Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Tuesday Overnight Open Thread - March 18, 2025 [scampydog]![]() Unsurprisingly, there are differing explanations of how it started. One version claims a Greek soldier ran over the border chasing his dog (hence, it is sometimes referred to as the War of the Stray Dog), and the soldier was shot by Bulgarian sentries. The second version claims that Bulgarian troops crossed the border and killed a Greek officer and sentry. We have no idea what happened to the dog before anyone asks!This link goes a bit deeper. A couple of reports state that Greece was forced by the League of Nations to pay Bulgaria for the incursion and deaths. Ah yes, the Pig War. San Juan Island, just off the coast of Washington State. Rosario Strait (channel) granted the Island to the British. Haro Strait - to the United States. I see no potential problems with the survey. Hoo Boy... let the games begin. Real estate and taxes. Never a skirmish over those items. Cheese Cannonball! Battle of Los Angeles, 1942. They fought nothing. Bonus, UFO conspiracy theory. The potato battle. Get the closer up in the bullpen. As the destroyer careened toward the submarine that was half its size, ready to send it to the bottom, someone aboard the U.S. destroyer surmised the sub could be a minelayer and take the O'Bannon to the bottom of the ocean in the resulting explosion. The ship turned rudder in a hurry, only to find itself now alongside its determined enemy. They were too close to use that buttload of weapons - or even their sidearms. The Japanese naturally flipped the f*ck out when they realized they were next to an American destroyer. They scrambled, running for the ship's deck guns, which were the perfect weapon to use on the O'Bannon. The fortunes of the battle just changed 180 degrees. They needed to buy time to keep the enemy away from the deck guns while creating distance enough to use their own weapons - they looked around for anything they could chuck at the Japanese sailors. Luckily, they had been carrying bins of potatoes on the deck, and the Americans began to throw them at the crew of RO-34, who promptly began to flip the f*ck out once more. The half-asleep Japanese sailors thought they were hand grenades. ![]() — Spill The Memes (@SpillTheMemes) March 9, 2025 ![]() Send Viewfinder reels and Shear Pins to: scampydog at proton dot me Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

For strange battles, I nominate the Niihau Incident in WWII. Short version - Niihau was designated as a crash landing spot for Japanese pilots after Pearl Harbor. A jap pilot crashed there and convinced US citizens of Japanese ancestry that the emperor's troops were on the march and they should join him. A few did, and they had a small battle with the locals and the sherriff where a few were killed. This incident was a big part of the reason that the US decided it could not trust Japanese-Americans and interred them in camps.

My most memorable falls: Took a looooong stroll from the hostel in Taroko Gorge in Taiwan, started picking my way along a mountain path that deteriorated until it led into a cave on the side of a loose, damp cliff. I entered the cave and kept pressing in even as it got tighter and tinier and I had to turn around and go out. Outside, I figured I'd shimmy along the side of the mountain to get to the other side of this cave. Below me was the most tumultuous devil's punchbowl of a waterfall ever. Water roaring straight down into a pool that looked like a giant boiling cauldron it foamed so hard. No idea how deep it was. If you fell into it, you'd never get out; too much dissolved oxygen to float, so your best bet would be that somewhere at the bottom was a current that would shoot you downstream. I had shimmied about twenty feet along the side of the cliff, over that punchbowl, with another untold to go when I started to slip downward in fast, short slips. I realized the entire cliffside had the consistency of potting soil. I would try to grip it or dig my feet in, and that would either stop my slide or cause a big clump to form and fall away beneath me. ...

Another one I love, though it is not so much "strange" as "unknown" is the Polar Bear Expedition. Most don't know that after WWI, we did not just bring all of our troops home, but instead joined an allied force that invaded Russia to fight the Bolsheviks. We also landed Marines in Vladivostok in the East where we were allied with the Japs. We fought for a couple of years and had several hundred killed. This was a big part of why the Cold War developed as the reds never trusted us after this (though the commie bastards deserved it, and the world would have been better off if we had committed to fully crushing them in their infancy).

... I realized I was in trouble. Do not panic. Do not slide down this cliff. Every move was dangerous. I somehow inched my way back to firm ground and stared down at that giant pool. It was about 15 feet across, and I think the falls were about as tall as my one-story house, but VIOLENT. I went jaunting back to the hostel. Some Taiwanese guy asked me where I'd been. "On a hike." "Well, don't go to the side of the mountain that way!!!" (pointing to where I'd been). "That trail was closed since the flood because it's dangerous!" I'm just not going to do that sort of thing again. Posted by: Blonde Morticia at March 18, 2025 10:26 PM (lCaJd) 73

Havasu Falls, in the Grand Canyon. You’ve seen pictures of it even if you don’t know the name, because of the travertine in the water it’s always a brilliant blue. I’ve seen pictures now and the shape of it doesn’t look at all like I remember; but that’s every 15 - 20 years a big flood tears through that canyon and rips up and reroutes everything. The falls now, with their travertine terraces, are overlaid on top of a hundred or more previous versions of the falls. It’s like a piece of art that is constantly redrawn.

What was the population of Japanese extraction citizens on the west coast in 1941?
Let’s argue that most were no threat. But, perhaps 5 to 10 per cent could potentially be trouble. What number is that? I bet it equals an Army division, something like that. In Politics, nothing happens by chance, if it happens, somebody wants it that way. Keep in mind the Allies were getting their ass handed to them from ‘39 thru ‘43 or near enough. The outcome wasn’t known. And the US government wasn’t willing to leave anything to chance. I don’t believe they had the manpower or the resources for such a large undertaking that internment and relocation entailed for frivolous reasons. Everything was rationed - you couldn’t even buy a tube of toothpaste without turning in the empty tube (they were made of metal) for recycling. Ergo, If the government expended that much manpower and resources and $$$ to intern Japanese, that meant they were scared shitless Posted by: Common Tater at March 18, 2025 10:32 PM (gGTff) Posted by: Pikov Andropov at March 18, 2025 10:32 PM (y7zkd) 79

With 2 to 4 inches, or 4 to 8 inches depending on who you believe. But problem isn't the snow; it's the ghastly wind blowing the snow creating whiteouts. Of course, the weather will be beautiful again by Friday or so.

Back in the late eighties I took a 7 day raft trip through the Grand Canyon. On one of the side hikes, the guides took us to a falls, don't now the name of it. But you could brace yourself behind the falls, and when you let go, it would pull you straight down, and then shoot you back up. It was a bit scary, but definitely fun.

The Canadians also interred their subjects who were of Japanese ancestry.
Posted by: Anna Puma at March 18, 2025 10:33 PM (Ocj/H) We interned them, did not bury them. We had Liberal governments in both Ottawa and Victoria, and therefore they were corrupt and crooked. Much Japanese property, like fishboats and real estate, and home furnishings, were stolen, and they were never compensated. Stolen by Liberals. The internees were not crammed into camps, but resettled in safe interior towns like Greenwood, B.C. and Lethbridge, Alberta, and quickly became part of the local economy. Some of the internees took root there, and never returned to the Coast. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at March 18, 2025 10:42 PM (MqtqS) 102

“What is your fair share of what someone else has earned?”
Thomas Sowell has a way of distilling issues down to the basics. Schumer is a Fossil at this point, arguing points and hurling invective over something that was disingenuous a hundred years ago.

With a new bar and chain on it, the 20" Chinesium chainsaw worked just fine. We were able to clear deadfall off the cat trail down to the dam on the little pond at Osprey's place, so a trackhoe or other machine could get down there without wasting time clearing its own way. But it is just not saw enough to cut up a 24"-plus green oak log. I can slowly worry through it, but it's too slow to be of much use.

The Exclusion Order affected 110,000 men, women, and children. Manzanar in California itself housed 10,000.
But did they stay in those camps for all of the war? No. May 1, 1943, edition of Manzanar's Free Press "Certified by the Federal government as a loyal American, Fred A. Hiroaka ... became Chief Engineer in Hastings Nebraska, recently. ... He is replacing Chief Engineer Duanne B. Allison who is entering the Army after serving the station for the past two years. Same edition had an advertisement for jobs far from the camp to pick sugar beets for the Utah-Idaho Sugar Company. But was it all roses? No. November 1942, when Marines were engaged in savage combat on Guadalcanal, the guard towers at Manzanar lacked electricity and the fence was not finished. Even after the Manzanar Uprising in December 1942 in which three were killed and ten wounded, none escaped. Posted by: Anna Puma at March 18, 2025 10:52 PM (Ocj/H) 127

By all accounts, everybody who knew Ruby said he was crazy, really out there bad. He was the last person in the world you’d trust for something as important as getting rid of Oswald. That part doesn’t add up.
If you follow the timeline, he sent a wire off, had his dog with him in the car and left it, they changed the time Oswald was being moved, it wasn’t totally random, but there’s no way it was “planned”. He did want to kill him, obviously. I think probably Oswald hung out at Ruby’s strip club, they knew each other, at least in passing. Something like that. Supposedly the secret service partied well into the morn of 22 November ‘63 at Ruby’s club. They were all hung over pretty good. There was a cover up, but a lot of it was for more mundane reasons.

I have a friend whose paternal grandparents were intered. Central CA farmers. (Table grapes, iirc) The other farmers knew the gvt would steal the land if it became "unkempt" so they all took turns doing whatever it is that must be done to keep table grapes thriving. When her grandparents were released, their farm looked better than any surrounding farm for miles. Her grandparents never, ever forgot it. They were also very patriotic and she never heard them say anything bad about what had been done.

A complete change of topic.
I had seen ads for Medicare 'extra' benefits but I never had them. Then my plan was cancelled and I had to change. There were very few choices, like 7 IIRC, and I chose a $35 extra premium plan (on top of Medicare's $185). This plan has extra benefits. One of them is a pre-paid type credit card that is loaded at the beginning of each quarter with $95; it's money you either use or you lose at the end of a quarter. Free money. I can buy over-the-counter along with a selection of other products like TP. But no food. That's small potatoes compared to what's been stolen and could have gone to us, or never even taken away as taxes in the first place. The Democrats are why we can't have nice things.

If Musk or DOGE had actually fired anyone, they might have a point.
They are just wildly flailing at this point. Whack jobs issuing dictats from the bench. Very sad because it makes the public distrust them and their institutions even more than they already do, they were held about on par with dogshit. They are corrupt, conflicts of interest, on the take. Whatever ultimately happens, it will happen much quicker now, which I think is .. ultimately a good thing.

Why doesn't Trump make Elon a US Government official? One of the Powerline lawyers considers the latest reversal (un-firing of USAID employees) to have merit, since DOGE and Elon are not constitutionally or legally empowered to fire government employees. I'm simplifying, but Powerline assures us the opinion is lengthy and balanced.

I did not know that DOGE fired a single person. A "Judge" declared this to be a fact? Posted by: Itinerant Alley Butcher ========== It is odd. "the Appointments Clause of the Constitution; plaintiffs allege that Elon Musk could not make the decision to effectively shut down USAID because he is acting as an Officer of the United States without having been duly appointed to such a role." But DOGE didn't fire anyone from USAID. Lawsuits were filed against Bessent, Rubio, and Trump. So is this about a "decision" as opposed to an action?

Strange battles: every year in May my college played Spartan Madball, on a soccer field with about 100 people on a side, and the only rule was to get the ball in the goal by whatever means possible. Also the Battle of Salamis, where a greased watermelon was dropped into the college creek from a helicopter and teams would go out in rowboats and try to bring it to shore. Good times.

>> I wonder if having been in weightless conditions in space for many months would render a person susceptible to motion sickness aboard a ship in a gentle swell?
IIRC, the "motion sickness" can go both ways, and this varies with each individual. Some will get nauseated on return to 1g. They will be undergoing physical therapy routines they've worked out to help get them back to 1g as fast as possible. Bone density loss is a problem. 1 year in zero-g is sort of limit. Longer than that, and there may be more permanent problems. 9 months is getting close that. Butch and Suni will have it a little harder than the normal 6 month crew stints.

Zero-g has also sorts of ill effects beyond that which are obvious, turns out. Immune system function gets compromised, and they tend to get more colds and the like after return than normal. Everything about life here evolved and operated in 1g, and that's just the basic "given" to everything. Every process in the human body works in 1g acceleration, and that can affect things in ways you don't even think about.

Cultists?
Met one today at lunch. Tried to ignore his beating the bully pulpit where upon he decried his expertise in everything on politics. His lunch partner, an older gentleman, even tried to shut him down politely with "if you know so much why don't you be President." But he persisted. I had been rolling my eyes the whole time. And his lunch partner caught me rolling them again when he started talking about how cultists they are with the red hats and shirts. So, the older guy addressed me directly. With invitation in hand, I merely asked the SME "you mean like all those people going 'mmm mm mmm Obama,' like those cultists?" He quickly changed the subject and started expounding upon why he is such a god when it comes to medicine. Some people refuse to take the hint they ain't hot sh1t.

I have moved from Shostakovich back to where I belong: Tchaikovsky.
Tchaikovsky's violin concerto is, in my opinion, one of the most spectacular pieces ever made. It was panned - even hated - in its own time and Tchaikovsky wrote little for the violin after his concerto was so negatively received. I think that's tragic because I really adore the piece. The hands-down best performance of it I have ever heard was made by a fellow called David Oistrach, a Soviet violinist. He performed it in Dresden in 1954. It must have been surreal listening to such a stupendous performance of this kind of music in a war-torn city in the heart of the GDR, played an artist from the imperial capital on purloined instruments. If you like orchestral music, or the violin, or Tchaikovsky, give it a listen. https://youtu.be/Y_BOxAEs5rg Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at March 18, 2025 07:48 PM (kBSKe) 16

Those Kennedy files are a serious rabbit hole that's easy to get lost within. There's a whole section on Alpha 66 (para-military anti-Castro org. that set up in the US, was training down in Mexico). The CIA was using a free lance journalist named Johnny O'Donnell to spy on them...and apparently they are still active today down in Florida.
The bizarre thing is that Johnny O'Donnell passed away in Sept. of last year. I just read his obituary put together by his family. Former Marine, some of the stories he wrote....but absolutely nothing about his spying on Alpha 66 for the govt. despite a multitude of contacts. That family is going to be surprised to see their patriarch showing up in the Kennedy files. Posted by: Orson at March 18, 2025 08:26 PM (dIske) 117

Launches - especially manned launches - are expensive, dangerous and difficult to coordinate. Their ride up couldn't bring them down, so they got to join the ISS crew until the next scheduled turnover. A special mission to go get them would have introduced significant optional risks given that they were safely aboard the ISS. It sucks that their trip suddenly jumped from a few days to several months, but I don't think the decision to leave them there was political so much as it was practical. They were safe, the return craft was an unknown and the next mission was already penciled in. The political move would have been for Biden to tell Musk to get on the stick and go get them back home ASAP, damn the expense, and then played it for tremendous political gain. That's the play Trump probably would have made. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at March 18, 2025 08:34 PM (kBSKe) 146

Muldoon - Part 1 - Consider for a few moments the heart of a human baby. It is a few ounces of muscle, fat and connective tissue that has a rhythmic, self-sustaining electrical system. It consists of two separate but remarkably similar pumps, the right and left sides of the heart. It is fully formed by the 8th week of gestation, and continues to beat rhythmically, steadily and continuously for up to 100 years, without any outside help in the vast majority of instances. The stunning symmetry of the microscopic arrangement of myosin and actin protein fibers creates a highly efficient pumping machine. The delicate and yet durable valves regulate the direction of blood flow through the veins and arteries. Consider the simple mechanical elegance of this one single organ.
And then ask yourself one question... Is there any conceivable way that this was the result of a slimy puddle of primordial goo randomly organizing with this heart as the accidental (natural selection) result? What has always bothered me is that any precursor organs would fail and, unless the present organ was conceived as a whole, the organ would fail.

What is the rate? What is the mechanism? How does an animal without wings grow them? If it's a mutation, than how does it repeat and form a functional limb?

Genetic Entropy is real. It is observable and can be measured. Destruction mutations are legion, its profoundly rare to ever have a beneficial mutation. The phrase "dying you shall die" could be translated into mutation following mutation that leads to the end of that genetic line.

Every post you’ve made on this topic shows a stunning ignorance of what the various hypotheses actually say. You seem stuck on the idea that just because your worldview requires magic, that everyone else’s does as well. You assume that evolution must produce fully-formed organisms in 6 days because that’s what your mystical, incoherent and contradictory tome stipulates.

There are two versions of many things in the OT, most especially the 1st and 2nd Kings is doubled up by 1st and 2nd Chronicles. Probable reason is a bit of history - recall how David and Solomon’s Kingdom split up into the kingdoms of Israel and Judah? Each Capitol, Jerusalem and Samaria, had its own version of their history and Holy writings. After everything fell and the survivors were carried off to Babylon, the scholars set to work rewriting and unifying all that survived; but the work they did still bears evidence of the 2 sources from which it was crafted.
And while we’re in the topic, the Book of Job probably wasn’t a Jewish writing at all, but much older. Maybe even Sumerian. Posted by: Tom Servo at March 18, 2025 09:20 PM (T+ixL) 341

Thus my earlier comparison of the Chihuahua and the Irish wolfhound — both technically the same species, but utterly dissimilar, and obviously incapable of interbreeding.
Posted by: Bulg at March 18, 2025 09:09 PM (77rzZ) Zoologists are starting to dislike the term "species" and like to work around it since there is not nearly as much contrast between species, and far too much contrast within species to make a solid definition possible. They are starting to like "clades" better, but they still are unhappy, and the concept of "crown" species is making them run around in circles and write odd papers at each other. personally I think it has to do more with how "species" breed, and how the select mates, but I am a lowly BA in a liberal arts so no one pays attention to me. with CRISPR tech we are going to wind up completely divorced with species, and we may wind up looking a something like "Cell Line" or "germ line" to keep the books straight.

There are plenty of species on Earth, right now, that have “partial eyes.” As for your question: the ability to detect light—at all—is a benefit over not being able to detect it. Plants can detect light, for example. Increasing resolution of light detection is also obviously useful. In the land of blind species, even a “partial eye” makes you a king. Come on, try harder.

Never once does the Bible say the earth is 5,000 years old. That claim comes from some 17th century English Bishop named Usher, nothing more. It’s bizarre how people get stuck on that.

Zoologists are starting to dislike the term "species" and like to work around it since there is not nearly as much contrast between species, and far too much contrast within species to make a solid definition possible. They are starting to like "clades" better, but they still are unhappy, and the concept of "crown" species is making them run around in circles and write odd papers at each other.
personally I think it has to do more with how "species" breed, and how the select mates, but I am a lowly BA in a liberal arts so no one pays attention to me. with CRISPR tech we are going to wind up completely divorced with species, and we may wind up looking a something like "Cell Line" or "germ line" to keep the books straight.

Posted by: Tom Servo at March 18, 2025 09:20 PM (T+ixL) --- One thing I find fascinating is how the various religions seem to be describing the same stuff albeit from different perspectives. I've been digging into this more and ore, and it's uncanny. There really isn't any conflict between Greek or Babylonian myths and the Bible, it's just who is telling the story. God is unique, however, insofar as He is limitless, while the other pantheons are not. They have sharply curtailed abilities, spheres of activity, but God is without limit. I'm fully buying into St. Augustine's observation that pagan gods are the fallen angels, and certainly their behavior lives up to that. There aren't really any "good" pagan gods, truly merciful ones, and they turn on each other all the time. As I said, it's fascinating. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

I see that as well, and I mention Job because I find it incredibly wise and insightful.

Here's a question:
Why did all the miracles stop? The Bible is full of miracle stories. Genesis, the flood, pillars of salt, pillars of fire, parting of seas, immaculate conception, the dead rising from the grave, water walking the Bible kind of ends on a cliffhanger: Jesus ascends to Heaven, with plans to come back at some future date. Then, nothing else miraculous happens. No more smiting or brimstone or rivers running red with blood. Why did everything stop two thousand and some odd years ago? Posted by: Don Black ============ Tangential, but I'm curious about a more recent dearth of miracles. It strikes me that it's getting more and more difficult to canonize saints because the church can't identify a miracle the candidate was responsible for. In the olden days, there were stigmata, visions, speaking in tongues, fasting for years, bodies that didn't corrupt, levitation, torture devices flying to pieces, etc. I wonder why those things aren't so common anymore.

I'm answering your question: If it's a mutation, than how does it repeat and form a functional limb?
Is it the repetition that you think can't happen, or the formation a functional limb? Posted by: Blonde Morticia at March 18, 2025 09:10 PM (lCaJd) Gould called it "the hopeful monster" but I don't think he was serious. I am not a evolutionary biologist, but the current orthodoxy is that the "crown group or species" is the first appearance of the ancestor of all the current species of a phylum, or class or order (depending) but the current observation is that the crown species have descendant species that will have atavistic (throwback) characteristics. It seems that mutations that are useful may need to survive many evolutionary changes to be permanent, or at least the alternate genetics have to be winnowed out through multiple evolutions. Also, mutations that are useful in some situations may be useless in other environments, and things which are energy intense but not useful tend to be lost.

Colombian gas stoves may well have fewer safety features that have been mandated for stoves sold in the USA. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at March 18, 2025 09:23 PM (MqtqS) Current Colombian stoves probably have more safety features than US gas stoves made in the 1920's - 1970's, some of which are still probably in use, and don't seem to have killed too many people.

there is a chance that the stoves built in Colombia are subsidized, there has been a long tendency to promote property ownership and agricultural development similar to the TVA project and the various USDA programs in the US.
Posted by: Kindltot at March 18, 2025 10:13 PM (D7oie) Jeremy Boering Is Out at the Daily WireBelow, a YouTube guy named Ian Carroll -- who seems to be no friend of Boering or Ben Shapiro -- claims he's heard rumors that the resignation is due to vague claims about Boering's "egotism." And also about overspending on his pet entertainment projects, like "The Pendragon Cycle." He claims the Daily Wire is losing money and is looking to sell out to a big firm.

Not surprised if these rumors about DW losing money are true. Boering launched a ton of stupid virtue-signaling initiatives, from Jeremy's Razors (which was FAR outside their core competency), to "Terror on the Prairie" (which, as much as I love Gina Carano, I didn't see) and "Ladyballers" (which, as someone else pointed out, is a 10 minute sketch stretched out to 90 minutes). I get that they were trying to work towards Andrew Breitbart's famous point about politics being downstream from culture, but they just didn't have the knack for driving culture. Shapiro's quote about how "facts don't care about your feelings" is far more of a cultural touchstone than any of these side projects the Daily Wire shat out.
I do like Daily Wire's content, particularly Jordan Peterson and occasionally Ben Shapiro, but I don't follow it obsessively or even regularly. Perhaps if they were to refocus on their core competency they could get back in the black. Posted by: Caiwyn at March 18, 2025 07:12 PM (gUUVC) 81

"Tea" is the thing nowadays. I don't know whether you spill it or share it or what, but there's "tea" all over the place. Jeremy Boering is the guy who made his own razors after Gillette said its customers (men) are toxic and depicted a teenage girl who'd "transitioned" to male and grown a beard and daddy in a touching moment was teaching her how to shave her newly-whiskered face. Just like real dads whose daughters have mutilated themselves. He made funny commercials about his razor and I guess it was him who decided to make an alternate Snow White movie starring Brett Cooper. He also made that cowboy revenge movie starring Gina Carano, and when I say "made," I don't know what that means. Raised money for it, spent money on it? I don't know. Anyway, if he wants to spend all his energy going Hollywood, I'm curious but not one bit confident that he'll make it big. Posted by: Blonde Morticia at March 18, 2025 07:12 PM (lCaJd) 83

His instincts are still NY moderate lefty, so when some event happens like the Covington kids, he always has the wrong take initially. Its annoying. Generally I like Shaprio even if he's mildly irritating, but he needs to take conservatism into his system more fully rather than a mental exercise.

Can someone tell me why trade deficits do or do not matter?
Posted by: JROD at March 18, 2025 07:25 PM (IlL6s) ++++ In a nutshell: because you have to pay them somehow. When there's a trade imbalance, it must net out *somewhere* and *somehow.* This primarily happens because eventually, money must come home. When you run a trade deficit, you are dumping your currency abroad in exchange for stuff, but that money has to be used for *something.* The most common are either the divestiture of assets or a weakening of the currency. When your money fills their coffers, they will buy your shit with it. Stuff like ports being sold to foreign enterprises, foreign corporate takeovers, etc., is all tied into trade balance. Barring that - or in addition to it - your currency falls in relative value. Too much of it floating around abroad, so foreigners want more of it for any given thing. Its effects mimic inflation to some degree. The US is a special case because our currency remains generally useful even abroad and so we have greater flexibility than, say, Portugal - but we are not immune. It also ties into fiscal deficits for more complicated reasons. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at March 18, 2025 07:40 PM (kBSKe) 178

There's some cool stuff in those archives pretty much removed from the assassination. Apparently, the FBI tried to find Soviet spies by offering jobs throughout the country for Russian language teachers. They have these guys show up and they'd then vet them. If they spent time in the USSR, they'd follow up and put them under surveillance. The one I'm reading now is a gem. This guy claims the USSR allowed him to leave the country by mistake, that there were busy with other things. The interviewee (either CIA or FBI) thought that was hilarious.

Jeremy Boering is the guy who made his own razors after Gillette said its customers (men) are toxic and depicted a teenage girl who'd "transitioned" to male and grown a beard and daddy in a touching moment was teaching her how to shave her newly-whiskered face. Just like real dads whose daughters have mutilated themselves.
Posted by: Blonde Morticia at March 18, 2025 07:12 PM (lCaJd) That's actually not the reason he launched Jeremy's Razors. He actually did it in response to Harry's Razors dropping advertising from The Daily Wire. Granted, Harry's had caved to left-wing pressure tactics, but regardless, Boering did this specifically in a weak attempt to retaliate against a former advertiser. It had nothing to do with Gilette. In fact, Harry's (and its primary competitor, Dollar Shave Club) is the primary reason Gilette is losing money these days. Posted by: Caiwyn at March 18, 2025 08:06 PM (gUUVC) 197

Posted by: Caiwyn at March 18, 2025 08:06 PM (gUUVC) ++++ I used to do the DSC thing, and then they went too woke and I dropped them. That's when I learned that DSC isn't a real manufacturer. They just buy bulk from Korea's "Dorco" and rebrand it with their slick (and increasingly stupid) packaging. Well, I can do that, too. I buy my cartridges in bulk on the internet from Dorco about once a year. Same product, and about the same price (I don't get DSC's millions-of-units price breaks) as I paid when buying from DSC. It's fine. Not the best razors, but get the job done and are affordable. And I cut out the woke middle man. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at March 18, 2025 08:12 PM (kBSKe) 198

I'm guessing this probably has more to do with the way Daily Wire replaced Brett Cooper on her own show and then publicly badmouthed her for not openly and repeatedly defending her replacement. Add on top of that the two other high profile talent feuds (Candace Owens and Steven Crowder) and there appears to be a pattern.

I thought it was hilarious that one of the rescue crew (Russian) wore an ALIEN mask as he entered the ISS.
Perfect splashdown. Health issues, especially for late-middle aged astros, include osteoporosis and muscle wasting. Also, when you're on orbit, your bodily fluids migrate "up," so you feel like your sinuses are clogged the whole time, kind of like hanging upside down. The other thing, which is seldom discussed with civilians, is that you're above the atmosphere and thus exposed to hard radiation through the skin of the ship for all those months. That's just one of the challenges we'll have to beat for a Mars mission, as the Martian atmosphere is too thin to protect you from cosmic rays.

Kept hearing about the poor stranded astronauts, and finally looked at the Wiki entries. Both of them have been to the ISS before, in fact Suni was in command once. I'm sure they would have preferred to return as scheduled but neither was inexperienced. Which was something of a surprise after repeatedly hearing "poor stranded astronauts".

Who you callin' senile, jack? I remember plenty! Like when we used to slay dragons, not feed them spacemen.
I might be a whiskey swilling Fenian pervert, but I still helped the English, because I take action when a dragon's on the loose! They had one of these scaly MAGA reptiles prowling the countryside. The Princess told me all about how that orange bastard gobbled up all the cattle, stole all the jewels, and then started gobbling up whole people, by jove! So I shot him right in the mouth with Jill's 8-gauge blunderbuss, because Democrats believe all women. He was deader than my beloved son Beau, who he'd already bitten in two. I tried to save him, which is when I founded the Red Cross, and the Princess so grateful that she made it the flag of England. Then she let Lil' Hunty bang her out while he held a gun to her head, high on ye olde cracke. True story. Word as a Brandon. Posted by: Brandon at March 18, 2025 06:23 PM (BI5O2) 156

Because the Biden Admin wouldn't pay additional money to SpaceX to bring them down sooner, you tool! Homer Hickam - AlGore made the right call for Clinton, getting the Russians on-board to make the ISS happen! Couldn't have been done without them! I've met Russians, they're swell!

I was a pallbearer and caught a cold. I rarely get sick. He lived in his house up to the last several months. I was go-to person for him. His daughters live in the next city so if they were worried I would check in on him. I took care of yardwork and helped him out. Never wanted anything. Everything was to honor my Father. But after 10 years, my uncle did give me money which was nice. Didn't need to, but that was nice. So 2 dead. Tough year. Less importantly, my hard drive died, I lost my Microsoft account and the phone for 2 way verification is gone. That's a gift that keeps on giving. My usual response to "How are you?" is "Every moment, pure joy." Which always gets a laugh. I'm getting better. Thank you so much for asking. I have to so post pics to the Pet thread....

Well she has a bit of a hand up: the great Steven Spielberg cast her as a lead, which led every studio in town to think "she's the next BIG THING we should cast her too!"

268 Gref,
I remember the Russians standing outside of the Space Station Processing Facility smoking cigarettes. They were pretty friendly but kind of grumpy. "So, you call this a free country? We have to go outside to smoke! In Russia we can smoke where ever we want!" Some of them became legendary with the heavy partying set. Posted by: pawn at March 18, 2025 06:41 PM (QB+5g) I dealt with the Russian manned spaceflight organization almost daily from late 1992 to mid-1997, working the Shuttle-Mir Program. The Russians were friendly, overall, but they could be 'difficult' to say the least. They are smart space guys. We got along by never talking foreign affairs/politics. Made easier by the fall of the USSR a couple years before we started our work. Some managers still had huge portraits of Lenin in their offices. A statue of Lenin remained in the lobby of Mir Mission Control Center. But both sides knew it was a shotgun marriage. That job almost killed me but I will never regret getting that assignment.

Phenomenal! I am in such awe over Elon genius when I think of all of the progressive businesses he has created. Watching Space X retrieve the stranded astronauts while over compensated, sexist, racist, NASA sat around waiting for Elon to rescue the astronauts tells me, enough is enough with NASA. DOGE needs to gut it. I love space exploration and I’ve been watching and reading about it since the early 60’s. However, to watch what Elon has done in just five years is it it’s it’s amazing and NASA she just behind their heads in shame..

I’ll bet the big wigs of NASA have realized their days are numbers. Look what Musk has done inside 10 years compared to the trillions of dollars and decades NASA has be around. Granted there are some wonderful outer space satellites and probes out in space which I love to read and see about but to not bring in people to move the program into the 21 century is what hold this country back…the old guard. The status quo. Cough. Look at the dragon, the space suits, their boots, the way they sit inside the capsule, the retrieving of the capsule after landing in the water, not to mention the greatest feat of all…the chopsticks!

Posted by: AgathaPagatha at March 18, 2025 10:17 PM (RyKJA) Vibe Shift: HBO's "White Lotus" Features Trump-Supporting Character Bullied by AWFLs and Dares to Mention That Some "Transgenders" Are Auto-Gynophiles Who Are Sexually Turned On By the Thought of Being WomenI don't know about this show except that the first season featured Sydney Sweeney. I also saw that the creator Mike White, who wrote School of Rock and played Ned Schneibly (the real one), is gay. I imagine he has conventional leftwing politics. So does this mean that even some of Hollywood's liberals are getting sick of woke sermonizing?That article also mentions a TikToker who the Woke Mob came for, suspecting she may have voted for Trump. The cancellation failed, and she actually gained millions of followers, including Riley Gaines. The scene described above can be viewed below:
The below YouTuber points out another deviation from leftwing cult doctrine. The left has made sure that no one can speak of the sexual fetish autogynophilia on Regime-patrolled comms. Their propaganda is that every trans "woman" is an angel living her best life who would never invade spaces because the man pretending to be a woman gets off on it. But the show features a character played by Sam Rockwell who says he gets off on the idea of a being "an Asian woman" getting "f***ed" by himself. What? I don't know, it's a perversion, it doesn't have to make sense. Descriptions of sexual perversions in the clips below.

That first video really struck a nerve. We were at a wedding, and some old friends, one a minister, were sitting at our table. Somehow, the conversation got around to Trump, and we both said we voted for him and liked what he had done. They looked horrified, and said "but you're smart?". They both obviously then realized what they sounded like, and stopped. This is the attitude among the bien pensants.

----------- Yes, but you're high-lighting one of the differences between the sexes. If 2 guys don't get along, they'll be course around each other for a short period of time until its mutually agreed to either let it go or "step outside". Either way, the period of conflict is short. Women on the other hand are capable of slow, deliberate burns and sabotage of each other for *years* on end with no "step outside" phase that would have ended it long before.

GoT is on the Double Secret 12th Season which is a crossover with White Lotus.
The main storyline involves the dwarf bottoming for a dragon while imagining himself to be a Thai Lady Boi...or Tim Walz. I forget which. Posted by: naturalfake at March 18, 2025 05:43 PM (iJfKG) I always hated those crossover episodes. Screech goes to visit his uncle, Walter White, and learns a thing or two about science.

A surprising number of Americans from liberal states and cities that I’ve encountered on my foreign travels — especially the further away from USA I get — are conservative.

My daughter and I just started watching this WL and just finished Season 1 which took place in Hawaii. It shows a lot of wealthy liberals in all of their hypocritical glory and idiocy. It is very multi-faceted and we are hooked. We are starting Season 2 tonight which takes place in Sicily. Black comedy indeed.

It amazes me this show is popular with the Left. They LOVE it. And yet every season features some woke shitlib doing woke shitlib shit. This is the first time politics have been mentioned in particular.
Last season, there was a female character who had ascended to the top spot at her company because of a #Metoo allegation and did NOT like that being pointed out. Her daughter (Sweeney) was god awful. Even Jennifer Coolidge's character, the most popular on the show, treated an employee like shit, promising to start a business with her and then dropping her like it was nothing. All of this flies over their heads. Posted by: Ktgreat at March 18, 2025 05:54 PM (33LJY) 167

I see "white Lotus" and my mind immediately goes for the Chinese slang meaning
"The term refers to a female character who appears innocent, naïve, impossibly perfect, and pure on the surface, but uses this reputation to back stab, blame, or sling mud on others. The term was inspired by the lotus plant, which has a beautiful flower floating on top of water, hiding the plant's messy roots stuck in marshy mud."

Auto-Gynophiles
---------- I've had it up to my eyeballs with all these fake words. "Pervert" works just fine, and I don't have to wade through a morass of masturbatory postmodern dialectics to figure out what you're prattling about this. What we need is common sense auto-logophile control. When you see someone who gets their kicks by making up a bunch of stupid fucking words and inflicting them on others, you clap them in an iron mask with a bit in their teeth for the rest of their life. I know - it's far too compassionate. Personally, I'd just cut out their tongues and lop off their fingers to save on valuable iron, but I can compromise.

White Lotus is another one of those shows that is only hyped because HBO has the right influencers on its payroll. It only saw 1 and half episodes, and it was stupid and boring AF. Those clips don’t do anything to change my opinion. I don’t think many people actually like it. They just pretend to.
Posted by: Elric Blade at March 18, 2025 05:38 PM (yWH+O) I think the "stupid and boring" is just the modern writer at work. With no limitations of fitting in a short show, or a tight media size people are able to just take their rough draft script and blather on.

John Sexton reports that the Hamas-supporting rag the New York Times whitewashed Mahmoud Khalil's radicalism, but now softly admits he supports "armed resistance," which "Israel calls terrorism." ...at a discussion sponsored by the coalition of student protesters, he remarked that whether Palestinian resistance was peaceful or armed, "Israel and their propaganda always find something to attack." He added, "They -- we -- have tried armed resistance, which is, again, legitimate under international law." But Israel calls it terrorism, he said...Sexton also reports that colleges -- or what were once colleges -- are realizing that they have lost the support of most of the country and the left doesn't have the power to save them. Columbia University is just the start of a long-brewing backlash. On Monday of this week the Trump administration's Department of Education put 60 schools on notice that they will lose federal funding if they don't do more to crack down on antisemitism on campus. ... Unfortunately for many of these schools, they are only now realizing that they don't have a lot of friends to take up any slack if their budgets are cut.[NYT:] Prestigious universities have come to find adversaries in many worlds, among the working class, among rich alumni, among highly educated progressives who find them self-regarding. "Universities are good targets for resentment," said Michael Roth, the president of Wesleyan University who has written about modern campus politics. "They take such enormous pride in how many people they reject. "We at universities have not done enough over the years to pay attention to those groups -- conservative groups, religious groups -- around the country that are essential parts of a democratic culture. The isolation makes us very vulnerable." Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

"No matter how many times Mr. Wilson removed the swastikas, individuals kept replacing them with more."
Wilson lost track of how many swastikas he had to scrub, but his colleague Torres, who is Latino, pegged it in the dozens and eventually reached a point where he had enough, his complaint said. "They were so offensive, and Columbia's inaction was so frustrating, that he eventually began throwing away chalk that had been left in the classrooms so vandals would not have anything to write with," Torres' complaint alleged.

The Aryans the NAZIs claimed were Germans were actually the people that conquered Iran/Northern India as part of the Indo-European migration and conquests.
I'd guess without looking it up that is why the NAZIs took the swastika as their symbol. Posted by: 18-1 at March 18, 2025 04:34 PM (t0Rmr) 64
I have a not altogether tongue-in-cheek idea. I think it should be a graduation requirement from any college, but most especially the "prestigious" ones, that a student demonstrate the ability to fix a toilet and change a tire.

As I noted in my photo essays long ago:
In the old days, anti-semites would display swastikas as a way of saying, "I am a Nazi and I hate Jews." Nowadays, anti-semites display swastikas as a way of saying, "JEWS are Nazis and therefore I hate them." At least that's their claim. The swastika-drawing is an accusation, not a self-identification. But let's ignore their self-professed motivations. What's the real reason? My theory is that a swastika is the ultimate taboo symbol, and it simply gives these assholes a thrill to display the most taboo thing they can -- exactly like a 4-year-old who learns his first swear word and uses it over and over because of the excitement of violating social norms. It's either that, or these "anti-Zionist" protestors are just straight-up Arab Nazis, nd just lying about the "Jews are the real Nazis" justification.

Really fucks it up when people are chasing Jews, and assaulting people for serving Jews and drawing swastikas.

According to SpaceX's tracking page, Dragon is now on the western side of Australia, about to whip around over the Pacific. Trunk has been jettisoned. De-orbit burn coming up. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at March 18, 2025 05:08 PM (w6EFb) 295
I thought deorbit and reentry were two different things. Reentry is just entering the atmosphere again. Deorbit is the specific retrograde burn maneuver that makes you throw yourself at the ground and... not miss. Deorbit leads to Reentry.
Posted by: Warai-otoko at March 18, 2025 05:05 PM (KtIIi) The deorbital burn is the action that starts deorbit/reentry/landing on the moon. All you are really doing is changing the orbit to one that intersects the ground.

The deorbit delta-V for Dragon is not all that much, just 50 something m/s. Basically, you're just lowering perigee, so the orbital trajectory gets into the atmosphere at the proper angle you want. Atmospheric friction then slows you down from orbital velocity. IIRC, the "entry point" for the atmosphere is taken as 100 km altitude, or about 54 miles.

Newt Gingrich
@NewtGingrich If Chief Justice John Roberts wants to minimize attacks on out of control leftwing district court judges abusing their role and claiming to be able to overrule the elected President of the United States on management details that are clearly within his role as defined within the Constitution and the Federalist Papers then he should intervene and overrule these absurd power grabs. The Chief Justice can defend the Court by overruling bad judges before the Executive and Legislative branches start acting against them. The burden is on the Chief Justice - not the President of the United States. Hear, hear. Posted by: Cheri at March 18, 2025 05:29 PM (oiNtH) 408

I'm pretty sure the primary issue with being a student in public school for me was the long haired idiots hanging out in the bathrooms smoking. Annoying, but hardly life changing or damaging (other than the smell).
Were I in public school today with the same mindset I held back then, I'd likely be expelled within a week. Not because I was a bad kid, or disruptive.

A few years ago I asked this question.
Prostitution is legal in Nevada. Let's say Candy is out trolling for girl clients, since she's a lesbian prostitute. I presume they have those. If some guy in a dress shows up, will the state force her to "service" the guy? And what do we call it when a woman is forced to have sex with someone: rape. Would the trannie movement demand the "right" to have state sanctioned rape? Of course they would. Posted by: SimoHayha at March 18, 2025 03:36 PM (qXL9c) 73
The girls should have continued to refuse to change in front of the boy ... BUT that is hard for 8th graders -- to go against the power of the teachers (and the governor, and legal counsel). Parents need to prep them to refuse such a perverse invasion.

That's an interesting tidbit. What does she mean? That there already exist "neutral" lockers where this pervert could change without bothering the girls? If so, then this pervert isn't just a pervert, he's an exhibitionist bully who hates girls. Big shocker. Perverts like this need their dicks cut off. Not joking. They claim they're women.

The rot here, like everywhere else, is legion.
In my county, the school board is unapologetic about pursuing political goals in support of the Dims. The money they demand is obscene. The Super (who insists on being called Dr....) is a cliche-spouting joke. School materials are crazy stupid (one workbook credited the creation of online banking to Kenya). Individual teachers tend to be hit or miss. Grading standards are loose at best. All of this adds up to college admissions boards laughing off any applications from graduates of Fairfax County Public Schools. Plenty of garbage embedded in the school systems...

So, as near as I can figure, the Left wants to destroy the nation/state, reconstitute it as a bunch of satrapies completely loyal to a governing global elite, and create an androgynous society. On the other hand, this scheme also creates a class of criminals, which, although necessary to undermine traditional societal traditions and norms, would seem to be a bit of a problem, even in a world as Soros and company envision it. Maybe once the globalists acquire complete control - which is obviously the goal - they'll resume higher incarceration rates, the criminal element having served its purpose of destabilizing the old society. I wouldn't be surprised to see the new masters commence killing off the criminals at that stage.

The correct answer to this stuff is to prosecute the school administrators under existing sex offender laws - send them to jail and put them on the registry which will keep them from ever working in a school again.

Gay marriage is where the progressives first weaponized sympathy.
imo, it's not sympathy, it's the incessant need to be the victim and have the white knights swarm them with platitudes for everyone to see.

>>> 274 All of a sudden public school administrators all over Illinois are pushing for a statewide ban on cellphones in classrooms. Pritzker is pushing hard for it. The stated reason is student distraction, but that is no different than it's been for at least the past 10 years.

This would explain why you have school boards crazed with power in Dem-controlled areas -- because they have Party support, and the fix is in, and so they can do all the crazy things they want, or that their crazy leftist friends want.

As for smelly chick, the astronauts almost certainly have powered showers that do a very good job of cleaning your shit up. It's what's used in hospitals when water can't be used (bandages, tubes, etc) and on long hiking trips. It's not as good as a water shower, but it works.

Posted by: Dr. Mabuse at March 18, 2025 07:43 PM (uY1j2) Fort Myers City Council Members Openly Weep and Hold Hands When Asked to Authorize Police Cooperation With ICEBefore getting to that: Biden low-balled the number of invaders he allowed to swarm into the country. Plot twist. The number of illegal invaders was double what Biden claimed.Joe Biden's presidency oversaw an unprecedented surge in immigration, with new data revealing the scale of the influx. According to a recent op-ed by Jason Richwine at the Center for Immigration Studies, net international migration during Biden's tenure was far higher than originally reported, reaching 2.8 million in 2024 alone. The foreign-born population in the U.S. has now reached a historic 53.3 million, with illegal immigration driving much of the increase. In contrast, President Trump's policies have significantly reduced illegal border crossings. Key Details: The Census Bureau revised its net migration figures for 2022 and 2023 from 2 million to 4 million, with 2024 alone adding 2.8 million. The foreign-born population has hit a record 53.3 million, up from 45 million four years ago, with nearly two-thirds of the increase attributed to illegal immigration. Illegal border crossings have plummeted under President Trump, who reversed Biden-era policies such as catch and release and mass parole. Diving Deeper: Newly revised Census Bureau data has shed light on the sheer scale of immigration under former President Joe Biden. As Jason Richwine writes in his March 14, 2025, op-ed for the Center for Immigration Studies, the agency initially reported net international migration for 2022 and 2023 at a combined 2 million, only to later correct the figure to a staggering 4 million. The trend continued in 2024, with an additional 2.8 million immigrants entering the country. "This is more than double the number in any single year this century prior to Biden's taking office," Richwine points out. The January release of the Census Bureau's Current Population Survey (CPS) has offered a clearer picture of immigration's impact on the nation. Richwine highlights the findings of a new report by Steven Camarota and Karen Zeigler, which confirms that the foreign-born population in the U.S. has reached a record-breaking 53.3 million, up from 45 million four years ago. "The foreign-born share of the population now stands at 15.8 percent," Richwine notes, "which eclipses the highs of the Great Wave at the turn of the 20th century." This surge has accelerated decades ahead of prior projections, as the Census Bureau previously estimated that the U.S. would not reach this level of foreign-born population until 2042. A major driver of this increase was illegal immigration. "Camarota and Zeigler estimate that nearly two-thirds of the increase in the foreign-born population over the last four years was due to illegal immigration," Richwine explains. However, under President Trump, illegal border crossings have dropped dramatically. Richwine attributes this to Trump's swift action in reversing Biden's immigration policies, stating that "Trump reversed the Biden policies of catch and release and mass parole, secured better cooperation from Mexico, and empowered interior enforcement."You won't be surprised to learn that the organization funding the lawfare operation against Trump, trying to block him from deporting alien invaders, is funded by George Soros. Below, someone asked the Fort Myers, FL, city council to authorize police cooperation with ICE in situations where they've arrested a criminal for a specific crime and then discover he's also an illegal alien. He may have mentioned that Fort Myers risks all federal funding for refusing to talk to ICE at all. The city council members responded by crying.

You cut off their welfare, you cut off their schooling, you refuse readmittance when they go to visit their old country, you deport criminals at the end of their sentence, fine the employers outta business that rely on illegals, and so on.

Do you know actually that even legal immigrants can be deported or their sponsors held financially responsible if they become burdens on the state via welfare?

- 30 day grace period to report for deportation. Can take only the clothes on their backs, nothing else. - fine and imprison any employer caught employing illegals. Fine and imprison any group or individual harboring illegals. - establish new immigration courts to expedite any deportations that require a hearing. (Most will not.) - any illegal caught after 30 days is sentenced to 5 years hard labor on the border. - everyone deported, voluntary or not, gets chipped and DNA fingerprinted. Shove them across the border with Mexico, regardless of their country of origin. - anyone chipped is forever barred from entering the US. If caught, the penalty is public hanging.

Trump's border czar Tom Homan on Monday doubled down on the decision to defy a court order that barred the deportation of alleged Venezuelan gang members.
"We are going to make this country safe again ... I'm proud to be a part of this administration. We are not stopping. I don't care what the judges think. I don't care what the Left thinks. We're coming," he added. Asked what was coming next in the administration's deportation efforts, Homan said: "Another flight. Another flight every day." Jail him for contempt of court and see whether he will still do this shit for the Felon. HE doesn't have "presidential immunity." who would arrest him? Officers of the Executive branch? They all work for the orange shit-gibbon. since laws dont matter have local cops do it, and then lock him up in an undisclosed prison. if the administration wants to violate the constitution no reason the judge shouldnt also. He really should care. There will probably come a time where he is before a judge, with a "left" leaning jury that will decide his fate. Don't be too arrogant, dumb dumb.

One of the more interesting things that has come out recently is just how tight and incestuous the left's inner party really is. ----------- I truly believe we're going to find that in the *best* run programs 20% of every Federal dollar goes to someone/something NOT mentioned on the "Payee" line, and that on the *worst* run programs 80% or more of every Federal dollar goes to someone/something NOT mentioned on the "Payee" line. Its all fun and games to throw around "Matrix" lines, but our Federal government for the last 4 decades or more has been largely an illusion.

In a rare clash between the executive and judiciary, Chief Justice John Roberts dismissed calls for impeaching federal judges after President Donald Trump urged the removal of a judge who ruled against his deportation policies.Roberts said in a statement, "For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose."

The lawsuit centers on executive actions directing federal agencies to terminate “equity-related” contracts and grants. Several groups immediately challenged these orders, including the city of Baltimore and the National Association of Diversity Officers in Higher Education. They claimed the orders violated free speech rights. A Biden-appointed judge initially agreed, issuing a nationwide injunction to block the orders. But on Friday, a three-judge panel from the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals lifted that injunction.

After watching that Fort Myers video, I'm totally on board with revoking the 19th Amendment.
Yeah I get that gut reaction as well. But the problem here isn't so much women voting as men not stepping up to be leaders and guides. Women's symapthy and compassion, your sense of social responsibility and need for organization and order is critical to civilizing men. But men have to guide and shape that in rational ways in order to build that civilization. Women have excessively influenced our culture to the cost of reason and progress. And that only happened because we men with our natural tendency to be lazy and averse to upsetting women just let it happen. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at March 18, 2025 02:46 PM (2VST1) 207

A new book about the presidential campaign of former Vice President Kamala Harris reports that her campaign demanded she be seated only in chairs that “met certain specifications.”
An excerpt from “FIGHT: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House,” by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes, published in The Hill, detailed the strict seating arrangements. “Her team required that she be provided a chair that met certain specifications: ‘Leg height no less than 15 inches; floor to top of seat height no less than 18.9 inches; arms on chairs may not be very high, arms must fall at a natural height; chairs must be firm,” according to the book excerpt. The mandated chair specifications came following her first media interview after taking over the top of the Democratic ticket roughly 40 days before.

Let's get real:
First: "The foreign-born population has hit a record 53.3 million, up from 45 million four years ago" That means Biden let in 8.3 million immigrants. Next: "ICE arrests since Trump took office include: 14,111 convicted criminals 9,980 pending charges 8,718 on immigration violations" --> 14,111 + 9,980 + 8,718 = 32,809 = .03 million immigrants. .03 / 8.3 = 0.0036%. 100% - 0.0036% = 99.9964% of Biden's Invasion is stiill here. The Left is totally shifting the Overton Window back to where it was. They are absolutely freaking out over the tiniest gesture at beginning the first step of starting to reverse the mass-invasion of thr last four years. Trump hasn't yet done anything, really. And yet it is already considered far too much. We have a looooonnnngggg way to go. And I don't think Trump can put a dent in it, frankly. Posted by: zombie at March 18, 2025 02:50 PM (pMi6S) 232

Are there any illegal hotties about 18 to 20 that need a place to stay?
Most of the illegals are poor youngish men. The GOPe types want them for their cheap labor, and the AWFL like the idea of more young men to have fun with - though in practice a 5 ft Guatemalan that doesn't speak English or Spanish is not what they are wanting. You could make a decent argument that the only immigrants we should allow would be young, unattached women, as it would help to raise the native birth rate. Though only if you make it so neither they, nor children they have without an American father, could ever collect welfare Posted by: 18-1 at March 18, 2025 02:51 PM (t0Rmr) 236

I still think someone could form a faux organization against deportations or against whatever else Trump is trying to do;
and hire lawyers to come through all the lawfare pleadings offered thus far; and coordinate with White House staff to file an opposition pleading immediately on the heels of Trump's next Exec Order; Only file it with a conservative judge, whose denial of the requested relief becomes res judicata for that particular EO in all other courts. Wouldn't stop the radical judge from enjoining Trump out the wazoo, but gives Trump extra ammo for ignoring it. Good luck to Roberts and all the Trump critics arguing THIS judge is just a straight shooter but THAT judge over THERE is a rightwing fanatic!

I refuse to hire any firm that uses illegals and you can tell who does.
I don't know which those are, and it's illegal to ask. However, I also don't hire a lot of firms. Second, I refuse to buy food brands that perpetually use illegals. I don't know which those are, and it's illegal to ask. When I see reports in the media about a company that does this, I avoid them. Third, I support local officials that a) have instituted an limit on the number of unrelated individuals living in houses or apartments, etc. Same I have personally refused to help a former student to stop them from being deported because they did identity theft, fled from police, and disobeyed traffic laws to do so. Not a situation I've ever confronted. None of those things, while satisfying, are going to deport 50M illegals. You may feel virtuous doing them, but that's not going to solve the problem.

From Brave AI:
Several sources suggest that Hitler had genital abnormalities, including hypospadias and an undescended testicle. Historians Jonathan Mayo and Emma Craigie, in their book "Hitler’s Last Day: Minute by Minute," claim that Hitler had hypospadias, a condition where the urethra opens on the underside of the penis rather than at the tip, and an undescended testicle. There were rumors that he didn't have sex because of this, even with Eva Braun. But a lot of this was chalked up to Britsh propaganda, including suggesting Hitler was a hermaphrodite or something.

They had created a nice peaceful society on that island based on teamwork. Something similar happened in Survival TV series. Men were living large, the female 'tribe' wasn't due to struggles over who got to be queen B. I would argue rather that men often advance society so as to get women's favors but not that women civilize men per se. Hierarchy struggles in males manifest themselves as fight to determine head cheese and then once that is done, settle down to do what is needed. Posted by: whig at March 18, 2025 02:54 PM (ctrM5) 255

Not enough deportations
I've said it before, and I'll say it again; there is no way in hell we're going to deport tens of millions of illegals. They're here, and they're staying. Sure, we'll get rid of the most egregious criminals, but that's about it. Posted by: Archimedes at March 18, 2025 02:18 PM (xCA6C) Most self deport when the climate gets a little cloudy on this side. Start going after the people employing illegals and the tide will recede even faster. This happened in Trumps first term as well, and historically whenever the country gets recessions.

The landmines story is not surprising. Let's be honest. Princess Di was dumber than a box of rocks. She was loved because in a country full of ugly people, she was a solid Applebee's 8. But landmines are a defensive weapon. Removing them only emboldens an enemy determined to launch a ground attack.

anyway we have to do mass deportations. I think it's already started. the impact here is being felt, and it's not a lack of criminals, it's whole restaurant staffs, gone overnight.

I know it's happening bc both boys easily got summer f and b jobs already! and just myself, going out to eat the places with open kitchens suddenly don't have fully-mestizo back of house! that said, I hope some of them come back legally. a lot were excellent cooks!

Van Halen's standard performance contract contained a provision calling for them to be provided backstage with a bowl of M&Ms from which all the brown candies had been removed.

You might just try to explain why you believe, using evidence and reason, why the status quo hasn't changed. Instead, you go immediately to invective when challenged. That is a hack that is poorly received by others because you berate others rather than up your game to persuade me of the correctness of your original statement. Interesting analysis. I give my opinion on a topic, and you respond with "bullshit!", yet somehow I'm the one berating others and using invective. Posted by: Archimedes at March 18, 2025 03:13 PM (xCA6C) 355

The SS and SA were probably filled with homos, and in particular the Einsatzgruppen, recruited from prison where sexual deviants were regularly sent. Western civilization was lucky to have the Royal Navy, manned by men with hearts of oak.
Posted by: bill in arkansas, not gonna comply with nuttin, waiting for the 0300 knock on the door at March 18, 2025 03:05 PM (gm9Sb) --- I read that before Long Knives, the Nazis used homos as the theory was they were more antisocial and hated their existing society more, along with this were less burdened with sympathy. I laugh when I read people trying to sell the Nazis as "traditionalists". Just because they weren't International Marxists, doesn't mean they wanted Mom and Pop Germany. It's amazing how many people can just elide by my telling them that the Nazis were telling Christian churches to substitute the "Unser Fuhrer" for the "Unser Vater" (Out Father).

The case of the deported professor:
“I think if you listen to one of his sermons you would know what I mean. He is a religious, spiritual person, as I said, he has very high value. His teachings are about spirituality and morality,” she added about the sheikh, who was killed last September in an Israeli airstrike on his bunker in the Beirut suburbs. Asked if she supported Nasrallah “in any way,” Alawieh initially denied doing so but later appeared to acknowledge that she supported and admired him “from a religious perspective.” https://tinyurl.com/jwpu8ast (Politico via Yahoo) -- -- I like how they play on Western ignorance by pretending there's a distinct difference between the political & religious in Islam. Everybody just has to pretend that Lebanon is just like America and everybody there lives by Jeffersonian ideals of separation of church and state. Give me a break.

351 Self deportation as a result of employer crackdowns will get rid of a lot of IAs. And that old story of doing the jobs Americans won't will not fly. Temporary agencies in this area advertise $17 to $20 an hour to start in poultry plants and you will get more if hired by the company. Not bad bucks in a low COLA area.

Frequently Asked Questions about JFK Assassination Records
After President Trump’s Executive Order, why aren’t all JFK assassination-related records publicly available yet? What is an "assassination-related" record? How will I learn about newly released records? Why aren’t all of the records online? How will I learn about newly digitized records? What do you know about the "backyard photographs"? Can I see the artifacts? Can I access the autopsy report? Are the images in the Collection public domain or under copyright? Where is the Zapruder film? Can I get a copy of it? I am interested in acquiring copies of some of the records in the John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection. What is the process to do so? Can I view President Kennedy’s clothing? Can I view Mrs. Kennedy’s pink suit? Who is hotter Jaqueline or Melania? What happened to the pieces of JFK's skull and brains Mrs. Kennedy retrieved from the trunk deck lid? How could Jack Ruby get access to Lee Oswald with hundreds of LEO's in place. Can a bullet just fall out of a dead mans head onto a gurney fully intact? Have you compared notes with Kramer and Newan's 'Magic Loogie' theory? Posted by: I'm Gumby Dmn It! at March 18, 2025 03:20 PM (37aB+) 396

I laugh when I read people trying to sell the Nazis as "traditionalists". Just because they weren't International Marxists, doesn't mean they wanted Mom and Pop Germany.
When the NAZIs came to power in Germany there was a debate in the Soviet Union as to whether they were the communists that Marx had predicted - remember Marx didn't predict communists coming to power in a backward like Russia...but in an advanced country like Germany. And Mussolini was clearly a socialist. He just disagreed with the international socialists as to whether one could support socialism in one country...

Posted by: oopsie . . . too late at March 18, 2025 06:31 PM (kvDvI) Trump Looks to Remove Hunter Biden's Secret Service ProtectionTrump knows that any Democrat would do this to himself and his family. For crying out loud, Biden refused him Secret Service protection for as long as he could when Trump was the frontrunning candidate for president. And then he took protection away from Trump to task it with protecting Jill Biden who, we can now say, is not a doctor at all. Trump pointed out that Hunter is currently in South Africa -- a nation now on the US watch list due to its racist oppression of its white minority. What's he doing there? I can only assume he's doing what he's done all his adult life, attempting to sell political influence to a scumbag foreign country. Trump also wants to cancel Ashley Biden's protective detail.![]() Secret Service protection was an outrageous misuse of taxpayer money and confirmed he was pulling the plug. "Hunter Biden has had Secret Service protection for an extended period of time, all paid for by the United States taxpayer," Trump wrote. "There are as many as 18 people on this detail, which is ridiculous!" He then announced: "Effective immediately, Hunter Biden will no longer receive Secret Service protection." Trump also revealed that Ashley Biden had a taxpayer-funded security detail of 13 agents, which he deemed excessive. "Likewise, Ashley Biden, who has 13 agents, will be taken off the list," he stated. The decision comes amid mounting scrutiny over Hunter Biden's continued Secret Service protection despite not holding any official government role. Reports surfaced last week that he had been staying in a luxury $500-a-night villa in Cape Town, South Africa, while flanked by federal security--just as he skipped a scheduled court deposition. Trump made it clear that the American people should not be footing the bill for Hunter's personal travel. Trump has long pushed to limit extended Secret Service protection for non-government figures, previously revoking security for former officials such as Mike Pompeo and John Bolton. His latest move reinforces his commitment to cutting unnecessary federal spending, especially when it involves high-profile figures like Hunter Biden.Happy Tuesday, everybody. I hope that you're all having a great days and that if you're in a storm-stricken area, I hope they've got the power back on and your basements aren't overly-flooded.

Chief Justice Roberts offers a rare response directly to President Trump’s call for impeachment of judges who are trying to usurp Article II powers by judicial fiat;
“ For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision,” Roberts said in a statement. “The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.” To which I offer this response. Get up off your ass, gimp, and get your Bob’s Big Boy head to work. The lower courts are trampling the constitution by using powers they do not possess, and have never possessed.

Usually what happens is the subsequent president will allow an extended period of SS security on government officials. For, example, Chelsea Clinton got an additional 6 months. The Bush sisters got an extension of an undisclosed period, but you have to take the world events into consideration on that one (9/11 and all that). Dick Cheney as VP got an additional six months as is standard. Former Presidents get 10 years extension.
However, it's normal for children of presidents to have their SS cut off upon their parent leaving office, with the outside chance of a small 6 month extension if world events deem it. Posted by: Orson at March 18, 2025 01:23 PM (dIske) 102

There is a huge risk to impeachments, since a simple majority can convict and remove a judge. Once the Senate gets a taste of blood, they may decide to clean house, and CJRoberts may not be immune

379 why do we have a CJ who is not a leader in any way Posted by: Black Orchid at March 18, 2025 01:03 PM (Pv3Rg) I'm not a lawyer and I didn't stay at Holiday Inn but... My take on Roberts is that he is a cockeyed elitist. Meaning he believes the Supreme Court should handle big, serious cases that can change federal laws and even federal government and have an effect on the entire country. The "small ball" stuff gets handled by lower courts. To Roberts, who sees this is rampant stupidity, these judges getting uppity is small shit. It's blatantly unconstitutional and any appellate court in the system will slap it down. He has faith in the system to self correct that which is in need of correction. If it gets far enough out of hand that it lands on his desk, he will address it as per the constitution, but he thinks it shouldn't get to his desk. Because the Supreme Court is above this garbage.

Iran and Chuck Schumer Are About to Be Destroyed In Schumer's case, he’s on the wrong side of the Democrats' generational divide: Old Dems support Israel; young Dems do not. Last year, 77% of Democrats older than 65 supported Biden’s Israel policy. Just 16% disapproved. But amongst younger liberals, the numbers are reversed: 69% opposed Biden’s Israel policy; only 24% approved. But more critically, most of today’s Democrats are anti-Israel. In 2020, 67% of Democrats supported Israel. By 2022, it was 63%. In 2024, it was 47%. Today, it’s down to 33%. In just five years, Democratic support for Israel has been cut in half! And here comes Chuck Schumer, who is releasing (today!) his new book, “Antisemitism in America: A Warning.” The sun has set on Schumer’s day. He’ll probably be able to stave off the radicals, at least over the short term, but once your base concludes that it’s more advantageous to attack you than cooperate with you, the jig is up. It’s not a sustainable situation....His ship is sinking. https://is.gd/xmbQJO Posted by: Archimedes at March 18, 2025 01:29 PM (xCA6C) 138

She refused to believe that most men thought the same as me. I assured her they did.

Personal experience. The best and longest lasting canned food is kept cool or cold (never frozen). 10 year old items eaten with no problems. If it was stored warm, it may be good, but it will go bad faster and have a strong metallic flavor, even plastic lined modern cans. Canned chili and meats tend to have the most off-putting metallic taste.

Impeachment of judges is an ineffective waste of time. If the GOP was serious about this (and it's not), it would use the budget to defund the judiciary in large part: no staff or clerks, no junkets, no Westlaw (relearn to Sheperdize judges), no new courthouses, no COLA or other pay adjustments. It could make life absolutely miserable for judges. The executive could augment by making no new appointments of magistrate judges or district court nominations to increase the workload.
That all can be done without any substantive revisions of the law, like restricting jurisdiction to hear certain kinds of cases, requiring three-judge panels for certain kinds of cases, or making certain kinds of appeals direct to the supreme court with mandatory jurisdiction - all of which are good ideas in their own right. If the GOP wanted, it could bring the judiciary to heel in ways that are unreviewable and require only a simple majority.

215 SCOTUS told Biden he couldn’t relieve student debt. He did it anyway. I don’t recall Roberts having anything to say about that.
Posted by: Duke Lowell This. Among other silences are things like Obama criticizing Scotus to its face during a SOTU, etc., there are no Obama judges, Schumer's threats to the safety of Scotus justices, etc. and Roberts saying nothing. Add in his silence over fake shampeachment sequel of a no longer in office Trump. If you notice, Roberts always punches to his right, never his left. He is a cowardly twat that bravely speaks up to people that actually respect the rule of law on the right and placates those to his left by ignoring their calls to violence, eliminating the rule of law, packing the courts, etc. Supposedly, Roberts was yelling in fear about mobs during the decision of Texas v. PA (Trump election fraud case). He is a coward and a passive aggressive mediocre justice appointed far about his ability and character. Posted by: whig at March 18, 2025 01:50 PM (ctrM5) 265

It was to condemn Jan 6. Fuck these people.

Roberts has allowed the courts to go after Trump on a personal basis, and then when president, he has allowed the eroding of Executive power. Most of that has been done through indecision, that is, by letting the lower courts play these games without any retribution or oversight. He has either turned back and meaningful appeal or manufactured curious decisions either outside the legal boundaries or in obfuscation of them.
I think most interested citizens have seen enough. He has some set of balls to come out with that statement.

Appeal is NOT the remedy. This isn't a botched ruling or an arcane jurisprudence thing that needs further scrutiny or more maturity. It is a government official blatantly overstepping the bounds of his authority.
Yeah, this was where I ended up after Roberts' stupid statement. This is a bunch of lower courts in the District of Lower Turdsville deciding they don't just have Judicial Review; they have the power of Executive Review; they have to sign off on anything that President Trump wants to do.

Immerse an egg into a deep bowl of water.
If it sinks to the bottom it is deemed fresh If it floats mid level it is still edible If it floats to the top feed it to a liberal If they've stayed in a consistently cold fridge the entire time, what has happened with the floating eggs is that the moisture has evaporated out of them through the shell. Because store-bought eggs have the ... uh... airtight coating washed off of them along with any chicken crap. Unwashed eggs from your own (or your neighbor's) chickens may not do this. Though you should probably wash them before you use them. Because chicken crap. If you really want to, you can lightly coat the store-bought washed eggs in food grade mineral oil to keep them from evaporating in the shell. ... and really, you don't need to immerse them in water to figure out that they've evaporated. You can feel the lop-sidedness in their weight just holding them in your hand. Posted by: FeatherBlade at March 18, 2025 02:06 PM (LsB7C) 352

Hunter is quite the piece of work. Also, quite a piece of crap.
Age 54 and unemployed. He rents a home in Venice Beach in 2021 for $25K a month, leaves in the middle of the night, and according to the landlord, leaves the home trashed and owing $300K in back rent. Then rents a home in Malibu for $15,800K a month with SS across the street rental costing taxpayers $16K a month. That house although standing, Biden says they can't stay in due to fires. Then drops case in court by claiming he is broke and then goes to S. Africa. All of the above are crack addict moves in an entitled brain. Posted by: Cheri at March 18, 2025 02:20 PM (oiNtH) 393

We should consider making a deal with Israel - munitions for a base in Gaza. We already know that there are bunkers underground, so that will save on construction costs of a combined air/sea/ground base complex.

Boas is a masculine name of Hebrew origin. Symbolizing strength and speed, this stand-out moniker means “swift” and “in him is strength.” Boas is a prominent figure in the Torah's Book of Ruth, so if you're looking for a name that has religious significance, this most certainly fits the bill.

Trump continues to flood,the zone so the Left doesn't know what to protest. DOGE, flying gang members out of the country, firing Federal workers, attacking the Houthis, talking to Putin, releasing the JFK docs....did I forget anything?

The future judge was shown compromising pictures including, but not limited to, a night with Rory at the nearby Interstate Inn. The judge agreed to do the will of those appointing him.

Posted by: Dr Spank at March 18, 2025 12:23 PM (NNMcJ) == Impeachment is a political response to a process where those involved no longer have faith in the ability of certain parties to act within their normal bounds. The lower judge actions has nothing to do with law. It has to do with politics, as such impeachment is a perfectly appropriate way to deal with the dispute. Now there are not votes to make that happen yet. But I think the chances for the US Court of Appeals to be dissolved, while unlikely, increases by the day, as a message to all the rest. Stay in your lane. Roberts needs to get control of the situation, otherwise, TJM might just get his wish.

Islam says that everyone who doesn't follow Islam is an infidel. Infidels must be killed, enslaved or converted. You could pay the Jizyah in the Ottoman Empire. This is what the believe and if they deny it they're engaging in taqqiyah which is lying to an infidel to further or protect Islam.

Here is the answer to this fake judge's question about his "powers" on ordering flight paths:
Sean Davis @seanmdav The Supreme Court explicitly ruled in the 1948 Ludecke v. Watkins case that Alien Enemy Act removals by the president are non-justiciable. Here are some key excerpts from the ruling, lest anyone think the SCOTUS opinion was in any way unclear: “The Alien Enemy Act precludes judicial review of the removal order.” That line is literally the first sentence of the SCOTUS holding. “The very nature of the President's power to order the removal of all enemy aliens rejects the notion that courts may pass judgment upon the exercise of his discretion.” “[E]very judge before whom the question has since come has held that the statute barred judicial review.” “A war power of the President not subject to judicial review is not transmuted into a judicially reviewable action because the President chooses to have that power exercised within narrower limits than Congress authorized.” “These are matters of political judgment for which judges have neither technical competence nor official responsibility.” Posted by: Jay in PA at March 18, 2025 12:28 PM (i7Q7S) 126

Bibi and the government bent to pressure to get hostages back, and they did just that. One can understand the families putting pressure on for a cease fire, but one can't understand pressure from the Israeli and American left who want Hamas to survive for some reason.
Finish Hamas off and hope you can free some hostages in some kind of lightning raid. This will continue as long as Hamas holds one hostage. Only if they are completely gone can something else take its place. Posted by: Lex at March 18, 2025 12:28 PM (l5xX+) 130

The myth of the "moderate" Muslim. Had this one slapped in my face about 10 years ago - used to work with a muslim man who seemed normal enough, until somehow came up talking about how apostates are killed in Islam. Went from denying that was what the Koran said, to admitted it and saying that the US should mind its own business about countries that follow that rule because they are following their own laws.
Honestly disturbed the shit out of me - if this is what are willing to say to people openly, what are you willing to support even if you don't get your own hands dirty. Posted by: Ryan Frank - Pew released a poll ten or so years ago. The percent of Muslims that believe non-believers should be killed *starts* at 50% and goes up. Essentially no practicing (meaning praying) Muslims hold any type of quote "moderate" beliefs. It's similar to a practicing Democrat being a Christian.

Impeachment is a political response to a process where those involved no longer have faith in the ability of certain parties to act within their normal bounds.
In (almost?) every case, a federal judge who should have not presided over an issue due to conflicts of interest has made rulings unsupported by law and placed undue burdens upon the proper functioning of the Executive.

Over 400 killed by Israel in Gaza. More Genocide with western complicity.
Horrific. Israel broke the ceasefire. It was Israel's government that failed to uphold the agreement when it didn't complete the promised withdrawal of IDF forces from the Gaza Strip in recent weeks, particularly from the Philadelphi route along the Gaza-Egypt border. Israel never really entered the 2nd phase of negotiations. They stopped humanitarian aid for 16 days and just sent more than 200 planes to murder Gazans. So here we are, "genocide Donald" and if you demonstrate you will be arrested and possibly kicked out of the country Netanyahu getting to the task of removing 2 million from Gaza asap. He’ll move fast on ethnic cleansing so it’s finished before Traitor is out of office in 2028. He knows he won’t get any better supporter than Traitor so the crime has to be executed quickly. Belgium and Malta condemn attacks; Switzerland calls for ceasefire to resume; Egypt calls this a "flagrant violation". Netanyahu is also on trial for corruption. On Tuesday, a court approved Netanyahu’s request not to appear at a hearing on Tuesday “due to the renewal of the war” 🤔 Posted by: Intercepted DU Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at March 18, 2025 12:34 PM (JCZqz) 162

In 1934 Congress decided it was too busy to continue writing those rules, and so gave the job to the Supreme Court, which can write any rule it wants, UNLESS Congress enacts legislation to deny or change said rule... Just the opposite of Congresses job before. Roberts just amended those rules LAST YEAR. All of these rulings are under Rules Roberts put out there, and the ONLY way to take that authority away, is to amend said rules.... which he is not going to do... as it would take power AWAY from the Courts that he helped UnConstitutionally usurp.

One of the key is that the dissenting justices did not even change their opinion to deal with Robert's last minute treachery.

The vast majority of what's being covered and ordered is simply not happening. The administration is doing either malicious compliance, outright not complying, or getting appeals processes started as soon as possible so they don't have any orders to comply with while the appeals process plays out. Most of the legal maneuverings right now amount to little more than noise without much affect on admin actions.

At some point, Trump will take the position that the lower federal courts are NOT co-equal with the executive. Only the Supreme Court is. The other federal courts are all Congress-created and can piss up a rope.
Most people don't know this, but the ONLY court set up by the Constitution is the Supreme Court. The other lower courts were set up later by Congress.

Posted by: Romeo13 ------- Roberts is the supervisor aka rides the DC Circuit. As supervisor, he can immediately put a stay on the lower judge's TRO and subsequently refer the action to Scotus. From previous published opinions, we know four justices are already wanting to curb these ridiculous TROs and nationwide injunctions by district judges and all it takes is Roberts to put on his big boy panties and sign on. ACB will probably do so if he does. Roberts is resisting because a lot of those DC asshole judges are friends and very possibly would hurt the business interests of his wife who is legal headhunter for the elite DC law establishment. He is a fcking coward, a manipulative Chief Justice, and unimpressive legal mind. BTW, the reason Congress abdicated the rules of procedure is that much of it is technical and a lot relies on constitutional decisions that Congress cannot legally address via statute.

TJM, I like your optimism on this but I can't help remembering that Trump was found guilty of sexual assault and ordered to pay obvious liar Carroll millions. Or found guilty of 37 felonies for a bookkeeping error and told to put up 450 million to appeal. Why were these obvious miscarriages of Justice not overturned by appellate courts? There were so many egregious errors during trial. The same with the J6 trials. The FACE act trials. These judges are so consumed with their personal bias that they make these rulings and then NOTHING is done. Trump had to pardon the J6ers for,TJM to get Justice.

Posted by: Black Orchid at March 18, 2025 01:03 PM (Pv3Rg) I'm not a lawyer and I didn't stay at Holiday Inn but... My take on Roberts is that he is a cockeyed elitist. Meaning he believes the Supreme Court should handle big, serious cases that can change federal laws and even federal government and have an effect on the entire country. The "small ball" stuff gets handled by lower courts. To Roberts, who sees this is rampant stupidity, these judges getting uppity is small shit. It's blatantly unconstitutional and any appellate court in the system will slap it down. He has faith in the system to self correct that which is in need of correction. If it gets far enough out of hand that it lands on his desk, he will address it as per the constitution, but he thinks it shouldn't get to his desk. Because the Supreme Court is above this garbage.

Posted by: Madame Mayhem I disagree having read his opinions, followed his pronouncements in the media, etc. He is a coward who only punches right in those opinions and pronouncements and his intellect is much less than many of his fellow justices on the right. I would rate Alito and Thomas at the top via experience and legal acumen. Gorsuch is getting there albeit idiosyncratic on some issues but far better than his mentor Kennedy. Kavanaugh is a smarter insider judge as he had to hone his craft on a hostile DC circuit far longer than Robert's brief stay there. ACB and Roberts are the ones with scant judicial and legal experience and for that reason the most amenable to keeping to whatever appears to be the winning side socially rather than legally. Roberts is a far inferior CJ than Rehnquist, Hughes, Taft, or Marshall. He belongs at the bottom of the CJ list even below Warren who was competent.

Posted by: Kurtz at March 18, 2025 03:28 PM (k+19P) The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition![]() God is the Greatest, Death to America, Death to Israel, Curse be upon the Jews, Victory to Islam They sound nice. They are a garden variety terrorist group, but with a twist. They are closely aligned with Iran, and receive a huge amount of aid from that paragon of international cooperation. Primarily weapons, which is why this group of 7th century maniacs can threaten shipping at the Red Sea choke point south of the Suez Canal, and shoot missiles at Saudi Arabia. If it weren't for that twist of geography, the Houthis would be scrabbling in the dust like everyone else in Yemen, and we would never have heard of them. President Trump's statement The Houthi attack on American vessels will not be tolerated. We will use overwhelming lethal force until we have achieved our objective. The Houthis have choked off shipping in one of the most important Waterways of the World, grinding vast swaths of Global Commerce to a halt, and attacking the core principle of Freedom of Navigation upon which International Trade and Commerce depends. Our brave Warfighters are right now carrying out aerial attacks on the terrorists' bases, leaders, and missile defenses to protect American shipping, air, and naval assets, and to restore Navigational Freedom. No terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the Waterways of the World. Quite a change from the feckless triangulation of the Biden/Obama junta! And completely justified simply because they took shots at our Navy ships. That alone should be reason to destroy their ability to conduct offensive warfare. But the vast majority of the commercial ships threatened by the Houthi terrorists are not involved in American trade. Much of our shipping is across the Pacific. So why is there not a commanding presence of European navies (stop laughing!) and perhaps the Indian Navy and Australian Navy and Japanese Navy and others busily pounding the Houthi military infrastructure into dust? Hell... what about the Saudis, who love to spend their petrodollars on high-tech weaponry, but are conspicuously absent, or on the losing end of the battle when it comes to using those toys! Yeah, the Houthis have smacked the Saudis around. President Trump ran on a platform of no new wars, and a renewed focus on America. He is pursuing that platform with vigor, so why are we once again front-and-center in a fight that, while it does involve us, is best conducted by others? Of course the damage being done to the Houthis is also hurting Iran, and that is an unalloyed good thing. Iran is in difficult economic straits, with inflation running at a reported 50%, demonstrations across the country, a depreciating currency, and all of their proxies getting the snot knocked out of them! Will Iran be able to resupply them with new weapons and more cash? Probably not, especially since they are very worried about an Israeli strike on their nuclear facilities, and must rebuild their destroyed air defenses. If the long game is the destruction of the current regime in Iran, then the attacks on the Houthis make more sense. But... Europe and others still need to be involved, so at a minimum, they begin to understand that the Pax Americana that has allowed them to spend their money on themselves rather than a common defense has closed up shop.

"No new wars" doesn't really apply to a preexisting war, and it certainly does not apply to an important sea lane. Perhaps at some future point we will have annexed Canada (and somehow deprogrammed the libtards living there) and turned North America into an impregnable, self-sufficient fortress, but until then we need to police the seas as the British did 150 years ago during their period of "splendid isolation".

Willowed:
Saw "The Electric State"..now streaming on Netflix. I didn't hate it. It's (a low bar I know) better than anything Marvel or Disney have put out lately, so maybe a B-B-. But, it illustrates two writing problems in modern movies. 1) Any white male can't be a hero who actually affects the outcome or tells the female character anything or isn't much more than a big blowhard. Remember Kurt Russell's character in "Big Trouble in Little China" how funny it was that you thought he'd be the big hero but he wound up doing almost nothing in the movie. Yeah...all that all the time. They totally wasted Chris Pratt by basically having him do nothing but follow the Bobby Brown character around. They gave him one really funny line and that's about it. Which leads us to 2. 2) The Girl Boss appears to be dead but it's now been replaced by the Snarky, Unpleasant Know-it-All as the main character. And Bobby Brown isn't a good enough actress to carry a movie on her shoulders. She gives good happy face and sad face and that's about it. There's nothing compelling about an older guy following around some young woman to no real effect. An okay watch. Check it out if you wish.

11 Indeed, in an ideal situation this would work, though as others have noted, our NATO "allies" have jokes as far as navies go. Any random frigate they would contribute would probably cost more to us in terms of having to refuel and resupply it than it would add to any task force. And that assumes our "allies" have ships with sufficient air defenses to not be sitting targets. IIRC a Danish ship had to flee the area because it was easily overwhelmed by Houthi drones during one of Brandon's ill-fated "Operation Prosperity Guardian" actions in the Red Sea.
There are navies that could contribute, like the Indians, but they love acting like an independent geopolitical power, so they certainly wouldn't let their vessels serve under our command, and we could not trust them to have the same strategic objectives we do (they'd probably try to do commercial deals with the Houthis as they've tried with the Taliban). Now a situation where we only guarantee protection to US ships or to ships of countries that make a useful contribution could be fine. Degrade the Houthis to a point and then set up a convoy system for ships we care about. The rest can fend for themselves against Houthi pirates.

Historically since the Barbary pirates exacted tribute and attacked our ships, we have had a blue water navy roaming the world and protecting US interests.
While I think we should end our relationship with NATO and downsize our army plus convert most of it to reserves/guard, a strong Navy, strong Air Force, and the new Space whatever, are needed to project power to places. These are technical services that simply do not ramp up when US defense needs them right now. Building ships, modern planes/drones, and perhaps in the near future, Rods from God and other space weapons, missiles, etc. have to be done well prior to any conflict. We, ourselves, do not face any risk of military invasion necessitating a large standing active army, nor can we afford it any longer. IMHO, thus we have to put our bucks into our buffers like the Navy, Air Force, and Space Force rather than have a big standing army to project power abroad.

Under *biden there was a clusterfucked attempt to pull together a coalition to combat the Houthi attacks in the Red Sea. It fractured due to differences in ROE, leadership, goals, etc.
The USN stood up Operation Prosperity Guardian which was a US standalone op. The EU stood up Operation Aspides under their own leadership. The EU one is probably defunct now. Neither was able to stop Houthi attacks because neither operation was geared towards hitting the Houthi's at their base(s) of operations... until it was almost too late. They were more or less sailing around, shooting down Houthi missiles and drones targeting commercial shipping or their own warships. I think it was May last year that the US started to strike at the Houthi's at their bases. There's a story out there about one of the Navy's DDG's (USS Carney) coming under an unrelenting attack from Houthi drones and ASBM's. It's a congested area and there's not much room for mistakes.

Posted by: whig at March 18, 2025 11:20 AM (ctrM5) I am not suggesting that we become isolationist and withdraw from the world. We obviously need force projection, and we should continue to fund it and maintain it. In addition, we DO need a fairly large standing army because our likely adversary has a big one. But the time has passed when America should police the world without compensation, without assistance, and without appreciation. If Europe isn't willing to man up, then they can write very large checks for our armed forces to do their dirty work maintaining sea lanes.

Massie is a gadfly and someone no longer to be taken seriously. US Navy was attacked by the Houthi as well as US flagged vessels. So yes, there was a predicate reason to go after the Houthis and destroy their ability to repeat those attacks. It did not come out of nowhere.

Also saw "Black Bag" this weekend.
It's a new Steven Soderbergh movie. I really liked this one but don't go in expecting a lot of violence and action and such. What "Black Bag" really is is a modern variation on an Agatha Christie-style mystery where a spy must figure out who the mole is in his organization and one of the suspects is his wife. BB even has a neat twist on the old "gather all the suspects in a room to determine the guilty party". Great acting, great script, great directing. If it sounds like something you would enjoy, you will. Check it out. Posted by: naturalfake at March 18, 2025 11:34 AM (iJfKG) 128

Rick Steve's Blog, Posted on March 5, 2025 by Cameron Hewitt, 'In the Age of Trump, Are Americans Still Welcome in Europe?' If you’re an American traveling to Europe soon, you may be wondering: As Donald Trump reshapes the USA’s role in the world, are we still welcome abroad?
I’ve been asked this question many times in recent weeks. My short answer: Yes, I really think so. But be prepared for some interesting conversations. ----------------------- How many military bases does the US have in foreign countries? The U.S. military maintains hundreds of installations, both inside the United States and overseas (with at least 128 military bases located outside of its national territory as of July 2024). Wikipedia. They range from "lily pads" to exceeding 400,000 acres. The largest are Camp Humphreys; Thule Air Base; Camp Fuji; Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, and Camp Hansen. (Mybaseguide dot com) "In early 2025, the United States had nearly eighty-four thousand U.S. service members in Europe, according to the United States European Command (EUCOM)."

The hilarity is Brin and his wife saw Dances with Wolves and thought Costner could do justice to Brin's work. There is so much removed from the movie like the women who thought they could be girl bosses and be like Ruth to slay the leaders of army threatening them. Hell the whole Vietnam Super Soldier program, ala Steve Rodgers via technology, is gone. Instead of a misfit survivor trying to survive by lying and thus creating by accident the legend of a reborn US, Costner gives the character the motivation of being hopping mad at the Holnists because they killed his mule. Then Costner gave the movie a happy ending when in the book our 'hero' abandons what he helped create to search out a reborn California. Posted by: Anna Puma at March 18, 2025 11:36 AM (Ocj/H) 137

Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo ========== Sorry CBD, it is insane to consider fighting either China or Russia in a land war with an army. Simply put, we do not have the planes, ships, and logistics any longer to run a huge expeditionary force to somewhere like Korea or Taiwan if the Chinese make a serious play for it nor do we have the forces necessary to engage in defensive war with Russia for the defense of ungrateful Euros.

Sorry CBD, it is insane to consider fighting either China or Russia in a land war with an army. Simply put, we do not have the planes, ships, and logistics any longer to run a huge expeditionary force to somewhere like Korea or Taiwan if the Chinese make a serious play for it nor do we have the forces necessary to engage in defensive war with Russia for the defense of ungrateful Euros.
Posted by: whig at March 18, 2025 11:42 AM (ctrM5) An altercation with China would require a significant army, even if most of the fighting was in the air and sea. As for Russia?

Of course the damage being done to the Houthis is also hurting Iran, and that is an unalloyed good thing. Iran is in difficult economic straits, with inflation running at a reported 50%,
I wonder if Iran is doing the same thing Biden did: There is no inflation, anyone that says so is an infidel Jew-pig!

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the faith: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith.... W. Churchill

The point of war is to inflict enough pain on your enemies to make them abide by your war goals. We want them to stop piracy, they really, really want to practice piracy, both from a financial and religious motive. So you kill them and ruin their country enough that their desire for piracy is less then their fear of the US. And no rebuilding, that ruins the whole idea of war.

Posted by: 18-1 Proportional is a misapplied domestic concept of law enforcement but totally inappropriate when discussing wars.

As a simple calculus, if whatever our cause for war is is not sufficient to destroy our enemy's cities and infrastructure which will include "civilian causalities" it is also not sufficient to send out ground pounders in.

War is a terrible thing that provides decades-long opportunities for grifting and laundering money on both the rah-rah and the oh-no sides and it must be administered accordingly and for as long as possible.
Also use it to pass broad surveillance laws against your citizens and implement new pointless federal agencies that accomplish nothing beyond inconveniencing people and wasting time.

They never left the 7th century. They may have high-tech gear, but their mindset is still trapped in savage butchery, which is all they've ever known.

Yemen used to be the sane and relatively civilized nation in that part of the woods before the Houthis came outta the hills to kick out the existing regime. The Commies ran S. Yemen at the time which was always engaged in low grade warfare with the North. An uneasy reunification occurred after the Wall fell and somewhere in the 2000's, forget when, Yemen slid back into civil war and disunity again with the barbarian Houthi from the hills taking over the North.

The first step in war with the Houthis should be to send B-52s (a battleship would be better if we had an active one) and destroy every port, and its attached city/village, that has been used by pirates.
Then destroy their capital as well - don't leave a single building standing. And for less then $1B, and with no American lives even seriously risked, you'll have won the war. Posted by: 18-1 at March 18, 2025 12:09 PM (t0Rmr) 296

Either in useless wars abroad (English experience with off and on again wars on the continent) applied to the US and spending scarce blood and treasure better used elsewhere. China cannot reach us with a strong Navy, Space, and Air Force and Russia has no inclination to do so. Either one can only attack 'allies' which are going to have to do the work on the ground anyway because we simply ain't got the ability to move huge armies around nor the ability to pay for them. Trip wire forces always seemed to me to be an idiotic notion only appealing to intellectuals and warmongers that we put a token number of troops there to be slaughtered so that we can build support to create a big army to avenge the slaughter.

Included in any discussion about Yemen should mention...The "former" Govt of Yemen was the 1st and ONLY fully communist nation in the Middle East, there are two(or more) revolutionary parties in addition to the "Official Communist Govt", the Houthis are but one. Another is the Clinton(both Bill and later Hillary) as well as Obama, Biden, backed Muslim Brotherhood forces. Clinton/Obama/Biden all stopped the Saudi's and other nations from wiping out the Houthi's when they had the chance and forces to do so...because in their schizophrenic policy programs they were supporting BOTH the Muslim Brotherhood AND Iran, while also quasi supporting the Communists. This even after the Cole bombing.

"Hell... what about the Saudis, who love to spend their petrodollars on high-tech weaponry, but are conspicuously absent, or on the losing end of the battle when it comes to using those toys!"
Back when Neptunus Lex was still alive and blogging, someone who was involved in training foreign pilots talked about his experience in training Saudis. He said that some of them were great, but that many others had gotten their position due to family connections and not because they were qualified. They apparently thought that actual work was beneath them and were terrible pilots, but that the word came down to pass them anyway so as not to cause diplomatic issues.

"Sidney Laufman was born in Cleveland, Ohio and began his education in art at the Cleveland School of Art. He also studied at the Art Institute of Chicago in Chicago and the Art Students League in New York City where he studied with Robert Henri. In 1920, Sidney and his wife moved to Paris, France where for twelve years were neighbors and friends of Henri Matisse and in 1927, they had a dual exhibition. He returned to the United States and settled in Woodstock, New York for the next thirty-four years."

Love, Sidney was a sitcom that aired for two years, 1981-83. Tony Randall played the starring role. He played a poofter, but wasn't one in real life. Swoosie Kurtz co-starred.

More of a house-scape than landscape!
It has a ramshackle, rural, New Mexico look to it. Not disparaging NM, now; I mean this could be anywhere rural where there are not many trees. I guess the low buildings toward the front are garages and sheds, and the main buildings in back are apartment blocks.

An AI summary of his work...
Based on the search results, here's a summary of Sidney Laufman's landscape paintings, drawing from information that reflects critical perspectives: * Emphasis on Landscape: * Sidney Laufman is primarily recognized as a landscape painter. His works consistently feature landscapes, with trees often playing a prominent role. * He aimed to "reaffirm the value of landscape painting" within art history. * Realism and Expression: * His style is generally considered realist. * However, he did explore more abstract and expressionist interpretations of trees, particularly in the later part of his career (1950s and 1960s). * Conveying Emotion and Connection: * Laufman's landscapes are seen as more than just depictions of scenery. He sought to capture the emotional and spiritual connection between humans and nature. * His work is described as "the art of the lyric, the contemplative and the humanist." * Recognition and Modesty: * He achieved recognition, including prizes from prestigious institutions like the National Academy of Design. 1 of 2 Posted by: BifBewalski at March 18, 2025 09:52 AM (MsrgL) 89
This is from 1928-29, oil on linen.
Wiki does not have an article on Laufman. Where did he live and work? Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at March 18, 2025 09:52 AM (J2vNu) 90
* He was known for his unassuming and modest nature, which contributed to him being less widely known than his talent might have warranted.
* The Johnson Collection information: * The johnson collection provides a very good overview of his view of landscape painting. that it is more than just forms and colors, but that it represents mans relation to the world. In essence, Laufman's landscapes are valued for their ability to evoke a sense of wonder and contemplation, reflecting a deep appreciation for the natural world. 2 / 2 Posted by: BifBewalski at March 18, 2025 09:52 AM (MsrgL) 91

Posted by: Warai-otoko at March 18, 2025 09:50 AM (KtIIi) Sure, but you're seeing waaaaay more of the left side of the buildings on the right than the buildings on the left. The change happens too quickly to represent a static viewpoint. I suspect that the artist was a drug using communist. Possibly a homosexual as well.

Posted by: Xipe Totec at March 18, 2025 09:53 AM (pohLc) A few years ago, the Evansville Indiana art museum had a display of work by an artist who used "graphite on paper" as his medium. The guy drew close up views of rocks in a stream that looked like a black and white photo. Those pieces were fascinating to me. I love black and white photos and seeing the equivalent done with a graphite pencil on sketch book paper was amazing. Unfortunately, I can't remember the artist name.

The Washington, D.C., attorney general’s office has dropped its lawsuit against the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers over the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
In a court filing, the attorney general’s office said the city was unlikely to be able to find enough money to justify continuing the case against the conservative groups. The case was being dismissed with prejudice, which means the claims against the defendants cannot be brought again. Posted by: SMOD at March 18, 2025 10:17 AM (RHGPo) 204

I lived in a shotgun shack in New Orleans for year back in the day. Long linear layout, with an off-center front door which looked down a long narrow hallway with kitchen and one bedroom on the left, second bedroom door at the end of the hall, that when opened lined up directly to the back door.. Kind of a lower class, working class neighborhood.
Higher end shotgunn homes didn't really have a hallway, rather just large central openings with rooms laid out right downn the middfle from front to back. Posted by: muldoon at March 18, 2025 10:18 AM (/iMjX) Posted by: Anna Puma at March 18, 2025 10:18 AM (Ocj/H) 214

351 Ah, Russia… is there anything bad that they are NOT responsible for???
Posted by: tubal ====== Too many people use two value logic here--if Ukraine is bad then Russia is good or vice versa. Truth is that Russia has pissed in its cornflakes for centuries trying to bully and harass neighboring nations. Underneath the radar, ships were dragging their anchors to cut both power and communication lines recently in the Baltic between Finland, Sweden, etc. and the Baltic states. I am sure that someone will then blame those nations for being mean to poor ole Russia (in some cases back in the 1600's) and that they deserve these low level attacks or guilt by association aka NATO deserved it. As a result, Euroland is pretty much united in buying oil/gas from Russia and then loathing the Russians for how they act. We cannot claim to act better as we have bought oil from assholes supporting terrorism in the ME and elsewhere like Venezuela for nearly 70 years and basically we loathe those nations too. To sum up, most of our knowledge of foreign affairs between other nations is skimpy, prone to emotionalism, and subject to some really poor media coverage.

Saw "The Electric State"..now streaming on Netflix.
I didn't hate it. It's (a low bar I know) better than anything Marvel or Disney have put out lately, so maybe a B-B-. But, it illustrates two writing problems in modern movies. 1) Any white male can't be a hero who actually affects the outcome or tells the female character anything or isn't much more than a big blowhard. Remember Kurt Russell's character in "Big Trouble in Little China" how funny it was that you thought he'd be the big hero but he wound up doing almost nothing in the movie. Yeah...all that all the time. They totally wasted Chris Pratt by basically having him do nothing but follow the Bobby Brown character around. They gave him one really funny line and that's about it. Which leads us to 2. 2) The Girl Boss appears to be dead but it's now been replaced by the Snarky, Unpleasant Know-it-All as the main character. And Bobby Brown isn't a good enough actress to carry a movie on her shoulders. She gives good happy face and sad face and that's about it. There's nothing compelling about an older guy following around some young woman to no real effect. An okay watch. Check it out if you wish.

Posted by: tubal Possibly. Irony and sarcasm come across poorly via gray boxes. Ire is not so much directed at your post but a common thread I have seen. People acting as defense attorneys for various unsavory actions done by their adopted foreign countries. One of the reasons that Washington argued for no permanent foreign entanglements. He had fights in his own administration and in the country over France and its allies fighting the UK and its allies. Posted by: whig at March 18, 2025 11:09 AM (ctrM5) Posted by: BeckoningChasm at March 18, 2025 11:10 AM (WPL6O) The Morning Report — 3/ 18 /25![]() As a side note, the book is about anti-Semitism, disgustingly ironic considering the fact that despite his lineage, this self-gassing momzer, vontz, apostate has aligned himself with a party that is openly and brazenly anti-Semitic (and anti-Christian) given the events here and in Israel since October 7 2023 and the reactions of him and his party. And that is only recent history. But that said, the vitriol and venom shrieked at him from his own side is quite enjoyable, as it certainly is one indicator that he and his party are tearing themselves apart at the mere mention of the name of Donald Trump. And if a Molotov cocktail lit with a Democrat-funded (not for long!) men's room tampon fuse should set his limo on fire, or a pre-positioned George Soros brick put a new part in his hair transplants, I won't exactly shed a tear as he and his ilk brought it upon themselves. Despite what you may be reading and hearing in the Leftist Propaganda house organs, Trump's approval, both personal and most crucially agenda-wise are skyrocketing as the Democrats' have now dug their way clear through the Earth's core to the other side of the planet by continuing to embrace everything that normal Americans reject and are revolted by. Again, deliciously ironic for him to fear his own terror goon squads that were unleashed on America during the summer of love 2020 edition to destabilize the upcoming election and provide yet another smokescreen/excuse with the COVID lockdowns and evisceration of election security that helped the Dems steal that election. (And is COVID 2 Bird Flu boogaloo being prepped by the Deep State to take us and Trump down yet again?!) So as Schemer cowers in fear, he and his coven of scum, criminals, degenerates and thugs continue to go all out in support of Muslim terrorists (BIRM) and criminal illegal aliens while normal people are revolted. Yup, keep raping that chicken Chucky, all the way through to the midterms and then the 16 years of J.D. Vance and his running mate. Despite Schumer's fears, I very much doubt he'd be in favor of Kash Patel and Pam Bondi going after Antifa, BLM, ELF, Mecha, La Raza, CCAIR, Sharpton's NAN, the Black Panthers and every other official/unoffical Democrat-Leftist domestic terror organization. Personally, I think Soros' "Open Societies" funds most if not all of these bastards and needs to be RICO'd the hell out of existence and all of his assets confiscated. And how about going after the ACLU and SPLC while we're at it?! They're the ones who conspired with this hack-in-back Boasberg to block Trump's deportation of the Tren de Aragua illegal alien animals. Donald Trump is demonstrating a skill at backing his opponents into corners that he didn’t show in his first term. Elsewhere, Israel seems to have had enough, vis a vis trading live terrorists for dead mutilated Jews. And Trump also seems to be signaling, with his retaliatory attacks on the Houthis as a warning to Iran. It might also be a green light for Bibi to strike at them before they can go nuclear.

I've seen Dylan Mulvaney popping up here and there in various clips on X recently. I guess he was on The Spew and I saw him appearing somewhere else as well. All I can say is that this person acts, dresses and appears like no other woman I've ever known. He fancies himself a Gidget straight out of some 60s comedy, grinning, prancing and dancing around like a fool. His image of what he thinks being a woman is supposed to look and act like are so off the mark, all I can do is laugh. I always wonder what his father thinks of him.

In 2019, prior to the law, only 5% of cases prosecuted in New York City criminal court were dismissed because prosecutors couldn’t meet their compliance burden in time.
But the new threshold is impossible to meet; by last year, these forced dismissals had risen a simply shocking 455%. That’s right: around 50,000 cases — nearly a third of the total — were dismissed because defense attorneys successfully claimed prosecutors hadn’t met the stupid and unattainable new definition of compliance.

I don't know that Europe is lost. There are many pockets of resistance growing to resist their remarkably cruel globalist masters currently in charge. Trump may even be a catalyst for change even if it is just as an example to the rebels that it can be done. Godspeed to the resistance.

The Human Events piece is right on. If the administration is falling short on any front it is in advancing a coherent definition and outline of intention of the Left to the American people. This would include historical citation and case history along with current evidence. I believe this should be Vance's charge. He is rhetorically disciplined and, I'm guessing, historically literate on the subject. It is one thing to isolate and target various political miscreants and democrat party wannabe insurrectionists and assume the people will tie it all together. It is another to make a sustained, coherent indictment and public education campaign.

No, it's not. And there are obviously people who are not in favor of Europe's new direction. But they sure as hell aren't doing enough to fight back on their own, at least not to date. European countries surrendered much of their autonomy years ago when they agree to be ruled by unelected bureaucrats in Brussels. We took back our country without any help from Europe. In fact, they supported the other side and still do. When I see them really start fighting back then maybe I will have hope for them. Posted by: JackStraw at March 18, 2025 08:15 AM (LkLld) 134

No, it's not. And there are obviously people who are not in favor of Europe's new direction. But they sure as hell aren't doing enough to fight back on their own, at least not to date.
European countries surrendered much of their autonomy years ago when they agree to be ruled by unelected bureaucrats in Brussels. We took back our country without any help from Europe. In fact, they supported the other side and still do. When I see them really start fighting back then maybe I will have hope for them.

...But if Eastern Europe can continue to resist the globalists (adherence to religion is key) and if Trump can cultivate a friendlier relationship with Russia, I think there's a chance.
Posted by: Chuck Martel at March 18, 2025 08:20 AM (Dv3i1) Putin (and even Xi) are anti-Globalist, just like Trump. They have ambitions to be free of being slaves to said Globalists. Russia is the Globalists' boogeyman these days - trying to start WWIII, but Trump isn't on board with that, so you can count on better relations with Russia in the days to come. I could argue "adherence to religion" either way. The Pope seems to be pro-Globalist, and the Vatican has long been anti-American. But then, Eastern Orthodox Christianity broke away from Rome centuries ago. I guess it's a matter of whether the Globalists have infiltrated the hierarchy of the church in question.

Another way to look at it is that the Globalists are being forced to do desperate things. Also, since they are countering the will of the people, that means that they DO NOT HAVE the will of the people, despite the stranglehold they have on speech (that you outlined).

So when Trump promises to cut spending sharply and reduce the debt, Democrats go all-in against it, even though it’s something a huge majority of Americans support.
Agitating to continue waste, fraud and abuse — especially when there are truly glaring examples of it — is a bad look. The GOPe would always argue they needed to start with reform of SS and entitlements over all which allowed the Dems to claim they were going to cut it. Which got...nowhere...likely intentionally. Trump seems to understand though that before you do any deep reform you have to break the left and so he is targeting their funding irrespective of how much of the budget it is. I've been urging this for a while. Stop thinking of the budget process as some dry economic process. Think of it as war. Your goal is to stop funding your enemy and start hurting them through financial policy. Posted by: Anastasia at March 18, 2025 08:40 AM (t0Rmr) 227

Did Biden know what his autopen was signing? IIRC, there were over 1500 pardons in a day or two. That is a lot of signing. Did he have any idea what those 1500 documents said, or any of the names he pardoned?
In fact, was he even in the room when someone else applied his autopen signature to the documents? It's one thing to use an autopen. It's entirely another when the signatur has no idea what he is signing. That's fraud if someone or a group is doing it instead. Trump needs to hang onto this one like a junkyard dog.

Posted by: Chuck Martel at March 18, 2025 08:20 AM (Dv3i1) Let's assume, for the moment, that we're seeing a lasting realignment of American attitudes and policies about globalism, that eventually results in NATO being obsolesced and a permanent cut in US funding for various other globalist endeavors. I think that would *force* a wake-up call for Europe. Much of their insanity can only exist in a consequence free environment, a carefully tended hothouse where the Empire subsidizes them and physically protects them from reality.

The whole "autopen" debacle could be put to rest with a few simple words from the previous administration. The public would buy it... most of them anyway.
But I think those with a bit of wisdom and knowledge of the previous administration know anything they say will be misleading, false. That they even now haven't refuted, or even attempted to, is telling. Plus there's apparently someone with "insider knowledge" about the circumstances surrounding the various uses of this autopen. So, yea, Trump needs to run this to ground. I'm curious what's more important; the legislation, EO's or pardons that could be vacated with this. Probably all.

such limits" on pardons.
President George W. Bush's Department of Justice penned a 29 page opinion deeming the tech constitution, though the elder Bush reportedly never used it.

McCord: "So I think what President Biden felt was a sort of a moral obligation to try to protect them from unfounded, baseless investigations and prosecutions, because even though I think he, like I, have faith that people who did not commit any crime, ultimately there are other guardrails in the system that would prevent them from being convicted, but it can be expensive and emotionally and psychologically incredibly draining for the person who's targeted in their families if you are put through an investigation that's utterly baseless.

>>$5 says that a lot of autopen signatures don't have proper audit trails for authorization, and the Biden lawyers will argue that they're genuine signatures...even when he wasn't in DC.
I saw about post yesterday on X that claimed at least one of the documents that was signed while Joe was golfing in the Virgin Islands. I don't think anymore here would be surprised to learn that Biden's staff was making a lot of the decisions about pardons and other issues. Posted by: JackStraw at March 18, 2025 09:27 AM (LkLld) 413
So it was extraordinary. And similarly, with his family members, it's again, this concern about retribution. And that concern is well-founded, because it's something that Donald Trump and others close to him, including his nominee for the FBI director, have threatened.
Bennett: Understanding the concern, what's the precedent that's set by handing out pardons to people who have yet to be convicted, not even investigated for a crime? McCord: So there is some precedent for something like this, including President Carter's blanket pardons for draft dodgers after Vietnam, I mean, including people who hadn't been identified by the government or investigated." --- Now the door is wide open re: JB's application & preparation of Presidential pardons & other documents. In JB's case, covering over perjury &/or "material errors" might be an issue. 🤷♀ McCord: "So there are some questions to be raised, but, right now, we will just have to wait and see whether there are any investigations launched." McCord was Principal Deputy Assistant AG for the U.S. Department of Justice National Security Division, 2014-2016. She was also Acting Assistant AG for National Security, 2016-2017.

Lurking underneath the whole autopen debacle is the fact that the presidency itself had been reduced to what amounts to a legal fiction. Who really cares about some ink scratches on a paper no one will ever see again? There's Governing to do!

"Under the Biden administration, Feinman was the senior official in charge of a $42.5 billion nationwide rural broadband fund that connected - I am not making this up - precisely zero people."
I'm using StarLink right now at ~$120 a month. Works great most of the time (rain storms interfere with the sat link after all) and absolutely superior to ViaSat by any positive metric you could think of. StarLink speeds are similar to what I had when I lived in a place that had Fios internet. The location where I am will get fiber optic broadband by July-August this year. Monthly cost for 1G internet will be ~$100 a month. StarLink provides IPV6 support as well as IPV4; the fiber optic broadband provider won't provide IPV6 for a while. I've been happy with StarLink reliability and speeds. Fuck Feinman. Posted by: Richard Cranium at March 18, 2025 05:43 AM (8mudf) 36

These left wing nitwits are always trying to reinvent FDRs various agencies set up during the depression. From what I can tell, the broadband act was modeled on the 1936 Rural Electrification Act which transformed rural America permanently.
The sad news is the successor to the REA lives on to this day and was part of the Biden grift receiving $11 billion for hookers and blow. The broadband act, unlike the REA, was run by grifters who had no intention of ever actually doing any meaningful work. We were once a nation that built things until the Democrats eroded that until everything became a project to loot the nation's wealth.

I remember hearing about the Biden Billions that was coming to NC for internet right after he was elected, and it was "going to help connect millions of rural and low-income users" or something similar. They went on tour and talked in front of crowds about how the billions of dollars would help connect communities without internet access.
And then, when you dug into it, what it MEANT was that people on welfare would see a $10 or so credit on their account paid directly to the ISP each month. All laundering, all the time.

I got a laptop on sale a few months back with an i9 14900HX and it will do full-length h.264 video encoding in half the time my desktop Ryzen 9 5900X will. You should be getting the opposite of my experience. I’m assuming your laptop has soldered RAM since it’s U processor which would be faster but it shouldn’t be 10x performance difference.

An American, a Russian, and an Irishman were out at the pub in London. The Russian sneers and says that in Russia, Vodka is so cheap they only have to pay 2 Rubles a bottle.
The American snorts and says that in Wisconsin, good beer is so cheap it's only a dollar a bottle. They both look at the Irishman. The Irishman says he's not sure about that, but in Ireland, whiskey is so good that they pay you to drink it and not only that, he said, they'll even get you laid as part of the bargain! The Russian and American cannot believe it. "You get all the whiskey and sex you want and they pay you for it? Have you ever had this happen yourself?" the American demands.

When I went to college, i received a bouquet of 24 roses on St Patrick's day, with a card that read, "We're sorry you're not Irish." No name on the card, by the way. For the next five years, I received two dozen roses every St. Patrick's day, with the same card, covering undergrad and grad school.
It wasn't until I was married and home from overseas for a complicated pregnancy that my mom told me she and my dad did that, because... "I wasn't Irish and would never properly celebrate St. Patrick's day." Mom and Dad were teetotaling Southern Baptists, so I have no idea why they thought up this rather epic troll.

Evening everyone, thx Doof, great selections.
Years ago got tickets to see The Pogues at the Roseland Ballroom on St Patty's Day which was a Friday night. On Wed I was in court with another attorney who was going to see them Thurs. He said Shane McGowan fell off the stage last night in Boston and broke his knee. He figured the shows would be cancelled and Friday morning he came in and said the Thursday show was cancelled, but there was nothing on the website about Friday. Three friends and I got a limo drove to NYC. The Pogues came on stage pushing Shane out in a wheelchair with a big cup of whiskey in the cup holder. They blew the place away. Told my friend when I saw him Monday and he was pissed Posted by: Smell the Glove at March 17, 2025 10:20 PM (bVN1m) Posted by: OGlub at March 17, 2025 10:20 PM (77rzZ) 82

Monday, President Donald Trump named Michael Flynn to the United States Military Academy’s board of visitors, along with Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-Texas); Maureen Bannon, David Bellavia; and retired major general Dan Walrath.
The president also named Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville, Charlie Kirk and former deputy national security adviser Dina Powell, among others, to the Air Force’s board of visitors. Trump confirmed Montana Sen. Tim Sheehy; Sean Spicer; Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas); and Walt Nauta, to sit on the Naval Academy’s board of visitors. The boards are effectively advisory panels and can weigh in on curriculum, teaching, finances and other matters, with members nominated by Congress and the president. _Politico Posted by: Braenyard - some Absent Friends are more equal than others _ at March 17, 2025 10:21 PM (LdsRU) 88

Busy day at work, but I was able to fit in getting a RealID, which apparently you need to fly starting in May.
Without it, you will need to have a passport to fly anywhere withing the US. That's because of states giving drivers licenses to illegals. The airlines would prefer not to deal with illegals, so now there's this requirement. Posted by: Ian S. at March 17, 2025 10:23 PM (wItF4) 91

An Irishman's been drinking at a pub all night. When he stands up to leave, he falls flat on his face. He tries to stand one more time, but to no avail. Again, he falls flat on his face. He figures he'll crawl outside and get some fresh air and maybe that will sober him up. Once outside, he stands up and, sure enough, he falls flat on his face. The Irishman decides to crawl the two blocks to his house.
When he arrives at the door, he stands up and falls flat on his face. He manages to crawl through the door and up the stairs into his bedroom. When he reaches his bed, he tries one more time to stand up. This time, he pulls himself upright but he quickly falls right into bed. He is sound asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow. He awakens the next morning to his wife standing over him, "So, you've been out drinking again!" "Why do you say that?" he asks innocently. "Mick at the pub called. You left your wheelchair there again." Posted by: Grump928(c) blurts at March 17, 2025 10:51 PM (Q91V2) 146

Apparently, the last invasion of Britain happened at Bristol when a small French diversionary force of regular soldiers and convicts landed there to distract the British while the French invaded Ireland.
The invasion of Ireland was called off but the Black Legion did land and was soundly defeated by a capable British woman named Jemimah and a scratch British force. The leader of this Black Legion was an Irish American who hated the British. Posted by: Anna Puma at March 17, 2025 11:07 PM (Ocj/H) 172

Himself introduced me to the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem better than 50 years ago. We've picked up tons of Irish music since then. After a while, I had a revelation: the Irish use music as part of their war against Britain. A good half of the Wolftones' repertoire is anti British. A lot of the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem are anti British. Name any prominent Irish group and they have anti British songs. (Real groups, not made up ones like Irish Women and Celtic Storm.)

ONT Joke from 17 years ago:
Irishman's First Drink With His Son =========================== While reading an article last night about fathers and sons, memories came flooding back to the time I took me son out for his first pint. Off we went to our local pub only two blocks from the cottage. I got him a Guinness. He didn't like it, so I drank it. Then I got him a Kilkenny's, he didn't like that either, so I drank it.

It is a curious thing that Maureen O'Hara was spanked in a number of her films. Why this might be is unclear to Count O'rlock.
Also, my current...condition dates from the Fifteenth Century - would that make me "old-fangled"?

Surprisingly, at the end, after a young mid-20s woman seduces a 17-year-old cowboy for an ulterior motive -- they both get a good spanking over the knee by the wagon train boss. I thought: "there's no way that an old man spanking a young woman over his knee" could ever be depicted today.

I was reading a little bit about Red 40 and it replaced Amaranth, aka Red 2, after health issues with it were raised in '76.
The odd thing though is Amaranth comes from an edible plant. With many things the dose does make the poison but...are people consuming more of whatever the problematic substance is eating it as a dye versus a grain? Of course either way...why the hell do we so broadly dye food anyway? I doesn't affect the taste or smell. I remember when there were no red M&Ms and...they were just as enjoyable as now.

Sooo, an American, an Englishman, and an Irishman sit down at a bar. Out of nowhere a fly lands in each one of their beers. The Englishman looks at his beer with a frown and pushes it away. The American picks out the fly, tosses it, and starts drinking his beer. The Irishman picks the fly out of his beer, holds it up and yells "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT YE BASTARD".

I know of an oncology professor who has developed an actual vaccine that effectively treats melanomas, and it's not mRNA. It's cheap to produce and the side effect is that his patients don't come down with respiratory viruses. The problem is that it's cheap to produce and actually works without making patients sicker than they would be without treatment.

Most of Tesla’s $7.1 billion in net income last year doesn’t even derive from selling electric vehicles, solar panels or battery storage. Some $2.8 billion came from the sale of regulatory credits to other auto makers that need to comply with government EV mandates. As EV mandates have increased, so have Tesla’s profits from such credit sales.
Tesla made another $1.6 billion in interest income on cash and short-term investment holdings. Democrats can thank the Biden inflation for allowing companies to earn higher interest on their cash holdings. In addition, Tesla recorded nearly $600 million in book income from price appreciation in its bitcoin holdings, but this is akin to an unrealized capital gain.

An interesting comment I just read on a youtube video:
I once had a Pentagon historian tell me that "we don't know" is never good enough for companies or the government, and that "if I were honest", then I'd just go with the predominant hypothesis, even if it's wrong, rather than say that we simply don't know. That helped me to confirm that we are led by the least of us. Nature rewards "doing human" - not being honest and factual. According to our betters, the intellect is only there to serve the will. It's only to be used to get you what you want - so long as what you want is not merely "truth" in the abstract. Posted by: eleven at March 17, 2025 11:50 PM (0HaGk) 229

Impact of unfiltered sunlight and solar/cosmic radiation might well create free radicals in the polymers making up the space suits, and those free radicals would then react with O2 once the space walkers were back onboard.

A lab I worked in at KSC was the Flight Crew Training building used during Apollo. IT had a "mysterious" washer type set up poking out of the wall in one corner. One day some old-timer Apollo guy came by reliving his past and said, "Hey, this is where they cleaned the spacesuits, that the washer hookup right there!"
Said the ladies that worked there would take cellophane tape and stick it on the suits that came back from the moon and give them away to friends and such.

Yeah, about that. Last year they told us we had to get Real ID before December, because they wouldn't accept any other ID after the first of the year.
Turns out, they keep pushing it back because too many people decided not to bother doing it. And illegals fly all the time without it - they are exempt from that "rule".

It's very possible that for some period of time they will let people with noncompliant IDs through with a warning. Because they know that despite all the delays there will be absolute chaos at airports if they bar noncompliant people from flights. Posted by: Bigsmith at March 18, 2025 12:45 AM (1Au9i) 277

I have a tiny fraction of Ireland in my jeans, uh, genes. In the Ancestry stuff Linda did for me there's a tiny bit from my father's side. Mostly it's German, though.
Mom's side I knew about: Swedish (and Finnish, it turns out!) and eastern European, Ruthenia, which is now part of Ukraine, I think. I'm about as white European as it's possible to be, and I'm proud of that. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at March 18, 2025 03:55 AM (omVj0) 353

This isn't about St. Patrick's Day per se, but it is about the Irish, which I approximate in the shallow end of my gene pool.
I was told by someone with an Irish surname that eating corned beef and cabbage on New Year's Day was a form of cultural appropriation of the "lived experience" variety and not really appreciated by the Irish, because corned beef and cabbage is what the poor Irish had to eat during the potato famine. This faux pax, mind you, nearly brought the Irish-surnamed person to the brink of tears not to mention self-righteous disgust. I didn't apologize, of course, being 1/100th Irish myself, but it did bring to mind something I once heard of Dubliners not caring a "fair smidge" about those suffering in the hinterlands as they feasted on roast beef and potatoes during the famine.

I think hippos are generally considered the 2nd most dangerous African animal after Cape Buffalo. I have this weird memory from 20+ years ago of taking the kids to a zoo, probably Audubon in NOLA, where they had an audio tour thingie and the hippo had its own catchy little jingle that had the lines (something something something) do not let him alarm you he is a vegetarian and would not want to harm you I was amazed at the utter bullsh*t they were trying to teach kids.

In astro-gnomonical news, today is the equilux, or as closest to it as we get for most everybody in the US. About 12 hours of daylight vs 12 hours of night. This occurs before the equinox because sunrise and sunset are defined with the upper limb of the sun just touches the horizon. We are also in the window near the vernal equinox when the rate of change of daylight is the greatest. Here at ~35N latitude, that's 2:11 per day. Up in Alaska, it's over 6 minutes per day. 3 days until equinox and the start of astronomical spring. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at March 17, 2025 08:16 PM (w6EFb) 66

>>I know my limits. The closest I want to get to African wildlife is the movie "Hatari!".
I didn't know this before my first trip but bull elephants have a period known as musth when their hormones spike and they are ready to breed. They protect their females and get very aggressive. We were on one of those typical trucks with bench seats you always see in pictures of game drives. There were two German tourists behind us. We came upon a bull who was in musth and he got very angry. He would charge at us from behind the truck, trumpeting and throw dirt in the air with his trunk and the game warden would speed up and then slow and let the elephant catch up and he kept repeating it. The Germans keep screaming MUST GO FASTER! GO NOW! They were terrified and the game warden and the rest of us were laughing our asses off. Posted by: JackStraw at March 17, 2025 08:17 PM (LkLld) 69

The Smelly Chick will be undocking from the space station a little after midnight tonight.
If you're interested NASA+ will be streaming that. The hatch closing starts about 10:45PM EDT, and the undocking around 12:45AM. She will start her de-orbit burn around 5:00 PM EST tomorrow.

Posted by: Cattle Annie and Little Britches The Watusi have a breed of cattle named after them. Posted by: Ben Had Wiki, about the watusi cattle: It was probably introduced to Uganda between five and seven hundred years ago by nomadic pastoralists from more northerly parts of the continent. So, brought in from the northeast part of Africa quite recently. Not the sort of animals stone-age Africans had to work with. Maasai, the same. Herders for about the last 400+ years. Europeans and Mideasterners have been farming for 5000-7000 years. Mostly because they had animals that took well to domestication. Cattle, horses, sheep, goats. Even hogs are easier to domesticate than most of what Africa had to work with. Posted by: mikeski at March 17, 2025 08:58 PM (DgGvY) 138

Maybe the only time a herd of cattle was used offensively in a war was in 1591 in Mali. The Battle of Tondibi pitted the invading army of Morocco against the Songhai tribe, the cattlemen. Songhai tried to stampede their 1,000 cattle herd toward the Moroccans, but the invaders shot their guns and cannons, and the cattle turned back on the Songhai. Defenders had no gunpowder weapons, so they were doomed.
Moroccans thought the Songhai had gold mines and gold wealth, but they had none, or very little. Posted by: Cattle Futures And Past at March 17, 2025 09:16 PM (G5+As) Posted by: Tonypete at March 17, 2025 09:16 PM (cYBz/) 157

The Possible sinking of the Zagros is a very thinly sourced story at this point. Lots of stories floating around; someone posted a video of some American warship being hit; turns out it was some freighter in 2016. It would be nice if it was taken out , but there’s got to be confirmation.

Whoopi Goldberg is sad that her terrorist and rapist illegal alien pals are afraid of being deported. President Donald Trump's administration deported over 200 of gang members part of Venezuela's Tren de Aragua and several members of MS-13 to El Salvador and Honduras on Saturday, which sparked backlash as a judge issued a last-minute order attempting to block the deportations. Goldberg warned that the Trump administration could randomly choose any American to be deported to a country they are not familiar with, though that would be a blatant violation of the U.S. Constitution. "If they can just come up and take somebody because they've made a decision that you're supposed to be that person, anyone of us could find ourselves being deported to some country we've never been," Goldberg said. "Well you know, it is very clear to me that if we don't continue to say, listen, I understand you want to clean out all the bad stuff, I get it. But why do you now have access to my personal information? I get the things you're trying to do, I don't get why you're taking my stuff, not just me personally, but every single one of you and your constitutional right of free speech." Bonus: A judge hit large-cootered donut wagon Fani Willis with a big fine for hiding subpoenaed documents about her affair with Sweetdick. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been slapped with a $54,000 penalty for blatantly violating Georgia's open records laws in her politically motivated prosecution of President Donald Trump. "The county's Superior Court Judge Rachel Krause formalized her ruling Friday and ordered Willis to pay $54,264 in attorneys' fees and litigation costs after 'intentionally' failing to provide records requested by Ashleigh Merchant, the attorney who filed the motion to disqualify Willis from prosecuting Trump on charges of allegedly interfering with the 2020 presidential election," reports Fox News Digital.

The federal judge overseeing the case decided to postpone a hearing in the case on Monday after Ms. Marzouk requested more time to prepare. She represents Dr. Alawieh's cousin, Yara Chehab, who brought the case first to try to stop the government from deporting Dr. Alawieh, and then to seek her return to the United States.
If this was a right leaning person during the Biden years we would hear her cousin had no standing to sue and really...how does a cousin have that right? Posted by: 18-1 at March 17, 2025 06:40 PM (t0Rmr) 14

It's not enough for Trump to be 80-20 on an issue, he needs to be 99-1, ordering terrorists to be let free is about as close to that as you can get.

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at March 17, 2025 06:35 PM (2VST1) --- Yeah, there was only so much credit and sympathy I can give a guy who bought into the whole "conservatives weaponize" inconvenient truths against "good government". But it does to me illustrate the most common fallacious reasoning I see in moderns. He's not bigoted against people of other races, so therefore bigotry itself is somebody else's flaw. When a reasonable review of his prior beliefs comes to the reasonable conclusion that he was biased and bigoted against conservatives. His description of his decision process is very aligned with what can be called "prejudice". And that's not saying that I view "prejudice" or "bigotry" against conservatives as the same import as ethnical bigotry and prejudice. But it is the same mental flaw, is all. You're still feeding your bigot and prejudice "urge", just not with the same soup as others. Posted by: Axeman at March 17, 2025 06:47 PM (krQz2) 48

Yeah, I read several stories on this deported professor over the weekend.
All of them emphasized she had a "valid visa," that she was a professor and a doctor. All of them portrayed her visit to Lebanon as merely a routine visit; some saying "to see family" but most not even saying why. All of them quoted only family members and CAIR all repeating how horrible and evil it was. They all knew the real reason she went and why she was detained. I knew something stunk not just from what they were clearly leaving out but also how CAIR was involved. But the left really, really, really thought they finally had a sympathetic, innocent victim to hammer Trump.

Democrats and a lot of their judges don't seem to understand Americans are tired of out of control government, of which the judiciary is perceived a part of.
--- yeah, they are pretty deep in the delusion that they think America views them as neutral parties, merely calling balls and strikes. They have no clue that Roberts' "there are no Democrat judges, there are no Republican judges" wasn't just mocked but was pretty fucking insulting to the majority of Americans.

they don't wash that Posted by: Auspex at March 17, 2025 06:55 PM (j4U/Z) Fun story: My cousin, who was quite the character, got dreadlocks his freshman year at college. He rarely washed his hair after that and his friends even pinned a VW badge into the back of his hair. The next year his good friend got cancer, and as a fundraiser for the friend, my cousin promised that if he got $5k in a month, he'd cut the dreds off. He got that amount within a week, including a huge donation from our grandma, plus a smaller donation from the friend with cancer. A platform was set up on campus, and several people got turns with the razor. The friend ended up passing away not long after, but it's a great memory my cousin has of him.

Um? How did they know what was deleted?
Forgotten by most Americans, but is was a big controversy a few years back: Customs don't need a warrant to search your phone. IIRC, folks were shocked at being pulled over near the border "for no reason" and being searched, including their phones. Posted by: People's Hippo Voice at March 17, 2025 07:12 PM (7oyRZ) When you delete a file, for speed the file is just marked as deleted and the space will not be re-used until new files are added that cover it. Special software can unmark that file and these would be interesting for investigators. Posted by: Oldcat at March 17, 2025 07:16 PM (n7h9X) 171

If she has a smartphone, and she had it in her purse at the funeral-- and the answer to both of those is almost certainly 'yes'-- they could had the means to know she was there. And if they knew that, the probable cause could be 'You attended the funeral of a known terrorist leader'.

Was she arrested for something that gave probable cause for her phone to be searched? -- No PC needed to search you at the border. Cute border collie sniffing your luggage and sitting shoulda told ya' Reading between the lines of the story: They've been watching her for a while. And they knew why she went. And that she likely ferried something from the US over there to give to the people she met. Because she thinks the US men will assume she's just an innocent woman. The whole "pull her for additional screening" wasn't to determine what she did, but to confirm, by her lying about it. Next shoe to drop: She won't land in Lebanon. She's going to have weeks of interrogation before she gets turned. Or turned over to her terrorist pals. Win-win. Posted by: People's Hippo Voice at March 17, 2025 07:20 PM (7oyRZ) 185

Actually, despite what NYT says, the 'professor' did NOT have a valid visa. It was revoked due to their support of terrorists. Which the Executive branch of the government has the authority to do at any time. Sort of a "We reserve the right to refuse you service at any time for any reason."

Posted by: Kimo Loka at March 17, 2025 10:52 PM (rbcSc) Polls Are Made for Strippers But I'm Pretty Sure This Stripper Is Really Into MeA new NBC poll shows Trump with the highest approval ever and a party almost completely united behind him. Check out how they spin that finding:How will Trump handle the "challenge" of record popularity? So what they're trying to avoid stating clearly is that voters had had a terrible impression of the economy and the nation's direction under Biden, and now, under Trump, they are much more positive about the economy and the direction of the country. NBC wants to emphasize that the public still has doubts -- not that the public's mood has shifted much more positive than it had been. Buoyed by jubilant and unified Republicans, who are standing in lockstep with Trump and the expansive agenda he and congressional leaders are pushing in Washington, more registered voters see the U.S. as heading in the right direction than at any point since early 2004, though a majority still say the country is on the wrong track. Trump's approval rating also equals his best-ever mark as president (47%), though again, a majority (51%) disapproves of his performance.Remember, this is a #Rigged NBC poll of the NPR editors and fading celebrities with multiple transgender children. The numbers may be a touch off. The liberal media rule is that if any liberal is unsatisfied with a Republican, the public is "deeply divided." Biden, on the other hand, was popular, until the media pressured him to drop out. ... In another change from Trump's first term in the White House, the public has come around on his deportation-focused immigration policies, though voters are wary of his handling of other issues, including foreign policy. Voters like the general idea of the Department of Government Efficiency, the Trump-blessed effort to slash government jobs and spending. But they harbor reservations about its rapid-fire execution so far, as well as about billionaire Trump adviser Elon Musk, DOGE's de facto head. And voters are split evenly on which party they'd like to see win the 2026 midterm elections, even as the Democratic Party faces record-low popularity and fractious divides over how to respond to Trump. (The survey was conducted March 7-11, before Senate Democrats provided a handful of votes to help resolve a government funding fight.) "While this survey shows a mixed result for Donald Trump, Democrats are the ones in the wilderness right now," said Democratic pollster Jeff Horwitt of Hart Research Associates, who conducted this survey with Republican pollster Bill McInturff of Public Opinion Strategies. Horwitt called Trump's upside-down numbers among independents "a flashing red light across the survey." ... Trump's job approval rating (47%) and personal favorable rating (46%), along with the 44% who believe the country is on the right track, are at all-time highs in NBC News polling during his political career. But they are also far below where previous presidents stood during the "honeymoon period" of new administrations, marking the polarization that has defined the Trump years. Slightly more disapprove of Trump's job performance (51%) and view him personally negatively (49%), and 54% see the country as on the wrong track.Yes, because the Demented Usurprer Biden drove the country into a ditch and it's taking time to get ourselves out of it. ... When it comes to the issues, Trump fares particularly well on immigration. Fifty-five percent of voters approve of his handling of border security and immigration, while 43% disapprove. A similar share, 56%, say he's bringing the "right kind of change" on the issue, while 25% say he's bringing the wrong change and 18% say he isn't bringing change. But that's the only one of the five issues tested in the poll -- border security and immigration, foreign policy, the economy, inflation and cost of living, and the war between Russia and Ukraine -- that sees a majority of American voters approve of how Trump is handling it. ... Just 1% rate the economy as "excellent" and 17% as "good," with 39% calling it "only fair" and 43% rating it "poor." While Republicans are more likely to have favorable views of the economy than others, majorities across virtually every demographic still view the economy in an unfavorable light. ... The NBC News poll also gauged voters' feelings on what kind of change Trump is bringing as president, with 40% saying he's bringing the right kind of change to inflation and the cost of living, while 30% say he's bringing the wrong change and 28% say he isn't bringing change. On trade and tariffs, 41% say he's bringing the right change, 38% say the wrong change and 18% say he is not bringing change. Overall, 46% said Trump is bringing the right kind of change, 30% said he's bringing the wrong kind of change, and 21% said he's not bringing change.A CNN poll finds that the Democrat Party is more unpopular than it has ever been in their polling history. Democrats view their own party unfavorably: ... Democratic-aligned adults say, 52% to 48%, that the leadership of the Democratic Party is currently taking the party in the wrong direction. That's another shift from eight years ago, when views on this metric were largely positive. Among the American public overall, the Democratic Party's favorability rating stands at just 29% -- a record low in CNN's polling dating back to 1992 and a drop of 20 points since January 2021, when Trump exited his first term under the shadow of the January 6 attack at on Capitol. The Republican Party's rating currently stands at 36%. That's driven in part by relatively high levels of dissatisfaction within the Democratic Party. Just 63% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents report a favorable view of their own party, a dip from 72% in January and 81% at the start of President Joe Biden's administration. The decline comes across ideological wings, with favorability ratings for the Democratic Party falling by 18 points among liberals and moderates alike since the start of 2021.The public no longer believes the Democrat Party is "mainstream." Democrats don't like any of their possible candidates: Democrats are particularly angry at Cuck Schumer for suggesting he was going to fight the CR before cucking out like a closet cuck. They're so angry, in fact, that Schumer has cancelled his book tour -- he's afraid of protests and difficult questions, but is also, he says, afraid that some of his leftwing supporters might try to physically attack him. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has canceled book tour events this week because of security concerns amid a backlash over his support for a Republican bill to prevent a government shutdown last week.As a commenter said, he must be afraid of all those White Supremacists angry at him for not being more opposed to Trump. ... Event pages for several of the planned stops for Schumer's book, Antisemitism in America: A Warning, which is scheduled to be released on Tuesday, showed postponement announcements on Monday morning. "Sen. Schumer's book tour events during the week of March 17 are being postponed for security reasons. We will work to reschedule this event at a later date," reads the page for an event planned to be held Wednesday at Sixth & I, a synagogue in Washington, D.C. There were calls to protest his speeches following his vote on the funding bill, which is also known as a continuing resolution (CR). "PROTEST SCHUMER'S BOOK TOUR NEXT WEEK," Emma Vigeland, co-host of the left-leaning show The Majority Report, posted to X, formerly Twitter, on Friday while also sharing a list of events planned for this week. Backlash against Schumer continued into Monday, as he faced growing calls from the party to step down as the Democratic Senate leader. An online petition of Democrats who would withhold party donations until he steps down had been signed nearly 25,000 times.

Let's put it this way: there are a bunch of issues that people have been going "what the hell am I on crazy pills??" for years now. Over ten years. My barber, the cashier at the store, people in restaurants, just whoever, chatting. People were baffled, frustrated, and upset at the sheer insanity going on. Apolitical people, people who lean leftish. People who just want to live their lives.
Stuff like tranny bathrooms, and open borders, and massive waste, fraud and blatant abuse of power. Stuff we've all talked about for years and felt helpless about. Watching Army ads and going "THESE are the people who are protecting us??" Frustration at Fire Departments easing requirements so they get more women into the job. On and on and on it goes. Everyone has been so sick of it for so long and now some dude comes along, kicks the door in and goes: ALL THIS CRAP ENDS TODAY. So yeah. I can buy most people are happy with this.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 9% former vice president Kamala Harris, 8% Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and 6% House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Another 4% each name former president Barack Obama and Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett, with Schumer joining a handful of others at 2%."

Yes, because the Demented Usurprer Biden drove the country into a ditch and it's taking time to get ourselves out of it.
--- But how far do you think Trump could get if he said he "didn't want to hear from the guys who drove the country into the ditch"? It was not a cause of concern when Obama said that he "didn't want to hear" from the guys he blamed. But I bet it would be if Trump said it. Posted by: Axeman at March 17, 2025 05:57 PM (krQz2) 53
I am part of that 27% that approves highly of the Democrat party's current activities. It's overwhelmingly entertaining.
It's so bad for them right now that there a growing movement in the Blue states to want Canada's newly installed Gnome (Mark Carney) to serve as Guardian of the United States. That's how you know that no democrat has stepped up to fill the leadership void. The NPC's are looking to Canada. Incidentally, you want to know why no US democrat has stepped forward? It's because they know DOGE and Trump will put them under the microscope, and there are toooo many skeletons in the closet for all the chosen ones. So they are keeping a low profile.

I'm going to hazard a guess a majority of Americans are pleased with the lack of "business as usual" in Washington.
Only the insane believe doing the same government nonsense over and over will eventually lead to success. President Trump is moving hard to hit countries with tariffs while reducing taxes at home. I think President Trump knows reducing taxes while raising tariffs is, at worst, neutral for citizens from a paycheck standpoint. However, I believe President Trump believes rebuilding the middle class will help everyone and, in the end, people will reap huge benefits over the long term.

----------- When more and more of the Democrat office fillers became "fundamentally non-serious" choices, they took their eye off the ball.

If history is any guide the media will eventually build up enough mental anguish about Trump that people will need to another session of crash and burn with the Dems. Read this post from this guy who got drummed out of med school during Covid for not following the song sheet. Problem is that he revealed just how biased and auto-thinking he had been against conservatives until his ox was gored. The media machine knows that you can build up back pressure against Trump if they turn the hose full blast, and perhaps we need another round of "finding out" from the Dems. I hope that's not the case, but the machine is gambling that it is.

Read this post from this guy who got drummed out of med school during Covid for not following the song sheet. Problem is that he revealed just how biased and auto-thinking he had been against conservatives until his ox was gored.
Yeah I read that too, basically he was forced to realize that maybe his presumptions might not be true, and then started to wonder what ELSE might not be? I think the Wuhan Flu and its hysterical over reaction had that effect on a lot of people. The media machine knows that you can build up back pressure against Trump if they turn the hose full blast, and perhaps we need another round of "finding out" from the Dems. Its always worked in the past. It took 1½ terms with Bush, but I am not convinced they can pull it off this time, not in Trump's term. Their ability to flood the zone and control the narrative has... diminished. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at March 17, 2025 06:35 PM (2VST1) 234

Funny thing about Hunter hiding out in South Africa. Read some stories about the wypipo that used to be in that neck of the woods way back in the day. They'd always have hired (black) security guys, and when it was time for whitey to leave country, they'd go to dinner with their security, excuse themselves to the bathroom, and never return - having hired transport beforehand. Because when your armed security learned you were leaving, the last thing they'd do is rob you blind and/or kill you. So you packed your shit, had it sent ahead, and just disappeared.

It was a very emotional moment for us to stand in the Great Room at Ellis Island, realizing that both their moms and one father had passed through there, and because they ventured here, we were now here.

Posted by: Kindltot at March 17, 2025 06:22 PM (D7oie) ---------------- That's because the usual suspects cannot understand lower taxes will offset higher prices due to tariffs. Posted by: blake - semi lurker in marginal standing (tT6L1) at March 17, 2025 06:26 PM (tT6L1) People won't see much higher prices because other alternatives exist. French wines are expensive, but American or Australian wines knock you out just as fast and the hangover is just as painful. So you pay only a little more, unrelated to the tariff. And for local products you may add domestic jobs to the mix for cute grape crushing maidens. Posted by: Oldcat at March 17, 2025 06:48 PM (n7h9X) 257

Publius, after sleeping on you question last night about ease or difficulty of docking approaches, my memory may have failed me at that instant. My team worked exclusively on Shuttle Orbiter prox ops - docking approaches and undocking departures. The Orbiter center of mass was approximately 35 feet aft of the docking mechanism. Making it ~35 feet below the Vbar of a typical symmetric space station. So that was a factor that affected the approach problem that did not apply in Gemini and Apollo dockings. Ah, I've forgotten so many details of our work. (I was and am not an orbital mechanics expert, I was managing the work of experts.) I need to look for one of the team reports in files I brought home and refresh my memory. Apologies if I confused you or drove you nuts with my answer last night.

Publius, another PS -
Orbiter docking and undocking +Zo axis (toward the target vehicle) reaction control firings were constrained by the need to keep plume impingement loads on Station Alpha/ISS and Mir solar arrays within the limits we were given. That turned-out to not be a big problem given the canting of the Orbiter's RCS engines, but that's a long story. If the pilot let the Orbiter get above the closing velocity limit, it cost a lot of prop to slow down in-close to the target. +Zo-axis canted Xo-axis engines had to be fired, producing much less -Zo thrust than the dedicated -Zo engines. It turned-out that the Orbiter was a fantastic prox-ops vehicle, for several inter-related reasons. Posted by: Gref at March 17, 2025 07:10 PM (aBgBM) 265

The Pardon Attorney is a “career” position in that it is not an office that requires a presidential appointment that is confirmed by the Senate.

The 56-year-old anchor, who had been with MSNBC for over a decade, is said to be furious over what she sees as a backstabbing betrayal from the very network she helped build.
This is laughable ass-kissing by a fawning reporter. MSNBC was created in the late 90s, you ignorant ankle-biter. I know, it was the only news channel I really watched for years when it still did bits on technology and gaming and Soledad O'Brien was a cute little doll before she went to CNN and turned into an Irish-Mexican communist. If anybody built MSNBC it was Chris Matthews, Keith Oberdoofus and Don Imus in the early 2000s before everybody over there in Fort Lee, NJ lost their minds and went full retard for the Democrat party.

The Emperor died at 6:33 am on 7 January 1989 at the age of 87. The announcement from the grand steward of Japan's Imperial Household Agency, Shoichi Fujimori, revealed details about his cancer for the first time. Hirohito was survived by his wife, his five surviving children, ten grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.[24

How does one show need 125 producers?
----------- It doesn't need that level and doesn't *have* that level. One of our tendencies is to take some things a little too literally, and somehow that number (125) and the number 250 were both at some point thrown out as just a pure made up example of corporate bloat and then some of us ran with it, like we often do.

Some stupid remark blown up by the MSM to score points against people they don't like. Donald Trump represents change. We feel some of it here, but in countries that only spend 1.4% of GDP for defense, and heavily subsidize their own food production, the wind is blowing pretty strong, and the Yoorups don't like it one bit. The health system, all of the benefits earned by selling their products to the Yankees while severely limiting US imports through tariffs and trade restrictions are at risk in Europe.

Posted by: jk at March 17, 2025 07:05 PM (cpVs2) Now It Can Be Told: UK "Intelligence" Also Knew Covid-19 Was Manufactured in Fauci's Wuhan Lab, and Also Lied to the World About ItAre these the West's intelligence services, or China's? Before getting to that, the New York Times now admits the truth: Yes, covid-19 came from the Wuhan lab. Why did they participate in this massive lying psyop against the American people? They didn't, they say! They were "badly misled," you see.Now, the NYT -- and not even in its own editorial voice -- wants to play victim of The Science(R):The Regime is abandoning the China-protecting cover story of a "wet market spillover." The lie just won't hold, and is causing the world's "intelligence" services, leftwing media, and leftwing government officials further losses of credibility they just can't afford. So the truth is being dripped out, slowly.Since scientists first began playing around with dangerous pathogens in laboratories, the world has experienced four or five pandemics, depending on how you count. One of them, the 1977 Russian flu, was almost certainly sparked by a research mishap. Some Western scientists quickly suspected the odd virus had resided in a lab freezer for a couple of decades, but they kept mostly quiet for fear of ruffling feathers. Yet in 2020, when people started speculating that a laboratory accident might have been the spark that started the Covid-19 pandemic, they were treated like kooks and cranks. Many public health officials and prominent scientists dismissed the idea as a conspiracy theory, insisting that the virus had emerged from animals in a seafood market in Wuhan, China. And when a nonprofit called EcoHealth Alliance lost a grant because it was planning to conduct risky research into bat viruses with the Wuhan Institute of Virology -- research that, if conducted with lax safety standards, could have resulted in a dangerous pathogen leaking out into the world -- no fewer than 77 Nobel laureates and 31 scientific societies lined up to defend the organization. So, the Wuhan research was totally safe and the pandemic was definitely caused by natural transmission: It certainly seemed like consensus. We have since learned, however, that to promote the appearance of consensus, some officials and scientists hid or understated crucial facts, misled at least one reporter, orchestrated campaigns of supposedly independent voices and even compared notes about how to hide their communications in order to keep the public from hearing the whole story. And as for that Wuhan laboratory's research, the details that have since emerged show that safety precautions may have been terrifyingly lax. They all knew, they all lied, David Strom says. We just found out that Germany's intelligence services concluded long ago with 80-95% confidence that covid-19 was cooked up in Fauci's Wuhan branch. Now it turns out that MI-6 always knew the truth, too. Not only did they lie, but the "intelligence" services targeted people telling the truth for censorship, debanking, and reputation-destroying smears.

Like an idiot, posted to the wrong thread, AND willowed:
Significant commerce has been avoiding the Red Sea passage for well over a year. Insurance rates for high value ships and cargo forced shipping to take the long route around Africa. Only relatively low value commodities have taken the shorter path. Houthis were initially targeting any ship that was affiliated with Israel in any way. When this started, France was escorting their ships through, but they stopped. Egypt is getting fucked by the loss of Suez traffic; the toll is like $500k - $1m per ship. Europe should be taking the lead on this, but they are helpless and have no will to do so. If we get involved, we should fuck the Houthis hard, along with Iran. IF. WE. GET. INVOLVED.

I'm not sure about this explanation. The vast majority of Americans, including all LIVs and probably even most politically-aware people, have already forgotten about the origins of CV19, or at least moved on with their lives. The FNM could literally never mention CV19 again, and pretend it never happened. No, all this is coming out for a different reason. What that reason is, I'm not sure. It's like they're clearing the decks for something, throwing former heroes and saints under the bus. I'm just not sure why.

It was a wealth redistribution, from the middle class to the elites, as well as a test run for seeing how easily they could take people's civil rights (it was wildly successful). In addition to being a dress rehearsal for global depopulation. It's possible the timing was in part due to the need to defeat Trump in 2020, but even that, I think it was more an effort to see if they could control elections more fully. Which of course, they could and did. Posted by: BurtTC at March 17, 2025 03:37 PM (dGCAG) 30

Bear in mind, if the stuff was loose by fall of '19 in China, given travel patterns and the timing of (publicly visible) response it was already worldwide by the time anything was done to "slow the spread". Modern international travel is like that, once you know something like this has gotten loose your time to contain it is expressed in hours. Not days. Not weeks. Just the time it takes someone to hop a plane and fly to another continent.

Interesting, China and Russia are kind of friendly. Russia developed its own vax.

Think about all that’s happened. People died. People’s lives were ruined. They forced people to take a shot they didn’t want or need. People were confined to their homes, some were prosecuted and persecuted if they resisted. Grandparents and those afflicted died alone, and were no permitted funerals. They forced outrageous demands on citizens that weren’t based on facts, just their small, power drunk minds. It wasn’t America, it was an authoritarian police state run by those in power who wielded that authority with reckless abandon and no respect for anyone’s civil rights.
There should be heads on pines for this. Meanwhile people are like, meh. It’s surreal how much people will abandon and the power they will cede when intimidated. It’s a nation of many cowards. Posted by: Vengeance at March 17, 2025 03:55 PM (GpnAF) 159
I'm not sure about this explanation. The vast majority of Americans, including all LIVs and probably even most politically-aware people, have already forgotten about the origins of CV19, or at least moved on with their lives. The FNM could literally never mention CV19 again, and pretend it never happened.
No, all this is coming out for a different reason. What that reason is, I'm not sure. It's like they're clearing the decks for something, throwing former heroes and saints under the bus.

Were dozing like fat bears in winter when: - American citizens had their businesses seized by the government and shut down. Some permanently. - American citizens were being thrown to the ground and arrested for not wearing a mask in public - American citizens were censored at the request of multiple federal agencies. Some losing their only form of income. - American citizens were forced to take an experimental medical treatment -- And a thousand other abuses of civil and Constitutional rights These worthless cunts all ran away when it came time to protect the rights of American citizens.

Let's see if we can tie a couple of today's threads together.
1. All the intelligence services, Germany/UK/US knew in early 2020 that the virus came from the Wuhan lab. 2. The US intelligences services, and the NIH, collaborated to hide this fact. 3. Trump was President in early 2020, and was presumably among those lied to. 4. Trump announced today that Slow Joe's pardon's were invalid. This needs legal testing. 5. Fauci Received a pardon. Therefore, to test the validity of voiding the pardons, we should try Fauci for insubordination, and let things fall as they may.

My leftist friend can't be persuaded that it was a biowarfare lab leak paid for by Fauci and his henchmen. The ventilators killed more than they saved. Masks didn't work. The millions spent on hospital ships was totally wasted...other than an exercise. Kids forever stunted education. Ivermectin branded as useless when it works for many.

Of course, once he lied about what he did in Ukraine, and then went on to explain that he became a global warmist when he flew over Africa and saw too many people on the continent, I turned it off. He has the same perspective as other climate fascists - too many people on the planet with skin darker than his that need to die off.

The question that needs to be asked is why did China, realizing how contagious it was, immediately fly people from Wuhan all over the world? They will find the answer is the Chinese did not want to suffer alone, and if they were going to be affected, they were going to spread it around the world. They should be made to compensate the rest of the world. I'm thinking $37 trillion to the US ought to cover it.

It's not so straightforward as that. An anonymous Ubisoft employee told a French magazine that Ubisoft had lawyers prepared to file complaints if people harassed their employees. It's possible they'll have an overbroad definition of harassment that includes criticism of the game. It's also possible they mean what they say.

On Friday, Alawieh’s cousin filed a habeas corpus petition, which got on the docket at 6:43 PM.
Sorokin’s order to not move Alawieh outside the Massachusetts district at 7:18 PM. CBP officers escorted Alawieh to a gate around 7:20 PM for a flight to Paris. It departed at 7:43 PM and took off at 7:59 PM. Clare Saunders, a member of Alawieh’s legal team, said she was at the Boston airport when Sorokin filed the order. She insisted she told a CBP officer about the order. Once the order went through, Saunders claimed she couldn’t reach a CBP officer to tell them about it and tried calling the number at the CBP office eight times. When that didn’t work she went to a police kiosk and slammed the emergency button at 7:55 PM. But by then, as stated above, Alawieh was already on the plane. -- all the LOLs!

Posted by: Oldcat at March 17, 2025 04:12 PM (n7h9X) --- Look. I can't do what they do. I can't claim to be some sort of mind-reader. What I can do is use their argument to show how their own claim is irrelevant. Even using "Hanlon's Razor", by not attributing to malevolence what can be explained by ignorance, we have to assess that what is characteristic about malevolence is a degree of harm. Without harm, voodoo wishes and evil eyes don't really have much to be accounted for. So, if we do the equivalent amount of harm with arrogance + ignorance, it's a wash. If somebody uses arrogance to twist every attempt to get a person claiming "ignorance" some information, then they weren't simply "ignorant". They can't just claim "ignorance", they were a focused type of "ignorance". They were a resilient strain of ignorance. Good faith ignorance is one thing, virulent ignorance is another.

"I hope Trump makes Fauci's pardon null and void."
So snopes is claiming that the National Archives told them that they place a digitized presidential signature - not the actual one - on presidential documents. Snopes and their ilk call it a de-bunking. Is this true? Why would they do that? Even if true, pull the actual pardons and see if the pen pressure was uniform throughout the signature - which would be the signature of an autopen signature.

Foucault is responsible, more than others that I know of, for the idea that any type of recognition of a quality gradient (X is a better than Y) is "bias" and "arbitrary".
The irony is that he implies that non-hierarchical systems are better than inherent hierarchies. Thus, forms a hierarchy his theory cannot explain. Rational people would have quit there. They would have observed that it's like the relativist paradox that seems to state assertively that everything is universally relative. You can't do it.

Now they need to fess up on the danger that is the COVID vaccine.
They need to admit that acquired immunity is a real thing and that it wasn't a conspiracy theory in 2021 to say so. They need to allow that questioning the efficacy and safety of a vaccine cooked up, tested, and released for use in the space of nine months was, and still is, a very risky proposition and that people who realized this and refused to be a guinea pig are not kooky conspiracy theorists but are merely "Not naive & Do not trust The Science" for very, very good reasons.

Posted by: Anna Puma at March 17, 2025 03:33 PM (b1S6W) Not to mention the "American" "scientists" who were ferrying virus samples to Wuhan. Anyone who thinks this was China's doing, isn't really paying attention. Posted by: BurtTC at March 17, 2025 03:40 PM (dGCAG) EXACTLY. People keep leaving out this important fact. So even them admitting "they knew" it was a lab leak (forgetting to mention it was likely on purpose) they are still in cover up mode. So why? Seems like a distraction or a way to make the sheeple start questioning the REAL FACTS as they come to light. "That can't be true, the government lies, etc" (this is my guess) Posted by: BonniebBue at March 17, 2025 05:17 PM (+/JiN) 418
230 The question that needs to be asked is why did China, realizing how contagious it was, immediately fly people from Wuhan all over the world? They will find the answer is the Chinese did not want to suffer alone, and if they were going to be affected, they were going to spread it around the world. They should be made to compensate the rest of the world. I'm thinking $37 trillion to the US ought to cover it.

The claim is that western governments all had a hand in the Wuhan lab and wanted to cover that up, and then there was "the political benefit of making Trump look like a conspiracy theorist."
I've believed all along that this was all about getting Trump out of office, and ushering in their boy Obama for a 3rd term...which would not only allow the cover up, but the cover up of so much more criminality that is finally being exposed. THAT was their real worry. Turns out to be a Yuuuuge mistake, as giving Trump 4 years to see clearly the Deep State and plan a second term, while understanding all that he COULD AND SHOULD expose (and hopefully dismantle and prosecute) has led us to this moment. Oh, and Elon... Posted by: UncleJefe at March 17, 2025 06:32 PM (gAuAm) 421
