Somali Aspiring Doctor and/or Engineer Arrested for Plotting to Shoot Up the Mall of America for ISIS

We're hitting Economic Contribution and Cultural Enrichment levels that shouldn't even be possible!

In another persuasive example of how diversity increases our strength, the FBI conducted what appears to have been a sting operation that netted a Minnesotan Somali man who was planning a terrorist attack at the Mall of America later this month.


Details of the plot are still emerging, and it's unclear whether the man was acting alone. Clearly, the FBI had reason to suspect him, since the charges indicate that he bought a weapon from an FBI agent and discussed his intentions, pledged support for ISIS and terrorism in general, and his desire to die for Allah. Obviously, something directed the FBI to this man as the plotting was going on, since they had been following his movements for two years.

Some People Plotted to Shoot Some Other People.


According to an affidavit unsealed on Wednesday, FBI agents arrested 18-year-old Sheikhdoon Abdullahi Mohamud on Tuesday directly after he purchased an AK-47 and 200 rounds of ammunition with the stated intent of carrying out a mass shooting.

The criminal complaint alleges Mohamud had messaged an informant for nearly two years, discussing his hatred of non-Muslims and his desire to align with an Islamic terror group. He floated the idea of joining al Qaeda and al Shabaab before deciding to lend his support to the Islamic State.

Mohamud repeatedly expressed his admiration for Islamic terrorist attacks, including the New Year's Eve 2024 attack on Bourbon Street in New Orleans; the 2017 Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida; and the 2025 mass shooting during a Hanukkah gathering at Bondi Beach in Sydney.

When the informant tried to talk Mohamud out of such an attack, he replied, "I am 100% committed [sic] to the cause of dying for the sake of Allah only."

Messages indicated he planned to target the Hmong Arts Celebration at Mall of America on Oct. 24 because "it will be a lot of people." ... During that transaction, he explained that he was "an active member of ISIS" and that "part of his motivation was that the Mall of America was owned by Jews," the complaint states.

Meanwhile: United allows a jihadi to fly its commercial planes.

A United Airlines pilot who described the October 7 attack as "resistance by a brave people" and said it was "not unprovoked" is still flying passengers for the airline.

Ibrahim R. Mossallam was temporarily removed from flying duties after the post sparked outrage, but later returned to the cockpit. Since then, he has continued posting strongly anti-Israel statements.

Mossallam also serves as Vice President of the Board of CAIR-New York.





Related: Two Maryland Men are arrested for stabbing an off-duty NYPD officer.

I imagine that one of the violent street muggers is a Doctor, and the other, an Engineer.

The two thugs accused in the cowardly stabbing of an off-duty NYPD detective are both illegal migrants from the Dominican Republic who snuck into the US under former President Joe Biden, according to officials.

Each of them also had been later busted for various crimes in Gotham -- but released because of soft-on-crime laws and the Big Apple's Sanctuary City rules preventing law-enforcement cooperation with ICE.

The criminals had attacked Detective Jose Mercedes as he was grabbing items out of the trunk of his car at Rochambeau Avenue and East 208th Street in Norwood in The Bronx around 1:45 p.m. Friday, cops said.

The brazen pair pulled up to Mercedes on e-bike, then tried to snatch the cop's gold chain, authorities said. The cop fought back and was stabbed seven times by the violent muggers, who sped off and left the detective bleeding on the sidewalk, police said.

Mercedes, who is assigned to the 44th Precinct in The Bronx, miraculously survived the attack because the knife missed his vital organs, sources said. He was rushed to Jacobi Medical Center and treated for his injuries before being released Monday.

Police identified his alleged attackers Tuesday in the midst of a continuing massive manhunt for them.

"Both of these suspects were released into the country by the Biden administration, and despite multiple prior arrests in New York, sanctuary politicians refused to cooperate with ICE and released them," said Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin in a statement.

"These suspects remain at large," Mullin said. "DHS is calling on New York authorities to cooperate with us so we can get these dangerous criminals off our streets."

...

Mejia and his family illegally crossed the US border with Mexico near San Luis, Arizona, in December 2022 and were nabbed by border patrol agents but released into the country, authorities said.

Mejia was then arrested in The Bronx on a weapons-possession charge last year -- a rap that was not bail-eligible -- and he was released, authorities said.

DHS, which oversees ICE, said Mejia also had other previous raps against him: criminal possession of stolen property, possession of burglar's tools and grand larceny. The disposition of the charges was unclear.

If you are booking a flight on United Air, maybe you should think twice. This is the caliber of people they have flying your planes.

So, this pilot defended Hamas killing innocents in Israel. Rightfully, United Air removed him from the cockpit.

The ridiculous pilot's union defended him so he got his job back.

Nick Shirley Exposes How Bums Sell Taxpayer-Funded Food Stamps to Scammers -- Often "Foreign" -- for Cash to Buy Drugs.
The Homeless Bums Chase Him Down the Street for Exposing the Scam.

Mediaite:

That all came after a wild investigation which showed how street hoods trade their SNAP funds for cash -- or fentanyl, oftentimes. Shirley likened it to swapping Pokemon cards, only this was for pennies on the dollar; he asked a man who said he had $306 on his food stamp card how much he was willing to deal it for, and the man said he was willing to sell it for $120.

Shirley then linked up with a middle-aged woman from Vietnam who said she could make a deal with him. She ushered him over to a seafood market where the cashier rang them up for $120 for a can of spam and one plate of sushi; Shirley -- who was donning a Seahawks beanie and face mask as he tried to hide his identity -- said it was clear the woman was part of a "mafia-style ring," where she was getting a kickback from the store for funneling bogus food stamp deals to them.

I assume the woman would then "refund" him like $60, taking $120 in a "sale" of one can of spam (which taxpayers pay for) and then giving the guy presenting the card half of that back in cash.

After leaving the store together, Shirley and his crew confronted the woman.

"You're committing fraud. Food stamp fraud. It's against the law," Shirley told her.

The woman took it in stride. "I know, yeah." She then started ratting other people out on the street who were apparently running the same scheme.

Shirley then returned to the seafood market to ask why they were allowing the fraud to take place. While there, all hell broke loose on the sidewalks outside, with one of the security guards trading blows with a "homeless individual" -- which led to his gun falling out in a crowd of suspected fentanyl addicts. The security guy then started punching other guys around him when no one would return his gun.

Once he was filled in as he was leaving the store, Shirley and the other members of his crew started running for safety. A homeless suspected drug addict tried to join their getaway, but he apparently couldn't keep up.

"I'm on fenty, I can't run!" the man yelled as Shirley skirted off.


Nick shirley
@nickshirleyy

🚨 1 can of Spam for $120.

Food stamps have become the new ATM for fraudsters as they partner with local businesses to commit the fraud as they trade SNAP cards like Pokémon cards on the streets.

Across America food stamp fraud is happening everywhere. It has become a billion dollar fraudulent industry as taxpayers fund the $100 billion program.

We caught a fraudster on the streets of Seattle as she attempted to buy a can of spam and sushi for $120 in a food stamp for cash exchange, it's a billion dollar fraudulent scheme stealing from the poor and hungry. This is a must watch and is happening everywhere.

EXPOSE AND SHUT IT ALL DOWN.



Update: They're trying to just kill conservative journalists.

And then the second and 3rd order, the businesses and such all funded all or mostly by the fraud.

Go for it. And here's some extra potent ketamine, heroin, or fentanyl to do so with. No reason at all to prolong their misery with drugs that don't kill them outright. Let's get to it.

72 I like programs that sort of outsmart these people, similar to handing an illegal a free plane ticket out of here. Way cheaper than actually deporting.

What about you have a choice, an EBT card if you qualify or just like a $100 monthly Visa gift card, no questions asked. I bet at least half would take the $100.

You can't win because these EBT cards were a form of privatization, like not having "government cheese" like they used to, because it the cost goes up 10x if the government makes anything.

But the reality is just handing people credit cards is not "feeding" the poor, it's just another form of welfare.

And now you have big food corporations fighting to keep EBT dollars flowing.

And you can't just hand it to the states to manage because big blue states brag about the fraud and get their cut.

You just have to end these programs.

This is why I've been selective about my Christmas giving. I pick the kids whose parents are in jail, so they are getting fostered. The kids also have to not be illegal (yes, there are programs that do not include illegals). I figure no matter how well off they might be in foster care, it still helps to get a little something from someone else.

I also refuse to do the gift card requests. That's just another form of resale by parents for drugs/alcohol/bad habits in most cases with nothing going to the kids.

Are you kidding? this is the easiest crime in the world to stop

- Put bounty on convictions.
- Use tracking of people, and what cards they get, and what they spend
- use tracking of purchases.
require biometric id for all purchases with snap
- deport any non-naturally born involved
- CLAW BACK from stores treble damages of any fraud found

There are a hundred tools that can be used, but the government doesn't give a shit because it is not their money, and local governments see it as a revenue source. They are all in a competition to steal the most from the feds so they can stay "ahead".

I periodically get served content where well-meaning people go find homeless people and buy them some new clothes and give them a place to shower and sleep for a night. Noble enough, but about half the time the guy asks what they need and it's "my phone broke, can you help me get a new phone?"

I volunteered at a food bank some years ago. You could always tell the people/families that genuinely got cornholed by life through little to no fault of their own and temporarily needed a hand versus the regulars who treated the food bank like it's part of their weekly grocery shopping, because it was.

I found other ways to volunteer because having my generosity (and that of others) blatantly abused was not doing anything but pissing me off weekly.

Yeah, you have (in midwestern "normal" states) convenience stores where they won't sell you a 6-pack of beer if you left your wallet/ID in the car even though I'm almost 3 times the minimum age to buy the product. BUT, I'm supposed to believe that government can't put the same fear of God/government into stores who willingly participate in SNAP fraud?

156 The folks I knew that got Reagan cheese just used it. It was just a 5 pound block of cheese and not much used for trading. I do know that they used to keep adding to your EBT while you were in prison. One guy we knew was in a couple of months and had $400 on the card when he got out.

Posted by: Notsothoreau at October 07, 2026 05:03 PM (apFY6)

157 I don't even know how you'd begin to prosecute this.

Same way they prosecute stores selling booze to underage patrons. Send in undercover buyers. If they sell you something on EBT and give you cash, bust the hell out of them. Big fines. Remove their ability to process EBT.

Posted by: bonhomme at October 07, 2026 04:50 PM


Problem with that approach is the majority of states do not want to catch these people. And yes that includes some red states like Kentucky.


If you aren't busy look up the food stamp Kentucky pop train, it was/is a huge ebt scam. People go to walmart when the ebt cards get loaded and buy up every case of soda that they can. Then they drive to lexington or frankfort and sell that soda to a big buyer for 50 cents on the dollar for cash.


At the first of the month walmart would shove pallets of cokes to the front of the store to help these customers. Everyone knows it is going on, the fed says it is a state problem and the state says it is a fed problem.

Another scam is free school lunches. The whole school gets free lunch now, no matter the income of the parents/families. So a lot of these low income families kids get breakfast/lunch 5 days a week. They only have to supply food weekends and evenings. But that's too much for them, as they have internet, cigarettes, 3 cell phones, multiple cars, and government subsidized rent. Some schools actually pack food for the kids to take home on the weekends.

171 The thing is, if you start cracking down on stores that defraud EBT programs then a lot of these marginal stores and bodegas will stop dealing with EBT completely because it isn’t worth it if they can’t skim some profit.

Oh no he didn't, you might be thinking.

But Oh yes he did:


Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani
@NYCMayor


This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss.

The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government's devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians--including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them -- all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes.

Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment.

To honor the dead, we must fight for a world in which every person can live with freedom, safety, and dignity.

Note his justification of Hamas terror murders, kidnapping, and rapes is much more detailed and particularized than his brief, begrudging "Some People Did Some Things" blow-off of October 7.

Do you want the US to support full ethnic cleansing of the "Palestinian" territories? Because this is how you get the US to support full ethnic cleansing of the "Palestinian" territories.

And if you keep on justifying your cult's constant terrorism, you might see worse than that.

Keep it up. Keep telling us exactly what you really believe, and what you really have in store for us kafirs once you wipe the Jews off the map.


Noam Blum
@neontaster

"On this Holocaust Remembrance Day, let us take a moment to reflect on the lost beauty of Dresden..."



Last week, David Strom wrote that Islamists are increasingly brazen about admitting their plans for sharia law and the subjugation of non-Muslims -- but they get away with it because the communists they're in league with lie and say They Don't Really Mean It, Bigots.






After defending his fellow pro-terrorist Muslim Hasan Piker for a year, Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed only now calls Piker to tell him to stop telling the world what they really think only because it's hurting his poll numbers.

Just keep silent until November 7 -- then you can let it all hang out.


Black and Jewish leaders are warning that they and many in their communities need more outreach. Multiple people relayed to CNN conversations they've had with El-Sayed in which he's asked for their support but also noted that he can make up the votes he loses in their communities elsewhere.

...

"I'm not the Democrat the Democrats want, but I am the Democrat that Democrats have. And I am decidedly not a Republican. But this is what I'll tell you: I am a Democrat that Michiganders want," El-Sayed told CNN outside the food truck.

El-Sayed says he's been pressured to modulate his positions since he beat the more moderate Stevens in the August primary, though he insists he will not. But he talks less about the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which spent $33 million through its super PAC trying to defeat him, and sticks more to frustration over high prices for ground beef, gas and healthcare.

El-Sayed has quietly made one concession: He distanced himself from Hasan Piker after campaigning through the end of the primary with the streamer, who's said that Jews who keep supporting Israel should worry about their safety and that America is "pound for pound" worse than Al-Qaeda. El-Sayed recently called Piker and warned his rhetoric was costing El-Sayed votes, asking him to stop, according to two people El-Sayed told about the conversation. Piker did not respond to requests for comment.

Republican Mike Rogers predicts that he'll win 50% of the state's Jewish voters.


Don't worry: "Western" "elites" will keep telling you that Muslims don't mean what they keep on saying.

9 The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government's devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians--including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them -- all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes.

So when Bombdaddy rants about da JOOs the leftwing Jews assume he just means the believers and they are fine with whatever happens to them.

Of course the Jihadis, and honestly the whole rest of the left, see Jews, religions or not, as uber white devils.

63 So Mamdani is upset that the Israelis didn't just lie down and take it when Hamas RAPED BABIES and put them in ovens while alive. He doesn't think defending themselves is the right thing to do when Hamas tortured, raped and murdered both men and women, and took hostages. By defending themselves, he claims they are committing war crimes and "genocide." And yet, there is Hamas, just as big and evil as ever, not genocided at all, and supported by leftist asshats in the US.

In all honesty, if I was the leader of a country that was invaded by the country/territory/whatever next door on a murder, torture, rape expedition directed toward babies, children, and women and civilians in general.

I would do everything in my power to scour the land of those a-holes, destroy everything they have , then push them all out and take the land over.

I'm still surprised the Israelis didn't do that. The palestinians have conclusively proven that they can't be their neighbors at all.

My special contempt goes to them then whining about the effects of the war that they themselves started. It's almost incomprehensible except as demonic animal aggression. That islam is some religion, huh?

NEW: I'm told by federal sources that the parents of the 18-year-old man arrested by the FBI for allegedly plotting an ISIS inspired mass shooting at Minnesota’s Mall of America are both Somali nationals who first flew into New York in 2000 and were later naturalized into U.S. citizens. Mom in 2010, dad in 2017. It's unclear how they initially came in (visa, refugee, etc).

The suspect, Sheikhdoon Abdullahi Mohamud, was born in the US in 2008 before his parents were naturalized, and he received his US citizenship as a result of birthright citizenship.

DOJ says Mohamud's parents refused to speak with the FBI when they tried to make contact with the family last year when there were initial indications of potential radicalization.

Oct 7 was 3 years ago now, Israels genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians is ongoing to this day. If you're sour about mamdani pointing that out then go suck a lemon.

Truth to Republicans is like holy water to a vampire. Remember when Biden said bad things about Domestic terrorists, they raised holy hell and accused him of hating white people.

Americas mayor is right, Israel is committing genocide and being protected by both republicans and democrats.

If you want an actual solution, the both sides bad shit needs to go because it keeps the country from giving the clearly better party consistent power to be able to do something about this.

Any response by the party experiences these humanitarian and necessary actions does not have the right or obligation to respond in any fashion that would inconvenience the first party. Such behavior is qualified as "Genocidal Backlash."

Fvck off you fawning David Irving fan-boi.

Dresden was a legitimate military target that the Soviets requested the Western Allies bomb. It contained vital command and control functions along with intact rail network useful to rushing military soldiers and equipment to face the encroaching Soviets.

. . . and the Nazis inflated the Dresden casualty numbers by a factor of ten for propaganda purposes, then after the war the Soviets continued to echo the Nazi inflated numbers, to claim that the US and Britain were war criminals. You can still find the inflated numbers in a lot of references - 350,000 dead vs the reality of 28,000 - 32,000 dead.

Totally-Normal Rompin'-Stompin' Heterosexual James Talarico Mysteriously Vanishes for 11 Days As Campaign Comes to Climax

Mysteriously disappearing is totally a male thing to do and not something that Judy Garland would do on a pill-bender.

Joseph Chalfant at Townhall:

With just 28 days remaining until he faces off against Republican candidate Ken Paxton, Democrat James Talarico is nowhere to be found.

Talarico has not been seen publicly in Texas in over a week, with his last appearance occurring on Saturday, September 26, before he took a fundraising trip to New York City. There, he was treated to a VIP fundraising dinner where attendees, like a filmmaker who labeled America a "shithole" and a group that advocates for child sex change surgeries, were charged $27,000 a plate.

On Wednesday, September 30 Talarico was slated to speak with the U.S. Hispanic Business Council in the Rio Grande Valley, but instead joined virtually from a hotel because "his staff says he's ill and was unable to travel." During the appearance, Talarico claimed that he was forced to seek care at an urgent care clinic in Dallas, but social media users have disputed the timeline offered by the candidate.

Then, on Friday, October 2, the Talarico campaign chose to recycle footage from a February 22 rally before Talarico had even won the Democrat nomination, and tried to pass it off as current.

Next, his campaign cancelled an event slated for October 5 with the Central Texas African American Civic Engagement Symposium. The campaign has offered no explanation as to why the event was suddenly canned.

I don't want to spread any WITHOUT EVIDENCE theories. And like Candace Owens, I am not a medical doctor.

That said -- I think it's obvious that this is AIDS-related bipolar disorder.

He's got "the AIDS crazies."

Speaking of people missing from the campaign trail -- for some reason, Joe Biden, the Healthiest and Most Vital Man in the Whole of Christendom, is skipping out on campaigning for his fellow socialist civilization-razers.

Former President Joe Biden has been largely absent from the campaign trail as Democrats fight to win back House and Senate majorities in November, even as former President Barack Obama and former Vice President Kamala Harris step up efforts to boost the party's candidates.

Biden, 83, has kept a limited public schedule while battling advanced, metastatic prostate cancer. He has endorsed candidates and is helping Democrats raise money, according to a source in Biden's political circle. But the former president has made few political appearances this year.

The contrast is increasingly visible with four weeks to go until Election Day.

Obama is cutting ads for Senate and gubernatorial candidates, helping the party fundraise and preparing to hit the trail during the closing stretch of the midterm campaign. Harris, the Democrats' 2024 presidential nominee, is also campaigning across key battleground states, including a recent stop in Michigan with Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed.

Biden has appeared at just a handful of political events this year. He spoke in February at a reception honoring his 2020 South Carolina primary victory, which propelled him toward the Democratic nomination and eventually the presidency. In June, he addressed a Maryland Democratic Party event.

One of the two statements below is true, and one is false.

Can You find the true statement?

Longtime Democratic strategist Michael Ceraso told Fox News Digital that some in the party's elite and fundraising class are concerned that "if Biden were to be pushed out there in any sort of way for virtual or in-person opportunities, he could be a liability."

Veteran Democratic strategist Maria Cardona had a different take, telling Fox News Digital, "There are still a ton of Americans who love Joe Biden."

Talarico's partner in weirding everyone out, Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed, denies that he's a dual citizen of Egypt.

One problem with that -- he openly bragged about being a dual citizen on videotape.

Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed told a Detroit audience in 2016 that he has "dual citizenship" in the United States and Egypt, according to previously unreported video. It's the second time he's been documented making the claim, even though his campaign now claims he was never a dual citizen.

El-Sayed made the remark about his dual citizenship onstage at a GlobeMed conference in Detroit, where the far-left Democrat served as the city's health director at the time.

"I carry dual citizenship, and I grew up spending most of my summers in another country where I understood what it meant not to have the right to self-govern," said El-Sayed, whose parents emigrated from Egypt to the Detroit area in 1978.

El-Sayed went on to tell a story, one he still tells on the campaign trail a decade later, that he was questioned by Egyptian police during one of those summer visits for publicly cursing Hosni Mubarak, Egypt's president at the time.

The newly revealed 2016 video marks at least the second time El-Sayed has publicly claimed to have Egyptian status. His academic résumé stated in 2014 that he was a citizen of the United States and Egypt, the Washington Free Beacon previously reported.

El-Sayed's campaign told the Free Beacon, which reported in January on the dual citizenship claim made on his résumé, that El-Sayed was mistaken about his citizenship status.

Uh huh.

He can't even respond coherently to a softball question at a campaign event. He gets all flustered and nervous and starts babbling, like instead of snorting the K off the fratbro's dick, he snorted the dick off the K.

75 He gets all flustered and nervous and starts babbling, like instead of snorting the K off the fratbro's dick, he snorted the dick off the K.

76 When he made that comment "lay back...." no one batted an eye.

The reason is because he was a drunk and often said stupid things. He would often say quips and they usually had nothing to do with the previous story, so I think most people just didn't make the connection to the story about the girl and his quip. (at least, my family did not notice any reaction. Maybe there was one but it was not shock.)

The next day though, when he was not on and they gave an apology, we had to think about what it was he said that they were even apologizing for.

You see, his real problem, and the reason everyone thought he was going to be gone soon anyway, is that he was a drunk. On some nights he would slur his words and stumble as he gave the weather report. It was kinda funny, but kinda sad. I still think that was why he got fired. Stupid quips were not that unusual on the news in those days. OK, that one was insensitive, but I think really people were just fed up with him being publicly drunk every night. Very sad story, that.

A fight is brewing between El-Sayed's campaign and the black power centers in Michigan.

It will be interesting if he fails, which I think he will. The DSA types, the muzzies, AND especially the black community, need to learn that none of them can win by themselves, and that insisting on having everything your own way will keep them out of power altogether.

There are two major examples this year of preferred candidates of the black electorate (Crockett in TX and Stevens in MI) getting shafted for other representatives of other parts of the coalition (prog whites in the first and Arab immigrants in the second).

The lesson that will be learned is: Black people were robbed and would have won both races and they should run the party.

Other factions will fight it, but holy shit will the black community believe that they don't need to give any quarter to whitie or ragheads in the near future.

It's not like turnout can decrease in response to this sort of thing.

It's not like there is a long history of blacks doing this when their group preference loses the primary.

No one is arguing that blacks are going to turn Republican this election. You're setting up a strawman.

What will happen, and what we're already seeing happen at the precinct level of early voting, is that black turnout is crashing well below levels of whiter precincts that tend to vote Democrat. Blacks are checking out already.

But, your note about "blacks will vote 90%" is noted, even though no one asserted anything asserting that it wouldn't be like that.

90% of blacks who show up to vote will vote for the Hamas lover. That's true. But it's all a question of turnout. Blacks clearly don't like the guy and a statistically meaningful percentage will stay home or otherwise not vote. That's huge.

Same thing will happen in TX with the white twink creep, except I think on an even bigger scale. Because in TX, blacks think -- with reason -- that the white Democrap powerbrokers fucked over their preferred black candidate.

144 One of my favorite parts about the assumption of "The Emerging Democrat Majority" is that it relies not just upon 95% black vote rates forever but also Obama-level turnout of blacks forever.

Historically, black turnout was 55% or less. Often, IIRC, in the 45% range.
Obama had it up to 65%.

And look "unskew the polls" and all that--sure the polls could be right and blacks and the youth will turn out at Obama levels.
Or they may revert to the norm.

They're below their rate from the 2022 election in early voting in Ohio.

About 7.4%.

And the first day of in person early voting was yesterday, and it was...disappointing. Blue enclaves are down much more than the rest of the red state.

Surely, they'll come out on election day, right? Election day is the strongest day for Democrats to vote in recent history, right?

196 90% of blacks who show up to vote will vote for the Hamas lover. That's true. But it's all a question of turnout. Blacks clearly don't like the guy and a statistically meaningful percentage will stay home or otherwise not vote. That's huge.

Posted by: Elric The Blade

Turnout for Dems is going to be at 2022 level or lower. Possibly even 2014 and that makes it difficult for Dems in crucial House races in places like Texas, Florida, Ohio, and Michigan. If turnout drops, it will have downballot effects on Dems as GOP seems to be turning out at a bit over typical midterm levels so far.

AfD Wins Speakership of Regional Government in Saxony-Anhalt; Socialist Open Borders Spanish PM Calls for New Elections

The actual vote in the Saxony-Anhalt regional elections happened weeks ago. It was covered here. AfD won, but were three seats shy of gaining majority control of the regional parliament. As usual, the so-called "right-leaning" parties would join with socialists and communists to keep the AfD from ever exercising political power.

However, there was a far-left party which was willing to negotiate with AfD. The left-wing party is pro-Russia and had common ground with the AfD on this point.

The deal was struck -- AfD will control the regional government. They secured additional votes beyond those from the far-left party.

AfD leader Alice Weidel announced the news:

Alice Weidel
@Alice_Weidel

Oct 6

Translated from German

Congratulations to Tobias Rausch (AfD), the newly elected President of the Landtag of Saxony-Anhalt – and the first AfD Landtag President in the history of our party. Rausch received 48 votes -- and thus 9 more than the AfD parliamentary group has members. A great success!



PeterSweden
@PeterSweden7

Marine Le Pen is LEADING the polls to be next French President.

The right is LEADING the polls to win the upcoming Spanish election.

The AfD party has seen massive success in recent regional German elections.

The Freedom Party in Austria lead the polls at around 40%

The right wing/Libertarian FrP party of Norway has a massive lead with 35% support in latest poll.

The socialist Spanish PM who amnestied at least 500,000 illegal aliens and probably 1,000,000, Pedro "Dirty" Sanchez, has called for new elections. This is because his political position is weak and he wants a fresh mandate of support.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Monday called a snap election for Nov. 29, a vote that could signal the demise of the EU's last major Socialist government and remove one of Europe's chief critics of U.S. President Donald Trump from the political front line.

Already weakened by the corruption cases battering his Socialist Party, Sánchez took a further knock this summer when he faced fierce blowback over his handling of the ongoing migrant crisis in the North African exclave of Ceuta.

But the bitter topic of unaffordable housing -- something that tops the list of voters' concerns in Spain and which has sparked nationwide protests -- has finally prompted Sánchez to call an early election in an apparent bid to seize a campaign battleground he believes could work to his advantage.

But he's unlikely to get that. Political oddsmakers said he was 56% likely to be booted out of power -- and that was before he actually called for snap elections.

Visegrád 24
@visegrad24

BREAKING:

Snap elections in Spain this year and PM Sanchez's fall from power is now likely according to Polymarket.⁠com

The likelihood has skyrocketed from just 12% a few days ago to 56%

Sanchez will likely loose power to Vox and the PP party, that are expected to form a coalition government.

...


The related "next prime minister" market on Polymarket.⁠com has Feijóo near 80% and Sánchez around 13%.

Recent poll averages put PP near 33%, PSOE near 26%, and Vox near 18%, with PP+Vox seat projections often above the 176 seats needed for a majority coalition government.

The ongoing Ceuta migration crisis and upcoming legal cases based on corruption charges against Sánchez's wife Begoña Gómez and his close allies make snap elections this year a better choice than waiting for the term's natural end next summer.

Sanchez also believe that going to election on housing issues is much better campaign terrain for the left than mass-immigration and the invasion of Ceuta, which has greatly angered the Spanish public.

Now Polymarket says he's 70% likely to lose:

Eric Daugherty
@EricLDaugh

Oct 5

🚨 JUST IN: Socialist Spanish PM is likely to be OUSTED after his leftist government failed, and he called snap elections for Nov. 29

Center-right Feijóo's party has allied with populist Vox, and that could ENSURE Sanchez is no longer Prime Minister

70% chance the PP party -- center-right -- WINS, per Polymarket.⁠com

WAY BETTER THAN SOCIALISM. This party has worked with right-wing VOX, which I hope eventually wins NATIONAL control

MAKE IT HAPPEN, SPAIN! Trending in the right direction!

8 The Spanish PM is a real Dirty Sanchez

Posted by: Anna Puma at October 07, 2026 01:15 PM (2GVsD)

9 The socialist Spanish PM who amnestied at least 500,000 illegal aliens and probably 1,000,000, Pedro "Dirty" Sanchez, has called for new elections. This is because his political position is weak and he wants a fresh mandate of support.

========

He's also deeply corrupt, people in his inner circle (including his wife) have been arrested for it, and the country is pissy with him for a wide variety of reasons.

Also, betting sites are dominated by leftists who daydream a leftist utopia with their money, so 70% odds probably means 95%.

_______

The left loves rape when it serves their purposes. Same as in the USA.

The screeching harridans finger-popping each other to vilify the Cornell 7 over very dubious (at best) rape allegations? They are the exact same people who most support open borders, soft-on-crime policies, and letting rapists and murders roam the streets.

Our laws criminalizing rape no longer have much if anything to do with protecting women from rape or violence. Leftists don't care if women are raped. These laws are used to further leftwing ambitions and punish political enemies.

If Jane Doe went to a Somali frat and the exact same thing happened, it would be her that was vilified for not being sufficiently accepting of foreign criminals' sexual needs.

Recent Lotus Eaters had two Spaniards on who seemed to know, and they said Pedro Pascal(sp?) amnestied almost 1.5 million, which was way higher than estimates, and then they get to bring in family, so the number will be in the millions from this recent act of treason.

172 Speaking of boats, personal temperatures were more than a bit elevated at the boat ramp earlier today. It's a nice, sunny day, the last before wind and seas pick up in advance of the approaching hurricane, with many mariners who normally slip their boats looking to get them out of the water before the coming storm.

I was about no. 7 in the line up and just sat back and watched and listened to the shit-spewing going on between aggrieved parties -- those looking to put in for a day trip arguing with those wishing to pull out as to whose turn it was, as well as a one dude attempting to cut in the pull-out line. ("I HAVE TO BE AT WORK SOON!")

Also, it was a quite breezy so watching those with not much experience in trailering a boat in wind/current was rather amusing, especially the one presumably husband-and-wife couple yelling at each other complete with very, er, flowerful language.

People under stress can act really weird.

The Italian Democrat Party went from a major player in national politics in the 2000s to a runt party now. They are second largest in the Italian legislature, but 1st and 3rd biggest are right leaning and coalition together to the point where the Democrats have no say in anything.

They simply will not change course on the immigration question at all, no matter the decline.

And Meloni has gotten more hardline against immigration in the last couple of years in order to help her politically.

They married on October 10, 2016 and welcomed daughter Isabel, now four, in 2022.

I forgot Sally was just a Cat 2, I thought it was bigger. I guess because it was so slow and just hung over us. This is fast, but looks like we get the east side of the storm, which is no bueno.

Minnesota Under Siege By, Get This, Somali Gangsters

See video here of tribal gangsters brazenly shooting automatic weapons in the suburbs. They're not running. They know no one will come to chase them.


I can't believe it.

Of all the things I can't believe this is the most can't believiest.

The Somali gangbangers shot up a couple of towns right after a community meeting to air grievances about the Somali gangsters shooting up towns.

It's completely unbelievable.

Gunfire in Eden Prairie, Bloomington follows Edina 'gun violence' community meeting

Sources told Alpha News that the shootings in Eden Prairie and Bloomington were also related to Somali gangs.

I am nonplussed. I have shed of all of my plusses.


A community meeting was held at Edina City Hall Monday night to discuss recent violent incidents in the city and surrounding areas.

The recent incidents include shots fired on the campus of Edina's Our Lady of Grace church and school late last month, which the police chief later said involved Somalis, and a double shooting at Eden Prairie High School's homecoming game this past Friday, which that city's police chief later confirmed was Somali gang violence.

The deuce you say. The absolute deuce!


Hours after the meeting ended, Eden Prairie police confirmed that shots had been fired in yet another incident in their city Monday night.

...

Additionally, police are investigating a shooting in Bloomington that took place early Tuesday. Sources say that shooting was also related to Somali gangs.

For serious? This doesn't sound like the invaders from a warlord-controlled degenerate third-world hellscape of constant tribal warfare that I know.


Monday's community meeting in Edina, framed as a "community conversation addressing gun violence," began with a long prologue from Mayor Jim Hovland acknowledging the "Somali youth gang-type problem" in the metro area. Hovland followed up with comments about a potential "community cohesion problem" and urged people to avoid associating the violence with other people with Somali identity. "Somali families and other residents are understandably concerned" over being stereotyped or targeted, Hovland said.

Well that's the most important thing, worrying that the people causing the gangster shooting epidemic will be blamed for causing the gangster shooting epidemic. Let's not solve the gangster shooting epidemic, let's put all of our effort into making sure the people causing the gangster shooting epidemic don't feel bad about causing the gangster shooting epidemic.

One of the police chiefs from that video I linked at the top of the post stated that the Somali Gangster Shooting Epidemic isn't about poverty -- he said the "youths" shooting up neighborhoods live in "$3500 a month apartments" or in homes "worth more than my mortgage."

It's also not about money or drugs, surprisingly.

He says it's just about "social media beefs." Another way to say this is that foreign invaders come from a place where it expected and valorized that "youths" will form violent gangs to war with other violent gangs over nothing except position and advantage and reputation, and that Minnesota has imported the Somali warlord-and-gang problem.

What's amazing is that Doctors and Engineers would descend into such wanton violence.


...

Members of the public lined up to comment and were given about three minutes each to speak. Several Somali or East African commenters said they lived in the area and were also concerned about the violence. However, some wondered why officials were using the word "Somali" in connection to the gang violence and asked officials stop using the word Somali. They also asked for more investment in Somali youth through programs and funding as a potential curb to the violence.

Oh, the Somalis want state "funding." Again, I am open-mouthed in disbelief as if smacked in the face with a frozen carp.


Other commenters included a married couple who are Edina school bus drivers, one of whom stated he believed the violence was due to "spillover" from Minneapolis crime, which was "brought on by the sanctuary policies of Gov. [Tim] Walz."

That's as racist as it is true.

Local police want to take more aggressive measures-- but the Somali Criminal Protection Racket that is the Hennepin County government refuses.


*Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher is backing calls for a regional task force to address Somali gang violence in the Twin Cities.

*Fletcher criticized Hennepin County leaders as he pushed for a stronger regional response to recent gang violence.

* Fletcher said law enforcement needs to arrest more suspected gang members to send a message that shootings and violence will not be tolerated.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (FOX 9) - Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher threw his support behind a regional task force to tackle Somali gang violence while blaming weak prosecution of crime for letting the issue fester, specifically calling out Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty.

...

Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher is calling for a regional law enforcement task force to address what he describes as Somali gang violence across the Twin Cities.

...

The sheriff made it clear that the individuals responsible for the violence are a small fraction of the greater Somali community.

"I've told you the number is about 300," said Sheriff Fletcher. "We sent 250 letters to known gang members for the state fair. That number still is a good number, but we need to arrest a big chunk of these kids and send a message to the groups as a whole that we're not going to tolerate this type of shooting and violence. And I do want to I want to mention this number again, because this gets really politically contorted. We're talking about a small number of 300 children. There are over 100,000 Somalis living in Minnesota."

Fletcher explained that arresting even just 50 of the estimated 300 gang members would "dramatically" cut crime. He says he'd like to see 25 of those 50 face federal RICO charges.

"We have to be honest, right?" added Ramsey County Deputy Jama Shine. "We do have a gang problem. We do have a Somali gang problem, and we know who these kids are. We know their parents. We know where they live. They're very mobile, and they're causing a lot of problems in the community. I have to say this, the Somali community are not the first immigrants that dealt with gang issues, right? If you look at the 80s and the 90s. The Hmong community, Asian communities, and the only way to overcome it is to address the issue."

This problem, like so many others, begins with an arrogant, ideological fanatical woke white lesbian with a body type resembling a beer truck.

...

The sheriff also called out Hennepin County leaders for not taking enough action to confront the gang violence.

Specifically, he mentioned Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty and Hennepin County Sheriff Dawanna Witt. For Moriarty, the sheriff questioned whether the county attorney's policy on young offenders was effective.


...

"I don't actually think it would take any money myself," said Sheriff Fletcher. "It takes commitment. You know, the commitment we made in Ramsey County to retask some of these bodies. Hennepin County Sheriff's Office, we need Dawanna Witt to commit to this project. It cannot succeed over there if the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office doesn't put bodies into this mix, because they're the biggest agency over there."

...

Hennepin County Sheriff Dawanna Witt fired back at Sheriff Fletcher's comments during a press conference Tuesday afternoon in Bloomington. Witt was speaking about a shooting early that morning that police believe was also connected to gang violence.

Sheriff Witt said her department had already repurposed two task forces to focus on gangs that were working to provide information to regional partners. Speaking Tuesday, she told Fletcher to mind his own business.

"He just has a habit of talking about stuff he don't know nothing about," Sheriff Witt said. "He never called me and asked me that question. So just because he doesn't know doesn't mean it's not happening. So he shouldn't mind Ramsey County business."

EXCLUSIVE: 'We need honesty'

There have been 3 Somali gang shootings in the past 4 days in Minnesota. Elected officials say there are no Somali gangs here, and yet, Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher says there have been a hundred shootings and 14 Somali gang-related deaths in the last year. He's created a unit devoted to Somali gangs, and brought us inside.

Several of his deputies are Somali. Deputy Jama Shine tells me "I'm from the community. This case doesn't represent me. It doesn't represent our community. We need it to stop, and we need to hold them accountable."

Sheriff Fletcher @RamseySheriff likens the situation to what's happened in Europe: "we better work our butts off right now to fix this problem in the Somali community, or we are going to launch into a 200-year legacy that won't be unlike what some of the European countries are seeing."





Oh, this is fun: Remember that Minnesota "sports journalist" who got fired from her TV gig? The severe-looking lesbian who looks like a transgender Egon Spengler?

She says the only real problem here is the "stereotyping."

54 Lutheran Social Services of Minnesota and Catholic Charities were the primary religious organizations that facilitated the resettlement of Somalis in Minnesota. These faith-based nonprofits had extensive experience helping refugees establish themselves in the state, a foundation built during the earlier resettlement of Southeast Asian refugees in the 1970s and ’80s. They provided essential services such as housing, job placement, and mentorship, proving to the State Department that they could help new arrivals acclimate and become employed, which allowed them to sponsor large numbers of Somali refugees starting in the early 1990s.

California -- The source of all bad ideas; super-majority of insane far-leftists means every lunatic bad policy they dream up instantly become state law, soon after copied by every other state.
Michigan -- Dearborn. Detroit. Nuff said.

Sure, there are intermural hatreds and tribal beefs going back to an ancient relative who raped a rival's goat without permission. But it's all against the backdrop of money and drugs (and other criminal activity). Just like any other gang.

Shit concept, shit script, shit direction, shit CGI overkill, shit editing/continuity, shit wokeness, shit rip-off of GotG and Star Wars, and mostly shit casting. Not even Jason Mamoa could save this dumpster fire. The movie richly deserved its $150 million loss.

All this being said, the problem wasn't really casting the twit retard as SG. She actually wasn't that bad, and can act. The problem was the entire conception of SG for the movie. Who wants to watch a movie about a drunk, mumbling, depressed, mentally ill, semi-suicidal superhero? She's Supergirl, for fuck's sake.

I doubt anyone cares about SG as a stand-alone movie anyway. But whatever chance they had to make a SG movie that people might actually like, they bent it over and fucked it up the ass with the train wreck they made.

180 The New Mexico governor's race can be summed up over one issue. Greg Hull (R) wants to eliminate income taxes over the next couple years. Meanwhile Deb Haaland (Communist), who failed her bar exam and somehow managed to become Biden's Secretary of the Interior, wants to increase State spending on welfare/social programs, issue a few tax credits to people who are most likely are not paying taxes, and "lower costs." You can pretty much guess who's winning this race, and yes, she is going to be in complete disaster. In case you're curious how she ended up being the SOI, it's because she wears turquoise earrings and is a Navajo Nation member.

I think Crockett losing in TX was a serious blow to black turnout nationwide.

She had a national profile. She was the hope to win Texas. She was authentic and real. The black electorate knows on some level that they're passing their peak of power within the Democrat Party, and the shady way that the establishment pushed Talarico instead of her just settled into the black consciousness.

No, the Democrat Party is not on the black man's side, and yes, black people are just tokens to the Party.

Depressed turnout in black districts in Ohio which doesn't have a big racial element to any of its statewide races this year can be explained more than one way, but I think the Crockett loss is part of it.

Jacob Frey ran against a Somali last time for mayor of Minneapolis, and used the brilliant tactic of exploiting clan divisions to get a lot of Somalis to vote for him and not the Somali.

Ilhan Omar belonged to the same clan as the mayoral candidate, and furiously announced that Somalis who voted for Frey should all be deported.

Kamala is stupid and did make the Walz choice herself. She's also thin-skinned, blames white people for all of her problems, and will win the nomination on the backs of the black electorate.

Yes, Crockett is a viable option for Kamala well beyond reasons of, "Democrats out of power and on the defensive regarding election fortification for 4 years have the election more sewn up than in 2024 when they owned the DOJ and were coming off of getting away with 2020."

The reality is that the American black gangbangers probably joined with the Somali black gangbagers, as the latter gained power. The Somali blacks may even have started as members of American gangs and eventually took them over.

The history of organized crime and street gangs is ... complicated. At a time when the black gangs were at war with the hispanic gangs, you had members of those gangs crossing over to the other side. Blacks and hispanics forming new, integrated gangs.

And long before that, when the Italian and Jewish mafias were warring for power, you had a lot of Jews in Italian gangs and vice versa.

Gangs lead to strange bedfellows.

Winning the Future

One of the obvious and glaring differences between the 2016 and 2024 Trump Administrations has been in the cabinet. This time around, Trump has some real fighters and loyalists doing critical work for his administration, and who can meaningfully "move the ball down the field" on key objectives. The person most people would probably mention first if asked is Marco Rubio. Sure, he is Secretary of State and doing a tremendous job there, he has also become something of a "minister without portfolio," jumping in wherever he's needed and whipping things into shape while wiping the floor with the opposition. Rubio is a key policymaker and much of what he is doing will pay dividends for years to come.

Looking past Rubio, there are other cabinet standouts. Linda McMahon has been doing meaningful work at Education, working to roll back much of the prior era's disastrous wokification of public education and working to cut some of the supports out from under the ideological sewer that is "higher education." Sean Duffy has been quarterbacking major initiatives around air traffic control and cutting back on Biden-era regulatory nightmares like the "green" highway construction requirements. Chris Wright has been a dynamo at Energy (pun intended, enjoy), clearing the decks for increased atomic power and helping to degrade the war on oil. There are various others doing the work to move the agenda and set the country up for success, but there may be no cabinet secretary who is doing more to secure the future of the Republic than Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.

Hegseth burst into office promising to modernize the armed forces to respond to emerging threats and to refocus their efforts on actual warfighting and preparedness, shifting away from ideological loyalty and cronyism. Much of the woke crap is gone. The double standards in the armed forces for men and women are being rolled back. It's about war, being ready for war, being capable of war. He made a lot of waves in the press last year when he gave his address at Quantico, targeted squarely at senior officers and rank-and-file policy. There was much pearl clutching when he told them that they were expected to be fit, well-groomed and competent and they were expected to focus on the business of war instead of on progressive politics.

He's gotten to work on it, and has had a good year and an especially good month. The biggest press waves came from this year's address at Quantico, mostly because - horror of horrors - he was mean about progressive sacred cows and emphasized that major reduction in force for the top ranks will continue. There was much pearl-clutching because of two particular parts of the speech:

No more social engineering, no more weaponized IG policies. The complainers, the ideologues, and the poor performers are no longer in the driver's seat. No more silly PowerPoint trainings or drag queen shows. No more diversity quotas, no more gender pronouns, no more identity months, only the warrior ethos. And I know you feel it because I've been to your units and met with your troops. It has transformed entire formations as it was intended to do. But it's worth saying again, so that the fake news understands it. We are no longer the woke department or the weak department. Simple translation of that, no fatties, no trannies, no beardos, no weirdos, no wimps, no radicals, just warriors, just tough, ready, committed troops. The war department, as you know, is colorblind, gender-neutral, and merit-based.
You see, the number crunchers say we've fired 10% of the generals and admirals across the force, and that number sounds about right. And I know because I directed it that we've also reduced the overall number of general officer slots by an additional 10%. So yes, 20% reduction across the board. Now the media calls that a purge. I call it accountability and long overdue, and frankly, the bare minimum. As usual, what the media levels as an accusation, I wear as an accomplishment. You see, you can't change a culture with the same people who enabled it. Personnel is policy at every single level.
The first, whatever. It's good, of course, and it consumed most of the column-inches because he called trannies weird. Between that and the "FORTRESS America" announcement, most of the press only briefly mentioned the crucial part of Hegseth purging the higher office ranks, which is itself a follow-on to the huge reforms he implemented in the same area earlier.

A bit before the annual address at Quantico, Hegseth announced a new system for promotions to general or admiral ranks, called the "Joint Warfighter Evaluation." This new scheme will test colonels and captains in war games and simulations to ensure they can effectively manage combat and competently command forces as a condition of promotion. Making general or admiral will no longer be primarily a political game of loyalty and ideological purity, but an exercise in the demonstration of skill and competence. That is a major and important development to help ensure that the next set of flag officers know what they're doing. And that next set is going to be needed and needed soon, as the War Department starts cycling out flag officers installed under the old rules.

For 12 of the past 18 years, Obama and Biden headed the most ideologically ruthless administrations in modern history and had plenty of time to install loyalists throughout the government, and the military was no exception. Hegseth said that the press would call his reductions at the flag level a "purge" and I would call it that, too. Unlike the press, however, I am not criticizing it. While trimming out progressive ideologues from the highest ranks is crucial, Hegeth's work to help secure the military's future by making the promotions process less political and more focused on actual combat and military operations is even more important. Yes, it is a very good thing that the "trannies, beardos, weirdos, wimps and radicals" are being removed and that should not be downplayed, but this year's initiatives are about helping to secure that progress.

The groundwork Hegseth laid last year was more about the lower ranks. Last year's focus on eliminating double standards based on sex or rank, eliminating time-wasting, soul-crushing and nonsensical woke "training," eliminating ideological or identity-based promotions or carve-outs, etc. all help clean up the pipeline and ensure that the boots on the ground and those NCOs and junior officers who keep the gears turning are competent and ready. This year, he's targeting the higher part of the hierarchy, not just through eliminating personnel but through refilling those positions in a better, more reliable, more competent and less political way.

Trump's cabinet has been doing generally good and sometimes exceptional work day in and day out on the important business of winning the present. Of all the secretaries, however, Hegseth may be doing the most to win the future.

17 Bessent writing regulations to choke illegals out of the American financial system will probably have more long term positive effects than Hegseth's laudable efforts to clean up the military.

Yup. I do. I know that I don't hold the same positions today that I did 13 years ago. I've been radicalized by what's happened since then. Hell, I was radicalized watching Trump get shot in the face and seeing the left simultaneously cheer that he was shot and mourn that he survived.

But I also know that many, very well-respected commenters here don't believe he has actually moved on policy because the only billets he's been in since then involve him speaking for Trump, not for himself.

The fear is that should he ever be in a position to speak for himself - say, as President - then his pro-amnesty roots will come out and he'll fuck us.

94 Under that metric, NONE of Trump's Cabinet members can get any credit for anything. They're just speaking for The Boss, after all.

Yeah, I thought about that. Hegseth wrote a book about what was wrong with the military, and how he'd fix it. That's why Trump picked him.

As was noted above, Bessent has more real world financial experience than just about anyone. He knows how the system works (as does Trump, but I suspect that's why Trump picked him).

My point is that people people are praising Rubio for "his" policies, when in fact they're really just saying he's done a good job running State. That's certainly important, and if he really wants to run for President, that executive experience is necessary, but I really have no idea what his policies are now. That's why I'm STILL one of the people who doesn't trust him after the immigration fiasco.

98 Bessent writing regulations to choke illegals out of the American financial system will probably have more long term positive effects than Hegseth's laudable efforts to clean up the military.

-------

His work is laudable.

It will be immediately rolled back.

You can't roll back a military purge. The machine will have to be rebuilt, and it will take a long time.

Like it took before - and now the enemy will be stripped of a loyal officer corps at a time when they really need and want one.

These are officers who were supposed to keep us all in line during the coming storm. They're gone.

The rank and file are also being reformed, by nature of the officer purge itself, and the new standards in place.

Hegseth will leave the regime with an unreliable Army. It's a huge blow to them, perhaps an insurmountable one.

A good start would be to acknowledge that he made an enormous error 13 years ago, including why he now thinks it was an error, and then forcefully and unequivocally reject amnesty in all its forms. That would go some distance with me, but of course it would do short-term damage to his political chances.

GOP donors want cheap labor legal or illegal versus the actual voters for the GOP that don't. So you get some GOP pols that keep raising the issue (seriously or not) to keep donors happy. Cornyn, for example, would sell out Texas voters in a New York minute, like he did for 2A advocates, if he could get a nickel plus 'bipartisan' reach around approval for amnesty. Tillis, likewise.

Chamber of Commerce wants growth at all costs in labor force and demand and does not give one damn about the effects on native Americans and their salaries, safety, or taxes from hordes of legal visa workers and illegals. And that is in part because among our upper corporate class, they view themselves as global citizens, not US and they have more in common with their peers in UK, China, etc. than they do with the people in their own supposed homeland.

The legal infrastructure to get those agreements were in place long before Trump. It took Trump to get the ball rolling, to order it to happen, and Rubio followed orders.

And those third-nation deportations happen because of criminality, not because of preference. The home country refuses them, usually because the deportee has a criminal history (or, it's just Cuba).

So, propping that up is saying that Rubio will deport the worst of the worst, not Maria.

🚨Update: The Army is considering using World War 2 era M1 Garand rifles for the upcoming execution at Fort Hood, Texas. The .30-06 Springfield round (7.62×51mm NATO) is more powerful than the standard US Army M4/16 5.56 rifle round. The Execution Officer will make the final decision soon!

144 I didn't hand Rubio the shovel and tell him to dig himself in with what he thought was the future of the party in 2013 based on the autopsy from 2012 of Romney's campaign.

He took up that shovel of his own volition and shoved that spade in to get every foot he's deep in it.

The opportunism of his 2013 stance is matched by his opportunism of his 2026 stance.

Who's the real Rubio and what will he do when he's not chasing the conventional wisdom and can shape the conventional wisdom on his own?

This is going to the sticking point for Rubio's political future.

It's a shame he did this to himself. I think he'd be great in the big chair, but he's got an awful big hill to climb.

The absolute number one issue for Trump Voters is immigration. The absolute biggest weakness for Rubio is how he is perceived (because of his own actions) by a subset of Trump Voters on immigration.

I've never served, but I've played a lot of Risk™️. The relaxation of military readiness has been concerning to me since at least when, after the fall of the Soviet Union, they started reducing our forces and closing our bases. "What th…!? Didn't anyone notice that big China thing still there?"

As the decades of opposition to the USA by the likes of Iran have demonstrated, we are at war, call it hot, cold, or warm, declared or not, and ought to act like it.

Acknowledging that status by changing the very name of the department from Defense back to War was especially encouraging.

180 I refuse to get involved in the Rubio mischegas. But generally speaking, I don't really care what motivates any politician to do what I want him to do. So long as he does it.

Sure, in a perfect world they would all do what I want them to do because they too want it done.

But fear and self-preservation are some of the best motivators there are. If a politician fears backlash from me and other voters, and is scared into doing what we want him to do, then that's fine by me.

Even true believers can get seduced by donors, media outrage, etc. But politicians scared they'll get punted out by voters? They might be the most reliable votes of all.

Posted by: Bulg at October 07, 2026 12:06 PM (77rzZ)

183
The groundwork Hegseth laid last year was more about the lower ranks. Last year's focus on eliminating double standards based on sex or rank, eliminating time-wasting, soul-crushing and nonsensical woke "training," eliminating ideological or identity-based promotions or carve-outs, etc. all help clean up the pipeline and ensure that the boots on the ground and those NCOs and junior officers who keep the gears turning are competent and ready. This year, he's targeting the higher part of the hierarchy, not just through eliminating personnel but through refilling those positions in a better, more reliable, more competent and less political way.


The one criticism that I have for Hegseth is that he should have started this project with the officer corps rather than the rank and file. Purge the brass and give the troops leaders to look up to, leaders to follow, leaders who will support their Secretary of War when he reforms the lower ranks. That would actually make it easier to reform both cohorts, in my opinion.

Still, despite that mistake he's doing a fantastic job, so I'm good with giving him some slack.

If you can't even get the support of a single Democrat, how are you going to get anything done in a closely divided Senate as its most junior member?

Trust the steal. But also I think they are being somewhat pragmatic. That is why so many of them are ducking debates. They know that an at all fair moderator will end up with them in a fail-fail state. Either they moderate, and piss off the DSA types who might kill them, or they don't moderate and go full fire breathing commie and piss off everyone else.

I remember one of my government teachers in the before times high school era saying that one of the strengths of our system (and this was echoed by Shelby Foote in the civil war series) is that it forced moderation and compromise in order to appeal to the people. Social media and insularity between groups is forcing that system to break down.

They haven't pulled anything, but they've barely responded to the late stage onslaught of ad dollars Republican groups started throwing at the state a few weeks ago.

Like, Schumer gave Talarico $2 million. That gets you late night ads outside of Dallas at this point in the campaign.

The only place where the Hispanic vote matters this year is in Texas.

And it matters less than the fact that the exurban vote in the state is wildly inelastic and will vote 80-20 Republican or so.

195 NC, almost definitely and GA probably.
Posted by: Washington Nearsider

Depends on turnout now. Vote by mail figures do not show a blue wave in Georgia for example and early voting is just starting (in Georgia the early voting is now truncated compared to previous elections so it will not really be a direct 1:1 comparison with past years). NC is a hard state to read and TJM probably knows more about what is going on than I do.

Haven't seen much actual voting stats if any from there and ALL polls now are considered suspect and prediction markets are trash.

We also face the issue of how independents are going to break--most are actually leaners, not true independents and these are the most difficult to reach in polling and also turnout. Doesn't appear that we are getting huge voting numbers that way in the competitive states (ignoring those that primarily vote by mail in the West).

The idea that the state that went Trump+3 was suddenly an easy win for Democrats at the federal, statewide level because Roy Cooper, who left his governorship a couple of years ago in a terrible position because of Helene and his criminal policies, was always ludicrous.

Last time Cooper won statewide election, there were 400,000 more registered Dems than Reps (he won by 250,000 votes). There are now 10,000 more Reps than Dems. And, the propensity to send senators of the "wrong party" by PVI is far less than the propensity for electing senators of the "wrong party" by PVI. Think Hogan in MD or Romney in MA.

He's got name recognition, which is not nothing. But it's far from everything.

Been contacted? GOTV operations will most likely concentrate on those that vote sporadically in midterm or off year elections and the people that is registered but has not voted in recently.

Persuasion is more likely if you are a regular voter.

Ironically, the best result is if you vote in every single election including municipal and school board type elections, primaries, etc. That pretty much marks you as a voter that does not need to be contacted to vote. Aka supervoters. Only about 10 percent or so of voters.

Both parties are awash in cash and spend money in these states every cycle.

It's how politics work, and the "watch where they spend the money" technique is so chock full of false positives (both parties spent a total of $200 million in Texas for the senate race in 2024, and that race didn't end up close at all) that I find it pretty much useless as a barometer.

"Not only do leftists have full control over the state of New York, Tompkins County, and Cornell University, but Republicans and conservatives have no say or sway whatsoever.

Posted by: Tuna

Smart campaigns merely send such voters fliers, etc. Because they are self activating. Waste of money to contact in most cases unless it is an early voting state and they haven't voted yet. Good campaigns from demographics and other background can pretty much figure out voting patterns of someone like the supervoter.

The indys that are sporadic in voting and move around a lot like yutes will usually be the target for GOTV operations.

So far, in states reporting on vote by mail (vbm), the 18-29 year olds are not voting like in previous elections. In Ohio, apparently down to 2014 levels. That is going to hurt democrats more than gop because young voters skew Dem and if they don't turn out by vbm, they are likely not to early vote nor vote on election day. Dem GOTV structure since 2018 at least has been designed to get them to vote by mail.

Posted by: TheJamesMadison

All of campaign analysis is triangulation of data sources and the rise of candidates that are the political version of The Producers! makes using campaign funding naively as the only market as questionable by itself. The most strategic of campaign funding is Senate and House committees that can now explicitly coordinate with candidates of their party and spend on ads on their behalf. The indy dark money cannot as of yet and is limited to the call Senator so and so and tell them ....... So they run mainly negative ads which depresses turnout, particularly yutes and sporadic voters.

The reason why political science though fared better in recent replicability studies on research while sociology and education studies could not be replicated, is that like economics and price, the basis of much of poli sci research is the vote data point to which everything else is attached.

We know campaign funding spent on ads, gotv, candidate appearances, etc. influences the number of votes for a candidate but it is not a one to one relationship.

Dispersal of places receiving the ballots makes it more difficult to tamper--few GOP ballots to discard in cities, harder to tamper in GOP red areas.

Do what Trump wanted for vbm, special envelopes, tracking end to end, etc. and that makes it very dangerous to tamper, not impossible but a lot more perilous than today. And you may or may not know, USPS actually images the front and back of all mail now (stemming from the anthrax attacks year ago) and has pretty accurate tracking even when the mail is just first class mail.

The Morning Report — 10/ 7 /26

Einsatzgroupies.jpg

Good morning kids. Today marks the third anniversary of one of the bloodiest, most barbaric assaults not just on Israel and Jews but on humanity itself. Anyone who doesn't see and understand that or worse who has cheered it on is as evil and twisted as the evil attackers themselves.

Three years have passed since the Hamas massacre of Oct. 7, 2023 — the wholesale murder, rape and torture of more than 1,200 men, women, children and infants in Israel. Yet as Jews everywhere gather to mourn, what should be a day of quiet reflection and prayer, of defiant cries of “Never again,” is being eclipsed by something dark and obscene.

The tragedy of 10/7 has ripped the veil off the antisemitism that has always bubbled below the surface. As the nation of Israel dares to defend itself against an existential threat, the gloves have come off.

Jew hatred is now more than a quiet obsession. It is cool. In Hollywood, Jew hate has emerged from the shadows and become a chic and trendy pastime. World-famous antisemites such as Susan Sarandon, Mark Ruffalo and Javier Bardem don keffiyeh in solidarity with bloodthirsty terrorists. Onstage, musicians Macklemore and Zach Bryan rant about fictional Palestinian “genocide” while snubbing their noses at Jewish agony. . . In Gracie Mansion, the mayor of the city second only to Israel in its concentration of Jews, entertains Holocaust deniers and 10/7 sympathizers, ramping up a record wave of anti-Jewish hate crimes. Instead of protecting all the people of this city, Mayor Zohran Mamdani agitates for the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while surrounding himself with like-minded socialist staffers, advisers and adoring acolytes who share Hizzoner’s disdain and contempt for Jews.
The planet has turned upside-down.

To every sane person out there, yes the planet has turned upside down but considering we are barely a month past the 25th anniversary of 9/11/01, where perhaps we had imagined or deluded ourselves into believing that the world had righted itself when the rubble was removed and the smoke had cleared, and then the London Underground was bombed followed in short order by the attack in Madrid at the Atocha train station.

But of course the Freedom Tower was built, and yet Islam, and its ally of convenience domestic and international socialism continues its bloody rampage across Europe and the world...

The genocide of Nigerian Christians at the hands of Islamic Jihadists continues apace, although you wouldn’t know it from the mainstream media, which is myopically focused on its pet political project, the so-called Palestinian people.The X post... captures the heartbreaking loss of one innocent in particular, a schoolteacher who was a light for his students and community.

In the twisted words of Socialist demi-god numero uno Joe Stalin "The death of one is a tragedy, the death of a million is a statistic, and yet we have the death of one by one by one, sometimes one at a time sometimes dozens or even thousands at a time, and yet and yet and yet...
but then again, we have just passed the 84th anniversary of the wholesale slaughter at the Babi Yar ravine.

As Holocaust memorial institutions gathered on Monday to mark the 84th anniversary of the Babyn Yar massacre, in which Nazis and their collaborators murdered more than 33,000 Jews in a two-day rampage, the names of more than 1,000 previously unidentified victims were read for the first time thanks to new archival documentation.

And while we're speaking of 9/11 and the near insanity of the FlyDubai attempted hijacking and Islamikaze attack on Israel last week, we have this continuing insanity to contend with! Ho-Lee-FOOK are you kidding me?!

United Airlines has removed from service a pilot who called Hamas terrorists behind the October 7 massacre “brave,” pending a review, The Daily Wire can first report. Capt. Ibrahim R. Mossallam was first suspended with pay in November 2023, but Israel’s Channel 14 reported on Monday that United quietly allowed him to return to the cockpit just six months later. United told The Daily Wire on Tuesday that it has pulled the pilot from the skies

“We have withheld this pilot from service pending an ongoing review,” an airline spokesman said.The airline did not confirm whether Mossallam had resumed flying after it began investigating in late 2023.

Switching gears completely, this is something that I'd usually ignore but because my dear sweet wife and sister-in-law were yammering on about it endlessly yesterday evening, I just "can't get it out of my head," with all due deference and apologies to E.L.O...

California Democrats just hit a damning new low, bewailing how President Donald Trump supposedly invited Iran to nuke Los Angeles and San Diego. 

As LA Mayor Karen Bass and others chimed in, Gov. Gavin Newsom posted: “The President is advocating for an attack on 10+ million U.S. residents in two of America’s largest cities.”

He added: “This is not normal. None of this is” — when in fact it’s an all too normal case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. 

From Dems’ accounts, you’d guess Trump had at least made some tasteless joke; after all, he did just give out a GOP senator’s personal cell number just because the guy won’t agree to end Daylight Savings Time.

But no; it’s a straight-up smear. Here’s what Trump said at Monday night’s Nebraska rally: “You want to see a tremendous victory [in Iran], because it verifies all the things we did. And again, remember, with the word, [the gas price rise] is just artificial, it’s a little bit high. “It’s a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe. They can take out a city. Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. That’s — this is a very small price to pay, and it’s gonna be over with very soon.”

Sloppy, sure; Trump was riffing on the stump. But no way was he inviting Iran to attack those cities, nor even joking about it. 

He was arguing that the temporary spike in gas prices is a very small price to pay, compared to the terrible cost of Iran going nuclear and destroying an American city.

No, it wasn't sloppy at all. Anyone with more than Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants' two barely firing synapses, if that many, not only knows what the President said and in what context but understands that an Iranian nuclear warhead is an existential threat that must be neutralized. In no way did he cheer on or call for Iran to nuke San Diego or LA, though given who and what is running California and far too many other places in America and what they have planned for the rest of the nation should they gain control of the Federal government, and if they have their way never relinquish that control, the jokers twisting President Trump's words actually make the case.

And now let the trolls accuse me of calling for Iran to nuke America! Meh, why am I getting so exercised. It's puerile, infantile, amateurish and typical of the Trump-deranged Left, and yet too many seemingly intelligent people swallow this crap whole without even a mildly critical second thought.

Oh well, it is what it is. So Basta cosi and God bless the memory of all those slaughtered by Islam and protect us from their evil and that of their allies of convenience on the Left who seek our destruction so they can serve Satan by destroying and enslaving us. On these and all the other cheery news of the day, I nevertheless bid you all to

have a good day.

That’s — this is a very small price to pay, and it’s gonna be over with very soon.” Sloppy, sure; Trump was riffing on the stump. But no way was he inviting Iran to attack those cities, nor even joking about it. He was arguing that the temporary spike in gas prices is a very small price to pay, compared to the terrible cost of Iran going nuclear and destroying an American city.
    Trump Derangement: No, he didn’t ask Iran to attack LA or San Diego

The UK. *Sigh* There is a path, but it may be too far gone. Their armed forces are insufficient to win.

Apparently the DoW felt the Iranians had a plan in place to use drones, smuggled into the UK to hit the USAF aircraft (B-1's and other) based at RAF Fairford. Those bombers fueled up and left before their tanker support was airborne.

Those aircraft won't be returning to the UK anytime soon.

England, what's left of it, isn't trustworthy enough for the USAF to base aircraft there anymore.

Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as bad luck."

Why do black mothers sacrifice their sons and daughters to the hood?
Why do white voters vote in mass for Mamdani, Johnson, Bass, et al?
Why is every major city in the US a complete failure in crime, education, and business?

Many black and white people think that only a black mayor, or chief of police, or school superintendent can "HELP" black people and communities.
It is an US vs. THEM socialist mentality that is baked into almost every decision at the city and county and school district.

She asked her parents to call Tomer, her twin brother, and Maya, her little sister, and said:

“I’m going to die. I just want you to listen to me.

I love you, Yariv. You’re the best father I could have asked for.

Mom, stop screaming. Just listen to me. You are the best mother we could have ever had. Don’t forget to be a good mother to Tomer and Maya after I die.

58 The fact that Obama is willing to campaign with the radioactive El-Sayed illustrates the fact that there is no division between moderate Democrats and far-left Democrats. They are all far-left. The only division in the Democratic Party is between those who think that their constituencies are far enough left that they can come out as socialists–Communists by the ballot–and those who think that the American people are not yet “ready” for socialism/Communism, so progress toward that goal should be more gradual.

Erdogan is always a problem. But the base at Incirklik allows the US to maintain close surveillance over a large portion of Russia’s southern border, as well as Syria, Iraq, and northern Iran. Incirclik is arguably the single most strategically important NATO affiliated base which the US has, with the possible exception of Keflavik.

In case anyone wonders why we keep it, and why we work to maintain good relations with Erdogan.

88 As near as I can figure out, Jane Ho at Cornell's legal theory boils down to this:

1) She banged them all under the assumption that she'd become a valued member of the community.
2) She not only didn't become a valued member of the community, she was actively disinvited from future parties.
3) She provided the pro quo, then they didn't provide the quid. Therefore, she was raped. Same thing as eating at an IHOP, then ducking out the side door without paying the bill.


I predict that this is going to be quietly dropped as soon as it becomes widely known that most (all?) of the boys who enjoyed her putative charms are of the melanin-rich segment of society.

They've inadvertantly done this in Chicago.

They HAD ShotSpotter technology, which would triangulate the location of gunfire. Then they could roll police and an ambulance even if nobody called it in. Lives were saved.

But it was always happening in black neighborhoods, so Mayor Johnson (D) cancelled ShotSpotter. Racist, you see. Now it can be a solid half hour until the ambulance comes to collect your body.

In a sane world, the republican senatorial candidates in TX IA OH AK MI KS ME all win… this would turn into a push in the senate: republicans maintain their 53-47 edge. But are we now in a sane climate?? I’m not completely sure… my best guess: Republicans keep the senate at 53-47 and narrowly lose the house.

At this point I’d take that outcome. And given the polls it would cause the Dems to howl and be greatly discouraged

123 We don't have Waffle House here, but near as I can figure, it's akin to a local chain called "Flipper's" that existed here back in during the Pipeline Boom. The bars open 23 hours a day, where you had to wade through a pack of whores to just to get in the door. Oilfield roughnecks and construction workers hitting town after weeks on the North Slope with gigantic paychecks.

You know the reputation sailors on shore leave have? Now imagine if those sailors had 5x or 10x as much money to spend.

The cops mostly looked the other way unless someone was actively being shot.

So, yeah, Flipper's tended to be a bit boisterous if you went in there for chow at 0400 after a night out drinking.

If it wasn’t at least somewhat competitive the money would not be spent for these ads. Republicans will still win probably. But it’s money that could be spent elsewhere and is a good indication of how things look in purple states.

If there is video of her fully passed out and someone having sex with her, that will be the criminal charge, with anyone egging the guy on also prosecuted as an accessory. B/c while you can consent while conscious, you cannot continue to consent unconscious.

I have no idea what's on any videos or what any admittances of the gentlement are (she wouldn't know, b/c she would be unconscious). But it's not impossible b/c there are reports everyone was passing out. So, that is the sole place I could see the gentlemen facing charges - if someone admitted to that, or someone videoed or witnessed that.

The DA has announced that even though her statement from 2024 showed no crime, his office is catching so much flack that he's taking the matter to a grand jury. Given that this will be in Ithaca, there's a good chance of an indictment. Then they'll run a trial which the government SHOULD lose.

IIRC, the main instigator is a foreign student from Dubai who has now gone home (fled the country).

What's interesting is that Cornell has hired Sally Yates, formerly of DoJ and a key part of the Russia collusion op. She a bigtime DC Democrat lawfare insider, which would seem to indicate the Cornell "gang rape" story is a key political operation.

That's where I worked! After Wometco shut down, we began carrying the Home Shopping Club in 1987 on channel 68. That lasted until 2001 when the entire network was purchased by Univision. We shut the Newark facility down and consolidated al operations with WXTX-41 in Teaneck. Our transmitters were on the same floor at Empire, so the logistics made sense. The call letters of 68 are now WFUV. I retired from WXTV engineering late 2019. I still miss the old 68 building and Floyd. Sadly, both now are gone.

Democrats have completely abandoned women to the tranny and islamic menaces. And to toxic masculinity in general which now Democrats suddenly think is cool.

So now they just treat them like they treat blacks. Bring up some big case filled with lies like this every few years, make it huge, and suddenly they're on women's side again, because who else will be.

This is one of the ways they keep their constituent groups on the plantation. Wild when you see it.

This is a very good question. I think the administration lacks the ability to see right from wrong, or at least to call evil by it's name, and regard every issue as a PR problem. Kicking students out for behavior, as opposed to poor academic performance (for which you used to easily get booted), is not going to happen. Every mental illness is indulged.

Non whites do vote as a bloc for their own. Every single group does this. Black, Hispanic, Jewish, Asian, muzzie, you name it. They vote for their own who then gives them shit they want, including even more immigration of their own. Which increases their power to vote in more of their own. It’s a nice circle.

Whites are the only people who don’t do that. So who’s really retarded?

No, JJ, is WAS sloppy; a poor segue from Kamala and the election. Here's from just before the "tremendous victory" part of the speech:

...Did you hear her the other day, Kamala? She said, "We have to make the election too big to rig." Oh, no. She stole my line. She got killed even by the Democrats on that one. Make it too, can you imagine Kamala? She's about two years late. She said, "We have to --" Did you hear that? She said, "We have to make the election too big to rig." I said, "I can't believe she --" She stole my line.She stole a lot of things that didn't work out too well. But I want, I wanna see, I wanna see a tremendous victory. You wanna see a tremendous victory, because it verifies all the things we did. And again, remember, with the word, it's just artificial, it's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe...

Most people don't really know if they pass out for a time when they are drunk or high enough...nor do they remember everything...so it's video and other witness testimony that would matter...

It's good to ensure that didn't happen b/c society does not want barely drunk men taking advantage of women on the verge of passing out at bars or parties...even if the women themselves are the reason for their intoxication...

There is a taxpayer funded charter school for Muslims in Columbus, Ohio. On camera they are teaching students that non-Muslims go to hell and their purpose is to spread Islam in America

You’re not going to believe this, taxpayers are paying $10,435,836 PER YEAR for this school to operate

The school is called Focus Learning Academy of Northern Columbus in Columbus, it’s a public K–8 charter

Funding reported from the school’s Ohio Auditor of State report:

- Total revenue: $9,972,915
- State foundation basic aid: $7,654,007
- Federal and state grants: $2,268,249
- Other operating revenue: about $50,659
- Total expenses: $10,435,836

That is roughly $16,000 per student

Get this, The academic page lists full-time Arabic language instruction for grades K–8

An estimated 98% of the students are Muslims. The students are described as ‘overwhelmingly Somali’

WE ARE PAYING FOR THIS

Posted by: Biff Pocoroba at October 07, 2026 09:24 AM (JzUSu)/i]


There's an Amish woman in Kentucky that makes moonshine and sells it. She Ph tests the natural spring on her property daily. She won't sell if it's under 120 proof.

Yeti Tumbler.
Ice.
Pour it in the tumbler and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Sip and enjoy.

Amazing how good it is.

She was able to list, by name, every guy who showed up where she was, when they arrived, what they did, or didn't do, and when they left. She also, despite her lawsuit saying that she wanted to leave but was trapped by all these hulking men (if you've seen a photo of her you'll understand why that's a laugh) and her phone was across the room was able to respond to a text from her roommate within a few seconds.

She continued to text the guy for a couple weeks afterwards, stating that everything was consensual, and she'd like to get together again - although preferably with only him - right up until she was told that she could not attend their Halloween party. One week later she went to the police and made her rape accusation.

322 Watching the left, anything, literally anything is ok for "oppressed" people to do.

So Oct 7 didn't target Israeli military, government or police and wasn't allowed in any way by "the rules of war". But that's ok. The Palis are "oppressed" even though they were under their own government at the time.

But any response by Israel that might resolve the issue is bad and evil. The left argues Israel had some nominal right to respond but only if no civilians were harmed in any way and you can't respond to acts of war with...war. And the left will say things like, "Well right after Oct 7 Israel had the world's sympathy but they through it away with their actions"

328 There is nothing good for your body in alcohol. In fact it depresses your immune system. Like seed oils, it also cause inflammation. If you read most of the studies you will also find that findings to the opposite are only achieved through bias, poor sampling or a fundamental lack of properly screening the sample population for other factors. Genetic profiling and AI are making the ability to account for all factors in a sample population achievable. Until you read the actual results, don’t believe it. I’ve talked to some of the best cancer doctors and researchers on the planet. One thing that encourages the disease is inflammation. The type of inflammation that can only come from the wrong foods and drinks. That doesn’t mean you have to be 100%. But it does mean the bulk of your everyday diet should exclude inflammatory foods and sugary drinks. YMMV.

If she was severely dehydrated, veins collapse easily. If the veins are already small, it makes things harder. When I was in the hospital (granted they weren't trying to kill me...maybe), they had a hell of a time with my veins, eventually poking the back of my hands...I would, after a day or two, have infiltration of the IV and they would have to look for another vein. If it was unpleasant for them, it was more-so for me.

That being said, given she was going to die, they could've gone big and gone for a vein in her neck.

335 Good Morning. Thanks, J.J.

God bless the memory of all those slaughtered by Islam. 🙏 Grant protection from such evil & destruction as they serve Satan.

From above, "...but then again, we have just passed the 84th anniversary of the wholesale slaughter at the Babi Yar ravine."

Reportedly, roughly 300 local Ukrainian auxiliary policemen in Kyiv assisted the Germans by rounding up victims of the two-day slaughter, guarding the perimeter, and helping manage the logistics of the September 1941 massacre.

Further, Stepan Bandera and his OUN-B originally collaborated with Nazi Germany ahead of the 1941 invasion of the Soviet Union. Reportedly, Bandera believed that aligning with Adolf Hitler was a transactional strategy to secure an independent, nationalist Ukrainian state.

Although Bandera was locked away in a German concentration camp during the height of the war for proclaiming restoration of Ukrainian statehood in Lviv, his followers in the OUN-B and its military wing—the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA)—participated in mass killings of Jewish civilians and the ethnic cleansing of Poles in Volhynia. (March 1943 to early 1945, with massacres peaking in July and August 1943.)

Collins: You served in Augusta for more than 20 years and were President of the Senate. In that time, more than 1/3 of your bills were unanimously voted down in committee.

Now, suicidal empathy is enslaving it, along with much of the West. Ora et labora.

Costs are never dropping until some kind of collapse happens. The media company's, cable-satellite-streaming-whatever, are not lowering there costs. Mainly because networks, especially sports networks, won't. NFL is driving it mostly, but they will increase the costs to show games until the ratings start dropping. It's happening in college football. Not quickly, but it's slowly happening. The cost of games are too high and that gets passed to the consumer.

33 I'm sure the federal government will not step in to help the consumers. So look for higher cable TV rates. The more programing sucks the higher the bills. Makes no sense. Why we can't pick the channels we want and dump the rest I don't know unless it would probably LOWER our bills.

I dreamed I was getting ready to retire from a job at my old employer, in part because there were rats in the building.

In my dream this building looked more like my high school.

45 I dumped cable not long after I got my modern TV in 2020. There were far more channels available through streaming, and esp. over the air, than I could ever watch; there was no point to paying for *both* cable and Internet.

Cox, the long time monopoly here, has become Spectrum. I'm waiting for my bill, already too high, to go up. When I does I'm thinking I'll jump ship to Starlink. Right now its monthly bill is 50% of what I pay now.

I don't know the background on this, at all, but it seems affected to describe a 2-1 vote as being along party lines. If a vote were, say, 112-47 along the party lines of two parties, ok, that would be worth remarking on the party-line-ness of it. It's gonna get just, like, tedious to categorize the votes of 3 persons, again and again, as along party lines or not.

I'm curious. College ball has always kind of been a feeder league for the NFL (i mean, at least until you go back to when they played the game in black and white).

If people are caring less about the NFL lately because they've been shredding their brand for years, it stands to reason they'd care less about college ball, too. I'm sure that's not all of it, but it's part of it.

My hunch is that the AI bubble will slowly deflate, rather than pop, and all the data centers built in this craze will remain but change purpose.

AI will settle in as a useful and ubiquitous tool but not the World Of Tomorrow nonsensical fad it is now, and it will still need data factories to back it up.

Non-AI distributed compute tasks will also continue to grow and embed themselves further into the fabric of our economy, and probably at some point at a faster pace than AI. People want their "free" email, "free" photo storage, etc etc. Same as before, but more and more people will expect more and more storage and processing.

As a manufactured body, a homunculus does not have a normal human lifespan. On the one hand, they may be ageless; but on the other, they may suddenly start to decay or even dissolve.

174 “Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man.

“Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people.

“Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

“This is known as 'bad luck'.”

The pitch is that they are up against a ten million dollar AI campaign of lies, and can you just spare five dollars? No mention of Trump, or any other issue really. Just a mention of "taking back the Senate".

91 I have 7 grandchildren now, my son and DIL have five kids. The last 3 were fosters, now adopted. Everyone looks Nordic or Irish except the youngest. He looks like a 4 year old Gary Coleman. They had fostered him since he came out of the NICU, and the adoption went through less than a year ago. We always vacation together, along with my daughter, SIL and their two boys. Two years ago, very early in the AM some of us were sitting at the table, the littlest guy next to me, kinda groggy picking at some cereal. When my son came down the stairs, he lit up like as though Santa Claus came to visit. He was instantly awake, happy and glowing that Dad was up. It was very cute. Loved the Dad's home video, Doof.

101 Hey, y'all. Great ONT tonight Mr. Doof.

I LOVED the babies greeting their Dada's! I love babies and always have.

We are 10min from our gorgeous grands and they've known us/spent time with us since birth. This is their second home.

When our 1yr old hears/sees us she crawls as fast as she can to me, like a puppy, for months. I'm sure my smile matches hers. Can walk a few steps but crawls faster.

I noticed with all 3 of them when we arrive at their house, and they can hear but not see us as babies in high chairs, they cry til we assure them we know they are there and hello. How could we forget them?

I didn't realize until they were born that there is no level or degree of difference in the love we have for them and our sons. They are simply ours as well. Certainly pieces of my heart running around with them.

Thanks again for the music and videos.

Have a great night!

Only some are this blessed, nurse.

We are incredibly lucky to live in the foothills...1mi from a rocky mountain range. Heaven. Thankful every morning for us ending up where we started 50yrs ago this month when we met.

We lived 1/4mi from the Atlantic and 1/4mi from the Intercoastal Waterway in FL for 20 years in a house we built and raised teens. Loved that, too. I miss the pool, not hurricanes, humidiy, snakes, gators or bugs. It was grand and our boys grew up from infancy on the beach.

Growing up we had 100 acres of forest from my bedroom window.

College years not so blessed with apts, but, man, did I have fun! Impoverished and still having fun. Seeing one roommate next week for lunch! Life is very good.

Happy Birthday again. Looks like Doof celebrated!

167 CT State Rep update:

I had my debate with the far-left incumbent earlier tonight. I thought I did horribly, but I'm my own worst critic. The reviews I received from folks in the audience was completely different.

Weston CT is affluent, and very liberal, but I made my main argument more about shifting the tax burden from the town to the state, and it went over very well with that crowd. Turns out the state gets away with saying they don't raise State taxes by pushing their unfunded mandates onto our property taxes instead. Been going on for years, but our current Rep just makes excuses for it. Not as popular as she thinks it is.

Still an uphill slog, but a sprint to Election Day. We may have a shot after all. People are saying that she should never have agreed to a debate. We'll see.

My asshole mailman shoved a carburetor for a harley into the mailbox, which is across the street and down a little with my neighbor's box, instead of just putting it on the porch. It said it was delivered. I'm thinking great, because one time the asshole laid the package at the base of the mailbox in the dirt where anybody could have just snatched it. I run out to the mailbox, which is 200 feet from my door, and I don't see it on the ground. Well, it was in the mailbox, and he crushed the box it was delivered in so he could press fit the whole thing into the mailbox. One time he must have left the door of the mailbox open and probably caught it with his geek jeep when he drove away, because it was torn off and laying in the dirt. When I first moved there I asked him one time why all the mailboxes are across the street. He says "so they don't have to drive up and down the street." You know what he does when he gets to my house, the last house on his route? He does a K turn in my neighbor's driveway across the street and then heads back down the street from where he came. They blow too much to suk

Water on the Pacific beaches of the US west coast is cold. The Japanese Current is clockwise, bringing warm water up.from the tropics past Japan, keeping their islands warmer than they would otherwise be, then circling through the Arctic, bring cold water down along WA, OR, and CA. Even as far south as Long Beach, the water is cooler than you would expect. The only beaches I ever felt had comfortable water were south of Pendleton.

244 I have several shells I collected at Alki Beach when I was a small person, probably about 60 years ago. I keep them in a little display cabinet on my desk, because they remind me of a wonderful trip to Seattle when I was young, and because they are really cool. Going to the beach was free, so I expect my cheapskate parents encouraged it, but as a 6 year old, it was totally cool. Back then, Seattle was mostly just an extension of Alaska anyway. If you went anywhere, you went through Seattle.

AOC paid pro-Palestinian activist who fundraised for camps with terrorism ties while wearing periwinkle Remain Sinwar camisole and FreeGaza hotpants -- because they didn't fit Boebert.

According to her FEC disclosures, she gave $375 to Naurin Islam, the deputy director of Sapna NYC, in early June.

Islam had previously engaged in online pro-Palestinian activism and fundraising efforts directed toward refugee camps, and that these specific camps or regions have been viewed by Israeli or security authorities as having militant or Hamas strongholds.

She finally decided screw this, and went to the airport to put it on the commuter flight directly, so that it could make it to Kenai and not get lost.

Somewhere, there is a shitload of old mail from Anchorage to Kenai, and no reason at all why it didn't arrive.

Some people crush other people's heads. Other people use their forced-perspective hands more constructively.

Holy crap this woman runs her mouth, amirite

Baby and cat bond over a mutual love affair with napping.

In a historic first, dogs and mailmen end previous hostilities and agree to "a new spirit of amity and cooperation."

You (the dumb one): Giant moth larvae are so cute!

Me (the smart one): No they're not, they're weird and gross you dum-dum.

Light show at a Prague church.

A giant lantern in Sri Lanka. Standard Reference Humans have been inserted for scale at 0:30.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Rescuing an injured jaguar drowning in a lake.

Rescuing a baby elephant trapped in deep mud. I think at the end he is reunited with his mother, who has been tranquilized so she doesn't freak out and go Mrs. Dumbo on the rescuers.


Mini pony is stuck at the edge of a giant precipice.

If you act like your belong there and walk with purpose, you can get past any security.

Bringing food for a stray mama dog's puppies.

But is it art?

Owl couple care for their eggs.

A little forced perspective turns this into a real Movie Poster shot. Scan through all three photos to see how they posed this and what it turned into:

The thing about her "damn emails" was not only recklessly illegal and worth 20+ years in a Federal prison...it was a *stupid* move on her part because it opened her (what she viewed, incorrectly, as) "private world" to any third-rate hack with computer skills.

B) Do you even think that's *their* goal? They already have all the benefits of citizenship, with none of the drawbacks. All the rights, none of the responsibilities. Who in hell is here, in the flesh, illegally, who dearly wishes they could only give away half their paycheck before they even get it, and then give away the other half to pay for all the taxes on their house and their car and their dog and their own damn head, just to get told to fuck off when they go to the hospital with their "Actual" "Insurance" that covers literally nothing anymore?

Penguins often use this technique.

Not sure what that was. A meteor will have a smoke trail and, yes, be faster than that. A flare won't make that big of a wave (too light by the time it returns to the surface). That looked more like a Roman Candle type firework that was shot off and ignited upon return.

84 They literally don't understand what cathartic bitching is.

Of course no one *actually* wants to see an American city nuked, you useless dildos. We're laughing at the idea because those cities fucking suck and are full of dickheads like you, making life worse for everyone on Earth every single day.

But you assgoblins can't even fathom the concept of that kind of hyperbolic bitching, which means all the horrid rotten shit you *do* say every day all day is you truly and honestly wishing death and violence upon your imagined Enemies. Because you're a bunch of sick broken useless fucks.

We jeer at the idea of a city being nuked.

You cheer at the reality of a husband and father getting murdered in broad daylight. At women getting raped and abducted, babies being broken and murdered, for the crime of going to a music festival while being Of Tribe. At men getting railroaded for crimes they didn't commit because Vulva. At women going free after brutally murdering their own children because A Guy You Don't Like Is President For A Bit.

126 It doesn't make any sense to read into that statement that he thinks Iran nuking a US city is "a very small price to pay". How is that a price? What do we get in exchange? What would even be the argument he's making if that's what he meant by that?

It's a willfully malicious misreading of a plain, obvious statement.

During Gulf War 1, I was returning to my post in Greece from a gulf country, and got diverted to Cairo. They were not expecting a diplomat, and apparently had a panic attack. They assigned me an armed guard who followed me everywhere, including the bathroom. I did not care for that, but since it was an automatic he was carrying, and I didn't know how trigger happy he was, I didn't make a fuss. They put me on the next plane to Greece, which was an east african carrier complete with goats, chickens and open bunsen burners. I haven't much cared for flying since then.

148 Some of you guys are making something out of nothing.

Anyone who watches the video knows Trump was being sarcastic as he always does at his rallies. It's worked pretty damn well for him this far, he won the presidency 2, ok 3 times, while having the entire media against him and taking a bullet to the head.

He didn't say anything wrong. He was simply pointing out that people who have been saying he shouldn't have taken down the terrorists running Iran who have been threatening to take down The Great Satan for years were wrong because the mullahs meant what they said and that's why taking them down was necessary.

Don't help leftists by pretending they aren't lying. Punch back harder.

149 Trump is campaigning for eight senate seats. He is working his ass off day and night dealing with Iran and the other middle eastern fools. If you watched ace's link on Ecuador you know that we have boots on the ground throughout South America waging war against the Cartels - pushing them North.

Meanwhile he's campaigning every day for an eight senator win because we all know that the next president won't be Trump and he will need all the help he can get.

Man Sexually Assaults Women in a Planet Fitness Bathroom Even Though I Was Assured This Never Happens

What they really mean is what some of them admit about little girls being forced to look at adult male perverts' dicks in changing rooms: Little girls will just have to get over their discomfort at viewing a penis.

And as far as women being brutalized or raped by men in women's bathrooms: You're just gonna have to suck it up, Karen.


A man was arrested Thursday morning after police in Cambridge, Massachusetts, said he went into the women's locker room at a Planet Fitness in Porter Square and sexually assaulted people inside.

Police responded to an emergency call at the Massachusetts Avenue gym, just after 9 a.m. Thursday. According to Cambridge police, the suspect, later identified as Laquan Holland, was arrested at the scene. One victim was taken to a hospital for evaluation.

He does not "appear trans," and by "appear trans," of course I mean "looking obviously like a man attempting a grim parody of womanhood."

He just seems like the typical street hood rapist.

But of course, "trans" people aren't required to do anything to prove their Special Privileged Status, so maybe he is "trans," as he defines it.

At any rate, he had every right to be in those bathrooms, decided Planet Fitness.


The incident left frequent gym-goers shaken. "I've always felt safe. Now that I've heard that this had happened, I'll definitely have to look behind my back," said Dr. Yena Do, who works out frequently at the gym. "Which is not a great feeling. I'm going there to work out, undressing out of my scrubs and get into my workout clothes. I'm definitely going to think about that."

The Planet Fitness is located on the bottom floor of Lesley University's University Hall, a multi-use building that includes several private businesses accessible by the public.

Lesley University student Sophia Holloway said everyone should be able to feel safe in all public spaces.

"It's horrible. I feel like it's a big tragedy. Everyone should be able to feel safe and secure wherever they are. Women out here face such hardships, and I think that the world needs to know that it's not OK," Holloway said.

...

Planet Fitness said the franchise group canceled Holland's membership following the incident.

Oh, you cancel rapist's memberships after attempted rapes? Awesome. That fixes everything, Planet Fitness.

And of course we know that "trans women" never attack and kill actual women.

Except for all the times they do.

A troubled one-time Marine recruit who was transitioning to live as a trans woman has admitted to stabbing a hiker to death -- having told cops she was "what I would want to look like."

Zion Teasley, 25, pleaded guilty to murdering beauty technician Lauren Heike, 29, in a deal that took the death penalty off the table.

Of course. The woke left won't allow women to be executed, so of course they won't allow "trans women" to be executed, either. Trans women are women, bigots.

<

The felon, who had left the Marines just months after going through bootcamp, will instead spend the rest of his life in prison for killing the hiker, who was found dead by neighbors at the foot of a barbed wire fence with 15 stab wounds off a Phoenix trail in 2023.

Before the murder, Teasley wrote in his diary that he was "battling with my gender identity and sexuality," which he believed was conflicting with his Christian faith, according to a 400-page police report on the killing obtained by ABC 15 last year.

"I want to live a life of serving god, but how can I with these and other sins in the way," wrote the killer, whose attorney called "she" in court.

"[I know] I am forgiven for my sins, but it's still a lot of pressure and it's hard to maintain a good Christian mindset 24/7."

He said he was depressed by seeing "beautiful" women because he was stuck being "a man."

Let's keep encouraging and amplifying the delusions of the mentally ill and keep telling them that they can be Real Women, accepted as such and courted by heterosexual men, if they just remain militant enough about their "rights" and go through enough expensive, body-destroying, sanity-shredding surgeries.

18 How does this work.

The Cornell story says that women should never have fear of men, and should not have to think twice before putting themselves in compromising position. IE, men are always a threat and that needs to change. Women have no agency, donctcha know.

And these stories say that women should accept compromising and threatening situations for some reason. Because men are never a threat if they are "gender confused" and women now have all the agency but are forbidden from exercising it.

27 I'm sorry, but the whole modern concept that being Christian means you are forgiven for ANYTHING you do, even without repentance or trying to fix the issue... is crap.

And has taken the very idea of Divine Retribution for sinning, right out of the cultural mindset.

Used to be there were two avenues for Justice... The Law... and God... in the Old Testament Divine Retribution, even when you really did not do anything wrong, was a real concept.

This person probably believes that even though they deny the very sex God gave them, AND murdered someone... that they will somehow get a pass into Heaven.

Then, everything is a crime. Unless you're "Palestinian", because "that's your culture and we respect your culture".

The hell? People? If there was more than one woman in the locker room how did he not end up KO'd with a dumbbell or garroted or something while messing with first victim.

Unless the assaulting was just grabbing a couple of boobs and moving on. That is very upsetting as a victim, he deserves criminal record and all that; and it underscores why idiot corporations should allow men to enter women's locker rooms or bathrooms if they "identify as trans".

My current mental model has Islam and Cultural Marxism as different scam-patter 'skins' over similar 'skeletons' of systems of control, so the Apex Grifters will have no issue with just exchanging one skin for another. The question is which direction, and the answer is toward Islam.

They're both nihilistic, but Cultural Marxism is the weaker type. The Frankfurt School created Critical Theory to turn academics' brains to mush, but the epistemic nihilism lends itself to diffidence. The ontological nihilism of Inshallah -- less like "God willing and the Creek don't rise," and more like Exhaustive Determinism -- takes away their agency, but not their certainty. The victor of the two skins is practically predestined.

Trump: The riots in France aren't about school "resources." It's about an invasion by a hostile force under the cover of "seeking asylum."

"What's happening in France is nothing less than out of control mass migration. This isn't about schools, this is about Islam wanting to take over a once great Country!" he posted on Truth Social.

Speaking of an invasion by implacably-hostile foreign actors, Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed.


Abdul El-Sayed, the Democrat nominee for U.S. Senate in Michigan, drew skepticism from voters in his own party during a pair of MS NOW focus groups this week.

It marks a glaring warning sign for the far-left candidate who polls indicate has allegedly been running neck-and-neck with his Republican opponent, Mike Rogers.

In one session, black voters said he was taking their support for granted. A woman in that group said she planned to mark uncommitted rather than vote for him.

"I think he's taking advantage [of] we as Black people are Democratic, and he thinks we gonna vote for him anyway," one woman explained. "And I'm like, 'No sir, I'm gonna put uncommitted down on that little circle and move on.' If you're going to Congress to represent me, I need you to talk about what's going on in this community."

Another participant said El-Sayed had "missed opportunities" to explain himself to black voters.

A separate group of committed Michigan Democrats focused on his comments about Israel. They said they wanted a clear statement that he supports Israel and the Jewish people, and questioned whether they would even believe it if he offered one now.

MS NOW contributor Elise Jordan prefaced the conversation by pointing out, "You're committed Democrats. All of you. You want to vote for the Democratic candidate. But you just can't."

Video below the fold.


And speaking more of implacably hostile foreign invaders: Mamdani's "wife" spent the weekend at an Islamic "wellness retreat" run by terrorist supporters.

Eat, pray, bomb.

New York City's first lady is currently wrapping up a week as an "artist-in-residence" at a luxury Islamic wellness retreat that has called for the destruction of Israel and openly celebrated Palestinian terrorism, the Washington Free Beacon can reveal.

While Rama Duwaji went from the river to the spa, her husband rolled out his own "strategy to combat antisemitism"--a move widely panned by Jewish New Yorkers.
(@placethedot/Instagram)

Duwaji's attendance at the spiritual wellness gathering in Porto, Portugal was previously reported by the New York Post, but the extremism of the group had not been previously known.

The retreat, known as the Women Sanctuary, is currently in its second session of the month at an 18th-century Portuguese castle that's now a high-end hotel and event space. The listed price for five nights in a private, single room at the Women's Sanctuary is $5,216.

Duwaji, who calls herself "a Syrian illustrator and animator" even though she was born in Houston, is believed to be doing Arabic calligraphy at the retreat. She is currently featured on the Women Sanctuary website as a member of the team, bizarrely under the fake name "Karl Holland."

France finally starts to begin to get slightly serious about deporting foreign Islamist terrorists.

The French Interior Ministry has vastly expanded the use of decrees stripping citizenship from convicted Islamist terrorists, with over five times the number of orders reportedly being logged over the past three years than the 30 years before.

According to figures obtained by French paper of record Le Figaro, over 70 decrees revoking citizenship from convicted terrorists have been issued by the Ministry of Interior, and around 100 have been handed down since 2015. This compares with just 13 during the entire period between 1979 and 2015. The paper reported that 15 have been issued so far this year, while 19 were issued in 2025, 37 in 2024, and 12 in 2023.

A senior official at the Hotel de Beauvau told the paper that there are "several hundred" more cases that are set to be dealt with over the next five years as convicted terrorists are released from prison. The Interior Ministry source said that around 45 per cent of those stripped of their citizenship have been French-Moroccan dual nationals, followed by French-Algerians, French-Tunisians, and French-Turks, all of whom represent around 10 per cent of cases.

So I guess that previously they deemed these Aspiring Doctors and Engineers valuable members of the state.

Trash nation of communist pedophiles Canada falls far behind the US in living standards as it rushes to join the Third World proper.

Obviously, Canada's relationship with the United States has deteriorated substantially since President Trump launched his tariff war and created real economic pain for Canadians. But our new study reveals more bad news, as Canada's economy has fallen further behind the U.S. during the first quarter of the 21st century (long before Trump's tariffs).

In fact, across every measure -- including incomes, investment, employment, etc. -- the U.S. clearly outperformed Canada.

But perhaps the most eye-opening statistic is the growing gap in living standards. In 1999, Canada's GDP per-person (an indicator of living standards) was $48,076 (all figures are inflation-adjusted in Canadian dollars) compared to $58,842 in the U.S. -- meaning by this measure, living standards in the U.S. were $10,766 higher than in Canada. And the economic fortunes of the two neighbours have since further diverged, considerably.

From 1999 to 2024, per-person GDP in Canada grew by 23.8 per cent to $59,529 compared to a 41.5 per cent increase (to $83,286) in the U.S. Put differently, living standards in the U.S. grew 1.7 times faster than in Canada. And the gap in living standards (again, as measured by per-person GDP) has more than doubled -- from $10,766 to $23,757 over the 25-year period.

Canadian incomes are also falling behind. From 2010 (the earliest year of comparable data) to 2024, the median employment income (median means half of workers earn more, half earn less) in Canada increased by 14.7 per cent, from $32,580 to $37,361, compared to 18.9 per cent in the U.S., from $38,706 to $46,024. Put differently, in 2024 the typical Canadian worker earned $8,633 less than the typical American worker.


DOJ brings a complaint against Minnesota lawless judges leaking to the NYT about how much they hate border enforcement.


The Department of Justice filed a judicial misconduct complaint on Wednesday against several Minnesota-based federal judges for "pander[ing]" to legacy media about ICE operations in the state.

"Seven federal judges in the District of Minnesota talked to the New York Times about cases, some of which are on-going, in a manner that the Department of Justice views as a clear violation of their ethical duties," Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement. "Their conduct has undermined public confidence in an impartial judiciary in Minnesota."

The complaint addressed to 8th Circuit Court of Appeals Chief Judge Steven Colloton takes to task a Sept. 17 Times article, in which Senior District Judge Patrick Schiltz and his colleagues bashed the Trump administration's handling of cases involving its January 2026 deportation operations in the North Star State. The Times dutifully framed the judges' remarks as a concerted effort by the government to "defy" federal judges, but even Schiltz conceded that "most, if not all" of the alleged noncompliance "was due to incompetence" and "not due to conscious defiance of orders."

Equally notable about the Times article, however, is the apparent admission that these judges coordinated with one another on ICE-related cases being filed before them.

The Times noted how they "recalled seeking one another's counsel, meeting regularly and consulting in running email threads" as the "number of cases ramped up." While "some of their clerks made an informal spreadsheet showing whom to consult on particular legal questions," some judges "built templates of legal orders so they could respond quickly to some of the detention issues that were arising again and again," according to the outlet.

Trump will apply stricter standards to applicants for SNAP benefits, while boosting the benefits for those who actually are eligible and aren't just foreign scammers.

In other words, it's another Fascist Holocaust from DRUMPF!!!


Families applying for food assistance through the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will, beginning Thursday, face changes to payments, eligibility requirements and how the benefits are administered.

Most families will initially see a slight bump in their monthly payments to support grocery purchases from a cost-of-living adjustment, but in the coming months, households will face stricter eligibility requirements, meaning fewer people will receive the benefits, ABC News reported.

Under new work requirements imposed by the "The Big Beautiful Bill Act," able-bodied adults ages 18 to 64 who don't have dependents will be required to work. Previously, the age limit was 54. Families with children age 14 or older are no longer exempt from the work requirements.

The "The Big Beautiful Bill Act" also requires states to pay for a larger share of SNAP administrative costs, and states with SNAP recipient error rates above 6% will be required to fund a portion of the benefits themselves.

Here's another Fascist Holocaust -- the government has identified 10,000 US households with million dollar yearly incomes receiving unemployment insurance.

Ten thousand U.S. households that earned over $1 million collected unemployment benefits in 2024, receiving nearly $100 million in taxpayer money, according to data shared with The Washington Times.

The data was given to the newspaper by Iowa GOP Sen. Joni Ernst, who received it from the IRS and who has tracked this issue for years.

Among the most common millionaire claimants were engineers, software engineers, lawyers, executive managers and salespeople, according to the newspaper.

High-tax, Democratic-led states topped the list of locations in which the millionaires who collected unemployment lived. California ranked first, followed by New York, Massachusetts and New Jersey.

The payouts should end soon, as part of provision in last year's One Big Beautiful Bill Act barring individuals who earn $1 million or more from collecting unemployment benefits.

This seems to be less of a foreign scam and more of people taking money they're technically entitled to, but shouldn't have been entitled to it.

The Skydance/Paramount of Warner/Discovery is now official and Mark Rufallo is still a slack-jawed mope.





Jim Jordan calls for Deep State Operative Jack Smith to be criminally prosecuted.

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, on Monday renewed his calls for former Special Counsel Jack Smith to be prosecuted for allegedly lying to Congress following revelations that the prosecutor's team monitored the phone records of future Trump administration Chief of Staff Susie Wiles. Jordan first brought the matter of Smith's possible perjury to the fore in July of this year.

Things are looking worse every week for Smith.

Smith's team used a pen register device to track phone calls coming to and from Wiles' phone in 2023, while the special prosecutor was probing President Donald Trump for allegedly mishandling classified documents, as revealed by new documents declassified by the president and released by the White House Government Transparency Task Force on Monday.
GOP lawmakers deprived of constitutional rights, and a judge kept in the dark

As he did in the past, Smith stands accused of legal legerdemain to not only hide the snooping from the lawmakers -- a likely violation of the Speech and Debate Clause of the Constitution -- but also failing to inform the judge he coaxed into signing a gag order that he was tracking communications from lawmakers. Lawmakers enjoy the right to be informed of subpoenas regarding their privileged communications, allowing them an opportunity to challenge (or "quash") the subpoenas. Wiles and other lawmakers never got that chance.

Smith was already in the crosshairs for spying on the communications of members of Congress. A House Judiciary Committee review of Smith's investigations showed that the prosecutor's team collected phone toll records from 17 GOP members of Congress and text messages from as many as 44 lawmakers, some including information privileged to Congress. Among those targeted were former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., Jordan and others.

One of those lawmakers, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., filed a lawsuit against Smith arguing his spying constituted an unauthorized intrusion into her civil rights.

"[I]t's getting almost redundant here. We keep saying it every time. The only thing we get wrong is that it's always worse than we thought," Jordan told the Just the News, No Noise TV show on Monday.

"And now we see Jack Smith not only getting the phone records of members of Congress, not only getting the phone records of the top top Republican legislative committee, not only getting the phone records of the Speaker of the House 16 days after he becomes Speaker of the House, second in line to the President. Now we find out he's getting the communication records of the President's Chief of Staff before she's Chief of Staff, but everyone knew that she was going to be, and she's one of the key people," he continued.



The Democrats and Media, but I repeat myself, have a new anti-Trump hoax.

Trump said that elevated gas prices for a temporary time was a "small price to pay" for permanent gains in security.

The left is claiming he said that an Iran attack that destroys Los Angeles and San Diego would be a "small price to pay."

As they did with the Very Fine People Hoaxes, they are splicing together different remarks from different points in the speech. He spoke of Iran's ability to destroy Los Angeles and San Diego as being a threat that justifies the temporary increase in gas prices to stop.



This is such an outrageous and obvious hoax that even CNN's gayballs partisan "fact checker" gently chides the left about making this absurd claim.

Daniel Dale
@ddale8

This isn't a direct quote from Trump, and I very much don't think it's a correct paraphrase. Trump has repeatedly argued that the consequences of the war, like higher gas prices, are a small price to pay compared to what an unchecked Iran could allegedly do. Last night, in especially rambling and incomplete fashion, he 1) claimed high prices are temporary and suggested they're "artificial"; 2) contrasted that to the damage of Iran supposedly taking out a city; 3) and then, in especially confusing style, repeated his old point that "this," as in the consequences of the war, is a small price to pay to avoid something like a a city being wiped out.

He then excuses the leftwing hoaxers and blames Trump for the hoax, saying that it's really Trump's fault that the left misunderstands him.

It's Trump's fault you kinda have to be steeped in TrumpRallySpeak to know what he was saying last night, and of course you can say it's inappropriate regardless for the president to casually float the possibility of a city being wiped out, but the context exists and is important.

Fuck you, Gayballz.

Black Conservative Perspective clips a bunch of other leftwing liars, including Joe Scarborough and Leonard Jeffries' deranged nephew, pushing this newest hoax.

Woke 1.0 was crazyyyy, man.

bottom line is when you put someone in office that has never had to struggle this is the results. When you cut children and senior citizens off but making profits for you and your family The big beautiful bill

The federal government, who causes this inflation of everything, won't allow for an increase of the snap budget. Cruelty is the entire point of this current administration.

This is near-universal and a defining element of how degraded and weak and worthless most of our society has become, especially anyone with any public profile at all.

There is a high-ranking, and I mean high, DOD official who was plucked from retirement and through circumstances ended up much higher than he expected. His announcement of the appointment (he was part of an online show), of course, began with "whatever you think of this administration .....". Pathetic.

38 Trump's not wrong about a migration-based disaster, but it's worse than he says, or than the way it's described implies.

Many of the merrymakers are 2nd, or even *3rd* generation French citizens. Not fresh migrants, at all.

France actually did a good job (for Europe) assimilating small numbers of its former colonial subjects as immigrants, historically speaking. Obviously that pattern has stopped, or been overwhelmed. Familiar story, that part.

43 Is the Mark Atwood of post 147 the same Mark Atwood who writes that he had rediscovered the great religion of the worship of the sun, or he was being facetious If so, while he made some good points he generalizes quite a bit and I ultimately don't care who a disciple of the sun thinks about the entirely of church in England .
-----

I can't determine if they are the SAME "Mark Atwood".

But the article I linked speaks almost nothing about the church of England, and instead goes line by line on how the marxists BORROWED all of the wrong lessons from "church" and kept none of the great aspects of "church", like a stable meaning of truth and the concepts of grace and forgiveness.

45 >>>This seems to be less of a foreign scam and more of people taking money they're technically entitled to, but shouldn't have been entitled to it.

Strongly disagree. It is unemployment insurance. You are forced to pay into it. The money is deducted from your paycheck before you ever get your hands on it. If you are laid off, you should be able to claim it. Even if you have a high paying job. Even if you have been smart with your money, or even if you have some inherited wealth. You paid for the insurance, you get to collect if you become unemployed.

France's colonial system was distinctive in that some areas had representation in the National Assembly. The "modern" era of migration/immigration is much larger and totally different. Though the remnants of French cultural chauvinism (properly) have so far meant that at least the French language is standard and dominant.

The news coverage of these RIOTS has been comical. They make a point to throw that "protesting for more school resources" in the very first paragraph of every article. Think about that one.

When the Democrats pack the court ? Roberts biggest concerns will be that the new seating arrangement is just as great. The robes are just as good. And he'll still figure out how to be on the 6-5 decisions. Or the 7-6 decisions. Who fucking cares ?

ACB will still figure out how to be on the side of the womenz. Kav will be a reliable vote when its needed.

Thanks Mitch.

They won't need to pack the Court if we don't get it together.

Roberts - 71
Thomas - 78
Alito - 76

Unless, the GOP's plan is to control the senate and presidency forever (not the most realistic plan), it has got to replace these guys with younger blood.

It does, though. Obama had the advantage of running against an unpopular war and a stock market meltdown. His opponent (McCain) for a moment looked like he would pull away but then he stomped on his own dick just as hard as he could, and lost.

He should have lost in 2012, but of course Mitt Romney decided to commit suicide during the presidential debate. Obama was blessed with his enemies..

Which is why his endorsements never work.

That's why he's refused to tack on inch to the center, and he wastes his time campaigning in Dearborn rather than reaching swing voters. Like Harris, he knows he is losing, but will pretend he's not to rake in more cash.

There has always been some degree of fraud, but in 2020 it was massive and obvious. Michigan's old rules required in-person voting with ID and we could tally the votes quickly. The 'tell' was states halt counts, kicking out poll watchers, etc.

The thing is, it is very difficult to steal a ballot as long as Michigan's and the effects were felt downballot.

When Obama was on the ballot, the Michigan GOP faced an extinction-level event.

However, Biden got MORE votes and somehow the GOP held the House. Nope, that was crooked.

Chris Rock: Wokeness is Like Old Testament Morality -- Lots of Rules and No Grace for Violating Any of Them

The comedian claims it's "great" that we never stop talking about the "marginalized," but says there has to be forgiveness for transgressions. Or, I'd call them, fake and gay non-transgressions.


Actor-comedian Chris Rock continues to blast wokeness, and is now accusing left-wing scolds of running a Salem Witch Trials-like campaign with their cancel culture attacks.

Rock has been taking shots at wokeness for a while, of course. He targeted the woke culture in his 2023 special Chris Rock: Selective Outrage . But in a recent interview on The Dailypodcast, Rock got explicit about woke culture and what it is doing to our country.

"The problem with wokeness is we're in the Old Testament right now," he said. "And the Old Testament has no forgiveness. The Old Testament didn't work. So they had to write a remix called the New Testament."

When asked if he felt there was anything "redeeming" that has come out of the last decade of woke leftism, he was not upbeat and noted that when things are "institutionalized" they often go badly.

"The Salem witch hunts. I'm sure the first three witches they caught were actually fucking witches," Rock said. "But then you open up a witch office and now you've got to start lying. Now you've gotta fucking make s-hit up because you've got overhead. You've got to justify the witch hunters fucking pensions and shit."

He added that the media is fake and full of liars, and that Trump is right to declare that.

Rock recently raised eyebrows during his press tour for his new film, Misty, when he said that Trump was right that the news media is filled with lies and fake news.

"I'm not a fan," Rock said of Trump last week. "But it's weird when somebody gets one thing right, and the one thing almost clears them of all their other sins. The news is fake. He got that right."



The Rest is History podcast made an interesting analogy about wokeness. They discussed the Cathar heresy, which was violently suppressed by the Catholic church. I think they even declared a crusade.

Tom Holland claimed that the sudden explosion of heresy allegations during this period did not originate in the actual church, among priests or bishops. It actually originated, he says, in the greatly-growing population of university students at the time, almost all of whom studied religion to one extent or another.

The point he makes is that an oversupply of pointy-headed would-be intellectuals whose salaries are dependent on discovering new and exciting new heresies results, of course, in an overabundance of such accusations. When you pay someone to spin out accusations, they'll spin out accusations.

And the interesting bit is that he likens this state of affairs to current day wokeness. We have our own oversupply of would-be intellectuals unable to find gainful work or the status they crave except by discovering and enforcing new heresies, such as speaking ill of DEI or becoming an apostate to the Church of Marxism.

Interesting point, I thought.

26 The Cathar heresy was an occasion for extreme brutality; I believe an event in this terror was the origin of the phrase "Kill them all, God will know his own."

A town was attacked by the King's army and the residents had all closed themselves up in the cathedral. Many cried and shouted out they were faithful orthodox Catholics, they had nothing to do with the Cathars. The famous phrase was the commanders' orders to his men, and the entire town was slaughtered, faithful Catholics and heretics together.

39 I have a competing theory to the "over credentialed intellectuals bitter about low status" theory.

I think that is partially true, but there is a larger mechanism at play.

Humans have an inherent desire to show virtue to the community, and the weak do it by point out other's deviation from the agreed rules. Scolds.

Religion satisfies this need by giving people a rule book, and an authority to interpret and temper those rules. Without religion, many people still need an outlet to show they have virtue. Some need to show they are the authority and know the rules better than anyone.

I see these kids on college campuses ejaculate out their righteousness based on rules they were told but don't understand. They are not yet credentialed, but they have all the anger and bitterness already.

I used to show that in Criminal Law class but stopped when the students started getting woke in Obama's second term. My point to them is a) police are not going to protect your rights in a stop, that is your duty, b) never be an obnoxious prick to cops on the side of the road with badges and guns. Take your arguments to court and protect your own rights by knowing them, not arguing with the cops trying to avoid taking a trip downtown.

They are not your teacher, parents, etc., and view their job as stopping crime and arresting criminals. Trying to insult and argue with them will result in worse things happening. Save it for an encounter in court with a judge and your own lawyer to prevent an educational beatdown resisting arrest on the side of the road charge.

Someone did some deep research on historical witch burnings in Merrye Olde England. Turned out that after making a database of all witch burnings for the last 1000 years or so, the researcher was surprised to find that over half of all that had ever been done happened in the 1640's - the decade when Britain was racked by civil war for years.

The suspicion/belief is that once central authority broke down for the most part, the easiest way to get rid of a neighbor you didn't like was to declare they were a Witch and burn them.

A perennial (well not that often) problem the Church had early one was the 'drop out' groups. From pretty early on the Church had to be a going concern in the real world to give charity and food to the city of Rome and the areas they ruled as a secular state. This was a problem with the year 1000 end of the world fad. But they needed to keep people growing crops and working to keep the operation going.

84 "Intellectuals" have been just making crap up for years. If they have exhausted the known facts and still can't come up with something new and different, they fail, so they just make it up. Look at eXcrement Kendi and his anti-racism garbage. Look at "women's studies," which used to be about home economics and now is about the evil patriarchy that prevents women from.... getting degrees in women's studies? Or some such shit.

I had an architecture professor like that. I didn't buy his garbage of architecture as sculpture schtick, and barely passed his useless studio class. Yes, architecture can be artsy, but if it doesn't function, there's no point. After all, it isn't a useful building if it doesn't have a toilet.

88 Gosh, I saw a really important podcast recently that I want to recommend to Ace but I have no record of it.

It was two guys I know but not well.

He was saying that Trump was heavily influenced by WWF and the art of drawing an audience, and Hulk Hogan. 40% of what he said was garbage, but this was a real insight and useful. He said that when WWF was losing audience, Hulk came out as a heel and it showed that people loved to hate him. It was great for the industry and for Hulk. He thinks Trump is doing the same in a lot of his tweets -- playing the heel just to get the audience and attention to a subject, and letting the facts of the subject get the glory.

He also talked about Dennis Rodman and how he went to Nork with globetrotters, met Kim, became friends, and that started Trump's interest in normalizing relations with them. As I said, he said a lot of junk, but the idea that Trump intentionally does things that people hate was very interesting. Anyone recognize the podcast?

105 Humans have an inherent desire to show virtue to the community, and the weak do it by point out other's deviation from the agreed rules. Scolds.

Religion satisfies this need by giving people a rule book, and an authority to interpret and temper those rules. Without religion, many people still need an outlet to show they have virtue. Some need to show they are the authority and know the rules better than anyone.

I see these kids on college campuses ejaculate out their righteousness based on rules they were told but don't understand. They are not yet credentialed, but they have all the anger and bitterness already.

The Cathars were heretics, which was considered a challenge to the political order as well as corrupting the Church. Their orgies, the suicides, the libertine behavior, was all very corrosive. I believe the town that was slaughtered did shelter Cathars, and there was no way to tell one from the other, since they lied. Also, sheltering Cathars instead of denouncing them was considered harboring the enemy, which made even faithful Catholics suspect.

It is rather like the asshats who try to defend illegal aliens as some kind of good influence on American society, when we can prove they are corrosive in just about every way. When that defense moves kinetic, bad things happen, even if the actors are Americans.

Obama has been disliked by a chunk of the Left since nearly the beginning, once he started actually doing things and they realized that he was a blowhard with "preferences, not principles." We see him as a radical socialist, while they see him as a conservative corporate Dem; and the way to square that is by recalling that they have a powerful delusion that fascism is right-wing.

So the commies hate him for being the wrong kind of socialist, like how heretics are hated more than unbelievers. The DSA are arguably commies but really incoherent, and most Dems aren't them anyway; so the effect is hard to predict, but it's possible he could actually hurt them with the base.

Fear is a useful tool for oppression far more than violence in many cases because it internalizes the oppression to make people do what you want them to do. So making people fear you is more efficient than individually having to violently assault them for compliance. Besides, they might just kick your ass having nothing left to lose.

143 A lot of the Inquisition was to root out heresy among the Jews that had been forced to convert to Christiananity after Spain outlawed being a Jew.

146 So the commies hate him for being the wrong kind of socialist, like how heretics are hated more than unbelievers. The DSA are arguably commies but really incoherent, and most Dems aren't them anyway; so the effect is hard to predict, but it's possible he could actually hurt them with the base.

It wouldn't be the end of the world for a 1 to 2 degree increase in temperatures. At most, some flooding problems, maybe, but then follow the Dutch example or move inland.
Posted by: SpeakingOf at October 06, 2026 04:56 PM (6ydKt)



Personally, I don't believe that there would be ANY flooding problems. Warming in one area of the world means that another area gets colder. Rather like how the "permanent" ice cap in the Southern Hemisphere is always touted as shrinking in December... which would follow because December is MID-SUMMER in Antarctica.

There have been plenty of eras where the mean temperature of earth was higher than now overall, which is enough to show that the worst warmening fear is exaggerated. And in modern times the Antarctic ice cap is a huge source of cold that makes the entire hemisphere colder.

163 I don't particularly as I think it is more protean than that. People try to raise their social level and drop those of their rivals. Men do it via aggression--verbal or physical, women by stealth and guile (veiled insults, social exclusion, etc.) but it is as if social signalling is going on to signify mating quality.
Posted by: whi

Exactly, but religion channeled and tempered that.

Men also do it by showing value -- intelligence, loyalty, sacrifice. It is not all aggression. But we have a need to show virtue.

It is just not a "God shaped hole," it is a virtue shaped hole.

Atheism in general is lacking in forgiveness and excessive in judgment. If one can never make a mistake without being crucified for it, and the rules change daily, then what is the point of going on? That's how we get Karens, both male and female.

It is rather like the way Ol' Moe changed his mind about what Allah wanted based upon what Moe wanted, particularly concerning murdering Jews and raping children.

An Atheist forms his god in his own image. Rather self-serving, in the long run. And completely lacking in morals and/or ethics.

This is near-universal and a defining element of how degraded and weak and worthless most of our society has become, especially anyone with any public profile at all.

There is a high-ranking, and I mean high, DOD official who was plucked from retirement and through circumstances ended up much higher than he expected. His announcement of the appointment (he was part of an online show), of course, began with "whatever you think of this administration .....". Pathetic.

Partly. But it's way more than a racial thing. You can't achieve this result without high-intensity, broad-spectrum psychological abuse of large populations - it has to permeate everything before all the tumblers lock in, and the rest of machine can turn around it.

Then it can be anyone. If blacks or Hispanics or the Samoans become a target, then it could just as easily be them within a few months. It's an all-purpose thing.

I argue that the East Germans were closest to effecting the desired result, save for the catastrophic failure of nerve among their fickle Russian masters.

209 Re the Cathars: They were a medieval version of Gnostics, who held that the material world was evil and the spiritual world was good. This ended up with them eschewing marriage and practicing free sex, along with ritual euthanasia, abortion, and infanticide. They also refused to take oaths, which in a newly emerging culture would be deadly.

A better analogy would be the Salem witch trials and hysteria, wherein the accused were treated as guilty until proven innocent. There is a strong strain of Puritanism in the whole Woke industry.

Saudi Arabia Joins Yemen's Government in Attacking Iran's Houthi Proxy Army

The IRGC's proxy army in Yemen, the Houthis, struck two Saudi airfields, with light damage. More seriously, they had also seized key positions on the southern tip of the Yemeni coast on the Red Sea, opening a second front for the IRGC to attack the export of oil in an effort to force the world to stop Trump from destroying them.

The terrorist-aligned AP:



Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation said airports in the cities of Najran and Jizan were hit on Monday, damaging both facilities and leaving three lightly injured. The statement didn't say who was responsible, but followed an announcement by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels that they fired missiles and drones at the kingdom.

Houthi Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree said in a statement on Tuesday they had fired toward a third airport on Tuesday. The Associated Press could not confirm whether the Houthis had hit Abha International Airport. Saudi authorities did not immediately comment.

The Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen said Tuesday it intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile launched by the Iran-backed Houthis toward Khamis Mushait, a city in southwestern Saudi Arabia that's home to a major Saudi military base.

Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey have sent their own troops to assist the Yemeni government in driving the Houthis back out of the coastal areas.

...

The Houthis were fighting Tuesday around Dhubab, a strategic town in Yemen that its internationally recognized government had previously said it had retaken, a senior Yemeni military official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to reporters.

Saudi Arabia and its allies in Yemen's government have launched a military campaign to reclaim Houthi-controlled territory near the southern tip of the Red Sea to prevent disruptions to oil being exported out of the region.

AP is excited that Iran managed to hit a tanker moving out of the Strait of Hormuz, though the hit does not seem to have killed anyone, stopped the tanker from moving, or caused any oil to spill.

An outbound tanker transiting the Strait of Hormuz was struck by an "unknown projectile" on Monday, the British military said in a late report Tuesday. There were no immediate reports of casualties or environmental impact.

Even as Iran has lost its near-complete chokehold on the strait, the ongoing risk of Iranian attacks keeps overall ship traffic well below prewar levels.

Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey have activated the "Mecca Defense Alliance" to evict the Houthis.

Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey have agreed to "activate collective defense commitments amid ongoing threats," Saudi Arabia's Arab News said on October 6. This is an important step.

The new alliance has emerged over the last several months. The Houthi offensive in September in Yemen presented the coalition with its first major test. This is because the Houthis launched missiles at Saudi Arabia and directly harmed Saudi citizens.

Arab News said that "Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey on Monday agreed to immediately implement collective-defense commitments under the previously agreed Mecca Defense Alliance, including the swift deployment of agreed forces and other military capabilities to the Kingdom amid ongoing threats."

Saudi Arabia has been working over the last month to prepare a counter-offensive in Yemen. This initiative came after setbacks hit the forces of the internationally recognized government of Yemen, which lost ground around the Bab el-Mandeb strait.

Many observers wondered whether Pakistan and Turkey would come to Riyadh's aid. All of these countries are either partners or close allies of the US, and they have access to advanced military equipment, partly as a result of their US affiliation.

However, it was not clear that Turkey would want to get involved in a conflict in Yemen. In part, this is because Ankara tries to balance relations with Iran, with which it shares a border. Pakistan also has ties with Iran and shares a border with Iran.

Now, Turkey and Pakistan appear to be increasing their support for Riyadh. "The decision was announced following an emergency meeting of the alliance's Strategic Political and Defense Committee in Riyadh to discuss security developments and threats Saudi Arabia is facing during the regional conflict with Iran and its proxies. The alliance was formed by an agreement signed on August 7," Arab News observed.

Update: More details on the fighting from Duane Patterson.

See this graphic video to see Saudis running down and gunning down Houthis while mounted in troop transports. (I guess, I can't see the vehicles. It's POV.)

There were also deadly drone attacks on ground forces.

There are conflicting claims about who launched these attacks, and against whom. Some accounts claim these are videos of Houthi drones attacking Saudi forces, and other accounts say they're Saudi drones hitting the Houthis.

I'm not sure which is correct. The drones are hitting pick-up trucks, which are usually associated with terrorist/guerilla armies, not professional armies. So I'm guessing the IRGC-controlled Houthis are lying and repurposing videos of their own deaths as great victories.





Max Afterburner says the videos show Saudi drones hitting Houthis.

But pedophile Scott Ritter, who has been pushing Islamist propaganda for decades now, claims these are Houthi drones. He says this on Russia Today, of course.

Their rial is roughly 2.7 million to the USD and there's open urban warfare between IRGC and Basij forces and some kind of uprising.

The actual economy has collapsed and the barter system has mostly replaced any currency.

Iran has no access to dollars and can only pay their troops in rials which can't buy anything.

The humanitarian aid isn't doing much. I doubt it's even pumping the brakes.

46 New tanker hit and why the us isn't doing jackshit to uphold their "tanker for tanker" doctrine. "why isn't Trump responding?" Air defense munitions depleted, midterms approaching, pivoting to helping Saudi Arabia against Yeman...if they attack Iran, they may be overwhelmed by the retaliation, and it looks like Iran knows it.

Do these attacks just do some damage to the tankers?? Why isn't iran trying to sink tankers but rather just causing damage to them. Like won't sinking one or two ships (which the US has done to iran near the indian coast) raise human capital and insurance to an unprecedented scale?

Iran is just doing enforcement, not trying to escalate with these strikes. Removing a ship from service for weeks, months or more is doing plenty. It ensures that normal traffic cannot return to the Strait which seems to be their strategic goal for the time being.

Iran gets a significant amount of food from fishing the strait. If they sank a fully or even partially loaded tanker the amount of oil released could be catastrophic to that food supply. Not to mention ancillary ecological affects to the area.

63 Yemen's been divided between north and south for a long time, since back to when the Ottoman Empire occupied the north and British-aligned tribes (then later, after WWII, the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen) occupied the south. Desert tribes that would raid each other from time to time. North and south unified in 1990, but they've continued to fight each other ever since. They will always fight each other.

We recognized the north ("Houthis") from 1946 to 1967, when they kicked us out, then again from 1972 to 1990. We recognized the south from 1972 to 1990 (and arguably until today).

Houthis have been lobbing Iranian missiles at the Saudis now even before these recent events. Saudis and UAE invaded the Houthis and got their asses kicked by degenerate drug addicts of the Houthis back in the Trump I term.

I think the Saudi back stabbing ways has disgusted Trump to the degree that when they asked us to bomb the Houthis, we told them to do it themselves--as long as the Houthis left US shipping alone, we were not going to be a Saudi rent a cop.

It's actually pretty hard to sink a modern ship... especially with missile strikes.

Assuming they still have the missiles, and the targeting systems, and that they don't get intercepted.

Mostly, it seems to be smaller drones with, effectively, a grenade as explosive payload.

Oil and Gas are also about as dense as water or lighter. There are a number of cases in WWII of savaged tankers hanging around for days. One was the Tanker Ohio sending fuel to Malta, it took 2 destroyers tied alongside to move her the last day or so travel and once they pumped out the fuel the keel of the ship broke and it sunk in harbor, but saved Malta from having to surrender.

They do. Russia and the Ukes used it here or there over the years. You can fry out the drone itself and it worked for a while, now they harden them up more if they care.

Plus those EMP carriers are uncommon, so there's room for the cheap ones for scouting, screwing with the grunts in the cracks. If they have a good target they send in a big and fast one directly.

149 “The record the Weaponization Working Group reviewed indicates that the Garland Memorandum was the product of pressure from senior Biden Administration officials working closely with the NSBA—indeed, as noted above, the NSBA itself admitted as much in its after-action report.”

The proposal disturbed attorneys within the Department of Justice. Attorneys in the Criminal Division “strongly” objected to merging the two topics, with one calling it “horrible.” Their concern was focused on the optics of attempting to address parental protests of school boards in an Attorney General Memorandum also discussing threats to election officials. They believed it would “look political. One attorney said that if leadership did “this, they might as well rename the damn thing the Anti-MAGA Task Force.” It would be, another agreed, “tupid, stupid, stupid.” And another attorney pointed out that making the “DOJ/FBI . . . the threats police” lacked a “limiting principle.”

USN dug a new canal on the other side of an island on the Omani side of the strait, even.

Iran has no hold on the strait at all, and it's dying as a nation. Bets to how much GDP it's lost in the last 7 months?

40%? 50%? 75%?

Plus, their manufacturing base and missile stockpile.

If the US just walked away right now, I'm not sure it could project power seriously for a decade. And that's assuming things went right in the rebuilding phase, but considering how corrupt ME stuff is...even that 10 year timeline seems doubtful.

Posted by: bonhomme
--------------

I'm with you. Armour solved the problem of anti-armor rounds by having reactive armor that blows up the round before it blows up the armor underneath.

The rounds countered that by having two stacked shaped charges - the first one blows up the reactive armor, the second then hits the armor blowing up the vehicle.

OK so why can't drones blow a hole in the fence first? Maybe it takes two drones, but that should not be a big deal. They could probably ride the same fiber and work in coordination. But I don't see that happening so I guess I am wrong.

well the owl makes it surely Vandenburg.

A small drone with a light and presumably a camera for observation fits pretty well. Sound would be minimal at a distance. Estimations of height, speed and the like are often not too trustworthy because if you think its far, then a moderate speed becomes blazing fast.

199 Yemen's a real dump. Khat accounts for half its GDP. That's never a great sign, but what makes it much worse than, say, Colombia in the 80s, is that most of it doesn't get exported.

It's just dope for the home market, which was largely born dumb before they even got their first jar of Gerber's Tot-Khat puree.

Then, to make matters *even worse,* water-intensive Khat production accounts for 40% of the irrigated arable land in a country that is perennially malnourished and short of potable water.

But... the Houthi militias control the Khat trade, so it works for them.

its hard to blow holes in a fence, as the force goes through holes. In WWI artillery had a hell of a time blowing apart barbed wire reliably. Then you have to have the second drone hit the same gap, on a vehicle bouncing down a road at 30 mph.

And as for having multiple drones on the same optic cable, that's not gonna help, the cable isn't a guide its just a tail.

Presumably you could design a chain link fence defeater but it would cost more than just designing a drone that fires a ground attack missile from an aircraft with a lot of mass behind it. And that costs more than the average truck or SUV driving about in the warzone.

Germany Arrests Its Former Top Spymaster for Treason, Accusing Him of Spying for a Foreign Power

The foreign power is reportedly not Russia.

Germany's former spy chief, August Hanning, was arrested on Tuesday for alleged treason, with Berlin accusing him of gathering sensitive documents for a foreign spy service.

"Hanning is strongly ⁠suspected of treasonous espionage, obtaining state secrets, attempted treason and espionage," German prosecutors said in a statement, according to Reuters.

Hanning previously served as president of the Federal Intelligence Service (BND).

...

His arrest marks a major scandal for the German state, with prosecutors alleging that Hanning's espionage occurred over multiple years and involved more than 2,000 documents.

China, maybe? Surely not Iran.

I'm afraid it will turn out to be a western nation.

Speaking of treason, a watchdog agency concludes that Biden deliberately risked the country's national security by allowing known security risks to remain in the country on expired visas.

The Biden administration risked national security by letting millions of foreigners illegally overstay their nonimmigrant visas, including 104,000 who posed threats, while launching fewer than 500 investigations to remove violators, according to a bombshell report by the Homeland Security Department's internal watchdog.

"From fiscal years 2021 to 2024, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) took few enforcement actions using targeted leads concerning foreign nationals who overstayed or otherwise violated their nonimmigrant visa terms of admission," the inspector general reported.

"As a result, foreign nationals who potentially posed threats to the United States remained at large despite their illegal status," the report added.

The report laid bare a Biden strategy that de-emphasized tracking down foreigners overstaying their permission to stay in the country, leaving a staggering statistical mess that included:

3,145,375 nonimmigrant visa overstays

104,049 foreigners who were deemed national security and public safety concerns

ICE conducted just 496 investigations and arrested just eight foreigners

The watchdog traced the crisis to a September 2021 policy change that directed Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) "to only investigate "Priority 1" leads -- those potentially posing the highest threat to national security or public safety.

"Of the 1,769 viable Priority 1 leads, HSI initiated only 84 investigations (about 5 percent), resulting in two arrests," it added. "The other 3,041,326 (96.7 percent) overstay leads were deemed Non-Priority."

The watchdog traced the crisis to a September 2021 policy change that directed Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) "to only investigate "Priority 1" leads -- those potentially posing the highest threat to national security or public safety.

"Of the 1,769 viable Priority 1 leads, HSI initiated only 84 investigations (about 5 percent), resulting in two arrests," it added. "The other 3,041,326 (96.7 percent) overstay leads were deemed Non-Priority."

So they didn't even follow the absurdly narrow policy in stated the memo. There was the written policy, and then there was the actual policy, which was not written down.

The fact is we have no idea who is here. There are reportedly countless operatives from foreign intelligence agencies hostile to the US in the country conducting all types of surveillance and reconnaissance activities. You will get many official denials from agencies saying that modern satellite techniques make those activities of minimal value. But the fact is you now have threat actors inside our borders who can carry out direct action and up close surveillance. How do we know? Because we have caught some recon operatives doing things like photographing sensitive facilities, military bases, and people within the national defense including SOF and their families.

One of the 'Cornell 7' fraternity brothers hit with explosive sexual assault allegations stemming from an alleged gang rape at the Ivy League school is believed to have retreated to Dubai, the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal.
Umar Matthew Ingalls won a coveted place at Cornell University in 2023, but his promising future unraveled after a female former student accused him and six other men of sexually assaulting her during a fraternity party in October 2024.
Ingalls, 21, was later expelled from Cornell following an internal university investigation.
One of Ingalls' neighbors told the Daily Mail they believe he has returned to the Middle East, where he enjoyed a privileged upbringing and attended an elite private school in Emirates Hills, the wealthy enclave often dubbed the 'Beverly Hills of Dubai.'

They can get sued for failing to represent. It’s crazy.

Would they take this all the way to arbitration? Probably. But they might not really want to do that.

Trump Gives Order to Subject Fort Hood Terror Shooter Nidal Malik Hasan His Own Bout of State-Sanctioned Workplace Violence

Last week I linked an article asking rhetorically, why is this terrorist murderer, who killed 13 people, still drawing air, despite having been convicted and sentenced to death?

Why has Trump not given the execution order yet?

Well, Trump signed the order.

This is the AP, so expect some bias in reporting this.

President Donald Trump has approved the execution by firing squad of Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan for the 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood, Texas.

The U.S. military has not carried out the death penalty since 1961. The Army secretary will decide a time and place for the execution, Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell wrote in a post on X.

"Judgement day for Hasan has finally come," Parnell wrote.

Hasan, an Army psychiatrist, walked into a medical building where soldiers were getting medical checkups, shouted "Allahu akbar" -- Arabic for "God is great!" -- and opened fire with a laser-sighted handgun. Thirteen people were killed and more than 30 injured.

He said it was an effort to stop them from going to Afghanistan and killing his fellow Muslims and made almost no effort to defend himself at trial. He told jurors that evidence would show he was the shooter and described himself as a soldier who had "switched sides."

...

Death sentences are extremely rare in the military justice system, and executions even rarer.

It is also rare for a "soldier" to murder 13 of his fellows and wound 30 others while shouting terrorist murder-slogans.

The AP adds another irrelevant factoid to show How Terrible This All Is.

...

Trump approved the firing squad execution days after a failed attempt to execute Christa Pike by lethal injection pushed Tennessee's governor to halt further executions this year and order an independent review.

What has that got to do with anything?

Since AP added that unrelated factoid to show how barbaric it is to punish murderers with death, I'll mention that the prison official overseeing Christa Pike's botched execution has resigned.

The head of Tennessee's prison system is set to resign after the botched execution of Christa Pike earlier this week, Gov. Bill Lee announced Saturday.

Lee said that Tennessee Department of Correction Commissioner Frank Strada will step down this month, but did not offer any other specifics.

Strada said in a statement that he believes "the Department carried out its responsibilities in accordance with the established protocol," but that "stepping aside is in the best interest" of the state's residents as an independent review ordered by Lee begins.

"I believe this review is entirely appropriate and necessary, and I look forward to doing everything I can to help determine exactly what occurred," Strada said. Strada was named commissioner by Lee in January 2023.

Pike was set to be executed by lethal injection on Wednesday, but the process failed twice. Pike's attorneys said Friday that she is unconscious and intubated in a Nashville-area hospital. She is using a ventilator to breathe and has significant injuries to both arms, her attorneys said. Hospital staff is working to clear the pentobarbital from her body.

71 Pike's crime was even more heinous and evil than is usually reported.

Yes, it's usually reported that she carved a pentagram into Slemmer's chest and then bashed her head in with a rock.

But before that, Pike and the other girl took turns carving Slemmer up with a box cutter and knife. Over 100 (!) slices were made.

Then Pike carved a pentagram. Slemmer was alive during all this. Then Pike repeatedly smashed her head with a rock until she died.

Pure, unadulterated demonic evil. Pazuzu is thinking "wow, this bitch is evil." We haven't invented punishment severe or painful enough for what Pike deserves.

Unfortunately the Eighth Amendment bans cruel and usual punishment. In part, because the Brits were so inventive with gruesome punishments. Sepoy Rebellion, they executed rebels by strapping them across cannons making them 'cannonized' martyrs. Starvation in basket cages on castle walls, drawing and quartering, etc. And they even dug up Cromwell's body, decapitated him, and posted his decaying skull on a post for awhile. Gibbeting where the purpose of hanging the person was not designed to snap the neck but instead slowly strangle the person was another when they did not feel like pressing someone or dunking to determine if they were a witch.

By comparison, the guillotine was a step forward in executions.

176 The now-defunct Soviet Union's method of criminal execution consisted of an executioner armed with a pistol putting a bullet in the brain of the condemned. Presumably in the event of an FTF, the executioner would keep going until the weapon worked and the condemned was adjudged legally dead.

I think (but I'm not sure) modern-day Russia still uses this comparatively painless method. Insofar as I know, the bullet-to-the-head approach has been 100% successful. Not much ritual is involved. It's all very straightforward: Hello, goodbye.

Making executions a complicated, even arcane ritual is borderline barbaric in its own right, putting an enormous amount of unnecessary stress and emotional weight on all involved.

When drinks are tested for date-rape drugs, usually alcohol is the only one that they test positive for.

But a shockingly large number of women (and men for that matter) don't realize that alcohol is, in fact, a date-rape drug. It's 1. a CNS depressant 2. with calories, so it's metabolized by muscle. Which men have much more of.

Of course, if people are also openly doing ketamine at a party, that takes it to the next level. That (plus a hot tub) was the combo that killed Matthew Perry, IIRC, and he was an experienced user with a personal assistant. The people in this incident were self-roofied to the max.

Posted by: OneEyedJack

Christians were burned alive at the stake. The whole idea that the executed should not suffer is a modern conceit, not a core belief of Christianity as such. Same with issues like stocks, flogging, etc.

Society in the past was not crueler (see probably a million per year of babies being aborted for that) but rather more common sense because the idea of keeping a murderous monster alive watching pron and exercise, and even in some states, conjugal visits with ghoulish women that marry/have sex with these creeps. That would be viewed as cruel to society and their victims.

Thus the rotten fruit of today where the victims are shunted aside and ignored while the monsters are feted in the media and by wicked groups blaming society rather than the monster for what they did.

We are both more stupid and less moral than our forefathers as a society and misplaced compassion for perps is to blame.

224 Inert gas as a simple asphyxiant is amazingly fast, painless.

• These non-toxic or minimally toxic gases push oxygen out of the air in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces. Normal air has about 21% oxygen; levels below 19.5% are considered dangerous.
• Common examples: Nitrogen, helium, argon, neon, and methane.

Or, a few seconds with a bit of sinus pain attached?

Hydrogen sulfide: It smells like rotten eggs at low levels (0.5 to 5 ppm), but high concentrations (>100 ppm) rapidly deaden the sense of smell (olfactory fatigue), making the gas dangerously undetectable by scent.

• Prevents cells from using oxygen even when blood oxygen levels are normal.

254 Last night, DJT signed an executive order that allows truck fleets to use red-dyed diesel for highway transportation.
Posted by: mrp


On the one hand, okay. I guess that since he can't remove the diesel tax (Congress's job) that might be a way to reduce transport expenses, at least until all the gas stations jack their dyed diesel prices to undyed levels to get that much more money for themselves.

On the other hand, the truckers cause more wear than all the passenger vehicles do, because heavier loads, why should they not be paying the taxes that - at least allegedly - fund road maintenance?

This kind of thing is a demoralization op, not being conquered as such. It is meant to show that there is no way to win with government and Muzzies shoulder to shoulder. But it is also bullshit. Because both conditions are changeable. Muzzies are not anywhere near a majority in UK and this government,like all others can fall to citizens.

Cops arrested a Chinese couple accused of farming 21 children at their castle-like California mansion.

Officers swooped on the Arcadia address early Tuesday and detained Guojun Xuan, 65, and his partner Silvia Zhang, 38, on multiple charges.

That is one pragmatic reason for the death penalty. As most premeditated murderers are egotistical pieces of shit anyway, in group crimes, you can always get one to testify against the other(s) to save their worthless life.

As I recall, the SS went to death vans and then to full on gas chambers at least in part because of the effect of all that killing on the executioners. Insanity was a problem, but also I believe that they were afraid of what would happen when the executioners had completed their work and re-entered German society having gotten used to killing without remorse. I believe that was talked about extensively at the Wannsee Conference where Heydrich and the rest of those bastards planned out the killing.

So it's nice that they're using other universities' scandals to say "drugs are bad, mmmkay" instead of waiting until one of our own co-eds drunkenly takes a header off a fraternity fire escape.

Pretty sure most of the frats here are moving to cigars, rather than booze, but I could be wrong.

Cornell 7 Frat Brother: I Was Too Drunk to Give Consent, She Raped Me

It is true that almost everyone involved was drunk and drugged (by themselves).

Why isn't it true that the accuser raped the boys, who, per the new feminist theory that being drunk negates any concept of consent, also could not consent to the female attacker's advances?

A "Cornell 7" frat bro accused in the alleged gang-rape of a young woman claimed to campus cops that he was too wasted to consent to sex with her -- suggesting he was the real victim, according to records.

Matthew Ingalls -- one of the seven Chi Phi fraternity brothers at the center of the explosive Ivy League case -- told Cornell University police that he was the one too intoxicated from booze and ketamine to consent to sex that fateful 2024 night, records obtained by ABC News showed.

Ingalls suggested that the alleged victim -- a then-20-year-old student only identified as Jane Doe in court papers -- was the one who therefore assaulted him during the debauched and drunken night and not the other way around, as she has claimed.

Ingalls has previously been identified as the frat brother who told his friends through a fraternity group chat to "come whip it out" after another had announced there was "free p--sy" to be had in the house, referring to the accuser.

"Like you can walk in and whip it out," he wrote in the chat, which had nearly 60 people in it. "Boys come whip it out."

Ingalls was the brother who first invited Doe over to the house and propositioned her for a threesome that allegedly devolved into various brothers coming into the room to take turns having sex with her.

They are accused of plying her with booze and ketamine during the encounter, which she claimed later incapacitated her to the point that she couldn't consent to anything beyond that.

Ingalls allegedly fell asleep at one point during the sexual encounter -- prompting another brother to reportedly take his place -- before he woke again later and rejoined the sex, documents released by the Tompkins County District Attorney's Office showed.

...

Ingalls' reported comments to cops were just the latest twist in the confusing case, which has seen contradicting claims from all parties involved -- including Doe herself, who originally assured Ingalls everything they did together was consensual, Cornell documents showed.

But that idea slowly began to shift in the ensuing weeks as she kept thinking about how the night transpired and after rumors began swirling around campus and people suggested Doe had been raped. She reportedly began to feel the same way.

I insist that if it takes you weeks of reflection and rumination to "realize" you were raped -- you were not raped at all.

The daydrinking emptyheaded leftwing housewives of TikTok are bored and so they need something new to shriek about:

Byron York
@ByronYork

The political path of the Cornell rape allegation:

1) Initial police/DA investigation finds woman's participation was "voluntary, conscious, and consensual." No criminal charges filed.

2) Cornell University Office of Civil Rights investigation reaches finding consistent with police/DA, but concludes fraternity members violated school policies. Expels two frat members, suspends two others, bars one from campus, and shuts down fraternity permanently.

3) Seemingly settled, case fades.

4) Woman changes story, files much-publicized lawsuit blaming incident on fraternity, members, Cornell University, local bar, and her own sorority.

5) Case explodes politically. Local DA re-opens criminal investigation. NY governor appoints AG Letitia James, famous for pursuing President Trump, as special prosecutor.

6) Media narrative emerges blaming Trump for alleged "glorification of being thuggish and swaggering and mistreating women is kind of making you a cool kid."

Everything I Don't Like is DRUMPF!!!


The woman also sued her own sorority, Delta Delta Delta, both the local chapter and the national organization. The lawsuit says that before she arrived at the Chi Phi fraternity house that night, she had "consumed about 10 standard drinks within the past 3 hours." Looking at the lawsuit's timeline, it appears nearly all of that drinking took place at the Delta Delta Delta sorority house.

The lawsuit said that Delta Delta Delta "held itself out to the public, and more particularly to [the woman] herein, as possessing the proper degree of safety measure to adequately protect its members and to use reasonable care and diligence in its monitoring and policing of the [local chapter's] house and those living in and utilizing said house." In other words, the woman is suing her sorority for allegedly not putting a stop to her heavy drinking.

I am Stronk and Empowered and Capable of Making My Own Decisions but also I want an infinite number of female nannies and male authority figures to tell me what, or who, I can put into my body.

You know, the feminists are always complaining that in Victorian times, women were treated "like children."

And they're demanding we return to that system -- when they want that system in place, at least.

They may wind up getting their wish, because people have had enough of this shit.

...

The governor of New York, Kathy Hochul, then named state Attorney General Letitia James as a special prosecutor for the case. James, of course, is legendary for campaigning for office on a platform of pursuing President Donald Trump, and then, once elected, concocting an elaborate but embarrassingly thin fraud lawsuit against Trump....

The lesson of the Trump case is that if Letitia James wants to get someone, she will figure out a way to get someone, whether or not it's a case that will hold up in court. The Chi Phi members will need to prepare for that.

When the accuser's lawyers released her lawsuit, a number of observers pointed to the evidence that authorities originally gathered in the days and weeks after the 2024 incident. It seemed clear that the woman had consented to what took place, a conclusion supported both by the county district attorney and the Cornell Office of Civil Rights, which conducted the university's investigation. Some predicted the case would go nowhere.

But now the matter is in a new realm -- the realm of politics....


It seems likely the case will become even more political in coming days and weeks. And, as with everything else in our society, it will become to some degree about Trump. A media narrative, and a social media debate, will emerge in which the fraternity members become associated with Trump, and the woman becomes associated with the forces of good and decency standing up to Trump.

On ABC News's This Week on Sunday, the New York Times's Michelle Cottle pointed to a series of noxious social media messages the fraternity members sent about the woman. "You can't send those messages, no matter how drunk you are, as a frat boy without having some kind of misunderstanding about what women are there for and whether this is a real person you're dealing with," Cottle said. And who might be to blame for that? Cottle pointed to Trump. "And that, I think, starts, you know, we can go to the president for this one," Cottle continued. "I mean, we are in a moment in this culture where the glorification of being thuggish and swaggering and mistreating women is kind of making you a cool kid."

It took just a couple of weeks from the lawsuit being filed to a newscast explaining that Trump was somehow involved. And it's likely that the politicization of this case is just getting started.

They are now holding rallies on college campuses. Cornell is the catalyst. You’ll be surprised to know Democrats are also using these as voter registration drives and are pushing the mail in ballot process.

10 This is an AWFL voter activation ploy for the campus feminists. Events occurred two years and so ago, suddenly it blows up like the vile Clancy woman.

This is a media-Dem op aimed to raise college female voting participation (like in NH). If you noticed, a federal judge in NH just set aside a legitimate state law that banned use of student ids in NH for voting.

NH has long had an issue with out of state (and probably foreign too) students voting in their elections so they banned the practice unless the students show some legitimate ties to NH like driver's license, etc.

I think the fake and gay criminal investigation is meant to help the civil litigation (and boost female college turnout for Holchul) and give a big payday from the organizations like Tri Delt, the frat, Cornell, etc. and their insurers.

It is meant to pressure the institutions involved to settle quickly in order to prevent national reputations from being damaged.

Just one more example of Democrats willing to burn society literally to the ground by their fake and gay political ops like George Floyd, Trayvvon, even Rosa Parks back in the day, etc. etc.

37 "But that idea slowly began to shift in the ensuing weeks as she kept thinking about how the night transpired and after rumors began swirling around campus and people suggested Doe had been raped. She reportedly began to feel the same way."

That was the common thinking, but the reality is her motive is as old as time: revenge. Hell hath no fury and all.

The missing piece of the puzzle for me was why her texts to the guys -- yes, she was texting her supposed rapists -- suddenly turned accusatory in late October. Before that, her texts were friendly and even solicitous of another encounter with her rapists.

I thought it was because she hadn't yet realized how embarrassing the episode was for her in the gossip mill. But that seemed off, because the story went viral within hours.

Then I learned that she was uninvited from the frat halloween party. She was angry about that in the texts she sent to the guys. She then immediately went hostile with her texts, and went to the cops a week later.

This whole thing is basically just revenge for dissing her on the invite. "Mattress Girl" all over again. I initially had sympathy for her. I don't any more.

42 Title IX now needs to change the rules for males.

It all goes back to booze, underage drinking (or drugs). And most of the time the male is blamed.

Does not matter if SHE initiates sex, texts about sex, or provides the booze/drugs.

In this case she did sex for drugs (as she was already drunk). Same as prostitution.

She and the boys are trash. However, I don't consider this rape.

Rape is when you call 911, file with police and get a rape kit at the ED. Those are the proper channels. Vs delayed guilt or that one boy does not want to be your boyfriend revenge rape story.

That matters in the legal realm, but not the political realm of activating a core constituency of the Democrat Party: single women.

Democrats are making hay of a 2 year old non-crime that was thoroughly investigated and dropped in the Biden era to try and get their base to vote.

Less than a month from an election.

Because the Democrat Party doesn't believe the polling. They believe the early vote analysis that shows mail in ballots below 2022 levels. They also don't believe the spin that Democrats who did vote by mail are suddenly going to vote in person for reasons.

I'm not talking about the individual reactions in women, but in how Democrats are desperate to activate their own base.

This isn't meant to appeal to married women who vote Republican, or black men who are trending away from the party, or white working class males.

It's a direct appeal to young, white single women. One of the two most loyal voting blocs Democrats have, begging them to vote.

It's not rank emotionalism from the efforts by the press and Dem figures to front this in the national consciousness. It's desperate electioneering from a very specific case:

Turnout is low.

64 4 had sex with her, not 7 by her own count. Threeish overlapping threesomes. 1 kissed her and she pushed him away. 2 dropped by and left.

"Seven" is bogus.

Also, she was excited for potential gay sex between #1and #2.

She refused guys, sex acts, and certain guys touching her places. She texted her roommate at 3 she didn't know if she was coming home.

When you narcissisticly injure a borderline/narcissist, she will not stop in taking retribution.

If a woman is raped or sexually assaulted, she goes immediately to the ER and/or police. Immediately. Like within hours, or at least the next day.

She doesn't wait almost a month. She doesn't text her rapists telling them she had a good time. She doesn't fish around for an invite to the Rape House halloween party.

I never believed any of these belated "I WUZ RAPEDED" tall tales of bullshit, because they are so far afield from how I know truly abused and raped women act.

Exactly. I only wonder if it was an op from the start of simply taken by the activists for those purposes.

I have to assume that Lucy would have had a better lawyer if it was an op from the start. But since the activists don't really care about the final results they may have gotten a terrible lawyer and they can get their headlines for the next month as planned. (And then cry later about the injustice of losing with their terrible lawyer.)

90% of all voting behavior is self-starting.

No amount of mailers, TV ads, or door knocking will change that.

And most of that 90% is "how important is this election to me?" Local elections don't move people. State level elections move people more. Federal, statewide elections move people the most.

If you want to juice turnout, the only thing that can help at the margins is individual voter contact. Join a phone bank or knock on doors. It'll help at the margins.

But, ultimately, it's just a question of which side decides that they might vote this year more than the other side. On their own.

Blue turnout is down more than red turnout so far. It's kind of a best case scenario for how politics actually works.

I am so proud of the young woman who not only reported this to the police initially, but also is now suing on her own after they failed her. And the investigation is being reopened thanks to the online outrage. Make them pay financially and with jail time if you can!! Do it for yourself and for all the women who weren't even able to report. After my SA, I went into shock and never reported. Getting through the day was all I could manage. Your strength gives me so much hope for the Gen Z generation of women. Amazing woman!!!!

Big big settlement, I hope, as in millions. We must expect Cornell will be defending itself with bots and pundits very soon, and there are already bad actors trying to dox and shame her and redirect the conversation. They may have been initially caught out by public outrage, but pushback will be happening.

I just learned that 5 only had to write "reflective essays"?? Holy shit I hope the rest of these mfs' lives are hell on Earth. Its so fucking gross that the university admin is ACTIVELY protecting these fucking rapists.

Based on what we know this was almost certainly a popular "jock" frat that probably held a lot of prestige and leverage on campus. The pics of the guys I've seen all look like above-average looking, athletic guys.

I'm sure there were other girls willing to do almost anything if it meant getting "in" with an A-List Frat.

Just like older versions of these girls seek out guys with yachts, and are willing to sell their bodies for it, the college-aged versions seek out prestigious frats, and are willing to sell their bodies for it.

I don't know why any guy would ever want to be in some kind of debauched conga line to have sex with a woman who is still dripping wet from the last guy....

I think most of us wouldn't, but in a frat party situation, I'm sure there was a lot of peer pressure to show what a manly stud you are. It certainly doesn't speak well of the participants.

118 As previously mentioned - the vortex of stupidity was large enough to capture many young people that evening.

She didn't do ten shots before arriving. She would have been unconscious before she got there. That is her after the fact claim on a recorded phone call she had with the kid that invited her. His response to her claim was "that's not what you told me you told me you hadn't been anywhere else first." Oh I am sure she was liquored up, but she perambulated there successfully under her own power - didn't get lost, distracted or fall down and go boom. Getting drunk doesn't disable your ability to consent. She wasn't unconscious, didn't claim she blacked out until after she had already agreed to several group sex sessions per her statement to the AG. She said she didn't know if anything happened after she blacked out. There's no evidence or video that has turned up showing that something happened while she was blacked out or unconscious. The whole thing is a giant YUCK.
Bottom line - kids watch porn and think it looks like fun - and this is what you get.
A girl gets drunk enough to disclaim responsibility, the guys get drunk enough to violate rule 1.

======
Trump is not on the ballot and a fair chunk of the GOP candidates are repulsive slugs like Collins. Hard to motivate casual Trump voters when you have to swallow voting for the lesser of evils that are ruining your locality and state with their antics.

The GOP traditionally never built a GOTV organization like the Dems did because their voters being of higher SES turnout out themselves. Dems did not. Higher SES has now become Democrats (primarily due to Higher Ed and hatred of the bourgeoise middle class). They turn out. Dems have now only to concentrate on minority turnout. Their problem is that working class minorities don't like what the college educated SES class of Dem voters want. Endless immigration hurts working class, so does crime, and inflation.

Now the party bases are flipped with white males and working class being the casual voters and these casual voters for the GOP have to be chased and brought to the polls--not via insipid and stupid ads, fliers, and other GOP mainstays, but knocking on doors, rides to the polls, even mail in balloting. They know GOPe types hate them.

129 Why the system puts more emphasis on female intoxication vs male intoxication...

Most of the long term and forever physical side effects accrue to the female not the male. The male cannot get pregnant with the lifetime effects to the body that entails, whether the pregnancy is fully carried or not. The male is less likely to pick up an STD from a female vs a female getting one from a male.

Also, the male always maintains a strength advantage in the situation, so his no is more personally enforceable than hers.

So, long term effects and gender advantages/disadvantages has always put the burden on the man to make sure the woman is willing vs the other direction in incidents of dual intoxication levels.

Is it fair - depends how you define fair. Although usually dual intoxication never ends up in charges or convictions for anyone, b/c reasonable doubt is too high a bar in almost all of these cases. As it should be. You don't make good law with bad cases, and judging impaired intent and consent by both parties is almost impossible without real time evidence.

Making this issue du jour a month before election should do nothing but negative things for black, male turnout. It probably won't do much for black, female turnout either.

And the biggest problems Dems are seeing in early vote so far are black precincts not turning out at kind of shocking rates compared to whiter precincts.

You are using deductive reasoning. Politics, doesn't do that--instead it relies on rhetoric. Aristotle pretty much summarized the differences between dialectic (aiming an an objective truth), and rhetoric. Good rhetoric has a core of truth in it but is not the whole truth. Bad rhetoric can still be damn effective even when its underlying premises are illogical.

That is because it is aimed at the 80 percent or so of the public that votes by 'feel' or other emotions rather than facts.

IIRC that comes from a questionnaire that asks if the woman ever regretted a sexual encounter later including things like:

My longterm boyfriend started kissing me and wanted sex. I wanted to surf tiktok but I figured I'd give in and starfish him so he'd stop being horny. Yes, I'm still dating him.

Chad McAthlete and I went on a date. As we started making out he told me he loved me and we had hot animal sex. After that he didn't return my calls so obviously it was rape.

The problem is that for the last 60-odd years, we've been told there was no difference between men and women...unless it was to the woman's advantage.

It isn't supposed to work that way. If you want special consideration, you aren't equal, and therefore women shouldn't expect that they're entitled to be firemen, police, military, etc.

I'm sure there were other girls willing to do almost anything if it meant getting "in" with an A-List Frat.

Just like older versions of these girls seek out guys with yachts, and are willing to sell their bodies for it, the college-aged versions seek out prestigious frats, and are willing to sell their bodies for it.

It isn't supposed to work that way. If you want special consideration, you aren't equal, and therefore women shouldn't expect that they're entitled to be firemen, police, military, etc.

You have to pick one.

See, I disagree there - there are always roles for women - they just might not be the same roles as men have. And the most superior women who can make the men standards at select spots should probably get a shot at those spots - what we have done is dumb down standards, and that's where we fell. And when that woman makes those select spots, it should be the same way a man has to - no extra tutor or help or rewash...

A few years out of college, I visited a friend where she was doing grad school. Our big plan was "hang out," so she took me to babysit some single moms. (She was giving some new friends of hers time for a date night, as they were the live-in supervision for a kind of rehab halfway house or something.)

So while the couple went out to a movie, we were watching Coyote Ugly on home video with the residents, the first time I'd ever seen it. And out of nowhere, as the MC was dancing on a table, this plain, 'fluffy', and morose young woman living there says, "This is my favorite movie."

That will haunt me to my dying day. "This is my favorite movie." So bleak.

There was a long thread on X I wish I'd saved.
But the bottom line was, the low-level, front-line guys who enable most of the fraud--the ballot requests, the harvesting, GOTV, etc.--are:

1) not getting paid, with no prospect of getting paid; USAID and all the other sources are dried up.
2) see the stories of arrests and investigations and have calculated the risk/reward to not be worth it.
(and for what? So the Dems take the House? Trump still controls the DOJ.)
3) this is the feedstock for the real fraud--actual ballots returned to launder in with and conceal the fraudulent ballots.

Yet every poll is showing Presidential election level enthusiasm from blacks and the youth.

Not really. She obviously has self esteem issues which she tries to deal with. She wants to feel desired. So, work out, improve self image. Get banged, be desirable. She probably is also HEAVILY into every fad diet and thing.

271 What happened was she finally took enough dicks in one night that her sorority sisters started finding out that she's a gross skank, and they have appearances to keep up, being Tri Delts and all that...so instead of facing up to the fact that they gave a bid to the village bicycle, they started convincing her that what she did was rape so they don't have to wear the stigma that the gross skank brought back to the house.


this is undoubtedly the case. she was 20! not 18. not her first rodeo

ALSO she claimed to have some "status" at the house or expect one. that is the "little sister" status and this house expressly said NO to that.

at Penn my bf's house had two little sisters. they didn't date brothers and they were not hos. they hung around and helped out with party cleanup and volunteer events (and were great).

the BROTHERS decide if you are a Little Sister and you don't get there by sleazing around. there WAS a girl like her. she gave half the house the clap.

that said, they did always let her come to their parties. that was the mistake this house's President made. that pissed the she-beast off

Possible, but the story went viral in a way that strongly suggests a coordinated op. This is basically just a local news story, and a rehash of an older story at that.

The timing of the lawsuit also seems suspicious to me. She could have filed this suit at any time over the last two years, but she does so a month before a major election, in a state where Hochul should be much further ahead than she is?

He related the story with some degree of shock regret and fear because as he told it, she was very insistent on going further. She said "What are you chicken! Afraid to f - me" The girl subsequently hooked up with another guy 21 and got pregnant. That guy married her. Don't know what happened since.

I think the percentage of people who actively vote at least 2/4 of every election and switch parties is like 1% of the electorate at most.

You have hard partisans who acknowledge their partisanship and soft partisans who don't but who do have the partisanship. And it's just about getting those soft partisans to vote or not vote.

You don't go from D/R 53/42 in 2008 to 45/52 in 2010 because 5 million people shifted their vote preferences.

She did the drugs because they were offered but no one has suggested that requiring to put out to get the sex was ever even implied.

She says that she was trunk. She said that weeks after the fact. Other have said that she didn't seem drunk and claimed to be sober at the party. Who to believe?

Exactly, but I think a lot of women genuinely believe it.

Just recently, ,y wife has a friend, shes single in her 40s. There's a high end bar/restaurant near us that he's claimed shes been roofied there "multiple times. (yet she still goes there)

Not on dates, just there with friends. And I'm just like how do you think this works? A complete stranger somehow intercepts your drink, drugs you, and then hopes you pass out at the bar and become a zombie so you can be raped?

Or did you maybe just have one too many strong cocktails and a light dinner to fit in your outfit and you blacked out?

Which is more likely?

Women dont seem to understand "alcohol math", if you're a woman and have like 2-3 strong Martinis, that's like a guy drinking 8-10 beers.

She did do quite a bit of drinking in the hours before she got to the frat, though.

Interestingly, we -- or at least I -- have seen little to nothing on how she ended up at the frat. She was out drinking with her sorority sisters before that. I'm assuming there were text messages exchanged. I don't think she just showed up.

It's not confusing at all. They had a ribald night rivaling X movie scenes. Later on some special interest convinced the young woman that shame is a misogynist artifact; that exposing her humiliating behavior to the world would be uplifting for womanhood.
Others, when unwholesome deeds were exposed to them, did not counsel the young woman for her betterment but cravenly chose to expose the events and her for misandry and their own fifteen minutes of fame.

Yep. Sometimes there is not a broader meaning to people doing stupid shit that is both immoral and quasi illegal (ketamine for example).

This is not a tragedy in a common sense because all of them (other than the guys that got randomly texted or the guy that stuck his head in the room and left when he saw what was going down), were complicit in the bad decisions made. No one was killed, no innocent kid was born/aborted from this unholy union, and it has more or less slimed those involved and likely the institutions involved in the whole mess--Cornell, the sorority, and the frat involved.

I am always bemused in these instances where suddenly we go into hysterics over things that have existed since the dawn of time, in moral times, and in immoral times. Sex, youth, and intoxication equalling bad decisions have been around since we were around campfires in caves.

394 I graduated from Cornell 25 years ago and was in a fraternity. In no way would I want to attend there today given how radical the university has become. That said, the fraternities seem to be nothing but a liability at this point and probably long overdue for accountability. I'm not judging whether any of this was consensual or not but they've always been out of control.

395 As a woman who was a teenager in the 80’s, we put up with a lot of stuff that today’s young women would be shocked to hear.

I’d get felt up walking to classes, boys would cat call and say gross things. Lots of drunk behavior by both guys and girls. We laughed it off.

We learned as young ladies to deal with it. If a slap and a stern “knock it off “” didn’t work, we enlisted our brothers or good “guy” friends to explain that if the unwanted behavior continued, there would be consequences.
Young women are not strong and powerful today. They are all victims and refuse responsibility for their choices and actions.

These girls’ mothers have failed them if they did not explain the real world.

And I told my daughters if you are raped, go directly to the hospital and make a police report. Anything else is not gonna fly in a court of law.

The Morning Rant: The United States Senate: Theater Of The Absurd

punk-monkey.jpg

The klown kar that is the United States Senate regularly belches forth a gaggle of meticulously coiffed morons in $2,000 suits who spout carefully crafted non sequiturs and focus-group-tested punch lines about the topic de jour. Then, without another word they pile back into the kar to be driven to a corporate cocktail party to drink $300 bourbon and try to f*ck the hottest lobbyist.

The Senate has always believed its own press, but the current group of sub-wits we have might be the least impressive in history. At least as far as intellectual heft and the ability to craft and pass good legislation. At fund raising and graft they are without peer!

Senate Leadership In Both Parties Dragging Feet On Using Force Of Law To Rein In Flock

Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley opened an investigation into Flock cameras and held a hearing on the mass surveillance technologies. None of the technology CEOs, including Langley, appeared for the hearing.

Hawley did not respond to the DCNF's question about whether he was frustrated with leadership's lack of response to Flock cameras.


He did not respond because he has no interest in doing anything substantive, because he is a hack, whose motivation is pecuniary, not legislative. His popular reputation as a fierce questioner at hearings is true, but that ferocity does not extend to anything else! He is the Republican equivalent of Chuck Schumer, but without the clout!

I wonder whether his reticence about Flock is connected to their large lobbying budget?

Flock tracks your license plate. We tracked the $2M it spent on lobbying.

The company spent nearly $1.3 million between January 2025 and July 2026 on federal lobbying and at least another $1 million in statehouses across the U.S., according to OpenSecrets’ federal lobbying data and an analysis of lobbying disclosures across all 50 states. Flock has hired lobbyists in dozens of states – often former government employees passing through the political “revolving door” – including in places where weak disclosure laws mean spending totals are not publicly reported.

This is why Flock seems to be a juggernaut, barrelling down the road, destroying what is left of our civil liberties. Their lobbying efforts are bearing fruit...even with Republicans who pay lip service to the Constitution and the Bill Of Rights.

I wonder if Senator Hawley recalls the text of the 4th Amendment? You know...something about protection against searches?

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

It's adorably anachronistic in this world of total surveillance, but it is an anachronism that needs to return to the forefront of our lives. Our politicians are of course venal and grifting in the extreme, but the plain text of our governing document needs to be thrust in their faces...they need to be reminded of it when they scurry back into their offices and cash those lobbyist checks.

So forgive me if I am wholeheartedly in support of anyone who feels like taking the law into their own hands and cutting down those Flock cameras, and short-circuiting the burgeoning police/surveillance state that is being created around us!

Based on location coordinates from Flock’s own database, the map shows more than 170,000 cameras, plus more than 130,000 accompanying gadgets that play a part in the company’s expansive American surveillance network.

An argument I use specifically for police:
End qualified immunity. Completely.

Force cops to have to INDIVIDUALLY carry liability insurance. Same as other professionals.

Too many claims and the insurance company will drop them. No insurance, no work. No ability to change departments.

Most cops go through their entire careers without being sued for civil rights violations.

Those that are legitimately sued?
There's no reason the city/citizens should have to pay for it.

And maybe, just maybe, it'll force cities and counties to hire qualified individuals.

46 Flocks are called such for a reason. There is never one by itself.
Flocks are always positioned in groups allowing one to observe the other. There is no way to disable one Flock without being observed by one or more others. The cameras usually flock together in groups of four or more.

54 One of the core problems with congress is that interest groups will give you money and votes if you side with them against the general public, but the general public is usually too uninterested in using its voting power to punish politicians for siding with interest groups.

And to add to the mix having one party being 100% communist assholes makes this worse.

So the way the system should work is that if people want to get rid of flock cameras (or any similiar issue) they'd first vote in the primaries against supporters and then potentially in the general election as well

55 "Flocks are called such for a reason. There is never one by itself.
Flocks are always positioned in groups allowing one to observe the other. There is no way to disable one Flock without being observed by one or more others. The cameras usually flock together in groups of four or more."

70 In early October 2026, a bipartisan wave of federal legislation hit Congress.

Senator Bernie Sanders, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Senator Jeff Merkley introduced the Ban Flock Act to completely stop federal agencies from using ALPRs.

Concurrently, Senator Josh Hawley announced the Stop Flock Abuse Act to enforce a 10-day maximum data deletion law and ban facial recognition on the devices.

Due to this pressure, Flock CEO Garrett Langley was forced to alter course. Flock now implements strict search auditing and mandates a default data retention drop from 30 days down to just 7 days.

So it seems to me the socialists - not Hawley - can claim, "First!" for at least a partial win against Flock cameras before mid-term elections.

Yep. Judges and prosecutors should not have immunity personally from illegal searches and seizures carried out on their orders. One of the problems with the 4th Amendment is that the remedy of illegal searches is suppression of evidence. That helps the guilty but the innocent get no such relief. They get violated and cannot recoup what they have lost (privacy, information, etc.).

I would also create a separate court of claims for illegal searches and seizures from the ordinary criminal justice system. Judges cannot police themselves obviously so you have to set up a different system where they cannot control it. One where the prosecutors and the judges approving and stamping these orders have to face the music if they do something illegal.

Our current representative system has set up bad incentives on purpose that protect wicked prosecutors, judges, and law enforcement. They have no skin in the game and face little if no consequence for illegal actions while ordinary citizens do.

It is time to splinter and remove the powers of the 3rd branch to be tyrannical and support others in their tyranny. Easiest way is to divide their power.

Our representatives are a mirror (as is our entertainment, education, etc.) of our current society. And in such a fallen world, you have to realign incentives away from what is current. Donors with money have essentially bought our Congress critters and out of state donors in particular. E.g. someone like John Ossoff has raised 80-90 percent of his money from out of state for his senate run. That means the home folks have little or no hold over him and elections are not enough--assholes can do a lot of damage in a six year term (Tillis is an example).

And this system and those political donors offer an irresistible way to get politicians and their families generational wealth if they direct some of the taxpayer money to whatever legislation that the interest groups want.

If GOP holds the Senate, replacing at least four of the five above and maybe even adding someone like Rogers in MI, the Senate shifts remarkably rather instantly.

Yeah, in theory anyway.

This is why I'm not 100% against Flock. We literally let millions of undocumented a-holes and criminals into our country with no way to track them, We have millions of muslims with no way to establish meeting patterns to might show us who is plotting against the US. We have leftist groups committed to violence that are being organized by Chinese, Russians and the WEF among others. We have easily approached military bases all around the country.

If if if they were or are being used properly, I'm not really against their use. We know they've been abused, so if legal to do, those folks should be punished.

If I had to guess, all it's going to take is another mass casualty attack against us or massive jihad riot and Flock cameras will be everywhere forever.

I'd like us to set the rules and circumstances for their specific use, instead of pretending that spying on pre-schoolers is the same as spying on radical mosques for "fairness".

Flocks are being used to track illegals.

They are placed at other points of travel in the same manner for the same reason, entrapment of illegals.

Mail in voting is down 18% from 2022.

This is a pattern we've seen in OH, VA, GA, and NC. A mix of states with different levels of important races.

Blue districts tend to be further down than red districts.

The post-hoc explanation is that Democrats decided, en masse, to forgo mail in voting this year in favor of in person early voting. Why? Because of the news items from a a few weeks ago where Trump destroyed the USPS or something.

Well, OH started in person early voting today.

121 I'm always amazed how little money it takes to buy these whores off.

$2 million TOTAL in lobbying dollars, and probably 80% of the country is against Flock cameras? It's like what a single Senate campaign spends in a few days.

Of course, it doesnt help Trump is on the record saying he "likes" Flock cameras.

Which is why anyone with an interest in the matter should take copies of the content on any anti-Flock sites they find, and be ready to post it on other channels if the need arises.

Welp, we know a percentage of mail in ballots are fraud--it is the easiest way to game the system. And USPS personnel were involved in the scam as were the ballot harvesters from vacant lots and USPS dead letter offices when delivered to places like Wal Mart.

It is possible that this decline does not represent real people at all but simply reduced fraud due to fear of getting caught. I think this is why that judge issued the decision in S. Florida in time for the election. Dems want illegals to vote and for all their cheat mechanism to feel safe.

And I suspect if you go through all these federal judges' communications and meetings, you will find that Dem judges issuing these ruling have illegal ex parte backchannel conversations with people like Marc Elias as to what and how to rule plus when.

Same with that recently revealed and illegal collusion of Minnesota federal district court judges on immigration-all but one were participating in a scheme where they shared information among themselves ex parte as to how to rule on specific cases rather than ruling on the evidence presented in court.

OT story - was up in Osage Beach a while back. A woman, I assume, was walking down a sidewalk dressed in a contractor size trash bag ( I think it’s called a burkah ), pushing a baby carriage. Anyway, a guy was walking his dog on the sidewalk approaching her. The trash bag became agitated, not knowing what to do. The guy just kept walking past her. His dog was fascinated by her apparel. Entertaining.

135 9 Be prepared for the usual defense of the surveillance state:
"If you're not doing anything illegal, why should you care?"

Be prepared for my response: “beside the point.”

More to the point:
The local SO has my name because I have an LTC
TX DPS knows all about me because they issue the LTC
The Feds know all about me because of clearances and I still have a commission

So fucking what? Flock still has no business butting me under surveillance.

This is why I'm not 100% against Flock. We literally let millions of undocumented a-holes and criminals into our country with no way to track them, We have millions of muslims with no way to establish meeting patterns to might show us who is plotting against the US. We have leftist groups committed to violence that are being organized by Chinese, Russians and the WEF among others. We have easily approached military bases all around the country.


Those areas were not under surveillance by cameras or otherwise before Flock came along?

139 You're not even trying to use logical arguments against flock, you're just using the leftist tactic of stirring up hate against what you're against, and smearing anyone who disagrees with you as being bribed.
People with phones complaining about tracking?

Leftists are just as smart and reasonable as anyone, but they let their emotions overwhelm them on specific topics. Flock is doing that to rightists. The problem is that it distracts from the real problems. If privacy in public is really important, why no complaints about phones...Ring cameras...traffic cameras...drivers licenses...
