Day two of digging a stump out of my lovely wife's purported flower bed.
I have dug stumps before but I have to admit, this Magnolia bastid is the worst one I have ever encountered. 15 inches across and can't bring a stump grinder in - buried electrical supply cable buried too damn close.

1. Supreme Court TdA 7-2 ruling. The only out ito quickly deport these fuckers is to use some other "lawful means".
2 Karen Read trial. Incredibly biased Judge Bev is allowing changed, new, Commonwealth expert reports sent to the defense May 8 but received by them May 11th, three weeks into the actual trial. The changes shift the CW bullshit timeline midstream, changing their theory of the case. The defense has already cross examined witnesses, calling into question CW claims. Judge Bev allows the CW to modify whatever it wants, but locked the defense's experts (ARCCA) to their original testimony from the first trial.
In spite of this, KR will be acquitted, or the jury will be hung. There were at least three jurors openly derisive towards the prosecution. One reporter described one jurir as having "resting smirk face".

If you add charcoal and sulfur to the saltpeter, and then tamp it under the stump, it will come out MUCH faster!

I don't know if Tannerite is sold here in Canada, but if I wanted to blow up a stump at my AZ place, I would drill a hole into it, pack the hole with Tannerite, and use a soldering iron to set off some percussion caps embedded in the Tannerite. Put it on a long extension cord, and plug in from far away. And wait for the kaboom.

Nah. They're coarse, but the depth is very controllable, unless you're using one of those had-held type thing that beat the hell out of you.

That's up 70.1% from $67,000 just six years ago, per Realtor com

Hyperflation
More demand as more immigrants are brought in
Less supply as environmental and labor laws reduce the ability to add more houses.

And I will complain why the hell is she allowed to practice.
And I will start taking this up with her dental office.

In a normal market, it's a useful measure.
In a really skewed market, it's a way to lie with statistics.
If there are 101 homes for sale in the City of Townsville, and 51 are burnt-out foreclosures selling for $1, and the other 50 are palatial mansions selling for $50 million, then the average price is about $25 million, but the median price is only $1.

" Eight miles away and six feet down" "86 is military and police code for murder"
Jeez, are these people nuts? All anyone has to do is do a web search for "police codes" . 86 shows up nowhere.
Anybody who has spent any time sitting on a barstool knows what "86" means. It means thrown out and banned from ever returning. So, Comey wants Trump thrown out. Surprise.
I voted for T three times, but making up stuff like this makes me ashamed to be associated with the side that pulls shit like this. The left blatantly lies for political advantage.We shouldn't .

1. Peace talks in Istanbul. Ukraine demanded the usual immediate 30 day ceasefire. Russia countered with a demand for territory that they haven't taken yet. They did agree to keep talking and to have a big POW swap.
2. The Russians appear to have a fair sized foothold across the river in the south by Kherson. It will be a very big deal if the Ukrainians can't muster the resources to push them back.
3. The Russians have a new top general, who previously oversaw some of most successful campaigns in the southeast sector.

However, many Lefties are using it in posts, and in context it is clearly meant as a call to assassinate Trump.
If someone says that Trump should be "ventilated", do you think that means they want to attach some duct work and a fan to Trump?

The only ways for third parties to "throw the bum out" are assassination or impeachment.
Impeachment takes half the house and 2/3 of the Senate. Anyone think that's in the cards right now? Bueller?
So, it's a call for assassination.

But it could be taken to mean that by some retarded Leftoid. We had plenty of references to organized crime using the term "86" to mean "get rid of, permanently".
If Comey wants Trump removed legally, his only recourse is "impeach 47".

I don't think Comey's post rises to the level of a true threat.
Trump's quote on Jan. 6th, "We fight like hell. And if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore." is likewise clearly not a true threat or incitement.

Speaking of the weather, it was a bit oppressive this afternoon. The weather chicken entrail readers said this would likely be the hottest day of the year so far. For me, it topped out at 86.4F. The hottest day turned out to be April 5th, at 86.7F. Some neighbors were about the same, April 5th being the hottest.
The dew point however, hit 76F, and that made it
muggy, with the "real feel" of 95F, which was indeed the highest of the year to date.
And, being the whimpy thing I am, I've had the A/C on for a while now.

It was some sort of spot local forecast thing, I forget exactly, but he was looking forward to doing it for us right here locally. IIRC, it had to do with modifying the "wide forecast" based on all the forecast data, to the local station. It would allow one to predict daily highs and lows relative to the larger forecast. He had developed that particular method, and was interested in seeing how well it performed here.
Only thing the station doesn't have is cloud cover data, but he was going to calculate that based on the solar radiation data.

He can't afford to fix all the problems, but we "put out the fires" and got him back on the road, to seek other arrangements.
Lucky me! Hubby said BIL was angling to camp out at our place (indefinitely) for some expense-free living, like he's done to hubby/XW in the past.
When I told hubs that BIL was gone after 2.5 days, he said: "Wow! Good job!"

And I got one of my air compressors back online today. Cheap Chicom belt stretched and slipped and had to get a new one. I got a bit wistful about that. Daddy would've been proud of me. He bought that compressor in the mid-70s. I was just a little kid.
Now, it's basically just the pressure tank original, I replaced the motor and the pump itself back in the mid-2000s. The new pump and motor are probably a little less than 20 years old. The old pump lasted about 30 years.
Second compressor, which I run together, is the same model, probably around the laste '70s. A neighbor, long since departed gave it to me back in the late '90s. And I've kept them both running all this time. Daddy taught me well.

Golden retriever puppy growing up. German-engineered technique (of course) allows roads to clear tons of rain water, letting the water drip down to under-road pipes. Dog was fascinated by seeing a dog on a trampoline on TV, so its owners bought it one. I know a lot of these "bush-build" videos are fake in the sense that they have a pickup truck with a generator and lots of power tools just off-screen, but this is neat. Seal has massive crush on a diver. The bestest fetch-dog in the world. ICYMI: Camel just wants to make friends with horses, who are skeptical because he's so weird-looking. Big snake. So it's an AI "Cheapfake," as Cheapfake Tapper would call it. But it's a visualization of a legend about a giant snake, that legend also being pure bullshit. But this post nevertheless illustrates an important point about... something. The Pete "Maverick" Mitchell of drone operators. Sea otter (?) pops up in a vent in the ice. Dogs that talk the talk but can't walk the walk. Huskies start their Drama Classes early. Summer's coming. Dog enjoys the water slide. Goofus and Gallant. Spare a thruppence for film with added color and ambient sound of Victorian London in 1901, guv'nor?
That’s why they are best friends ❤️

Y'know, if it weren't for the café, we could start the ONT a lot earlier, at least on weekdays.
And without that Aussie's incomprehensible anime Tech thread, the ONT could run longer.
And if we folded the gardening thread and the pet thread and food thread together…
Oh, never mind on all of that. Wouldn't be prudent to mess with the Ordained Order of things.
But, now, if we eliminated the ONTs altogether…

What happens if water freezes in the porous road structure? Does it crack the whole thing apart?
And, does the porosity make it clog with particles eventually?
Also, there is a increasing problem with streams and rivers flooding in regions where a lot of pavement has been laid down. Dropping the water into pipes doesn't fix that. It was already going to pipes.

>>That what you get when you think and aren’t used to it.
Tilitoson-Pearson was once one of the largest builders of recreational sailboats in the US both under the Pearson name and for other brands like J Boats. They were located up in Warren RI. Then came the luxury tax and the advent of green energy and the company changed their name to TPI and their focus toward build wind turbines and moved to Arizona.
And now they are going to go broke again thanks to more idiotic leftist policies. Too bad, they used to build some pretty nice sailboats.

They've been making boats around here out of carbon fiber for years. Virtually every high tech racing sailboat is carbon fiber and not just the hull but pieces like steering wheels and rudders and lots of other bits and pieces.
Cutting it isn't the hard part. Removing the resins and other fibers and then reshaping it has not be solved yet. It's amazingly strong, in one direction anyway, but also brittle and not easy to repurpose cheaply.
Lots of people are trying to find the solution but so far nothing that makes market sense.

They say granite makes it stronger, but I am betting they are only talking about abrasion and not load. The granite will have the same problem as all porous surfaces with the reduced bonding area between the grains of aggregate making them both weak, and non-robust. That is, when they start to crack they just fall apart.
We need to go back to cobblestones -- Roman tech was peak roadbuilding.

You can't "unbuild" a fiberglass or carbon-fiber layup. Once the resin has cured, it cannot be remelted or dissolved. But it will burn, and burn very well indeed. All that needs to be be done is to break it into pieces small enough to blend with the coal feed going into a power plant. Might also work to fuel a cement kiln; not sure about that, but might be worth a try.

This is obviously because there is no market for used glass fiber waste, nor resin waste. In fact, both become hazardous waste once de-constituted.
The highest form of recycling would be to chop them up into little pieces and burn them.
Reuse is still an option -- maybe survival floats for the politicians that mandated and subsidized the damn things when we throw the commies out of the helicopters.

I glossed over this in my comment above.
Burning. this is a poor option because the glass chews up chopper blades, and then mostly just makes ash when burned. You end up paying for a bit of fuel 3 times over. No sane powerplant would want that crap. Bury it. Or better yet, don't make it.

Boat building has been a thing in Rhode Island since the colonies. Some of the most well known sailboat builders in the country built them here. And then Democrats decided that we needed a luxury tax to punish rich people forgetting who built those boats. It devastated the boat building industry here and sent some builders who survived to places like Taiwan where the tax didn't apply.
John Kerry, who voted for the idiotic tax, had $4 million dollar sailboat build in New Zealand to avoid the tax. Because he's a leftist scumbag who is not just stupid but doesn't give a shit about what his policies do. Also, scumbag. That can't be emphasized enough.

The very worst part is that in the GND and previous, the tax credits were for 10 years after being built or "renovated." So the windfarms have been replacing turbines and blades that are only 10 years old, even though they should last 25 years or more depending on design and use. The tax credits are worth more than they cost so we are just paying them to make scrap at this point.

They do last, but the tax credits are renewed if you replace them every 10 years.
They last longer, but not really since the manufacturers understand this so why bother? 20 to 25 years used to be the standard, but much longer than that gets hard just due to stress cycles, etc.

Turbines spin. When heat goes out, they still spin - that's inertia. This offers a little bit of time before the workers can turn the heat back on (preferably without blowing everything up like at Pripyat but that's another story).
When the wind no blow, and the windmill stops - that's all the inertia you get. The electricity turns off IMMEDIATELY.

One of my favorite place on the planet is Block Island.
Don't go there. You will hate it. Seriously, horrible place. o somewhere else.
The island used to get virtually all power from an undersea cable from the mainland and had some of the highest electricity rates of anywhere in the US. A few years ago they put up a few turbines east of the island right in the middle of some prime fishing and sailing ground and it did bring down the rates a bit at the expense of fishing, sailing and beautiful views. Bad trade. And that's one of the instances where someone can even attempt an economic case.

I've seen this in other projects. Someone gets a grant to build some new fancy gizmo or renovate a space, but they almost NEVER EVER include a long-term maintenance/support plan. After a few years, the new toy is broken and there is no money to fix it.
Rinse and repeat with the next bright and shiny object.

Almost as if - go with me here just for a second - these things are completely artificial creations of government activity and distortion?
And of course they meet none of the criteria of an actual "public good" (a key distinction that's apparently some kind of classified thing, as not even "skeptics" of guvamint boondoggles seem to use it or understand it). So histrionic government manipulation and subsidy have no defense of any kind.

@typeclonghouse "DEI until they come for my son's AP classes" Democrat
Rorrer, a Democratic candidate for Virginia's House of Delegates in the 47th district, revealed Saturday on social media that she is married and ethically nonmonogamous, meaning she and her husband consensually date other couples together. "In politics, people love to dig up the unexpected and spin it into a spectacle," the 47-year-old wrote on social media. "I don't do shame, and I sure won't give anyone else the opportunity to tell my story." Rorrer told HuffPost on Tuesday that while no one was threatening to out her, she believes word of her lifestyle would have gotten out of her inner circle in Stuart, Virginia, her hometown with a population of just over 1,000.A professor was arrested by Yale police for a "racist" statement she never made.
I never thought I'd end up in handcuffs and a jail cell for something I didn't say. But last May, police in New Haven, Conn., arrested me -- because a parking attendant falsely claimed I had used a racial slur against him nearly a year earlier. I denied it. I asked the cops to check the parking lot's surveillance video. They didn't -- and the state charged me first with disorderly conduct, then with three counts of breach of peace in the second degree. It took almost a year, tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees and endless stress before the nightmare ended on March 27, when the prosecutor finally dropped all charges. Why? "Insufficient evidence," "inconsistencies," "credibility issues," video that "clearly contradicted" the accuser's claims -- and a possibility that I wasn't even the right person. The judge dismissed the case. If this can happen to me -- a First Amendment advocate with resources, legal counsel and a public reputation to defend -- it can happen to anyone. In 2011, while still a student at Yale University, I founded the Buckley Institute, named for conservative hero William F. Buckley, Jr. Our mission is to promote intellectual diversity and freedom of speech at Yale. For the past decade, we've hosted an annual Disinvitation Dinner featuring speakers who have been disinvited from and disrupted on college campuses. And now here I was, facing not merely an attempt at cancellation, but actual criminal charges that could mean prison if I was convicted. It did not exactly feel like a coincidence. The interest in my case seemed to have more to do with what the Buckley Institute represents than anything I ever did, or was accused of doing. ... They made the malicious assumption that those who defend free speech do so to say offensive things. The case was a farce from the start: There were no threats, no violence -- just a made-up accusation, rubber-stamped by a system that didn't bother to check basic facts before putting someone's life through a meat grinder. When the state finally obtained the video footage I had asked the police to view before arresting me -- footage that had been accessible all along -- it showed me, on multiple dates, calmly parking, getting out of my car and walking away. No confrontation, not even any interaction, with the accuser. No slurs. No drama. Yet for nearly a year, I lived under a cloud of suspicion. My experience should terrify anyone who values free speech and due process. ... This wasn't about justice. It was about ideology run amok. When the woke campus mindset infects the criminal-justice system, fairness takes a back seat to political influence and pressure. The parking attendant's attorney suggested as much when he objected to the prosecutor's decision to drop the case by bemoaning "the caste system in this country" in court. The real systemic problem? It's not bias. It's cowardice. It's a criminal-justice system that rushes to judgment, punishes the innocent and works on a sluggish timeline to correct its own mistakes, regardless of the cost to the accused. If this is what free speech in America now looks like, we're all in more trouble than we realize.
It doesn't matter if you commit the offenses the left imagines you committed, because if they even imagined you did it, you crossed the line. The very fact that they can imagine you doing something means that there's some vibe you're giving off that much be punished and purged until you denounce your vibes. A district judge in California of all places has ruled that schools must provide parents an opt-out for gender indoctrination. Fox 5 San Diego reported:
Carlos and Jenny Encinas have two boys who attended La Costa Heights Elementary school in the Encinitas Union School District in the Southern District of California. In May 2024, their fifth-grader's teacher read his class the book, My Shadow is Pink, which urges children to question their own gender identity. Following the reading, their son was forced to watch a read-aloud video of the book with his kindergartener "buddy" as part of the school's mentoring program. He was then required to participate in an activity where he drew the kindergartener's shadow, using the color that "represents" him. Featuring a boy who sees his shadow as pink instead of blue, My Shadow is Pink promotes the idea that children can change their own gender, encouraging kids to find the color of their shadow described as "your inner-most you." The story displays the boy learning to cope with being true to his inner self, starting when he decides to wear a dress on his first day of school. His dad, originally full of "anxiety and stress" about the issue, changes his mind and puts on a dress too. He encourages his son to wear a dress to school, and if anyone doesn't like it, then "they are the fool." The Encinas' fifth-grade son, a strong Christian, was very uncomfortable with being used as a mouthpiece for views contrary to his beliefs. Carlos approached the school with two requests: notification when sensitive topics would be read in school and an allowance for his children to opt-out of participation. Unfortunately, both requests were denied.The judge issued an injunction ordering the school to provide parental notification and opt-outs for concerned children. But this is only a temporary injunction; no idea if the shithole state of California will respect it. See the article for the whole story. Our genius media:
He started off the list with the phrases "communities of color" and "people of color." He said that in Democrats' zeal to prove how not racist they are, these phrases actually are a bit racist because they imply that all minorities are identical and not unique. But if Democrats stop using these phrases, will they then have to concede that not all minorities think alike? A tall order indeed. Next on the list was the phrase "generational change." Carville asked, "Why do you want to limit the appeal of your message to younger people? ..." Plenty of Americans of all ages want some drastic change. Next on the verboten list was the word "structural." Carville stated the obvious: "We're not going to attack the structural issues in the world right now." I would add two things: one, it sounds pretty elitist, and two, what are structural issues anyway? The next one should definitely be on the chopping block: the word "equity." Again, an elitist-sounding word. What Joe Sixpack kind of guy rambles on about equity? Carville again laid a truth on Democrats, saying, "People basically don't know what it means, and if they do know what it means, it looks like you tried to force an outcome."Other words Democrats need to stop saying: "community" and "oligarchy." See the link for that.

You used to be able to buy concentrated nicotine for killing weeds. We sold it at my father's feed store in the 80's. Occasionally before it was banned, you would hear of someone poisoning their significant other with concentrated nicotine.
So, yeah, it probably kills bacteria and viruses too.

Hate to tell you but there was a scandal years ago as some like 23andme and another big testing DNA company put in small amounts of random race and ethnicity percentages in the report. They claimed on camera that they did it in order to make people less racist or to mess with certain people submitting their dna for analysis.
Then basically all except a handful that are quite expensive sell their DNA results to any willing buyer. People who have their DNA results at a firm going bankrupt (23andme mebbe) are panicking now that their data may be sold on the open market with no safeguards.

Also, DNA does not work like that. In most cases they can just indicate some probability that a person is from a certain region. It is more accurate for populations where we have a lot of data (Europe) but not so good on the fringes and when it says "5% from region x", that only means that *most* people with that genetic signature come from region x, but not all.
And, as you said they bent the numbers to make clients think they were all part black or part something else just to fuck with them.

- Responding cop finds him reeking of alcohol, red+watery eyes, guy flunks the eye test to follow the pen.
- Guy ambulanced to hospital where his blood registers .371 at 2:22 pm
- Four MEN on the jury could not get to "Guilty." (The other girl and I were the only ones to go all-in on all four charges.)
I got some insights on what's wrong with men. They simply think they're so damn smart, they're smarter than the case itself. I (and a few sane males) could not get them to stop speculating and spinning up a case that the defense itself never made.

.371. I don't know how he remembered to breathe at that level.
2) I think at least one of them was the patriotic kind of immigrant who loves America because he really knew what a shithole country he came from -- he kept taking pictures of the American flag with an airplane (we were on the 22nd floor and had a view). Another was a similarly crazy over-thinker and the 2 others were non-thinkers.
3) The rejection was pure "It's all hypotheticals!!!! How do we know he weighed 170 pounds at the time? Maybe he weighed less and the alcohol had an effect on him" blah blah. "We can't tolerate a .03% chance that he's innocent!" I could go on, but I have to leave the house. I'll probably be back for the ONT and I can tell more about the defendant's insane story -- which, I hear, is the latest life hack for drunk drivers. Stay tuned!

However, I have to disagree that it's wrong for jurors to draw their own conclusions.
Jurors are supposed to be sure that the defendant is guilty beyond reasonable doubt.
Nothing says that doubt has to come from the defense attorney.
The attorneys may see it as a game, but the jurors are supposed to carry out justice.
No one shouldd go to prison just because his public defender is a fuckup.
Now in this case it sounds like the guy was absolutely guilty, but it sounds to me like your fellow jurors were attempting to raise reasonable doubt. They obviously didn't convince you, but that doesn't make what they did wrong.

I think the Lost Boys were on to something. When we grow up we forget how we were as kids. At age 6 I spent the summer at the Country Club pool pretending my parents had kidnapped me from the sea and that I was really a Dolphin. And the lines between reality and imagination were still being chalked. Wonder why I didn't get a scuba fin grafted onto my back? Oh I know why - BECAUSE I WAS A KID AND NOT ALLOWED TO MAKE LIFE ALTERING CHOICES oh yeah

Many years ago I knew a Catholic couple that had about 5 or 6 kids.
The wife (reportedly) absolutely refused to use any kind of birth control, and also refused to perform any...alternative activities, so she cut him off entirely.
However, she told him that if he chose to commit adultery, she would forgive him.
That seemed quite bizarre to me, but it seemed to work for them.

I do notice their is a big push for this now though - I see videos of "happy polygamous" groups all over over social media.
They take two formats
A) One big'un with a bunch of soibois living with her and they all look miserable
B) One guy with two decent looking women. I've noticed I see these same people acting in other skits so, and I know this might be a shock, but these videos might not be real.

This phrase is composed of two parts:
הַלְּלוּ (hallelu): This is the second-person masculine plural imperative form of the Hebrew verb hillel (הִלֵּל
, which means "to praise" or "to joyously praise in song." So, "hallelu" translates to "praise ye!" or "you all praise!"
יָהּ (Yah): This is a shortened form of the Hebrew name for God, YHWH (often translated as Yahweh or Jehovah).
Therefore, the derivation of "Hallelujah" is a command or an exhortation: "Praise ye Yah!" or "Praise the Lord!"
The term is used extensively in Jewish Hallel prayers and has been adopted into Christian liturgy and worship as an expression of praise and gratitude to God. The Greek transliteration, ἀλληλούϊα (allēlouia), found in the Septuagint and the New Testament (notably in the Book of Revelation), is the basis for the Latin form "Alleluia," which is also widely used in Christian traditions.

Left-Wing Supreme Court Rules 7-2 That Trump Cannot Deport Terrorist Illegal Aliens Without a Cumbersome Lengthy Trial
By what right are they here? They have zero legal right to be here, but the soon-to-be-ignored-and-chastened Supreme Court says we have to have trials to deport people who are illegal aliens with no right to even be present.
Roberts and all of Trump's liberal-leaning, Federalist-Society-certified saboteurs voted with the liberal bloc. When Republican AGs sued Biden over his illegal policy of ignoring the law and dissolving the border, the Supreme Court tossed out their lawsuit, ruling that the President had plenary power to conduct the foreign policy of the country (of which immigration enforcement is a part) and therefore the courts had no power to restrain him. Now that Trump is deporting these Undocumented Americans, the Court reverses itself and says "You bet the courts have power to overrule the President in his conduct of foreign policy." Disgusting -- and destabilizing.The Supreme Court just betrayed Trump on deporting illegal aliens who are gang members under the Alien Enemies Act.

The Supreme Court has been captured by liberal activists. This is a disgrace! pic.twitter.com/XA7g9EK2QU
Here's your notice: Get the fuck out. I don't usually think it's good for the president to just say "Enough of this shit" and flat-out ignore all Supreme Court rulings, but this ruling makes that a legitimate option. "The Supreme Court has made its ruling, now let them enforce it." -- Andrew Jackson Whoops, I wrote "William Jackson." I'm the sharpest, best version of Ace in history.
@BreannaMorello The Supreme Court says the Trump administration needs to give violent illegal aliens "notice" before deporting them.

1. Push Trump to ignore some court ruling. Courts are immune from prosecution or consequences, so it does not matter how absurd and they will escalate until he ignores the courts.
2. Impeach.
So expect more courts to get more absurd; it is not about the law, but about their strategy and they will cut down every law in the land if need be as they think they have a higher goal.

Has nothing to do with ordinary deportations. Tren gang members were being deported under the Alien Enemies Act. (And nothing under this decision prevents the administration from doing just that).
I halfway suspect this is kabuki theater by the Trump administration to get the court to concentrate on the thumb (AEA) and get knocked out by the punch (ordinary deportation measures).
This order makes Scotus look bad to the population as supporters of the right for illegal gang members to stay here. 70-30 to 80-20 against issue.

More fun to light hair on fire for some I guess. Alito's dissent was properly snarky for what the court did here and he pointed out how the court is ignoring its own procedures and rules in order to keep these gang members in the US.
Kavanaugh's concurrence was at least constructive in that he claimed that Scotus should go ahead and give a substantive decision rather than the fan dance with the 5th. Roberts is probably trying to stall past the recess in this rather stupid and uninspiring per curiam opinion.
Dollars to donuts that Robert's staff wrote the opinion.

I'm inclined to agree with you.
However, "minimal due process" in the Midnight Order has become "entitled to the full suite of due process rights the same as a citizen" at the trial courts.
So, it doesn't really matter all that much what the order actually say, only that it has given the radical Judge-Kings enough room to issue more and further illegal orders.
Posted by: People's Hippo Voice at May 16, 2025 05:39 PM (M1WSs)
There was some mention the other day about 21 days notice, enough time for them to get counsel, and prove they are citizens, or legally here, I guess.
So how many of them will do that, and how many will run to another state? idk, but then they can be rounded up (if found) and directly deported ... I guess.

While decades over-due, odds still seem very much against this.
Trump is gloriously comfortable (giddy, even) breaking many incredibly stupid threadbare "norms", to the world's benefit.
But one of the most pernicious and ridiculous ones - the selective, utterly political and lawless, and self-dealing worship of the judiciary by the legal cult - still has an iron grip. The US federal judiciary probably needs to have its power reduced by 75% - and this has been true for decades.

Leftists slowly erode confidence in every institution they occupy. Which in some cases is part of the plan. But this muddling by SCOTUS and deliberate subversion of rights by justices like ACB is really alarming. It appears they see their task as limiting The Bill of Rights and placing limits on liberty. I think at some point the citizens feel the republic slipping into a soft tyranny, put in place by courts who have grossly and grotesquely overstepped their bounds. They are ultimately fulfilling all the predictions of people like the anti Federalists.

While out on a Friday night in the 80's we went to Pier 66 in from Penrods on the Beach in Ft. Laud to check out Trumps massive yacht Princess. Trump purchesed the Princess formerly:
The yacht was built in 1980 for Saudi arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi, then called the Nabila after his daughter. During that time it was used as a setting for the James Bond film Never Say Never Again. When Khashoggi's business empire began to crumble the yacht was repossessed as part of a loan default in 87 and was then bought by Trump for a "cheap" $30 million, renaming it The Princess. For Trump the boat was a show of lavishness, personally he doesn't even like boats, he just wanted a new toy to show how rich he was. He didn't have it long though, he sold the boat in 91 to try and stave off bankruptcy, selling it to Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal for $20 million who renamed it the Kingdom 5KR. As far as I know Al-Waleed still has it.

Willing to abuse and stretch the law with abandon.
Willing to assert jurisdiction over EVERY case against Trump; the instant they are filed "I order this transferred to my court."
(I mean, ffs, if a judge in MA can assert jurisdiction over someone detained in TX?)
Within 5 minutes of this order, he'd issue a nationwide injunction that "sufficient notice" is whatever the President decides.
And over-rule every single appeal court and the Supreme Court with a simple order: "The decision rendered above has no merit, no basis, and no authority--the President is not required to follow it."

Since Congress COULD reign in the power of the Courts, but refuses to, we now see the outcome.

Or, does it have to be something like:

I think he lured Scotus into a trap of their own making. And Roberts is too stupid to realize it because he values process over substance. Kavanaugh in his concurrence was warning Roberts about that ironically. He wanted immediate grant of cert and resolving the issue this term rather than waiting on the 5th Circuit and the plaintiffs inevitably seeking a new writ.
And that simply means that the Tren members sit longer in detainment and cannot commit much in the way of new crimes until this is resolved. Already less murders in Aurora and Denver as a result.

Two separate situations. The Tren gang members were swept up off the street by immigration officers and detained before being deported.
The application of the AEA to their cases meant that Trump could (under past case law and the statute itself) deport them without a hearing. Scotus said not so fast in April and renewed this injunction until the 5th rules upon how much notice and due process the party should get and whether the plaintiffs met the necessary conditions for a TRO. Then the Scotus court may reconsider the whole thing if the plaintiffs or government asks for a writ of cert.
That is why Kavanaugh said, why not go ahead and resolve the issue now before recess instead of sending it back to the 5th.

Which is absolutely forbidden.
The assertion that they have no remedy if they are deported is flat-out false and there is no record of facts below to support it.
1) there has been no final ruling in the Maryland Man case, so it is improper for ANY court to rely on any facts from that case.
2) there are no facts that are before any court that anyone wrongfully deported has no remedy--that is an allegation, an assumption, a bare assertion by the plaintiffs--but it has not been given a final ruling or finding of fact.

Not new defaults.
Just the end of a reporting freeze.
Now we see the damage in the latest quarterly report - and it’s not just student debt.
-Mortgage delinquencies jumped from 0.92% to 1.22%
-HELOC delinquencies rose from 0.52% to 0.88%
-Credit card delinquencies hit 7.04% (up from 6.86%)
-Auto loans? 2.94%, up from 2.78%
Balances fell, but people still couldn’t pay.
And while all that happened…

There is nothing stopping Trump from detaining every illegal alien in the country, except for the lack of jail space and the cost. Use the low cost alternative in the desert and make it so uncomfortable (but still humane) that the illegals will line up for their ticket home.

State and Local gov Debt? $3.4 Trillion
Fed Gov debt $36.8 Trillion.
So while Civilian debt, which can somewhat be controlled through interest rates, are at $32 Trillion...
Gov Debt, which is controlled by Politics, is over $40 Trillion...
Meaning the Fed Res board has very little control over inflation... except making it worse by raising interest rates on Gov Debt.

Speak for yourself. No, that's wrong I do not want them deported either.
I do want them taxed commensurate with the amount of salary reduction to Americans that they create, and additionally the amount of burden they create on our schools, social services, etc.
(two groups, skilled workers and non-working. non-skilled workers fall into both categories.) If it comes up negative (and it often will) then I want them deported too.

Start suing the judges in the appeal courts for a writ of mandamus.
On every single deportation.
I think these appeal court rules require them to take mandamus and require them to give them priority.
Make them fucking choke on their rules.

such a manner as will allow them to actually seek habeas relief ” before removal
. . .
The Government has represented elsewhere that it
is unable to provide for the return of an individual deported in error to a prison in El Salvador, see Abrego Garcia v. Noem, No. 25−cv−951 (D Md.), ECF Docs. 74, 77, where it is alleged that detainees face indefinite detention, see Application for Injunction 11. The detainees’ interests at stake are accordingly particularly weighty. Under these circumstances, notice roughly 24 hours before removal, de-
void of information about how to exercise due process rights to contest that removal, surely does not pass muster. But it is not optimal for this Court, far removed from the circumstances on the ground, to determine in the first instance the precise process necessary to satisfy the Constitution in this case. We remand the case to the Fifth Circuit for that purpose.

State and Local gov Debt? $3.4 Trillion
Fed Gov debt $36.8 Trillion.
So while Civilian debt, which can somewhat be controlled through interest rates, are at $32 Trillion...
Gov Debt, which is controlled by Politics, is over $40 Trillion...
Meaning the Fed Res board has very little control over inflation... except making it worse by raising interest rates on Gov Debt.

And there is an easy way out of this mess the courts made. Arrest them and give them notice they are going to be deported. Assign an administrative immigration judge to their case for a hearing and have that judge order them deported. Nothing in any ruling in this case says they are entitled to a full blown trial to prove they are or are not a gang member. All it says is they are entitled to "due process".

To be clear, we decide today only that the detainees are entitled to more notice than was given on April 18, and we grant temporary injunctive relief to preserve our jurisdiction while the question of what notice is due is adjudicated. See post, at 13 (ALITO, J., dissenting).
We did not on April 19—and do not now—address the underlying merits of the
parties’ claims regarding the legality of removals under the
AEA. We recognize the significance of the Government’s
national security interests as well as the necessity that
such interests be pursued in a manner consistent with the
Constitution. In light of the foregoing, lower courts should
address AEA cases expeditiously.
[Sharkman here again]:
So, they get more than 24 hour notice, and a chance to file a Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus, which is what every illegal already gets.
And Our Black-Robed Usurper Masters did recognize that Trump has a strong interest in getting these things done quickly.
Calm down, everyone.

Correct. I said it poorly because people are conflating today's AEA decision with general immigration law. People who do not show up to their deportation hearing get a default deportation order as the due process part of deportation is satisfied. There are some last ditch sort of quasi appeals before shoved over the border like if you showed up late, there was some mistake in mailing the order, lawyer mistakes, etc.
Recently Scotus added an additional stupid qualification in deportation cases regarding business days and required these orders be tolled (counted) subtracting weekends and holidays which is pointless and stupid.
The majority doing this shit for illegals when they ignored American citizens in Jan 6 being denied speedy trials, confrontation of witnesses, discovery, etc. need to be removed from office along with their DC lower court butt buddies. The whole circuit, like Roberts, is a rancid POS mess.

You really think that's by accident?
For meritorious board evals, when asked what's your greatest weapon, the eyerolling stepford reply is "my mind" ...okay fine but in practical terms, it's Comms. If we surrender Comms on Day 1 that's Game Over, we're just storing ammo for Antifa.

This Guy Read Jake Tapper's Cover-Up Book So That You Can Boycott It
Finally, a left-winger admits the obvious and undeniable.
Tyler Austin Harper
@Tyler_A_Harper I wrote about Biden and the new book. As the reporting in "Original Sin" makes clear: this story is bigger than just the 2024 campaign. It was more than a year or two of decline. We need to confront the truth: Joe Biden never should have been president of the United States.
So far, most discussion of the book has focused on incidents from later in Biden's term and 2024 campaign: not recognizing Clooney, calling Sullivan "Steve." But arguably the most damning new reveal came much earlier, during the 2020 campaign, when Biden was not yet president. 2/You don't say!
At least two Democrats who helped produce the films were shocked. They concluded, before Biden ever put his hand on the Bible or sat behind the Resolute Desk, that he wasn’t up to the job. “I didn’t think he could be president,” one of these Democrats explained. In 2020. 4/ pic.twitter.com/tQQHoluneM
— Tyler Austin Harper (@Tyler_A_Harper) May 16, 2025
The authors report that in 2020, Biden's staffers tried to get videos of him speaking with voters about key issues on Zoom for campaign content. But "he couldn't follow the conversation at all." A special team was tasked with editing *hours of footage* into usable *minutes*. 3/Tapper and Thompson admit this, but then also insist that it was only 2023/2024 when Biden started getting really bad -- in order to limit the blast radius of this bomb to just those two years. They don't want to admit that Biden's senility was obvious to everyone else during the 2019 primary.
At least two Democrats who helped produce the films were shocked. They concluded, before Biden ever put his hand on the Bible or sat behind the Resolute Desk, that he wasn't up to the job. "I didn't think he could be president," one of these Democrats explained. In 2020. 4/
People close to Biden tell the authors that his deterioration first became noticeable in 2015. Tapper and Thompson point to tapes from 2017 that suggest "Biden was really struggling" and "his cognitive capacity seemed to have been failing him." By 2020, it was getting worse. 5/
Which interview? Trust Jake Tapper to hide the name of whatever "journalist" participated in this sham interview, because he's a tribal bitch who thinks his job as a "journalist" is only to promote and defend "journalists."
Beyond the Zoom disaster, during Biden's 2020 campaign aides said that "they couldn't rely on him to stay on message, and he often had a very short attention span." In at least one case, they resorted to a teleprompter with scripted questions for an interview. Again: in 2020. 6/
The book goes on to catalogue many disturbing incidents during Biden's four years. Yes it got worse in 2023/2024, but it was bad from the beginning: cabinet meetings were described as "terrible and at times uncomfortable" from the onset. Biden used notecards. Canned responses. 7/That is not new news. That was reported years ago.
The picture the authors paint is of a president who was unable to adequately discharge the duties of his office from the very beginning of his term and certainly was unfit by the end of it: by 2024 cabinet secretaries confessed he couldn't be relied on in an emergency. 8/ Moments throughout the book are stunning, but only one made me gasp. It was not something Biden did, but that one of his aides said about his 2024 run: "He just had to win, and then he could disappear for four years--he'd only have to show proof of life every once in a while." 9/ In other words, the 2024 plan--for this aide at least--was to try to get a mentally unfit president elected for four more years, and then to hide him from the public while unelected staff ran the country. That's an attempt to undermine democracy and defraud the American public. 10/ As for the DNC, they not only failed to stop this train wreck but greased the tracks: they nixed a century-old primary schedule to put SC first, a strong state for Biden, under the false pretense of "uplifting Black voters." All to reelect a man the public thought was unfit. 11/ There's more in my article, much more in the book, but if you find yourself dismissing this because Trump is worse, or downplaying it as "just an old man being old" or "just some bad days," I do think you should ask yourself: is that really where you want to lower the bar to? 12/ It is not acceptable for a man who has some good days and some bad days to control the nuclear codes. It's not acceptable for a man who runs US foreign policy to have memory lapses or need teleprompter for basic questions or only be able to work reliably from 10am to 4pm. 13/Oh right because you're saying Donald Trump was also senile. In order to offer up a "Both Sides Are Equally Guilty" defense. Well, he is a leftwinger. His article is at the Regime rag The Atlantic.
If you're defending Biden against these revelations or downplaying them, you've lost the plot. In a sane world, there'd be bipartisan hearings. Regardless, the American public needs to confront the deeper implication: we've not had a fit, functional president in nearly a decade.

There was a fascinating story that came out from Democrat sources in the Lame Duck period, when people were trying to push out stories they'd been sitting on in a time when no one was paying much attention. It said that for all of Biden's term, decisions had been made by about 27 - 28 high ranking ex-Obama staffers, who were scattered throughout the bureacracy. And that they would privately consult with each other, and with Obama, and they would make the decisions, and also they would all push their respective agencies in the direction that was decided on. Naturally, this left a lot of room for everyone to improvise, and there was no oversight of anyone at all. The writers said that Joe really was never involved in any major decisions about anything, and that no one ever paid any attention to Kamala at all. In a very real way, it was Obama's 3rd Term.

I wouldn't go back that far, personally.
I'd say early 1990s was still pretty normal, politics-wise.
The Lewinsky scandal followed by the close 2000 election, is what changed everything.
The media became an obvious and total participant on the side of the left at that point.
We went back to normal for a bit around 9/11.
But then the Dems & Media went right back to constant lies and attacks and then their messiah arrived in 2008 and they haven't looked back since.
Maybe some of you older folks could look back to Cronkite coming out against the Vietnam war and Nixon resigning after a media hit job as a turning point?
Historic turning points seem to come every generation.
Trump has come along, like Reagan, to restore balance to the force.

Partisanship kept the belief that he was fine alive.
Bubbles of news kept bad evidence from people.
The debate burst all of that.
I didn't believe it at the time, but the more time has gone on the more I believe the analysis from Biden's own pollsters:
Biden would have lost the electoral college by more than 400 votes.
Exposing that lie was a nuclear bomb on the left.
And...post-election, places like CNN and MSNBC have seen their ratings collapse. Why? Opposition news grows when in the minority. "Everything in the world sucks and it's the other guy's fault" is a timeless message.
Except...it doesn't work anymore? Because the lying about covid, Biden, and Kamala leading in the polls have just broken people.

They said more than that by a 7-2 margin. You can guess the 2. They said the president doesn’t have the power to invoke the AEA, and that deportees don’t just require notice, that notice must inform them of their rights, specifically to a hearing.
Yes that’s right. An illegal alien who broke our laws is entitled to habeus before being deported.
So got it? SCOTUS just declared the president doesn’t have certain powers, the courts have usurped those powers and given illegal aliens power.

More, the Constitution itself says Habus can be suspended in times of Invasion.
Trump signed an EO declaring a National Emergency, due to invasion.
So either the Supremes are saying this is NOT a National Emergency (which they said during Covid they would not get involved in)... or the Constitution is moot due to the SUPREME POWER of the Court.

"
Alito and Thomas note Scotus has departed from its own procedures and caselaw in this and the previous April order in dissent and Alito lays out exactly where the Court has botched its own procedures to save a bunch of illegals from being deported under the AEA despite the administration noting no immediate deportation threat existed for the named plaintiffs.

Dry reading but Mathews v. Eldridge explains how lower courts must analyze how much due process these criminals have before being deported.
AEA came from 1798 and so well before the due process explosion promoted by the Warren Court and the APA which codified in part Londoner v. Denver and Bi-Metallic Investment v. CO Board of Equalization.
But nothing under the order prevents ordinary deportation proceedings from being used--only the use of the AEA is temporarily barred. So things like criminal convictions, criminal activities, and so on can be done through the regular system.

He hid in his basement. We made fun of him because of it. It was obvious as to why. They couldn't allow Biden to make public appearances because of his obvious mental deficiencies, so they did the next best thing (in their eyes)...tried to shut down Trump rallies using an already depleting COVID as a basis.
This is common knowledge.

I figure the guy is a pervert and touching himself behind the curtains thinking of future betrayals.
He had a nutty hero narrative lie about a supposed rushed meeting with a sick John Ashcroft in the hospital and confronting Andy Card over surveillance. Never happened.
Then after his DoJ stint, Comey became a consigliere for HSBC which was caught money laundering to the tune of being fined billions by regulators. At least 800 million was laundered from the Sineloa and another drug cartel through HSBC among other illegal activities.
Then he became the FBI director when Mueller retired. Mueller as a DA in Mass, of course, allowed one of the most massive lawsuits DoJ ever had to pay because they let 3 innocent guys rot in prison to shield Whitey Bulgar and the corrupt FBI agents handling him.
All these people are jerkoffs, criminals, perverts, and liars in government service.

Its worse than that. Roberts is eroding the dignity of his own system to try and win 80/20 rules that affect nothing. So lets say they DO block Trump in deporting illegals. He can still hold them in custody forever, since J6 did. They are breaking all their own hallowed rules for NOTHING. Just because Trump derangement is driving them mad.

Others also dropped out and then everyone endorsed Biden as a 'moderate alternative' to Sanders. Remember?
It was always a set up.
Biden hid in the frigging basement and gave tiny little presentations - badly - during C19. They knew; everyone knew. But "they" wanted him because they he could be easily swayed and would sign just about anything before him; would not strike down anything Obama had in place (if Trump hadn't gotten to it first), and he'd have no fiscal limits. All it would take was telling him to pick Harris, too, and he'd have his name cemented favorably in presidential history.

Yet, VENEZUELAN NATIONAL CRIMINAL INVADERS get free access to courts, to attorneys, to translators, etc., all without proper documentation, and, now, more "necessary" time to "defend" their "reasons" for being in the USA ILLEGALLY...?

Shock Poll: The People Most Eager to "Disconnect" from Friends and Family Members Over Politics Are... Left-Wing Colleged "Educated" Women
Educated...? Let's say "college-attending."
A poll finds that college-educated left-wing women, or AWFLs, are the group most eager to sever connections with friends or families due to their cultic "political" beliefs. You don't say. You. Don't. Say.If you're wondering where all of this radical left-wing authoritarian cultishness is coming from: It's coming from stupid left-wing women. I think women serve as the cultural and moral forces in society. When most women believe in wise things, society is orderly and prosperous. When most women believe in sick, demented things -- or, actually, when a privileged minority of women who exert an outsized influence on morals and culture -- society degenerates. Obviously our society has been degenerating for a long time. Jordan Peterson explains that they've conducted surveys to determine if there is a left-wing fascist impulse -- there is, obviously -- and if so, what factors lead someone to embrace left-wing fascist attitudes. The answers, based on actual social science surveys, are these: * Female gender * Feminine temperament. Note that some women may have a more masculine temperament and some men have a more feminine one. * Low verbal IQ That last one, he postulates, is critical for breeding this cultish left-wing fascist worldview, because you have to be sort of stupid to believe that all of your failures are due to a Conspiracy So Vast of men and white people working together to keep you from getting a raise and getting a husband.
New polling data shows what you may already suspect: your experience of losing friends since the 2024 election of Donald Trump is absolutely real -- if very divided depending on your political tribe. ... According to Cygnal's latest national survey of 1,500 likely voters (conducted May 6-8, with a 3 percent MOE), more than half of voters (53 percent) say "it's at least somewhat common that their friends and neighbors have ended a friendship because of Donald Trump and the 2024 election" while "39 percent say not that common or not at all common." The ideological breakdown isn't close. Democrats and voters who backed Kamala Harris in 2024 are far more likely to say friends and neighbors have ended a friendship over the election, with self-identified liberals saying they have a hard time co-existing and playing nice with someone who voted differently than they did by 30 points, a 2:1 margin (61 percent common compared to 31 percent not common). On the other side, conservatives are much more even-keeled -- 49 percent say lost friendships over 2024 are common, but 45 percent saying it's not common. If you wanted to drill down to the biggest dividing factor here, it's the portion of the coalition made up of college-educated women -- a cohort that now dominates the politics of the Democratic coalition. In their circles, they say differences of political opinion have led to broken friendships with friends and neighbors at a more than 40-point rate -- 67 percent to 24 percent. ... It's the allyship that matters most, you see -- not friendship.

I get the implication, but I'm not sure this is really political or Trumpful.
AWFLs are just terrible people in constant need of affirmation. They can't take any deviation from their accepted ideas or they'll feel challenged and insecure. They would sever connections based on almost anything, no matter how trivial. "Oh you don't like Taylor Swift? I just can't deal with you now!"
They demand absolute conformity in thought in large part because any deviation makes them feel weak and insecure.

I just gave an exam in which I asked students to explain issues in modern American history, from a list of options I provided.
One student (and yes, she identifies as non-binary. Why do you ask?) decided, "nah, I don't want to do any of those." Instead, she wrote an essay explaining that I hadn't given enough attention to LGBT history to suit her, and proceeded to, as she put it, "teach me a thing or two."

Sounds great - but would you sever a family relationship over something really important. A core value ? Something truly awful - like real child abuse or repeated violent criminal behavior ?
I certainly would. And have. And thats the problem. Politics invades everything now.
If a family member thinks you should be disarmed or institutionalized against your will ? Its politics now.
I hate this distinction of "politics". Its no longer a game played between the forty yard lines.

Liberals Are on the Verge of a Major PR Pivot. And Their Next Target Will NOT Be Trump.
The party’s base is furious with all the politicians who lied to them about Biden’s condition. Over the past week, there have been so many anti-Biden articles in the mainstream media — why, you would’ve thought he was a conservative...And right now, the base of the Democratic Party desperately wants its leaders to be held accountable...
They were lied to — betrayed by those they trusted. They’re outraged and out for blood. (And with good reason: If it happened to you, you’d be frickin’ furious, too.)
Liberal voters are craving an avatar who’ll carry their grievances.

I wonder why there's no common term for the manipulative tactics of cults where empathy, belonging and fear are cross contaminated and weaponized. Well I don't wonder because it is the primary tactic of the Left.
But the lies are integral. Once one sufficiently determines the Left are lying to them about everything it becomes facile to bust through the hard candy shell of weaponized empathy, belonging and fear. A hallmark abusive relationship. And easy to keep going because Republicans in the main are such wimpy traitorous assholes. They make the lies Left's lies super easy to believe.

When today's women have been conditioned to reject their essential nature; this isn't in any way surprising. They will naturally look for a "strong-man." That is why it is estimated that 20% of men have sexual dominion over 80% of women. A sexual caste system has been enacted and the out men have nowhere to go.

When my grandmother got her teachers cert, she went to the state Normal school for two years to get certified to teach primary grades, and then had two years to take and complete courses for her full teaching certification.
It got young women up and teaching, especially in smaller rural schools, it gave them the experience to decide to continue to teach or not, and it let them "earn and learn"
this also was in the period when women school teachers were required to be single in many districts, and many states. Grandma got married, and stopped teaching until she started teaching at the schools in the communities that popped up for shipyard workers during the war

Good point. That's another aspect, and another that I think exerts a siren call to the distaff side: catastrophism.
"We're threatened by [global warming, white supremacy, running out of water, etc.] and we have to have an emergency crash program to save ourselves!"
It's the modern equivalent of being rescued after being tied to railroad tracks by Simon Legree.

That's what I tried to do with Vladimir Czerny in Life Unworthy. Its not clear in the book, but (spoilers) he's over a thousand years old. He's seen it and done it all. Nazis are horrific but he's seen horrific over and over again and rides it out. Nothing surprises him.

Peterson: Let us face the uncomfortable truth: Cookie Monster is a tyrant. Beneath his fuzzy exterior lies a symbol of unchecked desire, a creature of pure id who devours cookies with no regard for restraint or consequence. “Me want cookie!” he roars, and in that cry, we hear the seeds of chaos—tyranny born of impulse overriding reason.
He doesn’t share out of virtue; he’s coerced by Sesame Street’s moral framework. Left unchecked, he’d consume every cookie in sight, a dragon hoarding not gold but crumbs. This isn’t cute; it’s dangerous. He teaches children that losing control is funny, that instant gratification is a personality trait. This sets us on a path to a culture of entitlement, where desires trump discipline.
Cookie Monster is the shadow within us—the glutton, the addict, whispering, “Take it now, consequences be damned.” When we laugh at him, we excuse our own weaknesses. He’s not just a puppet; he’s a warning of what happens when we let chaos rule.
So what do we do? We confront him. We teach our kids—and ourselves—that desire isn’t destiny. We put the cookie down, embrace discipline, and build a life of meaning, not crumbs.

Yeah its a common pattern I see in any place a conservative speaker does Q&A. The young leftist stompms up with a sneer on their face and goes down a list of accusations attacks, and alleged questions. Each one is moved to as if the conservative has said nothing refuting their point.
They aren't there for a conversation, debate, or to grow or understand. They aren't there to listen. They are there to educate, to fumigate the evil fash with t heir wisdom and brilliance. It doesn't even matter what the speaker says, the questioner just wants to make all their points and leave with a glow of virtue and success.

I was sharing images of creatures that I created for my fantasy world on Facebook and a woman lost her mind over this image:
https://tinyurl.com/arachnepic
she was ranting about its always the same, women treated as a monster underneath, smearing all women as secret destroyers and liars and on and on. It was a bit hysterical and excessive, not -- shall we say -- doing here gender any help fighting stereotypes.
But I kinda got her point. Women are very often treated as the sweet, seductive monster in fiction and fantasy gaming. The femme fatale is a common character type. So yeah, you probably get tired of it after a while.

Well, yes and no. Certainly a lot of females are portrayed in fantasy (and ancient myths before that) as evil or at least manipulative and up to no good. A lot of men are too. And there are many examples of honorable or good women in fantasy too. You know what the real problem is? It's that the audience -- including women -- like the bad girls better.

A bad budget bill is better than the CR process we've had for 20 years.
Voting against a budget bill prevents the voting on rescission bills.
If the goal was the limit government, voting against the budget bill because it doesn't go far enough is just going to lead to another CR which continues to spend money on TARP.

I am amused by school districts abolishing honors courses because they "scriminate." So white and Asian parents either send their kids to private schools or get private tutoring for them.

Tulsi Gabbard Fires Two Deep Staters for Undermining Their Superior Officer's Foreign Policy and Allegedly for Leaking;
Perjurer John Brennan Cries About His Frenz Getting Canned
Okay, fair enough, that's your opinion.
But what is not fair -- or legal, actually -- is to leak your opinion to the press in order to spike a policy you disagree with.
I wonder if they were members of #TheResistance...? Hm, seems likely:
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has fired the top officials leading the National Intelligence Council -- whom whistleblowers describe as "radically opposed to Trump" -- and has moved the agency to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, or ODNI, to ensure she can block any "politicization of intelligence," Fox News Digital has learned. Gabbard fired Mike Collins, who was serving as the acting chair of the National Intelligence Council, and his deputy, Maria Langan-Riekhof, Tuesday, senior intelligence officials told Fox News Digital. Fox News Digital reached out Langan-Riekhof for comment and did not immediately hear back, and couldn't immediately find contact information for Collins. Collins also has whistleblower complaints against him for political bias and "deliberately undermining the incoming Trump administration," officials said.
They added that Collins was closely associated with Michael Morrell, the former deputy director of the CIA who worked to write a public letter in 2020 claiming that Hunter Biden's laptop had "all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation," and to get signatures from top ex-intelligence officials.John Brennan went on MSNBC to nearly cry about it, which means: Direct Hit. Deep State agents uncovered.
Tulsi Gabbard opening a folder
As for Langan-Reikhof, officials said she has been a "key advocate" for diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, and is someone who whistleblowers allege is "radically opposed to Trump." Meanwhile, Gabbard is moving the National Intelligence Council from the CIA to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to "directly hold accountable any improper action and politicization of intelligence," Fox News Digital has learned. Many intel community leakers are "career bureaucrats that are entrenched in Washington politics," officials said. "It takes time to weed them out and fire them," one official told Fox News Digital, adding that "plans to eliminate non-essential offices within ODNI that we know are housing deep state leakers are underway." ... The moves come as Gabbard has taken steps to root out leakers and alleged "deep state holdovers" who officials say are politicizing intelligence analysis and "trying to sabotage President Trump's agenda." ... So far, Gabbard has referred three intelligence community professionals to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution over alleged leaks of classified information. Fox News Digital first reported on those criminal referrals in April. An ODNI official at that time told Fox News Digital that the intelligence community professionals allegedly leaked classified information to the Washington Post and The New York Times.

If John Brennan is livid, you know it's a good thing. That's the only worth of anything he says. If he hates it, you know then it's a great thing. It's like an "Inverse Cramer" reaction. Alexa Henning, Gabbard's Deputy Chief of Staff, skewered him -- "Idk I feel like he should sit this one out" -- then posted a picture of The Guardian headlines of the 2014 CIA spying scandal of Senate staff under Brennan. Even Democrats were furious about the scandal in 2014, but then there were no effective consequences beyond an apology.By the way: Completely unrelated, apropos of nothing, but murder rates in Denver and Aurora, Colorado are plummeting now that Tren de Aragua members have been deported. Todd Huston for Breitbart:
New data shows that homicides in Denver and Aurora, Colorado, have experienced a significant drop in the wake of Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) efforts to take down the Tren de Aragua gang members that had been causing so much chaos in the area. But local Americans are still being killed by President Joe Biden's migrants, including a 24-year-old woman killed in July of 2024 in Aurora by a 15-year-old reckless illegal-migrant driver. The local prosecutor just offered a sweetheart probation and community service deal to the youth migrant who is now applying for humanitarian asylum. The numbers have taken a significant downturn in the first quarter of 2025, according to data from the Major Cities Chiefs Association, KSUA-TV reported. Homicides in Denver declined 58 percent during the first three months over the same time last year, and nearby Aurora saw a 36 percent decline during the same period. Aurora Police Chief Todd Chamberlin added that all crime is down in his city. "The City of Aurora and Aurora PD are actually in a really good spot right now. Our crime numbers are down 22.8% overall," Chamberlin said. The Trump administration made the Denver area an important focal point of immigration removals. Even as the president was being inaugurated, ICE had moved in to arrest 538 illegal aliens in cities including Denver. ICE quickly announced an expansion of efforts in Colorado to target members of the violent Venezuelan street gang, Tren de Aragua.
But even as the administration ramped up its efforts to pick up as many of these dangerous criminals as possible, Democrats such as Denver Mayor Mike Johnston and Colorado Gov. Jared Polis worked to thwart the president's efforts. The Trump administration even moved to sue Denver and state officials over the obstruction of federal immigration enforcement.
I'm sure it's all a coincidence. Let's bring all of these Maryland Men back to Colorado.

How does that work? Tulsi has at least two powerful DEI attributes: woman and minority. I'm not sure hawtness is also a DEI attribute, but I think I'll allow it anyway.
Does Langan-Reikhof believe in DEI or not?

As for Langan-Reikhof, officials said she has been a "key advocate" for diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, and is someone who whistleblowers allege is "radically opposed to Trump."
And yet she kept her job until now??

HuffPo: DHS Is Considering A Reality Show Where Immigrants Compete For Citizenship. Daily Mail reported on Thursday that Rob Worsoff, a Canadian-born writer, producer and director, pitched the show, titled "The American," and that DHS Secretary Kristi Noem is a fan of the concept.
That is some Stephen King shit right there. Anyone remember "The Running Man?" Weirdly, that story took place in 2025.
And the losers win an all expenses paid trip to El Salvador! The Hunger Games is one step away. I hope Hispanics who voted for Trump realize what MAGA really thinks of them.
...the Canadian-born producer hopes to spark a nationwide dialogue on American identity by showcasing the perspectives of those who aspire to become citizens. Worsoff is most recognized for his role as a producer on the A&E reality show Duck Dynasty.
Donald Trump's "The Immigrant" on Fox Network. With the catch phrase "you're deported". What insanity. And a minstrel show at half-time. This is out of a dystopian nightmare movie plot.

Agree to a point. I think men should pay some attention to how they look, and try to look their best (when it matters), especially if they want ladies to do the same. But making a show of it -- such as using heavy filters on a video -- is vain and gayful. Especially for a guy like Brennan, who is not trading even remotely on his looks. He wants us to take him seriously. Then he gets on a video and he's filtered like a pop star.

This is actually pretty close to what they do:
The National Intelligence Council (NIC), established in 1979 and reporting to the Director of National Intelligence, bridges the United States Intelligence Community (IC) with policy makers in the United States. The NIC produces the "Global Trends" report every four years beginning in 1997, for the incoming President of the United States. NIC documents and reports which are used by policymakers, include the National Intelligence Estimate and the Global Trends reports delivered every four years. The NIC's goal is to provide policymakers with the best available information, that is unvarnished, unbiased and without regard to whether the analytic judgments conform to current U.S. policy.

I wouldn't go that far, but to me the whole exercise makes no sense. The hyphen is a modern feminist girl-power thing to avoid taking a man's name (the husband). So instead, the girlboss keeps the name of another man (her father) who so oppressed another woman (her mother) than he made her change her name?
Plus, it results in weird, cumbersome names. And what happens when a hyphenated name marries another hyphenated name?

A friend of mine had a father with an Hispanic-sounding last name, which is the name she grew up with, though she doesn't look Hispanic and in no way ever felt connected to or participated in "Hispanic culture." The name was just a leftover from some hookup with a random guy her (non-Hispanic) mom had a one-night stand with long ago.
Fast forward 30-ish years, and my friend gets married to a guy with a bland non-Hispanic name. She totally loves him, BUT, she did not take his last name upon getting marrried, but kept her maiden name.
Why?
Well, to be blunt, her job opportunities are infinitely better with an Hispanic last name. Sad but true.

Maybe you could get your own publisher to update your name, but it would be a gigantic hassle to get the authors of all papers that had cited yours to update their bibliographies as well.
Academics live by citations, and will go to great lengths to ensure they always get credit.

I knew a young woman who hated her parents, and hated her ex-husband that they had forced her to marry for religious reasons. So she stopped using any surname at all and just went by her first name. I think she even made that change legally.

I think in some cases - like that Spanish tradition of keeping approximately the last two generations of surnames, or the American thing where a woman takes her husband's last name and keeps her maiden name as a middle name - it functions as a quick-and-dirty genealogy.

Politico: Democrats Beginning to Fear That Their Five-Year Conspiracy of Deception About the Husk President Might Come With Actual Consequences
While Politico refuses to say so, the media should have the same worries.
Oh right, I said "Democrats." That includes the media.Note that the only thing Democrats will admit about Biden's health is that maybe he lacked the physical ability to "vigorously" fight in the 2024 election, or maybe he didn't reassure voters that he "could win." This is the same lie they all told when they were pressuring Biden to drop out. They all claimed they had no questions about his mental acuity or ability to discharge the office. They only were concerned about his "ability to win" or the public's mistaken perception of Biden as too frail and deteriorated to be president. This is how they justify forcing him out of the race but letting the demented man remain president for six more months. And they're still lying, including those, like Josh Shapiro, that Politico claims are finally doing some "truth" telling. They're still pushing the absurd lie that Biden was mentally fit, just maybe not capable of convincing voters that he was mentally fit.
Joe Biden may have cost Democrats the White House in 2024. Their inability to admit it, some Democrats fear, could hobble them in 2028. As a fresh reckoning in the party unfolds around the former president's mental acuity, potential presidential contenders have mostly dodged questions about his condition while in office. They've also sidestepped whether the party should have more forcefully called on him to abandon his reelection bid earlier. "How are some of these national frontrunners or people who are already barnstorming states like South Carolina or Iowa expected to look voters in the eyes with a straight face and say, 'Trust me, even though I got the 2024 election so terribly wrong?'" asked the former Rep. Joe Cunningham (D-S.C.), who said he expects the issue to come up on the trail in what is now the first-in-the-nation primary state. "There's no courage on display by any of the folks whose names are being circulated right now." He said the party's Biden question needs to be "nipped in the bud" if Democrats want to reestablish trust with voters. Some potential presidential contenders have been willing to criticize Biden, to varying degrees, risking pushback from critics accusing them of hypocrisy after they defended Biden last year. Just this week, Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut said there was "no doubt" about Biden's cognitive decline, former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg conceded the party "maybe" would have done better without him and Rep. Ro Khanna of California said "Democrats must be honest ... Joe Biden should not have run for reelection." But they were the exception. For the most part, leading Democrats -- many of whom attested to Biden's fitness when he was still on the ticket -- are ducking what is fast becoming the first real litmus test of the 2028 campaign. The problem for Democrats is Biden's blast radius keeps expanding. It isn't just the embarrassing accounts dribbling out from a forthcoming book. It's that so many Democrats with 2028 ambitions were defending him at the time -- and are now being forced to answer for what they knew and when. When Murphy, in an interview, fessed up to Biden's diminishing capabilities, GOP operatives threw months-old comments in face. "This you??" said an aide to Speaker Mike Johnson on the social media platform X, pointing to when the Democratic senator had vouched for Biden in the wake of a damning Wall Street Journal report on the subject. Khanna got similar treatment. After Biden's disastrous debate, one social media user pointed out, Khanna compared Biden to the fictional boxer Rocky, saying the latter was a "fighter" even if he "wasn't the most eloquent." On Thursday, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro appeared to try to differentiate himself from other ambitious Democrats -- and put some distance between himself and Biden -- by maintaining he privately raised concerns with the former president in the moment. ... While Shapiro said publicly at the time that Biden had "a responsibility to reassure" Pennsylvanians he could win, the governor and most other elected Democrats defended Biden's fitness up through the final months of his presidency.
The article notes that Gavin Newsom vouched for Biden's fitness, even after the debate. At least he vouched publicly. But he was present at the fundraiser where Biden shocked people with his weakness and lack of mental acuity.
Asked by POLITICO in August 2024 if he had any concerns that Biden had slipped, Shapiro said, "Not at all, and I've been in regular contact with the president."
Democrats continue pushing the lie and refusing to come clean:
But the book reports that Newsom attended a June 2023 fundraiser with Biden in Kentfield, California that "went awry," with attendees "shaken by Biden's meandering remarks." "I remember leaving that fundraiser thinking, Fuck," one attendee told the book's authors, Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson.
"I think he had good days and bad days. That's all I'll say," Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan told POLITICO.The leader of the free world, the man with access to the nuclear football, is not allowed to continue in office if he has "some good days, some bad days." Many Democrats who vouched up and down for Biden's fitness now say... they didn't see Biden's infirmity, because they just never spoke to Biden much:
... It was a pleading of ignorance that Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer likewise employed, telling CNN on Thursday, "I didn't see the president frequently. And I can tell you I can't speak to that directly."But you did speak to his fitness directly in 2024. You say you didn't really see him much -- but you vouched for him anyway.
...
Some Democrats argue that their leaders aren't owning up to the truth about Biden -- and risk keeping the issue alive indefinitely as a result. They fear that Democrats' record-low approval ratings are tied, in part, to their unwillingness to come clean.
This is amusing: "Tapper" is trending, and not for good reasons.

Then how come all of you repeated the lie that he had a bit of a cold, the sniffles, just a bit under the weather excuse for days and days afterward?
Recall how you repeated that without filter, explanation or contest?
And then there was the rally in GA just days after, and you all cheered, "see! he's fine! Really was just a bit ill at the debate, is all!"

He might still be hanging around in 2036. Or maybe not. I'm not sure he survives his current cancellation at the DNC. He also seemed an odd choice to have any role in the party or as any kind of influence at all.
He's an idiot with no skills or talent, looks like an AI version of an incel with hacked-off penises in his fridge, comes off as an arrogant little cockpole sitta, and everything he touches turns to shit.
Why would anyone want him around? The party might be finally coming to that realization as well.

People acting like Democrat elite are even able to rig their primary process have...no memory of the past 2 primaries, do they?
The one they did successfully rig, 2016, they barely managed because Hillary was so disliked and the establishment so distrusted. And, in response, the DNC actually decreased the strength of superdelegates.
In 2020, they tried so hard to rig it, propping up Kamala then Warren then Beto then Buttigieg (who even won Iowa) until they had to coalesce around Biden as the only possible non-Bernie choice.
The Democrats' ability to rig their primary is...vastly overstated.

They really are the worst of the worst. See you can't "prove" how much Whitmer interacted with Biden or what occurred when she did. So that's where she and the others land.
Meanwhile no one will ask "but you, ya know, saw him on the TV, right"? And that's when you realize the media's phony gasping shock upon "finding out" his condition is not just cover for themselves, but for their patrons.
How can the media verily demand these candidates all knew something and covered it up when they too were "fooled" by the six dastardly staffers.

He said the party's Biden question needs to be "nipped in the bud" if Democrats want to reestablish trust with voters."
Easier said than done. How exactly, should this bud be nipped? Once they admit they didn't say anything about his disability before the debate, they'll need to explain why they never 25A'd him after the debate. Once they 'explain' that, they'll be asked 'who, then, was actually running the WH'. And then 'did Biden really sign all those pardons?' And so on.
Trump (the Reps won't do it) can make their lives miserable for the next couple of years.

I think the real answer is that they pushed Biden out with the plan of having an open convention which they could manage to get the result they wanted.
What that was specifically, I'm not sure (I remember rumors of Obama pushing Michelle, but rumors), but I'm certain they weren't planning on Kamala.
It was an effort to go around Kamala.
Which was...idiotic because how it played out was so fucking obvious. 4 months out from the general election, after the first debate and with the GOP settled, no one was going to wait around for the convention. They were eager to get it settled quickly, and Kamala used her position and name recognition to secure the delegates within a week.

The sitting president was a vegetable. Who is on the hook for determining that he was incapable, and subsequently removing him from office?
I'm pretty sure it's Congress. The House, specifically.
In a lesser, unofficial sense, it's "journalists", but we all know those don't exist anymore.
But that's where our ire should lie. Obviously the DNC or Biden's own crew weren't going to run around saying "holy shit this guy's a vegetable". It's the people who weren't directly in the employ of the president or his party who are to blame for this shit getting as bad as it was.

No, they just didn't have a primary.
And then they did backroom stuff to force their incumbent president to back out after having won all of the delegates in the mock primary they did have.
It's a very different situation from actually having a primary.
Now, if you're predicting that the Democrat Party is going to completely cancel the primary and just crown whomever the elites want, that's something to argue. I don't believe it.
However, that primary is still going to happen, and you have to base their ability to rig primaries based on their history of rigging primaries, not 2024 which they just...undid.

I gave up predicting after 2015. It seems like each of the last three elections they’ve moved farther and farther away from letting their voters decide on the candidate, either in the primaries or general- the 2020 basement tour was maybe worse than the primary rigging. How do they stop?

No, that's not it. They know what he was, and is. This isn't about their opinion of him. This is about their refusal to admit they lied out their asses for the entirely of his term and before, and they're still lying, because they fear electoral oblivion if they admit to their crimes. I think they don't need to worry.

Absolutely correct. What the Republicans should do is to keep on asking about this for the next four years - at least as long as the MFM/Dems asked any Republican they could interview about what they thought of J6. If they could still hang that onto Republicans, you know that they would.

For the most part, predictions this far out are not particularly useful. Lots can happen from events.
Predicting an open seat prezzie race aside from Vance being a serious competitor for the GOP nomination is sort of like predicting the Kentucky Derby four years hence when the race is run by three year olds.
Wait until about one year before 2028 elections.

Really?
2016; Hillary reportedly wins 6 of 6 tie breaking coin flips in the Iowa caucuses, then all references to the coin flip results are hidden and obscured from further review.
2020 delays Iowa Dem caucus results, again trying to stifle an apparent Bernie surge. Then, Dem leadership successfully eans on other candidates to drop out to drag Biden over the finish line as the only hope to stop Bernie.
In 2024, the make sure to have an historically early first presidential debate to showcase Biden's unfitness for office AFTER the primaries but early enough to force him out in a soft coup and attempt to select a successor.
Seems like they've had their thumb on the scale a lot recently, and been fairly successful at keeping out the candidates they don't want, at least.

Couldn't be bothered to let the rest of us know while he was Speaker, and certainly couldn't use that information to his advantage when he was negotiating against Biden, Pelosi & Co.

Or, it may be viewed as an extraordinary circumstance brought on by a sitting president doing what was best for the country and stepping aside without any sense of pride. Democrats definitely believe this one, by the way.

Dark money oligarchs are why the Dem process is so f*cked up. Soros purposefully picked Obama in 2008 to run against Killary.
The GOP dark money crowd are similarly set up which is why Jeb! raised so much money to win the nomination.
One way to diminish their power is to require the airwaves to allocate time for candidates and political parties cheap as a condition for their broadcasting license. Another is disclosure of the entire chain of dark money individual contributors for ads.

Do they seriously believe that taking care of the Dems that hate SALT would save them if a real Dem ran against them? Take the gift they were given and argue for local fiscal responsibility instead.
If there's any deal they should be cutting, it's to ask for a gradual increase in the SALT cap, with more coming if they are reelected to argue for more in front of a Republican Congress. They lose all leverage if they get everything they want now.

As I said, the Dem Party Leadership seems to have a pretty good track record of keeping OUT candidates they don't like (mostly Bernie). 2024 gets brought up because, even though it wasn't an actual primary, they were able to exert influence to force out the candidate they didn't want. A sitting president, no less, so in some ways, it shows immense power.
You are correct, so far, that there hasn't been any evidence they can get the candidate they WANT, but excluding people is still pretty powerful. If the GOP could do it, we wouldn't have Trump. Ever.

Kamala didn't do crap. It was Biden's people using the trap card after getting forced out. Harris was *always* Bidens insurance against being sidelined or deposed. When the bluff was called, Biden set off the bomb.
The delegates were Biden's people, the coup didn't account that they would follow his lead. Ooops.
Even without Biden fixing it, there were serious logistic issues with Biden's war chest not being transferable to another candidate.

Not to be macabre but the oldest Baby Boomer is 79 today and would be 81 by the time of the next election in 2026. The youngest at 61 today and 63 in 2026 plus 65 in 2028. And I suspect the youngest boomers vote more like Gen X probably due to no memories of JFK, Vietnam, or Nixon/Ford other than background noise.
Gen X plus the youngest Boomers will probably be the largest voting cohort in 2026 by numbers and probably still in 2028 as voting rates start to decline when people enter their 70's. Millennials will start replacing Gen X and younger Boomers by the 2030's

Who else is brazen enough to mark down 1000 votes for the Dem in a ballot box of 10 ballots with the precinct going 99% for the Dem?
Even when caught on video running the same stack of ballots through the counter multiple times, they got a multi-million dollar judgement in their favor.
Can you imagine the weak-kneed, lily-white GOPe judges ever, ever, ever ruling against a black woman precinct chair? No matter how fraudulent the vote?

I don't see any possibility that Odessa and the Black Sea Coast isn't held by Russia either de facto or completely. Its Russian, and that port can't be let fall into hostile NATO hands. Perhaps a fig leaf 'independence' or open city could be tried, but defense would be Russian.

That was Kamala after the investment. By law if Biden pulled out that entire amount would have had to be returned to the donors, and the new candidate would have to re-raise that cash. Not easy.
They used the fact that the donations were to Biden Harris to not return anything...and then Harris' staff or she herself blew the money.

Even there, I think the percentage of college bound females is shrinking due to escalating costs and ending of the Biden era no payment needed student loans. Simply put, the female sex is discovering the same thing that males did economically in the 2010-2024 era. Massive debt to get college degrees affects one's ability to have a life beyond college.

Yep. Lower voting registration (primarily a mobility issue) and a bit lower voting right than the prime demographic of 40-65 or so. Plus they are in the peak geographic mobility stage and trying to start families. The usual pattern is once out of the 18-29 year old lowest voting cohort, the 30-44 begins a steep climb in voting due to home ownership, decreased mobility (which requires reregistration), and often means moving from the cities to suburbs where voting becomes the norm due to local taxes as well as schools.
Bit too lazy to look up current figures as my research on mobilization dates to the 00's but not much reason to assume a different behavior from the past Greatest, Silent, Boomer, Gen X, early Millenials in voter mobilization research.

None of the people around Biden had been elected to the office of the Presidency by the American people. None of them had the right to make policy by usurping the power of the Executive.
That includes Dr Jill.
Given the damaging nature of Their Illegal and UnConstitutional Governance they should be arrested, tried, and if convicted, executed.

The students are the easier ones to cow. It is now the staff and the woke faculty that have to be tackled. It will take a lot of lawsuits, firings, and denial of federal funds to end the privilege system in academia.

Forcing the GOP Senate to actually vote would have its advantages. SALT is a silly place to stand firm, as is the idea you are going to get more cost cutting directly in the bill. The longer this goes, the smaller the cuts will be, so the spending conservatives can go fuck themselves.

There is a story, today, in the UK DM rag about him closing his eyes briefly in Saudi Arabia. Big freaking deal.
They have NO imagination, the Dims and redditors of collective screeching. Turn about is fair play they seem to say.
Ok. Fine. In that case, jail Comey and others for their potential incitement of insurrection and murder. Treat them the same way as the J6 people who were and are jailed without trial. Yet Pelosi wants a plaque or something for J6, as her brain matter is full of white matter and plaques. Apparently this puts me in a bad mood!
And while they scream for MS-13 cartel rapist murderers, they don't want the whites fleeing South Africa on our soil. Makes sense! NOT!!!
I think Dims should collectively have MRI's of their wee brains as I think they are upside down and installed backwards.

FBI Now Investigating James Comey for Posting "86 47" on Instagram, Widely Seen as a Call to Kill ("86") Trump, the 47th President
Pine-Scented Druid Philosopher James Comey is at it again.
This time, he's not taking pictures of himself communing with Treebeard in Fangorn Forest. Now, he's posting wannabe Gay Thrist-Trap pictures of himself summoning Aquaman with a magic conch:
In Holland, Mich., Redmond, Ore., and elsewhere, grinning marchers wore shirts and carried placards emblazoned with the number "8647," pairing the old slang term for murder with a 47 for Trump. One 8647 protester stood right alongside Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison in Minneapolis. "Hands off or heads off," read the message on a life-size guillotine paraded about in Denver.Wait, a life-sized guillotine? Didn't the presence of a very fake, half-sized "gallows" get used against the J6ers to claim that their incitement could really lead to mass killings of congressmen? Yes, I think it did. This cockgargler is now under investigation by the Secret Service, Kash Patel says, who have primary responsibility for investigating threats to the president or incitements to assassinate him. I hope they find some convoluted way to throw his well-traveled ass in prison.
Secretary Kristi NoemGive him the J6 treatment -- put in jail for months in pre-trial detention. If they don't throw him in prison, we'll have to find some other way to 86 James Comey. Hey, I don't know what it means, either.
@Sec_Noem Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey just called for the assassination of @POTUS Trump. DHS and Secret Service is investigating this threat and will respond appropriately.

Gabbard says that yes, she does think James Comey should go to prison.
Speaker Mike Johnson
@SpeakerJohnson President Trump has already survived TWO assassination attempts. Now, former disgraced FBI director James Comey is either threatening to kill Donald Trump or suggesting someone should. This is as outrageous as it is dangerous. Grateful @Sec_Noem and @FBIDirectorKash are looking into this.
🚨BREAKING: DNI Tulsi Gabbard calls for former FBI Director James Comey to be thrown behind bars over his threat against President Trump.

Impeachment -- which has no basis in law or sanity, let alone any chance of going anywhere in the house.
Murder -- which they've tried several times now.
But whatever he meant, he knew very well this was not a dog whistle but a direct open clarion call for the loonies on the left to assassinate the president.

I do not think he accidentally found this or that he did it himself. I think he created it via AI. It is just too perfect. You don't find shells and stones like this in perfect size and shape. There are no foot prints or disturbed sand. This means that there should be a digital track for this. I am surprised no one seems to have picked up on this.

I think that's splitting hairs. How many conservatives were lit up by the FBI after posting something "less than flattering" about the *biden junta? Nothing illegal about criticism... but some ended up in jail for it.
Whether there were other, factual charges or made up bullshit is debatable.... but they still got "the treatment" from the FBI.

I know what 86 means, but what confuses me is
"cock-gargler".
I mean, Comey is a pretty big guy but I don't think could gargle even one rooster let alone a gargle a gaggle of them.
Maybe there's a special breed of chickens no bigger than the end of your thumb, maybe from some place like Connecticut or Pitcairn Island,
that way Comey could get enough cocks in his mouth, several at one time, to actually gargle them really well..
That must be what it is.
Whew! I'm glad that's solved!
Posted by: naturalfake at May 16, 2025 12:24 PM (iJfKG)
I think it's a military expression, not a mob one, at least initially. My dad, an ex-Naval officer, used to say 86 all the time. I don't think he was ever in the mob.
The United States also has a Uniform Code of Military Justice that has an Article 86: Absence Without Leave, a.k.a AWOL. The term was derived from military shorthand. Rotary phones had T on the 8 key and O on the 6 key, so to throw out (TO) something was to 86 it.

the first and earliest place I ever heard or saw "86" used was in restaurants: cancel that order. It means end or remove. In theory this didn't have to mean assassinate, but as I noted above there's only two ways to remove a president, and impeachment is not viable.

>>I learned from Comey that "intent" is what matters. Everyone knows what his intent was, him most of all.
Let's be clear, Comey as the FBI director has no say in whether the DOJ would charge Hillary or not, he was simply the front for Obama/Lynch.
That being said, the government never had to prove intent for the manifest and sundry crimes of Hillary Clinton, only that she broke the law, which she did, thousands of times.

CRT, if you did that to a neighbor via social media, upon complaint, the cops would come by to have a chat with you as potentially threatening your neighbor.

Plus, this history of assassination of political figures, especially ones with such prominence as Trump, doesn't lead to the assassinating side gaining popular support.
As we can see from 2024, the Democrats' ability to manage elections is not ubiquitous, and the Republican side would be much more emboldened to crack down on Democrats in...harsher terms.
Vance would have a green light to just...lock everyone up. And few people would care.

I don’t understand why anyone feels that they have to default to assuming either good intentions by Comey or that they must somehow explain that we are overreacting to his childish, wink, wink, nudge, nudge, murder the president post.
It is essential that we treat this creep, exactly the same way, and with exactly the same ruthlessness as we would be treated in similar circumstances. This is the only way to either return to the old rules, or ensure that our enemies do not profit from our unilateral disarm.
You’re not better than that. You’re just weak, and you empower the enemy. Stop doing that. Fight viciously and ruthlessly over every little thing every single time without remorse or hesitation. And, even if you lose, at least you will never be a serf.

I thought Trump nixed that idea and Patel says they are going to spread the staff out to big cities where the crimes they're supposed to be investigating actually is instead of centralized in one building in DC.
Seems they'll still need an office there with all the crime going on in DC.

Not really envious of those with big fortunes nor massive fame. Money never guarantees whether you have a 'good' life or not and often turns one into a monster. Bill Gates for example or most Hollyweird creatures. The Royal Family of the UK is another.
Joe Rogan recounts once when he and Dave Chapelle went to a Hollyweird party and how strange it was. Basically celebrities all talking with other celebrities about show biz in a stilted and artificial manner. They end up congregating with each other because they share so little with the rest of humanity. Sad really.

One of my dad's farmhands was a Viet Nam vet that specialized in explosives. Ended up being sent to federal prison for a stint for using explosives to mass harvest fish to sell in the Missouri River.
Anyway, he mentioned the best way to survive in prison if you are a new punk is to pick a fight with the meanest and baddest. If you survive, you'll probably get your ass kicked thoroughly in the fight but no one will mess with you afterwards. Being thought crazy and unpredictable is an advantage in when dealing with prison society.

This is the director of the FBI who claimed around 100 times testifying to Congress about RussiaRussiaRussia! that he "couldn't recall" specific details of the most important case in his entire life because he knew the details would expose him as the Deep State flunky he is.
Now he can't recall that '86' means 'to get rid of, trash, kill'?
He may not get convicted of anything, but they should at least stick a microscope up his ass so far that he feels like he's been in prison.
How did so many duplicitous, lying, self-serving, power-hungry, petty tyrants, like Comey, get so high up in the elite of America's government, academia, and media?

The cops were called to a domestic disturbance and found one City Hall employee, Huang Hudson, shirtless with deep bite marks. The questioned Marwa who was there who admitted to it, first claiming Huang had harmed her then admitting he didn't. The two of them told the cops they work for City Hall and tried to assault the cops.
Marwa, 27, is a "refugee" of course and her background is social justice and refugee advocacy so...perfect for police oversight. Also, apparently blonde hair can look good on an Afghan.
See, look at all the diversity we'd be missing without all these immigrants and refugees?

They post notices in English and Spanish...
They arrest illegals for Trespassing... and a Fed Judge is throwing out the charges because he says they did not give enough notice that they were trespassing.
Since when is ignorance of the law, a valid defense?

Bare minimum, Patel has every reason to arrest Comey for breaking a federal law.

But Patel has every right to arrest Comey as long as he's within the bounds of the US.

Special agents were trying to serve a warrant on the home of Craig Deleeuw Robertson in Provo, south of Salt Lake City, when the shooting happened at 6:15 a.m., the FBI said in a statement.
Robertson was armed at the time of the shooting, according to two law enforcement sources who spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity to discuss details of an ongoing investigation.

They woke him up at 6:15am "serving a warrant" and shot him dead because he was armed "according to anonymous sources."

Don't really have that choice due to prison gangs. Someone, however, with specific abilities to fulfill needs is also left alone. Those able to help with legal issues, those able to help communicate with the outside, and so on. Absent that, crazy is actually a pretty good default. Quite a few inmates are 'crazy' in the technical term--just not enough to fulfill M'Naughton rules.

THE MORNING RANT: Would Venture Capitalists and Startup Accelerators Invest in Entrepreneurs Who’ll Be Remediating Derelict Wind Farms?
[These] include companies focused on electric and autonomous vehicles, supply chain innovations, urban planning, smart traffic solutions, automotive battery technology and quantum technology.That is one trendy list. And clearly, any companies engaged in most of these areas would be relying on government grants and contracts for revenue, especially in regards to urban planning, smart traffic solutions, and the EV related stuff. There are not consumers and businesses clamoring to buy urban planning software or smart traffic solutions. So, to circle back to my two clunky points. That giant field of static wind turbines that Mr. CBD observed in France will soon be a field of derelict wind turbines. And there are thousands of such fields across the globe. There are over 75,000 ”active” wind turbines in the U.S. alone. “Active” doesn’t necessarily mean that they are spinning or producing any electricity – they just haven’t been decommissioned. But they will. All 75,000 of those monstrosities will have to come down as the wind debacle plays out and they reach the end of their relatively short life span.
There will be a great business opportunity for entrepreneurs to start-up businesses to get into the wind turbine remediation business. But those entrepreneurs won’t be skinny-jean guys who live in lofts and talk about AI and the blockchain. They’ll be guys wearing steel-toe boots and using equipment financed by a bank, because the VCs and “accelerators” will be focused on the latest feel-good fads.
Pharmaceutical companies now operate under a politically dangerous business model. They enjoy government-granted patent protections to block competition, while squeezing insurers and patients to extract maximum profit. This isn’t capitalism. It’s a merger of legal monopoly and short-sighted corporate greed — a textbook example of protectionism paired with profit-maximization stripped of ethical restraint.It’s behind a paywall, but if you’re a Blaze subscriber, I’d be honored if you’d give it a read.

On the theme of "someone's going to make a buck cleaning up all this shit", I have been thinking about the many, many gargantuan warehouses springing up in my area to house the untold plastic riches flooding in from China until some dumb hump buys the damn crap.
But with less chinesium getting imported, whither the warehouses? I could easily be convinced that over 50% of them never were occupied since being finished, with perpetual "For Lease" signs along every by-road in the area.
So what will they become? Factory space, with plenty of elbow room, room for storage, and docks for days?
Section them up into little incubators for small businesses? I've dreamed up dozens of business ideas myself recently.

For investors it's all about the exit strategy. For the last 30+ years the market has put a much higher valuation on tech related products. Even when a revenue stream was hard to identify the valuations given to tech companies is many multiples higher than for industrial products. Not always logical but that's what it is.

1. Venture capital has been chasing startup "green-energy" fads because that's where the money is, including obscene amounts of free gov't money. Yes, the ventures almost always fail. But that's long after the initial VC investors made piles of money. The losers are the 3rd or 4th round of investors. You know, the suckers.
2. There is no gov't or other money in undoing environmental wastelands created by solar and wind projects. So these wastelands will continue to be wastelands, conceivably forever.

Disposal costs for all that useless crap is seriously going to cut into any potential profit that might be available to whoever returns the land to a workable condition.

You don't have to remove all of it. Drill and blast to remove the concrete to about ten feet below grade, cut off exposed rebar, and backfill with subsoil and topsoil. Farm right over the buried hulks. Now, those patches may be slightly less productive, for groundwater reasons, but at least you can run a seeder or combine in a straight line again.

That's exactly right. And no one invests in just one startup fund, either, they invest in 10 of them, so if each has 30 investments, the investors have tiny interests in 300 companies. Most of the 300 are going to fail, but a few will be unicorns.

What AOP says is the most efficient demo. Concrete though, in general, if you do not care to be gentle with it is quite vulnerable to slow moving explosive charges. In AF civil engineering, we used to do such things in practicing denial of structures, air strips, etc. for bugging out of an air base. A particular fertilizer is involved along with another ingredient which makes a quite effective concrete disassembler that is cheaper and easier to employ than the highly regulated stuff.
Even the windmill blades are disposable if you burn them for energy which is about the most effective way to recapture the carbon energy from plastics/resins.

Posted by: Helena Handbasket at May 16, 2025 11:33 AM (Vqx30)
Other power projects essentially compete on production price with taxpayers. Many lose, and the rest cut all expenses to the minimum to stay in business. Keeping excess capacity is discouraged by market forces, so the grid becomes unstable at high demand.
I’ve seen reports that wind farms have no legal restoration obligations, so when they’re done, the operators can just leave them. The blades go straight to landfill, because nothing about them is recyclable. I’ve also seen projections that, as the wind turbines crowd out unsubsidized generators, they can’t keep the grid frequency stable. I can’t find that on line now, so maybe it’s not as bad as expected.

It even worked with wind farms for a while. You modeled the subsidy as a revenue stream or as a tax cost reduction, and especially if there was an agreement with the local utility, it was absolutely possible to put a number on it.
Then two things happened that completely blew rationality out of the water: first, so much cheap capital flooded the market that discount rates went to very, very low numbers, and second, there was so much demand to own a renewable asset that the market value disconnected from the cash flow. For the last 15 years or so, the owners of renewables, if they are rational business people, own them to flip them. At the end of the game of musical chairs, someone is going to hold an asset worth a lot less than he paid for it, but in the meantime lots of people are making lots of money.

‘ the valuations given to tech companies is many multiples higher than for industrial products. Not always logical but that's what it is.’
That sounds a bit like those tech company valuations are artificially inflated.
Posted by: Dr. Claw
For a long while, markets predicted outsized profits for FAANG and even created tech fund options for investors, 401k, and pension plans. Now those have fallen to earth to chase the next big thing--AI. Nvidia, for example got to the point where it was some ridiculous percentage of the total value stock index. IIRC something like 10 percent or so of the S&P 500 which was ridiculous on its face. AMD is worth more than Intel for example due to AMD moving into second place in the AI chip market while Intel's flopped.
Even now, the top eight listings in the S&P 500 valuation are tech firms and those eight firms are about one third of the S&P 500 total valuation. Berkshire Hathaway, by contrast is number 9 with its more conventional portfolio.

The seacoast area of NH is also awash in craft/micro breweries. So many of them are locked into doing just IPAs or just sours. The few diverse ones seem to have the staying power.
Bigger players like SmuttyNose are consolidating - not a good sign. Red Hook had a good local presence in Portsmouth. Budweiser owns them and they pretty much shut the place down recently after they moved Red Hook out west (losing all the local taps) and moving the Cisco Brewery brand in.

Yes. Just like buying a new EV is less efficient than buying a 90's to 00's era gasoline powered car if you consider the total carbon output required. Forget the tipping point nowadays but at some point if you go back in years, an older gasoline powered car is more ecologically efficient than a new EV in total energy consumed and environmental impact of mining, mfg, etc.
But hard to claim virtue from the neighbors if you are driving an old car in your wealthy neighborhood.

The bigger the firm and the more widespread its shares are, then percentage wise you are simply not going to be generating the percentage returns that you did in the past for investors. So, they traipse off for the next big thing.
Chasing the 'hot' values relies on momentum trading to whatever you think the market WILL want, not boring fundamentals of P/E. But brokers, etc. encourage such bad practices because they make their money from churn, not servicing clients well with their advice.

However ... every offshore oil well has an escrow account to pay for its eventual decommissioning and removal. There's a lot of work being done in the Gulf of Mexico to remove dead oil rigs: if a company can remove the rig for less than what's in the escrow account, it gets to keep the remainder as clear profit. I don't know if wind turbines also have escrow accounts. If they don't, they should.

She got into the political game by endorsing Harris--which no one forced her to do. So she became fair game for Trump to be needled.
I personally find her tiresome and having minimal talents (other than her business sense in grabbing money from her fans) like most of the twits in our infotainment industries.
She is less tiresome than the outdated and decrepit 'Boss' Springsteen who popped up in London for a concert and bravely spoke 'truth' to power the other day. But that is not saying much.
Good news is that AI music is likely to carve a huge chunk out of the repetitive crap served up as music nowadays making the next 'star' to be a hideous borg AI/Internet Influencer meld.

Politics is a contact sport and if you come out as a celeb to endorse someone, you get hit.
Ask Trump endorsers in infotainment how they have been affected business wise by endorsing Trump. Far worse than mild tweets issued by Trump. And the Dems have also singled out average citizens for the crime of simply supporting Republicans or Trump.

Her moment may have passed peak I think. It hasn't helped that her 'live' concerts are actually a hybrid of live, pitch correction on the fly, and recorded vocals. See Wings of Pegasus Fil YT for that analysis which is all the dude basically does.
Any singer, just like other countless music 'stars' that were so hot once fade as the next generations want someone new more their age and singing about their interests.
When Tay Tay hits Vegas for a long stay, then she has become a nostalgia act like the rest of faded stars in residence there.

In 2024 25% of all US electricity. Came from renewables. Coal is down to 15% and dropping every year. Renewables in USA should reach 33% by 2031
And that idiot driving through the Loire Valley????Loire Valley has a total of 23 turbines
25 years ago there were only 2500 turbines in USA. They are now obsolete. Many non functional. There are now 75000 mostly in red states that seem to live them levelizred costs for solar and wind are lower than any other

Joseph Hirsch Compared to yesterday's dreck, this is a competent portrayal. What the point of the art is a different issue, and I do not have high hopes for an answer that isn't a hodgepodge of socialist babble and anti-capitalist nonsense. Yeah...the artist was a communist sympathizer. But at least he could paint!

But it's incredible that I was seeing a wire, almost thinking that was a hair or something that got on the painting and then my brain went, "no dummy that's a cord, remember?". I didn't get a cell until later 00s, more than 60% of my life has been landlines. But I completely forgot they existed.

Wow. I still have a landline. Got one cordless phone with voice mail and one vintage corded rotary dial phone. That's the only one that rings. Ringer turned off on cordless. Yes, the rotary phone works and I have used it. It looks great with my mid century lamps that have the two tier lampshades.

I think it was more to get out from under Martin's Weaponization of Government taskforce. Comey will claim bias in the DoJ coming after him.
I read the other day that apparently Comey approved something like a 15 million buck contract to a company he owned while FBI chief. Dunno if that is true but his activities bear scrutiny even before he became FBI chief. HSBC 2012 money laundering scandal for example that he was hired to squash. Part of that money laundering was for the Mexican drug cartels fwiw.

The last time I looked at the numbers which is years ago now, most welfare recipients were off welfare in a couple of years but 10% or so are lifers and often then have kids who follow them as lifers.
Note these are not mentally/physically disabled people (SSDI is a whole different set of problems) but women that choose not to work.

He'd claim that anyway though.
I saw an item earlier in the week that Soros believes the path for the Democrats to establish permanent control of the US was now clear because of Ed Martin's nomination being withdrawn. I think that means someone *really* needs to do a forensic audit of Thom Tillis.

Like anything else, it becomes a culture first and then a trap to doing much with one's life by giving easy excuses not do much of anything worthwhile.
Every experiment with simply giving people money for existence demonstrates the same pathology which is why so many of the kids of the wealthy or even upper class are screwed up.

In 2005, Shawn Upshaw Brown, a woman with whom Cosby admitted to having an extramarital affair in the 1970s, claimed in the National Enquirer that Cosby drugged and raped her the last time the two were together sexually.
Why would you voluntarily be alone and taking drinks from someone after he drugged and raped you the first time?

I assume, maybe wrongly, Hirsch was a spoiled brat who lived a good life even during the 1930s & 40s, i.e.,
Wikipedia: In the late 1930s, Hirsch worked in Philadelphia as an artist in the easel painting division of the Works Project Administration.[1] He painted murals for the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America Office Building at 2113-27 South Street; for the Family Court Building at 1801 Vine Street; and for the Benjamin Franklin High School at Broad & Green Streets (now demolished).[3])
In the 1940s, 1942–1943, he was embedded as an artist/war correspondent with naval airmen in Florida, then with the U.S. Navy Medical Corps in the South Pacific.
(*Note: In 1942, the Works Project Administration played a key role in both building and staffing internment camps to incarcerate Japanese Americans.) Wikipedia, too
"In my painting I want to castigate the things I hate and paint monuments to what I feel is noble. — Joseph Hirsch[8]"
Guilty conscience of his good life? But just typical of the lefties, too. 🤷♀️

I purposely did not get approved for Section 8, which this woman was on. She bragged to me about how great it was because she loves getting discounts. She was also working with her 20-year old daughter to get signed up so she could get it, too.
Bragging, to my face, about taking money out of my pocket.

Technically TANF which replaced AFDC as a primary welfare program does have a limit of 5 years.
But in effect, states were allowed to waiver powers for various reasons. Now the waivers during the Obammy years and later have essentially inverted the distribution where more recipients are waivered than comply with the statutory requirement.
Foodstamps is a different program, Medicaid has its own rules, as does Housing assistance.

But still the expected inflation by Americans is at 7.3%. That’s what people think it will be over the next year. It’s the highest level since the 80s. University of Michigan takes. A survey every month and has been since the 70s.
The reason of course is daily headlines screaming about it. As much as alternative media and podcasts and what have you, are a powerful force in media, CNN and NYT still drive the narratives.

The Morning Report — 5/ 16 /25
Buzz Patterson, a retired Air Force pilot, White House military aide, and carrier of the nuclear football, has stepped in to inject a dose of reality—and firsthand experience—into the conversation. While critics scramble to paint the move as some kind of scandal involving President Trump, Patterson makes clear this is nothing new or scandalous, and absolutely nothing that warrants the breathless outrage. “I’m going to try one last time,” Patterson began in a post on X. “The Qatar B-747 was built in the US by Boeing. They are offering a newer 747 to replace one of the two current AF-1s that have been flying for 40 years. Which are tired and need to be replaced.” That last point is key. The current Air Force One planes are aging relics that first entered service when Ronald Reagan was in the White House. Replacing them has been a long, slow, and—thanks to bureaucratic delays—frustrating process. Patterson, who served as a military aide during the Clinton administration and has flown on Air Force One over a hundred times, says the Qatar aircraft would simply help fill the gap until Boeing completes new replacements—something that won’t happen for years.No wonder the Democrat/Left is shrieking its lungs out about this. The average American is paying more attention to who and what the Dems are pushing and defending, that is criminal illegal alien invaders that are murdering and raping their way across America while sacking the US treasury in the process.
House Republicans are moving to block an estimated 1.4 million illegal aliens from receiving American taxpayer-funded Medicaid as Democrats struggle to message their support for the unpopular position. The House Energy and Commerce Committee completed its markup of its portion of the budget reconciliation bill Wednesday morning after an all-night session which included a provision blocking anyone unable to verify citizenship, nationality, or satisfactory immigration status from coverage. The committee projects 1.4 million illegal aliens will be removed from the program due to those requirements. House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) ignored a question from CNN’s Wolf Blitzer about the cost savings from striking illegal aliens from the taxpayer dole Wednesday and if fighting it would “open up” Democrats to attacks that they support tax dollars going to illegal aliens. . . Newsom has moderated some of the radical left-wing stances that sent him to Sacramento but are seen as politically toxic in a national general election — suggesting House Democrats are fighting a battle they may be destined to lose on ensuring taxpayer-funded Medicaid for illegal aliens. Complicating Democrats’ messaging is their repeated calls for decades to rid Medicaid of waste, fraud, and abuse – the very initiative they now insist to loathe.
I don't know where this 1.4 million figure comes from. Biden's four-year border erasure allowed perhaps 10 times that number in if not more, and there were probably close to at least 40 million illegal aliens already here long before he was wheeled in as Obama's puppet. And it doesn't even come close to the fictitious 11 million illegal aliens figure that has been bandied about at least since Reagan was duped into signing the Simpson-Mazzoli amnesty travesty in 1986. The illegal alien invasion that the Democrats have engineered is but one of several albatross carcasses that will or at least has the potential to drag them down, for at least a generation; future election thievery and GOP incompetence/mlfeasance/collaboration notwithstanding.
the reality is that the Democrat Party is far beyond distressed. As a functioning political entity, it has no reason for existing beyond opposing Trump, and secondarily Republicans. It is completely devoid of any issues, policies or even philosophies relevant to the majority of Americans. Their top issues are protecting violent illegal aliens and drag queen story hour for kiddos while trashing Martin Luther King’s dream by insisting on hiring people based on skin color. The economy is right there! (It won’t be by the end of the year or before, but it is right now.) Meanwhile, President Trump remains steadfast in his efforts on all fronts. ICE is so overwhelmed trying to remove Biden’s unknown millions of illegals that Trump is doubling down on deportation efforts. On Friday, he ordered the Department of Homeland Security to increase the deportation force of the United States by 20,000 officers. It would be an enormous and needed expansion of immigration enforcement. Details to be ironed out, but also expect him to seek creative ways to house the illegals in various facilities on their way out, because the existing ones are also overwhelmed. Politically speaking, Democrats have ripe targets of opportunity. But with a base of radicals and extremists they insist on playing to, they are resolutely avoiding them. The question is: Can they recover any purpose on behalf of the American people or will they continue to slide into political second class citizenship?
The Democrat Party was, is and always will be ANTI-American, insofar as that all it cares about is the acquisition of absolute power, and so that last last question answers itself. Party politics is one thing, but evil never rests. Speaking of which, other than being indicative of a preening, narcissistic, asshole, I don't think it's the equivalent of a "Telefon" style message to a sleeper cell.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U.S. Secret Service have launched an investigation into an alarming social media post published by former FBI Director James Comey. Former FBI Director James Comey on Thursday shared an image on Instagram that many people saw as an unsubtle threat to President Donald Trump. Comey posted a photo of a rock formation on a sandy beach that spelled out “86 47,” and captioned the post “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.” . . . DHS Secretary Kristi Noem wrote on X that Comey’s post was being viewed as an assassination threat and an appropriate investigation has been launched. “Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey just called for the assassination of @POTUS Trump,” Noem said. “DHS and Secret Service is investigating this threat and will respond appropriately.”Considering, the Left went apeshit about Sarah Palin's "target" imagery, and the fact that James Comey was a co-conspirator in he various and sundry plots to derail Donald Trump's candidacy in 2016 via the Russia Collusion hoax and that the FBI and CIA used foreign and domestic intelligence assets to gin up that smear campaign and that both have been implicated in the use of assassination in their operations (legitimate and otherwise). That President Trump has already been the target of at least two known attempts on his life prior to the 2024 election, Comey to me is a very sick and dangerous threat to our national security and needs to be investigated thoroughly with a view towards imprisonment for a very long time in a Federal prison. 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 weekend.

He realized this is the end of the road for you my friend. His eyes had this deep, just kind of apocalyptic evil to them.” While Jafar did not say anything to him, Gorka said he looked defeated.

I worked on a contract that tested out new air traffic control systems. One of the engineers said that the average time from installation of the equipment in the lab and being cleared for deployment was 10 years due to the amount of testing.
I'm fine with things like that being tested to hell and back but this incident does suggest a new approach is needed.

Apparently, we have Pope Francis refusing to pay for Cardinal Burke's apartment late last year and Cardinal Dolan for asking "why not a US pope now" and being the worldwide dealmaker for the conservative wing of the Catholic faith stepping up as a roadblock and getting the rest of the world on board for a moderate pope vs the progressives from Europe...and getting Europe to fold quickly.
US cardinals all went into the 1st vote and voted together, even though they are across the ideological range...I don't think that's ever happened.

Part of the problem (indirectly referred to at the end of the article) is the pretense that the Bar - and the legal profession in general - are simply private actors. They are not. They are a hybrid, in that they are a private business organization which controls our access to a justice system which is essentially part of the government.
That means that the usual patterns of approach simply don't apply to lawyers. On the one hand, they are not simply private businessmen. OTOH, there are reasons to want them not to be all state employees. Again, the usual rules don't work here.

I wonder if we're truly capable of this sort of hardline common sense. Trump is making great progress in reversing the societally suicidal madness. But we've gotten so soft as a culture, so infested with emotion, ideology and aberrant moral righteousness, hard to imagine sustaining it.

Skeptical? They shouldn't be skeptical of it. They should be absolutely opposed to it based on the Constitution! Especially with the injunctions issue. Limiting nationwide injunctions, especially in this case, would mean unequally applying the law.
I don't know what's wrong with these justices. They don’t even want to defend the judiciary. That stupid airplane should’ve been rejected out of hand too.
the judiciary is our only hope now since we have no heroes in the Republican Congress. The legislative checks and balance is failing.
According to an HBO documentary The Dark Money Game, a majority of the conservative Supreme Court Justices have been corrupted by wealthy benefactors who’ve bought and paid for decisions that benefit their interests and goals.

Our side is far too confident about this, in the long term. It's a way the Left keeps beating us. Conservatives look at the damage they do themselves in today's elections. True enough. But even when they lose, they lay the groundwork for tomorrow's win. Rely on it; in a generation (at most) the notion of opposing "illegal aliens" will be like opposing homosexuals marrying is today.

Putting the Lara Trump interview aside, Tom Elliott’s video is full of deceptively edited clips. The truth is both Jake and I were covering this.
Excerpt from Jake Tapper's personal diary, anytime in 2021 --
Dear Diary: Whew! Busy day today posting sacred screeds on line to bolster my street cred as an ardent defender of veterans. Posing is soooooo hard! 😖😖 Here's a little secret -- just between you and me, mind you -- I saw an aide of Biden texting, "Code Brown! Code Brown!" to someone not in the room with 💕 President Silver Dream 💕 and me. I had NOOOO IDEA what that meant 🤔🤔 until a dense cloud of fecal odor wafted my way from PSD's direction. My keen urinalist sense instantly pieced together the clues 💩💩 and I vowed right there on the spot to disclose this fully -- to you, Dearest Diary! I'm a brave urinalist, I am! Everybody says so, especially that guy who I see all the time in the mirror. His admiring looks at me keep me soldiering on! TTFN, Dearist Diary! 🥰🥰

But illegal aliens--with no legal right to be in America--are given the special privilege to break the law if they are married, if they have a child or if they've not been otherwise recently arrested!

Just last night went to the law school graduate banquet for son; quite proud of him finishing law school at a “prestigious” institution. It was a dinner and celebration and they gave out awards. There was also a speaker… a prof at the law school. And of course (believe it or not)… he couldn’t help himself, he had to talk about the “Maryland dad” who’s been so unjustly shipped off to a maximum security prison in El Salvador without “due process” and how the DOJ lawyer who admitted in court that there had been an “administrative error” had been fired by Pam Bondi…. You see sometimes lawyers have to sacrifice to “ do the right thing”… nauseating
I’ll never understand why Dems are so sad and bothered by a gang member, wife beater, human trafficker being deported. Unbelievably sickening

There's certainly a case for a DoD/FedGov contractor side and a civilian aircraft builder side. They've also got their fingers in a variety of aerospace projects, some private some FedGov. They also provide systems software for a number of civilian/government systems.

Five to 10x that and you might be in the right neighborhood of the actual number.
Credible studies show that some 63% of illegals are on public support, IIRC.
There are, at a minimum, 40 million illegals in this country.
Then 25 million, at the least, on welfare.
Just half of those on Section 8 is still 12 million.
Our citizens suffer, groaning under tax burdens and inflation, ignored by both parties, while illegals live easy and care-free off our government.

What many people still don't realize is just how much of that money came from their tax dollars. All of that money flowing through NGOs and non-profits that was used to pay for things like regime change and mass illegal immigration was also used to payoff those who went along with uniparty policies.

Posted by: Bulg at May 16, 2025 08:45 AM (77rzZ)
AI says:
The term "86" likely originated in the 1930s within the restaurant industry, where it meant that an item was sold out. Its exact etymology is unclear, but it may be related to rhyming slang for "nix" or linked to a speakeasy called Chumley's at 86 Bedford Street in New York City, where patrons were told to leave when police arrived.

Republicans, on their own, have killed several pro 2A bills already before they’ve even gotten a vote. They were going to eliminate all the NFA taxes which have dubious constitutional legitimacy to begin with, and now limited that to the suppresor tax. DoJ has done zero to address any of the overreach. They haven’t even eliminated the unconstitutional firearms records that Biden was digitizing with his ATF. There’s a whole bunch of other stuff that Bondi should be doing and she’s done zero. Trump doesn’t even talk about the 2A anymore and there is a lot more that should be getting done. It’s why the major gun orgs and their members are pissed. They’ve been used again.

Literally nothing has changed for you personally by the passage of that bill.
They neither took away any of your current rights or threatened to.
All they’ve done is given police and retired police the ability to conceal carry in more places.
If you want that for everybody then ask for it, make your case to the politicians and vote accordingly depending on their response.
That’s how the system works.
But instead you want Trump to turn King and just grant you something by decree and then get mad when he won’t do it.
I’m truly confused why some people claim to love the republic but want to turn it into a monarchy just to get a few special interest issues resolved.

Just interesting when a longtime FBI leader's daughter keeps showing up in cases of deviants who known for amassing power in exchange for providing a safe space for the VIPs to get their freak on. Comey's daughter apparently made sure Hunter's name was kept out of the trail of his Chinese business pal, so it would appear she's part of the legal clean-up team for DC snakes out to get Trump.

It would appear, marginally, that Noem has more gumption about doing the job than Bondi does.
Although, in Bondi's defense I will acknowledge that the hunting down and prosecuting of child traffickers and stopping the flow of Fent (which seems to be of primary importance to the DoJ right now) is certainly worthwhile.
And, FWIW, I wouldn't really trust the FBI to investigate one of their own... Comey. But it'd be interesting to have him explain himself to Patel and Bongino.

Yes, former President Donald Trump made remarks suggesting that gun owners don’t vote as much as they should. During a speech at a National Rifle Association convention on May 18, 2024, he said, "Gun owners don't vote. What is that all about?" and encouraged them to turn out in greater numbers.

Here’s an idea. If you don’t think you’ll ever get to my “issue” don’t appeal to me on that issue like you’re going to do something and then when you get elected tell me there’s a lot more important things to do. I’m ok with that. Just be honest and stop pissing down peoples back and trying to tell them it’s raining.

Agreed Marcus.
Trump is a New York businessman and real estate tycoon, he tends to focus on economic issues and deals.
So it's not surprising that he hasn't worked very hard, if at all, on 2A issues. What is surprising, somewhat, is that none of his subordinates that were selected are focused on addressing 2A issues.
Trump promised a great many things in his run-up to the election and courted a lot of interest bases, but has yet to deliver in many areas. Among those would be Epstein files, no tax on tips/overtime, demolishing the department of education, halting military aid to Ukraine and others.
I'm willing to give him time, for now, but soon will be coming the midterms, and if Republicans lose the house or senate, those will become the excuse for feckless inaction.
This is the same bull as the wall. We give them everything they need and they fail.

Those who can't/don't, can apply for a "temporary worker's card" where they waive all defenses to deportation, agree can be removed for any crime, and agree to return to their native country w/in 10 years.

Amazon is about to reduce the royalty rate on paperbacks from 60% to 50% for any book less than $9.99 (USD), which means authors are going to (very likely anyway) raise the prices to $10.00 and above to keep their royalties at 60%. This is due to production costs of paper print.
This won't affect Kindle e-books (for now.)

The Eighties, the first half anyway, had some good stuff. Bonnie Tyler's "Holding Out for a Hero" and Chris DeBurgh's "Don't Pay the Ferryman" are on my music drive too. As you can tell, I like exciting fast songs with a thread of danger: Johnny Rivers' "Secret Agent Man" and not a few Tijuana Brass tunes like "Town Without Pity," "Wade in the Water," and "Treasure of San Miguel" are favorites.

I rarely have trouble falling asleep, which I do within a minute or so, it's staying asleep. I wake up an inordinate number of times during the night and around 4:30 I just can't get back to sleep, so I pack it in and get up. Besides, the early morning hours are my favorites.

Several Sundays ago, I had to attend a later Mass than the 7:00 AM one I usually attend. I went to the 1:00 PM Mass, which follows soon after the 11:00 High Mass.
I got there just after the 11:00 had finished and people were leaving. I went in and to my pleasure the organist was playing Bach's Fugue in A minor, BWV 543 as a recessional. Despite being a member of the parish for nigh on 8 years, I'd never heard the organ before, since the Mass I attend has no music. I don't know if it was kosher, considering Bach was a Lutheran, but no one was ever harmed by listening to Bach.

I actually did some research last night to find out what that dance was all about.
It’s a warrior dance in the Gulf States called the Yowlah or Al-Ayayya (sic?)
It was usually done to celebrate weddings, ceremonies, or war victories.
Which is why the men are displaying thin bamboo sticks, to represent swords or spears.
It’s accompanied by drums, cymbals, etc. for music. And the women are dressed in traditional dresses doing their hair twirling.
It’s apparently a big thing over there as they even have an American Idol type contest for different groups of dancers to see who the best is.
I believe this is probably the only place some of these women can let their hair down in public like this. Although in some Muslim nations it’s perfectly fine for younger, unmarried, girls to show their hair and not wear a veil.
A reporter caught Trump’s three word response to the dance while talking to the host Sheik: “I love it!”
I do too. That was new to me.

Spanning The Globe To Bring You The Constant Variety Of ONTs
Hello Horde! It's Thursday night, welcome to the ONT. Let's start with a meme that escaped from tomorrow's post:
Imagine Finding This In The Attic
Cut-price Magna Carta 'copy' now believed genuine
A manuscript once considered an unofficial copy of Magna Carta is now believed to be a genuine version and ''one of the world's most valuable documents'', according to UK academics.Of course it's at * spit * Harvard. Why couldn't Hillsdale have found a copy?
Harvard Law School paid $27.50 (then about £7) for it in 1946 and for years it has remained tucked away in its library, its true identity unknown. But two medieval history professors have concluded it is an extraordinarily rare and lost original Magna Carta from 1300, in the reign of King Edward I, that could be worth millions. ''This is a fantastic discovery," said Prof David Carpenter from King's College London, who began analysing it after seeing digitised images of it on the US university's website.
The Internet Is For Porn New Bill Would Make All Pornography a Federal Crime in the U.S.
Republican Senator of Utah Mike Lee introduced a bill that would effectively ban porn at the federal level in the United States.The site I use to get around paywalls is down, so I don't have any more than that. Anyone know about this bill? If it passes, but stock in VPN companies. I Was Told That There Would Be No Math Mathematician Finds Solution to One of The Oldest Problems in Algebra
The Interstate Obscenity Definition Act (IODA), introduced by Lee and Illinois Republican Rep. Mary Miller on Thursday, aims to change the Supreme Court’s 1973 “Miller Test” for determining what qualifies as obscene. “Obscenity isn’t protected by the First Amendment, but hazy and unenforceable legal definitions have allowed extreme pornography to saturate American society and reach countless children,” Lee said in a press release. “Our bill updates the legal definition of obscenity for the internet age so this content can be taken down and its peddlers prosecuted.”
As you might expect, understanding how this works isn't easy for the non-algebra geniuses amongst us. Essentially, polynomials are equations that include variables raised to non-negative powers (e.g. x3). When those powers are five or above, that's a higher-degree polynomial. Mathematicians have figured out how to solve lower-degree versions, but it was thought that properly calculating the higher-degree ones was impossible. Before this new research, we've been relying on approximations. Wildberger and Rubine took a new approach to the problem, which is based on Catalan numbers. These numbers are used in advanced number counting and arrangements, including counting how many ways polygons can be subdivided into triangles. By extending the idea of Catalan numbers, the researchers were able to demonstrate that they could be used as a basis for solving polynomial equations of any degree. Part of the clever method involved extending polygon counts to other shapes besides triangles.It's beyond me, but I bet there are some of y'all who understand it. Dudes Being Dudes

Will Danielle Smith steer Alberta away from separation, or will this train keep gathering steam?
Alberta's leader told Postmedia this week that many disaffected Albertans see the threat coming from the east, like other Canadians perceive the threat from the south. "As scared as these people are of what Donald Trump is going to do to their economy, that's how scared Albertans are of what the Liberals are going to do to the Alberta economy," Smith said. And just as heightened anti-American feelings have risen broadly — including in Alberta — the separatist movement is aiming to transform the long-brewing anti-Ottawa sentiment into an anti-Canada sentiment.I don't know if Alberta could make it as a stand alone country, but as the 51st state? It would be nice to be a fan of an American hockey team.
These People Are Insane Three siblings rescued from house of horrors after ‘COVID syndrome’ parents kept them locked inside since 2021
Three children were dramatically rescued from a COVID lockdown house of horrors after being forced for years to stay inside and wear face masks long after pandemic restrictions ended. The siblings — 8-year-old twins and a 10-year-old — were finally freed from the home in Oviedo in Spain’s northwest on Monday after being locked inside since 2021, local outlet El Comercio reported. “As soon as we got them out, all three children began to breathe deeply, as if they had never been outside before,” an investigator said.Child abuse, nothing but. High On Life Brazilian Psychedelic Plant Emerges as Potential Depression Treatment
Harrowing photos published by Spanish media showed the kids, who are German, emerging from the home wearing face masks.
Immediately after stepping outside, cops said, the children appeared to be amazed and went to touch the grass.
Long used in Indigenous Brazilian rituals, the jurema preta plant, which contains a potent psychedelic, is gaining ground as a potential treatment for depression. At street stalls where medicinal herbs are sold, customers can buy the plant's root which contains dimethyltryptamine (DMT), a hallucinogenic substance that researchers say could be used to alleviate symptoms. Following instructions he found on the internet, Guaracy Carvajal extracted DMT at home in 2016 from roots he bought on the street. The 31-year-old software programmer, who had tried various treatment for chronic depression he has suffered since adolescence, said the drug makes it "feel like you've solved something in your life."I dunno. If it helps folks with depression, that would be a boon for mankind.

We have to ban porn after we’ve re-Christianized the country and gotten rid of the commies.
Posted by: Disinterested FDA Director at May 15, 2025 10:12 PM (l3YAf)
The Canadian singer-songwriter began writing Blurring Time in 2021 as a way to process questions about his gender identity. Once he decided to transition, he recorded the tracks in his pre-testosterone voice and again after his voice deepened, harmonizing with the past version of himself.
Blurring Time puts words to a trans experience rarely represented in the media, of the vulnerability of facing the unknown in the quest to live authentically. It resonated with fans, and Larsen began to plan his headlining tour, with dates in New York, Boston, Los Angeles and San Francisco, among other U.S. cities.
...
The policy states that USCIS only recognizes two “biological sexes, male and female,” as assigned at birth. After seeking legal advice, Larsen, who had already changed his gender marker on his passport, came to the conclusion that he had no choice but to cancel his tour.

Best I could gather - it's in the PDF #9 Eisenstein's Example theorem 11 - listing out those monster power-series, and solving them, is more of a pain in the ass than just feeding the quintic itself and its derivative into the Newton Raphson iterator.
Eisenstein's quintic, by the way, is just -t+x+x^5=0. Lagrange would have coefficients on just about all the x's here.
So: academic interest, impractical for astronomy or pretty much anywhere else you need a quintic or above.

I'm emotionally exhausted and will read tomorrow.
I was supposed to go to the lawyer's tomorrow, sign a mortgage with my brother and work to pay him off in a year for the house. But he's jacking me around and wants to be paid off now.
I took care of my parents for 14 years. I haven't left the house overnight in 9.5 years. I never wanted anything more than 50% . I figured Steve and I would figure something out. Conservatives are so fucking gullible.
He already got $100,000 settled quickly. There was $500,000 in metals we dug up..... Half his.No problem.There's $90,000 in the bank he gets the minute my living situation is solved.
I wanted a year to get my life together. I've been a caregiver forever. I deserve one one freaking year.
His cunt wife apparently wants me to buy him out immediately. Fuck her. Steve says he can't hold a mortgage for a year or she'll divorce him. I'm not married, but threatening divorce is a line you NEVER cross.
There's $90,000 I am ready to release to him tomorrow.. Another $10,000 immediately paid on the principal, $1500 a month and I'll pay him out next June 30th, even it is with the precious
metals.

My dad's estate was pretty simple and it was still stressful dealing with it. I knew my sibs weren't going to get ugly about things, but I had to battle plenty of resentment of having to deal with that shit as the 'reward' for taking care of dad. That was just sensible since both sibs live in different states and the estate was not big or messy enough to need to hire a lawyer to deal with it, but I still resented having to do that last bit of grunt work.

___________________________
I read the Clarity Law that dictates what is necessary for a secession of a province. In short, the law should be called the Imprecision Law. Those bastards in Ottawa purposefully were vague in defining the terms. The House of Commons stated that the people of the province must show a "clear majority" (undefined) and a "clear will of the people" (undefined).
Which means they will define those terms to benefit themselves. Now, Alberta would, obviously and correctly, state a majority is anything above 50%. Which means there will be an impasse as Ottawa will, no doubt, state that "clear majority" means something else entirely. That means Court involvement simultaneous with negotiation of departure requirements. I hate to say it, but I suspect Ottawa will offer up a deal of Alberta continuing to pay into Canada's coffers well after any departure date.
The goal will be two-fold. Continued revenue and stalling to make the whole effort continuously unappetizing.

Yep, you'd be hard-pressed to get it done any faster than a year, even for the simplest estate. In my (and your) state you've got the delay before the court even appoints the personal representative, then the four months of publication of notices to creditors, then dealing with any creditors that do show up, then disposing of any personal property and real estate (which can take an indefinite amount of time), then after all that crap is done, filing a tax return for the state.
Couple that with the fact that in Alaska the decedent may be entitled to the next year's PFD if he or she died after June 30, and it could be that it's not even possible to settle it in a year.
I'm involved in two right now. The simple one is going to total a year and half minimum. The complicated one has dragged on for four years now.

If what Mike Lee has in store at the federal level is what has passed at the state level, then it is merely a positive age identification law, which forces pornography distributors to obtain names and government issued IDs from users as well as opening up pornography distributors to lawsuits should underage users access their product.
Because most pornography consumers don't want identify themselves and because most pornographic sites rely on a sketchy "check box if you are over 18" age verification process, most pornography distribution sites simply shut down their web access in states that pass these laws.
It's pretty sound law. We wouldn't allow bars to merely have a screen that says "Must be 21 to drink alcohol. Are you 21 Yes/No" to verify age, nor should the process be that simple for porn which is as harmful, if not more so, to society.
The state I live in recently passed this initiative, but a female Jewish judge put a TRO on it until the state appeals it, probably because all the big 3 porn sites are owned by Jews, including PornHub which is owned by a Rabbi.

My dad's estate was pretty simple and it was still stressful dealing with it. I knew my sibs weren't going to get ugly about things, but I had to battle plenty of resentment of having to deal with that shit as the 'reward' for taking care of dad. That was just sensible since both sibs live in different states and the estate was not big or messy enough to need to hire a lawyer to deal with it, but I still resented having to do that last bit of grunt work.

I never expected any of this.
Despite being caregiver, I didn't want more than 50%. But I didn't know it would be like this.
Mom, Dad and I had no unexpressed thoughts. 88 years old. 90 years old.
Dad and I were actually walking down the street when he was 90. He told me how lucky Mom and him were there that I was taking care of them.
He was worried about where I would live after they passed.
I told him I was a smart guy, Steve and I would figure something out and I would be good.

U.S. measure basically is Imperial Measure. Feet, inches, miles, pints, quarts, gallons, Fahrenheit degrees. Canadian and U.S. vary in size of pint, quart, and gallon. Stones, and hundredweights are obsolete, many decades gone by.
I would have Alberta adopt U.S. measure as a matter of convenience.

>> Stones, and hundredweights are obsolete, many decades gone by.
I don’t know if stone were ever used in the U.S.
One ton is 20 hundredweight. In America a hundredweight is 100 lbs (sensible, patriotic), so a ton is 2000 lbs.
In UKistan and colonies, a hundredweight is 112 lbs (insanity, wickedness) and a ton is 2240 lbs.

Internet tells me that" Why is an imperial ton 2240 lbs?
A long ton is defined as exactly 2,240 pounds. The long ton arises from the traditional British measurement system: A long ton is 20 long hundredweight (cwt), each of which is 8 stone (1 stone = 14 pounds). Thus, a long ton is 20 × 8 × 14 lb = 2,240 lb"
Okaaay, that makes no sense. The Brits must have been drunk when they declared that A hundred weight is 8 time our 'stone' measurement rather than 100 times our pound measurement.
The metric ton at least makes sense as 100 Kilograms.

So if Alberta does vote for independence and it ignores the Canuck Reich's demand that the natives have to vote for it too I suspect the plan is to send their paltry military to Alberta specifically to cause an incident that brings in the US to then claim the US is militarily annexing part of Canada...

I think Canada would have a hard time getting the military to use force against Alberta. As I said the other night, if that were to happen, Alberta should ask Trump to invoke the Monroe Doctrine, and come to Alberta's rescue. Because Carney and his Liberals are not Canadian, but WEF globalists. Overseas imperialists.

My brother is a cheap bastard. And going through the court system when I'm already willing to deal, there's $90,000 I'm willing to release to him, $10,0000 immediate payment and I'll figure out a way to pay him out in a year
And I have enough metals to pay him off.
But I want a year.
He can through the court system. I want a year to get my life together. He can spend thousands trying to force a sale, which if he gives me a year, I'll buy him out.

1. Comic opera theater as a passel of Russian Deputy Ministers arrived in Istanbul for peace talks today, only to have Zelensky and company spend the day in Ankara striking heroic poses for the Western media. Perhaps tomorrow the Ukrainians will bother to show up.
2. After several days of startling advances, the Russians have been slowed in a few sectors as they approach anti-tank barriers set up at the borders of the oblast (province). This may allow the Russians to shelter before the barriers, which the Ukrainian s can't cross either, and divert troops to consolidating territory and collapsing a few pockets.

170
I read the Clarity Law that dictates what is necessary for a secession of a province. In short, the law should be called the Imprecision Law. Those bastards in Ottawa purposefully were vague in defining the terms. The House of Commons stated that the people of the province must show a "clear majority" (undefined) and a "clear will of the people" (undefined).
Which means they will define those terms to benefit themselves. Now, Alberta would, obviously and correctly, state a majority is anything above 50%. Which means there will be an impasse as Ottawa will, no doubt, state that "clear majority" means something else entirely. That means Court involvement simultaneous with negotiation of departure requirements. I hate to say it, but I suspect Ottawa will offer up a deal of Alberta continuing to pay into Canada's coffers well after any departure date.

I got interested in how in Britain, a "hundredweight" became 112 lbs. Ultimately, it was the wool trade.
There was a concept of a "long hundred", 120, or six score, which is 6*20 = 12*10. This was not used for weights, but for item counts. Somehow in the wool trade, that "long hundred" as a count of some quantity of wool, set the weight standard as a "long hundred's" weight, which was ultimately defined as 112 lbs.

60 and 120 are "superior highly composite numbers" (you can look that up, the precise definition is complex), which have a hell of a lot of integer divisors. This is why 60 became the basis for angular divisions. 120, or "long hundred" was used for the same reason.
12, 60, 120, and 360 are all these superior numbers.

Bullshit.
When my MIL, whom I adored, was in the midst of an inheritance fight with her half her siblings, she often cornered me after Thor and I would go visit his cousins to ask if the sisters she was fighting with were talking about her behind her back.
I told her that the only negative thing I had ever heard about anyone in her family had come from her mouth, and that I didn't care to hear anything else, about anyone else, unless it was pleasant.

Those are 5/30 questions. I'm sure there will be a tweaking to existing meds and maybe something new (oh joy!).
But I was also told when my journey started 20 years ago that eventually my heart will no longer be viable due to scarring/damage. I was told that when that happens, it's time for a transplant. They won't do those, though, unless one is on death's door, which I'm (technically) not.
So the game plan, with the ICD and the meds, was to keep me stable for as long as possible. That's been the case so far. Maybe there's something they can do or maybe this is my new normal. Like I say, I'll find out in a couple of weeks. Can't worry about it 'cause I can't change it. Whatever will be will be, que sera sera. Or something like that. I'm pretty fatalistic at this point.

Hi Tammy!
Thank you so much for responding!
Probate is actually over. There's $260,000 in the bank.
My brother Steve wanted to come over immediately to take out his share. I mentioned the house. He said he didn't want to hold a mortgage and I told him no money was going to be released until my living situation is resolved.
The lawyer told him the best situation was if I bought him out. Sure.I just want a year to get my life together
Steve's sub human bitch wife wants everything now
They already got 100 grand, dug up their 250 in metals and if we can agree on the house, I'll release $90,000 to him

Yeh, the smell is definitely there.
However, in this case, the fact is technically correct. See this conversation I had with Grok:
https://tinyurl.com/3ujw6hzm
Technically he is a rabbi. Lots of people get valid ordinations as rabbis. It it mainly a knowledge test. I know lots of people who are ordained but never officiated as rabbis in their lives.
People like that who use or promote the title on anything other than a job resume are always suspicious in my mind. I do not see Friedman flaunting his title. It is mentioned in the last paragraph on his page at ECP's website:
https://tinyurl.com/bdz3aybt
Every one of the non-officiating rabbis I know or the ones who have left the rabbinate for another livelihood altogether, do not use their title on a daily basis. So far as I see, Friedman is no different in that respect.
With all that being said, this just looks like another case of a law office taking on the defense of the ugliest of clients to make a profit.

Right. The dude's own Time Magazine article says the guy has never worked as a rabbi.
"Even before his ordination in Jerusalem, however, he knew he wasn’t going to be a rabbi. "I didn't want to be ministering to people," he says. "If I wasn't buying what I was selling, no one else would buy it either." He decided instead to go to law school..."
I also found his "Unless Time Magazine is lying to us..." bit highly amusing.
When, in its entire publication history, has Time Magazine NOT lied to us?
It's been a leftist propaganda rag since Day One.

The issue isn't whether they were infallible. The issue is about the original understanding of the text they ratified. That text certainly didn't bar outlawing obscenity, and the understanding of obscenity wasn't anywhere as near narrow as it has become in contemporary law. If you want a different constitution, you should have to amend it, not get nine (five really) judges to reinterpret it to what they would have preferred the text to say. Pretending a right to porn is enshrines in the constitution is no different than pretending it prohibits criminalizing homosexuality and mandates the legality of gay marriage. There's no point in having a written document if you're going to adopt that kind of living constitutionalism.

Sorry you're going thru the Estate Troubles.
I'm rep of my Dad's estate (Mom long gone) and Dad had previously-- couple months before he died-- signed over a vacation property to older bro that was *supposed to be* shared. My other bro & I both witnessed him PROMISING Dad that he would share, just like when Dad owned it. Everybody had a key.
Oh, no-- bro decided *he* would not only dictate/severely limit everyone else's use of that property, but prevent entirely and he promptly changed the locks as soon as Dad died.
I had no trouble getting bro to sign an Estate Resolution Agreement (ALL us kids had to sign) that a-hole bro would receive nothing further from the estate. Now he can feel *justified* in keeping us out, but at least we don't have to give him a share of the house proceeds...
Ugh.

Posted by: Mike Armstrong at May 16, 2025 03:02 AM (Dob0+)
Since Dad "quitclaimed" the property to him, the Cost Basis is what Mom & Dad originally paid. If Dad had simply let it go into the Estate, the Cost Basis would've been "current market value" at the time Dad passed...
In short: If bro ever decides to sell, he will get totally screwed on capital gain tax.

Nice. It's on the other side of town from me so I can't see it from my place. But it was always the landmark when returning from the sea.

Honestly, a lot of places don't want single officer patrols with any gender, but women can be especially vulnerable against men or groups of men.

Scogg you aren't defensive about anyone other yourself and Gen Z.
Of course Trump isn't infallible. He does stuff all the time I don't agree with but he mostly gets the big stuff right. And just because you come up with a stupid hot take I am not bound to agree with you.
For the last 4 decades all we have done as a country is bombs and war in the Middle East and we got nothing but death and debt. Trump is the first to try a different way, deals. And it is working. The Abraham Accords worked when all the experts said they wouldn't and hopefully the Saudis will join soon.
The goal is to unite the ME in prosperity not war and box out China. It's not perpetual war. Iran today is a result of more failed US foreign policy. Isolating them and taking away their money if they don't play nice is a much better strategy than constant war.

Well the alternative is war with Iran and total decoupling and possibly a war over Taiwan from China.
If that's the way things are going and it's unstoppable, then it's best to try and show you were working towards legitimate deals before ultimately having to pull the trigger.
Trump is not a warmonger, he's a tough & shrewed deal-maker.
He wants peace, because war is bad for business.
It's that simple, and a lot of the world can respect that compared to the sugar-coated bullshit or bullets & bombs they've gotten from the west over the past three decades.

And that's the man's best quality - and also the lesson I've taken out of the entire affair.
He actually tried, and it turns out that's over half the battle in DC. You have to at least try. The Bushes never did. Reagan really gave it more than a token effort for all his talk.
The problem is, he's been the only one in my lifetime to try. And he might indeed be the last.

It’s great he wants peace with Iran. I want $10M to appear in my bank account. Neither is happening. Because both things are an impossibility. The only way “peace” happens is a revolution in Iran to get rid of the mullahs. Can Trump facilitate that? Sure. That’s what the fucking CIA was once all about.
But signing a peace of paper? That’ll be worth as much as Chamberlain’s “peace” with Hitler was.

Iran is not an easy problem to solve.
If it was, Reagan would've done it around 1986 or Bush in 2005 when they were puffing their chests high on the fumes from all of their windfall oil wealth with oil at well over $100 a barrel and going on a nuclear buying spree.
I already stated that the correct play is always to attempt a deal before hostilities commence if for no other reason to be able to point to the deal being broken before the first shots are fired.
Trump has stated numerous times that Iran can never be allowed to have nuclear weapons.
So why don't you allow him the courtesy to see what he can do diplomatically, before you get your wish and we risk a nuclear exchange in the Middle East, with the likely first target being Tel Aviv?

Yet he wants a strong-as-hell military. To deter nations or crazy groups attacking us, destroying stuff and killing American troops and civilians. And if deterrence doesn't work to stop some nutjobs, to kick-ass and take names as swiftly as possible with extremely low or no American loss of life.
The long-entrenched post-WW2 military and diplomatic interests h@te him. He's working hard to end their corrupt money-making and destruction games.

Sad to say, boys rarely are good house guests. Miklos was, briefly, because he was in training to be a house toy boy at the Double Wide. Impossible to house train.
Had to send him over to Marleen for a while.
It's all good now.
He learns, but ain't the smartest I've dealt with. Responds to Treats and Rewards pretty good though.

Axios: "Hard Data Suggests Tariff-Driven Inflation and Recession Fears May be Overblown"
"Nevermind."
Hard data suggests tariff-driven inflation and recession fears may be overblownWalmart is particularly dependent on China for Cheap Plastic from China. I do enjoy how they admit the facts momentarily, only to immediately undermine the facts with more spin and more premonitions of doom.
With major indicators from April -- the month of peak tariff uncertainty -- now in, none show the kinds of recessionary or inflationary conditions implied by business and consumer surveys. Why it matters: Warnings and anecdotes are taking on greater importance as signs of how tariffs are working their way through the economy. The big picture: New data out Thursday showed steady retail sales and a surprising drop in wholesale prices in April. So far, so good. But also Thursday morning, the country's largest retailer warned that it will not be able to absorb tariff-related price increases -- even considering the trade war pullback announced earlier this week. Walmart, known for its low prices, will pass some of those costs onto the consumer. If Walmart can't hold the line, it's hard to see how other retailers might be able to.
What they're saying: "We're wired for everyday low prices, but the magnitude of these increases is more than any retailer can absorb," Walmart CFO John David Rainey told CNBC on Thursday. "It's more than any supplier can absorb. And so I'm concerned that consumer is going to start seeing higher prices. You'll begin to see that, likely towards the tail end of this month, and then certainly much more in June."Oh, you have Concerns? Your Concerns are: [ ] Noted [ ] Not Noted [X] Ridiculed
It's almost as if business optimism and consumer confidence are spiking under Trump. Axios again attempts to re-establish its predictions of doom by speculating that spending only increased due to people rushing to make purchases before the dreaded tariffs. No doubt, that may be a contributor. But they push aside all other explanations in favor of the negative one that reinforces their prior beliefs. Meanwhile, inflation fell. Axios concedes that falling inflation might disprove their predictions of inflation falling. What a major concession.
By the numbers: Retail sales rose by 0.1% in April, after a massive spending surge that was even stronger than initially reported. The control group, used to calculate personal consumption expenditures in GDP, fell by 0.2%.
... Between the lines: The Producer Price Index, a gauge of wholesale prices, showed little sign of tariff-related price pressures that businesses have warned about. PPI fell by 0.5% in April after a flat reading in March, rounding out an upbeat inflation snapshot after the index's consumer counterpart released Tuesday. Goods prices were flat last month after falling almost a full percentage point in March. Services prices fell by 0.7%, the biggest drop since the index began in 2009. The bottom line: "There is little evidence, so far, that tariffs are inflationary and instead profit margins are being squeezed. But as Walmart suggested Thursday morning, that is a situation that may not last long," ING chief international economist James Knightley wrote in a note.Politico, too:
Trump tariffs have little impact on prices so far, defying grim forecasts https://t.co/hLzXZc3s9F

now... there needs to be a caveat here. There are two areas that upset and annoy your average American: food and energy. Gas prices and food prices hit people right where they live and it really upsets people when those go up. Most people might be annoyed with how much the cost on their console game or their shaver went up, but that is an annoyance, it doesn't really hurt that badly.
So I think that prices DID to up, but not in places that really are significant to most people.

That haven't really taken effect yet. DUHHHHH....Let's see those numbers in August/Sept
There was a rush by industries to "stock up" ahead of the tariffs so their warehouses were full. But as noted, you won't see the "effects" until the summer. Powell is in that camp noting how "volatile" inflation is (at least with the current circumstances).
You could have fooled me. I just got back from the grocery store and they might as well charge for visiting the steaks you might want to grill because no one can afford them.
beef producers are having fewer calves than usual, keeping prices high. Some producers are choosing to sell of their stock now bc of the high prices, but others worry that doing that will mean it takes longer to replenish their herds.
It is just like when Reagan doctored the Consumer Price Index in the 80's...and the CPI hasn't reflected anything near Reality ever since.

No, CPI got screwed up under Carter and the R's quipped that it was "inflation with the bad things not counted."
Then it got worser under Obama and no longer represents anything real at all.

Theoretically even US made products, including food could increase in price due to Tarriffs. If the machinery bought by farmers is from China and the machine now costs more that cost will be passed on to people who buy the food. Lots of inputs go into farming which I’m sure is largely foreign made, like everything else.

Agree.
Also, food and energy price increases are the most regressive burdens on most families.
For example, many working class people spend more on gasoline (in absolute terms) than wealthier people. As a percentage of income, that is a huge burden.

Machinery wouldn't affect prices instantly at all. And it would be amortized over long periods of product sales. And no nation has a monopoly over farm equipment.
Raw materials is a better chance but again there are always options either the same raw material from another place or a different raw material entirely.

That is exactly right. Some things are have to buys, like gasoline. However most things, well I can wait awhile.
So far I've been making it ok. And I haven't seen any shortages yet. And when you think about it we were getting screwed on the tariffs. Trump was right about that. I don't think Biden even knew what a tariff was. Or didn't care.

Yes. All the current $10K SALT deduction does is encourage every state to tax every eligible payer $10K - because it keeps the money in the state instead of the Federal.
All raising it to $30K does is increase the shitty incentive. The current $10K hasn't broken the nation only because most states haven't taken the bait. Yet.
SALT should not exist.

Predator Prey ratios. Ratio of young to adults showing how fast the young develop. The very close morphology differences from Dinos to modern birds. Dino's living in arctic/antarctic regions where it gets cold.
About the ratios. Looking at the dominant predator in the Permian, Dimetrodon, it is the most numerous species. Predator / Prey number ratios are about 30 percent predators because cold blooded animals burn less energy.
Dino ratios are very similar to mammal ratios across different habitats. Where modern lions have low ratios of predators to prey, the same terrain type in the Jurassic has a very low ratio of Allosaurs.

Axel Springer SE, in turn, is owned by KKR (36%),
Friede Springer (22%), Mathias Döpfner (22%), and CPPIB (13%).
KKR is also known as Kohlberg Kravis Roberts and Co, owing its name to the three partners who started it, Jerome Kohlberg, Henry Kravis, and George Roberts. The latter two are co-CEOs. All three are Jewish.
Friede Springer is the surviving widow of Axel Springer, who's stated mission was "reconciliation of Jews and Germans and support for the vital rights of the State of Israel" to be a leitmotif of his company's journalism. Friede Springer serves on the board of Friends of the Fraenkelufer Synagogue and is the recipient of the the Leo Baeck Prize by the Central Council of Jews in Germany in 2000.
Dopfner, the CEO of Axel Springer, who describes himself as a "non-Jewish Zionist" was named to the executive board by Friede Springer and has contributed news article like "Make Germany More Jewish Again" during his time at the company.
CPPIB, or the Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board, is owned by the Canadian government, and is chaired by Heather Munroe-Blum, wife of Jewish Canadian film-maker Leonard Solomon Blum.

Get rid of them all and lower the rates.
Yes but like how the left keeps wanting to raise taxes despite clearly not caring about revenues when they spend, its not about the money. Its about control. Deductions allow the government to manipulate behavior and spending. Reward what they want, penalize what they do not.

Shocks like tariffs have been seen or at least understood to only partially flow through to consumers. Producers can tend to absorb them and make their operations more efficient to compensate, for example. The split tends to be somewhat competitive also (eg my competitor is only passing along 20% while I'm at 39%...).
So looking forward to all of this...

In 1995 it was roughly the same, in 2005 the GWOT was in full swing so gas was wildly expensive due to the War.
Again, in good economic times, fuel is relatively cheap, as it should be.

So far, a lot of imports from most of the world are at 10%
Obviously the auto & steel/aluminum sectors are more.
Other than that, a lot of the stuff from China are not going to show up in inflation data.
Prices for cheap tools, and computer parts & electronics will go up some.
But much of what's coming in from China are cheap products that nobody really needs right this minute.
They're just stuff you can find on Temu or Shein any time.
A bunch of large volume products like nuts, bolts, screws, electrical connectors, transistors, and other things of that sort will go up in price, but these things are dirt cheap historically. anyhow - especially in bulk. All of those type products can be quickly moved to and manufactured in other nations because it's not really complicated to make and assemble.

Supreme Court Hears Arguments Over Nationwide Universal Injunctions Issued by Lowly District Court Justices Who Keep Electing Themselves President
A lowly district court issued a One Man Universal decision stating that birthright citizenship was the law of the land and always would be, and then issuing various nationwide injunctions purporting to control President Trump's actions.
Trump appealed, but only on one part of the ruling: The arrogance of a lowly district court judge, who only has jurisdiction over the area (the literal jurisdiction) he is seated in, issuing what he purports to be nationwide "universal" injunctions. (An injunction is a judicial order forbidding someone from doing something.) Nationwide injunctions are highly controversial, especially by lowly district court judges, because they are at the very, very bottom of the federal judicial system, and yet they keep arrogating to themselves plenary power to dictate the elected government actions. Even more importantly, district courts only have jurisdiction over the small, um, jurisdiction they're appointed to judge cases in. In other words, a district court judge from southern Massachusetts has the power to rule on cases in southern Massachusetts. But these low-level bureaucrats keep claiming to have nationwide or "universal" jurisdiction, and instead of limiting their rulings' effect to just the jurisdiction they are seated in, they claim they can rule for the entire country. These rulings have long been considered out-of-bounds -- including by Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan, who argued against universal injunctions issued by district courts when she was Obama's Solicitor General. She has a different opinion now, of course.Of course this c*nt did.
Jonathan Turley
@JonathanTurley The Supreme Court argument is now concluded and there was far more heat than light offered inside the courtroom... ...Justices Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh seemed strongly in favor of the Administration. Roberts also made repeated points that seemed to support some of the arguments of the Administration, though it was not clear how he would vote... ...On the left, Kagan repeatedly strived to distinguish this case from her earlier objections to universal injunctions under the Biden Administration. She seemed solidly with Sotomayor and Jackson... ...That leaves Gorsuch and Barrett. Gorsuch has previously expressed criticism of universal injunctions but asked probing questions on both sides. Barrett seemed more accommodating in seeking a way to uphold universal injunctions...
From Ed Morrissey:
...In other words, this could be a nail-biter. I think that the Administration still has an advantage in curtailing universal injunctions. However, I did not come away with the sense of a lock with a majority, particularly given Barrett's questions. I am also unsure how Roberts and Gorsuch will play out on the details. Fortunately, we will likely know within a couple of weeks.
NYT legal reporter Adam Liptak sums this up with fair accuracy:
The justices have been struggling with two contrary impulses. Many are troubled by injunctions issued by individual federal judges that block executive branch initiatives nationwide. But many of them are also troubled by the executive order seeking to ban birthright citizenship and frustrated by the difficulty of reaching the merits, as the Trump administration has only appealed on the first point. New Jersey's lawyer may have offered a middle ground, arguing that this is the rare case in which nationwide relief is needed because it is the only way to grant complete relief to the more than 20 plaintiff states.
@ShipwreckedCrew predicts the justices may split, and uphold the universal injunction only as to the ban of Trump's order reversing so-called "birthright citizenship," but setting up oversight/checks-and-balances for universal injunctions in all other cases. The "wise Latina" Sotomayor kept Asking Statements of the Solicitor General. She would "Ask" a Declaration and then cut off the Solicitor General before he could respond. Even Roberts eventually had enough of her, and interrupted her interrupting to tell her that he actually wanted to hear the Solicitor General's answer to her statement.
Martin Harry
@MartinHarryFL Listening to the birthright citizenship oral argument at the US Supreme Court. Justice Sotomayor continues to be argumentative, ask questions without allowing a response and monopolizes the Court's time. Chief Justice Roberts had had enough and cut her off. Later, he directly contradicts her belief that Supreme Court review takes 4-5 years, even in emergency cases.
Fox:
Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts reined in Justice Sonia Sotomayor during argument over birthright citizenship and nationwide court injunctions on Thursday. Sotomayor dominated questioning for several minutes at the outset of Thursday's argument after taking over from Justice Clarence Thomas. She pressed U.S. Solicitor General John Sauer for President Donald Trump's administration on several points relating to the authority for federal courts to issue nationwide injunctions, often speaking over the lawyer and interrupting him. Sotomayor argued that Trump's order invalidating birthright citizenship violated four Supreme Court precedents, and that it was justified for a federal judge to grant an injunction against such a controversial order. "You are claiming that not just the Supreme Court, that both the Supreme Court and no lower court, can stop an executive from universally violating holdings by this court," Sotomayor said. "We are not claiming that because we're conceding that there could be an appropriate case only in class only," Sauer said. "But I hear that--," Sotomayor said, beginning to interrupt Sauer. "Can I hear the rest of his answer?" Roberts then interjected.
HUGE SMACKDOWN!!! Trump's Solicitor General fact-checked Sotomayor on birthright citizenship so brutally that she started interrupting him constantly.

Meanwhile: Deb Heine at American Greatness says that a judge has rigged a hearing on Trump's tariffs to make sure that the judges hearing it are On the Right Team.
A three-judge panel at the United States Court of International Trade in lower Manhattan heard arguments in the case Tuesday, and reportedly "appeared skeptical" of the president's arguments. If the panel decides that Trump's emergency declaration was unlawful, it would effectively block the president's global tariffs and upend his economic agenda. The chief judge of the United States Court of International Trade is Mark A Barnett, who joined the court in 2013 after a nomination from President Barack Obama. He became chief judge on April 6, 2021. According to the well-placed source, rather than drawing the panel at random, Chief Judge Barnett "fixed" the outcome by selecting three judges whom he knew would "overrule the president" and render his tariffs "null and void."

No it won't. Barrett will side with the other women, because that's what Barrett is going to do the rest of her time on the court - and what she was destined to do when she was appointed. No woman is going to go against the consensus of three other women in any group.
When faced with a 4-4 tie, Roberts will side with the four liberals. Because that's what Roberts does. And he doesn't want to be unpopular in his social circle.

"Derived Citizenship", that is the spawn will have the same status as the parents.
This was actually the case prior to the 19th Amendment. Being a patriarchal society the child citizenship was derived from the father (if known), mother next*, and finally American by default if the child was a 'foundling'.
*Being before the 19th, women who married derived citizenship from the husband. There were standard forms (SF) to resort ecitizenship to women who married foreigners after this knock-on effect from the 19th turned up. That SF was (and may still be) available on-line. It was 25 years ago.

Tariffs (along with taxes, etc.) mainly go to Congress as an Article I, Section 8 power. However, Congress has slowly been handing the reins over to the Executive Branch with numerous Trade Acts.
Did Congress sue the Executive? If not, then the Trade Court is creating a constitutional crisis by arrogating powers to themselves not given under the Constitution or any subsequent law.

We sent our kids to Catholic school even though we are not Catholic, since it was so much better than our public schools.
My wife and I were instantly embraced by the entire parish.
I was later shocked to learn that in 2008, 68% of Catholics voted for Obama.
The Catholics I knew were at least 90% proto-MAGA.
I finally asked a few people about this. Turns out our neighborhood parish is almost certainly the most conservative out of most of the surrounding portion of the state.
Catholics (like everyone else) are not a monolithic group.
I have no problem supporting a Catholic in the future, but be sure to make it a MAGA one!

“Catholic” is a cultural thing. I meet a lot of “Catholics” who haven’t been to Mass in 20 years but still call themselves Catholic.
According to polls, something like 2/3rds of Catholics don’t believe Christ is really present in the Eucharist. But they’re not the ones attending Mass.
Go to a Latin Mass and tell me those kids aren’t conservative.

At best a 5-4 majority will vote to rule birthright citizenship for babies born to illegals on US soil is unconstitutional because this was not the intent of the writers and approvers of the 14th Amendment. But all children born to illegals before the date of the decision are grandfathered as US citizens.
I rate the above as a low probability. I believe a majority will say the 14th means what previous courts said it means.

People just want to live, and sometimes we make bad decision, when left to our own devices (like who we elect). What we expect is a class of people working on our behalf, to help guide us to not do stupid things, politically.
The Constitution called for that. But while we were sleeping, DC and the corporate elites pissed all over the document, and perverted the rule of law.

Unchecked is probably a poor word, because it might lead someone uncharitably to assume that means "uncontrolled" or "undisciplined." What I meant was that as I stated, both men and women have strengths that can go wrong if not balanced and informed by the other.
And in current society... that's not happening with women.

They're presidentially appointed then approved or disapproved by the Senate. It is an inherently political process for one, and you are also generally going to get people who tend more towards statism who work in that arena and who catch the attention of (especially Democrat) presidents.

No, but judges have to be willing to send kids back to a country they’ve never known, knowing that they’ll be exposed to extreme poverty and are more likely to be sexually abused or trafficked, to say nothing of being murdered, in their home country than here in America.

However, that said, the supreme court CAN rule that the lesser federal courts cannot rule in ways that limit or control the three other branches. They cannot overrule actions by the Executive, Legislative, or Judicial branch. Now, that third one is assumed: you cannot overrule a higher court. But it should extend to ALL of the three coequal branches. ONLY the Supreme Court is given the constitutional authority to rule on the other two branches as part of their check and balance operation.

A comical turn would be for Trump to take one of these Judges, sit him down and say "ok you want to be in charge of the government -- lets do it." You want to get someone pulled out of a prison in El Salvador.?
Then make him personally decide on each of the steps in the process and personally do it. No breaks. No help from assistant executives. You go to each step and do it yourself. What do you do when El Salvador says no? Go to war?? Then its 24-7 work orgainizing an invasion with you stuck in the entire process.
That might get some sense into the asshole. Then you fire him for neglecting his job as judge.

Don't be sorry. Tribalization is exactly what this kind of shit leads to. And America, as founded, was the antithesis of that. The only 'tribe' America wants us to belong to is the American tribe. But the Left and its worship of multiculturalism and open borders is destroying that. Intentionally.

I worked on a project in grad school where we could beat the results of the ground penetrating radar by using high-frequency seismic.
Our source was an M2 machine gun mounted facing downwards on the back of a pickup truck. You fired one in the ground to test the seismometer array. You put the next round into the back of the first round, and got a very nice high frequency ping.
The lead professor wrote up a proposal to improve the method using a 20mm cannon, since he knew there was a ton of old military surplus ammo.
The federal government (ATF?) said, "Nope, 50 cal BMG is the largest round you can fire!"

She votes to send abortion back to the states.
OK.
But then she ends up siding with the left on so many other issues.
Like illegal migration, for instance.
She seems to have followed Francis on that issue.
Is she really more of a liberal Catholic that lets the church guide her on moral issues?
Whereas Alito is more of a strict interpretation kind of guy and his faith plays little to no part in his decisions.

Paid Liar Jen Psaki's Ratings Tank
Rachel Maddow has gone back to her one-day-a-week gig, collecting $25 million per year for this tiny amount of "work" like a good socialist, and it's now on the slender shoulders of Ginger Clownwhore Jen Psaki to keep the dying cable channel alive.
It's not looking great.It was a Psaki bomb. Former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki tanked with a key demographic in her new show's second episode -- indicating possible trouble for her future ratings. Her new gig features her show "The Briefing" in MSNBC's prime time slot, at 9 p.m. on Tuesdays through Fridays, while "The Rachel Maddow Show" pivots to only being on air Mondays. "The Briefing" had a strong showing of 1.2 million viewers on Tuesday, with 139,000 viewers in the key demographic of people ages 25 to 54. But viewership quickly dropped Wednesday, with 1 million viewers tuning in -- and just 65,000 people in the coveted demographic tuning in, according to Fox News."The demo" is usually defined as ages 25-54. That kind of a range. People with jobs who can afford to buy stuff, and people who are young enough and callow enough to have their buying choices influenced by advertising. In other words, "the demo" is all of us. We're right in the meat of the demo with our nearly-universal "almost 29" age demographic.
Adweek, a publication which seems left-wing and very pro-MSNBC, spins MSNBC's collapsed ratings as "mixed" and says it's merely experiencing a "slow start" with its new lineup.
For comparison, Fox News' Sean Hannity got 2.64 million viewers on Tuesday at 9 p.m. with 312,000 in the highly desired demographic, while CNN's Kaitlan Collins eked out 468,000 total viewers but scored 75,000 people ages 25 to 54 watching. The former press secretary had left her job at the White House in 2022 to pursue a gig at the liberal outlet, and began hosting "Inside with Jen Psaki" on Sundays in March 2023. ... [M]addow had managed to bring in better numbers when she held the prime spot. The host averaged a total of 1.9 million viewers and 141,000 among viewers aged 25-54, per Fox, meaning that Psaki's Wednesday episode had brought down the number of viewers by a total of 46% and 54% in the important demo.
So MSNBC's ratings fell in all categories by double-digits and that's "mixed"?
MSNBC's new programming lineup finished its first full week, and the numbers were mixed. The network experienced week-to-week declines in total viewers and the Adults 25-54 demo during primetime and total day. MSNBC continued to miss Rachel Maddow's nightly presence as it fell by double-digits in both measured categories during primetime.
Mixed.
Meanwhile, Fox News had 96 of the top 100 cable news telecasts and was the most-watched cable news network during the announcement of Pope Leo XIV's election. ...
MSNBC's primetime lineup averaged 892,000 total viewers and 77,000 A25-54 viewers for declines of -12% and -13%, respectively. During total day, MSNBC averaged 564,000 total viewers and 52,000 demo viewers for respective dips of -2% and -5% in those measured categories. Among all basic cable networks, MSNBC stayed at No. 4 in total viewers and dropped four spots from No. 15 to No. 19 in the demo during primetime. Across total day, it remained at third place in total viewers and remained at No. 13 in the demo.

In all of the above, this is the line that got me. We have got to, as soon as possible, unlearn ourselves of a lot of the crap that was taught to us in High School Econ about the behavior of corporations.
Because they absolutely do not exist to "pursue profits" or "shareholder equity". They exist to pursue whatever agenda they wish. Their corporation is simply a vehicle with which to hoover up money for that pursuit.
Can you imagine any of the Big Three Auto Makers standing back while a Toyota or Honda sold 96 out of 100 compact cars ? Oh wait, yes you can. Because we've watched piss away billions in pursuit of EVs nobody wants, while ignoring the markets everyone demands.

Well their agenda is typically to make money but the hard left has managed to infiltrate a lot of boards and convinced people that they real path to money IS to push the left's agenda.

I think we need to be very careful here. I am as close to a free speech absolutist as can be, but I do still recognize that all freedoms have boundaries of free expression in a functioning society (such as slander).
We have to make sure that any limits on expression are only ones of absolute necessity to civilization, and always be incredibly suspicious of government power. But with the idea of pharmacy ads, I have ALWAYS had serious problems with the idea. Advertising OTC drugs, fine. That's consumer choice. But pharmacy stuff is restricted behind a barrier of expert and trained specialists for a reason.

Sorry, not sorry, I'm not buying the typical "it all used to be better until the Left corrupted it all" trope. Its been this way our entire lives.
For example, the Ford Foundation. Established in the 1930s. By the 1950s they were funding the arts and humanities - not exactly a bastion of conservatism. By the 1960s - they were into contraception as a declared means of population control. By the 70s - loans to Bangladesh.
Look, to steal a line from Ace, know "Muh Corporations" is a big rallying cry for the Old School Right. Like I said, we need to unlearn a lot of the crap we were taught.
Frankly, I don't understand why the Left EVER wanted to limit them. And other than the indoctrination at a young age, I don't know why a free self-governing people ever trusted them.

It is very hard to find someone without face piercings and tats and screeching colored hair, and an attitude that makes them show up late to work or just not show up at all some days because they "aren't feeling it."
Every older generation complains about the younger, and a lot of it is unfair grousing... but I think every single older generation was right at least to some degree. Every new generation something good about the old is lost. Often something good that lacked in the older is added, but all the complaints my parent's generation made about mine were true.

For example, the Ford Foundation. Established in the 1930s. By the 1950s they were funding the arts and humanities - not exactly a bastion of conservatism. By the 1960s - they were into contraception as a declared means of population control. By the 70s - loans to Bangladesh.
Sure, all businesses have always had an agenda in addition to making money. None were entirely without any interest or inclination EXCEPT earnings. But earnings are the purpose of existence and meaning of corporations, and that has never changed.
I have not argued they used to be ideologically pure. I pointed out that they are still driven by the desire for cash, but they have been fooled to think that pushing for the left's agenda IS the way to make cash.

And yes, the target demo thing that entertainment media chases has never made sense to me. Until you hit 30 or older you do NOT have much disposable income. That 24 year old is 100k in debt to their college and often a new family, and even if single they aren't earning very much.
Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at May 15, 2025 05:03 PM (2VST1)
Then its a distinction without a difference. Because I'm not so concerned with the WHY as I am with the WHAT. And my greater point is - they've been fooled, as you say, for so long that the "fooled" part no longer matters anyway. It is what they do. When any person or organization does something for decades - its not a temporary condition. It is what they are.

I highly recommend both movies.

They aren't the failures, their parents are. Kids are a reflection of what they are taught, and it's been all down hill for decades. The Boomers get (rightly) picked on because they broke the chain that tied the present to the past.
If you go back to the beforetimes, you see clear lines of continuity. People married young, had big families, gender roles were accepted and religion dominated public life.
All of that was swept away and we now stumble around the wreckage wondering what can even be done.
To put it another way, you can't tell a generation to bootstrap itself up when they were forbidden to have boots out fear they might kick someone.

Sure, but the thing is we all know from our extensive years of experience that the behavior of companies now is new and different than they used to be.
They used to have an inclination by their founder and corporate culture to back and support certain ideas. Usually charity choices to help with tax breaks, but often just "I like this cause."
That's changed now, they are far worse now. They aren't donating to causes, they are actively promoting them in their advertising and products. They aren't donating to politicians to get a good mood from whoever is elected, they are using their money to promote specific politics. Its far, far more worse and more extreme than it ever was.
Even in the 70s, when Coke would do a hippie ad, it was not specific about leftist causes. The would promote basic anodyne concepts like "peace" and "brotherhood" not "your sister can be your brother" and "homosexuals parading naked on the street is my bag."
And the source of that is not corporate political leaning like it used to be

Yes, and no. Yes, the parents are to blame for their failures but parents only get the kids for a few hours a day. The establishment gets them the other hours, late into the night. Parents cannot compete with this unless they very strongly limit child exposure to leftist entertainment and education (ie home school and strictly limited and monitored screen time).

The parents voted for the school board. They voted for the politicians who tore down our institutions and generally just shrugged it all off.
A big factor in the decline was the collapse of family formation, meaning less people got married and had kids, so they checked out on maintaining the guardrails society needs to hold itself together.
And yes, having been targeted by agents of the state for using the "wrong" pronouns on one of my kids, I know how forlorn that resistance can be.

If you consider recent the 90s. That's when I started seeing women wedged into rolls of authority. Star Trek Voyager anyone ? Also known as Why I'd Space the Captain Myself. I can cite others.
Hollywood has been trying to push narratives as long as I can remember. MASH was all about political statements. Archie Bunker. The only difference was they'd push "just" hard enough not to kill the golden goose.
If that's your defense of Hollywood ? Its pretty weak sauce to me.

The leading edge of Boomers turned 20 in the late 60s, which is when things went off the rails. It's so weird to look at the style of "Breakfast and Tiffany's" when men wore hats and everyone dressed up and New York was neat and safe and realize how close they were to the end of all of that.
And of course it didn't happen all at once, it was a long, slow grind until Boomers became the preponderant demographic, taking over from the fading Silent Generation and dominating Gen X with a massive numerical advantage. Bill Clinton's election symbolized that changing of the guard, and it's crazy how fast morality collapsed.

It was members of the silent generation that gave us the beginning of what we now call the Deep State. Ronald Reagan to be precise.
After Carter demolished much of the operations side of the CIA, Reagan helped found and fund the National Endowment for Democracy. That was one of the very first NGOs and despite its lovely name it was tasked with basically doing what the old CIA operations wing did. That was the beginning of the country being run and manipulated by career bureaucrats and put us where we are today.
I happen to like Reagan and think he did many good things but that was a major clusterfuck of an idea. It's silly to blame any one generation and think they uniquely created all the problems of the world. It's always been a group effort. There are good and bad in every generation, every part of society, and we are all a result of those who came before us. Your generation will get their time in the box.

Kind of. Rather, what it establishes in your mind is that there’s a pill for whatever ails you. Maybe you don’t have plaque psoriasis, but those good folks at Big Pharma are looking out for the people who do.
And then, when your doctor says you need a new $500 /month pill, you’re more receptive. Most doctors these days are pharma salespeople. The ads reinforce that relationship. “Ask your doctor about..”

Don't think too many were hippie marchers. I think the way it worked was there was a generation change between the old cold war leaders and major players and their lower staff. As the Cold War ended the leaders retired, and the lower staff got elevated to the top. But with less practical experience than the old bosses the new wave in the 90s decided it was too much work to change worldviews, so they kept the Russia Bad US Policeman going with an increasingly bad fit and discarded the logistics backing it all up. And our worldview became increasingly divergent from the actual world situation. This peaked in Ukraine where the planning was that one round of sanctions not including oil and gas would cause Russia to collapse. When that did not happen they had no plan for how to get out of it, and still don't. But they want to fight forever with no proxy, no weapons, and no economy to build arms.

Not exactly. He will add the old and soon-to-be-retired plane to his museum. He won't be flying around in it.

I never got carded even when i was a college student. I dated a filipina that was 8 years older than me when I was 26; everyone thought I was older than her. I didn't care; she was smoking hot.
Now I am old (54) and I get the folks at Dunkin Donuts giving me the senior citizens discount without even asking me. I guess i've got the Wilford Brimley thing going on.

House Investigating Whether Pfizer Slow-Rolled Their (Fake) Vaccine Announcement to Further #Rig the Already-"Fortified" 2020 Election
Bob Hoge at RedState quotes the WSJ (a Murdoch-owned paper, as Lyin' Jake Tapper would add):
Lawmakers are investigating whether Pfizer waited to share results of the Covid vaccine in 2020 until after that year's presidential election, based on new allegations that a former Pfizer scientist has said he was part of an effort to "deliberately slow down" the testing, according to a new letter from the House Judiciary Committee. The House panel is seeking information from Pfizer and from the scientist, Philip Dormitzer, after learning he allegedly told colleagues in 2024 at a subsequent job he was worried he would face an investigation of his role in the vaccine's release and asked to be relocated to Canada.

New York University (NYU) is withholding a student’s diploma after he turned his graduation speech into a pro-Palestine rant.
The student allegedly lied about the contents of his speech and instead used his time addressing the graduating class only to condemn the U.S.’s supposed “complicity” in genocide, according to a statement from the school on Wednesday. NYU apologized for the student’s speech and announced that it is pursuing disciplinary action against the speaker.

Not saying they are right, but this is how the news has operated since at least the 70s when I was a kid and first came to understand what they do. The media thinks if they admit to an error they made yesterday, it would be making the news about them, which is bad when convenient.

Yea but it's not that new. My sister's graduation (from a relatively conservative PA college) about 20 years ago was hijacked by some cunting twat who delivered half of her graduation speech in Spanish. Needless to say, the graduates were mostly white and some black, and very few could understand Spanish. I asked how this retard could possibly be valedictorian. The answer was straight-up DEI before there was even a word for it.

When it leaked he called the companies he was working with who lied and told him their new vaccines were ready. The problem is they lied. Their vaccines had failed both safety and efficacy tests.

This is why I will never willingly take any product produced by PFE, especially when there's an appropriate substitute. Trump promised to have something to roll out to the public by Election Day 2020, and he delivered - as usual. A legendary accomplishment*, and Pfizer took that away from Trump just to turn votes away from him.
*as fake as the 'vaccine' was, I maintained at the time - and still today - that it was necessary to get something out to break the cycle of fear that gripped the world at that time. It should never have been made mandatory, however.

If, like me, you're wondering who these two assholes are and what they did:
Collins was Acting Director of the National Intelligence Council, Langan was his Deputy. These two Shits were acting against the President of the United States by deliberately putting out false reports that contradicted the President's positions (namely, Venezuela). In other words, they were pulling the same shit the other "resistors" pulled in the first term.

A couple of years ago I ran across a medical research reviewing one of those zombies movies that were popular in the 10s. The review itself was from before COVID but I saw it after COVIDmania and the introduction of the clot shot mandates.
The premise in the movie was that come globopharma corp had come up with a new cancer miracle drug and rushed it to market with minimal safety testing because hey it stops cancer! And it turns out the midterm side effect of the cancer drug was...zombism. Oopsie!
Anyway the reviewer noted there was no way the "medical establishment" would let a company rush through a drug for mass human consumption without years if not decades of testing. But hey here we were only cancer not something serious like the WuFlu amiright?

They seem to grudgingly concede that nationwide injunctions by a single judge have enough votes and the Court does not like the practice.
But are hanging on the unwieldiness of every person challenging it having to file a case or the difficulty of class certification.
But that's the problem--the Court seems to assume that it is its job to "solve" that.
Rather than--follow the fucking rules and leave any solution to the people where it belongs!
Kagan and Sotomeyor have already admitted they've pre-judged the underlying question--without it being briefed or developed below!
With Wide Latina calling Trump's EO "illegal" several times.
And also sneering several times about how Trump has "lost every case."
ACB looks to be wanting some sort of solution, demanding the S.G. answer more precisely Kagan's Q.
There was an interesting bit where the Court questioned about whether the Executive could ignore their rulings.
Suggesting the Court is close to declaring itself King.
There's going to be enough in the left bloc opinions that will drive a majority of the public against the Court; Judge Dredd will appear constrained in compare.

We know there was a faction that wanted him out - Pelosi and the ones who did kick him out. Problem is they ignored Biden's insurance policy and autopen made sure Kamala would be the nominee.

Goodbye, Morris. We are all gonna miss you. You could be hard on directors, make-up artists, costumers - really anyone with arms or legs - but I know you did it for the ultimate good of the film. The day you wouldn’t come out of your trailer unless we sent in 40 heads of lettuce taught me a powerful lesson: never compromise your art. I will never forget at craft service that time when we split the Three Musketeers bar and you let me have the bigger half. But that’s who you were.
I know your character’s decapitation in the first movie precluded your participation in the sequel, but we all appreciated the fruit basket and the hilarious note. I will miss the sound of your tail sliding through the tall grass, your cold, bumpy skin, but, most of all, I will miss your infectious laugh. Thanks to Mr. Young for taking care of you all these years, and vaya con dios, old friend.

I think it comes from various emails between our elites where they talk about cheese pizza but the context is clear they aren't talking about food. The same people claim Podesta talking about wetworks was no in reference to assassination but uh...something totally not illegal and violent.

The case is simple... but somehow not being made.
The Constitution says that Habeus Corpus can be suspended in times of insurrection or INVASION.
Trump signed an executive order declaring the border situation an invasion... using that exact term. Texas Gov Abbot also sent a Letter, as demanded by the Constitution, saying Texas was being invaded.
These facts are not in dispute. Yet Courts are still yacking about due process...
Note, the Supremes have also set precedent that the Courts should not intervene with Executive Powers during a National Emergency (Covid cases)... which Trump has ALSO declared.

Yeah it was dangerous at first, and I know personally a few otherwise healthy people who died (like OregonMuse, sadly). Almost all of the deaths, by a huge margin were the very elderly and the otherwise very unhealthy. And there are some serious long term effects; my sense of taste changed permanently. My brother Joel never really recovered and finally succumbed to RSV.
It was never as deadly as it was portrayed, and a good 75% or more of the deaths claimed for the Wuhan Flu were not due to that, but it wasn't ever a mild or typical yearly flu.

Billions of reasons.
The subsequent deaths were a bonus we hadn't originally considered.

Congress needs to learn the speed and wide spread direction of attacks on the bad guys. Trump and DOGE are way, way inside the OODA loop. By the time the ponderous enemy gets their refutation story and defense lined up, Trump is off annexing Japan, Elon has found 27 billion of new fraud and waste, and the judges are flummoxed by another path to allow the Executive to do its job.

It did have some success in protecting people from the specific strain it was made for, but not very much and AND AS ONE OF THE MAIN SCIENTISTS WHO DEVELOPED IT REPEATEDLY AND LOUDLY WARNED it weakens people from every other virus making them more likely to catch everything, including other strains of the crud.

No, I think this time it's legit. I think they used an electron microscope with a 4-meter field of view and actually captured super Slo-Mo video of enhanced corona viruses catapulting themselves consistently over 2 meters without any kind of mechanical assistance, and without even breaking a sweat...
...the viruses that is. The researchers all were sweaty, because they were French, presumably
By the way, the six-foot recommendation in the U.S. was derived from original French recommendation of 2 meters. We just rounded that down because saying 6.56 feet seemed cumbersome.

Used to love Pizza Hut the most but the one near my neighborhood screwed it all up so I switched to Dominos.
Luckily, at that time, 2010 or so, Dominos had left behind their old "takes up half the pizza" crust, and their new recipes and different crust styles were awesome.
But Marcos has the best tasting, freshest ingredients for chains around here.
The only other place I get it from is a local guy who's originally from New York. His gets too be way to greasy sometimes for my tastes but otherwise it's excellent.

No, they never would have gotten away with it. Their problem is they don't know how anything works. People, Governments, Science, Economies. The more they win the faster their nations will die.
Look at the EU. They have two layers of deepstate and a conformist populace, but they are so afraid of any opposition that they destroy the credibility of their own system. Even if they get away with it, the people won't work hard and check out and collect their dole. And then the house of cards really topples.

Podesta e-mail investigation. Someone asked "WTF is up with all this talk of pizza?" so others went after other words that were unusual but mentioned often and in weird context.

Now the argument there became "well people who were vaccinated feel more safe to go in public so they are exposed more". And...that's bullshit, the people who weren't afraid to go in public were the people that didn't take the shot either, but when you claim the shot is 100% effective that argument is not persuasive...even as they then started dropping the claimed effectiveness down again and again...

That giant sucking sound that you're about to hear is all the jobs that are about to leave the EU and come here.
For my day job I'm tracking the Deregulatory Efforts that Trump is unleashing here. It's Yuge I tells ya.
Meanwhile the EU persists the other way. It's especially true over Energy. The EU grid is already faltering. Germany is the most exposed.
It's not just jobs moving. What kills you are new jobs that get created elsewhere.

It was proposed as a solution to disease spread by a german doctor during the 1800s I thought. It was never tested. The 6 ft distance was essentially made up. It had no impact on the spread. A private school in the northeast moved the distance to 3 feet and noted no change. The fact of the matter is none of the suggested safe practices made a bit of difference. And a few of them, like mask wearing by the aged, actually created their own respiratory troubles.

Another case in point. A corpse falling off a building rarely lands more than two meters away from the building (in the absence of strong cross winds). So maintaining a three-meter distance from tall buildings offers a good one meter safety margin against being killed by COVID by proxy.

A Proper Pizza Deck is running at 650+.
The instant you drop a cold pizza on it, the temp bottoms out, as the Pizza sears.
It has to be moved to another spot on the deck to finish cooking properly.
This is why a proper Pizzeria has a guy who manages the Oven. Cleaning/brushing and mopping the stone is also required.

Doesn't appear to be working.
As I said the other day this was a colossal own goal. Tapper thought he could make money while deflecting any blame or responsibility for ignoring Biden's obvious mental decline because he's Jake Tapper, ace news man.
All he did was highlight his culpability and hypocrisy and give his critics and even many of his former supporters a massive target for abuse. He made the mistake of believing his own bullshit, that he was so trusted and admired he could blame everyone else and avoid any responsibility, and it completely backfired on him. Now people are lining up and taking a number for their turn to drag him.

Diversity, Which Is Our Strength, Stopped Before It Can Launch a Terrorist Attack at Detroit-Area Army Facility
I'm just loving all of this enriching, ennobling, enstrengthening diversity. Moar please!!!
Dearborn, you say? The Fallujah of Michigan? Very diverse. Very strength.
A former National Guard member from Melvindale, Michigan, near Dearborn, was busted for attempting a mass shooting at a base in nearby Warren, Mich.
Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed Said, 19, was arrested and charged with providing training and materiel to undercover federal agents. Investigators claim the planned attack is related to ISIS. The plan was to launch a mass shooting at the U.S. Army's Tank-Automotive & Armaments Command (TACOM) facility just north of Detroit. This is not a military base but more of an Army facility.
Breanna Morello
@BreannaMorello ISIS TERROR PLOT A Michigan Army National Guard member was arrested for allegedly plotting a mass shooting at the U.S. Army's Tank-Automotive & Armaments Command facility in Warren, Michigan, on behalf of ISIS, according to the Justice Department. Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed Said was apprehended Tuesday after traveling near the military base and launching a drone as part of his attack plan. In conversations with an undercover FBI agent, Said reportedly advised, "I recommend everyone have about seven magazines because you don't want to be in there and run out of ammo," as detailed in a criminal complaint. He faces charges of attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization and distributing information related to a destructive device, with a potential penalty of up to 20 years per count if convicted.

Judge Patricia Giles of the Eastern District of Virginia ordered President Donald Trump's administration to release Suri after two months of detention in Texas for allegedly violating his student visa. Giles released Suri "without bond and imposed minimal conditions beyond requiring him to continue attending court proceedings." The media glosses over the root of the problem regarding Suri. They've done the bare minimum while burying the lede: DHS accused Suri of spreading Hamas propaganda and antisemitism on social media and has links to Hamas. Suri is married to Mapheze Saleh, an American citizen, the daughter of Ahmed Yousef. Yousef served as an advisor to Ismail Haniyeh...a top Hamas leader taken out by Israel in Tehran in July 2024. Also:So diversity. Much strength.
Ahmed Yousef was a senior Hamas figure in Gaza and an adviser to Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. He also founded the United Association for Studies and Research, which had ties to officials at Georgetown and its Alwaleed Center where his son-in-law, Suri, now works. The United Association for Studies and Research was a Hamas-affiliated think tank that operated in the United States from 1989 to 2004. According to the Investigative Project on Terrorism, it was established by Hamas leader Mousa Abu Marzook and served as a front for Hamas activities in the United States, including propaganda and fundraising.

Anti-Israel protesters and Islamists gathered in Katwijk in the Netherlands yesterday to disrupt a pro-Israel event held by in a church. [A Christian church, fancy that]
Local youth and football fans of the area, Katwijk, Rijnsburgse Boys, and Quick Boys clubs, typically rivals, united to form a protective barrier around the church to shield it from the demonstrators.
Violence quickly broke out, with the young men driving off [tire irons?] the aggressive Islamists encouraged by the radical imam Abou Hafs, who is suspected of ties to ISIS.
Riot police arrived on the scene and the Islamists left the small town, which known a Christian stronghold.

It's funny because the "brain experts" are also "plane experts."
Why is EVERYONE getting the Qatar plane story Wrong? It's not a "gift" "to Trump," and it won't be "on display" at the Trump Library" in the near future.
As I understand it: Quatar offered to LOAN the US govt a new(er) Boeing 747 to be used as AF-1 while Boeing finishes our plane(s)*. And THEN, when the current AF-1 747 is "retired," it could end up "on loan" for display at the future site of the Trump Library.
*I believe they always make 2 indentical examples for AF-1 use.

The left forgets this; Islam was conquering and building their utopias centuries before Lenin was a twinkle in his daddy's eye.

They actually punished people for their crimes.
When they find out there are actual consequences, shit changes.

Goodbye, Morris. We are all gonna miss you. You could be hard on directors, make-up artists, costumers - really anyone with arms or legs - but I know you did it for the ultimate good of the film. The day you wouldn’t come out of your trailer unless we sent in 40 heads of lettuce taught me a powerful lesson: never compromise your art. I will never forget at craft service that time when we split the Three Musketeers bar and you let me have the bigger half. But that’s who you were.
I know your character’s decapitation in the first movie precluded your participation in the sequel, but we all appreciated the fruit basket and the hilarious note. I will miss the sound of your tail sliding through the tall grass, your cold, bumpy skin, but, most of all, I will miss your infectious laugh. Thanks to Mr. Young for taking care of you all these years, and vaya con dios, old friend.

And Erdogan alone has dreamed of a resurrected Ottoman Empire for a long time.
Their empires always sucked. The sacked a greatly-weakened eastern Roman empire.
The only reason Islam is any kind of threat today is because we allow it and because the trans-national globohomo elites want it to menace white people.

Well its pretty simple: do these things and you get to heaven. Like every religion other than Christianity, its works-based. Its contradictory and says some really heinous stuff but the core element is basic "do good and get rewarded" karma crap.
Anyone older than five knows that's not how anything works.

Her name was fine. It was basically about as difficult to pronounce as Donnelly, so not Gaelic. They will have to spend years getting their kids -if they have any to and I hope they will- to pronounce his Polish last name .

Funny. But the first "B" above?
It proves there's only two genders.

They seem to grudgingly concede that nationwide injunctions by a single judge have enough votes and the Court does not like the practice.
But are hanging on the unwieldiness of every person challenging it having to file a case or the difficulty of class certification.
But that's the problem--the Court seems to assume that it is its job to "solve" that.
Rather than--follow the fucking rules and leave any solution to the people where it belongs!
Kagan and Sotomeyor have already admitted they've pre-judged the underlying question--without it being briefed or developed below!
With Wide Latina calling Trump's EO "illegal" several times.
And also sneering several times about how Trump has "lost every case."
ACB looks to be wanting some sort of solution, demanding the S.G. answer more precisely Kagan's Q.
There was an interesting bit where the Court questioned about whether the Executive could ignore their rulings.
Suggesting the Court is close to declaring itself King.
There's going to be enough in the left bloc opinions that will drive a majority of the public against the Court; Judge Dredd will appear constrained in compare.

Actually I agree. Most likely they were all members of the same gang who made it onto the force, and they caught some guy from a rival gang and beat him to death.
