Wednesday Morning Rant
Hegseth burst into office promising to modernize the armed forces to respond to emerging threats and to refocus their efforts on actual warfighting and preparedness, shifting away from ideological loyalty and cronyism. Much of the woke crap is gone. The double standards in the armed forces for men and women are being rolled back. It's about war, being ready for war, being capable of war. He made a lot of waves in the press last year when he gave his address at Quantico, targeted squarely at senior officers and rank-and-file policy. There was much pearl clutching when he told them that they were expected to be fit, well-groomed and competent and they were expected to focus on the business of war instead of on progressive politics.
He's gotten to work on it, and has had a good year and an especially good month. The biggest press waves came from this year's address at Quantico, mostly because - horror of horrors - he was mean about progressive sacred cows and emphasized that major reduction in force for the top ranks will continue. There was much pearl-clutching because of two particular parts of the speech:No more social engineering, no more weaponized IG policies. The complainers, the ideologues, and the poor performers are no longer in the driver's seat. No more silly PowerPoint trainings or drag queen shows. No more diversity quotas, no more gender pronouns, no more identity months, only the warrior ethos. And I know you feel it because I've been to your units and met with your troops. It has transformed entire formations as it was intended to do. But it's worth saying again, so that the fake news understands it. We are no longer the woke department or the weak department. Simple translation of that, no fatties, no trannies, no beardos, no weirdos, no wimps, no radicals, just warriors, just tough, ready, committed troops. The war department, as you know, is colorblind, gender-neutral, and merit-based.
You see, the number crunchers say we've fired 10% of the generals and admirals across the force, and that number sounds about right. And I know because I directed it that we've also reduced the overall number of general officer slots by an additional 10%. So yes, 20% reduction across the board. Now the media calls that a purge. I call it accountability and long overdue, and frankly, the bare minimum. As usual, what the media levels as an accusation, I wear as an accomplishment. You see, you can't change a culture with the same people who enabled it. Personnel is policy at every single level.The first, whatever. It's good, of course, and it consumed most of the column-inches because he called trannies weird. Between that and the "FORTRESS America" announcement, most of the press only briefly mentioned the crucial part of Hegseth purging the higher office ranks, which is itself a follow-on to the huge reforms he implemented in the same area earlier. A bit before the annual address at Quantico, Hegseth announced a new system for promotions to general or admiral ranks, called the "Joint Warfighter Evaluation." This new scheme will test colonels and captains in war games and simulations to ensure they can effectively manage combat and competently command forces as a condition of promotion. Making general or admiral will no longer be primarily a political game of loyalty and ideological purity, but an exercise in the demonstration of skill and competence. That is a major and important development to help ensure that the next set of flag officers know what they're doing. And that next set is going to be needed and needed soon, as the War Department starts cycling out flag officers installed under the old rules. For 12 of the past 18 years, Obama and Biden headed the most ideologically ruthless administrations in modern history and had plenty of time to install loyalists throughout the government, and the military was no exception. Hegseth said that the press would call his reductions at the flag level a "purge" and I would call it that, too. Unlike the press, however, I am not criticizing it. While trimming out progressive ideologues from the highest ranks is crucial, Hegeth's work to help secure the military's future by making the promotions process less political and more focused on actual combat and military operations is even more important. Yes, it is a very good thing that the "trannies, beardos, weirdos, wimps and radicals" are being removed and that should not be downplayed, but this year's initiatives are about helping to secure that progress. The groundwork Hegseth laid last year was more about the lower ranks. Last year's focus on eliminating double standards based on sex or rank, eliminating time-wasting, soul-crushing and nonsensical woke "training," eliminating ideological or identity-based promotions or carve-outs, etc. all help clean up the pipeline and ensure that the boots on the ground and those NCOs and junior officers who keep the gears turning are competent and ready. This year, he's targeting the higher part of the hierarchy, not just through eliminating personnel but through refilling those positions in a better, more reliable, more competent and less political way. Trump's cabinet has been doing generally good and sometimes exceptional work day in and day out on the important business of winning the present. Of all the secretaries, however, Hegseth may be doing the most to win the future.

Hegseth removed the dispensation for SOCOM/WARCOM kids to have the beards. He also removed the dispensation for unofficial logos/icons.

That was true of the Cold War too between the two adversaries. Soviet Union did most of the shooting via proxies.
A hot civil war resembles the ACW, the Spanish Civil War, the French and Russian Revolutions, or the English Civil War, or the implosion of Yugoslavia. I think the closest resemblance is the Spanish Civil War as it is an urban-rural split with the suburbs being the battle ground.

Do you think most people can even name the last SoS or his accomplishments? You know besides assuring with the illegal aliens invasion and sucking every dick he could at the UN and in NATO?
The entirety of central and South America has changes or is changing for the better. That’s not just Trump. Rubio has ALOT to do with how it was done, and what the future will look like. That’s just for starters. He’s leading on Iran and with the EU.

This.
And the fact the other side hasn't acknowledged it, yet.
And probably won't. Because nobody wants to "be first" on our side to shoot back. And we know whoever "is first" (unlike a first here) will not fair well, as a warning to the rest of us.

Yeah, I bought and read AH's book. Yugoslavia though was more like the American Civil War if the US had split into several different ethnic groups during it. With today's ethnic splits, we may get the more complicated Yugoslavian story if a hot civil war ever happens. US is now far more diverse ethnically and by region that us or Spain were during past Civil Wars. Same goes for comparisons with the English Civil War.

That doesn't sound like a winner.
Nobody is doing real fake videos, if that's a term. Parodies of shitty Democrat politicians presiding over the results of their shitty policies, like Los Angeles, sure.
I think Paxton wins this race. He just needed to assure most Cornyn voters, who only voted Cornyn because "Electable", that he's a serious candidate so electable too.

Yup. I do. I know that I don't hold the same positions today that I did 13 years ago. I've been radicalized by what's happened since then. Hell, I was radicalized watching Trump get shot in the face and seeing the left simultaneously cheer that he was shot and mourn that he survived.
But I also know that many, very well-respected commenters here don't believe he has actually moved on policy because the only billets he's been in since then involve him speaking for Trump, not for himself.
The fear is that should he ever be in a position to speak for himself - say, as President - then his pro-amnesty roots will come out and he'll fuck us.
Posted by: Washington Nearsider: Gotterdammerung at October 07, 2026 11:30 AM (gLYp7)
Yeah, I thought about that. Hegseth wrote a book about what was wrong with the military, and how he'd fix it. That's why Trump picked him.
As was noted above, Bessent has more real world financial experience than just about anyone. He knows how the system works (as does Trump, but I suspect that's why Trump picked him).
My point is that people people are praising Rubio for "his" policies, when in fact they're really just saying he's done a good job running State. That's certainly important, and if he really wants to run for President, that executive experience is necessary, but I really have no idea what his policies are now. That's why I'm STILL one of the people who doesn't trust him after the immigration fiasco.
Posted by: Archimedes at October 07, 2026 11:30 AM (Riz8t)
I don't know how good Paxton is on stage, but Talacreepo is terrible whenever he has to go off script. He gets flustered and starts stammering like a retarded deer in the headlights in the face of even friendly questions at campaign events. He would get chopped up into little pieces on a debate stage.

His work is laudable.
It will be immediately rolled back.
You can't roll back a military purge. The machine will have to be rebuilt, and it will take a long time.
Like it took before - and now the enemy will be stripped of a loyal officer corps at a time when they really need and want one.
These are officers who were supposed to keep us all in line during the coming storm. They're gone.
The rank and file are also being reformed, by nature of the officer purge itself, and the new standards in place.
Hegseth will leave the regime with an unreliable Army. It's a huge blow to them, perhaps an insurmountable one.

Topic: What one question do you want to ask your opponent.
Collins: You served in Augusta for more than 20 years and were President of the Senate. In that time, more than 1/3 of your bills were unanimously voted down in committee. If you can't even get the support of a single Democrat, how are you going to get anything done in a closely divided Senate as its most junior member?
Jackson: uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Trust the steal. But also I think they are being somewhat pragmatic. That is why so many of them are ducking debates. They know that an at all fair moderator will end up with them in a fail-fail state. Either they moderate, and piss off the DSA types who might kill them, or they don't moderate and go full fire breathing commie and piss off everyone else.
I remember one of my government teachers in the before times high school era saying that one of the strengths of our system (and this was echoed by Shelby Foote in the civil war series) is that it forced moderation and compromise in order to appeal to the people. Social media and insularity between groups is forcing that system to break down.

They haven't pulled anything, but they've barely responded to the late stage onslaught of ad dollars Republican groups started throwing at the state a few weeks ago.
Like, Schumer gave Talarico $2 million. That gets you late night ads outside of Dallas at this point in the campaign.
Meanwhile, Thune pledged tens of millions.
There are two contested senate races where Democrats are outspending Republicans (NC and GA) through the end of the campaign, and they're barely outspending Republicans in those states.

Fun fact, Maine's electorate is a large majority of old white people much the same as the rest of New England (median age about 45) . So Collins is a literal representative of voters there. 22 percent of the population there is 65+ in age which means more like about 30-40 percent of the electorate.

Mail in is small in NC.
What's big is early in person voting, which starts a week from tomorrow.
So, it's a sign, but a bigger sign will come starting late next week.

Depends on turnout now. Vote by mail figures do not show a blue wave in Georgia for example and early voting is just starting (in Georgia the early voting is now truncated compared to previous elections so it will not really be a direct 1:1 comparison with past years). NC is a hard state to read and TJM probably knows more about what is going on than I do.
Haven't seen much actual voting stats if any from there and ALL polls now are considered suspect and prediction markets are trash.
We also face the issue of how independents are going to break--most are actually leaners, not true independents and these are the most difficult to reach in polling and also turnout. Doesn't appear that we are getting huge voting numbers that way in the competitive states (ignoring those that primarily vote by mail in the West).

The idea that the state that went Trump+3 was suddenly an easy win for Democrats at the federal, statewide level because Roy Cooper, who left his governorship a couple of years ago in a terrible position because of Helene and his criminal policies, was always ludicrous.
Last time Cooper won statewide election, there were 400,000 more registered Dems than Reps (he won by 250,000 votes). There are now 10,000 more Reps than Dems. And, the propensity to send senators of the "wrong party" by PVI is far less than the propensity for electing senators of the "wrong party" by PVI. Think Hogan in MD or Romney in MA.
He's got name recognition, which is not nothing. But it's far from everything.

Been contacted? GOTV operations will most likely concentrate on those that vote sporadically in midterm or off year elections and the people that is registered but has not voted in recently.
Persuasion is more likely if you are a regular voter.
Ironically, the best result is if you vote in every single election including municipal and school board type elections, primaries, etc. That pretty much marks you as a voter that does not need to be contacted to vote. Aka supervoters. Only about 10 percent or so of voters.

Both parties are awash in cash and spend money in these states every cycle.
It's how politics work, and the "watch where they spend the money" technique is so chock full of false positives (both parties spent a total of $200 million in Texas for the senate race in 2024, and that race didn't end up close at all) that I find it pretty much useless as a barometer.

Smart campaigns merely send such voters fliers, etc. Because they are self activating. Waste of money to contact in most cases unless it is an early voting state and they haven't voted yet. Good campaigns from demographics and other background can pretty much figure out voting patterns of someone like the supervoter.
The indys that are sporadic in voting and move around a lot like yutes will usually be the target for GOTV operations.
So far, in states reporting on vote by mail (vbm), the 18-29 year olds are not voting like in previous elections. In Ohio, apparently down to 2014 levels. That is going to hurt democrats more than gop because young voters skew Dem and if they don't turn out by vbm, they are likely not to early vote nor vote on election day. Dem GOTV structure since 2018 at least has been designed to get them to vote by mail.

Smart. Consider hiring a internet privacy service to remove yourself from databases. Some of them offer free scans to find out what others know about you personally but to have them remove you from the lists, you have to pay. Privacy Bee and Optery do that, mebbe some others.

And, the polls vastly overestimated his support in the primary because polling firms either can't or won't get good samples from rural working class voters.

All of campaign analysis is triangulation of data sources and the rise of candidates that are the political version of The Producers! makes using campaign funding naively as the only market as questionable by itself. The most strategic of campaign funding is Senate and House committees that can now explicitly coordinate with candidates of their party and spend on ads on their behalf. The indy dark money cannot as of yet and is limited to the call Senator so and so and tell them ....... So they run mainly negative ads which depresses turnout, particularly yutes and sporadic voters.
The reason why political science though fared better in recent replicability studies on research while sociology and education studies could not be replicated, is that like economics and price, the basis of much of poli sci research is the vote data point to which everything else is attached.
We know campaign funding spent on ads, gotv, candidate appearances, etc. influences the number of votes for a candidate but it is not a one to one relationship.

Dispersal of places receiving the ballots makes it more difficult to tamper--few GOP ballots to discard in cities, harder to tamper in GOP red areas.
Do what Trump wanted for vbm, special envelopes, tracking end to end, etc. and that makes it very dangerous to tamper, not impossible but a lot more perilous than today. And you may or may not know, USPS actually images the front and back of all mail now (stemming from the anthrax attacks year ago) and has pretty accurate tracking even when the mail is just first class mail.

The Morning Report — 10/ 7 /26
Three years have passed since the Hamas massacre of Oct. 7, 2023 — the wholesale murder, rape and torture of more than 1,200 men, women, children and infants in Israel. Yet as Jews everywhere gather to mourn, what should be a day of quiet reflection and prayer, of defiant cries of “Never again,” is being eclipsed by something dark and obscene. The tragedy of 10/7 has ripped the veil off the antisemitism that has always bubbled below the surface. As the nation of Israel dares to defend itself against an existential threat, the gloves have come off. Jew hatred is now more than a quiet obsession. It is cool. In Hollywood, Jew hate has emerged from the shadows and become a chic and trendy pastime. World-famous antisemites such as Susan Sarandon, Mark Ruffalo and Javier Bardem don keffiyeh in solidarity with bloodthirsty terrorists. Onstage, musicians Macklemore and Zach Bryan rant about fictional Palestinian “genocide” while snubbing their noses at Jewish agony. . . In Gracie Mansion, the mayor of the city second only to Israel in its concentration of Jews, entertains Holocaust deniers and 10/7 sympathizers, ramping up a record wave of anti-Jewish hate crimes. Instead of protecting all the people of this city, Mayor Zohran Mamdani agitates for the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while surrounding himself with like-minded socialist staffers, advisers and adoring acolytes who share Hizzoner’s disdain and contempt for Jews.To every sane person out there, yes the planet has turned upside down but considering we are barely a month past the 25th anniversary of 9/11/01, where perhaps we had imagined or deluded ourselves into believing that the world had righted itself when the rubble was removed and the smoke had cleared, and then the London Underground was bombed followed in short order by the attack in Madrid at the Atocha train station. But of course the Freedom Tower was built, and yet Islam, and its ally of convenience domestic and international socialism continues its bloody rampage across Europe and the world...
The planet has turned upside-down.
The genocide of Nigerian Christians at the hands of Islamic Jihadists continues apace, although you wouldn’t know it from the mainstream media, which is myopically focused on its pet political project, the so-called Palestinian people.The X post... captures the heartbreaking loss of one innocent in particular, a schoolteacher who was a light for his students and community.In the twisted words of Socialist demi-god numero uno Joe Stalin "The death of one is a tragedy, the death of a million is a statistic, and yet we have the death of one by one by one, sometimes one at a time sometimes dozens or even thousands at a time, and yet and yet and yet...
but then again, we have just passed the 84th anniversary of the wholesale slaughter at the Babi Yar ravine.
As Holocaust memorial institutions gathered on Monday to mark the 84th anniversary of the Babyn Yar massacre, in which Nazis and their collaborators murdered more than 33,000 Jews in a two-day rampage, the names of more than 1,000 previously unidentified victims were read for the first time thanks to new archival documentation.And while we're speaking of 9/11 and the near insanity of the FlyDubai attempted hijacking and Islamikaze attack on Israel last week, we have this continuing insanity to contend with! Ho-Lee-FOOK are you kidding me?!
United Airlines has removed from service a pilot who called Hamas terrorists behind the October 7 massacre “brave,” pending a review, The Daily Wire can first report. Capt. Ibrahim R. Mossallam was first suspended with pay in November 2023, but Israel’s Channel 14 reported on Monday that United quietly allowed him to return to the cockpit just six months later. United told The Daily Wire on Tuesday that it has pulled the pilot from the skies “We have withheld this pilot from service pending an ongoing review,” an airline spokesman said.The airline did not confirm whether Mossallam had resumed flying after it began investigating in late 2023.Switching gears completely, this is something that I'd usually ignore but because my dear sweet wife and sister-in-law were yammering on about it endlessly yesterday evening, I just "can't get it out of my head," with all due deference and apologies to E.L.O...
California Democrats just hit a damning new low, bewailing how President Donald Trump supposedly invited Iran to nuke Los Angeles and San Diego. As LA Mayor Karen Bass and others chimed in, Gov. Gavin Newsom posted: “The President is advocating for an attack on 10+ million U.S. residents in two of America’s largest cities.” He added: “This is not normal. None of this is” — when in fact it’s an all too normal case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. From Dems’ accounts, you’d guess Trump had at least made some tasteless joke; after all, he did just give out a GOP senator’s personal cell number just because the guy won’t agree to end Daylight Savings Time. But no; it’s a straight-up smear. Here’s what Trump said at Monday night’s Nebraska rally: “You want to see a tremendous victory [in Iran], because it verifies all the things we did. And again, remember, with the word, [the gas price rise] is just artificial, it’s a little bit high. “It’s a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe. They can take out a city. Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. That’s — this is a very small price to pay, and it’s gonna be over with very soon.” Sloppy, sure; Trump was riffing on the stump. But no way was he inviting Iran to attack those cities, nor even joking about it. He was arguing that the temporary spike in gas prices is a very small price to pay, compared to the terrible cost of Iran going nuclear and destroying an American city.No, it wasn't sloppy at all. Anyone with more than Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants' two barely firing synapses, if that many, not only knows what the President said and in what context but understands that an Iranian nuclear warhead is an existential threat that must be neutralized. In no way did he cheer on or call for Iran to nuke San Diego or LA, though given who and what is running California and far too many other places in America and what they have planned for the rest of the nation should they gain control of the Federal government, and if they have their way never relinquish that control, the jokers twisting President Trump's words actually make the case. And now let the trolls accuse me of calling for Iran to nuke America! Meh, why am I getting so exercised. It's puerile, infantile, amateurish and typical of the Trump-deranged Left, and yet too many seemingly intelligent people swallow this crap whole without even a mildly critical second thought. Oh well, it is what it is. So Basta cosi and God bless the memory of all those slaughtered by Islam and protect us from their evil and that of their allies of convenience on the Left who seek our destruction so they can serve Satan by destroying and enslaving us. On these and all the other cheery news of the day, I nevertheless bid you all to have a good day.

Apparently the DoW felt the Iranians had a plan in place to use drones, smuggled into the UK to hit the USAF aircraft (B-1's and other) based at RAF Fairford. Those bombers fueled up and left before their tanker support was airborne.
Those aircraft won't be returning to the UK anytime soon.
England, what's left of it, isn't trustworthy enough for the USAF to base aircraft there anymore.

Why do black mothers sacrifice their sons and daughters to the hood?
Why do white voters vote in mass for Mamdani, Johnson, Bass, et al?
Why is every major city in the US a complete failure in crime, education, and business?
Many black and white people think that only a black mayor, or chief of police, or school superintendent can "HELP" black people and communities.
It is an US vs. THEM socialist mentality that is baked into almost every decision at the city and county and school district.

Calmly, quietly, she understood; these were the last minutes of her life.
She asked her parents to call Tomer, her twin brother, and Maya, her little sister, and said:
“I’m going to die. I just want you to listen to me.
I love you, Yariv. You’re the best father I could have asked for.
Mom, stop screaming. Just listen to me. You are the best mother we could have ever had. Don’t forget to be a good mother to Tomer and Maya after I die.
Tomer, how lucky we were to live this life together. I love you.
My Maya, never forget—you are the treasure of my life.”

Erdogan is always a problem. But the base at Incirklik allows the US to maintain close surveillance over a large portion of Russia’s southern border, as well as Syria, Iraq, and northern Iran. Incirclik is arguably the single most strategically important NATO affiliated base which the US has, with the possible exception of Keflavik.
In case anyone wonders why we keep it, and why we work to maintain good relations with Erdogan.

They've inadvertantly done this in Chicago.
They HAD ShotSpotter technology, which would triangulate the location of gunfire. Then they could roll police and an ambulance even if nobody called it in. Lives were saved.
But it was always happening in black neighborhoods, so Mayor Johnson (D) cancelled ShotSpotter. Racist, you see. Now it can be a solid half hour until the ambulance comes to collect your body.

Two years of watching Hakeem Jefferies rant and rave and hurl shit at the wall, loudly, and in front of every camera he can find.
Two years of watching the entirety of the left BEG for more secret police, retribution, and punishment for anyone not thinking just like them.
And then Vance/Rubio v. Harris/Crockett in 2028.

1) She banged them all under the assumption that she'd become a valued member of the community.
2) She not only didn't become a valued member of the community, she was. actively disinvited from future parties.
3) She provided the pro quo, then they didn't provide the quid. Therefore, she was raped. Same thing as eating at an IHOP, then ducking out the side door without paying the bill. -

If there is video of her fully passed out and someone having sex with her, that will be the criminal charge, with anyone egging the guy on also prosecuted as an accessory. B/c while you can consent while conscious, you cannot continue to consent unconscious.
I have no idea what's on any videos or what any admittances of the gentlement are (she wouldn't know, b/c she would be unconscious). But it's not impossible b/c there are reports everyone was passing out. So, that is the sole place I could see the gentlemen facing charges - if someone admitted to that, or someone videoed or witnessed that.

When I was working for USA Broadcasting, our studio facilities were located in what was the Wiss office building, next door to the old factory. Part of the factory was turned into a church when Wiss sold the building. The entire block was demolished about 10 years ago and a PSE&G switching station now occupies the site. We were on the corner of Central and West Market St.

Leftie, seeing a YouGov poll claiming Talarico leads Hispanics like 65-35.
"By marrying a guy with an Italian last name, Talarico's mom may have saved the republic."
1) yeah, that number is way low if he's really leading by 6; he needs well over 70%.
2) it's clear you don't know any Hispanics or you'd know that not one of them would think Talarico is a Hispanic name.

IIRC, the main instigator is a foreign student from Dubai who has now gone home (fled the country).
What's interesting is that Cornell has hired Sally Yates, formerly of DoJ and a key part of the Russia collusion op. She a bigtime DC Democrat lawfare insider, which would seem to indicate the Cornell "gang rape" story is a key political operation.

That's where I worked! After Wometco shut down, we began carrying the Home Shopping Club in 1987 on channel 68. That lasted until 2001 when the entire network was purchased by Univision. We shut the Newark facility down and consolidated al operations with WXTX-41 in Teaneck. Our transmitters were on the same floor at Empire, so the logistics made sense. The call letters of 68 are now WFUV. I retired from WXTV engineering late 2019. I still miss the old 68 building and Floyd. Sadly, both now are gone.

Because in their eyes, they aren't.
Republicans don't go to, nor have they graduated from Cornell. Their donor base, therefore, is (functionally) entirely leftist.
Cornell WANTS this because it pleases their donor base who will continue to pour money into the university to 'fight the patriarchy.'

Democrats have completely abandoned women to the tranny and islamic menaces. And to toxic masculinity in general which now Democrats suddenly think is cool.
So now they just treat them like they treat blacks. Bring up some big case filled with lies like this every few years, make it huge, and suddenly they're on women's side again, because who else will be.
This is one of the ways they keep their constituent groups on the plantation. Wild when you see it.

This is a very good question. I think the administration lacks the ability to see right from wrong, or at least to call evil by it's name, and regard every issue as a PR problem. Kicking students out for behavior, as opposed to poor academic performance (for which you used to easily get booted), is not going to happen. Every mental illness is indulged.

Non whites do vote as a bloc for their own. Every single group does this. Black, Hispanic, Jewish, Asian, muzzie, you name it. They vote for their own who then gives them shit they want, including even more immigration of their own. Which increases their power to vote in more of their own. It’s a nice circle.
Whites are the only people who don’t do that. So who’s really retarded?

No, JJ, is WAS sloppy; a poor segue from Kamala and the election. Here's from just before the "tremendous victory" part of the speech:
...Did you hear her the other day, Kamala? She said, "We have to make the election too big to rig." Oh, no. She stole my line. She got killed even by the Democrats on that one. Make it too, can you imagine Kamala? She's about two years late. She said, "We have to --" Did you hear that? She said, "We have to make the election too big to rig." I said, "I can't believe she --" She stole my line.She stole a lot of things that didn't work out too well. But I want, I wanna see, I wanna see a tremendous victory. You wanna see a tremendous victory, because it verifies all the things we did. And again, remember, with the word, it's just artificial, it's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe...

Most people don't really know if they pass out for a time when they are drunk or high enough...nor do they remember everything...so it's video and other witness testimony that would matter...
It's good to ensure that didn't happen b/c society does not want barely drunk men taking advantage of women on the verge of passing out at bars or parties...even if the women themselves are the reason for their intoxication...

There is a taxpayer funded charter school for Muslims in Columbus, Ohio. On camera they are teaching students that non-Muslims go to hell and their purpose is to spread Islam in America
You’re not going to believe this, taxpayers are paying $10,435,836 PER YEAR for this school to operate
The school is called Focus Learning Academy of Northern Columbus in Columbus, it’s a public K–8 charter
Funding reported from the school’s Ohio Auditor of State report:
- Total revenue: $9,972,915
- State foundation basic aid: $7,654,007
- Federal and state grants: $2,268,249
- Other operating revenue: about $50,659
- Total expenses: $10,435,836
That is roughly $16,000 per student
Get this, The academic page lists full-time Arabic language instruction for grades K–8
An estimated 98% of the students are Muslims. The students are described as ‘overwhelmingly Somali’
WE ARE PAYING FOR THIS

Bottom line unfortunately is R's do not want it that bad. I know that won't make you feel better as such but think about it - if they don't want it that bad, why are you breaking your heart over it? It's a big club and we ain't the hell in it.

She also, despite her lawsuit saying that she wanted to leave but was trapped by all these hulking men (if you've seen a photo of her you'll understand why that's a laugh) and her phone was across the room was able to respond to a text from her roommate within a few seconds.
She continued to text the guy for a couple weeks afterwards, stating that everything was consensual, and she'd like to get together again - although preferably with only him - right up until she was told that she could not attend their Halloween party. One week later she went to the police and made her rape accusation.

So Oct 7 didn't target Israeli military, government or police and wasn't allowed in any way by "the rules of war". But that's ok. The Palis are "oppressed" even though they were under their own government at the time.
But any response by Israel that might resolve the issue is bad and evil. The left argues Israel had some nominal right to respond but only if no civilians were harmed in any way and you can't respond to acts of war with...war. And the left will say things like, "Well right after Oct 7 Israel had the world's sympathy but they through it away with their actions"

>>I lean towards "shouldn't have f*cked it up in the first place."
The idea a bunch of nurses couldn't find a vein in someone who is strapped down to a gurney is implausible.
That fact that she's conscious and speaking means very little if any of the drugs were administered.
I'm with others that this was intentionally botched by the sister-hood of traveling pants.

If she was severely dehydrated, veins collapse easily. If the veins are already small, it makes things harder. When I was in the hospital (granted they weren't trying to kill me...maybe), they had a hell of a time with my veins, eventually poking the back of my hands...I would, after a day or two, have infiltration of the IV and they would have to look for another vein. If it was unpleasant for them, it was more-so for me.
That being said, given she was going to die, they could've gone big and gone for a vein in her neck.

God bless the memory of all those slaughtered by Islam. 🙏 Grant protection from such evil & destruction as they serve Satan.
From above, "...but then again, we have just passed the 84th anniversary of the wholesale slaughter at the Babi Yar ravine."
Reportedly, roughly 300 local Ukrainian auxiliary policemen in Kyiv assisted the Germans by rounding up victims of the two-day slaughter, guarding the perimeter, and helping manage the logistics of the September 1941 massacre.
Further, Stepan Bandera and his OUN-B originally collaborated with Nazi Germany ahead of the 1941 invasion of the Soviet Union. Reportedly, Bandera believed that aligning with Adolf Hitler was a transactional strategy to secure an independent, nationalist Ukrainian state.
Although Bandera was locked away in a German concentration camp during the height of the war for proclaiming restoration of Ukrainian statehood in Lviv, his followers in the OUN-B and its military wing—the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA)—participated in mass killings of Jewish civilians and the ethnic cleansing of Poles in Volhynia. (March 1943 to early 1945, with massacres peaking in July and August 1943.)

Costs are never dropping until some kind of collapse happens. The media company's, cable-satellite-streaming-whatever, are not lowering there costs. Mainly because networks, especially sports networks, won't. NFL is driving it mostly, but they will increase the costs to show games until the ratings start dropping. It's happening in college football. Not quickly, but it's slowly happening. The cost of games are too high and that gets passed to the consumer.

I dreamed I was getting ready to retire from a job at my old employer, in part because there were rats in the building. I mean they were bold, running out of cracks in the walls and chirping at people. None of that was true in any of their buildings where I worked in my waking life. In my dream this building looked more like my high school.
Though we did have fleas a couple of times. And one of my coworkers used to hear claws scratching as something ran above the suspended ceiling in her office. . . .

The FCC has been allowing TV station consolidation for years. Two local stations here just merged their news and weather broadcast crews and their over the air college football sports broadcasts are in Spanish. I'm thinking they are seeing a decline in revenue and lack of viewership.

I don't know the background on this, at all, but it seems affected to describe a 2-1 vote as being along party lines. If a vote were, say, 112-47 along the party lines of two parties, ok, that would be worth remarking on the party-line-ness of it. It's gonna get just, like, tedious to categorize the votes of 3 persons, again and again, as along party lines or not.

I'm curious. College ball has always kind of been a feeder league for the NFL (i mean, at least until you go back to when they played the game in black and white).
If people are caring less about the NFL lately because they've been shredding their brand for years, it stands to reason they'd care less about college ball, too. I'm sure that's not all of it, but it's part of it.

My hunch is that the AI bubble will slowly deflate, rather than pop, and all the data centers built in this craze will remain but change purpose.
AI will settle in as a useful and ubiquitous tool but not the World Of Tomorrow nonsensical fad it is now, and it will still need data factories to back it up.
Non-AI distributed compute tasks will also continue to grow and embed themselves further into the fabric of our economy, and probably at some point at a faster pace than AI. People want their "free" email, "free" photo storage, etc etc. Same as before, but more and more people will expect more and more storage and processing.
Like any other software bloat, it's a gas filling its container. The more containers we build, the more stuff we'll come up with to put in to it, and it will expand to fill it accordingly.

Speaking of John Cleese, I wonder how he would have handled, in Monty Python style, the tempest in a teacup that British plastic manufacturer Park's found itself in when it released in 1965 a series of model kits titled: Born Losers.
I, myself, obtained and assembled their Napoleon model. Don't ask me why. I was turned up to 11 at the time.

As a manufactured body, a homunculus does not have a normal human lifespan. On the one hand, they may be ageless; but on the other, they may suddenly start to decay or even dissolve. If a rejuvenation ritual is not possible, his creator might just have to make a new one to take his place, so it will be interesting to see if he suddenly parts his hair on the opposite side or something.

“Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

I LOVED the babies greeting their Dada's! I love babies and always have.
We are 10min from our gorgeous grands and they've known us/spent time with us since birth. This is their second home.
When our 1yr old hears/sees us she crawls as fast as she can to me, like a puppy, for months. I'm sure my smile matches hers. Can walk a few steps but crawls faster.
I noticed with all 3 of them when we arrive at their house, and they can hear but not see us as babies in high chairs, they cry til we assure them we know they are there and hello. How could we forget them?
I didn't realize until they were born that there is no level or degree of difference in the love we have for them and our sons. They are simply ours as well. Certainly pieces of my heart running around with them.
Thanks again for the music and videos.
Have a great night!

Hurricane Isaias COULD impact games on Saturday, most notably Georgia at Alabama. Timing is everything. Does rain clear out by gametime or is it a true hurricane game? Both options are on the table. This system is moving quickly north on Saturday so the heavy rain/gusty winds only lasts for...

Since it is seemingly the Democrats' wish that ICE never actually make any arrests, they should totally support making g the agents uselessly waste their time monitoring polling places rather than going out to where their quarry actually gather.

Only some are this blessed, nurse.
We are incredibly lucky to live in the foothills...1mi from a rocky mountain range. Heaven. Thankful every morning for us ending up where we started 50yrs ago this month when we met.
We lived 1/4mi from the Atlantic and 1/4mi from the Intercoastal Waterway in FL for 20 years in a house we built and raised teens. Loved that, too. I miss the pool, not hurricanes, humidiy, snakes, gators or bugs. It was grand and our boys grew up from infancy on the beach.
Growing up we had 100 acres of forest from my bedroom window.
College years not so blessed with apts, but, man, did I have fun! Impoverished and still having fun. Seeing one roommate next week for lunch! Life is very good.
Happy Birthday again. Looks like Doof celebrated!

I had my debate with the far-left incumbent earlier tonight. I thought I did horribly, but I'm my own worst critic. The reviews I received from folks in the audience was completely different.
Weston CT is affluent, and very liberal, but I made my main argument more about shifting the tax burden from the town to the state, and it went over very well with that crowd. Turns out the state gets away with saying they don't raise State taxes by pushing their unfunded mandates onto our property taxes instead. Been going on for years, but our current Rep just makes excuses for it. Not as popular as she thinks it is.
Still an uphill slog, but a sprint to Election Day. We may have a shot after all. People are saying that she should never have agreed to a debate. We'll see.

Note how overexposed that latter actually is. He had to do that to get Jupiter's moons in there. And that makes them look bigger. The points of light that are the moons are basically glare washing into the neighboring pixels.
There's a whole world of optics of telescopes and camera sensors and all that complexity in this stuff.

My asshole mailman shoved a carburetor for a harley into the mailbox, which is across the street and down a little with my neighbor's box, instead of just putting it on the porch. It said it was delivered. I'm thinking great, because one time the asshole laid the package at the base of the mailbox in the dirt where anybody could have just snatched it. I run out to the mailbox, which is 200 feet from my door, and I don't see it on the ground. Well, it was in the mailbox, and he crushed the box it was delivered in so he could press fit the whole thing into the mailbox. One time he must have left the door of the mailbox open and probably caught it with his geek jeep when he drove away, because it was torn off and laying in the dirt. When I first moved there I asked him one time why all the mailboxes are across the street. He says "so they don't have to drive up and down the street." You know what he does when he gets to my house, the last house on his route? He does a K turn in my neighbor's driveway across the street and then heads back down the street from where he came. They blow too much to suk

Water on the Pacific beaches of the US west coast is cold. The Japanese Current is clockwise, bringing warm water up.from the tropics past Japan, keeping their islands warmer than they would otherwise be, then circling through the Arctic, bring cold water down along WA, OR, and CA. Even as far south as Long Beach, the water is cooler than you would expect. The only beaches I ever felt had comfortable water were south of Pendleton.

Space is easy. Your vessel only has to deal with a pressure differential of 1 ATM.
Every 33 feet you dive into the ocean, you need to deal with another 1 ATM of pressure.

AOC paid pro-Palestinian activist who fundraised for camps with terrorism ties while wearing periwinkle Remain Sinwar camisole and FreeGaza hotpants -- because they didn't fit Boebert.
According to her FEC disclosures, she gave $375 to Naurin Islam, the deputy director of Sapna NYC, in early June.
Islam had previously engaged in online pro-Palestinian activism and fundraising efforts directed toward refugee camps, and that these specific camps or regions have been viewed by Israeli or security authorities as having militant or Hamas strongholds.
Confront AOC on this on 0ct7/Rocktoverfest and watch her want-to-but-fail to transform into She-hulk with quivering rage; not even Psycho/Gavin want's to be seen with this chick any more, while the rhythemless Rama Suicide Squad can't take their eyes off of her.

Not only was she *vile* and immoral, she's just *clueless* about so many things as well. The thing about her "damn emails" was not only recklessly illegal and worth 20+ years in a Federal prison...it was a *stupid* move on her part because it opened her (what she viewed, incorrectly, as) "private world" to any third-rate hack with computer skills.

Penguins often use this technique. In some cases they can put on a very good show and infiltrate award ceremonies and other such black tie events, but the mephitic miasma surrounding the uninvited guests soon reveals their presence, and results in their subsequent ejection from the gathering before they can do too much damage to the punch.

Not sure what that was. A meteor will have a smoke trail and, yes, be faster than that. A flare won't make that big of a wave (too light by the time it returns to the surface). That looked more like a Roman Candle type firework that was shot off and ignited upon return.

Of course no one *actually* wants to see an American city nuked, you useless dildos. We're laughing at the idea because those cities fucking suck and are full of dickheads like you, making life worse for everyone on Earth every single day.
But you assgoblins can't even fathom the concept of that kind of hyperbolic bitching, which means all the horrid rotten shit you *do* say every day all day is you truly and honestly wishing death and violence upon your imagined Enemies. Because you're a bunch of sick broken useless fucks.
We jeer at the idea of a city being nuked.
You cheer at the reality of a husband and father getting murdered in broad daylight. At women getting raped and abducted, babies being broken and murdered, for the crime of going to a music festival while being Of Tribe. At men getting railroaded for crimes they didn't commit because Vulva. At women going free after brutally murdering their own children because A Guy You Don't Like Is President For A Bit.
I have no time for these monsters.

This got me in their definition of Islamophobia:
"Making false, dehumanizing, demonizing, or stereotypical allegations about Muslims as a
group, including portraying Muslims as inherently violent, extremist, disloyal,
uncivilized, or incompatible with democratic society...Promoting conspiracy theories alleging that Muslims seek to undermine democratic
institutions, secretly control government, or impose religious rule."
BUT, ISLAM IS INCOMPATIBLE with democracy, and you can't say the muzzie terrorists that have attacked us over, and over, and over again aren't violent...and Sharia courts? WTF is that for if not to impose religious rule?

Last time I was in Egypt I stayed in a really nice hotel in Heliopolis. Just a few blocks from the presidential palace so pretty nice neighborhood.
I got there in the middle of the afternoon so I thought I would take a walk and see the area. As I was leaving the hotel grounds an armed guard asked me where I was going. I told him I was just going to walk around the neighborhood. He told me that was a very bad idea.
He told me "the beards" hated average Egyptians like him. If they saw white bread me they would kill me. He was not joking. I stayed on the hotel grounds.

You wanna see a tremendous victory, because it verifies all the things we did. And again, remember, with the word, it's just artificial, it's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe. They can take out a city. Let them take, let it, let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. That's, this is a very small price to pay, and it's gonna be over very soon. It's essentially almost over with. And they might keep going a little long, you know?

It's clearly mocking the idea. "Oh, sure, let them take out these major cities, so long as your precious fucking gas is fifty cents a gallon cheaper"
The price of gas is a tiny price to pay in exchange for putting the screws to one of the most volatile aggressor nations out there so that they DON'T have the ability to take out a city, so quit your damn bitching. You idiots had no problem with these prices with zero strategic benefit in exchange just because Spongebrain Shitpants couldn't find the rudder with both hands and a map, so maybe shut the fuck up about it now.

During Gulf War 1, I was returning to my post in Greece from a gulf country, and got diverted to Cairo. They were not expecting a diplomat, and apparently had a panic attack. They assigned me an armed guard who followed me everywhere, including the bathroom. I did not care for that, but since it was an automatic he was carrying, and I didn't know how trigger happy he was, I didn't make a fuss. They put me on the next plane to Greece, which was an east african carrier complete with goats, chickens and open bunsen burners. I haven't much cared for flying since then.

Anyone who watches the video knows Trump was being sarcastic as he always does at his rallies. It's worked pretty damn well for him this far, he won the presidency 2, ok 3 times, while having the entire media against him and taking a bullet to the head.
He didn't say anything wrong. He was simply pointing out that people who have been saying he shouldn't have taken down the terrorists running Iran who have been threatening to take down The Great Satan for years were wrong because the mullahs meant what they said and that's why taking them down was necessary.

It's a good move, but I worry that it's too little, too late. There are already 1.6 million muslims in Italy now. That's a lot for a small country. And it won't be easy getting them to leave, or even assimilate.

Man Sexually Assaults Women in a Planet Fitness Bathroom Even Though I Was Assured This Never Happens
What they really mean is what some of them admit about little girls being forced to look at adult male perverts' dicks in changing rooms: Little girls will just have to get over their discomfort at viewing a penis.
And as far as women being brutalized or raped by men in women's bathrooms: You're just gonna have to suck it up, Karen.He does not "appear trans," and by "appear trans," of course I mean "looking obviously like a man attempting a grim parody of womanhood." He just seems like the typical street hood rapist. But of course, "trans" people aren't required to do anything to prove their Special Privileged Status, so maybe he is "trans," as he defines it. At any rate, he had every right to be in those bathrooms, decided Planet Fitness.
A man was arrested Thursday morning after police in Cambridge, Massachusetts, said he went into the women's locker room at a Planet Fitness in Porter Square and sexually assaulted people inside. Police responded to an emergency call at the Massachusetts Avenue gym, just after 9 a.m. Thursday. According to Cambridge police, the suspect, later identified as Laquan Holland, was arrested at the scene. One victim was taken to a hospital for evaluation.
Oh, you cancel rapist's memberships after attempted rapes? Awesome. That fixes everything, Planet Fitness. And of course we know that "trans women" never attack and kill actual women. Except for all the times they do.
The incident left frequent gym-goers shaken. "I've always felt safe. Now that I've heard that this had happened, I'll definitely have to look behind my back," said Dr. Yena Do, who works out frequently at the gym. "Which is not a great feeling. I'm going there to work out, undressing out of my scrubs and get into my workout clothes. I'm definitely going to think about that." The Planet Fitness is located on the bottom floor of Lesley University's University Hall, a multi-use building that includes several private businesses accessible by the public. Lesley University student Sophia Holloway said everyone should be able to feel safe in all public spaces. "It's horrible. I feel like it's a big tragedy. Everyone should be able to feel safe and secure wherever they are. Women out here face such hardships, and I think that the world needs to know that it's not OK," Holloway said. ... Planet Fitness said the franchise group canceled Holland's membership following the incident.
A troubled one-time Marine recruit who was transitioning to live as a trans woman has admitted to stabbing a hiker to death -- having told cops she was "what I would want to look like." Zion Teasley, 25, pleaded guilty to murdering beauty technician Lauren Heike, 29, in a deal that took the death penalty off the table.Of course. The woke left won't allow women to be executed, so of course they won't allow "trans women" to be executed, either. Trans women are women, bigots. <
The felon, who had left the Marines just months after going through bootcamp, will instead spend the rest of his life in prison for killing the hiker, who was found dead by neighbors at the foot of a barbed wire fence with 15 stab wounds off a Phoenix trail in 2023. Before the murder, Teasley wrote in his diary that he was "battling with my gender identity and sexuality," which he believed was conflicting with his Christian faith, according to a 400-page police report on the killing obtained by ABC 15 last year. "I want to live a life of serving god, but how can I with these and other sins in the way," wrote the killer, whose attorney called "she" in court. "[I know] I am forgiven for my sins, but it's still a lot of pressure and it's hard to maintain a good Christian mindset 24/7." He said he was depressed by seeing "beautiful" women because he was stuck being "a man."Let's keep encouraging and amplifying the delusions of the mentally ill and keep telling them that they can be Real Women, accepted as such and courted by heterosexual men, if they just remain militant enough about their "rights" and go through enough expensive, body-destroying, sanity-shredding surgeries.

Son and wife (I guess this is why) must not want to be "helicopter" parents. Let the 5yr and 8yr old go to restrooms alone in restaurants (in sight of us). And at our huge church...where I'm going to start needing to use the lady's room with her because I am that stubborn.
I have no control and nor will I tell them how to raise their kids. I must have hovered vs being full on helicopter mother til junior high. Too bad.

The Cornell story says that women should never have fear of men, and should not have to think twice before putting themselves in compromising position. IE, men are always a threat and that needs to change. Women have no agency, donctcha know.
And these stories say that women should accept compromising and threatening situations for some reason. Because men are never a threat if they are "gender confused" and women now have all the agency but are forbidden from exercising it.

And has taken the very idea of Divine Retribution for sinning, right out of the cultural mindset.
Used to be there were two avenues for Justice... The Law... and God... in the Old Testament Divine Retribution, even when you really did not do anything wrong, was a real concept.
This person probably believes that even though they deny the very sex God gave them, AND murdered someone... that they will somehow get a pass into Heaven.

Unless the assaulting was just grabbing a couple of boobs and moving on. That is very upsetting as a victim, he deserves criminal record and all that; and it underscores why idiot corporations should allow men to enter women's locker rooms or bathrooms if they "identify as trans".

My current mental model has Islam and Cultural Marxism as different scam-patter 'skins' over similar 'skeletons' of systems of control, so the Apex Grifters will have no issue with just exchanging one skin for another. The question is which direction, and the answer is toward Islam.
They're both nihilistic, but Cultural Marxism is the weaker type. The Frankfurt School created Critical Theory to turn academics' brains to mush, but the epistemic nihilism lends itself to diffidence. The ontological nihilism of Inshallah -- less like "God willing and the Creek don't rise," and more like Exhaustive Determinism -- takes away their agency, but not their certainty. The victor of the two skins is practically predestined.

Everything about it is nothing more than using religion and promise of salvation as a form of control to create revenue to the masters and slave laborers, whose main labor is that of conquest.

Quick Hits
Trump: The riots in France aren't about school "resources." It's about an invasion by a hostile force under the cover of "seeking asylum."
"What's happening in France is nothing less than out of control mass migration. This isn't about schools, this is about Islam wanting to take over a once great Country!" he posted on Truth Social.Speaking of an invasion by implacably-hostile foreign actors, Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed.
Video below the fold.
Abdul El-Sayed, the Democrat nominee for U.S. Senate in Michigan, drew skepticism from voters in his own party during a pair of MS NOW focus groups this week. It marks a glaring warning sign for the far-left candidate who polls indicate has allegedly been running neck-and-neck with his Republican opponent, Mike Rogers. In one session, black voters said he was taking their support for granted. A woman in that group said she planned to mark uncommitted rather than vote for him. "I think he's taking advantage [of] we as Black people are Democratic, and he thinks we gonna vote for him anyway," one woman explained. "And I'm like, 'No sir, I'm gonna put uncommitted down on that little circle and move on.' If you're going to Congress to represent me, I need you to talk about what's going on in this community." Another participant said El-Sayed had "missed opportunities" to explain himself to black voters. A separate group of committed Michigan Democrats focused on his comments about Israel. They said they wanted a clear statement that he supports Israel and the Jewish people, and questioned whether they would even believe it if he offered one now. MS NOW contributor Elise Jordan prefaced the conversation by pointing out, "You're committed Democrats. All of you. You want to vote for the Democratic candidate. But you just can't."
And speaking more of implacably hostile foreign invaders: Mamdani's "wife" spent the weekend at an Islamic "wellness retreat" run by terrorist supporters.
Eat, pray, bomb. New York City's first lady is currently wrapping up a week as an "artist-in-residence" at a luxury Islamic wellness retreat that has called for the destruction of Israel and openly celebrated Palestinian terrorism, the Washington Free Beacon can reveal. While Rama Duwaji went from the river to the spa, her husband rolled out his own "strategy to combat antisemitism"--a move widely panned by Jewish New Yorkers.France finally starts to begin to get slightly serious about deporting foreign Islamist terrorists.
(@placethedot/Instagram) Duwaji's attendance at the spiritual wellness gathering in Porto, Portugal was previously reported by the New York Post, but the extremism of the group had not been previously known. The retreat, known as the Women Sanctuary, is currently in its second session of the month at an 18th-century Portuguese castle that's now a high-end hotel and event space. The listed price for five nights in a private, single room at the Women's Sanctuary is $5,216.

The French Interior Ministry has vastly expanded the use of decrees stripping citizenship from convicted Islamist terrorists, with over five times the number of orders reportedly being logged over the past three years than the 30 years before. According to figures obtained by French paper of record Le Figaro, over 70 decrees revoking citizenship from convicted terrorists have been issued by the Ministry of Interior, and around 100 have been handed down since 2015. This compares with just 13 during the entire period between 1979 and 2015. The paper reported that 15 have been issued so far this year, while 19 were issued in 2025, 37 in 2024, and 12 in 2023. A senior official at the Hotel de Beauvau told the paper that there are "several hundred" more cases that are set to be dealt with over the next five years as convicted terrorists are released from prison. The Interior Ministry source said that around 45 per cent of those stripped of their citizenship have been French-Moroccan dual nationals, followed by French-Algerians, French-Tunisians, and French-Turks, all of whom represent around 10 per cent of cases.So I guess that previously they deemed these Aspiring Doctors and Engineers valuable members of the state. Trash nation of communist pedophiles Canada falls far behind the US in living standards as it rushes to join the Third World proper.
Obviously, Canada's relationship with the United States has deteriorated substantially since President Trump launched his tariff war and created real economic pain for Canadians. But our new study reveals more bad news, as Canada's economy has fallen further behind the U.S. during the first quarter of the 21st century (long before Trump's tariffs). In fact, across every measure -- including incomes, investment, employment, etc. -- the U.S. clearly outperformed Canada. But perhaps the most eye-opening statistic is the growing gap in living standards. In 1999, Canada's GDP per-person (an indicator of living standards) was $48,076 (all figures are inflation-adjusted in Canadian dollars) compared to $58,842 in the U.S. -- meaning by this measure, living standards in the U.S. were $10,766 higher than in Canada. And the economic fortunes of the two neighbours have since further diverged, considerably. From 1999 to 2024, per-person GDP in Canada grew by 23.8 per cent to $59,529 compared to a 41.5 per cent increase (to $83,286) in the U.S. Put differently, living standards in the U.S. grew 1.7 times faster than in Canada. And the gap in living standards (again, as measured by per-person GDP) has more than doubled -- from $10,766 to $23,757 over the 25-year period. Canadian incomes are also falling behind. From 2010 (the earliest year of comparable data) to 2024, the median employment income (median means half of workers earn more, half earn less) in Canada increased by 14.7 per cent, from $32,580 to $37,361, compared to 18.9 per cent in the U.S., from $38,706 to $46,024. Put differently, in 2024 the typical Canadian worker earned $8,633 less than the typical American worker.
DOJ brings a complaint against Minnesota lawless judges leaking to the NYT about how much they hate border enforcement.
Trump will apply stricter standards to applicants for SNAP benefits, while boosting the benefits for those who actually are eligible and aren't just foreign scammers. In other words, it's another Fascist Holocaust from DRUMPF!!!
The Department of Justice filed a judicial misconduct complaint on Wednesday against several Minnesota-based federal judges for "pander[ing]" to legacy media about ICE operations in the state. "Seven federal judges in the District of Minnesota talked to the New York Times about cases, some of which are on-going, in a manner that the Department of Justice views as a clear violation of their ethical duties," Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement. "Their conduct has undermined public confidence in an impartial judiciary in Minnesota." The complaint addressed to 8th Circuit Court of Appeals Chief Judge Steven Colloton takes to task a Sept. 17 Times article, in which Senior District Judge Patrick Schiltz and his colleagues bashed the Trump administration's handling of cases involving its January 2026 deportation operations in the North Star State. The Times dutifully framed the judges' remarks as a concerted effort by the government to "defy" federal judges, but even Schiltz conceded that "most, if not all" of the alleged noncompliance "was due to incompetence" and "not due to conscious defiance of orders." Equally notable about the Times article, however, is the apparent admission that these judges coordinated with one another on ICE-related cases being filed before them. The Times noted how they "recalled seeking one another's counsel, meeting regularly and consulting in running email threads" as the "number of cases ramped up." While "some of their clerks made an informal spreadsheet showing whom to consult on particular legal questions," some judges "built templates of legal orders so they could respond quickly to some of the detention issues that were arising again and again," according to the outlet.
Here's another Fascist Holocaust -- the government has identified 10,000 US households with million dollar yearly incomes receiving unemployment insurance.
Families applying for food assistance through the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will, beginning Thursday, face changes to payments, eligibility requirements and how the benefits are administered. Most families will initially see a slight bump in their monthly payments to support grocery purchases from a cost-of-living adjustment, but in the coming months, households will face stricter eligibility requirements, meaning fewer people will receive the benefits, ABC News reported. Under new work requirements imposed by the "The Big Beautiful Bill Act," able-bodied adults ages 18 to 64 who don't have dependents will be required to work. Previously, the age limit was 54. Families with children age 14 or older are no longer exempt from the work requirements. The "The Big Beautiful Bill Act" also requires states to pay for a larger share of SNAP administrative costs, and states with SNAP recipient error rates above 6% will be required to fund a portion of the benefits themselves.
Ten thousand U.S. households that earned over $1 million collected unemployment benefits in 2024, receiving nearly $100 million in taxpayer money, according to data shared with The Washington Times. The data was given to the newspaper by Iowa GOP Sen. Joni Ernst, who received it from the IRS and who has tracked this issue for years. Among the most common millionaire claimants were engineers, software engineers, lawyers, executive managers and salespeople, according to the newspaper. High-tax, Democratic-led states topped the list of locations in which the millionaires who collected unemployment lived. California ranked first, followed by New York, Massachusetts and New Jersey. The payouts should end soon, as part of provision in last year's One Big Beautiful Bill Act barring individuals who earn $1 million or more from collecting unemployment benefits.This seems to be less of a foreign scam and more of people taking money they're technically entitled to, but shouldn't have been entitled to it. The Skydance/Paramount of Warner/Discovery is now official and Mark Rufallo is still a slack-jawed mope.

Jim Jordan calls for Deep State Operative Jack Smith to be criminally prosecuted.
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, on Monday renewed his calls for former Special Counsel Jack Smith to be prosecuted for allegedly lying to Congress following revelations that the prosecutor's team monitored the phone records of future Trump administration Chief of Staff Susie Wiles. Jordan first brought the matter of Smith's possible perjury to the fore in July of this year. Things are looking worse every week for Smith. Smith's team used a pen register device to track phone calls coming to and from Wiles' phone in 2023, while the special prosecutor was probing President Donald Trump for allegedly mishandling classified documents, as revealed by new documents declassified by the president and released by the White House Government Transparency Task Force on Monday.
GOP lawmakers deprived of constitutional rights, and a judge kept in the dark As he did in the past, Smith stands accused of legal legerdemain to not only hide the snooping from the lawmakers -- a likely violation of the Speech and Debate Clause of the Constitution -- but also failing to inform the judge he coaxed into signing a gag order that he was tracking communications from lawmakers. Lawmakers enjoy the right to be informed of subpoenas regarding their privileged communications, allowing them an opportunity to challenge (or "quash") the subpoenas. Wiles and other lawmakers never got that chance. Smith was already in the crosshairs for spying on the communications of members of Congress. A House Judiciary Committee review of Smith's investigations showed that the prosecutor's team collected phone toll records from 17 GOP members of Congress and text messages from as many as 44 lawmakers, some including information privileged to Congress. Among those targeted were former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., Jordan and others. One of those lawmakers, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., filed a lawsuit against Smith arguing his spying constituted an unauthorized intrusion into her civil rights. "[I]t's getting almost redundant here. We keep saying it every time. The only thing we get wrong is that it's always worse than we thought," Jordan told the Just the News, No Noise TV show on Monday. "And now we see Jack Smith not only getting the phone records of members of Congress, not only getting the phone records of the top top Republican legislative committee, not only getting the phone records of the Speaker of the House 16 days after he becomes Speaker of the House, second in line to the President. Now we find out he's getting the communication records of the President's Chief of Staff before she's Chief of Staff, but everyone knew that she was going to be, and she's one of the key people," he continued.
This is nonpartisan Special Counsel Jack Smith…

Trump on Iran: Let 'em take out Los Angeles and San Diego, it's a small price to pay https://t.co/Fc4BcjVDKj
— Headquarters (@HQNewsNow) October 6, 2026
Daniel DaleHe then excuses the leftwing hoaxers and blames Trump for the hoax, saying that it's really Trump's fault that the left misunderstands him.
@ddale8 This isn't a direct quote from Trump, and I very much don't think it's a correct paraphrase. Trump has repeatedly argued that the consequences of the war, like higher gas prices, are a small price to pay compared to what an unchecked Iran could allegedly do. Last night, in especially rambling and incomplete fashion, he 1) claimed high prices are temporary and suggested they're "artificial"; 2) contrasted that to the damage of Iran supposedly taking out a city; 3) and then, in especially confusing style, repeated his old point that "this," as in the consequences of the war, is a small price to pay to avoid something like a a city being wiped out.
It's Trump's fault you kinda have to be steeped in TrumpRallySpeak to know what he was saying last night, and of course you can say it's inappropriate regardless for the president to casually float the possibility of a city being wiped out, but the context exists and is important.Fuck you, Gayballz. Black Conservative Perspective clips a bunch of other leftwing liars, including Joe Scarborough and Leonard Jeffries' deranged nephew, pushing this newest hoax. Woke 1.0 was crazyyyy, man.

bottom line is when you put someone in office that has never had to struggle this is the results. When you cut children and senior citizens off but making profits for you and your family The big beautiful bill
The federal government, who causes this inflation of everything, won't allow for an increase of the snap budget. Cruelty is the entire point of this current administration.
Remember, remember, vote this November.

There is a high-ranking, and I mean high, DOD official who was plucked from retirement and through circumstances ended up much higher than he expected. His announcement of the appointment (he was part of an online show), of course, began with "whatever you think of this administration .....". Pathetic.

France actually did a good job (for Europe) assimilating small numbers of its former colonial subjects as immigrants, historically speaking. Obviously that pattern has stopped, or been overwhelmed. Familiar story, that part.

Strongly disagree. It is unemployment insurance. You are forced to pay into it. The money is deducted from your paycheck before you ever get your hands on it. If you are laid off, you should be able to claim it. Even if you have a high paying job. Even if you have been smart with your money, or even if you have some inherited wealth. You paid for the insurance, you get to collect if you become unemployed.

The news coverage of these RIOTS has been comical. They make a point to throw that "protesting for more school resources" in the very first paragraph of every article. Think about that one. THEY ARE BURNING DOWN SCHOOL RESOURCES, and the press is slurping up the damage control narrative of the perpetrators.
I think France is the warm-up...and I don't recommend being any EU or UK metro areas tomorrow. I noticed that the UK isn't on high alert for violence. Neither is the EU. They ought to be. I'd be boarding up my windows if I lived in London (hurricane style).

Listen, girl, you are asking your community to pay your bills for you. The least you can do is prove you qualify.

It does, though. Obama had the advantage of running against an unpopular war and a stock market meltdown. His opponent (McCain) for a moment looked like he would pull away but then he stomped on his own dick just as hard as he could, and lost.
He should have lost in 2012, but of course Mitt Romney decided to commit suicide during the presidential debate. Obama was blessed with his enemies..

There has always been some degree of fraud, but in 2020 it was massive and obvious. Michigan's old rules required in-person voting with ID and we could tally the votes quickly. The 'tell' was states halt counts, kicking out poll watchers, etc.
The thing is, it is very difficult to steal a ballot as long as Michigan's and the effects were felt downballot.
When Obama was on the ballot, the Michigan GOP faced an extinction-level event.
However, Biden got MORE votes and somehow the GOP held the House. Nope, that was crooked.

I firmly believe that a lot of that could be avoided by using the universities' own standards for in-state tuition.
Either students who are being charged out-of-state tuition are forbidden from voting in-state, or students are allowed to vote in-state and the university must only charge them in-state tuition.

I bet 10+ mill of the Harris vote was fraud as well, perhaps more.

In the 9 years I have been New Mexico every ballot midterm and presidential ballot has been over 50% Democrats or Democrat adjacent candidates running unopposed.
This is an improvement over the previous 7 years when I lived in DT Seattle; those ballots were 80% or Democrats or Democrat adjacent candidates running unopposed.

Chris Rock: Wokeness is Like Old Testament Morality -- Lots of Rules and No Grace for Violating Any of Them
The comedian claims it's "great" that we never stop talking about the "marginalized," but says there has to be forgiveness for transgressions. Or, I'd call them, fake and gay non-transgressions.
Actor-comedian Chris Rock continues to blast wokeness, and is now accusing left-wing scolds of running a Salem Witch Trials-like campaign with their cancel culture attacks. Rock has been taking shots at wokeness for a while, of course. He targeted the woke culture in his 2023 special Chris Rock: Selective Outrage . But in a recent interview on The Dailypodcast, Rock got explicit about woke culture and what it is doing to our country. "The problem with wokeness is we're in the Old Testament right now," he said. "And the Old Testament has no forgiveness. The Old Testament didn't work. So they had to write a remix called the New Testament." When asked if he felt there was anything "redeeming" that has come out of the last decade of woke leftism, he was not upbeat and noted that when things are "institutionalized" they often go badly. "The Salem witch hunts. I'm sure the first three witches they caught were actually fucking witches," Rock said. "But then you open up a witch office and now you've got to start lying. Now you've gotta fucking make s-hit up because you've got overhead. You've got to justify the witch hunters fucking pensions and shit."He added that the media is fake and full of liars, and that Trump is right to declare that.
Rock recently raised eyebrows during his press tour for his new film, Misty, when he said that Trump was right that the news media is filled with lies and fake news. "I'm not a fan," Rock said of Trump last week. "But it's weird when somebody gets one thing right, and the one thing almost clears them of all their other sins. The news is fake. He got that right."
💥 Chris Rock Speaks Out Against the Democrats’ Woke Industrial Complex
“It's great to help those that need help. That is amazing. We need more of that. The problem is when you institutionalize it … Now you gotta start lying. Now you gotta f**king make shit up, cause you got overhead.”— Chief Nerd (@TheChiefNerd) October 3, 2026

A town was attacked by the King's army and the residents had all closed themselves up in the cathedral. Many cried and shouted out they were faithful orthodox Catholics, they had nothing to do with the Cathars. The famous phrase was the commanders' orders to his men, and the entire town was slaughtered, faithful Catholics and heretics together.

I think that is partially true, but there is a larger mechanism at play.
Humans have an inherent desire to show virtue to the community, and the weak do it by point out other's deviation from the agreed rules. Scolds.
Religion satisfies this need by giving people a rule book, and an authority to interpret and temper those rules. Without religion, many people still need an outlet to show they have virtue. Some need to show they are the authority and know the rules better than anyone.
I see these kids on college campuses ejaculate out their righteousness based on rules they were told but don't understand. They are not yet credentialed, but they have all the anger and bitterness already.

I used to show that in Criminal Law class but stopped when the students started getting woke in Obama's second term. My point to them is a) police are not going to protect your rights in a stop, that is your duty, b) never be an obnoxious prick to cops on the side of the road with badges and guns. Take your arguments to court and protect your own rights by knowing them, not arguing with the cops trying to avoid taking a trip downtown.
They are not your teacher, parents, etc., and view their job as stopping crime and arresting criminals. Trying to insult and argue with them will result in worse things happening. Save it for an encounter in court with a judge and your own lawyer to prevent an educational beatdown resisting arrest on the side of the road charge.

Someone did some deep research on historical witch burnings in Merrye Olde England. Turned out that after making a database of all witch burnings for the last 1000 years or so, the researcher was surprised to find that over half of all that had ever been done happened in the 1640's - the decade when Britain was racked by civil war for years.
The suspicion/belief is that once central authority broke down for the most part, the easiest way to get rid of a neighbor you didn't like was to declare they were a Witch and burn them.

The ancient Greeks would agree with this.
I don't particularly as I think it is more protean than that. People try to raise their social level and drop those of their rivals. Men do it via aggression--verbal or physical, women by stealth and guile (veiled insults, social exclusion, etc.) but it is as if social signalling is going on to signify mating quality.

A perennial (well not that often) problem the Church had early one was the 'drop out' groups. From pretty early on the Church had to be a going concern in the real world to give charity and food to the city of Rome and the areas they ruled as a secular state. This was a problem with the year 1000 end of the world fad. But they needed to keep people growing crops and working to keep the operation going.

He was saying that Trump was heavily influenced by WWF and the art of drawing an audience, and Hulk Hogan. 40% of what he said was garbage, but this was a real insight and useful. He said that when WWF was losing audience, Hulk came out as a heel and it showed that people loved to hate him. It was great for the industry and for Hulk. He thinks Trump is doing the same in a lot of his tweets -- playing the heel just to get the audience and attention to a subject, and letting the facts of the subject get the glory.
He also talked about Dennis Rodman and how he went to Nork with globetrotters, met Kim, became friends, and that started Trump's interest in normalizing relations with them. As I said, he said a lot of junk, but the idea that Trump intentionally does things that people hate was very interesting. Anyone recognize the podcast?

Heh. I wish. The era of professors being able to exile a student were gone by the time I started teaching. Hordes of administrators that were not professors saw to that. Old days, administrators were not permanent jobs but one that faculty had to cycle through as a service, not as a career.
Instead, I started showing bits and pieces of old cop shows like the original 50's Dragnet or old movies like Hitchcock's The Wrong Man to illustrate how the law had changed to address certain issues with policing over time.

Religion satisfies this need by giving people a rule book, and an authority to interpret and temper those rules. Without religion, many people still need an outlet to show they have virtue. Some need to show they are the authority and know the rules better than anyone.
I see these kids on college campuses ejaculate out their righteousness based on rules they were told but don't understand. They are not yet credentialed, but they have all the anger and bitterness already.

There's a great essay at substack called "All the Worst Features of Church". It lays out how the left learned (kept) all of the worst things about "church" and NONE of the good things (like grace). It goes into great detail and presents many of its examples from the standpoint of the young, who lack any vested interest in *ignoring* the hypocrisy and inconsistencies. The author is Mark Atwood.

The Cathars were heretics, which was considered a challenge to the political order as well as corrupting the Church. Their orgies, the suicides, the libertine behavior, was all very corrosive. I believe the town that was slaughtered did shelter Cathars, and there was no way to tell one from the other, since they lied. Also, sheltering Cathars instead of denouncing them was considered harboring the enemy, which made even faithful Catholics suspect.
It is rather like the asshats who try to defend illegal aliens as some kind of good influence on American society, when we can prove they are corrosive in just about every way. When that defense moves kinetic, bad things happen, even if the actors are Americans.

Obama has been disliked by a chunk of the Left since nearly the beginning, once he started actually doing things and they realized that he was a blowhard with "preferences, not principles." We see him as a radical socialist, while they see him as a conservative corporate Dem; and the way to square that is by recalling that they have a powerful delusion that fascism is right-wing.
So the commies hate him for being the wrong kind of socialist, like how heretics are hated more than unbelievers. The DSA are arguably commies but really incoherent, and most Dems aren't them anyway; so the effect is hard to predict, but it's possible he could actually hurt them with the base.

Fear is a useful tool for oppression far more than violence in many cases because it internalizes the oppression to make people do what you want them to do. So making people fear you is more efficient than individually having to violently assault them for compliance. Besides, they might just kick your ass having nothing left to lose.

Personally, I don't believe that there would be ANY flooding problems. Warming in one area of the world means that another area gets colder. Rather like how the "permanent" ice cap in the Southern Hemisphere is always touted as shrinking in December... which would follow because December is MID-SUMMER in Antarctica.

Atheism in general is lacking in forgiveness and excessive in judgment. If one can never make a mistake without being crucified for it, and the rules change daily, then what is the point of going on? That's how we get Karens, both male and female.
It is rather like the way Ol' Moe changed his mind about what Allah wanted based upon what Moe wanted, particularly concerning murdering Jews and raping children.
An Atheist forms his god in his own image. Rather self-serving, in the long run. And completely lacking in morals and/or ethics.

And that white, liberal women were even worse?
That's decades of constant abuse and beratement of their minds that all evils everywhere are the fault of whites.
And it spent near as much energy in corrupting as it did its defense:

In my area growing up most of the rocks are Ordovician - trilobites, huge masses of coral-ish stuff, some brachiopod shells. The Appalachians had just been made and there was mass erosion to the East but it had not made the seas go away yet.

Yes, back when the ocean plastic was all the rage I just thought that if it got bad it would become a resource and people would go out and start mining it...which once people starting thinking on it actually happened. Another kid found easy ways to just break down the plastic.

That poll that shows that white liberals--and only white liberals--are the only group that has a negative affinity for those of their own race.
And that white, liberal women were even worse?
That's decades of constant abuse and beratement of their minds that all evils everywhere are the fault of whites.
And it spent near as much energy in corrupting as it did its defense:
That to even name it was to be called a racist.
To say nothing of daring to say, "this woke is nothing but anti-white racism;" that'd get you called a hood-wearing, card-carrying Klansman burning crosses and hanging Negros.
Posted by: People's Hippo Voice at October 06, 2026 05:18 PM
What I find ridiculous with the entire woke movement is that is for the most part it is white people sitting around bitching about white people being racist because of the color of their skin at birth. There are very few blacks involved in the entire process. The ones that are involved are held up as demi gods and their words are sacrosanct and they can't be questioned ever.

This is near-universal and a defining element of how degraded and weak and worthless most of our society has become, especially anyone with any public profile at all.
There is a high-ranking, and I mean high, DOD official who was plucked from retirement and through circumstances ended up much higher than he expected. His announcement of the appointment (he was part of an online show), of course, began with "whatever you think of this administration .....". Pathetic.

Partly. But it's way more than a racial thing. You can't achieve this result without high-intensity, broad-spectrum psychological abuse of large populations - it has to permeate everything before all the tumblers lock in, and the rest of machine can turn around it.
Then it can be anyone. If blacks or Hispanics or the Samoans become a target, then it could just as easily be them within a few months. It's an all-purpose thing.
I argue that the East Germans were closest to effecting the desired result, save for the catastrophic failure of nerve among their fickle Russian masters.
But we are going full tilt toward the proof-of-concept here.

Saudi Arabia Joins Yemen's Government in Attacking Iran's Houthi Proxy Army
The IRGC's proxy army in Yemen, the Houthis, struck two Saudi airfields, with light damage. More seriously, they had also seized key positions on the southern tip of the Yemeni coast on the Red Sea, opening a second front for the IRGC to attack the export of oil in an effort to force the world to stop Trump from destroying them.
The terrorist-aligned AP:Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey have sent their own troops to assist the Yemeni government in driving the Houthis back out of the coastal areas.
Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation said airports in the cities of Najran and Jizan were hit on Monday, damaging both facilities and leaving three lightly injured. The statement didn't say who was responsible, but followed an announcement by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels that they fired missiles and drones at the kingdom. Houthi Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree said in a statement on Tuesday they had fired toward a third airport on Tuesday. The Associated Press could not confirm whether the Houthis had hit Abha International Airport. Saudi authorities did not immediately comment. The Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen said Tuesday it intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile launched by the Iran-backed Houthis toward Khamis Mushait, a city in southwestern Saudi Arabia that's home to a major Saudi military base.
... The Houthis were fighting Tuesday around Dhubab, a strategic town in Yemen that its internationally recognized government had previously said it had retaken, a senior Yemeni military official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to reporters. Saudi Arabia and its allies in Yemen's government have launched a military campaign to reclaim Houthi-controlled territory near the southern tip of the Red Sea to prevent disruptions to oil being exported out of the region.AP is excited that Iran managed to hit a tanker moving out of the Strait of Hormuz, though the hit does not seem to have killed anyone, stopped the tanker from moving, or caused any oil to spill.
An outbound tanker transiting the Strait of Hormuz was struck by an "unknown projectile" on Monday, the British military said in a late report Tuesday. There were no immediate reports of casualties or environmental impact. Even as Iran has lost its near-complete chokehold on the strait, the ongoing risk of Iranian attacks keeps overall ship traffic well below prewar levels.Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey have activated the "Mecca Defense Alliance" to evict the Houthis.
Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey have agreed to "activate collective defense commitments amid ongoing threats," Saudi Arabia's Arab News said on October 6. This is an important step. The new alliance has emerged over the last several months. The Houthi offensive in September in Yemen presented the coalition with its first major test. This is because the Houthis launched missiles at Saudi Arabia and directly harmed Saudi citizens. Arab News said that "Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey on Monday agreed to immediately implement collective-defense commitments under the previously agreed Mecca Defense Alliance, including the swift deployment of agreed forces and other military capabilities to the Kingdom amid ongoing threats." Saudi Arabia has been working over the last month to prepare a counter-offensive in Yemen. This initiative came after setbacks hit the forces of the internationally recognized government of Yemen, which lost ground around the Bab el-Mandeb strait. Many observers wondered whether Pakistan and Turkey would come to Riyadh's aid. All of these countries are either partners or close allies of the US, and they have access to advanced military equipment, partly as a result of their US affiliation. However, it was not clear that Turkey would want to get involved in a conflict in Yemen. In part, this is because Ankara tries to balance relations with Iran, with which it shares a border. Pakistan also has ties with Iran and shares a border with Iran.Update: More details on the fighting from Duane Patterson.
Advertisement Now, Turkey and Pakistan appear to be increasing their support for Riyadh. "The decision was announced following an emergency meeting of the alliance's Strategic Political and Defense Committee in Riyadh to discuss security developments and threats Saudi Arabia is facing during the regional conflict with Iran and its proxies. The alliance was formed by an agreement signed on August 7," Arab News observed.

Most of the "tankers" Iran has hit are cargo vessels that docked with Iran (humanitarian aid is allowed through the blockade, all of which are boarded and inspected by the US Navy).

Their rial is roughly 2.7 million to the USD and there's open urban warfare between IRGC and Basij forces and some kind of uprising.
The actual economy has collapsed and the barter system has mostly replaced any currency.
Iran has no access to dollars and can only pay their troops in rials which can't buy anything.
The humanitarian aid isn't doing much. I doubt it's even pumping the brakes.

Trump getting troops out of that region and us staying out is a good recipe. Same for Euroland choosing to surrender to the Islamic horde. Euros need to be told that they killed NATO and we have no further obligations to fight and die so that they can piss on Americans, try to fleece us in trade, and create messes abroad that we have to fix like Libya.
That will also give Israel freedom to strike at the nasty bastards as needed.

Supposedly Saudis paid for the Pakis to get nukes just in case Iran etc. got frisky.

Do these attacks just do some damage to the tankers?? Why isn't iran trying to sink tankers but rather just causing damage to them. Like won't sinking one or two ships (which the US has done to iran near the indian coast) raise human capital and insurance to an unprecedented scale?
Iran is just doing enforcement, not trying to escalate with these strikes. Removing a ship from service for weeks, months or more is doing plenty. It ensures that normal traffic cannot return to the Strait which seems to be their strategic goal for the time being.
Iran gets a significant amount of food from fishing the strait. If they sank a fully or even partially loaded tanker the amount of oil released could be catastrophic to that food supply. Not to mention ancillary ecological affects to the area.

We recognized the north ("Houthis") from 1946 to 1967, when they kicked us out, then again from 1972 to 1990. We recognized the south from 1972 to 1990 (and arguably until today).

Houthis have been lobbing Iranian missiles at the Saudis now even before these recent events. Saudis and UAE invaded the Houthis and got their asses kicked by degenerate drug addicts of the Houthis back in the Trump I term.
I think the Saudi back stabbing ways has disgusted Trump to the degree that when they asked us to bomb the Houthis, we told them to do it themselves--as long as the Houthis left US shipping alone, we were not going to be a Saudi rent a cop.

It's actually pretty hard to sink a modern ship... especially with missile strikes.

Assuming they still have the missiles, and the targeting systems, and that they don't get intercepted.
Mostly, it seems to be smaller drones with, effectively, a grenade as explosive payload.

Oil and Gas are also about as dense as water or lighter. There are a number of cases in WWII of savaged tankers hanging around for days. One was the Tanker Ohio sending fuel to Malta, it took 2 destroyers tied alongside to move her the last day or so travel and once they pumped out the fuel the keel of the ship broke and it sunk in harbor, but saved Malta from having to surrender.

Clinton and Bush covered up the Saudi officials being involved in 9/11 and likely in the Khobar Towers bombing because we needed their oil and both Clinton world and Bush world were corrupted by sheikh money.
We don't need their oil anymore and we don't need those bastards planting mosques in this country nor Euroland in order to support the Muzzie invasion of the West.

They do. Russia and the Ukes used it here or there over the years. You can fry out the drone itself and it worked for a while, now they harden them up more if they care.
Plus those EMP carriers are uncommon, so there's room for the cheap ones for scouting, screwing with the grunts in the cracks. If they have a good target they send in a big and fast one directly.

Plus, their manufacturing base and missile stockpile.

Last night my husband and I watched a blue ball of light in the field next to my house less than 10 feet off the ground, soundless and it covered more than half a mile in about 2 seconds. My husband was strangely silent when we came back in the house and while I was watching this a barn owl shrieked behind me in the tree. Just bizarre and I'm hoping Vandenberg has some spiffy new tech. No noise and crickets were still chirping.
We also saw something else Thursday with four people seeing different things but during the day, for an hour.

I'm with you. Armour solved the problem of anti-armor rounds by having reactive armor that blows up the round before it blows up the armor underneath.
The rounds countered that by having two stacked shaped charges - the first one blows up the reactive armor, the second then hits the armor blowing up the vehicle.
OK so why can't drones blow a hole in the fence first? Maybe it takes two drones, but that should not be a big deal. They could probably ride the same fiber and work in coordination. But I don't see that happening so I guess I am wrong.

well the owl makes it surely Vandenburg.
A small drone with a light and presumably a camera for observation fits pretty well. Sound would be minimal at a distance. Estimations of height, speed and the like are often not too trustworthy because if you think its far, then a moderate speed becomes blazing fast.

Five years after his seven-year tenure as head of the BND foreign intelligence service ended in 2005, Hanning agreed with a former BND office manager to receive confidential intelligence information in exchange for payment, according to prosecutors.
So, 2010 and later.

It's just dope for the home market, which was largely born dumb before they even got their first jar of Gerber's Tot-Khat puree.
Then, to make matters *even worse,* water-intensive Khat production accounts for 40% of the irrigated arable land in a country that is perennially malnourished and short of potable water.
But... the Houthi militias control the Khat trade, so it works for them.

its hard to blow holes in a fence, as the force goes through holes. In WWI artillery had a hell of a time blowing apart barbed wire reliably. Then you have to have the second drone hit the same gap, on a vehicle bouncing down a road at 30 mph.
And as for having multiple drones on the same optic cable, that's not gonna help, the cable isn't a guide its just a tail.

Presumably you could design a chain link fence defeater but it would cost more than just designing a drone that fires a ground attack missile from an aircraft with a lot of mass behind it. And that costs more than the average truck or SUV driving about in the warzone.

Germany Arrests Its Former Top Spymaster for Treason, Accusing Him of Spying for a Foreign Power
The foreign power is reportedly not Russia.
Germany's former spy chief, August Hanning, was arrested on Tuesday for alleged treason, with Berlin accusing him of gathering sensitive documents for a foreign spy service. "Hanning is strongly suspected of treasonous espionage, obtaining state secrets, attempted treason and espionage," German prosecutors said in a statement, according to Reuters. Hanning previously served as president of the Federal Intelligence Service (BND). ... His arrest marks a major scandal for the German state, with prosecutors alleging that Hanning's espionage occurred over multiple years and involved more than 2,000 documents.China, maybe? Surely not Iran. I'm afraid it will turn out to be a western nation. Speaking of treason, a watchdog agency concludes that Biden deliberately risked the country's national security by allowing known security risks to remain in the country on expired visas.
The Biden administration risked national security by letting millions of foreigners illegally overstay their nonimmigrant visas, including 104,000 who posed threats, while launching fewer than 500 investigations to remove violators, according to a bombshell report by the Homeland Security Department's internal watchdog. "From fiscal years 2021 to 2024, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) took few enforcement actions using targeted leads concerning foreign nationals who overstayed or otherwise violated their nonimmigrant visa terms of admission," the inspector general reported. "As a result, foreign nationals who potentially posed threats to the United States remained at large despite their illegal status," the report added. The report laid bare a Biden strategy that de-emphasized tracking down foreigners overstaying their permission to stay in the country, leaving a staggering statistical mess that included: 3,145,375 nonimmigrant visa overstays 104,049 foreigners who were deemed national security and public safety concerns ICE conducted just 496 investigations and arrested just eight foreigners The watchdog traced the crisis to a September 2021 policy change that directed Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) "to only investigate "Priority 1" leads -- those potentially posing the highest threat to national security or public safety. "Of the 1,769 viable Priority 1 leads, HSI initiated only 84 investigations (about 5 percent), resulting in two arrests," it added. "The other 3,041,326 (96.7 percent) overstay leads were deemed Non-Priority."

Does that mean visas were issued to known national security and public safety risks? Or that they were discovered to be risks only after visas issued?

🚨EXCLUSIVE: Two United Airlines pilots deadheading on a flight operated by Ibrahim Mossallam after his return from a leave of absence reportedly gave up their first-class seats and spent the entire flight in the cockpit instead.
Why? According to sources familiar with the incident, they did not trust him and wanted to keep a close eye on him throughout the flight.
Sources also say United wanted to terminate Mossallam’s employment, but the pilots’ union blocked the move.

The watchdog traced the crisis to a September 2021 policy change that directed Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) "to only investigate "Priority 1" leads -- those potentially posing the highest threat to national security or public safety.
"Of the 1,769 viable Priority 1 leads, HSI initiated only 84 investigations (about 5 percent), resulting in two arrests," it added. "The other 3,041,326 (96.7 percent) overstay leads were deemed Non-Priority."

The fact is we have no idea who is here. There are reportedly countless operatives from foreign intelligence agencies hostile to the US in the country conducting all types of surveillance and reconnaissance activities. You will get many official denials from agencies saying that modern satellite techniques make those activities of minimal value. But the fact is you now have threat actors inside our borders who can carry out direct action and up close surveillance. How do we know? Because we have caught some recon operatives doing things like photographing sensitive facilities, military bases, and people within the national defense including SOF and their families.
It is a very dangerous time. Stay frosty.

One of the 'Cornell 7' fraternity brothers hit with explosive sexual assault allegations stemming from an alleged gang rape at the Ivy League school is believed to have retreated to Dubai, the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal.
Umar Matthew Ingalls won a coveted place at Cornell University in 2023, but his promising future unraveled after a female former student accused him and six other men of sexually assaulting her during a fraternity party in October 2024.
Ingalls, 21, was later expelled from Cornell following an internal university investigation.
One of Ingalls' neighbors told the Daily Mail they believe he has returned to the Middle East, where he enjoyed a privileged upbringing and attended an elite private school in Emirates Hills, the wealthy enclave often dubbed the 'Beverly Hills of Dubai.'

They can get sued for failing to represent. It’s crazy. But you can usually tell by the level of gusto chosen whether they really care or not, or if they can get some cheap grievance settlement to move on down the road. Would they take this all the way to arbitration? Probably. But they might not really want to do that.

Guys like Hanning are a good example why spy chieftains need to be stripped of high level clearances and be read out of their bureaus once retired.
And we need severe punishments for anyone passing intel to a retiree, or receiving it. Such as being spun around in a hot oil drum full of carpet tacks.
When you're out, you're out, and no more trading on
intel for you. Go find a pond full of ducks to lure in with bread and then break their necks if you want a taste of the ol' glory days of treachery and sadism.

Trump Gives Order to Subject Fort Hood Terror Shooter Nidal Malik Hasan His Own Bout of State-Sanctioned Workplace Violence
Last week I linked an article asking rhetorically, why is this terrorist murderer, who killed 13 people, still drawing air, despite having been convicted and sentenced to death?
Why has Trump not given the execution order yet? Well, Trump signed the order. This is the AP, so expect some bias in reporting this.President Donald Trump has approved the execution by firing squad of Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan for the 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood, Texas. The U.S. military has not carried out the death penalty since 1961. The Army secretary will decide a time and place for the execution, Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell wrote in a post on X. "Judgement day for Hasan has finally come," Parnell wrote. Hasan, an Army psychiatrist, walked into a medical building where soldiers were getting medical checkups, shouted "Allahu akbar" -- Arabic for "God is great!" -- and opened fire with a laser-sighted handgun. Thirteen people were killed and more than 30 injured. He said it was an effort to stop them from going to Afghanistan and killing his fellow Muslims and made almost no effort to defend himself at trial. He told jurors that evidence would show he was the shooter and described himself as a soldier who had "switched sides." ... Death sentences are extremely rare in the military justice system, and executions even rarer.It is also rare for a "soldier" to murder 13 of his fellows and wound 30 others while shouting terrorist murder-slogans. The AP adds another irrelevant factoid to show How Terrible This All Is.
... Trump approved the firing squad execution days after a failed attempt to execute Christa Pike by lethal injection pushed Tennessee's governor to halt further executions this year and order an independent review.What has that got to do with anything? Since AP added that unrelated factoid to show how barbaric it is to punish murderers with death, I'll mention that the prison official overseeing Christa Pike's botched execution has resigned.
The head of Tennessee's prison system is set to resign after the botched execution of Christa Pike earlier this week, Gov. Bill Lee announced Saturday. Lee said that Tennessee Department of Correction Commissioner Frank Strada will step down this month, but did not offer any other specifics. Strada said in a statement that he believes "the Department carried out its responsibilities in accordance with the established protocol," but that "stepping aside is in the best interest" of the state's residents as an independent review ordered by Lee begins. "I believe this review is entirely appropriate and necessary, and I look forward to doing everything I can to help determine exactly what occurred," Strada said. Strada was named commissioner by Lee in January 2023. Pike was set to be executed by lethal injection on Wednesday, but the process failed twice. Pike's attorneys said Friday that she is unconscious and intubated in a Nashville-area hospital. She is using a ventilator to breathe and has significant injuries to both arms, her attorneys said. Hospital staff is working to clear the pentobarbital from her body.

Yes, it's usually reported that she carved a pentagram into Slemmer's chest and then bashed her head in with a rock.
But before that, Pike and the other girl took turns carving Slemmer up with a box cutter and knife. Over 100 (!) slices were made.
Then Pike carved a pentagram. Slemmer was alive during all this. Then Pike repeatedly smashed her head with a rock until she died.
Pure, unadulterated demonic evil. Pazuzu is thinking "wow, this bitch is evil." We haven't invented punishment severe or painful enough for what Pike deserves.

Maybe 26, 27 years ago, a comedian I saw was going on about a story that was in the headlines at the time about a guy who was deemed "too fat to hang." His solution? "Make him climb a flight of stairs. If that doesn't work, two flights, if that doesn't work, three flights. Eventually, he'll have the heart attack. Or, he'll lose weight and we can hang his ass. A little plan I like to call the Stairmaster of Justice."

Unfortunately the Eighth Amendment bans cruel and usual punishment. In part, because the Brits were so inventive with gruesome punishments. Sepoy Rebellion, they executed rebels by strapping them across cannons making them 'cannonized' martyrs. Starvation in basket cages on castle walls, drawing and quartering, etc. And they even dug up Cromwell's body, decapitated him, and posted his decaying skull on a post for awhile. Gibbeting where the purpose of hanging the person was not designed to snap the neck but instead slowly strangle the person was another when they did not feel like pressing someone or dunking to determine if they were a witch.
By comparison, the guillotine was a step forward in executions.

I do know that one state, Alabama, used nitrogen. Basically all means of ensuring death cannot be assured of not causing issues and failure.
Helium could also be used as well as carbon monoxide. But the allegations are about being inhumane is because at least for some gases, there is a struggle to breathe producing something like a panic of someone drowning. Morbid subject.

AI Overview: Internal memos show some supervisors openly questioned whether Hasan was developing psychosis or was mentally unstable. However, despite these severe warnings, his chain of command never ordered a formal mental health evaluation or psychiatric intervention. Instead, they chose to pass him along to another base by sanitizing his performance reviews.
They saved themselves aggravation by letting him go on, just like in so many other murders.

When drinks are tested for date-rape drugs, usually alcohol is the only one that they test positive for.
But a shockingly large number of women (and men for that matter) don't realize that alcohol is, in fact, a date-rape drug. It's 1. a CNS depressant 2. with calories, so it's metabolized by muscle. Which men have much more of.
Of course, if people are also openly doing ketamine at a party, that takes it to the next level. That (plus a hot tub) was the combo that killed Matthew Perry, IIRC, and he was an experienced user with a personal assistant. The people in this incident were self-roofied to the max.

This tells you who they are. This tells you what they are. This is a disgrace. This is not England. This is Islamic Britain. The government of this country, the police and the mayor of London, the Muslim Sadiq Khan, are celebrating the murder of Jews.

Christians were burned alive at the stake. The whole idea that the executed should not suffer is a modern conceit, not a core belief of Christianity as such. Same with issues like stocks, flogging, etc.
Society in the past was not crueler (see probably a million per year of babies being aborted for that) but rather more common sense because the idea of keeping a murderous monster alive watching pron and exercise, and even in some states, conjugal visits with ghoulish women that marry/have sex with these creeps. That would be viewed as cruel to society and their victims.
Thus the rotten fruit of today where the victims are shunted aside and ignored while the monsters are feted in the media and by wicked groups blaming society rather than the monster for what they did.
We are both more stupid and less moral than our forefathers as a society and misplaced compassion for perps is to blame.

I was always told, if you have to kill something make it quick.
Might be painful, but if it's quick enough, that pain's hardly going to register with whatever you've killed.
(Also helps prevent you from changing your mind about trying to kill it, if you're already done and not listening to it suffer.)
If it's good enough for animals that needed killing, it should be good enough for humans that needed killing.

• These non-toxic or minimally toxic gases push oxygen out of the air in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces. Normal air has about 21% oxygen; levels below 19.5% are considered dangerous.
• Common examples: Nitrogen, helium, argon, neon, and methane.
Or, a few seconds with a bit of sinus pain attached?
Hydrogen sulfide: It smells like rotten eggs at low levels (0.5 to 5 ppm), but high concentrations (>100 ppm) rapidly deaden the sense of smell (olfactory fatigue), making the gas dangerously undetectable by scent.
• Prevents cells from using oxygen even when blood oxygen levels are normal.

Excerpt:
"The remarks quickly circulated online, drawing sharp condemnation from California officials who portrayed Trump's remarks as an invitation to attack those cities or downplaying such an attack, even as it appeared Trump was warning the cities could be vulnerable if Iran obtained a nuclear weapon. The White House said Trump's remarks were clearly about safeguarding Americans."

In Pennsylvania, dyed diesel fuel is entirely exempt from both the state liquid fuels tax (74.1 cents) and the federal excise tax (24.4 cents) under normal circumstances. Because it is sold tax-free, it can only legally be purchased and used for qualifying off-road purposes.

And Cornell expelled two of the guys, suspended another two, and barred another (he already graduated) from campus. What more were they supposed to do? Cut off the guy's dicks?

wtf is going on in the country? Why does Trump have a say in everything? He acts like a king and we let him. There are judges and other people of authority. Keep the president out of it. We are crazy! For letting him act this way.
same thing Trump did last time before the election. Starting a killing spree of people on death row to rile up the lowest instincts of his voters

On the one hand, okay. I guess that since he can't remove the diesel tax (Congress's job) that might be a way to reduce transport expenses, at least until all the gas stations jack their dyed diesel prices to undyed levels to get that much more money for themselves.
On the other hand, the truckers cause more wear than all the passenger vehicles do, because heavier loads, why should they not be paying the taxes that - at least allegedly - fund road maintenance?

This kind of thing is a demoralization op, not being conquered as such. It is meant to show that there is no way to win with government and Muzzies shoulder to shoulder. But it is also bullshit. Because both conditions are changeable. Muzzies are not anywhere near a majority in UK and this government,like all others can fall to citizens.

As I recall, the SS went to death vans and then to full on gas chambers at least in part because of the effect of all that killing on the executioners. Insanity was a problem, but also I believe that they were afraid of what would happen when the executioners had completed their work and re-entered German society having gotten used to killing without remorse. I believe that was talked about extensively at the Wannsee Conference where Heydrich and the rest of those bastards planned out the killing.

Cornell 7 Frat Brother: I Was Too Drunk to Give Consent, She Raped Me
It is true that almost everyone involved was drunk and drugged (by themselves).
Why isn't it true that the accuser raped the boys, who, per the new feminist theory that being drunk negates any concept of consent, also could not consent to the female attacker's advances?A "Cornell 7" frat bro accused in the alleged gang-rape of a young woman claimed to campus cops that he was too wasted to consent to sex with her -- suggesting he was the real victim, according to records. Matthew Ingalls -- one of the seven Chi Phi fraternity brothers at the center of the explosive Ivy League case -- told Cornell University police that he was the one too intoxicated from booze and ketamine to consent to sex that fateful 2024 night, records obtained by ABC News showed. Ingalls suggested that the alleged victim -- a then-20-year-old student only identified as Jane Doe in court papers -- was the one who therefore assaulted him during the debauched and drunken night and not the other way around, as she has claimed. Ingalls has previously been identified as the frat brother who told his friends through a fraternity group chat to "come whip it out" after another had announced there was "free p--sy" to be had in the house, referring to the accuser. "Like you can walk in and whip it out," he wrote in the chat, which had nearly 60 people in it. "Boys come whip it out." Ingalls was the brother who first invited Doe over to the house and propositioned her for a threesome that allegedly devolved into various brothers coming into the room to take turns having sex with her. They are accused of plying her with booze and ketamine during the encounter, which she claimed later incapacitated her to the point that she couldn't consent to anything beyond that. Ingalls allegedly fell asleep at one point during the sexual encounter -- prompting another brother to reportedly take his place -- before he woke again later and rejoined the sex, documents released by the Tompkins County District Attorney's Office showed. ... Ingalls' reported comments to cops were just the latest twist in the confusing case, which has seen contradicting claims from all parties involved -- including Doe herself, who originally assured Ingalls everything they did together was consensual, Cornell documents showed. But that idea slowly began to shift in the ensuing weeks as she kept thinking about how the night transpired and after rumors began swirling around campus and people suggested Doe had been raped. She reportedly began to feel the same way.I insist that if it takes you weeks of reflection and rumination to "realize" you were raped -- you were not raped at all. The daydrinking emptyheaded leftwing housewives of TikTok are bored and so they need something new to shriek about:
Byron YorkEverything I Don't Like is DRUMPF!!!
@ByronYork The political path of the Cornell rape allegation: 1) Initial police/DA investigation finds woman's participation was "voluntary, conscious, and consensual." No criminal charges filed. 2) Cornell University Office of Civil Rights investigation reaches finding consistent with police/DA, but concludes fraternity members violated school policies. Expels two frat members, suspends two others, bars one from campus, and shuts down fraternity permanently. 3) Seemingly settled, case fades. 4) Woman changes story, files much-publicized lawsuit blaming incident on fraternity, members, Cornell University, local bar, and her own sorority. 5) Case explodes politically. Local DA re-opens criminal investigation. NY governor appoints AG Letitia James, famous for pursuing President Trump, as special prosecutor. 6) Media narrative emerges blaming Trump for alleged "glorification of being thuggish and swaggering and mistreating women is kind of making you a cool kid."
I am Stronk and Empowered and Capable of Making My Own Decisions but also I want an infinite number of female nannies and male authority figures to tell me what, or who, I can put into my body. You know, the feminists are always complaining that in Victorian times, women were treated "like children." And they're demanding we return to that system -- when they want that system in place, at least. They may wind up getting their wish, because people have had enough of this shit.
The woman also sued her own sorority, Delta Delta Delta, both the local chapter and the national organization. The lawsuit says that before she arrived at the Chi Phi fraternity house that night, she had "consumed about 10 standard drinks within the past 3 hours." Looking at the lawsuit's timeline, it appears nearly all of that drinking took place at the Delta Delta Delta sorority house. The lawsuit said that Delta Delta Delta "held itself out to the public, and more particularly to [the woman] herein, as possessing the proper degree of safety measure to adequately protect its members and to use reasonable care and diligence in its monitoring and policing of the [local chapter's] house and those living in and utilizing said house." In other words, the woman is suing her sorority for allegedly not putting a stop to her heavy drinking.
... The governor of New York, Kathy Hochul, then named state Attorney General Letitia James as a special prosecutor for the case. James, of course, is legendary for campaigning for office on a platform of pursuing President Donald Trump, and then, once elected, concocting an elaborate but embarrassingly thin fraud lawsuit against Trump.... The lesson of the Trump case is that if Letitia James wants to get someone, she will figure out a way to get someone, whether or not it's a case that will hold up in court. The Chi Phi members will need to prepare for that. When the accuser's lawyers released her lawsuit, a number of observers pointed to the evidence that authorities originally gathered in the days and weeks after the 2024 incident. It seemed clear that the woman had consented to what took place, a conclusion supported both by the county district attorney and the Cornell Office of Civil Rights, which conducted the university's investigation. Some predicted the case would go nowhere. But now the matter is in a new realm -- the realm of politics....
It seems likely the case will become even more political in coming days and weeks. And, as with everything else in our society, it will become to some degree about Trump. A media narrative, and a social media debate, will emerge in which the fraternity members become associated with Trump, and the woman becomes associated with the forces of good and decency standing up to Trump. On ABC News's This Week on Sunday, the New York Times's Michelle Cottle pointed to a series of noxious social media messages the fraternity members sent about the woman. "You can't send those messages, no matter how drunk you are, as a frat boy without having some kind of misunderstanding about what women are there for and whether this is a real person you're dealing with," Cottle said. And who might be to blame for that? Cottle pointed to Trump. "And that, I think, starts, you know, we can go to the president for this one," Cottle continued. "I mean, we are in a moment in this culture where the glorification of being thuggish and swaggering and mistreating women is kind of making you a cool kid." It took just a couple of weeks from the lawsuit being filed to a newscast explaining that Trump was somehow involved. And it's likely that the politicization of this case is just getting started.
Here are a few stories of horrific, violent crimes committed against women from just the last month or so.
While the Cornell case is plastered wall-to-wall across legacy media, these crimes and their victims garner zero attention, and zero outrage. You can see why. https://t.co/NV1PJW4kos— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) October 6, 2026

This is a media-Dem op aimed to raise college female voting participation (like in NH). If you noticed, a federal judge in NH just set aside a legitimate state law that banned use of student ids in NH for voting.
NH has long had an issue with out of state (and probably foreign too) students voting in their elections so they banned the practice unless the students show some legitimate ties to NH like driver's license, etc.

I think the fake and gay criminal investigation is meant to help the civil litigation (and boost female college turnout for Holchul) and give a big payday from the organizations like Tri Delt, the frat, Cornell, etc. and their insurers.
It is meant to pressure the institutions involved to settle quickly in order to prevent national reputations from being damaged.

That was the common thinking, but the reality is her motive is as old as time: revenge. Hell hath no fury and all.
The missing piece of the puzzle for me was why her texts to the guys -- yes, she was texting her supposed rapists -- suddenly turned accusatory in late October. Before that, her texts were friendly and even solicitous of another encounter with her rapists.
I thought it was because she hadn't yet realized how embarrassing the episode was for her in the gossip mill. But that seemed off, because the story went viral within hours.
Then I learned that she was uninvited from the frat halloween party. She was angry about that in the texts she sent to the guys. She then immediately went hostile with her texts, and went to the cops a week later.
This whole thing is basically just revenge for dissing her on the invite. "Mattress Girl" all over again. I initially had sympathy for her. I don't any more.

It all goes back to booze, underage drinking (or drugs). And most of the time the male is blamed.
Does not matter if SHE initiates sex, texts about sex, or provides the booze/drugs.
In this case she did sex for drugs (as she was already drunk). Same as prostitution.
She and the boys are trash. However, I don't consider this rape.
Rape is when you call 911, file with police and get a rape kit at the ED. Those are the proper channels. Vs delayed guilt or that one boy does not want to be your boyfriend revenge rape story.

I'm not talking about the individual reactions in women, but in how Democrats are desperate to activate their own base.
This isn't meant to appeal to married women who vote Republican, or black men who are trending away from the party, or white working class males.
It's a direct appeal to young, white single women. One of the two most loyal voting blocs Democrats have, begging them to vote.
It's not rank emotionalism from the efforts by the press and Dem figures to front this in the national consciousness. It's desperate electioneering from a very specific case:

If a woman is raped or sexually assaulted, she goes immediately to the ER and/or police. Immediately. Like within hours, or at least the next day.
She doesn't wait almost a month. She doesn't text her rapists telling them she had a good time. She doesn't fish around for an invite to the Rape House halloween party.
I never believed any of these belated "I WUZ RAPEDED" tall tales of bullshit, because they are so far afield from how I know truly abused and raped women act.

This is a media-Dem op aimed to raise college female voting participation (like in NH). If you noticed, a federal judge in NH just set aside a legitimate state law that banned use of student ids in NH for voting.
Posted by: whig at October 06, 2026 12:16 PM (E4rtv)
Exactly. I only wonder if it was an op from the start of simply taken by the activists for those purposes.
I have to assume that Lucy would have had a better lawyer if it was an op from the start. But since the activists don't really care about the final results they may have gotten a terrible lawyer and they can get their headlines for the next month as planned. (And then cry later about the injustice of losing with their terrible lawyer.)
So I have no idea. Only the money will tell.

90% of all voting behavior is self-starting.
No amount of mailers, TV ads, or door knocking will change that.
And most of that 90% is "how important is this election to me?" Local elections don't move people. State level elections move people more. Federal, statewide elections move people the most.
If you want to juice turnout, the only thing that can help at the margins is individual voter contact. Join a phone bank or knock on doors. It'll help at the margins.
But, ultimately, it's just a question of which side decides that they might vote this year more than the other side. On their own.
Blue turnout is down more than red turnout so far. It's kind of a best case scenario for how politics actually works.

Captain (or a newly-promoted further) Oliva Benson, still traumatized that huwhite Nazi incels online tried to recruit her son, will bravely believe this stronk and independent woyman and work the case until the Cornell 7 are quivering, repentant masses on the witness stand.
Benson will then use this case to establish even more legal precedents about rape being a hate crime against women and that men can never, ever lose consent due to intoxication.

I am so proud of the young woman who not only reported this to the police initially, but also is now suing on her own after they failed her. And the investigation is being reopened thanks to the online outrage. Make them pay financially and with jail time if you can!! Do it for yourself and for all the women who weren't even able to report. After my SA, I went into shock and never reported. Getting through the day was all I could manage. Your strength gives me so much hope for the Gen Z generation of women. Amazing woman!!!!
Big big settlement, I hope, as in millions. We must expect Cornell will be defending itself with bots and pundits very soon, and there are already bad actors trying to dox and shame her and redirect the conversation. They may have been initially caught out by public outrage, but pushback will be happening.
I just learned that 5 only had to write "reflective essays"?? Holy shit I hope the rest of these mfs' lives are hell on Earth. Its so fucking gross that the university admin is ACTIVELY protecting these fucking rapists.

Based on what we know this was almost certainly a popular "jock" frat that probably held a lot of prestige and leverage on campus. The pics of the guys I've seen all look like above-average looking, athletic guys.
I'm sure there were other girls willing to do almost anything if it meant getting "in" with an A-List Frat.
Just like older versions of these girls seek out guys with yachts, and are willing to sell their bodies for it, the college-aged versions seek out prestigious frats, and are willing to sell their bodies for it.

She didn't do ten shots before arriving. She would have been unconscious before she got there. That is her after the fact claim on a recorded phone call she had with the kid that invited her. His response to her claim was "that's not what you told me you told me you hadn't been anywhere else first." Oh I am sure she was liquored up, but she perambulated there successfully under her own power - didn't get lost, distracted or fall down and go boom. Getting drunk doesn't disable your ability to consent. She wasn't unconscious, didn't claim she blacked out until after she had already agreed to several group sex sessions per her statement to the AG. She said she didn't know if anything happened after she blacked out. There's no evidence or video that has turned up showing that something happened while she was blacked out or unconscious. The whole thing is a giant YUCK.
Bottom line - kids watch porn and think it looks like fun - and this is what you get.

Trump is not on the ballot and a fair chunk of the GOP candidates are repulsive slugs like Collins. Hard to motivate casual Trump voters when you have to swallow voting for the lesser of evils that are ruining your locality and state with their antics.
The GOP traditionally never built a GOTV organization like the Dems did because their voters being of higher SES turnout out themselves. Dems did not. Higher SES has now become Democrats (primarily due to Higher Ed and hatred of the bourgeoise middle class). They turn out. Dems have now only to concentrate on minority turnout. Their problem is that working class minorities don't like what the college educated SES class of Dem voters want. Endless immigration hurts working class, so does crime, and inflation.
Now the party bases are flipped with white males and working class being the casual voters and these casual voters for the GOP have to be chased and brought to the polls--not via insipid and stupid ads, fliers, and other GOP mainstays, but knocking on doors, rides to the polls, even mail in balloting. They know GOPe types hate them.

Most of the long term and forever physical side effects accrue to the female not the male. The male cannot get pregnant with the lifetime effects to the body that entails, whether the pregnancy is fully carried or not. The male is less likely to pick up an STD from a female vs a female getting one from a male.
Also, the male always maintains a strength advantage in the situation, so his no is more personally enforceable than hers.
So, long term effects and gender advantages/disadvantages has always put the burden on the man to make sure the woman is willing vs the other direction in incidents of dual intoxication levels.
Is it fair - depends how you define fair. Although usually dual intoxication never ends up in charges or convictions for anyone, b/c reasonable doubt is too high a bar in almost all of these cases. As it should be. You don't make good law with bad cases, and judging impaired intent and consent by both parties is almost impossible without real time evidence.

Making this issue du jour a month before election should do nothing but negative things for black, male turnout. It probably won't do much for black, female turnout either.

You are using deductive reasoning. Politics, doesn't do that--instead it relies on rhetoric. Aristotle pretty much summarized the differences between dialectic (aiming an an objective truth), and rhetoric. Good rhetoric has a core of truth in it but is not the whole truth. Bad rhetoric can still be damn effective even when its underlying premises are illogical.
That is because it is aimed at the 80 percent or so of the public that votes by 'feel' or other emotions rather than facts.

IIRC that comes from a questionnaire that asks if the woman ever regretted a sexual encounter later including things like:
My longterm boyfriend started kissing me and wanted sex. I wanted to surf tiktok but I figured I'd give in and starfish him so he'd stop being horny. Yes, I'm still dating him.
Chad McAthlete and I went on a date. As we started making out he told me he loved me and we had hot animal sex. After that he didn't return my calls so obviously it was rape.

Most of the "my drink was spiked!" stories are cover for "I took a bunch of drugs and drank a bunch of alcohol."
No one ever spiked their drink.
But it's an easy excuse for increasingly unaccountable women to blame.

It's probably in the mix, but I'd wager also this girl has some severe mental/emotional issues.
Even women with high sex drives dont want to engage in behavior like gang bangs unless they are severely broken.
I can easily imagine that her parents raised her properly and are heartbroken about what's happening. She may just be mentally ill.

See, I disagree there - there are always roles for women - they just might not be the same roles as men have. And the most superior women who can make the men standards at select spots should probably get a shot at those spots - what we have done is dumb down standards, and that's where we fell. And when that woman makes those select spots, it should be the same way a man has to - no extra tutor or help or rewash...

A few years out of college, I visited a friend where she was doing grad school. Our big plan was "hang out," so she took me to babysit some single moms. (She was giving some new friends of hers time for a date night, as they were the live-in supervision for a kind of rehab halfway house or something.)
So while the couple went out to a movie, we were watching Coyote Ugly on home video with the residents, the first time I'd ever seen it. And out of nowhere, as the MC was dancing on a table, this plain, 'fluffy', and morose young woman living there says, "This is my favorite movie."
That will haunt me to my dying day. "This is my favorite movie." So bleak.

But the bottom line was, the low-level, front-line guys who enable most of the fraud--the ballot requests, the harvesting, GOTV, etc.--are:
1) not getting paid, with no prospect of getting paid; USAID and all the other sources are dried up.
2) see the stories of arrests and investigations and have calculated the risk/reward to not be worth it.
(and for what? So the Dems take the House? Trump still controls the DOJ.)
3) this is the feedstock for the real fraud--actual ballots returned to launder in with and conceal the fraudulent ballots.
Yet every poll is showing Presidential election level enthusiasm from blacks and the youth.

this is undoubtedly the case. she was 20! not 18. not her first rodeo
ALSO she claimed to have some "status" at the house or expect one. that is the "little sister" status and this house expressly said NO to that.
at Penn my bf's house had two little sisters. they didn't date brothers and they were not hos. they hung around and helped out with party cleanup and volunteer events (and were great).
the BROTHERS decide if you are a Little Sister and you don't get there by sleazing around. there WAS a girl like her. she gave half the house the clap.
that said, they did always let her come to their parties. that was the mistake this house's President made. that pissed the she-beast off

Possible, but the story went viral in a way that strongly suggests a coordinated op. This is basically just a local news story, and a rehash of an older story at that.
The timing of the lawsuit also seems suspicious to me. She could have filed this suit at any time over the last two years, but she does so a month before a major election, in a state where Hochul should be much further ahead than she is?

In one of the guy's room. And there supposedly are videos (or at least some kind of evidence) that was exchanged on snapchat. I assume it doesn't support criminal charges or we would have already seen it, as icky as it might be.
Also: this all took place over the course of 6 fucking hours. At least some of the guys were passing out, waking up, and then going at it again. The girl alleges she passed out too at one point, then woke up and had the last 3some at like 6 am. Just fucking nasty all around.

I don't believe that first part of this is true and I question the second. She initially did sex because she was into one of the guys. He suggested a threesome and she thought that sounded interesting although she said that she thought the guys would go gay plus her.
She did the drugs because they were offered but no one has suggested that requiring to put out to get the sex was ever even implied.
She says that she was trunk. She said that weeks after the fact. Other have said that she didn't seem drunk and claimed to be sober at the party. Who to believe?

"I was roofied" is the new equivalent of "I only had two beers."
Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh

Exactly, but I think a lot of women genuinely believe it.
Just recently, ,y wife has a friend, shes single in her 40s. There's a high end bar/restaurant near us that he's claimed shes been roofied there "multiple times. (yet she still goes there)
Not on dates, just there with friends. And I'm just like how do you think this works? A complete stranger somehow intercepts your drink, drugs you, and then hopes you pass out at the bar and become a zombie so you can be raped?
Or did you maybe just have one too many strong cocktails and a light dinner to fit in your outfit and you blacked out?
Which is more likely?
Women dont seem to understand "alcohol math", if you're a woman and have like 2-3 strong Martinis, that's like a guy drinking 8-10 beers.

I don't believe that first part of this is true and I question the second. She initially did sex because she was into one of the guys. He suggested a threesome and she thought that sounded interesting although she said that she thought the guys would go gay plus her.
She did the drugs because they were offered but no one has suggested that requiring to put out to get the sex was ever even implied.
She says that she was trunk. She said that weeks after the fact. Other have said that she didn't seem drunk and claimed to be sober at the party. Who to believe?

She did do quite a bit of drinking in the hours before she got to the frat, though.
Interestingly, we -- or at least I -- have seen little to nothing on how she ended up at the frat. She was out drinking with her sorority sisters before that. I'm assuming there were text messages exchanged. I don't think she just showed up.
In my experience, these kinds of "hook up" arrangements are always preceded by text messages. Well, where are they in this case?

I also didn't think roofies made you enthusiastic about a threesome, able to text your roommate, able to do lines off a dick, and able to get under covers plus walk to a different room once kucked out of the first.

It's not confusing at all. They had a ribald night rivaling X movie scenes. Later on some special interest convinced the young woman that shame is a misogynist artifact; that exposing her humiliating behavior to the world would be uplifting for womanhood.
Others, when unwholesome deeds were exposed to them, did not counsel the young woman for her betterment but cravenly chose to expose the events and her for misandry and their own fifteen minutes of fame.

Yep. Sometimes there is not a broader meaning to people doing stupid shit that is both immoral and quasi illegal (ketamine for example).
This is not a tragedy in a common sense because all of them (other than the guys that got randomly texted or the guy that stuck his head in the room and left when he saw what was going down), were complicit in the bad decisions made. No one was killed, no innocent kid was born/aborted from this unholy union, and it has more or less slimed those involved and likely the institutions involved in the whole mess--Cornell, the sorority, and the frat involved.
I am always bemused in these instances where suddenly we go into hysterics over things that have existed since the dawn of time, in moral times, and in immoral times. Sex, youth, and intoxication equalling bad decisions have been around since we were around campfires in caves.

I’d get felt up walking to classes, boys would cat call and say gross things. Lots of drunk behavior by both guys and girls. We laughed it off.
We learned as young ladies to deal with it. If a slap and a stern “knock it off “” didn’t work, we enlisted our brothers or good “guy” friends to explain that if the unwanted behavior continued, there would be consequences.
Young women are not strong and powerful today. They are all victims and refuse responsibility for their choices and actions.

The Morning Rant: The United States Senate: Theater Of The Absurd
Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley opened an investigation into Flock cameras and held a hearing on the mass surveillance technologies. None of the technology CEOs, including Langley, appeared for the hearing. Hawley did not respond to the DCNF's question about whether he was frustrated with leadership's lack of response to Flock cameras.
He did not respond because he has no interest in doing anything substantive, because he is a hack, whose motivation is pecuniary, not legislative. His popular reputation as a fierce questioner at hearings is true, but that ferocity does not extend to anything else! He is the Republican equivalent of Chuck Schumer, but without the clout! I wonder whether his reticence about Flock is connected to their large lobbying budget? Flock tracks your license plate. We tracked the $2M it spent on lobbying.
The company spent nearly $1.3 million between January 2025 and July 2026 on federal lobbying and at least another $1 million in statehouses across the U.S., according to OpenSecrets’ federal lobbying data and an analysis of lobbying disclosures across all 50 states. Flock has hired lobbyists in dozens of states – often former government employees passing through the political “revolving door” – including in places where weak disclosure laws mean spending totals are not publicly reported.
This is why Flock seems to be a juggernaut, barrelling down the road, destroying what is left of our civil liberties. Their lobbying efforts are bearing fruit...even with Republicans who pay lip service to the Constitution and the Bill Of Rights. I wonder if Senator Hawley recalls the text of the 4th Amendment? You know...something about protection against searches?
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
It's adorably anachronistic in this world of total surveillance, but it is an anachronism that needs to return to the forefront of our lives. Our politicians are of course venal and grifting in the extreme, but the plain text of our governing document needs to be thrust in their faces...they need to be reminded of it when they scurry back into their offices and cash those lobbyist checks. So forgive me if I am wholeheartedly in support of anyone who feels like taking the law into their own hands and cutting down those Flock cameras, and short-circuiting the burgeoning police/surveillance state that is being created around us!

Probably more than that. High quality (but not exceptional) off-the-rack are $2k or more.
The best off-the-rack are $5k-10k. I'll bet almost all Senators are at least in this range. Why not? It ain't their money.

That should be gutted by the courts...we need to be able to hold government employees personally liable for their violations of our rights.
Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo
An argument I use specifically for police:
End qualified immunity. Completely.
Force cops to have to INDIVIDUALLY carry liability insurance. Same as other professionals.
Too many claims and the insurance company will drop them. No insurance, no work. No ability to change departments.
Most cops go through their entire careers without being sued for civil rights violations.
Those that are legitimately sued?
There's no reason the city/citizens should have to pay for it.
And maybe, just maybe, it'll force cities and counties to hire qualified individuals.

Flocks are always positioned in groups allowing one to observe the other. There is no way to disable one Flock without being observed by one or more others. The cameras usually flock together in groups of four or more.

So the way the system should work is that if people want to get rid of flock cameras (or any similiar issue) they'd first vote in the primaries against supporters and then potentially in the general election as well

Senator Bernie Sanders, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Senator Jeff Merkley introduced the Ban Flock Act to completely stop federal agencies from using ALPRs.
Concurrently, Senator Josh Hawley announced the Stop Flock Abuse Act to enforce a 10-day maximum data deletion law and ban facial recognition on the devices.
Due to this pressure, Flock CEO Garrett Langley was forced to alter course. Flock now implements strict search auditing and mandates a default data retention drop from 30 days down to just 7 days.
So it seems to me the socialists - not Hawley - can claim, "First!" for at least a partial win against Flock cameras before mid-term elections.

Yep. Judges and prosecutors should not have immunity personally from illegal searches and seizures carried out on their orders. One of the problems with the 4th Amendment is that the remedy of illegal searches is suppression of evidence. That helps the guilty but the innocent get no such relief. They get violated and cannot recoup what they have lost (privacy, information, etc.).
I would also create a separate court of claims for illegal searches and seizures from the ordinary criminal justice system. Judges cannot police themselves obviously so you have to set up a different system where they cannot control it. One where the prosecutors and the judges approving and stamping these orders have to face the music if they do something illegal.
Our current representative system has set up bad incentives on purpose that protect wicked prosecutors, judges, and law enforcement. They have no skin in the game and face little if no consequence for illegal actions while ordinary citizens do.
It is time to splinter and remove the powers of the 3rd branch to be tyrannical and support others in their tyranny. Easiest way is to divide their power.

Our representatives are a mirror (as is our entertainment, education, etc.) of our current society. And in such a fallen world, you have to realign incentives away from what is current. Donors with money have essentially bought our Congress critters and out of state donors in particular. E.g. someone like John Ossoff has raised 80-90 percent of his money from out of state for his senate run. That means the home folks have little or no hold over him and elections are not enough--assholes can do a lot of damage in a six year term (Tillis is an example).
And this system and those political donors offer an irresistible way to get politicians and their families generational wealth if they direct some of the taxpayer money to whatever legislation that the interest groups want.

This is why I'm not 100% against Flock. We literally let millions of undocumented a-holes and criminals into our country with no way to track them, We have millions of muslims with no way to establish meeting patterns to might show us who is plotting against the US. We have leftist groups committed to violence that are being organized by Chinese, Russians and the WEF among others. We have easily approached military bases all around the country.
If if if they were or are being used properly, I'm not really against their use. We know they've been abused, so if legal to do, those folks should be punished.
If I had to guess, all it's going to take is another mass casualty attack against us or massive jihad riot and Flock cameras will be everywhere forever.
I'd like us to set the rules and circumstances for their specific use, instead of pretending that spying on pre-schoolers is the same as spying on radical mosques for "fairness".

Flocks are being used to track illegals. Observe where they are posted; they are posted at places where illegals are known to gather, ie Home Depot and Lowes parking lots and on the streets, through intersections they must travel to arrive at said destination. They are placed at other points of travel in the same manner for the same reason, entrapment of illegals.

Mail in voting is down 18% from 2022.
This is a pattern we've seen in OH, VA, GA, and NC. A mix of states with different levels of important races.
Blue districts tend to be further down than red districts.
The post-hoc explanation is that Democrats decided, en masse, to forgo mail in voting this year in favor of in person early voting. Why? Because of the news items from a a few weeks ago where Trump destroyed the USPS or something.
Well, OH started in person early voting today.
Compare the crowd from this morning:

Welp, we know a percentage of mail in ballots are fraud--it is the easiest way to game the system. And USPS personnel were involved in the scam as were the ballot harvesters from vacant lots and USPS dead letter offices when delivered to places like Wal Mart.
It is possible that this decline does not represent real people at all but simply reduced fraud due to fear of getting caught. I think this is why that judge issued the decision in S. Florida in time for the election. Dems want illegals to vote and for all their cheat mechanism to feel safe.
And I suspect if you go through all these federal judges' communications and meetings, you will find that Dem judges issuing these ruling have illegal ex parte backchannel conversations with people like Marc Elias as to what and how to rule plus when.
Same with that recently revealed and illegal collusion of Minnesota federal district court judges on immigration-all but one were participating in a scheme where they shared information among themselves ex parte as to how to rule on specific cases rather than ruling on the evidence presented in court.

"If you're not doing anything illegal, why should you care?"
Be prepared for my response: “beside the point.”
More to the point:
The local SO has my name because I have an LTC
TX DPS knows all about me because they issue the LTC
The Feds know all about me because of clearances and I still have a commission
So fucking what? Flock still has no business butting me under surveillance.

This is why I'm not 100% against Flock. We literally let millions of undocumented a-holes and criminals into our country with no way to track them, We have millions of muslims with no way to establish meeting patterns to might show us who is plotting against the US. We have leftist groups committed to violence that are being organized by Chinese, Russians and the WEF among others. We have easily approached military bases all around the country.
Those areas were not under surveillance by cameras or otherwise before Flock came along?

People with phones complaining about tracking?
Leftists are just as smart and reasonable as anyone, but they let their emotions overwhelm them on specific topics. Flock is doing that to rightists. The problem is that it distracts from the real problems. If privacy in public is really important, why no complaints about phones...Ring cameras...traffic cameras...drivers licenses...

The way people normally sit will make anyone who doesn't have a completely flat stomach look like they've got a bit of a paunch.
However the interesting part is he made her stomach look a bit bigger then that.
So was she really carrying around a few extra pounds (unusual for that era) or was it artistic license?

As per the bit I found above Henri said she was Roman.
Now my understanding was women shaving pits and legs became a thing in the flapper era but thanks to CBD I've now seen plenty of art from the era before that which suggests it wasn't uncommon at least for things like art before that.

Henri Lehmann
Pretty model, looks pregnant or had given birth not long before.
A rather odd artist: Henri Lehmann was a German-born French historical painter and portraitist, best known for his vivid, dreamlike paintings of lush tropical jungles and exotic animals, despite having never left France.
And this from The Met:
In a letter to his mistress, Lehmann described the woman depicted here as one of the "four most beautiful girls that you could have as a model in Rome." The sensual curve of the figure’s back is in line with odalisques by Lehmann’s revered master, J. A. D. Ingres. This ravishing study was made in preparation for a painting of bathers at a river; inspired by Victor Hugo’s poem "Bièvre," it was exhibited at the Salon of 1842 as Femmes près de l’eau. Acquired by the Belgian royal family, the Salon painting was destroyed in a fire in the 1890s.
Wouldn't hang today's selection, but I learned about another artist. Thanks.

Consider Nidal Hassan (spit!). Born in the U..S. to naturalized Palestinian parents, took 3 years to get an Associates degree, 3 more years for his Bachelors. Went to USUHS (Uniformed Services University for the Health Sciences) the military's medical school, where it took him six years ('97-'03) to finish a 4-year curriculum. Not a high achiever. Trained in Psychiatry and became more and more radicalized while assigned to counsel American fighting men returning from deployments in the Gulf and Afghanistan. Killed 13 American soldiers at Ft. Hood in '09.
That's what multiculturalism and repeated second chances and remedial training of incompetents gets you. At the end of the day he was Muslim first and always, hated America and her soldiers.
Why was he still in the Army?

The Morning Report — 10/6 /26
“Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has recommended — and President Donald J. Trump has approved — death by U.S. Army firing squad for convicted terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan, the jihadist who opened fire on unarmed American soldiers at Fort Hood in 2009,” Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell wrote on X. Hasan killed 12 US service members, one civilian and wounded 32 others during his November 2009 rampage at the Texas Army base. Parnell noted the Army-officer-turned-terrorist was “shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ during the attack.” “The Secretary of the Army will set the time and place of the execution,” the Pentagon spokesman added. “Judgement day for Hasan has finally come.” Hasan, who was sentenced to death by a military court in 2013, would be the first service member executed by the armed forces since 1961. . . Hasan, a former Army major and psychiatrist, opened fire on troops who were standing in line to receive immunizations at Fort Hood. The attack ended when Hasan was shot in the back and left paralyzed by a responding police officer.He should've been summarily executed within moments of being neutralized. considering Islam and the fact that our Commander-in-Chief at the time was for all intents and purposes an ideological fellow traveler of Hasan and the prevailing insane political winds in our nation since this incident and in reality blowing from Ground Zero since 9/11 and from College Campuses since the Vietnam War, were it not for President Trump and Secretary of War Hegseth and the patriots still in uniform, Hasan would likely have been spared and breathing our air for years to come. While we're on the subject of treason and traitors in our midst . . .
Iran’s endgame became obvious when its IRGC terror bosses released a letter to American voters praising “the No Kings rallies that swept across the U.S. last year”, blasting President Trump and urging Americans to vote to “change the makeup of the government” to end the war. The old joke about the Russians was that their military strategy was to get invaded and wait for winter. The Islamic terrorist strategy is to get invaded and wait for leftists to win elections. Iran hasn’t just been waiting. In 2020, Iranian hackers tried to hack into election databases and sent out false flag emails to voters in Florida. In 2024, they stole J.D. Vance’s voter file and peddled it to media outlets. Iranian fake news sites bashed Republicans and promoted the Kamala campaign. That’s not even counting active measures like a Trump assassination plot. Interfering with traffic in the Strait of Hormuz was never going to bring the American economy to its knees, the way that our economic pressure campaign on Iran crushed its economy, and the terrorist regime wouldn’t have bothered if it expected the Democrats to hold the line. The letter to voters, however, reveals that the Iranian strategy is to wait for the Democrats to bail them out. . . Iran Plans to Win the War by Helping Democrats Win Is it time for a crackdown on the treason party?The Treason Party is exactly who and what the Democrats are, regardless of whether so-called Moderates or the full-on freakshow of DSA members are running things. The crackdown, that is the utter dismantling, dissolution and destruction of the Democrat Party should have happened the moment they formed the KKK and attempted to and indeed thwart reconstruction, resulting with their alignment with every movement foreign and domestic that was anathema to America as founded. And here we are 160 years later with one of our two major political parties hell bent for leather to seize absolute power in the name of transforming America into a hells cape it was never meant to be, instead of the shining beacon of civilizational progress it was founded as. Hence the Nidal Hasans on top of the Squeaky Frommes Jane Fondas, Bernie Sanders and Planned Parenthoods that we must deal with. Lest they "deal" with us first! As the evil fishy bastards have been!
Five years ago today, then-Attorney General Merrick Garland released his memorandum laying out what his corrupt Department of Justice could do to assist in investigating and prosecuting the parents accused of being “domestic terrorists” for speaking out against far-left initiatives and draconian Covid policies at school board meetings. The Democrat AG’s memo followed a National School Boards Association (NSBA) letter begging President Joe Biden and his politically-driven Department of Justice to recognize the “immediate threat” these parents posed to America’s public schools and their leaders. The letter urged Biden to treat the parents’ confrontational behavior like it was “equivalent to a form of domestic terrorism.” We know that the NSBA, after a wave of criticism from affiliates, was forced to apologize for the letter from School Boards Association President Viola Garcia and interim CEO Chip Slaven. The association acknowledged “there was no justification for some of the language included in the letter” and that the executive office had not consulted with state affiliates.When Andrew Breitbart of blessed memory declared "Fuck You, WAR!" The above was yet to happen but did he realize where we were headed for before he drew his last breath? Death to the Left and Islam. It really is us or them. I fervently pray that the Good Lord in Heaven open the eyes, hearts and minds of our fellow citizens (in name only) to see the evil that they praise and engage in and repent... As for all of you good people, stay strong and I bid you all tohave a good day.

I have a mild addiction to Low IQ baseball compilations. One thing I've noticed is that consistently good teams don't do dumb things. They don't make bad throws, they don't miss the cutoff man, they don't forget how many outs there are, they don't make bad base running decisions.
The Yankees used to (I stress that) be one of those teams. But now to watch them play, you'd think they were the Pittsburgh Pirates. They consistently either fumble the ball fielding or run themselves right out of an inning. It's like they think if they hit enough home runs, they don't have to play well otherwise.

Culturally, a firing squad is for a honorable execution.
Major Hasan deserves hanging, with is an execution for dis-honorable members of the military.
But I expect there are no MOS for hanging, while the Army does emphasize shooting.

The GI Bill was nice, but in my life, the biggest veteran's benefit was the VA Home Loan. No money down, just make the payments. It removed the biggest hurdle to home ownership. I didn't have a giant pile of cash, but I did have the means to make the mortgage on a decent house in a relatively cheaper area to raise my kids in.

Mussolini had a thing for buxom red-heads...probably how he lost his soul. I had a chem prof at a local college that talked about his time overseas, spending time in a specific African country in the 1950's, and noticing all the buxom red-heads living there...turned out they had been some of Mussolini's mistresses.
Same Chem prof that taught us how to distill liquor, make fertilizer bombs (used in fields back in the day to blow tree trunks), and how to counteract cyanide poisoning (he used it on his Chihuahua that ate too many apple seeds). He also told us that C4 was flammable and made an okay fire, just don't stomp out that fire (foot goes off in the boom)...

Nope.
Nicolae Ceausescu and his wife (the Romanian DOCTOR Jill) were airlifted out of Bucharest in a rescue by the Army that turned into an impromptu coup d'etat.
They hauled their rotten asses into a makeshift "courthouse" in a rural school, and held a trial lasting less than a hour. The befuddled Nicolae and his more strident wife made a spirited and legally sound defense of their actions.
They said "check the Constitution, dummies, it's all legal because we did it."
This was for nought - they were unceremoniously dragged out to the playground and executed by firing squad. "Recess is over, bitches. No more fun and games."

My last post at my former employer was with an institute that was funded by the Murphy Foundation, which is funded by Murphy Oil. I got to meet Mrs. Murphy, the owner, a number of times. She was always gracious and asked us to call her by her first name.
If I'm going to pay cash for gas, since my lone gas credit card now has so few stations locally, I might as well go to Murphy if they are within a few cents of the local convenience stores.
E0 is available at a few stations here, but it runs close to a dollar more per gallon than does E10. My increase in mileage won't pay for that.

There are regional tank farms where contractors pull tanker trailers to load any of the various grades from a common resource. At this point all gasoline and diesel is identical. Nuanced into this is the ability to specify blends for specific octane ratings depending on the customer.
Also depending on the customer, the tankers go to separate additive tanks to load detergents or other components that are distinctives of a particular brand.
So a contractor for Sams, Murphy or Costco will load at the same tank. Sams and Murphy drivers will then continue to their customers. Costco delivery guy then adds the detergents into the fuel to achieve "Top Fuel" certification which is far better for direct injection cars than the cheaper fuels without it.
Costco is probably the best bang for the buck fuel in the US.

I'm so old I remember when, if you used the oil company's own credit card, you got a nickel off per gallon (when gas was $1.40 or so). Now, I get .10 off if I use Exxon's card . . . but Exxon stations are getting thin on the ground here.
Is Sam's also supplied by Murphy Oil like Walmart?
Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius
Sam's has no way to accept cash. Credit/debit only. But if you use a Sam's credit card, you get points back. I don't think you get any cash off.
I don't know about Murphy Oil, but I pass by a huge terminal every morning and there are Pilot tankers among others that fill up there.

Several co-workers watched it often, too. Next day we'd laugh together about about the funniest and most cringe-worthy moments. We'd also laugh about how anyone could fall for the pleas for money and go to the Bakker's Heritage USA theme park in South Carolina. Jim endlessly pimped Heritage USA. It must have been a gold mine for the Bakkers. We figured it was lame and expensive.

On Fox News Sunday, Shannon Bream asked whether the monitors would be armed federal agents. Blanche’s answer: “Completely false. They’re going to be election monitors as they are every single time.”
He said DOJ has monitored elections since the 1960s, that the Trump administration is doing what “every single administration has done,” and that the monitors “are not going to Republican states.

I think the missing piece of the puzzle was provided yesterday (at least to me) in that she was disinvited to the frat's halloween party. She was apparently angry about that. Yes, she wanted to go to the party of the frat who supposed gang-raped her.
It was at that point her texts to the boys -- yes, she was busy texting her supposed rapists -- get hostile, and a week later she went to the cops. Before that, she was still fishing for invites to the frat.
I think the entire thing is just old-school "hell hath no fury" shit. She was bitter and angry and wanted revenge.

They whined very cuntily about this for decades until some Leftist judge in Britain negotiated for exhumation and independent autopsy by a British third-party, which affirmed the suicide story, and finally shut their lying Commie mouths about it.

In my defense, I only read the article once or twice before going back to the spank photos, and mainly because it had a description of Allende's brains blasted on the palace wall.

I know, everything is not about PA. Correct. But please look at your state regarding SNAP benefits, Medicaid, etc. too.
>Philadelphia Daily News - Inquirer, "More SNAP recipients continue to lose benefits"
In part, "State agencies are already struggling to keep up with recent changes to SNAP, Libby said. In addition, they're preparing for another rule change that will go into effect next year - requiring states to keep a low "error rate" or take on more of the costs of the food assistance itself.
So on one hand, state case workers are overloaded, and on the other, SNAP recipients are struggling to navigate a lot more documentation requirements."
Who is losing their benefits?
"With a few exceptions, non-citizens have lost their access to SNAP benefits, Libbey said. That includes refugees, asylum seekers, victims of human trafficking, and those awaiting a permanent status. Green-card holders and a few other groups remain eligible."
(Note: Remember, the Bidenites "extended" so many benefits, and changed definitions of who are the deserving, too.)
Posted by: L - No nic... at October 06, 2026 09:47 AM (NFX2v)
Almost two million people in Pennsylvania were on SNAP last summer, when the federal changes were signed into law, Libbey said. Since then, 234,000 people - 12% - have fallen off the rolls.
About 106,000 lost SNAP benefits because of work requirements, including 36,000 in Philadelphia."
How much do SNAP recipients get?
"The amount of benefits has not changed because of federal rules, and has increased slightly because of cost of living adjustments, federal data shows." 👈🏻
So, the Trump administration hasn't been monsters but rather demand both those distributing and receiving SNAP benefits follow the rules and be accurate and honest. (BTW - A single per person could receive as much as $306 monthly; a family of four $1,023.)
A following headline: 'PA Democrats have mostly positive view of socialism'
Lots about Philadelphia's silver spoon baby, Chris Rabb, a democratic socialist likely on the way to Congress; some about the Philly mayor who's not the brightest bulb but sees the DSA over her shoulder for the next election.
Oh, and portraying Shapiro as a moderate. 🤣
Posted by: L - No nic... at October 06, 2026 09:47 AM (NFX2v)
Both a big Bernie's boy and homegrown, loudmouthed thug with the usual DSA platform, imo.
Lastly, "New Medicaid rules could disqualify thousands in Philly" (Not to mention hundreds of thousands in the state.)
Here we go again: "... Several groups of legal immigrants, including people who were granted asylum and those who are temporary humanitarian parolees, can no longer be covered by Medicaid. Legal permanent residents, including green-card holders, will maintain coverage."
And, "....people who are covered by Medicaid under expansion and previously had to renew annually will now need to do so every six months."
The Trump administration, guarding the nation's and our pocketbooks.
But, yes, let's keep leaning Left in PA as the taxes in all of the state - but especially in the areas that are not wealthy - consistently climb along with state payrolls.

He is and always was a 'creation,' not someone who rose through his own merits.

The occultation of Jupiter by the Moon is coming up in roughly 10 minutes. Timing will vary somewhat, but because of the angle the US is at rotating into the moving shadow, the timing will be fairly consistent.
Here it will start at 4:14AM.

Here's an In-the-sky.org page that shows the map.
https://t.ly/L96u6
Those flat path projections can be sort of confusing, but scroll down and see the animation of the shadow path across the rotating globe. That projection makes it much easier to see how it works.
You'll see the US just rotating into the moving red shadow circle, which is the area where Jupiter appears to be behind the Moon. That moves from west to east across the earth as it rotates underneath. And finally that shadow just moves off the earth's surface.

He just mentioned the Moon is so low on the horizon, that's why the "seeing" is so poor for them. Note all the shimmering. That's the thick atmosphere it's having to pass through. If it were just a little bit higher, it would be a much nicer image.

In a video message following the arrest, Brett Leatherman, assistant director of the FBI's Cyber Division, had some advice for the “remaining members” of the data theft and extortion gang.
“Arrests have a way of changing who is willing to talk, and seized infrastructure has a way of showing us who's left,” Leatherman said last week.
“The longer you stay in this, the more we learn about you. You know how to find us, and we know how to find you. I suggest you reach out first while the choice is still yours.”

I have inherited several of those bags from my mom.
I used them some but several are all ripped up and torn because the people who load them at the store aren't the most careful with them and will stuff it full and rip it up around the zipper trying to get it to close. So now I just let them use the store bags. My local Food Lion still uses paper bags, so that's a plus (until they rip open while carrying them inside).
They are handy if you have refrigerated/frozen stuff as they are slightly insulated.

Out of about ten that Mom had four or five are all ripped up with the blanket material ripped loose and the areas around the zippers all ripped up.

An occultation and a close junction of the Moon and another object like this starkly shows how fast the Moon moves in its orbit relative to the background sky. And note it moves west to east while the earth rotates underneath. Look every 15 minutes or so, and you'll note the separation changes noticeably.

Pretty much, yes, in the sense that the "heliocentric model" as those lunatics like to call it, is the only thing that predicts exactly what you see, where you see it, and what time you see it down to a fraction of a second.
What they would need is a model of whatever flat plane they have, and the sky above it that predicts what is seen and what will be seen for everybody anywhere on earth and at any time. And they don't, of course.

There is a very simple observation that proves the earth has curvature. The horizon over the ocean or over a very topographically flat area like the salt lake flats.
The fact that you see a sharp horizon, a clear boundary between water and sky or land and sky shows the surface is curving away from you.
On a infinitely large flat plane, or something big enough to approximate it, the horizon would always remain at eye level and appear fuzzy, not sharp.
This is for the same reason that the boundary between a hill and the sky is so sharp, as you see when driving going up and down hill. The surface is blocked as the earth curves away. Same as the front of the hill blocks the rest of the ground behind it.

I read something about this from a real optics expert on just when can you perceive the curvature of the horizon. At 30,000 ft, airliner altitude, you can technically see it, but it's very small and subtle.
Optical distortions are on the same order, and it's tricky. Videos taken from say, U-2s at high altitude appear to show it clearly, but the distortion of the canopy and all that do distort it.

Precision survey equipment, like some of the modern theodolites can show the horizon, even at eye level standing on the ground is below the geometric horizon, "level" relative to your local tangent plane. Of course, local topography will easily get in the way.
That "dip angle" at 6' above the ground will be around 1 arc minute or so. It's there, just very small.

In navigation, using a sextant, that dip angle is very important to correct for when trying to shoot the altitude angle of a star above the horizon. You want the angle relative to the true tangent plane horizon, not the visual apparent horizon.

What I find interesting, and unfathomable, is how they can look in the sky and see that everything they're looking at is a sphere, from the burning Sun to the Moon, to the stars and planets, all spheres.
But they have determined that it's impossible for the Earth to be a sphere because they can't look out their window and see the curvature for themselves, so therefore, obviously, it's all a big conspiracy to say the earth is round.

Another thing they're doing of late, and this do to a truly awful Flerfer named Nathan Oakley, is to parrot the "earth is measured flat". Now at first, I thought that just meant that the over a small local area, the curvature is insignificant. Every curved manifold is "locally flat" over a sufficiently small region compared to the curvature.
No, they don't mean that. They mean that any linear measure of "length" must be a straight line, and any measurement of an angle must be relative to a straight line or plane.
This apparently means something like the circumference of a circle "doesn't exist".

Well of course they are. And do they most always come up with a way to hand wave it away when it's pointed out why they are wrong? Yes, that too.
Just like those "97% of the scientists, uh, that we talk to" (remember barkey on climate change) were, and did, when they were so excited about the JWST showing us galaxies in their earliest stages of formation.
And then July of 1922, those first images came back.

Brutal exchange: Tucker Carlson incorrectly tells Jacob Rees-Mogg that Russia has "a much larger economy" than Britain.
It doesn't: by GDP, Britain's is about $4.0 trillion and Russia's about $2.5 trillion.
Corrected, Carlson retreats to "GDP is not the only measure," then to Russia's "inherent wealth."
Rees-Mogg: "Inherent wealth isn't very useful, is it? There are lots of African countries that have huge resources that have never been able to use them."
Carlson: "It depends what your timeline is."
Rees-Mogg: "Well, if you go for hundreds of years, they haven't used them. Russia has consistently been a poor country in spite of its resources."

Over the size of typical buildings that deviation from parallel is so small it's in the margin of error of typical construction to get "straight lines".
But over sufficient distances, like the span of a long bridge, that deviation becomes important. This is geodetic surveying vs plane surveying. Modern equipment with GPS and laser ranging and all that can do this automatically, making full geodetic surveying very easy over even small distances.

When they built LIGO, the gravitational wave interferometer, they needed to make the arms truly straight, and so had to cancel out the curvature when constructing it to make those arms truly lie on a straight line relative to 3D space.
The arms are about 2.5 miles long. The drop due to curvature over that is a little over 3'. They had to make it straight to incredible precision.
Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at October 06, 2026 06:59 AM (w6EFb)
When they built the arms, rather than perching a tangent plane on top of the earth in the middle, they placed it along chords connecting the end points. Thus the curvature makes a "hump in the middle" relative to the arms, rather than a dip at the ends.

It is known from local manuscripts and travellers' accounts that Mansa Musa's wealth came principally from the Mali Empire's control and taxing of the trade in salt from northern regions and especially from gold panned and mined in Bambuk and Bure to the south. Over a very long period Mali had amassed a large reserve of gold. Mali is also believed to have been involved in the trade in many goods such as ivory, slaves, spices, silks, and ceramics.
A Muslim merchant empire trading salt and mining gold is fine for what it is, but it's not a large, modern, economy with the GDP to prove it.
It's more comparable to modern Russia, which is Rees-Mogg's entire point to Tucker.

LIGO is limited in the wavelength range of gravitational waves it can detect. The very low, sub 1Hz range should contain some very interesting cosmological information.
Enter LISA. This will use three satellites in heliocentric orbit, maintaining a perfect equilateral triangle. This will be able to get in the long wavelength range. The lengths of each side will be 2.5 million km long.
Launch will likely be somewhere around 2035 or so.

Much of “Carnival of Souls” was filmed inside an abandoned SaltAir, not long before it was torn down. Adds an extra layer of creepiness to an already disturbing movie.

Her fellow "migrants" gang-raped her repeatedly on the voyage, and threw her two-year-old son overboard because would not stop crying.
One reason (among many) that you don't see many female "migrants": they know how their men can be guaranteed to behave.

Apple Jacks were my favorite, but those were a special treat. My dad insisted on getting Grape Nuts because they were always on sale. I will note that he refused to eat them because of his dentures, but insisted they were the perfect breakfast food for growing children. I hated that stuff with a passion.

Apple Jacks: no apples
They'd never get away with those names today.
Also: what genius thought up naming a kid's cereal after a low-rent technique for producing hooch that's about one step above "prison wine"?
So-callled "jacking" (works with any fermented product, not just apple juice) consists of putting the containers of beer or wine outside on a cold day. The water will freeze long before the alcohol, so if you just fish out the ice once in a while you wind up with something that's pretty high-proof.
Sounds good, except that the methanol, fusel oils, etc. are also concentrated by the freezing process, leading to some memorably hangovers.
Distillation, by comparison, can most of the non-ethanol volatiles because they have different boiling points. Watching your still temperature lets you get rid of them -- throw away everything that comes out below the boiling point of ethanol, throw away anything that remains in the pot after the temperature exceeds the boiling point of ethanol.

Working hypothesis: this woman's "man" (assuming he can be dignified by that term) died somewhere on the voyage, whether by natural causes or in a confrontation with his fellow "migrants".
Whereupon his woman became a public utility, and his child became of no value whatsoever, as he was not the child of any of the remaining "men".
Yep. Animal behavior. Lions do that... the first thing a male does when he kills the previous alpha and takes over his harem is kill all the cubs.
Not only does this remove babies that don't carrry his genes, killing a lioness's cub will cause her to go into heat right away.
But those are lions... savage predators with a murderous instinct for hunting and killing.

This was society before Christianity in the West (Judaism preceded it but extremely few in biblical times were Jewish). Brutal, tribal, and nasty.
If Christianity fails to protect its borders from Islam and human monsters that see those of us in the West as prey, then the really bad old days will return with a vengeance.

The pressure inside a tank "wants" to blow the whole thing into a sphere, the natural shape (think soap bubbles). You can work this out with calculus (or I could at one time...I'd have to bone up a lot to do it today).
Some extremely high pressure tanks are made as full spheres, but normally a cylinder with rounded ends is a good compromise between strength and fabrication cost.

That was the early 70’s, and at that time no one would ever ask “where in Payson?” iirc, in those days you could easily see from one end of town to another.

They should put his wheelchair on a little track where it would go back and forth while they shoot and a bell would ding and a little score pop up every time they get a hit. And maybe change direction too with each hit.
Each member of the squad gets 3 shots, one at a time. Highest score wins!

One of the cats here, Purry Mason, has several deviously annoying ways to get my attention. Right now, he's in jump on my lap, briefly bounding across. He bounces across, then lands back on the floor, then does it again in the other direction. He then turns and looks at me. If I don't make much response, he does it again.

Muslim turnout in 2024 was about 80% of registered Muslim voters.
Christian turnout was about 56% of voting-age Christian adults.
The gap is not Muslims outvoting Christians. It is millions of Christians who could vote and do not.

Something about the total freedom to be and do whatever you want to be or do. The complete lack of personal judgment, the lack of rules, the just plain ease of everything, appeals.
We probably have the most ex-military folks per capita of anywhere. Likewise, the number of folks who move here and never want to move back.
It is very difficult to describe, but once you know it, you know.
I was born and raised. I never could be comfortable in the Lower 48, with all the rules and assumptions. I tried, mightily, but it never felt right.
Freedom does that to you.

I just had a podcast talking with a guy named David Eagleman, talking about all the crazy things your brain does to perceive reality. At the basic level, "sight" and "sound" are mostly your brain "painting an internal picture" of objective physical inputs, light and sound. You and I see some "color" we call "red". Do we actually see the same thing? No way to prove that one way or the other.
And from there, he's done all sorts of experiments that expose this is somewhat disconcerting ways.
He found a way to mess with people's time perception of the order of events. Your brain get messed up and think an effect preceded a cause.
And now he thinks that schizophrenia may be a disorder where that is permanently messed up. That is, "hearing voices" is a person's own internal "dialogue" but the time-order perception is reversed....
As crazy as that sounds, he's getting good evidence that may indeed be the case.

I always wondered about internal perception vs. objective reality. I suppose many people have different ideas of what "red" is and what "green" might be. That is as true of most concepts as anything.
I tend to be attuned to physical space, rather than imaginary or even philosophical understanding of things. Does that mean I perceive differently? Probably.
It is something that is nearly impossibly to quantify.

One reason (among many) that you don't see many female "migrants": they know how their men can be guaranteed to behave.
Yes, but were the men military age? If so, that is bad. If not, no problem.

I read something like that a couple decades ago.
The folks who think the TV can read their mind because they were just thinking about having a Coke, and then a Coke commercial came on. Happens because reality is the other way around but they perceive it backwards. Bad brain timing.
And they could get neurotypical people to do the same thing. Simple mouse-driven flight sim. With programmable delay on the controls. Get people to "playtest" the game as part of the study.
Start normal, slow down the mouse reaction. "Playtesters" said the game started to lag.
Start slow, speed up the reaction. "Playtesters" said "OMG it read my mind. The plane moved before I moved the mouse."

While you can't prove this 100%, you can hypothesize that since our brains are all basically the same "machine" as it were, then we probably everybody probably sees colors the same. And they're getting close to confirming that.
Using functional MRI, they map out the brain activity of people who are perceiving a color. And they get complex with it, a myriad of different hues and and all that. AI is very good a pattern recognition. So you turn AI loose on that data based on a large sample of subjects.
Now, you bring in a sample of people who haven't been measured, and turn on the MRI and have them look at colors. AI, then looks at that pattern and predicts what color/shade/hue the new subjects are perceiving.
Guess what, that predicts precisely what color/shade/hue variation the person is perceiving.
So when you and I see "red", our brain circuits are firing in the exact same pattern.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has recommended — and President Donald J. Trump has approved — death by U.S. Army firing squad for convicted terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan, the jihadist who opened fire on unarmed American soldiers at Fort Hood in 2009. He killed 13 people and wounded 32 others while shouting “Allahu Akbar” during the attack.
The Secretary of the Army will set the time and place of the execution. Judgement day for Hasan has finally come.

It's one thing when your campaign staff can spin out lies and misinformation in campaign ads.
It's very different when your opponent has a chance to challenge you directly on stage in front of a live audience.
They can't defend the indefensible, no matter how hard they try.

Leftists can't win a fair race outside of deep blue areas. We all know this. New sheriff in DC and her name is Harmeet. I've got a lot of faith in her and her team to watch what's happening.
He's been running away from his record the entire race. He's a fake tough guy midget and a radical islamist. If Rogers can turn out the vote he'll win. It's up to Michigan voters to make the enormous sacrifice of standing in line for a few minutes and flush this turd. Hopefully, they will.

Holy Cow! All of those are fair game (swidt?) round these parts in season. No limit on coyotes either year round. The bears around here seem to be unnaturally friendly - they'll walk up and down our street, even with cubs and the only thing they go after are bird feeders. They'll look at you but that's about it. Hogs we can take anytime in any amount.
If you are over 29, a lifetime hunting/fishing license is $49. It covers hunting, fishing, and trapping, deer, bear and trout stamp and never expires. If you can't afford the lifetime pass and are short of funds - $4 per year. No shit.

This week the forecast is for 80 degree days. I think we might not have a real winter again. It just ain't right.

ICE Nabs Another 15 "Worst of the Worst" Over the Weekend
Deb Heine for American Greatness:Among the arrests this weekend, provided exclusively to American Greatness, are criminal illegals convicted for the heinous crimes of murder, rape of a child, criminal sexual assault/force, aggravated assault, and possession of a controlled substance for sale. ... "While Americans enjoyed their weekend, ICE worked around the clock to remove murderers, pedophiles, sexual assailants, drug traffickers, and other illegal aliens from our communities," said Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin in a statement Monday. "Despite facing a more than 1,600 percent increase in assaults against them, the brave men and women of ICE will never stop working to fulfill President Trump's mandate to make America safe again."There were more fruits of decarceration in Georgia:
Two people were shot dead and at least 35 more were injured after a homecoming block party in a Georgia town turned violent in the early hours of Sunday morning. Over 1,000 people had gathered for a celebration near Pine Street in Vienna, Ga., when a shooter opened fire around 1:25 a.m., according to Dooly County Sheriff Craig Peavy. The two victims were men, ages 20 and 23, according to the Dooly County Coroner Brett Walls. Their families and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) have been notified, but their names have not yet been released to the public.

Georgia school district invokes federal law to deny trans girl a shot at homecoming queen After being barred from running for queen, Riley Williams is asking Georgia education officials to include transgender students.
It's not a law, it's an executive order perverting the law to bully schools in hurting the most vulnerable students (or give transphobic school administrators cover to do so). I never attended my prom due to being bullied for being gay and queer. She should not have her experience ruined.
The school board probably got taken over by Moms For Liberty idiots who do what Fox orders them to.
Authoritarian state. Wild stuff. If I were in high school I’d lose my mind. How do the teachers face their students with this? This is exactly the trivial thing you *don’t* interfere with if you want the school to survive.
So is this the pathway for genitalia checking popular girls who are not jocks?
MTG is creaming over this.

My Dad was Air Force police in Germany in the late 70s, early 80s. He worked Octoberfest. Back then, the Polizei would beat the crap out of you if you stepped out of line. They had a hard rubber baton they'd hit you with. Even if you were an innocent person standing in their way when they had to get to a fight (or worse), you'd get whacked.

What will they do? shoot it down?

You know that the Noodle Headed/Macaroni won't surrender until it gets to their border, he'll let Putin do the job Napoleon couldn't, but by then Putin won't care, and finish the job on France as well.

They wouldn't be going after people in the street. They'ed be picking up aliens who were literally just in jail for additional crimes, usually repeatedly. They weren't here legally. They were commiting crimes, usually violent, and often against women and children. It would have been easy to deal with the worst of the worst.
But those are actually among the best Democrats. And a murdered constituent is one of the other best Democrats as well; they'll still vote Democrat despite no longer being around.
