Daily Tech News 19 December 2025

Top Story

  • The unfortunately named Paris Buttfield-Addison bought a $500 Apple gift card at a major Australian brick-and-mortar outlet.

    Turns out the card had already been redeemed, and when he tried to redeem it, it was rejected.

    The outlet agreed to provide a replacement gift card, so all was well.

    Then Apple terminated his account and bricked all of his devices. (Hey.Paris)
    My Apple ID, which I have held for around 25 years (it was originally a username, before they had to be email addresses; it's from the iTools era), has been permanently disabled. This isn't just an email address; it is my core digital identity. It holds terabytes of family photos, my entire message history, and is the key to syncing my work across the ecosystem.

    I effectively have over $30,000 worth of previously-active "bricked" hardware. My iPhone, iPad, Watch, and Macs cannot sync, update, or function properly. I have lost access to thousands of dollars in purchased software and media.
    You might be thinking at this point that this guy is an idiot for giving a single company complete control over his personal and work life in this way.

    You would be correct.

5 I read that post the other day from Dr. Butfield-Addison.
Felt sorry for the guy the entire time I was reading it.
Apple has put him in a difficult position, and it's even worse they won't explain exactly what went wrong and keep giving him the runaround on how to resolve something that is locking him out of his data and his developer account.

Then I read his About page just to see who I was reading, and got to this at the bottom:

© Dr Paris Buttfield-Addison · I live on the land of the muwinina people. Sovereignty was never ceded.


I'm starting to see why this guy seems to completely trust B.S. from larger entities than himself, and why he has a hyphenated last name.

6 This had to be expected, but Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney, one of the most vocal critics of Apple’s walled garden, pointed out that Apple’s new App Store policies in Japan are still unfair to developers. “They’re charging a competition-crushing 21% junk fee on third-party in-app payments, and 15% for purchases made on the web,” Sweeney posted on X. “They’re imposing a new 5% junk fee on all revenue from apps distributed by competing stores, and intend to surveil all transactions within them using a mandatory reporting API,” the exec continued.

Well, he's not wrong.

Apple is gonna Apple and get their vig.

I'd love to know how somebody is cashing them in without having access to the card (so would Apple, apparently).

Epic is its own flavor of scummy. The want all the retail cut for themselves, but they have no intention of actually competing on the merits with existing platforms. So they went around buying exclusivity deals with publishers to monopolize games onto their platform in an effort to force people to switch to them.

US suspends green card lottery scheme after Brown shooting

President Donald Trump has suspended the US green card lottery scheme in the wake of a mass shooting at Brown University last week in which two people were killed.
The suspect, a Portuguese man who was found dead on Thursday, entered the country through the diversity lottery immigrant visa programme (DV1) in 2017 and was granted a green card.

53 Greetings and good morning everyone. The day had an interesting start. I turned Winnie out in the backyard and while she was occupied, I went to my car to put the food for today's party in it.

I get to my car and the motion-activated floodlights were on. OK...maybe it's the local wildlife paying us a visit. Nope. It was Winnie. The gate had been blown open and she was standing around looking puzzled. Thankfully, she came up to me quickly and I got her back in the house.

So padlocks for the gates are on the to-do list.

So what's the backstory on the Portuguese murderer?
Posted by: Quarter Twenty


Failed physics graduate student at Bruno twenty years ago. Greased the proper palms to get Resident status. Bummed around doing fuck all for two decades. Someone saw him and tailed him for a short time prior to the murders, and then ratted him out once his webble-like appearance was posted. Offed himself in a storage locker after authorities got his name, et cetera from the car rental company.

Here's the tell -- three names. The bad ones always have three names.

100 The suspect, a Portuguese man who was found dead on Thursday, entered the country through the diversity lottery immigrant visa programme (DV1) in 2017 and was granted a green card.

The DV1 Program is an abomination to God and Man. Literally.

The world has spent untold billions of dollars in all kinds of psychological, sociological and anthropological studies, experiments and other research.

We know what happens when you have tribes mixing it up.
We know what happens when you inject hostile cultures into an otherwise homogenous one.
We know what happens when you dissolve a sucessfull credal society with those not only outside the camp, but hostile to it.

The idea of "assimilation" demands a Best Case Scenario where the foreign tribe drops their identity and merges with what is to them an alien identity. Except now, we are an Identity nation where it isn't just ethnic and family tribes, but whole new arbitrary and perverted distinctions.

Yet they deliberately set upon a plan that was absolutely guaranteed to weaken a society in many ways - with zero upside except for those who profit from chaos.

There has to be a league of Portuguese-Ammericans, largely silent since the days of that one pool table gang rape case, who will speak out on the backlash they're about to suffer. We no doubt have a large hidden reserve of anti-Portuguese bias just waiting to be revealed. 'Watch This Space.'

What would you say the chances are for NCIS: Providence? Young FDR had a scandal there, in 1919.

Homeless Brown Resident Genius just became the new archetype for street people, perhaps deservedly so. I have not been boring you with tales of my homeless employees, but suffice it to say that Bob Dylan (or was it Silliphant, or Genet, or Francois Villon?) wasn't just a-woofin' when he wrote "to live outside the law you must be honest." What a script treatment!

Man Dies of Rabies After Receiving Kidney from Organ Donor Scratched by a Skunk

In what the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) called “an extremely rare event,” an adult Michigan man became infected with rabies following a kidney transplant. According to a CDC report, the man received a left kidney from a deceased donor in Idaho in December 2024. The procedure went perfectly, and the patient made a full recovery, but just over five weeks later, he started experiencing worrying symptoms.

The unnamed kidney recipient first started experiencing tremors, leg weakness, confusion, and urinary incontinence, but things only got worse. Within days, he was hospitalized with fever, difficulty swallowing, signs of hydrophobia, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction. He soon had to be mechanically ventilated because he couldn’t breathe by himself, and died a week into his hospitalization.

Former NPS Superintendent Responds To Controversial Entry Rule At Arches And Zion National Parks: "The Time Has Come"

America's national parks are becoming increasingly popular, with over 330 million visits recorded in 2024 alone. As more travelers head outdoors, the National Park Service (NPS) has been experimenting with different entry and reservation systems to manage growing crowds.

That's what federal and state officials discussed recently during a meeting hosted by Utah's Public Lands Coordinating Council. At this meeting, officials revisited the idea of implementing timed entry systems at Zion and Arches National Parks to manage congestion during peak travel seasons.

While state leaders have expressed hesitation about expanding timed entry—particularly at Zion—a former NPS superintendent argues that some form of reservation system is becoming unavoidable as park crowds continue to surge.

One week until Christmas. Have you watched many Christmas movies yet? You're probably aware of the "Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?" debate. But how about "Is Home Alone a Christian movie?"

Annual reminder that Home Alone is a Christian movie.

Watch this scene very carefully, where Kevin is drawn to the beauty and warmth of the church.

As he walks inside to "O Holy Night", he hears the words "Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!"

A sanctuary candle passes across the foreground, indicating that Christ is present inside the church.

Kevin then has an encounter with a Christ figure: Old Man Marley. Kevin makes a confession to him, then shakes his hand and we see a bandage on Marley's hand.

It's never explained why his hand is wounded, but earlier in the movie we saw that his hand was actually pierced ALL THE WAY THROUGH — like the nails driven through Christ's hands on the cross.

At the end of the movie, Kevin cannot save himself from the burglars, and so Marley appears again to rescue him.

Home Alone is a Christian movie.

That's just Cartoon Physics. The waitress didn't know they were too heavy for her to carry, therefore she could carry them. Like when the Coyote runs off a cliff, but doesn't fall until he looks down.

64 Home Alone is one of the all-time great Christmas movies, but I wouldn't call it explicitly Christian. It's more about the culture of Christmas celebrations in America in the 80s/90s.

That said, while my favorite part of the movie as a kid was Kevin booby-trapping the burglars, today I would watch it just for the church scene.

111 Adam Purple was an activist and the builder of a "guerilla garden" on the Lower East Side at Forsyth Street. The city had taken down a block of brownstones and just left the rubble.He and his followers cleared the land and built a 15,000 sq. ft. garden. The city eventually wanted the land to develop and he fought them for years. Eventually, the city won.
His followers had stamps made of purple feet and these little purple feet were all over Manhattan, all leading toward the garden site. Maybe millions of them. I walked across town alot in those days and the footprints were everywhere until they wore out. Purple and his wife Eve rode tricyles with a trailer to Central Park to collect horse droppings for the garden on the bridle trail.

The guy would have got away if they had explained which was "the right" door out of the hallway.

"Have you watched many Christmas movies yet?"

On Tuesday, we went to the theater for a big-screen showing of Scrooged. Our group of five had the theater to ourselves, alas. Would have been more fun with more people. Only problem was, the audio was poor. After the movie, we mentioned this, and an employee told us that theater had a blown speaker and he would turn up the volume for the later showing. Did not offer us a refund or free popcorn.

It was okay. Had most of the dialogue memorized. Surprised that, even after mostly annual viewings, there were parts that were still moving.

First saw Scrooged in its first run in a crowded Chicago theater. Appreciative audience.

You remember that news guy infamous for shouting "stop the hammering"? Realized Frank Cross (Bill Murray) did it first.

437 So, here's a theory (hard to prove with guy dead, but here goes)...

Guy felt wronged in some way that he was not the Physics Wunderkind that the MIT guy became - aka, that guy stole his life.

So, 1st, he goes to Brown to get revenge on the school that forced him off the path = grades, whatever - and picks the classroom where it all went wrong

Then he drives up to MIT and actually murders the guy he thinks stole his life.

Very narcisstic and almost delusional, but would fit a motive to both shootings.

And the big promotion and adulation MIT guy recently got set it all in motion...maybe as early as when MIT guy was in the running...

You only need reservations if you're using the campsites, otherwise you just pay the entrance fee. And Vets can get a pass that waives the entrance fee entirely.

Sure the campsites are busy because it's a crowded park, but if you live near enough just go for the day and head home.

Yes. And some sort of anger at, I assume, being kicked out of the Brown program he did not finish.

I read (briefly) that the MIT professor got some sort of promotion and maybe that set him off. Since they went to the Portugal univeristy together and came to the USA for grad school on student visas in 2000. By 2001 this jerk was no longer at Brown, reasons tonight unknown.

Obviously an unhinged, narcissistic sociopath with a long grudge.

What got me was how the entire state and Brown University are in denial that "they" caught him. When RING and rental car video did, thanks to the homeless guy. The President is nervous, as she should be, for the lack of cameras in that building.

Yeah, when I approximate π to that many places I want to round up to 7 since the next few digits are 53589793… so the 6 although correct seems off if we’re cutting it off there.

Posted by: rhennigantx at December 18, 2025 11:13 PM (gbOdA)

Same academic program in Portugal with those dates. Came to grad school in the USA under student visas in 2000. The shooter dropped out of Brown in 2001 (or was kicked out). Moved to Miami.Applied for and got a Green card in Sept 2017.

Came back to Boston in October of this year. Rented a car in Boston and changed plates often. Got into the physics building at Brown, that staff have complained about randos doing without ID, and had an altercation with the witness (the homeless guy?) in the bathroom. He later followed him to his car and got the car ID.

After the Brown shooting he returned to Boston and killed his fellow Portugal classmate in his home. Had rented the storage unit for months in NH.

The RI police/FBI did not have his name til last night. He was dead when they got to the storage unit...it took time to ID his finances last night as he was smart enough to have a certain possible European Sim card that they could not track easily.

Not to be dismissive of Ella but there was another person shot and killed at Brown. A young man who was a brain cancer survivor. Why him? Maybe she was just another innocent victim.

Overstayed and then eventually got permanent residency in 2017. Or that's the current story.

I imagine his life after Brown was a lot of minimum wage under-the-table jobs in Florida, with no marriage and lots of drudgery...and then he finds out his friend is up for a huge job promotion...and the plotting starts...

IF she was shot 10 times I don't know why. That is, so far, rumor. Don't know, but horrific to think about for her parents.

Also it is still unknown what he was in Miami, if he had a family.If he was a homo, commie,etc. If he hated Jews, etc. More to come as FL is now involved.FL won't lie.

Regarding the Charlie Kirk murder, unless rhennigantx is listening to Candace Owens, it was plain from the first day why the killer killed him. Due to Kirk's feelings about gays and trannies...and, now, as we know: furries. Buck Tooth Trannie wants to be a martyr for their cause. Kirk was killed for his freedom of speech.
It was known for weeks or more about his schedule and this ugly faggot planned it out.

He only had an overstayed student visa...if you aren't legal, what can you be working? And he had no US degree - it was all international, at a time whe Physics degrees (post Clinton admin) were already kinda worthless.

So they changed their lineup a few times, and wound up with: vocalist (female), electric bass (playing lead), acoustic guitar (playing rhythm), keyboards, drums. And often a full orchestra.

353 @336...wasn't that hard as there is an amphitheater on campus and that's where Charlie was seated. Not Jews.

I can see a critcal look at this mess at Brown and MIT, but I have followed the Kirk murder and local news since it happened. It was not a conspiracy and his own wife says the same.

I listened to the RI press conference and part of the MA one. Once the President of Brown said he was on a student visa from Portugal it clicked. Until then it was all over the place on wth happened.

The furry had been a hunter since he was a child. He took his grandfather's old rifle as he figured forensics could not trace it to him. He wanted his furry lover to be impressed, along with the furry friends. A gamer. Full scholarship to college (Utah State) and dropped out after one semester.

Ususally when this happens it is because they can't fit in or have issues living away from him (gamer). He thought he was the most brilliant person in the room type of nerd. Planned it out. Unfortunately his face was identified and his parents saw him and confronted him that night.

Kirk's talk of gheys triggered him and his furry friends. It is as simple as that. He thinks he will get off. I doubt it.

The Brown University shooter, Claudio Manuel Neves Valente entered the United States through the diversity lottery immigrant visa program (DV1) in 2017 and was granted a green card. This heinous individual should never have been allowed in our country.

In 2017, President Trump fought to end this program, following the devastating NYC truck ramming by an ISIS terrorist, who entered under the DV1 program, and murdered eight people.

At President Trump’s direction, I am immediately directing USCIS to pause the DV1 program to ensure no more Americans are harmed by this disastrous program

Think of how many are here, originally on student visas, then green cards (as this jerk was from 2017). His student visa lasted a whopping year then he left.

We'll know more from FL as to his "religion" and state of mind. It sounds like he hated that he failed to achieve what the MIT professor friend from Portugal did. The question also remains as to why he left Brown in 2001.

How brave of them. Like Parkland in FL where they were too scared to enter the building. And Boss Hogg was riding his bike to the scene! GAH

There is nothing on earth that scares me like school shootings. Since Columbine when my sons were in HS. I pray daily for our grands' wall of protection and good health.

This Portuguese bastard fired 40 rounds in that classroom. Which, according to the press asking the liberal President of Brown, was not only without cameras but had no security at the doors entering the building and staff complained. Most doors you need an ID badge. Any random person could walk in and did. It was a physics building and he was familiar with it from 2000-2001.

It took her, however, to put the pieces together. Until then people had no idea of the connection with this Miami guy and Brown. She had a nervous tic throughout the conference. The RI governor kept interrupting to say stuff.

Now I wait for real information from Florida. Where he worked. Ghey or married? Religion. Politics. He was here still on a green card since 2017.

I can relate a story that may shed light on the source of the cookie problem.
My uncle decided that he was going to make donut drops - donut batter deep fried but without the toroidal shape.
They came out with the symptom you describe: hard as rocks.
Turns out that he followed the recipe, except for one detail - he didn't realize that there is a difference between baking powder and baking soda.

434 I had a tree come down last year that blocked my way out via car.

I called out to work and went outside and found a couple neighbors out there. Scratching their heads. Hmmmm.

A couple guys got out various sizes of chainsaws, I got my loppers and we got to work. More folks showed up and we had hot coffee and campstove fired up and breakfast burritos in no time.

Took us half a day and we cleared our street amd stacked a shitton of wood.

436 Kindltot, I'm not chainsaw-trained. We *have* one, but I'm not gonna get out there with it.

I will take a recip saw to some branches maybe, but none that would cause it to roll. The trunk is a couple feet above ground due to the rootball being pulled up. Trunk diameter is about 3ft.

Eh, I think this one is best left to the pros.

438 JQ, we were fortunate when the derecho hit that anyone in town with a pickup and/or chainsaw were out helping people as soon as the sun rose. For at least the next two weeks, I heard chainsaws going from sunup to sundown. Our church's youth group wandered around, handing out water and volunteering their young muscle.

Be careful of the stuff that hasn't fallen yet but is barely hanging on.

You gotta know your limitations, true.
Start with the branches and then move down from the top.

In 2020 we had a bunch of trees that came down with the root-ball ripped up out of the earth, and my wife had me cut them at the trunk-end first because she wanted to watch the stump stand back up on its own.

Wildly dangerous, true, but she enjoyed the spectacle.

This past fall, Brown's new policy began admitting foreign students on what they called "Need‑Blind Admissions." It means that a student's ability to pay isn't considered in deciding whether they're admitted. Their costs will be covered 100%, and they will have money put into an account for spending.

Books promoting Holocaust denial, Palestinian resistance, and dismantling the West, appeared at a pop-up library on campus this year

488 Jimmy Steward of Its a Wonderful Life fame, was for real. He joined the Army Air Corps in Feb 1941 as he saw war coming. He holds the record for fastest advance in rank from Private E1 to full Bird Colonel in 4 years. He flew B24s on multiple combat bombing missions in WW2. In the 1950s he landed a B-58 Hustler - a plane so difficult to land that only the very best Air Force pilots were allowed to fly them. Their high landing speed meant that the smallest error on approach would turn the plane into a large lawn dart. He also flew B-52s, and flew as an observer during an Arc Light B-52 bombing raid in Vietnam. He retired as a Brigadier General; the highest military rank ever achieved by an actor.

I usually agree, but my lady cat rocks the collar and tie bit I have. And that doesn't bother her a lot.

Pet strollers for cats actually make some sense as the cat can't slip a leash and flee and hide if something scares it. It isn't like most cat walks exercise the cat physically much since they sniff every bush as they go.

Of course they only paid around $20 something for the massive amount of silver they bought while their illegal spoofing was holding the price down, so they will make out like bandits even if their calls become active.

122 112 Silver spot at $65.11 per oz. JP Morgan has got rid of its paper Short positions, and their only exposure is if the Silver spot goes to $70 per oz by the 23rd. They have many active calls at that price where they have to sell actual silver to people at that price point. Of course they only paid around $20 something for the massive amount of silver they bought while their illegal spoofing was holding the price down, so they will make out like bandits even if their calls become active.

133 That Isaacman story had a lot to do with Trump and Elon’s breakup and makeup. Isaacman and Elon are very tight; he’s “Elon’s Guy”. Trump nominated him at first to run NASA; then for some reason Trump changed his mind, dropped him, and that’s about when Elon quit Doge and got all pissed off and said he would start a third party.
Well that fizzled, and Trump reconsidered, and he changed his mind on Isaacman again and called him back; and now Elon and Trump are all buddy buddy and best friends again.

Unfortunately that is the majority of dogs in shelters. I know a guy, though, if you are serious about a rescue. He normally rescues Shibas from breeder auctions, puppy mills, etc. but he has also saved basset hounds, and blood hounds, beagles. You will have to speak with him, pass his background checks etc. If you don’t have experience with Shibas, he probably won’t place one with you - they are difficult dogs and truly not for everyone.

I went to purebreds when lots of rescues wouldn't let me adopt cats because I'm a dude.
Posted by: Oldcat at December 18

That is insane. I don’t have an issue with people buying a pure bred anything- if you want to know what you are getting and there are certain traits you desire, a pure breed is how you get there. But I am adamantly opposed to puppy mills and back yard breeders. If you want a specific dog, make sure you are getting the best version, even pet quality, from an ethical breeder. You will pay more, you will have to wait because ethical breeders have waitlists and litters are sold before the breeding. But the dogs will be health tested, the parents will have proven themselves, and you will be getting from someone who truly is invested in protecting their breed.

227 I have two Belgian Malinois neighbors - lovely animals but in no way are they suitable for their elderly owners. They are locked in a fenced in back yard much of the day and get very very little exercise. The owners don't play, walk or work them. Sometimes when I'm outside, the dogs will jump the fencing and come on over. I play with them until I'm tired and run them down to the ravine for 30 minutes or so but they need much, much more.

If I throw sticks for them, they'll drag back a tree and then just look at me.

231 POLICE STOOD OUTSIDE WHILE BROWN UNIVERSITY SHOOTER ESCAPED

While students screamed and victims lay shot, Providence cops stood outside deciding where to park.

Their radio chatter sounds like a bad improv skit.

One officer talked about needing a day off. Another didn’t even know what building they were at.

Meanwhile, no one had info on the shooter, and no one was rushing in.

The suspect eventually slipped away. 10 were shot. 2 died.

Brown University and the police failed, and now families are furious. And rightfully so!

It wasn’t just chaos. It was incompetence with a badge, and the price was paid in blood.

When I got my first siamese, the lady i bought him from had three queens that had dropped litters. She brought them in a laundry basket while I sat on her couch. She began putting them in my lap by the hands full. They all took shameless advantage of the momentary freedom and zommied off. Except one. He rolled on his back, presented tummy, and meowed at me for some scritches. Brought him home. Sweet sweet little cat. Never had another one as sweet as him. Aboit ten years later our other cat died and he was mourning badly somwe got another kitten. Siamese again. I sat on the floor of an open outdoor play space whike the six kittens zoomied around. The papa cat came over and sat with me, then the momma did too. One by each the babies came by and one chose me. We took him home.

I miss them both even twenty years later.

MegaRoy was adopted from a service. He was bigger than the others, so people didn't want him. He's a good boy.

Splotchy chowed up one day eat___ the chipmonks and squirrels i had been shooting off the bird feeder with the pellet gun. All scrawny and starved. He broke into the crawl space and started living on the hvac for warmth. We fed him real food regular like and a year later he let Smash pet him. Two weeks after that he moved in. Maybe 10 or 11 when he chose us. Nice good kitty. All he wanted was regular chow, a warm place to sleep, and a cuddle with scritches. He had a vey nice rest of his life.

If i get lonely enough, i'll get another senior kitty to love that has been abandoned by his family. I just cannot guarantee a kitten a full life of his due to my own age now.

384 372. Yes. I have paused the Providence, Rhode Island police of the year award program posing as a press conference. No info on the shooter other than you Portuguese student from Miami who attended Brown university. They found a bag with two weapons in it that match the crime scene. Didn’t tell us what they were or anything else about the guy. Too busy congratulated each other on how great their police work was.

I want to figure out who the nerd glasses guy is.

So, to be clear, they had blurry video yesterday and no idea who they were after. A homeless guy figured it out (the homeless guy was the hoody guy, I think).

They had NOTHING. Today they are proud. They should be embarrassed that they had no real film of the building. Good thing I am not a parent with kids there.

No mention of WHY this guy was there to shoot Ella in THAT classroom.

What happened to MIT professor? No connection now?

Oooh, distractions and critism not helpful. Yada.

Good policework prevailed. Right. No clue you had til a homeless guy.

I have my doubts until it is explained what a Portuguese guy from Miami was doing in this classroom. Please explain.

Oh, lawsie. The liberal president now congratulating, bringing safety, bringing closure and relief. Oooh, Mustafa was picked on. Yada. Liberal swishing.

Yes, we would like to know something. Ah...enrolled from 2000 to PhD program in physics. Finally a connection. Withdrew 2023. Only in physics classes in the rotting building without cameras.

For reasons unknown he unloaded 40 rounds on this classroom and poor Ella.

Interaction in a bathroom with the homeless guy.He followed him out of the bathroom (I guess the homeless guy was a student?). He believed he did not belong there.

He said nothing OR made a barking noise in the class.

The media is giving them some fits. Great questions! they cannot answer. Thrown at US Attorney for press conference at 10pm.

He is ahead of his skis he said and breadcrumbs developing. Regal governor butting in a lot.

His storage area. Rented car in Boston. Inside the storage unit. blah. There is a connection to MIT professor. FLew into Providence in October or they don't know. Governor keeps taking over.

Unless he had on 3 jackets, the one photo does not look as fat, but whatever. I reckon so.

A second individual who was identified in proximity to the suspect came forward after Wednesday’s press conference and helped “blow the lid” off the case, Rhode Island Attorney General Peter Neronha said.

“When you crack it, you crack it. That person led us to the car, led us to the name," Neronha said.

436 Governor interrupting again.

1) Over stayed student visa from 2000. Last class 2001 at Brown.
2) From Miami. Changed plates on car frequently
3) I am confused about car, as they claim he rented in in Boston. Maybe when he came in October as he is in a short sleeve green polo shirt.
4) He and MIT physics professor went to the same university in Portugal. MIT professor obviously finished school unlike this guy.
5) Over stayed visa by over 20yrs. Applied for green card in 2017 and received "permanent resident status" in September 2017
6) Not staying why he left school in 2001 but "they will find out"
7) I think a random guy, not a student, the homeless guy? had a dispute with him in a restroom. He knew he did not belong in the building with no cameras (which the President defends).
They admit that RING and car rental videos alone helped identify the shooter
9) The green card guy got a weapon. I guess legally? Non comprende.
10) Governor spends a lot of time butting in. Name not known til yesterday and track the car. They decided not to give his name out today.

Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at December 18, 2025 10:40 PM (WONhk)

437 So, here's a theory (hard to prove with guy dead, but here goes)...

Guy felt wronged in some way that he was not the Physics Wunderkind that the MIT guy became - aka, that guy stole his life.

So, 1st, he goes to Brown to get revenge on the school that forced him off the path = grades, whatever - and picks the classroom where it all went wrong

Then he drives up to MIT and actually murders the guy he thinks stole his life.

Very narcisstic and almost delusional, but would fit a motive to both shootings.

And the big promotion and adulation MIT guy recently got set it all in motion...maybe as early as when MIT guy was in the running...

Shots were fired at a Christmas event in Chicama, a town in northern Peru, local media reported. Many families and children were present at the public celebration when the incident happened.

Police said the shooting started suddenly. People ran to protect themselves as officers rushed to the spot to bring the situation under control.

Early reports say a local councilwoman may have been the target, but officials have not confirmed this. Several children were reported injured.

That was spot on. He has the kant down beautifully, which isn't hard because that is just Dem talking points passed out to every news reader, "journalist" and paid tik tok stooge. But somehow, he did it even better than them. Dang, son, you are pretty talented.

143 "police chief leading the investigation into the Brown shooting has a nephew who was recently sentenced to 22 years in prison for running a fentanyl ring in Rhode Island as his uncle was rising through the ranks of the police department."

I have three nephews that are all leftist retards, and six "grand-nieces" that will probably be raised as Karens. But indeed, for leftists, they tend to follow the tribe.

I do have a little hope that the four nieces of the "Christian Home Schooled" nephew will perhaps be influenced enough by their fellow home schoolers to have a chance at not being sold out to the leftist cult, but since they are all female, the odds are reduced.

DOJ Eyes Civil Rights Action Against Biden Officials Who Weaponized Government Power to Punish Political Enemies

Head of the Office of Civil Rights, Harmeet Dhillon, said that the raid on Mar-a-Lago, made without probable cause, might have been a criminal act.

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon told Just the News on Wednesday that federal and local officials involved in the prosecutions of President Donald Trump may face legal action if the Department of Justice identifies a conspiracy to deprive him or his followers of his civil rights.

"The Department of Justice is at the heart of considering these issues right now, so I can't really talk about the specifics, but in general terms, yes," she said on the Just the News, No Noise television show.

"The Civil Rights Division and the DOJ generally do have the tool of a criminal conspiracy statute for conspiracy against rights, and this dates back to the start of the Ku Klux Klan, and when the Klan and its predecessors used to go after people, and they could involve, sometimes local law enforcement to do that," she said. "And so we have the ability, if we can prove a conspiracy to violate someone's civil rights, that that could be a criminal matter."

...

"That also goes for lawyers who leak and betray confidence as a breach of privilege, and for people who violate their oath as attorneys, they could also face bar sanctions if there's a bar referral after an investigation like that," Dhillon explained.

"So, I would say all of those things are on the table for lawyers and DOJ officials and others who conspired with them at the state level, state prosecutors, state police and so forth, who conspired to violate civil rights. And it could also include executive branch officials from the first administration who knowingly conspired and orchestrated a violation of federal civil rights."

The four Republicans who signed on Wednesday morning and pushed it to 218 were Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., Rob Bresnahan, R-Pa., and Ryan Mackenzie, R-Pa.

All four of them represent competitive districts that could make or break the GOP's narrow House majority. Democrats have been slamming each of them as complicit in the impending lapse of the funding, which first passed in 2021 under President Joe Biden in a bid to cap premiums for "benchmark" plans at 8.5% of income. ...

"House leadership then decided to reject every single one of these amendments," Fitzpatrick said. "As I've stated many times before, the only policy that is worse than a clean three-year extension without any reforms, is a policy of complete expiration without any bridge. Unfortunately, it is House leadership themselves that have forced this outcome."

It's possible this was Failure Theater from Johnson.

Update: I assume this is the car rented by the shooter, found abandoned in New Hampshire.

Kamala! Harris spoke about this definitively to Kimmel recently:

“To give you an answer that will not satisfy your curiosity, I will tell you, we, perhaps to our damage, but we strongly and rightly believed that there should be an absolute separation between what we wanted as an administration and what the Department of Justice did. We absolutely adhered to that and it was right to do that.

The Justice Department would make its decisions independent of any political or personal vendetta or or concern that we may have and that’s the way it worked."

The manhunt is ramping up

"They have not found; but they are on the track."

"Yes, that the usual phrase; I am quite familiar with it. When the police is at fault, it declares that it is on the track; and the government patiently awaits the day when it comes to say, with a sneaking air, that the track is lost."

Doesn’t matter if the shooter isn’t Mustapha. The reason why Brown deleted their promotion of Mustapha is because he is evidence the university is in violation of their settlement with the Trump admin.

The fact that @BrownUniversity spent more time covering up for a Muslim foreign born student employee than time they spent actually looking for the shooter shows that Brown is more focused on keeping their federal funding than getting justice for victims who were murdered on their liberal campus

I wonder why this is not a public holiday...
Posted by: runner


President Trump issued an executive order Thursday declaring Christmas Eve and Dec. 26 as federal holidays this year.

The order will result in federal agencies being closed and employees excused from duty, next Wednesday through Friday, as Christmas Day is already a federal holiday. Trump noted, though, that agency heads “may determine that certain offices and installations of their organizations, or parts thereof, must remain open and that certain employees must report for duty” on Dec. 24 or 26.

I think the Mar-e-lago raid was idiotic, but I'm not overwhelming comfortable with prosecution. Firing and blackballing those responsible should be sufficient, especially and including the judge who signed the idiotic warrant. That is who I really want punished at the moment - judges who agree to this sort of lame brained shit. ASNY judge should have looked at the request and demanded some sort of overwhelming proof of a crime prior to signing it.

Updates on Brown Shooter: Federal LE, Not the Bumbling State and City LE, Identified the Suspect; the Person of Interest "In Proximity" to the Shooter Is a Homeless Man Who Provided Details About Killer

i didn't think the witness would be able to add much here. The shooter was wearing his Covid Coward Crime mask, after all.

But Jordan Schachtel's sources say he helped identify the shooter.

Note it's federal agents who cracked the case, not the bumbling Brown security officials or the multicultural disaster of the Providence PD.

Hearing from govt sources that there is a major breakthrough in the Brown shooting case and a person of interest has been ID'd by federal law enforcement. Apparently it's NOT the Hamas encampment leader Mr Mustapha. Nobody has been ruled out but they have a hard ID on one person.

Local news reports that LE is also investigating any connections btwn the Brown incident and the targeted killing of an MIT professor two days later an hour down the road.

Sources believe the Brown attack was not targeted, though the MIT incident clearly was. Very strange.

Compilation of sources and reports say: the "person of interest" is reportedly a homeless guy who lives in the area, but he provided critical info on the shooter. Police have a DNA match and there should be news re arrest very soon on this front.

The shelter-in-place order for Brown University was lifted on Saturday. That same day, just an hour down the road, the suspect on the loose reportedly murdered renowned MIT prof Nuno Loureiro.

I don't know how the president of Brown stays in office after this tragic debacle.

Update: Car rented by Brown shooter also seen near slain MIT professor. Or at least a car of the same make and model (and one assumes, color, which is a good bet because every stupid car is silver now).


BTW, college "journalists" sure know how to frame a story:

A masculine woman who either had her boobies removed in revenge of being born wrong, or has them wrapped down. From the size of her girth she should have something. At the very least, moobs.

Fat ole thighs. Mean eyes. Possibly born female.

93 We almost had a tragic shooting back in 2018 at the university where I work.

It was actually one of our campus cops who was able to intervene and capture the would-be shooter before he could go on a rampage. A student tipped him off, I think, and he followed up and discovered the would-be shooter had several firearms, hundreds of rounds, and was gearing himself up to enact his plan when he was caught.

I sat on the grand jury for that case. He was clearly a very troubled man, possibly schizophrenic.

Or just convert to decimal for all records from the beginning and never show time.

We had to commute during the Civil War times to another city and stay in a motel for two nights. Four of us friends sort of studying but wondering why. Stressful. Hysterical laughter when not having stomach pain.

Two day exam. The proctors told hundreds of us in this old college classroom to not look up. Pencils ready. Go!

One obese proctor slipped on the old oak floor behind me. She could have been quite dead, but no student nurse raised their heads to see or much care. She landed with quite the loud thud and vibration.

Later, several of my classmates asked if I tripped her, which is how much they thought of me. I did not!

I did well on the boards, which were not really a test of my vast knowledge as I scored the highest in psych, which I hated and never understood.

282 Universities bring a lot of people to a city and a lot of high-paying jobs (especially thanks to the government bankrolling the universities with the student load takeover). Hence, any prestigious university is a concern of local politics.

I think this is where universities get off treating the campus as a quasi-jurisdiction. And cops know that the politicians above them are going to cater to the universities. So, the cops that play along are going to get campus cases.

It makes a corrupt kind of sense.

I learned my combat skills with my brother, who was two years younger. I stopped fighting him when he hit puberty and was stronger than me. We fought over the remote control, otherwise were buddies. No hitting or fists, but other combat was fine.

I have fast reflexes due to combat with him. Did not hesitate to try to kill a frat boy who goosed me in college. I said within a second, "You bastard!" at the top of my lungs and chased him near a public park for 50'. At the time I did not cuss much, so it was an instant reflex.He ran faster than me or I would have pounded his head on the concrete.

Australian Counter-Terrorism Police Ram a Vehicle Containing Five Islamic Men Heading Towards Site of Sunday's Hannukah Slaughter

Authorities believe two cars loaded with Islamic men were headed to the scene of the Hannukah slaughter to commit further terroristic violence.

They rammed the car because, it is reported, they believed they had to stop the car immediately.


An unmarked police car rammed a vehicle carrying a group of men believed to be travelling towards Bondi beach, possibly planning a "violent act".

New South Wales police said there was no connection between the counterterrorism operation and the investigation into the Bondi terror attack on Sunday, in which a father and son opened fire on Chanukkah celebrations, leaving 15 dead.

No connection, huh? None at all?

You're ready to declare that so soon?

Well, that's standard practice in Australia now. One of their top "journalists" declared that the attack on a Hannukah celebration, attended by Jews, by a pair of bearded Muslim men "had nothing to do with religion."

nothingtodowithreligion.jpg

The Super-Karen "journalist" is full of "facts" that she knows without any need for investigation.

The ABC's global affairs editor has sparked controversy by claiming Sunday's deadly attack on a Jewish festival at Bondi Beach had 'nothing to do with religion'.

Speaking on the ABC Politics Now podcast on Tuesday, veteran reporter Laura Tingle insisted the terrorists' actions were unrelated to their faith.

Her comments came despite mounting reports Naveed Akram, 24, and his father Sajid, 50, specifically targeted the Jewish celebration, and that homemade Islamic State flags were found in their silver hatchback.

The ABC itself reported that Naveed had previously been investigated by ASIO in 2019 over alleged links to an ISIS cell in Sydney.

Podcast host Patricia Karvelas said the pair 'absolutely are radicalised... they were targeting Jews. It is antisemitic, but we are ascribing all sorts of things, right?'

Tingle hit back: 'Their actions are not based on their religion'.

The veteran journalist also dismissed claims by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Australia was targeted for recognising Palestine.

'I don't think that really stacks up,' she said.

'I can't quite see how recognising Palestine leads to greater antisemitism, because if you think about it, it reduces the anger in the pro-Palestinian lobby I would have thought, and thus should actually reduce the temperature.'

Uh-huh. Either that or it convinces they that their low-level insurgency is a winning strategy, given the cowardly appeasement offered to them, and encourages them to ramp the jihad up still further.

Either/or.

An ABC spokeswoman defended Tingle, saying her role is to provide analysis.

'Laura Tingle is a senior and highly experienced journalist whose role as ABC Global Affairs Editor includes providing her assessment and analysis,' she said.

'The conversation on the podcast concerned terrorism and radicalisation and the comment was about separating religion from radicalisation.'

The two terrorists had ISIS flags -- Islamic State flags, that is.

Nothing to do with religion, huh? The actual terrorists say different.



Heavily-armed tactical officers in an unmarked police Land Cruiser drove into a white Hyundai hatchback carrying several men who were travelling from Melbourne in the direction of Bondi beach, local media said.

Police said tactical operations officers had contained two cars in the Sydney suburb of Liverpool after a tip-off that a "violent act was possibly being planned". Seven men were detained.

'Laura Tingle is a senior and highly experienced journalist whose role as ABC Global Affairs Editor includes providing her assessment and analysis,' she said.

'The conversation on the podcast concerned terrorism and radicalisation and the comment was about separating religion from radicalisation.

43 I think the way their "reasoning" goes is that Islam is a foreign religion, and they can only conceive of religions as a proxy for race and ethnicity and not as a set of beliefs and prescriptions with real world outcomes when observed. Brown races like Islam are equal to white races - and by equal to white races I mean more exotic and therefore better - so therefore drawing commonalities and observing statistics about the behavior of brown races is "racist." "Racism" is the worst sin one can commit and the actual murders on Bondi Beach are minor when compared with people thinking unapproved racist thoughts about these brown races.

YES. Exactly. They say "You" can "leave MAGA too" and it will make you feel better like it made me feel better.

The jihadis and "white supremacists" are why they claim to want the police state.

But of course they are just a convenient reason to get the powers. And since they are the nominal reason why would they ever stop them? I mean hell in the US most of the supposed white supremacists ARE the government.

243 White liberal women do not respect the males around them in Western society so they seek the dangerous in other cultures just like some women have a thing for criminals.

There was an experiment where men having the usual friction in a relationship with their women folk were advised to be total cucks and back down to avoid any altercations or arguments.

The women ended up totally disrespecting the men and the relationships deteriorated into a pure abusive relationships where the women despised the men.

On the other side is the spectrum is guys who regularly decorate their women with cuts and bruises.

There is no middle ground. The successful relationship exists when its founded on Biblical Principles with both sides loving God more than they love their mates.

Relationships outside of that, the couple are usually lying or its a unicorn and needs to be captured and studied.

Yep.

And unless every Western nation deports and bans every Muslim and Third World alien from their country, this will only get worse and worse until Islam has conquered the West.

Considering no one in a position of power in any Western nation has even identified the fact that Islam is the enemy of civilization, the West - including the USA - is well on its way to being conquered.

This is THE only issue that matters for the future of the West. Recognizing that Islam is evil -- akin to Naziism, if not worse -- and must be removed from every western nation.

And yeah, Islam is "political" but imo, it IS also a "religion" since they are committed to the death to their (cult like) beliefs in some higher power.

London is now an Islamic city and the priority of politicians there is not to protect their citizens from crime and rape and murder, but to protect them from... Andrew Tate.

Every time I watch one of Paul Joseph Watson's videos about the Islamic conquest of Europe, it's an overwhelming feeling of anger and depression. Because the same attitudes that allowed it to happen in Europe exist here in the USA and are allowing it to happen here.

Tingle. You KNOW she's been picked on/bullied all of her life and is now striking out at all of us with her big glasses. And gas baggery defense of eeslam.

I can't speak for this nitwit, but I would have changed my name. I was born with an upper crust British surname, that is in the Domesday book. I am that fancy. I married a Polish guy whose last name has the same number of letters. Had I hypenated it, well, my poor children (whom I stuck with long and traditional first names). It would have sounded like the discovery of a bacteria. Hello! Call me all my names, but at least it is not Tingle!

Plus, her outfit is retarded and rather pitiful for me to take her seriously at all. It gets on my nerves; that I must have inherited from my grandmother who could make sew evening gowns and suits from simply looking at them.

Maybe a random jihadist took pity on her and she loves them, until she doesn't.

317 It's not so easy with Islam. Since Islam involves domination of people.
Posted by: Axeman

---------------
I'm on a roll today, so another hobbyhorse:

Islam is a slave religion. The purpose was to convert and dominate large conquered populations. They then send money upstream to their conquerors by various means, but their main purpose is their slave labor - more conquest.

Conquest at the time, as now, was about removing all assets, creating territory to siphon off taxes, and having increased military for more conquest. Islam does all that but it does it by convincing the conquered that it is a "religion" and that they will receive their reward .... later, after they are dead.

They are all slaves doing slave labor. Their ancestors were either conquered, or raped, or forced to convert. They are a massive races of conquered slaves destroying the world.

So Vance turned to her and asked, "Isn't it your job as a journalist to go to where a story is happening, personally talk to the people involved, get as much evidence as you can and then present THAT to the public?"

They understand it perfectly, because they share the same goal of the destruction of Western Civilization. Allowing the goat-fucking mohammedan savages freedom to destroy accomplishes their goals as well, without the commie cocksuckers having to lift a finger.

The difference between them is that the mohammedans have a plan for what comes afterwards. Ironically, that plan calls for elimination of all lefty commie cocksuckers as soon as the mohammedans take power. Ask the commies in Iran... oops, you can't, because they all either dropped everything and went into exile in obscurity or they lost their heads. Literally.

Posted by: nurse ratched

Classic bell curve distribution---the average is 60-65, that does not mean all Somalis, particularly those with genetic admixtures, have a 60-65 iq. There is also the Flynn effect in the US (although waning) versus native Somalian populations.

They're smart enough to know how well the racist card works.

Also, IQ tests do not measure cunning. Just general abstract knowledge skills.

Perhaps their deficiency in the abstract thinking makes the "general welfare of the society" not even a factor. So, they can 100% hunker down to what benefits them.

So too has the WEF trained and bought "leaders" to infiltrate governments and institutions (schools, universities, media, healthcare agencies) all across Western nations.

Yep. And there is no one in the West of any consequence who is even considering this.

Person of Interest Sought in Brown Shooting
Claim: Brown Disabled Security Cameras Because Left-Wing Groups Complained Their Criminals Were Being Photographed
UPDATE: Link to MIT Physicist Slaying?

Crimes which could then serve as a basis for expelling foreign-born terror-activists from the country.

So, the allegation goes, they pressured Brown into simply turning off their cameras, and Brown, of course, complied.

Before that: Supposedly they are searching for a specific person of interest in the terror shooting.

Of course they won't tell the public who they're looking for. It's standard police practice to withhold information during a manhunt so that the public cannot help you find the suspect.

Wait a minute, no, that's not standard police practice at all, is it?

A person of interest has been identified in the deadly mass shooting at Brown University, multiple sources familiar with the investigation told CBS News on Thursday.

Law enforcement has identified a person, and a search for that individual is underway, the sources said.

Remember, they put out a picture of a man seen "in proximity" of the actual suspect, asking for tips about who he was. Their hope was that this man might be a witness who could offer a description of the actual suspect, I gather.

So when they say "a person of interest" has been identified, they might just be referring to this witness, not the killer. The photo of this "in proximity" person of interest was a lot more useful than ones of the killer, because we continue to allow people to wear masks in public because Taylor Lorenz will cry if we don't.

Meanwhile, there is a claim that Brown deliberately disabled many of its cameras because left-wing criminal "activists" didn't want the police having videotaped evidence of their crimes, and their foreign-born Islamic agitators didn't want to be expelled from the country.

And then this literal wilful blindness enabled the killer to (so far) walk away from his crime, unidentified.

I don't know if this is true. Brown the cops claim that it's not suspicious that there are only a couple of videos of the terrorist killer because this building was on the edge of the campus, bordering on a residential neighborhood with no camera coverage.

Uh, okay, that's plausible.

What's the excuse for their being no cameras inside a school building? At the doors?


Meanwhile, "authorities," such as they are, are asking for video of the scene of the crime for a week before the attack. I assume the point is to see if they can find the killer scouting and casing the site.

If the cameras were in fact turned off, then obviously we won't have any new clues.

Except about the need to defund Brown University completely and deny all student loans to students there.

Update: h/t to JackStraw, a Rhode Island tv news report says that there is a possible link between the Brown shooting and the assassination of an MIT physics professor.

Note that this is just something they're investigating as a possibility.

But cops seem to be telling all of the media this. Even Groomer Network ABC.

An older friend of mine (yes there are people older than me) once got thrown out of a topless bar in Dallas; there was a disagreement with management over how good a comedian my friend was. The topless bar was owned by somebody named Jack Ruby. It was Jack who threw him out. The deciding factor was my friend noticed the revolver that Jack had on him. This was in July of 1963 before Jack and his revolver became world famous.

HIGH PRIORITY BREAKING NEWS ALERT: Brown University has conspired to facilitate a massive, university-wide illegal aliens undocumented students program authorized by Brown University president Christina Paxson and her obsession with DEI.

Paxson and the university have conspired to defy the Trump administration's immigration and anti-DEI policies and President Trump's executive orders. Paxson and the university have been devoted to protecting illegal immigrants even if it jeopardizes the safety and security of university students, faculty, employees and the surrounding communities.

Under Paxson's DEI dictates, Brown University evolved into a dangerous far-left Marxist environment overrun with Islamic ideology and antisemitic Jew hatred.

Even with fatso's mask there is technology to ID this killer from his eyeballs. I am pretty sure of this. Or I could be making it up.From driver's licenses and/or passports. Or I watch too much NCIS.

The only connection I see to this murdering rampage to the MIT professor, was that the teacher is of this class a Jew. She was absent that day, so the bastard shot the only conservative girl on campus, which was close enough.

Then went on to kill the Jewish MIT professor in MA. After some random killings in NYC plus the stabbing of the one man recently who is, you guessed it, a Jew.

IF, big ole IF, this is anti-semitism during Passover and Christmas including what happened in Australia, that is the connection.

141 What's the excuse for their being no cameras inside a school building? At the doors?

University of North Dakota, school with slightly more student enrollment than Brown University (and probably a much smaller endowment) not only does cameras and key card entrance controls everywhere, but can control all door locks, internal and external from a centralized security station.

Every building on all of the campuses (including admin) is 3D modeled and security can tell if the doors are being opened, closed, how long a door is opened and then entire campus can be locked down with a single command. Furthermore, on the display an actor can replay any camera, keycard and door control that happened over a period of time and replay it like a video recording the activity on the campus.

Alerts and alarms can be set for rooms that must remained closed and locked (will trigger an alarm if cleaning crew props a door open)

I don't think I'm giving up real OPSEC here, this is a state school in Podunk USA and it is copied all over the place. For Brown to do what they did, their legal team better have authority to write blank checks.

No different than where I worked. All the classrooms had self locking doors as did the offices with cameras galore in hallways and public buildings.

AFAIK we did not have cameras in the classrooms but our administration would be the last to tell us if they did. Introduces some legal issues with FERPA etc.

No, it's not.
Anyone familiar with campus security understands that one of their biggest problems is townies coming on to campus to assault and rob vulnerable, unsuspecting, high trust, students.

Many campuses have taken on fortress mentality with limited access to the neighborhoods outside campus, (which is difficult due to student housing and the usual mixed town/gown zone on the edges.

They all have cameras specifically focused on the borders.

A lot of this is due to Clery Act requirements for reporting on crime and security.

With cameras and enough infra red and pixels I can read fingerprints, face and eyes and build searchable templates from each modality - all while you are on the move.

Fingerprints are probably the most surprising. Eyes is the quickest and most discriminating.

198 The excuse I heard in a press conference a couple days ago for no cameras at the entrances and exits of the building: The shooting occurred in an older building that a shiny new building was grafted onto. The older section is on the edge of the campus. The new addition is on the campus-side of the old building. The shiny new building has all latest spiffy cameras and security stuff, but there hasn't been enough money to upgrade security stuff in the older building section.

Not verbatim but close to the above.

And another thought just occurred to me. Feebs may be letting Providence PD apparently lead because they are using the sekret cell and computer comm intercepts, imaging from airports, border crossings, etc. from government databases.

Every state has a 'fusion' intelligence center where feds, state, and local po po work and such things can be whitewashed as tips when the origin was a comm intercept or something like that.

Think I am joking, take a gander at stories dealing with Stingray (fake cell towers that conduct sweeps and intercepts all calls, texts, etc. in a vicinity) and local crime prosecutions. Sometimes the prosecutions are even dropped because governments do not want to disclose where the evidence came from.

=========

I'll have to admit, the media has been doing a credible job covering this. When the FBI SAC in Boston was being interviewed on the MIT assassination last night, the first question asked was whether or not it was related to the Brown massacre. The answer was "currently" no evidence connecting these two events. As soon as heard the weasel word "currently", I figured "highly likely".

If they are related, then this becomes an interstate matter, and if so, the Brown and MIT murders should come under FBI authority. Rhode Island, which, to the best of my knowledge is still a state, is proving to be rather problematic, currently.

Cops are allowed to issue material witness arrest warrants if they can persuade a judge that someone knows something about a crime. Same as any other evidence.

Courts have ruled that such is constitutional under the 6th because it allows subpoenas, etc. to bring in reluctant witnesses by force if necessary.

The Nuclear Phsysicist I think was someone the shooter came in contact with through being a student.

Mirrored sunglasses don't do a very good job blocking infra-red - iris scanners normally use near IR. It reduces image clarity, no doubt but that is why their are other modalities like face shape, thermal imaging, depth sensors, etc.

A person on the move actually helps reads where multiple snapshots can be run through algorithms to provide a more detailed image yielding better matching.

'The university’s president said the compact would undermine the government’s merit-based approach to funding research.'

Citing multiple concerns, Brown University on Wednesday rejected an invitation to join the “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education” that the Trump administration proposed.

The compact, initially sent to nine institutions, would require universities to make a number of far-reaching changes, including suppressing criticism of conservatives on campus. Of the original nine, Brown is now the second to reject the deal after the Massachusetts Institute of Technology." More followed.

Brown University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have several formal connections, including a graduate-level Exchange Scholar Program; the MIT-led NSF I-Corps Hub; Design Engineering (MADE) Program Partners, and the MIT Press and Brown University Library Book Series.

from their website,
"Dear university administrators and trustees,

We are human rights organizations writing to express concerns about campus surveillance tools and policies that have the potential to fuel attacks on free expression and academic freedom across the country. Since January 2025, the Trump administration has launched an aggressive campaign against US academic institutions, revoking international students’ visas and threatening universities with funding cuts unless they agree to suppress speech on campus. The president of Princeton University has described this assault as “the greatest threat to American universities since the Red Scare of the 1950s.” As university leaders take steps to defend their communities, it is imperative that data minimization, data privacy, and the dismantling of harmful surveillance systems are prioritized alongside other protective measures. Without immediate action, surveillance tools and the data they amass will be used to supercharge the virulent attacks on campus communities."

328 Here's what concerns me. I'm going to assume the shooter is a Brown student. I think the one student killed (studying to be a neurosurgeon) was the target. And, I think the shooter knows him well.

Then, I think Brown had an idea who it was, and that party is not in his dorm, missed finals (it's finals week up there) and they realized he took off.

If the MIT killing is related, then you're looking as a potential spree killer taking out people he has a problem with for whatever reason(s). THOSE are the type killers you want to have the public very informed about. And, it seems they are purposefully keeping it quiet.

In short...I don't think we're done with the murders. He'll have someone else on his list. And, I'd keep an eye out in Wash DC.

There was a rumor that the CCTV network in London had been turned off about the time Ukraine kicked off, with the side rumor that this was to set up for a Russian false flag.
London is heavily covered by CCTV but if it went off line I am guessing it is because the security service's Windows ME-based surveillance system got ransomwared.

HHS Moves to Block Hospitals From Performing Sex Change Mutilations on Children;
House Moves to Ban

HHS wants to stop the Jack-to-Jill Ripper surgeries.

The Department of Health and Human Services on Thursday announced a series of proposed regulations to block hospitals from performing myriad gender-related treatments on children.

The regulations would block surgeries, puberty blockers, and hormone treatments, which the department said "cause irreversible damage, including infertility, impaired sexual function, diminished bone density, altered brain development, and other irreversible physiological effects."

"Under my leadership, and answering President Trump's call to action, the federal government will do everything in its power to stop unsafe, irreversible practices that put our children at risk," HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said.

The House wants to criminalize the barbarous genital mutilation.

The House of Representatives passed legislation Wednesday night that makes it a felony for doctors to perform transgender surgeries and procedures on minors, despite heavy opposition from over 200 House Democrats.

The legislation, titled the Protect Children's Innocence Act, passed in a 216-211 vote, which saw 207 House Democrats and four moderate House Republicans object to it. Three House Democrats joined with their Republican counterparts to pass it.

The four House Republicans to vote with the Democrats are Reps. Mike Lawler of New York, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Mike Kennedy of Utah, and Gabe Evans of Colorado, while the three Democrats are Reps. Don Davis of North Carolina, Vicente Gonzalez of Texas, and Henry Cuellar of Texas, according to the Daily Signal.

I think three of those defecting RINOs also defected to join the Democrats in forcing a vote on extending the "temporary COVID Obamacare subsidies" by another three years. At which point, the "temporary subsidies" will be extended again, unless Democrats have big majority, in which case they'll drop the "temporary" lie and officially make them permanent.

36 Several European countries, including the UK, have either banned or severely restricted the drugs and surgical procedures for minors.

None of this has been widely reported on here.

Democrats and cuck Republicans always set the end of "temporary" money hand-out programs to coincide with POTUS or mid-term election years. It's a dirty racket.
Posted by: Gref

Senate already voted on the extensions, neither plan could beat the filibuster. So the House vote was meaningless without the Senate having 60 votes to agree. House also approved a health care reform bill not including the subsidiesl, 216-211 (not 111 as reported here), and sent that to the Senate as well.

Big Health Insurance is going to take the hit.

My F2M son came out in the late 1990s. While not angry I was incorrectly unsympathetic. A few years later in the early 2000s I came to my senses and gave full unreserved support.

After the early suicidal years, he matured into a stable young man complete with a fiancé. Trans/homophobia kills.

- Support fraudulent programs that use taxpayer money because it goes to their constituents
- Support higher taxes on you to pay for, well, everything
- Support compelling you to drive an EV, and will wreck the energy industry and massively increase your utility bills to do it
- Want to define what words you can speak, and jail you for wrongthink
- Support mutilation of your children to peddle the lie you can change your gender
- Want to arrest you at a school board meeting for pointing out their flaws and egregious abandonment of liberty
- Want to force you and your children to take medicine and vaccines you don’t need or want

111 > What’s the rationale for transing kids?

1. Old, fucked in the head trannies look in the mirror and know they will NEVER look the way they want because they went through puberty.
2. Marxian theory puts everyone into oppressor / oppressed buckets. EVERYONE. Leftists are primed to accept every single degradation of society as long as their thought leaders plug the action into this template. Tranny kids are oppressed, therefore anyone who objects is an oppressor.
3. People who hate western society use any tool they can to destroy it. Attacking core identities like family, marriage, children attacks the pillars of western society.
4. Unknown environmental factors have been causing a significant year over year decrease in testosterone, which has significant impact in behavior. This has been noticed for at least 60 years.
5. Unknown environmental factors have been causing autism. Autistic kids know they're different. They are deeply susceptible to being told changing X or Y about themselves will make them normal.
6. Pedos want access to kids. Normalizing talking to kids about sex gives them cover for grooming.

There are more reasons, but this is getting long.

Then there's the fistula between holes, which sounds like fun. When 1/2 commit suicide after the surgery...altho you won't find that statistic anymore online.

Do they put that on the surgical consent?

Or, for women, who have double mastectomies and hysterectomies at a young age and then change their minds a decade later and want children. Is that on the consent for the surgeries? Or having such a small penis (2") it is basically useless? Strap ons would be better, fake men!

And part of the insanity in all this is it has never been easier in history to be "more feminine" as a man while not having yourself mutilated.

A family member recently went through a surgery that required a long incision (and resulting scar) in the abdomen. It was pretty horrific, if what he said was true. I can't imagine voluntarily doing something much much worse -- and permanent -- to your genitals and ending up with a yuge gaping wound for a "vagina." People that go through this are seriously fucked in the head.

145 >>> 125 I understand that the mutilation of children must be stopped, but how is this not already illegal? If a school official were to conspire with a doctor, or even if a parent were to conspire with a doctor, to say “this child thinks they’re a pirate, we must chop off one of their legs and blind one eye”, I’m pretty sure this would result in serious jail time for every adult involved.

What a lot of people don’t know, or pay attention to because they vote like it’s a team sport, is that most Blue States are already usurping their parental rights under the guise of these types of issues. They’ve used abortion and gender mutilation as screens for that effort, and many of this states can discuss or be involved with these efforts and “gender transitions” without your parental knowledge. In place like NY, they are even doing things like moving away from CDC vaccine schedules and requiring them as a matter of state law. So, for example that HepB shot that does more damage then good, and was only added as an “equity”, that is to make people with HepB feel better, and is being removed. Yep, NY is going to take sure they put that poison in your newborn at birth.

Cons: To the extent it encourages virgins to try the shit for the first time, it's bad. If you've never tried it, don't! To the extent it makes minors more comfortable using it, that's bad.

Pros: It may possibly reduce the costs of enforcement and courts dealing with it. It may allow dispensaries to accept credit cards, which may lower the cash they handle, and make them less likely robbery targets.

Canada is much further down this evil path:
@bill_c10
This set a terrifying precedent for parents everywhere. A Canadian father, Robert Hoogland, was thrown in prison for trying to prevent his 14-year-old daughter from undergoing permanent medical transition. After schools socially transitioned her behind his back and courts authorized testosterone injections against his wishes, the state stripped him of his parental rights. When he refused to remain silent about the medical risks and the loss of his child, the government moved to silence him by force.
Hoogland was sent to prison for "contempt of court" because he defied a gag order that forbade him from referring to his child as his "daughter" or using female pronouns.

Pennsylvania Capital Star, 'Patients at Pa. hospitals fight DOJ’s demand for gender-affirming care records' University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia received subpoenas in June, September 25, 2025

The article begins, "Families of children who received gender-affirming care at two Pennsylvania hospitals are fighting a U.S. Department of Justice effort to obtain medical records and personal information about transgender youth.

The Public Interest Law Center in Philadelphia at the law firm Ballard Spahr filed motions Monday to quash subpoenas served on the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) in June."

The law firm is quite large and progressive. You may have heard of them, for instance: Press Release, The New York Times, Represented by Ballard Spahr, Prevails in Defamation Suit Brought by Sarah Palin, February 17, 2022

BTW, at the end of 2023, Mark Stewart stepped down as Chair of Ballard Spahr. He's the husband of US Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon, PA-D and the firm is also where she, reportedly, ran the Pro Bono unit.

He did the same in the government shutdown which some bitched about here. With a very narrow majority, Johnson cannot rely on punishing dissidents without losing control of the House altogether. And he sure cannot rely on the strong conservatism of teh Senate. So now the Murcows and Collins are SOL for ramming something through the Senate with the Dems and forcing the House to walk the plank. They now have to consider voting for or against the House reform bill if their insurance companies back home hope to see any more money.

Other island:
1/2 normal males with no homo or pervert traits
1/2 normal females with no lesbo or pervert traits

All good looking (I am the judge of this) and under the age of 40yrs old. Minimum age 25yrs. Given the same coconut and wooden spoon. Make your own huts. Cohabitation requests leading to marriage (one ordained minister to perform vows). Otherwise, do your thing in the jungle, but sleep on your side of the island unless married.

If a woman becomes pregnant and requests, she and her husband can be evacuated.

Otherwise, no medical care to keep it fair to Pervert Island, who are on their own as well, and weaving bandages from the coconut fibers, while using spit from berries for wounds.

At which point, the "temporary subsidies" will be extended again, unless Democrats have big majority, in which case they'll drop the "temporary" lie and officially make them permanent.

The ACA is heavily popular now because it's heavily subsidized. +30 favorabilty.

Really no different than figuring out which preacher, pastor, or priest is more concerned with the world than they are with the Lord's precepts.

A common tell there is excessively emphasis on Love and a lot less on don't do this things because they estrange you from the Lord regardless of his love. And sometimes the Lord, because he loves us, punishes as rebellious children when we do not follow his word. A person of the world is concerned with wordly things rather than eternal salvation so they tell the audience what they want to hear.

As I said above, I think it has to do with that they're politicians. Congress is mostly stratified between the raw ideologues in the Democratic party and the old-style Democrat-like politicians in the Republican party.

It's not that they dislike their Republican base so much, just that they want to ride the fence and don't care how upset that makes their base.

Thus the battle is between Marxist-like ideologues and fence-riders who don't think we should be so hasty.

I think MTG has turned more into a fence-rider than a true Dem-style ideologue.

It is to prevent other people who don't know one way or the other about the subject from listening to him, and being influenced in how they see the world.

Annoying Drunk Woman Harasses and Assaults Bar Staff Until She's Bodyslammed and then Ejected

Women didn't used to be like this.

Women didn't just violently assault men and expect to have some kind of Feminist Force Field that would protect them from retaliation.


San Francisco police revealed the identity of the woman whose booze-soaked rampage at an upscale eatery went viral this week -- and her tech employer confirmed she's been canned for the humiliating scene.

Her employer may be a tech company but she's no coder. She's just another idiot DEI hire.


Police identified Shireen Afkari -- listed as a marketing manager for the fitness app Strava and former employee of Credit Karma on a now-scrubbed LinkedIn profile -- as the woman who was caught on video taunting and pummeling staff at Hazie's before being body-slammed by a bartender and later tripping and face-planting on the sidewalk in the Hayes Valley neighborhood, according to KRON.


Officers arrived at 9:41 p.m. Saturday after Afkari, who was accompanied by a male companion, was dragged out of the restaurant after taking a swing at staff and violently knocking a phone out of another person's hands.

"He's f--ing harassing me," Afkari shouted at a bartender off camera before being hauled outside by Miguel Marchese, a staffer who later shared video of the incident on Instagram.

"Ooooh, he's a liar."

Afkari was arrested for public drunkenness and sent to county jail, according to cops.

She was fired. She was not charged with assault because the bar's staff, for some reason, declined to press charges.

I don't know what started her angry drunken rampage. If I were forced to guess, I would guess that she was cut off and decided this was "harassment."

Update: That guess was right. From Judge Elric the Blade:

Ace, that is exactly correct. From some more recent reporting:

Speaking to San Francisco's KRON4, Miguel Marchese, a bartender at Hazie's, who was at the centre of the ordeal, said the couple came in at around 9 pm and staff rapidly raised concerns about their level of intoxication.

"The night was quite chaotic, the couple came in, they were requesting dinner service," Marchese said.

"Initially, the server verbalized to me that she could tell that her table was not only intoxicated, but perhaps on some other substances and they were giving her quite a rough time and being quite verbally abrasive with her and then I do believe after that [the server] asked for the manager to intervene."

Marchese said the manager then removed cocktails from the couple's table and asked them to leave.

"He retracts her cocktails from the table, because I just made them, he brings them back and he simply tells me, 'they've had enough to drink, we shouldn't serve them anymore.' And then later, it just kind of spiraled into chaos," he said.


Her name seems to be Iranian/Persian, if you're wondering what great culture produced this Cultural Enricher.

Below, a still of her in the air as she's tripped.

That's probably why no charges were filed.

Actually, they did. My dad was a criminal defense lawyer back in the day, and he and his lawyer friends had quite a few female clients who attacked men (and other women) like this. Being drunk will make you do crazy things. You might attack someone much bigger and stronger than you. You might have sex with a donut. Never can tell ...

Is female violence worse today? Probably. But it's not something new.

One: "I am asking you to stop holding that device in my face, please."

Two: The next step is to slap the device out of the holder's hand.

If I were twit boyfriend I'd say adios, crazy frau, good luck! This was a warning, nitwit!

To be honest I figured she'd be weirder looking.As a normal person I can't imagine being this way and making such a fuss in public or private.

She was tripped as she was running down the street. I don't know if she was going after another victim or maybe trying to re-enter the bar, but someone stuck out his (?) leg and tripped the bitch. She face-planted and started boohoo whinin' and cryin'.

Unless the tripper was stopping her from committing an assault, he could be charged with assault himself.

I'm just saying, this might be why the bar's staff decided not to bother with charging her, worried that she would turn around and charge them.

But of course she will anyway.

56 Last week in Miami:

A doctor is in deep water and out of a job after, authorities said, an afternoon out for drinks led her to attack her husband and a Florida Highway Patrol trooper.

According to FHP, 39-year-old Gisell Mansur was arrested after she became violent on the Palmetto Expressway, spitting on a trooper and attempting to block traffic at one point.

Officials said it began on Tuesday while Mansur was having drinks with friends at the 94th Aero Squadron Restaurant Lounge near Miami International Airport.

After having too many drinks, Mansur’s husband went to the restaurant to pick her and a friend up.

According to the report, Mansur began arguing with her friend while they were traveling along the Palmetto Expressway near the West Flagler Street exit, at around 4 p.m.

When her husband pulled the vehicle over to intervene, Mansur reportedly became physically violent, kicking her husband in the face and later climbing onto the hood of their SUV. At one point, troopers said, she was also “sitting in the middle of the main roadway while blocking rush hour traffic.”

93 "I don't know what started her angry drunken rampage. If I were forced to guess, I would guess that she was cut off and decided this was 'harassment.'"

Ace, that is exactly correct. From some more recent reporting:

Speaking to San Francisco’s KRON4, Miguel Marchese, a bartender at Hazie’s, who was at the centre of the ordeal, said the couple came in at around 9 pm and staff rapidly raised concerns about their level of intoxication.

“The night was quite chaotic, the couple came in, they were requesting dinner service,” Marchese said.

“Initially, the server verbalized to me that she could tell that her table was not only intoxicated, but perhaps on some other substances and they were giving her quite a rough time and being quite verbally abrasive with her and then I do believe after that [the server] asked for the manager to intervene.”

Marchese said the manager then removed cocktails from the couple’s table and asked them to leave.

“He retracts her cocktails from the table, because I just made them, he brings them back and he simply tells me, ‘they’ve had enough to drink, we shouldn’t serve them anymore.’ And then later, it just kind of spiraled into chaos,” he said.

128 Women didn't just violently assault men and expect to have some kind of Feminist Force Field that would protect them from retaliation.

In part, because they used to see what men did to other men who went off the rails in public. The decline in warranted public ass whippings is a big part of this. Society has become too genteel, effete to function well. Law enforcement can address occasional infractions (usually after the fact
only) but not a general breakdown in public behavior. Public order has always depended on a combination of voluntary compliance and extrajudicial remedies for antisocial actors who won't voluntarily comply.

TL;DR version: Beat downs are the remedy, but an overly "civilized" society demands the state have a monopoly on such violence, which ends up meaning that bad actors effectively run things, because law enforcement is seldom on the scene.

Reader's Digest version: Bitch and her bitch man did not get nearly the ass kicking they deserved, and that's a shame.

157 I can speak to this..
12 years working as a bouncer in Chicago, I've seen some things.

As a rule we'd generally only place hands on a woman as a last resort. I almost typed that I only did once, but it was twice in 12 years.
Once of those times was my last time, I stopped a woman from stabbing another woman with the stem of a glass she just broke over the bar.
That was my last shift, I decided I was too old for that mess after that. I had to grab her wrist and knock the glass out of her hand.

Almost every time friends of the girls would get her out of there before we needed to perform a separation from the facility maneuver.

I did carry a girl out over my shoulder kicking and screaming until I placed her gently upon the curb or the street... once.

And always assuming the man is always the aggressor and hit first merely b/c he is a man.

Even though study after study shows that women instigate 50% of all physical domestic violence situation.
There's the Violence Against Women Act, where they get free legal aid.

There is a baseline beauty therein that has been buried beneath weight and western leftist debauchery and ugliness.

This example while not "hot" as you state has potential, one of the tragedies of western leftist cuckishness in the wake of the rise of radical Islam is we lost the outposts of some really great party spots on the edge of empire.

Look up pics of Tehran nightlife in '77.....some of the hottest women on Earth inarguably.

198 I sometimes miss those days of being a "store security agent" as we were called at Sears(RIP). I also helped out a friend who owned a bar being a card checker/bouncer. The adrenaline rush of "altercations" was both scary and sometimes fun. Street fights are very unpreditable from personal experience. Too old for that crap now.

She was definitely playing the "Let's you and him fight" game. But her beta simp date wasn't down for that. He either needed to push her back and take over the confrontation or tell everyone "Bitch, if you wanna start in on the bar staff, do it alone" and walk away.

Posted by: whig at December 18, 2025 01:34 PM (WDjG6)

They weren't really swept under the carpet. Phrases like 'beaten like a red headed stepchild' were well known, jokes about henpecked husbands and nagging wives, and Roman historians had a trope about wildly unchaste empresses to pair off with the perfect woman model.

Yep. "Hot" is not what I'd call her before her hissy fit. "Average" is noted from this former supermodel.

For a high-end bar, I'm surprised they didn't have a yuge bouncer out front manning a velvet rope. It's pretty standard practice. People tend to be more polite when they know there's a 6-6, 350 lbs ex-football lineman in the house.

276 Having been to many bars and clubs with many crazy bitches, I can say that the only way to win this game is not to play. If the girl is already that drunk and belligerent, you grab her and get her out of the place asap. Tell her whatever she wants to hear, but get her out. It's much harder to stop a fight when it's already happening.

Or better yet, don't let girls get that drunk or high in the first place. I host a lot of parties. All the girls know my rules: (1) have fun, consume what you want (I don't judge), but don't get really fucked up; (2) coasters on the impossible-to-replace marble table; and (3) no unattached guys.

319 "Women didn't just violently assault men..."

Here's my theory.

Men eventually gain an innate understanding of how far we can escalate conflicts because for our entire lives, the consequences of stepping over that line is violence. Women, being physically weaker than men, have similar lines, but they go much farther out, and their responses tend to be nonviolent because resorting to violence is a losing play for women since it has a good chance of getting you crippled or killed.

The problem is that we now have two or three generations of women raised on the girlboss mindset, which encourages them to act like men. They've grown up with movies where a skinny 90-pound woman fights an entire team of 250-pound men and walks away without a scratch. On top of that, you have those same two generations of men who've been programmed to think that hitting a woman, even in self-defense, is one of the absolute worst things you can do, on par with using a racial slur.

The end result is boss babes who've never had to worry about pissing a guy off enough to get punched the face rocketing straight over the violence line as an opening.

The Inflation Rate Falls As Trump Promises a New "Golden Age"

I turned off Trump's speech because it made me anxious. He was rushing through the script so fast he tripped over words and didn't emPHAsize key points to drive the message home.

But he did hit the points. The speech was about 20 minutes. I think he should have taken maybe 28 minutes to give the speech, adding in emphasis and pauses.


A fiery President Donald Trump on Wednesday night promised Americans a shock-and-awe push for affordability, offering a glimpse of his 2026 agenda to overhaul Democrat policies that have left housing and health insurance increasingly out of reach for working Americans.

"Tonight, after 11 months, our border is secure, inflation is stopped, wages are up, prices are down, our nation is strong, America is respected, and our country is back - stronger than ever before. We are poised for an economic boom, the likes of which the world has never seen," he declared in a nationally televised address from the White House.

In tone and delivery, Trump brought optimism to the 20-minute address and vowed to voters that they would soon see lower prices, higher wages and a brighter future. He also made clear he intends to inject himself onto the midterm elections ballot when Americans will choose which party will control Congress in 2026.

Woven throughout the speech were assurances that while many foreign issues have captured the Trump triage, America's kitchen table issues are his main focus.

At many points in the speech, Trump reflected back on a year prior, and the near-anemic economy Americans were suffering with, emphasizing that they can't afford to go back to the era of Democratic policies.

The speech was markedly and definitively "Trump." Senior White House aides confirmed to Just The News that shortly before the speech, the president tinkered with it and added his own fiery flair.

Maybe that's why there was stumbling over some words -- because he had just edited it.

...

Democrats lead Republicans on the 2026 generic ballot 48 to 45, but a change in prices could convince 74% of them that inflation and costs are no longer a problem, according to a new Echelon Insights poll.

Here's the first twenty seconds of the speech.

Trump may or may not have had advanced information that today's report on inflation would be a favorable one. (I assume he did.)

Not even CNN could spin it.

Inflation came in at 2.7%, the lowest in four years -- in other words, the lowest since Biden's policies began driving it sky high -- down 0.3% from the 3.0% mark in September.

"Experts" "expected" the inflation rate to be higher than 3%. They expected rising inflation, not falling inflation.

Bowtie Goebbels Tucker Carlson had announced before the speech that Reliable Congressional Sources had confirmed to him Trump would use the speech to DECLARE WAR ON VENEZUELA, which Bowtie Goebbels is of course opposed to. He has on Maduro spokesmen to assure his largely-foreign audience that Venezuela is a nice country that doesn't send Tren de Aragua terrorists to the US.


I saw a Bowtie Goebbels cultist declare that Carlson was SECRETLY RIGHT, because Trump really had planned to DECLARE WAR ON VENEZUELA but Carlson's brave disclosure of this before the speech forced Trump to change it.

Sure. Trump was ready to announce a war -- one of the most controversial things a President can do -- but Tucker Carlson saying so a few hours before the speech was enough to get him to back off the DECLARATION OF WAR.

Pathetic.

14 Perfect excuse to repost a tail end comment, ace.
This is from a market and investment watcher. He is arguing that for the moment the rolling average for CPI correlates to the gasoline futures market

Tom Luongo (Head Sneetch)
@TFL1728
2h
So, we finally get a CPI for November and it correlates perfectly with what we should have expected with the drop in gasoline prices.

The 4-month rolling avg. of the CPI has correlated directionally with the monthly closing price of gas futures since the run up to COVID. (see chart).

With RBOB Gasoline Futures trading @ $1.70 this morning. If that holds through year-end, we're looking at a Dec CPI (YoY) print of 2.3-2.4%. Coming into 2026 we can and should expect gas prices to further attenuate, the CPI to fall well below 2%, if not stall out completely, and wages to grow 3+% given the amount of investment happening.

Soon, copper and other tight supply commodities will be the driver of inflation, not gasoline, but we're not there yet.

19 "Democrats lead Republicans on the 2026 generic ballot 48 to 45, but a change in prices could convince 74% of them that inflation and costs are no longer a problem, according to a new Echelon Insights poll."

If that poll is even remotely accurate, then we should keep the House. I think given the modern map with so many gerrymandered seats, the Dumocraps need a generic ballot advantage of at least 5-7 points to change control.

It's unknown how the new TX gerrymander will play out, and who knows what FL will do.

But polls like this are good news. I'm still worried about 2026 because our side has too many lazy slothing lipids who don't see a need to vote.

He has on Maduro spokesmen to assure his largely-foreign audience that Venezuela is a nice country that doesn't send Tren de Aragua terrorists to the US.

Trump has never been the best formal speaker.

He can riff like a madman but if you put a teleprompter in front of him he starts reading instead of ad-libbing and his rhythm turns robotic and rushed.

He's gotten a lot better than he was in 2016 and his speech in Congress earlier this year was probably one of his best, but the man will never be our greatest presidential orator.

While I'd like to attribute that to dropping inflation. And, that may be part of it. I tend to think that the lowering fuel prices, dropping regulations, and increase in supply chain shipping (lowering hauling costs) plays a part in that as well.

This will be the primary issue in the midterms. So, I'm elated to see visible progress either way.

You would be wrong. If you read the actual orders, it is blockading internationally sanctioned ships from entering or leaving a port. In fact, a seizure order was signed by a federal judge before the tanker was seized and boarded.

Those flying without flags or without valid registration have no protections under international law from being boarded and seized or even destroyed and thus cannot claim the protection of a nation at sea.

And in the case of Iran, Venezuela, etc., if the nation itself commits violations of international sanctions, then the ships, planes, etc. of that nation can be seized as a matter of international law.

72 Inflation came in at 2.7%, the lowest in four years -- in other words, the lowest since Biden's policies began driving it sky high -- down 0.3% from the 3.0% mark in September.

The problem with this is many LIVs think when politicians talk about inflation its the same as prices. So if Trump solved inflation then prices should go to pre-Biden levels.

But that's not how inflation works. Thanks to Trump-enomics prices will increase slowly like they did before Biden, but it won't resolve Biden doubling prices during his regime.

Now there will be a-hurting for seniors' banking accounts (erosion of savings from less interest earned) and Colas (causing real purchasing power to shrink, forcing reliance on bank accounts and other assets).

If it wasn't Trump, it would not be.

"It's the economy, stupid." O was never supposed to win re-election showing us Carville's oft-quoted saying was right in '92 but wrong 20 years later.

AI Overview: Barack Obama was re-elected in 2012 despite an economy that was still recovering from the Great Recession, with a 7.9% unemployment rate on Election Day, a rate higher than when he took office. While economic conditions were challenging, voters did not overwhelmingly blame him for the state of the economy, and the trend was perceived as improving.

Key factors that contributed to his re-election include:
perception of improvement; inherited crisis; empathy and connection; effective campaign strategy, and economic models - which was all BS but for the press behind him and against anyone "R."

Polls often use the most lenient of standards in doing these sorts of polls. All adults whether they are foreigners residing here legal or illegal, felons barred from voting, and not registered to vote.

They usually do not do geographic weighting on selection either for such 'national' polling so using RDD, it can give too much weight to places like CA, NY, IL and less to places like TX or FL.

Polls are useful for trend analysis if they use a consistent sampling frame over time but less useful until registered voters and then likely voters screening of samples start appearing in July or so.

I believe I have read about the Secret Service investigating a couple of on line threats, and also the DOJ doing at least one prosecution. Do you not think that the murder of the NG female and shooting of her teammate a couple of blocks from the White House would have been an assassination attempt if the gunman could have done it? How long do you think the President could walk around in Seattle or Portland without somebody trying to kill him? A minute perhaps? Only lack of access to him is keeping him alive.

It doesn't mean he won't press the edges to get things done but Trump is probably the most law abiding person we've had in the Oval Office in many years.

In this case, Fucker's (outrageous) claim about Trump announcing a war (!) against Venezshita got him lots of attention and clicks. He almost surely already had his excuse ready for when Trump didn't announce a war.

This is all a game to these people. Yes, there are some true believers out there. I don't think Fucker is one of them.

Early in the WoT, Capital Hill Blue published an expose that American military personnel were torturing captured jihadis and there source was, according to them, a well vetted national security resource they had worked with for years.

Their story fell apart though when in the provided videos the supposed US military members were wearing uniforms made up from random services and eventually they admitted the story was false.

But...clearly this was a major propaganda effort. Someone made those videos and tried to get people that looked like US military. And then that was it. No investigation. No revelation of the source. Nothing.

Maybe Capital Hill Blue made it up, but I think they were just a friendly source to dump propaganda on. And thanks to Shrub no one did anything about it...

Nope. If we are being legal, niceties like the boats not flying under any colors being blown up or being an internationally sanctioned ship matter.

No more than machine gunning a bunch of cartel invaders coming into the US bringing a bunch of drugs means we are in a defacto war with Mexico or that seizing arms on the high seas that are being sent to augment a civil war in violation of UN sanctions is a state of war.

So just like Venezuela's Maduro is doing a fan dance to claim he is not involved in the drug trade sending death to others for money in other countries or doing business with sanctioned companies, etc., the US is using Maduro's strategic fan dance to cram it up his ass.

2) How do you think your neighbors are doing? - a large majority said they thought their neighbors were struggling.

Rush talked about the power of the media to shape perceptions - the economy was good, but most people thought the economy was in the dumper, even though they, themselves, were doing just fine. All because of the media doing then exactly what they are doing now.

153 About Trump's speech.
We all know he can be warm, funny, engaging.
So why would he deliver some fantastic news for the military, something that could be really heartwarming, in that tone?

I posit 2 things:
1) Trump has always redirected fire at himself, so that other's don't get attacked.
2) He wanted everyone to focus on the tone.

Because:
1) now they are not going to smear the military as "being bought off" by Trump; or "falling for a silly gimmick, 1776." Or worse, "why not the minorities, they're suffering too?"
2) They will ignore the other, just as important part: He has laid out his agenda for the next 11 months; more freedom, more prosperity, more America.

And the Dems are going to focus on the tone, how he's wrong, how bad things are.
While falling into Step 1: Get the Dems on the wrong side of the issue.
The issue is "who is going to fix this?"
And whining about Trump's tone answers "not us."

You would be wrong. If you read the actual orders, it is blockading internationally sanctioned ships from entering or leaving a port. In fact, a seizure order was signed by a federal judge before the tanker was seized and boarded.

Those flying without flags or without valid registration have no protections under international law from being boarded and seized or even destroyed and thus cannot claim the protection of a nation at sea.

And in the case of Iran, Venezuela, etc., if the nation itself commits violations of international sanctions, then the ships, planes, etc. of that nation can be seized as a matter of international law.

What polling picks up consistently is that a lot of voters are transactional--promise them government largesse, they say YAY regardless of the long term effects. Promise them cheaper crap to buy, "Yay", more jobs "Yay", etc.

They vote solely in view of themselves and perhaps their family and whether on the balance they are getting something from gov. Otherwise they don't care about a lot of issues that don't affect them.

Like Venezuela, Ukraine, the near war between India and Pakistan, murdered Christians in Nigeria and Sudan, or Ham Ass killing or being killed.

Mitt had a vision of the GOP that did not include the whims of the population at large. His supporters and confidants who had been running things were who were important not some upstart idiots getting over their station in life when his friends had been running the political and business end of the country. He didn't need some hillbilly or trailer trash to come try to direct the country since they were more suited to following orders and doing what they were told.

He turns 180 degrees and he's standing with Linda Hamilton and Arnold, with James Camron in the background as if they're on the T2 set. He turns 180 degrees and he's standing with Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamil exactly as they looked in the first trilogy as if they're on the Star Wars set. He keeps doing this for several scenes and it all looks perfect and seamless. I'm sure perfectionists and film students could find several glaring issues besides the obvious that these actors don't look like that anymore, but it looks really really good.

We're already in the territory of fake videos being almost perfectly convincing.

Well, in the US at least, it triggers a whole lot of power embedded in statutes since at least WWI such as being able to conscript if needed, mucho power to regulate wages and prices including rationing, augmented seizure powers for eminent domain for defense purposes, ability to expel or involuntarily detain persons with the enemy country's nationality without review, seizure power over enemy assets in this and other countries, and so on.

There is a reason Congress has not declared war since WWII and Truman in the Korean Conflict considered it briefly then decided against it, in part, because Congress was well aware of executive power increase during war.

Well, in the US at least, it triggers a whole lot of power embedded in statutes since at least WWI such as being able to conscript if needed, mucho power to regulate wages and prices including rationing, augmented seizure powers for eminent domain for defense purposes, ability to expel or involuntarily detain persons with the enemy country's nationality without review, seizure power over enemy assets in this and other countries, and so on.

There is a reason Congress has not declared war since WWII and Truman in the Korean Conflict considered it briefly then decided against it, in part, because Congress was well aware of executive power increase during war.
Posted by: whig at December 18, 2025 01:12 PM (WDjG6)

The draft was a thing until 1973 without a declaration of war.

It is also very important in terms of international law. Carter briefly considered asking for a declaration of war against Iran because, the theory goes, the Iranian government would be forced to turn the hostages over to a third country for transport back home. (That Iran gave the Vienna Convention of 1961 short shrift to begin with was probably why this idea never went forward.)

Ehhhhnt. You're equivocating.

You're saying obvious things, but your relationship confuses the levels and what an Official Declaration of War is.

Actions that occur in war and are "tantamount to war" are not "official declarations" (see the "police actions" of Korea and Viet Nam). Congress can protect its power to declare war by using its power to either confirm the actions of the executive within 90 days of warlike hostilities. If the President does not get his official Declaration of War, within 60 days, he must cease by the War Powers act.

I certainly did not know anyone in the family, but the main "sign" was in photos of Nick from childhood.

Sanpaku Eyes. In nearly all but one photo I saw of him, and then he's sneering. The poor daughter who found them looks stoned in a lot of photos. The only child who ever looked normal is the son who moved to Texas...he and his wife look normal in the family photos. His smile reaches his eyes.

Since Nick was in rehab from age 15yrs, and admitted to smoking pot at age 14yrs (and buying a hooker with his parent's $)...I think those were signs as well.

Pot exacerbates schizophrenia when a young teen starts smoking it. If I had to take a wild diagnostic guess, I think that is at least part of his problem, and was made 1000% worse with drug addiction and parental wealth and coddling.

What he did accomplish is he reframed the discussion the he is making progress in fixing the disastrous Biden years and has laid the ground work a vibrant economy going forward. Maintaining this framing and having it heard unfiltered by the electorate over the next 12 months is where the battle will be.

The Democrats and the Democrat media are going to pull out all the stops to reframe the reframe as an utter failure. Who wins the tussle likely wins the midterms. If the Democrats win Trump gets impeached, likely multiple times and his agenda mostly gets trashed.

Conscription is actually an executive power IF a war is declared whether Congress authorizes it or not. Dating back to the American Revolution according to court decisions. Same with taking civilian goods and giving an IOU in return.

The real reporting on inflation happened only when Trump got into office. Then people were allowed to know that the prices had gone up ~20% under Biden--not that the Demedia put it that way.

Then it was "Trump said he'd bring prices down--what's he doing for that? People are hurting (from the increase that "wasn't happening" throughout the Biden term).

The Cucker War with Venezuela thing reminds me of an old Bloom County story line. Bill the Cat spins a bunch of outlandish lies about the CIA to Bob Woodward while wearing a paper William Casey mask (this was when Woodward's book "Veil" on Casey at the CIA was a thing).

Bill: "And then, when I was at CIA we put out a hit on Bruce Springsteen"
Woodward: "Wow, this is GREAT!" *scribbles in notebook*

"Affordability" wouldn't even be a topic if the Biden administration hadn't been lying about inflation not happening, or small and temporary.

Also if the "Inflation Reduction Artifice" had actually been about reducing inflation.

The Morning Rant: Inflation!

punk-monkey.jpg

Inflation is a cold-hearted bitch. It steals our paychecks, and we will never recover the loss. Sure, compensation eventually catches up (mostly), but the gap between rising prices and rising wages is significant.

And inflation destroys any possibility of planning for many companies. How do you budget for next year or next quarter if you simply do not know how much your raw materials are going to cost?

Pricing competition becomes insanely difficult too! Revenue from today pays for product you sell tomorrow, but if inflation suddenly increases by more than you planned, how do you restock? You simply buy less, and...hope!

So this is good news. How the rancid whores in the media are going to spin this is anyone's guess, but decreasing inflation is a very good thing for the economy, and no matter how much they huff and puff and bullsh*t with the numbers, Americans are better off.

Inflation Cools to 2.7 Percent in November, Lower Than Expected

Price pressures may be cooling across the economy, with the 12‑month inflation rate slowing sharply in November.

The annual inflation rate eased to 2.7 percent last month—the lowest level since July—from 3 percent in September, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Economists had penciled in a reading of 3.1 percent.

The core consumer price index (CPI), which excludes volatile energy and food prices due to their noisy signals, also cooled to 2.6 percent from 3 percent in September. This represented the lowest reading since March 2021.


But even better than moderating inflation is this little nugget of pure golden deliciousness!

Tariff-sensitive items were little changed over the past 12 months.

The apparel index is up 0.2 percent year over year, while the new-vehicle index has risen 0.6 percent over the 12 months ending in November. Additionally, on an annualized basis, appliances have increased by 0.5 percent, smartphones have declined by 9.4 percent, and footwear has dipped by 0.1 percent.


And weren't we told by our betters that tariffs are inflationary? You know, those 26-year-old "journalists" who took one economics class in college and never attended because it was at 8:00AM and they were usually still high! The "journalists" and pundits confidently claimed that a one-time increase in the wholesale price of tariffed products would continue to push their prices up indefinitely. Of course no modern country has ever shifted revenue to tariffs so quickly, and the data simply aren't there to make anything more than a wild-assed-guess!

But they did it anyway, and it looks like they were just a little bit off in their predictions.

Nobody knows whether a tariff-based economy will function as well as President Trump has proclaimed, but the early indications are good, and the naysayers are being proven incorrect. Revenue from the tariffs is robust, which is also proving the President correct.

Last night's presidential address is an excellent start to the administration's focus on communicated to the American people what the President is doing to address inflation, employment, the return of manufacturing to America, the vanishing possibility of home ownership for many young Americans, and other economic challenges that we face.

I hope he keeps hammering home his efforts to redirect our economy toward Americans, and away from illegals, and the leeches of Europe. It is long past time!

=======

Tariffs barely have an effect on inflation, but if it's anything, it's deflationary.

It increases some prices which decreases demand which slows the flow of money, having fewer dollars chasing the same number of goods.

But it's small.

What really affects inflation is the Fed's power to increase the money supply, specifically M2.

15 None of these credentialed "economists" ever seem to understand the huge multiplier, both up and down, that energy costs have on an economy, and especially oil prices. Energy is a significant factor in every good manufactured and sold, and it can drive prices up as well as help them go down.

By trying to get rid of all oil and gas related energy production, Europe have locked themselves into a future of high priced energy forever, without being able to take any advantage of falling oil prices. Meanwhile, the US and a few other manufacturer friendly spots are poised to steal away all of their industrial manufacturers.

20 No one (who knows what they are talking about) said tariffs are inflationary. Tariffs increase cost, and therefore prices, to the consumer. That is not inflation. When that happens, what is expected is that consumers (as a whole) will purchase less of the tariffed item(s) and shift spending to some other products. Reduced demand for an item usually leads to lowering of prices.

A simple one-dimensional test such as the CPI is not very instructional. I've never been a big fan of it regarding accuracy and there are many economists (a lot) who regard it as overstating inflation generally. I'm not sure what would be better, but breaking it down into different categories reduces the sample size and generally reduces accuracy (such as it is). You can flood the zone with indicators that will tell any story you want so again I would not read much into the CPI.

I am against tariffs because that is simply more and too much government interference in my life.

Not true actually. Short run yes, long run other factors come into play like technology changes, substitution effects, etc.

Perfect example are commodity food prices. Events happen to cause relative scarcity spikes and then prices recede.

Some prices are sticky--like real estate. In part because people have a loss preference avoidance aka sunk costs.

But it's bumping up against, "Trump is deporting everyone who's browner than an Irishman, especially American citizens, and it's a travesty that will require war crime trials afterwards."

73 But if the price of a couch goes from $1000 to $1100, it’s not coming back down to $1000.
Posted by: Its Go Time Donald
====
Actually it can and does. The old style of furniture manufacturing was metal springs, wood frame, and some sort of batting. High labor costs.

Some of the newer styles of a couch don't rely on those expensive materials because of the development of high density foam and thus less labor to produce so it can be sold for less.

What you are trying to do is compare a couch made by the same production techniques in the past or future. Says really nothing about other factors coming into play.

For the most part, where inflation hurts is not really material goods where you get technology improvements or substitution effects, but services and goods where they aren't making more of it, like land etc. The price of services is what is driving a lot of the loss in buying power--medical, education, insurance, etc. And that is related to cost of labor. We shall see if AI reduces service cost.

And energy is the one key good that government interference is probably driving inflation worsened by excise taxes.

As with almost all things, there are times when they are a great good for a nation, and times when they are not. It's important to know which, and getting locked on one side or the other can be disastrous.
While the US was growing, tarriffs were a vital tool leading to economic growth. Many manufactured goods could be brought in from England, etc which would be cheaper than those built in the US; but the tarriff equalized the cost and helped promote the growth of US based industrial manufacturing, which created a skilled workforce, which greatly grew the entire country.
The US allowed its manufacturing base to be hollowed out over the last 40 years or so, and its time to go through that process again.

For most of our history, the concern of the US was fair trade with other countries, not totally free trade. In addition, tariffs and excise taxes were the main source of government revenue until the income tax came along.

Government is like a Newtonian fluid. A short, sharp smack doesn't allow it time enough to respond, so it doesn't change shape much. However a slower, constant pressure allows it to flow around the pressure point. I view the special interests as entrained barnacles that inevitably encrust any long term government program.

124 Government is like a Newtonian fluid. A short, sharp smack doesn't allow it time enough to respond, so it doesn't change shape much. However a slower, constant pressure allows it to flow around the pressure point. I view the special interests as entrained barnacles that inevitably encrust any long term government program.

125 There's one class of people who benefit from high inflation, or at least aren't harmed by it as much as others. Can you guess who that class is?

Wealthy investors. Their stock portfolios and assets generally increase with inflation, and they won't worry about the price of gas or rental housing or prime wagyu steaks.

The media are shills for the wealthy donor class. So you will never hear anything from the media that isn't favorable to the wealthy donor class.

131 Long read. Well worth it. PJ Media.

Chuck Schumer voted “Yes” for the Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act of 1986 which authorized the military to fire on drug smuggling boats. The House approved it 392-16, and the Senate approved it 97-2. Both houses of Congress that year were Democrat dominated. Funny how Democrats don't say much about this today. As I asked yesterday, why the change in attitude? What is causing, in this case, Democrats to defend drug runners?

A boat in international waters not running a national flag is categorized in international law the same way a pirate is. Such boats have absolutely no national or international protections, and so, by the very definition of the thing, you cannot commit a war crime against them. This is the UN talking, not the GOP. So much for that claim from the Democrats.

132 The elephant in the room nobody seems to grok any longer, without a defined unit of account a phony baloney confetti-buck currency that also happens to crucially be the “reserve currency” all manner of jiggery-pokery is possible and indeed inevitable, that’s rather the point.

The “expert” talking heads on the stupid box outlets actually tried to claim inflation ought not be an electoral issue in 2024 because monetary inflation was worse in other countries, around the world.

That’s weapons grade stupid right there. Reserve currency status of the US dollar allows the government to export much of the monetary inflation, though not all, along with all those dollars.

But the real issue, the currency is no longer tied to actual economic output or prudent borrowing and spending. There’s a reason there are “advocates” for sex change operations for illegal aliens on death row as a fundamental human right - in a reasonably sane economic system, there simply isn’t enough wealth to do stupid shit.

Choices have to be made. Economic triage, if you will. Ordinarily putting up invaders in luxury hotels while the locals get raped, beheaded, and/or set on fire ….

I think a lot of Army types were indifferent to socialism because the full time military basically is socialistic--food, housing, pay related to grade rather than productivity, etc.

But what is necessary for the military to function as a hierarchical organization is not suitable as a model for a free people. That is one of the reasons that people like Sam and John Adams were suspicious of a standing army. Navies on the other hand were fine because they posed much less threat to civilian government from a coup.

Amazon has degenerated in its usefullness as a seller because it now makes more from ad placement and manipulation of its search engine for product placement than it does for selling the goods.

There is a reason that Amazon's search function keeps getting more and more enshittified. That is so they only show what others have paid for you to see. Same with the Chicom vendors that pop up with fake reviews and when bad ones accumulate, then pop up as a new seller under a different name.

Amazon has degenerated in its usefullness as a seller because it now makes more from ad placement and manipulation of its search engine for product placement than it does for selling the goods.

There is a reason that Amazon's search function keeps getting more and more enshittified. That is so they only show what others have paid for you to see. Same with the Chicom vendors that pop up with fake reviews and when bad ones accumulate, then pop up as a new seller under a different name.

Walmart dot com is suffering some of the same issues.

On tariffs or excise taxes, one has the power to avoid buying the items rather than paying the tax. No such luck on income tax or property taxes other than not to earn income or buy property in the first place. One affects incentives and freedom far more than the other.

203 Deporting workers hurts the economy the economy is getting worse not better/i]

I remember discussing the minimum wage with a lefty. I made the point that the law doesn't actually increase wages, it just removes jobs that pay below what the law mandates. So if a small business owner can make $15/hour hiring a new worker and the law says you have to pay at least $15/hour then that job just goes away.

And the answer was "well maybe there are some jobs no one should be doing"

Well, that's my answer for Karen McAwfl's Guatemalan nanny. Raise your own damn kid or get used to paying the rate an American would want.

For chinesium sellers, yes. For others, selling via Ebay is becoming an alternative or walmart dot com.

I think Amazon will probably split sometime in the future between teh AWS cloud services and their retail properties. That is one of the factors that eventually leads all companies to become conglomerates is the search for high yield and when that high yield is no more in an area, then spin that part off.

Retail is a tough market with low profit margins and I am not sure that network effects can shield Amazon from that reality.

-------------

I made a similar argument three years ago (the only time I called into a local talk radio show the past few decades).

Since '96, our small city has quadrupled in population but the irresponsible City Councils have been busy with luxuries like "buying MOAR open space" (despite the fact that we're surrounded on three sides by millions of acres of National Forest and BLM lands) instead of, you know, things like basic services (infrastructure, police & fire, et. al).

There hasn't been a new fire station built since '96 and there's quite a shortage of police as many cannot afford to live here -- so someone got a ballot measure to raise the sales tax by 1% to fund the building of some more fire stations and paying more to hire police.

My argument then in 2022 was simple against those opposing the measure: "Real inflation at this time is something like 20% and you're opposed to a 1% increase in sales tax -- much of which will be payed by tourists -- that will result in an actual benefit to the community?"

The measure passed ...

Small and medium businesses, the biggest generators of employment, have easier access to more money allowing expansion. Builders too which lowers the cost of a house giving the first time home buyer a double positive; lower price and lower payments.

They all do. One thing I've learned from living among the rich and powerful in my previous job is that they are an insanely insular group that views anyone outside the group as inferior and not worthy of ... well, anything. And it's not just the leftwing scumsuckers that think this way. The "conservatives"do too.

284 CBD, this is from a market and investment watcher- he makes his life doing this stuff. He is arguing that the rolling average for the CPI matches the gasoline futures market.

Tom Luongo (Head Sneetch)
@TFL1728
2h
So, we finally get a CPI for November and it correlates perfectly with what we should have expected with the drop in gasoline prices.

The 4-month rolling avg. of the CPI has correlated directionally with the monthly closing price of gas futures since the run up to COVID. (see chart).

With RBOB Gasoline Futures trading @ $1.70 this morning. If that holds through year-end, we're looking at a Dec CPI (YoY) print of 2.3-2.4%. Coming into 2026 we can and should expect gas prices to further attenuate, the CPI to fall well below 2%, if not stall out completely, and wages to grow 3+% given the amount of investment happening.

Soon, copper and other tight supply commodities will be the driver of inflation, not gasoline, but we're not there yet.

36 What a great painting! I like everything about it. The perspective, the way he used light to create a sense of distance and mood, the level of detail (in watercolor!!) in the stonework and the house. The ruin gives a sense of longevity, history and continuity. The house with the man on a porch and the horse standing blends into the landscape and almost disappears, adding to the feel of nature's grandeur in the image.

I looked at several of his other works on the Wiki page. They are all well done and effective. I'm surprised Lev Lagorio isn't more famous. His paintings remind me of John Constable landscapes.

76 This is a really nice painting. Ithas a nice balance of light/warm vs. cool/dark. I like the setting, with the old shelter next to the rod and the ruins of what was probably a watch tower built to guard the river ford below. The touch of autumn red and the two cypresses balancing the tower ruins, the zig-zag diagonals formed by the river and the road leads the eye through the composition and into the far distance. Great work!

>5 Minute History, 12 Beautiful Paintings from Russian Artist Lev Lagorio

Lev Lagorio (1828–1905) loved the way light plays with the beauty and drama of sea and mountains.

Known for his seascapes, Lagorio studied at the Imperial Academy of Arts in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

Influenced by the great marine artist Ivan Aivazovsky, Lagorio went on a sea voyage in 1845 aboard a Russian warship, where he studied the arrangement of ships—many of which feature in his work.

He spent eight years in Italy, his paintings of which earned him a professorship on returning to Russia.

In his later years, Lagorio painted coastal views of Finland and Norway.

162 If we had a fair and honest media Trump wouldn't have to constantly point out not just the failures of the Biden administration but in many cases the criminal negligence or flat out criminality. We bathe in it daily so to us it's repetitive but the vast majority of the country rarely if ever hears it because our media is nothing more than an extension of the uniparty. The same media that in some cases actually questioned whether or not Trump had really been shot.

Unless and until there is a real reckoning for what has been going on in this country for decades I'm fine with Trump hammering it day after day after day. Make they respond and get it all out in the open.

He hits some sour notes now and again but I simply care personally very little about speeches, public communiques, etc. On average, Trump is the best communicator we have had since Reagan. Both of the Bushes were subpar and Nixon wasn't the greatest either.

I care more about results. Saw a new one today about more of the wall with Mexico having contracts let out to complete and river barriers on the Rio Grande being placed. Soon the question for President Vance will be whether we need a wall with our border on Canuckistan.

Back in the olden days, you had more media competition--often there were two papers duking it out in major cities or more, you had radio talk shows before massive syndication, etc.

Then came the consolidation into monster media companies where these publications reflected the interests of the suits in the executive suite and institutional investors rather than their captive 'consumers'.

Big Tech skipped the competition phase due to network effects and went straight to feeding noxious propaganda from the suits and institutional investors at the behest of government to the consumers.

Small is beautiful and why the idiotic idea of allowing mergers and acquisitions to produce big corporations inevitably produces bad side effects on society.

Not too early for mobile phone maps and directions so that's what we used. But the phone was telling us to divert because of traffic onto an "escaped negro trail" and there was of course no such road, and was obviously renamed.

The Morning Report — 12/18/25

Good morning kids. First we have reports of wildfires with near hurricane force winds spreading in the high plains. Prayers for the safety of all of those affected as well as for the firefighting crews and first responders who will hopefully be able to get the situation under control as rapidly as possible.


Elsewhere in the news, we have two separate shootings on two of the nation's top campuses, Brown University and at MIT.


At Brown, two students were slain, one of them was evidently a prominent conservative on campus. And that the Providence RI PD cannot or will not confirm that the shooter shouted that popular phrase that all the hep cats dig Hold that Tiger! Allah Akbar it means that he probably did and so as not to offend the delicate sensibilities and cause "backlash!" they have kept it dark.


Meanwhile up in the Boston area, an MIT professor was shot and killed in his home. He taught nuclear science and engineering.

Are these incidents all connected somehow. Given the assassination of Charlie Kirk and several failed attempts on President Trump as well as the violent rhetoric and actual violence and acts of terrorism by the Left cheered on and encouraged by the Democrat propagandist media and the Democrats themselves not just in the Trump era but virtually throughout our history. Well anything is possible, and maybe the MIT Professor had links to Academia's bête noire The State of Israel or was targeted by the Chi-Coms or other foreign state actors? Meh, just spit-ballin' here. Don't cost nuthin'. . .

And then of course, in the wake of the Islamic butchery against Jews celebrating Chanukah in Australia, this happened just the other night in the most Jewish neighborhood of America's and perhaps the world's most Jewish city outside of Israel itself.

A Jewish New Yorker described Tuesday how he was stabbed just centimeters from his heart by a hateful sicko — who made a chilling promise before lunging at him on a Brooklyn street.

“I’m going to kill a Jew today,” the knife-wielding goon seethed before launching the antisemitic attack, said victim Elias Rosner, 35, in an interview with The Post on Wednesday.

Rosner, a member of the Lubavitch Hasidic community in Crown Heights, had just left the temple on Tuesday afternoon when he came across the still-at-large attacker spewing antisemitic slurs.

“I was waiting in a crowd of Jewish people and this guy started spouting stuff,” Rosner recalled. “I’m going to kill Jewish people, I’m going to kill a Jew today, I don’t give a f–k … We wouldn’t be in this mess if the Holocaust had happened,” the unhinged man ranted, according to Rosner.
The man “looked very serious” — but Rosner refused to cower in the face of the ugly threats, he said. “I guess I was the one guy that had the bravery to look him in the eye,” he said.

“So, he was waiting. He set a trap up for me a block ahead. He came around the corner and it just started happening.”

Rosner was stabbed once in the chest, at the corner of Kingston Avenue and Lincoln Place around 4 p.m., by the madman, police said, adding the NYPD was investigating the attack as an antisemitic hate crime — on the third night of the Hanukkah Jewish holiday.

The Brooklynite only narrowly escaped with his life — miraculously saved by his sweater, he said.. . Rosner said the attack was part of the uptick in antisemitic sentiment following Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza, with the anti-Jewish hate trickling down to Big Apple neighborhoods, including on college campuses and in the subways.

If the neighborhood of "Crown Heights" sounds somewhat familiar to some of you, it was the scene of a car accident back in 1991 involving a young black child who was hit by a car being driven by a Hassidic man. Sadly with tensions already (historically) running high between the long-standing Hassidic community and their black neighbors, Al Sharpton was on the scene faster than you can say "White Interlopers and Diamond Merchants" and a near full scale race riot and pogrom broke out resulting in the beating death, at the hands of a mob of black youths of one Yankel Rosenbaum, an orthodox Jewish student who was visiting the US from, of all places Australia!! For three straight days and nights Jewish homes and shops were attacked, and two weeks later, another man was killed by the mobs, who wasn't even Jewish but mistaken for one, having been in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The Crown Heights pogrom and the sheer ineptitude of then mayor David Dinkins in allowing it to happen by handcuffing law enforcement, ultimately led to his ouster two years later and the temporary reprieve of the Big Apple from doom with the glory years of Rudy Giuliani. Yet, here we are 34 years on and the city has decided that a Muslim Communist is what NYC needs.

Quite a few of Australia's Jews have decided that the land down under will send them six feet under so they have decided that enough is enough after witnessing Bondi Beach.

The attack has left Sydney’s Jewish community shaken, with some members now considering emigrating to Israel. Chavi, a 27-year-old mother who was at the event with her baby, described using her body as a shield to protect her child during the attack. “I love Australia, I was born here, and I know [Israel] is in the Middle East… but we were just sitting ducks here,” she told the Sydney Morning Herald.

And yet New York and far too many of its Jews by birth only just shoved a thermonuclear enema up its collective keister.

But you better not complain!

British authorities sentenced a Dorset man to 18 months in jail for inciting hate and violence on X in the heated aftermath of the 2024 Southport stabbings that left three children dead and another 10 people injured. . . There's no denying the nasty nature of Yarwood's posts, sent to X before the identity of the killer — 17-year-old Axel Rudakubana — was known, but was widely misreported to have been a Muslim immigrant. Rudakubana was born in Cardiff, but his parents were evangelical immigrants from Rwanda. . . Even a veteran of intemperate tweets like myself would never post anything like Yarwood did, but still, 33 views? This guy barely incited more racial hatred than Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh in all three Lethal Weapon movies combined. See, that's funny because one is black and the other is white and they're basically family and race hardly comes up. I miss movies like those. 

But oh no, President Trump said nasty things about Rob Reiner. As CBD and I discussed on the latest episode of the podcast, linked here and in the sidebar and posted on the usual outlets listed below, there are far more crucial things the President can and should be communicating to the American people than his personal animus towards the late Mr. Reiner.

In any case as VIctor Davis Hanson notes, we are (are we?) in danger of heading towards a new dark age.

Contemporary Americans do not believe that our current civilization could self-destruct a third time in the West, followed by an impoverished and brutal Dark Age.

But what caused these prior returns to tribalism and loss of science, technology, and the rule of law?

Historians cite several causes of societal collapse—and today they are hauntingly familiar.Like people, societies age. Complacency sets in.


Meh, professor, in the immortal words of Nick Lowe, "You've got to be cruel to be kind!"

6 A repost from September:

Trump is going to run again: In 2026 as if he's on the ticket. He may even hold a Convention.

This is to prevent the typical result of the party in power losing seats in the mid-terms, because the other side is more energized.

Trump is still running a high-wire act and much will depend on where we are in 12 months. If the economy is good and we aren't at war, Trump & Co will do well. I also expect Trump will have poured buckets of blood over the heads of many in opposition. The Ds are already shedding voters.

The key variable in US elections is Turnout and it's mostly ignored by Media. Standard polling misses the effects of Turnout, sometimes badly, and it's even more important in mid-terms.

From 2016 on, Trump's success has been built on getting White Non-college turnout and more recently increased turnout from many Hispanics and some Black men.

He's not running in 2028, except in support of JD (probably)

11 Another illegal truck driver has killed someone and THEN THEY LET HIM OUT. This guy came in illegally in 2023 and got a commercial license in California. Killed a father of two. People mourning the Reiners should remember that this is the kind of thing they did to our country. Will there be days of stories about the family who lost their father? No, because commie leftist Hollywood assholes are more important.

The world is being destroyed by a few multi-billionaire megalomaniacs and their massive amounts of monies they have used to intentionally destroy countries and societies.

They need to be hunted down and have their heads placed on pikes for all to see and learn.

Wishing yours and the rest of the Horde well.

Last week, we married off the last pup. Great celebration.

For those who asked yesterday, just returned from several great days in Eilat. Was hoping for warmer weather but the heated pool in the villa we rented was great compensation.

The villa was - to quote Trump - "huge!" - big enough for most of our pups and grandpups. In spite of the news, we kept a good time going, especially for the grandpups.

43 I have to wonder about the Reiner murders. One of these two, Rob or his wife, had to have woken up while the kid was killing one of them, only to then be murdered. He couldn't have killed them both simultaneously. So either mom or dad witnessed something pretty horrific before the knife turned on them. Likely, it was his mom.

Two recent events really seem to have unleashed the bloodthirsty demons from hell: 1. October 7 two years ago, 2. Charlie Kirk’s murder

Now… these two things seem to have raised the bloodlust of evil folks who in the past would’ve kept their mouths shut… instead now they celebrate openly. It’s unsettling and disgusting… maybe (unfortunately) the esteemed VDH has a point. Is the civilization just running out of steam?

Sure. They're really pretty similar. Criticizing your predecessor's failed policies is directly analogous to calling millions of citizens "fascists" who are destroying "the soul of the nation." And, doing that on an imposing stage lit like a bloodbath while flanked by armed Marines as an unveiled threat to those "fascists" is very similar to a guy delivering his remarks at a desk, flanked by Christmas trees and garlands.

Same thing, basically.

139 I am thinking about Trump's speech.
We all know he can be warm, funny, engaging.
So why would he deliver some fantastic news for the military, something that could be really heartwarming, in that tone?

I posit 2 things:
1) Trump has always redirected fire at himself, so that other's don't get attacked.
2) He wanted everyone to focus on the tone.

Because:
1) now they are not going to smear the military as "being bought off" by Trump; or "falling for a silly gimmick, 1776." Or worse, "why not the minorities, they're suffering too?"
2) They will ignore the other, just as important part: He has laid out his agenda for the next 11 months; more freedom, more prosperity, more America.
And the Dems are going to focus on the tone, how he's wrong, how bad things are.
While falling into Step 1: Get the Dems on the wrong side of the issue.
The issue is "who is going to fix this?"

164 Amid the partisan polarization, there is a two-to-one plurality for less migration vs more migration. Just 18 percent of citizens want legalized migration to be increased, while 35 percent want it decreased or zeroed.

Twenty-five percent said the number should not be changed, even though establishment outlets rarely described the actual inflow of legalized migrants each year.


35% decreased or zeroed
43% increased or remain the same

That's depressing. Decreased or zeroed should be at least 75% (since we know 25% of the population is retarded).

What happened to the remaining 22%? No opinion?

And if this is an accurate poll of the feelings of this country, then we are nowhere near getting to the point we need to be to deport and ban all Muslims and Third Worlders and putting a 10-20 year moratorium on all immigration.

All Muslims and Third Worlders needed to be deported yesterday. And despite the destruction they have caused this country over the past 25 years, people still don't get it.

The Betrayal of the West


There is no number that will convince the "leaders", because the "leaders" of western nations for at least the past 25 years are on the side of Islam conquering the West.

The 09/11/2001 Islamic terrorist attack should have been enough. But immediately every "leader" in the West declared Islam a "religion of peace" and bent over backwards to accommodate Muslims. More Islamic terrorist attacks in London in 2005 and same response. 20 years later, London has been conquered by Islam. 24 years after 09/11/2001, NYC has been conquered by Islam.

We still have retards in Texas (mostly the population) who don't understand that energy generation requires water, and south east Texas has plenty of it and is not willing to share/sell to mid-west Texas where the fuel and generation needs to take place.

"Trump has paralyzed Venezuela’s “black market” oil trade. Maduro could face 700% inflation next year

The U.S. oil blockade of Venezuela, announced by President Donald Trump, threatens to dismantle the country’s black-market oil trade, The Wall Street Journal reports.

According to U.S. officials, this trade provides income to President Nicolás Maduro’s inner circle and supports the country’s fragile economy. For years, Venezuela has used the same scheme to bypass American sanctions as Russia and Iran.

The country exports oil through a “shadow fleet” of tankers, mainly delivering crude to Asia in exchange for cryptocurrency. (Chi-na??)

Strict sanctions are expected to sharply reduce foreign currency inflows, worsen food and fuel shortages in the import-dependent country, and inevitably accelerate inflation, which the IMF estimates could approach 700% next year."

In 2016, the series Black and British: A Forgotten History, suggested that the Roman skeleton of a woman found at Beachy Head was from sub-Saharan Africa.

A plaque was erected to commemorate her heritage, which was later removed when a study suggested the woman was more likely to be from Cyprus, with a Mediterranean complexion.

Now a new DNA analysis of the skeleton by scientists at the Natural History Museum has shown that the woman originated from southern England and was white, with blonde hair and light eyes.

It is THE reason I supported him in 2016 and have supported him ever since.

I was borderline "NeverTrump" early in the 2016 campaign. I had been supporting Scott Walker early on, thinking he was the best for the position based on having to govern in a state full of leftists in Wisconsin. And I didn't take Donald Trump seriously. I thought he was just getting in to stir up trouble and hand the election to Hillary Clinton.

But when I saw Donald Trump state his positions on illegal aliens and building a wall and no one else in the GOP agreed with him or coopted his position, I knew they were all the same GOPe traitors that caused me to leave the GOP in 2006 after the Amnesty push by Bush 43 and McCain and Grahmnesty.

321 Sorry all but Dan Bongino was not put in charge of the FBI, he was a helper, a deputy, and had no real authority unless Kash gave it to him. I think with Kash doing all his antics with his girlfriend and patches on jackets and his ego, Blondi doing absolutely nothing and being an idiot to boot, Dan got frustrated and said why am I wasting my time with this shit. Trump won't bad mouth Dan because he knows Dan will be back on the air and if Trump disses him he'll let loose. No one wants that.

A fair take. Bongino was a field agent, not a suit and to manage a hostile horde of FBI agents at HQ with endless streams of paperwork, meetings, etc. was probably not to his taste.

Some of us, including me, are simply not management material by nature. But it can often take some time for some of us to recognize that fact.

You don't. That is the Trump dilemma because it is almost all the agencies. They have a core of about 20-30 percent angry leftists, 50-60 percent go along and get along until retirement, and maybe a sliver 5-10 percent (depends on agency) of people on the right that have been silenced and in the closet for decades even in GOP administrations.

331 First of all Bongino was not a good fit at the FBI. He would have been much better as head of the Secret Service where he could have significantly upgraded the protection functions of that agency. The deputy director of the FBI is mainly a personnel positioning official, not somebody who directs the path of the agency, or heads up investigations. When Bongino took the job, he said he would try it for a year to see how it worked out. The people here bad mouthing him are essentially full of crap. I would love to see what a giant Clusterfuck of a deputy director any of you Monday morning Quarter Backs would be.

Bongino was the person who forced the agency to arrest a J6 bomber suspect.

Top Story

  • Micron says the memory shortage will get worse before it gets better, and also that it won't get better if they have anything to say about it. (Tom's Hardware)

    Micron has two factories under construction in Idaho due to come on line in 2027, and another planned in New York to be operational in 2030.

    Even with those three new factories churning out chips they only expect to meet half to two thirds of demand.

    In the meantime, though, the company posted a revenue increase of 57% over last year, so they don't really care about you and your money, as indicated by them shutting down their Crucial consumer brand after nearly 30 years.


  • And the second of my two new mini-PCs arrived today. I set up the first one last night - just plugged it in, turned it on, lied and told Windows I didn't have internet, and it works. It's pretty fast too, with none of the lag I get with my laptop.

    Partly because the CPU is nearly twice as fast as the one in my laptop, partly because it's a clean install of Windows and doesn't have about 200 different applications installed yet. I'll fix that.

    It really does have 64GB of RAM. 64GB of Crucial RAM, apparently, which is now a collectors item.

    It's available for sale now on Minisforum's US store, but the price is about 70% higher than in Australia even after a 20% discount, so it's no bargain.

    Update: Unnamed computer #2 is plugged in and working.

26 California, Washington State, and Oregon are about to achieve their fossil fuel-free utopia because Phillips, Chevron, and Valero are shutting down refineries in California. This will reduce gasoline output by at least 20%.

Phillips pulling out of California has a knock-on effect in Washington state that's causing their Ferndale refinery to be shut down. This has a further knock-on effect because Oregon has no refineries and gets all its gasoline out of Washington State.

All of this is self-inflicted by stupidity in the state governments with regulations and hostile government environments that have made it impossible for these companies to operate. They wanted feudal states they got them. Worse is there's no easy way to replace that gasoline shortage from other sources domestically. They will be forced to buy it from China, India and Saudi Arabia and then have to ship it to the United States.

The prediction is gasoline prices in those three states will hit at least $8 a gallon by mid 2026 and only go up from there. Of course shortages will be part of the deal.

52 Evening and morning, all. It it really Thor's Day already? Only a week until Christmas? The holiday, the Big Day, used to take *forever* to get here after Thanksgiving. Now the four weeks flash by, faster with every decade. Is it because the processing power of your brain improves (well, I *hope* it does) as you grow up? Or is it, as someone suggested, that a day or a month is a much larger proportion of your life when you are ten than it is when you are sixty?

Maybe both. Lemme have my coffee.

I knocked off five minutes early and still got a lot of rainwater in my eyes, which I hate.

Radar shows some rain still approaching. Probably better if I take it easy today. We don't expect rain, or cold temps, for another week after this.

The one Pixy linked to has two M.2 slots so you can add a second drive.

The second M.2 drive slot is also used to the Occulink port, though, as it slots in there.

But if you don't need to use an external GPU then you don't need that Occulink port and can just remove it and keep it if you ever need it.

It's like programmer slang, a cooler way to say "get":

MegaRoy used to do the zoomies across the bed when he was maybe younger than two. He's just too damned big to be effective at the parkor aspects of that. He'll run back and forth through the house breaking traction on the turns as we have hardwood floors.

ONT Department of Military Long Form Reading Material

Apologies if this has already been posted somewhere on Ace of Spades, but posting to make sure you see. Mandatory reading (since this is a semi-serious military blog at times).

A Week In The Pentagon - Chaos, Complexity and Hope

Many pull quotes but this one is a good example:

And here's the truth no one outside the building understands: often Trump himself doesn't know the decision in advance - and that is by design.

In the old model, a policy chief like Colby - if he wasn't drowned out entirely by the bureaucratic circus - would brief the President only after the internal machinery had already decided which ideas were "viable." By the time anything reached the Oval Office, the cake was half-baked.

Colby doesn't play that game. He encourages his team to present the President with multiple strategic pathways that share one overarching objective: put America first. Not metaphorically-literally. Then Trump chooses.

And once the President selects a strategy, everything changes.

In previous administrations, the moment a plan left the Oval Office, think tanks, senators, lobbyists, foreign service officials, intel chiefs, and a whole menagerie of Beltway fauna would descend on the National Security Council to tug at the plan, dilute it, reshape it, or kill it entirely. Every actor demanded their piece, their clause, their carve-out, their exception. Strategy, once released into the wild, rarely survived the stampede.

That era is over.

Trump doesn't ignore these players - he's altered significant strategies to accommodate strong objections from Congress and foreign allies - but he no longer allows them to hijack the core plan. They may comment. They may object. They may warn. They may advise. But they are no longer permitted to quietly amputate or rewrite the strategic heart before it beats.

The wonks are in charge again - but not the conference-circuit wonks with PhDs, hotel per diems, and NATO summit panels funded by NGOs with agendas buried in their footnotes. Not the pseudo-experts who present PowerPoints about imaginary futures.

The wonks in charge now are the ones who can take the boundless complexity of geopolitics and distill it down to America's core interests - those who can see the world not as a chessboard or a cocktail party but as a dynamic system requiring clarity, courage, and constant recalibration.

And for the first time in decades, the Pentagon is beginning to operate according to that principle.

ONT Department of Lego Construction

Anyone build their own Lego piece sorter? I didn't know this, but there is an entire sub-genre on YouTube of people making videos about making Lego piece sorters. I will admit, as a general rule, I am endlessly fascinated seeing many different solutions attempting to solve the same problem. (But I am also easily amused, so there is that...)

***

ONT Department of Military History

Last Wednesday's ONT included the story of the Vietnam-era toilet bomb. But wait, there's more!

20220918-VFA25-toilet-Super-Hornet21.jpg

From The War Zone:

CWO3 Wayne Toth, a member of VFA-25, who shared his photos with us for this article, also gave us a little background on how the toilet-bomb was brought back to life:

"I am the Gunner in now VFA-25. We had a change of command and decided to replicate it. This time on a brand new BLOCK III Super Hornet.

One of my AO3s (AO3 Meagan Rickets) picked up a toilet from [the] marketplace, and I cut the steel, used Mk 76 lugs, made the tail assembly out of multiple dryer exhausts, and our Corrosion Control made the stickers."

The change of command ceremony occurred on September 16 at Naval Air Station Lemoore where the historic toilet recreation was so proudly displayed. During the ceremony, Commander Mark "IROC" Tedrow, a former Blue Angel, took over as skipper of VFA-25 from Commander Kristen Hansen. It was a perfect place for a fun callback to the proud history of the squadron.

Bonus answer to the question from last week: Why did the original toilet have an "E" on it?

The "E" seen on the toilet denotes the unit has been awarded the Battle Effectiveness Award.

REMINDER

Saturday's Hobby Thread requires Horde participation. On last Saturday's Hobby Thread, we honored the Christmas ornament. Many among the Horde sent photos of ornaments from their collections to the Hobby Thread email address. It seemed to go well, so we're doing it again this Saturday. That means if you missed it the first time or you have another ornament to submit, you get another chance.

Could be something sentimental, something you made as a child or an adult, something special given to you, something you picked up on your travels, something whimsical or fun, something particularly novel, something really old, something handmade, something intricate or fancy, something irreverent and cheeky, etc.

If there is a story behind your photo, send a brief description. I may edit or inappropriately embellish, so be warned.

20251211-20251211_184631.jpg

If you don't have an ornament, but have some other favorite festive Christmas decoration, send it in. Ornaments get priority but will feature other decorations if there is space.

THANK YOU!

16 People at car cruise nights pull that parking cone bullshit. They show up, park their car, and then put cones in a few more spots for friends that might show up later. Meanwhile people are showing up and can't find parking because of it. One dude finally said lick my ass and literally drove over the cones and parked. It caused a bit of a scene, but too bad. If you can't get there when everybody else does, tough shit.

24 Content perused, mostly consumed. Several classic re-run pieces tonight; Christmas is a good time for classics.

Lego sorting: When our boys were young, their Lego collection grew with every birthday and Christmas. They liked playing with them, but not so much cleaning them up. I remember once taking a snow shovel to their bedroom floor and dumping them in a large box. I did make an attempt to help them sort out and organize the collection, so you could find that three-dot red brick when you wanted it, but they ignored order, and I quickly gave it up. Somewhere in the catacombs is the whole pile of them.

29 I wish someone would walk into my house and start chopping vegetables. But we know he would be a serial killer before I could thank him.

I have had serial killers in my thoughts now and then, thanks to one in college. I can't read about them or watch TV about them because it would trigger the only nightmare I have had in my entire life.

My husband got to be part of it, lucky guy. He was traveling a lot and our first house did not have an alarm. A lot of elderly deaf neighbors who would not hear me if something happened to me and our boys.

In my dream satan got into bed with me (it was my husband after a trip to the loo). I started screaming at 0200 and he thought someone was in the room, too. Put his arm around me (satan in dream) and I fought him screaming.

He had to turn on the light to wake me, and his arm was shredded. Probably still has scars and I should look.

This was because subconsciously he saw me reading the paper about the bastard's execution, saw all the girl's photos he killed, and commented that I looked like some of them (our hair, long, parted in the middle). That's all it took for the Nightmare of My Life trigger screamfest.

You cannot use flare fittings for AC lines, they can only be used for DC lines.

72 Thought I would send you guys an update on all of the "Health Stuff" that has transpired over the last week:

I have a "pump fill'" scheduled first thing Friday morning, then we will be on our way out of town. Thankfully, this fill is just Heparin and saline to keep the pump flowing for the next 2 weeks; when we get back, I have another fill scheduled to start the new chemo medication which will hopefully do the trick and get the rest of these tumors knocked off.

The best Christmas present of all for me (well, us) is that if this pump thing works, there is a better than average chance that I could go 2-3 YEARS before we have to start worrying about this beast coming back! And who knows what advancements may be made in that time period?

It truly is a Christmas miracle, and we are so incredibly blessed to have access to such stellar medical care right in our own back yard. We are also blessed to have SO MANY people saying prayers on our behalf. We are truly grateful for each and every one of you.

We hope that everyone has the Merriest of Christmases/Happiest of Hanukahs/Festive of Festivuses/etc. with those they love.

I'd heard of all black student unions, but this is too far. I'd yank my kid out of there faster than he could sew his furry costume and keep him in the basement til he saw the light.

Oh, some are called Bronies, or men that dress up like My Little Ponies. Their subculture is to create their thing or fursona. Gag. And to "create" little cartoons.

At this college there are 17 retards who had a camp fire, where one guy looks like he wants to melt himself like a marshmallow he's so stoned.The ugly girl next to him looks like she wants to help melt him. I just don't know, y'all...

111 That Duran Duran video is very iconic. When MTV started it got very heavy rotation.
----
December of 1982, I stayed at my girlfriends parent's house for 2 days. They had this new channel MTV. The 2 most memorable videos I watched were the Duran Duran video and...Kiss, with "I Love it Loud".

The Duran Duran vid was mesmerizing because it was new and current. The Kiss video caught my eye because rock radio had tried to pretend that Kiss didn't exist. Yes, I mean that. Kiss was a HUGE band in the mid-70s, BUT rock radio shortly thereafter tried to ignore them, as if they weren't pure enough to get airplay like Styx, REO, Journey, etc.

When I saw that Kiss video, I smiled--Kiss still lived.

149 Messrs Smith et Wesson have just introduced their own version of the 30-round .22 magnum. I have the Kel-Tec, and just got the S&W for my sister (good trade wouldn't you say).

It is, of course, marginal for 'home defense,' but way better than .22. It shoots flat, has long range for a pistol, is easy to aim, has essentially no recoil. Jokesters call it the "Poor man's five-seven." When fully loaded, it has a big-pistol feel, which can be good. Since it's mid-sized, it's not ideal for concealed carry. For a holster, it's still lighter than any medium caliber pistol -- but if you want to use a laser sight on the rail, you might have a hard time finding a holster to fit.

I'd given my sister a 686 revolver years ago, a .357 loaded with .38, and although I think of it as an excellent piece, it was just too much gun for her and she wouldn't take it out to practice. I'm looking forward to her shooting hell out of the .22 mag.

This is all i got now....
Death Rides a Horse (1967)
​If the movie felt more like a "Spaghetti Western" (gritty, stylized, and high-energy music), this is likely it.
​The Plot: A young man (Bill) witnesses the brutal murder of his family (including his mother and sister) as a child.
​The Journey: He grows up and sets out on a horse across the desert to hunt down the five men responsible.
​The Detail: He teams up with an older gunfighter (played by Lee Van Cleef) who has his own score to settle with the same gang.

It's an AI result, so your mileage may vary.

Natural meteoric influx is about 54 tons per day. Space junk is about 5% of that currently.

They are worried about aluminum, I see. Natural Al from meteors is a small fraction of the total, and the space junk Al injection already exceeds that previous natural infall.

220 NYT has a big article on Venezuelan Navy escorting cargo ships past 0the American blockade. The headline reads, 'Venezuelan Navy Escorts Vessels in Defiance of Trump’s Blockade Threat'.

Reading more closely one sees that the escorted ships were not on the sanction list. In other words, they were escorting unsanctioned ships. Ships that were permitted to pass.

But it will look good on Maduro's propaganda video.

221 I think the threat from aluminum is a bit hyped. There's only a 2% chance of a reaction. So something measured in low parts per billion is not going to do much to a O3 population measured in parts per million, even if it is catalytic.

Trump Speech Thread

I've been advising Trump to deliver a speech to the public, focused on the economy, for a while now.

Glad he's doing it.

President Trump is set to address the nation in prime time Wednesday night, using a nationally televised speech to highlight major accomplishments over his first year back in office while offering a preview of the policy fights ahead as his administration presses deeper into America's "Golden Age."

The address is scheduled for 9 p.m. Eastern, live from the White House. Trump announced the speech himself Tuesday in a post on Truth Social, writing, "My Fellow Americans: I will be giving an ADDRESS TO THE NATION tomorrow night, LIVE FROM THE WHITE HOUSE, at 9 P.M. EST." He added, "It has been a great year for our Country, and THE BEST IS YET TO COME!"

I did not listen to his blathering politically correct nonsense...but the ALS thing is a trans! Or the wicked witch of a children's nightmare.

The Christmas Classic.Super bad. The mountain barely had snow and it was so lame we could not turn away.

Super bad cinema (Dan Ackroid, SNL).

I wish I could remember the #1 worst movie of all time of the guy and his horse we watched for almost 2hrs with no dialogue but riding across a desert.About 2yrs ago. My husband recalls music in the background. One of our sons wants to know so he can see it but we can't remember the name. It is part of our lives that vanished. When it was over we both said wth and cracked up. Retarded cinema.

215 The economy in New Mexico is still awful. This has nothing to do with Donald Trump and everything to do with the Communist is Santa Fe. This is a permanent state of being and likely will never change. If you if you looked at every state around New Mexico they are all booming and the reason that for that is they don't have the Communists up in Santa Fe running their states.

Recently one of the local papers was talking about the remodeling of the capitol building (in Salem OR), and noted it now had more tranny bathrooms than any other state capitol building in the US.

Then a commenter on the online version posted that he was bothered that the people who couldn't identify what sex they were even with photographic examples for guidance were the ones making all the laws for us to live by. ANNNNND the article was taken down and when it was reposted the comments section was locked.

My electricity rates went up 40% just this last February. They shut down our Meredosia coal plant years ago. I talked with our local Adams Electric Coop and he also lamented about all the coal we have, while BigGov was shutting down cheap (and clean) coal.

BigGov wasted big money on burying "carbon" tech, but that never came to fruition, just money to "important people" I assume.

The only video I have seen is in neighborhoods and RING of the jolly chubby guy.

While Candace and Tucker screamed it was the Jews, the furry Kirk murderer was filmed doing all sorts of things, and going up stairs...with his face figured out enough to be identified by his parents.

38 Thought I would send you guys an update on all of the "Health Stuff" that has transpired over the last week:

I have a "pump fill'" scheduled first thing Friday morning, then we will be on our way out of town. Thankfully, this fill is just Heparin and saline to keep the pump flowing for the next 2 weeks; when we get back, I have another fill scheduled to start the new chemo medication which will hopefully do the trick and get the rest of these tumors knocked off.

The best Christmas present of all for me (well, us) is that if this pump thing works, there is a better than average chance that I could go 2-3 YEARS before we have to start worrying about this beast coming back! And who knows what advancements may be made in that time period?

It truly is a Christmas miracle, and we are so incredibly blessed to have access to such stellar medical care right in our own back yard. We are also blessed to have SO MANY people saying prayers on our behalf. We are truly grateful for each and every one of you.

We hope that everyone has the Merriest of Christmases/Happiest of Hanukahs/Festive of Festivuses/etc. with those they love.

45 I wanted to say thank you to every one who offered prayers for my wife's safe surgery. It went well this morning. The surgeon removed most of the hardware he put in a year ago with the exception of something that looks like a deck screw that he said he'd have to brake the bone again to remove so it was left in. She is hopped up on pain killers, but otherwise resting and doing well. About 2 weeks before she can walk and she should be fine in 6-8 weeks.

Thank you again.

58 The Tennessee Titans are 2-12. They have played 14 games, and lost 12 of those.

And their rookie QB wants to somehow believe the future is all about him. He today came out and said he wants to talk to all of the head coaching candidates the team interviews. He's played in all 14 of their games, and has only 11 passing touchdowns and his completion percentage is under 60%. He's been sacked 49 teams.

Perhaps the Titans should be interviewing replacement QB candidates as well.

Dan is the best partner I could’ve asked for in helping restore this FBI. He brought critical reforms to make the organization more efficient, led the successful Summer Heat op, served as the people’s voice for transparency, and delivered major breakthroughs in long unsolved cases like the pipe bomb investigation. And that’s only a small part of the work he went about every single day delivering for America.

It will come as no surprise that the biggest lobbyist for this policy is an outfit in Chile called Los Datos de Pingüinos, which is funded by the Partido Comunista de Chile.

The group running Venezuela is *not* anything like a popular government - it is a vast criminal organization that hangs onto control through brutality and fear. (Last election, squashed by Maduro, proved that.). BUT to keep this going requires a huge amount of cash; Madura has to pay off all the cartels whose shipments he’s supposed to protect; he has to pay off his own army and militias so they don’t revolt; he has kick some money back to the Chinese, the Russians, and the Iranians; and he has to pay the gangs of thugs inside Venezuela that he uses for street level control.
It all demands a huge amount of cash, each month - cut off the regimes cash, you cut off all of the support it needs to stay alive.

After Months of Rumors and Speculation, Dan Bongino Announces He's Leaving the FBI

Dan Bongino
@FBIDDBongino

31m

I will be leaving my position with the FBI in January.
I want to thank President Trump, AG Bondi, and Director Patel for the opportunity to serve with purpose.
Most importantly, I want to thank you, my fellow Americans, for the privilege to serve you.
God bless America, and all those who defend Her.

Trump says he wants to go back to his show. I figure that's probably right. He had a great job. He did a turn of service. He figures he's done enough and it's time to go back to his permanent job.

And he might have decided he doesn't like the constant denigration and the claims he's covering up for Epstein and now for the innocent patsy Tyler Robinson, and has decided, "Enough of this bullshit." Working for less money than you're used to is one thing, seeing your reputation permanently damaged by conspiracy-addled blowhards is another thing.

Tucker Carlson has been sowing suspicions about Patel and Bongino.

Bongino was always bursting to reveal something horrific, but couldn't because something else was about to come out, or his sources would be traceable, or the investigation would be revealed and everyone would run around burning the remaining evidence.

It seems to me he's just sickened by the depth and extent of the rot and he's kind of... walking away in despair.

Did he? How do we know this? Anyone who has worked in a bureaucracy knows that rot primarily exists because dealing with it is too much work. Even tenured teachers (especially ones who deserve to be fired) can be if an administrator puts some effort into it. But that would take sustained work.

The vast majority of federal workers get stellar reviews year after year. If there's just 'so much rot' at the DOJ/FBI, then start putting people through the very annoying process of getting them fired. Some will quit, others will end up in rubber rooms getting paid to do nothing. But you can have an effect. It's just not the sort of thing a media talking head is likely to have the patience for.

We need to create an entire new federal investigative agency to investigate the FBI and CIA and go through all of these cover-ups and find out what happened and who was responsible.

Try that with the federal government and their unions. You will drive yourself insane trying to fire the first dozen employees you come across that need to be fired. You will be tied up 24/7 with all sorts of HR bull$hit record keeping and jumping through the hoops you need to do to fire anyone. Plus you will not be able to do your primary job while you are doing all of that work.


And even if you manage to get them fired, which I did a couple of times the courts and MSPB will just order you to hire them back with back pay and "protected" status. Been there and did that.

Shooting is more wild. It seems the guy's son was being attacked. So he went to help his son move out. Story says the family lawyer states campus security escorted them to the dorm. The shooting happened outside the residence hall and Bard hit two of the alleged attackers, one of whom died.

196 Read Blacklisted By History, it did yeoman’s work investigating subversives in the 1930s and 1940s, the problem was very clearly was not with the FBI, the problem was presidents like FDR and Truman etc. The chief executive controls the DOJ.

“Good and pure” is a red herring. They went from investigating the bad guys to covering for the bad guys, sometime after the 1970s.

The long march through the institutions. Did you think the FBI would be immune?

It's really not that simple. Yes, there were commies and "subversives" in this country stirring up shite, but the question is, were they doing anything illegal?

How many of those "subversives" were scooped up by the Fibbers, not for illegal activity, but for being a pain in the arse to the powers that be in DC?

Even if I don't like the people who are enemies of the powerful, it doesn't mean I'm going to ignore the fact that our government was and is, a crime syndicate who hires thugs to keep the competition from getting too uppity.

Israel is the prime example. Your basic choice is that Israel exists (meaning it defends itself), or it doesn't - meaning the fulfillment of "River to the Sea". If you refuse to see the US's interest in that issue, you're totally ignoring reality. You may be on one side or the other of that issue, but to say the US has NO interest - - choosing to be blind.

Shock: Somali Scammer Caught Perpetrating Another Somali Scam

The moment that Tom Homan announced he was investigating Ilhan "Omar" Nur's lifetime of defrauding the US immigration system, she suddenly had an outrage to "bitch" about, as Trump said.

When people began asking about her immigration fraud and marrying her fucking gay brother, she claimed her son had been pulled over by ICE and almost kidnapped in an attempt to intimidate her!!!

Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Todd Lyons is flatly rejecting Rep. Ilhan Omar's claim that ICE agents pulled over her son after a routine trip to Target, calling the allegation baseless and unsupported by any agency record.

Omar, a Minnesota Democrat and longtime critic of federal immigration enforcement, said in a recent interview that her son was stopped by ICE and released only after producing his passport. When the interviewer pressed her on the unusual detail that her son allegedly had a passport on him while shopping, Omar doubled down on the story.

Lyons, however, told Fox News Digital that ICE has "absolutely zero record" of any officers or agents stopping Omar's son. He said it "speaks volumes" that the congresswoman is making the accusation without evidence and suggested the claim is part of a broader effort to vilify ICE as the Trump administration ramps up deportations.

Omar's office has refused to retreat. Spokeswoman Jacklyn Rogers said the congresswoman is standing by her account, alleging that Omar's son and others were racially profiled and forced to prove their citizenship. Rogers accused ICE of operating as a "rogue agency" and claimed it routinely fails to maintain accurate records, adding that Omar's office would welcome the chance to review any documentation ICE says it has.

The dispute comes as Omar continues to defend Somali migrants in Minnesota amid a series of massive fraud cases tied to state and federal aid programs. One of the most prominent cases involves Feeding Our Future, a Minneapolis-area nonprofit run by Somali migrants that prosecutors say siphoned roughly $250 million from child nutrition programs.

And speaking of this Somali whore marrying her gay brother: "Yes, Ilhan Omar married her brother."

I'm talking about Omar's marriage to her brother, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi. Trump may have garbled the specifics, but he got the upshot of the story right. Omar's family brought Elmi over from London around 2002 to try to extract him from a gay lifestyle, and that is the context in which the congresswoman tied the knot with him.


...

A reader had directed me to a post on a message board called SomaliSpot, which has since been removed from the Internet. It asserted that Omar had married her husband, Ahmed Hirsi--the father of her children--in 2002, but that she had then married her brother, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, in 2009. Her campaign website advertised Hirsi as her husband and made no mention of Elmi.

I checked out the SomaliSpot story online through the Minnesota Official Marriage System. Inputting Omar's name, I found that the two marriages cited in the SomaliSpot post checked out as indicated. The site reflected Omar's 2002 marriage to her advertised husband, Ahmed Aden (later Ahmed Hirsi), and her 2009 marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi identified in the SomaliSpot post as Omar's brother. As it turned out, Omar and Hirsi had only applied for a marriage license in 2002 but never followed through with a legal marriage.

Citing the SomaliSpot post and online marriage information, I contacted Omar's campaign and got a response from criminal defense attorney Jean Brandl. I had seen her in court representing one of the six Somali defendants who pleaded guilty in the 2016 ISIS terrorism case. The attorney's message was a classic nonresponse response that called me a bigot and said I should direct further questions to her rather than the campaign spokesman I had called. She seemed to think she could scare me off. When I directed my further questions to her as she had instructed, she ignored me.

I wrote about all this on Power Line. My post slowly generated a huge controversy that the Minnesota Star Tribune eventually covered. I got a call from then-Star Tribune reporter Patrick Coolican, who told me that he was writing the story and that the campaign denied that Elmi is Omar's brother. I asked, "Who do they say he is?" He responded: "They won't tell me."

...


Their story proves beyond a reasonable doubt that Omar married her brother for some fraudulent purpose. Coolican and Montemayor all but begged Omar for an interview and access to her family to discuss the issue. She repaid them with the same kind of treatment I had received in 2016. These left-wing reporters for a left-wing newspaper begged Omar for a response, but they got the same one I had in 2016. They were bigots, too.

"Whether by colluding with right-wing outlets to go after Muslim elected officials or hounding family members, legitimate media outlets have a responsibility not to fan the flames of hate," her spokesman told the paper. "Continuing to do so is not only demeaning to Ilhan, but to her entire family."

Between 2016 and 2019, reporters including Preya Samsundar at Minnesota's Alpha News and David Steinberg at PJ Media also added a trove of information supporting the proposition that Omar had married her brother in 2009. In 2019, I published Steinberg's illustrated summary, "Tying up loose threads in the curious case," on Power Line.

It lays out in meticulous detail what several Somali sources relayed both to him and to me, as well as social media posts that make it clear Elmi is Omar's brother. Omar entered the United States in 1995 as a fraudulent member of the Omar family, which was granted asylum in the United States and settled in Arlington, Va., along with her sister Sahra and her father Nur Said. The rest of Omar's genetic family, the Elmi family--a sister, Leila, and Mohamed and Ahmed--was granted asylum in the United Kingdom.

Social media posts throughout the years show Omar and her siblings in both the United States and the United Kingdom referring to each other, and to their father, as such. It is not difficult to track.

Miranda Divine previously reported that a highly-incurious FBI refused to investigate this crime and let the, get this, statute of limitations run.

Only hours after Minnesota GOP operative Anton Lazarro posted online DNA evidence that allegedly shows Rep. Ilhan Omar was once married to her brother, the FBI busted him.

The test results stated there is a 99.999998 percent chance that Omar and her second husband, Ahmed Elmi, now her ex-husband, are siblings, according to an analysis by British company Endeavor DNA Laboratories. But before Lazarro could share the results with the media, he was arrested Thursday on underage sex-trafficking charges and jailed pending a court hearing Monday.

His website, IlhanOmarDNA.com, containing the DNA test results, was online briefly before it was taken down Wednesday.

Lazarro and a group of conservative donors had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on three continents hiring private investigators to track down Elmi Omar's ex-husband in the UK and procure his DNA from a drinking straw. Omar's DNA, Lazarro's website claimed, was extracted from saliva on a cigarette butt she was photographed smoking.

Omar previously has denied Elmi is her brother, calling the claim "absolutely false," "absurd" and "offensive."

Special Agent Joy Hess, from the FBI's Twin Cities field office, which investigated allegations that Omar married her brother Elmi to get around US immigration laws, says the "statute of limitations" had run out on the case. In a recorded conversation with an associate of Lazarro, posted on his website Wednesday, Hess also said the FBI could not pursue the case because Omar's ex-husband Elmi had moved overseas.

"The statute of limitations is over," she said. "According to the US Attorney's office The Statute of Limitations is not something we can overcome in that matter ... The individual in question left the country so there's nothing to [do]."

Lot of that going round.

18 The problem with playing games using statutes of limitations as is becoming common practice now is that it incentivizes desperate people and demagogues. Let's say you are as mentally unstable as DeNiro in Taxi Driver or the main character in the 2019 Joker movie. Such a person will have a hue incentive to off someone who everyone knows is guilty, but who escaped punishment because of 'muh statute of limitations'.

Given that the people abusing this aren't randos hoping no one noticed their drug habit decades ago, a person who wanted a movement that was half political movement and half street paramilitary could easily gain popularity murdering swamp creatures who get off like this. To some extent that is what got Mussolini and Hitler into power.

19 Rogers accused ICE of operating as a "rogue agency" and claimed it routinely fails to maintain accurate records, adding that Omar's office would welcome the chance to review any documentation ICE says it has.

Or, alternatively, Omar and her son could provide any documentation they say they have.

Surely the son of Omar would have recorded a racist ICE officer profiling him as a Somali who needed an ID check.

Fraud usually tolls the statute of limitations.
But, the agent was doing more than that, by saying there was fraud but that they couldn't pursue it, she set the date when the limitations clock did begin to run.

Which is to say, it hadn't run then, but it's definitely run now.

Anyway, who fucking cares about the law?

92 Omar earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science and international studies from North Dakota State University in 2011.
Following her undergraduate studies, Omar served as a policy fellow at the University of Minnesota’s Humphrey School of Public Affairs. Her professional career began as a community nutrition educator at the University of Minnesota, a role she held from 2006 to 2009 in the Greater Minneapolis–Saint Paul area. She also worked as a child nutrition outreach coordinator with the Minnesota Department of Education between 2012 and 2013.


She taught community nutrition and worked in child nutrition in Minneapolis.

Seven years later her community commits the probably the biggest government fraud case in history by child nutrition outreach.

"At first, I commented that Trump was out of line for commenting on Rob Reiner's death. I was wrong. It was entirely appropriate. Trump was the center of Rob Reiner's universe. Reiner was wholly devoted to Donald Trump. He literally dedicated the last ten years of his life to Trump the way a Priest would dedicate his life to Christ. Every thought and action Reiner had for the past decade was passed through the lens of Trump. He tweeted over 20k times about Trump since 2016. His career, family, children, and friends fell by the wayside. Trump was his life, and Trump was right ot comment on his death. It would be disrespectful for him not to. TDS is real, and Rob Reiner died from it."

Rob Reiner was an active member of Team Coup.
He was working with people like Bill Kristol and Norm Eisen to oust Trump and have him tried for treason. Not any run of the mill lefty:

https://tinyurl.com/5h7jvwjk

Rob Reiner and his wife Michelle helped Norm Eisen create one of his lawfare nonprofits, in the name of democracy of course.

Apparently Norm and Rob were scheduled to meet yesterday to discuss the 2026 elections.

Rob Reiner’s attacks on Trump were no doubt about character assassination which is a color revolution tactic that Norm employs often.

It would be great if that's true. That he's now able to be a vocal critic of the organization, in ways he was not BEFORE he got there, and ways he certainly could not while he was there.

We shall see.

Well, AI sez that if you obtain U.S. citizenship fraudulently, the government can initiate denaturalization proceedings and there's no time limit.

207 More on Reiner's connections to the Trump coup attempt:

@amuse
FLASHBACK: Long before today’s revelations, Rob Reiner was tied to Russiagate. He founded an NGO with Brennan and Clapper that pushed the collusion hoax against President Trump. Hollywood and intelligence insiders worked together.

Rob Reiner was not a bystander during Russiagate. In 2017, he founded the Committee to Investigate Russia, a political NGO that promoted the Russiagate hoax. Former CIA Director John Brennan and DNI James Clapper served on its advisory board, giving intelligence world credibility to a partisan effort. The group’s mission was clear: cripple President Trump and question the legitimacy of the 2016 election.

208 Mixed about Reiner, no doubt a son of a very successful and hard core Leftist can live a normal life. Probably never had to earn his own way so ended up a train wreck. Doesn't happen to all in his situation but does to many, without the murder parts.

If the walls really did close in on Ilhan, I bet she would flee the country on a plane full of cash and gold before she'd sit in a courtroom and provide testimony.

Then she'd set up headquarters in Somalia and get to work as an official enemy of America.

211 First thing I would ask is, "WHAT statute of limitations"? Cite it, please.

Also: IIRC we used to kick Nazi concentration camp guards and the like who lied on their green card and citizenship applications, LONG after WWII, and deported them.

213 She married her brother, so others are within reason to assume and accuse her of consummating it. Alinsky would agree. Hey, it's their rules, right?
Posted by: Lizzy at December 17, 2025 06:05 PM (H3ACd)


Considering the culture from which she came, Ilhan probably can't feel 'down there' anyway. She could be Messalina and the only thing you might get out of her is a grunt or two.

So are we to understand that Ilhan is the only nookie he's ever had?

215 If there is immigration fraud, that does not make her a citizen. There is no statute of limitations on being an non-citizen. Also, the immigration fraud was continual, so how can that SoL run out?

216 Good evening ladies, gentlemen, both, neither, and all points between and betwixt, we are at this press conference whose Podium is made with only fair trade driftwood from the Sandwich Islands on land formerly housing a wonderful Adult Day Care facility owned by the Arapazowie Tribal Council to discuss ongoing updates to the assault on the Home Economics Study Group in Kitchen Five at The University of Portland State University.

There has been a pattern of speculation and miseducated guesswork undermining our intrepid efforts in the pursuit of the perhaps misunderstood alleged perpetrator of this expression of possible violence allegedly yelling or not yelling some audible shout before shooting and murdering two students.

In the interest of placating public anxiety FIB Portland is please to show a 15 second clip of a subject that may or may not be the alleged shooter, we can also confirm that this black-clad simian possibly masked, possibly of terrestrial origin can be confirmed at this time to be utilizing bipedal locomotion with a pattern of mobility that can be termed a gait.

217 Ilhan Omar is not a citizen if any Statute of Limitations ran out. Whether or not she can be prosecuted for the fraud is a different matter. However, there is a non-citizen sitting in the House of Representatives who has pledged her loyalty to the President of Somalia.

As always remain alarmed, but not riotous, and continue in your sustained vigilance for the malefactor.

219 >>>Lyons, however, told Fox News Digital that ICE has "absolutely zero record" of any officers or agents stopping Omar's son.

>>>Spokeswoman Jacklyn Rogers said the congresswoman is standing by her account [...] adding that Omar's office would welcome the chance to review any documentation ICE says it has.

Yes, we have the documentation for your review right here. It's the huge pile of nothing.
