It turns out:
1) Woman was local and parental units have forbidden her from their home
2) She released from the clink today. She was in there due to 3 missed court dates for a shoplifting arrest
3) All the local homeless shelters wouldn't take her in due to previous disruptions/bad acting
4) No local friends will host her either due to past indiscretions
No one can sniff out a BS story faster than the Mrs.

Been a busy day in Kansas. Saw three houses -- well, two; one was already "under contract" after we drove 15 minutes (at a fun 80mph at least) to get to it. One needed a LOT of work. The third was . . . generic. Nice, and I could see things I could do to make it mine. But home insurance and property taxes in Kansas are insane. Indiana has now moved back to the top in the rankings as a Wolfus bolthole. (KS is great as far as car insurance goes, though.)
In the meantime, I have one more day here, and tomorrow I'll drive up to the famous cowtown Abilene for breakfast and to see what I can see.

**************************
So the woman is infamous if no shelter will take her. Tells a good tale of reform.
In FL, when I was a RN case manager in the ED of the med center, there was a shelter where they'd have to do a tiny bit of work for room and board. No booze, no drugs, no fighting. Men only.
The shelter had a list of those who could not go there for one or all the reasons. Some would tell me they did not wanna work, and tell me they were on the list! Whine! UGH. Don't miss those days, which are far worse a decade later. You had to be dishcharged to a "safe" place vs kicked to the curb.
If the patient had a wound or pneumonia we would taxi them to a motel (known for bad wimmen) for 3 nights. Paid by the hospital or taxes, plus free meds.
One old guy, when I was new to the job, charmed me with his Irish accent. Pneumonia. Swore he'd quit and change. The ED docs told me he would not and they were correct. Months later I saw him drunk and dancing a jig at an art's festival street fair. Drunk as any Irishman could possibly be.
The stories I could tell...

I can't read stories like that and I am pretty hardened after over 5yrs in a busy ED with Trauma Service.
If the story in the news is about a baby or child I see the headlines and nope! I can't handle it.
Somehow, with one exception, on my days off I missed the worst of bad stuff with kids or teens. My HS boys were driving at the time, and I missed those car accidents my partner dealt with (there were two of us job sharing). I am thankful I was spared.
I was stuck in a room with a child abuser once. Shaken baby syndrome of a 1yr old we were flying out to Orlando. The sheriff told me to not let on we knew he was guilty, so I played it cool but was not happy to be alone with him. They wanted to wait for tests before his arrest. So I remember that one.

The idiom "to steal someone's thunder" originated in the early 18th century with English playwright and critic John Dennis. The Origin Story The Invention: In 1709, John Dennis created a new, realistic thunder-making machine (likely involving rolling sheets of tin) for his play Appius and Virginia. The Failure: His play was not successful and closed quickly at the Drury Lane Theatre. The Theft: Shortly after, Dennis attended a performance of Macbeth at the same theater and discovered the producers were using his thunder machine. The Reaction: Outraged, Dennis allegedly exclaimed: "Damn them; they will not let my play run, but they steal my thunder!"
A quick video about the phrase. It's from the BBC so you know it's real. (Taps nose.) A history of stage lightning, thunder, and rain effects. Ghost bird look like dragon frog Ghost Rider Halloween costume. Ghost plane. Slasher movie doggies. Putting a Boston Dynamics robot dog into a dog costume. It's creepy.
Okay so this one isn't spooky, but only because it's in broad daylight with a blue sky. Try to imagine it at night with a moon hanging over it. Snaggle-toothed snake-eel is a Democrat Congresswoman 7. Freeway spook.

He's been bird crazy since he discovered the bird nest in a hanging basket a week ago.Moving the plant to the garage in the event of a freeze and snow. A regular ornithologist now, you know.
Making dinner (I married someone who cooks) he is discussing pelicans who can swallow ducks whole. Then the visciousness of sibling eaglets pushing others out of the nest (these youtubes he likes because the commenters go nuts/weep due to cruelty and where is the mother eagle?).
The red finch family on the front porch and his wife may go insane soonish.
He did quit messing with the birds at least as they chirp at him in angry voices. At one point he put the hanging basket on a chain which resulted in a carnival ride for the mother bird and four eggs.
Now he's buying a new camera and I don't ask why. There is already a camera on them and no one cares but our 5yr old granddaughter. He's told her the eggs hatch in 2wks.

Nor have I. IN the French Quarter near where I lived as a kid, there's the famous LaLaurie Mansion which is supposedly haunted by the ghosts of slaves the owner, Madame LaLaurie, tortured in the attic. And there is a white stone apartment building about a block and a half from my old place which is also supposedly haunted. Never knew anybody who lived there, though.
The producers of the 1966 film Hotel w/ Rod Taylor, which was set and filmed in NO, used the exterior of the latter as a small competing hotel Taylor's character visits in one scene.

Then I found out what kind of homeowners' insurance rates I'd be paying for even a small inexpensive house like that one. I think Indiana (I checked their rates; much, much better) has suddenly moved back to the top of the rankings.
I love Kansas, the people and the roads and the weather (so far). I want to visit the western regions soon. But as for buying here, I don't think it's gonna happen.
(I blinked the first time I saw $3.99 as the price for a hamburger here. It's not big, they're the "smashed" kind, and you don't get fries without paying extra. But they are good.)

I will say that one apartment I lived in with my red tabby cat Arizona in the '80s seemed to worry him. He refused to go into the bathroom unless I was there already. I got no bad vibes . . . but the landlord told me later that the previous tenant had painted the walls black and left bits of black candle wax everywhere.

AI slop is everywhere now. It's getting where you can't trust anything. And the worst of it, as my favorite astrophotographer Andrew McCarthy laments, it makes people suspect real images as being AI fakes. He goes to unbelievable lengths to get fantastic real photos and then people don't believe it's real.

Blackwood 1907: “The psychology of places, for some imaginations at least, is very vivid; for the wanderer, especially, camps have their "note" either of welcome or rejection. At first it may not always be apparent, because the busy preparations of tent and cooking prevent, but with the first pause—after supper usually—it comes and announces itself. And the note of this willow camp now became unmistakably plain to me; we were interlopers, trespassers; we were not

I'd rewatch it, and have, to study the technique the director and writer used to lay the central concept out there in the open and yet keep it hidden until the climax. Sort of like rereading a favorite murder mystery where you remember who the killer is, but watching the technique the writer uses.

Went to an estate sale in the house the deceased lived in. She was an actress and they were selling her clothes and costume jewelry. We looked for awhile and then left. My wife and I were very quiet walking down the street to the car. When we got in the car, I said "I got a very oppressive feeling that she was angry at people touching her stuff". My wife said she pictured her yelling "leave my things alone!!" Me too. Took us awhile to shake it.

You go back and see where she planted the clues, fairly enough (though Ellery Queen was better at that, with more peculiar and imaginative clues), and watch how she distracted you at that moment or buried the true clue in a mass of other data. It's fair; the clue is there; but you have to look for it.
Christie was a better writer than I used to think. I've read several of her Mary Westmacott dramatic, non-crime novels, and they remind me of Graham Greene.

I saw those twists coming, too. The thing is, it's pretty easy to tell when you're watching a "puzzle" movie -- there's so much that's not shown, you know it's all leading up to a big reveal. That can happen at about the 15-minute mark.
At that point, it's just a matter of guessing what the twist will be, and that turns out to be pretty easy if you're playing Spot The Clues.

The 1975 Hutton series was masterminded by Richard Levinson and William Link, who'd created Columbo. The producer, one Peter S. Fischer, later helmed MSW and, I hear, used some of the scripts commissioned for the EQ series on it.
I have the EQ show on DVD. It's very well done; the casting of Ellery and his father was great. The plots depended far too much on "dying message" clues (as did some of the actual Queen short-shorts), but it had the right flavor.

Guy is still going strong at 75 as a folk rocker with a wicked sense of humor. Guitar genius too.
For a sample here is Richard Thompson and friends (most of which were in Fairport Convention), on his Hand of Kindness album.
Song is Tear Stained Letter and it rocks with great guitar soloes by Thompson on it.

Interesting.
Subsonic .50 based upon 50 Alaskan (turned rim to run in semi auto).
That one gun will probably the only one to ever be made.
But is you want the best subsonic short of a trebuchet it is probably it.

Ha...yeah. My fake name is due to her as she was born the same year as I was (1954, a great vintage), but she's older.
I also have not had plastic surgery like her and still look pretty good, but not like her except for blonde highlights. I do wish I had kept my supermodel weight but sadly I did not (at least not Lizzo size, so there's that!).
I must have been irritated by her the day I chose my name.

The Week in Woke
As several commetenters pointed out, the mother of the Next Innocent Ba-ba Babylamb Who Didn't Do Nuffin' says that the 4-foot-3 girl who tried to flee from the towering six foot black thug was "bullying" him. She said that in class, she "pushed" the six foot thug "down on the ground." (Not on camera, of course.) And this required him to bodyslam his "bully" and then stomp on her head as she lay on the ground in a daze.
The left is shrieking that Trump is deporting 300 DACA illegals for "no reason." Like the NYT claiming it's "not clear" why he's denaturalizing terrorists -- the left is pretending they don't know the reason for the DACA deportations. 92% have been convicted of a crime or are currently being prosecuted for a crime. Say, it was an alleged requirement of DACA that you not commit crimes, wasn't it? I mean, I know Obama didn't really intend to deport criminals, but he pretended that was the requirement to Con the Normies.
Last year, on the 13th anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, an unconstitutional program he had conjured into existence by executive fiat, Barack Obama was singing its praises. "DACA was an example of how we can be a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws," Obama said. "And it's an example worth remembering today, when families with similar backgrounds who just want to live, work, and support their communities, are being demonized and treated as enemies." And it's all a lie. Since President Donald Trump returned to office, his administration has arrested nearly 300 DACA recipients nationwide -- 75 of them in Texas alone, who were previously protected from deportation. And here's the number the left doesn't want to talk about: of 270 DACA recipients arrested between Jan. 1, 2025, and Sept. 28, 2025, 250 -- that's 92% -- had criminal convictions or pending criminal charges. Nine out of ten. The breakdown is telling. Of those 270 arrests, 130 had criminal convictions, 120 had pending charges, and 14 were cited for immigration violations. Within the same window, 174 DACA recipients were removed from the country. According to the Department of Homeland Security, "Of those removed, 71 were convicted criminals, 66 had pending criminal charges, and 66 were in violation of immigration law. None of these applicants had been granted protected status at the time of their removal."The article also reminds us that "DACA" has no actual legal force. It confers no status on illegals that they can claim shields them from deportation. It was just Obama's executive order declaring he would not enforce the law against "DACA" illegals. But Trump can enforce the law as he sees fit. Obama's executive order does not bind him. And anyway, 92% of the arrestees are criminals, and therefore not even covered by DACA.

A failed Palestinian suicide bomber released as part of an October 7 massacre hostage ransom spoke remotely to University of California, Berkeley students on Monday at an event held in one of the university's classrooms, according to social media posts by the organizing student groups. Israa Jaabis, who was convicted of an attempted car bombing in Jerusalem in 2015, spoke by video call to students in Berkeley Law School classroom 170 during a Palestinian Political Prisoners Day event organized by Berkeley Law Students for Justice in Palestine and UC Berkeley Students for Justice in Palestine. The video posted on Wednesday by UCB SJP, in which Jaabis addresses the students, shows a full classroom of students clapping for the failed terrorist. Jaabis was released in November 2023 as part of a ransom for 26 hostages captured by Gazans during the October 7 massacre, according to the BBC.But meanwhile... UCLA's "student" council condemned a music event because it featured an Israeli victim of Hamas kidnapping/hostage-taking in the 10/7 slaughter. And UCLA banned the speaker and canceled the event at their demand.
On April 14, the UCLA Y&S Nazarian Center for Israel Studies, together with Hillel -- a Jewish students' association -- hosted an event featuring Omer Shem Tov, a 23-year-old who was abducted by terrorists from the Nova music festival on Oct. 7, 2023, and held captive by Hamas for 505 days. One week later, the Undergraduate Students Association Council released a statement condemning the event on the grounds that it "advance[d] incomplete and harmful representations of ongoing violence." The student council did not condemn a government action. Or a political rally. Or a military campaign. It condemned an event featuring a young person, just like them, who had survived 505 days in the clutches of internationally recognized terrorists, only because the event did not also focus on Palestinian suffering. The recognition of Israeli and Jewish suffering, on the one hand, does not mean ignoring Palestinian suffering, on the other. That zero-sum thinking is one of the great failures of campus discourse today. I served as president of UCLA's Undergraduate Students Association Council from 2017-2018. I know that office. I know that gavel. I know what it means to represent a student body as diverse, passionate, and complicated as UCLA's. And as an Iranian American Jew, I know, painfully, how often Jewish students on that campus have been asked to justify their identities, swallow their grief, or prove that their belonging does not come at someone else's expense. During my four years at UCLA, I witnessed antisemitism in both overt and subtle forms.Seems more overt than subtle these days. Dirty leftists, many of whom seem to come from cultures with no tradition of civil political exchange, also shut down a speech by a DHS official. (Video.) Fox News:
A chaotic situation unfolded on Tuesday night in Los Angeles as far-left activists and students disrupted and chastised a Department of Homeland Security attorney who was speaking to law students at a conservative group's event at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).They are "far-left," but the suggestion that they are not part of the Democrat mainstream is false. They are the Democrat mainstream -- and the Democrat mainstream is far-left.
The incident took place at a speech hosted by the Federalist Society's UCLA chapter, where James Percival, general counsel of the DHS, was speaking to law students. Over 150 protesters gathered outside the event chanting criticisms of the Trump administration, including "No ICE, No KKK, No Fascist U.S.A." Inside the event, students booed Percival throughout his talk, and many held profane signs while he spoke. One sign read, "F--- you loser." The students also set off different sounds on their phones as part of the disruption, and at different points, yelled out the word "Nazi." The event culminated in a question and answer session, when most of the disruptors walked out in protest. "Yesterday, DHS General Counsel James Percival came to UCLA School of Law for a good-faith academic discussion and was met with personal attacks, repeated interruptions, and organized disruption that prevented him from speaking," UCLA FedSoc chapter president Matthew Weinberg told Fox News Digital. "As President of the UCLA Law Federalist Society and the event organizer, I saw students who came to hear and question a senior federal official denied that opportunity. If this is what it looks like for conservative law students trying to host a speaker at an American law school in 2026, we are not staying silent about it." After the event was announced, left-wing campus groups circulated posts and online petitions containing rhetoric described as "threatening." One of those radical leftist groups was By Any Means Necessary (BAMN), which on its website calls for a "militant new civil rights and immigrant rights movement," posted a flyer on Instagram promoting a picketing event outside the law school.
A "trans woman" murderer kept in a woman's prison has -- you'll never guess, even if I give you 1000 guesses -- sexually assaulted an actual woman. SO CLOSE TO PRIDE MONTH? SO CLOSE TO PRIDE MONTH?! The twist here is that the Scottish Supreme Court has ruled that "woman" means -- and see if you can follow this twisty logic -- "woman," so a woman's prison is therefore reserved for actual women. But a trans groups is suing the prison to keep it from obeying the law, and for some reason, the prison continues keeping violent male murderers (and now sexual assaulters) penned in with the women.
J.K. Rowling
@jk_rowling The Scottish government is responsible for this sexual assault. The Supreme Court has confirmed women's right to single sex spaces, a ruling the SNP continues to flout. If the victim wishes to sue, https://jkrwf.org can assist with all costs.

I don't believe that kid was 14.
He looks a lot older, and like a reject from a 1970s Black Panther party.
I also think the victim is a Latina, which is white adjacent of course, but I'm betting Puerto Rican being this was Harlem and she is so short and full of fire up to the red hair on her head.
Not saying she deserved it, or anything.

Something comes out in the news that's negative on her (story after story breaking over her entire career).
She'll then lie low for a month or two to get her story straight where she'll come out and answer the story with her version of events so the lefty media will push that out, and then she proceeds to talk shit to any right-wing reporter who dares to question her new lying story.
It's the same thing over and over.

Yeah, that's it. I haven't seen it in a long while, but it was wonderful. Wait, let me see what Ebert says:

No, that was later, I think and not a documentary
The mondo films were exploitation documentaries. You heard of blackpoitation, and the nudist films, and Russ Meyer ..... well they were fiction stories. These are documentaries that are sensationalist and shocking and often a bit too true.

I don't think so. As I recall, CH was kind of a rebuttal to the "mondo" type films, which were often accused of being staged exploitation flicks, especially later in the movement's short life. The actual animal killings in CH were creepy (especially with the choice of music) but the real creep factor for me was the filmmaker characters, who wanted to make a mondo film, but couldn't find anything shocking enough to put on film, so they turned into monsters, killing natives to manufacture the footage they wanted. Such a petty reason to turn genocidal.

I despise the attempts to combine comedy entertainment with news. It started big time with Jon Stewart and hasn't improved through the years.
In fact, most video news is designed to make people feel informed rather than actually informing them regardless of the source. There is a reason I still prefer print news--a) it is more dense in information and b) less ephemeral, and c) less able to emotionalize and cash in on appearances to bolster credibility.
An hour long 'discussion' of events amounts to about the same text count as the front page of teh NYT. Second, the existence of print, as opposed to hard to find video transcripts, means that more care is taken because that print sticks around forever in today's world, Third, they use in video the bubble headed bleach blondes, the long faced experts, etc. and the presenters aka news readers that have good diction. All designed to impress you with presentation but not much with content.
Video in whatever format is for entertainment or a cursory glance at something, not for lasting enlightenment on topics.

From wiki
Euphoria is an American teen drama television series created and principally written by Sam Levinson for HBO. It is based on the Israeli miniseries of the same name created by Ron Leshem and Daphna Levin. The series stars Zendaya as Rue Bennett, a troubled teenage drug addict who struggles to get sober, find her place in the world, and adjust to her relationships after rehab. Though Rue is the central focus of the show, the beginning of most episodes provides backstories for the rest of the main characters.

FWIW, Sweeney survived being cancelled for her American Eagle ads as a symbol of White Supremacy. She did not cower to the mob and apparently had a pretty normal upbringing in Florida compared with the nepot Hollyweird yutes.

Gavin McInnes: The Organizer of "United the (Fake) Right" Paid by the SPLC Would Not Stop Beggint Me to Attend His SPLC-Funded Anti-Right Op
So it was all an op from the beginning: The guy paid by the SPLC -- who was also, get this, a CNN "reporter" (!!!) -- tried to draw in as many people on the right as possible so they would all get smeared as racists when the "They Will Not Replace Us!" tik-torch operatives made their surprise, but planned, appearance.
More drip, drip, drip on this two-in-one Race Communist/White Supremacist organization:
It's a Racketeer-Influenced and Corrupt Organization.
In the early 1990s, I was the opinion pages editor of the Oceanside Blade-Citizen in San Diego County. We were a 30,000 circulation daily serving Oceanside, Carlsbad, Vista and Encinitas. At that time, California and a few other states were pioneering new laws that required financial institutions to share with customers the files they kept on us - and to provide a process for challenging inaccurate information. The editorial board - publisher Tom Missett, managing editor Rusty Harris, and myself - were in favor of this development, and wrote a series of editorials in support of it. Then we went a step further, and in another editorial argued that political and activist organizations that keep files on American citizens should also have to disclose those files on request, and have a process whereby inaccurate information could be challenged. We had in mind everyone from the National Rifle Association to the ACLU - the sorts of nonprofit advocacy groups that tend to monitor what their perceived opponents write and say in public. But it was only the Southern Poverty Law Center we heard from. I have no idea how they knew a mid-size daily in Southern California had written an editorial in favor of transparency and accountability, but they weren't happy. Maybe a reader who disagreed with our position forwarded it to SPLC headquarters halfway across the country, maybe a newspaper near them picked it up off the wire and ran it - it didn't matter. What mattered was that someone from the SPLC called Rusty and warned that this was a dangerous idea. That this would make it more difficult and expensive for them to track white supremacists and racists. Rusty, in his quiet Texas drawl, pointed out that being falsely accused of espousing such views could be devastating to the person so accused - and that surely no reasonable person could oppose allowing people to clear their name? Well, that never happens, they told him. Rusty then suggested they submit a commentary in response to our editorial, and said he's make sure it ran. No, he was told. That isn't good enough. They wanted a retraction of our editorial! Rusty patiently explained that we'd already given this quite a bit of thought, and we stood by our position. Then things turned ugly. It would be unfortunate, the SPLC rep told Rusty, if the SPLC had to add a newspaper of all things to their hate watch list! That they would name our editorial board members as well, let the world know that we supported hate!
Flashback: In 2016, the SPLC partnered with the communist American Federation of Teachers to pay for a survey of teachers to discover hate-crimes. The SPLC deleted all reports of anti-white racist hate-crimes.
At least 2,000 educators around the country reported racist slurs and other derogatory language leveled against white students in the first days after Donald Trump was elected president. But the group that surveyed the teachers didn't publish the results in its report on Trump-related "hate crimes." The Southern Poverty Law Center partnered with the American Federation of Teachers, which formally endorsed Hillary Clinton, to circulate the questionnaire among its 1.6 million mostly Democratic members. The survey was sent out to K-12 teachers and administrators who subscribe to its "Teaching Tolerance" newsletter. The SPLC's widely cited report -- "The Trump Effect: The Impact of the 2016 Presidential Election on Our Nation's Schools" -- reported that 40 percent of the more than 10,000 educators who responded to the survey "have heard derogatory language directed at students of color, Muslims, immigrants and people based on gender or sexual orientation." The takeaway was that Trump-supporting white kids have been harassing minorities at the nation's schools. And SPLC's schools report, along with a broader report on alleged Trump-inspired hate crimes -- "Ten Days After: Harassment and Intimidation in the Aftermath of the Election" -- sparked breathless coverage in the New York Times, Washington Post and other major media. The reports also triggered a statement Friday from the US Commission on Civil Rights, which expressed "deep concern" that "prejudice has reared its ugly head in public elementary and secondary schools." The panel called for more federal funding to prosecute "hate crimes." But the SPLC didn't present the whole story. The Montgomery, Ala.-based nonprofit self-censored results from a key question it asked educators -- whether they agree or disagree with the following statement: "I have heard derogatory language or slurs about white students." Asked last week to provide the data, SPLC initially said it was having a hard time getting the information "from the researchers." Pressed, SPLC spokeswoman Kirsten Bokenkamp finally revealed that "about 20 percent answered affirmatively to that question." Bokenkamp did not provide an explanation for the absence of such a substantial metric -- at least 2,000 bias-related incidents against white students -- from the report, which focuses instead on "anti-immigrant sentiment," "anti-Muslim sentiment" and "slurs about students of color" related to the election. "They left that result out because it would not fit their ideological narrative," former Education Department civil rights attorney Hans Bader said. "It was deemed an inconvenient truth."Flashback: Biden partnered with the SPLC to "enforce civil rights law." You know, anyone acting as an agent of the state is restricted by all the laws and rules that cops are bound by, right? Did you remember that, Biden and SPLC? I bet that slipped your mind.

Last year we had this spindly little kid, who played summer league B-team last year with us. Call him Ace First year playing, not too fast, not very athletic, two sizes too small for his grade, needs coaching in every category. But the kid has a heart of gold, he is an excellent team mate, he has a positive attitude, and he is as coachable as they come. Typically plays right field, he is happy to do so, and you never hear a negative word.
Last night, at a home game, AWAY was down by 8 runs to start the 4th of the number 2/JV game. Coach made a bunch of subs, including putting in a pitcher who doesn't normally pitch, Garrett. Garrett proceeds to put on a demoralizing exhibition on how to load up the bases and tie up the game for AWAY (or AWAY goes one up, I don't have full story).

Modern liberalism depends almost entirely for its support on people being able to rattle off things that that they "know" without being obliged to actually remember any real information (MLK good, Watergate bad). It was getting harder to get 'iconic' moments to help the left, so they had to create them.
It will be deliciously wonderful when the communists always on about being "on the right side of history" have all of their narratives erased and replaced by new ones that make them the villains. It will happen. It's only a question of how long it takes.

Helter Skelter was the Manson family plan to instigate a race war, and after the blacks kill all the whites, they would take over.
This appears to be the commies and minorities initiating a segregation war, flooding the country, and after the blacks kill all the whites, they would take over.

Also, Proud Boys was started by Gavin McInnes as kind of a joke. The idea that they're some kind of neo-Nazi skinhead group is a total media fabrication.

Executive summary: legit (and correct) demonstrators got a permit for a rally in the park. Park was cordoned off and only those people were inside the barrier. City then allowed leftist (=racist-totalitarian) s**t-stirrers to get close in large numbers. Ditto for "right-wing" s**t-stirrers (totally separate from the permitted demonstrators).
Police then cancelled the permit and ended the demonstration, AND forced the demonstrators to exit out the original entrance - right into the center of a thug-out by the two groups of aforementioned idiots. Meanwhile, a perfectly empty and safe area into which to exit, up front to the left, wasn't used.
Recall AG Sessions immediately announced a civil rights investigation. That would have found the police chief, C'ville mayor, and dirtbag VA governor/Clinton stooge McAuliffe guilty of violating *the rights of the demonstrators*. It just disappeared, never heard of again.
Then the psycho (with no connection to any organized group) ended up running down/killing one idiot leftist blocks away, a bit later.

There was a real ‘Rosa Parks’ named Claudette Colvin. She actually did was Parks was famous for.
But Colvin was poor, unmarried pregnant at 15, and deemed too scummy and low class to be a martyr for the movement. So they fucked her over and recreated the event with Rosa Parks playing her role.
Colvin died only a few months ago. Did anyone even remember or care? No, they did not. Compare that to the deification and hagiography of Rosa Parks when she died.

All evidence pointed that way, and he found a lot of the slogans/art associated with Manson's Helter Skelter plot painted on doors and walls, etc. at the Spahn Ranch.
They were all on acid and dreaming up some of this stuff that Charlie interpreted from listening to the prophets known as The Beatles in their lyrics.
The Family spent a lot of time out in the desert east of L.A., preparing for the eventual race war and hiding out until it was safe for Charlie to come out with army and take over the country.
Crazy shit.

It's worse than that -- the city required the segregation on private owned bus lines. It was a city policy created by the Democrats in power. The poor driver had to do it or risk fines.

the other fun fact was that the streetcar and bus companies resisted the rules enacted by law by the Democrats because they figured a customer was a customer. The cities had to threaten to arrest the conductors/drivers to force the 'evil bus/car' companies into compliance.

IF you are going after them the right way...I have no problem with it.
I don't endorse ever hunting over bait.
But, if you want to get out there on the ground with those things and see if you can kill one before they kill you? I have no problem with it, provided you are within the bounds of the law.
I have no desire, personally. I'd rather be shooting any of the Antelope over there, personally. They taste better.

Trophy hunting ironically helped preserve the big predators living near inhabited areas. You could afford a lion or whatever living nearby and taking the odd calf if a trophy hunter might come and give you a big payday in exchange.
Once those were banned, well, they went out and killed all the predators down to the last one.

I don't have a problem with that but there is a whole lot if illegal hunting going on as well. I used to go to a game lodge on the Pilansberg reserve a couple hours north of Joburg. Huge park but the animals were going anywhere and for a number of years they had a huge problem with poachers and one of their favorite targets were elephants.
They finally gave the rangers guns and let them shoot back and the problem magically stopped.

Most of the crowd during the day were mostly people supporting KEEPING the RE Lee statue. (stop destroying our history people). But the night before was the astroturfed march with the cheap fire "sticks" and the KKK type people. So it was framed for media as KKK versus "normal people" but the (semi) violent ones were Antifa type nuts.
When media is completely on the leftist side, it was easy for them to pick and choose their narrative supporting video clips. The two groups fighting each other was goofy ... like a girl fight (not real girls, sissy girls ... no real blows).

Buzzfeed: "Secret" Signs (and Stuff We Just Imagined In Our SSRI-Drenched Pea-Brains) That a Woman Might be a Far Right Extremist
I think the most obvious indicators are that her hair is a natural color, that she doesn't have a 56-year-old male news editor's busted hairline from being high to the gills on SSRIs, and doesn't have more metal in her face than Pinhead -- excuse me, "The Hell Priest."
But Buzzfeed asked its experts -- its underemployed ill-educated idiot readers, I mean -- to provide less subtle clues and here's what the Damaged Brain Trust came up with.We recently asked members of the BuzzFeed Community to share subtle signs that a woman is right-wing (because a lot of people had thoughts about how to tell if men are secretly Republicans). Here's what they shared: 1. "Women who are conservative tend to be cagey about answering how they voted, or say they are 'not very political' and feign being moderate. (Honestly, all conservative folks can have a tendency to do this if they think their honest answer won't be well received.)" --Anonymous, 40, Non-binary, TexasI mean yes, because all conservatives, male and female, know that you are psychotic basket-cases who will have possibly-violent meltdowns in public if you hear that someone doesn't support your Manson Cult Satanic Religion. Well-spotted. One point to Slytherin for successfully noticing the most obvious thing in the world.
Yes, only a small number of drug-addicted lesbians are Republican.
2. "One sign is when women make excuses for bad male behavior or still support public figures who have allegations of abuse or right-wing ideals. I think right-wing women are really just pick-mes that grew up in and still live around a predominantly right-wing community. I think of it more like Stockholm Syndrome when a woman is really hardcore MAGA. They are more likely to choose not to see or acknowledge negative traits in the men in their lives because narratives of 'women are crazy' or 'make things up' are just the norm." --Anonymous, 29, Woman, Salt Lake City, Utah
Glad to see that left-wing women continue focusing on what really matters, Taylor Swift, the Barbie movie, and other Regime-approved celebrity twaddle to fill their empty heads with.
3. "If a woman doesn't like the Barbie movie or Taylor Swift, ask why. Usually, that will give you your answer. It's OK to have different tastes, but if the reason you don't like them is specifically that they are overtly feminist or for women and girls, then we have a problem." --Anonymous, 29, Woman, Salt Lake City Utah
Yes, this has already been covered, but when a stranger begins babbling about her Cult Doctrine and daring us to dispute the Wisdom of Satan, many of us don't feel like dealing with you insane bitches so we say "Yeah, listen, we'd love to stand around and chat, but we've gotta... sit down in the lobby and wait for the limo". (Know the reference?)
4. "A sign a woman is right-wing is when you joke about or even just mention some current internet claim about a falsity propounded by hardline far-righters, and she goes quiet or says, 'I don't want to talk about that now.' Evading a potentially unpleasant conversation to keep fake social propriety is a society-supported female role, and she might not want to shift the current balance to defend far-right opinions and escalate." --Anonymous, 70s, Female, Midwest
Yes again, you have successfully noticed that given that media and social media (and government bureaucracies) are all captured by leftwing lunatics, we are forced to hide like... well, I won't say like who. Let's just say we know better than to publicly identify ourselves. A couple of ones saying that you can tell a Republican woman because she knows that women aren't men and men aren't women:
5. "One indicator is what's on her dating profile. If she lists her religion but not political views, or makes an apathetic 'not political' nonsense claim, that's usually a sign." --Anonymous, 41, Male, United States
6. "I think one subtle sign of a Republican woman is hyper-criticism of nontraditional gender roles. I was watching a show with a woman, and she immediately started going off about a person we saw on TV at a bar. The person on the TV show had short hair but feminine facial features and a masculine clothing style. The woman I was sitting next to started saying, 'I don't know what 'that' is.' I did not find out this person's political stance, but I think criticizing someone's appearance because they do not fit into binary categories is a red flag. The woman felt the need to declare this even though no one asked for her opinion." --Anonymous, 33, Female, DC 7. "Sometimes a sign is if she says she loves 'masculine men.'" --Anonymous, 48, Male, Texas
I don't think this Anonymous Male has been accused of being a masculine man.
Yes because he was innocent and the victim of defamation and a jury found this to be the case. Republican women do, in fact, believe in facts, not just ideological communist imperatives that they bend reality to comport with.
8. "An indicator is if they have strong feelings of support for Johnny Depp during and after the Amber Heard trial." --Anonymous, 35, Female, Australia
No comment. Because I don't really know what this means, except that I suspect it's a "gender"-obsessive transgender who gets mad when perfect strangers don't want to hear hour-long screeds about them's thoughts about what "gender" is and isn't.
9. "When they refuse to see gender as part of any experience of harm that you recount to them, that's a clue."
--Anonymous, 32, Colorado
Yes this didn't happen. This is what your ideological conditioning tells you happens, and then you get outraged by these Phantoms you have made up.
10. "Women who say, 'I don't follow politics, I just vote for whoever my husband (or father) tells me to vote for' are probably voting Republican." --Anonymous, 67, Female, Arkansas, USA
Yes, Republican women tend to even-handed and view the specific facts and parties in a controversy rather than just Going Tribal and insisting that one side is 100% right because of Race Gender and Sexuaiity.
11. "If she uses the terms 'both sides' or 'meeting in the middle' or 'reaching across the aisle,' then she might be right-wing." --Anonymous, 55, Female, Minnesota
Yes, Republican women are less likely to be Scabcrotch Dirthookers and, in cases where a Republican woman has accumulated a bodycount larger than she's comfortable with, she has the good sense to keep that detail quiet and not tell the world what a filthy degenerate slambeast she used to be. And by the way: You also judge women by their whorishness, or else this wouldn't be a concern to you.
14. "One sign is if she judges another woman for how many relationships she's been in or if she has casual sex. Just mind your own business." --Anonymous, 24, Female, Chicago
Once again: Anyone who isn't a rabid and shrieking Gay Race Communist must be a Republican. Anyone who doesn't fully embrace the Great Gay Race Communist Cause is a subversive and traitor and wrecker. Not giving a shit about your stupid cult makes them an enemy of your stupid cult.
15. "Women who put 'moderate' on their dating profiles are a red flag. I think anyone who labels themselves moderate in these times is doing that because they're aware of how being a conservative can be perceived these days." --Anonymous, 26, Male, Chicago, Illinois
How does that happen, exactly? You don't mean she "pressures" you into motherhood, you mean merely that she talks about her own children and that makes you feel bad for having a womb filled with the ghosts of aborted babies. It's a "microaggression" for a mother to speak of her children. Meanwhile, if you come within 100 yards of the, you have to hear all about their designer sexuality and bespoke pronouns.
18. "One indicator is if she pressures other women into motherhood." --Anonymous, 30, Female, NYC
This is the sixth repetition of the exact same point. Does Buzzfeed have editors? I retract the question. Of course Buzzfeed has no editors. Fucking NBC and CNN and the NYT don't have editors, why would Buzzfeed?
19. "One clue is if she says she's independent and won't tell you who she voted for." --Anonymous, 64, Female, Atlanta, GA, United States
Is this now some kind of slur now too, dummy? What should it be called? A "life-fact"? Here are some more signs. Republican women don't do this:
20. "If she calls non-straight sexual orientations a 'lifestyle,' that's a big sign." --Anonymous, 69, Female, Lancaster, PA

Yes because he was innocent and the victim of defamation and a jury found this to be the case. Republican women do, in fact, believe in facts, not just ideological communist imperatives that they bend reality to comport with.
Conversely, if a woman sh*ts the bed, she's a liberal?
Posted by: Duncanthrax at April 24, 2026 04:39 PM (0sNs1)
They way to tell a Republican/Conservative woman is that she doesn't force her ideology on you. Doesn't make agreeing with her a prerequisite to being civil. Doesn't scream her abortions. Doesn't hate men. Prefers real men.
Did I get that right?

I may spend some time later making a dating profile to send my husband. He knew I was a redneck womman, from the second I said hi to him in a hospital elevator, introduced by my classmate he was "sort of" dating. The simple word hi gave it away from the Southern vowel sounds we have problems with. 'A' is a whole nuther issue as I sound Aussie. He claims he remembers this and the green lasers meeting his eyes for a second and then long lashes (and boobs...the jerk checked out my boobs!). I did not know this for over four decades!
I am pretty sure all but gay men or sissies would not scroll past me. I could be wrong. I would also be very flipped out on meeting people I met on the Internet who had great photos & end up looking the opposite and I'd taser them.
Unreal. Granted I think I've been "ghosted" by a good Dim friend in FL, but I am choosing to remain ignorant. Probably to irritate her. Also probably because I think it is stupid to do this to people you have been friends with for decades because of politics.

Yes, Republican women are less likely to be Scabcrotch Dirthookers and, in cases where a Republican woman has accumulated a bodycount larger than she's comfortable with, she has the good sense to keep that detail quiet and not tell the world what a filthy degenerate slambeast she used to be.

And, I think if that VP had been doing any difficult work (which she should have, at that salary), she would have skills another employer would value which obviously is not the case. So I suggest instead of complaining, she be grateful for the years she received a very high salary she didn't earn.

Poll: Trump's approval rating among Catholics INCREASED after his scuffle with Pope Leo 😂
President Donald Trump's job approval among Catholic voters rebounded in April despite his public feud with Pope Leo XIV intensifying this year.

Yeah, right. "Despite."
Among Catholics, Trump's approval rebounded to 51 percent, while 49 percent disapproved, restoring him to net‑positive territory with the group — even after weeks of headline‑dominating confrontation with the Vatican.

Changes his name from Causey to Talarico to appeal to a certain ethnic group then turns the Bible upside down to appeal to another certain group.
Very eclectic he is.

Other way around. The original company was called "Spice House," and one of the kids (a huge leftist asshole) started a new company called Penzeys.
Another kid inherited the company from the founders, and sold it a while ago.

I could be blonde with highlights into the next decade. Which is/was my natural color before I got skin cancer in my 30's and turned grey in my 60's. From covid I discovered the grey to my horror. It is not pretty blonde white like the dude I married...who does not need this and it ain't fair. I would look like a battle axe with battleship grey hair and it's not going to happen on my watch.

This is such a schizophrenic word burp.
No one knows your body count unless you make a point of telling them.
So, instead of "mind your own business", it should read something like "shut the fuck up about your private life".

Then regardless of the body count you expect to be praised?

I put her into contact with our outreach ministry person who happened to be there also. Also let the office staff and priest know the situation. BUT, was that all I should have done? My wife and I have plenty of room and resources.
Did I go far enough? My wife is there today working so I'm sure she was brought into the mix also. Here's the thing - the church is 10 miles off the highway up in the mountains at the end of the road. No one gets here accidently.

No comment. Because I don't really know what this means, except that I suspect it's a "gender"-obsessive transgender who gets mad when perfect strangers don't want to hear hour-long screeds about them's thoughts about what "gender" is and isn't.
Posted by: Disinformation Expert Ace at 04:30 PM
"No comment" is a good call. This might be another Eyelid Movie Grievance, or just as easily BPD Evidence, because why are they babbling about harm to someone they don't really know that well? And, it doesn't have to be a gender goblin; could be a third-wave feminist who was weaned on Judith Butler and the Duluth Model, and sees a stubbed toe in terms of gender and The Patriarchy. But now, with the trans fad madness, the 'gender' keyword is not enough to tell which specific strain of cult dogma they adhere to.

We were staying with friends of mine to see Cat Stevens, who cancelled the concert as he hurt his finger. The first sign things were going bad.
To get home the next day I had to ride a Greyhound bus (a first and last) through every whistle stop in the MS Delta. We were the two white people on the bus...well, I was green with nausea. Men were smoking cigars. It was hell on earth.Had I the strength I would have cheerfully killed that cousin.

Unfortunately it is NOT politics. It's about an entire worldview - IOW, a religion. By not agreeing with them you are saying "Your religion is false." By using facts to discuss issues, you are saying "And reality refutes your religion." Bu refusing to cancel people - or be cancelled - who do not comply, you're saying "And you can't force me to join your religion or support it." And with all of that, you become a witch to them, able to turn their hearts with the evil eye of friendship and keep them from their Heaven (see that old 0bama ad about Julia to see what they want).

Misuse the word "queer" which means odd. Misuse the word "gay" which means happy. Misuse the word "fag" which means a rolled smoke. Misuse the word "woke" which is merely the past tense of wake and grammatically incorrect. Misuse pronouns so as to refer to a single individual with plural pronouns while stating. "I prefer the pronouns they/them." But, fail to realize that they started that sentence with a singular pronoun...the pronoun "I".
In short, we could get rid of the left by making them take English 101.

No, discipline for women used to come from older women. This is why the very first thing feminists did was cut young women off from their neighborhoods and family groups and put them in offices.
By now the older women have for the most part abandoned the role or are enforcing the bad rules.

True. We have our little arguments. The biggest one recently is that I want large ceramic urns on the patio for my birthday next month. Son has some from Costco and the right color. I was asking if they handle freezing and snow (which we did not have much of this past winter).
The boss of me said no. Some crap about watering them and yada, and he'd have to do blah, blah. I said we'd discuss this later (which means I will win by my birthday). He had some wooden ones for tomatoes last year. I don't see what the big deal is and have had a cease fire (like Trump) for a few weeks.
He knows I will win but I let him argue anyway as it makes him feel good.

Mama & Dad bird took this in stride (or whatever birds do with their feets). They are now used to the lunatic who put a camera on the porch to spy on them for the grands. I expect any day for the birds to attack him.

For that reason alone every man should be seeking out the conservative chicks.

Tucker Carlson Is Scraping and Clawing and Suing His Sister to Claim a $2,414 Monthly Payment from the Swanson Family Fortune His Sister Says He's Not Even Entitled To?
I've linked Malcolm and Simone from Based Camp before. Commenters said "who are those lefties with the huge Power Spectacles" and yeah, they do look like total lefties, but they are deeply #Based.
Anyway, discussing Tucker Carlson, Malcolm said that he didn't really believe the take that "Tucker is independently wealthy due to his family fortune and hence is not bribable by Qatar" because he's not actually an heir to that fortune. One can be part of a family without being an heir to the rich members of that family. Not that he was saying Tucker Carlson was being bribed by Qatar -- just that he doesn't have the big pile of money people assume he does, which would make him un-bribable. Based on this article from the Daily Mail sent by beckster: Tucker is only getting $2,144 per month, and he has to lodge lawsuits just to get that much. So he doesn't seem to even have enough Podcast Money to just tell his sister, "Take the $2,144 per month, I need it not."Chances are Tucker Carlson didn't eat many TV dinners growing up.He's also not missing many meals now. He's a Hungry Man Sirloin Steak Dinner with Brownie 4. Yeah I'm rating dudes now too, who cares, half of you say I'm gay despite me being so straight I singe quim at 40 paces.
But according to the sister he barely acknowledges, he now wants more than his share. The multi-millionaire former Fox News host is embroiled in a bitter he-says-she-says battle with his heiress stepsister Dr Roberta 'Bo' Hunt, over the Swanson TV dinner family fortune she claims he is not entitled to, the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal.Is it that bad, Tuq'r? You have to fight a woman for rent money?
Tucker insists he doesn't want the money, yet his name appears in court documents demanding $2,414 a month.
It's possible that Tucker signed the documents because his ne'er-do-well, ne're-employed idiot Nazi brother needs the money. Tuq'r keeps saying the doesn't talk to this woman, which is odd, because the questions seem to be whether he filed a legal motion to take $2,414 per month from her, not whether he talks to her or not.
Hunt is the only biological child of Patricia Swanson Carlson, heiress to the Swanson frozen food firm famed for its iconic foil-wrapped dinners of the 1950s. Patricia adopted Tucker and his brother Buckley in 1979. When the Daily Mail asked him about the stepsister he grew up with, Tucker claimed: 'I don't know who this person is really.' But we clearly touched a nerve. 'She's bonkers,' claimed the 56-year-old former Fox News host, denying any knowledge of the legal wrangling. For her part, Hunt, 61, a Georgia-based college professor, decided to step out of the shadows armed with a trove of family photos, financial records, and a legal complaint stating Tucker has been wrongfully receiving their late mother's inheritance. 'I'm not saying I hate him or that he's a bad person,' Hunt told the Daily Mail in an exclusive interview. 'I just want him to do what he knows is the right thing.' Hunt's lawsuit against the TV star boils down to a sibling squabble over less than $2,500 per month, marking an ignominious decline for the Swanson family, once revered in Nebraska for their success and philanthropy. Hunt claimed in a 2024 legal complaint that Tucker and his brother Buckley have improperly received a total of $21,727 each from her mother's trust since she died in 2023, arguing that the document written by her grandfather says the money should only go to blood descendants of the Swanson line, not adoptees.
... The Swansons' holdings were estimated to be in excess of $100 million at the time, almost a billion dollars in today's money, after the sale of their food business to Campbell's Soup Company. ... So when 18-year-old daughter Patricia announced to her father that she had secretly married beau Howard Feldman, Gilbert felt the need to scramble to protect the family legacy. He demanded his daughter sign over control of her inheritance to the family lawyers, then set up a trust that stipulated Swanson riches could only pass to grandchildren 'born in lawful wedlock', according to Hunt's 2024 lawsuit. The Carlson brothers' entry to the Swanson family was a little more turbulent than 'lawful wedlock'. After majoring in architecture at UC Berkeley, Lombardi met and married Tucker's father, TV newsman Dick Carlson, and moved to Los Angeles, where she had the two boys. ... According to Dick's divorce filings, Lombardi also fell into 'alcohol, marijuana, and cocaine abuse' that 'left her incapable of properly caring' for the children. Tucker put it succinctly in his father's obituary: 'His wife departed for Europe and didn't return.'So, Tuq'r's mom was a bohemian pot-head who fucked off to Europe, abandoning them, and then, long story short, Tuq'r's father had an affair Patricia Swanson, then married to another man. Later they married and Patricia adopted the Nepo Babies Tuq'r and Buckley, but the grandfather apparently didn't want them included in the family's trust.
Once ensconced in La Jolla, the Carlson pad became the venue for high society dinner parties where future California Governor Pete Wilson and author Theodore Geisel -- aka Dr Seuss -- were regulars. Two streets away lived Patricia, married by then to architect George Hunt, and their teenage daughter, Roberta. ... But Hunt says her father left her mother after she and Tucker's dad began an affair. Dick moved in with his two sons around 1977, leaving Hunt feeling like 'an afterthought' in the family throughout her teenage years. Patricia adopted the Carlson boys in 1979. 'It was all about Dick Carlson and his boys,' Hunt, a Georgia Military College professor, said. 'Whenever anything would go wrong, I was always the one who got in trouble.' ... Asked by the Daily Mail whether he grew up living in the same home as Hunt, Tucker took on an indignant tone, characteristic of his expressive on-screen persona, and replied: 'No!' 'I've had no contact with this person in more than 30 years,' he added, claiming he last saw her 'in the 1980s', and that 'I don't know who this person is really.'Yeah but are you filling motions to grab that $2,414 or not? That's the question. No one cares whether you're friendly with your adopted half-sister. That's not the story here. This is just Tuq'r's usual dishonesty and evasiveness. And evidence does shoe them together sixteen years ago:
Because lying is a drug that Tuq'r got addicted to long ago. Like he got addicted to booze and, I'll warrant, drugs.
[R]ecent pictures show Hunt and her children dining with Tucker and his family at an Easter brunch in Washington, DC, around 2008 and hanging out with Tucker's wife at his home around 2010.... 'I don't know why he would lie about it,' Hunt said.
... Hunt claimed that on one occasion in the years before her mother's death, Patricia and Buckley asked her and her cousins to sign papers that would confirm the inclusion of the Carlsons in the Swanson grandchildren's trusts. She alleges a trust established by her grandfather specifically bans inheritance by anyone other than blood relatives, excluding adopted family members. And she makes it clear the lawsuit is personal, pointing out that the Carlsons never knew her grandfather, the source of the disputed legacy, while to her, he was 'Big Poppa'.So again, this doesn't prove he's being paid off -- but it does disprove the claim that he is so rich due to his dad marrying into the Swanson fortune that he would never be tempted to take money from a foreign power or play to the algorithm to boost his ratings. Below: Tuq'r is angry at Trump for focusing all of his attention on Israel.
...
Tucker claims he has had nothing to do with the trust or the court case. 'I have never taken a dollar of the money,' he said. 'I'm not involved in any way. I have never responded to anything.'
But filings from 2025, submitted on his behalf without a lawyer, acknowledged it is 'true' he received thousands a month from the trust.

So NOW Matt Walsh is admitting some "conservatives" on "the right" may not have actually been on "The Right" at all and might have been a part of an op?

Interesting. Because when many of us tried to point this out to him, we were told "NO ENEMIES TO THE RIGHT" from Walsh.… pic.twitter.com/FfwaFM1hJp
Nick Fuentes just happened to be at the SPLC organized "Unite the (Fed) Right" rally in Charlotesville --but say it's a fed op to suggest that maybe he was in on the op.
Nicholas J. Fuentes
@NickJFuentes Apr 23 The new line that I worked with the SPLC is the laziest fed-jacketing narrative yet. I was 18 when I went to Charlottesville. The SPLC doxed my house in 2022 which led to me almost getting murdered, got me censored, doxed my interns and got friends of mine fired from their jobs
Bonus: The left is suddenly very, very worried that a small number of partisans controlling the media could -- if you can believe this -- use their media power to influence public opinion.
It’s fascinating to watch Democrats like Cory Booker suddenly become very concerned about who controls the media and the influence that it can have on the public.

Even very rich guys can be bribed, can want to make even more money (almost all of them do), and/or are susceptible to other kinds of persuasion.
I personally think Tucker had a nervous breakdown and is not medically insane. But it doesn't matter. He still rants like a madman about insane shit.

If granddad died before mom...she inherited and could do what she wants with the money in her will if she decided to change the terms of the trust.
If granddad wanted to secure these "just for blood relatives", he should have made the beneficiary directly those kids. But he didn't...he seems to have made it mom, and thus Tucker is likely in the right, although that's pending if mom made changes correctly.
And his half-sis sounds like a piece of work as bad as he is...there seems to be no family relationship by either side there, and neither with the other adoptee.

so basically Tuck is NOT a member of the Swanson family at all?!?
ugh this sort of thing is so toxic. first families get dumped for second (and third) families in rich households all the time, but in this case he and his brother are not by blood even related to the Swansons!
I'm a "first family" kid. btw it does suck but I didn't get anything and didn't want anything (except attention which I never got from my wayward, rich Dad). he went on to have 3 families! the kids from the second try to bitch to me as if I am going to feel sorry for them lol.
so yeah, I think the idea that Tucker is rich is probably false!!!

Yup.
The best thing you can leave your children is nothing.

It's equal parts greed and hubris to accumulate wealth merely for your children.

While I told my parents to spend everything, they died too soon. The 2nd best thing you can do is split everything equally and let everyone know in advance, that's the plan.
When you leave folks out, when you change percentages, when you direct things to certain people, the ugly comes out.
Also, have the lawyer of the family meet all the heirs after the funeral and tell them they could all inherit something or they could all fight it out and pay him the entire estate in fees. Two options - people tend to like the option that gets them something.

An adopted son would be as much a presumptive heir as a biological son. However, if you have a will or trust you can exclude any or all of your presumptive heirs (depending on the state). If the parent died without a will or trust the intestate laws would apply and the adopted son would get the same standard share as the biological one.

Pretty much. My father is trying to figure out how to make it clear to his current wife (not my mother, my mother has been dead for a good while now) that she's getting everything, that he's not hiding anything away for me, so that she won't sue me after he dies.
Because she doesn't believe him.

Apparently, if you read the article, mom either did or was doing the legal work to change that (depending if the single suing party signed or not - I bet she did, b/c her other siblings did, and I doubt she was a holdout with mom alive).

Liquidate it before you die and spend it like a drunken sailor.
It's equal parts greed and hubris to accumulate wealth merely for your children.
And look at how corrodes you, look at all these grifters seeking "generational wealth."
If you treat it as security against unforeseen developments, and not a substitute for your own efforts, it's okay, but I know many people lack the will power to do that.
The money I inherited from my parents has or will go to my kids and grandkids. We've invested it for them, and otherwise live within our means. It certainly helps that my kids were all healthy and happy, but if they weren't, we had the means to make a difference in their lives.

This is so crazy to me. J will inherit money. His family is very, very wealthy. He has a daughter with his ex wife. I would never, ever, in 8000 years want her excluded from inheritance when J passes, if he passes before me. I can’t even imagine that.
Now his ex-wife, who is a bit of a loon, likes to cry the blues that I will end up with the money she should have gotten and I am currently living her life or some such craziness. She ignores the fact she kicked him out and asked for a divorce. What she thought would happen is he would crawl back begging. Instead, he accepted her offer of divorcing her flavor of crazy, and chose to pursue my flavor of crazy instead.

We lived below our means to save for the kids college, pay off the mortgage ASAP, save and invest for retirement, save to take one nice trip per year(for certain values of nice).
Anyway, it's not particularly had once you make up your minds (you and spouse) to do it.

You can cut them out of the will, but it can open the will up to be challenged. If you want to "cut them out", you have to leave them something that is spelled out in the will like a $100 or something. Otherwise, the heir may challenge it on being forgotten.

Take the man seriously here for a moment. If you believe voters can be easily misled on issues they don't fully understand your take away should be to minimize government overall and move as much power to the local level as possible. That way smaller groups of people are highly incentivized to make decisions on things outside of what the media tells them.
But his take is just...as long as people I like control the media it will be ok if they are misled.

It probably has nothing to do with the 2400 per month but the ultimate distribution or future distribution of the trust. If this case determines under the terms of the trust that adopted beneficiaries are excluded then both Tucker and Buckley (and heirs) are then cut out. Which means that depending on the terms of the trust leaves more for distribution to sister (and her heirs). In other words, sister doesn't want a Kennedy situation where entire generations do nothing but drink, hit on waitress and try to parlay their famous name to a Congressional seat they other wise have no business being in.

My neurotic SIL did whine and complain when I chose (for my husband...he gave me the right to choose stuff as we wanted no furniture of his parents) a painting of their home in Long Island. She "could" ask for a copy and I'd make sure she got one (she'd pay). However, she spent much of that day whining so I guess I was not singled out except for jewelry.
I don't need jewelry, at all, or anything. I have plenty of everything. However, it was obvious that I got a cheap brooch (because I bought it for MIL when we had no money for a gift), and the rest got her good jewelry. It may be because I produced sons vs daughters to inherit stuff. I could have moaned about this but I wanted to get out of there and have a drink.

Sickening: "Teen" Demands Girl Date Him, Then Bodyslams Her and Stomps Her Head Into the Concrete When She Refuses
There was a guy who used to appear on Ethan Van Sciver's livestreams, a British guy named "Captain Chokeout." Not his real name, I don't think.
Captain Chokeout said that he had been sent to prison for a serious charge, either attempted murder or assault with a deadly weapon. Because he had been a bit of a soccer hooligan, if I remember right, and had gotten into a fight and kicked a guy in the head when he was on the ground. And in the UK, he explained, a kick to the head of a downed opponent was considered attempted murder. (Or maybe "assault with a deadly weapon," the kick being the deadly weapon in this situation.) I say that just to emphasize that a kick to the head of an opponent on the ground. We don't have this rule in the US, I don't think, but other countries do consider it attempted murder. It's a serious attack that can kill someone. Meanwhile, in the US, since George Floyd killed himself by being 320 pounds and a drug addict, blue cities have created a de facto rule that black thugs are allowed to take "Street Reparations" on whites who "disrespect" them with no consequences or minimal consequences. By "Street Reparations," I mean an unconstitiution and incivil scheme permitting some favored members of the Democrat coalition of criminals and pirates to attack and beat someone from an unfavored group according to how much he believes he's entitled to fist-and-kick unofficial-but-approved "reparations" against another race at that moment. Remember Trayvon Martin, repeatedly smashing George Zimmerman's head into the concrete --- attempted murder -- because Zimmerman dared to exercise the usual, lawful functions of a neighborhood watch? And the entire left insisted he was justified in this attempted murder, and that George Zimmerman should have allowed himself to be killed rather than shooting the young thug? Street Reparations. And this is consequence of that. I won't call it an "unintended consequence." It is a perfectly intended consequence.The post doesn't specify the races of the perp and victim. I will: It's a black thug demanding a white girl give him her phone number (and give him "respect" as a thug-harasser) and then violently attacking her when she attempts to flee.
Sickening video shows NYC teen stomp on girl's head-- after she refused to give him her number
"According to police?" It's on video.
Disgusting video shows a teen slamming a girl to the ground and stomping on her head after she refused to give him her phone number, according to police and sources.
The 14-year-old Gentle Giant is a full head taller than the little girl he bodyslammed and attempted to kill. And why did he think he was entitled to do this? Because the Gay Race Communist left told him he was entitled to do this. But I hear he's really been "trying to turn his live around" since the attempted murder two days ago. He's thinking about becoming a rapper and applying to CUNY.
Video circulating on social media shows the 14-year-old brute confronting the 15-year-old girl on the corner of East 107th Street and 3rd Avenue in East Harlem around 3:30 p.m. Monday after school got out.
"I'll knock the s--t out of you right now," the bully says as he blocks the girl's path in the crosswalk, while one of his pals eggs him on to "Do it!"It's just terrific that this wasn't a single lunatic, but a pack of murderers all cheering on the head-stomping of an innocent girl they never met.
He was arrested. By the way, he was wearing a mask, of course, a pernicious thing the left has allowed precisely to allow criminals to kill people and then get away with it. This occurred in Soros DA Alvin Bragg's Manhattan-- do you think he's going to throw the book at this thug and the monsters who cheered on the murder of an innocent white girl because she wouldn't fuck them? Because I don't.
"You stand right here," he orders her, pointing at the ground at his feet. She tries to go around him but he puts an arm out and pushes her back, the tense clip shows. "Get the f--k away from me, p--y," she tells him, turning around and walking away. The masked goon then grabs her from behind, picks her up in the air and slams her into the pavement, according to the video. While she lies on the ground helplessly in pain, he stomps on her head and walks away. The girl suffered a concussion and was taken by EMS to Harlem Hospital in stable condition, police and sources said.
NEW: New York City teen arrested after he body slammed a girl before stomping on her head because she didn't give him her number.

Meanwhile, the rule that any minority should be given free reign to commit violent crimes with near-impunity is in full force across Canada.
Oh, he's half First Nations. That must explain why he's spending any time in jail at all. The judge has no evidence whatsoever that he has been discriminated against -- and admits it. But he asserts it's just and right to assume "oppression."
Woke judge sentences man who throttled toddler to just six months in jail because he is of indigenous heritage and suffered 'negative consequences of COLONIZATION' A Canadian man was sentenced to just six months in prison after being caught on camera throttling his stepson, after a judge ruled his indigenous heritage was a mitigating factor. British Columbia Provincial Judge Tamera Golinsky made her decision on April 7 after the man, who was listed under the initials KJM, pleaded guilty to one count of assault by choking and one count of assault. The defendant's name was not listed due to a publication ban to protect the victim's identity, reported CP24. The 33-year-old choked and kicked his girlfriend's child on two occasions while on a 'cocaine come down' on two days in June 2025. In the sentencing document, Golinsky referred to KJM's indigenous heritage multiple times, despite noting that the violence could have 'an inevitable and long-term impact' on the child, reported CTV News. However, Golinsky took into consideration that while KJM was not raised in a 'traditional upbringing,' he is of First Nations descent through his mother.
'While I acknowledge that there is no evidence that he or his immediate family were impacted by state actions such as residential schools, even the disassociation with one's past and cultural heritage is a negative consequence of colonization,' Golinsky wrote in her decision.

I would like to go on the record as to the consequences of colonization on me:
1. I live in a house I can’t carry on my back
2. I have air conditioning and heat
3. I used to not have to worry about neighboring tribes coming to kidnap me and worse, however, that security seems to be going away so it may need to be tabled
4. I have written language and as such I can bless each of you with my wit and wisdom

I admire your optimism. I don't share it. The wildcard will be the video of the murder, which is rumored to exist. I assume the reason it wasn't released is because it's bad for the black kid.

I mention this because the only thing the media cares about less than an white girl assaulted by a latino is an latina girl assaulted by a latino. Nobody cares about brown-on-brown violence.
I also suspect there is history between these two. I don't believe the thug mother's claim -- she can barely speak English -- that this tiny girl was "bullying" her thug son, but I think at a minimum they knew each other, and this wasn't the first encounter.
There are reports -- sourced from the thug's mom -- that the two had exchanged texts and whatsapps before this incident. I have no idea whether this is true, but it would be an odd lie to make because it's so easily verifiable or not.

You have two choices to maintain a society--either the government has to do it with a heavy hand, or society and the individuals within it must exercise control. Japan is an example of the second kind, the US is the example of the first because we have ruled out the older second solution.
Too much emphasis on rights and grievances rather than recognizing the tragedy of the commons when society is not allowed to stomp on miscreants. Truth is that you cannot have enough police, laws, jails, and judges to do the job that society is supposed to do. And that very infrastructure of police, laws, jails, and judges will instead create the infrastructure of a police state.

There was no evidence that the man was a child predator, police said. The suspect has been sentenced to prison.
DOWNINGTOWN, PA — A Downingtown man was sentenced to 8.5 to 17 years in state prison for a "vigilante" attack on a 73-year-old man whom he claimed was a pedophile, police said.
There is no evidence that the victim was a child predator, the Chester County District Attorney's Office said.
The incident occurred on May 20, 2024.
Ahmad Al-Azzam, 20, originally attempted to befriend the elderly victim on a dating site, according to police.
He posed as a delivery driver, broke into the victim's home, bound his hands, and severely beat him while "interrogating" him, police said.
Al-Azzam used both his fists and a hammer to hit the man, (elderly cancer patient who has passed on) filming the assault and posting it on social media, police said. (Much more followed.)
Convicted of robbery, kidnapping, and more w/8.5 to 17 years in state prison. A separate, similar incident, which authorities said occurred in Mt. Laurel, NJ is under investigation.
Manipulated on the internet, says family in a fundraiser.

I think those should be outlawed, except from the victims when determining damages. And then it had better be entirely factual.
As Justice, I don't care about your specific circumstances. I only care that the law was broken, and in what fashion. "Aggravating factors" on the part of the perpetrator (which change the crime charged) can sometimes be used. But, otherwise, you did the crime you should do the time - the full time, unless pardoned. And death sentences should not be allowed to process beyond 5 years.
Period. The End.

A brave manager kicked them all out before they could start trouble.
That is an example where societal control MUST be allowed to reassert itself. Bums and assholes should be shown the door immediately rather than wait for shit to happen and the police be called to mop up the event.
Manager should get a medal, instead, I am sure she might get disciplined and the restaurant owner will get sued anyway for denial of service.

They were not taking the bait in any case, but he still robbed and attacked them brutally.

I have a question about property rights.
If your front yard is completely fenced in what right do people have to come on your property?
Posted by: four seasons
=======
State laws vary but usually you have to post no trespassing signs. Woodlands, often the means is to paint trees with it and post signage.
You have no right to trespass utility workers, in the public right of way along the street (your land title should tell you any existing easement. Plus government workers doing their jobs cannot be trespassed regardless of anti trespassing signage.
Examples are law enforcement including game wardens, fire, code enforcement, property tax assessors and their contractors, AND that includes Census personnel working for the US govt.
You can, however, tell them to leave your property. after they do their job and do not have to let them in the house nor talk to them unless they have a warrant.
A mere fence is not enough. Your constitutional protections are greatest at the immediate area around the house and lessen as distance increases.

It is rather like "gender" that way. A nonsense word in the context of sex characteristics.

You should still post a No Trespassing sign, along with a No Soliciting sign.
But, then understand gov't folks (including police) and a few others can still enter that area in order to approach your front door. Process servers, for example.
Your response to them is limited to "Get off my lawn" and calling the police, unless they begin to damage property. You can legally use light force to remove them from your property at that point, but almost everyone says to simply wait for the cops to do that.

It also was expensive and did not work very well picking up firecrackers for example and car backfires. Easier and cheaper to simply use datamining of arrests and police callouts to find criminal hotspots addresses.
Truth is everyone 'knows' who the troublemakers are--but residents are reluctant to go to court over it because courts no longer put the perps in jail or prison. And sometimes the gangs threaten the witnesses.
If you eliminated about 2-3 percent of teh US population by capital punishment for violent crimes that they are already committing and been convicted of, you would get something on the order of 50-70 percent reduction of violent crimes.

You have a farm right? Then that means you probably have Ag Census and USDA enumerators wandering around. They are required to 'impute' by looking around if you do not do the queries but not inside the house.
If they are looking in the windows and filming, then they are probably not Census workers but working for tax assessors (and code enforcement). Could also be people posing as workers and casing the place.
The correct way to complain is contact the local congress critter's office and/or the state Ag Statistics office if USDA enumerators are the problem.
As someone who used to do that, I never peered into windows nor trying to film the inside of a house. That sounds more like a pretext for perhaps looking for illegal grow farms in CA. Some counties are going way over the line in CA by trying to tax and fine people for that.

Mark your property as no trespass and no solicitation and put a gate on the driveway to prevent them using it.
I used to have problems with solicitors and other nuisances so I have my property marked nowadays. Security exterior storm doors as well.
Secure Elegance is one such (Larson) from Lowes and another is from Home Depot (Anderson I think). Full view ballistic glass that will take a baseball bat beating plus three locking prongs at the top, center, and bottom of the door. Runs about 3-400. The old standby of wrought iron also still exists.
I strongly advise people to harden the exterior of the home including doors as a security precaution.

Not entirely true. Yes, for installs. The guys digging in your front easement to run cable? Maybe not. If they're going around the neighborhood notifying everyone of the impending cable runs in their easement, probably no appointment, but they dang well should be wearing company colors when they do that. There are still a few who incentivize someone doing an install run to knock on neighbors' doors and ask if they'd like service, too (and hand you a company card with phone #s/websites on it).

That is not a legitimate surveyor if they are asking questions about guns. Either criminals casing the place or a pretext law enforcement investigation about firearms if that is the case.
The Census CPS or the decennial census does NOT have any questions about firearms or ownership. I looked up the specific questionnaires which are online at the Census Bureau.
For the most part, the Census CPS is conducted by mail first with you only having to deal with CPS to confirm who you are to begin with. I have been a respondent in the past and the questions were mainly about employment and finances.
Contact the regional supervisors and your Senator or Congress critter to report bad behavior.

Get cameras. I recommend EuFy as a cheap and non online (unless you want it) source. Amazon carries them. Start with doorbell camera set and central receiver and expand if you feel comfortable with them. Costco has something similar.
That way, Mr. Scarhead would be on camera and you could ask law enforcement to do something about a distinct person. They can take the video and run it through visual crime databases to identify if necessary.
Ring and others that rely on putting your video online somewhere in the cloud are liable for law enforcement overreach (by simply asking Amazon, etc. to hand over footage) and cost of subscription.

Unfortunately, outbuildings distant from the home curtilage are treated as open fields so a Census worker has the same protections as a game warden. See Oliver v. United States (1984) to explain open fields doctrine. You can find common sense interpretations of that court decision via that keyword search.
But, you need to find out before 2030 about what exactly is listed as residences in the database of your outbuildings. Something is in the database, perhaps from decades ago. As a result, you will get annoyed again. California with its illegals and homeless problems is particularly known for squatters and residents that are not in established legal residences.

The filming inside the house is NOT something any Census training does. That is in fact a violation of privacy and and most probably would result in the firing of the individual involved if reported to the right person.
That person was fishing for something and given the fact that these are temporary positions for most of the enumerators, not permanent, they were looking for something to report to someone else not involved with the Census.
The actual Census is pretty straightforward and handled by mail in almost all cases except refusals. Then they send the person out. CPS is different but again, I dealt with a person once, the rest was by mail and phone. And as an AG census enumerator and State Ag enumerator working under the USDA contract, I never went to houses and peered inside. I knocked or called and that was it.

No Surprise: Democrats Plot and Scheme to Impeach Trump on "Day One" If the American People Are Insane Enough to Give Them Control of Congress
Democrat communications shop and Eric Swalwell cover-up agency Axios:
A cohort of resistance-minded House Democrats is pushing their colleagues to begin building the case against President Trump now in anticipation of a Day 1 impeachment vote if they retake the House. Why it matters: The mere existence of this movement demonstrates just how much pressure lawmakers who have not yet gotten on board with impeachment will face in January of 2027. "This is something that I keep saying to our leadership ... we need to have a very concrete, coordinated strategy," Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-Ill.) told Axios. The Illinois Democrat said the party should "build up the case so that when we are in power in January, we've created the conditions ... we've done the fact-checking, we've done the shadow hearings, everything we need to be able to to impeach [Trump]." Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-Ariz.) told Axios that if Democrats recapture the House "the push for impeachment is going to be overwhelming." Driving the news: A Strength In Numbers/Verasight poll released Tuesday found that 55% of U.S. adults surveyed said the House should vote to impeach Trump, while just 37% oppose it. "That net +18 verdict," Strength In Numbers author G. Elliott Morris wrote, "puts Trump in the neighborhood of the numbers Richard Nixon saw at the peak of the Watergate scandal in August 1974."Sure. Axios, of course, which covers up for Democrats like Joe Biden and Eric Swalwell, fails to note that this polling outfit has a strong Democrat bias. Google AI:
Political Context: The poll often finds results where Democrats lead on generic ballots (e.g., +6 to +8 in mid-2025/2026) and where President Trump's approval is relatively low (often in the mid-30s to low-40s). ... Independent, But Not Necessarily "Neutral": While aiming for objective data, the analysis often highlights areas where public opinion diverges from conservative policies (e.g., high support for ACA subsidies, raising taxes on corporations). It also notes that independent voters are heavily skewed away from Republicans (-30 net rating in some reports), which informs its findingsAgain: Sure.
Morris cited Axios' reporting that more than 85 House and Senate Democrats called for Trump to be impeached or removed via the 25th Amendment to the Constitution following his threat to destroy Iran's civilization earlier this month. The big picture: In the immediate aftermath of the 2024 election, Democrats didn't even want to hear the word impeachment. "People ridiculed me," said Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-Mich.), who was the first Democrat to introduce articles of impeachment against Trump last year.Yeah, this is just other Democrats attempting to tamp down talk of impeachment for fear of energizing Trump supporters. It's a lie. They will in fact impeach Trump on day one, or at the latest, by the end of month one. This will probably benefit us. Trump's voters don't vote unless Trump himself is on the ballot, which is why we either lose or gas out in the midterms. But Democrats just put Trump on the ballot for the midterms.
When Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) forced a vote on impeaching Trump last June, 128 Democrats voted with Republicans to quash the effort while just 78 voted to advance it. Things have changed drastically. When Green forced another vote to impeach Trump last December, his support went from 78 Democrats to 140. ... Said Thanedar: "We have a case -- a very strong case -- so we should really work on it now." Yes, but: Just because a member supports impeachment when asked -- or when forced to go on the record in a House vote -- doesn't mean they think it should be a policy priority for their party.

I suspect it'll be a majority of about 5.
They will convene some kind of impeachment subcommittee on day 1, and it will go for 6 months of theater until they draw something up.
Meanwhile, the Senate will be either a 52 or 53 GOP majority. And it will treat the impeachment as seriously as even Mitch McConnell treated the first impeachment against Trump (where only Romney in the GOP caucus voted for conviction on one of two counts).
America got the lesson that impeachment is failure theater and toothless in the 1860s. If Andrew Johnson couldn't get impeached, no one can.

By tying the Senate up in impeachment hearing after impeachment hearing, though, the House Dems will neuter the Republican Senate. Trump won't get anything done for the rest of his term. Which, to them, is good enough.

Yes 67.
Trump's second impeachment, after 1/6 when Mitch was celebrating that the GOP was soon rid of Trump forever publicly, at the nadir of Trump's electoral and political power in America, only 7 Republicans voted for conviction (5 of them are no longer in office at all).
But sure, they'll get 15 or so GOPers to vote for conviction over whatever bullshit they pull up in 2027 as opposed to Trump leading an insurrection or whatever it was in 2021.

Every leftwing event, rally, movement, initiative, and effort ends up being a fart in a hurricane. Nobody shows up, nobody cares, and it accomplishes nothing. This is a far cry from Trump 1.0 and especially after the Patron Saint of Drug Overdoses overdosed.
We have yet to see an election without USAID money. We have yet to see an election in the aftermath of the recent vote integrity measures. We have yet to see an election with a raging stock market and quickly improving economy coming out of 4 years of dogshit.

My assumption is based on a mix of normal political gravity + the current congressional map's compactness from 2020.
Both of those seem to be in flux. The flashy one is the latter with the gerrymandering back and forth. But it's the former that's probably going to have the bigger impact.
I want to believe that USAID et al getting cut off at the knees (or outright ended) will have a huge impact, but I dunno.

Yes, but: Just because a member supports impeachment when asked -- or when forced to go on the record in a House vote -- doesn't mean they think it should be a policy priority for their party.
It's beginning to remind me a bit of how that asshat Charlie Rangel would always put up a bill to re-establish the Draft. Not because he actually wanted one, but because he wanted a Draft to piss off young adults so that they would get involved, and presumably support the Donks. He was bluntly honest about it, and at the drop of a hat would proudly talk about his attempted manipulation of young idiots.

the point is to make it clear this is part of their platform so people vote for them in order to give them the power to actually do it. Publicizing it is an important part of the process.
Impeachment will happen, because it carries no weight. 67 Senstots have to convict, which will never happen. Even if they did, it's a removal from office. No other penalties.
Once he’s out of office, suddenly he’s vulnerable to criminal charges again, from New York, Georgia, the Hague. Only need one state to jail him pending trial and deny bail, and have him die behind bars.

Remember, Obama's voters didn't turn out without him on the ballot either.
The vaunted Obama machine that we were all supposed to be terrified of lost both of his midterms really badly. Worse than Trump did.
Maybe...90% of all turnout is self-actualized and has more to do with blind partisanship about which party is and isn't in power more than anything else.

I mean, a lot of powerful lefties have access to gobs of money and they could of course just be passing it on to get captured opposition. If Groypers are funded by the Left, then it is not much of a stretch that the average Republican politician is also funded by the left. it would explain both the odd inability to do anything remotely conservative, and at the same time explain the instinctive dislike the Republican voters have for their own politicians.
Maybe we should just hold our noses and vote harder. Again.

I'm having trouble seeing how a demoralized, underfunded left that can't get more than a handful of shambling zombies to even high-profile, heavily pimped events can somehow muster up the stones to win in November.

Special elections are weird and non-predictive because they just have different turnouts.
A special election with 24% turnout is not the same electorate as a general election with 80% turnout.
VA's special election did have fairly high turnout, but so did the 2025 governor's election.
However, when people screech about some city council special election where the GOP underperformed by 20 points which spells doom for us all, they never talk about when the GOP does overperform.
It's tea leaves, not statistics, but it's something, I guess.

I dunno, it seems like a pretty balanced option in a 3-branch system. You'd want the most powerful branch theoretically most reflective of the publicist will (Congress, as the Founders envisioned) to have a way to remove bad actors, including the President, before things spiraled into violence, but it would have to be very difficult to do to prevent abuse, and allow it to be used only in emergencies the public STRONGLY supports.

There was a specific meeting with a Senate delegation led by Minority Leader Hugh Scott that told Nixon his time was up just before the House voted formally to impeach.
The tapes where Nixon was discussing matters did him in. Had Nixon destroyed the tapes immediately or never did the practice in the first place, then he probably would have skated by. His own grandiosity about viewing his place in history and the fact he assumed that because his predecessor Dem presidents did it, he would get the same protection from them being released.
He sank himself essentially.

Setting aside the nattering nabobs of negativism on the left/media, Trump has all the time in the world to end this Iran situation on his terms. Iran's IRGC has not only alienated its own population, but all of their neighbors as well. They're not Germany 1939 - they will lose this one. We have a 250th and a GOP convention as well. US GDP's being held back right now, and it'll be unleashed by Oct - just in time for elections. The SPLC trainwreck is just beginning. The Dems will be crushed by it. Time is on Trump's side.

This is an optimistic point of view, IMO. On the contrary, Leftist voters are ALL in on being Anti-Trump. They need no other reason to vote and ignore anything but that agenda. Those on the Right, however, consider all facets of a decision inclusive of substance. Some, are, of course ALL in, but far fewer that the Left.
Trump's not on the ballot at midterms, and the Democrats just countered that by making it about him. That energizes their voters a hell of a lot more than ours. And, that doesn't even consider the wishy washy fence sitting independents, who go out of their way to tell you about their independency.

Might be a good thing to be done over the summer...and should help your insurance hit if she's under 25.

=====
The history of parliamentary impeachment was based on a very different system and when that system changed, even Parliament got rid of it.
Essentially, it was used during the Elizabethan era and the early Stuart regime as a way of attacking the King's ministers and perhaps removing them WITHOUT being able to be accused of disloyalty to the Crown. The pretense was that the king could do no wrong but the ministers could. It was never designed to get rid of the king himself.
That required a separate bill from Parliament on different grounds ordering Charles II execution.
Eventually after the failures of two well known impeachments, Warren Hastings (Minister to India) and Lord Dundas (admiralty among others), Parliament abandoned using it.
The Hastings impeachment was occurring in fits and starts during the Constitutional Convention itself and lasted 7 years without result.
The Founders were mixed on impeachment and for good reason. For cabinet officials, it was a clunky way to remove when a President could do so easily. Continued.

IMO the best political strategy is to point out how unbelievable the FNM is to LIVs or old time Dems who don't realize how commie their party has become.

If talking to an LIV independent one might add, "they lie so much I feel like I have to oppose whatever they want, including in the voting booth"

Interesting footnote: Prominent 20th century conservative historian Forrest McDonald (first from Brown University, then after a scandal with a graduate assistant, The University of Alabama) was summoned to DC in the runup to the Clinton Impeachment. Skeptical members of the House Judiciary Committee asked him whether "High Crimes and Misdemeanors" should be interpreted to include lying under oath about a sexual affair. He replied that the Founders intentionally left that clause vague, in order that it be interpreted by future generations of legislators. He said, it means whatever you want it to mean.

And to that, I would say that you not only need to be against Trump, but to be FOR something else. Spanberger billed herself as a moderate, and VA is just waking up to who she really is. Mamdani is experiencing buyers' remorse in the East Village - soon to spread city-wide. The wheels on the Newsom train are falling off as people see the deep corruption and incompetence in his CA. If there was one Dem leader who could give a coherent vision on what a successful gov't under their control looks like, I would say they could run away with it. As it is, they really don't. And we're still less than two years away from Biden's Reign of Error, where every single Dem in office right now stood right beside him without any criticism when it mattered.
I'm not worried about these Dems at all. I'm worried about the GOPe that won't fight.

became a shadow threat based on partisan emotions rather than for government misconduct (much as the older Parliamentary method was).
Johnson, more a less a S. Democrat, was impeached over violating the Tenure in Office Act which was most likely unconstitutional ( see Myers v. US which buried that particular act). And Nixon was impeached primarily because Congress had a massive domination by Democrats and the old S. Democrats were being replaced due to the Voting Rights Act in the South that might have supported and protected him from impeachment. The House was ran by Northern liberals at that point.
The Clinton impeachment failed despite the fact he was guilty of the criminal charges but the politics weren't there to cause Democrats to abandon him. Then you have the feckless and likely illegal grounds of the first and the rank stupidity and unconstitutionality of the second impeachment of Trump.
The 25th (passed after Ike's health issues and revealed Wilson and FDR infirmities), is a similar constitutional sinkhole. Both ignore the role of parties acting to protect its own.

That said, I'm not worried about what'll happen if (when) Trump loses the birthright citizenship case. By 'Boasberg's' logic, if Trump were to lose, I would just get the IRS to levy taxes on any anchor baby born in the USA that is living abroad and now making any sort of income - especially in China. Pay up, or you forfeit your citizenship. I bet you'll see a lot of tax exile paperwork coming in at that point - or else we'd get a lot of money. To me, that would be a much better use for 85,000 IRS agents.

Not the Founders didn't. It had a specific common law meaning derived from British common law on impeachment powers. Basically, the common charge of a king's minister misbehaving (even if it was under the king's orders like Buckingham), was for consorting with foreign enemies, violating the vague English unwritten constitution and privileges for Parliament for example (trying to arrest them), and otherwise acting against the British people themselves for money, power, etc.
MacDonald was a decent early American historian but not a constitutional scholar where specific vague phrases like law of the land (in the US Constitution became due process) mean something buried in a warren of old casebooks of precedents in Coke, Blackstone (lesser degree) and even older sources like Bracton.

They had gotten Bob Packwood to resign, and the left anchored its opposition to Clarence Thomas on the argument he had once told a female coworker a dirty joke.
Then in rapid succession it came out Clinton was having an affair with an intern, he'd sexually harassed a bunch of the women that worked for him, and he had sexually assaulted another woman.
And the Thomas standard suddenly changed to "the president is allowed to have a sex life"

There has been one Democrat to lose SC and win the nomination in the last 36 years, John Kerry.
And in that time, SC has just moved up in the calendar and gotten more predictive while states like IA and NH have become less important (and NH outright doesn't count now because the DNC is punishing them).

I remember an interview with Koontz in which he described a disagreement with an editor iirc. Koontz described a small California style furnace in a scene and the editor decided the scene must have an East coast style basement with the big furnace.
Koontz argued the scene was set in California but the editor insisted. Koontz submitted a rewrite that included something like, "And a furnace large enough to incinerate the body of an editor." Koontz got his way with the smaller furnace.

Setting aside the nattering nabobs of negativism on the left/media, Trump has all the time in the world to end this Iran situation on his terms. Iran's IRGC has not only alienated its own population, but all of their neighbors as well. They're not Germany 1939 - they will lose this one. We have a 250th and a GOP convention as well. US GDP's being held back right now, and it'll be unleashed by Oct - just in time for elections. The SPLC trainwreck is just beginning. The Dems will be crushed by it. Time is on Trump's side.

Oh Dear! NYT Cries That the DOJ Is Increasing the Rate of Denaturalizations of Dirty Terrorist and Piratical Foreigners Who Lied During Their Naturalization Process
We need every single terrorist plunderer Cultural Enricher the world will give us!!!
Justice Dept. Targets Hundreds of Citizens in New Push for DenaturalizationIs it really not clear? I notice this is a favorite tactic of the communist propaganda media, claiming they don't know what would possibly cause people to suspect Jihadi Mohammad might not be a great American citizen. By the way, saying it's "not clear" is a very deceptive weasley construction. They know why these people are being targeted for naturalization, but say it's "not clear," which means that if it's proved later they knew the reasons, they can just say "well we didn't know all the details, which meets the requirements to say it's 'not clear.'"
The Trump administration is assigning denaturalization cases to regular prosecutors, which could lead to a surge of people stripped of U.S. citizenship. The Justice Department has identified 384 foreign-born Americans whose citizenship it wants to revoke, part of a push to increase the pace of denaturalizations by assigning the cases to prosecutors in dozens of U.S. attorney's offices across the country. Senior Justice Department officials in Washington told colleagues during a meeting last week that civil litigators in 39 regional offices would soon be assigned to file denaturalization cases against the individuals, according to an official familiar with the announcement who was not authorized to describe it on the record. Two people familiar with the plans confirmed the broader effort to ramp up denaturalizations. It was not clear what led the department to target the 384 individuals.
Well that seems pretty clear doesn't it?
Under federal law, the government may ask a court to strip the citizenship of people who obtained it fraudulently -- for instance, by entering into a sham marriage or by withholding information about their past that would have made them ineligible. Some who commit crimes may also be denaturalized. The government must present evidence to a federal judge through a civil or criminal proceeding, making the process challenging and time-consuming.
Traditionally, experts in the department's office of immigration litigation have handled denaturalization cases. But the effort to enlist regular prosecutors to pursue these cases could lead to a surge in denaturalizations, which have been rare in recent decades. It also comes just months after Trump administration officials ordered Department of Homeland Security staffers to refer upward of 200 denaturalization cases a month to the DOJ. Matthew Tragesser, a Justice Department spokesman, said that officials were "pursuing the highest volume of denaturalization referrals in history" from the Department of Homeland Security. "The Department of Justice is laser focused on rooting out criminal aliens defrauding the naturalization process," he added.
Again, this all seems pretty clear to me. So what the NYT is saying is that they don't know the exact charges for all 384 of the people being denaturalized. Hence, it's "not clear."
They don't, because foreigners granted citizenship through naturalization can be denaturalized if they have been found to lie in their paperwork. Natural born American citizens cannot be so denaturalized (though if they could be, I've got a little list). Hence they do not have the "same rights and stability." And these are not "political opponents," these are fraudsters, pirates, plunderers, and terrorists. They are enemies of the vast majority of Americans -- which makes them, naturally, key allies of the communist, civilization-razing left.
"Citizenship fraud is a serious crime; anyone who has broken the law and obtained citizenship through fraud and deceit will be held accountable," said Abigail Jackson, a White House spokeswoman. The push indicates that the Trump administration aims to make good on its plan to increase the pace of denaturalizations as part of its crackdown on immigration. The move will likely scare many naturalized immigrants as the Trump administration has sought to curtail immigration across the board and spoken disdainfully about migrants from certain countries. "The message it sends is that naturalized citizens don't have the same rights and stability as native-born citizens," said Amanda Frost, a law professor at the University of Virginia. "The government has used this power in the past to target people it views as political opponents."
Let me repeat a joke from yesterday: The New York Times is like Freddy Mercury came all over Richard Gere's gerbil and they pumped Rod Stewart's stomach and found the lining was made up 100% of cum-cells.
Eric SchmittHello! Happy Friday!
@Eric_Schmitt We must be unapologetic about this: denaturalization is a constitutional, long-established tool for stripping citizenship from people who should've never received it Citizenship is more than paperwork We should expand denaturalizations. It's why I've filed the SCAM Act

She and her family lied about their last name when they got visas, because they were pretending to be members of another family that had already been approved; and she lied about her age on her citizenship application so that she could get citizenship under her parents' application, rather than having to apply for citizenship herself as an adult.

In "Gulliver's Travels," the conflict between Lilliputians and Blefuscudians arises from the disagreement over which end of an egg to break first: the blunt end or the pointed end. This absurdity serves as a satire of trivial political disputes.

The Blues return here in mid-March from their winter training in El Centro, CA and stay through early November before returning to El Centro for the next winter training sessions.
They typically leave on Friday mornings for their airshow site and return on Sunday evenings. They fly complete practice airshows here at NAS, typically on Tuesdays and Wednesdays most weeks.

Not a fight, but I could enthrall you with a discussion of if I have a spider bite on one of my toes. It nearly drove me insane two nights ago, waking me from sleep. Then not finding Benadryl, forcing me to wake my husband. Wondering, "Is this athlete's feet? Do I use a steroid cream?" Nurse brain activated at 0300. Watched video on laptop til this passed then slept til 10am (yesterday).
I have no idea what bit me but it is not serious, only annoying.
This is how I spend 1% of my life, wondering, what on earth? What now? Why can't I go one week without something weird?
There! A sum of my trial and tribulation of today. Shoes? No shoes? Bra? (ok, this does not involve the toe, but a consideration if not wearing shoes).

Green card issuance is down 50%. New H1-Bs are down about 90%. Asylums are down literally 99%. Every visa class is down double digits.
And then, interior deportations are up in every state, including states that have never had interior deportation operations as a focus (think the entire Midwest), the border is closed, and a combination of regulations and stuff from the OBBB is making it harder for legal and illegal immigrants to get benefits.
70-80% of those picked up by every government agency for immigration sign waivers to leave, so they count as voluntary departures instead of deportations. And yeah, it's not just ICE. It's the entire DHS. It's actually every agency that interacts with the public because Trump deputized the entire federal government to enforce immigration law.
Agreements with local and state police have exploded from about 150 to more than 1700, meaning that when a cop runs a license and sees that the person isn't legal no matter the reason they interact with the police, there are 1700 jurisdictions that just contact ICE and get the illegals picked up for deportation.
It's a machine.

Hypothetical example: Let's say someone used a different name, and not really their own name, when applying. That isn't grounds for denaturalization, right?

This is hilariously wrong.
Firstly, protests continue in Minnesota. The national media just found another squirrel.
Secondly, there was a partial pull out of extra DHS resources from MN because those extra resources were doing logistics work around ICE, the kind of basic work that local police usually do when a federal agent calls them and asks for some support. MN ended all of its sanctuary policies. It was in the news. That's why DHS decreased its presence there.
MN started interacting with DHS like Texas does.

I do understand the compulsion to blame women for various problems, especially when as a whole they have leftardized almost everything. It's a delicate balance because you have to expect that conservatives are gonna wanna do that.
When it comes to two swarthy men assaulting a teenage girl it's less cut and dried but there's always gonna be that temptation to blame women especially when the leftarded ones (very vocal) went from shouting All Men Rape to... You're a Racist If You Don't Let All the Rapists In... in less than the blink of an eye and it's very frustrating, especially as men who generally have an instinct to protect.

The lack of funding for support is having an effect. MN's tantrum led to other governments ending cooperation with ICE. That's slowed some of it all down.
However, the meat of deportations were always going to be self-deportations.
And every survey indicates it's between 4-1 and 5-1 for self-deportations to deportations.
Self-deportations are people just up and leaving without telling anyone.
We're seeing it in both census and labor data.

And the comment from the "law professor" merits some additional abuse. First of all, the unspecified/undocumented/weaselly charge that in the past some have faced denaturalization because they are "political opponents".
Let's see the numbers, let's see the context (levels of immigration), let's see the specifics. Was an Italian or Polish anarchist or communist in the early 20th century who filed fraudulent papers a "political opponent" - or an undesirable who broke the law? Jeebus.

The stink of a declining political operation for a long time incumbent is apparent. They focus on negative ads, boldly assume that past bad acts by the incumbent won't be examined, they try to parley endorsements from other politicians into faux indicators of support, etc. etc. And often staffers simply go through the motions because there is no passion for a political relic--just a paycheck. The great causes went by the side years ago as their political donors demanded.
It is usually the divergence between what they do and what they say that gets longterm incumbents.

Trump is overloading the media circuits by pressing on so many fronts. He understands politics is a war of movement rather than fixed positions.
The typical GOP president like GWB focused on one big item (Iraq for example in his second term). And left the rest to speaking platitudes and ignoring. Reagan was more similar though to Trump than to the Bushes and Fords. Even Nixon was.
Trump, for better or worse, does not do that--he has multiple projects going on and this term has the proper staffing to continue unlike his first term.

The employer side of things is happening. The direct targets end up being smaller employers, though, because bigger employers use eVerify.
eVerify is a joke that actively prevents employers from flagging obvious fraudulent applicants. You run the name and number, it doesn't match, but you ran it through eVerify and actively can't tell law enforcement about it. Also, if you don't hire the guy, you can get sued.
Also, it doesn't matter what Trump says. Miller runs immigration, and there will be no slacking until Miller gets fired.
CBPOne deportations are tracked as well, but the numbers are somewhat small.

I can’t stand an AWFL, and the huge problem on the left is they have zero convictions. It is why it is so easy for them to pivot all over the place like they do as soon as the marching orders come out. It’s almost like whoever is in charge of the marching orders rolls dice with words on them and they use that as their newest position.
I like to believe those on the right have morals that aren’t always so flexible. But the reality remains there are really good women out there who aren’t caught up in means testing, which is really dumb. If you (not you specifically) want those women,you sometimes have to grab a mirror and address why it is you aren’t attracting them. By the way, this also works in reverse. That was my entire point. And it was said strongly, but heck, sometimes a kick in the pants is needed. You gave me one that was absolutely needed.

Labour has been trying to get Starmer to resign for 2 years.
He's already had a couple of moments where members of his cabinet have resigned to try and get him to resign without dissolving the government.
But Starmer has no shame or any motive other than to hold onto power, so it won't work.
If they really want to get rid of him, it's vote of no confidence or assassination.

There are 26 million naturalized citizens in the U.S. 800,000 are naturalized every year.
384 people is a rounding error on a rounding error. If I were to guess, how many of the 26 million lied on their naturalization forms, it would be a lot more than 384.
That is the other thing the left does - makes a huge deal about problem that impacts virtually no one. 384 is a fraction of a fraction of a fraction.

Everything must be attacked at all ends: go after employers, go after businesses that do businesses with illegals, cut off ALL government bennies to them (because, after all, by definition, they are not citizens). We also need to have CBP check all passports coming and going to go after visa overstays.

I think the administration looks at that as "anti-business." They don't seem inclined to penalize the employers of illegals. Instead, they appear satisfied with processing and deporting the illegals in (the hope?) that the employer will hire Americans to replace them.
It's debatable if that is working or even how the administration looks at the employer - illegal relationship. But it seems likely.

Labour would get wiped out, though.
It's why all the "Starmer is on the way out" stories have gone on for literally 2 years now. Anything other than convincing the guy who will not leave his position leads to a snap election where Labour is much less popular than ever, the CP is probably an afterthought, and resistance is coalescing around Reform and Restore which probably won't be as willing to tank races for Labour as the CP was in 2024.

All indicate a declining illegal presence, primarily in red states but also happening in purple states. The deep blue states are getting a lot of internal illegal migration in which muddies the picture.
And the aggregate drop in US population estimates indicate that the decrease is real and accelerating (as do the official figures from deportations and the border sealed).
The West Coast plus NY blue wall on immigration will end when the state money runs out. Which is happening quickly now the fed taps are turned off.
Trump is trying to basically pull off keeping the economy going among other projects which means cost-benefit analysis is driving policy.

Yes, Starmer could call a national election on his own.
If the Labor Party ousts him as leader, it's not a non-confidence vote. Starmer gets fired, but still holds his Commons seat, and another Laborite becomes PM. If they pick a new leader who does not have a Commons seat, then some Labor MP in a safe seat will resign, and the new Labor leader runs in a by-election. This is established precedent.

The enormous inertia facing any serious enforcement of immigration law is not going to diminish. Economic self-interest, institutional hostility to enforcement including the lawless judiciary, zillions of dumb and brainwashed people showcasing their imbecilic moral narcissism ("oh, but the brown-eyed puppies, oh no, they're being terrorized!!!!!!) - which includes many "conservative" types - and of course the organized, lavishly funded, stunningly crazy and shameless Dems and affiliated orgs.
At least in my lifetime, I've never seen high-level politicos - repeatedly, shamelessly, aggressively - openly calling for, egging on or slyly endorsing violence against legitimate (and utterly routine) law enforcement activities. Even sheriffs and police chiefs strutting their refusal to aid fed LE, which is a sort of cultural norm that's been shattered in service to this disastrous obsession.

Kinda off topic.
Last year some bitch showed up here at our house to do a survey because our address was chosen to participate in some survey the Census people do during off years from the actual census.
We told her we are not participating in the survey unless it was a legitimate year for the census.
Whoa doggie, they harassed us for months telling us we had to agree to them coming to our home so they could find out how many guns we have. They harassed us for months, parking down the street watching when we were outside.
The bitch texted us that we were hindering her from completing her job for the year. We told her she could fuck off.
Finally it stopped. Well, guess what? We are now being harassed again this year.
My husband is on a rant, justifiably. He says the government won't pay the Coast Guard but they have no problem sending asshats to our home to find out how many guns we have.
We are again hiding from them. What a way to live.

My guess is Current Population Survey (CPS) unless you somehow ended up on the farm census/USDA Ag statistics list (depends on acreage, prior land use, and whether you declare to the IRS that you are running a farm).
I just looked at CPS current questionnaires and they are mainly about labor, demographics, and I did not see any questions about firearm ownership. You can find them online with full text btw. If you ran a gun business, then you get related questions.
In voting years, they ask about voting and the methods by which you voted (not who you voted for).
And yes, by law, they can compel you to answer the Census every ten years (which is a constitutional power to the fedgov to carry it out) but the case is more murky for other surveys.
They don't do push charges because often they end up going to other fed and state agencies to get enough information to 'impute' and that includes outside surveillance of your house, farmland, etc.
I spent time surveying farmers for the USDA and the Ag Census in grad school days for spending money in the summer and for the statistical experience.

MORNING RANT: The Virginia Redistricting Vote, Arlington & Alexandria Retrocession, and DC Statehood
The media will not stop trying to spin economic news as being bad for President Trump, but the simple fact is that his effort to re-shore American industry is proving wildly successful. The explosive industrial growth in the U.S. and the cheap natural gas to fuel it have put us in a position for a period of remarkable economic growth and job creation.This piece is not behind a paywall. I’d be honored if you’d give it a read.

My experience from discussions with uber-Lefty colleagues: they genuinely don't see the connection between their policy intentions and the actual consequences.
Have had discussions where in one breath they call open border issues "fake news" and in the next, wonder why things have gotten so unsafe. They will reject anything that would identify these connections, they will have none of it "la la la la I can't hear you Orange man baaaaaad!"

Especially after the PA redistricting 👎 explicitly covering Southeastern PA a handful of years ago, I have great interest nationally.
(A major legal challenge to Pennsylvania's congressional map was initiated in June 2017 by the League of Women Voters, alleging unconstitutional gerrymandering of the 2011 map. This lawsuit, which continued into early 2018, resulted in the Pennsylvania Supreme Court striking down the map and ordering a new one for the 2018 elections.)

As much as I enjoy identifying these laid off USAID workers useless (and no doubt, a lot of them were), another big factor in them not finding work is that MANY Americans cannot find work thanks to foreigners being hired over citizens (H1B, OPT, etc.), massive layoffs in tech, entertainment/media industries, and more.
They are being laid off during a terrible job market, and I could not enjoy it more. Welcome to the Hell you helped create, lefty bureaucrats!!

I mostly concur. But even in a bad job market, if one is willing to relocate, jobs are there. That's what I had to do in the dot.crash. And it turned out well. Many of the USAID dorks aren't willing to do that. Too bad for them.

There are some practical problems. First, I don't think the DC democrats want to be overwhelmed by the NVA democrats as they would lose power. DC democrats have a really good deal going. And I think the NVA democrats do not want to pay for DC's money problems.
The next problem is schools. How is that funding going to work? Assume for grins, Arlington, Fairfax and others keep their independent school districts. They won't get money from Virginia at that point. Even with a higher tax base, DC will not send them as much as they now.
For these reasons alone, (and there are others), I don't think it works.

While exact census data for 1974 is not listed, interpolating between 1970 and 1980 indicates that in 1974, the white population was somewhere between 171,000 and 200,000 residents, comprising less than 27.7% of the total population as the city's overall population declined, a period known as "white flight" to the suburbs
Based on 2025 population estimates, the White population in Washington, DC is approximately 262,549, representing about 39.07% of the total population. This makes the white population the second largest racial group in the district, following the Black or African American population at roughly 43.26%

There should be no schools in DC at all. Nor homes. Federally-owned dormitories for legislators, staff, and civil servants, all of whom must maintain an official domicile in a State. Restaurants, bars, and shops? Sure, all occupying premises leased from the Fed. Employees of these businesses have to live outside DC, and commute. A DC without any full-time residents needs no Congressional representation at all.

My oldest can’t really leave, her husband is a Norfolk police officer, he is one of those who wants to make a difference, he does so much of the outreach with schools to prove police officers aren’t bad. The are in VaBeach. My middle, however, needs to pack up and get here. Like yesterday.

We are researching our family history. Most of our ancestors came to the US as indentured servants.
It's interesting that one of them owned a lot of property in Georgetown and at some point sold the property.
We're still trying to find out who he sold it too.

You've got Richmond as a traditional leftist shithole, but then NOVA where all the government workers/lobbyists live, balanced against the Navy in the southeast and the very red rest of the state.
Simple fix for this - civilian fed gov employees don't get to vote. NGO employees funded by even $1 gov dollar don't get to vote.

But the fun thing is you get a new Fed chief in and Powell out, you can reconvene a grand jury and nail Powell's ass anyway. And the new Fed Chief might have every reason to help with the investigation.
And the prime culprit, fake GOP and retiring senator Tillis from N. Carolina eats humiliation galore.
Reportedly, Tillis on Judiciary is blocking changes to the blue slip policy by threatening to vote with teh Democrats to block it. Contrary to belief, the blue slip policy is NOT a Senate rule but committee rule and can be changed by a simple majority vote (and it has been since it was created to block integrationist judges in the South during Woodrow Wilson's administration).

He lied on factual matters to Congress--that is the question, not cost overruns.
If he lied to Congress under oath, what does that say about him lying to the American people?
This is the problem of our bureaucratic heads, particularly of the 'independent' agencies is that they are not accountable without a president being the sole head of the executive branch. There is nothing that makes the bureaucracy in the Constitution, an independent power check on the President. That is Congress and the Court's role, not bureaucrats.

For flying like the gods, aiming for the sun
But we won't listen, we'll never listen to the warning
We'll never listen, we'll never listen to the warning
'Cause there's a star in the horizon
Waiting to be found and conquered
Can you feel it? The power of its raging flames
Taunting, tempting us to reach where no man has been
How could we resist its warm and tender kiss?
Like two birds we fly, we own the sun and sky

We didn't listen, we didn't listen to the warning

Europe ultimately succeeded in surpassing the U.S.A. for quite a time in aviation during the early 20th century.

He spit out a valve and a gasket,
And stirred in the sump where he lay,
And then to his wondering comrades,
These brave parting words he did say:
"Take the magneto out of my stomach,
And the butterfly valve off my neck,
Extract from my liver the crankshaft,
There are lots of good parts in this wreck.
"Take the manifold out of my larynx,
And the cylinders out of my brain,
Take the piston rods out of my kidneys,
And assemble the engine again."

The wright brothers were very good at understanding and focusing on propulsion, control, and lift, separating those phenomenon completely, and doggedly pursuing incremental improvements in each. No one was approaching flight as an engineer would like they did. It was all just a "science" to study. Once they started, they were going to lead and be the first, as long as they didn't end up killing themselves too early, or running into financial ruin. No one else had the determination.
There is a lot of rewriting history being done regarding other people and their designs at the time. It was mostly all unworkable shit.

Great.
We can send a few bacteria along for the ride at that scale.
The metajets will eventually be lithographically created in huge numbers over large surfaces, so larger objects can be propelled by light.
Although current devices are only tens of microns in size, smaller than the width of human hair, the underlying physics suggests the approach could extend to much larger systems if sufficient optical power is available.
Fabricating the metasurfaces required nanoscale precision, with each feature carefully designed in shape, orientation, and placement.

That's seems like a small item, but it's quite significant. Probably means that the hardliners in the IRGC are assuming complete control.
Just like Hitler in the bunker, they know they're finished with any negotiated settlement, so they're going to force the rest of Iran to fight to the death with them.
Posted by: Tom Servo at April 24, 2026 10:20 AM (rGqqI)
But how? If they give the Iranian people weapons with which to fight, they'll only turn them on the IRGC.

From a ground level view in Texas, I think Cornyn has already given up. With the runoff coming up, Cornyn should be running ads, going around the state campaigning. But he's invisible, and doing nothing. I think he always expected to be given new terms by acclamation, and he has no idea how to act if he has to actually work for something.

They retarded the forward progress of American aviation for years due to their insistence they had a basic patent on flight.
It’s interesting to see the progress from open air cockpits and biplanes, guys shooting revolvers at each other - to just a few decades later near supersonic flight and bombs and missiles. Progress! We can destroy cities and kill civilians with impunity.

By continuing to shoot missiles and whatever they can find at ships in the Strait and other countries in the region until we feel forced to send ground troops in to go root them out.
Sadly, the opposition in Iran appears to be too fractured and weak to ever offer any real internal opposition. We had hoped that wasn't true, but so far it appears to be. A big problem is that the IRGC has imported tens of thousands of Iraqi and Afghan militia to police the population, and they enjoy slaughtering civilians.

I thought you were speaking to the early days before first flight. They were solid then. What happened later after they were established, yeah I can agree with all that. And they lost a good bit of their engineering drive at that point. Innovation was later picked up overseas in the racing scene. You can't be a good innovative engineer and make a ton of money.

Understood. I was pointing out that the Iranian people themselves are not going to be enlisted to actively support the IRGC.

Herbert Draper
Can understand how it won a gold mental at the 1900 Paris Exposition with the dramatic of the wings, 'lighting,' and young bodies, but it's too pretty for a tragic aftermath of the Greek myth. (The wings, for one, look intact.)
His father, Daedalus, had fashioned wings from feathers and beeswax warning Icarus to escape Crete by flying in the middle path. Flying too low would soak the feathers in seawater, while flying too high would melt the wax with the sun's heat. Of course, Icarus ignored the warning, the beeswax melted, the feathers detached, and he drowned.
Cause & effect: Hubris and a fatal fall.

Pentagon email obtained by Reuters reveals US anger at Spain, UK as Iran war tensions persist.
By Al Jazeera Staff & Reuters
24 Apr 2026
An email has circulated within the United States Department of Defense laying out potential measures Washington could take against NATO allies it believes have not sufficiently supported its war on Iran, such as Spain and the United Kingdom, according to a US official quoted by the Reuters news agency.
The internal email considers options such as suspending Spain from NATO and re-evaluating Washington’s stance on the British Falkland Islands, which are also claimed by Argentina, the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

I think what happens in control breaks down and you have a lot of inertia. The people at the top can't quit because they know they are dead and are only fighting for time. The regular people would like it to end before they are invaded and half the woman in the Country get raped by the russians, but can't make it happen. The regular people have no leadership and no way to communicate, organize or coerce a peace settlement. So, unless someone in the military assumes the responsibility to negotiate a settlement it won't happen, and that someone has to have the juice to make it stick. Those people might all be dead, and even if they weren't they probably weren't going to make any settlement deals either. The world can adjust to the strait of hormuz being closed potentially forever. Alternatives exist or can be created although it will cost money and time. Since there is motivation to do it, it will get done.

While Icarus may be dark because he is tanned (unlike the nereids), the painter also managed to convey a grayness in his skin - to make him look dead. Good work.

The Morning Report — 4/ 24/26
Rural Virginians voted in higher numbers than in the 2024 presidential election. We all knew what was at stake.And so with that, I apologize to the good folk of the Old Dominion for doing their part. So if turnout, or my presumed lack thereof, wasn't the reason this passed, then how did it happen? Yes, the state and national GOP were and are useless both before and during election season as well as once in office in advancing the American agenda. So what happened here? Did the Democrats steal this one? and/or is there something else that accounts for this abomination that we're missing? Given what's at stake going forward to the midterms and beyond, we better get a handle on this, not that the aforementioned Grifting Oleaginous Parasite party will or even has the desire to, so there it is. As noted yesterday, this insanity is already in the courts and no doubt will ultimately wind up at the SCOTUS, which given the unpredictability of the court, that is the unpredictability primarily of non-overtly Marxist fraud hacks in black, allegedly conservative justices, the superstar Clarence Thomas for sure notwithstanding and maybe Samuel Alito as well. Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, Coney Barrett and Roberts are reliably unreliable at best. America as founded is on the precipice, because of the aforementioned as well as the direct action of the evil Democrats and those who lust after absolute power.
During the national debates of 1788, the great Virginian James Madison worried that mere “parchment barriers,” or constitutions, wouldn’t be enough to stop an “overbearing majority” from seeking power and stripping minorities of their voice and rights. What he envisioned, in other words, was someone like Abigail Spanberger. Virginia’s current governor recently signed a bill making her state the 18th to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, a scheme to circumvent the Constitution and award all electoral votes to the presidential ticket with the highest national vote total — rather than to the candidate who won the state’s election. . . . . . Democrats have also convinced half the country that the Electoral College’s undercutting of the popular vote is an antiquated quirk of the Constitution. . . . . . Anyway, we are inching closer to a true constitutional crisis. The member states of the compact don’t have to send their votes to the “popular vote” winner until the coalition reaches an Electoral College majority of 270. . . . . . Then again, in the end, the Constitution is only as good as the people. And that doesn’t bode well for its survival these days.
Basta cosi. UPDATE: a few commenters have reminded me that Virginia allows MAIL-IN BALLOTS, and so that explains everything. I should've known as much, And so it goes!
Well, while the Left hand pushes this garbage, the Far Left hand is going for full on violent revolution.
Hasan Piker sparked backlash on Wednesday when he argued that Luigi Mangione allegedly killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson because he committed “social murder.”
...Piker, a Twitch streamer, said Americans “understand” why Luigi Mangione allegedly killed Thompson due to the CEO’s alleged role in “social murder.” “Friedrich Engels wrote about the concept of social murder. And Brian Thompson, as the UnitedHealthcare CEO, was engaging in a tremendous amount of social murder,” Piker claimed in an interview with the New York Times podcast The Opinions.
The ironically-named Piker blathered on about this:
...On the NYT podcast Piker and a writer from the New Yorker were asked to mull on such complex questions as whether it is OK to steal and whether it is OK to murder. . . . . .The answer to both of these questions appears to be “Yes.”Well at least we've seen the last of the SPLC... Meh, I'm not holding my breath. The Berlin Wall might have fallen, but the communists are alive and well and metastasizing right here at home! Have a great weekend!
On the first question it turns out that there are certain stores which it is more moral to steal from than others. Piker and his fellow guest agreed that Whole Foods is especially OK to steal from. A small business is less OK to steal from. But listeners were never treated to an explanation of which shops might be on the borderline between being a place where you could help yourself to a five-finger-discount and those where you couldn’t.
That is because neither Piker nor the other people in the studio seemed to have a very stable set of ethics.
And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
- ABOVE THE FOLD, BREAKING, NOTEWORTHY LINKS

- A global hydra of tyrannies—from Caracas to Tehran to Beijing—spreads violence and narcotics abroad while its most dangerous head persists within America itself.
Grappling with Hydras
- AMERICA & ISRAEL STRIKE IRAN!
- The commentary followed the initial conclusion, and then extension of, a two-week ceasefire initiated by the United States against Iran to create space for talks to end the current conflict. The conflict began on February 28, when President Donald Trump announced that the Pentagon had launched Operation Epic Fury to degrade Iran’s ability to use its missile and drone arsenal against America and its allies. The operation, alongside joint Israeli attacks, resulted in the killing of dozens of senior Iranian officials, most prominently Ali Khamenei, the “supreme leader.”

Dems’ favorite podcaster, Hasan Piker, says stealing and murder are OK
- Democrats on Capitol Hill have been quick to run to the defense of the SPLC over the last decade, even while concerns regarding the leftist group’s finances mounted, ultimately culminating in an 11-count federal indictment for wire fraud, conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering, and making false statements to a financial institution.

SCOTUS Weighs Whether US Has To Readmit Green Card Holders Who ‘Committed’ Crimes
- "DACA was an example of how we can be a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws," Obama said. "And it's an example worth remembering today, when families with similar backgrounds who just want to live, work, and support their communities, are being demonized and treated as enemies." And it’s all a lie.
Obama’s 'Dreamer' Fairy Tale Just Just Got Torched
- This initiative could lead to a significant increase in denaturalizations, potentially stripping citizenship of many who were able to acquire citizenship by fraudulent means. The move is part of President Donald J. Trump’s promises to crack down on both illegal immigration and immigration fraud. Notably, Vice President J.D. Vance said in March that the administration thinks Somalia-born Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) “definitely committed immigration fraud” and that an investigation into possible remedies is underway.

You’ll Never Find This Article On Any Big Tech News Site - So, how did the leftist, legacy media report on this? Reuters, the Washington Post, the Associated Press, and The Guardian all make it sound like the DOJ is going after the SPLC for the simple use of paid informants...CBS found a way to frame the story as the DOJ making charges over “investigations.” That’s like saying you’re being charged with a crime because you were arrested. The investigations were not the cause or the reason for the charges. The charges are over something the SPLC did, not what law enforcement did. . . Timing wise, this is excellent. It's still early enough in the Trump administration's second term that the DOJ under Trump will likely be able to see this one through to its inevitable conclusion. One we can only hope will involve the demise of a hate-mongering, propaganda-generating, money-wielding Southern Poverty Law Center.
Southern Poverty Law Center Story Sends the Legacy Media Into a Schizophrenic Fit THE ECONOMY, STUPID - Pence said, “I give Republicans in Congress and the president a great credit for extending those tax cuts in full.

Silverstein added, “Today, the SPLC’s treasury bulges with $120 million, and it spends twice as much on fund-raising — $5.76 million last year — as it does on legal services for victims of civil rights abuses. The American Institute of Philanthropy gives the Center one of the worst ratings of any group it monitors, estimating that the SPLC could operate for 4.6 years without making another tax-exempt nickel from its investments or raising another tax-deductible cent from well-meaning ‘people like you.'”

After looking at the results in the vote breakdowns, it's probably statistically impossible for those last minute mail-ins to go 75% yes. The cheating by Democrats is so unbelievably obvious. It will only get worse, much worse, unless they're stopped. That doesn't seem to be happening, especially with respect to mail-ins (a perfect vehicle for fraud), let alone illegal and unlawful votes.

Posted by: Bulg at April 24, 2026 08:34 AM (77rzZ)
My analysis of the Bexar County Republican primary early voting check-in file identified 4,110 voter records bearing State Identification numbers with fractional components — for instance, 1,253,115,467.7999 rather than a whole number. Texas State Voter ID numbers are administrative integers by definition. A fractional State ID is not a rounding artifact or a migration residue. It is an impossible value in any legitimate voter registration system. Every one of these 4,110 records was verified against the Texas statewide voter database as of September 2024. Not one fractional ID appears there.
The 4,110 records are not random noise. When sorted by State ID and the gap between consecutive records is calculated, the gap is the same value — 22,084.82189 — for every single pair in the sequence. The total span between the first and last record in the sequence, divided by that gap, yields exactly 4,109.0000 — a perfect integer with no remainder. This is mathematical proof that the records were deliberately constructed. A random or corrupted sequence cannot produce this result. Only purpose-written software can.

A parallel observation appears in Russian academic commentary describing the EU as a geopolitical entity based on ideology rather than organic national interests. The result is a state that fails at classical liberal functions — maintenance of infrastructure, law and order, price stability, national defence and facilitation of voluntary exchange — while excelling at narrative management and the suppression of dissent. This is not rhetorical exaggeration. It is observable.

“Do you want New York and LA deciding all the elections?” would seem to make the issue clear. “Yes, I would” tells you a brain dead leftist is at hand. At least that’s out of the way.
Imagine if there were World Elections. Everyone votes, but China and India decides everything. Does that make sense? Would that be a good idea? Had luck with that argument sometimes. The problem with Leftists is they don’t know what they want, they just think they know what they want, and generally aren’t prepared to think about it too much.

Saw this on X (no idea where, so take it fwiw): early voting stats were closely even Dem/GOP, election day voting stats were closely even Dem/GOP, however, mail-in voting skewed ~72% Dem.

And yes mail in votes skew waaaaaay left. In my county, which is very red, mail in ballots go 75-25 Dem consistently. Republicans control all levers of power at the county level including voting so unless they’re secretly working with the Dems, it’s not fraud.
Every election they count mail in ballots first then, Early votes then Election Day votes. And the results go from 75-25 for the leftist candidate initially to 50/50 midway through counting to 60/40 for the Republican/cinservative in the end. There’s that much of a chasm in how each sides votes.

Depends on where you draw the line on what constitutes a mass casualty event.
Current reports say 10 injured and Vance AFB was forced to close.

"Put all the facts out there, and let us debate the merits of every single case. Without transparency, the bodies are going to keep piling up. The theories will multiply. The tabloid articles will spiral completely out of control. Most of them will be way off-the-mark. And in that environment, when an intelligence agency *does* take out one of its targets, no one — even the most discerning observer — will have any way of knowing."

I retired in December 2019, right before the Covid nonsense, and never looked back. I have always had many hobbies since childhood, including electronics which became my lifelong vocation, with me working as a television broadcast engineer the final 35 years of my working years. Now, I can spend time either tinkering with various electronic equipment at my workbench or "playing" with my large basement model railroad. Modeling the railroad layout gives the creative juices and the imagination a chance to exhibit themselves. I am never bored. A man has to have a hobby. Do whatever makes you happy. At nearly 79, I find my hobbies make the days very enjoyable.

What are the odds that they would both be in Italy at the same time?
Source tells me Candace Owens flew American Airlines from Charlotte, North Carolina to Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport in Rome, Italy.
It was apparent Fuentes was in Italy after photos of him in Italy surfaced online.
Those two like to pretend like they hate each other, but now they are both in Italy at the same time…
Their sudden travel to Italy comes one day after the DOJ indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) for fraud over their secret funding of extremist groups with funds that allegedly came from offshore accounts..."

Lots of routine speculation who, if anyone, might retire from the U.S. Supreme Court relatively soon. Was surprised that much of the speculation suddenly circled around Chief Justice of the U.S., John Roberts, age 71.

Diley, TX - After nearly 10 months in immigration detention following the deadly Colorado firebombing case, a federal judge has ordered the immediate release of the suspect’s ex-wife and their five children from the Dilley Detention Center in South Texas.
The family, identified as Melissa El Gamal, an Egyptian mother, and her five children, was detained by the Department of Homeland Security shortly after her ex-husband, 45-year-old Mohammed Soliman, was arrested. Soliman is accused of attacking a group of pro-Israel demonstrators in Boulder, Colorado, in June 2025. One person was killed, and 14 were injured." (Much more.)
🤷Their lives were less ruined than many families with relatives punished by the DOJ, re: Jan. 6th.
The DOJ & FBI heavily relied on crowdsourced intelligence, "sedition hunters," to identify & track January 6th suspects. These citizens scoured social media, analyzed video, and used open-source intelligence (OSINT) to build dossiers, resulting in over 1,200 charged individuals, many identified by volunteer efforts.

- The French government agency that manages national IDs, passports, and immigration documents was hacked because of course it was. (Tech Crunch)
You can't paint a bigger target on your back than that, really.
ANTS - the agency is really called that - wouldn't say how many people were affected by the breach, but a hacker is suddenly offering an ANTS database with 19 million records for sale, so at a guess, around 19 million.
- The command line tool for the Bitwarden password manager was compromised. (Socket)
So. Turns out maybe you can paint a bigger target on your back than just being a national identity register.

I gave it some thought. But that would cut into my enjoying retirement.
Both school districts treated me poorly. The Directors and above are very woke. I am not.
In Manhattan, they have a guy who has been the assistant Transportation Director for over a decade.
That school system is grooming a lesbian driver, who is very nice, but not a leader, to be the new Transportation Director.
I was specifically excluded from that job the last time it opened, although the best qualified. They wanted a corrupt liberal woman in charge. She went a million dollars over budget her first year.
Could not compete with that to make friends of my superiors.

When the world shut down over a 99.9999% survivable virus, I had to tell a few dozen rig hands they were out of a job.
Then I had to tell even more frac hands. Then snubbing hands.
Then I went home to wait for my layoff.
Then I spent 6 months applying for jobs with no interviews because corporate America had banned White men in honor of Saint George Floyd, Patron Saint of Fentanyl.
A great Twitter friend who I am indebted to forever got me a job with a 25% pay cut, and I had to work physically harder than I had in a decade.
Anyway. Nobody in news media ever reached out for my story. And it wasn’t a unique story, I was one of a couple hundred thousand guys going through this.

I could see that being a deal-killer for me as well. In our yearly mandatory training there's some of that nonsense, but for the most part in the day-to-day work, I don't really encounter it, for which I am thankful and relieved.
If I had to deal with that particular "sand in the gears" every day, I don't think I'd re-up the following year, and would go find something else to do.
The attrition in this industry is ... higher than I expected it would be. I've seen a lot of drivers just quit without notice. Hiring and training new ones seems to be getting more and more difficult, and a lot of that is probably due to the fact that our real cost of living seems to be going up 5 to 10% each year, while wage increases (if we get them) work out to maybe 1% per year if we're "lucky".
So now we have a multitude of positions that need filling in order to satisfy the routes we have locked in for next year, and I'm seeing a LOT of asks from the company to the drivers along the lines of "If you know ANYONE that you think might want to drive for us, please tell them."

John Deere’s right-to-repair battles became a national story when farmers discovered they couldn’t fix their own equipment without dealer-authorized software. Lawsuits followed, then legislation. ... Deere eventually made concessions, but the damage was done. A generation of farmers learned exactly how much control they’d surrendered by buying machines loaded with proprietary code.

I slept until the alarm just now. Coffee first, then a workout on the treadmill downstairs; breakfast; then a trip to look at two houses. There is a third which popped up yesterday, and I'd rather see it than the one in the small town nearby; but I'm here only today and tomorrow, so it may be too late to schedule it. I'll text my realtor lady and see. The one close by checks my "garage" box, but no basement, while this new third one has both.
I'll call Progressive, which has my renter's insurance and my car, give them the addresses, and see if they can tell me what my homeowner's insurance would be.

Of course -- just as I would with a used car, only this is a much bigger purchase. What scares me is that, if I decide on one of these houses, I can't be on the ground to deal with the process. Or do I need to be?

No. I just bought a 2nd home in AZ. Went under contract, realtors are dealing with all the inspections etc. I am notified by email how the process is going. I flew out last weekend to have a look see and order furniture. I will fly out again for the closing ( I don't have to, I could do it from here) but want to be there for the furniture delivery. As long as you have a good realtor you would be fine.

Getting away from sensors and screens is good, but don't think for a moment that owners won't have to know a lot, and also know somebody. My great-uncle was kind of famous because he once re-forged a cracked iron engine block for a guy in situ, straddling a flooded ditch with a campfire to weld it. Not what our current techs call high-tech, but a technology just the same.

The third, and the small-town one, each have 4 bedrooms -- way more than I need or want to keep up. But I love the way they look inside and out. The ranch is nice, though, and I could add a shaded patio in the back.

For a small lot, it would be cheaper to hire out the mowing, as they have the equipment and deal with maintenance. No capital costs needed.
This is not true for large properties, but you are not looking for that.

Super rare lobster 1 in 50 million split-colored lobster found in Massachusetts
A two-toned lobster is set to make a splash at the Woods Hole Science Aquarium in southeastern Massachusetts. Lobstermen on the fishing vessel Timothy Michael caught the rare split-color (bilateral) lobster off the coast of Cape Cod on April 16 and donated it to the museum. This rare split coloration occurs in roughly 1 in 50 million lobsters. “As soon as we saw this beautiful and unique lobster and were offered the chance to be her potential home, we immediately started thinking about which tank to put her in and began preparations to pick her up from Wellfleet Shellfish Company in Eastham, about an hour’s drive from Woods Hole,” aquarium biologist Julia Studley tells Popular Science. “When something that rare comes across our docks, we see it as part of our role to share it with the broader community—Woods Hole Science Aquarium was the perfect fit for this lucky lobster,” Wellfleet Shellfish Company Chief Operating Officer Dan Brandt also tells Popular Science.Oh wow, I'm currently a short drive away from Woods Hole - maybe I'll go see this thing tomorrow!
The team will continue to care for the crustacean during construction. Studley says it will receive a name once they get to know a bit more about its personality. Since lobsters may live up to 100 years, they want to make sure that they get the name right. The crustacean will go on display when the aquarium reopens after a major renovation in early 2027.I guess I won't be seeing it tomorrow. ----- Trolling or just annoying? Remote worker stops answering his older coworker's calls after being phoned 5-6 times daily, including during flights and customer dinners
Working remotely was supposed to be the arrangement that gave professionals their autonomy back, the ability to manage their own time, set their own pace, and not have someone hovering over their shoulder every thirty minutes. And then some people took that concept and decided it meant calling their colleague five times a day until the colleague's phone becomes a source of genuine dread.Can you follow this story at the link? It might be the most annoying webpage style I've ever seen!

For a few years now, I've noticed very few of the well-designed resealable food packs (the flat kind, for cheeses and meats) actually can be opened without scissors. They still have the little "starter" slit on both ends, but they don't "work" - meaning they don't tear very far, or don't tear low enough to actually allow opening of the package. Many of these also don't reseal very well now, either.
These are brilliantly designed things, very accustomed to them going back how long - 20-25 years? But most simply don't work any more. Manufacturing quality? Gauge or quality of the plastic material? But there's no doubt about it. I just instantly get the scissors now, for all but a few brands. Weird.

They chomp through those hard, heat-sealed packages; chip, cracker & cereal bags; lobster shells; chicken skin and bones...
Dishwasher safe! Although I generally just hand wash in hot, soapy water.
I've abused the h3ll out of them for a decade at least, but they still cut! (Uh, just don't expect to cut fabric or paper with them now.)

Even if you have the hand strength for it, it works like this:
30.000 lbs force: bag remains unopened
30.002 lbs force: bag opens cleanly
30.004 lbs force: pretzels all over the f--king place

Reminds me of dirty state troopers...Brother told me he was driving a car with automatic seatbelts, when he was pulled over in a Southern state (one his car was not registered in). The Trooper told him he'd taken off his seat belt while driving and had just put it back on, to which he said, "If you can show me how it's possible for me to take off while driving, I'll happily pay for the ticket."
Cops like that should have millstones tied to their necks and thrown in the Mariana Trench.

Naw, the snail sucking fart darter needs the water to run into the ocean. Screw the farmers and people. As a matter of fact, Kali wants to get rid of dams and go back to a more natural effect, except, for some reason, in places like the Hetch Hetchy. That of course has NOTHING to do with the fact it supplies water to San Fran and all it's libble voters...

My friend and I are Lubbock-bound tomorrow to attend the George Strait concert on Saturday night. Yes, Hubby and I just saw him in Austin, but at the time that I bought the Lubbock tickets, Strait didn't have any Austin shows scheduled. Hubby said he would rather go to Austin, so I invited my friend to go instead.
This will be a dry run for our NYC trip - we will see if we can handle each others' snoring this weekend 😂😂😂
In other news, I just found out today that the pump that was put in to battle my cancer in December can only be used for 6 months - after that, bad things start happening with the liver. So we are going to have to play it by ear in another couple of months. I may end up going back on the medication that made me lose my hair and made my nails and eyesight all wonky for a few months and then try going back on the pump regimen.
Which sucks, because the pump is working so well for me right now. My hair is starting to grow back and I can actually see well enough to drive myself places rather than depending on Paul to drive me everywhere.
We will have to wait to see what happens when I go off of this medication.

A friend of mine was diagnosed with multiple myeloma around 23 years ago. The medical manuals at that time basically said if god is your friend and shows up with his personal doctor you might get 2 years. He got 18 years because of experimental drugs and other cutting edge stuff they did. He went into remission for a long time. He was a lot older than me so he eventually got into his 70's when it finally got him. Still, 18 years he got. You just keep fighting and kicking it's ass like he did.

Things deemed precious but now lost can be placed on that list, I am sure!

My sister, who posts here but infrequently, was diagnosed with breast cancer a couple of decades ago. It was tough sledding for her for about five years and the disease went into remission (without surgery).
She's remained clear of signs that it came back since that time.
What I recall of her during that period was her being upbeat and confident that she was going to beat the disease.

No... The belt itself wouldn't cause the noise. I retract anything I said that would indicate *just* the belt!
Any component that is driven by that belt, could be the noise maker. And once the component is fixed-- you should also replace the belt.

I asked attendant "what's in the bowl?" and she said "tapioca pudding" LOL, okay, so I told her what happened and she winced, then brought another bowl of tapioca.

Well, he's done lots of things: grew up on a farm, played football in high school, then the Marines, transferred to the Air Force and learned to fly, became a hippie and perma-student at San Francisco State, met my mom, hurried up and graduated, cut his hair and went to work for IBM and learned computers, and so on.
But I think that the Marines broke his taste buds.

Cats will do anything to for a warm spot. I've read that a cat's "chosen one" in the house, the one whose lap they're always jumping into, is simply the person who radiates the most body heat, which cats can sense.

They're contractually required to present themselves as exactly the opposite, usually. If the paparazzi ever photos an "Idol" on a date with someone, their career is over. They "graduate" from their idol group and maybe move on to a "normal" music career. Or they just vanish from the public eye and become a housewife.
That's the starting premise of the anime "Oshi No Ko." An idol gets pregnant, and has to go into hiding for several months (from when she starts "showing"), and then has to raise her children in secret.
And then it gets worse.

On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines on the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner, O long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

J.J.'s Morning Report - (In part) Aside from Democrats, speaking of invasive parasitic worms that destroy everything in their path:
A destructive, fast-moving invader is wriggling its way into yards across the US, and officials say Californians should be on alert. Agriculture authorities are sounding the alarm over the Asian jumping worm, a highly invasive species that’s already been spotted in multiple states, including the Golden State. . . The worms are easy to spot, and hard to forget.
But babies, dogs, cats, etc. Cafes are always a delight & a very good end of the day.

Texas voter IDs are integers. Whole numbers. No decimals, ever. The Bexar County primary poll book contained 4,110 IDs like this:
1,253,115,467.79993
That alone proves something fishy. But the math goes further — and it’s airtight.
When those 4,110 records are sorted in order, the spacing between every consecutive pair is 22,084.82189 — the same non-integer value, repeating 4,109 times.

The gap value of 22,084.82189 was derived from the alphabetical positions of specific voters within the completed check-in list. Those positions cannot be known until every voter has checked in and the full list is in hand. The fractional IDs could not have existed before the genuine list existed. They are timestamped by their own construction.
The records were not random fabrications. Each was anchored to a real registered voter. 735 real people each had 5 or 6 synthetic duplicates generated in their name — up to 4,110 fraudulent ballot opportunities in a single county primary, executed by someone with back-end write access to the poll book system.

"The injection mechanism is elegant and deliberately concealed. Poll pad systems suppress decimal display for voter ID fields because no legitimate ID has a fractional component, so poll workers would have seen the synthetic records displayed as ordinary integers, indistinguishable from real ones. Each of the 4,110 records would have generated a ballot. Once cast, those ballots are anonymous and irretrievable. The fractional component also functions as a precise deletion key: a single database query filtering for non-integer State IDs would return exactly these records and no others, leaving the permanent voter roll showing 735 legitimate voters who each voted once — with no surviving trace of the fraud.
That deletion appears to have occurred. On or before February 25, 2026, all 14 CSV files in the Bexar County early voting dataset were simultaneously replaced in a synchronized 78-second automated batch operation. All 14 files are now clean. The original injected file survives only because it was captured and distributed to precinct chairs on February 19, before the cleanup."

I wonder if this affected Brandon Herrera's primary. He got to a runoff position, but it looked like Tony Gonzales was going to put up a fight. Then the story of the suicide of Tony's staffer took off, and Tony wound up resigning. Which screwed over the voters, because there's probably not going to be a special election and therefore they're without representation for seven months.

Texas voter IDs are integers. Whole numbers. No decimals, ever. The Bexar County primary poll book contained 4,110 IDs like this:
1,253,115,467.79993
That alone proves something fishy. But the math goes further — and it’s airtight.
When those 4,110 records are sorted in order, the spacing between every consecutive pair is 22,084.82189 — the same non-integer value, repeating 4,109 times.

No "curing" of ballots (FFS, what an idiotic idea, incredible it ever existed). Voters who can't properly fill out a paper ballot don't deserve their vote to be counted. Obviously.
We're done. Oh - total transparency, in this internet and electronics can be useful. All polling places, all tabulation operations, on webcams open to all. Emails from precincts/districts/counties, whatever, related to actual vote tabulations are public, posted on a website when they're sent.
This (apart from the webcam part) will allow the US to *catch up* with 95% of the world where real elections take place. Currently we have a system less secure, and less deserving of confidence, than all but the worst/diciest 3rd wold s**tholes.

I've been pretty certain that many of the Repubs have been "rigged" into office through dirty primaries. It was the only thing that made sense as to why they all kept shtum after the very obvious lift in 2020 as the D's set about burning us down. There was NO reason for a single R cocksucker to even show up to office one time, yet they all carried on, most of them business as usual.

All because it came out that Kate Smith sang a very racist song. It was a duet. Her partner was Paul Robeson, a civil rights icon and unrepentant Stalinist. The song was mocking racism. I don't recall the song. Our 'betters' are very stupid but do know how to destroy and rip civilization apart.

It’s not mixing Bulg, if Jesus is overlayed in their entire life. It’s who they are, and giving Glory for being able to use the gifts God bestowed on them is the right thing to do. Jesus being at the center of these men’s lives, and others who aren’t sports figures, may very well be what saves our country.
I have had to grow into this perspective- I was definitely one of those go to Church Sunday, I did my due diligence. But that is the entirely wrong lens, Jesus expects us to worship and learn in a church setting, but he also expects us to apply that in how we live. We will get it wrong, of course, but we should get back up and try again.

You are disagreeing with a claim I did not make. As I said, I'm sorry. The God I pray to cares about everything I pray for. He may not answer the way I want but I believe He cares and involves Himself in the ways He judges to be appropriate. I do not presume to be able to categorize what His priorities are. Humans are small by our very nature but that doesn't mean He doesn't notice or care.

NEWS YOU CAN USE: Salmon given cocaine work harder than those without cocaine, according to researchers at the University of No Fuckin' Duh, Chester.
Salmon exposed to cocaine swim almost twice as far as those without, study shows Salmon exposed to cocaine in the water swim longer distances than those that go without, according to a study released this week.I love you, Science.
How much medical-grade cocaine do you think is "naturally" lost in experiments like this? Is a 20% unexplained loss of cocaine a reasonable figure? Steven Greene had a good headline at Instapundit: THEY ALSO WON'T STOP TALKING ABOUT THEIR NEW IDEA FOR A TECH STARTUP. Thanks to Chuck Martel. Also in from the University of No Fuckin' Duh, Chester: Germany's back-to-back abandonment of both coal and then nuclear was a "huge mistake," leading authorities say.
Cocaine use is on the rise worldwide, with the U.N. reporting an estimated 25 million people used the stimulant in 2023 and the drug being increasingly found in waterways. Joint research released Monday by scientists at Australia's Griffith University and the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences studied how the drug affected the movements of wild fish in their natural habitats. Researchers took 105 wild Atlantic salmon in Sweden's Lake Vattern and exposed them to both cocaine and benzoylecgonine -- a metabolite created by the drug in the liver -- and then tracked their movements. They found the river-dwellers exposed to the drugs traveled 1.9 times farther per week than their clean-living control cousins. Those exposed to the by-product also swam 7.6 miles farther, the study found.
German energy minister calls nuclear phase-out 'huge mistake' Katherina Reiche, Germany's economy and energy minister, discussed the likely impact on the country's economy if the Iran conflict continues - as well as the need for a "correction" to energy policies in Europe, at a conference in the USA. Speaking at the CERAweek international energy event in Houston, Texas, she said that prices of petrol, diesel and jet fuels in Germany were spiking "but we don't see any scarcities in terms of volume - but if the conflict doesn't end we [will] see this probably later in April or May". She added that the longer the crisis continues the more stress will be put on the "fragile recovery of Germany's economy".Please please please Trump keep the conflict going at least through June. (So close to Pride Month!) Remember when people used to respect Germans as sober-minded and good at things? Ye Olden Times. Neat idea about how to gerrymander Virginia from the federal level: Cancel the old, Racist separation of Northern Virginia from DC because they wanted to keep our Black Brothers in chains.
Here's the history. In 1790, both Virginia and Maryland ceded territory to create the new national capital. Virginia's portion -- what is now Arlington County and the city of Alexandria -- remained part of the District of Columbia until 1847, when Congress returned it to Virginia. The reason? To protect slavery. The District had abolished it, and Virginia slaveholders didn't want to give up their slaves. Democrats love to talk about the legacy of slavery to justify tearing down statues, renaming buildings, etc. -- to be consistent, they should give that piece of land back to the District. The legal questions over this retrocession have never gone away. President William Howard Taft and others argued that it was unconstitutional and pushed to reclaim the land for D.C. However, the Supreme Court has never definitively settled the matter. Mizelle's proposal is for Trump to issue an executive order declaring that slavery-motivated retrocession unconstitutional. That order wouldn't need to resolve everything on its own -- it would immediately trigger litigation and force federal courts to finally answer the question: Do Arlington and Alexandria legally belong to Virginia or to the District of Columbia? The legal footing here is rock solid, but the cultural argument is just as strong.Obviously, with Alexandria and Arlington re-added to DC -- as it should be -- Virginia would be permanently red again. Oh, it would lose a couple of seats in the next redistricting, but worth it. But wouldn't DC pick up a couple of electoral votes? No, not necessarily. DC's electoral votes are established by legislative fiat, not by a count of DC's population. Storied men's haberdasher (did I use that right?) Brooks Brothers has gone bankrupt because, as Stephen Green says, "American men now insist on dressing like 14 year olds into their dotage." So they're trying something new. But as the 55-year-olds dressing like 14-year-olds say: This ain't it, Chief. Remember in the late eighties when we thought, for literally five minutes, that two-tone jeans -- half blue, half white or half blue, half black -- were rilly rilly cool? I remember owning a pair just because they went out of fashion so quickly that stores were choked with unsalable jeans and I picked up a pair for like six buck. And then I didn't wear them, because they're stupid. And what the hell, it was only six buck. Well Brooks Brothers remembers.
More whining about extravagantly overpaid USAID workers -- formerly making $272,000 per year, courtesy of the American taxpayer -- now working for $19 per hour in the private sector.
As this guy says: That's perfect evidence that you were always worth $19 per hour.Having to take a pay cut when moving from the public to private sector is a pretty good indicator that you were overpaid. https://t.co/AilCKaCenV

@SenEricSchmitt NYT frames this as if USAID employees had a quasi-property right to high-paying, taxpayer-funded jobs. In reality, this tells a darker story--we spent half-a-century debt-financing a managerial class of Leftists whose only qualifications were ideological.

@Oilfield_Rando When the world shut down over a 99.9999% survivable virus, I had to tell a few dozen rig hands they were out of a job. Then I had to tell even more frac hands. Then snubbing hands. Then I went home to wait for my layoff. Then I spent 6 months applying for jobs with no interviews because corporate America had banned White men in honor of Saint George Floyd, Patron Saint of Fentanyl. A great Twitter friend who I am indebted to forever got me a job with a 25% pay cut, and I had to work physically harder than I had in a decade. Anyway. Nobody in news media ever reached out for my story. And it wasn't a unique story, I was one of a couple hundred thousand guys going through this.

I also now wonder if the author really meant "1.9 times farther" or "1.9 times as far." Because most journalists do not have any idea of the difference in those two phrases.

My dad worked for IBM for many years. Brooks Brothers was the official IBM suit. It was basically a uniform and IBM was hardly unique back then. They owned a couple generations of men in some areas who wore suits to work 5 days a week. Habit.
And then fashion changed and BB didn't. For the first half of my career I wore a suit everyday. Probably count on one hand how many times I've worn once since.

I worked for a 500+ lawyer firm back in the '90s doing work for big Fortune 500 clients. The endless-and-never-resolved controversy there was whether the firm would allow "casual Fridays." It was suits and ties every day and for about half of the partners, the idea of coming to work in khakis and an open-neck shirt was apostasy.
The firm dissolved before the burning issue was ever finally decided.

That's the thing. There were rules back then that in certain jobs you wore a suit. At IBM it was a suit and white shirt. I doubt it was ever written but everyone knew the rule and everyone followed it. They weren't kidding, dress conformity was a thing. BB was a safe choice.
I still remember when the company I was working for at the time had our first casual dress day. It was dress slacks, oxford shirt and a sport coat. Nothing flashy or actually casual. Now practically anything goes.

Let's take the highest alleged salary:
IF Senior Executive Service (SES), an actual Federal employees, members do not receive locality pay. Unlike General Schedule (GS) employees, SES pay is a single, nationwide rate based on performance rather than geographic location, meaning the pay range for a DC-based SES executive is the same as elsewhere.
2026 SES Pay Range: As of January 2026, the basic pay range is to a maximum of $228,000 (with a certified performance appraisal system) or $209,600 without.
Total aggregate pay is capped, often tied to the salary of the Vice President, per OPM.gov.
----
BUT Based on reports regarding the dismantling of USAID in early 2025, individuals with high salaries in that range (such as $272,000) were primarily working as senior executives, senior vice presidents at USAID-funded NGOs, or specialized contractors, rather than standard federal employees.
Solution: Go get a GS-7, Step 1 job ($57736) & work upwards, whiners.

China Made a Ton of Risky Loans to Third-World Nations to Bring Them Under Its Sphere of Influence. Now Those Loans are Turning Bad.
China Wants the US to Bail It Out.
Why Trump is doing this, I have no idea. I saw someone saying that he inherited this position from Biden's Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, but that doesn't seem like a good reason to keep it.
I think this means that the money we pour into the IMF through this "quota" will be used according to how the multinational organization IMF decides -- and we'll have no say. And whose power over the use of those funds will increase? Well, China's, of course.
President Trump is scheduled to visit Beijing in May for a summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping, and he will come bearing at least one surprising gift: A budget request to Congress to hand more money to Mr. Xi's friends at the International Monetary Fund. We told you recently about the Trump Administration's fiscal 2026 request that Congress endorse a U.S. quota increase of 50%, equivalent to about $55 billion. The quota is a country's contribution to the fund. Congress didn't pass the White House request, but the Administration includes it again in its recent fiscal 2027 proposal. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen initiated the request in the Biden era, and it's hard to understand why the Trump Treasury would endorse it. It's true, as Treasury says, that the U.S. receives an "interest-bearing claim on the IMF" for those assets. But it's not a wash because the interest rate doesn't compensate for the cost of funds or the risk.
More harmful is the cost to U.S. control over IMF resources, which Treasury conceals... What Treasury doesn't disclose is the hit to U.S. power when the IMF gets more of its resources from equity than debt. The fund's use of debt via New Arrangements to Borrow requires 85% approval of voting shares. Since the U.S. has almost 16% of those shares, it has a veto over the use of those resources. It also has an effective veto over Bilateral Borrowing Agreements. But it has no veto power over use of equity--that is, the quota resources.
I don't know if Trump made this promise to get China to agree to something else. But China's sending dual-use materials to Iran after having vowed that they would not, so I don't see the value of a CCP promise.
Mr. Xi wants a greater role for China in all multilateral institutions at the expense of U.S. influence. Shifting total fund resources toward quotas would shrink U.S. veto power over IMF resources to 38% from about 60%. IMF managing director Kristalina Georgieva said recently she's optimistic Congress will pass the increase this year that will bolster the fund's $1 trillion in lending capacity from its own resources, rather than from borrowing over which the U.S. has more influence. That will be welcome news in Beijing, which wants to use the fund to rescue the array of distressed Chinese loans around the world. Let's hope Congress says no again.
Bonchie
@bonchieredstate 5h China went around Africa and South America making predatory loans in an attempt to make money and seize infrastructure for the most useful part of its lifespan. And now it wants others to pay for its bad bets. We hold 16% of the vote over the IMF. The answer should be no.
Ted CruzRelated: I give Trump a knock, now I'll give him a plaudit. Marco Rubio is reportedly about to announce a permanent cut-off of all aid to the Pirate Collective of Somalia after the pirates there demolished a warehouse containing 76 tons of American food aid.
@tedcruz Apr 22 This is a terrible idea. Congress should say hell NO, to bailing out China.

I thought it was understood that the CCP made the loans to Third World countries with the expectation that the dummies wouldn't be able to make the payments, and China would take possession of collateral such as land and natural resources. Now China's original plan is a problem for them? The slow economy means they can't use what they grabbed?
I don't think we're going to give China something for nothing. Everything Trump has done goes the other way.

Article 1, Section 8 says: "[The Congress shall have Power] To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization". The implicit idea is that "Common Law" definition of "naturalization" is used here. So, "national citizenship" is in view, because Congress can make laws to establish the naturalization standards, whether admission is just to a state or not.
That's what the author (might even have been Levin, I don't remember) says wasn't laid out in the Constitution, but Congress had to define the parameters of it.
Were it not that Congress has become so useless as anything bug Grifter Club, I would actually prefer the representatives of the people when two branches come to blows, then give more discretion to the Judicial branch in suits like we do these days.

The probe unfolded after a formal complaint was filed against Julia Varvaro, 29, the DHS deputy assistant secretary for counterterrorism, the Daily Mail first reported.

Agreed. There will be some quid for the quo. Trump wrote a book.
Hormuz mines could be clear'd in a fortnight if needed and that would secure Taiwan's security for the next 50 years, but a demonstration of that isn't called for at present.

In Utah, Democrat Women Allege That the Latina Lesbian Running for Congress Sexually Molested Them, Forcing One Up Against the Wall and Demanding She "F***" Her Like a Man: Plus, More Democrat Female Predators
Democrat feminist and Latina lesbian accused of sexual harassment of women, including one woman she forced against the wall while gripping the victim's throat.
" " " Allegedly. " " " (Touches finger to nose.) What the **** is going on in Utah?Four people from Utah political circles -- three of them elected officials -- accuse Eva Lopez Chavez, a Salt Lake City Council member and Democratic congressional candidate, of restraining them during what they considered unwanted sexual advances. Victoria Petro, who is Lopez Chavez's fellow City Council member; Maggie Regier, who worked on Stan Penfold's mayoral campaign in 2019; Hoang Nguyen, who is now a state representative; and Jen Plumb, now a state senator, described their allegations in interviews with The Salt Lake Tribune. Each person said their allegations arose in social settings before Lopez Chavez joined the City Council in 2023. Petro, Regier and Nguyen said they told others at the time, which The Tribune confirmed. None of the four reported the interactions to police or spoke about them publicly until now. They said they decided to come forward, in part, because of Lopez Chavez's candidacy for Congress in Utah's new 1st District and after her reaction to newly disclosed online posts that fellow candidate Nate Blouin made between 2009 and 2015, including statements that minimized sexual assault. ... In September 2022, Petro said, she and other council members went to a party after the wedding of a former council member. At the event, Petro alleges, Lopez Chavez grabbed her by the throat, "pushed me back against a pillar so that my back was against the wall and told me, 'The only reason I still f--- men is because a woman hasn't shown me what I really want.'"I seem to remember a lot of male sexual assailants contacting their victims later and using the same kind of language -- "hey, I heard you remember things differently than I do, let's meet so I can convince you you're insane."
Petro said she froze, but remembers pushing Lopez Chavez's hand away and walking away. She said she told Puy about what she considered to be an assault. Puy confirmed she talked to him shortly after the party, and, he said, Petro "was kind of shocked at what had happened." In her interview with The Tribune, Petro asked, "If a man had done that to me, would there be a question if it was assault or not?" When Lopez Chavez ran for City Council in 2023, Petro said, she told a few of Lopez Chavez's supporters about what she alleges occurred. Once Lopez Chavez won her council race, the two women met for lunch and Lopez Chavez, Petro said, told her to stop telling people her story. "At that point, I said, 'You shouldn't have given me a story to tell,'" Petro said. "It's my story." ... State Sen. Jen Plumb, D-Salt Lake City, alleges Lopez Chavez pushed her against a wall at a friend's birthday party in November 2022. "It absolutely was a sexual advance. She leaned into me, grabbed onto my a--, got up in my face and said in my ear, 'You're sure you're straight?'" Plumb said. "I just pushed her away. Come on. Knock it off." Plumb said she mostly dismissed it at the time, but now sees it differently. "I've got to do some work on why I saw it that way, but I would not be comfortable with someone doing that to my daughter, to my mom, my best friends," Plumb said, "and I'm not comfortable with it being brushed away anymore." ... Plumb provided The Tribune with what she said were her most recent text messages from Lopez Chavez. One was an invitation to an event in June 2025, which Plumb said she declined.
She received the second one in February, she said, when Lopez Chavez wrote she had "heard some feedback regarding how you express our professional relationship that doesn't align with my experience" and wanted to meet to discuss it. Plumb, according to the messages she shared, did not respond.
Nguyen, who is now a state representative, said Lopez Chavez attended a campaign event for Plumb in the Avenues neighborhood of Salt Lake City in 2022. As Nguyen was leaving the party, she said, Lopez Chavez asked for a ride to her car. After she drove a few blocks, Nguyen said, Lopez Chavez told her to pull over -- which she did, believing they had arrived at her car. "Next thing I know she has leaned over and she's on top of me, holding my shoulders down," Nguyen said in an interview. "I said, 'What are you doing?' And she said, 'Kiss me,'" Nguyen said. "She said, 'I'm not going to get off you until you kiss me.' I gave her a peck and she got off." The next day Nguyen told a mutual friend. The person, a prominent Salt Lake City business owner and community volunteer, confirmed the version of events to The Tribune, which agreed not to name the business owner because they fear retribution.That one might not be all that serious, compared to the others, but it does demonstrate a consistent pattern of aggressive sexual assault. She even goes after they/thems.
Regier, who uses they/them pronouns, was working on Stan Penfold's mayoral campaign in 2019 when they went to a Human Rights Campaign fundraising event that Lopez Chavez was also attending, they said. Regier said Lopez Chavez was being "flirty" and led them around the room by the wrist. Regier tried to deflect Lopez Chavez's attention and excuse herself from the situation, they said, but Lopez Chavez pulled Regier "into a literal corner in the hallway" and pinned them against the wall, refusing to let them leave. A friend of Regier's stepped in and separated them, they said. Later, Regier was with a friend on the dance floor, they said, "and [Lopez Chavez] was kind of trying to grab on to me and another friend physically stepped between us and pushed her off of me and was like, 'Leave Maggie alone.'"So close to Pride Month?!?! SO CLOSE TO PRIDE MONTH, EVA?!!
She denies these allegations -- um, facts -- through her lawyer. Her lawyer, without an ounce of shame, peddles the same "I have other emails in which the victims do NOT accuse her of sexual assault, so that means no sexual assault must have occurred" line that has not worked for male offenders for a decade. She's Average-Plus looking, a Chipolte 5.25 (they use metric), which I do not think is much consolation to the straight women she sexually assaulted.
Salt Lake City Councilwoman Eva Lopez Chavez, now a Democrat congressional candidate, once described herself as “a Mexican lesbian shaping downtown.”

A Democratic lawmaker was quietly investigated by the House Ethics Committee for allegedly pursuing an "inappropriate relationship" with a staffer -- but the probe never substantiated the claims and was closed without releasing any public findings. Rep. Alma Adams, a 79-year-old North Carolina pol who has served the state's 12th District comprising Charlotte since 2014, was slapped with the ethics complaint in 2022 for getting "extremely close" to her aide Sandra Brown, NOTUS first reported. Aides who spoke with ethics investigators were questioned about Brown's visits to Adams at a one-bedroom apartment in DC -- and her self-published novel that describes a quarrel between a woman and her lover's husband, according to the outlet. Aides who spoke with ethics investigators were questioned about aide Sandra Brown's visits to Rep. Alma Adams at a one-bedroom apartment in DC, NOTUS reported. The book, "BossLady: The Legend of Sydney Donovan Begins," was published under the pseudonym SaVette Brown, though the author's Amazon page identifies her as "Sandra Austin Brown." Brown had claimed the fictional account "was loosely based on her life," a source with direct knowledge of the remarks mentioned to NOTUS. Their alleged relationship also created a "hostile work environment," the report stated, with Brown weighing in on key decisions and even overruling higher-ranking staffers. People familiar with the probe told the outlet that half a dozen ex-Adams aides were interviewed between January and September 2023 in both Charlotte and Washington, DC, after "a high-ranking staffer" filed the complaint with the Ethics Committee. That same year, Brown was promoted to deputy chief of staff and later was also made district director of the congresswoman's Charlotte-based office.

Speaking of predatory lesbians, an old quote from actress Anna Kendrick has new import now that Australian police are investigating Pop Retard Katy Perry for allegedly rubbing her dirty vaiszh on Ruby Rose's face.
"She saw me 'resting' on my best friends lap to avoid her and bent down, pulled her underwear to the side and rubbed her disgusting vagina on my face until my eyes snapped open and I projectile vomitted on her," she wrote in another reply.That's a lot grosser than I thought. I first heard that Perry was accused of rubbing up on Rose, like grinding on her, which would be off-putting and a sexual assault if you want to push it, but not really a strong criminal case. But the actual allegation, which I'm just seeing now that I write this post, is disgusting. The allegation is so specific and gross it's almost self-authenticating, in the sense of, if I were going to make up this kind of lie, I doubt I'd make up this lie. Could I make it up? Sure, I guess, but I think I'd stick to something more mundane, like the "grinded up on me sexually" story I made up in my own mind.
Rose, who is Australian, also claimed that Perry agreed to help her secure a visa for the United States after the alleged incident. She said that she’s "not interested in filing a report" about the incident, but she welcomes a lawsuit if Perry wants to take the situation to court.She has since filed a report with the police. And adding to that story: Anna Kendrick says that Perry "finger-banged my cleavage."
In the resurfaced 2014 appearance on Conan, which was featured in Page Six, Kendrick described an unexpected interaction with Perry at that year's Grammy Awards, calling the encounter "weird" and describing the singer as "aggressive." During the interview, Kendrick recalled attending the Grammys in a low-cut Azzaro gown when Perry allegedly approached her. "Katy Perry finger-banged my cleavage. It was a weird night," Kendrick said, prompting laughter from the audience.Sounds like Katy Perry has a habit of doing over-the-line, outrageous stuff as part of her Sex-Retard Ditz-Whore act. I have a friend who used to do stuff like that but would play it off with charm and humor. He once, out of the blue, grabbed a girl's butt. When she turned in anger, he said, "What, don't you Lambada?," which was a thing (A Forbidden Dance thing) at the time. She just burst into laughter and it was forgotten. But sometimes people don't laugh and you don't get away with it.
And sometimes you step so far over the line that a well-delivered "Lambada" joke will not cover it.

What about Ruby Rose? She can't be accused of an oval nose. She's a bit sharp in the chin, but overall, quite pretty IMHO.

The multi-millionaire former Fox News host is embroiled in a bitter he-says-she-says battle with his heiress stepsister Dr Roberta 'Bo' Hunt, over the Swanson TV dinner family fortune she claims he is not entitled to, the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal.
Tucker insists he doesn't want the money, yet his name appears in court documents demanding $2,414 a month.
Hunt is the only biological child of Patricia Swanson Carlson, heiress to the Swanson frozen food firm famed for its iconic foil-wrapped dinners of the 1950s. Patricia adopted Tucker and his brother Buckley in 1979.

Trump is not rewarding the hardliners with a strike that lets them rally the country. Trump is not rewarding the hardliners with a walkaway that lets them claim victory.

"Either the economic faction inside the regime comes back to the table and pushes the hardliners aside (and they have until the blockade finishes starving the country to do it!) or the hardliners 'win' the internal fight with a Pyrrhic victory just to say goodbye to their bridges and power plants.

Congress--as the most representative branch at the top of government--has the ability to pass explanatory laws.
I used to think so, but instead it defines the different between military actions and declarations of war.
It was pointed out to me by a Constitutional scholar that the Constitution didn't lay out what "birth-right citizenship" was, but the founders expected Congress to able to refine the parameters of it. So, the "definition" was passed after the Constitution.
So, I've made my peace with the WPA.

Congress needs to make a decision. He's not supposed to be engaging in military actions without something like a continued force resolution. Congress doesn't _have_ to "declare war", and it doesn't have to demand that the President withdraw.

So, it's mainly this. The Democrats have been shrieking about "Trump's illegal war", but as long as he was within the 60-day window, it was clear it wasn't "illegal" and an action of force is not "declaring war" and usurping that role from Congress.
After 60 days, it becomes a lot less clear who has to do what.

The simple truth is there is no such thing as a lesbian. They are just afraid of men, for one reason or another, so they think they like women, but most of the lesbian relationships I have been around are far more abusive than any of the heteros I'm around. They beat hell out of each other.
With rare exceptions lesbians are just the angrier version of your average feminazi.

Grew up in Las Vegas (surprisingly then, a relatively LDS city) and most of my high school friends were LDS -- and very conservative.
I was stunned when using their free FamilySearch.org website for genealogy research (likely the same at the pay site Ancestry.com) that about a decade ago they changed their online system to change the sex of one's maternal or paternal line to be the other (e.g. a male maternal ancestor or relative ... and vice-versa).

What screwed the deal was that there was NO national citizenship until the 14th Amendment was passed; you were a citizen of the US if you were a citizen of one of the States, and States set their own citizenship rules as they saw fit.
In some states, only men were reckoned as Citizens, women and children were not. They were legal residents who did not vote.

Whatever, it is demonstrably the case. 1st the government was reformed under the Constitution. Then the law was passed that defined the parameters of "birthright citizenship".
And it, and the WPA, are actually closer to the "Necessary and Proper" function of Congress than many things Congress has done in the name of it.
"To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof."
It's actually a lot more flexible than having "experts of Law" rachet down things with their theories of the mathematical space of Law.

I am thankful no lesbo touched me in my prime, altho one did ask me out and I said yes (because I was in college, at a party, and didn't know what lesbos looked like. She was a lipstick one and normal looking. My bf/husband informed her I was "straight" when I said I wasn't (after drinking a lot). Then I argued with him that I was not straight because I was loaded. Yes I know I have said this in the ONT. I am not senile.
And, another ONT, the one time I was goosed I ran after the guy to try to kill him, yelling,"You bastid" and people at the park were watching. I would have done some major damage on him had I caught him.
Katy Perry would have been wounded along with the bang into wall politician. Her finger broken. (I have also never heard of what she did). Weird.
Her nasty thang bruised (it was not her vaj, y'all, let's get anatomy straight). I would be yelling, making a huge scene, and Katy or the Lesbo-Latina would be calling 911 if they were conscious.
I honestly did not think lesbians did this crap, being anti-mansplaining. What is dis? Womansplaining power trip?

On a 1-10 scale, 5.5 is average. If it's too abstract to add 1 + 10 and divide by two, just put your hands up next to each other and number your phalangers from left to right. You have ten, and your thumbs (5 & 6) are both equally in the middle. So, the average is between them.
There are two ways for 5.25 to be Average-Plus. The first (number zero in binary) is to be a computer geek and count 0-9, in which case the average is 4.5. The second -- number one in binary, number two ordinally -- is to be a philosophy nerd where no one is objectively perfect, so "there's no such thing as a ten" and the true scale is 1-9, with an average of 5. The third (number two in hexadecimal) is to be innumerate.

The Democrat Party, AKA The Party of Plunder, Is Now All-In on Shoplifting, Celebrating Rich White Bitches' "Microlooting" Expensive Food from Whole Foods
Communist jihadist assassination-cheerleader -- and now fully accredited and accepted Democrat Party influencer -- Hasan Piker couldn't wait to endorse more communist looting of the capitalists.She looks Asian despite the Italian last name but I'm going to apply Ivy League Admissions rules: You're white enough, bitch. Besides, in the next article I'll link, rich white bitches are talking up how great shoplifting is.
A longtime staff writer for the New Yorker known for bashing capitalism bragged that she has stolen from her local Whole Foods "on several occasions" in a New York Times podcast. Jia Tolentino, 37, made the shocking admission while joining left-wing streamer Hasan Piker and Times' opinion culture editor Nadja Spiegelman for a Wednesday episode about so-called "microlooting" from mega-corporations.
Ah, the Ghetto Democrat line that it's okay to rob stores during riots because "they're insured." (No, they're not. Almost no one insures their stock. Stealing it is just taking money out of their pockets. And even if it were insured, you'd be forcing them to pay higher insurance rates.)
Examples tossed around by the trio ranged from everyday consumers sharing passwords for streaming services to brazen criminals pilfering paintings from the Louvre Museum. When Spiegelman suggested pocketing produce from Whole Foods, Tolentino confessed she already had "on several occasions." The scribe said one of her duties as a member of her ritzy Brooklyn neighborhood's mutual aid group was to buy groceries for one of her neighbors, Miss Nancy. "And so I'd be getting Miss Nancy all of her groceries, and then I would finish, and I'd be like, oh my God, four lemons, I forgot four lemons. And on several occasions I was like, I'm just going to go back in, grab those four lemons and get the hell out," Tolentino said. "At the time I was like, I had not been to Whole Foods. I had a bit more consumer discipline about where I was spending my money then, and I already felt like I was in the hole, even by shopping there. And it certainly felt, in a utilitarian sense, I was like, this is not a big deal," she added. ... Piker then brushed aside her apparent shoplifting, saying that mega-corporations like Whole Foods have already "factored in" the loss of simple produce so that it won't impact their bottom line.
From Instapundit, which also links this article from Hot Air about New York magazine celebrating shoplifting as Empowering for Princess.
Piker, a self-proclaimed Communist, also endorsed "full chaos" of shoppers "stealing wantonly" and wholly bypassing the self-checkout machines. When pressed on stealing from government-run grocery stores, like one planned by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Piker and Tolentino faltered. "No, I would not, because I feel like that's taxpayer-funded, it's union labor, and the prices are also adjusted regardless," Piker said.
At Whole Foods, you are apparently being monitored by a swarm of security officers, some of whom wander the aisles in plain clothes, and the company's surveillance tech is improving. When security officers catch you, they will take you to Whole Foods Jail. Sometimes with glee. The Union Square Whole Foods jail is a windowless storage closet near the entrance, says Astrid, a photographer. She mostly remembers the wallpaper: "Layers and layers of grainy faces," she tells Nora Deligter. "All the thieves that had come before me." A sculptor we'll call Gina found herself in the Bowery Whole Foods Jail. She was late to an Alex G concert at Bowery Ballroom and had decided to slip into Whole Foods for a quick spicy-tuna-roll walk-and-dine. She had a system: Approach the item with confidence, grab it, then head upstairs to the dining area and surreptitiously place it into her bag. But this time, she headed straight for the exit. "A rookie mistake," Gina says. Gina remembers keeping her head bowed and her eyes low as she was escorted back to Whole Foods Jail. The windowless office was almost too bland to recall, she says, except for a rudimentary banner, that read: ALL SHOPLIFTERS ARE BANNED FROM WHOLE FOODS FOR LIFE. A few weeks later, Gina says her parents received a $90 ticket in the mail from the company.New York Magazine gives a glowing profile of one such shoplifter, and decries the fact that Whole Foods seems to have a problem with people stealing its food. How cruel! She was made late to a concert. She paid a lot for those tickets!

You know, someone associated with the right is going to decide that the left's assassination rules should also apply to the left, and start shooting lefties. And the lefties are going to demand responsible voices on the right to condemn this. And we're all going to say: "No. Go fuck yourselves in the heart with a knife. Pay for expensive private security and take your fucking chances the way you make everyone on the right take their fucking chances."

The effort to create anarchy and get the people in line with the rise of the fascist state to bring order.
It's just that the advocates are stupid, don't realize that they're pawns, or that the power is in...a law and order guy's hands already.

The left is trying really hard to change that.
And most of the fools think it will bring about a utopia. Instead, it will be the third world.
I saw a great comment once: "Putting a shopping cart into a corral is a sufficient test for self-governance".
Places where shopping carts litter parking lots are also places with trash strewn about and rampant shoplifting.
It's a sign of anti-civilization.
That's what the left stands for.

Thompson implemented Obamacare, no more, no less.
If you think Obamacare was good, or really anything other then a crime against humanity, you should want Luigi tried and hung for murder.
If you think Obamacare was in fact a crime against humanity, you should identify Obama, and Justice Kagan, as the real guilty parties, not some apparatchik implementing their policies.
Yet the same people that love Luigi also love Obama and all the leftwing SC judges.

Usually, I'd just find out whose cream it is, and give them the quarterly $5...
Spouse runs his coffee club at work (I am an ace K cup buyer)...his rule is you chip in for the coffee and if you want milk/cream, you bring your own. 3 of them are in the club together, and that works. Spouse brings his milk every 2 weeks, but if someone's freeloading, that's fine b/c he uses so little, I'm pretty sure he dumps the dregs every 2nd Friday...

Yeah, I mean this is the core problem with leftwing "thought" on healthcare.
Just give it to free for everyone, including BS things like tranny surgery or ozempic.
How do we pay for it? Tax the rich. But the desire for "free healthcare" is just about infinite so even if we taxed everyone 100% we still can't give everyone free healthcare.
Their answer? They don't have one. Well, not one they'll admit, though the real answer is rationing for normies, free healthcare for appartcheks.

I can not overstate how corrosive this is. Once people think others are cheating, civilization is lost.

It's an entirely rational response when you're the chump, sucker and loser who keeps getting rolled because you're the only one seemingly following the rules, and watching everyone around you leaving you in the dust by breaking the rules. It is unquestionably corrosive, but eventually people get tired of being the chump all the time.

All this organized lefty false flag activity gives me a hankering to go false flag on them.
Then I realize, it's entirely unnecessary. It would be impossible to smear them more than they smear themselves.
So we fall back on Rope Theory. As in, give them enough.
Hang on. What if Mamdani, Piker, Bernie, Fauxcahontas, Biden and whoever was actually president '21-'25, Obama, Hillary, Pelosi, the lot of them. What if they're all right wing false flag operations?
It all starts to make sense. How did I not see this before?

We tend to believe that a shared set of morals are to be followed for successful societies to survive and flourish.
There is a social compact that we believe in...
The left does not.
They are as selfish as any human being has ever been, even while they espouse "the common good" of their socialist beliefs.
In other words, they are lying fucking hypocrites.

It's not just the moral depravity, it's the irony. Piker is of the same ilk as those who fraudulently rammed through the ACA, easily the most fascist piece of legislation we've seen in our lifetimes, which gave enormous windfall profits to United Healthcare and other health insurance cartels, at taxpayer expense, which allowed them to give their C-suite even more obscene amounts of money.

2) Ban her from all stores owned, including Amazon.com. yep, she'll NEVER be able to buy a single thing from Amazon. No prime. Nothing.
3) The only way she can shop is: a) if security doesn't recognize her. 2) She does not utilize a shopper's card or coupons. If she does, security escorts her out.
4) Share her information with other retailers. They can sue it however they wish.

Salt Lake City Councilwoman Eva Lopez Chavez, now a Democrat congressional candidate, once described herself as “a Mexican lesbian shaping downtown.”
She is now facing allegations from four women, including three elected officials, who say she restrained them during advances they considered sexual and unwanted. Lopez Chavez denies wrongdoing and says one alleged encounter “never occurred.”

My theory on this is that mohammed (Piss Be Upon Him) was a pirate and caravan raider earlier in his career. And you attack caravans at night because everyone's asleep. Except the dogs - who give the alarm. Hence when he was inventing his demonically inspired "religion" dogs became Harram.

In testimony before the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee on Tuesday, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the California Hospice and Palliative Care Association, Sheila Clark, didn't want to bust the chops of California officials, but said there are too few checks and balances over the alleged businesses claiming to run hospice organizations. She told the gape-mouthed crowd, "You'd be amazed at how many hospices -- the door you can walk up to in California -- and nobody's there." ... But Clark wasn't done with her observations about those empty "hospice" offices.California is acting decisively to end the problem. And when I say "the problem," I do not of course mean the problem of Democrat voters bilking the US taxpayers out of hundreds of billions in plunder. I mean the problem of people noticing that Democrat voters have leared to bilk the US taxpayers out of hundreds of billions in plunder.There is five months worth of mail that you can see stacked up from CMS [Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services] and nobody's there. And that passed a survey! How did that happen? How do you put a hospice in a burrito stand in California? How do you put a hospice in a tire store in California? That all had to be vetted through licensure and certification and accreditation.
Who's minding the burrito stand, anyhoo? Not California, though Gavin Newsom keeps touting how he cut off 280 licensees but failed to notice that "hospice" centers have exploded by 1,500% in recent years in his state. Newsom also missed how most of the nation's hospice centers are in L.A. County. He also missed that building in L.A. County with 89 hospice centers, most of which are unattended.
Nick shirley
@nickshirleyy Apr 18 Exposing California's corrupt "Stop Nick Shirley Act", instead of going after the fraudsters California is now going after the people exposing the fraud. This bill AB 2624 will: - Criminalize journalists with misdemeanors, $10,000 fines, imprisonment, and content takedown - Let immigrant based NGOs' funding be confidential - Take away freedom of the press from journalists - Protect any "immigration support services" information from being public (healthcare, legal services, etc) This bill was created by the Attorney General's WIFE Mia Bonta to stop fraud from being exposed. Please like and share this video everywhere! By trying to silence and intimidate journalists, they are trying to hide the truth from you. EXPOSE ALL THE FRAUD.

There was a moment, like 15 years ago, when I thought Ron Wyden wasn't a terrible Democrat.
It was some privacy issue under Obama that he did rhetorical stuff against him on.

There is a portable awning, with a couple tables under it, that sits in a dollar store parking lot a couple blocks from my house.
It has, for over 10 years, sat there EVERY DAY advertising free cell phones. They set up, and sit there, with NO one coming by... rain, shine, summer days over 100 degrees... still there... two people.
Who is funding this? gotz to be a Government program of some type.

He's the guy who went to Ukraine to prove the war was fake. He's the guy that "uncovered" fraud that had been known for years. He's the guy who tried to film little kids in day cares.
Yeah totally respectable journalism.
Just bc you don't like how money is allocated by the government doesn't make it fraud. Fraud has a specific legal definition and should be prosecuted.
The same people screaming about fraud want to start a war they have no idea how to pay for while they cut taxes for the rich and increase the deficit to $40,000,000,000,000. But if poor people but candy with food stamps it’s waste fraud and abuse.
Fraud is a major problem. They're not telling you were the real fraud is. More fraud happens in medical billing negotiations and government contracts.

DD#3 is currently going through IVF - one of the things they test you for is if you have immunity for Rubella. Turns out, she doesn't - despite having received ALL of the vaccines according to the schedules back in the early 90's.
Meanwhile, I - who got my vaccines back in the 60's and 70's - STILL test positive for immunity to all of that stuff.
What changed? Because I honestly don't know. DD#1 had immunity, and she is only 6 years older than DD#3. Kinda makes you wonder.

When Newsome ran for mayor of SF, he had a homelessness plan modelled after Giuliani in NY (Care Not Cash). In order to get services for example, homeless people would need to register and get ID, so that the providers could help them according to their needs (e.g. addiction, mental illness), and track them and the providers to make sure money was being wisely spent. He spoke about how most of the money spent per homeless person didn't actually get to them. It was actually a relatively good plan compared to what existed.
Of course the Left in SF called it Nazi-like and said he was a right wing radical or some such.

The laws under Trump are going down very quickly and very deeply. The ratio of deregulation to new regulation is 30-1, which is misleading since most of the new regulations are "These regulations are to be deregulated."

@SteaknShake
Steak n Shake announces the hiring of its first Chief MAHA Officer.
Michael Boes joins SnS in this new executive role, dedicated to advancing nutritional integrity, ingredient transparency, and the healthiness of our products.
The move marks a major step in the Company’s efforts to restore the original spirit of American fast food: food that is simple, real, and delicious.
“Customers should never have to choose between taste and health,” Boes says. “When restaurants commit to both, they serve better food and they build lasting trust.”
Steak n Shake believes that burgers, fries, and shakes should be made from real ingredients families know and love.

Maybe things will settle down in a couple of years and there will be a clearer picture of what the future looks like. But for now, it's becoming so easy to enter a prompt and for the AI to spit out higher quality code than most engineers can put together in days.
I predict the near future offshoring push will be massive compared to anything we've seen in the past. The barrier to entry is now so low, even Indian programmers who aren't good enough to make it to America are sufficient.

>>But for now, it's becoming so easy to enter a prompt and for the AI to spit out higher quality code than most engineers can put together in days.
I find the best process is to ask one ai to scaffold the project, another ai to make modifications and tweeks and another ai to check the work of the other ai.
For instance, you can ask Google Gemini to create a Postgresql schema and index for a SMPTE 2110/Arista MCS Network Device and Topology database, then ask Claude to design a React frontend/backend, then use OpenCode to make tweeks and modifications.
Things that would take teams of developers quarters or years to develop can be developed within a couple of weeks to days depending on the complexity.

Vaccines used to be actual vaccines. You know, things that give the body's immune system a chance to build up an immunity to said vaccine's payload.
mRNA is the worst thing to happen to 'vaccines' in history. The guy that INVENTED mRNA TOLD them not to use it as a vaccine.

Like I've said, if you are a programmer and aren't not able to leverage ai to help you produce better results faster then you are not a good programmer.
Case in point, give a large api doc to an AI agent and tell them to generate a Zod schema, it will be able to do that in seconds.
Depending on the size and complexity of the api, this could take a Jr. WebDev a couple of days to produce, it can now be produced in seconds.

Leftist Linux Distributions are more likely to embrace Age Verification.
Non-Political or Right-Leaning Linux Distros are more likely (almost certain) to reject Age Verification.
That appears to be predominantly true.
For example:
Fedora, Debian, & elementary OS all have extreme Leftist politics... and all are embracing, planning for, or facilitating Age Verification.
Omarchy, Devuan, & OpenMandriva are all decidedly "Non-Woke" from a political perspective... and all are rejecting Age Verification (in some way).

Age Verification is 100% about eliminating online anonymity. It has nothing to do with "for the children".

Or maybe they could clean them once in a while?

Related: I found out recently from DataRepublican that deaf people are the biggest believers that Helen Keller's story is fake and she was used as a mouthpiece by Communists. That's about how today's Democrats treat their "pets", so I believe it.

Do muzzie women wipe their asses with their hand?
Geez, I hope if they do that they clean their hand before cooking food.
Disgusting, nasty people.

There's a burrito trailer three doors down from my house, its a family affair, and they operate three such trailers. Each of the thoroughly Americanized kids (born here) run one of the trailers. They're making bank.
The young girl at the nearby trailer is there 10+ hours a day. She's always cheerful. The father drives a Mercedes panel van and drops supplies at each location. They are god-fearing Catholics.

Hang the offender nekkid by the big toes, then give each of the offended taxpayers an unfolded wire coat hanger and allow 9 whacks. Each. Only 9 because 10 would be cruel.

Where is antibiotics? That played a YUGE part.
I read Shlaes bio of Calvin Coolidge, and the saddest part of his story is that his teenage son DIED of getting a blister on his foot, playing TENNIS. And he died of it! Bear in mind, this young man's father was POTUS at the time, so you know he had the finest care available.
But, no antibiotics. His own body could not fight off whatever little germ slithered in through his blister, and he was beastly dead.
So, yeah vaccines, and sanitation, etc. YAY all that. But Antibiotics have played a major role in teenagers not dying from toe blisters.
