The Illegal Alien Truck Driver Who Killed Three People Last Year Gets Less Than Five Years in Prison

Yeah, a little more than four years sounds right for a Family Annihilator.


If you remember this guy from last October--

indiandriver.jpg

-- he plowed into slowed traffic without slowing killing three people and injuring four more.

Speaks no English. Got a Washington state trucking license anyway.

Biden gave him a work permit. He claimed he "feared for his life" in India, so he had to come over here to make American citizens fear for their lives.

Oh, he was also on drugs when he murdered three people.

Mary Chastain at Legal Insurrection:

Singh entered the U.S. illegally in 2018. He told DHS he feared for his life in India and stayed.

However, then-President Donald Trump's administration did not issue Singh a work visa.

But in 2021, the administration of former President Joe Biden granted Dingh a work permit, allowing him to obtain a license in California.

Singh received a full-term commercial driver's license in Washington in 2023 despite not being eligible for one.

To make matters worse, in July 2024, California issued Singh a limited-term non-domiciled commercial driver's license despite his failing the English Language Proficiency assessment, answering two of 12 verbal questions, and accurately identifying only one of four highway signs.

As I keep saying: I want to see the accounting on "Cultural Enrichment." I want to see proof that this scumbag enriched our lives and our economy in excess to the horror and death he brought from the Third World with him.

14 DOT has shut down a bunch of these CDL mills.

Asylum is being denied at roughly 98% rates in mega master hearings that hear many cases in a short time (a historic high, even higher than Trump 1.0, the effort to shift the administrative judge leanings in immigration courts is fully in effect).

I hope the female judges that are letting these guys off on lenient sentences flick their bean hard when the criminals get deported and then murdered by being dumbasses in their home countries.

Tragically, no matter what evidence he presents, it will be disputed, dismissed and/or ignored by people who will shriek dictatorship and election-rigging when he moves to address the corruption.

Tragically, because confidence in election outcomes is now a partisan issue.

For Democrats, the sheep's clothing of false compassion ... in this case avoiding the inconvenience of attending a polling place on election day, claiming undue hardship in acquiring ID, and of course granting the vote to people who don't belong here ... as always is how they advance the wolf's agenda.

DHS issues a Final Rule to end Foreign Student Visa Abuse.

F, J, and I visas now all have a fixed period of being able to stay in America.

Before people where staying on F-1 visas "studying" for 10+ years. Now Both F and J visas are capped at 4 years. I visas are now capped to 240 Days.

The grace period for transferring schools or status after graduation has been cut in half. This also importantly changes who can extend these visas.

Before University Staff would actually have a lot of say on this, offering their recommendation to extending stays. Now USCIS is back in full control for extending these visas.

Another visa being abused is having loopholes closed pretty tightly. More excuses to forcibly deport troublemakers here on visas.

77 70 Even if India says that they don't want him back, we have third party agreements with other countries to take the criminal aliens we're deporting.

I imagine those countries will not be very hospitable to the IAs. They'll give them just enough to keep them alive (maybe) so that we'll keep sending them a per capita payment.

Good.

These countries accept $2-3,000 per immigrant and then just let them loose.

I suspect a good number of them just end up dead within a few weeks, crossing the wrong local gang leader or constable.

There's some connection that we don't (yet?) know about. Somebody with power and clout wanted this guy pardoned, for whatever reason.

Not even Tim Walz is stupid enough to pardon a literal child-abusing demon, and face the inevitable political backlash heading into the midterms, without some real reason for doing it beyond hating on ICE.

Maybe Walz himself is that stupid. But he has handlers, and the Democrap party has handlers, and at least some of those handlers aren't that stupid.

88 Walz would not have pardoned him if he was not being deported. The point was that it is pointless to keep someone in our prisons who we are going to deport anyway.

Now democrats can't even run the "guardians of pedophiles" narrative when describing the GOPs interference to the epstein files being released. Fuck they deserve to lose lol

It’s because the victim asked him to. Shouldn't the victims request that this happen be respected? I think the crime is horrendous but the victim requested it 

I think giving a pardon to a guy who hasn't reoffended with 19 years of clear opportunities to do so, with the explicit backing of the only person whose word really matters, so that his family doesn't suffer, is reasonable.

We’ll discuss in good faith after Trump and his kiddie fiddler associates go to prison for raping children. Listen folks- don’t let people beat you over the head with standards they do not hold themselves.

Would it be better if Walz, et al., refused to grant a pardon to this man because doing so would present political problems for the Democrats?

I was incredibly blessed not to have to see the results in the five years working in the ED/Trauma unit and job sharing with a RN who never had children. I would find out the next day. I think God was protecting me.

The worst I saw was a shaken baby boy who was being airlifted and probably brain damaged for the rest of his life. The sheriff told me to not alert the father and I had to sit with this monster briefly alone in a room. They arrested him in Orlando vs in our med center. He claimed the baby fell off the couch.

132 Judge Kaufman sentenced both Rosenburgs to death, not because it wasn’t necessarily richly deserved, but in the hopes that either or both would come clean and confess, this was part of the objective. Naming names.

It was thought that Julius would not allow his wife to be executed, and leave two children without parents. Sort of some psychological pressure involved. They could have had their death sentences commuted, but they chose to sit in the Old Sparky chair instead. Family members refused the children, and they were shuffled off to an orphanage.

Which it's not. Age of consent in Laos is 15. I hate that I had to look this up and, to Bob from NSA: I'm not going.
Basically he is a stinking liar as well as a pedobear and his deportation flight over Vientiane shouldn't have bothered landing.

All true, but I'm sure literally anything goes in Laos. If you've got the money, honey, we've got your disease.

It's kinda like Thailand. Prostitution is technically illegal there, with some serious punishments if you're caught. But prostitution is so widespread there it's practically a tourism industry. Redlight districts might as well be Disneyland for whores, with hawkers and whores openly promoting their services.

But it's all illegal.

139 Incidents like this make me seriously question America's trajectory over the past 50 plus years. Can anyone seriously believe that this is a pardonable offense? It was a monstrous crime for which he showed no remorse. And, as usual, there is no thought for the actual victim of the rape - a 10-year-old girl. As they used to say, hanging is too good for him. I'd be surprised if he didn't sneak back into America in the future.

I don't think it was the DWI or such:
It was, he got caught watching the naked boys in the shower after football practice.

He was "asked/forced" to get the fuck out of town.

Groups that stick together have power, and if there is one group that clings tightly together (plus are supremacist in their ideology), it would be Muslims in general. Their "religion" is supreme to all governments (and individuals), in their own cultish minds.

There may be some divide between Sunni and Shia, but the heads of both seem pretty united and therefore, powerful.

Leftwing Propaganda Found In Home of Suspected Murderer of Pro-Brexit Former Conservative MP -- Despite UK Cops Previously Claiming There Was No Political Motive

This is the woman whose murder leftists, and trannies in particular, were celebrating.

The police lied again, claiming that the motive may never be known.

The suspect in the alleged murder of Brexit warrior and former government minister Ann Widdecombe reportedly had far-left literature in his home, as police have been forced to belatedly admit that there may have been a political motive in last week's killing.

We're getting a little more detail from police now from a statement given on the steps of Scotland Yard, with Counter Terrorism Police saying of the killing of Brexiteer Ann Widdecombe: "It is clear this was a targeted attack. We are still working to understand the extent of any planning or preparation, and the motivation that sits behind that attack."

...


Searches of the so-far publicly unidentified 28-year-old "white" male suspect reportedly revealed that he owned "Russian communist literature" and "items of political ideology" in his home.

The Lotus Eaters podcast pointed out the UK cops now routinely hide the race of a suspect -- unless he's white, in which case they repeat it endlessly, as they did here.


According to a report from the Daily Mail, the discovery was followed by counter terror police taking over the investigation into the alleged murder of Widdecombe, a strident conservative who, unlike many on the so-called British right-wing, publicly opposed abortion, gay marriage, mass migration, and who stood as one of the nation's leading Brexiteers and political allies of Reform UK leader Nigel Farage.

The admission of a political motive behind the killing came after the local Devon and Cornwall Police were quick to attempt to downplay the possibility that it was either a terrorism-related incident or was politically motivated.

Assistant Chief Constable Matt Longman went on to urge the public to refrain from "speculation" over the motive behind the killing, describing it as "unhelpful" to the investigation and claimed that it was "distressing to the family and friends of Ms Widdecombe."

The police response has come under heavy criticism, with many claiming that it appears the messaging surrounding the investigation was intended to manipulate public opinion rather than relay the truth.

...

"I don't understand why Devon and Cornwall Police were steering the public away from the idea that this was a terrorist case and I don't know why they didn't simply say they had an open mind as to the motivation," he said.

Similar sentiments were shared by Reform UK board member Gawain Towler, who said of the police response: "In the past, they'd have said all avenues of investigation are open, but this time they tried to close out avenues of the investigation. In a time when trust in the police is at an all-time low, this just plays into that they are trying to massage public opinion."

They have little interest in stopping crime, but a great interest in stopping tweets.

The suspect had communist propaganda in his home -- and specifically, Russian propaganda.

The brutal murder of Ann Widdecombe was last night being treated as a suspected politically motivated terrorist attack.

In a dramatic escalation, counter terrorism officers yesterday took over the investigation into the killing of the former Tory minister. It came after the discovery of Russian communist literature and other items of political ideology at the home of the suspected killer.

And it marked a U-turn after the local force, Devon and Cornwall Police, spent days insisting that there was no link to terrorism. Officers, it is understood, are probing whether the 78-year-old may have been bludgeoned to death in a premeditated attack on Reform UK.

They are looking at whether a self-radicalised loner may have considered the pensioner an 'easy target' in comparison to more prominent party figures, such as Nigel Farage, who have security.

Last night, Reform accused Devon and Cornwall police of misleading the public in the initial stages of the investigation.

Senior officers were under pressure to explain why they so publicly ruled out terror or a political motivation.

Two days after the murder, detectives arrested a local labourer in error, before later detaining a 28-year-old man 270 miles away in Rotherham on Saturday night. The Mail has learnt that items of varying political ideology, including Russian material, have been found at the suspect's home and on electronic devices.

But investigators do not believe there is any evidence of hostile state involvement.

Counter terrorism police are investigating whether the 'lone wolf' targeted Ms Widdecombe due to her political views, which she frequently expressed during regular appearances on TV and radio defending Reform as the party's immigration and justice spokesman. The former Strictly contestant was well known for her beliefs, including opposition to abortion and gay rights.

They still haven't admitted the motive, but they're certain it's a "lone wolf" killing.

They can't do anything about crime and terrorism, so they'll just focus on manipulating public opinion through the leftwing media.

Of course you've seen this a dozen times in the US -- as evidence mounts that this was yet another leftwing psychopath obeying the implicit commands to kill fed to him by the political left, the left attempts to claim it wasn't leftist Assassination Prep that motivated the latest act of terrorist murder, but just generic "online hate."

Left-wing British politicians have already begun to seize upon the killing of Brexit hero Ann Widdecombe to push for more censorship on social media to combat "hate", despite police having made no public indication that the suspected killer was radicalised online.

The political, media, and law enforcement establishments were quick to condemn British citizens for "speculation" over the potential motives behind the killing of former Conservative government minister and Brexit Party Member of European Parliament Ann Widdecombe, while accusing her long-time allies, like Nigel Farage, of seeking to exploit her death for political purposes.

However, contrary to Widdecombe's long career in public life, in which she stood as a strident defender of free speech, Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, Lucy Powell, took to the floor of the House of Commons to give a speech concerning Widdecombe's death to advocate for more government speech restrictions.

"We do need to tackle some of the online algorithms and business models which heighten this kind of polarisation and hate towards those in public life, and we must do more to tackle this with urgency," she said.

One transgender former Labour candidate was in fact charged with "online hate."

A transgender former Labour candidate has been charged over online posts about Ann Widdecombe's death.

The former Tory minister and TV star, 78, was found dead at her cottage in Haytor, Devon, last Thursday after sustaining serious injuries.

Only hours after Ms Widdecombe's death was announced, a post appeared on trans rights activist Heather Herbert's social media.

Writing on Bluesky, she said: 'And some good news for once. I hope it was an extremely painful death.'

In another post, Ms Herbert said: 'And I hope she was handcuffed to the bed as she screamed in agony.'

The posts were published before detectives announced they were treating Ms Widdecombe's death as murder.

I don't know how far this wreck is from occupied areas, but it seems to me the prudent thing to do would be to lace the wreck with demolition charges, evacuate the area, and blow the damned thing up. Even if the entire cargo (aerial bombs, ammo, artillery shells?) did not explode, it wold be scattered, and any subsequent detonations would be very local.

40 From wiki,
One of the reasons that the explosives have not been removed was the unfortunate outcome of a similar operation in July 1967, to neutralise the contents of the Polish cargo ship Kielce, that sank in 1946, off Folkestone in the English Channel. During preliminary work, Kielce exploded with a force equivalent to an earthquake measuring 4.5 on the Richter scale, digging a 20-foot-deep (6 m) crater in the seabed and bringing "panic and chaos" to Folkestone, although there were no injuries. 

Kielce was at least 3 or 4 miles (4.8 or 6.4 km) from land, had sunk in deeper water than Richard Montgomery, and had "just a fraction" of the load of explosives. According to a BBC News report in 1970, it was determined that if the wreck of Richard Montgomery exploded, it would throw a 300 metres (980 feet)-wide column of water and debris nearly 3,000 metres (9,800 feet) into the air and generate a wave 5 metres (16 feet) high. Almost every window in Sheerness (population circa 20,000) would be broken and buildings would be damaged by the blast.

41 NYPost: The Federal Communications Commission is preparing to rule that ABC’s “The View” is not a bona fide news program, a decision that would upend more than two decades of precedent and subject the Disney-owned daytime talk show to federal equal-time rules for political candidates, according to a report.

If the FCC strips “The View” of its longstanding news exemption, the program generally would have to offer rival candidates comparable airtime when it interviews someone running for office — a requirement ABC argues would fundamentally alter its editorial discretion.

I heard a funny story about that. The exhibit about Harper's Ferry at US Marine Corps Museum, while acknowledging Lee's presence, says that the troops were actually commanded by a Marine. The Marines apparently don't want to admit that they were ever led into battle by an Army commander, even one of Lee's stature.

Emma Vigeland: Okayyyyyyyy!!!!! Gag him.

Platner mentioned talarico in one of his town halls and received a loud roar from the crowd. That’s how well talarico is viewed not only in Texas but across the country. Eat your fucking crow and gag yourself with a platner flyer. Leave this one alone .. he’s doing fine wo U

Sadly he is not a secret nazi. Else Emma would have gagged herself.

There is more there dealing with the primers for many of the shells and bombs being water soluble and so on. But it is apparently a guess as to how much a controlled explosion would work. Estimates of a 3.3 meter mini tsunami possible would make it more unpredictable.

So government does as it normally does--action by paralysis because no one wants to take the blame if things go pear shaped. After all, many people have retired from government service safely since this problem started back in WWII. And the current crop apparently want the same outcome.

And, the inability for the British to control their Muzzy rape gangs for decades is far more a breach of civility than Muzzies have managed to do here yet.

Europe in general is the canary as those places that have kept the kebab out are in far better shape than those that wave them in. Compare Poland and France for example. But UK is alone in its shame for allowing organized rape gangs to exist of Pakistani origin all to keep the peace with a shithole and evil country.

Not really. It is a particular action of Pakistani nationals and that the Home Secretary of the UK has far more direct power over policing than does the US DoJ. The Pakistani gangs were left alone precisely because the British establishment wanted peace and quiet rather than confronting a bunch of murderous bastards and disrupting trade with Muslim oil emirates.

In the US, the sex trafficking is mainly driven from the very immigrants trying to get here--Chinese using Chinese women for masseuse, Latinos using immigrant Latina women, and so on.

164 “common people are rising across Europe despite the frantic efforts of the ruling classes to stop them and this is in country after country. Sweden for example, Denmark, and Finland, have all begin to roll up the welcome mat and expel the worst of the invaders. Other countries appear likely to follow. AfD in Germany, Le Pen in France, and Austria. Reform and Restore are rising in the UK, and Northern Ireland has started street actions against the invaders.”

AfD got 18% of the vote last election. Sweden’s “right wing” party got 20% in the last election. Not quite a revolutionary movement.

Even if these parties do get more traction and win eventually, they’re not realistically deporting millions of Muslims. Especially not the ones who were born there or are kids of ones born there. The invasion has been going on for several generations.

Best they can do is slow things down but they’re not reversing the inevitable.

181 "Bleeding Kansas" was a long ways from the East Coast. Bushwhackers vs. Free Soil settlers and some wild man nicknamed "Pottawatomie" Brown raising hell might as well be taking place on Mars for all the Brahmins and Knickerbockers cared. But things got a bit more serious when Mr. Brown brought the circus to town in Harper's Ferry, VA. It took a major effort by RE Lee, JEB Stuart, and a contingent of US Marines to subdue that insurrection.
Posted by: mrp at July 16, 2026 12:42 PM (rj6Yv)

Brown was called "Ossawatomie" Brown. The Southern "Border Ruffian" parties from Missouri raided into Kansas territory to attack that town of Free State settlers. As they approached the town they were met by John Brown's son, who they killed. Brown then rallied some men and attacked the raiders, but they were driven off with the loss of 5 men including his son. They burned all the buildings in the settlement aside from those sheltering women and children.

This incident triggered Brown to gather some more men and attack various South aligned settlers along the Pottawatomie, pulling 5 men out of their homes and killing them in revenge.

In their crappy system the "major" party gets about 28 percent and they have to cobble together a tinkertoy coalition to have a majority government. And AfD got that amount of votes despite a suspicious number of candidates dropping dead - more than half a dozen IIRC.

The Morning Rant: Go After The Big Employers Of Illegals First!

punk-monkey.jpg

ICE's efforts to rid America of the scourge of violent illegal criminals who prey on our citizens is laudable, and in fact should be expanded. Contrary to the media's portrayal of a country that is upset that violent criminals who try to run down law enforcement get ventilated, most Americans understand that trying to kill cops is a good way to get shot, and aren't troubled by it.

The FBI and other data suggest about 1.25 million violent crimes in 2024, and that's just the reported ones. Law enforcement shot/killed about 1,000 that year, so it certainly isn't some insane number of violent criminals being killed extrajudicially! The number that ICE shoots is a rounding error in the total, so the panty-bunched soi-boys in the corporate GOP and the Democrat Party (but I repeat myself) can shut the f*ck up and sit the f*ck down. And that goes for Markwayne Mullin too, but President Trump already took care of that! [Sefton and I talked a bit about that on our podcast]

But there is another vast reservoir of illegals that seems to have been put on the back burner by the Trump administration. And that is the millions that are employed by our largest companies. The open secret of widespread use of illegal labor in many industries is an obscene dismissal of the Americans who would like to work, but can't. Or the Americans whose wages are depressed because of the millions of additional workers in America who are paid less than the prevailing wage because of their illegal status.

Here are the heavy hitters.

CONSTRUCTION


1. D. R. Horton

2. Lennar

3. Kiewit Corporation

4. Bechtel Corporation

5. Turner Construction

6. PulteGroup

7. EMCOR Group

8. Fluor Corporation

9. MasTec

10. Jacobs Solutions


FOOD PRODUCTION

1. Cargill

2. Tyson Foods

3. JBS USA

4. Pilgrim's Pride

5. Archer Daniels Midland (ADM)

6. Kraft Heinz

7. Smithfield Foods

8. General Mills

9. Hormel Foods

10. Conagra Brands


HOSPITALITY

1. Marriott International

2. Compass Group

3. Sodexo

4. Aramark

5. Hilton Worldwide

6. Hyatt Hotels

7. MGM Resorts International

8. Wyndham Hotels & Resorts

9. Choice Hotels International

10. Las Vegas Sands

Notice that Joe's Landscaping, and Quality Painting, and ABC Roofing, are nowhere to be found on those lists. And that is because the enforcement that I suggest should start at the very top, and target our largest corporations that knowingly, in direct violation of The Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986, employee illegals. Leave the little guys alone for now, and focus on the companies that are public, with boards of directors and CEOs and presidents who can be held criminally liable for the lawbreaking of their companies.

A few videos of the CEOs of Hormel and Bechtel and Hyatt being cuffed and thrown into the back of a police car would do wonders to focus the minds of the remaining executives!

And enforcement would be easier, since these large corporations keep meticulous records, and any halfway decent forensic accountant would be able to find the illegals. And yes, the pathetic government systems that give these companies an out by being able to say, "Well, we checked through E-Verify," need to be improved. They are not the only ones who are complicit...our government is its own worst enemy.

Concurrent with that enforcement should be an increase in the fines for employing illegals. Today it is a paltry $3,000/worker and imprisonment for up to six months. Those fines should be per worker, per day, and imprisonment should be more significant. And that imprisonment should be reserved for the highest corporate executive, not the clerk in the hiring office. And perhaps rewards for whistleblowers who rat out their CEOs! That would be a delicious way to energize the country and show our workers that they are not the targets...their bosses are.

Yes...that is rank populist sleaze, but it would work, and we do not have the luxury of taking the high road any more. Ronald Reagan took the high road in 1986, and the Democrats mugged him and left him on the side of that road with no pants.

I watch a few of the federal cop shows on TV. So do millions of other Americans.

27 Couple of those construction companies are major contractors for things like refineries and power plants. You probably won't sleep better thinking about semi-literate nonentities setting up valves and control rods.

For food and motel jobs, you're literally going to have to draft home-grown people to do the work, and for quite a while they won't be good at it. Low level of skill, you might think, but there's still a rhythm and pace to those jobs that you should learn young, and we just haven't. There will be an awkward period of adjustment. You won't be able to pay people to stay home, as has been our custom. Best done on a "war footing."

28 Couldn't agree more. It's no wonder that all these brand new subdivisions that keep going up in places like Arizona are complete shit construction. CyFy channel is a good one. From the windows to the roofing to the bathroom fixtures to the gas installation, they're trash. And these are expensively priced houses. Everything has become a race to the bottom for finding the cheapest, not the best, labor possible and to squeeze the last possible dollar out of every sucker they can rather than provide value for money. And this has led to the enshittification of basically everything.

41 For food and motel jobs, you're literally going to have to draft home-grown people to do the work, and for quite a while they won't be good at it. Low level of skill, you might think, but there's still a rhythm and pace to those jobs that you should learn young, and we just haven't. There will be an awkward period of adjustment. You won't be able to pay people to stay home, as has been our custom.

Agreed. It's easy to demonize illegals, but the fact is that many of them are very hard workers, while many Americans are lazy by comparison.

I went to Costco this morning, and the guy putting my stuff in the cart was American. He was bright, cheerful, and efficient. For that matter, so was the woman running the register, who was clearly Hispanic but had no accent. That's encouraging.

I've never seen a robot shit in a field. There's an inevitable cost calculation, and when the robots are cheaper than illegals, it's all over. Driving up the cost of using illegals will hasten this transition.

57 You don't need a forensic accountant to find illegal alien employees. The IRS facilitates hiring illegal aliens by allowing them to file income tax returns using ITINs while working using false SSNs. To file with an ITIN, you have to report the income that was reported to you on a W-2 under your false SSN. It is self-reported, but the government does nothing because it wants an illegal workforce.

First step though is requiring E-Verify for all federal contractors (best if statute requires E-Verify being used but that takes Congress). Right now, E-Verify is actually voluntary--it gives you a safe harbor as an employer if you use it but a lot don't because of cheap labor. Any scam is that you hire 'contractors' to hire the illegals to work for the contractor. So plausible deniability.

You make it more and more difficult for corporations and costly for compliance, then they will reluctantly be forced to get rid of their addictive cheap illegal labor pool.

GOPe is slowly disappearing as many of the people that would have been GOPe by social status, money, and education have become Democrats. But the Country Club Republican stereotype has a reason for its existence and has hurt the GOP for decades. If you go back to Nixon, he discussed Pat Nixon's cloth coat (rather than mink, etc.), the family dog being a gift, etc. And truly Nixon grew up more deprived than most Democrat politicians that he beat. When he went to Duke Law School, he lived in a shack with no running water for example. And poker winnings in the Navy in WWII helped fuel his first political campaign.

I think a lot of second term blues come about from the barnacles that a presidential administration gets over time. These are low functioning treacherous types that stick on the ship of state because they have no other options and they gum up the works.

Trump got a pretty clean flush of the GOPe apparatchiks that his first term had far too many of. As a result, his second term is far closer to what Trump intended than his first which is true for his voting bloc as well.

We can get all high and mighty about it. But they cannot police it themselves if the e-verify system tells them different.

130 First step though is requiring E-Verify for all federal contractors (best if statute requires E-Verify being used but that takes Congress). Right now, E-Verify is actually voluntary--it gives you a safe harbor as an employer if you use it but a lot don't because of cheap labor. Any scam is that you hire 'contractors' to hire the illegals to work for the contractor. So plausible deniability.

You make it more and more difficult for corporations and costly for compliance, then they will reluctantly be forced to get rid of their addictive cheap illegal labor pool.

I thought of blackberries as the worst case scenario. The harvesting method depends on how they're going to be used.

For processing (purees, jams, and freezing), commercial growers use over-the-row harvesters. These machines straddle trellised rows and use spiked-drum shakers or oscillating beater rods to violently shake the berries off the canes onto catching plates. Because the fruit destined for processing is generally hardier and meant for immediate freezing, bruising or minor damage is acceptable. Some high-tech air harvesters are also used, which utilize targeted air jets to knock the ripe berries onto pneumatic pillows.

Heh. He said pneumatic pillows.

For fresh-market sales (sold in plastic clamshells at grocery stores), mechanical shaking cannot be used. Fresh blackberries are incredibly delicate; rough handling causes internal bruising, leakage, and red drupelet reversion (where black berries turn red). Because of this, fresh-market blackberries are almost exclusively hand-picked, which is highly labor-intensive and expensive. However, agricultural universities are currently developing and patenting "soft robotic grippers" that use silicone fingers and built-in sensors to pluck fresh berries with the same gentle touch as a human hand

E-Verify is on top of all of these requirements. But employers can be sued if they do not accept the offered documents in good faith for discrimination. But not if the documents are proven false. Basic Congressional bullshit legislation.

I have run into that as well. They are a subcontractor of course. Part of this problem will resolve itself as more illegals are deported or leave voluntarily.

There will be wage gains at the lower end, which will fuel price hikes. I do believe illegals should not be working here. Just remember that when wages rise, which they will, you and I will pay for that, which I also have no problem with. A person deserves to get paid. But it will drive inflation stats.

Hard, shitty jobs are less preferable to employees than softer jobs. What too much of employers believe is that you don't have to offer higher wages for these hard and shitty jobs. And that becomes a self licking ice cream cone with illegals. And illegal's wages are actually higher because they get government benefits often to make up the breach like food stamps, free education, housing benefits, etc. and often the illegals don't pay taxes on cash income.

In a closed economy where you cannot go and get cheaper labor, business pay rates have to adjust to either pay more, have the owners do the hard shitty jobs themselves, or do without.

Sometimes the tasks can be arranged differently to allow for mechanical substitutes but that often requires owners to pony up the cash for conversion to using mechanical auxiliaries than Juan the illegal.

Imagine the number of "kids" who've quit working fast food because "it's too stressing" for them. Or any other job that requires showing up on time, working a prescribed number of hours and doing what you're told.

Some kids can't fathom doing that. Or want to.

177 There will be wage gains at the lower end, which will fuel price hikes. I do believe illegals should not be working here. Just remember that when wages rise, which they will, you and I will pay for that, which I also have no problem with. A person deserves to get paid. But it will drive inflation stats.
Posted by: Black JEM

Doubtful because many of those illegals are also receiving government benefits for themselves and family which cause inflation to a greater extent than labor costs particularly in housing and food.

Businesses got in the habit of privatizing the cheap labor gains and socializing all the costs for such labor such as crime, welfare, education, inflation of key core goods, and increased government debt. Plus putting Democrats in office to make all of these things worse.

Sorry Whig, as much as I respect your opinion on all things, you are incorrect here. We are shrinking the workforce, wages will rise and wages are a huge factor in cost for many of these industries, which will then fan out into the general wages within that geographic location to all employers. Every legitimate economist and demographic forecaster realizes this is true. WE will probably see some improvement in housing (rents) due to reduced demand. But reduced demand in food will be offset by smaller lot runs and smaller purchases by large stores thus increasing per unit costs. Volume discounts will shrink. Labor wage increases will stick, unless a recession hits.

42 The painting portrays two women of different ages on the balcony of a white house: an older woman reading a newspaper and a younger woman sitting on the railing, gazing outward. Hopper’s wife, Josephine, posed for both figures, though neighbors disputed the identity of the younger woman,

Right. Got that. On a balcony. Did they make houses with balconies where you had to step out a window? (They may have, I guess)

I suppose the "window" on the right could be a door, but it is not different enough from the other one.

At least in Nighthawks, you can imagine the door being off to the right, just not in the "shot".

Again, I don't know. Do they make houses with balconies (perhaps meant partially to be "decorative") that have only windows to access them?

101 Not something I would hang but that applies to most Hopper paintings but they are still enjoyable to look at. Nurse mentioned it has an east coast feel and I agree. It has the feel of an older east coast neighborhood I've seen in Providence and some bigger New England towns. The close houses, but still separate, is typical.

The point is the way the two women are enjoying the sunlight. The older woman (mother or grandmother) is relaxed, self-contained and reading. The younger one is on display for people to notice. Her focus is outward, not content with herself. It's subtle as Hopper often is.

It's a small thing but the way the sun illuminates the wall in the room on the left of the scene, showing a spare, uncluttered space, seems to reflect the simpler, content feel of the older woman.

Special effects costing nearly $15, with the eponymous shrews being represented in many shots by dogs with string mops attached to their backs.

And speaking of bodacious tatas, it also stars Ingrid Goude, a former Miss Sweden who barely spoke a word of English. Not that she needed to in order to carry out her designated role in this film (as Monty Python would put it, "Featuring Ingrid Goude as the Girl with the Large Breasts").

206 John Rogers spent years secretly funneling sensitive Federal Reserve information to Chinese spies, then looked investigators in the eye and lied about it. And when that wasn’t enough, he lied again under oath at trial. Federal Reserve employees entrusted with America’s most sensitive economic information cannot sell out their country and their colleagues for personal gain and then expect to hide behind a single word.

The Morning Report — 7/ 16 /26

WalzLaos.jpg


Good morning kids. As we discussed on the latest episode of the podcast linked here
as well as in the sidebar and available on the popular outlets noted at the end of this post, the usual suspects on the Left as well as shockingly from DHS chief Markwayne Mullin are in an uproar about ICE agents not only doing their duty in rounding up illegal aliens but in using lethal force to defend their lives from being snuffed out by their quarry. Despite the disgusting naked propaganda campaign to turn not merely lettuce-picking border jumpers but the most violent criminal rapists, murderers, human and drug-traffickers among them into the second coming of Anne Frank resisting the Gestapo.

Well, in that light lookie here at what has been revealed about the now justifiably (to any sane person) ventilated would-be murderer.

Federal authorities found three bags of what they believe to be meth inside the van driven by the Mexican man who was shot and killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Houston last week. An FBI search warrant said investigators found bags containing a “white crystal-like substance” that “is consistent with methamphetamine” inside the vehicle driven by Lorenzo Salgado Araujo.

But of course law enforcement officers stopping this bastard was a crime against humanity, eh Democrats? So they've now got a wetback George Floyd to try and shove in our faces.

And speaking of Minnesota with the aforementioned in mind:

WASHINGTON – The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released the following statement confirming that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has arrested and deported an illegal alien from Laos who had been pardoned by Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and his fellow sanctuary politicians despite a prior conviction for repeatedly sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl.

Tou Lue Vang, an illegal alien from Laos, had been convicted in 2006 of first-degree criminal sexual conduct after he repeatedly assaulted a girl between 2002 and 2004, starting when she was just 10 years old. He once offered his victim $10 to keep quiet about the sexual assaults. When interviewed by police, he tried to justify his actions as “a cultural thing,” and even said that his victim was just as guilty as him and should also be arrested.

Following his conviction, a Department of Justice (DOJ) Immigration Judge issued Vang a final order of removal on October 31, 2006.

Tim Walz who is a credibly suspected P3do himself pardoned this Laotion louse to prevent his ejection from our country. Thank goodness that heinous abuse of power was rejected but how many more of these bastards must we be forced to endure. It would be better that the administration not attempt to kowtow and pander to the Left by accepting their premises about ICE and other law enforcement officers doing their duty and unfortunately having to on occasion use lethal force to defend their lives from vermin foreign and domestic who are tearing us apart from within.

So, okay, body cams on ICE agents. Is that going to prevent any future incidents caught on tape from being completely misrepresented by the Dems and their media whore propagandists? Of course not. Just look at what they did with the George Floyd evidence. An autopsy that clearly proved the decomposing Son of the Great Society died not because of what officer Derek Chauvin did in restraining him but because of a weak heart and the ingestion of his drug stash.

This garbage has to end because if it doesn't one day it will end us. And on that note, I give you this revolting development:

We’re not too surprised that 51% of liberals say they’re “willing to pay higher taxes to support more social programs.” (Although the number should be 100%.)

But why do 30% of Republicans feel this way? And why in the world would more than one in five “conservatives” say they’d pay higher taxes for more services?

It gets worse.

The poll also asked whether respondents “believe the government should own key industries such as healthcare and energy.”

Incredibly, 43% of Republicans agree, as do 41% of conservatives. That’s barely higher than the share of liberals who want government ownership of key industries.

Yeah, I get it polls schmolls and poles are for strippers. But still. Maybe Markwayne Mullin's behavior is reflected here or perhaps it's something else. In any case, it's not good news.

Have a good day,

8 Link: "Canadian Woman Allegedly Slaps Teen Over Trump-Themed Clothing, Lands in ICE Custody"

I brought this up in today's Tech News thread. Here's some of my comment:

She was arrested, charged with simple-assault, and released to face trial later. Oops, ICE was already interested in her and detained her upon release. And that's where the current drama with her husband trying to get her released from the Delaney Hall facility in Newark NJ.

Here's the post by Homeland Security on X (via nitter.net) that has the bit of info we were missing yesterday:
https://tinyurl.com/y8bb7sp2

"She entered the United States on April 14, 2024, on a visa set to expire on September 6, 2024. In violation of our nation’s laws, she overstayed her visa and failed to depart."

So: She was probably on a B-2 visa (tourism) with a possible reason of "Visit with friends or relatives". Those have a six month maximum. You must depart the country, checking in with CBP in person to declare that you're leaving so they have a record of it. She didn't. FAFO.

14 Why are the warm and fuzzy poll sentiments on Socialism in the least surprising?

Americans have been under overwhelming propaganda/media assault for decades through the leftist-infected educational system and leftist-dominated media.

Where, on the other hand, has been any counter-propaganda or education campaign on Capitalism and the free market, outside of cheap and easy, sloganized campaign rhetoric?

Trump can say Socialism is evil and a new Golden Age is here, but what the hell does that mean to the average civically illiterate American? It's empty rhetoric.

Where has been any attempt to educate young people on civics?

Where has been taught an accurate history of Leftism, Socialism and Communism?

The unchallenged totality of indoctrination, misinformation and societal self-loathing has produced the results we see. In fact, it's rather incredible the tilt toward acceptance of Socialism isn't even more pronounced.

16 The poll also asked whether respondents “believe the government should own key industries such as healthcare and energy.”

For one, the past two generations have at least the benefit of government school indoctrination—ironically they fail to see that their private and home-school counterparts do substantially better in life.

Part may be perpetual adolescence. The actual costs of living were absorbed by the parent(s) and were "mean" if after all of the expenses and retirement savings there wasn't enough to shower toys and luxuries on their spawn.

Western Arrogance. Refusal to accept Cause & Effect, because (see above) it often requires abstract thinking. (If I build only unreliable and horribly expensive vanity energy projects while tearing down base-line energy, and build only to nameplate and not actual output, why is my utility bill so high and we are experiencing brown outs?)

26 Why are the warm and fuzzy poll sentiments on Socialism in the least surprising?

Another is feminization of society, particularly the levers of power and influence.

Women, generally speaking, a wired to default to Toddler Ethics: Don't hit, don't say mean things, share.

That is why you see criminals not be punished (don't hit), they love the censorship programs and hate people who don't agree 100% with them (don't say mean things) and why socialism isn't challenged because share.

It didn't help during the DEI phase of corporate drift when female sinecures obtained money and power and didn't have to earn any of it. That just validates the idea that I'm automatically entitled to good things, and if bad things happen its because of breaking the Toddler Ethics.

With all of that, plus the importation of 10s of millions of non-American born citizens, not to mention illegals, the founding ideas of this country, what make us so great, why we are/were different from anywhere else, has been purposefully painted over with the blackest of paint, leaving nearly everyone left an utter imbecile.

I guess the only thing that is somewhat soothing is that, if these ideas truly were what the people are clamoring for, why do Democrats have to lie about what they're going to do and will do if given the opportunity? The ideas don't sell well. It seems quite incongruent with polls like these.

I had this conversation the other day with a friend.

At some point, conservatives must draw a line at which their allegiance to humanity trumps their allegiance to capitalism.

We could have privatized fire departments which stand outside your home and negotiate the price of extinguishing the fire as your family, pets and memories burn, but we don't.

We could privatize the military and determine what the price is to defend your town when Chinks or Towelheads invade, but we don't.

But we do force individuals to negotiate the price of staying alive when it comes to cancer treatment or heart attacks. This just seems inhuman.

I don't know where the line is between completely socializing medical treatment and laissez faire capitalist health care, but in my mind it's an essential service that is every bit as necessary to national security as giving missiles to Ukraine.

Historically, you paid for Fire “Insurance”. Rural Fire departments still work this way.

Well, that is barely true. They don't stand outside your house and negotiate while you are in need of service.

Rural Metro Fire, for examples, is a private fire protection company that is funded through membership dues, based on property size, assessed value, risk, etc. If you are cooking meth, you probably will be more likely to need their services, yet your lab isn't worth more than a few dollars.

If you aren't a member, you will have to pay for the full cost of extinguishing the fire—the same way that you are expected to pay the full cost of replacing your car if uninsured and total it.

64 I don't know where the line is between completely socializing medical treatment and laissez faire capitalist health care, but in my mind it's an essential service that is every bit as necessary to national security as giving missiles to Ukraine.

Under the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA), hospitals that accept Medicare funding (nearly all U.S. hospitals) are legally required to provide a medical screening examination and stabilizing treatment for any emergency medical condition, regardless of the patient's ability to pay or insurance status.

That's not enough?

I guess we could go the European route and you get free everything, eventually, provided the American public pays enough for it. Of course, pretty much all other aspects of government spending will have to go away to cover that. And we'll have to import tens of millions of 'migrants' to try and keep the economy afloat while we're trying to pay for it.

Or... we could encourage people to get healthy instead of taking $1000 in pharma every month and we could accept that some things cannot be afforded by me. But no, always it's "everyone else has to work for MY benefit".

Are you not aware that medical care started becoming much more expensive as the government inserted itself into the process via Medicare, Obamacare and other regulations? When I was growing up my mom took us to the local town doc (who everyone knew and loved) and she paid cash (no insurance!) and we got excellent medical care. Catastrophic insurance policies existed for major hospitalizations etc so no one went bankrupt when they faced a medical issue. That same doctor would sometimes not charge anything if he knew our family finances were tight at the time… and he was one of the more affluent members of the community. Government stayed out and it was much better. Now go to a doc with sniffles and you MUST show your insurance card. Thanks government

73 They don’t negotiate anything if your house is on fire, it’s too late. Insurance is something you have to purchase ahead of time. That’s the whole idea

Wouldn’t you agree?


I understand your point.

Should foreign nations that count on American military intervention pay American for Military Invasion Insurance ahead of time?

Or do we sometimes do things just because they are morally proper?

Why is it more morally proper to intervene in the case of a genocide of foreign citizens, but not intervene in the case of saving the case of an American child with leukemia?

Or, if you prefer, why is it more important to national security to defend the government of a foreign nation than to support the lives of your own fighting force/production force domestically?

But enslaving people to make sure that you receive the medical care you feel entitled to is not inhuman.

Prosperity is a weird thing. In Romans 1, the Apostle starts off before describing the Road to Reprobation by stating "And They Were Not Grateful".

Our troll, ZoomerCon, has zero understanding that the historical Norm for billions of people over all cultures and all times is hard, cruel and short life. The poorest of the poor in this country have access to things Emperors, Kings and Pharaohs wish they could have had—yet are ungrateful.

The Blue Angels have released the following statement:

"The U.S. Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, is aware of social media footage showing a low-altitude pass by a team aircraft over Pensacola Beach earlier today.

During an arrival maneuver, an aircraft flew lower than standard profiles, resulting in a disturbance on the beach that affected civilian chairs and umbrellas.

The safety of our hometown community, spectators, and our pilots is our highest priority. Team leadership is reviewing the circumstances surrounding the maneuver and conducting a thorough safety review to ensure all operations adhere to strict Navy and FAA safety standards."

Insurance is a mutual, voluntary arrangement where members pool their resources to protect against disaster. Catastrophic events that one cannot handle financially.

I don’t have Insurance on my microwave oven. If it dies, it won’t wipe me out. I just buy a new one. I keep my truck insured, because I can’t afford the scratch to buy a new one outright.

I read a story, apparently legitimate, where Obie recounted the tale of his car being totaled in Chicago, and he tried to submit a claim on a liability policy.

People don’t understand what Insurance is, how it works, what they are paying for, what it covers, and what their responsibility is. None of it.

They pay $20 a month and think they won the fucking Lottery if their beater gets hit. And blame “greed” and “capitalism”.

I remember those days jockeying to get the kid off to school before you had to be at work. After school the kid would get dropped off at a sitter for a few hours until I got there after work.

And soon we will be lectured by our superiors that Christianity, like Capitalism, just isn't working. Our society is filled to the brim with judgment, persecution and the occasional shame, but has no measure of mercy, grace or forgiveness. It is a recipe for broken people nevermind a broken culture.

Most people don't start work at 9 a.m. Most of us start between 7 and 8.

155 Insurance doesn't make things cheaper.

That is complete bullshit.

Insurance reflects risk mitigation. If you don't like your rate, then alter your risk profile. Don't like high insurance rates? Then push your fat pre-diabetic ass away from the Golden Corral buffet desert rack, stop smoking, embrace temperance, quit doing drugs.

Think that has nothing to do with it? Then check out Mutual Benefit societies like Samaritan's that have medical cost sharing between cherry-picked members. Looks like socialism, but is an insurance program that maneuvers around the evil of Obamacare.

Know why their rates are substantially lower? They still have structural overhead and still deal with medical facilities, but they don't cover high-risk people like drug users and those who are chronic psychological clients, or those with crappy health-lifestyle (morbid obese, alcoholic, etc.)

Obamacare says: Live like a gluttonous, self-abusing libertine and we will cover the profoundly expensive costs of maintaining your stupid life.

Remember when their was a debate about putting body cams on regular cops the left was for it - they believed it would show massive bad behavior by cops and especially racism.

Previous bouts of socialist intervention have caused most of our current problems, but politicians constantly claim the problem is we haven't gone socialist enough.

So for example imagine a world where the government has no interaction with healthcare whatsoever. Costs would be a fraction of what they are now. But since EVERYONE talks about "fixing" the problem with more socialism even right leaning pols this is never discussed.

It's "anti-woke." Which isn't a bad thing. Woke is pretty fucking horrible after all. They also appear to be more religious/traditional. Also good. Anti-immigration. Also good.

But... that's about it. They're all socialists. It's almost an inversion of libertarianism. Economically Leftist, and in loooove with big government, but socially Right.

The problem here is intractable for them. If they want this giant government that pays for all their shit, they'll need to make common cause with the Left to build their socialist superstate.

Those people are never going to cede a millimeter of ground on their other issues, and this will all be hashed out during 50 years of rule by my generation, the furthest Left of them all, and the wokest by far.

They'll have to sacrifice everything they else they want for their socialism - and they will. It's a go-nowhere idelogy.

Unless you believe that ICE agents are out of control Nazis as the left insists, the more facts that can be brought to their actions and more importantly the actions of illegals and their supporters the better.

For example, you present to an ER for service. They are going to ask you six questions having absolutely nothing to do with why you are there. Its to determine if you are going to need a sitter in the room because you might be suicidal. If you joke around or answer the question a certain way, the hospital is required to have a trained, licensed and 24/7 in the room sitter just to do nothing more than watch you. If they need to take a leak, they have to bring in someone for the sitter's absence.

188 If you want to solve the rise of socialism the key is to seriously role back current levels of government intervention in the economy.

Why?

The problem these people are concerned about is that their salaries are not going up as fast of the cost of living. But...this is a backward view.

As the economy gets more efficient costs of living are supposed to go DOWN not up. And a great example of this from one sector is TVs. You can now buy a TV better that was even available 20 years ago for 1/5 the price of the average TV then.

Almost every good and service should have followed this same pattern (if not scale) over the last 20 years. Why haven't they? Government intervention in the economy.

210 I was disappointed, but not much surprised, at Mullin's restrictions on ICE. I knew him (knew of him, anyway) back when he was just a plumber. Hoped he would be stronger, and he has been to some degree, but he's still of the mold of Lankford. Oklahoma squishes.😞

Statesmen act from principle. Politicians react to the weathervane.

Mullin could have made a more temperate order that would still allow ICE to do their job. Trump could then have made a more temperate order taking the controls back. For appearances, rather than seeming like opponents. Of ICE. And each other.

Am I making sense? I've only had a cup of coffee.

211 I saw Young Washington last night. It's quite good and I enjoyed it. A pleasant unexpected surprise: Kelsey Grammer in the role of Lord Fairfax. Lots of scenes of Colonial Williamsburg and excellent costumes. Some great supporting characters as well.

I think it was well done with good acting across the board except the woman that played Washington's girlfriend.

Also the actor that played Washington's friend looks too much like JD Vance. He did fine in the role but it was distracting...

Your question is academic, not rooted in reality.

You will never find pure Christian ethics/morality adoption, and you won't ever find your altruistic socialism.

You get Fallen individuals and the levels of chaos that surround them. There is this meme going about concerning the downright pleasure of growing up in the 1970s. What is left out is the race riots, gas lines, war conscription, leftist terrorism, 20% home mortgage rates.

Why it seems better is that society, for what it compares to today, was largely homogeneous, particularly away from the urban areas which, since Esau killed his brother and formed his own city, has been hell holes in one way or another.

Mutual Aid societies are where neighbors cared for their neighbors who were reluctant for charity, but accepted it and often repaid what was given. That is a mark of a High Trust Society brought to you by Christianity.

Ain't that way now.

248 man

Data on school student deaths from school busses are very well examined. There are very few from waiting in the dark to get on the bus.

It is 800 times more dangerous for parents or high school students to drive to school vice ride a school bus.

Simple rules like wait 10 feet away from the bus until the door opens, don't run after the bus as it leaves, or have the driver check all mirrors before leaving stop a lot of potential damage.

Sure there are close calls.
I have a story of one myself, from a student dressed in all black in a very dark neighborhood, on a cloudy night try to run in front of the bus to stop me and get to school. I stopped in time. And we had a one-way discussion on safety all the way to school.

Perhaps you are discussing insurance, I'm not.

I merely mentioned that insurance must invariably make the industry more costly on the whole, given the nature that insurance companies must make a profit. It's unavoidable, lest you make insurance a giant Ponzi scheme like Social Security.

I'm discussing whether or not health CARE is a necessary utility no different than a standing military, police force, fire department, EMS service or orherwise.

Certainly we all agree there are massive drawbacks and inefficiencies involved in having government involved, but also must acknowledge it's not a completely free market supply and demand service either.

You'll pay whatever the doctor tells you for your life-extending medication because the demand is inelastic.

Look around the room, much of the differences in homes today over those several generations ago is because of insurance. Homes don't burn down as much as they used to.

Insurance drove aluminum wiring out, cedar roof shakes out, redesigned appliances, electrical and plumbing guidance and structure integrity regulations.

Seat belts in cars and baby seats was purely an insurance move. Want lower rates? Garage the car. Have the expensive lane and brake assist features. Don't smash into things. These are trade-offs made to secure lower insurance.

269 Insurance in other sectors mostly operates to cover low occurrence costs that would be beyond what people/businesses can afford to pay out of pocket.

Generally this is good thing and necessary thing...imagine the classic case of your house burning down. Unlikely to happen but if it does the costs will bankrupt you unless you've paid another company to pick up those costs.

The problem is health insurance doesn't actually work like this instead covering a grab bag of services that people could pay for out of pocket.

282 I merely mentioned that insurance must invariably make the industry more costly on the whole, given the nature that insurance companies must make a profit.

Insurance was originally a wealth management tool.

It was better to pay someone to eat the risks rather than chance it and then try to scare up some money when calamity hits.

Then poor people wanted the benefits that wealthy people earned without actually having to work for it. We call that coveting and stealing "socialism" and instead of it being a violation of two of the Ten Commandments, is now a Right and a Virtue.

Of course, the insurance companies likely own the building you work in, are backing the mortgage of your house and invest by the hundreds of billions in things that shed regular income streams.

Your premiums also help make modern life available.

From Washington, A Life by Ron Chernow, George pined for the sister of Sally Fairfax while single. Only after Sally married was there some serious flirtations with her and George.

Once George married Martha, that all ended. They were friends that spent time in the same social circles, without a hint of scandal.

286 Insurance companies aren't private equity firms that make money trading that then use those proceeds to fund their insurance businesses.

They are brokerages which invest your premiums and use the earnings off of those assets to offset the cost of insuring you.

So yes, I do know what "technically" means.

I think it's a bit of both. To this day there are millions on the left who still believe Russia collusion was real. Largely because they are stupid but also because they live in an echo chamber dominated by the media which to a large degree is nothing more than a PR organization for the left leaning uniparty.

I think Trump wants that stain off him and his supporters some of who suffered greatly both in reputation and career for fighting back. It's bigger than just exposing the corruption in our elections, it's also about exposing the corruption in the media and other organizations who supported it and the vast amount of lies that come out of DC in general.

Plus it gets to stick it to Xi and corrupt elements of our state and federal government that allowed it all to happen.

312 You'll pay whatever the doctor tells you for your life-extending medication because the demand is inelastic.

That's not true. At least some people have, historically, chosen to accept that their day has ended rather than impoverishing their children. Others choose to let go because they're in constant pain, or just tired of fighting a battle they cannot win.

I am having radiation treatment for cancer. Insurance is paying for most of the cost. Insurance whose premiums I paid for 26 years and almost never used. If I didn't have insurance, I'd have paid the price myself, because I've lived a frugal life and have the money - which isn't all that much, considering. If I hadn't had insurance, or the money to self-fund, I don't know how I'd feel about it. I'd prefer to think that I'd accept my fate rather than requiring others to pay my way but you can never know how you'd react until you're faced with the question.

Posted by: J.J. Sefton at July 16, 2026 09:24 AM (x0n13)

315 Many people see feeding a widow or an orphan as "theft of their wealth".

Paul tells Timothy that the body of believers should support "widows indeed"—that is, women who are too old to remarry. Yet the widows indeed were expected to perform a reciprocal function within the assembly.

There is no virtue in a government seizing wealth arbitrarily and distributing it as they see fit.

The Scriptures also describe a form of "hilarious giving" where believers, motivated by the Spirit gladly share of their wealth.

This is wildly different than what socialism proposes. It robs those with the ability to share of the responsibility, spiritual atonement and joy in giving and provides to people who often would be told "if a man doesn't work, he doesn't eat" and "a man who doesn't provide for his family is worse than an infidel".

Government is to bear the sword against unjust and wickedness. The Church is to support the edification of the saints and the surrounding community.

Somewhere out of all of that, personal responsibility and movement of the Spirit is the virtue of taking care of the poor and oppressed.

Incredibly, 43% of Republicans agree, as do 41% of conservatives.

I'm a free market guy but this attitude is not beyond understanding. Looking at the movies and video games, for example, the big producers betray their consumers in favor of woke garbage. There is a temptation to believe if only Big Government knew, they'd do something. That, of course, is bullshit but the problem arises from the betrayal of the producers.

The bottom line: absolutely nobody on either side of the Atlantic cares about the utter bullshit like this.

Some were supportive of Trump, some weren’t, but everyone agreed on one thing: he’s the only politician and commander in chief willing to say things out loud that others only whisper.

The conclusion we all reached is that the media, the academics, and the euro-lib elite are frothing at the mouth about nothing. America is not evil.

The other conclusion: Europe isn’t evil either. But Europe is governed by anti-American ideologues who have dug in their heels on the most unpopular positions their own voters can name.

So I told that someone close to European defense officials: nobody gives two craps about your concerns.
FIFA let us see past your lies. It gave us a clear view straight into the souls of your people.

We’ve got Russia probing, Iran burning, and China knocking at the door. You can join up with us or you can take a hike, but you no longer have the power to lecture us, to call us arrogant, to call us evil.

You lost that power because now we know, unequivocally, that your views do not represent the people you claim to represent.

I'm so jaded and cynical that I'm not going to give it a passing thought. I'm just going to put it out there - its going to be a nothingburger.

It's going to be a bunch of paperwork about how vulnerable our election system was but it will have absolutely no proof that the Chinese or anyone else changed vote totals. Unless he wheels out a semi truck full of confiscated ballots that have been doubly-independently verified as fake or fraudulent, its going to get blown off. Hell, even if he does do that, it'll still be blown off. He can say "I have definitive proof that grass is green and water is wet!" and the public will just be like "See Trump lies!!!!!"

There's not going to be any substantial change to any voting laws based on what the President is going to announce tonight.

350 'Morning, all. Thank you, J.J.

Federal authorities found three bags of what they believe to be meth inside the van driven by the Mexican man who was shot and killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Houston last week.

Before bestowing sainthood, they should look at the "facts" the press reported, i.e., he wasn't alone in his vehicle, he was driving several other men, at least one a relative, to a "homebuilding site" before he was shot for striking an ICE vehicle with his vehicle. (Reportedly, at least three other men appeared to be detained from a video taken by a bystander, and an uncle was missing since the ICE stop.)

After at least 35 years in country, working as a "job creator," he was finally working toward securing legal status in the U.S. The son, a school teacher, said he had also carefully studied what to do if ICE pulled him over. "If he was speeding away, it was probably because he feared having his tools stolen, his son said." (Tools stolen from a moving vehicle that had had at least four men inside?)

351 Then the United Latin American Citizens offered a $5K reward for information and videos from witnesses as it calls for an independent investigation. "Others begged anyone with videos to not turn them over to ICE, which they said could destroy them."

And the Mexican president says she's considering legal measures or may ask the UN to step in to stop the violence against Mexicans in the US. "There has been another tragic death due to detention issued, even though their only "offense' is not yet having proper documentation."

(Aside: And lots of people in the US are very ill from eating parsley and lettuce.)

Most above gleaned from PBS News, 'A Mexican father was shot and killed by an ICE officer' His son is demanding an independent probe.

While another 'trusted source' appeared to be People Mag.

France 24, 07/12/26, Ukraine's Zelensky proposes new PM in Ukraine government reshuffle
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Sunday he had proposed replacing Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko as part of a broader government reshuffle aimed at implementing an "updated political strategy"

Timing. Directly after a meeting with Graham & his death.

Foreign Policy, July 15, 2026, Ukraine Isn’t Waiting Around for Patriots
A new European coalition is looking to build quicker and cheaper anti-ballistic missile systems—off Ukrainian technology.

(Aside: (Prime Minister Donald Tusk attended the July 2026 summit in Paris but did not sign the declaration. Reportedly, Poland's absence from the new European anti-ballistic missile coalition stems from its current industrial capacity and existing defense commitments.)

Note that the U.S. and Ukraine had just reached a political agreement allowing Ukraine to produce American Patriot air defense interceptor missiles domestically. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy secured this production license, technical manufacturing setups and actual domestic missile production.

And Israel takes a huge hit on foreign aid.

22 Guess I'm glad I got my MacBook when I did. Got a Sky, not a Neo. It works and that's all I ask of my tech.

My ancient HP Laptop finally gave up the ghost. The HD crapped out. I didn't have much on it. I had moved most files over to the other laptop and backed up on external HDs. Anything else that is lost is no real loss. Won't miss it. It was a solid laptop and lasted me over a decade. Probably 12 years old. Lots and lots of use. It came with Win 8 and I had Linux Mint 22.3 on it when it died. Putting Linux on old laptops and WS really helps with stretching out lifespans, especially with Micro$oft gleefully making perfectly good machines obsolete for 'reasons'.

65 In yesterday's thread by Ace, Trump: There's No Way I'm Stopping ICE Traffic Stops Just Because the Left Has Fully Embraced Violence As Its "Political Speech"

We were discussing the case of Kaitlyn Tracey (Canadian) who decided to slap two minors because they were wearing MAGA and pro-ICE clothing.

She was arrested, charged with simple-assault, and released to face trial later. Oops, ICE was already interested in her and detained her upon release. And that's where the current drama with her husband trying to get her released from the Delaney Hall facility in Newark NJ.

Here's the post by Homeland Security on X (via nitter.net) that has the bit of info we were missing yesterday:
https://tinyurl.com/y8bb7sp2

"She entered the United States on April 14, 2024, on a visa set to expire on September 6, 2024. In violation of our nation’s laws, she overstayed her visa and failed to depart."

So: She was probably on a B-2 visa (tourism) with a possible reason of "Visit with friends or relatives". Those have a six month maximum. You must depart the country, checking in with CBP in person to declare that you're leaving so they have a record of it. She didn't. FAFO.

A Canadian national accused of slapping a teen wearing political clothing at the Jersey Shore has been turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, a representative for the local jail told Fox News Digital on Wednesday.

Tracey, a Canadian national who entered the U.S. on a passport in 2024, then allegedly struck one of the girls and recorded the confrontation, according to court documents reported by NJ.com.

Tracey’s criminal charges include endangering the welfare of a child and simple assault, according to reports.

Maybe. Good Argentinian governance is not a constant achievement.

Margret Thatcher was hated by "elites", and her policies overthrown. Now, the Kelpers are the last traditional British subjects standing.

How do you do, fellow kids? Good evening Horde. The time has come for mid-week shenanigans. The bar is open and freshly re-stocked. Free refills!

Welcome to the Wednesday night ONT which means another edition of random overnight fun and games. Pull up a chair and join the fun. Good will offerings of amusing puns are encouraged. Pants are discouraged due to the heat. Be nice to your fellow commenters and AoS contributors. If you're here for an argument, please go through the second door on the right and then close the door behind you. This is a Tucker, Candace, Megyn, and Bill Kristol free zone. Please.

Horde Shopping Update

I know what you're thinking. "Last week, you told us about the impending auction of Gus, one of the largest and most complete T-Rex skeletons ever found. What happened with that auction?" Glad you asked.

The auction estimate was $20 to $30 million, but Gus sold for over $50 million to an undisclosed buyer.

A Tyrannosaurus rex fossil billed as one of the world's largest and most complete specimens sold for a record $50.1 million Tuesday.

Sotheby's said the 67-million-year-old fossil, nicknamed "Gus," is now the most expensive set of dinosaur bones ever auctioned off, besting the almost $45 million price tag for a nearly complete stegosaurus sold by the same New York auction house in 2024. The previous record holder had been a Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton nicknamed "Stan" that sold for nearly $32 million in 2020.

The auction house said the mystery winner outbid six other prospective buyers during Tuesday's 10-minute bidding battle.

If the buyer is among the Horde, please send me a note. Your secret will be safe with me.

Kills Bugs Fast

Ace of Spades does not endorse any specific provider of mosquito killing drones and I cannot vouch for this company but anyone working to rid us of the flying blood suckers has my attention: Tornyol

Tornyol combines ultrasonic sonar and intelligent control algorithms in a 40-gram drone to eradicate all the mosquitoes in your space.

Tornyol uses ultrasonic sonar and autonomous guidance algorithms to locate and grind mosquitoes in its propellers.

A single Tornyol unit should be able to protect areas up to 5 acres.

If one is good, why not a swarm of skeeter killers? I'd be interested to see the result after roaming around my backyard for an hour.

Of course, there is always the old fashioned way...

Where are the Iron Maiden fans?

ABBA now owns half of Iron Maiden? Kind of.

Iron Maiden Sells Music Catalog, Name, Image and Likeness Rights to Pophouse

Pophouse Entertainment, the investment firm co-founded by ABBA's Bjorn Ulvaeus, has announced a partnership with legendary British heavy metal band Iron Maiden, acquiring a stake in the publishing and master music rights, and the name, image, and likeness (NIL) rights. Billboard reports that Pophouse has acquired a 50% "stake" in the assets.

The deal includes rights to the band's iconic mascot, the ghoulish character "Eddie."

However, for the sake of context, Pophouse paid upward of $300 million for a similar deal with Kiss, although the percentage was unclear.

The partnership, which has been structured and developed over the last year between Pophouse and the band's co-manager, Andy Taylor, "will enable Iron Maiden to pursue new creative ventures that connect with existing fans as well as bringing their extensive catalogue to new audiences," according to the announcement.

Does this mean Iron Maiden concerts will continue for perpetuity with a holographic Bruce Dickinson singing Fear of the Dark with a holographic Eddie?

Ontario Public Service Announcement

Ontario police: Do not bring grenades to police stations

Police in Ontario are reminding residents not to bring explosives to police stations after an unexploded World War II grenade was turned in at an Ottawa station.

The Ontario Provincial Police said a resident brought the grenade to the OPP Detachment in Ottawa on Friday.

"The OPP would like to remind the public that if you find such items, please do not transport them to your local police station," OPP East Region wrote on social media. "This could obviously prove extremely dangerous to the person bringing the item and others around."

Officials recommended residents instead leave any explosives where they are found and report the location to authorities.

Of course, Ontario appears to be on fire at the moment, so maybe grenades have dropped down the priority list since Friday.

Niche YouTube Channel of the Week

Tonight's feature is a YouTube channel called The Baseball Bat Bros. The channel does nothing other than test, review and compare bats. That is it.

Does price matter for wood bats? How does an illegally corked bat work? Do different shape handles matter? Does the cheapest bat sold at Walmart work? If you're into baseball bats, they have it. Nothing else.

His channel has over 1.2 million subscribers.

I know what you're thinking. Have over 5 million people really watched a ten minute video testing eleven wiffleball bats? Yes.

I'm including solely out of awe that someone can establish a successful YouTube channel that does nothing other than test and compare baseball bats. This is exactly the kind of niche narrowcasting that is only enabled by the interweb and platforms like YT. The videos are short, simple and digestible with no artificial drama. No highly polished graphics or editing. No clickbait.

But I need a lot of books shelves so the cheaper, flimsier ones were the way to go in my mind. So I had one standout.

Which is...true. I checked out what he is doing with his billion bucks instead of giving it to charity and found two things - he's got some grifting NGO in the US called FWD.us which is for legalizing all the illegals oh and he dumped his average looking Asian wife for a French woman with enormous knockers.

Funny how all these billionaires the left says they hate are the ones funding them.

56 Since the Falklands were topical today, I refreshed my memory. Fun fact to tell those who claim that England "colonized" the islands; when the English discovered them in 1765, there were NO human inhabitants. They're too far out in the ocean for any early people to have made it there. So the English who live their today are in fact the true descendants of the original inhabitants of the islands.

Also, England took possession of them 50 years before Argentina first existed.

While at my dentist's office this morning, I mentioned that we would be in Minneapolis this weekend, and he asked if we had plans to go to The Mall. Well, my ears perked right up - I had forgotten that the Mall of America was in Minneapolis!

I bought a bone-in pork shoulder and made 12 lbs of link sausage out of it. It is actually pretty good, but it is best that I made link sausage because it is a little lean otherwise.
I ground an onion in with the meat and I doubt I soaked the casings long enough because it is a tad bit salty. It is a lot of work, and it would be worse if I smoked it.

This lunation will be the Buck Moon, if you go by the common calendar month naming convention. I don't like that and prefer the seasonal convention. Under that, this will be the Sturgeon Moon, the second full Moon of astronomical summer. They will be out of sync until May of next year when the true Blue Moon resets it.

The last lunation was the shortest of the year, and this one will be one hour and 3 minutes longer.

198 A new Pew Research Center poll found that 44% of Muslim Americans view Hamas favorably.

The survey also found that 17% of Black Protestants hold a favorable view of Hamas, 8% of Catholics, and 4% of White evangelical Protestants.

Only 26% of Muslim Americans said they view Israelis favorably, compared with 74% of White evangelical Protestants, 55% of Black Protestants, and 51% of Catholics.

The poll also found younger Americans across religious groups are more likely to view Palestinians favorably than Israelis, with favorable attitudes toward Israelis declining among both Republicans and Democrats over the past decade.

Foundation for Defense of Democracies researcher Hussain Abdul-Hussain said the findings resemble polling among Palestinians.

Michigan the whole of it, should be on Central time. I think it was originally, but some Detroit bunch wanted to do the equivalent of well, permanent DST (which didn't exist then, so they shifted one time zone east). There was also a claim of some motivation to be on the same time as NYC, but I don't think that was really the main reason.

Fun fact to tell those who claim that England "colonized" the islands; when the English discovered them in 1765, there were NO human inhabitants. They're too far out in the ocean for any early people to have made it there. So the English who live their today are in fact the true descendants of the original inhabitants of the islands.

Also, England took possession of them 50 years before Argentina first existed.

I left my Catholic congregation because the pastor was giving a proPalestinian commentary at the end of the service (wasn't part of the homily but still).
Nobody's asked why I left, since. This was over a year ago. They are aware I'm a "Zionist" and that I don't denounce the Talmud (well, any more than the Talmud denounces itself admittedly a low bar).
So I'd put the Hamas-better-than-Israel mark maybe 15%, the priesthood some percentages higher. Not as bad as the Episcopalian priesthood.

At Mach 2, you can "beat the earth's rotation" going westward, and you don't have to be at too high a latitude to do it. If interested you could run the numbers.

Letting Grok do the work, yep the Concorde could beat the earth's rotation, barely, even at the equator.

So, what you could do is just exactly cancel the Erf's rotation at a given latitude, and have local mean time at your exact location hold constant at 12:00 midnight, and be at New Year's instant for the duration of the flight.

I keep going back to one of my favorite events of the year: the moment Canada got punked for gold in men's hockey. How many people predicted Team USA would win gold? Because Canada was so much better and they were just going to walk to a gold medal...

Except for one minor detail. The game had to be played, and the IOC insisted it be played, just to make sure Canada deserved it. And...well...they didn't.

Same thing with elections. Polls can go on and on and on all day. Didn't these same polls which confidently predicted Trump's defeat show Carter getting a second term handily over Reagan? OK...but we still had to do one little thing: hold the election anyway, just in case. And...the election was held and the polls were wrong.

The original, logical notion of time zones was as follows. 15 degrees of longitude is 1 hour of time. Meaning 1 degree is 4 minutes of time.

So, time zones were to be 15 degree wide, centered on every 15 degree meridian, that is +/- 7.5 degrees ib either side. Eastern time is thus centered on 75W, running from 67.5W to 82.5W. Here in SC, that western boundary is somewhere a little east of my own Clempson Cow Collidge.

So, eyeballing that on the map running northward, that's the "proper" western boundary of EST.

To really make that "stopping time" with the Concorde a challenge, I would try to hole Apparent Solar midnight constant. You would have to adjust speed to match the derivative of the equation of time, the true apparent solar day "sped" at that point.

Anyway, keep the sun directly under your local nadir the whole time. You'd have to vary your speed a little to do that to high precision.

This should illustrate a subtle little point about solar time vs uniform or "real time". Solar time, mean or apparent, is actually a count of the Erf's rotations relative to the sun(mean usually) over a meridian of reference.

Insofar as the earth's rate of rotation is constant (it isn't), and the sun's apparent motion (really earth's orbital motion) is constant (it isn't, but mean time averages that out), then it is a proxy for real time.

But it isn't. It's a count of those synodic rotations.

Thinking about the Concorde going west example, which will show how it works easily, consider circumnavigating the globe westward. Assume you're counting days by sunrises and sets?

What happens when you get back to your starting point? Now, do the same eastward. What happens to your calendar date then?

In one of Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin novels (set in the Age of Sail) two ships planned a secret rendezvous in the South Pacific, one ship having sailed east around Cape Horn, the other west around Tierra del Fuego.

The crew of one ship was inordinately pleased that (by their reckoning) they got one more day of pay than the sailors on the other ship, even though they'd both left England at the same time.

That's exactly what it is, as for atomic time and true uniform time. The second is defined entirely independent of the earth's rotation. It is just chosen to be as close as possible to the earth's rotation reference of about the mid 19th Century.

The circumnavigation thing is just a little cute "illusion" that blew away Magellan when they got back.

In the 1970's, when Anchorage was starting to get big from the pipeline, there was an old crusty dude living on his homestead way out the highway, and he very much objected to the stop light the borough had installed near his house. So, he would come out pretty much every night to blow it away with a shotgun. He had lived waaaaaay out of town, but town was creeping up on him, and he didn't like it.

After about three months of this, replacing the light and having it blown away before the wire nuts were set, it suddently stopped, and nobody knows where the old coot went, but he was just plain gone.

I think the city finally took his homestead since he had abandoned it.

I don't begrudge you an iota of privacy. You may have felt like hiding, you may have not wanted *anyone* to see you the way you were, you may have pushed people away, felt like you were somehow lowered by the illness or your desire to keep your shit yours, but it was your right, and no compassionate soul would consider it anything but your own informed, reasonable and rightful choice.

I'm sorry for what you went through. I don't have huge frame of reference other than a few close people I watched die. One, your same age, got a black wig that was somewhat like her own. And a blonde one for a day and had a laugh inasmuch as she felt like laughing while she was dying. And she didn't wear them much because they itched.

I miss her like the dickens.

My only real sense is what it would have done to my wife at that age, or any age really, especially the white hair coming back, and I know it would have killed her. So I get it to some degree.

Now, per AOP's point above, that little circumnavigation day count thing is just an illusion. If you were carrying an accurate clock with you, it would keep accurate true uniform "real" Newtonian time, and you'd see you didn't loose or gain a day.

But guess what? That notion of absolute time, Newtonian time is not really the case. With relativity, you find the notion of what is dubbed "proper time", the actual time experienced by an observer moving through space and time is indeed path dependent. If you and I start out at the same place and time, and then go around different paths through space and then come back together, we'll find our clocks don't agree.

As long as relative velocities are low compared to c, and gravitational fields aren't too strong, time is very close to Newtonian and that difference is very small.

At the level of accuracy we can measure time now, and the level accuracy of high precision solar system ephemerids and navigation, those relativistic effects are very significant.

The current time standard for the Erf is dubbed Terrestrial Time (TT). UTC and all that is something different, but TT is the standard. This is defined as the proper time experienced by a perfect clock at sea level (relativistically, all clocks at sea level share the same gravitational (and centrifugal) potential, and tick at the same relative to TCG, geocentric coordinat time, the time of an observer moving with the earth, but "at infinity" in the sense of the local gravitational potential).

That's a damn mouthful, and is confusing as hell at first blush.

But TT is the time standard. Atomic clocks, adjusted for their elevation, keep this. It's possible to do sanity checks based on other astronomical observations, mainly pulsar tick rates, to keep it as close to the true relativistic ideal of that proper time at sea level.

In the 1970's, when Anchorage was starting to get big from the pipeline, there was an old crusty dude living on his homestead way out the highway, and he very much objected to the stop light the borough had installed near his house. So, he would come out pretty much every night to blow it away with a shotgun. He had lived waaaaaay out of town, but town was creeping up on him, and he didn't like it.

After about three months of this, replacing the light and having it blown away before the wire nuts were set, it suddently stopped, and nobody knows where the old coot went, but he was just plain gone.

I think the city finally took his homestead since he had abandoned it.

Civilization comes slowly to some folks. Not at all to others.

The advertise 5 acre area, but it only runs for 3 minutes before it has to recharge for 30 minutes? There's no way it's getting that far away and back and killing mosquitos the whole way. $50 bucks a month per drone subscription. It may work but you'd need dozens for anything but the smallest yard.

330 I started reading The Theoretical Minimum by Leonard Susskind and George Hrabovsky tonight. Am I allowed to bring that up outside of Sunday morning? Everything about this book is banned: Claude Code recommended it as a way to get a handle on angular momentum. (And that is somehow related to particle spin? Which is so weird. . . .) I just finished Chapter 2, the first half of the calculus refresher. So far it is great! There are three sequels; maybe I'll get those too.

I've come across Susskind's name before, but I can't remember where.

Seems like the energy cost per dead mosquito would be way too high. Seems to me that traps, baited with some kind of mosquito attractant, would get more bang for the buck. What about dummy humans, soft plastic bags filled with saline solution, laced with a poison? Mosquito lights, sticks its proboscis through the soft plastic, sucks up some warm salt water laced with poison, takes off, and croaks. Bingo! One female mosquito that never lays her eggs.

I came to the same realization some time ago. It’s another of way of saying that Time is one of the properties of this universe; but this universe is just a four dimensional bubble inside some greater dimensional reality. And that which is external to this universe is not subject to the physical rules of this universe.

The ISS proper clock ticks slightly slower than TT. While it's higher up in the gravitational potential, and thus would be ticking faster, it's moving so fast at LEO orbital speed, the net clock rate is slower.

The ISS looses about 10 ms per year compared to TT.

Now, on the Moon, the gravitational effects dominate, and a clock on the surface of the Moon ticks about 20 ms faster per year than TT.

Robyn Bailey, project leader at Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s NestWatch, sets the record straight for us: purple martins do not, in fact, regularly eat mosquitoes.

There are several reasons that stat is wrong. As she points out, purple martins are out hunting for food during the day, while mosquitoes emerge during the evening. There isn’t much overlap in their schedules, and it certainly isn’t enough for the birds to eat thousands of them!

The “Irish monks” in Iceland are generally identified as the papar, described in sources as Irish monks/clergy/holy men who lived there before the Norse settlements.
Wikipedia

But there’s no reliable historical record that names any children they had or any mothers of children they might have had—because the sources describing the papar are about religious “holy men”/monks, not family life or descendants.
historyireland.com

So the actionable answer is: we don’t know how many (if any) children the papar had, and we don’t have mothers’ names.

Oh, with all the Moon base and expanded lunar operations talk, they're working on a time standard for the Moon, which they'll call TLC, coordinated lunar time. Or something close.

This won't be like UTC, as there's no plans for time zones and crap on the moon, but something like TT for the Moon. Navigation on and around the Moon, and orbital operations require it.

Using earth based time references is a bit problematic. Better to have a lunar based standard. Atomic clocks on the Moon will keep it.

366 Photographs of the sky are almost all a darker blue than you would see with the naked eye. Since the blue of the sky comes from Rayleigh scattering, which is preferentially polarized along a line from that particular patch of sky to the Sun, it is easy to put a linear polarizer over your lens and by rotation get as dark a blue as you like. Almost all pro photographers do it, because it looks so good!

Here's the way that is likely to work: Just like in AK, we adjusted our time zone to work better with the markets in NY. At one point, part of AK was six hours from NY, so the overlap in working hours was nearly nil. Made business not so easy to do. So, AK shitcanned the four time zones we used to have, and moved it all to one hour from Seattle, so we had at least half a day overlap with the NY markets.

The moon time zone will be similar. If we want to have a working relationship with folks on the moon, we will have to adjust the time zone to work with that, whomever they decide to work with.

It's not like the light/dark issues matter up here. It's light in the summer and dark in the winter. Who cares what sidereal time is if the clock says what it says?

The moon based time standard is about the precise, nanosecond precision level required for lunar PNT, position navigation and timing using the jargon.

Now, what people time will be can be something else.

The ISS just runs on UTC. They schedule themselves on that. Everyone on the ground working with it just has to adjust to that.

On the Moon, I doubt any notion of solar time would ever be used, since a solar day on the Moon is one month long. Two weeks of sun, and two weeks of night. So people time there will probably be like UTC, but with the reference being the lunar time. The drift rate with UTC will be so small it won't matter.

126 >>>In the famous "Data Center Alley" of northern Virginia, energy giant Williams Companies is expanding its Transco natural gas pipeline system, while developers are proposing to build gas-fired power plants adjacent to data centers to bypass traditional grid interconnections, according to Global Energy Monitor.

Enlarging the support network for ramped-up natural gas production involves far more than installing and replacing pipes. Systems require stations that maintain the pressure to move gas over hundreds of miles, through processing plants, storage facilities, and metering stations. They also require connections to power plants, factories, export terminals, and local distribution networks.

Industry experts say this infrastructure network must continue modernizing to improve reliability and reduce supply bottlenecks

Our dog Beauregard was smacked in the face as a puppy by a neighbor cat. He did not forget. When he grew up, he knew exactly where the 6 ft. wooden fence was from wherever he was sitting at the time. He always waited until the neighbor cats were on top of the fence and in range, and then he hit that fence doing about 90 mph, cat was immediately in mid-air, and did not survive the landing.

My dad was forever bagging up the cats and delivering them back to the neighbors.

Bobo didn't like cats. Not one little bit.

Mind you, this was the same dog that we, as little kids, could ride on, put our hands in his mouth, and grab his fur, and he would just be happy as a clam.

It was just those cats.

The Lower 48 is funny about summer wildfires. Up here, we may have as many acres on fire at one time as the size of some of the smaller states, and nobody really cares much unless they come near somebody's house. The taiga is supposed to burn off every few years, to keep healthy. The idea that all fires must be extinguished is poor land management.

"MASCULINITY IS BACK," Says Gay Liberal Media, In Transparent Attempt to Win Back Male Voters Who Aren't Gay or "Trans"

Via Beege Wellborne: Steve Jobs' widow's Vanity Magazine The Atlantic announces "MASCULINITY IS BACK," but only for Democrats pretending to be masculine.

Actually-masculine Republican men, those who aren't just pretending as they run for office, are still Toxic and Ick.

Brian Poindexter had just finished wolfing down a Reuben sandwich in a deli outside Cleveland when he delivered a message that, coming from a Democratic House candidate in the year 2026, sounded almost provocative. "There's nothing wrong with being masculine," Poindexter told me. It's okay, he said, to be "a manly man."

Poindexter's own manliness credentials are fully in order.

Yeah I'm sure to a gay media writer he seems super-manly.

...

Now Poindexter is running for Congress, trying to flip a Republican-held seat in Ohio with a pitch aimed at a constituency that has abandoned the Democratic Party over the past two decades: men.

You can tell this guy is really an advocate for men when he declares there's nothing wrong with the Democrat agenda: They just need to "message" to men better.

The party-wide reckoning that Trump's win spawned has centered in part on why Democrats lost working-class men whose life experiences resemble Poindexter's--and how the party can win them back. In Poindexter's view, Democrats' struggles with men like him owe less to policy than to culture. "It's all vibes," he said.

"Vibes" is something leftwing women like Kamala Harris talk about. Men talk about actual policies and results.

You are kinda gay, dude. You are very effeminate. And you're claiming that the Democrats' Pink Agenda just needs a splash of blue paint to cover it up and it will be "For the Men."

You're not proposing actual changes -- just "bluewashing" the Democrat anti-male agenda.

...

Critiques such as Poindexter's have gelled into a consensus over the past two years, repeated ad nauseam by starchy senators and governors with an eye toward running for president in 2028. Closing the gender gap now seems to be an official electoral strategy for Democrats. A couple of months ago, I got a call from a party operative who pitched a story on the Democrats' effort to "win back the manosphere."

Democrat Party operatives call you to pitch you propaganda stories would be helpful to them?

No shit. I never would have guessed.

The operative ran through a list of a half dozen candidates in key House districts who "are engaging culturally in male spaces"--a bit of gobbledygook that I took to mean "manly men," or perhaps "guy's guys," but that also reflects the sort of anthropological distance that points to the depth of the party's problem. After all, an ironworker probably wouldn't describe himself as "engaging culturally in male spaces."

No, the whole idea of "spaces" is, get this, something leftwing women babble about.

In case you weren't already certain enough of it: The piece admits this is all a political con-job by having their "Masculine Manly-Man" declare that the Democrat Party doesn't need any actual ideas from men to support men and in fact nothing in the Democrat Party agenda is anti-male.

It's just perception, man.

Like your sex. It's all a construct.

For the most part, Poindexter and the other men Democrats are running this year aren't offering up any new male-centric ideas. That's not what's needed, Poindexter told me. Within the party's agenda, he said, "I can't think of a single piece of legislation that's bad for men." But, he argued, Democrats have hemorrhaged support from men like him--the ones who sweat more than type for a living--because the party has relegated them to the periphery.

This is the left-wing, extremely feminine idea of "centering." It's not that men are actually being harmed by anti-male policies, this faggot is arguing -- it's just that we don't feel "centered" and "included" in Democrat Party group-photos.

But the propagandist finishes on The Big Takeaway s/he was ordered to really pound home for the masses:

If nothing else, Democrats are embracing their masculinity again, and they'll soon find out whether that's enough to win men back.

Oh yeah, they're so masculine now I can't even take it.

What is really creepy here is how top-down this disgusting leftwing hive mind operates. Their political commissars say "We have to do something to attract some straight men" and within months, all of their media organs are pumping out the same message.

It's like an alien cult. All of their brains are connected by invisible amoeba-tentacles.

Meanwhile, at the New York Times, a woman wonders: Why don't men at my workplace hit on me any longer?

Go On, Date Your Co-Workers

July 6, 2026

This is how they describe the picture running with the article:


A strangely-shaped paper clip reminiscent of Mickey Mouse's head holds down a piece of metal, studded at its sides; a photo, almost like a postage stamp in shape and resting upon the piece of metal, shows two birds fornicating. A brass, more standard paper clip sits upon the metal, as does, above and off the metal, another. The birds are blue and yellow, the hazy background green fading into orange. All is a metaphor for corporate drudgery interrupted by the subtle eroticism of nature.

Karens are lonely and horny and so they're announcing that men should brave lawsuits and #cancellation to f*** them again.

Don't bother, they're bad at sex. They're bad at pretty much everything.


Last year I developed an office crush. My friends warned me against doing anything about it, typically using a crude metaphor about keeping your eating space clean. Dating people you work with just seems like too much trouble these days. It's not that people aren't attracted to Jack in client relations with the smile lines and overzealous David Lynch obsession; it's that it feels as if the risk outweighs the reward.

But a return to office romance could be the solution to the sense many people have that modern dating is broken. Dating apps ask us to consider potential romantic partners not as full human beings with a caffeine addiction and tension-defusing sense of humor but as a set of optimized digital parameters.

Only 16 percent of U.S. workers went on a date with a colleague last year, down from about 40 percent in 2009.

Gee, why do you think that is, NYT? Can you offer any kind of explanation?

Maybe something to do with a all-consuming moral panic you stoked and profited from?

Workplace crushes -- a surefire way to inject excitement into office mundanity -- have waned, too, with the share of workers reporting one collapsing from 49 percent in 2024 to just 22 percent in 2025, according to a human resources industry group survey. The decline has been decades in the making. While about one-fifth of adults over 50 said they met their partners at work, just 13 percent of those 18 to 29 said the same.

Of course, workplace romance was always fraught, with its legacy of predatory bosses, favoritism and, when things went wrong, career retaliation. Years of sexual harassment training and more watchful human resources departments taught us not to go there. (About a quarter of workers now fear harassment allegations, one industry survey found.)

But where else in adulthood except the office would you bond with a potential paramour you share so much of everyday life with?

Below, the Masculine Manly-Man running for office as a Democrat that The Atlantic is ordering its readers to get behind.

Sorry, dude, but you are redlining my gaydar. It just went past "EXTREMELY GAY" to "FRIDAY NIGHT GARRETT."

I thought that blacks used the name "Becky" to make fun of white women.
Posted by: Community Notes at July 15, 2026 05:39 PM (PVBkQ)


'Becky' was 'basic' -- which is to say, exhibiting White culture. It was aimed at young and single women, who could be made to feel self-conscious and insecure.

'Karen' was assertive, wanting to speak to your manager. It was aimed at soccer moms and middle-aged women, those with the confidence to stick up for themselves, to flip it on them and use it against them.

30 I'm trying to recall if I ever went on a date with a co-worker. Maybe at my first job, ca. 1974. Girls in high school and college, sure. But not at the radio stations where I worked, not at the courier company (all the women played for their own team), not in the computer field, and not at the university where I last worked.

Too much risk for too little payoff.

169 The Atlantic: Democrats became great by fighting the Left. In the DSA era, liberals need to remember their history and fight for their values. By David Brooks.

What's up with The Atlantic? Has anybody noticed the aggressive PR war the magazine has launched againt the DSA in the last month? - specifically after the recent DSA wins?

I’ve been convinced The Atlantic has consistently been on the conservative end of the Democratic Party. The New York Times isn’t much better.

David Brooks? The David Brooks who once described himself as a "recovering conservative?" Who laundered the Iraq War and defended torture.

David Brooks is truly a professional wrongman. It's remarkable that, for every claim he makes, the opposite is true. That's honestly impressive to be for 0-2854 on takes.

The Atlantic is controlled opposition. They have always been a shit rag.

People want the DSA. Get with it or get out of the way.

They wrote so many hit pieces on Graham Platner. Like one every other day. It seemed excessive at the time. So I guess now they’re taking a victory lap?

I met DH when I was his boss. I was an architect, he was a draftsman. I fixed him up with my upstairs neighbor. After they went on a date, she asked me why we two were not together. I said don't shit where you eat.

A month later I took a different job. A year later we were married.

I still think office romance is a bad idea, mostly for the woman, who will forever be known as the whore. But it may be worth changing jobs for. We've only been married 28 years so far.

187 These coordinated media/politics "frames" and "narratives" are so transparent now that literally no one is foled, and no one cares.

For decades the Let had great success with coordinated messaging, especially pre-Internet when it was harder to get alternative info. Teh arrival ofn theinternet broke their "narrative monopolky," but also provioded them with many more tools to brainwadha nd trick the public.

The left has by niowngotten tos used to being able toncome out with some "frame" or "talking" point" that suddenly apears "everywhere" simultaneously that they just assume it will work.

But they overdid it so many times, and proposed such insulting and patently false narratves with ever i creasing fequency that they burned through any credibility they might have had with the piublic.

Now, the avergae person sees these kind of gimmicks, and rolls their eues and says, "Democrats are masculine?Don't make me laugh." And clicks onto the next topic.

- First comedy and satire was targeted. The elements that keep a society largely in check.

- Next was masculinity. Men were shamed as "toxic" for being manly.

- Then it was women who complain, and they were labeled "Karens."

So if appropriate mockery is out, the most ridiculous concepts actually see the light of day.

If men aren't permitted to defend what they know they should, the most harmful and dangerous concepts see the light of day.

And when older women are shamed for speak against what they see as wrong, the most outrageous behavior sees the light of day.

Comedy, satire, mockery, masculinity, and female wisdom.

Restore it all now.

Via Instapundit, Kurt Schlichter calls a spade a spade.

I don't know what that blasphemous little imp's secret is, but he's got one. Don't be fooled by that creepy smile on his creepy face; there's something wrong with James Talarico. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I don't ever want to see his browser history, and I'd sooner have somebody from The Lincoln Project babysit my kid. It's just a vibe, but there are rumors out there, and unfortunately, no one has shared the specifics with me. I don't know exactly what they are, but we have no moral obligation to default to a presumption of normality regarding Democrat Senate candidates this cycle. After all, we just lived through Der Platnerdämmerung.

Is it related to his gender ambiguity? He's already famous for apologizing for his white male identity. Well, let's just say we can be pretty confident that Talarico has never beaten up or assaulted one of the many ex-girlfriends he's tried to convince us were his girlfriends. This is because, to the extent they actually ever were his girlfriends, they all look like they can kick his butt. And he looks like he might dig that.

Let's call out the pink donkey in the room. There's widespread speculation that the guy is in the closet, and anybody who's lived a few years has known guys in the closet, and well, this dude gives off vibes like he's in the closet. I don't know if he's in the closet. I do know that if he is in the closet, he should have come out and been honest about who he was. If he's lying about that, what else is he lying about?

All of my concerns about mentally-ill men obsessed with possessing women's bodies hanging out in women's rooms are instantly dispelled!

Jihadist communist AG of Michigan Keith Ellison: Everyone needs "gender affirming care," especially straight "cis" people.

Keith Ellison claims straight people use 'gender-affirming care,' calls tax-funded police 'socialism'

"Cisgender heterosexual people like myself use gender-affirming care every day and all the time," Ellison said.

You can tell he doesn't mean it because Islamist clerics haven't issued a fatwa against him.


Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison has come under a flurry of criticism in recent days after a pair of comments about socialism and so-called "gender-affirming care." In both cases, Ellison was attempting to stretch the meaning of both words.

During a June 29 appearance on an LGBT talk show, Ellison discussed "gender-affirming care" and claimed that it is not exclusive to transgender people, saying that "cisgender heterosexual people like myself use gender-affirming care every day and all the time."

Ellison explained that he believes a man using erectile dysfunction medication, a woman receiving reconstructive surgery after a double mastectomy, or a woman with hair loss wearing a wig are all practicing "gender-affirming care."

...

Speaking to the talk show hosts, the attorney general argued that a double standard exists which penalizes transgender people for seeking out methods to change their appearance. Ellison said he believes this double standard is "bigotry."

...

"You call the cops, guess who pays them? Your tax dollars," Ellison said. "Guess what that is? That's socialism, pal! Sorry. You don't contract for your own private police department or fire department or water inspection or public works."

@alexchristy17

Former MSNBC crazy person Joy Reid is now a podcasting crazy person, "I hope you guys had a fabulous weekend where you definitely had a better week then the Republican Caucus in the United States Senate because hell opened its doors for at least one more... there is a thing that happens when people die who are not good people and who've done a lot of bad, but the media reacts to them in a very specific sort of fuck-up-ish kind of way, particularly when they're conservatives."


Candace Owens has a new theory, and I'm not joking: She wonders if Bibi Netanyahu ordered Charlie Kirk to kill her, and when he refused, Netanyahu then put out the contract on Charlie Kirk.

Ben Shapiro is skeptical. He thinks the toxic Cluster-B attention whore might just be itchy for attention.

Brad Polumbo
@brad_polumbo

Ah, yes, because if Israel wanted to kill Candace Owens, they would definitely call Charlie Kirk on the phone and ask him for permission.

Then, once he says no, and they're, of course, bound by that edict, they would stage an elaborate fake assassination of HIM.

That's definitely how secret government assassinations work.

This level of narcissism and delusion is not even funny anymore.

Notice that Candace Owens, just like a psychopathic stalker, cannot stop attempting to associate herself with the object of her obsession, Charlie Kirk. She wants the names "Candace Owens and Charlie Kirk" indelibly linked forever, as if they were married.

Psychopaths often do this. Ask John Lennon's assassin about his belief that Lennon had stolen his identity and taken his place.

Ben Shapiro has done some of his own mommysleuthing, and has a new theory: Did Candace Owens murdered the man she felt spurned by and was obsessed with, Charlie Kirk?

Hey he's just asking questions.

Ben Shapiro mimics Candace Owens "investigation" style‼️

He's better at this than she is and unlike her he actually brought receipts.

Candace has admitted that she sometimes blacks out for days on end.

Goes on entire "vacations" that she doesn't even remember.

Could it be possible that Candace "blacked out" for a few days while helping Tyler Robinson plan Charlie Kirk's assassination?

She's never once offered to provide the metadata to prove where she was that day.

And oddly enough the FBI never even tried to interview Candace so they could get her alibi.

It feels like Ben Shapiro is the only one truly investigating this.


And what's up with her gay beard "husband," anyway? Just asking questions.

🚨 Ben Shapiro just tore into Candace Owens over one of the strangest stories about her!

She barely knew her husband.
Never went on a date.
Never talked about the future.
Got engaged 18 days later.

Ben: "We're not stupid."

We don't know-know but we know.

8 I will have to disagree a bit with Mallory.

The Karen trope is not about the role of elder women to instruct and police younger women to teach them propriety. It is much younger, and the role of older family members and mentors in women's life was intentionally eroded by feminism in the 70s or earlier.

The modern Karen is about pseudo moral officiousness of the leftist women let loose in society.

When everyone is getting gender-affirming care, no one is getting gender-affirming care.

Which is to say, when any woman is putting on lipstick or any man is swallowing a Viagra, no illegal alien in prison for murder is getting free breast implants and hormones so he can get transferred to the women's prison.

32 Yes, “female wisdom” and “masculinity “ have been corrupted as concepts for years.

The kind of female wisdom she may be referring to is the kind that tells kids/teens to knock it off or don’t be foolish. Something like, say, some smarts kids at the park harassing wildlife or teen girls who think it’s cool to get blackout drunk with strangers. The “are you crazy? Just stop!” kind of quick reality-check type of comment, not the now common shrill, lefty woman who wants to lecture you.

50 How does one stretch the meaning of the meaningless phrase "gender affirming care" ?

It was an invented trigger word "affirming" and "care" — pretty clear why they hijacked those words. And "gender" can mean anything in today's Heinz 57 sexual orientation playbook.

Its also total nonsense because they keep telling us that "sex" and "gender" are two different things.

D&D 5e - multiclass - clownwhore:
primary class - clown
secondary class - whore

minimum prerequisite for clown to become a clownwhore is a DEX 13 and CHR 13

Proficiencies gained:
whoring - (like duh), marital weapons - (yeah you read that right), simple oils, light armor, one negligee of your choice, thief tools

You can cast whore spells of the equivalent 2/3 rounded up your combined clownwhore level. However you only have "spell slots" equivalent to your whore level.

The closing of the slave trade in 1808 meant that the price of a slave was high, so for most conditions were more tolerable than, say, a Roman mine. In fact it was common for a slave to 'light off' and camp outside the plantation in a swamp or wooded area for a vacation and have food smuggled to him or her by other slaves and stay there for a bit until the owner would pass the word they could come back for small or no punishment.

Real life is more complex than modern 'historians' think.

Posted by: SpeakingOf at July 15, 2026 05:37 PM (6ydKt)


I got into a fairly intense discussion with an older liberal lady about why "Cake walk" was considered a racist term.
The answer I came up with, after I had a day or so to think about it, was that such activity while not being overtly subservient and fully being culturally cohesive, were still considered by radical black to be signs of being an uncle tom, and culturally accepting the world as it was instead of striving for a new, revolutionary world which would be free of the stain of slavery and culturally open to the new way of doing things that included socialism and communism.

Gone With The Wind is similar, it shows something other than what is presented in Jango or other recent movies about antebellum slavery as being violent as well as being destructive to human dignity.
Slavery, by the way, was not a social condition no matter how hard it was tried to be portrayed as such. Slavery is a legal status and has been since Rome

The LAX incident I'm aware of was his infamous haircut.

I was on a plane departing LAX, and just before we pushed back from the gate, a 'ground halt' was called. to accomodate AF-1 with the Clintons. What was supposed to be a 20 minute or so delay turned into 3 and 1/2 hours. Clinton had some $400/haircut hairdresser come aboard AF-1 to coif him, and jammed up LAX for an inordinate amount of time.

you can't really call a siege of a fortified town a famine.

They did have some shortfalls - there was a women's bread riot in Richmond once - mostly because transport broke down and, of course, each of the armies they put up was the equivalent of an extra major city plunked down on the landscape with no planning for goods distribution.

Slavery was (is) a humiliation and inhuman, and that can not be overstated.

However, work is work and we are all slaves to our need to work. Our need to eat and raise a family. Slavery in all forms mostly provided security and sustenance, and that is not nothing. You can't say that though because it sounds like apologism. Both can be true, it can be inhuman and an insult, and wrong, and also be not nearly so bad a life, especially compared to the sex slavery we see today, or the mind slavery in China, or the brutality of so many war slaves in Africa still.

What makes you think it’s a shtick? His grandfather was a pastor and he’s been religious his whole life. Seems pretty authentic to me.

Was a far better candidate. She had more experience and was well versed in the comings and goings of Washington. PDon't get it twisted, Talarico isn't a bad candidate but Crockett was far better in my opinion.

Fingers crossed, but after 30 years of hopes and disappointments, I'm not getting my hopes up too far. Remember Anne Richards 🤞

He's running against a well-known corrupt politician and he still might lose. That says more about the voters in Texas than anything else

He's an actual example of what a good Christian should sound like in politics, which is why the GOP hates him so much.

Reminds me of JFK mixed with Jimmy Carter. Solid guy, solid policy proposals. Fine by me. A much better face of the progressive movement than Platner was.

175 Ben Had, per Grok:

What Vance said:He described a "literal foreign influence campaign" funded to "tank the very deal that I was pursuing" with Iran. He specifically cited reports (including a Time magazine article) alleging that a former Trump campaign associate was paid by “certain elements within the Israeli government” to mount attacks against him and the negotiations.

aa.com.tr

Vance added that he knows “beyond a shadow of a doubt that there have been people within the Israeli government who are trying to actually shift us away from that policy because they want to continue the military campaign.” He framed this as foreign interference in U.S. foreign policy, emphasized an “America First” stance (“I represent Americans first”, and told critics pushing the campaign to “go to hell.”

jfeed.com

He also noted Israel is “losing the battle” for U.S. public opinion and positioned himself as a “moderate” on the Middle East while defending diplomacy with Iran.

He also strikes me as having something very strange in that brain, like he'd be amused (like to watch, a thrill seeker) of someone, anyone or anything he felt unworthy of existence - tormented, tortured. Further, I don't think he would necessarily be the doer but rather the director, and he'd be good at it.

Also, yes, appearing widely, straight people frequently use "gender-affirming care," though it is more commonly called "hormone replacement therapy" or "cosmetic procedures" in their communities. Because gender affirmation is about aligning your physical body with your gender identity, straight individuals utilize these treatments constantly.

And it compasses a lot, such as Low T therapy, women on estrogen/progesterone, breast augmentation (after a mastectomy), hair transplants, and facial fillers.

A bit of a red flag waving for sure, but a possibility is Vance doesn’t want an ongoing war, and I don’t think we do either. There certainly would be a vested interest by Israel to blow Iran off the map. I also could see where Israel is like, dude, we know these guys and they are not going to negotiate in any honest way. And Vance, still young and green, let’s be honest here, thinking he is going to be able to appeal to them against all odds, I mean his whole life has been against all odds.

Speaking of young and green, this was a very, very clunky way to express himself and that is unusual. But it’s not like Trump is always great here, either. Vance has said before Israel is our greater ally. He needs not forget this.

BREAKING: 3 bags believed to contain meth were l found inside the van of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, the Mexican national killed in the ICE shooting in Houston, according to a federal search warrant affidavit.
@FoxNews

According to the search warrant, the three plastic bags contained a “white crystal-like
substance in the middle of the dash between the driver and passenger side of the vehicle.”

237 End of a busy day for me. A workout, a couple of pages written; a video tour of a new house (I may go for it!); chatting with Flo's Bros about a very preliminary insurance quote for it (not bad); and a call to the investment people. They say they will stop the missing pension check, reprocess it -- two days, they swear -- and send it by UPS or DHL this time. Maybe, maybe I'll see it at last next week.

Meanwhile, dinner is in the offing, and possibly watching Death on the Nile from 1978.

'Becky' was 'basic' -- which is to say, exhibiting White culture. It was aimed at young and single women, who could be made to feel self-conscious and insecure.

'Karen' was assertive, wanting to speak to your manager. It was aimed at soccer moms and middle-aged women, with the confidence to stick up for themselves, to flip it on them and use it against them.

UK "Equalities and Human Rights Commission:" People Must Use The Single-Sex Bathrooms for the Gender They Were "Assigned at Birth." Trannies Should Use Gender-Neutral Bathrooms.

This may seem pretty obvious but the left is losing its mind.


Single-sex spaces - such as changing rooms and toilets - must be used on the basis of biological sex, new guidance from the equalities watchdog has confirmed.

This means, for instance, that a trans woman - a biological male who identifies as a woman - should not use female toilets or changing rooms, according to the code of practice.

The guidance, produced by the Equalities and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) and now approved by ministers, makes it clear that transgender people should instead be offered a third or a gender-neutral space.

The code states that leaving a trans person without access to any services or facilities would be unlikely to be proportionate and could be discriminatory.

The guidance was published on Thursday following the landmark Supreme Court ruling last year that the definition of a woman under the Equality Act should be based on biological sex.

The code of practice sets out how associations, businesses and services open to the public should organise their facilities. It covers a wide range of settings from shopping centres and gyms to hospitals and restaurants. The EHRC is planning to publish guidance for employers and staff facilities at a later date.

Kira Davis responded: "Not my problem. Not any woman's problem." #Accurate.

A good rule of thumb is "trans" means "fake" so just substitute "fake" every time you see "trans X."

So "trans woman" = fake woman (ie, a man)

Notice that his stateme t assumes they are all male trying to be female.

I suspect the rate of female trying to be male is VERY low and they still use the women's restroom.

So, it's ONLY a male trying to be female issue. You never hear of a female trying to be male causing trouble in a men's locker room or restroom. Because it does not happen. Because men and women are different.

89 47> Bathrooms are not real; they are a social construct.

Sex segregated lavatories emerged because Victorian, ordered, civilized societies desired a special place for women to be protected from men as women's presence in public spaces and workplaces increased.

Fun Fact: It was Massachusetts in 1887 that first mandated by law separate toilet facilities for men and women in the workplace where both sexes were employed.

As for Owen Jones and women using the men's room, a detransitioner on X has rolled his eyes a few times and said men don't give af. Person enters room, performs biological function, leaves. No particular care about who's in there doing same.

It's not like the social ritual in the ladies' room -- adjust underwear, makeup, borrow a tampon, call an Uber to escape a nightmare date, have a quick confab with another girl about some guy in the club, etc.

100 Under Labour we have seen the worst rollback of human rights ever in the United Kingdom. even worse than when Section 28 was introduced. Never Forget and Never Forgive.

Agreed, this is the worst rollback of LGBT+ rights I've seen over my lifetime, all under labour. Despite them claiming they're pro LGBT, they've harmed our whole community for years to come. I'll absolutely never forget the betrayal.

The clamp down on protesting is the icing on the cake for me. They leave no option but direct action, then simultaneously make it more risky to resist in every way, even writing some of those laws directly off the back of this.

Even if the wheel somehow turns, and cruelty briefly becomes unfashionable again, none of the people responsible for these things, and the things to come over the next decade, will ever face justice.

No doubt in about 15-20 years the then prime minister will offer a half hearted apology in parliament and that will be the end of it

Kier Starmer was a human rights lawyer, but one of the first things he did was declare he wanted to consult on trans rights with a cis woman who wrote wizard stories 20 years ago.

I believe the studies on this -- to the extent they're reliable at all -- is that F2M "transitions" are more common in tween and younger teenage girls, but it's temporary and mostly for attention. They aren't committed to the conversion (although some, like Ellen Page, do go all the way).

I think the M2F trannies are more deranged, more committed, and more dangerous. These people don't cosplay.

142 Feel for the disabled in the UK, though the public toilets are nice and high. (Equality Act 2010)

Standard Accessible Toilets: These are found in most shopping centers, restaurants, and public venues. Many of these are kept locked to prevent vandalism and require a RADAR Key to open. You can map their locations using the Great British Public Toilet Map.

Changing Places Toilets: These are larger, specialist facilities designed for severely disabled people. They include extra space, adult-sized changing benches, and ceiling hoists. You can use the Changing Places Toilets locator to find these before you travel.

In the absence of separate gender-neutral bathrooms, trans people have sometimes resorted to using accessible (disabled) toilets to avoid confrontation or feeling unsafe in gendered spaces. However, advocates and disability organizations argue that disabled toilets are not an appropriate "catch-all" or "third space" alternative.

A new bathroom battle looms.

But that is totally likely where they get the overgeneralization that we are "assigned a sex at birth (on the certificate)".

The thing about doctors making XYs into "girls", they were girls with off the charts testosterone. Many of them felt that there had been some screwup. Some became sociopaths.

But that's quite different from an XX that "feels" that there is a screw up because it says "Female" on her birth certificate and she really doesn't feel that's accurate.

No, the failures at converting XYs into "girls" shows how much sex chromosomes actually factor into "gender expression".

But that doesn't mean we can wish-cast that it works the other way. And that's what these assholes do.

Nothing about her is male or masculine. Her complex is a bizarre variation on the female "I can fix men" trope. She thinks men should cry more. She thinks men should not be "emotionally shut down", which is a female description of male behavior.

It seems that her main compulsion is that she is going to show men how to be better men: i.e., improve men.

How the fuck did she know that she "felt male", if she didn't resemble the "emotionally shut down" state of most males--which again is a female way of describing men's degree of prioritization of abstractions and structures over just relationships.

Ellen page was sexually assaulted. She would hate me for saying it, but she is textbook “if I am not a female anymore, I can’t be hurt like this again”. She is a tiny, tiny girl. This is how she dealt with trauma and her vulnerability as not just a female, but a very small female. She wasn’t totally tethered to strong mental health to start, and she wasn’t given great care to deal with anything. This is the result. A very, very unhealthy mess of a person.

308 Ellen page was sexually assaulted. She would hate me for saying it, but she is textbook “if I am not a female anymore, I can’t be hurt like this again”. She is a tiny, tiny girl. This is how she dealt with trauma and her vulnerability as not just a female, but a very small female. She wasn’t totally tethered to strong mental health to start, and she wasn’t given great care to deal with anything. This is the result. A very, very unhealthy mess of a person.

I don't think the donations are coming---AID is shut down, foreigners are probably getting spooked as ActBlue is under investigation, DNC is doing poorly at raising funds, etc. etc. And the situational variables around this election--unemployment, economic distress, GOP scandals, etc. etc. don't appear to support a blue wave either.

Just one more hyped media junk reporting for factoid crap where people can believe in false percentages of a bad estimating model.

Endogeneity is a thorough pain in the ass to model and you run into it with public opinion models sometimes---knew a guy that spent all his time on LISREL modeling for it (public opinion colleague) and it is not for the faint of heart.

Trump: There's No Way I'm Stopping ICE Traffic Stops Just Because the Left Has Fully Embraced Violence As Its "Political Speech"

The stops are back on (if they were ever off).

President Donald Trump on Wednesday praised the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and disputed reports it would end traffic stops. He said that traffic stops are key to effective enforcement of immigration laws.

"We must be strong, tough, and smart, and we CANNOT give up one of I.C.E.'s most important and effective Crime Fighting tools, THE TRAFFIC STOP! Once we do, we are playing right into the criminal's hands. The Radical Left Dumocrats would like to see this done, but it won't happen on my watch," Trump said on Truth Social.

Several outlets on Tuesday reported that ICE would curtail agents stopping vehicles as part of the federal agency's nationwide deportation operation. The change in policy followed two fatal shootings of motorists involving ICE agents in one week.

By the way, the man who was shot and killed while attempting to run down ICE in his vehicle was a Columbian immigrant.

The driver of the vehicle was killed in the incident and was identified as Joan Sebastian Guerrero, a Colombian citizen in his 20s.

The Washington Post pointed out that Guerrero "entered the United States via the southern border in September 2023, a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said in a statement, and received work authorization in May 2025."

As I said, this is terrorism and insurrection.

The left is asserting a general right to attack its enemies. In Point Pleasant, NJ, a woman slapped two kids for daring to wear MAGA and pro-ICE clothing.

The woman is herself a foreigner -- a Canadian.

A leftist Canadian woman allegedly slapped a teen who was wearing President Trump-branded clothing on the Jersey Shore over the Fourth of July weekend -- before she was arrested and detained by immigration officials.

Kaitlyn E. Tracey, 33, allegedly recorded herself confronting a group of four girls on the Point Pleasant Beach boardwalk when she became violent on July 3, according to court documents obtained by NJ.com.

Tracey took issue with two of the beachgoers -- who are minors -- wearing "patriotic colored" sweatpants with the words "Trump" and "ICE" before she struck one of them across the face and body, police alleged.


Video surveillance captured Tracey's alleged assault before she left the scene but was identified by police who obtained an arrest warrant for her, the outlet reported.


She was arrested on Monday and charged with endangering the welfare of a child, simple assault, harassment and obstruction, according to court records viewed by The Post.

The teen Tracey allegedly slapped was not injured.

Tracey had been living in Asbury Park with her husband after she entered the US with a passport in 2024, according to the outlet.

This child-beating bitch is now in custody, ironically enough, at the Delaney ICE facility in Newark, the one the other lunatic leftwing women can't stop protesting. (And laying hands on people while they're "protesting," too.)

The Canadian woman who slapped a teenager at the Jersey Shore because she didn't like the girl's MAGA clothing was arrested by ICE and brought to Delaney Hall in Newark -- the very immigration detention center her lefty husband has railed about on social media.

Kaitlyn E. Tracey, 33, was taken into custody after she filmed herself confronting two girls wearing "patriotic colored" sweatpants over Fourth of July weekend at Point Pleasant, one of whom she struck across the face and body, cops said.

Her husband, Matthew Geroni, 42, revealed on TikTok Tuesday that she had been taken to Delaney Hall in a video he said he recorded with the purpose of getting her released from ICE custody "even if that means back to Canada," he said.

Tracey was arrested on Monday and charged with endangering the welfare of a child, simple assault, harassment and obstruction, according to court records viewed by The Post.

The couple have been living in Asbury Park since she entered the US with a Canadian passport in 2024.

It wasn't his first video about the now-infamous detainee facility, which became the site of angry protests and violent clashes between police and anti-ICE demonstrators in recent months.

Geroni posted a TikTok video in June purporting to imitate both sides of the conflict, portraying the protesters as peaceful and the police as violent, mindless thugs.

The video opens with him sitting under the words "peaceful protesters literally standing in their designated first amendment zone," looking confused and scratching his head.

It then cuts to him standing and aiming a gun-like object with which he mimics a rapid-fire shooting motion standing beside the text "State police and [ICE] at Delaney Hall in Newark, NJ."

1, prison, 2, deport for life, 3, take your no-account poodle bitch "husband" with you.

Needs more data. Passport just means what they used as identity papers.

Under what permit status were they admitted entry?
Was an I-94 issued?

Canadians don't need a specific visa/permit to come for a short term visit (shopping, visiting a friend for a couple of weeks, that sort of thing) but if they intend to rent or buy a house and take up residency, then hell yes they need a permit from the USCIS (formerly the INS) to do so!

America is a racist, fascist, oligarchical tyranny that encourages the murder of brown people for sport by government agents who get immunity for taking the lives of the dispossessed.

It is a tyranny of violence and oppression, and everyone who can leave should leave for their own safety.

Not just the brown immigrants and future Americans who just want to make a better life for themselves and their families, but also the legal immigrants, and the naturalized citizens, and the US born citizens who can see the encroaching fascism like 1933 Germany. Did the Jews just stick around in Germany looking for work, or did they flee?

Take the hint, for your own safety! Get out before New Hitler puts you in gas chambers! It's definitely coming!

Also, pro Mamdami nitpickers defending the map pointed out this map was started during the Eric Adams administration. 1) he was a terrible mayor, you're supposed to be doing better, and 2) so what, you should have checked the map before posting it!

NYC city leaders just gave themselves an 18% pay raise, and a 2% guaranteed raise every year. Yet they can't proofread a map?

67 Okay, and I misread, I thought both the husband and the wife were Canadian. Nope, American husband, Canadian wife.

So either they got married and stupidly didn't think they needed to get her permanent residency (aka "the green card") as a spouse with an I-130 + maybe an I-485, or they went through the process and she's a permanent resident legally, and she hasn't become a U.S. Citizen yet. (It takes time, you can't just do it instantly. It also costs quite a few thousand dollars to do.)

Either way, one thing you don't do is get in trouble with the law, at all before you reach full blown citizenship status. FFS, that's a fast-ticket to "Application DENIED" + "GTFO, Deported, LOL". Every legal immigrant knows this.

Every metric of deportations has exploded since Mullin took over from Noem.

He's gone quieter, but that just means Bovino doesn't get headlines about marching into cities. ICE is still there, picking people up, but they're moving in smaller bands and with less fanfare while picking up more and deporting at rates not seen...ever.

Deportation flights are roughly 2x what they were under Noem while holding times of detainees is down to 3-4 weeks from 6-8 early in Trump 2.0.

There is no feasible solution that gets everyone out in 5 days.

There are feasible solutions to get them out over the course of years, and the administration is pulling on every lever.

The most effective are going to be the new Treasury regulations that force banks to treat legal status as a financial risk, cutting even legal immigrants off from things like long-term loans (visa only good for 6 years max? no, you don't get a 30 year lone) to just simple banking accounts.

There's no sexiness to that stuff, so it gets ignored and forgotten, but cutting off illegals (and even some legals) from the American financial system is a huge incentive for them to leave. And it's just started.

123 At some point you have to come to terms with the fact that the federal government is waging war against it's citizens.

Correction. The Republican party is waging war against America.

I'm Dutch and I find it wild that there hasn't been a country wide protest yet like there was when George Floyd was killed, what is stopping like 50 million people from potentially collectively going on the streets and protesting.

People are protesting. The No Kings protests were some of the biggest in US history. And it isn’t doing anything. And sometimes one or two of those protesters get killed for being there, or arrested and potentially sentenced very aggressively. Those risks vs little to no reward is enough to convince me not to participate

"surely he doesn't mean us, we're the good ones." - Latinos for Trump. And over 20% of black men voted for him too...fucking crazy.

Trumps plan is martial law by September and postponement of midterms by October! This is already an authoritarian govt! he wants to spark violent conflicts between ICE and protesters/immigrants to give him cover. The murders are Trump saying "Give me an excuse."

Yeah, that's so weird.

Why aren't there massive protests after the cutting of USAID and a quarter of a trillion in other federal grants by Vance's fraud task force?

I don't know why I bring that stuff up, though. Completely unconnected to "grassroots" uprisings in nations in order to attempt regime change through manufactured populist consensus. That would be weird.

I’m no bootlicker - any idiot knows traffic stops are key enforcement of any and every law. Duh. Local, state, federal.

I don’t like the cops, per se - because it will likely mean a ticket - however they must have the authority to make stops and check out who is on the road, who is in their jurisdiction.

Related - Normal states need to start enforcing CDL requirements, btw. Make California feel Pain.

Collins wants a boost, so she takes credit for "additional training." She gets her media hit.

Trump then waits a day and says "Nah, never mind!" and meanwhile nothing actually changed. It's just to keep the churn rolling.

It's like this breathless circle-jerk about the SAVE Act where *nothing ever happens.* It's just to keep everyone talking about it.

And yes, I worked in politics, and we coordinated these "fights" and also arranged for bills to be tanked by people in safe seats.

We also swapped votes ("I've got two for this, give me two for that") and so much of it was scripted. But reporters pretended it wasn't because they needed the headlines and clicks.

It was a bunch of grey hairs with angry faces and signs and a bunch of college/HS kids who had stopped by the neighboring ice cream shop and were "protesting" while eating ice cream.

There were no middle aged people. And this was in the evening so it isn't that they were at work.

The "protests" are so weak and feeble it defeats the purpose of protesting. You're basically saying to the world "we are weak and impotent, don't pay any attention to us."

There's is crusty old queen who stands on Central Park West, always in the same spot, and always with a cruddy-looking handmade sign duckspeaking some commie bullshit. For a while, it was all anti-ICE.

I'm tempted to give him the finger as I drive by, but he's the type to call the cops and make up some bullshit. My car won't be hard to track down.

Haven't seen him in a while, though. Maybe he's dead.

He wasn't.

He was allowed to retire. He was eligible for one more year of service but chose to retire.

Was it entirely voluntary? Probably not. He was getting a lot of flack that the administration didn't want. So, there was probably a push there.

And, arrests have increased since Bovino and Noem left. Deportation flights have increased since they left.

Bovino and Noem made immigration enforcement a show. There may have been benefits to that, but since they starred in their own show, when the time came to change it from a show to a low-burn strategy that netted more people, they had to go.

227 >>> At some point you have to come to terms with the fact that the federal government is waging war against it's citizens.

Spoiler alert, people of Reddit: the federal government is always waging war on us. From BOTH parties. It's up to us to rein them in and take our power back.

Also, Reddit gets it right, sometimes! A nurse posted on Reddit/nursing that she checked out a coworker/mentor's socials and gasp, he's MAGA! But he's kind, never bring up politics, and everyone tells her she lucked out getting him as a mentor. She asks them for advice on how to handle working with a MAGA.

They all pretty much tell her: suck it up, you will always have to work with people that disagree with you, that's what adults do. What will she do if a patient has Fox News on? That in nursing, you treat rapists and murderers too, and you have to give them all the same care. Suck it up, buttercup, you're in the real world now. It was refreshing.

Some also pointed out that by stalking his socials she's potentially crossing a line, and needs to stop being a creeper and just do her job.

They all pretty much tell her: suck it up, you will always have to work with people that disagree with you, that's what adults do. What will she do if a patient has Fox News on? That in nursing, you treat rapists and murderers too, and you have to give them all the same care. Suck it up, buttercup, you're in the real world now. It was refreshing.

"Of Allenhurst, NJ" - Home values in Allenhurst span historic Victorians and Craftsman-style properties, with an average home value of approximately $2,360,171.

The local rental market is dominated by larger luxury homes and seasonal rentals, with average monthly rent prices generally ranging between $3,300 and $17,000 depending on the size and time of year.

Utility prices are about 3% higher than the national average, and transportation expenses (e.g., gas, tolls, transit fares) are roughly 5% higher.
Grocery prices are stable, sitting just 2% higher than the national average.

New Jersey is known for high property taxes, which directly impact the overall cost of ownership in this upscale borough.

Then,

NBC 10, July 14, 2026, In part, "Contractor killed in Philly was part of transnational criminal group, DHS says
Salis Hanrahan, a 20-year-old contractor who was shot and killed in Philly, was part of a transnational criminal organization, the Department of Homeland Security said.

On Wednesday, July 8, 2026, Salis Hanrahan, 20, was shot and killed along the 400 block of Ripka Street. Witnesses told NBC10 the shooting occurred around 2 p.m. that day as construction workers installed siding on a home. The witnesses said they heard an argument inside the home. A few moments later, Hanrahan walked out of the home and collapsed on the sidewalk, suffering from a gunshot wound to the chest. He was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead a short time later.

Investigators recovered a gun from the scene of the crime. Two days later, on July 10, police announced the owner of the Ripka Street home, 75-year-old George Barr, was arrested in connection to Hanrahan’s death. Barr was charged with murder, possession of an instrument of crime and recklessly endangering another person."

Officially? No. Unofficially? Yes. See below:

Immigration can bar you from entry for up to 10 years, and you have to apply to have the bar lifted after that time, THEN you have to re-apply for lawful entry, and they can simply deem in "inadmissible" and turn you around at the border again.

Unofficially, they can mark your identification in the Customs and Border Patrol system in such a way that it's effectively a "Don't let this asshole in, ever." So you're just chronically "inadmissible".

Biden Slurs and Stumbles His Way Through Ad for His Ghostwritten "Memoir"

This drooling imbecile was paid $10 million by the corrupt corporate media for a book that won't make $2 million.

As ghastly as that corruption is, at least we can take solace in Biden feeling disrespected by the fact he only got $10 million -- the clean, articulate black man (whoah, that's storybook, man!) who proceeded him got $60 million. (Plus a hundred million from propaganda op Netflix, just for existing.)

And now he's doing videos to sell this POS before he dies.


Former President Joe Biden will release his memoir this fall at a date set for two weeks after midterm elections in which Democrats seek to regain control of Congress.

...

The memoir Promise Me, America will focus on his four years leading the nation, as Breitbart News reported.

Many Democrats remain divided on Biden's legacy and his ill-fated journey to seek a second term in the White House while questions have been raised about Biden's mental decline while he was in the White House and the alleged use of an autopen.


His own party's leaders hope to keep the fall campaign focused on the record of Republican President Donald Trump, the AP report notes, rather than that of a man who drifted out of view when all attempts to return to the highest office in the land came to nothing and his own party turned on him.

"'Promise Me, America' is about the challenges we faced as a nation. It's about the decisions I made and why I made them," Biden said in a video statement accompanying Wednesday's announcement. "Most of all, it's about my faith in the promise of America."

Below: A clearly mentally-ravaged Biden slurs his way through an ad for "his" ghostwritten book of lies. This short video has more cuts in it than a Michael Bay action sequence.


Plus: In what is now a beloved Democrat tradition, Chuck Schumer ripped ass while bloviating on camera.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer appeared to suffer an embarrassing mishap on the Senate floor Tuesday when what sounded like a fart interrupted his remarks live on C-SPAN.

Schumer was criticizing President Trump over the war in Iran when the noise broke through the chamber's microphones.

"Now on Iran and the NDAA," the 75-year-old New York Democrat began before briefly pausing and continuing with his speech.

$2 million? Won't make $2 legit. Sure, some NGO or billionaire fake charity will buy some books to keep up appearances, but other than that there is no market whatsoever for this book.

In 2020 Biden never had a chance, and neither did Harris. Everyone knew that.

Biden gets the focus of the blame, in part because he’s the old pasty white guy democrat from 1972.

Harris is an airhead, worse than Biden if that’s possible, and had no chance, ever. The press and media did not want anyone to know this.

I've actually been following this. The "refugee camp" is placed squarely between two rural towns. Piddington, Oxforshire is just one of them. The "camp" will be where they settle the "boat people" who, at that point would have had no valid vetting. Additionally, they have already confirmed that occupants of that "camp" will have the freedom to leave anytime they wish.

Piddington is a rural town people visit to go hiking, and view some of the subsidiary campuses of Oxford University. The estimated population of the camp is not 1000. That's the toned down number. The true expectation is in excess of 2500.

Even the police there are very concerned.

147 I don’t believe Obama got the Netflix money for nothing.

Netflix needed ‘Net Neutrality’ and Obama gave it to them.

The reason Netflix needed it was because, at the time, they feared that the likes of AT&T, Comcast, and the rest of the ISPs were going to start charging Netflix large carriage fees because of the explosive increase in the amount of bandwidth being sent over their networks once Netflix began streaming video to every subscriber.

Net Neutrality put an end to that worry as the Big ISPs were no longer allowed to prioritize or throttle bandwidth hogs and had to treat every IP packet ‘neutrally’.

I’m certain that’s why the Obamas were paid off, I just can’t prove it, and neither can anybody else unless one of the participants confesses to the payoff with proof.

He actually got 15 MILLION more votes than Obama got in 2012, and 12 MILLION more than in 2008. This is all you really need to know there was fraud. The involvement of a foreign government pumping fake ballots into the system would track with the ridiculous number because they likely didn't think about how the total would look when they were doing it across multiple states with their hair on fire.

159 I remember a tale from a Russian defector who worked in Military Intelligence about a time when he was spying out of Vienna the spy head was looking to get more room for his guys and they peeked into the attic of the Embassy. There were these huge boxes of books by ex Premier Nikita Krushchev. Back when he wrote them there were competitions to give away as many as possible and the ambassador there had the bright idea to stuff them in the attic instead.

The GRU had to arrange a secret diplomatic cover mission pack the books, truck them to the airport and ship them to a secret GRU facility to have them burned in total secrecy. The West thought they had gotten some amazing spying win when they were coverting internal skulduggery.

Ruby Rippey-Gibney — the former San Francisco City Hall aide whose affair with Gov. Gavin Newsom nearly upended his political career — will tell her side of the story for the first time in an upcoming Vanity Fair piece, The California Post has learned.

Details of the piece remain unclear, but a source familiar with the matter said Rippey-Gibney intends to recount her perspective on the affair that rocked San Francisco politics in 2007 and has remained one of the most embarrassing moments in then-mayor of San Francisco Newsom’s life and career.

274 I'm enjoying the permanent DST vs permanent Standard time debate. Both sides have a point.

We've discovered that having light outside when you wake up is important. It causes your body to stop producing melatonin and it changes your cortisol levels. It reduces the issues people have with SAD and other mood regulation issues.

On the other hand, it's nice to have light at the end of your day. Outdoor chores, exercise, etc. are all nice to do outside in the afternoon.

I'm predicting that many of the people screaming that changing the clocks twice a year is STOOOPID are going to be shouted down after we implement this system.

I honestly don't get the hate for changing the time. I set my alarm on my phone, and my phone auto-adjusts. I never miss the time change and my body figures it out just fine. I'd rather adjust my clock to maximize sunlight during my day.

It and almost every other time he was an idiot before the press has been covered over.

For instance, the "Easter Bunny leading Biden away" refers to a viral incident during the April 2022 White House Easter Egg Roll. While former President Joe Biden was answering reporters' questions about Afghanistan, an aide in an Easter Bunny costume stepped in and ushered him away to prevent him from taking further questions.

The Easter Bunny was revealed to be Meghan Hay, who served as the White House Director of Message Planning, running interference for the President's public messaging.

He 'assumed' office January 20, 2021.

295 A Biden presidential memory care center would be more fitting. And we need more of those.

The day care center/elderly Medicare scams enrage me, because the average middle class people taking care of their elderly loved ones are struggling. It's so expensive. Then you have fake centers getting millions and pocketing it.

I kind of loved that Nick Shirley found a legit elderly Korean day care center in NYC, and the owner gave him a list right away of all the scam centers to check out. The scam ones are pocketing all their clients and making them lose money, while skimping on services the seniors actually need. They are gong to make the legit centers go bankrupt.

My aunt once sold him a bunch of antique thread spools at the Rose Bowl Flea Market back in the 90s. She said that he was quiet and friendly. It helps that she was savvy enough not to gush over him, she just quietly told him that she loved his work when they were settling up.

Which was ruined when he went to the next seller, who exclaimed OH MY GOD, JOHN MALKOVICH! and practically dropped to his knees and opened wide.

In a National Address Tomorrow Night, Trump Will Reveal a Far More Extensive Foreign Penetration of the 2020 US Elections Than Ever Known; Plus, RussiaGate Was Faked to Protect the Real Country Intervering in Elections: China, on Behalf of Democrats

From Paul Sperry:

@paulsperry_

Jul 14

DEVELOPING: President Trump to announce in prime-time speech Thurs night FBI/CIA/ODNI have uncovered "shocking" intelligence of foreign election interference (not Russian) in recent US elections inclg 2020 + COVER-UP. Directors Ratcliffe, Patel to certify evidence...developing...


So here's what we're learning from all these declassified materials: The US Intelligence Community *juiced* intel to make it seem like Moscow interfered in the 2016 election to help Trump, but then *buried* intel indicating Beijing interfered in the election to help Biden in 2020


Paul Sperry
@paulsperry_


BREAKING: I'm told forthcoming declassified docs will prove foreign penetration of 2020 election was deeper than anything the Russians were alleged to have done in 2016. Included hacking into state voter rolls. ID and ballot fraud. Yet Wray FBI +IC certified election was "secure"

Paul Sperry
@paulsperry_

BREAKING: Docs also will reveal Biden admin cooked a 2021 Intelligence Community Assessment to make it appear pro-Trump Russia had still been election interference threat in 2020 when in fact real threat from a pro-Biden nation.ICA used as "red herring" to throw public off scent.

Paul Sperry
@paulsperry_


BREAKING: Acting AG Todd Blanche just testified "we are investigating" an FBI agent's sworn affidavit detailing how the Comey FBI had no legal predication to pursue a FISA warrant and to wiretap Trump adviser Walid Phares in 2017. Here's my RCI scoop regarding that case.

By the way: The Democrats are pressuring the networks to not carry this address:

We'll find out in about 34 hours or so.

But I seriously doubt there will be an effort to actually remove Ossoff and Warnock.

I suspect there will be arrests of Fulton County and maybe even GA state election officials in the next day or so preceding the address along with announcements of sweeping oversight over elections in suspicious jurisdictions (Harmeet Dhillon has already announced poll watchers from DOJ in a dozen jurisdictions just for primary voting).

GA is going to very weirdly swing hard to the right this year, and the conventional wisdom will be somewhere between voter suppression and Bottoms as the gubernatorial candidate.

45 You know the usual suspects are going to look at however tall a mountain of data Trump releases and say "It took him all that time to fabricate all of that!"

Because when Trump seems concerned about foreign interference in our elections (which the Dems cried for after 2004, btw), it's not a really serious thing.

He just wants to jail his political enemies.

47 yeah, behind a paywall but you can sometimes grab it if you're quick:

It sure looks like tech billionaires and foreign dictatorships gave us Trump in 2024. This is as bad as the massive Russian bot presence on Facebook and Twitter back in 2016, which Robert Mueller documented gave Trump the presidency that time.

A peer-reviewed study released Thursday in Nature, the world's most prestigious scientific journal, has finally put hard numbers to what a lot of us suspected the moment the 2024 election was called for Trump (and Republicans in Congress) by the big networks: the algorithms that control our largest social media platforms intentionally and explicitly tilted the playing field, and they tilted it for Donald Trump and the GOP.

--
Way back in late 2020 and 2021, there were several who said that the sophisticated and coordinated injection of ballots could not have been accomplished by individuals or groups.
That is had all the fingerprints of a nation's intelligence service.

Recall:
- hundreds of 1000s of ballots, specific to hundreds of jurisdictions were printed
- and filled in State A
- for voters in State B who had not already voted and would not vote
- shipped to State B
- where various election officials and postal workers, and gaps in same, were exploited in order to inject those ballots into the count
- and all of this was being run in real-time during early voting
- with 10s of thousands in reserve, which they frantically deployed about 9pm on Election Night

But there is "no evidence" of fraud ....

That's going to be a running narrative from Trump until next Congress.

But with the death of Lindsey Graham, we went from 0% change of it passing to 0% chance of it passing.

Mitch, Ernst, Cassidy, Cornyn, Tillis, and Murkowski were never going to vote for it in a final vote. The cowards (like Ernst) would hide behind those willing to "stand up to Trump" but there was never going to be the votes for it once those six decided that the SAVE act was beneath them. Especially once Cassidy and Cornyn lost their primaries and need to pretend to care about what the people wanted.

A much higher chance of it passing next Congress.

And besides, imagine a miracle happened and it passed today. It wouldn't be in effect for this year's election.

Posted by: I used to have a different nic

The whole concept of tolling is a complicated subject in law, statutes of limitation are really just codified court decisions on tolling as special cases but it depends on the specific charges or civil liability, when it was uncovered, and a lot of other factors making simple predictions of this or that unreliable.

Tolling is one of the problems that a lot of civil litigation lawyers can easily screw up on which can prevent or allow lawsuits to proceed. A bit simpler in criminal matters but even there, you have to dig into the actual charges, when the criminal evidence was discovered, and so on.

Law is an art, not a science, and skilled attorneys never give a yes/know answer without digging in a lot of cases. That fact it is an art is what makes Democrat lawfare even possible--they rely on judges with blinders to go along with their actions that on the whole of the law appear unlawful or unreasonable.

Politics under every form of government demonstrate corruption because it involves people who are naturally sinful.

So, once you disregard the perfect, you aim for the possible. A system where corruption is discouraged in officeholders and virtuous behavior encouraged.

That is doable. The goal of no sin in people is beyond mere humans to fix. And any sin in people will be reflected when those people are put into office.

The Department of Homeland Security has a website called the “Worst of the Worst.”

These are all criminal illegal aliens that have committed heinous crimes.

You can filter the illegal aliens by state.

So, I thought to myself, “What if some of these criminal illegal aliens are voting?”

We plugged the illegal aliens into the Pennsylvania voter rolls & — sure enough —

we are finding that many are not only ACTIVELY registered to vote, but that they have also voted in federal elections.

Imagine if a legion of Americans across the country used the DHS WOW website to find illegal aliens on the voter rolls.

This is a game-changer & I have no doubt that the powers that be DON’T want you to see this information

You left out millions in Senate campaign funds and the next two years trying to persuade Alaskans for another go.

Murkcow, especially if the Senate has GOP gains, is increasingly isolated as her cronies and patron Mitch leaves office. GOP gains one or two seats, Murcow and even Collins become irrelevant.

And Trump has appointments to offer--like ambassadorships, offices for cronies and family, etc. to essentially change the calculus for some of them. Plus their donor networks may or may not want their Congress critter to play ball which is difficult for outsiders to see. And their staffers have their ass hanging in the wind from coming unemployment and loss of juice which helps them act as inside advocates.

Patronage is a dirty word but often results in gains in good public policy when used correctly.

It's more about how holding times on detainees have dropped significantly because of increased efficiencies in immigration courts (hiring new judges, mega master hearings, etc.) so that they're held for a lot less time.

If your average detainee is in holding for 25 days, you have far less need for overall holding than if the average is 60 days.

Frorm the shocked reaction of Putin and the Russian embassy it was pretty clear somebody was being set up but is was not clear what this what all about and it was mostly forgotten.

Thinking back it was clearly laying the groundwork for the whole Russian collusion op. At the expense of truly pissing off the Russians, BTW and complete disregard for international relations with them.

One of the most vocal about it was Australia, who participated in trying to set up George Papadopoulos. The UK to used the Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) shared intelligence with US agencies on Trump in an effort to build a Russia connection. They, also, used a retired intelligence officer to create the Steele Dossier.

Further, much of the materials and imagery were purloined from secure facilities that have no connection to the internet or email, ever. By design, to preclude this top secret material from being hacked or diverted in the first place.

And no one could find any written rules or laws that stated what was supposed to happen if papers were missing or not signed. Patrick Kennedy was the guy in charge, and he thugged his way out of every demand for information.

However, she could have been charged with scores of felonies for her emails. Never was. Maddening.

The specific statute in question does not require intent to prove a crime, simply that you took classified information and put it at risk which she did. The whole intent search was a blinder.

A poor navy sob went to prison for taking some pictures of his sub.

A US Navy sailor was sentenced on Friday to a year in prison for taking photos of classified areas inside a nuclear attack submarine while it was in port in Connecticut.

Kristian Saucier, of Arlington, Vermont, appeared in federal court in Bridgeport, where a judge also ordered him to serve six months of home confinement with electronic monitoring during a three-year period of supervised release after the prison time. He pleaded guilty in May to unauthorized detention of defense information and had faced five to six years in prison under federal sentencing guidelines.

Saucier admitted to taking six photos of classified areas inside the USS Alexandria in 2009 when it was in Groton and he was a 22-year-old machinist mate on the submarine.

No, I'm not high, I'm not talking about the emails or the SCIF mishandlings.

There was another damn form, can't remember, that we were waiting for breathlessly, and then Toensing found Hillary's... and it was unsigned. Or something like that. And everyone in their right mind was furious to discover that that line "I understand that failing to provide full and accurate information could subject me to criminal prosecution" on a fucking job application didn't appear on these federal forms.

My bet is it wasn't just one.

Jack Smith Shredded the Constitution to Spy on Republican Congressmen, Then Repeatedly Lied About It Under Oath

Congressional speech, including phone calls and text messages, are protected against subpoenas by the Speech and Debate Clause.

There is a bullshit way around this. The DOJ will sometimes seize these messages anyway but they first go to a "Filter Team" to make sure that nothing in the messages is protected by the Speech and Debate Clause. If a message falls into that category, it's not passed on to prosecutors.

But Jack Smith said "YOLO" and just read all the messages he wanted to read, without any Filter Team clearing them first.

And of course, 90% of those he illegally, unconstitutionally spied on were Republican congressmen.



Newly released records reveal that Special Counsel Jack Smith's team bypassed mandatory protocols to secretly access the private text messages of 44 members of Congress during the probe into President Donald Trump, the Justice Department confirmed Tuesday.

The disclosure, confirmed by records released by the Senate Judiciary Committee, has become a major constitutional flashpoint.

As lawmakers confront the reality that their private communications were accessed without following established filter protocols, the inquiry is igniting a broader debate over the separation of powers between the executive branch and the legislative body.

"Communications from Members of Congress pertaining to their official legislative duties are protected from criminal prosecution under the Constitution's Speech or Debate Clause," the Senate Judiciary's press release said.

The Speech or Debate Clause of the U.S. Constitution (Article I, Section 6) serves as a check on executive power and is designed to prevent members of Congress from being "questioned in any other Place," ensuring they cannot be subjected to the scrutiny of the Justice Department or the judicial branch for their legislative acts.

Yet DOJ records released to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, reveal that former Special Counsel Jack Smith's team reviewed the texts of 44 members of Congress, including 40 Republicans and four Democrats, during the investigation into President Donald Trump.

..

"This is a blatant abuse of power, and exactly what our Founders warned about," Senator Rand Paul, R-Ky., also wrote on X. Paul also called out Jack Smith, where, during a December 2025 congressional deposition when he was asked under oath whether his team had reviewed the content of text messages belonging to members of Congress, he answered, "No."

...


While the Filter Team's purpose was to prevent investigators from the Special Counsel's Office and the FBI from accessing privileged materials among records obtained, evidence shows that investigators bypassed this, potentially infringing on constitutional guardrails, according to the release.

..

The phones were associated with a long list of officials serving in the White House during President Trump's first term, including Trump himself, as well as Stephen Miller, Rudy Giuliani, Kellyanne Conway, Peter Navarro, the president's daughter Ivanka Trump, former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and former Vice President Mike Pence.

Smith's investigative team downloaded and began reviewing the texts without waiting for the Filter Team's evaluation.

...

Meanwhile, the scope of this investigative overreach has been igniting sharp backlash on Capitol Hill.

...

Missouri Senator Josh Hawley also slammed the findings of the DOJ records, writing on X, "Joe Biden's DOJ not only tapped my phone; I just learned they ILLEGALLY obtained my texts with members of President Trump's administration," adding, "Everyone involved needs to be PROSECUTED."

Lawmakers are now calling for a full-scale investigation into the breach, decrying what Senator Ron Johnson described as the "Biden administration's weaponization of the Justice Department." At the core of their concerns is whether the government has prioritized its investigative reach over constitutional restraints.

David Strom adds that Smith has always been a notoriously partisan operator who could be counted on to break the law to advance the interests of the Democrat Party -- which is precisely why Merrick Garland broke the law to appoint him.

Jack Smith, the illegally appointed Special Prosecutor whom Biden's Justice Department sicced on Donald Trump, is a perjurer.

That should surprise nobody; for years now it has been obvious that he is a partisan hack with a burning desire to take down Donald Trump, which is why the Justice Department violated its own rules (eventually destroying their case) in order to appoint him. They knew they could count on him to break any rule, tell any lie, and cross every ethical boundary to get his man.

Learn to code. In a prison classroom.

The criminal Jack Smith perjured himself, telling Congress he had not read any messages. And he told this lie repeatedly.


Flashback: Jack Smith lied in a warrant to keep his spying secret, telling corrupt Judge Boasberg that Ted Cruz (among others) would shred evidence if the law were followed and they were alerted they were being illegally spied upon.

There is a third, and in some ways they are the worst. They are the ones that are productive, hardworking Americans, and on paper and in their daily lives live like a conservative. Fiscally responsible. But they latch onto every woke cause possible, virtue signal every leftist talking point, and often raise the uber daddy rich kids.

A lot of first gen immigrant Asian and Indian families I grew up with were this way, as were blue collar kids who went to college and got white collar jobs. They benefit the most from capitalism and the American dream, and yet then teach their kids to believe it's evil. While living like a conservative. Crazy subversive. The hardest to dismiss because they are smart, should know better and be more self aware.

These were the ones Spencer Pratt was trying to appeal to the most. Hard working libs who buy into the lies, but at some point, the reality about how bad liberal policies actually are, and how it's destroying the cities they love, and might finally red pill them.

it should be a lower standard to investigate an elected official than a private citizen. Don't like it? Don't run for office. If you're in office you need to be above reproach, it unironically should be a job where "if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear."

Republican politicians love acting like something that is routinely done to average Americans, that they sanction, is appalling because it's done to them

All my work emails are on the company server that HR can review at any time. IGs should be able to monitor all of it.

Lol Jack Smith doesn’t care and I’m sure he isn’t intimidated in the slightest. Hold him accountable for what? They’re so petty and vindictive

Republicans are used to dealing with maliciously weak and incompetent democrats. They literally cannot imagine the pushback someone competent like Smith is capable of.

One of the maddening things we discovered about those email CRIMES and other SCIF violations and just absolute dgaf activity in Hillary's Dept of State and everywhere else during the O-dministration was that violating written regulations carried NO PENALTY!! In fact, as I recall there were some papers that "had to" be filed before a person could commence their duties that weren't filed, weren't signed. Patrick Kennedy was the thug who maintained the chaos by simply refusing to follow the law and (I think) firing people who tried to. I remember that.

Follow, please..

William J. Burns served as the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) during the Biden administration.

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is an independent agency that reports directly to the Director of National Intelligence.

Avril Haines served as the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) throughout the entirety of the Biden administration, from January 2021 to January 2025.

Before stepping into the DNI role, she possessed significant national security experience, having served as the Deputy Director of the CIA and the Principal Deputy National Security Advisor during the Obama administration.

During their time together at the CIA, Avril Haines was under John Brennan.

The CIA spied on Senate staffers investigating the agency's post-9/11 interrogation and detention program.

In 2014, the internal CIA IG confirmed it. At the time, then-CIA Director John Brennan initially & furiously denied the allegations.

Detailed findings have been documented by EPIC & others.

159 Jack Smith, and the judges who aided him, may not have taken up arms and engaged in violent overthrow of the US government.

But what they were doing was no less dangerous and deadly.

They intended to decapitate and destroy the Republican Party, via indictments and prison.
To cement the Democrats into one-party rule forever.

They would have won the Presidency, indicted enough Republicans in Congress to take majorities and instantly would have:
- mandatory nationwide mail-in ballots to all registered voters and ranked choice voting in every federal election.
- expand the Supreme Court and pack it with 5 new Dem Justices
- add PR and DC as states
- wide open border

America and the Constitution would be dead.

And the Boomer GOPe?

I did.

A few things.

1. Polling in NC, especially in summer, is notoriously awful.

2. Cunningham was polling better against Tillis at the same time in 2020.

3. Registration changes greatly advantage Repubilcans.

4. Federal races tend to be more purely partisan than state level races (think Hogan in MD gov. vs. his senate race).

5. Cooper has issues stemming from Helene and crime (Ilyna).

6. Cooper, super popular governor with no downside, can't hit 50%.

Cooper is the underdog.

177 In the days of O& Joe,

Former Senate staffers could not sue the CIA or John Brennan for searching their computers because of sovereign immunity. This legal doctrine shields the federal government and its officials acting in their official capacities from most civil lawsuits unless Congress has explicitly waived that immunity, which it has not for this type of constitutional tort.

Because the staffers could not pursue a lawsuit for damages, the resolution was handled politically and administratively rather than in the courts. The dispute was heavily framed as a constitutional issue.

Instead of individual legal action, Senate leaders handled the breach directly as an Intelligence Committee oversight dispute to protect the legislative branch's checks and balances over the executive branch.

And the DOJ declined to pursue.

Sovereign immunity is not sacrosanct--fwiw, there is a doctrine, ultra vires, that makes government people doing illegal things both criminally and civilly liable.

Not used much in recent years, but the liability goes to the individual doing the illegal act, not the US per se. Came from the old King can do no wrong but his ministers can and have in English common law.

And you have Six Unknown Federal Agents v. Bivins which creates constitutional torts as well.

Law itself depends a lot on context, the court(s) reviewing the actions, and politics.

A possible interpretation:

College educated adults are generally downwardly mobile socially right now because of the overabundance of degrees combined with the injection of foreign labor in the college educated labor pool, making post-college employment difficult and their promised sinecures impossible. So, they trend towards socialism.

Non-college educated adults are either staying the same or getting better and don't feel the same antagonism towards the current economic model of the American engine as their counterparts with college degrees.

Plausible but a lot of the action is happening outside the DNC for Democrats nowadays with their whole constellation of ngos and nesting doll contributions of money and orders.

I don't think the DNC is the center of gravity anymore for the Dems on ops--they just defend them when exposed. The energy and activist core of the Dems is outside the party machinery.

237 The whole point of DSA this cycle is to begin to solve every Democrat problem from 2024. No message (it gives them one), no energy (they get to fake it with lots of plants and mix in some true dummies), no youth ("everyone" knows young people are communists).

It also solves the masculinity problem in part by giving them youth, energy and a message. Without this bullshit DSA astroturfing, Democrats were floating around with nothing but old ugly people spouting complaints and hate while Trump corraled all the good "centrist" stuff over to the R's.

So now it's YOUNG ugly people spouting complaints and hate but inside a nifty "new" message. They can then leverage their Pedowood phonies to put a nice coat of varnish on tired old communism and make it seem "fresh". And probably also appoint a presidential candidate that can be seen as "bridging" the two factions.

254 College educated adults are generally downwardly mobile socially right now because of the overabundance of degrees combined with the injection of foreign labor in the college educated labor pool, making post-college employment difficult and their promised sinecures impossible. So, they trend towards socialism.

Non-college educated adults are either staying the same or getting better and don't feel the same antagonism towards the current economic model of the American engine as their counterparts with college degrees.

Wednesday Morning Rant

mannixape2.jpg

A Trial Balloon?

This week, CNBC published their insane lists of the best and worst states. Much fun has been poked at CNBC in the wake of these lists, especially their list of worst states. The ranking is almost purely political. Not enough kowtowing to trannies? Bad state. Not enough unions? Bad state. Not enough abortion? Bad state. One of the few objective measures in the qualification for "worst" status is crime - and even then, if you subtract the urban (that is, Democrat) centers from the statewide figures, the numbers tend to start collapsing. The list of "good" states is much the same. They do this every year, but this year is particularly absurd and the commentary has been everything from outrage to bafflement to guffawing laughter, all of which seem more or less appropriate.

It's absurd and low-value on its face, and everyone can plainly see it. So what gives, beyond the obvious appeal of clickbait to a dying enterprise? I suspect that this pair of articles was a trial balloon, much like the Party sent up during COVID using its preferred high-brow outlet, The Atlantic. This may be the low-brow equivalent. If this bears out, expect a a period of relative quiet on this topic, followed by an increasing drum-beat of articles from more outlets about how awful the "bad" states and those like them are, and how great the "good" sates and those like them are. There is a reason for this if it happens.

It is likely waning now, but we're coming off one of the largest peacetime migrations in American history. A lot of people have moved in the past decade, and not just down the street or to a better neighborhood. It is plain that on CNBC's list, "red states" are bad and "blue states" are good, but there's more going on over the covers when you look at population. Per the Census estimates from April, 2020 as compared to July, 2025, the US total population increased by 3.1%. That is the baseline. So what about the best and worst?

CNBC "Worst" States
- Tennessee: +5.83%
- Texas: +8.78%
- Indiana: +2.75%
- Louisiana: -0.85%
- Georgia: +5.50%
- Utah: +8.17%
- Missouri: +1.88%
- Alabama: +3.34%
- Oklahoma: +4.14%
- Arkansas: +3.43%

CNBC "Best" States
- Vermont: +0.25%
- New Jersey: +2.79%
- Minnesota: +2.17%
- Connecticut: +2.24%
- Hawaii: -1.54%
- New Hampshire: +2.74%
- Virginia: +2.88%
- North Dakota: +2.60%
- Massachusetts: +1.72%
- Nebraska: +2.86%

Of CNBC's 10 "worst" states, seven of them grew population faster than the United States. Of CNBC's 10 "best" states, zero of them grew faster than the United States overall. In real terms, the entire "best" list has lost population over the past five years. Its "worst" states include most of the big "red" states, but it's "best" list doesn't include several of the big "blue" states. As a bonus, let's look at a handful of big, major-player states that didn't make either list:
- Illinois: -0.80%
- New York: -1.00%
- California: -0.51%
- Florida: +8.93%
- Ohio: +0.86%
- Arizona: +6.51%

Ouch. Deep blue California, New York and Illinois all shrank in nominal terms. On the red side, Florida grew even more than Texas and Ohio shrank in real terms. Purple Arizona grew more than twice as fast as the country as a whole.

The gigantic migration of the past several years is going to have profound consequences on electoral distribution and power dynamics - especially if (and it is a big "if") the red state population magnets remain red states. Population movement can cause major political and cultural change, which we've seen writ large as some states of the Interior West fell like dominoes, moving from red or purple to solid blue and how Florida moved from purple to red (thanks in large part to electoral reform and reduced cheating, but still...). If this migration serves to reinforce rather than degrade the targets of the migration, the ripples through the power structure are barely even being felt yet. I think this is what the establishment fears, is why CNBC went full retard with their lists this year - and why I expect to see more excoriation of the popular red states and more articles about how wonderful the blue states are.

People have spent the better part of a decade voting not just with their ballots or with their wallets, but with their feet. This has also been largely ignored by the mainstream, which is notable because this has been a big and consequential realignment spread over years. During this time, most of the establishment - regardless of nominal party affiliation - has been pretending it isn't happening. It is too big to continue ignoring it and I think this is a sign that the establishment is finally starting to acknowledge what has happened and to attempt to slow any more motion in the same direction. If this assumption is correct and this is the establishment's motivation, they waited far, far too long. The horses are out of the barn. The Great Migration has already redrawn the map. A media salvo and associated pressure campaigns now will be too little, too late.

The only real question is whether the Great Migration reinforces conservatism at its destinations, or whether the red states will fall. If this pair of articles is indeed a trial balloon and more follow with greater intensity and frequency, it will be a strong indicator that the establishment fears that the Great Migration is a reinforcing trend for its enemies - that is, for Americans.

Posted by: t-bird at July 15, 2026 11:07 AM (z0cWr)

18 This "debate" tends to lack much nuance because the people making it have so little command of electoral history. Yes, they might know state maps from presidential elections, but not counties. And if you don't know how dramatic shifts were in the 1990s, then trying to guess about a red state going blue through migration is pure guesswork.

Basically, in 1988 lots of rural counties voted for Dukakis and core suburbs voted strongly for Bush. Then 1992 happened, and Perot got huge percentages of the vote, especially in counties that were primed to flip. Fast forward to 1996, and Northeastern counties were voting +50% for Clinton, and Dole was comfortably winning rural areas.

Vermont (the best example people give of a state flipping because of migration) actually shows exactly the same pattern as Delaware or Connecticut from 1988-1996. I'm not convinced that migration does anything other than reinforce existing trends.

41 I'm shocked that NH made the "best" list because even though our federal elections go 100% to Democrats (I strongly suspect fraud in the big cities is responsible for that), our state and local government is owned lock, stock, and barrel by Republicans. There's also the libertarian diaspora out in the western part of the state, which should lose them points.

I tell people that NH is the one island of sanity in New England.

The Great Migration refers to internal migration within the United States as the American population self-sorts across states.

That pattern at scale began in 2020 with COVID and BLM riots. It's an observable pattern that saw an uptick in internal migration, hence the term the Great Migration.

Probably true as far as it goes--one of the big drivers is political socialization--when a person adopts a semi permanent political id and that is affected by their age cohort, experiences during that cohort's political founding (between 18-30 or so), and the success or lack thereof of their adopted political party at the time.

If you overlaid percentage of New Deal and Baby Boom cohorts with the county voting records, then I suspect you would find some correlation and the new 'migrants' would move to an area already simpatico with their chosen id.

New England is a aging backwater of US economy and I suspect that a lot of these people there are political fossils of the New Deal and Baby Boom that are supplemented demographically by those going to higher education institutions in that area that find it congenial with their indoctrinated political views.

In terms of foreign populations being addressed right now, you have to look at the net negative population growth of the US in 2025, record high forced deportations (roughly 1.2 million, 4x what Eisenhower did), self-deportations (based on surveys and previously observed patterns of 3-4x the rate of forced deportations, so between 4-5 million), restrictions on all visa classes (down double digits across the board, the admin can't kill the visa classes since they were created by Congress), investigations into visa fraud (yes, including H1-Bs which is being used a precedent to end the OPT program which is also being investigated), and the new Treasury regulations that inform banks that they have to treat an individual's legal status (or lack thereof) in the US as a risk factor in terms of them being able to pay back loans and things.

Have you tried incorporating more of the topical movies into some videos? I know it's impossible to do "Supergirl" on an erudite channel such as your own nor are you likely looking to insert yourself into the culture war but I would strongly consider finding a way to make a discussion heavily involve current thing. The Odyssey and Nolan would provide ample opportunity to do that.

That would appear IMO to be the best way for a movie channel to be "boosted". And yes I know no one does that anymore because it's what everyone else is doing.

I can't recommend that anyone who isn't a Leftist stay in a deep blue state, though.

Things are not going to get better, at least with regard to the suppurating rift between Left and Right. This is a harsh political reality.

These blue states are going to get worse and worse, faster and faster, as they grow more and more extreme. That will have universally negative consequences for them, but they will be worst for the people these increasingly aggressive authoritarians perceive as their enemies.

116 108 Have you tried incorporating more of the topical movies into some videos? I know it's impossible to do "Supergirl" on an erudite channel such as your own nor are you likely looking to insert yourself into the culture war but I would strongly consider finding a way to make a discussion heavily involve current thing. The Odyssey and Nolan would provide ample opportunity to do that.

That would appear IMO to be the best way for a movie channel to be "boosted". And yes I know no one does that anymore because it's what everyone else is doing.

That was the objective of the Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die video.

I just choose little movies people don't care about.

What I'm going to do instead is about "Director DNA" movies. The one movie by a director that best defines them fully as a filmmaker.

So, hook is big names. There's contrarianism within it as well. Combine that with the right thumbnail, and it could grow. And it encourages discussion because "no, it's not X movie, it's Y movie."

Gives you more content and more things for fans of those particular movies to stumble across. So don't necessarily limit it to a singular answer even if that would be your instinct. You could call them thought experiments or something catchier.

155 G'morn. Starting my AOS day here-now.😎☕

So, Joe, you finally got me to look at that Worst States article. To see what they had to say about the Sooner State.

Oklahoma imposes one of America’s strictest bans on abortion, even though studies, including one by the National Bureau of Economic Research last year, found abortion bans increase net migration outflows, particularly among single adults.

Sure not seeing a problem here. Don't want those particular single adults anyway. Ironic (or something like) that "Strengths" lists: Childcare.

The other "negative" is we don't raise the d@mned minimum wage. Which, as we know, is really $0.

A divided Oklahoma Supreme Court on Tuesday, March 21, 2023, overturned a portion of the state’s near total ban on abortion, ruling women have a right to abortion when pregnancy risks their health, not just in a medical emergency.

As I recall, nowadays pregnancy risks health 0% of the time. Depending on the definition of "health risk," of course. My personal Overton Window has certainly moved over the decades toward "rare to the point of never."

It's a great state in so many ways. But not for CNBC customers, thanks.

the poly whatever it is parasite is something that grows on human waste contaminated farmland, if the human waste carries the parasite. It is either from sewage, casual crapping or contaminated irrigation water. Generally these risks are reduced in small farms. If you know the local farmer you will probably be ok. You could also bug the neighbor who has a garden to put in extra lettuce or beans for you.

203 They have already Californicated Utah. It's part of why we have a blue house seat now. And why the once cheap cost of living has skyrocketed, and it's impossible for anyone to find affordable housing. The young couples here that crank out lots of babies can't afford to buy starter homes for their new families.

A very old friend of mine came to visit Utah from the Bay Area, one of her friends moved near me and she invited her to go see it. (Yes she didn't come to see ME, but her friend and the new house, but that's another story. We did get lunch though and she payed, which was super kind.) Californians swarmed the housing market after Covid, paying cash and offering above price, freezing out actual Utahns. Sold their postage stamp apartments in CA and got a huge house with land in UT.

So if a list is telling more woke libs to stay away from UT, good, because we need all the help we can get keeping people away.

206 "Per the Census estimates from April, 2020 as compared to July, 2025, the US total population increased by 3.1%."

How much of that was illegals? Probably 3.09%.

So calculating anything off of that baseline is gonna be difficult if not impossible, and a downward trend from there can be a good thing.

NYC lost some ppl, but approximately 70% of the loss was illegals leaving. That's a good thing. I'd be happy if even more would leave.

The blue seat in Utah is because of judicial fuckery, and the response from the legislature has been so vociferous that the packing of the court and the retirements since is going to make the Utah Supreme Court one of the most conservative in the nation within a period of about a year.

250 Another Treasury regulation was that anyone on benefits is no longer allowed to send money out of the country. That one was a few months ago.

Posted by: TheJamesMadison

================

I'm always curious about how these things are enforced. Also, has Treasury gotten back to us on how much less money is going out of the country?

Depends on where the wire originates from. Real banks require all kinds of ID when opening an account, so they can pretty easily track and cross-reference your ID when you send a wire.

But the western unions and similar (sleazy?) operations? I'm not sure. I think treasury might have to bring some prosecutions against them before they fly right.

251 A new "Kroger Marketplace" opened up in town. It's supposed to be, I dunno', something special. They sell assorted goods beyond just food. Like housewares and the like. My wife would like to go and see it.

I'm betting the produce is skimpy and full of rotten or nearly rotten stuff. Like the other Kroger's around here. They all buy from the same supplier, so why would this place be any different?

Yet, the wife... she want's to go and "experience" this mega market. I'll need an edible when we get home.

252 242 >>> All for a single House seat that Democrats won't hold for more than a single term.

TJM, The previous Utah map sliced up super blue SLC into pie slices. The new blue house seat is now all of those pie slices together. It's never going to be red, it's blue forever.

I know about the judicial effery (and the judge sleeping with one of the map advocates), but part of what spurred it in the first place is the blue of SLC getting brighter blue from more lefties moving there. The new woke CA Karen carpetbaggers adding their shrieks to the shrieks already there.

Posted by: Carpetbaggers and Scalawags

There is a third, and in some ways they are the worst. They are the ones that are productive, hardworking Americans, and on paper and in their daily lives live like a conservative. Fiscally responsible. But they latch onto every woke cause possible, virtue signal every leftist talking point, and often raise the uber daddy rich kids.

A lot of Asian and Indian families I grew up with were this way, as were blue collar kids who went to college and got white collar jobs. They benefit the most from capitalism and the American dream, and yet then teach their kids to believe it's evil. While living like a conservative. Crazy subversive. The hardest to dismiss because they are smart, should know better and be more self aware.

These were the ones Spencer Pratt was trying to appeal to the most. Hard working libs who buy into the lies, but at some point, the reality about how bad liberal policies actually are, and how it's destroying the cities they love, and might finally red pill them.

The thing to keep in mind about the strawberry/fruit sellers in the Home Depot parking lot, or the flower sellers standing in the median at the traffic light.... they're paying off their debt to the cartels/coyotes with those sales. The cartels buy up truckloads of fruit and distribute it to the illegals that pay to cross the border. The cartels don't bother trying to get you to pay in advance, because they make more by having you go into debt to them. And you can't refuse to sell, or run, because they know where your family lives, both here in the US or in Mexico. You run, and a very nice man from the cartel will visit your parents in Chihuahua.

Basically, the fruitsellers are cartel slaves.

271 Wonder if this could be a factor -

Almost half of all DACA recipients reside in California (about 28%) and Texas (around 17%). Other states with significant populations include Illinois (5%), New York (4%), and Florida (4%)

(DACA) appears to be beneficial as far as stability & homeownership. Reportedly, over 30% of DACA recipients are homeowners, and more than 900,000 U.S. citizens live in a household with a DACA recipient, recipients are raising an estimated 300,000 U.S.-citizen children.

As far as employment, 10s of thousands work as nurses, health aides, tech staff in hospitals and care centers. Thousands are bilingual K-12 teachers & educators. They're also represented in agricultural, grocery supply chain, and regional construction workforces.

OTOH, how accurate are TPS stats for the DACA program? Lousy, I would think. And if DACA work permits were revoked... 😬. Seems like solid planning by O & Joe and The American Center for Progress.

Could be a neat package to thwart the Trump administration's deportation efforts, etc. as it seems to fit well into current, highly controversial ICE issues and the underhanded methods of prior Democratic administrations.

150 SMOD, if you are around, read your comment on Suncor v. City of Boulder and then went to read the amicus brief at issue.

And the US DoJ does not say in its amicus what you fear. Standard preemption starting on page 14-19 of the brief--first that the tail does not wag the dog--states cannot regulate absent specific allowable areas by Congress, beyond its borders under the Constitution, and the furthermore is that the Clean Air Act precludes any state or locality from regulating because it preempts for the federal government the powers under the interstate commerce clause for air pollutants.

Preclusion does not mean that carbon dioxide is a pollutant (as per the withdrawal of the finding) but rather that states or localities cannot add to the list of air pollutants nor regulate them as those are inherently matters that cross state boundaries.

168 Wait is breasts considered a fetish?

A fetish tends to focus on a body part or an accessory to the exclusion of entire-body sexuality. Hence, breasts / bras, feet / shoes, legs / stockings.

Oddly, women generally do not tend to have fetishes. They may admire a body part, but it is usually in the context of sex. While you would have no trouble finding a man who is turned on by womens' stockings*, finding a woman who is turned on by mens' feet would be quite a task.

Though these are not scenes from everyday life, no doubt Jerry made good money from such fine works of art featuring very young 'women.'

This painting somehow reminds me of Thumbelina from the Hans Christian Andersen classic fairy tale. Big foliage and rock, small people in comparison.

I'd pass hanging, not at all over boob viewing distress but rather the willies I get considering the possible age of the models and monetary profits gleamed.

Jer could do much better as an artist.

210 I was watching a leftwing feminist try to explain the rise of the Proto Indo Europeans and how shortly after they invented horses we see their cultural items and male DNA showing up across massive areas.

The standard interpretation is that with the domestication of horses they conquered neighboring tribes, took the women, and killed the men.

The feminist interpretation? Well, maybe the women in the neighboring tribes just found horsemen really attractive and decided to mate with them instead of their loser farmer male peers.

These always invite someone posting per capita numbers and the left going REEEEE

So for example heritage Americans commit 2/3s of the violent crime in America. Ok. But if there are 330M heritage Americans and the left's claimed 10M illegals what do those per capita numbers look like? Even if you take a more realistic number of illegals like 40M that means they are committing crimes at a rate way higher then heritage Americans do.

I frankly don't perceive a future role for the House of Windsor. They should probably quit wasting money on it and just roll it up, or perhaps have the Kings convert and retain their positions as some kind of powerless "Chief Imam" who puts a white face on British sharia.

Pull all government funding. Remove any and all formal ties between the crown and government. Let them keep their properties as tourist attractions and make their money that way (it's apparently substantial) while the government taxes it at 90%.

Then kill Parliament and replace it with a constitutional republic with limited, proscribed powers.

And a pony.

Pierre Omidyar (Ebay) was funding Bulwark and Kristol from his loose pocket change. Omidyar has French and Iranian ancestry so that might be a clue as to his sensibilities.

French holds simultaneous positions in at least three organizations: Redeeming Babel (Curtis Chang's outfit that runs The After Party curriculum), the Trinity Forum (where he's a senior fellow), and the Kettering Foundation (senior fellow as of 2026). The first two sit inside a $33 million ecosystem called New Pluralists, a collaborative fund operated through Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors.

It is a dying Democrat talking point--the grifter GOP class using it got defeated or resigned--Massie, Mace, and MTG. The talking point is dying because almost every single predator named were Dems.

Luttnick was the main GOP type named (Dershowitz was a Dem at the time now GOP) and Luttnick visited Epstein Island with his family apparently including kiddies for a couple of hours. Not exactly the grist that the Dems could use effectively.

Correct.

ICE will just straight up murder you if they decide to, and the administration will cover them.

Anyone who even imagines ICE will target them from illegal immigrants to legal immigrants stewing in leftist agitprop to AWFLs who are afraid of being deported because their families only came here 300 years ago should all just remove themselves from American soil for their own safety.

America is a fascist, dictatorial, totalitarian shithole where brown people are killed for sport by "legal" authorities who then dine on their corpses.

338 @ 306 I'm sure C19 exacerbated the atrophied socialization of these kids. But it's never even been a question to me what the core issue is.

They grew up with smartphones from early childhood. They interact through screens now, not through personal human contact. It's not a mode of communication they ever developed, and it shows plainly on their faces. It's a problem for them. Wrong place, wrong time. Within a few more decades, most people will be borged-up bugmen Neuralinking each other from their dreary Meta pods, and the dead-eyed inability to follow any social cues will be completely normal. But for now, large tracts of the population haven't integrated with the digital media corporations yet, so it's difficult for the bugmen to operate in society.

I said at the time they were using their "bad boys" to help take back masculinity while denigrating it at the same time.

Most people probably bristled at the idea but psychology doesn't work on a level that makes sense most of the time. And as "toxic" as Swalwell and Platner actually are, these viral stories help push the masculine bad boy energy back to the Democrats who were sorely missing it after Trump brutalized them for 10 years. And especially in 2024 upon getting shot and appearing as tough as any sonofabitch could.

Anyway there are other things I am correct about, and they will all come out in the wash.

The Morning Report — 7/ 15 /26

LIPICE.jpg


Good morning kids.

That this has become a cause cé·lèbre among all the usual suspects let alone the incident itself are both barometers of how our nation is on the verge of coming apart at the seams.

A person was fatally shot in Biddeford, Maine, during an encounter with a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer. Witnesses report that the individual who was shot appeared to be attempting to run over the ICE officer before the officer discharged his weapon. . . The shooting in Maine follows another deadly shooting involving ICE in Houston, Texas, last week. Mexican national Lorenzo Salgado Araujo is also accused of having “rammed an ICE law enforcement vehicle, refused to follow multiple verbal commands, and weaponized his vehicle in an attempt to run over an ICE law enforcement officer,” although this is disputed by passengers presented in the vehicle at the time. Mexico is attempting to sue the U.S. over the incident. 

Kamala Harris condemned the ICE agents involved in the fatal shooting of a Colombian national who allegedly tried to run them over in Maine.


William Kristol, the NeverTrump icon and supporter of President George Bush, wants to destroy the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency that protects Americans from nation-changing, wage-slashing mass migration.
“Abolish ICE. Now,” Kristol posted on Monday... Kristol’s support for replacement migration is deeply unpopular among GOP-aligned and swing-voting Americans, largely because of the economic damage. The result is that Kristol and his former-GOP allies at The Bulwark are increasingly aligning themselves with pro-migration Democrats.

Yeah, totally shocking that Chlamydia Harris and Kristol meth are blasting away at ICE. But, Markwayne Mullin? The head of the DHS who in that position is running ICE for and at the behest of the man who put him there, President Trump?

In response, Mullin ordered that all ICE officers in the country stop pulling over vehicles in order to do their jobs. The method of pulling over vehicles is one of the most effective and preferred tools for ICE officers, as at-home arrests increase the possibility of danger with access to weapons, according to the Daily Wire, which first reported the directive. At-home arrests also require a judicial warrant, whereas traffic stops do not.

In other words, Mullin’s caving means more ICE agents will be put at risk while fewer deportations will be possible.

Foreign invading criminals are using lethal force to avoid apprehension and deportation and one of our lead law enforcement officers is ordering his front line agents to essentially stand down and become targets. What Mullin should be doing is standing behind his troops and publicly urging them to do their duty and announce that the use of lethal force to defend one's life in the line o duty will always be our policy.

Better put some ICE on those fat putrid lips!

It's insanity like this that encourages not only the illegals to invade and remain here but the criminals who use this issue among every other issue under the sun to use violence and intimidation to overthrow America as founded.

. . . revolutionary movements often convince themselves that one spectacular act of bloodshed will awaken the public and spark sweeping political transformation. History shows otherwise, but the fantasy persists because every generation imagines it will succeed where the last one failed.

One of the interview’s most compelling moments came during a discussion of what Rothman calls the “permission structure” surrounding violence. Contrary to popular belief, widespread support isn’t necessary.

If only a small percentage of the population embraces political violence while everyone else hesitates to condemn it, whether out of fear, tribal loyalty, or ideological convenience, the normalization process begins. Silence becomes accommodation. Accommodation becomes acceptance. Acceptance becomes encouragement.

Sadly it's more than a small percentage and it and the others who may not hurl a molotov cocktail but who cheer on those who do make up a frighteningly large percentage of the populace, and all of them are Democrat/Leftists.

As I hinted at in previous posts, one cannot debate or otherwise reason with cancer. It must be eradicated, mercilessly, and excised from the body politic root and branch. How we are to do that in a manner that is in keeping with our values, heritage and abhorrence of violence is a big question mark. It is my fervent hope and prayer that the good Lord opens their eyes, hearts and minds to the evil they either perpetrate or otherwise support and make them repent and turn away and back towards a path of righteousness and decency. Before it's too late, for all of us.

When I was a kid in the early Sixties there, only the first six or seven blocks of Bourbon were Party World. Starting in the block where I lived and running another six or so to its end, Bourbon was residential with service businesses like a hardware store, a barber shop, laundromat, an upholstery shop, a grocery store, etc.

That downriver half of Bourbon is still residential, but those service businesses, I think, are all gone.

18 It isn't necessarily a cave to cut back on vehicle stops as a means of detaining illegals. If it's becoming more difficult to do it that way than it's worth, then... don't do it that way. Adapt, adjust, learn, improvise. I doubt Mullins's position is that they can all just stay. Just that the once low hanging fruit of pulling them over in their unregistered, uninsured cars is exposing his agents to more risk than it used to.

That sounds great... to us. Maybe to 20% of the country. But a large swath of people are easily swayed by emotional argument, something the Democrats have been using for decades, and there's the midterms coming up.

Not everything can be done at 100% all the time.

Also, bear in mind that any powers and aggressive stance that we insist federal law enforcement be given, and use vigorously, can, and will, be used against us once the Democrats regain power.

Most of those politicians are paid off by the cartels. If the US lets the trade agreement lapse, legitimate trade gets higher tariffs and less access. It could also be an incentive for the US to go after the banks that handle all of the cartels money laundering.

42 Any time, ANY time, the Constitution is supported and its attackers are damaged is a reason for celebration.

The invasion of the US and the support of it by domestic enemies is only one facet of the present war. A war the left is committed to winning by multiple aggressive and passive methods.

I've brought the subject up here and elsewhere I am often accused of being a Fed plant, and given the recent history of khaki-sunglasses-Jan 6-not-so-secret-police I get how that happens.

So what is the defense? The senate is irretrievably corrupt, the money machine in politics torpedoes effective individual speech, the days of Mister Smith going to Washington were fantasy even when that movie was made, and the America many of us grew up in is long behind us with no path for returning.

What are we to do, other than complain, I mean? The enemies are partly easily identified, and partly well-concealed. Speaking out? Does that have an effect, or are the iPhones hypnotized the masses so well everyone is deaf?

Go ahead and call me a Fed plant if you like, but invaders were once repelled by shot and shell. As far as I can tell the First Barbary War has not ended but has expanded.

I'm sure they are.

However that does nothing to quell the radicalized individuals who act on their own accord. And there are many of them that will act when there's no protest, paid or not.

49 New York City has a Muslim mayor from Uganda who has been a naturalized U.S. citizen for only eight years. Minneapolis has a Muslim member of Congress from Somalia who became a naturalized U.S. citizen at the age of seventeen. Roughly 4% of Congress are foreign-born naturalized citizens, while 15% of Congress have at least one immigrant parent. A third of the judges occupying prestigious and powerful positions on the D.C. District Courts were born in foreign nations.

84 Good morning, beloved Horde!

Perhaps I'm a bit of a Pollyanna, but I have a different interpretation of Mullin's order regarding ICE agents. I thought I read that the pause in pull overs was temporary, pending training in adjusted strategies. It makes sense to me that if their current traffic stop protocol allows the opportunity for attempted ramming, they would adjust their protocol to reduce the opportunities for ramming. Example: suppose officers alter their approach to a vehicle so that they reduce the time spent in its potential path.

In this case, Mullin is NOT caving.

The various wars between the Christians and Muslims for hundreds of years were just another side show in the wars between Everyone and Everyone. They were a bit more flashy about it, and had to walk farther to get there. But the second everyone came back from fighting the Infidels, they went straight back to fighting Larry from across the Danube, or Abu Ben-Booby from the next wadi over.

Some rice dicked little spaz doesn't get to crown himself with the title of Most Violent just because he wants to feel special.

The bright side, if there is one, a LOT more Christians will wake up ready to take care of business than if everyone remained in their slumber. As Reagan said - if you want peace, you can have peace right now. Surrender.

One of the kids was black and was last seen with a girl.
It's a tragic story. Most likely he was drunk, tried to swim, and drowned.

But now the racists are claiming these long-time friends murdered him and are covering it up.
So not only do those kids have the loss of their friend, they are now all accused of being racist.*
And won't be allowed at his funeral.

Their accusation is actually their confession:
They think it's plausible because they know, if they could, they would murder a white.

What, specifically, is the "correct" way to stop a vehicle with an illegal who's hell bent on avoiding capture?

More to the point; when said illegal is being helped by interference from rabid Americans, radicalized to use violence against ICE.

spoiler: there's no correct way. so let's just quit altogether.

I think you’ve hit on it - the entire polling biz is built on the willingness to seize onto a false reality, rather than live with the uncertainty of life.

There is no more comprehensive display of polls uselessness than the Paxton/Cornyn runoff race. Every poll done said it was either tied, or that Paxton had a slight lead.
Paxton won with a 2-1 margin, one of the biggest blowouts in years. Not a single poll saw that coming - not a single poll was within 20 points of the actual result.

Polling in general has become complete garbage. Polling in Texas is double plus sized garbage.

Also, ICE vehicles can follow cars until the cars come to a stop still.

I said it yesterday that the move was mostly PR, and it's increasingly looking like it.

But don't believe me, believe the people who said that immigration enforcement had already come to a complete halt months ago because of the killings of Goode and Pretti caused the administration to be afraid for the midterms. According to these people, ICE stopping all vehicle stops doesn't mean anything anyway because all deportations are done already.

Jashanpreet Singh, 21, an Indian migrant who entered the US under the Biden administration, smashed into seven other vehicles on the 10 Freeway in Ontario in October 2025. Singh pleaded guilty to three counts of felony vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence for the crime last week.

365 First Minister John Swinney has apologised to a Dundee girl who brandished weapons at a Bulgarian man who was later convicted of assaulting her Ilia Belov, 22, was convicted last week of grabbing and pushing the girl and uttering sexual remarks to the girl and her friends last year. Swinney said he would apologise to the girl, as he said his comments at the time of the incident were based on the information he had on the case at the time. Police Scotland have now admitted that their initial statement "did not fully reflect the situation."

It's playing in to the Fake Words game of the ontoclasts. "Activism" is a good thing. It's dynamic. It's productive. It's useful. Everyone wants to be an Activist.

The problem is not that they judges are activists. It's that they're fucking corrupted.

Is there any reasonable prospect of a cease fire on the part of Democrats? I don’t think so.

I have never understood this.
If the flag of the country in which you live (and in most cases, were born) instills such fear, then move! You are a lawyer, Sunny, and have big tv money. Go!

But really, this is a silly pose, a way to be victim-adjacent or somesuch: "America's been so bad to so many people that just seeing the smallest demonstration of pride in it makes me scaaaaaaaared!!"

Grow up, Sunny.

443 In February, Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) scrapped the Obama-era endangerment finding, the legal foundation for the whole federal climate regime — the basis for a sprawling federal campaign that Congress never clearly approved. That 2009 finding gave Washington, D.C. the excuse to regulate greenhouse gases and use the Clean Air Act as a blunt instrument against cars, trucks, power plants, and the energy economy itself.

Remove that finding, and the whole regulatory scheme starts to fall apart, leaving the EPA’s climate authority without a real legal footing.

Yet the Justice Department’s position in Suncor Energy v. Boulder County is a mess. While the Trump EPA is trying to unwind the federal climate regime, the DOJ appears to be leaving the door open to the same broad Clean Air Act theory that made the regime possible in the first place. Climate activists will happily exploit that contradiction.

Shirefolk are ruddy, dark, earthy people. They're not "very white" in any description of them, unless you're such a racist that the phrase Very White simply means "Having a functioning society" to you.

Did ya hear the word salad - losing track with the frequency - from Harris the other day? Anyway, everyone knows her staff put the condemnation of ICE on X, on July 14th, likely after getting just the right nuances from the heavy hitters such as UK Guardian (July 9, July 14) or AP News (July 10), and also Congressman (D-TX) Castro's outrageous press release of July 14.

👉Congressman Castro on ICE: “They've Engaged in Cold-Blooded Murder”
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Congressman Joaquin Castro (TX-20) joined the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) to speak out against ICE’s brutality and the killings of 52-year-old Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston, Texas, and of 26-year-old Joan Sebastian Guerrero in Biddeford, Maine.

As to DHS/Markwayne Mullin

Media outlets are reporting that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has ordered a major retreat on its aggressive mass deportation tactics following intense political backlash and two fatal immigration shootings in a six-day span.

A quiet directive issued by the Trump administration represents a massive, sudden policy reversal after an initial July blitz that saw over 10,000 migrant arrests.

449 AI Overview - Reportedly July 2026 was explicitly on track to be ICE's biggest month of deportations under the Trump administration before the sudden policy halt.

Internal data leaked to The New York Times and AP News revealed that ICE kicked off its mid-summer offensive by arresting 10,000 people in a single five-day sprint at the very turn of the month. ICE also booked more detentions than it did during entire months under previous stretches of the Biden administration.

According to reporting from Vox, this record pace was driven by a quiet change in operational strategy. After facing severe public pushback from high-profile city sweeps earlier in the year, ICE leadership ordered agents to use quieter, individual lightning tactics.

This record-shattering trajectory is precisely why the subsequent operational pause—forced by the fatal shootings in Texas and Maine—has been viewed as such a massive, sudden disruption to the administration's core agenda.

Recent economic studies from the National Bureau of Economic Research and the Brookings Institution have shown that intense ICE sweeps trigger a massive "chilling effect" on businesses. For every single undocumented

W characterized modern GOP anti-immigration rhetoric as nativist. And do not forget Hispanic immigrants married directly into their inner, family circle.

(Aside: Also see Nan Pelosi's family circle, and heaven knows how many others in Congress. Wasn't Stalwell's first wife from Central or S. America?)

NPR/WHYY, National, July 15
Democrats' witness opposing Blanche's confirmation is more than an Epstein survivor

Senator Dick Durbin
1d
I’m announcing today that Liz Oyer and Dani Bensky will be the Democratic witnesses in opposition to Todd Blanche’s attorney general nomination.
Liz Oyer served as the Justice Department’s nonpolitical pardon attorney. She was fired by Blanche for refusing to rubberstamp gun ownership rights to Mel Gibson, a convicted domestic violence abuser and friend of Donald Trump.
Dani Bensky is a brave survivor of Jeffrey Epstein’s horrific crimes. Her name has been included in multiple batches of released Epstein Files, due to Todd Blanche’s failures. She’s attempted multiple times to redact her information without success.
They will offer compelling testimony about the dangers of Todd Blanche weaponizing the Justice Department in service of Donald Trump, rather than the American people.

Top Story



Tech News

  • With memory being so wildly expensive these days, you might be wondering which memory you should buy.

    And the answer is, in most cases, cheap memory. Or the cheapest you can find from a reliable retailer.

    Intel has its CUDIMMs and AMD has its ULL memory. They are not worth buying.

    For everyday tasks they make no difference, and for gaming the money is far better spent on a AMD Ryzen X3D CPU, or if you have an Intel system, on wishing you had an AMD system. The expanded cache on AMD's X3D CPUs makes memory speed largely irrelevant for most users, even gamers intent on wringing every last drop of performance out of their systems.

    Intel will be shipping its own X3D equivalent later this year with its Nova Lake processors, which include up to 288MB of cache, though most users will do fine with half that much.


  • Bonsai 27B is the Qwen 27B model squooshed into a bit and a bit. (PrismML)

    Native Qwen 27B uses 16-bit floating point, so it needs 54GB of VRAM to run unrestricted. And 54GB of VRAM is quite expensive in the current market.

    What the Bonsai process does is to prune it down to ternary or binary with scaling factors per group. In ternary form it fits in 5.9GB of VRAM, while retaining more than 90% of the capabilities of the full model.

16 Did my doctor appt. yesterday; no worries, but I didn't get a chance to crash in the afternoon, so I headed off to Pillow-Land early. And then woke up earlier than I planned. Feeling pretty good though, and I need to go work out in a bit.

This afternoon I have a video tour of another house. It looks great, but it's on the other side of the river from Terre Haute. Which means crossing by means of only two bridges to get to a lot of amenities. The town only has about 2200 residents. I know I said I wanted to live in a smaller community, but --! If you live in such a small place, say within five or ten miles of a larger town to which you have to travel for car repairs, medical, and the like, I'd like to hear your reactions.

Not every kitten does it. None of the Siberians have, possibly because they didn't leave their mothers early to be adopted -- the breeder lady I've had three kittens from doesn't let them go out until they are five months old. On the other hand, big Arizona, the red tabby I adopted in '83 from the SPCA, never did it either, and he was only about six weeks old when I took him home. Maybe it depends to a degree on the personality of the kitten.

I will ask.

My vision was to live in a small city, perhaps 25-50K residents, small enough to get around easily but with various amenities like places to get my car worked on, a hospital or two, plumbers and electricians, etc. if smaller, then a short drive from a bigger town. This town is only about three or four miles west, but involves using one of two river bridges. And there is the possibility of floods from the river, though the house I'm looking at is not in a flood plain.

32 Ordered 3 x 12V 5A power supplies with those little barrel connectors for a few devices I have here. Those finally got here and ... they're the wrong barrel connector. I'll keep 'em on the shelf in their boxes as the 5.5x2.1 size barrel connector is pretty standard and those will fit something else.

The devices I'm trying to power are stand-alone mini-PC's with lots of network connectors that I purchased from Ali Express back in 2024 (well before the memory debacle we're facing today.) They're going to be the new firewalls at my place and my mother's, running pfSense 2.7.2.

Anyhow, I've ordered three more, with slightly larger barrel connectors, (5.5x2.5) and I'm hoping I get the correct ones this time. The standardization on these things reminds me of that infamous XKCD comic:

https://xkcd.com/927/

Oh, and regarding the new firewalls: Mom has one of those newfangled "smart tv" things, which is great for her and she's really enjoying the stuff she can get on a couple of streaming services.

I want to segment her TV onto its own little VLAN so it can't even try to connect to her computer or see it on the network.

33 Wolfus, I live in an Oregon town of about 2-3 times that size of what you're looking at, but about 25-30 minutes out from hospital/tradesmen type amenities. That is close enough for me, and really cuts down on the oozing spread of metro social dysfunction (although not eliminated). The bridges could have a similar filtering effect, without being as far away; even better if the TH bus lines stop at the river, but that's probably too much to hope for.

yesterday . It was lovely . Some exercisers there ( joggers ) are so intent they don't even acknowledge if you say " Good morning" or maybe they are listening to music, but I didn't see any ear devices. We may not be training for the Olympics, but we did turn a bit off the beaten path to look at the lake and so saw a grey as well as a white heron striding in the water looking for fish. On our way back we saw a grey heron in a tree . It looked like it was cleaning itself and so had little pieces of branches or leaves it was pulling off . I think it's too late in the year for making a nest.

We also saw a lot of flowers by the water ( a lovely pink color ) as well as some leaves that had turned bright red on the ground . So nice to be out before it gets really warm.

Good points. A fifteen-minute drive to a Walmart once or twice a week wouldn't kill me -- I do more than that now -- or thirty to a good mechanic, which I also do now.

51 @41/Stateless: I checked out the site linked under your name, nothing really there yet but as you said, you're working on that.

"It's hell making a living in Canada....."

Ain't that the truth. It absolutely infuriates me knowing that they're taking so much from me in taxes on income, purchases, fees, property, hidden things like carbon charges for energy, and of course at the end of your life, they'll try to claw as much of your estate back from you and your heirs as they can, and that's only going to get worse.

And then I watch them spend not only frivolously on themselves, but they throw a metric shitton of money at foreign governments as gifts and grants, while continuing to deficit-spend us into poverty.

I don't understand why this hasn't completely imploded yet. It really should have.

One of the interesting quirks about Portland, which I have usually lived near but rarely in, is the way that the East Side (east of 82nd Ave) is really the unwanted stepchild. IIRC, people loved the unincorporated land for being cheaper, but building it out without proper utility planning led to septic pollution, so a judge ultimately forced a shotgun wedding and made Portland take responsibility. But the City made the people on the side streets pay for their own paving if they wanted it, so many on that side of town are still gravel to this day.

My image of NYC was formed by TV in the '60s, and movies as well like Sunday in New York and The Odd Couple. The '70s there looked and sounded pretty bad. When I visited in '98, I found the same as you, pretty nice if you stayed in certain areas. I had no interest in fringe places; I stuck with the Upper West Side, midtown, Fifth Avenue, etc. It wasn't what I'd imagined from reading Rex Stout and watching/reading U.N.C.L.E., but it looked pretty good.

When I was a kid in the early Sixties there, only the first six or seven blocks of Bourbon were Party World. Starting in the block where I lived and running another six or so to its end, Bourbon was residential with service businesses like a hardware store, a barber shop, laundromat, an upholstery shop, a grocery store, etc.

That downriver half of Bourbon is still residential, but those service businesses, I think, are all gone.
