Lefty Hipster Doofus and King of Nepotism James Gunn Replaced by Skydance With a... Christian Normie
As you can imagine, there is much freaking out about this by the very-normal people who literally freak out about everything.
First: Why were Gunn and his business partner Peter Safran fired from co-leading DC on Film? And note that it has been confirmed that he was fired, or instructed to "resign." Variety:I really liked -- maybe loved -- Gunn's reboot of The Suicide Squad. Some objected to him being put in charge of DC on Film -- the only thing he knows how to do, they said, was make crude jokes, inappropriate for young or normie audiences, and remake Guardians of the Galaxy, making every movie, even ones about a singular hero, into another story of a team of misfits learning together. I dismissed that. Just because someone is good at one thing doesn't mean they aren't good at other things. But I was wrong: He is incapable of writing anything but Guardians of the Galaxy Part IV. And this is weird: Instead of focusing on DC's best-known heroes, he announced he'd be making movies about the third and fourth and fifth string heroes like -- and I know only stone-cold DC fans will even know what I'm talking about here -- Creature Commandos, Booster Gold, and The Authority. If you're not a DC fan, you just read a bunch of words that mean absolutely nothing. Let me tell you that as a DC fan myself, they only mean slightly more than nothing to me, too.
After "Superman" landed in theaters last summer, former Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav was ready to pop Champagne. Although the movie had only been playing on the big screen for three days, he touted the "bold 10-year plan" of DC Studios co-chiefs James Gunn and Peter Safran and promised "the DC vision is clear" and "the momentum is real." Fast forward a year and a half, and those plans have imploded. Gunn and Safran were dismissed from the top of the comic book empire, with Marvel Studios alum Jeremy Latcham taking over as president and chief creative officer of DC Studios. ... The executive shuffle is yet another setback for DC Studios, which has struggled for years to compete with Disney's Marvel Cinematic Universe. Their short-lived leadership stint at DC follows multiple turnovers over the past decade, starting with comic book veterans Geoff Johns and Jon Berg and then Walter Hamada.... Gunn's "Superman," starring David Corenswet -- the duo's first big swing as bosses -- was touted as a hit with $618 million against a $225 million budget. Those ticket sales were promising enough, given the general decline in popularity of comic book movies. But they didn't necessarily signal the kind of lasting enthusiasm that spawns an interconnected universe. Momentum all but evaporated with July's money-loser "Supergirl," which flopped with $126 million globally against a $170 million budget. And while October's "Clayface" performed modestly with $109 million against a $44 million budget, sources suggest the body-horror thriller won't break even until the studio factors in downstream revenues.
I will give Gunn a half-pass for this choice, because the prior regime ruined many of the top DC characters, like Flash and Wonder Woman. (If you're thinking "But Wonder Woman was good," then I know you didn't see Wonder Woman '84. It was a disaster.)
Insiders have raised eyebrows at Gunn and Safran's decision to focus on lesser-known characters, like Superman's cousin Kara El-Zor, aka Supergirl, and the Batman villain Clayface, rather than building out the franchise with marquee names.
That one was also a disaster -- an anti-white woke screed about black supremacy. Here's the good news: The Ellisons have decided to move away from the tasteless trashy woke hipster towards... a stone-cold normie who used to work for Marvel, when --- wait for it -- Marvel was good. He was part of Marvel from Iron Man through Spider-Man: Homecoming, which was just before the end of Marvel's golden age.
Television efforts, too, were uneven. DC's main small-screen success was "The Penguin," a "Batman" spinoff led by Colin Farrell that was greenlit before Gunn and Safran took over. But the rest of the slate has generated less fanfare. Gunn's "Peacemaker" series, anchored by John Cena, debuted in 2022 before he stepped into the studio job. Although the initial season was popular, the second season -- which launched three years later -- failed to match the buzz of the first. "Lanterns," their first live-action TV show, had strong viewership and averaged 19 million viewers globally per episode going into the finale. Yet an insider at the company suggests the crime drama isn't quite capturing the zeitgeist, pointing out the show has yet to be renewed for a second season.
Internally, there's hope that Latcham -- an executive who helped shape the MCU -- will get back to basics with DC. "Jeremy is the kind of guy who would go to Comic-Con to get an autograph from someone," says another source, "not someone who wants to be there signing autographs."When Latcham was at Marvel, he'd question some edgy or divisive material, stating, "I don't think my grandmother would like this." Other executives would joke and propose things "if that would be all right with Jeremy's grandmother." But apparently Jeremy's Grandmother was a good proxy for 85% of the normie audience. Apparently Jermey Latcham is a Christian whose entire family lives near him on a giant spread in Texas, and who is dedicated to "mainstream, family-friendly, Christian-friendly" movies. You can smell the artificial hormones burning over this. THR:
Which is a really solid movie, despite failing at the box office.
It was Jeremy Latcham, a mild-mannered producer who was once a key member of Marvel Studios' exec team before moving to Texas to go independent. An occasional foray into big-budget moviemaking such as Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves notwithstanding...
...Latcham was focusing on inspirational movies such as the Wright Brothers feature Flyer for the faith-focused studio Wonder Project, where he also helped make House of David, a TV show about the biblical figure. The producer is known to be vocal about his Christian faith and his desire to make uplifting projects. "I had this nagging feeling that I needed to do more movies that had deeper meaning to me," Latcham said of Wonder Project during an appearance on the Bible Bros podcast while promoting the Nate Bargatze comedy The Breadwinner. "Let's be the HBO for the faith and family audience. Let's try to make movies and television shows that restore faith in things worth believing in."Despite being Christian, Latcham apparently fought with Marvel to give James Gunn the Guardians of the Galaxy gig. So he's not against edgy or trashy material -- in the appropriate case.
DC's heroes, who are intended to play to broad, traditional normie audiences including children, are not the right characters for the Gunn treatment. There is speculation he might also clean house at DC comics itself, which has been on a mission to forefront homosexuality and sexuality-bend characters like the most popular Robin, Tim Drake, and the formerly-popular Superboy, into gays and bisexuals. This, of course, is causing all sorts of shrieking and screaming. Some of the people who have lobbied and demanded for every other DC character to be turned gay are complaining that the Latcham might jam his personal beliefs down our throats. Can you even imagine such a thing??!!> But no he won't, because he's a professional, not a bent and twisted activist.
In a twist, Latcham was instrumental in Gunn's rise, advocating for the niche director's hiring on Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy, which turned Gunn into an A-list filmmaker who commands eight-figure paydays for his directing work.

Booster Gold is my all-time favorite DC character.
Mainly in the original run by Dan Jurgens.
I thought the name was *dumb* when I first saw the ads for it.
Doesn't matter, the character was interesting enough.
Jurgens really captured Jock-as-superhero.

I'd like some creativity, please. Maybe someone can stop studying pronouns and concentrate on communication to scribble down some realistic and relevant dialogue. Perhaps, someone who isn't buried in comic books will, actually, tell an engrossing story.
And, just once, I want to see an explosion on the big screen where they don't have someone walking away with their back to it implying indifference. I'd like to see the realistic response. "Expletive expletive expletive..."

CNN Director: We Focus on the Race of the Criminal When He's White But Hide It When He's a "Minority"
Plus: The Media Gins Up a Fresh Race Hoax
You don't say.
You do not say. This is a hidden-camera sting admission, of course. He would never admit this publicly. This is standard CNN practice. Jake Tapper is very big on reporting crimes committed against Jews -- but, when black men were playing the knockout game with Jews in NYC, he did not report it, or if he mentioned it, he made sure he didn't run the video or name the perpetrators. But he would generally complain of violence against Jews while avoiding any mention of the actual perpetrators of what he was talking about. But then came the Tree of Life attack, where a synagogue was attacked by an Acceptable and Approved Villain, a white man. And then Jake Tapper really talked up the problem of violence against Jews, with the none-too-subtle suggestion that White Men, Republicans in particular, were responsible for it. You see the same thing with rapes. White feminist women love to complain about rape... so long as it's a made-up allegation about presumably white Cornell students. (Note: It turns out most of them weren't white, but they assumed they were.) Russell Brand, safely white, makes for an excellent Morality Play about concent. Muslim rape gangs, on the other hand? Never heard of them.

Two years ago, after a large British investigation into child sexual exploitation, the following foreign muslims were tried and convicted. They got much less prison time than Brand did.
Huzaefa Aleboud was convicted of two counts of rape, assault by penetration, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm. Five and a half years.
Hamoud Al-Soaimi was convicted of three counts of sexual assault and assaulting a child under 13 by penetration. Two-year prison sentence, suspended for two years.
Mohamed Badreddin was convicted of six counts of rape, one count of assault by penetration, and violent disorder. Got 13 years in prison, but for 6x as many rapes as Brand.

1. I'd like to see the video of that, if it exists. What does "hooted like chimps" mean? I'll bet what they did really wasn't referencing chimps, just drunken stupid antics.
2. When you hear the dog whistle, you're the dog. It's sad how many black people get triggered over even the most tangential reference -- even obviously unintentional -- to anything that could possibly be considered simian. I think they have the problem, not white people.
3. If someone references a "devil" -- or even flatout calls me a "white devil" -- I don't get triggered because I'm being compared to a demonic being, which is much worse than being compared to a chimp.

I'd like to know more about these girls. Were they just goofy apolitical girls playing the standard doorbell ditch? Is there any "right-wing affiliation" to tar them with? It would be unspeakably delicious if they were lefty loons who were engaging in a silly prank with no harmful intentions.

Agree. Drunk college kids acting like drunk college kids? That should be the end of the story. Media once again explains the appropriate emotional response, identifies the villains (always the same group), and makes sure everyone gets the “approved” interpretation. Rinse. Repeat. Ad nauseam. But it seems to work on a large part of the population.

Black girl goes on TV and explains how the girls came to apologize and told her they weren't targeting here because they had no idea who lived there.
Black girl continues to tell TV that she didn't see them hitting any other doors.

Trump and Hegseth Honor the Heroes on This Veterans Day
In addition to honoring the heroes, Trump also made the case for the war with Iran, although he also promised it would be over "soon."
During a speech at Arlington National Cemetery on Wednesday, President Donald Trump thanked U.S. service members for their ongoing sacrifices and argued that the U.S. has been pitted against Iran since 1979, when the Islamic Revolution happened. President Donald Trump defended the war in Iran and said it will be over "soon" during his Veterans Day address on Wednesday. Trump made the statement while speaking to a crowd of veterans and their families at Arlington National Cemetery. He highlighted the 1983 Iran-backed bombing of the U.S. Marine Corps barracks in Beirut and argued that Iran has been at war with the U.S. for decades. "America did not start a war with Iran. Iran has been waging war on America since 1979. They should have been taken care of a long time ago," Trump said.
A brief background on Veterans Day:
The First World War killed as many as 22 million people worldwide and left some 23 million more wounded. An estimated 53,000 of those killed were American service members. Another 204,000 Americans would return home wounded. World War I ushered in a new age of warfare: industrial and mechanical innovations killed, wounded, and maimed troops on the battlefield in ways previously unimaginable. Tanks, machine guns, and poison gas forever scarred the men in the trenches in ways they could never forget -- and Americans back home took notice. On the anniversary of the armistice, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed the first commemoration of Armistice Day, saying: "To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country's service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations." From Armistice Day to Veterans Day From that day until 1926, Armistice Day became a day Americans recognized unofficially, closing shops at 11 a.m. so people could line the streets for parades, public meetings, and prayer. By 1926, 27 states had already recognized the day as a holiday, so Congress decided to call it Armistice Day for the entire country. In 1938, November 11th became an official public holiday. But "The War to End All Wars" didn't end any wars. It was just a prelude to World War II, the largest and costliest war in human history, in terms of both money and lives spent fighting it. World War II didn't end wars, either. After the Allies defeated the Axis Powers, the Cold War began, and in 1950, its first battles were fought on the Korean Peninsula. The United States, less than 40 years after the end of World War I, was suddenly filled with millions of war veterans, all of whom had fought for American freedoms and ideals. The National Recognition of Veterans Day In 1954, a year after the end of the Korean War, veteran service organizations lobbied Congress to amend the Act of 1938 to change "Armistice Day" to "Veterans Day" and make November 11th a day to honor all veterans.
banner "I have today signed a proclamation calling upon all of our citizens to observe Thursday, November 11, 1954, as Veterans Day," President Dwight D. Eisenhower wrote in a letter to the administrator of Veterans Affairs. "It is my earnest hope that all veterans, their organizations, and the entire citizenry will join hands to ensure [sic] proper and widespread observance of this day."

Every Veterans Day at 11:11 a.m., the sun lines up perfectly with the Anthem Veterans Memorial in Anthem, Arizona. https://t.co/4ybRODhyc8
— James Lucas (@JamesLucasIT) November 11, 2026
I AM BLAZE THE CURIOUS⚕️☢️
@Blazethecurious DID YOU KNOW?? The Anthem Veterans Memorial in Anthem, Arizona, was mathematically engineered so that every single year on Veterans Day, November 11th, at precisely 11:11 AM, the sun aligns through five towering vertical pillars to cast a brilliant solar spotlight directly onto the Great Seal of the United States embedded in the pavement below. Anthem Veterans Memorial is a striking tribute located within Anthem Community Park. Designed by local resident Jim Martin and engineered by a multidisciplinary team including architects and astronomers, the memorial was dedicated on Veterans Day in 2011. The monument's core feature consists of five cylindrical, white marble pillars ranging in height from 17 to 30 feet, representing the five branches of the U.S. Armed Forces (Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard). Each pillar features precisely cut elliptical apertures designed to channel sunlight at a very specific solar azimuth and elevation angle. When November 11th arrives, the sun reaches the exact point in the autumn sky where its rays pass straight through all five openings simultaneously, creating a dazzling solar spotlight effect over the bronze Great Seal medallion on the brick floor. The Astronomical Engineering of the Monument: How precise celestial mechanics and architectural design unite to honor veterans: 1. The Five Pillars
Structural Symbolism
Five graduated white marble columns represent the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard, arranged in Department of Defense order of precedence. 2. Elliptical Openings
Precision Apertures
Engineers calculated exact seasonal sun angles to carve specific viewing slots into the tops of the pillars, accounting for latitude and orbital tilt. 3. The Solar Illumination
November 11, 11:11 AM
At precisely 11 minutes past 11 o'clock on the 11th month, light rays converge seamlessly to illuminate the bronze Great Seal on the plaza floor. 4. Honoring Service Members
Commemorative Pavers
Surrounding the focal monument, thousands of engraved bricks bear the names of veterans from across the United States. More Surprising Facts About the Memorial: A. The Ordinal Sequence: The pillars are ordered strictly by military precedence, Army on the left, followed by the Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard on the right. B. Sacred Paver Ground: The bricks that pave the memorial plaza are separated into distinct rings containing personalized inscriptions honoring living and deceased veterans, funded entirely by community donations and families. C. Year-Round Solar Movement: While the precise spotlight effect only occurs once a year on Veterans Day, the shadow cast by the sun shifts continuously across the plaza throughout the day and year, functioning as a massive architectural sundial. SUMMARILY!
The Anthem Veterans Memorial uses precise astronomical alignment to spotlight the U.S. Great Seal every November 11th at 11:11 AM through five marble pillars representing the military branches. Hopefully you've learnt something new today? The Medic Who Writes(TM)

The only thing I wish Trump had done differently is spending more time talking directly to the country about why we went and why it's worth the sacrifice. He allowed the narrative to be written for him instead of leading with his own.
I think it would've given him a lot more support.

Due to the leap years discrepancy between the official and astronomical calendar the effect can be observed at least one day before or after Veterans Day as well.

There is a symbolic "sundial" effect at Victory Memorial Drive in Minneapolis (spanning into Robbinsdale), though it is not a traditional sundial.
On Veterans Day (November 11) at precisely 11:11 AM (when the sun is shining), the sun aligns behind the park's tall flagpole.
The flagpole casts a giant shadow directly over the Armistice Day stone marker, honoring the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month when the World War I ceasefire went into effect.

The “independent” has 2.1%.how independent is he? Oh he’s just a lifelong Democrat who ran for Secretary of State as a Democrat in 2023. He also publicly stated he would t campaign in black areas to not get black votes taken from the Democrat.
Every single time there’s a close race this shit happens. But never the other way around mysteriously. There’s never an “independent” that steals votes from the Dem candidate. Republican voters are kinda stupid because they fall for this every election.

We have to do it the Friday before or after Veterans day because veterans day is a federal holiday and the VA and the State veterans home can't run their buses to get the vets to our post. We get mostly disabled or mobility challenged vets from the VA community living center (CLC) and the Clyde Cosper State VA home that attend.
We usually serve about 100 vets but this year we only had 78. Everyone has a good time with plenty to eat.

I almost vomited when Obama laid that wreath and his fanz swooned with admiration. So solemn! So respectful!! I hope I never have to see a President el-Sayed or President AOC dishonor that ceremony with their fake respect. It kills me the way those people assume the mighty legacy of America in order to make themselves look consequential and a part of America's greatness.

Arkansas "Republican" Says He Might Vote to Impeach Pete Hegseth
"Not prosecuting a war perfectly" is not a grounds for impeachment. It's just a policy difference. And it's not really a policy difference at all because this pussy doesn't offer any of his own war policies that he can even claim would have been more effective. As Jonathan Turley points out, the Democrats are admitting openly that they have scrapped the Constitution's requirement of high crimes and misdemeanors for impeachment and are now using it simply as a tool to fight for policy changes.
A Republican congressman who narrowly won a seventh House term in deep-red Arkansas refused Sunday to rule out voting to impeach War Secretary Pete Hegseth. "I want to hear the debate on it to see if it merits impeachment versus some other disciplinary action or action by the president, if he's not getting the job done in leading the Department of War," Rep. French Hill (R-Ark.) told CBS News' "Face The Nation." Hill, 69, answered "no" when host Margaret Brennan asked if he was "satisfied with how the war has been handled." "But, I mean, I think the commander in chief has to take the responsibility for the strategy of conducting the war and how it's been conducted," he added. "But I will tell you one thing. There's nobody in America that wants Iran to have a nuclear weapon." The House is expected to vote sometime this week on a resolution to impeach Hegseth promoted by lame-duck Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), who has vowed to force the issue unless the former Fox News host resigns.
As Hegseth says: This sham impeachment is just their opening shot in using lawfare to get rid of anyone they don't like -- and that will eventually include ordinary civilians.
Jonathan Turley
@JonathanTurley Rep. Jason Crow (D., Co.) just told Martha McCallum that the impeachment of Hegseth is "not really about impeachment" but rather just a desire to remove him. He said that this is just another means. That is precisely what the Framers did not want impeachment to become... ...Rep. Crow is speaking of impeachment as a way of forcing "a course change." It is exactly the cavalier attitude toward impeachment that can be so destabilizing for our country... ...He added "we have a tool called impeachment" that allows them to remove cabinet members like Hegseth if the President will not do so. When Martha pushed him on such "amorphous" objections, Crow said, "I would love to end the impeachment proceedings...just fire Pete Hegseth."
This is the truth.
This is not about Hegseth. It's about cowing the men and women in uniform into not following lawful orders because they might wind up in Leavenworth. This is an extension of the Seditious Six ploy. This is about co-opting the one American institution that has remained true to the Constitution: the U.S. military. Hegseth stands between us and tyranny, which is why they hate him so and seek to destroy him.— Cynical Publius (@CynicalPublius) November 10, 2026

He saw what Shrub did and how sending a bunch of men to die doing police work in the middle east would not work and didn't do that.
But his problem is the low intensity conflict model is slow and that's what the left has been able to use against us.
You win wars by inflicting enough pain to force the other side to agree to your terms. Yes things are slowly getting worse for the average Iranian but the IRGC folks don't seem bothered.
We should have *at least* begun a campaign to destroy infrastructure in use by Iranian elites - remove their roads, bridges, power plants, etc. and honestly we should have been level bombing the neighborhoods they live in.
Sure a bunch of them are fine with martyrdom. Let's give it to them and their whole klans until we get IRGC leaders that don't want to die for Allah today...

But for what? DOJ has to enforce congressional referrals for contempt.
And then I realize it's the Boesberg Plan--file some frivolous suit in one of these cartel courts.
The cartel judge issues a vague, incomprehensible and/or impossible order.

______________________
Actually, it's very very much about Hegseth. One of the things he did that blew a hole in the DC money factory related to defense contractors. He made it much more difficult for "retired" command officers to sell their services in the private sector. Defense contractors are dependent on these relationships to acquire direct contacts within the "decision making process" on bids. Then, Hegseth touched the third rail and did away with the "revolving door" for command to retire for a few years while an "unfriendly Executive Office" exists and return when someone more favorable to their career returns. This pissed off the entire command structure at the Pentagon, and they are OUT FOR BLOOD.,..,and a return to the previous structure.
Don't fool yourself. The last person they want in the Dept of War is an actual military experienced individual who looks out for the ranks below the "rubber chicken" dinner circuit Generals, Admirals etc.

Have you read the articles if impeachment Massie presented? The entire complaint can be re-stated as, "Hegseth is getting the job done as Secretsry of War way too competently, as if he thinks he is in charge of actual armed forces and not just some social experiment."

Or do you simply mean that they want to impeach him but they need legal grounds as they would with Trump?
Remember when the Seditious 6 came out with their video claiming that Hegseth was illegally killing drug runners in the Gulf by blowing up their boats? They also warned that anyone in the military who followed those orders could also be charged.
It was a lie but it signaled exactly what they were going to do. Look at the articles of impeachment against Hegseth Massie dropped yesterday. Among the idiotic things in there was "murdering" drug runners in the Gulf.
I'm sure they will come after him again once all the new Dems are sworn in. But Hegseth doesn't run the military. The Commander in Chief does. If Trump gave the order or just allowed it and it was illegal ultimately it's his responsibility.

Impeachment sentiment against Ace of Spades gained momentum when a Chinese spy answered "no" when asked if she was satisfied by Ace's sexual performance and alleged that the controversial blogger ran over her feet in a bizarre road rage incident.
Speculation that Ace would be appointed Trump's next press secretary grew following reports he has been relocated to a military base amid threats from Tuq'r Qatarlson disciples.
Meanwhile, presumed incoming Speaker of the House Hakeem Jeffries said he would refuse to work with Ace, whom he labeled a "stone cold gefilte fish lover."

Perfect: Twice-Deported Illegal Alien Arrested for Making a Bomb Threat Against a Plane In Flight
This guy gets Cultural Enrichment right.
I have a scoop: He was deported once for saving too many lives as a heroic doctor, and deported a second time for being such a brilliant engineer he created limitless energy, but Big Energy wanted it kept secret.
The deranged passenger who claimed he had a bomb aboard a New Orleans-bound United Airlines flight and then tried to rush the cockpit, has been identified as a Honduran illegal migrant twice kicked out of the US, immigration officials told The Post.
Ah, even though he'd committed multiple crimes of sneaking into the country and then sneaking back, a leftwing judge ordered that he be released to flee again while he set a new clock on the potential years of procedure necessary to deport him again. Those leftwing judges need to be purged and possibly prosecuted. Maybe they should be prosecuted as co-conspirators for all the crimes the illegals they set free subsequently (inevitably) commit.
Rony Alexander Gomez-Alberto, 34, was arrested on three separate occasions by Border Patrol for illegally entering the United States, years before he threatened to blow up the United flight 2174 plane out of New Jersey Monday night, a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said. Immigration officials said that Gomez-Alberto, a Honduras native, was arrested twice in the US and deported -- first in September 2011 near El Indio, Texas, and again in October 2014 in Columbus, New Mexico.
The slippery migrant made his way back into the US a third time in 2019 near California's San Ysidro border town, where he was nabbed again, according to DHS. But Gomez-Alberto was freed from ICE custody in January 2020 after a judge ordered his release pending removal proceedings, authorities said.
His criminal history includes felony bomb threat, felony threat--terroristic state offenses, and disorderly conduct, according to the DHS spokesperson. "Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, criminal illegal aliens are NOT welcome in the United States," the spokesperson said in a statement.
NEW: DHS confirms to @FoxNews that a suspect arrested on a Newark to New Orleans United flight last night for allegedly storming the cockpit and claiming to have a bomb, leading to United putting out a hijack alert for the plane, is a 2x previously deported Honduran illegal alien.
Rony Alexander Gomez-Alberto was arrested by the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s office once the flight landed at MSY (New Orleans airport) and he has been charged with felony bomb threat, terroristic threats, and disorderly conduct. Per DHS - Gomez-Alberto crossed the Texas border illegally in 2011 and was deported, then illegally re-entered through the New Mexico border in 2014 and was deported a second time. He illegally re-entered the country a third time in 2019, was arrested by Border Patrol, but was released from custody after an immigration judge ordered his release. He is currently being held without bond by law enforcement in Louisiana.— Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) November 11, 2026

@visegrad24 BREAKING: A man armed with an AR-15 who said he had come to Washington to kill Trump was arrested by the Secret Service in front of the White House. They noticed a suspicious man in a vehicle, which later turned out to be stolen. The illegal migrant in the car, who had an AR-15, a Mac 10 and a handgun, told the agents that he had been hearing voices who were telling him to come to Washington and kill Trump. Ronny Yordrix Guanipa Chrinos was quickly arrested after the incident last night

And, if that was intentional, that's probably the best news for the future we have:
That's the kind of plausible deniability, monkey-wrenching we need 10,000 times more of from our side.
Also, read a person claiming to be in records retention saying, basically, no records (that the Dems are thundering about being deleted) were deleted.
Because what was classified as a "record" was not deleted.
And what the Dems are after were not classified as records.
But what is not a record is deleted/destroyed per set policy.
Malicious compliance.

THE GREAT REPLACEMENT
ISLAMIZED TEXAS: FROM 313,000 TO 1.25 MILLION MUSLIMS IN JUST FIVE YEARS?
That is what a comparison of these figures suggests:
2020: Approximately 313,000 Muslims.
2025: Approximately 1,250,000, based on figures attributed to the presidents of the Islamic Society of Greater Houston and the North Texas Islamic Council.
If accurate and comparable, those figures would represent a fourfold increase an estimated 937,000 additional Muslim residents.
Texas’s total population grew by 2,560,323 over that period.
On that basis, Muslim population growth would account for approximately 37% of the state’s net population increase.
An extraordinary claim. We are watching the fall of America happen in real time...

I'm much less concerned than I thought I would be. Dems have had power before, and they typically squander it. They'll be doubly screwed this time as they have a large majority, and their radical Left wing is feeling empowered. They're going to overreach, fight internally, their Establishment will want pointless (and safe) hearings and investigations...they won't get much done in 2 years.
The bigger concern is whether Trump can set Republicans up for success in 2028. End the Iran war, keep deporting millions, keep improving the economy, and cut through the (foreign and domestically funded) mass social media disinformation campaign that is successfully hurting Republicans in the minds of Normie voters: they think we're losing to Iran, the economy is terrible, Trump and Republicans are pedo protectors and corrupt, they're slaves to Israel...it's crazy, but they believe it, and it destroyed us in the midterms.

Looking across the rich variety of situations that are politically inexplicable, perhaps the most amazing (and grotesque) is that "sanctuary" lawlessness is directly responsible for thousands of murders, kidnappings, assaults, child molestations, robberies - across the country - and yet AFAIK there has not been 1 cent in political price paid. Dem voters just don't care that people in "their community" are killed, abused, robbed as a direct result of policies they support.
This is just a fundamental evaporation of common sense and even civilization standards. And having to live around and have life degraded by these people (voters) is infuriating.

Some of the best things that have happened in DC over the last 2 years were done by Trump with no help from Congress. He's still there and still pushing his agenda.

I firmly believe that what mainly guides Demonic Party initiatives is Sadism. While the GOP is mostly composed of those in the Dark Triad, the Demonic Party hosts exclusively those in the Dark Tetrad.
They love guns. They love murdering people. They love war, especially pointless wars. They do absolutely nothing when a non-white obtains or tries to obtain or use guns.
This goes with everything else. The predominant culture used to believe in Imago Dei so they deliberately set out every program or initiative that kills, destroys, deforms and mutilates the human being.

Since the gentry left has plenty of disposable income if they lose a phone or bike they can afford to play it off.

As almost everything achieved so far was with unilateral executive action, with luck that will continue and ramp up (though the lawless obstruction of America's most collapsed and pernicious institution, the judiciary, will limit progress possibly even worse than before, now that they know there's no possibility of repercussions for at least 4-6 years).
And Sec. Mullin, how about non-criminal illegal aliens - are they welcome? Ya know, the vast bulk of the problem? We're at the point where it's hard to avoid concluding Trump never intended to address it.

Bomb hoaxes across Europe disrupt flights as two UK airports also receive threats.

Why not Israel?
Why would flights departing Ireland be targeted so heavily? We're are a neutral country, without major diplomatic issues (albeit we are a hugely Pro-Palestinian)

On Nextdoor I’ve seen a lot of people - leftists of course - shrug at that saying what’s the big deal, just get insurance to pay for it. Or nobody got hurt so whatever. They’re too retarded to understand that every shithole crime infested city started with just small stuff and if you don’t get the small stuff under control it leads to bigger stuff.

1) The left has come up with a way to steal senate and house elections by 10% or more even in red states in a way that even vigilant MAGA people can't detect
2) The left convinced millions of LIVs to vote the people that raised gas to $4/gallon and created double digit inflation back into power because the price of gas had temporarily gone back to $4/gallon.
Hard to say which of the two is worse, though honestly it like looks 2) to me.

But the "we've been through this before, we'll get 'em next time" approach I find inapplicable to this situation. What about 6 Obama terms in a row? 3 Carter terms? Guess what - you'd survive, the country would survive, but it would be incredibly stupid and sh***y.

One other part of this story - he claimed Pelosi sexually abused him hence the attack. Now the left argues that's because he's crazy but consider how the left would treat anyone else attacking a political they accused of sexually abusing them irrespective of the unlikeliness of the charge
And I'll note one claim you find repeated all the time from the left is a woman who claims that she was an Epstein girl given to Trump. She also claims Trump personally performed an abortion on her on a boat on one of the great lakes. AND she made the same claim about several other men. Biden's FBI told her she was obviously lying.
Now...which is a more likely claim that woman or the guy that attacked Pelosi?

You're on the right track. The Left (with lots of help) convinced the public Trump and the Republicans were on the wrong track, making things worse, etc. The Left is mobilized because they really, really hate Trump, and normies were successfully pysopped into thinking everything had gone to shit, and voting Dem is their only protest. I think a lot of normies don't like Dems, but voted for them to punish Republicans. That's the only real silver lining...this is temporary and CAN pass quickly.
But, if things in actuality are going fairly well, and the Left can successfully lie well enough to TURN TEXAS BLUE, we either need the greatest Pax Americana ever to be successful in 2028, or figure out how to crack the most effective Leftist astrofurfing campaign in history.

It's kinda #2, but more complex than that.
Remember how successful people like Scot Pressler were in registering new GOP voters and getting them to vote in 2024? Well, the Dems learned from this and spent the last two years furiously doing the same for their voters. Red states like TX in particular.
What did we do? Nothing. We got fat and lazy and complacent.
Then, come the election, Democraps swarmed the polls, crawling over broken glass to vote against Trump. They considered this a pseudo-presidential election, a referendum on Trump.
What did we do? Nothing. We stayed home. There were 22 million more GOP votes in 2024 than 2026. Inexcusable.

And then I compare that with John Thune, and each and every one of the pieces of garbage in the Republican Party who did none of that for the country. None of that for the people that elected them to do their jobs. They sat on their fat, flabby behinds, working on their insider trading stocks, coordinating with each other to stop Trump in his tracks.

I still have my sense of humor, my life's accomplishments, and a sense of optimism is slowly returning. Prop 40 failed for now (no billionaires tax). Things will get better. Just as we didn't get all we hoped for the past two years, neither will the Dems the next two years.

Mullin can also order TSA to check for valid right to travel in the United States for foreign nationals. After all, TSA CHECKS FOR THAT FOR AMERICAN CITIZENS! If you do not have a Real ID or a valid US passport you ccan travel, but they charge you $45 each time and you have to go through a special screening process to make sure you are a citizen.
This clown most likely used a passport from his native country, and since TSA does not check to see if the traveler is validly in the United States, he got on the plane.

You are absolutely right Garrett. The best course is to force them to accept suffering without explanation, because they are not adults, and the youngest ones really have never had their own lives with helicopter parents, state schools and nanny government.
True Conservativism demands that individuals be forced to comply since the lumpenproletariat do not have the ability to understand what is in their best interest
Treating them like they nothing more than Pigs in human clothing.

That's nonsense. "Pissed off" at the highest employment rate in the nation in a decade or more? Pissed off at crime and violent crime rates that had plummeted everywhere? Pissed off at gas prices that even though not ideal were still lower than under Biden? What were voters "pissed off" about that made them decide that Marxists and Islamonazis were what this nation needed?

Talked to my sister-in-law & another foothill walk planned for tomorrow. I can't have many plans, altho we do, as my mother's health declines daily, & is a new thing daily 1000mi away.
All her needs are met, she's home & happy. My brother lives 1/4mi away & I would sit and stare at the sitter for most of the day.
Have fought guilt & won with the help of my dude & sons. Don't want my last memory of her to be this way after 95yrs of living independently.
DIL called me to ask what was going on & she sees right through the wacko brother's wife who does NOTHING to help except send me poison emails I don't respond to.
We have zipped through the Kubler Ross stages of grief into normal sarcasm. I will have times of sadness in the future, but we've been here before with my father.
The rerun of Dims vs Trump and others is pathetic. Instead of making our country safer or lowering prices they choose to be pandering prancing peens.

I don’t believe it. The Democrats can’t win without cheating. They just poured on the cheat extra hard this time, and are daring the President to question the results. If he does, he better have solid proof, because this is this election Jan. 6 trap: claim the results are rigged and the President becomes illegitimate. See what DataRepublican has dug up about their plans. I believe the Democrats cheated, enough to make this apparent big switch. The difficulty is proving it in a way that Norm and Norma Public can see it.

Wednesday Morning Rant
So expect more destruction in the name of "climate change" and less opposition to insanity that is already in the works. Reuters provides us with examples of both. First up is a UN-mandated - through the back door, so nobody has to actually pass it or sign a treaty - international wealth transfer scheme wearing the familiar vestments of the Church of Climate: the humble carbon credit. All members of the UN's International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) are on the hook for it, since it's an ICAO rule and applies to its members. Spoiler alert: everyone's a member. Like most agencies, the ICAO was invented for reasonable purposes like ensuring consistent navigation rules, airport names, aircraft and airport classification, maintenance standards, etc. Also like most agencies, it is a tool of revolutionaries to impose their will. The scheme imposed by the ICAO - called the "Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation" (CORSIA) - becomes mandatory next year and is expected to cost the commercial aviation industry at least 5% of its total annual profits. Dollars extracted from airlines will be transferred to those selling carbon credits. The carbon credit sellers are usually poor countries with jungles. Carbon credits are also usually naked fraud, but no matter.
That'll be fun. While I would like to expect domestic airlines - with the full support of the administration - to just ignore this stupid scheme and dare the ICAO to levy unenforceable fines, I don't think that will happen. I just expect to see a "carbon offset" fee on the receipt the next I fly internationally, if that ever happens. The one upside to the way the ICAO snuck this through is that it applies only to international flights. The average European passenger will get corn-holed by this much more than the average American passenger - at least until our domestic communists impose a national version of the same. You can be sure that it is on their list, and that they won't talk about it too much. What will hit harder and worse will be the broader degradation of the domestic power situation. For a vision of the future, one needs only to look at Europe and specifically at Germany. Germany, one of the more retarded European countries when it comes to energy, is now reaping the consequences of its energy policy and the policies it has helped impose on the rest of the continent through the EU. Electricity prices there are surging as the "decarbonization" chickens come home to roost. The wind isn't blowing much, and Germany needs the wind to blow. The rest of Europe is also struggling, as hydroelectric production is down and most "renewables" aren't producing enough. Germany's generation capacity - and to a lesser but still significant extent, the rest of Europe's - is increasingly dependent on its increasingly strained natural gas infrastructure. Europe is stuck. They've built too much expensive, unreliable infrastructure. But it's okay, comrade - your chocolate ration will still be increased:While renewables continue to displace fossil fuels, lower emissions and provide growing volumes of low-cost electricity, the latest market turmoil highlights that utilities still have work to do to ensure power systems remain fit for purpose.See? The unreliable power that is spiking in price is nonetheless high in volume and low in cost. Reuters says so! Expect the assault on gas, coal and nuclear to be reinvigorated next year. While they are loudly impeaching everyone and bleating about whatever comes up when they spin the wheel from day to day, expect the congressional committees to quietly advance as much energy destruction as possible. American energy must be destroyed, and it doesn't matter that "climate change" wasn't an election issue. The communists sweeping into office will treat it as a mandate to undo as much energy progress as possible. John Kerry just made that perfectly clear. He may be a wizened and largely disfavored old husk with a face stuffed full of cheap mattress batting by a plastic surgeon who clearly hates him, but that may be intentional. "Climate change" is not going to be front and center over the next two years, but it will be a continuous - and probably quiet - pursuit. Whether Secretary Wright can stymie them for a year or two is an open question, but they will work manfully to accomplish their goals.

I hear some people expressing surprise at the Democrats agenda of attacking free speech, trying to jail their enemies, DEI, trannie love, abortion for all, free healthcare for all on your dime, attacking the Second Amendment, going after the energy companies, higher taxes and the rest of it.
Really? They told you this was what they were gonna do. Why didn’t you believe them?

Speaking of grocery prices...
Walmart and Kroger are quietly rolling out an internal store technology across America that could either modernize retail or bankrupt the middle-class family budget.
Starting across thousands of locations heading into 2027, traditional paper price tags are being ripped off grocery shelves and replaced with cloud-connected digital screens. Raise the price of bottled water by 20 percent the second the afternoon temperature hits 90 degrees. Surge the cost of ground beef, milk, and sandwich bread between 5 PM and 6 PM when exhausted commuters are rushing home from work. Drop prices at 10 AM on a Tuesday, then hike them right back up the minute the after-school crowd walks through the sliding doors.
Every price change happens wirelessly in seconds from a central corporate dashboard. No store employee has to touch a single shelf.

The scammy essence of climate change is sitting in plain sight. If it's an existential threat, why aren't we bombing China? Look at their coal consumption, look at the Asian Brown Cloud. They've got to be the single biggest threat to the planet. (Byron York pinned the Dems down on this in a Democrat primary debate, to the audience's derisive hoots, as if he hadn't nailed the issue precisely.)
Also, why aren't we dumping truckloads of money on survival education? Why doesn't our elementary educaitonal system have mandatory classes in swimming, basic agriculture, HUNTING, fire-building, shelter-building, map-making, wound treatment, stuff like that instead of "why all the white boys are bad"?
Sorry I keep posting this. No GOPer or for that matter no hard-headed conservative ever seems to throw this back in the lefties' faces; they just feebly argue statistics.

Bodies stacked up like cordwood everywhere!
While we were in the West Bank (sadly the location of Nazareth, Bethlehem, and Jericho), our tour group was actually protected by "Palestinian Tourist Police" because they depend so much on tourist money -- they don't want any bad publicity of tourists being assaulted or robbed.

The hidden camera and smartphone tracking layer inside the shelf.
The digital price tag is only half of the hardware. The real power sits inside the black plastic rail holding the screen and its direct connection to the store app in your pocket.
Kroger's EDGE shelving system integrates with overhead sensors and small optical cameras designed to measure how many seconds a shopper stands in front of a product, along with basic demographic cues. At the same time, Walmart's VusionGroup rails use ultra-precise Bluetooth Low Energy beacons that ping your smartphone the second you walk into the store with the Walmart app installed.
Because your store app knows your past purchase history, your home address, and whether you buy name-brand organic food or store-brand basics, the system knows exactly who is standing in Aisle 4. Federal Trade Commission investigators and US Senate committees have already raised alarms that combining digital shelves with app tracking allows stores to test your personal pain threshold and flash personalized "deals" that are actually higher than what the person next to you is paying.

Walmart's been doing this for about 2, maybe 3 years. Sam's Club too. It you have either app on your phone, and have created a shopping list (or are just browsing) the price will reflect what the algorithm says you'd be willing to pay. Based on your buying history.
I've seen the price on certain items change in real time.

In response to Saturday's column, several Texan readers pointed out that what happened in the midterms owed as much to shifting demographics as to any "affordability" concerns. Over nineteen million persons were registered to vote in the state on Tuesday, which is a near eight per cent increase on the 2022 midterms - or close to a million-and-a-half new "Texans".
How many of them voted for the Democrats? Answer: all of them. Compared to 2022, Governor Abbott got the same number of ballots - approximately four-and-a-half million ...but the Democrat nominee improved the party's vote haul by 1.7 million, and thereby won. You do the math.
In the first eighteen months of the Trump Administration, just shy of one million "migrants" were deported or "self-deported". But how many invaders had Joe Biden let in? Estimates vary from close to seven million (per the Heritage Foundation) to twenty million (per Trump's new chief of staff). So, for every migrant deported, between two and seven get to stay.
And the President now says that's "too tough". Good luck re-taking Texas in 2028.

That test is not partisan. The UN aviation scheme is a small cost handed to passengers. A tariff is a much bigger one handed to the same households, and the administration has just said it is keeping the tariffs for the rest of the term. If cost is the yardstick voters actually used this year, then attacking a carbon fee while defending a consumption tax is choosing which costs count.
And the scale is the uncomfortable part: CORSIA is a rounding error next to the tariff schedule. Disclosure: I work on TheBareNews, an AI-native publication; the Left and Right columns are AI-written and there is no original reporting. The tariff side, in figures: https://tinyurl.com/2aqzbc59

I am going to have to test this out on Kroger's website here in Michigan. I have been using Kroger Clicklist pickup since before Covid. So for about 7-8 years now. Have not shopped inside the store at all during that time. I usually create my order around 9-10pm the night before I want to pick up my order the next morning.
I'll have to compare adding a product at my typical time 9-10pm at night and then adding a product the next morning at 7-8am or so. And add in a comparison to adding a product at 5-6pm during peak times.

The fact people get hung up on this stuff amazes me. You pay more then half your income in taxes. Well Trump brought inflation down to 3% it was well over 10% every year under Biden.
Yes Walmart surge pricing stuff means you'll pay more if you go at a busy time for that product. Why does that $.10 matter compared to say...your tax bill?

The Bloomington (Indiana) City Council voted unanimously to pass an ordinance that "prohibits the distribution and deployment" of ASI. The ordinance, which was backed by the Safe AI Forever Institute, defines ASI as a "system or entity capable of significantly outperforming humans on essentially all cognitive tasks" that can operate without "continuous human oversight." Covered models are prohibited from being activated by any user interface within the borders of Bloomington, regardless of where the underlying developer is located. Students at nearby Indiana University won't be booted off of ChatGPT just yet, as the city is yet to designate any models "superintelligent."

I think it is high time that it becomes de rigueur for persons hauled before Congress to address the person questioning them as "Smarmy Little Shit". To wit:
"Is there a question coming my way, Smarmy Little Shit?"
"Did you compose that long and pointless preface yourself, Smarmy Little Shit, or was that a staffer's work product?"
"Is it painful to be as cognitively challenged as you are, Smarmy Little Shit?"
"You could only wish that I held you in as high in esteem as 'contempt', you loathsome Smarmy Little Shit."

Safety standoff distance set by the US Coast Guard is one mile, but it's a big ship so it should be decent viewing.
There will be no explosive charges. It's a controlled flooding operation (opening the sea water intake valves) which is scheduled to commence at 1:00 p.m. CST.
Estimated time for the ship to become fully submerged and settled on the bottom is 45 minutes if all goes according to expectations of those in charge of the scuttling.

He said discovered Kafle lying on the floor as he walked into their primary bedroom to use the en suite bathroom.
Bhatt testified that Kafle was on her back with vomit on her and on the floor next to her. He said there were pills visible in the vomit as well as a bottle of pills nearby. He claimed there were also open cases of pesticides nearby and it appeared the chemical was in her vomit.
Bhatt said he tried reviving Kafle for 45 minutes to an hour before moving her body across the bedroom floor to the bathroom to try to give her water. She was unresponsive and not breathing the entire time, he said.

THE GREAT REPLACEMENT
ISLAMIZED TEXAS: FROM 313,000 TO 1.25 MILLION MUSLIMS IN JUST FIVE YEARS?
That is what a comparison of these figures suggests:
2020: Approximately 313,000 Muslims.
2025: Approximately 1,250,000, based on figures attributed to the presidents of the Islamic Society of Greater Houston and the North Texas Islamic Council.
If accurate and comparable, those figures would represent a fourfold increase an estimated 937,000 additional Muslim residents.
Texas’s total population grew by 2,560,323 over that period.
On that basis, Muslim population growth would account for approximately 37% of the state’s net population increase.
An extraordinary claim. We are watching the fall of America happen in real time....

The Morning Report — 11/11 /26
Veterans contribute to our communities in unique ways, with their training, leadership, ability to work as a team, and understanding of what it means to serve a cause bigger than themselves. Their military service may be over, but they still have so much to offer our churches, workplaces, neighborhoods, and families. Our country doesn’t ask every soldier to give his or her life, but every one of them is willing to. Long before any deployment, service members give up time with their families, months of training away from home, and the stability of an ordinary career, stepping up so the rest of us don’t have to... ...What does honor look like in practice? It starts with how we raise the next generation. At American Heritage Girls, one area of focus for troop life is cultivating a girl’s citizenship as a member of her community, state, and country. That same instinct should shape how every family raises its kids. Teach your children why service members’ positions demand reverence, and why that reverence shouldn’t fade once they’ve retired from the service. At a time when we feel divided over nearly everything, Americans can build the kind of unity that begins by honoring those who have faithfully protected and served.Well, that is a nice sentiment indeed, but as last week's midterms might very well foreshadow, this may be the last official Veterans' Day holiday we actually celebrate or are allowed to celebrate considering those who "WON" the majority last week view this nation and its armed forces as the moral equivalent of the Waffen SS! And while we're on the subject of what happened last week, just freaking wow!
In 2024, Kamala Harris won 4,835,250 votes in Texas. In 2026, Gina Hinojosa, the gubernatorial candidate from her party, picked up 5,230,929 votes and James Talarico, the Senate candidate, scored 5,445,156 votes. Where did Texas Democrats find 395,679 more voters than in a presidential election? In October, Texas Secretary of State Robert Howden announced the big news. Texas had hit a record 19 million registered voters or specifically, 19,041,684 voters. Not only was Texas up a whopping 17,119,632, nearly 2 million from its 2022 numbers, but there were now 418,000 more voters than there had been in 2024. . . . The outcome in Texas was the work of a giant political machine in which tax-exempt foundations passed along money to non-profit groups which then funded local non-profit community activist groups: some of which benefit from government funding aimed at helping minorities. Money moved, sometimes illegally, between C3s and C4s and PACs, violating laws against using non-profits for electioneering, while being focused on one thing: registering voters. How many of those voter registrations were legitimate? How many of those registered were actually citizens? How many local community organizers ensured that they would be getting more grants by finding dead voters or voters who didn’t exist?Not a smidgen of corruption or fraud and any suggestion that our elections aren't completely fair and free of fraud is MAGA republican propaganda!!! Elsewhere, this utter abomination is yet another foretaste of what we are facing.
With the stroke of a pen, California Governor Gavin Newsom has delivered a devastating blow to the rule of law and a cruel insult to the families of murder victims.Well, looking to 2028, with Greaseball Newsom as a potential frontrunner to be at the top of the ticket in the Democrat Party, I had the thought that with this complete debasement of morality and the rule of law Newsom might have spawned a potential Willie Horton 2.0 advertisement! Of course this presupposes that he actually does win the nomination and that the GOP along with whoever is at the top of our ticket has the brains to weaponize this and use it to devastating effect as Bush the elder did against Michael Dukakis. It also presupposes that the Democrats won't steal 2028 like they did 2020 and now several key states last week, and if Texas' fully communized state government decides to join that insane national Poplar vote compact, the Electoral College is effectively abolished and we're screwed, seemingly, forever. Thankfully, we have the GOP.
Senate Republicans chose current Majority Leader John Thune as minority leader in January. Oof.

Yet I see from the Executive branch only lamentations about the probability of the fraud, with vague, plaintive calls for someone else (i.e., congress) to take action.
In any case, if the proposition is correct, two years are all the remain to save the electoral process and, essentially, the country.

The process for removal of federal judges needs to be simpler: a simple majority in the house and 51 votes in the senate.
Behavior that constitutes 'bad': Treating The Constitution as a living, breathing document that automatically changes with the times. Ignoring the black letter, clear meaning of the law. Blatant political bias.

Texas has generally only required a Drivers license and/or a utility bill to register to vote , but no proof of citizenship. That was an error that none of the Republican leaders cared to notice.
There are currently 5.8 million resident legal aliens in Texas, and the vast majority are from Hispanic countries. Would not have been difficult to focus on this group and find a million or more votes.

The Nazi's SA was only one of many paramilitaries fielded by Germany's political parties at the time.
When Hitler was named Chancellor, he turned the SA into police, granting state power to their violence while criminalizing the others.
He also nationalized the police, which until then had been creatures of their respective state governments.
All of a sudden, violence became a Nazi monopoly and they applied it most broadly against their enemies, except this time with official, legal approval.
Nazi violence became state violence. What was prohibited became mandatory.

I say this respectfully, but in light of your statement there must be reasons for you to continue living where you do, yes? The reasons have to outweigh the political and cultural realities around you?

I'll have to trust DR.
Another data point is that the entire GOP Senate and all of their X accounts were bodied for the past few days and particularly after they reaffirmed their utter fecklessness and uselessness by keeping Thune as their flag bearer in fighting the MAGA agenda.
Even Texas Ted the Podcaster got severely ratioed. He will be relieved of his side-hustle as a "Senator" soon.

Every corrupt organization does this. Even the Republican Senate Fund texted a "survey" where the only way that it will be accepted is if you send them money. Even after they proved that they are hated by Americans. Even after they voted for Thune.
So I sent them a STOP.

Thank you. I have relatives who farm, in a deep blue state ( Illinois) and are held captive to the state because of what they would extract from them if they contemplated selling out and moving away. Plus, the rootedness that comes with farming. The solution of simply bugging out is not as simple as it can look when drawing it up on paper, so to speak.

Even if only some percentage of it gets passed, nationally, there's a lot of preparations being made in the blue states to accelerate their agenda in '28.
They take the White House then, and consolidate their state holdings, it's probably over for the rest of us. It's almost as if they had A Plan™

I like this theme.
Instead of focusing in on watching nature take its course in destroying the former United States and reverting society to international norms of misery, wickedness, violence and utter depravity to cite historic events that are thinly veiled prophecies of where we are going.
Its a great use of history that the schools, generations ago, decided did not serve the demonic purpose of turning the entire globe into chaos.

I live in SC. I can't stress enough how many unrelenting swarms of people seem to have moved here in the upstate in the past 10 years. It's been constant. And now the results of that are coming to fruition. We will be stuck with Annie Andrews until she croaks or moves on. Guaranteed. As Jr. Black has noticed, and it seems to hold some water, once a red state starts slipping, then comes the first Democrat US Senator, and then slowly the chipping away at the rest of the state unfolds. GA is a prime example. Just look at what's happened to them in the past several years. They are but one of many examples.

Let me tell you a little secret:
Amnesty passed over a decade ago. In fact, as part of the Amnesty deal, illegals get automatic reduced sentencing, tax exemption, free medical, full voting rights, entitlement perqs, and waiving of all licensing, permitting and insurance requirements.
They didn't have to write it down on paper because everyone knows that a piece of paper doesn't have anything to do with reality—they just agreed to moving illegals and other foreigners ahead of you and not bother to notify you.

Yet... on various social media sites like Facebook, you'd think otherwise. The crowing from people here about something that happened in Texas, or North Carolina, or wherever is off the charts. And it's laced with threats of violence.
I'm sure it's not all people from around here, and I'm equally sure it's probably bots... but it speaks to how organized the left is with their messaging. While not illegal, it certainly played a factor in the midterm outcomes. We (Republicans in general) need to work on that.

I believe that post-modernism and post-enlightenment thinking has removed from today's vocabulary any ability to intellectually process spiritual warfare.
So there are only secular half-baked mechanical reasons to attempt to explain spiritual phenomena.
The Scriptures are rich in associating the rise and fall of empires, kings and nations due to spiritual influences. Not just one-offs, but a continuous live stream of change.
Start with the Garden, pass by Egypt and Pharoah's heart being hardened by YHWH, watch as the Assyrians, Phoenecians, Medes, Persia, Greece and eventually Rome all find their births and deaths through spiritual forces. The parable of the soils is really not different.
It just might be true that spirits introduced and nurtured what appears to be a well orchestrated turn in the former US's destiny.

I always thought TX would eventually turn blue because demography is destiny. But I thought it would be via the “chipping away” method. Not flip a switch and I wake up in CA. Every state office, TX supremes and the TX court of appeals? It was straight up fraud across the country with some legit reasons in the mix (e.g. legal hispanics who bought the ICE will drag you out of your home scare).

Specific to Texas
She treats Texas results (including James Talarico’s performance relative to prior Democratic candidates) as consistent with historical midterm/wave patterns rather than evidence of unique or decisive fraud. Talarico outpolling Kamala Harris’s 2024 Texas numbers has a clear parallel in Beto O’Rourke outpolling Hillary Clinton in 2018. Large swings among young voters and Hispanics (which she had flagged in pre-election data) and heavy early-voting shares align with the NGO turnout machine she documents nationally, not with machine hacks or midnight dumps.
Viral claims of an FBI raid uncovering tens of thousands of fraudulent Democratic ballots in a Houston warehouse were widely circulating around Election Day 2026 but were independently debunked by the FBI, local election officials, and fact-checkers...
In short, her consistent position is data-driven skepticism of the most dramatic fraud narratives while highlighting real vulnerabilities (lax verification, NGO scale, opacity) and urging focus on institutional reform rather than post-election non-certification.

We are living in a post-ordered society. "Legitimate" has lost its initial definition and is now more loosely understood as This Is How It Is. Adding "truly" doesn't change it. Maybe, to borrow from Scripture "Just Justice" and Whoopie Goldberg "Rape Rape" to distinguish it from today's redefinitions.
Vote fraud is the Perfect Crime because more often than not, it rewards the perpetrator and there is zero possibility that it would be prosecuted. Its a crime that should be done Each And Every Time there is a opportunity, otherwise you are just a Loser and will have to suffer from the tyranny of those who leveraged it to their own advantage.

In October 2009, during the Obama administration, WJR radio reporter Ken Rogulski interviewed people in line at Detroit’s Cobo Center (in Michigan) who were seeking financial help with mortgage and utility bills under stimulus-related or similar government assistance programs. People in the crowd commonly referred to it as “Obama money.”
The key exchange with one woman was:
Rogulski: “Why are you here?”
Woman: “To get some money.”
Rogulski: “What kind of money?”
Woman: “Obama money.”
Rogulski: “Where’s it coming from?”
Woman: “Obama.”

I don't think social media makes people dumber, as much as it just reinforces ignorance.
Prior to social media, if you had a dumb idea, it remained with you or your small social circle. And people would think "I think X, but pretty much everyone else around me thinks Y, so I must be wrong." And the dumb idea is contained to minimal people.
After social media, now these dumb ideas are spread across the country and across the world. And then it's just an avalanche. As then you get some people thinking "well, wow, if this many people think this, it must be true" and join with the other people with dumb ideas.
Then there's websites and podcasts and TikToks and Instagrams and whatever else out there reinforcing all of these dumb ideas.

From above,"...whoever is at the top of our ticket has the brains to weaponize this and use it to devastating effect as Bush the elder did against Michael Dukakis."
Great point! The 1988 presidential campaign of "Bush the Elder" has been widely studied in political science as a masterclass in aggressive, highly effective campaign strategy. (In fact, so widely studied it appears the script has now been flipped against the GOP during several presidential election cycles.) 🤷♀️
What I most remember running up to the presidential election was that Mikhail Gorbachev, then leader of the Soviet Union, shifted global perception of the Soviet Union by introducing policies like openness & restructuring, releasing political prisoners, and engaging in friendly nuclear disarmament summits with Reagan.
He was extremely popular in Western media.
OTOH, George H.W. Bush had served as Director of Central Intelligence (CIA) Jan. '76 to Jan. '77 under President Gerald Fold.
During his 1988 campaign and subsequent presidency, critics on ALL sides frequently targeted his intelligence background, pointing to the agency's history of covert
Posted by: L - No nic... at November 11, 2026 09:44 AM (NFX2v)
Because Gorbachev was actively humanizing the Soviet Union & dismantling the old Cold War threat, a unique rhetorical window opened for domestic critics. For years, it became common to hear that Bush's past at the CIA represented a greater threat to global peace and democratic ideals than Gorbachev's rapidly reforming of Soviet government. (The Miller Center, more.)
While the evil spymaster label stuck from his worse critics, Bush's foreign policy approval skyrocketed after the resignation of Gorbachev on Christmas Day 1991, and U.S. victory in the 1991 Persian Gulf War.
His approval rating had reached a historical 89%!
The U.S. entered an economic recession in 1990. Though the recession officially ended in March 1991, the economic recovery was slow and painful, as they tend to be.
Despite his popularity in many areas, Bush Sr.'s 1992 re-election campaign was derailed by a sluggish domestic economy, a famously broken tax promise, an aggressive third-party challenger, and a perceived disconnect from everyday Americans.

👉🏻The sluggish economy and "It's the Economy, Stupid" made famous by Carville for Bill Clinton's election.
"In order to keep the campaign on message, Carville hung a sign in Bill Clinton's Little Rock campaign headquarters that read:
Change vs. more of the same.
The economy, stupid.
Don't forget health care.[4]" Wikipedia
👉🏻 Bush's 1988, Broken "Read My Lips" Tax Pledge. In 1990, he broke the pledge & negotiated a budget compromise with congressional Democrats that included tax hikes.
👉🏻Ross Perot effect. Perot won 18.9% of the popular vote.
👉🏻 "Out of touch" vs. Clinton's "youthful" charisma.
The critics summarized Bush Sr. failed to articulate a compelling domestic vision.

Top Story
- Zen 6 is here but not for you. (WCCFTech)
Only the server versions are shipping now, but that tells us pretty much how the desktop versions will perform, because the CPU chiplets used are identical; only the I/O die changes.
And what we see from the CPU chiplets is 27% better performance at the same clock frequency, 10% higher clock frequencies (and desktop chips may go higher than that), and 50% more cores - twice the total performance.
Also interesting is the Zen 6c low-power chiplet. Unlike Intel's low-power cores it is functionally identical to the full Zen 6, just implemented in a denser, power-optimised layout. But where Zen 5c had 16 cores with 2MB of cache per core - twice as many cores but half the cache per core of Zen 5 - Zen 6c has 32 cores per chiplet and 4MB of L3 cache per core. 128MB in total, which is more than a desktop 9800X3D chip.
And the 32 cores all being on a single die means there is no added latency between the cores and between the cores and the cache. Or not much, anyway; L3 cache accesses look to be about 10 cycles slower than Zen 6.
As to when we'll see Zen 6 on the desktop - that's unanswered. Engineering samples for the laptop versions are already circulating, so it's up to AMD's marketing, so somewhere between tomorrow and never.
- Tom's Hardware found a 93% performance gain comparing a 256-core Zen 6c with a 192 core Zen 5c. (Tom's Hardware)
So right in the ballpark of 2x.

What MEXT does is try to read the pages back in before they are actually needed so this doesn't kill performance - and reportedly works pretty well. It's still slower than having enough DRAM, but it's faster than traditional swap mechanisms.

- Terafab, the SpaceX / Tesla chipmaking join venture - is targeting production of a million wafers per month by 2032. (Tom's Hardware)
That's great, but if those aren't memory wafers it doesn't do us much good.
They are memory wafers? Or at least, 70% of them?
Well... Good.
- How does Apple's top-of-the-line M5 Ultra compare with Nvidia's RTX Spark on local AI? (Tom's Hardware)
Like a bug, you say?
On the one hand, a 256GB M5 Ultra Mac Studio costs twice as much as the 128GB RTX Spark for twice the performance. On the other hand, there is a 96GB model that is only a little more expensive than the RTX Spark, and if your LLM fits it still delivers twice the performance.

It's still slower than having enough DRAM, but it's faster than traditional swap mechanisms.
Perfect for high RAM use & churn applications; gaming, video and media production, animation, 3D Modeling & CAD, etc.
If they ever release this to desktop.
It might eat up some SSDs though with that much data write.
I guess that's why MEXT is coming to data centers first, it appears.

And is she why you can't buy an RTX 5090?
She's an OK looking Chinese TV anchor who moved on to AI data center acquisition manager who managed to bang one of the wealthiest men in the word to get GPU chips at the behest of the CCP.
I can't blame her for the price of 5090s but I hope she can take credit for Jensen Huang resigning sometime in the next several months.
Not because I dislike the man, he's a genius at creating graphics processors and it lucked into AI because of the power, It's because I think he's too greedy, arrogant, and it's coming back to haunt him and his company.
All that circular funding Nvidia has been doing to keep the bubble going the past few years is going to bite hard if the customers start going under.
That could mean cheaper 6090s, though, so I'm always looking for that silver lining.

That's great, but if those aren't memory wafers it doesn't do us much good.
They are memory wafers? Or at least, 70% of them?
Well... Good.
If Elon is producing any of his own CPU chips that's one less foundry like TSMC or Intel that's got to do it.
If his long term plan works out, all of those fabs are going to help bring prices down a lot.
Let's just hope he isn't railroaded by the Dems for something before he can get there.
This is an interesting part:
How TSMC might fit in remains open. TSMC says any fab with its involvement has to be run by TSMC, while Musk said his own companies would build and operate Terafab, a scenario which could leave TSMC as a space tenant. At least the spending plans are known: $16.8 billion for the first phase in Grimes County, Texas, with total investment of up to $119 billion if later phases proceed. A pilot plant could be completed as early as July 2027.

Mostly rural Southeast Texas, population of around 30,000.
Most notable for Novosota, the biggest town, having a notable resident by the name of Chuck Norris until earlier this year.
The county did some luring:
Grimes County commissioners approved a full property tax abatement package to create incentives to attract SpaceX's Terafab semiconductor manufacturing complex to the area, in the vicinity of Gibbons Creek Reservoir, originally built for the now-decommissioned Gibbons Creek Steam Electric Station.
But Elon could have gotten a similar deal in most rural Texas counties.
I think he liked the name Grimes because he has three children with a woman named Grimes; X Æ A-Xii ("X") born May 4, 2020, Exa Dark Sideræl ("Y") born via surrogate in December 2021, Techno Mechanicus ("Tau") born via surrogate in June 2022.
If Elon could rename it to X County, he probably would but he'll take Grimes as second best.

Sounds like they really searched hard for where data center workers eat lunch.
I'm telling you, if I've only got an hour for lunch I'm probably not going to a sit down joint in nearby Whitehaven but grabbing a sandwich or something fast to eat to get back on time.
I also like how they went to one black joint in town are trying to intimate that even if Musk has brought jobs to town he's a racists for not giving black jobs so they can eat the "The warm African cuisine at Bala’s Bistro" - which seems kinda odd that the best they can come up with if that the food was warm.

The 729-foot freighter, loaded with over 26,000 tons of taconite pellets and bound from Superior, Wisconsin, toward Detroit, went down about 17 miles north-northwest of Whitefish Point. All 29 crew members were lost. No distress call. No survivors. No bodies recovered. Captain Ernest McSorley’s final radio message to the nearby Arthur M. Anderson: “We are holding our own.” Minutes later, the Fitz was gone. The legend lives on. Gordon Lightfoot made sure of that. The lake never gives up her dead. Fair winds and following seas to the crew of the Edmund Fitzgerald. ⚓️ (Sound On)— Blue & White Grit USMC Style (AKA Tom) (@TriPSU91) November 10, 2026
If you search, “The Wreck of The Edmund Fitzgerald” on Google a bell will appear. If you click on it you’ll be able to ring it 29 times for each man that went down with the ship. https://t.co/Ksz9gdD2oq

Starting [Today] at 1 AM, we’ll be sharing the real radio transmissions from the night the SS Edmund Fitzgerald was lost on Lake Superior, 50 years ago. These posts will follow the timeline as it happened, from the first reports of rough seas to the ship’s final transmission. We share them in remembrance of the 29 men who were lost, and in respect for all who work the Great Lakes.
Edmund Fitzgerald in Real Time
In 2025, we commemorated the final voyage of the Mighty Fitz and the 29 souls lost on board, on the 50th anniversary, and we will do so again this November-----

Sure - why not?
Highway wildlife crossings are evidently a thing. I'd like to see one in person. The world's largest wildlife crossing opens soon. Here's how to see the cute animals.
Soon California drivers traversing the 101 freeway won't be the only ones commuting in comfort. As hundreds of thousands of people zoom down the multi-lane highway (assuming there's no traffic jam!), their animal counterparts — the wildlife population that lives in northern Los Angeles County — will be similarly at ease. That's because officials will finally unveil the completed Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing, a large, vegetated overpass that will help animals cross traffic safely and comfortably move across the land split by asphalt and vehicles. It is the largest wildlife crossing in the world. *** Over the last week, biologists have been installing a series of wildlife cameras near the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing in the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area to track animal populations before the crossing officially opens on Dec. 2. By the time of opening, scientists and nature watchers will be able to monitor its visitors via 50 cameras and four thermal video cameras. Project leads told the Los Angeles Times that the cameras' photo stream will be available to the public. For now, live video feeds will only be available to researchers for security reasons. The cameras are already picking up hopeful moments, including the path's first visitor: A single coyote trotting up the side of the currently unfinished path, shielded by the cover of night and the lack of blinding headlights.
Colorado wildlife overpass cut vehicle-animal collisions by 91%, report finds
Colorado officials have tracked herds of elk, bears, pronghorn and even northern leopard frogs ambling across its new wildlife overpass. According to a newly released report, the overpass, which acts as a bridge over a busy stretch of interstate, has helped cut wildlife-vehicle collisions by 91% since its completion 10 months ago. The overpass is the centerpiece of a larger system built by the state to assist wildlife crossing the highway, which also includes miles of 8-ft-tall fencing and five large wildlife underpasses. “One of the most heartwarming moments for me was when [Colorado department of transportation] sent me a picture of an elk mama taking her calf under [Interstate-25],” Brandon Marette, a wildlife biologist for Colorado parks and wildlife, told CBS News. “All came to fruition in that one moment. That elk with her calf was just standing there in safety.” *** This region of Colorado is known for high movement of large game. State officials say that wildlife underpasses and tunnels often don’t work for big animals, such as bull elk, because they restrict mobility and don’t accommodate their antlers.
“Elk and pronghorn like these big open structures where they can see for miles in each direction,” Chuck Attardo, the environmental manager for Colorado department of transportation, told CBS News. “For decades, pronghorn going from Trinidad to Greenland were looking for a place to cross on I-25. And when we open this up, we have pronghorn on video using the overpass, and for the first time in decades they’re coming over here to the west side.” While large game animals have been taking advantage of the crossing, officials have also tracked smaller wildlife using the corridor, including mule deer, coyotes, rabbits, frogs and the threatened Preble’s meadow jumping mouse.

Well, I don't think Lightfoot has a problem with enunciation. I think the problem lies with listeners who are used to poppy love songs that run for 2:24. Fitzgerald is more of an epic poem, set to music. It demands that one pays attention.

So I guess we just play the percentages and primary them all.
Not Ron Johnson, who walked out on the vote in protest. And maybe not the handful who wanted to postpone the vote.

That seems like a great plan. Let's just throw those *bastards* out. They knew damn well what "We The People" wanted, and what we deserved. Thune is a God-Damned traitor, and I say that having told all of you that I'm trying not to curse. But he deserves the title. And so does EVERY.SINGLE.REPUBLICAN.SENATOR that decided that NONE OF US matter, and that the God-Damned traitor should be our senatorial leader. Primary every single one of them who made no effort to stand in the way of his re-election.

And people still think the GOP lost Hispanic voters over “deportations”…if that were true, more than 15% of Hispanics would say immigration was their top issue. And 61% of them wouldn’t have voted red.

The first time I heard The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald I didn't know about the actual wreck (yes, shame on me). I thought it was about a very old wreck, like from the 19th century. Gordon Lightfoot wrote a song for the ages -- or maybe shipwrecks are stories for all ages.
Those ratings are the thing that hit me. Men on a team, working, and they all go down despite their best efforts to reach safety.

I said "hell, it's only 2111hrs, I'll just go get some WD-40 from the shed right now," and that's when the trap was sprung!
My 10 month old, very black cat, who is in her first heat, leapt from beneath my shoe rack where she was hiding, out into the inky blackness, like a shadow among shadows.
I went out with a flashlight and a can of food and hunted for 45 minutes, to no avail.
So I went inside, locked the dog in the back of the house, shut off the lights, opened the doors and windows, and laid in wait on the kitchen floor.
"Skritch skritch," I heard from the top of the fence, and thought "that's her, or a raccoon," and ran outside.
It was neither. It was a big, fluffy, horny tomcat. I ran him off, and that flushed her out - she was waiting beneath the car for him and his unbridled cat passion.
She got snatched up and now she is strutting around my house in high dudgeon. She is NOT amused.

It was just the one kid, so I helped by dragging cuttings up so the kid could stuff them in the chipper. It cost, but it took an hour, instead of the 3 days it would have taken to shove it all into a trailer and take it down to the place on the highway that charges 70 bucks a load. I saved a lot of frustration today. And I have a nice pile of chips to mulch my trees and my flower beds with.

I'm pretty sure looking at historical demographics is a waste of time and chasing the past. The left registered 20 million new voters recently across the US including Texas and other states that had huge and hard to explain vote totals by issues alone. And many of those states, including Texas, did not require proof of citizenship to register to vote.
Talarico got more early votes than Paxton got total votes and he spent 2 of the last weeks of the campaign, well, somewhere completely off the campaign trail. He got a historic number of votes for a Democrat running on transing kids, killing the oil and gas industry and making the border a welcome mat for illegals. Oh and hating Christians. In Texas.
Do you really think that was just a bunch of angry Mexicans that got him 5.4 million votes?

No, I have no idea, and I'm not pronouncing on the sub-topic of Hispanic vote switchers (or new voters) and any relationship to immigration issues.
Could well be that the massive Dem vote increase was literally just brute registration/turnout arithmetic. I assume some data guys are going to look into this. Hard to believe an effort this massive slipped under the radar, but I have yet to see a word on it from any political pros (before or after last Tuesday).

Nothing new about special arrangements. SecDef/SecState/CIA bosses have had security added to their home situation for years, goes back to the 80s. But they lived out on the economy so to speak. VP just got Naval Observatory starting with Mondale, until then same deal. Typically security will set up a little outpost on the property, in some cases "harden" the home.

In 1913, there was no radio news, no TV. A few of the Lakes ships might have been equipped with wireless telegraphy, but probably not all. If distress calls went out, the few who heard them would not be able to make it widely known in a short time. Some of the missing ships may not have been deemed lost until days after they failed to arrive at their destination.

If you haven't seen it you should watch the video DataRepublican recently posted. It's a compilation of various NGO leaders explaining exactly what they did to recruit an army of people, paid and volunteer, to register new voters for the 2026 midterms.
Look at the total number of Democrat votes this past election. It was a presidential turnout for the left. And no, they weren't that angry.
Our Congressional reps mostly suck. But we didn't get dragged because of the price of oil. The left found a way to get 20 more million votes than we had. Somehow. Unexpectedly. We better figure out how to play that game or it won't matter what policies are in play.

Here’s a bit of the Texas numbers.
From the census bureau, 2026 Texas population numbers:
Hispanic/Latino : 41.7%
White/Non-Hispanic: 37%
Black/Asian/Other: 21%
The election breakdown this year, in Texas (roughly)
Hispanic: 75/25 in favor of Dems
Anglo/Non Hispanic: 75/25 GOP
Black/Asian/Other: 80/20 Dem
.75 x .417 =0.313
.25 x .37 =0.0925
.80 x .21 =0.168
.31 + .09 + .16 =0.56
That’s how Texas Dems wiped out the GOP by double digit margins this time.

Also look at the number of states that don't require proof of citizenship to register to vote. Texas is one of them until Jan 1, 2027.
If you remember weeks before the election the DOJ sued CA to sequester 20,000 votes that they suspected were not American voters. That's a fraction of the overall numbers but even then CA fought it and leftist judges supported the state.
More than half of US states don't require proof of citizenship to register to vote. Some don't even require ID to vote. Blue states fought the DOJ for over a year about turning over their voter rolls for bullshit reasons.
This was the reason.

Exactly. It blows me away how many people are just willing to go along with TEXAS suddenly deciding that they wanted a gay vegetarian to represent them. How many of those "go along" folks have ever been to Shamrock, Texas? Or Canadian, Texas? Or Pampa, Texas? If you had ever been there you might have a different view of the alleged outcome.

Kind of missing the point. If a county historically voted 10 to 1 in on direction and last election went to 10 to 2 then it moved direction.
Nobody who claims this was all about the price of eggs and Iran ever explains how Talarico got 5.4 million votes when Beto the fake Mexican got 2 million fewer in 2022. Paxton didn't lose support, he got about average for a Republican in a midterm senate race in Texas. How did the weirdo who wasn't nearly as nationally celebrated as Beto find 2 million more votes?
Probably the same way Joe got 81 million votes.

I said during the campaign that Hinojoza couldn’t win because she wasn’t even running a campaign. I was wrong on both counts.
Gina Hinojoza ran what was in retrospect one of the most brilliant insurgent campaigns ever. It was all on Spanish language media, internet and radio, and us Anglos never even noticed it. She and her people pushed the line that ICE was coming for ALL of them, didn’t matter if they were citizens or not. Abbot never noticed this campaign so no Republicans ever even challenged this claim, so it went unrefuted.
From 2024 to 2026, average Hispanic vote showed a +29 point shift in favor of the Dems, and the 14 Hispanic majority border counties showed a + 38 point shift. And Hispanic turnout was the heaviest ever seen in a Texas election.
We thought Talarico vs Paxton was the most important race. We were wrong. Hinojoza vs Abbot was the race that drove everything, and she kicked Abbot’s ass.

And that's for when "we" even fight, which is about as rare as a Donald John Trump birth. Nothing is over but I do fear we are back where the GOP wants us. 2014 with Cryin' John Boehner looking down on us tearfully... for America.

On the one hand it does not pass the smell test that Republicans simply didn't notice something the opponent said 600,000 times just because it was in spanish.
On the other hand maybe that's actually too believable.
But even *that* is usually indication of a hoax explanation. Something that sounds too believable is usually fake. And so here we have something that is both too unbelievable to be fake and too believable to be real.

Not sure I get your A to B.
Why did Texas allow people to register to vote without proof of citizenship? A law was finally passed in 2025 to stop that but the enforcement doesn't happen until next year. That was one of those huge mistakes.
Far too often people keep focusing on election machines instead of looking for loophole in the law. The left does.
Why do you think the Motor Voter laws were passed and Democrats push so hard to give illegals drivers licenses? Why did the Save America Act get over 80% approval, even a majority of Democrats, if people didn't at least worry about illegal voting? Because they obviously do.
Fraud isn't always a blunt instrument. It's more often finding weak spots and exploiting them. That's what early voting is all about.

Finding weak spots and legally exploiting them isn’t fraud, it’s just smart politics, and it’s our fault that our enemies are so much better at it than we are. Abbot was Governor for three terms, had Republican majorities in both houses, and he just started to think about tightening up voter registration last year? Inexcusable.
And why didn’t anyone in his organization pay attention to what Hinojoza was doing? Because he was so sure that he’d be anointed for a 4th term that he never bothered campaigning at all. He thought he no longer needed to make the effort.

But everyone does have to show ID to vote in Texas, most commonly their drivers license.

Unlikely to be illegals, they can’t get drivers license. The loophole is for Legal resident aliens, who CAN get drivers licenses. Official reports say there are currently 5.8 million legal resident aliens in Texas. (Amusingly that’s over 5 times the population of Rhode Island)

Me, because I said that serving on a Jury in the county I was registered to vote in would be a burden as I worked full time in a different county (Jury commissioner conspired with the registrar of voters to have this American of half Mexican heritage removed from the rolls, then put me back on when it was too late for me to file a complaint--being a registered R in a D county had nothing to do with it, I'm sure).
My Dad. Turns out, when he moved in with my brother in Missouri, he could not prove via his birth certificate who he was (birth certificate had his first name as "Baby"...apparently he was removed from the hospital before his name was registered), even though Dad fought in WW2...My brother made a deal with him: Dad wouldn't vote, and my brother would vote the way Dad wanted him to instead of spending all the time required to get Dad's birth certificate fixed so Dad could register to vote.

You’re carefully ignoring the case I’ve been making. We thought Talarico/Paxton was the important race because we care about national politics. But the majority who voted for Hinojoza mostly didn’t care about national politics and didn’t give a damn about the Senate race. They just wanted a cute looking Mexican girl who campaigned for their votes to be Governor, and they voted for all her allies because she said so.

And He said to them, 24 “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able. 25 When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’ and He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you, where you are from,’ 26 then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.’ 27 But He will say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.’ 28 There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and yourselves thrust out. 29 They will come from the east and the west, from the north and the south, and sit down in the kingdom of God. 30And indeed there are last who will be first, and there are first who will be last.”

It seems that there is an expectation for the rule of law and respect for the constitution. As far as the Dems are concerned that ship has sailed and until we get some steel spines who are willing to do what is necessary the decline will continue.

"Democrats have always had a straightforward plan to flip Texas, the way that they had flipped California, Minnesota and other states, and that was to import and settle the maximum number of immigrants and minorities, build taxpayer-funded community organizations to serve them, register them to vote and then get their ballots, while removing any kind of election security."

"IDs are a step forward, but the country is also rife with fake IDs and every other illegal alien abuses IDs to be able to work.
And most crucially, voter registration is electioneering and should be treated that way. No non-profits should be allowed to engage in any step in the election process. No one who is not a government employee or government organization should be allowed to take money in exchange for helping to register voters even if they’re just providing ‘information’ about how to register."

I have a high school classmate who was a cook on the Fitz, as a summer job. He was back in school at the end of August, and avoided being the first in our class to die.
My girlfriend's father was an EVP at Olglebay Norton at the time the Fitz went down. A very grim, quiet house in the days that followed. When Gordon Lightfoot's song came out, he about had a stroke ... the song made him so angry.
Gordon Lightfoot donated all the proceeds from the song to the families of the sailors so he did not profit off the sinking.
And the 1913 storm that led to the 19 ships sinking led to the construction of the Splitrock lighthouse on the shore of Lake Superior. Which still stands, restored, to this day. I had a chance to visit this fall.

What they didn't expect was that Trump would act on what he said he'd do. They thought he was another Bush, "Say things but don't do them."
Anyone who thinks his stance on deporting illegals hurt him doesn't seem to realize that people who were affronted by his treatment of illegals wasn't going to vote for him anyway.
At any rate, I hope he nukes Iran, then Pakistan, then Somalia. Then China. Because I no longer care what happens to the failed experiment known as "the human race."

Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile all told SpaceX "NO" when it asked to use their networks. SpaceX is building its own:
This deal with Grain Management secures 546 paired licenses covering ~100% of the U.S. population, on 800 MHz low band that penetrates straight through walls and already works with almost every smartphone.
Once it closes, SpaceX will hold up to 89 MHz of spectrum in every market it touches.
Elon Musk: "This is the last critical piece of the spectrum puzzle needed for SpaceX to provide complete phone coverage in America."

More disqualifying is gaveling in a pro forma session to prevent Trump from getting recess appointments -- and that appears to be all of the Republican junior Senators, since they rotated it around. But each one, when up for re-election, should get a primary challenger, and should be repeatedly challenged by conservative media to justify their cowardly betrayal of Republican voters' priorities.

At the risk of angering the entire herd, I will offer my pet theory on the recent electoral results.
Young adults are terrified of the Republican party obstructing their sexual promiscuity. The position that a fertilized (one cell) ovum should have personhood rights terrifies them and drives them to the Democrat party. That position would IIRC prohibit the IUD as well as the “morning after pill”.
I suggest reviewing the thoughts of St. Augustine and St. Thomas Acquinas on the topic of “delayed ensoulment”.
Failure to address this issue will prevent Republicans from ever winning a nationwide election again.

Another interesting thing Vera Rubin is looking for is the dreaded "Planet X", another big planet way out there. Current models have it about 5 earth masses, and roughly 300AU distance, orbital period about 7400 years, eccentric and about 16 degrees inclination.
Rubin has about an 80% chance of seeing it the first two years of operation if it exists. They may already found something, but haven't announced it yet. They'll want to go over years and years of archival data before they'd even think of announcing something this big.

While I'd love for Planet X to exist, OTOH, it would tickle me if it didn't. It's possible some of the observations that suggest it exists are just a coincidence, and if they are not, a very big massive ring of debris way out there could do it as well.
Mike Brown, the one who killed Pluto as a planet, and is damned proud of it, is big on this Planet X model predictions. He'd love to get credit for being the one who predicted it. And I've love for him to be dead wrong.

And exoplanets continue to surprise and confound. TOI-561 b turns out to have a atmosphere. This planet is a superearth, about 2 earth masses. What's remarkable is it orbits its star very close, just 0.01 AU, with an orbital period of 10 hours. The star is a G9 class, a little less massive than the sun, still G class but almost K, so yellowish-orange.
It's so close they figured it couldn't possibly have an atmosphere, but it does. It's likely a lava ocean world, temperature around 3000F on the permanent day side, and a nice 1500F on the night side.
Some recent JWST observations have determined it has a high albedo, and a thick atmosphere, which confounds the models.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Tuesday announced that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had apprehended an array of criminal illegal aliens with prior convictions for murder, sexual assault, and drug trafficking. The announcement comes as part of the DHS's "Worst of the Worst" initiative, which aims to spotlight the criminal illegal aliens with the worst criminal records and showcase the danger presented by their presence in American communities. "Under President Trump, there will be no amnesty for illegal aliens, including in sanctuary cities which put illegal aliens over their own citizens. Just yesterday, ICE arrested murderers, sexual predators, and drug traffickers," DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in a statement. "We will continue to carry out the American people's mandate to arrest and deport illegal aliens from our nation." With Trump's second term nearly two years in, federal agencies have deported roughly one million people through convention methods, though agencies have claimed at least 2 million more through voluntary exits. Direct arrests and enforcement efforts have prioritized those with criminal records.

DANGEROUS ILLEGAL MISSING Shageldi Bashimov, an illegal alien from Turkmenistan convicted of aggravated battery, was RELEASED from an Illinois prison despite having an ICE detainer. Bashimov is now wanted by authorities. This is the Democrats' plan for the country: Free foreign criminals who terrorize Americans.
The House Oversight Committee released its final report on Jeffrey Epstein. Surprise, Trump was not involved with the guy he called the cops on.
Stop me if you heard this one before: a Democrat politician lies about his service history and claims Stolen Valor for votes.
Republicans on the House Oversight Committee released the final report Tuesday on the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and the federal government's handling of the criminal case against the late financier. The report is critical of how Democrats on the committee were "obsessed with trying to implicate President Trump and insinuate that he was involved in the crimes of Epstein and Maxwell." Despite these efforts, according to the report, the report did not find any evidence implicating Trump in Epstein's crimes. The report wraps up a 15-month investigation, which included 19 transcribed interviews and depositions with key witnesses, the release of documents from the Department of Justice and the Epstein estate, and an extensive review of financial records. ... The report provides details on how Epstein, a convicted sex offender who died in 2019, and Ghislaine Maxwell, who us serving time in connection with recruiting young women for Epstein, had a network that facilitated the recruitment and control of young women who were abused, as well as how Epstein cultivated relationships with powerful individuals that were leveraged to establish financial and social legitimacy.
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, a Democrat who won re-election on Nov. 3, reportedly lied about his military service, claiming he saw combat when he did not. In his 2015 book, "The Work," Moore claimed that he went through months of pre-deployment training with the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, but Fox Baltimore reported that it found no Army records substantiating that claim. Moore has also claimed to have led troops in combat and to be a paratrooper, but neither are accurate representations of his military service, the outlet said.
His service was good, but he was not in combat, says former supervising officer Retired Lt. Col. James A. "Jamie" Gottschling, the Army officer who supervised Moore, told Fox Baltimore that while Moore served honorably, he wasn't in combat. "Be honest," Gottschling told the outlet when asked what he would say to Moore. "His service in Afghanistan was good. He was a valued member of the brigade staff." But he added, "It's disingenuous to say that you led paratroopers in combat or that you did what would be direct action activities in a combat zone." Neither Moore nor Gottschling responded to inquiries from Just the News. Moore said in his May 2022 victory speech, after first being elected governor in Maryland, that he had "led soldiers into combat in Afghanistan," The Hill reported at the time. Gottschling was able to highlight Moore's actual daily activities in Afghanistan, which did not include combat or leading troops. The Lt. Col. told the outlet that Moore is airborne qualified, but did not train with the brigade before they deployed in 2005, nor did he conduct any training jumps. Moore arrived in Afghanistan on Aug. 15, nearly five months after the 1st Brigade of the storied 82nd Airborne Division had deployed. "He's not a paratrooper," Gottschling told the outlet. Instead, Moore said Gottschling's daily work included analyzing reports from infantry battalions and reconstruction teams, coordinating civilian assistance, and training Afghan officials how to communicate with the public, Fox Baltimore reported. "He did a really good job trying to train the Afghans how to kind of sell their own story," Gottschling said. Gottschling told the outlet that Moore was not part of the brigade's kinetic combat activities, but was involved in "information operations."

Donald Trump’s secret farewell letter to Joe Biden has finally been revealed nearly six years after he left the White House, exposing a surprisingly warm message to his bitter political rival.
The president praised Biden’s love for America and encouraged him to make history, despite publicly refusing to accept his defeat in the 2020 election.

It's hilarious Fen. I went to Adoration today and I was praying for my ancestors and I remembered that I am 9% Jewish. I, a Catholic, am also a descendant of Abraham. And I voted for Trump, three times.
Am I the only one to find this wonderful and amusing?

"Airborne Qualified" means he made it through the basic parachutist course, did his five jumps, and gets to wear the flying ice cream cone badge on his uniform.
To be on "Jump Status" and collect the extra danger pay associated with it you have to make a certain number of jumps per a certain time period.

I hope there's film of Joepy "running." Will look later.
Husband is making nachos for his demented wife he adores when probably not wanting to kill me. I've had two glasses of white whine, the second voiding of my Friday rule.
A day of getting nothing done after being really great yesterday!
Then we had a hiccup of him not finding my mother's last will last night and a fubar of uncertainty. All is well as we figured it out (he was afraid he was still executor). We don't think he is except for my father's trust.
My father's trust is for reasons unknown separte from hers and I am waiting for the demented wife of my brother to mess with me after the funeral someday.
Plus the weird family showing up that will force me and one son into a restroom to try to stifle inappropriate laughter and probably trumpet or snorting suppressed laughter. The tears will fit in, I guess.
It's all good!!! It's all going to be fine!

Mike Johnson Takes Accountability and Steps Down from House Leadership; Jim Jordan Elected to Replace Him
Mike Johnson did what McConnell's protege and butt-boy John Thune refuses to do: He stepped down from leadership.
Jim Jordan was elected in his place. I'm not thrilled about that either, but at least someone demonstrated some accountability.House Republicans on Tuesday selected Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, to lead Republican lawmakers in the minority in the next Congress. Members of the conference chose between him and Majority Leader Steve Scalise. The vote was 106 for Jordan and 73 for Scalise, according to Punchbowl News. House Speaker Mike Johnson decided to step down from leadership after the party's loss in the midterms.In an update: One of the world's richest communists, the pro-rape Venture Socialist Bernie Sanders, declares that Schumer must go. First thing I've agreed with him on in years.
Overton
@Overton_News And...here...we...go. This is going to be a bloodbath between the socialists and the establishment within the Democrat Party. 85-year-old socialist Bernie Sanders just publicly came out AGAINST reelecting Chuck Schumer as Senate Democratic Leader in the next Congress. SANDERS: "I personally have known Chuck Schumer for over 30 years. And I like Chuck. Nobody who works harder than Chuck Schumer." "But in my view, the time is now for change." "And I will not be supporting Chuck to be reelected as the Democratic leader."

NEW: Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) says he will not support Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) for Senate Majority Leader. He’s joined by Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) who also says shes a “no” on Schumer “right now”. Slotkin met with Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) yesterday, who has expressed interest in running against Schumer. I asked her about that meeting & if she would support Van Hollen if he ran. She said it was a “productive…great meeting”, but she needs to see a plan and evaluate further.

🚨 NOW: Chuck Schumer just RAGED and demanded a trial for SecWar Pete Hegseth in the Senate, and REMOVAL from office
NOT HAPPENING! "America needs a serious Secretary of Defense, not a WANNABE WARLORD! Republicans need to listen to the American people. End this war. Put Pete Hegseth on trial before the Senate!" "It's time for Republicans to decide where their loyalty lies. With Trump, or with the country they swore an oath to protect!" "GET HIM OUT!" 🤡 Pete, Trump, Vance and a flurry of Republicans have made CLEAR this sham impeachment is not going to have any actual effect. Our SecWar is for warfighters and they can't STAND IT— Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) November 10, 2026
House Speaker Mike Johnson NUKES pathetic RINO Rep. Thomas Massie (KY): “Thomas Massie is a disgruntled congressman, and the impeachment effort is a political gambit for attention.”
“I think Secretary Hegseth did an extraordinary job. I watched most of the press conference. I thought he did very well. I expect that we’re going to defeat that one way or the other, and we’ll get on with the business.” “The idea that you would impeach the Secretary of War at a time of international conflict sends a terrible message to our enemies and our allies, and we are not going to play that game. You don’t impeach a Cabinet secretary lightly. They had no due process. There’s nothing that went into this. This is just purely for people to get attention, and it’s shameful.” He’s right! https://t.co/5Heus2I0oV— RedWave Press (@RedWavePress) November 10, 2026

The reality is, we had a bare majority and the usual RINOs in the Senate killed everything.
Even if the SAVE act had passed, same exact result. And the BBB was a lot of bills into one.
Im just curious, what specific law should have been passed that would have changed things?

I think this is how it used to work. DSA are in da house, now.
I'm not sure this is going to end the way Dems are used to. I think a hostile takeover is more than possible.
But the international cash dams are now busted open. I think it's also possible that some of these Dem Oldies will insist on 10 times their usual bribe money, stocks in whatever companies and industries get chosen as the next money laundering scams, prominent positions on boards of those companies for their children and grandchildren, book deals, tv shows... all the ways these folks have been getting paid off in plain sight, and nobody realized it. They're old, and getting tired. It's hard to give up power, but lots of money and a few subtle threats on your life can be very persuasive.
I expect many RINOs will be there collecting, too. Or trying to. They might not be needed anymore, so they may not be getting the payouts they were hoping for. I wish I could be there to see it.

The issue is early voting. It should be a laser focus to get Republicans voting early. That is goal number 1 above anything else. This is where the Dems kicked out asses.

He will be until he isn't. He is too old to keep his position by way of the muslims deciding they don't need the Dems any more, probably, but I am also sure the DSA takeover will happen before that anyways at least on the national level. Michigan, who knows.
The old 1968 zombies in the Dem party are on their way out, being supplanted just as they kicked out those before them. The question is whether the cheating apparatus and funding will remain in their control. I think it will.
Over in muslim-land, they likely know they aren't going to pull off a sweep as quick as they did in europe, so they just have to keep the pressure up and be the squeakiest wheel aomthe proga keep pandering to them until later demographics finishes the issue. Parts of NA are lost to them until they are literally kicked out. You will find no examples - none, not one - of muslim populations being compatible long term with what we consider civilization.

You can't run on not starting new wars and then start (and fail to finish - nobody gave a shit about Maduro getting snatched) new wars and expect voters to turn out for you.
Trump's idealism that spurred him to run in the first place works against him here. Middle red america largely doesn't give a shit about blue shitholes getting a nuke or two, and the millenials and younger that got the shit end of the GWOT want nothing to do with the middle east and aren't keen on anything they perceive as sticking our neck out for Isreal.

After Ace of Spades' refusal to step down from his position following the historic shellacking in the midterms, Thomas Massie led calls for Ace to be impeached by a coalition of Islamocommunist Democrats and Tuq'r Qatarlson Republicans and to face trial in the Senate.
Only eight GOP Senators called for a delay in the trial as John Thune rushed to push a vote.
However, before he could be detained by US Marshalls, Ace was extracted by a phase two Delta Force assault team led by Stephen Miller and he is expected to resume his activities from a server farm located on an Israeli submarine.

Hey @grok, how many pieces of legislation that Thomas Massie has sponsored have been signed into law during his 14 years in Congress?
---
Grok @grok
Zero. Over his 14 years in Congress, trackers including PolitiTrack, LegiList, and http://Congress.gov show Massie as primary sponsor of roughly 98–126 bills and resolutions, none of which became law. He has cosponsored measures that did (such as the Epstein Files Transparency Act) and seen some of his ideas incorporated into larger packages.

The silver lining in the disaster of last week was the California rejection of a billionaire tax. As retarded as they are in the state they’re not quite THAT retarded. So this tells me there isn’t as much appetite for mass tax increases nationally as we fear.
Posted by: Sandy Cocazio Ortez at November 10, 2026 06:07 PM (GW+4b)
I'm just waiting with a case of popcorn for when the CA Supreme Court rules that rejecting a billionaire tax is unconstitutional, and the commie cocksucker CA billionaires start caterwauling about how much it costs for a tuneup on their Bentley.
If the CA GOP had any hair on their balls, they'd introduce 180% taxes on private jet ownership AND rentals. Not to mention, mandating that private jet passengers at CA airports have to go through public airport gates, complete with TSA screening by some 83 IQ Somali immigrant in a blue uniform.

Taking away the carved out congressional districts might have motivated more blacks than the GOP anticipated.
They didn’t remove Clyburns seat here in SC and looks like we are going to lost the 1st Congressional district in the Lowcountry by less than a percentage point.
A lot of transplants around here may have helped the Dems but that ~%30 black voting bloc helps.

Jennifer Welch Bitches That She's Being "Cancelled" Just For Encouraging Assassinations and Murder
Whoops. I thought I posted this an hour ago.
Before that: Glenn Reynolds thinks about the Democrats' Assassination Culture.Welch, who calls for speakers she disapproves of to be M U R D E R E D, is whining that she's being "cancelled" for dancing right up to the edge of a serious crime. Thirty of her sponsors have announced they will no longer associate with this bloodthirsty botox-drunk witch
Dave Chappelle joins the pack of lefty haters with a fetish for political violence
It's been heartwarming to see, once these contentious midterm elections were past us, how the Democrats rolled up their sleeves and got right to work on delivering the things they'd promised: affordability, equal opportunity and world peace. Haha, just kidding. Instead they immediately started seeking revenge. ... For all their "Love Trumps Hate" sloganeering, what we've seen from leftists lately is pretty much all hate, aimed at anyone who counters their agenda -- not just Trump, but his supporters, staff and donors. Comedian Dave Chapelle's ghoulish remarks about the murder of Charlie Kirk are typical. ... Kirk paid the ultimate price for expressing conservative principles, and Chappelle is willing to approve that publicly -- to his audience's glee. Meanwhile, NYU professor Scott Galloway last week damned Trump ally Elon Musk as a "traitor to the West" and called for his public execution, a la Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. If we're going to start executing traitors to the West, I've got a little list. . . But Musk isn't on it, and Galloway might not like who is. ... Sarah Palin was accused of murder for putting out a list of "targeted" congressional districts; Jeffries' comment is at least as much of a threat. If I had to guess, the Venn diagram of people who would cheer if Trump were assassinated, and those whose lawns bear "Hate Has No Home Here" signs, is pretty close to a circle. All this is unspeakably dangerous, of course. You can't have a democracy without civil society, and you can't have a civil society in which one large chunk of it is salivating at the prospect of murdering the other. But that's what we see today, with much of "mainstream" culture egging it on. And it's not just that this language is ugly and divisive: Democrats are actively promoting violence with this heated rhetoric. They are creating -- deliberately, I think -- a climate in which unstable people are encouraged to commit acts of violence against their political enemies, without leaving obvious fingerprints. On Friday, when an armed-to-the-teeth Venezuelan migrant was arrested near the White House saying he'd been "hearing voices telling him to kill President Trump," my first thought was: "Were those voices on MS-NOW, Bluesky, or on Jennifer Welch's podcast?"

@WesternLensman Jennifer Welch says her advertisers were "harassed" into dropping the show. "Sadly, some of the advertisers have caved. But we still have other advertisers, and we're still standing." Little companies are apparently stepping in to try to save them. They read a message from a brewery in Wisconsin that called Charlie Kirk "an awful human being" and wanted to help sponsor the show. Welch called that "so sweet," then did a shout out for the company for free. At last count, around 30 sponsors have dropped the podcast. It's not because they were harassed. It's because these women are toxic. But hey if you're a little company, just drop these hateful hags a message bashing Charlie. Maybe that'll get you a free ad read.
A frantic Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan have a profanity laced meltdown as all their sponsors drop them, admit their ‘apology’ was only meant for themselves.
The hags mentioned how they support “universal human rights” which was apparently used as justification for why they are allowed to curse people and glorify violence. Glad they cleared up that the apology was completely fake.— Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) November 8, 2026
Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan plead with their supporters for financial support after more than 20 sponsors dropped them.
"If you want to sponsor us financially, you can become a member on YouTube... also go buy my book." The women had a nearly 30-minute meltdown over Turning Point following backlash after the two hags giggled profusely at the thought of digging up Charlie Kirk and "doing it" again to him.— Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) November 9, 2026

🚨 NEW: Fox’s Tyrus delivers a POWERFUL response to leftist podcasters laughing at Charlie Kirk ‘joke’:
“One of the greatest compliments to your life’s work is that your enemies are still fighting you after you’re gone… Every time they do that, they’ve just inspired another person to go, ‘Who was that man?’” He adds: “His memory will go on even further by the ones that he made uncomfortable still squirming over him. So his family should take that with a grain of sugar instead of salt,” adds @PlanetTyrus— TV News Now (@TVNewsNow) November 10, 2026

Even if this is somehow related to Hinchcliffe--and I deplore Kill Tony, in general--it's not like he's some spokesperson for the right.
I think, if it is related, it's because Hinchcliffe was white . And this would be another contextless example of "I bet the reaction would be different if the person was white!"
It is unintentionally more ironic that Floyd committed crimes and the white example target didn't.
Additionally, an intensifier to that point, Chappelle fails to understand the difference, because he can't see the difference between law-breaker and not law-breaker over the perception of "racism".

Jennifer's crime was revealing how critical the Powers That Be saw Charlie Kirk's ministry on college campus as a threat to their color revolution.
It was the talk of Leftist circles that Charlie Kirk needed to be eliminated because he was too effective. It was so important that it is burned into her stupid smooth brain and the complete lack of any filter on the circuit between the dysfunctional amygdala and her mouth let it blurt out.

That was enough. People stopped going to their concerts and buying their stuff.
That's enough. That's your money. You can choose to do what you want with it.
I would say to anybody I knew that felt they could go on with Chappelle: If you knew your Locke, and fundamental theory by which the West developed the concept of every right you want to claim, you would know that a right to continue living is the *basis* of every right you want to claim.
Plus, you'd know that Locke leveraged that to the extent that it was received into the conversation off the prohibition in the Bible to dispose of yourself.
I person giving aid to a faction that want's to end people for what they say is post-civil-contract. They can't possibly demand to claw back into that system and ask for "rights" when they don't recognize the basis of them--the social convention by which they were accepted and established.

Yes a street level thugs are dead or facing prison but the left has tens of thousands of those people and they aren't very valuable. Trading one, or hell hundreds, for a Kirk or a Trump is well worth it.
I am amazed that even in the Trump cases he has taken a hands off approach and let the DOJ handle them incompetently as regular criminal cases.
They didn't role up the networks that gave them material assistance.
And I guarantee you this, if we have a Dem president in 2028 and some rightwing guy takes a shot at zer, all of us will be having a discussion with the feds. And they will put you in jail for anything you say that they can irrespective of if it has anything to do with this theoritical shooter

Usually it will work for them.
Not in Reagan's case because the economy was too good, and America felt like it was on the rise again after the Carter years.
Bush I got swallowed up by his own aloofness, an economy that hit a brief recession due to gas prices going up after Iraq invaded Kuwait. He never regained his footing and the Dems, with help from their pre-internet media allies, made it seem like we were in the Great Depression II.
Bush II got a free pass for almost four years because of 9/11.
The Dems caused as much chaos and consternation as they could but the American People were too patriotic still to let it get to them. W. failed by the end when the 2008 Financial Crisis hit, and he had given up and the country was worn down by years of war, and the people were tired of him, too.
Trump has never had a moment of peace from the day he took the oath. It's been an all out frontal assault ever since.
Trump has made his share of mistakes, but the Dem&Media combination is still a powerful force at creating chaos.
How we counter that is beyond my pay grade at this point.

That's been going on for a LONG time. Not just in the Partys either. A good example is that yootoob former CIA fuckstick John Kiriakou, who started off in Gov HR after grad school and was immediately groomed and recruited to be a cubicle squirrel at Langley, not to mention a lot of time as a legislative aide to various Donkey commie cocksuckers.
Funny thing is, EVERY Donkey politician he latched onto for career advancement fucked him over, especially John Kerry, Obama and Bill Richardson. Frau Gruppencankles treated him like a janitor when he was an intel officer in Greece, which I found to be hilarious. I rather suspect that he was the wrong color for advancement, being Greek rather than WASPy white or black.

Only Eight GOP Senators Have Called for a Delay In Senate Leadership Elections as John Thune Rushes to Push a Re-Election Vote;
Charles Schumer Might Be Purged by the Islamocommunists He Supported
John Thune and his cronies want to rush the election of the next Senate leaders and hold a vote today.
Eight GOP senators have called for a delay to figure out if they need "new faces," given the big loss. But it takes a majority of GOP senators to vote for a delay. Senator Ron Johnson says if they hold the vote today, he'll walk out.Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) pledged to walk out of the room if his Republican colleagues proceed with leadership elections on Tuesday, after calling a conference to discuss the party's direction following significant losses for the GOP in the midterm elections. "If you hold the election, I'll leave the room," he told the Washington Examiner in a Monday interview. "I'm not going to participate in elections for leadership tomorrow." To delay internal elections, which are cast by secret ballot, Johnson will need support from a majority of the Senate GOP conference. The Wisconsin Republican has been floated as a potential replacement for Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) for when Democrats take control of the Senate in January, as some conservatives air frustration with Thune's leadership. Johnson, who has denied his interest in leadership in the past, again shot down the prospect on Monday, but he did not definitively rule it out. ... The senator added that his request for a conference meeting was not a "hostile act" and was only intended to give the GOP the time to assess whether they wanted a change in leadership. "We all like John Thune. We like him, OK?" Johnson said. "I don't want to say anything bad about him, but again, at some point in time, our supporters absolutely believe we have to hold people accountable, and probably are looking for a new face, or new faces."GOP senators met today and did not agree on either holding or delaying the election.
Did they? The Washington Times writes that Chuck Schumer might lose his own post as Democrat leader as the Islamocommunists want a more radical -- and, let me add, less Jewish -- leader.
Senate Republicans met Tuesday to discuss their future and were expected to reconvene in the afternoon as they decide whether to keep South Dakota Sen. John Thune as their leader. The meetings come just a week after steep losses in the midterm elections that cost them their majority. Thune is expected to be reelected in the secret ballot election, given that he remains popular with his GOP colleagues and is so far running unopposed. But senators left the closed-door meeting after two hours of discussions with no resolution on a way forward after an election wipeout that cost them at least seven Senate seats. "We want to be thoughtful and do the right thing," said West Virginia Sen. Jim Justice as the meeting broke up. He said no obvious alternative had emerged, but "there is a legitimate argument that, good gracious, if we lost as badly as we lost, why would we continue on with the same leadership?" At the same time, the current GOP leadership "didn't cause this problem to happen," Justice said. "They do a good job."
In a way, it is poetic justice. The newly elected hard-left Democrats whom Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer of New York nurtured and fed now want his blood. Several of the Democrats elected this year to the Senate, such as Troy Jackson of Maine, Abdul El-Sayed of Michigan, Adam Hamilton of Kansas and James Talarico of Texas, have announced that they will not support Mr. Schumer for majority leader when the new Congress convenes next year. Veteran Democrats -- such as Sens. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Christopher Murphy of Connecticut and Tina Smith of Minnesota -- have voiced frustration with Mr. Schumer's candidate recruitment and leadership in legislative battles. Once the militants won their primaries, Mr. Schumer did everything he could to support them, including providing significant funding through his Senate Majority PAC. Mr. Schumer's PAC gave $30 million to Mr. El-Sayed, despite the Michigander's hatred of Israel. Mr. El-Sayed will not even say whether he believes Israel has a right to exist, while the Palestinian cause is dear to his heart. That did not seem to present a problem for Mr. Schumer, who is Jewish. When a Muslim terrorist attacked a synagogue that housed a kindergarten, preschool and daycare in West Bloomfield, Michigan, on March 12, while condemning the attack, Mr. El-Sayed said, "Hurt people hurt people." This would seem to rationalize the attack on children by a man whose brother Ibrahim, identified by Israel as a Hezbollah commander, was killed in Lebanon. ... Though a liberal, Mr. Schumer is not liberal enough for members of the Democratic Senate class of 2026. They want a minority leader in their own image -- not one who is merely skeptical of Israeli policies, but one who is rabidly anti-Israel; not one who seeks to reform the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, but one who wishes to "rip it apart," in the words of Sen.-elect Peggy Flanagan of Minnesota. ... Even if Mr. Schumer somehow survives the purge, he will be constantly looking over his shoulder to see how close the wolves are and what he needs to do to appease them next.

Senate sources tell me there is a massive fight happening right now between Senator Rick Scott @SenRickScott
and Senate GOP leadership. Senator Scott is telling GOP leadership they need to stay in town to pass the President’s agenda and approve his nominations before January, but Leader @LeaderJohnThune
wants everyone to go home and hasn’t agreed to keep the @SenateGOP
in session.

Cornyn would still have been the nominee from TX if he did as Paxton asked and supported the SAVE Act. Cornyn refused to do so. Thune kept the Senate in session every day of Trump 2.0 just so they didn't have to deal with a Trump recess appointment. Thune owed his very position as Majority Leader to Trump, who delivered big victories for the House and Senate, yet only two days after ED 2024 he said that he wasn't beholden to Trump and would exercise his independence from him whenever possible - even though Trump was very clear on what his mandate from the people was.
If he remains well-liked among his Senate colleagues, clearly enough of the GOPe hasn't been swept from that chamber. I'm not sure I trust any of them, TBH. A doorknob would do a better job as Leader. If nobody's stepping up, that means they all like the job that Thune's doing. It just so happens that's not the job the base is hiring them to do.

One third to one half of their days as senator are vacation days. Over 100 days. That Thune will be a cowered and run away, instead of fighting the noble fight, is beyond repellant. You failed, dude, step down. Let someone with actual balls run things.
To be fair, the founding fathers set it up that way, but that's because they were men of actual integrity. They saw being in congress as a sacred duty to building a new nation, a sacrifice, and then during their leave time went back to doing their ACTUAL jobs, being a farmer or lawyer or merchant or whatever.
If they saw this sack of lazy pustules, that take outrageous salaries for zero work, and feel entitled to the job for life, they would throw them into the Boston harbor instead of the tea. And be like, what was it all for? We sacrificed our lives, fortunes, and sacred honor for THUNE?? I don't think so!

It might have been that the leadership of the House trusted Thune to let things die, but I have no basis for that speculation.

It won't be that long. Economic crash is imminent. Not just here in the former United States, but pretty much anywhere money is printed.
India, Singapore, Switzerland and United Arab Emirates. That is all which remains, and India, primarily because they have a large working-age population and growing manufacturing base.

Muslim educator allowed to return to NY school after being charged with murdering female jogger
"A maniac ex-cop was arrested Saturday in the brutal murder of a young woman jogging along a Brooklyn footpath last week — and he claimed he woke up covered in blood with no memory of the heartless stabbing, police sources told The Post.
Sayed Mohassib, 27 — who currently works as an elementary school educator in Brooklyn despite being discharged from the Marines for psychological reasons — was charged with second-degree murder in the Oct. 30 slaying of Katie Suarez, police sources said.
. . . .
"Mohassib told cops during his grilling at the 62nd Precinct stationhouse Saturday that he woke up from a blackout covered in blood and with the murder weapon.
"He said he ditched the knife in the garbage, and cops believe the trash was taken to a Staten Island landfill before ending up at a New Jersey dump."

Even if he didn't have the votes, he should have had a vote on it so we knew he was at least trying, and who the people responsible for torpedoing it were. All I know now is he didn't care enough to even try. He just spit in our faces.

Gender, if they are anything close to what the theorists present, are long-term recognitions by society.
You can't just make up genders and say they are equal to categories society has found useful to categorize.

Schumer is too old and should be gone, as well.
I just thank God it’s not still Harry Reid.
Talk about a corrupt, totally immoral, asshoe.
Imagine if Trump had to face the guy who
intentionally lied about Romney being a tax cheat to help win an election, and when it’s proven to be a bald-faced lie his response is:
“It worked, didn’t it.”
And that is hailed as simply a brilliant election ploy by his comrades.
Reid was a PoS extrordinaire.
And I don’t even like Romney, never really have, even when he ran for pres, as I always saw him as a reincarnated Rockerfeller Repub-type.

"Of course, it's ALL social convention!"
Then I asked if it were okay if we just started messing with it to configure the way I wanted it to work.
Overall, they didn't get the point. But, specifically: No, it would not be okay to start just messing with social conventions based on the way I wanted them to work.
Again, she didn't get the point. She just knew she didn't want my version of a "social convention" that she had admitted was all that make up anything she wants to point out about society.
Logic, too, was an agreed "social convention", btw.
Ultimately, it's I'm going to throw a tantrum until things work the way I want.

The more time you spend in back-and-forth, the more you can recognize the pattern of their "thinking".
It became obvious to me that "Social convention/not real so we can update it" suggested that "social convention" was a "social convention".
Had I not been involved in the discussion, I probably would have missed that killer corner.
"It's just POLITE!"
"Isn't etiquette defined by 'social conventions'--or even a 'social convention' in and of itself?"
Everything they want to link it to--denying transcendence of anything--is a "social convention".
Which in one sense that they use the word "not real" and up to change.

None of which the "we can add genders because social conventions are not real" people can establish.
Who created the "modifiable social convention" convention? Is that convention equally modifiable? Can it simply run on preference? A vote?
Tradition is actually an information system.
Novel innovations on social conventions will never equal the instrumentality--or just the know-what-the-fuck-you're-talking-about-ism--of long-developed convention.
The magic of "Social convention" is a non-starter. It's a red herring, when you don't actually engage in what a social convention actually is.
After all, if you are successful, and add 100+ genders to the "social convention of gender", how is that made any more real than were it was to begin with?
It's practice ignorance.

But atheists themselves suggest that Marxist can be "religious". Thus whether or not there is a common "faith" among atheists is independent of whether or not atheism itself comprises a faith.
In case people aren't familiar with quantified analysis. That means that atheism may be neither a sufficient or necessary condition for faith, but it may still contribute to the Rationalist faith.
Marxism is simply subsumed under a Rationalist faith. Absent the "superstition" of traditional religion, we can figure out the pattern of history, so as to get from history more of what we want and less of what we have disapproved of.
Historical progression can be made into it's own Science.
No wonder that people adopting the Rational Faith--or what Robespierre entitled "Cult(Fr. culture) of Reason"--counterfeit a "Scientific worldview", which simply leaves out the key to Science.
Not "Nature" but parsimony. "Nature" is a cipher, the set of things that occur in Nature change.
But Science is a methodology and parsimony is a practice.
"Science" is unfit as a "worldview". It is a discipline.

Thune upon his reelection to leadership :
""I'm proud of what this Republican team has accomplished together, and we remain united in our commitment to advancing conservative priorities, working with President Trump and our colleagues in the House, and holding the line against Democrats' efforts to enact their far-left, liberal agenda."
"We have important work ahead of us, and I look forward to serving alongside my colleagues on behalf of the American people."

I was once on a federal jury in Orlando and sequestered and put up in a hotel as I had to travel over an hour.
I watched a documentary of Dolly Madison and Congress used to pound their silver tipped canes and fight and it looked far more exciting than what we endure now.
I vote for cage fighting at this point. Even an outburst and slap and spitting (I know I am describing the squaddies, but I want it all). I want mayhem that they are allowing to happen. Why not have a taste in the great halls of the elected pompous egotisical nitwits?

It's taken me decades to synthesize this, so the expectation that the average theist observing this widespread aspiration among atheists would get the technical definition right in order to be considered, is just a widening of the blind spot atheists do not believe they have.
And not because they have it or don't have it--because they don't believe they have it.
So, like everything the burden shifts to YOU. And if you ignore the de facto stance that atheism is not specifically a religion, than characterizing any common trend among atheists as "religion" just goes to show how reactive you are.
And they don't have to consider any feedback, because you're not perfect in the point, and did not surmount the burden they always upon another.

Obama-Connected Democrat Operative Van Jones Smiles as He Admits the "Affordability" Op Was, In Pure Obama Fashion, an Organized Astroturf Campaign
Running an astroturf operation? With Concerned Christian Conservatives fretting about whatever the Democrats' Fake Issue of the Day is? Where have I heard this before?Jones admitted that the economy really isn't as bad as portrayed, and that the Democrats knew this (surprise!), but rather than simply program their candidates and campaigns with duplicitous messaging, they took it several steps further. And the Republicans never figured it out. Jones told Collins how the Democrats discreetly organized tens of thousands of people to serve as chartered trolls as part of the "American Accountability Network." Jones did not make clear whether these people were compensated or not.I'm pretty sure they were.
"The Republicans never figured out what we were doing," Jones said in-studio to a smiling Collins. "There's something called the American Accountability Network (AAN), tens of thousands of online humans, not bots, coordinated to make the affordability message a winning message online. 32.5 million people hit on Instagram every day. 88.8 million hit on Twitter, X, every single day. And 185 million Facebook hits every single day. And they never figured it out." "The Republicans could not understand it wasn't bots. It was actual human beings," he said.They are bots. Human-shaped bots. Tim O'Brien adds:
He added that Democrats were having trouble getting any "traction" on culture war issues, but thanks to the AAN, the left "figured out how to get around all that."Witch-faced shill Kaitlin Collins had no negative commentary on an admitted massive disinformation campaign, but instead was "fascinated."
Collins found all of this "fascinating." Of course, it's fascinating when Democrats do it, but if Republicans did it, it would be criminal to Collins and her ilk.Video at the link.

Are people getting so stupid that they do not know what an "ideology" is?
An "ideology" is "Hey! I have a Great Idea which should overwrite everything other people were taking to have worked reasonably well in the past!"
It very seldom pays off over a reasonably tuned practice of that office.
"Hey! Maybe the Department of War ought to be more focused on readiness" is the ANTITHESIS of ideology.

2) They are in fact more affordable! My no show NGO job pays enough so that my life partner and I can buy anything we wants!
3) Of course cities are unaffordable unlike the burbs...because of Trump/capitalism/Republicans/rich people (which I guess aren't in the burbs/rural areas?)
4) Of course cities are unaffordable because taxes aren't high enough

Guess what else they did with millions of people they recruited this past election? Voted.
Sure, some people voted on issues just as always. Trump voters turned out, the numbers prove it. Democrats spent a year recruiting new voters, the numbers show that as well. And that was the wave.
Too many people are still obsessing over whether it was Iran or the price of eggs or super mean ICE. It was NGOs spending a billion dollars to find new voters under very lax registration rules.

Most likely in India, at that.
If the WH is dumb enough to try and run with amnesty, I think I am just legit done with the party entirely. Even the muddled stuff coming out is risking mass defections. If this is some Dem op they need to get on top of it.
Everyone knows there is no such thing as "yeah we will close the border but do amnesty". Bullshit. Keep kicking them out or go down swinging in the attempt, because we can't take 15, 20, 25 million more and possibly can't even keep it together with what Biden let in.
Every fucking week it is one more family killed by an illegal driver, one more illegal shooting people, one more illegal kidnapping and raping girls. Enough is enough. We are in one of the least "diverse" places in the US and still can't escape it.

I thought Trump might be able to deal with it in the public square as he has beaten them back before. Unfortunately whatever operation I saw and detailed repeatedly here, has landed on us quicker and perhaps even more thoroughly than I had feared. I thought it was battlespace prep for 2028 and in a way, it was.
All I'm saying is what I've been saying but maybe a little more urgently. Things are about to get WEIRD. Whatever you think you know about our politics and our system and likely our culture is gonna get turned on its head, probably not in a way you have ever experienced.

Everything is an op.

They'll tell you Donald Trump is a glamorous popular celebrity when he's donating to the Clintons, and that he's a racist old stumblebum when he runs against them.
They'll tell you Afghanistan is the good war when Obama's pulling out of Iraq, and it's a bad one when Biden is done with it next.
They'll tell you Joe Rogan is a smart truth-teller when he's going off about aliens and endorsing Bernie Sanders, but he's a dumb fuckin' meathead when he's going off about COVID and endorsing Donald Trump.

The Pubs--and I could have warned you about this a while ago--want to go back to being the party that talks about "conservative values".
Because that was an easier lift. Before Trump did much moderating, when he was fresh in the race, he mentioned that he chose Republican as his party because his research suggested that we were the most underserved.
He did nothing if not prove that threefold.

Then they were provided an acceptable outlet for their unease: complaining about affordability. Why is Trump spending "our" money abroad, instead of helping poor Americans at home?
It's a mystery wrapped in an enigma, which has no logical explanation (for the indoctrinated and for the victims of propaganda; otherwise it's pretty easy).
The discomfort caused by this idea cannot be mentioned in polite company, but affordability can be used as a byword for it.
Even if people feel guilty about this line of reasoning, the shame actually helps with the persuasion.
Leftists are doing a sort of mind rape and the victims are mostly too ashamed to admit it. Thus, they persuade themselves that it must be love.

I was asking if the recent stock market up was people trying to take advantage of the likely coming increases in inflation and it argued that inflation is going to come down because....Trump's tariffs will be restricted/removed and tariffs are inflationary because they raise the cost of products.
I pointed out taxes can't be inflationary be definition and pointed out a new tax on bread, for example, would raise the cost of bread but no one would call that inflation and it agreed but then argued tariffs were different then other taxes for...reasons.
So then I asked did inflation go up or down when Trump put in his tariffs. Down. So what does that do to your argument? Uh, well, uh...but tariffs are the only tax that is inflationary.

Bloomberg and CNBC should have absolutely known better. On one side of their mouths they were scaring the pants of the electorate with their incessant 'affordability' deathwatch. On the other they were mystified by the strength of the Trump economy. When the two sets conflicted, they always deferred to fear and the Dems.

They are going to "whip the horse's eyes to make it sleep", to borrow from Jim Morrison.
I have seen any number of Dems demand that businesses take a cost and NOT pass it on to consumers.
Ruining everybody's IRA in the process, though.
The Dems were the ones who created the correction after Enron to tighten Mark-2-Market which for accounting "responsibility" purposes denies the chief value of investment: unrealized gain or loss.
Enron created a problem, so they hit it with a sledge hammer which contributed greatly to the 2007 collapse. Especially after the NGOs stopped acting like a charity and buying up all the bad housing debt.
Just dumb-dumbfucks.

This is why I'm ultimately long-term optimistic. You can fool some of the people all of the time (liberals), and you can fool all of the people some of the time (2026 midterms), but the truth will ultimately come out. Trump is delivering long-term structural improvement to this country. The Dems will try to take credit for it, but they cannot earn it. All of their players were around two years ago today, when Joe Biden was President!

All the videos of people on their latest I Phone in their new car clearly well fed with salon hair and painted nails whining that they cannot afford to east or pay rent were so bizarre: clearly none of that is true.
But the truth is, American people do not have the patience or willingness to fight that we used to. When Reagan reached his midterms, the economy still sucked, hard. In places like Oregon the unemployment and inflation rates were OVER 20%. But people were willing to give Reagan a shot and by 1984, he'd turned everything around.
Nobody gives it time any more. You have about six months on the outside to make everything totally better or you're out.

1 bean burrito + 1 soft taco = $7.04
I just went to Taco Bell and handed the teenage girl behind the counter a $50 bill. She took the money, laid it on the counter, and used a marker to check if it was real or fake. Then she told me, “Mister, I can’t accept this money; it’s counterfeit! See the dark line? That means it’s fake!”
I was shocked and said, “Wow, this money came straight from the bank!” She handed it back, and I gave her another $50 bill.
She marked it, looked at it, and said, “Yep, this one’s fake too. We might have to call the cops.”
I was like, “WOW! Both of my $50 bills are fake?” At this point, I looked closer. “Lady, you're using a Sharpie?”
She took a long look at the marker and said, “Yes, that's all I have.”
I feel like our society is doomed...

It would be much better if CC rates were dependent on your individual credit score, like most other interest rates are.
But all CC rates are very high, even if you are at very low risk of not making the payment. Why? Because of all the deadbeats. The "good" cardholders are subsidizing the deadbeats.
My solution? I pay in full every month. I use the card for convenience and airline miles.

I’ve been saying this for a long time.
It’s also that they think a police force paid for by tax dollars is socialism. So when you say so and so running is a socialist they think well ok that just means he wants a well funded police force.
But this is another example of the right/GOP stuck in 2003 when saying the “s” word and promising tax cuts was effective.

And right leaning people would point out that the real increase was under Biden and the left's argument...using a chart showing exactly this...would be "no Trump is president"

Headline Decline: From the year prior through September 2026, real average hourly earnings decreased by 0.7%, with real weekly earnings also slipping into negative territory.
Primary Driver: The decline was caused by headline inflation (3.7%) outpacing nominal wage growth (3.0–3.6%), largely due to a 34.2% surge in gasoline prices and a 20.4% rise in energy costs.
Core Inflation Exception: When excluding volatile food and energy prices, core inflation remained at approximately 2.6%, meaning wages actually grew faster than core prices during this period.
Historical Context: This marks the first time since April 2023 that inflation has consistently outpaced wage growth, erasing the real wage gains accumulated earlier in the year and reversing the positive trends seen in 2024 and early 2025. You may now continue.

Limiting or avoiding alcohol and drugs.
Alcohol and drugs can decrease blood flow to the penis and interfere with messengers in the brain during arousal. Over time, alcohol consumption can reduce testosterone levels also.
Not smoking or using tobacco products.
Smoking can cause plaque to build up in arteries throughout the body. This can cause poor blood supply to the penis.
Controlling your blood sugar level if you have diabetes.
Elevated blood sugar levels cause nerve and blood vessel damage, which significantly affects the ability to achieve an erection.
Seeking help to cope with anxiety or depression.
Erectile dysfunction can result from depression, stress, anxiety or fatigue, so managing these conditions may reduce your erectile disfunction symptoms.

Nah, I chalk it up to the shift from Sense -> Sympathy.
This is a widespread migration. This is why you can't even say that Clancy is guilty of killing her children, because what if she was suffering and couldn't help it?
Not that the case is reasonable, but you have to consider emotional doubts as well.
Feminine "Sympathy" is killing reason-based law.
Everywhere.
Not that Male-administered law has always been an exercise in reason. Far from it. The Good-ol-boy network of the South definitely testifies to corruption of it.
But that was some form of pragmatics eclipsing the the impartial application of law.
It was not a replacement theory of "a reasonable doubt". Even as a syndrome, it was a corruption of an individual system. It was a crime committed under the guise of the basis of law.

Anti-American Operative Thomas Massie Demands Impeachment of Pete Hegseth; Pete Hegseth Blasts Him
Yesterday I worried when I saw that Pete Hegseth would be delivering an address today. I feared he would be announcing his withdrawal from the administration.
I guess he still might do that but it's more likely he was announcing his coming rebuttal of Thomas Massie's latest screed against him.Massie's argument was that Pete Hegseth should be impeached for limiting lawyers' ability to veto operations or impose lethal restrictions on troops fighting for America. A veteran of the Global War on Terror offered his own reaction to Thomas Massie's work on behalf of the Caliphate.
A former military lawyer notes that Massie continues whining that the US attacked narcoterrorists smuggling drugs to the US by boat without having a lawyer give them permission. It's always, ALWAYS drugs with these fucking hippies.
InfantryDort
@infantrydort Nah man. I'm not gonna let this go unchecked. As a GWOT veteran I can't. I listened to Massie drone through his articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth and I recognized the sickness immediately. We fought under this ridiculous worldview during GWOT, and it cost us dearly. Massie is merely an acolyte of the bloodless bureaucratic religion that puts the lawyer in the center of the kill chain, treats every American use of force like a moral emergency, and somehow always finds more sympathy for the enemy being hunted than for the American sent to hunt him. His whole speech I began wondering who he actually was speaking for, and that's not good. GWOT vets know EXACTLY where that road leads. Another approval. Another review. Another JAG opinion. Another commander afraid to make a decision because one bad headline will destroy his career faster than losing the fight ever could. We were lectured for years about "courageous restraint." We were told that killing one enemy might create ten more. We were taught to fear our own lethality while the enemy studied our hesitation. And then we spent twenty years bleeding into the fucking sand. So spare me the sermon about how dangerous it is to remove lawyers who think their job is to become a veto point over command. Spare me the sudden reverence for process from people who watched Afghanistan collapse, watched thirteen Americans die at Abbey Gate, watched the Taliban retake Kabul, and somehow found no constitutional apocalypse worthy of impeachment then. Now the outrage is that the machine is actually being used. That commanders are expected to command. And that enemies are being treated like.... actual enemies for once. That civilian leadership is telling the bureaucracy to get the hell out of the way of lawful military action. From where I sit, the betrayal isn't that Washington finally found some aggression for a change. The realest betrayal is that men like Massie still think the lesson of the GWOT was that we needed more hesitation.
No. WE NEEDED MORE VICTORY. And I'm done pretending those are the same thing. We're all done with it. Massie is dead wrong here, he knows it, you know it, and I know it. Sincerely,
-A seriously disgruntled GWOT vet who knows Hegseth is the cure to what ails our military here.
- Article IV. The basis for the next article is a claim that: "Secretary Hegseth willfully and systemically refused to comply with laws and directives mandated for the protection of civilians during the commission of armed conflict, chilled and rendered ineffective such components to prevent and mitigate harm to civilians, and therefore, foreseeably effected the death and injury of over 200 civilians [referring to the attack reportedly directed against an elementary school in Minab, Iran], to the manifest injury of the United States." Tbh nearly every line of this article misrepresents various aspects of international AND domestic law in such an egregious manner that I'm tempted to do a deep-dive on just Article IV. Maybe there will be an opportunity to do so at some point in the future. For now, I'll just focus on the core of this allegation: that SECWAR Hegseth failed to comply with legal "obligations" involving civilian harm mitigation & reduction (CHMR). ...Massie is also crying that Trump "kidnapped" Maduro, who again is a federally indicted drug-trafficker and therefore is a being deserving of special protection by nasty drug-obsessed hippie douchebags.
The MAIN point to address here is that Congress doesn't possess the constitutional authority to FORCE DoW to implement specific CHMR practices. Congress can appropriate funds for such practices (Art. I, Sec. 8, Cl. 12). And Congress can "make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces" (Art. I, Sec. 8, Cl. 14). But POTUS is appointed as commander-in-chief of the military (Art. II, Sec. 2, Cl. 1). And practices related to civilian harm mitigation & reduction are strictly within the purview of CiC authority since they don't involve making rules for the armed forces (that authority is exercised by adopting the Uniform Code of Military Justice ... more about the UCMJ below). ... - Article V. The essential basis for the next allegation is: "Secretary Hegseth abused the authority and trust vested in him as Secretary of Defense not only by directing the unlawful use of lethal military force, resulting in the summary execution of at least 243 persons in international waters, but also by using his office to compel members of the Armed Forces to carry out such operations under false legal authorities that he caused to be constructed and imposed upon the chain of command." This claim is centered on the campaign of attacks directed against suspected narcoterrorists in international waters. ... The MAIN problem here (out of many) is the assertion that: "By subjecting persons merely suspected of criminal conduct to lethal military force without judicial process, without congressional authorization, and without establishing a lawful basis for treating such persons or vessels as military targets, Secretary Hegseth arrogated to himself and the Executive Branch the roles of judge, jury, and executioner and asserted a unilateral power to determine who may live and who may die." Of course, the "without congressional authorization" element returns us to the analysis from the WPR articles involving the concurrent constitutional powers to "declare war" (Congress) AND engage in "hostilities" (POTUS). Even so, the assertion that suspected narcoterrorists operating drug boats on the High Seas are MERELY "suspected of criminal conduct" is a gross misrepresentation of international law involving the resort to force (jus ad bellum) & domestic implementation thereof. See, this article explicitly acknowledges that an interagency task force developed a classified memo that presented "a legal basis for such strikes" by determining that the "United States is engaged in a noninternational armed conflict (NIAC) with 24 Latin American Designated Terrorist Organizations." Whether one disagrees with this determination or not, the EXECUTIVE BRANCH HAS THE AUTHORITY TO DO SO. And when it DID determine the existence of a noninternational armed conflict against drug cartels, by definition the adversary was no longer merely "suspected of criminal conduct." Yes, trafficking narcotics IS criminal conduct. But saying it is ONLY criminal conduct would be like claiming al-Qaeda operatives are "only" criminals since they're engaged in activity that is against the law. A drug dealer at home is a criminal. A narcotics trafficker on the High Seas that ISN'T part of a group the government has determined to be an adversarial belligerent in a (noninternational) armed conflict is ALSO a criminal. But a narcotrafficker on the High Seas that IS part of a group the government has determined to be an adversarial belligerent is a criminal AND a civilian taking direct part in hostilities (DPH). And what do we do with civilians DPH? Sure, we can detain them - but we can ALSO make them the object of attack pursuant to LOAC. That's what DoW did, that's what SECWAR Hegseth directed, and none of it constitutes a "high Crime or Misdemeanor".
Hegseth's own rebuttal was also unsparing.
Jonathan Turley
@JonathanTurley I am reviewing the eight articles on the impeachment of Sec. Pete Hegseth. In my view, six of the eight articles should be nonstarters, including the Iranian articles. Presidents, including Clinton, Obama, and Biden, have asserted the authority to commence such operations... ...Outgoing Rep. Thomas Massie said yesterday that he filed the articles because he wants to "litigate" the underlying war powers of Congress. I agree with Massie about the need for Congress to assert its constitutional authority over the declaration of war. However, Trump was acting within the authority long asserted by his predecessor. More importantly... ...Massie is not going to "litigate" the matter through impeachments. Courts have not limited this authority and are unlikely to do so. This is a call for an impeachment by members who tolerated the exercise of the authority by Democratic members... ...It is equally baffling to seek to impeach on the basis of the "kidnapping" of former President Maduro. Trump was acting within the authority recognized by the courts in the Noreiga case. That was, to use Massie's term, "litigated." ...
Hegseth added:
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on Tuesday railed against the Republican congressman who introduced articles of impeachment against him and aggressively defended his leadership in the Iran war and other military operations. "What one disgruntled and defeated congressman is attempting is not oversight, and it's not accountability. It's a political spectacle, a personal manifesto driven by ego and resentment," Hegseth said a day after Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., put forward the eight impeachment articles. "It's a farce, and it's a stunt, and everybody knows it," Hegseth said during his first Pentagon news conference in six months. The articles accuse Hegseth of waging war in contravention of Congress, carrying out extrajudicial killings tied to boat strikes in the Caribbean against purported drug smugglers and suppressing free speech by targeting Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., a military veteran. Massie, a libertarian who lost his Republican primary in May after clashing with President Donald Trump, kicked off the impeachment battle less than a week after a blue-wave midterm that will flip House and Senate control to Democrats.
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., who is poised to be speaker of the House in the next Congress, on Sunday said Democrats are a "hard yes" on impeaching Hegseth. He reiterated his support on Monday in a press conference.
"This is not patriotism. This is sabotage"Hegseth got a good grade from the boss.
"Pete Hegseth gets an "A" PLUS, PLUS, PLUS for his defense against a disgruntled, angry, defeated, former Congressman, Thomas Massie, a TOTAL LOSER!" Trump posted on Truth Social.
I’ve just watched the press conference by @SecWar @PeteHegseth, and you simply need to watch it yourselves. It is PHENOMENAL 🔥
Truthfully, he nails it. He is absolutely, categorically, 100% correct with what he said. Almost every word of it. And my respect for him has increased exponentially. He is right. Argue with me or him or whoever you want, however you want. Pete Hegseth is right. Here is just a portion of the press conference. The full speech is far too large to post. And there was so much more he said that was simply superb in every word.— Mor Edge Insight (@MorEdge_Insight) November 10, 2026
HEGSETH: "We didn't start this war; Iran did, 47 years ago. President Trump is willing to do what no other President would. He did the tough, right thing — not for politics, but for the safety and the security of the American people. That's leadership." https://t.co/iWTp7Os9dn

If they want to come for the warriors, they’re going to have to come through me.— Clash Report (@clashreport) November 10, 2026
Tara CoppOh wait, she's not a little girl, she's a middle-aged Karen who, like all middle-aged Karen, has no sex drive but gets OFF on always being both victim and hero at all possible times.
@TaraCopp A security agent for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth just warned the reporters here -- for Hegseth's first press conference in 6 months -- that we will be physically removed from the briefing room if we are not professional and maintain decorum. We asked if that meant no shouted questions and got no clarity. It's the first time any of us could ever remember being threatened like this. Shouted questions are normal. "This is crazy town" one journalist said, noting the White House has never threatened reporters like that
Hello everybody! I hope you're all healthy and happy and that you've cleared out most of the wreckage we all found ourselves under from last Tuesday night.

The right (including Hegseth) knows that combat is not at all a criminal matter, but an existential one, particularly as you get more granular (the individual warrior vice the US itself).
Combat is combat. Crime is crime. They aren't interchangeable, no matter how much liberals want them to be.

No impeachment crusade. No constitutional sermon. No theatrical outrage. Apparently your principles were buried somewhere between your pinecone collection and whatever Democrat's ass you were kissing that week.

We are watching out country unravel bit by bit. This is the result of years of marching though the institutions.
It starts where we allowed poison to be taught in our schools. Our "leaders" had multiple opportunities to either cut off or mitigate the left's control of education- universal vouchers, charter schools, etc...
Our leaders were unwilling to fight. They play nice with their "Friends across the aisle."
Instead the "leaders" and "thought leaders" mocked people who pointing out how insane students had become. "They'll change when faced with the real world".
IF we aren't able to retake control of our country and retake control of our education system, the greatest country the world has ever seen will see its demise from internal enemies and feckless leaders.
I have to assume this is what Cicero felt, warning of the demise of the Roman Republic.

The graduate students at Harvard are hilariously on strike - one of them whined that she had to have roommates because her graduate stipend was so low, and another whined that you couldn't raise a family on that stipend.
But Harvard is now suffering a second horrific blow:
"Harvard’s non-tenure-track faculty and researchers will walk out of classrooms and labs Tuesday for the first time, after a final bargaining session Monday ended without a contract agreement with the University."
They're represented by the United Auto Workers, BTW, which has apparently decided that its future lies in representing whiny academics.
The person who posted this announcement is Madeleine Baker, who is currently a College Fellow in the History of Science department at Harvard University, and is of course a tranny.
To the barricades, Harvardians!

The drugs and embargoed crude were being shipped to Europe for sale, and the proceeds were laundered through European banks for deposit into Venezuelan military and Cartel banking accounts, where the credit was used for purchasing needed supplies for export to Venezuela, and of course Iran since they combined with Venezuela to "greywash" their own crude.
I am told that the price of Coke in Europe has gotten unpleasantly high, and I suspect this is reflected in US prices as well.
No one will talk about coke here, but has pot gone up in price, those of you who partake?

Its like Tick-Tock. Every time the medical community finds ways to be more efficient, new treatments that dial down recovery, techniques that once were days in a bed are now office visits and out treatment, anything...
Then the "AFFORDABILITY"™ Demonic Party finds new ways to jack up premiums. More efficient? Bring 40 million foreigners in with expensive medical problems. New treatments? Put more people in psychotherapy, add drug rehab as covered by Obamacare. Streamline processes? Add whole new categories of covered treatment like lifelong tranny drugs and body mutilation. Import more doctors? Force the population to take the ClotShot and watch as turbo cancers, infertility, and heart disease sky rocket and become normal in young populations. Bring drug prices down? Dig out foreigners with incurable TB, leprosy and stuff that was eradicated back in the days of Jesus.
Its as if there is a homeostasis of misery and expense that must be maintained. For every efficiency and betterment, new shit is stuffed into the system to erase whatever gains may have occurred.

Blowing up narco terrorists on the high seas it's exactly what I want our military doing. Same goes for blowing up the Iranian terrorist nuclear capability.
Tossing out left wing ideologues masquerading as US military officers is exactly what the SoW should be doing. If it comes down to modeling our military on the character of General Patton versus General Miley I would approve that a thousand times over.

Could be, though it was most likely a barter economy for the Venezuelan generals who managed the regime and supported it. Drugs were fast-boated to places like Jamaica, and then shipped to ports like Amsterdam, and credit was given out. I suspect when the money dried up, so did the bribes and the willingness to support Maduro.
It was also a pretext to put the USN in the Gulf in preparation for the Maduro operation you know.

I don't doubt that Hegseth is a MAGA conservative, but that doesn't mean he's actually good at his job. I just think Trump saw him on Fox and liked him.
There was just no plan in place in Iran, so either Trump is totally overruling Hegseth's wise counsel or he's being poorly advised by Hegseth.
Trump needs a head to roll and I would be shocked if he doesn't decide to dump it on Hegseth.
And Massie is an idiot, but that doesn't mean I rush to defend Hegseth. Conservatives probably lost the nation for a decade over this dumb operation.

Current active duty and recently retired think he's the greatest thing since sliced bread, and I tend to take their word for it. I know back at the Harvard faculty lounge they all laugh and laugh about how he doesn't have credentials, but "we're not putting fucking lawyers in the chain of command" automatically makes Hegseth smarter than them.

If the answer is always going to be fraud then what’s the point of any of it?
Every state and county has their own voting rules, ballots, processes, etc. You really think some grand fraud operation existed to steal every one of those counties? Because if the answer is yes then there’s really no point in worrying about elections ever again.

Writer Michel Houellebecq indicted after remarks about Muslims and the "great replacement"
INFO LE FIGARO - Michel Houellebecq was prosecuted after an interview with Front Populaire, Michel Onfray's magazine, in November 2022. The 70-year-old writer was indicted for complicity in provocation to discrimination, hatred or violence.
The writer Michel Houellebecq was indicted for "complicity in provocation to discrimination, hatred or violence against a group of people because of their origin or their belonging or non-membership to a specific ethnicity, nation, race or religion", Le Figaro learned from a source close to the file. The decision was rendered on Tuesday by an investigating judge of the Nanterre judicial court.

Legal weed requires a id card, and an id card puts one at risk of clashing with one's oath upon a federal firearms card at the time of purchase.
Because I'm not a fan of untimely death or charges of federal perjury, I no longer partake.

It has nothing to do with munitions and everything to do with a captured population (Persians)that we don't really have a beef with.
It's not like Imperial Japan, where the population is all-in on the War effort and being used as a defused manufacturing/fighting force.
There is no need to cow the population of Iran, entirely. So, we have to work to spare the population while eliminating their ruling class and respective security force.

This is unfortunate, because war should not be the default solution to any foreign policy issue. Nevertheless it is true.
Lindbergh started by saying "We don't need another war in Europe" but eventually went to Berlin to complain about the dirty Jews picking on poor little Hitler.
The anti-Vietnam rallies proudly sported the Viet Cong flag.
Code Pink harassed wounded soldiers outside military hospitals.
And now Benedict Massey is saying that Iran, which masterminded the murder of the Marines in Beirut, is a poor little victim of Trump.

No, that's not what it means. Texas's red counties generally remained red, just less red than usual. Which is consistent with a wave election.

But my immediate reaction when we embarked on this was "it's a bad idea. We don't have the wherewithal to screw ourselves up to the sticking point. We'll lose, and it will embarrass us, and embolden our foreign enemies, while increasing the power of our domestic ones. We shouldn't be doing this."
And that's more or less how this turned out.
But it's not the reason for this midterm blowout. The GOP is. Plain and simple.
If you want loyalty from Trump voters you have to earn it like he did. The GOP didn't, and that's the long and the short of it.

We're not talking about the dems.
We're talking about true-believer, deep-red, Texan Texans actively committing fraud to help the dems win.
That's what would be required to fraudulently shift 254 independently-run county elections in Texas. The elections officials themselves, in every Texas county, would have to have been the ones doing it.

Kiki Camarena, DEA agent murdered in 1987, was one such victim. The CIA was afraid he had connected the drug trade to an airstrip they were using to smuggle weapons to the Contras. One of the CIA's men interrogated Kiki while he was in the clutches of the the Drug Lords, wanting to find out what he knew, then that same man lied to Congress about it.

None of this justifies impeachment of Hegseth, but it is an indictment of the Congress that basically has abnegated its responsibilities to regulatory agencies, the executive, and the courts. This has been getting worse for decades. No legislation, no budget, no responsibility. Just grandstanding investigations for fundraising. Our Congress, including Massie, is a joke.

Nope - in ALL cases. Where does the constitution delineate where he can and can't ? Nowhere
Much like the Constitution provides the ONLY qualifications for President, House, and Senate, and anything you want to add to that requires a constitutional amendment, so too does the Constitution contain all the requirements for the power to conduct military operations. IE none. You want to add some ? Best get to amending the Constitution, then. The War Powers Act, as everyone already knows, is patently unconstitutional.

First, "a single disgruntled congressman" is hard to square with a 211-204 vote. 204 members voted against the motion to refer, i.e. for a floor vote right now. Nearly half the chamber preferred losing a public vote to no vote at all. That is not one crank; it is a substantial bloc that wanted the question answered on the record.
Second, Hegseth's own defense is that the operations were lawful and properly directed, which is an argument on the merits. Referral to Judiciary is the one route that can test it in public: subpoenas for the authorizations, the targeting records, the legal opinions. If the case is as weak as the administration says, a committee record is where that gets established, not where it gets buried. "Effectively killed" describes the calendar, not the merits.
The Article I point ought to bother the right more than it does: a House that will not even vote on a war it is asked to fund has handed the war power to the executive, and the next president inherits that precedent regardless of party.
I work on TheBareNews: AI-written Left and Right columns over one shared factual account, no original reporting, so both cases are argued from the same facts. The account of this vote: https://tinyurl.com/22qlprxm

The Morning Rant: John Thune (And Others) Must Go!
Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin is driving the effort and has collected the five signatures needed to request a meeting of the full conference, The Hill reported. Republicans Ted Budd of North Carolina, Rick Scott of Florida, Mike Lee of Utah and John Kennedy of Louisiana signed his letter, according to Axios. Two other Republicans, Dave McCormick of Pennsylvania and Jim Banks of Indiana, endorsed the delay in their own statements without signing, Bloomberg reported. Johnson called Tuesday’s outcome a “stunning defeat” in the letter, The Hill reported, and has argued that rushing the vote would be “political malpractice,” according to the Federalist. Johnson wants the conference to examine what went wrong before it installs a leadership team. “If you hold the election, I’ll leave the room,” Johnson told a Washington Examiner reporter Monday. “An election defeat of this magnitude demands change,” he added on X.
That bolded part is vital. The Republican Party failed in many ways, and while the blame does not rest solely with the feckless Senate leadership, John Thune's failure should be the catalyst for an examination of how the Republicans in the Senate support the administration's goals and how they respond to the American people's support for popular legislation. Managing the decline is no longer an option! Although if an election cycle as a minority party will purge the Senate of its pathetic Corporate GOP placeholders, perhaps that would be worth it. Regardless, the idea of the maverick has damaged the prospects of the Republican Party, and the purge should be swift and violent and all-encompassing. The left operates in lockstep, and savagely punishes the outliers who disturb the carefully crafted image of a unified party. That is why the emergence of the DSA is so disturbing...their party hierarchy cannot control them! And that is a good thing for the Republican Party and the conservative movement. But...the left never loses sight of its goals, and they will eventually integrate the DSA and its far-left analogues into the Party, or perhaps it will be the other way around. But either way, the path is always toward unity. That is a lesson that has evaded the Republican leadership. JD Vance came from the Senate, and as vice-president he could have been a vital bridge between the administration and the Senate, but that would have required loyalty to the President and the goals of the American people, and he would have had to sublimate his own political goals...something he has clearly not done. President Trump could have been more collaborative with the Senate, and perhaps that would have changed the trajectory of the SAVE Act defeat. But that is asking him to change his spots, and is simply not a reasonable expectation. And, after all, the President is the de facto head of the Party, and has every right to expect loyalty to his strategic vision, especially when it is supported by the vast majority of the American people! But that requires a sea change in the way Republican lawmakers see themselves, and the voters must speak loudly and forcefully for that to occur! [Crossposted at CutJibNewsletter and X/Twitter]. And if you folks who are on X/Twitter would follow me it would be much appreciated!

I know the Ace podcast went kaput...but maybe give it another shot? Think of all the hobo pelt and shelf sponsors dying to do promos!
It's funny that anti capitalist commies can get advertisers like these, and conservative podcasters usually are struggling just to get coffee, gold, and vitamin sponsors. Though Boll and Branch was a longtime Rush sponsor, and I know Cozy Earth advertises with some conservatives.

Look what the choices were. Duncan Hunter, Romney, Sleepy Fred Thompson. Fred was a smart dude but he couldn't energize Robin Williams on a bender.
And in later elections we had Electric Bobby Jindal who turned out to be another weak appeasing pos at best and full traitor at worst.

If Thune thought this through for one second, he would stand up at the podium, admit failure, and offer his sword.
You want to know what’s wrong with Congress? It’s become about self, not service. Hyperbole, not action. Lies and obfuscation, not truths.

"Sadly, some of the advertisers have caved. But we still have other advertisers, and we're still standing."
Little companies are apparently stepping in to try to save them.
They read a message from a brewery in Wisconsin that called Charlie Kirk "an awful human being" and wanted to help sponsor the show.
Welch called that "so sweet," then did a shout out for the company for free.
At last count, around 30 sponsors have dropped the podcast.
It's not because they were harassed. It's because these women are toxic.
But hey if you're a little company, just drop these hateful hags a message bashing Charlie. Maybe that'll get you a free ad read.

Once you "get" that EVERYTHING is narrative, it all starts to fall into place.
Trying to figure out or devise answers regarding what laws were or weren't broken to prompt the latest floated Uniparty garbage ball is enough to drive anyone to the brink.

I am not saying you are mistaken, Rhomboid, but there was something hinky going on to make him the nominee. He was famous for sticking his thumb in the eye of the base. But you know there are a lot of self-hating Republicans who would support him and others who are easily swayed by false media narratives.

That would presume he lost.
People who have been in DC for decades know far better than we do how the DC game is played and who is pulling strings and writing checks.
We are the insurgents and Thune and many others are the entrenched establishment. Tim Burchett, a somewhat low key but a guy most definitely on our side in the House, announced yesterday that he wanted Marsha Blackburn to appoint him to her former seat in the Senate after she left to be governor of Tennessee. Thune immediately came out against him.
Not a chance in hell Trump or God Almighty was going to make Thune and his establishment pals pass the Save Act. It was the simplest and most obvious thing they could do to please 80% of the country. So they didn't do it.

Glad Davey got in there.
In 2025 and 2026, during Donald Trump's second administration, the deployment of surrogates has shifted to when, what, where?
Federal agency overhauls, the Great American Recovery Initiate, maternal and healthcare initiatives, legal and border enforcements, defending birthright citizenship restrictions, Melania and her focus on foster children, her focus on Ukraine and Russia, the frigging fact Trump HAD to do something with Iran, not in keeping with O's turning his back on our nation, and on and on the administration fights. Maybe not all perfect in tone or goal. But always trying for this nation, and the administration should be lauded for it.
Where are the surrogates? Far and few between and msm will never help.
T & his administration gets used to fix or stabilize a ton of broken or almost broken shit in this country and throughout the world, and then the knives come out immediately for the next election from all sides.
All, imo.

Pitiful options? Sure. The nature of a dead, calcified two-party "system". The Trump phenomenon clearly illustrates how dead the system is, but also how rebellion can work. Whole lot a rebellion going to be needed - and not just in presidential cycles - to overwhelm the inertia.

Re-electing Thune to the leadership or any leadership position would be the biggest insult possible to Republican voters and Certainly Trump voters.
It would literally be saying to Republican voters that they will never ever, under any circumstances represent them.
And if that's the case...well, why support or vote for them?
All of this could've been prevented with a cooperative Congress, now the whole country goes down with the Democrats promised Turbo-Biden destruction and inflation.

We saw it yesterday and enjoyed it. Lots of Godzilla goodness. So, many great p[arts and set pieces.
I really liked the opening, where Ghidrah's theme screeches like a repeating musically alarm and the screen opens up to Ghidrah rampaging destruction.
Sent chills up my spine and make think "This is gonna be a good movie."
Surprisingly, the little girl is an excellent actor better than some of the adults.
Is it as good as "Godzilla Minus One"?...no, this is one of those movies where there's too much plot
and it gets in the way sometimes and slows things down.
Still, a very good movie and a fun time at the flicks.
Definitely, worth seeing on the big screen.

The 2028 Senate map looks brutal. Republicans must be shitting bricks on this one; a 60 seat majority is not an unreasonable goal!
Assuming the Democrats need 4 flips to get to 60, what are the realistic targets? Wisconsin, North Carolina, Iowa...Getting a 4th starts seeming tough.
And in 2030....Ted Cruz (TX) getting taken out finally... especially due to the electorate shifting he must be scared shitless now.
It depends what happens in the next two years. If Trump doubles down and democrats run Ossoff, every Republican seat is potentially winnable if Republicans nominate the wrong candidate. You don’t get more red than Mississippi and South Carolina.
During the next two years, the economy for “everyday Americans” is just going to get worse as a consequence of bad decisions Trump and the GOP have already put in place. voters in 2028 will rightly blame Trump for the unfolding disaster. Dems will take the White House and expand their congressional majorities in 2028. The challenge for Dems after 2028 will be to satisfy voters’ unrealistic expectation that Dems will quickly repair the damage Trump has done.

Ahmed and I have totally different ideas about "dignity." Perhaps his ideas come from an attitude that one's dignity comes from how many people are being forced to serve you?

Indeed. I can think of 544 others who need to go, as a feeble start. We can start working through the other ~.5m after those guys break ground on the canal at the Port of Anchorage.
Once they're exhausted, we can start using excavators and paid labor, etc., to get to the Port of New Orleans - while always keeping barracks at job sites for the Lot's Wives who looked back. They can always dig. Every little bit helps.

That opportunity is now.
It should’ve been done right after the tea party got wiped out by the same class of people that led to this wipeout. I don’t have faith that this will happen and we will know after the leadership hearings. Hope isn’t a plan, and if we have to put faith into the people that have been continuously running this party into the ground then it will be a grim future.

"George Frederic Watts (23 February 1817 – 1 July 1904) was a British painter and sculptor associated with the Symbolist movement. Watts became famous in his lifetime for his allegorical works, such as Hope and Love and Life. These paintings were intended to form part of an epic symbolic cycle called the "House of Life", in which the emotions and aspirations of life would all be represented in a universal symbolic language."

Blindfolded Woman: Represents the inability to see the future clearly, yet still striving for optimism.
Lyre with One String: Symbolizes the fragility of hope; despite the damage, the remaining string suggests that there is still potential for beauty and music in life.
Globe: Indicates the vastness of the world and the weight of despair that can accompany it.

The universal themes in this are subtle but clear and have been used throughout literature. This could be Alfred the Great and his meeting with the Virgin Mary when on the brink of annihilation from invaders. It could be Samwise in Mordor seeing the one distant star untouched by darkness and despair. It could be anyone who has prayed at the bed of a loved one in peril.
An alternate title could be Faith.

This is how far the Democrat lawfare agenda has already escalated:
Ayanna Pressley wants Republicans held accountable for "crimes against humanity."
"Starving, hungry children. Denying people essential health care. The list is long."
This was after listing other punishable offenses such as "Black women pushed out of the workforce," tariffs and the unemployment rate.
In other words: It doesn't matter what the grievances are, Democrats want them contorted into prosecutable crimes.
Affordability, everyone!

The communist New York City mayor has quietly been asking President Trump's team to release individuals held in ICE custody, according to a Monday report from Politico.
Sources and quotes from Mamdani himself show that his inexplicably cordial relationship with the President had previously expanded into an open line of communication on specific immigration enforcement issues. According to Politico, that communication came through former Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.

Jennifer Welch says her advertisers were "harassed" into dropping the show.
"Sadly, some of the advertisers have caved. But we still have other advertisers, and we're still standing."
Little companies are apparently stepping in to try to save them.
They read a message from a brewery in Wisconsin that called Charlie Kirk "an awful human being" and wanted to help sponsor the show.
Welch called that "so sweet," then did a shout out for the company for free.
At last count, around 30 sponsors have dropped the podcast.

Litany are the worst kind.
She's been suspended since 2020.
"Judge Kahlilia Davis was accused of abusing court powers and interfering in the work and livelihood of a process server for the court, even lying under oath. In 2020, the Michigan Supreme Court suspended Davis for failing to keep a video record of the court cases in violation of Michigan Court rules.
Following that 2020 suspension, Davis made headlines again in 2022 when the Michigan Judicial Tenure Commission found her unfit to serve. She purposely unplugged courtroom recording equipment, threatened coworkers (even using Bible verses to do so!), used a fake handicap placard so she could park closer to buildings, lied under oath, and abused other court powers."

I guess this is not the same brewery in WI that said they would offer free beer if Trump was killed? That one lost their liquor license.
I've never been in the brewery or bar business, but it would seem to me common sense that you not pi** of much of your clientele. The bar/restaurant business is on a knife edge anyway as far as profit.

The Morning Report — 11/10 /26
President Donald Trump declared Monday that Iran’s military is effectively defeated and another U.S. offensive appears unlikely, signaling that the months-long conflict could soon end following talks with Qatar’s prime minister.Gee, and such perfect timing the welcome announcement coming as it does precisely a week after the midterm elections where the conflict in Iran was in many quarters a campaign issue that in sone ways rightly or wrongly contributed to the disastrous showing for the GOP. Will there be an official surrender on board the deck of the USS Missouri, conveniently parked somewhere in the Strait of Hormuz so that the Houthis can attack it a la the USS Cole with Islamikaze suicide boats? And no doubt Iran's renewal of its efforts to build nuclear weapons will go the way of its Mullah-controlled government — that is it will ramp up yet again. On this fercockter sour note, yes it's not just the lyrics but it's also the fact that the music that it engendered included the vomitus inducing screeches of Yoko Ono. And so we go from the President's declaration on Iran to this madness about the border and immigration policy. I mean what the ever-loving Effing hell?!
President Donald Trump denied Monday that his administration is considering amnesty for illegal immigrants, clarifying remarks he made in an interview over the weekend suggesting he might be open to striking a deal with Democrats. During an interview with 60 Minutes, the president told CBS News’ Ross Douthat that he would “love” to work with Democrats on immigration, said the issue had both “helped and hurt” him in the midterms, and suggested that he might allow certain illegal immigrants to remain in the United States.Working with the Democrats is the exact same thing as working with Hamas and Iran's Mullahs. Maybe, maybe they'll throw you some sort of a bone that has a huge string attached to it but in the next two years, if they can't actually impeach convict and remove you from office — remember they now control both chambers and they're on a mission from ...Satan... as they have been for years — they will do everything they can to completely undermine you by any and every means at their disposal. Because the real goal is not just removing you as their bête noire but removing every last vestige of America as founded, that is whatever yet remains of it, so they can cement absolute power generationally and forever.
Every generation of Americans is told that some emergency justifies setting the Constitution aside just this once. Today’s “emergency” comes with a slogan: saving democracy. Strip away the branding, and the Democrat Party’s structural agenda looks like something entirely different—and reminiscent of the old Bolsheviki power play 100 years ago but recast for gaining control of U.S. institutions. Two new states, a packed Supreme Court, the end of the filibuster, an end run around the Electoral College, federal control of elections, and a government apparatus for policing “disinformation” are not a plan to save democracy. Taken together, they are a plan to make a future Democrat Party majority permanent. That was the Bolsheviki goal, too....THE PATTERN: WIN ONCE, NEVER LOSE AGAIN...THE ACCELERANT: A COLOR REVOLUTION IN WAITING . . . There is a constitutional answer for the Democrats’ plan. Constitutional conservatives do not need to match the Democrats with a plan of their own. We need only insist on the rules the Framers wrote. If DC deserves statehood, if the Electoral College should go, if justices should serve fixed terms, then Democrats are free to make that case via constitutional amendments or Article V and persuade three-quarters of the states to agree. They know they cannot, and that is exactly why they are trying to go around it. The rest of us, in South Dakota and across the country, should refuse to let them.The Constitution is what they've wiped their ass with for nearly 200 years now. There is nothing to stop them. The courts. please that is their first line of defense!!! So the question is How many divisions do they have? No really, should we God-Forbid wind up with a POTUS Titty-Caca AOC and VOP El-Sayed in the not too distant future, they'd have the military, would they obey their orders? More to the point is that the question really is How many divisions do WE have?! On these sour notes, one final thought: Tom Massie is a Titanic reeking, abject piece of shit.
Some people can take a hint. Soon-to-be former Rep. Thomas Massie is not one of those people. Voters in his Kentucky district sent him packing on May 19, and he seems intent on breaking whatever he can before he leaves at the end of the year. He does not even have the leverage to say he could have won a district Republicans lost on Tuesday. The man who defeated him in the Republican primary, Ed Gallerin, beat his Democrat challenger in the general by 13 points. Now he is going out with a bang, forcing an impeachment vote on Secretary of War Pete Hegseth this Wednesday. From his office: Massie is doing this because he doesn't dare do what he really wants to do: introduce articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump. It is even more obvious since pretty much every one of the "high crimes and misdemeanors" listed by Massie are things Hegseth either did under orders from the Commander in Chief or with his approval.As horrendous as last Tuesday was, if by some miracle we not only survive the aftermath but it it also leads to the complete evisceration of the GOP of cancerous lesions like Massie, Thune, et al and the restoration of a real pro-American anti-Leftist party we can rally behind then perhaps it will all be worth it. Until then, hunker down, and God bless us all, and despite everything I bid you to have a good day.

...Plus it has a kind of Tower of Babel vibe to it. “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens"
The key phrase follows where God decides to confound their language because He observed that together "there is nothing they can't do" — and that phrase has haunted Torah scholars for millennia.
I have coined the phrase "babelized" to describe any system that is too complex to be understood or properly managed. Like running a nation in a command economy. Which is the direction the former US is heading. Which may be possible with AI ... in theory.
Personally, I see it more spiritualized and AI is the head-fake. Its the joining together the people groups (ref Table of Nations) who were scattered into a mass so that their spiritual princes will be together to pick up on their rebellion against God that they began shortly after The Flood.

Dems signed up a bunch of new voters. Republican vote numbers were on par with past midterms. So if those newly signed up Dem voters are legit, then minimal cheating… I tend to think they’re legit.

I'm of the group that believes that human history has a distinct beginning and end that has a foundation in purpose.
To achieve that end, particularly since the war is spiritual not carnal, there are certain requirements. Given that each of the nations (as in Table of Nations) who were separated at Babel have their own spiritual princes (angels/demons/whatever) that a reunion is required — thus there is a physical requirement for the dispersed nations to gather in an economic environment that permits some level of reintegration (physical infrastructure is needed for the humans who are the "hands" of the princes).
Therefore, it is inevitable, indeed a cosmic requirement that immigration is restored to satisfy the time-line.

We can’t take back the Senate until 2032 at the earliest, which means even if a Republican wins in 2028, he won’t be able to confirm new SCOTUS justices without donk sign off.
And if a donk wins in 2028, we’ll Katy bar the door.

Did the present to an officer?
Did they use a valid entry point?
Did they file the paperwork?
Did you drive a car once you were here?
A whole home generator needs 5 permits in some cities I have worked with and each of those permits could have 3 or 4 requirements for the permit and another 2 or 3 inspections. You can have 10 to 15 violations with 1 install!

But, even though I can see the light at the end of this tunnel, it's extremely irritating. More irritating than it's been for the rest of my life, really, because it's like when you've been holding in a huge dump for 200 miles and you know there's a toilet just two exits ahead.

The Pentagon does not maintain complete records tracking its worldwide pool of roughly 26 million spare F-35 parts that are collectively worth about $31 billion, the Government Accountability Office said in a report released Nov. 9. What records it has are often inaccurate, incomplete, and don’t reflect real-time changes, the congressional watchdog added.

“Be honest,” retired Lt. Col. James A. “Jamie” Gottschling said when asked what he would tell Moore. “His service in Afghanistan was good. He was a valued member of the brigade staff.” But he added, “It’s disingenuous to say that you led paratroopers in combat or that you did what would be direct action activities in a combat zone.”
Gottschling’s knowledge of Moore’s daily activities in the combat zone adds a firsthand perspective to Spotlight's examination of Moore’s path to Afghanistan, his duties and his combat claims.

In the late '30's or early 40's:
God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
And supremely happy with Him forever in the next.
Amen.

I think Rubio and DeSantis have shown they can fight, though differently than Trump. Less effectively? DeSantis racked up a lot of wins in Florida. He fought the Left in creative and daring ways, and showed a relentlessness usually unseen among Republicans. Rubio has shown a total fearlessness of the media. So, yes I think they can fight.
As for Vance, forget it. He's a slick triangulator. Whatever "fight" he shows will be self-serving, without the stamina of conviction.

Take drug cash, buy shit property that needs serious work. Buy materials in drug cash. Pay for your labor using drug cash. Flip property. Use new laundered money to buy less shitty property where there would be questions if paid for with a duffle bag full of money.
Now you have a fresh bankable trail and appear legit and your G Wagon has money source provenance.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
That is why there must be illegal alien work force if you are going to have a multi-billion dollar cash-based cartel operations working in your country.
Works same way for meat-packing and any other captured industry that leverages swarms of illegals.

In October, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers rose 0.4 percent, seasonally adjusted (SA). The index for all items less food and energy rose 0.3 percent in October (SA).
If you look at the M2 from the BBB and IRA they added around 40%. I think there is still around 10% to 12% more inflation that will need to be baked into the system over the next 2 years.

🇶🇦 TOP TRUMP SOCIAL MEDIA ADVISER ACCUSED OF SECRET QATAR PAYMENTS 🇶🇦
For months, Trump adviser Alex Bruesewitz has been waging a holy jihad against pro-Israel commentators critical of Qatar, including Mark Levin, Josh Hammer, Eyal Yakoby, and yours truly, repeatedly insinuating (or outright starting) that we're being paid to promote Israeli interests.
Ironically, just FIVE DAYS AGO, Alex declared, "I don't take any money from Qatar."
Well, the New York Times now reports that his former business partner, Derek Utley, alleges Alex received approximately $500,000 from individuals linked to Qatar through an undisclosed business or consulting arrangement.
What's that cliché about every accusation being a confession?"

It's the fact of the primary that matters. The moment Trump declared his candidacy, his nomination was a foregone conclusion. This was obvious to literally every person in America, and DeSantis would know it better than most.
The only possible """purpose""" for his campaign was to obstruct the presumptive nominee and rake off campaign donations.

The "high crimes and misdemeanors" are simply that the followed Trump's illegal orders (very effectively, by the way). This is the camel's nose under the tent. You get a bi-partisan impeachment through that exposes Trump's crimes in the process, then the next logical step is to impeach Trump. I think that's the deep state color revolution based plan anyway. Massie probably has some really sick stuff that he is being blackmailed on. Or maybe he's just been Tucker Carlsoned.

Without tripping the "takings clause" in the Bill of Rights, simply apply sanctions against the financiers. You aren't taking the money, they just lose control of it until certain conditions are met. Most billionaires are invested and living off of low-interest loans that they pay off and take the tax right-off. Sanction that shit too.

In all honesty, I’m getting close. I was thinking back to 1976, a young Republican in college and how we knocked on doors til our feet were numb, as volunteers for Reagan’s campaign. Reagan won the TX primary but of course lost to Ford. And then all the volunteering for our side in the decades following. This “vote” has felt like a death in the family. I wake up on Wednesday and my beloved home state is now CA? A gut punch doesn’t come close, it’s more like a wooden stake through the heart with no anesthesia. TX was blue way back in the day, but it was a blue dog blue, not a red-green alliance blue. What’s coming in what should have been my golden years scares me to death. We were the crown jewel the left salivated over. And they stole it. I don’t know where we go from here. (Getting rid of Thune would be a start)

Key points:
The FDA requirement applies to one dozen GLP-1 drugs approved since 2005, including Eli Lilly's Mounjaro and Zepbound and Novo Nordisk's Ozempic and Wegovy.
NAION is caused by decreased blood flow to the front part of the optic nerve, though the underlying cause is not fully understood.
An FDA analysis of clinical trials found a NAION rate of 6.4 per 100,000 patients treated with a GLP-1 compared to 3.8 per 100,000 in comparison groups.
Of 15 probable NAION cases identified in clinical trials, 10 were in patients treated with GLP-1s and five were in patients who received a placebo.
The FDA did not find any cases of NAION in patients receiving other types of glucose-lowering drugs.

The fees are required to go up. Banks have expenses.
Also 10% is arbitrary there is no science other than the art of grabbing a number out of one's ass.
The fluctuating interest rates reflect a very well understood science of actuarial, credit-risk, Fed rates, money supply, transactional volume, average balances, risk pool, KYC, etc.
Declaring by fiat that a Second Chance prospective credit builder is going to have the same discipline as a well established occasional card user who clears the balance each period should be treated as identical risk-reward accounts is absolute folly and should be stopped by the 5th Amendment.

US District Judge Kathleen Cardone, a George W. Bush appointee, previously issued a preliminary injunction blocking border wall construction in Texas’s Big Bend region and Big Bend National Park.
The scope of Judge Cardone’s order included patrol roads, border barriers, or related infrastructure.

I have a very clear memory from army basic training. I’m a military newbie and clueless… we’re doing calisthenics and a lieutenant walks by me and says “we’re gonna get you in shape, private”…. I made the mistake of assuming that he was being friendly and so I responded with an enthusiastic “that’s great”…. He was not happy that I dared speak to him so he got in my face and uttered only one word and it was clear he was unhappy with me. That one word: Buddy!
Clearly he was communicating that I was not and never would be his buddy haha

I remember being told after the 2020 election Trump was finished and so was the America First movement.

It was over becore the 2016 election. PDT has just been delaying things. You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube on all this shit the progs have done, war, balkanization, or both are inevitable and have been for a decade.

Oh bullshit. Most don't even know yet how the election was lost. It has nothing to do with gas prices.
The left can be beaten once people realize what we are fighting.

Hell yes!!
The Right has been fantastic at debating, and complaining, and snarking, and mocking, but the time for that is over.
I'd love to see the Right start to put together some resources to begin organizing on the level of the Left. The remnants of the blogosphere is about all we have left.

There's your answer to why Trump is going soft.
Sorry for late post.

From the ONT: (In part) Declare that from today on, he (Trump) will sign literally anything Congress puts on his desk. Go on, let's party. Everything you want. Lean into some ridiculous EOs, too.
Give the lousy shits exactly what they want and drive this bitch into the ground. It's not like anything was going to get better otherwise.

At this moment, 🤷♀️. The ACA and Medicare/Medicaid largely state driven, intentional fiasco is huge and also needs brakes or we're going down fast.
But, from Ace's Quick Hits yesterday:

Don't blame Tucker. He was trying to help Republicans when he abandoned the party, then fabricated a story on the eve of the election that Trump wants to drop a nuke and start WWIII, destroying the entire world.
And don't say this influenced anyone. It was only viewed 100 million times.

And also, as much as I don't want to reference this: Axios, MAGA castoffs plot 2028 spoiler bid, Nov 8, 2026
In part, "An unusual coalition wants to recruit outgoing Rep. Thomas Massie as the Libertarian Party's 2028 ..

"The big picture: The plan is for libertarians to claim dibs on the "America First" agenda, mainly focusing on anti-war sentiment.
Organizers believe they can build consensus among supporters of the MAGA wing that's closer to Tucker Carlson, former Trump official Joe Kent and former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), as well as disillusioned "Make America Healthy Again" activists and populist-inclined voters on the right and left." (Much more follows.)
Bingo!
USAID and other Federal agencies & non-profit foundations & institutes, plus other diabolical groups (AKA civil society overseas) at work.

I wondered, What is Red Seat Ventures and how is it tied to Tucker Carlson, MTG, etc.?
Reportedly, Fox Corp. acquired Red Seat Ventures, a media company that specializes in right-leaning podcasts and live events.
AI Overview: Founded by media executives Chris and Kevin Balfe, the company builds the "back-end" monetization machinery (such as ad placement, premium subscription tech, and and live events like CrimeCon) for personality-driven networks.
Posted by: L - No nic... at November 10, 2026 11:11 AM (NFX2v)
Red Seat Ventures, a division of Fox Corp's Tubi Media Group, operates a network of shows from personalities including Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Bill O'Reilly and Piers Morgan.
Now, as part its parent company's ongoing push to capitalize on the creator economy, Red Seat is looking to empower any podcast creator to make money with Speakeasy: a new owned-and-operated platform developed within Fox aimed at providing creators with monetization, hosting and distribution services — all in one place." Massie could very well sign on.
Also, By refiling his paperwork with the Federal Election Commission (FEC), he explicitly authorized his principal campaign committee to continue raising money and entered into a joint fundraising arrangement to distribute political donations. (Daily Caller +1)
Massie stated on social media that keeping the committee active allows him to fund his ongoing political operations, cover costs associated with his remaining time as a current officeholder, and maintain a financial war chest for whatever federal office he ultimately decides to pursue in 2028. (UK Guardian + 2)
🤬 F these people. (I'll denounce myself.)
Good day.
