Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Quick HitsNoted True Conservative David French says that the public's revulsion over fraud will cause them to vote for the Democrat Party he supports, despite being so Conservatively Conservative. Once you start looking for blue state fraud, you can't stop finding it. It's everywhere. Pretty famously, HHS shut down 800 hospices and home health agencies in Los Angeles that were suspected of fraud, including billing Medicare but having no patients. Name something more obvious about blue states in 2026: Fraud is everywhere, and everyone knows it. So here's how David French guesses the upcoming elections will end, writing his groveling cuckold newsletter in The New York Times yesterday: "Imagine that it's January 2027 and Democrats hold both chambers of Congress. They've been elected in a wave of public outrage over inflation, the war in Iran, and -- crucially -- public corruption. In fact, a Fox News poll taken shortly before the election showed that 'corruption in government' was the top concern of voters, even greater than inflation." Yes, voters outraged by corruption will punish the Republicans who are causing it, and turn instead to the brave Democrats who stand so passionately committed to eradicating it. Kurt Schlichter decides he wants in on David French's grift. Kurt SchlichterAs you know, I'm a lifelong liberal Democrat myself. I've voted for Kamala Harris six times, three times in the 2024 election alone. But now I am scandalized by the Democrat Party and will do something I have never before done: vote for a Republican. I'm sure that most of you are also Lifelong Liberal Democrats who are feeling the same way. Some Biblical scholarship: Aelfred The GreatNY Governess Kathy Hochul: Jews are sympathetic when they are being blown up and raped by Muslim terrorists, but the moment they fight back, they lose the sympathy of the left. Gov. Kathy Hochul insisted Tuesday that her job governing New York would be "a lot easier" if Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lost the high-stakes election in the Jewish state. The Democratic governor, who is also facing a challenge this year, said in an interview with Politico Magazine that Netanyahu's "overreach" in response to the horrific Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack has created issues here in New York. "I went to Israel right after Oct. 7. I saw a lot of pain there. But I actually cautioned the government there, in private conversations, not to overreach," Hochul said."Overreach" = fight the implacable terrorist army that has been trying to exterminate you for generations So suck it up, Buttercups! This poll seems like fake news to me, but... A McLaughlin poll claims that Jewish voters have shifted decisively. Republicans lead Democrats by 31 points among Jewish voters on the congressional ballot, according to a McLaughlin & Associates poll that points to a potential shift among a group that has long favored Democrats. The poll found that 64 percent of Jewish voters backed Republicans for Congress, while 33 percent supported Democrats, pollsters John and Jim McLaughlin wrote in an article published by the firm Monday. The result would mark a major shift from the large margins by which Jewish voters have traditionally favored Democrats, though pollsters John and Jim McLaughlin warned that the sample of Jewish voters was small.The journal "Men and Masculinities" will no longer refer to individuals as being "male."

Posted by: Axeman at October 27, 2026 06:51 PM (Fi81e) After a Woke Judge Releases the Despicable Foreign Invader Who Beheaded the Iwo Jima Statue, the Feds Slap Him With Federal ChargesMarines at Quantico are very proud of their monuments and their museum, and of course when Miguel Alonso Maldonado Soriano took a sledgehammer to it and beheaded one of the statue Marines, it launched a firestorm of controversy. Then, Chief Judge Petula Metzler of the Prince William County Circuit Court granted Soriano bond at a mere $2,500. WJLA reporter Nick Minock reported Monday that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had issued a detainer request for Soriano, which is probably why Metzler hurried to release Soriano. Northern Virginia authorities have a track record of releasing criminals, even murderers, just to avoid complying with ICE detainer requests. Fortunately, the DOJ was not going to let Soriano's release go unchallenged.The article notes that many corrupt propaganda organizations refer to the illegal alien, who has received a final order of deportation, a "Virginia man," which is a lie, because we all know the custom is to refer to such foreign criminals as "Maryland man." There's a bit more news of woke judges being squashed. The Supreme Court previously sharply limited Lawless Lowly District Court Judges from blocking deportations, noting that immigration courts had the primary jurisdiction over such cases. But lefty federal judges kept insisting that they could ignore the immigration courts and set deportation policy from the benches. The Supreme Court rejected that. Leftwing judges also relied on a Biden-era executive order allowing them to interfere in deportations. Trump nullified that order. So lefties sued, claiming that Trump's executive order should be set aside so that Biden's executive order could continue. The Supreme Court rejected that too. The Supreme Court on Tuesday declined to reinstate a Biden-era regulation that allowed immigration judges to suspend certain deportation proceedings. The decision came in an unsigned order and followed a request from immigration groups to block an agreement that eliminated the regulation, according to SCOTUSBlog. ... The federal government and Texas reached an agreement to end the rule as part of a court case earlier this year, prompting immigration groups and three cities with large immigrant populations to bring the challenge.The Federalist has more details: In its unsigned order, the high court rejected an emergency application by three Democrat-led cities to pause a consent judgment between the Justice Department and Texas. As described by SCOTUSblog, the agreement ended a Biden-era regulation that permitted "immigration judges to suspend some deportation proceedings -- when, for example, a crime victim or witness is seeking immigration relief, such as asylum -- while the challengers' appeal in the lower federal courts is ongoing." Texas initially sued to end the rule in a lawsuit against the DOJ, which agreed with the Lone Star State and subsequently requested a federal judge to invalidate it. The agreement to end the regulation was approved by Texas-based Chief District Judge Reed O'Connor, a Bush 43 appointee. Three cities -- Baltimore, Maryland; Columbus, Ohio; and New Haven, Connecticut -- joined the legal battle along with Centro Legal de la Raza, a leftist-funded immigration group, in an attempt to uphold the Biden-era rule. O'Connor rejected their request to do so on the grounds that they lack standing. He more specifically dismissed the cities' argument that "the elimination of the rule would cost them money because their taxpayers are likely to be deported," according to SCOTUSblog. The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals also rejected the challengers' emergency request to pause the DOJ and Texas' consent judgment.And more news of woke judges being checked: If you remember, a jury convicted a Somali of many counts of fraud. The woke judge, who looks like Greta Thunberg's younger retard sister, set the jury verdict aside and entered her own verdict: Not Guilty. She argued that the Somali Pirate didn't Knowingly Know what he Doingly Did when he cashed checks obtained by fraud. But an appeals court has set her verdict aside and reinstated the jury verdict.

A unanimous reversal to restore the correct result means the judiciary is hopelessly broken. Or something. I don't know. I don't think so good. But the point is we should abolish the courts. And settle disputes with some good old fashioned greco-roman wrassling. As nude and as gay as possible. Not because I like gay stuff. But because that's what justice requires today: an extra helping of sodomy. If you can't handle all that justice in your orifices, too bad. You gotta get harder.

I come from a family of judges. My grandfather was on SCOTUS. My husband and son very much definitely do not want me on the bench. They're convinced I would give everyone the death penalty. No matter the case. And they might be right.

Posted by: Huck Follywood ====== Impeachment was debated in the Constitutional Convention in the midst of a famed British impeachment trial (Hastings trial IRRC) which sputtered on and off for years. A substantial minority warned in debate that it was in fact toothless but no one cared enough at that point to make it a sticking point for adoption. Subsequent history shows that is correct and the majority relied in part on the idea that officeholders would not be partisans (all the prominent types held that parties were an anathema to a Republic). And promptly created the first party system when in office. Simply put, party organization of the House and Senate which happened early on, has ossified into judges and Democrat judges where Democrats support their illegality in office. So no correction is possible outside wholesale reorganization of the courts. Posted by: whig at October 27, 2026 05:58 PM (E4rtv) 105

8 of the 24 races I voted on here in Charlotte had a republican running. The other 16 were dem only, unopposed. The GOP doesn't even make an attempt.
Posted by: NCKate Traditional GOPe campaign consultants and party organizations in blue cities are there for patronage, not for actually electing people. One of the justifications was that if the GOP competed in heavily Democrat areas, they might cause Democrats to go to the polls affecting statewide races negatively. So they deserted their own people in such places by refusing to fund GOTV nor supply candidates with any money running there. Starting about 2000 or so, it became an idea that GOP could only win if the race featured boring featureless GOP candidates that did nothing and fought for nothing. That would depress the turnout to party bases only and result in winning! At the time, the GOPe conceded the nation was majority Dem and only this strategy could work with GOP. Thus, much of the past GOP types in Congress before Trump were trained in this system of failure theater like promising to overturn Roe with legislation, secure the borders, and build the dang fence (McVain), by essentially lying to their party base.

Here's the weird thing - during the trial, the judge had complete control and ample opportunity to put all her fingers on the scale of justice. She, no doubt, gave the defense every possible opportunity; to prove Yusuf was not the perpetrator. The jury didn't fucking buy it. That says he was guilty as sin.
The proper course would then be for Yusef to appeal the result of the trial, NOT for the judge to set aside the verdict, which is insane. Posted by: notalawyer at October 27, 2026 06:11 PM (lR2Tk) 130

Newsom Touts California As The Only State Where You Can See A Homeless Man Defecating On A Beach And On A Mountain In The Same Day
Posted by: Crusader The same homeless man? I have questions. Posted by: NaCly Dog at October 27, 2026 06:36 PM (u82oZ) 60 Minutes Commits Immigration Fraud by Presenting Yet Another Fake Deportation Sob Story60 MinutesSo, what they're talking about is the practice of deporting asylum-claiming immigrants to "safe third countries." Sometimes those safe third countries then evaluate the asylee's claims and determine them to be fake or overblown, and deport them to their country of origin. This is completely permissible in the law: ShipwreckedcrewIn other words: the third countries we send deportable aliens to have their own courts to evaluate asylum claims, and if they find, through their own processes, that these claims are invalid or contrived, they can deport the alien as well. Is leftist 60 Minutes so racist that they would say that Ghana's courts are entirely incompetent and corrupt? Do they not believe that Proud African People can serve as judges? And: is this poor migrant really at risk if he is sent back to Mali? No, not really. His big claim of persecution is.... "I claim I'm gay, so I get to stay." David Strom points out that, before he claimed asylum for being "gay," this father-of-two committed immigration fraud: Of course, our model (non)citizen has a backstory that 60 Minutes carefully downplayed, including the fact that he was deported after having committed immigration fraud. This father of two wonderful children, you see, is "gay," and his whole case for asylum was based on the fact that his homosexuality made him a target.Among this homosexual's complaints: Upon arrest, he was not allowed to call his female wife. It seems to me that of all the "homosexuals" in the world, this married father of two would be among the most equipped to "blend in" with the straights. Diawara has been fighting deportation for 14 years based on a false claim; he got his final deportation order in 2012, and obviously has enough money to live just about anywhere he wants to. He wanted to live here, though, illegally, and after 14 years of delay, he forced an unnecessary deportation. As the Supreme Court said in its ruling on bail for illegal aliens, they are not being detained by the government so much as choosing to stay in government custody rather than departing as ordered. At any time, he could have gone anywhere. This was his choice.Their main "source" for this "story" is an open-borders group funded by almost every hard-left agitprop group in the world. It gets worse: The DHS official "interviewed" by 60 Minutes did extremely well in the debate -- and 60 Minutes did treat this like an adversarial prosecutorial interrogation, not a news report -- so 60 Minutes cut out all the parts where the official exposed the "reporter" as an agenda-slinging propagandist.

Here, I was curious about ratings and asked AI. 60 minutes still draws 6 to 10 million a week. But really, in a country of 343 million or so, it's hardly watercooler.
No news show is... From ChatGPT What stands out - 60 Minutes dominates the weekly newsmagazine category. Its roughly 7.7 million average is more than twice the audience of 20/20 or Dateline. - ABC World News Tonight leads the evening news programs, with approximately 8.4 million viewers per broadcast. - CBS Evening News is a distant third, attracting roughly half ABC's audience. - Sunday political interview programs attract much smaller audiences, generally around 2.5–2.7 million. There's also an interesting contradiction in the 60 Minutes numbers. Its fourth episode attracted just 6.06 million viewers, reportedly its smallest fourth-episode audience in at least 25 years. Yet the show remains a substantial draw compared with its direct competitors. Posted by: Stateless - Ralphy - 106 years old!

I am so tired of the lies. Thou shalt not bear false witness is not just a suggestion. We have put up with Mary Peltola's ads for months here lying blatantly about both her record and Dan Sullivan's. We have put up with millions of dark money ads from the Lower 48 spouting the same lies and many others. 60 minutes routinely lies about just any old thing that comes down the pike. Liars are the worst kind of fools, trading honesty for an eternity in hell. Would it kill them to tell the truth?

The "worst of the worst" came from Homan about how ICE operates in choosing who to pursue. Worst of the worst was top of the list, and he always said, "anyone else caught in the dragnet not authorized to be here goes, too". So, Juan, wanted for robbery, runs into his home because ICE is in pursuit and ICE also takes his wife and three kids? Well, 20% were criminals, but we deported them all.

Apparently 60 Minutes is all for forcing Ghana to go to Mali, pick this bisexual-heteosexual guy back up, and deport him back to the Unites States because he was treated so shabbily.
And if Ghana refuses to that and says "Fuck you Karen" then 60 Minutes will help make it a Democrat cause which will show up as "Free The Bisesual-Heterosexual Guy Who Got Sent to Mali" on social media complete with a graphic of him with a sad face that the girls can put up as their profile pic.

Posted by: Oldcat Nielsen ratings were always somewhat of a fraud and because advertisers back in the day complained about channel switching which made their mid program ads worthless, Nielsen briefly used a people meter on some respondents to actually measure time spent in front of the screen and promptly dropped it due to its destructive impact on advertising. Have no idea what they use nowadays to gauge but the 'diary' recall by paid participants was always sketchy. 50's movies were correct--mass advertising is mostly a scam perpetrated by the media to prop up profits and their co-conspirators buying ads for corporate marketing. Same with political ads. Which is why social media became the big dog and in turn is widespread fakery of numbers (bots, etc.). Ecclesiastes was right, "There is nothing new under the sun".

Illegal teen runs over and kills kid of an illegal. First two were booked as white caucasians. That's why no trust can be put into crime stats.

Speaking of numbers, Harry Enten just putbout a lengthy prognostication of the election. In it he says the GOP gets slammed in the House races and the Senate is up for grabs.
History, he says, is the if polling is wrong and one party outperforms that party tends to outperform on all close races in the various states. Senate races are all basically within the margin of error in six states, so if the GOP candidate outperforms in say, Texas, then that will likely be true in all the close races. So he says the numbers suggest Democrats have a very slight edge, but there is an overwhelming likelihood (90 % plus)one party or the other will emerge with a comfortable edge in the Senate. What is the cause of this? He says the President is unpopular because of, get this, gasoline prices. That could cost us the election, says Enten.

Charles Lindbergh, kind of sound alike.
Posted by: tubal AFAIK, Charles was an isolationist and WWI veteran but not a Not See sympathizer. He reported back to the US govt from his foreign tours about growing Not See airplane strength and due to his fame and Germanic name, Not Sees were proud to show him around there including new models in their Luftwaffe. After WWII, his name was mud due to the American First notoriety and it took Jimmy Stewart's film, Spirit of St. Louis to revive his reputation. I seriously doubt Jimmy would have done the film if Lindberg was an actual Not See sympathizer nor would Lindberg be allowed to have a private meal with the Apollo 8 (IRRC) crew just before they orbited the Moon.

He directed another Anti-Trump Deep State criminal to leak to the media. And then he would claim "I never leaked that to the media," which is a True Lie, because he used a middleman cut-out to actually leak to the media. This is a crime and as you may have heard, No One Is Above The Law.The Trump administration charged former FBI Director James Comey for the third time on Monday, with the latest accusing him of transmitting national defense information and conspiring to transmit national defense information. A grand jury has not indicted Comey on the latest charges, but the case has been playing out under seal since Oct. 5, according to NBC News. Comey's defense attorneys sought to have the charges dismissed last week.More from The Federalist: Prosecutors allege the disgraced former FBI director authorized James Baker, the agency's general counsel at the time, to provide the corporate media outlet with classified national security details. Comey, the DOJ alleges, wanted to "correct misinformation" published the previous day by Reuters. Comey faces charges of violating the Espionage Act by transmitting classified information not authorized receive it -- presumably The Times reporter. In a post Monday evening, the DOJ said it had filed a "waiverless criminal information to toll the statute of limitations as it relates to allegations concerning former FBI Director Comey." The legal avenue enables the Justice Department to charge Comey without initially obtaining a grand jury indictment. "Filing a criminal information to toll the statute of limitations is a widely recognized practice in federal court and has been approved by multiple Circuit Courts of Appeals," the post states, adding that the criminal investigation is ongoing. The DOJ had no further comment Monday evening.Julie Kelly points out that James Baker is at the center of almost every deep state conspiracy. Julie Kelly 🇺🇸In further No One Is Above the Law News: The FBI raided the home of billionaire patron of the gaseous Eric Swalwell. The FBI searched a Beverly Hills mansion in connection to an investigation into former Rep. Eric Swalwell, according to two people familiar with the probe. The home is owned by a Swalwell donor, one of the people said. CNN has reached out to the FBI and a lawyer for Swalwell for comment. Swalwell has been the subject of federal and state investigations. The Democrat resigned from Congress and dropped his gubernatorial bid in April after reporting from CNN and the San Francisco Chronicle detailed allegations of sexual misconduct, including one former staffer who said he had raped her.If you recall, Swalwell hid out at the mansion of a deep state Democrat backer when these rape allegations surfaced. It was this home that was raided. The FBI has raided a Beverly Hills mansion in connection with the investigation into disgraced California politician Eric Swalwell -- and sources told The Post it is linked to a sex worker. The Tuesday raid is believed to have targeted the home of billionaire Stephen Cloobeck, who prominently backed Swalwell's run for governor and even let him stay at his mansion in SoCal. However, when allegations surfaced that former Congressman Swalwell sexually assaulted multiple women including former staffers, Cloobeck changed his mind and booted him out of the house. "I am no longer associated with a man that takes advantage of women," Cloobeck said. "I support women's rights."Uh-huh. The mention of a sex worker being at the core of this probe reminds me of the hotel video of Swalwell getting nasty with a woman on a bed, in the company of a man who looked a lot like Swalwell's married Wang-Man, Reuben Gallego. I definitely can't say there's any connection. I'm just saying it brings that escapade to mind. And now for my favorite song: Howard Jones' "(No One Is) Above the Law."

When Trump was elected the GOPe, media, and Dems all told him you can arrest opposition figures even if they openly committed a crime because that's what a banana republic does. And so he let Hillary and others skate.
Then after Biden stole the 2020 election they charged Trump with a bunch of non-crimes. The Dems were warned by, well, us, this was a bad idea. Their answer?

In DC, John Bolton was so fucked he just plead guilty and got:
• Maximum of 60 months in prison. • $2.25 million fine. • Forfeiture of federal retirement pay and annuities. • Up to 100 hours of community service and an intelligence debriefing On the same charges under the Espionage Act. Posted by: TheJamesMadison ======== Now it appears that Pence himself is under investigation for his leaks regarding Gen. Flynn along with Bolton perhaps as an intermediary.

Go Waltz -
A fiery confrontation erupted on the United Nations General Assembly floor Tuesday as US Ambassador Mike Waltz traded shouted words with Cuba's foreign minister while exposing the communist regime's illicit wealth. Video obtained by the New York Post captured the heated dispute, which escalated as the ambassador called out 'corrupt Cuban elites' and held up a photo of late dictator Fidel Castro wearing two Rolexes - a luxury estimated at roughly $40,000. Waltz then showed a photo of Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel to the crowd. 'According to the regime's own statistics, that would pay for 55 years of an average Cuban wage,' Waltz noted. 'It didn't just start with Castro. This is the current Cuban President, also with a Rolex on.' Stepping away from his seat, Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla aggressively approached the podium to brand Waltz a liar. The US envoy fired back without missing a beat: 'Back up!' Addressing the stunned assembly, Waltz added, 'He doesn't like hard truths. You can come and intimidate all you want.' Posted by: beckster at October 27, 2026 04:03 PM (kX27y) 174

Watch carefully. Every frivolous case brought against the left will be used as evidence that each case against anyone on the right will also be frivolous. And for a large part of the population, it will work.
You're not wrong but Comey isn't on the left. He's a Republican. He is left of the far right which makes him a communist leftist!!! /s Obviously Trump ordered the persecution to continue regardless of the legal viability of the charges. I expect the case to eventually collapse just like the last ones. He doesn’t care. Getting a conviction is not the goal. Harassment is the goal. Making his enemies life miserable is the goal. I hate this so much. I despise James Comey and I wish him nothing but ill, and yet this runs smack dab into the intolerable abuses of power (and incompetence) that characterize the orange shit clown regime. So I have to be team Comey, which is just appalling. You're not team Comey. You're team rule of law.

Babylon Bee -
ARLINGTON, TX — Cowboys fans expressed growing concern this week that another regular-season loss could jeopardize the team's opportunity to suffer a humiliating collapse in the first round of the playoffs. Supporters warned that unless Dallas turned things around soon, the team could find itself watching the postseason from home instead of getting everyone's hopes up, choking in the first round, and then watching the playoffs from home. Posted by: Stateless - Ralphy - 106 years old! Puppy at heart! at October 27, 2026 04:03 PM (Sco7b) I rate this as scarily accurate. Posted by: naturalfake at October 27, 2026 04:06 PM (YSUhf) 183
Afternoon.
OT I did my civic duty and early voted today. So I've mentioned this from time to time but I'm one of the (small-L) libertarians here. Been voting pretty consistently LP since 2000 with a few exceptions. GW in 2004, Trump in 2020 and '24. '24 I voted *mostly* R but this is the first year since I turned 18 in '98 where I didn't vote for a single solitary LP candidate (first ever LP vote was for a teacher in my high school running for Congress). This year? Republican all the way down the ballot. That felt weird, man. Anyway, I've done my part. Please, Republican Party, don't be the fuck ups you usually are and sell the country to communists because "Orange Man Bad." I don't want my Senator to be a gay pinko furry.

That divide has been accelerating.

AWFLs that want social acceptance and vote Dem because they're the good guys on the social issue of the day. They're all retarded, and 2/3rds at least are evil.

Posted by: TeeJ at October 27, 2026 04:48 PM (ix5nG) Oh My Word: There's Another Form of Rampant Immigration Fraud That No One Could Possibly Have ImaginedI'm dumbstruck. The American government issues "U-Visas" to foreigners who are witnesses to crimes and who assist law enforcement in finding the criminals. So immigration fraudsters have been setting up entirely fake-armed robberies, with visa-seeking illegal aliens paying $5,000 to $30,000 to "witness," so that they can then apply for a U-Visa after assisting law enforcement. This is unbelievable. I couldn't even have imagined this kind of crime.Read the whole thing. There are foreign cultures which actually valorize scamming and grifting, especially of those outside their tribe, whom they consider justifiable targets for scamming and fraud. As Karol Markowicz comments: Americans are -- or were -- a high-trust society that just doesn't consider that some people build their lives over cheating and scamming strangers. We need to stop immigration almost entirely. Enough is enough.

"After obtaining the certifications, the purported victims submitted fraudulent U-visa applications to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, prosecutors said."
My take is this guy was mostly scamming the illegals looking to scam the USCIS. The U-Visa has fairly strict requirements, including only certain types of crimes (most of which are sex or "body" crimes like rape, sex trafficking, etc). Armed robbery isn't on that list. You also have to suffer real injury and provide real assistance to the police and prosecutors. How can you do this when the crime was faked? The prosecutor has to approve the U-visa application, and then USCIS reviews it. It's totally possible that a crooked or woke prosecutor was just signing these things willy-nilly and someone at USCIS was doing the same. But I think more likely, this guy's main play was enticing illegals to give him piles of money to set up this scam, and then deliver nothing. So sad.

We need to stop immigration almost entirely. Enough is enough.
======== I've mentioned this a few times, but the lobbying and legislative efforts to get to the 1924 immigration act took about 40 years until the law actually passed under Coolidge. There were signs of immigration being a massive issues in the 1840s. It accelerated over the years, in particular during the Civil War and the early 1900s, with immigrants forming insular ethnic conclaves that refused to assimilate to wider American culture. If we don't get immigration reform in the next couple of years, that won't 'mean that the effort can't come back. It takes a lot of time and a lot of destruction to get the populace and, more importantly, the elected officials on board with cutting immigration down to effectively nothing.

I really liked Donovan. The Beatles did as well. He was their hippie flower child prototype. Posted by: Pudinhead at October 27, 2026 02:19 PM (Wp1X1) I read a story a few years ago, that Lennon really wanted to learn this peculiar way that Donovan played the guitar for some song he was working on. Apparently, Lennon had a terrible time learning it, even though they practiced a lot. Anyway, at some point, McCartney wandered over, took a look at how Donovan was playing and picked it up instantly. Then, went off to write a song using it. IIRC, that song was "Blackbird".

A few years ago a few people were murdered in an Asian restaurant in Seattle. They were trying to find someone with info about these racist murders, when a few illegals stepped up and gave some information and claimed these visas. Oh what heroes they were, the newspapers and TV news wouldn't show their face because they could be put in danger - until it was found that the people who got visas did the murders to get the visas. Of course then they were forgotten about by the media because you dont want to turn in a democrat cause.

The American government issues "U-Visas" to foreigners who are witnesses to crimes and who assist law enforcement in finding the criminals.
So immigration fraudsters have been setting up entirely fake-armed robberies, with visa-seeking illegal aliens paying $5,000 to $30,000 to "witness," so that they can then apply for a U-Visa after assisting law enforcement. It's right there in the name. We didn't expect UVisas to cause cancer? Posted by: mikeski, applying sunscreen at October 27, 2026 02:41 PM (VHUov) 84

In one of his documentaries, Dinesh D'Souza said the reason he came to America was India was too corrupt. You have to know someone, and especially in a caste system, it is impossible to be upwardly mobile. And you have to exchange money and deals for anything to happen. America freed him from all that, to pursue what he wanted to do and be purely on merit and pluck.
My interpretation of that is it shows why, despite Indians being highly intelligent and benevolent in general , their economy is stagnant. They have to clean house before they can fix things, and they refuse to do it. We completely shuttered immigration in the 20s with Coolidge. I don't know if that's possible to do again. But we need to do it for at least one generational cycle or two, to stabilize the middle class cultural norms of our currently society that is being lost. Self starters, high trust, entrepreneurial, risk taking, optimistic, and high integrity. It is truly the best and worst of times... as is every generation I think. It's a timeless concept.

When we got stationed in teh Philippines we shipped our car there. Once we got the car, secured US military plates and papers we drove off base for the first time to go to our rental house. No sooner than we crossed $hit river bridge I saw a kid walking with his sister on the side of the road. He was about 10-12. Once he saw us he stopped walking and got ready to toss his sister into the road in front of us. Fortunately for me I was paying attention and missed running over her when he shoved her in front of our car. The kid ran off after I flagged down a local cop and told him what had happened. The cop told me that the kid was looking for a big payout after I hit his sister with our car. Posted by: Mister Scott (Formerly GWS) at October 27, 2026 02:51 PM (I43vL) 120

Musical genius versus musically competent, I guess. Posted by: naturalfake ==== Despite all the shit McCartney gets, he was the real melodic composer of the band as well as an excellent musician. On a couple of his solo works, McCartney played all the instruments including drums. There is a reason that McCartney's songs get covered while John's do not. John was interested more in the sound of lyrics sung rather than content and was more open to musical experimentalism than McCartney was. Only a competent guitarist as even he admitted that Paul and Ringo were the true musicians of the Beatles while George was developing at the time. According to George, Paul's criticisms caused him to not develop as a guitar player as fast as he might have done in the Beatles by undermining his confidence in his playing.

Not gonna lie, I think AWFLs would love polygamy, as long as they are the first wife. They can be the boss babe going out and making money, along with their husband, the second wife can be the homemaker and cook and clean. Free labor, cleaning, childcare, dog walking from the second wife. Like a legal slave, especially if their beta male husband is ok with them treating them that way, that lets them virtue signal an alternative lifestyle.
But I think we all know that this is less for white women, and more for the first gen immigrant polygamous families already here so they can step out of the shadows. Polygamous families often commit welfare fraud, the first wife is legal and the others get bennies as a "single mom." Legalizing polygamy would legitimate all the pairings, and I assume would eliminate the welfare benefits? Or am I too optimistic? They will probably somehow still stay on the dole.

Yep. Very common scam in the Philippines. Normally it's more organized. They do it with other "relatives" around. After you stop, a dozen or more, "relatives" will surround you, screaming for a payout. The cops in the Philippines are at least as crooked as the cops in Mexico. They'd stop you for nothing and expect a bribe. My Dad's motorcycle was stolen from on base. They lifted the bike right over the nine foot wall. US investigators found the bike, but the new owner was politically connected, so nothing happened. Our house on base was broken into when we were in the house. My parents woke up and yelled at them to get out. They didn't care. My mom leaned out the window and blew a whistle. The Filipino guards used whistles, and they had no problem shooting thieves.

I will pledge to abolish all existing Federal, state, and local laws. Replacing them with the infinitely simpler, shorter, and easy to understand, Code of Gref. Modeled after the Code of Hammurabi.

I know I have weird theories and some of them are more humorous than others but here's one for you.
The Brits have had this "Five a Day" campaign about their servings of fruits and vegetables, forever. They all know it. I guess it's as common knowledge as, like, "I'm lovin it". So... I think the campaign is priming them for the REAL five a day (Mecca), which... is not as good for you. Posted by: ... at October 27, 2026 01:28 PM (y49sE) 50

I suppose it's going to cost us a lot of blood and tears before we acknowledge what seems to be the simple fact that muslims by virtue of their religion are totally unfit to participate in an open Western society.
--- We can't even come to terms with the failure that "sexual equality" has been. When it's all about establishing female prominence through law, based on the idea that the existing order is some "patriarchy" which keeps males in charge. The law can't know everything that happened exactly. Including to mete out punishments. So the consistency of an account is how it ascertains a probability of happening. The law-backed female tendency to say "We should be allowed our irrationality" is saying "Ignore the parts of my case that don't makes sense, and punish the other party". Thus, if the "days of irrationality" case for Lucy Craig gains any traction in a forum of law, it says that the standard of proof is not "preponderance of evidence" it's evidence + excuses which might be the case outside what a court traditionally considers evidentiary. When this case fails, as it should, it will witness to "The Patriarchy" for people who already have their bias.

Combine this with the self-disarmament that has left the UK as a relatively weak power even within NATO ..... wow. Yet to my persistent amazement many of the Least Clueless* Beltway types continue to dream that it's 1977 or something, that a well-armed somewhat serious UK is a key ally against an armed-to-the-teeth intermittenly aggressive Russia. When neither part of that situation exists any more. * they're not stupid, and they're not as ridiculously dumb and clueless as, by this point, all of their counterparts on the "left" or establishment side, but they simply live in a make-believe world when it comes to NATO and Russia Posted by: rhomboid at October 27, 2026 01:57 PM (U/Byj) 143

So, Dems are not relying on really bad readings of early voting in states that don't have partisan voter registration. So, they look at the partisan flags in the data in OH and TX and say, "There are more Ds than Rs voting" even though the partisan flag is just which party primary they last voted in. That's not a great measure of overall party makeup of the general election electorate. Yes, early voting analysis can be bad. Democrats are really bad at it. A handful of rando accounts on the right have really, really good records with it, though. TonerousHyus is one.

Much bigger country with all the associated considerations, but knowing only what I know I'd like to see us go Full Venezuela on Brazil. Not the SF raid/abduction - the sanctions and pressures we put on Venezuela after Maduro stole an election. Would be a first against Brazil.
We'll see if I have the diligence to dig into further details (general laughter), but just the nominal 2nd round gainzzz by the commie elf in states like Santa Catarina and Parana (southern states that are different in almost every way from the rest of Brazil) are ridiculous on their face. Small conservative parties fail to make it past the 1st round - and their voters go to the commie elf and not Bolsonaro? Huh? In the most "right-wing" electorates in the country?

Not sure how real it was, but I saw a phone-recorded bit from a "Bronx poll watcher" she talked about how the poll workers were waiting around for her to leave for the day before they had secured the votes from the voting machine, and the facilitator at one time threated to get the cops involved.
But she was holding on to the statutes regarding polls securing the votes, and as a watcher she had every right to stay until they removed the votes from the machine and sealed them. So, call the cops, and I'll read the law to them. If the Bronx has to resort to fast-n-loose elections, just think how much fixing might be going on.

Saw a show on Fox Sunday which had 4 guys I've never seen before, probably podcasters. They said that they all had years of experience in polling and campaigning.
They also said that the Dems are engaging in a typical fraud they normally do. They create "polling organizations" and then try to use their political clout to get these organizations compiled into statistics and quoted. They said that is likely all we are seeing with El-Sayed, and Rogers probably wins in a walk. Posted by: Axeman at October 27, 2026 02:19 PM (Fi81e) 239

Apparently, Lennon had a terrible time learning it, even though they practiced a lot.

Ilhan Nur Said Elmi's Latest Husband-of-Convenience Has a History of, Get This, Massive Serial Fraud and Shady Cash Infusions from Foreign BillionairesI know you didn't see that coming. Did I just blow your minds or what? Andrew Kerr at the Free Beacon:The article notes the huge sums taxpayers pay for this foreign pirate spy's upkeep, including $85,000 per year for housing. See the article for that. That proves that Ilhan Nur Said Elmi is lying about living hand-to-mouth, but I don't think it's news to you that this smelly brother-marrying grifter is lying. I want to focus on her "husband's" fraud and mysterious infusions of foreign cash. Now we come to the many lawsuits her husband has collected, which allege defrauding investors. Reading between the lines: Mynett needed money to pay off the people he'd defrauded so that this wouldn't become a bigger issue, so an Indian billionaire "invested" $11.25 million in his "companies." It's a payoff. It's a fix. To top it off: The "investment" was secured with "collateral" consisting of six of Hunter Biden's "watercolors." I can't back that up. Because I just made that up completely. That's what we in the trade call Corpo Media Fake News. But it wouldn't surprise you, would it? Investors sued Mynett and Hailer's marijuana venture, Badlands, for $1.7 million alleging fraud after Hailer told them in writing he couldn't repay their funds because the Office of Foreign Assets Control (a Treasury Department agency that enforces sanctions against alleged international terrorists) had seized control of its accounts. Their winery, eStCru, stopped paying employees in 2023 and, by February 2024, had just $650 in its bank account as it owed another investor $780,000 to settle a separate fraud allegation. And then Mynett and Hailer struck gold with Byju Raveendran, the Indian billionaire owner of the now-bankrupt educational technology firm Byju. Hailer testified in those bankruptcy proceedings that Rose Lake Capital received two wires from Byju in June 2024, totaling $11.25 million, in connection with a failed deal to acquire the $1.2 billion leveraged loan at the center of the bankruptcy case. Hailer testified that the funds were routed to Rose Lake "from Dubai to Mauritius to the UK to the USA" and that, days later, Byju demanded the return of the funds. It's unclear whether Rose Lake Capital ever returned Byju's $11.25 million. By the end of 2024, Mynett and Hailer's winery and marijuana businesses settled their respective fraud lawsuits with cash settlements, and Rose Lake Capital distributed $213,000 to Mynett, according to records reviewed in April by the Wall Street Journal. One of their investors told the New York Post he was "shocked" Mynett and Hailer obtained the money to settle the lawsuit after claiming financial insolvency just months earlier. Rose Lake Capital's $11.25 million cash infusion in June 2024 may be the nexus of Omar's infamous $30 million accounting error in her 2024 financial disclosure. She first reported last year that her husband's stake in Rose Lake Capital was worth up to $25 million, and his winery was worth up to $5 million at the end of 2024. But in April, Omar filed an amended report revising her and her husband's 2024 net worth down to no more than $65,000 and that his companies were worthless on paper. Her office told the Free Beacon that Mynett's accountant made the elementary accounting error of failing to account for business liabilities when calculating their worth.So how did he extract over $200,000 from a worthless, bankrupted company? And this is interesting: Yesterday I posted an anti-Israel, pro-Hamas ad that claimed that eggs cost so much because we give Israel aid. No mention on the huge amounts of aid we give to, say, Egypt or any other Muslim country.
Cenk Uygur, the uncle of anti-American streamer and Abdul El-Sayed campaign surrogate Hasan Piker, is behind an ad supporting El-Sayed in the Michigan Senate race that blames Israel for high grocery prices in the United States and accuses El-Sayed's Republican opponent, Mike Rogers, of dual loyalties. One Jewish leader denounced the spot as a "case study in antisemitism." Rebellion PAC, an outside group that says it's "united in the fight against a rigged system," released the 90-second ad this weekend in collaboration with Uygur's media company The Young Turks. It depicts a couple in a grocery store linking the price of eggs and bananas in the United States to Israel and the war on Iran. "We have to set that $7 aside for killing Palestinians," the woman says as her husband picks up a carton of eggs. The ad closes with photos of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other leaders of the Jewish state as a narrator says, "Mike Rogers is for they/them, Abdul El-Sayed is for you," mimicking an ad Republicans ran against Kamala Harris in 2024 that highlighted her support for taxpayer-funded transgender surgeries. The ad also notes that Israel has a universal health care system. "We're paying for that, too, probably," the woman featured in the ad says without any basis in fact. Israel levies a progressive health insurance tax on citizens. The system is also covered by general government tax revenues. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Edward-Isaac Dovere @IsaacDovere Patrick Gaspard, Obama's political director, says pushback to another Harris run is like boxers that didn't want an Ali comeback: "They were saying that not b/c they were worried Muhammad Ali would fall flat on his face—they were worried he would win.” - Mary Katharine Ham @mkhammer "When we think about floating, truly floating, we have to look at the butterfly, don’t we? And the butterfly, it doesn’t just float. It operates within the context of the air around it. You have to look at the significance of the passage of time when the bee decides to sting. Because a sting is not just a moment. It is a process. It is time for us to do what we have been doing, and that is stinging, and that time is every day. it’s about the capacity of the float and the significance of the sting. (Cackles). It really is."

Cenk Chungus is also the idiot who challenged Joe Rogan to an MMA fight some years ago.
Rogan was in great shape at the time and training pretty hard in MMA fighting. There were training videos. Bro can fight. Chungus was a chungus who probably got winded lifting the toilet seat. The fight would have been over very very quickly, with Chungus in an ambulance. Chungus thought he would win because he's "bigger" than Rogan. Chungus is 5-8.

Only difference between fascists and commies is that fascists still keep and use the capitalists (which are highly regulated) and that fascists are nationalists (though in reality commies are too). Everything else is the same.
Posted by: jim (in Kalifornia) at October 27, 2026 12:29 PM (l3cgK) Respectfully, there is not even that much difference. The purpose is to control the economy so the goodies go into the right pockets, and make sure the people whose pockets get emptied can't complain. Both Fascism (all models) and communism (all models) are economic theories that require massive modification to society to "work". That modification is abusive to the individual and in the end counter productive to the economy as a whole, but theft is rarely employed for the greater good. The only difference between them is what pretext the rulers clamp on to justify their abuse and theft. Posted by: Kindltot at October 27, 2026 12:37 PM (rbvCR) 125

It's amazing that these shitheads are still whining about the price of eggs. Do they ever buy them? Eggs are cheap again.
This idiotic ad is trying to appeal to more "normal" people upset about high prices. But eggs? They're like $3 now. Anyone watching this is gonna be like "how do they send $7 to Israel for eggs when they only cost $3?" I don't eat eggs, but a week or so ago my mom asked me to pick some up, so I did.

ng the price of eggs and bananas in the United States to Israel and the war on Iran. "We have to set that $7 aside for killing Palestinians," the woman says as her husband picks up a carton of eggs. The ad closes with photos of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other leaders of the Jewish state as a narrator says, "Mike Rogers is for they/them, Abdul El-Sayed is for you," mimicking an ad Republicans ran against Kamala Harris in 2024 that highlighted her support for taxpayer-funded transgender surgeries.
The ad also notes that Israel has a universal health care system. "We're paying for that, too, probably," the woman featured in the ad says without any basis in fact. Israel levies a progressive health insurance tax on citizens. The system is also covered by general government tax revenues. == The memo went out ! CAIR is working overtime!

My promise to you today is that I will always float. Always float. Because floating is important. If we don't float, we sink. We sink. We sink. And sinking is bad. It's not good to sink. Our ancestors and the slaves didn't want us to sink. So we float. Like the butterfly. What do you think of when you think of a butterfly? You think of colors. Many colors. And wings. And wings. But back to what I was saying, because child, sometimes I lose my train of thought. And trains are important. They go in tunnels. In tunnels. Without tunnels we would not have the great Lincoln Tunnel. Or that other one through that mountain in France, what's the name of that one. But yes, we float, float through the tunnels like a magic butterfly. And magic is good. Magic is so important. For children. And really aren't the children, what it's all about? The children. When you think about it, the children are the future. Because without children there is no future. No future. No future. So we teach them well. And we let them. Them. THEM. We let THEM lead the way. Because of the beauty they possess. Could you imagine not possessing beauty inside? What that would be like? It would be devastating.

Start from the beginning, if it can be found.
Before co-founding the E Street Group in 2018, Will Hailer & Tim Mynett were veteran Democratic political operatives who built their careers managing high-profile campaigns and fundraising operations. They initially met while working for Keith Ellison, then a U.S. Representative from Minnesota. (Fox News +1) Mynett spent over a decade working as the national finance and political director for Keith Ellison. (Traveling the nation, raising capital) After graduating from the University at Albany in 2003 with a degree in polysci, he spent 15 years in Washington, D.C., working for various progressive political organizations and consulting firms. He specialized in digital strategy, fundraising, and campaign communication. (I'll leave Hailer out for the present.) Mynett and Haile established the political consulting firm E Street Group together in 2018. After Keith Ellison went on to become an attorney general, E Street Group went on to work on the congressional campaigns of U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar. She and Mynett married in March 2020.

Prior relationships: Omar and Ahmed Hirsi first married in a faith tradition ceremony in 2002 and separated in 2008.
She legally married Ahmed Nur Said Elmi on February 12, 2009. Omar stated that her relationship with Elmi ended within their faith tradition in 2011. She reconciled and resumed her relationship with Hirsi later in 2011 or 2012, and the couple had their third child together in 2012. (Newsweek +1) Because she did not obtain a civil divorce from Elmi until December 2017, she remained legally married to her second husband for several years after she had already returned to and was living with her first husband. She and Hirsi eventually legally married in January 2018 before divorcing in 2019. (Newsweek and World Atlas news) Ahmed Hirsi remarried a nurse named Ladan Ahmed in a private ceremony in Mogadishu, Somalia, on December 12, 2019—just 37 days after his November 5, 2019, divorce from U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar was finalized.

I had a surprising conversation with Gemini today.
It admitted that despite the media controversy was all about "greed" and "irresponsible" behavior of organizations like Bear Sterns "making money out of thin air", 1. the FAS 147 (Financial Accounting Standards) was implemented in November 2007 and in a tight window of 4 months, Bear Sterns and AIG were gone. 2. And yes "swaps" were not an irresponsible fiction by finance companies, but needed like overnight borrowing by a bank from the FED to maintain asset ratios. It also admitted that FAS, which increased stricture to "Mark to Market" may well be described as a "ham-handed measure of the government". I've known about Mark to Market most of this century, but Gemini introduced me to this academic subject called the "Mark to Market Death Spiral". I explained I only suspected that M2M was the culprit, but neve saw a title that made it clear that it was a developed theory like that. What about you? Do any of you remember the phrase "Mark to Market" in the press? Or the theory "Mark to Market Death Spiral"? I don't, and I've read and read based on my suspicions, and I've never seen such a name.

Somalia does use the "born at age 1" system. A newborn is considered one year old at birth, and gains a year with each passing of the Gu' (the main rainy season, roughly April–June), rather than on a calendar New Year. So a child born in August who misses that year's Gu' won't "turn two" until the following April–June, while a child born in May (during Gu') is already Gu'-jir (one year old) immediately.
This makes Somalia an interesting outlier: it shares the inclusive counting principle with East Asian systems, but the year-rollover is tied to the agricultural/rainy season cycle rather than a fixed calendar date. The practice is still observed, particularly among rural and nomadic communities, though urban Somalis increasingly use the Western system for official purposes.

I've read this pist and if I could I wanht to suggest you few innteresting thins oor suggestions. Maybe yoou could write next articles referring to tthis article. I desire to read even more thinhgs about it! xnxx Posted by: https://cheating.xvideosporn.cc at October 27, 2026 05:12 PM (/kSw6) The Morning Rant: France Is Burning![]() "I have ... asked the government to respond to the legitimate demands that lie at the root of this social movement," Macron told reporters in Marseille, where he traveled to inspect the damage from earlier protests.The cowardice and willful ignorance just drips from this statement. Macron is a weak clown, and his pandering to the rioters, or to be precise...insurrectionists, is part of the problem in a post-modern Europe. Describing the rioters in the most passive and generous terms allows the government response to be passive and accommodating, rather than what is needed to quell the rise of violence as the default tactic in the 3rd World's conquering of France. Students? That's nonsense, and everyone knows it, but calling them students makes this a home-grown revolt, and much more easily dismissed. But when a luxury store in Place Vendôme is attacked, When Galeries Lafayette is looted, when Jewish-owned stores are targeted, when streets are blockaded to prevent law enforcement from responding to organized theft, it is clearly not a protest over the admittedly awful conditions of French public schools. That is the excuse for France's 3rd World denizens to emerge from their banlieues and burn and destroy...to show France that they are ascendant, and they will rule! They fly the flags of their 3rd World sh*thole nations and the flag of the ersatz country of "Palestine" to signal that they are not French...that they are not of the West...that they are there to conquer. The Great Replacement has already occurred, and it isn't as a result of a majority, but rather the single-mindedness of purpose that the invaders demonstrate. They are committed to their goal, and until France and the rest of the West commits to the preservation of Western culture with the same intensity, we will continue to lose.

I've been saying for 20 years that we need to denuclearize Europe. It could have been easily done 20 years ago. Less easily done now, and even less easily done in the future.

The riots in France (and elsewhere in Europe) are being funded by the usual rancorous cancerous commies. It's all planned and orchestrated. Go after the money sources, and the riots will disappear or at least be drastically diminished.
We saw how it worked here under T2. Unlike T1, T2 was a much improved new model terminator, who went after the funding and organization of the rent-a-mobs that plagued his first term. The result? Instead of massive BLM and antifa hordes destroying cities during T1, we got a handful of motley geriatrics and pugly lesbians waving No Kinds signs at passing cars.

The spark is the midterms. Most Americans didn't riot in the streets over the Floyd farce. But it didn't stop paid protesters in BLM/antifa from rioting in protected blue states and cities for over a year causing massive damage and derailing a lot of Trump's agenda. And then after the 2020 election they vanished. Unexpectedly. Regardless of the outcome of the elections the country is clearly very divided and as we've seen over and over the left does not care about facts or reality. They want open borders. They don't care about crime. They want to mutilate abort children. They still think Trump is a pedophile in the service of Putin. They will believe what they are told to believe.

Cut the head off a rat and the body dies. FWIW, Meta shutdown the No Kings facebook page(s?) right before their most recent march, cutting off their established channels for protest day organizing. For example, No Kings likes to use the group of people for multiple protests around town, giving the appearance/narrative that the protests were more well-attended. "Look, 5 protests across the city, each with well over N attendees!" is breathlessly reported by MSM and protest leaders, while knowing the events times were staggered to allow crowd movement to each.

"Never happen. The globalists running France (and the EU) are technocratic and regard state violence as something to exert against native Europeans and Trump followers, not their muslim constituents."
Posted by: Huck Follywood Yes, the hordes of black Africans are only there (France to UK) because the globalists have orchestrated it. That is their hammer against "Wester, Culture" (which means hammer against individual rights and sovereign countries). The globalists seem a bigger threat than Putin, who is more in favor of sovereign countries than the globalists. Not sure where China fits in with the globalists since the CCP also plans on running the world, but Xi might get along with globalists to defeat "The West".

Sure, the crazy lefties are forever looking for a way to excite revolution (and they seem to be doing so lots more actively right now, as DR shows us), but those seditionists don't feel like they are leading a popular movement. It's not like we are seeing the Orange Revolution all over again, or even a Tea Party. We are seeing the dedicated Deep State revel itself, and that seems like a big-time law enforcement issue for Trump and the next President, not a serious threat to the Republic. At least to me.

That is a misread of the plan. Besides, Lots of people thought accusing Trump of colluding with Russia was so stupid it wouldn't hamstring the 1st two years of his presidency. It did. Removing Trump would be a bonus but not their goal. Their goal is to make the country ungovernable and set up the country for structural change and the 2028 election for a win to enable it.

And Trump's control of the executive is a lot stronger now than 6 years ago, and he has practical examples of sending in the National Guard to quell crime, much less riots. It is a fucking stupid plan, even if kept secret. And it wasn't kept secret. It's Democrats fighting the last war that they actually lost in the same way. These people are not geniuses.

147 The narrative the left has been pushing for a while is "Dems are way ahead" so many right leaning people are getting freaked out about this.
But if we vote we win. So vote. Get your friends to vote. And just mention in passing to the lefties you know how rents have collapsed and it would be a shame if we went back to the price increases of 4 years ago...

Until then, both sides have every incentive of saying, "Oh no! Democrats may win! Donate!"

The latest Texas poll at RealClear is a RV poll (outlier, showing Talafreako up 5). At this point no RV polls should be incorporated into their aggregate. It's just silly.

Posted by: Vengeance at October 27, 2026 12:02 PM (h/6op) ====== @TonerousHyus has been doing deep dives into TX, OH, and GA. Vote patterns aren't changing. Those who voted early in 2024 are the ones voting early in 2026. No one remembers this, but the left was saying that the drops in early voting from Democrats in 2024 were indications that they were going to flood the polls on election day and deliver victory to Kamala. Instead, that didn't happen and we got the reality that proportional drops from early voting for Democrats were matched with similar drops in election day voting. Democrats just lost voters.

The reason the media is billing this as "students" and "youth" is unfortunately not merely to protect who it really is.
They are weaponzing the "young" now which could be anyone under 50. The same way they weaponized blacks, women, trans etc. Now they want anyone who feels "young" to have a ready made excuse to go do appalling shit, and to never understand anything beyond their own lens of "oppression". I warned six months back about the Left weaponizing "youth" next. It's here. Posted by: ... at October 27, 2026 12:05 PM (y49sE) 166

The French government announced on Monday that it would phase out an unpopular online university admissions platform, a significant concession to high school students who have led a protest movement that has mushroomed into weeks of nationwide unrest. The government also said it would create 15,000 new higher education spaces for students, cap the size of second-year high school classes at 28 students and make available four billion euros ($4.48 billion) in low-interest loans to renovate dilapidated middle school and high school buildings.

Great Morning Rant!
"They will take Britain by force," Douglas Murray on X (and YouTube). Integration has failed. He was also on the Jesse Watter's show last evening. AI: The show featured a segment breaking down the explosive, widespread riots and civil unrest that have recently expanded from France into Italy (where crowds overran the Colosseum) and Spain. In his analysis, Murray argued that the mainstream narrative completely misreads the situation. He stated that the continent is facing a deep, structural civilizational crisis. His core takeaway was that we are witnessing the beginning of a prolonged, ten-year eruption where Europe will continue sliding downhill because it has allowed in massive populations that actively reject and show hostility toward traditional European values, laws, and historic monuments. And it's coming here someday, much sooner if something happens (political displacement) to Trump etal. Posted by: L - No nic.... at October 27, 2026 12:11 PM (NFX2v) 174

>>>Rioting strengthens the political parties that oppose them and weakens the political parties that support them. There was a host of research out of the late 60s/early 70s that showed this in America. Democrats weakened significantly as a party because of that period's rioting.

Per Wiki:
"Will Cotton (born 1965 in Melrose, Massachusetts, U.S.) lives and works in New York. The artist belongs to the generation of American painters who have taken the language of figurative style painting in a totally new direction. He works in his studio building giant confectionary-based assemblages, such as gingerbread houses, sweets, cake mountains and chocolate seas, opening the door to the creation of a new reality. Cotton sees his works as utopias that explore the notions of temptation and excess." Posted by: Tuna at October 27, 2026 09:32 AM (lJ0H4) 22

This guy is another modern painter who has wonderful talent then focusses it on silly, smarmy subjects. (Hello Andy Warhol.) If this painting was a one time thing it would be impressive for the technique while displaying a sense of humor. As part of an ongoing theme the message gets in the way of the art. It's really annoying.

Pixy had an article and this was hilarious and terrifying... COBOL came into being in 1959. Nearly seven decades later, it is still everywhere. According to IBM, COBOL is the foundation for more than 40 percent of online banking systems, supports 80 percent of in-person credit card transactions, and handles 95 percent of ATM transactions. It also underpins many government systems, from Social Security to the IRS to services run by most states. One rough estimate puts the annual cost of COBOL’s inefficiencies to the US GDP at around $105 billion. All those Hollywood people can learn to code.....Cobol.

The organization, Voter Protection Corps, is combining volunteers who flag election content with attorneys who review posts and help prepare requests for platforms to take them down.
Its September 8 recruitment notice spells out why it wants lawyers involved: “lending legal credibility to formal removal requests.” That creates an organized route from a volunteer flagging a post to an attorney helping seek its removal. The group’s broader plan calls for making monitoring a permanent part of election operations, alongside networks that challenge anticipated claims before voters encounter them.

Oh, and don't forget that Pinochet started out as a leftist military officer. So when he did a coup against Allende the shift was decidedly lateral.
At first Pinochet's economic policy was about the same as Allende's and was coming up with more Allende results. Unlike Allende, Pinochet was willing to correct course. Posted by: Yyrog the Sorceror at October 27, 2026 10:59 AM (yYROg) 310

Posted by: Miley, okravangelist at October 27, 2026 12:15 PM (w6EFb) The Morning Report — 10/27 /26
After elections held earlier this month, Brazil looked like it could swing to the right and away from a fourth term for its little communist dictator, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Lula's opponent, Flávio Bolsonaro, son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, achieved far more of the vote than expected. However, neither candidate received enough to avoid a runoff. For many of us here in the United States, it reeked of 2020. An incumbent who trailed in the first round staged a late surge to claim victory after a last-minute judicial intervention extended voting hours, transport disruptions appeared in areas favorable to the eventual winner, and the losing candidate immediately refused to concede while alleging the rules had been changed midstream. Several Spanish-speaking media outlets have quoted Donald Trump as saying it was like something out of the "Joe Biden playbook," but I haven't been able to confirm that quote myself, though he wouldn't be wrong. It's also giving me 2024 Nicolás Maduro vibes.Among some of President Trump's greatest accomplishments has been his ability to somehow inspire and rally the people of Latin America to rally to the cause of true small "d" democratic reform and most shockingly remove or at least neutralize the malign cancerous influence of tyrannical socialism with the election of individuals from Nayib Bukele in El Salvador and Javier Milei in Argentina. Meanwhile, here at home over the past several years the cancer of Socialism seems to have somehow (thank you American Academia primarily) garnered growing and loud support not just from the young and malleable but far too many older folks who should know better yet don't. And as we here have reported, it's not just about the freebies, it's about utterly crushing anyone who opposes the Democrat Left's power-mad delusions of their right to remake American society but destroying it. We've discussed at length the recent mad ravings of fiends like Elissa Slotkin, the low-rent dullard cross between Imelda Marcos and Bloody Mary with a soupçon of Winnie Mandela for flavor. The filthy slag who desires the prosecution/persecution of anyone who works for President Trump as a means of disincentivizing and crippling the careers of anyone seeking a career who also has aspirations to preserve protect and defend the American way of life contra the Democrat/Leftist enterprise to eradicate it. And with that in mind, we have this latest assault on liberty bubbling up from the depths of hell. If anyone had any doubt about the Democratic Party’s plans to shut down the present renaissance in space that is employing millions and generating billions in wealth, you need only listen to Robert Reich, former secretary of labor during the Clinton administration, in this short video of comments he made during a recent podcast. Reich begins his rant by demanding the government “defund” Musk and that SpaceX and Starlink should be “nationalized”, claiming absurdly that this should happen because 75% of Musk’s wealth comes from taxpayers buying Starlink. So what? That’s exactly what freedom and capitalism is about. . . This is pure evil, based on pure envy based on pure hate. It also illustrates the dark times the country will face should the voters choose the Democrat Party in next week’s election. They are not hiding their envy and hate any longer in euphemisms. They are making it very plain, in numerous different venues, that they plan to confiscate the property of conservatives, imprison them, and even shoot them if they get the chance.Well, as in Brazil "the voters" may not actually get to choose a damn thing. Of course it depends on who is considered a voter and more importantly BY WHOM?! Federal prosecutors said Monday that investigators have identified 405 people they believe are not U.S. citizens who voted in Washington state elections, casting more than 1,500 ballots over multiple elections.Multiply that figure many times over in multiple if not every state in the Union and shit is going to get real, real quick. As I've stated many times over, there is no way that Michigan's Dana Nessel, Jocelyn Benson and Wretched Whitmer are not going to do all they can to drag El-Sayed's suicide-belt supported ass over the finish line first. They did it in 2020 with Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants by miraculously tampering with the election to steal the crucial swing state from Trump. Horrid as those harridans were and are, that their crime was not overturned reflects on our equally corrupt judicial system that will not lift a finger if/when it happens again this Tuesday. And speaking of Nessel, apologies in advance for this repulsiveness: Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel had briefly held the line on refusing to back Abdul El-Sayed. Then she announced that Jews had to vote for him even if they all died because some things were more important. “We have a moral imperative to place the needs of the world above even our own self-interest and, yes, even our own survival,” Nessel told Jewish Democrats. Those “needs of the world” required Jews to vote for Democrats, including presumably El-Sayed, who had made excuses for a Muslim terrorist attack against Jewish children in the preschool of a Michigan Temple. Many Jewish Democrats feel they “must choose between our faith and our party,” she said, and she then argued in favor of choosing faith in the Democrat Party over faith in Judaism.Nessel is a sloppy drunken, self-gassing spokes-courveh for new and improved Zyklon CDEF & G!!!! With Jews like her who needs the Einsatzgruppen or Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. . . or the Spanish Inquisition (thank you and fuck you España!) On that revolting excrement, as well as the sea of detritus comprising the majority of today's links, I nevertheless bid you all to —VOTE EARLY & OFTEN — and . . .have a good day.

Democrat Robert Reich demands SpaceX be nationalized; attacks Musk
Uh.. there is a nationalized space agency: NASA And they can't do shit because they followed all of your advice and went DEI, and forgot their mission, punished achievement and rewarded sloth, waste and bureaucracy with a fat pension for doing nothing but attending meetings around the globe and giving our competitors whatever they wanted included at US Taxpayer cost; became a corporate welfare system, a place to park deadbeats and sinecures, had zero accountability, zero expectations and zero aspirations. The Nationalized space program became so demoralized and neutered that for generations after landing on the moon, all they could do is blow up and crash shuttles, NASA couldn't even return to the ISS and we had to humbly turn to Putin and his gas station with nukes to be the space taxi because the US couldn't even do that anymore. if the goal is to become an embarrassment and shame, then Reich is our Central Planner.

The supporters of Bolsanaro stormed the assembly in Brasilia after the loss in 2021 just as happened in D.C. a little over a year earlier.
A lot of those people were arrested and thrown in jail, just like here. I'm not sure if the Brazilian right is prepared to go up against the state when Lula has Bolsanaro Jr.'s passport taken as soon as the election is over. That's sending a signal they aren't going to play nice if things get out of hand. It's going to be interesting watching how this goes over the next few months, and what comes out about the election and whether or not Flavio can get it annulled (I extremely doubt it).

If the Brazilian military stays in the barracks, our military is not able to change the situation in Brazil. Many of our deployable units are positioning into attack formation off of Iran. We could help the military to right Brazil, but not act on our own. We have no ability as a country to use secret armies or even stealth killers to change this. The CIA action officers have quite uncertain loyalties and questionable effectiveness. Our best Special Forces are prepping for SAR in Iran. We can pound Brazil economically, and this is happening on it's own. Posted by: NaCly Dog at October 27, 2026 07:23 AM (u82oZ) Posted by: Community Notes at October 27, 2026 07:23 AM (U4c/V) 47

We have a moral imperative to place the needs of the world above even our own self-interest and, yes, even our own survival
------ I've been thinking about this retarded statement quite a bit since the horrid shrike said it. 1.) Nobody's needs, not even Muslims', are met by common cause of Americans with Muslims. 2.) Nobody's has ever had a moral imperative to die for their enemies. 3.) America is perhaps unique in the regard that it owes the rest of the world ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Every single alliance this country has was formed because those countries came to us, hat in hand. Not the other way around. They all owe us, and they no longer pay up. The current Iran imbroglio illustrates this neatly. Israel was the only one of our "friends" who showed up to the party. This wretched bitch talks like she's some kind of mafia loanshark showing up at the door with a lead pipe, to collect a debt that never existed.

Yeah, I think we can walk carefully on the Brazil situation.
If evidence comes out of a massive operation to cheat along with the supreme court judge intervening like he did, the Brazilian people might take care of things on their own. Bolsanaro's party & coalition will be in the majority in the next legislature, I believe, so an impeachment and conviction of Lula is not out of the question at some point. They aren't shy about doing it, either. The legislature impeached Presidente Dilma Rousseff and removed her from office in 2016, and she was Lula's 60s communist secretary, and hand-picked successor.

Remember when the Cavendish variety was supposed to be wiped out by the Panama Disease? Apparently the dangerous strain is the TR4 and targeted that one variety, which is the primary one enjoyed in the US. Because of the commercial demand for uniformity, the Cavendish variety is a monoculture propagated as clones making them genetically identical — ergo the ease in how one strain can take out an entire variety. Hopefully, they will return to the Gros Michel ("Big Mike") which tasted better than that dreck in the stores now and avoid a scarcity problem.

The regime change playbook is what was used here in 2020, in Brazil on Sunday and will be attempted here again after the midterms. There is a worldwide globalist regime change movement that is attacking elections around the world. The tactics change based on local conditions but the goal is always the same, take down nationalist favoring leaders and install socialists/communists. It's not a conspiracy theory, it's a fact.

She went to college, got a degree, became a Democrat politician. I mean, what other kind of moral authority do you need other than those bona fides?
Lets unpackage this: "She went to seminary, got ordained became a priest..." This seems to be same pattern of Screwtape as he justifies why he is better than Paxton for US Senate. If the Moral Authority is the Democrat Party Machine, then she is under the authority of the Party Elders who are ensconced by their Globalist Masters who are pretty much all demonically possessed. Why she couldn't say: "The WEF requires that you die—ask no further questions" and get the same explanation that a virgin being sacrificed and flung into a volcano gets when it hasn't rained in a while.

Some of the teachers were crying recently when the cops came to collect kids from the school after their parents got rolled by ICE raids one day.

We used to keep some cat food outside in a bowl so the cat didn’t have to come in all the time in the summer, but we had to constantly refill it. Finally noticed that at least one racoon was there a lot - maybe a possum or two at night.
So I came out the back door one afternoon while it was still light out, and there was a big one chowing down. I thought he’d be scared of me like most wild things so I stepped towards him; but he just stood up on his hind legs, hands at his sides, and looked straight at me with a toothy snarl. I could almost hear him saying “you want a piece of me? You want a piece of me?” I just said “ok then the bowl’s yours, don’t mind me” and beat a hasty retreat.

Caught it and I went out to look at it in the cage and thought how cute it looked.. Got closer and it went berserk... Glad it was in the cage.... Husband took it 20 miles away to a new home in the woods.... Posted by: It's me donna at October 27, 2026 08:50 AM (+gK6I) 190

Wise decision. I was standing in my driveway last Friday afternoon around 4 helping the HVAC load some tools into his van when we heard some rustling and weird growling sounds. My yard slopes from east to west and when we came out from behind the van we saw a big fat raccoon come stumbling out of the woods on the east side of the yard and proceed to walk backwards and tumble his way across the yard. He's stop briefly to his and growl at us and the roll over or continue his drunken backwards walk. He was either rabid which is pretty common in raccoons or hammered on something. He eventually fell backwards off the wall on the left side of the yard and disappeared into the woods. The only thing missing was Yakkity Sax.

If I'm motivated, and the cats are out of the way, I'll take my Ruger SR-22 fitted with a can with me and pop the raccoons from a chair on the porch.
Only one died on the porch... great head shot, but the others that get winged take off. Let nature take its course. Figure at least one or two are "vets."

I don't know if it's possible to stuff ballot boxes in Brazil.
They use an electronic voting system that is standard across the country and is administered by a juridical unit called the Electoral Justice system. The EJS is controlled by the TSE (Superior Electoral Court). Their voting machines aren't capable of an internet connection so they'd have to corrupt each machine manually to add/change votes on them. I guess anything is possible, but it's not as easy as marking a bunch of ballots and putting them in the box. Posted by: SpeakingOf at October 27, 2026 08:52 AM (6ydKt) 195

Exactly, Salty. This is a global movement not a series of unrelated events. The west was flooded with 3rd world migrants while borders seemed to evaporate at the same time not because of some cosmic coincidence. It's a plan. Trump sealed the borders and stopped the flood in a long weekend. Others could too but they choose not to. The lie and do nothing just like Biden did. This is what globalist groups like the UN and the WEF have been preaching for years. And it requires like minded, far left leaders. The rush to congratulate winners of corrupt elections because that gives them international legitimacy. Who are we to question the election when the world agrees Lula won?

On that story about "What Men Are Good For," the comment section has a long quote from Ayn Rand about feminine women and hero-worship that reads as if it were something from Robert Heinlein:
". . . [Hero-worship] does not mean that there is a romantic or sexual intention in her attitude toward all men; quite the contrary: the higher her view of masculinity, the more severely demanding her standards. It means that she never loses the awareness of her own sexual identity and theirs. It means that a properly feminine woman does not treat men as if she were their pal, sister, mother -- or leader.” Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at October 27, 2026 08:58 AM (wzUl9) 220

Recently read raccoons are significantly reducing the population of invasive Burmese pythons in the Everglades. Good.

According to an Oct. 14 report from the Office of the Comptroller of Currency, a federal bureau within the U.S. Treasury Department that regulates the nation’s banks, the SPLC’s bigot-flagging operations were politically influencing debanking decisions at major financial institutions across the country, including PNC Bank, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and TD Bank.
The 47-page report said the SPLC played a key role in the debanking of, as well as the denial of financial services to, conservative clients wanting to support Christian groups or individuals financially. Posted by: SMOD at October 27, 2026 09:17 AM (RHGPo) 285

One summer we had horrible gully whumpers and subsequent flooding where it doesn’t ordinarily. Not very often. I heard a ruckus about 2 in the morning in the front yard. About 4 or 5 absolutely humongous Racoons had emerged from the storm sewer in the street. I had no idea they could get that large, it was absurd.

194 I don't know if it's possible to stuff ballot boxes in Brazil.
They use an electronic voting system that is standard across the country and is administered by a juridical unit called the Electoral Justice system. The EJS is controlled by the TSE (Superior Electoral Court). Their voting machines aren't capable of an internet connection so they'd have to corrupt each machine manually to add/change votes on them. I guess anything is possible, but it's not as easy as marking a bunch of ballots and putting them in the box.

"Reich begins his rant by demanding the government “defund” Musk..." Served as the 22nd U.S. Secretary of Labor from January 22, 1993, to January 10, 1997, during the first term of President Bill Clinton. As per AI, "His tenure was defined by his passionate advocacy for the American working class, a focus on education and job retraining, and his eventual frustration with the administration's pivot toward fiscal conservatism and corporate interests." All in all, he was a socialism pushing little POS with his oft, legally unsupportable warfare on many businesses, and through the union pushing, creative evidence sub-agencies such as OSHA. Believe it or not, he won awards for being one of the most effective Cabinet members of the late 20th century! Reportedly, he spearheaded the FLMA, raised minimum wages, and strengthened the financial health and enforcement capabilities of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation ...a Federal agency of the U.S. Labor Department that headed into bankruptcy 25 years later!

How Biden Inc. phrased it: Congressional Democrats Saved More Than 1,837,500 Pensions, Protected Nearly 11,000 Businesses In part, "WASHINGTON – To date, Congressional Democrats’ historic pension relief in the American Rescue Plan Act has saved 1,837,518 workers’ and retirees’ pensions and protected an estimated 10,933 businesses from being at risk of closing their doors. The multiemployer pension crisis threatened to strip millions of workers and retirees of the pensions they earned, and jeopardized tens of thousands of businesses and jobs." In response, the American Rescue Plan Act created a Special Financial Assistance (SFA) Program to avert the immediate crisis threatening the retirement security of American workers, retirees, and their families. This solution was supported by a diverse group of stakeholders, including the AFL-CIO, AARP, the United States Chamber of Commerce, UPS, and scores of other employers...

And so, thanks to decades of severely underfunded pension benefits - not accidental - and the massive bailouts we're left with another huge trap:
>To help offset the massive price tag of the multiemployer bailout under strict Senate budget reconciliation rules, the ARP allowed corporations running "single-employer plans" to stretch out their underfunding catch-up timelines from 7 years to 15 years. >The ARP did not mandate structural adjustments to how union pension funds calculate liabilities or invest their funds. Critics note this perversely increased the long-term risk of defaults in the single-employer system to score a short-term tax accounting gimmick. >For the first time in history, the federal government used general taxpayer money to cover private, multiemployer pension shortfalls. Financial purists argue this created a "moral hazard" by signaling to underfunded funds that the government will step in and write a check if things get bad enough. --- >Socialist Worker Org: Discussing Sanders in my union March 31, 2016 30 years from Reich to now.

The 8.5-inch Super Retina XDR display (up from 8.3 inches) moves on from the IPS technology of the last-gen device to adopt OLED. That means dapper blacks and a much higher peak brightness—1,200 nits versus just 500 nits for the previous mini. It can also manage 1-nit minimum brightness so as not to sear your retinas in a dark room. There will also be a nano-textured matte display option.
I don't know about you guys, but when I'm thinking about OLED it's the dapper blacks that immediately impress me the most. There's nothing like a well dressed color to make a display more classy. Posted by: SpeakingOf at October 27, 2026 04:34 AM (6ydKt) 11

It also acts as a force multiplier for an unintelligent, unfocused project lead. Similarly: mikeski mentioned zombie Kurt von Hammerstein-Equord on the ONT, who had written this matrix: I distinguish four types. There are clever, hardworking, stupid, and lazy officers. Usually two characteristics are combined. Some are clever and hardworking; their place is the General Staff. The next ones are stupid and lazy; they make up 90 percent of every army and are suited to routine duties. Anyone who is both clever and lazy is qualified for the highest leadership duties, because he possesses the mental clarity and strength of nerve necessary for difficult decisions. One must beware of anyone who is both stupid and hardworking; he must not be entrusted with any responsibility because he will always only cause damage.

27 An odd question for Pixy, I guess...
What's the best laptop to buy off Amazon? Posted by: 6eyes at October 27, 2026 05:32 AM (n/le7) I'm not Pixy, but I'll take a stab at it. What are you looking to do with your laptop? That question will help answer your question as there are different laptops made for different purposes and the more purposes you have for it, the more expensive it will be. A good all-arounder for internet browsing, video watching, emails, word processors, and other light tasks is an Apple Macbook Neo or Air, but if you would rather have Windows instead of MacOs that would make a difference. For Windows; HP, Dell and Lenovo all make perfectly fine laptops in various configurations and pricing, and a lot of them are available on Amazon. Microsoft Surface laptops are also generally well-rounded, well-made, laptops but they aren't cheap. Posted by: SpeakingOf at October 27, 2026 06:11 AM (6ydKt) 42

The Sandpipers recorded on A & M Records -- Herb Alpert's label, named for its two founders, Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss. They signed a lot of very good-to-great acts: The Carpenters, Burt Bacharach, Stealers Wheel, Captain and Tennille, and Quincy Jones were just a few. It was once the world's largest independent record company.
The first albums I ever bought were Tijuana Brass albums. On the record liner inside, A & M would list other artists on their label with little pics of their album covers. I recall Claudine Longet was once one of their people. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at October 27, 2026 06:17 AM (wzUl9) 47

I dreamed I made a quick visit before work hours to my old office, the one I had from '02-'18. It seemed much larger with so much of the furniture removed. One bookcase remained, and I scored a few things, like two early (pre-movie) paperbacks of From Russia With Love and a book on aerobics I didn't have. Faculty and grad students were coming into the room as I prepared to leave, and I had an explanation ready -- but nobody seemed to notice me, as if I were a ghost. I slid out unchallenged.
Down the stairs (wider than in reality) I went, and showed my haul to a co-worker. Somehow the FRWL books had morphed into just one, a tattered copy of Thunderball, my least favorite Bond novel.

When I took my certificate in programming and analysis, the school trained its students in COBOL. Never used it in the field, though.
The instructor had told us that if you could write a coherent sentence or paragraph in English, you could probably be taught to write a functional COBOL program. Before going after that certification, I'd been an English major as an undergrad and my master's was in library science. COBOL was easier to pick up than I'd thought it would be. I'd think if they really want the programmers, they could train them to work in the language. How hard maintaining those systems would be probably depends on how well the documentation had been kept up. Posted by: Just Some Guy at October 27, 2026 06:51 AM (q3u5l) 72

Posted by: jim (in Kalifornia) at October 27, 2026 04:35 AM (l3cgK) Guantanamo Bay reminded me of a fascinating story in HA yesterday; Cuba’s government has effectively collapsed without a fight. Oh they still mostly control Havana and what’s left of the armed forces, but besides that most functions have stopped. Food distribution and ration cards? Just stopped. Army and police have no fuel for transport and no electricity like everyone else, so the few that still show up for work do very little. But there’s still no organized opposition because the people have no power, no food, no communications. Everything in Cuba is simply collapsing in slow motion, and everyone capable of doing something to stop it has left. Posted by: Tom Servo at October 27, 2026 06:53 AM (fYoho) 74

And that's the worst part. You get used to the people, the service is great and suddenly it's gone. Yes, I can order online but once in a while I don't mind interacting with people.

@72/Wolfus: "... She wants a zoo, a university so she can attend lectures, some museums, etc. I want less traffic and fewer people in general."
She is urban. You are rural. What you need is a small community 20 miles outside of a larger one so she's within easy driving distance of all the things she likes, while you're insulated from all the things you don't.

@Wolfus - A suggestion before I dash out the door - Maybe take a look at Liberty, MO. It is (or was) basically on the north-east corner just outside Kansas City Missouri. Far enough away to still feel small-ish, but you had all of KCMO and KCK within an hour's drive.
Please note: My data is 24 years out of date, KCMO may have expanded a lot since then, and Liberty may not be what it once was. I liked it, nice little town, considered moving there from where I was in KCMO near Gladstone. Posted by: Grumpy and Recalcitrant, a Moron behind enemy lines at October 27, 2026 06:59 AM (O7YUW) 78
Joplin, MO, looks like it would suit me, but it may be too small for her: She wants a zoo, a university so she can attend lectures, some museums, etc. I want less traffic and fewer people in general.
Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at October 27, 2026 06:52 AM (wzUl9) My two cents. If you want that in Missouri, moove to the Kansas City area. I would suggest Warrensburg or Sedalia. Posted by: tubal at October 27, 2026 06:59 AM (Gqar8) 79
Wolfus,
There are a couple of colleges in and not too far from Joplin -- whether they host lectures I don't know. Closest zoo I know of is probably Wichita, about 2-3 hours away. You would have The Book Guy's shop for quite a few of your used book needs. If you wind up there, let me know; I'm a little over an hour from there and get into town from time to time.

I noticed mention often in the last several days of the Insurrection Act here recently, and how its invocation is actually a goal of the usual suspects secret plans. Maybe, but without regard to that I keep seeing reference that the National Guard cannot be deployed except by request of the state governor.
I believe this to be incorrect. Ordinarily this is true, federalizing the NG is done at the request of state governors for disaster relief. A state of Insurrection is completely new territory. President Eisenhower, for example, played his hand during the 1950s. Mississippi or someplace like that intended to defy racial integration of their schools and Gov. Faubus used their National Guard to enforce that. Ike simply federalized the NG troops and further called in the 101st iirc. My only point here is the governors can find themselves in deep shit if they are not careful. Invoking the Insurrection Act is serious business, they can “disappear” individuals, there is no right to an attorney or any of the ordinary constitutional rights we are accustomed. They lock you in a cell somewhere, and that, as they say, is that. Posted by: Common Tater at October 26, 2026 10:36 PM (aNeGK) 80

People seem to be falling off mountains more with selfies. Which I don't take as it is beneath me. Dude and I did try once from our hotel balcony in Vienna, to get the St. Stephens cathedral spire behind us. Many shots later of me not laughing we got a photo and no one died. It was close and the photos were retarded.
We visited the Grand Canyon when sons were in junior high. Elder son was in front of the sign when a tour group of Japs invaded off a bus and nearly knocked him off the site, over 4' away, in their excitement. I grabbed him. Now I would pick up a little shrimp person (no offense to Jap Morons), twirl her around like a shot put, and chuck her off the edge. I was calmer then. I almost got in trouble with husband/son laughing at similar weridos taking the exact same photo of the same people at the Roman Baths in Bath England. It was tres stoopit. Different cameras, same shot. I started snickering and got elbowed by the dude and son scowled. I was not that obvious! jeez I can't help it if I mock everyone else because I'm perfect.

There’s a pretty lengthy tome about Death at Grand Canyon. A surprising number of people have been killed by taking selfies at the edge and losing their footing. Oftentimes climbing over barriers or fences intended to prevent this sort of thing from happening.

One fellow would ride his bicycle from Flagstaff once a week or so, and collect coinage from a spot where tourists threw it for “good luck”, it was a very exposed spot on the canyon ledge.

The wedding venue, Posey Meadows (what a ghey name) had seven months to fill that day for another wedding after the fiance died.
It's not like he dropped dead the day prior! I will take the opposing view of the fekin' contract as I know there are wait lists for these venues. Some people cancel for reasons other than death. I think a month's notice is plenty of time. My own botanical garden wedding came within a week of accidently being cancelled (my mother told me much this as I was 1000mi away). She happened to stop by to check it out and we were not on the books. I assume she stayed calm and didn't threaten anyone...but there was a wait list and some bride got in then she got out quickly and had to find another day. I would bless the mystery bride's heart but it was not my problem. This date/time was secured 8mo prior with a payment to secure it. We had people flying from many directions to attend. It would have finished us all off if we all arrived to another wedding. Seven months with a dead fiance would surely give them time to find another bride and groom! No I don't know the full story. Maybe she threatened jihad rudely (like I would have). Still, it ain't right.

An exposed section of mountainside refers to a visible area of a mountain slope where the natural surface cover—such as vegetation, soil, or snow—has been removed or is absent, revealing the underlying rock, soil, or geological layers. This can occur naturally through erosion, weathering, or avalanches, or be exposed by human activity like mining, road construction, or trail building

---- Every single one of them should have been marched out to a desolate field, and then told... "You can go home now. You can no longer represent our church that has held a THOUSAND meetings with stone-cold communists." But nothing will happen. Catholics don't hold their popes (lower case intentional) or their administrators accountable. IF the "Pope" said tomorrow "All Catholics should vote for Islamic candidates everywhere" most of the "faithful" would nod their head and then either quietly commit heresy or do what they were told. Every single Catholic "leader" should be asked this simple question: Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life? Its a "Yes/No" question. Any official who stalls answering should be marched out to a desolate field...

Regarding colleges and angry parents...
Fat and disgusting Michael Moore did his Ramen noodle and tidey whities tour of universities in 2004. He was coming to UF and FSU, and both universities heard from me. We were paying partial tuition and renting apts for both boys. I debated going to hear the fat toad myself and mocking loudly, but was working. As it turned out, the kids would go collect their noodles and be too stoned to vote as turnout for college kids he spoke to was bad, and GWB the dog painter got elected again. UF called me from the preznit's office expressing their sorrow et all and yada that it came from a special student fund vs tuition or state $, cause I was mad. She possibly was lying but it pacified me. FSU called and said it came from student fund and that a conservative speaker would also have a platform. This pacified me much better, and they were nicer, as I liked FSU the best anyway. Has Michael Moore reared his head from a bag of Flamin' Hot Cheetos strapped to his jowls recently? I read an hilarious spoof of him and the guns of K-Mart. I was totally bummed out it was a parody and not real. Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at October 26, 2026 11:26 PM (hzuYO) 185

Woot! I made it bark.
Success with the little Honda generator. Replaced the factory "spark unit" with a 4-pin HEI module from my parts stash. Minor rewiring was needed. Hooked it up, applied 12 volts from a small AGM battery. Pulled starter rope. Nice fat spark at plug, woohoo! Assembled it a bit more. Squirted brake cleaner into air intake. Pulled cord numerous times. No joy. Gave it a couple of shots of Quick Start fluid, pulled cord, Brrrrrp!. Ran about 4 seconds, but it did indeed run. Sounded a little bit strangled; the spark arrestor in the muffler could be clogged. Anyway, I shall clean out the muffler, mend the gashed fuel tank, and fully assemble, and try running it for real. And now I know for certain the "spark unit" was faulty, because all the other original components of the ignition system are in place, and working.

I distinguish four types. There are clever, hardworking, stupid, and lazy officers. Usually two characteristics are combined. Some are clever and hardworking; their place is the General Staff. The next ones are stupid and lazy; they make up 90 percent of every army and are suited to routine duties. Anyone who is both clever and lazy is qualified for the highest leadership duties, because he possesses the mental clarity and strength of nerve necessary for difficult decisions. One must beware of anyone who is both stupid and hardworking; he must not be entrusted with any responsibility because he will always only cause damage.

I am going to post this again since a lot of people don't understand how mail-in-voting works:
In Oregon, we have 800,000 people on the voter rolls who are ineligible to vote because they are dead, illegal or don't live in Oregon anymore. Ballots are printed for everyone on the list of names. The ballots that have nowhere else to go are distributed to DNC operatives to be filled out for the dem candidates. If you had to wait in line and vote in person you would be exhausted and get caught after a couple of votes. But if you are at party full of blue haired drunken harpies, you could fill out 50,000 a night for several nights. Oregon was a pretty solid red state until 1987 when we were the first state to have vote by mail and since then, the Republican candidate hasn't had a chance because the dems always have a stockpile of illegal votes.

There are Orthodox Presbyterians and a new one I can't remember the name of that broke off from PCUSA. Thirty couples left the church in FL the day after the vote (which was probably rigged).

So I haven't seen this stuff in my life while he insists on it strongly. Meh. Posted by: Nerd Herd at October 26, 2026 11:59 PM (NZPfR) I don't really have an opinion on Vox Day himself beyond thinking he seemed not worth investing a lot of time in (like most internet personalities). I could be wrong, as I admittedly haven't invested a lot of time in his writings. But dating is about meeting needs and wants. Guys should unapologetically pursue theirs. You can be sure the fairer sex is doing so, without apology. More than one 'ette here has commented in the past about saying yes to dates only because they were broke and wanted to eat out. There's no reason men should settle for that behavior over multiple dates (because that's not what they are looking for).

Carlo Cipolla had the basic laws of human stupidity, and he divided people into four classes based on whether they act to harm or help themselves and others.
The Intelligent who act to benefit both, the Bandit who act to benefit self, and harm others, the Helpless who harm self, benefit others, and the Stupid who harm everyone. He argus the Stupid are the most dangerous group because their irrational and unpredictable actions are impossible to defend against rationally, often causing disproportionate societal damage.

@227...here in the Rocky Mountains we see (mostly young guys) killed every summer from one misstep. Experienced climbers and rookies. One mistake or loose rock.
Some climb the ridges of entire mountain ranges in their quest for the ultimate adrenaline rush. Some "only" fall about 20ft vs over 900 with a head injury death. I hope she hit a rock and was unconsious before she hit bottom. Falls can be deadly from 6 feet. I knew a college friend of our sons who fell on her back from 12' and is a paraplegic after two burst thoracic fractures with spinal cord impingement. I look at falls from mountain climbers as they know the risk and take the chances. Most make it and some don't. Same with avalanches here in the back country skiers. A huge dump of snow and there are many warnings. Then we hear the helicopters once the body is found. Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at October 27, 2026 12:22 AM (hzuYO) 244

As it is, since 1957, the inch is *exactly* 2.54 cm, no more digits at all. The 1957 International Yard and Pound Agreement set the yard exactly equal to .9144 m, which means the foot is .3048 m, and an inch thus 0.0254 m. And in that 1957 agreement lies the difference between the old US Survey Foot and the International Foot, or just the foot. Back in 1893, the Mendenhall Order was issued, which defined the foot and pound in terms of the meter and kilogram. The reason was the reference standards we had for both were deemed unfit for use. The Mendenhall Order defined the foot as 1200/3937 meter, which means an inch was "about" 2.54000508001 cm. Anyway, that's the difference with the Survey foot. That was deprecated just a couple years ago or so -- it caused just too much confusion. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at October 27, 2026 12:35 AM (w6EFb) 256

Since 1957, there were two redefinitions of the meter. The first in 1960, redefined in terms of a certain wavelength of light, a Kr-86 transition. Then in 1983, it was defined in terms of the speed of light. The speed of light became defined to be an exact number, meaning the meter was thus a light-time. Both of those would have every so slightly, way out in some far decimal place, changed the length of the foot, but no enough to affect any precision measurements since.

Yo, cream puff, I dated rarely from HS to college as this was my choice. No meal would have changed anything. A concert in HS to meet BB King did not tempt me as I didn't like the guy, know him and my parents would not let me as it was hours away and I was 16yrs old.
I dated a few doctors in college and married an orderly who bought mostly beer to our evenings. Or he cooked. So I am unsure where you are getting this attitude from ettes. I was a poor college student, working to pay my rent (tuition paid by parents).

Oregon was a pretty solid red state until 1987 when we were the first state to have vote by mail and since then, the Republican candidate hasn't had a chance because the dems always have a stockpile of illegal votes.
Posted by: Lemmiwinks ------ Also, since Vote by Mail, the percentage of Bond Measures (which increase taxes) passing has gone from 44%to over 90%. The fact that votes are no longer counted at local precincts by volunteers and then just tabulated and added at the county election center, and instead counted by county employees, who's fellow AFCME union members' jobs depend on it has nothing to do with this change.

Baby boy stopped his tantrum like turning off a faucet. Never again. At 7yrs I am unsure why, but I'd do the above and tell him goodnight, I love you, I have to work tomorrow and need my sleep.

That shows the hornet's nest that can be stirred up by redefining units. As the precision of existing measurements of standard things gets better and better, the slightest change can really screw up.

You barfed out a nasty accusation on us ('ettes) and won't back down or apologize for it.
That's you and nurse's odd read on it. I offered no moral judgment at all. I said something that is absolutely true: women in general, and some 'ettes, based on their own damned say-so, go out on/have gone out on dates purely because it was a night/meal out, without any real interest in the guy who asked them. My point wasn't a moral one at all. It's that everyone is pursuing their own dating agendas based on their own needs and wants, and men have nothing to apologize for in not taking women who show no interest in them on multiple dates. This is all pretty obvious to anyone reading the comments I referenced in context. But someone did not do that, and used an otherwise uncontroversial comment as an occasion for venting their own spleen.

Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at October 27, 2026 01:35 AM (w6EFb) When I took physics in high school and university, we worked in mks units, meter, kilogram, second.

Here's the hilarious thing. I went to the government online site and they have a toll free number to report a rat siting. They guarantee immediate response to the area and no more than 24 hour response to the location on weekends.
By God, I think we've actually discovered a government program that works well and efficiently. This very well could be a sign of the Apocalypse. Posted by: Orson That's the first sign, since the rat control program has been around since 1950. The second sign was the END of a government handout program. That was in 2020, when the death of Irene Triplett, the last pensioner on the Civil War Pension Program, effectively brought that program to an end. There are no more CW veterans nor disabled children of CW veterans left, so no one can ever collect again, even if the law is still on the books.

Lotion, I looked at the 3 comments. I couldn't read what this guy said as I'm not going to register for men's sexual problems after being married 47yrs to the husband of my youth.
Secondly, I think this is a misunderstanding of you saying any woman on this blog are like that. The ones I recognize. I have not read anything like this of them using men for a dinner, even when poor college students. I lived on cheeseburgers in the hospital cafeteria. I had doctors take me to dinner, once, because in one case he was a resident and the surgeon he was working with was trying his best to mend my broken heart from a guy he operated on who died months prior. I was nice to him but we had nothing in common. The second I'd not date again due to him not being yet divorced. You are basically saying we collectively used men for dinners, knowing that it was a one and done for a meal. I can't recall anyone here saying this, implying this, or being this needy or desperate. This was taken out of context. Fine to blame some women whom you might have met. I can't think of anyone I knew when I was a coed who would do this, but that's my story. I think you should apologize as that's what I would do. Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at October 27, 2026 01:49 AM (hzuYO) 331
>> Why SI is based on cgs units is a mystery to me
There may be some confusion on terminology here. SI *is* kg, meter, second (and ampere, etc). CGS is a separate system, centimeter, gram, second. There are electrical units, several in fact, that are still sometimes used, but these usually only in theoretical, classroom EM physics contexts. The Pa is one N/m^2. The CGS unit of pressure is one dyne/cm^2, and looking up the arcane name for it, that's a "barye".

I looked it up to make sure I had it straight. 1 bar is defined to be 100 kPa exactly, and so a mbar is 100 Pa, or 1 hPa.

Damnit, mikeski. Now I have to read about this Irene Triplett.
Posted by: scampydog Her dad, Mose, is the interesting one. He fought for both sides in the Civil War (south first, north second), originally enlisting at the age of 16. Mose married Irene's mom when he was 78 and she was 29. Irene was born when they were 83 and 34. They had 5 kids, but only 2 survived childhood. Based on that age gap, Mose and Irene's younger brother Everette are likely direct ancestors of The Paolo. Irene was born in 1930, 65 years after the CW, and lived to the age of 90, which is how a two-generation pension program, for soldiers and their disabled children, continued for 155 years after the end of the war.

I just went down the rabbit hole of that 2019 SI(MKS) redefinitions. It was a major change, conceptually. The kilogram is no longer "that hunk of metal in Paris". They did this by defining Planck's constant. The meter and kilogram are now defined entirely in terms of c, h, and the second. The Kibble or watt balance is the precision device that allows for this to be done. The also redefined electric charge, the Coulomb. It used to be the Ampere was fundamental (defined as the current that produced a certain force). Now, the Coulomb is defined in terms of the electron charge. I wondered how they accomplished that. It's much easier to circulate charge than separate it (and keep it separated to high stability). Well, advances in instrument precision exploiting some quantum effects now allow you to basically know that a given current is so many electrons per second. Not, directly, but via those quantum relations. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at October 27, 2026 02:28 AM (w6EFb) 347

Now, while these redefinitions are very satisfying to physicists and metrologists as it relies on very fundamental processes of nature, it does rely heavily on technology. You need the means to make measurements to very high precision. The current definitions would be useless in the 19th century -- there would be no way they could get close to the precision required -- and really for most of the 20th century.

This genuinely surprised me. The home LEGO Kibble Balance: https://t.ly/Wvxay You can do that for relatively little cost. The problem however, is you need to know you local value of 'g', which you can ballpark as 9.8 m/s^2. But it illustrates weighing something with electrical measurements alone. Now, in a multimillion dollar lab, this concept allows you to determine the mass of something to ridiculous precision knowing on the second (from an atomic clock).

The Duchess of Sussex is reportedly heading to Australia to take a starring role on one of the country’s most popular television shows.
Meghan, 45, is expected to spend weeks in Melbourne next year after reportedly signing on to host the next season of Junior MasterChef Australia. Meghan made a surprise guest appearance on MasterChef Australia earlier this year. The children’s version is understood to be returning six years after it last aired, with Meghan slated to appear alongside MasterChef Australia judge Poh Ling Yeow. A source close to the production said the duchess would play a key hosting role on the series, which is expected to film in Melbourne over several weeks in early to mid-2027, according to news.com.au. It is thought that Prince Harry Markle and the couple’s two children, Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, could join her during the production, although no firm plans have been confirmed.

Had to carry a pelican once, weighed about ten pounds. I was jogging on the beach, looked out over the water at a pelican, trying to take off and crashing. It had dived on a bluefish lure and was hooked. I spoke to the old fisherman and he wanted to cut the line. I said no, he'll get tangled and die. So I went out about 200' following the line with really no plan. When I got close, he was snapping at me. I distracted him with my right hand in front of his face and came up from under the water with my left clamping his bill together. Threw my arm around him and swam/walked to shore hoping someone had some pliers to cut the barb off. Pelican had been hooked through his throat.
The guy fishing next to him had a shiny pair of beautiful sidecutters, I snipped off the barb, big lure fell out. i carried pelican back to the water's edge and he flew off like nothing had happened. This was on Hatteras Island. Posted by: My Pelican Story at October 26, 2026 07:35 PM (EdP2u) 56

I'm kicking myself, should have remembered this. Because of the properties of CO2 molecules, which makes up the vast majority of what little atmosphere is there, there are two distinct speeds of sound roughly on Mars. Higher frequencies travel a bit faster than lower frequencies, about 10 m/s difference, with the line being at 240 Hz. So, you get sound dispersion. And sound attenuation is much greater on Mars. Everyday sounds we make all the time doing our normal routines would drop off in intensity greatly past 30' or so.

There were plans for a Mars sample return, and they are technically still on, but sort of in limbo. At any rate, they developed protocols for this, and believe you me, they are quite involved. There are also "Andromeda Strain" concerns about bringing some Martian bug back to earth. Probably overblown, but we would be dealing with a true unknown.

The Viking landers back in the '70s carried a number of biological experiments aboard to test for life in various ways. A couple of them gave positive results, but they were discounted as likely some abiotic chemistry of some sort, due to the apparent total lack of organic compounds in the soil. That was wrong, and we know now that Mars has many organics. There was a recent paper calling the original conclusions in questions, and concluding the jury is still very much out on just what Viking may or may not have detected.

You really caught the look of rocks seen through shallow water. (I've seen a lot of that.) I assume you have to thin out the oil paint a lot to get that effect. Posted by: JTB at October 26, 2026 08:34 PM (yTvNw) I don't know what the 'correct technique' is but the way I did it is how I do all my paintings and that is to look at the 2D image and see and copy the 2D shape and color and don't let my mind see the actual image. And I don't know if I mentioned before but my paintings may be unique in that I use no other mediums and paint only straight from the tube. No thinning or drying mediums which makes it much harder to paint with oil but I decided not to expose myself to the harmful chemicals when I first started. I don't even use quality brushes because I throw them away after a painting session because I don't want to use thinner to clean them. Posted by: polynikes at October 26, 2026 08:59 PM (Ti9vn) 150

From Wikipedia :
"Although Boeing produced the prototype XF8B in 1944 and the X-32 entry in the Joint Strike Fighter contest in 2000, the P-26 was the last Boeing Company fighter aircraft to enter service until Boeing acquired McDonnell Douglas in 1997 and took over its production and continuing support contracts for the F-15 Eagle and the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet.".
