Chuck Grassley
@ChuckGrassley 4h I received records frm DOJ confirming Jack Smith's investigative team reviewed the contents of text msgs sent by 44 MEMBERS OF CONGRESS Im 1 of the 44
Im alerting my colleagues who were impacted and will release the records w Sen Johnson so American ppl can see the evidence
The House will vote to make Daylight Savings Time permanent. No more changing clocks every six months like a mental patient.
Ana Paulina Luna has been holding up all legislation until the traitor Thune forces the SAVE Act through. Mike Johnson has offered Luna attaching as the SAVE Act is attached to a bill funding the State Department. Mitch McConnell's Rent-Boy has already said he'll strip it out.
The U.S. House will vote this week on a bill making daylight savings time permanent, despite warnings from medical, education and safety organizations. The Sunshine Protection Act of 2025, which would end the nearly nationwide biannual clock changing and make daylight savings time permanent year-round, advanced out of committee Monday afternoon. States that use standard time year-round -- currently only Arizona and Hawaii -- before the law goes into effect wouldn't have to change.
Yeah he doesn't care. The entire purpose of the GOPe is to betray and restrain conservative voters. They're proud to do it. Mamdani ran on a platform of bringing rents down. Despite thousands of people fleeing the shithole city of NYC, rents just hit their highest levels in history.
Johnson has said he'll facilitate a process that would attach the SAVE American Act to a bill to fund the State Department. Luna and other Republicans believe the maneuver will make it hard for the Senate to oppose the funding packages. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., said she'll support a procedural rule that would allow the House to consider a bill to fund the State Department and a measure to make daylight savings time permanent. "We will try the MIRV process on the condition that Speaker Johnson attaches the SAVE America Act to all the appropriation bills and all must-pass bills here in the House and ensures it is sent to the Senate as one bill," Luna said on X. The vote to reopen the House floor on Tuesday would end a power struggle between Luna and Speaker Mike Johnson over the election security bill, the SAVE America Act, Politico reported. Johnson has said he'll facilitate a process that would attach the SAVE American Act to a bill to fund the State Department. Luna and other Republicans believe the maneuver will make it hard for the Senate to oppose the funding packages. Senate Majority Leader John Thune has said he won't go for the plan, and Luna's statement put pressure on the South Dakota Republican to reconsider. "If John Thune strips it out in the Senate that will be on him and the entire country should be watching what he does. If he wants to actively work against Voter I.D. & the SAVE America Act he must face the consequences of his actions. His State party should censure him and/or he should be primaried if he wants to betray his constituents in this manner. That is the nature of politics," Lunsa said.
Under the leadership of race-communist Mayor Zohran Mamdani, rent in Manhattan has risen to an all-time high of $5,295 a month, representing a nearly 10 percent increase year-over-year. ... With the cost of living booming and Mamdani backing a "tax the rich" agenda to pay for his hyped-up socialist policies, New York City seems to be dying. A study from the New York Post showed that the city lost nearly $11 billion in tax revenue after a mass exodus of millionaires. Meanwhile, 40 percent of New York City's units are occupied by foreign born tenants, many of whom filled vacancies left after caravans fled the city during the COVID pandemic.Mamdani and his communists are doing such a great job they've voted themselves all a massive pay raise.
NYC Council members want to give themselves 18.2% pay hike -- and set automatic increases every year after
Pay yourself first -- over and over again! Shameless city lawmakers are pushing to give themselves eye-watering 18.2% raises -- in a scheme that will also give them automatic pay hikes of at least 2% every year in the future. City Council Member Nantasha Williams (D-27) introduced a bill that would inflate her and her colleagues' salaries from $148,500 to $175,500 backdated to January, while also ballooning pay for the mayor, the City Council speaker and other elected positions. The bill comes days after the lawmakers signed off on a record-breaking $126 billion city budget and includes salaries even higher than a 16% raise the council tried to sneak by in a similar bank-account boosting measure at the end of their session last year. And the bill also ensures taxpayers will be on the hook to pay elected officials more every year -- with no requirement for public debate or a City Council vote.
Under the proposed law, if the council doesn't vote to hike salaries for four years, raises kick in anyway, at either 2% per year or 8.25% overall -- whichever is less. ... The mayor's salary would also get boosted from $258,750 to $305,800 and Council Speaker Julie Menin's would rise from $164,500 to $194,000 -- though both leaders have said they wouldn't take the pay bumps. Mamdani hasn't taken a stance on whether he was in favor of the hikes and said he'd leave it for the City Council to debate.

Fuck you.
The author of an acclaimed book about slavery is crying racism after her writing came under scrutiny by scholars for questionable assertions and sloppy sourcing. Kerri Greenidge's 2022 book "The Grimkes," which tells the story of a prominent South Carolina slaveholder family who later played a role in the abolitionist movement, was lauded by critics and won the American Historical Association's Joan Kelly Memorial Prize. But skepticism grew as her prose came under the microscope by historians and scholars, including Myra Glenn, an author and retired American history professor at Elmira College. In a 2024 examination of "The Grimkes," Glenn called it "deeply flawed," and called out that Greenidge "all too often lacks the evidence to substantiate many of her major claims." She added that "her work is also riddled with factual errors and repeatedly omits needed endnotes." Presented with these and other disputed findings discovered through Glenn's analysis by the New York Times, Greenidge immediately cast herself as the victim, and accused her growing roster of critics of racism. "I am heartbroken that a field I have given my life to can treat me this way," she told the outlet. "The attack on Black women academics is real."

The City of Sacramento will send crews across the city to track and check that residents are sorting their trash properly.

We tried permanent DST in the early '70s, under Nixon IIRC. It lasted one winter, and then was repealed.
I predict the same thing will happen again. When it gets around the winter solstice in the western edges of the higher latitude time zones where it's pretty far west to begin with relative to true local mean time, sunrise can push past 9AM. That didn't fly at all.

Michigan upper peninsula is pretty bad, and even Indiana pushes Eastern Time pretty far west.
Go to time.gov to see the boundaries.
Originally, time zones were to be exactly 15 degrees wide, centered on the meridian. That way clock time would be no worse than +/- 30 minutes different from local mean time. But, the boundaries get political/commerce oriented, and we have what we have.

Terrorism Works: DHS Instructs ICE to Stop Conducting Traffic Stops After Illegal Alien Attempted to Ram His Car Into ICE Agents and Was Justifiably Shot and Killed
This is terrorism, and the Democrat Party supports it.
A Biddeford, Maine, resident is reportedly dead after he weaponized his car against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent(s), causing at least one to shoot in self-defense. Maine House Speaker Ryan Fecteau (D-132nd District) released a statement on Monday, confirming the bare facts of the incident, but he and the press are jumping to the conclusion that the dead activist is the victim. The reality is that when a person attempts to run over an officer with his car, he is using the car as a deadly weapon, meriting a potentially deadly response. Furthermore, if that is what happened, the activist died a felon because it is explicitly against federal law to attempt to injure or interfere with ICE agents. ... The Post Millennial reported that an eyewitness described seeing a person "trying to hit the ICE officer" with a car, causing the officer to shoot. Since a car being used to run over someone is very certainly a deadly weapon, the facts in the case would seem to be fairly straightforward. There is no information as of yet on any details about the identity of the dead ICE-hater. ... As of the start of this year, attacks on ICE had gone up by 1,347%, while death threats against ICE had increased by an almost unimaginable 8,000%. Given the endless violence against ICE, it is actually remarkable that more federal officers and activists have not died. And here's something the mainstream media and main Democrats will not tell you: 18 U.S. Code 111 penalizes anyone who "forcibly assaults, resists, opposes, impedes, intimidates, or interferes with any person designated in section 1114 of this title while engaged in or on account of the performance of official duties." In other words, the Biddeford wacko was not only doing something obviously dangerous when he or she tried to run over the ICE agents, but this action was also very clearly in violation of federal law.But the terrorism of the left is always indulged, because the terrorists are part of the same leftwing establishment that controls our institutions. ICE will stop making traffic stops except for the most heinous illegal alien criminals, at least as long as it takes to retrain them. Retrain them how? Are they supposed to allow themselves to be attacked by leftwing terrorists and illegal alien criminals?
Bill MeluginFirst scooped by @JennieSTaer
@BillMelugin_ BREAKING: Per multiple federal sources to @FoxNews, ICE has been instructed to immediately cease most vehicle stops during immigration enforcement operations nationwide, except for operations targeting the most egregious criminal aliens. This comes after two people were killed by ICE in shootings in TX and ME in the last week in incidents that began as vehicle stops. DHS alleges one of those incidents was a ramming attempt. I'm told this will be temporary until ICE officers receive new training on vehicle stops. The policy change will have significant impacts as many of ICE's arrests begin as vehicle stops when they find and follow a target, as we've witnessed on multiple embeds. More to come as we get it.

This is just me spitballing here but I suspect they are going to be told to let them go if they try to run away and only use deadly force if an ice agent has actually been injured or killed. Either way the left has won this battle.

Trump doesn't have a huge tolerance for deaths.
He's shown that before.
He's a crappy fascist.
Seems like he's almost trying to be not nihilistic enough for actual fascism.

Hell, walk around in any city (or even rural areas) in the county and you'll see thousands of these parasites shambling around. ICE could just send in the Scoops from Soylent Green.
Unless ICE is somehow identifying illegals while they are driving their cars this seems like a solution in search of a problem.

Stopping cars driven by people who can't tell the difference between murdering someone and protesting is dangerous. I would prefer a situation where the ROE is to put a shotgun slug through the engine block at the first failure to comply, but I doubt that is the training ICE will get.

In speaking with numerous ICE sources today, most are expressing frustration that this will cause their arrest numbers to fall off a cliff while in effect. A large majority of their arrests involve vehicle stops. They will now largely have to rely on court arrests, detainer transfers, USCIS interviews, or “consensual encounters”/roving patrols on foot to make arrests in bigger numbers.
ICE prefers to target people in their vehicles instead of their homes because homes require a judicial warrant to enter and vehicles are considered safer (someone can run into a home and grab a weapon etc) and targets can be followed to public areas where warrants aren’t required.
In all the ICE embeds I’ve done over the years, I would say 90% + of the targets were arrested in vehicle stops, though, they were egregious aliens (murderers, rapists etc), and those vehicle stops are still allowed to continue for now. This will have a bigger impact on targets in the U.S. illegally who have committed no other crimes.

Deportation flights are roughly twice the previous record set under Noem (which were themselves records higher than any previous administration).
The immigration side of the political debate has been quiet recently because Mullin reduced the size of visual presence in areas, while increasing the number of raids at the same time.
And, this is all after Goode and Pretti's deaths ended all immigration enforcement in America completely and Trump just gave up on the issue because he was afraid of the political blowback.

1. Demand ICE be abolished (not rebranded)
2. Pledge to pass a national police law for all federal LEOs that requires identity tapes (name, ID), prohibits masks that conceal identity, requires always-on body cameras and outlaws qualified immunity
Best the Dems can do is only slightly increase the budget.
ICE orders officers to stop vehicle pursuits nationwide amid Houston and Maine shootings. That must be some damning body camera footage to have this response.
This isn’t justice for anyone, it’s a distraction. ICE has a bad habit of killing and maiming anyone they come across, and people need to be held accountable
They should only be allowed to carry non lethal weapons, idc about THEIR safety, I care about the random people they murder cause they are afraid of unarmed civilians.
Let’s hope for November big change. If we can't vote our way out of being murdered, the alternatives are worse.
The Mirror (US): ICE bosses blast Trump for pushing DHS to 'breaking point' after fatal shootings. The unrealistic expectations set by the White House are pushing ICE agents to their "breaking point."

Traffic stops are actually quite risky and potentially traumatic for the cop. He has no idea who is in the car. He has no idea what is in the car. Could be a little old lady on her way to church. Or it could be a gangbanger with a glock and 50 pounds of heroin.
And now almost everyone has tinted windows, so it's almost impossible to see in. Hell, I got tinted windows just so nobody can see me driving. But if I ever get pulled over, I will roll down the window so the cop can see me.

Law enforcement and the military do stuff like this frequently. There have been a couple high profile shootings, some questionable decisions may have been involved, so it's good to reiterate policy and procedures to protect the public AND protect the officers from lawsuits and possible prosecution. For example, in the Maine case, it's reported:
When ICE tried to stop a vehicle driven by someone coming from that address, the “vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon,” the department said.
That's not self defense, and shooting fleeing felons is a tricky legal call. My training would be telling ICE officers not to make statements on any shooting until they've consulted an attorney.

EXCLUSIVE: Democrat Texas candidate Bobby Pulido said molesting kids is “not necessarily rape,” after he brought a sex offender to a middle school, according to social media posts uncovered by the Daily Caller.
Pulido brought his longtime friend, convicted child sex offender Frankie Caballero, to perform at a benefit concert at a Texas middle school in 2016, according to an Axios report.
Unearthed posts on Twitter, now known as X, show Pulido explaining why he believed it was appropriate to bring Caballero to the benefit concert.
The posts were published in a series of tweets in August 2018, weeks after the event.
In one post, Pulido downplayed child molestation, writing, “Child molestation is abhorrent. But is not necessarily rape or murder, what you said. My point, and Geraldo’s point, is they have been unfairly demonized. It’s like if I said that whites shouldn’t be able to buy guns because most mass shooters are white.”

I know this has been asked before, but if the vehicle is fleeing and the officer is concerned for public safety presumably because the vehicle is speeding into a crowed, AND the officer is NOT in front of the vehicle -- could the officer shoot the tires? Or is this silly girl talk?

Arkansas famously slaps an extra felony on if you flee, and they have a law to make it free and easy for people to get dashcam footage from the state police. For a while they'd pull someone over, make sure the dashcam got a good look at the perp, and tell them to say hi to YouTube. A Hawaiian judge must've found out because I haven't seen that in a while.

They see that no one is tailing them, they slow down, do some maneuvers, and often end up driving to their criminal lair where, no-doubt, other deportation candidates may be lurking.

I don’t fault DHS for the shootings which will be investigated and resolved, most likely in their favor. A vehicle traveling towards an officer is lethal force. Period. That goes doubly if it is a known evasion tactic of the targets. But you want that to be a rare occurrence, mostly because that improves force protection.

The CBO predicted that cash for clunkers would alter the used car market out for 15 years and that was in 2008. Others think it has disrupted the used car market permanently by taking a huge chunk of used car inventory and literally destroying it. It's probably somewhere in the middle and we should see some sanity returning to the used car market in about 2030 or so.

People driving cars can and do travel a fair distance on rims. You see it quite frequently in real life car chases when tire spike strips are used to blow out tires. Quite enough to run over a law enforcement agent at high enough speed to kill or seriously injure them.
And shooting through the front of a tire is trying to shoot through the toughest part, risks richochet by firing at a low angle to who knows where, and is not guaranteed to stop a vehicle.
A lot of crap about firearms comes from Hollywood's distortions or outright make believe falseness. That in and of itself is not so bad, but idiots trying to make policy on that basis makes everything worse.

A few years ago Denver PD tagged a stolen vehicle, then dropped off. Crim drove around for about fifteen minutes then entered into a warehouse district.
Creeped around for a few minutes which gave SWAT teams ample time to circle in. The crim then finished the drive into one of the bays in the warehouse.
Within seconds SWAT converged and busted a major chop shop.

Elliot Page is an incredible actor. His portrayal of a pregnant girl in Juno was on point. It's robbery that he didn't get an award for such a huge stretch.
Ellen Page is a terrible actress. Her character 'Elliot' should really have Short Man Syndrome, with a chip on his shoulder the size of an aircraft carrier and anger management problems out the wazoo, from all the bullying he would've endured.
Elliot (née Ellen) Page is a damaged woman indulging a fetish, not even attempting a realistic portrayal of a male character. She's actually a decent actress, good enough to play pregnant without ever having been before; but acting isn't the point of what she's doing here, which is why she talks like a crazy woman instead of like a man.
I think the last one is true.

I'm going to call BS on the 500k miles. Probably one of the most consistently bullet proof engines is the AMC I6, later put in the Jeep XJs as the 4.0L It gets crappy gas mileage because they overbuilt the engine with 7 main bearings and other design gimmicks.
300k would be pretty common out of the engine if the body didn't rust away or otherwise get wrecked.
I don't know how they will pass CAFE and have a 500k drivetrain

The courts have been eroding the ability of law enforcement to do good work for decades now. Believe me, I’m no bootlicker. I have a lot of problems with the way some cop shops operate.
One thing I noticed, and I’m sure this was crucial, a good experienced Cop might not be able to definitely articulate “probable cause” other than “that fucker looks hinky”.
A sixth sense, developed out of years of experience. Let’s light this fucker up, and see what’s what. Oh, the SOB has some gal tied up in the trunk! Imagine that.
This is the kind of thing in extreme “no chase” policies engender. The crooks know they don’t have to comply with law enforcement. Because of fuckheads on the Court going back to Miranda.

A tire is a very small target and easy to miss, especially if the car is moving. A ricochet puts bystanders at risk. Even if you hit the tire, the vehicle is now less stable which can also put bystanders at risk. Yes, the driver is the responsible party, of course, but in terms of harm reduction to uninvolved parties this is a really bad idea, just as much as it's likely to be ineffective.

Making policy by edge cases is part of the Hollyweird problem on firearm policy (and other policies like mental health). Just because an edge case example does show something is technically possible not mean that it is very likely nor can be accomplished as Hollyweird shows it.
If I fire a 50 BMG at an auto tire, it is likely to shred it--but managing those would be a stone cold bitch for any ICE officer under field conditions. Same with penetrating an auto engine block.
The problem with most people today is they cannot apply probability theory worth a damn--overweighting rare examples and undervaluing more common risks.
And even there, it is a problem for people to be able to properly weight responses due to sunk costs, socially acceptable answers, and match the magnitude of a loss versus the probability of likelihood and the costs to mitigate it.
We live in a probabilistic world and yet people act as though life is an on/off switch.

The City of Sacramento will send crews across the city to track and check that residents are sorting their trash properly.
It's just a matter of time until they install Flock cameras inside your trash can.

That's what I was thinking as well. Immobilize the vehicle at the stop. Work on drills where as the lead cop approaches, another moves in and locks a rear wheel.

Very good post, Whig, but in fairness to polynikes, he was talking about a rare movie (Quigley Down Under) that probably doesn't deserve our ire. This is not just because it stars Tom Sellak, but the movie actually understands firearms and goes to go great lengths to show that Quigley is a very rare marksman. It isn't the same as Hollyweird cop flicks made by and starring gun-grabbers where guns are used with cavalier disregard for surroundings and abnormal results are achieved as a matter of course.

"Elliot" Page, Who Plays a Great Greek Warrior in Christopher Nolan's Odyssey: Gender Is Just a "Quaint Myth"
If you see this movie, you love Elliot Page.
She's a transgender Rachel Zegler. She's taking down a movie because she just can't shut her enormous mouth.It turns out the 5'1" woman is not playing mighty Achilles, but another great warrior, "Sinon," I think they said, who was called "the greatest soldier" in the Greek army. Chris Gore and Alan Ng saw the movie. They split in their reviews: Gore says it's disappointing and boring but "not a disaster," while Ng says it is a disaster, and so boring it's hard to get through. They do say that the Stunt Casting isn't too much of a factor because those are small roles with little screen time. I mean, yes, we knew that Helen of Troy would just be in the beginning, but still this absurd casting stops any audience member from enjoying what should be the point of making a historical, or mythic, epic: feeling that this is something like what it must have really looked like.
Transgender actor and The Odyssey star Elliot Page came out against traditional gender roles, calling the male-female dynamic a "quaint myth" and insisting that if animals can engage in "queer" sex, why shouldn't humans. Appearing on the extremist, left-wing Democracy Now podcast, Page attacked the "cis hetero patriarchal structure" and claimed that the traditional way we view gender is scientifically inaccurate. ... On the podcast, Page, who narrates the film, insisted that the normal gender ideas that mankind have supported for all of recorded history are "absurd." "In terms of looking at nature as if it's some sort of cis hetero patriarchal structure is absurd, and that this, you know, gender binary that we've created is nothing but a quaint little myth," Page said. The actor added that Second Nature, the documentary he is flogging on the podcast, "really shows what we have been taught in school in regards to these structures -- men being superior, women being inferior. You know, submissive or what have you -- it being this heterosexual existence is just completely false." Page goes on to assert that the idea that queer is normal and traditional gender roles are "false" has been "suppressed" from general knowledge.
...
The five foot one, 106-pound actor recently sparked controversy by being cast as a Greek Warrior in director Christopher Nolan's epic remake of The Odyssey. Detractors thought it was absurd to cast a tiny trans actor as a powerful warrior in the epic tale.
Ng checked out early. "I was bored out of my mind," he says, adding he was gone "pretty much from the beginning." The sound didn't help. He says he couldn't make out the dialogue at first, and once he could, he realized "how bad the dialogue is." His verdict: "This is the most pretentious movie I've seen all year." And the kicker: "I can't wait to not see this movie again." When the two wrapped up, the one-word summary of Ng's reaction was simply "disaster." Gore: 'Not A Disaster,' But Mixed Gore lands softer, though it's no rave. The modern-sounding accents "diminished the film" for him and made Nolan's period epic play more like Alejandro Jodorowsky's El Topo, "a modern epic," in his words. He also says parts drag, especially in the first half. The highlights, per Gore: the Cyclops material, the fall of Troy, and Samantha Morton as the witch Circe, the same performance Nolan has been comparing to Heath Ledger's Joker. He also calls the way the soldiers transform "very clever," while declining to spoil how.I think Circe turns his men into pigs.
"I'm still marinating on it," Gore says. "It's not a disaster." His final word is "mixed," and unlike Ng, he's going back for a second viewing.That's a quote you want on your movie poster -- "It's not a disaster."
Here's a digest of some reviews, echoing most of what Gore and Ng said -- the film is very slow in its first half, and of course it's three hours long, and no one seems to be in character. As Gore said, it's just Matt Damon and Tom Holland reading lines. You never feel like you're watching people who aren't celebrity actors.
abe Hernandez | Urban Fantasy AuthorThe movie comes out on Thursday. I already have my tickets to not see it reserved. If you haven't gotten your tickets to not see it yet, you better act quick, they're running out. Not seeing The Odyssey is going to be the cultural event of the year. Meanwhile, the remake of Little House on the Prairie is just as woke as everyone feared it would be.
@MrGabeHernandez Early, TRUSTED reactions of The Odyssey are confirming what I feared would happen. The Odyssey is a pretentious slog to get through.
The specific critiques are fairly consistent. Casting controversy: Ellen Page and Lupito Nyong'o appear in glorified cameos. For all the controversy their casting generated, they had no meaningful presence in the film, which gives weight to the theory that they were brought on as stunt casting and Oscar bait. Music/Sound: A consistent Nolan criticism across several of his films is the bad sound mixing. That problem persists here. Further, the Travis Scott "rap" at the end is described as "painfully cringey." Main Actors: Aside from the one or two standouts, such as Samantha Morton as Circe, none of the actors embody or immerse themselves in their roles. The ensemble presents as actors simply reading through the script. Visuals: The historical foibles regarding armor, weapons, and ships have been dissected to death, but the bigger problem is the overall aesthetic that's grey and dark. It's as if Nolan shot the film in a frequently overcast corner of Northern Europe instead of any locale that resembles the Mediterranean regions. Pacing: The film doesn't "get going" until at least 30 minutes in. A 3-hour film is a lot to ask of an audience, so if the opening hook is sedate, you've got a problem on your hands. Dialogue: The modern language frequently takes viewers out of the story, particularly with all the actors speaking in their respective native accents. There's no sense of period or commonality around a culture and its people. Will The Odyssey be a commercial hit or bomb? Too soon to tell, but it does appear clear that the controversies were self-inflicted, that this "interpretation" of Homer's Odyssey was meant to appeal to a very small set of cinephile elitists and Hollywood backscratchers, and that Christopher Nolan forgot the one thing that a director should never forget... A film's first and primary job is to entertain.
Fandom Pulse
@fandompulse Little House on the Prairie showrunner Rebecca Sonnenshine on why she rebuilt the frontier classic around a new lens: "I think a lot of our pop culture portrays the West as men riding around with guns and solving problems with violence and posturing, but that is just not how it was settled... We really are trying to do a show that does not fall back on tropes of sort of masculinity." Is a story about settling the American frontier supposed to avoid masculinity?

There's no other way for me to put this: Netflix did indeed woke-ify Little House on the Prairie. This new version makes a deep bow to contemporary concerns about the politics of the source material. Some of the Ingalls family's closest new friends on the show are an Osage couple, a black doctor and black storekeeper, and a French Canadian woman who wears trousers and practices free love."--Rebecca Onion, Slate

Achilles: The Ultimate Warrior
Role: The greatest warrior of the Greek army and the central hero of Homer’s Iliad.
Abilities: Nearly invulnerable due to being dipped in the River Styx by his mother, with his heel being his only weak spot.
Key Feats: Slew the Trojan champion Hector and won countless battles before being killed by Paris with a poisoned arrow to his heel.
Sinon: The Ultimate Deceiver
Role: A cunning Greek spy who was cousin and trusted companion to Odysseus.
Abilities: A master of manipulation and persuasion.
Key Feats: He allowed himself to be captured by the Trojans and spun an elaborate lie that convinced them to bring the Trojan Horse inside their city walls, ultimately sealing Troy's fate. Sinon does not appear in Homer’s Odyssey but plays a prominent role in Virgil’s Aeneid

Seriously.
None of the major parties are running candidate against Farage, because they know they'd lose. So the only opponent left is Count Binface.
As crazy as that might seem, it's not even the craziest part. Are you ready for this?
The Left actually expect Count Binface to win!
Although he is a joke candidate, he is suddenly receiving massive donations and thousands of volunteers flooding into Clacton to help him campaign against Farage. Because the entire left and the entire fake-conservative Establishment are lining up behind Count Binface in an attempt to humiliate Farage by having him lose to a joke candidate.
Of all the crazy elections in 2026, this mkay well be the craziest.

When I first heard that there was going to be a big budget Odyssey movie, I was excited enough to contemplate going to the theater for the first time in years. When I found out what they were doing to it, that impulse evaporated. I'm quite sure I'm not alone.

And Sinon is not even in the Odyssey, but the Aeneid.
One YT channel says that Nolan stripped the story down to its structure like he did with Dark Knight. But with the Odyssey that doesn't work because Odysseus is not Bruce Wayne.

And how dare they corrupt Little House on the Prairie! My husband read those books aloud to our kids when they were little and his takeaway from them was that "Pa was a badass - he almost dies in every chapter." Like when a panther was sighted in the region and Pa just takes his gun off the wall, says goodbye, and goes off to stalk the panther and kill it. No drama, just a man of action.

That probably sped it up, but these days even white male writers in Hollywood are self emasculated to the point that hiring 100 percent white dudes would not fix the problem.
And the answer is the corporate heads are willing to lose money forever. We already know that, even when they luck into a movie someone likes they make sure they don't do it again - Joker vs Joker 2, etc.

_____________________________
Just watching the trailer had me questioning why all the actors (inclusive of the Brits) were using "American" accents. The usual formula is for British accents...although Damon's disaster Scotish accent in "The Great Wall" might have put the nail in that coffin.
Additionally, the modern language is a joke. In the trailer Holland is speaking to Pattinson and says, "My dad will return soon." Ummmmm...this is a Greek fundamental story. Sure, they used endearment terms in that time....BUT "dad" in Greek is "pappas" which is the origin of the term "Papa." That is very distracting to even someone like me who could give a shit about the movie. But, such an oversight is unforgivable when hundreds of millions are involved.

I can't believe they still blabber this nonsense. Their "Animals are gay too" falsehood was debunked a jillion times already, but reality and facts are irelevant to them.
It has been proven that the 0.0001% of animal species that occasoinally "engage" in "homosexual mating" only do so in response to extreme environmental distress, generally "all the females in the local populatin dying out" or something similar. Obviously the "trait"m of homosexuality can be passed down genetically, so it never evolved in animals. Duh. And their other argument, that some male animals perform child-rearing roles that in our worldview are "feminine"-seeming -- that too is just anthro-centric bias, not anytihg to do with maleness or femaleness. If a seahrse male protects the newborn seahorses by hiding them in his mouth when predators swim by, doe that make him gay? Or "feminine"? No. That's jut what ,ale seahorses do. Etc.
The lEft lies and lies and lies and lies and lies, and never stop lying, and debunking their lies doesn't stop them from lying. Their existence in nothing but lying.

A lot of angry idiots and a decently good movie
It's looking like it's gonna be great. Critic reception has been great, and non critics who have gotten to see it early seem to like it as well. Considering its Nolan I was always gonna give it a shot, but I'm quite excited now.
It'll be pretty good and a lot of people will write their reviews before having seen it because they've already decided that they are going to hate it or love it.
A decent enough movie to be rated a 6-9. Good performances and cool scenes. In spite of what it achieves, there's going to be automatic haters and they'll be loud about it.
The cast is loaded, Nolan is a good director, the Odyssey itself is pretty cool. There's fake controversy from content creators despite nitpicking details from stills and trailers that may not be true in the finished movie; they've never seen the movie but they already despise it.
Richard Roeper calls The Odyssey one of the best films of the decade and one of the most memorable since watching movies as a critic in the 80s

She's clearly not pure black. Her striking blue eyes are her best feature, IMHO.
Vanessa Williams is not half white. Both of her parents identify as monoracial Black.
However, her DNA is highly admixed. A DNA test she took revealed her genetic makeup to be roughly 53% Sub-Saharan African, 34% European (including British Isles, Finnish, Portuguese, and Southern European), and 13% Indigenous American. She also has a documented history of mixed-race ancestry on her family tree, including an interracial marriage from the 1870 census

Some of them allegedly have trouble telling the difference sometimes, deep in the throes of the mating season, especially in species with low sexual dimorphism like swans.

There was an artist years ago; maybe a painter or sculptor, supposedly he said he could sh*t in a can and sell it as art and people would spend ridiculous amounts of money to buy it.
I think this movie is Nolan's sh*t in a can; see how many people he can get to see, spend money on and defend this garbage. I hope if fails and I hope men get blamed again for it's failure because all many of us are doing is just refusing to spend money on this twaddle.

The pursuit of awards was always the ends unto itself. There was a period of a few decades where they coincidentally lined up.
It was when the studios were using the awards to pat themselves on the back for making money.
That changed in the late 60s and early 70s when the studio system finally collapsed. The point of the big awards became disassociated from box office over time.
Hollywood was never, ever going to nominate Ghostbusters for Best Picture in 1985, and it was the #1 movie of the year at the box office.
And that was 40 years ago.

Uncle Buck suffers from a specific problem, I think. It's the same problem that John Ford's 3 Godfathers suffers from.
The main character is supposed to be at least something of a bad guy in the beginning who learns to be a good guy, but they start the film as good, affable, likeable guys so there's no where for the character to actually go.
William Wyler made a version of the 3 Godfathers story in the very early sound era called Hell's Heroes. The three start the film arguing about which one is going to rape the dying woman with the baby. They grow and become better people by the end.

Trust me. It wasn't that "there were too many good movies" that Ghostbusters wasn't nominated.
In 1928? Ghostbusters would have been nominated. It might not have won, but it would have been nominated. Through the first decade, all of the winners were top three at the box office.
By the 80s, there was a very clear break where box office winners had to be the "right" kind of movie to be considered, much less win.
The awards have been gatekeeping since the inception, it's just that the early gatekeepers valued success in commerce more than messages because they had Western Union to send messages.

It's hard to pick out a movie with Brad Pitt in a role where it wasn't entertaining regardless of the director. He even pointed out in SEVEN the studio wanted to replace the human head with a dog's head, and he said he'd walk if they did because that's what makes the movie, and why people will be invested in the conclusion.

We could argue about the percentages, but I think it differs from animal to animal. You can usually tell by the dimorphism of what comes next.
For instance, most cats are difficult to tell if they are male or female excepting of course the lion. If you've had a female cat in heat then you know she is consenting to just about any tomcat who can get in reach.
Among primates, orangutans are ridiculously different. I recall reading that orangutan mating tends to be Platner-tier forceful as a rule.

I agree. I liked Uncle Buck a lot. Summer rental also another John Candy movie. I think the point with him is he is kind of any everyman slub. Mired in his own existence, struggling against life, just like the rest of us maybe a little to self concerned, and in the end, unlike most of us, he wins through. Its not a complicated character arc. He's us, except it turns out okay in the end for him. That's the payoff. That's a legitimate leading role. He was good at it. But I'm not a movie critic.

I just checked... it looks like her sperm and egg donors (I won't call them "parents") started pimping her out to show biz at the age of 10. After a hundred years of movies (and I'm thinking live theatre wasn't/isn't immune to this), I think we can safely say that any "parent" who puts a kid in show biz knows EXACTLY what's going to happen to that kid.

Okay, so we have a birdhouse that has been hanging in the same spot every spring for years. The birds fight over it. There are usually multiple sets of birds born in it every year from spring through summer months.
Every time its the same thing. Once the first round of eggs hatches and the fledglings are off, a female bird lands on top of the bird house. She sticks her butt up and tail feathers out of the way until a male hops on her. She wears him out. At this point I typically yell at that them to get a room. We are going on our third round of eggs this year. Its like we are hosting a redlight district flop house on our back porch.

Him making a mess isn't enough. He needs to get something really wrong. Lose a kid on accident, or something.
Then he has to correct because he's learning a life lesson. He earns a new lease on life by self-reflection and action to affirm it. Music swells. Tears earned.

This would actually be a decent, though not conclusive, test as to whether a woman "is a man inside".
Put 'em in an environment where Kelly's Heroes comes at random points in the movie.
If the "trans man" stops to watch it, that's positive evidence, though it should be confirmed with The Three Stooges, Ultimate Fighting Championship, tractor pull competitions, etc.

Absolutely nothing about the book or the tv series revolved around guns or solving problems with violence and the only 'tropes of masculinity' it 'fell back on' were positive depictions.

But, Democrats won't back off from it.
The Italian Democrat Party is the model. They've gotten steadily less important since the late 2000s as they've embraced open borders to the point where they can't get anything done in the Italian parliament. Nothing will reverse their descent, it seems.

On crime, they'd allow requiring bail (for felonies) and prison (for multiple violent crimes) - and these would, in no way, be affected by plea bargains.
On trannies, they'd take the most leftward position of the middle possible.
Sounds a whole lot like saying "The problem is the messaging, not the message" which has been the Dem position forever.

I strongly suspect that the Democrat brand is broken for a while. Just...broken.
Biden's open borders killed it. The rest are side shows (the embrace of transgenderism didn't help at all), but the core of it was the open borders. Everything about life in America got worse, and everyone could point to immigration as a proximate cause most of the time (people won't make the connection between immigration and inflation, but it's also a major contributing factor there, too, especially since so much government money went to support the new, replacement population).
Texas border counties went from hard blue to light red. The Hispanic move against Democrats was solidified by a few elections in a row where people were voting Republican, creating a lifelong pattern.
And, the face of the party has gotten...awful. Biden glitching out at the debate. Kamala cackling. The women and minorities who screech all the time. The terrorism sympathizers.
It's bad for them now.

Transgender activists have taken the maximalist position that if they don't get everything they demand, they're victims of genocide.
The left is really good at silencing their crazies when they want to. Just look at how they basically made climate change a non-issue as soon as they decided they like AI and that needs data centers and electricity. But I don't know that they can silence the transgender activists.

Trump has forcibly deported about 1.2 million people since he took office, and the pace is increasing.
3-4 million more have left (self-deportations to forced is usually a ratio of something like 3:1 to 6:1, so trend towards the low end for safety).
That's over 4 million left in just over Trump's first year, most of which was with reduced ICE funding compared to post OBBB funding. It's going to get faster, especially with new Treasury regulations that tell banks to treat illegals as financial risks, denying them accounts and loans, cutting off illegals (and even some classes of legals) from the American financial system.
Democrats can't stop this if they gain Congress.
Lots of people are leaving. It was so bad last year that America lost population for the first time in decades on net.

The environment is all different now.
They don't have someone in power now like Clinton was then to force a party-wide shift.
Their media ecosystem is much more overtly leftist and actively shouts down those who betray the narrative, as opposed to the 90s when they were mostly just ignored.
The funders of the party are insane leftists and won't give real money to actual moderates (even Biden had to shit all over his "moderate" record as a Senator in 2020 during his primary run).
The party can't moderate without a black swan event. And that's not going to be Wes Moore.

But they prefer to call American citizens the invaders, who "stole" everything they now call their own. But most of what the white man got they either settled, or they purchased it from Indians, for pretty Western things, and metal objects like guns and farm tools.
Massasoit said the Indians' problems would not come from the white man, but from other Indian tribes. The white man simply had the superior culture, and Squanto and others said they would rather live in white man world, because it was far superior. Most of those noble savages were more savage than noble.

- Immigration -- OK, so they just want to make them all legal. Introduce many more "pathways". More TPS, ("T"PS) more H1b, more more more.
- Crime -- death penalty for child support? A little rough, but I support it. Death penalty "if voters want it." Huh, that sounds like what we have, and democracy. Most of this is blah blah blah and just relies on more power to state and more discretion. What about gun laws? What about "defund the police"?
- Trans - well he is playing semantics here. "OK, you guys can keep the meaning of "biological sex" but we still keep "gender" to mean fuck all, and we keep doing exactly what we want except women's sports. (where the sane people are already winning.)

-- 1. There is not, nor should there be, a "national dress code." Everyone should be free to wear whatever clothes they want. And fashion constantly change. A century ago ,it would be nearly unthinkable for a woman to wear pants -- now it is the default clothing for women. So if a dude wants to wear a dress -- hey, not my bailiwick. go for it.
-- 2. It is actually very useful that crazy people self-identify by dressing up as the opposite sex. Saves me the effort of trying to fifgure out who is crazy or not. So if a crazy dude wants to wear a dress -- excellent, now I know he is crazy, and know to avoid him/not-hire him/shun him/laiu8gh at him.
And if he goes into the women's bathroom or locker room-- arrest him.

I still maintain that a Democrat who advocated for "closed borders, all the welfare, only welfare for Americans," would actually do really well with the middle part of America.
The problem in developing someone like that is that the Democrat system is designed to suppress anyone like that, and the money that would fund sudden black horse candidates like that wouldn't fund such a candidate, and if one did decided to, they wouldn't be able to overpower the anti-side of it within the Democrat media ecosystem.
They'd get shouted down and ignored faster than their message could spread, plus the creation of personal controversies that make the person untouchable.

I think I need to amplify this.
Fascism is not what the Dems pretend it is. It is a nihilistic doctrine that the only thing that could stop a State is the State itself. There is nothing but the state where the state decides to act.
But to Dems "fascism" is that government that has been invalidated and we all agree is not allowed. Thus, the only value they have for "fascism" is not the meaning itself, but government that is not how they would choose to run things. If you want to run things with the "frozen force" of government in a way that they do not want to comply with, that's the government That Should Not Be, and thus, "fascism".
That's the only use they have for "fascism", is a government (force) that does not act as they would have it.
Particularly, a government that is an expression of an expectation of restraint. Now, restraint --that's real "fascism"!

1. Sexual arousal is "good".
2. Is a man gets sexual arousal from feeling like a woman, why do you want to police that?
3. Our society should be more gender-bending, because gender isn't really real.
And anything that works for #3 is "progress".
Thus, women's feelings of being "creeped on" take second place.

To make matters worse, an ex-DSA activist has said the worst mistake the DNC made was to refuse funding to the hard left socialists. Because the socialists went out and found their own billionaires, started their own networks, learned how to campaign.
And they have recruited very attractive -- physically attractive, with exotic names and appearances -- candidates. The face of their party is Nithya, Melat, Abdul, Zohran. Yeah, morons will say their ideology makes them ugly, but they're smooth, they articulate they bullshit in an articulate way, they're young, they're objectively attractive.

The ads were for 2024, and the GOP won that year.
The specific ads using Dem quotes didn't work, but the overall effort to paint Democrats as not being supportive of Americans did.
I suspect there will be more ads using more footage of Democrats that will help the GOP in 2026.

A Working-Class Party Without Many Workers. In 2021 the DSA was 85 percent non-Hispanic white (national average 58%); 9 percent were Hispanic, 5 percent Asian American and 4 percent Black.
Liberal stands on immigration, transgender rights, abolishing ICE and defunding the police are supported largely by a well-educated elite of white people holding professional jobs. They are not the policies sought by the construction workers riding the subway to get to their job sites by 7 a.m.
income and education patterns emerged in the Seventh District, where the DSA candidate (Valdez) crushed Antonio Reynoso, the Brooklyn borough president, 56.1 to 35.8. Valdez won 62 to 28 in the district’s high-income neighborhoods and 64 to 27 in its high-education areas, while Reynoso carried the low-income sections 63 to 31.
What’s notable but not written about is that nearly all of the D.S.A.’s serious primary campaigns are aimed at members of the House Progressive Caucus, not the more moderate House New Democrats. Support for Medicare for All, Green New Deal, Abolish ICE is no protection.

The illegals who want a green card should self deport and make request for temporary visa and green card with a waiting period of at least a year after they deport. I would be willing to give them more consideration after they do this since they would have shown the responsibility we want from a citizen.

I think the Clinton example is actually evidence that this sort of thing is rare.
It took Clinton, a rare political talent who was already president, forcing a turn towards the center of his party after 1994.
The party hasn't done it since, and the rise of Obama created a generation of political consultants and politicians who view any softening on any issue as religious apostasy.

I guess Elric has a better sense of Mad-manny's political future than I do, but I think Mad-manny can easily whip up even more support by blaming his problems on greedy capitalists leaving the state, Kathy Hochul not giving him enough money, etc. As in Animal Farm, it's the mean human farmers. He's probably counting on Boxer to vow, "I will work harder!"

Seriously.
None f the major parties are running candidate against Farage, because they know they'd lose. So the only opponent left is Count Binface.
As crazy as that might seem, it's not event he craziest part. Are you ready for this?
The Left actually expect Cunt Binface to win!
Although he is a joke candidate, he is suddenly receiving massive donations and thousands of volunteers flooding into Clacton to help him campaign against Farage. Because the entire left and the entire fake-conservative Establishment are lining up behind Count Binface in an attempt to humiliate Farage by having him lose to a joke candidate.
If all the crazy elections in 2026, this mkay well be the craziest.

There’s a very dark side to this story. If Binface wins, then it means that a majority of the electorate agrees that the British government has become a bad joke, and it’s too late to even bother trying to fix it.
If Farage loses, then I’ll have to say they’re correct.

@TVNewsNow 🚨 NEW: Fox News panel CALLS OUT MS NOW host for saying she refused to air White House press briefings during Trump's first term because the 'lying hurt me' Trace Gallagher: "Can you imagine if Fox stopped carrying the Biden press conferences? They would be freaking out!" "This is exactly why we see distrust of the media - 70% of Americans no longer trust the media," adds Fox panelist. "It's so ridiculous that we have a 'news anchor' saying it hurts her feelings to cover the news, the facts coming out of the WH. The job of the media is to cover the facts: The American people can decide for themselves what they want to do with those facts." "We are not Russia, Iran or China to censor information. We are here as public servants to share information."

See, this is a thing about pronouns. If you think a close reading is too pedantic, I don't want you doing math on my project.
"Told their husbands" would be anonymous, and a group.
"Tole their husband" means -- and can mean nothing other than -- that several women share a husband. It's a number problem.
If her thinking on background is that sloppy, I sure don't trust her on the actual substance of the argument. It's a form of babble that reveals a confused mind. If you can't engineer a precise sentence, you've got no business making laws.

Who do you think has been rigging our elections?
The CIA was created to do regime change in foreign countries. That was its special purpose. We all saw it play out in real time in Ukraine and that is just one of many.
Guess what happened in Latin America when the CIA stopped "assisting" their elections? Rightwing candidates have gone 7 for 7 in the last year.
It was only a matter of time before they turned their gaze inward and made sure the right person got elected.

The number of Republicans who are willing to publicly vote against Trump is small and getting smaller with every Congress.
There are going to be a dozen GOP senators who don't want to vote for legislation but will do it anyway because they fear being put on blast.
Mitch, Murkowski, Tillis, Cassidy, and Cornyn were already on blast and took the hit. Without their human shield people like Curtis (UT) probably won't decide to make examples of themselves.

“It could be really cool if Congress was filled with goth people,” Kelley Dennison, the 27-year-old Republican nominee for Colorado’s 2nd congressional district, told the Daily Caller.
The Gen Z massage therapist is campaigning on an unexpected aesthetic, selling merchandise that tout her as “America’s Goth Baddie.”
She will face a tough battle in November against incumbent Representative Joe Neguse, who has held the seat since 2019 and ran unopposed in the Democratic primary. But she hopes her unorthodox approach will inspire fellow zoomers to run for office and spark conversation about what it means to look like a young conservative.

You know, ironically, as hard core as I am about legitimate elections - actually calling for capital punishment for vote fraud - I'd be willing to accept even unfavorable results if I knew they were legitimate. It's the absolute certainty of fraudulent voting/vote counting that I see in every election going back to Kennedy's win over Nixon due to the Chicago cemetery vote that makes me very, very angry.

What did Democrats do with their majority under Biden?
They did a giant slush fund (the Inflation Reduction Act) and no policy wins at all on things like guns, immigration (Biden just didn't enforce laws), healthcare, or anything.
They didn't nuke the filibuster and let Kamala just be the tie-breaking vote after breaking Manchin's legs to get pure socialism passed.

CNBC: Here Are The Ten Worst States to Live In or Start a Business In. They're All, Get This, the Red States Experiencing The Highest In-Migration.
You will not be surprised to learn that one of CNBC's main criteria for deeming a state the "worst" to live in is whether they... allow transexuals in opposite-sex bathrooms.
Bennett's Phylactery
@extradeadjcb Reasons states wind up on this list (not exaggerating) 1. Not enough abortions
2. Not gay enough
3. "food insecurity"
4. Not enough HR rules
5. Not enough gun laws
6. Not enough therapists
7. Not enough working moms
8. Not enough affirmative action
Chris Queen, PJMedia:
Colin Wright
@SwipeWright Here are the reasons CNBC ranked Tennessee as "America's Worst Place to Live in 2026." 1. Laws require people to use facilities matching their sex.
2. Localities can't create laws circumventing 1.
3. The Governor designated June "Nuclear Family Month."
4. TN isn't "inclusive," meaning the state knows that men who claim to be women aren't women and should not be treated as such. Do these sound like negatives to you? I moved from California to Tennessee in 2022 and it was probably the best decision I've ever made. I love it here.
Other than crime rates, which most often occur in red-state cities, which are the bluest areas of said states, the criteria for "quality of life" that CNBC uses are woke as a joke. Environmentalism, free healthcare, unions, and prioritizing the rainbow are what CNBC looked at.So, abortion, trannies, and DEI. Got it. For some reason, most people seem to think that states are better off without this agenda.
Here are some samples from the report. From the intro:
To score the states for quality of life, we use hard data on factors like crime rates, air quality, and healthcare. We also consider the cost and availability of childcare, inclusiveness of state laws, and reproductive rights. Some states offer exemplary quality of life. But these ten states do not make the grade.
I can see this being important if you're a tranny, but what about the other 99% of the population? Oh right -- normal people just don't count.
I have to show you the whole blurb for my home state of Georgia. The wokesters gave us a grade of F, so be proud, Georgians!Side note: If you're wanting to move from a blue state to the Peach State, don't. We full. Who's number one in the woke CNBC's ideological penalty box? The Volunteer State. Tennessee dares to offer counterprogramming to Pride Month (GASP)!
Georgia offers few protections for LGBTQ+ people, making it one of America's least inclusive states. "Georgia still remains a state where there is no place for hate, and I can assure all Georgians of that today," Republican Gov. Brian Kemp said in April, when he signed a bill aimed at protecting religious freedom. But critics feared the law could be used to permit other types of discrimination, especially because Georgia is another of the five states with no public accommodation law protecting non-disabled people. The Peach State offers minimal worker protections, particularly when it comes to the right to organize.
Tennessee Republicans, led by Gov. Bill Lee, make no apologies for a rash of state laws targeting the LGBTQ+ community, including a so-called "bathroom law" requiring transgender people to use the facilities designated for their sex at birth. The state also explicitly bars localities from adopting their own antidiscrimination ordinances. To underscore the point, Lee signed a resolution earlier this year designating June "Nuclear Family Month." "The nuclear family, consisting of one husband, one wife, and any biological, adopted, or fostered children, is God's design for familial structure and has been the bedrock of society since the creation of the world," the resolution states. Its sponsors deliberately timed the observance to coincide with the month when Tennessee's more than 300,000 LGBTQ+ people celebrate Pride.
The list garnered rich Corinthian mockery.
CNBC faced a wave of online mockery Monday after releasing its annual quality-of-life rankings, which exclusively placed conservative red states in all 10 spots of the "worst places to live" -- even as official U.S. Census data shows some of those states are leading the nation in population growth. Critics quickly took to social media to call out the outlet for what they alleged as blatant liberal bias embedded in its ranking criteria. Counting down from the tenth-worst place to the first, CNBC ranked the bottom ten states as Arkansas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Missouri, Utah, Georgia, Louisiana, Indiana, Texas, and Tennessee. All 10 states are Republican-led and voted for President Donald Trump in 2024. ... The metric also factors heavily in ideological policies, explicitly penalizing states for lack of protections against discrimination and restrictive abortion laws. ... "CNBC just dropped their 2026 '10 Worst States to Live In' list ... and it's pure comedy," conservative commentator Reverend Jordan Wells wrote on X. ... The corporate media outlet took direct shots at local conservative legislation across the board. Tennessee was dinged for the state's "bathroom law" -- which requires transgender individuals to use facilities corresponding with their biological sex at birth -- as well as a law barring localities from passing their own local antidiscrimination ordinances. ... Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom immediately seized on the study, taking to X to point out that every single state on the list leaned red. "Notice something in common?" Newsom posted. "All led by Republicans -- many suffering from California Derangement Syndrome." However, conservatives and independent commentators noted that everyday Americans are "voting with their feet" against progressive governance. ... "Actually I noticed something else: The list is a bulls--t list that has nothing to do with quality of life for sane people," countered conservative activist Robby Starbuck, a Tennessee resident. Starbuck, known for successfully leading major corporate boycotts against over-the-top DEI policies, added, "It's all predicated on far left BS... Our states all gained population while YOUR state lost a record amount." Media personality Patrick Bet-David cited the net migration gains of the states CNBC criticized, noting that Texas added over 67,000 residents and Tennessee added over 42,000.
Yes, the worst places to live are where everyone is moving and the best places to live are actually the left-wing socialist states everyone is moving out of or something. pic.twitter.com/vxzUyJs5A4

Crime stats out of most big cities are as fake as the USSR's crop reports. Nothing but the biggest crimes get timely police attention, so the locals learn smaller crimes aren't worth reporting. We also have recent proof of police leadership in places like DC leaning on first responder officers to downgrade serious crimes in their reports. Lots of cities stopped reporting their stats to the FBI, too.

They just want to get their Moloch on. Having been more or less born into the pro-life movement, and moving ever closer to abolitionism, it's really amazing how the arguments are every bit as wicked and hollow then as they are now. You should check out the vids Abolitionists Rising puts out with their street encounters. And it's interesting to see that while their interactions vary from the merely vapid and programmed to the true believer, the arguments from the pro-abortion crowd are the same empty NOW/Planned Parenthood scripted lines as they were in the 80s.

Thanks for checking, Bulg. He is still in the hospital, they said probably tomorrow. When PT came in, he had sudden drops of blood pressure just with shifts in position. My step mother went home to change, shower, eat, etc so we told my dad to call me or my sister if a doctor comes in and no one is there with him. Just to get a few pairs of ears listening. He didn’t think I needed to go up there, he was pretty adamant that I don’t. He said he had enough bossy people around already. 😂

Oh it's still going on. It's a propaganda point being pushed to young women who are mindlessly repeating it. You'll hear it almost every time you listen to the "Whatever" podcast (not from the host, from the guests). I think it's a deliberate effort to distract from and obfuscate actual grooming of kids who don't know (or shouldn't know) anything about sex, introducing them to increasingly intense and explicit materials, creating trust and dependence, tearing down boundaries that should be in place, treating the kid as "special" and that only the grooming adult can be trusted to understand, etc etc. All the classic child abuse tactics, which are now established curriculum and school operation policies in some places.

It was more widespread than than. As an example, there was a viral video that went out three years ago. A 21 year old gym girl labeled a guy hanging around "feral" and called herself an "underaged 21 year old." So far as anyone can tell from the video, the guy was just waiting for the space or possibly recovering between sets.

Honorable to their own tribe and hierarchy, not to outsiders.
They're extremely suspicious of outsiders to the point that they have requirements about integration into Japanese culture for immigration.
They have a facade of politeness, but their culture is actually not that polite.

It's also common everywhere in Europe - the Polish fiance shows me how much a European pays for tourist attractions and hotels in Europe vs how much I would pay. He has offered to always make me all bookings if I want to visit (which I kinda don't right now - as I tell him, every time we talk, he convinces me more and more about how awesome the USA is)...

Pennsylvania and Tennessee share some broad legal frameworks—like the federal Constitution and standard uniform laws such as the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA). However, their specific state codes differ significantly across taxation, criminal law, and property rights.

A few years ago a comic book artist, Warren Ellis, got cancelled for "grooming". He liked the ladies and there were no limit to the amount of gamma level groupies at comic cons he could invite to his hotel room. However, he was accused of "grooming", "love bombing", and even hypnotization of these 20 something and older women. Cancelled as a perv, hasn't worked again in the industry to my knowledge.

Kansas outmigration is due to tax burden, a Democrat Governor, Woke courts, woke public schools, a crackdown on illegals in meat plants, and housing supply constraints. 80% of the population is in a few urban areas, which skews results.

A few years ago a comic book artist, Warren Ellis, got cancelled for "grooming". He liked the ladies and there were no limit to the amount of gamma level groupies at comic cons he could invite to his hotel room. However, he was accused of "grooming", "love bombing", and even hypnotization of these 20 something and older women. Cancelled as a perv, hasn't worked again in the industry to my knowledge.

I think if I lived in a state that was free to make it's own abortion laws and chose restriction, and I really wanted to abort a child, I'd travel to the nearest blue state.
I don't think "rights" are about convenient access.
After all, do you know how much work it would take for me to have my own news network? That restricts the sphere of influence of my "first amendment rights", but it does not restrict them.

I'd rather the opposite. If it can't be all sales/tariffs.
No property; all income; zero deductions or credits for anyone, business or personal.
I can't adjust the value of my property--but counties can and do, especially when they need to raise more revenue.
But I can adjust my income.
And if everyone is taxed, no one gets a discount, everyone has skin in the game to keep taxes low.

Sucks for people selling now, but its a necessary correction after the immigrant wave under Biden jacked up home prices 20% (according to the Fed).
That gets corrected through deportations.

There are good areas and bad areas. The town I live in has and effective crime rate of 0. Taxes are moderate, amenities are through the roof, people are beyond friendly and helpful, the range is 15 minutes from my house and I only lock the doors at night out of habit. I'm more likely to have a deer invade than a person.
I've been in every state other than North Dakota and Alaska and I chose this place because it suits me. If my needs change I'll consider moving but I'm not lacking in any freedoms and the cost of living isn't really an issue.

That is the taxing miracle of inflation. The "Fair Tax" is effectively the same thing with a ton of regulations, carve-outs, and opportunities to game the system in such a way it destroys savers, and rewards foreigners who return to where they came once they earn their tax free income.

He did a list of the best State economies and listed California, New York, and Minnesota near the very top of the list. California has $1.3 Trillion debt. New York has $2.33 Billion debt. Minnesota has $8.54 Billion debt. All three of these states are losing taxpayers inclusive of high value commercial businesses and high income earners.
Yet, somehow, to Cohn, NY, CA and MN are great places to do business.
Posted by: Orson at July 14, 2026 01:14 PM (dIske)
And then looked at the median income earner in each state and the % of income paid via those 4 taxes.
The 10 highest states had an average of 11.5% of income paid. The bottom 10 had an average of 6.5%.
High tax states aren’t that high and low tax states aren’t that low for the median income worker. They all tax in the same general neighborhood. Where it gets to the extremes is for high income people. California fucks you good and hard if you make $500k or more whereas TN or NV with no income tax, obviously does not.

That’s too bad. I think it depends how far you are from Boston. I was only 35 mins out of Boston directly west. I had a tiny (<1000 sq ft + 250 finished basement with only 1 bath) 50 yr old house but in a nice town. I made a boat load on it with a bidding war. All my sons had left Mass and I only have 1 sibling left in CT, who’s going south once retirement is reached. There was nothing keeping me there, especially since I couldn’t get a job.

The Morning Rant: Democratic Socialists Of America Is The Same Tired Evil, But With A Pretty Name
We are socialists because we reject an international economic order sustained by private profit, alienated labor, race and gender discrimination, environmental destruction, and brutality and violence in defense of the status quo.
Oh no! Private profit! You know...the thing that has driven literally every advancement in human history. The other stuff is just as nonsensical, and if you have the intestinal fortitude, click on the link and look at how bereft of facts the entire website is! They love jargon and obfuscation and political buzz-words, but run screaming from reality...because reality destroys socialism!
Khanna reveals the billionaire tax is just the beginning
the tax should not stop at billionaires; it must reach centimillionaires. The tax has to reach all fortunes $50 million and up.
Here's more of their class warfare nonsense. Soon that $50,000,000 threshold will dip down into the middle class, and all of the home owners of America will be demonized, because THERE IS NEVER ENOUGH MONEY! Socialists launch radical platform to abolish the US Senate in bid to fundamentally transform America
As many of its candidates notch electoral wins nationwide, the pre-eminent socialist political group in the U.S., the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), plans to roll out an updated platform that includes eliminating the Senate and replacing the president and the Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen by Congress. According to a source familiar with the DSA’s planning, the organization plans to roll out an update next week to its long-term vision for a U.S. policy platform. The update includes eliminating the U.S. Senate and replacing the president and the Supreme Court with an executive branch and judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress. Additionally, the updated platform would include amnesty for all immigrants and defunding the Department of War. This would be in addition to the DSA’s current policy platform, which calls for an "immediate end to all deportations," free migration between countries without restrictive immigration controls, and "extending full voting rights to people with criminal convictions and noncitizens."
Ah...we finally arrive at the qualitative difference between the dinosaurs of the Democrats and the next generation...they are saying the quiet part out loud. That's the only difference! Both camps believe that they will be at the pinnacle of their new and improved political structure, and all of us will be at the bottom. That means that they will keep their huge homes and chauffeured cars and private jets... but it will all be in service to the new

Swamped the establishment pick Janet Mills (sitting governor) by dozens of points in the primary.
Outside of that, it's minimal primary performances that have allowed DSA candidates to beat Democrats in deep blue enclaves.

The smarter ones are figuring out that saying the quiet part out loud is electoral poison. See James Carville and Van Jones.
Also, some are coming to the realization that relying on Bernie Sanders to select your candidates might not be the smartest play.

I take great issue with this. It's not about a majority to them, it is sheer force of will. Millions will follow three dudes off a cliff if they think it will get them a square of toilet roll's worth of more power.
The idea that a "majority" has any say is a sop to keep the truly retarded among them (read: most of them) invested.

Certainly America has seen socialist candidates before, and has also seen organized leftist violence, as well as street violence of the Antifa type. I don't dispute any of that claim, but this iteration feels considerably more dangerous.
The Teachers Union has succeeded in destroying public education and the marxist domination of universities has delivered an illiterate generation receptive to every cant, unable to think critically, and convinced socialism has never been tried before, despite the bloody record of the twentieth century (of which they are unaware).

The establishment decided to not fund him. The establishment had been at war with him for months.
DSA just decided to cut their losses, I guess. Maybe they thought that backing Platner after the final accusation would have been the spark that actually started the war between DSA and Democrats at the national level, not just in this pocket.
The DSA knew he was going to lose the general, so he wasn't worth fighting for anymore. They stood to lose more than they could gain by beating the establishment in the primary fight but losing in the general in that instance.
Feels more like a tactical retreat than anything else.

That sentence was unclear in my full intention.
I don't think the DSA candidates in NYC will lose.
I do think they're trying to create an environment where the Democrat Party will lose, though. Not intentionally. They think their message is winning.
So, they want to spread the DSA messaging as far and wide as possible. It will probably be enough to win them in their specific races. It will probably be the kind of messaging that will deteriorate Democrat chances in other races, especially nearby.
"This is the future of the Democrat Party," in ads in purple districts, sort of thing.

Whether the Democrats are centrally controlled or not, their brand of politics is becoming toxic simply because it cannot do anything anymore--it is addicted to grifting, spending the public fisc into poverty, lies that girls are boys and vice versa, and so on. Harder to see in blue captured states but the truth is that your elections are certainly fake, gay, and full of fraud, and not organic representations of public will.
The measure of fraud in red states plus the now dead racial gerrymandering is what gives the left any chance of maintaining a national party instead of collapsing into decaying blue redoubts.

But moveable voters don't decide things based on politics. They vote on feels. And if D's come with strong messaging it will attract plenty of people on sound and feel alone, especially if the GOP goes limp or dumb again without Trump to deal with this stuff head on.

I'm coming in at #65, so pardon me if it's already been asked, but when is the DSA going to have an answer ready for "Where has socialism ever worked?" Like, make them name the place and time. It seems to me they should be working on that, and we should be prepping for their stupid answers, which will probably be something like "It's never had a chance to work because of US imperialism."

There was some Reddit post highlighted on X from a DSA-type.
They were worrying because they hung out with their working class family and felt repulsed by them even though this person was their advocate and was just trying to do the best for them.
But...the person obviously hated everything about the working class.
It was amusing.

Economic prosperity is driven by those at the top.
If you make the rewards of their efforts less, we get more effort spent in avoiding taxes and regulations rather than spent in pushing technology and services.

Using the "democrat" word is just like most other communist dictatorships.

But we don't teach history any more so the younger generations don't know they've signed a pact with the devil, politically. Then again, some of my generation loved them some Soviet style gummint.

"BREAKING: Per multiple federal sources to @FoxNews, ICE has been instructed to immediately cease most vehicle stops during immigration enforcement operations nationwide, except for operations targeting the most egregious criminal aliens. This comes after two people were killed by ICE in shootings in TX and ME in the last week in incidents that began as vehicle stops. DHS alleges one of those incidents was a ramming attempt.
I’m told this will be temporary until ICE officers receive new training on vehicle stops.
The policy change will have significant impacts as many of ICE’s arrests begin as vehicle stops when they find and follow a target, as we’ve witnessed on multiple embeds."

From what I saw, most of the DSA types don't particularly know what they are for, they know what they are against. Their actual knowledge is bits and bobs of slogans, the rush of camaderie with other degenerates, the keen types that see a revolution is something to be hyper organized (often women), the magnetic attraction of societal losers and downwardly mobile individuals, those with family issues, and freaks. It isn't really any doctrine because those doctrines change like socks as dictated by the few that try to 'direct' the revolution.
And that is a rebellion against normality because normality sucks for them so they want to change it.

Reinventing the Rousseau despot magistrates for the 'General Will'. And those idiots will be depressed as Rousseau himself admits quietly that the Right of Revolt exists if the magistrates are in fact falsely claiming general will for their actions.

2020 Arkansas senate race.

You need to read opinions but there is much to be said for reading the law.
No one really believes what Roberts said the 14th means by the word jurisdiction.
The extent of authority or control.
The territorial range of authority or control.
People that move in and out of countries for benefits are in NO WAY under the jurisdiction. That is why they hide, run to home, or another country when they finally face the law.

Speaking of....an engine of a Ryan Air plane somewhere in Europe threw a fan blade in flight. The blade went through the engine nacelle and hit the fuselage, taking out a passenger window. The guy sitting next to the window was partially sucked out, only because he had his seatbelt fastened loosely.
His wife held onto his feet and legs for a full five minutes before some other passengers eventually came over to help pull him back into the aircraft.
Five minutes...

It's no longer social suicide to model.
For example: the Peace Dollar has the only numismatic depiction of Lady Liberty where we know for certain who the model was - because it was the sculptor's wife, which made it ok.
Even modeling for *our nation's coinage* was considered the work of a common whore, so women and artists took pains to keep it quiet.
And that was only a hundred years ago.

He was struggling and not able to finish strong from the heat and humidity, probably never experienced that ever before in his career. But more so, the English defenders were double teaming him the whole game, and they know his game well since he plays in the EPL. So coach decided to try something different to shake things up and get the match tied in the last 15 minutes.

Cabanel, a painter who received numerous awards throughout his career, at that time played an important role in teaching at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and in running the Salon. Typical of his virtuoso technique, this painting is a perfect example of the popular and official artistic taste of the period.
In the eclectic spirit of the Second Empire, he combines references to Ingres with an 18th century style of painting.
Cabanel took as his subject a famous episode from classical mythology when Venus is born of sea-foam and carried ashore. This theme, very popular in the 19th century, provided some artists with the opportunity to introduce eroticism without offending public morality, under the pretext of representing a classical subject. For Cabanel, the mythological theme is indeed a pretext for the portrayal of a nude figure, which, though idealised, is nonetheless depicted in a lascivious pose.
Emile Zola denounced this ambiguity. 😏 (More).

Prior to his murder, Graham visited Ukraine where, according to a dream I had, he was given evidence that Candace Owens is a man. I will be publishing text messages I invented in which Owens confesses to being born male.

In large part, yes. Prior to this, the Romans worshipped ancient, formless, numinous gods. A sort of half-step between primitive deism and an organized theology. Those ancient religious features, particularly haruspices, persisted alongside the cribbed Greek theology, but the State religion reflected Greek theology more than its Latin or Etruscan roots from fairly early on.
This extended well beyond religion. The Romans in the Republic recognized and respected Greek intellectual traditions as superior to their own from the earliest days, to the point where Greek fluency was the mark of an elite man, and his children would be educated by Greek slaves.

"Film Threat founder Chris Gore and co-host Alan Ng caught a screening and posted a no-spoiler, out-of-theater reaction to YouTube, and this time the duo split. Gore walked out “mixed.” Ng walked out done.
Ng checked out early. “I was bored out of my mind,” he says, adding he was gone “pretty much from the beginning.” The sound didn’t help. He says he couldn’t make out the dialogue at first, and once he could, he realized “how bad the dialogue is.”
His verdict: “This is the most pretentious movie I’ve seen all year.” And the kicker: “I can’t wait to not see this movie again.” When the two wrapped up, the one-word summary of Ng’s reaction was simply “disaster.”
I don't know. Maybe it needed more trannies.

Yep. By his time patricians boasted on their educated Greek slaves like NFL owners talk about running backs. He himself was tutored by free Greeks who fled the depredations of the Mithridatic War, presumably at crippling expense.
But he always adapted those teachings for Roman law and Latin language. He was a carpet-chewing patriot. A good egg.

Collins will win by at least 15, probably about 20.
She won 2014 by 40. She won the worst GOP year evar in 2020 by 8.
She regularly out performs her polling by 15.
"Collins brings in the bacon, is independent, and Democrats are in disarray plus Platner," will be more than enough to convince the 40% registered independents to lean Republican.

My brother had to deal with that when he was a professor at Perdue. Had a stunning coed come up to him and offer him sex in exchange for a better grade. He is a moral man in a good marriage, so he rebuffed her, but even he admitted that it took a lot of personal strength to do so, as hot as she was.

Eh, depends, I hate manipulators and using sex to try to manipulate me made me cold as ice whether in business, academia, or military. And distance is your friend in such matters--clear delineation between personal and professional lives.

The Morning Report — 7/ 14 /26
Good morning kids. And so Senator Lindsey Graham has passed at for our time what is the not very old age of 71, I say that with all sincerity as a 66-year-old. In any case whatever one thought of Graham from a political standpoint (and the fact that his sister has been tapped to replace him gets my blood simmering vis a vis our venal and corrupted system, even more infuriating in that we're only 10 days past the 250th anniversary of the American revolution that was intended to start a government that was diametrically opposed to just this kind of corruption. But, be that as it may, the usual suspects are out in force reveling over Graham's demise and dancing on his grave with his body barely cold in the ground.
Cho shared a video where she said, “Bye, gurl” to the late senator, adding “good riddance.” She also mocked the notion that he might have been a closeted gay man in the process. “From the closet to the coffin. Real seamless.” The former is vile. The latter is precisely what one shouldn’t do to someone who wishes to keep his or her sexuality to themselves. Unless that person is a Republican, then all bets are off. Apparently. Not to be outdone, CNN contributor Michael Ian Black did his own dancing on Graham’s grave.Before the usual trolls and other drooling sub literate cretins point out our reactions when individuals like Jimmy Carter or Ted Kennedy died, while my reactions were for sure passionate and colorful, the meat of my look at their lives was strictly about their words and deeds and negative impact on our nation and society.
Back to Graham and reactions to his death, there's this:
The sudden and unexpected death of Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) has sent Iran’s Islamic regime into a fever spasm of bloodlust.And the difference between the Mulllahs and Margaret Cho and Cenk Uygur is, what exactly?!
Ynet News reported Sunday that “Iranian state media and supporters of the regime celebrated Sunday the sudden death of U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, a close ally of President Donald Trump, one of Israel’s strongest supporters in Congress and a sworn enemy of the Islamic Republic.”
One of those celebrations took place on “Iranian state television,” where “a presenter reported Graham’s death with a broad smile and a visibly satisfied expression. Another host said on air: ‘This news is so sweet that I’m reading it twice.’”
While we're on the subject of "Death to America" I give you this repulsive yet completely unsurprising story:
. . . The DSA states “our goal is to put workers in charge of the government through a new democratic constitution that establishes civil, political, and democratic rights for all, is based on proportional representation in a single federal legislature. With a government by, for, and of the working class and with powerful labor unions and social movements organizing in every city and town, we hope to build a socialist society.” That means abolishing the existing United States constitution and replacing it with something else, also eliminating the Senate and establishing unenumerated “civil, political, and democratic rights for all” in unstated ways.And so, how are we to preserve our nation, society and our lives in the face of this, short of resorting to the kind of tactics, that is violence, that they are oh so eager to visit upon us?! Well, back in 1968 Bill Ayers didn't even flinch when he declared that 25 million of us who could not or refused to be "re-educated" would have to be liquidated once he and his ilk took power. Should America somehow return to sanity and the move to embrace Socialim/communism fade away and die Please God, perhaps we can avoid having to visit on the Left what they so eagerly seek to do to us. If not, look out. Early medical appointments for me, so posting a bit early today. Have a good day,

They always say stuff like this. And it gives lie to their posturing about how empathic and caring and "Hate Has No Home Here" they are.
I myself struggle mightily and not always successfully with my feelings when one of theirs passes from this mortal coil. I try to say, "May God have mercy on his soul." But they don't struggle because they don't doubt their own sense of righteousness.

She worked with her brother and so she knows the staff and the office and by putting her in the position it deflects some political noise.

Gavin Newsom’s $12M diaper deal with Baby2Baby facing scrutiny by ethics watchdog
A government ethics watchdog is asking California’s state auditor to investigate a multimillion-dollar diaper deal championed by Gov. Gavin Newsom — alleging political favoritism and potential waste of taxpayer dollars.
Washington D.C.-based Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) asked State Auditor Grant Parks to probe California’s $6.2M no-bid contract with Baby2Baby, a nonprofit with ties to Newsom’s wife Jennifer Siebel Newsom, alleging the state may have skirted a typical competitive bidding process and concealed records about the free diaper deal.

Second, Sam Altman, the sociopath wrecking the reputation of AI singlehandedly (though getting help by the lunatics at Anthropic) is far worse than foreign competitors exploiting the gullibility and the near complete lack of critical thinking skills in the West.
Though China has played the long game. Conditioning a population through social media to "think" and make decisions in terms of hot-takes. A person can agree with "A" in an instant, then emotionally manipulated to hate "A" the next.

I think of this completely brazen, out-in-the-open sedition along with the words coming out of that maggot-faced Rashida Tlaib, and wonder why this incredible danger and treason is not being stopped immediately. First off, Tlaib should get 2 choices: leave this country and go back to her stinking Satan-soaked home country or drop her off into the open, shark-infested waters off the coasts of Australia. As for the others, raids, imprisonment for sedition and treason (for G*d's sake, they're admitting the sabotage they plan to do!) at the very, very least.

It was somewhere in the 2000's when I sat next to a guy on a plane trip to Houston. He worked for a company that was developing a machine that used 'ionic bombardment' against cancerous tumors. I remember him mentioning some cancer on the optic nerve that had a 96% death rate. This method turned it into a 92% survival rate.
Wife has a high school classmate that has developed some kind of eye cancer, so I decided to look that treatment up. After all these years, it never went anywhere in the US. There are some systems in Europe and they're just now building a treatment center and installing one in Florida, but it won't be available until next year.
Seems odd that something reportedly so successful took 25+ years to come to the US.
But, look what they've done to ivermectin.

UTC is the way. 14 States in the US (Nevada has a tiny slice in Mountain) are split across two time zones.
Unification is our Strength
China, India and Pakistan have proven that a single time zones works. (China spreads across five time zones)
UTC is as good as any other. Most digital watches have a UTC mode built in.

I really never understood this. I don't doubt that there may be some nefarious financial reasons they don't want a cure for those who are diagnosed with this awful disease...being the gargantuan cash cow it is. But wouldn't the treatments/cures also be cash cows? I mean, people that can be cured are still patients that would bring in their almighty, precious $haul. I guess I'm naive.

Why has he done nothing about the recent, major leaks that have increased the Left's attempts to sway the court via threat of violence and "protesting" their homes? Hasn't it been Kagan dragging her feet on controversial cases specifically so that conservative justices can be harassed/worn down into doing what the mob demands?
What's the point of demanding they fix the result without acknowledging the cause? I mean, why do we have SCOTUS justices demanding security NOW?

As I said, if his court's decisions had been just, and not politically charged, he'd not have to fear appearing in public. At least, he shouldn't. The left's penchant for violence is in part because the judiciary is on their side. Maybe he ought to address that.
But he, and others on the bench see fit to politicize decisions as a matter of personal opinion or "balance" decisions based not on law, or the Constitution, but on politics.
Fuck 'em all.

“Immediately after the contract was announced, there were public concerns over whether the contract was awarded in a fair and impartial manner and whether the state was overpaying for the diapers and the program was operated at an unreasonable cost,” Kendra Arnold, executive director of FACT, wrote in a letter to Parks.
“The facts relating to both of these issues should have been publicly available, but the Newsom administration has been misleading about whether the contract was awarded in a competitive process and and has mired the entire situation with a complete lack of transparency,” Arnold added.

The inside lane of time changes is the mythology of picking school kids up in the dark. Because of a lack of school bus drivers, there is usually two separate lifts to get students to school. The older kids first, then elementary student in the light.

Was at a seafood place in Myrtle Beach earlier this year when a couple elderly gentlemen came in. On was wearing a hat from a flight division back in either Vietnam or Korea era. The retired Marine struck up a convo and they shared a few things back and forth. The old guy made a joke where the punchline was something about Marines not being able to spell the word 'Marine' which took Gunny back a bit. "Wow....that's good. I've not heard that one before." They hugged and patted each other on the back.
It was quite awesome to experience.

The backlash they faced was from their fans, which were primarily Christian and military. During a European tour, they made disparaging comments about Bush, and interest in their music waned. The MSM tried to prop them up with puff pieces and tongue bath interviews, but the market for commie musicians is oversaturated.
During the BLM riots, they took "Dixie" out of their logo in an attempt to win back some relevance. They produced an album since then, from which I heard one song that was a screed against some guy. No one plays their earlier music. They've become a nonentity to their former fans, and a charity case to a cult that already discarded them for newer voices.

He was struggling and not able to finish strong from the heat and humidity, probably never experienced that ever before in his career. But more so, the English defenders were double teaming him the whole game, and they know his game well since he plays in the EPL. So coach decided to try something different to shake things up and get the match tied in the last 15 minutes.

I do! The plan was to insert Harris and have her run against Haley who the GOPe would have chosen as a "compromise" candidate. DeSantis had already mysteriously "suspended" his campaign (and it WAS mysterious, I was sure he had made some deal with Trump because going at the time he did made zero sense) leaving Haley in with far more delegates than himself.

I replaced a fridge recently purchased in 2016. Before replacing I called a repair guy to see if it was fixable. He said it is but the cost is 1/2 of the cost of a new fridge might as well get the new fridge. The part was something like $700 plus labor. And he said he was impressed I got 10 years out of it for modern fridges that’s a lot.

The Presidency can be Republican or Democratic. This means at least two Constitutions are necessary. Under a Republican President, executive orders can be negated by any judge, justice of the peace or county clerk in the country. Under a Democratic President, executive orders are damn near chiseled into the walls of the Supreme Court.
Both Houses of Congress can exist in five states, Super-majority Republican, Majority Republican, Tied, Majority Democratic, Super-majority Democratic. Different rules are required for each combination of states.
The Supreme court can be Conservative, Liberal or Tied. Different Rules for different states.
2 x 3 x 5 x 5 = 150. To work as the Democrats want, we will need 150 different Constitutions. QED

Here’s the short answer: not for most households.
While power factor correction is a legitimate concept used in industrial facilities to reduce waste, residential homes are billed only for real power (kWh), not reactive power. That means even if a device improves your home’s power factor slightly, it won’t change how much electricity you use or how much your electric company charges you.

From above, . . . The DSA states “our goal is to put workers in charge of the government through a new democratic constitution that establishes civil, political, and democratic rights for all, is based on proportional representation in a single federal legislature. With a government by, for, and of the working class and with powerful labor unions and social movements organizing in every city and town, we hope to build a socialist society.” That means abolishing the existing United States constitution and replacing it with something else, also eliminating the Senate and establishing unenumerated “civil, political, and democratic rights for all” in unstated ways.
A few things to think about, imo:
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) actively supports the Communications Workers of America (CWA) by mobilizing members for CWA-led strikes (such as the AT&T and Verizon actions), running joint phone banks for federal labor legislation like the PRO Act, and assisting with union elections.

---
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and the United Auto Workers (UAW) have built a strong strategic alliance, defined by aggressive labor militancy, coordinated strikes, and joint political action. This relationship is driven by a shared vision of a revitalized labor movement, class-struggle unionism, and mutual political backing.
Under UAW President Shawn Fain's leadership, the union has pivoted sharply to the left. In the 2026 election cycle, the UAW (notably Region 9A in New York) has actively joined forces with the DSA and Mayor Zohran Mamdani to back progressive, socialist candidates, helping secure major primary victories for DSA-aligned congressional candidates like Claire Valdez.

They’re held in loyalist neighborhoods – communities that strongly support the union with the United Kingdom – and often carry a political message, with effigies of the pope, the Republic of Ireland’s flag and other symbols of Catholicism and Irish nationalism being burned in the past.
But this year, in the village of Moygashel, County Tyrone, the flames found a new target.
A replica mosque, with a figure holding what appeared to be an ISIS flag and banners on the tower reading “Secure our borders” and “End the threat of radical Islam,” was burned on Thursday night.

The Jamey Carney murder: Can suspect be extradited? | Newstalk, Jul 14, 2026
Gardaí feel they are in a “race against time” to charge a man suspected of the murder of Jamey Carney, a journalist covering the case has said.
The American mother of one was found dead in her Killarney home last Tuesday.
Gardaí announced that her death was being treated as murder and said they hoped to speak to a man in his 20s who knew Ms Carney.
However, before Gardaí could question him, the suspect left Ireland for Turkey, where he travelled onto Jordan.
Since then, he has been arrested and detained by Jordanian police.
Colleen Gildernew, an extradition and criminal defence lawyer, joins Claire Byrne, and explains that extraditing the suspect from Jordan may prove to be difficult.

Last time attended one around here was at Eastern State Penitentiary in Philly with theatrics by the Bearded Ladies Cabaret.
There were stilt walkers, a singing baguette, a mock guillotining of Marie Antoinette, and Tasty Cake Krimpets thrown from the prison roof.
The Lump was furious with me - not his thing at all & maybe more so because of mobs of bathless drunks that were bumping into us - but he got me a Krimpet in midair anyway & with minimum effort.
That program ended with C19, and even the Lump looks back & laughs at how crazy it was.
Still love to visit Eastern State Pen. for it's programs.

- Big Three memory maker SK Hynix may achieve just one sixth of its planned increases in capacity by 2028. (WCCFTech)
How surprising that a company massively benefiting from a shortage is slow to resolve that shortage.
- SK Hynix is also planning to invest its new round of US share sales into, uh, South Korean government bonds. (WCCFTech)
I don't think they're convinced the shortage is here to stay.
- Meta is expanding its planned Hyperion AI supercluster in Louisiana to 5GW of capacity at a cost of $50 billion. (Tom's Hardware)
Meta has had many major wins with customers signing up for its AI services, such as, uh, nobody.

- Linux 7.2 may be dropping support for the Intel 80486, but it's getting fresh driver updates for the Sega Dreamcast. (Tom's Hardware)
Good to hear for everyone who wants to keep their dreams alive.
- If you don't have a Dreamcast, don't worry, you can run Linux on a Sega 32X. (GitHub)
No surprise; the 32X runs a Hitachi SH2 CPU, very similar to but much slower than the SH4 chip used in the Dreamcast.

Page and Brin published their research, along with Rajeev Motwani and Terry Winograd, as the PageRank algorithm ..
Eventually, they changed the name to Google; the name of the search engine was a misspelling of the word googol, a very large number written 10100 (1 followed by 100 zeros), picked to signify that the search engine was intended to search a large number of websites.

Overnight Open Thread [07/13/2026]
The American obsession with celebrity is becoming unhinged from reality. I think it is tremendously damaging to our culture, because the celebrities most worshiped are often vile human beings whose claim to fame is stuff like gangster rap, or even worse, insipid pop music! Artist sells out of trash collected from Taylor Swift's wedding. Yeah...she is an impressive businesswoman, but five years after she stops performing her music will be as popular as the hundreds of other bands that simply faded away. The obsession comes at the expense of paying attention to more worthy things. Yes, get off my lawn! Seriously, I understand that entertainment is an integral part of our world, but the caustic influence of amoral post-modern entertainers is not good for us as a society.
Don't ask me why these three are on my personal play list. I have no rhyme or reason for what goes on it. If I like the way a song sounds...even a little bit of it...I go for it. And why not? The worst thing that can happen is that I skip it.
I find heavy equipment operators to be amazingly impressive. They run multi-ton vehicles as if they were surgeons. And yes, I bitterly regret not becoming one. There are few concepts that have done more for Man than hydraulics. Imagine a world without it!
Somebody sent this to me and claimed it was how they manufacture American Cheese.

You could easily see that buffalo was agitated by his dust bath. At least the guy was not trying to pet him.
I have no empathy for the people who try to pet them, get a selfie with them, or dip what used to be their toes off the boardwalks into the pretty blue hot springs of Yellowstone.
Sometimes hiking in the mountains here you come upon a moose eating grass and flowers. We tend to move away quietly vs tourons who take photos.

A quiet day here with rain during a lot of it. We may have more early tomorrow morning, preventing me from working out. I could go to the mall to walk -- but I have a doctor's appointment (usual check-in, nothing Sirius) at 12:45, so the timing would be tight.
Wednesday does not look busy -- though I have to call the Fidelity people about that eternally-delayed check, and the IRS about my refund. Thursday I'll have the Buick's rear brakes done. Friday, a mall walk would be good.

He was somewhere in the big square states and off in the distance he saw a buffalo running down the highway directly at him. He slowed down but did not stop, figuring the buffalo would stop or swerve or something.
He did not. The buffalo hit the car head on, rolled over the top and hit the ground running.
The car was still running and seemed okay so my friend continued his trip. When he took it for the insurance claim they totalled it - because it looked fine, but had buckled the roof.

Around here we've had more school closing days due to black bears roaming around than we have had snow days. It's odd - the bears are pretty calm. Even if Momma bear has young cubs with her.

Cassini was in Saturn's shadow and the whole system is backlit. That's a very real image that looks almost unreal. Erf, Mars, and Venus are also in that image.

I'm pretty respectfully of animals. Lived in a few places in northern New England where bears and moose were common and taught and did commercial diving in the Caribbean where even dumber and toothier animals were ever present, particularly at night.
I'm too old to do stupid things now but I still like to see them. Crazy powerful animals.

What about... the beaver?
It likely saved Plymouth Plantation from a going-out-of-business sale.
You can't cultivate tobacco in Massachusetts, as Jamestown was doing in VA. The Pilgrims needed SOMETHING to trade for things they needed (plow blades & similar stuff), but couldn't make for themselves at the time.
Happily for William Bradford's progeny, they found something to export that the mother country really wanted: Beaver pelts.

Thanks for asking. I video-toured one property on Sunday; living room was way too small. Today I spotted one in the town across the Wabash River, a beauty of a place and in my price range . . . but from what I hear, that area floods. This house is fairly close to the river. I do not want to go from one flood-prone area to another.
I looked at the FEMA flood maps and couldn't make out what they were showing, but there have been news stories, one as recent as 2013, about floods after heavy rains.

Iran:
1) There are no moderates. That's a pipe dream, probably created by the IRGC .
2) Bombing radar sites and bass boats (albeit with machine guns) for the third night in a row hasn't made an impression.
3) Reinstating the oil embargo is good, but the IRGC is waiting A) for the election and B) for the new Congress to cut off funding for an unpopular war-- and it definitely IS unpopular. So..
4) Seize Kharg Island AND
5) Most importantly: publicly list 10 dams and power stations, & explain that we'll be destroying ONE of them every day. We did something quite similar with imperial Japan.

I don't think most have realized what is actually happening in Iran right now. For 50 years the Middle East has been torn between hating the Great Satan and of course Little Satan and pretended to care about Iran while allowing them to wreck havoc on the west and even their own interests while coddling the terrorist of the Muslim Brotherhood, most notably in "Palestine".
Whether you believe Trump's policies have done it or not, the entire Middle East is now united against Iran including duplicitous assholes in places like Qatar and making deals with Israel. The Arab street we are always told about might be angry but they are now angry at Iran. An aside from the tragic loss of a relatively small number of Americans we are pounding the shit out of Iran at will until they relent or we get tired of killing them and turning the country over to normal Iranians again.
New type of fighting instead of the failed type we've live through for 50 years. Have faith.

THE FUCK IS OVER: Donald Trump announced the return of the naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz and its subsequent administration under the control of the United States, which will impose a 20% tariff on shipments that cross the route to guarantee the maintenance of the protection.
"The Strait of Hormuz is OPEN and will continue to be, with or without Iran. We reestablish the IRANIAN BLOCKADE, so called because it only prevents the entry and exit of Iranian ships or customers. All other countries will have fair and open use of the strait.
The United States will be known as «THE GUARDIAN OF THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ», but as such, and as a matter of JUSTICE, it will receive a 20% refund on all cargo transported, for all costs necessary to guarantee the security of this area so volatile of the world.

The operator of the sunk excavator watched the recovery from a distance, from a place of concealment -- for a while. Unemployed, shunned, having lost the respect of other men, after he'd watched the masterful recovery operation long enough to get the gist of it, to see that he could never measure up, he quietly left. He crawled into a bottle that day, and didn't come back. He did not survive a year.

LOL. There will never be more than a handful even trying to come through Big Bend, it’s too rugged. If you wanted to do something, then set up outposts on the park roads going in and out (which I’m sure has been done)
A fun discovery recently in Big Bend showcased how remote and rarely visited much of it is. A researcher was exploring a rock cave and found an ancient hunting kit - a leather pouch with spear points, an atlatl, some stone tipped darts, a throwing stick, and a folded animal pelt next to it. They estimate that all of it had been sitting there untouched for at least 6,000 years.

Anyone can offer insurance, but it takes deep pockets and reputation of actually paying out to get the policies.
As it has been in the past, the USN has been policing the ocean to keep problems down, and London has been writing the policies and profiting.
This is just a change that the USA is now getting paid for what the USN always has been doing.
TLDR: the companies come to the US for the policies, not the other way around. No one stiffs Uncle Sam for long. We have battleships and can enforce liens on the high seas

"TAMPA, Fla. — U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) completed the latest wave of strikes against Iran at 10:15 p.m. ET on July 13.
During the five-hour mission, U.S. forces successfully struck military targets across Iran including Bushehr, Chah Bahar, Jask, Konarak, Abu Musa, and Bandar Abbas to further degrade Iran's ability to attack commercial shipping. CENTCOM forces employed precision munitions against Iranian coastal defense systems, missile and drone sites, and maritime capabilities.
More than 50,000 U.S. service members are currently deployed across the Middle East. American forces remain vigilant, lethal, and ready."

For decades, our international power has been projected by, for lack of a better term, the deep state. The intel community in the guise of things like USAID and NGOs but was in reality the CIA/State Department and related bureaucratic institutions and power brokers on the outside while elected officials worked under their orbit. Those days are over.
That was the biggest part of the DOGE and other efforts to start kneecapping those forces. It wasn't just about domestic power. We are returning to the time of a powerful chief executive with the full force of American military and equally important financial power is in his control and the entire decision structure of the world is changing.
The United States of America has been the most powerful and consequential power on the face of earth for generations. The only that has changed is we are finally asserting it. And the world is responding.

There is no question this was a miracle. Absolutely no question. My mind is still reeling over this.
The docs and nurses at the hospital thought she was gone, and advised me to well, "let nature take its course" I'll phrase it. But I said keep treating her for one more day, which was Sunday.
I had made peace, talked to friends and family, and even had the financial people to be prepared for all the would have to be done.
This morning I was going to go up there and do it, letting her go, but I was dragging my feet about it. And when I got there, there she was, sitting up in a chair in the room, having finished eating lunch. She saw me, smiled, and said she was starting to get lonely and was glad to see us.

There is always hope. Always. And let this be an example. No matter how bad things are, there is hope.
She looks like she went for a couple of rounds with Mike Tyson, absolute mess. But she's back.
The change is just amazing. Saturday night, she was lying there, completely out of her mind, flailing her arms and hands around, writhing in bed, trying to move her legs and squirm all over the beds. They had to sedate her. And it took a good bit. They were giving her stuff I would've normally objected to, but at that point, given her state of agitation, it had to be done.
Sunday, she was just laying there, completely out of it. I touched her, and she started trying to writhe and flail around. So, I didn't do that again. The nurses would have to touch her of course, but other that, I didn't want to trigger it.
And that was the state I left her in last night. And this this morning, a miracle.

Giving her blood thinners for the clots was a disaster, and that's what put her down this road. An emergency fasciotomy was needed on her left calf to save her for compartment syndrome due to the bleeding and hematoma. And I think, *think* mind you, the anesthesia for that is what threw her brain for a loop. This is *bad* for the elderly. Once you get close to 80, avoid if it all possible.

Comme nous nous inclinions quand ils sont passés
Et ils marchent pour le jour de la Bastille
La guillotine réclamera son prix sanglant
Chantez, ou chœurs de cacophonie
Eh bien, le roi s'est agenouillé pour laisser son royaume s'élever

Tout autour de nous, la colère brûle
Guider l'avenir par le passé
Il y a longtemps, le moule a été coulé
Car ils ont marché vers le jour de la Bastille
La guillotine a remporté son prix sanglant
Entendre les échos des siècles
Eh bien, le pouvoir n'est pas tout ce que l'argent achète

Pickup screen gasket. The pickup screen is attached to a crooked steel tube which is bolted to the bottom of the block just inside the pan rail, and right below the oil pump. There is a thick metal flange brazed to the tube, with a single 1/4-20 screw to retain the assembly to the block. About 1/4" of the tube goes into the large passage on the block that feeds the oil pump, and a thin paper gasket makes the seal. Used on the Champion series engines since 1939. Never been a problem area. Somebody used a round fiber washer, like an oil pan drain plug washer, instead of the paper gasket. Washer in excess of 1/16" thick. And really reefed down on that poor little 1/4-20 screw. Well, that had the effect of cocking the pickup tube in the bore, and putting fierce pressure on one side of the washer, and practically none on the other. So the oil pump began sucking air.

And in another miracle, I was able to fix the Microsoft mess up, too. I avoid "Microsoft accounts" like the plague. They made extended security updates for Windows 10 free until Oct. 2027, and I "enrolled" in that.
Only problem is, you have to have a MS account to do that, it's in the fine print, and so it just happily switched my main local account to that. I was afraid it was hosed, and no way to convert back to the local account. But, and don't ask me how, I got it back with no hiccups (yet). My main account on this machine is back to local status.

yeah I know the setup you're talking about. I saw similar things in other engines. I'm surprised there's only one bolt holding it in. I guess the tube protruding into the passage keeps it from swinging around.

Exactly. If it were up to me , it would have a diamond-shaped flange, with two studs, and hex nuts to retain it, and the hole in the block would be counterbored to hold an O-ring. But I guess O-rings were not commonplace in 1939. And the paper gasket worked for 25 years, so why change it? One comes in every gasket set.

I was shocked the first time I came across that too. I all WTF? One bolt? Where is the safety factor? What idiot came up with this? When you see them in new engines it's got 3 or 4 matchmarks on it. Couldn't just add another bolt!

He's not standoffish as much as he's simply an *outdoor-loving* cat. Dude loves the rubbys! Just doesn't like to stay indoors unless it's cold or stormy or... extremely hot.
Once it's above freezing, he rarely comes in except for treats.
It's so funny how he wiggles to get *just right* while flat on his back, and then conks out. And then those little twitches, LOL.

Well, it looks weak, but it has not been historically a failure-prone part. The pickup assembly weighs maybe 4 ounces, and being immersed in oil at the bottom probably damps out any vibrations. And if the screw did break, you would get instant zero oil pressure, and a smart operator, or an ECM would shut down the engine right away, before any damage could result.

As long as it isn't my customers. I worked on a bike last week. I start it, the oil light is staying on. I call the dude. I asked if the light has been on since he put the bike together. He says yeah. I said and you didn't think this was an issue? Did you check to see if it actually has oil pressure? He says well the oil tank felt warm. Uh, its behind the rear cylinder it might eventually get warm. I pulled the oil pressure sending unit and started it. It had pressure, so I changed the switch and the light went out. Frigging dude is driving the bike around not actually knowing if it actually had oil pressure. I had another dude who had his light come on, he hears a noise, noise goes away, but the light stayed on. He drives it 80 miles. Motor was toast.

Thing on this one is that Trump brought it forward and linked to it, therefore Trump doesn't disagree. He's chumming the water.
On the 8th Trump suggested that all illegals should be deported. This is an escalation.

Thats easy. There was probably a leak in the lower gasket. Its a 3 piece rocker box. the lower section holds the rockers, then there is a middle ring, then the top cover. The top cover holds the middle ring in place. There was probably a leak in the lower section where it bolts to the head. Thats where they always leak. The gasket gets brittle and poof, you got a leak. The newer gaskets are much better. I just had to do one of mine on the bike I got last month. Whoever did the upgrades did an excellent job, but used a shitty brand gasket and it crumbled like a potato chip and started leaking. Same deal with the tour bike I got 2 years ago. An even shittier gasket on that bike. When you're ready I can walk you through it.

But he never mentioned recurrence of the leak. Maybe he got yang poon gasket set, way back when?

Oh yeah, there were a lot of shit gaskets back then. there were a few companies making them and they were shit. James were good, harley were good, well as good as it was for the time. Then they started making the beaded gaskets, they were very good, but still over a long period of time they could get brittle. Finally they started making a thin rubber coated metal with the bead. Those are great, they don't get brittle. If he got yang poon gaskets they would last a couple years. Some american gaskets were yang poon. The white one and the greyish ones were crap. Even the beaded ones they made were shit. Harley and james were always better than anything else that was out there.

It started in one of the harley shops I work out of. One of the dudes there was working on an engine and a shit part in the engine that obviously wasn't working. He was yelling "fucking yang poon". I looked over and said whats up, he holds the part out and says yang poon. I knew immediately, some taiwan piece of crap. There is a distributor called V-twin that sells a lot of that crap. We started calling it V-Chin. Now its yang poon. All chinese parts are Yang Poon.

1200 sportsters from that era in nice shape are 3-4K average. Apart you would be lucky to see 2K, because there are clean 883 sportsters out there for 2K. There are 2 on market place right now. For less than $100 in gaskets it would be worth putting it together. Like I said, I can walk you through it.

View of Saturn's rings from inside the rings,
from the Cassini probe.
This is actually an artist's conception, not a
genuine photograph. But it's pretty cool.
Walruses are out of control. This is why some call them, "The Bears of the Sea." Foxes having fun on a slide. Water spout coming ashore in Myrtle, SC. Cat vs. Cobra. (Don't worry, the cobra slinks away.)
These princesses save themselves! Hidden door to a lost dwarven kingdom discovered in Khazakistan? (Which sounds suspiciously like Khazad-Dum.) Neat architectural illusion.
A raccoon got its head suck in a storm drain.
Firefighters in Rostraver Township, Pennsylvania, deployed a 'jaws of life' powerful hydraulic tool after other methods failed to help the critter. Before responders arrived, a local resident tried to free the raccoon using water and dish soap. "They tried a few of those things, but nothing ultimately worked," Rostraver Township Police Chief Scott Sokol told The Mon Valley Independent. After removing the storm grate with the raccoon still trapped inside, the fire crew was able to cut away just enough metal to free the animal. The raccoon was pictured scurrying back to nearby trees after its ordeal. Rostraver Township Fire Department said they were able to "free the animal back to its natural habitat."

A raccoon once climbed my high pitch 3 story house, went down the chimney to the basement, climbed the stairs, opened the cabinet under my sink in the kitchen, and rummaged through the waste bin. Took the same way out.
This went on for a number of days till I caught him in the act and fired 7 .22 bullets into him, without obvious effect, while chasing him down to the fireplace downstairs where he was trying to get out. He turned and screeched at me.
I went out, reloaded and went back into the room; he had somehow climbed the wall and was between the floorboards, bleeding, where I unloaded on him again, closing the door behind until he dropped. Then waited some more.
Tough little bastard.
Then there's the carp I shot bowfishing and couldn't unscrew
the arrow head so I pulled it out, along with a trail of guts.
It flopped around, made it back to the water and swam away.

Do you think the 60% increase of schizophrenia diagnosis with individuals age 14 to 20 relates to "transgenderism" in any way?
________
After a three paragraph lecture on putting quotes around "transgenderism" we got down to it. I claim the win because AI kept using non-sequiturs to justify their answers, including describing "transgenderism" as a psychological distress where the interal feeling of the individual doesn't match their sex at birth. I pointed out that to be a mental illness and told it to prove me wrong. That's when I got the ole' "well, the medical community has come to the conclusion that attempting to treat the individual medically has not been successful" and used that to justify that it wasn't a mental illness (non-sequitur/ faulty logic). I asked (innocently)...is that the only time the medial community has ever failed?
That's when AI gave up and game me the sex dysphoria speech. To which I noted that fancy words don't change facts. Debating AI is fun. Give it a try sometime.

John R. Lott Jr.: Numbers Don't Lie. Trump's Deportation of Foreign Invaders Is Slashing Violent Crime
Really? You mean there's some connection between incapacitating criminals and reducing crime?
Amazing.A Mexican illegal deported three times just killed a six year old girl after running a stop sign.
The United States has two primary measures of violent crime. The FBI tracks crimes reported to police. The Bureau of Justice Statistics' National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) estimates both reported and unreported crime. Researchers have known for decades that most crimes never reach the police. Victims report only about 40 percent of violent crimes and roughly 30 percent of property crimes. The media focuses almost exclusively on FBI crime data. Before 2020, FBI data and the NCVS generally moved in the same direction. During the Biden administration, however, they sharply diverged. While reported violent crime fell by about 8 percent, total felony violent crime measured by the NCVS surged 59 percent -- the largest four-year percentage increase since the survey began more than five decades ago. Several factors explain that gap. Whether victims report crimes depends heavily on whether they believe police will catch and punish offenders. As cities reduced police staffing through budget cuts, retirements, and, in some places, "defund the police" policies, arrest rates declined. Lower arrest rates gave victims less reason to report crimes. Some police departments also made reporting more difficult. In some jurisdictions, 911 operators asked whether the offender was still at the scene. If the answer was no -- as it almost always was -- they instructed victims to visit a police station later to file a report. Simply calling 911 does not place a crime in the FBI's statistics; an officer must complete an official report. When governments make reporting more burdensome, some victims understandably decide it isn't worth the effort. Fortunately, many of those policies have been reversed. Although reported crime has declined, we will not know whether total crime also fell in 2025 until the Bureau of Justice Statistics releases the next NCVS this September. ...
FBI arrests surged in 2025, rising 184 percent over 2024 levels. Total FBI arrests -- a broader category that includes many joint operations with state and local agencies -- increased by 197 percent. ... Across the country, President Trump's U.S. attorneys have also pursued criminals far more aggressively than their predecessors. In Washington, D.C., for example, the Biden administration's U.S. Attorney declined to prosecute 67 percent of those arrested. Under U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro, that figure has fallen to just 4 percent.
An illegal immigrant from Mexico with multiple deportations was driving with a revoked license when he collided with a vehicle and allegedly killed a 6-year-old North Carolina girl last week, authorities said. Jaime Santiago Corona was driving a Dodge Ram pickup truck July 3 when he failed to stop at a stop sign and struck an SUV driven by 35‑year‑old Kelli Toler, who was traveling with her two children in Pitt County, the North Carolina State Highway Patrol said. Toler and her 4‑year‑old child were transported to ECU Health Greenville with serious injuries. Toler's 6‑year‑old daughter, Calli Toler, was pronounced dead at the crash site. An online fundraiser for the Toler family said the three were on their way to get lunch before going to a swimming pool when the collision happened. "This monster caused a car crash that killed a 6-year-old girl and injured a mother and a 4-year-old," said Department of Homeland Security (DHS) acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis.
Did this illegal alien deliver Cultural Enrichment in excess of the pain, misery, and death he caused? I want to see the tally. I want to see the proof that we came out ahead on this deal, Cultural-Enrichment-wise. Very much related: A woke American woman living in Ireland decided to marry a migrant Muslim she met at a pro-Hamas rally.
Surprise! He murdered her.
The migrant boyfriend suspected of murdering a New York mom at her home in Ireland allegedly asked her for a bunch of money just a week before her death. Jamey Carney, 43, had told a pal that her beau, Ahmad Al-Saqar, sought the equivalent of around $5,700 about a week before her murder at her house in Killarney, the Irish Independent reported. Al-Saqar is now wanted for questioning by authorities in connection with the murder of Carney, who is believed to have been beaten and then suffocated in her bed early Tuesday. Al-Saqar, an asylum-seeker from Jordan, is feared to have fled to the Middle East in the hours after her death. Authorities are examining the victim's phone calls and texts as well as her social-media accounts and bank statements as part of their probe. Carney, who was originally from tony Westchester County outside of New York City, moved with her young daughter to Ireland in May 2021. She is believed to have met Al-Saqar at a pro-Palestine rally in Killarney about 18 months ago and frequently shared pictures of the pair on social media. He told friends that he and Carney had taken part in a religious marriage ceremony earlier this year and were wed in the Islamic faith, former roommate Husam Salha told the Irish Independent. Al-Saqar posted a video online around that time with the words, "My bride and my princess," showing Carney wearing a ring on his TikTok. "Al-Saqar said they had gone to the mosque and accepted to be husband and wife," Salha said. "In Islam, when you get married, you have to let all the people know that you are husband and wife," he said.

"Her comments also come soon after the Mexican president announced that her government would be taking legal action against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in connection with the deaths of migrants in detention centers and during raids."
You know, if the Mexican gov't is claiming such responsibility for its nationals illegally in the U.S., then it cuts both ways. If it has standing to sue on their behalf, then it can also be sued for compensation for all the many, many expenses that they have foisted on the American public.

Oakland is the most extreme example of this. Police will NOT respond to property crimes, neither immediately nor ever. Endless discussions on forums from Oakland residents describing how their house was burgled, they called 911, and the only reaction they got from the operator was, "File a report online." Muggings? Don't care. "Did he injure you?" "Well, no, but he pointed a gun at me and stole my purse." "File a report online." Catalytic converters taken? Car broken into? Shoplifting? Don't even bother to file a report online.
As a result, most people don't even bother calling 911 anymore. That's the reality in Oakland.

True. Several major outlets reported on the unsettling intersection of the 2026 FIFA World Cup and ongoing sexual assault cases.
France’s captain, Kylian Mbappé, was briefly linked to a sexual assault investigation in Sweden. However, Swedish prosecution authorities officially closed the inquiry due to a lack of sufficient evidence, clearing him of wrongdoing.
The prominent legal cases that have drawn criticism during the tournament involve players from other national teams, including:
Achraf Hakimi (Morocco)
Thomas Partey (Ghana)
Ryan Mendes (Cape Verde)

In part,
Ireland does not have an extradition treaty with Jordan, where the man is being detained, according to the Irish Independent.
The man at the center of the case had reportedly been refused asylum in Ireland but remained in the country while appealing that decision before the murder took place.
He still possessed his passport, allowing him to leave Ireland before Carney’s body was discovered, according to the Irish Mirror.
---
Also, The Irish Independent reported the man had expressed a desire to relocate to the United States and had told acquaintances Carney was helping him pursue U.S. residency. Investigators now believe the Jordanian national was with Carney on Monday evening, the night she was fatally assaulted.
It was always access to the U.S.

Quick Hits
FaceBook's co-founder bankrolled an activist effort to drive up the price of eggs and bacon.
And he's meanwhile a major investor in Impossible Foods -- the company trying to make non-meat meatlike substance.Mexico's president offers an excuse as to why she refuses to oppose the cartels. She claims it's all Biden's fault, which appeals to me, but the trouble is, she's a cartel whore. It's not just Biden's fault. She's on the cartel payroll.
Dustin Moskovitz, the billionaire co-founder of Facebook and enterprise software company Asana, has talked openly about how he likes to eat meat. But in a curious twist, the lefty Democratic megadonor has poured nearly a half-billion dollars into activist campaigns that have made it harder to run animal farms and contributed to the rising cost of eggs and meat for millions of American consumers -- all while one of Moskovitz's foundations holds a nearly $89 million stake in plant-based company Impossible Foods -- meaning it could benefit if pricier meat pushes more consumers toward meat alternatives, The California Post has learned. The money trail runs through two closely linked entities of Moskovitz's philanthropic empire: Coefficient Giving -- the nonprofit formerly known as Open Philanthropy -- and Good Ventures, the private foundation run by Moskovitz and his wife, former journalist Cari Tuna. On paper, Coefficient Giving says its mission is simple: reduce suffering on factory farms. Since 2016, the nonprofit has handed out more than $480 million toward that cause. But farmers and industry insiders told The Post the operation amounts to a well-funded pressure campaign, bankrolling activist groups, ballot measures, corporate pressure tactics, lawsuits and media projects that they say have helped drive up the cost of meat, eggs and pork for everyday Americans. Hannah Thompson-Weeman, president and CEO of the Animal Agriculture Alliance, told The Post that consumers often picture animal-rights activism as a loose network of shaggy volunteers with protest signs. That image, she said, badly understates the sophistication and funding behind the movement, which combined with inflation is the reason many grocery shoppers are suffering from post-traumatic sticker shock.
The News Professionals at CNN did a story about Republicans demanding that Mitch McConnell update the public about his medical status. They didn't have enough Republicans for a proper "Republicans in Disarray" storyline, so they
Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum is blaming Biden-era policies of the United States government for having helped set off the fierce turf war that followed. The turf war erupted after the split between the two main factions of the Sinaloa Cartel following the arrest of the fearsome cartel boss Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada. During her morning news conferences, Sheinbaum claimed that if the Biden administration had shared information with Mexican authorities and let them carry out the arrest, the cartel would not have split, and the violence spreading through Mexico would not have happened. The comments come at a time when tensions are high with the United States over Sheinbaum's refusal to fight cartels. Her comments also come soon after the Mexican president announced that her government would be taking legal action against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in connection with the deaths of migrants in detention centers and during raids. ... The issue comes at a time when the Trump administration has been pressuring Sheinbaum to eradicate drug cartels, leading to heightened tensions between the two governments. Recently, the U.S. Department of Justice delivered a heavy blow to Sheinbaum's credibility when it announced a criminal indictment against Sinaloa's Governor Ruben Rocha Moya and nine of his closest officials, who were the heads of the state law enforcement apparatus. As Breitbart Texas has reported, rather than help with the arrests and extraditions, Sheinbaum has used the claim of national sovereignty to refuse U.S. help in fighting cartels and has publicly defended Rocha Moya, who is from the same political party, claiming that there is no proof of wrongdoing on his part. Federal prosecutors in the United States claim that Rocha Moya worked with Los Chapitos, providing them with protection in exchange for bribes and political support.
invented one, "Jack Kimble." You know -- Senator Jack Kimble.
How disconnected from your "job" as "newspeople" do you have to be to not realize Jack Kimble is a made-up name? Did no one at CNN realize, "Gee, I never heard that name before and as someone paid to watch the news hour-by-hour, I probably should have heard that name before, if it were real"? Not to be outdone, Washington Post "reporters" deliberately falsified a Trump quote to stir up a dispute between Trump, whom they hate and want to see dead, and Israel, which they hate and wish to see eradicated by Muslim terrorists.
During a segment concerning speculations on the health of Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., CNN included a quote from a fake congressman. During the segment, host Audie Cornish said that many Senate Republicans have said they've talked to McConnell. As Cornish spoke, quotes from Republicans flashed on the screen, the Daily Wire reported. These included statements from Senate Majority Leader John Thune of South Dakota and Majority Whip John Barrasso of North Dakota. A fourth statement was attributed to Rep. Jack Kimble, which is a parody account. No such congressman serves in the House. "I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He's still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 45 minutes. He's so sharp. Just like always he let me do all of the talking. He's a great listener. After that we prayed silently for awhile and had a staring contest. Just like always, he beat me. I told him we want to see him back at work as soon as possible."" the fake congressman's statement read.
Hudson and Nakashima effectively doctored a quote, cutting out separate parts and mashing them together to create a Frankenstein's Monster quote.
The report portrays the United States as having to restrain an out-of-control Israel.... But a key piece of evidence is, in fact, a doctored quote. The authors claim:Trump did, indeed, utter those words, but not together. The authors spliced together two sentences uttered by President Trump in response to two separate questions as if they were part of one cohesive statement. Worse, they omit words in between that entirely contradicted the narrative they advanced. Here's what President Trump actually said. In response to a question as to who Steve Witkoff, the administration's special envoy, was talking to in Iran, President Trump responded:
In March, President Donald Trump suggested publicly that Israel's assassination campaign was complicating efforts to negotiate with the regime. "You know it's a little tough," he told reporters at the time. "They've wiped out everybody. I don't want them to be killed.''In an apparent attempt to falsify the quote to suggest President Trump was talking only about Israel, The Washington Post omitted the words "we've wiped out" from the middle of the first sentence. Rather than showing American frustration with Israel, the full sentence suggests U.S. and Israeli interests were aligned. The authors then portray the second sentence, "I don't want them to be killed," as if it was uttered immediately after the first (clipped) sentence. In fact, that remark came in response to a different question that came after another entire question and answer exchange. After answering a question about the status of the Iranian supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, Trump was then asked whether he could say where the discussions are taking place. The president responded:
A top -- a top person. Don't forget, we've wiped out the leadership phase one, phase two, and largely phase three. But we're dealing with a man who I believe is the most respected and the leader. You know, it's a little tough. They've wiped out -- we've wiped out everybody.
I can't. I can't, because I don't want them to be killed. OK? I don't want them to be killed.

Go out in public. Be around lots of people. In confined spaces. For hours and hours.

Focus on the person who knew he would be alone when he returned home. That is where it happened. No witnesses and someone 45 minutes away to make the 911 call after the killer departed."
I can't tell if he's implying Graham got back to DC from his trip, had a strange visitor or hired a rent boy, and the rent boy did something to mimic a heart attack. But drinking polonium tea poison when he was in Ukraine might still be my current favorite.
Like I said earlier, unless there's proof, Occam's Razor is probably right in Graham's case. Mitch, on the other hand...

A massive amount of feminist lunacy is explainable by pure jealousy. Rush (RIP) used to say that feminism was designed by ugly women to punish pretty ones, and that's never been more true. That homely overfed Welsh bint wants to have girls wear shapeless sacks so that the hot chick are pulled down to her level.
This is also why feminists were fine with dudes waving their junk in the locker room - the fit, athletic girls were the ones being hurt, not the fat ones whose biggest source of cardio is pushing a cart full of box wine on sale.

Someone had a bunch of cartoony upside-down pineapples on their state room door. I've heard this is a signal that one is open to swinging. The pineapples had captions like, "If you know you know" and "Let the good times roll."
But there were mixed messages. Another sign said something like, "We're not swingers, we just really love pineapples."
I didn't care either way, I just thought it was funny.
It became even funnier when I heard that cabin got a visit from security. They gave the people a lecture about safety and took down all of the pineapple signs.

One of the best weird sci-fi movies I saw recently was "Landscape with Invisible Hand." Non-aggressive aliens taking over Earth and turning them into serfs. They made a food-substitute food, and the production design team did a great job of making the gelatinous cubed food look realistically unappealing. The family has a lucky break one night, and has enough money to buy real steak for dinner! It's a huge deal.
This is the ACTUAL life the left wants for us, this movie, just with aliens as the overlords instead. I'm sure the book/movie creators think this story is 100% anti-capitalism, but there's an honesty within their message about all elites that rises above that, is non-partisan.
Anyway, the movie was beautiful, quirky, and weird in a good way. I liked that the main character was a painter, and they used his paintings as a framing device for the various "chapters" of the movie. I want to read the original novel the movie was based on.

Child, the younger, graduated college seven months ago. They are employed, they are living in their own apartment, with their own love interest, and it is time for them to not be on my automobile insurance. No problem. They chose an insurance company and purchased a policy, to start on the day I told them to have it start.
Now I inform my insurance company. Problem. They want to talk to child to see if they can get their business. I indicate that I'll forward on email and, if they're interested, they'll contact. Insurance company says that they have to contact before they can be removed from the policy. WTF?
Insurance company says that they have to very that child has insurance before they can drop them from the policy. I felt like asking if I refused to pay my premium would they ensure that I had another policy before they canceled mine?

This. If the insurance company drops someone from a policy, and that person gets into an accident without insurance, it’s a huge clusterfuck and that person will almost certainly claim “I never dropped that policy.” Company needs a record of that person saying affirmatively that they’re dropping the policy.

A government ethics watchdog is asking California’s state auditor to investigate a multimillion-dollar diaper deal championed by Gov. Gavin Newsom — alleging political favoritism and potential waste of taxpayer dollars.
Washington D.C.-based Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) asked State Auditor Grant Parks to probe California’s $6.2M no-bid contract with Baby2Baby, a nonprofit with ties to Newsom’s wife Jennifer Siebel Newsom, alleging the state may have skirted a typical competitive bidding process and concealed records about the free diaper deal.

"CNBC’s ranking of the 10 worst states to live in 2026—all of them Republican-led—has drawn criticism from conservatives.
The broadcaster gave each state a Quality of Life score based on factors including crime rates, air quality, healthcare access, worker protections and civil rights laws. The Quality of Life category was one of 10 in the outlet’s annual America’s Top States for Business study.
Tennessee was ranked the worst state to live in after receiving a score of just 64 out of 290.
CNBC noted that Tennessee had one of the highest violent-crime rates in the nation, citing FBI statistics, as well as the third-highest drug-death rate.
CNBC’s bottom 10 states for quality of life, from lowest-scoring upward, were:
Tennessee (64 out of 290)
Texas (7
Indiana (82)
Louisiana (89)
Georgia (89)
Utah (95)
Missouri (9
Alabama (99)
Oklahoma (103)
Arkansas (103)"

Graham compiled a distinguished record in the United States Air Force as he logged six-and-a-half years of service on active duty as an Air Force lawyer. From 1984-1988, he was assigned overseas and served at Rhein-Main Air Force Base in Germany.
Upon leaving active duty Air Force in 1989, Graham joined the South Carolina Air National Guard where he served until 1995. During the first Gulf War in the early 90's, Graham was called to active duty and served state-side at McEntire Air National Guard Base as Staff Judge Advocate where he prepared members for deployment to the Gulf region.
In 1995, Graham joined the U.S. Air Force Reserves. During American military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, Graham put his experience in military law to use pulling numerous short-term Reserve duties in both countries over congressional breaks and holidays.
Graham retired from the Air Force Reserves in June 2015 having served his country in uniform for 33 years. He retired at the rank of Colonel.

Humiliated by His Fawning Over a Nazi Rapist, Ro Khanna Tries to Change the Subject By Trying to Force His Way Past an Israeli Checkpoint and Then Crying "Jews Are Abusing a Brown Man!" When They Stop Him (for Ninety Minutes, to Check IDs)
Ro Khanna's absurd idea that he can be president took a big hit when his Rapist Wingman Graham Platner was forced to withdraw.
So he's begging for attention from the Nazi left:Bonchie
@bonchieredstate Ro Khanna backed a Nazi tattooed rapist after he was credibly accused of domestic abuse. To distract from that, he ran to Israel to enter a government restricted area and stage a PR stunt. If you're falling for this, you're an idiot. And apparently, lots of idiots exist.
He admits that he knew he was trying to force his way past the checkpoint of a "restricted military area" -- but played the Don't You Know Who I Am? card anyway.
Dan The Zionist!His only defense of his actions is that other Congressmen have gotten into that area before. Yes, this Fox newsreader points out -- after first clearing it with the government of Israel, which Ro Khanna didn't do, because he wanted a staged confrontation because his campaign for president is failing ludicrously and he wants to court the leftwing Nazi vote.
@DanTheZionist Jul 12 Ro Khanna's driver intentionally triggered a Security First Response Team. Israeli Gedaliah Blum explains the tricks that Ro Khanna used to stage a performance. Ro Khanna was traveling in Judea and Samaria, which are also known as the West Bank. The Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria have experienced many terrorist attacks. So, there are First Response Teams of community guards who monitor for suspicious activity. These teams are governed by laws and work with safety measures, and they coordinate with the Israeli army. Shabbat is Saturday. On Shabbat, people living in Jewish communities do not drive. On Shabbat, Ro Khanna's team drove off the road, which was already very suspicious. The strange activity of Ro Khanna's vehicle triggered the First Response Team. So, the team checked the vehicles. Ro Khanna did not tell anyone he was going to be in the area. He was not traveling in a way that identified him as a congressman, he was not in a government marked vehicle. The First Responder Team checked for his identity. Specifically, because Ro Khanna did not tell anyone he would be in the area, it took about ninety minutes to confirm his identity with the Israeli army. After he was safely identified, he was allowed to continue on his way. Afterwards, Ro Khanna described this security check as being held hostage by wild settlers, which is total nonsense. Ro Khanna is a liar.
Israeli settlers, brandishing American made M4s, detained me & other Americans on my trip to Palestine.
— Ro Khanna (@RoKhanna) July 11, 2026
When the IDF arrived, they sided with the settlers & continued our detention.
They made a huge mistake.
You will be hearing more soon. https://t.co/rZw8bRAn64 pic.twitter.com/4z50Ye4I7K
🚨 NEW: Fox News CALLS OUT Ro Khanna for his story on being detained in the West Bank:
— TV News Now (@TVNewsNow) July 13, 2026
FOX: You didn't know that entering a restricted military area would get you stopped?
KHANNA: American Congresspeople have been there before.
FOX: With prior coordination.…

@RNCResearch
Ro Khanna compares the IDF to "Jim Crow" after trespassing in the West Bank: "You have a police force and the IDF that is aligned by extremist settlers in the same way [that] in Jim Crow during the segregationist south, police were often aligned with the segregationists."
According to a source for the New York Post, Ro Khanna was invited to meet freed hostages and survivors of October 7th.

Khanna's team didn't even bother to respond.
His team was also offered an opportunity to meet with Druze civilians in the Golan Heights and a briefing on how… pic.twitter.com/4Afj0FsVrg
Ro Khanna, Graham Platner's most stalwart defender, funded a Platner rally from his own campaign funds after the physical abuse allegations emerged. Now that Platner is an accused rapist, Khanna is desperately trying to change the subject with—you guessed it—Israel! https://t.co/5oSpdahO69
— Batya Ungar-Sargon (@bungarsargon) July 13, 2026
LEITER: Now, in terms of Ro Khanna, we reached out to him when we heard he was going to Israel, the Israeli embassy here in Washington. As all congressmen do, they coordinate their trip with the Israeli government. We suggested he visit with- with survivors of the October 7th massacre. That he visit the borders, so he understands the, the issues that we have in our borders and so on. He ignored that and he decided to coordinate his trip not with Israel, but with Palestinian activists and with J Street, which is a anti-government, anti-Israeli government advocacy group here in Washington. So you know he coordinated-- BRENNAN: It's a Jewish lobby group... LEITER: Well, it's-- BRENNAN: ...that is supportive of a different path for Israel. LEITER: Yeah, yeah. I- I play tennis once a year. That doesn't make me a tennis player. The fact that they call themselves a Jewish organization is- is irrelevant. They're- they're- an advocacy group against the government of Israel. That has to be clear. BRENNAN: The current government, Netanyahu government. LEITER: Yes. Yes-- BRENNAN: That's what you mean, the government you work for. LEITER: And Congressman Khanna, there has been no secret about his antipathy towards the government of Israel as well. So perhaps if he would have coordinated the trip- and then you know to have this incident on Wednesday and wait to release it on Saturday, maybe this had more something to do with his support of- of Graham Platner beforehand and the difficulties he had with that, and trying to shift the focus to something else. Perhaps I'm asking a question. BRENNAN: Well, we did hear from Congressman Khanna, who said that there was an alert to the embassy on his behalf, and that they asked for the news...

I've heard the rumor that Ukraine will let folks anywhere earn extra cash piloting their drones.
IDK, I've no strong feelings for either side.
But if someone opened up the contract to hunt Hamas with drones?
I'd be farming kills like Cartman and the boys when they got addicted to WoW.

Chuck Schumer immediately rushed to the nearest CNN microphone and has called for the impeachment of Trump.

We need AOC to win but I would prefer both run as well. They can consolidate support on the debate stage
Ro actually does not have a very progressive voting record compared to AOC or some Democrats who *aren't* DSA according to vote trackers
Yeah. I feel like people forget...Ro is Silicon Valley’s congressperson, and a millionaire (billionaire?) himself.
Ro is a rich guy beholden to rich capitalists. Which is concerning in where his loyalties lie as well as electorally. Steyer has kinda shown that the whole class traitor thing is a dead end. That said I would love to see Ro as speaker of the house.
AOC's also a moderate liberal, and not really what we need to represent DSA politics. We should focus locally, rather than a silly national contest we are not ready for.
A dsa endorsement of Aoc would irreparably harm the organization. Shes an establishment DNC Democrat who campaigned for a Zionist
how could we support Ro Khanna when he has said he supports capitalism, referring to himself as a "progressive capitalist"? what are we talking about here?

2) There is no people that deserve a genocide more, none more than them.

The wealthy area of the West Bank frequently compared to Beverly Hills is the Palestinian town of Turmus Ayya.
Located in the central West Bank, approximately 20 kilometers north of Ramallah, the town is renowned for its diaspora-funded prosperity. Many of its residents are Palestinian-Americans who spent decades working and building wealth in the United States and Latin America before returning or investing in the area.
The town—sometimes called the "Eastern suburb of Washington, D.C."—is dotted with large, luxurious red-tiled villas, manicured gardens, and swimming pools, which has prompted regional and international media to compare its affluent aesthetic to California enclaves like Beverly Hills or the Hollywood Hills.

He knows what he's doing being provocative regarding Israel. The question is, for whom? Himself, Kamala Harris, O?
Representative Ro Khanna served in the Obama administration as the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the United States Department of Commerce. A longtime supporter, he first walked precincts for Obama's 1996 Illinois Senate campaign.

Pacemaker surgery is a minimally invasive procedure taking 1 to 2 hours. A cardiologist places the device under local anesthesia with sedation. A 2-inch incision is made near the collarbone, thin wires (leads) are guided through a vein to the heart, and the pulse generator is tucked into a skin pocket.
The most common is the transvenous approach. For leadless pacemakers, a catheter is used to secure the device directly inside the heart.
Most patients stay overnight for 24 hours to monitor the device and incision site.
You will need to restrict lifting your arm (on the implanted side) above your shoulder for a few weeks to prevent wires from dislodging. Full recovery and return to normal activity usually take about six weeks.
Complications are rare but can include infection, bleeding, lung injury, or device malfunction.
Trusted Medical Resources for deeper dives into what to expect before, during, and after your implant, refer to these authoritative guides: Read the Mayo Clinic Pacemaker Overview for comprehensive facts on the surgery.
Visit the American Heart Association Living with a Pacemaker.
Talk with your Dad and his cardiac surgeon.

Then they should have beaten the DSA socialists out of the party a decade ago, and found their own "moderate" puppets to groom and control. It's a bit too late now.
Spoiler alert: all the DNC elite are all secret socialists. They are all red diaper babies like Ayers. But they wanted to destroy capitalism gently, let it slowly fall apart and decline into socialism. Not his revolutionary, wham bam thank you ma'am kind the young DSA whipper snappers are baying for. Because that might mean those elites might accidentally get deposed too.

If Lindsay Graham is gay, he certainly hasn't been part of the rainbow brigade and out about it . If he''d been using male prostitutes that's not apparent . He did some quite good things -as in his comments in the questioning of Kavanaugh's detractors.
"Legal Insurrection" has an article about him. It's quite positive about his dedicated care for his sister.

Absent some specific individual issues, it is all about how many calories you consume versus how many you burn. Walk 15 miles aday, you lose weight. Yes, there are some alleged tweaks - the periodic fast, the 8 hour window well after breakfast.
But in the end, if you eat too much you will gain weight.
The GLP's like Ozempic have a limited amount of clinical history but one thing we know is that the rebound when you come off of them is a problem. Employers had been on the GLP bandwagon but have begun to roll back as they see that the GLPs are not proving out across their entire populations. It has to be closely managed.

CDA has a whacko theory about Graham today. Take it with a LARGE grain of salt (like a mountain of it), but I do love reading crazy conspiracy theories.
"You will never get the timeline to work for the dead 1/100th. That being said, don't focus on the timeline and where he was and when he was there. Focus on the person who knew he would be alone when he returned home. That is where it happened. No witnesses and someone 45 minutes away to make the 911 call after the killer departed."
I can't tell if he's implying Graham got back to DC from his trip, had a strange visitor or hired a rent boy, and the rent boy did something to mimic a heart attack. But drinking polonium tea poison when he was in Ukraine might be my current favorite.
Like I said earlier, unless there's proof, Occam's Razor is probably right in Graham's case. Mitch, on the other hand...

More Illegal Aliens Discovered Voting Illegally in US Elections
The left is shrieking (as usual) about the possibility that state election officials who turn a blind eye to illegal alien voting might be arrested themselves. This is PBS so expect bias.
Evidence mounts of noncitizens reaching voter rolls, casting ballots as DOJ speeds crackdown Trump DOJ has secured about two dozen noncitizen voting arrests, prosecutions or convictions in the last few months, with about another 90 more cases under investigation. A small town Kansas mayor born in Mexico. A Filipino senior citizen living in Hawaii. Two Pakistani men residing in New Jersey. An Aussie in Louisiana. And a Chinese student studying at the University of Michigan. They all have one thing in common. Each has been charged in the last year with illegally voting in U.S. federal elections as foreigners, part of a sudden wave of prosecutions led by the Trump Justice Department for a crime that used to be among the rarest in the federal court system. The Trump Justice Department has secured about two dozen non-citizens voting arrests, prosecutions or convictions in the last few months alone, with about another 90 more cases under investigation, officials told Just the News. And all 50 states were sent notices this month that election officials can and will be prosecuted too if they allow non-citizens to vote. "It isn't just bad policy to let non-citizens vote in federal elections, it's a crime. And this Department of Justice will intend to prosecute that crime if these election officials, having been informed that they are non-citizens on the voter rolls, knowingly allow those people to vote, enable their enrollment on the voter rolls, are passive in the face of this knowledge, etc. This is not some idle threat," Assistant Attorney General for Ciril Rights Harmeet Dhillon told the Just the News, No Noise television show. DOJ officials have found three major problems in policing states' voter rolls ahead of the 2026 election: hundreds of thousands of dead people still eligible to vote, tens of thousands of illegal aliens on the rolls and scores of foreigners having gone beyond registering to, in fact, vote in a federal election, which is illegal. Dhillon, the top election cop inside the DOJ, believes the numbers of foreigners illicitly voting in elections is probably higher but has been frustrated that U.S. Attorney offices across the country haven't made illegal voting a larger priority until just recently. "We are trying to empty an ocean with a teaspoon because there isn't a culture of U.S. attorneys going after these," she explained. That's changing with the sudden explosion of cases.
DOJ threatens to arrest state election officials if noncitizens voteWhite supremacist groups are also very, very rare but the left seems keenly interested in stopping them.
The Department of Justice is threatening to arrest more than a dozen state election officials if a single vote is cast in their states by a noncitizen. The threat was part of a letter giving election officials five days to detail how they will comply with laws on noncitizens voting. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Jessica Huseman of Votebeat, who obtained the letter. Amna Nawaz: The Department of Justice is threatening top election officials in more than a dozen states with arrest if even a single vote is cast in their states by a noncitizen. The threats detailed in a letter stating it's illegal for noncitizens to vote and giving elections officials five days to detail how they will comply with federal law. It's worth noting that noncitizens voting, as well as election fraud in general, is exceedingly rare in this country, with just a handful of reported cases, even in databases kept by conservative legal groups. The letter was obtained by Votebeat.
Maybe they should be.
Jessica Huseman, Editorial Director, Votebeat: All of the states got the letter, which that was not initially obvious when this was reported for the first time. We heard from several states all at once that had gotten it. There were several states that couldn't actually find the letter because the Trump administration sent it to things like info@secretaryofstate.gov for some of these Web sites. So they had to go hunt it down. But, yes, all 50 states have gotten them. And the letter essentially reminds election administrators that noncitizen voting is illegal and says that there are criminal penalties associated with knowingly allowing a noncitizen to vote. Of course, that is not new information to election officials. And all of the election officials that I spoke to about this yesterday didn't seem particularly concerned.

4-5 million have left (between 1-1.2 million forcibly deported plus 3-4 million self-deportations).
How many votes is that?
Between 200,000 and 250,000 illegal votes.
Not, inflated voter rolls so that backrooms can do stuff, just straight up illegal votes that get counted.
Does that make a difference? What if we get another 100,000 of those illegal votes out before November?
It's going to matter where the deportations are happening, but it's red states that are doing the most to help the Trump administration find and deport illegals with things like 287(g) agreements.
Hell, even NC, with a Democrat governor, just got a law into effect (over Stein's veto) to force all state and local authorities to enter into 287(g) agreements with DHS.

So, it seems reasonable to assume that Trump has deported (and led to the self-deportation of) literally hundreds of thousands of voters already.
I'm assuming they voted more heavily for Democrats, as well.
Keep it up. ICE deportation flights are at historic highs right now. We can get higher!

- everyone who gets a driver's license is registered to vote
- everyone who registers to vote is sent a ballot
- no name of the registered voter is on the ballot and all proof of whose name the ballot was from is destroyed before it's counted by the election officials.
BUT:
Absolutely, no way, no how could any illegal ever, ever, ever vote.
It's because, that's why.
They have intentionally created a system where it is impossible to detect fraud.
And charged the President, and others, with multiple felonies for daring to even question that system.

Why is the base angry about the border?
Congress funded ICE through 2029 at historic levels (it's like the third largest military in the world, effectively), border crossings are effectively zero, and all (literally all) visa classes are down double digits.
This is the most anti-illegal and anti-legal immigration administration since the 1920s.
Trump has forcibly deported about 4x as many people as Eisenhower did, and he's got 2.5 more years of elevated funding to do it more.

Lame headline. No state "allows" non-citizens to vote. More performative action to appease their idiot supporters.
No, no, no. They exist, trust me. Nameless enemy states. Both comically weak and the largest threats you can imagine.
The article is simply designed to further the narrative that it's even happening. It doesn't counter it at all. CBS is a captured network working for foreign interests. It's beyond propaganda.
Precursor to them claiming in Novemer that there's "massive fraud" in blue states and cities due to non-citizens voting. I guarantee you there's already a plan in place to contest every Democrat-won election and sow chaos on election day.
This on the heels of an attempt to remove birthright citizenship. Do we see how the chips are falling yet?
All 40 non citizens nation-wide over the last 20 years, per MAGA's own Heritage Foundation? A really major issue...

No member of Congress reads this blog.
I doubt there's even one staffer who does.
Until about 7 years ago, they all thought the National Review was still the conservative voice.
Most still do.
They all still read the NYT, the WSJ and the WaPo--to get a balanced reporting of the news.
Fox News might be on if a staffer forgot to change the channel. But otherwise, it's CNN, which most still believe is centrist..
It's why I say we must viciously and without remorse attack David French et al. at all times:
Because, we know they are not conservative in any way.
But the members of Congress see him as the conservative presented and vouched for by sources they trust.

The DOJ routinely sends people to oversee federal elections in states. The problem is the watchers haven't always been watching depending on which administration is in office.

That's how you know there are massive numbers of illegals voting.
Kinda related:
You know how Nick Shirley has walked into state after state and each time discovers massive, multi-millions in fraud?
Which can only happen if everyone in the state is refusing to even look, let alone investigate?
But, it exposes, just barely the surface, of how massive and widespread the fraud is.
And that is also vote fraud--we haven't even started to look yet.

I was listening to the local PBS classical station today, when begging time came on. They said this was the one year anniversary of when ALL of their federal funding was cut off. You know, the funding they used to insist was but a tiny fraction of their budget; a rounding error really. They described it as "this dark time".
I laughed and laughed.

The fact we sunk all their subs and military craft already puts the repair sheds lower down the target priority list.

Hmm: Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Was Recruited as a Spy by Israel; Israel Hoped He Could Take Control of Iran After Assassinations of Iran's President and His Advisors
But plans tend to not survive first contact with the enemy. A rector from the University of Budapest sent an invitation to Ahmadinejad to attend a "climate change" conference. His hope was to get him close to Israeli delegates so that they could talk and maybe eventually broker a peace treaty.A key part of the plan was that Kurdish Iranians would march on Tehran. But, as Trump lamented months ago, that never happened. That was supposed to be the ground element which is absolutely essential in actually winning a war.
The yearslong effort to groom the former Iranian president as an intelligence asset culminated in a dramatic effort to take him to an Israeli safe house in the early days of the war. But the plan fell apart. ... Mr. Ahmadinejad's 2024 visit to the university and a second one the following year were part of a yearslong Israeli effort to groom him as an intelligence asset who, when the time came, could be installed as Iran's new leader, according to both American and Iranian officials familiar with the operation, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive intelligence. Recruiting Mr. Ahmadinejad was of such priority for Israel that the country's then-spy chief David Barnea even traveled to the Hungarian capital in 2024 to meet with Mr. Ahmadinejad personally, according to former American officials. Soon afterward, they said, Mossad, Israel's foreign intelligence service, notified the C.I.A. that it had been in contact with Mr. Ahmadinejad. Israel's decision to build a regime-change plan around Mr. Ahmadinejad is an extraordinary twist in the saga of the country's relations with the former president, who was known for accelerating Iran's nuclear program, calling regularly for the destruction of Israel and denying the Holocaust.
In recent years, according to American officials, Israel secretly paid money to Mr. Ahmadinejad for housing and travel, and Israeli operatives met him abroad on several occasions, including during his trips to Budapest. ... The effort culminated in late February of this year -- during the first days of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran -- with an audacious operation to relocate the former leader, who had been living under strict surveillance in Tehran. The goal: to set in motion the plan to topple the current regime and install Mr. Ahmadinejad. The plan failed.
On Feb. 28, an Israeli airstrike hit Mr. Ahmadinejad's compound, targeting the building of his bodyguards and his armored vehicle. After the strike, according to four senior Iranian officials, a black Peugeot car arrived, picked up Mr. Ahmadinejad and whisked him away at high speed from the chaotic scene. American and Iranian officials with knowledge of the operation said the car had been driven by Mossad operatives, who took Mr. Ahmadinejad to a secret safe house in Iran. But the former Iranian leader was upset about the frantic rescue operation, and he appeared to be disillusioned about the Israeli plan to return him to power, according to people with knowledge of what occurred. He eventually left the safe house under circumstances that are still unclear. Mr. Ahmadinejad was not seen in public again until last Monday, when he made a brief appearance at the funeral procession for the slain supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. His current status remains uncertain. But four senior Iranian officials said that Mr. Ahmadinejad was in the custody of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' intelligence wing, under house arrest now that Iran has learned about much of his interactions with Israel.
Israeli officials have not commented publicly about the plan to install Mr. Ahmadinejad as Iran's leader, which was part of a broader attempt to topple the government in Tehran. Another element involved arming and training Iranian Kurdish opposition forces based in northern Iraq to cross into western Iran, hold territory there and eventually move toward the capital Tehran, an effort that never manifested.It's not clear to me if Ahmadinejad had actually turned spy or was merely taking Israel's money while feigning interest. I guess it's reassuring to know that there was a plan for regime change... but this plan seems to have been pretty smokey from the start.
... Mossad officials did not respond to requests for comment. Ali Akbar Javanfekr, a spokesman for Mr. Ahmadinejad, declined to comment.

CIA had equally lame plans and I'm sure that the KGB produced lemons instead of workable plans at times. Regime change is a stupid sidestep that absent total war, has little chance for a permanent fix. The Kaiser and his crew thought shipping Lenin to Russia in a sealed car was a good idea--what could go wrong for Germany if Lenin caused a revolution in Russia?

We should be arming the Kurds on their promise to march on Tehran. Tell them we'll support a breakaway independent state for them, once the mullahs are out.

The population is probably starving.
The blockade and sanctions are back on, meaning that Iran made somewhere between nothing and peanuts on the oil they could get out (most is still at sea, so little money has actually changed hands from the few people willing to buy Iranian oil at all).
Iran received $0 from the $300 billion investment fund and $0 from the $12 billion frozen assets because they simply wouldn't operate like a normal country.
That's probably a greater effect on the nation that most of the bombing.

Still waiting for it to happen. It's till the best plan.
Average Iranians aren't soldiers. They would fight like amateurs.
The Kurdish guerrills are trained soldiers. They have fighting experience. They know how to shoot to kill.
We should be arming the Kurds on their promise to march on Tehran. Tell them we'll support a breakaway independent state for them, once the mullahs are out.
Do it.

Kurds are not a monolith and Iranian Kurds are not the same as Iraqi Kurds who are not the same as Syrian/Turkish Kurds. And none of those surrounding states want a Kurdistan on their borders.
Reportedly, Iranian Kurds took the arms, money, and Starlinks and at least sold off the Starlinks if not gave them to the regime.
Minority groups are difficult to manage for regime change as they have a natural tendency to focus on their interests rather than broader strategic interests of the sponsoring nation.

Iraq arrested most of their pro-Iranian politicians recently.
The Iraqi PM is going to DC right now to sign some MOUs with the US about American investment in energy in the country (we're finally getting the Iraqi oil, boys).
UAE just announced a new port to be constructed on their eastern coast, on the Omani Gulf coast, bypassing the strait completely (2 years to build, at least, but still).

Dunno. We bombed key railroad bridges linking the Iranian heartland with China, Russia, via Turkmenistan this time so we shall see how much ruin there is in the country. Starving populations make it more likely to have a military dictator but the very strategy of Iranian defense, the mosaic works against that.

We need to create an actual nots+bolts plan -- not just give the Kurd weapons and say, "Invade when you're ready."
Just as with South Vietnam in the late '50s and early '60s, their military "plans" were too discombobulated and random to effectively defeat the Viet Cong. Not until the US started sending "advisors" telling them how to conduct war did they start having success.
We need to set an actual target on an actual date.
Tell the Kurds, "On Date XYZ, and 4am, we will bomb the shot out of IRGC HQ and barracks in Bumfuckistan province. Shot Bet agents will blow up the bridges at rivers X, Y and Z. Have your troops come in on Highway ABC and take city Z at 5am. UNDERSTAND?" Etc.
Otherwise, they may never get up the nerve.

Something like 98% of Iranian imports pre-war were by sea, and the vast majority of that was from the Persian/Omani gulfs.
The railroads were non-contiguous (they operate on different gauges from the stuff that actually heads into China, and there's a 60 mile gap between them).
A GDP dropping by 50% in a few months because of a blockade does a lot.

The Gulf States are actively making moves to make sure that Iran can't cause them trouble in the future while their manufacturing base (which took them decades to build) remains in ruins. Maybe in a few years they can get back to selling oil at a loss to China, I guess.

This is accurate, but an oversimplification. It is the "twelver" logic that they want to bring about Armageddon, which is complicated but not really the issue.
The problem is not that they want to die, but that (like palestinians) they are in a cult that reveres their cause and are willing to die. It also means they are unwilling to make any steps back from dominance and do not want to "just be a normal country" and "live in peace with the world." They want to fight for their cause and are willing to say or do anything, even die, because the only thing important to them is to advance their version of islam.

The IRGC has not really even begun to have its ranks depleted. Same for all the other proxy groups and Basij. They have fighters coming in from all over the ME and Caucuses.
The Ukrainian people are fighting for their country. If they don’t, they lose it. They don’t want to.
The Iranian opposition is allegedly fighting for their country too. Lots of social media posts and likes on DJT comments. Right now there is not organized opposition. Just a bunch of sloganeering.
At some point you have to grab people by the belt buckle and stab them in the throat. That’s war. You risk it all for a cause worth fighting for. We’ve done that for 250 years or so now. It’s how you win. It’s how you keep a country, which btw some Democrats should remember.

Considering the volume Iran can take in by rail from the east, yes, it's not really a concern.
So, unless China is going to make Iran a client state like North Korea, which seems doubtful at this point, then no, the comparison is not at all similar.
Besides, we just took out a couple of rail lines from the east anyway.

His current status remains uncertain. But four senior Iranian officials said that Mr. Ahmadinejad was in the custody of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' intelligence wing, under house arrest now that Iran has learned about much of his interactions with Israel.
Why do I get the idea that this was the goal from the beginning? I don't think anyone REALLY thought that Ahmadinejad would turn into an Israeli ally. But it sounds like a great way to get the IRGC to do our dirty work for us.

The MOU was written as disadvantageous to Iran.
They had to act normal in order to receive frozen funds. They simply couldn't do that because of their idiotic "IRGC is decentralized and populated by third world retards who will fire on the Chinese cargo vessels in the strait even when the civilian government didn't want it" thing was just standard operations.
They got not one penny if they did anything antagonistic in the strait, and they only got the $300 billion investment at some point in the future if the MOU was followed.

I don't think anyone expected the MOU to be worth the paper it was written on, and I said so before it was signed. It's to show the vaginocracy that runs the West that Trump can play nice with the other children. That way, when the other children inevitably misbehave, it's not his fault he has to break their nose.
Posted by: Ian S. at July 13, 2026 02:48 PM (2ocoG)
======
The MOU was never more than a set of terms on which the two countries would speak.
It promised shockingly little in terms of actual deliverables before an actual peace was signed, of which the MOU was not it.
It gave Iran the opportunity to show the world that it could act like a normal country. And they failed miserably because they're third world retards.
And now America is back to bombing, and no one, in particular the oil markets, give a shit.
We just starved the country more. That was the result of the MOU.

Kind of the same predicament the Allies faced with Mustache Man. Mustache Man was willing to fight to the last German because he had complete control of the SS and the secret police (although Himmler got a bit squirrely at the end). So it is with the Ayatollahs and the IRGC.

Stopped for my coffee as usual at a Turkey Hill in PA (location to remain unknown) and there was a large woman wearing a wife beater....only both her boobs were hanging out either side (not talking side boob...the whole enchilada). Everyone in the store was trying not to notice. I ended up behind her at the register where the young guy behind the register (probably about 20) very politely said. "Would you mind tucking those things away?" The woman was about to go into a tantrum, and the kid, bless him, goes. "Look, I work with idiots. They'll spend all afternoon looking at the security footage, and I'll end up doing everything as usual" Which hit me...and I just couldn't stop laughing. She left, I bought my coffee.

Iran was unable to import anything. No one is willing to port with them because actually started engaging in piracy, stealing three cargo vessels on top of the random firing at ships near Oman.
Their oil vessels are still at sea and are now sanctioned and can't port anywhere except China who will probably feel no need to purchase them except at the deepest of deep discounts, so it's not like Iran got money for the oil at market rates, and there's going to be a bunch they won't get paid for at all.
Their inflation continues to climb. Their GDP continues to fall.
And the oil markets just...balanced out.
I'd say we gained enough and Iran just kept losing. Including the rest of their oil fleet which the US can now disable or commandeer (we've done it to both Venezuela and Iran over the last year).

1) Occupy Kharg Island & the other small islands nearby. Would this nicely complement Trump's re-imposition of the embargo on Iran's oil exports? Might it cause Iran to realize that things could get a lot worse?
2. Find a Kurdish group which will declare the Kurdish-populated territory in Iran to be a new, independent Kurdish nation. Might this not also move Iran toward the realization that it could get a lot worse?
I don't subscribe to the view that there are "rogue elements" in Iran's leadership, let alone "moderates." I think this is a pipedream which the regime encourages.
What the U.S. has done lately is clearly not enough to change the behavior of the ruling IRGC clique.
I suspect the Iranian decision makers believe that all they need to do is stall until the U.S. election, & then wait for the new Congress to cut off funding for the war. They may be right. The war is already unpopular in the U.S.-- unless one believes all the polls are wrong & that the war is actually quite popular. And DEMs are starting to employ the dreaded "Quagmire!" "Stop this endless war!" rhetoric.

Trump Endorses Lindsey Graham's Sister to Replace Him
Uhhh... I don't like politics becoming so dynastic.
But I guess the idea is that his sister taking over for the rest of the term would be non-controversial right now. All of the people who want to run for the seat also want to be appointed to fill out the term, because that gives them a huge incumbency advantage. Appointing Graham's sister to the seat avoids that... assuming she really only serves for the remaining months. Graham raised his sister after his parents died.President Trump posted on his Truth Social minutes before that he had recommended Graham's "wonderful sister" to serve as interim senator until a special election can be held.Trump ordered the White House's flags to half-mast.
South Carolina Republican Gov. Henry McMaster will be choosing that replacement. He's scheduled a 4 p.m. press conference to make that announcement.
"This would be a fabulous tribute to Lindsey, who loved her dearly!" Trump added. Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) agreed and told The Post that he has known the late South Carolina senator's sister "for years and she's a constituent of mine in Lexington County." "I have faith in Gov. McMaster that he will make the right decision, but I would support the president's recommendation," Wilson said. Preliminary findings from the Washington, DC, medical examiner's office determined that Lindsey Graham died of a ruptured aorta brought on by chronic heart disease. Emergency responders arrived at the Republican senator's Capitol Hill home at around 8:30 p.m. after getting a call about an individual suffering from chest pains, according to scanner audio. Medics performed CPR as Graham went into cardiac arrest a half hour later. He was then rushed to George Washington University Hospital, where he died. When running for president in 2016, Graham had even joked about his sister serving as his first lady along with a "rotating" cast of other friends. "I've got a sister, she could play that role if necessary," he told the Daily Mail in a June 2015 interview when asked about being the first bachelor in the White House since former President Woodrow Wilson. The Graham parents had run a bar and pool hall in Central, S.C., where for a time they had raised their two kids in a backroom, the senator later shared in a memoir. After their deaths, Graham enlisted in the Air Force and became Darline's legal guardian so he could use his military benefits to support his sister. ... "Of all the things that have happened in my life, her turning out so well is the highlight of it by far," he was quoted as telling C-SPAN in 2015, per the outlet.
President Trump announced on Sunday that he has ordered "all American Flags throughout the United States" lowered to half-mast until Saturday night at 6 P.M. "In honor of the remarkable life and achievements of Senator Lindsey Graham, a dear friend of mine, and a truly great man, who achieved so much for our Country, and his beloved Home State of South Carolina, I am ordering all American Flags throughout the United States lowered to Half Mast until Saturday evening at 6 P.M. GOD BLESS YOU LINDSEY! President DONALD J. TRUMP," he wrote on X.South Carolina polls are scrambling to be appointed Senator, and boy oh boy I sure hope they don't pick the flaky tramp Nancy Mace, who'll be unemployed in months. CHARLESTON, S.C. -- CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) -- The death of Sen. Lindsey Graham, who was running for a fifth term, begins a tumultuous new chapter in South Carolina politics during a year that has already been full of upheaval. As the conservative state's senior senator and an influential ally of President Donald Trump, Graham was presumed to be on a glide path toward reelection. Now, Gov. Henry McMaster must choose a temporary replacement who can serve until January while the state also prepares a special primary so voters can choose a new Republican nominee for the general election. The rare open Senate seat has ignited a scramble among South Carolina's most ambitious conservatives, who have been eager to climb the political ladder. Republicans just finished a sprawling and bruising contest to figure out their nominee for succeeding McMaster, who is wrapping up his second term. State Attorney General Alan Wilson won the nomination, overcoming a field that included Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, Rep. Nancy Mace and Ralph Norman -- all of whom are now eyeing Graham's seat following his death over the weekend. According to South Carolina law, a one-week filing period for a special primary election begins on the second Tuesday after the candidate's death, or July 21. The special primary election would be held on the second Tuesday after that filing period closes, or Aug. 11. Any necessary runoff would follow two weeks after that, or Aug. 25. From that point, the new nominee would have just over two months to campaign for the general election on Nov. 3. There's a snag in the timetable:
All of this is problematic according to federal law, which requires military and overseas ballots to go out 45 days before any federal election. For the general election primary, that would have been June 27. Federal Election Commission officials didn't immediately return a message seeking clarity about the process.Here are some of the possible replacements, including, unfortunately, Nancy Mace. And including Scott Bessent -- who I think we need to keep where he is. Meanwhile, we don't have to worry about replacing Mitch McConnell -- for the moment, anyway.
Sen. Mitch McConnell, who has been in the hospital since June 11 with an undisclosed medical diagnosis, said in a statement Sunday that he suffered a fall last month that left him briefly unconscious and landed him in the hospital. The lawmaker said he also had to deal with a "mild case of pneumonia." "My doctors have confirmed that I didn't break any bones or suffer a concussion. I didn't have a heart attack or a stroke. I don't have any tumors or hemorrhages. But I was briefly unconscious and was taken to the hospital. While receiving excellent care over the past several weeks, I've also had to deal with a mild case of pneumonia," McConnell said in the statement. McConnell's office has provided few details about what landed the senator in the hospital last month, despite a growing demand from many, including Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear. In the statement, a letter from McConnell to his fellow Kentuckians, he said he hesitated to be more public about what happened to him.Incredibly, the sneaky, secretive McConnell claimed that his refusal to keep his constituents informed was just some widely-shared penchant for skullduggery shared by all members of his generation:
"You all know how folks of my generation often hesitate to share the vulnerability that comes with growing older. Even in the public eye, I feel that same instinct -- I can't help it," McConnell said in his note."I can't help it." Even though I have a responsibility to my constituents and the country, "I can't help it." That's just me and my generation. You young'uns wouldn't understand about, you know, lying.
"But at the same time, I've had more than my share of experience with physical vulnerabilities. Surviving childhood polio meant spending my entire life with mobility challenges. They haven't exactly gotten easier to manage with age. And last month, I took a fall which landed me in the hospital," he said.Oh my goodness, he played the "childhood polio" card. What an absolute asshole. We are ruled not just by men without chests, but also, men without souls.

He worked hard to advance Trump's policies consistently ever since.
His time of calling for the nationalizing of banks in 2008 or Gang of Eight stuff was long dead.
When I moved to SC (2011), I had a great desire to see the end of Graham.
When I left (2022), I had pretty much no problem with him anymore.
He was a good politician who recognized that the captain of the team had changed.

Yep, Darline, Miss Lindsey's sister is going to be a "caretaker" to hold the seat until it expires.
At first blush, this is ridiculous, of course, but here's what's going on. Gov. McMaster was in quite the pickle. If he picked any viable candidate who will run in the special primary in August, he'd piss the others off.
And one of those others is Nancy Mace, and you know, bitch be crazy. McMaster was getting pulled six ways to Sunday from various people trying to call in favors from him.
So, picking Darline is just a punt to avoid all that mess. Fucking soap opera, but that's SC politics.

It's my guess that she's told Trump she has no interest in politics, and would only fill out the seat until someone is elected for '27. Whether you choose to believe that or not is up to you.

Trump pops off about how Canada should be a US state if it is that dependent
Canada goes insane over the insult, elects Carney, who uses the whole might of Canadian Industry and taxing authority to seek revenge, even in violation of the spirit if not the tight interpretation of MCA.
Trump then says, "fine, have it your way independent Canada" and is now out of MCA.
Moral to the story: If Trump is prodding you to piss you off, he wants you out of position so he can whack you in the haid.

All of this is problematic according to federal law, which requires military and overseas ballots to go out 45 days before any federal election. For the general election primary, that would have been June 27. Federal Election Commission officials didn't immediately return a message seeking clarity about the process.

Posted by: Archimedes at July 13, 2026 01:33 PM (Riz8t)
I am not as close to it as I used to be so I am not sure I can handicap this right.
But there are major geographic regions that are power bases. Midlands (Columbia-Lexington), Charleston, Upstate (Greenvile-Spartanburg), Edgefield, and now Myrtle Beach. Then there is the VRA mandated gerrymander but that's a Democrat stronghold.
Typically SC GOP balances out power, the Senate has been Edsgefield and Charleston since 1960 or so. Tim Scott is from Charleston. Mace is from Charleston, GOP won't do 2 Charlestonians in the Senate. So has to be from one of the other regions. Plus she just lost a statewide race. Joe Wilson (Lexington) would probably be up for it if he were not currently running for his House seat. Perhaps he considers Darline a good seat holder while he prepares for the special election.
Nikki Haley is Lexington power base, so she could be considered.
Myrtle Beach is too new to get a seat at the Senate table, and I think the Upstate and Edgefield have as their congresspersons people who are also too new.
I think if McMaster goes with Darline, that means Joe Wilson runs. He could go with Haley though.

The idea that the Senate was going to do anything productive outside a sudden SCOTUS death before the start of the next congress is silly.
There was a small, remote chance of another reconciliation bill, but that's gone with Graham dying.
The Senate is going to do nothing productive until 2027. Warm bodies are all that's necessary.

Because sovereignty rests with the people, not the governor nor even the state legislature. Force majeur. Theoretically, there is a 59 day window where the seat was vacant before a special election in KY that Beshear could attempt to fill without a special election but I doubt even the KY Sup. Ct would allow him to fill it outside of that window. They are elected too.

With 27 ships in its fleet, Carnival offers ships of all sizes and styles. The fleet ranges from relatively small vessels with a maximum passenger capacity of just over 2,000, to huge ships that rival those of Royal Caribbean, owner of the world’s largest cruise ships.
Although the trend in the Carnival fleet is the newer the bigger, there are some exceptions, notably because the cruise line has incorporated some of Costa’s ships into its fleet over the years. To help you get a lay of the land, we have broken down Carnival cruise ships by size, from the largest to the smallest in terms of gross tonnage.
Note that Carnival will unveil more ships in the near future: Carnival Festivale (180,000 gross tons) in spring 2027, Carnival Tropicale (180,000 gross tons) in spring 2028, and three unnamed ships in 2029, 2031 and 2033, the latter three set to be 230,000 gross tons.

I was advised earlier that it's just what some people do.
McConnell's wife didn't cut her trip to China short because she supposedly "got word" he was fine, so she stayed.

I'm not following. There's a state constitutional provision that says "Vacancies in all offices for the
State at large, or for districts larger than a county, shall be filled by appointment of the Governor." What's the legal theory that would render that provision invalid?
The real argument is over the meaning of "office for the State at large," which is not otherwise defined in the state constitution.

A) the US Constitution which trumps state constitutions give the power to the legislature to pick (not governors btw) senators even after the 17th.
B) the reason behind that goes back to the founding where royal executive appointments to upper state legislative bodies were viewed as evil and so after the founding, state legislative bodies severely restricted executive appointment powers to legislatures. State legislatures were viewed as the closest to the people, not governors.
C) State legislatures have the power to create elections including special ones by legislation, governors do not. So, a law that creates a special election to fill a vacancy might be construed by the courts to offer the executive a limited 59 day appointment before the vacancy was filled but not after. Every state has special elections for senator special elections when a term ends prematurely including KY.
D) Practical politics as judges in KY are elected and might be ousted if they give Beshears the permanent win.
Constitutional provisions should be read harmoniously with the entire document rather than clause bound interpretivism like the anchor baby case.

The ultimate decider of who sits in the Senate is also not the KY Sup. Ct or Governor. It is the US Senate itself and that is outside court control. The lesser cannot constrain the greater.
The interesting situation is the August 3-4 deadline for the 59 day trigger. That would create a coterminous special election at the same time as the regular one to fill the vacancy under KY law, Beshears might object to raise his profile and appoint someone and then the litigation and election fun will begin.

Meanwhile, the US will solidify a bi-lateral trade agreement without largest trading partner (which isn't Canada)...Mexico.

The Daily Caller reports on Beto and Fredo teaming up to diddle the Democrats' most important constituency.Oh -- and voters whose first allegiance is to Mexico, and also, illegal aliens who have been struck from the voter rolls.
EXCLUSIVE: Talarico Finds His Base -- Drag Show Attendees, Mexico Fans And Purged Voters Democrat Texas Senate nominee James Talarico is partnering with failed Senate candidate Beto O'Rourke to unleash a voter outreach campaign that will target drag show attendees, Mexico soccer fans, and people previously purged from voter rolls, the Daily Caller has learned. After several failed candidacies, O'Rourke is now advising other up-and-coming Democrats through his organization Powered by People, which hosted a strategy Zoom call with Talarico's campaign Tuesday night, the Caller can reveal. During the call, Powered by People Executive Director Aimee Prudhomme revealed Democrats' strategy to target voters ahead of the November election. "Like Beto mentioned before, we go where the people are," Prudhomme said on a recording of the meeting obtained by the Caller. "We're trying to find likely Democratic voters. Those that are targets of voter suppression, likely to be removed or purged from the rolls come November. We go in places where those people are." In Texas, people are removed from voter rolls if they are serving a sentence for a felony conviction, if they are illegally in the United States, if they are mentally incapacitated, if they move out of the country or state, or if they die, according to the state's Election Code.
"So whether it’s college campuses, in places of worship, at concerts, clubs, drag shows … We are at those events." - Powered by People Executive Director Aimee Prudhomme https://t.co/BdU7d4XyMS

There is no such appetite for transing all the children lurking beneath the surface of the elite-imposed fake "consensus." Indeed, the only reason this monstrous insanity was permitted to infect so many children's minds was that it was artificially, undemocratically promoted as The Only Permissible Position by the leftwing Democrat establishment and the liberal Republican establishment. Popular conservative positions are suppressed and made radioactive by the leftwing/liberal elite. This means that someone who forthrightly embraces these positions can win elections. On the other hand, toxically unpopular leftwing positions are championed by the same leftwing/liberal elite. This means that the public's grudging tolerance for these positions only exists because the establishment threatens to excommunicate them if they dissent. The actual popular position is an angry rejection of these policies -- so there is no undercurrent of opinion that can be appealed to by a Talarico-type Preacher for Communism. Quite the opposite.

The ones we don't shoot will be taken as chattel slaves and assigned to marginalized LGBTQIA+ and POC masters. I will expropriate all private property and redistribute it to you - the hardworking foreign welfare queens and neurodivergent service workers who are the backbone of this country.
I will also gay marry Luigi Mangione, but that's neither here nor there."

A lot of the funding is crowd sourced not from parties but platforms (Act Blue for Dems, Win Red for GOP). And the most ideological activists are the ones most likely to donate money. So the political consultants for Talarico are doing bubba bait for stupid but well off enough people in the gentry class who are extremely ideological.
On the GOP side, the small donors are ideological but the GOP has traditionally promoted whale donors that max out their donations. Those type are pay for play on specific policy assholes and often hooked up with senior congressional staffers and party officials to make it so.

I think you know--these 'churches' worship the material world and not the holy Trinity. Inversion of values by gutting out cardinal virtues and wearing them as a skin suit.
Their love is loveless, their Bibles are blank, and their tolerance is hate for the faithful. They might as well directly worship Ba'al and have done with it.

Wife didn't attend during June, and I think a large number of parishioners also skipped that month, making the buzz-cut "pastoress" decide to lecture them on their intolerance when they came back.
The church is already bleeding members, and no one is bringing in their kids and grandkids. The lovely old brick building right down town is half empty as it is, and this sort of thing is probably going to kill it off, if only because they won't be able to pay the power and water bill.

Cooper 48
Whatley 44
A few observations.
1. That's within the margin of error (each point has a margin of error, and they overlap).
2. Cooper is under 50.
3. This is worse than Cunningham was running in 2020 against Tillis. (Tillis won, obviously.)
4. What if NC has some state level pupleishness but is just a red state at the federal level now?

The purpose of HIPAA was initially to assure that other providers would have access to your records in situations where the then current method of transferring records was slow and not appropriate.
The result was a situation where no one could get access to your medical records other than the government without jumping through multiple bureaucratic hoops making the process even more slow and inapproprate.
The reason for this was that the legislators in charge of creating this failed system were terrified that someone would find out about their HIV status, history of mental illness, addictions, or doctor shopping.

I attended an Anglican Church in North America gathering yesterday afternoon at a local Protestant church. I'm guessing that the local church needs money to help their budget, because Anglicans In North America are much more conservative than the local Episcopal Church. I talked to a guy afterwards and he said " We had been talking about founding an Anglican Church for some time." It occurs to me that some of those folks might have left the local progressive Episcopal Church.
Lovely service , Bible and missional Christ centered. My only regret was that the didn't have Holy Communion because it was an evening prayer service which they alternate with holy communion services.

My son attends a beautiful, traditional and reverent Catholic Church that is completely staffed by former Anglican priests. Most of the priests are married (which is allowed if they are married when they convert) and the service follows a very Anglican approach - from the dress of the kids' choir to the "thees" and "thous" in the prayers. It's full of big, young families and traditional-minded oldsters. It's really wonderful.

Not particularly happy about it because it is like watching a ship intentionally heading toward the rocks and you pray that some might be saved.
The material world has some of the strongest holds on those with wealth, social stature, leisure, and education which is why Jesus mentioned wealth can be a barrier to entry to being saved.
In a way, someone who is destitute and yet leans on the Lord as a crutch aka the meek is far richer in spirit than someone who has everything apparently but not the Lord in their lives.

Do you have the articles or studies about this statistic?
I'm not commenting on this race specifically - I want to know where these numbers come from. Are the races all competitive? There is also the idea that white turnout might go down if the D candidate is a black who beat a white guy and I'm pretty certain it would. Racism doesn't pick and choose in Libtardville.

Which branch of Presbyterianism? They range from very conservative like the Presbyterian Church in America, to leftist like the Presbyterian Church USA, to insane radical, namely the Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary which produced Talarico. I don’t think he finished his studies. News articles say he “trained at” the seminary, or the like, not that he graduated.

Maybe, but this creep had a very fine line to walk.
His base is white commies and AWFuLs in Austin. Those people ain't the biggest fans of blacks. Sure, they may tell you they just love blacks, but the reality is the only blacks who ever set foot in their houses are the servants.
They surely wouldn't have a great reaction to Talacreepo campaigning with a fake ghetto whore screeching about how RACISSSSSS everything and everyone is.

That is great! . The Anglican Church in North America is a very fast growing and for a small church they had lots of kids there. I expect there will be more after the summer. I also can take holy communion there, which I cannot do at the RCC and no, I'm not trying to get into a debate about reception of the Eucharist
There was an English family with five kids in front of us . I laughed because there was a little girl of about two years old with another family saying loudly before the service " I want to get down NOW" ( She was in her father's arms) . The father of the English family laughed too and said "I remember those days fondly,
but I can't say that I want to repeat them" I said "Me either, but I couldn't t pick up my son anyway. He in his twenties." 😉

For voters who supported O'Rourke in 2018, Talarico is largely viewed as the natural next-generation progressive leader, with many expressing excitement and hope about their combined voter outreach.

James Talarico raises over $30 million in second quarter, campaign says, more than triple Ken Paxton’s sum.

It sounds like a bastardized version of the concept presented at the end of CS Lewis' The Last Battle. Aslan lets the Calormen soldier into heaven, because he was a good man and served his God honorably, therefore he was serving Aslan.
But that does not mean he got into heaven because of the TEACHINGS of the religion. He got it because he was a child of God who was good.
Any Christian who thinks Islam = Christianity is preaching pretty heretical thoughts. But that sounds like Talarico's Christianity in a nutshell.

Kiss all the ass you want.
Money talks to Crockett. His campaign is heavily funded. He could afford to cut her a check. But he didn't.
I suspect he knows he isn't going to win, and he's not looking to share a single nest-feather with her, because he knows this is the last stupendous grift he's going to get, and no amount of investment in party cronies will come to anything, because he's not going to need their help building a coalition that won't exist.
Might as well keep the $$$ for himself.

That may to her not be a bad thing to be distant from the moribund DNC. Democrat coalition is imploding because of internal contradictions and like the UK, I can see it splintering into racial/ethnic parties rather than an overarching coalition as it is today.
GOP's struggles between MAGA and GOPe takes up the oxygen but the Democrats are really undergoing a civil war right now between the newer DSA types and the old machine ethnic party of outs.

My senior dog is named Charlie. Her nickname is Big. When she came home with us, she was so skinny at 26 lbs we could see her hip bones. Fast forward 2 years and she got wider, and taller and then tipped the scales at 48 lbs but still built like an athlete. So, she became 'Big'.

The machine has shown repeatedly it will put down what it wants put down. If they're being allowed to exist then it's because they are sanctioned.

For her, sure.
For Trump? Also yes. This Iran thing is a big deal for him, this would ensure continuous support from that Senator, and she'll be well positioned to carry on Lindsey's role as the top defense contractor presence in the Senate, and to purchase more support if needed.
For the rest of us? Nah. We get raw-dog buttfucked, but that's true of any Republican who gets this freebie, one way or another.

Yep, Darline, Miss Lindsey's sister is going to be a "caretaker" to hold the seat until it expires.
At first blush, this is ridiculous, of course, but here's what's going on. Gov. McMaster was in quite the pickle. If he picked any viable candidate who will run in the special primary in August, he'd piss the others off.
And one of those others is Nancy Mace, and you know, bitch be crazy. McMaster was getting pulled six ways to Sunday from various people trying to call in favors from him.
So, picking Darline is just a punt to avoid all that mess. Fucking soap opera, but that's SC politics.

Posted by: Smell the Glove
GOPe will submit on the surface but wait for more opportune times like 2028. The demand for cheap labor has not gone away, the demands of the business communities to outsource, drop tariffs, etc. has not gone away, nor has the impulse to bow down to DEI. Like Reagan though, the GOPe has decided to simply do nothing to aid Trump in his last couple of years like passing SAVE, permanent cutoffs to Planned Parenthood, etc.
Unlike Democrats who want it all now, GOPe are patient and simply wait for their chance to regain power.
And I think in part, that is the gambit that Trump is pushing with Lindsay's sister being appointed. GOPe was gearing up old Rooster Tail Gowdy or Nikki Haley along with the other usual retread GOPe suspects.
Lindsay's sister being appointed sidesteps the GOPe establishment pressure and allows for a clean primary where Trump's dominance in endorsements come into play.

THE MORNING RANT: Great Economic News You Won’t Get from the Legacy Media
You wouldn’t know it if you rely on the legacy media for your economic news, but there are great things happening in this country. New unemployment claims have plummeted to historic lows, the US trade deficit has plunged, and there is massive industrial investment going on in the U.S., due in large part to President Trump’s “America-first” effort to re-shore industrial production.
But the legacy media is trying to tell a different story. Of course, there is still the inflation issue. Because we haven’t fully recovered from the Biden inflation shock, President Trump is blamed for not deflating prices back to a pre-Biden level. Core inflation is currently 2.9%, which is higher than desired, but look at the chart below. This is the most recent core inflation chart (through May 2026) from the Bureau of Labor Standards. The years 2021 through 2024 are the Biden years, all the others are Trump years. Notice anything?
Weekly initial unemployment claims for last week came in at 215,000, which is a very low level. Even more impressive, the average over the first six months of the year is around 213,000. To put that in perspective, the last time the January through July period had claims this low was 1968 and 1969. The workforce was much smaller then, less than half the size it is now.As for the overall unemployment rate, it was 4.2% and rising in November 2024 when Donald Trump was elected president. Today it is 4.2% and declining. This is also despite the massive reduction in the federal workforce that Trump has imposed. Meanwhile, the trade deficit is decreasing due to President Trump’s tariffs and re-shoring agenda. Comically, the media is desperate to report just the opposite, as shown in this weirdly-headlined New York Times piece from last week: U.S. Trade Deficit Widens in May on Record Goods Imports [NY Times – 7/07/2026] “Widens” is an interesting word choice. In this context it apparently means a slight one-month increase in the trade deficit from the dramatically lower monthly trade deficits that Trump has achieved.
The United States trade deficit in goods and services widened to $77.6 billion in May as America imported more goods than it sold abroad. On average, the monthly trade deficit in goods has been $96 billion in the 16 months since Mr. Trump returned to the White House. That’s down about 5 percent from the monthly average in the 16 months before his second term began.The chart below shows how the Trump administration has slashed the trade deficit since the end of the Biden administration in January 2025. But the New York Times wants you to know it “widened” in May 2026.
Rail traffic on U.S. carriers totaled 482,121 carloads and intermodal units for the week ending July 4, a gain of 8.7% from the same week a year ago.An 8.7% year-over-year increase in rail shipments over already solid prior-year results tells a story of very strong economic activity. A deeper dive reveals huge increases in the amount of domestically sourced steel, lumber, and other commodities being hauled to supply the industrial expansion under way. This headline is just one of many similar announcements of industrial growth and new jobs due to re-shoring: “Toyota to invest $3.6 billion to move Tacoma pickup truck production from Mexico to Texas” [CNBC – 7/06/2026]
The investment is expected to create 2,000 U.S. jobs at the facility, add a second vehicle assembly line and roughly double the size of the 2.7-million-square-foot plant by 2030, the automaker said. It will expand the plant’s annual capacity from roughly 200,000 to 350,000 units, Toyota said.Beyond the $3.6 billion invested and the 2,000 direct jobs at the Toyota expansion in San Antonio, there will be many billions of other dollars spent as that investment gets recirculated through the economy. The partisan media repeatedly tells American consumers that the economy is terrible, and then it follows-up with “consumer sentiment” polls as verification that the economy is bad. But their propaganda campaign can’t mask the actual industrial expansion going on. Consumer prices are still too high – rent, insurance, gas etc. By continuing to deport the millions of uninsured, non-citizens working at below-market wages and taking up housing, President Trump can continue to relieve inflation pressure and keep the country pointed to a great economic future.

Saw a PJW video over the weekend where a German woman was recording herself being stalked by an 'immigrant' and was trying to get him to leave her alone, then another woman walking around Poland and expressing how comfortable she felt because no one was following her, catcalling her or doing anything whatsoever to her.

My local breakfast taco place had posted prints of such stories in the window in order to deflect some of the blame from them raising prices.
But the biggest thing the media refuses to report on?
If all these illegals are "doing jobs Americans won't do" how come, if we take the estimate of 3 million deported/self-repatriated since 2025, we have not seen a massive spike in job listings?*
It's almost like they've been lying about what jobs--if any--the illegals were doing.

One year ago, President Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill into law, delivering the largest tax cut for working and middle-class families in American history. As the Senate @BudgetGOP Chairman, I was proud to lead this effort alongside my Senate and House Republican colleagues. By making the 2017 tax cuts permanent, we stopped a $2,300 tax increase on the average South Carolina family – all without a single Democrat vote. We also ended taxes on tips and overtime and delivered no taxes on Social Security benefits for over 35 million seniors.
The One Big Beautiful Bill also codified core components of @POTUS' agenda. Through a generational investment in border security, we put an end to Joe Biden’s open border. We also allocated extensive resources for law enforcement, expanded access to school choice, phased out Green New Deal subsidies and delivered billions of dollars for rural hospitals.
Twelve months later, we are now observing transformational results stemming from this legislation. Working families are keeping more of their hard-earned money, (much more).
They're not hearing or feeling it in out here in Blue States.

So the illegitimate Biden regime OF COURSE had to punish the workers. Because that's what happens when you are ruled by people who hate you.
We are in an existential fight and while this is good news, it won't be enough without 20+ years of this good news. And I doubt we can stop the next fraudulent election when half of our supposed party wants the enemy to win.

You’ve got to have at least a grudging admiration of the leftist machine’s ability over time to scramble so thoroughly so many brains. We’ve got descendants of slaves running interference for illegal aliens directly competing and taking away jobs, driving down wages, driving up rent, food & fuel.
It isn’t as though Americans hate foreigners, but Americans love their country. We don’t lock our doors because we hate other people, but because we love our family. The borders of a Nation are for the same reason.

I can confirm the anecdote of white tech workers finding it almost impossible to get a job.
The laptop class is a very online, very vocal and outsized on X, though.
There's also a simmering story of H1B visa-driven housing boom in the DFW cratering.
Like, the houses they were living in can't be sold (regardless of the near-impossible getting the stink of Indian and curry out).
New ones with bespoke spice rooms not selling.
And others asking "WTF were 3-year visas getting mortgages? Who was approving those? And why?"

Monetary inflation is a permanent loss of purchasing power of the currency. It never comes back.
Even at the “targeted” rate of 2% - realistically more like 3% or more in good years - your savings and investments are cut in half every 20 years.
And it should be noted in the absence of government jiggery-pokery, to add insult to injury, in the natural order of things prices uniformly go down over time. Not up.

Sounds like the cartel judge's attempt to tell the DOJ who and what they are allowed to investigate (when he denied the subpoenas, because, as he lied, "the statute of limitations has run"*) didn't work.
* which was a nice bit of typical cartel judge deception: a subpoena looks for evidence related to crimes; that the person in whose possession it is in may be outside limitations, that doesn't mean the crime is.

No, there is no single, definitive, unbiased, and widely replicated study that conclusively proves the strong version of the "Walmart effect" (permanent destruction of local businesses with no recovery). The empirical literature is mixed, contested, and shows displacement effects alongside offsetting factors like consumer gains and creative destruction.

Cup ticket prices. They’ve been expensive, but not out of this world expensive. I’d say on par with NFL playoffs pricing.
Typical seats were $500ish some more some less depending on the teams involved and of course how good the seats were. Even for US games which were a hot ticket, you could get in for $1k in the nosebleeds.
And yet places like Reddit posters were incredulous that games were sold out. Question often being how can anyone afford that in Trump’s economy where everyone is broke. They were all expecting empty stadiums.
And it’s like well despite that your left wing bubble would have you believe it’s not all doom and gloom out there. There are many people can afford to go see a once in a lifetime event like a World Cup in their city and drop $1k on it. Turns out it’s millions of people all over the country.
These people live in an alternate reality.

It discusses the pincer that regulation and labor capacity puts on production, and discusses how the current models discount these forces.
I am about half way through it, it is both intricately written originally in Academic Spanish and translated, and quite heavy on econometric calculations which I am forced to glance at and glaze over.

Fun facts about gators should you ever find yourself needing to fend one off...
- Their eyes retract into their skulls so poking their eyes, at least from the top, accomplishes nothing.
- Almost all of their jaw muscles are used to hold their moth closed on prey. Most people can get their mouths shut and hold them shut without significant effort.
Note that none of this information deals with the issue of the tail whip or them walking into the water while you're holding their mouths shut but, hey, it's better than your options against a bear.

The H1B labor brokers and industrial investors who were heavy into housing.
also, per randos on twitter, five years ago, Blackstone launched a fund that let ordinary investors do what banks do: lend money to hundreds of American companies and collect the interest. It worked spectacularly as a fundraise. BCRED became the largest fund of its kind on earth, with $80 billion in loans to 695 companies, funded by $45 billion in shareholder capital and $35 billion in debt.
Then, this spring, the shareholders started asking for their money back. In the second quarter of 2026 Blackstone started refusing to pay in full.
Blackstone holds a lot of real estate in hot markets. I wonder if there was a game going on where they hoovered up housing, then arranged for private lenders to back the loans they guaranteed for housing by the same real estate that they provided to anyone, even H1B borrowers in hot tech regions.

But (for instance) half of the kids on this blog, or anywhere else as a matter, don't realize the ups and downs of the economy and drivers.
The press harps on affordability of housing, vehicles, education and compares them all to the past, a different world altogether from their parents, grandparents. (Many not living on Easy Street themselves at this time.) And now competition with a much larger & more diverse population, an alleged more skilled & educated work force, and so on.

But the male college kid has no issues now as long as he doesn't eat a TON of meat at one time (think Thanksgiving load of ham). Not sure about his mom and sis b/c dad being severely affected just changes what they eat...

That is a mix. For example, if you could buy what passes as a well built luxury compact in the US for $30k that is made in China vs some mediocre $50k artifact of AFL-CIO union domestic dominated industry would you do it?
What if the Chinese car was an EV, would you consider it?
China has taken all of the manufacturing tricks developed by Tesla and has put them to scale using Chinese labor and proximity to their own supply chain. The US will forever be routing significant chunks of the profits towards the growing army of defined benefit pensioners who have been retired for decades.
Will there be a price delta that would have you buying/leasing a superior car (albeit EV) rather than an expensive liability that is subject to endless recalls and high depreciation?

My neighborhood retention pond is down the street a little ways but there's a gator in it. I've seen him plenty of times, usually just the eyes just above the surface of the water but sometimes he's sunning himself on the edge of water, just as cheeky as you please.

I halfway went through responding but thought there was no need because the policy stunk of ignorance--what is happening is illegals and foreigners to some extent are losing US jobs while US native workers are gaining. Trucking is an example where illegals are getting combed out of the workforce and having to be replaced by legal workers.

The original story came about because some Michigan university researchers proposed infecting the population with AGS with the anti-human purpose of saving the planet.
They don't care that AGS sufferers are also prohibited a number of critical medicines because of the immune response.

Will there be a price delta that would have you buying/leasing a superior car (albeit EV) rather than an expensive liability that is subject to endless recalls and high depreciation?
Posted by: Community Notes
A) those cars are EV and that is not going to be a player in the US for a long while
B) China sellers do not give one shit about liability--take a look at Amazon shit sellers---the nameplate changes but the same shit is sold. They change names as frequently as socks in order to avoid criminal and civil liability. Remember melamine in pet food products?
C) China since even during the emperor's time demonstrate that merchants there provide a good quality to get enough attention to sell initial orders and then reiteratively cheapen the quality to maximize profit until it is barely satisfactory to buyers only on price. Low trust is ingrained in their culture.

That is a damn calumny! It says quite clearly that it's the size of a walnut. I confess I never thought of using an Oreo as a unit of measure.
An adult alligator's brain weighs between 8 to 14 grams, which is about the size of a walnut or lighter than a single Oreo cookie. Despite having one of the smallest brain-to-body ratios among vertebrates, they possess the largest brain of any non-avian reptile and exhibit surprisingly complex behaviors.

China has taken all of the manufacturing tricks developed by Tesla and has put them to scale using Chinese labor and proximity to their own supply chain. The US will forever be routing significant chunks of the profits towards the growing army of defined benefit pensioners who have been retired for decades.
- - - - - - - - - -
The problem is China's own manufacturing tricks they have developed over the years that have given them a reputation for their high-quality products.
Or lack thereof.
Legacy automakers in America have been hollowed out for various reasons. But the cheapness of Chinese goods are suspect. Slave wages, sometimes literally. Inferior products and ingredients. And just selling at a loss, dumping on the market as economic warfare to kill competing companies elsewhere. And then when there is no competition, then the prices can rise back up. The quality doesn't, though. And when something egregious really happens, like the poisoned infant milk scandal, they may decapitate a manager or two, bow their heads, say "Sorry", and then do better at hiding it the next time.
