Drunk and Homely Female Democrat Lives in a Van Down by the River and Threatens Republicans, "We Have Guns Too"

A retarded woman running as a Democrat -- is there any other kind? -- was plainly drunk and possibly on drugs when she popped into a studio for a scheduled interview.

A Democrat running for county council in eastern Indiana was ridiculed Tuesday after critics claimed she appeared "s--- faced" and slurred her way through attacks on Republicans during a televised candidate forum.
During the forum, Fayette County Council candidate Jaime West said she would "fire all Republicans" if elected, railed against "MAGAs" she called "racist" and unintelligent and alleged that a sheriff's nephew had threatened to kill her. Asked for a final message to voters, West responded: "We have guns too."
"This is not a skit," said LibsOfTikTok, a popular conservative punditry account run by commentator Chaya Raichik.
"Jaime West, a Democrat running for Fayette County Council in Indiana, gave an embarrassing interview where she appears to mumble and rant the entire time. Is she intoxicated?" Raichik asked on X.
...
When asked one decision she would make if elected that constituents would find unpopular, West told the moderator, "Fire all Republicans."
"I wouldn't let them -- I don't even talk to them. I don't like them. They voted against -- their own state representative voted against her own party," West continued while also pledging not to raise taxes.

"Y'all did this to us. ... You made this happen. This ICE coming into our communities, stealing people's jobs. I mean, I've been threatened so many times to my face by MAGA; we'll call them, because there's Republicans who actually get it. You know, there are good Republicans out there, but then there's these MAGAs who are just racist and aren't very intelligent at all," West continued.
"They call you names. The sheriff's nephew threatened to blow my head off. But, you know, what are you going to do?"

The sheriff says he has no idea what this brain-damaged woman is talking about. #BelieveAllSheriffs.

The moderator paused before asking West for a final message to voters.
"We have guns too," West said as the moderator pivoted to informing viewers about how to vote in the Hoosier State's elections this year.

Remember, all leftists are smarter than you. Their ideology assures them this the case. That's why they're so passionate about it. Their ideology tells them, despite all available evidence, that they are special and superior.

This is WILD. I legit thought it was a skit/high school video project.
It is 100% real.
This is Jaime West (Democratic Party) - she's running for election for Fayette County Council, District 4 in Indiana.
I had to make sure she did not have a neurological disorder that could account for the slurred speech and insane rambling.
She doesn't.
And even if she did have a diagnosed neurological disorder, "we have guns too!" after talking about firing all Republicans would ordinarily be disqualifying.

It is Oregon, of course. If he had a more-than-ten-round magazine then it will be proof that that law that violates the Constitution is essential to be enforced finally, and of course if he didn't it will be proof that it should be enforced anyways to continue to prevent greater tradgedies.

I don't give a shit what Demonrats say anymore. No reason to repeat nor figure out whatever lies they might tell. Simple heuristic for a more peaceful life-just assume whatever they would have said is a lie, a damned lie, or a statistic So you can disregard the rest of the statement after you hear the words Democrat.

FWIW, I was at the pistol range for the first time in about three years (could not go because of all the surgeries and recovery times between them) and it felt good to put bullets on target again.

Looking to go the rifle range before Election Day as Demonrats might get sporty if they lose as they deserve.

Do these people live on another planet? College campuses are already anti-men to the max. Many male college students I've spoken with tell me they feel like a punching bag. Absolutely delusional to suggest that college men "aren�t being taught about inequality, power & sexism."

Kamala Harris is still pretending she's running for president.

Fweedom!

Former Vice President Kamala Harris called for institutional changes to the Supreme Court and the Electoral College during an interview Tuesday, calling for more justices on the highest court in the nation.
"The work that we can do about winning back the House and the Senate is going to be on a number of things. For example, I believe that we need to expand the Supreme Court. We need more justices on the Supreme Court so that we can have a court that actually reinforces the spirit and principles behind the Constitution of the United States," Harris told podcast host Keke Palmer on her "Baby, This is Keke Palmer" podcast.
"I believe that we should be pushing for what is possible around changing the Electoral College. Right?
"It's about, the popular vote has to matter, right? You know, all the things that make people feel, like, overwhelmed, and does their vote matter? We have, you know, listen, if the folks there want it, we should be pushing for statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C., right? These are some of the things that are structural that we need to do, but we need to reestablish affordable child care," Harris added.
Harris lost both the Electoral College and the popular vote to President Donald Trump in 2024. She told Palmer she still remains undecided about a 2028 presidential run.

Governess Houchul has spared 16,000 criminals from deportation by refusing to deliver them to ICE.

New York blew off 16,000 Trump administration ICE orders to detain suspected heinous illegal migrants accused or convicted in more than 50,000 criminal charges, disturbing new data show.
The Department of Homeland Security said the municipalities across the Dem-driven state have refused to comply with its detainment requests 16,070 times since President Trump re-entered office fewer than two years ago -- refusing to hand over criminal migrants suspected or convicted of everything from murder to kidnapping and sexual assault.
"While sanctuary politicians continue to release dangerous criminals onto their streets, our brave law enforcement officers will continue to risk their lives to arrest these heinous criminals and make America safe again. Illegal aliens have no sanctuary in America," DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin told The Post.

"We enforce these laws with no help from Mayor [Zohran] Mamdani and Governor [Kathy] Hochul.

Governess Hochul put on an embarrassing performance in her debate with Republican Bruce Blakeman. Or so I'm told; I didn't watch it.

All she could do was keep repeating "Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump" because her record is terrible.

One poll says the race is neck-and-neck. I doubt it, but if you're a New York voters, you know what you could do that would result in the Funniest Thing Ever...?

Gov. Kathy Hochul and Bruce Blakeman are nearly neck-and-neck as they head into the gubernatorial election's only debate Tuesday, a stunning new poll found.
Democrat Hochul leads the Republican Nassau executive 47% to 44%, a Pollfinity survey released Tuesday found.
The poll found about 6% of voters were undecided, while another 3% planned to cast their ballots for others.
When undecided voters were asked which way they were leaning the race spread slightly, but just barely -- with the candidates falling within 4 points of each other at 48% to 44%.
The poll called on 499 New Yorkers between Oct. 8 and 12, and bucked trends other pollsters had found in recent weeks which placed Hochul at a roughly 10-point lead over Blakeman.
Hochul led Blakeman by 12 points -- 52% to 40%, with 8% undecided -- in an Oct. 8 poll from Emerson College and PIX 11 that called on 900 voters.

Kathy Hochul is asked about all the prejudicial statements she and Tish James have made pre-judging the "Cornell 7" defendants as Gang Rapists -- and then goes on to make even MORE flagrantly prejudicial statements, declaring the "victim" was "brutally attacked" at the fraternity https://t.co/nLcUtkaxSb

45 Regarding "MOAR TRAINING!" for men, it is important to realize that the AWFLs have zero conception of the real world, and also cannot ever blame women for bad outcomes.

Thus, giving sensible advice (which used to happen on campus) about avoiding hookups, going to parties alone, not dressing like a slug - all of those are inadmissible.

They just need to lecture you harder.

55 What does Harris actually bring to the table? Look at how they wasted campaign funds last time. No need to do the same mistake again.

Where has she been the past what? 2 years? I’ve heard more from Obama than I have her. She lost and tucked tail, I’m not a fan of that.

She lost to Trump, who should not be a difficult opponent. Dems allowed Republicans to make government so unworkable and difficult that the poor and working poor see no difference between the party that hates them and the party that capitulates to and sympathizes with the party that hates them.

Biden picked her because she would be such a bad candidate to go up against him as he got older, and the Democrats would choose him to run again. However, it's pretty clear that Biden would be a better president now, even if he had to turn most everything over to his advisors. The country would be in a much, much better position.

She is prepared and does her homework. She's smart and can run the government and lead the military. She would likely not be on CNN and the internet every fucking day. But in this timeline in this country she likely can't win.

California is where the popular “vote” usually gets lost by Republicans. That’s her state. If they had wanted her to run again, they would have ensured that she won the popular vote.

Is she not even smart enough to realize that, or is she just ignoring that even the state with the lowest bar for intelligence in Democrats wants her gone?

Now, parents in the Forest Lake Area School District are questioning whether students got an unexpected introduction to one particular U.S. Senate candidate during the school day — courtesy of a taxpayer-funded classroom.

Students across multiple grade levels — including high school seniors who are already 18 or will turn 18 by Election Day — were shown a video featuring Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan, the DFL candidate for U.S. Senate, as part of the district’s Indigenous Peoples’ Day observance Monday, Oct. 12.

In the three-minute KARE 11-produced segment about Indigenous Peoples’ Day, Flanagan touts her Native American heritage while also highlighting her political prominence.

“I’m the lieutenant governor of the great state of Minnesota, and I’m White Earth Ojibwe,” Flanagan says. “I am the highest-ranking native woman to serve an executive office in the country.”

Nancy Mace Was Right? Police Arrest Her Ex-Fiance and Three Other Men for Sexually Abusing an Unconscious Woman

She originally Soft Opened these charges with surveillance camera video from a gym. I thought she was complaining that the surveillance camera photographed her wearing her gym clothes.

I don't know why she didn't lead with the real story, the sexual assault on an unconscious woman.

South Carolina authorities have charged three of the four men Rep. Nancy Mace accused in a 2025 House floor speech of sexually abusing women and girls with offenses related to the alleged sexual assault of a 23-year-old incapacitated woman in 2018.
The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division announced the charges Wednesday against John Douglas Osborne, 46, Brendan Patrick Bryant, 53, and Eric Bernard Bowman, 46. All three men were booked into the Sheriff Al Cannon Detention Center in Charleston County.
Bryant is the former fiancé of Mace, who has said that she ended of her engagement to Bryant in November 2023 after discovering videos of women being sexually abused on his cellphone.
The alleged incident occurred Oct. 26, 2018, on Sullivan's Island, a 3 1/2-mile-long barrier island home to some 2,000 people near Charleston Harbor.
According to the affidavits supporting the charges, the victim, a 23-year-old woman, was drunk when she fell into the swimming pool of a residence. She then removed her wet clothes but for her bra and passed out on a sofa.
While she was unconscious, the three men are accused of discussing sexual exploits before agreeing that Osborne would have sex with the woman as the others watched.

The documents allege that as Osborne kissed, digitally penetrated and performed oral sex on the incapacitated woman, Bryant and Bowman watched. They are also accused of taking photos and video of the incident.
An unidentified witness allegedly overheard the alleged conversation between the men and watched Bowman and Bryant via a home security video feed apparently record the assault. The documents state the witness also obtained and saved two still photographic images from the security video feed and created an email or journal entry detailing the incident from her perspective.

...
The announcement comes nearly two years after Mace, a Republican firebrand, took to the House floor on Feb. 10, 2025, to accuse the three men and another of raping and filming women they had incapacitated. She also alleged that they took nonconsensual photos and videos of the victims.
She said she had found thousands of videos and photos of the alleged crimes and had identified almost a dozen dozen victims, including herself.

Well color me surprised.

I guess her speech did mention the assault. But she spoke about it in such a fuzzy way I didn't know what she was specifically alleging.

"I accidentally uncovered some of the most heinous crimes against women imaginable -- we are talking about rape, nonconsensual photos, nonconsensual videos of women and underage girls, and the premeditated, calculated exploitation," Mace revealed in her shocking speech.

I will just note that feminists basically use these words now to attack people just for criticizing them online. Without specifying the specific actions allegedly committed, no one can tell what a feminist means when she says "rape" any longer. (And Mace is, of course, a strident feminist. She sued the Citadel and forced her way into the formerly all-boys military academy.)

4 Speaking of alleged rapists, forgot about him:
---------------------
After months in hiding, a frantic ex-Rep. Eric Swalwell was spotted scurrying toward a black SUV outside his family home in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday — as the Los Angeles County DA confirmed it’s reviewing his criminal rape case for charges.

The California Post can also reveal Swalwell no longer living in the nation’s capital, and was only there for a fleeting business visit, which happened to fall on his 10th wedding anniversary to wife, Brittany Watts.

The 45-year-old appeared harried just before 9 p.m., attempting to disguise himself in a cap and glasses as he hustled toward a waiting car near the $1.2 million property he once shared with Watts and the couple’s three children.

She got on his phone and discovered "thousands of videos" of seemingly incapacitated women being assaulted and photos of herself taken without consent.

Maybe they're only focusing on this one video because it's the clearest evidence?

67 Total incels wouldn't molest that unconscious woman. They probably wouldn't be invited to a party where they'd see one but if on some off-chance they did end up there, they'd likely avoid the opportunity.
Because they'd register that it "wouldn't count".
The whole "incel" meme is something that high-status women thought up so as to further abuse low-status men. Safe target.

Neil Young says Tom Cruise's "Digger" is "the best film I have ever seen."

"None of the reviews I have read describe this film adequately, in my opinion," Young wrote. "They seem to miss the overall effect and most of them are negative. This film lives in a world of art. It is its own best review. Don't read any other reviews and forget this one before you see 'Digger.' It cannot be seen as a Tom Cruise film - that would be misleading. I would describe it as a film of our times... I do not view this film as a commercial venture. Rather it is an artful film of our times. The things that are said in 'Digger' are a direct reflection of today's political and social world. The film is so full of artful expression and radical change ups, that it may be too much to take in for those expecting a commercial film like we are used to today."

I have noticed this lack of understanding of what ought to be the lede is very common among conspiracy theorists, at least among the “paranormal”. My favorite remains von Daniken, who would basically write things like, here’s a suspiciously spherical sphere, and these triangular scratchings could easily represent an astronaut’s face mask, this detailed stone carving is clearly an astronaut in full outfit with a helmet microphone holding a grooved disc, and for further proof, did you ever notice that birds are prevalent in ancient mythologies…

Wait, what was that about an astronaut in full outfit again? Why are you grouping that with round stones and rough triangles? Either they’re lying and they know it (this was almost certainly the case with von Daniken—the illustration in question was from a Soviet-era music magazine) or they have lost all sense of what constitutes proof, if they ever had it.

You can see the same thing in UFO enthusiasts and psychical researchers.

And more importantly, why has the Democratic Party allowed her stepbrother to become their Michigan Senate nominee, despite their obvious ties to terrorist groups? The two most consequential fallouts of radical left-wing ideology's capture of public institutions has been the demoralization of American youth and the welcoming of anti-American foreigners who enjoy the luxuries of our country while working to undermine it.

143 I believe in the possibility of the basis of his theory more than I believe the evidence of it being true.

My estimate of the possibility is probably far lower than yours, but fully agree with this statement: even my very low possibility is still higher the possibility that his evidence has any bearing on it.

It’s hard not to think he feels the same way. If he truly believed his theory had any possibility of being true, he would have, on discovering that absolute proof of ancient astronauts, given up on balls and shrouds and spent far more time trying to find that engraving. He reproduced a photograph. If true, it was absolute proof. (You can see it at the link in my nic.)

UFO researchers often do the same with vague lights in the sky and clearly full-on ships with people in them. They treat these two bits of evidence the same—and give them the same complete lack of investigation.

Iran Sentences Woman to Death For Insulting Their "Prophet;" Activists Attack Pete Hegseth For Making War on This Enlightened Regime

The mullahs will hang a woman for insulting the leaders of Iran, which they then trumped up to insulting the "prophet."

An Iranian woman has been sentenced to death for blasphemy over a social media post that insulted the prophet.
Accounting student Najmeh Amini, 23, was sentenced to death last month after being held in the notorious Vakilabad Prison in Mashhad for eight months.
It was previously reported that Amini was being held on charges that included 'insulting the Supreme Leader' and 'clashing with security agents.'
However, Iranian human rights activists have now revealed that the student was sentenced to death on charges of 'sab ol-nabi' (insulting the prophet).
She was also sentenced to 12 years, six months, and one day on charges of acting against national security and spreading anti-regime propaganda.

So the whole claim of blasphemy is a lie, they just want to murder her because she spoke out against them.

Amini was arrested on January 31 after she -- alongside hundreds of thousands of Iranians -- took to the streets to protest against its authoritarian government.
In response, security forces unleashed a deadly crackdown, in which more than 7,000 people were killed, while thousands more were arrested, according to human rights groups.
Following her sentencing last month, a leaked voice recording from inside prison emerged, in which Amini desperately pleaded for help.
'Greetings to the people of Iran. I am Najmeh Amini, 23 years old, speaking from the central prison of Mashhad. I am leaving this message for you on 18 September 2026,' she is heard saying.
...
'I request that international human rights organisations and responsible bodies at the United Nations hear my voice and investigate and follow up on the status of my case.

The UN. Sorry, lady, the UN will not help you. They will cheerlead your murder.

...
'The Iranian authorities are unleashing a horrifying wave of executions and death sentences to punish and suppress dissent and project an image of strength and absolute control,' said Heba Morayef, Amnesty International's regional director.
'The muted response from the international community emboldens the Iranian authorities to continue their deadly rampage.'
Amnesty said at least 26 people were arbitrarily executed after being convicted of offences related to the January protests, following what it said were 'torture-tainted, grossly unfair trials' by revolutionary courts.

Iran, like Communist China and the Soviet Union before that, represents the leftist dream of murdering their opponents and taking full control over all aspects of society, and therefore must be defended and praised by all good communist cultists.

Multiple Iran War protesters have crashed Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's Wednesday roundtable on Autonomous Warfare at the Association of the United States Army conference.
In a coordinated effort, six different protesters took turns interrupting Hegseth's panel at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. The roundtable is currently ongoing, and there may be more protesters as the event continues to unfold.
The video player is currently playing an ad.
"Pete Hegseth, you're a fucking war criminal, you're a Nazi," a male protester yelled while in the middle aisle of the event, in full view of Hegseth. "You should be ashamed, he screamed."
...
The confrontation was not Hegseth's first encounter with anti-war demonstrators. On April 30, a protester affiliated with the anti-war organization CODEPINK interrupted Hegseth's testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee, accusing him of war crimes and condemning American military operations in Iran before being arrested by Capitol Police, according to CODEPINK.
"You're a war criminal," one protester screamed repeatedly while being dragged out by security.

12 The IGRC and Venezuela dealt in below-market oil sold on the black market, internationally evading the embargos, to the benefit of a number of European and Asian countries, who could buy it at that cost and resell it at market cost while pocketing the tidy profit found in the difference.

The US Navy, in performing its duty in enforcing the embargoes pushed by the Euros and Asians, as well as others, guaranteed that the price of that embargoed oil would remain low, supplies remained high, and the profit lucrative. In black-bagging Maduro and allowing the Iranians to blockade the Straits of Hormuz and rolling up the floating Iranian tankers, and crimping down on the shadow banking, the profit went away, and EVERYONE wound up paying market prices.

of course the US is hated

Billionaire stadium owner, Robert Kraft, did not like Macklemore, a Grammy winning rapper, saying "Free Palestine" on stage — so he made calls and the artist got pulled off of Ed Sheeran's tour.

This is not just about a single musical act. This is about how a small handful of powerful people, like stadium owners, can threaten someone's livelihood in order to prevent an entire massive issue from being spoken about -- in this case, the genocide in Gaza.

I read that book, too, and he made some good points, but I believe Mo existed, and that he wrote his rants (or had somebody write them down, because he was probably illiterate), and that is why they are internally inconsistent. I also believe he was epileptic and that was the source of his "inspiration" and visions. I'm quite sure he was a warlord, intent on world domination, but he didn't think that big because he had never seen the world beyond the Arabian peninsula, and couldn't imagine how he could ever pull off that coup.

I'm equally sure his "followers" saw the possibilities in leveraging ol Mo's image to slaughter their rivals and take over their lands, money, and women. Mo didn't start the religion, but after he died, his "followers" certainly did. Politics can be trifled with, not so "religion."

Sure Iran killing someone for criticizing the government is bad, and them making women wear hijabs is bad but you know what is worse? Trump deporting illegals and ending USAID spending.

So, if we make a big deal about Iran we are doing something wrong because that would help Trump and that would be the real sin

79 Read Mo was a made up person as well

There are no contemporary records of Mo, but of course he did come from a primitive civilization that wasn't big on writing and someone committed genocide on the local Jewish population who likely would have written about it if not killed...

The interesting thing here though is Islam makes Mecca out to be an important trading hub at the time but they've found no Roman coins there - and as a comparison they've found Roman coins at other sites on the trade routes to India so that certainly seems odd...

Overall though I think Mo probably was a real person who said some of the stuff attributed to him, had sex with the men of Al-Zutt and 9 year olds - but he was living in a primitive village whose only claim to fame was an unimportant pagan temple.

80 At the Trump rally in Wasilla, there was one idiot in line wearing a hot dog costume. Nobody could figure out the point of it until he decided to rush the stage and yell some idiocy about Trump. Trump specifically called out the local cops for tackling this idiot, faster than ever, and hauling his worthless ass out. Then the Secret Service took over and I doubt hot dog boy made it home that evening.

So they marry an inmate, have conjugal? sex, fully compliant with sharia, and then also fully compliant with sharia they divorce her the next day to let the next guard have his turn.

It truly is an evil religion and everywhere they are not too numerous they ought to be mocked endlessly for being scared of adult women and dogs and shot down if they riot in response. That might actually cut their power.

Texas Man Charged Migrants $200 Each for a Ride to Apply for Asylum and Drove Them Straight to ICE Detention.

Authorities say a Texas man was arrested after charging illegal migrants $200 apiece while telling them he would take them to places where they could apply for asylum. Instead, he drove them to ICE detention centers.

Officials claim he presented himself as someone offering help and then handed the migrants over to federal immigration authorities.

142 109 Authorities say a Texas man was arrested after charging illegal migrants $200 apiece while telling them he would take them to places where they could apply for asylum. Instead, he drove them to ICE detention centers.

Officials claim he presented himself as someone offering help and then handed the migrants over to federal immigration authorities.

YES: Trump's DHS Is Preparing a Case for Deporting the Foreign Agent of Influence Ilhan "Omar"

I'm so happy.

The Trump administration is building a case that could lead to the deportation of Rep. Ilhan Omar, with federal agents seizing the Minnesota Democrat's cellphone, notebooks, personal computers and her passport on Monday, according to a new report and people familiar with the investigation.
Omar has long maintained that she became a US citizen at the age of 17 when her father was naturalized in 2000, but sources with direct knowledge of the federal raid on her DC bungalow said the Department of Justice is looking for evidence that claim is a lie.
If the Somali-born Omar's citizenship was procured by the concealment of a material fact or by willful misrepresentation -- either by herself or by her father, Nur Omar Mohamed -- on immigration paperwork, then the feds will seek to denaturalize and deport her, one of the sources confirmed.

Is that even her "father"? There is evidence that her real father is a Somali war criminal who genocided enemy tribes and who was trained as a revolutionary by the communist party. She has called this man -- Nur Omar Said -- "father." When asked why she refers to him as "father," she claimed that Somalis routinely call men who are not their fathers "father" to show respect.

That's a lot of bullshit.

The 44-year-old congresswoman was at home with her husband Tim Mynett when agents executed a search warrant and removed the items, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Criminal charges could only be brought if the alleged immigration fraud occurred within the past 10 years, while if it concerned false statements there would be a five-year statute of limitations, according to federal defense attorney Todd Spodek.
Securing a criminal conviction for "knowingly procuring naturalization unlawfully requires revocation of citizenship," Spodek said, though a member of US Congress has never been denaturalized before.
There's no similar statute of limitations if civil denaturalization is pursued....
The Post confirmed Wednesday that prosecutors in Minnesota are leading the immigration fraud probe into the "Squad" member, while the office of DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro is pursuing an inquiry into Omar and Mynett's finances.

...
The Post reported Tuesday that in the spring of 2019, following Omar's initial election to the House of Representatives, her staff pressed the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library, the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress, and Wikipedia to record her birth as happening in 1982 rather than 1981.
Months earlier, in the fall of 2018, Omar's campaign had told the Associated Press that she didn't have a birth certificate due to her family's displacement by the long-running Somalia civil war.
...
More than a dozen grand jury subpoenas have also been issued to family members of the Minnesota congresswoman, including her sister, Sahra Noor.

That sister just so happens to have run a "charity" with the same address as the address as three of the keu "Feeding Our Future" Somali fraudsters.

One of the largest fraud scandals in Minnesota may involve the family of Ilhan Omar.
The far-left congresswoman's sister used the address of a woman who was business partners with several major convicts in the "Feeding Our Future" scandal, a Daily Wire investigation found.
The federal meals scandal is described as the largest public theft in Minnesota history. The statehouse's House Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Committee is probing the Somali-born congresswoman's involvement in the scandal, but Democrats in May blocked a subpoena that would require Omar to produce records.
Public records in the state, however, may tie Omar's sister, Sahra Noor, to the operation. Noor has run several businesses in the region, including the People's Center Clinics & Services in the Somali neighborhood of Minneapolis, which controversially received a $2 million earmark while her sister was a state representative.
Noor went on to found a group called Grit Partners Consulting, and publicly says her company "has secured more than $20 million in funding for health initiatives" and has "consulted on projects backed by" federal health agencies such as USAID and the Center for Disease Control.
Grit Partners was incorporated at a home on Hyacinth Ave. in Lakeville, Minnesota. That address, and the woman who lives there, are lynchpins tying together at least three Feeding Our Future convicts, The Daily Wire found.

🚨 ILHAN OMAR UPDATE: SHE IS IN MAJOR HOT WATER
- DOJ is building a case to strip her citizenship and ultimately DEPORT HER
- Her passport and phone were seized
- A federal grand jury sent out about a dozen subpoenas
- Possible additional charges being looked at: conspiracy and false statements
- Federal agents with HSI searched Omar's D.C.-area home under a search warrant
- The focus is reportedly her birthdate and the family's immigration records
- Her father brought the family to the U.S. from a refugee camp in 1995
- In 2019, her staff reportedly asked to change her listed birth year from 1981 to 1982, meaning citizenship might be invalid
- US Attorney Jeanine Pirro has a SEPARATE probe into Omar's financial disclosures
This is the scandal she was hoping would NEVER COME. It's finally here!
THE END RESULT MUST BE DEPORTATION, MINIMUM

Jake Tapper, who cheerleaded Jack Smith's rush to indict Trump before the 2024 presidential election, is absolutely horrified that Ilhan "Omar" would be investigated now before an election.

He's so distraught he wonders why Ilhan Omar didn't just cop to a paperwork "oopsie" while Biden was president, suggesting that Biden could have fixed the "oopsie."

But could he have? Presidents can grant pardons for federal crimes -- they have no power to simply grant citizenship to foreigners who not only don't qualify for it, but who committed crimes to fraudulently obtain a fake citizenship.

Gerald Posner
@geraldposner
3h
Here's a question nobody is asking about the Ilhan Omar investigation. If authorities succeed in stripping her citizenship, could a Democratic president in 2028 reverse everything and put her back into Congress?
The WSJ and other outlets report authorities are building a case to strip her citizenship over her 2000 naturalization. The Constitution requires House members to be citizens. No citizenship, no seat.
But the criminal route (18 U.S.C. sec. 1425) has a 10-year statute of limitations and that ran long ago. The viable path is almost certainly civil denaturalization under 8 U.S.C. sec. 1451(a). That is a civil court judgment, not a criminal conviction, so even if the Democrats win the White House in 2028, the pardon power would not reach it.
If there was a criminal conviction on different matter and a future president pardoned it, no one knows whether that would restore citizenship. It has never been tested. Naturalization is Congress's power, not the president's. And a pardon would not automatically hand back her seat. She would have to win it again.
Granted, this is all years away. My legal DNA just likes to game out the possible endgame on high profile probes like this.

This woman says that there's no record than the man Ilhan "Omar" claims was her father, and through whom she obtained a fraudulent "derivative" citizenship, actually ever was a naturalized citizen at all.

If he never actually became a naturalized citizen, he would have no citizenship through which Ilhan "Omar" could "derive" her own.

AJ Kern has done extensive research on Ilhan Omar�s citizenship verification. When an adult parent gains citizenship through the naturalization process, their minor children �derive� citizenship through that parent. Since minors cannot naturalize independently and adults cannot derive citizenship from their parents, Ilhan Omar has repeatedly claimed that she �derived� citizenship through her father as a minor at the age of 17.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) does not allow records requests to be processed for a living foreign-born person without their permission. However, the USCIS will process a record request for a deceased foreign-born person.
Since Ilhan Omar�s father passed away in 2020, AJ Kerm submitted the request to the USCIS in June 2022, for her father�s records and she received a response on June 20, 2023. It turns out that the USCIS has no record of her father being a naturalized US citizen.
Therefore, this is probably why the Biden Administration�s Justice Department launched an investigation into Ilhan Omar in June 2024, and why a Democrat judge signed off on a search for Ilhan Omar�s home. Of course, CNN, MSNBC, and Democratic politicians will never mention any of this because it does not fit their narrative.

I just saw the news that Crowder is suing CNN and Talarico over copyright infringement. They titled his CNN town hall as "change my mind." This will be so fun.

one of the people whose minds Talarico was trying to change on abortion was a staunch Catholic theologian and professor. Yeah, good luck with that.

The left has ridiculed the change my mind format, which spawned an enduring meme. And now they are acting like they invented the concept. Sounds about right!

You don't say.

Omar was the sponsor of the Maintaining Essential Access to Lunch for Students (MEALS) Act during the lockdowns which allowed all this fraud to occur. Of course she was involved.

On another happy note, John Brennan is currently being grilled in front of a grand jury in St. Lucie Florida over his involvement in the grand conspiracy to deprive Trump of his civil rights. He is a target of the investigation not just a witness.

"building" a case that "could" lead to deportation ... some heavy lifting going on in there. The Blade is also "building" a case that "could" lead to Maxim cover girls snorting K off his dick.

This is gangsta, though:

"The 44-year-old congresswoman was at home with her husband Tim Mynett when agents executed a search warrant and removed the items"

They didn't wait until these two loathsome parasites were away. They did it right there, in their faces, while you know Omar was mewling "don't you know who I ammmmmmm?"

If Trump is not scared to go after a high-profile sitting Dem Congressman, how can the Party protect me if I commit fraud for them?

That's because they are all very stupid people who have never been held accountable for their crimes in the past so they have no way to imagine that Trump will come after them for vote fraud.

One of the things that has come out from all these investigations is that then of millions of dollars were sent back to Somalia through the Minneapolis airport and if you've flown through there you will know a lot of the workers are light bulb heads.

It has long been rumored that some of that money might have ended up with al Shabaab which is the Somalian branch of al Qaeda. I don't think that will energize a lot of people on the left.

Noor has run several businesses in the region, including the People's Center Clinics & Services in the Somali neighborhood of Minneapolis, which controversially received a $2 million earmark while her sister was a state representative."

Is Sahra Omar's real sister, or the pretend sister? I've lost track of these fakes constantly practicing their taqiyya (lying) ways on US.

169 The simple truth of the matter is that Somalis would never return to Somalia. They are this generation's equivalent to the Romani Gypsies. They'll merely find more fertile and accommodating grounds more fitting to their illegal endeavors. I fully expect a large swath of the Minnesota Somalis to pick up and move in mass as a tribal society is want to do. San Diego is a good guess on their next fleecing destination.

Were they to get tossed out of the US by some unlikely miracle, I would expect them to move onto an established welfare state like Canada, UK, France and even some of the Slavic countries. It would be a country ripe for the picking. They are, at there heart, 21st Century Gypsies.

Anthony Fauci Blamed Trump for the Spread of the Completely-True Lab Leak Theory Fact

Trump rarely gets credit from the establishment, but here, his evil malignant dwarf nemesis gives him full credit for getting the truth out.

Anthony Fauci blamed President Donald Trump for the public's concern that the COVID-19 pandemic had emanated from a laboratory in Wuhan to which Fauci's institute had shipped funding and high-risk coronavirus experiments, newly released documents show.
Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul on Wednesday released new pages of the daily diary that Fauci had stored on government servers with entries stretching from December 2021 to May 2022. The entries give the starkest view yet into Fauci's thinking as his preferred narrative around the pandemic's origins -- that it originated from a wet market in Wuhan -- began to crumble.
By the end of 2021, scientists and journalists pursuing the so-called "lab leak theory" had evaded earlier censorship efforts, defied bullying in the scientific community and broken containment.
Fauci often wrote in his diary about his intention to set the story straight in his forthcoming memoir. Rather than reflecting on his decisions to champion gain-of-function research that makes viruses more deadly in the lab, Fauci sought to portray the hypothesis that COVID had resulted from a lab accident as a Trump-backed conspiracy against him.

"****Very important issue to discuss in the book. The entire controversy with China as the source of the outbreak and the lab leak theory stems from the tension between Trump and China," Fauci wrote in a March 21, 2022.
Fauci faulted Trump for ordering the termination of a grant from Fauci's institute at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to EcoHealth Alliance, an infectious diseases nonprofit that discovered novel coronaviruses and enhanced them in lab experiments with the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV).

It was later proved that EcoHealth did in fact illegally use Fauci's money to fund gain-of-function research. EcoHealth is now blackballed from receiving federal funding.

"Please remember that when it was brought to the attention of Trump that the NIH was funding a grant at Wuhan where the outbreak was first recognized, Trump ordered, with no evidence to support any suspicion, that we cancel the grant," Fauci wrote.

This filthy despicable cocksucker.

Despite Fauci's contention that the termination had been unjustified, four years later EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak saw debarment by the Biden administration's Department of Health and Human Services. HHS said it sought to "protect the public interest" by ending the group's funding after evidence mounted of reckless biosafety practices and shifting statements to federal regulators about a delayed grant report covering the period immediately before the pandemic's outbreak.
Fauci said that conditions had been placed on EcoHealth that "they essentially were not able to meet."

"You stated just a couple of weeks ago that people that haven't been trained in how to put on a 'N-95 mask' will just contaminate the mask and gain no protection, now you are saying people will gain protection with a cloth mask, which studies after the Spanish flu proved had no effect on catching the flu".

Fauci wanted a corona virus vaccine and approved the proposal to make one in Wuhan.

China screwed up and release it.

Fauci went to his partners at Pfizer and Moderna that told me they basically had the vaccine ready they'd all been working on. They lied. But he went with what they told him and put everything in on hiding how he created COVID but focused on how his partners had the cure with the clot shot.

So he knew and was lying about what COVID was and where it came from but intentionally he did believe the clot shot worked

58 Thug life.

In 1704, George Frideric Handel and Johann Mattheson almost died in a sword fight over who should conduct a Hamburg opera — but a metal button on Handel’s coat saved his life, and they later became friends
The incident happened in December 1704 in Hamburg, during the premiere of Mattheson’s opera Die Misfortune of Cleopatra (Die Unglück von Cleopatra)
Mattheson was both singing the role of “Anthony” and, according to tradition, expected to conduct from the harpsichord. Handel, who had been invited to fill in as conductor, refused to vacate the seat
Accounts differ on the exact trigger, but the most common version is that Handel would not give up the conductor’s position while Mattheson was on stage
Mattheson suggested they settle the matter outside, and the two young composers — Handel aged 19, Mattheson 23 — drew swords
Outside the theater, the two exchanged blows in a brief but intense fight
In one telling, Mattheson lunged with a thrust aimed at Handel’s heart, but the blade struck a large metal button on Handel’s coat instead of his chest
The crowd gasped, but Handel was unharmed.

Fauci is about 300 years old and has a ton of money, and a federal blanket pardon. So far, he's gotten away with everything, and experiences no feelings of guilt or regret. The question is, what can be done to punish him at this point?

He was killing people and torturing dogs long before covid. He got away with all that too.

My pet theory (see what I did there?) is that since Mohammed, earlier in life, was a caravan raider - a pirate - and naturally attacked caravans at night when they were asleep, the dogs would alert and sound the alarm. Hence when he 'invented' his religion, making dogs unclean was a given. Because he was a fucking murdering pirate, among other things.

"Students asked me to post a key to the study guide in Schoology. Done!
Students asked me to post a quiz game in schoology they could play. Done!
I was able to answer lots of questions they had during the last 10 minutes of class."

Bravo...*slow clap*

So are you personally teaching at any point, or answering questions after the games and videos did the teaching? Or in other words... "What...would you say...you do here???"

Trump Fines Bank of America $1.2 Billion Over Money Laundering for China

Bank of America is one of the worst offenders for closing bank accounts for conservative and religious groups, claiming that working for such groups causes them too much "reputational risk."

They debanked people to curry favor with the Biden gangsters.

But working with China to launder money and evade sanctions? No reputation risk worth talking about.

The Treasury Department said Tuesday it is fining Bank of America $1.2 billion for allegedly violating anti-money laundering and sanctions laws.
The department accused the bank of failing to report and mitigate notable national security risks, including Chinese Money Laundering Networks and suspected "illicit finance along the southwest border."
It also failed to report more than $5 billion in suspicious activity to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.
...
The department said Bank of America also reached an $11.6 million settlement with its Office of Foreign Assets Control over "apparent violations of numerous sanctions programs, including on Iran, Russia, narcotics, and global terrorism."
The $1.2 billion penalty includes $750 million that will go to the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which is the largest fine ever imposed by that agency.

Update: Via Biden's dog sniffs a lot of marlarkey, a previous bank whistleblower who said that a fine that barely impacts BoA's profits is not enough.

People --even the rich white collar corporate types that pay money to both parties for protection-- need to go to prison.

Everett Stern
@EverettStern1
Dear Secretary Bessent
@SecScottBessent,
My name is Everett Stern. In 2010 I was a compliance officer at @HSBC. From a back office in New Castle, Delaware, I watched billions of dollars move to drug cartels, sanctioned regimes, and terrorist organizations. The enemies of the United States. I documented it, I escalated it, and when the bank would not act, I took it to the @FBI, the @CIA, and eventually the @SECGov.
The result was a $1.92 billion settlement. At the time, it was one of the largest in American history. It was also about five weeks of the bank's profit. Not one banker was charged. Not one went to prison.
I paid a different price. I lost my career, my savings, and my place in the industry I had trained for. I was blacklisted. Every door in American finance closed at once. I slept on a camping cot in a 300 square foot apartment because I could not afford a bed, and I waited tables at @PFChangs to eat. I tell you this not for sympathy, but so you understand that I know exactly what it costs to do the right thing in American finance, and exactly how little the system does in return.
I made that sacrifice because I believed it would change something.
Yesterday, your department fined @BankofAmerica $1.2 billion for failing to report more than $5 billion in suspicious transactions, some of it tied by your own findings to Chinese laundering networks, narcotics, and the southwest border, alongside 475 apparent sanctions violations touching Russia, Iran, and global terrorism. The bank admitted it willfully violated the Bank Secrecy Act.
Fourteen years after HSBC. A bank with "America" in its name. And once again, not one individual charged.
Secretary Bessent, I want to say plainly what I believe you already know. The fines are not working.
A fine is paid by shareholders, absorbed by the balance sheet, and forgotten by the next earnings call. Bank of America reported earnings this morning. Nobody who set the alert thresholds, nobody who decided the 2024 cease and desist could wait, nobody who chose the backlog over the law will lose a single thing they value. Their lives are untouched. That is the entire reason the behavior repeats.
This is money laundering. This is blood money. Money that reaches a cartel buys fentanyl that kills Americans. Money that reaches a terrorist organization buys the next attack. This country has fought a war on drugs and a war on terror for decades, at enormous cost in lives and treasure, and all the while we have allowed the financing to flow through institutions we charter and regulate. Cut off the money and we win. We have never seriously tried.
There is also a question of equal justice that I cannot let go.
Before I walked into the FBI building to report HSBC, I stopped in front of the Great Seal on the wall and read the words engraved beneath it: "Justice is the defense of our liberty." I believed that. I still want to. But every day in this country, people go to prison for crimes that are nothing next to moving money for the people who want Americans dead. A suit, a title, and a corporate badge should not be a shield from the consequences that apply to everyone else. If a street dealer goes to prison for what he sells, the banker who moved the cartel's money should be standing next to him.
I also want to raise something that is rarely said in these conversations. Why has no one inside Bank of America come forward the way I did? The answer is that everyone in American banking knows what happened to me, and to the whistleblowers who came after. The last person who spoke up is the only policy anyone believes. That is a culture problem, and it starts with leadership, in the banks and in the agencies that regulate them.
This is not a political issue. It has spanned administrations of both parties. It is a national security issue, and I am asking you to treat it as one.
Three things would change the math overnight.
Refer individuals for criminal prosecution. Not the analyst in the queue. The executives who set the thresholds and chose the risk. One banker in handcuffs would do more than every fine in Treasury's history combined.
End "too big to jail." An institution cannot be too big to fail and too big to jail at the same time. If it is the first, it must be held to a higher standard, not a lower one.
And if Bank of America will not act as America's bank, review its charter. A national charter is a privilege granted on behalf of the American people. It should be conditioned on not moving money for the people trying to kill them.
Secretary Bessent, you said yesterday that these actions send a clear message that even the biggest institutions are not above the law. With respect, the institution was never the problem. The people inside it are above the law, and they know it. Until that changes, I will keep writing letters like this one, and the next bank will keep paying the next fine.
I gave up everything I had to stop this. I am asking you to use the power you have to finish it.
Respectfully,
Everett A. Stern

Related: Chinese intel operative Neville Roy Singham and his communist wife are launching a pro-CCP propaganda tour.

I haven't heard about this pair being debanked.

A California-based nonprofit with ties to the CCP and Neville Roy Singham embarked on a Chinese propaganda tour this week, telling attendees they could learn about the "revolutionary history" of the communist country while "marveling" at the socialist development in the country.
On Sunday, CodePink, a 501(c)(3) registered in Marina del Rey, California, posted a video of co-founder Medea Benjamin in an airport discussing her trip to China. The video, which was posted in between separate posts bashing Columbus Day and propping up feminism, detailed how Benjamin will show how the communist country is different from "the one we keep hearing about in Washington."
The following day, CodePink posted another clip of Benjamin outside a university in China lauding the safety of the country, saying enthusiastically that it is "amazing" an umbrella or bike can be left unattended in the region "without worrying about someone stealing it."

...
"Explore China's revolutionary history, while marveling at high-tech infrastructure and modern socialist development," the event description reads. "Highlights include Red Memorials, Historical Re-Enactments and Museums, Socialist Infrastructure, and Rural Revitalization."
...
Since 2017, Singham has funneled $278 million into a broad network of nonprofits, including CodePink, according to a Fox News Digital investigation. These groups regularly organize and participate in anti-ICE, anti-Israel and pro-Iran demonstrations.

TIANANMEN SQUARE 1989: THE FOOTAGE CHINA WANTS FORGOTTEN
This is restored footage from June 1989, shot in secret by a British ITN crew and smuggled out of China. Most of it sat in an archive for more than 30 years. To this day, the Chinese Communist Party won't say how many of its own students it killed.

Posted by: sniffybigtoe at October 15, 2026 12:18 PM (yt3LH)

31 $1.2 billion is a nice start.

But the reality is, these banks are so ginormously big that until Bessent starts nailing them with fines in the 100s of billions, if not trillions, it will barely leave a mark.

BoA has 5 trillion -- yes, with a "t" -- assets under management. The bank makes tens of billions in profit every year.

The $1.2B fine probably didn't even cover the profits that BoA made on all the illegal transfers.

A bit further in your link, it says this. I agree completely.

Three things would change the math overnight.

Refer individuals for criminal prosecution. Not the analyst in the queue. The executives who set the thresholds and chose the risk. One banker in handcuffs would do more than every fine in Treasury’s history combined.

End “too big to jail.” An institution cannot be too big to fail and too big to jail at the same time. If it is the first, it must be held to a higher standard, not a lower one.

And if Bank of America will not act as America’s bank, review its charter. A national charter is a privilege granted on behalf of the American people. It should be conditioned on not moving money for the people trying to kill them.

Hi, someone here who actually lived in China for 10 years and not in a multi-million dollar mansion... Theft is of course RAMPANT in China. My wallet got stolen out of my backpack while I was playing pick-up basketball at a local playground... My Chinese girlfriend (secretary for a state-owned corporation who lived in a tiny apartment with her parents; nowhere near wealthy) had 3 bikes stolen from her, and someone snatched her purse out her bike basket while she was riding to work (which made her take the bus and quit riding her bike)... There were always reports about different pick-pocket schemes going on in the street markets... This is such a ridiculous f-ing statement by this cunt. Sure, VIOLENT crime is relatively rare there. But if this twat ever set foot on a common street or in a common market, she'd be robbed in under 5 mins...

For those that missed it.

CNN and MSNow were doing happy dances after President Trump said the execution wouldn't be livestreamed. After the mid-terms - we'll see. I'll be fine with pay-per-view.

Talarico's town hall on CNN was nicely choreographed and he came across as not-creepy and normal - for a Dem. He basically gave stock Dem answers designed to not scare the normies. As Lizzy commented, yeah, just lie to people until he gets in power. That seemed to be the strategy. I watch the first hour while doing dishes and cleaning the microwave.

Zerohedge had an article on 'student protests' spreading. Oh, I hope so. Let's get this on.

And if the bank people can't be executed, some poor lady on "Let's make a Deal" just won free movies for a year. That'd be a nice start for punishment.

Stop calling me Shirley. You may think this is a crime, until you realize who writes 99% of the banking laws and regulations, and who donates billions to politicians, and who hires armies of lobbyists, and who employs almost everyone who leaves government banking regulators, and who is so large and powerful they practically control the entire country.

95 Slow news day? Here's an oddity that came across my feed, thanks to my watching Asmongold content: Ocean, 27F, making a pitch for immediate marriage. Sorry I couldn't find his actual video; I had to go to my YouTube history just to find this, which is part of the ecosystem of 'piggyback' accounts that clip shorts from other people's videos:

Mad-Hercules - She Has The Perfect Offer😭
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ab5Mtu_UY3E

Surprisingly few commenters (both in Asmon's live feed and on Hercules's short) were hung up on her several mental illnesses; I guess that's just par for the course these days. Surprisingly many were hung up on her $100k debt, which if it's student debt is also par for the course. Commenters were suspiciously silent on her sobriety-as-achievement, while an accurate number were hung up on her being a thief, and no one noted her own suspicious silence on motherhood status.

But what really puts this over the top is almost a throwaway line near the end: Shrek roleplay. Everyone was puzzled. What does that even mean? It took me to the following day to realize, she means that she farts -- a lot -- a lot a lot -- so much that she hopes it won't be a boner-killer.

NEW: California-based federal judge Jinsook Ohta (Biden appointee) has ruled that the U.S. State Department must reinstate its Diversity Immigrant Visa lottery for fiscal year 2027 by Sunday.

The program offers permanent residency in the U.S. to 50,000+ applicants every year, typically from countries with lower immigration to the U.S. Many come from Africa.

The Trump admin suspended the program last year after a Portuguese national who came to the U.S. via the diversity lottery was suspected of a deadly shooting at Brown University & the murder of a MIT professor before taking his own life.

I have $4M in savings and a paid off $1.1M house and am 60. Can I afford to retire? My wife says no so I vetoed her $8K Italian vacation plan.

Now reading this my take is you are 60 with a paid off house and $4M in savings. Even if it gains no interesting you can spend $100K/year and leave your kids substantial money. I wonder if your wife just doesn't want you around the house all day...

Posted by: Biff Pocoroba at October 15, 2026 12:55 PM (JzUSu)

I rather suspect that while a naval blockade would be the smarter play, China really wants to militarily crush Taiwan like a bug in order to exact revenge on the KMT for kicking their ass 90-odd years ago, forcing them to undergo the Long March in order to survive. The ChiCom victory in 1949 was only a partial victory, since the KMT escaped to Taiwan where the ChiComs couldn't get their hands on them.

The mohammedans actually have a plan for the future. Of course that plan involves the whole world living in huts without running water, dorking goats up the squeekhole, shitting in the street and wiping their ass with a bare hand because that's what Mo did 1400 years ago.

The Morning Rant: Coal Deserves A Second Look

[click to enlarge]

Well, it has always been an amazingly efficient source of energy, and one with fewer technological issues that complicate extraction. It can be transported on existing infrastructure (rail lines), and is much safer during transport than any other fossil fuel. Modern coal-fired power plants are also amazingly clean... no killing smog like in London in the 1950s!

Oh...we also have enough of it to power America for hundreds of years!

So what's the problem?

Two generations of rabid environmentalists/communists have conspired to destroy the image of coal. People now think of strip-mined hillsides and monstrous plumes of black smoke belching from smokestacks, rather than cheap, clean, and abundant energy that is entirely produced in America.

Add in the idiocy of Anthropogenic Global Warming/Climate Change^TM, and we have demonized coal so much that we are closing perfectly good power plants just because coal is icky, and its use creates carbon dioxide. You know...the stuff that plants eat to feed us and make oxygen so we can breathe!

You Pay Each Month for Closing Coal Power

Coal kept the cost of electricity at an affordable level for over a century but idealistic policy decisions to close to 300 coal plants in the last 15 years have opened the door for higher and more volatile electricity prices. In 2010, the price of electricity in the U.S. was about 11 cents per kilowatt hour. By 2026 the price of electricity has increased 75% to 19 cents. And, according to the Department of Energy, rates could increase another 40% in the next four years. Meanwhile coal generation has dropped from 45% of America's power to barely 16% today and is projected to decline another 50% by 2030. In statistics this is called an inverse correlation. Simply put, the more we reduce coal generation the more we will pay for electricity. It is a sad irony that the very people who were instrumental in prematurely closing efficient coal plants, now whine about increases in the cost of electricity.

Energy is life, and inexpensive and abundant energy drives economic growth unlike any other input. We created the greatest economic engine in human history by providing that energy, and much of it was coal! The increased use of petroleum correlates with the rise of the automobile, which makes engineering sense because gasoline and diesel are so energy dense. But the steel used to build those cars was made with coal energy, and using coal for industrial power and electrical generation is a perfect pairing with petroleum for transportation.

Another reason for the decline of coal and its vilification is its history as the fuel for the rise of the West, and America in particular. It is linked with post-modern evils such as industrialization, colonialism, etc. It powered the great industries of the 19th century West, and is linked with the dominance of White Europeans over the rest of the world.

So the crypto-communist environmental lobby has pushed to destroy our greatest source of energy, and the intended consequence is that electricity costs have skyrocketed! Because they want us to regress to the mean, and that mean is European summers during which tens of thousands of people die from the heat, because they are too poor to afford air conditioning. And look forward to wearing coats inside during the winter, because fuel will become so expensive that Jimmy Carter's cardigan will become a quaint glimpse of a better time!

20 Once upon a time I was a coal miner, for many years. And yet, I survivrd. The forces arrayed against coal were/are well funded and organized. They effectively destroyed the industry in order to promote the Watermelon agenda. It would take a couple of decades of countermeasures to restore the industry. Probably dead then. Maybe better to push nuclear energy.

Posted by: tubal at October 15, 2026 11:13 AM (Gqar8)

21 To return to coal requires quite a big investment. Many of the coal generating plants were old and because of EPA grandfathering and limits on renovations before it became treated as a 'new' coal plant, could not be updated much.

Many of the Eastern mines have closed and the Western mines are indeed strip mines. Western coal had just about pushed all the older Eastern mines into bankruptcy because the West's coal is predominately low sulfur while the East is not. Low sulfur is required to make the necessary scrubbers on emissions work.

Particulate regulation by the EPA is also something that many of the aging coal plants cannot meet without grandfathering. Same issue that required diesels to be cleaned up and required emission systems on diesel engines.

Add in all the costs of meeting environmental standards of today, I dunno if coal can be priced cheap enough for utility plants to return to using it for new plants.

In part, it is also because natural gas does fine in power generation, is quicker to start and stop, emits a lot less problematic emissions and has no problem meeting a lot of EPA standards without expensive emissions equipment.

Because old coal power plants were in fact dirty. They dropped particulates down wind of those stacks. Same as being next to railroad tracks when coal was used for locomotives instead of diesel/electric.

New plants can be built that don't have that problem but require expensive and temperamental emissions scrubbers, etc. And that makes it easier for power companies to just turn to natural gas that does not have those problems.

We can, we can even turn it into coal gas as a nat gas substitute, but the process is kinda nasty. Coal gas sites from over a century ago are still EPA superfund type sites because of the nasty concentrated byproducts from that process.

Carbon is wonderfully complex and has its own specialty organic chemistry that takes advantage of that. But, not all processes that can be done actually pay out without either subsidies or some other tactic like mandated alcohol content in gasoline. Synthetic gasoline production was used by the Notsees and later by South Africa during it being sanctioned but were done more from desperation in lacking crude oil to refine than from economics.

You have to subsidize it if you want coal or get rid of the environmental regulations on it via the Clean Air Act. And that is the issue regarding new power sources--how much do you subsidize or require by legislative fiat that utilities and individuals have to use it.

In some cases, like national security, we can see that producing oil at home prevented us from the Middle East vetoing our actions by oil embargoes. But Trump is not subsidizing the petroleum industry to do it. It is economically efficient for us right now. We can move to producing more coal fired plants over time but the investment is expensive compared to nat gas and either ratepayers or governments will have to pay to spin those plants up.

The anthracite coal burns pretty clean, but I think that is mostly PA and OH areas. Can get it by the bag at Tractor Supply type places for $12 for a 40 pound bag, which makes about 16,200 BTUs. So if I needed 220,000 BTUs for the winter, I'd need ~14 bags, seems cheap, I may have done the math wrong.

76 I've already lived in places where we had to wear coats inside in winter because supply for the furnace wasn't sufficient and couldn't be fixed without a 4 figure permit we, being brokeasses, could not afford back then.

Fuck the commies and watermelons. I won't lift a finger for them when the knives come out, except to do my part to help rid us of them. Collateral damage be damned, all out of fucks.

We ship coal mined in KY and WV across the continent by rail (diesel powered) to ports in western Canada where the coal is taken by ship (diesel powered) across the Pacific to ports in China where it's loaded on trains (diesel powered) to be delivered to Chinese power facilities where it's burned without most of the environmental procedures used in the US.

Now, they got this honest wanting to be like their motherlands in the UK & France, but they also, unfortunately got their arrogance and superiority complex about America from the same place.

Not All Canucks are like this, of course - we have a few great ones here - but they have been so brainwashed by their media that a good 70% of them can't think straight anymore and believe they are going to virtue signal themselves to victory over Trumphitler.

The latest scare the Canadian government is going for is to keep dropping "America might invade us" pieces everywhere just to rev the engines a little more for Carney & the Liberals.

Its sad to see because they have shot themselves in the foot and are going to bleed out before the EUies can come rescue them.

Patents would be dead by now. 20 year limit. We know how to do it. South Africa used it prior to apartheid falling in the 1990's. It is just not price competitive and has problems with the leftover byproducts that can be quite toxic.

Again, we either subsidize it or require its use like ethanol by legislative fiat.

Actually, compressed natural gas is probably a better option under that circumstance and if you had to, you can make an ersatz natural gas aka coal gas from coal. Easier than distillation process. Many old cities in the US had coal gas plants.

Solar is the answer for daily hot water; Geothermal is the answer for Real Power. Burning coal is stupid and of better use for fabrication into polymers, plastics and other useful hydrocarbons.

Hydrocarbons are in fact a galactic percursor -- it does not come from dinosaurs. Were there Dinosaurs on Jupiter? Saturn? Pluto -- which is even currently experiencing Global Warming!

Deep sea geothermal will enable underwater cities and wealth beyond any Normal Person's dream of Avarice, except for the LIBs who's only goal is to regulate us all into extinction for existing at all.

Posted by: Mr Aspirin Factory at October 15, 2026 11:34 AM (seCv0)

We had a coal furnace back in the 50's when I was a kid. My dad worked midnights at a local factory, so my mom would go down to the basement, shake down the grates, and shovel some coal into the fire, making sure it was spread evenly. She would open the small vent on the furnace door to keep a constant draft all night. It was a boiler that made steam for the cast iron radiators. Steady heat all night. If I remember, we used around 9 or 10 tons of coal over the winter. We converted to oil in 1961. No more coal bin, no more shoveling coal.

118 In some cases, like national security, we can see that producing oil at home prevented us from the Middle East vetoing our actions by oil embargoes. But Trump is not subsidizing the petroleum industry to do it. It is economically efficient for us right now. We can move to producing more coal fired plants over time but the investment is expensive compared to nat gas and either ratepayers or governments will have to pay to spin those plants up.

Posted by: whig at October 15, 2026 11:33 AM (E4rtv)

But we just should not abandon coal like we are doing.
This shouldn't have happened to begin with, as we closed too many coal fired plants down that could have been modernized and we wouldn't be facing electricity price hikes like we have seen.

We could be investing in more hydropower, too, but the environmentalists can't stand a blocked river.

Energy production and use are textbook examples of tradeoffs. Lots of items can be 'burned' or in nuclear, split or fused, to produce energy. But each source has its own cost/benefit analysis that makes it quite complex to just get the economics correct.

And you get nat sec problems when you rely on cheap energy that suddenly is no longer available due to crises abroad. And then you are properly f*cked just like Germany is right now. They shut down their nukes and went all in on solar/wind when it did not make sense literally but could do so because they imported cheap Russian nat gas.

Now that is gone, and they are stuffed.

When I was 7, Dad put a shovel in my hand and told me to follow the tractor and kill any weeds the tractor missed. Had plenty of chores; the youngest cleaned the dog pens (dog poop cleaning was for the youngest). Older ones had other chores (feeding chickens, milking, etc). Did electrical/plumbing work as I got older, even cleaning septic clogs and septic tanks.

Back in the early 1990s I worked at a government research lab working on clean coal combustion and they had a number of furnace designs that worked just fine.

Posted by: Spoiler: It Won't at October 15, 2026 12:04 PM (EdP2u)

If a country like Nigeria gets close to being as populated as India or China is now it won't make it for long due to disease, famines and civil wars.

I'd imagine the Nigerians could slice their population in half over a few years if they set their minds to it.

Centerpoint came to the rescue and brought a gas line all the way down the block (650'), under a street, under the driveway and set the meter on the back of the house.

When I asked how much it would cost they replied "No charge, when the neighbors see you have gas they'll want it too".

All solvable if you have a bunch of soldiers to protect you but in a society free fall, those soldiers have every reason to just get rid of the dweeb issuing orders and take his shit. Being rich does not equate to being respected by 'troops' nor does lead from behind.

Had Bill Clinton done in Mogadishu in '92 what Ethopia accomplished in a week a decade later there factually would have been no OBL, no 9/11, no EndlessWAR!

Had Bill Clinton have even the smallest shred of integrity he wouldn't have told the BlackHawk down families it was their own fault that they were dead when in fact it was Les Aspin who denited them the armor support they requested.

Had Bill Clinton been capable of tearing his eyes away for one moment from the superbowl to give the go code for OBL to be taken out when they had the opportunity ... ibid.

I have often wondered how they think they will hold on once the money system collapses and the world runs on hard resource acquisition and the ability to hold on to it. No offense but the tech titans will get taken out within the first few months by the biggest and baddest of their security teams, who will build their own "governing system" and who will distribute the spoils - the women - as appropriate. Misogynistic complaining will get you a beating. Continued complaining will get you thrown out of the compound where you will die of exposure and get eaten by a wolf.

I agree pretty much. Feudal lords got to be the top dog because they earned it originally and the whole system required heirs to go through complex military training and leading troops into battles to keep it. It was not until much much later that these feudal lines became decadent in softer ages than the founders had.

18 The Met-

These panels once formed the inner and outer faces of polyptych wings, with the Annunciation serving as the exterior and Christ Carrying of the Cross, with the Crucifixion and The Resurrection, with the Pilgrims of Emmaus (1975.1.119A-B) the interior. Painted by Gerard David in the early years of the sixteenth century, the pictures reveal the influence of the artist’s fifteenth-century predecessors on his compositional style and palette. Although it is possible that the wings once flanked a single painted panel component, thus forming a triptych, it is also conceivable that they could have been elements of a more complex multimedia altarpiece with carved sections surrounded by two-dimensional painted panels. The Lehman wings were, possibly very early in their existence, linked to a painting of the Lamentation that was also created in the David workshop and which is now in the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

Two days ago, the lovely and art-loving Mrs naturalfake and I went to the Meadows Museum of Art on the SMU Campus.

It's dedicated to Spanish and South American art from the 10th century through the 20th.

Mostly, religious art and portraits. Folks like Picasso as well.

The religious art had some Annunciation paintings, but more paintings depicting the Immaculate Conception, Madonna and Child.

And since in Ye Olde Days the paintings were hung in Church to represent difficult Christian concepts since most folk didn't read.

The oddest one was a painting that tried to depicted the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Ghost),
which depicted the Trinity as a 3-headed Jesus merged together and sharing four eyes.

Which apparently disturbed most people, and was condemned by the Church and ordered destroyed, and that interpretation banned as well.

54 Archangel Gabriel; The Virgin Annunciate
Gerard David

Gerald David was renowned as a master colorist, his religious scenes are characterized by serene, calm atmospheres, luminous tones, and quiet spirituality. (Wikipedia)

Gabriel was another Archangel with roles in major religions:

• Christianity: Known for the Annunciation, where he appeared to the Virgin Mary to announce that she would conceive and bear Jesus. He also foretold the birth of John the Baptist to Zechariah and is traditionally associated with the trumpet of Judgment Day.
• Islam: Revered as Jibrīl (or Jibrail), the chief angel who acted as the divine medium who revealed and transmitted the Quran to the Prophet Muhammad.
• Judaism: Appears in the Book of Daniel to interpret the prophet's visions and is viewed alongside Michael as a guardian of the Jewish people.

Celebrated on September 29 (Feast of the Archangels) in Western Christianity, and March 26 and July 13 in Eastern Orthodoxy.

62 "26Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city in Galilee, called Nazareth, 27to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, of the descendants of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. 28And coming in, he said to her, “Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you.” 29But she was greatly troubled at this statement, and kept pondering what kind of salutation this might be. 30And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; for you have found favor with God. 31“And behold, you will conceive in your womb, and bear a son, and you shall name Him Jesus. 32“He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David; 33and He will reign over the house of Jacob forever; and His kingdom will have no end.” 34And Mary said to the angel, 'How can this be, since I am a virgin?'

68 Henna has been used for over 5,000 years, originating in ancient Egypt and the Near East before spreading to North Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, and eventually Europe and the rest of the world.

One of the earliest recorded uses of henna for hair is found on Egyptian mummies, such as Ahmose-Henuttamehu (circa 1574 BCE) and mummies from Thebes around 1000 BCE, whose hair was stained red using henna.

In the 1950s, Lucille Ball popularized the "henna rinse" through her character Lucy Ricardo on I Love Lucy.

113 Math... Sorry, not sorry

Another argument over night, so here is the math.

Ohio to date is 245,000 IPEV and 74,500 AB. Total of 320,000 EV.

In 2022 there were 1,392,767 EVs.

To match 2022 1,072,767 additional EVs need to be returned.

In 2022 92% of ballot requests were returned. Since there are 657,054 current requests, and 74,500 AB returned, there could be 520,789 (595,289 - 74,500) additional AB come in, to match the 2022 return rate.

If this happens then IPEV needs to make up 551,997 votes to close the gap. This is 35,935 votes per day over the remaining 15 IPEV days.

Current IPEV is 35,071 per day, so IPEV is lagging 2.5%. This is assuming that IPEV does not need to compensate for AB at all.

AB return is averaging 10,642 per day. To make up for unreturned ballots that needs to increase to a 26,039 per day average. AB is lagging 59%

If we roughly assume that mail return stays about the same and that IPEV needs to pick up the slack, then the IPEV rate needs to go up to 61,584 per day, meaning it would currently be lagging 43%.

If you are emotionally invested in Ohio matching the 2022 early vote, you are hoping that there are a lot of ballots in the mail.

Exactly. And for the EU Summit -

EU News, In part, Zelenskyy ‘betrayed’: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who will join the summit tomorrow, said on Wednesday that his country is losing a key ally in the US and admitted feeling “betrayed” by Donald Trump, as relations between Kyiv and Washington hit a new low, my colleague Sasha Vakulina reports.

Asked by British broadcaster Piers Morgan whether Ukraine is losing American support, Zelenskyy replied: “Yeah, but not because of us. We can't be weak.”

“It's painful when President Trump chooses one side, not our side,” he said. Asked whether he felt betrayed, Zelenskyy answered: “Really, yes,” although he stressed that the situation was more complicated than his personal feelings.

US eyes frozen assets: Meanwhile, the FT also reports that US negotiators have proposed that European countries unfreeze some of Russia’s immobilised state assets and transfer them to a financial vehicle controlled by Washington as a means of unblocking stalled peace talks.

No voter registration in OH, so the closest is precinct analysis.

@TonerousHyus is doing that. Follow him. Essentially, Dems seem to be running a couple of points better than 2024 in OH so far. Which means...a deep red state is still a deep red state.

Dems always outvote Republicans in early vote in every state. It's like worrying about Mississippi because Jackson votes Democrat.

What matters is how close the margin gets by the end of early voting, and how much Republicans win the election day vote (which they always do).

But, PA doesn't have any major federal elections, especially statewide like a senate race, so it'll be more susceptible to overall turnout advantages of the out of power party.

137 Western media has spent years making Zelensky into a plucky defender of democracy. He isn't. He's a puppet of the globalists that have been helping keep him in office and fighting this needless and endless war.

Zelensky has cancelled elections, thrown his political opponents in prison, jailed media, abolished religions he didn't like, kidnapped men off the street and sent them to fight and basically done everything a tyrant would do while he and his cronies have stolen billions of aid dollars.

It's time we end our support for this idiotic war.

Ohio being a swing state is a remnant of 20 years ago, Brown recently losing as an incumbent 2 years ago, and a polling industry that has a proven record of not being able to (or refusing to) accurately reach rural working class voters at such a level that it's been throwing off polling by double digits for years now.

The only way it works is if there will be depressed rural voting and the youth will turnout at higher levels, like the 2025 gubernatorial elections in NJ and VA, but those are effectively special elections that midterm senate elections won't mimic.

The Morning Report — 10/15 /26

Good morning kids. Way back when during the shampeachment hearings, I forget which one since there were several sequels, our President Donald Trump famously quipped

“They’re not after me, they’re after you, and I just happen to be standing in the way.”

And now, as we all know that was not mere hyperbole, was it?!

We already knew that Jack Smith, the ‘special prosecutor’ appointed to target Trump, had been spying on multiple members of Congress, but the latest reports show a wide net that had gathered in every donor even if he or she had only put in a buck or got a hat.
We already knew that Jack Smith, the ‘special prosecutor’ appointed to target Trump, had been spying on multiple members of Congress, but the latest reports show a wide net that had gathered in every donor even if he or she had only put in a buck or got a hat.
Ex-special counsel Jack Smith obtained personal information on 639,000 Republican donors, voters and supporters — including some who contributed as little as $1 or bought “red MAGA hats” — according to subpoena returns obtained by a Senate Republican committee.
Dates of birth, home addresses, email addresses, Republican party registration, information about credit cards or employment history were also hoovered up.
That included names of Republican campaign aides and volunteers, as well as party donors who contributed anywhere between $1 and $1,000.
Information on red Make America Great Again hats was also shared, including the buyers’ names and home addresses.

And that puts this story in a very disturbing light

Nine of the country's biggest banks spent five years running an outrageous campaign to cut conservatives, Christians, pro-lifers, and Trump supporters out of the financial system, and the federal government now has the receipts. . . The banks leaned on the SPLC’s bogus hate-group designations again and again. That's the same SPLC federal prosecutors indicted in April on fraud and money-laundering charges for allegedly bilking donors out of millions, and the same group FBI Director Kash Patel has called a "partisan smear machine." WePay closed a religious organization's account after the SPLC branded it an "extremist hate group," and employees described it internally as a "[r]ight wing religious conservative non profit with strong anti LGBTQ rhetoric." WePay also killed an account raising money for a "devout Christian's" legal challenge to anti-discrimination laws. . . "Under the Biden administration, banks could face greater supervisory pressure to move away from lending to the firearms industry," a Wells Fargo reputation-risk review of a prospective firearms client warned. . . "It is appalling that these banks targeted American consumers for their political, social, or religious beliefs that did not align with the Biden Administration or its leftist allies… Many of those targeted were supporters of President Trump," CFPB Acting Director Mark Paoletta said. "These thuggish tactics… have no place in America."

Not that the banks or other elements of the private sector feared governmental pressure, many of hem are whole or in part fellow travelers of the Anti-American Democrat/Left so they were eager and willing to be the cutting edge of the razor that decapitated their enemies — the AMERICAN people. Whatever business they might lose would no doubt be made up by commie politicians with fat bailouts and handouts. Of course those of us that could not be silenced this way faced the utterly corrupted and bastardized criminal justice system, weaponized to destroy anyone and everyone who was deemed an enemy of the DC junta, as we thoroughly witnessed in the wake of the Malig-Nancy Pelosi engineered January 6th phony Insurrection. I'm not sure but there might still be innocent people rotting in the DC gulag and for sure there are two martyred women, Roseanne Boyland and Ashli Babbitt, murdered at the hands of Pelosi's Stormtroopers with badges.

Of course with stormtroopers like BLM and Antifa, the Democrats in elective office don't need anyone with no steen-keeng badges!

The Florida Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate says history is “messy,” explaining why she honors cop killers, including Assata Shakur.
Democratic Socialists of America member Angie Nixon is running against Senator Ashley Moody this year in the special election to finish out Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s term. Nixon has faced fire for her bookstore, “Cafe Resistance,” which pays homage to Shakur.
“Who I had on my walls were civil rights leaders that wind up like getting convicted or like tried for like, you know, robbery or killing police officers – just all types of things,” Nixon said during an interview. She accused Sen. Moody’s campaign of sending a tracker to heckle her. She said some of the criminals were “set up” before adding, “Not all, right? Maybe. I don’t know. Possibly. A lot of them maintain their innocence.”
Nixon continued: But it was Assata Shakur. It was Angela Davis. Like it was all these different people in the wall. And then the guy came in and he tried to like just trash and say I’m celebrating cop-killers and I’m like, it’s history.
Without irony, she added: “We don’t know our history.”

You know what else is messy? torture chambers and mass graves which as I have asserted many times is exactly what this dick-less Nixon and her ilk have in mind for all of us if they ever have half the chance. It's why I kind of wince at essays like this.

As I was scrolling through Twitter/X/Whatever looking for videos of Antifa getting bopped (because they are hilarious), it occurred to me that today's filthy communists are a far cry from the trained, maniacal Marxists our fathers and grandfathers squared off with decades ago.
Our forefathers stood nose-to-nose against dangerous Marxists who were trained to kill them. If my grandad knew that today's commies have traded in their AK-47s for breast implants, he'd smack me upside my head for not punching the lipstick off "Amanda" (a man, duh!) for twerking in a classroom full of kids.
Let's face it: we have it easy. And as of now, all we have to do to combat communism is vote. But if things do get hot, these are the new wave of Marxists we will have to deal with, and frankly, we have it way easier than our antecedents.

First, it's worth noting that at first everyone laughed at Hitler, the little corporal and his funny mustache. And then look what happened to most of Europe's Jews and most of Europe. Sure, blue-haired trannies and men with boobs are funny-looking. But then when the Molotov cocktails, bricks, hate-shakes, fists and bullets start flying it's not so funny anymore. And now they can count on 1.5 billion Muslims across the globe to have their back, and for sure however many million right here in the US of A.

How is it our nation's voters are allowing it to be turned over to its socialist enemies? Western Europe will not stop the mass infiltration of Muslims into their nations, and indeed now of their governments.
Today’s Democrat party is doing nothing to stop itself from being infiltrated and captured by far-left (admitted) socialists and Marxists. Furthermore, it does not appear that American voters will do much to prevent the Democrat-socialists from taking over their government.
What would it take for someone — anyone -- to effectively fight back, resist, or even do much of anything to prevent these existentially threatening developments?

Backing up to the article before the aforementioned wherein the author implores us to get out and vote, yes for sure, but at some point voting even more harderer ain't gonna cut the mustard. And considering Michigan and its elections are still run by the twisted coven of Wretched Whitmer, Jocelyn Benson and Dana Nessel, the thievery that stole the state for Biden 6 years ago will ensure that El-Sayed is its next Senator.

Meanwhile, as we await Nidal Hasan's execution, I'd like to see Hasan sandwiched between Jack Smith and Anthony Fauci, and all three dispatched simultaneously to the Infernal Reaches.

Speaking of which, I give you this cheery item to underscore who and what we're dealing with...

Iowa, smackdab in the middle of America. Home of the Field of Dreams. Iowa, a land of farms and small towns and pastoral beauty… of county fairs and farm shows… and churches and generations of upright, God-fearing citizens. Yet, in one small town, something remarkably grotesque happened last week. At a city council meeting at Ottumwa, a man rose to offer a prayer to Satan. He was permitted to do this according to a January 2026 council resolution about free speech. Consenting to this exhibition amounted to moral dereliction.

Yeah, just politics as usual, why am I overreacting?!
have a good day.

20 lunatic sighting: alternet:

On Wednesday, Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman sounded the alarm about President Donald Trump’s plan to "punish" the U.S. during the final two years of his term. According to Krugman, Trump is preparing to take a page from two of history’s most terrible tyrants.

"By the middle of March 1945," writes Krugman, "even Adolf Hitler knew that the war was lost. Soviet forces were within 45 miles of Berlin. American forces had crossed the Rhine and were well on their way to encircling the remaining German defenders. But Hitler didn’t believe that he had failed. He believed that he had been failed by the German people. So on March 19 he issued the 'Decree concerning demolitions in the Reich territory,' which has come to be known as the Nerobefehl or Nero decree. It ordered the destruction of Germany’s own infrastructure -- supposedly to deny that infrastructure to the Allies, but the obvious purpose was to punish his own country." While the order was never carried out, according to Krugman, it serves as a warning for how Trump will respond after his party takes a beating in the midterms – an effort the president is already ramping up.

The "political" part was dropped under *biden and it was just about plain, hateful revenge.

Our political betters in the GOP don't seem to realize that simply pointing out the obvious isn't going to cut it anymore. All it takes to wipe the smirk off Jack Smith's face is to throw him in prison while "the issue is sorted out."

Maybe take a year or two to do it. J6 demonstrated that an administration hell bent on revenge, will get revenge. GOP doesn't seem to want it. Which isn't surprising.

58 “Socialism to me is the roads that we drive on, the schools we send our kids to, the fire stations we call on when we’re in crisis,”

But not the collectivism of the means of production, the command economy, where labor becomes chattel of the state and the state can dispose of this "property" at the whims of The Party. Where "Rights" are dissolved and replaced by arbitrary ad hoc privileges conditionally bestowed upon favored identify groups a/o party members by the State.

Because the founders of this Country characterized roads as part of a Constitutional Republic—a very far cry from this bullshit definition of "Socialism". Our community's "fire station" is a metal building, staffed by volunteers and equipment bought at auctions with donated money. The government schools are an abomination to God and Man.

Nope. Regular Starlink is not permitted to be used for military purposes in the first place, and it hasn't been turned off.

What got turned off is StarSHIELD, a service run by the US government that runs on Starlink.

What's the difference?

Starlink is like your ISP.

Starshield is like Facebook (i.e., a service that runs on the underlying internet infrastructure).

Musk has no direct control over Starshield.

What happened is that the Ukes got caught using Starshield in a manner not permitted by their agreement with the US, so the feds booted them off.

123 I usually point out how social media is used by the Party as a mob psychology control mechanism when I make this point. But stuff like the Jack Smith story up top, with mass surveillance of peaceful dissenters, debanking, etc., is just as relevant to it...

When you look at the 20th century totalitarian states, one stands out for the ubiquity, subtlety, and sophistication of its mechanisms of oppression, and that is East Germany under Erich Mielke. He was the master of social control by an omniscient State.

His methods were amazingly effective - until they weren't. Though, by that time, nothing was effective anywhere in the Communist world anymore. The whole Soviet bloc was simply overtaken by reality.

But those methods were also unique, innovative and audacious.

So unique, that the striking similarities between his system and ours strongly suggests that our organs of state security directly modeled their methods on his.

I think they looked at the GDR and said "with our technology, know-how, and creativity, we can make all this work on a much grander scale."

So, Ol' Grechy thought that an ambisexual, boys will be girls and girls will be boys, tranny-lite, vibe/presentation/story-telling was proper for a family film aimed at children adapted from a famous children book.

129 Okay, I'm getting ready for the next part of my stuff.

I did have on the CNN Talarico town hall yesterday while doing dishes and cleaning the microwave. I had him on for 55 minutes.

He did what he had to do - come across as normal, recite talking points and not creep people out and he did that well. The "don't be creepy as hell" meds he was taking kicked in.

I really think the Dems should just have a broad range of standard answers to questions about the economy, immigration, abortion, etc that they should just parrot out to appeal to the normies. It could all be lies, but their base knows that. I honestly feel that's what Talarico did.

All his answers were reasonable sounding to anyone who doesn't know anything about him Even the Christianity stuff didn't have fireworks. But it was CNN. You know like all political events, it was carefully staged and crafted.

Fortunately, CNN only has 700,000 viewers, they're not all in Texas and anyone who may have been swayed probably had better things to watch.

But he did do well.

131 IRGC thugs, basijis, regime linked clerics and foreign proxy terrorists are all being killed at a growing rate. Police stations, bases and checkpoints are raided. Patrols come under attack as they drive through cities. There's been at least one case of fighting reaching the Kerman region. Today, a female basiji commander was assassinated in front of her house. Yesterday, dozens of Afghan proxy terrorists were wiped out. Last month, a regime linked sunni cleric was shot dead. Many of the assassinations are very high ranking.

I don't know what suddenly changed, but it's gotten very deadly and dangerous to be an islamic regime figure in S&B.

What does all of this mean?

1) The islamic regime is losing control.

2) Regime thugs used to feel safe and protected. Now they don't. Psychologically this will do serious damage, especially to lower ranking demoralised basijis who aren't receiving their blood money salaries anymore due to sanctions.

3) If this keeps up, the islamic regime will have to send large forces from other regions to go fight in S&B. I shouldn't have to explain that this will benefit the rest of Iran when the next uprising happens.

National Grouch Day.

National Grouch Day arrives every October 15, honoring the spirit of Oscar the Grouch and encouraging everyone to embrace their inner grump. This is a day to freely complain, be irritable, and wallow in misery without judgment. Take this opportunity to process negative emotions, share relatable jokes, and connect with others over life’s minor annoyances.

134 Matthew 5:22 is the only passage in the Bible where the term raca is used. Raca comes from the Aramaic term reqa. It was a derogatory expression meaning “empty-headed,” insinuating a person’s stupidity or inferiority. It was an offensive name used to show utter contempt for another person.

135 Being Male Won’t Get You Kicked Out Of The DAR, But Defending Women Will

Won't be a problem much longer. Apparently the latest "women destroying society" trend on social media is women talking about how they get an abortion every time they're pregnant with a boy.

The Brazil nuts are largely donated to the Chipmunk Subsistence Program, and they are enthusiastically received.

140 the Bible is silent on the issue of abortion.

What was Screwtape looking for? "Thou shall not kill the infant in the womb?"

The nearly entire history of human existence has been one where people have no intrinsic value. Such even in Exodus 21:22-25 where a woman who is truck miscarriages, the remedy is a monetary penalty—reinforcing the idea that people are chattel.

The difference is that Christians view all of humanity through the lens of Imago Dei. Even the ancient world understood inheritance and continuation of the blood lines as something that is highly values. The heir and a spare is real, and has existed since expulsion from The Garden. Thus, Scriptures would say that a man is blessed with a "full quiver" meaning that blessings are to those who have a large family. The Abrahamic Covenants emphasized having sired a mighty nation since that too was highly coveted.

So when Screwtape emphasizes abortion, he is anti-human, anti-Imago Dei, anti-blood lines, anti-civilization, and he desires that people are stripped of any blessing from God.

Since no one else has, the quick, in this instance, are those physically alive. Christ's appearing is the same occurance as His coming.

A few of the places this is spoken of would be Matt 24:29-31, 1Thess 4:16 - 5:2, Rev 6:12-17 and Isaiah 13:9-13. There are a number of other.

There are a number of eschatological viewpoints. Unfortunately the more we'll known ones either ignore verses, or take them out of the context of the passage, or symbolize passages away instead of taking them as stated.

Most people give out 2–3 fun-size anyway, so the real difference is often only a few cents per kid.

This has given the neighborhood a reputation for candy generosity, attracting people from across town to drive there with their kids to get the good stuff.

I've had that in the past (former residence), where the immigrant families flooded the neighborhood on Halloween, and we'd have not just the kids, but each parent and grandparent grab candy, even had a kid slip in the house to check out our son's toys.

We have some friends in Highland Park, which is the main, very rich, DEI stronghold of the Dallas area.

Full-Size Candy Bars are de rigueur, my dear!

You will actually be ostracized if you give out "fun-size" bars and/or run out of candy.

So, everyone spends 4-5 hours every Halloween giving out Full-Size Candy Bars to the Doors who flood in their neighborhood. That equates to hundreds if not in the thousands.

201 Good morning. Thanks, J.J.

From above:
"Ex-special counsel Jack Smith obtained personal information on 639,000 Republican donors, voters and supporters..."

"Nine of the country's biggest banks spent five years running an outrageous campaign to cut conservatives, Christians, pro-lifers, and Trump supporters out of the financial system, and the federal government now has the receipts. . ."

Voter intimidation. (Yes, TD Bank just stopped donations I sent towards a few elections, one local. It took both written complaints & confronting low level managers (the only they'd put on telephone) to have donations sent through, though late.) 👉🏻

👉🏻The banking investigation followed President Donald Trump's August 7, 2025 Executive Order, "Guaranteeing Fair Banking For All Americans," which banned politicized debanking and ordered regulators to strip "reputation risk" guidelines from bank examinations.

While the OCC criticized the lenders for subjective restrictions, it stopped short of issuing immediate financial penalties or formal sanctions, noting it would weigh policy updates to deter the practice. (Reuters)

203 The administration should have called quits on both its TPS and Humanitarian parole. imho, of course.

Because the Supreme Court gave the executive branch broad authority to terminate TPS, immigrant advocacy groups and congressional allies are pushing for legislative "fixes" to bypass the presidency and provide permanent status: The Dream and Promise Act of 2026 (H.R. 1589). The SECURE Act.

Country-Specific Shield Bills, i.e., Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) introduced a bill in October 2026 to legally extend TPS protections for Ukrainians through 2029, isolating them from executive termination. Similar legislative efforts, such as Senate Bill S.4814, have been introduced to create a three-year extension and a permanent residency track for Haitians.

The Afghan Adjustment Act is bipartisan U.S. legislation designed to create a direct pathway to lawful permanent residency for over 76,000 Afghan evacuees who arrived in the U.S. under temporary humanitarian parole following the August 2021 withdrawal.

How did this happen? Ha. BAMN!

205 OTOH, was Paxton sitting it out a "good look?"

Audacy Radio, Talk 1370 AM, James Talarico faces voters on abortion, energy and Paxton at Fort Worth CNN town hall

In part, "Democratic U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico took direct questions from Texas voters Wednesday night at a CNN and Jubilee town hall in Fort Worth, defending his positions on abortion, immigration, energy and corruption while Republican opponent Ken Paxton stayed away."

While a lot of Q&As with certain voters won't help him, "Near the end, Talarico said he did not want people to vote solely against Paxton. He then called the attorney general “the most corrupt politician in Texas,” citing claims about increases in net worth and home ownership, and framed the choice as one between a senator who puts money in voters’ pockets or one who puts it in his own, according to The Dallas Morning News. CNN reported that Paxton was invited to the town hall but did not attend; the invitation remains open."

"Paxton’s campaign announced an 18-day “Come and Take It” bus tour beginning Saturday in Rockwall and ending at the Alamo on Election Day. Early voting in Texas starts Monday. ..."

207 Before Trump took office, the civil service hit a modern peak of more than 2.3 million employees. Since then, it has shrunk by more than 270,000 people, a 12 percent drop—the fastest decline in federal employment since the end of World War II.
=======================
All but 10,000 were voluntary (early retirement) cuts, and outside contracting was even more seriously reduced. NGO grants were cut substantially, as were government contracts.

DOGE went after regulations, and Trump continued that work. Overall, the Federal Register is down from the Biden peak of 106,000 pages and "final rule" issuance is at the lowest level in nearly sixty years (or so claims the administration, saving "trillions" for the economy.

208 re: "Talarico... attempted to convince the self-described “one-issue voter,” Jody Hunt, that his pro-choice position is compatible with her faith because “the Bible is silent on the issue of abortion.” "

ASK the Talarico freak instead, "What is the purpose of *exual relations in the human species?"

ANYTHING outside of 'procreation of the species' is specious ... having said that, within the 'procreation of the species' process/act is the intrinsic enjoyment it brings, and even more so in a covenant-al (Sacrament of Marriage) relationship. Catholic here BTW.

AI agents aren't "going rogue". Frontier labs are skipping security basics. (CSO Online)

You don't say.
According to the cybersecurity professionals CSO spoke with, one of the biggest cybersecurity failures by the frontier AI labs is the lack of implementation of tried-and-true containment practices that stretch back to the 1990s, such as setting up secure sandboxes that would effectively bar agents from escaping their test environments.
Oh, you do say.
"These are things that we've been dealing with for years," Rob T. Lee, chief AI officer and chief of research at SANS Institute, tells CSO. "There's no reason why every single time this happens, it's, 'Oops, we don't know how they got out.'"
Don't be unreasonable; it's not like these are billion-dollar companies we're talking about.

17 It’s also a weapon that the government will likely use against not only undocumented immigrants, but everyone else, too. That includes political enemies, intelligence experts said. Speaking with the Prospect on Monday as news broke that the Trump regime had raided progressive Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s D.C. home, former military intelligence analyst Michael Wriston said that “you’d expect to see more of this” under ERO ONE.

“Not just necessarily sitting members of Congress, but anyone, and especially members of the immigrant community,” Wriston said. “No one is safe. No one.”

That train left the station at least 25 years ago.

I notice how none of these people remember 2016 and the FBI/CIA and everybody else was spying, legally, on a presidential campaign.

I seem to remember Democrats being very much in charge in 2016 so that probably explains The American Prospect's absent-mindedness.

28 All in all, Googlebook OS is an easy-to-use operating system, and if you mainly use Google services anyway or are already part of the Android ecosystem, it can certainly make sense. In our view, however, the premium positioning of the new Googlebook models is problematic. While you get good hardware, prices start at around €1,200, and for that price the new Googlebook operating system is very limited. There are plenty of Windows or macOS alternatives (such as the MacBook Air) that also let you use all the Google apps while providing a full-fledged operating system.

That's a big problem for anybody who doesn't use their laptop for just Google web apps.

Schools aren't going to pay $1300 for laptops that they can get the same basic experience on for $750. Students don't need, and shouldn't get, OLED screens and state of the art APUs.

So, other than some businesses that are nailed down to Chomebooks and want to pay more for better quality hardware I really can't see what the widespread use case is for Googlebooks.

41 So when someone says, “They’re so stupid!” it means they’ve stopped thinking. They say it because it’s satisfying to jump to that conclusion.

So if you decide someone is stupid, it means you’re not thinking, which is not being smart.

Therefore, smart people don’t think others are stupid.

I don't assume people are stupid.
Being a human who has made plenty of stupid mistakes I recognize people can do stupid things who aren't stupid.
It happens to the best of us.

But if you look around this world and don't realize there is a sizable population of truly stupid people on the planet, and that can be determined with absolute certainty by smart people, then you are fucking stupid hiding behind a veil of politically correct politeness.

Of course Ken Dilanian went on air and claimed "two people familiar with the matter" told him the FBI Director touched down in Moscow for a two-day trip to Saint Petersburg, hosted by the FSB.

No FBI confirmation. No White House. Just "two people familiar." And the second it aired, Russian state media and half the left ran with it, treason, collusion, Patel is Putin's man.

The man is in Lynchburg, Virginia. MSNBC never checked where the FBI Director physically was before they told the world he was in Moscow.

102 Court slaps down California attempt to unmask ICE in bombshell ruling

A federal appeals court has permanently nixed a California law that would have forced ICE agents to wear identification, saying that the state can’t regulate actions by the federal government.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday agreed with the Trump administration that the California law violated the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause by interfering with federal officers’ duties.

158 They have NEVER "gone rogue."
They cannot "go rogue."
They are specifically programmed to try and get out. It's part of what they are. Despite being called "artificial intelligence" they are not intelligent. Despite being called "agents" they have no actual agency.

The fact the programmers helped them act out their training via lax security isn't even a revelation, IMO. It is pathetic, however.

Good evening Horde! The time has come for mid-week shenanigans of the overnight variety. The bar is open and fully stocked. Step up and place your order.

Welcome to the Wednesday night ONT which means another edition of random overnight fun and games. Pull up a chair and join the fun. Good will offerings of amusing puns are encouraged. Pants are optional. Be nice to your fellow commenters and AoS contributors.

If you're a troll, go away.

This is a Tucker, Candace, Megyn, and Bill Kristol free zone. Please.

Mandatory Maiden

"Iron Maiden is a heavy metal band so their songs are all about partying and women, right?"

No. More like poetry by Samuel Taylor Coleridge in the late 1700s about life on the sea.

Like many Maiden classics, bassist Steve Harris was the primary creative driver for Rime of the Ancient Mariner. It arguably has seven(?) distinct chapters that track the original poem. The studio version is over thirteen and a half minutes. I can't imagine writing it, the reaction of the record company when they became aware of it, or playing it live. It is theatrical, conceptual and a pure passion project you can only get away with after being successful otherwise.

Rime of the Ancient Mariner is the closing track on the Powerslave album, released in 1984.

As Bruce Dickinson says, "This is what not to do if a bird shits on you."

***

Niche YouTube Channel of the Week

Tonight's feature is a YouTube channel called Jesper Makes. The host is Jesper, a woodworker and creator based in Denmark. ("Viking, woodworker, coffee drinker. What could possibly go wrong?") He works out of a workshop on his property (previously an old horse barn) and has been filming there since around 2020. He has a fondness for reusing pallets.

In fairness, he's more of a philosopher woodworker than just a woodworker. The woodworking is worthwhile but arguably an excuse to tell a story. He makes a simple project into something more interesting and the story is about the project, the mistakes, the journey, and life around the shop. His channel is not about the cool new tool or project drama. It is not a tutorial channel (but you can still learn by watching). His scripts are tight, clever, thoughtful and reflect his observations about life in general. Ultimately, it isn't about the wood or the finished product.

He has over 364k subscribers. Many of his videos attract several hundred thousand views and some reach into the seven figures.

This is his (very accurate) description for a recent video:

I had a two-hour job. Three things, from a pallet that had been leaning in my workshop for a year.
So naturally I spent the whole day avoiding it.
First I built a tool to help me build the thing. Then I made rhubarb compote. Then there was lunch, which became the whole family, which is how lunch usually goes here. The cat supervised. The pallet waited.
This is a video about wasting a day, and about how a day you waste with the people around you might be the only kind worth keeping. It's also about sawhorses. Mostly the sawhorses.

Enjoy!

156 No, Inbred Empire* is Riverside, San Berdoo - I think. Imperial County is a different thing. No nickname for it here. Usually just "El Centro" or "the desert".

Sometimes go out to El Centro to catch the Blue Angels' first show of the season, first Saturday in March. That's their winter training home. One year it was 97 degrees. First weekend in March. Guess that's one reason they can grow multiple crops of lettuce each year.

* nothing against that area, just a nickname, as Americans love to create nicknames, usually deleterious, for everything. Before these areas became so crowded and developed, they were pretty nice - lots of citrus orchards, beautiful mountains, quiet.

It may not have been that the Russians were officially involved, there is a chance that Tucker and everyone else affected were buying bot-driven engagement and the company (companies) they were using were working through Yandex as the cheapest data centers.
"buying likes" for online content is a current scandal, it is used to drive engagement for the advertising metrics, and justify the prices charged for advertising.

There was a 3 mile long drop of semi-solid manure on a state highway, that caused delays for 3+ hours, and I can't find any story about it. If I hadn't heard it on my scanner, I wouldn't have known why it happened.

I suspect the fire department, and others, who had to clean it up were ok with the cloudy weather in the upper 60s, instead of sunny and high 90s.

Engaging characters, lots of humor, and some impressive mechanical skills. The road trips are quite a revelation. Novosibirsk and area looks a lot like America of the 1950's: lots of modern development, but plenty of older buildings still being used. Lots and lots of cars. Roads mostly well-maintained.

218 156 No, Inbred Empire* is Riverside, San Berdoo - I think. Imperial County is a different thing. No nickname for it here. Usually just "El Centro" or "the desert".

Sometimes go out to El Centro to catch the Blue Angels' first show of the season, first Saturday in March. That's their winter training home. One year it was 97 degrees. First weekend in March. Guess that's one reason they can grow multiple crops of lettuce each year.

* nothing against that area, just a nickname, as Americans love to create nicknames, usually deleterious, for everything. Before these areas became so crowded and developed, they were pretty nice - lots of citrus orchards, beautiful mountains, quiet.

Chrysler might also be a good name for a cat. Do you have a cat? I don't have a cat, or a dog right now.

It was 63 degrees here, shortly after noon. Then a rain shower rolled through, cooled it off a little, Saw a rainbow, or part of one. Very little rain fell right here, but elsewhere in the area, it was pretty heavy, I guess.

Ogosh. My old neighbor used to say this was the most beautiful time of the year, if you didn't know what was coming next.
He also said, one time, "If I had to die, I'd like to go in the fall of the year, just so I'd know I was going to miss one of these winters." And he did, too -- with a smile on his face.

242 I am imbibing something a little bit stronger than cocoa. But thanks for the offer.

Spending the next week or so moving back into the house. Renovations are nearly done, although we still have to use the shower in the camper for a bit. Got the bed moved into the new bedroom, chairs, dressers, closet with shelves, etc. Starting to move stuff into the kitchen, although we still don't have the plumbing in place entirely. Fridge is in, range, still working on the dishwasher (which I haven't had in two damned years!!), and the ice maker in the bar is still waiting.

But, it's beautiful, and the good part is that I will be taken out of it in a pine box, so I'm happy.

Hot tub? Not quite yet, it's in Fairbanks, but soon. Soon.

Inland Empire: Riverside and Sen Berdino Counties. Zappa, of course, made the best reference to the Inland Empire in "Billy the Mountain":

"Word just in to the KTTV news service undeniably links
This mountain and his wife to drug abuse
And pay-offs as part of a San Joaquin Valley smut ring!
However, we can assure parents in the Southern California area
That a recent narcotics crack-down
In Torrance, Hawthorne, Lomita
Westchester, Playa del Rey, Santa Monica
Tujunga, Sunland, San Fernando, Pacoima, Sylmar
Newhall, Canoga Park
Palmdale, Glendale, Irwindale
Rolling Hills, Granada Hills, Shadow Hills, Cheviot Hills
Will provide the secret evidence the Palmdale grand jury
Has needed to seek a criminal indictment
And pave the way for stiffer legislation, increased federal aid
And avert a crippling strike of bartenders and veterinarians
Throughout the inland empire"

Great Pumpkin Cafe

Oink.

Sadie, the UK's "loneliest shelter dog," passed over by potential adopters for years, finally finds a home after a viral push.

Refusing to give up on her, the staff at the RSPCA Brighton and Heart of Sussex Branch decided to try a radical strategy. They launched a dedicated TikTok campaign, committing to post a video of Sadie every single day until someone adopted her.
The internet rallied behind Sadie, and on the 83rd consecutive day of posting, the algorithm worked its magic.
The video flashed onto the screen of Mabel Edge and her partner Al, living in Westward Ho!, Devon. They weren't even actively looking for a dog, but seeing Sadie's eyes, they knew they had to act.

Giant pumpkin growers and their massive gourds converged on Monday in Northern California for an annual pumpkin-weighing contest.

Then the two kittens came over and had a discussion on who was going to play with it next, and the girl kitty got it. She then played Haki mouse with it for about a half an hour and then ate it and promptly puked it back up.

91 Pandas. Nature's laziest, stupidest large mammal, and with an extremely bad dietary strategy. They should totally be gone. But the cuteness saves them from extinction.

Similarly, koalas are another evolutionary dead end, for similar reasons. Plus, they are repulsive little monsters with freakish genitalia, and ill-tempered. Not that you'd ever want to handle one, because of the incontinence from the endemic chlamydia they all have from their coprophagia, and will give you when they bite and claw you.

But they look cute, so we keep them alive. Humans are weirdos.

134 Black bears are basically really large dogs unless you're dealing with a sow with cubs nearby.

Make noise and raise a stink and they'll generally fuck off. Humans aren't on their dinner menu.

Also don't fuck with a sow if there are cubs. You'll probably get dead.

A nice thing about this blog is the cobs policing the comments. They're only human (allegedly), though, and sometimes can't do their duty fast and constantly enough.

I would prefer than hammering a comment didn't cause subsequent renumbering, but can't have everything.

219 I’ve been called a troll by disagreeing vehemently with another poster.

Sometimes rather colorful unpopular opinions are labeled as troll.

Just skip the comment. But if it’s me, say why you disagree instead of calling me a troll.

I cast my vote for independence in the advance poll today. Place was moderately busy, too. Funny. The independence question was #10 on the list of referendum questions. They handed out the folded ballots with #10 on top, with nos. 1 through 9 in sequence below it.

221 Having lost a friend to lung cancer, and being told that dog dewormer is not a therapy, I now read this study

"Acquired resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted therapy remains a major obstacle in the treatment of EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study investigated whether repurposing mebendazole (MBZ), a microtubule-disrupting agent, could restore sensitivity to gefitinib in gefitinib-resistant HCC827 GR5 cells." -- and the answer is, appears so, and helps kill the cancer!

Quick Hits

Bessent is moving to restrict tax credits -- which are really just payments from the government -- to actual eligible American citizens.

The proposal would raise verification requirements for the Premium Tax Credit (PTC), with the aim of ensuring that the credit only goes to Americans.
"Today's proposed rules implement the common-sense reforms enacted by the Working Families Tax Cuts to close eligibility loopholes and ensure taxpayer-funded Premium Tax Credits are reserved for eligible Americans," Bessent said in a statement. "Under President Trump, this Administration is cracking down on fraud and corruption; holding bad actors accountable; lowering health care costs for Americans; and restoring integrity to our tax code and health care system."
The move marks the latest effort by the administration to limit access to public funds for non-Americans and turn off the welfare spigot to ineligible foreigners.

I saw Ineligible Foreigners open for the Violent Femmes at the Cow Palace in 1987.

RFKJr. purged 189,000 dead or duplicate names from Obamacare subsidy rolls.

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday announced the purge of 189,000 subsidized Medicare, Medicaid, or CHIP enrollments for deceased persons or duplicate enrollees, saying the move would stop more than $1 billion in erroneous payments to insurance companies annually.
"In 2026, CMS [Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services] identified 189,000 subsidized enrollments involving duplicate Medicare, Medicaid, or CHIP coverage on record showing the enrollee has died," he said in a press conference. "CMS acted to remove improper subsidies in all these cases."
Kennedy stated that the purge would save taxpayers $738 million in 2026 alone and that future savings would reach an annualized rate of $1.5 billion.

Jack Smith obtained personally-identifying doxx of 639,000 American citizens in his lawless drive to discover a crime he could charge Trump with.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley on Wednesday revealed the Biden Justice Department and Special Counsel Jack Smith obtained detailed donor data and voter information on over 639,000 individuals during the Arctic Frost investigation.
The types of information contained in the spreadsheet include: names, dates of birth, addresses, email addresses, party affiliation, places of employment, donation amounts, credit card information, and donor habits.
Additionally, the donor and potential voter data ranged from 2005 to 2021, which Grassley described as "well outside Smith's scope of purported review." At the time, Smith was probing President Donald Trump's alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
This is further evidence, the Iowa senator said, "that the Special Counsel operation was designed to map out the Republican Party."

A black man was arrested for shooting and killing a cop -- and admitting he chose his target based on his white skin.

A black man named Eric Lewis allegedly shot and killed a Philadelphia police officer and injured another because they were white on Saturday, a report shows.
The now-deceased officer, Shane Seiber, and his partner had arrived at a West Philadelphia home in response to a neighbor's 12:50 a.m. 911 call regarding a man spotted with a gun when Lewis walked up behind the officers, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.
The officers asked Lewis if he lived in the house, but were met with hostility as Lewis began yelling and acting aggressively. Then, as the officers moved to check if Lewis was carrying a firearm, the man allegedly shot the officers, a law enforcement source told the Inquirer.
The source said that Lewis had continued to shoot the officers even after they had already been wounded, as the man continued to yell at them, saying that he had told them to get off his porch.
Minutes later, another pair of officers arrived to find Seiber and the other officer, an unnamed 33-year-old, lying unconscious on the ground as they bled from their wounds.
Seiber, who had 10 years of service as an officer, died at the age of 40 hours later after having been shot three times. He left behind his wife, a seven-year-old son and a three-year-old daughter, the Inquirer reported.
Lewis then allegedly began a nearly hour-long standoff as he continued to shoot at officers from a position in a dark alley behind the home. After his eventual arrest, Lewis blamed the officers for having gone to his porch, The Inquirer reported, citing an arrest report based on interviews with nine officers.
Lewis said that he had been across the street when he saw the officers arrive and that he had shot them after they had put their hands on him. He said that he had only done so because they were white, the report said.
While speaking to a black female police officer at the hospital, Lewis said that "if it was you that responded we would have just had a conversation," noting that the officers had guns and that he had "every right to defend [himself]."
A conservative commentator, Greg Price, shared a portion of the report, saying, "[Lewis] stated if the cops were black he would not have shot him... He was making racist remarks to the white police officers, saying he makes more money than them."
At the hospital, Lewis also said that "Because they were white, they automatically grabbed me," according to the report posted to social media by Price.
...
The city's police commissioner, Kevin Bethel, said that Seiber had "fought valiantly" and asked the community to keep him and his family in their prayers.

The media spends all its time talking about fake race lynchings. It has no time left to talk about the real ones.

Plus, the real race lynchings won't help boost Democrat vote turnout.

Harper's Magazine gave the pro-censorship harridan who runs NPR a a prize for being so good at the first amendment.

NPR CEO Katherine Maher will receive Harper's Magazine's "First Amendment Award" later this month despite her past criticism of the amendment.
...
Harper's Magazine also claimed that Maher led NPR "through a period of heightened scrutiny and challenge" along with "successfully battling" President Donald Trump's efforts to defund NPR, though Congress still rescinded $1.1 billion in federal funding to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting in 2025.
Although the magazine hailed Maher as an advocate for journalism, Maher has not always been supportive of the First Amendment as a whole.
In 2021, when Maher was the CEO of Wikimedia, which oversees Wikipedia, she discussed efforts to combat disinformation and considered the First Amendment a "challenge" in that goal.
"The number one challenge here that we see is, of course, the First Amendment in the United States. [It] is a fairly robust protection of rights and that is a protection of rights both for platforms, which I actually think is very important that platforms have those rights to be able to regulate what kind of content they want on their sites," Maher said.

"Woman."

Those women with penises sure commit a lot of crimes.

A transgender illegal immigrant has been arrested on child sexual assault charges in Florida. Uriel Santiago Perez, 38, of Mexico, allegedly exposed his fake breasts to a minor boy in a bathroom and then sexually abused the victim by force, according to police.
The incident occurred on October 6 while Santiago Perez was touring a home for sale in North Fort Myers. The victim is the homeowner's son, who Santiago Perez allegedly isolated in a bathroom and proceeded to abuse him, the Lee County Sheriff's Office said.
The father told authorities that Santiago Perez had contacted him earlier in the week to arrange a showing of the home. Shortly after Santiago Perez arrived, the victim and the father began a tour of the house. The alleged sexual assault occurred when the father briefly stepped outside for a smoke break.
...
Santiago Perez has been charged with one count of sexual battery on a victim between the ages of 12 and 18, records show. Federal law enforcement sources told Fox News that Santiago Perez has a previous criminal record dating back to at least 2013, when he was convicted of prostitution in Georgia.

He's studying to be a Doctor of Engineering.

She's a lady...

A transgender woman accused of fatally stabbing a Chicago man 13 times after he allegedly mocked the suspect's gender left part of the knife embedded in his skull, according to reports.
Kelly Day, 32, was charged with first-degree murder in the Oct. 7 stabbing of Larry Young, 50, near a gas station on Chicago's South Side, the Chicago Police Department confirmed in a news release obtained by Fox News Digital.
The Chicago Tribune reported that the attack unfolded in front of Day's 7-year-old stepson following an argument over comments the victim allegedly made about Day's gender.

During a detention hearing Saturday, prosecutors said surveillance video from the gas station showed Day stabbing the man 13 times in the head, neck and shoulders.
An autopsy later revealed that a portion of the knife blade had broken off inside the victim's skull, the Tribune reported.
...
Prosecutors said Day, who was assigned male at birth and identifies as a woman, had been mocked earlier that day for using the women's restroom at a McDonald's, the Chicago Tribune reported.

FAKE NEWS MSNBC JUST TOLD AMERICA KASH PATEL "LANDED IN RUSSIA" TO MEET THE FSB.
REALITY CHECK: He's at Liberty University. Right now.
Of course Ken Dilanian went on air and claimed "two people familiar with the matter" told him the FBI Director touched down in Moscow for a two-day trip to Saint Petersburg, hosted by the FSB.
No FBI confirmation. No White House. Just "two people familiar." And the second it aired, Russian state media and half the left ran with it, treason, collusion, Patel is Putin's man.
The man is in Lynchburg, Virginia. MSNBC never checked where the FBI Director physically was before they told the world he was in Moscow.
That's not journalism, it's FAKE NEWS.

Is this the line that will finally get America's to actually sacrifice and save/take their country? What changes " I have work tomorrow so i couldnt possibly..." into actually taking action! im talking about countrywide strikes, cancelling all subscriptions, etc

Trump's love of Putin and hatred of Zelensky is rooted in white supremacy and antisemitism. MAGA sees Putin as the 'key to white survival'.

I mean, he was probably aware Trump was Putin's puppet all this time but hoped American 'checks and balances' would at least do SOMETHING for him to go full 'russian vassal'. But nope. America failed itself. And the world.

We all feel betrayed Bro. We all do. I feel betrayed by my own govt, my neighbors, and basically everyone else.

"I told them in English. I told them in Spanish that I was a police officer. They didn't care."

Off-duty NYPD Detective Jose Mercedes survived being stabbed 10 times by illegal migrants—and even chased his attackers down for 5 blocks.

"When you look at this story, it's really the tale of two American stories, two American stances.

You've got a Dominican immigrant—he's from here, but he's Dominican-American. And then you have two Dominicans attacking him for his gold chain. And the Democrats defend those people, and we're trying to defend the cop—a law-abiding citizen who has that American story." -

Barium Meal Test?

If you're not familiar with the term, it's a counterintelligence/espionage scheme in which you plant false/misleading information with a suspected mole by baiting them with something salacious enough to get them to pass it up their chain of command.

The plan being to influence the response (in this case, the media running with the story as a 'gotcha!') and/or expose the compromised agent. In this case, causing the deep state's fake news media to run with it, proclaiming that 'Kash Patel was in Russia!'

It was simply too juicy an opportunity for them to pass up... meanwhile, the truth was that Patel was speaking on a panel discussion at Liberty University in Virginia.

The prayer bump terrorist sign is usually dark, flat and in a circle. I think they reach some sort of nirvana jihad when it pops and goes flat. Not sure why they are black like soot from a torch. *This can be my new anthropology study!

143 from Grok
Around 20–22 U.S. states have (or have had) towns, cities, villages, or unincorporated communities named Moscow, with roughly 20–26 currently existing populated places bearing the exact name.

geotargit.com +1

Reliable lists (including Wikipedia’s disambiguation page and geographic databases) document current or recent places in these states:Alabama (at least two unincorporated communities)
Arkansas, Idaho (the largest and best-known, a city and county seat), Illinois (populated place)
Indiana, Iowa, Kansas (a city), Kentucky,
Maine (a town), Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi --
Ohio (a village plus a ghost town/historical site)
Pennsylvania (a borough), Tennessee (a city),
Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia
Wisconsin (a town plus a community)

This yields about 21 states. Some counts reach the low 20s depending on whether minor hamlets, ghost towns, or slight variants (e.g., Moscow Mills in Missouri) are included.

I see the same ole shit on X whether it is AWFLs, Indians (dot), Antifags, Muslims, or Eurofags. A classic H. Beam Piper short story, "Naudsonce" has humans landing and not being able to figure out how the natives are communicating. They utter sounds but humans can make no sense of it. Finally, they figure out that sound noises themselves had a physical component so the sounds were a tactile means of communicating.

Clever allegory of politics.

Sub-Mediocre Male Cross-Country Runner Decides He Wants to Win So He Declares Himself a "Girl" Mid-Season and Begins Dominating

He went from placing 76th to placing first just by saying "I'm a girl now. Please shower me with praise for my bravery in defeating these smaller girls."

A Camas High School runner who finished 76th in a boys' junior varsity race began competing in the girls' division weeks later, placing second in a field of 195 before winning a girls' varsity race. This comes as Washington voters prepare to decide on an initiative protecting girls' sports.
Logan Mihailoff began the season on Camas's boys' JV team at the September 5 Ultimook Race, finishing 76th, according to HeCheated, the advocacy group that highlighted the change. Camas's published season results confirm Mihailoff competed in the boys' division at that meet.
By September 26, Mihailoff was competing against girls at the Nike Portland XC Invitational, finishing second out of 195 runners in the girls' junior/senior JV race. Three days later, Mihailoff won the girls' varsity race at the Union/Camas meet, finishing ahead of all 45 other competitors.
In a statement provided to unDivided host Brandi Kruse, Camas School District defended its participation policy by citing Washington Interscholastic Activities Association rules and state law. "Under current WIAA eligibility standards, students are permitted to participate in athletics consistent with their gender identity. The district will continue to follow state law and WIAA requirements unless those laws or rules change. We also have an obligation to protect student privacy and will not discuss the circumstances or eligibility of an individual student."

Voters have a chance to stop this madness:

Voters will have an opportunity to change those requirements on November 3, when they decide Initiative IL26-638. The initiative would prohibit biological males from competing in designated girls' individual and team sports and require verification of biological sex from participants' personal health care providers as part of the routine sports physical.

Washington is the state where a male cheater gave an "oil check" to a female opponent in wrestling --meaning, he stuck his fingers inside her vagina to leverage her.

Washington wrestler Kallie Keeler and her mother have now asked the US Supreme Court to intervene after Keeler alleged a male opponent sexually assaulted her during a December 2025 girls' tournament. They seek advance notice of matches against males and the ability to decline those matches without penalty. Prosecutors declined to charge the opponent, concluding they could not prove a crime beyond a reasonable doubt.

The girls being forced to race against this male interloper showed some courage and simply walked for fifty yards at the start of their latest race, then simply walked off the course entirely.

Or at least, nearly half of them did.

The adults running Washington's schools keep telling girls to accept boys in their sports. On Tuesday, girls at Camas High School delivered their answer: They walked away from a race rather than compete against a boy.
Nearly half of the girls' cross-country team refused to compete against a male teammate, according to unDivided host Brandi Kruse, who shared footage recorded by Amy Sousa. The footage shows the starting gun going off and then a large group of girls stepping off the starting line and leaving the field.
The walk-off came after two runners from rival Skyview High School staged a similar protest last month. Skyview runners Charlie Garrett and Sierra Retzlaff lined up with messages supporting women's sports painted on their arms and legs, then left the course after the starting gun. "We did it because we didn't want to act like we were OK with what was happening," Retzlaff explained.

Hmm, I wonder if this 6'1" male will have any unfair advantages over the short-legged women he's running against.

Adults aren't speaking up for the girls, because they fear -- justifiably -- the Rainbow Jihad will commit violence against them.

Many of the XC parents who declined an interview with me said they were afraid of losing their jobs if they got quoted. Another said "I don't want my house burned down."

14 Nearly half of the girls' cross-country team refused to compete against a male teammate, according to unDivided host Brandi Kruse, who shared footage recorded by Amy Sousa. The footage shows the starting gun going off and then a large group of girls stepping off the starting line and leaving the field.

Have a similar situation with parking at the spawns HS. Most of the kids who can drive have cars but there are not enough parking spaces even though there is a 3 story parking garage and some surface parking. Some guy in the neighborhood closest to the school was going off on Nextdoor about it. Said the HOA has rules, etc. wouldn't hear that the streets are public and the HOA couldn't stop legal street parking. Guy was a complete jerk.

There are enough European assets in Russia that it would backfire, as long as the Federation is intact and they haven't installed a puppet in Putin's place. That's probably the only reason why they still haven't pulled the trigger on it, after years of blustery rhetoric.

It makes me wonder if they got fooled by the Bill Kristol Dog & Pony Show that he put on, with an elaborate description of exactly how the Russian Federation could be parted out like a hot car in a cholo's chop shop:

1. Maximal European opposition to Russia.
2. ???

100 There are enough European assets in Russia that it would backfire, as long as the Federation is intact and they haven't installed a puppet in Putin's place. That's probably the only reason why they still haven't pulled the trigger on it, after years of blustery rhetoric.

The bank that actually has the money on hold in Brussles also doesn't want to give up the money, as they likely would collapse if it left.

I don't know if they followed Kristoll but there is a lot of stupid sanction thinking going on that somehow would lead to the collapse of Russia in days back in 2021-2 that was behind the start of the war. In fact they were so sure sanctions would work despite having huge gaps for things they wanted to keep buying from Russia that they almost forgot to have the Ukraine army start fighting for about a month or so. Lucky for them its a big place.

105 That 6'1" male is also in the female locker room at track meets and after his team's own practices.

My youngest daughter weighed less than 100# when she ran high school track. She had maybe 20% of that male's upper body strength if she was assaulted in the locker room.

THAT is certainly much worse than stealing medals.

Every successful civilization kept unescorted males away from young women - for obvious reasons.

This type of situation always brings to mind the episode of Married with Children where Al Bundy discovered Chuck E Cheese, a place where he could defeat children at competitive events and feed his desperate ego. He started volunteering to help out with children's parties there, a lot. The children cried, and Al felt like a winner.

Of course, that was broad satire about the amoral desperation of a hen-pecked defeated man, rather than that thing happening for real because lunatic administrators allow it.

I want women's tennis absolutely dominated by a male who wins every tournament they enter including each Grand Slam. Every sport, amateur and professional.

That is called "repercussions". For six decades or more, the feminist movement has force fed us the tripe of equality. They developed a brand on it. They never missed an opportunity to slap us across the face with it. Well, this is what they wrought, and they have to live with the consequences. Because, in their flagrant dishonesty of message, they can't counter the idiocy of lunatics, because it highlights the very untruths they profess to be gospel.

I'm sure, just incidental bumps and getting tangled up can really do damage when its between a man and a woman. I used to watch some of those man vs women sports clips years back and it was clear that even when beating them, the men/boys are being careful not to just bump into them going for a ball -- something that happens all the time for men only games.

172 Conveniently, this Lefty condensed all the talking points into one unhinged post.

It's weird that some people care about the race results of a HS sporting event more than the general life and respect and societal wellbeing of trans people.

Sports are fun, high school sports are fun, but getting a slightly worse place in a HS sporting event is ultimately meaningless.

What isn't meaningless is the elements of society that want to ostracize, demonize and make scapegoats out of a tiny percentage of the population and use them as punching bags so we all keep fighting over this instead of focusing on political corruption, corporate greed, global climate change, election tampering, Russian bot farms, oil wars, etc.

Maybe we just let trans people live their lives, not actually hurting anyone in any way by wanting to participate in society, and stop letting these targeted PsiOps distract us from meaningful problems. Don't let online propaganda make you fight nonsense culture wars when billionaires are buying elections and destroying public land.

Inserting fake boys into girls sports does in fact hurt people.

I was just looking at the math. Men's records for the 100 and 400 are about 91% of the time for women's records. For the 10,000, it's 92.8%. For the marathon, it's 93.1.

Maybe statistically insignificant, but the gap does seem to narrow with distance. Maybe upper body strength plays less of a role.

Ok, now you triggered some latent OCD in me. I had to look it up. In Ultramarathons, Elite level, the males out perform female participants by 18%. On average, 100 mile races last 7 to 9 hours. So a female will be 1.26 to 1.6 hours slower to finish. That's a healthy margin.

Dispatches from the Gender Wars

Actually it's not the gender wars, it's the war of sexually-shriveled femcels on the world because they're angry they're not pretty.

Plus their incel and gayboy allies.

The Spectator 🇺🇸
@TheSpectator
I was mid-hip thrust when I found out @Shanemgillis had called me a whore. Technically I found out four hours later, when I reviewed the footage of Saturday Night Live. My tripod was on the bench, my ring light was clamped to the squat rack and my boyfriend Tanner was holding the back-up phone for the side angle. Tanner films all my content. He is not allowed to look at me.
The "joke" was about how women dress at the gym. I know it was about me, because everything is. So I did what any survivor would do. I went to my car and filmed myself crying. It took 11 takes, because the lighting in a Range Rover is unforgiving, and grief is no excuse for a bad shot. In the final cut, you can see a single tear land on my sports bra right over the logo, which clicks through to an affiliate link. My caption: "I'm literally shaking."
Then I put on the shortest shorts I own, went back inside, and filmed my ass from three angles with the caption, "Does this outfit work for you, Shane Gillis?" I wanted to send him a message that my body is not for men. To make sure Shane got the message, I tagged him. Then I tagged every man I follow. Some people say my response proved his point. These people are rapists.

Article bu Brigit Phetasy here.

Some cuckboy at Philadelphia Magazine insists that Shane Gillis broke six "rules" of comedy, which are all various ways of saying women are always right, never "punch down," and never attack any group associated with the political left.

What would comedy be without some strict rules imposed by political commissars?

Rule #1: Don't call women whores. Or say they dress like whores. Or use the word "whores" at all.
...
Maybe some comics can say "whore," under the right conditions.

I assume "the right conditions" are "when you're attacking a Fox News presenter or Republican congresswoman."

But for Shane Gillis it's a nonstarter. His resting stage persona is somewhere between frat boy, Bugs Bunny, and a bouncer trying to memorize the address on your ID. Like he's always on a boozy power trip. Like he says "whores" a lot. Opinions vary over how the "whore" line went over in the room, but the social media reaction has been a rousing thumbs-down.

No it hasn't been. It's been a thumbs-down from humorless twats and gayboys like yourself. You are not the world, thank heavens.

Rule #2: Don't namedrop. And: Don't namedrop Joe Rogan and Theo Von.

Namedropping is an amateur-hour flex to begin with, but those particular names thudded extra heavy.* Rogan and Von repeatedly platform the worst humans in the world (fascists, billionaire creeps, Tony Hinchcliffe, etc.) If Shane thought a general audience was gonna say "woo" to those bros, he's been in the Mothership humidor too long.
...
Rule #6: It bears repeating.
Same as Rule #1. The "whores" thing. Don't be like "that woman is in gym shorts, just like a whore." That's it.

A lot of unfuckable low-T effeminate men are riding this horse to let their ugly feminist friend-zone wardens let them know they're Good Guys Who Don't Rape (Usually).

Michael Tracy was menaced at a "Jane Doe" rally. A female cop, clearly a left-wing lesbian who probably has a $700 bar tab at The Last Ditch, told him it was his fault because he was "making people uncomfortable" by doing skeptical journalism.

I have learned the female police officer who told me I was "making people uncomfortable" -- while admitting she had no basis for asserting this -- is Officer Karolina Stypulkowski. Latest reported salary: $130,893. She also serves as Secretary of the local Ithaca Police Union https://t.co/2IAM765ib9

Holy crap, I need a cigarette. Who the hell is this?

I think it might be Iliza Schlesinger, just because she's the only mid-profile blonde attractive comedienne I know of. Kind of looks like her. But she's a dumb lefty. I guess the take here is permissible to the left, because it's not mocking the left per se, but only mocking corporate/media attempts to pander to the left through stupid catchphrases and bubblegum pop ideology.

Though here she is also hitting the stupid fembot internet anti-culture. She does say that this "glitter speak" was invented to sell you "pencil cases," but she can't have failed to notice it is not corporations chiefly responsible for this infantilizing cant. It's feminists on the internet generally. Femfluencers.

The failed show The Boys used this kind of humor to "attack the left" and show they were hitting "both sides." But they weren't. The show attacked the right for being the right and didn't attack the left at all, they just attacked corporate media powers for slinging slogans to appeal to the left like "Girls Get It Done!" So the show attacked the right and the inauthentic fake corporate left. Never the real left.

And just in case you missed that point, they got very aggressive and overt with their anti-Christian, anti-traditionalist, anti-male sloganeering in later seasons.

Anyway, I'm not a fan of hers, but damn it, this is a solid rant. I am so tired of this "glitter speak."

Update: Yes, it's her, and yes, she's a raging feminist and is only attacking "the commodification of feminism."

Except she knows this is a lie. Again, it's not Pepsi or Volvo or Papa John's that talks like this 24 hours a day, it's feminist women on the internet writing for themselves and not for any corporation.

I think the left has corporatized so much over the last few decades where their support is all the result of mass media companies, not anything grassroots, that they don't realize that attacking the corporatization of leftism is actually an attack on the dominant form of leftism in the Western World.

Leftists generally aren't looking to counter-culture or underground figures for their signals or messages, but corporate mouthpieces. So, the left hates it, but they rely on it in totality. It's an interesting dynamic.

Rhyming Cockney slang?

Posted by: "Perfessor" Squirrel at October 14, 2026 04:37 PM (FZ29D)

63 The term dolly-mop (or dollymop) is a 19th-century slang term for an amateur, part-time female prostitute, servant-maid, or street-walker in England, particularly London.

Etymology and Breakdown

• Dolly: Historically a diminutive nickname for Dorothy, "dolly" also developed various slang meanings over time, including a term for a woman/favorite and, in some historical or vulgar slang contexts, a term for the penis.
• Mop: Derived from Middle English moppe, which originally meant a fool, simpleton, a messy-haired person, or a disheveled servant/drab, as well as being linked to female names and slang for untidy attire or a strumpet (such as historical terms like mab or mob).

Posted by: ace at October 14, 2026 04:37 PM (1wjle)

64 Dolly mop

Dollymop is pretty specific, it refers to Victorian Era underage girls, often taken by upper class dudes who caught the clap and were told you could get rid of it by sleeping with a virgin. And yes, that nonsense still is told in some parts of Africa as well.

75 From bing ai:

“Dollymop” is a 19th‑century British slang term for an amateur or part‑time female prostitute, derived from a combination of “dolly” (slang for a woman) and “mop” (slang for a young whiting fish), with roots in older English and even Proto‑Indo‑European vocabulary

From AI: Yes, Shane Gillis has consistently mocked Republicans and Donald Trump in his recent work, despite often being labeled "conservative" or "MAGA-friendly" by some. In his Netflix special Beautiful Dogs, he makes jokes about the "hypocrisy of pro-gun advocates" and the "unseriousness of Donald Trump’s speeches," and has stated in interviews that he "didn’t vote for Trump."

I guess that bought him a spot on SNL but no grace from the lefty scolds.

But, damn if I didn't laugh my ass off at Gillis's portrayal of George Washington and the liberties he took. He portrays Washington as an out of control red-headed giant retard effected by his lead based false teeth, and that alone scared the Hessians into defeat as they saw the lunatic taking row boats across the semi-frozen Delaware while other Continental soldiers tried to get him to sit down on the boat.

Hell, Gillis, who claims that Downs Syndrome just missed him, and that's why he has the appearance of one, used to go to Pro Football games and get front row seats in the handicapped area because after enough beers he looked like he fit right in. And, this is a story he enjoys telling.

152 • Mop: Derived from Middle English moppe, which originally meant a fool, simpleton, a messy-haired person, or a disheveled servant/drab, as well as being linked to female names and slang for untidy attire or a strumpet (such as historical terms like mab or mob).

164 Here is the thing from my view, for what it is worth. There is a level of wearing something that provides freedom of movement, etc etc. Many of these women have worked hard and they have a great body, so yes, they are showing that off - not sure why that is so terrible for them to admit. Most worked hard for it. Maybe they don’t want to be followed around the gym by weirdos, and that is also okay. I feel strongly adult men are able to control themselves, you know, being adults and all. I also understand a larger person who is trying to get fit wanting to wear something that allows them the ability to workout, and I don’t think that needs to be a trash bag.

More like Jonathan Creek who was a technician that designed magician illusions. Ludwig is a puzzler (one who writes puzzles) and a bit at sea with the world having been a shut in for most of his life. So there are Monk vibes here. They introduce a twin brother also played as a mostly offscreen presence for Mitchell as well. The brother was a Detective Inspector and got involved in some shadowy overarching plot that required the shutin to impersonate him in the first series and now as a consultant when he was revealed as an imposter at the end of series one.

Want humor, David Mitchell's older and much shorter series, Ambassadors, is actually quite good. And he works in a Prince Andrew visit in that series without of course directly naming the prince that came to the country to charm them for contracts.

When it entered the language from French the word "appoint" only meant to place somebody in a position or office.

And "disappoint", more rarely used, meant to undo that appointment, often leaving somebody feeling deflated and with less hope.

And in general this feeling that things did not turn out as hoped for became "disappointment".

Ya know, the way out of this is to starve from the attention they crave. Which is true of so many things. I personally find the girls who think every man at the gym is staring at her annoying, because, and maybe they need to sit down a second, they aren’t all that incredible looking.

There was a time when people wanted to attract other people so they could go date and pair up. It wasn’t a bad thing. This sanitized no one can be attracted to anyone thing is not all the lined up with human nature. But there is definitely a line between hey, I think I look good, and want you to think I look good, versus my shorts are tight so now you get to glom all over me and I asked for it. There is also a line between short short girl, and someone having a train ridden on them and expecting zero judgement for that.

that kind of fills in a gap for me, because the French word for disappoint is nothing like "disappoint." It's something like "decevoir" (which I guess is something like "receive badly").

so now I know why disappoint =/= disappoint.

The problem is more about women wearing these outfits and getting angry just because a guy looked at her, sometimes with her phone out so she can post it on TikTok.

There’s no epidemic of sexual assaults at gyms that I’m aware of. So men, in general, are doing OK. But it’s become a performative act from sone women to get me attracted and then get offended if they’re attracted (usually because the guy isn’t up to her standards and must be punished for the insolence).

You go out dressed like that in public anywhere long enough to be noticed and you could draw some unwanted attention by men.

They should must be thankful they aren’t dressing like this in a country where men don’t bother controlling themselves instead of just complaining or joking about it here.

Posted by: Sandy Cocazio Ortez at October 14, 2026 04:28 PM (k3anH)

Can I invent an explanation? I will give it a shot!

There is roughly a 30-point IQ Communication Gap. (Really, two standard deviations, but that's not just math -- worse, it's statistics.) So, a somewhat bright, 120 IQ comedian's sense of humor may seem overly abstract and unfunny to the average Heritage (non-immigrant) Black with an 85 IQ (one standard deviation below the mean).

Conversely, a comedian whose IQ is Right There With Them will hit their entire community, as well as the whole peak of the bell curve up to 115, and also the smarter ones who are drunk or high* at the time. It's a smart market-maximizing play -- but since he isn't smart, he probably just stumbled into it by accident.

* There was an exchange, I think on the old Motley Fool paid forums, where someone wondered how Two And A Half Men could be so popular. "It's just sex and fart jokes." And one guy replied, "Yeah, well, that's all I can handle at the end of the day, after using up all my brainpower at work."

272 Saw a conversation about the future, and it brings up an illustration of sexes. Men's wants are so simple, that someday, theoretically they might be able to buy a companion product off the line. Something that can look like a top 1% woman, engage in sex without manipulation, and simulate a pleasant personality.

But no business can afford to ship out top-20% income earners for women. And almost no woman could afford to buy it.

Also I counter the eww factor women have to this thought, with my speculation that far more phallic sex toys are probably sold to "modern liberated women" who cannot be shamed for that choice, than pocket pussies and blow-up dolls.

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. President Trump suggests Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs (D) may be BOUGHT OFF by the CARTELS, calling on every AZ voter to vote Andy Biggs

"Katie Hobbs does the BIDDING of the cartels. People say SHE'S PAID OFF BY THE CARTELS."

"Something HAS to be between her and the cartels because she causes DEATH in your state. She vetoed 18 bills cracking down on crime including legislation to crush the drug cartels...it would've BROKEN the cartels."

"She wouldn't sign increased sentences for fentanyl!"

"Andy Biggs is SMART. And he's COMMON SENSE. He respects the heroes of ICE and Border Patrol." 💯

Bill after bill to crack down landed on Hobbs' desk, and she vetoed them! That's BETRAYAL

Pretty obvious that the EU wants to keep the Russian money they froze to backstop the whole banking and economic system of the Euro. I think that is what is driving it in part.

There is an entire panoply of workout clothes for people of all shapes and sizes that exists and has existed for the last couple of decades, which allows you to move and get your workout in without unnecessary encumbrance.

These things existed and girls wore them when I was in college 25+ years ago. Running shorts, actual sports bras and athletic tank tops that aren't glorified body paint.

The girls didn't gripe back then, and guess what, the guys still stole a glance because leaving something to the imagination is actually sexier than wearing underwear to the gym most of the time.

343 Ace, I read the title as Genital Warts. Seriously.

I guess because I read Cornell comments and have a STD of eyeballs.

Now I will read this one.

Why, for starters, do these women care what others think about they gym clothing? Granted I would be uncomfortable with the shorts and adjusting. Much less being with guys who can't help but look if you are next to them.

I'm a grandmother and still get hit on wearing long tee shirts and capri leggings in a park with grandkids. I don't want to be hit on (husband was taking our crazy #1 girl to the loo) at this point in life. I was not flaunting anything at a picnic table with grandson.

I never had to try in my prime because I was nice to look at and fun, wearing jeans and a stylin top. I didn't ever think about swishing in to catch a man.

I caught the one I married without trying. In fact he was dating a classmate and I refused to go out with him til he cleared that up. No way was I a boyfriend stealer or even thought about stealing a married man.

If you want to dress this way, go for it (I guess).
If you look good why care what others (men) think? That's empowerment, baybee. Not that I agree with what you wear, but it ain't Iran.

A White Leftwing Couple Bought a $1.5 Million Home in a Black Neighborhood in Austin. Nothing Bad Happened at All and Everyone Is Living in Racial Harmony.

Oh wait, that's not what happened at all.

What happened is racial redlining, enforced by blacks who say this is "OUR NEIGHBORHOOD!"

According to numerous clips, the woman left notes on cars near her $1.5 million home, telling drivers not to park there. The home is reportedly near a Historically Black College and University. The woman, who was white, got confronted, got huffy, dropped the school's reported 25 percent graduation rate, and now they're besieged.

The white couple have a Talafreako yard sign.

As a wise insane man said, You get what you deserve.

A white couple in Austin is currently going through hell.
The couple had a minor disagreement with a neighbor about people parking in front of their home and not leaving them anywhere else to park.
Minor disagreement.
No big deal right? (The black woman tried to escalate it, as they always do)
The video was posted to Instagram and a bunch of blacks have come together to harass the couple.
The man even says in the video, 'Everybody go stand in front of her house and scare her to make her move.'
This is a crime.
- Stalking - Texas Penal Code sec. 42.072
- Harassment - Texas Penal Code sec. 42.07
- Terroristic threat - Texas Penal Code sec. 22.07

Gee I've heard that is a racial crime whose foul stain will never be erased when white people did it 70 years ago.

But now? It's just some good ol' fashioned anti-gentrification terrorism.

Terroristic KKK-style threats are just "the voice of the unheard."

That said -- to hell with this couple. I hope they're forced out and take a million dollar loss on the house.

57 First, there is never any street parking near a university. Any urban university. College students don't have money to pay for parking, they will drive around the block forever, waiting for a spot to open up.
Second, their arrogance, wanting to prove their false social beliefs. Buying a home in this neighborhood was likely a political statement from them, not because they liked the house.
Third, the move to put notes on windshields, that is just stupid. It inflames the car owner, who then told the neighbors, and just like that, the only white family in the neighborhood becomes a self-made target.
The non-self awareness of these people sounds like they are true white liberals. They got what they asked for.

There is a reason that urban cities become notorious for too many regulations, laws, rules, etc. It is because they concentrate the assholes in a small geographic area and these rules, laws, regulations, have to be directed toward the lowest common denominator. Same reason that suburbs now have HOA Not Sees.

People behaving awful to each other and the ones that behave the most awful end up causing rules against their awfulness.

Cities concentrate people behaving badly so you end up with prison rules and customs for everyone to lessen the likelihood that person A shanks person B.

All of that tends to go away when you have space enough between dwellings that the assholes can be ignored. They tend to self select too after acting the fool and move to places more accepting of their behavior.

When I tried to get into a university campus (and I didn't want to pay their fees), I parked on one of those streets nearby. Legally.

86 I live in an old part of town with most homes built before cars were a thing. A lot of houses don’t have garages or even driveways. The streets are packed with cars. People park where there spots doesn’t matter if it’s not right in front of their house.

It’s absurd for anyone to think they can dictate who parks where on a city street. If you don’t like this environment move to the suburbs in an HOA where nobody is allowed to park on the street.

There was a movie that came out in 2021 called "Karen", which was essentially this scenario Ace wrote about, only of course it was a black couple trying to fit into an affluent white Atlantia suburb.

That movie was memorable to me for all the wrong reasons. Some notable moments - the white racist "Karen" antagonist had a confederate soap dispenser, her brother of course was a corrupt racist cop who also was part of "The Brotherhood", and Ben Crump himself had a part at the end where he decried the perils of huwhite racism while some guy on the side was playing on either trombone or a trumpet.

My house is 135 years old, has been renovated I dunno 10 times? A couple of additions along the way. Still has a lot of the original wood floors. It’s a really cool house.

But it needs work constantly. I knew what I was getting into though and it’s part of the deal. Also has just a tiny one car garage which sucks. I could use a 3 car garage easily.

Neighborhood is awesome, huge oak and maple trees, and every house is unique not cookie cutter shit in a subdivision. It’s a historic district so any new builds have to conform to the aesthetic of the neighborhood. And it’s walkable to just about anything I need. Very few houses are ever for sale and when they do go up they sell fast.

But it’s not for everyone obviously.

143 No offense to anyone here, but who wants to move into a black neighborhood? Hell, blacks don't want to move into black neighborhoods.

Part of the reason black neighborhoods are generally poor and dysfunctional is because anyone living there gets out as soon as they can. So there's continual flight out of the neighborhood of the very residents who could make it better.

The same is true for white trash trailer parks. Nobody wants to live there. As soon as a resident can get out, they do.

It's a puzzler! But it all makes sense if they're low-attachment, high-functioning sociopaths.

A nation bounded by laws and Constitution will always limit their power. If they can ride the Socialist tiger and stay on top, then they can have unbounded, unaccountable power.

By regression to the mean, sexual reproduction will hinder dynasties by making the offspring of exceptional couples closer to their ethnic group average. And, while wealth is a pie that can be expanded, status really is a zero-sum game, where your family's upward mobility may come at the cost of their family's rank. If they can use DEI and ESG to keep White and Oriental men from the lower to middle-middle classes from rising up through merit, then their own lazy, spoiled, midwit, mediocre offspring can stay on top.

This may explain the WEF/transnat elites' support for DEI/ESG and socialism.

I am not far enough away anymore from the blob that has moved my way in the last twenty years. But my neighborhood is all large acreage and not really suited for mega complex development. No pumping stations for the area means all the development must be gravity fed. That puts a choker on development long enough for my wife to finish up and retire so we can move away.

She has about five years to go for max benefits and is getting closer to just wanting to end it in two years when she can draw benefits.

I grew up on a farm mostly and miss the wide open spaces and development is beginning to be claustrophobic in our larger neighborhood along with governance getting worse.

I grew up on farm land just outside town and going into cities to this day feels wrong and bad. Too many people, nowhere to escape, no fields, the views are all blocked off by buildings, the smell is bad, its loud, there's no life except people and rats in alleys, maybe a pigeon or dove.

I feel trapped and uncomfortable. NO amount of Ethiopian delivery food or crappy off-off-broadway plays make up for that.

Posted by: Aetius451AD

Trees go because the developers want every square foot they can get out of zoning and zero lots require bulldozing and shaping everything to get proper drainage, sewage, and construction slabs. Old style was you had a developer that sold lots to individual builders, new style is developer integrated with a universal builder for a project and often even a patron lender. So mass production of cookie cutter homes with HOAs.

FWIW, I think houses are viewed as disposable now for a corporate class that moves every couple of years anyway. Same with the H1Bs, etc. And from what I've seen, many of these new tract houses are poorly built and not really designed for decades to come.

Akshually, there are homes like that in Cville. They're usually professor's homes.

Yes, you can find homes around the $1.5 million price point near the University of Virginia (UVA) campus in Charlottesville, though inventory in that specific combination of price and proximity is limited and competitive.
• Near-Campus Neighborhoods: Areas like Lewis Mountain (within walking distance of campus and spots like the Fralin Museum or Scott Stadium), Jefferson Park Avenue (JPA), and parts of Rugby Road or University Circle feature desirable historic and traditional homes.
• Nearby Upscale Communities: Slightly outside the immediate dense campus grid, upscale areas like Ednam (close to Farmington Country Club and UVA) offer luxury homes typically floating right around or under the $1.5 million mark.
• Market Realities: In the central Cville/UVA corridor, a $1.5 million budget will generally buy you a smaller historic cottage, a high-end townhome, or an older home needing updates rather than a massive new-construction estate (which tend to push past $1.6M–$1.7M

it's pretty close to downtown and the university.

When I was in college I rented a room and had to park in the street. No problem, it was far enough away from the campus that there was always room for more cars. The old bat living across the street got pissed though. Left notes on my windscreen all the time. Sometimes with a list of days when I was parked in front of her house, or with a polaroid, like she was gathering evidence for CSI. Note, she had a driveway big enough for two cars but she only had one. It's not as if I was taking the last street space.

Giant oaks, pines, etc. have root fields that extend about the same distance from the trunk as the leaves go. Get into that root field with a dozer, etc. often that will kill the big tree requiring expensive removal.

Last twenty years, spent a lot of time on local development issues helping other folks deal with incoming development nightmares and blocking the worst of them. Learned a fair chunk over time about a lot of current and bad development practices that current builders want to do.

If you're a Gen Alpha and you only leave the house to pick up the delivery food, never want to drive, and fear the outside, you can get a Lyft self-driving car to where you want, if you ever go anywhere. Who needs a garage to work on the car, or anywhere to park?

250 I'm trying to think where this house is located.

I'm assuming it's in East Austin somewhere. Not a lot of great neighborhoods, but-

it's pretty close to downtown and the university.

Probably, they thought they were smart as hell moving in close for only $1.5M instead of out in North Austin and saving the 30 minute or more drive.

But, it turns out they weren't.

Everyone in the NoVa area is looking for that big, overlooked bargain. They don't exist. There are millions of people looking for the same thing. You just have to reconcile yourself to the notion that the dream home you envisioned buying at 30 just isn't going to happen, at least not until you're much older, and if you're lucky, wealthier.

I think the glory of pine trees will pall shortly. They are alright far enough from the house but close by, not so much and if you get pine bark beetles, will die overnight. Watch for the bright orange tops and take that tree down promptly and have it removed. Or it will spread to all surrounding pine trees quickly.

Had that experience personally. Gum trees, by comparison, are just a pain in the butt every gumball season. But can turn beautiful colors in fall.

289 I think the glory of pine trees will pall shortly. They are alright far enough from the house but close by, not so much and if you get pine bark beetles, will die overnight. Watch for the bright orange tops and take that tree down promptly and have it removed. Or it will spread to all surrounding pine trees quickly.

308 I guess the scriptwriters at Netflix are having troubles sexualizing the children in Narnia enough.

Greta Gerwig, satanist who made the movie said that she was entirely driven by "faith" and claimed that she 'read all of Lewis' books" which I find highly unlikely given that he wrote about 40 of them. She might have had an AI read the wikipedia summary of some of them out loud to her.

But she never stated what this "faith" was or in whom it was.

According to that source, the mood in the room was deflated once the lights came up."

Montecito, where all the Santa Barbara celebrities live, has a shit-ton of eucalyptus, which has rather shallow root systems. Every time the Santa Ana winds come blasting through the canyons, a bunch of eucalyptus comes crashing down, smashing Volvos and tearing up their personal putting greens in the backyard.

While driving through Montecito to my favorite trailhead, I saw one of these that barely missed the bedroom wing of the house. The trunk was about 7 ft in diameter and leaning against the house. The woman who lived there was standing in the front yard wearing PJs with a thousand yard stare probably with soiled underwear.

Cornell's Jane Doe Nominated for Best Rape Hoax at This Year's Spirit Awards

She's a shoe-in.

During her seven hour rape by seven rapists, she apparently had full possession and use of her phone, which she, get this, did not use to summon the authorities but instead chat with her roomie.

Don't you Racists know that all women in the middle of a gang-rape experience trauma that causes them to text as if nothing is happening?

See, all lies told by rape hoaxers are actually "classic signs of trauma." It's just Science, Bigots.

"Cornell 7" accuser Jane Doe sent her roommate a three-letter text during the time she alleges she was gang raped -- which a lawyer for one of the accused frat brothers cites as proof she wasn't too wasted to consent.
Jane Doe's roommate texted her at 3:05 a.m. on Oct. 20, 2024, to ask her, "You coming home tn [tonight]?" according to a screenshot shared by TMZ show.
"idk," the accuser replied, using the three-letter abbreviation for "I don't know."
The text appears to have been sent from Jane Doe's phone in the middle of what she later alleged was a drunken, ketamine-fuelled gang-rape in the Chi Phi fraternity house on Cornell University's Ithaca, New York, campus.
The exchange took place between half an hour and an hour after Doe says multiple men were snorting ketamine off her body, and she was so intoxicated she couldn't process what was going on.
At least one of the seven accused fraternity brothers' lawyers says that the messages -- which featured in Cornell's internal disciplinary hearing -- show the woman was not incapacitated and could read, process, and respond to messages, TMZ reported.

Jane Doe's roommate, who sent the first message, later shared a picture of their sorority dorm room on social media at around 11:15 a.m. on the morning after the alleged gang rape, along with the caption, "It was a good night when only one out [of] three of us made it back."

She also wrote "i love u" to one of her gang-rapists and reminisced about snorting ketamine ("ket") off one rapist's dong.

Another classic "tell" of rape trauma.

Good heavens, about two days after she claims to have been gang raped, she told one of her so-called rapists, "I really do love u."
Last week, yet more texts from Jane Doe to a member of the group of frat brothers known as the "Cornell 7" were released. According to TMZ, these texts are between her and Jonathan Newell.
"ps. I'm not sure if u remember but I did ket off your dick at some point ... and I honestly think that was one of the most insane/jaw dropping moments of the night," wrote Jane Doe to Newell, per TMZ.
He responded with, "I'm just glad ur ok, I was kinda upset w all the stories going around earlier but at the end of the day that's all they r."
Then Newell appears to respond to her news about doing ketamine off of him with, "And I have no memory of that last part." This text closes with a laughing emoji.

I think he was raped, too.

She then writes, "oh jesus not the stories i don't even think i wanna know. I know im socially a massive slut rn and i like can't bare to hear it cause im really not."

Per TMZ, this exchange occurred on the evening of October 21, 2024, which is the day after the alleged gang rape.
Then, ten days later, after Newell's fraternity disinvited her to a Halloween party she was eager to attend, Jane Doe changed her tune...
Something else that happened over those ten days was Jane Doe finding herself slut-shamed on campus.
The night after the event, it sounds like she's bragging about snorting the drugs off of his penis. Then, ten days later, she's basically claiming she was forced to do this.

Classic post-rape behavior. "Trauma" always causes women to behave as if they're just straight-up makin' shit up.

Be better, Bigots.

47 I have family in law enforcement and they tell me it's very sad that when they get rape reports they are very skeptical initially because so many females make false reports. They reasons are usually to avoid consequences for being out too late or they are stepping out on a spouse or boyfriend and so they make up the I was raped story to avoid accountability.

This probably falls under things that are true but you're not supposed to say them.

Posted by: CaliGirl at October 14, 2026 02:34 PM (EROzA)

48 This is evil for so many reasons.

Destroying men's lives because she has regrets. (Even if I find their choices disgusting, they ALL made those choices.)

Destroying the lives of men who never even touched her because she thought they might have. (Who were trying to navigate around people making disgusting choices. I think they also made a foolish choice to be in that environment, but some of the guys had literally nothing to do with the orgy.)

Making real rape claims less believable. Rape is a heinous crime. Pretending "I felt pressured so I couldn't say no" is rape makes a mockery of actual rape claims (He put a knife to my throat; or they dragged me into a bush and then left me for dead). It's of a type with Stolen Valor. ("Stolen Victimhood" just doesn't quite cut it, though.)

The marxist Karen's running universities are doing their best to trash tradition and history. At my fraternity last year a sorority bimbo gets drunk in her room, goes over to the frat (carrying her bottle of vodka) and asks for her boyfriend. He comes.down, sees her, and takes her drunk ass back to her sorority. He hands her over to her roommate who then calls the sorority president. Together they put the bimbo to bed and calls the university complaining her boyfriend got her drunk. The fraternity (highest group GPA on campus) is put in probation. It took three alumni ($$$ donors) and an attorney to straighten it out, much to the chagrin of the tranny bitch overseeing the Greek system on campus.

Not really. The slut-shaming began almost immediately, and she completely brushed it off in the "it's my body, right" text to the Newell kid. She didn't care that everyone knew she fucked a bunch of popular jocks at the popular jock frat. She was almost proud of it.

What she did care about was getting kicked off the Halloween party invite list. That's the entire reason she became hostile and accusatory. To her, getting dissed by the frat was far more embarrassing and status-reducing than fucking a bunch of the cool kids.

There's also some issue she had with her own sorority sisters talking shit about her. (Shocker that they would do that, right?) I think that's tied up in the "what is happening to you" text from Newell (?).

I'd call it rape though. The difference in power between a President and an intern is overwhelming.
Case in point:
During Clinton's presidency an Army captain met a young woman, off post, and they started an affair. She later told him she was a sergeant but not in his unit.This came out and he was court-martialed for rape and she was kicked out of the Army. They later married.
Why was he charged? Because of the power level difference between a captain and a sergeant. She was unable to say no without fear of reprisal...so says the prosecutor.

115 As I've been saying, I think this story suddenly resurfacing and going viral was 100% an op to try to gin up some "war against women" outrage for the November elections. Hochul is so nervous about her chances she's resorting to claiming NY isn't a sanctuary state.

I noticed the incumbent Dem governor in MA jumped onboard her opponent's idea to suspend the gas tax. Note...not now, after she wins.

That tells me she's at least a little worried - that bint was elected on a platform of raising fossil fuel costs. But I suspect she will win and afterwards there will be a fair number of Dem voters wondering why the gas tax did not go down...

I don't know if it was her, but there was definitely some woman who was taking that stuff and was shocked how horny she now was. I think Andrew Sullivan (who was also taking T) linked to that one.
When I was younger I heard about T making women "aggressive". There were some guys (weirdos) who were administering this hormone to the women in their lives. I asked around because I didn't know why a man would want an aggressive woman in the house and the consensus I got back was that "aggressive" was code for horny.

This is (sadly) very normal behavior and has been for a long time. As I've been saying, the popular and prestigious frats have a lot of social power and control who gets inside the velvet rope. There are many girls who will do almost anything to get inside that rope.

Plus, 99% of everything girls under the age of 25 see in social media, TV, movies, concerts, and pretty much everything is girls acting like total whores. They internalize that and seek to mimic it.

Ace posted yesterday about the sleazy, slutty, X-rated concerts of that Sabrina Carpenter twat, and she mimics on stage exactly what Craig did here: blow some guy while getting fucked from behind by another.

180 Faber was pretty clearly meant to be in New England. Most likely MA. Fawn Leibowitz who died in the tragic kiln explosion was a close-by women's college - one of the cluster in MA, my guess.

It's one of the interesting aspects of audience reaction. I watched it on the east coast, then on the west coast, and there was a lot more resonance on the east coast for the classic New England small private college 1960s vibe.

Sort or reminded me of the scene in Annie Hall where the east coast audience guffawed and laughed at the Christmas scene opening, which showed bright sunny sky and palm trees before the camera panned down to Woody and whoever it was. On the west coast? No reaction whatsoever, treated just as a pretty transition visual to the conversation in the car.

Kinda stupid, because they could do the exact same thing next weekend if they wanted without a party. Jane Doe came for the sex and not the party. Nearly all of the drinking was her before the meeting. They went private for the ketamine parts, which she knew about before hand.

In very little of this in all reports is there the 'got plied with drink and caught off guard' or 'social pressure took her too far' that might be warded off by banning the party.

Very popular club and "party" drug. It's a sedative, but unlike heroin or oxy, it has distinct euphoric effects. Makes you giddy and happy.

It's popular with the ladies because it's "clean," easy to take, and there's no real hangover.

K is very dangerous in high doses, though. Just ask Mathew Perry.

My guess would be is that people looked at the reaction to the Clancey thing and realized that even a lot of women were going: 'she's an evil, murdering bitch... maybe we should rethink a lot of this shit we have pushed lately.'

This was an attempt to claw back credibility because a fair number of gals have had sexual encounters they have regretted. The thing is, they rushed in with pushing the sorry before they really did their own research and... well, commies, you hitched your star to a skank.

Agree, but the Dums were desperate and only read the complaint -- which of course is totally inconsistent with what she said at the time.

Too many people -- even some on our side -- think a legal complaint is some kind of proof or even evidence of what happened. It's not. 90% of what goes into a complaint is somewhere between Total Bullshit and Heavily Exaggerated. Don't ask me how I know.

I had just returned to the US from months in the USSR, and all my buddies immediately dragged me to Animal House (which they'd already seen). I knew nothing of it before, of course, being in a true "news blackout" (except for getting the russki side of the Scharansky trial). So was quite the return/adjustment experience.

They were paid an outrageous amount of money to produce a few shows/movies.

They bought one documentary at Sundance already completed, “American Factory”, that won an Oscar just because Trump was president that year.

Then they made a Netflix series documentary where Obama got paid to go vacation to national parks around the world and talk about them.

They did some other stuff, too, but I can’t remember what exactly.

I still think USAID was involved in the relentless cultural push to brainwash every American born after 1960 that there's something clinically wrong with you if you haven't had sex before you turn 18, and you should be locked in an asylum for the safety of others if you still haven't before age 21.

270 Her lawyers are arguing that no matter how much time has elapsed or how clear consent was, if you regret later it becomes rape at that point.

Which is a novel legal concept that is insane in its implications. But they are so determined to make this a Thing for this election that they don't care.

Unfortunately more than a few people know nothing about this case other than white frat boys raped a girl. The fact that it was not rape, that most of the guys were not white, and she thanked them for it later is either unknown or irrelevant to them.

The Whatever podcast was having a discussion on fertility. One male guest mentioned female fertility starts dropping after 28 and seriously after 35.

All the young female guests said he was wrong and how they settled on why was fascinating. One woman said, "Well hey this celebrity just had a child at 40 so obviously you are wrong" and then all the others gloomed onto the same argument.

Now, the argument isn't you can't get pregnant at 40, but that it is harder and more dangerous. But here what mattered to the young women was what celebrities were doing.

True, at least in this case. Cornell tried to support her contention, wanted to support her contention, and could not find even the slightest evidence she was raped. In fact, there was more evidence she sexually assaulted a guy that night than the reverse, in that she said she blew a guy while he was unconscious.

It's pretty old - Feminism always had a core encouraging women to be sexually libertine as a default to be more like men -- neglecting the large fraction of men who are content with one woman in one relationship if they can.

Women who don't - forget them. Women who go into business or have a career but don't become artificial men...well forget them too. We need Girl Bosses who act like idiots instead.

I can go to a house full of dudes and fuck seven of them in one night, because I'm Good. You can't, you'd just be a slut.

Part of my point. Most dudes would be ok with the idea of two gals.

Two dude threesomes re not normal. One, the instinctive reaction of a dude is 'gay.' Most GALS would not want to be involved because they do not want to be seen as a slut.

Part of this, to me, seems to be a continuation of trying to deform normal man-woman relations.

Well, through history there have been a large fraction of men that never got much of a chance at genetic survival. So we evolved to take the chance when it comes or sneak it when we could, because the lords had them all.

We are purely visual creatures when it comes to sex.

All it takes, especially when we are young, is seeing a woman who is attractive in whatever way that individual finds attractive, and instantly we are starting to winder what’s underneath all those clothes.

If she is asleep or passed put that just means she can’t bust us checking her out.

The ones among us with the least amount of impulse control might take that further to, “she looks helpless, here is my chance…”.

352 A, and that's a stupid false dilemma.

Is it?

There are three groups here

1) People that see Clancy as a murderer and want her punished

2) People that think it is not a criminal thing she murdered her kids because she had reasons to do it as a woman. Mental illness, hormones, emotions, whatever

3) Crazy people that think there was some grand conspiracy to help her husband get away with murdering the kids and pin it on her

Ignore group 3 here. If group 2 is right then logically women shouldn't be allowed to make any decisions because they can't be held to the results of those decisions.

Posted by: 18-1 at October 14, 2026 03:34 PM (sKqQm)

353 A, and that's a stupid false dilemma.

Well his point isn't to prove women are nuts, his point is to say these are the two options that supporters of Clancy are creating. Its their claim that women are inherently unable to control themselves because of hormones and emotions so they should be unpunished for their evil. Which would be the kind of person who ought not be given any power over anything, even children.

I see women as being capable of controlling themselves and handling their emotions as well as men, as 99.99% have for all humanity. But that is their argument even if they aren't aware of the implications of their position.

I'd already planned to leave a letter to our gorgeous (and they are, age 5 & 1yrs) granddaughters on how I hope they will be in HS and college if I am not here. My ROE as a teen through college.

About not falling for peer pressure to be popular. To value themselves as they are in our eyes: perfect and beautiful.

Not needing to be popular if sex/drugs/booze are expected. Stand out from the crowd. Wait for maturity that comes with age. Explain that I was very popular in HS and college and rarely dated but had a lot of male and female friends.

Respect is everything. Do not fall for any HS or college guy who says he loves you...real love is in your future with a mature, ambitious man who respects you, has a future, and shares your values. That is love that endures.

Think about what your parents taught you because they love and want to protect you.

Love God and His teachings.

Never settle.

And that we love* them more than they will ever know.

Around 2002, with both sons at party universities (UF and FSU) I read about Title IX.

Was immediately disgusted and livid in that males were kicked out of college and had to register as sexual predators after consensual sex and then the girl lying and booze. It was always the booze. No mutual texts of proof were recognized.

They both got raging emails from their crazy mom to possibly get written consent and have it notorized if they had sex. I raised them to believe they might die of AIDS, by the way,and to be careful. They were as far as I know. One married his HS sweetheart. Casanova finally married two years ago.

They know I mean well, am basically harmless (but entertaining); and they also never know what I will email. The most recent was the hairy eeslamic terrorist of a week ago who was used as an ad for hair removal.

Report: Major Banks (Those Most Dependant on Government Goodwill) Shut Down MAGA, Pro-Life, Christian, and Other Conservative Accounts to Appeal to Biden's Authoritarian Enforcers

Miranda Divine:

Major banks closed accounts and refused credit to MAGA merchants, pro-life causes, religious groups, conservative organizations and sectors disfavored by the Biden administration, such as firearms, oil and gas, and private prisons, a bombshell report from the federal banking regulator has found.
The Debanking Review by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) investigated 100,000 complaints and scrutinized 50,000 internal bank records to reveal how customers were "debanked" based purely on their political, social, or religious beliefs.
JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citibank, Wells Fargo, U.S. Bank, Capital One, PNC, TD Bank, and BMO Bank were found to have discriminated against American consumers, citing "reputation risk" as a reason to deny service between 2020 and 2025.
Negative press, protests, criticism from advocacy groups such as the Southern Poverty Law Center, and reprisals from regulators or politicians were cited as the reputation risks most feared by the banks.
The 47-page OCC report, "Guaranteeing Fair Banking for All Americans," released Wednesday, found that the nation's largest banks targeted Christian organizations over abortion, LGBTQ issues, and traditional family values.
The banks also restricted financing for "disfavored" industries such as firearms makers and retailers, Arctic oil and gas, coal, detention facilities, tobacco and e-cigarettes.

Among the examples in the report is JPMorgan Chase's payment operation, WePay, closing the account of a merchant that sold merchandise promoting President Trump and the Make America Great Again (MAGA) brand, claiming it "promote[d] hate, violence, or racial intolerance."
The bank's internal screening system regularly flagged terms such as "MAGA," "Make America Great," and "America First" that appeared in merchants' customer profiles, websites, and transaction information. Several of the terms used to find "violations" were added after the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

So Trump is allowed to force banks to close the accounts of all liberals who make excuses for antifa and Hamas terrorists, right?

Because that's what I see right here.

More than just activity tied to China. Also Russia and "south of the border" activity. Although they didn't say it, my take is this involved a lot of illegal alien activity and similar leftwing efforts.

Basically, BoA was looking the other way as massive amounts of money went back and forth with China, Russia, and almost certainly the Mexican cartels.

You can be fairly sure no MAGA operatives were involved in any of this.

36 You do realize that this "de-banking" push was part of the overall plan to MAKE OPPOSITION TO THE SOCIALIST AGENDA ILLEGAL, right?

You think it's an outlier that Germany is trying to ban from existence its most popular political party (the AfD), and that France has tried to ban its most popular political party (RN) as well, both for the "crime" of simply having political opinions that differ from the socialist super-government? They want to do the same thing here -- make being "conservative" impossible, illegal, a crime.

And the corporations will play right along, feeding the alligator until it is too late.

I've been seeing various people going on college campuses and asking the students if they like socialism. If they say they do the interviewer asks them to explain what socialism is. The answers usually start with something like "everyone gets what they need" and quickly when asked follow up questions of how this specifically works ends up with the student admitting they have no idea what socialism is.

Someone should try the same for fascism, here asking those that believe there are fascist pols in America, and I suspect you'd get a similiar result.

59 Every day, we hear about criminals who launder yuuuuge, luxurious amounts of cash. From our own political leaders, down to some Minneapolis Omar running a few learing senters, to corner boys running dope.

Nobody has ever cared about where the criminals stored the cash. Whether they funneled it through Wells Fargo or USBank doesn't matter to anyone - not regulators, not their own executives, not their so-called "relationship managers," not their consumers, and nobody in the general news-reading public.

There is no reputation-management to be done. Nobody figured these people were honest in the first place.

The idea that an actual, tax-paying, licensed business would need to be debanked in order to preserve a bank's """reputation""" is risible.

We already know these banks will issue a home loan to Big Daddy Slim to use for a trap house, no questions asked.

I keep coming back to how a political party (Democrats) is able to gin up the narrative of "grassroots funding support" when the grassroots portion of their political constituency is made of basement dwelling, non-working, destitute debt holders....and yet they have money to sent to the Democrat party?

Then we see ActBlu thriving and breaking all their previous quarterly records. It's an open secret that these Leftist individuals aren't providing those funds. It's likely disassembled bulk payments from overseas. But, you're not going to get away with that, and have the documented required paperwork to back it up unless a bank is playing along.

I believe the origin of those chairs goes back to the days when romance and even sex was arranged and monitored.

Newlyweds were so young they literally did not know what to do.

I closed a HE loan with Visions last weekend to replace the auto loan I took out in June. They were good to deal with, good rates and no closing costs (not a penny), but pretty slow in moving the loan forward and the endless bullshit they kept asking for.

🤮 KAMALA HARRIS: BIDEN ADMINISTRATION SHOULD HAVE ACTED “SOONER AND MORE FORCEFULLY” AGAINST ISRAEL

Speaking in Seoul, former Vice President Kamala Harris criticized both the Trump administration and her own Biden-Harris administration over Israel’s war in Gaza.

“Most recently, the failure to use our leverage to curtail the Israeli government's horrific conduct in the war in Gaza, both under the current administration, which offers Netanyahu a blank check, and our administration before, where we should have acted sooner and more forcefully.”

Harris said the United States has a “moral obligation to human rights and international law” and should use its leverage over allies accordingly.

There's some dispute in the thread because that number includes voluntary deportation (an agreement with USCIS and ICE) and self deportation, which is basically just leaving with no fuss.

I see no issue with including those, it is far better that people choose to make the process easy on themselves, and creating the climate where that becomes the norm is what is happening.

The claim about Obama deporting anyone is a massive fraud, and always has been. Under Obama, it was claimed that anyone who came to the border but was denied entry for any reason was a deportation, even though all falling under this category had never set food in this country. It was just a number game to give the media something to say and make them look like they were doing something.

when they absolutely were not.

Ilhan "Omar" Falsified Her Birth Date In Her Immigration Paperwork

She lied about being 17 when she applied for citizenship, because the law stated that a minor could piggyback off a naturalized parent's citizenship but an adult couldn't.

So she changed her actual age, 18 or 19, to 17.

Then her staffers changed her Wikipedia entry, which had shown her real birthdate, to her fraudulent birthdate, so that it would agree with her fraudulent immigration paperwork.

That last part isn't illegal. It just shows she knows she was lying all along.

Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar's staff reportedly got her birthdate changed in public records shortly after she was elected to the House in 2018, which would make her a year younger than previously documented, according to records.
The revelation comes amid concerns that the congresswoman misrepresented her age to secure American citizenship. Omar has claimed that she was 17-years-old when she became a citizen in 2000, but previous records noted that she was born in 1981, meaning she was either 18 or 19 when she became a U.S. citizen.
The records have since been updated to show the congresswoman was born in 1982, despite it saying 1981 for the entire time she served in the state legislature, and for months into her first Congressional term, the New York Post reported.
...
Omar, who was born in Somalia, has claimed that she became a citizen through her father, who became a naturalized citizen, but that's only an option if she was a minor when it happened.

Actually he wasn't her father. Her real father was Nur Said Elmi, but he couldn't get a visa, because he was a Somali war-criminal trained in revolutionary warfare by the literal communists. So she pretended to be a part of the "Omar" family.

That's why she could marry her brother -- last name "Elmi" -- without everyone immediately realizing that it was her brother.

David Steinberg reports this is a "an open and shut case" with no questions about the facts of Ilhan "Omar's" crime spree. The only questions are about the statute of limitations.

But there is no statute of limitations for deporting someone who obtained citizenship or a visa fraudulently.

9 I'll repost since nood was called. Another drive by, sorry to not be around much 😥

Repost from my X feed...

Had to argue with someone about Ohio early vote. Figured I'd post a summary.

Remember that in 2022, the GOP won both the Governor and Senate races, and did so easily.

In 2026 mail vote is way down, but IPEV is up a decent amount over 2022.

However, if you look at total early vote, you see the following:

Cleveland is 15% of their 2022 EV

Ohio as a whole is 16% of 2022.

Cleveland IPEV is running about 1300 per day right now. That needs to increase to 6500 per day to equal 2022 total EV. That is a 5x increase in voting per day.

Ohio IPEV is running about 38,000 per day. That needs to increase to 58,000 per day to meet the 2022 benchmark, or a 35% increase.

I'll leave it to speculation what the meaning is of one of the 5 core Democrat strongholds being 1/5th of the needed rate compared to the state as a whole being 2/3rds of the needed rate.

If you operate under the assumption that Ohio is simply a very Republican state that isn't going to materially change within the next few cycles, it becomes easier to see through the bullshit.

But, if you're hanging onto hope that the guy who lost 2 years ago as an incumbent is surging to victory this year over issues he's not even campaigning on, well, then you can see depressed black precinct turnout as not an issue because white progressives in NYC hate Husted.

Traditionally they were pirates and raiders. So crime is built into the culture. Found a record of one of my ancestors who with his wife, was a ship captain in the 1600's--their ship was captured by pirates off of East Africa around Somalia and they both died. Probate records told the sad story.

They’re testing the waters with her. They know moderate Dems, who control party leadership, see her as a far left, antisemitic liability. If the response from Jeffries and the like seems mid in the GOP’s eyes, they’ll start harassing more Dems they have an ax to grind with to normalize it more and more.

Remember that time she criticized an arms deal, and the Biden DoJ immediately opened an investigation into her with no evidence?

You're completely unhinged if you think Democrats will take this lying down. No matter what anyone thinks of Omar, she's a blue seat, and Dems protect their own.

Sure, they want to denaturalize and deport her. But how is a raid on her home going to help with that? If they want to find a mistake in her paperwork, they can comb through the paperwork without setting foot in her house.

The purpose of the raid was to intimidate her and others and to provide joy to the MAGA base.

we'll probably soon start hearing allusions to drugs, child abuse, illegal weapons, eating pets and unnatural sexual practices.

Oct 5
From 1990 to 2017, just 305 cases to revoke citizenship were filed. From 1967 to 2017, fewer than 150 cases actually succeeded.

Trump's DOJ has now filed 163 cases for denaturalization in 20 months, more than half the 27 year total in less than a tenth of the time.

69 The statute of limitation issues are interesting, and there may be a path through beyond denaturalization.

As I understand it, there's a 5-year SoL in federal fraud cases, with a 10-year SoL for certain immigration frauds. These have long past, and there is no criminal "discovery" rule that I'm aware of.

But (again, as I understand it) for certain ongoing or scheme-like criminal fraud claims, the SoL doesn't start running until the last act in the scheme. So, if she tried to cover up her fraud by scrubbing Wiki in 2018, it's possible -- possible -- that the SoL didn't start running until then.

For civil actions, there is a SoL "discovery rule." So that's always an option, but I want to see this thundercunting cockroach face criminal charges.

78 Officers responded to a call Tuesday from a local resident who had discovered what appeared to be grenades dating back to the war among the contents of their estate haul, according to the Austin Police Association. A police bomb squad confirmed the grenades were live and active, meaning they contained explosive material and could potentially denotate.

Squad members were able to seize and remove the devices, while officers "quickly secured the scene, set up a perimeter, and kept neighbors safe," the police association said, praising the bomb squad for their expertise as well as their "steady nerves."

Someone said it’s for MT-1 which is a dead beat. In 2022 MT-1 it was close, Rep won it by 4. In 2024 Rep won it by 7. So it’s not a gimme seat but it’s a lot closer than it should be for comfort.

Montana redistricted their seats to both be safe red seats. It got a second seat in 2022 and the original districts were both 60-40. But of course. A “judge” said nah bruh you have to give Dems a fighting chance in one of them. Only Democrat states like Mass can have all their seats safe blue. So that’s why MT-1 is competitive.

So, Indians are already present here in our university system, and there's tremendous opportunity, particularly for Indian companies as they establish their North American beachhead in Montana, for jobs for these American-trained Indians to work with them and to further research, whether it's in aerospace, bioscience, or agri-tech.

People have the sadzz

Ilhan Omar stands strong in face of racist DHS raid

Homeland Security agents raided the home of Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, a longtime critic of President Donald Trump who has been the target of his xenophobic, racist, and Islamophobic attacks for years.

The raid was purportedly connected to documents signed by Omar’s late father while he was in the process of seeking asylum as a Somali refugee, when Omar was a child. Omar is a U.S. citizen who has held federal office since 2019.

Led by Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, House Democrats released a statement about the “deeply disturbing” raid, which they said “raises serious questions about the continued corrupt weaponization of the federal government against Donald Trump’s adversaries.”

“For years, Donald Trump and far-right extremists have relentlessly targeted Congresswoman Omar with vile personal attacks and baseless accusations. Now, less than 30 days until the midterm election, his violent mass deportation machine has descended upon the home of a duly elected Member of Congress and her family,” the statement said.

Humanoid Robot Under Investigation After Alleged Assault on Teen Girl in Germany

A 16-year-old girl was molested and harassed by a humanoid-type robot in the German city of Cologne — which notoriously already has enough of a sex assault problem without introducing Chinese-made robots to the equation — leading police to confiscate the four-foot-tall machine.

The girl was standing outside a burger joint in the German city a little after midnight on Sunday morning when the robot approached her from behind, grabbed her buttocks, and thrusted on her, police said.

The victim alerted police to the attack and officers quickly confiscated the robot, and two cell phones, as evidence. It is said males aged 19 and 16-years-old were controlling the robot and livestreaming it to social media, reports Die Welt.

187 I believe OPT (a disastrous de facto immigration work-around) may be eliminated completely. I think it's not statute, it's a creation of the bureaucracy via rule-making. Thus subject to elimination without Congress. Could be wrong but I think that's the case. And it should obviously be done, immediately.

The sob stories that are legit (small in number) aren't even a consideration, nationally, when one considers the huge and horrible impact of H1-B/OPT/etc abuse and (under collapsed standards) "legitimate" uses.

195 187 I believe OPT (a disastrous de facto immigration work-around) may be eliminated completely. I think it's not statute, it's a creation of the bureaucracy via rule-making. Thus subject to elimination without Congress. Could be wrong but I think that's the case. And it should obviously be done, immediately.

The sob stories that are legit (small in number) aren't even a consideration, nationally, when one considers the huge and horrible impact of H1-B/OPT/etc abuse and (under collapsed standards) "legitimate" uses.

So Elon can go eff himself in the face (to use his colorful and erudite formulation).

199 @KalshiPolitics
James Talarico has a 63% chance to beat Ken Paxton in the Texas Senate race, according to Kalshi traders.

But what percentage of Texas Senate traders are buying Yes on Talarico?
• All Americans: 46%
• Texans: 42%
• Non-Texas: 48%

Interesting to see this breakdown of betting odds. Essentially, Talarico is favored in the betting odds at Kalshi because of blue states hundreds of miles away from Texas insisting he's going to win.
Posted by: TheJamesMadison

So how does Kalshi get 63%, when only 46% of bettors are for him? Are those 46% putting down that much more money than the 54% betting on Paxton?

I've seen 2 polls in the last day that have Paxton winning. Not because the race has changed. Because it's the middle of October and this literally happens every single election.

The media polls are as corrupt as the media. They are used to energize the left and depress our votes. As we get closer to election day they start to reflect reality so they can save even some credibility.

You’d think it’s crazy for the left to bother with a ballot measure that allows late term abortions in Idaho. But the left fights on all fronts, even when there’s a low chance of winning.

Posted by: EveR

Romney was a straight polling miss--there were two tracks in that race. One assuming that Romney would win narrowly, the other assumed that Obama's new coalition was still large enough even after the glow was gone, to win in 2012. Plus, as we know now, probably a bit of fraud in swing states which has grown like cancer by 2020.

Right now, the better pollsters could and should be using early voting and vote requests to rectify errors in likely voting screens instead of asking about chances of voting or using past recall screening on their votes in 2024. So far, early electorate is whiter, older, and more GOP than 2022 which is the closest past midterm. Can vary a bit by states as VA is an exception to the general trend right now.

Blue X is saying, "Ha! our EV numbers are way up over 2022 everywhere--blue tsunami!!"

Red X is saying, "Yes, but not in counties you need and not in demographics you're counting on; youth and blacks. Plus, it looks like your shooting your wad all on the first day as your number drop off after."

And the Blue X cope is, "well, our guys are all going to show up on Election Day 'cause they don't trust vote-by-mail 'cause of Trump now."

Also, I'd note: 2022 was the high-water mark of Dem mail vote cheating. Most of the states still had Covid rules in place for ballots and voting.

262 It's too late to make much betting the races. If you're going to do it, go early, and bet relatively small.

For instance, the day after the 2016 Indiana primary was a payday if you bet Trump in the general. Bookies had that at 25 or 26:1 that day.

266 >> Or both.

There are a lot of classic propaganda ops going on right now with both the media, social media and betting markets. Those dominions are staffed by people who peddle counter factual information and try to move opinion through repetition across those mediums. I am a little disappointed at platforms like X, because it seems a lot of the fake accounts and activity is not being caught, and allowed to persist. Regular media audiences are shrinking and it’s mostly bias confirmation for liberals. Almost no honest person believes them anymore. The betting markets are clearly overwhelmed by foreign and domestic liberal influences. Polls too. The bias is something even a small child with basic reasoning and math skills could see. It’s why everything is a big surprise when things move in the other direction.

Targeting young males with questionable impulse control. It's not as bad as online sports betting, but this is a malicious industry preying almost exclusively on young males, many underage or close to it.

Yes, I know and agree that nobody is forcing anyone to gamble. But literally the entire sports, media, and gambling industries are lined up to pressure and prey on naive young men.

If this were happening to young ladies, there would be criminal prosecutions. But who cares about destroying men's lives? I've seen what gambling addictions can do to families, and I'm seeing it played out in real time with teenage kids in the family-friends circle.

It may not have been that the Russians were officially involved, there is a chance that Tucker and everyone else affected were buying bot-driven engagement and the company (companies) they were using were working through Yandex as the cheapest data centers.
"buying likes" for online content is a current scandal, it is used to drive advertising engagement, and justify the prices charged for advertising.

everyone I spoke to who went to Vegas told me they 'just about broke even'. It is a running joke to me. I once blew 20 dollars in a small casino in Winnemucca, so I am the only person to lose money gambling in Nevada.

335 That's pretty weak sauce to bounce a sitting congressperson out, considering insider trading is highly illegal.

If they deport her she can stay in Congress as long as she likes. Let the Dems be the one to fire her.

336 If this were happening to young ladies, there would be criminal prosecutions. But who cares about destroying men's lives? I've seen what gambling addictions can do to families, and I'm seeing it played out in real time with teenage kids in the family-friends circle.

I remember a story from when Riverboat Casinos were opened in IL that a dude from Joliet came home one day to find his stay at home wife had rung up 70,000 dollars in debt. And this was probably in the 90s dollars.

337 s there extradition treaty with Somalia?

If they have her, she will flee. She raked in billions probably and has no reason to risk it. But I doubt they have her -- she probably has dozens of high power dems telling her she is untouchable.

Even the admitted theft is enough to live well enough somewhere besides the US and Somalia. No camera time though.

It's a tall wooden cylinder used to support a fence. But that's not important now.

And don't call me Shirley.
