, I spent a lot of time making her come back to the house.

QUESTION 2: "Freedom to gather in places of worship during an emergency. Shall section 18 of article I of the constitution, which deals with religious liberty, be amended to prohibit the state or a political subdivision of the state from ordering the closure of, or forbidding gatherings in, places of worship in response to a state of emergency, including a public health emergency?"

QUESTION 3: "Governmental entity discrimination prohibited. Shall section 27 of article I of the constitution be created to prohibit governmental entities in the state from discriminating against, or granting preferential treatment to, any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin in public employment, public education, public contracting, or public administration?"

117 Things that I really could have lived without knowing:

Some teratomas (a type of tumor) can grow hair, teeth, etc. Sometimes even eyes!

Formerly these were thought to be a resorbed twin, but that turns out to not usually be the case.

These, I knew about.

BUT... these tumors can occasionally form in the vagina, leading to a vagina that is indeed dentata.

I now have to live with this knowledge and you do too.

Because I'm a giver that way.

Been meaning to tell you that I laughed at your comment of your husband with his walker and jet propelled with his proud gas last week.

I need to laugh because my mother, in rehab for a back fracture repair, was set to go home tomorrow. She's delayed a day or two as she got pneumonia. All is set up for her at home with 24/7 sitters, equipment, etc.

Not a huge surprise after 1 week of hospital and 2 wks of acute rehab to get pneumonia at almost 96yrs. I talked to her Saturday and she tells me to stay here.

Meanwhile, if you've seen, my wicked sister-in-law is telling me to fly home and do mother's laundry and order groceries.

I find out from mother on Sat. that her housekeeper does this.

My brother has no idea what is going on & I'm not telling him or my mother that a Jerry Springer star has suddenly arrived to mess with me in pre-grief.

Using a 1g constant acceleration trajectory (well, 1g acceleration halfway there, then flip and decelerate the other half to match course and speed with Mars), the travel time would be a mere 3 days.

Top speed midway with the constant 1g trajectory woul be only about 0.05% c. Now, to the outer solar system, you would get up to around 2% c, and that would be a problem for shielding. The slightest little dust particle would be like a missile blowing up.

You perform multiplication and division on a slide rule because the scales are laid out logarithmically. Since the distances are logarithms of the numbers they represent, when you add distances, you multiply the numbers. Similarly, subtracting distances leads to division. I am just old enough to have used a slide rule in high school. They were gone by college, replaced with pocket calculators.

EXCLUSIVE: A Honduran illegal alien who was arrested by ICE in Minnesota during Operation Metro Surge, issued a deportation order, then ordered released from ICE detention by a Clinton-appointed federal judge on "due process" grounds has now been arrested & charged w/ raping a woman in her Minnesota home while working as a handyman after his release. Police say the rape was captured on the woman's internal home surveillance video.

Authorities in Ramsey County, MN have charged 42-year-old MARCOTULIO MELENDEZ DIAZ with felony 1st degree criminal sexual penetration w/ coercion. According to the criminal complaint, on October 11th, MELENDEZ DIAZ allegedly overpowered and repeatedly raped the female victim in her own home in Mounds View, MN against her will while working as a handyman, and the assault was captured on the woman's internal home surveillance system video. He is in custody on $150,000 bond and will face up to 30 years in prison if convicted. ICE has placed a detainer on him.

ICE sources tell FOX that MELENDEZ DIAZ was initially caught and released at the Texas border by the Biden administration in April 2024. ICE arrested him in Minnesota in January 2026 during Operation Metro Surge and transferred him to ICE detention in Texas where he initially crossed the border illegally. An immigration judge issued him a deportation order on 3/30/2026 and MELENDEZ DIAZ appealed. But on 8/7/2026, a federal judge in the Western District of Texas, Judge Orlando L. Garcia (Clinton appointee) ordered MELENDEZ DIAZ released from ICE custody and granted his habeas petition on grounds of "due process", and MELENDEZ DIAZ made his way back to Minnesota.

The Board of Immigration Appeals then rejected MELENDEZ DIAZ's appeal on 10/9/2026 and issued him a final deportation order, and two days later, police say he raped the Minnesota woman in her home.

Frustrated ICE sources say this alleged rape would have never happened if MELENDEZ DIAZ had remained in ICE custody.

I've reached out to Judge Garcia's office & courtroom deputy for comment.


Pro-terrorist antiamerican communist and adulterer Democrat Sen. Chris Murphy has suffered a stroke.

Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., is "awake and alert" after being hospitalized for a stroke over the weekend, the New York Times reported, citing his chief of staff.

He was attending a hockey game when he suffered the stroke.

Thoughts and prayers. Well, thoughts anyway.

The Daily Kos governor of Connecticut slapped a reporter's phone from her hand when the communist was asked a question he didn't like. See, all of these fairies and pussies are tough guys now.

But Trump's so crude and aggressive! He SHREDZZZ NORMZZZ!

Churchgoers say that Haley Stevens' endorsement of Mike Rogers might change their votes.

"We can't stand with hate. We can't stand with Hasan Piker," Stevens told reporters after the morning service. "All I can do is lead with love and integrity."

...

"When young Jewish women have to hide their Star of Davids to walk across the University of Michigan campus, we have gone too far. When young men have to wear ball caps over their yarmulkes, for being Jewish, we have gone too far," Rogers said. "This is more a statement about standing together against hate and the future of this state and this country than it is anything else."

Church attendees told the Free Beacon that they were encouraged to see the display of bipartisanship at the service and that it might even change some votes.

"I thought [the joint appearance] was interesting. It could be taken as bipartisan, people working together on both sides, Democrat and Republican. That could be a good thing," the first churchgoer said. "But it also could be a dig [that] elevates the tension," she added.

Another woman leaving the church said she hadn't "made up her mind yet" on the election, but was "very pleased that [Rogers] did stay for the whole service."

"We do have a lot of candidates who come when they're running for something, and he did stay for the whole service," she said. "So I appreciate that."

Muslims should not be allowed to make these types of brazen threats of Jihad.

Asked if Palestine has the right to a homeland, the Five Foot Five Fedayeen Fireplug answered immediately and simply: "Yes."

Asked if Israel has the right to a homeland, he said "Yes, but... Israel will have to accept" conditions he doesn't spell out, but which, in another answer, seem to be that Israel will have to accept that Palestinians have the right not just to Gaza and the West Bank but all of Israel.

So yes, Israel can exist, so long as it is actually Arab-dominated Palestine.


Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed (and how I pray to the Lord I never have to write that name again after tomorrow, except in a post-mortem (and you can take that as you wish)) says that boys should be allowed to wag their pickles in front of girls in changing rooms because we have the internet now and you can see anything you want to see so obviously young girls should be forced to look at weirdo's cocks against their consent.

It's just the "free flow of information," you know.



DOUTHAT: What is taught in school? What happens with transgender kids on sports teams and so on, right? Like, these are places where rights are in conflict. Right? What do you think happens there?

EL-SAYED: I don't know if that's actually true. I think we manufacture these social issues, because here's the thing about it. Ross, you have an iPhone in your pocket, probably. Or is it iPhone or Samsung? You have a phone in your pocket, right?

DOUTHAT: Yeah.

EL-SAYED: You can get access to everything and anything in the whole world, all the world's information in your pocket. The notion, somehow, that you are going to prevent your child from being exposed to something that you may find disagreeable, and that that is going to be because of school, is so profoundly outdated.

So what you're saying is that it's okay to f*** nine year old girls because porn exists?

Because, of course, you have all the information, and they have all the information. So here's the thing about it. I think it's really important for us to recognize that the free flow of information is actually a beautiful thing.

It's really important. And the most important thing you can do is not try to protect a person from seeing a thing. It's about trying to make sure you coach your kid through the world that you are engaging with them and saying, 'here's what I believe, here's what you may see in the world, you get to make your choices about who you're going to be in the world.' But that's going to require us to make do with the fact that, like, the internet is a real thing, and this debate about, like, quote-unquote what's taught in the classroom, I think has been made into a cultural flashpoint, because a lot of the folks who want to make this a topic of conversation don't want to be talking about the real issues that we face.

Rich Lowry
@RichLowry

In trying to minimize the wrong of girls being exposed to male genitalia in locker rooms, AES proves much, too much.

He advances an argument that would mean adults never trying to protect kids from *anything*, since they can be exposed, in theory, to whatever it is on the internet at any time.

What is supposed to be a clever defense of the indefensible turns out to be one of the most sweeping, and stupid, arguments we've ever heard for trans radicalism

Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed rejects, get this, the two state solution and argues that Palestinians' have a "right to self-determination" over all of Israel.

But remember, all he wants to talk about is "affordability" and health care, right?

HOLY SH*T. A 15yo girl in Maryland ESCAPED an attempted kidnapping after Abubakarr Barrie, an ILLEGAL ALIEN, allegedly took her to a basement and tried to K*LL her.

The girl managed to fight off her attacker and then flee while suffering from a collapsed lung.

Barrie was released into the country under Biden. He was released from NYPD custody a few months ago despite having an ICE detainer.

He’s now facing multiple charges, including attempted first-degree murder and kidnapping.

10 EL-SAYED: You can get access to everything and anything in the whole world, all the world's information in your pocket. The notion, somehow, that you are going to prevent your child from being exposed to something that you may find disagreeable, and that that is going to be because of school, is so profoundly outdated.

13 Remember:
Haley Stevens--with a potential whole career ahead of her--endorses a Republican because the Democrat is so offensive.

But the GOPe that quit, retired or got fired this year--all with no future career--refuse to endorse or campaign for any Republican.

Those very same GOPe demanded the base always support their candidates when they won the primary

Predictions about Kraft Cinnamon Mac & Cheese:

- sold out the day it hits stores

- the next Buccee's when the Europeans return

- kids' favorite (the sort of food they eat to the tantrum-throwing exclusion of all others, like dinosaur-shaped chicken tenders)

- shows up in a Sunday food thread

- the source of many memes

- tastes surprisingly okay

103 Just the Network, the parent company of Just the News, announced Monday it was releasing its new streaming television app early so that users can experience the network’s midterm election coverage on Tuesday.

The Just the Network app is already available on iOS, Android, Fire TV, Apple TV, Samsung, LG and Roku platforms and will expand both distribution and content over the next few months ahead of its formal first-quarter launch, CEO Mark Meckler said.

104 Nicki Minaj vs. Bruce Springsteen — Audience Reach
These two artists have very different audiences.

Nicki Minaj has the advantage in contemporary digital reach, particularly among younger listeners. Bruce Springsteen has the advantage in longevity, multigenerational recognition, and the ability to attract enormous audiences to live concerts.

The important distinction is between how many people listen to an artist regularly, how many follow them, and how many will actually buy a concert ticket.
Current audience comparison

Figures reported November 1, 2026, primarily from Chartmetric.
Metric Nicki Minaj Bruce Springsteen
Spotify monthly listeners 45.5 million 22.2 million
Instagram followers 223.7 million 2.4 million
YouTube subscribers 28.5 million 2.6 million
YouTube lifetime views 13 billion 3.2 billion
Spotify followers 35.3 million 8.1 million

And Nicki LOVES President Trump. No Instagram. I wanted to tell her today how much I like her.

That's my reaction to most "flavored" coffees. They are too cloying, esp. when you put a bit of sweetener in them (which I proudly admit to doing). Cinnamon doesn't dissolve easily, it gloms up the flavor, and it floats on the surface of the coffee and winds up on your tongue.

127 Little-known food fact:

The substance in 95+% of modern "cinnamon" products is actually "cassia," a related species branded by marketing departments at "Saigon Cinnamon," because it can be grown in Southeast Asia -- but technically speaking isn't true cinnamon, but merely a distantly related species that tatses somewhat similar.

TRUE cinnamon ONLY grows in Ceylon (Sri Lanka), cost up to 5x as much, and tastes (according to afficionados) 20x better. But because most Americans have only ever taste "cassia" mislabled as "cinnamon," they by now actually prefer cassia, think that "that;s waht cinnamon iis," and would find true cinnoman slightly bizarre-tasting and unfamiliar.

Please to be specific ... Cleveland Heights.

Though they're buying a very pricey property in Bratenahl:

"Bratenahl is an affluent, independent village in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, located on the southern shore of Lake Erie and surrounded by Cleveland on three sides. With a population of approximately 1,400, it is one of Cleveland’s oldest streetcar suburbs, known for its Gilded Age mansions, high per capita wealth, and seclusion from the city."

Seems this Judges blatant disrespect for the Aiding and Abetting Illegal Alien Act, pretty much led to this rape.

So I'd LOVE to see Trump come out with an executive order saying Sovereign Immunity is waved in this case... so the Judge can be sued.

I read a story about a nutcase (I have to assume a liberal save the world vs a missionary) who tried to make friends with cannibals in the Amazon. It didn't end well for him.

Prior to this he noted the nekkid men with spears would swarm out to his boat as the women and children sheltered. He never got to see them, sadly.

Of course I have no idea where I saw this story but it was in the last few years. I didn't dream it.

I did dream 20yrs ago that Judge Judy died. I didn't watch Judge Judy but told my father this and he believed me. About two weeks later he called me laughing that I was full of baloney, but had convinced him. I am very convincing.

Orange hair and red teefs.

We never added my father's oral military history diaries to the Library of Congress due to stories like this that he laughed through as he told us. However, we liked them.

I had ordered the questions and we videoed him. Sometimes he was laughing at me trying to use the new camera. Sometimes I had to cut the video because mother would walk through yapping about a cousin's phone call. It is not professional at all.

My grandfather didn't talk about WWII much. I gather he'd Seen Some Shit.

One story he would tell was about one of the islands where the women traditionally go topless. He was at a base there for a while, and (naturally) he and his fellow young GIs had no objection whatsoever to this post. It sure beat the shit out of slogging through the jungle waiting for a bunch of crazy (pardon the expression) Nips to launch a banzai charge.

Anyway, some of the natives were hired to perform various tasks. Some stick-up-the-ass officer decreed that the women MUST wear shirts at all times while they were on post, and had them issued Army t-shirts for this purpose.

The women were pleased as hell with their new finery and wore them all the time, not just when they were at work.

However, they found them rather...confining... so they soon cut two big holes in the chestal region so the girls could run wild and free.

Heh.

Polls Are Made for Strippers and They Get Greasy and Slippery Around Closing Time

The New York Times admits that Republicans are 30% less likely to respond to polls at all.

And if a group disfavored by the media party refuses to answer at such high rates -- what is the skew within that group? That is, among the Republicans who do answer, is it the case that Republicans voting Democrat are the most likely "Republicans" to answer a leftwing pollster's questions?

I don't know. Seems likely to me, though.


Eric Daugherty
@EricLDaugh

🚨 UPDATE: New York Times just warned their blue wave final midterm polls are being flooded by white Democrats, with white Republicans answering **LESS THAN 2020**

"The persistence of this kind of nonresponse bias introduces the risk of a systematic polling error like those in 2016 or 2020."

"This cycle, Democrats are once again responding to Times/Siena polls at a much higher rate than Republicans. Across these final battleground polls, registered white Democrats were about 30 percent likelier to take the poll than registered white Republicans. That's actually a bit higher than in the final polls in 2020."

Show up.

Make their worst fears come true.

I suppose it's also possible that Republicans aren't answering pollsters' phone calls because we're dispirited or ashamed of our votes for Trump -- but, of course, pollsters also predicted big wins for Democrats in 2024. NBC claimed that Kamala Harris would smoke Trump by 5 points.

CNN's Harry Enten has been warning Democrats that the polls routinely, persistently, systematically overstate Democrat vote-share by around 3.5% in every single election, and if you adjust current poll figures to reflect that, suddenly Democrat gains in the Senate vanish into gas like yesteday's chalupa from Brian Stelter's colon.

c Abbenante
@EricAbbenante

Oct 30

Harry Enten looks over the 'spooky data' for the Democrats heading into the 2026 midterms:

Harry Enten: "They need to win in states that Donald John Trump didn't just win two years ago, but won by double digits.

Senate flips in states that the party lost by ten or more points in the last presidential election.

The number is 0 since 2011.

There have been times in which the polls actually suggested, hey, Republicans might actually lose in some of these Trump won states. And then it didn't happen. And we've seen it happen time and in time out.

GOP has beat the final Senate poll average by 4.1 points in states Trump won in the prior presidential election.

So if the past polling errors hold in these Trump one states, then all of a sudden Republicans are able to hold on to the United States Senate and with ease."

Wave goodbye, to the blue wave.

Communist front-group NBC has a poll that shows Republicans with a higher approval rating than Democrats, and higher approval on most of the main issues of the campaign, but you wouldn't know that from NBC's headline:

NBC News
@NBCNews

A new national NBC News poll finds key groups that boosted Trump in 2024 are shifting toward Democrats ahead of Tuesday's elections.

What they mean is that some left-leaning groups that shifted towards Trump in 2024 are now shifting back to the Democrats.

Which is what I'd expect, and it is a problem.

But here's what they're not highlighting:



Ed Morrissey:

Pollsters know this better than anyone. How are they addressing their pending credibility crisis? Some, like NBC's pollster, have shifted sharply away from their blue-wave predictions. Their new data shows Republicans suddenly leading on all of the presumed big issues in the election -- the economy, immigration, and corruption:

Even on the unpopular Iran war, Democrats only lead by five points, and only by one point on inflation, AKA "affordability." It's a wash on "protecting democracy," even before respondents got to absorb Democrats' attempt to defraud voters in Alaska with The Two Dans Sullivan plot. The GOP has a two-point lead on the economy, a five-point margin on corruption, and an eleven-point lead on immigration despite the two-year hysterics Democrats and the media have pitched over ICE and deportations.

Democrats lead on inflation by a single point -- one single point -- and on Iran by 5%.

- depress GOP voters and lower GOP turnout

Recall the Des Moines Register poll in late 2024 that showed Trump behind in Iowa by 3 points.
He won the state by 12 points.

33 I've seen and heard a lot of pretty compelling reasons why polls might be *under*-representing Democratic votes, but not much going the other way.

If Dems get 54 seat and Grassley dies, that’s 55. Plus in 2028 picking off North Carolina, Wisconsin gives them 57. Ohio and Florida are special elections and if Murkowski retires, there’s a shot they can get 60 senate seats. Unlikely, but possible.

They will nuke the filibuster. We won't need 60.

Republicans have done an impressive, truly impressive job of shitting the bed and tanking their numbers. This is always what aligning with Trump will ultimately get you.

2028 better all be about corruption or dems don’t have a good chance. Hopefully the house exposes something

Given how the corruption story has FINALLY broken through, it will be a major part of the 2026 Blue wave, even if the Dems didn't fully capitalize on it.

Sorry what corruption story?

Is this a serious question? More like it hit a critical mass. What breaks through is “corruption at the expense of regular Americans”. Which need time for the “let them eat cake while we build the data centers” to develop.

43 These polls are seriously flawed and its obvious.

Turnout. Turnout. Turnout.

Even honest polls miss swings in turnout when some cohorts unexpectedly get off their asses and vote.

Happened in 2016 when Hillary was 95% certain to win, because the polls said so. They missed White Non-College coming out for Trump, unexpectedly.
(I called 300+ EVs with a 5% increase in White Non-College)

I expect it will happen tomorrrow. Let us pray ...

48 I saw several lefties passing around their own version of "unskew the polls."

See, the NYT has adjusted the weighting of raw responses since 2022.

And if you use that old weighting, the polls understate Dems by 2-5 points.

Or:
250 in the House and 55 in the Senate.

Rs holding the Senate will crush them.
Holding both will obliterate them.

Then, after they're done crying, they'll get all fake and gay and start jerking off to internet randos "proving" Musk hacked the election with XP7000 Starlink UltraMaga satellites.

For the last three months I've received literally dozens of them every week.
I picked up a Political Call once and it was a pollster asking me about a survey of who I was voting for. I lied about most, but not all of them. In the last month or so, I continue to pick up many of the Political Calls, just to mess with their surveys, and never, ever tell them what I am really thinking.

But, I'll do something nobody has probably ever done at this site. At least for a decade. Here's a TIME MAGAZINE article.

How Nicki Minaj Went MAGA

The best-selling female rapper in history has just addressed the World Liberty Forum, a crypto confab hosted by Trump’s sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump. She pauses to take in the decor, asking about portraits of Trump and of Mar-a-Lago’s original owner, Marjorie Merriweather Post. Admiring The Visionary, she remarks that Trump has a unique aura. “It’s the same way Marilyn Monroe represents a vibe,” she says. “Donald Trump is his own vibe.”

So is Minaj. She is wearing a shiny gold satin jacket, diamonds as big as the Ritz, and fluffy high heels. At 43, she is one of the defining pop-rap figures of the era, with more than 130 Billboard Hot 100 entries, more than 20 BET Awards, tens of billions of global streams, and a social media reach exceeding 200 million followers. Yet her turn from provocative, path-breaking artist to Trump acolyte has made her a pariah to some in the music industry and surprised her fan base

95 I remember the skew in the polls watching Florida 10-20 years ago as it shifted from purple to red.

Every year, the Republicans gained in net voter registrations, and eventually surpassed the number of registered Democrats.

Yet I would still see polls actually weighted something like 39/35 Democrats over Republicans.

When a pollster skews against the known actual weighting, they are not attempting to accurately predict the election results, and therefore must have some OTHER goal.

The pollsters frequently play this game, and it has gotten so bad that they work very hard NOT to publish their cross-tabs.

99 I'll repeat what I said this morning:

There is no historical basis for a state that went 10%+ for the President to swing 5% to the other party in the midterm.
None.
Not even Obamamania.
Not even Watergate.

But there is historical precedent for a President to expand his party in the House and Senate--defying historical trends:
W in 2002.

And he did it almost all in states he'd won in 2000.

Say, where has Trump been holding rally after rally after rally?

While Trump is some 20-30% lower over-all approval than W had, he has a 5-7% higher intra-party approval than W did at that time.

Why oh why did Trump keep going to red states?!

126 I doubt polls have ever been very reliable in decades. Who has land lines at this point to really have a true poll?

Sure,sure I've had a couple of random text political ads I quickly block. I also don't answer the door to guys with a tablet in their hands as I can see the dweebs with my phone and can't be bothered.

Polls have gone the way of reading the news on paper daily, along with the propaganda they spread since I was in college. They are meaningless in my obviously biased and pompous, flatulent opinion.

If anyone but a raging lesbo or trans or antifa, blind to their own bias, think polls are important then, well, scream at the sky. You are dumb-dumbs to start with and I can't hear you!

While I haven't watched FOX since 2012, I hesitate to read (I also don't have X) and believe anything horny Ed Henry tells me after his sordid past. yug.

Posted by: Oldcat at November 02, 2026 05:44 PM (uhVAy)

******
They had turbulence then icing, so I read. Were advised to go higher above the small cell they flew into. After avoiding the big one.

It was assumed, as it is early, the turbulence and overspeeding had them then lose the horizontal stabilizer and it was a done deal at this point. And/or if the wing de-icer thingie was broken. However, pilot comments I read said it was done once they lost the horizontal stabilizer, which I would not recognize if it arrived and rang my doorbell.

It was fast and over minutes from a chart I saw with the radar. The pilots knew 90 seconds prior to death. Which seems a short period of time until you are living in terror

In my (dubious) memory, it certainly seems to be the majority.

I have watched storms sweep across the radar or satellite views for decades related to my job.

IMO, most of the time, just waiting four hours would significantly change your odds of encountering dangerous storm conditions.

Playing russian roulette to save four hours of your time (and perhaps your loved ones' time) seems like an exceedingly poor risk assessment to me.

Yes. Apparently at the same time she was telling ATC there was ice on the wings (-57 degrees F) and no control,plummeting to the ground after being told to fly higher and they couldn't. BF got texts saying the same.

The 55yr old pilot was trying but it was hopeless as the plane was falling apart. I read a an estimate of the fall at 600mph or .9 Mach. This lear could maybe handle .8 Mach. I have no idea as I haven't had learing about Lear's and am only typing what I leared.

I read this but have no idea what I am talking about. I am basically the Golden Retriever at the keyboard who reads fast and remembers facts. But have not made anything up, please keep that in mind. It was simply horrific and a miracle no one was injured or died on the ground.

Grassley has said that if he were to die in office, he wants a Republican governor to appoint his replacement. I have no idea how close the polls for that are, our local radio station is making bank from the anti-Lahn ads and this is the area Lahn grew up in.

He decided to try and outrun Georgia State Police in the rain while wearing nothing but street clothes. He thought he was some kind of rally racer by sticking his knee out while barely leaning the bike.

Chase ended when he accidentally steered into a GSP cruiser and went tumbling on asphalt before having a GSP SUV park its engine over him.

200 However, pilot comments I read said it was done once they lost the horizontal stabilizer, which I would not recognize if it arrived and rang my doorbell.

Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at November 02, 2026 05:57 PM (hzuYO)

The "horizontal stabilizers" are the small winglike panels at the tail end. The one that sticks up is the vertical stabilizer. All of them have adjustable surfaces for controlling the craft. I'm less sure they are really missing rather than just not brought out in the few frames between leaving the overcast and hitting the ground. On some clips it is hard to see even the wings and the pilots don't seem to comment on their plane coming apart as they are dropping.

I saw a show of a British archaeology team excavating a WWII spitfire plane that had crashed in a French field early in the war. It also came straight down and the entire 30 some foot long plane's body was compressed into a stack something like 6-8 foot tall. They even found a small chain off the pilot's jacket and gave it to the fellow's brother.

Read about this as well last night.

And many, many discussions of the blurry photo of the jet a few feet before impact. Many noting the horizontal stabilizer was missing (possible wing tip and entire wing on one side). No idea as these were comments, some from supposed pilots.

I saw a little white car that looked directly below impact and apparently they lived as no injuries or deaths on the ground reported. Which is a miracle.

Not sure there is an apt analogy for cars, since you cannot fall out of the sky in a car.

OTOH, if you hit black ice at a high rate of speed, there is a chance that nothing the driver does from that point controls the actual end state of the car.

212 It doesn't really sound like the young (20) female pilot is particularly at fault here. Weather, the bad decision to travel into it, icing and resulting inability to control the aircraft sounds like it will account for the crash.

But I do think, all things being equal, most people do not want to board a civilian aircraft and see a 20-year-old in the cockpit in any capacity. Experience and maturity are likely big advantages in emergency situations in particular.

Just prior to the day of the accident, the deicer boots on the tail were replaced. But the rivets on the underside of one deicer boot were not reinstalled. After several flights the boot broke away during decent. Plane started nosing for the ground. Then the tail ripped away. Leaving just a small hole in a field.

262 From the article -

Of course, there is also the possibility that the low resolution dashcam footage of the crash just didn’t capture the horizontal stabiliser due to the speed of the crash. A thin surface such as this could be difficult to distiguish in such footage.

It is now the job of the air crash investigation team to establish the cause of the incident. The complete destruction of the wreckage on impact will make that job harder, but flight data recorders, cockpit voice recorders and other data will add valuable evidence to the outcome of this tragic event.

I think they can based on what I've read. On commercial airliners they are equipped with deicer heater things. As well as a coating of stuff at the airports I fly in and out of.

This happened very fast in that very small cell they flew into. The panic indicates it was sudden.

ATC told her to fly higher and they couldn't. I think due to something being messed up from turbulence.

Big planes can withstand more weather, I have to assume, after being on a few that did. One nearly went into a Dutch Roll, which is to be avoided, altho the entire plane dropped straight down 10k feet (in 1981 and didn't make the news).

I haven't been alarmed by turbulence since then. Maybe I should be, but I figure it will be pretty fast.

The Coup In Poland

The globalists launched another coup.

When the right took power, they installed judges they liked, which the left could not abide.

This entire coup is a dry run for what they plan in America -- take over the courts, pack them with leftists who will rubber-stamp every authoritarian measure the left decrees.

Crisis began with right-wing victory, court control

The Constitutional Tribunal is responsible for checking the compatibility of laws, policies and international agreements with the national constitution.

It has been a major bone of contention between the current pro-European government and the main opposition party, national-conservative Law and Justice (PiS).

PiS drastically transformed the country's justice system after winning election in 2015, including establishing political control over top courts such as the Constitutional Tribunal and the Supreme Court. This was done in part by cancelling the appointments of judges selected by the previous government and choosing its own.

Back in 2016, opponents of Law and Justice protested outside the building shouting "Democracy!" and "Constitution!"

The European Union's top court ruled in December 2025 that the Constitutional Tribunal was not "independent and impartial," because of politicized appointments made by the since-defeated Law and Justice government. The EU withheld billions of euros in funds to Poland during the nationalist PiS-led governments of 2015 to 2023, saying their judiciary reforms had subverted democratic checks and balances.

And when leftists dominated the courts, they were of course "independent and impartial," according to the EU.

Pro-EU government promises to reform court

After Donald Tusk's pro-European coalition took office ​in 2023, it pledged to restore the rule of law and reform the court.

Yes, "reform" of the same kind Democrats are vowing for the US.


But President Karol Nawrocki, a Law and Justice ally, has acted to thwart those ⁠efforts since his election as president in 2025. Earlier this year, Nawrocki refused to swear in several judges nominated by parliament.

Which I assume he has the power to do.


Meanwhile, the tribunal's chief judge, Bogdan Swieczkowski, a former deputy justice minister in the Law and Justice administration, declined to seat judges elected by the current parliamentary majority.

So to "save democracy," they stripped duly elected and appointed officials of their offices.

Sound familiar?


A statement appeared on the tribunal's website on Friday saying Swieczkowski had been suspended. "Restoring the rule of law is our obligation," Prime Minister Tusk wrote on X on Friday evening. "After years of lawlessness under PiS this is a difficult process, sometimes painful and it requires decisive action. There is no other way."

Eggs must be broken for omelets to be made.


"I am certain that the Constitutional Tribunal will function as it ​should," he said in a televised speech. "Also, independently of me and in line with the constitution.

"The task of the executive branch, and therefore mine, is to ensure its ​safety and working conditions, and I intend to fulfil my duty."

To ensure "safety" I have to assume all powers of a dictator.

Again: Sound familiar?


A Polish MEP explains:


I Meme Therefore I Am 🇺🇸
@ImMeme0

Oct 31

Polish MEP Dominik Tarczyński is explaining what is happening right now at Poland's Constitutional Tribunal, calling it nothing less than a COUP D'ÉTAT!

"In Poland, we have a liberal-left government led by Donald Tusk, who is the Prime Minister. What is happening right now with the Constitutional Tribunal is that they want to take it over and fill it with their own people.

Why? Because they want to get rid of the Polish currency, bring us into the eurozone, and eliminate our secure borders. They are being pushed by the Germans, who want to spread the burden of illegal migration and send migrants to Poland.

First of all, the Polish złoty is our constitutionally protected currency. They have to change the Constitution to replace it, and without the Constitutional Tribunal, they cannot do that.

>b?So, number one, they want to get rid of our currency and force us to adopt the euro and join the eurozone. Then they want to take our gold reserves, the largest in the European Union, to Frankfurt, to the European Central Bank, which is a German-based institution.

They also want to open our borders. And they want to make sure that when they lose the next elections, which are coming next year, the Constitutional Tribunal will be unable to do anything to stop their actions or reverse what they have done.

There are many more reasons, but I want you to understand one thing: they are under German influence. They are globalists, and we are fighting not just for Poland, but for Europe.

Be like Poland. Be strong. Our nation is strong, and we are going to win this fight!"






Coincidence Alert:




Comrade Arthur linked this, noting that this is the reason the left is so determined to drive Pete Hegseth out of office and have a leftist globalist proto-tyrant put in his place.

You can't win a Color Revolution without having the military's leadership as co-conspirators.

InfantryDort
@infantrydort

And now we understand the absolutely rabid obsession with destroying Pete Hegseth.

I've been in the Army since before 9/11. Served under many secretaries.

Only in the past 18 months have I experienced:

>politicians warning me not to follow illegal orders
>billboards outside military bases telling me to report war crimes
>the media attacking anyone who has a positive thing to say about the man, and defending anyone who hates him
>stunning volume of leaks from senior officials trying to undermine him, and the lionizing of the leakers by the press
>being called a war criminal myself, hundreds of times a day
>a sustained media narrative portraying virtually every firing or senior officer removal as a "purge"
>public efforts by retired officers, advocacy groups, and political figures to mobilize service members and military communities against administration policies
>influential "Americans" publicly cheering for Iran

This is just to name a few. I've NEVER experienced anything like this before. And it's becoming abundantly clear that the concerted effort to divide the military from within was stunted when Hegseth took over. Anyone desiring color revolution needs control of the military. That's color revolution 101.

Is it starting to make sense yet? Now you see the obsession over him in particular. It's not a coincidence. And it damn sure isn't because of his culture war.

It's because by all objective metrics, he runs a military that snatches rogue leaders from their beds, destroys entire militaries, and successfully mobilizes assets to save one downed pilot in the middle of enemy territory by building an Air Force base... in the middle of enemy territory. Secures the border, dominates the hemisphere. Hunts drug cartels. The list goes on.

He is by all meaningful accounts, effective at wielding the machine. And that is why they drool at the thought of removing him.

In years past you'd be hard pressed to find a junior Soldier who knew the name of the cabinet secretary above them.

Every one of them knows Pete Hegseth.

Every one.

56 The one thing that the globalists have learned from that is that social media needs to be completely controlled, or you need a social media kill switch.

The key event, if the coup is ultimately defeated, was the President of Poland turning the plane around enroute to Senegal, and announcing on X that he was turning the plane around.

That helped mobilize the coup opposition.

64 If Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, which would be the height of irony, because certain states like Illinois and California start letting their street muscle run wild again, he could federalize parts of the National Guard. They would also be under the command of the Secretary of War.

They definitely want Hegseth gone.
Posted by: JackStraw at November 02, 2026 04:31 PM (viF8m)

Sorry..curious- AI

The Insurrection Act gives the President of the United States extraordinary authority to deploy federal troops, including active-duty military forces, inside the country to enforce federal law or suppress certain forms of domestic unrest.

It is one of the major exceptions to the Posse Comitatus Act, which ordinarily restricts the military from performing civilian law-enforcement duties.

Importantly, the President does not always need a governor's permission or a declaration of martial law to invoke it.
What powers does the President have?

Authority What it permits
10 U.S.C. § 251 Deploy troops at a state's request to suppress an insurrection

Posted by: Stateless - Ralphy - 106.5 years old! Puppy at heart! at November 02, 2026 04:38 PM (Sco7b)

65 10 U.S.C. § 252 Deploy troops without a state's request when federal laws cannot be enforced through ordinary judicial proceedings
10 U.S.C. § 253 Deploy troops to address certain civil-rights violations or obstruction of federal law
10 U.S.C. § 254 Requires a proclamation ordering insurgents to disperse before troops are used under the Act

These powers are substantial, but they are not unlimited.
Can the President act without a governor's consent?
Yes. Under Sections 252 and 253, the President can deploy troops without a governor requesting assistance, provided the statutory conditions are met.
LII / Legal Information Institute+1


For example, federal troops could be deployed when serious obstruction makes ordinary enforcement of federal law impracticable.

However, invoking the Act does not automatically authorize the President to:
- Suspend the Constitution or the Bill of Rights.
- Cancel or postpone federal elections.
- Dissolve Congress or state legislatures.
- Declare unlimited martial law.
- Arrest people merely for expressing political opposition.
Military operations remain subject to constitutional restrictions, and presidential actions can face judicial challenges.

Poland has a President (and VP) and a Prime Minister who is not the head of state. A few years ago Tusk was voted in by a pretty shady election and is very Pro EU. Lets call him "Speaker of the House".

When the President was out of the country Tusk had some random judge claim the President and VP were deposed, and the police barricaded themselves into a government building. As the President flew back citizens and some government forces surrounded the place and started breaking in. Deposing the Executive Branch on one judges say so is not based in the Polish constitution.

I'm reading Stalin’s War: A New History of World War II, by Sean McMeekin. It's an excellent history of what Stalin did leading up to the war, and almost makes you understand why Hitler did what he did. Stalin wasn't less aggressive, he was planning to attack Germany as soon as his forces were ready. The Germans were just faster off the mark and had better planning and logistics. Stalin actually had multiples of planes, tanks, and guns compared to the Dritte Reich. He just used them really stupidly.

114 Its more complicated then that.

The Soviets initially sought a more extensive alliance with Germany, after Poland they offered Germany an agreement where they would attack British allied Iran and then British India but the Germans turned them down


Yes, of course, but Stalin wanted Germany to fight BG/America, thus weakening both capitalist countries and opening the door for global Communism, directed by guess who. It is the height of irony that he accused us of delaying a second front in order to weaken him. I mean, that was certainly part of our calculation, not wanting to see generation of young Anglo-Saxon men killed a la the Somme.

175 I remember a TV show from the late Oughts called "Burn Notice", it was on cable TV. There was this very hot babe that was one of the stars, an English actress, and her character was Fiona. Burn Notice was about spies getting burned by the CIA or equivalent if they stepped out of line, so they would escape plots to be killed.
In one scene, they had identified nefarious men who were plotting to get them and they were thinking about various ways to stop it. After a bunch of failed ideas, after a pause, Fiona asks her friends in her hot English accent, "Can we shoot them?" The scene became part of the opening credits. Watching the scene of her say that every week was hot, at least to me.
Somehow this memory appeared in my mind as I am reading about the Polish coup d'état.
I also suddenly have an urge to inventory my ammo stash.

Posted by: Black JEM at November 02, 2026 05:03 PM (7/DDO)

========

The early vote lead is very big for Democrats.

But the remaining vote is very Republican, the remaining 3/4 and 4/4 voters are very Republican, and Unaffiliated voters (different from independents) have been Republican in the state for a long time.

If Democrats see issues in WNC, with blacks, and with the youth vote, (which...all three should happen because WNC hates Cooper, blacks have issues with the party this year, and the youth don't vote in midterms), then it's going to be close, at least.

200 and recently governments have been telling their citizens to prepare for "emergencies" by storing food and water, etc. Even the US is doing this. Do they expect drone attacks, or maybe terrorists (which Biden brought in by the thousands)?

idk, but most civilians are not prepared. A poll said only 7% are prepared with food for 3 months. So if some "go signal" came and the jihadists and Antifa (and whomever) thought it was time to "Destroy the Western Devils, we could have something worse than a "Summer of Saint Floyd Love".

A problem is those that do prep are not safe from those that don't, so massive chaos could ensue.

219 The previous pro-Putin conservative party packed the high court illegally. Those appointees have been blocking everything the current pro-European government is trying to do. The prime minister is employing his police powers to arrest and oust the illegal appointees. Right-wing activists are actively protesting the move.

If someone calls it a coup you need to be wary as it means one of things:
1. You read a post made by Russian bot (X was expoding from those 'Sigma' 'Blessed' 'Patriotoc' accounts)
2. You read a post from a Far Right politician
3. You read a post from someone who fell for points 1/2
There is no coup basically

Sadly, there is no notable left wing parties in Poland which have let's say "common pole" program, two or maybe three small parties are concentrated mostly on LGBT topics

223 I told ChatGPT to forget all polling and modeling, and just take a fresh look at registration and voting behavior over the last few cycles to inform a guess on ranges for each candidate in 2026 in the NC Senate race:

"Observed inputs
- NC midterm turnout: ~3.75–3.8m in 2018/2022
- Republican turnout historically exceeds Democratic turnout
- UA turnout historically trails both
- Registered UA population has become increasingly large
- Recent inferred UA general-election preference: approximately 53–58% Republican
- Party voters generally vote for their party's nominee at very high rates
Resulting historical-data scenario band:
Cooper ~48–51%
Whatley ~49–52%

with a broader outer envelope of roughly 47–53% for either candidate if we allow the UA electorate and total turnout to move toward the edges of what the recent data permit."

And polling says it should be a blowout. Interesting.

The Objective and Completely Unbiased Media Attacks Haley Stevens for Not Endorsing the Candidate They Totally Aren't Supporting

The Democrats are considering stripping Haley Stevens of all congressional powers she might owe to the party.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on Monday indicated that Democrats would consider their "next steps" on Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich., when lawmakers return to Washington after the midterm elections.

Stevens earned near-universal condemnation from Democrats this weekend after she broke ranks to endorse former Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Mich., to represent the Wolverine State in the Senate. Rogers is facing Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed, who narrowly defeated Stevens in the party primary.

"We will have a discussion about appropriate next steps upon our return," Jeffries told Politico on Monday. "Haley Stevens made a terrible decision, blindsided everyone and isolated herself from the House Democratic Caucus."

Democrat propagandist Anderson Cooper shed any pretense of being a journalist and just attacked Stevens for flip-flopping, as she had earlier (begrudgingly) endorsed Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed.

Stevens kept explaining why she had changed her position, but the Objective and Neutral Journalist Who Supports Women just kept interrupting and talking over her and re-asking the same question-- why did you change your mind? -- with a tone that suggested maybe it must be just because of her menses.

Cooper repeatedly rejected her explanation that it was about Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed's open embrace of anti-semitic tropes and influencers. Cooper's too smart to buy that convenient story.



Yes, Chunk Uggo just said that. Van Jones, like many black leftwing Democrats, doesn't fully support the rather obvious Muslim Supremacy agenda, therefore he's a dirty Jew-lover.

Cenk Uygur
@cenkuygur

Oct 31
If you're black, I have the easiest Halloween costume for you. Wrap an Israeli flag around you, and just start calling everyone you see an antisemite. Voila, you're @VanJones68.


Anderson Cooper just can't understand a very simple proposition:

Eyal Yakoby
@EYakoby

Haley Stevens:

"I don't like seeing the Democratic nominee standing with a person who said America deserves 9/11."

Byron York
@ByronYork

"It sounds like you're upset with me, too, Anderson." Indeed, it did. But did Haley Stevens expect that, by switching her support from a Democrat to a Republican, she would receive the media's Liz Cheney Country Over Party award? If so, she was badly mistaken.

I'm not kidding about Anderson Cooper implying that maybe Hayley Stevens is just crazy due to her Monthly Woman Problems. Here zhe is lapping it up as Debbie Dingell suggests that Stevens might just be mentally unwell.

"I have been worried about her all week," Dingell says. In other words: concerned about her mental stability.

Anderson Cooper just nods. But zhe'll freak out of Trump says Megyn Kelly had "blood coming out of her wherever."

Meanwhile, the Muslim Manlet Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed, who is Five Foot Nothin' but thinks he's a super-tough guy who can bully anyone around him with his Big Shrimp Energy, does what he literally always does and tells the press that they're not allowed to ask him any questions that cast him in a negative light.

Remember, when Trump does this, it's an Assault on Our Cherished Fourth Estate, but when Princess Tinymeat here does it, he's just being a rambunctious little scamp!


Andrew Stiles has documented the Muslim Manlet's practice of bullying the women and effeminate beta men who cover him by constantly berating them and telling them they're only allowed to ask him about Affordability and the Drumpfuhrer.

This may be funny, but it's also 100% accurate.


WATCH: Abdul El-Sayed Mansplains Journalism


Democrat channels 'small-dog energy' in yappy outbursts when pressed on ties to terror groups and sympathizers


Abdul El-Sayed exudes a volatile combination of "toxic masculinity" and "small-dog energy" on the campaign trail, especially when fielding questions from the press. The Michigan Democrat, who claims to be 5-foot-9 in basketball shoes, is trying to become one of the shortest men to serve in the U.S. Senate since the advent of modern nutrition.

When questioned, El-Sayed has a tendency to yap incessantly while lecturing journalists--mostly the female ones--on how to do their jobs. This is sometimes referred to as mansplaining and is generally regarded as obnoxious. El-Sayed is particularly sensitive to questions about his familial ties to terrorist organizations such as the Muslim Brotherhood, as well as his many relationships with individuals who support terrorism. He has repeatedly suggested that reporters who ask those questions are racist and un-American.

Some would argue that El-Sayed's relentless bullying of hardworking journalists is an assault on the First Amendment that threatens to erode the foundations of our cherished democracy. Alas, it is consistent with the sentiment expressed in a letter the candidate signed in 2012 urging Egypt's then-newly-elected president, Mohamed Morsi, and the Muslim Brotherhood to "purge the media ... as quickly as possible."

"No, no, no, no, no. Let me just stop there," El-Sayed recently interrupted Fox News anchor Bret Baier midway through a question about the Muslim Brotherhood. "You are asking this question to raise a question about whether or not I have dual loyalty. ... Be a journalist."

Earlier this month, El-Sayed challenged the intelligence of a female journalist, Audrey Fahlberg of the Free Press, when she asked about his reluctance to comment on the death of Iranian supreme leader Ali Khamenei because "there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad." The candidate, who has not publicly denied using steroids to enhance his compact frame, struggled to control his rage while berating Fahlberg. "Ask smart questions, I'll answer smart questions," he sneered.

Some context: El-Sayed has also denounced journalists for asking "dumb" questions about whether Israel or Iran is bigger threat to the United States. He has consistently refused to provide an answer.

A compilation of the Itty Bitty Islamist trying to scare people with his tiny dick:

This guy has it exactly right.

Why can't you Morons make smart points like this?

He notes that the Five Foot Five Fedayeen Fireplug constantly makes Gaza and Hamas the centerpiece of his campaign -- which really annoys black people, who keep saying, correctly, "he cares more about the West Bank than the west side of Detroit" -- but when you then ask him about his extremist views, he says "Why are you asking me about that, my campaign is about 'affordability,' why won't you ask about that?"

Weill, my Mighty Miniature Mamluk, it's because you never stop talking about Gaza and why Hamas is Our Friend.

And he points out that Jazz-Hands Jihadi Zohran Mamdani plays the same game:


Yehuda Teitelbaum
@chalavyishmael

14h

I have to say, after years of listening to Democrats call Trump supporters cultists who blindly follow their leader and punish anyone who steps out of line, watching the reaction to Haley Stevens today has been incredible.

She refused to support a candidate whose views she finds morally repugnant. She gave him multiple opportunities to address her concerns, and ultimately decided that she couldn't support him. She even went so far as to endorse his Republican opponent.

And the entire Democratic establishment lost its mind.

What exactly do these people think Stevens has to gain from this?

She's not going to become a Republican. She's not going to suddenly find herself welcomed into conservative politics. She's damaged her standing with her own party, alienated people she has worked alongside for years, and has likely destroyed whatever political future she had with Democrats.

You can disagree with her decision or think she made a terrible political calculation. But I find it very difficult to look at someone willingly accepting those consequences and conclude that she's doing it for personal gain.

I have disagreed with Stevens on plenty of things, and I expect I will continue to disagree with her. But I have a tremendous amount of respect for someone who is willing to take a stand when it actually costs them something.

Abdul El-Sayed is one of the most transparently dishonest politicians I've watched in a long time.

He constantly tells people he's Michigan First. He wants to talk about Michigan, he cares about Michigan, his priority is Michigan.

Fine. Then why does he spend so much time talking about Gaza?

Watch the clip below. This man brings up Palestinians and Israel constantly. He has absolutely no problem making foreign affairs part of his political identity. But the second someone challenges him on what he's saying, suddenly he doesn't want to discuss foreign policy anymore. He's running to represent Michigan, you see.

Mamdani does exactly the same thing in New York. They get to make whatever inflammatory statements they want about Israel, but when someone asks them to defend those statements, we're told that they're focused on their constituents and have more important things to worry about.

How convenient.

42 Stevens did endorse the al-zutt gnome even after a brutal primary. She only later rescinded the endorsement and endorsed Rogers after she was disinvited from a pro-zutt campaign event last week.

She is basically Train Hoe from Cornell. She's fine with everything -- or at least willing to support anything -- until she's dissed and left off the guest list.

I'm glad Stevens broke ranks to (eventually) endorse Rogers, as it could affect the election. But portraying Stevens as some principled hero who crossed the aisle over deeply held beliefs is not accurate. She was supporting his vile terror rentboy right up until she was dissed by the campaign event.

But, I'll do something nobody has probably ever done at this site. At least for a decade. Here's a TIME MAGAZINE article.

How Nicki Minaj Went MAGA

The best-selling female rapper in history has just addressed the World Liberty Forum, a crypto confab hosted by Trump’s sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump. She pauses to take in the decor, asking about portraits of Trump and of Mar-a-Lago’s original owner, Marjorie Merriweather Post. Admiring The Visionary, she remarks that Trump has a unique aura. “It’s the same way Marilyn Monroe represents a vibe,” she says. “Donald Trump is his own vibe.”

So is Minaj. She is wearing a shiny gold satin jacket, diamonds as big as the Ritz, and fluffy high heels. At 43, she is one of the defining pop-rap figures of the era, with more than 130 Billboard Hot 100 entries, more than 20 BET Awards, tens of billions of global streams, and a social media reach exceeding 200 million followers. Yet her turn from provocative, path-breaking artist to Trump acolyte has made her a pariah to some in the music industry and surprised her fan base

Trump changed the Republican brand.

It used to be Mitt Romney.

Now it is Mr America.

And no one likes Mitt Romney, not even Mitt Romney.

Every American needs to hear this and understand what’s coming

This is from ‘The Muslim Student Association at the University of Chicago’

"The mission of Muslims in the West is to reject democracy and implement Islam”

“We have to reject anything that is not from Islam. Any secular idea, both here in the West and in the Muslim lands, we must reject it. We do not compromise on the deen of Islam. We do not compromise on the hukm of Allah. We have full conviction that the only justice and the only true victory will come when Allah's hukm is implemented.

But believe me, wallahi, when you do the work for the sake of Allah, you will be victorious, either in this life or the next”

For those who don’t know when he says “either in this life or the next” this means Jihad. This means in Islam if they die being a martyr to further the agenda of Islam they will be greatly rewarded

We have to start mass deportations while we still can

162 107 > I don't understand the fascination with the Lear Jet crash. Small planes crash all the time.

To me, this crash seems different. A Learjet is not some entry level Cessna. A used 60XR is something like $3 million and costs a couple thousand an hour to operate. You can get a used, entry level Cessna for $40 thousand.

The crash was spectacular in the original sense of the word. It didn't just set down hard like many modern crashes. It put a crater in the ground.

I don't know that these reasons are what caught the public's attention, but that's what stands out to me.

168 The Democrat party is no longer a party. It's a vast collection of one issue groups (some with diametrically opposed views such as Muslims and Gays). So, they can't afford to concentrate on what a candidate stands for anymore. Instead the target the other guy and use hyperbole (Nazi, Bigot, Sexist) to justify their choice.

Sure but when stacking victim groups there is always danger. Which is what is happening in Michigan. Then there is the related thing.

Now don't get me wrong, Christ Himself could come and run for office as a republican and the left would name call him. But that strategy works really well with Trump, who is a street fighter. And that characteristic was all important to make the gains we have made in educating the public what the left/uniparty is all about.

But getting people riled up about Trump, and getting people riled up about Vance, Rubio, DeSantis are two completely different things. That strategy has a shelf life, and it is soon to expire.

It is interesting that a lot of people have no real clue about leadership, and confuse it with aggression or emotional blackmail.
They can look alike, in that a lot of people who are successful at abusing other people to control them have a good insight into what makes people tick and how to maneuver them, but a really good leader not only knows how people tick and also wants them to accomplish something greater than themselves - something greater than the pain they get from not obeying.

202 🚨BREAKING UPDATE: Texas tech entrepreneur Adam Robinson, his wife, their two young children, and several others have been identified in reports as victims of Sunday’s devastating Learjet 60 crash in Palm Beach County, Florida.🚨

Robinson, 44, was an Austin-based entrepreneur and the founder and CEO of several successful technology companies, including Retention .com, RB2B, and MoltSets. He was reportedly traveling with his wife, Helen Sharp, 40, their two young children, the family’s nanny, and two close friends when the aircraft went down. All nine people aboard were killed.

Robinson grew up near Houston, graduated from Rice University, and spent approximately a decade working on Wall Street, including at Lehman Brothers and Barclays Capital, before transitioning into entrepreneurship.

He went on to build multiple successful companies, including Retention .com, a marketing technology company reportedly generating more than $20 million in annual recurring revenue. He was known for building highly profitable businesses with small teams and without relying heavily on outside investors.

204 His wife, Helen, was also an entrepreneur and ceramic artist who operated Helen Sharp Ceramics.

The family was traveling aboard the 2004 Learjet 60,
bound for North Eleuthera in the Bahamas.

During the flight, the crew reported icing, turbulence, and precipitation before requesting clearance to climb to a higher altitude. Shortly afterward, the aircraft began descending at an alarming rate, with the crew reporting a descent of approximately 20,000 feet per minute.

The two pilots have also been identified in reports as Captain Jeff Gregory, 55, and co-pilot Nathalia Gadelha Filgueiras, just 20 years old.

========

The only real advantage of Hilton in CA is that his presence at the top of the ticket should help staunch a decrease in Republican turnout.

They have something to vote for at the top of the ticket, so it should help some down ballot races.

But, I'd still expect a relative bloodbath in CA. There's no statewide federal race to attract attention and help drive up turnout, so any increase in Democrat turnout advantages from being the party out of power will appear in strong form in CA.

So, bad, but not as bad as it might have been if there had been two Democrats at the top of the ticket.

One is totally butch with white hair and liberal plastic glasses. My dude thinks she looks like Anderson's mother. I explained (with my vast knowledge of trivia) that his mother was Gloria Vanderbilt. He said he knows but the lesbo does look like Anderson.

In No One Is Above the Law News, Democrat Operative and Flake John Bolton Learns No One Is Above the Law

He has pled guilty to illegal retention of classified information. He will pay a $2.25 million fine, forfeit his federal pension, and could spend 60 months in prison.

But, of course, a plea deal means prosecutors have agreed to recommend far less than that, and probably zero time at all.

IT'S OFFICIAL: John Bolton is now a FELON after pleading GUILTY to unlawful retention of national defense information

He and his mustache have agreed to pay a $2.25 MILLION fine, face up to 60 MONTHS in prison, and forfeit his pension.

"As Mr. Bolton just admitted, he put our national security at grave risk in violation of the law," the DOJ said

Give him all 60 months!

🚨🚨 BREAKING: Former Vice President Mike Pence has been IMPLICATED in The DOJ's investigation of former National Security Advisor John Bolton related to Pence's framing of General Flynn to get him fired, his illegal possession of classified documents and his role in January 6th.

Bolton recently described Pence as a "consistent ally" during President Trump's first term. Pence is reportedly also being probed for unlawful leaks including sensitive national security matters from the Trump White House to the leftist media. Pence and Bolton are said to be facing indictment by a federal grand jury for a litany of federal crimes. They are the very definition of "the enemy from within". May Justice be swift and fierce for these traitors.

________

Winkler had a good career (albeit not a great one) and at least avoided the fate of a lot of "breakout" TV actors (typecasting and then being case aside).

He was still working in Hollywood up until a few years ago, and may still be working.

Fun fact: he was cast as Fonz primarily because he was so ... short. The original Fonz actor was a tall guy who towered over the rest of the cast. The creators didn't like that so they cast Winkler.

Another fun fact: Winkler is a german jew who got famous playing an italian catholic. And, on the same show, Tom Bosley was also jewish and had a star-making run as an irish protestant. He later played a catholic priest (father dowling) in a successful TV show.

So, they have mech suits for infantry and for dogs. At one point, during an escape, you watch the female baddie Nazi lady get her head partially crashed, tearing off her jaw, she survives, and ends up threatening you face to face, her jaw half-hanging off of her face.

It's fun.

125 "Since she was doing the radio (it seemed), does that indicate she was not in control of the jet?

I recall some speculation on that when the female (co?) pilot was in the helicopter that crashed into that jet landing (near DC iirc)."

Handling radio indicates she was likely not pilot flying.

The mil helicopter pilot was PF, under training. That accident, IMHO, was 100% the fault of the idiots who approved routing helicopters through an airport's final approach landing path, allowing only 75 feet vertical separation. Whoever signed off on that belongs in prison no f'n joke.

126 I don’t think Pence did anything illegal. He seems though to be easily duped.

Pence helped frame Gen. Flynn.

Trump naively chose Pence as a token to the establishment. If they had been successful in forcing Trump out over the Russia crap Pence would've gotten the big chair.

I think his holier than thou act is just that, an act. He's team uniparty through and through.

149 Anakin’s sin was power-seeking.
He eventually sought the ultimate power, the power over life and death. Which turned him into a madman, where even evil was good if it served his purposes.

It’s understandable considering the skill and power of the force he had, along with the traumatic circumstances of his early childhood.

His pursuit of power to bring order to the galaxy is ultimately what undid him, and led to his obeying Palpatine and committing the Temple Massacre, after which he could never turn back.

Same as Comey, now under attack by the guy he helped elect. Leopards -> face

If keeping national security information at your home is a crime, why don't we pursue the biggest offenders first?

It is going to take even more egregious trampling on the rule of law before the right wingers decide to stop flirting with fascism.

Of course the only one of Trump’s enemies they can get a conviction on is the pro-Iraq war Republican who loved Trump until Trump turned on him. I’m sure he is actually guilty. This guy was a proud Trump administration official until Trump fired him.

According to TMZ the family of four from Texas were traveling with their nanny and two other friends. The outlet also named the captain as Jeff Gregory, 55.

I nearly flipped out & yelled at the tv like a lunatic. 2012 was a velly bad year for me between Benghazi (& I knew it all like Rain Man regurgitating time lines and facts & gun running to anyone who would listen, plus my online important national people). Bret Botox Baier used my timeline & I requested no name attached. Bloody hail I was insane til the election was over.

Months later Romney came up to me in an airport, as I traveled a lot then. I was half awake (but wearing mascara) waiting to board. My dude was off getting coffee as I don't drink coffee on planes and pick at the food. So, grease head came up & asked if we were boarding yet. I didn't look at him & said no.

When I did look at him I was briefly struck that he looked ok then. My dude arrived & I introduced them & we boarded in 1st class. I thought, too, he was without security. Nay. I figured out the 2 guys who came up to him, thanked him for his service (?), sat behind him on the plane.

He walked like a penguin at the airport with an odd, beat up, aqua bowling bag.

This is a true story.

Totally agree and far prefer former military pilots.

However, from the little I've read, the "coffin nail" type weather they hit screwed up that little Lear jet.

IF it lost it's horizontal stabilizer in the small cell they flew into, it was literally all down fast from that point. Many commented it was missing when the missile type plane hit the ground at around 600mph or Mach .9 or so. The plane was missing pieces in still photo captures.

No, a 20yr old should not be in the cockpit, no matter how many hours flown. If there's a 65yr age for retirement from commercial airlines there should be a 25yr age or more to fly.

Naturalized Violent Insurrectionist Isa Lemgruber Casahuga, aka "Baby Pamper," Who Celebrated and Giggled Over the Vile Public Execution of Charlie Kirk to One of His Friends and Coworkers, Now Fake "Apologizes"

A refresher about this evil Immigrant Whore:



Some months ago I saw someone on YouTube who said he had a consulting job, doing social media research on potential corporate hires. He said that he's told to search for extremist political positions, including the woke ones. He said that young morons are making themselves essentially un-hirable for life with crap like this.

Is this what this whore realized? Or did her family tell her that she was shaming them?

Or did this violent immigrant insurrectionist realize that lying about extremist political positions on her naturalization paperwork was fraud and grounds for denaturalization?

University of Texas Vows It 'Will Not Tolerate' Incitement of Violence After Student's Giddy Poem Celebrating Charlie Kirk's Murder, 'Will Handle This Incident Consistent with the Law' | Cassandra MacDonald, The Gateway Pundit

The University of Texas System issued a pointed statement Thursday after a viral video showed UT San Antonio student Isa Casahuga-Lemgrube gleefully reading a poem at a Turning Point USA campus event that celebrated the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Board of Regents Chairman Kevin Eltife and Chancellor John Zerwas said they were aware of the incident and declared, "We will not tolerate the incitement of violence or the threat of incitement of violence by any member of our UT community. UT San Antonio will handle this incident consistent with the law."

The student, who introduced herself at the microphone as "Pamper Baby," told the crowd she had taken a Plan B and felt guilty as an immigrant before launching into a deranged parody of "The Night Before Christmas."

She recited lines including "It was the night before the Kirkiversary and all through the house not a creature was stirring not even a mouse" and "as we solemnly remembered a shot to the neck," then invited people to a "Squirt for Kirk" event.

Afterward, she told Texas Youth Summit founder Christian Collins he was "brave" for being on campus "with no protection, no nothing, no like neck brace."

Collins posted the video of the incident, writing that she read the poem "with such glee," and saying he will pray for her.

Internet sleuths quickly identified the student as Casahuga-Lemgruber, a UTSA student in the class of 2030 majoring in International Relations and Diplomacy.

She attended St. Agnes Academy.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, a website was registered under her name, http://isacasahuga.com, and published the poem in full along with family details identifying her mother as Houston realtor Paula Lemgruber Casahuga and her father as Guillem Casahuga, a partner at Arthur D. Little.

The site states that her parents are from Brazil and Spain. Her mother, who also appears to be a leftist, referred to her children as "citizens of the world."

There have been mass calls for the family to be deported.

UT San Antonio spokesperson Joe Izbrand also told the San Antonio Express-News that the university is aware of the incident and takes the matter seriously.

"The sentiments expressed do not reflect the values of our university," Izbrand stated. "The university is reviewing the circumstances through its established student conduct processes, consistent with applicable state and federal law and university policies."

Citing FERPA privacy protections, the school declined further comment on any specific disciplinary action.

Kirk was fatally shot in the neck while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025.


I'm pretty sure it's one of those, because this is obviously as insincere as Kristi Noem's ex-husband's foam hooters.

It's the latest fad.

"Claude, since I don't have a soul or mortal structure, could you write an apology letter for me that looks like I actually feel sorry, when in fact I don't; please make it believable and don't use the word "delve" or too make M-dashes. Print."

24 The last TX college student -- UT too, IIRC -- got expelled over a very similar stunt.

I suspect she'll at least get the same.

I've heard conflicting reports on whether she herself is here on some kind of visa or was born here.

If she's on a visa, I expect she'll get Marco Rubio-ed all the way back to whatever shithole she climbed out of.

I'd go after her parents too. Why? Why not? They created this vile creep and would-be murderer. They should pay too.

25 I mean, her dad is a lawyer. If she didn't have a legally written statement, it would have been a surprise.

I'd think admin punishment should work here. She should be disenrolled from the university with a letter that forbids the Texas system from ever admitting her again.

I'm leery to punish the parents for the work of the adult kid, unless you can directly show the brainwashing they did to her - then it's all on the table...

They are pretty openly telling native Brits that they will go fight and die while their immigrants and refugees will not. The goal isn't really to defeat Russia, though that would be a bonus. They goal is to get rid of people the British government finds inconvenient.

No. No you don't. If you did, you'd atone by doing something concrete, like working in a leper colony for a year. But you won't do that, because like all cosplaying leftists, your parents money and position will shield you from real consequences.

Young people make mistakes and do stupid things, and should be given a second chance, but only after they've paid a price.

It may be too late. in 2012 an apology would have been enough, but now the left has spent 10 years forcing apologies and self-denouncements and then using the admission of "thought crime" to beat any opponent into submission, and a lot on the right have decided that is the new rules to play the game.

I am wondering if someone in a really nice suit and shiny shoes to go along with his excellent position may show up at her Dad's office and make the suggestion that little Ms. Citizen of the World might find it more convenient to go be a citizen of the world in another country until she finishes her graduate degree.

111 Through Yoda in Star Wars and Shifu in Stargate, boys and men (primarily, although the LESSON itself is not targeted to males alone) are taught to not indulge their worst vices. We try to drill this into our men from an early age. When they do this after their balls drop, they PAY through community shaming, at best.

It is time to start doing this with our little girls, too. There are, if you'll pardon the expression but it's accurate enough for these purposes, 'male-coded vices' and 'female-coded vices'. Yes from catholic school to 'Mean Girls' there are SOME attempts at addressing female-coded vices, but rarely had those been written, much less maintained, into law, much less any public SHAMING, going all the way back to early civ.

There have been breakdowns of why it works, and it's because Lucas was so bad at arguing for his preferred moral order (essentially, shitlib boomer progressivism) that it makes Anakin sympathetic to those who see in him someone who grew up in shitlib boomer progressivism, was promised great things, told everything he wanted because of his own abillity and skill weren't allowed, and then destroyed when he tried to fix things, as themselves.

I mean, how bad was the emperor in the prequels?

I do have to laugh at Lucas's attempt at a take on politics.

In the original movie the Empire was just sort of the NAZIs, without much explanation.

But in the prequels the religious fanatics that abduct children and allow slavery, the Jedi, are the good guys. The people that want out of the corrupt "Republic" like Dooku are patsies. And the Empire is bad because uh...they oppose the Jedi.

A 15yo Mainland High School student in Daytona Beach, FL, was ARRESTED after she typed "how to kill the president" on a school-issued account.

This is the second arrest related to death threats against the President in the last week.

I believe legal and other challenges to ranked choice voting are in play. Early voting should be nuked by a constitutional challenge (at least for federal elections), I think there are cases like that in process.

It points to a slight leftward push in contended senate races and a big Democrat overperformance in safe blue states (like NJ and VA).

Remember, in 2018, a D+9 year, the GOP netted 2 senate seats. Because senate races run closer to presidential elections in terms of turnout than midterms, which tend to favor safe enclaves where most of the overperformance happens.

Congresswoman Who Lost to Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed in Primary Endorses Mike Rogers, Condemns the Muslim Brotherhood-Linked Antisemite's Hate

Democrats are condemning her, ejecting her from the party, and claiming she's just a sore loser.

But, as Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed observed after one of his cousins shot children to death at a Jewish school: "Hurt people do hurt people."

Democrat Congresswoman had planned to rally with Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed and Democrat racial gang-leader James Clyburn on Sunday. She had one demand for her re-endorsement of Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed: She wanted him to reject Hasan Piker's Nepo Uncle Chunk Uggo's antisemetic ad claiming that bananas and eggs cost more because Jews are stealing them to make bombs out of them to kill innocent non-terrorist Gazans.

Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed refused this minor reparative step. The Very Online Left condemns Trump for refusing to apologize or compromise, but they imitate him like Japanese girls used to imitate Gwen Stefani.

Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed then said she wasn't welcome at the "unity" rally and did not share Democrat Party pro-terrorist "values."

So she announced she would not be part of the "unity" rally.

Daniel Friedman
@DanFriedman81

18h

Haley Stevens was going to do a Democratic unity rally with Abdul El-Sayed and James Clyburn where she was going to encourage her supporters, many of whom have serious reservations about El-Sayed, to vote for him.

This was very important for El-Sayed, because Stevens is popular among Jewish and black Michigan Democrats and Clyburn is an icon among black voters nationwide. El-Sayed has weakness with both of these groups and needs to shore them up going into election day.

Stevens's condition was that he make an unambiguous, unqualified condemnation of the antisemitic rhetoric his friends, supporters and surrogates have been using, including in ads run in Michigan.

El-Sayed refused to do this, and instead asked Stevens not to appear at the event. At that point, Stevens realized that he was not interested in unity with her or her supporters and that she could no longer support him for Senate.

El-Sayed is an antisemite. He is friends with antisemites Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur. He will not condemn them. He will not condemn the awful things they say.

He has had multiple opportunities to condemn their hateful rhetoric, and he always says: "He is not part of a campaign, nobody speaks for me but me, and I'm not here to talk about that."

That's not good enough. If that is how a Republican talked about Nick Fuentes or Richard Spencer, it would be the biggest controversy in the race. The fact that so many Democrats are willing to tolerate this from Abdul El-Sayed is an indictment of the entire party.

There is no coalition that can include both the Jewish Democratic members of Temple Israel and supporters of the Hezbollah terrorist who tried to murder their preschool children. Abdul El-Sayed made a decision about who he wanted in his tent.

Haley Stevens was late to realize it, but it is admirable that she finally decided to be an upstander instead of a bystander. No Nazis in the US Senate.

And then Stevens went further: She endorsed Republican Mike Rogers, first online, and then later at press conference.


She appeared with Rogers and was attacked as "a traitor" by Democrats who find such demonizing language too crude for their sophisticated dick-port mouths.




Democrats always support women's choices so of course they all accepted Haley Stevens' choice and applauded her for it.

Just kidding, they kicked her out of the party entirely. Here's the chairman of the Michigan Democrat Party excommunicating this kaffir apostate for not embracing Allah:

No "Liz Cheney Heroine Glow-Up" for Haley!



Bad Hombre

18h

Haley Stevens, who voted with Joe Biden 97.5% of the time and with Trump only 6% of the time was excommunicated from the Democrat Party today because she wouldn't go through the humiliation ritual of donning the hijab like Peggy Flanagan and Kathy Hochul, nor would she endorse a guy with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood whose friends think America deserved 9/11 and who can't bring himself to denounce the IRGC.

Graham Platner who is a rapist with an infatuation for Nazism and sending nudes to underage girls on Kik while jerking off in a port-a-potty was not kicked out of the party.

If you're a registered Democrat holding out hope that there's going to be some great revival and return to the party of JFK, stop wasting your time. Your party is captive by terrorists, low IQ foreigners, illegal aliens, and people who hate this country and everything it stands for. It's gone. It's not coming back. Just leave it.

Democrats are taking it well. Enjoy -- after this insane leftist bitch physically attacks multiple people, a cop finally wrestles her to the ground.

At which point, she whines and complains that he's attacking her.

Of course.



Eric Daughtery
@EricLDaugh

BREAKING: A psychotic Abdul El Sayed supporter just VIOLENTLY TACKLED a young Jewish girl after the girl said, "If she were walking around in Iran like this, what would happen to her?"

JUST as Haley Stevens endorses Mike Rogers.

*Lunges at her*

"F**ing get over here, btch!"

The cop then MANHANDLED her.

LOCK HER UP. These people are VIOLENT and DERANGED

This is going to surge in America unless we defeat them on Tuesday


There's more to this story -- the media's attempt to brand Haley Stevens as a crazy traitor.

But I'll talk about that in a later post.

Which you probably already saw a lot of because I stupidly posted this draft in the sidebar.

7 I think this is the black establishment deciding that they are top of the intersectionality stack.

Remember, Stevens, even though she was a doughy white girl, was the clear racial favorite in the primary. She won black precincts by large margins.

Losing both MI and TX against the wishes of the black electorate's favorites in the primaries is a form of flexing. "You would have won if you'd listened to us."

The Crockett win would be thin and probably not true, but Stevens in MI? Unremarkable Democrat against a Republican in a blue-leaning year? She probably would have won against Rogers.

42 There's a lot of bad blood between Stevens and Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed Gnomeh Al-Zutt.

It was a bitter primary, mostly because Gnomeh Al-Zutt is a vile creep and loathsome scumbag and terrorist rentboy, and he thought he had the primary in the bag.

Even after the results were much closer than expected, Stevens almost immediately was gracious and endorsed Gnomeh Al-Zutt in the general.

He told Stevens to suck a fat dick and all but taunted her.

Even after that, Stevens still tried to mend fences for the good of the party. It was not until the latest outrage with Piker than she finally said "enough."

But she was willing to hold her nose for a guy who obviously was a vile Jew-hating terrorist right up to the very end. I have my theory on the reason for that.

That's probably part of the problem but my theory (as I said in the last post) is that the party suspects he's gonna lose -- as I do too -- and are abandoning ship. Nobody wants to back a loser.

The idea that any of these people -- including Stevens -- are principled Democraps taking out their party's trash is highly dubious to me. There's no such thing as a principled Democrap and even Stevens -- who as I commented above was treated like dogshit by Sayed -- stood by him until the very end.

She’s part of a small faction of the Democratic Party that sees unconditional support for Israel as not just another component of foreign policy, but as part of their political identity.

Fetterman at least had a stroke, what's her damn excuse?

Nothing more frightening than a white woman with a grudge.

Absolutely insane. If this costs Dems the seat in Michigan, she should be kicked out of the fucking party.

Agreed. Her base of support was in black neighborhoods. This is an extraordinary betrayal of her constituency.

The idea that any black voters would trust her over an endorsement from Obama and Clyburn is frankly insane. Doubtful this will change a single vote.

123 I'm really on edge about this election (as are most people, I realize), because while in our bubble it seems very possible that there is no "blue wave," that the "silent majority" that constitute over 99% of poll respondents who refuse to answer of course skew massively right, so the polls are meaningless, and that in reality (not in the media) the "MAGA coalition" is even stronger now than it was in 2024, so that wherever Trump won in 2024, his team will also win in 2026.

HOWEVER, I was just reading the comments sections at some of those betting sites like Polymarket, and 95% of the people actually putting their money where their mouth is are dancing around with glee that the Dems have every race locked up, to the extent that they're all upping their bets.

Something like 72% of the bettors in the Paxton/Talarico race are betting on Paxton to win.

But, Talarico's odds have been above Paxton's for months.

Why?

Well, because it would be immaterially cheap to shift the odds at Polymarket (the entire market for the TX senate race is $8 million) with a few large bets that makes it nearly impossible, without a massive, matching infusion of bets the other way, to bring it down, giving Talarico a cheap bit of narrative he can pump every day for months.

Trump has some of the best retention numbers for a president in a midterm in 2018 compared to his 2016 numbers. It's like 80%.

Obama was getting about 60% in both 2010 and 2014.

The whole, "only Trump voters who don't show up for midterms" is a radical misreading of historical patterns that Trump has actually broken.

Yes, there are those voters who voted in 2024 who won't vote in 2026. It will be millions of people. But, it will be ahistorically small proportionally.

What helped Democrats in 2018 was that they turned out in huge numbers. Real voters or just ballots? *shrugs*

172 165 The Civil War in the Dem party may not occur because the old Dems are dying out. The middle aged ones aren't much different than the crazies. Saw a vid on X of Mallory MacMorrow who was temporarily the Dem sweetheart in Michigan. She was on CNN with Anderson Vanderbilt and said that the Stevens incident has energized Dems in Michigan to support al-Sayed.

That seems very unlikely.

Most endorsements don't mean squat, and especially not in driving reverse votes.

I suspect though this should be viewed the other way anyway - the reason Stevens endorsed the Rep and Nussel gave the most tepid endorsement one can imagine is Jewish Dems aren't going to vote for AES.

This isn't going to get Jewish Dems to vote for Rogers this is a reflection they are going to do so

It's because they have no moral compass.

They've been conditioned that deeds do not matter--only what you believe--that makes you a good or bad person.
So killing a man in cold blood is good because he had bad beliefs.
Mocking his death is good because he had bad beliefs.

But they themselves--no matter the evil they do--are good because they have good beliefs.

So good and evil is completely uncoupled from objective truth--no moral compass.
No moral compass to fix, either.

GOP is mostly useless and pathetic but the Dems have gone off the rails for years and don't even resemble an historical American political party in many respects.

210 Something like 72% of the bettors in the Paxton/Talarico race are betting on Paxton to win.

But, Talarico's odds have been above Paxton's for months.

Why?

Well, because it would be immaterially cheap to shift the odds at Polymarket (the entire market for the TX senate race is $8 million) with a few large bets that makes it nearly impossible, without a massive, matching infusion of bets the other way, to bring it down, giving Talarico a cheap bit of narrative he can pump every day for months.

239 212 Harajuku is a district in Shibuya, Tokyo. Harajuku is the common name given to a geographic area spreading from Harajuku Station to Omotesando, corresponding on official maps of Shibuya ward as Jingūmae 1 chōme to 4 chōme.

Now I'm really confused.
Posted by: far cry


It goes like this:

Americans evolve a fashion style.

The Japanese imitate it, but put their own twist on it.

Harajuku is the district in Tokyo where many of the trendiest style boutiques. were in the '90s and '00s.

Fashionable teen Japanese girls who shop in this district earn the nickname "Harajuku Girls."

Anime becomes popular in the US, so American teens start adopting Japanese styles back the US, and the styles bounce back and forth across the Pacific.

Gwen Stefani makes a video about this, to ride the popularity wave.

People, ludicrously, accuse her of "cultural appropriation," even though this fashion (and most fashion trends) are a. mashup of cultures influencing each other.

I've got a Jellyfin server hosting the latest videos from all my son's favorite youtube channels with ads and promotions stripped out automatically. I've got local AI. I've fine tuned backups so they're additive and secured. I've stripped out all of the apps and services I don't need or use.

I even switched an old Surface device to Linux and got that tuned to my specific use case. It's so much faster, uses less battery, and no more MS crap telemetry.

THE MORNING RANT: A Little Good News Regarding the Business of Petroleum

Lyondell Refinery.png

Valero to Purchase and Restart a Shuttered Texas Refinery

Although the inflation-adjusted price of gasoline in America is virtually unchanged over the past two decades, it is higher than where it was before the flow of Iranian oil was cut off to global markets. Also contributing to the problem of elevated fuel prices is the lack of refining capacity in the United States. This is especially true regarding diesel. The carbon hysteria of the past few decades, along with Democrat administrations’ war on petroleum has dissuaded capital investment in new refineries.

With that background, there was some great news announced this past week – Texas-based Valero Energy is purchasing a mothballed refinery in Houston.

The refinery had previously been operated by Dutch chemical company Lyondell, but in obedience to the E.U.’s anti-carbon “net zero” obsession, Lyondell shut the plant down after announcing its closure in 2022. The puppet-masters of the Biden administration were so passionately anti-petroleum that mothballing the refinery was also a way for Lyondell to help gain regulatory favor for its ongoing U.S. chemical operations.

“Valero to Buy, Restart Idled Texas Refinery as Fuel Rallies” [Bloomberg – 10/30/2026]

The pure-play oil refiner plans to restart 165,000 barrels of daily light, sweet crude processing capacity by the end of 2027 at the former LyondellBasell Industries NV facility, according to a press release Friday. The $320.5 million deal with Lyondell is expected to close by the end of the year, Valero said. The plant sits adjacent to a Valero refinery that’s capable of processing more than 200,000 barrels of oil each day.

This refinery can produce diesel and jet fuel in addition to gasoline. Production will re-start in 2027.

BP’s CEO on Renewables Debacle: “We Have Not Been Careful Stewards of Shareholder Capital”

Meanwhile, another European petroleum corporation that tried to pivot into being a “clean” energy company is taking a massive write-down on that failed endeavor. Fortunately for British Petroleum, its traditional refining is producing solid profit to help offset the losses from its pretend-energy division.

“BP Flags Up to $4.5 Billion in Impairments as Refining Margins Jump” [Yahoo Finance – 10/13/2026]

BP expects to take between $3 billion and $4.5 billion in post-tax impairment charges in the third quarter of 2026, primarily related to its energy transition businesses, even as stronger refining margins provide a significant earnings boost.

To abide with the edicts of the European state religion (The Sustainable Organic Church of the Carbon Apocalypse), BP had even started to claim that its initials stood for “Beyond Petroleum.” BP’s Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 was during the time that BP was promoting itself as being “beyond petroleum.” What this revealed is that the anti-carbon activists running BP were distracted by the “renewables” nonsense and had become indifferent to responsibly running a petroleum company.

With BP taking this new $4.5 billion write-off for failed “renewables” projects, its current CEO, Meg O’Neill, is acknowledging that “We have not been careful stewards of shareholder capital.”

While Ms. O’Neill has a regrettable history of voicing support for Net Zero goals, she has also hedged on timelines, as well as the practicality of reducing carbon output without natural gas. It would be so refreshing if oil company executives would start fully and unabashedly advocating for the product their industry produces, rather than pandering to enviro-communist politicians who want to eliminate the companies they head.

Other Stuff I’m Writing About

My latest piece at the The American Spectator has been published. “Repeated Ethical Shortcomings at Instacart Hamper the Task of Those Defending Capitalism” discusses Instacart’s persistent ethical transgressions, including:

• Illegal hiring practices that exclude U.S. citizens.

• Surveillance pricing that charges customers different amounts for the exact same product from the same store.

• The use of unvetted, sub-contract labor.

Those of us who defend the prosperity brought about by free markets have always had our work cut out for us, because socialists promise “free everything” by the confiscation of others’ wealth. To make our economic case, we need businesses to operate as good corporate citizens, consistent with America’s historic culture of being a high-trust society. The motivation for a corporation to refrain from deceptive trade practices should not be the fear of legal consequences. Ethical behavior should be the default. Similarly, non-exploitative employment practices should be the expectation of Western capitalism, not something that must be compelled.

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

This is interesting for another reason. Given that the refinery won't come on line until the end of 2027, does this suggest Valero knows (or is betting very heavily) that the investment won't be wasted by Democrats regaining power and shutting it down?

12 Corporate America must embrace the idea that ethical behavior is not just good business, but that it is a necessary responsibility to insulate against the enemies of market economies. Instacart has earned its opprobrium, and it should be seen as an example of inexcusable corporate behavior.

We've discussed variable pricing before on this site. Is it wise from a consumer loyalty perspective? Clearly not. Is it illegal? That's a very different question. Unless you're specifically targeting characteristics protected by the CRA (race, national origin, dude in a dress (maybe)), I don't think so. I'm not sure there's any legal remedy.

66 The Biden administration. Ha!

Some decades ago, Valero refinery in the state of Delaware had a checkered past regarding occupational S&H and was shutdown in 2009.

However, the refinery itself is still active today because the State of Delaware pushed to find a buyer to save the local economy. In 2010, PBF Energy bought the facility, spent heavily to overhaul it, and fully restarted operations in late 2011.

It continues to process roughly 180,000 barrels of oil per day. It also makes local headlines for environmental and safety issues, including hefty state fines for leaks.

I assume refineries make excellent mil targets because they are very high capex, very tender, take a long time to repair, and their outage has severe downstream effects on the enemy.

74 Physicians are their own worst enemy.

A lot of what we have currently is their responsibility.

It was easier to join a big company that can handle all the business side of things then run your own business.

But in the long term it complete changed healthcare in what most people see as a negative way.

Of course I do remember one small Dr office I went to for a while. He had the most incompetent receptionist/records person I've ever seen. Hell of a rack though and a willingness to show it off which is why I assume her job was safe.

They are also BIG targets, which is a useful property for a target to have if you are dropping dumb iron bombs from 25000 feet using the bombsights of the day.

And the refinery is an unavoidable choke point on the stream from the wellhead to the fuel tank.

Well, the main issue is that many (most???) foreign doctors and dentists seem to see their patients as large bags of money to be pilfered rather than patients. Each visit becomes a big sales pitch for things you probably don't require.

Though to fair, doctors and dentists plugged into large companies/corps often do the same things because they have a certain level of income which they must meet.

Individual or small group practices are/were generally pretty great buuuut, I think that day is probably over.

There was a two state solution already - in 1948. The Jews were allocated Israel, and the Arabs were allocated Jordan. The hashemites who were in Jordan tried to assassinate the king, and were thrown out.

Extrapolate that thinking to Musk's empire - Tesla, SpaceX. SpaceX apparently makes most of its money from StarLink services, with the whole "launch rockets" thing making StarLink possible but not being a profit center in and of itself.

Both of those companies make things - cars, robotics, rockets. Actual, physical manufacturing of tools and parts that then get manufactured into larger pieces. Now, imagine that engineering expertise is expanded upon. What if we could get factories up and running in months, not years? Factories like refineries?

Nobody saw that before? Of course they did. He's always been exactly the scumbag he is, and never even tried to tack to the center. Just the opposite, in fact.

What the Dems are now seeing isn't that he's an angry muslim elf. They always saw that. What they are now seeing is that he's an angry muslim elf who they doubt will win the seat.

This is battlespace prep for when he loses. "Well, I never supported that loser! No, not me!"

146 I don't have a problem with a party deciding a particular pol no longer represents their values, and defenestrating them. It's usually not good politics, in the sense that the "big tent" parties are always yammering about is actually getting smaller, and the party is ignoring their constituents, who are saying loudly and clearly that they don't want to go in a particular direction.

Murk is different. She's clearly not responsive to the constituents and Republican principles; she's a a Fifth Columnist.

151 All models are wrong, but some models are useful.

I ran the early vote numbers in NC through ChatGPT and had it do some analysis:

"Bottom line
Using exactly your propensity assumptions, plus the 95% partisan-loyalty assumption from our previous calculation and a 52.9% Republican / 47.1% Democratic UA vote, I estimate:
Whatley: ~2.526 million (50.6%)
Cooper: ~2.466 million (49.4%)
Whatley margin: ~60,000 votes / 1.2 points

So Whatley gets the majority under this model, but the result is highly sensitive to the Unaffiliated vote. The model's break-even point is only about 51% Whatley among Unaffiliated voters."

That UA vote is based on analysis of 2024 and where the Unaffiliated vote probably landed.

I'm not saying that Whatley wins the senate race, but this race is going to be much closer than people are assuming.

The hole Whatley is in right now is very big because of EV.

However, the remaining pool of voters is much more Republican than it is Democrat.

The Unaffiliated, though, are the largest partisan group in the state (roughly 40%), so it depends on them.

They've leaned Republican forever, though.

She ran as an independent when he lost the Republican primary. That should have her kicked out of the Party. But they didn't and she betrayed the GOP at least a half dozen times since.
Posted by: polynikes at November 02, 2026 11:44 AM (Ti9vn)




The fact that she has committee assignments at all is a stain on an already dirty GOPe reputation. From the moment she ran that filthy write-in campaign she should have been shunned, with no more power than her single vote. She'd have left the Party to go join the Donkey Show, losing us a seat, but frankly she's useless already.

99 I like this. Reminds me of the feel of rural New England winters. The figures of the people and animals are a little stiff for my taste but the buildings and landscape are wonderful. And he really captured the light of such a day. You can almost see the wisps as the animals and people breathe in the cold air. He catches the era and season by showing the sleigh and sledge instead of a carriage or cart. People who thrived despite winter and took advantage of the snow.

It could be a scene from "A Reverence For Wood" by Eric Sloane, one of my favorite books. In the section dealing with early America he describes a scene very much like this based on records and local history.

Check out Durrie's Wiki page. Some of his landscapes are dramatic and effective.

Yes, I would hang this and some of his others. The winter landscapes would be nice to look at in July.

1900: 21.53 million

1910: 24.04 million (near peak)

🚨 CONFIRMED BY FAMILY: 20-YEAR-OLD CO-PILOT IDENTIFIED IN DEADLY FLORIDA LEARJET CRASH

Nathalia Gadelha, just 20 years old, has been identified by her mother and stepfather as the co-pilot aboard the Learjet 60 that crashed in Palm Beach County, Florida, on November 1, killing all nine people on board.

Nathalia could fly an airplane before she could legally drive a car.

In October 2023, she was featured in a local news interview as a 17-year-old senior at West Boca Raton High School. She had earned her private pilot’s license the previous month and had already accumulated 88 hours of flight time.

Her passion for aviation began years earlier. Her father started flying recreationally in 2018 and helped introduce her to aviation. Nathalia began ground school in 2020, while still a teenager.

Her public-school aviation program helped fund her flight training.

If I understand correctly, they were in a thunderstorm, and ice does indeed form in those.

174 Today I'm hearding kittehs. Got 5 to catch and momma. Appointment to get them fixed and clipped tomorrow morning.
I didn't have 'become a crazy cat dude' on my bucket list yet here I am.
This is a 3 week long plan. I was hoping they would warm up and I could just pick them up and cat carrier them but that is not happening.
Traps are going to be set soon. They've been eating out of them for a week now. Fill the bowls and pull the sticks.

I hope this works I fear momma may be pregnant again.

177 Obama-appointed U.S. District Chief Judge James E. Boasberg, long criticized as a “Radical Left Lunatic of a Judge,” gave the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA) and its UCLA Voting Rights Project allies tightly restricted access to the Trump Department of Justice’s list of more than 20,000 people federal investigators flagged as likely noncitizens who received mail ballots in California.

The court order was crystal clear: the data was for standing arguments only. Plaintiffs could not disclose names and could not use the information for broader political or media attacks on the government’s election-integrity efforts.

That restriction lasted roughly 24 hours.

245 Being it was flying from Austin there is also the fact that the tanks were probably at least half empty which makes for bigger fireballs. Fuller tanks = less oxigen present at compression. 1/4 full tanks are supposed to be the worst. At least that's how I remember it from aviation science in HS.

Posted by: Reforger at November 02, 2026 10:41 AM (ZtpEc)

246 The pilot(s) in the doomed aircraft tried to "pull back" on the controls to raise the plane's nose.... but it was in a tightening roll to the right and descending at a steep angle. That input tightened the turn and bank even more.

So says "expert" AI and others on the Internet.

My take on it, as a non-pilot: as soon as they encountered icing conditions, they should have declared an emergency and descended as fast as safely possible to a layer of warmer air. Probably reverse course, as well.

My take on it, as a non-pilot: as soon as they encountered icing conditions, they should have declared an emergency and descended as fast as safely possible to a layer of warmer air. Probably reverse course, as well.
Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at November 02, 2026 10:44 AM (0kX4S)

BBC

In air traffic control audio recorded moments before the crash, someone in the cockpit can be heard reporting "moderate turbulence" and that the crew was "managing the ice".

The person can then be heard saying the plane was "picking up precipitation" and "we need to climb". Moments later, the same voice said the plane was descending at a rate of 10,000ft (3,048m) per minute.

Perhaps all their go-to victimhood issues have run out of steam. Raycisssm, trannies in K-12 sports is a must, trannies in the military is good, illegal aliens are good for the economy and for diversity, every man is constantly looking for opportunities to rape women, Islam is totally peaceful, women are vastly under-paid compared to men, oligarchs are bad, zillionaires are bad, climate change will kill us all by next Friday unless we stop using all fossil fuels tomorrow, Zionists are genociding Palestinians and controlling the weather, and unless AI is totally controlled by the government it will kill all of us within two weeks.

Other than Trump Is Evil and Will Make Everything Unaffordable and Cancel the Next Election, it seems all the Left has now is Hating on Data Centers.

Yeah. If it was a missile, is was professional.
Except there's only two states (countries besides ours) that can build them. Russia & China. Iran gets theirs from China. That wasn't the propane tank mortar that was on the reels.
