Posted by: ShainS at May 20, 2026 06:04 PM (McFv/) Republicans -- the Real Ones -- Win Big In Georgia, Sweeping the Suprme Court Races and Sending Raffensberger and His Grima Wormtounge Into RetirementFirst, the two Supreme Court races: OSZI saw Black Conservative Perspective crowing that when Republicans bother to vote in these non-presidential years -- which we've been pretty bad about lately -- we win. On to Secretary of State and chief vote-counter Brad Raffensperger, the Democrat plant who insisted that there was not a single fraudulent vote cast in Georgia in 2020. He attempted to illegally hide his counting of the votes from outside observers, but was ordered to allow observers in by a judge: LindellTVUpdate: Piper says the judge rescinded that TRO, so the secret vote counting is back on, at least unless he decides otherwise at an upcoming hearing. Raffensperger was running to be the "Republican" candidate for governor. Republicans rejected him like he was Tom Massie asking them if they're "swingers." Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger became the latest enemy of President Donald Trump's to lose a Republican primary on Tuesday. Billionaire Rick Jackson and Lt. Gov. Burt Jones advanced to a runoff election for the GOP nomination for Georgia governor -- locking out Raffensperger, who rose to prominence defending Georgia's 2020 election results but struggled to gain traction among his party's increasingly MAGA base. Raffensperger's defeat is another sign of Trump's grip on the GOP, following the president's wins ousting state Republican senators who clashed with him over redistricting in Indiana and Sen. Bill Cassidy's loss in Louisiana on Saturday. But the runoff also prolongs an already rancorous and expensive primary by several weeks. Jackson, a political newcomer who entered the race late but quickly rose in the polls, and Jones, who boasts Trump's endorsement, are both courting the same MAGA voters. ![]() Election WizardStudents of physiognomy will be interested to learn that he looks like Karl Rove's jerksock came to life and developed gynecomastia. ![]()

There's a bigger point here, and it's the precise opposite of the Times's witless frame. The Times ominously described the GOP having become "firmly in thrall" of a "cult of personality" dominated by a hypnotic former reality-TV star. But it's the exact opposite. It's pure representative government. Trump didn't purge the incumbents. Primary voters purged the incumbents. Think of this: Nearly 20% of the GOP-controlled Senate (up to ten Senators) will be replaced this year. That kind of political earthquake hasn't happened since at least 1980.The leftwing media is desperate to preserve the viability of RINO turncoats because RINO turncoats are the tools the Democrats use to keep conservatives out of power, eternally. The media only pretends to hate most Republican politicians. It doesn't really hate them-- because it knows they're all on the same side, deep down. What the media really, viscerally hates is Republican voters, who cannot be bullied. And who want some accountability. This isn't revenge. It's a reckoning. Okay I lied it's also revenge. But don't forget the reckoning part, which is important too. As Flopping Aces said: It's a performance review, and it's time to cut the dead weight, layabouts, malingerers, and clock-punchers.

When Raffensperger addressed the local Republican Jewish Coalition chapter in August he used the occasion to mention a letter that he received in February 2017 from Ambassador Judith Shorer, the Consul General of Israel to the Southeast in Atlanta. She thanked him for introducing a House resolution promoting ties between Georgia and Israel.

And only prove that voters are right to throw their asses out. Refusing to fund the security upgrades to the WH and passing the war powers resolution are Democrat Party priorities--passing them proves you are Democrats. The War Powers Act is unconstitutional.

This is more Democrat jealousy. They wish they had a party leader that could command this kind of voter loyalty. Obama came close but even he had lost his touch to get fellow Dems elected by 2010. Nearly every time they send Obama out his campaigning gets lackluster results. Meanwhile, Trump is swatting his GOP enemies out left and right. Drives the Dems crazy that they have none of that.

Real disappointing results in this race. Definitely shits down any idea of a fully blue Georgia state government for the foreseeable future, despite strong performances in the gubernatorial election.
It looks like the GA Democratic Party didn’t know how to message who their candidates were before the election. Many dems in Atlanta’s metro voted on which name sounded the Blackest, which is how you end up with the Republican judge winning Harris +70 Clayton co. Exactly. The Dems just lost these races not because the GOP did anything special but because Dem leadership was incompetent when it came to organizing. One thing this election showed me was how out of step I am with the average primary voter. Every one of my candidates lost by massive margins.

I think Flopping Aces has a point. What most hurt Massie was not his sticking his finger in the eye of the biggest bully in American politics (AIPAC et al) but rather not being a team player when the time came to swallow the massive budget pill and fund ICE. Voting against funding ICE was unforgivable.
All those millions raised against him was not used to publicly debate US aid to Israel in Kentucky. It was used to attack his voting record and his character. BTW, there has long been a rumor that the voting machine shenanigans in GA are controlled by a bipartisan elite. Not only kept Trump down but Tank Abrams out.

Bad take. A man in Michigan rammed his truck into a LDS church building, killed four, and shot eight more. Trump condemned the attack against Christians. Fitzpatrick took that occasion to tell everyone LDS aren't Christian and told Trump not to call them Christian. Fitzpatrick had multiple chances to make amends but refused.

BTW, there has long been a rumor that the voting machine shenanigans in GA are controlled by a bipartisan elite. Not only kept Trump down but Tank Abrams out.
--- the GA Republican response to any inquiry into election irregularities was more Stalinesque than any Democrat state. Even the mere question of impropriety was met with outrage and personal attacks. As noted, the context of Trump's call was that his team had already identified over 300k improper ballots. And Ratshitburger was not just refusing to even look at those--he was denying they even exited--causing an exasperated Trump to say you can't even find 11k votes?

A sad truth. MAGAMAGAMAGA would end the dems if they would just go vote in every election. Sadly, they won’t. I have no idea why. Posted by: Going deep. Out. ******************* Okay, I haven't voted in every single election. Here are a a few reasons why. I'm a Republican living in Texas. Conservative Republicans handed the state legislature a resounding victory for the GOP. Republicans in Austin responded by giving half of the committee chairmanships to Democrats. "Republican voter guides" routinely urge us to vote for staunch conservatives like, say, John Cornyn. Hey, didn't Chip Roy want to impeach Trump? Didn't he call MAGA voters "useless fucks?" Democrats can pull the lever secure in the knowledge that whatever lunacy they're advocating will be promoted by anyone with a D next to their name. Republican voters can be assured that 65% of the people they vote for will immediately work to secure Democrat victories. In supposedly conservative states, primaries are open, meaning they can be screwed with. In liberal states, primaries are closed. Posted by: Sam Adams at May 20, 2026 05:28 PM (X+xvk) 127

Posted by: FenelonSpoke Wrong. "One day [in 1930], Dave Fleischer handed Grim a photograph of singer, Helen Kane and asked him to design a caricature. Fleischer had found a sound-alike, and planned to use her in the upcoming Talkartoon, 'Dizzy Dishes'. Grim exaggerated Kane's wide eyes and rosebud mouth, creating a slightly coarse, but strikingly original design." An excerpt from film magazine Photoplay in April 1932 compared the two. One month later, Kane sued Fleischer for more than $6 million in today's currency for using her likeness. Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks, Fat, Dumb, and Happy at May 20, 2026 05:54 PM (ndZc7) 209

Leftists seek and hold power with insane greed
They forgot the part, or no longer care, that even the perception elections are fraudulent has deadly consequences to rule of law and the rest of it. Consent of the governed is a close run thing. If they were truly cognizant their attitude would be “Oh, you want to look under the hood of the electoral system? Here, have at it, by all means”. But they don’t do that. Deny everything, and flip the tables and accuse anyone of wanting free and fair elections as being election “deniers” themselves. It truly is a recipe for chaos and it is disturbing that those entrusted with this process don’t seem to be aware of it, or care. Posted by: Common Tater at May 20, 2026 06:01 PM (/DOZY) 238

Posted by: ShainS at May 20, 2026 06:04 PM (McFv/) No Longer Propped Up by the American Taxpayer, Communist Former-State Media NPR Will Cut 300 JobsNPR is slashing jobs and restructuring its newsroom as the public-radio giant grapples with a financial crunch fueled by federal funding cuts, weakening station revenue and dramatic changes in how Americans consume news. The nonprofit broadcaster told staff this week that roughly 300 employees, mostly on newsgathering desks, are eligible for voluntary buyouts as executives scramble to close an $8 million budget gap. NPR management expects only about 30 employees to accept the buyouts voluntarily, meaning layoffs in the 425-strong newsroom could follow if too few workers opt in. The downsizing comes during a grim moment for the news biz, with the Washington Post seeing brutal cuts and CBS News launching layoffs earlier this year.But they're not in the news business. They're in the propaganda business. Fox manages just fine in the news business. Communists should try reporting news rather than Party Doctrines. They lied and said "we only get 1% of our funding from the federal government." Yet when that "only 1%" is cut, they're forced to fire 300 of their 425 "news gatherers." Liars.

But I'll always cherish a few memories.

And the local host who quickly told his producer no calls (it was a call-in show) once he realized his idiot listeners would beclown themselves talking to someone who actually knew the topic and wouldn't spare or humor them).

All journalists should be fired, and there should be a jobs program for them, where they can actually serve the public.
They will all be arrested, and paired up by age, sex, and weight. Each pair will be placed in a small iron cage with water but no food, and with a webcam pointed at them. Bettors can go to DraftKings to bet on who will feast upon whom. The winners will be rested, fed, and paired together in half as many cages, to repeat this process until the last winner is sent to the panther pits. As cages empty, they will be filled with the professors, and then the politicians, and so forth. Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at May 20, 2026 04:14 PM (BI5O2) 193

Fortunately, the early ones were the worst - as he accurately stated. I guess that since the procedure is only 10 minutes or so they just make you tough it out.

In an earlier post the Lincoln Project was mentioned. I used to remember the ninnyhammers names who were in this elite club house.
Probably had secret knocks and panic rooms. I imagine them passing a bong and thinking they are erudite Mensa super intelligent men. Solving the problems not only of our failing country but the entire world. Nay, the universe and solar system into infinity and black holes. Some may talk of pinecones as I have no idea still where that came from with Massie or why. I don't want to know, but figure deformed, STD scarring or genital warts. Possibly leprosy would explain scaling. In normal times I would recommend a derm for cancer, but since it is Massie I won't...but it does not sound normal, eh? All things considered his sexting should be a warning to the Lincoln brain camps to not brag about their nethers too loudly, outside of the clubhouse. We need a Moron to infiltrate and report back to us. I'll bet there is porn, too, once they get high and drunk while their wives think they are problem solving. Maybe hookers or furries.

NPR will be re-funded, along with USAID, just as soon as the Democrats retake power. Probably try and pass a House Bill to that effect in January, if they're not too busy investigating Trump's entire Cabinet and filing multiple impeachment articles.

Carmen Lineberger allegedly emailed the confidential material to her own personal email, disguising them as dessert recipes to conceal them from record searches. Lineberger is charged with four felony counts in the indictment.

The Senate advanced legislation Tuesday directing President Donald Trump to withdraw American forces from the Iran conflict unless Congress authorizes continued operations or declares war. Lawmakers approved the resolution by a 50–47 vote.
The measure, rooted in the 1973 War Powers Resolution, cleared a key procedural hurdle after Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) voted for the resolution. Cassidy, who had previously voted against similar measures introduced several times this year, delivered the decisive margin. Three other Republicans—Sens. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), Susan Collins (R-Maine), and Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska)—also voted for the resolution. Only one Democrat, Sen. John Fetterman (D-Penn.), voted against it. Three Republicans, Sens. John Cornyn (R-Texas), Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), and Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) were absent. Posted by: It is What It Is at May 20, 2026 04:31 PM (9BMWb) 263

Carmen Lineberger allegedly emailed the confidential material to her own personal email, disguising them as dessert recipes to conceal them from record searches. Lineberger is charged with four felony counts in the indictment.

We don't need alcohol in fuel anymore. A smart way to do it politically - pair getting rid of the mandate with the government buying the same amount of corn to send to Africa. Then later you can get rid of the corn payout. In the short term the cost of gas will drop and engine performance will increase without losing farm votes.

She will now face another Democrat in a runoff. An article: Controversy-tarred congressional candidate Maureen Galindo this week pledged to transform a site south of San Antonio now used by the Trump administration to detain migrants into an internment camp for "American Zionists." "She'll turn Karnes ICE Detention Center into a prison for American Zionists and former ICE officers for human trafficking," Galindo wrote in an Instagram post over the weekend, referring to herself in the third person. "It will also be a castration processing center for pedophiles, which will probably be most of the Zionists." Galindo's latest set of inflammatory remarks comes as the Democratic hopeful for Texas' newly redrawn 35th Congressional District continues to draw national attention for remarks critics have called antisemitic and untethered from reality. The controversy is snowballing as she heads into the May 26 Democratic primary runoff. Over the past week, Galindo has accused her runoff opponent -- former Bexar County Public Information Officer Johnny Garcia -- of participating in a human trafficking conspiracy orchestrated by billionaire zionist Jews. She also pledged during a Texas Public Radio interview to put Garcia on trial for treason. Beyond her attacks on Garcia, Galindo has continued to promote the narrative that a cabal of Jewish zionists controls Hollywood, the media and even local politicians. Jake Tapper is right now pondering how to turn this into a political attack piece on Republicans.

Same methods.
Posted by: runner Democrats became Identitarians which means there is no overarching truth, no restraint on exercising power, and hatred of designated scapegoats. That is what unifies the left at the general election level. But then it becomes who among them gets to exercise power and that is where the bigotry and hatred turns inward. They are fighting each other for control, power, and money. So the current older elites in the Democrat party are getting shoved aside for the newcomers that now view it as their time for the goodies.

You quit. You have no constituents. 🚨BREAKING: U.S. Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) Has Resigned from Congress The Florida Democrat, who represented the heavily blue 20th District (Broward and Palm Beach counties), submitted her resignation on April 21, 2026, effective immediately. She stepped down just minutes before a scheduled House Ethics Committee hearing that was widely expected to recommend sanctions — including possible expulsion — amid allegations of ethics violations and misuse of campaign funds tied to ongoing federal investigations. In her statement, Cherfilus-McCormick called the process a “witch hunt” and said she was resigning to focus on her constituents.

(OWK as a Shapiro ploy. jk) Bullet points - House Republican leadership must immediately cease propping up this antisemitic candidacy, "House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chair Suzan DelBene (D-Wash) said in a statement Tuesday evening.

Hi! I'm Maureen, a candidate for San Antonio's City Council, District 1
San Antonio government has been hijacked by powerful millionaire interests who see our city as a source of capital rather than a unique blend of families and communities. Because of this takeover, too many of us are struggling from skyrocketing costs of living. As a marriage and family therapist, a single mom of three, and a longtime housing justice organizer, I know that stable, affordable housing isn’t just about shelter—it’s about the health and well-being of our families and communities. I know it because I've lived it. When our city puts profit over people, it creates cycles of stress, displacement, and harm that impacts generations. I’m running for City Council to break those cycles and fight for a city that prioritizes healing, stability, and dignity for all of us. This campaign isn't about me-it's about building a San Antonio where we all have a say in the future of our neighborhoods. San Antonio is not an investment portfolio -this is our home, and together, we’re taking it back. Join me in the fight for housing justice, participatory democracy, and a city that works for everyone. --- Millionaires🤣 Posted by: L - No nic, another fine day at May 20, 2026 03:11 PM (NFX2v) 191

After failing to land a higher-profile recruit, party leaders have hung their hopes on Garcia, a longtime sheriff's deputy whose connections to the centrist Blue Dog Coalition and a pro-Israel PAC have made him the best-funded candidate in the race, but also given some local progressives pause. National Democratic groups are confident Garcia can rally moderates to win the runoff, ...

Something really astounding, why do blacks vote for Democrats? Since the 1960s, Democrats have dedicated themselves to destroying black families and ghettoizing them and keeping them relying on government handouts to keep their votes. It's been blatantly obvious for decades. Yet relatively few have left.
And this isn't an issue centered across the ocean in a distant land, this is their own families lives. Now that one is a head scratcher. Posted by: JackStraw at May 20, 2026 03:22 PM (viF8m) Posted by: ... at May 20, 2026 03:22 PM (h2pEv) 260
Again with the term Zionist to describe contemporary people. What does the term actually mean in current context? Is it just a way to say, "I jes hates me some joos." or is there some actually meaning. I get that it meant something in 1948 and before - but now?
It seems to mean all sorts of things. Some people use it to refer to all Jews. Some people use it to refer to the "wrong sort" of Jews. Some people use it to refer to the government of Israel. Some people use it to refer to the idea of a Jewish homeland. Some people use it to refer to AIPAC. Some people use it as a catch-all for the "bad guys" behind whatever conspiracy theory or theories they believe in. Posted by: bonhomme at May 20, 2026 03:22 PM (mkw2N) 261
Shout-out to WordWeb, the dictionary app that works outside a browser. You don't have to switch to a different tab, and you don't have to open a browser and webpage; just highlight a word a ctrl-alt-w or ctrl-right-click.
It's free if you take no more than one round-trip flight per year, otherwise you are morally obligated to buy the Pro version. And while the default upper tab is an offline dictionary/thesaurus, you can switch to other upper tabs for Wikipedia and Wiktionary. But the big thing is that they have added an AI feature that is actually useful. For example, in the last thread, XTC mentioned 'wignats' and I was baffled. What, like the Founders, nationalists in wigs? But WordWeb cleared it up: >> AI suggestions: >> This is a slang portmanteau of "wigger" and "nationalist" used primarily on the internet to describe a white nationalist or neo-Nazi who exhibits behavior, aesthetics, or subcultural traits associated with hip-hop or urban culture. I probably could've gotten that from the Urban Dictionary, but then I would've had to switch tabs and find the UD bookmark and yadda yadda. It's genuinely convenient: https://wordweb.info/ Posted by: SciVo at May 20, 2026 03:22 PM (Sy6m/) 262

Communism (and the Democrats are Commies in all but name) is an inversion of Christianity. Communism purports to help the poor and downtrodden. BUT requires the commission of the Sins of Pride, Wrath, Envy and Theft. Since they focus on material possessions, they do not see other people as human persons: only as things to be used or destroyed as required. Thus, the mass-murder is a feature, not a bug: Utopia is only a few million executions away.

We like to think that, like this place, the world is a place where there can be reasonable dissent and discussion of difference. That is largely unfounded for probably 80+ % of society. These people are so insulated in their beliefs and inoculated from any sort of moral correction - by choice and by design - that this nuttery can easily go unchecked.

I don't think I have that many teeth. I love that Massie is whining today like a weenie. We are doomed! Read in the UK DM that the now fat lesbo looking former Dixie Chick who drove their band to the dump about GWB is squawking again. About Trump, of course. Her hair looks like Daniel Boone's racoon's tail glued on top of lesbo head. She appears to have eaten the other two Dixie Chicks from the size of her. Why on earth do actors or singers think they influence anyone? All she got from popping out of her hovel was vast mocking that I upvoted vs being productive. You have to look at the photo of her hair as it is unique (and probably smells like the city dump or LA sidewalks on a hot summer day).

6. True believers die next.
High level KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov could not have stated it more clearly: “They [truly ideological communists] are instrumental in the process of subversion only to destabilize the nation. When their job is completed they are not needed anymore . . . They think they will come to power. Of course, that will never happen. They will be lined up against the wall and shot. It’s the same pattern everywhere. The moment they serve their purpose, all the useful idiots will either be executed entirely — all the idealistically minded marxists — or exiled, or put in prisons, like in Cuba . . . Most of the idiots which were cooperating with the Soviets, especially with our Department of Information of the USSR embassy, were listed for execution.” Posted by: Comrade Flounder, Disinformation Demon at May 20, 2026 03:02 PM (dK+Kv) Thank you, Comrade Flounder, for that link.

Sorry for harkening back to the previous thread [ Massie ] also claimed he had conducted himself "with honor" and had not thrown a "single foul ball," which... doesn't make sense. You can throw a strike and you can throw a ball but you can't throw a foul ball. You hit a foul ball.

House Democrats plan to oppose a bill to establish terms for building a Smithsonian women’s history museum on the National Mall because Republicans added language to limit its subjects to biological females. The House is set to vote on the bill Thursday. It’s expected to pass with some bipartisan support but far fewer Democratic votes than a previous bipartisan version of the bill would have earned. The drop in Democratic support could jeopardize the measure’s chances of passing the Senate, where it would need support from at least seven Democrats to clear a filibuster.

Frank employed a male prostitute as a personal aide, then fired him when he learned in 1989 that the man was operating an escort service out of the congressman’s apartment. The two originally met when Frank answered an ad in the Washington Blade that read, “Hot bottom plus large endowment equals a good time.”
Frank sought to portray himself as a dutiful liberal trying to help a poor lost soul. The Ethics Committee, after a lengthy investigation, found him guilty of fixing the man’s parking tickets but not having sex in the House gym; he was reprimanded by his colleagues and still serves in Congress. - Politico, of all places.

Posted by: Harry Vandenburg at May 20, 2026 01:33 PM (qrzX6) Agreed. It's the smug look he has every single time he's in front of a camera. Posted by: XTC at May 20, 2026 01:37 PM (iXqHn) The worst smug look he gave was over 40 years ago when he was sitting slumped in his chair listening to the testimony of a woman whose parents had been murdered in front of her at a Luby's (sic?) restaurant in Waco TX. (It was one of the first mass shootings as I recall). Her testimony was riveting as she described many people being murdered and knowing that she had left her hand-gun in the car because it was "illegal" to carry inside. Schumer's bored look enrages me to this day. Posted by: Chairborne!...Desk From Above! at May 20, 2026 02:06 PM (U4hpE) 180

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) just posted its best year-to-date fundraising numbers in Committee history, hauling in a total of $57.6 million, capped by a strong $10.4 million in April alone.
The historic haul is the latest proof of a cycle-long trend: House Republicans continue dominating Democrats in the money race. From the NRCC continuing to outraise the DCCC, to the NRCC raking in its strongest Q1 in history, and swing-district Republicans continuing to outraise vulnerable House Democrats.

House Democrats plan to oppose a bill to establish terms for building a Smithsonian women’s history museum on the National Mall because Republicans added language to limit its subjects to biological females. The House is set to vote on the bill Thursday. It’s expected to pass with some bipartisan support but far fewer Democratic votes than a previous bipartisan version of the bill would have earned. The drop in Democratic support could jeopardize the measure’s chances of passing the Senate, where it would need support from at least seven Democrats to clear a filibuster.

Posted by: banana Dream You need the better quality ones that automatically adjust cooking time based on the moisture level of the cooking rice. YumAsia makes a Panda version that is excellent (does other things too like steam veggies, porridge, etc.). Use their cup for measuring rice, add water to the line. and Voila. The Panda is fine for two people to four, they make a larger one for bigger families. Another reminder is to rinse the rice before cooking as it softens the rice prior to being put in.

-------- Measure both ingredients by weight and rinse your rice under coldish waterz preferably in a sieve. Jasmine rice ratio is 1.25 water for every 1 of rice (all by weight, so 12 oz rice to 15 oz water). Basmati is 1.5. If you rinse your rice though you need to account for the water you already added to it which will be a couple oz taken off your water measurement. Posted by: ... at May 20, 2026 02:23 PM (h2pEv) 257

Warnock is an assclown. The Senate isn’t supposed to be “democratic”. He doesn’t belong there.
Hell, “Democracy” isn’t even mentioned, not once, in the Declaration of Independence nor the Constitution nor the Bill of Rights It’s mainly a post WWII affectation in the public discourse. Wilson tried to make hay with it I suppose. Scholars have ever derided “Democracy” as totally unworkable. Mobocracy.

Depends if you are desktop or mobile. Iphone brave doesn't do the hq anymore. It will freeze the whole phone and crash brave. Posted by: banana Dream Safari and apple suck on their browser. Reason why I don't use apple products as safari is subpar crapware and they won't allow others to create anything other than a shell over the Safari code. Brave is just a shell over Safari on Apple as are other skins but the underlying browser code is Safari. I am not sure that another native browser can work without circumventing Apple's cage around apps. Brave is a shell over Chrome as is Vivaldi, Edge, (Opera is now I think) and the other major browser that still uses its own code is Firefox. There are some oddballs out there mainly for niche users like Supermium, etc. Apple makes damn good hardware but it is intentionally a gated garden which makes interconnectivity outside that garden far harder than it needs to be and much more expensive.

Has a short grain/long grain button and brown rice along with porridge and other settings. And at least the version I have, also makes lower carb rice by cooking off some of the starches. Beeps when it approaches 10 minutes left and then counts down until done. Japanese Toshiba, Panasonic, and some others make top notch rice cookers with all the bells and whistles but I find the YumAsia cooker easier to use.

____________ Which is more prevalent, governors who quit to become senators or senators who quit to become governors? If you have an itch for national issues, it's the first. But being a senator can become boring and if you want executive power, it's the second. Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh at May 20, 2026 02:17 PM (HdYcL) Being governor is generally a more difficult but more rewarding job. We can do a quick and dirty job comparison and say that since there’s 435 Congressmen but only 100 Senators, each Senator is worth 4.35 Congressmen. But there’s only 50 Governors, so each one of them is worth 2 Senators. Of course some are more equal than others. Posted by: Tom Servo at May 20, 2026 02:33 PM (TH/2I) 307

Measure both ingredients by weight and rinse your rice under coldish waterz preferably in a sieve. Jasmine rice ratio is 1.25 water for every 1 of rice (all by weight, so 12 oz rice to 15 oz water). Basmati is 1.5.
If you rinse your rice though you need to account for the water you already added to it which will be a couple oz taken off your water measurement. Posted by: ... at May 20, 2026 02:23 PM (h2pEv) Huh? I just use the pre-measured cup that comes with the cooker (Zojirushi) and raise water level after rinsing to the pre-marked cooking vessel and depress the cook button. Basmati, Jasmine, Long Grain, Calrose, it don't matter. I even make Spanish Rice in it, using the specified ingredients and raising the liquid amount to the mark with water. The overflow collector and design of the machine to account for minute differences in amounts of water. If I was having that much trouble, I would consider a different machine.

292 I never rinsed rice in my life. Recently started rinsing it.
I see no difference Posted by: dagny ======= One reason is to reduce the arsenic levels as rice does pick up that from soils and pollutants. The second is that it does soften the rice a bit for cooking, washes away some of the starchy bits and husk bits, and other less desirable detritus. If you get into a conversation with Asians, they will split into rinse and no rinse and start arguing about it. I do it, it works for me, and will continue to do it. You do whatever you want to do. Instant rice, however, you will see no benefit other than removing detritus as it is parboiled so it cooks a lot faster. In essence, somewhat prewashed already.

Never heard of the arsenic risk, but it does prevent the rice from being so sticky, where that is a potential concern.
Posted by: Comrade Flounder Switch to Riceland brand American long grain white rice if that is a concern. Less starchy. All Jasmine rice is starchy by intention. Basmati has less starch as well. Posted by: whig at May 20, 2026 02:44 PM (E4rtv) 339
>>>Jasmine rice from Thailand and basmati rice from India are considered varieties of rice with lower arsenic levels. Ditto for rice grown in California, including types of sushi rice and Calrose rice.

Things to watch out for:
Old rice Bad water - too much minerals in your water can change cooking method ?? What make is the rice cooker?? Chineseum is not conducive to good stuff. Posted by: weft cut-loop at May 20, 2026 02:22 PM Worse than old rice is rice that has been used in a rear bag for long-range precision rifle competitions.

My understanding of white rice washing is it was to remove talcum powder from the grains that was used in the polishing process.
Since talcum powder is no longer used, washing is optional, and some recommend not doing it. Posted by: Duncanthrax at May 20, 2026 02:51 PM (0sNs1) 342

After reading above I am amazed I am not somehow dead from rice. Altho I don't recall eating left over rice except cooked in something and from fridge. I could be dead and not know it!
It gets frozen as well if mixed with meat. The main thing I avoid is restaurant lettuce. I eye everything after Salmonella from lettuce. This is why I lose weight when traveling, even in France. We also walk a lot so there's that. I survive on bread, cheese, some fruit I determine is washed and wine. Sons and husband would eat roadkill and proved it in Scotland with blood puddings and Haggis they consumed yet lived.

After Massie further accused SEAL hero Ed Gallrein of being an ISRAELI ASSET -- does anyone remember the RUSSIAN AGENT hoax? -- Gallrein had enough and blasted him. He had a positive message as well.

Trump is the person who kept the movement from being bifurcated by this op, make no mistake.
He did it on the day he shouted about the "crazies" in his movement, which had a lot of people here questioning what he was doing and what was wrong with him. Remember? Because all some people wanted was just to know about Epstein. Turned out he was bang on. What he did was dictate the size and shape of the split they were manufacturing. And he did it by doing something they never expected. The entirety of his second term and the future of this country hinged on the day he seemingly went mental in a press conference and began criticizing his own followers. And the magic thing about the way he does things is practically nobody knows, other than his opponents whose years long plan he blew apart in an afternoon.

And how she was espousing these right wing, traditional family values lifestyle (wait for marriage, etc) while the entire time banging elijah schaefer while her fiance had no idea. AND she kept the engagement AND affair going through pregnancy scares, etc. The thing is, the shit she was peddling is actually a good idea (at least the themes.) SHE just never believed in it, obviously. She's a fake. Just like the Quartering or Chrissy Mayer. People get dejected when this stuff comes out and think it somehow tars the values. NO, it just shows people are fake and shit. The VALUES are actually vindicated by how these people live.

Whining about "Israel" is so lucrative that you can be omnipresent in Podcastistan and even Fox News despite having served jail time for leaking highly classified secrets. (See: Kiriakou, John.) And openly, proudly admitting that your podcast is published by the Russians "because they pay me". All as a flex against another former CIA agent podcaster who made the Russian observation. Kiriakou's a strange guy. He got into intel through being a political staffer. Centrist Donk type. Hates the Clintons, Brennan, Obama, Kerry with a passion that exceeds even the most reactionary conservative deathbeast. Not because they're anti-American traitorous scumbags, but because they all screwed him over in his career. Posted by: IllTemperedCur at May 20, 2026 12:40 PM (y9nCu) 91

Joel Mowbray says that Massie knew he was going to lose for weeks -- and that he went full antisemite in the closing days not to gain voters, but to advertise his upcoming podcast.
== Strongly disagree! I saw that and...NO! Massie really thought he was going to win. He won before with like 60% or something. He though he had it in the bag! His plan was to win, make himself even a bigger ass (if that is possible), then quit after 2026, and only then join the podcastian losers...maybe. NO man expects to lose, especially egomaniac narcissist like Massie! You could read the whole thing on his new wife's mug. I am a professional amateur physiognomist, and I can tell you, they expected to eek it out! He was leading up until a few weeks ago.

38 Why is there so many anti-semitic members of Congress??
Good grief, it makes me sad. Posted by: dantesed Because Congress has descended into a reality show built for TV. When you see the members of Congress, they are basically front men for a corporation complete with investors (donors), messaging shop (in house or donor linked), constituency service (marketing), and produce a product. Sometimes legislation but a lot more position taking and credit claiming. They don't legislate (lobbyists and a small core of leadership and committee staffers do), they simply are the public face of that firm named after them. There are exceptions to the rule but mostly they serve the same scripted parts for themselves that their donors and/or political controllers want. Safe to say we have a Congress of dunces where the few rare high iq individuals are brought down by the below average iq Senator Hirono or Murray. And yet, like most CEOs, they have their asses kissed and boo boos fixed by staffers, comm teams, and donors so their ego gets way out of hand. That is why Congress is so bad, it has become a reality show with little if no attention paid to governance. Posted by: whig at May 20, 2026 12:48 PM (E4rtv) 134

Sean David: Massie went from principled libertarian during COVID, to GOP leadership lapdog under McCarthy, to anti-Trump Epstein obsessive in 2025 after tweeting about that issue a whopping three (3) times in the decade prior. The nail in the coffin for him was voting against OBBB in 2025 because, according to Massie, it did too much to secure the border.
Trump mercilessly trashed Massie in 2020–calling him a “disaster” for America and Kentucky and saying he should be thrown out of the GOP entirely—but Massie easily swatted that away and won 81-19, so you can’t say he only lost because of Trump. He went toe-to-toe with Trump on COVID in 2020 and won overwhelmingly. Massie lost because he went from being perceived as a quirky but lovable nerd who seemed to genuinely believe everything he said, to looking like a clout-chasing influencer who cared more about getting TV time with Democrats on an issue he clearly never cared about until five minutes ago than he did about representing his voters.

Apology. I meant to say Sean Davis Nails it: Sean David: Massie went from principled libertarian during COVID, to GOP leadership lapdog under McCarthy, to anti-Trump Epstein obsessive in 2025 after tweeting about that issue a whopping three (3) times in the decade prior. The nail in the coffin for him was voting against OBBB in 2025 because, according to Massie, it did too much to secure the border.
Trump mercilessly trashed Massie in 2020–calling him a “disaster” for America and Kentucky and saying he should be thrown out of the GOP entirely—but Massie easily swatted that away and won 81-19, so you can’t say he only lost because of Trump. He went toe-to-toe with Trump on COVID in 2020 and won overwhelmingly. Massie lost because he went from being perceived as a quirky but lovable nerd who seemed to genuinely believe everything he said, to looking like a clout-chasing influencer who cared more about getting TV time with Democrats on an issue he clearly never cared about until five minutes ago than he did about representing his voters.

>>>So he's a Gay Nerd Who Doesn't Watch Baseball, too.
lol That's what really important. And on that topic. Little's team went 9-2 at home, where our pitching completely shut them down. Little pitched the first three and gave up one hit, one run, relying on reading the batter, using the zone, control, and fastball changeup combo, striking the same batter out on the same combo (fouled back 2nd strike, changeup whiff 3rd strike). Our second pitcher relies on overpowering the batters and gave up one HBP, unfortunately, and one run on PB. We managed to finally string together some plays, whereas our outfield was moving as needed for the situation. And our catching improved dramatically over last game with a bunch of catcher drills.

From the EMR thread - I was never great at Math, but I did OK. There were a lot of distractions on my time as I recall, and a disciplined environment might have made a difference. No, I probably would haven’t been the next Johnny Von Neumann, but as I recall I discovered girls about that time, too.
It would cause howls of protest but I think Co-Ed classes are not a good idea, they should be divided by sex, and yes ability groups. In fact the very reason Johnny Von Neumann excelled at Math and physics is Hungary had a first class education system. Early on, in grade school, his math teacher recognized he was something special, and he (the teacher) couldn’t provide what he deserved. He was tracked into an accelerated program. Anyone who cannot recognize this as a valid policy should be thrown off a cliff, especially if they claim to be an “educator”. Posted by: Common Tater at May 20, 2026 12:55 PM (uGukK) 166

Posted by: runner I think both Massie and GOPe fail to recognize that negative tactics and bloviating only go so far. There is always a segment of the population that essentially buys whatever propaganda is put before them--if someone else said it, then it must be true sort of thing. GOPe uses negative ads to drive turnout lower but it serves as a smokescreen for doing nothing in office other than donor stroking. Massie went negative about the Jews, Israel, etc. because he thought it would play to what he probably thought of as ignorant hicks in his district and he resented AIPAC getting involved in taking him out. And probably at some point, he got to believing his own bullshit or was just extremely cynical about it. My guess is he becomes a commentator on podcastistan rather than a conventional media type and late in his campaign was an audition for the sort of audience he thinks will make that successful. A bunch of losers and whiners that want to blame their own lack of what they want on others. Same as the left does. Posted by: whig at May 20, 2026 12:55 PM (E4rtv) 168

People think the hard part is getting a good theme, topics, and guests...oh and publicly speaking well. But its not - as you note plenty of people that aren't good at those things do well. The real trick is getting eyeballs/listeners. Taylor Swift is an example of something similar to this. Is she a singular musical talent? No. Is she a drop dead gorgeous piece of eye candy? Also no. But she has enough talent and enough looks. And the real cause of her success? She is a great capitalist pig dog. One of the all time great female capitalist pig dogs.

They are told AI will replace their jobs, they are often shut out of the sexual marketplace for female relationships (cost and online hypergamous dating), and feel that what desirable jobs are out there are being outsourced or taken by H1Bs, etc. They look at a future life of downward mobility and want someone to blame for it. Those outside of the college occupations are probably the happier and better adjusted--they are not looking for assortative mating as much as college guys are, not online as much, and many of their jobs are harder to outsource and not profitable anymore for the immigration jobs racket visas.

Massie was always like a Graham Platner to me.
Thomas Massie (the libertarian Republican from Kentucky) and Graham Platner (the progressive Democratic Senate nominee in Maine) have built their political identities around being blue-collar, populist "everymen" who challenge their respective party establishments. The "everyman" persona functions similarly for both politicians, though from opposite sides of the ideological aisle: Thomas Massie (R-KY): Known for wearing grease-stained jeans, living off the grid, and casting lone-wolf votes against both Democrats and the GOP leadership. His brand of "trans-partisan" liberty and resistance to traditional political machinery resonated heavily with working-class conservatives. Graham Platner (D-ME): The 41-year-old Marine Corps veteran and oyster farmer has upended Maine politics by running a populist, working-class campaign. He frequently leans into his non-traditional background and raw, everyman appeal to bypass Washington insiders and connect directly with voters. Both men have found massive, fervent bases of support by projecting authenticity in an age where voters are largely distrustful of polished, career politicians.(AI) Posted by: L - No nic, another fine day at May 20, 2026 01:04 PM (NFX2v) 213

Showing her hoo-ha could mean a lot of things. What are we talking? She lifted her skirt on the dance floor? Wearing or not wearing underwear? Or are we talking an intimate tour with physical contact? If she just lifted her skirt while wearing underwear and waggled her hips a bit, meh. Loads of people get blasted drunk at their wedding. That's about as intimate as seeing a woman at the beach. Posted by: bonhomme at May 20, 2026 01:08 PM (mkw2N) 227

Honest to God? I thought Schlitz was gone decades ago.
Pabst Brewing to discontinue historic Schlitz beer after 177 years One of America's most storied lagers is pouring its final pint — and a Wisconsin brewer wants to send it off right. MILWAUKEE — After 177 years, it's last call for one of America's oldest beer brands. Pabst Brewing Co. confirmed that it is discontinuing Schlitz, "the beer that made Milwaukee famous." Wisconsin Brewing Co. announced it will brew the last batch at its facility in Verona, Wis., on May 23. The final batch is scheduled for a limited release June 27, along with a larger celebration event at the brewery. https://tinyurl.com/3pr9dtd9 Posted by: rickb223 at May 20, 2026 01:10 PM (+hIS8) 241

80% of voters want it and yes a critical number of Massie-holes in the GOP won't vote for it...
Posted by: 18-1 ======== I think the reason is that it requires the GOPe Senate to give up the illusion of the filibuster. That gives shitheads like Murkowski, etc. cover to avoid votes that expose their naked asses to the voters and allows them to stuff bills with pork for donors. The donors in turn reward their politicians and families. House has already voted several times for the SAVE act--the dysfunction is in a group of senators that Mitch cultivated, funded, and will lose office (or have to ignore donors) if they have to vote honestly. Mitch set this up so he could orchestrate pay for play with Schumer but both parties could avoid doing what their voters wanted. The filibuster was never intended to kill bills but rather to make sure that they were debated if controversial. Over time, it became a convenient way for Senators to get fantastically wealthy by directing vast streams of government money to donors who then repaid the Senators with generational wealth.

Intelligence gathering is the most important thing any nation can do. Washington himself was our first Spymaster, really. The early USA spent something like 15% of the budget on spooks and intelligence gathering.
The Brits wrote the book on it. They have always been careful to spy on everyone, and not be too mindful about sharing.

So were "legal walls." Remember those? That was when cities would - and sometimes still do - put up big concrete walls specifically for vandals to tag. The idea was the same: provide a legal place to perform illegal activity, thus transforming it from crime into non-crime. The thesis behind that was that graffiti is about art, rather than vandalism. If the city just provides an outlet for these brilliant artists, vandalism will disappear.

Criminal activity does not stop being criminal activity because it is sanctioned.
I am trying to think of a counter argument (one that mirrors the libs) and I think I found one: Demolition Derby. Guys build cars or take cars that are on their last legs and build them up and then crash them into each other. The DIFFERENCE here is that it satisfies BOTH sides of the dude. The creation aspect (this will be so cool when I put this car together, it is going to rule) as well as the physical Crunch. Dudes need that visceral feedback (especially at a certain age.) The thing with this is that the creation side is not fostered (because the state builds the arena and stocks it with shit to destroy.) It ONLY fosters the destructive side and says THATS ok.

Protecting the law abiding from criminals is the only reason the state exists. Once the state takes the side of the criminals, it's time to dissolve the state.

So were "legal walls." Remember those? That was when cities would - and sometimes still do - put up big concrete walls specifically for vandals to tag. The idea was the same: provide a legal place to perform illegal activity, thus transforming it from crime into non-crime. The thesis behind that was that graffiti is about art, rather than vandalism. If the city just provides an outlet for these brilliant artists, vandalism will disappear. So the walls went up. The walls got tagged. Vandalism didn't decrease.
-- This is the first I've ever heard of this brilliant program. How utterly, unbelievably stupid. Yes, Democrats are ruthless, lying and deceitful in the extreme, but they are also quite possibly the dumbest people to ever exist. They have zero concept of human behavior, which is why their ideas are always ridiculous flops whose intentions are never materialized in the way they glorify them.

The left believes in nothing it claims to believe in.
For example, gun crime is out of control and must by stopped! So they build gun shot monitors in urban areas. Which helps the police arrest criminals. But...the left doesn't care about "gun crime" and those criminals belong to the cartels they are part of. So...the gunshot monitors have to go Their claimed beliefs are pushed up against their real beliefs and the latter will always win. Posted by: 18-1 at May 20, 2026 11:39 AM (sKqQm) 170

"This idea doesn't work. It has never worked. It will never work. "
No the idea works, and has always worked, and works great. Because the idea is to destroy our civilization so they can sit on a throne atop the rubble. Stop taking them at face value. There has been no coexistence with the progs since 1917 when they decided they were permanently and overwhelmingly correct. Nothing they say is in good faith. There is no recovery from that, or making peace with it, as a movement. Some individuals MIGHT recover. Posted by: heya at May 20, 2026 12:22 PM (nH+RN) 306

298 I barely survived Algebra II, and completely bombed out on Trig. A person of even average intelligence should at least make it through Calculus before graduating High School.
Posted by: XTC at May 20, 2026 12:11 PM (uEmCf) Math is mostly... thinking in the right way. And like most subjects WHO is teaching really matters. The first time in college I took algebra II was with a guy named Bo Guan. It was dry, it did not sing to me, so I dropped it. The second time was with a Spaniard I think IU abducted off the streets of Madrid. For whatever reason though, that guy made it sing for me. I did MUCH better. Posted by: Aetius451AD at May 20, 2026 12:20 PM (bss/y) The manner and the substance of math instruction make all the difference in the world. There are lot of people who were never taught the fundamentals in any meaningful way, then get thrown into higher math and just drown. Or the subject is taught not in a systematic building block way but in an "if you don't understand how to do this without any meaningful instruction you're stupid" way.

Take the feral yutes, put 15 in a cage with an equivalent number of Pagans or Hells Angels who are being paid in their preferred token of exchange. 15 get to leave the cage, but only when 15 others are beaten unconscious.

Daumier is another social commenting artist who is so damn frustrating. He is capable of wonderful images. I saw a couple of his portraits that are realistic and touching and pleasant to look at. But most of his political cartoons and social commentary paintings are grotesque or at least smirking and exaggerated. They are evocative of what he wants to convey but too much of his intentions are negative and ugly. It's tiresome for the viewer, at least for me.
Today's selection isn't as bad as many of Daumier's works, it's just illustrative, which is an improvement. Posted by: JTB at May 20, 2026 09:49 AM (yTvNw) 75

FWIW, I have seen repeated mentions of a poll where the deceptive infographic has been passed around. Last night, bored, so did some digging.
The infographic has age breakouts of the Massie race but too many people are claiming it was an exit poll. It was not. It came from a firm called BigDataPoll and uses a mixed model of texting about 400 identified voters in Kentucky 4 that they deemed likely to vote, the person is sent a text and then fills it out online at a website or texts answers back. This is called an interactive poll by the firm. BigDataPoll did a tracking poll of Kentucky 4 and this was intended solely for win/lose Massie, not for subgroups, And the poll failed its 95 percent confidence interval with the actual result greater than the +-4 percent claimed. The poll also had an issue where 82 percent claimed they were likely to vote while turnout was about 33 percent in reality. So you get non-random sample, numbers too small for demographic cohort information to be valid (50-100 respondents is not enough in a pool for a valid response), and other issues. You can go to BigDataPolls directly and read the poll breakout itself. Posted by: whig at May 20, 2026 10:06 AM (E4rtv) 129

The Third-Class Carriage, ca. 1856–1858
Honoré Daumier Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco Honoré Daumier painted many pictures of passengers on trains, a new form of transport in the nineteenth century. The growth of France's rail network made travel swifter and more accessible, but the journey was not the same for everyone. Railway companies separated passengers into three classes through a tiered ticketing system that corresponded to the level of comfort onboard. Here Daumier depicted travelers who have paid the lowest fare: a peasant mother and child, an old woman, and a worker in a rumpled smock. Crowded together in a dark compartment, these careworn figures exemplify Daumier’s uncompromising Realism. It has been widely displayed in the US and Paris. --- A universal painting. Thanks.

You do not get the results you got in Indiana, Louisiana, and Kentucky with a sitting President in the low 30s approval rating. Therefore, the polls are fake... https://tinyurl.com/3xke4awf Posted by: Archimedes ======= I've seen that take as well. Agree with it. Media polling is to drive a narrative, not results. Back when I was an informed user of polls (for independent variables in big data models), I learned what was good and bad in polling circa early 2000's. Had a friend that was setting up a statewide poll and had worked for Harris etc. as a polling director (supervisor of the survey crew). Later, our uni set up a polling op using students as interviewers. The sampling math is still the same but the techniques have changed because non-response bias was killing the old Random Digit Dialing and good pollsters knew it by 2010. So you get a weird mix of texts, calls, and so on and trying really hard to infer who likely voters are. Polls can give you trends nowadays but unlikely to give a great response on the horserace without really big random samples (about 1000 or so). Posted by: whig at May 20, 2026 10:17 AM (E4rtv) 170

Posted by: I gotta ask ======== With enough money and time, you can do it. Media polling and free shit on the internet polling skimps on that. Boring to get into the details but you have to triangulate using mixed methods. You need a map survey on foot where a specific geographic slice is picked to interview all people living there, you use this to correct your polling list sample on who is actually a voter and their demographics, and you have to track them to see if they voted. More to it than that but figure polls only useful for trend analysis--whose up or down, not for a specific number. And state/district polling is awful unless you get a peak at private polling for candidates. Those can be the gold standard but even there are getting a lot of problems getting a good sample of actual voters. Posted by: whig at May 20, 2026 10:21 AM (E4rtv) 189

Former Democrat Rep. Barney Frank has passed away. He was 86 years old. Last month it was reported that Barney Frank was in hospice care at his home in Maine, where he resided with his husband. Frank was suffering from congestive heart failure.

YD, the center votes for peace and stability is kind of my point. They'll see what I think will be a horror show this summer and move towards Republicans, adding to the support Trump supplies
Posted by: Smell the Glove at May 20, 2026 10:26 AM (gu0hJ) A Democrat loss guarantees two more years of riots, assassinations, and arson. Trump's best move would be to deploy troops against rioters. It's not pretty, but it demonstrates ability to maintain order - which is what sheep crave. I don't think riots last more than 48 hours once a few dozen people get shot. They only do it because it's a consequence free environment. Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at May 20, 2026 10:34 AM (BI5O2) Posted by: Sponge - F*ck Cancer at May 20, 2026 10:34 AM (QX6xo) 218

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be actually something which I think I would never understand.
It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I'm looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it! Posted by: Discover More at May 20, 2026 06:02 PM (a94dZ) The Morning Report — 5/ 20/26
Good morning kids. Let's start off with the cancerous existential threat that is the Anti-American Left and its epicenter the Democrat party. I'm beyond revolted and horrified to the point of being apoplectic and blood-boiling enraged at this as anyone with even a scintilla of common decency and an understanding of history and human nature would and should be. The top Democrat in a southern Texas House race, sex therapist Maureen Galindo, has called for transforming an immigration facility into a “prison for American Zionists” equipped with a castration center. Galindo’s campaign made a vile pledge that she will introduce legislation to that effect if she gets elected to Congress after baselessly alleging her Dem runoff foe was “being paid to put Jews and Mexicans in concentration camps via Zionist trafficking networks.” “When Maureen gets into Congress, she’ll write legislation so that all Zionism and support of Zionism is undoubtedly Anti-Semitic, since it’s Zionism harming the Semites,” her campaign wrote on Instagram last week.The sex therapist candidate called to transform an ICE facility into a prison for American Zionists. Yet her remarks about dumping Zionists into an ICE facility sound a lot like putting Jews in warehouses. “The standard that Democrats rightly apply to right-wing antisemites must apply equally to left-wing Jew-haters,” the watchdog group StopAntisemitism said in a statement. “Democratic leaders must clearly, publicly denounce these bigots infecting their party without hedging. “They must decline to appear on platforms with Hasan Piker. They must stop winking at extremist voices and truly stand for the principles they claim to stand for.” Galindo was the top Democrat in the March primary election, with 29.2% support to Garcia’s 27%. Since no one got a majority, the two advanced to a runoff election next Tuesday. . . . . .Throughout the campaign cycle, Galindo has railed against Zionists. She’s also attacked “Jews who own Hollywood,” something that is a well-known anti-Semitic trope.I wonder if Galindo came up with that brainwave about forcibly castrating Jews all on her own or if she stole it directly from the minutes of the 1942 Wannsee Conference regarding the Nazis Final Solution of the Jewish Question?! For those who do not know, before they decided to exterminate the roughly 11 million Jews of Europe they expected to be under their control once they conquered Europe from the Channel to the Urals, they thought those that wouldn't be worked to death building roads and munitions would have their genitals bombarded with X-rays so they could be sure no Jews would survive. The mass shootings of the Einzatzgruppen were viewed as too cruel — not for the victims but for the executioners, you see Graham Platner's Totenkopf tattoo is vile enough (and that he's a literal jerk-off!) but this evil slag is illustrative now of a growing segment of not just the leadership of the Democrat Party but far too many in its base. On further reflection, I don't think Galindo is aware of the details of Wansee let alone the reality of the extermination of over 6 million Jews as well as other racial or political enemies of the Nazis. I think she dreamed up mass sterilization all on her own. Let's face the unsettling truth in that she is not an outlier or one-off. She is not only a Leftist but one who is seeking political office and has the backing of the Democrat Party leadership. Shredding the Constitution and erasing our history is merely the first step. Ultimately, they know that they will have to eradicate us physically in order to make sure we never rise again. So, if this Galindo cancer were to be struck by a bolt of lightning or were to accidentally blow herself up in a tax-evasion scheme or Hamas bomb factory... or be hit by a bus crossing the street or get a reverse Luigi Mangione treatment (nudge nudge wink wink) I would not shed a tear and in fact would roundly applaud it. I do not condone violence. But waiting until after we're forced to wear a yellow star is a non-starter. My own family's World War 2 experience is now underscored by Democrat/Leftist acts of political and physical terrorism in its lust for absolute power. Something must be done to stop this and stop them. Appealing to the better angels of their nature, forget it . . . they have none. Evil must be confronted and eradicated. For bringing us to the brink of the abyss, there isn't a Hell hot enough for them to roast in. Elsewhere , Last night looked to be a good night for the President and the conservative movement in general with several key primary victories. Most gratifying of all was the kicking to the curb of scumbag deluxe Tom Massie. And then there's still Iran: Citing the leaders of Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, he said “serious negotiations with Iran are now taking place” and expressed confidence in a deal which he vowed “will include “NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR IRAN.”So okay, but I'm still waiting for the OR ELSE part of this to take effect. As of now it sure seems as if President Trump is doing the Obama red line boogaloo. Feh. Have a good day.

Posted by: Ben Had at May 20, 2026 08:16 AM (5P5DO) There is no need to destroy infrastructure.

Far more oil than just Iran’s is shut in right now, including most Iraqi and Kuwaiti production.

--- Oh yeah, the RINOs are very upset. Somehow "votes with Trump 99% of the time" isn't convincing the voters that the 1% is not important. So they're going hard on "now we'll have to spend millions to hold TX--money that could have gone to other close races!" Oh, you mean how you wasted $100 million trying to save Cornyn? Or how, in 2020 (or was it 2024?) McConnell sent $5 million to help Murkowski--who was not in a close race--and $0 to help Keri Lake? Let's just say your priority management of limited campaign funds is not an argument in your favor. Posted by: People's Hippo Voice at May 20, 2026 08:36 AM (73/SM) 180

Norway: First Grader Discovers 1,300-Year-Old Sword During School Trip to ‘Land of the Warrior’

That is why I am your king! Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.

A neighboring county (rural) here in KY has been fighting an internal battle between residents and local government about putting one in. Acres of farmland gone. Families displaced. It will consume the entire residential water supply daily and draw more electrical power than the existing population there. Yet... there's an abandoned Ford EV battery plant down the road.

The deployment, the full scale of which is reported here for the first time, was confirmed by three security officials and two government sources, all of whom described it as a substantial, combat-capable force intended to support Saudi Arabia’s military if the kingdom comes under further attack.”

I'm truly surprised by the amount of complaining on our side over Trump's strategy with Iran. This is a country that has been at war with us for 50 years both directly and through their proxy terror armies. They have cost us way more than $1.50/gallon for the last have decade with their various terror tactics including aiding the rise of China with cheap gas and funding Hamas including in Venezuela.
At some point in the very near future Trump will either get a deal that he and our newly energized partners in the ME, none of who will make nice with the mullahs again, will either get a deal or Iran will be bombed into submission. But after the bombing there will still be fallout to deal with. Bombing a major supplier of oil on the world market into a pancake does not come without a cost. Trump has either earned your trust with all he has done over the last decade or not. He's dealing with a very complex situation not just Iran's fate but well beyond that.

While Epstein was a scoundrel to the rich and famous, in terms of real effect on my life, he was non-existent. Epstein did interrupt the lives of a few dozen folks, last I checked there are over 300 million folks in this country that the Congress doesn't seem to be helping at all.

I am going to repost this, excellent summary @breibart:
"It’s hard to overstate how big of a thorn in Trump’s side Massie has been – and how great of a victory Gallrein’s win is for the president. Massie has opposed Trump on every significant initiative he has proposed. He voted against bills to keep Trump’s government funded and opened. He voted against the Big, Beautiful Bill, the historic package containing the bulk of Trump’s campaign platform.He partnered with radical Democrat Ro Khanna from California to force through a bill ostensibly to release what is known as the Epstein files, but which instead caused trouble for Trump – who is not credibly accused of any wrongdoing and has been revealed to have been one of the first prominent celebrities to sound the alarm on Epstein, even banning him from Mar-A-Lago – and halted his agenda, while resulting in no additional perpetrators being brought to justice. Put simply, no Democrat has been as effective as stopping Trump’s agenda as Thomas Massie has been. And now, after Trump went all-in to take him out, his political career is over...The price was high in dollars ..but the investment was worth every penny for Trump."

I will only say that pausing combat operations until objectives were met is a major mistake. There is a lot of doctrine which agrees with me. I understand we moved to a siege mentality. That takes time because the goal is to break their will. But they are getting resupply and support from the outside, and militias who are keeping the citizens from ending it. This was all predictable and I’m sure CiNC was advised. But I think he underestimates a fickle public with no patience for war and what it takes to win. YMMV.

California’s $7 Million Police Transparency Website Missing Cases Post 2024
A police transparency project based out of the University of California Berkeley started off strong but has since fizzled out as law enforcement fights the release of records. Director Lisa Pickoff-White says the project must constantly fight police agencies for records, and even when they are turned over, the formats can be laborious to convert. “Sometimes we get physical records. We get thumb drives. We get hard drives,” she told Center Square. “I’ve gotten a CD. I’ve gotten a CD with a staple through the cover of it which broke the CD. We’ve gotten paper,” Pickoff-White continued. “There’s a reporter whose garage is full of boxes.” Posted by: SMOD at May 20, 2026 09:02 AM (RHGPo) Posted by: Ben Had at May 20, 2026 09:02 AM (5P5DO) 292

Posted by: OrangeEnt at May 20, 2026 09:00 AM (1Ff7Z) Waiting for that’s fine, the war can go on for a year so long as the Straits are truly open. Allowing the straits to stay closed through the summer will hammer our economy at a very bad time, and that does not need to happen. Opening them is not militarily difficult - it requires: 1. Eliminating Iran’s remaining fast boats 2. Eliminate remaining missile and drone capacity 3. Use amphibious troops to seize the small islands in the gulf which Iran uses for targeting and as weapons platforms. I suspect #3 is the biggest sticking point. There will be some casualties taken to do that. Posted by: Tom Servo at May 20, 2026 09:12 AM (TH/2I) 329

It really is amazing, isn't it? Almost like a propaganda flex just to demonstrate what they can do. Epstein and Bill Clinton were close friends for years, and he was a frequent island visitor along with a lot of other prominent Lefty VIPs.

The irony of this CO Supreme Court rulig is that the suit claims that CHCO is discriminating against transgender patients, when in fact CHCO would love to re-open their TRUE Center, but are afraid that the HHS declaration from Dec '25 has real teeth and have to decide whether to say what they really feel or throw the gender patients under the bus. The state attorney general hailed the ruling, declaring that these patients can now get the "lifesaving treatments" they need. I think the hospital will try to walk the fine line between complying with the HHS declaration while keeping their TRUE Center limping along hoping that challenges to the HHS rule prevail in court. Cowards.

I’m so tempted to write yes! On it. But I’d probably go to jail for trespassing or some shit. I feel ya. The TDS is as strong as ever with this crowd.

157 I'm not clear why farmland and neighborhoods are being bulldozed for data centers. Why can't they be built on industrial land where infrastructure already exists.
--- 1) consider that every story you are reading about data centers are lies. And who has the most to gain from stopping them. 2) millions and millions of acres of arable land has been permanently lost to housing and cities. Are we proposing to bulldoze those?

That is exactly what I am proposing. There are unused industrial sites in Detroit, Gary, Chicago, St. Louis, Akron, and across the former industrial zones of the country where power and water infrastructure already exist. Much better than bulldozing farmland just so we can have AI slop.

The lot was an unpaved parking lot for tucks and trailers. However, 100 year ago it had a canal and that was filled in with dirt from other worksites.. It all had to be dug up and replaced with "clean" dirt. Tested before and after... This is why no one touches those sites. Posted by: Inogame at May 20, 2026 09:43 AM (53oGX) 417

------- ----------- Is Jew hatred that big of a draw, or did a lot of Dems change registration to make a protest vote? Posted by: Victor Tango Kilo ======== I keep seeing this shit online. It is NOT an exit poll but rather a poll by a firm BigDataPoll for interactive polls. They did a tracking poll for the Kentucky 4 race. About 400 likely voters and by the time you actually get into age cohorts, those samples would be about +-10 or worse. The poll respondents indicated that over eighty percent would vote, the actual turnout was about 33 percent, and so on. This poll was never intended to be broken out into age, etc. and was not in fact random. It texted voters and requested they go to an online website to enter data and you had a some calls made. So the sample was not random. The actual result was beyond the +-4 percent accuracy that BigDataPoll claimed which indicates the poll was essentially junk.

Oh! Good news! Oregon's gas tax/registration fee increase was shot down, under 2/3 reporting but over 4/5 a resounding No. The story is too complicated for me to follow, but getting it passed by the state legislature was the signature achievement of Gov. Tina Kotek (D), and she pulled out every dirty trick in the book to try to keep canvassers from getting it put in front of the voters as a ballot referendum. She is such a sneaky-sneaky, she somehow got away with changing a Nov. referendum against the bill into a May ballot measure for it, but that plainly didn't help.
This means that Kotek is now a big fat loser going into a Nov. rematch against state senator Christine Drazan (R), who won the nomination for Gov. with only a plurality of primary votes (Oregon doesn't do runoffs for party nominees). This does make the governor contest more competitive, but Motor Voter and the Magic Mail-Ins (I saw them open for X at Y in Z) create a nigh-insurmountable Margin Of Fraud.

The tail end of Von Ryan's Express with Sinatra and Trevor Howard is on Movies! You know, I have never seen the film all the way through. I first read and loved the novel when I was in high school -- not assigned reading, I was never so lucky; on my own -- and have reread it a couple of times since, including during the dark days of the Sniffle Scare. I understand the ending of the film is quite a bit different from that of the novel.

If you're getting the full page ad when clicking on "Continue Reading" you can try to reload the page (hit the circular arrow next to the address bar in your browser). That usually gets rid of the ad for me.
You can also right click on "Continue Reading" and hit "Open in New Tab" and that prevents the ad from loading. If you're on a iPad or iPhone long-press the link until a popup opens and then "Open in New Tab". Those might work for people who don't want to open the "Comments" link.

If I remember correctly, he also cut her out of his will as they were in the process of a divorce when he died.
Posted by: Mollly k. at May 20, 2026 05:46 AM (j/yko) From wiki: Ocasek was found dead on September 15, 2019, by his estranged wife, Paulina Porizkova, at his New York City townhouse, which they still shared following their separation in 2017. Porizkova and Ocasek were still in the process of their divorce at the time of his death, but he had disinherited her in a new will, alleging that before his recent surgery she had abandoned him. This required a probate court judge rule on the veracity of the abandonment claims before the remaining estate could be divided. He also disinherited two of his six sons. In 2021, the dispute between Ocasek's estate and Porizkova was settled; Porizkova said she was granted a third of his estate. While Porizkova would not tell Vanity Fair the precise terms of the settlement, she denied reports that Ocasek was "only worth $5 million" at the time of his death.

Back from my walk. Almost got mauled by a vicious dogguh!! I was the only person in this nearby park. I spotted a dog from across this big field and it was running as fast as its chubby body and little legs would take it towards me. It wasn't barking, growling, or any sound at all really. Just had a dumb happy look on its face. I started looking for the owner and saw a beleaguered pixie size asian lady trying to catch up. The dog stopped in front of me and I walked around it. It wouldn't leave me alone until I petted it. Once I did that, it strolled away. I don't know how I'll recover from the trauma.

The only thing that's new is the claim that you can use it if you're not Azure. Which is incorrect. I blame AI.

Youngest pup just came back from there this morning and will be spending a few days with his wife here at our northern Israel home. Holiday tomorrow night. Guests coming up. After barely being up here all winter due to those missiles, the fridge and freezer are now fully stocked. Had a light drizzle today but now the sun is coming out. Cool weather, even colder at night.

Wes Borg Every OS Sucks Posted by: m at May 20, 2026 08:31 AM (6wpGE) Tuesday Overnight Open Thread - May 19, 2026 [Doof]![]() From Pure Nature Oh no - PETA is upset PETA Raises Concerns About Lopez's Preakness Ride; Laurel Stewards Reviewing Footage The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has raised concerns about the winning Preakness ride by Paco Lopez on Napoleon Solo, suggesting that Lopez raised his whip above his helmet on three different occasions before striking his horse, in violation of HISA regulations. HISA announced Monday night that they were investigating the concerns. “The Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA) is aware of the concerns raised regarding Paco Lopez's ride in the referenced race at Laurel Park,” the organization wrote in an email. “In accordance with the standard regulatory process, the Stewards at Laurel will review the race footage and all relevant facts to determine whether any action is warranted under HISA's riding crop rules. We will defer to the Stewards' independent review and adjudication process and will not comment further while that review is ongoing.”Look, I'm not saying I don't care about the horsey. But I am saying PETA is asshoe. ----- Speaking of asshoe - the NAACP tries to stay relevant NAACP calls for boycott of Southern college sports programs over voting rights The NAACP and Congressional Black Caucus are calling on Black athletes and fans to boycott the athletic programs of public universities in states that are taking steps that the nation’s oldest civil rights group says are restricting Black voting rights. Launched on Tuesday, the NAACP’s “Out of Bounds” campaign urges current and prospective Black athletes, their families, alumni and fans to “withhold athletic and financial support” from major public universities in states that “have moved to limit, weaken or erase Black voting representation.” If Black athletes participate in the boycott, it could deplete rosters for powerhouse football and basketball programs across the Southeastern Conference and Atlantic Coast Conference. The NAACP’s campaign calls out Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and South Carolina as states to boycott, arguing that the athletic programs of those states’ major universities are especially reliant on Black athletic talent and should protect Black political interests.Sorry, NAACP - your race card is denied. ----- Spelling matters!

""Judas Priest's 1984 heavy metal track "Jawbreaker" is a double-entendre. On the surface, it portrays a dangerous, explosive monster.

This time, not with arms or violence. We need a real, aggressive political revolution. I will work tirelessly to free America from Israel's control. I will help build a left-wing, populist alternative that is completely free of Israel. If I'm backing someone, including a presidential candidate, that means I think they are actual Americans, and not servants of Israel. Fight them on the left, fight them on the right, fight on the hills and on the beaches. But fight to help free your country. The politicians and the national media are on their side. But I think a united America can defeat the people in power and regain our freedom on our 250th Anniversary.

Posted by: wth at May 19, 2026 10:36 PM (oq9dX) ********************** We had a small aquarium in the boy's bathroom in FL (during the Chimp Era). The fish lived fairly long for fish with flouride. I noticed one day that the youngest had treated them with toothpaste smeared inside the glass. He was fairly normal and a sweet boy, all things considered. He did get wild one weekend after bronchitis and nebulizer treatments that got him hyper. Of course the in-laws were visiting and I had to tell them he was not normally like this (doing laps around the house).The one weekend of insanity he picked when they were on a visit. My nursing co-workers loved when they came because I was a wreak. MIL was always giving me household cleaning tips.We were once doing the dishes and she pulled up the rubber seal and said I needed to use an old toothbrush to scrub that (no idea). AND to get some yarn and wrap around a wire coathanger to get the dust off coils under the fridge. Which meant at one point that visit she was on all fours looking under my fridge.

In hindsight, the deciphered codes, directives sent to army groups and commanders show that as the war “progressed” Uncle Adolph became increasingly dogmatic and micromanaging everything. If the allies would have taken this guy out in say ‘43 or ‘44 then the war would have lasted longer.

(Cont MIL story from above)
I stopped being offended about MIL as the years went on and her neurosis about a spotless house, which I never had. She'd kick all 5 kids out and lock the door to clean and had white carpet when my husband was young. After FIL died (whom I liked and would tell her to shut it) she was visiting in FL. Boys in college or old enough not to do stupid stuff. I was slugging a gin and tonic and watching her swim laps as I cooked and proud of our lovely and clean home. And how I'd managed not to flip her out that visit. She came in and asked if I had any steel wool (no), or Ajax (no), and something else. Nope! Called her son and requested this without asking why. She wanted to clean his grill AND scrub the BOTTOMS of the PVC pool furniture from scrapes of the pool deck. She saw this horror from the pool and looking for anything to clean. I thought this was hilarious but did not laugh in front of her. Have at it! Clean everything! Posted by: ChristyBlinkyTheGreat at May 19, 2026 11:01 PM (WONhk) 181

The OSS contracted a shrink to put together a psychological profile of Herr Schicklegruber, it was actually fairly accurate and predicted he would probably kill hisself.
The whole thing had a lot of moving parts. Allen Dulles was stationed in Bern, and talking with high level party members who knew the war was lost by early ‘44. The “Unconditional Surrender” was a bit controversial at the time, for one thing it makes people fight to the last. Uncle Joe Stalin didn’t want any negotiated surrender with the West, and the Allies were prepared to let him get away with about anything, for cooperation in the Pacific war.

Being a college administrator is a pretty tough gig. The Chancellor and Provost are always breathing down your neck to get things done. Tenured faculty just ignore you. Students (and their parents) are always complaining about something or other. And you never have the resources or support to carry out your mission. The best you can do is coast until retirement.
Posted by: "Perfessor" Squirrel My experience over the years with academic deans and assistant deans, provosts, etc. were not very positive from an administrative standpoint. Too worried about either a) building a resume to bounce somewhere else, b) always worried about raising funds that never somehow trickled down to the academic departments, and c) currying favor with some chosen faculty members. None of them were concerned much at my school with educating students, just in avoiding student complaints and reputation loss on their watch. A true STEM college might be different but ours was a large institution by the time I left. As in tens of thousands of students which in turn created a bureaucratic nightmare. Wasn't that way when I started. Posted by: whig at May 19, 2026 11:15 PM (E4rtv) Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at May 19, 2026 11:15 PM (iERP6) 206

Exit poll showed 18-55 year olds votes heavily for Massie 26-35 was Massive +56, 36-45
Massie +38. But 55+ was very anti-Massie. About +30 for Gallrein overall, with 65-75 at +35. An epic battle of generations. And older people vote at higher rates. So even though younger voters skewed much more heavily Massie there weren’t as many of them as older voters.

If I have a big dinner party I will clear the table, throw stuff in the dishwasher and soak pans, etc. Wash china/crystal the next day. Granted, she put china and crystal in the dishwasher, which is a sin in the South. So maybe I'm the screwed up one. After a surgery I took care of her for one hell week. She'd fret from bed.

Like Liz Cheney, Massie's campaign made a major effort to get DEMs to crossover & vote for Massie in the GOP primary. That MIGHT'VE skewed the youth vote toward Massie to some extent. It didn't seem to me that there were any hot DEM primaries in KY, but I didn't study up on it. Could be wrong.

233 >>>But 55+ was very anti-Massie. About +30 for Gallrein overall, with 65-75 at +35.
An epic battle of generations. And older people vote at higher rates. So even though younger voters skewed much more heavily Massie there weren’t as many of them as older voters. But 10 years from now, this same race is won by Massie easily as the biggest group of support for Massie will be much smaller The GOP will be a much different party in the not too distant future if these trends continue. Posted by: Heroq ======= That was a partially online 'interactive' poll. Thus crap. I think I'll wait for a poll with better methodology as internet based 'invite' polling and open polling produces stupidly bad results. The problem with polling is Random Digit Dialing is dead because a lot of people no longer pick up the phone for anonymous calls, going door to door is too expensive for media polls, and using the internet to email invites and using texts produces really bad samples of convenience, not random at all.

Right now, I see a divergence in yutes--those that are college track are probably distinct from those working or seeking jobs that do not require a college degree. I think due to the disappearance of illegals in a lot of places, jobs are opening up in construction, restaurants, etc., probably now truck driving, and so on.
Those college bound or in college are scared to death of outsourcing and H1Bs as well as AI taking or preventing them from getting good jobs in the future. And if they are male, they have been shit on in their education throughout the years. I don't think they see Trump as helping them much as it is taking time to kill DEI, decrease H1Bs, spin up new industries, and the question whether AI is going to kill the white collar middle class jobs is up for grabs.

My honest estimation is that not using A-bombs on Japan would have lead to the total destruction of Japan. If we would have stayed our hand and proceeded with Operation Olympic and Operation Coronet, we would have incurred a million casualties, but at the cost of the lives of twenty million Japanese men, women, and children. Remember, the Japanese brass wanted to give children sharpened bamboo poles to hold off invading forces. Japan as a nation would not have recovered from a loss of that magnitude. It would have become something else, something no longer Japanese. Just my opinion.

What was kind of interesting to me was learning that even before the first bomb had been tested, war planners and administration officials believed that this new potential in warfare - bombs that could destroy entire cities was a game changer, and the USA wouldn’t have a monopoly on it forever. Less than 4 years it turned out.
The Air Force brass, some of the commanders sort of thought it was just another bomb, a new weapon that would be placed in the inventory and they could drop them on Japan as they saw fit, like anything else.

317 In an alternate universe, the atomic bombs turned out to be very expensive fizzles, as nuclear fission didn't work the way all the egghead scientists thought it would. As a result, Japan was placed under an extreme blockade, which continues to this day. Once a year, the USA, the USSR, and the victorious Chinese Nationalist governments put aside their petty differences and conduct a joint air strike on the lifeless rocks that used to be Japan. Posted by: Idaho Spudboy at May 20, 2026 12:16 AM -------- It's kind of amazing to me that the devices worked exactly as predicted.

“Very expensive fizzles”
They built an enormous cast steel container for just this reason, expensive as hell, and shipped it all the way to the Trinity site. The idea was if the bomb test failed, then it would hopefully contain the plutonium that had been laboriously accumulated at Hanford. There were a few well meaning sorts who were not in favor of nuking Japan, that a “demonstration” test should be done instead, and this would persuade Japan to surrender. But among many logical arguments against this, what if you setup this big demonstration test, and it doesn’t go off? Now what? Posted by: Common Tater at May 20, 2026 12:22 AM (EACZC) 327

All of us in Texas are both laughing and rolling our eyes at the woefully ignorant comments by Christie, High Hewitt, and other uniparty out of state hacks.
First: Trump’s endorsement is nice, but that’s just him jumping on a bandwagon. Everyone paying close to attention knows that Paxton has been way ahead of Cornyn for weeks. Texas Republican voters are sick to death of Cornyn, and are eager to give him the boot. I expect the margin in the race to be similar to the Gallrein/Massie results, maybe even better. Second: the idea that Talerico is going to be some big vote getter is part of Democrat talking points that the Uniparty/nevertrumpers have lapped up. The whole case comes down to this - Talerico pretends to be a preacher and says Jesus a lot, and Texas voters are all ignorant hillbillies who will vote for someone says Jesus, even if he says that it would have been ok if Mary aborted Jesus, because his god loves abortion. (Yes, Talerico really said that). And when you think it can’t get any worse, he even said he hates barbecue and won’t touch it because it’s not vegetarian That pathetic false preacher is going to be one of the biggest flameouts this fall.

FWIW, I dug into that poll regarding Kentucky 4th and with crosstabs on age. It was not an exit poll but something done by BigDataPoll polling outfit. They tracked that race several times with a poll of about 400 Likely Voters using text invites an online website or replying to the text to a selection of Kentucky 4th voters.
Puts their results at about 95 percent confidence interval as stated with sample size which makes diving them up into age cohorts practically useless error wise. I also caught that they had something like 81 percent of their sample claiming they were sure to vote. Turnout shows that sample was not representative. KY 4th has about 310k total GOP registered voters, about 100 k turned out. So turnout was about 33-34 percent of all registered GOP voters in that district. So, their likely voter screening was crap. I would be leery of relying on this poll for any real results given these problems. If you notice, the margin that Gallrein won was beyond the confidence interval of +-4 percent. There is always a bit of interesting data to be gathered from any sample and it was mainly about campaigning. Gallrein did not use door knockers but Massie did Posted by: whig at May 20, 2026 12:59 AM (E4rtv) 347

The gun type would theoretically work with nearly pure Pu-239. The problem was trace amounts of Pu-240, which has a high spontaneous fission rate, which causes pre-detonation with the gun type. It's nearly impossible to to separate them enough to get the near 100% purity needed. Also, even if you could purify it, they were going to need a pretty long barrel, requiring a very long bomb, that was very unstable aerodynamically (tended to go into a spin), even if you had a long enough bomber to drop it.

Yeah. With the implosion type, over that 6% or 7% limit will start causing timing problems making a fizzle more likely. Also the heat gets to be a problem for the device sitting there. Now, reading, apparently in the Fat Man days, they could tolerate only about 1% in the earlier implosion designs. As that tech gets better, they can handle more Pu-240. The key is how fast you can implode it. The slower, the less 240 you can tolerate. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at May 20, 2026 01:44 AM (w6EFb) 378

I drove down a short stretch of Route 66 over the weekend (aka Central Ave. through Albuquerque). I normally avoid that part of town simply because it's gotten horribly dingy and junky. Albuquerque was never Nordic-levels of tidy by any means, but it's starting to border on blue metropolis levels of foul. Pathetic, and entirely voluntary.

latest DC backchannels can confirm by sources familiar with the campaign, Massie's original campaign slogan was slated to be 'vote for Lew (jr) , not the J...s' but the ADL and APIAC served them with a cease-and-desist. The massie campaign made the politically-astute decision to abide by the order, as to avoid any potential bad press.

Incidentally, I'm a bit disappointed in the Oregon primary results. We only have runoffs for non-partisan positions, like circuit court judge or county commissioner; otherwise, the Republican with the most votes is the party nominee. And for governor, I thought that either the 2nd or 3rd-place finisher would have a better chance against incumbent Tina Kotek (D).
My vote was for State Rep. Ed Diehl, who came in 2nd, as the best overall package; and I read somewhere that 3rd-place ex-Trailblazer Chris Dudley polled favorably against Kotek. (It's actually a purple state, maybe even leaning red, if not for Motor Voter and the Magic Mail-Ins.) But State Sen. Christine Drazan is higher up in the party machine, and easily cleared the bar, so... time to pray.

Massie, a refresher.
"It’s hard to overstate how big of a thorn in Trump’s side Massie has been – and how great of a victory Gallrein’s win is for the president. Massie has opposed Trump on every significant initiative he has proposed. He voted against bills to keep Trump’s government funded and opened. He voted against the Big, Beautiful Bill, the historic package containing the bulk of Trump’s campaign platform. He partnered with radical Democrat Ro Khanna from California to force through a bill ostensibly to release what is known as the Epstein files, but which instead caused trouble for Trump – who is not credibly accused of any wrongdoing and has been revealed to have been one of the first prominent celebrities to sound the alarm on Epstein, even banning him from Mar-A-Lago – and halted his agenda, while resulting in no additional perpetrators being brought to justice. Put simply, no Democrat has been as effective as stopping Trump’s agenda as Thomas Massie has been. And now, after Trump went all-in to take him out, his political career is over." Hope Massie's dick falls off for all his troubles. Posted by: runner at May 19, 2026 08:23 PM (GD0B3) 70

Gizmo wasn't my dog, he was hers.
He was a malshipoo, a Maltese, Shih Tzu and Miniature or Toy Poodle. Like to warble for attention, like the movie namesake; that's how he got the name. He was a tall, fuzzy brown and white goof sometimes with attitude. But he always listened, loved to just be near. He really liked stretching those long legs and running away from all the other dogs. Nothing made him happier than the time he found the mud puddle in the back yard. Running around in big loops as fast as he could to circle back to slide and splash through the mud. Completely exhausted, completely covered in mud and completely happy. What a sight. Goodbye little buddy: Hope you're running, splashing and playing in heaven.

Well, I filled out my Oregon mail-in ballot and put it in the nearby official drop-box (in the library parking lot, next to the drive-thru book return). Had to be there by 8 p.m. and it's not yet 5:30.
Also signed up online to receive text message updates on its progress, where the online dashboard helpfully tells me that it's 1/3 Outbound, where the next steps are 2/3 Received and 3/3 Accepted. That's actually pretty slick. The brief sign-up form let you limit the times they would send a message, and I accepted the default of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., which means I won't get any updates until tomorrow (since they won't even collect it from the drop box until the quiet time). Received the welcoming text message and replied Yes to confirm. With the Silicon Forest and everything, Oregon prides itself on being fairly hip to the tech, and this does seem to be well-done.

"Iron Maiden's gonna get you, no matter how far"
I always sang it "Iron Maiden's gonna get you, how near or how far." Still do even though I know it's wrong. One of the funniest misheard lyrics I've heard: Back in the 90s I was in a band and we wanted to cover a song by Guided by Voices lead singer Robert Pollard called 'Subspace Biographies." *Great* song btw. First run-through in rehearsal, our lead singer sang "There is nothing worse than an ugly German person" and we all stopped playing and lost it cracking up! The line is: "There is nothing worse than an undetermined person." Lead singer was embarassed but managed to say in his defense "well, my version IS true!"

Need to get my balcony garden ready. I'm leaving town for a couple of weeks after Memorial Day. I've used water spikes in the past and they work well. I don't have as many plants as I normally do. I may add more to the balcony when I get back. Nothing fancy. I don't get enough sun. Spider plants, coleus, and whatever weeds blow in do well. I've had some mystery weeds in the past that look nice so I left them alone. Probably aliens.

And, after a couple of delays, looks like Elon and SpaceX are shooting for Thursday, the 21st, for the Starship v3 test launch. You can check out SpaceX X for some pics of the rollout of the massive thing. Unlike NASA, SpaceX doesn't do vertical stacking, but they stack the Ship and the big booster at the pad using the massive tower arms. They do a lot of stacking and unstacking in the testing and checkout before a launch. They are constructing a big "Gigabay" facility down at Starbase which will apparently be able to do vertical assembly at some point.

That is what happens when a person's ego and bile against Jews and Israel ends up corroding one's soul. I think his and his supporters political attacks on Israel and his harping on Epstein when it was shown nothing was there doomed him. And most of the district wanted no part of that nasty flirting with real life Not Sees and Muzzies pushing Massie for their own evil reasons. Killed whatever libertarian message, if any, that Massie was actually pushing. If he had stopped at simply criticizing government spending and debt or even criticizing the war against Iran, he would have stayed in office most likely. He had to go into the gutter.

Wait, so there is an album cover with Stevie Nicks, and she's holding a bird. The bird is white. It may be a parrot. OK, but white bird makes you think of a dove right? And why would she be holding the bird?
Because it can't fly, because it only has one wing. Or I guess it could theoretically kind of spiral down, but is that flight? No it is not. I bet the whole idea was to have a song about a one winged dove and at the last minute they rewrote it due to CORPORATE PRESSURE! So in a way, I'm right and the world is wrong.

There is political power, and there is personal power. Trump has lots of both.
Imagine a Trump out of office, a guy who can just camp out in your state or district. No official duties, no summits, just all the time in the world to ruin your life. It would be a shame if that happened to you. All you have to do is vote for these things, maybe fire the bitch parliamentarian. Recess the Senate. Or, you know, enjoy your last term. You still haven't addressed HOW. Yes, he will be a popular ex-President, but that isn't the same thing as having actual power. You said it yourself: Donors do not pay for people who can do nothing for them. Lose your power, lose the money...Do you think the donors are taking care of him?

HARRISON COUNTY, Ind. — An Indiana man is behind bars after police say he was found dancing in the roadway while holding a rare box turtle and carrying methamphetamine. Indiana DNR officials announced Tuesday that a man had been arrested in Harrison County after conservation officers found him “dancing” along a local street. The man was reportedly holding an Eastern Box Turtle, which DNR said is illegal.

And it ended the career of Chris Carr, cowardly AG who saw no evil and heard no evil. Jackson, the late parachuted in billionaire candidate by courtesy of Kemp's state contracts, dropped a cool $100 million of his own money on the governor's race. I think he was put into the race because Carr and Ratshitburger had no chance at winning clearly by the time Jackson entered. Jackson is currently running second to Trump endorsed Burt Jones bu the race will go to a runoff. Democrat candidate for governor is Keisha Lance Bottoms who quit her job as Atlanta mayor because she was so bad at ait. Did not run in 2022 for reelection.

FWIW, in Georgia, Fulton County will not report any results until their last polling place closes at 11 PM.
Total bullshit as the Dems are trying to capture two Georgia Supreme Court seats and one Court of Appeals seat. It is causing other counties to hold reporting all their results as well. Posted by: whig at May 19, 2026 09:55 PM (E4rtv) 367

We go out to eat about four times a year. Tonight was one and holy shit how the fuck do you mess up a truffle fries appetizer. These were fucked in every way. No flavor, cold, shitty, didn't even taste like anything but oil, and not even decent oil. I've never had a bad truffle fry before tonight. Not one. Didn't know it was a thing. I mean I know you can mess up any food, I just feel you have to be trying to fuck that up.

Trump is "Different" and the biggest force for modern conservatism we have seen in 40 years and maybe much more. He understands how to explain things like people are five.
First to the former and absolutely not to the latter. I don't think The Donald could explain basic math. He's just too scatter-brained. He is not a great communicator. He's shitty at it. But he's blunt - in a completely awful way. His greatest advantage is he's operating in a relative vacuum. Because no other President or President Hopeful in my lifetime had the balls ... or insanity ... to just say it like it is. Not Reagan - don't throw out his name either. Obama was blunt. For Communism. Hence his popularity with certain folks. Posted by: Howdy at May 19, 2026 09:57 PM (Tu33N) 373

Extraordinary action has been taken today to deny access to independent observers, including members of the State Election Board, to the Election Night Reporting Room.

That’s it. Posted by: nurse ratched at May 19, 2026 10:01 PM (A5RD0) I like this. But I have to admit I wasn’t a fan of TX early voting. Now I think it works. Helpful, because if you are out of town on Election Day you have still cast your vote. The period should be shorter though. Like this week. Election Day is May 26, and early voting is this week, M-F, ONLY. Posted by: Cow Demon at May 19, 2026 10:06 PM (T6aVk) 393
