Wednesday Night ONT - May 27, 2026 [TRex]
Good evening Horde. The time has come for mid-week shenanigans. The bar is open.
Welcome to the Wednesday night ONT which means another edition of random overnight fun and games. Pull up a chair and sit a spell. Good will offerings of amusing puns are happily accepted and are eligible for comment of the week consideration. Pants are optional. Be nice to your fellow commenters and AoS contributors. This is a Tucker, Candace, Megyn and Bill Kristol free zone. Please. Will you be smarter after reading this ONT? Will you be better looking? Will you be more fun at parties? Will you see better at night? Will you be wealthier? Will you win at Connect Four? If you skip the content, you'll never know![Top photo: All hail the Fotomat. Drop your rolls of film off and pick up your photos a few days later. Magic!]
Police in Louisiana were called to help round up a mystery emu spotted wandering the city streets. The Duson Police Department said on social media that officers responded Wednesday to help the Lafayette Animal Shelter & Care Center wrangle a loose emu. "Anyone missing an Emu? ID# 118962 found around the 300 block of B Robin in Duson," the shelter wrote on Facebook. "We don't know the sex. It's not housebroken. Someone please call us 337-291-5644 or come by to reclaim -- because our team and the dogs are very confused."
China's Tiangong Space Station is currently occupied by a group of artificial embryos, marking a major step in the quest to understand the ins and outs of reproduction in space. And while none of the embryo-like structures will ever develop into an actual person, the experiment should at least provide us with new insights into the impact of microgravity on early human development.
Previous research has shown that human, pig, and mouse sperm become disoriented in microgravity and are therefore less likely to be able to navigate the reproductive tract. A separate study found that jellyfish who spend their youth - or polyp stage - in space tend to experience vertigo when brought back to Earth, struggling to swim in a coherent manner. On the other hand, mouse sperm that was sent to the ISS has been successfully used to rear healthy pups on Earth, suggesting that exposure to cosmic radiation may not cause harmful levels of DNA damage. Mouse embryos were also seen to develop normally onboard the ISS for a period of four days, eventually becoming blastocysts - collections of cells that later develop into the fetus and placenta.I expect much related frivolity and observational humor in the comments. Do not disappoint me.
The ONT Fotomat staff will see all photos from rolls of film you drop off for development. Please keep this in mind when you ask the ONT Fotomat to develop your personal photos. Written correspondence can be sent to moronhobbies at protonmail dot com. Are you lurking ??

It’s grizzly mating season in Yellowstone National Park, and a pair of bears — a male called Quill and a female called Snow — didn’t let a crowd of onlookers disrupt their courtship.
The amorous grizzly scene near Yellowstone Lake caused a bear jam for at least a quarter mile in each direction for days this past week.

Establishing permanent human colonies off Earth means gravity different from 1g, and reproducing in it. That is likely going to be a big problem. You can assume there's some tolerance there. We just don't how big that tolerance is.
Ever biological process here has 1g has constant background given. And the evidence is that things just start going awry in something different from than 1g.
The Moon is about 1/6g. Mars is about 0.38g, call it 1/3.

Mexican Mulligan
1 cup of brown rice (before cooking). I use brown rice because I have teh Diabeetus. White okay if you don't.
Good slug of soy sauce (hey, this is a scientific recipe)
Good slug of Worcestershire sauce
1 cup of frozen pepper strips
1.5 pounds hamburger, drained
1 packet Williams chili seasoning (you can use another brand if you wish, and I will explain why you are wrong...heh)
1 can red beans
1 can diced tomatoes
Cook rice. When it's just about done, add the soy sauce, chili seasoning, and Wash-Your-Sister sauce. Stir well.
Cook hamburger separately, OR used canned cooked ground beef (with fat removed) OR canned corned beef. In this case I had a can of cooked ground beef in the emergency stockpile that needed to be used up.
Add meat, beans, and tomatoes.
Simmer for 15-20 minutes at least.
I used some torn-up pieces of whole wheat bread from the last batch I made in lieu of crackers.
Pretty tasty. Way more than one person can eat at a sitting. The rest will go into freezer containers.

whig quoted Bruen thusly: "When the Second Amendment’s plain text covers an individual’s conduct, the Constitution presumptively protects that conduct. The government must then justify its regulation by demonstrating that it is consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation."
Herein lies, perhaps, what I think is the quintessential perversion and usurpation by the courts. That last sentence. If the "Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation" violates the 2A, it's OK? In fact it is the *basis* for ruling on the 2A? To use a legal academic expression, WTFF?
So here's what the 2A *actually* says, I guess:
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed, excepting insofar as such infringement is consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation.
How am I wrong here? 2A is not a firm or clear limit on government, it's a suggestion? If courts and legislatures have infringed it "historically", well, they can do that. (cont.)

NASA would not even attempt this. The Chicoms are just doing this because of the international "optics". They would have no qualms at all about using the real thing. Or actually impregnating a woman and putting in her in space to see what happens if they could get away with it.

The patron saint of weapons and firearms is Saint Sebastian. He was a Roman soldier and Christian martyr (died around 288 AD) who was sentenced to be executed by being shot with arrows. Over time, his patronage extended to firearms and anyone who works with or depends on weapons (hunters, law enforcement, military personnel, gunsmiths, etc.).
He is usually depicted tied to a tree or post, pierced with many arrows.

This seems to capture perfectly the court's legislative power, which is limited only by previous laws or rulings, regardless of how aberrant or baseless they were. NOT by the constitution itself.
As to all the other considerations, thanks for the commenters talking about them, I am aware of them. They can be summed up under "bad faith, lawless performance of duties" by the courts. Which has reached histrionic almost comical proportions, with the leaks in the abortion case and the gaming/delays of the VRA case.
Anyway.

In Brussels (nowhere else!), queuing to pay at the supermarket;
sees this:
- A man in the queue; a little boy behind him plays with the baby cart and hits him repeatedly on the back of his heels - it hurts; the man tells the kid: "OK boy, be careful; it hurts."
- The boy takes no heed and goes on, harder.
— The man asks the mother: "Could you tell your boy to stop?" She replies: "Oh, I raise him to be a free person; I don't want to frustrate him."
- Another man behind the mother carefully opens the shampoo bottle he was carrying and pours it on her head, saying: "Oh yes, my mom raised me like this too."
- Then another lady, behind the shampoo man, hands him a small banknote, saying: "Take this — it's my share for the shampoo."

Yes, it was seriously meta. Penn actually beat a photographer, but photographers who did the same thing often suffered for their actions.

You should keep your eye on Harmeet Dhillon and the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ. Doesn't get talked about much with everything else going on but she is actively pursuing 2A cases including the recently filed case against the state of Colorado and their unlawful magazine ban which in effect was an AR-15 ban.
Roughly 80% of the Civil Rights team resigned or was fired after Trump won but they are getting their mojo on now. And 2A rights are in her bullseye.

Yes. As far as archival quality goes, the main difference was that Kodachrome (Process K-14) was dyed during processing, rather than having the dyes put in the separate layers at the factory, as with Ektachrome/Fujichrome/Agfachrome/Process E-6 slide film (and Process C-41 color negative film). This meant that you could use Extreme Badass dyes rather than being limited to the pussboi dyes that would work in a so-called "integral tripack".
Process K-14 was a Rube Goldberg procedure of diffusing a colored dye into the film, then diffusing it back out, carefully rexposing the film to light during processing through colored filters built in to the film stack, and about a million other steps.
You needed trained chemists on staff to run a K-14 line. In practice, only Kodak itself and a few very large independent processors could afford to process it.
E-6 and C-41 could be processed by local labs, or even at home if you were a careful worker.

Too meaty for an ONT but whig's cite from the Bruen decision contained, as I said above, what seemed a clear statement of the judicial derailment and usurpation. Not just the 2A, but across the board, and not just recently.
If wildly unconstitutional laws were tolerated in the past, then they over-ride the constitution's clear language today. That's actually just part of the problem.
Constitution was designed and intended to be amended as needed. In some ways it has been. But in wide critical areas it's simply ignored, or "interpreted" out of common sense existence, when the populace clearly would be opposed to amending it. The 2A gives no cover whatsoever to this horseshit, so it might be the purest example.

It's been amply demonstrated to all of us over the last decade that we have a huge problem in our legal system, largely our judiciary. They routinely ignore black letter law, overstep their authority and ignore precedent. And why not, there is no downside to going yolo. Neither Roberts nor Congress has done squat to stop them and in some cases like FISA just keeps shoveling them money.
That's the next big problem we have on the to do list.

Well it is a currency par excellence. US Dollars aren’t as desirable by foreigners or foreign governments. Recall that when Obie paid off the Iranian mullahs, they wanted Swiss Francs and pallets of gold bullion. Stable. Not dollars. They take up a lot of room now, since $100 is the largest note, and barely buys a box of smokes.
Sometimes you’ll take a slight discount if you want to convert into local currency, but recognized gold coins are universal money everywhere. Very convenient for spooks paying off informants, and paying in dollars or other currencies might result in very awkward questions. Just guessing, mostly. But I doubt I’m mistaken, because I’m not.

Calif LOWERED the speed limit on some freeway in January.... now the limit switches from 65 to 70 all the time.
Fun Part? by Calif law if the speed limit is 65, Trucks with trailers have a 55 speed limit, but when it is 70, they can drive 70.
Also, by lowering the speed limit, people are on the road more time... thus more congestion... about 7% more which is noticeably.

Oh, right. No, the IDF tries/usually succeeds in being so precise it's considered a demerit if a high-value target hit takes out anyone else at all. Poor Lebanon. "Palestinians", then Iran, have ruined the place, and it's doubtful there'll be any real improvement in our lifetime.

At least AmeriGas has stopped using foreign call centers for customer service. A couple of years ago, I could not get it through their thick heads that my tank was down to 6% and we had a hard freeze coming. I eventually went to the local yard and taped a note on the door telling them we needed propane. 30 minutes later a guy from there called and said they were on their way.

Reuters further reported that the intercepted drones had been launched from Iran, marking another escalation in tensions as Washington moves to counter perceived threats to regional maritime traffic and its military presence.
Just prior to this confirmation, CNN described mystery explosions along Iran's coast:
Three explosions were heard to the east of Bandar Abbas, a strategic Iranian port city and naval base near the Strait of Hormuz, Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency reported in the early hours of Thursday.
The blasts were reported at around 1:30 a.m. local time and caused the air defense systems of Bandar Abbas to be briefly activated, according to Fars, a media outlet with links to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

But they used American film! They had captured it from a crashed satellite or spy plane or somesuch. They couldn’t make film as thin as we could, or something like that.
If I remember correctly they took the shots, developed the film on the satellite itself, and then slow scanned the images via radio to the ground.
The earliest US spy satellites did a similar Rube Goldberg kind of thing, the film lacks being ejected by parachute and snatched up by airplanes. It was a big deal once they stopped using film. A lot of times, whatever they were trying to get intelligence on, the information was hopelessly stale or outdated by the time it had been retrieved, developed, and pored over by the spooks.

The car in the image is a green convertible from the late 1960s to early 1970s, featuring a sleek, low-profile body, chrome bumpers, and a rear design typical of European sports cars of that era. The styling cues — such as the tail lights, rear fender shape, and overall proportions — suggest it could be a model similar to an Alfa Romeo Spider or another small European roadster from the same period.
Key identifying features:
Two-door convertible body style
Chrome bumper with rubber guards
Distinctive rear tail light design
Wire-style or simple steel wheels

Gabbard plans to release findings from a string of sensitive investigations in weekly installments.
These revelations will include declassifications covering the Havana Syndrome, the origins of COVID-19, the alleged weaponization of the federal government under recent Democrat administrations, and the 2020 presidential election.

In French west Africa it was always "behind every minister is a retired French civil servant". Ditto for Oman, replace French with British (same goes for Jordan, or used to).
Great place to visit. Very different vibe than rest of the region. Literally the first thing a cab driver will tell an American visitor, without prompting - "we are different, we're not like the Arab world". Amazing Indian Ocean coastline with topography seemingly created just for great ocean front resorts.

They can lick my ass. When I moved here a few years ago we had them fill the two 100 lb propane tanks that are here that runs the stove, because there is no gas line in the street. A few months ago we ran out of propane and we called them. They said nah bro, you don't use enough. I said you filled it last time, and one of these tanks are yours because you exchanged it. nah bro, keep the tank, fuck off.

What's almost amusing though is the weird combo of 1) no real leaks or info from our side about details 2) endless mostly incorrect leaks from various sources 3) instantaneous and sometimes amusing Iranian denials of all the leaked details (most of which cause panic among savvier sorts on our side).
There was a background briefing, finally, a few days ago, which was mildly concerning if taken at face value, which I don't. But the combo above has created a cycle of panic/Iranian repudiation/Trump returning to truculent trash talk that (presumably) calms the panicans. Kind of funny actually. Cannot recall a furrin' policy situation quite like it.

Clothing details had to be perfect. American (and British?) buttons were sewn on with an “X” pattern for example. The European, in parallel. The French would smoke a cigarette down to nothing, and a lot of Euros held their cigarettes differently than Americans, in the first two fingers. Stuff like that would get you arrested.

Then he said with a snarl

Home tanks are sized in volume (gallons), so.it's easy to see what's going on. My 300 gallon tank only gets filled to 240 gallons.
The RV tanks are rated in weight, so the 80 % rule in pounds can only be defined at a particular temp, so they actually get filled to 4.6 gallons, which may or may not be 16#, depending on the temperature.

Yes, this is absolutely correct.
But the fact is, the point here, a 20 pound propane tank has this safety margin already factored in. Do you get it now?
They weren’t stupid when they designed these. There is no reason to fill a 20 pound propane tank with only 15 pounds, or any other fraction, other than to rip off the customer. Which is what they do.

In one close-quarters battle, the two sides were exchanging insults along with bullets grenades and bayonet thrusts. Typical exchange was "Roosevelt eats s**t!" to which the reply would be "Tojo eats s**t!". One time an American soldier mixed it up with "Tojo eats corned beef!" to which came the reply "Eleanor eats powdered eggs!". WTF? Clearly one of those Japanese had English skills.

Israel was my favorite by far, but time stood still in Oman. It could just as easily been 1023 as 2023. Another place wr never spent a dime on food. Strangers either paid for it in restaurants, or invited us into their homes before we set foot in a restaurant, or tbe owners would not take our money...or quit bringing food out.

Which is why I take *my* tank to my local propane dealer and have them fill it. It doesn't matter whether it has a bit of propane left in it, the tube under the valve extends down into the tank to the 80% level. When liquid comes out of the relief valve, it's as full as it's supposed to be. Then I pay for the exact amount of propane they just metered out. Those exchange tanks at the hardware or big box store (Blue Rhino, etc) is where you're getting taken. Note that they never actually tell you how much propane you're getting.
Note the the valve and associated tube is tank size specific. Basically the tube under the valve is longer for larger tanks.

I can get just short of 13 days running 24/7, on a catalytic heater set on low, provided it’s a full tank of 20 pounds. This is excellent fuel “mileage”, and I don’t need to run it 24/7 unless it gets truly cold. So it extends out to almost a month.
When they only fill it to 75% of their rated safe capacity, it just fucks up my fuel planning. There’s no reason for it, other than they are fuckheads.

I personally am a big fan of "hot" ceasefires. Most of these have been in the MidEast (surprise!). In the No. 1 is the ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel. Naturally Hezb didn't follow the requirements from the get-go, so naturally the Israelis immediately responded, and continued to respond to Hezb's mostly clumsy attempts in south Lebanon. As in Gaza, Hezb has interwoven their military assets with civilian infrastructure, so some villages now look like Gaza, plus the main town.
Anyway it's been "hot" all the way. Don't have inside story of course but there has been US dipshi**ery along the way. A request to not bring down buildings (this is about Dahiyeh, the southern Beirut suburb, "Hezbollahland". For "PR" reasons. Stupid. Anyway, there've been some targeted hits there in any case.
We haven't attempted to seriously restrain Israeli action and won't. They're not going to live with being attacked daily by these idiots. One more reason Tehran must change management.

Checked another box on my iconic films list tonight. After years of seeing the sunglasses memes, I read that They Live was free for streaming on the tooyubes, so that's what we did. After starting another movie that was too trashy to finish. Like Stargate the other night, They Live was… all that I expected and less. Better than the trashy movie, anyway.

Probably the former? Back when you described his dogmatic insistence on "using what he had" instead of doing something the right way, that already sounded off. We all have our little irrational quirks, but when an ordinary tendency swerves into an immovable fixation, I think that's a tell.
I'm sorry. I can't imagine the frustration, not being able to get through.

**Yes.** A 2025 Concerned Women for America report found ~41% of Netflix’s G-rated and TV-Y/TV-Y7 kids’ shows include LGBT characters, themes, or messaging.
Examples:
- *Strawberry Shortcake: Berry in the Big City* (trans character Banoffee, nonbinary Raisin Cane)
- *The Magic School Bus Rides Again* (same-sex moms, trans-coded chameleon)
- *Dead End: Paranormal Park* (trans lead)
- *The Baby-Sitters Club* (trans boy storyline)
- *Ridley Jones* (nonbinary character)
Netflix also has an official “LGBTQ+ Stories for Families” section.

Nice bike. Very easy to work on. The main thing is to get the gas out of it if that wasn't done. It has a carburetor, so its not as bad as if it had fuel injection.

If there's gas in the tank, it'll stay there a while yet. And the carb will need to be "gone-through" anyway, as it hasn't been ridden since... wow, guess it's been at least 10 years, maybe 12?

I also cannot tell you folks enough about how much everyone in the rest of TX hates liberal freaks from Austin. Hell, they just hate people from Austin in general, even the mid-road types. And Talarico is very-VERY Austin Freak-ish. It oozes out of him. This, by itself = a 10-15 point victory by Paxton. Once the carpet bombing adds showing him, in his own words/voice, speaking about his f-d up "Christian Tranny, Gay, Abortion" doctrine - it might end up being a 20 Point victory. I hope Democrats burn 100M on this guy. It. Will. Not. Work.

Not really. The tank will smell realllly bad, and the carb is fubar, but I've dealt with worse. As long as the carb isn't rotted it can be brought back easy. I just brought a 1951 panhead back to life that sat for 15 years. If it was fuel injection you would be sooo screwed, but the carb would be easy. I would imagine it still has the stock CV carb, and they aren't too bad. Might have a clogged accelerator pump nozzle and jets, but no biggie. When you're ready we can conquer it.

1977, we (wife, 6 year old, 8 year old, me) were backpacking in the Desolation Wilderness above Tahoe in August when a big snowstorm came through. It was a real.adventure getting out from 15 miles from the closest road. The Forest Service pulled out an entire Boy Scout troop. 2 guys who were day hiking and not prepared died.
In August.

I'm calling shenanigans that this is even Islamic. Looks like tribal Bronze Age scapegoating to me, except with a water buffalo.
Islam has a completely different ritual, where they chuck stones at some pillar representing Satan.
There's sacrifice of cattle but those are not to represent unclean things they hate. It's to represent the taking of life necessary to sustain the people. (Like kosher butchery possibly, a Jewish 'ron might help here)
tl;dr a lot of subcontinental "Islam" is a thin veneer over tribal practices usually awful and inbred.

FBI Arrests CIA Official With $40 Million in Gold Bars
May 27, 2026 at 5:23 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard
New York Times: “A senior C.I.A. official was arrested last week after investigators found hundreds of gold bars worth over $40 million stashed in his Virginia residence, a small fortune that he apparently brought home from work, according to court papers.”
“The official, David Rush, is being held in jail while he awaits a detention hearing in the coming days on charges of stealing public money by filling out fraudulent time sheets. The charging documents filed in Alexandria, Va., still leave a lot unanswered about his recent conduct.”

The DFL is profoundly shaken and devastated by the horrific shooting today at the Canterbury Park Expo Center. This senseless act of violence occurred during a sacred prayer service — a time meant for peace, reflection, and community — leaving one person fatally wounded. Our hearts are with the victim, their family, and the entire community traumatized by this tragedy.
We stand in absolute solidarity with Minnesota’s Muslim community during this dark hour. This attack is part of a deeply alarming national rise in threats and violence targeting mosques and other religious institutions. We stand in solidarity against this violence and remain committed to ensuring the safety of all Minnesotans.

Nominating a creep like Talarico is EXACTLY what the Dums do IF they trust their cheat machine. It also allows them to put forth the worst possible policies imaginable. I'm not sure they can cheat that much in Texas.

My stoner buddy back in high school got REALLY pissed off when I explained Troy versus Avoirdupois weights. He already knew this, apparently, through hard experience.
He was “fronted” a pound of weed to sell from his dealer. But when he sold ounces - he didn’t use 28 grams per ounce, he used 31 grams (Troy) to an ounce.
He had a scale but was using the wrong standard. Oops. This starts to add up after a while. Ha!

HOLY FAFO!! 🔥

You can tell CNN is devastated 🤣
"Our sources tell us that this investigation is focused on a 2022 deposition that Carroll gave where she said that she had not received any outside funding."
"Now, her lawyers later told the judge that she had in fact received funding for legal fees and expenses from billionaire Reid Hoffman."
"The judge overseeing this case ultimately said there were no issues with her credibility and blocked Trump lawyers from asking about this at trial."

Yep, the current big barge is named the Pegasus, and is what transports the SLS to the Cape. They've done this since the Apollo days, to the Shuttle, and to now.
The Saturn V transporting was a complicated thing. The SI-C (first stage) was built in Michoud. Now, the S-II and S-IVBs were made in California. The S-IVB (third stage) could be transported by air with that giant Supper Guppy. But not the S-II. That had to go the long way around down through the Panama Canal and back up the Gulf Coast. They had some special Navy vessel which did that.
Those huge stages were way too big for land transport across the country.

What total bullshit. And just a reminder, as if anyone doesn't already know; all of the legal harassment of Paxton in Texas did not come from the Left or from Democrats (although they certainly enjoyed the spectacle) - all of the attacks against him have come from the Bush Family Machine and the GOP-e in Texas. And Cornyn was a card carrying member of that bunch.

TEXAS SENATE RACE: Ken Paxton won 252 counties out of 254 with Cornyn only winning Travis County (Austin) and tiny Kenedy County (winning just 6 out of 8 votes). Cornyn and the Senate Republicans spent more money on this campaign than any other Senate campaign in history and lost by double digits. Imagine what the GOP could have done with that money in the 12 House toss-up seats. Embarrassing hubris on display in Texas - shame on you Cornyn, shame on you Thune.
9:01 AM · May 27, 2026
Politico (2022): Biden, in fact, also sees Cornyn as critical; the senator’s staff is in touch with the White House on guns and Biden recently described the Texan as a “rational Republican.”
“People are going to say what they’re going to say,” Cornyn said. “But I’m happy to be part of the coalition of the rational.”

The Washington Post Style section asks the question:

After reading through 1,221 words of TDS infused remarks, the Post finally gets to the point:
Per Swimming Pool Steve, the blue color President Trump picked is "going to very likely be a more sharp and accurate reflection versus the original gray color... What you’re going to see is a higher contrast to the light of the sky and clouds.”

The old court case of US v Miller is where Scalia dredged up the firearms in common use language for arming militia in Heller, and that is now established as the historical test used for Scotus in 2A analysis.
Given semi automatic rifles have existed since the beginning of the 20th century, the recent attempts at banning semi automatic rifles doesn't meet the historical test for states to be allowed to ban them. Even the NFA act of 1934 and the GCA of 1968 did not do so.
That is where I would take my aim at. Demonstrating bans on semi automatic rifles and firearms are NOT historically based.

The implication was “Childless women (or homosexuals) should not be in charge of nations” and he knew he had to accept that thesis. And he didn’t like that idea too much.
Being a Leftist is a lot like not thinking at all. They get really fucking irate about it. Thinking is hard, you guys!! Stop It!

Politics has replaced their religion. The Party is their church. They operate on the basis of faith, not where specific policy decisions will benefit the common good.
A century ago, these personality types were knitting stockings for the poor, or spearheading soup kitchens. The most zealous were Prohibitionists.
But now they fill the hole where God should be with trans kids and importing cartel gangs, because it feel right and good.

Because the district courts have to use the case facts of the actual law, then use the specific formula in Bruen (2022), "We reiterate that the standard for applying the Second Amendment is as follows: When the Second Amendment’s plain text covers an individual’s conduct, the Constitution presumptively protects that conduct. The government must then justify its regulation by demonstrating that it is consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation."

In short, they get away with it because they're in circuits that are dominated by left-leaning judges. So far, every challenge has failed at the circuit level so there is no circuit split to force (to whatever extent they can be forced) SCOTUS to tackle the issue head-on.
Posted by: Oddbob at May 27, 2026 10:00 PM (vTZFs)
That takes district courts doing fact finding, then courts of appeal reviewing it, then Scotus review if any. Takes years to work out in a lot of cases where you have jurisdictions and courts with an animosity toward a fundamental right. The lower courts figure they can't catch us all, the appellate courts gussy up the district court opinions in bloviation, and then Scotus sits on its ass for years. They did that with affirmative action too for far too long.

Scotus ignores that if it wants to on conflicts. Rule 10 is more an advisory guide to appellants than a hard fast rule on cert. It is more because you probably have about 4 justices that are supporters of the 2a--Gorsuch, Alito, Thomas, and Kavanaugh. Two that are wobbly, ACB and Roberts, and three that are hostile--Kagan, Action Jackson, and Sotomayor. It takes four votes to grant cert but you don't want to grant cert if you think the weaker justices will sign on to the hostiles. So you wait, sometimes years, for the best fact pattern to force the weak justices to vote your way.

Gay Weirdo James Talarico: All of Those "Cringey" Things I Said In the Past Few Years Are Either Completely True or Completely Out of Context
Via Twitchy, the Daily Wire reports that this Totally Real Authentic Bible-Believing Christian attends a church whose library contains gay groomer books.
More from the Daily Wire:
The Texas church where Democrat James Talarico has delivered his radical sermons is pushing radical gender ideology on children, featuring books filled with sexually explicit content and transgender ideology. Talarico, the Democrat nominee for the crucial Senate election in November, attends St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church in Austin. There, children have access to a library stocked with "banned books" that promote ideas rejected by most Christians, including books that contain descriptions of anal rape, incest, and oral sex, according to a Daily Wire review of its offerings. Books found in the St. Andrew's catalog include the book "Gender Queer," which includes illustrations of oral sex and masturbation, and the book "All Boys Aren't Blue," which discusses anal rape and incest. "This Book Is Gay," has a chapter on the "ins and outs of gay sex," while the book "Becoming Nicole" tells the story of a gender-confused teen boy who identifies as girl with the support of his family. In "The Courage to Be Queer," the author claims that "God is queer." Other books in the church catalog include "This Book is Gay," "Trans Kids, Our Kids: Stories and Resources from the Frontlines of the Movement for Transgender Youth," "Called OUT: The Voices and Gifts of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered Presbyterians," "The Courage to Be Queer," and "Becoming Nicole: The Transformation of an American Family." Talarico, looking to flip a Senate seat in a state President Donald Trump won by 14 points in 2024, has faced criticism over comments he made on transgender ideology. It will likely be a central theme in the campaign against him -- in his first speech as the official Republican nominee on Tuesday night, Republican Ken Paxton referred to Talarico as both "Six-Gender Jimmy" and "James Tala-FREAKO." Republican congressman Brandon Gill on the same stage went after Talarico over the Daily Wire report earlier this year on the time he said the thing he loved most in the world was "trans children." St. Andrew's, the church where Talarico delivered his sermon that asserted that "our trans community needs abortion care too," says it offers banned books so that children can find "affirmation in the books they read." It boasts that the books "shift our perspective, develop empathy, and see more clearly the call to justice among all people." "We are a safe haven for controversial narratives right in the heart of Texas, the state that takes the top prize in challenged books. Take a moment to browse our collection of banned books and see what you notice ... common themes ... particular experiences and identities being censored," the church says of its banned books collection. Talarico has voted in the state legislature against keeping men out of women's sports and claimed it was "abusive" and "destructive" if parents did not accept their child's alleged gender identity. He has also stated his belief that "god is nonbinary," and that Jesus was a "radical feminist."Here are some pages from this Groomer Manual. Literally every aspect of "Christianity" is, according to this gay pretender, a validation of homosexuality and transgenderism:
CBS: "In 2021, you said God is non-binary. What did you mean by that? Do you regret describing it that way?"

Talarico: "God can't be defined by human categories. There are some statements I've made that I regret. Ken Paxton is intentionally clipping my cringey comments." pic.twitter.com/8NRdjewCsP
Only an idiot would fall for this. It’s not as if he even argued that God transcends any earthly classification. He purposely used the woke neologism for people who claim they don’t align with either "man" or "woman." https://t.co/Wsk4GtSydP
— David Harsanyi (@davidharsanyi) May 27, 2026
Tom FittonFrom that he gets "Jesus sayeth that we're all non-binary." He also says that Mary had to "give consent" to not abort Jesus:
@TomFitton
Leftist @jamestalarico again purposefully misquotes the Holy Bible to push devious falsehood God is transgender (in order to attack those who want to protect children from transgender extremist mutilation and abuse.) The passages he lies about are these: "For through faith you are all children of God in Christ Jesus. For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free person, there is not male and female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's descendant, heirs according to the promise." Galatians, 3:26-29.

Hi everyone. I've been a conservative Christian my whole life, but I'm very concerned about the direction that Bush took this country in, and which McCain is threatening to take it. While I have never before voted for a Democrat of any kind, I'm so concerned about the state of the country that I have decided to vote for the moderate centrist common-sense Democrat Barack Obama. He will bring hope to the country and heal our wounds.Over and over and over and over -- the same canned script being pumped out by David Axelrod's army of Paid Election Interferers. We used to call this "Mobying" because Moby, the bald gay vegan techno musician no one ever liked, explicitly championed spamming the comments of news sites and blogs with fake messages to trick Christians into voting for the extinction of Western civilization. We saw a very clumsy effort from the Democrats to convince us that all straight truck-driving beer-drinking Real Men were totally supporting Noted He-Man Tim Walz. You will not be too terribly surprised to learn that the same Concerned Christian Conservative Seminar Commenters have been reactivated to boost the gay Satanic seminarian Talarico:
Ryan J Higgins, Ed.D.Former AOS commenter and now NR cuck Jeff Behar made a good point about Talarico: Every claim he makes about "Christianity" is "instrumental." What he means by that is that Talarico never talks about Christ except to twist his words to support a far-left/transgender extremist agenda item. He never talks about the sacrifice of Christ, nor the salvation he offers. He never asks for prayer nor offers them. No, to Talarico, the New Testament only exists to prefigure the Democrat Socialists' 2026 agenda. The Bible and Christ Himself only exist as a pretext for pushing far-left talking points about gays, transgenders, abortion, and veganism.
@ryanjhiggins I'm a straight white dude, a veteran who grew up in a military family on farms in the Midwest. Moved to Texas on a scholarship from the Army. I drive a truck, listen to country music, and love football. I dare anybody to call me UnAmerican, and I'm fully behind Talarico.

The end result was that even today (when they are voting for AfD against globalists) East Germans are some of the most irreligious people in the world. At least religion in Poland and eastward had some coolness about it because it was against the commies, but religion was fake and gay for younger people in East Germany, so they just gave up on it.

If he was a radical feminist why didn't he free the jewish women from their restrictive hebrew laws? They had to cover their heads in public and they couldn't worship in synagogue with men, they literally had to sit in the back by themselves and not participate.

“In his remarks celebrating his victory Tuesday night, Paxton referred to Talarico by a string of mocking nicknames — “Tofu Talarico,” “Six gender Jimmy,” “James Tala-freako,” and “Low T Talarico” — while denouncing his positions related to gender-affirming care, immigration, energy and religion”
Is this truly all republicans are capable of? Derisive nicknames? And why do they work so well with voters?
No! Admit nothing, deny everything! You don’t see Ken Paxton apologizing for going soft on pedophiles. Don’t see Ken Paxton apologizing for cheating on his wife. Don’t see Ken Paxton apologizing for accepting bribes or committing securities fraud.
Don’t ever apologize!! Come on, James! These MAGA hate mongers are going to have a field day over any signs of backing down or appearing conciliatory!!

Talarico was born James Dell Collins in Round Rock, Texas on May 17, 1989, to Tamara (née Causey) and Steve Collins. Tamara left Steve, an abusive alcoholic, when James was seven weeks old, and a few months later she married Mark Talarico, who adopted James. Talarico, who took Mark's surname, attended Round Rock ISD schools and graduated from McNeil High School in Williamson County, Texas.
=============
I'd say the fact that Talarico adopted him, and that he's used it since at least HS, makes the use of the name reasonable. I will say that a woman - with an infant child - marrying a fella only a few months after divorcing the "abusive alcoholic" father is, perhaps, a bit suss on the surface.

Guess I'd better go drop some dough on Paxton's campaign and get a couple of signs for my yard. Thankfully, we have a fence and used to have big dogs - the liberal weenies are too afraid to come all the way up to the porch to steal/destroy stuff.
Most of them hate fences - even the one whose porch kitty met an untimely demise yesterday by the actions of a couple of roaming dogs.
They put up Ring camera videos of all of the miscreants who loitering on their porches and/or steal their Amazon packages, yet never make the connection that putting up a fence will deter that kind of stuff.
They are quick to call our Neighborhood Police Officer, but they hate ICE and want it refunded.
I honestly don't know how they keep their heads from exploding, what with all of the conflicting ideologies they cling to....

He is a funhouse mirror of what Democrats think conservative Texans are; because none of them actually know any conservative Texans.
Watching them howl in despair as their ads fail, the ones about how Talafreako is Christ's own Christian while Paxon is a sinning sinner who sins, is going to be so funny.
Almost as funny as the increasingly excitable pitches for donations, tantalizing that Texas will turn blue.

And he wasn't just "guy with R after his name".
The Bush wing of the party made him public enemy number one for years.
They went so far as to impeach him. And now...he won against incumbent senator Cornyn by 28 points.
Everything Democrats will drudge up is old news to Texas. They've heard it endlessly for a decade. Talarico is a fresh born babe in comparison, and he's already having to defend himself from the idea that he's a weird, Austinite freak.

"But the polls!! He leads both Paxon and Cornyn!!"
Yeah, the ones that all had him stuck at 44%?
Don't you think that his lead might have been due to not deciding on either Paxton or Cornyn?
And that's before we count that Paxton has already won multiple statewide races--the last decisively AFTER the impeachment smear.
But the Pants Pissers (like Errock Errockson) swear this means the RNC is going to have to divert millions and millions to TX to hold the seat.

Even that's not quite true about CA. The last time Republicans had durable majorities in the CA legislature was in the 1950s. It was a Republican state in the first half of the 20th Century, but they were Progressive Republicans like Earl Warren [spit].
Reagan was one of three Republican Governors who managed to win two terms in office (and six out of eight terms from 1967 to 1999), but they usually had to deal with Democratic legislatures, and the Brown family were winning governor races for Democrats before, during and after this period as well.
For some reason CA voted Republican in every presidential election from 1968 to 1988, but the state was NOT and never has been "rocked ribbed conservative". A lot of Democrats in Texas 60 years ago were probably more conservative 60 years ago than CA Republicans.

Practice, for one thing.
I’m old enough to remember a period or time in the early 1970s when “UniSex” clothing and fashions were all the rage. Or at least the usual suspects told us they should be. Some ideas are “ahead of their time”. They don’t quit is the point.
Somebody really, really wants to splinter what remains of the traditional or historical religious backbone in America. At one time it was an unbelievably powerful and formidable force in politics. Guys like Talarico are how you do that. Notice he just sort of popped up seemingly out of nowhere, and is getting all sorts of publicity?

Partisans don't change their votes, and America is deeply partisan.
Senate races drive up turnout to match PVI of the state overall, so turnout differentials in midterms disappear.
That means 2026 is far more likely to resemble the 2024 presidential results than the 2018 senate results.

OH will be a case study where there will probably be some divergence between the two races. Vivek will most likely run behind the senate race, but OH is so red that base partisanship and the increased turnout from the senate race should pull him over the line against Acton.
NC will be interesting, though. Senate race. No governor race, but former governor is the Dem candidate with Republicans winning the registration game 90% of the weeks since the last election where Trump won the last federal race in the state by 3. Last time Cooper won statewide, there were 400,000 more Democrats than Republicans in the state. There are now 10,000 more Republicans than Democrats. He won his last governor's race by 250,000.

Robinson tanked the entire statewide slate. The whole thing.
And yet...Trump still won the state.
This is either prima facie evidence that Trump stole the state (while choosing to...not steal the governorship), or evidence that state level races are viewed far less partisanly by voters.

I think he's represented his state well since a few years after the crash of 2008. (Nationalize the banks, he said...oh boy...)
He's effectively a backbencher at this point for all the noise he makes now, which is just this side of none. He just hitched himself to Trump once he realized that Trump was the future of the party (which took longer than some, but a lot less than many others), cheered when Trump bombed someone, voted for all the judicial nominees without complaint, and generally just developed a seemingly warm professional relationship with the party's standard bearer.

He's set.

“If someone’s got a problem with that statement…they should take it up with the Apostle Paul.”

The Apostle Paul wasn't trying to get the ancient Celtic people/warriors who settled in Turkey into Christianity? I think it's a pretty safe bet.
Anyway, if James cares to quote correctly from the New Testament and apply the scripture -
Matthew 7:15, Jesus warns His followers to beware of false prophets who appear harmless and godly on the outside but are "ravenous wolves" on the inside.
2 Peter 2:1 warns that false teachers will secretly introduce dangerous heresies, ultimately bringing destruction upon themselves.
Perhaps the good folks of Texas should be preparing false prophet signs for when James comes out to speak or debate.
I certainly would.

"Doctor" Jill Biden Continues the Family Business of Lying, Claiming She Had "Never, Ever" Seen Joe Biden As Confused As He Was During the 2024 Debate, "Before or Since"
She claims she was so "frightened" of what she was seeing from Joe Biden -- that she'd never, ever seen before -- that she thought he was having a stroke.
I think he's had a lot of strokes. This is all a gigantic lie, obviously. She has been banished from the Democrat Party and the Democrat Media and she needs to be in their good graces when Sheriff Joe kicks it. Also, these lines were obviously pre-scripted and repeated numerous times, with political operatives coaching her on how emphatically to say "never, ever." And to also say "I don't know" when asked well, what did you think was going on when you saw this completely unprecedented mental fogginess?
Jill Biden to CBS on the 2024 debate: “I was frightened because I had never seen Joe like that... I thought he was having a stroke."

If she questioned it at the time, she was an awful person who was only helping Trump. Fuck these people. Remember how it was the same way with Fetterman?
And then immediately after the debate she was like “Great job Joe, you answered every question.” Great work, lady. You sure are a woman of conviction.
Joe Biden is about as decent a man as you’ll find in politics at that level, but he should have just done one term and given a whole field of candidates the runway to build on his victories. There would have been no shame in being a consequential one term president. Instead we’re here and hubris was a big part of why.
>In fairness after J6 nobody thought Trump had a chance. I knew with 100% certainty that if he was not prosecuted and incarcerated for his actions on January 6th alone, he would ascend to godhood in the eyes of MAGA and crush the impotent administration that let him walk in the next election.
Why are these people still doing interviews like this? Who cares? CBS news is right wing trash.

He wasn't throwing fastballs in '08. He was spiking his mitt on the mound, throwing insults at the umpire, stomping around scratching his crotch. And when Palin was getting fed up with his antics letting them throw her off her game, he'd toss a 68mph whiffleball that she'd miss out of sheer frustration.

This remains one of the top exhibits in how far from reality the left is, how they will refuse to see any facts that deviate from the "accepted truth."
No one but a deeply delusional Democrat would ever say Joe was a decent man.
Ever.
There is literally no evidence anywhere from any time in his life he was "decent."
But more than that, just try getting them to admit that Joe himself promised a single term when he was running for the nomination.

Today of course there's AOC, the entire Black Caucus, and others I just don't know of.
But almost none of those named are as vile and nasty as the idiot Biden. Senators didn't trust him, in the most basic sense.
If the country hadn't already beclowned itself beyond redemption with Obama (and the hysteria that partly made him possible), allowing Biden to be installed as prez would have been the nail in the coffin. As it was it just made the rubble bounce.*

I believe two big reasons he ran for the 2nd term were because she wanted to keep the perks and the power (which is why she wanted him to run in 2018/2019), and because Joe being in public office benefited pretty much the entire Biden family: kids, siblings, etc. Out he goes, and the money dries up, which it did.

People with vascular dementia live longer than is typical with an Alzheimer's diagnosis. I suspect most of Biden's is vascular due to a similarity in my mom's progression with that diagnosis. Spent a lot of time with top notch docs at a specialty clinic. About the only sure way to determine mixed dementia (most people have this) is apparently a brain PET scan.

Blinken was one, Jarrett/Obama another, and Hunter/Jill. I think the Obama team was chagrined that Hunter and Jill stymied Joe being replaced until too late. There are some others like Susan Rice, Brennan, etc. flying around the heaping pile of shit that is the Kalorama project hq.

I think it's absolutely remarkable (and very telling) that China didn't make a move on Taiwan during the Biden presidency. It's a good bet that Biden would have done very little to stop it for the right amount of scratch. And, since the Senate was in McConnell's hands at the time (with his familial ties to China), there would have been a similar response there.

This was back in the Summer of Love, and I was hitchhiking to Woodstock outside of the steel foundry where I got cancer from a dirty furnace, when this VW bus with flowers on the side pulls up.
Anyway, we run out of gas on this farm, and then - would you believe it? - a ghostly alien starts terrorizing us. Well, I put on my aviators and dragged that Russian sonofabitch into a wind tunnel, and started beating him with a chain. It turns out it's not a ghost alien... it's Trump! He was just trying to scare people off the farm so he could sell it to the Air Force at a gouged price.
Back in those days, Democrats took action, so I told him "listen jack - nobody rips off the taxpayer. Not on my watch!" And then I beat him to death. Afterward, I was so aroused that I banged that drugged-out hippie fella in the van, and 9 months later, Hunter was born. I also banged that dog.

Rice was the NSA, Jarrett took the lead on Iran and domestic politics. Holder dealt with Justice. Biden's guy , Ron Klain, was his Chief of Staff for the first two years and then replaced by a guy named Zients.
Zients was probably brought in to try to coordinate economic policy after the horrendous inflation and shortages between Powell and Yellen.

I'd imagine that Obama was the middle man between the big donors like Soros, Steyer, etc. who relayed information to the vast number of undersecretaries,etc. under his administration and his former cabinet types like Holder and lawfare inc dealt with corresponding current cabinet types like Garland. Kind of like the Soviet System. You had a dying Breznev at the helm as the titular leader but you had people behind each big institution-State/CIA, DoD, DoJ, etc. that were running the show.

Two Tier Injustice: In the UK, a Sikh Robbed a Man and Stabbed Him. When Police Approached, the Sikh Claimed the Man Bleeding Out on the Street Was a Racist.
So the Police Handcuffed the Victim and Watched as he Bled Out.
The man was Sikh, not Muslim, but he was obviously using the UK's Two-Tier Justice scheme to enlist the state as his accomplices in robbing, stabbing, and ultimately murdering a native Brit.
Reportedly, there is audiotape of the man on the ground -- now handcuffed and in even more discomfort -- pleading to the police that he needs aid because he's been stabbed. "I don't think so, mate," the cop responds, as the man's life oozes out of him. The Sikh man claimed the victim had racially abused him which, in his mind as well as in the minds of the cops, justified stabbing him.So: Was it true that the Sikh had robbed and stabbed the man? It turns out the victim's phone was found on the person of the innocent Sikh who was justifiably defending himself from "racial abuse" so make up your own minds.
Visegrád 24Another satisfied customer of the Cultural Enrichment Murder and Rape Machine.
@visegrad24 May 21 🇬🇧 Graphic details emerge in the trial of Vickrum Digwa, accused of murdering the Polish-British student Henry Nowak A jury has been shown mobile phone footage of the confrontation. Digwa told the court he was carrying a 21cm kirpan (a Sikh ceremonial blade) around his neck and feared Nowak would use it against him. "I thought I had to do something because I was afraid that he was going to stab me with my own kirpan," he said. He denies intentionally stabbing Nowak in the chest, claiming he only pushed him away during the struggle. Nowak attempted to flee the scene, climbing over a fence while Digwa was still stabbing him Police initially handcuffed Nowak while he was on the ground, bleeding out, due to Digwa claiming that Nowak was a racist attacker. The court also heard allegations that Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, 53, removed the kirpan from the scene after the stabbing. She denies assisting an offender.
He had to defend himself from the racial abuse by stabbing the man three times... in the back. As he tried to escape. The guy had six stab wounds in his body but the cops were focused on handcuffing The Real Criminal Here.
Sikh man accused of murdering university student with 8-inch ceremonial knife used racism as his 'trump card' to ensure police arrested his dying victim instead, court hears
A Sikh man accused of murdering a university student with a ceremonial knife used racism as his 'trump card' to ensure police arrested his dying victim instead, a court has heard. Prosecutors said Vickrum Digwa, 23, was 'skilled' with blades when he came to murder Henry Nowak, 18, having trained with weapons since he was 12. Digwa is on trial accused of stabbing Mr Nowak three times in the front and three times in the back during a street confrontation.
The man "drowned in his own blood." He could have been saved, but the police were too busy comforting his murderer. Note that while knives are illegal in the UK, Sikhs are granted a special right to carry their religious knives. Two-Tier Justice. I wonder why:
In his closing speech to jurors at Southampton Crown Court, Nicholas Lobbenberg KC said Digwa must have known the wounds were fatal, despite denying stabbing Mr Nowak at the scene. He said Digwa used racism as his 'trump card', accusing Mr Nowak of racial abuse when police officers arrived so they would arrest the wrong man - a 'wicked lie about a dying man'. Digwa was said to 'sleep in his bedroom with an arsenal of weapons' and spoke about the Kirpan - a type of ceremonial dagger carried by Sikhs - allegedly used to kill Mr Nowak in 'loving terms'.
The finance student was on his way home from a night out when Digwa stabbed him multiple times with the religious blade, prosecutors have said. Jurors were told that Digwa filmed his victim as he tried to escape by jumping over a fence, leaving behind a trail of blood in Southampton. Mr Nowak was shouting that he was 'going to die', causing his neighbours to call the police - but when the officers arrived they arrested him over the bogus racist abuse allegation. Soon after he was handcuffed, the University of Southampton student collapsed and died from his injuries.
Prosecutors also allege that Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, 53, took the blade from her son at the scene and ran to hide it with 'an arsenal of weapons' at their home address. Digwa is charged with murder and possession of a bladed article, and his mother is charged with assisting an offender. Both defendants deny the charges.
... Mr Lobbenberg said that Digwa had lied about Mr Nowak being drunk that night and he was actually under the legal limit of alcohol to drive. He said: 'The biggest lie, ladies and gentlemen, is why he drew his knife. He told you from that witness box, Henry Nowak said he was going to kill me. He was going to f*** me up. 'We suggest that was never said. You can be sure it was never said because why, if it had been said, would you not tell the 999 operator the most important thing as to why you acted. 'He didn't tell the police at the scene who were asking. He didn't tell his brother when he was saying what happened. 'If this was in the forefront of his mind, seared into his memory, why wouldn't you tell someone. 'Instead, he didn't even put the threat to kill in his defence case statement. 'It came from him for the first time in the witness box.' Mr Lobbenberg said that there was a stream of lies from Digwa starting from the minutes after the incident. He said: 'We say this, "drunk" is a lie, "going to kill me" is a lie and we say "P***" is a lie. The consequence and purpose of these lies is significant. 'Why he tells them is he is seeking to hide what he has done. 'And racism was his trump card to try to make sure what he had done was lawful. 'We say that was a wicked lie about a dying man and it is a wicked lie about a dead man to you now.' Mr Lobbenberg said that Mr Nowak was an 'unarmed young man with a phone'.

UK Authorities Issue Stern Warning To British People To Stop Being Stabbed By Muslims
LONDON -- In the wake of yet another deadly stabbing of a British citizen at the hands of a migrant, authorities in the United Kingdom issued a stern warning to all native residents to stop being stabbed to death by Muslims. The latest horrific incident was just the most recent in an ongoing pattern of violence perpetrated by Muslim migrants, leading the British government to warn the public of dire consequences if they refuse to stop being stabbed by foreign invaders. "All these people being stabbed need to knock it off," said London's Metropolitan Police Service spokesman Basil Hetherington. "We have simply had enough of this nonsense. If these individuals who keep getting stabbed and slashed to death by crazed, violent migrants don't curb their disruptive behavior immediately, there will be severe repercussions. We cannot have these incidents continue to happen throughout our communities, and therefore warn all stabbing victims to stop being stabbed, posthaste." ... At publishing time, the UK authorities had issued a full public apology to the migrant perpetrators for any additional difficulties they had endured while carrying out their deadly stabbings.
Well done to @RobertJenrick for raising this in Parliament.

Sikhs are badasses (as noted, they have a religious requirement to carry a knife) but as I understand it that's mostly due to their history in defending themselves against Muslims.

The barbarity of the act feels headline grabby in and of itself that it's original happening (which freaks me out!) should have attracted attention in the right-leaning social media space. But it didn't.
I just find the absence of any knowledge of the event until the trial...interesting.

"Kaur" is a surname that all Sikh women have, just as all Sikh men have the surname "Singh". It's more of a title, like "Mr." or "Mrs."
"Singh" means "lion". "Kaur" literally means "princess", but is often translated as "lioness".

Will the British political system successfully shield the police who did this identification and consequences for the police who did this, and for the officials who created the policy that led to it? Their bureaucracies appear to be more opaque than ours.
I'm also kind of wondering about the ethnicity of the cops. Maybe they didn't mind if a white guy died, for tribal reasons.
Yeah, tribal. Most of the world is tribal, and it's time to stop pretending otherwise. The mother took the knife from the scene as if her son had had an accident while out hunting deer. It's kind of interesting that she cleaned and kept the murder weapon, instead of throwing it away. I think the family regarded the knife more highly after it was used to kill.

This is why a white football player in NYC making a pro forma introduction for a duly elected President is SCANDALOUS.
Dude didn't even say anything inflammatory, but everyone seeing that knew he was asking every skel in quiet city Gotham to attack him with a deadly weapon. So everyone, friend and foe alike, just says "oof, watch your back, asshole. You shouldn't have poked your head up."

India is a cesspool of unchecked organized crime that is currently spreading quickly across the globe. The main crime family is the Bishnoi Syndicate. At 33 years old, Lawrence Bishnoi is considered one of the most powerful and active contemporary mob bosses in India. He runs it from jail, and has well over 1000 members at this point. It's almost comical in a dark way that they run it just like the gangsters from the 1920's US. For example, right now the big thing in Canada is for Bishnoi members to set up protection rackets in small Canadian towns. Pay, or we burn you out sort of stuff. Bishnoi runs a lot of double brokering on US trucking companies. Steals cargo. Also, big on insurance fraud in the US.

Lot of them in the scam trucking business in the US. Use Singh and truck accidents as a search term.
People tend to idolize minority groups in other countries like the Kurds with the idea if other people from that society loathe a minority, then they must be okay.
This can be an amusing game, for example, ask a Euro about someone from perhaps Morocco or Syria, and you might get some explanation of how oppressed they were etc. But ask them about gypsies, Euros start foaming at the mouth wanting them all dead.
Not all culture are the same nor is the degree a minority is 'oppressed' a measure of their virtues if imported here.

🇬🇧 More than 130 thousand people gathered for George Floyd in London in 2020, despite the COVID epidemic. And there has not been a single dedicated gathering of that scale in honor of Henry Nowak.
Both of them uttered, "I can't breathe" as their last words. The population of London showed massive support for George Floyd, whose case doesn't even concern the UK.
Yet, London did not care to protest for a British citizen who lost his life due to British problems like knife crime and police incompetence.

Maybe Sikhs on average are better than other people from India, but they are still tribal, and loyalty to their tribe comes first. They do not appear to have a problem with being manipulative a dishonest to people outside their family and tribe. Witness the large number of incompetent and illiterate illegal alien, turban-wearing truck drivers in this country named Singh. It isn't just the ruthless abuse of the system -- it's also, when they stupidly kill someone with their truck, it means nothing to them, like they hit a deer.

Doesn't change the fact that they can murder or rape in the UK with impunity, and in many places here.
Easiest answer is to stop allowing foreigners in, and clear out as many as we can before they become citizens.
We have enough of our own criminals to deal with, and at least American ones theoretically have the same rights as us, instead of the special carte-blanche that comes with a foreign birth certificate.

Peggy Flanagan (D) is now effectively the DFL Endorsed candidate for U.S. Senate in Minnesota.
This is significant because we are set to see a bloody primary on the Democrat’s side of the isle going into August.
If Republicans manage to endorse Michele Tafoya this weekend in Duluth, we will have a significant fundraising advantage going into November with Democrats in a circular squad.

IMO it is a mixed bag.
India has massive fraud with everything so a bunch of the people coming over can't really do the jobs they are hired for, but I've know some good Indian coders, analysts, etc.
But I have noticed a large number of upper caste Indian AWFLs leading "anti-racism" orgs. Because, of course, racism is such a problem for people from India in the US.
Now, here's a funny thing to throw back at them - the left for a long time has argued that if you can show disparate impact it is prima facie evidence of racial discrimination.
But...Indian immigrants to the US make significantly more then the US median. So obviously they are discriminating against non-Indians right?

Ken Dilanian: Kash Patel Has Fired a Completely Non-Partisan FBI Analyst For No Other Reason Than Disagreeing with Him About a "Shooter's Motive" Ten Years Ago
That's the headline/digest this CIA operative and FusionGPS asset posted on Twitter to advertise his MSNOW article.
Based on that headline, would you care to guess who that shooter might have been, and what disagreement there might have been about his motive? To help you out, the shooting he's talking about happened in 2017, not quite ten years ago. Do you have your answer? Further hint: This analyst claimed the shooter wasn't a domestic terrorist with any political motive, but was simply shooting rando targets in order to get police to kill him. That is, "suicide by cop." Yes, he's talking about a Democrat operative who refused to acknowledge that the James Hodgkinson III, the man who shot up Republicans at a softball practice and hit Steve Scalise five times, wasn't Aksually a Rachel Maddow fan and Bernie Sanders volunteer who hated Republicans, but just a man with no discernible motive other than seeking to end his own life in the most convoluted manner possible.FBI fires analyst who worked 2017 case of shooting at congressional baseball practice The shooting, which seriously injured Rep. Steve Scalise, was not labeled domestic terrorism at the time, angering GOP lawmakers. Ken Dilanian FBI Director Kash Patel last week fired a senior intelligence analyst who played a role in the FBI's 2017 assessment of the motives of the gunman who attacked a House Republican baseball practice, a report that drew the ire of the GOP because it did not label the incident as domestic terrorism. Four people familiar with the matter said Deputy Assistant Director Emily Morales received a letter from Patel on Friday ending her FBI employment, after which she turned in her badge and was "walked out" by FBI security, as is standard practice. Morales could not be reached for comment. It was unclear whether the letter cited her role in the 2017 assessment, but the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity in order to discuss a personnel matter, said her removal was widely perceived inside the bureau as the latest in a series of firings of nonpartisan FBI agents who did their jobs in a way that drew disfavor from President Donald Trump or Republicans. MS NOW reported five months ago that Tonya Ugoretz, who was the assistant director in charge of the Intelligence Directorate, was removed because of her role in withdrawing a thinly sourced intelligence report alleging that China tried to flood the United States with fake driver's licenses in order to promote fraud in the 2020 election. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has boasted that the FBI forced out every agent who worked on the criminal investigations of Trump that resulted in indictments. Former acting director Brian Driscoll and other former agents are suing the bureau and Patel, alleging they were fired for political reasons. The FBI Agents Association has asserted that many of these firings were illegal. The FBI declined to comment on personnel matters. In June 2017, James Hodgkinson opened fire on a Republican congressional baseball practice in Alexandria, Virginia, shooting four people, including two Capitol Police officers and Congressman Steve Scalise. Hodgkinson was shot and killed by police. Although he had a history of criticizing Republicans and was carrying a list of Republican lawmakers in his pocket, the FBI initially did not label Hodgkinson a domestic terrorist.Oh is that all the evidence? Is that it? Just a history of hatred of Republicans and a list of Republicans in his pocket to murder? Oh -- and also, being an MSNBC Super-Fan, particularly of lesbian antiamerican communist Rachel Maddow.
An FBI official briefing Congress described what happened as "suicide by cop," according to a report by House Republicans issued last March. In 2021, the FBI provided a statement to the House Appropriations Committee which read, "The shooter was motivated by a desire to commit an attack on Members of Congress. ... This conduct is something that we would today characterize as a domestic terrorism event." Then-FBI Director Christopher Wray explained to Congress that the incident did not fit the FBI's definition of domestic terrorism at the time, but that the definition had evolved. The report by House Republicans was deeply critical of the FBI, saying, "The FBI case file makes clear this case was a premeditated assassination attempt on Republican congressmen by a radical, left-wing political extremist, who was seeking to affect the conduct of our government."It's incredible that they lied about this. It's even more incredible that they continue lying about this.
Not domestic terrorism? The maniac asked if it was "Republicans or Democrats out there." Learning it was the Republican team, the shooter proceeded to the field and fired over 60 rounds into the Republicans. pic.twitter.com/gzz0YNYYe2

Then-FBI Director Christopher Wray explained to Congress that the incident did not fit the FBI's definition of domestic terrorism at the time, but that the definition had evolved.
Wray's definition of domestic terrorism is that violence against Republicans does not apply, because it's not terrorism, Democrat Party operatives would never engage in violence, and those Republicans deserve to die anyway.

Based on the available search results, there is no evidence that the "Hitler reacts" (Downfall) meme has been specifically used to parody or react to the controversy surrounding Graham Platner (the Maine Senate candidate often jokingly referred to as "Herr Oberoysterfuhrer" in online discussions due to his oyster farm and tattoo controversy).

I read an interesting biography, authored by a leftist who kept “exposing” all these horrible, terrible things Hoover did. Often, I found myself thinking “This is Fucking Awesome!”, or at best he didn’t understand how top secret information is handled, not even a little bit.
One of his digs, was that (somehow) Hoover withheld intelligence purposefully that Japan was going to attack Pearl Harbor. That did not happen.
He also made the charge that Hoover made the Bureau look like they had cracked the Nazi spy ring that had landed on the East coast, when in fact George Dasch had surrendered.
That much is true, or both can be true. Undoubtedly the idea at the time, was to prevent the Nazis from learning about the surrender. You want the Enemy to believe these guys were rounded up immediately.
Anyhoo, what I’m getting at, we need guys like Hoover today. Yes, he was an asshole. I’m starting to get a man crush on G. Gordon Liddy, too. (No Homo!)

True. The brains on the ops figure that what exists now must be torn down in order to rebuild. Most of the left are idiotic at best but their leaders are crazed societal arsonists at their worst.

Garbled in transmission, it should have been read as : Trust Wray as he is reliably a traitor to the US.
Still wonder who exactly was behind that shady ops because Trump never formally denounced it and the left never claimed it as an op. The whole thing goes back to a NKVD op during Lenin's time.
So my guess is a group of individuals that Trump may have thought were on his side but actually were not in his first term. They weren't on the Dem side directly either. And I have my suspicions exactly the public faces of that group.
Think former intel officers of Uncle Sam.

The Soviets had a spy at the highest level in the Nazi regime. Nobody is quite sure who it was, but undoubtedly someone very highly placed. Nicknamed “Werther”, eventually Stalin learned to trust the information provided. It was a gold mine. He was getting high level info even before it could be disseminated to German commanders.
One of the few possibilities is, get this - Martin Bormann. Who conveniently was never found, or at least there is some dispute.

NPR: For far-right extremists, the rise of a new enemy: Women.
...last week's attack on a California mosque illustrates a violent ideology and playbook...A 75-page typewritten document...and a livestreamed video showing the attack show extensive grounding in far-right, neo-Nazi thinking.
But one facet of the ideology...has been left out of much mainstream coverage.
"He just flat out says he hates women and that they're the devil and they're destroying everything. And this is an important thing, because that kind of misogyny did not exist in white supremacist circles, say, 10, 15 years ago,"
it is comparable to antisemitism, a foundational underpinning of white nationalist thinking that is rooted in conspiracy theories. Antisemitism has been an essential ideological component behind white supremacist attacks at mosques, retail establishments frequented by African Americans and Latinos, gay bars and schools.
"We've seen similar kinds of conspiratorial thinking about women 'pulling the strings behind the scenes'...the targeting of a mosque in San Diego is something that is interrelated not only with Islamophobia, but also with antisemitism and deep misogyny."

Republicans may be marginally better, but still, I think that even if Adam Hamawy blew himself up on the floor of the House and killed everyone, it would 'just' be a tragic loss of human life. They are all precious in the eyes of God, but rather replaceable in their function. They don't really possess paramilitary target value.

DNS attacks are becoming very frequent as too many internet ignorant people don't secure their networks nor their connected devices. And to be fair, the mfg don't help at all with security issues but leaving default passwords or easily cracked ones on accounts, internet routers, internet connected devices like TVs, etc. are asking those to be enrolled in a botnet.
As home internet enters gig or faster speeds, a compromised refrigerator can spew out an amazing number of IP requests while the owner of the device wonders why their internet is slow and spotty. So they pay to upgrade, service doesn't improve, and so on.

FBI is too crude by half with their games and part of that is the deterioration of education. Same goes for CIA types. My guess is probably people formerly related to military intelligence and a particular search index that shut down shortly after the Biden admin took office. If it had been a Dem affiliated op from the tech industry or party, it would have leaked as owning the stupid Right.
It didn't. That makes me think the people behind it knew opsec which the CIA pays lip service to and the FBI ignores. So that leaves foreign intel or US former military types.

I've read it. I even read his technothriller (where his protagonist gushes over the Ballester-Molina pistol he acquires for the big finale, citing the common yet incorrect legend that the BMs were built from armor plate acquired from the German pocket battleship Graf Spee).
My less-than-charitable opinion is based mostly on what he admits in his autobiography.

Maybe. There will be an oil glut, but the timing is not apparent to me as I am not up on how fast new wells can be integrated into production but at higher prices than the past several years, probably faster than a lot of experts think.
Ending sanctions on Russian oil will help somewhat too and eliminate another source of cheap crude for the Chinese except it will also be at the cost of Ukraine. Putin seems determined to keep on with that war indefinitely.

Leading NJ Democrat Congressional Candidate Volunteered to Join an Al Qaeda Terrorist Front Group
This guy was also a character witness -- a positive character witness, mind you -- for the "Blind Sheikh" terrorist who was the mastermind behind the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, Muslim terrorists' first attempt to bring down the towers. In case you forgot, they parked vans filled with explosives next to the pillars that supported the entire WTC, which went up from the bedrock through the underground parking garages and then through the entire towers. The plan would have worked, except that they just didn't bring enough explosives. Just eight years later, Osama bin Ladin would perfect the plan by using planes as the bombs. And what a shock, this loyal Muslim citizen who Shares Our Values and certainly would not support terrorism turns out to in fact support terrorism. And Democrats are about to make him a Member of Congress, with the ability to smuggle bombs into Congress itself.Oh, I guess there was a plan for a whole series of bombings, after the attempt to destroy the towers and kill 6000 or more people. (Remember, if this plan had worked, there would have been no evacuation time to get out of the building before it collapsed).
Leading N.J. Dem Congressional candidate Adam Hamawy volunteered with Al-Qaida-tied group in Bosnia After traveling with the 'Blind Sheikh,' Hamawy worked with Benevolence International Foundation, later shuttered as an Al-Qaida front
Adam Hamawy's past relationship with terrorist mastermind Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman has loomed over his rapid rise in the race to succeed retiring Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ). Their relationship spanned a 1991 road trip the two took together to Detroit, Hamawy's service as the sheikh's translator for a press conference in which Abdel-Rahman denied any role in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and Hamawy's testimony on the sheikh's behalf at his 1995 trial, where the Islamist leader was convicted of plotting to carry out a campaign of terrorist attacks in New York City.
IIRC, the blast penetrated through six floors, and it subsequently cost $1B to clean all the soot out of the building. Posted by: gp
But just one year before Hamawy took the witness stand to describe his travels with Abdel-Rahman, the now-Congressional candidate made a different journey with another party entangled in terrorist conspiracies: to Bosnia, with a group subsequently shut down for providing "logistical support" to Al-Qaida. In a 1996 interview with the Newark Star-Ledger, according to a copy Jewish Insider recovered through an archive of print publications, Hamawy described volunteering in Bosnia during the summer of 1994 with a Chicago-based nonprofit called the "Benevolence International Foundation." ... Sarajevo and Zenica were the exact cities where Benevolence International maintained its offices -- offices that Bosnian authorities raided in 2002, part of a joint effort with U.S. authorities to dismantle the group, which they had identified as a front for Al-Qaida. The 9/11 Commission Report would later identify the foundation's base in the Bosnian capital as part of the "impressive array of offices [that] covertly provided financial and other support for terrorist activities" that Osama bin Laden established in the early 1990s. Hamawy, who has scored endorsements from Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Reps. Ro Khanna (D-CA), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) in his New Jersey congressional bid, did not respond to repeated questions about his relationship with Benevolence International and his contacts and activities in Bosnia. The plastic surgeon has emerged as a frontrunner in the congressional race despite his relationship with the "Blind Sheikh" receiving significant coverage in recent weeks.Oh the media's covering it up? What a surprise! Update: More.
A 1995 court transcript shows how the then-medical student Hamawy described meeting the Islamist leader in 1991, visiting him at his home and accompanying him on a 13-hour van trip to a conference in Detroit. In the courtroom, he and the sheikh greeted each other warmly, and Hamawy denied a government informant's claim that Abdel-Rahman had urged the assassination of the then-president of Egypt. But no other publication has reported Hamawy's connection to Benevolence International since the Star-Ledger interview in 1996.
...
But what has given the plastic surgeon such recent prominence has been his volunteer work in the Gaza Strip during Israel's war with Hamas, including at the European Hospital in Khan Younis. The IDF struck the hospital repeatedly in 2025 to take out an underground Hamas command center that it said operated beneath the medical center. In multiple interviews in far-left media, Hamawy has denied the existence of such a terrorist post, and insisted to Jacobin that the facility was "a completely benign civilian hospital with no tunnels underneath it."

There was a conscious strategy by Clinton era goons in government to treat state level foreign terrorism - acts of war, technically speaking, as some sort of garden variety criminality that ought to be handled by the courts.

BUT
You still need people to tell the AI what to do, manage it, and make sure it isn't doing something screwy and wrong.
So...my prediction currently is AI will be like other computer related tools used in white collar jobs - it does mean you need fewer people overall BUT management will find more things for you to do anyway (now whether the more stuff is actually valuable or not is an open question)

Because Saddam tried to kill GHWB, Shrub's father in Kuwait is my guess. The second reason is that Iraq was doable for an invasion in which Iran wasn't. Iran has a much greater land area plus a much larger population about twice the size of Iraq. We also knew already how to take Iraq and the northern quarter was a no go region already for Saddam because of the Kurds.
The dumbass Bush and his idiots from the CIA and State Dept. decided instead of leaving after Saddam got offed, we would stick around and make Iraq into a democracy.

Maybe the plan does not include bombing Congress. The plan is to infiltrate, bribe, and subvert. Once they've taken over, they'll put minarets in front of the Capitol and claim they built it.

Classic liberalism projects values as universal. They aren't. Outside of perhaps a few universal wants--eats, shelter, etc., the higher level wants and needs are dictated by the culture around them, in many cases far older than the West.
So liberals trending into leftist thought believed in contradictory things--one is that leftists were the most perfect and moral beings ever on this earth, and that all cultures are equal, in part because the old liberalism made peoples of the world into interchangeable widgets. Commies adopted that.
So among the leftists now, it is an oppression olympics based on personal identifiers where the party cadre fight over who is the most oppressed (and consequently highest status deserving rule) of all. Everyone is unique but the same.
Leftist crackpots using society instead of economics where everyone is equal but some are more equal than others.

Demented Cane-Shaking Sasquatch Al Green Loses His Primary Hugely
Al Green is a noted crusader for the rights of indigenous cavemen.
He carries what he says is a Magic Stick that allows him to poke ghosts in the belly when they get to hollerin' and actin' the fool.
Christian Menefee defeats longtime Houston Rep. Al Green in Texas' new 18th Congressional DistrictThey packed as many Democrats as possible into a few districts. But there are fewer blue districts now. Trump had thoughts:
Green's loss means the Texas House delegation is losing one of its most senior members, who served more than 20 years in Congress. Green, who has represented the 9th Congressional District since 2005, has been a vocal opponent to President Donald Trump's policies in Washington and a fixture on the Houston political scene. Green repeatedly and unsuccessfully filed articles of impeachment for Trump during the president's first and second terms. He was also removed from the State of the Union earlier this year after unfurling a protest sign. He had vowed to continue fighting Trump's agenda if reelected and leaned on his experience, pitching himself as the candidate has been doing the job. Menefee will face the GOP nominee Ronald Dwayne Whitfield. Whitfield faces an uphill battle as the district is deep blue; Kamala Harris would have carried the new district by 55 points.
Congratulations to the Dumocrat Party! Al Green, one of the most mentally deficient Congressmen in the history of our Country, has lost, in a landslide, his seat in Congress -- But I will miss that lunatic not screaming and violently waving his cane at me during my next State of the Union Speech.

Green is also 78 years old. There's something to be said for respecting a career and telling the man, "It's been real."
That's what I thought when the news said Green was **40+** years older than Menefee. Why are you running?? Let the new guard take the reins. I'm sick of this Diane Feinstein bullshit.
That's too bad. I like Al Green and will always remember him as someone who had the balls to draft up articles of impeachment against Trump.
Fuck AIPAC. I hate to the core all this goddamn victories sponsored by Netanyahu because it’s our tax money indirectly funding these Israel wins.

Hell, what did Democrats do with a trifecta under Biden? The IRA which was no more than payoffs to Democrat client groups.
No amnesty. No gun control. No single payer.
Hell, the DOJ intentionally tanked the lawsuits against Trump because the DOJ is so infested with Republicans that there was no way a Democrat could exert control over the independent department.
And now they show that they can't even fight at the state level? Seriously, we could have gotten a 17-0 Illinois map, but Pritzker is just scared of seeming to be too combative because he wants to appeal to moderates for a presidential run.
Fuck the Democrat Party. Corporatist fascist party that's no better than Trump."

Yes, a longtime incumbent who held his seat for 20 years got only 30% of the vote.
What is going on here? I think it's more than just the redistricting. Blue is blue. We often talk about how the end of USAID and related slush funds, and the tightening of voting controls, will affect the Dumocrap-GOP races.
But it also affects the intra-Dumocrap races too. I think that's what happened here. The old guard counted on piles of cheap money and loose vote controls to keep slithering back into their seats. No more.

Eh, I think it's both. They want the luxury that the graft gives them because then they can spout how communism is the only true way.
Hasan really is the model of a modern communist. Pampered, massive inferiority complex, has to have all the nicest things, petty and mean.
This is not a russian peasant buying the party line and living in squalor while fighting the revolution. And I am not sure that image was EVER apt.

They're in a death spiral, or a crazy spiral if you prefer. As they get more radical due to the outsized influence that their online posters have, moderate voices and moderate voters drop out. (They don't necessarily become Republican, but they do drop out) As they leave, the remaining group becomes more and more concentrated and competes to see who can win the crazy olympics.

Well, my point is largely about how demoralized they are.
So, the surface, that which animates them, is the policy stuff that they see no advancement on while Republicans get visible gains at the state level with redistricting (the lack of passage of the SAVE act which 3/4 of their own party supports seems weirdly absent, I dunno), and they see failure.
But then, in addition, the ecosystem is being dismantled.
The ecosystem is invisible to them, so they largely just see it in broader economic terms ("the economy sucks because my job got lost") but the real demoralizing aspect is the combination.
"The economy sucks so Republicans should be losing, but Republicans aren't losing."

And if you point out to leftists just how gerrymandered New England is you get one of the following:
1) That isn't gerrymandering, its like, random luck
B) That isn't gerrymandering, its like, Republicans don't bother appealing to New England people
III) Sure its gerrymandering, but like from 20 years ago so it doesn't count

There is a “gatekeeper” or winnowing quality to their selection process, that has been going on for many years.
Successful, rational decent individuals Need Not Apply. They have narrowed their acceptable viewpoints to a vanishingly small subset of whacked out beliefs. After many years, this is what we got.
One would be forgiven, if one did not know better, to think that they are ALL crazy as loon. This is not by accident, they WANT the crazy.
Remember at the core, the radical “burn it all down” contingent won the battles of the 1960s and 1970s. The Weathermen, the Black panthers, the Earth first.
Biden and Pelosi were the new wave politicians that swept in the early 1970s, in a sense replacing Moynihan and “Scoop”’Jackson or Hubert Humphrey.
Now the young radicals are tired of waiting for these fossils to get out of the way. You think things are fucked up now, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Incompetence is one thing. Corruption is one thing.
As we’ve seen, this latest batch of politicos are a deadly combination of corrupt AND incompetent. And they are belligerently ignorant.

I still think the midterms will trend towards Democrats because it's just the pattern.
But this massive hole in patronage that's suddenly developed is going to have some kind of effect.
If 1% of the quarter trillion that Vance has stopped since the start of the task force was going back into Democrat pockets, that's $2.5 billion to candidates, PACs, and Super PACs, not to mention the generalized ability to foster support by having people rely on the idea of the Democrat Party to just live.
That's not just ads on TV that translate to commissions to consultants. That's ballot harvesting operations.

There's a reason that Communist systems all become autocracies. Best example is the Soviet Union, which within 30 years of the Revolution became just a worse version of the same Czarist Autocracy they'd always had. Or China, which is "communist" in name only, and in fact has just gone back to the Imperial Government they've had for 2500 years.

Right, the seeds of its inevitable downfall were sown by its very success. Institutions inevitably become hidebound and unable to change with the times.
In 1979 say, nobody questioned the absolute power of the media based in New York. The television news broadcast outlets, the New York Times, et al.
Newspapers, magazines, the dead tree model of news is Dead.
But even the online internet version is a walking sucking chest wound. They became complacent and didn’t think they had to change. They had a 99% monopoly, and institutional government support, and laundered money. What could go wrong??

China is actually the best case we have of what I am talking about. They are STILL financed by our success because we gave them all our industry. If that had not happened, they might still have gone the fascist route (corporate communism) but I doubt they would have been anywhere near as effective/successful because then they would have been having to compete with our homegrown good domestically. (Assuming we had done something like Japan has done and held on to our own industry.)

And that's before we get to the pending SCOTUS opinion that will ban counting of ballots after Election Day.
IIRC, there were 3 seats in CA that flipped to Dem solely on late-counted ballots.
And that was under the old map.

Biden's lawsuit filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia seeks to block the Justice Department from releasing about 70 hours of audio files and transcripts to the House Judiciary Committee from interviews with ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer that were used for his 2017 memoir "Promise Me, Dad." The interviews were conducted in 2016 and 2017.

Wednesday Morning Rant
The judicial power shall extend to all cases, in law and equity, arising under this Constitution, the laws of the United States, and treaties made, or which shall be made, under their authority;--to all cases affecting ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls;--to all cases of admiralty and maritime jurisdiction;--to controversies to which the United States shall be a party;--to controversies between two or more states;--between a state and citizens of another state;--between citizens of different states;--between citizens of the same state claiming lands under grants of different states, and between a state, or the citizens thereof, and foreign states, citizens or subjects.It is the Court's job to, among other things, adjudicate conflicts between states. It chose not to in 2020. As we see in 2026, that was not a one-off.
Last year, an unqualified illegal alien named Harjinder Singh executed an illegal U-Turn in a big rig on the Florida Turnpike. The illegal maneuver caused a car wreck that killed three people. Despite being an illegal alien who could not speak English and failed to recognize road signs, Singh was improperly issued a CDL by the states of California and Washington, and he fled to California after the wreck. A few days after his return to California, he was arrested by the US Marshals. California's (and other states') regular issuance of improper and illegal CDLs to unqualified and often illegal aliens is a problem with interstate ramifications.
In response to this incident, Florida filed suit against California and Washington in October of last year. Being a conflict between the states, the case went before the Supreme Court. Or, rather it should have gone before the Supreme Court. This time, like every time there is a suit between the states that may prove politically difficult, the Court flatly refused to take the case. Unlike 2020, however, there were no mental gymnastics to justify it. A solid majority of the Court simply refused, and the majority issued no explanation. There was no rationale or justification, and the majority opinion was unsigned. Per the Washington Examiner:Florida filed a motion for the Supreme Court to hear the lawsuit directly because it was a lawsuit between two or more states, a rare instance of the high court’s original jurisdiction, but the unsigned majority did not offer an explanation for why it denied hearing the case.The actual opinion shows that clearly:
The motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied. JUSTICE THOMAS, with whom JUSTICE ALITO joins, dissenting from the denial of motion for leave to file complaintThis dissent follows, signed by the two justices who usually try to do the right thing. No majority opinion and therefore no author. Just "nah, we're not gonna do it." This is, as the Examiner pointed out, in the Court's actual, real, legitimate, Constitutional jurisdiction. And the Court refused, as has become its habit. Thomas made his opinion on this plain-language point quite clear:
This Court has exclusive original jurisdiction over Florida’s suit because it involves one State suing other States.This is not the first time Thomas has made this precise point, which is why quotes himself in his dissent. There is no venue for litigation between the states if the Court refuses to hear such cases, and the Court routinely refuses to hear such cases. I am sure the Court has much better things to do than hear "nuisance claims" (as this case was called by the defendants) - things like legislating from the bench. The non-communists have seen some victories in the Court over the past few years, but this case continues to underscore an ongoing problem. The Court is populated with political justices who never fail to find jurisdiction when it's a case they want to take, and never fail to reject their responsibilities when it's a case they don't - even if that leaves states with no venue whatsoever to sort out their grievances with each other.
Article III establishes that "[i]n all Cases . . . in which a State shall be [a] Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction." §2, cl. 2. Congress has made our original jurisdiction "exclusive" in "all controversies between two or more States," meaning that no other court can hear this case. 28 U. S. C. §1251(a).
I doubt this Court has discretion to refuse to hear cases within its exclusive original jurisdiction. ... "If this Court does not exercise jurisdiction over a controversy between two States, then the complaining State has no judicial forum in which to seek relief." Nebraska v. Colorado, 577 U. S. 1211, 1212 (2016) (THOMAS, J., dissenting from denial of motion for leave to file complaint). The only statute addressing this Court’s jurisdiction over these kinds of cases nowhere contemplates a process of discretionary review. See §1251(a) Nonetheless, this Court has adopted a discretionary approach to its exclusive original jurisdiction ...

And so, because they did not want to rule on a presidential election and gain the wrath of the left, the left still wants to pack them to the gills and deliver dictates without appeal.
The supreme court is THE thing the left wants complete control over because it is the one thing that could stymie them. And has. So all the court has done has filled them with a terrible anger to bring them under control.
This is the shit where people look at it 200 years from now and read it all at once and think 'Well, no wonder things went to shit. These people were cowards.'

The solution in Florida, absent SCOTUS intervention, is to check drivers with state/local resources, use the relationships with DHS in agreements like 287(g) to verify immigration status, and then hold them until deportation proceedings can happen.
Make the state so inhospitable to foreign, especially illegal, drivers that they simply refuse to take freight to the state.
In addition, though, with the recent SCOTUS ruling about how freight companies are liable for safety concerns from subcontracted drivers, well, it already seems like the foreign, illiterate drivers are getting squeezed out.
Nothing moves industries faster than financial incentives.

The commerce clause isn't a suicide pact. Could California just redefine a CDL as a license to go around in other states in clown suits and rape the populace? They are not far from that. If standards are not enforced and the blackrobed politburo just stands off to the side smirking then there is actually no agreement, it is null and void, and screw the law.

Fuck it. Violate the Commerce Clause. When Cali or Washington sues over the matter, point out that, as a controversies between two or more states, SCOTUS has exclusive original jurisdiction. If SCOTUS, once again, refuses to hear the issue... done and dusted.
If they choose to hear the issue, Florida may rightly point out that the whole unpleasantness could have been avoided by them doing their fucking job in the first place and then point out that Cali and Washington are violating federal law by issuing CDLs to persons not fluent in English.
Time to point out, again and again, the utter lack of feck amongst most of the members of the judiciary. If they want to play black robed gods then they cannot ignore the issues for which they are the specific judge.

This is the pattern, but I think the energy of anti-Trumpism is unique in a way that's going to hinder the Democrats ability to extend it full strength to the next target.
It's like how one major candidate can't retain the same coalition as the last. There will be changes (more Catholics here, fewer blacks there, etc.) in each transition.
So, what is anti-Trumpism? Well, it's hard left, AWFLs, black activists, and La Raza. GA primary voters this year were 9% white male.
One of the animating factors of anti-Trumpism has a sexual angle (grab 'em), and that goes away with Vance (or whomever).
I think that deflates the AWFL attack against whomever is next. Doesn't make it go away, but deflates it a bit.
All while Democrats have actively pushed out the white working class for pretty much 20 straight years since the rise of Obama.
The animating anti-Trump factors decrease but they get replaced with...what?

Let me tell you who James Talarico really is.
-He thinks God is “non-binary”
-Used the Bible to say the Virgin Mary would support abortion.
-Declared Jesus Christ was a “radical feminist”.
-Says atheists are “more Christ-like” than Christians.
-Called men in women's sports a "far right conspiracy."
-Thinks illegal aliens are “more Patriotic” than Americans.
-Believes there are six biological sexes.
-Posted guides on how to evade ICE.
-Called the border a “giant welcome mat”.
-Wants to abolish prisons.
-When asked what he thinks about besides family, he said “trans kids”.
Now he's trying to convince Texas he's a moderate.
His own words say otherwise.
When the devil tells you he’s evil, you best believe him.

Who was John Cornyn?
He was The Unfaithful Servant.
The Butler who spikes your tea or even bourbon(!) with arsenic to watch you die a slow dead even as you pay him top dollar. The one who eats your dog and watches your child drown because he cares nothing for you or about his job. He only does what ever he wishes to do.
You should have fired him long ago but Public Servant John Cornyn was left in place to burn the mansion down and abuse the sheep for years.
Fuck him and good riddance.

They'll try, but nothing they come up with be equal to the audio of Trump sayin "grab 'em by the pussy".
Plus, Vance and Rubio are family men, married once, with kids. The attacks just won't hit in the same way.
It's about not just animating those who scream that every Republican is a rapist, but about recruiting the next generation as well. Millennial progressives are doomed to become progressive Boomers screaming about Nixon.

This morning's report had a this editorial by J.J.
"Of course the problem is Trump's watch will come to an end at noon on January 21 2029. Was the era of Donald Trump a one-off, a speed bump on the road to hell that our nation had or has been on for decades or has President Trump not only slammed on the brakes but has he succeeded in throwing us into reverse and putting America back on track towards sanity?"
==========
Since his two terms have been labeled as "anomalies" by the press, many of our political class and a large segment of the public... yes, his term(s) were a "one off."
The political class will see to it that any like him are excluded, the chattering class will demonize anyone like him, and the public will be told to shun anyone like him.
Vance, Rubio, DeSantis, etc. will all be overshadowed by Trump. And diminished in the press as ineffective.
Whether Trump's detractors lose all life's meaning is debatable. There's still demonizing to be done.

They can do that - at which point half the states release statements saying they find all SCOTUS rulings from this point forward to be tainted and unenforceable in their states. The dems throw out that red meat for fundraising, but they know the blowback would be extreme and would be the first step in rolling back the Marshall decision, which the left cannot afford.

Bar all CA issued CDL drivers; seize their license and their rigs at the border.
You can guarantee they'll clear their docket to hear CA's suit.
And:
That would make these trucking companies hiring illegals howl in rage.
But, the lawsuit was silly--conservatives have to stop running to court like it's some neutral party that will fairly resolve political disputes:
1) the courts are illegitimate and have usurped too much power; these suits accede to and accept that
2) the courts are corrupt and will take every opportunity to rule against limited and conservative governance.
3) suits are just talk. The time for talk is well past.

Let's be clear:
I'm not saying that the next won't be subject to attacks. He will be.
But I'm saying that the attacks just won't retain the same coalition as anti-Trumpism. They'll replay the Trump playbook against Vance or Rubio, and it just won't hit as well.
So, they'll have to shift and pivot into a new kind of attack to appeal to a new coalition. But, they've hollowed out the rest of their coalition overall.
Attacks against the next will feel...tired and exhausted and uninspiring.

The Chief Justice and other Justices can be impeached and convicted (removed) for not taking-up a case, after the fact. Then replacements who swear they will take-up the case can be nominated by POTUS and confirmed by the Senate. This takes time. Would there be enough time for that process between an election and the Constitutionally-mandated date to swear-in a POTUS? Then there is risk of the replacements not fulfilling their promise. If so, wash, rinse, repeat. I guess.

My conspiracy theory isn’t so much of a theory, if you read the policy planning documents and articles published of the 1950s, the path to a globalist society had to do something about the role of established religion.
America was great because Americans were good, by and large. I do believe the spook agencies or similar spent a lot of time and effort destabilizing the black community and the mainstream denominations, to dilute the political effects downstream.
Note well too - Reagan, Thatcher, Pope John Paul were followed (eventually) by Obama, Merkel, Francis, et al. Sort of a tit for tat. And it makes sense from the globalist perspective. You can’t very well have the people believing there is a higher authority than an unelected bureaucrat in Brussels, or the EPA. That just won’t do.

Paxton's impeachment made him more powerful politically because it didn't actually lead to a conviction.
Unless you can guarantee conviction, impeachment just makes the target more powerful politically because they get acquitted of any charges.
Without that guarantee, impeachment is worse than failure theater. It's actually a process that will make the other side stronger.

When I first heard of this non-ruling/dismissal, I was (to the extent still possible) a little shocked.
A power, an obligation, expressly stated in the constitution - unlike so much of what the judiciary and guvamint in general engages in - simply shirked, denied, without explanation.
Turns out judicial failure to exercise its *legitimate* authority is just as pernicious to rule of law and the constitution as the usurpation that's been running wild for decades.

Yeah, that’s what I thought. Maybe 4 or 5 in 200 years? It really ought to be fairly routine, considering some of the jackass rulings over the years. Congress largely abdicated their role long ago, in favor of acting like spectators.
Say, for one example - declaring Americans are on the hook, taxpayers must pay their tax dollars to send millions of illegal aliens to public schools. That’s insane. Worse, it has evolved into an elaborate, multi-billion dollar fraud operation.
And the schools largely suck. I recall our school district mass mailing out expensive full color brochures, positively gushing that “over 80!!” different languages were spoken there. Isn’t that awesome?
Have to go to school for a long time to get that stupid. To actually think that way.

======
Do people think that nationwide swings in the congressional ballot reflect evenly across the nation?
That D+30 districts and R+30 districts will move in the same direction at the same rate because the national environment went from R+3 to D+6 or whatever? That the D+30 district will become D+39 and the R+30 district will become R+21?
Because that's not how it works.
How it works is that the deep blue enclaves will turn out at higher numbers and the deep red enclaves will turn out at slightly lower numbers. It will be uneven.
So, if the national environment does shift 9 points left from 2024 (doubtful, I suspect 6 or so), TX won't shift 9 points to the left. It'll shift like 2-3 points while NY shifts 15.

There is little force behind any of it. If you want to put that under stress you need to make sure you have a solid backing behind you. The left no longer has that solid backing. They hold most of the 20% of the 80/20 issue splits. They've managed to split the billionaire class such that the most innovative and powerful of that group don't buy the left's message anymore.
You cannot make dramatic moves without support. If Florida refused to recognize Cal and Wash CDL's that would work because the people would be behind that move. And there wouldn't be enough political blowback to force Florida to back off.

Somewhere beyond the sea
Somewhere waiting for me
My lover stands on golden sands
And watches the ships that go sailing
Somewhere beyond the sea
She's there watching for me
If I could fly like birds on high
Then straight to her arms, I'd go sailing

Alfred Thompson Briche
Would hang this lovely painting, so like a photograph.
Dallas Museum of Art
Alfred Thompson Bricher’s choice of subject deviated slightly from the Hudson River School’s early mission of capturing the grandeur of untouched American wilderness. Rather, Bricher’s work is characterized by exaggerated coastal seascapes and nautical scenes. He spent the majority of his fifty-year career as a landscape painter in Newburyport, Massachusetts--the source of many of his dramatic water scenes. In this painting, Bricher paints the waves as sleek shelves.In the distance, the peaks of sailboats dot the horizon, indicating human presence amidst the ocean waves. Favoring a horizontal composition, Bricher uses the monumentality of his landscapes to achieve an unrivaled luminosity, here seen in the clouds, whose reflection is mirrored on the seashore’s glossy sand surface. Drawing literary allusions in painting titles was quite common during this time. For his title, Bricher draws on a line from Sir Walter Scott’s The Antiquary of 1816: “Time and tide tarry for no man,” recast in 1843 by Charles Dickens in Martin Chuzzlewit to read, “Time and tide."

Tim Sparks Bought 80+ Pizza Hut Franchises
The person who bought 80 Pizza Hut franchises is Tim Sparks, president of Daland Corporation, a Kansas-based company that now operates nearly 100 Pizza Hut locations across the U.S.
Sparks, who grew up loving Pizza Hut and worked in the chain as a dishwasher and manager in the 1980s, has been leading a major transformation of his portfolio. He’s converting many of the over 80 franchises into “Pizza Hut Classic” retro-style restaurants that recreate the 1980s and 1990s dining experience.

No man is an island.
No trees. No dog. Tiny distant sailboats. Y'call this art?😜
Clouds and waves are nicely done. The sunlit peak gives the scene nice balance. Looks like distant rain on the left. Don't often see that in paintings, but see it often out here in prairieland.
And it's not muddy and dark. Yesterday's work was especially muddy on my laptop. I copied it to my paint program and greatly increased the lightness and contrast and it was much better. On the cell, for some reason, it was more clear and crisp without adjustment. Leaves me wondering what it would look like in real life. In person. Whatever. Good morning.

Her: X is over on A.
I know X isn't on A, but there is a whole process you have to follow so I first look at A and find no X.
Me: It's not there.
Her: No, I know it is at A or B.
See that? I'll have you know, A and B are nowhere related. Not, like the same cabinet just upper or lower shelf. No, completely different locations. So I go look at B. Still no X.
Me: It's not at B either.
Her: No, I saw it there just the other day it has to be there.
At this point the only thing I can do is use my phone and take pictures of A & B with their entire contents arrayed out in front.
Me: See... it's not there
Her: You are just not looking hard enough. If I was there I would have found it already. It is always at A or B sometimes C.

Oh, he's a peach!
A New Jersey plastic surgeon who is the leading fundraiser in the crowded Democratic congressional primary was an associate of terrorist mastermind Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman—the "Blind Sheikh"—and served as a defense witness at the trial that ultimately saw the cleric put away for life, court records show.
Adam Hamawy, running in the Democratic primary to represent New Jersey's 12th Congressional District with Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D., Minn.) endorsement, was a 26-year-old medical student when Abdel-Rahman's lawyers put him on the stand to deny charges that the Blind Sheikh—whose followers carried out the 1993 World Trade Center bombing—had called for the murder of then-Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak.

So A, B, and C are about as far apart as could be in the same house.
A is 17 feet under the house's corner foundation, requires a backhoe, maybe some explosives and requires disturbing at least 3 ancient indian burial grounds.
B is on top the roof's highest ridge and is guarded by pterodactyls. There's no use just fighting them you have to distract them with berries. It's no easy task finding the right berries that pterodactyls like because their diet mostly consists of questing husbands. So this takes a long time.
C,... C is in the deepest bowels of the house, down a twisty labyrinth of tunnels that all look alike and finally a hellmouth. The hellmouth is guarded by an ancient Oni in the form of a monstrously large red beetle. In exchange for allowing you to pass into the hellmouth you have to pledge your immortal soul to the beetle, which, I mean, the beetle is ok really, and you get 4 weeks of vacation, so I say yes, and go in, and of course the hellmouth is thick with balrogs, I have an exterminator come out every 3 months but they can only do so much. And I find X.

Also, primary challengers rarely have decent name recognition which means they just get drowned out.

The New York Times reported on Hamawy's participation in the trial at the time, but dozens of pages of testimony reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon reveal a yearslong relationship between the congressional candidate and the jihadist leader. Front Page Magazine first reported on their connection.
Hamawy and Abdel-Rahman met in 1991 when the Islamist firebrand delivered a lecture at Matawan-Aberdeen Middle School in Cliffwood, N.J. From there, the Egyptian-born Hamawy said, he followed the Blind Sheikh to speaking events at mosques, visited the cleric in his home, and provided him with translation help.
During his testimony, which Hamawy began with a traditional "salam alaykum" greeting to the Blind Sheikh, he described taking a 13-hour car journey with Abdel-Rahman and some of his associates to a conference in Detroit called "Towards a Global Islamic Economy." . . . .Several other speakers at the conference were well-known figures in the world of Islamist terrorism. After Abdel-Rahman spoke, attendees heard from Dr. Ahmad Nofal, a Holocaust denier who has falsely accused Israelis of harvesting the organs of Palestinians.

The Morning Report — 5/ 27/26
Texas Republicans delivered major victories for conservatives Tuesday night, as state Sen. Mayes Middleton defeated Rep. Chip Roy in the Republican runoff for attorney general while Attorney General Ken Paxton ousted longtime Sen. John Cornyn in a closely watched Senate primary. . . .Roy’s defeat marked a significant setback for Washington Republicans who had rallied behind the four-term congressman. Roy had built a national profile as a hardline conservative in Congress and received endorsements from figures including Ted Cruz and members of the House Freedom Caucus. ...Cornyn’s loss represented one of the most significant defeats for a sitting Republican senator in recent years and underscored Trump’s dominance over GOP primary voters.Well, as I stated in contrast to the author of this piece, Roy's record despite the labels and endorsements has been spotty at best. I'll leave it to all our Texas commenters to weigh in as to whether I'm off base or not. Be that as it may, Look at who Ken Paxton is facing off against:
The Texas church where Democrat James Talarico has delivered his radical sermons is pushing radical gender ideology on children, featuring books filled with sexually explicit content and transgender ideology. Talarico, the Democrat nominee for the crucial Senate election in November, attends St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Austin. There, children have access to a library stocked with “banned books” that promote ideas rejected by most Christians, including books that contain descriptions of anal rape, incest, and oral sex, according to a Daily Wire review of its offerings.Oh yes indeed, all you John Cornyn fans, here's your golden opportunity to get on board the Talarico train.
I want to thank Senator John Cornyn for his years representing our state. We don’t agree on everything, but we both still believe in public service. To Senator Cornyn’s supporters: you have a place in our campaign.When I said train, I meant in cattle cars on your way to a gulag to get forcibly sterilized.
I would think Talarico doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell, certainly not with this background. And yes Texas is indeed a deep if not the deepest of red red states. But with the nation now really on a knife edge we can no longer tolerate the business as usual of go-along-to-get-along RINO grifters because since the ascendancy of Obama, the Democrat Party is now openly out to seize absolute power by any and every means necessary. The Trump miracle put the brakes on that and so the freak flags are flying in the breeze as the stolen election of 2020, the political persecutions, assassination attempts, riots, judicial coup, bureaucratic insubrdination, censorship and political violence against any and all voices of opposition have amply demonstrated. Shifting gears now, as CBD and I discussed, that is yammered incessantly about, on the latest episode of the podcast, linked here and in the sidebar as well as on the popular platforms listed below, AI is becoming more and more prevalent. But like every other invention nnd technological development, from the wheel and fire all the way up to nuclear science, it can be used for good or for evil. And speaking of which:
...Wynton Hall, author of Code Red: The Left, the Right, China, and the Race to Control AI talked about OpenAI. Hall said, “OpenAI has now contracted with 400,000 members of teachers’ unions to start to bake into the curriculum…all their tools.”Letting Teachers' unions control AI is like allowing Iran to have nuclear weapons. Which, surprise surprise, we also discussed.
The news that President Trump has taken the unusual step of calling a full Cabinet meeting Wednesday suggests that, among other things, he’s exploring ways to jump-start the maddeningly slow talks with Iran.Of course the problem is Trump's watch will come to an end at noon on January 21 2029. Was the era of Donald Trump a one-off, a speed bump on the road to hell that our nation had or has been on for decades or has President Trump not only slammed on the brakes but has he succeeded in throwing us into reverse and putting America back on track towards sanity? The removal of saboteurs and fools like Massie and now Cornyn is a good sign, but the GOP must be utterly purged as we can see from this abomination of a back-stabbing out of South Carolina. Only time will tell. Have a great day,
The brainstorming is necessary because it is crystal clear that Trump gave peace a chance, a very good chance, but the mullahs aren’t willing to meet his generous terms.
The big question now is whether there is anything more within reason he can do to sweeten the offer, or whether Iran simply has no intention of ever getting to yes.
No doubt there also will be a political dimension to the conversations, in that the war is unpopular at home and growing more so the longer it goes on.
Its effect on rising energy prices and inflation are a major part of the GOP worry that Trump’s party could lose control of both chambers of Congress in November...
Moreover, the stakes in Iran are growing again because even the tenuous cease-fire is coming under severe stress.
The US conducted what it called “self-defense” airstrikes late Monday against two Iranian ships it said were laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz.
The US also said it took out a surface-to-air missile site based at Iran’s primary naval station that was targeting our warplanes.
In response, Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei threatened to strike American military bases elsewhere in the region.
The skirmishing is the latest sign that the mullahs have no intention of voluntarily meeting Trump’s top demand for peace.
For more than a decade, he has been saying the same thing: that Iran will never be allowed to have a nuclear weapon on his watch.

President Trump has cemented his grip on the GOP. But at what cost? In Texas, Ken Paxton clinched the Republican Senate nomination, ousting longtime Sen. John Cornyn after a last-minute Trump endorsement helped to lift the firebrand. Yet Paxton's win could hand Democrats a rare opening to flip the state.

His appeal isn’t supposed to be to them. His appeal is supposed to be two people that are more in the middle. The thought processes, they look at him and they see him as more similar to a Christian Neighbor, who isn’t too much of a zealot.
The hope is all other religious people will vote for Talarico because he is very faith based and they see similar values.
It will be interesting to see which faction wins. A lot of (liberal) people I know moved to Texas in the last 3-4 years so hoping that new younger populace will combine with them and push Talarico on top
IMO it will put an end to the lie that most of the "Christian" voters in the republican pay actually GAF about their faith. My experience had proven to me that morality and following Jesus's teachings do not play into their decisions. They forget Jesus died as a radical.

Standard elitist media over-analytical idiocy and wishful BS. "...lift the firebrand"? Paxton is an incorruptible and unrelenting common-sense conservative in a world gone mad. Translation: he's a "firebrand!!!!" Hide your children! And "Yet [his victory] could hand Democrats a rare opening..." Yes, and yet, an asteroid could strike your house tomorrow, you over-educated dumbf*ck. Every action has the potential to serve as a qualifying "yet," but what does that even mean in this case? That the freak he's running against has a greater chance against Paxton than Cornyn? By that logic, we should never run our most committed and strongest candidates, right? Oh, I see -- that's the logic. We perpetually run RINO patsies for our own good. Got it.

I’m glad Cornyn is out
But I’m most exercised by Trump’s dithering on Iran (I never thought I could write that; dithering is not in his character)…. Stop trying to cut a deal for Pete’s sake! Anything short of ground troops… I’m ready for power plant day and yes destroy Kharg island facilities with air strikes. No more footsie please. And also how about some more decapitation strikes; keep killing their leaders until the next man up is sufficiently motivated to surrender. Honestly this is more important than the midterms so forget politics

A lot of people in this state are not going to have the stomach for Jimmy the Creep's brand of Christianity.

First, because the people who keep advocating for blowing up Iran never seem to say what comes next. As we have seen over and over and over in the ME that is a very bad plan. Look what happened in Iraq. Look what happened in Libya. Look what happened in Syria. There will always be a day after the war and if the right steps aren't done to win the peace we will be stuck in another protracted war in the ME.
And if you look what Trump is doing he is demanding our "friends" in the ME like SA and Qatar join the Abraham Accords to unite the region in a common purpose that isn't killing infidels for a change. Let them help with the rebuild and keep a closer eye on Iran.
Finally, negotiations take time to get right. Lots of people whose biggest negotiation in life was buying a car keep insisting this go faster. Why? Time is on Trump's side not the mullahs. Trump's pressure is political. The mullahs is existence. The most pressure is on them and the longer they take the worse shape they are in.
Let Trump do his thing. Worst case the deal falls apart and then we bomb. But that is a break glass scenario not the first choice.

The past few years have cut out a large portion of establishment GOP power while seeing an influx of outsiders who, in the aggregate, want Texas to be as Texas as the rest of the country thinks Texas is. Yes, there are Austin progressives from LA, but they are obviously the tiny minority of the immigrants (re: all the statewide elections since 201

Still, all state governments are more corrupt than we can imagine, and the state capitol building is probably more ugly people orgies and child sacrifice and boring real estate corruption than conservative governance, but at least they feel the need to hide it.

Asking KSA and Qatar to join Abraham Accords is a desperation move, not planned, not well-received, and not likely to succeed.
Time is fleeting and every day this drags out the likelihood of failure and defeat only grows. Kinetic action should not have stopped. No reason they cannot negotiate surrender during continuing hostilities.

Another path is to target, one by one, the Iranian power plants feeding Tehran. Every day they refuse to negotiate, a wave of drones knock a plant out.

Iran's position continues to weaken. Incrementally, yes. And concurrently with higher-than-we-like gas prices, yes. But taking Iran off the board is an earthshaking realignment.

Churchill, from his vast lived experience, wrote:
"Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events."

Maybe. It's difficult to determine just how bad things are in Iran right now because there is very little actual on the ground reporting. But we do know they are losing 100s of millions a day on the one product that overwhelmingly drives their economy, oil.
We also know they are experiencing Zimbabwe type inflation and food has got to be getting scarce. Tehran had a huge problem with water before the war started, I don't see how it could've gotten better since.
Iran is a tough nut to crack. We all know they are run by religious freaks who don't tell the truth and don't act rationally. If a president had stepped up years ago to do the right thing this problem could have been dealt with then. We all want this over but I want it done right so we aren't dealing with it again in a couple years and I don't want yet another endless occupation of a ME country.

I think it is probable that Iran was run more or less as a military dictatorship masked by Khameini and the clerics for years now--since the Green Revolt. The IRGC basically directed the economy with a large share of owning businesses in Iran and was about the only means of social mobility in an economy ruined by excessive military spending at home and terror and influence operations abroad.
The IRGC avoided outright conflict but by bringing in Iraqis, Lebanese, etc. as proxy regime forces to oppress the people, indicates that they don't think their own troops will do it.
Where does that leave the US? Pretty clear that any restart or attempts to get the nuclear material will result in strikes. Unclear about their missile program but probably there new production has been hit hard by strikes. We haven't destroyed infrastructure yet--Kharg Island destruction would make exports impossible for awhile, plus bridges, railways, power plants could also be hit. And we can and still will have control over the taps of Iranian oil.

I read the consumer sentiment and it is actually the reverse. Democrats were stable in sentiment as they think the sky is falling when Trump got back in office. It is independents and Republicans upset at high gas prices.
To some extent, I think that is the only weapon Iran has left--to cause pain and disruption by keeping the Persian Gulf shut from exports to the oil users.
For the US, we are in the curious position of actually not depending on the Gulf anymore for oil and even high prices results in US income staying at home compared to previous oil shocks which in turn is going to get plowed into more drilling, etc.

Many of you are fortunate enough to live in deep red areas or at least swing areas where you had a chance of winning elections. I've spent all my life behind enemy lines and I know my vote really won't matter. I vote anyway because fuck 'em but a lot of people don't vote because they know it's pointless.
Even in red areas like Texas people get conditioned to think a certain way. Multi-term incumbent senators don't lose their primary. It's bigfoot sighting territory. Voters get in line.
The sway Trump now has over the Republican Party is changing political calculations. We are demanding results not talk. The polling industry has no clue about how to measure this new world. Ask Rich Baris who completely missed the Massie implosion.

China indeed. J.J. linked an article from Breitbart up above under Foreign Affairs about Rubio's Quad Security meeting. There's also a brief summary on X from Epoch Times that's a very short but very informative and satisfying read. Trump is the most remarkable and consequential (in a good way) president in modern times.
"Within 48 hours of the leak that exposed Xi Jinping's failed ambush on President Trump, four democracies launched a powerful, synchronized counter-offensive aimed squarely at Beijing's coercion campaign."

Success is preventing Iran from having nukes and terrorizing the Gulf. Both are accomplished without boots on the ground by naval and air force power.
Regime change is not--we don't have the human intel information and thus rely on Israel for on ground information. Taking out missile bases and nuke sites, that can be done via sat and aerial intel.
So we simply cannot assume regime change will occur; it may occur or may not for a time. I know enough of the literature in that field to figure out most people are blithering idiots on the subject and the real experts (not on TV or podcasts) aren't talking.
So diplomacy and military strikes--with infrastructure strikes as the big club because it will end the ability of Iran to pay its bills and rebuild.

Okay… this might be one of the most exciting restaurant comebacks I’ve seen in a while.
Pizza Hut is officially bringing back the CLASSIC dine-in experience at select locations across the country… and Texas has several of them!
We’re talking:
🔺 The iconic red roof buildings
🥤 Red plastic cups
🟥 Red-checkered tablecloths
💡 Tiffany-style lamps
🎮 Arcade games
🥗 Salad bars
🍕 That classic Pizza Hut feeling a whole generation grew up with
Honestly, this is the Pizza Hut I remember as a kid. Friday nights, arcade machines, personal pan pizzas, and those unforgettable red cups that somehow made the soda taste better.
Texas has always had a strong Pizza Hut connection too… the company’s longtime headquarters were in Dallas, and some of these classic-style locations are still hanging on around the state. Hopefully we see even more Texas locations restored soon.

This is what pollsters and talking heads don't get. They fall back on the lazy and self-affirming idiocy that we are all in a cult of Trump. They are wrong.
Trump is the first President we've had in a very long time that does what we want not what DC wants. And he fights for us. That's all we ask for. Be our voice and do the things that will help us voters live our lives better.
For once it's not about settling for the least worst POS who will always give us crumbs instead of the whole loaf. Trump delivers. Surprisingly, voters respond enthusiastically to that.

That's fine and all, but what I think people will REALLY appreciate is a return to quality food. If the pizza is good (or at least, good enough), then the ambience will only enhance that experience.

That may be unknowable unless and until either US or the Iranians get down to that level to dig it out. But the enriched uranium does not simply evaporate as it is heavier than air. It is more like it would precipitate in place rather than spread everywhere.
That may be why we fear a dirty bomb usage for any residue from casks as I think it would have to be somehow cleansed and refined again from the surrounding rubble material in that case to make a nuke weapon.

It might be fear. I think elections have been corrupted for some time and many sitting senators have benefited from that corruption. It is also why GOP campaign consultants have pretty much concentrated on negative ads, mailers, etc. to drive down turnout rather than telling people what they are going to do. Now the Democrat campaigns are emulating that.
Potemkin elections require low turnout, divisive politics, using money as a bribe to groups and individuals to keep the charade going. Big turnout threatens to overturn that model and make it unsustainable.

Brainwashing in public schools. For decades.
We've already lived the replay of the "it takes a village" approach from the Hilary Clinton era (ruining women's independence; the one income woes, and lack of community support, etc.).
A majority of people are now "children" until at least 26 (thanks to O & Congress), and almost everyone of them wants to be on the (non-profit, foundation, governmental) dole and live their dreams.
Its been an psyop in the United States for decades; all as the population is being steadily increased to top out at around 400 million.
imo, of course.

It's a tough sell for some women to go to work just like their husbands, and then come home and deal with mealtime, feeding/washing/putting to bed their children while hubby plays video games or otherwise relaxing.

- Now it's TSMC's turn to face angry workers. (Tom's Hardware)
A bit of an own goal this time around. TSMC staff have traditionally been paid a bonus based on corporate profits, but the company has been planning to cut the percentage paid to staff in order to fund capital expansion. I don't think anyone is hurting - like many other chipmakers the company is making record profits, so we're talking a reduced share of a much larger pie - but Taiwanese workers will be looking at the huge bonuses won by their counterparts in South Korea. And judging.
- The CTO of Uber pointed out the obvious: There is no link between AI token spend and shipping working software. (Tom's Hardware)
Except maybe an inverse one.

Quack.
- Nvidia's Vera server CPU has been benchmarked and it's not Earth-shaking but it's perfectly decent. (Phoronix)
I'm a bit confused about the high bandwidth numbers, because the tests seem to exceed the theoretical bandwidth of the system, but I'm not going to worry too much since nobody's going to be able to buy one anyway.

I've just recharged my Magic Mouse--which you cannot use while it's plugged in to charge (not wirelessly)--and your description is cracking me up as an excellent analogy. My mouse during recharging was like a turtle on its back. Fast recharge, tho.

We had a *very* mild winter, with practically zero snowfall and little rain. Spring was/is a bit dry, though not completely.
Hubby is doing okay so far, now in nursing home. I fear he's declining... we've already had *years more* than originally predicted, so cannot really complain. (but I do anyway)

The stock mouse that came with my inherited iMac began to give me troubles. Turned out I already had a standard black one that takes batteries; works fine. I have to be sure to turn it off (along with my chargeable, lit-up keyboard) when I finish with the computer, though.

Big black Stirling, age four, snagged his first mouse a little while ago. I'd seen him staking out the area around my nightstand, and then one night, staring intently at his litter box. I shifted the box -- and a gray mouse shot out and zipped under the bathroom door! I didn't see it again . . . until the next day, when I spotted something on the bedroom floor I thought was one of their toys. Uh, no. I scooped up the little corpse in the dustpan and disposed of it outside. (Oddly, it was gone an hour later.) The mouse did not look even partly mutilated, so Stirling didn't try eating any of it.
I give him credit for the kill because he was the one stalking it. Dagny was not there with him. She'll hunt other things, and plays with her toys as if chasing down a kill, but she wasn't in on this.

I don't think I've seen skunks or doves here. Early one morning, exercising on the wide avenue out back, I saw something that might have been a fox or a coyote; I couldn't tell at a distance in the dim light. We do have opossums. And Miss Linda and I saw a raccoon in a tree near the (long-closed) pool one cool afternoon years ago.
Now and then a crane will show up, stalking along the sidewalk or street with that deliberate pace of theirs, head bobbing as it goes.

To fix this, Fender sued, in a German or an EU court over copyright infringement, some 4th rate Chicom guitar maker that was making spot on perfect Strat copies. The Chicoms never showed up because they are Chicoms thus handing Fender an enforceable default judgment. Genuis!
And just like that Fender fired up the copy machine and started sending out cease and desist letters to every guitar maker on the planet that they not only need to quit infringing on Fender's copyright but recall and destroy every offending instruments these companies sold in Europe. It is not clear that there is time limit on how far Fender can look backwards.
Remarkably, this is considered controversial by every guitar maker on the planet not named Fender.

----- My once great home state can't get the smaller, single span Key Bridge rebuilt - but sure, let's go ahead and plan for a new Chesapeake Bay Bridge. Much longer and two spans. Great idea! When will a new Chesapeake Bay Bridge arrive?
Despite the dreary weather this Memorial Day weekend, the Chesapeake Bay Bridge has been very congested with holiday traffic at times – especially after a crash at the start of the eastbound span Friday morning – leaving some drivers wondering when relief will finally come for the aging bridge.I'm going to start some kind of non-profit which specializes in some obscure thing that has to be done whenever there is a bridge design / build. Need to get me a piece of that sweet state government largess! ----- On to a construction project that is actually making progress Stadium construction begins at White House for UFC Freedom 250
State officials are planning to replace the current bridge with two wider, safer spans, but it’s going to take a while and depend on funding. After studying alternatives such as building new bridges elsewhere, in December 2025, the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) board voted unanimously on a plan that would lead to two new four-lane bridge spans (both with shoulders this time!) that would be built next to the current two spans. The old spans would be torn down.
Construction is underway at the White House to build a temporary structure for next month's Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fight. President Donald Trump is hosting the UFC Freedom 250 event on the South Lawn on Sunday, June 14, which will mark Flag Day, the day Congress approved the design of a national flag, and the president's 80th birthday. Tickets are not listed for the 8 p.m. event, which will be available to watch on Paramount+, according to the UFC Freedom 250 website. Crews have already started assembling the semi-circular structure on the lawn just behind the octagon and stands for people to watch. The structure was made in Pennsylvania and shipped to D.C. Dana White, the CEO of the UFC, said he plans to keep the White House the backdrop for every fight.This should be a really kewl event! ----- 1976 was a great year for albums. Check out this Wikipedia page to see for yourself Also worth checking out - All 11 No. 1 Albums of 1976 Ranked Worst to Best from ultimateclassicrock.com Spoiler alert - they got #1 wrong.

There is a place in Burnet called Gude’s that has something they call boudin kolaches. They are amazing. I stop there every time I go cross country to I10.
Posted by: Stephen Price Blair at May 26, 2026
Y’all know what boudin is, though, right? The issue is it’s in a kolaches? Not the boudin part?

Senator John Cornyn invokes a Theodore Roosevelt quote from 1910 during his concession speech — after suffering a devastating primary loss to Ken Paxton.
CORNYN: “Tonight, I’m reminded of something Teddy Roosevelt said in 1910.”
“He said, it’s not the critic that counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better.”
“The credit belongs to the man who’s actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and blood and sweat, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again.”

“He said, it’s not the critic that counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better.”
“The credit belongs to the man who’s actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and blood and sweat, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again.”
Right, you weren't even *in* the arena douchebag. You were over in the enemy camp drinking their booze and cutting deals. Your "err" is thinking you wouldn't be tossed out on your silly ass for your treachery, dickhead.

NONE of his scary predictions have come true.
This is the single most powerful answer to global warming.
We have had 12 years to save the world for 50 years and yet we are still here.
Of course the irony is with a bunch of lefty oligarchs wanting data centers now which will require incredible amounts of energy you can see them pulling their money out of "Fossil Fuels are going to kill us!" to "Hey don't you want to be able to see your favorite celeb nekkid for a low low price?!?"

What are the odds he creates a new version, vs. editing the old one with new dates of destruction?
I think he lets an AI edit the dates, whether on-screen, spoken, or in the subtitles, and publishes it as a new Blu-Ray release at $79.99.

The one I planted last year (pot, but gets near all day direct sun) is STILL alive. Considering the winter we had: multiple single digit temps, a couple ice storms, snow- i did not expect it to survive. I have never had one survive through the winter before. Maybe it was the direct sun.
Its supposed to be a Coral Knockout. Had red and yellow blossoms when it first put them out but has settled into a pink similar to the one you linked. Nastiest thorns on any rose bush I have ever grown too. Thinnest, sharpest little bastards.

South Padre is in Cameron County. Brownsville and Elon's Starbase is there. Kenedy County is one county up. There isn't much there. Only a few hundred people. It is coastal prairie. Cornyn may as well boast that he won Loving County. Perhaps he did. But there are ~50 people in the county. Not a bellweather.

The bottom fell out again this afternoon, another 2.3" of rain. I'm getting a lot more here than GSP, but other spots have gotten even more. Pushing 10" for the month.
I was well over 7" behind normal for the year. After this, I'm just maybe 1.2" behind. Previously, the ground was soaking it up as fast at came down, but today, I got some runoff. It's still soaking it in, but it's getting close to saturated. So, it needs to hold off.

Now for something different: I stand corrected. I said earlier that I thought the subpoena of Hasan Piker was consequential, because he has alpha physiognomy, and it's good strategy to take your enemy's natural leaders out first (as they did with Charlie Kirk). However, I had never really watched him, only seen stills, and Bridget Phetasy has called him out as having "fat kid energy." Women have a natural poseur detector, so I'll take her word for it.

We cannot just focus on Earth, because there are irreducible external (eg massive meteor) and internal (eg global nuclear war) cataclysmic risks.
The Moon is faster to make self-growing, but is more susceptible to problems on Earth. Mars will take longer to make self-growing, because it is so hard to reach, but is more secure from Earth disasters for that same reason.
Both the Moon and Mars should have self-growing civilizations. Making this happen is the prime directive of SpaceX

I agree with Elon there. I want Moon and Mars (and other) colonies. However, there's one hell of a big problem. Gravity significantly different from 1g earth gravity. And the next one is radiation.
To have a colony, you're going to have to make babies. And it doesn't look too good for that in Mars or Moon gravity.
Right now, the Chicoms are doing a little "artificial embryo" experiment on their space station, to see how embryos would develop in zero-g. It's not real embryos, but some stem-cell mimic of some kind. NASA and some of the others have done animal embryo experiments with mixed results.
This is likely going to be a Big Problem.

Humans are designed to procreate. The radiation and negative effects of less gravity I believe Musk or some competition will come up with solutions.

A lot of people tend to just handwave this gravity issue. "We'll adapt". Well, I don't know about that at all. Could we adapt to say a temperature of 200F? No likely. And gravity different from 1g may be about as bad as that. 1g has been baked in the cake for ever biological process on earth. It's there everywhere, ever process had developed on that 1g acceleration.
Results of what microgravity does to a fully grown human body are quite a problem. Hell, the immune system doesn't even function properly, the ability to fight infections is greatly reduced. It's everywhere in all sorts of wide ranging processes.
We assume there is some tolerance 1g +/- x. The question is just how small is 'x'? It may be very small indeed. Nobody knows this yet by a long shot.

This has actually been thought about, and believe it or not, while it's still beyond our engineering at this point, it's not that wild. One idea is to place a large magnetic dipole contraption, some superconducting coil at the Sun-Mars L1 point. This would create a magnetotail around Mars and deflect a lot of the radiation. I forget what the numbers are for how strong a field it would have to be, but it's not something laughably impossible.

Paxton Retires Arrogant Liberal GOPer John Cornyn In Absolute Drubbing
I was wondering why no one made a call given such a lopsided vote total. It's because voting was still going on in the western (Mountain time) corner of the state.
The moment the clock struck 8pm Central, they called it. Update: Per Decision Desk, with 52% reporting, Paxton is absolutely curb-stomping Cornyn 62% to 37%. We're getting to the point where, in order to win, Cornyn would have to win 80% of the outstanding vote. That's not going to happen, obviously. NBC: Paxton is "absolutely trouncing" Cornyn. Decision Desk: Paxton is favored to win.Even before the endorsement, Paxton led in runoff polling, though Cornyn was not far behind until the days leading up to Trump's announcement. Yet the most recent polling in the race -- including surveys conducted before the endorsement -- found Paxton leading by at least 10 percentage points. In Decision Desk HQ's polling average, Paxton leads Cornyn by 15 points, 54%-39%.
Cornyn's only message is "vote for me or Texans will suddenly go crazy and vote for the gay fake preacher.
Cornyn's primary race against challenger Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton finally comes to a head in today's runoff election. After what has been a particularly bruising primary, Cornyn expressed his worry that Republicans stand to lose a seat that would be devastating for the party's hopes of retaining a majority in the upper chamber. Speaking with Fox News Digital ahead of Election Day, Cornyn touted Texas as "the most conservatively governed state in the country," making it a "land of opportunity and where the American dream is still very much alive." "But I think all of that's at risk, depending on how this primary runoff turns out, because I think Ken Paxton's flaws and the baggage he brings to the general election are going to be exploited up to the fullest by James Talarico and by Democrats," he said. Whoever emerges Tuesday night will have to face state Rep. James Talarico, a Democratic rising star who many in the party believe has broad enough appeal to finally flip the state for the first time in over two decades. Cornyn expressed worry about Talarico's fundraising abilities, citing the $27 million he raised in the first quarter of the year. He asserted that if Paxton wins, "there will be a tsunami of money coming into the state from outside." He also asserted that "it's not only that Senate seat he [Paxton] puts at risk, it's also all the down-ballot races, state legislative races, local races, like the judges and the like." "We haven't elected a Democrat in statewide office since 1994 in Texas," he said. "President Trump is not running, so the Senate race will be at the top, and I believe that I will be in a better position to help provide a significant margin, a winning margin, not only in my case, but also to help everybody down ballot." "I don't think the attorney general can do that because of the significant baggage he brings into the race, which jeopardizes success from the top to the bottom," he said. Paxton has faced a slew of scandals and legal problems that have battered him over the past decade. In 2023, the Texas House of Representatives voted to impeach Paxton, but he was eventually acquitted of all charges by the state Senate.Should we really be worried that if Texas Republicans nominate the conservative MAGA AG Ken Paxton, Texas Republicans will suddenly flip and vote for James Talarico in the general? I find that claim dubious.

The 2022 Cornyn-Biden Gun Control Package
In 2022, Cornyn teamed up with President Joe Biden and Senator Chris Murphy to pass S.2938 — the largest federal gun control package in over 30 years.
Cornyn’s bill didn’t just tinker around the edges. It funded and expanded “Red Flag” Gun Confiscation across the country, using $750 million in taxpayer dollars to bankroll laws that allow the government to seize firearms without due process.
It empowered Biden’s ATF to crack down on private gun sales by redefining what it means to be a “gun dealer” — something the National Association for Gun Rights warned Cornyn about repeatedly.
It created a lifetime gun ban for many young Americans through a new federal registration scheme, and it introduced a brand-new gun ban targeting anyone who has had a “bad date,” opening the door to disarmament based on vague, unsubstantiated accusations.

They're not in the Bible of course. (And the Apocalypse sucks and shouldn't be in it; but the didache is awesome.)
But then the Gospel of Thomas isn't in the Bible either, because it sucks too and Talarico cites from that one.

He's a fucking bizarro fake Christian dude from Austin with a Presbyterian theology degree from fucking Austin who has some fucking weird ideas about God and Jesus. And he thinks us rubes in the sticks should be all forgiving because Mary could have aborted Jesus. And there are multiple genders. And there should be a fucking welcome mat at the fucking border.

I don't think they can unless they voted in the R primary. Texas has open primaries -- you can vote in whichever party's primary you want -- but I'm reasonably sure that you can only vote in a party's runoff if you're recorded as having voting in that party's primary. I stand to be corrected if I'm wrong about that.

2 Peter, Chapter 2:
17 These people are as useless as dried-up springs or as mist blown away by the wind. They are doomed to blackest darkness. 18 They brag about themselves with empty, foolish boasting. With an appeal to twisted sexual desires, they lure back into sin those who have barely escaped from a lifestyle of deception. 19 They promise freedom, but they themselves are slaves of sin and corruption. For you are a slave to whatever controls you. 20 And when people escape from the wickedness of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and then get tangled up and enslaved by sin again, they are worse off than before. 21 It would be better if they had never known the way to righteousness than to know it and then reject the command they were given to live a holy life. 22 They prove the truth of this proverb: “A dog returns to its vomit.” And another says, “A washed pig returns to the mud.”

Republican primary voters in Texas are fucking psychos. Do yourself a favor and look at the nonbinding resolutions those freaks put on their primary ballots. In other words, Cornyn is history.
Coryn will lose, will be interesting to see by how much. I think it will be a significant margin. Runoff emojis made me laugh, that was a good one 😂.
Agree. Coryn’s “identity” is a Trump cultist. That’s it. Now that daddy Trump has spoken out against him the 🐑 will fall in line. A fitting end to a truly pathetic man.
Paxton nearly was impreached and removed from office by Texas republicans. How the fuck the voters support him in any way is so black pilling. He literally would be the worst person to give more power to.

Interesting.
Too lazy to get the precise stats, but unseating incumbents in primaries, especially senators, has not happened much in recent history.
Plus Massie gone. Another incumbent. Some small signs of life in a political system that's been largely dead for ages. And below the presidential level, where Trump is an extraordinary outlier, historically.

Posted by: Biff Pocoroba at May 26, 2026 06:09 PM (XvL8K)
Sure, but you need to ask, why 13 months? Because that's the shortest they could make it sound, going from the first checkup to the third. (Which means he's been putting them off a little, more like 6.5-month checkups, presumably because he's so busy.) So, it isn't a random 13-month period; they're specifically trying to confuse people.

Speaking of which, Marco announced State will start reforming the Foreign Service. Didn't even bother to check if that included hiring process, which was f**ked up back in the 80s and surely played a role in producing a workforce that perfectly reflected the pathetic degraded "educated" cohorts of the subsequent decades.

First thing that needs to happen is for Congress to pass a separate bill saying that States MUST give voter roll information to the Feds, or they can't ensure the Vote for Federal Elections.
This crap where Judges are telling the Feds they can't LOOK at voter rolls? For FEDERAL Elections? Wow.

LMAO...just a day before Massie has his posterior handed to him, Rove was out there saying that the results of that election will show Trump where the real republicans are right now. Two days later, Rove was saying that Massies comments on Israel were borderline antisemitic. In reference to Cornyn, he didn't say much of anything other than Trump's endorsement of Paxton might hurt Paxton more than Cornyn. And, Cornyn is still getting support from Rick Perry and Phil Graham... There are very obviously two GOP's in Texas....the Bush, Rove, Cornyn, Perry primadonnas....and the other ones.

A decision made inside one of California’s most recognizable agricultural companies has sparked a debate far larger than the closure of a single factory.
For more than a century, a cooperative built by a handful of almond growers helped transform California into the center of the global almond industry, creating generations of jobs, pioneering manufacturing technologies, and exporting products around the world.
Now, the announcement that its historic Sacramento facility will shut down has ignited questions about rising operating costs, business competitiveness, taxation, regulation, and whether California can continue retaining the companies that helped build its economy.
Supporters argue the move is a necessary business decision driven by efficiency, while critics see it as another warning sign in a growing pattern of corporate departures and economic strain.

I know nothing about the winner, who will almost certainly walk away with it in November, but I was So. Tired. of Green's histrionic antics. I'm going to go for a walk, look at all the little ducklings in the retaining pond, and just cherish this moment.

For my entire life (yes, I've been politically aware since I could talk), the Iowa GOP has been useless for conservatives. They are the reason why I don't want the 17th Amendment repealed. Because I live in an area that the Iowa GOP doesn't want to admit exists: the extremely conservative western third of the state. Randy Feenstra, our congressman, is running for governor, but I want him in DC, not Des Moines.

I was hoping The Bulwark would have some savory salt to mine, but they're kind of celebrating? They think Cornyn sold out his principles to be a Trump today, so he deserves to lose and expose the deep rift/civil war in the Republican party, or something.

This is not about abortion, it is about God's foreknowledge. Even before he was conceived, God knew.
"Be fruitful and multiply" ... I prefer that admonition.
But the first verse about when man becomes a living soul ... "KJV And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Gen 2:7
That says nothing about abortion, but there are a couple (I think) accounts where if a man caused a woman to lose her child he was fined, but whatever harm he caused to the woman, it was "an eye for an eye" type judgement.
I know someone here has said "no, that was only if it was an accidental death" (or some such), but I have not seen that in the actual text. But abortion is still wrong, even if "Biblically" it is not the same as murder. imo opinion as "not a Bible scholar". heh

The leader race was Thune, Rick Scott, and Cornyn because McConnell bowed out. If I recall, that was his second time running for leader, and has around a dozen senators who will support him. Just my opinion, but I think he wants to be leader for the prestige, and has no desire to start lower down the leadership ladder and work his way up.

A woman in Nebraska was injured after a dog accidentally discharged a shotgun while inside a vehicle near a traffic light, authorities said. The incident reportedly occurred on Saturday after the dog stepped on its owner’s shotgun. According to reports, the Scottsbluff Police Department was informed about the incident while the victim was rushed to a nearby medical facility.

I spent a lot of time in food quality. Any of a few I could name were worse than a paper mill.
The smell that hits you when you open a unrefrigerated trailer of raw potatoes in August is pretty bad. Especially when they are liquidating from the putrefaction.
But, the absolute worst. Central Valley of California for the annual tomato harvest. They send the tomatoes from the trucks by washing them into troughs that, like a log ride, carry them along to the processing facility. Once there, they are waterfalled down to a tank for a final rough wash. There is a ton of vapor in the air to carry the smell. It is unforgettable. Just transcendently nasty.

The next (D) Pres it will be 53% of the voters deciding what 47% pay.
I hope there is a year when just 5% of the 47% say fuck it.

Now that is damned interesting. The problem with red dwarf stars for habitable zone planets is they are very prone to flares and outbursts. And being so dim, the habitable zone is very close in, meaning any planet there could get zapped by sterilizing flares all the time.
K and G are the best bets, but the argue about which of those is truly the best.

Quick Hits
Note: I'm going to post the Cafe at 7 so I can post a Texas primary thread at 8.
The fake-Republican South Carolina Dixiecrats have again blocked a new congressional map, in order to save the seat of nonstop racebaiter and fellow Democrat James Clyburn. They say they're doing this for "states rights" or some cuck mumblemouth bullshit. NBC:Speaking of ugly grifters who are going to lose their phony-baloney jobs: Debbie Wasserman-Schultz. Noted African American Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is such a fervent supporter of blacks getting to elect the black leftwingers they like that she's running for a seat previously drawn to guarantee black representation. Florida Democrats wrong a Strongly Worded Letter condemning Debbie's psychopathic need for power.
The Republican-led South Carolina Senate on Tuesday voted against a measure to advance a new congressional map, ending the redistricting effort in the state for now. The failed vote was a surprise rejection of President Donald Trump, who had urged lawmakers to pass a redrawn map that eliminated the state's single majority-Black district, represented by longtime Democratic Rep. James Clyburn. The South Carolina House approved the map last week in hopes of putting it into place for this year's midterm elections. As part of the effort, lawmakers also sought to set another primary election for the affected districts in August. But after early voting began on Tuesday for the previously scheduled June primary, some Republicans changed their tune, arguing it was too late to enact new district lines. "Neither my conscience nor my common sense will allow me to stop an election that is already underway," said Republican state Sen. Richard Cash, a Republican who changed his vote due to timing.
Almost all of Florida's elected Democratic National Committee members are condemning Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz's decision to run for reelection in a district previously drawn to ensure Black voters' representation but targeted for redistricting by Gov. Ron DeSantis this year. "Our party cannot credibly denounce the dismantling of Black political power by Republicans while treating one of Florida's few remaining majority-Black districts as a political opportunity for an incumbent seeking a safer seat," a group of 10 elected Florida DNC members wrote in a statement released Tuesday. ... Wasserman Schultz, in Congress for more than 20 years, chose to run in a safe blue seat where a Democrat is all but guaranteed to win in the general election, instead of in one of the surrounding districts, newly drawn to favor Republicans.It's almost as if these districts were drawn to secure partisan advantage, not racial advantage.
Wasserman Schultz lives in Florida's new 22nd District, which stretches from Coral Springs to Marco Island. Her previous voters were split five ways in Florida's new voting maps, but only a small portion of them were drawn into the 20th District. Critics say she chose to take her $2.5 million war chest to an easier Democratic-leaning district to ensure her own political power. "We cannot claim to defend voting rights, racial justice, and representation while undermining Black political power when it becomes politically convenient," the Florida DNC members wrote.I wonder what she'll do when she gets her fat droopy ass kicked to the curb. Maybe she'll go into modeling.

Far-left political influencer Hasan Piker identified American Marxist tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham as a major financier behind a network of pro-communist U.S. nonprofits engaged in "political advocacy" and "a lot of political movements," marking the first public acknowledgment from a figure inside the far-left network that organizations in the Singham network are operating with an explicitly political agenda. The comments are significant because congressional investigators and watchdog groups have long argued that nonprofits connected to Singham are functioning as overt political operations while enjoying tax-exempt charitable status. Critics argue such activity may violate nonprofit tax laws, which place strict limits on the amount of political activity charities can conduct. As Fox News Digital reported exclusively on Saturday, Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control issued an administrative subpoena to Piker and far-left CodePink co-founder Susan Medea Benjamin for possibly violating sanctions against doing business with the Communist Party of Cuba when they traveled to the island nation in March for an ideologically-charged transnational convergence of communists in an international "convoy." Piker and Benjamin haven't responded to requests for comment, but they have publicly defended their trips to March as "humanitarian" missions to help the people of Cuba. At about 37 minutes in a six-hour livestream on Monday, headlined, "FEDS ARE AFTER ME," punctuated with two cursing emojis, Piker stunned listeners knowledgeable about the intricacies of far-left networks by saying that he believes federal investigators are ultimately targeting Singham and the organizations he supports, including CodePink and the self-declared communist organizations ANSWER Coalition and Party for Socialism and Liberation, for the "political" work they do. Together, these groups and others in the Singham network have organized, coordinated and staffed most of the divisive anti-U.S. street protests the nation has seen over the past decade. Party for Socialism and Liberation is called "PSL" by far-left activists. "I think that ultimately the target is probably Singham and his operation from PSL to ANSWER Coalition to CodePink -- like anything that he has ever financed," Piker said during the stream.Admitting that his Cuba trip was funded by the hostile communist foreign government may expose him to legal jeopardy:
Old clip of Hasan Piker saying the Cuban government facilitated the infrastructure for him to stream from the country, effectively providing a basis to arrest Piker as a foreign agent.

Far-left political influencer Hasan Piker identified American Marxist tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham as a major financier behind a network of pro-communist U.S. nonprofits engaged in "political advocacy" and "a lot of political movements," marking the first public acknowledgment from a figure inside the far-left network that organizations in the Singham network are operating with an explicitly political agenda.

Piker's owners aren't going to be too happy about that. Nor about the possibility that this spoiled weakling may be pressured to make a deal.

They're out there yelling "you can't double-stamp a triple-stamp, Harry! You can't double-stamp a triple-stamp!"
They're saying the SCOTUS can't invoke the Purcell Principle to overturn the judges ruling because the judges invoke the Purcell Principle first.
Forgetting that the SCOTUS just said (I forget the case) something like "when the lower court applies the rule wrongly, we're not required to follow them."

Well, I did my remote video walk-through of this Indiana house I'm interested in. Everything looks great. A railing needs to be tightened; two walls need repainting to my taste; and the carpet has to be removed to reveal the hardwood floors. (Yes, I'll be ordering a thorough inspection.) So I screwed my courage to the sticking place and told my agent, "Put in the offer." They have until 6 pm my time tomorrow to accept or decline.
I'm nervous, of course. I've never done this before. But as a certain 12-Step program puts it, "Feel the fear and do it anyway"!

Weird things can happen with your eyes. I recently had my 4th cataract eye surgery and I could see the doctor messing in my eye even after the nerve block. I said....hey doc I can see you poking around in there is that normal? because I couldn't see a thing when you did the other eye. He said it can happen but it's very rare. Didn't really bother me but it was a bit weird.

They interviewed Tom Stafford, the Apollo astronaut when he was in his 90s and he was still sharp as a tack and talking extemporaneously about technical issues.
Biden was a complete wreck and everyone knew it.
He was just a placeholder, a cutout, and nobody cared too much what he thought about anything, although they probably had to accede to his demands now and then.
His “resignation” was interesting to watch. I’m quite certain there was some sort of palace intrigue. It was a Hail Mary, but they had to try something.

I didn't watch Tucker's speech, but this tactic of ditching out on your bills is a whole theme of "fleeing" Trump's America. At the 3-month countdown, stop making your car and rent payments, run up every kind of bill you can, get credit cards and get as much cash out of them as possible, tale out personal loans, bank loans, sell your stuff, and split the country owing everyone.

1.) Trump deploys his cadre of ambitious young officers to arrest every Democrat in DC in 3am raids
2.) Iron collars and manacles all around... "Look under your chairs! YOU get a collar, Chuck! And YOU get a collar, Alexandria! EVERYONE GETS A COLLAR!!!"
3.) On Arch Ribbon-Cutting Day, the collars will be chained together, and the vanquished will be ceremonially marched beneath his massive yoke, and run a gauntlet of knouters on the far side.
4.) As a surprise, he also unveils the secret addendum to the arch project: a 10:1 scale replica of Rome's Tullianum, replete with a contingent of UFC fighters to perform their ritual strangulations.
5.) Big, beautiful BBQ with Ted Nugent performing "Stranglehold" for his throng of adoring supporters.

Mostly true, but if you count (for instance) from the time Trump came into office (January), and he had his first check up after three months (April), then another after six months (October), then a third in six more months (April), THEN it would be only TWO, in (those) thirteen months.
But I don't care enough about the details to check what the dates were. Were they just regular 6 month check ups? If so, then yes, it is not unusual.

I had super cataracts. I had to have both of my eyes scraped flat because I had a map dot fingerprint thingy, basically ridges on my cornea that had to be scraped flat or the cataract surgery would not work well.
I had to have one eye scraped and then wait 2 months for it to heal and then have the cataract surgery on that eye and then repeat the process for the other eye. It took me almost nine months to get everything done. Normal cataracts are usually done within a few weeks of each other and then you are done for life.

If the President is out in public, I can tell if his mind is there. If there are a bunch of checkups, at least we'll know to be prepared if he needs a cane, a cast, or reasonable consideration of VP in the bullpen.

We can criticize multiple ways, and while I approve some over others, I'm not letting this one go. Again, Alinsky showed us the way. I'll be damned if I'm not going to throw it right back on occasion. This is war. We don't like to think of it that way. It's "tawdry" and "indecent". But it is war. And it's not like we are insisting they be sent to death camps or attacked by incited mobs. I'd say a few superficial comments is pretty tame.

Army Veteran Violently Assaulted Because He Decorated His House with Trump Flags Dies on Memorial Day
He was beaten so badly he died within days.
The owner of a heavily decorated pro-Trump home in Southern California has died days after he was beaten to a pulp allegedly by a Navy veteran. Kerry Sheron, a 69-year-old Army veteran known locally for covering his residence with MAGA banners and American flags, died Sunday night after nearly a week hospitalized in critical condition. The attack happened May 20 outside Sheron's home in Escondido, police said.
Prosecutors allege 32-year-old Thomas Caleb Butler attacked Sheron in what officials described as an unprovoked assault. Butler, who has been described in local reports as a Navy veteran, has pleaded not guilty to charges including attempted murder, elder abuse, criminal threats and battery. "It was a single punch to the jaw," Garcia said. "The victim then falls to the floor, and there are subsequent hits to the victim's head area." Security footage obtained by local media allegedly showed Sheron standing outside his Buchanan Street home before the suspect approached and attacked him. A nearby witness reportedly attempted to intervene before the suspect fled the area on foot. ... In the days before Sheron's death, his wife, Maria, gave an emotional update, telling reporters there was "no hope" for her husband as he remained hospitalized with devastating injuries. She also said the family had been preparing for the worst after doctors warned that Sheron's condition had rapidly deteriorated due to severe head trauma.
It is with deep sadness that I share with you the news that Kerry Sheron, a 69-year-old Army veteran, tragically passed away Sunday night after being brutally beaten by his neighbor, all because he loved our country and President Trump.

Mike Pence is on his newest grifter tour selling political pornography to his base -- liberals and NeverTrumpers (but I repeat myself) -- and scolding us that if we no longer give the benefit of the doubt to toxic, psychotic leftwingers, we're the same as Satan. No really. He writes this in the National Review, obviously.
Incivility is at the heart of the problem. Liberals love to pretend that Donald Trump invented incivility, but he's more a symptom than a source. Trump did not devise the personal attack in politics, though he may have perfected it. Sadly, Trump's abrasive and combative style, once unique and jarring in the Republican Party, has been widely aped by right-wing populists. Long before Trump, however, left-wing progressives rejected civility and compromise. They followed the advice of the activist and agitator Saul Alinsky, who wrote Rules for Radicals, a 1971 manifesto on political confrontation. Among his thirteen rules, the most influential was the last: "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." Not surprisingly, the book includes an epigraph that praises "the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he won his own kingdom -- Lucifer."Mike Pence whined and cried for years that January 6 caused him Moderate Stress but seems to have not noticed that his allies on the left keep trying to kill Trump every other month.
A gunman was killed in a shootout with the Secret Service outside the White House on Saturday, after officials said he took out a gun and started firing at officers. What we know: The Metropolitan Police Department responded to the area of 17th Street NW and Pennsylvania Avenue around 6 p.m. on Saturday. According to the U.S. Secret Service, a person walked up to a security checkpoint, pulled a handgun out of his bag, and started firing at officers. Officers shot back, hitting the suspect. A male bystander was also hit and suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound. Paramedics took the gunman to the hospital and later died, the Secret Service confirmed. Police have identified the suspect as Nasire Best, 21, of Maryland.Near nonstop political violence by the left against the right is pretty incivil, isn't it, Mike?

Civility is not a one-sided venture.
It's a contract. When one side breaks the contract, there needs to be enforcement.

Butler, who has been described in local reports as a Navy veteran, has pleaded not guilty to charges including attempted murder, elder abuse, criminal threats and battery.
"It was a single punch to the jaw," Garcia said. "The victim then falls to the floor, and there are subsequent hits to the victim's head area."
I don't care if Butler intended to kill him. Into the industrial shredder with him.

There was a case 15+ years ago when we lived in connecticut where a guy got into a fight at a bar and punched a dude who fell and hit his head on the curb in the parking lot. He died before the ambulance got there. They charged the guy with murder but IIRC it got downgraded to manslaughter in a plea deal.

They never had an issue with this neighbor. So, I imagine the perp took the wrong cocktail of meds and alcohol together and this happened. I think it's foreseeable and he should get life. But diminshed capacity might play a role, unless the guy actually has a clear moment in custody away from the drugs and alcohol and realizes what he did...then, maybe suicide watch is needed.

There's the detail of "subsequent hits to the victim's head area" after Mr. Sheron was punched and fell to the ground. Multiple blows shows intent to cause serious physical harm.
At the very least the criminal charge should be California's version of Reckless Homicide. But ... it is California-town.

I became aware of it when Sir David Amess, who had recently attended a supporting event and also campaigned against knife crime, was stabbed to death at a public availability (as MP) at a church on October 15, 2021. (His killer, Abi Harbi Ali, was sentenced to life in prison.)
That's all according to Brave AI search summary, since I couldn't remember all the details offhand. It also says that the closest thing in the USA is showings of the documentary One Punch Homicide.

And let's not talk about how McCain forced Obama to expose how McCain went back in time and had himself tortured in Vietnam to suffer permanent muscle and nerve damage just so he could avoid using a computer in his old age.

Don’t take this the wrong way Ace, but it’s not a policy, it’s a choice.
We put on the uniform to defend the country. Every one who does that no matter how they serve, realizes it can end in death- and we’re ok with that. It comes with the territory.
Being in the military is a dangerous job. Hundreds of soldiers die each year on training accidents. The rigors of combat kills scores more through suicide.
That said, anyone pointing out the deaths of soldiers and using it to grandstand is not just dishonoring those soldiers, it is demeaning their service and reducing it to a political throw away line.

We're in the "Bloody Kansas" phase of ACW #2. The Democrats have come to realization that they can't win in the ballot box, so they're resorting to violence.
Maybe I'm just a crazy optimist, but I think that the strategy of violence will alienate most American citizens. Pres. Trump is going to hang this murder around the neck of the Democrats.

How quaint.
The Antifag who murdered a Trump supporter at a rally in Denver, in broad daylight, in front of hundreds of witnesses *and news cameras,* had all charges dropped by the DA, because once the Antifag pulled the gun and ran at the Trump supporter, he tried to ward him off with pepper spray - necessitating the shooting.
The message in Denver is explicit: when one of ours attacks you with a deadly weapon, you have a duty to die.

Made the mistake of going on Twitter. The comment section there is unhinged. Even if the attacker is a Republican, people say it’s the fault of “crazy left lunatics.” He’s not MAGA because there’s a picture of him wearing a Star Wars shirt, which somehow makes him gay? His drug addiction is supposedly the fault of the marxist left, and the PTSD is because he doesn’t have Jesus?
It's tragic, really. But until the MAGA community addresses the deep-rooted cultural issues within their own culture, this cycle of MAGA-on-MAGA violence will just continue. Where are their community leaders??
"deep-rooted cultural issue?" In all seriousness, this is just where anti-intellectualism & pro-individualism leads us. We have a big education battle in front of us that will take generations to fix.

John Cornyn is a star of GOPe policies and attitudes, and his bristling antipathy toward President Trump should be enough for the good voters of Texas to boot him to the curb.
Posted by CBD at 11:00 AM
Bristling antipathy? From a Senator who, according to him, voted with President Trump 99.2% of the time?

Yeah, I love that claim.
It's easy to vote with Trump all the time if you basically never advance Trump's agenda beyond passing a budget and confirming judges.

YD, I'm not going to get into an argument with you, but you're misunderstanding the purpose and power of prayer.
Prayer has saved lives, and sometimes the answer is "No."
Not to be flippant, but sometimes the answer is martyrdom.
Mr. Sherron sounds like he was a decent dude and pretty obviously murdered for being MAGA. Do you really think most Americans aren't disgusted by what they see coming from the Democrats?

Uh, Reddit has linked "The Hindustan Times", which reports:
Who is Thomas Caleb Butler: 5 things to know:
2- Butler is a Navy veteran with ‘severe PTSD’ a friend told The California Post. Police believe he did not know Sheron. They also believe the attack had nothing to do with politics and are speaking to witnesses.
3- Butler's friend told the publication that he ‘liked’ the ‘Trump house’ and lived just a few blocks away from it. The friend also reportedly said he supported President Donald Trump as a registered Republican.
4- Shocked by the attack, Butler's friend said “This is the guy that plays with Legos and Star Wars stuff,” as per the Post. The family friend further said Butler was medicated and his mental illness was making him weak. The friend noted that Butler had served many years in the Navy but was now without a job and fighting his demons, as per The Post. He ‘sits in his room and thinks everyone is coming to get him,’ the friend said.

I'm still confused why being drunk or high is somehow a mitigating circumstance when someone attacks or kills another person.
Yes, alcohol and drugs tend to remove people's inhibitions, making it easier for them to be violent, but unless they were drugged without their knowledge or consent, they volunteered to impair themselves.
If you volunteer to impair your ability to not hurt other people and then hurt other people, that should be an enhancement to the crime.

It takes moving a mountain to defeat them in a primary, and the leaders job is to manage and even protect them, all while trying to advance legislation 50+ prima donnas have an assortment of reasons to not want passed, most of which is petty and stupid and not subject to actual argument and debate.

Sure, they're disgusted.
And they're afraid of Democrats.
And they see we're unwilling to defend our own, let alone the madding crowd of fearful people.
We're giving them no choice but to support their oppressors to protect themselves, which they'll do because of human nature. One side is shooting and the other is praying.
That isn't going to hack it.
G-d gave us many more tools than prayer. If we refuse to use them, we're the guy in the flood who refuses the boats that come to help, and gets confused when the prayers don't stop him from drowning.
Imagine when Kirk was shot, if hundreds of men descended on UVU armed to the teeth and baying for Robinson's blood, while their wives did the praying... That would have gone a country mile further toward preventing more murders than what happened.
All we're doing is emboldening the Marxists and inspiring nothing but resigned apathy in everyone else.

Thing about Trump, things aren't always what they seem. Yes, he put on hold the arms deal with Taiwan and he's, apparently, lightening up on Xi.
But that doesn't mean they aren't carrots under a box fall.

Yet...
I'm hopeful Trump laid out some boundaries for Xi to not cross. Because they've got a foothold in the country. A rather significant foothold.
And it's not just land.

As much as I love President Trump, I am most disappoint with his significant policy reversal a couple weeks ago -- publicly stating his support for allowing approximately 500,000 to 600,000 Chinese students to study in American universities, arguing that removing these students would cause lower-tier U.S. colleges to collapse financially and described it as "insulting" to tell China that their students are unwanted.
[And, as The Wifey points out, how many of those ChiComm students -- virtually all from very wealthy families -- are going to be attending "lower-tier U.S. colleges" anyway?]

I'm still confused why being drunk or high is somehow a mitigating circumstance when someone attacks or kills another person.
Yes, alcohol and drugs tend to remove people's inhibitions, making it easier for them to be violent, but unless they were drugged without their knowledge or consent, they volunteered to impair themselves.
If you volunteer to impair your ability to not hurt other people and then hurt other people, that should be an enhancement to the crime.
Posted by: FeatherBlade at May 26, 2026 05:37 PM (vJrRc)
——
Being drunk or high generally is not a mitigating factor in crimes. The exception is for crimes that require ‘specific intent’ to commit the criminal act. For example, some ‘murder one’ capital crimes require a very specific intent to intentionally murder the person you kill. If you are very drunk or high at the time, you might get the benefit of the doubt in being unable to formulate that level of specific intent.

Not excusing this guy for anything but if he is a veteran and being treated by the VA for PTSD or some other mental issues literally anything can trigger an psychotic episode with the drugs they hand out.
Heck they gave chantrix to vets to quit smoking. That drug had multiple black box warnings for psychotic issues but they handed that stuff out like candy to vets to help us quit smoking. I took it for about a week and had multiple issues and some seriously fvcked up dreams. They got mad when I quit taking it.

I think it's a mistake to look at things like Venezuela, Cuba and Iran as discreet foreign policy issues. Aside from being generational problems for us they also all have one thing in common, China.
China not only had effective control over Venezuela they also controlled the Panama Canal. Now they don't have either. It's no coincidence Hamas has been all over Venezuela for years, they were part of the China access because of Iran. And now we are taking down Iran and securing another crucial waterway, the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump has gained a lot of negotiating power over the last few months over China. Now the discussions of what China needs to do are coming from a different place.

All Democrats Boycott JD Vance's Anti-Fraud Roundtable, Because They're the Party of Looters and Shooters; Nick Shirley's Right-Hand Man Says That Autism Billing Went Up 47,000% (Which Means 470x) In Past Few Years
A big source of fraud consists of paying off corrupt, criminal parents to take their children to a corrupt doctor to get a fake autism diagnosis. Then they get fraudulent benefits, and scammers bilk the taxpayers out of huge sums of money providing non-services to non-autistic children.
The Justice Department today announced the Minnesota Health Care Fraud Takedown, which resulted in criminal charges against 15 defendants, including owners of child care centers and various Medicaid providers, for their alleged participation in various fraud schemes involving over $90 million in intended loss, including the two largest Medicaid fraud cases ever charged in the District and first-of-their kind charges involving additional Medicaid programs. The Justice Department also announced a major investment in combatting Medicaid fraud through a significant expansion of the Division's Health Care Fraud Section, allocating funding to permit the hiring of 15 new Trial Attorney positions to combat Medicaid fraud across the United States. "Today, we are holding scammers accountable who ripped off the American taxpayer and harmed those deserving legitimate assistance from these programs," said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. "These alleged con artists stole taxpayer dollars while providing substandard care for children and abandoning at least one Medicaid recipient as they passed away. The DOJ Fraud Division, along with the White House's Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, will dismantle illegal schemes from coast-to-coast, just as they did today in Minnesota. This is just the tip of the iceberg." "Driven by data showing a significant increase in Medicaid fraud across the country, the 15 additional prosecutors will serve as a force multiplier for our existing Strike Forces to combat this critical new threat," said Assistant Attorney General Colin M. McDonald of the Justice Department's Fraud Division. "The Fraud Division is committed to supercharging the Health Care Fraud Strike Force program with the resources it needs to tackle the pervasive fraud in the health care industry and protect the vulnerable beneficiaries of these programs, including children and those suffering from chronic ailments."
Alexa tells me that $400 million is over 67,000 percent of $600,000. Or 670,000 times $600,000.
"Today's arrests mark the largest autism fraud bust in American history," said HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. "Under the leadership of President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance, this Administration is carrying out the most aggressive anti-fraud effort in modern American history. These criminals exploited vulnerable children, stole taxpayer dollars, and diverted critical autism care and resources away from families who truly need support, and we will continue rooting out fraud to protect children and restore integrity to America's public health programs." ... Autism Fraud In the largest Medicaid autism fraud case ever charged by the Department, two defendants were charged in connection with an approximately $46.6 million scheme to defraud the Early Intensive Developmental and Behavioral Intervention (EIDBI) program, a publicly funded Minnesota Health Care Program that offers medically necessary services to people under the age of 21 with autism spectrum disorder. In 2017, Minnesota became one of the first states to offer Medicaid coverage for EIDBI services. EIDBI claims skyrocketed from over $600,000 in 2018 to over $400 million by 2025.
Imprison, then denaturalize and deport.
As alleged, the defendants paid kickbacks to parents who brought their children to autism centers, diagnosed children with autism regardless of medical necessity, and billed for autism services that were not actually provided, depriving children who did need assistance of needed care. ... Integrated Community Supports Fraud In the first criminal prosecution involving fraud in Minnesota's Integrated Community Supports (ICS) program, one defendant was charged with a $1.4 million scheme to bill for services that were not provided as represented. ICS is a Minnesota Medicaid benefit designed to fill a gap in the service continuum between a person living in their own home and more restrictive settings such as group homes and assisted living. ICS was designed to help people live more independently in the community--as opposed to an institutionalized setting--with daily one-on-one help with health, safety, and household tasks so that qualifying individuals can live in the community. The defendant in the prosecution announced today submitted claims for vulnerable recipients who required 24-hour care, one of whom was found deceased a day after being billed for services he did not receive. After paying out a total of approximately $4.2 million when the ICS program began in 2021, the cost has grown to more than $183 million in 2025. In all, claims data shows that the Medicaid system has paid out more than $460 million for ICS services since 2021. ... "Medicaid dollars are meant to support vulnerable Americans--not bankroll luxury cars and real estate empires for fraudulent providers who exploit people with disabilities," said CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz. "These prosecutions put Medicaid fraudsters on notice--the gravy train is over. We will cut you off, shut you down, and lock you up. They also send a clear message to the patients who depend on Medicaid and the taxpayers who fund it--this administration has your back."

He says they all show up to Dr, or wherever and demand a translator. Even if born in USA. Translator gets $100 / hr., 8 hr. minimum. They also get transportation to and from. So another $1000 billed the state everytime one of these fucks does anything as it is all paid for by the state.

No but treatment is very helpful, and the behaviorist I used was very expensive. I didn’t consider fraud…silly me.
But the crap thing about this is it will narrow the ability for those who do actually need it to get it, and while Dems are over there not wanting to imprison their voting blocks, they are hurting children. Go them.

The Frankfurt School found that the Western working class, being literate and enfranchised, were not open to the "class struggle" message of Marxism. They really liked the prosperity that they already had in market economies, and had way too much to lose for a world revolution.
Socialism was always a confidence scheme that really only worked on unlettered serfs. So, research grifters invented Critical Theory, and replaced the old Trotskyite scam patter with the rhetoric of Gay Race Communism -- basically doing gain of function on a mind virus that propagates to this day.

Raw Story: It's not Vance. It's not Rubio. GOP pollster reveals who MAGA voters actually want in 2028. Republican pollster Sarah Longwell says there is a name coming up repeatedly in her focus groups when voters are asked who they want to lead the country next — and it is not JD Vance, Marco Rubio, or any of the conventional 2028 frontrunners.
It's Candace Owens.
"I think Candace Owens is great. I would vote for her in a minute," said Mycal, a Biden-to-Trump voter from North Carolina, in a February 2025 focus group conducted by Longwell for The Bulwark.
Owens has emerged as one of the most frequently mentioned non-politicians when participants are asked about potential future presidents — a phenomenon that cuts across age groups and even across traditional partisan lines.
The trend was underscored recently when Hunter Biden appeared on Owens's podcast, a pairing Longwell describes as "the melding of two of the internet's main characters." While many found the appearance shocking, Longwell says it fit a pattern she has been observing for years: Owens's appeal is no longer confined to the MAGA base.

There is simply no way these parasites will go legit. They are NOT going to make an honest living or honest investments. Todd Blanche noted this at his press conference.
The only solution is to prosecute, imprison, denaturalize, and deport. And for that we can reverse those insane percentages of fraud -- maybe .047% will actually see the inside of a court.
We'll be chasing these criminals for generations, and it's going to get harder as more of them are natural-born citizens.

Not sure if I spelled that right, but the indigenous of Chatham Island off New Zealand were a peaceful lot (according to them) and the Maori showed up and ate them.
Kinda funny. I guess the Maori are the one non-white people who can no longer claim to be peace loving victims of colonialism. well, they claim that anyway because they used White man's ships (commandeered) and muskets to get to the islands.

Once you've got your populace so woefully stupid they can no longer even formulate coherent thoughts about economics anymore for you to play upon and manipulate, you can replace "Economics" with anything and keep getting the same effect. Hoo-hahs and ding-dongs. Skin color. Basic food staples like milk and bread. Literally anything. Bitch and moan, Divide and conquer. It's Critical Everything Theory. "Cultural Marxism" just means it's the same old dog and pony show but no one is even pretending that the labor theory of value or historical materialism has anything to do with anything anymore. No, the Revolution itself has finally become a self-licking dispshit cone.

While it's very possible she's the nominee again, (Maybe by actually winning a vote somewhere!) with is being 2 years out, it might be someone that is not on anyone's radar.
Clinton never should have won in 92, but the frontrunners savaged each other and he ended up winning. I can see the two monsters from California so damaging each other that some no-name governor becomes the nominee.
Oh damn it- I just predicted Whitmer, didn't I?

Clinton and Obama were both well known and highly present in polling 2 years out.
The only one possibly close to them as an analogous candidate would be AOC, and she has a problem that neither Clinton nor Obama had (especially Obama).
The black caucus have chosen Kamala, and they're really not going to budge. Black vote has become the single largest driving force in Democrat presidential politics, especially with the erosion of the white vote since Obama.
The black caucus chose Biden early in 2020, and they never let go. The rest of the party just had to catch up.

No one is going to replicate Trump's coalition just like no one was going to replicate Obama's and no one was going to replicate W's.
What matters is who is going to dominate the early states in the primary calendar, and with name recognition sky high, it would literally take Vance decided that having a 100% chance at the nomination and then at worst, a 50/50 chance at the presidency just wasn't worth it.

Prosecutors sought a 14¼-year prison sentence (guidelines range). Over their objections, Judge West granted a substantial downward departure: one year in the county workhouse plus five years of supervised probation. She cited Moton being "particularly amenable to probation," success with community-based programming, and readily accepting responsibility.

The Republican primary for United States Senator in Texas is a snapshot of the tension between the entrenched interests of the corporate branch of the Republican Party, and a younger, aggressive, and unabashedly MAGA-adjacent conservative wing. The corporate Republican party (GOPe) has been the only game in town for many years, and their complacency in the face of the progressive onslaught on traditional America has created the existential issues we face today.
John Cornyn is a star of GOPe policies and attitudes, and his bristling antipathy toward President Trump should be enough for the good voters of Texas to boot him to the curb.
So...you Texans out there...vote early...vote often!

Um... According to Brave AI:
The oldest known use of gears is attributed to the South Pointing Chariot in ancient China, with historical records dating its invention to approximately 2650 B.C.E. (or the 27th century B.C.E.).

Trump's "fraud on the voters of New York" that justified 37 felony convictions and decades in prison was over ... $130,000.
And further, the fraud alleged was, "had Trump voters known about that ledger entry--which was made after the election--they would have changed their vote to ... Hillary ... via time travel."

Panel of Hawiian Appeals Court Judges Ignores Supreme Court Rulings and Invalidates Alabama's 7-0 Gerrymander, Claiming "Muh Racism"
The Supreme Court did not forbid all judicial scrutiny of gerrymandered districts. However, it made it very clear that only real, demonstrable racism was cause to intervene in a state's legislative maps, and that Democrat Party bullshit about "dilution of minority voting power" wasn't enough. "Republicans are trying to reduce Democrat congressional power and that's racist, in a way, if you think about it" wasn't enough.
An appeals court decided they're The Real Judges Here and ignored the Supreme Court ruling, citing the precedent of Muh Racism v. Muh Midterms.Alabama Republicans sought to use a previously blocked 2023 congressional map following the Supreme Court's recent ruling curbing the use of race in the drawing of electoral districts that helped minority communities increase their representation in Congress. Under that map, Republicans were slated to gain one electoral seat by erasing a Black-majority seat held by Democrats in the southeastern part of the state. However, the three-judge panel said Republicans must continue to use a map that has two majority-Black districts where Democrats hold significant advantages. "Ultimately, we cannot see our way clear to requiring Alabamians to cast their votes in the 2026 elections under a districting plan tainted by intentional race-based discrimination," the federal judges wrote. "We again cannot understand the 2023 Plan as anything other than intentionally discriminatory."
Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall said he would appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court. "Know this: In my mind, it is not a matter of whether we win this case, only when," Marshall said.
More from Catherine Salgado at PJM:
It is unclear why Alabama officials should comply with the panel's order, given that it is in direct conflict with two rulings from the Supreme Court, a higher authority, and the Voting Rights Act. How can the judges licitly rule that Alabama must use districts that are unconstitutional and violative of the Voting Rights Act from being drawn specifically based on how many black voters there are within the limits? The U.S. Supreme Court resoundingly ruled against such gerrymandering both in Louisiana v. Callais and Allen v. Caster. As a matter of fact, Allen v. Caster specifically involved Alabama and its black-majority districts. The Voting Rights Act forbids the districts, requiring a redrawing of the map, according to the Supreme Court ruling. Therefore, how can a federal judge panel randomly decide to rule the opposite and demand Alabama officials comply? The panel of judges claimed that not using the map with the two race-based districts was discriminatory, which is of course nonsense, because drawing congressional maps based on the skin color of voters is inherently discriminatory. And again, the panel's claim directly violates two Supreme Court rulings and the Voting Rights Act.
OUTRAGEOUS: A three-judge federal panel BLOCKED Alabama’s newly redrawn 6R-1D congressional map, ruling that the district lines “intentionally discriminated based on race in violation of the Constitution.”

This is like the supposedly 'Independent Agencies' in the administration. There are not supposed to be independent parts of the Federal Government... they belong to one of the three branches, period.
But there is no mechanism whereby the Supreme Court can actually Fire a Judge, or demote a Judge, for ignoring them. Congress should have, long ago, created such a mechanism, but they gave up creating rules for the Courts in the early 1900s.

Well, in that regard, the first few months of Trump's second term was all awash in stories of Trump just...firing lots of people in the executive.
It's still going on, even. We have the smallest federal employment in raw numbers since the 60s.
The comparison between the administrative state and the judiciary isn't really strong. The administrative state could always have been fired. No executive would do it, though. The judiciary, though, is protected from termination except through Congress and impeachment (or statute eliminating districts, which is technically possible), and impeachment is a joke.

Maybe it was a bid by the higher ups in the Senate GOPe to let him vote that way because his seat was supposedly "safe", but you would think that after the high-profile scalps that upstart Republican voters have claimed over the last couple of decades that they would have been keeping an eye out for him.

Porsche is actually much more reasonable, in part because there are relatively limited options/configurations. For true exotics, you can pretty much choose the color you want for each swatch of color in the car, plus you have 10x more options for exotic materials like carbon fiber.
Porsche at least has the option prices on its configurator. Ferrari, Lambo, Aston, Bentley, Rollie, etc do NOT.

When I was stationed on Oahu in the late 80's, I had a Native Hawaiian on my Paint Ball Team. Family owned a ranch on North Shore.
Invited me to a 'Locals' bar... and when I walked in alone, it was like the stranger walked into the Old West bar... place went silent... until my friend spotted me, walked up and greeted me... then everything was AOK.
And weirdly enough, I went to that bar a few times after that, and never had a problem.
It's tribal, but if one of the tribe vouches for you... you're OK.

Their last supercar, the SF90, has cratered in resale value. Their stock price took a big hit the moment the Luce was revealed (spy photos suggested a much better looking car). Stock is down 32% in the last 12 months, at a time when the market is otherwise rocking like Dokken.
Meanwhile, competitive cars from Lambo are going for well over list price, with resale value on used cars also above original list.

One of the funnier little sub narratives is that CA and VA put the question to their voters which makes their redistricting more valid than TX which did not.
Why did CA and VA have to put it to voters?
Because both CA and VA established processes to make redistricting "non-partisan" and by a separate body...recently, where the original process was just to have things done by the legislatures.
So, both states had to ask their voters to undo the systems that they had recently set up in order to redraw.

Not just phones (EU is doing that,) and not just replaceable, but standardized -- how many form factors do they need? My toothbrush uses 1/2AAA (2x) LiNH and my project later will be to add another tube next to it to hold 2x AAA batteries since I can not find 1/2 AAA at decent price and non-chinese brand.
But seriously, a $100 toothbrush should not need to be replaced in 3 years because the batteries died. same with cars.

Specifically, cultural marxists believe the whole world is about oppressors and the oppressed and they want to BECOME the oppressors.
This is why it works so well for them - they built an ideology which claims the only reason they aren't rich, powerful, and oppressing others is...oppression, and the answer is...use any method possible to steal from and oppress those oppressors.

The only way out is through.
El Salvador got out by having massive majorities in its Congress agree to impeach a shit ton of judges. Trump doesn't have that.
So, he either acts like a president and goes slowly but surely, which he is doing with a strong legal team at DOJ, or he becomes an actual dictator, which is not in his bones. He'll always be a reformer, not a conqueror.
However, the additions to the judiciary, the precedents his legal team is setting by playing the legal game, and the changes in the GOP itself will ensure that these long-term changes can actually remain in place past his presidency.

It's my understanding that this is happening and has been happening for the last year. DHS resources working with state law enforcement (who have 287(g) agreements) to identify illegals and legal immigrants with bad CDLs.
Pretty much anything we can think of within the law, Trump's administration is doing and has been doing or advancing towards doing since day 1.

Chinese is for family style and bringing teen boys.

Means you can also order a Crispy Beef and not feel awful after from so much fry b/c you can order and eat a nonfried dish, too...yes, I love Crispy Beef, but can't have more than a few bites...

When you don’t have a justice system that’s fair, people start to ignore it.
Trump is trying to adhere to the process, in order to save it.
The enemy knows this and is trying on one level to run out the clock on his presidency.
These rogue courts have done significant damage to trust in the justice system. A weak chief justice on SCOTUS has helped them by being largely indifferent to their actions.
But overall, Trump and his allies have won a great deal of the cases with few exceptions.
This was always going to be a war of attrition.

Which is that the "other side/Dems/'liberals'/progressives", despite their variations, essentially are now totalitarian bots without standards or a shred of the mindset that made a society more/less based on rule of law possible (a rarity in human history).
Not to mention the more fundamental issue of the constitutional collapse in which the judiciary wields legislative and executive power (usurps) without consequence, which long long predates the current day. Congress has long since surrendered, current administration is appeasing when it comes to this stuff. From the very first lawless ridiculous order from the district in WA in the first weeks of the first term ("Muslim ban").
Repudiating in cases where a court is completely out of line, including by their own rules (many examples ongoing) *is* preserving, or rather attempting to restore, the constitutional system. But it requires weathering a few weeks of (typical) unhinged hysteria. Which the Legal Cult simply cannot stomach.

Trans "Woman" Exposes "Pre-Op Privates" In YWCA Changing Room
Seattle Is Now a Full Mad Max Highway-Gang Warzone
The trans " " " woman " " " didn't just expose his "pre-op privates" -- known throughout history by non-insane people as "dick and balls" -- he "flaunted" them, because like many perverts invading women's intimate spaces, he's a pervert and exhibitionist and voyeur.
She means it's unenforceable. She seems to be implying, but is too socially terrified to say out loud, that maybe male perverts should be banned from the women's locker rooms entirely.
YMCA in liberal city finally cracks down with new rules after trans woman exposed pre-op privates in female locker room
A trans woman named Sammy has been banned from flaunting her pre-op privates at a YMCA in liberal San Francisco after a sustained freak out by gym goers, the Daily Mail has learned. The Stonestown Family YMCA has posted new rules preventing the sort of behavior that got Sammy in trouble, prohibiting excessive nudity in the women's locker room. Sammy, who's stood firm for two years despite horrifying women and children, hasn't been seen since the new rules went into effect. 'Nudity should be discreet, limited, and brief,' reads the new flier hanging in the changing room, headlined 'NEW YMCA LOCKER ROOMS GUIDELINES 2026'. 'Nudity is permitted only while actively showering. Members are expected to put clothing on or be covered during use of the space outside of showering.' ... Susan Pete, a 59-year-old member who was one of Sammy's most vocal critics, told the Daily Mail that the new rules seem specifically written for Sammy, who has been accused of violating each one of them. Pete said she's happy Sammy's gone, but she and many other members are wondering about a new policy that seems impractical. ...
Sammy had been a regular at the gym since 2024,< > prompting a series of confrontations by standing around naked in front of the mirror, blow-drying her hair while bent over. Menacing stares would ensue, as Sammy would allegedly argue back, calling people not just 'intolerant' but also 'drunk'. ... YMCA officials, however, defended Sammy's use of the women's locker room, citing her 'civil rights'. This only inflamed outrage from other members who felt uncomfortable seeing a husky trans woman with male genitalia and 'slowly growing breasts' roaming around in front of women and children. 'I've seen that man more than most of my boyfriends,' Pete told the Daily Mail last year.Hashtag #Accurate.
At the Berkeley YMCA, member Elizabeth Kenney recalled seeing Sammy 'harassing' an elderly member who'd asked her to 'cover up.' 'If you don't like the way I look, then you've got a sexual problem with yourself,' Sammy allegedly told the senior. 'Get away from her, leave her alone,' Kenney recalled telling Sammy. 'You're a man, you'd don't belong here.'
... One group member named Anne, who attends the Stonestown Y, filed a police report in late March, accusing Sammy of harassment. She described a time Sammy, after blowing drying her hair naked, walked up 'very close' to her, turned around and creepily used a handheld mirror to stare back at her.So the rule limits the freedom of children who are using the correct locker room, while the aggressive, menacing male pervert gets to flap his dick around.
'He used it as if it were a rear view mirror to look at me behind himself,' Anne wrote in the report. 'His eyes caught mine in the mirror and I froze.' Anne described another time she allegedly 'paraded' around in front of two young children. Elizabeth, 23, told the Daily Mail about another time she was 'repulsed and angry' to see Sammy 'blow drying his entire naked body, including his penis, posed in front of all of the other women.' The new rules include an order that members 'use hair dryers for drying head hair only.' They also now require that children aged five and older be accompanied by their parent or guardian while using changing rooms for the opposite sex.
... 'The transgender people ruined everything for women,' Pete told the Daily Mail. 'They ruined sports, ruined the locker room, they upset me. 'We've been very happy since he's been gone, but I don't know if he's going to come back and cover up, or fight against it,' she continued. 'Hopefully he just went to Seattle.'

What a bunch of fags.
Listen to what they say, and think about all the Lefty protests and blockages and vandalism, and apply it to the hippies trying to justify what they are doing. And they almost seem to understand the solution is to lock people up, but I don't think they will ever get there. I say give them fines for blocking the native culture and send them to reeducation camps.

What do you expect? Police departments, justice systems are a recent blip in thousands of years of human history.
The “social compact” or however you want to put it, meant the community agreed to stand down, put the ropes away, in lieu of a professional cadre of duly sworn law enforcement. The Rule of Law. Instead of hanging miscreants, we outsourced, as a society, law and law enforcement.
But our system has been hijacked by the crooks, corrupted officials, imposters, posers, and incompetents. Saboteurs.
Now what? We’re paying enormous amounts of money for all this stuff. Staggering sums of money.

It's not just the trannys either. Most gyms I've been in, when you're in the locker room changing or getting ready to shower, older men will ignore all the open lockers to pick an open locker next to you. More than once, I've had to stop and growl at them to move over to the other side of the locker room, which is full of empty spaces. Even if I were flamingly ghey, that'd annoy the shit out of me.

A lot of people lost a lot of home equity in that period. I saw grand mansions turned into slum apartments and then abandoned.
So the suburbanization was a reaction to that. All the culdesacs and maze like developments were a form of battlement.
You travel around the world, and wonder why the US can't have nice cities with everything convenient and mass transit, etc. and if you don't know the history of the urban decay, it seems like a choice. It was a necessity. Our next phase is South Africa where they have patrolled enclaves.

There is a red one. This car was in development for so long that it entirely missed the EV fad. If people remember, it wasn't that long ago that many governments -- including the entire EU -- were going to outright ban gasoline-powered cars.

The rather stupid thing is that they think by voting for it twice and then voting it down using the early voting in elections already started excuse is going to fly.
On the other hand, useful to simply have a bunch of these types flushed from the party. It isn't as if there weren't a fair number of House GOP members wanting in the wings to become state senators or anything.

Among many other things. But instead of treating a multitude of psychiatric problems (gender dysphoria almost never presents without multiple psychiatric comorbidities) as psychiatric problems, all medical research and established treatment modalities get shoved aside in favor of wrong-sex hormones, chemical castration, and mutilation. This isn't medicine it's Mengelism.

I think the stupid excuses these weasels will make for this betrayal vote to voters over the next two years is guaranteed to piss off their voters even more. More even if the GOP does not hold the House and two years are wasted in idiotic impeachments.

Their only hope is Lindsay Graham saving them, and Lindsay Graham is honestly Trump's little bitch at this point.
Graham is more likely to come up with alternatives for Trump than to defend these guys.

I believe the preferred terms are now "tranny" (informal usage) and "man with mental illness" (the choice for more formal contexts).
Preferred by whom?
Anyone who isn't a jabbering fucktard.

Civil rights of a transgender? Where is the common sense?
Civil rights includes social gender norms. Anyone who imposes their flamboyant physical behavior upon another gender is not civil. Let's cut the crap and return to civil behavior. The female gender in general do not want perves in their athletic bathhouse subjecting them to a of frontage.

Punishing everyone because we're too afraid to say what we mean. It's this kind of BS that had us all taking our shoes off at airports, rather than just banning every Allahu Akbhar as we ought.
