Good morning, kids. Still under the weather so this will be more or less an open thread. Sorry about that. Hopefully I ca return to normal tomorrow.


  • "The impeachment resolution was passed along party lines, with three Republicans — Reps. Buck (R-CO), McClintock (R-CA), and Gallagher (R-WI) — defecting to join Democrats against the measure. Now that the House has formally impeached Secretary Mayorkas, the Senate will convene to hold a trial and determine if the Biden appointee should be removed from office."

  • ". . . due to its proximity to the Muslim world, it has had centuries of experience with Islam, particularly during the Ottoman Empire. As a result, the ordinary Greek has historically held a more negative view of Islam than the average Western European or American.

    9 IMO the GOP should have started impeachment proceedings on *biden, Harris and the entire cabinet the day the Republicans took over the House.

    McCarthy was a prime reason that didn't happen. But it's exactly what Pelosi did with Trump and his administration.

    Political harassment. Does the GOP even know what it is?

    But the North American Economic Zone (NAEZ) is without a predominant culture. I think that is why few people understood Putin in TC's interview, or for that matter Viktor Orbàn when they talk about their custodianship of government where the population has a definitive culture worth keeping.

    The NAEZ will fall shortly due to the plundering at every level, the crippling of enterprise due to energy rationing and overpriced labor. With a population of Nihilists and Christianity replaced by the American Religion (the I don't care, I'll be raptured when it gets bad enough) there is no will to defend tyrants or live in perpetual slave-state misery. Certainly no honor or character to fix it.

    This immigrant family still has domestic fights, uncivilized children, the "parents" will surely spend lots of time producing an anchor baby, and probably polar opposite ideas on hygiene, fastidiousness and order than their hosts.

    The moment their hosts leave for more than a few hours, the valuables will be stolen and hocked, pantry emptied, and God only knows who the immigrants invite over for unspecified amounts of time - out of compassion.

    60 The idiots who invite the illegals to live in their homes are so incredibly stupid.

    In many non-Western cultures, letting someone into your home is a huge deal - its a social contract that literally conveys the message that our home is your home too.

    They have basically given the immigrants the keys and the title to the home.

    At some point the adult immigrants, when they produce their own anchor baby, will demand the master suite for the sake of better raising their new spawn. They will expect it, and probably will provide threats to get it.

    73 Here in FL, you cannot legally lock a guest out. If the guest cannot access the property all they have to do is call the cops and the cops will force you to let them in and not lock them out in the future. They are not on your side and basically consider you to be an idiot for not knowing the law.

    Cops make a determination on whether the guest is "authentic" if they find any of the guests stuff inside or the guest can describe the interior.

    The one thing that I discovered after buying an $80 or so coffee maker that is designed and rated to hit that specific 195-200 degree brewing mark is that it really does help the flavor of all coffees. I drink white trash Ol' Roy coffee through the week, and it makes a difference with it as well as the Lavazza fancy pants stuff I get out when I'm feeling uppity.

    78 Pelosi used impeachment to great effect. That she had the majority of the GOP on her side likely helped.

    But here's the thing; impeachment is mostly a muckraking tool. You make all sorts of accusations, dredge up the nasty little details about the target's social life, corruption, missteps, etc. It's all about embarrassing them in public, shaming them.

    No amount of "evidence" will get *biden or any of his cabinet members bounced. The GOP will see to that. But they oughta' go through the motions.

    88 Since it's a pseudo-open thread, I had one of those moments of being astounded by a cultural disconnect.

    I was watching a movie review for some bad movie. There was a scene where the main character had to go to Russia to pick up a clue in the mystery. The reviewer commented that the music in the scene was, "an orchestral piece that I assume 'sounds Russian' but sounds a lot like the theme from 'Jaws.'"

    He then played a clip. It was Marche Slave by Tchaikovsky. It's one of the most recognizable and famous compositions in Western civilization. But sure. Just like the theme from "Jaws" that maybe "sounds Russian."

    A simultaneous "LOL" and "Oy Vey!" from me outta that one...

    93 The Dems turned [ Impeachment ] into a political act, corrupting the original intention. Everything the Left touches turns to crap.

    Given that the Senate that heartily approved Mayorkas hasn't materially changed, this impeachment, while sincere by the House, means absolutely nothing to the Senate because the Impeached isn't named "Trump".

    (the usual six suspects in the GOP Senate approved of the "first immigrant" to hold the top position in DHS during the confirmation hearings)

    94 From the "personal chef" article:
    Colin and Jessica Stokes called the state and offered to host migrants in their personal home after the state put out a call for volunteers to take in homeless aliens, saying the local airport was filled to capacity and the state was running out of places to put people. In less than an hour, a Chilean family of four was dropped on their front porch.

    95 Regarding the special election... Santos may have been a creeper who ran a truly shady campaign, but that describes the other 434 Congressmen as well, and he hadn't done anything politically to anger the base.

    The part I found odd is that none of the usual suspects set their hair on fire and started shrieking about 100+ GOP House members "JOINING THE DEMOCRATS!!!" to remove a Republican MoC, in a narrow majority situation, and sacrificing his seat to the Dems in the process.

    Ya know, the same ones who acted as if Matt Gaetz & Co. just gave West Point to the British and then shot Abraham Lincoln for simply removing a widely despised Congressman from his leadership post.

    If I didn't know better, I might think their insistence on Partly loyalty is strictly situational, and hinges on whether the interests of the voters or the corrupt DC superstate happen to be at stake.

Some Texas pol at the state level (probably GOP and sounds like an incumbent) was slamming their (primary) opponent for being in favor of some school voucher bill because (and here’s the unique argument) illegal aliens would be at the “front of the line” to get the $10,000 voucher. So…. Using a politically popular notion (illegals don’t deserve benefits) to bash a good policy (school vouchers)…. Which makes me suspect this incumbent is a Bushie GOPe. One can have both: a secure border and school vouchers with safeguards so they only go to citizens. Why is that hard? But I’m betting that ad is probably effective….

Why Americans all of a sudden crave bacon, or Taylor Swift; it is powerful and helps explain why a mother would castrate her son and sympathize with the MS-13 types invading her neighborhood.

    Those who are not grounded in a transcendent culture or religious tradition will be open to implanted desires.

    LOL. Yeah, you noticed that, too, did you? This was definitely staged and they had everything ready in advance. At least, I hope so.

    If not, that means the government is not only not vetting the aliens (that much is obvious, and we can take it for granted), but also not vetting the "donors." I don't buy the latter for a second. They don't want an incident - like one of the "donors" complaining publicly when his house gets wrecked up or stolen through adverse possession, or for a "donor" to be a serial killer who slaughters a few Aztec families before the cops catch on.

    Besides, there's probably reimbursement involved. We all know that the government won't pay a free citizen money without looking up his ass with a flashlight. An illegal, sure. No problem. But not a real citizen.

    Abandoned? Second homes not leased or otherwise occupied?

    What's the back story on those? I think the story might not be so much about illegals squatting as it about abandoned property and "some" illegals have been found in the empty houses. That they may (or may not) have some sort of claim to the property is debatable, but IMO highly unlikely.

    That story changed my perspective a bit on Brandon. He never had a mental fastball and he’s obviously leaking more velocity…. But I’m thinking he might be a bit more in charge than we’ve suspected. I think there’s some faction near the top that’s loyal to him… other factions aren’t. His lizard brain isn’t sharp but he’s still nasty and cunning. By all accounts it was he who suggested using some ancient law to prosecute/entrap Gen Flynn IIRC…. So he still has some low animal cunning and he’s nasty. He’s not going down voluntarily… no way

    225 Impeachment is one hell of a political football.

    Constitution offers it as the only way to get rid of El Presidentab who is committing crimes (or has). That, or the judge from Podunk, Michigan can issue a warrant for unpaid parking tickets and failure to keep his grass mowed (true or not is irrelevent).

    BUT, donks and repubs have both claimed that Impeachment cannot be done during election season... venn correlation -> 1.0 to those who think Judge Podunk can have El Presidenta arrested and jailed.

    Trump argues the former which protects all Presidents, past, current, and future.
    NeverTrump argues whatever is covenient for the coalition in power and hope will keep them in power.

    My area banned "single use" plastic bags a while back.

    I re-used those single use bags a million ways from trash bags to bringing a change of clothes to the beach etc etc

    So now instead of getting free ones at the store I get useless paper bags there and...I've bought plastic bags to keep using them.

    Its stupid stupid stupid.

    And all this is ultimately because when the left came up with the genius idea of sending plastic bags to China to be recycled China just threw them in the ocean...

    and note how now that they haven't deterred Musk with lawfare, they're going straight for personal public attacks on him. As if anyone on X cares.

    The lesson of this is that once something is declassified, 1000 copies of the material immediately needs to be sent to people/organizations who will in turn each send it to 1000 more. That's the one sure way to make sure that something stays declassified - everyone must know.

    297 The truth of the matter is that Republicans are cowards and incompetent. The election in NY should be a giant clue. Democrats plan to take back Congress. They will do whatever it takes to win. The game is about getting more votes across the finish line and Republicans are still at the starting gate. McDaniel is incompetent just like most of Trump's picks. Now he wants to load up the RNC with his lackey and family. Here comes the next disaster which he will once again wax poetically about the steal and do zero to fix it. In places like NY illegal aliens are already voting in federal elections. The Supreme Court has said it is unconstitutional to ask people if they are citizens and blue states are playing that to the hilt. They won't even give up publicly available voter data. Hello. WTF do you think is happening here.

    I look forward to the GOP losing the House and presidency so they can spend year's fundraising off "the steal" and not fixing anything as illegal aliens run over our country. What a pathetic joke they are.

Psychiatrists experiment on patients with different types of drugs and dosage levels and combinations of drugs like they’re doing a science experiment on a guinea pig….

    They just lost Santos' seat to a Democrat. (this is why they rushed this vote)

    History will record this action against an honorable man as the death throes of the criminal thug politicians who orchestrated the charade.

    The House GOP are fully vested agents of a foreign power, doing the bidding of a foreign dictator, and acting against Constitution and the best interests of the American People. Their leaders should be arrested for treason and espionage, and tried accordingly. Fact.

    Tall women, and I can't use the term 'young woman' in her case, tend to be a little more desperate. The pond of men taller then her is not stocked as well as it is for shorter women.

    If she ever wants to be a mother she better salt away some eggs, though they're already closing in on their 'use by' date.

    Certain things are becoming increasingly obvious:

    1. The CIA installed the current Ukrainian regime in 2014.
    2. Russia and Ukraine are both ruled by corrupt, fascist oligarchies. Neither is noble or worthy of American blood and treasure.
    3. The divisions and grievances between Russia and Ukraine go back thousands of years.
    4. Ukraine is the money-laundering capitol of the Western world.
    5. The Bidens, the Clintons and numerous other powerful Western families have curious connections to Ukrainian businesses and oligarchs.
    6. America has no vital national interest in the Russia-Ukraine War.
    7. Despite #6, American politicians (at the behest of powerful business interests and international organizations like the WEF) are committing billions of the US taxpayers' dollars to the Ukrainian government, with almost no accountability, and we are on a path of escalation into which American troops will inevitably be drawn.
    8. Most Americans want nothing to do with the Ukraine War.

    9. The outsider Trump was impeached for looking into Ukrainian corruption and now an unprecedented (in US history) banana republic fascist lawfare campaign is underway against him to try and make sure he never again holds office (and can never again investigate US corruption in Ukraine).

    When you add up these facts, the only logical conclusion that can be drawn is that Zelensky and the Ukrainian oligarchs are blackmailing the powerful families of Western governance with information about their money-laundering activities, and will publicly release such information unless they get what they want.

    When only one conclusion makes sense, that conclusion--no matter how distasteful or contrary to conventional wisdom it may be--is probably the truth."

    409 Velveting starts with making a slurry: For 1 pound thinly sliced meat or alternative protein (it can be anything really: chicken, pork, beef, shrimp, tofu, or even mushrooms), combine 1 Tbsp. cornstarch, 1 Tbsp. soy sauce, and 1 Tbsp. vegetable or light sesame oil. I like to add sliced onions or garlic as well, which gives the alliums additional time to soak up the oil and salt. Mix everything well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to one hour to allow time for the cornstarch to transform into a thin gelatinous layer. To give your velveted meat an even thicker coating of sauce, add an egg white to the slurry. Increase the cornstarch and you’ll end up with something thicker and more substantive, maybe a slurry better-suited to a stew or soup, like the Chinese Filipino misua I grew up with.

    419 Most hollywood women aren't mothers. They pay some nanny to raise their kids and have nothing or very little to do with their actual motherly duties.

    I ended up a on a mailing list for working mothers in my very blue area.

    The endless topic of discussion was how to make sure they didn't get in trouble for paying their "undocumented" nanny under the table. Also a fair number of complaints of native born Americans applying for nanny jobs and wanting too much money.

    Note when I looked up the same people on Next Door or Facebook they all demanded a "living wage"

    They protect criminals by withholding even the most basic information, which we all now know means that there's likely something there that is inconvenient.

    Like, shut up and accept this as the new normal, just focus on granpa Eloi and discard that nagging feeling that we have growing Morlock criminal class that no government or institution wants recognize or stop. Hey, how 'bout Taylor and Kelce, aren't they sweet. . .?!!

    Once drug companies were finally permitted to advertise in the media, that's when all this nonsense began. There was a time when drug companies AND lawyers were not permitted to advertise on TV, radio, or in print. Lawyers could only place their ads in the Yellow Pages under "Attorneys At Law". The dam broke when the law was changed.
