Tuesday Overnight Open Thread - June 10, 2025 [scampydog]
DIVE BAR! accessory. A bit of Old Swill on tap now and again is better than drinking out of an old leather shoe.
One of the most iconic users of tin over cardboard signs were breweries, which began using them for advertising in the late 19th century. These signs, featuring the distinctive designs and became fixtures in taverns, bars, and distributors across the county. During World War II, tin became a valuable resource for the war effort, leading to a decline in the production of tin over cardboard signs. Many existing signs were repurposed or recycled to support the war effort, making surviving examples from this era particularly rare and sought after by collectors. After the war, the golden age of signs began to wane as new advertising mediums such as television and radio gained prominence. Many signs were discarded or replaced with newer materials, contributing to their scarcity today.
Jukebox history. Seeburg, Rock-Ola, Wurlitzer, and more.
Is the jukebox destined for extinction or just a rebirth for a mobile world? Here's a rundown of what really happened in the course of jukebox history.DIVE BARS!, a jukebox, and raspy/sexy voices go together like grit and charm - rough, but somehow still fuego. Or is it eyeliner at midnight and questionable decisions?

I taught there. Amazing people.
The kids were amazing. I taught at an after school school. Classes ended at 10pm. And then detention.
I stayed one night to try to help a kid in detention. Left at 11pm.
Very nice buses were there to take kids home. I walked back to my apartment. Kids were all over the place. 11pm. Family Mart - kids were filling up on Ramen. Others were hanging out at a small park.
Not to mention my church I found there...
South Korea rules.

You did NOT want to see what that place looked like when the lights were turned all the way up.
Every table was barely held together by spit and a prayer because they were covered with carvings of patrons' names.
Decent burritos for lunch, though. But don't look to closely at them, either.

"You Never Even Called Me by My Name" is a song written by Steve Goodman and John Prine. Prine requested to be uncredited on the song, as he thought it was a "goofy, novelty song" and did not want to "offend the country music community". Goodman released the song on his eponymous 1971 debut album Steve Goodman to little acclaim. [Wiki]
The late, great, inimitable Steve Goodman.

First, let me set the stage - the bar was in the basement of a building with the requisite poor lighting and stank of beer, piss, weed, cigs and youth.
The men's room was simply a space with rough troweled concrete on the walls and floor with one, count them, one red clay pipe stuck into the floor. That was it.

- bring your DIVE BAR tales. And wisdom.
Used to party at Luigi's, on Elysian Fields Ave., out by UNO. The Radiators would play live there frequently before they got big-ish.
The floors were sticky, the pool table wasn't level, and the college babes were really into young Bif's super tan (from working 6x12 in the Brown & Root Pipe Yard across the river) and mullet. Them were the days. Overtime kicked in on Thursday before lunch. Net cash flow after taxes was $450 / week. Joined the Army so I'd have a less manual labor intensive job (bwahahahaha) and took a 75% pay cut / month.
Wisdom...uhhhh...don't stand in front of the f-150 sized speakers.

I'm from a really small farming community. But we had a hotel - strip club on main street. The windows were all covered. Us kids knew something adult was going on...
There's an even smaller farming community nearby. My 90 year old Uncle who passed away in February told me they used to have a strip club there.
I had to ask him. What kind of strippers would come to this small town.
The response. "Pretty ones. No one will pay for ugly strippers."

I was 16 going into a very sketchy bar with hardpan floors. Tin walls. Beer in bottles only. And one Coke bottler, which I bought.
The comedian was a woman with a bare midriff and a 1.5 inch appendix scar. She was nervous telling Norde Americano jokes after we walked in. She was not attractive, even when I was full of testosterone. The clientele was too drunk to notice us. We left after 20 minutes.

Had a little sunken dance floor, with bars and barstools along the perimeter so the old guys could leer at the college girls. Shitty loud dance music. Electronic dartboards, frequently triggered by the shitty loud dance music before you threw a dart. Pull-tabs served from a little counter in the corner, run by a woman who was the model for Marge Simpson's sisters.
Drank whiskey-n-cokes, rum-n-cokes, whatever-n-cokes because the bartenders couldn't hear me over the shitty loud dance music. Or they just didn't care.

One of the classic dive bars is about 15m from me in the Catskills. It's called Snyder's. It's on a wooded road and looks like the building might fall down. It's been featured in NYS travel guides . Jars of pickled eggs and pig's feet on the bar.

Now here's a dive bar. My fren and I went in and wanted to smoke and drink, so we figured we'll just light up and smoke until someone tells us to go outside. So we lit up. The bartendress in a wifebeater and jeans and scraggaly hair comes from behind the bar and says "I've got to tell you, it's illegal to smoke in a bar in California." We said Okay, got it. She... didn't really tell us to leave... and a few minutes later, she was at a table chatting with some other customers, smoking.

A gentleman heard me asking a lady at the counter about tipping. He told me there was no tipping in South Korea. I got used to that real fast.
So, a young guy from the hotel shows up and gathers my luggage. We step outside.
I am on the other side of the planet.
I looked up at the sky. The stars.
And the guy with my luggage was long gone.

Any varnished wood will be worn raw in spots. Lighting will be marginal. Advertising signs will be old. The bar tender is probably the owner. Don't expect upscale liquors...or Guiness stout.
There's at least an even chance that the place will be named for the owner (or previous owner) Example. - 'Fred's'.
I've spent time in dozens of such, all over the eastern U.S.
Now, we can move on to biker bars, a different genre.

"A dive bar is like porn."
My addendum: "like low budget porn"*
low budget (&/or amateur porn): you can see the shadows of the boom mikes; and often the boom mikes themselves are inadvertently lowered into the scenes. (oops!) The cinematography itself is about as varied as a police custodial interview-- you know what I mean. Two chairs, one on either side of a plexiglass partition.
* gentrified, high budget porn is the same quality as a Hollywood movie. I think a lot of legit film directors make these. Money is money.

They transferred me down Island to work for ComSubPac partly because I was having WAY too much fun in Wahiawa. 85 Toga Party? Yeah... me... The Assassin Game all over base... yeah...
But the end came soon after the Tsunami Party... where there was an earthquake in Alaska, so they sent all the married folks home, and restricted all us single folks to base...
Sooo... being as how we were in a Valley at the tip top of Oahu... I cranked the stereo, pulled out an ice chest of beer... got out my surf board, put on the leash, and sat down in a lawn chair... when folks were coming back from work? 'What ya doin?'... waitin for the Tidal Wave. Big Murph, a friend, got out his dive gear, and sat down beside me...
By 1 AM when the next shift of Operators got off shift... even Security had joined the party.

Koots was more fun in the 1970's, certainly. I lived about two blocks from there in the 80's, and it had calmed down a bit but was still plenty jumpy on weekends.

I think they were hanging out at the Carousel until the owner kicked them out. Dude must have balls of steel. I don't know where the Angels go to drink nowadays.
Of course there were any number of little neighborhood dive bars back in those days. The Billiken. Fireside Lounge. The Oasis. The Spenard Lounge. PJs. Buckaroo Club.

Having departed one seedy bar after a syphilitic whore and her pimp started paying too much attention to us, we were headed towards home when we spotted an open door.
Inside the door were a few tables and chairs, a bar made of a couple of planks across some tall sawhorses, and a refrigerator full of beer.
We were starting to put a dent in the beer supply, when the fluent Spanish-speaker in our group urgently said, "Guys, lets get out of here! The bartender just asked me to take him home with me!"
That was when we finally noticed the place was filled with nothing but men. Manly men. Who looked like they'd want to do manly things in the manner of men. We had somehow stumbled into the only gay bar in Honduras.
We beat a hasty retreat and slogged home in a tropical downpour, with water over our ankles.

Pretty laidback place, though. Not nearly as high-pressure as the Bush Company or any of the others.
I recall when some friends of mine went to the opening of a new club called "The Gay '90s".
"You do understand that this is a gay bar and the strippers are men, right?"
"Nah... the girls just dress up like saloon girls from the Gold Rush days."

Most people couldn't figure out how they stayed in business. Me, I soon figured out that they were laundering money. "See, Mr. IRS Dude? We sell beers for $2 each, and here are our receipts for ordering fifty million kegs of beer from the wholesaler. So that explains how we're making $100,000 per night." Never mind that most of the beers went out the door for $0.05...
Naturally, the places were always packed.

I noticed the sunset location varies several degrees depending on the season.
-----------
Tonight is full Moon, the Strawberry Moon (last full Moon of astronomical spring, or June full Moon, depending on which convention you prefer). It's also a major lunistice peak. Tonight's full Moon (07:43Z, 03:43AM EDT), will be about the lowest in can be over the horizon at meridian. That's 26.5 degrees here, which also means the Moon rises and sets about as far south as it can ever.
Yep, sunrise and set angle vary with the seasons, which depends on Sol's declination. The angle the ecliptic makes with the horizon and sunset and sunrise determines timing of twilight and how fast it gains altitude.

Two on the second floor, one in a basement.
Tile floors, plastic walls, loooong bars with the same 3 beer taps every 4ft and staircases so narrow you're rubbing navels with whatever man is going there other way. Jukebox and multiple pool tables, of course. Wine was "red" or "white" and came out of a box on the shelf.
One was the only 24hr bar at the time, so it was popular with returning sailors and there was always this one midget in there and he would reliably pick a fight with any Pacific Islanders who walked in.
The other one was frequented by the emotionally busted office clerks drowning their sorrows before heading back to whatever 8x10 cell he could afford after the divorce.
Both were places to walk in, park up, and drink with your change sitting on the bar in front of you next to the ashtray ready to pay for the next beer. The closest thing to conversation was yes to the bartender asking "another one?" or no to whatever lonely drunk imagined someone else might care about him and his problems. Just "no".
The downstairs dive was rowdy.
Good times.
I'd clean forgotten about them until tonight.

If you want to see the exact topocentric coordinates of all this at your exact location, use timeanddate.com with a URL in the form:
"www.timeanddate.com/sun/@lat, long" where lat and long are your exact coordinates. Use 6 or 7 decimal places for good accuracy.

Itaewon, or downtown had the Seoul Pub, an English style establishment run by a German ex-pat with Australian citizenship named Guenther. Had Guiness on tap, and bangers and beans and a few other gustatory accouterments that were pretty rare for South Korea. Prices weren’t too bad. My buddy complained that Guenther wouldn’t offer favorable exchange rates when converting dollars to won, he noted the bank just down the street had better rates.
“Yes, but zee bank vill not surf you a bier” was his retort. LOL

It was cloudy at sunset/moonrise tonight, and I couldn't see the Moon rising so far south. I can see it now, through some clouds obscuring it a bit.
This is lowest a full Moon can be within less than a degree, maybe 1/2 degree. The Moon's lowest declination will be tomorrow around 8PM, so tomorrow's culmination will be at 26.1 degrees, lower than tonight by 0.4 degrees, and still looking pretty full.
To appear at the lowest possible, you'd have to have full Moon appear directly on the June solstice, and the declination minimum happen exactly then as well (within a few hours). We're getting about as close to that now as we ever get.

Unlike other automonous vehicle companies, @Tesla had its customers:
1. Pay for the R&D.
2. Pay for the cars.
3. Do the AI training.
The world is about to change deeply.
I've been doing a bunch of consumer research by interviewing customers of @waymo (a competitor).
They almost universally tell me:
1. They don't want to own a car anymore.
2. They don't want to drive anymore.
3. They don't want to take Uber anymore.
And Tesla can underprice Waymo AND provide a better experience to boot. Oh, and because @elonmusk got us to pay already the Tesla network will be profitable almost from the start.
Why did I do that research?
Early adopters tell me how everyone else will behave I've learned many times in my career.

Rainier Beer, aka Vitamin R, the elixir of my youth and college days. The brand bounced around different ownerships after the original Rainier brewery in the Georgetown neighborhood was sold to Heilman and then to the current owners, Pabst, but the good news is that it has gotten popular again with the college crowd and working man.
Sadly, however, I was told just last week that Henry Weinhard's is no more. The first "craft" beer I remember, from Portland, Oregon, was indeed a legend.
But as the beer is but a memory, as was the city it came from. Once a fantastic place to visit or live, Portland, for all intents and purposes, is now gone, too. Leftism is an evil bitch.

I highly recommend the desktop version of Stellarium, if you're interested in all this. It will display more information than you can shake a stick out. You can have it project the ecliptic, equator, hour angle circles, invariable plane and all that on the sky view. There you can see how the angle and altitude of the ecliptic vary over the day.
You can get a good handle on how things behave seasonally from that.

Dad would bring home Lucky Lager, in the stubby bottles, for years. IIRC it was brewed in Vancouver, WA. Then one time, he suddenly changed to Heidelberg in the keg bottle, and that was his beer of choice every evening after a hard and long, blue collar day. Brewed by Carling Brewery, Tacoma, WA.
He would buy Rainier once in a while, it was usually during a summer neighborhood gathering, like Memorial or Labor Day, or 4th of July.
It was strange at our house when I was growing up that sometimes a beer or two in our refrigerator would simply disappear, about the time when I turned about 14 or 15. It never happened when dad first got home after a long day and cracked the first one, it seemed to happen when he would fall asleep in his chair after having 4 or 5 and finishing dinner. And they would collect in the old refer in the garage, hidden behind the cans of pop and other things mom kept in there.
To this day, it's a mystery.

On the ride to Lake Tapps in the mid 70's to take a spin in somebody's dad's ski boat, we would stop at the little Lake Tapps store on the back side of the lake and buy Columbia beer, 99 cents a six of cans.
It tasted horrible, but as college students, we found as long as you put enough ice in the cooler, it wasn't bad as long as you drank it fast enough. The savings on beer went to pay for gas for the ski boat.

First, I needed a piece of steel plate. Had to liberate that from a welded-up bracket no longer needed for its original use. Break out the plasma cutter. And the angle grinder. OK, I have a sturdy plate. Lay out and drill four holes for the studs on the seat slides. Did it wrong. Twice! Ended up slotting the holes. OK, it fits the seat slides. Wut?? The seat slides don't slide. Somebody had welded blocks on them to prevent them from sliding. Cut those off. Then had to oil up the slides. and work them a whole lot to make them free again. Welded a piece of pipe onto the plate, made it an inch off-center fore/aft, so that I would an option to get fore-aft seat slide travel in range. Seat is in place, and looks like it belongs there, but it did come out of a Brand X step van.

Our 'intrepid liaison' quoted some DUmmies the other day, that were saying (delusionally, of course) some J6ers had become guv agents. What a fustercluck of misinformed aholes.
Whatever, right? But maybe it's one of their latest rumors? I dunno. Sick idiots.

The Colfax Tavern between Cimarron and Raton, NM is easy to find. For years I thought the place was called the COLD BEER tavern because that is what is painted on the side of the building in 6 foot tall letters.

It was strange at our house when I was growing up that sometimes a beer or two in our refrigerator would simply disappear, about the time when I turned about 14 or 15. It never happened when dad first got home after a long day and cracked the first one, it seemed to happen when he would fall asleep in his chair after having 4 or 5 and finishing dinner. And they would collect in the old refer in the garage, hidden behind the cans of pop and other things mom kept in there.
To this day, it's a mystery.

Brings back good memories of sneaking the occasional beer out of the fridge in the 'utility' room - but only after I was 18 which was the legal drinking age where we lived back then...

Ok, I just looked it up, and Concentration was relaunched in the late 80's with Alex Trebek. Hugh Downs hosted the original that launched in 1958. So we're both right, but you are still on my lawn..

It was one of my favorite spots in NM. The woman who runs has a master degree in speech pathologies. I found that to uniquely appropriate skill set for running a saloon. Especially after 11 pm. She brings bands and host other things. Peeps drive from all over to be there. My first time I ended up photographing a wedding - they couple spaced out getting pics. It was a hoot. Another time I bought a "limited edition t-shirt" and sent it off to the boy spawn. When he went there the first time I made him wear the shirt. She recognized it in a hot second. Boy spawn was a minor royal for a couple hours. This place checks all the boxes.

Story. First time I purchased beer was in Regis, MT. Asked for a couple of cases - purchased from an off-sale bar. Bartender charged me double. I said, "That's a bit expensive." He said, "You want the beer or not." I handed over the money.

Well, "high loon" was at 1:20AM EDT. Meridian, transit, culmination. That's the lowest full Moon I'll see for 18.6 years. In half that, 9.3 years, it will be at the minor lunistice peak, and the solstice full Moon will be close to the highest it will ever be.

Ballantine's India Pale Ale (the original IPA) featured those rebus puzzles under their caps, too. Newark, NJ at one time rivalled Milwaukee with the number of brewers within its borders - Ballantine, Pabst, Budweiser, Krueger (not old enough to say I tried that one - I think it was Krueger that introduced canned beer, though..)

The little dive bar around the corner from me is going on about 55 years now. Same owner. Three generations frequent it.
I stop in after work and get a Sierra Nevada pale ale "to go" (as one bartender calls me) every night after work. It's a cool place but my bar hopping days are pretty much over.
I support them because they did a big fuck you to the city and state during covid. Stayed open, maskless and didn't blink.

Kash Patel: “I literally just got off the phone with the Indian government… I said, I need your help.”
He added, “The CCP is targeting the U.S. population, and we want India’s support.”
Patel confirmed that the FBI and Indian authorities are now working together in a coordinated crackdown on the illicit drug trade.
This marks a significant development in U.S.-India intelligence and law enforcement cooperation

Tonight, the full Strawberry Moon is on the rise, with the moment of syzygy at 07:43 Zulu this morning, or 3:43AM EDT.
This is the peak of the major lunistice cycle, when the Moon's equatorial orbital inclination is greatest. This varies over an 18.6 year nodal precession cycle, and produces a range of equatorial inclination of 18.3 to 28.6 degrees. Thus, the Moon can appear 5.1 degrees higher or lower than the sun. The "sub-lunar" point varies accordingly.
At any rate, the full Moon tonight is going to be the lowest on the horizon that it can appear, and rise and set about as far south as it can. This varies with your latitude and longitude, but it will be minimum it can ever be for your location.

Cats get stressed very easy. They exhibit hiding and lethargic behavior as a result. She might want to hide under a bed or behind a couch.
Just make sure she knows where the litter box is, food and water and give her time. She'll be fine as long as she starts eating and drinking. Put her stuff near her and give her space to get some nourishment.

Sleeping and resting a lot is about 85% of a cat's existence, as far as I can tell. The other 15%, mine is desperate to get outside, but it seems that yours has been through some trauma and she's probably glad to be home where it's warm and dry and food is available.

I took in a stray cat who had been living feral for a while, turned out she was a rescue who got chased off by the cats already in the home.
I lured her indoors with food and left the door open all summer, and she never left the house.
It turned out she belonged to a house two doors down so I arranged with the lady to keep her and I renamed the cat Chloe.
Chloe didn't take a step outside for a year.

That was the big tell for me that the jab was both completely untested, and probably toxic. International law is really pissy about forcing experimental or fatal treatments on the citizens of foreign countries
It is the sort of thing that has gotten leaders hanged in the past.

Outdoor cats are too much.
Even when they were here in Winter, I guarded my heart because so much can happen outside.
Trumpy would go to sleep with my late mother, which amused her.
I remember the cats being very zoomy at night. That's why a quiet Snowflake is disconcerting.

1) Have you seen a topo map of S.F.?
2) We really don't have a central downtown in the sense that that's where all the attention is. You can march down Market St., which bisects half the city at a 45 degree angle, but the geometry doesn't make things work.

Feed her up, if she isn't eating check her mouth for bad teeth or injuries. Check if she is drooling badly, smell for bad breath. Check for limping or cringing if you pet her, check her neck and chest. and then her back and flanks for scabs. Look for soft lumps, those could be abscesses. Check her feet and legs for tenderness. Touch her nose on your cheek to feel if she has a fever, it should be cool.
Put your ear on her side to listen to her breathing for rattles or wheezes.
Check her scat in the litterbox to see if it is firm or diarrhea.
If she is still lo-rez after a week, consider a check up at the vet's.

Cats eat grass to settle their stomachs. Sometimes they puke the grass back up again, and other times they pass through and are pooped out.
Sometimes they don't go all the way and like this evening one of the cats had a piece of grass sticking out of his ass. He was amazingly miffed when I pulled it out the rest of the way.

Democrats' New Effort to Outreach to Male Voters Features the Head of the DNC Whining and Crying That Fembot David Hogg Is Being Too Mean to Him
This is from yesterday but the Democrat-Media Party riots pushed it down the priority list.
There is leaked audio from a Zoom call between Democrat National Committee head Ken Martin and DNC Vice Chair for Choad Inspection David Hogg. Ken Martin is nearly in tears -- or actually in tears --as he complains that David Hogg is making his job too hard and that David Hogg isn't Positioning Him For Success.Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin told party leaders in a recent private conversation that he's unsure about his ability to lead the party because of infighting created by Vice Chair David Hogg. "I'll be very honest with you, for the first time in my 100 days on this job ... the other night I said to myself for the first time, I don't know if I wanna do this anymore," he said in a May 15 Zoom meeting of DNC officers, according to a recording obtained by POLITICO. In the recording, an emotional Martin describes being deeply frustrated by the fallout over Hogg, who has ignited a firestorm in the party by vowing to spend $20 million in safe-blue primaries to oust incumbent Democrats he believes are ineffective. Martin paused twice while appearing to choke up. The intraparty feud, Martin said on the recording, is making it more difficult for the party to do its work -- and had ruined his ability to demonstrate leadership. "No one knows who the hell I am, right? I'm trying to get my sea legs underneath of me and actually develop any amount of credibility so I can go out there and raise the money and do the job I need to to put ourselves in a position to win," Martin said, addressing Hogg. "And again, I don't think you intended this, but you essentially destroyed any chance I have to show the leadership that I need to. So it's really frustrating." It was an extraordinary admission from the chair of the Democratic Party, just a few months after being elected to lead the party through its post-2024 crisis. The nearly two-minute clip does not include the entire conversation, including how Hogg and others may have responded to Martin. Asked for an interview, Martin, 51, sent a statement through a spokesperson. In it, he said, "I'm not going anywhere." ... Asked for comment, party leaders rallied behind Martin, expressing confidence in his leadership. In a statement, DNC Associate Chair Shasti Conrad, who attended the Zoom meeting and was briefly mentioned on it, said Martin "showed vulnerability in a private conversation" and "stood up" for the Democratic Party. "He shows up with authenticity. Always," she said. "That's what you'll hear on the tape."He's an authentic pussy. Perfect representative of the Democrat Masculine Ideal. I took an old Buzzfeed quiz titled "Which Sex & the City Character Are You?" I was hoping for Samantha, but I got "DNC Head Ken Martin." I didn't even know he was on the show. I think AI took over the quiz to call me a f&ggot.

The Vigilant Fox
@VigilantFox BREAKING: Trump tells Fort Bragg troops their fallen brothers didn't die so LA could burn at the hands of "third world lawlessness." President Trump addressed the chaos in California head-on in a fiery speech at Fort Bragg--and the place ignited. "Before going further and want to say a few words about the situation in Los Angeles, California. Have you heard of the place?" "Where I've deployed thousands of National Guard troops and hundreds of Marines to protect federal law enforcement from the attacks of a vicious and violent mob and some of the radical left." "They say that's not nice, well if we didn't do it, there wouldn't be a Los Angeles--it would be burning today, just like the houses were burning a number of months ago." Then he delivered the moment that brought the house down: "Generations of army heroes did not shed their blood on distant shores only to watch our country be destroyed by invasion and third world lawlessness here at home, like is happening in California." "As commander in chief I will not let that happen. It's never going to happen."

In a sense they did. Shrub let them die in the sandbox so as not to upset the people who brought all these illegals in.
If he had rounded up every Clinton Nat Sec official and hanged them on 9/12 and then launched a real war on the jihadis not only would most of those fallen servicemen still be alive we wouldn't have 40M southern invaders burning our cities right now

In retrospect...
This is correct. I knew it was all a mistake when Abu Ghraib broke. That story was pushed by that guy who was "most decorated soldier ever" or whatever with the help of his Leftist girlfriend. They were willing to undo the American war effort for some money/political points.
I said then, I say now, a country that does not want to survive, won't.
As a country we still are not committed to our own survival. Do we have the will to send crying mommies home? Do we have the will to take the people buying bricks for "peaceful protesters" down for criminal conspiracy? So far, no.

Leaders don't depend on someone else to "give him a chance." Leaders *take* the chance, and prove it.
You're not *leading,* bro. You're following while pretending to lead. Hogg, contemptible idiot asshole though he may be, *is* leading. You let him do it, because you can't. You can't because you're not a leader. You're a back-bencher pussy who is losing control through incompetence and an absence of ambition or tenacity.

I don't have a problem with the idea of the invasion, even in hindsight. Saddam needed killing, and Iraq was an indirect but correct reaction to 9/11.
The problem is that after we dragged the cocksucker out of his spiderhole, that pussy Colin Powell jumped in with his stupid "you break it, you bought it" doctrine and had us stick around and try to fix the country. Bad move. Every bit of American blood after Saddam was captured is on his hands.

When Donald was a boy he started working for his father who was already a pretty wealthy real estate guy. I remember reading an article during the 2016 election that was original written years ago about his first job which was to maintain the tenant laundery machines in his father's apartment buildings.
They interviewed some of the tenants who had lived in the buildings at the time, many of them elderly, Jewish people, and they all praised young Donald as a very friendly and helpful young man who went out of his way to make sure everything was right for the tenants. Trump was born wealthy and these were very middle class people. I don't think it's an act, he was raised right.

Statistically, very few. Most of them won't live long enough to reach that point. Even setting aside the probability of suicide, these things are *very* hard on the body. Cross-sex hormones, dangerous surgeries with ongoing infection risks, a generally high-risk lifestyle including much higher than average incidence of drug abuse, etc.

Illegals do pay sales tax. And the ones with stolen identities (or who were given SSNs by the government) probably pay some nominal income tax that all gets returned through the EITC and other carve-outs.
But illegals do not pay in more than they take out. If they did, we wouldn't have any illegals.

Yup. You *can* remake a civilization at swordpoint, but you have to slaughter a *lot* of fighting-age men to do it. The more alien the culture you are trying to conquer, the more slaughter it takes. A third is the minimum for a war between aliens. You have to not only defeat them, but destroy their culture by killing literally *everyone* who can fight for it and wiping out an entire generation, which amount to a large plurality or outright majority of males aged about 13 to about about 25. Slaughter the men, take the best of their women for wives and remake it in your own image under ruthless control for the next few generations.
It can be done, but the blood cost is astronomical - and there is no short cut. If you're not prepared to do that - and virtually nobody is, even if the capability is there - then don't talk about "nation building." Just kill people and break things until they back off, then go home. Then do it again every generation. That's the alternative.

Unhinged ABC "News" Liberal Terry Moran Will Get a Head Start on That Podcast Career He's Been Itching to Begin
And Chuck Todd gets a podcast! And Chris Cillizza gets a podcast! And Chris Cuomo gets a podcast! And Don LeMon gets a podcast! And Joy Reid gets a podcast!
And now, Jake Tapper's liberal pal Terry Moran gets a podcast! You all get a podcast! You'll all get the chance to be the Liberal Joe Rogan!Collin RuggFox confirms the story.
@CollinRugg BREAKING: Terry Moran is out at ABC News, according to CNN's Brian Stelter. ABC News, the same outlet that rigged the debate against Trump before the 2024 election, accused Moran of not being "fair." "We are at the end of our agreement with Terry Moran and based on his recent post, which was a clear violation of ABC News policies, we have made the decision to not renew." "At ABC News, we hold all of our reporters to the highest standards of objectivity, fairness, and professionalism, and we remain committed to delivering straightforward, trusted journalism." Laughable. Moran was a perfect representation of ABC News. He should not have been fired.

Here's the funny thing - I don't think trump is very conservative, he's transactional. He does what the people who voted for him want, and fuck everyone else. If progressives were less hostile toward him, he no doubt would be a lot nicer to them. But progressives can't play nice, and Trump isn't someone who lets water roll off his back.
And get this - he's a fucking professional troller. He will troll your stupid ass, find every flaw you have, and exploit it. This guy spent decades building skyscrapers in Manhattan. He knows every trick.

Not at all. Something that is worthless is irrelevant. It has no value, neither positive or negative. A blackened crumb that falls off your toast is worthless. It isn't something you want, but it also does you no harm. It just sits there. You can leave it on your plate or brush it into the wastebasket or let it fall to the floor and, on balance, your life is exactly the same regardless of which route you choose. There is no value and no harm. It's just a breadcrumb.
If the GOP were merely worthless, it would be much better than it is. But it sadly *isn't* worthless. It does actual harm while lying to the rubes about its ambitions and motivations. If they just sad in their offices eating their salaries and otherwise doing nothing, we'd better off than we are with them doing things.

This brings me to a point I've been pondering a while now: the left needs a reformation. I would argue HAD their reformation, becoming more radicalized and fundamentalist. But the left needs their reformation to cool down and cut out their leftist loons.
The left is a religion on all but name. They have their demented, evil versions of origins, morality, deity, law, blasphemy, sacraments, doctrine, and order of worship. But they are taken over by the screaming freaky extremists, their worst, and least sane extreme. They have to reform so they can purge this influence and get back to their origins of rights, freedom, compassion, care for the poor, and upholding the downtrodden.

That's literally all of them. No hyperbole. J-schools and ed-schools have been turning out borderline retarded glassy-eyed apparatchiks for generations.
Want to have a news outfit? Do not hire from J-schools. Not even once. Forcibly remove anyone who walks through your doors with a degree in journalism, organizational communications, mass media or related fields. The only media-related degrees on your payroll should be the technical staff who run the equipment who went to a trade school masquerading as a university - though even they should be viewed with suspicion.

No, not the same. But still a borderline unprecedented move. As I said up there somewhere, last year there would have been no response at all and he'd be renewed. Two years ago, ABC would have given him a raise.

Well I wouldn't hire anyone who claimed they were a reporter for a TV show. But these guys who run these stations do, then get into trouble and have to fire or pay huge settlements because of these idiots.
If I ran a news organization I would hire people to do research and crunch info, then have AI compile and set it up with animated personas 24 hours a day in a once per hour Headline News format. It wouldn't even have to make much money and show a profit.

It does seem true that hot bodied females get more views than (maybe more informed and resourceful) average males.

His base. Talking with Trump is like fornicating with the devil. Unless you can demonstrate that you put him in his place and humiliated him, better to say you didn't talk to him at all. And since the nightly news probably isn't going to cover the evidence to the contrary, the people you're lying to aren't even going to notice.

Entirely possible. When the "Speaking With American Men" thing broke a couple of weeks ago, one of the pieces of commentary was from a Dem strategist who didn't like it because she thought that base wanted more unhinged insanity, not less.
And she is probably right. The Dem base is increasingly insane. It's also diminishing, but getting more and more radical. And Karen - who is the heart and soul of the Party - does *not* want a phony "return to the center" or any such nonsense, she wants more molotov cocktails and derangement.
If things go like they have been, Newsom may well be able to make himself the shoe-in for the nomination. He'll lose 40 states, but he'll gallop of the nomination finish line. It comes down to whether any of the spooky bastards at the top have the will to prevent Newsom or someone like him from taking the nomination and leading them to electoral disaster.

The Dem base wants a radical. The *Party* may want to try a fake "return to the center" thing, but the base doesn't. The Dem base is increasingly unhinged. With the old factions fracturing, Party control is anyone's game at the moment. As you said, the Biden faction (which doesn't actually exist because it's really the Kalorama faction) is scrambling. The Clinton faction is dead. The old-school "Union Democrat" blue-collar faction is gone, not even a rump power in the Party anymore.

Pro-Palestinian activists dressed as Hamas terrorists reenacted the October 7 Massacre in central Brussels during the third annual Samidoun-organized "Resistance Festival," which ran from June 6 to Sunday, June 8.
Videos from the event show masked men in keffiyehs and army fatigues pointing prop guns, while other actors play dead bodies heaped on the floor. When the men playing Hamas terrorists see that everyone is dead, they put their arms around one another and raise their hands in victory. Fake blood is also seen in the video.
The re-enactment, accompanied by music and a voice-over about “From the river to the sea,” was met with whoops, cheers, and applause from the audience.

If the Democrat powers-that-be didn't want Bernie in '16 or '20, nor Fauxcahontas or Mayor Buttplug in '20, I doubt the DNC will clear the field for AOC, Newsom, Mayor Buttplug, Harris, or any other communist in '28.

Trump: If Los Angeles or California Enters a State of Insurrection, I Will Put It Down
Don't tell the New York Times: Right now, there's a Conspiracy Theory that lefties are ordering full-face masks so that their street paramilitaries can fight the police even after tear gas has been deployed. The "evidence" for this conspiracy theory is photographs and videotape of the antifa riot masks being delivered. In other words -- more RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION AI CHEAPFAKES!
President Trump on Tuesday made clear he's considering stronger federal intervention in response to violent demonstrations in Los Angeles, sparked by a wave of federal immigration enforcement raids. While not committing to action, Trump said invoking the Insurrection Act remained an option if the violence escalates. Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump detailed what he described as "terrible" scenes from the previous evening, alleging that rioters had ripped up sections of concrete from the streets and hurled them at law enforcement vehicles. "If we didn't get involved, right now, Los Angeles would be burning," he said. The president has already drawn criticism from California Democrats for authorizing the National Guard's deployment to Los Angeles without the governor's consent. But Trump defended the move and hinted that further steps--including the use of federal troops--may be necessary. The Insurrection Act, first passed in 1807, gives the president legal authority to deploy U.S. military forces domestically to address insurrections or large-scale civil disturbances. Trump used the threat of the Act during the "Summer of Love" riots in 2020, and on Tuesday, he suggested similar conditions may be developing in Los Angeles.

@JDVance Gavin Newsom says he didn't have a problem until Trump got involved. Both of these photos were taken before the president authorized the national guard to go protect our border patrol in California. Does this look like "no problem"?Newsom and his stooge Karen Bass fomented and encouraged the riots, because their entire political movement exists for one purpose: to promote mass migration into our country. It is their reason for being. Democratic leadership has no solution for the economy, for prosperity, or for security. They use their power when they're in the majority to import millions of illegal immigrants and when they're in opposition they do everything possible to prevent deportations. Under Newsom's leadership, medicaid was extended to all illegal immigrants in 2024. This means that he elected to take healthcare from impoverished and disabled Californians and give it to illegal aliens. And now, everything is President Trump's fault? Give me a break. If you want to know why illegal aliens flocked to your state, stop accusing Donald Trump. Look in the mirror. If you want to know why border patrol fear for their lives over enforcing the law, look in the mirror. It was your policies that encouraged mass migration into California. Your policies that protected those migrants from common sense law enforcement. Your policies that offered massive welfare benefits to reward illegal immigrants. Your policies that allowed those illegal migrants (and their sympathizers) to assault our law enforcement. Your policies that allowed Los Angeles to turn into a war zone. You sure as hell had a problem before President Trump came along. The problem is YOU.

I'm probably mistaken but the Federal sites are being protected by the NG and Marines. That's why they were called up, for the most part. The local, county, and state police are taking care of the commie filth. If I recall, the Gov blowdried dipshit forbid the NG from doing anything, hence the Fed callup. I believe back in '92, those riots, the NG was called up to assist the locals. It was fine then. Different Gov, different time.

The intent of what they are doing is to continue to grow the foreign army of invaders to grow so they can deny a republican form of government to heritage Americans.
I suspect the founders would see this as exactly what they were thinking of an insurrection.

If the thugs show up again read them the riot act, cordon off area, then light them up.
Or just look menacingly at each other.
Either way is good.

The guy most responsible for the problems in LA is the head of SEIU, David Huerta. He put out the call to his thugs and things escalated from there.
He was arrested and arraigned, the last I heard.
So, no, the riots didn't start with ICE. They started because of an entitled thug.

It's that they don't get tired. because they are being organized and supplied with food and water.
Part of a riot is wearing out the other side. You'll never arrest everyone, but if you can tire them out and demoralize them, they go home. That is what the tear gas is about.
Gas masks, ear plugs, water bottles - these are elements of warfare, in that they prolong the violence. You need to focus on THAT. Don't just confront the rioter up front but find the vans supplying all the gear and food and water.

Oh, I agree, the sanctuary city policies are VERY insurrectiony and need to be dealt with. Harshly and strongly. And frankly, I'm disappointed in Trump for not yanking all federal funding from all states in "open rebellion against federal law" or however he would phrase it.

Cory Booker was a sudden choice for a minute like 6 weeks ago. He's forgotten already.
These people are flashes in the pan, getting quick exposure and then fading, not nearly enough people remembering their names or why they were important for a second.
This pattern repeats every 4 years. Plus, Newsom has an approval rating of something like -27. Maybe he pulls off a 2nd or 3rd place in NH. Maybe. But that's after he comes 11th in South Carolina.

NO: The *money* behind this has limits to its stupidity in California, and eventually this will die down....
or
YES: The *money* behind this wants next-level play out of this, and will achieve it by paying/coordinating a blue-on-blue incident involving city PD/State Patrol vs National Guard/Marines onsite. Said incident will be attempted arrest of a federal troop who leaves company of his compadres or a shooting incident over jurisdiction.

ICE might target the graduate ceremony of Santa Monica High School on Wednesday.
Stephen Miller is a graduate of SAMO and hates the school and particularly the Latino Community there. ICE officers were seen circling the area today, assessing accessibility and security options.
Vindictive prick. If you’re at risk of being picked up by ICE, I suggest laying low for a while. Maybe the school can arrange to have the ceremony broadcast over the internet.
did Miller flunk Spanish or something? What the hell is wrong with this guy? And why are so many Republican males so deliberately ugly?
I just can't. They are so evil. They want to destroy lives and hope and joy. They are killing everything that makes American life special.
If they weren't trying to instigate, these leaks wouldn't happen
CAncel the ceremony. Mail the diplomas. Put ICE out of their jobs if we ever regain power. Get anyone out of the way who won't go along with it
No!! What else do we cancel? Weddings? Funerals? Life? These kids deserve a graduation ceremony & if we start cancelling our life events cuz of these pricks then they've won.

Sigh. I get it, we're not a literary culture any more but... compare this to the Declaration of Independence:
"The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."

I've lived in L.A. and I'd go back if I found an opportunity, but it's true, most Angelenos stick to their area of the city, it's so sprawling and disjointed. It utterly lacks character as a city.

Correct, it was basically "disperse or we open fire". They didn't like to open fire often (not so much out of humanitarian concerns as it was just a legal hassle, judges tended to side with the mob), but it was the warning.

LA has plenty of constrictions but too many so it breaks up into a small cluster of townlets. The Harbor area is down by Long Beach

"a civil rights organization founded by Reverend Al Sharpton, is funded by a variety of sources, including corporations, unions, and individual donors. NAN has historically received funding from major corporations such as AT&T, Viacom, Walmart, Comcast, McDonald's, and Coca-Cola, among others. Additionally, unions like the American Federation of Teachers and the Service Employees International Union have also supported NAN financially. NAN also receives funding from individual donations, with some prominent philanthropists like Robert F. Smith being long-term supporters."

What's the difference between ordering a state militia to attack a federal facility and permitting an informal state militia to attack a federal facility?
BTW, I like the recent federal clown judge ruling that Trump can't use the AEA to deport.
Which is basically "it can't be an invasion because there must be a declared invasion."
Who declares an invasion?
"Well, the President except I find that he must delineate a long list facts to support his declaration that is all-but a declaration of war."
Is that in the statute?
"Well, no but that's not the point. I am the law!"
He's basically saying Congress must declare a war, after response to an actual physical invasion by troops lead by the leader of another country, before the AEA can be invoked.

Judge Dismisses Justin Baldoni's $400 Million Defamation Suit Against Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds and the New York Times
Plus: Simone Biles Attacks Riley Gaines
The couple spoke with the New York Times to get their defamation more play.
A federal judge has thrown out actor Justin Baldoni's $400 million lawsuit against actress Blake Lively and her husband, actor Ryan Reynolds, marking a decisive legal victory for the Hollywood couple. Baldoni had accused Lively of making false sexual harassment claims as part of an alleged reputational power play. However, the court found no actionable evidence to support the claims, dismissing the entire suit and paving the way for potential countersanctions against Baldoni and his affiliates. Key Details: Judge Lewis Liman ruled that Lively's statements in her civil rights complaint were legally privileged and non-actionable. The court also dismissed claims against Reynolds, Lively's publicist Leslie Sloane, and the New York Times. Lively's legal team is now seeking attorneys' fees, treble damages, and punitive damages against Baldoni and his Wayfarer company. Diving Deeper: The legal saga between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni stemmed from explosive allegations and counterclaims tied to their work on the film It Ends With Us. In December 2024, Lively filed a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department accusing Baldoni and producer Jamey Heath of sexual harassment and related misconduct. Baldoni responded with a $400 million defamation lawsuit, alleging Lively fabricated the claims to salvage her image following turmoil on the film's press tour. On Monday, U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman delivered a firm rebuke of Baldoni's claims. In a written opinion, Liman found that Lively's statements, confined to her CRD complaint, were privileged under the law and thus not grounds for defamation. Liman also dismissed related accusations that Reynolds, Sloane, or The New York Times knowingly spread false information about Baldoni, citing a lack of evidence that they acted with "actual malice."I get the idea that allegations in a lawsuit are privileged and cannot be the basis of a defamation claim, but how does that insulate them from repeating the defamations to a New York Times reporter, or getting their publicist to spread the allegations around?
Liberal judges love finding ways to dismiss defamation lawsuits against liberals and liberal propaganda organizations.
... Lively's attorneys, Esra Hudson and Mike Gottlieb, celebrated the ruling, calling it a "total victory and a complete vindication" for their client and those "dragged into [Baldoni's] retaliatory lawsuit." They further indicated intentions to pursue legal costs and damages from Baldoni and others associated with Wayfarer for what they termed "abusive litigation." The fallout from this legal drama may not be over yet. Judge Liman gave Baldoni's team until June 23 to amend and refile only limited claims regarding tortious interference and breach of implied contract. The broader defamation effort, however, is effectively dead in the water.In related news of lefties defaming people, overrated tumbling fireplug and Noted Quitter Simone Biles attacked Riley Gaines out of the blue for trying to keep men out of women's sports.
Gaines commented on this newest example of Stolen Women's Valor: a boy is now playing on a girl's softball team and you'll never guess. It turns out the boy is much, much better at softball than girls, and he "dragged" his team to the championship based mostly on his ability to absolutely dominate the female batters he was facing.
Trans Pitcher Marissa Rothenberger Drags Champlin Park to MN Girls Softball State TitleIt's very easy to win a girl's softball championship when your starting pitcher is Thor, God of Thunder.
The date was June 6, 2025, when for the first time in recorded history, a transgender biological male (XY) won a state championship in Minnesota Girls (XX) high school softball. Marissa Rothenberger -- born Charlie Dean Rothenberger until he began transitioning to a she at just 9 years old -- is now 6'0″ tall junior and the No. 1 pitcher for Champlin Park high school girls softball, which on Friday morning defeated Bloomington-Jefferson 6-0 in the 4A Minnesota State Championship. Rothenberger is the ace of the team's pitching staff and probably the best high school softball pitcher in the state of Minnesota. On Friday, the towering 17-year-old with long blonde hair pitched a complete-game shutout and held Bloomington Jefferson to just 3 hits, bringing Marissa's 2025 pitching statistics to a rest at 94 IP, 0.74 ERA, 0.65 WHIP and .176 BAA.
Last night, a man single-handedly carried his high school in Minnesota to a Class 4A Softball Championship.

Biles exploded at Riley Gaines for telling the truth. Biles even insinuated that Riley Gaines might be a little transgender herself:
Olympic legend Simone Biles is under fire for attacking former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines and defending the participation of biological males in female sports competitions. Key Details: Biles called Gaines "truly sick" and a "sore loser" in response to her criticism of a transgender athlete leading a Minnesota high school softball team. Biles suggested sports could introduce a transgender category but accused Gaines of bullying. The backlash was swift, with critics calling Biles' comments hypocritical and out of touch with concerns about fairness in women's sports. Diving Deeper: Simone Biles is now at the center of a growing firestorm over her recent defense of transgender athletes competing in women's sports. The gymnastics icon took aim at Riley Gaines, a 12-time NCAA All-American swimmer turned outspoken advocate for protecting women's sports, igniting a wave of backlash across social media. The controversy began when Gaines criticized the Minnesota State High School League for celebrating Champlin Park High School's softball championship -- a title secured in large part by a biologically male player, junior pitcher Marissa Rothenberger. The league posted a team photo with comments disabled, prompting Gaines to speak out on X. Biles jumped into the fray by attacking Gaines directly. "You're truly sick, all of this campaigning because you lost a race. Straight up sore loser," Biles wrote, referencing Gaines' 2022 competition against UPenn transgender swimmer Lia Thomas. In a follow-up post, Biles said Gaines should be "uplifting the trans community" and proposed creating a "transgender category in all sports." But Biles' attempt to frame her remarks as inclusive quickly backfired. "You bully them... One thing's for sure is no one in sports is safe with you around!!!!!" she added, escalating the personal nature of her criticism. ... Others accused Biles of ignoring the central issue: biological differences between men and women, especially in competitive athletics. "Simone Biles benefited from fair competition her whole career," one commenter wrote. "Now she's endorsing policies that erase that fairness for the next generation of girls."
NEW: Olympic gymnast Simone Biles has a meltdown after Riley Gaines criticized Minnesota for allowing a boy to take a high school girls softball team to the State Title.
— Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) June 7, 2025
Biles accused Gaines of looking like a man as she argued in favor of men playing in womens sports.
What a pic.twitter.com/eYc72KdfJL
Note that Biles attacked Riley for being a buff female athlete, telling her to "pick on someone her own size" which, she then added, would be a "man." She's basically claiming that Riley Gaines looks like a tranny. This from a woman who looks like Herschel Walker in one-piece bathing suit. This stubby, jacked Mannish Racist is now saying she didn't mean to be a bully and attack people for no reason.

I didn't really bother mentioning it. The basic story is that Blake Lively attempted a power-play to take away a movie from the guy who produced it and starred in it, and she was angry that he hadn't given in, so she invented a "sexual harassment" claim against him and then seeded that story in the press.
The guy, Justin Baldonni, sued her and her bitchass husband for defamation.

I'm not sure Biles' outburst and attack were some well-thought plan. Biles is highly erratic and mentally ill, and I think admittedly so. If nothing else, she was abused by Larry Nasser and all the ogres at USA gymnastics.
As to the "your own size" comment, I think Biles is an idiot and was confusing Gaines with the much-taller Lia Thomas in that famous pic.

It was made timely. Also prior to the lawsuit they had a sit down meeting where concerns were addressed and the future defendant agreed they would be addressed and corrected .

I can blame her for keeping silent when her fellow team mates were complaining, then claiming the high ground later and people acting like she was some crusader (so to speak) against Nassar. She came in late and said "oh yeah, me too."

I didn't really bother mentioning it. The basic story is that Blake Lively attempted a power-play to take away a movie from the guy who produced it and starred in it, and she was angry that he hadn't given in, so she invented a "sexual harassment" claim against him and then seeded that story in the press.
The guy, Justin Baldonni, sued her and her bitchass husband for defamation.

You're saying two different things, one of which I agree with and one I don't:
"I can blame her for keeping silent when her fellow team mates were complaining" -- Meh. I can see why should would keep quiet about something so personal, invasive and embarrassing. Especially when she was flying high and at least reaping some benefit from the years of abuse. I'll give her a pass on this.
"then claiming the high ground later and people acting like she was some crusader (so to speak) against Nassar" -- I agree with you on this.

It is impossible to make good decisions based on lies, and it is harder to succeed in the world as an individual or as a group when there is a system of lies or beliefs that conceal truths. The people who claim you have to search for the truth based on facts do have a point, though they have to have enough humility to realize they may get destroyed because they insist on looking for it

I know there's a general disdain for "professional" wrestling, but if you haven't watched some of the promos Kaufman cut while claiming to be the Intergender Wrestling Champion you are missing some of his best work. He totally *got* what it takes to be a good "heel" in the wrestling world, and he just pushed and pushed and pushed everyone's buttons. It was genius-level performance that a good chunk of the world wrote off as "only" professional wrestling.

It's a clusterfuck all around. Baldoni seems like a scumbag, but some of the things he's accused of are bullshit. Like the allegation he came into Lively's trailer when she was half-naked and breast-feeding. She invited him in, there's a text about it. So I think this is a "Pox on Both Houses" situation.

Agreed. It's silly to even be having these conversations. Men are obviously stronger than women, and chopping of kids dicks does not make them girls, and is some sick borderline satantic shit.
And if adults want to make themselves eunuchs, well, whatever. Taxpayers shouldnt pay for it, but otherwise, I guess they can do whatever they want.

That’s according to a recent report from Reduxx, which cites court documents showing Heather Rothenberger petitioned the Hennepin County District Court in 2017 to amend her child’s birth certificate.
The petition was granted, changing the child’s name from “Charlie Dean” to “Marissa” and the sex designation to female, Reduxx reports.
It says “parents” in the article, but just the mom’s name is listed for the court records. Is that normal?

I remember back in grade school in the 60s, almost all the girls couldn't throw overhand, hence the insult "you throw like a girl" directed at weak-armed boys.
But we had one tomboy girl who could throw AND swing the bat. And she got picked first on the playground more than once...

The rule makes legal and logistical sense.
Until you run in to a situation where it doesn't. But, you know, bad facts bad rules all of that.

Every plumber, actor, writer, politician, accountant, hit man, and extortionist is in the job to get paid. But that doesn't make it their job. He was a comedian, that was what he was billed at and claimed to be. Other comedians love him. Almost nobody actually found him to be funny, though.
I think the comparison to Norm Macdonald is great: he was all that Kaufman was without the aggressively abrasive personality and the lack of comedy. He did surreal stuff that made people laugh.

When the cousin at Smithfield tells the family that La Migra is systematically cleansing that and other large meat processors of illegals, the wider effect will be enormous.

Surprise! The Mind-Controlling Media Cult That Brought You Biden's Cheapfake "Presidency" Is Now Claiming That Videos Showing Arson and Violence in LA Are Also Cheapfakes
They literally never stop lying.
The New York Times says that if you're claiming that Democrats permit and encourage their street paramilitaries to commit violence to terrorize the population into supporting the Democrat agenda, you're pushing "conspiracy theories."
Misleading photographs, videos and text have spread widely on social media as protests against immigrant raids have unfolded in Los Angeles, rehashing old conspiracy theories and expressing support for President Trump's actions.Oh no, not that.
The flood of falsehoods online appeared intended to stoke outrage toward immigrants and political leaders, principally Democrats.It's a conspiracy theory to say that Democrats justify and excuse violence and chaos to advance their agenda, says a Democrat propaganda rag justifying and excusing violence and chaos to advance their agenda.
Literally no one thought "the entire city was engulfed in violence." In no riots is the entire city engulfed in violence. They're falsely claiming that conservatives are stupid and believe stupid things to make the case that we're wrong about the fact that the city was essentially paralyzed by violence. I mean, they shut down one of LA's most important highways, the 101.
They also added to the confusion over what exactly was happening on the streets, which was portrayed in digital and social media through starkly divergent ideological lenses. Many posts created the false impression that the entire city was engulfed in violence, when the clashes were limited to only a small part.
There were numerous scenes of protesters throwing rocks or other objects at law enforcement officers and setting cars ablaze, including a number of self-driving Waymo taxis. At the same time, false images spread to revive old conspiracies that the protests were a planned provocation, not a spontaneous response to the immigration raids.You mean like the California Democrat assemblyman who posted TikToks telling people that "something is going to happen" at the ICE detention center, not-so-subtly encouraging Democrat terrorists to make that something happen?
Someone posted a meme of a sci-fi helicopter doing loop-de-loops and killing Malcolm McDowell and the New York Times is taking this as "disinformation" that proves that we're all spreading "conspiracy theories."
The confrontation escalated on Monday as new protests occurred and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced -- on X -- that he was mobilizing 700 Marines from a base near Los Angeles to guard federal buildings. They are expected to join 2,000 members of the California National Guard whom Mr. Trump ordered deployed without the authorization of the state's governor, Gavin Newsom, who normally has command of the troops. The latest deployments prompted a new wave of misleading images to spread -- some purporting to show Marines and the military service's weapons in action. One was a still from "Blue Thunder," a 1983 action-thriller about a conspiracy to deprive residents of Los Angeles of their civil rights. It features a climactic dogfight over the city's downtown.
Darren L. Linvill, a researcher at Clemson University's Media Forensics Hub, said conservatives online were "building up the riots in a performative way "to help bolster Mr. Trump's claims that Los Angeles had been taken over by "violent, insurrectionist mobs."Note that this argument is merely "conservatives are playing this story more heavily that liberals are." No shit. Liberals always hide stories about liberals acting badly. This is not exposing a conspiracy theory -- this is just the New York Times whining that conservatives won't go along with their cultish erasure of history to fit the Democrat-Media Party narrative. This is just the New York Times whining girlishly that conservatives won't believe them that the newest outbreak of Democrat-cultivated ultraviolence is No Big Deal, Brah.
Of course. Perfect. "Akshually it's conservatives who are causing the riots by talking about the riots." Thanks for putting us straight, New York Times.
Dr. Linvill said the posts were also "a bit self-fulfilling." "As they direct attention to it," he said, "more protesters will show up."
Brian Stelter is again pushing that Democrat riots are just "cries for help." Also, he insists that it's disinformation to post videos from a couple of hours ago, because.... Well, the fires might have gone out by now. So all videos of the fire are disinformation.
"These protests, which have been abbreviated in the media as 'unrest,' were actually a cry of hope, and a reminder of the human need for community, the need to turn to each other to find something to believe in" https://t.co/HrEaqwnQLx

Whenever big things happen, there are always accounts on X trying to pass off old footage as new footage. Sometimes it's a problem. Other times it simply illustrates how often this crap happens and how bad the leaders of those areas are.
Claiming people should be wary of two hour old footage is a new one. That's hilarious.

There are LIV's who will just take the MSM's word for it, but they're not engaged in any thing political anyways.

People are pissed off and rightfully so! Nobody made the British leave by carrying a protest sign and marching against King George. It was Minute Men with muskets and Minute Men who used those muskets to kick tyranny out of America.
CHP had nothing to do with any of this. The larger rocks could kill them from an overpass. All is does is give the other side a leverage.
It's Boogaloo Bois that target law enforcement at these protests. The left gets blamed by the careless media. Vice and the LA Times are both reporting on it.
Those are instigators and opportunists, not protesters. They ALWAYS show up. 42 were arrested but I don't know how many of the bridge-chumps they got.
They sometimes blend in with the crowd looking for a fight, looking to loot or to unleash aggression at cops.
I would guess they were plants. They WANT a war. So we can have a king.

They sometimes blend in with the crowd looking for a fight, looking to loot or to unleash aggression at cops.
I would guess they were plants. They WANT a war. So we can have a king.

So, where are the reports of other protestors turning these people into police? Of the local LA DAs office pursuing charges? Of the people nearby shouting, "Fed! Fed!"
Also...why does it...ALWAYS happen?

Back when Andy Ngo was exposing the specific people engaged in violence at these riots the other people there ran around calling him "a fed", told people to mask up, and stood in front of him so he couldn't get video of them.

I think this is the timeline:
ICE operations in LA were used as an excuse for a pre-planned riot.
LA authorities let directed action against ICE personnel and locations happen.
ICE fights back.
NG gets called out and backs up ICE.
Rioters back off of ICE because of overwhelming force and keep to a smaller area removed from ICE to playact revolutionary.
This is where we've been for a couple of days. Rioters burning things and looting things far from ICE.

The primary less than lethal option are bean bag rounds, or weird foam nerf looking finned slugs. Rubber slugs do exist, but are old tech, as they're pretty dangerous. Rubber buckshot is more common, and typically shot into the ground in front of protesters to take off some of the velocity and mostly hit people in the legs.
A long time ago, they used wooden dowel in a similar way to the rubber buckshot.

Jackson said that during his time as Director of the White House Medical Unit (WHMU), he was responsible for signing O’Connor’s evaluations and fitness reports. During the interview, he said he thought about getting rid of O’Connor for a “variety of reasons” before accusing Biden’s doctor of inappropriate sexual behavior.

Because they THOUGHT this would make them look good, that people would rally to the cause. They realize that most Americans support deploying the national guard, support getting the riots under control, and support deporting illegals. It's more of an "Uh, never mind."

The left has been cultivating mindless peer dependence for decades to do some of their population control work. It can be easier to prompt a mob to stampede than it is to convince an independent-minded person to do a stupid thing that the left wants him to do.

Yeah they are convinced that rioting is a political tool of great import and value on the left. Its basically a power fantasy of the left: the rising of the street, the grass roots revolution! REMEMBER WOODSTOCK! (but Woodstock wasn't a riot! Quiet, they're rolling).

Projection without evidence of course. They just want it to be.
On the other hand you can show example after example where the Left are mirroring 1984 .
And how is Animal Farm anything but an allegory that uses metaphors/analogies for Stalin and the Soviet Union. I can see them trying to claim 1984 but again they have nothing to base it on.

There is a service in LA that allows you to order a self-driving car to your location. People were using that to order cars to burn. The company (Waymo) sent all their remaining cars into the desert to protect them.

Kash Patel: The FBI is Investigating the Financing Behind the Terrorist Riots
Please seize the Soroses' money.
If Trump can be assessed a $500 million fine for, allegedly, overvaluing his companies in loan negotiations which the banks said they did not rely on and did not harm them, then the Soroses and all the other Billionaire Communists can have their estates seized, consistent with their political vision.The FBI is showing itself to be redeemable. Pam Bondi says they successfully identified one of the attempted murderers of the terrorist riots.
FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed the bureau is actively investigating financial networks behind the escalating anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles. The unrest, which began as protests over immigration raids, has turned violent--raising alarms about foreign interference and taxpayer-funded activism. Key Details: FBI Director Kash Patel said the agency is tracking financial support fueling the anti-ICE riots. Footage of Mexican flags at violent scenes and past statements from Mexico's president have raised questions about foreign involvement. A California-based activist group involved in early protests received nearly $34 million in taxpayer funding in 2023. Diving Deeper: As anti-ICE riots continue to grip Los Angeles, the FBI is zeroing in on who's funding the chaos. FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed Monday night that the bureau is "investigating any and all monetary connections responsible for these riots." ... The intensity of the violence--and the presence of foreign flags among the rioters--has sparked urgent questions in Washington about who's backing the movement. "The FBI is actively tracing the money trail," former FBI Executive Assistant Director Chris Piehota told Just the News, explaining that law enforcement is likely targeting the financial and logistical support structures behind the riots. "They have become professional rabble-rousers...financed around the country to show up at different events and cause problems," he added. Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) said he believes the protests are being manipulated by foreign interests. "They hate this country," Biggs said Monday. "Not a doubt in my mind" that foreign actors, including Mexico's government, are helping to stoke the unrest. He pointed to President Claudia Sheinbaum's past statements about mobilizing against U.S. immigration policy as evidence. One organization helping lead the initial protests was CHIRLA (Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights), which staged one of the earliest rallies last week and is part of a broader progressive activist network. Though CHIRLA claims it did not participate in the violence, it has drawn attention for its heavy reliance on taxpayer funding. According to state filings, CHIRLA received nearly $34 million in 2023, most of it from California state contracts. The Biden administration had also awarded the group nearly $200,000 in federal grants before President Trump terminated that funding earlier this year. Meanwhile, far-left activist groups like the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), with known ties to the Chinese Communist Party, have also taken credit for organizing the protests. PSL is part of a broader web of anti-American groups tied to Neville Roy Singham, a pro-CCP billionaire who resides in Shanghai and has poured millions into leftist causes across the United States, including anti-ICE and anti-Israel demonstrations.
Federal agents have tracked down a suspect who violently attacked law enforcement during the weekend's anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed Monday night. The man, identified by Bondi as "Reyes," was allegedly seen on video breaking cinderblocks and hurling the fragments at federal officers amid the chaos. "That guy has just been identified, and they are doing a search warrant on his house as we speak," Bondi announced during an appearance on Hannity. She described Reyes as "still at large," but made clear he would soon be placed on the FBI's most wanted list. The Los Angeles field office of the FBI had previously announced a $50,000 reward for information leading to the identification, arrest, and conviction of the suspect, who is wanted for assaulting a federal officer and damaging government property. Bondi emphasized that the attack wasn't incidental, recounting how the suspect "was breaking up the cinder blocks and he was throwing them" directly at federal law enforcement officials. "He has been identified by great police work by the FBI," she said. "So you can run. You can't hide. We are coming after you, federally." Bondi's remarks also served as a broader message to other rioters and agitators involved in the weekend unrest. "If you assault a police officer, if you rob a store, if you loot, if you spit on a police officer, we're coming after you," she warned.

Well, that is the big question, isn't it? I would suggest that our own intel agencies, at the very least, allow the cartels to exist, if they are not actively involved in the cartels existing and being protected in the first place.
Kind of like what they now admit was going on between intel services and the Italian mafia from the 1930's through the 1960's (if not longer).
Because I find it hard to believe that, especially with the constant "terrorists could smuggle nuclear weapons across the border!" rhetoric post-911, our government, 22 intel agencies, military, FBI, etc. are unable to identify and shut down the cartels.

Naw. Soros funds a lot of left-wing causes, but the CCP-connected left-wing billionaire responsible for funding many of the violent protests across the country is named Neville Roy Singham.

Yeah, the funders are getting nervous.
Earlier, many of you were lamenting that it was only CA state and local police arresting the rioters, that they would just be let free by leftie DAs.
But that's not the point: The vast majority of those out there are useful idiots, off to see the elephant and other stupid shit.
They were never going to catch any major charges.
But, arresting them removes them from the field and depletes the necessary mass of pawns of concealment for the actual agitators and provocateurs to operate behind.

"Remittances from abroad account for roughly 4.5 percent of Mexico’s total GDP and form the largest single source of foreign income for Mexico," and the amount in 2023 was $6.3 Billion
The majority of remittances go to Mexico State, Guerrero, and Michoacán (which I believe due to the population of MX here in Oregon) so the impact is going to be lopsided. I think (think I am not sure) those are areas that do support the MX government pretty strongly

A lot of it comes from the resentment that BOTH parties ignored the wishes of the people for so long. Lots of us never wanted the legals here, much less the illegals, and we voted for people who pretended they were on our side...only to vote in lock-step with the Dems once they took office.

Even legal immigrants should be heavily taxed for remittances. It's not punishing them. It's balancing the unfairness of them taking money out of USA and giving it to another country, without getting anything in return. What are total remittances to foreign countries every year? 100s of billions? That money should stay in USA.

How does it benefit the middle class of the United States to invite people to move here, who then (due to the increase in supply of labor) lower American wages by competing for the same jobs as Americans, then send the money they make back to people living in a foreign country instead of spending it locally and helping the economy?
Posted by: Harry Paratestes at June 10, 2025 01:26 PM (uCjyK)
So you have no problem with people sticking a gun in your face telling you how to spend your money. And if it isn’t spent locally enough for you, you’ll kill them. (Ah, but you are a coward; you’ll have the police do it FOR you.)

I'm nothing like an expert on AZ politics, but I've heard it asserted for a long time that the cartels own AZ politics and have for a while.
That's my assumption: that that assertion is true and that, if the DOJ is going to attack cartel functions in the US, it's gonna deeply impact the state's politics.
But yes, deporting illegals is going to have material effects on every state with loose election rules. Get rid of 100,000 illegals from AZ, clean up the voter rolls (which can happen from outside the state government), and then there's suddenly far fewer ballots available to manufacture in a given election.

No, they should never have been allowed in in the first place, but if we're going to be stuck with them, then they can pretend to be good Americans and pretend they want to be here and don't hate us, and yes that means not destroying the middle class of this country by taking jobs / lowering wages, and it most certainly means not sending money back to whatever country they fled from.
I don't think I said anything about killing anyone, but taxing them at astronomical rates for sending money abroad is fine by me.
Ideally, though, I'd deport them all. But I'll settle for making it financially difficult for them to continue sucking money out of the American middle classes pocket by sending money abroad.

To be honest, these kinds of violent outbursts don't require "financing" to erupt. People on our side often say "Who's paying these protestors/rioters?" and "Who is financing this violent protest?" -- but seriously, I doubt anyone or any group or any government is actively "financing" them. Maybe paying for a few signs, a coupla megaphones, but other than that -- what is there to spend money on? You don't need to pay these rioters to riot - -they do it spontaneously of their own accord. Hated and violence and criminality and racism are simmering under the surface all the time, and if you give a certain sector of the population half a chance to run wild in the streets and kill cops an loot stores and attack white people and burn cars, etc. -- heck, they'll do it "for free," without financing an without instruction. Of course they'll wave their nation's flags when they're doing it all -- they hate America, they hate the hand that feeds them.
Sure you'll find that and this leftie NGO and socialist party hanging around the fringes egging the rioters on, but to imagine that they are "behind" the riot is absurd. The only thing that's "behind" the riot is Biden's policies.

This is the reason why the cartels have continued to flourish. The attitude is that we REALY NEED TO DO is to to find out who it is that is really behind all of this, so don't focus on what happened here now. We need more informants, we need to become corrupted, just like our enemy.
Enforcing the law is letting the big guy get away, is the mantra here.

Dude, you aren't getting that immediate endorphin hit out of LE doing their job correctly. It doesn't work like that. This crap goes slow, and it is a grind. You know, even issuing garnishments on someone else's documentation with a guaranteed result is a slow stupid process. There is nothing more basic than issuing a garnishment for non-payment of penalties.
If you want endorphins, get involved in the investigations, that is where the real thrill is.

Well, yes and no.
The immigration situation here and in western europe is likely going to be the end of western civilization. Which many in our own countries are cheering on. And maybe they're right, maybe "white people" do need to die out / take a back seat, from a philosophical perspective. I don't know.
But, also, what kind of civilization just allows itself to be destroyed like this without so much as a whimper? And anyone who allows it ... either they come from multi generational wealth and know they'll be fine no matter what happens, or they're nihilists, or... what?
And frankly, my gut says the rest of the world won't be doing too hot without us in 50-60 years when Europe is part of a caliphate, the US is the Balkans, and Asia is dying off from lack of children, but I could be wrong.

My privilege? Oh boy.
In my most recent day job, I witnessed it first hand, day in and day out. American citizens of all races and backgrounds getting absolutely steamrolled by the massive influx of immigrants coming in here.
And yes, many immigrants do show up here with generational wealth and start businesses. I don't know how that is supposed to be a good thing for the American middle class. Does the black guy in Schenectady who saved for years to start a business say "well, I wanted to open a barber shop, but luckily Abdul from Egypt showed up, opened a bodega, and rented the space I wanted and employs some kids in the neighborhood while following none of the US labor laws. Thank god for the small things, I guess I'll just give up on my dreams and go on welfare."
I'm not saying wealth is a finite pie -- but when you add 50 million more mouths in 20 years, the pie aint growing that fast. So every immigrant who comes here is taking nibbles out of someone elses pie.

You're trivialize the debate. It's not about $100 for a birthday. It's about almost entire incomes earned in the USA being immediately sent to foreign -- and often hostile -- countries. Mexico alone gets something like $75B a year. That's siphoning real money from the USA economy, where it otherwise would circulate and boost the USA economy. So yea, it should be taxed to make up for that.

I don't think it's enough.
I'd say, if possible, to make the tax apply only to non-citizens transferring money.
And then raise it to 10%, at least.
If you're a citizen, no tax to certain countries, and taxed at 3.5% going to those countries Trump wants to put it on.
That would work if it's Trump can get a judge's permission.
But a lot of people will just start using Bitcoin, or some other online money transfer app, if they can get away with it.

That's the kind of dumb shit they have been pushing in schools for decades.
Propaganda to condition and "nudge" you to be "moderate." E.g. a soft leftie.
There is no such fucking thing as "extreme right."
There is a scale of governance:
Anarchy to totalitarianism.
Extreme "leave me the f alone" gets no where close to extreme "do as I command."
But, they lie about the "right" as being dictatorial--when it's toward the opposite--because the 100 million the "left" killed needs to be excused as just like the "extreme right."

Because Americans have regulations on every thing we do with our money. We usually call them taxes.
But I guess immigrants should be exempt from that system, while they do something provably harmful to the US economy (sending money overseas)?
I guess the conservative position in your world is that Americans living in America should be taxed excessively, but new Americans whose true loyalties (money talks, as it were) seem to be to foreign countries, should not be taxed on that money they're sucking out of the US economy?

If I were a better Christian, I'd be in church a lot more than I am. But if I were in church more, I'd be sitting among dozens and dozens of quiet and not-so-quiet leftists who hear the sermon on Sunday and then vote for the pro-abortion candidates the following Tuesday.

I get taxed for working. I get taxed for saving. I get taxed for spending. I get taxed for property. I get taxed when I buy my car, I get taxed when I put gas in my car, and I get taxed just to have a car. When/if I live to collect SS - which the government took my money to fund, I'll be taxed on my benefits. And when I die the government will take half my remaining property instead of letting me pass it on to my family.
So, you know what, I really, really don't care about the nominal libertarian argument for why it is wrong to tax people to send money overseas when most of that money is being sent by illegal alien welfare receipts back to their family in the home country
And honestly? I'd like to see it formally banned without proof of citizenship/legal residence.

This probably will be something more like Tether USDT, it is already being used as a retail currency overseas, like Venmo. I would not be surprised if this is proposed as the "official" way to avoid the taxes.
Think on it, Tether owns more treasuries than many countries, and if the demand goes up the US won't have to sell Treasuries to foreign countries, so it is a win-win.

I'd bet money on it. LA didn't help migrants one bit.
Doesn't matter. Stopping a fascist authoritarian takeover is not about what polls well day to day. If the Dems want to poll better, they need to show they’re fighting alongside the people. Anything else is rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic, and worrying about the popularity of icebergs in passenger polls.
We can't assume this riot will be politically damaging to us. The Rodney King riots didn’t cost the Democrats in 1992, and the George Floyd riots didn’t cost them in 2020.
Trump is certainly presiding over a country in relative decline. His poll numbers will drop when the economy turns to shit. No amount of corruption or fascist acts to destroy the government will affect his support.
Approval numbers will be manufactured to support Trump. Trust no data from this administration.

@grok can Bionic Face shields stop a live round to one's head?
Grok @grok 15h Replying to @TheRizing @Elex_Michaelson
No, UVEX Bionic Face Shields cannot stop a live round to the head. They are designed for industrial safety, protecting against impacts, chemical splashes, and debris, not ballistic threats. Made of polycarbonate, they lack the thickness and specialized design needed to resist high-velocity bullets, per product specs and research. Using them in gunfire scenarios could be dangerously misleading, especially in protests where such risks exist. They may guard against non-lethal threats like tear gas or thrown objects, but not firearms.

🚨 BREAKING: Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna announces the House Oversight Committee is launching an INVESTIGATION into Neville Singham over his funding of a communist group tied to the Los Angeles riots.
"HE WILL BE SUBPOENAED" if he refuses, Luna says, and then, referred to the DOJ for "PROSECUTION" if he continues to refuse.

If you are arguing for no taxes on anything, then I'll support that. But that's not the world we live in. The money being sent overseas is taken out of the USA economy. Normally it would circulate around and boost our economy. The $100 example above means nothing, but in total it's 100s of billions a year. That's a big drain. So it should be taxed to make up for that, and to make it less attractive to do. And the gov't does need money.

Allow remittances by legal residents and citizens. But all remitters must apply for a license from the Bureau of Remittances, a unit of Homeland Security. License costs you ten bucks, and you have to prove your legal status. You can only remit to close family members out of country, no random schmoes. Each remittance has to go through the Bureau, which will attach a five-dollar fee per transaction.
A relatively minor hurdle for legal residents sending money to Ma and Pa back in the old country, but a roadblock to illegals remitting.

So I worked on a case where (long story short) an entire construction company in queens was essentially a front for ... someone in China. Presumably the government.
This company broke every labor and employment law imaginable, was being sued by every unit owner who bought a unit, was accused of bribing the building inspector (who seemed to be related to someone involved in the scheme), and all the money, as far as anyone could tell, that the company and employees made was sent back to China, so unreachable by my client who had a very valid case against the company. Oh, and I'd say there's a very good shot the company paid zero in US taxes, although I don't know that for sure.

I regularly wire money from my own account to some other account I own at a different bank, or to an outside (USA) account (such as for a capital call). Do you know what I had to go through to set that up? All kinds of ID checks and verifications, etc. And I'm charged every time I wire my own money to something I'm buying or investing in.
I spent some time reading about tax averse ex-pats and how they and the government went back and forth on ways to avoid paying taxes to the US.
And...at least as of now the US government has a leviathan that will catch almost any American that moves out of the country to try to avoid taxes - this is presumably the infrastructure you ran into.
Now, if it ok to do this to American citizens why isn't it fair to do it to non-citizens? Remember a significant portion of the money being sent overseas is laundered welfare money.

The wiring company takes a fee, yes.
But most of the remittances to Mexico and Central America are done using Venmo / Zelle / Cash App (or back in the day, Western Union). The person just registers in their own country either using a US phone number or their own phone number.
Since you don't need a SSN to open a bank account, no one knows who is sending this money, where it is truly going, and the exact amount of money. And of course, no one taxes it.

Wall Street Journal: The Corrupt Biden Administration Put Musk Under State Surveillance for Two Years After He Bought Twitter
Gavin Newsom and leading Democrats have spent the last few days fulminating about "authoritarianism" by Donald Trump for sending National Guard and Marine units to protect federal law enforcement agents and sites. What will they have to say when they discover that the Departments of Homeland Security and Justice spied on an industrialist supporter of the opposition party?Note the pretext for spying on this political enemy of Biden's is the same pretext the Democrat-Media Party used to launch the RussiaGate Hoax: We're so, so scared that our political enemy is talking to foreigners we're compelled to spy on him and get FISA warrants against him. Musk seems to have reconsidered some of the things he said during his Twitter meltdown:
Advertisement Oh, wait, Trump didn't do that. Joe Biden did that. For two years, according to the Wall Street Journal, Merrick Garland and Alejandro Mayorkas surveilled Elon Musk and his contacts to check out "influence." This seems to have started around the time that Musk bought Twitter and refused to participate in the Biden administration's Big Tech-Big Government Censorship Complex:Several U.S. government agencies in 2022 and 2023 tracked foreign nationals coming and going to Elon Musk's properties, according to people familiar with the matter. The investigation included the Department of Homeland Security and the Justice Department. It focused on people visiting the tech billionaire, from countries in Eastern Europe and elsewhere, who might have been trying to influence him. Until last week, Musk was one of President Trump's closest advisers. ... The probe, predating the current Trump administration, highlights concerns about the number of foreign nationals in Musk's orbit. Musk runs five companies, including SpaceX, with sensitive government contracts, and has had unprecedented access to top government officials.
Trump is also conciliatory:
The feud between Elon Musk and President Trump appears to be cooling--at least publicly--as Musk on Friday deleted a provocative tweet accusing Trump of being tied to the long-sealed Jeffrey Epstein files. The now-removed post had read: "Time to drop the really big bomb... @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!" The accusation came amid Musk's multi-day online assault on Trump's proposed spending bill, which he labeled as bloated and misguided. But the tweet quickly triggered a wave of rebuttals, including from David Schoen, Epstein's former criminal defense lawyer. "I can say authoritatively, unequivocally, and definitively that he [Epstein] had no information to hurt President Trump," Schoen wrote on X. "I specifically asked him!" The White House dismissed Musk's outburst as political sour grapes. "This is an unfortunate episode from Elon, who is unhappy with the One Big Beautiful Bill because it does not include the policies he wanted," said White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Thursday. "The president is focused on passing this historic piece of legislation and making our country great again."

I suspect that it's an issue of Trump being aware that there was no benefit to being mean to Musk. He's not an opponent, sometimes he's an ally. Let him bluster a bit. Keep him on-side.
Other politicians? Reporters? Sometimes other national leaders? There can be a benefit to putting them off balance.

Trump knew the right play was sitting back. He will not be cowed or subordinated by anyone but Elon showed he was willing to go as dirty as needed, so going in the mud where Trump usually lives wasn't necessarily the best play.

Musk's expectations were unrealistic but he shared them with a not insignificant number of people in these very comments.
Most people, even people who are interested in politics, understand how things get done. They want immediate and total gratification. After all, it seems like that always happens for the Dems. Never mind that they're being gaslit by the media hyping Dem shit while downplaying Trump shit.
Musk's issue, one he shares with virtually every rich/famous/powerful person on Earth is that he doesn't listen when someone tells him that he's wrong even if it's about something outside of his expertise.

I don't know if it's how they should choose people to spy on, but the fact of the matter is, we live in a surveillance state, it is what it is, and most of the country seems fine with it.
So with that framework, I'd be surprised if a foreign billionaire with a sketchy backstory who clearly has no loyalty to Americans or American workers (lets not forget this tweet: "The reason I’m in America along with so many critical people who built SpaceX, Tesla and hundreds of other companies that made America strong is because of H1B. Take a big step back and FUCK YOURSELF in the face. I will go to war on this issue the likes of which you cannot possibly comprehend.") was not under surveillance by at least one of our 22 intelligence agencies.

I used to think it was mean to call Elon autistic when he was probably only quirky. I have come to realize he most likely is, and autistic meltdowns when they can’t contain emotions look exactly like this. There is no filter in the moment, there is no rational thought in the moment. And there is a real struggle to understand why the person at the other end of the wrath isn’t over it when the autistic person is. It’s a very difficult dynamic. In kids, it’s furious, primal screaming and throwing of furniture.

Look up the saga of Elon Musk and Adrian Dittmann. Whether the "conspiracy theory" is true or not (and I suspect it is), it's just ... bizarre. Like everything around Elon. He's in his 50's, has a dozen plus of kids, multiple companies to run, and yet seems to spend most of his time fucking around online trying to impress teenagers. It's weird.

Not impressed teenagers. Honestly, it all does make sense. It’s probably really hard for him to engage in a normal relationship and online gives him a bit of the safety to communicate. It’s kind of normal with high functioning autistic people. Being normal socially is not what comes easy to them. They have to fake it. We have had a ton of behavior therapy for my daughter, and thank goodness we did. But even now, she will just say things and have no idea it would be received as hurtful. They also don’t do well with the word no, and if they are spiraling, it’s worse.

Unless you mean an increase?
It’s meaningless anyway. Nobody makes $7.25 an hour. Shit McDonald’s in my area pays almost $20/hr and they still have a hard time keeping people.
Most states have their own minimum wage as well.
The only thing it can affect is union contracts which use the mw to calculate wages for their members. Other than that it’s really a non issue.

I agree he's probably autistic, which may explain some of his behavior, but it does not excuse it.
He is the richest man in the world, tweeting publicly about the elected President of the US (who he supported), claiming that he knows that the President engaged in pedophilia and then actively worked to cover that up.
Then he retracted the statement.
That is, to say the least, not acceptable behavior in polite society.

Hey you want to actually increase the minimum wage dramatically with no new legislation? In fact, Congress can just fuck off to wherever they scurry off to when Congress is in recess...
Deport the tens of millions of people working and living here illegally driving down wages for American citizens.
That would solve MANY of our problems. Overnight. Housing prices would drop, medical prices would stabilize, school districts would be able to allocate money to books instead of hiring spanish translators, etc. etc.

Trump knows he needs the tax cuts first, foremost, and desperately, so he is willing to settle (for now) on allowing the pork to roll along with it.
I believe Trump will come back to spending reductions, and Musk was unwilling to trust that will happen. Fair enough, he has a better than even chance of being correct.
Anyway, having started the fight, Musk also needs to finish it. His businesses are too reliant on federal cooperation for him to do any other thing.

You will not see most of the spending numbers budge but Trump will continue at least cutting regulations and the cost of doing business, which is another solid way to generate wealth. And it's a way the bastard Republicans can live with. Probably because Democrats can always put them back in a future year, but no one will ever be able to spend the unspent money from the current one.

Yes, but Elon is supposedly Trump's ally, and is now likely going to try to "mend bridges" with Trump.
Again, Trump has a way about him where he can get away with being outrageous. He's unique in that sense. It feels very tongue in cheek coming from him. And even then, he doesn't really always get away with it.
This outburst from elon? I don't think he was being Trumpian. If Elon had made fun of Trump's hair or something, sure.
But how do you come back from calling Trump a pedophile who is covering up the evidence of that? There will be books written on Epstein for the next 50 years, half of which will cite Elon's tweet as proof that Trump was an Epstein client.

The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition
If that were the only calculation, then anyone who makes more in income than he receives from the federal government could claim the same thing. That is the undeniable reality of a progressive tax system. But is even dumber than that; the Trump administration is threatening to withhold funds from California because they aren't following federal law (Title IX) as currently interpreted. That is a tried and true method for forcing the states to do the federal government's bidding. Remember 55 mph speed limits? And exactly how would California withhold federal tax payments? Order every business to stop withholding federal taxes from their employees' paychecks, and instead send the funds to the state? That's...nuts! Tit-For-Tat simply doesn't work. Bessent condemns Newsom's 'dangerous' threat to withhold $80B in federal taxes amid trans athlete controversyCalifornians pay the bills for the federal government.
— Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) June 6, 2025
We pay over $80 BILLION more in taxes than we get back.
Maybe its time to cut that off, @realDonaldTrump. pic.twitter.com/lwFHFSgSyJ
If the California governor were to follow through with his threat, Bessent said in a Sunday post on X that it would constitute tax evasion. Newsom's plan would defraud American taxpayers while leaving California residents on the hook for any unpaid federal taxes, the treasury secretary wrote.
It is of course just bluster, and Treasury Secretary Bessent does an admirable job of making Newsom look like the idiot that he is. But the lack of seriousness is becoming a recurrent theme in California and many other blue states. The hilariously confused charge that there are no riots, but they were made worse by President Trump's mobilization of the National Guard, is an excellent example of the clownish fools we have in many positions of power. A United States senator advocating for more riots to combat ICE's legal activity to protect America from criminal aliens? Or the house minority leader threatening to expose federal agents? Obviously these people have become complacent over the last generation; they have a compliant media that are unwilling to examine critically even the most outrageous and idiotic pontifications. They have carte blanche to say the most ridiculous things, and advocate for blatantly illegal policies, because the 4th Estate are 100% in the bag for them. Yet in the grand scheme, this is a good thing. The monopoly that the mainstream media had is no longer extant, and the American people have access to both the stupidity emanating from the political class AND they can see the underlying facts. That is a big reason why Donald Trump is president, and it is an encouraging sign that the titanic shift that so many are predicting may actually occur.Governor @GavinNewsom is threatening to commit criminal tax evasion.

Yeesh, this is the second week in a row where I gotta kinda sorta disagree with the Drinker.
I strongly suspect that most (all?) movie goers aren't going to see that cuz they'll be caught up in the fun action.
There was only one instance that I can think about where Eve didn't seem comfortable and that was in the first big set piece. I assumed though that that was because it was her first job and she hadn't quite figured things out yet.
But, yeah, coming right on the heels of Mission Impossible was a poor choice for release date.

I did not think that Trump would try an Armed Forces coup against the three most popular, most articulate Governors of Democratic States: Newsom in California, Pritzker in Illinois, or Whitmer in Michigan.
But here we are. Trump has launched the military against the most articulate Governor of Americas biggest, richest State,
He chose the wrong Governor, the wrong State, on an ultra Stupid occasion: Just in time for tanks for rolling down Pennsylvania Avenue.; Bradleys coming soon, to a neighborhood near you.
Maybe, if LA handles the current situation well. If it goes bad, we'll never hear end of it from trumpsters. LA has handled it well, but I was hoping things would cool off a bit today after weekend.
Trump runs on impulse triggered by simmering rage. Newsom is intelligent, and does a good job of pushing Trump's buttons, showing him to be the insane cretin for all the world to see.
he is by far the best governor to take on donald and the federal government. He is smart, and quick, and has a presence. He's like the male counterpart to AOC or Crockett. What a trio that group would be!!

Is one of those lies that’s also true. It probably takes the total amount of income taxes paid and subtracts the amount of direct payments to the state. And yeah there’s $80B difference.
What it doesn’t count is stuff like the military bases which California has a ton of. It’s all funded by federal dollars. It’s billions of dollars going into the state and generating economic activity. But it’s not a direct payment to California so it doesn’t count in their math. Nor does any money spent by the feds to operate federal buildings or airports or national parks, etc.

Trump runs on impulse triggered by simmering rage. Newsom is intelligent, and does a good job of pushing Trump's buttons, showing him to be the insane cretin for all the world to see.
he is by far the best governor to take on donald and the federal government. He is smart, and quick, and has a presence. He's like the male counterpart to AOC or Crockett. What a trio that group would be!!

It sorta reminds me of back in the old days, baseball teams that were always in the second division would show up at spring training, and their announcers would say: We got some good looking young hurlers in camp this year.
There's Floyd Fitzlebottom, a lefty picked up from Walla Walla, then there's Icabod Seagull, who was pitching in the Mexican League last year, and ol' Rusty Trombone, not as young as the others, but a trick pitcher who can really fool 'em.
By August they'd be 30 games out of first.

Pritzker is a fat disgusting pervert who cannibals wouldn't even nibble on for fear of catching leprosy. But he has piles of money and connection and has been trying to elbow himself into the 2028 conversation. So I'm not surprised the NPCs duckspeak his poisoned lard ass as a potential contender.

Illegals Help Film Republican Presidential Campaign Commercial
LOS ANGELES, CA — The Republican Party expressed gratitude to a local group of illegal immigrants who helped film some commercials for the next presidential campaign.
The rowdy group was filmed torching cop cars, looting stores, and waving Mexican flags, providing some "killer" footage for the 2028 race.
"Man, this is great stuff," said one Republican consultant as he reviewed a scene of several illegal immigrants defecating on an American flag while throwing bricks at people's faces. "We couldn't have asked for better footage here. Just 10 seconds will give us a 10-point boost in the polls. Thanks, illegals!"

U.S. Senator John Fetterman
@SenFettermanPA
I unapologetically stand for free speech, peaceful demonstrations, and immigration—but this is not that.
This is anarchy and true chaos.
My party loses the moral high ground when we refuse to condemn setting cars on fire, destroying buildings, and assaulting law enforcement.

Anyone here who lives down by the Southern border, and particularly in TX, understands the dynamic of those who really do just want to work and support their families, and how much those who are legal via whatever means detest the fence hoppers. Most of those here legally are from Mexico but there is a very solid fraction from South and Central America on work permits.
... And these are not *any* of the people Biden let in, or those who came in during one of Obama's aborted pushes (for those forgetting, Obama backed out of the suicide pact with the EU long enough to ensure the EU is burning down first... the Biden invasion was originally planned for 2015)
The ones jammed into the country by the NGOs/commies are overwhelmingly NOT solid potential citizens. This is the main reason the legal immigrants are strongly opposed, they know what's coming.

It's not puzzling. The rather confected "Hispanic" category does in fact group lots of people who are more normal (by historical standards) in terms of values and lifestyles than your freak luxury believe suburban whites. There's no country or culture outside Canada and Europe from which any immigrant will be leaving a less "conservative" place (talking basic values). Mexico sadly is more complicated, partly due to the cross-border non-assimilation phenomenon that really doesn't apply to others. But most of the pathologies in that picture developed on the US side.
Of course when you look at economic "values" there's a pronounced bias towards statist or welfare-centric mentality for many immigrants, compared to the US genpop, but sadly that gap has seemed to close a bit.

Illegals Help Film Republican Presidential Campaign Commercial
LOS ANGELES, CA — The Republican Party expressed gratitude to a local group of illegal immigrants who helped film some commercials for the next presidential campaign.
The rowdy group was filmed torching cop cars, looting stores, and waving Mexican flags, providing some "killer" footage for the 2028 race.
"Man, this is great stuff," said one Republican consultant as he reviewed a scene of several illegal immigrants defecating on an American flag while throwing bricks at people's faces. "We couldn't have asked for better footage here. Just 10 seconds will give us a 10-point boost in the polls. Thanks, illegals!"

(from a recent article by experts) How about cockroaches?
what frightens me about cockroach milk is the mention earlier about almond milk being almond particles in suspension. does this imply that cockroach milk is little bits of cockroach stirred into a bit of elmer's glue?

Much more recent. "Boofing" used to mean puking. It now has a different meaning, maybe in the last 4-5 years. Boofing is popular because it's an instant high that maximizes the potency of the drug.

This wouldn't apply to the viewer of the period but, looking at it today, there are echoes of Elizabethan and earlier times with itinerant companies of actors trying to survive on talent and content alone with minimal backdrops and few possessions. It's easy to imagine Puck giving the closing lines of A Midsummer Night's Dream or Hamlet examining Yorick's skull.

Yeah. Walloons = Frog-speaking Belgies. Flemings = Flemish-speaking Belgies (or "Phlegms").
Both mostly Catholics. The Catholic part of the Netherlands, now Belgium, was historically known as the "Spanish Netherlands". What we now call the Netherlands was the Protestant part. Flemish is quite similar to Dutch.
"Sometimes the English and the Dutch ally against the French, and fight in the Spanish Netherlands. Sometimes the English and the French ally against the Dutch, and fight in the Spanish Netherlands. Sometimes the Dutch and French ally against the English, and fight in the Spanish Netherlands." -- Neal Stephenson
Nothing has changed. The Eurosavages alway prefer to fight in Belgium, if they can manage it. Why fuck up their own countries, and let's get real: what are the Belgians going to do about it?
"France now has short-range nuclear missiles. Near as I can figure, they're all set to nuke the hell out of Belgium. With the possible exception of inventing Brussels sprouts, I can't think of anything they've done to deserve this."

Cosplay contests weren't enough?
The ad showed two women one with some...tentacle looking thing on her head...which I remember from Return of the Jedi, and then the other wearing a stormtrooper helmet and in both cases wearing about as much as a woman might wear at the beach, and they were doing some dance routine.
Honestly neither sexy nor entertaining as say the original SW movies were. It worked as well togoether as saw chocolate and...french fries.

A number of NGOs have been implicated in this. Foremost is Coalition for Humane Immigration Rights or CHIRLA, and the photos of signs show they were printed by PSLWEB / Party for Socialism and Liberation.
CHIRLA has the EIN of 954421521. Most of its private funding appears to be from DAFs, which are the hardest to trace. However 34 million of its reported 45 million in revenue are from government grants.
The riots are paid for by USAID types.

That's why Trump should just deploy the Guard to protect federal facilities in LA, and only assist with protecting the rest of the city if he gets a formal request from the State. "Newsom and Bass say they have LA under control. It doesn't look like that to me, but maybe burning the city down is what the voters want. I believe in separation of powers, so I'll protect the Federal stuff, and they can protect their stuff. If they can't do it and need help, all they have to do is ask."

That's exactly what Trump is doing.
The NG is there to protect ICE and federal buildings. They are providing perimeters.
The three-square blocks were rioters are being allowed space to destroy are not being approached by the NG. So, the rioters are being allowed space to light electric cars on fire to hurt the environment, and the left is calling this a victory.

We picked up a portable generator for the house. 9000 watts running, forget what peak was. Had the electrician run a 30a outlet into the panel with a generator interlock plate. Gives you the flexibility to power what you want by flipping breakers, without the expense of a whole house generator. This covers my well, water treatment, furnace, fridges, freezer with enough to spare.

That's precisely right. They are really pushing mass, nationwide protests Saturday...I guess to counter Trump's parade in DC? They will certainly have a lot of protests across the nation, but most (I think?) will be small and embarrassing. Larger cities will probably have much better turnout, but they've been having stupid, anti-Trump protests regularly already with 50501 and a host of other Leftwing losers, so no one will care.

It's a tremendous amount of fun. Just a great action movie that just builds and builds, getting more crazy as it goes along. I could give some examples but that would just spoil the fun. Go in blind if you can.
The story's more or less a John Wick story with a little girl training and growing up to be an assassin to get revenge on the man who killed her father.
I suppose you could see a bit of girl boss if you wished but early on there's a training scene where a male trainee just keeps whipping her butt and she complains that she can't win cuz he's bigger and stronger, so-
Eve's trainer tells her that everyone is bigger than her so she needs to cheat, exploit her opponents weaknesses, don't try to fight fair, fight with anything and everything she can, improvise
"Ballerina" takes that bit of advice to the max and that's what makes the movie so fun.
Eve often finds herself in a bad spot but then uses whatever she can to get out of it. One great thing about the movie is that once Eve finds a weapon to even the odds, she keeps using it in wilder ways until she no longer can.
Excellent summer action flick with a John Wick bonus.
Check it out.

The argument is that Trump implementing the immigration policies he ran on he becomes a "King" because leftwing jurisdictions disagree with him.
There is no serious argument that the president has these powers from existing laws - just that using them is wrong and authoritarian. Which, you'll not, still has NOTHING particularly to do with monarchy.

I think it's more about Trump reigning in executive agencies, making them accountable to him instead of "independent".
People have swam in the idea that executive agencies are rightfully independent of the president (ie, the people) for decades.
Of course, it's been a crock of shit. They're deeply dependent on Democrat presidents and Republican presidents when the Republican president says the right thing. But the fiction remains.

They didn't show up for LA either. Those riots are basically the same bunch of vomitous scumbags in different locations, all carefully stage-managed and filmed to make it look like a much bigger crowd. A few of the vids give it away. Like that scene of the fuckwads throwing shit in front of a burning car ... wide angle video shows almost nobody there, and a small fire planted next to the car. There were like 5 cameramen positioned right in front of the fire, to give the illusion the whole place was burning.

But riots never play well with the public. It's not their marketing coup.
If CNN wanted to downplay it, they'd just stop covering it, but they think it's helping them for some reason.

They thought the 1960s riots helped them too. They think the riots in 2020 helped. It's sorta the same thing that they see absolutely everything through a Marxist lens. Gym bros pump iron to take their minds off all the impotent confusion they feel at an uncontrollable world, don't ya know?

I find it impossible to imagine anyone thinking the 60s riots helped them.
Nixon won 49 states in 1972, and the riots had been over for a couple of years by that point.
But, people are stupid and don't remember things.

Oddly, the 60s riots were all about Klansmen, Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists from the South. No one noticed that 152 of the 156 cities hosting the riots were in the Northeast and Midwest. Two were in CA. The last two were in Atlanta and Birmingham. Yeah, the narrative is a bitch.

The Morning Report — 6/ 10 /25
Do We Really Want NATO Countries to Spend More on Weapons?
And 113 Dems vote No on resolution to condemn the anti-semitic terror attack on Jews in Boulder CO. Lots of resonating, yo.
Current projections indicate significant growth in the Muslim populations of these three critical NATO members by 2050. The Pew Research Center, in its “Europe’s Growing Muslim Population“ report, projects that under a “medium migration” scenario, the Muslim population in France could reach approximately 17-18% of the total, the UK could reach around 16.7%, and Germany approximately 10.8%. Under a “high migration” scenario, Germany’s Muslim population could reach about 20%, France’s 18%, and the UK’s close to 20%. These are substantial shifts from their current proportions.
God bless and protect President Trump, for having both the courage and wisdom in calling up the National Guard as well as the Marines to protect life and property in Los Angeles. The Left is now escalating the conflict by openly calling up its cadres in NYC, San Francisco, Nashville, Florida and elsewhere. There is no way in hell that this is some sort of organic protest movement. Someone or some group somewhere is organizing, directing and funding what amounts to a violent insurrection by using the legitimate actions of ICE and law enforcement in the apprehension and deportation of illegal aliens, be they dangerous criminals as an alarmingly large number are or merely foreign nationals on our soil without permission, as cover to destabilize if not actually overthrow the government. If not in one fell swoop then by creating a sense of fear and panic among the citizenry that their government cannot protect them and that it and the MAGA movement, and anything other than the Democrat Party is totalitarian/fascistic etc. etc. etc. as has been broadcast 24/7/365 ever since Trump descended the Trump Tower escalator and was sworn in. And make no mistake, the Democrat Party itself is up to its degenerate evil rotten neck in this all the way.
“I mean, my first message is to keep it peaceful,” Murphy declared. “I mean, obviously, this is a moment where we have to be on the streets all over the country to protest what’s happening to our immigrant community, but more broadly, to protest what’s happening to our democracy. This is the most corrupt administration in the history of the country, and we are going to rise to this moment by being out there on the streets.”Chris Murphy. Who the fuck does this subhuman degenerate scumbag traitorous tyrant think he's fooling. Certainly not the average, law-abiding normal American citizen. Whom he and his ilk only seek out like Dracula seeks out the jugular vein of an unsuspecting victim.
Now some cruelty, and truth, from the man who knows how to dish it up, Victor Davis Hanson:
What triggered the American Civil War were state officials who refused to honor federal law and instead boasted of their open defiance of Washington. That precedent apparently is the incendiary model for the weird, but dangerous recent behavior of an increasingly unhinged California Governor Gavin Newsom. He is currently supporting the often-violent protestors in Los Angeles and their resistance to federal officials’ enforcement of immigration laws. Newsom claimed that Trump’s use of ICE to detain those here illegally in the U.S. was “reckless”, “chaotic” and “eroding trust”. Does he think that his own rhetoric is creating calm and building trust by opposing the lawful enforcement of federal statutes? Or is he following the baleful model of arch-Confederate rebel Jefferson Davis? . . . . . . Does the governor grasp that his reckless states’ rights rhetoric empowers violent protestors who torch cars, pelt passersbys, and assault officers? Take, for example, fellow California Democrat, Congresswoman Norma Torres. She just messaged federal immigration officers with the obscene threat,“Get the f— out of LA.” Does Torres believe that Los Angeles should become a modern-day South Carolina of 1861, boasting that it will defy the federal government? Is Torres echoing Democrat and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries? He just boasted that he would dox endangered ICE agents, publishing their personal information and revealing their identities (“Every single one of them, no matter what it takes, no matter how long it takes, will of course be identified.”To paraphrase her mentor Comrade Stalin, How many divisions does Torres have?. How exactly does Rep. Torres think she is going to get federal officers “the f— out of LA”?
I have a great deal of admiration and respect for Christopher Rufo, but his essay entitled Trump Should Crush the L.A. Riots—with a Subtle Hand, How the president can restore order and win the war for visual symbolism, makes no sense. I invite him to define the word "subtle" in the context of this situation. Love you, brother, but we're not engaged in a debate on stage at Oxford. The Leftists doing this to us do not want a debate. They want us dead or subjugated. The only response to tyranny is to destroy it utterly. Dear friend and friend of the blog, the wonderful, witty and wise Michael Walsh has got the right idea:
The consequences of America's failure to act on its victory in the Cold War, so carelessly thrown away by the Bush, Clinton, Bush, and Obama administrations, are now playing out, first in the judiciary and now in the streets. What started as legal challenges in federal courts across the land has turned into open rebellion, to which has now been added foreign interference in America's internal affairs. It's a powderkeg, but this time the Left will either step down or be put down. . . . . . the self-induced "plight" of the illegal aliens has not been helped by their penchant for waving the Mexican flag and sporting the "Palestinian" tablecloth called a keffiyeh around their neck as they set cars afire. Call it the Thunbergian Unified Field Theory of Revolution: a synthesis of "climate change," Gaza, Jew hatred, "immigration," and playing hooky from school. Nor has the Mexican president Claudia Shinebaum helped matters by supporting the "rights" of her illegals in the U.S. and encouraging their continuing theft of American resources via remittances sent back home. Tax those at 100% percent and watch the illegal-invasion problem largely vanish overnight. Meanwhile, the public is solidly behind Trump. Americans love nothing than a righteous, thumping beat-down of the bad guys. For the violent insurrectionist Left, it's been a long time coming. The last time Democrats resisted an election and nullified federal law began in 1861 at Fort Sumter, ended four years later at Appomattox. Let's see how they choose to play it this time.Excellent essay, but when Walsh asserts ". . . the Left will either step down or be put down." my reaction is they will never ever step down, so that begs the question, how will they be put down? Given their delusions of being Good and of us and all who oppose them as Evil, where "by any means necessary" is their call to arms to save democracy, the planet, the future, Pete Buttigieg's right to lactate cockroach milk, or whatever. That gives them the insane illusory right to claim and foist their mythological status as having absolute moral authority to do anything to anyone at any time. And so, if they are to be put down, which regrettably is clearly the case, I ask by whom because to do so requires their complete political/societal/cultural if not literal physical annihilation, once and for all. Pace Chris Rufo, there is no subtle way to eradicate cancer. You either cut it out or it ultimately kills you. For sure, be it foreign actors in Mexico or Beijing, the likes of George Soros et al, or Domestic anti-American groups (Antifa, BLM, SJP, CAIR, ELF, trade unions and the Democrat Party itself) the DOJ and FBI need to RICO the living shit out of them, prosecute their leadership, seize their assets and dismantle them like that other Democrat group the KKK was dismantled. If not, La Raza will reconquista us into La GAZA if we don't stop this now, and mercilessly. If Homan and Trump don't want to arrest Newsom and Bass, can they at least grab this dame in Minnesota and get her a window seat on the first flight out on Aerolineas Pinochet?
A Democrat lawmaker in the Minnesota state House of Representatives admitted during a floor debate on Monday that she is an illegal immigrant. State Representative Kaohly Vang Her (D), during a debate on expanding illegal immigrant eligibility for MinnesotaCare, revealed that her father had committed immigration fraud, listing his grandmother as his mother, as the latter was deceased.And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know. Have a great day.

For crying out loud, there are all kinds of people who have done the leg work and investigation and have documented for ages the money behind these riots.
What is worse, Newscum is sort of correct when he calls the riots "Trump's Chaos" because we know that the CIA and US Taxdollars are underwritring and guiding these riots.
Why can't Trump tell his damned CIA director to cut this shit and quit waging war against We The People?

that's a means to undermine the protesters and it smells like right wing talking points. They can carry any flag they please.
fostering Mexican pride has always been important to these communities in order to counter oppressive white racism. Carrying a Mexican flag is nothing more than a show of this pride, not unlike how the Pride flag is used to show pride in the LGBTQ+ community. Unfortunately, MAGA would interpret this as a show of support for some sort of invasion.
There is a history of fear Mexico wanted their territory back. More projection from xenophobic zombies.
They don't care. They are fascist bootlickers full of anger and fear and they get great pleasure from beating unarmed people.
The California Guard probably cares. They probably signed up for skills training, a bit of extra money, and the pride of serving. I guarantee they did not sign up to turn their weapons on fellow Californians.

Remember those 'protestors' throwing rocks and concrete off a bridge and the cop who is near death?
The moment the first rock was dropped, any exit from that bridge should have been blocked off. Then a fly-by to drop a couple of block busters to blow the bridge and its occupants to hell.
I guarantee you the first - and only - shots and use of deadly force will come from the rioters. The NG and Marines won't be told to stand down, but they will be ordered not to use real ammunition under any provocation.

"Our immigrant community"? What? Are foreigners now your pets?
What a sick, arrogant, racist asshole. There is no such thing as an "undocumented immigrant". An immigrant comes here legally and there is a lot of paperwork involved.
Even illegal aliens are heavily documented, yet they are not "immigrants" they are invaders and trespassers, and in far too many cases, enemy combatants.

It is funny to see the cogs grinding as they try to generate courses of action from their diametrically opposed interest groups. "We need to fly American flags to get the American people behind us", "we need to fly foreign flags in solidarity", etc.
Normally, there would be a quick NPC patch sent out to unify the message, but that takes some time, and it can be hard to coordinate the actions of the Frankenstein's monster which is the rioters Leftists have created. Sargon of Akkad just talked about Reddit posts showing tons of brand new, still creased American flags popping up all over the LA protesters, though, so someone is investing in turning the optics around.

Hiring freeze at DOJ til Jul 15 (that's when new folks can come onboard b/c they weren't one of the excluded from Trump's original EO). They even now have a hiring post out, so I expect them onboard on that date.
Many departments are 50%-70% or more down in active lawyers, which is good b/c the zealots are gone. But there's only so many folks now, and prioritizing the appeals for ALL of the court cases and getting cases dropped from the Biden admin has been priority.

Wow! That BBC interview of Steve Bannon is one blockbuster allegation after another against Musk. Holy mackerel!
Is Musk an illegal alien? Is he a Chinese agent? Did Doge do nothing? Was Musk only stealing information at the White House? Who knows? Bannon is very suspicious.

That end state is inevitable. If one squints to find the silver lining in the LA Riots, more and more Producers will take this as yet another clue that they ought to resume their operations anywhere other than CA, IL and NY.
This takes time and motivation. The insurrection and enemy take-over of California can only go in one direction: down; they will make ZA look like government paradise in comparison.
When California has ejected enough Producers, then it will, as nature would seem to dictate, fail, and fail spectacularly. I just hope that enough tax paying Americans maintain even a smidgen of self-preservation and cut California off.
But Mimetic Theory and the effectiveness of propaganda says otherwise.

On June 9, furious residents in Ballymena, Northern Ireland rioted & set fire to the homes belonging to two migrant teens accused of the serious s—xual assault of a local girl. The reaction stands in stark contrast to silence in England over similar crimes.

What's there to reevaluate? We always knew who he was...an ally whose interests aligned with us at the right moment in history...never a friend or even a good guy. Women have known that forever. If a guy needs to be a whore, he's got issues. He can say the whoring was "to repopulate the world", but you can do that with one wife. I know families with 10+ kids - they tend to be Catholic.

There is speculation that, at least in California, the civilian LE, the local and state governments as well as a fair number of CA National Guard (and other military) are, in fact, aligned with the Mexican cartels.

They absolutely know some. Some of the links were posted here yesterday, copied from X posts by Data republican. But that's just some.
For 4 years under the Biden administration billions were paid by the federal government to enable the invasion. Groups like Catholic Charities and many others got paid millions and in some cases 100s of millions to bring these people in. State governments in places like CA gave them rent, food, jobs, drivers license and healthcare.
That's just some. Hell, Biden literally chartered planes to fly illegals into the US from places like Venezuela, Haiti and Cuba. Over 100,000 military age men from China came into the country. Jihadis were allowed into the country. All of this was done on purpose by the feds and certain bureaucrats, state governments and people like Soros and even the UN. It's a enormous conspiracy and what's happening in CA is just one result.
They brought them here for a reason. They aren't going to let them go without a fight.

An information request from ICE involving workplace information in an investigation of exploited children.
Statement from the governor's office reads in part:
Keeping kids safe is a top priority, child exploitation is a deeply concerning issue, and has no place in our state.

I don't believe that. Wasn't true in the 60s when groups like the Weathermen and the Black Panthers were leading race riots and bombing buildings. They looked formidable then, until they weren't.
The truth is many have not been heading the warnings that have been obvious for years. People laughed at groups like the WEF who would meet every year to talk about the coming one world socialist paradise they would control. People went on with their lives while those scumbags implemented their policies to get where we are today. Not just here, look at the EU. Same shit is happening. Same in Canada. It's not a coincidence, it was a plan. Why did the UN have migrant camps along the path from Latin America to the US? Because it was part of the plan.
We are just beginning to fight back and understand this wasn't some vast rightwing conspiracy theory. It is in fact a conspiracy. I don't for a second think Gavin Newsom and AOC are our inevitable future.

Prodding the California LE to take the lead on this takes the heat off the federal authorities and the administration for it. I doubt it matters who actually does the arrests, the CA legal system will spring them anyway.
I always suspected that one of the goals of these riots was to goad the federal authorities into a "no-win" set of circumstances so it could be used against Trump's administration and lead to more lawfare.
Finding and prosecuting the financiers behind all this shit is probably more important than arresting rioters who'll be out on bail in hours.

Illegal immigration deportation is just getting more popular, and in response to riots, Newsom has filed a mealy-mouthed lawsuit against Trump that may find a sympathetic district court judge but will die very quickly thereafter. The reading of Article 10 is so shoddy and incomplete that even the 9th will laugh him out of court.

And the narrative here is that Los Angeles is in complete chaos as a result of Donald Trump attempting to enforce federal law, so to stop the violence, Donald Trump must be compelled to cease enforcing federal law. This, of course, would be a devastating neutering of Trump while strengthening the Democrats. They want to make Trump look weak and convince America to submit to their intimidation. But this plot only works if we accept the illusion they are presenting.

CNN did a segment yesterday showing that support for Trump's immigration policies has gone up 22 points since 2017 and he now has majority approval. And that was a CNN poll.

I'd like to see a formal 20 year pause - no immigration for that time period AT ALL - so we can deal with the 40M+ immigrants (legal and illegal) we've taken in over the last couple of decades.

Not surprised -- have read that illegals have taken over black neighborhoods in LA. When you accept a narrative that this is a 'racist white person' problem, it ignores many other Americans who've been screwed over by open borders. Trump spoke to them in 2025, and that's why he won.

In the first 4 months of Trump's presidency, the foreign born population has gone down by 750,000 and the foreign born involvement in the workforce has gone down by 1,000,000.
And that's with ICE being its current size, without the expansion in the OBBB, and most of the 4 months just spinning up operations. Asylum claims are done, the 500,000 granted by Biden already on their way out, and inward immigration coming to an effective end. Visas are expiring and more people who would have gone anyway are going.
And, in the middle of this, is Maria, the honest illegal immigrant who thinks working as a maid in the US is better than her life in Guatemala who sees riots and raids and decides...she should just go back now.

The answer is: "With counterinsurgency". Call it a "conspiracy theory" all you want, but that seems to be what's been going on since Trump rode the famous escalator. His current term has the feel of a military operation. Speaker Johnson referred to himself as a "wartime Speaker" early on, and nobody bothered to ask him what the hell that was supposed to mean. It means there's a secret war going on. Duh.

Declassified analysis released shows the Biden Administration used the Capitol riot of January 6, 2021 to inflate the data about the "domestic terrorism" threat facing the United States.
The declassified “Special Analysis” report by U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies from February 2022 revealed that “61 percent” of all alleged domestic terrorism-related cases being investigated by the FBI at the time were related to the Capitol riot, and that “78 percent” of arrests allegedly tied to domestic terrorism in 2021 in fact stemmed from the singular riot in early January 2021.

Oh I agree BUT...I want to hear what led someone to vote for Trump and a leftwing lunatic in the Senate election that same year.
Was it all about the specific candidate with no concern as to how they would work together if both elected? Was it hatred of the GOPe?

Everything Trump accomplished from 2016-2020 vanished in six months. That's why this time we need things concretized into law. And for that, we need congress. The place where hope goes to die.

I think it was the Pechanga tribe. There was a Hot Air commenter whose grandmother had been adopted out of the tribe because she was an orphan, and when she tried to enroll in the tribe as an adult, they wouldn't let her. It seems they'd figured out that the less pieces of the pie they had to slice, the bigger their pie pieces would be. So trying to foist the entirety of Los Angeles on them probably wouldn't work. But it would be really funny to watch!

"thrown away by the Bush, Clinton, Bush, and Obama administrations..." Or mashed into a plan to change the country by some benchmark such as the commemoration and celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence?
>NBC News, June 9, '25 - 'How immigration raids at Ambiance Apparel and Home Depot led to the Los Angeles protests' Trump's escalation of immigration arrests by shifting into workplaces ignited clashes between protesters
and officers in the immigrant-heavy city.
Bits & pieces: "Soon the clashes turned violent, with officers using pepper spray and batons, pushing crowds back with riot shields as some protesters fled or retaliated. A prominent labor leader*** was among those arrested."
"Trump, acting without agreement from state leaders, called in the California National Guard on Saturday. By Sunday, the troops, outfitted with heavy military equipment, had moved into the streets of downtown Los Angeles in a show of force in the state with the largest immigrant population."
"California Attorney General Rob Bonta sued the Trump administration for federalizing the state’s National Guard..."

David Huerta is President of the Service Employees International Union-United Service Workers West (SEIU-USWW) whose members are service workers predominately from the commercial real estate industry. As a labor leader, David has worked to build an immigrant integration program that includes English classes for union members. Under his leadership, hundreds of SEIU-USWW members have become U.S. citizens. In addition, he has advocated for comprehensive immigration reform by empowering SEIU-USWW members to become their own advocates for change.

Daily Tech News 10 June 2025
Top Story
- Ohio University says that all students will be required to learn and be fluent in AI. (The Guardian)
"Ohio State has an opportunity and responsibility to prepare students to not just keep up, but lead in this workforce of the future," said the university's president, Walter "Ted" Carter Jr.
Sigh.
He [Ted] added: "Artificial intelligence is transforming the way we live, work, teach and learn. In the not-so-distant future, every job, in every industry, is going to be [affected] in some way by AI. I'm Ted."
- China shut down public AI chatbots during exam season. (The Verge)
How will esteemed offspring ever be able to enter the civil service now, short of having his knackers chopped off?
And has Ohio State considered that option?
Tech News
- People arguing about the tax code change affecting software development. (Hacker News)
None of whom know what they are talking about.
- YouTube will protect free expression by, uh, protecting free expression. (Ars Technica)
The guidelines of the level of "misinformation" required for content to be removed have been increased - making it less likely that material that triggers the lunatic left will be censored - and staff have been advised to contact their managers if they are unsure that the content crosses the line.
The lunatic left - here admirably represented by Ars Technica itself - is outraged that differences in opinion are permitted at all.
- Apple - who have not gone all-in on AI, almost uniquely among the big tech companies - says that AI cannot think, and they can prove it. (Tom's Hardware)
Oh, and they're right. At least as far as LLMs go, which are gobbling up 99% of the investment and research efforts.
- Speaking of which, ChatGPT was trounced in a chess match... Against an Atari 2600 from 1732. (Hot Hardware)
It's expected to line up next month against the Antikythera Mechanism.
- MacOS 26 will be the last version that supports Intel hardware. (9to5Mac)
Err... They seem to have skipped a few version numbers there.
- The GPD MicroPC 2 is an upgrade to the GPD MicroPC. (Liliputing)
Notably with twice the RAM (now 16GB soldered) and a full-size M.2 2280 storage device.
- 3GB GDDR7 modules exist. (WCCFTech)
Which we already know because they're used in Nvidia's 24GB laptop RTX 5090 and the $10,000 96GB RTX Pro 6000.
These could save the RTX 5060 an 8GB RTX 5060 Ti by upgrading them to 12GB - four 3GB modules instead of four 2GB - but at $10 each they cost a lot for that extra 1GB.

Alfred, Lord Tennyson
Below the thunders of the upper deep,
Far, far beneath in the abysmal sea,
His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep
The Kraken sleepeth: faintest sunlights flee
About his shadowy sides; above him swell
Huge -->sponges
And far away into the sickly light,
From many a wondrous grot and secret cell
Unnumbered and enormous polypi
Winnow with giant arms the slumbering green.
There hath he lain for ages, and will lie
Battening upon huge sea worms in his sleep,
Until the latter fire shall heat the deep;
Then once by man and angels to be seen,
In roaring he shall rise and on the surface die.

Usually a value coming back from a function call that doesn't fit at all with what is expected, and how to handle a situation like that (in the exception handler part) isn't properly written because the programmer was of the mindset "Well that will never happen" or "That's impossible, I won't worry about it."
Haha, no. It's always possible and it will eventually happen. Code your exception handlers accordingly.
Also, never code your impossible exceptions to throw very crudely worded messages to your end-user. *cough* I may have learned that lesson the hard way.

So it's like saying 'Pick up hammer Ugh' instead of ' Pick up the hammer Ugh'. 'We are University' instead of 'We are the University'. Weird.

All righty, if said "chatbotlings" can do that now, without the blessings and benefits conveyed by having attended "The" Ohio State University, then what is the point of attending "The" Ohio State University in the first place?

"giggity giggity" is a verbal tick of a character, Glenn Quagmire, in "Family Guy"
Glenn Quagmire, who is usually referred to by his surname, is a fictional character from the American adult animated sitcom Family Guy. He is a neighbor and friend of the Griffin family and is best known for his hypersexuality and his catchphrase, "Giggity Giggity". The show's creator and voice actor Seth MacFarlane describes him as "an appalling human being who is still caught in the Rat Pack era" based on anachronistic 1950s party-animal clichés.
It's the cartoon equivalent of Matthew McConaughey saying, "all right, all right, all right" when he starred as David Wooderson, another skeevy character, in the 1993 film "Dazed and Confused".
Here endeth the cultural catch phrases lesson.

"The rainy weather affected the picnic." (Verb)
"The rainy weather had an effect on the picnic." (Noun)
"Impact" is also supposed to be a noun. But in the continual enverbification of English nouns, it got co-opted (from an adjective, as in "impacted wisdom tooth") to mean "affected."

The phrasal verb impact on, as in ‘when produce is lost, it always impacts on the bottom line’, has been in the language since the 1960s. Many people disapprove of it despite its relative frequency, saying that make an impact on or other equivalent wordings should be used instead. New formations of verbs from nouns (as in the case of impact) are often regarded as somehow inferior

I'm patiently transcribing bibliographies of legacy publications on metallocene polymerization catalysts from Word and Excel documents into EndNote. I have about 5000 of them to do and I've gotten maybe 10% of them done. I also have to get a list of articles from about 2020 to 2025 from SciFinder, but I need to fix my account with Chemical Abstract Services.
Google Scholar is a big help. Copy the DOI or title into the search box and the bibliography comes up. There's a link to import the reference into EndNote, which is the work of a moment.
Of course, once that's done, how do I get the publications themselves? There are a few available on Research Gate and similar repositories, and some are in open-access journals, but the great bulk of them would otherwise require purchase, at about $50 an article. Don't think that's happening. Patents, which have no copyright, are so much easier to work with.
I've also purchased what I hope is a used version of ChemDraw so I can do the drawings.

There is open source software that has been available for years that will allow you to drive through a parking lot with your phone camera capturing parked car after car after car. The OCR software is prety good for captuing the plates into processable text, and good but still improving on determining make, model, year and color of the car with that license plate.
That is, the tech to do ALPR is everywhere there is a phone.

In recent days, violent mobs have attacked ICE Officers and Federal Law Enforcement Agents carrying out basic deportation operations in Los Angeles, California.
These operations are essential to halting and reversing the invasion of illegal criminals into the United States.
In the wake of this violence, California’s feckless Democrat leaders have completely abdicated their responsibility to protect their citizens.
That is why President Trump has signed a Presidential Memorandum deploying 2,000 National Guardsmen to address the lawlessness that has been allowed to fester.
The Trump Administration has a zero tolerance policy for criminal behavior and violence, especially when that violence is aimed at law enforcement officers trying to do their jobs.
These criminals will be arrested and swiftly brought to justice.
The Commander-in-Chief will ensure the laws of the United States are executed fully and completely.

Monday Overnight Open Thread - June 9, 2025 [Doof]
Making Danny Noonan Proud Dentist Who Caddied There as a Kid Just Qualified to Play in the US Open on the Same Course
As the emotions were about to erupt from his eyes, Matt Vogt tried not to cry. Matt Vogt (pronounced ‘vote’ ) grew up outside of Pittsburgh and spent his teenage years working as a caddy at the famous Oakmont Country Club. That course is hosting professional golf’s 125th U.S. Open next week. And thanks to a sequence of events that seems stolen from Hollywood, Vogt will be playing in it. Ranked way down at 1,173 in the World Amateur Golf Rankings, Matt works as a dentist in Indianapolis—but he shot 8-under par to win the U.S. Open’s Final Qualifying tournament in Washington state last weekend, earning himself a trip back to his hometown to star in golf’s national championship. *** Vogt, who played college golf at Butler University in Indiana, advanced through local qualifying earlier in the spring, then won this year’s Indianapolis Open.Read the whole thing. Cool story. Caddyshack quotes welcomed and encouraged in the comments!
(H/T to Cheri in comments from this morning's Art Thread) June 9, 1973 – Secretariat wins the Triple Crown at Belmont Stakes.
Secretariat (March 30, 1970 – October 4, 1989), also known as Big Red, was a champion American thoroughbred racehorse who was the ninth winner of the American Triple Crown, setting and still holding the fastest time record in all three of its constituent races. He became the first Triple Crown winner in 25 years and his record-breaking victory in the Belmont Stakes, which he won by 31 lengths, is often considered the greatest race ever run by a thoroughbred racehorse. During his racing career, he won five Eclipse Awards, including Horse of the Year honors at ages two and three. Widely regarded as one of the greatest racehorses of all time, he was nominated to the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in 1974. In the Blood-Horse magazine List of the Top 100 U.S. Racehorses of the 20th Century, Secretariat was second to Man o' War.
The legend of Secretariat was on full display at this year's Kentucky Derby

(H/T to Anonosaurus Wrecks in comments from last night's Gun Thread) Gainesville woman charged with rape after allegedly buying drinks for victim and manipulating him into returning to her apartment
Eryn Michelle Lane, 25, was arrested yesterday and charged with sexual assault after allegedly buying drinks for a man and manipulating him into returning to her apartment. The victim told an Alachua County Sheriff’s Detective that he was friends with Lane at the time of the incident, and he was aware that Lane was interested in a romantic and sexual relationship with him, but he had made it clear that he was not attracted to her and had no intention of being romantic with her. In early January, a group went out drinking, including Lane and the victim, and the victim said Lane picked him up in her car; at the bar, he said, Lane bought him shots and drinks, and at one point, he reminded her that he was not interested in her and she reassured him that nothing would happen between them. The victim said that when the group left the bar, Lane refused to let their designated driver drive her car unless the victim agreed to come to her apartment; the victim said she threatened to drive drunk and crash the car if he did not agree, and he gave in after an argument that lasted about 30 minutes. He said he continued to drink at her apartment and then woke up next to Lane in her bed. He said Lane asked him if he wanted to go “round two,” and he demanded that she take him home. Several witnesses corroborated the victim’s account of the evening, and one friend and one ex-boyfriend reportedly said that Lane is a “pathological liar.” Post Miranda, Lane reportedly confirmed that she had intercourse with the victim but said he initiated it; she said she told him he was too drunk, but he insisted, which reportedly contradicted her statements to other friends immediately after the incident. She initially denied buying drinks for the victim but later changed her answer when confronted with statements from other witnesses. She said she wanted the victim to come back to her apartment for his safety and that everyone involved was “conspiring against her and this is why her statement is different than everyone else’s.”

The remarkable thing about Big Red's victory in the Belmont is not the 31 length margin he won by. It's that he shattered the time for a mile and a half by more than two seconds. No horse has come within two seconds of that time since then.
Hand ride all the way. Turcotte never even showed him the whip.
Just as amazing to watch the Preakness. Secretariat is last going into the clubhouse turn and going to the outside just blows by everyone in a few seconds.

Individually the musicians of Rush are fantastic. But every song I've ever heard from them is a tuneless showpiece for their skills. The drummer goes crazy for a bit, then the guitar, etc. It never comes together into anything resembling a tune. They really needed someone to rein them in and lead them in a common direction.

Going to disagree with this to an extent.
The people directing the activities knew what they were doing that I agree, but the people breaking the fences down generally did not.
As one current example, I know plenty of LIVs upset about ICE/deportations. Do they actually care about the "immigration rights" of the invaders? Oh hell no. They want cheap nannies/gardeners/whatever. But these people, unlike the ones leading the NGO/and office holders aren't doing this because they want to break America they just want cheap services.
And you can see this dynamic in any number of cultural changes over the years from abortion, to globohomo, to the war on poverty and on and on.
The leadership of the enemy come up with attractive ways to sell poison to people, who then eagerly swallow it thinking they are getting candy.

If Newsom Wants the White House, He Needs to Show Up in the Streets...he should start by walking into the crowd downtown. Face the people. Let the cameras roll. Dare them to arrest you. At this moment, that’s not political theater—it’s leadership the people are craving...
Gavin Newsom doesn’t need another interview or press release. He needs a moment.
Imagine the governor of California—surrounded by National Guard troops and riot police—walking into a crowd of peaceful protesters holding an American flag. Not flanked by aides. Not behind a podium. There with the people. Present. Daring the system to turn its power on him the way it has on so many others...
This is Newsom’s state—and Trump is invading it. These are his people. And if he wants to lead a nation, this is the test. Walk into the crowd. Face the cameras. Dare them to arrest you.
That’s not political theater. That’s how presidents are born.

Steward Copland disagrees with you about Ringo: "Copeland says. “I’m sitting with him at a dinner, and we start talking bass drums”. Copeland is charming, although he gets a little assertive when we ask why Ringo has been underrated by the general public. “He isn’t.” And then Copeland starts again: “At long last, he’s being appreciated for the musician he is. Normally, singers and guitarists just want a backbeat: ‘Give us a simple backbeat, nothing flashy.’ Ringo did more than that, and it was refreshing to hear a drummer who did.”

I've heard it said, even by drummers, that Ringo Starr is a human metronome with the sticks. Ringo was the 'Beat' in the 'Beatles'.
Even though he sounds simple or even basic at first, the more you listen to Ringo, the more amazed you become. What a solid drummer. And as you show, very underrated. Like everything else, flash gets the press but slow and steady wins the race. For all kinds of reasons, Rush will never be listed in the same category of influence as The Beatles. Ringo is one of four reasons why.

Concur. Ringo is a musician's musician or a drummer's drummer. Ringo was profoundly original. He has a genus for coming up with drum parts that were identifiable as a great guitar riff. Ticket to Ride for example. Then there is how utterly filled out the Beatles sound/arrangements: Dear Prudence.

But one year back in my wayward yout', I was visiting an old family friend, who did everything, but was smart about it. (Long story) He asked if I wanted to do a Downer. I wasn't going anywhere, and I trusted his pharma knowledge, so for that one time, I tried a downer.
And then he turned on the TV and we watched the Belmont Stakes. The most incredible, jaw-dropping horse race, in ultra downer-vision. That horse... just kept pulling further & further ahead! Unforgettable.

If you're gooing to go with solo careers post-Beatles, you have to give it to Paul. Even a hit with a 'James Bond' film opening theme song. That's pretty diverse. His band, Wings, was a huge commercial success. You have to hand it to Paul for that, and I think he was instrumental (pun intended) in The Beatles' commercial success as well. George had his solo songs, and I had one of his albums (the only solo post-Beatles album I bought) but of the 4, Paul's been # 1 post-Beatles. Him being still alive helps, too.
But Ringo still gets the accolades.

Steward Copland disagrees with you about Ringo: "Copeland says. “I’m sitting with him at a dinner, and we start talking bass drums”. Copeland is charming, although he gets a little assertive when we ask why Ringo has been underrated by the general public. “He isn’t.” And then Copeland starts again: “At long last, he’s being appreciated for the musician he is. Normally, singers and guitarists just want a backbeat: ‘Give us a simple backbeat, nothing flashy.’ Ringo did more than that, and it was refreshing to hear a drummer who did.”

I'm appreciating Ringo's abilities more and more as time goes on. I've been listening to Abbey Road again lately, and Ringo's drumming perfectly complements the other musicians around him. He's solid and steady, but you hear his contributions if you listen closely. I'd switch Bonham for Starr myself, but Ringo just might be more influential than all the others.

His hair gel instantly ignites, and the world looks on horrified as he runs screaming in the street, trailing flaming gobs of petroleum products.
He is finally tackled by an elderly veteran, who throws him down to the pavement, holds him down with one foot, and calmly unbuttons his fly and proceeds to urinate on the Governor's head with a mighty flow, extinguishing the blaze.
As the shaken Newsom is bundled into an ambulance, the old vet is asked how he had managed to produce such a copious amount of piss.
He shrugs and says, "They got a new Jane Fonda urinal sticker for the restroom in the VFW. I've been saving it up all day, just for her. Now hand me my cane and get out of my way, cause now I need a beer."

McCartney worked and toured regularly and had some hits. Looking back at his book it is all well crafted but meh to my ear. He really came into his own with the 2000ish band he is still touring with. Mind blowing live act.
Lennon was a train wreck in the early 70s - Ono threw him out and he spent years drunk with Nielsen and it shows. After that he mostly retired until Double Fantasy. We can only imagine what would have come next. Imagine is arguably his best album.
Harrison recorded a lot with mixed results until the Wilbury's. What a killer band, Harrison hit his peak there. After that pretty much quit playing and spent his time fussing around the garden.
Ringo, went right to making pop albums and touring. He became quite the front man and his Allstar bands were/are killer shows. He is so unassuming and so great.

The REAL story is that once, during a routine bi-annual tooth cleaning during his childhood, his dentist talked his mother into agreeing to an additional set of 360 degree xrays, purchasing a night guard, getting a mouth cancer screening test, a series of teeth whitening sessions, and an extended set of Invisalign (TM) braces, for a total cost of well over $4,000 of expenses—uncovered by insurance—over and above the cost of the tooth cleaning. After seeing the impressive revenue-generating potential of a life of dentistry, he dedicated himself to becoming a DDS.

- Free buses
- Universal free child care
- A network of city-owned grocery stores that won't have to pay property taxes or rent
- Unfettered immigration
- "Evidence-based policing" and a goofy mental health outreach agency
- Does not support the right of Israel to exist as a Jewish state
Only 33 years old and kind of cute. Definitely has a chance of winning.

FWIW - my 'job ' history - spanning 44 years:
Job 1 - Hired out of college (engineer)
Job 2 - Answered ad in local paper. Laid off after a year, three months before getting married, company subsequently went bust.
Job 3 - Cold called people in local engineering society directory. It actually worked! Helped two others from Job 2 company find jobs there too.
Job 4 - 'Recruiter' called me. Found out years later he was referred to my by one of the Job 2 folks I'd helped
Job 5 - Fell into after friend from Job 4 left and went there as a temp guy and recommended me to them.
Job 6 - Expressed interest in joining company to a friend from there that I was working with. He had his boss open a requisition tailored to me.
Job 7 - Contacted by recruiter. Stayed almost 20 years.

Saw Patti Lupone quite a few times before she went nuts. Saw her in 'Anything Goes' and 'Evita'. Also in 'Witness', with Harrison Ford (non-singing role). Saw her many, many times sing the National Anthem(s) at Rangers games in the early to mid '80s (while she was on Broadway; usually Sunday night games).
When I saw that 'mask' theatrical drama, I just shook my head. Another liberal loonie.

It's like being "Master and Commander" up against "The Return of the King" at the Academy Awards.
M&C is still an excellent movie, by the way. I rewatched it not long ago and it's held up very well.
They took some Hollywood liberties with the characters (for one thing, Paul Bettany was far too pretty to play Doctor Maturin) but at least the characters were recognizably the same, and the filmmaking itself was top-notch.

I've lived where you're at brother, I get it. Not sure if Linked In is worth a damn anymore, but cast a line anywhere you can. There's a website called, "Upwork" that posts temp positions. Prayers for renewed strength..

So.
The protests in SF are turning out to be essentially a premature elevator fart in an express car to the upper floors, only no on else got on. LA seems only marginally better, only 1 area on 101 was occupied. Apparently, a strong show of force by an authority not of CA is quite effective. Heh.
I heard one news talking head opine that the Mexican flag has become the symbol of the protests. Apparently not a good choice. Deportation is likely even more popular now.
Hang these results on Newsom, Bonta, Pelosi, Harris Bass and every other national Democrat politician.
This leaves the upcoming US Army Parade in DC. Will the fact that it's also Trumps birthday b enough to bring out some of the old old and gray cadre members? It's been many years since I've seen a rifle in your hands...

By trade I'm a heavy equipment mechanic. I'm too old and beaten up now to do it so I found administrative work which I turned out to be pretty good at. Then I got stupid and quit. Found this place from a temp agency after 9 months of no callbacks. Took a pretty big hit in pay but enough to get by on.
I deal with a lot of the higher ups and got my name out there hoping to show competence at everything I undertake. It worked. A couple of the guys went to bat for me and today I got a $4.50 raise and I'm going to work on pic and place machines.

They should teach those in school. I was pointing out similarities to things I know on larger scales during my "interview"
Actually not everything is small. A lot of nitrogen generators. My experience with those is keep the filters really clean. A vaccuume system. I know very little about that. My guess is opposite of a compressor.

Similar story with how I got my current gig. Managed AV integrations and if a crew member got sick, I had to fill the hole wiring an equipment rack or pulling cable. Local school district had openings for a school classroom tech.
I pulled the A+ computer study guide from the local library and crammed for a week before taking the entrance test. Passing grade was 80%. That got me to the second round of interviews, which got me to the final stage with the department director. He didn't think I had enough practical experience and turned me down. Fortunately, another position opened up a week later and since I was the last one left that had passed the entrance test, he hired me at that point. He did not regret it..

I used the tractor to move a bunch of junk car bodies and frames, so I could mow the tall grass, and eventually move the old motor coach that is full of parts back by its own length. Got in there with the mower, deck set up high, and got it partly mowed, and it threw the drive chain for the right wheel. Put it back on. Threw it again. Put it back on. Threw it again. Gave up. Put it back on, motored gingerly back to the barn. I am hearing a repetitive clunk every time the wheels go round. Sprockets are worn bad. I think this mower needs a drive train overhaui. Will park it, and move battery to to #1 Dixon mower.

The guys in back were all white, most of the women in front were Hispanic, and in the corner was a Hispanic kid who could not be over 15. Child labor, anyone?

My brother & his wife are basically foster parenting a pit-bull now.
'Spicey' won't give up a ball.
She wants you to pry this slobber covered ball (she has about 20 around the backyard) out of her vise-grip jaws.
Eventually she'll give up and drop it at your feet if you ignore her long enough.
She'll play fetch for so long that's she'll drink a half a bowl of water in one sitting when she's done.

This is why I've been known to get bored while baby-sitting. I once entertained a 5-year-old who went through rapid-fire, ENDLESS cycles of changing, feeding, and and napping a baby.
"Okay, let's change her now!"
"It's time for a nap!"
(one second later) "Time to eat!"
We must have gone through it, honestly, 40 times. I tried to break it by asking her what she likes to do at kindergarten and she gave me a blank look.
I should have turned on a video of baby elephants.

This is why I've been known to get bored while baby-sitting. I once entertained a 5-year-old who went through rapid-fire, ENDLESS cycles of changing, feeding, and and napping a baby.
When I was a kid, like 8 or so, my parents had me visit the family of a girl who was like 7 (I think they were trying to connect us). Little Angela wanted to play house, which to her consisted of kissing me good bye in the morning and hello when I came home from work, which was basically a 10 second cycle.
I think she just wanted to kiss, and all I wanted was to go explore the orchard next to the house LOL

He was so scared he was probably peeing himself. Which brings up this question: why? Why be so afraid of the public? Why did they freak out so badly? They have a lot to hide and are scared of the public finally having enough and kicking down the doors of the capitol building. They are so terrified of it they freaked out when it was just a protest.

Maybe. But what is the alternative? California is ground zero for illegals and we all want them gone. Despite what leftists say now the rioting started last Friday when ICE started doing raids and arresting people. Just walking away from California and letting it burn is not a serious solution. Last I looked people from California are able to travel wherever they want in the US.
The LA police were not doing anything to assist or protect ICE. Should they have just been left to handle the mob by themselves? They carry weapons too but they would be badly outnumbered.
During the 92 LA riots Bush sent in both the Army and the Marines. I don't remember serious blowback on that. Various NG outfits have on the border for years.

Theories are numerous but the main one seems to be that Hollywood has so annoyed people with noxious girl boss movies with women who can do no wrong humiliating men and defeating enemies three times their size that people just assume whatever comes out will just be more of that and give it a pass.
According to reviews, Ballerina is not that, at all. But by now who trusts Hollywood with a female lead? Especially in an action movie? I mean, when was the last good one, Aliens?

Earlier today I was trying to figure out the circumference inside a hat I want to sell on eBay. It's a little big on me, so I know it's got to be over size 7 US, but how far? There is no size tag. Putting a tape measure inside doesn't work too well, as it keeps slipping.
It turns out (according to the 'Net) there is no exact formula for the perimeter of an ellipse or oval. There are several ways to get approximations. Pi and a square root are both involved. I found a site with a calculator, entered the semi-major and semi-minor axes, and got 22.43 inches, about size 7 1/8 to 7 1/4.
When I tried doing the math myself I got about 66 inches, so I must have not divided by 3 or I must have multiplied somewhere by 3.

He can't believe in God unless God will show up and do tricks at his demand so I think he uses the board as an informal sort of therapy to help him feel that he's ok and smart and smarter than most of the people here And of course God
loves him but think he's sinner in need of God's grace as we all are but no, if there is. God he's just like

String and some masking tape. Tape one end of the string down to the inside of the hat that needs measuring leaving its tail end exposed. Next, tape the string down as you trace the circumference. When the string overlaps the initial spot mark the string with a sharpie. Undo everything and tape the string down on a flat surface and then measure it. Total time: 15 minutes max. Optimize as needed.

I'll try it. But the calculator gave me about what I expected. The hat has to be about 22" inside; 21 7/8 fits me perfectly, and this hat, a Western, is a little too big to fit me even with padding under the sweatband. (It was a gift to me from the Denver Stock Show in 1998, and was always too big.)

As an old spiritual says we are all "standing in the need of prayer." Well, the rest of that song says,"It's me. It's me ,Lord . Standing in the need of prayer ".

True. I've had hats from major makers labeled 7 that were a fraction loose, and ones at 6 7/8 which were fine -- and others of the latter which were too tight and could be fixed by judicious stretching.

We saw "Ballerina" today.
It's a tremendous amount of fun. Just a great action movie that just builds and builds, getting more crazy as it goes along. I could give some examples but that would just spoil the fun. Go in blind if you can.
The story's more or less John Wick with a little girl training to be an assassin to get revenge on the man who killed her father.
I suppose you could see a bit of girl boss if you wished but early on there's a training scene where a male trainee just keeps whipping her butt and she complains that she can't win cuz he's bigger and stronger, so-
Eve's trainer tells her that everyone is bigger than her so she needs to cheat, exploit her opponents weaknesses, don't try to fight fair, fight with anything and everything she can, improvise
"Ballerina" takes that bit of advice to the max and that's what makes the movie so fun.
Eve often finds herself in a bad spot but then uses whatever she can to get out of it. One great thing about the movie is that once Eve finds a weapon to even the odds, she keeps using it in wilder ways until she no longer can.
Excellent summer action flick with a John Wick bonus.
Check it out.

Guess Who's Funding the Riots? You Are, Of Course!

@BillMelugin_ Rioters in LA now throwing fireworks at police horses.
The California state government is also funding CHIRLA and other street terrorism groups.

@LauraPowellEsq EXCLUSIVE: Taxpayer-Funded Nonprofit Behind the Anti-ICE Riots in Los Angeles.
Over the past two days, ICE agents have conducted targeted operations across the Los Angeles region, detaining more than 40 suspected illegal aliens. These enforcement actions triggered large-scale demonstrations, some of which turned confrontational, with reports of vandalism, blocked traffic, and physical clashes with federal agents. The unrest has prompted questions about who is organizing and funding these protests. One of the organizations at the center of the resistance to ICE is the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA), a Los Angeles nonprofit that has long provided legal and advocacy services to illegal aliens. CHIRLA is known for radical positions on immigration--for example, it led a campaign to abolish ICE in 2018. Yesterday afternoon, as clashes with federal law enforcement were heating up, CHIRLA Executive Director Angelica Salas held a press conference during which she announced that the Los Angeles Rapid Response Network's hotline had received more than 50 calls reporting ICE activity and sightings of "men in military garb." LARRN is organized by a coalition of nonprofits, and CHIRLA plays a central role, using its main phone line as the hotline number. LARRN's hotline is one of the communication systems that allows legal observers, volunteers, and other activists to be quickly dispatched to the scene of immigration enforcement actions. During her remarks, Salas referred to SEIU California President David Huerta as her "brother," highlighting CHIRLA's close ties to organized labor in California. Huerta had been arrested during one of the protests for blocking the path of an ICE vehicle, as shown by video footage released by U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli. Governor Gavin Newsom expressed his unequivocal support for Huerta, claiming he was only "witnessing" the action, while Essayli announced his intention to file criminal charges. For her part, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has defiantly opposed federal immigration enforcement in the city, stating on social media Friday, "We will not stand for this" and "No vamos a permitir estas acciones," ("We are not going to permit these actions"). She added that her office would collaborate with community-based organizations that serve immigrants. She has a long relationship with CHIRLA and bragged last year about obtaining federal funding for CHIRLA's programs. That grant is part of a broader stream of public dollars that the organization receives from government sources. In fact, according to a financial audit submitted to the state, the CHIRLA organization received nearly $34 million in revenue from government contracts during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023, with 96% of that funding from the State of California. That figure marks a sharp increase from the prior year, when it received around $12 million in government contract revenue. Agencies contributing to CHIRLA's funding during this period included the California Department of Social Services, the California Arts Council, the Governor's Office of Emergency Services, and the Department of Homeland Security. Notably, as mentioned above, a DHS contract funded CHIRLA to provide citizenship instruction and naturalization services.
With $100,000 remaining on CHIRLA's contract, DHS froze the remaining funds in February. CHIRLA responded by suing. The court denied their motion for a preliminary injunction on May 29. This is one of two lawsuits CHIRLA filed against DHS this year. The other was dismissed for lack of standing and is on appeal. To sum up how this works: Your tax dollars fund an organization that organizes efforts to directly interfere with the federal government's lawful exercise of authority. Then, through its lobbying arm, that organization helps get Democrats elected to office, who then repay the favor by ensuring increased funding.
This is the nonprofit industrial complex at work.
Teachers union communist Randi Weingarten is already pushing a new day of intifada on June fourteenth -- this Saturday.
Laura Powell
@LauraPowellEsq If you are a Californian, the current LA riots are an example of your tax dollars hard at work. The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Right--CHIRLA--is one of the key players in fomenting the violent response to immigration enforcement actions. It's an LA-based nonprofit with a history of taking radical positions on immigration; for example, it led a 2018 campaign to abolish ICE. It currently leads the Los Angeles Rapid Response Network, which gathers intel about enforcement actions and deploys activists to respond. CHIRLA has strong ties to the Democrat Party in California and has supported the election of Democratic candidates through its lobbying arm. It has a particularly close relationship with Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. The organization also has a close relationship with organized labor in the state, which in turn is a major financial supporter of Democrat politicians. On Friday, amid rising tensions, CHIRLA held a rally protesting ICE's enforcement actions and the arrest of SEIU President David Huerta for obstruction. The incredible part is that CHIRLA's activities are primarily funded by California taxpayers. I obtained a financial audit that shows that for the fiscal year ending June 2023, it received $34 million from the state, mostly through the Department of Social Services, accounting for 72% of its total revenue. This was nearly a three-fold increase over the previous year. CHIRLA also received a $450,000 federal contract in 2023, which Mayor Bass publicly took credit for helping secure. DHS froze funding in February, which prompted a lawsuit from CHIRLA. DHA then canceled the contract, and the lawsuit was then dismissed. Eisenhower warned of the military-industrial complex--now we face a nonprofit-industrial complex.

And then at some point the leftist hellhole leaders figured out if they could just control the vote-counting and vote-reporting, they no longer had to actually "fix the potholes" figuratively speaking. As that realization spread, I'm guessing the rate of grift has approached perhaps 80 percent or more of all government spending.

Gavin needs to communicate this directly to those soldiers. Watch them melt into the scenery.
I recommend the protestors print that and hand them out to the National Guards.
Trump is losing lots of court cases. Yes, he has been allowed to get away with a lot but he is being called out on everything now. If Trump completely ignores the courts he needs the military to support that. We are now in a battle for the hearts and minds of the guys with the guns.
So far, I've only seen LA police roughing up anyone. In fact, other than National Guard around detention center, not sure Guard has been involved in anything.
In any event, the immigrants -- missing a paper or two who are likely hiding at home -- are the ones who'll get hurt out of all this.

Sec 252 and 253 apply. Sec. 253 contains "shall" instead of "may", which implies POTUS is obligated to restore order when state authority is unwilling or unable to act to do so.

Long as they're peaceable. Long as they just chant their slogans about wanting Americans to be raped and murdered and forced to pay for the privilege because they believe that they won't be personally impacted... that's their right.
OTOH, it's been too long since protesters were shown what happens to folks who aren't peaceable. Or maybe are just standing a bit too close to folks who aren't peaceable. Seems like time for an education.

Reagan was not a Saint if by this you mean m a person canonized in the RCC . If you're using it to mean a follower of Christ., which is how St Paul uses it., I believe Reagan was a Christian. Of course, if you're using it sarcastically to mean yet another person who did not live up to your expectations, well you'll do you.

400 mostly peaceful people - masks, drums, backpacks with heaven knows what inside - assembled in the street before a Federal building & a hundred nasty law enforcers with rubber bullets, tear gas and crash bangs down the street, waiting until they can move in.

This mentality is why they get away with it. Trump went out and sold this to the American people as the bill that would fund the government, and Congress went out and said they would pass his big beautiful bill.
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHAT THE LAW SAYS! These bastards aren't going to cut anything. Hiding behind the language and the law and the process and the usual lies is why they get away with it.
And people who are partisans eat it up. It's not our side, it's there side. And if ONLY we could fix this thing, but goshdarnit, the law won't let us...

>>My quote from Anderson windows for 10 windows, nothing fancy, mostly crank out style was $24k. I knew they would be expensive but was curious. That does include installation.
I'm replacing 15 windows at a rental property, total with installation is 16k.
These things are highly regionally dependent, I would guess that astronomical costs in Cali are almost exclusively due to government policy rearing it's ugly head.

They really think this because they do not know how the courts work. They think a temporary restraining order = loss. They think the 9-0 court order for the judge to narrow his order and make it specific was a repudiation of Trump that he is ignoring.

While you can ask for anything you want, realistically the most you can get for a house is relative to what the comps are going for in your vicinity and the relative status of your neighborhood.
There is such a thing as over-improving.
I saw one house which was a McMansion surrounded by a sea of sh*t boxes that sold for well under what the flipper wanted for it.

It was pivotal because it made California even more glamorous than it had been before. Sun, surf, beautiful girls, Hollywood, and then the cachet of the Summer of Love induced every liberal shithead in the Northeast and upper Midwest to come here post haste. Reagan had nothing to do with it. Jerry Brown was elected governor in 1975, only the second or third Democrat governor in California history, with the preceding being his father (who was actually a good governor, unlike Jerry).

Things are "possible" when there is a force that has the potential to manifest that thing. "Poss" is literally power.
What atheists mean is "not decided". There's no magical possibility in that, it's just we don't know whether that's in the universe or not.
A people significantly smart enough to not need the Bible as a reference, is not in the "potential" of man simple because we do not know that it is not. That implication employs an argumentum ad ignoratium structure.
A conservative looks at a thing that has manifested and has worked and said "this will work".
So simply because it's theoretical that we "don't need the Bible", doesn't mean that it is inevitable that humanity can be coordinated among similar principles without it.

Its just people. Most people are shitty. They do shitty things.
Those people are driven by supernatural forces - ask yourself would they even exist without that background drive.
Bottom line: Read Revelation. We initially lose, and the forces of darkness get to establish their world wide government. This period is simply the blow struck to one of the heads of the beast. Christ said that the generation which was alive when Israel was reformed will not pass from the Earth before these events occur. Israel was reformed in April of 1948, 77 years ago. I was born 2 weeks before that. Hard to see how anything can keep going much beyond 2068.

So simply because it's theoretical that we "don't need the Bible", doesn't mean that it is inevitable that humanity can be coordinated among similar principles without it.
Posted by: Axeman at June 09, 2025 07:25 PM (krQz2)
Coordination is possible without it, but it's not as nice to live in. I would give as an example Chinese Society, which achieved coordination under the First Emperor 2300 years ago, and has pretty much been stuck at that level ever since. (even today) But being a subject who belongs to an Emperor is not the kind of thing we really would look forward to, no matter how much the WEF wants to impose it.

Exactly! Beto keeps running because he inherited a lot of wealth and really doesn't have anything else to do. The question next election will be to see if the GOP-e faction of the party hates Paxton so much that they'll vote for Beto instead; although I think the GOP-e is well represented in party leadership, but not among rank and file voters so much. Paxton has issues, but he's also won 2 statewide races already. Beto has lost 3 in a row.

Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom Blame Democrat Rioters' Violence on Trump
They're doing everything they can to avoid criticizing their antifa street militias, Hamas jihadists, and foreign invaders for their violence.
This is a MAJOR rule of antifa and other violent black block street paramilitaries: You must never, NEVER criticize your fellow left-wing "protesters" for their violence. They call this "respecting a diversity of tactics." In other words, you might favor non-violent protest, but if your fellow left-wing allies resort to arson, assault, and even murder in the name of your cause, you must not criticize them or point out the terrorists to the police. There is a "diversity of tactics" permitted in "protests," and everyone on the left must respect antifa's and BLM's choice to engage in wanton arson, looting, and violent assaults. Dave Reaboi and Kyle Shideler wrote about this in October 2020, as antifa and related Democrat street paramilitaries organized to shut the entire country down if Trump won the election. Well, he did win it; I mean, if the effort to "fortify" the election was thwarted. They wrote of the plan to deploy peaceful protesters mixed in with violent sociopaths, who the peaceful protesters would be made to support and defend.Choose violence, they mean.
The two groups are curious in their similarities and differences. While the Shutdown DC group appears to be made up of environmental anarchists--and sponsored by a self-described Antifa group--its organizers are seasoned and professionally-trained, and at least one is a union organizer. "Hold the Line" is more academic in appearance; it draws its organizers from the non-profit advocacy and digital tech worlds. Because of its focus on nonviolent street action and mobilization, this document appears to be targeting liberals closer to the mainstream. These two approaches--tailored to two specific types of audiences along the radicalization path--work together in what left-wing organizers have long called, "diversity of tactics." Without using the term, the authors of "Stopping the Coup: The 2020 Guide" addressed this point.
It's important to locate strategic thinking, and offer strategic tools at the grassroots level. If our different organizations, crews, and affinity groups have a shared understanding of the strategy involved we can accommodate different tactics, different groups taking lead on actions at different times, and trust that individual participants and organizers can move with confidence that they are furthering movement goals. This doesn't mean that every group you try to organize with immediately will be the right fit for the fight. It's ok to set an agenda and invite participation and allow groups to choose. (Emphasis added.)
This is exactly the imperative behind official Democrat-Media Party messaging right now: We must never condemn our violent revolutionary foot-soldiers. We will deny that they are violent at all, and, when that fails, we will simply say that Trump provoked the Peaceful Protesters into violence. Kamala Harris respects antifa's Diversity of Tactics.
Participants in nonviolent efforts must not be made to directly condemn the violent direct-actions of others in the coalition. Rather than a moral or ethical objection to violence, this is a strategy that allows both violent and non-violent approaches to exist on a continuum. While politicians, law enforcement, and even some conservative commentators may criticize Antifa and other violent direct-action anarchists, all are publicly insisting that Antifa are merely unwanted agitators in the midst of legitimate protests. But this is wrong. In any given protest, the "agitators" and the "legitimate protestors" are, instead, two products of the same industry which exist in a symbiotic relationship, and may even share overt memorandums regarding agreement on tactics. While Antifa relies upon the mass protest in order to hide among the crowd, the public destruction committed by Antifa draws attention and adds urgency to the political demands of the larger movement.
Kamala Harris broke her silence more than 30 hours after violent immigration riots erupted in Los Angeles--but aimed her fire at President Trump, not the protesters. She called the National Guard deployment a "dangerous escalation," accusing Trump of stoking fear. Key Details: Harris posted a statement to X late Sunday, saying Trump's decision to send in the National Guard "is meant to provoke chaos," accusing the administration of using fear to divide Americans. Harris praised the ongoing demonstrations, calling them "overwhelmingly peaceful," despite viral footage showing protesters hurling rocks, torching vehicles, and vandalizing federal property. Her comments echoed those of California Democrats like Gov. Gavin Newsom and L.A. Mayor Karen Bass, who called the National Guard deployment "inflammatory" and a "chaotic escalation."
This is official antifa protocol in operation: Never, ever condemn or even criticize the left's black bloc rioters and arsonists. Deny they're doing anything at all, and when that fails, suggest that their violent response to police (and shoe stores) is justified by the "provocation" they've endured. Obviously Maxine Waters, a major instigator and defender of the disastrous 1992 Rodney King riots, supports a "diversity of tactics" when fighting Whitey.
Tensions flared again in Los Angeles this week as Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) joined anti-ICE demonstrators on the streets, escalating a volatile situation with harsh rhetoric aimed at federal agents and National Guard troops deployed by President Trump. The California Democrat, a longtime defender of sanctuary cities, was captured on video berating National Guard troops standing outside the Los Angeles Federal Building -- where ICE agents had taken refuge following days of violent protests. The National Guard was activated after mobs swarmed immigration enforcement operations, attacked federal vehicles, and lit fires across downtown L.A. "Why do you have guns?" Waters shouted at the soldiers. "What are you going to do, you going to shoot some kid who's afraid of you and runs? You going to shoot an elected official? If you shoot me, you better shoot straight." Waters continued her tirade, accusing the Trump administration of bypassing California officials to deploy troops in an "outrageous attempt to not only target our sanctuary city but to frighten us and intimidate us."Sean Spicer from 2Way points out that an elected Democrat assemblyman seemed to deliberately instigate the attack on the ICE building. He went to the site, before any riots, running video and "warning" -- more like "cheerleading" -- that "something is going to happen here," and posted that video on TikTok. He was effectively encouraging people to the building and make that "something" happen. He was summoning the rioters. And obviously Gavin Newsom supports a "diversity of tactics" by his antifa and Hamas jihadi allies. Even though local police departments have confessed they cannot stop the violence, he is suing Trump to leave his antifa and jihadist allies continue their Mostly Peaceful Deadly Assaults on cops.
California Governor Gavin Newsom is threatening to sue the Trump Administration after President Donald Trump authorized the deployment of 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles County in response to riots over stepped-up federal immigration enforcement. In an appearance on MSNBC late Sunday, Newsom called the federal move an "unconstitutional act," and accused the Trump Administration of bypassing state authority. The Democrat governor doubled down in a social media post, saying, "Commandeering a state's National Guard without consulting the Governor of that state is illegal and immoral." "Donald Trump has created the conditions you see on your TV tonight. He's exacerbated the conditions. He's, you know, lit the proverbial match. He's putting fuel on this fire, ever since he announced he was taking over the National Guard -- an illegal act, an immoral act, an unconstitutional act," Newsom said on MSNBC.The problem is never antifa, the black bloc, or the Hamas jihadists literally gunning down Jews in the streets. The problem is always the people who "provoke" them into committing murder and mayhem. The Democrat-Media Party two-step on violence committed by their allied street paramilitaries: 1, It's not happening 2, Okay it's happening, but the fascists forced us to burn their cars
He's reckless. He's immoral. He's taken the illegal and unconstitutional act of federalizing the national guard and he's putting lives at risk.

Hispanics are becoming Trump's strongest base of support.
But, I guess actual Hispanics don't know what Hispanics want as much as AWFLs and black women?
The trouble for Democrats, the thing that they don't get, is that Hispanic isn't really a thing.
These people are Mexican, or Cuban, or Puerto Rican, or Columbian, or whatever and, for the most part, each group hates the others.

It all comes down to the second rule of the left: never do or say anything that might assist your enemy. See, Bill Clinton was able to do this strategically but nobody else seems to get it.
These people are Mexican, or Cuban, or Puerto Rican, or Columbian, or whatever and, for the most part, each group hates the others.
Yeah its like "asian." Every one of those nations, including groups WITHIN those nations, hate each other. You think we have creative names and slurs against other groups, you ain't seen nothing like a Korean talking about Japanese, or Chinese, or Javanese, or Laotians or ... you get it.

That's a linguistic "tell". Anytime somebody *combines* words when one would be plenty (and correct), i.e. "illegal and immoral". IF an act is "illegal", to one sworn to uphold the law or one who believes in the rule of law the fact the he/she believes it to ALSO be "immoral" is irrelevant. Anytime you see the words combined, the speaker doesn't *really* believe the act "illegal"--if they did, they would simply call it that.

But seems to me, while correct, also very over-determined.
Bass is a vapid black political class grifter, standard issue. She has time and ties to Cuban intel!!!! OK. Doesn't change a thing. She - and dozens of others exactly like her - have, and will, act exactly the same way, say exactly the same things.
Newsom is a vapid coastal class sub-mediocre political "elite" dummy. No ties to Cuban intel. No ties to Chy-nah (any more than Boeing, Harvard, or the Fortune 100, anyway). He - and dozens of others exactly like him - have, and will, act exactly the same way, say exactly the same things.
Blaming Trump is of course absurd. But 98% of all anti-Trump political discourse is absurd, always has been. Nothing new here. Just a country possibly degraded enough to accept this idiocy. We'll see.

Democrats want this to happen, and have wanted it ever since PDJT was sworn in. In fact, they've been frustrated this has not happened before now. Chris Murphy called for the violence to spread, and other Democrats endorsed his call.
They want this because they think it helps them politically. If people die, that is icing on the cake, in their view.

"Donald Trump incited a violent mob to attack the Capitol. Hundreds of dangerous felons who brutally beat police officers with impunity were then pardoned by the President on his first day in office. Don't ever lecture America about law and order."
Dems don't have a messaging problem (as in not having a good, appealing message). But, the MSM is all owned by the m/billionaire class that the Dems cannot get their message to the swing voters and middle class viewers of the MSM. We have coordinate our message to umpteen lesser viewed outlets, and hope the message can get through.
it is definitely an unfair playing field to put it mildly. But it is what it is. Cohesion of messaging and repetition is one way to fight that.
Since Bush the republicans put out daily talking points and STAY ON MESSAGE. I don't know why Dems haven't done this. They do know it works because they complain incessantly about it. So use it.
We lack "fire in the belly". We use to be passionate as hell but lost it somewhere. It's time to get it back and stop sounding like a bunch of goddamn professors

But, I guess actual Hispanics don't know what Hispanics want as much as AWFLs and black women?
The trouble for Democrats, the thing that they don't get, is that Hispanic isn't really a thing.
These people are Mexican, or Cuban, or Puerto Rican, or Columbian, or whatever and, for the most part, each group hates the others.

I saw Sly on a daytime talk show, Mike Douglas I think, in the late '60s - early '70s. Some of the other celebrities, pretty big mainstream star but I no longer remember who, got into a vicious argument and Sly calmed everybody down. He did a much better job than Mike Douglas himself. He impressed me although I understand addiction destroyed his career.

ICE collars 4 seriously dirtbag criminals (convicted, serious crimes including murder). LAPD/Sheriffs (I guess, in latter case) refuse to provide back-up or support to federal law enforcement, in this case ICE. Mob attacks and menaces main ICE facility, and personnel, as retaliation for nabbing 4 really bad criminals (on judicial warrants - in other words, arresting fugitives).
Nat. Guard pulled in to provide basic defensive security at facilities (really doubt they'll accompany ICE on raids - they have BORTAC, the BP's SWAT outfit, for that).
So LA and CA are in effect actively impeding basic federal law enforcement, to include inciting (more) violence against them. This is outrageous. It's not about a few blocks and cars getting trashed downtown - that's purely a local matter. The important and basic part of the story is the other stuff.

Even assuming any of those things were true, even assuming it all is accurate... every single one of those people had their constitutionally-protected human rights violated such as due process, speedy trial, seeing a lawyer, etc. And that ends all incarceration immediately.

Now notice this. They are always conflating the claim that the election was invalid as "incitement". They count "Fight like Hell" and ignore "Peacefully make your voices heard".
For any sane person, those would be offsetting. So the claim that the election was invalid--the thing that inspired the protest IS their "incitement".

And this is how you get a Strongman leader to act more strongly. The Left doesn't seem to get this irony.
When the vast majority of the population witnesses this
So, when citizens see rioting, they notice their demands being usurped. The result? More and more people gravitate to a stronger leader to implement increasingly proactive action. And if the riots/violence continues, then citizens will not just look away if the government gets more violent; they will demand it.
So the illegals/BLM/Antifa/etc are actually paving the path for a "fascist" to take over and solve a problem/issue they have been demanding to get resolved. They are incubating the next "Hitler".

But ultimately this is a fight over power and money and control. The left's goals require a huge body of new voters and people to establish congressional control, and they are fighting like hell to make sure they keep that. Bodies will hit the ground before they give ground or lose, if they even ever do.
For them, this is life or death. Any tactics, any behavior, any action is justified by their religious zealotry. They believe they are doing holy work and that their opponents are evil and must be stopped at any price.

In the Little Rock Mess, Ike invoked the Insurrection Act, Sec. 253. He federalized the NG to take it out from Faubus's control, and then sent in the 101st Airborne to do the enforcing.
Sending in Marines, regular armed forces, sounds to me like the IA needs to be invoked.

At the time, I thought they were "good"...ish. Now that all the music from that period has aged, I think the "roster" of musicians that played anything approaching "rock" was SO THIN that we allowed ourselves to like bands like that. To me personally, once we got past Alice in Chains and Soundgarden and Nirvana...we were dealing with glorified garage bands rather than really special musicians.
But I'm picky that way.

U.S. Northern Command has activated the Marine infantry battalion that was placed in an alert status over the weekend. Approximately 700 Marines with 2nd Battalion, 7th Marines, 1st Marine Division will seamlessly integrate with the Title 10 forces under Task Force 51 who are protecting federal personnel and federal property in the greater Los Angeles area.

The activation of the Marines is intended to provide Task Force 51 with adequate numbers of forces to provide continuous coverage of the area in support of the lead federal agency.
Task Force 51 is U.S. Army North’s Contingency Command Post, which provides a rapidly deployable capability to partner with civil authorities and DoD entities in response to a Homeland Defense and Homeland Security Operations. It is commanded by Maj. Gen. Scott M. Sherman.
Task Force 51 is comprised of approximately 2,100 National Guard soldiers in a Title 10 status and 700 active-duty Marines. Task Force 51 forces have been trained in de-escalation, crowd control, and standing rules for the use of force.

People really don't want to believe elections are rigged. It violates some central premise of their programming.
It has been estimated that, if you counted all the votes actually cast by eligible voters, Cali and NY and any number of these other third world shithole states would NOT be electing all these people.
That ballots are cast FOR people, not BY people.

I have a theory that George R.R. Martin is lying about being too lazy to finish the series. In my head-cannon, he has tried to finish a few times, but the endings have sucked. Rather than admit he can't do it for lack of talent, he pretends he needs inspiration to strike to get his motivation going. It's preferable to be considered lazy than to admit he's untalented.

Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.

The President, by using the militia or the armed forces, or both, or by any other means, shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress, in a State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy, if it-
(1) so hinders the execution of the laws of that State, and of the United States within the State, that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection; or
(2) opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws.
In any situation covered by clause (1), the State shall be considered to have denied the equal protection of the laws secured by the Constitution.

A Supreme Court case back in the 19th Century ruled there is no judicial review of the President's invocation of the Insurrection Act. It is the sole power of POTUS to decide what triggers it.
They later weaseled something about the military's actions under that would be subject to review somehow, but the invocation is the plenary power of POTUS.

ABC "News" Suspends Woke Partisan Activist Terry Moran for Unhinged Attack on Trump Staffer Stephen Miller
ABC "News" had no idea -- none! -- that Terry Moran was a woke activist before this.
ABC News suspended correspondent Terry Moran after he described Trump adviser Stephen Miller as a "world-class hater" in a post critics say exposed the deep-rooted bias in mainstream media. The network called Moran's comments "subjective personal attacks" and a violation of journalistic standards. Key Details: Moran posted late Saturday night that Miller is "richly endowed with the capacity for hatred," calling both Miller and Trump "world-class haters."Here's my Terry Moran memory: During Obama's first inauguration, one nasty ABC "News" reporter said something completely vicious about the troops. Something along the lines of how the racists in the military must hate it to have to salute a black president. Or something like that. This was a long time ago. I incorrectly attributed it to Fake Jake Tapper, who DMd me to insist he hadn't said it. I asked "Well someone said it, who's in the booth with you?" but he refused to tell me. It was a state secret. He just demanded that I take down my report that he had said it, without giving me any tip about who did say it. After rewinding the tape an hour to finally hear which ABC "reporter" was covering the inauguration with Tapper, I found out it was Terry Moran.
ABC News suspended Moran, saying the comments do "not reflect the views of ABC News and violated our standards."
Vice President JD Vance called the remarks a "vile smear," while the White House press secretary blasted them as "unacceptable and unhinged." Diving Deeper: ABC News is under fire after suspending Senior National Correspondent Terry Moran for a late-night social media tirade targeting Stephen Miller, a top adviser to President Donald Trump. In a since-deleted post on X, Moran unleashed a highly personal critique of Miller, claiming the White House aide is "richly endowed with the capacity for hatred" and feeds on it "like spiritual nourishment." "The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism," Moran wrote. "It's not brains. It's bile. Miller is a man who is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred. He's a world-class hater." The post also lumped Trump into the same category, calling both him and Miller "world-class" haters--language that ignited swift condemnation from conservatives and further fueled distrust of corporate media. ABC News confirmed Moran's suspension to Axios, stating: "ABC News stands for objectivity and impartiality in its news coverage and does not condone subjective personal attacks on others. The post does not reflect the views of ABC News and violated our standards." The response from the Trump Administration was immediate. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt appeared on Fox News Sunday morning, calling Moran's rhetoric "unacceptable and unhinged." She added, "I think this speaks to the distrust that the American public have in the legacy media." Vice President JD Vance echoed those sentiments in a post of his own, calling Moran's words a "vile smear." Stephen Miller, a central figure in the administration's hardline immigration policy, responded directly, saying, "For decades, the privileged anchors and reporters narrating and gatekeeping our society have been radicals adopting a journalist's pose."
An ABC journalist @TerryMoran posted this absolutely vile smear of Stephen Miller. Its dripping with hatred. Remember that every time you watch ABCs coverage of the Trump administration.

Some lefty got canceled in June of 2020 because he highlighted research that showed that the late 60s riots hurt Democrats.
The "riots are bad" line of thought became ungood in Democrat circles, and the very idea of it being bad now simply doesn't enter their minds because they think it worked in 2020.
It didn't.
Covid worked to change voting rules to allow "fortification". It had to work to undo the damage the riots had caused.

The LA riots were part of a series of nationwide protests organized by Communist PSL (Party for Socialism & Liberation) taking place on June 7-8.
Several days ago, Neville Singham was identified as the main backer behind PSL.
PSL printed signage and spokespeople not only for the LA riots, but also for San Antonio and other cities. I'll document Neville Singham's involvement below:

Fox News: DAN GAINOR: The one surprising thing about ABC's Terry Moran and his anti-Trump team social media slam
Terry Moran was suspended by ABC News after calling Trump advisor Stephen Miller 'a world-class hater' while network still claims to stand for objectivity
In part, "Bias has been the hallmark of Moran’s career. He delivered one of the most-embarrassing quotes about President Barack Obama’s entire eight-year presidency and, given the media adoration, that’s impressive: "Barack Obama is the first president since George Washington to be taking a step down into the Oval Office."

It is important to understand that Neville Singham / CCP / Russia are fundamentally opposed to George Soros. Yes, both Singham and Soros are extreme left.
But Singham is the old school Communist / Marxist / Leninist subversive, whereas Soros works within socialists. To that end, don't be surprised that PSL opposes NATO - because they want the CCP/Marxism to be our replacement overlords:

Normally, any institution set up for a purpose becomes eternal, surviving long after it is useful and even creating more of the problem it was intended to fix because that is how it grows. We see this with drug war, homelessness, famine relief, etc.
But in this case the Left has created a network of agitators to create strife against Trump and rile up their base. They were so successful (at agitating) that they now have a large bureaucracy of funding, training, logistics, etc. and a large mass of troops ready and willing to protest.
They are an unstoppable force continuing on in spite of being counter productive to their original aims. They are convincing the public that they really are the bad guys and Trump was right. That was never their goal but the system is in place and must act.

Marco Rubio and Lindsay Graham sent a letter to Merrick Garland begging then-AG Garland to investigate Singham for violations of FARA. Evidently, nothing happened.
Perhaps @EagleEdMartin will take it over from here - now that Singham is well linked to the past weekend's anti-ICE protests.

Even if those people know better they still instinctively think “cnn says it so there must be something to it”. I’ll admit to that as well. I can talk myself out of it, but it’s not always easy.
And even if we all would ignore cnn, they (along with NYT, WaPo etc) still drive the news every day. Right leaning media simply responds to them. But we never drive the narrative. We’re always playing defence to their offense. That’s an enormous advantage for them that won’t go away any time soon.

And they built out every sort of org these people might want - to you want to make media? Do you want to write? Do you want to "organize" etc etc all the way to do you want to engage in terrorism and violence?

DHS’s 2025 list of 20 Minnesota counties and two cities as "sanctuary jurisdictions" further fuels this criticism, alleging these areas obstruct federal immigration enforcement.
In summary, while Minnesota has not passed legislation to become an official sanctuary state, its existing policies and local practices in places like Minneapolis and St. Paul lead to conflicting views, with DHS and critics labeling it a sanctuary state, while supporters see it as a compassionate but not fully sanctuary jurisdiction.

Everything the left does are pressure campaigns.
Feminized power that can't act directly must push others who will do what they seek.
Escalations against defenseless targets to pressure the actual target.
That's why Trump infuriates and frustrates them: Their pressure doesn't work.
Because he is direct.
They live in a world where they still think the "pussy" tape worked.
That's why they are so invested in the Russia Collusion--it was the only explanation that fit why it didn't work: Trump cheated.
So, they still haven't adjusted to a reality that's nine years old now ....
And they're just that one, perfect pressure campaign away from beating Trump.

🚨 Let’s break this down:
1️⃣ Neville Singham is deeply tied to PSL, the group behind last weekend's anti-ICE protests.
2️⃣ He was also the force behind last year's pro-Palestine campus unrest.
3️⃣ Senate Republicans urged the Biden admin to investigate him for FARA violations. Nothing happened.
4️⃣ He’s operating on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party.
If all this is true, and there's a lot of evidence it is, then we are actively ignoring CCP influence on U.S. soil.
🤔 Why are we doing this to ourselves?
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

Builders vs. Takers
Hispanics are becoming Trump's strongest base of support.
But, I guess actual Hispanics don't know what Hispanics want as much as AWFLs and black women?
Anyway, if only Hispanic men voted in 2024, Kamala would have won 4 states: NY, IL, MD and CA.
That "collapse of knowledge systems" essay linked at Insty is weighing heavily on my mind:
The left is deep, deep inside these collapsing systems--it's not just that they don't know that they can't trust the knowledge they rely on, it's that they can't allow themselves to even ask.

Rasmussen poll (spit) showed Trump's highest approval among races was with Hispanics.
Higher than whites.
We'll see, but it seems like it's possible that Republicans could end up benefiting from Trump's anti-illegal immigration gusto bigly. Like...Hispanics voting 60-40 or better for the GOP in near future elections.
I can't wait for the 2028 Democrat candidate to run on deporting legal Hispanic green card holders.

"Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Monday said he is “retiring” all 17 members of a crucial government panel of vaccine advisors, a shocking step that could help to sow doubts about immunizations in the U.S.
“A clean sweep is needed to re-establish public confidence in vaccine science,” Kennedy said in an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal on Monday."

I am not anti-vax. The jab was not a vax, but a controversial new and relatively untested immunotherapy for which they leveraged historical vaccine and medical provider trust to conduct a massive, public trial without informed consent. And they killed a lot of people, while their buddies got rich off of it.
If you are not making a gallows platform plea for mercy, you can cry me a river about people being anti-vax after that.

As Their Fellow Democrats Attempt to Murder Police, Some Democrats Actually Say to Tamp Down on Violence.
Not Because It's Wrong, But Only Because It Plays Into Trump's Hands.
Physics Geek
@physicsgeek Dems, a few hours ago: There are no riots occurring. Dems, now: Please stop rioting because it will help the GOP. Note well how it's never "Please don't riot because it's bad and against the law." Everything is viewed through the prism of "does it help or hurt our party?"
Adam Schiff
@SenAdamSchiff Los Angeles -- violence is never the answer. Assaulting law enforcement is never ok. Indeed, doing so plays directly into the hands of those who seek to antagonize and weaponize the situation for their own gain. Don't let them succeed.
I linked this earlier, but if you missed it: Terrorists hurl heavy chunks of concrete from a bridge overpass and hit a cop in the head. That cop may well end up dying. It's an attempted murder that may, unfortunately, become an actual murder. And the Democrat-Media Party defends this and claims it's "mostly peaceful." And Democrats say "don't murder police, only because it Helps Trump." Bonchie links John Heilmann claiming "there was nothing like a riot on Friday and Saturday night" to conform with the Democrat-Media Party line that it was Trump who escalated this into riots. But we watched the riots Friday and Saturday night.
BonchieMegan Basham makes a similar point about John Heilmann's relentless disinformation and gaslighting:
@bonchieredstate Again, I ask, if they'll lie about something this obvious, countering video evidence, what won't they lie to you about? How did we get four years of lying about Joe Biden's health? This is how. There are no limits.
Megan BashamAntifa terrorists are throwing tear gas canisters back at police -- which is assault. They also brought leaf-blowers to blow gas at the police. In the midst of rioting, car burnings, and attempted murder against the police, Maxine Waters calls for people to take to the streets to "resist." Apparently Mexicans are now all Palestinians. The Sweethearts of the Rainbow Jihad were also well-represented. What do we do when Our Strength turns against us?
@megbasham I think what we are seeing is a media that does not know how to adjust to the new American awareness of their duplicity. So they keep doubling down, somehow failing to realize that every time they do it, the already record-low opinion Americans have of them sinks lower.

2) That the Democrats are actually trying the "fiery but mostly peaceful protests" thing again. I know that most of their voters have IQs immeasurably low, but even most of the dimwits will notice that the "protests" aren't really that peaceful. Will they vote differently? Probably not because partisan, but they certainly notice the riots.

This unfortunately relies on the assumption that the media is the way they are for "votes".
Most of our side can't put ourselves in the position of the Left, to really understand them, so we default to "they're lying to win elections" because that's what makes it make sense to us.
It does make sense another way though. They lie because it's their native tongue. They lie to "activate" and "recruit", neither of which care about votes as such.
They already have the vote. The current opposition is temporary. They have no intention of ever winning people back with any version of "the truth". Forget it.

2022 was the high water mark for stealing elections.
2024 was the beginning of a receding tide.
The RNC that orchestrated that receding tide is still managed by Michael Whatley who was dismissed as a conspiracy theorist and election denier when Trump tapped him for the post after (finally) getting rid of Ronna "Flowers" McDaniel.
And...1,000,000 foreign born residents have already left America in the last 4 months. People like Presler are continuing to clean up election rolls. If any number of those 1,000,000 were auto-registered, they'll be coming off, lessening the bucket of votes to manufacture from.
Maybe there's signs of hope.

Throwing any hard object at a cop is assault.
Pushing a cop is assault.
Blocking a road is illegal.
Property destruction is illegal.
Arson is illegal.
Vehicle destruction is illegal if it's not yours and you don't have permission.
Wearing masks while demonstrating is not against the law in L.A. but should be. If it were, there could be mass arrests.
But there is so much going on that there could be thousands of arrests. Assault. Road blockading. Pyro discharge. Arson. There's plenty to work with here.
80 percent are gonna agree that arrests and prosecutions for these crimes should be done, so why not begin the slow grind of doing it all? The thousands that were arrested, charged, and imprisoned for J6 were not all arrested on J6. The FBI was arresting people for years.

Posted by: tubal
The entire principle of "maximize urban density," which dominate City Planning and architectural theory these days, is based on this concept. Studies proved that the more crowded conditions people live in, the most leftist they are. Seeing these stats, the brilliant Urban Planning theorists assumed that correlation is causation, and declared that forcing people to live in crowded cities will turn them into leftists. And ever since all Urban Planning has been designed to "maximize density: for this very reason.
It never occurred to them that the causation goes the other way, that freedom-loving sane people fled the cities to the suburbs and rural areas, leaving behind the residue of crazy radicals to fester in their own stew undiluted in the central urban ghettos.

They have one thing they value - power. Anything that gives them power is good, anything that reduces it is not just bad but rank evil.

I don't understand how this stuff works but can't they geo fence where the riots are and track every vehicle, cell phone, smart watch and fitness tracker, ear buds in the area? If they don't roll all of these people up and prosecute the organizers I will be disgusted but not surprised.
A number of years ago there was a guy mailing bombs out of Kinkos or something like that.
The feds took all the cell phone data the geolocated to the Kinkos the bombs were mailed out of, figured out who the likely bomber was, then found where his phone was in real time and interdicted him.
This was year ago now...this stuff is even easier to do now.

The United States must accelerate the safe commercialization of drone technologies and fully integrate UAS into the National Airspace System. The time has come to accelerate testing and to enable routine drone operations, scale up domestic production, and expand the export of trusted, American-manufactured drone technologies to global markets. Building a strong and secure domestic drone sector is vital to reducing reliance on foreign sources, strengthening critical supply chains, and ensuring that the benefits of this technology are delivered to the American people.

Israel Arrests Greta Thunberg and Her Terror Boat; They'll Force Her to Watch 43 Minutes of Hamas Footage of their Murders and Rapes
It won't matter. She is possessed by demons. Her boat carried less than one truck-full of food, which she claimed she was bringing to Gaza to stop the genocide. They needed all that space for their videocameras, phones, and make-up kits. This Israelis call her boat "the selfie yacht."Israeli naval forces boarded and detained a boat of activists, including climate campaigner Greta Thunberg, early Monday as it attempted to breach the Gaza maritime blockade. Key Details: The intercepted vessel, Madleen, was part of a pro-Palestinian mission led by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, which aimed to challenge Israel's naval blockade and deliver aid to Gaza. Among the 12 detained were Greta Thunberg, Brazilian activist Thiago Ávila, and French-Palestinian European Parliament Member Rima Hassan. They are expected to be deported after reaching Ashdod Port. Israeli authorities criticized the voyage as a publicity stunt, calling it a "selfie yacht" mission and warning it undermined legitimate humanitarian efforts and risked Israeli security.She's claiming Israel has "kidnapped" her.
Greta Thunbergs aid flotilla had less than one truckload of food.

I instructed the IDF to show the flotilla passengers the video of the horrors of the October 7 massacre when they arrive at the port of Ashdod. It is appropriate that the anti-Semitic Greta and her fellow Hamas supporters see exactly who the Hamas terrorist organization they came to support and for whom they work is, what atrocities they committed against women, the elderly, and children, and against whom Israel is fighting to defend itself.

I think the movie and book have different endings. Burgess' novel was supposed to end with him fixed. Kubrick's movie ends with him very much not fixed, that the oppression of the system couldn't work out his antisocial behavior.

Conditioning that can be beaten out isn't much of a fix.
The fix that made him sick at the thought of violence isn't a fix. It denies him agency. It doesn't actually fix him. It manipulates him until he can't act on his own anymore. It denies him his humanity, his free will.
And...it's beaten out of him. They haven't changed him in the end. It didn't work.

"I would do it I were Tom," Trump responded. "I think it's great. Gavin likes the publicity. But I do think it would be a great thing. He's done a terrible job. I like Gavin Newsom. He's a nice guy, but he's grossly incompetent. Everybody knows."

Trump better not do it, it's just what Newsome WANTS. Can claim to be a pomade wielding freedom fighter martyr for the next presidential elections. It's the only way an old white guy has a shot on the DNC ticket.

18 USC 1324 Aiding and abetting Illegals says it does not need to be 'direct' support... even encouragement is enough... especially as it specifically relates to Conspiracy, which is directly written into the law.
Calling a City a sanctuary city IS a direct violation of that law... as it is a conspiracy to encourage more illegals to come, and stay.

Conditioning that can be beaten out isn't much of a fix.
The fix that made him sick at the thought of violence isn't a fix. It denies him agency. It doesn't actually fix him. It manipulates him until he can't act on his own anymore. It denies him his humanity, his free will.
And...it's beaten out of him. They haven't changed him in the end. It didn't work.

>The Guardian, Macron must lead the EU push to end Israel’s war on Gaza, Jo-Ann Mort, June 9, 2025
In part, "Macron, by promoting a Palestinian state and placing himself in the lead on the world stage on this – especially as the US has lost global leadership under Trump – walks a path that previous French governments have pursued. Indeed, Michel Rocard, who was prime minister during the Mitterand presidency decades ago, was particularly involved in behind-the-scenes negotiations. Today, Macron has broad support at home – including from political factions on the left – for this effort.
Meanwhile, the Israeli government is going full force against Macron. The foreign minister, Gideon Sa’ar, has accused Macron of being on an anti-Israel “crusade”. It’s an unprecedented attack not only on an Israeli ally, but on the country that is home to the largest population of Jews on the European continent. Later, the Israeli defense minister and even the prime minister chimed in to attack Macron in an ugly and dangerous manner."

And the "Palestinians" did with it what they always do. There's a reason they get kicked out of every territory they've ever occupied. All they do is make war on the country that hosts them. If they win, they make war on each other and everyone else. Forever. Jordan, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon - all of them have kicked these people out. They get back in sometimes (see Lebanon and much of Syria now). Why does Macron think Egypt built a militarized border with Gaza?

“The CO forced some of the local German people to walk through the camp. A lot of us figured there was no way they couldn’t have known what was going on. He wanted them to see how cruel, inhuman and evil the German army was. Some of them wept, many covered their faces from the stench, some vomited. But there were some who were just stoned faced and seemed unrepentant. Those were the people I held most in contempt.”

Probably some. But more likely are text messages (using one of the various encrypted services) with details of how - and with whom - they were coordinating this trip. This wouldn't have happened without a rendezvous plan and propaganda agenda on the Gaza side of things, and that means Hamas was absolutely involved.
Probably not so much about not exposing the Hamas operators, because Israel probably already knows who they are (or has a short list of good guesses). Probably much more about methods, coordination and logistics.

Hey, rioters, @MayorOfLA, @GavinNewsom, @LAPDHQ, @LASDHQ & @NathanHochmanDA,
Well done!
Let’s chase away the few insurance companies willing to stay in California after the fires and previous riots.
As for the insurance companies willing to stay, let’s not enforce law and order—giving them more reason to jack up premiums.
This adds to the ridiculously high cost of housing (2x that of the nat’l average), of operating a business and of living in this state.

Routine comms. Could be forensically useful, and give the IDF a window into how Hamas coordinate with outsiders, possibly. Their electronics were probably not hugely valuable from an intelligence standpoint. Ditching them probably had three purposes:
1. A stunt. Make 'em look like fighters and shit.
2. Hamas probably asked them to. Why give up more than you have to?
3. Personal ass-covering. You can be sure everyone on that boat said some ... unseemly things they wouldn't want to get out. And in case someone back home decides to prosecute them for something, why the law dogs any help?

When I was in High School we watched film of one of the camp liberations. One shot showed stacks of extremely emaciated bodies. The liberating soldiers were making the German camp members do some sort of physical labor. I noticed one of them got tired and sat down on the stack of bodies. It helped reinforce to me that person's complete lack of care for the deceased.

Interesting theory, but I think you have to consider the players. I really do believe the left has turned into Non-Player Character. They are told to do or believe or support something....and off they go. Ukraine, Gaza, Harris, BLM, ANTIFA, RIOTS, Illegal Immigrant Criminals. There is no rational justification to get solidly behind any of these issues unless you're just doing so because it has been so ordered.
Often I wonder if the play callers are sitting at a board table somewhere sipping a glass of scotch and coming up with scenarios like. "I'll bet you my home in Miami that I can get a movement going that believes men can get pregnant." "I'll take that action. Is it waterfront?"

Posted by: Elric Blade at June 09, 2025 03:07 PM (iFTx/)
Oh definitely. Nobody is out protesting in the streets because they genuinely are upset at wasteful spending being cut. They are out because they've been told to go out. They don't know what is going on or what is wrong (you can tell, because when they are asked, the literally don't know). They activate because they are told to, because they feel it gives meaning to their life, and because they are subjects of their mighty God-king, the leftist cabal in government.
Oh, and they are convinced that no matter what the action, its evil and wrong if the center or right does it. Remember Stephen Colbert's audience applauding the firing of James Comey until they were told it was now a Bad Thing™ because Trump did it?
