Posted by the Idaho murder suspect 212 days ago, it seems:

@BrianEntin
I am told when Idaho quadruple homicide suspect Bryan Christopher Kohberger was in custody -- he "asked if anyone else was arrested."
I'm told he had a "quiet, blank stare."

Was he trying to suggest he had recruited other people into his murder plot?

Police found the Hyundai Elantra they were looking for, by the way. They won't elaborate about it, so we don't know if it's connected to the killer or just belongs to a random innocent.

Speaking of deranged narcissistic psychopaths responsible for many deaths:

The walls in Dr. Anthony S. Fauci's home office are adorned with portraits of him, drawn and painted by some of his many fans. The most striking one is by the singer Joan Baez. The two of them, he said, "have become pretty good friends over the years."
Dr. Fauci seemed a little uncomfortable with people knowing about the pictures. He said that previously, when they were captured on camera, the "far right" attacked him as an "egomaniac." If someone goes to the trouble of sending him a portrait of himself, he said, he would "feel like I'm disrespecting them" if he discarded it.
It was a revealing glimpse into the psyche of America's most loved and hated doctor as he wraps up more than half a century of government service at the National Institutes of Health.

People, including those on the left, are noticing that "Mayor Pete" is just a stuffed-shirt incompetent who likes going on vacation and sitting down for puff-piece interviews with the Identity Politics "press."

That's leftwing pundit David Sirota. Breitbart.com is similarly dismissive.

Three months ago, the Transportation Secretary told late-night comedian James Corden that airline travel would improve by the holiday season.
Buttigieg has reportedly ignored state attorneys general's repeated requests to protect customers and hold airlines accountable for canceling flights in the months leading up to the ongoing holiday travel fiasco.

Breitbart notes that Democrat Congressman Ro Khanna is tired of Mayor Pete's bungling and vacationing.

In a tweet on Thursday, Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), one of the few Democrats who criticized Twitter's decision to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story, publicly scolded Buttigieg for not sticking to his pledge to hold airlines accountable.
"Nearly six months ago ⁦@BernieSanders⁩ & I called for Buttigieg to implement fines & penalties on airlines for cancelling flights. Why were these recommendations not followed?" the congressman tweeted. "This mess with Southwest could have been avoided. We need bold action."

A Sanders ally, Nina Turner, said of Bootyjudge: "This is incompetence."

I'm not endorsing the government getting involved. I'm just pointing out that the knives are out for Bootyjudge.

A new lawsuit alleges that Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler convinced a woman to give him legal guardianship of her daughter, and then sexually assaulted the underaged girl.

She was apparently 16 at the time. She says she was "powerless to resist" Tyler's seduction. Which is not your classic "assault," but she was underage, so. Capacity to consent is at issue.

Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler is being accused of sexual assault, sexual battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress in a new lawsuit from a woman who claims to have had a relationship with him when she was a teenage girl.
Julia Holcomb is alleging that Tyler convinced Holcomb's mother to grant him guardianship over her when she was 16 years old, which paved the way for a sexual relationship from about 1973 to 1976, according to a Rolling Stone report published Thursday. Tyler, who was born in 1948, would have been in his mid-20s at the time.
Holcomb reportedly doesn't name Tyler in the suit, instead referring to the defendants as Defendant Doe 1 and Does 2 through 50.
The Post has reached out to Tyler's representatives for comment. Tyler, 74, suffered a drug relapse and "voluntarily" checked into rehab in May.
Holcomb alleges in the suit she was "powerless to resist" Tyler's "power, fame, and substantial financial ability," according to news reports.

She reportedly claims Tyler "coerced and persuaded" her into believing they were having a "romantic love affair."
Rolling Stone notes that Tyler's 2011 memoir "Does the Noise in My Head Bother You?" references a relationship with a 16-year-old girl and mentions a Julia Halcomb in the acknowledgments.

The New York Times has a problem with people using the Signal app to avoid surveillance by the government.

The ethical universe, according to Signal, is simple: The privacy of individuals must be respected above all else, come what may. If terrorists or child abusers or other criminals use the app, or one like it, to coordinate activities or share child sexual abuse imagery behind impenetrable closed doors, that's a shame -- but privacy is all that matters.
One should always worry when a person or an organization places one value above all. The moral fabric of our world is complex. It's nuanced. Sensitivity to moral nuance is difficult, but unwavering support of one principle to rule them all is morally dangerous.
The way Signal wields the word "surveillance" reflects its coarsegrained understanding of morality. To the company, surveillance covers everything from a server holding encrypted data that no one looks at to a law enforcement agent reading data after obtaining a warrant to East Germany randomly tapping citizens' phones. One cannot think carefully about the value of privacy -- including its relative importance to other values in particular contexts -- with such a broad brush.
What's more, the company's proposition that if anyone has access to data, then many unauthorized people probably will have access to that data is false. This response reflects a lack of faith in good governance, which is essential to any well-functioning organization or community seeking to keep its members and society at large safe from bad actors.

They take this position, of course, because they know the left owns the government bureaucracy, and will protect their fellow travelers from snooping and leaking.

And they know their fellow leftists will use their power to punish their enemies on the right.

Were the situation reversed, they'd be shrieking.

The "New Science:" A study finds that monkeypox infections in women are similar to those in men.

This is because the "study" included 50% men who claim to be women or "non-binary." It just counted them as women, and then said, wow, look how similar these "women's" infection rates are to men's.

One big difference: Women get lesions around their vaginas, while the "women" in this study got them around their anuses.

A study on monkeypox in women was published in The Lancet recently in which almost half of the cohort being studied were males who identify as women.
...
Around 90% of the cases reported sex with men, and 27% were living with HIV, with 50% of the males who identify as women also being HIV+ compared to just 8% of the actual women.
The study concluded that the "clinical features of monkeypox in women and non-binary individuals were similar to those described in men," and that anatomically, "anogenital lesions were reflective of sexual practices: vulvovaginal lesions predominated in cis women and non-binary individuals and anorectal features predominated in trans women."

Gee I wonder why.

This is The Science.

Don't you trust The Science?!?!?!

Almost half of the "women" in this study were men. Precise language is important in science.

"Females and trans-identified males" would have been accurate in the title. Don't mislead the public with your cryptic, ideological nonsense. https://t.co/ApWDcRMHig pic.twitter.com/AKH46kJ40B

A woman in England stood near an abortion clinic. A cop asked her if she was silently praying. She said she might be. The cop arrested her, because silent prayer is defined as "protest" and you're not allowed to protest an abortion clinic.

Police in the UK arrest a woman for silently praying:

"Are you praying?"

"I might be praying in my head." pic.twitter.com/7Q8UnKmfa1
— Mary Margaret Olohan (@MaryMargOlohan) December 22, 2022

That "context" added by Twitter liberals is a lie. It was only the silent prayer that put her crosswise with the law -- so yes, she was arrested for silently praying.

One reason why I hate the left is because they twist and distort language to deliberately obfuscate and confuse the meaning of words. I find it personally offensive on a deep level, as I am a technical writer, so we tend to seek clarity of meaning as much as possible.

19 My considered opinions on the scant details we supposedly heard today -

1. His wanting to know if anyone else was arrested was likely him hoping they are unsure about him due to having multiple suspects in custody.

2. Unless they are standard questions, his repetitive asks in his "thesis" about the subjects' "thinking and feeling" during commission of crimes sounds like it could be fantasy beatoff material for a sick puppy. May also be a desire to confirm it's not only him who feels the way he does about his own crimes, but not sure on that one.

I mean... if the airlines were doing this out of malice, caprice, or just incompetence it would be one thing but they are suffering from the same staffing issues everyone else is. People are just not dedicated to going back to work and staying there. And if you don't have the staff on an airplane you CANNOT fly.

I'm not gonna buy "powerless to resist" but to the best of my knowledge 16 is the age of consent for the US federally and in most states. Its 18 for "unrestricted" age of consent, so that might be where it took place.

To me 16 is low, but modern girls :/ I am struggling to consider many of them helpless maidens preyed upon by older men. I mean Steven Tyler triggers my gag reflex but I dunno.

The thing is I'm guessing the list of underage girls this dude has played around with looks like a CVS receipt.

Ro Khanna (fucktard name) is a fucktard. There is no reason to issue fines for canceling flights. There are plenty of legitimate reasons for canceling flights, weather, aircraft mechanical issues, lack of crew members, airport issues.

71 Let's put some things in perspective. 1978 doesn't seem or feel all that long ago for many of us here.

But for a 16 year old today, born in 2004, that's 26 years before they were born.

I was born in 1965 (get off my lawn). The equivalent to me would be something that happened in 1939, before the war, back when Cab Calloway was hot and talkies were pretty new. That's the year Hitler invaded Poland and Stagecoach and Mr Smith Goes To Washington came out. It predates swing jazz.

If I was 16 and read that Cab Calloway was accused of dallying with a girl my age I'd shrug and move on, its so ancient.

If terrorists or child abusers or other criminals use the app, or one like it, to coordinate activities or share child sexual abuse imagery behind impenetrable closed doors, that's a shame -- but privacy is all that matters.

171 This is the Schoolhouse Blizzard of 1888:
Pioneers William and Kate Kampen, who lived in a small sod house in Marion, South Dakota territory were caught ill-prepared for such a blizzard. They had run out of coal for their fire, so William was forced to leave for the town of Parker, South Dakota some 23 miles (37 km) away to buy more coal and supplies. He took two of his horses with him. While William was gone, 19-year-old Kate gave birth alone to their first son, Henry Royal Kampen, on January 8, 1888. While in town, the blizzard hit and several of William's friends tried to persuade him to stay in town, but he knew he had to get back home to Kate not knowing she had given birth to their son. The storm was severe and raged on as he tried to make his way back home. He stayed with his horses, but eventually, both of them died because the wind was so strong that both the horses suffocated. William was able to find a barn with pigs in it and so he crawled in with them to try to keep warm. Meanwhile, Kate kept herself and the baby warm by staying in bed. William finally made it back home to Kate and the baby after spending three days and nights out on the prairie alone.

Watched "The Wild Bunch" last weekend after something like 45 years, and was reading about some of the trivia afterward on ImDB. Was kind of disappointed to have read the following:

"Ernest Borgnine once confessed that Emilio Fernández [the actor who played the evil, corrupt Mexican General 'Mapache'] was "a hell of a man". When he went to bars or restaurants, he often brought 14-year-old girls with him, was drunk most of the time and always carried two guns in a belt. His offensive sentences and behavior made his friends very uncomfortable, with good reason--while directing a film in Mexico, Fernandez got into an argument with two of the film's producers, and shot and killed them both."

189 Regarding the Steven Tyler money grab. Starting about ten years ago in concert with the me too movement, the US Equestrian Foundation, that oversees the majority of equestrian competition here in the US and develops and fields US international teams, developed an entity called Safe Sport, patterned after other sports and ramped up after the US gymnastics scandal. Not only did it go after recent sexual predators in the equestrian community but out of the woodwork came accusers of some of the biggest equestrian coaches, trainers, etc, filing complaints of alleged incidents, under age affairs, etc from 60 years ago. These allegations destroyed some of the biggest names simply by having an allegation investigated by a committee who rely mostly on other witness current memories from 60 years ago to enact judgements that include total ban from the sport, and banning of any competitor who continues to train with them. There is virtually no recourse for the accused.

Couldn't you sue for slander? Some board not even involved accuses you of a crime with no proof? Seems that without something from a court of law saying you were guilty, you could have legal recourse due to character assassination.

IMO that should actually be the legal standard. If you are directly involved, its a free speech issue, say what you will.... but if you are NOT involved? What you are repeating IF NOT PROVEN in a COURT OF LAW, is slanderous.
