AoSHQ Weekly Prayer List Please submit any prayer requests to me, “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo at-sign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update. Prayer Requests: 1/6 – Diogenes requested prayers for his best friend since college, who was diagnosed with cancer. Within hours or hearing this, the friend’s son, a man that Diogenes has known since he was a baby, collapsed from what appears to be a brain tumor. The prognosis isn’t hopeful. Please pray for both of these fine men.
1/23 Update – Diogenes’ best friend’s son Sean had emergency brain surgery. The labs are back and it’s not good news. He has stage 4 brain cancer. They were scheduled to meet with an oncologist on 1/26 to determine the best pathway ahead for the time he has remaining. This is just crushing news. Thanks to all the Horde for their prayers and support for this fine young man.
2/11 Update – Sean has not started brain cancer treatments yet. There are still some issues to work out. But he had more bad news when his wife’s sister was hit by a truck on 2/10 and is in critical condition (broken back, severe concussion, bleeding on the brain). Diogenes asks for anyone in the Horde to speak up if they know of any support groups for people in Sean’s situation. Thanks in advance. 1/8 - Doof asked for prayers for his mother. She was hit hard by the flu. She couldn’t get out of bed the morning of 1/8 and was sent by ambulance to the hospital. She is alert and communicating but prayers are appreciated for her recovery. Prayers are also appreciated for Doof, as he absolutely despises hospitals.
2/18 Update – Mom was moved to a different facility on 2/12. She is still receiving post-hospital rehab, but this place also has long term care and assisted living options, so more robust care is available. She is happier there and is improving daily. She still has a long way to go, so continued prayers are much appreciated! 1/24 – Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd posted some updates and requests. In the blessings department: blood glucose has continued to fall, well within normal range. BP is good. The hole where his molar used to be is coming along nicely. The youngest has jaw surgery coming up in February. This is many years in the making and should correct her bite and ease the pain in her jaw and ears. She’s not looking forward to the liquid diet, but is looking forward to the pain relief. Prayers are always appreciated, and based on what they have been through, he knows they are efficacious.
2/7 Update – He does not have any pain related to his lost molar anymore. And his (adult) daughter’s jaw surgery is scheduled for 2/9. She will stay overnight at the hospital in Ann Arbor.
2/14 Update – His daughter’s jaw surgery seems to be fully successful, thanks be to God. She is recuperating rapidly, the swelling is sharply down, and she’s counting the days to getting off the liquid diet. 1/31 – George V asked for prayers for his wife. She needs a heart valve replacement but first needs a heart cath to assess the valve and determine the replacement procedure and perhaps put stents in the coronary arteries that may be partially blocked. Also, the preliminary CT scan of her heart showed spots on her lungs that may be cancerous.
2/21 Update – The prayers are working. Thanks be to God and everyone who prayed. The heart cath showed no blockages in her arteries. The heart valve procedure will be in about 4 weeks. The pulmonologist said the lung spots have a very low chance of being cancerous, but a second scan will tell for sure. So far good news, and thanks to all who prayed for her. 2/4 – BifBewalski posted that it has been a little over a year since he took Smash to the ER for abdominal problems. After a full year of insurance BS, specialists, and other doctors visits, she has been taken back for abdominal surgery today. Please offer a prayer for her successful procedure and a speedy recovery.
2/7 Update – BifBewalski brought Smash home from the overnight stay in the hospital. She is recovering well. The post-surgery fever broke and the pain is minimal. A full recovery is expected. Thank you for the prayers – it truly makes a difference! 2/7 – Frankie asked for prayers for her godmother, Linda, who has been in declining health and recently had to move to a care facility. 2/7 – Vmom deport deport deport requested prayers for her hubby, who has had the coughing crud since 2/2.
2/14 Update – Vmom also asks for prayers on behalf of her husband, as his employer is expected to file for Chapter 11. They are hoping for a decent severance. 2/11 – Bluebell sent an update from grammie winger: "I've finished my 6th round of chemo. Thursday (Feb. 12) I will meet with the surgeon who will decide if surgery is an option for me. If not, I'm not sure if there's a Plan B. Maybe more chemo? Ugh - it's already deteriorated my vision and hearing. Nasty stuff. But it's all in the Lord's hands. I don't know how people who don't have faith do it. I miss Ace but it's something I have to set aside for now. I love each and every one of you. Even the trolls. LOL"
2/26 Update from grammie winger, via Bluebell: “Tomorrow (2/27) I go in for an all day marathon of tests and consultations. Then Monday (3/2) they will attempt the surgery. It is quite complex and they are not exactly sure they can do it. If they can, it will be a ten hour procedure. I confess to being a little apprehensive. The Rev is a little overwhelmed poor soul. Fortunately my two kids have me covered. My daughter the nurse for the medical side, and my son for the spiritual side. He has been a rock.”
2/11 – Joe Kidd sent an update related to his friend, Bill, who we prayed for in December. Bill’s former girlfriend had passed away, and Bill and the girlfriend’s family were devastated by the loss. Bill has sold the house he (and the girlfriend) had lived in, and sent half the proceeds to his former girlfriend’s family. Just recently, Bill took early retirement to care for his 90 year old mother. Joe Kidd sends thanks. If you know, you know. 2/13 – Whigwife posted that Whig made it through surgery and was resting comfortably. 2/14 – TCN in Alaska asked for advice. She is currently allowing her son, his girlfriend, and their infant to live in a condo she owns, and they are providing a terrible environment for the baby: pot-smoking, booze, no food, no formula. TCN in Alaska asked for advice about how to handle the situation. Prayers would help. 2/14 – L gave an update on her brother Ron. He has been in declining health for the last 6+ months, and has been transferred to a nice facility for hospice. They had been discussing this possibility for months. He would make improvements, then relapse, each time ending up more disabled. The best part is that he is at peace with the decision. He is aware enough to assist with the final plans and is enjoying parceling out his remaining possessions to family and friends. L’s daughter’s cardiac recovery continues. L says she cannot thank all sufficiently for the many prayers. 2/19 – mindful webworker requested prayers for his wife. Milady Jo will be having surgery on 2/26. It should be outpatient, and then a couple of weeks of recovery. Prayers are welcome for her, her surgeon, and her hapless husband while she’s down.
2/26 Update – The surgery is for Respiratory Epithelial Adenomatoid Hamartomak (REAH) – basically a blocked up nose. It’s relatively rare. It took a while to find an ENT whose diagnosis and surgical recommendation gave confidence. The surgery should improve her life greatly. It is scheduled for 1 pm.
2/28 Update – Thanks for the good thoughts and prayers for MiladyJo’s surgery. It took about 4 hours and seems to have been completely successful. There has been a great improvement in breathing and even appearance. She said that, after years of waiting, it seems like a dream, and that she knows with family, friends, and Morons and ‘Ettes, she is much loved. 2/20 – Gouveneur Morris requested prayers for herself as she has surgery scheduled for 2/27 for spondylolisthesis. 2/21 - Skip asked for prayers for his sister and her two children, as they grieve their husband/father. The memorial service was on 2/21. 2/21 – Vmom deport deport deport asked for prayers for Gerry and Cathy, the elderly parents of her co-worker, B. Gerry and Cathy are in failing health, and B is bravely trying to keep them cared for and independent while also being a mom to her own kids. 2/21 – San Franpsycho requested a prayer for complete and immediate healing for PS, his oldest living relative, who is back in the hospital due to post-surgery fever and possible pneumonia. 2/21 – Sock Monkey asked for prayers of comfort and peace for Rickb223, who recently lost his wife to cancer. It was apparently a long battle and he was her primary caregiver. He is struggling. Please pray for him. 2/25 – LinusVanPelt posted a request for prayers for himself. He had a health scare and it’s freaking him out a bit. He had a real thing happen, and then received a clean bill of health, but has 2 more doctors to see. He can’t stop irrationally worrying that they’re going to say bad stuff (despite the real reason for the visits is to adjust medication levels).
2/28 Update – He woke up in a hospital ICU recently. Everything checked out, and it was a stress-induced incident, but that means he needs to make changes in his professional life. He is looking for the Lord’s guidance. 2/25 – Teresa in Fort Worth posted that she might need some prayers. Her PET scan was less than encouraging. She will have more information on 2/26.
2/26 Update – There were 2 new spots on her liver and a couple of weird things in the transverse colon. But the oncologist says he is not worried by anything he saw on the PET scan.
2/27 Update – The newest chemo protocol appears to be working. Her cancer markers are below the “cancerous” range. So for now they will continue with 2 weeks of continuous medication delivered directly into the Hepatic Artery and 2 weeks off. Unfortunately, one of the meds is a low dose of steroids, so her appetite and her Zepbound are currently duking it out. 2/25 – Robert posted that he needed an ‘Ette to kindly bash his brains in. He is suffering yet another massive gout flare up, and needs someone to end it all for him. He asks for an ‘Ette because he knows women are capable of inflicting great violence with only love in their hearts. 2/26 – Farmer could use some prayers. A biopsy is scheduled soon. The dentist said he found a couple of suspect spots. After having had prostate cancer, anything like this really alarms him. 2/26 – Bluebell passed along news from grammie winger: “Tomorrow (2/27) I go in for an all day marathon of tests and consultations. Then Monday (3/2) they will attempt the surgery. It is quite complex and they are not exactly sure they can do it. If they can, it will be a ten hour procedure. I confess to being a little apprehensive. The Rev is a little overwhelmed poor soul. Fortunately my two kids have me covered. My daughter the nurse for the medical side, and my son for the spiritual side. He has been a rock.” 2/27 – turambar posted that his/her mom had surgery for a broken left hip. Lots of pins and a rod were required to fix her up. She is in recovery now and doing okay, but she has a long road ahead since she is 86 years old. Thanks for your prayers; turambar appreciated them so much. 2/28 – 2009Refugee asked for prayers for an older sister who was scheduled for brain surgery on 3/4. 2/28 – no one of any consequence requested prayers for the repose of his oldest friend, who died on 2/22. His friend had returned to the church in recent years. No one of any consequence will be giving the eulogy at his memorial mass. 2/28 – San Franpsycho asked for prayers for P’nina Bat Surel, who remains hospitalized and still is not stabilized. 2/28 – Fenelon Spoke asked for prayers for a friend, P, who is dealing with a pinched nerve and has to have surgery in a week or so. She also has a daughter, K, who just got out of the hospital having had major mental health problems. 2/28 – LinusVanPelt requested prayers for our troops, President Trump, and for Israel’s government and the IDF as well. 2/28 – Sock Monkey requests prayers for Mrs. Sock. She crashed and burned pretty hard while skiing Thursday. She went to work very sore and using a cane. 2/28 – JJ posted that his wife was discharged from her rehab facility and her prognosis post shunt surgery to regain strength and physical abilities is excellent. 3/2 – RickZ posted that he received bad news. He went to the ER with muscle pain and came out with a cancer diagnosis. He could use prayers for an extremely capable oncological team of cancer specialists, and that God guides their hands and minds as they work to rid Rick of cancer. And also that God would provide him peace and calm, and to help sustain him through this trial. 3/5 – Inogame posted the good news that baby #5 arrived! Baby was overdue by 12 days. Mom and baby are doing well. Baby was 9 pounds 8 ounces, and 21.5 inches long. For submission guidelines and other relevant info, please contact Annie's Stew, who is managing the prayer list.

Nice! Amidst the lamentations (including my own), I do have some good news. Last week I had blood work done and my A1C came back at 5.8. I am officially "pre-diabetic" and barely of out the "normal" window. No meds, just diet and exercise. Based on my metering, my glucose levels are still retreating, so I have every reason to expect that I'll be in normal range when I'm tested again in 90 days.
Blood pressure remains a little elevated, but the meds take care of it, though with the weather starting to break, I think I'll crack that when I can start running and biking again.
Thank you for all your prayers and God be with you.

The president ordered his White House staff in a tight arrangement with clearly delineated duties but gave them wide latitude to act. “It was almost scary how much power he delegated to you,” commented Attorney General Herbert Brownell.
The special White House organs and their meeting schedules reflected Eisenhower’s desire for order. His cabinet met every Friday, with Eisenhower beginning each meeting by observing a silent prayer. Once, when he forgot the ritual and cabinet secretary Maxwell Rabb slipped a note to remind him, Eisenhower blurted out, “Goddammit! We forgot the silent prayer!”

MisHum's advice at the top of the post is solid. I do nearly all those things every day. The "avoid people" is often difficult, but can be achieved with forethought.
I am cleaned, shaved, partly fed, dressed, and still planning to run out to my favorite grill for a coffee and a slice of cake. They don't open until eight am, though, so I've got time.
The furry thugs, Dagny the Duchess and Stirling the Duke of Vicksburg, are doing well. The latter is sprawled on a blanket atop the back of the couch. The former is around somewhere in one of her little caves. I'll be sure to check all the closets before I leave so I don't close her into one of them.

But one story does appear to be true; Starmer had announced that he was sending a destroyer, the HMS Dragon to aid in missile defense. However its departure has been delayed for an unknown amount of time because UK dockworkers say their contract only allows them to work from 9-5, no overtime, and no work on weekends at all.
So the Dragon is still tied up in port.

I haven't heard anything yet. The last I heard from her was when she was at the hospital on Friday of last week going through all the tests to see if she could have the surgery on Monday.

Starmer is a snake. He doesn't have the guts to actually kick the US out and break the alliance, but he desperately wants to.
And the British system gives parliament almost limitless power, so a bill could sail through in seconds authorizing emergency, mandatory overtime if that is what is wanted. Look at how fast Thatcher had the Royal Navy ready to sail to the Falklands in 1982.

Probably ten years ago at IHOP, I asked for some salsa to put on my eggs. They wanted to charge me for it! I objected, saying, "What, are you going to charge for salt and pepper next?" They took it off the bill with the poorest possible grace, and I have not graced their door since.

We have an enclosed back porch, and during the winter, we close both the back door and that porch door. A couple of times, our little black cat has been caught in "the air lock," as we call it, and has spent a desperate night trying to scratch her way in or out. It's heartbreaking. It's so hard to see her in there, though, in the dark.

My eldest is a super-narcolept. It manifested in high school, when she became very lazy, fell asleep in class, even in the shower. We ran tests, tried various meds and of course scanned her brain.
There were abnormalities in there, and my wife started freaking out, but when we met with the doctor, he laughed it off. He showed us the images on his monitor and then opened a special folder and began to whip through other pictures. Apparently there are lots of things in your skull besides a brain and they don't seem to do anything. He had curated a collection of them.
Turns out, there's plenty of room, and this is why (for example) people can get shot or have a spike penetrate the brain and not be seriously affected. The doc went on to say that we don't really know how prevalent it is because healthy people never get scanned, so the samples we have are very skewed. Unless it gets cheap enough that everyone goes in for a routine screening, we'll never really know.
Which is yet another reason not to put all your trust in SCIENCE.

When I accidentally shut either Dagny or Stirling into a closet, they apparently resign themselves to it and take a nap. When I open the door, they hurry out. But before you know it they've gone back in again, if I don't close the door.

I referenced my recent visit to IHOP here, I want to go back just because the staff was so friendly and engaging. I got the impression that a local entrepreneurial black family has taken over the local operation and runs it like their family business.

We keep the basement door closed, which is why both cats rush in whenever we open it and then have to be routed out. Sometimes they get stuck in there, though.
The bedtime routine is pretty set here, so if one isn't where she normally is, we'll check and see if she's trapped somewhere. We don't have to worry much about them getting out because the elder hates the world outside and will cry if you bring her into it. The younger one is curious, but not that curious.

Update on a prayer request for young Jasmine. She is the adopted daughter of a friend of a friend. Said friend was visiting last year when he met Jasmine for the first time. She was withdrawn, and kept to herself. My friend was told that she had been rescued from a very abusive environment, and the new blended family (recently married - he has three daughters, she has Jasmine) was desperately trying to help her.
No details on what, if any, therapy was pursued. I did pass along a suggestion from Tecumseh Tea (bless you, dear lady). My friend recently told me that he took all of the daughters, along with his eldest daughter, on an RV trip to Vegas. He assigned Jasmine as his copilot, and everyone had a great time. Jasmine was at first a bit skittish at the crowds and the casino noise, but his eldest made sure to be close and hold her hand whenever the other adults were otherwise occupied.
So from this telling, it appears that God has surrounded this young girl with an army of angels, and your prayers for her are being heard. May those listed here and whispered elsewhere receive similar affirmation..

Thanks for that post. When I had "emergency" surgery to drain my brain, everyone insisted it had to be acute. The consistency of the fluid dictated it.
But it cured the dizziness I had suffered from since summer. Put not all your trust in science, indeed.
As an aside, while in there, I had an operation to open up my right femoral artery, and got informed I had no flow in my left carotid. No worries, they said... and yet no one suggested I see a cardiologist.
I'm remedying that next week.

We used to do the tour, Original Pancake House in Dallas, we found a lesser version in Austin. If we didn't want the wait, IHOP, then occasionally Cracker Barrel, then we found First Watch and frequented there until Covid.
Since then, the enshittification has hit all of them with substance abusing wait staff front of the house, illegal aliens in the back of the house, high prices, low grade Sysco sourced food.
And we learned about metabolic dysfunction with the high carbs, seed oils, HFCS everywhere.
As the Boomers and Gen-X move on, their replacements in management just don't care since everything is numbers and algo driven - plus the labor pool has no work ethic to speak of.
OTOH, saving lots of money, food quality is much better, portion control where it should be, and not having to deal with crowds and the diseases they leave behind by making everything at home.

I have taken up my usual station in the Comfy Chair with a fuzzy blanket on my legs. Mittens has taken up her station on and around my feet. She has every aspect of this figured out. If I stop typing and set the laptop aside, she jumps off because I'm about to get up. When I grab the blanket and sit down, she comes running.
To mix things up, I also sit on the couch, and there again she knows where to sit. Her day is basically defined by eating, crapping and then going to all her favorite napping places. When they were young, I told them that taking all those naps tires a cat out, that's why she needs so much sleep.

I disagree. There are capable younger people, but they are hampered by a society that prefers to check boxes rather than reward excellence. Why strive when the promotion goes to the "diversity" crowd? And if you're part of that Elect, you get everything for free.
That is changing, and it will be fascinating to watch.
Also, keep in mind that the lockdown DESTROYED young people. There are millions of them that lost the key developmental years of their life in one of the most horrific social experiments ever undertaken.

Thank you for asking. She's doing well. She has another scan later this month. We're hoping her tumors have shrunk enough for her to discontinue the cancer meds for awhile. Side effects are dismal... sore spots all over her body, and even sores on the bottom of her feet. None life-threatening, though.
She had a 3 month span not taking them while her port healed this fall. She felt great! But the tumors did NOT shrink, either.
We so appreciate the prayers.

I get criobru, which is roasted and very coarsely ground. But it gets ground fine with my coffee beans.
Nibs would probably not brew well, unless you grind those up. Not sure how powder would do, though I've seen some purveyors of "ceremonial cacao" who have it powdered and pressed into blocks. I might try that, if I can be certain they haven't performed some sort of demonic "ceremonial" blessing over it.
Powdered cocoa has very high surface tension and is really hard to incorporate into water. I don't know how they get around that with the cacao powder.

It's a category error. They looked at how fast the Protestants collapsed and think that this can continue. What they missed is that the Mainline got woke because the Boomers finally had taken all of the leadership roles and subverted them from within. Younger people fled in droves, and the demographics bear this out. Most of the rump Mainline churches (like United Methodists, Anglicans, etc.) skew very old. They are also rich.
Pope Francis was the last hurrah of this liberal theological movement, and the flailing of the USCCB is evidence that they know their days are numbered. There are zero liberal Catholic seminarians today. I'm seeing this play out in my parish, btw. The Mass keeps getting more traditional, more old customs and practices are being restored (even altar rails!) and the liberals hate it.
But the kids are eating it up.

Given the Pixy Limit, it is sort of forces us to communicate in broad stereotypes. Before you were born I operated in a high trust monoculture (yeah, the urban area was a jungle, same as today) in Fly-Over Country. My peers all were in some form of retail outside HS. So we all did our school and worked as soon as the law allowed.
Didn't have illegal aliens taking up the gigs; had functional society that didn't integrate criminals and crack-heads, but marginalized them to the prisons or the gutter.
For those with college in mind, after hours and summer work would cover a huge chunk of the post HS education, now it is folly to assume it can, and with selective government funding and DEI, work was replaced with scoring social credits.
Then the MBAs went to work to enshittify the work place by bringing in the dregs and illegals and expecting HR selected "management" to merely keep them from burning the place down.
So good employers can't find good workers (no drug habits) and potential good workers don't have any good models.

Precisely.
The younger generation I see coming to Jesus are fleeing the online culture and the values they try to promote. They see the move to Christianity as a respite from all of that, which the liberal theologians have deviously try to frame in Christian doctrine. They have failed miserably not just because even a pedestrian reading of scripture uncovers their deceit, but because it is incompatible with the fundamental tenets of Christianity. You can’t conflate or obfuscate Christian teachings to a person who knows the love of Jesus Christ. It is unceasing and filling your heart with His Holy Sprit occupies what was a big void in your life that led you towards sin.

While I am only 29, I observed that world in its sunset and high school jobs were common. My father actually prohibited me from working while taking classes in college because he found it a distraction that delayed his graduation, but it was still an option. I did manage to convince him to let me take a summer job when I was only carrying a single class.
But yet, much of that is gone, though some of it may come back. Draining the illegals from the labor market will help as will the continued destruction of DEI, which is now reaping a rich harvest of social mockery.
Things are changing for the better, but like my blood glucose, it takes time to clean it all up.

Some whack job with neon green hair lecturing the congregation their lawnmower is destroying da Erf, that ain’t it. They want the real deal. It’s easy to see why long traditions upheld, to be a rock and not to roll, as Catholicism at least tries to, will see a lot of interest.

I know that you have a tick that forces you to irrationally blame all of your personal woes on an single demographic - as if Rush Limbaugh (Boomer) personally sought you out to destroy your life.
And being that you are RC, you categorically reject the Doctrines of Grace so you will hold to a different understanding of the doctrines of Regeneration and Sanctification.
But to know those doctrines helps to understand that this has been going on since 2 Peter 2 not since the US won WW2 and the victors had a lot of babies.
If you insist on blaming someone specifically - look no further than Charles Finney. (older than Boomer). He is the architect of the Big Box - No Apologetics - Wham Bam Jesus Jam - Petapalooza Baptisms - Manipulate Them Into The Kingdom, American Religion.
When you don't have transcendent catechisms, doctrine and apologetics, you have DIY Christianity - there is your enemy Right There. And Screwtape is there to exploit it.

‘Voter fraud is very rare’
I couldn’t believe that’s what she was told so I called my friend’s mom directly to confirm that she called the 202-224-3121 switchboard line to get transferred to his office…
She then texted me what she sent to herself so she didn’t forget the conversation.

Those formative years are probably why you are a Producer and can think for yourself. I'm not the only one who has noticed that those who had real responsibilities early in life - and those who would patiently guide the childish impulses out, make good citizens such as yourself.
I remember to this day when in my earliest days in a career, where an older guy pulled me aside in the break room and got my mind right - reminding me that I had no where near the world experiences of my co-workers and all that which follows.
Wish I learned that the first day I was hustling grocery bags at the Kroger on my 16th Birthday.

Prior to COVID, the "do good work, get promoted" strategy was the norm at Chrysler. At least from the time I started there in 2011. It all changed with the COVID lockdowns. There was a Great Reset.
Chrysler laid off all contract engineers and went "lean" for a year or two. Then after the merger and formation of Stellantis, the outsourcing to India and Mexico began. My department of 200 had been 100% in-office, local engineers. Over the past 5 years, it has changed to 75% outsourced to India. In other areas of the company, there are some full departments of 50 people who are all in India or all in Mexico.
Our product development department has a policy that for every local engineer in the department, there must be 3-4 cheap outsourced Indians.

Keep in mind that my degree is in political science, so just as you speak in broad terms, so I also use shorthand for demographic trends. If you look down using the "30,000 feet view," you see that swings in the electorate are not so much about issues and changing opinions as changes to the electorate itself.
This is also apparent in how institutions function, particularly in places like higher education, where gatekeeping may take 20 years for its full effect to be felt.
It is undeniable that (for example) liberal Catholicism was very popular among seminarians formed during the 1960s and 1970s. It is now extinct, and partly because of the retirement cliff, the newly ordained are having a much larger impact because there is such a shortage, so instead of remaining vicars for a few years, they are getting their own parishes after only a couple of years.

Having observed this effect in organizations over the years, I’ve concluded that for an organization, having too much money is a far greater curse than having too little. Everyone becomes comfortable with the idea that they can hire everything out, and that they themselves no longer need to do anything at all.
I know of a couple of once large local churches that are now essentially little more than funeral parlors with long waiting lists.

Organized Bible Studies are overrated. Maybe BSF, just because they don't put up with nonsense.
The most promising (but it wasn't) was a regular study from a Systematic Theology book. Its like the classroom only worse, people of all different skill and knowledge levels are in the room and one can only cater to the lowest common denominator for so long.
So many just turn into taking turns going around the room reading a handful of passages before letting the person next to you read the next few - then answering some MadLib questions (questions that are pretty much the same week after week, just exchanging the names of a prophet or a city)

My current parish went through a cycle like that. Very wealthy, very old. The campus location was sort of a side gig (used to be its own parish, but was absorbed due to priest shortage and dwindling Mass attendance).
Covid was like a wrecking ball, and even when the lockdowns were over, Mass attendance was low and donations also bottomed out. Add in scandal with the pastor and it was the prefect storm.
The replacement Pastor was younger (about my age), much more orthodox, and he began to systematically sweep away the 1970s decorations and return to traditional icons and modes of worship. This did not sit well with the older crowd, who stopped showing up. But the young people love it, and so we're in a place where more people are going, but finances have not yet recovered. Still, thats also a function of how many young people haven't yet hit their stride.

This is a mind-blowing charge. This literally blew us away."
"If I hadn't seen this myself, I'm not sure I believed it. I went through it myself and mapped it. And Elon is right. This is true. The defaults in the system from social security to all of the benefit programs have been set to max inclusion, MAX PAY for these people and minimum collection."

The alternative is to be Hip and Cool and then get into a financial death spiral because whatever you were pushing to get them in, you need to keep pushing to get them to stay to cover the mortgage, salaries, and other running expenses.
Rich churches don't have that impediment. I kind of like where I'm going now. Pretty low frills. We have a fellow congregant that needed a new septic tank installed and didn't have the wherewithal so the pastor texted a few of us to work something out.
We did.

Hubby made delicious pancakes this morning with our favorite Vermont syrup.
Today is reset day, puzzling, husband paints and later he will tolerate Siamese mah Jong with me.
3 months until hubby retires. We are both excited but a bit unsure what this next chapter will bring. Also doing one more scouting in summer to another location to see if we can find a home Iin our dream location.
Hope everyone has a beautiful day.

We both had been feral, but were horrified at having kids as bad as we were. My dog tags tell the story of the faith journey: non-Denom Protestant, Lutheran, RC.
I love the Church, and I love the transformation my conversion is still working on me. Now I do snark, but that is the language of my people. Our pastor used "retarded" in his homily last week. We can't help it.
And faith has helped my kids succeed in ways I never could, which is an additional blessing and further vindication to m. I am passionate because I want others to share this beautiful treasure I have received.

The sins I accumulated during my "lost years" were deeply shameful, and I do not want them to carry that burden. The sacrament of Reconciliation is been greatly comforting to me, helping reform and heal my diseased soul. If such a wretch as I can find consolation, mercy and forgiveness, anyone can.
It warms my heart to see my kids staying well away from the things I did, and I sometimes chuckle at what they consider major transgressions.

Many moons ago I had the misfortune to have a work assignment in D.C. for a several months. All in all, not the worst place for friendly people (that would be the Boston area), but one day went to some restaurant for lunch and the waitress asked us if we'd like to hear the specials for that day. I politely declined (we all knew what we wanted), not wanting to waste her time with the spiel. This, apparently, was taken as some sort of personal affront, whereupon the manager was called. A truly bizarre situation.

Never had that happen. A waitress here might walk off in a huff for some ungodly reason, but the last thing she'd want is to have a manager called.
There are exceptions here in the low- to medium price range. Strangely, those are the ones I go back to and tip extra well when I leave.

Daily Tech News 7 March 2026
Top Story
- New NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman has killed the Exploration Upper Stage project for the SLS and will be open to bids for a replacement that might actually exist some day. (Ars Technica)
Development of the Exploration Upper Stage has been in progress since 2016, with the initial launch date set for 2021. It's five years behind schedule and with $3.5 billion spent so far - nearly ten times the initial estimate - is no close to reality.
The lead contractor for the project was Boeing, for what it's worth.
Tech News
- Lenovo's new ThinkPad T14 Gen 7 received a 10 out of 10 score for repairability on iFixit. (Liliputing)
It comes in both Intel (Panther Lake) and AMD (Ryzen 400 series) models, and uses LPCAMM2 rather than soldered memory. The display, keyboard, and battery are easily swapped out, as are the memory and SSD. The Thunderbolt ports are modular - there's a little adaptor that connects the socket to a matching socket on the motherboard, so if you trip over the cable you break a $2 part rather than the entire $2000 laptop.
A welcome change.
- Indie game Slay the Spire 2 has 393,000 players on Steam right now. (WCCFTech)
That's a thousand times more than much-hyped TenCent-backed title High Guard, which received top billing at the Video Game Awards. (Which are, apparently, bigger than the Super Bowl, though I resolutely watch neither.)
Video games are alive and well. The video game industry is dying of self-inflicted wounds. Latest heir to the Concord crown is expected to be Marathon, though it's been out for two days and isn't dead yet.
- AI startup Hayden AI is suing its former CEO over alleged instances of fraud and theft and pettifoggery and exaggerating on his resume. (Ars Technica)
The mopery and dopery appears to go back a ways:According to Carson's LinkedIn profile, he completed a doctorate from Waseda University in Tokyo in 2007.
Did he use Cluely to get the job?"That is a lie," the complaint states. "Carson does not hold a PhD from Waseda or any other university. In 2007, he was not obtaining a PhD but was operating 'Splat Action Sports,' a paintball equipment business in a Florida strip mall."
-
Things are bad, but not that bad. (Tom's Hardware)
Yes, prices of 32GB memory kits did hit $4000 on Newegg, up almost tenfold in a single day.
It only affected a couple of ranges of G.Skill memory - 27 products in all - including some bundles containing that specific memory. Affected prices should be back to the new normal now.

Funny thing about Imposter Syndrome: sometimes it's because they really don't know what they're doing, they tried the ol' "fake it 'til you make it" when they shouldn't have, and their subsequent freak-out is justifiable and correct.

Yeah, they're "special."

However, I'm convinced (without proof) that there are two other categories of Unfiltered Ones: those with brain damage from chronic drug and alcohol use, and then the selfish ones that just give themselves permission to be childish when they're finally able to stop having to keep a job.

Both Queen Elizabeth carriers are tied to piers for the foreseeable future.
All Astute class attack submarines are similarly immobilized.
In fact, the Royal Navy can deploy only ONE 'major' combatant to guard Britain's base at Cyprus, which is the eastern Med and not the far distant Pacific, is HMS Dragon a Type 45 destroyer.

I’m no government finance expert, but isn’t this sort of thing done with fixed price contracts? I know there is usually a little bit of wiggle room over time, particularly in regards to monetary inflation but a ten fold increase should fall on Boeing, not the government. Plus, it’s behind schedule to say the least. Whst the hell happened to Boeing??

Got a 1938 Walther ppk in .32 caliber. The decocking scares the bejesus out of me. Bought a modern version in .22LR for Smash to use for range practice. Nice weapon, but the walther decocking is skeery AF. Almost like trusting a tri-color junker cage with a smashed up front end's turn signal, when on a motorcycle.

1. First/second/third cousin is how many generations back you have to go to find a common ancestor with someone of your own generation.
2. Once/twice removed for younger generations is how many generations decended they are from your cousins.
3. Cousins are reciprocal. If you're in a younger generation and someone's first cousin twice removed (i.e., the grandchild of their first cousin), then they are also *your* first cousin twice removed.

One thing I am amused by, it is originally in German, and the version I have is dubbed. I turned the subtitles on and the two differ significantly in the words they choose.
And sometimes one is better then the other but...consistently they still express the same thoughts.
German is about the closest language to English, so it is interesting at just how much freedom you have to express a thought differently even in a sister langauge.

No. Shit. Dad was a Methodist country preacher. One of his church members was a retired Louisianan state trooper, and former General Paton body guard. Every photo of Patton, this dude was off side with a .45 Thompson. (And for Besreker) a Harley MP Scout bike. I met him in '93 when Dad drug me to breakfast one time when home from gw1. He gaveDad the handgun for repairing his grandkid's quad. No. Shit. That's how it got transferred in ow ership.
I cleaned it up, made it safe to fire again, cleaned it after ~200 rounds, and put it away. Serial # traces to a LOT number issued to Whermact Polizei in 1938.

I am unsure how anyone got film of my father with his black angus cows (he had other breeds,too, I think trying to create a hybrid). My brothers and husband said his Marine training came out with his herd, altho he never cussed around me or ladies.
I love moo cows! They are nitwits but I love them! The first morning in our new house he had built my mother got out of the shower to a crowd of them peering in the bathroom window from the front porch.
Love the almost made it off the ground helicopter. I was waiting for some decapitation action.

The baby projection from all orifices. Our first night home with #1 son my mother was told we had this and to go to bed. She heard my husband yell from the diningroom/temporary nursery:"He's peed in his ear! What do I do now!"
Baby boys I can at least predict from their warning device. Baby girls I cannot and both grandgirlies have peed on their changing table. This one now and then harfs, too, but she's really cute and smart and smiles a lot when not doing all of that. She discovered my husband's unshaved cheek a week ago and perfers it to clean shaven.

That was fast. It's the old paradox: permissive gun laws actually drive gun prices down, creating a bear market. Fear of confiscation drives them up, so Obama and Biden were actually huge friends of the firearm industry.

I have a .380 PPKs I got in the 80's. I don't know, mine is a fairly unreliable piece of shit, which was shocking actually. I haven't tried a bunch of different ammo to see if there is the magic bullet for it. I tried a few different brands, and I eventually tossed it back in the box and was done with it. I have to pull it out of mothballs one day and try some more ammo brands.

Ferritin is a protein that stores iron in the body and is crucial for maintaining iron levels.
Ferritin levels are often assessed through blood tests to determine iron storage; low levels indicate iron deficiency, which can lead to anemia.

High ferritin levels may suggest iron overload or inflammation, as ferritin can be mobilized during acute inflammatory reactions.

A ferritin test can provide insights into various health conditions, making it an important diagnostic tool.

Sometimes in genealogy you come across a "Mth cousin Nth removed", you review their life story, and you wished that you could pick a much larger value for N.
The beauty of genealogy is there is an unwritten rule to this effect: "If you come across a relative who is living, you are under no obligation to initiate contact with that person."

High ferritin levels may suggest iron overload or inflammation, as ferritin can be mobilized during acute inflammatory reactions.
If you are a post menopausal woman and your ferritin level is extremely high, immediately get a genetic test for hemochromatosis. Your body has begun accumulating iron as you no longer menstruate, and that is bad news.

Later I discovered that nearly everything in Australia will kill you and was thankful. Florida was bad enough.
I hate snakes. Once when the boys were small they went on a little tour of a botanical garden with others and thought we'd be thrilled. It is the only time in my life I hyperventilated.
A thick jungle with little puddles next to the creek. Visions of snakes and gators.
I was making such loud wheezing sounds that when we popped out at the end a man was taking water samples from a bridge and stared at us.
We came to a narrow portion of the creek that I could easily jump but I stepped right in it running instead as I was looney tunes at that point.
My husband said he did not recognize me. A lesson learned or leared that day to never take me again into a jungle.

No, Pappaw got friendly with a nurse when he was wounded in France. As far as we can tell he had no idea. Her mom would not tell her any more than that he was a GI.
She carried Pappaw's picture in her wallet til the day she died though. Never married.
She found my uncle and Dad who are both into geneology and had done the 23 and me. Said they were a close match and she was looking for her father. Said she had a picture she found in her Mom's wallet when she passed away of who she assumed was her father. It was Pappaw staring out (one of those photo booth kind of things.) Eerie.

The thing about the DNA test in genealogy is that its results are out there for all and sundry to see (as it were), and you potentially could be peppered with requests to talk / meet with folks who may mean well, but will take up a lot of your time.
By records' based, I meant their paper trail -- censuses, states' records of births, baptisms, confirmations, marriages, deaths and burials, and so forth. I am over one half Norwegian and believe me, those folks recorded everything. Then they moved into or through Minnesota one hundred years or more ago, and those folks recorded everything.

We recently connected with an entire missing branch of our family from that genealogy thing. My grandmother's brother and his line. Nobody really ever talking about him. He was 15 years older, and fought in WWI, and we're still piecing it together how he drifted off. I have 3 new 2nd cousins that I never knew about, and they didn't know about us. One of my second cousins that I only met a few times was trying to find out if there was any family left in italy since she's going there this year. I could have told had she asked, which is a big no since they have all been here for a few generations, but she did track down a missing part of the family in the process.

I want all snakes dead. We had a 5' black snake who lived in the hedge in front of our house along the walk every summer. I had to check the mail going out the garage. My husband claimed they ate rats but this one did not get the memo as we had a rat in our attic once.
He/she once got in the garage with me and I was very brave and screamed (do they have ears?) and threw a broom at it and it left. If it got in the house we'd have to move or burn it down.
One of my BF in FL, who is acting weird since Trump 2024 as a Dim does not kill anything. She once "saved" a coral snake to show the neighbor children and called the zoo or someone. I would have sent my husband out to kill it instead.

Who would put up with that for a bag of prunes. But that was not all. Passing the cart pack parked at the eating tables on way out, there sat a cart, one box in it, a box of womens' Depends. Torture for Depends, torture for prunes. OR NOT? It's the way we entertain ourselves.

So, started watching the new Guy Richie Sherlock Holmes series... and suddenly realized I LIKED the story... but... also hated it....
Are you referring to the two movies he did that starred Robert Downy, Jr. and Jude Law as Holmes and Watson? They both were entertaining in their own right, although the second one ("Game of Shadows") had far more foitprints from Doyle's stories in it than had the first.
I enjoyed the interplay between the two lead characters. They needed not be Holmes snd Watson, as you said. An original story free of Doyle in all respects would have served equally well.

Honestly, I don't know if she knows about all of this. I don't think he has mentioned it to her.
She was apparently quite wild in her younger years.
The man he thought was his dad certainly suspected/knew it, though - only left nephew $25 in his will. It was confusing to him at the time.

I can literally jump vertically with feet moving before I land like Wile E. Coyote.
I did this once in FL while we were walking and a type of lizard, that is not a snake, popped out of the grass.
Out here I was walking with a son and husband and son pointed one off trail. I walked/rain about 50' and he said we should tie one to the back of my shirt for cardio each morning.
I sometimes don't like my family.

On my desktop, when I am viewing the home page of an article, there sometimes (all the time?) appears a small and floating check box midway down the right hand side of the screen with a short text whose content I cannot not recall (and I am not now on a laptop to be able to check what it is).
Under those circumstances, if I attempt to click on the "Comments" link nothing happens when that link is at the same level as, or below the floating check box. I simply cannot raise the comments' view for that thread.
However, if I scroll the screen so that the "Comments" link is decidedly above the level of the floating check box, I can bring forth the comnents view for that thread.

She once hired a French guy to trace one branch and he and a friend came to the USA and stopped by the farm for dinner. My father was worried he was a serial killer (where I get it from), but it was ok. She'd met him in Normandy.
She found out my father's grandfather was a bigamist who had another family in LA. My great-grandmother threw all his clothes and stuff out into the front yard when she found a love letter from a woman in his jacket. They never divorced as it was 1913 and people then thought she was a widow.
Imagine the surprise of the family in LA when mother told the mother that they were perhaps not legally married after he died and had a daughter.
Until then my father and aunt thought their grandmother was widowed (she was dead by then before all this came out). Otherwise my family is fairly normal and not inbred.

She's a nurse and I met her at the med center. She somehow put the snake in a garbage can.
We are total opposites as she'd rather die than wear make up and I won't leave the house without mascara unless the house is on fire. We have gotten along well since the hanging chads and she found out I voted Bush. This seems different.
They have no children and are well traveled and cultured and all that stuff. I like them but she has some weird ideas like this. Maybe she's now Buddist or something. Do they kill coral snakes?
They are in FL and have been very quiet since the election. We last saw them when our son got married in June 2024. Dunno.
I refuse to be ghosted so I will bug her when I am there again. If nothing else to irritate her. We don't talk politics, so maybe her friend, the wife of a former UNESCO Brit diplomat told her not to talk to me.Her husband is a weird dude and wears socks with sandals on the beach.

Thd missus was all wild about doing ger family tree for about a decade or so.
First she found out that her father's father was not the person in whose home he was raised (and her father suspected this already and pretty much knew who was his father -- "Your grandmother was wild when she was young").
Then she found out, and briefly saw actual evidence for (a baptismal record), that her mother's mother was not the woman in whose home she was raised, but actually was the woman who was the oldest daughter in that household.
She pretty much dropped her pursuit of her family's history at that point.

I would’ve done that. I don’t mess with the poison ones, but when I find an ordinary snake I usually try to catch it and look at it, then let it go. Snakes are cool, never bothered me.
And I would never kill a coral snake, they’re incredibly beautiful, little works of art! I’d relocate it if I found one too close to people.

One of my 2nd great grandmothers unknowingly married a bigamist (he was supposed to have divorced his first wife) after her first husband died.
She only found out about her second husband's perfidy after he passed away and she applied for his Civil War veteran's benefits. Then, in tge investigation to establish that she indeed was owed that pension, it came out that her marriage to him was not valid because he was a bigamist.
Then it came letter that announced denial of the benefit for her and thd reason why arrived at the home of the sister with whom she was staying. That very day she was discovered on her bed, dead, in her bedroom.
I am convinced that the news of her having hitched her wagon to a bigamist and that she would be bereft of support that she had expected to have was what killed her.

Double cousins happen when a pair of siblings marries another pair of siblings. One of my grandmother's sisters was married to one of my grandfather's brothers, so my father has double-first-cousins. (And I have double-first-cousins-once-removed.) Double cousins, because my Dad's mom's sister's kid, and his dad's brother's kid, are the same kid.

Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini (founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran) on June 6, 1989, after his death on June 3.
As the body was being transported in an open wooden coffin, the coffin was dropped or overturned multiple times.
The body fell out onto the ground, partially exposing it (feet and parts of the body visible as the shroud was torn).
Revolutionary Guards fired warning shots in the air, used hoses to disperse people, and struggled to retrieve the body.

Hungary gave citizenship to ethno-Hungarians from neighboring countries. The US did not want to include them in the Visa-free system to visit the US. Because....gypsies.
Now Hungary thinks that an EU citizenship or papers has nothing to do with being European. Which is correct, and the US government is trying to figure this out too.
BUT...about 2 million Hungarians now live in other EU countries and the UK.

Incidentally, instead of a signature guitar, you can buy a signature pre-loaded pickguard with pickups, wiring, and controls for $350; you can get an entire Squier Stratocaster guitar for less, but it actually looks like a good deal for tone-chasers. For an artist of his renown, a signature guitar could easily break the $2K mark -- and that's the plebe version. The fancy version could be over $5K. We're better off this way.

The only problem is that Gilmour didn't start using emg pickups until the mid 80's, so its not his earlier sound. The best thing to do is find a highway 1 strat, and load it up with custom shop '69 pickups and you'll be right in the area of his early stuff, or use a seymour duncan SSL when you want to get into his later 70's tone. I see highway 1 strats for in the $800-1000 area, and they are miles...light years..ahead of a squire. They are almost vintage like in their build, made in USA, but they have larger fret wire, 22 frets, flatter fingerboard radius, high mass bridge blocks. Its a much way better way to go.

He thinks he'll get another truck (or whatever) and drive to [next victim's place] and be able to LEECH off another family member.
I am disgusted by this. Wtf. I will NOT help him reinstate his DL. Nope, he's a road hazard on his own, and needs to quit driving.
He should just settle into some kind of housing and stay TF there. Take the bus. Live his life. Make new friends. Stay off the road! And accept that this is his new normal!

I don't think the highway 1 had the grease bucket. Up to about 2006-2007 maybe, they had the small vintage headstock, nitro lacquer finish, and vintage string spacing. 2007-up they had the large headstock, slightly narrower string spacing and way hotter pickups. I have a few from each era. They are amazing guitars, and I don't even play strats, but when I was getting them they were dirt cheap. I bought one new for $550, and most of my used ones were $3-350. I couldn't stop buying them they were so damn cheap. It was like the best kept secret. I was getting different custom shop pickups and setting each one up for a certain era sound. Of course now the word is out and they are more. I think I got 6 of them. 6 or 7 maybe. Looking around the web I saw one for $700, and I think one for $675. Maple or rosewood board. It does not pay to by import anything and the prices you can get those for.

When the Thunderbirds were in town, they'd spank the shit out of the entire campus.
Then, there was the Army. Doing rooftop repelling. With nobody noticing. Yea.. they were that good.

Third was most amusing. Flyover by a B-1 at an Air Force/BYU football game. Really, REALLY low. We were up near the rim of the stadium, noise was close to hearing-damage level if not at it (everyone covered their ears). B-1 was in wings-back configuration and really moving. We smelled the exhaust. Pilot got in hot water later. Crowd loved it.

In 2005, the flight line at Alpena CRTC was much closer to the buildings along it, all of which have been subsequently replaced. Anyhoo, arriving early to my work station on a chilly morning, I was gratified when one of the F-16s fired up its engine and bathed me in nice, warm jetwash. Downright cozy.

I grew up in Las Vegas in the '60s and '70s about a dozen miles from Nellis Air Force Base -- home of The Thunderbirds -- and we got to frequently watch them practice their stunt-flying overhead.
In '89 I moved to the Silicon Valley and Bay Area for work, and the Blue Angels would fly over downtown San Francisco and The Bay during "Fleet Week."
Back when most Democrats still loved America, and everybody working would go outside to see them.
Damn, makes me wanna cry ...

Because of this ornithological handicap, penguins have historically been confined to the nether regions of the planet. After the Nazi-penguin collaboration from the 30s up until the early 60s,
and the subsequent rise of Big Penguin, the mephitic menace has spread across the southern hemisphere, with it's beady little eye on the remainder of the so far untainted northern portion of Earth.

We arrived late and had to park quite a distance away. As we were walking into the airfield, some military aircraft was diving straight down from several thousand feet right above us -- and then went horizontal just above the main parking lot.
The vibration was so violent during that maneuver that all of the car alarms went off at the same time ... it was hilarious.

Loudest thing ever was an AV-8B in the hover at Miramar. Unbelievably loud. Next was the sound of F-14s making arrested landings on the USS JFK (even on the top of the island). They gun their engines upon touchdown in case they miss the cables.
Third was most amusing. Flyover by a B-1 at an Air Force/BYU football game. Really, REALLY low. We were up near the rim of the stadium, noise was close to hearing-damage level if not at it (everyone covered their ears). B-1 was in wings-back configuration and really moving. We smelled the exhaust. Pilot got in hot water later. Crowd loved it.

I saw Ace talking about some of this earlier, and what I would like to see him do is pick standard Ace Style Guide names for these people and ONLY use them, never the names of the grifters so they are denied free advertising and web presence.
I was trying to make that point when he was getting worked up, but his fur was up and he wasn't listening. Maybe some of the COBs can explain it to him that there is actually an entire genre of advertising based on "YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT [BLANK] JUST DID! IT'S TERRIBLE! and then you click on the link to find out how awful it is.
That is their business model now. Feel free to trash them, but instead of using the right names, settle on Ace-approved (tm) substitutes.

And speaking of bank angle, it'd be nuts to really turn a seriously expensive B-2 that steeply. The odds of pulling a Lt. Col. Bud Holland would be unacceptable.

At the request of Ecuador, the Department of War executed targeted action to advance our shared objective of dismantling narco-terrorist networks.
This operation demonstrates the power of coordinated action and sends a clear message: narco-terrorist networks will not find refuge in our hemisphere."

They could still walk across the water body's floor and right back up o to land, though. You'd need a moat/bailey style of reinforced defenses to whack them as theynattempted to ascend the walls. Basic 3rd century defense of a stronghold tactics.

The most humiliated I've ever been was when I was driving a girl home from a date and I couldn't get up her street in ice. I tried like 3 times and would slide back. I thought the date was great until then. I was walking up with her she said bye. I said I would carry her she said forced a smile and said no thanks and walked the rest of the way while I stood there like a dork.

1930s. Iirc, Elliot Ness was involved in the manhunt. The method matched the Black Dahlia murder (although i think the Cleveland victims were dudes) so they think it might be the same guy. Regardless, never caught.

"The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly" is nominally set in the American west, but the lens through which the Civil War is shown is that of the Spanish Civil War. The bit where the two armies are slogging it out over a river crossing is based on the Battle of the Ebro. Look it up or buy my book.
Adding an additional complication, the Nationalists (who were rebels) are actually identified with the Union because they won. Of course, the final showdown took place in a war cemetary.

That's what I mean. The crew, director, everyone was like "Oh, civil war? Yeah, we get that." And so it's more about their civil war than ours. The bit about Tuco's brother being a priest and the wounded being tended by monks is kind of weird in an American context, but of course Spanish Protestants in 1936 would have been found only in the International Brigades.

Franco's government was still censoring film at the time, not as hard as in the 50's and 60's so there was a thirst for Spanish civil war film.
I just bobbled over the priests because the Good the Bad and the Ugly was set in the Southwest and a lot of the locals were Catholic and there would have been a sizeable Catholic infrastructure.

Much of it works as being part of the American Southwest, but the troop densities were not high enough for massive attritional assaults. If a position was strongly held, it could be bypassed. This bothered me when I first saw it, but after digging into the Spanish Civil War (don't forget to buy your copy of Long Live Death today!) I realized that they were going off of the Ebro campaign, which was a bloody, back-breaking attritional slog. Spain's Verdun. Lots of criticism for Franco in choosing to push back the Republican salient vs making an attack elsewhere, but it does parallel Grant's siege of Petersburg, pinning down forces that could not be moved elsewhere. When the Ebro front was restored, Franco's subsequent offensive into Catalonia completely shattered Republican resistance.

There was a Spanish civil war zombie movie that was called in English The Valley of the Dead, and in Spanish Malnazidos
It has pretty accurate uniforms, and it is a Zombie movie where an insane German army unit is creating zombies to fight back the Republican forces, and zombies can't tell the difference

Spanish Civil War surplus is fascinating, and I own one of the few Mosins made in 1938 that made it into Spain. This is somewhat controversial, but there is solid evidence that there was a shipment from the USSR to Spain in early 1938, and there are at least two other documented examples of rifles marked "1938" that came from Spain.
It's generally held that only Mosins marked 1936 or 1937 saw service in Spain. Of course, lots of older ones also showed up there as the Soviet emptied their stocks of ancient weapons. I saw a 19th Century Mosin with a beautiful Czarist crest go for a small fortune and it was clearly out of Franco's weapon haul.

The U.S. Navy is preparing to deploy a third carrier strike group to the Middle East near Iran in the coming weeks, according to a report by Fox News, with the USS George H. W. Bush (CVN-77) and her Carrier Strike Group having now completing their Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX), expected to depart from Naval Station Norfolk in Virginia sometime before the end of March for a regularly scheduled deployment to the U.S. 5th Fleet Area-of-Responsibility. However, due to the ongoing hostilities with Iran, it is not known if she will relieve the USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-7
, who entered the Red Sea on Thursday and has been deployed now for nearly 11-months, or if she will arrive to further reinforce the U.S. Navy in the Middle East.Posted by: Methos at March 06, 2026 09:30 PM (vSvIl)

The Week in Woke
Wall Street ApesVideo here. The Retard with the Hero Worship Complex found a new hero to worship, retardedly:
@WallStreetApes Everyone needs to be aware of this Journalist Avery Daye exposes the history of Minnesota Rep Ilhan Omar "Ilhan Omar -- I figured not enough people know about her family's history, so let's recap: Her dad and her grandfather were both high-ranking military officials in the Barre regime, which killed over 200,000 people. They're most famous for the Isaaq genocide -- it was the worst of the worst: aerial bombings, executions, man-made famine. People massively suffered under this regime, with the help of people like Ilhan Omar's family who supported the regime and carried out this, this horror. -- They have family ties to this guy known as the Butcher of Hargeisa, and his whole shtick was "kill all but the crows."" "So the suffering of the people of Somalia was so bad that there was a civil war and the regime was overthrown. Her family fled first to Kenya and then Minnesota, claiming they're like these asylum seekers. These poor, poor people. No, no, no, no. They were fleeing to escape being held accountable for what they did. She was not oppressed. Her family, they were the oppressors." "So for the Democratic Party to have her as a representative is insane to me -- and the way that they've like rebranded her as all this poor refugee? No, no. She wasn't a refugee of war. Her family created the war."
What a complicated, retarded way to say "Me like Tucker now, me no like Trump no more."
Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene
@FmrRepMTG Mar 5 Tucker would beat Trump if he ran for President and Trump tried to violate the constitution and tried to run again for a third term.
In 2009, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin created a sensation when she claimed that government-run healthcare would inevitably lead to the creation of bureaucratic boards responsible for deciding who should and shouldn't receive treatment. It's from this charge that we got the term "death panel," which became a near constant reference during the congressional debate over the passage of the Affordable Care Act. Thanks for reading And another thing ...! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work. Palin was called a loon and a crank. Even today, a simple search on Microsoft's Copilot for the date when the former governor coined the term "death panel" carefully notes that her accusation quickly became a viral talking point despite "being widely debunked as a myth." Fifteen years after Palin's remark, disability advocate Krista Carr testified before members of the Canadian parliament that her organization receives weekly reports of medical assistance in dying (MAID) services being suggested unprompted to disabled individuals during routine, non-terminal care visits. Who could have predicted that government-controlled healthcare, combined with legalized euthanasia, would eventually lead to the sick and uncomfortable being told to kill themselves? Where does Palin go for her apology? Canada, whose lawmakers, celebrities, and influencers often boast about their "free" healthcare and stringent anti-gun laws, recorded an astonishing 16,499 MAID suicides, or legalized doctor-assisted suicides, in 2024, following 22,535 such requests that year. In 2023, there were approximately 15,500 MAID suicides. To put things into perspective, 2023's recorded figure gives us a per capita rate of 37 MAID suicides per 100,000 people. During the same year, the United States reported 17,927 firearm homicides, resulting in a per capita rate of five gun-related murders per 100,000 people.
In Spain: The Barcelona City Council has instructed its citizens that they may not dance nor play music during Ramadan, because it would offend the Muslims. They say that Spanish citizens must "adapt" to their Muslim neighbors' culture.

If a private in the Army has to get an agency check and SF46 or whatever it is, background check, loyalty check, priors, investigative reports
Then so do the people who want to run for office. Make it public. If they can’t pass an agency check, then they can’t run for office.
The way it stands now, if someone wins a federal election, they are “deemed” to have passed a background check automatically. This is complete bullshit.

They don’t GAF about any of that. They’re crazy, and crazy is communicable, it spreads. That’s part of the kink. They want to destroy what they can’t have, if they can’t have it, you don’t get it either. Jealousy and Envy take up most of their hard drive.

She had a great life, and I guess still does. But she put up with a lot of shit after McCain chose her. She handled the supposed gotcha question about the Bush Doctrine. She answered perfectly, then the old fart looked over his glasses like she got the question wrong, and like he was the old genius teacher.
She was a real hero, and hopefully she lives long and prospers even more.

Our cats hated those after surgeries. Whenever we put anything on them -- sometimes jokingly clothing -- they seemed to just give up the ghost, surrender, and lay down.
Both of our elderly sibling cats got CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) around age 13 (apparently very common) and died at 16.
One time our girly-cat was stumbling all over the place like she was drunk and when looking her in the face -- and had nasstigmus.
We had a litter box downstairs and I was afraid she was going to fall down the stairs and break her neck! So I took her downstairs into a mudroom with the litter box and tried to spend the night with her, but she was a nervous mess -- and neither of us got any sleep.
Next day to the vet for another $1,000 plus bill ... (we ended up spending $50,000 on those two beautiful kitty cats).

Haven't had time to check for follow-ups or confirmations, but it was reported this morning that the IAF used 50 planes dropping 100 bombs on an underground complex in Tehran. Plausible, as they used 40 planes/80 bombs when they snuffed the Marshmallow Mullah (Nasrallah) in Beirut.
Mounting an operation like this, at that range - just amazing. Assuming these were penetrating 2K-lb JDAMs, as I think were used in Beirut.
IDF chief the other day said "more surprises" were in store for the next phase of operations. It's like waiting for the next episode of a fantastic TV series, if I had a TV I guess. But with more explosions.

That guy was a prick. Aside from the bootlegging during Prohibition, there's the whole episode with is daughter Rosemary, where he had her lobotomized because he thought she'd likely become a family embarrassment, due to her being either mildly retarded or depressed (the story varies) and Joe was afraid that she'd go out and screw boys and get pregnant. The doctors fucked it up and she was rendered almost a vegetable. Joe never visited her in the nursing home for the rest of her life and kept the lobotomy secret even from her own mother.
Ironically, Joe had a stroke after JFK was elected and spent about 4-5 years as a near-vegetable himself before he died. Serves the fucker right.

So I'm putting up an open thread because it's been a busy week and I want to chillax.
I watched this over the weekend. It's pretty great. If you can't watch it today, come back to this post over the weekend and check it out. There are nine parts and they're all worth the watch. Here's quick ten-minute recap of the whole project. I don't know if I'd recommend that, though. If the subject interests you, I'd recommend just watching all nine parts so as not to spoil the final form of the remodel.Comments

"Most younger Iranians don't know who he is. I don't think they see him as a symbol of anything.
Older ones who hate the Ayatollah might still remember the monarchy wasn't that great either. They had a not-so-nice secret police that made life miserable for anyone who didn't like the monarchy.
==
This is full on bullshit. hundreds of thousands of young people in Iran who went to protest the ayatollahs, and die for it, were yelling, "this is the Final Battle, Pahlavi will return". They know exactly who Pahlavi is.
The myth of "secret police" and other bad deeds of the late shah was agitprop that Marxist and Communists, trained in USSR were using to overthrow the shah, and who did overthrow Constitutional Monarchy of Iran with the help of of Ayatollah. Who later went on a murder spree. The so called "secret police" was internal security who tried to get rid of jihadist and USSR infiltrators.

Babylon 5 was like that. They had a very limited budget, so they had to make their sets durable to last several seasons. Like Star Trek, they redressed the sets as needed to resemble various parts of the space station.

This is fake/satirical. No credible reports place Esmail Qaani in Israel or confirm he defected or aided assassinations. Recent unverified rumors (from Arab media, social posts) suggest Iran suspects him of Mossad ties and may have detained/executed him internally amid war fallout—but he's repeatedly "died" in rumors only to resurface. The image is a meme.

🚨 Watch the moment the “Ukrainian gold convoy” was stopped.
In the video: armored cash vehicles carrying $40M, €35M and 9 kg of gold through 🇭🇺 Hungary toward Ukraine. Among those detained was a former Ukrainian intelligence general.
This is not an ordinary transfer. Since January alone, over $900M, €420M and 146 kg of gold have reportedly moved through Hungary toward Ukraine.
Convoys of cash and gold escorted by intelligence-linked individuals raise serious questions. Those behind this operation must explain exactly what this money was meant to finance.
Update: Now confirmed from my sources in Ukrainian law enforcement: the money was not being transported for weapons. These are funds from a call center (scammers operating under Zelensky’s protection), and the detained former SBU general is an employee of this call center

I totally believe that sanctions against Iran have been circumvented covertly by unofficial means to benefit individuals (and the EU in general).
Now they have a problem. Do they suck up to the US as a way to keep this knowledge from ever seeing the light of day. Or do they try to pressure the US to tone it down hoping such documentation is never allowed to be found and made public. Their actions have been inconsistent and reactionary to real time events. Perhaps this is why.

The BBC mistakenly altered a speech by Pete Hegseth on the war in Iran, making him appear to say the United States was targeting the Iranian “people”.
BBC Persian, which broadcasts to audiences inside Iran, mistranslated remarks by the US secretary of defence, telling viewers Washington was bringing death to the Iranian “people”.
In fact, Mr Hegseth had said the Iranian “regime” was being targeted.

The GH backstory and format could have been made more believable. Say Britt Reid had been in the Army, perhaps as a Ranger (heh!), and he saved the life of a young Asian teen. They swear to work together to destroy evil, and the boy becomes Kato. Then, instead of Britt depending on his secretary to keep his secret in the office, it could be his sister; she and Britt are the last members of the wealthy Reid family who established the newspaper. The public fiction would be that Britt was a do-nothing, drunken playboy, and that she was the real boss. She is -- but of the family corporation; Britt is the Green Hornet. Only his sister and the DA know his real identity.

People used to be able to dial out on “answer only” telephones lacking a dial by careful manipulation of the hangup plunger.
And the infamous “Captain Crunch”, a hacker who among other things could make free long distance telephone calls from a phone booth using a free Whistle from the eponymous cereal box, whose frequency just happened to coincide with Ma Bell’s tone for routing long distance calls.

They didn't want to build a ship model so they sent the entire moon with them. They had cargo shuttle craft (Eagles) that were pretty cool so they could fly to the alien planet they were zooming by for the episode, I don't recall them engaging in combat or that they were all women.

While Seasons 1 - 3 are still a woke parade, Season 4 absolutely surprised me.
They kept the woke to a minimum and actually created a plot-line that was both interesting and entertaining for the entire season. It was part spy-thriller, part heist movie, part The Expanse. It still has some stupid parts along the way, but all in all a great piece of work this time out.
I'm actually looking forward to Season 5 which starts on March 27th.

Iran's politics have been brutalized by 47 years of oppression. And regimes like Iran's purposefully create us v. them situations. Iraq's initial dysfunctional parliament after Saddam was ejected is an example. Lots of challenges to remove the IRGC's stranglehold on politics, lots of ethnic minorities, outside disruptive players like China, Russia, and Pakistan, along with Gulf Arabs, and it will be a mess initially.

Zero-G is a misnomer. There is always a gravitational vector drawing objects toward the center of the object you're orbiting.
The reason you 'float' is that there's a velocity vector normal to the gravitational one that's sufficient to offset your movement toward the orbital object.

In Trek despite the "5 year mission" they do get back to Federation space pretty often to starbases for court marshals and to ferry diplomats about for shows. At these places new engineering/securty (red shirts) and other crew can be cycled in and out. I seem to remember one where a pretty blue skirt showed up Kirk had done something unmentioned at a previous party that he had not seen in a while.

Transitions, especially without occupying forces, tend to be a tricky thing. Much of it depends on how the regular military feels and what they will or will not support or whether the IRGC still exists in any capacity.
I don't think Iran is a Venezuela situation.

Not sure if SciFi inspired me -- perhaps, as I was a big ST fan as a young boy in the late '60s.
What changed my life -- as I was extremely good in math and aspired to be an engineer & problem-solver was:
I aced algebra, geometry, trigonometry, etc. and took pre-calculus my junior year in HS -- and registered for the calculus class prior to my senior year, but my high school canceled the class as only two of us ultimately were qualified (had the necessary prerequisites) and signed up for it.
I went to my favorite math teacher to complain, and he told me that he was going to be teaching the first computer science course ever that year at the school (197
-- and that I should take it.
Absolutely loved it -- and had a 25-year workaholic career in it ...

Abe got the patent I believe. He had someone call off a duel with him because he chose broadswords and was taller than the other guy by about a foot and a half. Teddy rode with the Rough Riders in Cuba. Grant was in Mexico doing house to house fighting and in one case captured a church and mounted a cannon in the belfry to shell Mexican positions.

Curtis LeMay led from the front. Maybe the last general to do that.
He had some controversial ideas on the best way to make a bombing run with B-17s.
He reasoned, if we don’t hit the target, we’ll just have to keep going back, again and again. Doctrine said zig- zag, which made accurate bombing almost impossible.
LeMay proposed direct straight line flights to the target. In the mission briefings they (pilots and crews) gave him a lot of shit. “You’ll get us all killed”.
“I’ll be in the first plane myself” calmed them down, a little. His plan worked. They still got shot all to hell, but they did start hitting the target, at least.

I love the fact that both Washington and Grant (whom most consider the first and second "indispensable men" in American history, with Trump being the third) were both considered the greatest horsemen of their generation.
The story of Grant (as the Quartermaster during the Battle of Monterrey) avoiding sniper fire by hiding behind the side of his galloping horse in the Mexican-American War is a great one.

Lincoln, while visiting McClellan on the Virginia Peninsula, noticed that as the Rebs were pulling out nobody was bothering to recapture Norfolk and the Navy Yard there so he and his party (with I think a cabinet member) commandeered some small craft from the navy and some troops about the area and sailed over and reoccupied the Yard.

War Powers Act Vote to Limit Iran Action Fails, Meaning This Is Now a Congressionally Approved War
Okay okay, that's kinda bullshit. But you will agree, this means that this is not a Congressionally disapproved war.
And because double negatives are effectively positives -- yes, Congress has voted affirmatively to not stop the war.The Mullahs made semi-secret overtures through the CIA begging for an end to the war. Trump rejected these overtures. He now says Iran has only one way out: Unconditional surrender.

The Senate rejected the war powers resolution to force the U.S. to cease operations in Iran in the middle of active combat. Only one Democrat, Sen. Fetterman, voted against the resolution despite some of these same senators supporting Obama in unilateral attacks on Libya... ...In the end, the Kaine resolution succeeded in having the opposite effect of voting against limiting the prosecution of the war. The Senate has now been consulted and voted against limits...

The Senate has now been consulted and voted against limits... ...Notably, the resolution was more feckless given the exception for "imminent threats." With full combat operations on both sides, all threats are now imminent and all attacks responsive. ...What is interesting is that, ever after the Senate was notified, consulted, and voted, Democrats are still calling the war "illegal." The Senate just voted against limiting or blocking the use of force.
President Donald Trump told NBC News that would be a "waste of time," adding on social media today that there would be no deal without Iran's "unconditional surrender."In more Iran news: The leading candidate for Ayatollah is a limpdick.
Mojtaba Khamenei, the favorite to become the new Supreme Leader of Iran, was repeatedly treated for impotency at hospitals in the UK, according to a secret US intelligence document. On Tuesday, Mojtaba, 56, was reportedly preparing to be named successor to his father Ali Khamenei, who was killed along with 48 other senior regime officials in America and Israel's ongoing Operation Epic Fury. According to a classified briefing sent by the State Department to the US Embassy in London in 2008, and later released by WikiLeaks, Mojtaba was placed under pressure by his family to produce heirs. It required four visits, including a final stay lasting two months, and he eventually had a son who was named 'Ali' after the baby's grandfather, the then Supreme Leader. According to US intelligence, Mojtaba married relatively late in life in 2004. That was 'reportedly due to an impotency problem treated and eventually resolved during three extended visits to the UK.'Not unexpected: Crown Prince Reza Pavlavi has announced that he will serve as a transitional leader while Iran constitutes a new government (and a whole new constitution). The Conservative Party of Iran just declared itself and announced its principles. It's a pro-monarchy, secular conservative party. "Conservative" is not code here for "mullahs." It sounds like it wants to be what the UK Conservative Party should be, but is not.
'Mojtaba was expected by his family to produce children quickly, but needed a fourth visit to the UK for medical treatment,' it said.

Walsh later shifted to militant activism, co-founding a group targeting Israeli firm Elbit Systems, leading to arrests and jail time in 2023; critics now decry her praise for IRGC weapons while she continues posting pro-Iran content online.

Kian Tajbakhsh appeared on CNN last night to discuss the Iranian operation. It wasn't confrontational like Scott Jennings, Kevin O'Leary, or Ben Ferguson; he simply presented facts. He should know, as a former political prisoner. We discussed how liberals are trying to frame Operation Epic Fury as a new endless war, but it's not new: Iran has considered itself at war with the United States since the Iranian Revolution. Tajbakhsh was present when officials stated this--we've been at war with the Islamic Republic since 1979.Video at the link.
What he later said about the failed Obama-led Iran Nuclear Deal is what caused CNN to cut to commercial, and you can see why. Tajbakhsh plainly stated how flawed the Obama administration's logic was with this negotiation, and how giving this regime, the largest state sponsor of terrorism, billions might have led to the October 7 attacks. The fingerprints are all over it--the "straight line" as he said before, host Abby Phillip pulled the plug...
AWFUL cries over the death of Khamenei. This is what Khamenei did when he was president of Iran: he sent ten year old boys to clear minefields. Each boy was given a plastic key. They were told that when they get blown up, the plastic key would open the kingdom of heaven for them. This is the man the AWFULs cry for and call "selfless, egoless."
Hans Mahncke
@HansMahncke One of the most haunting stories from the Iran--Iraq War is that the Iranian regime mass produced little plastic keys that were hung around the necks of young children who were then sent out to clear minefields, after being told that if they died the key would open the gates of heaven for them. The regime later tried to deny the story about the keys, but there is no dispute about the underlying reality tens of thousands of elementary school children were systematically indoctrinated in martyrdom and sent to clear minefields.

All that to say, here is a model that I have found useful, which is to break the conscienceless into three basic types, based on IQ bands, with the middle one being the most common due to the bell curve. The first type is the low-functioning psychopaths, which I don't mean as a clinical diagnosis; as seen in Antifa booking photos, some look normal, while others may be carrying a heavy mutational load, and others show the signs of chronic chemical abuse.
The second type is the narcissistic midwit. They're dumb enough that their limited attention is fully consumed by their self-interest, clever enough to be seriously dangerous, and common enough to be found wherever humans gather. Cont.

Disturbingly, there is no solid answer to the natural question of the incidence is of true consciencelessness. They can't even say for the clinical personality disorders that exhibit it; they can't even say just for Cluster B. For convenience, I use 6% or 1/17, which is in the wide range of guesstimates. It keeps you on your toes to consider that in any room with 50 other people, there could easily be three that would murder you in cold blood, with neither hesitation nor remorse.
How that applies to Candace Owens and other news of the day, I leave as an exercise for the reader.

How do they decide whose turn it is to vote with republicans, thus giving them whatever they want while keeping up the pretense of democracy?
We don't vote them out. This is literally against the constitution. We have checks and balances FOR A FUCKING REASON! I think the French had a good idea on how to handle situations like this
This feels like “let’s give him rope so we can game this inevitable failure for the midterms “ , which is a terrible game to play with the lives of service people and civilians.

His job is to supervise a clean set of elections, and then retire, and I believe that's what he intends to do. Any attempt to reinstitute the monarchy on a permanent basis would end with him up against a wall.
Perhaps after he supervises clean elections in Iran, he could come to America and do the same thing.

I tend to agree with the exception. Congress does have spending clause power to remove a president's ability to spend money on a specific conflict. This comes directly from the old pre English Civil War struggle between Parliament and the Crown. The Crown started levying ancient feudal era charges on cities to provide ships for a way among other things like requiring forced war loans from people without the agreement of Parliament.
Earl of Buckingham was involved (the guy that got assassinated in the Three Musketeers books by Dumas) and Charles I and Buckingham wanted war with France. Buckingham was also unsuccessfully impeached by Parliament when Charles I dissolved Parliament in the middle of it.

The White House meeting schedules reflected Eisenhower’s desire for order. His cabinet met every Friday, with Eisenhower beginning each meeting by observing a silent prayer.
Once, when he forgot, cabinet secretary Max Rabb slipped a note to remind him. Eisenhower blurted out, “Goddammit! We forgot the silent prayer!”

Probably? For normal people, Theory of Mind is just a stage of early childhood development where you realize that other people have thoughts about you, and those thoughts are shaped by how you act, so you ought to be careful how you act. You learn it and move on. For the high-functioning sociopath, it's a deep insight that they have to constantly consciously employ, since intuitive, emotional empathy never kicks in.
Or that's my layperson understanding, I'm just a guy with a mind of my own dealing with other people with minds, not a professional psychologist.

People here should be honest and admit the likely outcomes in this situation. Highest likelihood is that the regular army, not the IRGC, rises up and imposes a neutral military dictatorship. Better than what’s there now, but not great and won’t have popular support.
The next most likely outcome is that both the IRGC and the regular army collapse as their leadership is killed and no one takes charge of anything. Iran devolves into 4 or 5 ethnic proto-states; an Azeri section, a Kurdish section, a Persian section, and so forth. That will be chaos.
Pahlavi offers a much more stable and sustainable future than any of that.

Kevin Bass's post (on X today) meticulously reviews 40 documents mentioning Donald Trump across 1.39 million Epstein-related DOJ files, revealing a 1990s social friendship that ended in 2004 when Trump banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago after an alleged underage assault there, with no documented contact afterward.
Key evidence includes Trump's cooperation with victims' attorney Brad Edwards, a single 1997 domestic flight log entry, and FBI investigations dismissing anonymous tips as uncorroborated, contrasting sharply with thousands of documents linking others like Bill Clinton and Bill Gates to deeper ties.
Recent DOJ releases of previously withheld files echo the post's findings, surfacing unsubstantiated 1980s assault claims from a single 2019 FBI interview that yielded no charges or follow-up, underscoring the lack of proven misconduct despite extensive scrutiny.

I wonder if that's etymologically related to "Khomeni"? I would guess so, but I don't know Farsi. Maybe it's a variation akin to the "Mc-" vs. "Mac-" thing in the Celtic languages.

While the former was, indeed, better than the present. The Shah was a corrupt piece of excrement and created the weaknesses that led to the Theocracy. He would have been the lesser of two evils. As usual, the Democrat President at the time (Carter) displayed the commonplace behavior of Liberals...claiming the moral highground without any consideration what-so-ever for consequences.

My big red longhaired tabby w/ white, Arizona, probably had some of the MC genes; he looked it. Personality-wise, not so much. And the chances of a purebred Maine Coon kitten being picked up on the street in 1983 by the SPCA, when the only breeder in the area was thirty or more miles away? Not high.

Arab media reports claim that Iran has executed IRGC Quds Force commander Esmail Qaani after accusing him of spying for Israel’s Mossad and providing information related to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
The reports cite unnamed sources and have not been officially confirmed by Iranian authorities. Qaani had previously survived assassination attempts and was considered a close figure within Iran’s leadership.

This is fake/satirical. No credible reports place Esmail Qaani in Israel or confirm he defected or aided assassinations. Recent unverified rumors (from Arab media, social posts) suggest Iran suspects him of Mossad ties and may have detained/executed him internally amid war fallout—but he's repeatedly "died" in rumors only to resurface. The image is a meme.

This is full on bullshit. hundreds of thousands of young people in Iran who went to protest the ayatollahs, and die for it, were yelling, "this is the Final Battle, Pahlavi will return". They know exactly who Pahlavi is.
The myth of "secret police" and other bad deeds of the late shah was agitprop that Marxist and Communists, trained in USSR were using to overthrow the shah, and who did overthrow Constitutional Monarchy of Iran with the help of of Ayatollah. Who later went on a murder spree. The so called "secret police" was internal security who tried to get rid of jihadist and USSR infiltrators.

Candace Owens to Military-Aged Men: Trump Has Betrayed You, Do Not Join or Remain in the Military, Abandon Your Posts and Take Dishonorable Discharges
She wants people in the military to desert.
Candace OwensShe also, by the way, is doing a seven part series called "Bride of Charlie."
@RealCandaceO Charlie Kirk was the first casualty of the War in Iran. Never forget what they did to him.
She began her "political career" by accusing her classmates of leaving racist voicemails on her answering machine. She never provided evidence for this, but she did sue everyone. She then parlayed that Race Hoax into a media career. She started on the hard "woke" left. I mean, she always has been on the hard "woke" left. She just found it amusing to con the rubes into thinking she was a "conservative firebrand" for a few years.
'I think that Candace can be opposed,' Boreing continues, 'I think that she must be opposed, [but] I don't think that she can be defeated.' ...
The show Candace was launched at the Daily Wire on March 19, 2021, despite Boreing harboring reservations about her. After all, she began her media career on the left-side of the political spectrum, critically writing in 2015 about the Tea Party and then-Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
So again, I'm so, so sorry to engage in "in-fighting" against this Important Conservative Voice who is now using every single show to post conspiracy theories about Erika Kirk being a lesbian murderess and child-rapist.
Looking back, Boreing says he assumed Owen had undergone a 'political evolution' but now he realizes it was a reversible 'transition.' 'She's really actually just sort of detransitioning,' Boreing joked. 'She's returning to her first identity.' Beneath it all, he argues, Owens is driven by an all-encompassing desire for fame. 'She used to tell [PragerU CEO] Marissa Strite that her goal was to be the most famous woman in the world,' Boreing claims. 'She said it in a different way to me, but she said essentially the same thing, which is that she wanted to be Oprah.' In short, Boreing doubts that Owens holds any real views. 'Candace uses ideology in the same way that she uses conspiracy, or in the same way that she uses slander, and that's for clicks. 'She's post-political, she's openly telling people not to vote. She's saying that she's no longer entrapped by this right-wing divide in the country. She's about something else. And what she's about is Candace Owens.' ... Perhaps, the most revelatory moment for Boreing in his relationship with Owens occurred as they discussed the rise of white nationalist streamer Nick Fuentes. Boreing claims he confronted Owens over her refusal to distance herself from Fuentes and his racist, antisemite Groyper movement. Her response shocked him. 'I could not understand the positions she was talking and her unwillingness to
stand up against what were very obviously bad actors starting to emerge in the [right-wing] movement. 'One of the conversations in particular was about Nick Fuentes and the Groypers. She called them the YouTube Boys. And she said: I'll never go against the YouTube boys, are you crazy? I don't go against the YouTube boys.' 'I said, "Candace, what is it that you actually believe?"' Boreing recounts, 'That's when she said the unbelievable line: I believe what the people believe, I'm the voice of the people. 'It's actually one of the most honest things that I think Candace has ever said,' Boreing reflects. 'She views herself as primarily a famous person. She is going to give the people what they want. And she has an unbelievable instinct, as many incredibly talented people do, to [determine] which way the river is flowing at any given time. She knows where the clicks are.' 'Candace would have worn a yarmulke if she thought that that's the way the world was going, if that's how she was going to get the most and easiest clicks.' [T]he 'final straw' for him, he told the Daily Mail, came when she engaged with X users accusing a rabbi 'drinking the blood of Christians.' 'I'd been uncomfortable with a lot of what she had said in the months leading up to that, but really, if there was a straw, it was the blood libel,' he says. 'A centuries-old trope used by anti-Semites to defame the Jews, from my point of view, that was the point of no return.'
Jeremy Boreing
@JeremyDBoreing
I don't know Erika Kirk. I do know Candace Owens. Erika met the moment of her husband's assassination with a grace unimaginable. Candace met the moment of her so-called friend's assassination as she meets every moment -- focused on herself and her insatiable hunger for fame and aggrandizement. If you find yourself believing the latter in her smears of the former, please know you are being manipulated by one of the best in the business. But you're still wrong and in the wrong. May God open your eyes to the evil you are participating in, and may God bless Erika Kirk.
Seth Dillon
@SethDillon Imagine being Erika for a moment. You've lost your husband while your children are still young -- and not by natural causes, or some tragic accident, but by assassination for defending his values. And while you're pressing on despite your mourning, one of your husband's so-called friends begins attacking you, instead of the man responsible, to do as much harm to you and Charlie's organization as possible. And on top of that, as difficult as it is to believe, people who claim to be your friend -- who spoke on Charlie's stage and attended his funeral -- are suddenly nowhere to be found. They sit quietly on the sidelines, keeping a safe distance, hoping none of the arrows will come their way. Imagine how deeply that betrayal must hurt . . . how much it compounds the pain you're already suffering. You can't actually imagine it. There's no precedent for it. You'll never experience anything like it in your life.
BonchieYeah I'm speaking up. We talk shit on this blog about virtually everybody. Kristi Noem got some shit yesterday and he main crime was being a little attention-whorey and maybe a little too dumb to be running a key agency. But when Tucker Carlson, Cavernous Nostrils, and Gay Nazi Nick Fuentes come in for some criticism, suddenly it's just "just ignore them" and "why are you going after people on the right?" They're not on the right. They're not allies. They intend to destroy MAGA (as they're currently destroying TPUSA) as it stands in the way of what they seek, a Nazi political party with popular support. What will it take until you get that? Or is this Good Conservative Behavior? This is from early December -- and she's only gotten worse, and more direct in her accusations of Erika Kirk, since then. John Sexton:
@bonchieredstate Everyday, there's some new line being crossed by this lunatic that makes me wonder whether certain people will finally speak up. They won't, though. Not even this will be enough, and it's probably time to start asking why they are so invested in Owens.
You can watch that two month old list of Accusations here. Again, this is from two months ago. This doesn't even include the Lesbian Child Groomer and Trafficker allegations. All based on the "ghost of Charlie" visiting this psychopathic narcissist in her dreams and telling her that his wife murdered her and that Candace must avenge him.
Yesterday I described how Candace Owens is doing her best to destroy Charlie Kirk's legacy and punish his widow, family and friends in the process. All of this is literally based on a dream that Candace had in which Charlie told her he'd been betrayed by everyone. For nearly three months, Owens has been insinuating (and then directly stating) that Kirk was murdered by a cabal of foreign interests and that his murder was aided and abetted by people he trusted at TPUSA. And for all that time, TPUSA has for the most part sat back and taken the slander without responding. But yesterday, they finally stopped waiting for Owens decency to kick in and announced a change in their approach. This clip is about 7 minutes long and most of it is devoted to denying all of the allegations Owens has made.
Skip to 2:57 to see the trailer for Owen's "Bride of Charlie" expose.
She's now up to part 7 of this "expose" and won't stop pumping them out because her angry, mentally-ill audience wants to see Erika Kirk dead..@RealCandaceO is evil. pic.twitter.com/69ZReNQtbD
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) February 24, 2026
Even Matt Walsh, a cuck and coward who has been in the Leave Candace Alone camp, finally decided to debunk Candance Owens' many, many conspiracy theories, mostly about Erika Kirk and her family. Erika Kirk, you see, is putting on a fake show of grieving. She's not really grieving. Sometimes this widow actually smiles or laughs, so you know she's not sad about Charlie at all. But sometimes she cries and can barely speak, and that's all Fake Pretend Acting, so again you know she's not sad about Charlie. And if she's not sad about Charlie -- you know what that means....! Because what wife wouldn't know how to properly grieve her husband, except the murderess responsible for his murder? It took him 50 minutes to get through the endless lies Owens is pushing to her rabid, unhinged followers about Erika Kirk. And by the way: One of those monsters is going to try to kill Erika Kirk.
As Candace is now going after Erika directly, I want to publicly mention that I have it on good authority that these attacks on Charlie from before his death were coordinated with Candace.

Oh, she's also a fan of Loose Change and believes 9/11 was done by Netanyahu. So does Tucker Carlson, of course. This was three days ago: Not when she was a Race-Hoaxing, Camera-Humping teenaged famewhore.
Remember when we used to call 9/11 Denialism out instead of forming a Simp Cocoon around Very Important "Conservative" Voices?
[RG911Team] Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson have committed the unforgivable sin.

It wasn’t interviewing Nick Fuentes.

no, but close: She says that about Macron's wife, who has FOUR CHILDREN. She claims the woman who gave birth to four children is secretly a man. A man who murdered his sister, then stole her birth certificate to pose AS the sister.

Jimmy Lai is one of the most notable Catholic martyrs alive in the world today. Can anyone imagine the Great Pope John Paul2 keeping silent about such an obvious example of Communist repression? As St Thomas More said, "Silence gives consent."

And the answer is no. The reason they are saying so now is because they feel the claims under Biden that there was a leftwing pedo-elite hurt them politically.
Its the same thing with Erika Kirk. Does Candace or anyone believe these claims are true? No. But it lets them attack someone that is a problem for them with the tool they think must work because of 2021-2024.
Kirk was assassinated by a tranny-banning leftwinger because the FNM spun him up. The left does not want to talk about the fact they just caused the biggest political assassination in two generations and will do ANYTHING to change the topic.

"How to handle a woman?
There's a way", said the wise old man
"A way known by every woman
Since the whole rigmarole began"
Do I flatter her? I begged, him answer
Do I threaten or cajole or plead?
Do I brood or play the gay romancer?
Said he, smiling, "No indeed"
"How to handle a woman?
Mark me well, I will tell you, sir
The way to handle a woman
Is to love her, simply love her
Merely love her, love her, love her"

I'm sure they have some influence, but when we look for real world influence, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot.
Fuentes, for instance, said he was going to go to Michigan in Sept of 2024 to campaign against Trump. Well, Fuentes didn't go because he was afraid of Vance's security detail...murdering him. Also, Trump won Michigan.
And then, Tucker's endorsement of that TX GOP primary which bombed.
I mean...there's online influence, and then there's real world influence. I'm just not that sure of how much these people have in the real world.

But what is, is that Carlson has an audience. Particularly in the zoomer generation. They are watching AI parody slop from "Hard Archive" and "Phixotic"; some of it is fun and based, but a lot of it is just antiJewish. The reason they are watching this stuff is because, from when they were about ten years old and first noticing the news, would be 2015ish. That's when #woke about started, tail-end of Obama 2.
It seems to be young Hispanics who are most-prone to this stuff

The new director of College Republicans is Kai Schwemmer who is not Hispanic however. Here's Joel Berry on that guy

I have the outlines of an SF opera I want to write one day. One plot element, there is a communist insurgency that has access to a re-discovered technology that lets them clone people and brainwash that clone and the net effect is that in this society all sorts of people suddenly act as leftwing lunatics when the rebels need them to.
And this is an old idea I've had but you know you can see it in our real world can't you? But...my real answer for why this happens is:
1) The left can use the FNM to slander anyone
2) The left can use taxpayer dollars to bribe anyone
3) Up until 2025 the left can use the NatSec agencies to blackmail anyone

look, influence or not, if someone clearly on the left were accusing Erika Kirk of being a lesbian pedophile and a murderess, you'd say that would be fit for a blog post, right?
when it's Candace Owens, why is it different? Why do we then have to debate about whether she's "worth talking about?"
As I said yesterday, these people are every bit as influential as a Rashida Tlaib. But no one questions when I do a post about Tlaib.

Supposedly companies are very sensitive to boycott threats if they get a bunch of them. I personally am a terrible boycotter, I don't tend to go back to a brand once they've convinced me they hate me and my kind, and I don't tend to pay attention and tell them to shape up before they get to that point. But I think the strategy of announcing you'll boycott and tell all your friends to boycott as well actually gets the attention of most companies.

And I didn't even mention the idea that podcast numbers could be fake or overinflated because of non-American listeners.
Musk shared the information that X was seeing that most of Fuentes' hits were coming from the Middle East. Oh, he's got 5 million listeners. Well, at least 3 million of them are from Pakistan.

Fast forward - Owens is just one of several operatives tasked with taking down MAGA while posing as "conservatives". The same kind of agents that tried to take down DJT while wearing chinos, button-down shirts, sunglasses, and red caps while they carried Nazi flags or signs with racist slogans.
TPUSA and Charlie Kirk are an even great threat to a now-pummeled and distraught Washington Establishment. They are using any weapon at hand in a fight to the death campaign of ruin or be ruined. Physical assassination, threats and attempts, arson, riots - whatever it takes.

Oh, come on. It's more than that. This is the S. Dakota governor who vetoed a bill that disallowed men to participate in women's sports. That was in 2021, and she defended it (once the roof started falling down her) by claiming she was trying to avoid legal entanglements with the NCAA. Then less than a year later *poof* she signed a bill disallowing men in women's sports. What changed? Well, someone started pushing her name for a VP candidate (2022). She needed to clean up the mess she made.
If you think the current self-promotion is along the same lines. She though she had a show at VP in 2028, and had started her campaign. She's a flat out opportunistic, self-absorbed waste...and her plastic surgery (another sign of this)..is hitting it's expiration date.

Yes. I read Blackout. Not my thing but there was nothing in it that even hinted at the Owens of today. Either she had it ghost-written, or she is suffering a physical impairment; I tend to suspect the latter because it appears to get worse in ways that track with real, serious, physical deterioration.
I would not be at all surprised to discover that she has a brain tumor or a worsening chemical imbalance. Some of the things she says are literal examples of mental disorder.

There are a couple that have been defending Tucker (one is missing in action for a while, apparently a short ban, and the other just seems to avoid the topic now), but I don't know of anyone who defends Candace or Fuentes.
Maybe tries to make the case that they have influence, but not that they should be left alone.
Posted by: TheJamesMadison, discovering British horror with Hammer Films at March 06, 2026 03:17 PM (GBKbO)
That's the only way to demonetize someone. Like, I'm not sure what else you think we can do to someone like Candace. She's not breaking any criminal laws (and the civil ones would require the harmed to sue, not us). She's not an enemy combatant. She's not our friend or family, so we can personally tell her to shut up.
What we can do, what the only thing we can do, is to tell everyone we know to not give her clicks, likes, and watches. Don't buy her tickets. Don't buy her books. Tell everyone she's beneath us.
But amplifying is not the way, unless you think there are still tons of people who don't realize her grift. At this point, that's not true for her (maybe it is still for Tucker, but it ain't for her)...

The proof that lil Candy is a narcissist is that she had three small children and plenty of cash but she spends her time making outlandish and demonstrably false claims online for clicks.
Nobody does that unless they are psychologically driven to it.
She needs a serious intervention. But then again, maybe her DH prefers to have her out of the house more. The distance is probably good for HIS mental health.

And didn't say anything about the sale until his popularity was gone- the new owners wanted to change the politics and wreck our movement. And after initial uproars on "why is Drudge posting X", eventually folks quietly walked...in bigger and bigger numbers...then the admittance from Drudge and the continued downward spiral to today.

China and Russia spend billions on this stuff. Russia taught China, and the strategy is to empower the fringe groups to create a dis-unified people and encourage protests and violence.
I don't think Russia has the bandwidth anymore, but I strongly believe that China has at least 1 million bots running in the country. "phone" banks which are just SIM cards on a backplane, so they get 1,000 on a rack. They are placed in all high density cities. They are the main clicks for these freaks.

She probably has a ton of followers who follow her to grab her words and use them to denounce the R party...
But probably not all...so now, there's a mission for those on X. Convince folks to unfollow Candance. A simple click. One at a time to anyone you know. That's an action that will have results.

Lincoln did several things that were unconstitutional, including suspending Habeus Corpus in Maryland, which he got away with because there was a vicious civil war going on at the time with hundreds of people dying daily.
Long after he was buried and the war was over, the Judiciary ruled that he Really Shouldn’t Have Fone That.
But only after it was safe to do so.
In truth, the old Roman maxim still applies: in times of war, the law falls silent.

You do that person to person...you can't just start a swell bitching b/c bitching gets clicks and folks watch catfights.

So remove the insanity, go person to person with your own friends and family and people you know, and get them to unclick.
You convince 1-on-1. Drudge didn't lose all the followers b/c of people bitching. He lost them b/c folks talked to their friends and family and got them to stop going and that started the wave...when it's not cool or fun anymore and folks are leaving, it's time to move to the next drama...

All that to say, this is just a model that I have found useful, which is to break the conscienceless into three basic types, based on IQ bands, with the middle one being the most common due to the bell curve. The first type is the low-functioning psychopaths, which I don't mean as a clinical diagnosis; as seen in Antifa booking photos, some look normal, while others may be carrying a heavy mutational load, and others show the signs of chronic chemical abuse. They are the street muscle of every racket.
The second type is the narcissistic midwit. They're dumb enough that their limited attention is fully consumed by their self-interest, clever enough to be seriously dangerous, and common enough to be found wherever humans gather. Cont.

Disturbingly, there is no solid answer to the natural question of the incidence is of true consciencelessness. They can't even say for the clinical personality disorders that exhibit it; they can't even say just for Cluster B. For convenience, I use 6% or 1/17, which is in the wide range of guesstimates. It keeps you on your toes to consider that in any room with 50 other people, there could easily be three that would murder you in cold blood, with neither hesitation nor remorse.
How that applies to Candace Owens and her audience, I leave as an exercise for the reader.

Slate - Candace Owens’ New “Documentary” About Erika and Charlie Kirk Is Baffling. We Can Help.
In part, "But Candace Owens’ declaration of war against the rest of the mainstream right actually matters for all of us. Because ultimately, the Owens–TPUSA rift is the story of an identity crisis that has brought the right to its current inflection point. It may very well have ramifications of that for the country’s future: for its relationship with Israel, for the future of the conservative movement, and for whether the modern GOP opts to work within the existing system or tries to blow it all up."

Starving them of attention hasn't worked because they aren't actually being starved of it. They're in a mutually beneficial E-drama circle jerk of clicks with the Daily Wire personalities and the "Well I never!" conservative commentariat, and no matter what we do, it will follow the usual trajectory of these things where it slowly consumes that entire area of Internet interest until people finally get bored and move on.
So for me it has less to do with "never punch right" or whatever, but with not giving these people what they crave, which is attention of every and any kind. Especially if I can direct eyeballs towards something of actual value.

"Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars" is a famous quote by Lebanese-American poet Kahlil Gibran. It emphasizes that enduring hardship, pain, and trauma builds profound character, resilience, and inner strength, often comparing this transformative process to fire shaping metal.

I dismissed Owens as a rabid crank a good while ago. (Didn't really even know who she was until people started calling her out for her anti-antisemitism.)
But since I've never tuned-in to her idiotic rantings: I had no clue how CRUEL she has been and is continuing to be to Erika and Charlie's closest friends. DISGUSTING.
It enrages me. - So much that I must pray to Christ for help in maintaining a merciful heart.

That said, if she really has the 2nd largest podcast then it's worthwhile to show that she's not really "on the right." Same with tucker.

"Prohibited Access:" Kash Patel Now Examining the FBI's Dark Files, the Hidden History of the Deep State
Via JackStraw, whistleblowers revealed that the FBI keeps two separate books. You know, like Mafia dons keeping separate books for their fake transactions and their real transactions.
One set of files were the official ones, intended for public consumption and used when they were subpoenaed. The other set of books were the real ones, about what the FBI was really doing. To make sure no one ever saw these, the files were marked "PROHIBITED ACCESS" so that no one could see them, except the cardinals of the American Kremlin. Now Kash Patel has found them and is reviewing the Secret History of the Deep State, with an eye to revealing all the Deep State's secrets. It's not just that the files were secret. They were also deliberately kept out of the SENTINEL filing system, so that you couldn't even search for them. You would not even turn up a stub saying "This file is top secret." The very existence of the files was hidden from everyone, including the White House and FBI agents themselves. Only the heads of the Secret Police knew about them, and the heads of the Secret Police would share the existence of the files with their successors orally. There were no written records or admissions about the files. Those could be discovered and subpoenaed!Read the whole thing. It's free to read if you just give them an email address.
EXCLUSIVE: The FBI's Secret Stash Finally Uncovered
For a generation, the FBI has kept a second set of books called 'prohibited access' files. After a long fight, they're finally being examined. Matt Taibbi
Mar 06, 2026
A Federal Bureau of Investigation task force has begun excavating the separate set of books FBI keeps using an inaccessible "prohibited access" file designation, according to multiple government sources. Though an internal fight over how to handle the files continues, embattled FBI Director Kash Patel has assigned personnel to examine decades of hidden history, Racket News has learned, with some files already turned over to Congress. "This is it -- the deep state," one of the sources said. Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley, whose work with whistleblowers and pressure across years was key to prying prohibited access files loose, expressed cautious optimism. "If it weren't for whistleblower disclosures to my office, the very existence of the FBI using 'Prohibited Access' files for some investigations would have remained in the dark," he said. "I've asked Attorney General Bondi and Director Patel to turn over certain Prohibited Access records to Congress. I've received some, but am still waiting on others. I urge the DOJ and FBI to keep digging -- which previous administrations apparently didn't make any effort to do -- so that the facts can come to light. The FBI's secret stash of records is scandalous." Files given a prohibited access designation are not merely secret. They are "ghosts" which "do not exist," records rigged to return false negatives when searched for in the FBI's SENTINEL system. They're digital descendants of paper records that as far back as Richard Nixon's presidency were kept in locked offices, accessible to just a few officials, typically at the deputy director level and above. Currently, the number of people with the ability to access the files can be counted on one hand. The implications of the nation's chief federal law enforcement and counter-intelligence organization having kept a separate, non-searchable filing system are mind-boggling. "It's not like turning over a rock and finding a few bugs," said retired FBI Supervisory Analyst George Hill. "It's like turning over a manhole and finding a whole city." "You don't run a Constitutional republic on secret files," added legal analyst Margot Cleveland. A current government source said the prohibited access designation is "literally designed to hide files from Congress and from the FBI itself. It's really frigging bad."
Off-books surveillance and "disruption" of political figures in the Arctic Frost and Trump-Russia investigations comprise part of the find, but the files extend at least as far back as 1999, across Democratic and Republican Party presidencies, involving as many as a thousand distinct case numbers. There are no rules for passing access to the system from one administration to the next. Instead, operation of prohibited access files is described as an oral tradition passed down among senior FBI officials, independent of agents below and political appointees above in Congress and even the White House. Here's how the files came to light: A week and a half ago, on February 25th, Patel mentioned prohibited access files in a statement given to Reuters in a story about Joe Biden's FBI obtaining subpoenas of phone records for Patel and current White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles in 2022 and 2023. Patel called it "outrageous" and "deeply alarming" that the previous administration had him and Wiles investigated, "using flimsy pretexts and burying the entire process in prohibited case files designed to evade all oversight." He told Reuters he'd "recently ended" the FBI's use of the prohibited designation. At the outset of the second Trump presidency, neither Patel nor then-Deputy Director Dan Bongino knew how to access the files. "Nobody said, 'Okay, this is how the FBI runs. This is what we do. This is how we hide things,'" is how one source put it. The bureau has supposedly located all of the "prohibited" files, but the scope of the problem remains unknown, in part because in addition to the prohibited files, the bureau has a problem with what one source called "the shit on paper," which might involve field offices as well as its Washington headquarters. Added a former FBI agent: "There are files in offices and at headquarters that reside either in a safe or in a locked drawer somewhere or hidden within Sentinel." An extraordinary aspect of this tale -- as Racket's Ryan Lovelace will soon report in more detail -- is that the Justice Department Inspector General has known about the existence of the prohibited access designation since at least 2021. He also obtained a 2023 FBI user manual for its SENTINEL GOLD records system, not always positively reviewed by agents ("Yesterday's Technology Tomorrow," is how one former agent jokingly put it), showing "prohibited" files as one of the categories in the system. According to Racket sources, prohibited access files predate both Sentinel Gold and the original Sentinel system, which was introduced in 2012. (More on this soon.) The files only came to be accessible to senior Trump appointees after a years-long bureaucratic battle that began with whistleblowers in the Justice Department, later was taken up by investigators in Grassley's office, and only reached the offices of Patel and Bongino last year. Though the prohibited access issue extends to other presidencies and other problems, including potentially the systematic burying of misconduct cases involving senior FBI officials, this issue only began to leak into the public eye because of Russiagate. When congressional investigators began looking at the origins of the Steele Dossier and the behavior of the private intelligence firm Fusion-GPS, they came across apparent conflicting statements involving Nellie Ohr, a former CIA analyst and Fusion employee whose husband Bruce worked for the DOJ*.

These files were removed and sent directly to the White House on orders of President Truman, and nobody was allowed to see them. Consequently Congress not the Justice Department could do their job. Eventually even the F.B.I. was infiltrated and subverted.

True story,
I moved with my family into a new place in '23. Ever since I've seen people driving by slowly, often stopping beside the house and sitting there for awhile and then taking off. Quiet residential neighborhood with only one entrance. And they never looked like any neighbor cars. All strangers but I'd see repeats. All year long. Sometimes there would be cars there when I came home from work. Enough cars and it was freaking me out.
So I asked my wife one day if she noticed. Yeah she noticed and she told me why. The neighborhood pool was across the street and there were enough people there with pokeman playing on their phones that they turned the exact spot in front of my house into a major poke stop in the city. So people were stopping by to do WTF people do on that game.

I'm still of the mind that the massive collection of files found (unburned) in the "burn room" includes a significant number of these "prohibited files."
I'm guessing that one of the 7th Floor exectutive hacks assigned their destruction of an assumed loyal lackey who didn't much care for being the patsy, so they moved them to the burn room but left them intact. NOTHING in a burn room is going to be whole. It will be pulped or shredded before being bagged. AND, you'll recall that their discovery was by Kash Patel, himself.

Supposedly, this operation goes back as far as the Nixon administration so I would imagine there is a mountain of stuff in there. I bet a lot of conspiracy theories get proven factual in those files.

Yes. It is a banal observation that an organization's culture springs from three fonts, its founding, its history, and its leadership -- and you can't change two of them. Even if briefly elevated by better leadership, it will always revert to the deeply corrupt nature of its founding and history.
The only way to fix the FBI (or any other culturally sick org) for good is to shutter it and stand up a new replacement from scratch. Maybe even wait a year or two to see which functions are even really necessary vs. grotesque, florid bureaucratic overgrowth that we're better off leaving out.

I watched my buddy walking and clacking those clackers at the same time. It was kind of neat. Then he scored a direct “clack” on his elbow, and he started crying and ran home.
We only (mostly) got lame toys. Those clear plastic tubes, graduated layers, with marbles in them. Those didn’t hold anyone’s attention very long.

I said way back in 2017 that all the stonewalling, misdirection and "wait for the IG report" was all about covering up the fact the DoJ is corrupt as hell and that by any reasonable measure all prosecutions and convictions obtained under DoJ authority should be overturned immediately. And I don't mean stuff just related to Trump and conservatives, I mean everything. There is simply no basis to assume that any prosecution done has been on the up and up.

I'm guessing that one of the 7th Floor exectutive hacks assigned their destruction of an assumed loyal lackey who didn't much care for being the patsy, so they moved them to the burn room but left them intact. NOTHING in a burn room is going to be whole. It will be pulped or shredded before being bagged. AND, you'll recall that their discovery was by Kash Patel, himself. Likely acting on a whistleblower's tip. BUT, why are they just reading them now? That would have been a priority in my mind.
Posted by: Orson
=========
It isn't only burn rooms but apparently 'invisible' SCIFs with files that are being discovered. They discovered such in DHS too about a week or so ago.
From what the magic money machine dispensers story in 2025 with those being dispersed to places they should not be, I suspect quite a few unreported SCIFs and secret access unreported files exist in our intel community, DoJ, and DoW too.

Oh No! GOP Lawmakers Push for Perjury Charges Against Madison Cornbread for Fabricated J6 Testimony
They're so sad they try to hide Madison Cornbread's identity by calling her by her criminal alias "Cassidy Hutchinson."Republicans on Capitol Hill are asking the Justice Department to consider bringing criminal charges against Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide in President Donald Trump's first administration who became a star congressional witness about the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot, according to two sources familiar with recent developments. GOP Rep. Barry Loudermilk made a criminal referral of Hutchinson to the Justice Department in recent days, the sources said. He accused Hutchinson of lying to Congress in her summer 2022 testimony when she alleged Trump was aware of the potential for violence on January 6, 2021, and forged ahead with his attempts to rile up his supporters. Loudermilk has long attempted to reframe the public perception of the events at the Capitol, including by scrutinizing the House committee that investigated the Capitol riot and found Trump was "directly responsible" for the riot. Loudermilk's referral was co-signed by House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, who chairs the committee under which Loudermilk is running a probe of January 6. The Justice Department's press office didn't respond to inquiries about the referral. Both current and former lawyers for Hutchinson didn't respond to multiple inquiries this week from CNN. CNN has reached out to Loudermilk for comment. It's not uncommon for Congress to make criminal referrals regarding witnesses that have come before it previously, especially in heavily charged political situations, and referrals don't necessarily lead to charges. A referral at times could add to a criminal investigation or prompt one. They are often treated by the Justice Department as suggestions. A referral and possible Justice Department action against Hutchinson could refocus attention on a fraught aspect of the work years ago of the House Select Committee and prosecutors. It also comes a time when the Trump administration has pursued politically charged criminal cases against former government figures whom Trump considers opponents.LOL. Oh, Trump is pushing criminal charges against the criminals who pushed criminal charges against him for four years. What a monster. I mean, it's not even a close call that she repeatedly lied to Congress. Look at this easily-disproved lie that she personally, in her own hand, wrote a key note jotted down during J6. The note is important because it shows that Trump's people were drafting a tweet that anyone in the Capitol not authorized to be there should leave. The J6 kangaroo court rigged the show-trial to prove that Trump really wanted an "insurrection," so they insisted this was not written by a Trump aid recording his thoughts, but by Madison Cornbread. In the below exhibit, the the note in question. It is clearly from a masculine hand. Writing in all-caps block letters is the biggest giveaway that a man is writing. I personally only barely remember how to form lower-case letters. I never use them, except in my signature.
A House panel reviewing the work of the illegally established and since disbanded Select Committee on Jan. 6 released testimony previously concealed by lawmakers for contradicting the committee's star witness. On Thursday, the Washington Times reported the House Administration's subcommittee on Oversight released the transcripts of a Secret Service driver for President Donald Trump who pushed back on claims Trump tried to violently hijack a presidential vehicle to riot at the Capitol. "I did not see him reach. He never grabbed the steering wheel," the driver told then-Committee Vice Chair Liz Cheney during an interview. "I didn't see him, you know, lunge to try to get into the front seat at all." The agent's testimony flew directly in opposition to what lawmakers were told by Cassidy Hutchinson, a former White House aide who worked for Trump's final first-term chief of staff, Mark Meadows. Hutchinson sensationalized the televised show trials of the Jan. 6 Committee when she claimed an "irate" president assaulted Secret Service agents to try to drive himself to Capitol Hill. "The president said something to the effect of 'I'm the f'ing president, take me up to the Capitol now,'" Hutchinson publicly testified in the summer of 2022. "The president reached up towards the front of the vehicle to grab at the steering wheel," she added, but he was stopped by the head of his security detail.
Ace is saying something to the effect of, "Imprison this nasty-cooched swamp hag."

Anyone can be accused of anything, even outrageous things that could have never happened by witnesses that are obvious liars, and yet some will believe those accusations. It reflects more on the personality and character of the accusers than it does the people that they accuse.

although this is true, I need to point out that different countries have handwriting styles, and in Colombia there are (were now I suppose) two styles taught to school children. One is a cursive that is based on the Spanish "gothic" hand, which is sort of like Spencer and sort of like Fraktur, and the other which is a block, upper case handwriting that has such entertaining elements as the A is a delta, and the ñ is written with a straight line across for the tilde. The second style was used in "official" annotations written by hand, where clarity was considered more important that style.
However, missing any Colombian connection with this affair, I agree with ace' conclusions.

But aside from/after that. wow. Just a non-stop cavalcade of bad or ridiculous calls and pathetic excuse-making for his beloved and largely failed system. Think he defended the ridiculous lynch job of VP Cheney's aid in the ridiculous affair of the non-secret ditz CIA wife of the buffoonish former ambassador and his comical op-ed on Iraqi yellow cake machinations. His buddy was the prosecutor.
Of course he steadfastly refused to believe (or pretended so) that the DOJ/FBI had become a rampaging Vishinsky-like operation to destroy Trump and all who dared consort with him. Even as the evidence piled higher and higher. Pathetic.

Pretty much. When I was a lad, everyone in my grade was expected to bring a fountain or cartridge pen to school. Being a parochial school, conformity was the rule; so when I demonstrated my prowess at writing with the left-hand, the Sisters huddled like refs after a penalty call in a playoff game. After some discussion, it was determined that I could continue with my sinister writing career.

I still write cursive regularly, because it’s faster when taking notes. But it’s not often enough to remember all of the capitals, because some of them are very rare. I’m always forgetting exactly how to do Q and one or two others I don’t remember offhand.
That said, it comes back easily if I do a search on the letter and see it again.

I did college in block letters, though I admit to keep up with the lectures I developed a lot of contractions -- "FR" meant both 'for' and 'from', for example -- and it was a bit unreadable by other people. That contraction is both a unique text block and the meaning is determined by context.

Reportedly 50 planes dropped 100 bombs on a leadership bunker in Tehran, with intel that some (remaining) big-wig, er, big-turban, was present. In Beirut when they sent Nasrallah to his reward reportedly 80 bombs were used.
Go big, then go home (and bomb targets in Lebanon on the way, in some cases).

That, and signing acknowledgements at the doctor’s office, and probably one or two other things, and I begin to wonder how useful a signature is, given that the final signature bears no apparent resemblance to the first signature.

Ballpoints can be wielded like a crayon, but if you have a pen with a nib or use a delicate quill, you have to take that into consideration. You can also write like you are trying to gouge the letters into a block of wood
Mom taught and had a gorgeous Palmer hand, I learned it after she died, mostly because she hated my handwriting.
I got steel nibs, fountain pens and I have worked at cutting quills, and they all require a different handwriting than a ballpoint pen.
The thing I find fascinating now is Roman handwriting. They are digging up wooden "note boards" in Northern Scotland in the Vindolanda fort, and other places, and the handwriting is fascinating, it probably will be my next bit of obsession.

“To simplify it, I would put it this way.”
“I don’t think it’s right to say that President Trump has started a war with Iran.”
“I think President Trump wants to finish a war that Iran started in 1979, 47 years ago.”
Then he shared a story from inside Iran:
“These aren’t just words. Let me tell you an anecdote.”
“In 2003, 2004 when I was there in Iran, working on projects at a very high level, I was talking with deputy ministers…going back and forth.”
“I was in the foreign ministry in Tehran where I met someone very senior who was semi-sympathetic to the projects we were doing.”
“But as I was leaving, he looked me in the eye and said, as an Iranian-American I want you to listen very carefully.”
“He said we in this building…meaning the foreign ministry, meaning the government, meaning the regime…”
“He said we believe we are at war with the United States.”
“He said at that time it’s a cold war, but it’s a war nonetheless.”

Al Jazeera and Breitbart as sources.
BREAKING: Indian authorities say that they gave shelter to 183 sailors on Iranian ship IRIS Lavan after the vessel reached out in distress on February 28, the day the US and Israel began their ongoing war on Iran.
The IRIS Bushehr, an Iranian Navy fleet supply ship, was interned by Sri Lanka after its captain surrendered the vessel to Sri Lankan authorities amid heightened hostilities. Sri Lanka took custody of the 1970s-era vessel within its territorial waters, removed 208 crew members, and will hold the ship at Trincomalee for the duration of the conflict.

The soviets set up listening posts to record Selectric typewriters as they made tiny vibrations against windows, and used the minute time lags to determine which letters were being typed, since the ball had a specific rate of turn to punch each letter. If I recall, there were three letters vertically, so the ball had to turn as well as incline, depending upon the key that was pressed.

The first really good printer I had was a daisywheel. I was amazed at the quality over dot matrix, and the ability to quickly change fonts.
I was also amazed at the durability. They looked incredibly flimsy, but I printed a crapload on that printer and even the wheel I used by default never broke. Not even the period that was used for graphics.

Speaking of signatures...
A petition to require voter ID and allow only U.S. citizens to vote has gained momentum in California and surpassed the required 875,000-signature threshold to qualify for the November ballot, the group leading the effort said.
According to Reform California, a nonpartisan political activism group, organizers submitted the "California Voter ID Initiative" petition to county authorities with 1.3 million signatures. The group says the petition has garnered bipartisan support, with signatures from Californians representing all walks of life and political persuasions across all 58 of the state’s counties.

Self-checkout has gotten faster at one of the two grocery stores I frequent most; they seem to have learned over time. When I put my own cloth shopping bags on the scale (they’re more durable than plastic or paper, and I thrive on microbes), it no longer requires a cashier to come over.
The other grocery store’s scan-as-you-go self checkout still, after at least five years, tells me to be sure to take my receipt, despite the machine never having had a printer.
And the scan-as-you-go supermarket I use where my dad lives always has to have a cashier make sure I’m not stealing anything from them for two or three visits before it trusts me, probably because they haven’t programmed it to recognize that I’m only there around Thanksgiving, Spring, and a specific weekend each in August and September.

Abusers, especially narcissistic ones, use a form of operant conditioning on their victims. They give "rewards", almost treat like, and keep them coming back by withholding and giving them out in an unpredictable manner. Think of it almost as gambling addiction but the victim doesn't even know they are in a game. I think the proper term is called Variable Ratio Reinforcement. Or Intermittent Reinforcement. And unfortunately it works very very well. It's a total mindfuck.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the current war had to happen because immediately after the last strike, Iran started digging even deeper bunkers for their nuclear program.
In an interview with Fox News, Netanyahu said, “The reason that we had to act now is because after we hit their nuclear sites and their ballistic missile program [in June 2025]… they started building new sites… underground bunkers that would make their ballistic missile program and their atomic bomb program immune within months.”
“If no action was taken now, no action could be taken in the future,” he said.

I expect one of the reasons my handwriting is so bad is that (a) our Catholic school (first to eighth grade) bundled two classes into each room. Some subjects were taught to the entire room; others were taught to one side or the other.
And (b) cursive was taught in second grade. I was so fascinated by it that I rushed through whatever work they had us first-graders doing in order to follow along when cursive was taught on the other side.

You can watch the Dugin speech at Paideuma.TV@PaideumaTV. Speech is about 30 minutes long. I had it summarized by Grok.
Basically, Dugin is bewailing the fact that a lot of disruptive proxies are being taken off the board by US and/or Israel recently. Hezbollah, Houthis, Venezuela, and now Iran. Makes arguments for multipolarity which Dugin wants less achievable and Dugin argues that it will result in future wars like India v. China, etc.
Those proxies that create situations via terrorism, etc. are what Dugin thinks prevents great powers form conflict.

His initial counter was in how he handled the Epstein matter. They had cornered him with it and were going to use it to split the party down the middle. But he responded in a way they predicted he never would - basically creating a split of his own on his terms instead of theirs. Separating out a small amount of "crazies" on his own side instead of letting them make his people duke it out. And it worked.

Politico Magazine, ‘I Stepped Down Because I Saw Where This Was Heading’
Former White House comms director Alyssa Farah talks about the violence at the Capitol, whether she would support her former boss in 2024 and where the party goes from here. 01/07/21
Cheney began communicating with Hutchinson in April 2022.
Hutchinson reached out to Farah Griffin following Hutchinson’s second transcribed interview. Farah Griffin and Hutchinson knew each other from their time working together in the White House. Farah Griffin was one of the first former Trump administration officials to publicly criticize Trump in January 2021, and was publicly working with the Select Committee on its investigation.

CHA House gov -
In part, When Hutchinson reached out to Farah Griffin, she invited Hutchinson over to her Georgetown townhome to talk on April 26, 2022. That evening, Hutchinson told Farah Griffin she had more information she could provide to the Select Committee, according to statements by both Hutchinson and Farah Griffin. During their conversation, Farah Griffin agreed to “[contact] Liz Cheney on [Hutchinson’s] behalf about scheduling another interview.”

Yeah, I don’t think Paxton’s promise has any hope of being called in. If by some miracle it is, I think we could reasonably assume that its success is due entirely to Paxton “agreeing” with President Trump.

Sure, you can build your bomb factories deep, deep underground. A thousand meters? No problem. Even a direct hit with a nuke wouldn't destroy it. But how do you get raw materials, workers, and finished product in and out of that sucker? Deep underground lairs need entrances and exits. Destroy those, and "deep underground lair" becomes "deep underground tomb".

Once I started using cursive I had *much* less problem with getting letters mixed up or backwards. Math on the other hand has always been a nightmare because of constantly doing both with the numbers.

Tools dictate the product, and tools carry their own preconceptions and limitations of what the job is.
A ballpoint or mechanical pencil can be wielded like a crayon, where most other writing tools of the West are restricted to broad down strokes, and lighter coasting up and circular strokes. With a rigid nib you can make block prints, but most writing tools are flexible to give a faster flow. Spencerian hand was developed for a steel nib, before that there were other hands that were for feather quill points, Palmer was developed along with the development of the fountain pen.
There is also the cultural approach to what is in style.
However, the first printing press letters were developed around the Carolingian hand which were developed as a highly legible handwriting style for Charlamagne's court

'Cassidy Hutchinson, former Trump White House staffer, speaks at CMU'
Hutchinson was originally slated to work for Trump at Mar-a-Lago in Florida after his presidency ended. She said she hoped to take the job so she could attempt to keep Trump “in reality.” However, Hutchinson said the job was rescinded because of a perceived lack of loyalty. She also spoke about all the times Trump continued to insist he won the 2020 election and how the West Wing in the final few months of his presidency was a mix of people looking for a way to install him for a second term and people trying to get Trump to tone down his rhetoric.

There are also elements of Learned Helplessness on the victim's side, as well as the fact that abuse need both sides to be participants, even if they are just victim and abuser, and the victim side winds up feeling degraded and complicit in allowing the abuse EVEN IF THE VICTIM HAD NO OTHER OPTIONS OR ESCAPE.
I had to put that in bold so people might read it
Part of escaping the cycle is understanding the cause of the feelings of degradation and self hate is to find a way to forgive oneself for being a victim.

The massive 50 plane hit today on the Khameini bunker system in central Teheran used the fact they could loiter and bomb at will. Using smart bunker busters, they simply kept rat a tat tating by repeated bombings until they got to the level of the bunkers and their exits. As you say, the bunkers can become tombs especially like for the Hezbollah leader that got killed last year. Poisonous gases from the explosions seep downward into the crevices and can poison you if no air ventilation exists. Those are often heavier than air and thus gravity sends them downwards.
I think quite a few more Iranian regime leaders met their Maker today.

On Monday morning, the club accepted and installed the 12-foot bronze One Riot, One Ranger statue depicting a member of the Texas Rangers law enforcement agency that had previously stood at Dallas Love Field until it was removed during the racially-charged summer of 2020.Below is a picture of the despicable desecration in 2020. The header picture at the top of this post is the ranger at his new home.
In case you’ve never heard the “one riot, one ranger” story (which is probably apocryphal): In the late 19th century, lawlessness had broken out in a Texas town, so the mayor telegraphed the governor seeking help from the Texas Rangers. When the train arrived, just one Ranger got off the train. The incredulous mayor asked if there was only one Ranger dispatched, to which the Ranger replied that his understanding was that there was only one riot.
“Bad Bets: Massive EV Subsidies Not Paying Off” [Real Clear Investigations – 02/26/2026]
The future was supposed to have arrived this year in a cluster of counties just east of Atlanta in the form of a state-of-the-art factory that would churn out 400,000 electric vehicles a year. But when JoEllen Artz looks about her lifetime neighborhood, all she sees are holes. “Those shovel holes they made in the ground? That’s it,” she said of the planned site of a Rivian manufacturing plant. “It’s awful, awful.” The problem is not a lack of funds. On the promise of thousands of jobs, elected officials in Washington, D.C., and Atlanta have pledged some $8 billion to the project, including a $6.5 billion loan the Biden administration green-lit in its final hours. Those loans are just two of the huge public bets, or investments, that state capitals and Washington, D.C., have made on EVs. While no one has calculated exactly how many federal and state dollars both Republican and Democratic elected officials have sent to that green sector, experts RealClearInvestigations consulted fixed the total north of $100 billion.
Public spending on green energy projects, including EVs, began in earnest in May 2009 when President Obama, flanked in the Rose Garden by Detroit and United Auto Workers executives, unveiled his National Fuel Efficiency Policy. It was, the crowd insisted, “good for consumers, good for the economy, and good for the country.” There has been bipartisan support for many EV initiatives, and the sector got a huge boost during the Biden administration when funding linked to a NetZero future spread throughout the federal government. The bill goes well beyond the billions of dollars in tax credits the federal government provided to EV buyers until that program was ended last September, and includes school buses, postal delivery vehicles, charging stations, and the big manufacturing loans. The Energy Department, for example, has spent more than $30 billion. That chunk comes from the Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing division. Prior to 2019, the ATVM, as it is known, had issued around $8 billion in loans to five different companies. Of those, Nissan repaid its $1.4 billion loan, while Tesla repaid its $465 million loan years ahead of schedule. A $5 billion loan to Ford remains active, but taxpayers lost nearly $210 million on loans to Fisker Automotive and Vehicle Production Group, both of which defaulted, according to the department.
Some states have labored to force EVs into the market. More than a dozen of them have followed California’s lead, requiring at least 35% of cars offered for sale there annually be “ZEVs,” or “zero emission vehicles,” with all cars being ZEVs by 2035. This complicated, opaque system has made all cars more expensive, according to economists. Congress voted last year to kill California’s plan, but President Trump has not acted on that, and state officials have vowed to sue if he signs it. On top of the costs of those market manipulations, which can be difficult to compute, are billions in direct state spending on EVs and EV-related projects. Both Republican and Democratic elected officials supporting these moves have done so on the grounds that it would provide an economic boost and be good for the environment. Rivian, whose corporate communications did not respond to RCI’s request for comment, hasn’t only benefited from the Biden administration’s last-minute loan. In 2022, the state’s Republican leadership in Atlanta pledged up to another $1.5 billion – one of the largest incentive packages in Georgia history – including tax incentives, abatements, support programs, and more than $175 million for land acquisition and improvements. There has been an estimated $25 million in local incentives provided, too.

We tested the relationship in this chart (Texas primary / Texas general elections 2000–2024) and it’s basically noise:
• correlation r ≈ 0.13 (R² ≈ 0.02)
• a 10-point swing in the primary maps to ~0.4 points in the general
-------
Essentially, there is no relation between primary turnout and general election turnout in Texas (and in general). If there were, Obama would have won the 2008 general election.

The problem is Texas run offs generate no more than 50% of the Texas primary voters.
Since women outvote men when it comes to showing up for elections, this means the electorate will be far more female and far more "consistent always voter" in May...and that does not bode well for Paxton.

He’s the kind of candidate Democrats have been waiting for: young, articulate, values-driven, and unapologetically bold without being alienating. In a state that’s been trending competitive for years, a disciplined campaign focused on working families, public education, and fundamental rights can flip Texas statewide.
Trump will weaponize mashed potatoes if Talarico gains any more traction. He might be squeaky clean, but that no defense against a nuclear lying machine.
Trump changed everything. Fight gorilla politics with gorilla politics. Get a following, build it, and then use it as much as damn possible to get as much power as possible.
If Talarico is willing to call for accountability if he gets to Washington, then he has my support. I haven't heard that from him, unlike Crockett, she is very outspoken about the corruption and calls it out boldly all the time. That's the energy we need right now.
A black woman will not beat a white man for senate in Texas. I'm sorry, but it's just reality.

It's an R+14 state with a huge evangelical population.
And the footage of Talarico saying that "God is non-binary" and that "trans-kids were made by God that way" and that "the southern border should be a welcome mat" and "we have to have federally funded abortion clinics" is going to short-circuit any, "Well, if you think about it, God doesn't have a gender, and that's really what I was getting at."
And then they have footage of him quoting the Gospel of Thomas.

Nope, b/c I'm not a Texan. And to be fair, I'm not all in on Paxton anymore than Cornyn. Both probably do what we want only when they have something to gain or we have their dicks in our hands. Neither should really be trusted to be our TX savior. I mean, when have we had one?
So, I just call elections like I see it. Paxton needed to have a winning margin to have a chance in May. Instead, he had a losing margin and nowhere to really now gain (b/c Dems can't cross over to put him in as a spoiler, anymore than they can cross over the go for their more desired RINO)...so, this rides and falls on which Rs show up for elections - and women outshow men, especially on special elections - that's just fact. And Cornyn does better with R women than Paxton does. Paxton has little chance without something big changing this election between now and May...and I don't see it.

i]Regarding the current disruption to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, Schweizer said, “we now have a chokehold on the Strait.” He said:
Assume that China wanted to move on Taiwan, right? There’s a military response. But now we have a massive energy response which is we simply don’t allow any tankers to ship oil from the Persian Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz. We can do it. It might have been a little bit dicey if we had not taken out the Iranians. That’s roughly half of their oil — 40 to 50% of their oil — is suddenly not available to them.

Sometimes on the discussion forums they’ll try to point out that the automobile made horses obsolete overnight.
“But they didn’t have to outlaw horses. It was voluntary” is not well received, and usually get the thread locked. The worst thing about modern life is censorship.

That's the part that does not make sense to me. If they mean to muscle their way into Taiwan, they need to means test their shit and tactics.
Maybe this will prompt them to go for some sort of more subterfuge.
Posted by: Aetius451AD
China's offense against Taiwan was predicated on the same tactics used by the Iranians. Barrage of missiles taking out US bases like Guam and its ships. Same threat to Japan.
And these magical hypersonic missiles got built up into the unstoppable weapon by much of the popular press.
Now those fundamental assertions that China can rely on that strategy for uncontested landings in Taiwan can be seriously questioned as to validity.

The Bolshies were hitting this hard decades ago. They put forth this notion in high schools, that incarceration rates must mirror the precise racial demographics or, the only possible reason for the disparity is racial discrimination. No other reason.
It didn’t work in our generation. Everyone in class just looked at each other and laughed. WTF is she on about? Black criminality is legendary.
Maybe there could be a discussion as to why that is, but nobody can argue that locking up hard core criminals is a bad thing. Except perhaps hard core criminals. And Democrats.
If the argument is that the criminal justice system is inherently “racist” or “white supremacy” then there isn’t any discussion possible with Democrats, and “minorities” are not capable of integrating into society or forming functional communities. I’m not at all certain the “intellectuals” fully grasp what they are advocating for.

Gospel of Thomas likely did not exist when Justin Martyr was citing Jesus' sayings, which somewhat-famously come from a harmony, a harmony with very little overlap with Thomas.
You start seeing Thomas in Church fathers when they... condemn it.
Even the Gospel of Peter fares better (Ignatius and "2 Clement" use some wild Peter lore which might come from that, maybe Justin uses it too, and then there's the famous tradition about Serapion).
Clement of Alexandria is an exception; he doesn't rank Thomas with the big four, but he does sometimes bring apostolic traditions which include Thomas' sayings.

There's a psychological element to this whole thing, and Republicans are just...boring when they just accept leftist framing of things.

There's a joke early in this thread about women needing to get together and chat, but honestly, the best thing for R states is for men to form groups encouraging each other to vote...every time...no matter how worthless it feels. Men, especially R men, seem way more affected by the "we're gonna lose, so why bother" vote conditioning, and holding each other accountable to show up might help...a lot...

25 years maybe? Largely. In human history, that’s a revolution overnight.
What’s really strange is the almost cult-like belief system by the True Believers. I’m not wedded to oil and gas, it’s merely the fact there is no viable replacement on the horizon.
The first oil shocks, the Arab Embargo, put a lot of research and development into alternatives, building upon lots of research done during World War II.
One of the first things FDR did to piss off Imperial Japan was ending sales of aviation gasoline. They responded by developing planes that could run on lower octane fuel. Then they cutoff oil and gas altogether. It’s likely the fleet and aircraft that attacked Pearl Harbor was fueled by US oil and gas.

This is actually very much what Trump did with his 2nd term cabinet and lieutenant picks. First term, he trusted the Party to help supply him with "experts". He got a bunch of backstabbing RINOs trying to moderate his agenda, or subvert it completely to GOPe goals.
This time, he primarily picked people that know and hate what the institutions they were picked to run have become. Tulsi at intel, RFK at health, etc. Trump wants to dismantle, shrink and refocus the Federal government, and he has people personally driven to do the same with their departments.

@USWREMichael
says the Maduro raid was the trigger point for the DoW’s conflict with Anthropic:
“Palantir’s the prime contractor. [Anthropic] is the sub.”
“One of [Anthropic’s] execs called Palantir and asked, ‘Was our software used in that raid?’”
“So— they’re trying to get classified information. And implying— if they were used in that raid, that it might violate their terms of service.”
“It raised enough alarm with Palantir, who has a trusted relationship with the Department, to tell me, and I’m like, ‘Holy shit— what if this software went down? Some guardrail kicked up? Some refusal happened for the next fight like this one and we left our people at risk?”
“I went to
@SecWar
@PeteHegseth
and told him what happened.”
“That was like a ‘Woah’ moment for the whole leadership at the Pentagon that we’re potentially so dependent on a software provider without another alternative that has the right or ability to not only shut it off— maybe it’s a rogue developer who could poison the model to make it not do what you want, or trick you, or hallucinate purposefully.”

It would be very interesting to look at the total energy budget to make ethanol, from the time the seeded passes over the field, until the ethanol comes off the still, and compare that to other crop-based fuels, like say growing canola to make oil that can be burned in diesel engines. And then compare both to the costs of producing petroleum fuels for the same purpose.

Polling now is largely worthless. The best pollsters I look at with a side eye.
It's a twofold issue of incentives (no one is scored on how accurate their polls months out are) and response bias (progressives have long shown a higher propensity for actually answering pollsters, inflating their numbers, a pattern that gets much, much worse outside of election seasons).
But, the tweet was a look into the past about how primary turnout and general election turnout relate. No matter the year, there was no predictive value. It's statistical noise.

Rasmussen was very accurate for 2024, but more importantly is the trends. We can't know how accurate the specific numbers are, but a trend showing an increase in popularity is a but more meaningful. Whether it's a SOTU bump, positive war rallying, or improved perception of the economy is the question.

Helmut Northpol had a more concise model that predicted Trump's win in 2016 in March of that year.
I took a look at the website, Universe: Registered voters
Sample Size: 1,000
Method: Online Panel
Field Dates: Nov 11 - Nov 12, 2025
Margin of Error: ±3.3%
Online panels have not shown themselves to be particularly valid yet. No evidence of geographic weighting either. And they show Trump's approval at about 45 percent. Youngest 18-29 years olds are showing the highest disapproval as well which are actually the ones least likely to vote.

That’s a false assertion and you know it.
What I pondered is whether at some point, after numerous like results and a statistical increase in Democrat turnout- if it matters. Or at least, at what point does it?
Trump broke all types of records and statistics. Is your assertion that primary voting numbers don’t matter, and nothing in those statistics is in any way predictive of the November election?
I suppose one could state that, largely the can’t be correlated, but when, and under what conditions does that correlation break down?
It would be foolish, sophistic and a statistical impossibility that your theorem would apply 100% of the time. Ergo, I posit, under what conditions does that change.
And you throw the fallacy flag. lol.

But then, it seems you’re out of your depth.
It’s ok. Not everyone can follow logic.
You seem to be holding to the assertion that nothing in the midterm statistics is analogous to the November elections. Not any deviation. Not any particular measurement. Which is a statistical impossibility.
If you were to say, it’s largely not analogous but here is a category and deviation that is meaningful, we could have an honest discussion.
But you’re going to schmolls with questionable internals and ad hominem.
Got it, Prometheus.

Rasmussen was very accurate for 2024, but more importantly is the trends. We can't know how accurate the specific numbers are, but a trend showing an increase in popularity is a but more meaningful. Whether it's a SOTU bump, positive war rallying, or improved perception of the economy is the question.

That handsome beast does look much like Lassie. I haven't seen many collies in real life; the weather in Da Swamp is too hot and humid for a long-coated dog like that.
Are the trees really that blue, or is EH pushing the limits of his artistic license? Using the blueness to suggest evening light?

Edward Hopper
National Gallery of Art:
Edward Hopper
Painter, American, 1882 - 1967
In part - The artist stated: “It is no transcription of a place, but pieced together from sketches and mental impressions of things in the vicinity. . . . The dry, blowing grass can be seen from my studio window in the late summer or autumn. In the woman I attempted to get the broad, strong-jawed face and blond hair of a Finnish type of which there are many on the Cape. The man is a dark-haired Yankee. The dog is listening to something, probably a whippoorwill [sic] or some evening sound.”
I love this to end the week.
Thank you.

Has a strong resemblance to our Red Heeler "Peppy". Sometimes called a Queensland Heeler, her variety of Australian Cattle Dog was initially the result of a rancher breeding a Standard Collie with a dingo.

We tested the relationship in this chart (Texas primary / Texas general elections 2000–2024) and it’s basically noise:
• correlation r ≈ 0.13 (R² ≈ 0.02)
• a 10-point swing in the primary maps to ~0.4 points in the general
-----
Essentially, turnout during a primary is not at all indicative of performance in a general election. If it were, Obama would have won Texas in 2008. He did not win Texas in 2008.

Part of the appeal for me is nostalgia. I'm old enough to remember Cape Cod as a pleasant, seaside community, not some loud fashionable fag haven. A nice touch is the red tin roof on the left. Those were easy to maintain and made a pleasant sound during rainy days and nights.

I just assume that the turnout differentials that arise from parties out of power performing better than parties in power in midterms plays out this year.
But, gerrymandering after 2020 is so strong (the emphasis was really on expanding safe seats, not maximizing the number of seats won, especially in red states) that the number of actually competitive seats is so small. It's less than 30.
That will direct investment and prevent any major swings either way, meaning that we'll probably see a change of 10-15 at a maximum.
Still, a lot of open questions about the utility of fed grants for election funding, the effects of DOJ suing for voter roll cleanups, and kind of a generalized feeling of success from the Trump administration on the base that will lead to perhaps modified voting patterns.

I think this first one is big. While the money supply to leftwing activists isn't gone, it has been significantly reduced.
Fewer people in the fraud industry and there will be less fraud. Now two interesting aspects to this
1) Can they easily control who gets the remaining money? For example make that NGO worker that submits ballots for illegals move from Philly or Baltimore to some purplish area?
2) Did CA cut their redistricting too close where significant reductions in fake votes means they lost a ton of seats?

Oh, there will be impeachment votes, but there won't be eight of them.
The first will take months to come together because of the sub-committee on impeachment needing to soak up every moment of airtime they can get to fundraise off of the horrible things they're finding but can't talk about.

I think a lot of it is that neither of my parents were fans, so it's just not something I grew up with.
So the fawning adoration they get is always going to make them seem overrated to me.

----------
Don't forget the most common behavior from the Left is just lying to get you into a certain position and then pulling the rug out or pretending they never said the thing they said.
So anything that sounds good will be what they go with because they know once you commit, you are trapped anyway and they have what they want so it literally doesn't matter what they told you because they can just lie some more.

I think about that style of band and think about the stuff I enjoy more even though in some obscure technical way they may be inferior (except the Beach Boys imo are actually superior there.)
The Hollies
The Beach Boys
Even the Fucking Monkees
The Beatles (and I say that in my head as BE-AT-Lays) are by turns dour and a bit weird.

The most common was "give them a reason to work hard and they will". But...this is refuted by the original statement. Right now these people are in aggregate not working let alone not working hard.
One of the other comments was perhaps more accidentally revealing, "Why do you rightwingers think people that have issues working should have to grind to have a decent living?"

Back in high school I was hitchhiking with a friend, from the Cape ironically enough, in NH on I-93. Not an uncommon thing back then. Got picked up by a couple in their late 20s.
It wasn't until we were heading a bit down the road we noticed the empty bottles and faint odor of weed. We got passed by a couple of NH state police cars escorting the governor, Meldrim Thompson. The dude driving thought it would be a good idea to catch up to them and flip off the governor. It was not a good idea.

Holistic Medicine
Vinegar – Mix one cup of white or apple cider vinegar into a bathtub of cool water. The acetic acid in the vinegar acts as a topical pain reliever equivalent to an over-the-counter pain medication. Soak in the bath for 15 to 20 minutes. Don’t use soap. It will dry and irritate your skin. After soaking, rinse with cool water.
Then Aloe Vera, teabags, vitamin D...

Already seen a lot of articles and publicity, so it definitely seems in the works. I'm not clear about how it would work, a lot of what went on in the original series just doesn't hold up in 2026, in some cases simply because technology outran some of his tactics.

The Morning Report — 3/6/26
The fact the ship has been handed over to the Sri Lankan authorities so quickly strongly suggests the captain took the decision to preserve the life of his men by opting out of the conflict. . . Given the facts as known, this is the first time since the Second World War that a warship has been interned by the government of a neutral power. During the Second World War, several damaged U-Boats were able to limp to neutral harbours and turn themselves over to the authorities after being damaged in attacks, preferring to see out the remainder of the war in captivity rather than the certainty of death at sea.And crucially Azerbaijan coming in against the Mullahs
President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan declared on Thursday that his country would use “the full might of our ‘Iron Fist'” against the terrorist regime in Iran after drones flying in from Iran struck an airport and near a school building in the Caucasus nation.You might recall that during the Obama reign of error, Azerbaijan was going to allow Israel to base strike aircraft on its territory, making it much easier for the Israelis to reach Iranian targets with adequate payloads and fuel for the return trip, while attacking from the north, which would provide for the element of surprise. And Obama, being the Jew-hating dog-eating Muslim traitor he is, tipped off the Mullahs to this. Whether Israel alone even with these advantages could have achieved anywhere near a successful knockout blow against the Iranian nuke facilities back then is debatable, but in the event, it's now obviously a moot point. On a positive note, along with Israel, Azerbaijan for sure does not want to see another Mullahocracy take control and so has a vested interest in real regime change. Turning back to the USA, the big story is the departure of Kristi Norm from the Dept. of Homeland Security.
Noem’s tenure as head of DHS comes to an end after a heated Senate hearing, in which Noem blamed Trump for approving questionable contracts worth over $200 million for deportation ads, which raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest.Say what you will about her personally, but the fact of the matter is DHS, with her as its administrator, was the key agency that finally sealed our border and deported thousands of illegal aliens, representing a key, if not the most important accomplishment for President Trump's administration to date, and fulfilling a campaign promise and the longstanding desire of all real Americans who voted for and support this President. And now Sen. Markwayne Mullin has been tapped to replace her.
An administration official reportedly told NBC News that Trump decided to fire Noem due to “a culmination of her many unfortunate leadership failures including the fallout in Minnesota, the ad campaign, the allegations of infidelity, the mismanagement of her staff, and her constant feuding with the heads of other agencies, including CBP and ICE.” The official allegedly said: “Kristi’s drama sadly overshadowed and distracted from the Administration’s extremely popular immigration agenda, which will continue full force.”Well, unnamed sources, so there you go. But the fact remains that Trump sacked her. And with regards to Minnesota, is she being blamed for the multi-billion dollar Somali/Democrat grifting or ICE rounding up the grifters, which is what they're supposed to do?! The fact that the Democrats and their propagandists in the media are over the moon about Noem's departure leaves me more than a wee bit disappointed. Have a great Weekend!
And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

How Israel’s Blue Sparrow Strike Flew Through Space and Caught Iran Off Guard - Sri Lanka (Ceylon) has assumed control of the Islamic Republic of Iran Ship (IRIS) Bushehr, a fleet supply ship (oiler). Sri Lanka has sent craft to receive the 1970s-era ship within its territorial waters and, per local media, has taken off 208 officers and men, who are to be sent ashore. The ship will now be taken by the Sri Lankans to Trincomalee for internment for the duration of hostilities.

Regime Change Vs. Regime Replacement: Lessons From History
- No one wants another war, but Biden proved appeasement doesn't work. (It wasn't appeasement so much as it was COLLUSION. Biden, i.e. OBAMA wanted Iran to get nukes and become the dominant power in the region. Even if it meant, and really wanting the destruction of Israel - jjs)
Why Trump Took on Iran - As the Operation Roaring Lion enters its sixth day, the Israeli Air Force has destroyed more than 300 ballistic missile launchers across Iran.

- "We're not just hitting what they have," Cooper said. "We're destroying their ability to rebuild. And so as we transition to the next phase of this operation, we will systematically dismantle Iran's missile production capability for the future, and that's absolutely in progress."
Iranian Ballistic Missile Fire Down 90 Percent Since Start of Operation Epic Fury, Pentagon Says - Prediction: This war will end with Iran’s mullahs still in control. (At least, the ones that haven’t been killed yet.) Because it has to: We’re hoping the Iranian civilians will rise up and overthrow the government, but they can’t do that until the bombing stops. Which means that immediately after America and Israel conclude their air strikes, Iran will claim victory because it’s still standing.
Iran’s Strategy to Defeat America, Shatter the MAGA Movement, and End Trump’s Presidency
- I’m confident it’s going to be the same in Iran. Unlike Iraq and Afghanistan, where stupid people like me believed you could turn 7th-century goat herders and religious fanatics into Thomas Jefferson, Trump’s stated goals in Iran are clear: Annihilate Iran’s rocket, missile, and ballistic missile capabilities. Destroy their nuclear program. Remove any leader who does not accept this or who continues to fund terrorism outside of Iran. The Trump Doctrine is that you state your objective, achieve your objectives, and then you declare victory and get out.

- Short version: Putin is stirring up ethnic crap in western Ukraine to distract from the ethnic crap he’s stirring up in eastern Ukraine, and he’s being aided in his efforts by pro-Moscow forces in Budapest and by ethnic Rusyns overseas.

- A once-banned novel about migration and civilizational guilt reads today less like dystopia than prophecy—an unsettling mirror held up to a West losing the will to defend itself.
The Camp of the Living Dead
- Christian Toto: Film captures career of one of comedy's most consequential figure
Will ‘Lorne’ Doc Ask the One Question We’re All Wondering?
- Time and again, what appears to be the inexorable march to the hard left turns out to be another example of fake news. Traditional, right-of-center Americans are usually too peace-loving to take to the streets and too respectful of law and order to vandalize stores or set buildings on fire when things don’t go their way. Often, it looks like most of the momentum is on the left by their frequent shows of riotous force.
From Bud Light to Netflix, Traditional Americans Keep Winning the War on ‘Woke’ HITHER & YON - Selections from The Camp of the Saints revisit a dystopian warning about mass migration, cultural collapse, and the West’s moral paralysis—one that many readers now see as uncomfortably prophetic.
Excerpted Passages from a New Translation of Jean Raspail’s The Camp of the Saints
- Above all, however, this history does illustrate what Washington himself believed, that God himself was on his side, that “the same bountiful Providence, which has relieved us in a variety of difficulties before, will enable us to emerge from them ultimately and crown our struggles
with success.” Tuchman illustrates the almost miraculous confluence of events that made
that success possible. And in looking at those facts, it sure looks like God was playing favorites in making the birth of the United States possible.

DENVER — The City and County of Denver will give 34 yearling bison to American Indian tribes, on Friday, March 6.
The transfer is part of an ongoing effort to return the animals to their native homes and support conservation efforts on tribal land. The bison are part of the herd you see at Genesee Park along I-70.
Sidenote: our queer governor's partner in sodomy- sorry, 'husband'- is an animals rights fetishist, so it's plausible he has a hand in this

The same ideological maniacs will still be running things and in enough time, they'll be back to business as usual. But as I reiterate, I know nothing...

Note that Iran is only hitting fixed targets like buildings, radar sites. They would love to hit a USN carrier, but even if told where it was, they can not.
For mobility reasons i.e. time to get info to the launch crews but the carrier has moved, plus they do not have the right missiles for that.

A compliant set of mullahs would be fine. No nuking up, no sponsoring terror, and China gets their oil at market rates once they demonstrate compliance and we lift the sanctions. No more bargains for them.
It's not the optimal answer, and it would blow for the Iranians - but it would be an acceptable outcome.

- Presumably because a DC grand jury, whose deliberations are secret, refused to indict.
- Ditto.
But, sure, if only the AG had a huge swinging cock and was gunning down Democrats in the street... then everything would be better.
If only Bondi flouted the law like Garland - who had the bureaucracy and judiciary in his corner... then everything would be better.

"... the claim that pro-Israel and anti-Hamas accounts were being paid $7,000 was just projection and made up lies by people who actually have been given $7,000 by bad actors.
FEC records reveal that @RepThomasMassie, who has been spreading the lie that pro- Israel accounts are paid $7,000 per post, has actually been receiving donations of $7,000 from Muslim donors.
This explains why Massie appears to be pro-Iran and why he wants to limit President Trump’s ability to carry out strikes in Iran.
Another purveyor of the $7,000 lie used to attack Jews is @tparsi Trita Parsi, the founder of NIAC, and the founder of the Quincy Institute, who keeps appearing on @Bannons_WarRoom."

When high-ranking Iranian officials close to the supreme leader went to the dentist or doctor, they ended up with a Mossad agent; if they got their molars fixed or had an endoscopy done, they’d insert nano-trackers into them.

I think Noem was fired in much the same way Bovino was fired. After the shootings in MN, it was reported Trump was firing Bovino. In reality he moved back to his previous role in California but that didn't get many headlines.
Tomorrow, the first meeting of Shield is being held in Miami. Attending will be Latin American leaders like Bukele and Miele, Marco, Hegseth, Trump and Noem. In my experience fired people don't get a big new job and a high profile meeting with the boss.
I think Noem was becoming too much of the story in her current role, some her fault some not, and Trump thought it was time for a new leader with less baggage but he still wanted Noem on his team in a different role where the scrutiny would be different.

One of the critical jobs, maybe the most critical job, of a truly new, non-secular Iranian government is preventing sizable counter-revolution forces from surviving.
I'll bet everything I have the IRGC is already implementing counter-revolution plans. IRGC must have a number of hideouts for after a regime catastrophe of some sort, prepared and stocked in remote corners of the country. Mossad and the CIA likely know the locations. Or will find out. But it seems to me some sort of Tora Bora infantry forces search and destroy effort will be needed. To minimize if not quickly stop counter-revolution forces forming and recruiting in the boonies, a lot of executions may be necessary. Messy business ahead. Necessary business in my opinion.

At the same time, the unemployment rate edged higher to 4.4% as jobs declined across key areas.
======================
28,000 of that number was due to a strike at Kaiser Permanente that is now resolved, so that will flip in the next report.
Another large decline came at the federal government
In February, federal government employment continued to decline (-10,000). Since reaching a
peak in October 2024, federal government employment is down by 330,000, or 11.0 percent.

Another silver lining: The legislature is time-limited to 60 days in even-numbered years and 30 days in odd-numbered years (they can extend up to 30 days with 2/3 concurrence of the House and Senate).
VA Dems know that in November 2027 they could very well lose one or both of the House and Senate, which will hamper Spanberger's final two years, so they have to do all they can now and any leftovers next year. Although she can do plenty of damage with executive power.

The dispute dates back to 2023, when two teachers sued the school district, seeking an exemption from the district’s policies regarding gender and pronouns. They were later joined as plaintiffs by parents whose children socially transitioned at school (or who believed that their children socially transitioned at school).
The district court ruled for the challengers, but the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit put that order on hold while the state appealed. The challengers then came to the Supreme Court, asking the justices to intervene. In a mixed ruling on Monday night, the majority handed a victory to the parents but turned down the request from the teachers.

I went to the ER January 16th for a kidney stone. When they did a CT scan to check the stone, they found a 50mm by 60mm mass just off of my pancreas. They couldn't tell what it was because the CT scan was done without contrast.
I went in last Thursday for an Upper GI Endoscopy and biopsy. The doctor that did it still wasn't sure what it was. He said it looked like a sack of marbles with fluid. They biopsied a round thing and aspirated some of the fluid. I had a doctor's appointment this afternoon and got the results.
It is NOT cancer.
They still aren't sure where it came from, what caused it, or if any organ is feeding it. I have a follow-up scan next month and they'll see if it's growing or not.

The only point of this is to get a regime that will not monetarily support interntaional terrorism and nuclear ambitions.
Islamic cleric, secular monarch, democratically elected president, it doesn't matter their background.
We're not bombing missile sites deep in the mountains to secure democracy. We're bombing missile sites deep in the mountains to kill military capabilities. Israel is targeting political leadership who would use it.
Regime change will probably be necessary, but that doesn't mean that Trump has to portray himself as bloodthirsty and obsessed with making Iran America.

Doubt that will change anything. The key to winning at SCOTUS is bribing Thomas. We all know how bitchy he gets when he doesn't get any money. Last time he stopped speaking during work for 10 years.
As an attorney, the McConnell rigged Supreme Courts opinions are all non-binding. It's political theatre. There is no such thing as law at this point. It's whichever political party is in power and can enforce said rulings or non rulings through State violence.
This is the issue. If they can arbitrarily ignore legal precedent and language, what makes their opinions have staying power? They’re reasoned against the prevailing way law has been interpreted for a very long time. There’s no foundation under the house.

On the bright side, post on X claims and explains how Israeli hackers used the IRGC street and university surveillance system of street cameras including facial recognition to build a database of the entire IRGC and Basiji members. The surveillance system built by Chicoms was for creating an Iranian database for the regime to go after protesters and regime opponents.
The system also apparently caught much of the street violence where the Iranians killed innocent protesters (the drive by shootings) and these have been used to turn relatives of the dead into informants for Israeli intel.

We are bombing known missile caches under the mountains. We are bombing individual missile launchers.
The missile launch capabilities of Iran are massively reduced, evidenced by their massively reduced missile activity.
If the only acceptable target is 100% all missile and launchers destroyed, it's a target that will never be achieved, but Iran's missile program is...not very strong right now.

And that is specifically what is being done. No openings, the big caves become tombs. If you look at bomb pictures, where you see smoke rising in a vertical pillar above the bomb explosion, that means it was a penetrator. Probably our 2000 lb cheap type which I forget the designation.
In a very permissive air environment where aircraft can loiter, we can be very precise even with relatively dumb bombs with a JDAM kit attached.
Remember, one of the problems of caves and explosions is that like the Hezbollah head, if the blast does not get you, then the poisonous vapors can and do kill people in unventilated bunkers. Most of those vapors are heavier than air.

I implicitly trust the bulk of Iranians to choose wisely. They're DONE with this bullshit.
But the choice isn't theirs.
The proportion of Shia fanatics outstrips the carrying capacity of any government that isn't fanatical Shia. They'll destroy any attempt at it. So the way I see it, it leaves us three options.
1.) Let them choose new leaders, and guarantee this new regime's defense from the Islamists in to the foreseeable future: unacceptable.
2.) Let them choose new leaders, and leave them to be destroyed by the Islamists until such time as they regain power and start terrorizing the world again, and then do this same thing again: shitty but acceptable.
3.) Choose an acceptable Muslim leader to dominate the country, someone not too insanely radical but strong enough to impose order... someone like Qaddafi: still shitty, but probably the least risk to us.
No good option is on the table. A free and prosperous Iran is not achievable without a permanent presence, and likely not even then. We need out of this.

Governor (who is a conservative R) appoints someone to serve until a special election is held on the next regularly-scheduled general election day to fill the remainder of the term. Mullin was elected in 2022.
Of note, the appointee cannot run in the election to fill the remainder of the term, and must be a member for at least the past 5 years of the same party as the departing senator.

So, in person, Newsom seems to be parsing and weaselly. He hedges his bets and wants to play both sides. In his social media, he is trying to swing his dick over his head and he does not care who gets smacked.
Is his campaign people forcing him into way harder positions than he himself would take? Is he really just an empty suit being driven by others? Ron Burgundy.

Immediate filling, resignation does not take place until end of March reportedly which allows confirmation vote before then. A new nominee is inserted immediately after the resignation takes effect from governor's appointment. It does, however, mean another special Senate election in November 2026 to fill the rest of Markwayne's term (to 202
but since Oklahoma, unlikely to be a Dem and the appointed senator can run as incumbent in that election. Posted by: whig at March 06, 2026 09:24 AM (E4rtv)

I think the problem was that Noem tried to claim Trump approved them and with the government cutting spending, $220 million may be a bit much.
Noem and Lewandowski's alleged affair came back up at the Senate hearing along and she has had internal fights with the head of Border Patrol, ICE, and Trump's immigration czar Homan.

It was done that way to avoid incumbency advantage. Interestingly, the governor is term-limited so if he has designs on becoming a senator for longer than 7 months he can't appoint himself.

The contracts scandal at DHS is extremely bad, possibly criminal. NBC reporting that Noem made her random helper from South Dakota the *deputy director of ICE* (bad in itself), who then ordered a SECOND contract to be given to the exact same firms that the $200M were steered to. . .

"President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan declared on Thursday that his country would use “the full might of our ‘Iron Fist'” against the terrorist regime in Iran after drones flying in from Iran struck an airport and near a school building in the Caucasus nation."
Interesting. Would be surprised if Z & a tad of NATO aren't in on it.
AI Overview:As of early 2026, relations between the Republic of Azerbaijan and Russia are in a state of "limbo" or strained, marked by a widening gap between Moscow's rhetoric and legal actions following a December 2024 plane crash incident. While traditionally strategic partners with a 338 km border and $5 billion+ in annual trade, Azerbaijan is actively distancing itself from Russia's influence, balancing relations through ties with Turkey and NATO while supporting Ukraine's territorial integrity.

And that is a problem no doubt. You can see hobbyist videos on YT where hackers take apart these Chicom cheap routers, wireless access points, etc. and they spill info to overseas ip addresses. One trick is to put $(reboot) into the initial login screen as a password and on the no security types, it will launch a reboot of the device (it can also soft brick it so beware of doing that).
Best to stay away from no name internet cameras, networking, and IOT devices sold cheap at Amazon, Temu, et.
Plenty of decent equipment used on Ebay for things like network switches, etc. and the brand name stuff is only a few bucks more. Not all name brand are safe but rather safer in combination with locking down your router and outside comms from your network.

Stitt's term is up in 2026 anyway as governor and he is term limited. So the appointment is likely to be a Stitt placeholder and Stitt is probably the leading candidate for the special election to fill the rest of the term if he wants it. Name recognition and money enough to drive away serious contenders on the GOP side.

>Congressional Hearing: During a House Judiciary Committee hearing on March 4, 2026, Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-Calif.) directly asked Secretary Noem if she had "sexual relations" with her top adviser, Corey Lewandowski.
Non-Denial: Noem did not directly deny the allegation, instead calling the question "tabloid garbage" and accusing the committee of sexism.
Reports of Dismissal: Reports indicate that this "non-answer" was considered a "final straw" by the White House, leading to her being fired by President Trump shortly after.
Context: The alleged affair, along with accusations of mismanagement at the DHS, has been widely covered by various news outlets.
BTW, both Noem and Lewandowski are still married to their respective spouses.
Then:
As of early March 2026, U.S. Secretary of Labor Lori Chavez-DeRemer is facing an internal investigation regarding allegations of misconduct, including an claimed affair with a member of her security detail.
Her husband, Dr. Shawn DeRemer, is accused of touching two women inappropriately at the agency in Washington.

I like Stephen Green in general, but he's needlessly complicating the history of "Subcarpathian Ukraine." The history is pretty straightforward, actually, before 1920. It was part of the old Hungarian Kingdom before the Treaty of Trianon. Even under Austrian occupation or in the Turkish occupation period, it was considered part of occupied Hungary.
After 1920, it changed hands a bunch of times, but between the wars it was Czechoslovakia, during WW2 it went back to Hungary, then after WW2 it was first USSR and then now Ukraine. (Green does a good job of noting the exceptions to this, but those aren't that important.)
There is a small Hungarian minority there, of 150K people, but yes, they've always been mistreated by the Soviet and Ukrainian authorities. Green is acting like this is some kind of pro-Putin conspiracy theory. Its not.
150K people isn't a lot, but the whole Hungarian nation is about 10 million, so its more important to them than it would be to a larger nation.
And generally speaking, Hungary doesn't want it back. Its super-poor!

Not divesting, but not investing further either.

- AI generated results in Bing search pointed users at malicious versions of OpenClaw that attempted to install a whole swarm of malware onto your computer. (Bleeping Computer)
Even worse than the legitimate version of OpenClaw, I mean.
- The CEO of cheating app Cluely lied about the company's revenue. (Tech Crunch)
That's slightly worse than trying to fudge your term paper.
- There is no longer a 512GB Mac Studio. (Macrumors)
It was expensive. Now it's gone.
- Nvidia on the other hand is reportedly preparing an RTX 5050 with 9GB of RAM. (Tom's Hardware)
That's up from the current 8GB, but the details kind of make sense given the exact specs of the 5050. The update would switch from four 16Gb DDR6 chips running at 20GHz to three 24Gb DDR7 chips running at 28GHz.
It would provide a little more memory and a little more performance while using fewer components. The rest of Nvidia's 5000 series graphics cards all use DDR7 memory; the entry-level 5050 was the only one that did not.
- Lenovo's Idea Tab Pro Gen 2 is set to arrive in March. (Liliputing)
I have the smaller, cheaper Idea Tab Nothing. It's not an amazing performer but the display is first rate - Lenovo calls it "paperlike" and I can't disagree. It doesn't feel like looking at a screen at all; it feels like magic.
The new model has a 13" 3540x2190 display (mine has an 11" 2560x1600 screen), 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, a microSD slot, and a pen. The specs don't use the term "paperlike" anywhere but I hope it's similar.

Kristi Noem was tapped to lead S.H.I.E.L.D., which -- to everyone's disappointment -- means she gets Samuel L. Jackson's eyepatch instead of a Black Widow bodysuit. On the upside, this unlocks the possibility of a World of Tomorrow crossover with the Sky Captain.

I guess most people are not aware of what Iran’s capabilities were, and why this had to be a major, weeks long war, not just some one and done raid. Besides the larger warships, Iran has bragged about having as many as 3000 - 5000 speedboats with a couple of missiles strapped to them, as well as almost 20 mini submarines that have a 7 man crew and a couple of torpedoes.
The purpose of all of these light forces was not to face other military units, it is to hide out near the straits and attack all civilian shipping.
They have no defensive capability and can be stopped, but it is going to require the complete destruction of every dock and every village along the 50 mile length of the straits to do so. That will take time, and hundreds of sorties. (If not thousands)

The Chinese are negotiating a way to let their oil transports through.
A big problem is that a lot of natural gas from the Emirates goes through the strait. Most of that goes to Europe.
The Europeans are more than likely to blame Trump and complain than to blame Iran and jump in the fight

It's about the only play the mullahs have is to force the price of oil up hoping that puts pressure on Trump and Bibi to relent.
If it keeps going on for a few months with the strait closed it will start to really hurt. Hopefully we can get a handle on it before that point.

That's a good Petula Clark song.

It won’t take nearly that long - but it is going to take the ruthless application of military force to things that may look civilian, such as small fishing villages. It’s much like fighting Hamas, we have to destroy all places where they hide.
We don’t like to think about it, but in order to be successful, the death total among regime supporters needs to be very high. Fortunately I believe that Hegseth understands that.

I want a 6-figure job in a big tech hub with lots of perks. Why can't I find a job?
I see videos of people bemoaning the "terrible economy where there are no jobs" and they all live in big cities.
Go where the jobs are people. Folks used to know that.

You can major in it, if you choose the right courses.
Mouthy little squishes stand in the line, check the boxes, collect the slip of paper, then say "nobody taught me..."
You have to sign up for the class. You have to pay attention.
If you bought yourself a shitty education, you might blame your parents or yourself or a guidance counselor, but you have no call to "salt the ashes where it stood."

Most people lack the temperament to be an entrepreneur.
Everyone wants wealth and fame (but privacy also) and they want it NOW with no effort. But it's okay. They know their worth and they'll manifest it.

... [Candace] is savvy enough to use just a little bit of truth here and there to ground her manipulations.
For example, I did have quite a nice wardrobe at Daily Wire -- sports coats and suits, mostly. And I did have exactly one Gucci Jacket -- made famous in the Jeremy's Razors Commercial. I did not, however, have ‘a wardrobe closet filled with tailored Gucci suits.'
But the charge feels credible because some of the words weren't completely made up. It's a truth-adjacent claim. And if any claim sticks, every claim sticks in the game of character assassination.

I've been watching a lot Eastern Bloc/Soviet TV lately, just out of curiosity about it. Sub-substandard stuff. The animation is my favorite. As the Communist experiment got less and less viable, the animation grew weirder and weirder. And weirder. By the late 80s it was downright inscrutable.

Thursday Overnight Open Thread - March 5, 2026 [Doof]
Thomas Point Shoal Light Station in the Chesapeake Bay
Kewl Stuff! The aerial refueling aircraft used in Operation Epic Fury were created from a single $16 million Boeing prototype.
In the 1950s, Boeing made a $16 million bet. As Boeing manufactured newer, faster jet bombers for the Air Force, mid-air refueling aircraft lagged behind. The standard refueling aircraft at the time, the propeller-powered KC-97, flew much slower than the jet-powered bombers it was meant to refuel. To Boeing president William Allen, it seemed like only a matter of time before a jet tanker became necessary. The Air Force hadn't requested a jet-powered refueling aircraft, but Allen was sure that they'd buy it once they saw it fly. His $16 million bet eventually led to the creation of the 707 jetliner and the Air Force's KC-135 tanker. Development began in 1952. To keep the project under wraps and ensure they were the first to market, Boeing named the prototype the 367-80, nicknamed "Dash 80," to disguise it as a piston-powered aircraft from Boeing's 300 series.Really interesting backstory on this technology. Check it out! ----- Secrets of Animation Here’s How Animators Make Stop-Motion Masterpieces Like ‘Wallace & Gromit’ Come Alive
A new exhibition in London takes visitors behind the scenes of the beloved stop-motion franchise featuring Wallace and Gromit. The show marks 50 years since the founding of Aardman, the animation studio behind classics like The Curse of the Were-Rabbit and “The Wrong Trousers.” “Inside Aardman: Wallace & Gromit and Friends” is now on view at the Young V&A museum. Through set models, props, demonstrations and interactive exhibits, the show illustrates how Aardman producers brought to life characters like Wallace, Gromit, Shaun the Sheep and Morph for half a century. “Aardman is an incredibly complex and skilled operation,” Alex Newson, the museum’s chief curator, tells the Guardian’s Catherine Shoard. “It’s also slow. Each animator only produces around two seconds of footage a day. Yet it’s one of the most accessible creative processes; even a small child can grasp it.”Interesting article. Lengthy.

My family used to catch crabs in Annapolis, at the Naval Station across from the Naval Academy. At night.
We used aluminum poles with a chicken wire net to scoop them out of the water as they went past our lights. It did take skill, much more than a crab trap.

“No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression. Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Lebanon. Not in Afghanistan. And it will not happen in Iran either.
We are fed up with our rights, our bodies, and the violence women suffer being used as excuses to justify illegal bombings and imperialist aggression.
All year long they call us ‘woke’ and blame us for everything. But when they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for money, their colonial and imperialist wars — suddenly they use women’s rights as their justification.”

Key term is it's use of "illegal aggression".

Spain was an especially nasty group oppressing women in its colonialist period for a couple hundred years or so. Big into slavery and comfort women virtually world-wide.

“No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression. Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Lebanon. Not in Afghanistan. And it will not happen in Iran either.
We are fed up with our rights, our bodies, and the violence women suffer being used as excuses to justify illegal bombings and imperialist aggression.
All year long they call us ‘woke’ and blame us for everything. But when they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for money, their colonial and imperialist wars — suddenly they use women’s rights as their justification.”

IMNSHO, poor supervisory skills. She couldn't scale up from a South Dakota size staff where she knew almost everybody.to a DC where her immediate staff was as big as half the entire SD executive.
She never figured out how to handle a staff that fed her half-assed data which she used and wound up looking like an idiot. Of course, since it kept happening, maybe she was an idiot.
She's now an example of two of Trumps schticks: One) He hires pretty faces. Two) He'll fire his mistakes.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps announces a wave of missile launches on the commercial hub of Tel Aviv, according to Iran’s state news agency IRNA.
“Missiles headed toward Tel Aviv,” IRNA says, reporting an IRGC statement on “a combined missile and drone attack… targeting locations in the heart of Tel Aviv.”
Despite the IRGC statement, there are no immediate warnings from the Israel Defense Forces of an incoming missile attack.

Look up Pappas or Box Hill Pizzeria. Both make great crab cakes (almost as good as the ones I make at home) and both offer shipping. Not sure of the prices though.

Shopping all day, several stores. Last stop, going home. Nope. Turned the key and...nothing. Battery's not 2 years old. (other parking lot details)
Fellow yells at me You Want a Jump. OK, thanks.
He just happened to have a fresh battery in the bed of his truck. He disconnected my battery, connected his, OK, start the truck then disconnects his battery, the truck keeps running (new one to me) and connects my battery.
Get home, leave the truck running, off load the grub, situate truck appropriately for tomorrow's job and kill it. Turn the key and it fires up lickety split.
Tomorrow's fire up will be interesting 'cause I just don't know.

First thing was to call service But the phone was at home. There was a lady parked at the truck's nose so I asked her if she would make the call. Sure.
She was a patient person and knew how to push all the buttons on the phone because that Service didn't make it easy. When all was said and done I gave her a tip for her efforts, she blessed me and said good bye's.
Short minutes later the fellow with the battery is calling to me. Calling to me with a heavy islander accent. The business is done, thanks are said and I offer him a tip. He is offended. I have a good job, I make good money.
Oh, no, it's just saying thank you.
No, don't think about it.

Nope. Winsome was a "Fundamentally Non-Serious" selection. And she compounded the problem by asserting on national television in 2022 that Donald Trump was a relic of the Republican party and that the party should move on.
She was a Lt Governor at the time--that was the highest office she had ever held. She ran her mouth, and it cost her. HAD the Virginia Republican Party taken their job seriously, they would have found and supported a candidate that had an actual *functioning* personality and one that wasn't on record as anti-Trump. There was nothing "charismatic" about Sears--she coasted rather than campaigned.

His replacement ID card likely won't arrive until end of next week at the earliest. Not much can happen without *that*-- at least in terms of replacing his other important documents like SS/Medicare cards. Also, need it to cancel his vehicle insurance and get a new phone/migrate service from old one.
Fortunately, he was able to get a bank statement printed out, so now we know what cell carrier he has and what auto-deductions need to be cancelled. Not 100% sure, but appears to be no fraudulent transactions.
Meanwhile, I made an app't at "Aging & Disability Resource Center"-- next Tuesday. See what he can apply for/qualify for?
What am I supposed to do? Throw him out in the cold? He's 71 years old. Frail. Needs a cane. Deaf. Possibly in early dementia.

It’s not just because of the oil shortage although that’s part of it. Cuba’s power plants are obsolete oil burners from the early 70’s, and they haven’t had much maintenance for 30 years now. They’re held together with baling wire and duct tape, but they’re being run at 110% capacity which is why they break down repeatedly.
Long story short, without intervention by the US, Cuba is on the brink of one of the greatest waves of starvation so far this century.

Wow. You are very kind. I understand about the shelters. Is there anything anywhere for dependent deaf elderly housing (if there is such a thing)?
I had a cousin who died in his 60's. Paranoid schizophrenic since his 20's. When his parents died they left the house to him. Instead of getting better he got worse. In and out of rehabs when young after his psychotic break. On meds. Saw a shrink. Lost his car, etc. Totally dependent then on his mother's SS and his SSI. When she died it got worse.Alienated his brother, etc. He died of hypothermia after not paying his gas bills.
At his funeral his shrink (who knew my mother elsewhere) told her he'd tried to get him into a halfway house for years and he refused.
Maybe a halfway house? Only a social worker around there would know.If he can make meals. Medicaid.
This is a lot on you that you don't need.
Due to his deafness at birth, which is not a handicap others overcome (I know this from a friend's sister), his dementia makes it a handicap.
I am so sorry and will pray for you.

Most states offer 1915(c) HCBS waivers that allow Medicaid to pay for services in assisted living, memory care, or at home, provided the person needs a "nursing home level of care".
The National Council on Aging (NCOA)
The National Council on Aging (NCOA)
+1
Coverage: These waivers help pay for assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs)—such as bathing, dressing, and eating—medication management, and specialized dementia care services.
ME: Assisted living is typically out of pocket,not Medicaid vs a nursing home (Medicaid).
Deaf/Dementia Specialized Care: Some states, like Washington, offer specialized dementia care programs within assisted living facilities, which can be adapted to accommodate, or at least provide care for, individuals with hearing loss.
Limitation: These waivers are not entitlements; they have limited slots, and applicants may be placed on a waiting list.
Also HUD Section 11 housing.
Some states have Medicaid waiver teams. This totally needs to be managed by Dept of Health, Area Agency on Aging, or a social worker at this level.
Which state did he come from and do you want him to go back? Golly, what a mess to dump on you.

BIL has been *enabled* for 50 years, imo. Been taken in and taken care of. Then married for 30 years to a woman who took care of business for them both.
Everything went to hell after she died and BIL began circling the drain... I'm not going to bail him out & let him suck up like his "friends" who just let him couch-surf until they got tired and kicked him out or dumped him at hospitals.
No-- I'll help get him placed into a stable situation on his own dime, or subsidized, and then turn him loose. (At least he's no longer a danger on the road!)
And make clear that he IS NOT to consider this house as a landing pad ever again.
Hoping for some type of assisted living, so that he won't "need" to drive.

I still think this needs to be brought back to the hospital where he came from. Or, at the very least, have a social worker from there help you/direct you and should have contacts. Something.
No, he did not land there with a medical problem, for treatment. But it was still a form of dumping vs placement since they did not talk to you.
I am sure of this because of my case manager job in the ED in Florida. I doubt it is different in any other state. You have to, legally, discharge to a safe place from a hospital.
Not saying yours is not safe, but you can't care for him except temporarily.
This then becomes their problem.

BIL was last licensed in WA, so that's the state from which he'll get new ID card. ("General Delivery" in a nearby town, so that there's no establishment of residency at my mailing address!)
Tuesday we see a social agency & hope to get pointed in the right direction. BIL will not be staying in my house for *the duration* if he gets on a wait list.

Not saying yours is not safe, but you can't care for him except temporarily.

Assisted living places do have vans for transportation.
Assisted living facilities are paid out of pocket or with long-term health insurance. Medicare/Medicaid won't pay.
If he is low income or indignent he will qualify for Medicaid waivers for a nursing home or a place with similar disabilities.
That is the difference: payment. My MIL was in assisted living. Our parents (thankfully) had/have long-term health insurance that paid for sitters (for my parents, mother still living at home), or assisted living without touching their savings.
Most people in nursing homes are Medicaid and pay down. And/or the sale of their house after their death's profit goes back to Medicaid.
While a PITA, he should be marched into a public housing place/obtain a Medicaid waiver/ and have someone help you with this. Social workers (ok, good ones) help and have connections and lists.
Placement is a lot of work and waiting. You are on the right track, but I ask again...do you want him in your state? Or is their no choice since he has no one else? Take care of yourself.

I'm in Idaho. Close to the WA border. BIL is (technically) a WA resident. The hospital in question is somewhere in Phoenix AZ-- where BIL was couch surfing...
He will need to spend down some savings to get Medicaid I think. His savings account has mid 4-figures in it. He was a bit surprised to learn this, just today when we went to the bank.
Anyway-- he has *some* means, and he needs to GTF out of MY house. I will help him do it safely and permanently. If he refuses (because he doesn't want to pay)?
THEN I would kick his ass to the curb.

I had researched it a bit, and I’m not surprised at all, which is why I was always certain that a fast attack like everyone wanted at the time of the protests could have been disastrous.
Iran spent the last decade or two building and storing tens of thousands of missiles of various types; not an exaggeration, these numbers are widely accepted.
We’re lucky because of one major miscalculation where they were two clever by half - they built several deep bunkers inside mountains that they call “missile cities “ where they stored these in the thousands; but the USAF has mapped them, and although the granite over them is too thick ever for bunker busters, all of the entrances can be blown up, leaving them entombed forever.
That has been the purpose of many of the bomb___ missions the last few days.
It also points up how insane we were to know that they were building this huge offensive war machine for years.

That is BS. There is no way I or anyone I worked with would have done this without talking to someone and getting permission. Heck, you might not have been home, and the cops would have brought him back to the hospital.
Talk to the social worker, nurse or whoever did this in the ED, look for a signature and/or MD names...then the director of the ED (who will be a RN and mention EMTALA).
Social work has lists for where he could go.
If you get no where with the ED, talk to the manager of social work/case mgmt. If that goes nowhere, talk to the director of nursing about that ED's discharge. If that goes nowhere talk to the CEO and mention a lawyer.
DOCUMENT all dates and calls from the start.
I don't know how big this hospital is. In our med center we discharged patients and each floor had someone. I happened to be in the ED for 5yrs, after working all over the med center when people were on vacations.

We signed Rebecca up when she was 6 months old (she qualified for many programs independent of our income) - her name finally came up to the top if the list when she was 7. My understanding is that the wait now is around 10 years in Texas.
Also, you said that he has funds available to him - are they in his name? If so, he will not qualify for ANY waiver programs until he has less than a certain predetermined amount of assets in his name. Not sure if that includes vehicles or property, but before you start applying for help, make sure any funds in his name have been placed into a special needs trust.
Wish I didn't have to know all of this stuff....

Some of that stuff I cut and pasted above mentioned the state of WA. Start there if you want him in WA vs Idaho.
The hospital in Arizona will try to jack you around since you are not there. Follow that phone tree I gave you. Mention WA and maybe they will pull a rabbit out of a hat.
I see now what they did...but that's a long way to drive him to your place.
Was he ever in a hospital in Idaho and the cops drove him from there? The local hospital is where I'd start.
IF they put him on a bus for a 48hr drive to Idaho that is blatant dumping in my opinion. Big time.
Computer is running out of juice and I need to go to bed. Keep me posted. Praying and wishing you the best.

Ok. I thought he had an ID bracelet.
Ask the cops where he came from. Bus stop? Or was he briefly in a hospital in Idaho after the bus ride? I guessed he got off the bus, was acting wonky, and a cop brought him to the local ED near you.
Assume no paperwork with him. Ask what part of Phoenix. Probably he won't know, either.
This is worse than I thought without that answer. Let me think about this and I will be back here tomorrow night.
Who were the dimwit friends who he was couch surfing with? Does he at least know that and a phone number? Surely he does since he found them!!! Maybe they know the hospital? Call those jackasses.

If true, he can go into a nursing home as 'private pay, Medicaid pending' and have a social worker do his app.

This is all a dead end. BIL "doesn't remember" or won't say.
Evidently, HE bought the fking bus ticket himself. Saw the charge on his bank statement. He told me yesterday, that "the hospital paid for it". Possibly he is confused, because he f'd up somehow with his debit card at Phoenix bus terminal (bank told him/us this today) and it was "manually approved" but now his debit card is *flagged* and will continue to be declined until he/we call the number on card to straighten it out.
This BS just gets worse and worse. The sooner he is out, the better. But he AT LEAST needs photo ID in hand before he can do anything for himself. That should arrive within 2 weeks, possibly by the end of next week.
UGH!

He'd also jolly well better tell you his medical problem if he expects you to help him. This is why I think he's acting a bit. He's used this for decades.
Since he's deaf I'd write down that he tell you the friend's address/number/name or he's going on a one way bus trip back to WA or another friend.
He better not be full of shite about all this, as he sounds like he gets around pretty well. Some things are not adding up. After all this time he may know when, how and where to act demented?
IF he is telling the truth and he was discharged unsafely from a hospital in Phoneix, it is dumping. If his friends put him on a bus that is another story. The fact that he's wearing a bracelet is something, but otherwise a total mystery. He knows more than he's saying about location of the hospital.
My goodness I am sorry. I'd probably check myself into the ED to get away from him.

It's been noted that Mullin is IIRC 1/128th Cherokee? That means he's 127/128th not.
TW Shannon, who lost the 2024 primary against Oklahoma's senior Senator, James Lankford, had a Chickasaw father and an African-American mother. His personal "ethnic diversity" is certainly more notable than Mullin's. And he was a real Trumpian. Trumpster. Whatever. He's currently running for lieutenant governor of Oklahoma. Home he gets it. Seems like a good guy.

Ah. Well, that shoots my first idea to the ground of a local hospital.
I don't think he's so confused he won't know his last couch surfing friend's name/number. That would answer if he ever was in a hospital before you pull the big guns out. Talk to them.
I may be completely wrong about how demented he is, but he gets around pretty well since he made it to Arizona from WA and now is in Idaho.
We once had an ED patient from Tampa who was mental, but liked to go to different ED's. We were on the Atlantic side. She'd pretend to have seizures...the second she stepped off hospital property. She knew she had to be treated and loved it. Lived with her mother in Tampa & did this all over the state of FL. Made it to MN this way and an ED doc found and posted the newspaper article in the ED.
He's always had someone take care of him. It's really hard to tell how much of this is his total dependence on kindness or avoidance of being a tiny bit responsible. Gotta go nite nite.

I had been freehand climbing for a while at considerable height by that age but that simple experience just hopping around freaked me out for a long while. Your hand/body shoved in some cliffside's vertical nethers, slowing ascending is completely different than jumping around like an idiot.

If you approach it as the beginning of a controlled experiment, then it's a valid result. But it's only one valid result. You would need to repeat the experiment a good 20 or 30 times to be able to say with any statistical confidence "I can survive a 20 meter fall." Get with it, bro. And keep good lab notes.

Are annulments allowed after you've had kids (Like on the grounds that you married under false pretenses), or does that just render any offspring bastards?
Posted by: FeatherBlade at March 05, 2026 07:29 PM (a+4eV)
---
If anyone has a specific annulment question, I have been trained and know a bit: having kids has little to do with whether an annulment is warranted unless the ground is refusal to have children-- then its clearly relevant. Even if a nullity is granted, the status of the kids remains the same as before: not bastards.

Posted by: FeatherBlade
Yes, your marriage can be annulled even if you have children if one of the parties involved asserts and can provide evidence that the other party had not formed the requisite emotional maturity to understand their obligations under the sacrament of marriage. That is how the missus' first marriage was ended (her former partner initiated the proceedings).
I used much the same argument, but my former marriage did not involve children. Again, here, my ex-wife initiated the proceedings and I left no stone unturned in my written answers to questions about our situation.

But, you no longer bother to do the breathing bit (that video is 12 years old) - the chest compressions are deemed sufficient to move air in and out of the lungs.
I don't know if that's really good, but it's what the trainers will now tell you. (Unless they've changed it again, again.)

Levi Strauss Heir Dan Goldman Distances Himself From Pro-Israel Wife Who 'Liked' Social Media Post From 'God Bless Donald Trump'
One meme that caught Corinne Goldman's eye mocked the slogan 'Jews for Palestine' as 'chickens for KFC'
Rep. Dan Goldman (D., N.Y.) has a girl problem. The Levi Strauss heir, best known for serving as lead counsel in the first impeachment of Donald Trump, was forced to distance himself from his own wife to avoid alienating a core Democratic constituency: terrorist supporters. Goldman threw his wife, Corinne Levy Goldman, under the bus this week after left-wing activists in his Manhattan district circulated screenshots of social media posts she had "liked" in the aftermath of Hamas's Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist massacre. In a statement to the New York Times, the congressman insisted that his wife does "not speak for me." Like many married couples, he explained, they do not always share the same views--particularly when one of them is trying to survive a Democratic primary in a district where hostility toward Israel has become something of a litmus test. The controversy stems from nearly a dozen social media posts that Mrs. Goldman liked or shared in the weeks after the Hamas attack, which many Democratic voters embraced as a triumph of "anti-colonial resistance." The Goldman family was in Israel at the time. Among the posts Mrs. Goldman liked was a widely circulated meme from the popular account @EndWokeness mocking the slogan "Jews for Palestine" as "Chickens for KFC." She also liked posts suggesting that Western activists who chant "Free Palestine" might consider relocating to Gaza and living under Hamas rule. Another post came from the account "God Bless Donald Trump," which praised Hoover Institution fellow Victor Davis Hanson for arguing that the United States should revoke visas for visitors from places such as Iran and the Palestinian territories if Hamas executed American hostages. Left-wing activists quickly seized on the posts, circulating screenshots and bringing them up at town halls in an effort to weaken Goldman's credibility with pro-Hamas Democrats. The congressman faces a tough primary challenge from former New York City comptroller Brad Lander, an outspoken critic of Israel. Goldman's critics argue that his wife's social media activity was proof that he also hated Hamas, which would put him at odds with the anti-Western values of his constituents. The congressman's district includes portions of Manhattan and Brooklyn, where anti-Israel activism has flourished since the Gaza war began. Goldman told the Times that his wife's antagonism toward terrorists and their supporters did not reflect his own views. "Like most married couples, my wife and I do not always share the same views, and any tweets she has liked as a private citizen do not speak for me," he said. "As an elected official and public figure, my record, votes and public statements are the only reflection of my beliefs."

It's part of their training. The idea is create images of supposed brutality to win sympathy. The left actually thinks that Kent State turned public opinion against Nixon when it didn't. He won a landslide because Americans value law and order.
But they keep thinking that the image of some douche in a possibly stolen valor uniform* will sway the hearts of the masses.

The sen. describes this as “deescalation,” but full vid/reporting show he joined officers by physically grabbing the marines leg then his arm breaks. Reports say the protester was treated for an injury after. The marine did not come to start a confrontation, he protested.
He showed his ass and refused orders from the police.
The leftists are going to keep redefining the word 'protest' until it's synonymous with 'terrorism'.

Regarding the fake Marine in his polyester pants (no one will convince me he's a real Marine unless DEI hire): I think his elbow was dislocated with the crack I heard. I don't really care, but could volunteer to pop it back in without anesthesia. In the ED they do give you happy drugs to pop that or a shoulder back in. I watched it enough I think I could do it, no charge.
I loved the Capitol Police at the end of a video who says, weary, "Just turn loose." Eejit.
Which brings me to IF he is a Marine he needs, even after 20yrs (I could be making this up and don't care) to be in trouble for wearing his uniform when not on duty. I'd say Leavenworth would probably have a psych ward.

Under the old law of war that existed prior to WWII, outright assassination of a foreign head of state was condemned by all civilized powers.
He's not exactly getting ratioed for this, but the top comments disagree.
A good analogy (which others are making) is, Britain's Bastard-Brigade attempted to assassinate the Austrian painter. Nobody attempted to assassinate Emperor Hirohito. So, I'll try to explain this . . .
The Austrian painter was a dictator with dubious connection with Germany's tradition of rulership. Hirohito was the legitimate spiritual head of Japan, however he may or may not have behaved. You might be able to work with the Japanese people through him.
Maybe Khomeini qualified as a Hirohito. The Khamanei dynasty, which it now is, cannot. These guys did not rise up properly through the old Shi'a system. They are just politicians and thugs.
So, screw them.

They had at least two ships.
The one that was brand new with a female captain and it ran aground because they didn't think to turn the auto-pilot off when they tried to do a manual turn and hit a sandbar near Samoa.
The other ship had a female captain and it also sustained major damage when they ran it into a pier during an exercise.
I think they still have a few spares (ships and female captains).

It is pretty much a conclusion that Delcy Rodriguez betrayed Maduro, but it might have been her negotiating on his behalf behind his wife's and the security head's backs.
And now Venezuela is getting its political prisoners released, and market price for its oil and gold dore, and it is being banked at their need in Qatar instead of being stolen via US or ICJ judge, so it is looking like that was a good choice.

Inside the Magic: New Fake James Bond Movie Will "Embrace Queer Storytelling" By Featuring a "Non-Binary Actor"
For a change of pace, here's a nonsense story.
I think "Inside the Magic" is some kind of Disney fanzine. I don't know how credible they are. But as I read them, they seem less and less credible. I'm glad I gave up on Bond movies years ago so that I'm already halfway home when the suckers are still getting out of the stadium.This "news" article is off to a bad start. No, Bond 26 is not "tentatively titled James Bond 26." How stupid. Bond movies are routinely referred to unofficially as "Bond X" until the title is revealed, but in no way would anyone who understands the Bond franchise or the usual operations of the English language say that these movies are "tentatively titled" Bond X. Also, EON would never include the non-EON Never Say Never Again in its count of EON Bond films. This seems like it's written by someone who knows nothing. So, standard media story, then.
Production on the next James Bond film is underway. Tentatively titled James Bond 26 (27 if you include the non-Eon Never Say Never Again) falls under Amazon, which purchased Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and inherited the distribution rights to its films, including the 007 movies.
Amazon MGM Studios later acquired creative control of the future of the Bond franchise from longtime producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, who have been replaced by Amy Pascal (Spider-Man: Homecoming) and David Heyman (the Harry Potter films). Dune and Dune: Part Two director Denis Villeneuve is helming the new film, while Peaky Blinders' Steven Knight is on writing duties.To be honest, I think "treating it strictly as a rumor" would be giving it far more credit than it deserves. This seems like the most amateurish clickbait nonsense, and that's coming from someone who wants this to be true. I don't think this rises to the level of "rumor." This is just stupid nonsense.
A New Rumor About the Film But we do know that the next 007 will be male, despite rumors of a "gender-swap" doing the rounds following No Time to Die (2021), the final entry in Daniel Craig's series. Craig himself has even publicly opposed the idea. However, a new rumor suggests that the next "Bond girl" will be non-binary, with actor Emma Corrin in line to play the spy's love interest. NewswirePatriot on X (Twitter) claims that the new Bond film has "officially gone woke": WARNING: James Bond has officially gone woke! The new love interest in the Bond franchise will be "non-binary" actress Emma Corrin. The producers "wanted to prove even legacy franchises can embrace queer storytelling." Of course, this should be treated strictly as a rumor and nothing more.

The Brown Knight is called that because he is a dirty scrofulous squalid disgrace, not because he is of African (or Summer Islands) descent.

After phoning in his performance in Gladiator 2, this does not fill me with interest.
Plus, while Hannibal was from Africa, he was not black, he might have had some black Africa in his past but he would have been Carthaginian, which was Phoenician in origin.

This is key. We have seen generations come and go since the last earnest, open Western. Many genres have only been deconstructed hatefests toward the genre for so long, that's all anyone knows.
I get it, genres that are primarily white male and American are despised by the people who make movies and TV but how can you do a gritty revisionist version if gritty revisionist ones are the only versions anyone has seen?

He looks okay for it but he's really big and stands out massively which is not exactly a positive for a secret agent. Yeah, I get it, Bond has become just a superhero with very thin spy scraped over the top but I'd like to see that go away and move back to the Connery-era (and Dalton era) focus on spycraft and being a guy who can blend in better.

It might also have worked if the putrid school system taught anyone the lore that backed these old stories in the first place. Those days are long gone and parodies, or reverent recreations or cheeky subversions are all likely to fail because the entire story is increasingly alien and unknown to the audience.

Lovechild: The impossible story of the forbidden love between King Arthur, who was totally black, And Robin Hood, who was a Muslim trans-woman, which produced the line culminating in Kier Starmer.
Starring a cast of hundreds of twelve year old girls who'll be as close to nude as we can get away with.

To be fair, James Bond of the movies has never been a very good secret agent. Everybody knows who he is, he uses his real name most of the time, he draws attention to himself and his enemies always know that he's working against them. He regularly runs into problem with local law enforcement. A good secret agent will steal your secrets, sabotage your plans and you won't even know you were the target of an operation.

It's called The Trans Action.
Jason Momoa is a regular family guy but he drives a Lambo and he's secretly gay on the side and he's cheating on his wife and gaying out on Grindr.
He hooks up with some "hot young dude" but it turns out he's getting catfished by Liam Neeson. He's all "no way, old man, leave me alone," but Liam gets obsessed with him, and goes all Fatal Attraction on him, and he drives a Porsche 911 GTS and he's also a retired CIA agent.
Jason gets tired of Liam threatening his suburban white-picket-fence charade of a lifestyle, so he runs his Porsche off the Brooklyn Bridge in an adrenaline-pumping Michael Bay style chase scene. He thinks Liam's dead now but he's totally not...

He looks okay for it but he's really big and stands out massively which is not exactly a positive for a secret agent. Yeah, I get it, Bond has become just a superhero with very thin spy scraped over the top but I'd like to see that go away and move back to the Connery-era (and Dalton era) focus on spycraft and being a guy who can blend in better.

Bond was an assassin counterspy really, he was the British version of Smersh.
True spies are so boring that you never look at them twice. See Rudolf Abel for example. Dulles or Colby are others.
CRT, want a decent spy series done well on a tiny budget, look up Sandbaggers series set in the late 70's. 1st and 2nd series are the best.

But it's just a 90 min long buddy comedy between the jester and the swineherd. They're the best part of the book, you have to admit. The whole story just those two guys from beginning to end. The rest are all there, Ivanhoe, Isaac, hot chicks Rowena and Rebecca, Cedric, the french a-holes, all playing their parts. But Gurth and Wamba are at the forefront. It's all centered on them being goofballs while everything happens. Tell me that wouldn't be awesome.

That's a lot of work for somebody who's never seen a Bond film. I wouldn't be surprised if Amazon hired them to write the 007 script just on that basis alone. It seems to be all the rage for Hollywood to hire writers that have no clue about the IP they're writing for.

I never watched the show, I read a couple of the books and gave up. They started out as interesting police procedurals then about 75% of the way through turn into a stupid 80s action show with Bosch mowing through assassins and ninjas and hit men and special forces guys armed only with his revolver.
Maybe by chance I picked up the three dumbest books but I gave up on the series.

To be fair, James Bond of the movies has never been a very good secret agent.
Yeah. I keep having this doubtful memory of a line from one of the Bond villains "James Bond, famous secret agent". I'm pretty sure no one ever says it, but it's floating around my head.
There's a thing in Casino Royale that plays on this. When Bond arrives at the casino with Vesper, he intros himself as Bond, but tells the desk clerk that the reservation is under the name Beach. Which pisses off Vesper that Bond is so reckless with his name.

Williamson and Mirren were romantic partners years before the film, and by Mirren's account it ended very, very badly. So much so she almost turned down her role. But she later said taking it was the best decision of her life because they talked it out and became close friends by the end of filming.

As soon as the new blu-ray disc player I ordered arrives I'll be watching Excalibur again. I've been reading tech news that suggests blu-ray drives and disc players might be on their way out, mostly due to Sony not being interested in designing new hardware for that media format. Way more money to be made is renting streams. I hope that isn't the case, but I want to upgrade to a higher end player that can play all the formats I own media in.

It stars DDL as the head trucker who's an old hand who's partner is a midget, he also has a thing for Karoke and underground dance competitions
There are all kinds of whacky interesting characters.

Trump: Tucker's Out of MAGA
Good.
Maybe the Quisling JD Vance will finally find his manhood as well.Jonathan KarlTucker has been having a genuine mental breakdown to find out he's actually not very influential and that he can't help his Islamist paymasters blow up Tel Aviv. He started by claiming the Jewish Charity Chabad is actually brainwashing Trump into doing Israel's bidding. This is particularly dangerous because, as a charity, Chabbad is public-facing, meaning it has lots of offices terrorists can bomb. And terrorists already attack Chabad houses and set fire to them. This isn't Israel, a country with a very serious security apparatus. This is charity with offices right on the street and, at most, a single 70 year old volunteer "security guard" at the door. And Tucker just told all of his Islamist and Nazi viewers to attack Chabad.
@jonkarl In a lengthy conversation just now, President Trump hit back at Tucker Carlson who called the Iran war "absolutely disgusting and evil." "Tucker has lost his way," Trump told me. "I knew that a long time ago, and he's not MAGA. MAGA is saving our country. MAGA is making our country great again. MAGA is America first, and Tucker is none of those things. And Tucker is really not smart enough to understand that."
🚨 EXCLUSIVE — Tucker Carlson claims that a sect of Judaism called Chabad is ultimately behind the military strikes on Iran.
— Joel Mowbray (@joelmowbray) March 5, 2026
This might be Tucker's most absurd claim to date.
And it's yet another shot at Trump.

Joel RichardsonFrom UFOs to chemtrails to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. He is both mentally unstable and evil. I'd sooner believe Bullshit or Not! Meanwhile... The Fake MAGA Grifters are abandoning the only thing that keeps a roof over their heads.
@Joel7Richardson I'm just trying to keep the Candace/Tucker storyline straight here. Israel can't have any prophetic significance because it's a secular, godless state and the people there aren't even real Jews anyway -- they're Turkic Khazar impostors. But at the same time Israel is masterminding a global religious war so they can rebuild the Third Jewish Temple. So the working theory is that a nation of secular atheist Turks are masterminding the restoration of the ancient Jewish priesthood and Temple system, which requires verified Jewish lineage to function. These sneaky Turks!

Karol Markowitz made a good point: Tucker shows off his White House access in order to get big $1 million paychecks to appear on panels. This is Hunter-Biden-esque influence peddling. Did Tucker learn this from Hunter when they were, as Tucker admits, friends and fellow addicts? And now that Trump has declared Tucker persona non grata, his Grifter Speech Fee is going to take a hit.
Karol Markowicz
@karol People focus on Tucker's son but we can't help when we have, ahem, insane parents. The real issue is that Tucker sells his access to the White House. No one is paying a podcaster close to a million dollars a speech on some real estate panel unless they think he has a real in.
This couldn't come at a worse time: Israel just wiped out half of Tucker's "audience."
Karol Markowicz
@karol This whole idea that Vance isn't tied to Tucker is betrayed by the fact that Tucker is frequently in the White House and uses that influence to book himself speaking tours of the Middle East. The adopted Hunter attaches himself to Vance and everyone knows it.
The Israel Defense Forces on Wednesday said it bombed a compound in Tehran housing Iran's cyber warfare headquarters -- but it's unclear whether the strike will significantly kneecap Iran's cyberattack capabilities. According to a statement from the IDF, its forces on Wednesday carried out a "wide-scale strike" targeting a collection of military sites on the Eastern edge of Tehran that allegedly housed the headquarters of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps. The IDF claims that the headquarters of the IRGC's "cyber and electronic headquarters" and its "Intelligence Directorate" were among the military outposts hit in the strike. It's unclear to what extent these military sites were damaged or whether there were any casualties. Iran remains under an almost total internet blackout, which began on Feb. 28 when the first U.S. and Israeli strikes began, limiting the flow of information coming out of Iran.Just like Jake Tapper starts talking about The Troops whenever he's in trouble, Tucker's going to start quoting that Bible that he just read for the first time at the start of his podcast career two years ago. I'm not saying anything bad about the Bible just like I mean no disrespect to the troops. But this is how these manipulative psychopathic narcissists operate, at least until enough people call them on these cynical tactics. I know some people don't like when other people's Christianity is questioned, but surely you must know that there is a big "trad" movement in which people who are banging each other's fiances, getting abortions, and engaging in gay sex with younger people are all pretending to be true-believing traditional Christians, right?
Based on search results from February and March 2026, Sarah Stock (also referred to as Sarah Setka) and conservative media figure Elijah Schaffer were involved in a scandal surrounding a 6-month affairMilo claims Schaffer frequently hit on younger men for sex, too. I know it's ugly, but noticing isn't ugly. The thing being noticed is ugly. There are a lot of disgraceful and frankly demonic people who are posing as the most pious, sugar-won't-melt-in-our-mouths Austere Religious Scholars now. Jesus is just a Branding Opportunity to these Pharisees. They're doing collabs with the Holy Spirit, inviting God into their streams. There is no doubt that Christianity is having a real moment of Born-Again Cool. I know that's a frivolous way to say it, but it's true, Christianity is having a moment of cultural coolness. That's good, except it also attracts the kind of superficial and sleazy people who join things just because they're cool, whether it's pretending to like Marvel superheroes or pretending to believe in Jesus. I know Christianity is having a "coolness" moment because for a couple of years I've felt that superficial attraction of coolness myself. I almost got a "combat rosary" because I thought it was cool. I put that stuff on hold because I realized, Gee, this isn't a very good reason to become a Christian, I think Jesus would almost be mad at me for this superficial nonsense. Anyway, we are seeing a lot of people who have always broadcast their complete adherence to secularism -- like Megyn Kelly -- suddenly deciding that maybe it's cool to be Catholic (or whichever demomination). Some of these people who superficially embrace religion for the wrong reasons, but may well wind up becoming actually religious even though it all began as a stunt. And some of them will just use religion as a cover while they f*** other men's fiances and try to f*** every young man in their vicinity. I don't know who is who, but it is perfectly reasonable to be suspicious of so many people, who seem like absolute scumbags, suddenly "Finding Jesus" at a time when Jesus is trending online and can deliver you clicks. I can't say for sure who the False Prophets are, but it's more than justified to be a little skeptical when a seemingly lifelong atheist Northeastern Establishment Liberal Nepo-Baby like Tucker Carlson reads, at age 55, the Bible for the first time on the eve of launching his podcast. I can't say for sure he did this out of mercenary reasons. And sometimes one's own mercenary motives are hidden from we ourselves, as we convince ourselves that we're doing the right thing by doing right for our careers. But I think I am justified in being skeptical of all these sudden Podcast Converts.
. The Affair Allegations: In early 2026, leaks from Milo Yiannopoulos alleged that Stock, a "tradwife" influencer who previously appeared on the Whatever podcast, had an affair with her boss, Elijah Schaffer, while she was married.
Controversy and Fallout: The affair led to significant online backlash, with critics highlighting the hypocrisy regarding their public, traditional Christian values. Reports indicated that Stock admitted to the affair, which reportedly resulted in a pregnancy and abortion.
Schaffer's Response: Elijah Schaffer, known for his work on "Slightly Offensive" and as a MAGA/conservative influencer, faced intense scrutiny following the leak of the affair.
Subsequent Actions: Reports suggested that Sarah Stock decided to step away from politics following the scandal.

As I recall, Tucker's claimed religion is one of the old-line protestants, so I've always been wary of his pronouncements because none of those denominations have anything to do with the Bible now. (Or for the past multiple decades.)

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at March 05, 2026 04:51 PM (PYyV9)
Since a prison reform movement began in the mid 1800's, the momentum has been rehabilitation over just deserts (punishment), deterrance (letting criminals in and out of jail on no bail, etc., and incapacitation (prison or death).
And it is based on the intrinsically flawed idea of people as good that somehow from societal factors do bad things to others. It specifically rejects the bibilical and long time ideas of society that people are sinners and if left free from any hindrance to do what they will, they can and will do some awful things.
This is the mindset that figures a guy with 80 arrests, multiple convictions for violent crime, etc. is at heart a good boy that simply cannot help themselves to committing another crime. And that should not cause them to be sitting in jail without bail, and eligibility to be released under by judges.

Even the Apostle Paul by the end of his ministry said there were only a few standing with him, on the true teachings.

exactly, that's why Candace has the #2 podcast, Tucker the #5, and Nick Fuentes has a huge following.
Do you ever get tired of repeating the same false things? Your "ignore them" advice doesn't hurt them, it empowers them, because you are essentially demanding that these people, and these people alone, can have no criticism directed against them.

Pretty good evidence that was a Byzantine Church as the architecture and design fits that. Muzzies repurposed it like St. Sophia in Constantinople.
The functioning Mosque is Al Aqsa which is on the Temple Mount but not historical to the area unless you believe Mo was ridden hard and put up wet after being ridden there by spirits.

By reduction, though, I don't buy that these are new, honest worldviews popping up. There has been consistently for the last several hundred years secularist, phoney science based and anti moral parties that have been undermining the world from the inside. Radical Muslims themselves is more of a creation of theirs than a natural rising, which in the rest of history tended to be tied physically to an Islamic state or empire.

Fuentes was on Tucker a week ago? I thought it was a while ago.
Anyway, Vance has better things to do than police this crap. By just breezing past it, he deprives it of oxygen. These people need the hate clicks. If they aren't driving conversation they evacuate.. You probably are the biggest traffic driver for David French and Jonah Goldberg at this point.
Just talk about other things and without the hate clicks, they die. I mean, mocking them is fine, but do so in an off-hand dismissive sort of way. Fame whores need fame. Insults are a form of fame.

But this is how these manipulative psychopathic narcissists operate, at least until enough people call them on these cynical tactics.
I know some people don't like when other people's Christianity is questioned, but surely you must know that there is a big "trad" movement in which people who are banging each other's fiances, getting abortions, and engaging in gay sex with younger people are all pretending to be true-believing traditional Christians, right?

If you think I'm defending them, I'm not. They are having their bright shining moment of fame, in part because of the outrage, and as long as that is sustained, they will thrive. No amount of insults or condemnation will cause them to lose audience. They're popular BECAUSE they get denounced.
But it gets old, and without outrage, they will fade down the stretch. It's not a satisfying strategy, but it's what works. If no one cites what they have to say, if they disappear from high-traffic discussions, who cares what they say? And if they need to be brought up, a dismissive aside is the way to do it while you talk about someone else.
"Fuentes? Is he still alive?" is the worst thing you can say about him.

In fact, I hate to go all super-Christian here but Jesus gave a method for dealing with a friend who strays in Matthew chapter 18 where you make an attempt to work it out:
Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

Once the '28 campaign starts spinning up we'll see who is trying to cobble together a whackjob coalition to try and grab the mantle of MAGA.

I see it as the opposite. The religious were among the most skeptical of him in 2016, and that' why he had to take in Pence to mollify them. But he was the most strident of supporter of Pro-Life groups in his first term when it gained him little, and even got Roe toppled.

I've read otherwise, that the core inscription is actually a form of Christian heresy that was subsequently "reinterpreted" to be Islamic. There is no contemporary historical proof Mohammed ever existed. After after the "Muslim" conquest, mints continued to produce coins with Christian symbols on them.

But if you actually watch the full episode, he is using those questions, like a lawyer in a case would, to craft a bunch of nuggets so that the watcher puts them together all by themselves. Makes it much harder to dissuade them by new information as that would make the watcher a fool.
There is a reason why both sides get a lick in on a criminal or civil case, you cannot expect the whole truth from a witness and their directing attorney. It will only bring out facts for that side, not additional unpleasant facts undermining their case. That is why we have cross examination.

Roger Stone says he's about to reveal all of Bannon's dealings with Epstein and the Chinese. No idea if that's true or bs.

I recently learned that Bannon took charge of the Earth Ship Project in the 80's. Drove it into the ground with poor management and came away flush. The Earth Ship Project.

Roger Stone is as bent as a crooked tree but he hates Bannon enough to have the receipts. I read enough of the copious emails between Bannon and Epstein and Michael Wolff to know he wasn't a sekret undercover agent trying to scope out Epstein but rather someone that wanted to depose Trump and put his own peeps in so he could be head of Maga. Notice the radio silence on the right influencer brigade about those nearly 2000 messages, texts, etc. between in the Epstein files with Bannon, often direct exchanges. More than Reid Hoffman in fact.

I'd like to see this twitter.
From what I read, the Dome was erected by 'Abd al-Malik over the 680s to rival the Kaaba which was being erected by the Zubayr family. The Umayyads generally were focused on Damascus and Jerusalem.
Al-Aqsa, the mosque in the Dome's area, is different from the Dome, the Dome being a shrine (for the Temple) and not a mosque. Likewise the Kaaba is not a mosque; it is the focus of prayers in mosques, toward the Kaaba.

1. The only group which votes Republican is white Christian people. Every other group: blacks, Latinos, Asians, Jews, Muslims are all Democratic voters by at least 60/40.
2. The white birthrate is politically skewed. Rs are at 2.1, with an 80% rate of passing on their beliefs. Ds are at 1.5 with a 90% chance of passing on their beliefs.
Closing the border, ending birthright citizenship, and taking back the school system extinguishes the Democratic Party. If the Dems win in 2028 they will open the border and amnesty all the illegals and end the Republican Party as a national party.
Every policy decision that is made right now can only be judged by this question: does this increase the likelihood of the Democrats winning the Presidency in 2028? If it does, it's a bad policy.

Yeah, the term itself is self-contradictory nonsense and I hated it, since it appeared to have been invented by financially/religiously conservative Worldies to try to marginalize the nationalist Right, and re-establish the old Uniparty kayfabe of open-borders corporatism vs. open-borders communism.
"What do you mean you don't want a honey shit sandwich? What, do you prefer the Wokies' jalepeno shit sandwiches or something?! You must be Woke Right."
But since "Woke Right" means nothing it can be used to mean anything, and I heartily approve of applying it to the Wobbly Grifters. Thus the term may be redeemed and serve a noble and useful purpose.

There's no point to making deals with Muslims. They will only honor an agreement for a maximum of ten years (a hudna). Even IF they honor the terms of the agreement, it's only so they can rebuild their warfighting capabilities.
They are also notorious for breaking the terms of an agreement FIRST and blaming it on the other party.

Tucker surprises me because it seems tactically so extreme.

Even if you are making bank with Muslim money, you'd think you'd not careen about so violently and shake off a lot of potential supporters.

I said "addict" referring, for legal purposes, to his admitted alcoholism. Whether or not he got addicted to coke, I couldn't say. I would say that someone working in media who is already an alcoholic would probably have a 100% chance of routine cocaine use, but I certainly could not say that wit certainty about any specific self-admitted alcoholic.

St. Iraeneaus, believed as you do. To tired to dig out my copy.
From Brave AI summary,
"Irenaeus viewed the Antichrist as a future, personal figure—distinct from the broader "spirit of antichrist"—who would emerge at the end of history to fulfill biblical prophecies. He identified the Antichrist with the "man of lawlessness" (2 Thessalonians 2:3), the "beast" of Revelation 13, and the "little horn" of Daniel, interpreting these as referring to a single individual who would rise from the ten kings of the revived Roman Empire, deceive many, and desecrate a rebuilt Jewish temple in Jerusalem.

There were quite a few successes in Talk Radio at a lower level than Rush. The left failed utterly because the medium requires that you listen to your audience and debate with them to keep things going. And if you are insincere the audience goes quickly.

How about you read? The school system is done and needs competition. That's not retreat. That is confrontation. When you take your kids out of the public schools because you parents can and will do a better job, that's confrontation. And, oh by the way, the more kids taken out of public school, the more the leviathan is starved. Public schools get money based on attendance.

Yeah, I've had some reservations since:
Back in the day, JD publicly referred to Trump as a "morally reprehensible"; he went further, stating he went "back and forth between thinking Trump is a cynical a–hole like Nixon" or that he's "America's Hitler." Vance also described Trump's MAGA movement as "cultural heroin" and warned Christians not to excuse his behavior after the release of the "Access Hollywood" tape.
That's some seriously weak sauce ...

Its just slavery to the old trope of Republicans being stupid and Jews being the evil masterminds behind it all.

Vice President JD Vance has weighed in on the Tucker Carlson-Mike Huckabee interview that has ignited widespread antisemitism allegations as well as a diplomatic row with Arab states, calling it "a really good conversation that's going to be necessary for the right."
Posted by: ace at March 05, 2026 04:53 PM (1wjle)
The interview I might add, where Cucker explained that it very necessary to Genetically Test Jews who's been there for thousands of years, and who had their own country for thousands of years, before some place Lutecia or Rome. To see if they belong in the Holy Land. Did not mention anything about arab dumpster dwellers who don't even have a letter "P" in their fucking alphabet.

Alt right, woke, woke right - mind games used against the Right because it's disturbing. It's becomes a source of much press and debate.
Does the left care about progressive, socialist, lefty, etc? If they do, it's not much publicized. Nor are it's plethora of disagreements, policies and personalities.
But for at least the last 2 years, many articles about the Right fragmenting, coming undone.
'Wokeism Died… And Gave Rise to the Alt Right'
'How the Woke Right Replaced the Woke Left'
'The hypocrisy of Trump’s language wars'
Facebook, Jordan B. Peterson's Post, May 8, 2025, 'The Start of Woke Right
Manhattan Institute, The Evil Idea That Has Taken Over the Woke Right'
Deplorables. Remember that term? The term stuck and, yes, it affected local politics in Pennsylvania and surely other states.

Totally agree on everything except calling my VP Vance a quisling. I am not sure where that came from and it might be from the copy/paste. I love him.
If Tucker did not bother to read the Bible til age 55yrs, then I am not sure what to think of him and his religion tirades except this adds to his crazy. As many mentals can even say they are Jesus himself. Sort of a frequent thing we'd see in the ED. I don't know about psych units, as I've tried to avoid them at all costs since nursing school as I hate psych. My bf/husband worked in one of those giant city mental hospitals in Long Island before he moved West, and some patients thought HE was Jesus (he had a beard).
For many reasons I am converting to Roman Catholic in two weeks. This will come as a shock to many who know me, and I am trying not to shock my 95yr old mother into a bad a-fib, but I won't lie to her.
I was not even aware that religion was cool, as I have been cool as long as I can remember God has been in my life. I wanted a deeper faith and was led to this by my son and grands and, above all, I believe the Holy Spirit. My belief, shoot me, don't care!

I'm on the elevator to go.up to my room, and in stumbles this older guy, (his convention badge says something like President, Podunk Co-op Telephone) and a young lady at least 25 years younger wearing a miniskirt and 4" heels. Elevator rises, stops on a floor below mine, they stumble out. As the doors are closing, I hear, "Sweetheart, I don't know if I can afford this," and the answer, "Don't worry about it, Honey, it's been taken care of."

The "Moderate Democrat" Governess of Virginia Is Responsible for the Murder of Stephanie Minter and People Are Noticing
Greg Price
@greg_price11 The murder of Stephanie Minter in Fairfax has turned into an unbelievably massive scandal. A newly released email shows that the Fairfax Police Department warned Commonwealth Attorney Steve Descano's office this past November about releasing illegal alien repeat offender Adbul Jalloh back into the community. They said "it's not a question of if, but when he will maliciously wound (or worse) again." And they were right. He murdered Stephanie Minter at a bus stop last week. Steve Descano and Abigail Spanberger have blood on their hands.

VA's problem is the state GOP--they don't act like there's an election every damn year here, and they spend more time arguing with each other over who's the very best right kind of conservative than actually getting anything done.

You know, maybe they *do* want that. New lynchings can be spun as racist, based on the demographic most likely to commit crimes, and that might help bring said demographic back to the plantation for protection even though they aren't getting the payouts they were accustomed to.

The litmus test is whether or not the VA citizenry is onboard with the governor's agenda or not. Will she face the same sort of scrutiny a Republican governor would get?
Will the media even report on the situation fairly?
Whether the election was rigged or not is a moot point, as it whether the majority of Virginians voted for her. The real point is whether the public will force a change or it it will be rebuffed.

It’s almost like ICE should be focusing their efforts on people like him instead of grade school kids, construction workers at their legal immigration hearings, and folks documenting their human rights abuses…
Exactly! This fits the mold of what Trump campaigned on doing which was going after illegals who have criminal backgrounds. So Im not sure what ICE is even doing or are they too busy going after legal immigrants and children in order fit quotas idk
Being arrested is not the same as being convicted. You're skipping the entire due process part of it. They didn't have evidence to convict on most of that man's prior charges. Maybe ICE should focus on the violent offenders versus purely civil.
ICE needs to stop arresting five-year-old boys in Spiderman backpacks and grandpas in Crocs. Wasn't Trump supposed to prioritize the worst of the worst? Why didn't they get this guy (even if he was released)?
Donald Trump murdered 6+ service members in an illegal war. Deport him.

However, if I'm right and we want to continue to live in a civilized society against the increasing threat of senseless violence, then the only sensible thing to do is to remove the criminal element (note, the criminal element, I did not say all members of the race) via Eugenics. If these individuals who repeatedly commit crimes against not only whites but I assume against all races cannot be incarcerated, the next best option would only be to prevent them from being born in the first place or to prevent them from reproducing and polluting the gene pool with badly formed offspring.
Because these criminals will breed and steal and consume tax revenues.

TEXAS SENATE RACE: Reportedly, President Trump’s endorsement of John Cornyn had already been drafted by his team yesterday. However, after a Truth Social post about the endorsement appeared prematurely, a mistake now confirmed by three sources, and influential conservatives voiced strong pushback, the president began seeking input from conservative leaders in Texas. Trump was particularly surprised by how much money had been diverted from GOP Senate races across the country to support Cornyn’s campaign. He was also struck by the campaign’s cost per vote: Cornyn reportedly spent about $116 per vote, money that could have been used to flip Democrat seats, while Paxton spent just $5.67 per vote. Trump was also irritated that key conservative figures had not contacted him directly and asked why they had not simply called him directly."

Well, as in all things you get more of what you reward. So if you give illegals and Dem racial groups free passes for targeting white people that's what they are going to do.

It is beyond any rationality, how you can allow a person with so many prior (violent) arrests to even walk the streets after the first several, let alone 131. What are they thinking? Is this in any way, shape, or form safe for society? What do they expect to happen?

No, they just feel degraded and violated and become even more manipulated because they cannot admit there is a problem.
Abuse victims go from one abusive relationship to the next, because they can't admit the last one was a problem and they can't accept that the choice was on them.
further abuse just crams them deeper into that mindset.

Pretti interfered with an arrest while armed, and was shot when the gun went off accidentally. While he should have been arrested, the shooting was unfortunate - but if you are going to assault a cop and you decide to carry a gun the fault is on you.
Compare that to the people the left say deserve it. Kirk was talking. That's it. Boyd and Babbitt were protesting and you can argue should have been arrested for trespassing. But shooting the won and beating the other to death? Should we do that to every leftist to ever protest near a government building?
And then Fincum. He had a holstered pistol. He was also out in the woods and no threat to anyone. And was shot in the back by an agent with a rifle. And that...THAT...is justified?

Yep. Administrative Practices Act was never meant for immigration law outside of rules adopted and Congress already stomped on its application by district courts by stripping them of jurisdiction in INA cases. Course, I see now and again some judges wailing in dissent about the AEDPA's constitutionality which is well established by caselaw that restricted filing multiple federal habeas cases on and on to try to overturn state convictions. You get one shot after the state does its appellate and habeas process, you don't get to raise new claims either (exception of death penalty cases).

If you read 18 USC 1324 about aiding and abetting... it is clear that even a POLITICAL action supporting illegals can be a FELONY if one of those illegals kills someone.
Add in 18 USC 242, taking a civil right under cover of law?
Add in Conspiracy? 18 USC 371.
Then 18 USC 1810, Obstruction of an Investigation... which they are clearly doing by not following detainer orders.

No animus. I said I want to know how she voted, as a precondition to being outraged at the outrage of the day.
What I am saying is essentially a less mean-spirited version of the Darwin Awards everyone laughs at. If she was a sensible, normal person living a sensible, normal life, I'll feel bad for her. But if she voted for this, well, I'm sorry mostly that she voted that way.
And I'm sorry it has to be this way. But we're not having normal political disagreements anymore. The "end whiteness, bring all the swarthy criminals here" crowd isn't engaged in anything but the politics of extermination. I'd like it to stop before we've reached British levels of diabolism.

"The Only Freedom The Left Believes In Is Freedom From Responsibility."
Posted by: ShainS
======
Reason why I believe like the Founders in ordered liberty, not freedom per se. When you see matters as the Founders did, a lot of apparent contradictions between freedom and order go away. Basically your liberty goes as far as it is not a threat nor crime against your neighbors and societal public order which is not equal to the non aggression principle.
So you don't have the liberty to run shrieking into traffic and block roads, you don't have the liberty to shoot up, defecate, nor buy drugs on the street, etc. etc .

Technically, no. Women do vote more stupidly than men b/c women vote way more often and for all races and elections.
Men stupidly FAIL to vote at all most times, which is the stupidest decision possible, but allows them a "not my problem, I didn't cause it" fallback.
So, yes, both sides are to blame - one more proactively and one more lazily...

Communist regimes can never be "done". Both because they are supposed to dissolve the dictatorship of the proletariat then and also, because forcing people to keep swearing to new things allows you to keep destroying anyone not 100% loyal to the movement.

Since a prison reform movement began in the mid 1800's, the momentum has been rehabilitation over just deserts (punishment), deterrance (letting criminals in and out of jail on no bail, etc., and incapacitation (prison or death).
And it is based on the intrinsically flawed idea of people as good that somehow from societal factors do bad things to others. It specifically rejects the bibilical and long time ideas of society that people are sinners and if left free from any hindrance to do what they will, they can and will do some awful things.
This is the mindset that figures a guy with 80 arrests, multiple convictions for violent crime, etc. is at heart a good boy that simply cannot help themselves to committing another crime. And that should not cause them to be sitting in jail without bail, and eligibility to be released under by judges.

I suspect women have more impetus to lie to the exit pollers about for whom they voted, in order to still get along with the women in their circles. Men, not so much. I am always skeptical of these polls that supposedly tell everyone who voted for whom. We still have the secret ballot for a reason.

It sort of parallels all the other decline, but I have noticed that even basic news reporting now is getting worse and worse. Not the omission, curation, distortion, fabrication - even in cases where those things aren't at play, it's clear reporters and editors are just too dumb or ignorant to even know what info is critical.
It's like the old George Carlin line about partial sports scores: "Yankees 5".

You are factually incorrect. Women are, on the whole, a reliable liberal voting bloc. This has been studied over and over. Just because you don't like that fact doesn't make it a fallacy, or make ascribable to the misogyny boogieman. Your "reasoning," such as it is in this case, is highly emotional and more in keeping with leftist thought.

I was reading The Gulag Archipelago recently. Solzhenitsyn had a chapter on the elevated position of common criminals in the Soviet state. Their burglaries and robberies helped weaken and control the population. They were actually protected by the state to some extent. I'm thinking this widespread tendency of Democrats to view this class of human scum as a tool and a resource is not new.
