Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Tuesday Overnight Open Thread - February 17, 2026 [Doof]![]() Photo credit - Shannon Hill on X 5 years ago today, we lost a one-of-a kind legend. ![]() Rush explains the Trump phenomenon (Oct 2018 ) Take in the first 20 seconds of this video especially. Two legends of conservativism - both sorely missed.
Let's also revisit this spectacularly titled opinion article from Erick Erickson which was published the day after Rush passed away. Talent Returned To God My mother insisted that my dad and I take a college road trip together when I was in 11th grade. I got to drive. My dad got to control the radio. We opted for backroads and scenery instead of speed and the interstate. Driving through rural Alabama on the way to my eventual alma mater, Mercer University, in Macon, Georgia, my dad went in search of radio legend Paul Harvey. Instead, he stumbled upon a voice claiming to have talent on loan from God. My dad and I may not have had a super close relationship at the time, but together we found Rush Limbaugh and could connect with each other through listening to Rush. Years later, I helped start the website RedState and randomly sent a note through the comment line at Rush's website. I not only got back a reply, but it was from Rush himself. I could not believe he knew who I was. Thus began a correspondence, which led to a friendship, which led to a mentorship. The first time I ever remember my dad telling me he was proud of me was the day Rush Limbaugh referred to me on air as his friend. My dad nearly ran off the road and immediately called me with fatherly pride. After years of running RedState and being on television, my parents finally decided I would be okay in my career choices after Rush designated me one of his guest hosts.Definitely check out the whole thing. ![]() ![]() At just 40 feet tall, the Newby-McMahon Building in Wichita Falls isn’t very impressive, even when compared to regular-sized buildings, let alone skyscrapers. And yet it was supposed to be one of the most imposing skyscrapers of its time when it was designed in the early 1900s. The nickname ‘World’s Littlest Skyscraper’ is a dubious title to have, but the Newby-McMahon Building is indeed dwarfed by every skyscraper in the world. It isn’t remotely worthy of being called a skyscraper, as it’s dwarfed by several normal buildings in Wichita Falls, but the story of how it came to be is truly fascinating. The origins of the Newby-McMahon Building can be traced back to the early 1900s, when the North Texas city of Wichita Falls became the center of a regional oil boom. The discovery of black gold in nearby Burkburnett turned hundreds of locals into millionaires, as mineral rights were negotiated virtually everywhere, from street corners to temporary tents. Philadelphia oil man J.D.D. McMahon was the first to notice the city’s dire need for office space and quickly proposed a solution – building an imposing skyscraper right next to the original Newby Building, built by Augustus Newby in 1906. His blueprints caught the eye of several investors, and he was able to raise about $200,000 (about $6.8 million in today’s money). McMahon promised a multistory office building that would be built just across the street from the St. James Hotel, but what he failed to mention was that it wouldn’t go up very much. Exctatic investors didn’t notice that the building’s scale was measured in inches rather than feet, and, by the time they realized they had been scammed, it was too late.Check out the whole thing. Video segment at the link. Not related, yet somehow related RIP to my favorite Presidents Day fun fact. John Tyler, our 10th president, had a grandson alive until last May. John had a son while in his 60s.That's a pretty random but interesting tidbit! But wait - there's more! Check out this very Horde-worthy comment to the post Correction: Steven Tyler was John Tyler's father. 'Dream On' was almost our national anthem. And 'Love in an Elevator' was written by Otis Redding, two years after he founded the Otis Elevator Company. Look it up. ![]() Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

I remember well the day Rush went national August 1, 1988. I had been listening to Bob Grant in NY for years. I was still living and working in NYC then. Bob Grant seemed very jealous this young upstart was going national, as I'm sure Grant always wanted to. Grant was on 3-6 PM and I listened to him on a Walkman while commuting home. I started carrying a little radio to hear Rush at work when possible. I was in the Carpenters Union then. Grant, Like Rush, started out in California in the mid 60s. He moved to NYC and had a legendary feud with Alex Bennett, a cool hippie who had a radio show in NY then. Bennett later moved to SF.

My favorite Rush Limbaugh "lesson" was when he went off on "special" tax proposals. The one he commented on was a proposal by some entity for a sales tax for an additional penny for the police and fire departments.
HE WENT OFF ON IT. He (correctly) pointed out the FIRST duty of government was public safety. Therefore funding for police and fire departments should be solved FIRST, and then everything else figured out afterwards. The younger me (this was during the middle '90s) really appreciated this ranking of government priorities. Even conservatives need to be reminded that these kind of proposals are gimmicks--other leftist bullshit has already been approved and yet we're asking taxpayers the equivalent of "Would you all pay more sales tax if we kept you...safe?".

The thing about Rush for us was, we don't listen to the radio except when we're in the car. And whenever I'd tune in Limbaugh, he was either going into a commercial break, touting something, or otherwise filling time without his actual commentary. We'd pull into our driveway just as he'd come back from commercials.

Doof, Good "Call" on the hidden video. I bought "Into the Woods" on vinyl when it was released (not because vinyl captures the nuances in the music we have lost in the digital age, but because I'm old). There are no stinkers on that album either, which is good, since it is a pain in the ass to get out of your chair, and skip to the next track with vinyl. Yup, you couldn't just press a button on some fancy remote. No sir. You had to lift the needle, and try to delicately drop it on the next track, or you would irreparably damage both the needle and the album. Every time you played it in the future, you would be reminded that you gashed the damn thing by the skip or a pop. Anyway, good song Doof.

78 Damn you Jeffrey Epstein!
Why? at long last we get to see how far politico's will go to protect one of their own. Why haven't all the doc's been released? if they were, consider well both Clinton's would know precisely what not to recall -- which is precisely why both want it televised, which makes it that much more difficult to parallel construct a conviction of implications and perjury upon them... They're cooked, and so is Brennan and his dancing undead. All things open to question are precisely why Epstein chose to prominently display a life sized portrait of Bill Clinton in a blue dress pointing an accusing finger at the viewer. "I am not a great man, I am a failure – and you have made me one." -- Clinton'01 If a President of the United States ever lied to the American people, he should resign. -- Clinton'98 It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. Clinton'98 “the people in charge are lying to the public and telling them not to believe what we’ve seen with our own eyes.” Clinton 01/26/26 "We'll actually have to work very hard to kill as many people in the 21st century.

Much as I truly enjoyed and learned from Rush, there were moments when I had to turn him off.
1. shilling for Apple. 2. doing the ads. I know he was contracted to do so, but it was always after a huge block of ads anyway. 3. Talking about sports. 4. having a kid caller. It was always about his books and how great they are. Which they might have been, I don't know. That said, when he passed, I turned off the radio and seldom have had it on since.

MisHum can have the frozen tundra all to himself for a while. Ice fishing! Sturgeon spearing! Snow shoveling and scraping ice off the windshield! We're out here for the first time in a few years, and intend to relax and unwind. It's been kind of a hard winter. I like the Southwest.

Stevie Nick's voice? ...Is that how she always sounds???
Posted by: Berserker-Dragonheads Division ---- Ok, I won't wade into the "is that how she always sounds?" discussion because I LOVE everything that Fleetwood Mac did when Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie joined the band. That was amazing material, and they earned eternal respect for that. What I WILL provide is this update on Stevie's live solo shows. If your girlfriend or wife wants to go, take her. But just know going in that her range has deteriorated, and her back-up singers now hit the high notes for her. And her band is "professionally generic". What I mean by that is that they play all of the right notes, but their "tone" is off...often. They "overdrive" sections of songs that should sound acoustic...a lot. Lindsey Buckingham didn't do that. Because he is an amazing guitarist that knows how to do stuff that sounds over-driven and he also knows how to play clean. But Stevie apparently *hates* Lindsey, because of all of the 100 or more (not kidding here) visuals that show up behind her in her concert, there were a dozen of Tom Petty, a half dozen of Christine McVie, a half dozen of Joe Walsh...and ONE of Lindsey.

The fact is, Les Aspen went out of his way to deny the armored support that the crew requested, refused to acknowledge that the expected warlords were speaking arabic rather than Somali -- because it was OBL's organization and trial ballon.

IF one wanted to raise money for a good cause, one could buy the rights to piss on Hillary's grave. There would be a long line of people who would pay to buy tickets to do that. In my adult lifetime I've never encountered an "American" that I'm more convinced is evil incarnate.

I miss Rush
Used to throw my oldest in his car seat in the front seat of my 1984 Bl*zer (the back seat was too far away) and we’d listen to Rush and drive out to the coast and play in the ocean. He loved the opening music and danced in his seat and we enjoyed the drive and listened and rocked out. Both my boys are rock hard conservatives. So blessed. I miss Rush.

I had a Rush Is Right coffee mug back in 1998. Brought it out to California, and it was my office coffee mug. Back then, workplaces had actual coffee stations with full pots of java just there for the taking. America was a proper country then. At some point, the coffee mug went missing. I'd like to think it was another fan that couldn't help himself, but, California, so...

Fun trivia about Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty: “Don’t come around here no more” was written for Stevie Nicks by Tom Petty and Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics, after Stevie’s break up with Joe Walsh. Stevie was supposed to perform it, but Petty said he had some ideas on how to do it and asked to cut a demo tape for her before she did it.
She listened to his demo tape and instantly realized she could never do it as well as he just did, so she said take it, it’s yours now. Posted by: Tom Servo at February 17, 2026 11:17 PM (otNgF) 184

Personally, I hate American Graffiti with the heat of a thousand suns. It's George Lucas' big "fuck you" to Modesto, where he grew up. The epilogue has everyone either dying horribly, going to Canada (almost certainly to avoid the draft), and Opie gets his dreams of leaving Modesto dashed when Shirley latches onto him like a blood-sucking tropical leech and begs him to stay.

1.) I was a legit "Rush baby," given that I listened to his show from the age of six until he died. I would ride bikes around town with my dad, and my job was to carry the ghetto blaster in my bike basket playing the show.
2.) Erickson is a detestable, treacherous cuck who wasn't fit to shine Limbaugh's shoes, without regard to some guest-host appearances over the years.

245 Palin is the reason I voted. And damn if she didn't get her life obliterated. I guess she's either radioactive or just wants her privacy. She's fallen off the planet at this point.
Posted by: nckate at February 17, 2026 11:51 PM (uQzkA) It's amazing how strongly people feel about her even today- especially the ones who hate her. I mentioned a year or two ago saying her delivery of that speech at the convention was absolutely perfect. I have rarely, if ever seen one done as well. All of a sudden guys here came out of the woodwork, foaming at the mouth saying she was stupid and knew nothing and was completely unprepared and was the reason Obama won (literally, it was fucking crazy.) I had seen women respond that strongly but this was the first time I had seen dudes react that way. I am wondering if gay. Posted by: Aetius451AD at February 17, 2026 11:55 PM (bss/y) 256

Am I mistaken, or did I read that Nevada and Maine are the only states that contain some form of legalized prostitution?
Posted by: Crusader ----- Maine? Don't think so. Nevada has legalized prostitution by county option. Heavily regulated, only in licensed locations, girls licenced, medical checkups once a month, etc. Fun fact: Prostitution is outlawed in Clark County (Las Vegas). That's the town with probably the highest ratio of hookers per square mile of anywhere in the US.

AI Overview
As of late 2023, Maine does not fully legalize or regulate prostitution, but it has partially decriminalized it. Specifically, Maine law now prohibits the purchase of sexual services, but it does not criminalize those who sell or engage in sex work, making it the first state to adopt this approach.

However, on a handful of subjects, man, it feels like it is less a discussion with you and more an exercise in denial and contradiction.

Your opinion has been fucking logged. This gets tedious. It kind of annoys people. Yes, we Catholics (of which I am a very bad example) are about to embark on one of our biggest rituals of self denial and trying to become closer to God.

I'm unfortunately in Denver for some work stuff, but it's supposed to warm up tomorrow. It's not bad tonight, for that matter. But high winds around Denver had us waiting on the tarmac in Dallas for two hours while it blew itself out.
Fortunately, they filled 'er all the way up as a hedge against the possibility of needing to divert, so we had enough fuel on board to haul some ass and make some time once we got airborne. Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at February 18, 2026 12:24 AM (OX5EB) 338

I've never been so shocked in all my life that Romney lost. Rush thought Romney was going to win. The country saw what Obama was the first term, how disruptive he was, how he was a liar.
He didn't win. He stole it. Posted by: Braenyard +++ Romney was weak. BUT Obama was far worse than Carter in every way. Not really surprising that he won the first go around as he was objectively popular, three tours of (R) tires the LIV, but, his first tour was a total shit show. Not average. Not meh. Total shit show. And his reelection had verifiable massive vote/election fraud going on. Philly alone had multiple precincts with over 100% registered voter turnout, 100% Obama, and/or 0% Romney (with stray third party votes). From a quality assurance perspective this is just that guy writing down whatever vote totals for the precinct with whatever the hell they feel like.

There's a great scene (an almost insignificant one, plotwise) in The Wire, where Marlo Stanfield steals a lollipop from the bodega, and the security guard confronts him outside about his gang activity, and how he sees through him, and just wants him to at least quit being so brazen about it. Just an honest man telling a crook to quit rubbing it in everyone's faces.
Marlo replies "You want it to be one way." SG: "What?" Marlo: "You want it to be one way." SG: "What's that supposed to mean?" Marlo: "You want it to be one way." SG: "Stop saying that!" Marlo: "But it's the other way." Marlo then jumps in his Escalade and speeds off, and in a later episode, has the security guard murdered for daring to mouth off to him that day. This is how the American political system works and the Republican Marlos are no different than the Democrat ones. Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at February 18, 2026 12:43 AM (OX5EB) 365

Back in the days when I thought I was smarter than I actually was, I held the RC church in contempt. Then my sainted mother, a very strong Christian, became a member of a Catholic church. I couldn't believe it. I sat down with her and dished out a good rant. She listened, like she always did and then asked me a couple questions. Are there Bibles in Catholic churches? Yes mom. So the Word of God is present. Yes mom. If the Word of God is present, is the Holy Spirit present? Yes mom. So do you think God has a handle on things? Yes mom. She joined that church because she love the liturgy, the beauty, the Priest was an amazing teacher and that church had the only draf service in Spokane. My younger brother is deaf. I still have issues with the RC church. They aren't the only one though. The morons here who identify as Catholics come across no differently than myself. They love our Lord Jesus and they struggle daily to live up to His unconditional love. Disagreement is fine, but leave it at that. This isn't the forum for anything beyond that.

Met a neighbor today. He lives about 3 miles down the road. I had headed across the road for a couple hundred rounds of stress relief. He pulled in right behind me. Said he was looking for a good place to shoot. I told him I had a range up the hill and he could join me. He hadn't brought any gear except his pistol but I told him I had spare protective gear. I put up 2 homemade silhouette targets. The first one was named Sid, the other Roberta. They both had the Antifa logo as the center mass target. He was laughing his rear end off. He said this was new favorite place to shoot. We had a blast.

I will say one thing about a patriotic talking horse introducing history to elementary school children. At least it is a small candle in the dark to counteract the overwhelming abundance of anti-USA, anti-parent, anti-God and pro-sexual perversion books which fill elementary school libraries now.
Rush really twisted some panties with his coinage of the femi-Nazi. That touched a nerve with large swaths of America, so many people knew such a person. The precursor to Pink pussy hats, Karen's and now AWFLS. I loved the movie American Graffiti too, and obviously I am not a mechanic, I just enjoyed that little slice of Americana.

As usual, the cafe is Haram.
One thing hit me, after one of today's threads got nooded. It was about the spelling "koran" instead of "quran". The name of the prophet has gone through many changes. When I was young, he was "Mohammed". Now, it's usually "Muhammed." Of course, they do this only to be pests. Well, back in the day, they did the same changing the then-standard "Mahomet" to "Mohammed". Chesterton would have none of it, and fought his editors. He ended it by writing them "If you insist on 'Mohammed' I am perfectly capable of insisting on 'Mahound'". GKC won. Ever since reading that, I've tried to use older spellings. (And I won't call the gulf state "Gutter". NFW.) Posted by: Eeyore at February 17, 2026 07:46 PM (AlhUl) 33

Over the last year or so, I have noticed thst cashiers at truck stops have changed their traditional send off at the end of a transaction. Now, instead of the tradional "Thank you, have a nice day," or, "Thanks, please come again," they are telling us, "Safe travels."
I, for one, find this to be an improvement. "Safe travels" is now my second favorite valediction, right after, "Have a blessed day," because any phrase that invokes the almighty to look after you has to be the favorite, but a personal concern for a truckers welfare on the road is rather nice.

I grew up in a subdivision in Phoenix that had been built in old citrus groves - we all had 3 or 4 grapefruit trees in our yards, some had 5 or 6. They were very productive, and often they would just fall on the ground and rot (these were the great big bright yellow variety). I mean we all ate them for breakfast most every day when they ripe, but 4 or 5 trees will produce a couple of hundred grapefruit, and you just can’t eat that many. So me and my friends would have wars with them.
When you were choosing your weapon, you didn’t want a fresh one - no you wanted the ones that had been on the ground for about a week. The supreme triumph was to hide around the corner til one of your buddies stepped out, and then hit him with a great big one on the side of the head and cover him with rotten sticky grapefruit juice when it exploded. Man those were some good times!

I've been hit with a lot of plant based projectiles now that I think about it. That came from a black walnut tree, got hit with a lot of those. Also crab apples, little golf ball sized plinkers. And hedge apple wars of course. A few pine cones.
I guess living in Kansas, which has approximately a dozen trees total throughout the entire state, we just just kind of all share those same 12 trees, I was lucky because I still got hit a lot.

She’s a lesbian head case, claiming that the alphabet people have it so rough in the USA and she was going to use her Olympic platform to bring attention to it.

Posted by: Jen the original at February 17, 2026 10:07 PM (htw0c) Antifa-Affiliated Group Stomps a Normal Peaceful Student to Death in Lyon, FranceThe BBC attempts to gently bury the story under the vague and anodyne headline, "Student death puts French far-left under pressure," as if he died after drinking too much at an antifa party. The reality? He was a normie who showed up to protect female protesters who call attention to Muslim rape culture. They were protesting a radical Muslim speaker. This group is called "Collective Nemesis." An antifa-affiliated group, Jeune Garde (Young Guard, I think), just beat him to the ground and then delivered full-extension kick to his head after full-extension kick to his head. He died within days of severe brain trauma. "Student death puts French far-left under pressure" That's a take.Student death puts French far-left under pressure France's radical left is under pressure after the killing of a student in Lyon was blamed on "anti-fascist" militants."Blamed"? It's on video. Quentin Deranque, a 23-year-old maths student and nationalist activist, died on Saturday, two days after being beaten up on the street by a group of young men. State prosecutor Thierry Dran told a news conference on Monday afternoon in Lyon that a murder investigation has been opened into the death. He said that Deranque was kicked and punched by "at least six" individuals, and that the autopsy showed fatal damage to his skull and brain. On Thursday afternoon Deranque had given support to a hard-right feminist collective Némésis, which staged a small protest against a left-wing politician's visit to Lyon's Institute of Political Studies (IEP), commonly known as Sciences-Po.You mean a radical Muslim's visit. Mobile phone video footage taken a few streets away from the protest's location showed three young men being kicked and punched by a larger group. One person - believed to be Quentin - remained lying on the ground. According to Dran, there was an initial confrontation between two groups. A short time later Deranque was one of three nationalist activists who, having failed to get away, were cornered by the opposing group.One group was just some girls who were there to protest the many rapes perpetrated by Muslims. This kid Quentin was there to protect them. I guess he succeeded -- by giving his own life to protect them from antifa. Ministers from President Macron's centre-right government blamed "far-left" militants for the killing. Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez said: "Manifestly it was the far-left that was at work ... This was a mob-killing, with blows that the perpetrators probably did not intend to be fatal." According to Justice Minister Gérald Darmanin, "it is the far-left that killed him. Of that there is no question."The French government actually called it a lynching -- un lynchage is their word for it. But the BBC won't say that. "Student death." At every point, the BBC minimizes the murder by their antifa allies and deceives the reader into thinking the facts are in doubt and that maybe antifa is just getting a bad rap. And the BBC does not report that after the murder, left-wing French politicians praised the work and the importance of left-wing "protest" groups.

I live in France: The man who killed him was previoulsy sentenced for another case of violences, guns were found in his house. That reminds me: my antifa membership card expired. I gotta go to the regional antifa office to renew it. Good thing the fees are tax-deductible. 🙄 >lynchage I don't think we can call it a lynching when you're part of a group that physically attacks another group, and you lose the fight you started. Nothing justifies Quentin's death, but I don't think the word is appropriate. Have you read the various articles? Q guy wasn't there to be peaceful. His group ran when they squared up and he lost.

How exactly was this guy going to protect these women? Posted by: davidt at February 17, 2026 06:56 PM (Q+gd/) In a country without the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, the options are limited. In fact, he succeeded, though at a terrible personal cost. The thugs were so busy murdering him that the women he was protecting were able to escape.

In 2024, NYC property tax receipts hit a record high of $37 billion.
Assuming it's universal and there are no exemptions and no difference in assessments and so every property owner pays 9.5% more than last year without exception, this will raise an additional $3.515 billion, all other things being equal. That's a lot of money. This year's budget is proposed to be $122.7 billion. The deficit will be around $2 billion per the Comptroller, with next year projected at $10 billion (nobody knows how much Mamdani is going to spend). So this tax hike will cover this year's new deficit. Maybe. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at February 17, 2026 07:30 PM (0PRUW) 129

The landlords are free to dispose of their land, free to buy land and to sell it. That is why it is possible to judge their strength very accurately by the amount of land they own. The land can never pass to labour, that is, to the poor working man, because land has to be paid for with money. But the poor never have any money to spare. The land can go only to the rich, moneyed peasants, to capital, to those people against whom the rural poor must fight in alliance with the urban workers.
