Socialism for New York?

Meh. New York jumped the shark years ago, IMHO. FAFO, NY voters.

Weddings Are Expensive These Days!

Tech Entrepreneur Finances Wedding by Selling Advertisements on His Suit Jacket

doof-wedding-ads.jpg

A broke Frenchman was able to cover the cost of his wedding by selling advertisements on his tuxedo jacket to 26 startups and becoming a human billboard.

French salesman Dagobert Renouf had long been dreaming of marrying his then-fiancée, Anna Plynina, but he was too poor to afford a proper wedding. To put it plainly, he was completely broke and on the verge of homelessness. But that was no reason to deprive his beloved of the wedding she had been dreaming of. Back in July, he posted on X, announcing that he had decided to try and cover the expenses of his nuptials by becoming a human billboard. Any company willing to promote their products or services was willing to buy a slot on his suit jacket. His post went viral, and he ended up with 26 brand names on his jacket and a total of $10,000 in advertising fees.

Clever dude. Check out the whole thing.

Illegal Border Crossing INTO Mexico?

Border Agents Seize Truck Carrying 163 Exotic Reptiles

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers made a major wildlife trafficking bust last week, seizing a truck carrying 163 animals, many of them exotic reptiles, at the Anzalduas International Bridge.

On October 22, CBP officers encountered a silver Toyota truck attempting to exit the U.S. into Mexico. A secondary inspection revealed dozens of reptiles, amphibians, and arachnids concealed within the vehicle. Officials say the animals were hidden in an apparent attempt to smuggle them across the border illegally.

Among the seized wildlife were 24 royal pythons, multiple species of milk snakes and king snakes, various lizards, tree frogs, tarantulas, and several rare python morphs. The driver was arrested, and both the vehicle and the animals were taken into custody. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is now handling the investigation.

4 NYC Rent Freeze. Geezh. That is a not so backhanded way of government confiscating private property without actually taking title to it. It seems that it instantly puts rental property owners on a path to bankruptcy and at the same time destroys a liquidity in the real estate markets - that leaves NYC in a position to sole "buyer."

I have a sufficiently low opinion of the voters in NYC, VA and NJ not to be surprised by the results.

Add to that the Republicans putting up candidates that nobody is going to crawl over broken glass to vote for. Good, grey, dull people who would make good governors but will never have the opportunity to do so.

Radical islamists, radical LGBT, radical feminists, the homeless, the undocumented, the radical Jews, the students, the old timer hippie boomers alive when Greenwich village still had the Beats doing poetry. We'll have to see if the city council agree with anything he wants and if they can actually get anything done.

Sadly, I don't think he's like Eric Adams who just wanted the perks and none of the work. I think he means to do serious damage.

Does it hurt Obama that he refused to endorse Mamdami? Even temu Obama got in line.

This is what I been mulling over. The core Democrat Plantation (Blacks, women, under 30s, Hispanics, college educated) voted between 60% to 90% for the Communist. It also seems that when Trump is not on the ballot that middle that Trump won over revert to their core voting patterns. Based on tonight, the mid-terms could end with House in D hands which would effectively put Trump's last two years in the toilet. Plus impeachments and star chamber investigations. To early to say but...

177 160 Question to the Horde:

Daughter #2 is pretty calm in SHTF situations, and is contemplating working as a 911 operator.

However, she is a light to moderate pot smoker and they do drug testing.

I don't want her to "beat the test", I want her to quit smoking pot.

Anybody know how long she will test positive on an employment drug test? Any good (healthy) ways for her to detox more quickly?

Thanks!

186 I really don’t think it’s a case where the GOP screwed up, these are donk majority areas and the out party always has the energy and momentum.

The only thing that surprised me was the strength of the victory in NJ. Sherrel is a scrub, non-entity lightweight who is going to raise sales tax.

Apparently a majority of New Jersians want this.

187 #10? Ill take it. Greetings from Singapore hordlings!

Looks like, once again, Republicans fail to show up in off season elections and the overwhelming and "fortified" voting of northern VA and areas around Richmond and Norfolk are simply too big to overcome.

I had held out some hope in NJ - but northern NJ, particularly Newark and Jersey City areas are simply overrun by left wing lunatics. And, in addition, all of the blue states have had a mass exodus of sane, conservatives who have fled to red states. Thus states like NJ, NY and CA will continue to become even more socialist and insane. This trend will continue. Hence it is imperative that the republicans control the white House for the next census to ensure that we capture the loss of population for these states accurately with reduced congressional representation. Trump's initiatives of turning back the tide of illegal immigration, shrinking the DEIFedGov and destroying the liberal powerbase of NGO's siphoning money off of Uncle Sugar will help/needs to be ramped up. Also - a mid cycle convention is an absolute necessity - this allows Trump and the Repubs national broadcast airtime that cannot be censored.

I think one full month is a good rule of thumb, PI. I suppose it could vary, depending on how much/how often one, uh, partakes.


My former employer began drug testing due to federal contract requirements, in the '80s. Previously, they didn't care.

So D-Day was finally announced, and they said everyone has 30 days to "clean up" and then everybody will be tested.

(Surprisingly, there were *still* a few idiots what got canned for failing.)

So, emphasize the bad. No credit for the good that other things are, and especially not any good side to the pissing off thing.
You want to see how D's get elected, watch the MSM. Even better, look at Yahoo's news feed.

That’s where it’s headed, which is why for months I’ve said the Democrats cannot be allowed to ever hold power again. Trump needs to ignore the unelected judges and forge ahead. The GOP cucks need to nuke the filibuster and start slashing the gov’t to the bone and pushing through every single act that will mass disenfranchise Democrat voters.

This is the last shot we have to win “by the book”, and it’s being squandered in typical GOP fashion with right-wing infighting and deference to the judiciary while the Democrats go on the war path.

Nice! Please avoid powder-coating the frame. It looks nice when new, but if gets scratched or chipped, it can come off in sheets. Paint, if scratched or chipped, can be touched up with more paint.

Had the Avanti out on the road again today. Adjusted the TV cable, and it is now shifting properly, but still a little early for my taste. Will adjust again. Made changes to gas pedal, and it is much better. Took out the pressure gauge I had temporarily connected to the line pressure port on the transmission. Wasn't telling me much useful information, and leaked onto the floor. I have shifter out of the car right now. Could not engage the "1" or "2" positions. Needs 2.25" of linear motion on the linkage rod. Lever on shifter moves more than that, but it's geometry is wrong.

Open differential, so maybe just one. The car definitely drives different than it did with the TH350. More jam off the line, and less RPM at cruise. Speedometer is waaay off, but part of that was from going from 3.07 axle to 3.54 axle. I will do some mathematical stuff, and figure out which speedo cable pinion I need to make it work right.

It could be an evolutionary path for a new defensive mechanism in cats. Produce poop that is so smelly that it attracts predators who think they're getting an easy meal, then when the predator gets up close and takes a big whiff to verify that the pooper is diseased, the smell takes out the predator's sense of smell completely, leaving the predator unable to hunt using its sense of smell, and so the predator starves to death.

It looks like Mamdani won. Was it Bill Kristol who said he hoped Mamdani would win, just to really show NYC how bad Surprise Dry Anal could be?

I expect Trump, in 2-3 years, to do a Gerald Ford and say NO to bailing out NYC.

Exit question: Is Schumer finished? Does he realise it? I've heard that AOC wants his seat, and I predict she (or Chunkie's opponent) will really play the ShutDown Card, real hard.

I was wrong. CA seems to have really wanted Prop 50. I think the "stick it to Trump" angle really paid off. The turnout in my area really was big, but it looks like a lot of D's were panicked into voting, and many R's and I's though that they could wait. I wonder how many people will realize that they SHOULD HAVE VOTED, even if it meant mailing in their ballots. Well, next time ...

I watch historical 9-11 footage every August, trying to find newly-discovered stuff. The most interesting sub-genre is man-on-the-street reactions.

Yes, there is a lot of racial, ethnic, and cultural diversity there. What strikes me is that NYCers, regardless of those differences, seemed really really work-focused. They're there to earn, and a lot of them seemed like they cared about doing their jobs right, and they liked the intensity of the way they lived. If there was a radical difference among their reactions, it was faint and rare.

I suppose NYC has changed a lot since then. The Muslim pop must have risen, like it has everywhere else, but I don't know by how much.

So, if Mamdani gets a compliant rent control board, likely, 1/2 of the rents are frozen. Good luck undoing that if it gets in place. Holy smokes. That means the other half, the unregulated properties, are going to see staggering rent increases. This sh*t show will create ripe conditions for and expansion of taking private property rights.

It’s always been a mess but generally 1/2 is free market and half is rent assisted or controlled. And the rent controlled ones are passed down through generations. Think Friends scenario where Monica lived in the apartment her grandmother once lived in and was affordable. That’s very common which also distorts the market.

Overall NY real estate is retarded as can be.

Posted by: Disinterested FDA Director

Don't know. However, it seems that expanding rent control and then freezes to the unregulated rent market has to be a priority. With that in place landlords would stop maintaining properties and slowly go bankrupt, and because nobody in their right mind would be such property that leaves NYC government in a key position to condemn these distressed properties and take them over. That has to be more complicated that that but seems to be the backbone to break.

469 There's one piece of good news on this election night.

In my town of Easton CT, our long-shot Republican candidate overcame tremendous odds - in the form of a scion of a CT heating oil fortune and the proprietor of the most popular gathering spot in our town - to win election to First Selectman (equivalent to mayor) in a majority Democrat town, beating an incumbent administration. It took a lot of late nights, knocking on doors in town with no sidewalks, and frantically calling people at home with two hours left of voting from a crowded library conference room.

The rest of the state (or at least Fairfield County) got killed this election cycle. Our town may be the one bright spot in the state elections. Just got back from celebrating, and I'm ready for bed. It feels good, however. Our candidate won by less than 10 votes. It's going to a recount, but I still feel good.

Get out and vote folks. It really makes a difference.

482 So help me, I would never offer any property for rent-- not even in my (supposedly) "red" area.

Too many regs. Too many taxes. Too much hassle. Even here, the "law" is NOT on the owners' side!

Sure, the tenant skipped out or squatted without paying... tough shit, pay me! *says the tax collector*

Oh, you had a fire? A break-in? Tough shit, pay me! *says the insurance company*

There's a splintery step on the stairway? Tough shit, better fix it NOW, or tenant can withhold payment *says the housing office*

Fk. That.

483 318 "Mamdani's acceptance speech sounds a lot more like he is planning to go to war on American."

Did he win by fraud, or does it read like a genuine NYC voter enthusiasm for the a-hole? Who constitutes his constituency? What was the turnout like?

"Hell, no!"

Why not? Because: one thing that's worse than renting out your house, is renting out your house to *someone you know*

The only thing worse than THAT, is renting to a friend or relative!

I was wrong. CA seems to have really wanted Prop 50. I think the "stick it to Trump" angle really paid off. The turnout in my area really was big, but it looks like a lot of D's were panicked into voting, and many R's and I's though that they could wait. I wonder how many people will realize that they SHOULD HAVE VOTED, even if it meant mailing in their ballots. Well, next time ...

Perhaps it really is time to leave.

By a huge margin, it seems: about 64%/36%...almost 2/3rds voted YES on this turd. Kalifornia is truly lost. It was bad enough with all the gerrymandering (the so-called commission is majority democrat). It's bad enough that we have jungle voting, so in some general elections, you'll only find two dems. It's bad enough that there is a supermajority of dems in both houses. It's bad enough that all the major elected officials are dem. Time to do what they do with gerrymandering in blue states to their minorities in red states.

Trump could easily dismantle Mamdani and his entire Islamic network by denigrating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization and filing charges against the Islamic groups and 501c3s that funded Mamdani’s campaign.

The Holy Land Foundation terrorism trial contains troves of evidence for prosecution.

Why hasn’t this been done yet?

People here ignore just how badly Trump grates on a great number of Americans. Even those who agree with his positions.

Its just how personality works. Vance, if given the chance, will make Trump appear moderate. Yet he won't elicit nearly the widespread knee-jerk reaction of Trump.

So they also had dc heaters that you’d plug into your bomber B-24 or whatever. And you could see the copper mesh pattern sewn in was really doubled up over the groinular region. The flight crews wrote complaining about that mentioning you better be real cold. A real crotchpot cooker.

43 My youngest is learning about Egypt in school. Going to show them that video from Luxor!!

Any videos online you recommend I show them to expand their Egypt learning experience? Or fun movies set in ancient Egypt? (Beyond the mummy or Stargate or the fifth element, lol.)

He's also going through an "I'm too rational for religion and to believe in God" phase right now.

The bear's sensitive olfactory organs become inflamed when they detect even the slightest whiff of the mephitic marauders approach.

Big Fairfax dump, which is voting like it's a Trump election and not a state election (closer to 80-20 vs 65-35) - not a surprise with the way Trump has handled fed gov all year (it's why all seats were a 10pt plus D fave on a generic ballot 2 months ago)...33% Fairfax in, 22% state overall, so it's early. Gov is lost, but each seat below is losing 4% and 8% of Abigail's votes, so how big she wins determines if Ds hold either of the other 2 seats.

He wouldn’t go on to be grilled by an actual reporter and answer questions, even though I now find out that he had a hand in which questions would be asked and what they would put out on the air. Excuse me, I don’t think he would have shown up at “60 Minutes” if he was in better shape. So we have hope he will be out soon.”

Griffin: “Well the elections is in 2028.”

Behar: “Listen I think he should be in jail, frankly, and personally if they would be doing their job they would be indicting him or at least impeaching him. He’s been crossing boundaries all over the place, this guy. So maybe he won’t last till the next election.”

I wanted to get the yard mowed because it was looking a bit frowzy. But I saw that there were expanses of tiny flowers - likely from some late-season weed - and that the migrating Monarch butterflies were attracted to them. So I held off. We have a good supply of milkweed in the garden, which should keep them happy as well.

145 Loudon vote almost fully in - matching normal 65-35 for Abi that Fairfax tends to be (with Fairfax 75-25)...the shutdown and fed gov cuts all year played the role they were gonna play in the top spot. We'll see about the other 2 races, but I think Miyares is the one who might pull it out.

AKA - you can't win the state if you lose fed gov and defense industry that big...

Dems did play the shutdown right as the cherry on top of the year to get VA Gov...although, to be fair, with all the fed gov cuts pre shutdown, it probably didn't matter. The only thing that moved the race closer at all was Jay Jones...

Not neoprene, but there's something that's called tool dip or some such, the I remember from when I worked at Grainger. Would be plastic or rubber, but you can dip the tool (shut up, ya Morons) or implement in it, and it coats it. Lemme go do a search on that.

Posted by: Cow Demon at November 04, 2025 07:59 PM (vwL3N)

You are correct, sir! He won both of his terms with about 63% of the vote. So he's served 1-1/2 terms.

But:

2022 Election: A day after redistricted maps were revealed, Hunt announced his intention to run in the new, solidly Republican 38th district.

In January 2023, at the beginning of the 118th U.S. Congress, Hunt supported Kevin McCarthy for Speaker of the United States House of Representatives.

Hunt was among the 71 Republicans who voted against final passage of the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 in the House.

My GSD was Isis. She was the best girl in the whole world, truly. One of the smartest, sweetest dogs. When we brought my middle daughter home, she parked herself next to her or underneath her crib and decided who was and who was not allowed to see the baby. I do not know her criteria, but if you were on the no list, it was a very serious no.

Top of ticket ultimately was a pocket book election. And Rs could not win that in VA or NJ. I'm not sure they could win that anywhere right now, b/c middle class pocketbooks have not yet gotten better...maybe not worse, but it was really sucky at Biden end, and there hasn't been a lot of up movement yet, at least feelable up movement. As I explain to many, just b/c the inflation rate goes down, prices don't, and years of Biden inflation compounded the pain more and more, especially with no wage growth or job growth...2025 then feels worse than 2024 which felt worse than 2023.

Trump was winning non pocketbook issues, but that doesn't ultimately win elections, where people vote self interest 1st most often.

Election Report from the South SF Bay area in CA:

The turnout for this pre-midterm election is very much heavier in my area than for any election I've seen since the early-90's.

The line to get in to get a ballot (3 servers IIRC, with an ID, computer look-up and Signature the only actions to get a ballot), normally 3-5, occasionally 10-15, was perhaps 40 when I arrived and expanded to perhaps 60 while I was still in line.

Also when I was in line, perhaps 10 people showed up to submit their mail-in ballots, and perhaps one more for their spouse (I believe this).

This seems surprising, as only a non-partisan Assessor position. one County measure and one State proposition are on the ballot. But, the State Proposition is Prop 50.

I have the feeling that Prop 50 is going to crash and burn ( 45 YES / 55 NO or worse ). I think that the state-wide commercial (TV & YouTube) by Gov-Got-Nuthin-Nazi-Pelozi-The Dog-Eater-In-Chief and the Little Bartender (AOC) have really turned off a lot of people.

The vanity ad by Tom Steyer really didn't help the D's either.

Back in my younger days when I did the comic-con and fandom stuff, I had a bunch of socialist left friends. I mentioned one day to some of them that it's horrible that someone in the entertainment industry would discriminate based on politics.

Very matter of facts, they were like oh no, you definitely should. No republican should have a job in Hollywood.

Even if they are the kindest nicest person ever?

If they are the kindest nicest person ever, they aren't a republican.

Needless to say I dropped out of that friend group.

Absolutely education was just as gatekept, they are fucking communists who use "socialist" to not pay the full freight, and the right refuses to take them at their word.

287 @279 ... well, tit for tat is the optimal game theory. I've known this since I was a wee lad back in the 70s.

So I've been comfortable in my life making life as unpleasant and difficult as possible for people who I know are liberals. Their pain and the pain of their families gladdens me.

289 Election Report from the South SF Bay area in CA:

The turnout for this pre-midterm election is very much heavier in my area than for any election I've seen since the early-90's.

Yeah, my wife's been in line for about an hour here in SoCal burbs. Small purple city of 35k, and only Prop 50 on the ballot.

291 Piper, if you're still here--

Unless Plasti-Dip has improved the formula, I wouldn't bet on it lasting very long on hand weights. Plus: expensive!

Probably better to either:
>re-glue the original neoprene coverings
--or--
>peel off the neoprene completely and suggest gloves for gripping the weights

You could try the dip, of course... just be sure to *thoroughly clean and degrease* (skin oils are grease) the weights before dipping. Have a place to hang them up while coating cures fully before use.

You got people moving out of those shitholes for greener pastures and heading to red states. Who the hell do you think is replacing them? These are blue areas to start with. Go to fag land, run 2 candidates, mayor bootybandit and Sydney Sweeney, and bootybandit wins is no...frigging..surprise. NYC is a joke, they elected De Blasio..twice. They watched him blow the place up and said thank you sir and elected him again. Jersey elected that shark toothed motherfucker twice..TWICE. It was close the second time, but it shouldn't be.

323 Interesting Facebook phenomenon (everyone here in the sticks is on Facebook--lots of cottage industry, small-town gossip, cheaper than websites). Their algorithm will, of course, track you on your clicks and pitch accordingly. Click on football videos, that's what you get. Puppies frolicking with monkeys, ditto.

People forward these to friends. When the friends click on them, they're likewise targeted. It's (ugh, how I hate the word) "viral."

Better than Viagra? Forwarded. Neuropathy cream? Send it. Weird-ass foam "sex-couch" thing? Send to spouse.

Of course, it makes you a junkie briefly, but you just wean back onto the football/resisting arrest/puppies/Karen/cooking videos.

326 Based on these election results, the Communists are being successful in a coup. The hatred is off the chart. We, as thinking, informed citizens, are the target of that hatred. And we know where this will lead.

This is sub-optimal. The Constitutional Nation has lost control of the judiciary, at least 50% of Congress, and the Federal Bureaucracy.

A Nika Riot in several cities may work. But we need to think of more options. There are some OR game theories that work pretty well.

Seems pretty obvious they don't give a damn about optics, just power.

I have no doubt if and when Democrats get back in power they will nuke the filibuster completely instead of just for judges. Up until recently I was against getting rid of the filibuster but Democrats have become so extreme there is no point in not beating them to the punch and getting as much as we can while we can.

According to intertubes, Kalifornia has 9 Republican representatives in the U.S. House of Representatives; that's out of a total of 52, or 17%. What's being done won't change much, but they just have to do it...while wasting $100s of millions for this election (no other ballot issues).

If so, maybe an acceptable tradeoff, unless you live in VA. We may see the same response here in CA to Trump going to war with the state. Doesn't mean he shouldn't, but it won't be great for us in CA if we have even less sane representation.

402 Those of you on X who follow Data Republican should read her thread on Democrats structural advantage in low turnout midterm type elections. We talk about Soros a lot but there are other large Democrat funders such as the Ford Foundation which pours billions into Democrat GOTV groups in races like this. We have basically nothing like it.

It's not the only reason. Obviously, states like NY and VA and the mayors race in NYC are Democrat strongholds. But having billions to spend on GOTV helps a lot.

Not sure if any conclusion can be drawn yet but it would seem that its more than plausible that the Ds could take back control of the House in a year which would monkey wrench Trump's presidency.

Quick Hits

Representative Brandon Gill has filed articles of impeachment against rogue communist "judge" Boasberg.

Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) will formally introduce articles of impeachment against radical left-wing U.S. District Judge James Boasberg for what he calls the judge's "corrupt and unethical" role in the so-called Arctic Frost investigation.


...


The articles of impeachment accuses Boasberg of authorizing unconstitutional subpoenas and nondisclosure orders as part of the FBI's Arctic Frost probe, which, of course, was signed off by Special Counsel Jack Smith. These orders targeted Republican members of Congress--including Sens. Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, and Marsha Blackburn--while they were engaged in their official legislative duties, violating Article I protections.

Boasberg is also accused of allowing the DOJ to bar AT&T from informing Senator Cruz about a subpoena for his records for at least a year, citing baseless claims that Cruz might destroy evidence or intimidate witnesses. The resolution argues Boasberg's actions directly violated 2 U.S.C. sec. 6628, which protects Senate offices from such secret orders.

The resolution further alleges that Boasberg enabled politically motivated subpoenas against conservative organizations like the Conservative Partnership Institute and America First Policy Institute, as well as individuals such as Jeffrey Clark, Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, and Jenna Ellis--suggesting the court was weaponized to suppress political opponents.

The resolution concludes that Boasberg's conduct demonstrates a "pattern of impropriety" and a failure to uphold constitutional limits, making him unfit to serve and warranting removal from office. Amen!

Boasberg has faced mounting criticism for months over his blatantly partisan injunctions against the Trump administration--rulings that many legal experts say have no constitutional foundation. Previous attempts to rein in his judicial overreach and impeach Boasberg earlier this year fizzled out, but this latest effort has real momentum behind it.

Nothing will happen until Congress begins subpoenaing these courts to determine how the alleged "random assignment of judges" ALWAYS results in hard-left judges being assigned to the most politically-sensitive cases.

If they do so, they will find the courts and clerks are conspiring to very non-randomly assign the Democrats' most cherished lawsuits to their most reliable communist judges.

Feds prevented 6,525 suspected or known terrorists from entering the US this year.

In a few short months, the National Counterterrorism Center says it's helped prevent 6,525 known or suspected terrorists (KSTs) from entering the U.S.

This is after U.S. Customs and Border Protection and Border Patrol officers apprehended a record more than 3,000 KSTs in the U.S. illegally in fiscal 2025, according to CBP data.

Until this year, the greatest number of KSTs CBP and Border Patrol agents were apprehended during the Biden administration: 1,903.

The majority, 64%, totaling 1,216, were apprehended at the northern border coming from Canada between fiscal years 2021-2024, according to CBP data, The Center Square first reported.

Huh, the Biden Administration barely stopped any terrorists from entering via the southern border. What a surprise. I am shock.

GOP Senators introduce legislation to codify Antifa as a terrorist organization.

The Stop ANTIFA Act has been introduced by U.S. Sens. Ashley Moody, R-Fla., Rick Scott, R-Fla., and Mike Lee, R-Utah, which would direct the National Joint Terrorism Task Force to investigate Antifa.

The president's executive order designating Antifa a domestic terror organization came a week after The Center Square posed the question to Trump in the Oval Office, following a rise in left-wing violence, including the assassination of conservative political activist Charlie Kirk.

The president's executive order describes the group as a "militarist, anarchist enterprise," which calls for the overthrow of the federal government, especially targeting law enforcement.


...

Moody echoed the president's executive order, underscoring the group's continual targeting of law enforcement.

"Violent extremists who target our law enforcement officers and destroy our communities must be held accountable. It's far past time to designate Antifa a terrorist organization. The Stop ANTIFA Act makes it clear that organized violence has no place in America," Moody said in a news release.

Both Democrat candidates for governor in New Jersey and Virginia:
-- are women
-- have served their country

Yet they consistently vote against measures that protect girl's & women's opportunities, privacy, and safety. Remarkable.

Commenters wondered about this:

Hans Mahncke
@HansMahncke


The fact that highly incriminating documents, including Comey's handwritten notes showing he knew from the start that the Russia collusion story was a Clinton campaign hoax, were found in burn bags inside a locked, unused SCIF at FBI headquarters is deeply strange and has bothered me since it first came to light. There are a few possible explanations. One is that a quiet "whistleblower" deliberately preserved them, knowing they were too explosive to destroy. Another is a straightforward bureaucratic failure, where destruction was authorized but never actually carried out. Yet another possibility is that the "unused" SCIF was secretly serving as an off-the-books storage site to hide sensitive materials from oversight, allowing them to disappear without being formally destroyed, and that when the old guard left, the stash was simply forgotten. There may be other explanations too. My best guess is that this was a bureaucratic blunder of the same kind that once worked in their favor, like when they forgot to close the Gen. Flynn case, which allowed them to target Flynn in January 2017 without having to open a new one. This time, the mistake caught up with them.

CAIR must be stripped of 501c3 status

Exclusive: Chip Roy introduces bill to strip 'absurd' tax-exempt status from CAIR, other groups with terrorist ties

As Roy says, I don't even know how they've kept their status as an American "charity" through all these years of funding terrorism.

'We should have ended this long ago.'

Republican Rep. Chip Roy of Texas is leading the charge to ensure Americans are no longer "inadvertently subsidizing" groups with terrorist links, Blaze News learned.

Roy introduced legislation Tuesday that would eliminate the tax-exempt status for extremist groups with close ties to terrorist organizations, according to bill text obtained exclusively by Blaze News. Roy is setting his sights on groups like the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which has been found to have ties with the Muslim Brotherhood and even Hamas.

'This must end.'

"It is absurd that the U.S. has provided organizations with ties to terrorism tax-exempt status in the U.S. -- resulting in the American people inadvertently subsidizing terror against themselves," Roy told Blaze News.

"It is ridiculous, and we should have ended this long ago," he continued.


More surprises: When men outnumber women in an industry, it's called "inequality."

When women outnumber men, it's called... "parity." Equality.

I didn't know this: the UK is so totalitarian they prosecuted Tommy Robinson for terrorism, for exposing Muslim rape gangs.

He was acquitted today (or yesterday).

In case you missed it: Big Brother Corporation, I mean the BBC, has been exposed for chopping and editing Trump's words to make it sound like he was telling J6 protesters to go to the Capitol and "fight, fight like hell."

Prayers for Scott Adams, and I hope Trump can get him the experimental drug he's requesting.

Scott Adams
@ScottAdamsSays

On Monday, I will ask President Trump, via X, to help save my life. He offered to help me if I needed it.

I need it.

As many of you know, I have metastasized prostate cancer.

My healthcare provider, Kaiser of Northern California, has approved my application to receive a newly FDA-approved drug called Pluvicto. But they have dropped the ball in scheduling the brief IV to administer it and I can't seem to fix that.

I am declining fast. I will ask President Trump if he can get Kaiser of Northern California to respond and schedule it for Monday. That will give me a fighting chance to stick around on this planet a little bit longer.

It is not a cure, but it does give good results to many people.

31 England seems to come through. In the 30s and 40s, nazism was so mainstream that a the King of England himself was palling around with hitler, Chamberlain signed the peace of our time with hitler, and Ribbentrop slept around with British high society. But then came Churchill. In the 1970s the UK was in the worst possible shape, and then Thatcher came through. We shall see. They are of the same stock as we are , so won't go down like the rest of Europe. At least not without a fight.

32 There was a tanker that crashed into North Wichita a very long time ago. One of the crew's last actions before they all died was to dump all the fuel. If they hadn't of done that the resulting fire and damage to that part of the city would have been horrific. Some of the people who owned the homes that were dowsed in fuel attempted to sue McConnel for damaging their siding and paint.

-- are women
-- have served their country
-- have daughters

Yet they consistently vote against measures that protect girl's & women's opportunities, privacy, and safety. Remarkable.

And both represent their AWFL demographic and the Democrat Party incredibly well. They are underwhelming, not very intelligent, promoted well beyond their capabilities, not at all imaginative or original on their thoughts, obedient in their servitude to anything destructive, unable to factual debate on the issues, extraordinarily rote in their thinking and remarkably good at doing what they are told. People suffer because incapable jokes such as these are in positions of power. But hey, don’t worry.

121 Nothing will happen until Congress begins subpoenaing these courts to determine how the alleged "random assignment of judges" ALWAYS results in hard-left judges being assigned to the most politically-sensitive cases.

If they do so, they will find the courts and clerks are conspiring to very non-randomly assign the Democrats' most cherished lawsuits to their most reliable communist judges.

Posted by: Delurker at November 04, 2025 06:52 PM (NhiOW)

I think the disgruntled agent theory makes the most sense - was told to shred, gathered everything up and then stuck it in a scif and told the boss the matter was "taken care of." Maybe gave a note to the incoming admin to take a look in said scif. Thus, keeps his head down but still makes sure the truth comes to light.

Posted by: moki at November 04, 2025 06:58 PM (wLjpr)

132 Colorado too.
Colorado has tighter budgets than most because of TABOR. It's been sliding by because it's on the 40th parallel with its major airport, and because of all the rich people paying the (low) income tax, which adds up when you get that rich.
But the Democrats are spending so much in CO they're getting by from Federal support..

Colorado had two amendments to tax those rich folks more this year. One to skirt the TABOR and not refund excess money collected for free meals for all kids in public schools from a bill they got passed previously and one to limit itemized deductions for state taxes for rich folks (over 300K income) to expand the free meals and for SNAP. I voted no, but both measures will probably pass since "only rich people are hit by this tax"

Extra off-putting to me that the 'tax' is by capping deductions, commies really hate people making their own decisions on what kind of charity to support.

I think the disgruntled agent theory makes the most sense - was told to shred, gathered everything up and then stuck it in a scif and told the boss the matter was "taken care of." Maybe gave a note to the incoming admin to take a look in said scif. Thus, keeps his head down but still makes sure the truth comes to light.

Climate Change: CBS Fires Almost Its Entire "Climate Change" Unit

LOLLLLLL

lolololol

This liberal is very Sad!

Americans who rely on broadcast networks for honest journalism suffered a painful loss this week, as CBS News -- fresh off its acquisition by Skydance Media and the installation of anti-woke opinion writer Bari Weiss as editor in chief -- fired most of the reporters who specialize in covering climate change.

CBS owner Paramount began laying off about 1,000 employees across the broader company Wednesday, delivering a big chunk of the cost savings that Skydance CEO David Ellison promised investors. The CBS climate team's decimation was confirmed to me by three people who requested anonymity. Not all of them work at Paramount.

Of the six-person team, four lost their jobs, effective Friday. A fifth person may yet be reassigned to non-climate stories, my sources believed. National environment correspondent David Schechter kept his job.

The layoffs are especially devastating because CBS was a climate leader among the national TV networks, becoming an early member of the global media collaboration Covering Climate Now and producing vital work.

In June, for instance, CBS Evening News aired a segment on worsening heat-related health dangers for pregnant women.

Let me guess: Pregnant women people hardest hit?

AI Overview

Pregnancy heat risk days on the rise, new report finds ...

CBS reported in June 2025 that climate change is increasing the risks for pregnant women due to hotter temperatures, with a specific focus on a report that found climate change has nearly doubled the number of "pregnancy heat-risk days" in the U.S.. These risks include dehydration, heat stroke, and a higher chance of complications like preterm birth. The report highlighted that many states offer little to no guidance on heat safety for expectant mothers.

Key points from CBS reports

Increased heat-risk days: A Climate Central analysis discussed by CBS found that climate change has nearly doubled the number of days each year that pose a risk for pregnant women due to heat.

Specific risks: Extreme heat can increase the risk of dehydration, heat stroke, and heat exhaustion in pregnant women. It can also lead to more serious complications, such as preterm birth.

Why pregnant women are more vulnerable: Pregnancy puts added stress on the heart, increases blood volume, and makes women more prone to dehydration, which is exacerbated by high temperatures.

Lack of state guidance: A CBS News report noted that most states provide little to no specific heat safety guidance for pregnant women.

LOL. How did I guess that?

Just this month, the network partnered with KFF Health News to show how hospitals are facing increasingly severe flood risks.

Oh, they "partnered" with the left-wing organization Kaiser Family Foundation, which plants left-wing story in the "nonpartisan" media?

And was the story, by any chance -- Hospitals, sick people hardest hit?

Yup!

At least 170 U.S. hospitals face major flood risk. Experts say Trump is making it worse.


October 1, 2025 / 6:00 AM EDT / KFF Health News

Louisville, Tenn. -- When a big storm hits, Peninsula Hospital could be underwater.

At this decades-old psychiatric hospital on the edge of the Tennessee River, an intense storm could submerge the building in 11 feet of water, cutting off all roads around the facility, according to a sophisticated computer simulation of flood risk.

Aurora, a young woman who was committed to Peninsula as a teenager, said the hospital sits so close to the river that it felt like a moat keeping her and dozens of other patients inside. KFF Health News agreed not to publish her full name because she shared private medical history.

"My first feeling is doom," Aurora said as she watched the simulation of the river rising around the hospital. "These are probably some of the most vulnerable people."

Beautiful. Perfect.

No notes.

I guessed accurately again. I'm on fire!

Back to the sob story about the Climate Change Unit being fired.

The climate team also arranged training sessions for local CBS affiliates, hosting virtual seminars where CBS journalists across the country could learn to cover global warming. Mb>In the lead-up to the 2024 presidential election, the climate team worked with local CBS affiliates to produce a series of web stories and TV segments exploring why congressional Republicans had voted against clean energy investments, even as polling showed strong local support for climate action.

That kind of journalism matters -- in part because the people who watch broadcast news tend to be older and more likely to vote.

"CBS is one of the most important voices in the American media. If they're not going to be covering climate change, that's a problem," Hertsgaard said.

So the main point of the unit was... electioneering and propagandizing people to vote for Democrats?

Yes, I agree. Thank you for admitting it.


A Paramount spokesperson didn't respond to my request for comment about why the company gutted the network's climate team, and whether CBS will still prioritize climate coverage going forward.

Here is the Real Logo of the CBS Climate Change unit.

This is not a joke. I found this at "Heated," a left-wing climate catstrophism blog.

So this is "journalism," according to these unabashed political actors:

10 While I am glad to finally see some rejection of the "climate change" scam, I am holding off on celebration until we see a major shakeup at NOAA. Trump should have eliminated the entire agency after they were caught red-handed systematically lying about climate data. Strip out the National Weather Service and anything else genuinely useful and otherwise get rid of it.

That's my marker. "Major purges and reorientation at NOAA" is *the* bellwether, in my opinion, This development is good, but those are the bastards directing policy on it.

So this isn't all that surprising. In recent days we've heard MSNBC exhorting the Party that climate change is a toxic topic, and that people's opinion of climate change rhetoric ranges from apathy to aggressive antipathy.

And of course, the thing with Bill Gates saying "we need to pivot with regard to the investments in our portfolio of evil, and invest heavily in economic colonization while pursuing our bioweapons initiatives - people have figured out we're trying to starve them, so it's time work toward enslaving them and infecting them with our shiny new diseases."

The signal has gone out - "our new reading of Marxism says we should call a moratorium on these job-killing initiatives that cost us so dearly among the laboring portion of our generally shiftless coalition."

I had both of my children in Summer. When it gets hot, you move to a cooler environment - air conditioned space, shade, and wear appropriate clothing. Stay hydrated. Make your husband fetch/haul something out in the heat.

Ta da! There's your guidance. What do I win?

Had my first in November and he was, of course, 10dys late & an ounce or two shy of 10lbs. I suffered for him. Frat boys mooed at me crossing the street once, & had I not been so huge I would have leaped into their convertible & given them a beating. I scared my husband crying about the mooing & he laughed.Then I laughed.

My old car broke down & I left it in the street I was so hot & didn't care. My mother got tears in her eyes at the airport while I was stuck in a turnstile. In labor the L&D nurses thought I was having twins due to picking up 2 heartbeats, which freaked us out.

My husband bought a window unit for the 100yr old house & our bedroom. I was only happy in a pool & floating.

Other son was born in May, a perfect solution to pregnancy is to get it done on Labor Day in September, after hiking a mountain, playing in a waterfall, & a lot of beer.

If it's a total loss then the tariffs he's imposed get undone, or have to pass through congress. I think the SCOTUS argument is only over a subset.

The case is about one specific enabler of the tariffs. If this gets shot down, he’ll do another. Even the judges who found against him acknowledged there were other ways to do it. That’s why foreign countries are bending over backward to do tariff deals. If this case could potentially shut down ALL Trump’s powers to impose tariffs, they would be playing a waiting game.

_______________________________

Vital for whom?

Anyway...here's an interesting perspective. Suppose in your free time you inadvertently stumble across a brand new form of renewable energy that is 100% beneficial to the ecosphere, limitless, and relatively easy to apply to all forms of human necessities (transportation, heating, cooling, manufacturing etc.)

What do you think happens the second you announce this miracle to the rest of the world. Here's my prediction:

1. The Government steals the patent under eminent domain and pays you as little as possible for your discovery under a liberal view of "fair compensation."

2. The patent and schematics are provided to a limited number of manufacturing companies with political cronies sitting on the Board of Directors. Various Congressmen and women immediately invest in those companies.

3. At least 12 different parties materialize out of the ether claiming that you stole their idea. This is made more complicated by the inclusion of foreign governments adding support to those parties.

4. The Environmental Movement immediately transforms back the Global Cooling scenario.

212 I dated, and was briefly engaged to, a Namibian woman while I was in Germany. We didn't have the internet at the time, so my family thought I was dating a black woman, when I called/wrote home. They were cool about it, I guess. Then I mailed a Polaroid of us together back home and they were super-enthusiastic. She looked like Lady Diana, who at the time was considered hot. I broke up with her, but I still think of that once in a while. What if I had married her and moved to Windhoek, Namibia rather than Worcester, MA? What a different life I would have had. I know I'd be rich as Croesus, but I'd be living in a walled compound.

Unconstitutional if unilaterally imposed by the President without Congressional approval. Trump is end-running the process by claiming it's a state of emergency (the loophole that allows him to act alone).

221 The case is about one specific enabler of the tariffs. If this gets shot down, he’ll do another. Even the judges who found against him acknowledged there were other ways to do it. That’s why foreign countries are bending over backward to do tariff deals. If this case could potentially shut down ALL Trump’s powers to impose tariffs, they would be playing a waiting game.

When she's dolled up, she's stunning. A quick Google search pulls up amazing pics of her. Taylor swift and half of the lovely ladies out there would not be half so lovely if denied their makeup and stylists. Her cheekbones are fantastic.

She downplays her beauty. Minimal makeup and styling. She always has yoga hair, like she just came back from hot yoga and pulled it back into a bun or ponytail. I wish she'd do something with it! But she's also a mom with several kids, so I'll cut her some slack.

All of this defending her beauty is of course separate from her cray cray. I've had fun listening to Mormon podcasters wade into her bee conspiracy theories. They find it as stupid as I do.

IQ of 175 is 5 standard deviations above the mean (100), or about 1 in 3.5million.

Women's Soccer League Player Says That the Women's Soccer League Should be Reserved for Women; Her PC Woke Beesh Teammates Attack Her

OK, so you don't want a league.

You can play with the men, in that case.

Just kidding, a local Dallas middle school boys' team -- 15 and under -- absolutely wrecked the women's national team in two straight games. You won't even be riding the bench, you'll be in the stands, watching, hoping that the cute boys notice you.

Keep the W in the National Women's Soccer League.

That was a simple ask from Angel City FC veteran Elizabeth Eddy in an op-ed for The Post last week.

The pro athlete argued, with both common sense and compassion, that her league needs to develop a standard -- as many other athletic governing bodies have -- to ensure the NWSL only fields biological women.

The issue of keeping female sports female has become an 80/20 issue in our country, so I don't think people understood just how ballsy it was for Eddy to enter the fray.

...

And so Eddy's teammates quickly denounced her op-ed.

But did they debate her proposal by using reason and substance? Nah, they just accused Eddy of being transphobic and racist.

Angel City captains Sarah Gordon and Angelina Anderson both addressed the piece in a press conference -- and the team's X account shared the video from that, posting: "Our captains spoke with courage and clarity. No one in our community should be questioned, harassed or targeted because of their identity."

What identity has to do with keeping fairness in women's sports is beyond me. Are you a biological woman, or are you a biological man?

None of that mattered to Gordon, who said the team is "hurt."

"And they are harmed by the article. And also they are disgusted by some of the things that were said in the article ... We don't agree with the things written for a plethora of reasons," she said, adding that the "undertones come across as transphobic and racist."

As a person of mixed race, Gordon added, it particularly hurt her.

Um, why would being of a "mixed race" mean genetic testing for sex be particularly hurtful?

I think this idiot means that any genetic testing -- like, to determine your race -- is racist. But this isn't about testing for race.

Adam Carolla played a clip of these idiots talking. Amusingly -- before he viewed the clip -- Carolla predicted that she would say "speaking as a mixed race woman..." and then, boom, she did just that.

If women, blacks, and "mixed race women" are so "marginalized," why do they rush to play their Identity Trump Cards as if those cards confer on them massive advantages?

Related: A Kennebukport Karen, and "member of the Select Chair Board," whatever that is -- some kind of school body -- objects to people who want to reserve girls sports and girls locker rooms for -- get this -- girls.

She claims that anyone who disagrees has, get this, "pedophilic tendencies."

AOC and the rest of the morons are fond of this argument. They claim that people who don't want transgender men showing their dicks to their little daughters are just "obsessed with what kids have between their legs." They claim that there is no way to verify someone's sex apart from forcing them to strip for a close visual inspection -- thus, the claim that anyone who wants to keep men out of girl's changing areas is someone with "pedophilic tendencies" who just wants to look a little girls' and little boys' genitals.

No matter how many times it is pointed out that it is easy to determine someone's sex without inspecting their genitals -- 1, look at their birth certificate and the sex they were "assigned" at birth by a doctor who already inspected the genitals, 2, simple cheek-swab test for sex chromosomes, 3, just by simply looking at them because these people DO NOT PASS AS THE OPPOSITE GENDER, EVEN UPON CASUAL VIEWING -- they continue to insist the only way to tell if a girl is a girl is to have her strip naked and look up her vagina.

This is their retard-level attempt at an UNO reverse on the "groomer" label.

Related: AWFL Karenning intensifies.

Kinda sort barely related: Idiot woke actress Jennifer Lawrence says she thinks she's done talking about politics because it alienates the audience. She reasons that if she makes a film that is so powerful in its messaging it will "change the world" -- note, no movie is so powerful, and such a movie would not star Katniss Everdeen/Reboot Mystique even if it did exist -- she wants people to be open to its mesmerizing message and not discounting it just because Dis Bitch Can't Shut Her Mouf About Trump.

Note that the beginning of the Adam Carolla clip I linked above is about Jennifer Lawrence's sudden realization that if she wants to remain employable, she should stop insulting half of the potential audience.

17 And we can move beyond Candace Ovens and whether she's attractive or not and go to Jennifer Lawrence in this one. I'll start.

If the scale is 1-10, and we can't choose 7, that puts rating Jennifer in a difficult position because I'm not sure she has enough "there...there" to push her up from the 6's and into the 8s. I'm going to say 6. A Denny's 6. An Olive Garden 6. Nice...enough.

If there was a clip that said "Trump endorsed Winsome" she would lose. Trump is and has been TOXIC in VA. He is everything VA LIV hate about politicians. They will only vote gentlepersons.

He is playing the politics right, as is she, to give her the best chance. Those who need to know, know he backs her. Those who don't, don't.

TBH no one cares in any real sense anymore. Its not like she isn't getting role X because she got nekkid.

But I do not want to hear her complain in another 10 years she can't get roles because Hollywood discriminates against older women.

82 "Hurt". "Harmed".

Offense is not harm.

Disagreement is certainly not harm.

But harm may be countered with harm in even the most crude systems of morality. So frame anything you please as "harm" so that you can justify ever increasing atrocities against anyone who dares oppose even your slightest whim or fancy.

97 Ain't no thing as a transgender. There is male (born that way). There is female (born that way). There are hermaphrodites (born that way and usually their chromosomes will indicate if they are male or female despite the multiple sex organs).

Then there are males PRETENDING to be females through costumes, behavior, and in some cases, cosmetic surgery. There are females PRETENDING to be male by the same process.

98 I think just about all men agree - if Women won't stand up for women's sports, why should we bother? Never cared about them much anyways, and if we go back to a pre-1940's standard for participation that's fine by me.
Pre-1940's - sports are for the strongest and most fit.
After Title 9 - men's sports are for the strongest and most fit; women's sports are special and exist to make girls feel empowered.
After Tranny's - "women's" sports are for weak men who want to make themselves feel good by beating up on women.
Transition - all tranny sports die off because nobody wants to actually see that shit.
Final resolution - same as pre-1940's, sports are for the strongest and most fit.

I want the Indiana girls basketball state semi-finals to be four teams of boys. The "trans" girls will have to take some crap from crazy Leftists, but they can just say they are supporting important principles.

Eventually, the parents and female athletes on the correct side of the 80/20 issue will return their sports to biological females only.

110 Note that the beginning of the Adam Carolla clip I linked above is about Jennifer Lawrence's sudden realization that if she wants to remain employable, she should stop insulting half of the potential audience.

Before Mother, I think, Lawrence declared she did not want Trump supporters seeing her films. Her agent or some other PR flak walked that back for her not long afterward. But I've been content to honor her request. I never go see her films now. I'll only watch them if they are streaming for "free" on some service I'm already receiving. She can stick her career rethink where the sun don't shine.

114 Lindsey Graham@LindseyGrahamSC

I had the privilege and pleasure of knowing Vice President Cheney personally and professionally for many years. We spent a lot of time hunting together, and during the course of our political lives, we interacted often. I enjoyed his company tremendously and always believed he was one of the smartest people I’ve ever known.

On foreign policy, he was unashamedly aggressive against the forces who meant harm to the United States. He had a unique ability to handle criticism from all corners of the political spectrum. This is best explained by his tremendous sense of confidence in who he was and what he believed. When that self-confidence clashed with members of both parties, he was unshaken.

Vice President Cheney lived a life of few regrets. I appreciate his decades of service to our country. My prayers are with Lynne and his entire family whom he loved dearly.

Sure. That's a part of it.

But women have made men's clubs in *general* illegal. Even if they *do* want to defend it themselves, why should I join them when they refuse to allow male-only organizations to exist?

I find the invasion of dudes in dresses into womens' sports repugnant, but I can't get worked up about it. The women themselves largely don't care (or won't say they do, for fear of eviction from the coven) and they sure as shit won't insist that male-only organizations are acceptable.

145 I have never seen the attraction of Lawrence. She's not ugly, but not gorgeous, and in a crowd she'd blend in. Bland, hooded eyes. This is my opinion as a former supermodel.

She wins an Oscar for a movie I didn't see. Famously trips to get the award, or this was Gwenneth-poo who also applies to what I am saying (altho she's a nepo baby and maybe did not trip). If US elections are rigged, what would stop Oscar elections, eh?

Then Weinstein and #MeToo and both of them won Oscars under (literally) his production company. Instead of a casting couch he wore a robe and they went to his hotel room. I might have been totally innocent but I would not go to his hotel room (well, unless Mel Gibson asked me to meet him, then I would).

Neither of these two nor Meryl said one bad word against Weinstein. Ever, that I am aware of. Then I figured out why Lawrence's star rose quickly and she and steamed vaj won Oscars.

While we will never know, I connected the nasty dots.

They don't believe they will die alone in a nursing home with strangers who don't speak English taking care of them, but they will.

Tell me they've never been an a locker room that allows children without telling me they've never been in a locker room that allows children.

Every single - women's - locker room I've ever been in where children are allowed have signs that say kids of either sex are allowed if they are below a certain age, usually five or seven, and if they are older that that they should use the locker room corresponding to the kid's own sex.

177 Since this is a sorta movie thread now...

We saw "Begonia", which is a remake of a Korean movie, "Save the Green Planet". I barely remembered STGP, which is usually not a good sign, but I like the actors involved, so we thought we'd take a chance.

The story concerns two guys who are convinced that a woman CEO of a pharmaceutical company is an alien from Andromeda and trying to enslave the human race/destroy the world. So, they kidnap her and hold her prisoner until she confesses to being an alien and allows them negotiate with the alien Emperor.

Great acting all around. Surprisingly tight if very talky script. Very dark comedy/drama with some good laughs. Very well directed. Strongly resembles the sort of movie you might've seen in the 70s. You'll probably know the ending before they get there.

This is one of those movies that is almost impossible to recommend because it is very weird and makes no excuses for its weirdness and it's rather downbeat. The weird thing about it is that it sorta places two almost exactly the same progtard points of views in conflict. That sound boring but it's not. Probably cuz of the excellent acting jobs from Jesse Plemons, Emma Stone.

That's all she was really saying there. Not that she has any change of heart, or that she doesn't still hate me and everyone like me.

Just that viewing audiences hate her and her coworkers more than they hate the Right, and when she runs her jizztrap, more them vote for the Right than if she just swallowed and shut up.

234 Michael Jordan is still very rich. Maybe not billionaire status, but he can see it from his mansion. Most athletes, albeit very rich now, will be on Broke pt5 on ESPN at some point because stoopid. Sadly, I think Lebron Jame$ is smart enough to not make dumb financial decisions, though he's not that bright (being generous).

______________________________

Jordan is worth very close to about $4 Billion. He's, also, very sharp financially (ignoring his tendency to gamble). When Charles Barkley ran into Jordan at Nike, Jordan asked him how much he made on the endorsement. Barkley reportedly told him about $13 Million. Jordan shook his head. Give it back and ask for shares in the company.

Years later Barkley thanked Jordan for the advice and probably made over 10 times the amount he would have made just taking the money up front.

235 when did this rule get imposed that we can't say "7"?
--------

Kevin Samuels (of youtube shorts fame) was the first person I heard invoke the rule. I think its a valid adjustment to the standard 1-10 scale because it FORCES hard choices to be made with the mid-level grades. For example, if you ask a co-worker how they rate their skill at some part of their job, the easy answer they often choose is "7". But once you take away 7, now they're backed into a corner. They now have to choose 8, which means their performance should be pretty dang strong, or choose 6 and admit that they need some work in that area.

With women, removing 7 makes us decide what we really think of how they rate. They're either populationaly elite (8 or 9, there are no 10s), or they're just nice looking among the average folks.

But my Serbian girlfriend was LIT. It was in no way light-hearted. Always dead serious racism - even against her brother Croats, with their soft pronunciation of certain consonants, their use of the Latin alphabet, their Roman papism, and other barbaric savagery.

We're talking about a woman who would rave at her sister that her Bosnian Serb father was only racially more pure than them because his disgusting lineage had meekly accepted the Turkish boot in the ancient past. In front of him.

Or who would brag to her Jewish long-term boyfriend (me) that Belgrade was Europe's Jew-free city, narrowly beating out the Germans, because Germans are Johnny-come-lately racists who hadn't developed the kind of practice at ethnic cleansing her people had in the Balkans.

She was a gem. A frothy, shameless chauvinist.

Lawrence is bland. I admit to not having hooded eyes, and her eye color is probably pretty and will be noticed once she has the knife whack up her lids in a blepharoplasty, one thing I will never need or want to have. I refuse fillers as I figure they would migrate to my forehead and become lumps.

That mall had a big food court where 100's of people were eating. We were looking at girls as well as eating when an 8 walked into the mall. Every eye in the place stared at her and their heads scanned like radar antenna's tracking her - the buzz in mall went quiet. That is the effect an 8 has on a crowd of people.

Its a bell shaped curve like IQ's, a 9 is the beauty equivalent of somebody with an IQ of 160, a 10 is the equivalent of an IQ of 175. Yes they exist, at a ratio of about 1 person in 100,000. That is rare enough that you are highly unlikely to meet a 10 unless you work in an industry like fashion - movies - or men's entertainment. A 7 is in the top 2.5% of all women in appearance.

New Jersey Polling Places Evacuated Due to Bomb Threats; Communist Jihadist Zohran Mamdani Blames... Trump

Republicans show up to vote on voting day. So left-wingers call in bomb threats, to stop us from voting.

The Blaze calls these hoax threats "swattings" -- and swattings have been a left-wing tactic for years.

Some polling locations were targeted by bomb threats on Election Day, but officials said that no voting was disrupted because of the incidents.

The New York Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation said they were investigating an "elaborate swatting attempt" at some New York City polling locations.

County officials then said that the threats were all 'malicious, intimidation-driven acts intended to disrupt the democratic process.'

Police sources said that "terroristic" threats were sent via email about the polling locations at Washington Heights, the West Village, and Midtown.

At the same time, New Jersey police were responding to bomb threats in at least seven counties.

New Jersey Lt. Gov. Tahesha Way also serves as the state's highest election official and said there were "no credible threats" and encouraged voters to resist intimidation.

"We are doing everything in our power to protect voters and poll workers and coordinate closely with state, local and federal partners to ensure a smooth and safe election," she added. "We encourage every eligible voter to exercise their right to vote before 8:00 p.m. today."

Polling sites in Bergen, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and Passaic Counties all received the emailed bomb threat, according to N.J. Attorney General Matthew Platkin.

"Law enforcement officers have responded at each affected polling place, and they have worked swiftly to secure these polling locations and ensure the safety of every voter," Platkin added in a statement. "Some of these polling locations have already reopened to the public. At others, voters will be directed to a nearby polling location to cast their ballot."

Update: Trump fired back at the jihadist.

On Tuesday, as New Jerseyans went to cast their ballots, bomb threats forced voters out of multiple polling places. While the threats were found to be non-credible, they still caused a disruption to those looking to exercise their right to vote for the Garden State's next governor. When asked about the threats in his neighboring state, Mamdani made comments that raised eyebrows and rocked the West Wing.

Mamdani called the threats "incredibly concerning" and said that he believed they were "an illustration of the attacks we're seeing on our democracy."

"We have to understand this as part of the general approach the Trump administration has taken to trying to intimidate voters with baseless allegations of voter fraud as a means of trying to repress the voice of Americans across this country," Mamdani said.


White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Mamdani's remarks were "completely irresponsible" and not based in fact.

"I think they are completely irresponsible, and they are based on zero evidence. And I think this is just another example of how the Democrat Party unfortunately stands for nothing. All they stand against is President Donald Trump. And I think it's quite sad to see that we have someone at the top of the ticket on an Election Day today saying such things about the president, when he obviously had absolutely nothing to do with those threats," Leavitt said in response to a question from Fox News' Jacqui Heinrich.


The Communist Jihadist claimed that it must be Trump who's trying to stop Republicans from voting:

How's Ciattarelli doing? Not sure. Scott Pressler reported good turnout in Republican areas. (Which is everywhere except the NYC and Philly suburbs/bedroom communities, and Newark. Unfortunately those are high-population areas.)

Monmouth County is Republican-leaning. People are saying that Ciattarelli needs higher turnout here to overcome Democrats' Philly/NYC suburb advantage than what we've gotten so far.

Google's Artificial Communism:

New Jersey Governor's Race Tightens with Ciattarelli's Orthodox Jewish Surge

In New Jersey's gubernatorial election on November 4, 2025, Republican Jack Ciattarelli challenges Democrat Mikie Sherrill's narrow polling lead through strong support from Orthodox Jewish communities in Lakewood and endorsements from President Donald Trump. Early voting saw nearly 750,000 ballots cast, with Democrats leading by 300,000, but Republican turnout reached 36.8% of the total, up from previous cycles. Sherrill emphasizes moderate policies on abortion rights and economic relief while criticizing Ciattarelli's Trump alignment.

I can't even imagine the horror Tucker Carlson must be feeling:


Meanwhile: Pennsylvania polling places in red areas are, get this, "Running out of ballots."

23 "Chester County polling locations are running out of provisional ballots and voters are being turned away."

How many times is this gonna happen before the GOP -- or the GOP candidates themselves -- gets its head out of its ass and makes sure ahead of time there are enough ballots at the polling stations?

We saw this in AZ with Kari Lake. 2x. Did nobody from her campaign seek to confirm ahead of time that they had the right ballots in their major voting center?

Yes, we are being screwed by protista Democraps. Yes, it shouldn't happen. But it keeps happening, and we never do a thing about it.

The left uses it to their advantage with shenanigans like this. If you vote early you don’t run out of ballots. And if there is a fuckup with voting you can always come back the next day. Voting on E-Day, you don’t have that luxury.

In my personal experience, Fen, moose limbs don't bother with deodorant. I once had to suffer a train ride from Paris to Salzburg with a couple who stank the place up. It was hideous. Later, at the nice hotel where we were staying, this same couple tried to get on the elevator with me. By pure accident (seriously) I shut the elevator door on the woman and rode up alone, snickering to myself. Unsure if they stunk then or not.

They do.
The provisional is a different type of ballot though because it has to be checked after voting (and before counting) to make sure that person is legitimate.

A normal ballot is (theoretically) anonymous and has no identifiable information (even though a lot of states don't understand that.)

A provisional has to have two layers, like a mail-in. One to ID and check if person is on the rolls, (for example, they went to wrong precinct,...) and then the anonymous vote.

Given technology, and assuming no fraudulent intent, there is no reason not to send blank ballot sheets to each precinct, and print ballots up for each voter. That is what we do in my area.

On Election Day and the days leading up to it Trump was the favorite in betting markets. Poly market had him 55-60% consistently. And throughout Election Day that number rose even before a single vote was counted. It was based on reports of turnout in key areas. Trump people were showing up Kamal weren’t.

She's gone off the deep end now. For example, she thinks ISRAEL/TEH Jews are the problem, oppressing and killing Christians. (I'd have to ask my wife for her other positions, but she's clearly moving left into the "OPPRESSION!" matrix.)

It seems there might be something weird going on with young, "conservative" women. Maybe its realizing how much they've been lied to and start to believe ALL the conspiracy theories are true. Either way, it's weird to personally see the "Candace Owensing" of someone you know.

My locality had a massive bond measure to demolish much of downtown to create a "walkable" downtown.

They led with the upgrades to police and fire which weren't even 1/4 of the cost.

Thankfully, people were really angry and it got voted down. Now the city council is up for election and I HOPE the "No" council members dominate.

203 Given technology, and assuming no fraudulent intent, there is no reason not to send blank ballot sheets to each precinct, and print ballots up for each voter. That is what we do in my area. You put in the blank ballot sheet, vote, and it prints out your filled out ballot to review before you put it in the lockbox. Then, there is no excuse that "we ran out of ballots for one party".

I agree. I am engineer and have worked with information systems and doc. control a lot, and my ideal system would use standard paper, and standard laser printers. Stuff you can buy in office depot.

The security has to be once in lock box, and then counted. Counting could be done by hand, or with standard scanners that are open source and competitive so many companies can make and sell. This is all very simple stuff that the contractors hired by government made as complex as possible for revenue.

So what to you do in this case when the roll book has been tampered with?
Posted by: FeatherBlade

--------------

This is the issue. The roll book should be (must be) public, and must be locked down before voting with enough time that people can verify that it is legitimate. (by checking addresses, canvasing, knocking on doors.) This is why registration closes. But dems made it all electronic, and then went to same day registration. This makes it impossible for PUBLIC to verify.

Then on vote day, there should be representative of all major parties to verify that the voter is on roll book. That is one of the key purposes of parties. Without oversight the other side can and will cheat.

It is all very complicated and the country has lost our understanding of how a secure system operates.

It's because there's videos for Israel of Christians being spat at, yelled at, and the like, and no one is willing to take the middle ground, whis is: Israel has a lot of chauvanists/supremacists of its own, but they run nothing and are generally seen as loons.

The more everyone condemns any/all criticism if Israeli or Jewish issues as antisemitic conspiracy, the worse this will get, especially when they are flattening cities to the horizon.

255 I do think the paper ought to be security paper with micro printing or other feature, to deter someone printing up fakes.
Posted by: Thomas Paine


-----------

This is a peeve.

It is impossible to have those security features that are both (a) hard to copy, and (b) anonymous.

It sounds secure, but it is a distraction. Let them print all they want, the security has to be to prevent fraud from entering the system. That happens at that table with the old ladies checking off voters, and then in the lock box, and then counting.

Trump talked about security paper too, and it makes me think the people he is talking to about this are clueless.

267 Some states have "solved" the secure paper problem by putting QR codes on the ballots.

Yikes -- there goes the anonymous vote.

Votes need to be anonymous to prevent vote buying. The ballots also need to be public after counting to prevent fraud. Chose any two:
- anonymous vote
- fraud detection by public after voting by showing ballots
- secure paper

I wish the GOP would read the last half of that statement and then study its implications. "We" don't have a "really large GOP turnout" when Trump isn't on the ballot because "we" don't support the GOP--we support Trump. IF the GOP would like to "our" party, they need to move to the Trump positions of *winning* rather than the GOP position of "all grift, all the time, and play nice with the Dems".

294 The average height for women in the United States is 5 feet 3.5 inches (161.3 cm), based on data collected from 2015 to 2018 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and reported in 2021.
This average has remained relatively stable over the past two decades.
Height varies by ethnicity, with non-Hispanic white women being the tallest at an average of 5 feet 4.3 inches (163.3 cm), followed by non-Hispanic Black women at 5 feet 4 inches (162.5 cm), while Asian American women have an average height of 5 feet 1.5 inches (156.2 cm).

Election Day votes: ~717,000 ballots cast (polls opened at 6 a.m. and remain open until 9 p.m.).
Early votes (Oct. 25–Nov. 2): 735,000 ballots (a 335% increase from 2021's early voting total of ~169,000).

Much of the system in the blue machine areas is designed to automate it at this point. CO's mail-in ballots (that's all ballots, of course) show whether the ballot is registered Democrat or not through the cutouts in envelope, to make it easier to just discard or mangle them.

Chastened? No. If anything, they're probably more committed to retaining their strongholds at all costs. This doesn't matter in CA, CO, IL, MA, CT and a few others. It *shouldn't* matter in NJ, which is probably why they're going so hard.

Ugh. I've heard enough about Owens and Carlson and Fuentes. Let them run their mouths, and stop yammering about them. If anyone wants to debate these people, they are more than happy to engage. You can hear them all day doing that, and often simply talking to each other. It's never particularly well-spent time, but it's available.

If everyday people on the Right want to debate America's position vis-a-vis Israel, I'd suggest they should probably speak much more to/about people with a good faith anti-Israel position. There are many; Dave Smith and Steve Bannon both jump immediately to mind.

There is a *lot* of good faith anti-Israel sentiment on the rank-and-file Right these days. While it's fun to yammer on that Owens is a barking-mad lunatic, or that Tucker is a grifter, or that Fuentes is an overweight homosexual, the febrile paranoiac Jew-hater segment of the electorate who listens to their silly nonsense isn't really who needs to hear the opposing viewpoint. It's the people who listen to reasonable people.

That's who you need to convince - not single-issue anti-Jew people.

Heh. We must live in the same city.

If an election is in an even year, Republicans sweep everything. Local elections however are in odd years. Turnout is abysmal like 25%. And the left wins every single fucking race.City council, school board, library board, mayor, janitor (ok I made that one up).

It’s easy. They get all the unions out to vote. Nobody else bothers. And the unions elect people who give them raises by increasing taxes. Rinse and repeat every 2 years. I do t get it and I’ve stopped trying to get it.

And no it’s not fraud. The county is Republican and they run elections. County seats weirdly are in even year elections.

Starmer Sycophant
@sirwg202110

Muslim supporter of Zohran Mamdani at a New York voter mobilisation rally: "If 75% of Muslims vote, they'll be at our feet, asking what to do for us."

The power of the Muslim Vote. Going to be fun with the Mamdani and Sadiq Khan double act.


The people scrambling to board your ship don't necessarily want to join your crew.

Sometimes -- oftentimes -- they're just pirates who want to take it over and force you to be slaves manning the oars.

Is it fair to brand Mamdani with the admissions of his supporters? Well, I know that when one single old-woman Republican posed a question to John McCain in 2008 stating that Obama was "a terrorist," every single conservative or Republican voter was demanded to denounce that statement and John McCain had to go on TV essentially campaigning for his opponent, vouching for Obama that he was not a terrorist, not a radical, and in fact, would be a pretty great president.

Trump says the obvious, though many will claim he's speaking more of the Devil's Lies:

"Any Jewish person that votes for Zohran Mamdani, a proven and self professed JEW HATER, is a stupid person!!!" Trump posted on Truth Social.

And Trump is warning that NYC will not be getting the large amounts of subsidizing the new Communist-Islamist City will need to simply continue existing:


I'll do that guy one better: Why don't blue states just make it official and secede?

We promise we won't fight too hard to keep you.

Anyways, to draw out some noodling I was doing a couple of ONTs ago, I got Mamdani's voters down to something like 14-15% given the typically low turnout of NYC mayoral races. Of that percent, how many are actually counting on free buses, free childcare, etc, considering some number of them are rich kids who aren't relying on freebies?

I wanted to project riots and violent demonstrations when Mamdani inevitably fails his promises, but maybe there just aren't enough people for it.

So, cancel all my predictions of violent protests and people throwing beer cans at him like they did David Dinkins.

But I could never vote for either Mamdani or Cuomo. They are both too evil. I will go so far as voting for some RINO. Maybe, just maybe, a Sinema-Fetterman type. But not for either of those two. Do you want a Califate or the Cosa Nostra? I'd stick with Sliwa if I were still in NY.

If he's taking advice from London's Muslim mayor, that's almost a certainty.

The NYPD will become more "diverse" but in reality it will become an ideological goon squad for Mamdani to transform NYC into a sharia-compliant city-state.

117 Ted Cruz calls Zohran Mamdani an actual communist jihadist. I thought regular Democrats were communist socialists? Because that's what they've said for decades. I'm so confused.

He does realize that you cannot be both communist and Jihadist, right?

They are still using the list of words from Obama’s first win. Marxist communist socialist Muslim etc… they don’t know what any of it means. My new favorites are ‘Marxist fascist’ and ‘radical leftist democrat antifa’. ‘Communist jihadist’ is pretty good third.

"He hates America...which is why he's running for office"? Also, as if NYers would *ever* listen to a word Ted fucking Cruz has to say lol

They think calling him a communist is going to dissuade people, while Trump has a Great Gatsby themed Halloween party hours before SNAP is cut off. Communism is only getting more popular.

They’ve never read the book. It’s not kind to rich people. It’s like watching Scarface and coming away with “I should be a drug kingpin.”

Old people hear words like *communist* or *socialist* and think "East Germany". Young people hear them and think "Norway," and it doesn't sound so bad.

____________________

I have to be honest. I don't know which scenario you think will be over relatively quickly. If Mamdani is elected he's hell bent on changing the criminal code to accommodate criminals. And, his financial plans are unsustainable. Just take the MTA (Mass Transit Authority). They are $45 Billion in debt with $64 Billion in announced upgrades. That's just one facet of NY. They're tax payers will Exodus making their financial condition 10 times worse.

Or, the tantrum scenario, which I suspect would be a catalyst to nationwide unrest among the ANTIFA retards. NY will cut their own throats and do all they can to avoid Federal intervention. And, we're not talking about the standard supporters of a political candidate here. We're talking about Middle East money, personnel and "true believers." They don't go away of put much thought into strategic endeavors. They just destroy, kill, rob and burn.

Whatever happens today, it's going to be a long term.

Not what he said, to be fair. He did not say non-Muslims will be at the feet of Muslims.

He said if the entirety of the Muslim vote turns out, "they" (not specified) "would be at our feet, looking for us, looking for what to do for us, not in symbolic, but in reality". The charitable and reasonable interpretation is this is noting politicians will need to serve the interests of Muslims if they all vote.

The OP is making the statement inflammatory when it is reasonably not.

Posted by: Eeyore (Is, Eum) at November 04, 2025 02:41 PM (s0JqF)


Cuomo would be a center left mayor because he wants to rehabilitae his image. He'd be more like Adams or Bloomberg, still a lefty, but more or less someone who is trying to fix the city so in 2028 or 2032 he can say "look how I fixed NYC"

Mamdani on the other hand would win by being a communist, so it would just reenforce his belief communism is a winning strategy. He'd move even more to the left as mayor and it would encourage more communist to run around the country.

Cuomo is a sack of shit, but also and opportunist and someone who wants more, so he'd do what he has to get higher, which means not be a psycho leftist, since those won't win a general for president.

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor

New York allows candidates to be nominees of multiple parties aka Conservative and Republican, Liberal Party and Democrat. Minor parties in NY can allow candidates to appear on their ticket from a major party or run their own. So Mamdami can appear on the Working Family Party line as well as a separate Democrat Party line on the ballot. Ditto for Sliwa. Cuomo is running independent so no additional party line apparently.

Posted by: tired observer at November 04, 2025 02:48 PM (WDjG6)

206 Regarding Sliwa: the thing about this is that the Democrat party split over and the slightly worse candidate getting the nomination . Why is it the Republican candidate’s job to stand down?

Remove the personalities and see that these people like Bill Ackman, who have been funding every Democrat candidate that led them down this path , are choosing to blame someone else - Sliwa — for this mess. It’s not Sliwa’s job, nor the Republican party’s job, to make it easier for them. At some point they have to take ownership for this clusterf&$@.

Midtown has a lot of Koreans, who won't be voting for Mamdani. The upper West/East side wine Mom's will say they'll vote Mamdani, but they have a fetish for a a dominant male and they see that in Cuomo. Even Bronx based Hispanics and blacks are less likely to vote for Mamdani as they aren't fans of Indians.

The most he'll get are NYU dorms. Mamdani's votes will all come from the other borough Indiana and Muslims, as well as the Brooklyn and Astoria 40 year olds and under who think the NYC of the 80s was cool, since they didn't live it.

After 2024, I joined the county party and attended the monthly meetings. What a colossal waste of time. The party leader had an agenda, used whatever maneuvering to shut down discussion or alternative ideas from the floor, and it just turned into a fund raising event an updates on various smaller groups of old people having weekly or monthly meetups at cafes and such.

if you've ever been to London in the last decade, you undoubtedly notice the insane dystopian Ozymandias-level self-congratulatory notices on literally everything, assigned credit to "Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan," no matter how trivial, or how litle he had to do with it.

Everywhere you look:

"This new escalator is from Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan."

"458 new low-income housing units coming to this space soon -- Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan."

"Clean air and safe water, thanks to Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan."

Sometimes, even more creepily, they now leave out his name, but never ever append a "the" before "Mayor,", so the newer signs say,

"Mayor of London encourages you to use bike lanes where possible."

Islamophobia is a crime. -- Mayor of London."

Like, they've drilled it into your head so much, they nw want you to think of his only by his honorific, like calling a king "Your Excellency," instead of by his actual name.

266 sorry to say, don't count on Christians on the whole to vote effectively.
Many in my family and in my neck of the woods have such severe TDS they are convinced a vote for any not-democrat is a matter of conscience, because orange man evil.
Ergo, ALL republicans evil.
My niece's husband is christ-conscience-voting for Jay Jones, because as a Dem he will stop school shootings, and trump is just so bad, it is not who anyone should be, as a true christian.
I am not making that up.

We won't be following you as you are blind. Texas Hispanic vote went 55% for Trump in 24. Overall Hispanic men went for Trump in excess of 50%. Hispanic women are following. It is predicted that in 26 and definitely by 28, the GOP will get the overall majority of hispanic votes. You see, many of them don't see themselves as brown. They see themselves as white, and are starting to vote like it. Eliminating illegals who no doubt are in that 24 election number will drive it even further to the right.

James Comey Accuses Trump of Political Weaponization. Then the US Attorney Prosecuting His Case Presented His Emails, Showing His Intention to Please Hillary Clinton and Secure Her Election.

And secure his own position in the would-be Hillary Clinton administration he wanted to play Internal Spymaster and Dissident-Hunter in.


Federal prosecutors revealed Monday they have unearthed a trove of personal emails showing then-FBI Director James Comey openly talked in the days before the 2016 election that he expected to be working soon for President-elect Hillary Clinton and was being kept apprised by a top FBI aide on efforts to anonymously provide information to the news media.

"Well done my friend. Who knew this would. E [sic] so uh fun," Comey wrote in an early November 2016 email after then-FBI special government employee Dan Richman briefed the FBI director on Richman's efforts to provide information and guidance to The New York Times on an article involving Clinton's email scandal.

The emails were referenced in a bombshell court filing by acting U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan and her deputy, Tyler Lemmons in which the government rejected Comey's argument that he was being maliciously prosecuted for misleading Congress about actions he took as FBI director.

Halligan cited and attached to the filing numerous emails in which Comey was clearly aware that Richman was working to provide information anonymously to news outlets about the Clinton email case and that he expected those outreach efforts would end with Clinton defeating Donald Trump in the November 2016 election.

"Some day they will figure it out. And as [Individual 1 and Individual 2] point out, my decision will be one a president-elect Clinton will be very grateful for (although that wasn't why I did it)," Comey wrote Richman in one such email in late October 2016.

Halligan's filing said the emails showed Comey was aware of and encouraging Richman's contacts with the media, contrary to his claims to Congress.

"Consistent with the above-described correspondence, Richman corresponded extensively with members of the media regarding or on behalf of the defendant, including in an anonymous capacity," the DOJ court filing argued.

Comey has also lied and maintained that he never knew -- nay, never suspected! -- that the "intelligence" he based opening cases on Trump and his associates on was simply some oppo-research garbage paid for by Hillary Clinton. He has also denied knowing that Hillary Clinton cooked up the plan to claim that Trump was a "RUSSIAN AGENT."

Some handwritten notes may prove that Comey has repeatedly committed perjury in claiming that.


"The discovery of the handwritten notes is relevant considering the defendant's prior testimony on September 30, 2020. Of note, during that hearing, the defendant was questioned by Senator Graham of South Carolina and Senator Hawley of Missouri," the filing noted. "The questions focused on whether the defendant remembered 'being taught' of 'U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's approval of a plan concerning U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections as a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server.'

"The defendant responded by stating that 'it doesn't ring any bells with me' and 'I don't know what that refers to' and 'I don't remember receiving anything that is described in that letter,'" the filing added. "Despite this testimony, the defendant's handwritten notes dated September 26, 2016, read: 'HRC plan to tie Trump.'"

As you may know, Comey hired his pal Daniel Richman and gave him a top secret security clearance for the express purpose of making it legal to leak top secret documents to Richman, with Richman then instructed to leak that information to friendly Regime Media.


"After the defendant sent the October 2016 letter the defendant emailed extensively with Daniel Richman," the DOJ said in its Monday court filing. "Much of the correspondence occurred via the defendant's use of a personal email account and Mr. Richman's use of an email account associated with Columbia University."

"Make sure you keep your eyes shut. The country can't seem to handle your finding stuff," Richman wrote to Comey on Oct. 29, 2016. Comey replied: "Thanks for the battling you have done against unreason. This is a strange time. B[u]t we press on."

More detail in the actual article, showing Comey plainly discussing the fact that Richman's role was to serve as a cut-out for illegal leaks from Comey to Regime Media allies, such as Michael Schmitt of the NYT.

Below, Comey openly discusses uses this cut-out scheme to violate the DOJ's strict rules about not releasing information about investigations close to an election day, if that information could influence the election.

...

"Let's imagine the Times had a policy against writing new articles close to elections if the articles might influence the election. Consistent with that policy they would avoid writing this week if sources told them that the FBI was looking at Huma Abedin's emails. But let's imagine that they wrote a very high profile piece in July that sources lead them to now conclude was materially inaccurate. Would they correct it or stay silent because they have a policy to avoid action near elections? I suspect they would quickly conclude that either course is an 'action' and the choices are either reporting or concealing but there is no longer a 'neutral' option because of the reporting in July. I also suspect they would resolve very quickly to choose the action of disclosing because to remain silent is to actively mislead, which has a wide range of very bad consequences."

Comey added: "Why is this so hard for them to grasp? All the stuff about how we were allegedly careful not to take actions on cases involving other allegations about which we have never spoken is irrelevant. I love our practice of being inactive near elections. But inactivity was not an option here. The choices were act to reveal or act to conceal."

What he's talking about there is disclosures that additional classified emails had been found on Huma Abedin's computer, after Comey had already "exonerated" Clinton all wrongdoing. Comey really wants Regime Media to put out the word that those new, never-before-analyzed classified emails being shared among unauthroized persons on an unsecure toilet-stall server would not change his analysis and should not tarnish the sterling reputation for candor and transparency enjoyed by one Hillary Rodham Clinton.

So he justified releasing classified information close to an election by saying, If I don't reveal this information, people might think Hillary Clinton is crooked and did something wrong in sharing classified information with unauthorized persons on a toilet-stall server, so I'm going to leak information to my friend to in turn use to write an op-ed in the NYT assuring the public that it's all a-ok and approved by James Comey as No Big Deal.

And he's claiming this workaround doesn't violate the silence-before-elections rule, because without him speaking up -- through his puppet Richman -- people might get the idea that Hillary Clinton did something wrong.

More from JusttheNews. Prosecutors amply rebutted the claim that Everybody Does It and that Comey is only being "selectively prosecuted" because Trump is "vindictive."

"A large majority of the documents were on the floor in five burn bags. Room 9582 was then subject to an inventory for the documents that were located inside. Investigators located hundreds of pages relating to Crossfire Hurricane ... and the then-classified appendix to the 2016 Durham Special Counsel Report (now partially declassified)," the DOJ said. "Additionally, inside a locked safe within Room 9582, investigators located copies of handwritten notes of the defendant when he was the Director of the FBI."

The DOJ said that Comey's handwritten notes "were not known to any prior investigative teams."

The DOJ lawyers insisted in their Monday court filing that "there is a history of prosecuting high-level Executive Branch officials who have lied to Congress about their official actions" and that "it is hardly surprising that the Executive would prioritize the prosecution of high-level agency officials who have lied to Congressional investigators about their official actions."

"The societal interests in this prosecution are readily apparent and overwhelming," the DOJ added of its charges against Comey. "The defendant is a former FBI Director who lied to Congress about his conduct while at the helm of the Nation's primary federal law-enforcement agency. His prosecution implicates societal interests of the highest order."

26 Who makes a motion to dismiss an indictment for vindictive prosecution?

Yea, the legal theory does exist, but it's very weak sauce, unless there's a history of earlier prosecutions. Like if you get prosecuted and win, and then hit again with another similar charge, and win, and hit again, etc. At some point, the judges see a naked personal vendetta and react accordingly.

But here, there's real evidence of real crimes. Smart defendants don't make motions they are almost certainly gonna lose. Either Comey's legal team knows something I don't, or this motion is mostly for political consumption.

The signature they have on file for us is from the DOT, from signing for a license, which was also created via chicken scratch stylus pen.

I signed at the polling place, said "bah, close enough", then the kiosk pulled the one they have on file next to it and it was darn near identical. The lady running the thing got a kick out of it. So did I, to be honest.

According to articles it was found along with a lot of other documents last Spring. Many of the documents were in burn bags that were parked in a rarely used SCIF at FBI HQ.

The logs for the room showed it rarely been used until after the 2016 election when Trump won. Then it started getting busy culminating with it being very busy in the days before Trump's inauguration.

275 According to articles it was found along with a lot of other documents last Spring. Many of the documents were in burn bags that were parked in a rarely used SCIF at FBI HQ.

That was likely the thing Kash mentioned on Joe Rogan back in like March or April. Everyone here piled on him for not immediately unleashing all the evidence on the Democrats, but Trump 2.0 is all about paying fanatical attention to doing things by the book so that Boasberg is reliably overturned. In this case, with an added dose of James O'Keefe-ian "don't lead with your biggest bombshell" strategy.

Posted by: ... at November 04, 2025 01:54 PM (1fd8X)
_______________________________

Just the opposite, IMO. The evidence burning was likely assigned to lackeys of Comey. He, incorrectly, assumed they would follow through. But, someone with a brain figured out that should things go sideways (like they have), they would be the patsy. No paper trail. No written orders to dispose of confidential information illegally. So, they left the information intact in the burn bags. ANYTHING THAT GOES IN A BURN BAG IS EITHER SHREDDED OR PULPED. That's standard procedure no matter where you work with burn bags.

The fact that it wasn't suggested someone was holding back a Trump card (pardon the pun) in the event that things played out as they did. I'd wager whoever those lackeys were, they are now important whistleblowers on Comey. Kash Patel made a point of saying that he, personally, discovered the burn bag treasure. Whether he did or not is unimportant. Someone pointed him there.

278 > Why was the material in the burn room unburned?
---------
I have never believed this to be true... that documentation was found in a burn bag or in some hidden closet. More likely the methods and means are secret and this is as easy and explanation as anything else.

Otherwise it's OPSEC malpractice by people trained in OPSEC to perform their jobs. Which, I guess, is completely possible given the fucktards we're dealing with. So, one would expect a few more people to have been rounded up on account of being complete idiots.

But I still doubt it.

I beleive it. These guys were so unbelievably cocky they wrote notes about everything. When Comey was interviewed by Nicole Wallace after the election, by the way remember Wallace is NYT's Mike Schmidt's wife, he smirked that he set up General Flynn by sending a couple guys to interview him without checking with WH Counsel cause Trump is so dumb.

They had the whole game rigged. They forced people to recuse, got their Special Counsel and then it was a done deal. Until it wasn't. And by then it was probably too late to even think about all the crap they left behind.

It's a minor miracle Trump got through everything and we are here today. But he did and I've never doubted for a second that Kash and Bondi will do whatever they can to expose all of it and charge whomever they can. They might not be perfect but they are not corrupt.

Posted by: Random PJ
______________________

Oh, it's better than that. The DOJ waited until Comey's lawyers filed to have the case dismissed (which occurred just the other day). The DOJ responded this new information confirming the burn bag information is instrumental in his indictment AND Comey's attorneys just wasted their time with the hail Mary dismissal filing. Lots of billable hours on that. I'm guessing the prosecution of Comey isn't just for the goal of conviction. It's to make it expensive, time consuming, anxiety laden as well.

Well not really. The story about the burn bags was from months ago. They had this when they filed on him. Comey's lawyers moved to dismiss the charges. Patially hoping it would work, but even if it didnt it woukd force the govt to tip its hand a bit. They probably have even more. They just didnt need it.

I mostly hear it in terms of Pentagon programs that don't actually produce anything real, but keep a lot of people having meetings, speccing out work to be performed, having more meetings, paying the contractors' bills, and having meetings about the meetings. It's like the old Keynesian parable about digging holes so you can fill them back up, but with a lot of well-manicured noses sniffing around all the money sloshing around. I guess the concept is that it doesn't actually have any impact or purpose beyond the people benefiting from doing it.

Dick Cheney Dead at 84

Google's left-wing Artificial Progressivism:

Former Vice President Dick Cheney Dies at 84 from Heart Complications
Last updated

9 minutes ago

Dick Cheney, the influential vice president under George W. Bush and key architect of the post-9/11 war on terror, died on November 3, 2025, at his Virginia home due to complications from pneumonia and cardiac disease, surrounded by family including his wife Lynne and daughters Liz and Mary. His five-decade career featured roles as White House chief of staff under Gerald Ford, Wyoming congressman, defense secretary overseeing the 1991 Gulf War, and vice president pushing the 2003 Iraq invasion and Patriot Act expansions. Cheney's legacy includes praise for bolstering U.S. security amid criticism over the human toll of post-9/11 wars, estimated at over 940,000 direct deaths by Brown University's Costs of War project.

Although obituaries identify Cheney as a rock-ribbed Republican, of course he became a progressive Democrat in the last ten years of his life.

Cheney suffered from heart disease for decades and fell out of favor among many Republicans in the Trump era, even famously casting a vote in the 2024 election for Democrat Kamala Harris after a long feud with America's 47th president.

Ed Morrissey sums up Cheney's legacy.

Republicans also transformed, in part because of the failure of Cheney's efforts to change the world through democratic reforms imposed by American arms. Referred to as "neoconservative" both then and now, it required the same kind of global engagement and massive resource expenditures, only to not just fail but also backfire in key ways. Cheney certainly didn't intend the failures, and there were some significant successes too, such as the way in which our forward strategy against terrorists prevented more attacks on the American homeland, at least on the scale of 9/11. Cheney never tired of pointing that out, and with justification.

Still, the impossibility of that overall mission became clear, and with it the costs of failure. Put together with rising resentment over poorly managed "free trade" with China and other countries that got shrugged off as the costs for the net benefits of globalization, populists demanded a party that focused on the working class and their concerns, as well as a return to an America-centric policy set. That opened the door for Donald Trump, who flirted with a presidential run in 2011 only to commit four years later. He blew more than a dozen Republican politicians of the older order out of the water, because Trump spoke to voters who had found themselves marginalized when both parties embraced "globalization" over support for American workers.

Accurate. Cheney embraced an unapologetic, no-hedging, no reaching-across-the-aisle, no compromise "strong form" of neoconservatism, meaning there was no hiding its failure when it failed.

He could not blame-shift or claim that "Real Neoconservatism has never been tried" or that he only got to implement half of the neocon foreign policy, and we'd have to implement the full 100% to determine if it worked or not.

It was tried, we implemented 100% of it, and it failed so spectacularly that former neocons such as myself (and many of you) turned away forcefully, permanently, and in revulsion.

Which did have the salubrious effect of ushering in a new theory of government and foreign policy -- which largely was the refurbishing of an old theory -- personified in the unlikely avatar of a loudmouth real estate tycoon from Queens, NY.

At least in that respect, Cheney provided a service. Political questions are rarely tested in such laboratory-perfect sort of experiment, and Cheney finally put unapologetic neoconservatism to the acid test and delivered us all the results. They were not the results we wanted, but they were the results we needed.

Alas, many Americans died trying to vindicate the now-obviously-absurd political claim that we can or should attempt to politically and culturally transform backwards and barbaric societies, hundreds or even thousands of years away from reaching modernity organically, by sending in a several tens of thousands of American fighters to trade bullets and bodies with savages and terrorists for a decade.

We tried. It may be called a Nobel Failure, or just a failure. It was a costly failure in terms of money and precious Americans' lives (and limbs) lost. It failed, and now we know.

As I've never stopped regretting: We elected George W. Bush and Dick Cheney on the theory that the military exists for war-fighting and destroying the enemy, not to serve as armed Social Engineers and Progressive Reformers to advance primitive societies. We elected them to make sure that Bill Clinton's folly in Haiti -- which involved 25,000 "peace keepers" -- would never be repeated. The US military would henceforth be deployed only to destroy an enemy and secure an advantage for the US, not to "nation build" failed or backwards states barely removed from the Dark Ages.

Instead, we wound up being signed up for a decade-plus of nation-building on a scale that Bill Clinton would have blanched at.

Bill Clinton played around with using the US armed forces as an evangelizing force for progressivism. Dick Cheney took Bill Clinton's early experiments and made them into the central animating theory of US foreign policy.

Dick Cheney tested the limits of overwhelming American military might and to our great regret, he found those limits, at enormous loss of American life.

RIP to Dick Cheney and more importantly, RIP to neoconservatism, nation-building, and chasing our tails around the world in pursuit of absurd utopian goals like "bringing freedom to Islam" and bringing reform and democracy to those who "hate our values."

It's election day in America. I hope for the best, but I'm prepared for the worst.

How about you? What are your guesses on:

NYC Mayor?

Va AG?

Va Gov?

NJ Gov?

I think maybe California's gerrymandering proposition, Prop 50, goes to the polls today as well. It's expected to pass by 8-10 points.

My own guesses:

The Communist Hamas terrorist wins.

In VA, Miyares wins the AG slot, which is important because Virginia will not be suing Trump over every little thing, and I think he can keep a lid on more forced transgenderism in school.

I don't have similar hopes for the governor slot. Winsome Earle-Sears has been behind by 5-10 points throughout the whole election season.

In NJ... I'm optimistic. I think Ciatterelli could pull out the win. But I'm not confident. NJ is a corrupt state.

27 NJ is already apparently receiving bomb threats at polling places, though it's split as it's right leaving Toms River and left leaning Patterson.

In 2024 Democrats claimed republicans would make threats, but we know Democrats just accuse others of exactly what Democrats are doing. It's a perfect plan for Dems. You can suppress turnout in republican areas where votes matter, while also claiming to be victims in areas where votes don't matter, as historically Dems just stuffed ballots there (places like Paterson, Newark, Camden, and all of Hudson Country) They'll then demand extended voting hours, which allows them to fabricated the needed votes in those extra 2 hours.

All voting "irregularities" benefit Democrats since they control the process in these states.

64 "It was tried, we implemented 100% of it, and it failed so spectacularly that former neocons such as myself (and many of you) turned away forcefully, permanently, and in revulsion."

Yes and no. I'm not sure what we got was what was promised.

Reagan was basically a neocon as that term was originally used. Neocon theory itself is not controversial to conservatives: strong military, pro-America foreign policy, steady domestic growth, reduced welfare, etc. All those were very successful (and still are)

What wasn't originally part of neocon theory was what was grafted on later and ultimately killed the entire movement: endless nation-building in feral, savage countries that wouldn't know democracy if it crawled up their ass and died there.

It was the nation-building, at insane expense in blood and treasure, that gave "neocon" such a (deservedly) bad rap. But that wasn't part of the original theory. That part was grafted on by MIC and countless other annelid profiteers and grifters eager to get rich from endless nation-building.

66 I think the response to 9/11 seemed justified at the time. They tried managing ME with commerce, both Cheney and Bush were oil men with deep , deep ties to the ME. But they were not smart enough to realize that just because they were lining their pockets, it somehow translated into a security umbrella for the US. They thought that hanging out with ME sheiks, selling them weapons and buying their oil would lead to US security. But betrayal of the scale of 9/11 bit them in the ass. So they responded in kind. I don't exactly regret that, but too many smelled billions and prolonged the bloody engagement.

I don't know, I guess it depends on the words we choose. "We" got off on the wrong foot when "we" decided to use the term "War On Terror". We couldn't/wouldn't even name an *enemy*. The enemy was Islam. The enemy is still Islam, and with it Marxism.

But I digress. There never should have been any intent to "nation build"--we should have destroyed Iraq, and then we should have exited....right thru Iran and destroyed them too.

I feel very badly about all of the good American men and women who gave their lives for a "war" that was never focused on an enemy, and never properly defined what winning would look like. I voted "Republican" because to do otherwise would have been surrender. But Bush and Cheney were clueless architects of an effort that should never have been pursued.

The existence of conservative hispanics does not negate the fact that, as a group, hispanics have higher rates of welfare use, higher rates of crime, and a propensity to vote for Democrats.

125 Back on 9/12/2001 everybody was super glad that Bush and his people were in charge. I think people forget that for decades it was common US policy to ignore jihadi terrorist attack after jihadi terrorist attack on US interests, US personnel ,and US embassies; jihadis and their paymasters in the ME were so convinced that nothing will happen to them, that they became bolder and bolder, and deadlier and deadlier. If that 4th plane was not taken down in PA, might have hit the Capitol Building. Total jihad. I am glad that the US , as clumsy as it was, re-established deterrence. Reminded the world that yes, we will send deadly force to far away places to fkign kill those who bring death to us.

The first instance of large-scale use of gas as a weapon was on 31 January 1915, when Germany fired 18,000 artillery shells containing liquid xylyl bromide tear gas on Russian positions on the Rawka River, west of Warsaw during the Battle of Bolimov. Instead of vaporizing, the chemical froze and failed to have the desired effect.

206 >> Alas, many Americans died trying to vindicate the now-obviously-absurd political claim that we can or should attempt to politically and culturally transform backwards and barbaric societies, hundreds or even thousands of years away from reaching modernity organically, by sending in a several tens of thousands of American fighters to trade bullets and bodies…

This was always the product of small, unimaginative minds like Cheney. It was a knee jerk response to the post Soviet world, from which people like Cheney learned no lessons. Had he and the yes men around him paused to consider the costs and failures of neoconservative approaches like regime change, a lot more men would be alive and we would be better off as a nation. We planted a lot of my friends, neighbors and brothers in that process. Good people for whom I wouldn’t trade 100 Cheney’s. He wasn’t a visionary or a leader. He was just another hapless bureaucrat imbued with bad ideas and even worse solutions.

Before the 9/11 attacks, George W said things like "We're not into nation building." If he ever actually believed that, it went out the window right away after the attacks.

You know, it's funny how badly "Neoconservatism" failed.

Particularly, in the idea of bringing civilization and freedom into barbaric lands with a barbaric religion.

Whereas, "Neomarxism"'s policy of Neobarbarism, ie. bringing in barbarians loaded with ignorance of our culture and ways, and totting along their own violent, dark age religions-

has been a rousing success.

Old Blighty and the rest of Western Europe supinely wait for their cultural swirlies and pink bellies courtesy of their 3rd world rulers to be.

The US?
Welp, just look at Dearborn and northern NY and the no-go all-moslem "township" that was planned for north Texas.

After 9/11 our nation couldn't wait to elect a man with a muslim background and name. And now NYC the site of the slaughter of over 2000 people in a jihad attack by moslems is ready to hand over that city to moslems rule and communist failure.

Say what you will...That's some "ism", that Neobarbarism.

Unfortunately, it's been the fate of so many Republican standard bearers to become ejected from the party with prejudice, and Bush/Cheney is the clearest example. Even Reagan and his decision on amnesty has undermined his legacy.

But it must be pointed out that Cheney's influence on gay marriage (remembering John Francois Kerry's comment on Cheney's lesbo daughter) may have pushed that agenda further than it should have.

I appear to have woken up ornery today and will blame canyon winds and allergies.

His heart transplant, and David Crosby, liver transplant, welp...they certainly benefitted from $ and prestige IMHO. Crosby was able to "jump to the top" of the list and got his in weeks vs months. With Phil Collins (who I like anyway) oddly paying for it. Granted Crosby spent millions of $ on drugs and may have been broke, but I doubt it. He lived for decades supposedly sober.

Cheney functioned for awhile with a LVAD for 20mo, so, for once, I give him a tiny break. But that's all I will give him. Perhaps he waited like a normal person to be on the list for a heart. He hasn't been seen or photographed since 2022 to support Liz, hater of Trump.

Liz Cheney was a big shot on the J6 committee and wanted blood from Trump. I never forget a traitor, and she is one.

281 Accurate. Cheney embraced an unapologetic, no-hedging, no reaching-across-the-aisle, no compromise "strong form" of neoconservatism, meaning there was no hiding its failure when it failed.

To be clear he and Shrub compromised on EVERYTHING that wasn't directly related to the WoT.

I've posted in the food thread that I know not to be a bad guest, so I only attend events I personally put on - I'm just too much of a hassle now (ie - keep me away from the sniffler/allergy sneezer, what ingredients are in the food, etc, etc)...

He switched parties about 3 months after LBJ died. He ran the "Democrats for Nixon" that helped Nixon carry Texas. I imagine he had to high tale it out of the party after that.

Osama gave the US a blood nose they could no longer ignore like Clinton had.

The reason there weren't constant terror attacks after 9/11 is they kicked all the Muslim illegals out of the country.

372 I must run my ballot into the dropoff locatation today. It sure does not have the same sense of completing a small civic duty that actually filling in the ballot at a polling place did. But 3 tax increases on it. One to run around our TABOR amendment to let the state keep excess from a previous 'tax the rich' (over 300K) to fund free school meals for all, a second to expand that tax those 'rich folks' by capping their deductions if they itemize (commies don't want people deciding what causes to support with their money) and a local bit to add ambulance service to the Fire Department, that last one might be okay, but they weren't that convincing and they just had to stick in a bit about it being a permanent tax, they can keep any excess they get over the actual cost of the new service.

I think I voted Kerry as a 'protest' against Dubya, twas silly but back then the state was red, and Dubya was 4-5 points ahead and did win here. I voted for McCain and Romney but in hindsight I am glad those POS grifters lost. Voted for Trump 3 times but between the coastie locusts that moved here and the D cheating the state is reliably blue for POTUS.

As I knew everything possible about Benghazi, I am sure you could hear me screaming from FL when Romney gave that election to Barky in the debate. Or when Nuland lied her granny panties off in Congress. Or when Hillary Hag banged, "What does it matter at this point" in her wonky glasses in Congress (actually I was on a ski trip in Big Sky then).

I remember it all. Basically, post Benghazi, I was a raving lunatic for about two solid weeks.

400 I'm going to partly disagree. Nation-building was *tried* in 2003, and then deliberately sabotaged by the DNC in 2004, just as they sabotaged the defense of South Vietnam in 1975. I would argue that the lesson to be learned isn't that nation-building is impossible, per se, just that it's de facto impossible as long as the DNC or a cultural successor exists. Admittedly, not a meaningful distinction in practical terms, but you might recall that during most of 2003 every nation in the Middle East was suddenly bending over backwards to bury their terrorist connections and arrest or kill anyone who might draw too much attention to them from us. It wasn't really until the election cycle that the fiasco began.

That's not to defend the multiple own-goals and abject refusal to fight back politically of the Bush Administration. But, I stand by what Wretchard and SDB both wrote after 9/11: the alternative to Iraq/Afghanistan was likely to end up, sooner or later, with us nuking somebody as the only cost-effective way to make the attacks on our civilians stop. And, given what we know now, I fear that we have to at least place nukes back on the table in the future.

Tuesday Morning Rant (11/04/25) Bare Bones Edition

Mis Hum Rant.jpg

Mystery Click???


The ever elusive Charles Brown of Dildo fame is on assignment. So he claims.


I'll be honest with you Morons. The biggest Rant I have is with the USPS. And I really can't get into it anymore here on the World Wide Web without serious repercussions.

*****

The Preamble of our US Constitution states:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

When the authors drafted this magnificent document they attempted to conceive of every possible dilemma which a representative republic could face. The creation of three branches of government was brilliant. Checks and balances with justice and domestic tranquility as the ultimate goal.

I've written it here and discussed it on a Cut Jib Newsletter pod cast. The US is too big to survive. And the following is just one reason of hundreds perhaps thousands.

Although I am not a gambling man. I would wager $100 that the authors would have never guessed that state governments would sue the federal government when federal dollars are involved for federal programs.

States sue USDA over efforts to gather food stamp data on tens of millions of people
UPDATED JULY 28, 20259:26 PM ET

A coalition of 21 states and Washington, D.C. filed a lawsuit Monday against the U.S. Department of Agriculture after the federal agency told states to turn over the detailed, personal information of food assistance applicants and their household members.

The USDA has told states they have until July 30 to turn over data about all applicants to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, over the last five years, including names, Social Security numbers, birth dates and addresses. Last week, the agency broadened the scope of information it is collecting to include other data points, including immigration status and information about household members.

The Federal government should have every right to see who is receiving any type of aid. The Judicial Branch should have tossed the suit immediately with the fancy term for "Go pound sand".

If California wants to take over funding from Uncle Sam to pay for their pipe dreams, fine.

Food stamps SNAP was designed as a part of the safety net for needy Americans. It was not designed to be a magnet for illegal aliens who by definition are here illegally.

Federal funding for the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) nutrition program and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), also called food stamps, runs out on Saturday due to the government shutdown. The funding cut-off will hit illegal immigrants hard. The Center’s 2023 analysis of government survey data shows households headed by illegal immigrants make extensive use of the welfare system, particularly food assistance programs.

Among our prior findings:

Of households headed by illegal immigrants, CIS estimated that 59 percent use one or more welfare programs — cash, food assistance, Medicaid, or housing.
Illegal immigrant households have especially high use of food programs, with 48 percent enrolled in one or more of these programs — SNAP, WIC, or school lunch/breakfast.
In particular, our analysis found that 17 percent of illegal immigrant households used SNAP.

It's not a matter of If. But a matter of When.

It says household headed by illegals. But if they have an anchor baby or 4, the anchor babies are citizens and eligible for the Bennies. Or if they’re married to a citizen/ green card holder they may be the head of household but the spouse gets the Bennies.

I suspect that’s the majority of it. It sucks but there’s not much to be done short of changing the eligibility requirements which is never going to happen. You won’t get RINOs voting to make “poor children” ineligible for food stamps.

I really hope we win this one. NJ gov has a lot of power and that odious Karen makes my skin crawl.

The polls in NYC have been mobbed with much more early voting than usual. That doesn't bode well for Bombdaddy. I suspect this will also be a close race that ends in litigation.

I'd rather have Cuomo over the goat-fucker, but at the end of the day it doesn't matter. NYC is run by big corporations and big donors, no matter who is mayor.

That was even true under Rudy. He succeeded in part because big corp wanted him to: they were long eyeing the incredibly valuable real estate in midtown (42ns street, etc) that was overrun by scumbags. Rudy cleaned it up; big business moved in.

A coalition of 21 states and Washington, D.C. filed a lawsuit Monday against the U.S. Department of Agriculture after the federal agency told states to turn over the detailed, personal information of food assistance applicants and their household members.




Cut everyone off. Start over. Make it a federal program like Social Security.

Cut the states out entirely.

Sit back and listen to the squeal as the grift dries up.

Petain deliberately rotated men in and out of the lines at a good clip instead of leaving units there to get blasted to fragments like the Germans. So it's little wonder why a good portion of the French army was at Verdun.

Of course, it would have been better to have pulled back from there in the first place. Verdun was a salient and the French could have shortened their line at little cost.

The Wifey read that as "beheaded."

Some recent ideas seen:

1. Scrap SNAP in its current form and withhold all future monies from States FOR GOOD -- NEVER AGAIN (they can go pound their fraudulent sand elsewhere)!

2. Start the program over -- maybe call it FOOD (Feed Only Our Deserving) -- with those in need who qualify having to apply anew directly to the DOGE Department of the Feral Gubmint.

3. Require that participants reapply again every three months to demonstrate continued qualification and need every three months to prove continued eligibility (which of course won't eliminate ALL fraud, but should reduce it significantly -- especially since it's being so abused by unqualified PARASITIC ILLEGAL ALIENS who have NO RIGHT to BE HERE!).

4. And NO FERAL BAILOUTS for any blue shithole state or city that bankrupts itself owing to suicidal policies and fraud; worst case, they revert back to U.S. Territories overseen by Military Governors reporting (at least now) directly to President Trump.

I can't believe raising sales tax is something that's actually on the table in NJ, but apparently people in the Garden State are gagging to have their sales tax raised.

I also voted no on both questions, the first question on Public space was confusing and I had no idea what voting yes would be so, in my experience the safest choice is to always vote now, also voted no on bonds for schools.

Back when I slaved in Cubicle Hell, I found I could effectively modulate visitor frequency with careful selection of the proper foods at my morning toilette.

If I felt gregarious on a particular morning, I could grind a pound of fresh Dunkin Donuts coffee beans, and wear them in a sachet bag around my neck.

When I wanted to be left alone, I could sponge my pits with durian pulp, and enjoy the ensuing Day of Blessed Peace.

At home, I can relax by scrubbing down with lemon rinds, and party hearty.

(A) In general
Each State agency shall keep such records as may be necessary to determine whether the program is being conducted in compliance with this chapter (including regulations issued under this chapter).

(B) Inspection and audit
All records, and the entire information systems in which records are contained, that are covered in subparagraph (A) shall—

(i) be made available for inspection and audit by the Secretary, subject to data and security protocols agreed to by the State agency and Secretary;

(ii) subject to subsection (e)(, be available for review in any action filed by a household to enforce any provision of this chapter (including regulations issued under this chapter); and
(iii) be preserved for such period of not less than 3 years as may be specified in regulations.

“Secretary” is the Secretary of Agriculture

It is an unequivocal, indisputable fact of law that the federal government is entitled to this information as a condition of the program. It’s why they went to a liberal judge in California to get the injunction, which should be stricken.

134 Food stamps used to be a signifier that you needed government help to feed your family. It was supposed to be shame-inducing. No one getting a handout from Uncle Sucker has any shame.
——-

No, it was never intended to be “shame inducing”.

It was branded as shame inducing in order to change the system, and attitudes were modified to change it a sense of entitlement. “What do you do for a living?” the BBC reporter inquired to the Snapanese citizen. “I get a check” she replied. “No, I mean where do you work?”. Again - “I get a check”.

The “ghetto mentality” purposefully inculcated in one segment of our society has been successfully deployed to the larger society. See how that works?

Remember the old white trash Charlie Daniels tune “I don’t want nothin’ from nobody, if I cain’t get it on my own”?

There is no shame or stigma, because they had to change people’s attitudes. It was axiomatic that Credit was stupid, and while being poor was Not Fun, at least the breadwinner was supporting his family by honest labor. He wasn’t accepting charity. This was a point of pride.

This mentality had to be killed. They have Meth and Lottery now.

135 42 million may take “SNAP”, but I read 90 million are on some sort of major taxpayer assistance or another. And that was 20 years ago. Doubtful those numbers (or percentage) have improved in the ensuing takedown of the good ship America.



It’s much much worse than you think.

So first off 42 million is recipients of snap. But that is adults who get it. Their kids aren’t counted as recipients. So the 42M is more like 80-100M when counting their kids.

And then on top of that if you count everyone who gets some direct payment from the govt, be it welfare, SS, Obamacare subsidies, paycheck, etc, the number is over 50%.

The warning from Ben Franklin has become reality.

It’s also why we should start removing these judges. There is no legal basis for the injunction.

I still recall Phil Gramm (R-TX) -- who complaining about it back a half-century ago in the 70's -- running for President in the 90's predicting that one day we will have "more people riding in the wagon than are pulling the wagon."

Not sure when that threshold was crossed, but (after a quick interwebz search -- and this likely fails to include illegals):

"Based on a 2023 Pew Research Center survey, 55% of Americans have received government benefits from at least one of the six most well-known federal entitlement programs, excluding Social Security and Medicare. These programs include Medicaid, welfare, unemployment benefits, and food stamps (SNAP). Additionally, when considering household-level receipt, 71% of adults live in a household that has benefited from at least one of these programs."

216 Related - AI response to a Q

>The requirement for people to work or volunteer in 2027 is a big deal because, starting in January 2027, new federal work requirements for Medicaid enrollees will take effect nationwide. This policy is controversial and significant for several reasons:

Loss of health coverage: The primary concern is that an estimated 11.8 million people could lose their Medicaid coverage, with approximately 4.8 million losing it specifically due to the work requirements. This would dramatically increase the number of uninsured people.
Mandatory hours: To maintain coverage, most adults ages 19 to 64 will need to prove they are working, volunteering, or engaging in educational activities for at least 80 hours a month. The user's prompt of "a few hours" is an understatement of the actual hours required.

Administrative burden: The requirements create a significant monthly documentation burden for recipients to prove compliance and for state systems to manage and verify eligibility, which can lead to people losing coverage even if they are working or exempt.

Impact on nonprofits: The charitable sector largely opposes "mandatory volunteerism" because it can impose

Posted by: L - No nic, another fine day at November 04, 2025 12:04 PM (NFX2v)

217 increased costs, burdens, and liabilities on nonprofits, which are forced to manage an influx of potentially unenthusiastic individuals "doing time" rather than genuinely volunteering. Nonprofits also argue that coerced service undermines the intrinsic value and spirit of true volunteerism.

Policy shift: This marks a significant policy shift as, previously, states had to request federal permission (waivers) to implement work requirements, but in 2027, states will be required to implement them as a condition of receiving federal Medicaid funds.

Economic impact: Critics argue the requirements will not only affect the individuals losing coverage but also place a strain on healthcare systems and potentially lead to less productive outcomes compared to authentic volunteer engagement.

In summary, the 2027 work/volunteer requirements are a major issue because they condition essential health coverage on specific activities, potentially resulting in millions losing healthcare access and creating significant administrative and operational challenges for both individuals and organizations.

16 I generally am not an El Greco fan because so much of his art is very dark, and even sometimes hard to see the details, but I get the effort to augment the lighter parts, and I appreciate the use of Dutch technique to create a vivid subject.

I rate this OK plus. Pretty good.

38 Yes, when I saw the name "Vazquez" my first thought was "vampire." Maybe one who is not getting enough blood, or his hair and beard would be dark.

All seriousness aside, the hair and beard are well done, and the expression on his face allows for various interpretations. Which can make a piece of art intriguing.

101 Portrait of don Rodrigo Vázquez de Arce
Anonymous (Copy after: El Greco (Domenikos Theotokopoulos) Lost 1587-1597, it is now in the Museo del Prado in Madrid.

Interesting look from the "model" to the artist.

Anyway -
don Rodrigo Vazquez de Arce - Born in Ávila, he was the son of a law professor and advisor to Charles I of Spain. He studied in the Colegio Mayor Santa Cruz of the University of Valladolid and became a judge in the Royal Chancellery of Granada, a member of the Council of Castile and a member of the Council of the Inquisition. (Wikipedia)

A member of the Council of the Inquisition was a person on a governing body, such as the Grand Inquisitor who headed the council, or the other members who sat on it. For example, the Spanish Inquisition's Council of the Supreme and General Inquisition had a Grand Inquisitor and six members. These members had various roles, including theologians who acted as 'calificadores' and weighed cases, as well as prosecutors, notaries, and bailiffs who carried out the council's decisions.

117 Ok, "Tommy Robinson has been found not guilty of a terror offense after refusing to give police access to his phone during a stop at the Channel Tunnel in July 2024. The court ruled that the police's actions were discriminatory and based on his political beliefs." Tommy Robinson who held that little march of millions of people not long ago, defying the deep state, and who the deep state and British islamonazis really want gone. The one who got support from Musk, to fight this horseshit.

Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh at November 04, 2025 09:52 AM (tgvbd)

Young Rodrigo approved of her very much.

My roommate at the time and I had her prominently displayed on our refrigerator door.

I remember being a little concerned when the landlord showed up to fix something, as he'd given off the "devout Christian" vibe.

However, he was most appreciative. Heterosexuality trumps a lot of things.

Besides, that was well after Jimmy Carter made it legal to lust in your heart.

so, fuckery at the polls here in Chester County. not good

went to vote and they somehow - for the whole county! - printed "voter books" with only D/R and our most important race right now is for judges! which is not party-based.

so like half the people there were unaffiliated, which is normal, but they ALL had to do provisional ballots bc of this. it was a hot mess.

they are saying "well they will count them all but it will probably take a week or two" so it's building in confusion, making people leave without voting, and worse yet, and excuse to take longer to "count."

very very VERY hinky stuff out here. never even heard of this before, we always have tons of third party or unaffiliated and they get ballots with like nothing on them but they are always LISTED if they're registered!

197 so, fuckery at the polls here in Chester County. not good

went to vote and they somehow - for the whole county! - printed "voter books" with only D/R and our most important race right now is for judges! which is not party-based.

so like half the people there were unaffiliated, which is normal, but they ALL had to do provisional ballots bc of this. it was a hot mess.

they are saying "well they will count them all but it will probably take a week or two" so it's building in confusion, making people leave without voting, and worse yet, and excuse to take longer to "count."

very very VERY hinky stuff out here. never even heard of this before, we always have tons of third party or unaffiliated and they get ballots with like nothing on them but they are always LISTED if they're registered!

202 >>>Alright, what does 6-7 refer to?

It's funny to kids because it means nothing. But the explanations of where it might come from are even sillier than it being from nothing.

"The "6-7" meme is used as a largely nonsensical, all-purpose interjection or inside joke. It has no fixed meaning, which is part of the point, though it is sometimes used to mean "so-so" or as a social signal of being "in the know".
Origin and Spread
Music Origin: The phrase originates from the 2024 rap song "Doot Doot (6 7)" by rapper Skrilla, where he repeatedly says "six-seven".
Basketball Connection: The song snippet gained initial traction on TikTok when users began pairing it with highlight videos of NBA player LaMelo Ball, who is 6 feet 7 inches tall.
Viral Popularization: The meme was further propelled by a viral video of a young fan (dubbed the "67 Kid") excitedly yelling the phrase at a basketball game, accompanied by a specific up-and-down hand gesture.
Mainstream Adoption: Public figures, including NBA and WNBA players, have referenced the meme in interviews and celebrations, solidifying its place in pop culture."

The Morning Report — 11/4/25

PsychoMamdani.jpg

Good morning kids. So, today is election day and while there are a few very high profile races, I assume that voting is taking place in every state and locality. So do get out there and cast your ballot. Hopefully wherever you are and whatever office is on the ballot, you have the choice to not only vote for the most pro-American conservative candidate that you can, but that said candidate actually has a shot at winning. The two biggest contests are in Virginia where Winsome Earle Sears can and will overcome whatever fraud the Democrats can throw out there in order to drag the horrid Abigail Spanberger over the finish line to give them another governorship which we and President Trump desperately need. Edited. JJS


The one race that has captured all the attention in the media and more crucially the public at large, is the race for NYC mayor. Zohran Mamdani, weaponized virus with half the DNA of Joseph Stalin and the other half of Osama Bin Laden has been in the lead for weeks and is likely to win. The disaster that will befall New York will not be contained to the five boroughs.


President Trump did something surprising in his last minute endorsement of independent candidate Andrew Cuomo.

President Donald Trump told New Yorkers on Monday to back Independent New York City mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo in the city’s mayoral race instead of Republican mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa.

In a Truth Social post, Trump said he would withhold federal funding from New York if Democratic New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani wins, calling the socialist state assemblyman a “total failure” who would lead the city into “complete and total economic and social disaster.”

. . . Polling suggests Sliwa’s performance could decide whether socialist Mamdani maintains his lead over Cuomo. Surveys showing weaker support for Sliwa consistently narrow the gap between Mamdani and Cuomo, hinting at a potential late shift in the race.

An Emerson College Polling/PIX11/The Hill survey released Thursday shows Mamdani leading Cuomo by 25 points, 50% to 25%, with 21% backing Sliwa and 4% undecided. Support for Mamdani has climbed seven points since Sept. 10, when an earlier Emerson poll put him at 43%.

Trump told reporters on Oct. 22 that Sliwa “is not going to win,” adding that if Sliwa dropped out, “maybe Cuomo would have a little bit of a chance, but not much.”

Cuomo dismissed Sliwa’s chances of winning, saying that if “you vote for Curtis, save yourself the time, and vote for Mamdani.” He later told SiriusXM’s Stephen A. Smith that a Mamdani victory in the Nov. 4 general election would mark “the death of the Democratic Party.”

Sadly the President and Cuomo are correct in that Sliwa doesn't really have a snowball's chance in Hell of winning. While I am no huge fan of Curtis Sliwa, at least he's not a far Left or Islamic maniac and having ridden the NYC subways in the bad old days of the 70s and 80s I always breathed a sigh of relief to see Sliwa's Guardian Angels in their red berets riding in the car with me. And the President is of course correct that Mamdani will completely destroy whatever is still functioning and normal in NYC that Adams and the perpetually insane Communist city council have not destroyed by now.

As for Smith's prediction that the Democrat Party will die, that brings up the questions of what exactly is the Democrat Party and what does it represent. In reality not in mythology and shibboleths about freedom, liberty, civil rights, championing the underdog and all the other goody good tripe about Democracy.

The Democrat Party is the epicenter of Anti-Americanism and anti-western Judeo/Christianity. Despite what we have been hearing not only from our side of the divide but from their side, be it Smith or John Fetterman or even vermin like James Carville and others that the embrace, or the open espousal of views and policies that in the past they desperately did their best to cover up and distance themselves from, why is it that the younger generations are now embracing socialism more than ever.

If polling prior to and even after the assassination of Charlie Kirk is correct in that the aforementioned cohort of younger Americans are drifting away from the Democrats and heading back towards God and traditional America, then the vicissitudes of NYC politics notwithstanding, how is it that Mamdani and candidates like him, as well as Bernie Sanders et al and Socialism are growing in popularity?

With Zohran Mamdani’s ascension in New York City, Bernie Sanders nearly capturing the Democrat presidential nomination in 2016 and 2020, and the rapidly expanding number of Marxist-indoctrinated candidates and elected officials, socialism—or its latest euphemism, “Democratic Socialism”—is now the dominant philosophical underpinning of the Democrat party. This is a philosophical capture that will not result in transforming the United States but in the fracturing and demise of America’s oldest political party. . . Most of the current iteration of socialists in the United States have never faced any significant national adversity, as the country has experienced unparalleled peace and prosperity for four generations. Far too many, because of a desire to be part of the in-crowd as well as outright ignorance, are captivated by the chimerical theories of socialism/Marxism and refuse to acknowledge the reality of its roster of failures.

Their efforts to transform the United States into a one-party socialist nation will never succeed thanks to America’s unprecedentedly successful two-hundred-fifty-year history as a capitalist-based constitutional republic. While they can foment temporary chaos and turmoil that will repulse most Americans, the only thing they will accomplish is the inevitable fracturing and destruction of the Democrat party they now control.

As I alluded to above, the Democrat party as an entity or brand or whatever might disappear, the will to absolute power that has driven it and its leadership and base will remain, as it always had since human beings first walked the earth. Evil never rests, and so there will be some other party with some other name that will seek to destroy us and seize control.

I'd like to think that the NYC mayoralty race is not a bellwether for the rest of the country insofar as the direction we are heading, but that it is merely indicative of the City's unfortunate historical Leftist/Democrat political bent, the miracle of the Giuliani years notwithstanding.

Mamdani is already threatening insurrection via nullification specifically in shielding the illegal alien population.

Ditto this scumbag Mamdani-wannabe in residence in Mogadishu on the Mississippi:

Minneapolis mayoral candidate Omar Fateh discussed a plan during a podcast interview involving coordination between city leadership and community-based organizations to ensure elected officials and neighborhood groups are informed before potential immigration enforcement activity.

If either of them, or anyone and everyone from Pritzker to Newsom twitch so much as a muscle to interfere with ICE or the National Guard, President Trump must arrest them and charge them with federal crimes.

Elsewhere in the wider world, as our military is blasting drug-smuggling boats out of the water in the Pacific and in the Southern hemisphere near Venezuela, is this merely an action between that Communist access and us or are other nefarious actors in the mix. To ask is of course to answer.

The next time you hear someone expressing outrage over the attacks on Venezuelan boats that the Trump administration believes are being used by narco-traffickers, remind them of all the criminals — drug traffickers, money launderers, passport forgers — Venezuela has been protecting, and especially, they should be told that Venezuela is Hezbollah’s most valuable ally in all of South America. And that is why Trump’s promise to use, if he deems it necessary, the CIA to attack the narco-traffickers inside Venezuela should be encouraged. Let no part of Venezuela be safe for Hezbollah. Trump would garner much more support for his policy of attacking narco-traffickers, and of enlarging that sea campaign with attacks on Venezuelan soil, were he to spell out for the public the connection between that country, and many of its traffickers who are providing a financial lifeline to Hezbollah.

Of course Hezbollah is Iran and Iran is Hezbollah. Iran has long had a very close relationship with Venezuela going back at least as far as that idiotic Parrot who had Hugo Chavez stuck on its claw. Iran has been funneling spies and terrorists north through Venezuela and into the USA and Canada. There was also talk of Iran building some sort of rocket base in the north of Venezuela from which it could have launched missiles with enough range to hit the continental United States.

Venezuela and the still remaining communist nations in the region, Cuba numero uno among them, can and do pose national security threats to us and with a still existing Mullahocracy in Tehran hell bent on revenge for our taking out (we think) of their nuclear program and their preexisting Islamic hatred of America and what it represents, Venezuela et al should and must be kept in check.

Psaki-Psircling back to Mamzer-dani, As CBD, Robert Spencer and I discussed on the last podcast, the likely to be next mayor of NYC's Shi'ite Twelverism puts him in league with Iran and considering all of the above, that does not bode well for not jus the Big Apple but all of the USA.

  • “The tyrants don’t concern me. What concerns me are those who are blindly obedient.” That line, simple and unadorned, captures the essence of the modern dilemma. Tyrants have always existed. Every century gives birth to its strongmen, its ideologues, its bureaucrats with the soul of a warden. What changes—what determines whether tyranny thrives or collapses—is how many ordinary people are willing to follow orders. The machinery of oppression is never built by monsters alone; it’s assembled by millions of tiny, harmless hands.

I don't greatly care about what happens in foreign countries, so whether Mandami gets elected has no great resonance for me.

My question is, while I know he could do a lot of damage, how much can he do under the city charter? I mean, it's not going to be the Paris Commune, is it?

45 WSJ snippets from their Cheney obituary:

"Dick Cheney, who served four Republican presidents and whose role as an architect of the post-9/11 war on terror made him one of the most powerful—and controversial—U.S. vice presidents in history, died. He was 84...

A national-security hawk with a penchant for working the levers of power...Having once dismissed the vice presidency as “a cruddy job,” Cheney, who served under Bush for two terms beginning in 2001, set out to make it count. Previous officeholders had gone on diplomatic missions, run task forces or even served as the president’s attack dog. But at the beginning of his tenure, when a Republican predecessor, Dan Quayle, told Cheney he should expect to attend a lot of funerals, the new vice president demurred.
“I have a different understanding with the president,” Cheney told Quayle, the Washington Post reported. After taking office, Cheney pursued with implacable vigor his vision of sweeping presidential authority."

And apparently his granddaughter's take on his portrayal in the movie Vice was that he was "a bad ass."

B/c Cuomo hates us just as much, if not more, than Mamdani. He killed grandmas in Covid, sexually harrassed and abused female underlings in the office, and was a pretty committed liar and schmuck to everyone.

I know the enemy of my enemy, and all that, but when you can't decide which is the biggest enemy, you might as well protest with Sliwa and let your weaker, less politically savvy enemy win and destroy himself...like the MD Gov has been doing to himself...

Cuomo is a truly horrible excuse for a human being. The worst spawn of a family that is a nest of vipers. And less honest than Mamdani (not an easy achievement, that.) Don't kid yourself; he would not lift a finger to protect any old rabbis or to ward off socialism; he's down with all their horrors. And if he wins the far left of the Democrat party will be encouraged, while the even farther left will be dismayed. IMO that's the opposite of what we want. It's good for the rest of America for Ilhan Omar to be the face of the Dems. (I wonder, will she marry him?)

57 Mamdani, by himself, cannot do the things he says he'll do. His staff and a pliable NYC are required. I always had assumed the Democrats had a vice-like grip on city politics, so if they wanted Mamdani to be mayor, he'll be mayor.

I'm not entirely sure about the public there. His popularity seems... manufactured.

If businesses begin to flee the city along with any sizable percentage of the population his term might be cut short. Or not.

Someone mentioned JFK's "cult of personality" in the tech thread, and that's as good an explanation as any. The politicians rising are able to tap into the influencer vibe and build a cult of personality around them. Clinton, Obama, Trump, AOC, Mamdami, Bernie. Love or hate them, they have an ego and charisma that connects them to voters and creates interest in being led by them.

Even if they have nothing of substance to back up the chutzpah, or their brand sits in a throne of lies, concealing the communism disguised as smiley faced, empathetic populism.

It's why I'm pretty sure Mamdami wins. And I'm sad for New York.

Years of public school system is the short answer.

There is no clear teaching of the evils of socialism/communism. The answer always is: it's wasn't tried correctly.

I mean, when you're following the lead of Kamala, might that give you pause?

Once again, Trump has them running full speed into a box canyon thinking they are chasing him.
I don't know which is more pathetic--the clown judges thinking they have finally an order on Trump or the Dems who think they've found a winning issue.

It's going to be so much fun--and entirely predictable--watching what Trump does

92 Reddit is less unhinged about Cheney than you'd think. He's old Nazi news, I guess, and not as bad as the new guy!

Cheney, still a hardline conservative, nevertheless became largely ostracized from his party over his intense criticism of Trump, whom he branded a “coward” and the greatest-ever threat to the republic.

That's good to hear, but on the other I can't help but feel he and his party are directly responsible for putting him in and bringing us to the current day.

He only said critical things once he had nothing to lose. Fuck Dick Cheney. Knowing Cheney he was probably mad Trump was attacking Hispanics and not Arabs.

That's every single Republican since around 2000. Once they retire to the speech circuit they're suddenly against the party.

Are MAGAts going to cancel everyone who celebrates this or does it fall under the “Trump hated him so mocking his death is perfectly acceptable” exception?

His contract with Satan expired. Now he has to be the Ghost Rider.

His legacy of promoting the wanton destruction of the Middle East for personal enrichment by providing endless logistical support to an invading military lives on...

Audience goes down when you're winning...so the grift goes down. You need to destroy your own side to keep the grift and audience going.

Tucker probably has never believed anything he's said on his show - ever - the things we agreed with and the things we didn't, he never really thought. He's a very rich guy from a very rich family who wanted to stay rich and popular. This is him doing that now. B/c we are all talking about him again, when we really hadn't in awhile. And he doesn't care if it causes us to lose b/c it will cause more people to listen to him. Again.

110 >>> 68 "27 I love all you cats at AoS, but here is a word of advice: Leave Tucker alone. Period

Tucker is not Britney Spears during her shaved head meltdown period. He's a grown man who flung himself into the political sphere. He's more than capable of handling his critics, and using words to defend himself.

The left does the "defend them at all costs if the have a D behind their name," and that's a game I refuse to play on the conservative side. Tucker has always been a mixed bag. And if he says dumb stuff we can call him out.

All of this to add, I didn't like the people saying he's not MAGA, we don't claim him, he's not one of us. They sound just as bad as the LGBT people who claimed I wasn't an ally because I didn't fall 100% into all their dogma. Only agreeing with them 90% made me a homophobe, apparently. Tucker can decide what he is and how he wants to define himself. But if he's only 90% or 100% MAGA, he can still be in the MAGA train and not be on board with all Trump does.

He does have some troubling views. It's up to his audience to agree or to dump him if he gets too crazy. Neocons eventually outed themselves, so will the pseudo MAGA.

I consider it the short and the long answer. The education system has utterly failed (on purpose) by obfuscating and hiding the pure evils of socialism/communism/marxism and elevating it in the skulls full of mush. Tear down one system. Build up another. Five, six decades later, here we are. I lay it all at the feet of the American school system, with a healthy shout-out to the MFM. They are the ones to blame. Alas, it would take half a century to unwind and unteach that poison. But look at the teachers we're cranking out. These people aren't Miss Landers or Miss Crump anymore. They're militant activists in what they believe, and they have a job. Poison young American minds.

Got that backwards: Bernie's presidential campaign leaders went on the found the Justice Democrats, starting with an org called something like 'Replace 538.' They were plotting since at least 2016 to replace *every* member of Congress with a Socialist, starting with their candidates AOC, Ilhan Omar, et.al. This is not Bernie going along with the young kids - he's their inspiration, their godfather. I would guess they've been so successful because they already had the Bernie bros' buy-in and momentum from Bernie's failed presidential runs.

Justice Democrats (JD) is an American progressive political action committee and caucus[9][10][1] founded on January 23, 2017, by two leaders of Bernie Sanders's 2016 presidential campaign, Saikat Chakrabarti and Zack Exley, as well as political commentators Kyle Kulinski and Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks.[11] The organization formed as a result of the 2016 United States presidential election[12][13] and aspires "to elect a new type of Democratic majority in Congress" . . .

138 A sovereign nation with a reasonably self-reliant, family oriented and well adjusted society is anathema to “global governance”.

The nation state must be destroyed. They told us this many many times in many many ways decades ago. Everything flows from this, it’s no conspiracy, it’s no secret. They don’t even try to hide it. The so-called “black lives matter” official platform has the destruction of the family unit as one of their planks.

The blacks were targeted early on right away by the alphabet agencies for “behavior modification”, a large cohort or demographic entering the middle class wasn’t desirable. They’ll start voting reliably conservative.

Lessons learned, on deconstructing society, changing attitudes, mores, and values on college campus and the ghetto are then redeployed to the larger society. Marriage, family, religion, fiscal prudence, moderation in personal conduct, all these things must be swept away in order to usher in the Utopia For Errybody. Millions of lives wasted, but it will be “worth it”, I’m sure.

161 Tucker and whoever this Nick Fuckette is are trolling for exposure and money. They are both basically professional clickbait hustlers now. The more outrageous things they say, the more people tune in if for no other reason than “I wonder what outrageous thing he’ll say.”

It the old sports-show gimmick where a bunch of fat retards make increasingly insane statements and predictions about players and teams. People tuned in to see how insane. And of course, like with Tucker and Nick, there was always an Other to shit on. In the sports shows, it was usually a hated rival team.

170 I think it's a mistake to look at the rise of Bernie and the Jets as an organic, ground up movement. Guys like Soros don't sit on the sidelines and then wait for a candidate to support. They create the candidates. They create the movement.

Soros has spent years funding low money but big impact DA races all over the country and they have done enormous damage to the rule of law and NYC is no exception. They helped fund the invasion. Their candidates twisted programs like SNAP and Obamacare to give illegals benefits and keep them on the dole. Seeding the ground.

We saw earlier this year the enormous amount of our tax dollars funneling through USAID and other programs to NGOs to speed our destruction. Big money globalists are not playing by the same rules we are and their goal as Obama said is to fundamentally change America. It's not a conspiracy theory if it's all true.

He’s put out an apology for saying that he “hated evangelicals/Christian Zionists more than anyone else in the world, and claims that he was just mad, so we should just forget about that. Then he says he knows some Christian Zionists who are “nice people” which is EXACTLY like saying “I’m not a racist against blacks, I know a couple of Black people who are real nice.”

Apology NOT accepted.

Years of public school system is the short answer.

The Free Shit Army has long been the largest Democrat voting bloc. The promise of free shit attracts members of all racial, religious, and ethnic groups. Many unions are also in the Free Shit Army. Free or very cheap health insurance wioth terrific coverage, regular and generous raises no matter performance or economic woes, protection from being fired for non-performance, etc. The union members consider all this free shit guaranteed by Democrats. It also seems women are more attracted than men to join the Free Shit Army. And here we are in 2025.

If he doesn’t have the good sense to understand giving Fuentes a platform is a very bad idea, then he is reflecting on who he is, what he is, and with that I make the choice to say no mas. If we think welcoming Fuentes and the Fuentsettes under our tent is worth it, I won’t be in the tent anymore. They are not MAGA and we should stop pretending they are.

Scarecrows with demeaning messages about school superintendent found in Concord, Massachusetts

WCVB logoUpdated: 12:07 PM EST Nov 3, 2025

Matt Reed
Reporter
CONCORD, Mass. —
Police are investigating after makeshift scarecrows targeting the Concord-Carlisle Regional School District superintendent caused alarm, officials said Monday.

“In recent weeks, several concerning displays targeting Superintendent Laurie Hunter have been placed in town. These actions are disturbing and uncivil and have no place in our community," Tracey Marano, Concord-Carlisle Regional School District School Committee chair, and Concord Public Schools School Committee Chair Andrew Herchek said in a statement.



The scarecrows were found in Concord and have messages that include: "Fire liar hunter," "Muskets for musk?" "The hatch for hunter!" and "Hate, waste, bullying, higher taxes."

One resident said more than a dozen makeshift scarecrows have been found.

“The Concord and Concord-Carlisle School Committees stand fully with Superintendent Hunter. She is a committed leader who continues to serve our students, staff and families with p

No one is asking you to do anything, but when people are pointing at shit and calling it shit, shit is getting upset and claiming 1st amendment privileges. Which shows that 1) they have no clue what 1A says - "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” Government. Does not say Carlson and his ilk cannot be mocked and stomped into the mud, for the ugly , racist antisemitic positions they hold so dear, as they deserve.

316 MUST-WATCH: Stephen Miller is spot on about the current state of the Democrat party.

“The Democrat Party has become dangerously violently radicalized.

“We are dealing with a party that is so extreme, that considers its opponents to be its mortal enemies, that dehumanizes its opposition, that justifies violent attacks against federal law enforcement, assaults against ICE and border Patrol, that sides over and over again with criminal aliens.”

“This is a dangerous party. This is a dangerous movement. And what you're seeing in New York City with Mamdani, that is the future. A party that believes in no bail, a party believes in no jail. A party that believes in no borders.”

“But here's one group they do want to put in jail. Their political enemies, like good commies. They will not arrest their criminals, they won't arrest the gang members, but they will arrest their political opposition. That's how society dies.”

That poster and a couple like him who are NOT regular posters and who just showed up in the last couple weeks are to me a big clue that this entire thing we’re seeing - Tucker, Candace, the stuff that went on at the TPUSA convention, the attacks on Vance and his wife, and even paid trolls showing up at our unassuming little place - are all pieces of an extremely well financed and widespread campaign to split Trump’s support into pieces and set up a host of internal conflicts.

At least it means that our enemies now realize they have no chance of taking Trump or the MAGA down directly; so they’ve moved on to more devious and subtle methods.

Tucker, Candace, and Fuentes are the most public faces of these plotters. I would add Dave Smith, but he’s too inconsequential to give that much credit. But I think it’s important to remember that taking down Trump is their only true goal.

336 JENNINGS: “But David, you would admit that the ACA was a Democrat legislation, yes?”

“And you would admit that the subsidies that we’re talking about now were passed by Democrats, yes?”

“And you would admit that the sunset provision in the subsidies, which comes up at the end of the year, was in place because of Democrats, yes?”

“Now you want to make it a Republican problem. These are not the same issues.”

“You could open the government today and then you could negotiate with Republicans about ACA subsidies.”

“And by the way, my suspicion is and you know this, there are probably and I know there are some House Republicans that would love to negotiate on it, but under duress, under a hostage taking situation, connecting disconnected issues.”

“And now you’re throwing SNAP onto it. You’re throwing all the federal workers who aren’t being paid onto it, all because of this fight that you wandered into, because of your wing of the Democratic Party.”

“YOU ALL led to this SNAP crisis. You all led to this crisis of the government being closed and you don’t know how to get out of it!”

Cuomo's no cash bail policy, C19 scandal & loss of 80,000 people (at least), etc. hang heavily on him. But "(he) knows how to run the city." And he can work with the Federal government and ICE over a captured a criminal. Ha!

368 This dependency erodes the very qualities that once defined the American spirit: grit, creativity, perseverance, and stewardship. It weakens families, as individuals outsource responsibility to bureaucracies. It undermines communities, as neighbors become strangers in line at government offices. And it distorts the role of government itself, transforming it from a facilitator of freedom into a surrogate parent.

Halper worked at the Pentagon in the Office of Net Assessment. In theory, the office was supposed to be doing long term strategic foreign policy thinking. Sort of think tank within the DOD.

In reality Halper was a CIA asset. He was the guy who was sent to the UK to help frame Gen. Mike Flynn for supposedly having an affair with a British academic named Svetlana Lokhova. Lokhova was a Russian emigre to the UK with zero ties to Putin but that wasn't how Halper framed it.

She was forced to leave her career and it was the beginning of the end for Flynn. And it was all lies.

This simply can't be overstated: we are *NOT* witnessing the demise of the Democrat Party. We are witnessing its very rapid transformation into a revolutionary movement. Without regard to their electoral fortunes, their time for talking has already ended, and as the ancient dinosaurs of the Party die off, there will be more and more radical action by the monster babies, and at that point, violence will become Party-sanctioned.

This is by no means the end of them. It's only the beginning of the next phase of American history.

407 The Pill For Everything: Why Off-Label Gabapentin Prescriptions Are Soaring

Gabapentin is now the fifth most prescribed drug in the U.S., with 95 percent of prescriptions for off-label uses.


Gabapentin is a medication primarily used to treat partial seizures, nerve pain (such as from shingles), and restless leg syndrome. It works by affecting the chemical messengers in the brain and nerves, helping to normalize nerve activity. Gabapentin is also effective for conditions like postherpetic neuralgia and diabetic neuropathy. Common side effects may include dizziness, fatigue, and drowsiness.

NBC is not deciding, Fuentes , Carlson and Owens are promoting themselves as such. They are grasping for Kirk's following.

466 Greetings from deep inside the blue bowels of Chiraq! Why are Dems embracing Socialism and Communism? The older Boomers were the ones who protested Vietnam and other social causes. One member of my sewing circle proudly shared that she was a member of the college student group started by the Weather Underground. She and many others of her age in my group feel it’s time for a new government. They love the millions of illegal immigrants in our area and contribute materially and financially to NGOs that help them. They go to the No Kings protests. They support helping Ukraine. My two millennial kids were indoctrinated by teachers and peers all through school and college about how Republicans are evil Nazis, and Dems are all about compassion. Many of their friends want a new government. One attended a small college that had an active fraternity called Russia House, where they studied Russian, and had the Soviet flag and a giant bust of Lenin proudly displayed. They threw huge parties to indoctrinate the campus into hating our government. Many millennials and older people feel that the government should provide free everything. They want their student loans forgiven.

Because the first thing that came up in my search is a clip of Shapiro meeting Pope Leo, and giving him his 2005 White Sox baseball, signed by the team. And then in recent interview saying that the USA should be a Christian nation, and explaining why. And I recommend his monologue about Carson , Fuentes and the whole thing.

494 Alex Karp, CEP of Palantir, made a claim this morning I have never heard before. He says more Americans were killed in 2024 by illegal fentanal from China via Venezuela and Latin America than the aggregate of all the soldiers killed in wars since the end of WW2.

He also said that if the people being killed were all wealthy kids from the burbs, instead of poor kids from the inner city, America would have dropped bombs on Latin America long ago.

Anyway, I gotta check out that claim but I am passing it on for your consideration.

495 The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 was a $1.9 trillion economic stimulus signed into law by Biden to help the US recover from the C-19 pandemic.

It provided direct payments to eligible individuals as stimulus checks; increased Child Tax Credit; funding for state, local and tribal governments; support for businesses and non-profits. Also Medicaid funding for state Medicaid programs to support home- and community-based services.

Further, the American Rescue Plan provided additional subsidies to the ACA by expanding eligibility for premium tax credits to more people and increasing the amount of financial help for those already eligible. This included eliminating the "subsidy cliff" for incomes over 400% of the federal poverty level and providing a special subsidy for those who received unemployment benefits in 2021.

Temporary subsidies were originally two years of enhanced subsidies (2021 and 2022).

These enhanced subsidies, originally temporary, were later extended through 2025 by the Inflation Reduction Act.

There is no more f'ing money!!. We're trillions in hock over both ^ Acts and a huge part of the $ from both Acts can't be legally accounted for.

Yes, Fuentes has been around for years. I'm old enough to remember that Fuentes was there on J6, exhorting people to storm the Capitol, yet somehow was never arrested or charged. Like Robert Spencer, he exists so that the Democrats/MSM/NeverTrump can point at him and say "You have actual Nazis in your party!"

What I think needs to be explored is this: why does he have so many followers? I mean, we rightly wonder why Mamdani has so many people who buy his BS, so why does Fuentes have any audience? What need is he hitting that others are missing - and how do we fix that? That would be more constructive than all this fighting and calling everyone a Nazi.

523 In the United States, approximately 22-28% of white children are born out of wedlock, according to recent data. This rate has increased significantly since 1990, nearly doubling from about 15% to 28%. Factors contributing to this trend include the decline of "shotgun weddings," and changes in social and economic norms.

And so their Daddy is Uncle Sam, too.

Can't have it all. Hopefully, many of the women are decent mothers to their children and I'd much rather have that than abortions at 22+ weeks.

BTW, back decades ago, many of my friends & a cousin or two were unwed moms and they were still the 'good girls.'

Most went on to college, held decent jobs, raised some amazing kids.

They were (and are) valuable to our society. And citizens. We need to take care of ours first.

That part is obvious. Yet somehow Fuentes followers must be destroyed, while Mamdani followers are simply mocked? This is all so tiresome. We had to fight over and destroy the fringe Qanaon people, before that, the Tea Party. How is it one side gets to let their freaks free to do their dirty work, while we must constantly fight amongst ourselves as the Democrats keep winning?

Maybe we can be concerned about Fuentes and Owens without giving it center stage and the topic upon which all people must go one record or be cancelled forever?

As you say, there are always some dumb people.
So why do we now have John Poderetz calling The Federalist's Sen Davis a freakin' Nazi over it?

527 Trump signed the executive order in March, directing that within 30 days, “the Election Assistance Commission shall take appropriate action to require, in its national mail voter registration form issued under 52 U.S.C. 20508 … documentary proof of United States citizenship.”

But District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled the order is unconstitutional, arguing Trump “lacks the authority to direct such changes.”

“Because our Constitution assigns responsibility for election regulation to the states and to Congress, this Court holds that the President lacks the authority to direct such changes.
==========================
Her reasoning turns on this word, "changes".

If in fact she is correct, non-citizens have the right to vote in this country. And to limit elections to citizens only is to effect a "change".

But that's nonsense on it's face. Only Americans have the right to vote in our elections, and Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly is a dumb shit engaged only in pure sophistry. Judges like her are why our legal system is so fucked.

  • None dare call it a bubble: The AI industry is running on FOMO. (The Verge) (archive site)

    I'm not sure bankruptcy is something I'd fear missing out on though:
    Dedicated AI companies are burning through cash in the meantime: OpenAI reportedly hit $12 billion in annualized revenue this summer - while reportedly being on track to burn through $115 billion through 2029.
    The company has since pushed its expected cash burn up to $1 trillion dollars, albeit over a less well-defined timespan.
    Tension over this mismatch, Fath said, is ratcheting up. There's a "push and pull between those companies and investors," he added. "Investors are saying, 'Am I going to get a return on this spend?'" It's one of the increasingly clear indicators that some parts of the AI industry are a bubble - but it doesn't yet tell us what happens after it pops.
    You get wet.
    OpenAI's rumored IPO is a perfect example of the conundrum, Alter added. The company wants to secure about 26 gigawatts of computing capacity for data centers (which translates to about $1.5 trillion at current costs, per Alter) - meaning that even with the company's current revenue, an up to $100 billion investment from Nvidia, and other "circular deals," Alter says she still hasn't been able to understand how the company's clear funding gap gets solved.
    Correction: You take a bath.

    The company declined to comment on how much it spent on the slop, but said that around 100 people worked on the project - a similar number to earlier non-AI-slop campaigns.

I'm glad that I had the cam-lock tool handy, as the VVT hubs make it tricky to set the timing right. And with an interference engine, smacking a valve and killing the engine is always a possibility.

54 “Ufo’s and Nukes” by Robert Hastings is an interesting read. There were a lot of really strange failures at missile sites in the 50s and 60s, well documented from declassified accounts and witnesses who felt it was OK to talk about many years later. There was some nexus between cattle mutilations in the book as I recall, they would be concurrent in the area to some degree.

The air force guys would be deep in a bunker, and everything would shut down. They had triple redundant power - electricity grid, diesel generators, and battery banks. Everything inop. “Sir! Ya gotta come up here, you won’t believe it!” I don’t know what to think, other than maybe trying to contact “them” is probably a bad idea

Without starting an argument with the local commenter who thinks AI is the bee's knees, it's not that AI is important to your job... it's that people in management are easily led by the nose to accept that "the current thing" is super important. Consequently, pointy-haired boss insists that you use AI, even if it either provides an inferior result or requires more work to achieve parity because AI!

"Use ChatGPT. I've started (and finished!) several projects that I never had the time or energy for without AI. It helps enormously pointing you in exactly the right direction, assists with laying out the options at key decision points, with debugging.

ChatGPT-5 is now good enough that you can more-or-less have it write entire scripts for you, and they generally work.

94 >>> "Am I the only one who thinks that if AI is that important to your job then maybe your job isn't that important?"

In my field, we keep getting dumped more projects on our plates, with less workers to do them. We can't keep up with the pace, but our work gets that you need a brain not a machine behind what we do. For now, at least, my work wants humans to do the thinking. Not a machine.

But the thinking process can be streamlined by AI, not replaced, and the brainstorming stages can be as well. So we can keep up with the pace of projects, with the AI handling the more boring parts of the process.

If you were a legit 3D animation shop and presented that AI ad to Coca Cola execs as the vision board rendering of what the ad COULD be, but then hired an animation team to bring it to life... how cool would that be? It would cut the brainstorming time and the budget down for the agency, while still having artistic hands firmly in control of the visuals and the feeling. You still have humans making the art and getting a paycheck.

Do not get me started on the comments in the Verge article that advertising isn't actually art, or that stellar ads take artistry to make. Do not.

97 The Kennedy administration really was an odd one in American history. Here was a young, good-looking President and First Lady, after eight years of stodgy old Eisenhower and his wife, and the country fell in love with them. (Or the media wanted us to believe that.) There was the PT 109 movie coming out *while* he was still president. There were no movies about FDR's younger days or Ike's made *while* either of them was in the Oval Office; Sunrise at Campobello, about FDR, and The Longest Day showcasing Eisenhower at D-Day, came out after they'd left office.

Revell even released a fairly large-scale plastic model kit of the PT 109 boat while JFK was president, to tie in with the movie -- but it added to JFK's glamour.

Unusual, that period.

I'm going through that right now. I am assembling a list of references for a book I hope to live long enough to write. I'm taking information - authors, journal, year, volume, page - from a very old spreadsheet, plugging it into Google Scholar, going to the publisher's site and downloading the complete citation and abstract to plug into EndNote.

There are a few thousand of these records to process. It will take a couple more months to finish. But I can look at each reference, read the abstract and figure out where this would fit in to the larger scheme of things. If I said to AI, "Get a list of non-patent references on metallocene catalysts for olefin polymerization," it would still take a couple of months to sort out the results.

The 2026 Old Farmer's Almanac predicts above-average temperature and below-average precipitation for the coming winter, which is fine with me.

Last week (Friday?) I mentioned an intermittent stabbing pain in my head just above the left ear. In the following days, it's been receding down to an irritating sort of 'pinch,' but it won't go away completely. My PCP wants me to go to the ER, but I hate the idea of wasting an entire day sitting there if this is - as I think it is - a nerve pinch or something simple. I think, though, that I am going to have to go after all.

Anyway, another hour or two of work beckons. Talk to you all later.

105 It helps enormously pointing you in exactly the right direction, assists with laying out the options at key decision points, with debugging.

I'll have to give v5 a try then. My prior experience is that is does NOT point you the right direction, but rather encourages you further down the same, potentially flawed, path you're on.

When I told it I was going to ditch the current development path for a different approach, it replied "Yes, that is a better approach."

In the mad rush to make AI helpful they instead made it affirming, which isn't the same thing.

112 More on the JFK time: The Dick Van Dyke Show's Rob Petrie and Laura even *looked* a lot like John and Jackie; Laura wore her hair that way, and even Rob's haircut suggested John's thick brown hair. I'm not sure there's ever been a sitcom that did anything like that, then or since.

Fortunately for us viewers, the DVD series didn't rely only on that resemblance, and was actually well-written and funny. Carl Reiner, the show's creator, had played the lead in an earlier pilot abut a comedy writer's work and home life, and he certainly did not resemble JFK in any way.

Yes, Reiner played Brady, the tyrannical but funny star of the variety show with his name. The earlier version was 1958's Head of the Family. I'm not sure who played his wife in it. But apparently the network, CBS, liked eh series, but disliked Reiner in the lead. This led to the DVD show.

142 On my card for today: I'm running over to Home Depot to buy some insulation, the rigid board kind, to install around the window unit A/C in my front window. The expandable panels that came with the unit to block the rest of the window space are terrible; and Stirling loves to paw at the foam insulation I've taped around them. So I'm going to see if I can cut some panels and wedge them into the spaces, both inside and out, to keep cold drafts out (and keep the cooled A/C air in).

Also I've written to a local CPA firm on my side of the river to see if we can meet. I wonder if I'm on track for my taxes for next year, as I have not told SSA to withhold taxes from my benefits, but have sent some estimated payments to the IRS. My numbers say I may not owe a huge amount next spring. It'd be good to check on that.

Piffle. Every verb can be used as a noun.

169 Under the spook money cutout in the 1950s, Kentucky State Prison had some sort of outpatient drug addict facility. Inmates were allowed to get their drug of choice, in exchange for volunteering for special drug trials. Mostly psychodelics, in one notable example at least 3 inmates were kept tripping on acid for 77 days straight. Since sleep deprivation was part of the experiment they used cattle prods when they would start to nod off. Your tax dollars (off the books) at work.

201 I expect the first big money maker for AI will be producing entertainment that wouldn't otherwise exist due to budgets or critical actors being inconveniently dead. (Note that Disney has already locked down James Earl Jones voice for use specifically to create new appearances of Darth Vader. The rest of the cast is bound to follow on the basis of assuring a steady income for their heirs.)

This will go in stages, working up from half-hour anime episode conversions with built in storyboards to entirely new feature films. The easiest but hugely profitable will be converting long running anime series to pseudo-live action. As an example, 'Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood'. This adapts the complete manga series from start to finish. Yes, there was a live action movie in Japan but while it pulled off some stuff pretty well, it had serious budget limitations and an all Japanese cast in a story that had very specific ethnicity of each character, none of them Japanese.

Once you establish for the AI what the main recurring cast looks like, the Elric brothers, various alchemists, the sins, etc., it can keep cranking them out over the 65 episode length of the series.

202 So that first episode costs, say $10 million. But all that follow only need editorial input for one-shot characters and locations, which should bring the remaining 64 episode in at a much lower cost. For well under $100 million you'd end up with 32.5 hours of live action adaptation of a proven property. You'd likely be in profits very quickly.

There 's already indications of people working towards this, with demos on Youtube of what a well-known character like Wilma Flintstone looks like as a actual human. Adapting animation this way should be the easiest starting point.

204 it's definitely a bubble

otoh real GDP is growing at 4% despite historically elevated interest rates, weak labor markets, and historically unprecedented outmigration

https://www.atlantafed.org/cqer/research/gdpnow#Tab3

wouldn't be shocking if per capita GDP growth reaches 7-8% next year

every bubble leaves behind enormous quantities of wealth

just not as enormous as many hoped

Overnight Open Thread (11/03/2025)

MTWashautumn.jpg

Mount Washington is a cute little peak in comparison to the real mountains of the American West. But because of its peculiar location right smack in the middle of some very common storm tracks, it makes the weather on the mountain very, very strange. The surrounding lower mountains funnel those systems right into Mount Washington, so things like 100mph wind, and snow in August can happen. The earliest snowfall on record is on July 1st. And the latest snowfall on record is on June 30th.

See the pattern?

Couple that with the profoundly stupid population of the Northeast, and we get things like this! In their defense, it is entirely possible to enjoy a glorious warm fall day at the base of the mountain, while it is sleeting and blowing 50mph halfway up!

Of course, this has been known about Mount Washington since it was first climbed in 1642, so maybe it's just Darwin at work! Anybody who climbs any of these peaks without proper preparation is simply stupid. I climbed Mount Lafayette, about 30 miles away and 1,000 feet shorter, a long time ago, and a partly cloudy day at the base gave way to sleet, fog, 40mph winds, and lots of ice on the trail. On the other hand, steak and beer at The Outing Club lodge that night, so it all worked out!

******

Go to your rooms...all of you. To say that I am bitterly disappointed in every one of you is an understatement. Not a single one of you made the connection between the top picture and the song behind it in the ONT from two weeks ago.

Do better.

Be better.

Those stupid, virtue-signaling lawn signs that proclaim how absolutely wonderful the occupants are make me want to drive over their lawns and do 360s. There is so much hypocrisy built into them that I guess the appropriate response is to laugh and point, but I still bristle when I see them.

But... how about this one?

Midnight Central Time, Bicentennial Jul 4, 1976, a perfectly clear and calm night, a friend and I watched a UFO flying from 'way south to 'way north. It was flying. We were pretty sure it was an object. And we couldn't identify it. I'll never forget that harrowing experience.

51 Hiking to the top of Mt Washington was a bit eerie. Once you get above tree line you might as well be on another planet. Visibility goes out the window once you get into the clouds. There are trail markers which were just piles of rocks, and 1 time it was so bad you couldn't see 15 feet in front of you. You really...really had to make sure you found the next trail marker. They were close together, but it was still hairy. There is a lodge type thing just a little ways before the summit, and we almost walked into it the visibility was so bad.

did 60-70 miles on Appalachian trail. Why? because again, our scoutmaster was an asshole. I will say something about that trail. I could be wrong, but it might be a secret meetup for the gays. I was on a 4 day trip in september on the harleys with about 9 other bikes. We were in stokes state forest at a bar on a lake. A pretty young kid, very late teens/early 20s with a back pack asks me if if I had a cigarette. We start talking, he says he's doing the whole trail, started in the spring, looking to finish by november. He's with 4 other dudes. They seems to be a little...comfortable with each other. Hugging each other, etc. they come over to my table, and I ask, sooo you 4 been doing this together? The one kid says No, we just met today, he's leaving the trail tomorrow, the other 2 are going another way". Well now, they seemed awfully friendly with each other for just meeting, and looking at them my Gaydar was going off the frigging chart.

Moderation in all things

73 Used to live up there for a few years. When I wasn't wrestling bears, or knocking moose over with an airhorn I actually did climb Mt. Washington. I took the Tuckerman Ravine route. Tuckerman Ravine is not a place you want to go after September or before June. It's affectionately known as the Dumping Ground. The reason is that the high winds displace the snow from the top of Mt. Washington and it has to go somewhere. It usually ends up in Tuckerman Ravine....which holds the record of 49 inches of snow in ....(drum roll) ONE FREAKIN HOUR. In 1968-1969....Tuckerman Ravine acquired over 566 inches of snow. That's over 47 feet of snow.

Now about that climb. It wasn't easy. But, also, not impossible. I felt like I really accomplished something until I saw all the tourists (old people and kids) at the top of Mt. Washington. They took the cog railroad which runs up there in good weather. Sort of took the wind out of my accomplishment. I didn't walk down.

Heh! That's similar to the highest point in Nebraska, Panorama Point. Its on some guys cattle ranch and for a minimal fee, you can drive to the marker and gaze upon the mighty peaks that surround you. Well, rolling grasslands. You can probably see the Rockies on a clear day. Never been there but I would love to visit, because I'm weird.

I've hiked, well drove, up the highest peak in Pennsylvania. Mt. Davis. I drove up to the parking lot and walked up a tower the PA Park service built so you are above all the tree's. It is a beautiful view of the region.

It's colder than it looks, even in summer. You don't stay on top of Mt. Washington long if you go by tour, so you might get chilled for a bit. But I was in Gatlinburg in July and had to wear a jacket at night; it was in the upper 80's, low 90's in the day. Same for The Poconos.

The other thing that kind of turned me off to ever hiking the Appalachian Trail for any length were the serial killers who preyed on hikers. Not talked about a lot but happens up and down the trail. Particularly the more accessable by car terrain. Park nearby (which I've done at an isolated spot) and get on the trail. Find a victim and skedaddle. Some local roads come real close to The Trail. Maybe they have cameras now but not way back when.

A very good word from Wales. A time of innocense, of discovering myself in the mountains of the West, that first powerful, entralling moment of meeting. No drug like mutual attraction that hits you with force.

No regrets. I've been blessed abundantly with love and family and lived to see my grandchildren with the man I was meant to be with. Who arrived without warning a year later, thanks be to God.

Dedicated to young love that formed on a spring day of cherry trees blooming...and ended on a fall day four months later. Well, his life did, my love never ended.

2. The Ukrainians are trying to break out, and relief forces are trying to break in, with limited success so far.
3. In a bizarre incident, the Ukrainians used two Blackhawk helicopters to drop off a dozen troops at the edge of the battle area. The troops, assumed to be some high speed, low drag special forces operators on an extraction mission of a high value asset, made it about a mile before they were all picked off by drones.

Hiked a dozen times. Was told in the sixties it's the second most climbed mountain in the world, behind only Fuji.
No idea if that's true.

170 While I don't like Redford's liberal politics, I do like some of his movies. I recently saw, on Amazon, "A Walk in the Woods" or hiking Appalachian Trail that I enjoyed.

Have read a few Bill Bryson books in the past that I liked...need to read again this winter.

I met Redford in my glorious prime (he's older). I still count his facial moles to see if he had any removed...and that's how I knew it was him. He did not, by the way. He ageds so badly before his death they were hard to find in the roadmap of his wrinkles.

He was at least 3 or 4" shorter than me. I acted like I did not know who he was, but I did. I could have jumped him to see what would have happened!!! A few years after Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

But I did not speak to him or act like a ninny, he probably thought I would, though, after we made eye contact in close quarters. I let him go on to more fame without being in the news.

It's not an original thought by me, but drones are having the same impact on warfare that the introduction of the machine gun had at the end of the 19th century. Everything that we thought we knew about how to run a battlefield is now as obsolete as horse cavalry and standing in ranks for musket volley fire.

179 My first ski lift ride was on a Poma lift in 1977 that was installed in the 50's. You grab a bar with a small seat on it and ride to the top on your skis. Sky Tavern on the Reno side of Tahoe.
Only class' 4 and higher were allowed on the new modern 2 seat chair lift manufactured by Lift Industries of Carson City NV. I did 3/4 of the rope splice on the lift that replaced it in 1999.

That chair lift scared the hell out of me as a 7yo and as I later learned, for good reason.
I've worked on some pretty old ski lifts in my brief career in the industry and Lift Engineering were the worst. Bull wheels had to be tested NDT every year. Shit rusted. Crappy back up drives. The list goes on. They were the first to incorporate MIG welders and suddenly every tweeker in town was an awesome welder willing to work for shit wages. Which Lift loved almost as much as the polish slave labor force that worked and lived there.
Doppelmyer and Poma rock.
Oldest I worked on was Ridge, a 1966 SLI lift out of New York. Beloved by the locals, maintnence heavy but solid. Still in operation today.
I love skiing. Wish I was in good enough shape to do it still.

The Vibe may have to do with it's probably the oldest settled areas, long before we 'invaded'. Lots of History in New England, stretching to the Adirondacks.

My funniest story was I was on business just north of Boston, in Danvers, early October. I was driving around at night after work looking for a nice local joint for a seafood dinner and realized I was driving through 'The Salem'. Made a point to drive by the Memorial. Didn't stop, I was hungry, but I made a point to drive by the location. Drive-by respects, so to speak.

187 "Mount Washington is a cute little peak in comparison to the real mountains of the American West." TRUE! Out here the reds in the mountains fade fast in September, but the golds and even some orange aspen are glorious.

I currently live on a windy ridge a mile from part of a range. It's the windy time of year bringing storms, with wind from a canyon every night.

I have gotten used to the wind in the attic, and creaking like a ship. Our bedrooms are upstairs, and sometimes the east wall vibrates a bit and I have to camp out in another bedroom. My husband sleeps through it. The bed is like one of those motel ones you'd put a quarter into...which I thought was pretty weird one night of our honeymoon. Waterbeds I understood, but the vibration bed was just weird.

The leaves are falling fast, golden maples and red/orange ornamental cherry trees and the crab apple trees next to the house to the south. A ton of raking but I love them. Then I love the bare trees and grey days of winter, and could play a Fleetwood Mac song dedicated to them but I won't.

I love all seasons, but spring and fall are favorites for the color shows.

We were 22yrs when we met. 23 when he got his act together. 24yrs when we married.

I think he finally figured out the grass was not greener, prettier or funnier on the other side after the first year and I never begged or acted the fool. No way in hell was I ever chasing a guy. The secret to success was me going on with life and him still lurking around.

I told him recently I wish I had dated a few times to make him jealous or see what he'd do. Unfortunately for me I never played games...or had time to think of games in college. I carried on, my wayward friends and he figured I was a keeper. I told him then to get his act together and we'll talk about it in a year. 8mo later we were married.

G'night and happy trails.

Congratulations! It also takes love and friendship and a lotta laughs. Plus he's still handsome.

49yrs ago dating. Married for 46yrs and counting. St Patrick's Day is our anniversary, an accident as the only Saturday of his spring break from college. Little did I realize the world celebrates with us, including a dark beer down a pale green suit one night at a street party on our 12th. We stay home now for the big night!

New Orleans was insane that night as well for our honeymoon, where we met some family and friends on our wedding night after dinner. Everyone who came to our wedding then went to NOLA as many were from out of state. We never saw anyone else that week.

197 Greetings hordlings, from your man in the Orient. Hotter n' hell in Singapore this week - but managed to get some long distance running in and some hiking. Ended one run at a local bar that specializes in showing US sporting events, run by a friend, to watch the World Series at 8:00am. Boy oh boy - did the baseball gods not want the Blue Jays to win that. That being said - very impressive pitching from the Dodgers, especially Yamamoto. With Canada being so pissy lately I am not unhappy to see the trophy stay in the US, but am usually an "anyone but the Red Sox or Dodgers" kind of guy - and with LA being so, well, anti-American, it seems a shame. But I have to say, that was the stuff of legend.

On Mt Washington in NH, have hiked that and taken the cog railway - I would not go near that mountain any time after mid September and certainly not before Mid May or early June. just top be safe.. Once, in late August, we went from a sweltering high 80s on the valley floor to a low 30s with light freezing rain and snowfall at the mountaintop. Yeah, respect that mountain, my hiking brethren, it can and will kill you. Always pack an insulating, impermeable layer for the entire bod.

208 I have a question I've been meaning to ask anyone:

Why does Britney Spears still dance alone in her garbage and dog poo videos. In strange bikini mismatched outfits?I mean, it is obvious she wants attention to apply that dark smudge stuff on her eyes. I have never watched, just see stills and a story I don't read on the UK DM.

She obviously needs a whole lotta help as she's a mess and a half (unsure what ICD code that is).

Then why does the UK DM still publish her decsent into further madness. I remember when she hacked off her hair and attacked someone with an umbrella, but can't remember a week ago. I guess that will be the signal.

I wonder if she has fans or people watching for the signal. She was driving drunk recently and did not get pulled over like I would have (I don't drive drunk). Looks mad as a hatter. Barking mad.

Seeing her weekly photo sort of irritates me.

The Olive tree of Vouveson on the island of Crete, Greece, is one of the oldest olive trees in the world.

Scientists from the University of Crete have estimated it to be 4,000 years old, which means that, when it sprouted, the last mammoths were still walking on Earth, someone in China was discovering bronze casting and the seventh Egyptian dinasty was declining.

The Minoan civilization was thriving and its monumental architecture was adorning the island of Crete. The first stones of the Palace of Minos at Knossos which inspired the myth of the Minotaur were laid.

This tree saw the humans deeds for thousands of years, from the Bronze Age to the artificial intelligence and, possibly the most amazing thing, it continues to produce olives at every season.

It attacks your muscle. Your heart is a muscle. This is in addition to the gastrointestinal issues, of which the paralysis can be permanent, the blindness. The grey tinge to your skin, etc. Moreover, if you don’t change how you eat and live, you will gain it all back and then some. I definitely have empathy with people who want to/ need to lose weight and how hard it is to do it and then sustain. I also think people need to have a realistic goal as to what their body type is, and where they are able to sustain. No diet is going to make you a super model if you aren’t built like one to start. The mindset needs to switch to being healthier, and not chase skinny. If you are truly overweight, just 10% of your body weight lost can result in improved blood pressure, reduced joint fatigue, improved sleep. Small, achievable goals make you far less likely to give up in frustration.

The grey tinge to your skin, etc. Moreover, if you don’t change how you eat and live, you will gain it all back and then some. I definitely have empathy with people who want to/ need to lose weight and how hard it is to do it and then sustain. I also think people need to have a realistic goal as to what their body type is, and where they are able to sustain. No diet is going to make you a super model if you aren’t built like one to start. The mindset needs to switch to being healthier, and not chase skinny. If you are truly overweight, just 10% of your body weight lost can result in improved blood pressure, reduced joint fatigue, improved sleep. Small, achievable goals make you far less likely to give up in frustration.

I didn't notice it back then, but in the movie they say in the movie that in 2022 there will be 40 million people in New York City, even the oceans will be dying, and of course most infamously we are reduced as a nation and as a planet to cannibalism to survive: all thanks to the Industrial Revolution and population growing out of control.

I found out after losing all of that weight that I have a condition called Lipedema.

After reading up on it, I am convinced that most, if not all, of the people that we refer to as Land Whales also have Lipedema and/or Lymphedema.

Both conditions are insidious, and no amount of diet and/or exercise will help "cure" the condition. In fact, when the weight inevitably creeps back on, all of the weight goes to the problem areas.

Go to lipedema.org for more information before judging these people (of whom I used to be one, at 270 pounds)

Today was a date of astro-gnomonical significance, the yearly maximum of the Equation of Time. High noon was 16 min and 27 s earlier relative to mean time. The true sun has been lollygagging behind the mean for a while, and now has stopped that and will start catching back up.

This means high noon will start shifting slowly later for a couple of months, and the balance of the shortening in daylight will shift to the morning side relative to the clock.

There's about equal now, but over the next couple weeks, you'll notice sunrise starts getting later faster than sunset gets earlier relative to the clock time. Earliest sunset is about two weeks before solstice, depending on latitude. Sunrise will continue to get later and later until early Jan.

Yes! And a change in diet, voila, you get where you need to go without the risks. Most everyone knows my story, I lost over 80 pounds by changing my life (and then going nuts and buying a boutique fitness studio and getting a nutrition degree, so maybe SOME side effects to my way of doing things 🤣 ) It was not fun, but now I can’t imagine living like I used to do. I am smaller than I have ever been, I was always chunky monkey, even when I was dancing a lot. My body shape is what it is, I am curvy. You know this. I have round muscles instead of long and lean.

I am very aware of this, and have a number of clients with it, and clients who we are building muscle back because the only true way to remove the extra fat from thighs when you suffer from this is liposuction (insurance will pay for it after you go through therapy and lymphatic drainage, when those don’t work, you are left with surgery). When you have this, It’s painful and you will lose / tone is other areas but your legs, ankles, and sometimes, but not always, arms, don’t seem to budge and get bigger with time. It’s an awful condition. And I would never, ever call anyone a land whale. Being mean to people does absolutely nothing. It hurts. Being called chubby hurts. I know first hand.

Posted by: Piper at November 03, 2025 08:39 PM (Wmg4n)

132 And FTW, when I graduated high school, I weighed 100 pounds soaking wet.

Lipedema is a disease of the connective tissue - body fat is stored in lovely lumps in between the skin and the muscle, and once it gets there, the only way to get rid of it is a very specialized lymph-sparing form of liposuction, followed by excision of the excess skin and tissue so that more fat can't get back in that tissue. Compression garments have to be worn forever after.

I had never heard of it; someone on the Mounjaro support groups saw my before and after pictures and saw what I now know were "Lipedema Legs".

Mounjaro/Zepbound has literally saved my life. If not for finding out about it, I wouldn't have started a 4-surgery plan (with a board certified surgeon) to finally get my body back to something resembling a normal body. I also wouldn't have caught this nasty cancer in time to possibly give me a fighting chance at long-term survival.

I am quite serious about looking into Lipedema -

143 I am down to 155 pounds for the first time in 40 years - at 5'0", I am still considered obese (but not morbidly obese any more). I was not able to get my 3rd surgery (which would have removed an additional 20 pounds of fat and tissue from my legs - I had 20 pounds removed in December, 2023 with my first lipedema surgery) because of recurrent UTIs, which was how we found the cancer.

I am super bummed that I am not going to have legs that don't look like a Sharpei puppy, but if I hadn't lost weight on Mounjaro, and thus found out about Lipedema, I wouldn't have found this cancer before it was too late.

I'm kinda on the GLP-1 bandwagon, mostly because it saved me (in more ways than one).

So far I'm keeping off the weight I've dropped starting beginning in May 2023 (I'm embarrassed to say how many pounds - a LOT). It is a struggle some days but I believe I've trained my brain to stay away from massive amounts of carbs. Also I have a lot of discipline at the grocery store.

155 I tried more diets and exercise programs than you can shake a stick at. I was on my high school drill team, and did gymnastics and dance when I was younger. I was a scrawny kid/teen.

But some switch got turned on when I left for college, and the weight came on, settled in my lower body, and stubbornly held on.

Every time I lost weight, my upper body would get skinny, but my legs stubbornly held onto every morsel of fat that it could.

I can only speak from personal experience, but I am not ashamed to tell you that when I started looking into Lipedema, I started crying - because I realized for the first time in my adult life that IT WAS NOT MY FAULT. And every person's story was the same.

Thankfully, doctors are starting to be aware of it. I would not be surprised if GLP-1s are eventually able to be used as an effective treatment for Lipedema and Lymphedema, and covered by insurance for people with both of those conditions.

It has been really nice to get rid of the "food noise" which accompanies these diseases.

There is apparently a new process that turns nitrites directly into ammonia without the intermediary NO3 stage, using nano-silver. The puff-piece did not have specifics, but they might be holding off for patents. It is an interesting idea, imagine being able to clear sewer effluent cheaply for a change.

161 122 Piper,

If you're still here: do you ever deal with people at the other end of the scale? Those who struggle to gain weight? I have hemochromatosis--too much iron--so have to have frequent blood draws. A pint of blood is a pound. I don't have them to spare, particularly since I can't eat iron-rich beef/bison/lamb.
Posted by: Wenda at November 03, 2025

It is equally ugly to tell people who have issues with maintaining weight that they are lucky. I don’t work with anyone truly as a nutritionist, that was because I become obsessed with making food a tool for living healthy instead of obsessing over when I could eat again. For you, if you are not, please get with a dietician as they are really amazing for those with medical conditions like yours. They can develop an eating plan for you and align with exercise to help maintain bone density, which I am sure is a concern you have. I do work with very light weights with a client who has an eating disorder for this very reason, limited to 2 days a week. She has been a client long enough that when I see she is spiraling, I can be pretty blunt with getting her in to her doctor. She has put on about 10 pounds and I am super proud of her.

And like I said, I have pretty much leveled off - at this point, I am in "Maintenance Mode".

I have lost a couple of pounds since being on cancer meds, but that has more to do with food having the texture of AND tasting like wet cardboard. The mouth sensitivity doesn't help, either.

If it weren't for the extra lipedema tissue on my lower body, I would be at what I would consider a good/healthy weight. That extra tissue isn't coming off without surgery, so I am content to stay where I am.

My oncologist did say that he is the only doctor who doesn't want me to lose weight. Where has he been all of my life?🤣🤣🤣

In the early 60's the president of the local college invited a communist speaker to address the students, the speaker had asked to present his case for adopting the politics in the US. This was extremely controversial among the students and the faculty and he faced a serious backlash and a number of threats. He persevered because he felt it was more important to have such discussions, not because he felt they were right, but because silencing voices meant the ideas could not be addressed, that there was no way to find the flaws or inconsistencies, and even more important, silencing and censoring political viewpoints was what tyrannies do.

NO3- is nitrate. It doesn't precipitate. Sewage has suspended solids removed by settling, and the smallest particles are made to agglomerate into larger particles by adding a flocculating agent. Nothing leaves solution, i.e., nothing precipitates.

I do remember being amazed (there was even an equation for it!) at how little bleach needed to be added (to what was eventually left over) to neutralize the germs in the liquid.

Mind you, this was back in 1980, so I am sure that many improvements have been made since then!

When something is hidden, unvoiced and unexpressed, then even if it is really crazy shit, it seems plausible. When it is hidden away and suppressed, it seems like something to support as an underdog.
Any problem solver will say, "drag it into the light, describe it fully and find the flaws and the nasty bits"

But this is rejected by many since it suggested that their pet theories with a bit of "umpty umpty" to get through the thin spots in the logic might need to be examined too.

224 The great majority of real evangelicals are non denominational and fly under the radar. But some groups you may have heard are the Assemblies of God, the Nazarenes, and of course the Pentecostals. The upscale Christian groups have always looked down on them.

225 Tucker loved the neocons erotically, when that paid. He hated them when that paid, and now that the sun has set has set on that particular scam, he's found a new one. Megyn Kelly is similar in her shape-shifting, obligate grifter travels, and so is the rest of the professional Right... it's one of history's great cash scams because their marks can never remember more than six months in the past.

My father, in his later years, got to thinking about all this a lot. Southern Baptists have been mostly dispensationalists of late, but he got into the history, and decided that was more recent, and the early Baptists were not.

He came to pretty much reject dispensationalism.

It's according to how one defines evangelical. The Baptists are an evangelical group. They send people all over the world teaching the gospel. There are a great number of independent evangelicals who do not belong to a specific denomination.

251 Oh, please. Cooper's argument boils down to "Churchill should have accepted Hitler's ephemeral, non-binding, unofficial peace overtures, and averted war."

Those overtures were never more than tentative probing for a weakness, like all Hitler's other proposals, but even if you take them at face value, the man was demanding that the world's most powerful empire should forfeit any influence in European affairs, in exchange for his own guarantee of that empire.

It's laughable to think a British Prime Minister would bite on that bait. Even a fag like Chamberlain wouldn't have gone that far.

Churchill was only one faction, others favored Germany if only because of their dislike of the USSR. Prior to that final decision for war, the UK was trying to keep in the good graces with both Germany and the USSR, much the way Germany was trying to keep in the good graces with the UK and the USSR. Germany had also been trading with the Nationalist Chinese and the Japanese until the Japanese complained. Things were very much in flux.

There had been so much evidence that the UK might be amenable to an entente outside of Churchill's faction that Rudolf Hess decided to fly in to try to arrange some sort of understanding. If Churchill had been deposed, the thinking went, the war could be ended. Chamberlain was not the only one who would have tried to change the direction of the war.

Personally, I doubt the UK was ever in favor of Zionism, they were only in favor of keeping control of oil fields, and saw the Mandate a key to that strategy.

309 Definitely Monday here. First thing this morning, got a call from hub's nursing home: He tested positive for the Coof. Oh, joy

So, they've got him cooped up in his room, rack of PPE on the door & signs up, blahblah, and he has no idea why he can't go to the dining room for lunch. Wants to go outside for a smoke. Nope. Ugh.

I couldn't stay long, had appointments. Poor hubby. He seemed a little 'off' this weekend, but not real bad.

Fking coof. They're trying to make it A Thing again.

314 There had been so much evidence that the UK might be amenable to an entente outside of Churchill's faction that Rudolf Hess decided to fly in to try to arrange some sort of understanding. If Churchill had been deposed, the thinking went, the war could be ended. Chamberlain was not the only one who would have tried to change the direction of the war.

Personally, I doubt the UK was ever in favor of Zionism, they were only in favor of keeping control of oil fields, and saw the Mandate a key to that strategy.
Posted by: Kindltot at November 03, 2025 10:25 PM (rbvCR)

Zionism has little to nothing to do with Cooper's core argument. It's just a hobby horse.

There was no evidence after Labor Day weekend of 1939 that the British were amenable to capitulation. Not even the French were at that point.

Hess was a mentally unstable narcissist whose silly plane flight was met with perhaps even more bemusement in London than Berlin.

Churchill was made Prime Minister in reaction to Chamberlain's weakness and failure. Further appeasement of the Nazis was practically the only thing would guarantee his ouster by that time.

As far as counterfactuals go, Cooper's is one of the dumbest.

316 254 -- Aetius -- The Germans started thinking of Jews as less than human parasites back in the 1880s. It tied in with Germans becoming more nature oriented with the idea that they were special. The Germans began digging more and more into their folklore and developing weird ideas about their specialness. I read about this in "Hitler's Willing Executioners" by someone I can't remember. It's in the first few chapters.

Goldhagen. But he was largely cribbing from Paul Johnson's "Westerners vs. Easterners" theory. There's a lot to that, and I like Johnson a lot, but I think they both overstate it. There was so much more going on than an intellectual struggle, as important as those are to Germans.

396 350 YD -- Anti-Semitism can be traced all the way back to the 400s or so when the Emperor sent out a decree forbidding Jews from seeking converts. Up til then Judaism was actively competing with Christianity for converts. And the idea that the Jews killed Christ goes back even further, settling in to the DNA of Europe.

Apologies for the low-quality blogging today. I'm under the weather and just trying to finish up so I can go to bed early.

The BBC was caught stitching together Trump's statements before January 6th to falsely show him as encouraging an insurrection.

Whistleblower Alleges BBC Doctored Trump January 6 Speech in Panorama Episode

A former BBC adviser's internal report accuses the broadcaster of splicing unrelated segments from Donald Trump's January 6, 2021, Ellipse rally speech in its October 25, 2024, Panorama episode 'Trump: A Second Chance?' to misleadingly imply he incited the Capitol riot. The edit combined an early call to march peacefully with a later reference to fighting electoral challenges, paired with pre-speech footage of supporters. The claims, detailed in a 19-page memo sent to BBC executives, have triggered a White House inquiry and criticism from UK politicians including Boris Johnson and Liz Truss, who call for defunding the BBC.

The Telegraph:


The BBC "doctored" a Donald Trump speech by making him appear to encourage the Capitol Hill riot, according to an internal whistleblowing memo seen by The Telegraph.
A Panorama programme, broadcast a week before the US election, "completely misled" viewers by showing the president telling supporters he was going to walk to the Capitol with them to "fight like hell", when in fact he said he would walk with them "to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard".

The "mangled" footage was highlighted in a 19-page dossier on BBC bias, which was compiled by a recent member of the corporation's standards committee and is now circulating in government departments.

The dossier said the programme made the US president "'say' things [he] never actually said" by splicing together footage from the start of his speech with something he said nearly an hour later.

It claimed senior executives and the BBC's chairman had ignored and dismissed a string of serious complaints raised by the corporation's own standards watchdog.
Donald Trump Jr, the president's eldest son, accused the BBC of dishonesty and "fake news".

He reposted The Telegraph's story on X, writing: "The FAKE NEWS 'reporters' in the UK are just as dishonest and full of s--- as the ones here in America!!!!"

The Telegraph will soon publish other excerpts of the memo, which accuse the BBC's Arabic service of bias over its coverage of the war in Gaza, and accuse the corporation of "effective censorship" of its coverage of the transgender debate.

The document raises serious questions about the culture at the BBC, how it affects impartiality and how managers including Tim Davie, the director-general, are accused of turning a blind eye to evidence of bias.

The spliced together version of Trump's comments aired by Panorama made it seem that he said: "We're gonna walk down to the Capitol and I'll be with you and we fight. We fight like hell and if you don't fight like hell, you're not gonna have a country anymore."

In reality, the first part of Trump's speech: "We're gonna walk down to the Capitol and I'll be with you," came 15 minutes into the speech. The second half of the sentence that was aired by Panorama, "and we fight. We fight like hell..." came 54 minutes later.

Fifteen minutes into the speech, Trump actually said: "We are gonna walk down to the Capitol and I'll be with you. I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."

It was completely misleading to edit the clip in the way Panorama aired it. The fact that he did not explicitly exhort supporters to go down and fight at Capitol Hill was one of the reasons there were no federal charges for incitement to riot.

That was not the end of Panorama's distortion of the day's events.

The Conservatives have demanded an immediate investigation into how the Panorama documentary was allowed to be broadcast.

Nigel Huddleston, the shadow culture secretary, said: "These are extremely concerning revelations that could seriously undermine the brand and reputation of the BBC.

"The BBC licence fee is justified on the basis of impartiality and trust.
"There can be no justification for this kind of deliberate manipulation and the spreading of misinformation. "This is not the first time that evidence of bias at the BBC has emerged, but it is one of the most stark and alarming examples to date.
"Licence-fee payers deserve an immediate explanation and apology from the BBC and a thorough investigation into this scandal must take place."

The most damaging disclosures involve a one-hour Panorama special called Trump: A Second Chance? that was broadcast in October last year.

As well as altering Mr Trump's words, the documentary also showed flag-waving men marching on the Capitol in Washington DC on Jan 6 2021 after the president spoke, which "created the impression Trump's supporters had taken up his 'call to arms'". In fact the footage, was shot before Mr Trump had even started speaking.

The report said Panorama's "distortion of the day's events" was so egregious that viewers would ask: "Why should the BBC be trusted, and where will this all end?"

I'm sure some of you won't agree at all, but its my assertion that much of airline travel is simply corporate and government malfeasance. IF you're flying for fun, good for you! But if you're flying for "business", I'm already giving you the side-eye. What is it about YOUR presence at the other location you're flying to that is so precious and so specific that a ZOOM call or phone call or series of emails couldn't be just as good of an option?

Here it is:

Remember when the blood-sucking Democrats hired 87,000 IRS agents to hunt down the American taxpayer?

It’s official:

Internal Revenue Service agents are now detailed to the Department of Homeland Security under an agreement between DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. The purpose is to provide additional immigration enforcement manpower. These agents have been authorized under Title 8 of the U.S. Code to hunt down and apprehend criminal illegal aliens for civil violations of immigration law.

The Secretary of Homeland Security: @Sec_Noem

“Instead of using Biden’s 87,000 IRS agents to take more money from Americans, I’ve directed them to help taxpayers save money — by assisting ICE in rounding up criminal illegal aliens for deportation."

If you like storms, that is a wonderful time to go. It is usually in the 60's day and night, and when the wind is too high there is a lot to do in the towns, especially the north coast from Astoria to Tillamook or Seaside. It is crab season too.

91 AOP,

I caught you posting about the audio amp a little late. You may have looked all this up but the package you describe is a TO220-27. A couple of complied make audio amps with the package. ST Micro is likely as they have two that run on 12VDC.

As far as swapping chips I would take the good unit and cut the leads off of the "chip" a couple of mm above the board and then hit with the soldering iron and grab with some needle nose to pull the remaining lead out being careful not to lift any board traces. (don't get the board too hot). Clean up the via with a solder sucker.

On the bad board with the good chip, I would either cut the chip out if there was enough lead before the bend or solder from below and pull each lead out individually.

118 James Comey was the lead prosecutor who brought charges against Martha Stewart in a 2003 insider trading investigation. Stewart was convicted in 2004 for lying to federal investigators and served five months in prison, though she maintains she was not guilty of the underlying insider trading itself. The case became a high-profile example of a celebrity being prosecuted by a prominent federal prosecutor, and it drew public attention to Comey's role as a rising legal figure.

I am dealing with super cataracts. I have some sort of thumbprints on my eyeballs they said were map dot things that have to be scraped off my eyes before I can start cataract surgery. I had the first one done Friday morning.


It was weird I was awake for the whole thing. They wheeled me into the room with a huge a$$ microscope and the doctor put a thing on my eye to hold it open and took a tiny metal scraper and ran it over my eyeball, it felt odd but not painful. I see him tomorrow to get the *band aid* contact off of my eye and I go back on the 14th to have the other eye done.


Once all of that is done and healed then I can have my eyes mapped again and start the fight with medicare to get cataract surgery approved.

Depends on where you are coming from. I was proposing to drive a friend up the Gorge to The Dalles, and go south on Hwy 97 through Dufur (stop there at the hotel) and on south to Bend or La Pine, then to Crater Lake and take a full day there, and then either go across to Medford and from there to Crescent City and up 101, or up I-5. That is a long road trip, and you may want to take a full week and miss a lot

if you want to see central Oregon, going up the Gorge and down 97 to Crater Lake is a three day drive one way
I don't know if there is a best time to see Crater lake.
While in the area there is the Newberry Volcanic Monument and in the opposite direction is Klamath Falls and Klamath Lake. Or book a room at Kahneeta Hot Springs Resort, I haven't been there since I was 12 but the website looks nice

I was told there would be pain and I have had zero pain, absolutely nothing. It feels like my normal dry eye but there is no pain at all. They gave me a prescription for hydrocodone that I said I did not want because I have bad reflux and I just puke those things up if I take them. I think it may just be me because when I left the eye surgery place they said I had better start taking my pain pills 4 hours after I left there when the anesthetic started wearing off.

It is probably the bearing surface the drum rides on. First check the drum belt to make sure it is not slipping and squealing, then make sure the tensioning pulley is OK, but it is probably the bearing surface at the door. Also check the back.

After the storms on the coast the weather is beautiful until the next storm blows in.

Suspected "Michigan Men" Terrorists Took Target Practice In Preparation of Attack: FBI

Commenters wondered -- rightly -- if this was a legit terror plan or just the FBI entrapping idiots into some hot talk.

We can't say which it is just yet. But the "Michigan Men" who spoke about shooting up synagogues over Halloween weekend did practice shooting.

Practicing shooting is no crime. But... the law of conspiracy requires an "overt act" taken in furtherance of the conspiracy to establish it's a legit plan and not just hot talk. This would satisfy that element. The overt act doesn't have to be a crime. Buying rubber gloves isn't a crime, but if you buy them after agreeing to participate in a break-in and robbery, then buying rubber gloves becomes an overt act in furtherance of the agreed-upon crime.

So no, there's nothing illegal about taking target practice.

But it is, legally, an overt act in furtherance of an alleged conspiracy to shoot up synagogues.

Suspects in foiled Halloween terror plot pictured practicing at Michigan gun range: FBI

FBI recovered stockpile of weapons from suspects who allegedly planned Detroit-area Halloween terror attack


FIRST ON FOX: Two Michigan men have been charged in a foiled ISIS-inspired terror attack that allegedly would have involved a massacre in a Detroit suburb on Halloween, according to an FBI affidavit.

Mohmed Ali, of Dearborn, Michigan, and Majed Mahmoud are accused of plotting to launch a terror-inspired mass shooting codenamed "pumpkin," according to court documents.

Classic Michigan Men names.

They've been charged with receiving, transferring and attempting to receive and transfer firearms knowing and having reasonable cause to believe that they would be used to commit terrorism.

Ali practiced shooting at a local gun range multiple times, including with Mahmoud, a juvenile suspect referred to as "Person 1" and under the alias "Athari" -- and once with an unnamed "Co-conspirator 4," according to the complaint.

The charges come after Amir Makled, a lawyer for Ali, who was arrested Friday, claimed to The Associated Press that there was no plot and that he did not expect charges to be filed. Makled did not respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital Monday.

...

In one exchange, intercepted by law enforcement, according to an affidavit, the unnamed juvenile suspect allegedly insisted that the attack should take place on Halloween and not a later date.


"So ya, I talked to my brothers. We are going to do pumpkin," he allegedly told Ali. "I talked to...[Co-conspirator 4] and [Co-conspirator 5], they said it is getting bad. So we got to do pumpkin, ya."

Read the complaint:

Before they could act, however, authorities served federal search warrants on both men's homes and a storage unit in nearby Inkster, recovering three AR-15-style rifles, two shotguns, four pistols and more than 1,600 rounds of ammunition, along with other evidence including GoPro cameras, tactical vests and other gear.

...

The complaint includes multiple unnamed co-conspirators who allegedly practiced shooting at ranges with Ali and Mahmoud. They also allegedly scouted potential attack locations in Ferndale, Michigan, a suburb north of Detroit known in part for its LGBT nightlife.

...

Ali and Athari, the juvenile suspect's alias, were allegedly planning to do the "same thing as France," in an alleged reference to the Nov. 13, 2015 ISIS attack in France that left 137 dead and more than 400 injured after gunmen and suicide bombers launched a coordinated assault on multiple locations in the French capital.

Diversity, Which Is Our Strength, has been increasingly shooty and stabby since 10/7. Almost as if they're a would-be conquering army which has infiltrated the west under cover as "civilians."

CNN naturally claimed this was all just "Islamophobia."

--CNN Deletes Piece on Dearborn ISIS Plot--

Earlier today, CNN cast doubt on the ISIS attack being planned by residents of Dearborn, Michigan, framing it as "Islamophobia."

Later, the DOJ released a 70-page criminal complaint revealing that Dearborn residents Mohmed Ali and Majed Mahmoud possessed multiple assault rifles, over 1,000 rounds of ammunition, and detailed plans to carry out an attack on behalf of ISIS.

Following that development, CNN stealth-edited its article, effectively deleting it by transforming it into a piece about the DOJ complaint -- not about "Islamophobia."


In the UK, there was another Diversity Is Our Strength stabbing murder, and I don't mean the mass casualty attack on the train. These just happen once or twice a week now.

A man is dead, and a nation is seething. The blood-curdling murder on Monday night of Wayne Broadhurst, who stepped out at 5pm to walk his dog and never returned home, has left his neighbours along with millions of his countrymen wondering 'what if?'. What if they had turned a corner as Broadhurst did, only to have a knifeman rain blow after blow down upon them. The killing in Uxbridge, a suburban town in the western reaches of Greater London, speaks to fears that run wide and deep.
auto skip

Broadhurst was 49. He was a bin man. He was well known in the community. Two days ago, he was living a normal life. Now he's gone. The suspect is a 22-year-old Afghan national. From what we know, the attack was utterly senseless. The Afghan was chasing a 45-year-old man and a 14-year-old boy when Broadhurst tried to intervene. For that act of instinctual courage, he lost his life. The 45-year-old, meanwhile, has sustained 'life-changing' injuries. The boy got off more lightly. Residents believe the alleged killer had been lodging with the 45-year-old, when he chased his landlord out on to the street. He was tasered at the scene, before being carted off by police.

It was senseless, too, in that it almost certainly could have been avoided. While there is much we do not know, while the law demands we still use 'suspect' and 'alleged' when describing the killer and the crime, we cannot help but notice that it appears to fit an awful pattern. The suspect entered the country illegally, in a lorry, in 2020. Two years later, he was granted asylum and leave to remain. The horror in Uxbridge comes after a long line of murders, terror attacks and rapes committed by those who in any sane nation would never have been here.

There's Lawangeen Abdulrahimzai, who plunged a knife into the heart of aspiring Royal Marine Thomas Roberts, outside a Subway in Bournemouth on 12 March 2022. Abdulrahimzai also came here illegally, also from Afghanistan, fleeing murder charges in Serbia. There's Ahmed Alid, the Moroccan asylum seeker in Hartlepool, who was so inspired by Hamas's exploits on 7 October 2023 that he stabbed his Iranian housemate before murdering a 70-year-old British man on the street. There's Abdul Ezedi, another Afghan, who was granted asylum on his third request, despite racking up two sexual offences here. He threw alkali on a refugee woman and her children on 31 January 2024, before going on the run and killing himself.

Ethiopian national Hadush Kebatu had been in the country just eight days when he sexually assaulted a woman and a 14-year-old girl in the Essex town of Epping in the summer. Kebatu's crimes sparked protests outside the Bell Hotel, where he and hundreds more migrants resided. It also inspired months of unrest outside the nation's migrant hotels. Following his conviction -- and farcical, accidental release last weekend -- Kebatu was finally deported this morning -- proving that the authorities can deport people after all, when they really apply themselves. If only they had got to Abdulrahimzai, or Ezedi, or Alid, a little more promptly -- all of whom similarly arrived in this country illegally, festooned in red flags.


Meanwhile, the Diversity Officer who stabbed a baby to death in Germany has been ruled "not criminally responsible" because who are the dhimmis to judge the princes of Islam?

A regional court in Germany has ruled that Enamullah O., the Afghan asylum seeker who fatally stabbed a two-year-old boy and a 41-year-old man who tried to intervene during a daycare outing in January, was not criminally responsible for his actions and will be permanently confined to a psychiatric hospital.

Presiding judge Karsten Krebs announced the decision on Thursday, stating that the 28-year-old suffered from a severe mental illness at the time of the attack, which rendered him incapable of understanding the nature or wrongfulness of his actions.

"The highly dangerous suspect no longer poses a threat to the public due to his confinement," Krebs said during sentencing.

Sounds like a great reason to allow more unvetted third-world psychopaths, rapists, and murderers in. They're so close to a cancer cure I can smell it.

They got tossed into a giant pile of dogshit and are trying to clean it up, maybe not perfect or as fast as people want but why would anyone think they are corrupt?

Both have come out and made statements that this was the real deal. I see no reason why they would lie about a couple of radical muslims planning a terror attack.

Islam is a heresy of Catholicism. It removed all of the personal agency and replaced it with submission to an irrational "God." So long as a Muslim prays five times a day, he is good to go. Paradise awaits. Sin is hardly recognized, and anything can be rationalized because their "God" is unknowable. There is nothing truly logical about any of their beliefs. That is why it is okay to lie, cheat, steal, murder, rape, and beat women. It is all fine so long as the men lift their asses in the air repeatedly.

113 Islam is a heresy of Catholicism.

Shiism seems to owe a lot to the Church of the East, yes. The hierarchy, the mysticism, the cult of martyrdom.
Sunnism owes more to Judaism though.

Step 2.) Talk to complete strangers about a crime that will certainly land you in jail ... even if you are just talking to a normie!

Actually, while typing out my sarcasm, I just realized that is probably exactly what happens. Someone reports to the police that this drunk lady is offering $10,000 to anyone that will kill her husband, and THEN the cops get somebody to wear a wire and get the dumb conspirator on tape.

Look all over this blog.

Take this passage from a comment close before this one:

"The idiocy that Islam causes was so evident that a group was pressured to stop publishing a map. An international group of patent and copyright professionals met every ten years. They would publish a map with dots for all the patents and where they were produced. USA, Europe, Japan South Korea etc had thousands each. In the Middle East only Israel had a bunch of dots. The Muslim countries had almost none."

Islam, USA, Europe, Japan, South Korea, Middle East, Israel, Middle East & and Muslim - specific people, places and and ideas are all capped.

causes, map, group, patent, copyright, professionals, years, dots, they, bunch, countries - the common nouns - are uncapped.

This is the prevailing convention in written English.

174 "That killed any belief I had in Americans standing up to tyranny using all these guns we own"

I've often wondered why the Left sends it's dumbest people to argue against the 2nd Amendment. It feels like a trap.

Maybe that's because they know it's an illusion. We believe we have insurance against tyranny so we endure oppression (like the Jan 6th round up) that we shouldn't. It's like thinking you have a spare tire. You accept more risk, but when you get that flat and pop open the trunk - it's not there. If you had known you were driving around without a spare you would have been more careful, you wouldn't have gone off-road, you would have avoided construction sites, you would have monitored tire pressure.

The light-switch metaphor doesn't help. We are (rightfully) cautious about resorting to violence because it will spin out of control. So we present a binary choice. Are we really so unimaginative that we can't come up with anything (not necessarily violent) in between Do Nothing and Kill Everyone? To borrow from an old joke: A conservative being forced marched into the Gulag, turns and yells "stop pushing me or you will rue the day!"

The ultimate insurance against tyranny is self government. But people will not do that because IT’S TOO HARD. It’s much easier to sit around and bitch, and maybe demand term limits because it is so much easier than working for better governance. (And we can never forget the idiots in Congress were idiots in state and local government - we chose to look the other way.). It’s not enough to vote for the King every four years. You must vote, and vote often. Yeah, it sucks, but it beats the alternative.

Democrat Post-Mortem: Working Class Voters Have Deserted the Party Because It Is "Weak," "Woke," and "Out of Touch"

You don't say.

How many millions did you spend to uncover these secrets?

Working-class voters see Democrats as "woke, weak and out-of-touch" and six in 10 have a negative view of the party, concluded a frank internal assessment of the hole the party finds itself in.

The nine-month, 21-state research project is the latest in a wave of post-mortems and data dives aimed at solving the Democratic Party's electoral challenges after their sweeping losses in 2024. It was funded by Democracy Matters, a nonprofit aligned with flagship Democratic super PAC American Bridge 21st Century, and backed by months of polling, dozens of focus groups and message testing.

American Bridge's project focused exclusively on working-class voters, shedding light on a once-core constituency for Democrats that's drifted away from the party over the last decade. And the initial feedback is grim: Working-class voters don't see Democrats as strong or patriotic, while Republicans represent safety and strength for them. These voters "can't name what Democrats stand for, other than being against [Donald] Trump," according to the report.

The Democratic brand "is suffering," as working-class voters see the party as "too focused on social issues and not nearly focused enough on the economic issues that impact every one, every day," the report said.

"We lost people we used to get [in 2024], so why did we lose them? Why don't we go ask them," said Mitch Landrieu, co-chair of Democracy Matters and senior adviser to then-President Joe Biden. "They said what they thought about us and it was painful to hear ... They feel forgotten, left out, and that their issues are not prioritized by the Democratic Party or the Republican Party."

He added, "They want somebody focused first, second and third, on their economic stress."

...

Democrats' must focus on affordability, the report emphasized, though its messaging suggestions clash with the strategy of progressives, differing on who to blame for economic strain. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) drew enormous crowds when they barnstormed the country this spring on their "Fighting Oligarchy" tour, attacking billionaires and "the 1 percent."


But in the report, their surveys found "a candidate focused on taking on big corporations and the wealthy" received 43 percent, while a "candidate focused on fixing the economy so those who work hard can get ahead" earned 52 percent.

"Not one person in all of our focus groups mentioned the word 'oligarchy,'" Landrieu said.


...

The report identified two areas of particular weakness for Democrats: transgender rights and immigration. Both topics dominated Republican messaging in 2024, particularly Trump's ad that included the tagline, "Kamala is for they/them, President Trump is for you."

...

But it also found one-third of independents would be "much more likely" to support Democrats if they said "transgender women should not play in women's sports," the second highest testing message in swaying these voters.

Democrats have split on how to talk about transgender issues. Some, like California Gov. Gavin Newsom, broke with his party to criticize allowing transgender athletes to participate in female college and youth sports, calling it "an issue of fairness" on his podcast last March. In contrast, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker blasted "do-nothing" Democrats in a speech last spring for "blam[ing] our losses on our defense of Black people, of trans kids, of immigrants -- instead of their own lack of guts and gumption."

Speaking of transgender issues: A woman objected to a man walking around with his dick out in the women's locker room, while she herself was naked.

Instead of ejecting the man, Gold's Gym chose to eject her.

The cops did escort the free-balling pervert out of the gym, though.

NEW: Woman says her Gold's Gym membership was terminated after a man followed her into the women's locker room.

Tish Hyman (@listen2tish) says she was escorted out of the gym by police after she demanded that men not be allowed in the women's locker room.

"Today he saw me walk into the women's room followed me in and called me a bitch. I ran out into the locker room crying and screaming," Hyman said.

"This is why we can't be quiet because people need to know what's happening. Thank you to the men who helped me today."

"Gold's Gym terminated my membership after the MAN was escorted out by police. Then had me escorted out by officers afterwards."

"It was EMBARRASSING! I left but not before making sure everyone KNEW that they were allowing MEN in the locker room !!!!!"

The incident appears to have occurred at Gold's Gym Beverly Center in Los Angeles.

According to Fox 11, the gym was recently acquired by EoS Fitness.

6 The BBC Gentlemen and Gentlemen Ladies:

The BBC manipulated Donald Trump's January 6 speech to make it appear as though he encouraged his supporters to break into the Capitol, according to a damning internal report.

***

Prescott explained how the BBC — often described as the world's 'most trusted' broadcaster — 'completely misled' viewers during an episode of the program Panorama which aired a week before the election by showing the president telling supporters he was going to walk to the Capitol with them 'fight like hell.'

In reality, Trump said he would walk with them 'to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.'

The report noted that the program made Trump 'say' things [he] never actually said' by editing together footage from the start of his speech with something he said nearly an hour later.

The BBC's edited footage also featured crowd noise that made the MAGA faithful appear more menacing.

A similar piece pointed out the real problem the Dem party has today, they have *no* effective leadership at all. And in a vacuum like that, the DSA (socialists) and the Islamic groups are finding it very easy to take over the Dem Party, because they are focused, organized, and have serious money behind them. (For the Islamists, it's mainly Iran and Qatar) The ordinary old time sclerotic dems don't have a chance against them, and so Mamdani, AOC, and Jasmine Crockett are well on their way to being the new leaders of the Dem Party.

Understood. But I believe if you had a chance to consider there are sovereigns who work hand and glove with the cartels to deliberately push drugs into our country with one objective- undermine and weaken the country.

That sounds like war to me and I’m puzzled why we haven’t treated it as such for a long time. We are running around the world killing the alphabet soup of terrorists to prevent attacks. Meanwhile these people are killing thousands every month. The worst part is they know it’s a weakness and it’s deliberate.

The other part of is the misconception these are largely addicts (not that we should have empathy for them btw because I do), they are not. We have all been dumb kids or done something stupid. Go look at the demo for something like fentanyl. It’s astounding how many youth are in that number or people who are not addicts.

Now I’m a hammer and perhaps a bit jaded. But these people have been declared DTO’s and are now on the battlefield, so AMF.

There was another legal note moment on The View, this time with Whoopi. Whoopi was ranting about Trump pardoning that Binance guy, and suggested he was using an autopen. A little later, she was handed a note to read, explaining that it is not known if Trump used an autopen.

She got pissed off and tore up the note on air.

162 I know it's a few posts back, but it's hard to understate how key GA was to the 2020 steal.
#1 was the "social proof" that Trump was hated via a deep red state--in the south!--voted against him.
Because America sees GA as a deep red southern state and has no clue how blue Atlanta is.
Or how corrupt.
But not just the Dems, but also the Rs. Who are every bit the drawling, slimy image of ridicule of every portrayal of the deep south corruption. No different than from when they were Dems, just 'cause they have an R after their name now.
And yes, I do think they blew that kid up to make sure everyone stuck to the script.

Oh, and I believe the reason Kemp is not running for the Senate is b/c he's miffed that Trump didn't appoint his wife to a top fed job--he needs her in to force Trump to co-sign on concealing his corruption to protect the administration.

Part of this ongoing shift in the parties' voter composition is that Republicans now have a larger proportion of low-propensity voters, the opposite of what had obtained for decades, which presents challenges in every election in which Donald Trump isn't on the ballot (and sometimes even when he is, in terms of getting those low-propensity voters to complete the rest of the ballot).

That was Warren Buffet's schtick too. Only somehow worse: his counter when people suggested he write a check to the treasury was that he's leaving his wealth to the Gates foundation.

Why is that Warren? Because you think it will be better spent by Bill Gates? You're probably right, so your argument is really that the peasants who can't escape taxation should be forced to fund the government.

255 I've done a shorter version of this post, but I feel like fentanyl changed the game on drugs/war on drugs. Before it was people making bad choices and/or overdosing knowing that they were going right up against the line.

But fentanyl changed that--I feel like at some point we're going to realize that a significant portion of the seemingly "ok-ish" people who "overdosed" in the last 5-7 years didn't "overdose" in the traditional sense of the word. They overdosed because the weed or coke or heroin that they had done *literally* hundreds of times before...turned out to be laced with fentanyl this time. I lost 1 friend and 2 acquaintances to "overdoses". None of the 3 were pillars of the community, but none were homeless or drifters or "bums" either. They all got up in the morning and went to a job of some kind. I'm convinced all 3 got ahold of something that was *laced*, and what had been intended as "just another Friday night" turned out to be their last Friday, ever.

AOC has entirely forgotten the scent of a nasty old rubber bar mat at the end of a shift, and she'd sooner die than walk behind a bar and serve a normie a drink ever again.

In Calif, every registered voter is sent a Ballot via mail...

In order to register to vote? all you need is a postcard sized form with your name, address, supposed political affiliation, and a check box saying you are a citizen. No proof required.

You can also check a box when you get a State ID or Drivers license, which will register you to vote.

Now, Calif is supposed to check your signature on the OUTSIDE of your ballot envelope. This is supposedly done by a person viewing your signature on file, against the sig on your envelope. They 'reject' 1-2% supposedly. If your ballot is rejected, they send you a notice that you need to 'cure' your signature... and you can send in a form to do so.

I know for a FACT this is not happening. I'm left handed... and had to sign a ballot RIGHT HANDED a few years ago... it was not rejected.

Yes, fentanyl lacing should be considered poisoning. And I think it is now, for all intents and purposes. The Chicoms are doing this on purpose.

Fentanyl's potency is an order of magnitude at least greater than other opiates. Therapeutic doses are in the hundreds of micrograms, compared to milligrams and maybe up in the 10 mg range for the others.

Some college kid or other "recreational" user, who is "opiate naive", meaning no tolerance built up takes something laced with fentanyl and boom, he's dead Jim. He wasn't a junkie getting into the coffin corner of tolerance (how much it takes to get you high vs the lethal levels), he was poisoned.

FDA Drug Chief Resigns Amid Probe Into Alleged Misconduct

tRuSt ThE eXpErTs


The head of the Food and Drug Administration's drug division abruptly resigned Sunday following an internal review into "serious concerns about his personal conduct," according to a government spokesperson.

According to The Associated Press, Dr. George Tidmarsh, who took over the position in July, was placed on leave Friday after the Department of Health and Human Services' Office of General Counsel was alerted to the allegations. He then resigned Sunday morning, HHS press secretary Emily Hilliard said in an email.

...

The resignation coincided with the filing of a lawsuit by Aurinia Pharmaceuticals, which accuses Tidmarsh of making "false and defamatory statements" and using his FDA post to pursue a "longstanding personal vendetta" against Kevin Tang, the company's board chair.

According to the complaint, Tang previously served on the boards of several drug companies where Tidmarsh had been an executive -- including La Jolla Pharmaceutical -- and was involved in his removal from leadership roles.

I didn't cover this last week -- a new study shows that 91% of all people who got the Moderna non-vaccine experienced cardiovascular side-effects.

From the moment the COVID vaccines were released, the public was gaslit about their safety and efficacy. Many of the claims were pure bovine excrement, such as the claim that recipients of the vaccine couldn't contract or transmit the virus. The former was not evident in the original studies (and turned out to be the opposite of the truth), and the latter claim was never even tested before release.

And that's just efficacy. Safety is even more important, and the studies were so small and poorly designed that only the most gross safety signals could possibly have been picked up. It turns out that all the claims about how benign the vaccines are are pure BS, and all the people making those claims had every reason to know that they were deceiving people.

...

Well, another study examining the effect of the Moderna mRNA COVID vaccine has come out, and it shows that over 90% of people who get the Moderna vaccine experience cardiovascular side effects.

The effects are usually subtle, but that doesn't mean they are benign. People who get the vaccine experience a measurable and significant decline in arterial flexibility--a hardening of the arteries--that could have significant impacts on their health long-term.

Random insults to the body are usually not good. If you get hit with a big dose of radiation, you'll see some changes in your DNA, and the odds are those changes will be bad for your health. The chances of you gaining superpowers from the exposure are rather low.

In related news, HHS head RFKJr. is fast-tracking the approval of "biosimilar" drugs, which are drugs made from the patient's own cells.

Federal regulators are trying to make it easier to develop cheaper alternatives to powerful drugs that many Americans depend on to treat autoimmune diseases or cancers.

The Food and Drug Administration said Wednesday it has released guidance to simplify studies for biologic drugs and cut unnecessary testing.

Biologic drugs are made from living cells instead of by mixing chemicals. They have led to major advances in treating immune system disorders, eye diseases and some cancers since the late 1990s, but they also are very costly.

29 I will never trust another word published by the CDC.

They studied the effects of the MRNA vaccines over very short time frames, and then declared the vaccines HARMLESS.

There were no long terms studies, nor were there any studies on people with compromised immune system or poor health related to non-Covid factors.

They ran none of those experiments, and then essentially announced the results of those experiments - no harms!

No real scientist would publish the results of an experiment before they performed the experiment, yet that is exactly what the CDC and FDA "scientists" did.

the poke actually behaved as a Superspreader vector, since the times it actually worked without, you know...sending the jabbee into cardiac arrest...it suppressed covid symptoms. So the jabbee went out into the world spreading the virus, not even knowing s/he was a carrier.

The FDA has been compromised for a while. I worked at a company that submitted a drug for approval, around 2010, and the biased treatment by FDA officials, along with the weird behavior of the outside board, were a revelation to me.

Also, La Jolla Pharmaceuticals was kind of a questionable company. They attracted investors, but their commitment to actually developing new drugs was in doubt.

I was ready to walk as well. It helped that I was already on Social Security and that my retirement annuity would come to me whether I resigned or was fired; so I had a safety net. Still, I was determined not to do it, especially after the admin. threatened us with job loss.

Fortunately they "accepted" my religious exemption. But I was ready to let them fire me, file for unemployment (if I could get it -- some people couldn't at that point), maybe look into suing over it (very unlikely, I realized even then), and go my merry way.

It finished my respect for a university supposedly in the forefront of medical and scientific research. I couldn't wait to retire.

96 The CDC f*cked up big time on Covid, but it was at least a "novel" virus, and no scientific agency is perfect.

However, their immigration policy was even more shameful.

One of my siblings is an "expert" on infectious diseases in refugee and immigrant populations.

They are also one of the lead authors on this CDC publication.

Disease Surveillance Among U.S.-Bound Immigrants and Refugees — Electronic Disease Notification System, United States, 2014–2019

https://tinyurl.com/233zm5cj

Basically, the CDC said the best "infectious disease science" was to forbid immigration of people with Class A infectious diseases, and only allow people with Class B infectious diseases subject to treatment and monitoring.

During the four years of the Biden administration open borders policy, the CDC refused to follow their own scientific guidance!

Another way to determine a fake scientist - when the good scientific protocols are in conflict with far Left Democrat party preferences, throw out the good science and instead support the party as a good little apparatchik.

Study Finds Birth Control Contraceptives Linked to Higher Breast Cancer Risk
Posted by: SMOD at November 03, 2025 03:32 PM (RHGPo)

Follow the money. This has been known since about 1979, but the money in contraceptives negates anyone complaining about the cancer. It kills you. Dead. It isn't safe. Even a little bit. And anyone who said different should be arrested for murder.

172 Just to clarify, I think Ace conflated a few terms in the last item.

>> which are drugs made from the patient's own cells.

biologics are any drug made from a living organism, not necessarily the patient. So even vaccines are biologics. Also proteins and other compounds made by some living cell.

The dispute is that it is very hard to exactly reproduce a companies methods and trade secrets in manufacturing them, so they had been protected - there is no way to certify that a competitor drug is "exactly the same." Drug companies love biologics for that reason.

This ruling allows competitors to claim they are "biosimliar" if they behave the same way as the tested compound.

I don't know about that being his brand; he's praised some movies recently. I watched S1 and liked it quite a bit. S2 is when the rot really kicked in, and I barely made it through it - to the point that I didn't even bother with S3. From the show clips CD shows, it's clear that they did indeed double or quadruple down on the woke. Everybody is diverse, girl bosses are the best at absolutely everything, and gay is obligatory.

Yes and no. He'll praise what's praiseworthy (in his opinion), but he also looks at the "popular" IPs and gives his two cents on those as well. The Witcher falls into the same category as many other IPs. The first season is passable, maybe even good (relatively speaking) (The Mandalorian was similar). Then the showrunners go full-woke in Season 2 and never look back.

I have had kidney cancer 3 times - first two times the tumors were each 2 cm, removed by cryosurgery. This was in 2011 and 2012. Docs insisted it was gone and I was clear.I was diagnosed again with kidney cancer in 2021, after we had gotten the clot shot for daughter's autoimmune protection - docs insisted. This tumor was 5 cm and growing rapidly - it was six months from diagnosis to surgery (including another clot shot in order to HAVE the surgery) and it had grown another cm. I absolutely believe the shot have everything to do with the cancer coming back. If your dad had any propensity for kidney cancer, that shot jump started it into overdrive.

Scar tissue in the heart is a long term threat. It does not go away, but kills people decades later as their heart muscle loses the plasticity, especially the valves.

So a small infection in your 20s ("that quickly goes away") can kill you in your 50s, or at least require valve replacement.

I had to take a covid test weekly and report the results to my employer (HIPPA violation, anyone?). I had to wear a mask in the office, once we were allowed to go back to the office. I was denied any chance of promotion during that time. I was lectured by my boss's boss's boss that I was putting everyone including myself at risk of certain death, and that my Catholic objection was nonsense because of course he was Catholic and had never heard the Pope tell him it was wrong.

I informed that idiot that I was not responsible for his poor catechesis, and perhaps he should learn a thing or two before using his GOVERNMENT position to lecture me about my faith.

And then the old folks' home demanded Dad get the shot, which activated his prostate cancer which invaded his bladder and then they let him bleed to death because he was just too darned old to receive medical care. He couldn't remember who the president was, so they assumed he was just senile. Of course, profuse bleeding will lead to that, but no, he was just too old to treat.

During the Covid psy op, I was under pressure to get vaccinated. The price for not getting vaccinated was getting nasal-swab tested at a nearby clinic every Monday, so I did that. The compliance rate i this pharma industry company was about 95%.

At that time, I attended a large reunion lunch for people who had worked at a disbanded pharma company. Dozens of chemists and biologists. The subject came up in convesation, and the covid vaccination compliance rate was high among
them. When I said I hadn't been and wasn't going to, they kind of stared at me. Being in the industry didn't make people smarter about it.

The flu vaccine is pretty benign, of course it also doesn't DO much.

That's why it was around for 80 years or so before it started to get popular.

And amusingly, China used the same strategy for COVID. They killed a COVID viron and gave it to people as a shot. It didn't cause much damage because they weren't overloading their people with spike proteins but it also didn't do much because COVID, like the flu, mutates too quickly for a traditional vaccine to do much

300 Think about all the rights Democrats stole from you during COVID. They went complete authoritarian. They loved you in your home. Punished you of you spoke out against them. Isolated you from family members. Forced people to take the vaccine or be fired and cut from daily activities. Lied to you about the vaccine so the could go out and do whatever they wanted to do. Killed people with their experiments and fraud. Separated you from hospitalized family members. There isn’t even enough space here to go through that list.

But yeah, Democrats are totally a good choice to be in power? They are still indicating they’re going even further if they ever get in power again.

Do people even listen to what the are saying and understand the ramifications? I doubt it. They play politics like it’s a team sport and care for nothing that’s factual or material.

The flue vax never worked. There is no data showing it works.

The CDC claims "effectiveness" when they manage to pick the strain that is circulating. (If it was effective, would that strain circulate?)

But the CDC knows it is useless. It just doesn't work and possibly causes more infection among those who receive it.

I expect RFK will get around to killing that whole program.

I have a SiL who has diabetes, eats like a teenager with absent parents, and doesn't manage her blood sugar at all. She claims she has "long covid." I believe she feels the effects of being an obese middle aged woman with diabetes who eats a terrible diet.

I understand there are some people who were injured by the vaccine. I understand there are some people who have long standing injuries from the vaccine. I also believe the number of people who believe their health issues are due to the vaccine dwarfs the number of people who really are injured.

Respectfully, Tucker spent his entire career fighting for and listening to the other side up until COVID. He lived amongst them his entire career. Was their errand boy for most as he has admitted.
People only listen to clips from interviews which are propaganda. I get it. People don’t have time to listen to entire interviews. But reacting to out of context clips

People are tired of all foreign influence in America.

The legacy of Ben Shapiro. I'll never forget the lesson he taught me. He was on a show debating a trans psycho. He calmly dissected the creatures argument with logic and reason, refusing to pretend it was a woman. Checkmate in two moves.

But the creature grabbed him by the back of the neck and threatened to send Shapiro to the Emergency Room. Shapiro trembled and all his fancy words turned to ash. It was a precursor to what would happen to Charlie Kirk.

I don’t know anything about Flounder. What I do know is this:

There are some antisemites on the internet who hate Ben Shapiro, because he is Jewish.

Some of these antisemites also noted that he has a sister named Abigail.

Abigail is a very pretty and demure woman. Abigail also happens to have an absolutely fantastic rack.

So fine was said rack, that even the avowed antisemites were commenting on how fantastic that rack was.

They even made a brief meme about it, posting her picture with the text “Khazar Milkers!”

And generally with some words to the effect of they’d make an exception for her.

So… my jest was that although me and antisemites don’t tend to have much in common, we were of one mind when it came to her…assets.

Nothing more than that. Just a throwaway jest.

Claim: Soros "Charities" Illegally Financed Mamdani's Campaign

This charge is made by the CPA who discovered Big Tish James' mortgage fraud.


Zohran Mamdani's campaign is facing explosive allegations that it benefited from tens of millions of dollars in donations funneled from George Soros-linked charities as part of an elaborate scheme that may have violated federal tax laws.

The 34-year-old State Assemblyman's team has always claimed that he rose from obscurity to become New York City's mayoral front-runner thanks to an organic, grassroots movement involving many small donations and hundreds of young people with backpacks canvassing on his behalf.

But the Daily Mail can reveal that that narrative is now being called into question according to a report from a watchdog website.

The findings, from conservative investigative site White Collar Fraud, alleged that a network of tax-exempt organizations connected to billionaire financier Soros shrewdly coordinated political and ground operations to support Mamdani in a scheme that involved laundering more than $40million in charitable donations through nonprofits and redirecting them into political activity.

Soros's group disputes the report's findings of improprieties, saying it is 'riddled with inaccuracies, false assumptions and misinformation'.

'The math isn't the only thing that doesn't add up,' a spokesman for the Open Society Foundation -- that was founded by Soros and is now headed by his 40-year-old son Alex, told the Daily Mail.

'The grants it cited -- many of which we were earmarked for specific projects and causes elsewhere around the country as we have disclosed -- were made years before the mayoral race even began.'

But White Collar Fraud investigator Sam Antar told the Daily Mail Soros-affiliated entities may have violated federal tax laws. Antar has filed 11 whistleblower complaints with the Internal Revenue Service as a result of his investigation.


Antar, who is a convicted felon and former CPA, now assists the government in white-collar fraud investigations and has lectured on such crimes on college campuses and at the IRS.

He called what he uncovered 'the manufacturing process of a generational political machine that has weaponized the income tax code'.

And he described Mamdani as 'a product of that machine.'

Note that a charity may advocate for policies, but cannot spend money to help or defeat candidates.

Antar alleges that Soros' "charities" did exactly that.

Antar said he uncovered how Soros's tax-exempt organizations helped fund activities that 'mimicked what looked like a grassroots campaign', including large-scale door-knocking efforts.

'The problem is they weren't campaigning for a general cause like women's rights,' he said. 'They were campaigning for a specific candidate. And that's the rub.'

Under US tax law, a 501(c)(3) may fund a 501(c)(4) for nonpartisan purposes such as issue advocacy or civic engagement.

But that money is not supposed to be used to directly support or oppose a candidate, a line that can be difficult to prove without internal communications or evidence showing intent.

White Collar Fraud's investigation argues that the scope of Soros's alleged network extends far beyond Mamdani's campaign, potentially spanning hundreds of races nationwide.

The communist Hamas jihadist isn't the shoo-in he once looked like. It's not too much comfort, but the guy who crammed covid patients into nursing homes so that his big-hospital donors wouldn't be saddled with them is catching up.

In a new schmoll from Atlas Schmolling, the communist jihadist who just got here eight years ago and never had a real job is only four points ahead of the grandma-murdering psychopath.

Independent mayoral hopeful Andrew Cuomo would beat Democratic front-runner Zohran Mamdan in a head-to-head race, a bombshell new poll found -- as Cuomo was in striking distance a day before the general election.

The new AtlasIntel survey, which dropped Monday afternoon, has Mamdani with 43.9% of support with Cuomo trailing in second with 39.4%.

Update: NGOs are teaching illegal aliens how to illegally vote.

So? Am I missing something?

If I gave a charity money for, say, buying canned goods, it doesn't matter if I gave that money decades ago. What matters is that I gave money for a specific purpose, and they funneled it into something else instead. Even setting aside the vagaries of campaign finance, that's fraud.

Do you really think that he, or Omar, or a dozen others like them in public life really live under the proscriptions of Islam? It's just civil rights identity voodoo now indistinguishable from race that they use against you. Mamdani and Omar are just Third World subversives fueled by resentment and shame (at their native shitholes) who see their purpose as taking resources from legacy Americans to distribute to the Third World horde (in Omar's case, both in the U.S. and back home - and make no mistake Somalia is her home).

It's just civil rights identity voodoo now indistinguishable from race that they use against you. Mamdani and Omar are just Third World subversives fueled by resentment and shame (at their native shitholes) who see their purpose as taking resources from legacy Americans to distribute to the Third World horde (in Omar's case, both in the U.S. and back home - and make no mistake Somalia is her home).

It's been clear for a long time that *something* like this has been going.

When you look at Soros himself and his organizations, it hasn't made sense for a long time. He's rich, but he's not *that* rich. His "NGOs" have a lot - by the numbers, it is almost certainly a serious majority - of non-Soros money sloshing through them. He's a brokerage house far more than he is a bona fide, in-the-money investor.

The question for me, for years now, has been "where is the money actually coming from" because it sure as hell wasn't Soros. He didn't have enough of it. The slash-and-burn job at USAID gave part of the answer. *Now* my question is, "how many USAIDs are there?" Probably a lot. None as big as USAID, but all directing money into the NGO sluices run by the likes of Soros.

It's almost like mayoral elections are only once every 4 years, and you can easily start positioning a candidate to look like a "grassroots" guy, by building up his candidacy in that time period.

They went after Dinesh D'Souza for donating $20k donation, and put him on house arrest at a halfway house for over half a year and fined him $30k. So if the law is the law, Alex Soros should be fined $60 million and spend around 16,000 months in a halfway house, just to keep it in line with Dinesh's NY prosecution.

126 It would be interesting to see if that organization called "Indivisible" was involved in any fashion in the Mamdani campaign. If the name sounds familiar it's because it was one of the sponsors of the "No Kings" nonsense. But, if you dig a little you will discover that they are a subcontracted arm of the US State Department.

They were used internationally to invoke color revolutions and received funding through various Soros related "charities." It was one of the orgs used by the State Department to influence foreign elections, and seeing them front and center in the US protests suggests that they are no operating more domestically. I'd guess that they recently took on a bunch of new employees made up of disgruntled former US State Dept. employees who managed the USAID program.

I too would prefer my odds of getting stabbed by a homeless person not rise from 95% to 100% when I have to take the subway to work everyday.

Joking aside though, even if I decided to up and leave, like every tough guy conservative asshole says we should do in order to surrender our great cities, I still have friends and family in the city, and would prefer not having to return to Bernie Goetz someone if anything were to happen to a few of them.

NY could easily be amazing again. Hell just this week the area of canal Street overrun by West African trash was clear and calm, with just that tiny bit of policing. So for so many to abandon it to try and seem blase about things, shows how conservatives will never win if we just run.

But him sucking around so long just prices my thought that he's a grifter. If NY gets even worse, he won't deserve all of the blame, but certainly a lot of it.

But I'm guessing he's banorolled and will get more work from the Bullwark type who want to get Democrats elected without actually looking like they're getting their hands dirty.

Kid will turn 3 and she'll start grilling him on whether he's every thought about being a girl or wearing a dress or playing with dolls or liking the color pink and won't relent until he says yes to stop her hectoring and to gain mommy's approval. Then she'll start sending him to pre-K in a dress and insist everyone call him Trixie. She'll go on talk shows and get adulation about how brave and courageous and supportive she is.

Also, they neither foresee nor desire the collapse of the United States. The US is central to the plan. We are to be the regional hegemon over North America and surrounding seaways, with influence extending south, petering out in the same area (likely southern or central Central America) where Brazil's hegemonic influence peters out. That is one of the expected low-grade conflict zones, replicated at other hegemonic interfaces around the other regions.

But the plan needs those regional hegemons. Just no superpowers, and with professional management of hegemonic coordination and trade settlement.

286 @282 the question I would like answered is why any African Americans , most specifically men, would vote for an AWFL. Even if she has D after her name she's still ick

287 Anarcho-terrorism leads to tribal and gang wars, where eventually the strongest strong man wins and becomes dictator (like Somalia).

No one will ever win in Somalia. No one ever won in Ayn Rand's dystopias either. All parties become tied to the process, and are hostages to the results of the events they commit to forestall their own destruction. It keeps going until everyone is exhausted, dead, or someone decides to step outside the frame.

290 >>Which group will do away with him first when he deviates from their orthodoxy?

I doubt he will. I also doubt he will do much other than cause chaos.

NYC already has DAs who won't try many criminals and judges who won't convict them. Now give them a mayor who wants to defund the police and empty prisons and it will go a long way toward destroying the place.

The guy is pretty much running as a marxist and talking about seizing the means of production and building government grocery stores and buying up housing stock to basically give away for free. It's gonna be a shit show.

291 122 106 I'm hoping for a Mamdami win because it would mean there would be decent chance the Dem nutcases would nominate an AOC-Mamdami ticket in 2028

No natural-born citizen rqmt. for VP, right? Dumb bunny-sugar-tits would be the Dem's new prop-up POTUS, with the male commie running the show behind the scenes.

292 I am so sick of Tucker. Good on Ben for exposing Nick Fuentes and Tucker Carlson.

No to the groypers.
No to cowards like Tucker Carlson, who normalize their trash.
No to those who champion them.
No to demoralization.
No to bigotry and anti-meritocratic horseshit.

They don't. The Dem machines vote for them if they need votes.

296 252 I am seeing reports from axios that the dems are going to cave on the shut down after the election tomorrow. Not sure if it is true but so far no dem has come out and claimed that's a B$ article.
Posted by: Mister Scott (Formerly GWS) at November 03, 2025 03:03 PM (0N4FZ)

I always assumed one side or the other would cave as soon as the elections were over, with perhaps a superficial concession from the other side to save face.
Posted by: Bitcoin Fixes Everything at November 03, 2025 03:05 PM (V6W16)

That's what the GOPe & DemEs would do. The new Dems are zealots and have different ideas.

297 Meta-stable professional management of large regions, with shots called by the globalist masters.

It's stupid, but that's more or less the goal.

So the cyberpunk future of Blade Runner, Shadowrun (minus magic), and Snow Crash? That makes sense...
