----- What are ya drinkin' today, lads and lassies? Want something other than green beer or Guinness (or my preferred Irish stout - Murphy's)? The ONT has you covered! 32 St. Patrick’s Day Cocktails To Bring You Extra Luck This Year
St. Patrick's Day is all about the booze. So why not make a cocktail that will be sure to impress? Even if you're avoiding the bar crawl (we totally get it), you can still have a little fun with your drinks at home. This holiday is all about the drinks, so don’t let it pass by without jazzing up what you’re imbibing (even if it's just adding a little green to your beer). Lucky you, we’ve got everything from bright green cocktails to boozy milkshakes. Check out the list of our favorite St. Patrick’s Day drinks to get some inspiration (and likely feel the luck of the Irish as well). And who knows, you just might find a pot of gold (or a Gold Rush cocktail) at the end of the rainbow!Check out the link and let us know which one is yer favorite! ----- Kewl Solar System Stuff

----- To our Rocky Mountain Hordelings -- be careful out there! 5 Most Rattlesnake Infested Areas in The Rockies
Running all the way from Canada to the northern section of New Mexico, the Rocky Mountains support a vast array of ecosystems from deserts to prairies to cold alpine slopes. The most common species you'll find here are the prairie rattlesnake and western rattlesnake. Towards the New Mexico region, you might also find the large Western diamondback rattlesnake, or the small mottled rock rattlesnake, or the massausaga rattlesnake in southeastern Colorado. These rattlesnakes play a key role in their ecosystems by keeping certain pest populations like mice under control and preventing prairie dogs from overpopulating the land. In the vast majority of cases, these snakes will ignore humans or use their rattles to warn humans to stay away. However, if a person ignores these warnings or accidentally steps on them, it can lead to a bad bite. If left untreated, many of these rattlesnakes are capable of killing a human with their venom. The best way to prevent this from happening is simply being aware of where you might encounter rattlesnakes. Here are 5 of the most rattlesnake-infested areas in the Rockies to be on the lookout for them.

Saturn, for instance, seems to be rotating faster than Jupiter, but it has a longer day.
Could be an optical illusion, I guess.
Mars also has a typo.

Joe Kent resigning made today a bit interesting. C2 Underground has been trending more and more towards the "This is BAD" (subtly) on his YouTube missives lately. He's good (I think) but it's become more overt. Also Fine. But today he made the Joe Kent thing some huge deal and that Kent was a major player in all of this so him resigning means things are bad etc. No mention of his new wife and her entanglements but whatever.
Just interesting what value people place on stuff like this.

I called home, asking my mom, "Did you and dad send me flowers for St. Patrick's day?" "Yes." No other explanation. This new tradition continued for the rest of my undergraduate and graduate school years, and then stopped abruptly, never to occur again. It was the weirdest, and longest, prank my parents ever pulled on me. To be fair, though, I'm not Irish.

There is nothing creepier than an abandoned hospital. I had the keys to one, while I worked on the plans for demolishing it, and had to walk through it several times. Thankfully, it was only a single storey building with just one basement level. I only went there during daylight hours and was greatly relieved when it was turned into just an open pit in a field.

True story. When I moved to PR a buddy and I decided we would drive to FL and visit his brother who lived on a boat in West Palm Beach and then fly from there. Back then you could get a free ride to FL by delivering a car for a snowbird. You didn't get paid but gas was free.
We got a yellow Lincoln Continental. Total pimp mobile. It had an FM stereo and we were constantly flipping stations along I-95 when the local signal would die. We heard Free Bird over 20 times from Boston to WPB in 3 days. No matter where we were it followed us. Couldn't listen to the song for years after that.

I was born in the Navy Hospital at Camp Lejeune, NC. I suppose that it still is there. Dad was learning to fly at an airfield near Kinston through a firm named Stallings, which, come to think of it, is not a good name for a flight instruction firm. I don't know about my sister's birthing place around Houston (Dad was still in the Air Force).
The place where my two brothers were born was converted into a veterans' facility in my hometown.

I once had dinner at a place in San Fran called Poppleton's that was too good to last. I was intrigued by the "Tangerine Gimlet" on the cocktail menu and ordered it. It was then, for the first time, that I understood the artistry of a great bartender. The drink was so delicious and beautiful, cold and satisfying and fresh -- that was fresh tangerine juice, I kid you not -- I measure that drink against all others everywhere, and I've never found its equal.
I once googled up the dead Poppleton's but I couldn't find out anything about the bartender. I'd follow that person to the ends of the earth.

True story. When I moved to PR a buddy and I decided we would drive to FL and visit his brother who lived on a boat in West Palm Beach and then fly from there. Back then you could get a free ride to FL by delivering a car for a snowbird. You didn't get paid but gas was free.
We got a yellow Lincoln Continental. Total pimp mobile. It had an FM stereo and we were constantly flipping stations along I-95 when the local signal would die. We heard Free Bird over 20 times from Boston to WPB in 3 days. No matter where we were it followed us. Couldn't listen to the song for years after that.
Posted by: JackStraw at March 17, 2026 10:46 PM (viF8m)
I made several vacation break drives from college in upstate NY to my parents house just south of WPB in the late '70's with the same snowbird deal. Except I had to pay my own gas. I would do it in about 28 hours straight with the 55 mph speed limits.
One trip the song Native New Yorker from Odyssey followed me all the way down until near dawn outside Savanna where WABC faded out into Farm Reports and late night preachers.....

Minesweepers used to be built of wood, so as not to detonate magnetically-triggered mines. I expect there is a much better way now to deal with such mines, so the old wooden hulled minesweepers are obsolete.

What he’s saying isn’t true. The decommissioned ships had wooden hulls but were well beyond their expected service lifetime. The replacements use standoff technology to locate and disable/detonate mines, and thus are at far less risk of being damaged.
Posted by: Tom Servo at March 17, 2026 11:43 PM (Li94Y)
Just not true. Two years ago the Mets closer, Edwin Diaz, blew out his knee at the WBC and missed the entire season. The owners have a lot of say in what players can do because they are paying them astronomical amounts of money.
Even the reporting tonight talked a lot about the large number of big stars playing for the US at the WBC because in the past a lot of them didn't play. Even the pitchers that did pitch were all on team mandated pitch counts. And this is pre-season. I don't see the owners being this generous in the middle of the season but we'll see.

It would be nice, but it's a global market. If they can't get oil from Iran, they'll start buying it from the places we get it, and drive the prices up.

Iran is pretty much depleted of ships that can lay the large numbers of mines needed to make an effect minefield. The Strait is 25 miles across, and it's basically an American lake now. Any vessel setting out from port in iran is going to get the hairy eyeball, or simply be sunk on suspicion.

I still have to do mine. State and Federal! Thankful there's no city or county tax but I think it's a matter of time. I've been dreading it! It's much harder now that I have to calculate where I am financially every quarter and figure out if I'm having enough withheld from the various pensions and social security and what not.
Plus I have to remember to pay for the supplemental medical and dental insurance.
I usually do TurboTax. And pay extra for the audit support.
Just thinking about it makes me want to retreat to the bedroom and draw the blinds...

Most people around me have dogs though, so I'm always around them. The one shop I work out of has a dog, so I'm around that one a lot. The dude that lives next to the shop pops in a lot with his dog when they are out walking. Another shop I occasionally work out of has a dog. I'm dogged out by the end of the day, in a good way.

The old Nawlins "Yat" dialect sounded like Brooklynese, generated by some of the same factors (e.g., a port, mixing of Irish and German with other speech flavors).

I think they overpaid for D.J. Moore. Waddle would have been great, paired with Josh Allen.
But I did feel McDermott had to go. It was time. Beane should have been fired too. But McD's run was over. Definition of insanity and all that.
I think it just killed Terry Pegula to watch New England go to the Super Bowl with a first-year coach and made him say how long am I sticking with this guy?

If Mr Tea has contacts in the industry and can get an interview, this can work to his advantage. “Hey, look. I’m one of the guys who messed up. This is why it’s important. This is why I will never make that mistake again and this is how I will encourage everyone around me to follow protocol. Down to the details.”

I, personally, prefer Jameson... in the bottom class. When you move up the age (and price) ladder, Bushmill Black is superior.
Both brands are owned by the same corporation, but the Bushmill distillery is located outside Belfast, in Northern Ireland, part of the UK, while the Jameson distillery is in the Genuine Mickey Republic of Eire.

You will both have to get thru some anger and sadness and even guilt. Try to balance expectations with reality because it will take time for Mr.Tea to adjust to being unemployment first, and then to start from scratch applying for a (jobs) again.
If you can, be the one certainty he has right now , stick to a schedule and still allow yourselves something you enjoy that takes the weight off, so you can smile and be happy in between the hard times.

Being 29 and unemployed, I feel no need to risk my life to save 15 seconds or accommodate other drivers. I seem to have found that sweet spot in merging into traffic circles in which some other drivers feel I'm too aggressive and others that I'm not aggressive enough. (This supports my theory that people are assholes.) I sometimes respond to their beeps by beeping back shave and a haircut two bits. I suppose I could use Morse code to beep "f*ck you" but I'm not sure they'd understand.

And unless you're going to replace the cows with nothing at all, I bet the farm equipment you'll use to grow crops on the pastureland uses petroleum.

Finding good sources is hard which is why the mainstream media could lie and cheat with abandon for decades. No one much called them out on it.
I use triangulation techniques myself as that is about the best one can do in a fast changing and uncertain news atmosphere where you know you are only getting about a 1/3 or less of the truth from any one source.
Common sense helps for example Kent's resignation right before Patel and his boss Tulsi go to testify before Congress over election tampering by foreign powers.
Tells me that Kent is a shitbird along with his inconsistent Libertarian 2012-19--Democrat from 2019-2021, then GOP from 2022-26. Plus his remarriage to a woman working for Max Blumenthal on "The Grayzone". Max is a son of Sid "Vicious" Blumenthal who was key Clinton badguy in all sorts of evil disinfo and lying ops for them.

As someone who has spent a long time dealing with a lot of info, the amount of brilliant commentary that is well informed by everyone from top docs, diplomats, staffers, lawyers, scientists, mechanics, inventors, etc. to actual rocket scientists is what distinguishes this blog from the others that have gradually fallen away over time. And this has been consistent since the Second Gulf War.
Rare but the commenter signal here is much stronger than the noise compared to other sources including X.

Being 29 and unemployed, I feel no need to risk my life to save 15 seconds or accommodate other drivers. I seem to have found that sweet spot in merging into traffic circles in which some other drivers feel I'm too aggressive and others that I'm not aggressive enough. (This supports my theory that people are assholes.) I sometimes respond to their beeps by beeping back shave and a haircut two bits. I suppose I could use Morse code to beep "f*ck you" but I'm not sure they'd understand.

Not being physically around the opposite sex is part of it too. Porn and then Tinder is a poor substitute...but that's what the current gen seems to be using. Plus Filters and TikTok/Instagram are really inflating expectations. So hot guys are getting ALL the tail and normal guys are left in the cold, masturbating on the internet alone.

No joke. When I first got my office as a junior faculty, I was situated in the English Dept. Unbeknownst to me, they were engaged in a Civil War between the Lit Analysis crowd that wanted to teach their weird little subspecialities and the English Comp faculty that had to teach basic English I and II composition.
Nasty dirty little civil war in that department as a result and I stayed in that office for about three years. For me it was great as I had a parking lot right outside my office.

Quick Hits
Members of antifa are threatening to kill the wife of the judge who is about to sentence the nine terrorists who attacked police at the Prairieland ICE station.
Members of Antifa have threatened violence and accused the wife of a judge of being a fan of "white supremacist" Charlie Kirk in the wake of nine members of the militant far-left group being found guilty of various charges, including terrorism-related charges, on Friday. In the wake of Kirk's September killing during a Utah campus stop, US District Judge Mark Pittman's wife wrote, "Keep spreading the Good news, Bishop. The world needs it more than ever. Come, Lord Jesus, Come!" An Antifa member screenshotted her Facebook post and posted it to X, writing that Pittman's wife "is a big fan of white supremacist Charlie Kirk."Evidence of that? She said it was sad that an innocent man had been shot in the throat in front of his children. So, you know: White supremacist.
Nine total members of a North Texas Antifa cell were convicted on various charges on Friday for an attack on a Texas ICE detention facility in July in which an officer was shot. Eight of the nine defendants were found guilty of providing material support to terrorists. Additional charges the defendants were found guilty of include rioting, use of an explosive device, and attempted murder."Protect Trans Kids," huh?
Tony Shaffer 🇺🇲☢️That post links this article from Revolver News. I saw Chris Murphy crying about some of these rogue FBI agents who got fired, claiming that they were key "counter-terrorism" agents and their firing might have caused the four (4!) Muslim terrorist attacks in the last two weeks. Well explain this to me then, Chris: If they were so critical to hunting down terrorists, why were they considered superfluous enough that they could be detailed to searching Melania Trump's underwear drawers? Is this real? I think so but I'm not sure: An Iranian plays the sound of a drone over his boombox, and Basij street thugs go running. I tend to think it's fake just because, well, they'd shoot you for that. They're shooting machine guns blindly into people's apartments just for singing and dancing.
@tspooky The @FBI used over 40% of its foreign counter intelligence division's budget on targeting @realDonaldTrump and his associates in 2016 and 2017 - people need to go to jail...
Matt Van SwolMurkowski voted "Nay," of course.
@mattvanswol 🚨#BREAKING: North Carolina Senator, Thom Tillis COMPLETELY MISSED THE VOTE on the motion to move forward the SAVE Act. He didn't show up. Absolutely unbelievable.
All of the left is mourning the passing of Austere Religious Scholar Ali Larijani. They are all working from the script provided to them by, I assume, Iran Echo Chamber conductor Ben Rhodes -- this man who ordered the massacre of 30-40,000 Iranians last month alone was "a moderate" who you could "do business with" and now that he's dead, Trump has no "off-ramp" from his disastrous war which he's totally losing.
Like clockwork, BBC airs a glowing eulogy of Ali Larijani.
— The Persian Jewess (@persianjewess) March 17, 2026
Larijani oversaw the massacre of tens of thousands of Free Iran protesters just two months ago.
But BBC calls him “moderate” and “a man you could maybe do business with.”
Absolute trash.

In 2012 Nicholas Kristof took his kids on a road trip across Iran, along a route set by the Iranian regime. Then he wrote columns about it whitewashing the regime. Now he's praising Larijani, who threatened to murder President Trump, as "strong and pragmatic leader." https://t.co/Hn9t36KB87 pic.twitter.com/wdTIjLRZcr

I haven't checked since I retired, but for a long time suicides regularly exceeded the casualty totals in Iraq and Afghanistan combined. It was a huge problem. Given how recruitment is soaring and the warm soothing glow of victory after victory, I think that problem may have abated somewhat.

From the tiny url I put upthread, it is about 300 per year by accident and somewhat over that for suicides. Combat deaths from 2013-2022 did not go above 91 and on average was in the 20's and actually lower than (crime) homicides as a cause of death.

The frequent tours, the fact that there was no end in sight and then the way Iraq sputtered out and Afghanistan was a debacle was crushing.
And then we got happy, hippie-type messages from command telling us to work through our feelings which only added to incandescent levels of rage at how we had wasted our lives for NOTHING. I never deployed to a combat zone (though the airport shuttle to Ramstein was shot up after I went back home) nor did I hear a shot in anger, but I know people who were messed up and lost friends. And then to lose...it was hard.
Thumping Iran is like a healing balm.

Very salty and fatty, and there really no discerning when it loses an edible texture. Dinty Moore Beef Stew is another easy storage food that lasts forever. Tuna, too.

The government won on most of its charges, including convicting defendants for moving a box of radical zines.
If trump can start arresting ppl and calling them enemies of the state, he can arrest anyone, anytime. And that's exactly what Hitler ended up doing.
Women couldn’t vote 100 years ago and Black people couldn’t move freely about the country until just over 50 years ago. We’ve never been as free as we’ve been led to believe.
This was all made legal by the NDAA under Obama. Trump can personally declare anyone a terrorist and have you assassinated. The trials are just for terrifying others into compliance. He stepped right into the perfect situation to be a dictator.
This is an absolutely chilling moment for free speech & expression in the United States and shows how the Trump administration is ramping up its persecution of leftists, seemingly trying to head us into a Third Red Scare.
Don't be ridiculous. There was strong evidence of terrorism like... *checks notes* ...using the signal app?
Yeah we're fucked. Hope this gets overturned.

But even before the fall-fall, or the abandonment of the British province, Brittany (or Armorica) had been abandoned to 'bandits' -- Bagaudae usually described as peasant insurgents by historians who thing this is the middle ages or something.

Iran is shut down. As time goes on, it will take less and less effort to keep it shut. We own the sky and the sea. We own the cyberwarfare. We can shut off their power at will. No imports or exports. No money at all.
Look at Venezuela and Cuba - after a bit of bluster - 4-5 weeks, they realized they are dead if they don't get an agreement. An agreement on our terms.

There is necessarily a lag between identifying the networks and rolling them up, just as it takes time to bring a federal case and see it through. As reports of these people getting hard time spread, enthusiasm will drop. Loss of funding will also be crippling.
The Tesla thing ended very quickly in part because it was actual normies who thought they could get away with it and as soon as they found out, it stopped. Antifa is "professional" insofar as they are getting paid to do it, so minor stints in jail don't bother them as they already have criminal records for sex crimes, domestic violence, etc.
That is the primary recruiting pool, but even those clowns don't want to get 20 years for the cause.

It remains a myth on the left, despite no one ever providing any proof, that there were (are) "sundown towns" in the US.
Towns where blacks would have to fear for their lives if caught there after dark.
No, we're not talking some random no-zip code, "population: 5" hamlet--we're talking full service 5k to 10k towns.
It is the American version of the "mass Indian children graves" in Canada.

Trump is losing, for the following simple reasons:
1) The stated goal was regime change. This will not succeed. A ground invasion will not happen, which would be the only way it could conceivably happen. No matter how much of its leadership the U.S. and Israel assassinates, Iran will not stop fighting, and has indeed been hardened into fighting more.
2) The Hormuz Straight remains closed to the U.S. and its allies. There is no realistic way to change this. Trump already has given the world embarrassing optics of begging NATO allies to come be cannon fodder for such an operation. They are, quite understandably, declining to do so, since they did not choose to fight a war of choice for Israel's benefit.
Polling on support for the Iran War is well underwater, an average of 38% Approve, 49% Disapprove. It will only get more unpopular as gas prices continue to rise, causing the price of everything else to rise. Iran does not need to defeat the U.S. militarily. It just has to continue the economic chokehold until continuing the conflict becomes untenable.
Posted by: Israel Is Always Right at March 17, 2026 07:45 PM (Xkc2j)
It was already very likely the Democrats were going to take the House, as of the State of the Union. Trump has made that a certainty barring some earth-shattering miracle. The Senate is now likely in play. Trump has thrown away his Presidency for a gambit that did not pay off. In addition, no one will negotiate with the U.S. going forward for fear of it being used as cover for assassinations, and no one will fear the U.S. since Iran will have stared the United States down and won. This is the United States' Suez Canal incident. Its inability to project power in a world of asymmetric warfare is plain to see.
It did not have to be this way. I voted for the guy who wanted to secure the border, lower prices, and not do any more foreign wars. But, as Joe Kent noted, the Israeli lobby gets what it wants, not the voters. So it goes.

The GOP will hold the Senate and will probably gain a seat or two.
The House right now will probably be R+5. The dem polling margins have been roughly averaging D+3 - that is not enough to win. If SCOTUS rules as everyone expects on the VRA the dems automatically lose 5-10 seats.
The oil business will be settled very quickly, everyone knew they would do this. Trump now has his pretext to formally get out of NATO if he wishes. Europe was forced to confront that even if they wanted to, they can do nothing.
It's all the economy - always was and always will be. Iran is a blip. If the macro trends continue to strengthen the democrats have absolutely nothing to run on. Oh - and you didn't vote for Trump.

Me-Again Kelly Demands to Know Why Online Influencers Aren't Defending Her Against Mark Levin's "Disgusting" Attacks
If that sounds insane to you, that means you're paying attention.
Cavernous Nostrils has been smearing Erika Kirk since a week after his murder, claiming that she was "covering up" for The Real Killers, who she has alleged at various times to be Israelis, Mormon Bee Cultists, French Intelligence, Egyptian Planes, US military personnel, etc. Lately Cavernous Nostrils has changed her attacks on Erika Kirk, now claiming she was associates with Jeffrey Epstein and groomed children for sex trafficking. When Me-Again Kelly was asked to say something about this absolute demonic horrorshow, Me-Again responded: "I'm not the mom of the internet.' But she thinks it's "disgusting" that Mark Levin routinely calls her "Granny Groyper" --like many women, and many men too (guilty!) she does not like it being noted that she is old enough to be a grandparent -- she has been demanding that various online personalities condemn Levin for "stalking" her. Here's just one example of Me-Again -- who, I repeat, said it was none of her business if Candace Owens accused Erika Kirk of arranging for her husband's murder because she's not "the mom of the internet" -- demanding that men gather 'round her to protect her from Levin's "disgusting" attacks:
Aɴᴛ
@AntSpeaks It's extraordinary how Megyn is now asking everyone around her why they didn't speak up when Mark Levin supposedly attacked her. The same woman who has made a conscious effort to ignore all the insults and accusations Candace has made against Erika Kirk over the last six months. She even went so far as to claim she had gotten close to Candace and supported her in "questioning Israel." I use this comparison a lot, but it's nevertheless accurate.. Megyn is a prime example of a stupid person who desperately believes they're smart. She was convinced she had outwitted everyone, that she was in the right, and that most would side with her. Now it's come back to bite her in the ass.
Is it just me, or....?

She means that Levin says she's a 14-year-old mean girl trapped in the botoxed body of a 55-year-old woman. And that she's a Nazi. As she did when she first learned to curse, she then went on to say "micropenis, micropenis, micropenis" over and over again, to show how Young and Brat she is. Here's the "disgusting" and "lewd" attack that provoked Me-Again into devolving back into her 14-year-old mean girl self. Does this sound "lewd" or "disgusting" to you?
Megyn Kelly
@megynkelly Micropenis Mark @marklevinshow thinks he has the monopoly on lewd. He tweets about me obsessively in the crudest, nastiest terms possible. Literally more than some stalkers I've had arrested. He doesn't like it when women like me fight back. Bc of his micropenis.

was it Kimerly Kacik or something ?

Remember when shitbag mcgee said she “had blood coming from her mouth, coming from her whatever.” Now she blows him eternally! Imagine blowing someone who shit on you. Lmao
There's a reason NBC paid her $30 million just to leave.
Why is there so much hate for kelly? Levin literally works for israel and kelly is exposing that, if anyone is paying attention.
I get the feeling she was molested as a child. That explains the acting out and psychotic break she suffered since tRump the pedophile took office.
Knowing her history, there is a non zero chance she knows his dick size for a fact, but I am curious if it’s not his micro but her cavernous vagina.
If you've ever heard Levin in one of his stark raving lunatic rants on his radio show you would know exactly how micro his penis is without ever having to actually know details.

The fire itself was probably extinguished within 20 minutes. The rest of the time was likely the extra men assigned to stand guard and observe for re-ignition. The guard time was probably counted and reported as part of the firefighting watch.

There was a video with a bunch of female porn people a while back where they were asked how much a guy needed and the consensus was that 6 inches is plenty. Anything more is for them, not her.
Obviously, they could have been lying and YMMV but there it is.

The actual answer to this is... when dating apps became a thing.
There's actual data about how the "You must be 6' to ride this ride" is a purely US-based phenomenon, because the rest of the world uses centimeters and there's no bright delimiting line in height when you're counting in Faggot Units, so women in other parts of the world don't immediately swipe left on men that are 5'11" (whatever that is in Faggot Units).

Neither fame nor money turn you into a monster.
Keanu Reeves is widely known to be a genuinely nice guy. Trump is pretty nice to people who aren't trying to fuck him over.
What having money and fame does is it makes monsters think that they don't have to hide anymore. Sadly, in modern US society, they may be right.

Zionist "was" used by only the most ridiculous Jew haters on dark corners of the internet for a long time but now the Left has given the order to mainstream it so now it's fine.
Yes it has a meaning but honestly the only confusion is the fact that the Left now wants everyone to use it because they want their muslim friends to know that their Jew hate was always real (spoiler: it was).

Klacik's now ex husband ran the Baltimore strip club apparently. You can find the lawsuit on X and the settlement.
Plus Owens long history of psychological pathology in lying and targeting individuals for gain since being a teen in high school.
And that degenerate Milo has thrown in with Candace despite less than a year ago declaring that Candace's husband was hitting on him and that she was a pos.
And yes, junior high stuff which strangely attracts lots of emo crap from supplicants. I resisted going on X for a long time because even discussion boards are bad enough nowadays. X demonstrates why the Lord flooded the earth way back when. Lots of viciousness. But yet, some useful information unavailable anywhere else.

Dating apps. Your height is prominently displayed.
Posted by: Elric the Blade a
The guys running OK Cupid did a post on this years ago. The average guy on their site was 2+" taller than the average guy in America, and the curve wasn't the expected bell curve; it flattened out at the top.
In short (swidt?), the short guys added an inch or so to their height, but guys who were anywhere near 6' IRL must have listed themselves as 6'+.
There were as many 6'1" guys on the site as 5'9" guys, which just ain't how it is in America at large.

In this video he examines the "Woke Right" and explains why men of his generation are going that way.
It's a really insghtful video essay:
https://youtu.be/FTN_ZPwlmKg
I don't agree with the kid on everything, he was a flat-earher at one point, but he is fairly knowledgeable about history, culture, and social trends, and I think he nails this vid.
His basic point is that right-wing Gen Z men are play acting Nazis because the people who have tortured them through Woke/DEI their entire lives hate the Nazis so they act Nazi even though they're mostly clueless as to what the Nazis actually were.

Anna, you can do with older hardware if you use Linux. And the new Macs have the specs and performance to VLOG if you want.
Forget the fastest processor as much as get as much memory as you can and the higher the resolution, the greater need for bandwidth if doing live, and good encoding and decoding performance from your vid card.
And a good 5000 series or the AMD 9000 series vid cards can fix up an older CPU to vlog if you want if that CPU has 32 gig of memory and fast M2 SSD storage instead of the older disk or SATA III SSD.
If you plan to do AI video, then the sky is the limit--that requires serious hardware right now to look decent with acceptable frame rates or you do the online account thing and pay for a subscription.

Anna, excellent price but there is some budget stuff included and that line of Intel chips I think had some problems. There could also be troubles if you need to upgrade the power supply, and the cooling in particular may also be cheap. I would personally avoid something in this range - you get what you pay for. It's a refurb of a "budget" line of PC. It's a great deal and a trusted refurb but I would expect to pay a few hundred more for that kind of horse, and for what you want. I do generally like refurbs.

Among the assholes, "Zionist" came into common use because saying that you hated Joos had become an unacceptable term in public after 1945. So sophisticated antisemites could say that they hated "Zionists", but didn't have anything against "the Jews".

The IDF confirms killing Basij paramilitary force commander Gholamreza Soleimani in a strike in Iran overnight. Soleimani was targeted while at a tent camp that was recently established by the Basij. According to the IDF, the Basij set up the camp after the military struck many of the headquarters of the paramilitary force. In addition, the strike also killed the deputy commander of the Basij and other top officials in the paramilitary force, the IDF says. Basij commander Gholamreza Soleimani in an undated photo (Social Media) The IDF confirms killing Basij paramilitary force commander Gholamreza Soleimani in a strike in Iran overnight. Soleimani was targeted while at a tent camp that was recently established by the Basij. According to the IDF, the Basij set up the camp after the military struck many of the headquarters of the paramilitary force. In addition, the strike also killed the deputy commander of the Basij and other top officials in the paramilitary force, the IDF says.
The Basij is known for its role in violently suppressing anti-regime protests, and is believed to be responsible for countless deaths of Iranian civilians. Meanwhile, top Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader Akram al-Ajouri and other top officials in the terror group were targeted by the IDF in a strike on Wednesday, according to the military. The military believes al-Ajouri was likely killed in the strike, but says it is still working to confirm this.
IRGC commanders are also deployed in southern Lebanon to direct Iran's proxy army Hezballah. As America's Sweetheart Ilhan "Omar" Nur would say, some people hit some buildings.
🚨 IRGC commanders booked 15 hotel rooms thinking they were safe, they weren’t.

But then it became clear he was clickwhore who was just telling me whatever I wanted to hear, a service that I did not need, because I can tell myself whatever I want to hear, and I'm smarter than Tim Pool and I don't (yet) need to wear a beanie 24/7/365.

So if you are a low info type of person... and leave the default... you see MSN.com 'newspage'.
Which is so totally biased it does not even funny. It's Algorithm puts up blatant political propaganda articles portraying them as hard news.
And by default... this is what people will see. No way it does not influence the politically unaware.

The default at youtube is leftist also. Unless you know what you're looking for in order to break out of the bubble, it's there. Cloying. Suffocating. A suspicious person might think it was on purpose.

He makes all the other CNN talking heads look like idiots every time his numbers prove the talking heads are stupid, liars, or more.
Yet, the next day he again returns with some new positive Trump poll results, and the CNN'ers look stupid again. I know, a low bar, but....

Enten wants to keep his job after the Ellison Paramount takeover of Warner Brothers, parent company of CNN. Same reason that MSNBC used to have better political polling compared to Faux. Faux has sucked at political polling since the Obama era and on purpose probably.

yes, "Tuesday’s 51-48 vote cleared the way for debate in the chamber and required only a simple majority. Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, was the lone Republican to join all Democrats in voting against the measure. Sen.

Frankly most of the alternative conservative media had the problem of being willing to say anything which is compared with the rest of the conservative media that was unwilling to say bad things about the Chamber of Commerce GOP that was selling the US to foreigners.
We need a happy medium and at least by flaming off the shysters of the alt reich right, the better and more sober types are being sought out by informed consumers of news. The others like Candace Ovens are like the Rando Housewives of X reality show where faux drama and faux outrage is being sold to pig ignorant, devoid of logic, audiences for keks.

Debate. The SAVE act was brought up under a privileged message from the House and now debate on the issue has begun. We shall see what other procedural matters are raised along with amendments. Reportedly Thune is filling the tree with amendments so there is a votorama on those but not an unlimited free for all.
Cloture, either by changing the rules, Democrats crumble, or by exhaustion of all speakers (the talking filibuster) is the question as the SAVE act has the majority votes but short of the 60 for quick cloture to end debate and vote on the measure.
It may take up to 2-3 months depending on the Senate schedule for exhaustion and how many Dems want to actually speak. Meanwhile, it freezes those senators to have to stay in DC while it is going on.

It’s more accurate since it’s binary. You did or didn’t vote for him. Defining maga Republican is more subjective.
Of course people will lie to pollsters either way. But if we assume the lies ratio is equal across the board, asking a binary question is a better indicator than one open to interpretation by the person who is asked.

As predicted, the mullahs and the IRGC are at each other's throats.
IRAN IN CHAOS: PRESIDENT WANTS OUT
"There’s a real upheaval in Iran... President Pezeshkian is considering resigning from his post."
Channel 14's Senior Iran Analyst @DBalazada
explains what inside sources tell him is happening today inside the government:
Pezeshkian is reportedly "exceptionally angry" at the Revolutionary Guards, accusing them of "reckless" conduct. He claims the failure to protect Ali Larijani was not negligence, but a deliberate move to ensure his elimination.
The IRGC is reportedly "very pleased" with Larijani’s death, having already prepared an "elimination dossier" on him and his brother.
The bottom line - Iran is transitioning into an extremist military regime where Mojtaba Khamenei acts as a mere "puppet" of the Revolutionary Guards, who completely control the country.

The good ones often are written only on X without the bug eyed video delivery from too many podcasters.
I prefer written news and analysis because it is far less tedious to pick out problematic assertions, factual inaccuracies, and jumps of logic that are often employed by carny media types.
I also read far faster than I can listen to spoken blather, mugging at the camera, etc.
If analysis requires video, stills,etc. as evidence, then worthwhile, otherwise just to hear someone ranting is worthless to me. Same usually for talk radio. Rush was fine as he was entertaining as well as factual when alternative sources were scarce. Hannity, awful and robotic. Levin is a smart guy from his books but you wouldn't know that from his radio show Old Yeller persona. Savage weirdly enough was like Art Bell, strange but also entertaining at times even with just weirdness.

But he said that’s not the interesting statistic. He said of the subset of scum bags he takes down for sexual assaults (esp young girls like 12-14), 80-85% are Hispanic-central and South American. He said they have zero boundaries with young girls.
So this story (as well as many others) is so unsurprising since “the youth” was Central American.

Out of a loosely defined movement of millions of people, it should be easy to find dozens, even hundreds or thousands of people who decide that their mental version of MAGA pre-2025 is now not becoming a reality for whatever reason.
Who genuinely thought that, say, Trump was all about crushing a specific regulation on the running of waterways through commercial properties that hasn't been repealed and that's why MAGA is falling apart now. And then they say it's because of wars or something and YouTube's algo promotes them.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea on Saturday fired about 10 ballistic missiles toward the eastern sea, South Korea's military said, staging its own show of force as the rival South conducts a joint military exercise with the United States.
South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said the missiles were fired from an area in Sunan, the site of Pyongyang's international airport, and flew about 350 kilometers (220 miles).

I was never hugely worried about China as trade advantages can be rolled back as long as the rest of the world doesn't deindustrialize like the globalists wanted us to do. In terms of projecting military power their lack of land routes and sea power make it hard to get far. We and Japan both had a hell of a time even getting at each other in WWII.

The poster is right, but not in the way they think. By making the opposition party 100 percent insane, the MSM discredited themselves and make it impossible for them to rule the country for very long if they do cheat to get in. We were provoking nuclear war within a few months of Biden taking office.

It's a fair question since "sexual assault" has been defined to include everything from catcalling and wolf-whistling to an "unwanted approach" in a club or bar.
Posted by: Real SA
If sexual assault and sexual battery are defined the same way as the non-sexual versions, that's probably true.
Assault is when I get in your face and yell at you.
If I poke you in the chest with an index finger to emphasize my point, it's battery.

Illegal Alien 19-Year-Old High School Student Keeps Groping Girls As Young as Thirteen, Between the Legs "Front to Back";
Fairfax County School District Has Covered It Up a Year and Won't Expel Him
This 19 year old high school student -- anyone want to take the under on that alleged age? Because I'll take the over -- is a junior.
I'll give you a second to recover from your shock at learning that.Matt WhitlockThey just want to "breathe" and live freely and rape your pre-teen daughters. Is that so wrong?
@MattWhitlock Absolutely radicalizing story. A 19-year-old illegal enrolled as a junior at Fairfax High has been sexually assaulting students as young as 13 ALL YEAR. Fairfax covered it up despite 12 reports from girls. Fairfax want to release him AND they won't allow him to be deported.
Descano is the Soros prosecutor who routinely drops all charges on dangerous violent criminals, especially if they're from a Protected Race.
Nick Minock
@NickMinock 🚨New: Fairfax County parents tell me their girls were groped in between their legs front to back during school by an adult male student who happens to be an illegal immigrant and that this has been happening the entire school year. Parents are livid at Fairfax County Public Schools. Today, Steve Descano's prosecutor Jenna Sands agreed to release the suspect from jail. The judge said no. ICE lodged a detainer. ICE says Fairfax County Sheriff Stacey Kincaid isn't honoring their detainer.
Here's some of his recent work:

🚨FAIRFAX, VIRGINIA: Israel Christopher Flores-Ortiz, a 19-year-old ILLEGAL ALIEN from El Salvador, has been arrested for assault and battery against MULTIPLE high school girls while enrolled in a local high school.

An adult Fairfax High School student has been charged with nine counts of assault and battery amid accusations that he was groping girls in the halls during school. 7News Reporter Nick Minock was the first to break this story and spoke exclusively with the victims' parents. "There's a group of about 12 individuals that have reported this assault," one mother told 7News. "It was all perpetrated by a single individual who is a stranger to the girls. He just sneakily walked up behind them and put his hand in between their legs. It was not just a butt smack or a butt grab. It was a groping of a private area. It had been occurring for several months." Israel Flores Ortiz is almost 19 years old, and he's in the 11th grade at Fairfax High School.This being Fairfax, Virginia, where illegal alien savages are not only permitted but encouraged to rape American citizens, the girls who reported this monster are now being bullied by the children of leftwing Kamala voting parents.
On Friday, Judge Dipti Pidikiti-Smith denied Ortiz's request to be released from jail, even after Fairfax County Commonwealth's Attorney Steve Descano's office agreed to Ortiz's bail request. The judge said the proposed bail request didn't properly protect the public. About a dozen girls have come forward to report that Ortiz put his hands in between their legs, grabbed their private parts in the front, and moved his hands to their butts while in the school's hallways. "What do you think about your experience so far with the school system handling this situation?" Minock asked two of the mothers, who agreed to speak on camera. "Abysmal, abysmal," one mother told 7News. "I think from the very beginning, Fairfax County has attempted to diminish what happened to these girls." Parents of several of the girls tell 7News they are furious with Fairfax County Public Schools. "They have attempted to sweep it under the rug," one mother said, "They sent out a letter last night." "After we demanded it, multiple parents demanded that there be a letter before we got it," one of the mothers exclaimed. "But it was a completely sanitized letter," the first mother continued.
The parents told 7News FCPS' description of what happened has caused bullying. "The girls have experienced harassment and bullying from peers at school, including people that they once thought were their friends, and the letter that they sent out, referencing it only as buttocks touching, just adds fuel to rumors that they were just attention seeking," one mother told 7News. ... 7News asked FCPS if they will allow Ortiz to come back to school, and why FCPS didn't address his alleged behavior sooner if it was happening all school year? ... 7News has also now learned Ortiz is an illegal immigrant from El Salvador who crossed the southern border in 2024 and was released under federal government policy at that time. Immediately after his arrest last week, ICE issued a detainer for Ortiz in order to deport him, but ICE told Nick that the Fairfax County Sheriff is not honoring that detainer. "Unfortunately, sanctuary politicians like Gov. (Abigail) Spanberger are outlawing cooperation with ICE and choosing to RELEASE criminal illegal aliens from their jails back onto their communities to create more American victims," an ICE spokesperson told 7News. "We are calling on Fairfax County to honor our detainer to ensure this violent criminal is removed from our country so he can never claim another victim again."That's because the Soros prosecutor refuses to charge this as sexual battery -- only simple battery (and only because his preferred strategy of just letting this monster continue to grab 13 year old girls by the genitals caused too much heat).
Even if Ortiz is convicted, he likely wouldn't spend much time behind bars.

A wave of events honoring Cesar Chavez have been pulled amid “troubling allegations” made against the civil rights leader.
The United Farm Workers union said in a statement on Tuesday it will halt celebrations after learning of “profoundly shocking” allegations against one of the union’s Chicano founders.
The union pointed out claims have been made that Chavez “behaved in ways that are incompatible with our organization’s values.
“Some of the reports are family issues, and not our story to tell or our place to comment on,” it read. “Far more troubling are allegations involving abuse of young women or minors.”
Those allegations include that “very young women or girls may have been victimized,” by its founder.

Any GOPer objecting to the groping is instantly invalidated because they haven't called for the impeachment of the groper in chief, who has literally bragged about doing so.
These are the undocumented people who should be deported, no real controversy here. placing his illegal immigrant status at the forefront of the title, rather than focusing on his actions, makes this overtly political.
How's the weather in Russia? You don’t even live in the east coast and you’re trying to create dissent here. No one is okay with assault, but that also doesn’t give credence to your anti-immigrant propaganda.
Meanwhile all the white guys that groped us at ‘Fairfax County High School’ are now in high paying government jobs.
MAGA doesn't care about girls at all, no one is fooled by this selective outrage. I went to this school and if the girls needed protection from anything it’s the white boys that go here by a mile.

Because if they charge with Sexual Assault, as he is 19 and they are like 16? it becomes Sexual Assault on a Minor... which weirdly enough it does not look like there is any differentiation in Virginia law unless they are under 13... but would make it harder for the MSM to ignore.

We tried "stepping up." For our troubles we got ridiculed, exploited, emasculated, demeaned, divorced, cast aside, our fortunes and property stripped from us, our children taken away and alienated, our futures wasted, our spirits destroyed, and our bodies imprisoned - and all the while mocked for all these things happening to us. So fuck it, men are done. Help yourselves from here on out.

It's weird. Chani's first appearance in the trailer is her loving the fact that she's having Paul's baby.
And at the end of the second film, she left in a huff because Paul wasn't being true to her.
The change to Chani is the only change that really bugs me in Villeneuve's adaptation, but I also know that he did it with a mind towards this third entry, though, you know, Chani never hated what Paul became in the sequel books.
Loved the radicalization of Jessica, though.

Early reports and speculation often called the third movie Dune Messiah (or Dune: Messiah) because that's the source material, and Villeneuve has described it as the conclusion to his trilogy focused on Paul Atreides' story. However, the studio (Warner Bros.) and official listings confirmed the title as Dune: Part Three in mid-2025, continuing the numbering pattern from Part Two rather than using the book's subtitle.
The plot will follow the events of Dune Messiah, set about 12 years after Part Two, with Paul (Timothée Chalamet) as Emperor Muad'Dib dealing with the consequences of his jihad, political conspiracies, and personal struggles—making it a darker, more introspective story than the previous entries.

He wrote one.
He wrote the second one because everyone was thinking Paul was a hero instead of a monster. So, Dune Messiah makes it very clear that he's a monster. Equated explicitly to Hitler at one point.

Our system has weaknesses that leftist mutants and looters are gleefully exploiting. The weaknesses exist in places where the system assumed that "no sane, accomplished person who rose through the system would do that," and "if anyone actually did that, the public would correct the problem unofficially," Used to be true, but these days, no and no.
I hate to admit it, but maybe those stuffy exclusionary intolerant patricians of the past were on to something. They got some things wrong, had blind spots, we're dealing with the results of their butt-headed failings today. But... maybe they got some things right. For better and for worse, they were part of society's immune system. Society is immunocompromised now.

The Brian Herbert sequels are genuinely better than most of Frank Herbert's Dune books.
Frank was so obsessed with the idea that he should be a god king and that god kings were inherently evil that he spent 1500 pages across 3 novels (God Emperor, Heretics, and Chapterhouse) trying to square the circle.
Brian just wanted to finish out the story.

Three Aircraft Carriers were needed for the initial strikes to kill off their Anti Air assets, and Missile launchers... now there are not enough targets to need 3 carriers...
Ford has been deployed since June 2025... and had its deployment had been extended not once, but twice.
Having had a couple of cruises extended meself, 11 months (which it will be by the time they get home) is a hell of a long time to be deployed.

To every kid with a learning disability: don’t let anyone — not even the President of the United States — bully you.
Dyslexia isn’t a weakness.
It’s your strength.
_______
This guy is a pandering retarded idiot with decapitated worms squirming in his brain.
On what planet, in what reality, can an obvious reading disability be a strength? Dyslexia is something that can be overcome, but it's not easy and will always require more "work" than someone who reads normally. Those are just facts.
If dyslexia is such a strength, what about blindness? That must be even better, right? Hell, why not go all the way and say being a deaf blind mute quadriplegic in a coma is the best thing we should all strive for.

Antifa screwed up, they went to a mass at st Joe's YESTERDAY with a backpack full of ... something. yes a young man with black clothing and a large black backpack went to Mass yesterday thinking it was the Mass TODAY (got the day wrong). promptly was pushed out by the congregation and questioned by police, who detained him (interestingly). everyone says he was acting really suspiciously
so HOPEFULLY the service and everything for the statie who was murdered by Antifa last week (or so) will go ok, and no trouble.
such a sad story. I really thought it might bubble up but I'm sure the MSM is studiously ignoring it.

One of theories being investigated is that the fire was intentionally set by one or more crewmembers to effect an end to the long deployment.
That's according to an unnamed source, but it makes sense to at least consider that possibility.

Well, they've been raised up as beauty idols for their entire adult lives. Their entire value, almost literally, has been based off it, so as they age, they see it's fading. If they show off more skin and look like that, they'll get all sorts of praise in media about how beautiful they are, and their bold, brave fashion sense. They're just trying to keep their egos up as they lose their youth and beauty.

I'm not sure it's even the moms of the girls attacked. The video I saw was two concerned moms commenting on the whole sordid thing, but I don't think their daughters were attacked.

But he said that’s not the interesting statistic. He said of the subset of scum bags he takes down for sexual assaults (esp young girls like 12-14), 80-85% are Hispanic-central and South American. He said they have zero boundaries with young girls.
So this story (as well as many others) is so unsurprising since “the youth” was Central American.

Plur1bus, that’t it.
It’s like a metaphor for wokism or the progressive hive-mind or cults in general.
My biggest problem is that it’s not sure if it wants to be a sci-fi drama or dramedy, or a serious thinkpiece, and the main character is annoying as hell on occasions.
Now that they brought in the Paraguayan man it may get better in the second season just to see how they’re going to disrupt the signal and put everything right again, but based on the first season, I’m sure it’ll go in a surprising direction.
The movie F1 is on there, and Napoleon, those are two I’m interested in.

South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said the missiles were fired from an area in Sunan, the site of Pyongyang's international airport, and flew about 350 kilometers (220 miles).

Without Oil, Cuba Is Burning
From John Sexton, the fall has begun.
WSJ:"Libertad, libertad," shouted hundreds of demonstrators as they faced off against police outside the precinct in Morón, a city of about 70,000 near Cuba's northeastern coast. Protesters then marched to the offices of the ruling Communist Party, according to the Cuban government and videos posted on social media. Residents threw rocks at the building and tried to set it ablaze. Others climbed on the building's second story and threw papers and furniture into the street, which they then set on fire. At the time of the protest, Morón hadn't had any electricity for 30 hours... Alberto Echemendía, the head of the Communist Party in Morón, held a rally of "revolutionary reaffirmation" in front of the ransacked party headquarters. "We live in complicated times," he told El Invasor, a regional official newspaper, blaming U.S. economic sanctions for the riots.

A lot of the whining from Democraps over Cuba isn't just that they don't want to see fellow commies get fucked in the ass.
It's also that Democraps are embarrassed that Trump is so easily crushing the Cuban regime, after Democraps assured us for 50+ years that the Cuban regime was big and strong, and backed unconditionally by powerful international interests, and there was absolutely nothing we could do about a hostile fascist foreign regime less than 100 miles from our shores.
Trump is embarrassing Democraps by exposing this 50-year-old lie.

Let's see...
1. Venezuela, which is being governed by the VP of the person we arrested. Not much of an overthrow there.
2. Iran. A country which declared war on the US 46 years ago but also the country to which Rhodes pledges his allegiance.
3. Cuba. A country dealing with internal issues where we've done not much really.

As Secretary Clinton testified in March, the United States
engagement in Libya followed the administration's strategy of "using
the combined assets of diplomacy, development, and defense to protect
our interests and advance our values." \4\ Faced with brutal attacks
and explicit threats of further imminent attacks by Muammar Qadhafi
against his own people,\5\ the United States and its international
partners acted with unprecedented speed to secure a mandate, under
Resolution 1973, to mobilize a broad coalition to protect civilians
against attack by an advancing army and to establish a no-fly zone. In
so doing, President Obama helped prevent an imminent massacre in
Benghazi, protected critical U.S. interests in the region, and sent a
strong message to the people not just of Libya--but of the entire
Middle East and North Africa--that America stands with them at this
historic moment of transition.

I feel like Venezuela was a new high for Trump and now’s he chasing it but we are at desperate spiral stage. Should be fun!
Trump talks about countries like he does pre-pubescent girls. Hopefully Cuba decides to become a protectorate of Mexico or Brazil before a certain pedophile tries to grab them by the you know what.
Trump: "I do believe I'll be having the honor of taking Cuba." When he says 'taking' there, it sounds like he means sexually assault.
I hate him with every fiber of my being, but the fact that’s he’s right is making me hate the rest of our treasonous, ineffective government just as much.
But he is not right? He expected Iran to be like Venezuela and now he is begging "allies" to get involved in his war.

@brhodes
This is dangerous, immoral, and illegal - the third government he's tried to overthrow in the first three months of this year. We are in a worst case scenario of authoritarianism.
=============================
You can argue we have no business taking down tyrants. I get that argument. You can argue we should never risk our military unless a clear threat to America exists, and I get that too.
But no definition of "moral" includes protecting tyrannical regimes headed by leftist warlords.
Nobody thinks taking down Maduro was a morally bad thing to do, except Ben Rhodes, since Maduro stole elections, tortured his opponents, ran drugs, and fomented death and destruction on Venezuelan borders. Same for the Iranian mullahs. And we haven't taken down Cuba yet, but the people of Cuba appear to think they can do it. Another tyrannical leftist regime, rejected by its people, illegitimate and living on only by force of arms, done.
And Rhodes mourns their passing, he supports terrorist, murderous, kleptocratic, illegitimate, tyrannies.

I have for years now been calling for the MLB to create 2 new leagues: Far east and Caribbean. They would only meet to play for All-Star and Post Season games.
Obviously the owners would never allow it, if they could they'd have even more post season matchups and love the interleague games. But if I were in charge of baseball there would be a lot of changes they didn't care for, like reducing the number of yearly games and rounds of playoffs.

Hurricane Maria in September 2017, a Category 4 storm, knocked out power across all of Puerto Rico by toppling approximately 80% of the island’s transmission lines and destroying critical infrastructure. The hurricane caused the largest blackout in U.S. history, with the entire power grid collapsing and leaving 1.5 million customers without electricity.
Puerto Rico’s power grid was already weakened by financial instability, poor maintenance, and aging infrastructure before the storm. The Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA) had declared bankruptcy and lacked funds for necessary upgrades, making recovery extremely slow—officials estimated it could take four to six months just to restore power.
There was a national shortage of power line poles because basically the island's whole system needed to be rebuilt.

PR had a good chance with a MAGA-ish president making some real reforms. Ricky Rossello. He's a businessman.
The leftwing commies on the Island got really scared, so he had to go. So they largely invented a big scandal where he was exchanging texts with his advisors shitting on homosexuals, and leftwing politicians, using very crude (but funny) language.
There was not one word in any of the texts that was not dead on the money. But he was ousted.

Between 2004 and 2008 Wachovia moved $378 billion from Mexican exchanges, I am told that Mexico's entire GDP at the time was $1.3 trillion
At least $110 million was Sinaloa Cartel cash, and $13 million of it bought planes that shipped 22 tons of cocaine into the US
HSBC was doing the same thing in Mexico
This is why Cartels are hard to stop, because too many white shoe, international banks are profiting from it. 2008 was the real estate securities market bubble that promised to kill the major banks. It seems that it could have been primed by cartel money, and when it popped, the US Taxpayers got to shell out to save the banks from having to tell the cartels the money went poof.

Makes perfect sense. If you're an authoritarian, having three key authoritarian governments get toppled really IS something of a "worst case scenario" for you. And "dangerous" for you.

Venezuela falls, depriving Chy-Nah and Iran of a yuge customer.
Iran falls, depriving Chy-Nah of their best source of oil, and resulting in the fall of Hezbullah, Islamic Jihad, Hamas and all the rest of the retarded, psychopathic, goat-fucking monkeys of Islam of their greatest benefactor.
Cuba falls, without Iranian oil.
The price of oil plummets when a new regime in Iran starts selling oil freely to everyone.
Russia's economy, such as it is, collapses when the price of oil drops.
The North Korean people finally decide they've starved for enough decades and take matters into their own hands, devouring Kim Jong Un and the rest of the commie thugs ruling NK.

Now, this is interesting because the Constitution says it is up to CONGRESS to write rules for Courts lower than the Supremes... but delegated that authority to the SUPREMES in 1934.
But, under the Tariff precedent they recently set, they said MAJOR issues cannot really be delegated by Congress, if that power is given TO Congress, by the Constitution.
Seems that rules allowing Judges, to give orders to the entire executive branch, only based on Court Rules, not Law, would fit under that precedent.
And this is even a step further down... a regular Fed Judge, writing the rules that the Constitution says Congress is supposed to write.

Did they mention that he was a virulently racist cocksucker? The first chapter of his stupid book had him and his wife walking the streets of Bombay, and when he looked out at a "sea of brown faces" (a direct quote, by the way) that's what planted the seed for his population ideas.

The wealthy who live in gated compounds are never bothered by illegals, in fact they enjoy having access to the semi-slave labor whenever they wish.
It’s people who actually work for a living and live in middle class housing that suffer.

I don't disagree with you, its just that Rushmore has an existing shrine rep with Libs, it screws with their heads, and infuriates them, to push the idea of placing his likeness on Rushmore. We could "compromise" with them by having a bigger mountain for his face. Best of both worlds. Push Rushmore first to get them steamed up and wasting their time and money trying to stop it.

Iran's De Facto Supreme Leader Ali Larijani Dies of Complications Due to Mojtaba Khamenei's AIDS and an Israeli Airstrike But Mostly Complications Due to Mojtaba Khamenei's AIDS
Ali Larijani, the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, was considered one of the most veteran and senior figures within the Iranian regime leadership and was a close associate of the Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. During the most recent wave of protests in Iran, Larijani employed violent enforcement measures and repression operations, personally overseeing the massacre against Iranians protesting the regime. After Khamenei was killed in the opening strikes of the war over two weeks ago, Larijani consolidated his status as the de facto leader of the Iranian regime and led the combat efforts against the State of Israel and countries across the region.Reports say that even before Khamenei was killed, Larijani had been put in charge of all of Iran's day-to-day management.
He delivered a defiant message on state television after the U.S.-Israeli strikes killed Khamenei, warning that Iran would make its enemies "regret" their actions and promising a forceful response.That forceful response? Dying like a cigarette crushed under a boot. Trump is reportedly very angry at the Europeans for refusing to help keep the Strait of America open -- and keeping their own oil flowing. The US doesn't depend on the Strait of America. Europe does. And they're refusing to send ships to keep it clear.
President Donald Trump on Tuesday called out NATO for making a "very foolish mistake" by not helping the U.S. with the Iran operation, though he added "we don't need them." Trump made the comments when answering questions from reporters during a meeting with the Taoiseach of Ireland in the Oval Office at the White House. "I think NATO's making a very foolish mistake," Trump said when a reporter asked about getting America's allies to assist the U.S. in escorting oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz. "And I've long said that, you know, I wonder whether or not NATO would ever be there for us." Trump added: "So this is a this was a great test because we don't need them, but they should have been there."Warmongering homosexual homonculous Lindsey Graham ranted emotionally as usual, but he's not wrong.
Lindsey GrahamIt's time to end NATO. There is no reciprocal advantage to the US -- it's just a blank-check commitment to continue supporting this dying-but-Islamizing continent with no counter-commitments flowing back to us. They have no capacity or desire to defend themselves, let alone provide any kind of defense for us.
@LindseyGrahamSC Just spoke to @POTUS about our European allies' unwillingness to provide assets to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning, which benefits Europe far more than America. I have never heard him so angry in my life. I share that anger given what's at stake. ... The repercussions of providing little assistance to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning are going to be wide and deep for Europe and America. I consider myself very forward-leaning on supporting alliances, however at a time of real testing like this, it makes me second guess the value of these alliances. I am certain I am not the only senator who feels this way.

Trump added: "So this is a this was a great test because we don't need them, but they should have been there."
It has been noted before that the most likely reason for Europe's refusal to help is Europe's inability to help. They can't very well say "yeah, we've been playing you for a sucker for the last 80 years", so they act like this is a principled stand.

I dunno. As you all know, I'm a student of history. A real "buff" if you will.
Anyway, the one thing I know from history is that the Air Force (originally the Army Air Force) has promised that it could win a war entirely from the skies since the anti-industrial bombing campaign against Hitler. This has simply never, ever happened. Absolutely, air power can "hollow out" a regime so that ground forces can then just walk over what's left of them (remember the Afghanistan bombing campaign), but at the end, you do absolutely need those ground forces to drive the enemy out and kill them.
I keep wondering what the end game is. I speculate that maybe a drone campaign can serve as Almost Ground Forces, but I dunno.

The most likely scenario at this point is a bunch of different governors/military leaders all claim to be the supreme leader.
Then we'll keep bombing the worst of that lot while we let the rest fight it out.
Eventually they'll get a leader that has been very, very careful to not draw our attention and will continue to be very, very careful to not do so.

This is the other thing I keep praying for -- air dropping in pallets and pallets and pallets of guns and grenades and radios, and just letting the civilians take them.
We don't care if the Basij or IRGC forces get the guns -- they already have all the guns and ammo they could want. We just need the civillians to have weapons too!

Come the midterms we're ending his rein of bullsh*t he forces on the whole world. After he loses power we're sending all of them to prison for their many crimes against us and everyone else.
We got this. Hang in there we'll be back better and stronger than ever. We got you too.
Does the reluctance from other countries signal declining US influence, or simply caution about escalating the conflict with Iran
As an American I'm glad to see that NATO is not coming to his rescue. He made this mess, it's on him. He wants to be remembered by history so badly, no one will forget this failure.

A regime must have enforcers, and that's what is new. We can literally annihilate their enforcers on an individual basis. Individual citizens are calling up airstrikes via Starlink. There are reports that 90% of the Basiji aren't showing up for work, presumably because they want to keep breathing.
My best guess is that the Shah will form a transitional government to hold elections. After that, the outcome is anyone's guess, but how much worse could it be than the mullahs.

Drones can't really be anything more than light infantry (Delbrueck), but their effect is outsized until counter-units are more powerful. Drones can occupy only unoccupied territory. Briefly.

He's published an outline of a plan. Basically, after six months a plebiscite on whether they want a constitutional monarchy or have someone else as head of state, he openly prefers the former as you would expect. But he pledges to respect the vote. Either way, elections in a year and he is either head of state or retires.

Drones have substantially changed the game. It’s not just cost, its capabilities. Lingering munitions have the capability to precisely and selectively take out targets. Add to that a substantial upgrade of munitions (smaller packages targeted to various missions) and it’s a game changer.
I believe the strategy here is to degrade their capabilities as much as possible, take out the worst people and wait for a phone call from whoever is left.
I am a huge critic of regime change. I hated the CPA and tha asshole Paul Bremer. What the did was take out the Baath Party and therefore put Iraq on the road to the mess we saw later on. So Trump et al, is taking the lessons learned from that and trying to keep some semblance of public order through continuity, with new people at the helm. YMMV.

Britain's Royal Navy is one of the best examples - on a day to day basis, Britain has perhaps 2 or 3 surface combatants and a single sub in service. They can deploy perhaps one of the surface combatants, intermittently. They lack the support infrastructure to sustain that deployment and so would depend on the US. They have 2 aircraft carriers but even after nearly a decade in service they are not ready for combat deployments.
The Royal Air Force is hardly any better, having 2 or 3 squadrons of tactical aircraft in effective service, with perhaps one being in a deployable state at any given time. They can offer little more than a token force.
Germany is even worse off. France is perhaps slightly better but only slightly so.

Well, I'm guessing that Japan's government doesn't consider an increase in the price of oil to meet the bar required for them to use their defense force. Since it's been argued that the force, as constituted, already violates their Constitution, I'm prepared to cut them some slack.

Yea. Their new PM is badass and I'll bet is itching to kick some ass if for no other reason than to show China that Japan is a real force. But the Japanese constitution severely limits foreign military action absent a declaration of war. IIRC, the PM can't wage military actions by herself like the USA president can. Needs legislative approval.

I fear @vali_nasr is right. When I met Ali Larijani I found him an absolute insider kingpin of the Iranian regime -- but also the kind of strong and pragmatic leader who just might be able to hammer out a peace deal. Not sure, but I wonder if the war will now be harder to end.

The amount of oil shipped per tanker varies significantly based on the vessel's size and type.
Small tankers (e.g., highway tanker trucks) typically carry between 5,500 and 11,600 gallons (20,800 to 43,900 liters), with large semi-trailer trucks commonly holding around 9,000 to 11,600 gallons of gasoline or diesel.
Medium-sized tankers (e.g., AFRAMAX, LR1) can transport between 310,000 and 615,000 barrels of crude oil, which equates to 13 million to 25.8 million gallons.
Large tankers (e.g., VLCCs) carry approximately 2 million barrels, or about 84 million gallons.
The largest oil tanker ever built, the Seawise Giant, could transport up to 4 million barrels, amounting to 168 million gallons of crude oil per journey.

On a related note, I expect we will see the dreaded "boots on the ground", but in a limited fashion. Specifically, the US could be using those Marines that are en route to secure the Iranian shore along the Strait of Hormuz, and maybe that critical oil infrastructure on Kharg Island.
Air power is incredible, and Special Ops can do amazing things, but but those things can only go just so far. To secure Iran's oil industry, and the Strait - send in the Marines.
But the army that's supposed to take over the whole country is a insurgency of Iranians not the US Army.

They are all fine, and have been fine. The media knows Rs will turn on their R women faster than anything, while defending their male picks to the death...thus, why the focus is always on making the R women look bad. Next up will be the press secretary when she goes on maternity leave and isn't there for X...a "how can she keep her job when she knows she'll be gone 6 weeks - is she gonna ignore her kid or ignore her country...either way, she's horrible"...this is coming next...

And what kind of coverage you are looking for.
In the Straight, there are well defined shipping lanes, so if they could (and I don't think they can, at least not anymore) they could set mines at different depths, with different proximity distance, and technically be a real threat.
But since that hasn't happened yet, I doubt it ever will. Missiles are Iran's only remaining threat, and a gay one at that.

He remarried to Heather Kaiser in 2023 who works for Max Blumenthal's Grayzone.
From Brave AI, Both Kaiser and Blumenthal are known for their critical stance on U.S. military and foreign policy, particularly regarding Ukraine and Israel. Their work has drawn attention from conservative and progressive circles alike, though it has also been criticized by mainstream media and government officials for alleged bias and lack of official verification.
And btw, Max is the son of Sid 'Vicious' Blumenthal who was the Clinton's hatchet man.

One day he was standing there in Baghdad, talking to the press about how Iraq would repel the invaders - while you could literally see and hear US tanks in the background. The next day the entire Iraqi government simply didn't show up for work, unannounced, and never returned.

Some indications that Caldwell got crosswise with his immediate superior who also ended up resigning. Joe Kasper who was Hegseth's Chief of Staff.
Both probably blamed the other for leaks.
Brave AI summary
"Caldwell had been a close ally of Hegseth, dating back to their time at Concerned Veterans for America, and was named Hegseth’s point of contact in the controversial Signal chat that inadvertently included The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief. Despite public accusations from Hegseth about leaks, no evidence of wrongdoing was found, and Caldwell was ultimately cleared. "

True. But the USA was two years late to both World Wars, and recently bugged out of Afghanistan leaving all their allies in the lurch. You're still the same country and the same people (the ones who voted for Jimmy Carter, who basically started the Iranian Revolution, Obama, who funded the Mullahs, and President Autopen, who was even worse than Jimmy Carter at foreign policy), even if you (temporarily) have a different leader. And the UK politicians have bad memories of getting burned by following Bush into Iraq.
America told us it was 'America First' and they weren't interested in participating in any wars that didn't serve American interests, like Ukraine. It makes sense, then, that Europe should be 'Europe First' and not help America. Make up your minds! Are we going to kick ass and change regimes around the globe or aren't we?

One important thing to realize is that to be a modern leftist you have to believe that the world is nearly doomed, everyone is against you, you are an oppressed minority fighting a feeble resistance, Nazis are all around you and now in charge, and you are alone.

It is somewhat tongue in cheek but you also may not realize the influence people like Michael and Debi Perl and their acolytes had, or Bill Gothard and the IBLP had in Christian evangelical circles on this very topic. One can argue that it was not a genuinely "Christian" approach, but it was one heavily relied upon within not-insignificant numbers of Christian parents.

The Presidents behind that were Globalists too. The reason that the political establishment is so hell-bent on destroying Trump is that he's here to DESTROY the Globalist establishment, and to do so on a global scale.
The average person in the UK doesn't even seem to understand that the reason their PM doesn't live up to any of his promises, and nothing ever gets any better for them is that their PM is a Globalist puppet.

Eh, The Europeans will not even address their own internal security from imported jihadis, so they lack the ability anymore to protect their vital interests, like oil imports, abroad. They seem to like getting their critical energy imports from countries that despise and hate them like Russia or the Middle East because in turn those countries buy Euro products.
Expecting them to do much in NATO if the Russians ever did take up invading is a laughable proposition. Individual front line countries like Poland, or perhaps the Baltics might do so, but the Germans, Brits, and French are stuck into terminal decline as their economies and military power shrivels while they import killers from foreign lands to destroy their domestic societies.

You're right, that's about the only threat left, although I think the suicide speedboats are better suited for the latest CNN broadcast instead of, well, real life. To me, the "cool" part of it is that drones most probably could not ever actually sink a tanker: hurt the super-structure and command centers, sure, but it would be easily salvageable.

Some Zodiacs or fishing smacks can go lay mines, they can't carry much. During WWII the USN could spot submarine snorkels within visual range, and I suspect the ability has improved since then so that is sort of a losing bet for the mine laying crews.
I think there is more problem with missiles and drones, and that is something that counterbattery fire would do better, and there is that targeting issue for isolated IRGC launching crews. I also think the USN should borrow Embraer Super Tucanos from Chile for air and surface drones

I think you are correct. Found this summary of the Iran Iraq war, Strauss Center is the source.
"Lessons Learned:
Iran and Iraq used anti-ship cruise missiles in more than half of all attacks on shipping during the Tanker War. Iraq used missiles in approximately 80 percent of their attacks on commercial ships.
Oil tankers are not very vulnerable to damage. 61 percent of the ships attacked during the Tanker War were oil tankers. In total, only 55 of the 239 petroleum tankers (23 percent) were completely sunk or declared CTL, compared to 39 percent of bulk carriers and 34 percent of freighters."

FWIW, Latinos are not jihadis by and large, most do work, and drugs are a separate issue. Cartels mainly come from Mexico's failed state situation and Chicoms selling chemical precursors to Mexican cartel producers.
Europe's economy flatlined somewhere between the late 1990's and early 00's and that means that the money to fund its military has dried up. At the same time, France, UK, and Germany began importing vast hordes from the Africa, Middle East, and S. Asia. And these have not been productive citizens.

Time to restrict where Americal.oil goes.
Our gas and diesel prices reflect world oil prices, because we allow other countries' oil companies to bid against American companies. If we don't allow oil exports to reduce our own supply, US gas and diesel prices will be much reduced, while foreign prices will rise quite a bit.

The Morning Rant
The California tax scheme is indeed progressive, and the Texas and Florida schemes are indeed regressive, but those are technical terms that do not reflect the reality, which is that the total tax burden of everyone in California: rich, middle class, or poor, is higher than that of Texas and Florida residents. And by a lot! And it's not just high gas taxes and sales taxes; California has an income tax, unlike Florida and Texas, so the more its residents work and make, the more they are taxed. It tops out at an unbelievable 13.3%, plus -- I'm not making this up -- a 1% "Mental Health Services" tax. And it is onerous not just on well-off people who make more than $1,000,000/year. It is an insulting 9.3% marginal rate on income over about $75,000! That's not wealthy. That is scraping by in many parts of California, with $5 gasoline and outrageously expensive electricity (more than 50% higher than average). Hopefully the Republican nominee in 2028 will "pounce" on this inconvenient, economy-destroying rate and eviscerate Governor Brylcreem for this and many other anti-freedom and anti-growth policies that he embraces like the unrepentant economic and social leftist that he is.

That's nice.
They use this argument in the state of Washington as well - what they don't count, of course is transfer payments.
If you are getting "free" health care, food stamps, housing vouchers, etc., that fact that you are theoretically paying a larger share of your "income" in taxes than someone making more than you isn't terribly relevant.

Part of it is the increase in oil prices. Most gas stations price gas based on futures contracts on oil barrels purchased.
But a lot of it is just, honestly, price gouging. The rise is out of step with current future contract price increases.
Places like Costco, that seem to have policies around selling gas at precise margins, should see falls fastest and emotional exuberance dies down.

No. The fine for failure to pay a tax was established years ago. The potential jail time for refusal to pay, likewise. The fact that the tax which you're not paying was retroactive is irrelevant.
Basically, it's Calvinball.

Back during the last "oil crisis", we had one gas station almost double their prices overnight. They were the first station when coming into town on the main road. After about two days, everyone noticed all the other stations had only a moderate increase. Now, if memory serves, the town shut the place down for a couple of days accusing them of just blatant gouging.
Don't remember the final outcome, but I do remember things going back to "normal"...

Biss (then in his mid-20's) asked her out on a date after her class with him was over - they had a couple of dates, including a make-out session, and then he thought better of it.
Bliss' opponent is Kat Abughazaleh, a "Palestinian" who would be another Rashida Tlaib in Congress.

Well, war uncertainty was always gonna bring more increases b/c oil is a worldwide-use product...and uncertainty breeds price increase...
And businesses always use the expectations of price increases to make actual price increases. Most are not following a moral code, so if they see a path to make more money, they will take it.
So, you put the three things together and you get price increases like we have...

The vast majority of voters choose culturally. Their chosen political party is just a jersey they put on at the height of political Super Bowl season.
They don't vote on policy or even personality.
They vote because they're Democrat or Republican. That's it.
Hard to break that, but it's never by arguing policy. Might as well argue with a Browns fan that they shouldn't cheer for their team anymore because they suck.

Isn't that the generally accepted truth? Middle and lower class pay higher taxes in Texas, but the the upper class pays higher taxes in California.
California has way better public services, better parks, better hospitals, better schools. Fuck the GOP. I'll gladly pay a little more tax for a fuckload more back than any shithole red state gives you.
Whatever Newsom is doing is working for him. He's rapidly overtaking Harris in 2028 potential polling. Anyone should be opening a commanding lead over Harris after her terrible performance in 2024. I want AOC over milquetoast Newsom but at this point a sun-dried CADAVER would be better than any republican.
I want someone who believes in what they say, and Newsom is not that. He sniffs about for middle of the road liberal opinions and reaches across the aisle to conservatives. don't need him.

Also, as long term homeowners, we get a yuuuge break from property taxes thanks to the tax revolt in the '70's. My own little house is well over $1M, my annual property tax bill is just about $ 5000.
Chevron stations around me are 5.79 for regular. I saw a Mobil station charging over $7/gal for credit card regular. They weren't doing much business. Lowest I've seen locally is Arco for just about 4.90/gal.
Gavin is a zero and like Hillary and Kamala, the more people see of him, the less popular he'll be.

🚨🚨🚨 THE US JUST DEPLOYED "SOFT KILL" ELECTRONIC WARFARE IN IRAN → NO BULLETS, NO BOMBS, TOTAL DESTRUCTION 🚨🚨🚨
America just revealed a capability most people didn't know existed. Electronic warfare systems mounted on Black Hawks that can shut down an ENTIRE battlefield without firing a single round.
Process that.
WHAT "SOFT KILL" DOES:
→ Shuts down ALL enemy communications instantly
→ Disables drones MID-AIR — they fall from the sky like dead birds
→ Directed energy BLINDS every sensor, radar, and targeting system in range
→ Collapses entire command networks in SECONDS
→ No gunfire. No explosions. Just silence.

Got a link for that, because:
No, this isn't true.
US forces are using established electronic warfare (like EA-18G Growlers jamming radars/drones in the current Iran strikes), but no credible reports confirm a secret "soft kill" Black Hawk system just deployed that was classified for a decade. The viral video is CGI hype mixing old concepts (microwaves, infrasound) with unverified claims—no DoD/CENTCOM evidence matches it. Standard EW exists, but this specific story is misinformation.

Before becoming the 40th governor, Newsom served as the Lieutenant Governor of California and Mayor of San Francisco.
He was elected Governor Nov. 6 2018, with his focus on "comeback," diversity, and environmental policies, and sworn into office on Jan. 7, 2019.
His major support has consistently been from deep pocket Democrats including, but not limited to, wealthy tech industry figures, entertainment executives, and various labor unions.

This is rather amusing since Kamala has exactly as much in common with black Americans as Obama did- zero.
Both brought up in a wealthy household by mothers who were not black, sired by fathers who were black but not American.
Kamala, thankfully, doesn't have Obama's acting ability, so she will fail once again. (Obama isn't smart, though he thinks he is. But he IS an amazing actor- he knows how to read lines written for him.)

Yeah, I'm mystified by the "quagmire" rhetoric. We're doing something that has never been done before by taking out their leadership, and now individual regime enforcers, and doing it extremely successfully. If you're calling it a quagmire already, you made up your mind before the first bomb fell.

Yeah, I focused on the quagmire half of the statement, but it's clear the objective is to degrade the Iranian government and its ability to do anything. Seems simple enough.
Some secondary goals which might be nice but not necessary would be an Iran which rejects the mullahcracy and is no longer a threat to the region, a freer and prosperous country yadda yadda.
But fucking up their shit until they can't do shit seems like a clear and achievable objective.

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
Counterpoint.

Gold Star wife here.
My husband didn’t die for Israel. He died because this war has been targeting Americans for decades. Long before most people ever started paying attention.
We didn’t suddenly stumble into this because of Israel. Our service members have been in the crosshairs of Iranian-backed terror networks for years. That’s the reality families like mine have lived with.
So spare me the talking point that this is “Israel’s war.”
Some of us have already paid for it in American blood.

The children were 3 years and 18 months when their mother was killed.
Joe Kent became a non-interventionist.

The absence of an income tax isn't really always a wonderful thing. Texas property taxes are sky-high, and the oft-overlooked part from that is that property taxes are due whether you are employed or not.
Yes, there is a lot of other stuff that goes along with this: what are fees? what are the sales taxes? how are they applied? what are the relative tax rates for income & property? How do functions split between State-duty versus individual citizen? And, overall, how does it all add up to the total tax burden of the States' residents?
You really have to get down to the accounting entry level to do a fair comparison of one tax scheme versus another. I get so tired of the "they have no income tax" as if that's the greatest thing ever. It ain't. The taxman gets his due.

“Price gouging” is a term used by economic illiterates.
Besides, as the pandemic demonstrated, not even markets set prices. The people who set the price? The police. (Because businesses cannot set prices based on supply and demand. That’s called “price gouging” in this allegedly capitalist country. There are laws on the books preventing this. Hence the shortages during the pandemic.)

How come TX has what all the other states have - without income taxes?
Yes, the taxman gets his due, but there are better, less obtrusive ways of doing it. And demanding the efficient spending of the money.
(By the way, TX has the best roads. Fight me.)

Because my property taxes are 3x higher in Texas than they were anywhere else I've lived.
Texas is very different from other States in what it funds. Because of Texas' greater emphasis on local governance & control, the State of Texas simply doesn't require as much money as other States do; the funding is kept more local. Thus, the State of Texas doesn't need an income tax, but the local communities need more bucks, and these come mostly from property taxes - which is why my property taxes are so high.

Significance
Bonington was known for his contributions to watercolor painting and his ability to blend realism with emotional depth. His works, including "The Use of Tears," are celebrated for their technical proficiency and evocative subject matter.

And My Esopha-goose, Too! - a limerick
I asked a poultry farmer named Tucks
Saying, "Why do we cry? It just sucks!
Beside mascara smears
What's the purpose of our tears?"
"They rinse out my lacrimal ducks!"

It's the old lady who is the focus with her dark clothing, solid wood chair and more distinct features. That shifts the focus from the death of a young person to the acceptance of loss. At that time any old person would have lost many family members and friends during their lifetime. She is not immune to the passing and pain but may have run out of tears after losing so many others. But the tenderness is still there in the way she holds the girls hand so gently.

That's quite interesting. I like this one better, like the old lady in this one better. She has that "been there, done that, wish you didn't have to go through it" look.
This is a most touching and poignant painting. May or may hang, but I certainly salute the artist.
I am sorry I don't know how to quote like the cool kids do, but thanks for the link.

Richard Parkes Bonington, English, 1802-1828
Irish woes then? (Off to the Mother & Baby homes or Magdalene Laundries she'll be going?)
Artvee: In part, "Richard Parkes Bonington was an English Romantic landscape painter, who moved to France at the age of 14 and can also be considered as a French artist, and an intermediary bringing aspects of English style to France. Becoming, after his early death, one of the most influential British artists of his time, the facility of his style was inspired by the old masters, yet was entirely modern in its application. His landscapes were mostly of coastal scenes, with a low horizon and large sky, showing a brilliant handling of light and atmosphere. He also painted small historical cabinet paintings in a freely-handled version of the troubadour style."
He had a large body of generally very nice works; beautifully detailed, varying subjects, and colors accenting lighting & placement.
I wouldn't hang today's art selection but would for many of his others.
Thanks.

In February 2021, Kent announced his campaign for the United States House of Representatives election for Washington's third congressional district. He established himself as a candidate supportive of Donald Trump. Kent faced allegations of apparent associations between himself and white nationalists in his campaign. He won the Republican primary against incumbent Jaime Herrera Beutler, but lost to Democratic candidate Marie Gluesenkamp Perez in what was considered a major upset. Kent ran again in 2024, losing to Gluesenkamp Perez again by a larger margin.

My favorite claim of an Irishman when accused of being drunk:
"Ah Jaysus, no, no, no... I'm not drunk at all, at all!
This? This is just a few pints, lads!
Sure, beer’s not even proper drinkin’—it's like... like water with a bit o' flavour and happiness in it! I'm as sober as a judge on a Monday mornin'! Look at me, I'm grand—perfectly steady! (stumbles slightly) See? That's just the floor bein' uneven, not me!
It's only beer, for the love o' God!"

We should absolutely wait to act until Iran has nuclear weapons, thousands of missiles with the range to strike the continental US, and has launched. Only then may we act. And only after getting permission from the UN, lest someone believe that the Joos are manipulating us.

Been through basic training with an M-16. Have gone several times to practice with a variety of pistols and rifles. The last time was a few years ago with our pup in NC. He's got a handful of nice firearms.
Have practiced handling with one of our other pups' Glock without ever loading a bullet in the chamber, just to refresh the feel.
I think I can do this.

Read an article yesterday that said there were roughly 200 millionaire/billionaires in California accounting for around $2t in value.
Since the new tax law was passed, California has lost around $1t in those leaving the state for friendlier tax states.

This Kent guy was a dem before 2021. That being said, there's some antisemites on the right who need to be made persona non-gratis. It doesn't mean you can't criticize Israel, of course you can. But there are too many using it as an excuse for their antisemitism. I pretty much stopped going to Gateway Pundit for that reason.

Thanks. We're all doing fine. Mainly annoyed and hassled.
Have pup and grandpups staying overnight every night, as she doesn't have a shelter in her old building, SIL has been called into service, and she can't carry all of her sleeping kiddies down to our shelter by her lonesome.
Luckily, the grandpups are very cute.

Been through basic training with an M-16. Have gone several times to practice with a variety of pistols and rifles. The last time was a few years ago with our pup in NC. He's got a handful of nice firearms.
Have practiced handling with one of our other pups' Glock without ever loading a bullet in the chamber, just to refresh the feel.

I know well this sting, having lost my mom 3 1/2 years ago just shy of her 80th birthday. A simple UTI turned septic, which shocked her liver and damaged her brain. She lingered for a week in palliative care after the initial diagnosis of a day, with a "false rebound" in the middle of that. What makes it even worse was that she passed when I was at home getting a change of clothes, so she was alone, though in a medically induced coma. I will never get over that.

The Morning Report — 3/17/26
In 1990, Schumer co-sponsored a diversity visa program that offered green cards to 50,000 applicants annually via a lottery system. . . One noteworthy winner of this lottery program in 2010 was Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, a Muslim immigrant and ISIS supporter from Uzbekistan. Seven years later — on October 31, 2017 — Saipov used a rental truck to mow down and kill eight people (and injure at least twelve others) in a busy New York City bike path as an act of jihad. . .Keep that in abeyance for a moment and cut to 2009
“[I]llegal immigration is wrong, plain and simple. When we use phrases like ‘undocumented workers,’ we convey a message to the American people that their government is not serious about combating illegal immigration, which the American people overwhelmingly oppose. People who enter the United States without our permission are illegal aliens, and illegal aliens should not be treated the same as people who entered the United States legally. Any immigration solution must recognize that we must do as much as we can to gain operational control of our borders as soon as possible.” . . . In April 2012, Schumer introduced a bill designed to eliminate laws like SB 1070, an Arizona statute deputizing state police to check with federal authorities on the immigration status of criminal suspects. The senator charged that such laws would inevitably result in “untrained officers … arresting anyone and everyone who might fit the preconceived profile of an illegal immigrant.” In 2013 Schumer led the so-called “Gang of Eight”—four Democrat and four Republican U.S. senators—in the push to pass a sweeping, 844-page immigration-reform bill aimed at giving provisional legal status to at least 11 million illegal immigrants and placing them on a path-to-citizenship. The other Democrats on the panel were Michael Bennet, Richard Durbin, and Robert Menendez. A Politico.com analysis noted that their proposal, if passed, “would transform the nation’s political landscape” by “pumping as many as 11 million new Hispanic voters into the electorate a decade from now in ways that … would produce an electoral bonanza for Democrats and cripple Republican prospects in many states they now win easily.” When Republicans in Congress failed to support the Gang of Eight’s proposal in sufficient numbers to pass it, Schumer blamed that failure on the racism of “Tea Party elites” who, he said, opposed amnesty because they did not want want America to become “less white.” “Yes, things have changed,” Schumer elaborated. “White Anglo-Saxon men are not exclusively running the country anymore…. In a pre-Tea Party world, the Senate immigration bill would have been welcomed by House Republicans,. However, the Tea Party rank-and-file know it’s a different America. It looks different; it prays different; it works different. This is unsettling and angering to some.” In February 2014, Schumer said that Congress should make amnesty available to all immigrants who had come to the U.S. illegally as recently as December 31, 2013. When some Republican lawmakers expressed reluctance to pass an immigration bill because they simply did not trust that President Obama would enforce it, Schumer said: “There’s a simple solution. Let’s enact the law this year, but simply not let it actually start until 2017, after President Obama’s term is over.”Emphasis above mine as we now Psaki-Psircle back to Despicable/Chuck Schemer today:
. . Schumer proceeded to call on Trump to close down his Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity, which was investigating how to best deal with voter fraud. “[W]hat troubles so many Americans every bit as much as the president’s shocking response to this national tragedy is the methodical and pernicious way in which his administration is promoting discrimination, both subtle and not so subtle, in its policies and actions — especially when it comes to undermining the universal right of every American to vote,” Schumer said in a post on Medium.com. “Many of us found the Election Integrity Commission distasteful when it was first created,” he added. “The president’s recent failure to unequivocally condemn bigotry makes its rescission imperative…. Many of us found the Election Integrity Commission distasteful when it was first created. The president’s recent failure to unequivocally condemn bigotry makes its rescission imperative.”
Schumer claimed that President Donald Trump and Senate Republicans are attempting to “disenfranchise millions of Americans and undermine democracy by pushing this despicable SAVE Act,” also called the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility Act. He also called the election integrity bill “one of the most despicable pieces of legislation I’ve come across in the many years I’ve been a legislator.” “Nothing is more important than defeating this dagger to the heart of our democracy,” the Democrat leader told reporters.Translation, it's a dagger in the black heart of Democrat tyranny, putting a real impediment to their ability to steal elections.
A Mauritanian illegal immigrant marked for deportation since 2002 has continued to live in the US and is a registered Democrat who voted in every election since 2008, authorities claim. Mahady Sacko, 50, who goes by the nickname “Sacko Scorpion,” was busted last week in Philadelphia for allegedly falsely claiming citizenship to cast a 2024 ballot. He was picked up in a joint operation between Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the FBI who charge he “falsely represented that he was a US citizen in order to vote and register to vote” in the last preidential election, according to a press release. Sacko denied the charges when called by The Post, claiming: “Everything is a lie! They are lying about me!” before hanging up. He has yet to enter a plea in his case. As the issue of election security ramps up in Congress with the SAVE act, Sacko’s arrest was one of nearly a dozen uncovered by The Post of non-citizens allegedly voting in US elections, sometimes for decades, with many remaining listed as active voters on state rolls, even after their convictions. “The reality is aliens are voting in American elections,” J. Christian Adams, president of Public Interest Legal Foundation, who has spent decades working on election integrity told The Post, noting no one is quite sure how widespread the problem is. There were about 14 million people who are in the country legally but who are not citizens in 2023, according to the Pew Research center. While they may have work permits and visas, they can’t vote. “It’s way worse than the left says, but it’s way better than some others say,” he added. Pennsylvania, a crucial swing state, stands out for disastrous alien voter registration, said Adams. The Keystone State has admitted a glitch in its “motor voter” program, which registers voters at the DMV, inadvertently has allowed approximately 100,000 non-citizens to register to vote, though some state officials dispute this number. Another Pennsylvania voter, Indian citizen Kaushalkumar Patel, 47, of Allentown will stand trial this month for allegedly voting illegally in the 2020 election in Penn. Patel’s lawyer Philip Steinberg previously said he’s waiting for more information from the goverment laying out their case against Patel, saying in a statement: “Mr. Patel has lived a law abiding life in the United States for over 20 years. He works, pays his taxes and is an active participant in his community. He is also the proud father of two young daughters.” On March 6, Canadian Denis Bouchard, 70, pleaded guilty to two counts of making false claims he was a US citizen to vote in 2022 and 2024 elections in North Carolina and faces ten years in prison. An investigation by The Post revealed a man by the same name and age had voted in every election since 2004 and was not registered with a political party. That man was removed from voter rolls in that state after Bouchard’s conviction. In one shocking case, Chinese national Haoxiang Gao, 19, who was a student at the University of Michigan, was charged on June 3 last year with illegally voting in the 2024 election, but fled to China before he could face justice. . . . . . Polling shows the SAVE Act is extremely popular with voters, getting over 70% support, with even half of Democrats in favor.Not only do illegal aliens help steal elections, they steal our society and destroy our culture. Talk about decolonization. Well, Decolonization begins at home. Assimilate or get the hell out. By any means necessary. Yeah, Schemer and the Dems are easy targets but Thune and the GOP not going all out to ram this bill home is is as sharp a dagger as Schemer and his ilk's opposition. While we're on the subject of despicable, I give you the Blonde-bobed Borgia of Bolshevism:
Wow. I’ve been keeping track of Virgina’s new governor, Abigail Spanberger, she who ran as that rarest of political creatures: a moderate Democrat. But the moment she was inaugurated, she ripped off the mask and flew her socialist freak flag. Nowhere has this been more evident in her—and the Democrat-controlled legislature’s--mania for gun control. I wrote about her “assault weapon” and magazine capacity ban on March 15 in Democrats go gun crazy. Despite there being no such thing as an “assault weapon,” Spanberger has banned AR-15s and the like as well as magazines with greater than 15-round capacity. This is a blatant violation of Heller and Bruen and is sure to be eventually overturned by the Supreme Court, if Democrats don’t seize total control of government and pack the Supreme Court before then. But that’s just the beginning . . .These constitutionally suspect measures are surely only the beginning. The legislature, at the urging of the “moderate” Spanberger, are on a roll. It’s HB 110 that is most revealing of their ultimate intentions. All tyrants immediately ban citizen ownership of guns. That’s a bit difficult in America, which unlike all other nations has a Second Amendment, so they go as far as they dare, and Spanberger dares greatly. Tyrants also exempt themselves from the law they pass. I know our Congress routinely does that . . . They’re exempt because they’re special. Normal Virginians aren’t fit to exercise their full rights under the Second Amendment, but Democrats—morally and intellectually superior beings—are.The author notes "Virginia is fast becoming a socialist tyranny., to which I ask "and how should an armed citizenry react to prevent this?" Elsewhere, the situation in Iran continues apace as is evidenced by the links. Have a great Day! And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

- While competent adults in virtually every other medical context retain the absolute right to refuse treatment, pregnant women face a starkly different reality. In certain states, including Florida, courts have carved out a unique legal pathway allowing hospitals to seek emergency orders compelling cesarean sections against a woman’s clearly expressed wishes. These interventions transform what should be a collaborative medical decision into a state-enforced procedure in which the mother’s informed refusal is overridden.

I'm with Levin on this: he's the only conservative "influencer" (perhaps aside from President Trump) calling out the Deep State PsyOp "Right-Wing" Anti-Semite Grifting Hate-America Firsters by name.
Virtually every other "influencer" cowardly refuses to do so -- hiding behind the old RINO "we're better than that crowd" that gave us The Clintons, DogEater, F. Joe Mugabe, and Kommie-la.
You can't fight and destroy an enemy -- especially one whose "internally" co-opted your movement -- without naming names and destroying them literally.

The winter of '24-'26 has been exceptionally lean in terms of total snowfall and snowpack levels in the upper Colorado River drainage and indeed throughout the Colorado Rockies, with current snowpack levels at or near historic lows for this date, well below the average. While there may yet be a late snow dump in the high country boosting the final totals, it looks to be a low run-off year.
Here in Grand Junction we only had two snow days all winter, with less than 3" each time. Mildest, driest winter in my memory.

Sure they do, the same way they get away with illegal gun control laws: because we stopped tarring and feathering politicians in the 1800's.

Same here in Fort Collins. Never seen such a mild winter here. Only 3 or 4 snow days all winter and 2 of those were minor. Temps unseasonably high all winter. So dry we've had wildfire warnings since January.

So you bust you ass and put money aside to invest.

Muldoon, we usually go to Moab at the beginning of the year and fly into Grand Junction. Flying in this year we could visibly see how little if any snow in the area and we always hope for more for that reason. I also follow some of the us water gauges to see the averages of water in rivers.

I am praying for the intercession of St. Patrick that again, the snakes are again driven out of Ireland ( There weren't actually snakes in Ireland. I think it was supposed to be symbolic of the Druids. ) In this case , it's Muslims and the globalists including the President of Ireland who only mentioned Patrick, not " St. Patrick", I think to denigrate the RC background of the Irish. She also celebrated the resiliency of migrants.

The poll tax is explicitly called out in the 24th Amendment in such a way as to bind the states. Firearms taxes are legal provided that they are not used as a mechanism to prohibit purchase. Lots of states have property taxes - Texas included - which is a form of wealth tax.

No, the 5th amendment is one of the ones incorporated against the states by the 14th amendment. Otherwise states could equally be able to take your life without due process. Sorry, you are simply wrong. Like many other things (gun control, etc.) States get away with property taxes simply because nobody with enough lawyers has fought them on the subject.

The government has an unending desire for money. And then has to decide what groups to tax (and how many dollars to print).
The fairest tax would obviously be a simple head tax. If FedGov spends $10k/citizen, every citizen gets a $10k bill.
But that would lead to riots and actual insurrections. So instead they hide as much of the impact of taxes as possible and target groups that they think will just "take it".
And here is one of my biggest complaints with the GOPe. The productive class which mostly votes R is the primary target of the tax code. Job #1 then for the GOPe would be to shift that to target primarily D voters - think Trump's SALT changes but way way bigger then that.

Spanberger has spent the past 10 years as a Congresscritter falsely portraying herself as a moderate. Playing a long game for her planned eventual election to a much more powerful office. Next step for her is running for a Virginia Senate seat, Veep, or POTUS. She can run for anything in '28 and keep her governor's job if she loses. Her schtick will continue to be falsely running as Mommy Moderate.
Democrats see getting assault weapons banned by SCOTUS as the key win leading to a total civilian gun ban. The immediate goal is to sway enough SCOTUS justices into allowing states to ban them because they are evil mass murder devices, somehow not covered for civilian possession by the 2nd Amendment. If they win that fight, their next step will be working to ban shotguns or small pistols or some other class of firearm. Claiming they are now evil mass murder devices. Banning assault rifles will set a precedent for banning any class of firearm. Wash, rinse, repeat as needed to ban all civilian possession of guns.

That had nothing to do with Epstein - it was all to blunt the force of what was coming - the "thoughtful MAGA" on our side leading about half (or a large minority) of the party against itself. And make no mistake the Epstein piece was gamed out well in advance as the thing that could exploit existing fault lines in Trump support. Since they couldn't make their own party stronger, they needed to weaken us.
Trump *immediately* corraled them, before the op even got going in earnest, with everyone wondering why he'd "gone crazy" that day. Risked looking like a pedophile AND going after his "biggest supporters" and the entire base he'd built, two things they assumed Trump and his "ego" would never do. All because they wouldn't, because they actually are vain arrogant pedos. Dummies.

Reminds me of the pretty good 1991 film The Rocketeer, featuring a young pilot (portrayed by Billy Campbell) who becomes a rocket-powered hero with a young Jennifer Connelly as his love interest.
TRIVIA: In '86, after graduating from college and going back to my hometown of Las Vegas, I played on the local club Rugby Club Team with Billy Campbell (a great guy and a stud athlete) -- and cousin of the great actor Bruce Campbell (best know for portraying Ash in the "Evil Dead" trilogy as well as the TV series "Burn Notice").
He was in town filming the first couple seasons of the great TV Series "Crime Story" starring Dennis Farina. The stories he used to tell about the Hollywood cocaine parties (in which he refused to indulge) were amazing ...

Interesting because for the past couple of years, the demographics who bought the most guns or became the first time gun owners, include women, PoC, LGBTQ+ and various marginalized communities.
Dems are incapable of keeping up with political trends because all of their consultants stopped learning things in 2007. They are incapable of challenging their priors.
“Our main priority is affordability and ensuring all Virginians have access to housing.” *Goes straight to guns* It's really bad timing to split the base now. This may cost them the redistricting bill.
Democrats consistently shit the bed 😭😭😭😭 I’m so sick of this. They're the Washington Generals of politics.
This is the moment in history they could flip huge numbers of voters, but they decide to demonstrate that they are still all in on the biggest single issue that keeps single issue voters opposed to them, and gains them nothing.

This is one reason the Dems have been going totally nuts when a Republican wins a POTUS election. With five Leftist Justices, the Left believes it will be able to get SCOTUS to both gut the Bill of Rights and declare a whole lot of unpopular Leftist-desired policies and laws Constitutional. Also, everything getting to SCOTUS will be strictly screened by a Leftist reading of the 14th Amendment equal protection clause.

That almost happened to us with the first kid. The people on my wife's side have...big heads. When they did an ultrasound of the kiddo, his head was large and they were afraid he was gonna be a Down's baby, and a huge baby if full term, and advised an abortion might be warranted. At one point, the doctor wanted to induce my wife, but the answer was, "we have wedding to go to." Doc said, "The wedding is more important than your baby?" So doc sets date to induce wife. That morning, we get a call that they are over-filled with mamas going into labor and we're told not to come in, so we don't...until doctor calls a few hours later and says, "No, you NEED to come in." So they give her the drugs to induce. If it wasn't because the doc was so tired and needed a nap, she would have been C-sectioned, but instead, that gave enough time for full dilation and a natural birth...he weighed in at 7lbs, 10oz, not a huge baby. Yes, docs do get it wrong.

Yeah, it'll get overturned -- eventually. Years from now. Long after its damage has been done, and there is no longer any judicial remedy available.
After all, it only took five years for the Supreme Court to agree that, despite what 80+ judges across the nation said in 2021, a political candidate does indeed have standing to challenge the conduct of an election. Are we intending to allow the whole woke Left agenda, item by item by item, to each embark upon the chimeral journey through the court system?

Top Story
- Nvidia held its keynote address at its annual GPU Technology Conference, where it showed off a preview of its new DLSS 5 software, two months after DLSS 4.5 was released at CES. (Tom's Hardware)
DLSS 5 goes all-in on AI, changing game graphics into the AI developer's idea of game graphics. It's... Not great.
It uses face detection to overlay what it thinks faces should look like on your game's graphics, adding twenty years to the age of characters while leaving their clothes untouched and sometimes leaving random items looking like they've just been dragged backwards through an industrial recycling facility.
And it achieves all this in real time using the power of your own graphics card... Assuming you have dual RTX 5090s, which you don't.

- Encyclopedia Britannica has sued OpenAI for "stealing our shit". (Engadget)
They may not have used precisely those words.
- "Investors" on Polymarket have threatened to murder an Israeli reporter for reporting stories that ran against their "investments". (Times of Israel)
They "invested" in predicting that an Iranian missile would be intercepted; instead it crashed in empty land outside Jerusalem so that they lost their "investments".
Yes, they are gamblers trying to nobble a horse, only the horse is a person and the nobbling would be fatal.
- The cast of Firefly are looking for funds to reboot the series in animated form. (Hollywood Reporter)
Uh... Maybe? It was a great series cut off far too early, and it's probably been too long for them to reprise their roles in a live action series. Also one of the characters is canonically dead.
But animated? Anything can happen in an animated series.
- Micron has begun volume production of 36GB HBM4 modules, 28Gbps PCIe 6.0 SSDs, and 192GB SOCAMM2 laptop memory modules. (WCCFTech)
You can't have any. Not unless your name is Nvidia.
- Dell has introduced its new Pro Max desktop with an Nvidia GB300 CPU and 696GB of LPDDR5X memory. (Notebook Check)

DigitalFoundry did a quick video on YT on DLSS 5.
They said that Nvidia claims that it's machine learning is simply readjusting lighting to achieve the new faces of the game characters, but I find that hard to believe.
It does look like the AI is recreating a path-traced version of in game lighting to give better depth and lighting realism but there's no way it's not recreating faces, especially in some of the examples Nvidia's demo showed.
The example of Grace from Requiem Evil they've been using, is obviously AI re-generated.
It may actually help some games look better, especially older titles.
But Nvidia has to come up with a way to optimize DLSS 5 because very few people can afford a 5090 to run it on.
This seems to be a preview of DLSS 6, which will probably only run on 6000 series GPUs next year.

I've bought from Apple, Best Buy, and Amazon.
Not really much difference between them as far as service, etc.
Sometimes Best Buy and Amazon have sales on Apple products, which Apple rarely, if ever, does.
Best Buy usually adds in some free software or subscription trials to streaming services with their sales. With the Neo they give you Apple News, Apple Music, Apple Gaming, and Apple TV for free trials for 1 to 3 months.
If you get it directly from Apple they usually include a few free trials as well, so really up to you on how fast you want to get it delivered.

In the '90s there was a coffee-bakery in Albuquerque that offered green chile bagels. They weren't greenish in color, just had bits of green chile in them. Faintly spicy. I always thought some place in Da Swamp should have imported them -- people here love spicy.
The coffee-bakery also had chicory coffee, which seems rare outside the South. You could buy it in some groceries in Denver, but people there acted as if it were burned over a campfire. "You like that cowboy coffee, huh?"

I don't think Mark Levin can afford to, since he's in the same attention economy. Although feuding with Megyn Kelly could raise her profile (as when Trump did), it would raise his too, and the opportunity cost could be too much to pass it up. I guess it depends if there's a countervailing cost to his dignity, and how much he values that.
As an aside, Trump is a real natural at that kind of thing. I make an effort to notice the "dog that didn't bark" kind of events, since they're hard to notice by definition, and one is that feud that Trump *didn't* have with Eminem. The rapper tried very hard; he was talking so much trash on stage at his shows, it made the news more than once.
Trump never took Eminem's bait, and that crystallized for me how there were many people he never referred to at all, even obliquely. Journalists only noticed Trump feuding here and there and seemingly all over the place, and never noticed that he was actually very carefully selective, leaving far more opportunities on the table than what he took. And when he did, he mostly benefited as much or than them.

The thing I liked about Amos was that they really grew that character over the run of the show.
He went from a meathead heavy to an almost well-rounded human in five seasons.

You're not the only one. I didn't _dis_-like the show, but it's not the super-incredible be-all and end-all of television it's treated as by its fans. Everything about it is mediocre - the writing, the direction, the acting, the SFX. It's explicitly an allegory for the Reconstruction South, with the Browncoaters standing in for the CSA. Even in 2001, that was a "Really, Joss? Are you sure that's a good idea?"
The reason it's popular - the _only_ reason - is that it was the first show to really lean into the "found family" dynamic millennials obsessed over so much. And it was cancelled before its weaknesses accumulated enough to drag it down.

Monday Overnight Open Thread (3/16/26) The Let Me Give You The What For Edition
[H/T - Uncle Jefe] "Russian River at Asti, northern Sonoma County, just after recently cresting just out of bank… "
Unfortunately time flies and there are whispers about certain conservative justices retiring. I nominate Judge Van Dyke to the highest court!
Judge VanDyke: "This is a case about swinging dicks."
30 members of the Ninth Circuit write to disagree.
The Ninth Circuit denied rehearing en banc in Olympus Spa v. Armstrong. Judge VanDyke wrote the lead dissent, which begins this way: This is a case about swinging dicks. The Christian owners of Olympus Spa—a traditional Korean, women-only, nude spa—understandably don't want them in their spa. Their female employees and female clients don't want them in their spa either. But Washington State insists on them. And now so does the Ninth Circuit. You may think that swinging dicks shouldn't appear in a judicial opinion. You're not wrong. But as much as you might understandably be shocked and displeased to merely encounter that phrase in this opinion, I hope we all can agree that it is far more jarring for the unsuspecting and exposed women at Olympus Spa— some as young as thirteen—to be visually assaulted by the real thing. Sometimes, it feels like the supposed adults in the room have collectively lost their minds. Woke regulators and complicit judges seem entirely willing, even eager, to ignore the consequences that their Frankenstein social experiments impose on real women and young girls. As you could imagine, this line infuriated Judge VanDyke's colleagues.
His response to their feigned outrage is hilarious. However, I was disappointed that he didn't write he wasn't a gynecologist but knew a cvnt when he saw one.
Good old fashioned sex, betrayal and politics without the Epstein angle. At least I don't think so.

Although the purchase has been confirmed as legitimate, both Gale and Jouppien maintained it was merely an addition to Gale’s collection of historical artifacts and not an endorsement of the Führer. In a report from CBC, Jouppien added: “It’s not to be taken as an insult to any anti-racist group,” Jouppien told CBC News. “It was collected in the sincere interest of history.” Jouppien added that “not many people have the resources [Gale has]” to preserve rare items and that his collection is a contribution to history. Jouppien also claimed that Gale’s historical collection was worth millions of dollars.If I were a rare book collector, this would be something that would interest me. And if that bothers you. I'm not sorry. There is nothing to apologize for.
Why would you have someone there to protect the public asked Karen The Mayor. Well since you won't allow concealed carry this is the next best thing.
Waterloo Mayor Dorothy McCabe said she was “surprised and shocked” to learn a Waterloo Regional Police Service sniper was deployed as part of law enforcement’s efforts to manage an unsanctioned street party during St. Patrick’s Day weekend in the city’s university district. Waterloo police confirmed to The Canadian Press that a photo and video circulating of a sniper monitoring the St. Patrick’s Day crowd Saturday was indeed a Waterloo police officer, but at first did not answer questions about why one was deployed. Police later said in an email late Sunday that “mass casualty considerations” were part of the safety plan for the event. “The magnitude of unfortunate mass casualty events that have occurred across North America and around the world in recent decades have shaped emergency response strategies for all large gatherings,” Chief Mark Crowell said in the email.It's not like Muzzies attack infidels during any secular or religious celebrations.

The GOP’s Anti-Trans Crusade Already Forced Me to Move My Family. I’m Still Not Sure We’re Safe.
We thought our new state would be a haven after the last one turned on us. But I know the signs, and they aren’t looking good. In May of 2020, my family moved so I could attend a clinical mental health doctorate program at the University of Iowa. I remember being so excited about the program’s LGBTQ Counseling Clinic, where I would be the assistant director and where I would get to focus on providing much-needed therapeutic care for queer folks. It was the deciding factor for me on what program I ended up attending. At that time, I would never have predicted that the same clinic that had drawn me to Iowa would no longer exist when my family would be forced to flee the state in 2025. At the beginning of our Iowa adventure, my kids were 9 and 12, and the plan was to stay at least until our oldest graduated from high school in 2026, if not longer. A few years into our time in the Hawkeye State, my oldest child came to us because they wanted to start on puberty blockers, since they were trans, and wanted to delay bodily changes that didn’t match their gender. When my child first came out, I was worried that because I’m a trans clinician who works in gender-affirming mental health care, others would assume my child’s choices were influenced by me. I was very careful to make sure they knew that whether to pursue gender-affirming care was entirely their own choice. The most important thing was that they knew we loved them and that we would support whatever choice they made.

Instead of cooling off, Jablonski pulled a Glock 9mm from his waistband and pointed it at the man, saying, “I don’t fucking care.” Jablonski, police reported, fired one round into the air. It was illegal for Jablonski to possess a handgun since his rap sheet includes a 2012 felony conviction (for battery on a law enforcement officer). He has also been convicted of DUI; disorderly conduct; theft; resisting an officer with violence; and violating probation.

After nearly a week of marathon negotiations in Manhattan, players say revenue sharing and housing remain the biggest sticking points as the league pushes for a deal by Monday.
Perhaps I am mistaken, but the last I heard that this rag tag band of lesbians, rainbow warriors and druggies weren't making a profit.
Maybe that's what the argument is about. The players want revenue sharing, the league wants to give them profit sharing.

Right, they want the comparison to be solely on Men versus Women's "pro b-ball". Caitlin brought in big numbers, but with this Team USA, she went 2-7 the other day from 3 point land (but that is below her average). She is a good point guard and ball handler and gets a lot of cool assists, but not that great from her patented "logo three" signature shot. Several others are better.
BUT Caitlan does draw crowds and attention, so is worth the big bucks. And she gets it in ad revenue as well. Is it racist for her fans to watch (white) her? Well maybe, but not more racist than for the black/lesbie players to trying to destroy Caitlan.

Posted by: Skip at March 16, 2026 10:42 PM (Ia/+0)
I heard that once living in the edge of Fort Worth. It wasn’t a tornado, rather straight line winds in excess of 100 mph. (One local compared it to a tornado laying on its side). If someone had been standing next to me I could have shouted as loudly as possible and they wouldn’t have heard me. The entire building, a multi unit condo, was violently vibrating.
I should have been scared, but I was too awestruck by the raw power I was seeing. Next day I was looking around and found the remains of a large billboard, mounted on 4 I-beams, which had been ripped out of the ground and tossed about 200 yards from where it started.

Revenue sharing, though, has been the biggest sticking point for months. The players union's last known proposal called for about 26% of gross revenue, while the league has offered players more than 70% of net revenue.
---------
I can see the importance of gross vs net revenue. If WNBA players got 70% of net revenue, they'd owe the league about 30 million dollars.

What FBI Found In Montana Defies All Explanation
https://youtu.be/fHzXhg_2bNs
31:40, but I listen at 1.25x. Kinda interesting, if true. But two problems common to the strange, dark, and mysterious videos. Okay, three problems. Somewhat misleading click-bait title (doesn't so much "defy explanation" as not have one). Abrupt, inconclusive ending. And an artificial narrator that. Does not aways. Follow sentence. Structure.
Gaaah. When I coulda been commingling with Morons.

But "The West" in Europe still believes in freedom, or are they fully submissive to Islam, so their oligarchs can enrich themselves with cheap labor (not counting the cost of murder of social norms).
Exception is USA ... Right? Well, except for the DeepState, and Islam invasion, DEI absurdities, and infinite debt.

I wonder if The Incredibles who moved to Iowa and then fled for the sake of their trans kid are going to wind up in Albania or Ireland at some point. For fun, I've been watching TikToks of Americans who fled the fascist regime in America, and you've never seen such a bunch of dodos much less fucked-up ideologues.
Take this quiz to see if you're a world traveler!!!
Would you --
1 - Plan to take the train from the airport to your destination in another city, with 10 large suitcases? (wrong answer buzzer, they had to rent a van)
2 - Put gasoline into a rented diesel vehicle? (sputter, choke, 600 euros)
3 - Use someone else's bin to dump your trash? (local anger)
One family did all these things within, like a month of their arrival.

I think the do-gooders and wannabe saviors over the years have actually made Haiti a far worse place than it would have been otherwise. They have trained the populace to expect solutions to their problems to come from outside, and they’ve given up any thought of fixing things themselves.
Yes, without outside aid there would have been one or more instances of mass death; but then the survivors would have had to pull their heads out of their asses and think seriously about how to Not Do That Again. And they would have solved their own problems.

Grok - Jeremiah Curtin, the 19th-century folklorist and mythologist (known for works like Myths and Folk-Lore of Ireland and Creation Myths of Primitive America), does not provide a direct retelling or unique variant of Helen of Troy's classical Greek origin story (the birth from Leda's egg after Zeus's swan seduction). Instead, in his 1898 book Creation Myths of Primitive America, Curtin discusses a Native American myth from the Wintu people titled "Norwan." He explicitly compares it to the Helen of Troy tale, noting that it "recalls the Helen of Troy tale" (or "recalls forcibly the Helen of Troy tale, both in its general plan and in many particulars").In this context, Curtin uses the Helen story as a parallel or analogue rather than recounting her own origin directly. The Norwan myth involves a beautiful woman (Norwan) whose desirability sparks a massive war among the "first people," similar to how Helen's abduction/elopement with Paris triggers the Trojan War.

Of course the first thing to do - after ensuring maximalist demands on regime change are met - is to go fix and fuel and the power system ourselves. Given that cracks/uppityness are appearing with just severe power problems, seems a decent bet that a dark grid and the widespread economic and social consequences would be enough to crumble the current order.
And I imagine we'd make it clear that any violence to try and cling to power will be met with decisive force by us. Our cred at removing/vaporizing adversary leadership is at a particular high at the moment.

In conflict-zone aid distribution, depending on circumstances, you have to be willing to eat significant % diversion to reach people in need ("cost of doing business"). I would expect and hope if the US does major short-term humanitarian aid in Cuba it does so where we have total control and boots on the ground to enforce our will.

Only a couple-three more days for BIL... App't Thursday with some help agency. Hope they find a place for him. If not, he's going to a homeless shelter. Photo ID should arrive any day now, and then I'll take him to get a phone & his account straightened out. With luck, they can retrieve his call log and recover some phone numbers for him that way. (Doubt his lost phone is remotely accessible by now, it's been 'gone' for over a month.) Maybe he can dump himself on somebody else if he doesn't like the shelter... he'll be trespassing if he comes back here.

That tracks. When there is POS system with a faulty chip reader, and it won't let you slide the card until it demands it (after failing a couple times), I joke that it's a "socialist" card reader: whatever is not mandatory, is forbidden. In Mussolini's formulation: "All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state."
Note the socialist equivalence of "outside" with "against." Your personal economic independence is experienced by the socialist state as a mortal threat, equivalent to counterrevolutionary armed insurrection -- and they will in fact murder you for it, then celebrate their virtue.

The first says, “I like accountants on my operating table. When you open them up, everything inside is numbered.”
The second replies, “Yeah, but you should try electricians. Everything inside them is colour-coded.”
The third says, “No, librarians are the best. Everything inside them is in alphabetical order.”
The fourth chimes in, “I like construction workers. Those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end and when the job takes longer than you said it would.”
The fifth surgeon shuts them all up: “You’re all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There’s no guts, no heart, no balls, no brains, and no spine. There are only two moving parts—the mouth and the asshole—and they’re interchangeable.”

I let a friend, who has a mini-lap pool, watch my Lab once.
She would swim for like 30 minutes every morning and she said as soon as she got out of the pool, my Lab would jump in and swim for an hour. Apparently, she'd even bark non-stop if my friend tried to turn off the jets to get her out.

It is a bit strange, you get used to constant nerve pain where the absence of it takes getting used to again.
But, as I was warned, now as the spine readjusts, I do have some neuro-muscular pain below the operation site. Sometimes that increased pressure causes the need for additional surgery down the spine which is why I put it off until losing strength and dexterity.

Holy moly. This is very interesting. March 13, 2026, in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia regarding the long-standing case *United States v. Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) et al.* (Case No. 1:91-cr-00355).
The entry identifies that a Department of Justice attorney, specifically from the Criminal Division, has formally entered an appearance in the multi-decade litigation. While the court docket has been dormant for many years, This is potential extremely important due to the historical role BCCI played as a primary vehicle for CIA money laundering, clandestine funding of intelligence operations, and its deep entanglement with global elites throughout the 1980s including Epstein.

While the pipeline can theoretically handle 7 million bpd, the actual loading capacity at the Yanbu terminal may be lower, with some estimates suggesting it could be around 3 to 4.5 million bpd.

The Persian Immortal Guard, also known as the Immortals, was the elite infantry unit of the Achaemenid Empire, established by Cyrus the Great. This unit was known for its unwavering commitment to duty, maintaining a constant strength of 10,000 soldiers through a system of immediate replacements for any fallen or incapacitated members. The Immortals were distinguished by their distinctive colorful robes, golden armor, and ornate helmets, symbolizing fertility, abundance, and royal authority. They played a crucial role in pivotal battles such as Marathon and Thermopylae, earning respect across the ancient world for their discipline and martial excellence. The Immortals embodied the idea of enduring power through discipline, responsibility, and loyalty, and their legacy continues to be honored in modern Iran as a symbol of national defense and the eternal vigilance required to protect sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Yes, for the Robo-Ump. I cant recall every detail, but the strike zone will be a plane at the front-to-back center of home plate, 17 inches wide (width of home plate), between X and Y percent of each individual player's height. I can't recall the exact X and Y values. I guess they are about whatever the current definition of the strike zone is, between the middle of the chest and top of the knees. However, each players height entered into the program will be his standing-straight height without cleats. Each player on all the 40-man rosters are being measured now, during spring training. This system has been used for several years in the minor leagues. The MLB players are not all-in for this; the owners are and that's what counts. You can get all the details if you google robo-ump.
My prayers are up for your mother, Doof.

It used to be. But the top of the zone has been shrinking downward for 15-20 years. Analytics worship dictates an uppercut swing for ideal launch angle so the strike zone is low and small now.

Yes, the core facts check out via Illinois State Bar records, http://Patch.com, Daily Herald, and Northfield police reports: Irina Pavchinskaya-Cedano (aka DefiyantlyFree / Insurrection Barbie) was disbarred May 2017 after pleading guilty to felony theft (~$2k forged
idk the details of what the rest of the "theological" controversy is, but afaik, this is a legit finding about InsurrectionBarbie. Ted Cruz seemed to like her comments, for some reason, so the controversy is of interest.
The other side seems to be about whether "the Jews" (Israel?) is forever "chosen by God". Seems clear that Jesus saw the Pharisees were corrupted, so no, "Israel" is not (all) the chosen ones, while all others are not necessarily (infidels?).
But I "stand with Israel" because they stand against "Islam" (our common enemy), or at least against those not joining the "Abraham Accords". And that alliance seems based on a more "pragmatic Western Islam" than the "radical Islam".
It's all an enigma, wrapped in memes.

Mostly I side with evangelicals ... BUT, I just don't believe "Israel" was ever God's one and only "chosen people", despite the OT language. There were many times the faithful (the remnant) had to hide in caves from the corrupt ("Jewish") leaders. So even in OT times, birthright was not sufficient.
There are "end times" and some "Jerusalem" I guess, I'm not well versed on Revelation stuff, but Hebrews says "there is no more Jew nor Gentile" ... and I just can't believe it is all about bloodline, even in OT times. (JC mentions the Good Samaritan as opposed to the "Israelite" being a "friend")
But I'll keep working on the details ... there is always the Resurrection of the Just for good people, as opposed to the Resurrection of the unjust for judgment and a second death. I know where to put the rapists and murderers of good people as far as that goes.

I am looking at things with a fresh perspective and really relearning through a Church that I truly feel an amazing connection. We have been doing an entire series on Moses and I am honestly loving it, it ends next week, but I do feel this covenant exits- god doesn’t go back on his promises. But again, I am learning and relearning so much right now, I am not the expert on this at all. Our pastor breaks it down in such meaningful and understandable ways. I wish I could share the joy and the peace I am getting after each sermon with everyone, it’s been an incredible experience.

I never heard of "integralism" till today.
"Integralism... is an interpretation of Catholic social teaching that argues the principle that the Catholic faith should be the basis of public law and public policy within civil society, wherever the preponderance of Catholics within that society makes this possible."
That seems like Islam ... "when you get a majority, get off the bus/train, impose Sharia/Catholicism". It assumes One (human) Moral Authority is Correct, if it attains a majority?
USA was founded by Protestants, those that opposed One Central Leader, and were willing to let The People choose their own destiny/future. Protestants opposed a central King, Catholics accepted a central Pope, England accepted a central King.

Luther made some good points against the established church, but the Lutheran church of my youth has fully succumbed. Establishments in general SUCK. Constant "revolution" seems like the Mencken Theme of this site, to me.

Trump: I'm Thinking of Seizing Iran's Critical Port Island, Kharg
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth confirmed that
American industrial production
of sick memes was up 1700%
I don't believe Trump is thinking about American boots on the ground, but the leftwing foreign propaganda press will do anything, say anything to stop this president and prop up any anti-American, anti-human regime to spite Trump.
President Trump is working to assemble a coalition of countries to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and hopes to announce it later this week, four sources tell Axios. Trump is also weighing a seizure of Iran's critical oil depot on Kharg Island -- a move that would require U.S. boots on the ground -- if tankers remain bottled up in the Persian Gulf, U.S. officials say. Why it matters: Oil and gas prices are rising as Iran's blockade of the Gulf's narrow strait drags on, choking off a significant share of the world's crude supply. Iran is blocking Gulf countries from exporting their oil while allowing tankers picking up Iranian crude to pass freely -- keeping its own oil flowing to China and other countries. As long as the blockade holds and Gulf oil is restricted, Trump could not end the war even if he wanted to, a source with knowledge of the situation said.
Trump answers critics: "These are naive people that frankly are stupid." In related news, the terrorist who tried to blow up a synagogue full of Jewish children was the brother of a Hezballah terror-commander killed by the Israelis in Gaza. Who the US let into this country, because we have a violent Fifth Column which is always recruiting new soldiers to attack us from within.
Driving the news: In a Truth Social post Saturday, Trump claimed the U.S. and several other countries will send warships to the Gulf to reopen commercial shipping, and called on China, France, Japan, South Korea and the U.K. to help. On Sunday, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One he "demands" that NATO countries and other oil-importing nations -- including China -- help the U.S. secure the strait. "We are talking to other countries about policing the straits. It will be nice to have other countries policing with us. We will help. We are getting a good response," Trump said. Trump said the U.S. is in talks with seven countries and mentioned some had already declined, while stressing that the mission "will be small" because Iran has "very little firepower" left. ... "Most of this oil isn't our oil -- it goes to other countries. So if they want it and they want the price to come down, they need to help out," the official said. ... The intrigue: Trump is drawn to the idea of seizing Kharg Island outright because it would constitute "an economic knockout of the regime" -- essentially defunding Tehran, a third U.S. official said.
Meanwhile: the memes are flowing like wine.
The brother of a terrorist who rammed a vehicle into a Michigan Jewish preschool was a Hezbollah commander, Israel Defense Forces have said. Ayman Muhammad Ghazali, 41, was shot dead after driving the vehicle into Temple Israel in West Bloomfield Township, Mich., on Thursday. His brother, Ibrahim Muhammad Ghazali, was responsible for managing weapons operations within a specialized branch of Hezbollah's Badr Unit, the IDF said in a statement Sunday morning. This unit of the Lebanese terror group is responsible for launching hundreds of rockets toward Israeli civilians throughout the recent war with Iran, the IDF said.
Ghazali's two brothers, a niece, and a nephew were killed in an Israeli airstrike on March 5 in the town of Mashgharah, Lebanon, just days before the attack, a local official told AP Friday. The family had sat down for their fast-breaking meal during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan when they were struck. Ghazali, who was allowed into to the US in 2011 as the spouse of a US citizen, was granted US citizenship under President Obama in 2016, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
After crashing his car, which was packed with fireworks and gasoline jugs, he exchanged fire with an armed security guard before eventually fatally shooting himself after becoming stuck in the blazing vehicle.

The straits will have to remain open for traffic. That's a given. We're stuck with that, now.
The destruction we've wreaked already on Kharg Island might have to be repaired - if lower fuel prices in the West and a semblance of an economy for Iran are a priority. I don't think they're critical factors, though I'm not in charge, so who cares?
An American military presence on the island would be effectively permanent. It would invite attacks on US military and private sector personnel by the mainland sandmaggots. It's a flashpoint.
My inclination would be to maintain the naval presence and just menace the Island from the sea until these people do or do not get their shit together.
That naval presence is a needful thing in any event, and it can probably achieve the objective without committing troops, even in that limited area.

Or maybe Trump is trying to gather a "coalition of the willing" or some such, idk. There is still some threat as seen in the insurance costs. Trump said he would have USA (or its insurers?) provide the needed insurance coverage at a reasonable rate.
(other "conspiracy" folks think this is about UK/England control of oil in the area, established under BP in the early 1900s. They think this is a final resolution that started with out revolutionary war. I have not sussed that out just yet).

A couple of things: the guy got an immigrant visa to the United States on the basis he was getting married to a US citizen, but was living alone.
So, what happened to the wife? It would not surprise me in the slightest if this was a fake marriage to get him into the US.
We also need to determine - stat - who else in the US is related to Hezbollah commanders, and have them have a little chat with the FBI indicating that they are being watched, and so they can be put into preventive detention if there are more incidents like this.

Three protesters were arrested Wednesday after a confrontation outside the Arkansas Governor's Mansion in Little Rock during an event featuring Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk. Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders hosted the event to promote an education initiative encouraging "Club America" chapters at high schools. "I had the privilege of calling [Charlie Kirk] a friend and seeing firsthand the movement he built," Sanders said. "Bringing Club America chapters to Arkansas high schools will help continue that mission and inspire the next generation of leaders." About 30 protesters gathered outside the mansion, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported. Arkansas State Police said a physical altercation broke out between protesters and event attendees. Videos posted online show the chaos escalating as protesters, bystanders, and law enforcement join the scuffle.

This year's design--debuting exclusively with Vanity Fair--is especially unique. The theater has been designed to represent a calming garden courtyard, with greenery woven throughout it. It's an ode to this year's pointedly handmade theme--"A Human Touch"--as well as an attempt to create what feels like a relaxing space in a chaotic world. "There is an unsettled nature around the climate right now, and there's just something very calming about being surrounded by architecture, but having this space for trees to grow," Billingsley tells Vanity Fair. "We are exploring the contrast between the organic and the rigidly architectural, and that creates the feeling that life can exist anywhere."And beneath the veneer: Here's the reality underneath what Hollywood wants you to see:

LHGrey™️
@grey4626 Ahhh...the Dolby Theatre the morning after: a once-hallowed coliseum of counterfeit grandeur now gutted into a rancid abattoir of shattered bottles, crumpled prestige, and the stench of three hours' worth of performative excess. This isn't "cleanup." This is the autopsy report on Hollywood itself...pathological, terminal, and perfectly representative of the psychic refuse that slithered through its velvet seats. These are not artists. They are a collective personality disorder in couture: narcissistic cluster-fucks whose grandiosity is so brittle that they cannot even contain their own waste. Every empty champagne flute, every discarded gift bag, every sticky condom wrapper of ego left behind screams the same truth...these motherfuckers shit where they eat, then swan off to the afterparty while the invisible brown hands they pretend to champion on stage are left to mop up the evidence of their moral incontinence. It's textbook projection pathology: preach "diversity," "sustainability," "empathy" for the cameras, then treat the working class like disposable wet wipes for your celebrity bullshit. Psychologically, it's exquisite in its lethality. Decades of unchecked adulation have produced a sub-species of human whose prefrontal cortex has atrophied into pure entitlement. They are incapable of object permanence when it comes to consequence; the mess simply ceases to exist once they exit the building. This photo is the mirror they refuse to face...literal filth mirroring the spiritual gangrene rotting beneath the Botox and the scripted tears. Hollywood isn't "problematic." It's a metastatic tumor: malignant, self-replicating, and leaving necrotic sludge in its wake for the proles to excise. Fuck their golden statues. Fuck their standing ovations. Fuck their three-hour circle-jerk of self-congratulation. This trashed mausoleum is the only honest Oscar they earned last night...the trophy of their own degeneracy, captured in high definition for anyone with eyes and a spine to see. The immigrants they exploit will clean it. The rest of us will remember it. And the Hollywood trash will pretend, once again, that none of it ever happened.

After the game, clean-up crew divided into two teams, one for each half of the stands. Crew on the Japanese side had almost literally nothing to do, place was as clean as it was before the game. They mostly napped in the seats, and taunted their colleagues on the other side of the stadium, who had plenty of cleaning to do.

NBC has a shocking poll that reflects the shift in the Democratic Party. Today, only 13 percent of Democrats have a positive view of Israel. 17 percent favor Israel over the Palestinians.
I think we have solved the woke right mystery….they need an audience to keep them employed and if this is the direction our country is headed, they need to be aligned. Our rewriting of history is paying off dividends for this crowd, isn’t it?
This is just scary.

No, it was completely foreseeable. Go back 30 years ago and you could see how the constant accusations of anti-Semitism any time a conservative piped up was grating on people. There was also the Crown Heights example, and instead of addressing actual bigotry in the Dem coalition, the leaders decided to just ignore it.
Actually, they continued to support it, tolerating it and funding organizations that pushed it because it brought them needed votes. And so here we are.

My husband and I had my immigration interview at the US Consulate in Montreal, we stayed 2 days and really loved it. We went in Aug, weather was perfect, everyone spoke English, taxi drivers were crazy and plenty of shopping and friendly people.
Flying onto the Island of Montreal is exciting and the death-defying taxi ride from the airport to the hotel was a flat fee through highways being expanded and wannabee race car drivers! We wished we had planned a longer visit.

All Nine Antifa/Trantifa Terrorsts Convicted by Federal Court; This is the First Time Antifa/Trantifa Has Been Convicted of Domestic Terrorism
The terrorist attack took place on July 4, 2025. Wikipedia calls this clear domestic terror attack an "incident."
The 2025 Alvarado ICE facility incident, alternately the Prairieland ICE detention center incident, occurred at the Prairieland Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas, United States, on the evening of July 4, 2025. Officials say that eleven individuals, some in black clothing or body armor, set off fireworks and vandalized parked vehicles and a guard structure outside the center. A person in a nearby wooded area allegedly opened fire with a rifle after local police responded; an Alvarado police officer was shot in the neck and released from the hospital a short time later. Eleven individuals were arrested soon afterward; within the ensuing month, the alleged shooter was arrested after a manhunt, and five alleged associates were arrested. On October 16, 2025, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) unsealed terrorism charges against two suspects, and in a social media post, United States Attorney General Pam Bondi said the two men were part of "antifa", which she characterized as a "left wing terrorist organization." Major media organizations said this is the first time the DOJ has charged anyone with terrorism in connection with alleged antifa activities, mirroring statements made by FBI director Kash Patel. In October, an eighteenth person was arrested on a state charge of aiding in the commission of terrorism.[3] In January 2026, a nineteenth person was arrested. Supporters of the defendants refer to them as the Prairieland 19. Several defendants say they believed they were attending a peaceful "noise demonstration" and had no knowledge of any planned violence.Sure. Nine of the terrorists were just convicted.
In a first, nine Texas Antifa members found guilty on federal terror charges
In a historical first, nine people have been convicted by a federal jury on domestic terrorism charges connected to Antifa. The group was accused of being a part of the North Texas Antifa Cell, and was found guilty of rioting, using weapons and explosives, providing material support to terrorists, obstruction, and attempted murder, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Texas announced Friday evening. The group was convicted of the attempted murder of an Alvarado, Texas, police officer and correctional officers at the Prairieland ICE Detention Center occurring on July 4, 2025. The convictions came after a 12-day trial beginning Feb. 23, which included 45 witnesses and more than 210 exhibits. The first conviction of its kind comes six months after The Center Square asked President Donald Trump if he would designate Antifa a domestic terror organization following the rise of left-wing political violence. In response, the president officially designated the group a terror organization a week later. Several Antifa cells in Europe have since been designated foreign terror organizations.

has always been the plan. a bloodbath is how they can take control. they already tried it in Minnesota.
“Accused of being part of Antifa” That’s all anyone can ever say, cause Antifa isn’t a really organization.
Guilty of being against fascism? Aren't we all?! That's an odd thing to accuse someone of unless you are a fascist. ...but Antifa doesn't exist... so I am very confused.
Wearing black clothing, using signal app, turning off your phones tracking, bringing weapons to a protest but leaving them in your car. This is all it took to "prove" that it was a coordinated attack by terrorists.
Just for reference, your first sentence is what a lot of people do for protests these days. A lot of protest organizers actually recommend you do these things as it makes it harder to identify you in the increased surveillance state we live in.
Branding matters. I don't know who decided shortening "anti-fascist" to "antifa" was a good idea, but they absolutely rat fucked things by doing it.

Meaning...There was one shooter, but a whole bunch of people who participated in the set up of the shooting.
So, all of them got charged with attempted murder, not just the shooter.
And this is where I hope I am wrong, but only the shooter got convicted of attempted murder. His co-conspirators got convicted on basically aiding and abetting, but were found not guilty of attempted murder.
Am I right? Or wrong?

I guarantee they were all offered plea deals: Turn on Antifa and walk.
They all rolled the dice that this was Portland, OR. Betting the guild of commie lawyers would save them.
The fact that their lawyer tried, clumsily and stupidly, to force a mistrial, should've clued them in to the caliber of attorney they'd drawn.

See, to read their screeds, it was just a protest.
That took place late at night.
And they all just happened to be wearing black.
Seriously, that's the sole reason they are all blaming for the conviction--that they wore black.
Not the fireworks shot at the ICE vehicles and building.
Or the vandalism to draw the officers out.
Not the ambush of the officer when he did come outside.
Not that he was shot in the neck.
Not the texts and other messages among them coordinating the whole ambush in advance.
Nope.
Just a little, innocent, harmless protest on the Fourth of July.

Earth tones? AntiFa has been doing the black thing since 1929. Because commies hate their Marxist siblings, fascists. NAZIs were the ones in earth tones. Italian fascists were also in black. Honestly, it doesn't appear all that well organized even back then.

Or they can settle for the scum who will settle for 4/10s. Those men (and some women) will enable the delusions. Might have started for these women in their childhood actually. Not every man is Uncle Knobby but those are the first men they met, and now every man who approaches them is scum.

In one of the early Antifa riots in Berkeley against the Patriots and Proud Boys one of the distraction agents was a fairly attractive woman who was getting in the face of a patriot. At some point he just hauled up and punched her in the jaw and knocked her block off.

#OscarsSoWoke
Before that: Actor Jerry O'Connell said his wife and daughters became physically violent when he said that the Democrats should have had a primary rather than coronate sure-loser Kamala Harris.
He wasn't even saying he supported Trump. He was a bitter Democrat angry that the party had shot itself in the foot. And for this, his wife and daughters began cursing him and became physical.The Vigilant Fox 🦊
@VigilantFox Jerry O'Connell reveals his liberal daughters were "filled with RAGE" and "became PHYSICAL" with him when he criticized Kamala Harris as a candidate. O'CONNELL: "If I say this, will I stay married? Blow it over here." MAHER: "Sounds like you're going to blow it over here." O'CONNELL: "The night of the [2024] election... I was watching late at night, the returns, and I'll be honest with you, I didn't think Trump was going to win. I live in California. I didn't think he was going to win from what I was hearing." "I said something along the lines of, like, 'There was no planning.' 'This is what they get.' 'There should have been a primary.'" "I said something along those lines. I was just spitballing ideas as to--it was a shock, you know?" "My wife and daughters, without saying anything, became physical with me. They were filled with rage." "So if I am being careful with you in how I say things... I live with not one, not two, but three people who, if I made any kind of joke, they'd become very angry with me, you know?" Once O'Connell said this, Maher saw a man who had completely lost control of his household. He bluntly told him that living in fear of your own family's reactions is no way to live: "I don't want to tell you how to live your life, but I couldn't live that way... I say what I truly think. And if it makes you angry, I'm sorry, we'll have to work that out." "I am not going to tuck my tail between my legs and just shut the f*ck up."

As you said in your final video, its not that the winners were bad movies (well most of them) but that they weren't the BEST movie that year and didn't win for being the most entertaining, beloved, and memorable.
Deer Hunter is well done, but its not like people would line up to see it re-released or go out of their way to buy a DVD copy. Nobody stops channel surfing to watch it.

You play make believe for a living. Make believe and dress up. You say what you’re told to say, stand where you’re to to stand, cry, laugh and scream on command.
Are you capable of an original thought? And if you are, why do you think anyone cares?

That's not a distinction I made.
I don't know what other people treasure, what the masses are looking up again after years of being released.
I just know that the Academy has never been about that. Ever. From the beginning, it was about controlling the direction of the industry.
And it made sense when that direction was actually aligned with making money. Now...control of the Oscars is control of...the Oscars. The studios spend much more money on slop for the masses that they don't think will ever win awards. Because the industry has essentially bifurcated in that regard.

The woman I argued with on another blog two days ago must be in quite the snit as she's vanished and raking her dirt and leaves and saving bugs. And I was nice as I can debate nice and Southern. It was not like I called her names or got mean.
I reckon she felt she could go against the wind and state her nonsense of the two fuel planes sadly crashing in mid air. Her "sources" said Cent Com is lying and a missile shot the plane down. I said otherwise and that no one knows, but I doubted the Sec of War and our President would lie to us.
She fired back that I was gaslighting (which I will never understand) and needed a mental health check. Lol. Maybe I do, but I'm basically harmless.

Made little money. One of the peaks of Hollywood giving a bauble to the black part of the industry to try and get them to be quiet now.
It keeps not working, though, for some reason. Instead, they had to invite thousands more people into the Academy.

She was quite hot with a rocking body a few years ago. But the last few years haven't been kind. She looks more masculine now, almost a tranny, and is so painfully thin she looks anorexic.
I don't remember the last movie I saw her in, but I was like "wtf happened to her?"
Unless she plans to work out and bulk up for the role, there's no way she'll have the imposing physicality to play Athena.

Eh.
Sinners is massively derivative. It'll be as effervescent as Black Panther.
It's more a problem with our fractured, balkanized culture that individual movies don't have that cultural cache anymore.
You need to be in the zeitgeist for longer. A few weeks is an instant, half a news cycle, forgotten by a flush of new memes and things that we must all pay attention to.
Television series are probably the only thing that can have that cache anymore because they last for so long and come back year after year.

It is better to lead by example and you can bring stable logic and sense into the relationship rather than trying to reason someone out of a position that they never used reason to get there.
The predominant leftist (and Muzzie) emotion is ANGER, and that makes anyone challenging that anger doomed to failure at that moment.
You have to wear it away by erosion over time--that requires holding frame and not descending into nor feeding their anger.
The rise and fall of the trans movement is an example of emotion driven policy championed by AWFULs that is now becoming a sad clown show spiraling toward oblivion.

I always thought a prime Natasha Henstridge would be perfect as Helen. She was practically supernatural in both face and figure, not a bad actress, and had some physicality. Sadly, it didn't last forever. She's still making C-rated movies, almost unrecognizable.

It's not a very good horror movie. I doubt it will have a lasting following among its most natural audience (horror fans).
And it's pretty ugly in its depiction of black culture. If you were a closeted racist who wanted to portray blacks as feral, I don't know what you'd do differently than Sinners. It's thoroughly unpleasant in this respect.

I thought GoM was underrated and quite good. But she was badly miscast. It was jarring to have a movie set in a dirty, gritty, dangerous dystopia, and the lead actress looked like statuesque airbrushed perfection like she was going to an Oscar party. They barely even put any dust on her.

The DEI quota thing for Best Picture noms is frickin' hilarious. Especially since the Academy ignores the DEI requirement at the drop of a hat, when the politics and star power is lined up correctly.
Oppenheimer is the perfect example. Pasty white cast playing pasty white characters, directed/shot/edited by pasty white filmmakers, NOTHING DEI about the film at all.

Not exactly. The Vampires talk about piece and love and that crap and don't care at all about skin color. They made the lead Vampire Irish I assume to make it clear he isn't supposed to be a Klan stand in.
Note they do also have conflict with the Klan separately.
There is a also the point in it where the first of the group of main characters to get converted is also the one who is white, but I'm not sure if that is supposed to be a political message or not.

Propagandists focus on fanning anger as to get their supporters to focus their anger on specific targets.

The 90s were Hollywood becoming "fake indie" before they let the indies completely take over.
If they had installed people dedicated to its destruction, the Academy couldn't have done it any better.
They rejected popularity except in certain specific cases starting in the 80s. The case study I use is Ghostbusters. Every loved it. Made a shit ton of money. Perfect for the Oscars.
But...it was the wrong kind of movie.
The book end was The Dark Knight 23 years later. Again, the wrong kind of movie was liked and had made money. The Academy couldn't allow that.

Yep. Once you dehumanize someone as evil, then you can attack any attribute that 'evil' person has and get others to join in. Root of tribalism and social herd psychology to punish the heretic, outsider, etc. And sometimes that provokes a bad response by the object of hatred depending on their internal frame. Tell someone they are evil all the time and the worst person in the world, some come to believe it.

The New Ayatollah is Probably Gay and What Is Even More Disqualifying, He's Also Dead
President Trump was stunned to learn last week that US intelligence indicates new Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei may be gay -- and that his father, the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, feared his suitability to rule the Islamic Republic for that reason, The Post can reveal. Trump couldn't contain his surprise and laughed aloud when he was briefed on the intel, according to sources. Others in the room also found it "hilarious" and joined the president's reaction, while one senior intelligence official "has not stopped laughing about it for days," said one person familiar with the briefing. The shocking claim was described to The Post by two intelligence community officials and a third person close to the White House. All three sources say the implausible-sounding allegation is viewed as credible by US spy agencies, rather than false information intended to undermine Khamenei, 56, who was selected to replace his dead father as supreme leader on March 8. Two of the sources said the intelligence indicated that Mojtaba, who earned the nickname "the power behind the robes" while serving as his aging dad's gatekeeper, has had a long-term sexual relationship with his childhood tutor.The power bottom under the robes more like
Recent reports say that he's in a coma following an airstrike and has no awareness that there's a war on or that he's confined to a hospital.
The third source said the intelligence indicated the affair was with a person who formerly worked for the Khamenei family. Mojtaba, who is believed to have been wounded in the same Feb. 28 airstrike that killed his father and other members of his family, has made "aggressive" sexual overtures to men caring for him, possibly while under the influence of heavy medication, one of The Post's sources said. US spy agencies do not have photographic evidence of Mojtaba Khamenei's alleged sexual attraction to men, but the sources insisted the tip is solid, with one saying it was "derived from one of the most protected sources that the government has." ... Mojtaba's purported sexual orientation had been whispered about inside Iran since at least the May 2024 helicopter crash that killed then-President Ebrahim Raisi, Ali Khamenei's presumed favorite to be the next supreme leader, sources said.
... Some elements of Mojtaba Khamenei's sex life have been reported before and may lend credence to the allegation. A classified US diplomatic cable from 2008, published by WikiLeaks, described Mojtaba being treated in the UK for impotence, though that report did not identify what may have caused the condition. The State Department file says Mojtaba married "relatively late in life" -- around age 30 -- "reportedly due to an impotency problem treated and eventually resolved during three extended visits to the UK, at Wellington and Cromwell Hospitals, London." "Mojtaba was expected by his family to produce children quickly, but needed a fourth visit to the UK for medical treatment; after a stay of two months, his wife became pregnant," the leaked file said.
... Homosexual conduct is illegal in Iran, though the government does allow surgical sex change operations, which some gay men reportedly are pressured into undergoing to avoid criminal penalties. Sodomy is a capital offense in the nation of 93 million people, with some gay Iranians infamously hanged from construction cranes as a warning to others. "In Iran, we don't have homosexuals," former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who is believed to be an ally of the younger Khamenei, claimed in 2007.
Iran's new Supreme Leader is unaware of the ongoing war in the Middle East and does not know he is the Islamic Republic's new leader, according to a new report. Mojtaba Khamenei, 56, succeeded his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, following his assassination on February 28. He is reportedly in a coma at the Sina University Hospital in Tehran following an airstrike, according to a source in Tehran. Due to his condition, he does not know of the ongoing war, the death of his family members, including his wife and son and of his own election as Supreme leader, the source said. Mojtaba is also reportedly in intensive care and surrounded by security officials, while a large section of the hospital has been sealed off to guard Iran's Supreme Leader. It is unclear whether Mojtaba was injured in the same air strikes which killed his 86-year-old father. A separate source told The Sun through secret messages sent to an exiled dissident based in London: 'One or two of his legs have been cut off. His liver or stomach has also ruptured. He is apparently in a coma as well.'Trump notes that there are reports he's dead:
President Trump on Mojtaba Khamenei: “A lot of people are saying that he's badly disfigured. They’re saying that he lost his leg... Other people are saying he’s dead. Nobody is saying he’s 100% healthy, and he hasn’t spoken... we don’t know if he’s dead.”pic.twitter.com/723pzlZaC4

Beginning when? There could be much more to this story.
Assuming it's true. This could be oppo propaganda from political opponents looking to deep-six him while he's on his deathbed (or dead).
While being outted as gay in the USA usually gets you more sex and free jars of lube, in Islamic countries being gay is considered a crime against nature. So anyone angling to get rid of this creep would want people to think he liked penis.
I think the guy is toast regardless.

I thought it was just a gag in Tropic Thunder when they let slip that the rapper was queer but apparently it was just commentary on the entire musical form.

It's only because capitalists won't sell oil to communists.
Communism only exists when capitalists sell them oil.
Therefore, the real villain in this story is America refusing to sell oil to communist Cuba.

A normal presidency would be toppled over, if the president laughed disdainly at someone for being gay
It’s breathtakingly stupid. Even for this administration. What’s funny is that intelligence and the NY Post think this story is credible or relevant in anyway.
While this is hilarious, I feel like there’s a real darkness in this: like they’re gloating about his wife and children being dead.
Hegseth has also been running his mouth about how US bombardments have left Khamenei physically disfigured. I feel like they’re trying to bait him into public appearances while they hide in bunkers.

BYD’s latest EVs can get close to full charge in just 12 minutes
The vehicle has a range of up to 800 km and will be launched in Europe next month and in the UK in the summer. Pricing is yet to be revealed.
The Chinese carmaker has aggressively expanded in the UK and Europe with affordable EVs and plug-in hybrids as sales in the home market have come under pressure from a government crackdown on pricing competition.
BYD sales in China plunged 41 percent in February compared with the same month in 2025, marking its biggest fall in five years.

Iranian exile
@MahyarTousi
delivers a SAVAGE takedown of Iran’s foreign minister claiming to be the “voice of the Iranians.”
TOUSI: “It’s like Tim Walz saying he’s the voice of Minnesota.”
“It’s not true.”
“Of course, it’s not just they’re not the voice of the Iranian people, he’s also not the voice of the Iranian regime.”
“Because…there is technically a difference between the government side, which is their foreign minister and the president—who’s a puppet—and the actual regime.”
“These guys are under the control of the regime, but they don’t have any power, they don’t even represent people, they were just there to nod and say yes to Khamenei.”
“Now he’s gone and his son is apparently a cardboard leader at this point and their job is just to go on TV and talk nonsense.”
“It’s just completely pointless and it’s hilarious to watch.”

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at March 16, 2026 01:52 PM (PYyV9)
Substance abuse is known to open people up to demonic oppression. When I see addict that gives a particularly hinky vibe, I assume there's a demonic presence trying to get its hooks in. Even if he (or she) isn't intoxicated at the moment, there could be lingering impairment from brain damage, creating vulnerability to influence and suggestion. And, that is highly likely to be compounded by a state of unrepentance for things done while drunk or high (or in order to get there), since genuine repentance would mean avoiding the conditions that led to it.
As I understand it, that's the entwined triple-whammy that makes addicts so vulnerable to demons: physical impairment of the brain, in a state of unrepentance, that they can't leave as long as they want their next fix more than getting right with Man and God... which an impaired dummy has trouble caring about.

An amber or a lager or a real pilsner, please, if I want something lighter.

Hey, how the fuck can the poor Persians be liberated from the murderous IRGC and basij? Those fuckers have enough weaponry and ammo to kill every single citizen times twenty, at least.
The haitian slave revolt lasted over a dozen years and it is estimated that between 100,000 and 350,000 blacks of african descent lost their lives from violence, disease, and starvation. I cannot imagine something like that happening in a place where we have free reign to fly warplanes over every square inch, but what do I know.
I heard it said that about a million of the persians are regime-adjacent. That's a lot to kill. The toll in the congo during the Second Congo War 1998-2003 was 4.5 million, again, many of the deaths from trauma other than kinetic conflict.

They need to be able to pay for their next delivery of gas. It's a very cutthroat business, since the customer is very price-sensitive, so they don't have any cushion. They need to raise prices if the next delivery is going to cost more, but they can only get away with raising prices if everyone else does too; so they all track the price of oil futures, and most survive to pump another day.

Axios "Journalist:" The White House Says That Everything Tucker Carlson Is Saying Is Bullshit
Marc CaputoAww, darn. That was the best part of this.
@MarcACaputo The online chatter about @TuckerCarlson looked like quite a story: he was being spied on by the CIA & knowing that, Trump treated him as a useful idiot by feeding him disinfo that fooled the Iranians about the looming Feb. 28 attack But top admin officials say it’s bullshit 1/2 2/2 Specifically, I'm told 1) there's no CIA investigation of Carlson 2) In his meeting, the two politely disagreed, & Trump held to his position Iran was a threat & didn't mislead him Said one source: Trump "wasn't participating in an op."
3) an addendum for folks saying that the CIA wouldn't investigate but would only refer to DOJ (or that the NSA or another intel agency made the reference), I checked that as well Same answer: no That said, DOJ/FBI is getting lots of citizen requests to investigate him re FARAWorth noting: If the CIA was reading Tucker's texts, it wouldn't be due to wiretapping his phone. It would be due to spying on the Iranian intelligence officials Tucker was chatting up:
Rod D. MartinWould it? I don't know if you can be prosecuted for telling a foreign government non-classified/open-source/personal observation stuff. Maybe you can be.
@RodDMartin 3h UPDATE ON THE TUCKER CARLSON FIASCO. So in case you missed it, Tucker announced by video that he has been informed that the CIA is reading his text messages and is preparing a criminal referral against him. Several things have happened since. First, you must understand: the CIA would never reveal that it had illegally wiretapped anybody, because why would they? Aside from possible punishments for guilty parties, the bigger issue is that an illegal wiretap would kill their case: "fruit of the poison tree". So if they're actually preparing a criminal referral, they've dotted their i's well enough to get past a judge. So how does the CIA surveil an American citizen? In most cases they can't, at least not legally. So if it was legal, they probably were NOT surveilling Tucker, but rather some foreign enemy with whom he was texting: he was talking to people he shouldn't have been, about things he shouldn't have said. That's about the only way you get there from here. A couple things have happened since: First, Buckley Carlson (Tucker's brother) took to X to give a lengthy definition of treason and explain why whatever his brother did wasn't that.
Hmmm.... Second, both Axios and the Administration have denied any of this is true. Which is...interesting. Both might have motives to deny Tucker's story (e.g., why would the Administration confirm a possible-but-future investigation the DOJ hasn't yet initiated?). But what if they're telling the truth? Buckley's post suggests Tucker was telling the truth, at least so far as he knew it, and the family is mounting a defense. Glenn Greenwald certainly thinks that's true. But Glenn could be wrong, and Axios could be right. So we now have three reasonably likely possibilities: 1. Tucker Carlson violated FARA, which is particularly ironic given how many times he's publicly called for FARA investigations of various people he dislikes for unsubstantiated allegations that they were on some foreign government's payroll. No one would more richly deserve this outcome than Tucker Carlson, IF this is what happened. 2. More sinister possibility: Tucker Carlson was aiding and abetting a foreign enemy (because that's a far more likely reason for the CIA to be involved, given the above-stated limitations). In this scenario, it is very likely that Donald Trump had Tucker to the Oval Office to feed him disinformation that then magically appeared in texts with Iranian leaders. ==> Just to be clear: that would NOT fall under "journalism". That would be espionage, and Tucker would (if that's what happened) be in danger of spending the rest of his life in prison.
3. More narcissistic possibility: Tucker made it all up, as Axios claims. In that case, this would mean that he made up a scary story about the Trump Administration to get clicks, cash, and standing as a victim persecuted by the "evil" Donald Trump, "bought-and-paid-for" agent of "the Jooos". And honestly, this morning, I think most of us would lean toward Aisle 3. It's pretty much classic him. But that obscures the magnitude of what happened this weekend. Either Tucker Carlson lied or he didn't. If he didn't, then he was likely aiding and abetting a foreign enemy in time of war, or at least committing the same kind of FARA violation he's accused his enemies of for years. And if he did, then he's just a charlatan. Either way, Tucker Carlson blew a Titanic-sized hole in his own credibility this weekend. It seems to be an unforced error. And that's going to be very hard to overcome outside the realm of his own devotees.Below: It almost seems irrelevant to bring up Taqiyya's past statements, as he his plainly not the same man he once was, due to the demon-scratch that caused him permanent brain damage. But in the past, Taqiyya argued for all sorts of people to face FARA prosecutions.
I used to watch Tucker all the time. Watching him take apart people such as Schiff, Avenatti, and Swalwell was like watching an artist. It was masterful.

Speaking of narcissists, this is the best takedown and picture I've seen from last night's orgy of self-congratulation, aka The Oscars.
This is the autopsy report on Hollywood itself...pathological, terminal, and perfectly representative of the psychic refuse that slithered through its velvet seats.
These are not artists.
They are a collective personality disorder in couture: narcissistic cluster-fucks whose grandiosity is so brittle that they cannot even contain their own waste.
Every empty champagne flute, every discarded gift bag, every sticky condom wrapper of ego left behind screams the same truth...these motherfuckers shit where they eat, then swan off to the afterparty while the invisible brown hands they pretend to champion on stage are left to mop up the evidence of their moral incontinence.

The attack comes after a separate drone strike and fire at Fujairah on Saturday, underlining the vulnerability of the UAE’s only export route that bypasses the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz.
Shipping traffic through one of the world’s most important energy choke points has virtually ground to a halt since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes against Iran on Feb. 28. Iran has retaliated by targeting ships trying to pass through the maritime corridor, with several incidents reported in recent days.
Fujairah sits at the end of the UAE’s Abu Dhabi Crude Oil Pipeline (ADCOP), or the Habshan–Fujairah oil pipeline, which bypasses the Strait of Hormuz.
Spanning around 248 miles from onshore oil facilities at Habshan to Fujairah, the pipeline is estimated to handle 1.5 million barrels per day, with a reported total capacity of close to 1.8 million barrels per day.

Somewhat before my time, but what always struck me about Farah poster is how tame it is. Not even a bikini. Yet it was considered erotic and a bit risque at the time. Some years later, dorm rooms had posters of naked chicks sucking dildos.

Okay, I was conspiracy theorizing last night when I suggested that Carlson may be pulling a snape here, but a funnier possibility occurs to me:
Tucker felt that, regardless of what Trump actually said in their meetings, he had persuaded the President that attacking Iran was a bad idea. And he communicated that, with the end result that their entire leadership was wiped out in an intelligence 'own goal'.

No one would have known if he'd kept his mouth shut.
But then not only revealed that, thought such reveal would cast him as a "good" guy.
Say, remember when CNN admitted they covered up for Saddam for "insider access?"

I circle you back to my theory that Tucker has always been a kook, it was just well contained between the beacons at Fox, so when the opportunity arose to boot him, it was taken. Again, corporations do not exit money makers stage left for failures of low magnitude that would blow over as soon as the next scandal came down the leftist pike. I am guessing he was becoming more and more of a liability - now that he no longer has those gatekeepers, we are seeing it for ourselves. Which is sad, but the truth is probably that the Great Tucker we thought we knew was just an illusion.

What about DOJ/FBI investigation? Usually, when a government agent or lawyer says "No, the X isn't investigating Y," it's carefully worded to exclude whoever is actually investigating.
Do I think anyone is investigating this sad blowhard sack of unrequited goat love? No, I don't. But the statement above does leave open the possibility that some agency other than the CIA is.

That was my amused interpretation when the Tucker-Iran-Contra Scandal popped up.
I thought FBI wasn't tapping Tucker's comms. Instead, Mossad was tapping Iran's; they just happened to catch Tucker as he was sliding into the Ayatollah's DM's.
Maybe, maybe not. But given how he's currently acting, it's less conspiracy and more pattern-matching.
After all, remember that one blogger that made it big with the RaTHer-Gate scandal? Little green... something? Turds? Got a brainworm, soon became one of those nose-ringed, blue-haired Karen harpies.
There was another blogger, Patter-something. Frey. Had an ongoing series about "Deport The Criminals First". But then got another brainworm, was all Anti-Trump, All Anti-Time. And that was during the first administration. Wonder if he's now trying to drive over ICE officers and dropping charges against illegals today, thanks to the TDS.

He's not a bad interviewer, or at least he wasn't. His interview with Jair Bolsonaro on Fox shortly before USAID had Bolsonaro thrown in prison was very good. Haven't really watched him since he left Fox though, so I haven't seen his downward spiral.

In the case of people doing crap for money, fame, and power, grifter is the appropriate term. As they believe in nothing themselves (and Tucker's media career indicates that), they follow the path that gets them that--facts and reality be damned.

A grifter is a con artist.
Tucker Carlson has been running con jobs on his audience since he was a liberal Republican on CNN, then a neocon war cheerleader, then an anti-war Trump populist, then a pro-Iran Jew hater.
He believes nothing, and spent his career running one scam after another. Megyn Kelly is very similar.
They are grifters.

For the last two months I have said Tucker is a turncoat and needs to go away. But to him bad publicity is still publicly. And that is what he wants. For some reason there is money in it for him.

From as long as I can remember Hannity has been consistent in his beliefs.
I think most of us fall along those lines.
When we see something is wrong even though we may have supported them in the past like Owens and Tucker. We aren't afraid to cut ties and call them out.

Despite what anime might indicate, the idea of ninja is to be hidden, not to loudly announce your position like a member of COBRA.
