11 No. I wouldn't do that here.

You people are too wonderful...

12 Speaking of the pope, since he is now an elected official from Chicago, does that mean that it's inevitable that he'll be arrested on federal corruption charges? We'll see how he does, but I'm not a big fan. He's one of the guys that was behind removing the wonderful Bishop Strickland from his post for publicly stating that the church should, I dunno, maybe follow the teachings of Christ.

Yes, and he did a shoddy investigation of SA in Peru. Yeah, I'm aware that Sadat didn't become Nasser II, but I'm pessimistic.

13 If you're a Bishop removed from your post, what do you do? He wasn't excommunicated so can he continue to hold services somewhere, do pastoral counseling, preach, etc?

14 Tool Time - I don't usually enjoy "fail" videos with serious injuries, but every bit in this video cracked me up.

27 What Is The Point Of Having A GOP Congress?

It was on a Joe Dan Gorman Intellectual Froglegs back before the 2016 election that I was forced onto the Trump Train when Joe Dan pointed out that Trump was not the type of person who was into it just to increase his "brand," and would throw the race to Hillary. Light bulb over head. Oh, yeah; duh!

So, I've been going back through old Froglegs episodes trying to find that, watching them at 2X. What's weird is how so much of what we're still fighting was going on then, from Political Correctness to ghei "marriage" to criminal invaders to RINOs. If anything at all has changed, it's only because of Trump.

28 The state of Washington passed a bill, signed into law that makes Catholic priests who hear confessions mandatory reporters. This is clear violation of the sanctity and privacy of confession, or, Reconciliation, as it's now known.

As a Catholic, this could be vert interesting.

Hi Bulg.

Things are moving along. I hope you're well.

We can't be the only people with inheritance stories where people turned crappy. People need to share. I could use a few stories.

For anyone else that wants to share, here's my contribution.

I took care of Mom and Dad for about 15 years after moving back from South Korea. Dad died at 90. Mom passed eight years later, this year at 88.

We had no unexpressed thoughts. I'm still recovering.

Despite taking care of them, I never wanted more than 50% of anything with my brother. But since I was a caregiver---most thankless profession ever---I wanted a year to get my life together, find a job, develop income streams.

He's been making that difficult.

47 What Is The Point Of Having A GOP Congress?

The only point is that a GOP Congress mostly stays out of Trump's way. A Dem one actively impedes him. But that's it. You notice these useless sacks of shite aren't doing anything to implement his EOs legislatively. He has to do it all on his own.

48 Rod Stewart model train adventure is really cool. Thanks for the ONT, WD.

49 Can anybody tell me when the office of Pope Emeritus was established and why the first one was Benedict?

Is there some kind of conclave to pick a Pope Emeritus? And since Catholics claim that their authority is because Jesus told Peter that "on this I will build my church" is there a "Rock Emeritus"?

I'm not Catholic, but Pope Bergerglio seems to have been a fraud by Catholic standards, and the cardinals he put in place are mostly frauds, making this Pope Leo fourteen pretty sus.

50 Hadrian, you are of course correct.
But, having the state, require a priest to call the cops on a penitent is something I'd expect out of the CCP sponsored, "Church".

Well, thank God for that at least. What sickens me as a Catholic is the number of Catholic women I know who are pro abortion, oops, I mean pro choice. I don't know what the hell has happened to Catholic women. I suspect they've been corrupted by the democrat party.

52 I don't understand something. Drone defense - all you need is for the tank to have a dome on top of it. The dome has a radar, and bristles with shotguns. If anything approaches from above, or the sides of the tank, say within 25 feet, it fires a rapid shotgun blast at it. You could have a couple hundred rounds in the shotguns. The drones are low speed, unarmored. The bombs are just motor round for the most part. A single pellet hits the drone and that's it. It either explodes or falls to the ground.

53 Rod Stewart does train modeling and Phil Collins had the largest private collection of Alamo related items ( which I think he has since donated to the organization that runs the Alamo)

54 George Orwell once wrote women are always and inevitably on the side of the state. He wasn't being misogynistic, he was making a psychological observation....

I've heard this described as the "mom and dad" theory of politics. Dad sends you to bed without supper because you didn't do your chores, and mom feels sorry for you and sneaks your favorite meat loaf plus dessert up to your room on a plate.

Posted by: Minuteman at May 08, 2025 10:18 PM (47/pr)

Easy. Popes have always died in office, for the last 600 years. No Pope ever retired. But benedict was old and sick, and decided the church needed more active guidance than he was capable of giving. So, he just said "I retire." Since this never happens, nobody knew what to do. But everyone decided that it wasn't that bad an idea to let Popes quit if they are ill or tired, so they made up the title of Pope Emeritus to cover Benedict.

67 No, not criticizing the birth or the adoption.

As I stated, it is not legally possible for a 13-year old to be "convinced" to carry and give birth nor is it safe or advisable. She should never have conceived.

Making the "child rape exception" a pro-life argument is not a good argument to make.

Again, without specifics we're arguing generalities.

68 Something just tells me that the first American Pope should’ve taken the name “Bud.”

Soldiers need to climb on and off the tank, and willy-nilly spray and pray might get the lead drone, but are you really going to be able to re-load a hundred shotguns in the five minute interval before the next drone comes a creepin'? Plus, the inside of a tank isn't exactly spacious as it is, so finding room for all these extras would be a challenge.

71 Here's the rest of my story...

I'm in the house where I took care of Mom for years. The dog is with me, old, limping, I'm doing my best to keep him going.

It's a big house. Our realtor cousin appraised it at $520,000 to $540,000 Canadian. Which is crazy. It's a big house in a small town but everything in Canada has gone insane.

My brother was fine with $250,000. We'd avoid realtor fees. But after probate cleared, he immediately wanted to come to town to pull money out of the bank. I asked him about the house. He said after talking with friends and the cunt wife, he didn't want to hold a mortgage.

I told him don't come to town, the remaining money in the probate account will stay there until my living situation is resolved.

I was at the lawyer this week. He will now hold a mortgage. I am looking at other options. But since I'm unemployed after being a caregiver for so long, I'd pay more than he wants.

I actually have enough precious metals to pay him off, But gold is on fire and I'd like to keep that. I have enough money to keep me comfortable for a bit while I develop a life.

I didn't expect all this drama after my parents passed.

72 Why so many woman get manipulated into being liberals

Because of a natural tendency to favor authoritarianism, especially if they think they are going to be in charge?
Welcome to what most people really believe.... Until they have been crushed under the boot of despots for generation or three.

73 "It seems to me, armchair general that I am, that we may be at an inflection point in warfare, much as WWI was an inflection point. Drones change everything. Or do they? I think we may be close to being able to deploy mobile, Iron Dome type defensive vehicles, armed with lasers, that completely nullify or severely mitigate, the drone threat. What do y'all think?"


Military history is a never-ending cycle of a dominating new offensive weapon or tactic eventually countered by a new technical defensive measure (i.e., thicker or different armor) or tactic. We are at the mid-point of the latest of these cycles in land warfare. I hope DARPA and smart people in the Army, Marines, and Air Force are on a winning and rapid path to countering the cheap drone and drone swarm threat.

74 San Franpsycho,
I want to know if the rapist was prosecuted. I've always wondered what follow up Planned Parenthood takes when they perform abortions on young girls. Do they bring in law enforcement to investigate and arrest the rapists? Something has to be done so that the perp doesn't keep doing it.

Laser weapons are limited in a lot of ways. The big problem is carrying enough juice for the lasers.

But I can imagine you can screw up laser weapons systems in a lot of ways - reflective paint on the targets or "smoke" bombs that are opaque and/or refractive to the frequency of the laser...

77 That closing meme was a good laugh.

79 Posted by: San Franpsycho at May 08, 2025 10:24 PM (RIvkX)

At 70, I recall a few times when 13 year olds got pregnant and, pre Roe, usually gave up the baby for adoption. A friend married a girl who had a mother that age and grandma raised her. Lovely woman.

80 We don't need Laser armed drone defense... we could do it with .30 or .50 cals... just tied to a radar system...

You know, like the ones we had in the fucking Cold War?

Network platforms together so they constantly shift which platform if actually emitting Radar... then shift that data between platforms for defense.

Or, just do broad beam High power Jamming... all those drones are controlled by someone.

81 Fixing the drone problem is easy.
EMP over enemy space will fry the delicate electronics and generally make life for the enemy suck.

Doing it is the hard thing.

82 I want to know if the rapist was prosecuted. I've always wondered what follow up Planned Parenthood takes when they perform abortions on young girls. Do they bring in law enforcement to investigate and arrest the rapists?

I vaguely recall a law to mandate PP report cases where a girl comes in for an abortion in statutory rape type cases failing in some red state. PP argue that the state was trying to track rape victims to harass them or something and that actually worked.

84 The time of tanks as a primary battlefield weapon might be mostly over.

The Uke war is showing infantry perhaps supported by very cheap and expendable armor are a better choice.

But this cuts against the modern "more money equal more better" philosophy we have in the DoD now.

105 Stateless,

One of my wife's best friends is going through the same thing since her mother died.

The friend has been a practicing attorney, a judge, on state commissions, etc.

Her sister is being so neurotic about the estate, that we have had to go down and visit once and talk the friend back down to a normal blood pressure on the phone twice.

This sister is accusing her of stealing, scheduling an appraiser one day and then cancelling them the next, and then threatening to sue the appraisal company because they have said they won't work with her, etc.

The sister is a loon, and she has almost broken a very tough and smart woman. I think that is because it is her mother's estate. To anyone else acting like that, my wife's friend would just tell them to "get bent".

Good luck getting everything resolved nicely on your end.

I guess my only advice would be, do everything in writing (emails and texts), but don't write anything when you are emotional. Only write it when you are calm and in a good place.

121 I want to know if the rapist was prosecuted. I've always wondered what follow up Planned Parenthood takes when they perform abortions on young girls. Do they bring in law enforcement to investigate and arrest the rapists? Something has to be done so that the perp doesn't keep doing it.

Do a search for "Planned Parenthood reports rapist". My search always comes back with zero results of a local news story where PP helped catch a rapist.

Some of the pro-life groups do perform stings where a 13 y.o. girl goes in with a 35 y.o. man. PP apparently is quite adept at creating situations where no relevant questions are asked, yet the young girl is still scheduled for her abortion.

122 Between Biden hyperflation and the mass influx of immigrants, illegal or otherwise, the prices are up 2X over 4 years ago and 5X over 20 years ago.

In the tax box, I have government records from a few years ago listing the house value at about $200,000. Not that long ago.

It's a small Canadian town.

All of a sudden, $500,000 plus. We had a minor flood damage a couple of years ago and much of the house has been updated, and I'm still cleaning up. But that was crazy...

Can't afford a place to live?

Not entirely. The problem is that "drones" is a REALLY large category. Some of the drones are hobbyist-size with grenades rigged underneath them. Easily taken care of with your shotgun. Some of them are much larger, carrying 250lb bombs and faster - maybe you can knock it down with a shotgun, but it will fall ballistically and might still hit your tank, depending on altitude and how far away you manage to hit it. Then some are actually the size of a small airplane with a lot of explosives packed in them - basically crude cruise missiles. Not so easy to defeat.

Both the people saying "all of warfare has changed!" AND the people saying "oh, please, just shoot them down" are likely wrong.

Hugs to you. I spent years taking care of my parents who were in their nineties. I was better off than you, because I had taken early retirement, and had a pension. And my siblings were appreciative. They helped as much as they could. Taking care of someone that old is a real burden. You basically gave up your freedom.

I'd think widespread use of these things may actually intensify conflict in what might just be a border skirmish. So...

Mom's probate was pretty quick. About 2 months. We are in a smaller Canadian farming community.

After my father passed, we set most things out for quick payment by listing us as beneficiaries. And thanks to Trudeau, money was taken out of the Canadian Stock Market where it could be taken with a few lines of code and put into gold and silver and out of government hands.

My share could buy out my brother but I'd like to keep the gold and just see where I am in the rest of the year.

215 Meanwhile, in Ukraine:
1. Putin's 3 day Victory Day truce seems to be holding up fairly well, even if Ukraine didn't formally agree to it. If nothing else, Ukraine gets a three day respite from missile attacks. Still some fighting going on in several locations.
2. One of the locations is the latest cross-border excursion into Russia in the northeast, where Ukrainian forces are busy capturing a couple of villages and a few potato fields at an appalling cost, apparently for propaganda purposes.
3. In the far south, there are rumors that the Russians have crossed the river and established multiple footholds near Kherson. Big if true.

218 Military science since forever has sought to find the means to deliver the minimal necessary killing force at a fatally-vulnerable location on an enemy soldier, fortification, ship, land vehicle, ship/sub, or aircraft, as quickly, reliably, en-masse, and inexpensively as possible.

228 Hi Stateless. I was in a good spot where I could work from home the couple of years I took care of my dad. And dad had done quit claim deeds. He had three properties, sis got the house and land she's been renting in ND, I got dad's house here on CO. Brother got some farmland in ND. I got stuck being the executor, and it sucks to deal with that crap even with the big stuff pre-handled as my dad had done. The sibs have been fine, but thank god I don't have to deal with their SOs. Bro has insulated me his grasping wife. Sis felt the need to let me know B thought they kind of got screwed. Which by property valuation is true but aint anything I could do about it. I gave sis dad's pickup and more than a third of what was left in his bank acct and we are good at least. Sorry your bro is being a cad. Caregiving is a lonely thing. Suprisingly so, many people have to deal with it at least at the level of picking out a facility, and a lot of folks do the personal care, it seems like there would be all kinds of support groups in person and online but I never found much. Maybe one needs to ask the parents' doctor, I was hobbled there by my distrust after the covid BS.

234 ... women being manipulated into being liberals ...

One of the generations in my family has this issue. Lovely, sweet, smart young ladies have gone round the bend. They are smart but have zero discernment and somehow have no recognition of leftist evil. They passionately believe things that are obviously false and are constantly cultivating fear and outrage. One was saying that she warns all of her hispanic clients to always carry proof of citizenship with them or else Trump will have them kidnapped and deported even though they are citizens. This is especially crazy because I have never seen her express this concern about her hispanic in-laws. Another has undergone surgery to not just tie, but completely remove, her fallopian tubes because Trump is going to deny women access to reproductive health. She almost didn't survive the surgery.

On the other side of the family, the young women are marrying and happily bearing many babies and are enjoying fulfilling lives. There's fear on one side of the family and joy on the other. The difference is stark.

236 Use radar to detect and switch to EMP pulse to destroy with, if possible, the same antenna array. You can switch from wide to narrow beam with a phased array. If you can’t get enough transmitted power that way, use a dedicated antenna fo each task. More importantly use smart profiling. This was what made clearing roadways of IEDs so slow. Radar would give a “hit” for every object, typically a buried, squashed metal can. That is very unlikely to be the IED you’re looking for, but it takes time to clear away the junk buried in the roadbed, so slow. What should you be looking for, not a big, bright, and broad signal like a can, but short leads, switches, some sort of circuitry for a trigger. That’s what you want to find! And you can do it, too, train your system on bright bubbles (sorry sonar analogy) of things like tin cans. Then train your system to ignore those signals (it’s easy just invert everything at input, high signals become low and low signals get amplified - you start finding a lot more IEDs (and lost cell phones, ok) and a lot less metal cans. This can be raised up in the air, and with suitable adjustments made to look for drones, and swat them, quick.

Those "interventions" cause the uterine lining to shed whether the woman has conceived or not, sweeping the embryo out. This kills the embryo, of course.

If a woman has a chance to conceive, her egg has already been released from the ovary by the time the sexual contact has occurred. Those "emergency contraceptives" do not prevent sperm from reaching the egg.

Well. My house was the very embodiment of the California dream. It was my crowning achievement as a man, a provider, and a father. It would have funded my son's future and my very comfortable retirement.

When my wife and I agreed to divorce, I had hopes that I might be able to buy her out with more money than she ever had in her life, and even borrow against it down the road if she needed more. This was an asset that is now valued at over $1M, and we got in at less than half that. I may as well have been explaining quantum physics to her. Nope, she decided to go scorched earth, and my resources were diverted to defending my paternal rights.

I mourn the loss of that place. Last night there, I was looking out of the master bedroom on a dark night and watch a great meteor stream across the sky. I took that as God's promise that He would carry my son and I through this if my faith didn't waiver.

More power to them. That's about 7 miles. There are deeper wells in the Gulf of America, but not necessarily vertical wells.

They quit when the hole kept squeezing in on their tools. At that depth and temperature, the rock is plastic, like clay.

Before you get to liquid magma, you are going to enter a realm where the rock is so plastic it has the consistency of putty, and lithostatic pressure will cause it to close in around the drill bit and trap it. The Russians encountered this in the Kola super-deep well bore. Pumping really cold water-based mud to chill the rock may gain you a couple thousand meters into that realm, but sooner or later you are up against thermal and mechanical limits.

308 >> On Wednesday, reporting surfaced that a cabal of House Republicans is fighting efforts to end the flow of federal taxpayer funds to Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, which also offers harmful chemical and surgical castration procedures. According to NOTUS, this group of lawmakers — which reportedly included Republican Reps. Mike Lawler, Brian Fitzpatrick, and Jen Kiggans — “made it clear to House GOP leadership that they oppose adding a measure to cut federal funding to Planned Parenthood” to the House’s reconciliation package.

Worst political party ever. Trump, just burn it down. Spend the next year amassing evidence of the GOP’s corruption and let it loose.

I can't imagine 5 years. I've been horrible over 2 months. On the plus side, my brother is suffering too. Barely sleeping, like me.

But I'm wondering what happened that dragged on 5 years. And I'm sure some others are sadly wondering.

321 Both my grand mothers had their first babies at 13. Both of those girls had their first kids at 14. There isn't anything inherently unsafe about giving birth at 13, although nowadays there's probably not a 13 year old who is mentally/emotionally ready. But 12 or 13 is the average age of first menses, so the body is fully prepared. The average maybe younger now that obesity rates are so high.

Not here to judge a rape victim for having an abortion, but it's still murder. I certainly understand why; again, no judgment, especially at 13.

327 > But I'm wondering what happened that dragged on 5 years.

In my case, the decedent was known to have a will, whose general provisions were known, but it couldn't be located. Relatives who weren't in the will saw this as their Big Opportunity to cash in. Those who were known to be in the will dragged their feet, in case the will should turn up (understandably, IMO). Fortunately the will DID turn up (among some legal papers belonging to another deceased relative, as it turns out.... perhaps the decedent gave it to him for safekeeping? Unknown). Now, one would think that the relatives who weren't in the will would just accept that fact and move on.

One would assume wrong.

Yours truly is in the middle of all this. I'm not in the will either, and knew I wasn't, but I'm glad, even though I'd have gotten a chunk of money and property if it hadn't.

I'm the one who found the will. No one else knew about it. I had a paper shredder literally right next to me when I found it (I was going through the other deceased relative's papers, disposing of old receipts and such).

The heirs are very lucky I'm the one who found it, not one of the others.

Fundamentals of distinct military academy life, not just teaching and curriculum.

Fear the rot is wide and deep. From the academies, to the brass, to the procurement entities (NAVSEA is an unbelievable disaster), to many, I'm sure, in the ranks. A military often reflects (more/less) the culture and society from which it's drawn. Well.

Question I asked here about a year ago: Do You Think You'll See Nukes Used In Your Lifetime?


Me?

Yes.

352 I've always had a soft spot for the Baloch. Fierce fighters.

I can't remember if they're the ones who have feisty women. One of my brothers was in Afghanistan for several deployments and he talked a little about a specific ethnic group with women who were crazier than the men. Not all the women, but maybe a certain tribe within a larger group. They refused to cover up, and I think some were tattooed. He said the Taliban were afraid of them and left them alone. 🤣

Most modern Nukes are dial a Nuc... depending on how you set the tritium (if I remember correctly)...

So, ya just dial em up.

368 There are several kinds of maintenance issues with nuclear weapons, depending on the particular design. Most common are decay of tritium (used in boosted fission designs), and the effects of heat on circuitry.

I don't think there is any reason to think either India or Pakistan lack the competence or resources to deal with both. These are crown jewel national programs and both countries have plenty of talented engineers.

369 And the US stockpile has issues. Not to mention the delivery systems.

370 You think the US nuclear arsenal is in tip top shape? Probably better than Russia’s. Not sure if Red China’s bombs are at all reliable for multiple reasons. Which is worse: having a reliable nuke and using it or having an unreliable nuke and trying to use it? Not counting all the small arsenals of the littles: India, Pakistan, Israel, Formerly Great Britain, France, etc. My theory is that if you only have a few you are leery of using any, since then you might have to use them all, and then where would you be?

371

375 The tritium in boosted fission weapons is also a safety measure, as there is not enough fissile material to go critical without the added neutrons produced from fusion. So the tritium is only introduced to the core after the warhead is armed or ready for use.

Quick Hits

It's official: The FBI is investigating Letitia James for repeatedly falsifying her financial and real estate records on her mortgage applications.

I hope they hit her with 35 counts of fraud, one for every single signature.

The FBI has opened a formal criminal probe into New York Attorney General Letitia James for alleged mortgage fraud after a request to investigate James was sent to the Department of Justice last month by Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte.

According to a report from the New York Post citing a source familiar with the matter, the investigation into James is being led by US Attorney John Sarcone III, who has been an ally of President Donald Trump.

James allegedly "falsified records" that enabled her to get more favorable loans on a home in Virginia that she purchased in 2023, according to the letter to the DOJ from Pulte.

The referral from Pulte stated, "Based on media reports, Ms. Letitia James has, in multiple instances, falsified bank documents and property records to acquire government backed assistance and loans and more favorable loan terms. This has potentially included 1) falsifying residence status for a Norfolk, Virginia-based home in order to secure a lower mortgage rate and 2) misrepresenting property descriptions to meet stringent requirements for government backed loans and government assistance."

It is delicious that these crimes are almost exactly the same ones she falsely accused Trump of.

Hamas' "University" Columbia actually bothered to arrest the radical terrorists shutting down the school and preventing real students from using it.

Columbia did a better job handling the pro-Hamas activists on campus yesterday than it has previously. In the evening nearly 80 students who had refused to identify themselves were arrested.

...

Hopefully, at some point during booking, the headscarves were removed and mugshots were taken of all of them.

But arrests of leftwing criminals mean nothing in Alvin Bragg's Manhattan. The last time police arrested violent Hamas terrorist kidnappers -- they kidnapped janitors in a Columbia building -- Alvin Bragg dropped charges for 31 of 46 offenders, claiming it would be too difficult to prosecute them.

But there is a Back-Up Plan, if the local Soros prosecutor protects terrorists:

Secretary Marco Rubio
@SecRubio

We are reviewing the visa status of the trespassers and vandals who took over Columbia University's library.

Pro-Hamas thugs are no longer welcome in our great nation.

Trump strikes a trade deal with the UK, opening it -- supposedly -- to imports of US beef.

We'll see if they really do open their markets or if this is another stab-in-the-back from our European "allies." Really our ungrateful bratty dependent Goth teenagers.

The announcement allows the sale of U.S. beef into the U.K. for the first time in decades and ensures an increase in the purchase of Boeing commercial jetliners.

Flanked by Vice President J.D. Vance and on a conference call with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, President Donald Trump announced an agreement "worth billions of dollars" with the U.K. that reconfigures tariff prices on goods, expands the market for American farmers and ranchers, and added a phalanx of Boeing jetliners to that nation's commercial fleet.

The Trump White House called it "a breakthrough" and "a good deal."

The "unprecedented" deal not only includes U.S. tariffs but also a reduction in tariffs by the U.K. The deal introduces a reset of the baseline framework for trade, which will create a $5 billion in exports opportunities for American farmers, ranchers, and other producers can sell into the U.K. That includes beef.

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said that the beef deal with "exponentially" increase the amount of beef that ranchers sell.

Guess who's funding the "grassroots uprising"?

Dozens of lefty groups behind the country's supposedly "grassroots" May Day protests have been largely bankrolled by two billionaires and a dark-money network of progressive nonprofits.

More than $500 million from Swiss billionaire Hansjorg Wyss' organizations, hedge-fund tycoon George Soros' Open Society Foundations and the dark-money Arabella network flowed to the progressive groups between fiscal years 2016 and 2023, according to an analysis shared with The Post.

The funding wasn't intended for the May Day protests per se, but it has been propping up many of the self-styled "grassroots" progressive activist groups over time.

"The hypocrisy of the May Day protests is glaring," said Caitlin Sutherland, executive director of Americans for Public Trust, to The Post.

"These organizations project the illusion of being driven by everyday Americans, but in reality, they're being bankrolled by some of the biggest dark-money megadonors in politics."

Starting Thursday, on May Day, organizers put together more than 1,000 protests across the country to demonstrate against President Trump, activity that spilled into the weekend.

...

The "50501" movement -- or "50 protests, 50 states, 1" effort, an anti-Trump organization that formed in January -- is widely credited for trying to move that international energy into the US by orchestrating the widespread stateside protests last week.

...

About three dozen of the participating groups have raked in about $293.6 million from Wyss' groups, $47 million from the Arabella network and $194.2 million from Soros' Open Society Foundations, according to an assessment reviewed and checked by The Post.

Some of the most prominent left-wing activist groups in the anti-Trump demonstrations last week were the Sunrise Movement, Indivisible and Planned Parenthood.

...

Because of his Swiss citizenship, Wyss, 89, is precluded from donating to US political candidates. But he has emerged as a top backer of lefty causes in America nonetheless, by pumping cash into dark-money groups.

DRUMPF!!! is pushing that dangerous racist school choice policy. The policy that is good for students and parents, but which is objected to by the teachers unions because it would force them to allow their worst-performing teachers to be fired.

BREAKING: The Department of Education just released guidance on school choice options for kids stuck in "persistently dangerous" public schools.

States must establish a list of "persistently dangerous" schools.

Districts MUST provide a school choice option for these kids

The Elementary and Secondary Education Act requires states to provide school choice options for kids:

* In "persistently dangerous" schools

* Victims of violent criminal offenses at school

This is the absolute stupidity that Trump's cabinet has to deal with.

This NY Democrat can barely speak English, has to be fed questions to ask by her staffer, and tries to imply that she deserves to know critical tariff negotiation details.
