The Morning Report — 8/29/25

Good morning kids.

So, as my good friend and cohort CBD noted yesterday in his morning rant in his defense of the Second Amendment in the wake of the horrific slaughter perpetrated against Catholic schoolchildren. As the usual suspects continue to desecrate the memory of the victims by using it as an opportunity to try and yet again disarm the law-abiding populace.

What about the deeply psychotic body-dysmorphia-suffering transsexual, deep into a poorly-understood regimen of incredibly powerful drugs that are busily tweaking his brain? Otherwise known as gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) (or sometimes hormone replacement therapy (HRT)). Wow…that’s a mouthful! And a big lie. Of course it isn’t “affirming” anything; it is destroying the the very way that men and women think and feel and act, and in the process replacing those things with a miasma of competing impulses that the human brain and body is incapable of handling.

While even the disturbed ghoul himself has admitted, he was essentially brainwashed into becoming a lab (democ-) rat:

The alleged shooter, Robert Westman, who identified as a female and went by the name Robin Westman, also expressed in his notes that he wished he had never “brain-washed” himself. The Post translated a cryptic section of the manifesto as saying, “I only keep [the long hair] because it is pretty much my last shred of being trans. I am tired of being trans, I wish I never brain-washed myself.”

So, okay, let's take him at his word and let's reasonably assume that per CBD the toxic brew of chemicals he was injected with made him go on a shooting spree. Yet what explains his hatred of Catholics, Jews and Donald Trump. Surely hormones didn't put those thoughts into his head?

Surely it wasn't a toxic brew of hormones that made Luigi Mangione gun down the CEO of United Healthcare? Even so, the former remains a legendary folk hero of Democrat Leftists along with this illegal alien, violent gangbanger criminal Kilmar Abrego Garcia who, barring yet another hack-in-black's interference might be on a flight bound for Uganda or even Rwanda!

And how to explain. . .

Just a short walk from where an Egyptian national firebombed a Jewish group, a woman held a bullhorn to her mouth and called the group’s leader "a genocidal c*nt" to her face.

The Koran and Leftism sure is one hell of a toxic mix of hormones, eh?

I was also going to cite legendary black Yoot Trayvon Martin, but mass quantities of grape soda and cough syrup tend to make repeatedly bashing a stranger's head onto a curb easy to understand. Of course the fact that Martin was weaned on the toxic poison of race grievance and victimhood that made him into the Purple People Beater he mutated into, like so many other black males of his and subsequent generations since LBJ re-enslaved them into the Democrat Party.

And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

Have a great Labor Day Weekend!

Is that the guy that that is saying that he’s going to be unsafe if he goes back to his home country? Isn’t he unsafe to all of us if he stays?”

31 Morning again, News Folken,

The story about the shopping carts and littering strikes a major chord with me every day. I try hard to return my carts to their corrals. I don't think I've ever seen a black man or woman doing that. Aldi has the quarter deposit routine, so you have to return the cart to get your coin back, and so far it seems to work. But the Save-a-Lot that was ten minutes' walk from me tried it briefly. The customers still stole the carts and trundle their stuff home. Hey, when you're on EBT/welfare/Section 8, the loss of a quarter is nothing. Save-a-Lot gave it up. Eventually, as Coyner points out, they closed the store.

As for littering, *somebody* cleaned up the major trash dump outside the back gate here . . . but the stuff is starting to collect again.

County fairs is our MT valley are what a county fair was meant to be. The big rodeo took place last evening.

They've been remarkably stable since President Trump was sworn in: $2.85/gal for several months now, which is practically unheard of.

What's going on to keep the price so steady?
Posted by: "Perfessor" Squirrel at August 29, 2025 07:46 AM (7fElN)

Around my parts, gas will be near $3. Slowly it will drop to the $2.40 range and then, overnight, go back to $3.

But it whets the appetite for the entree! J6!!

No state funeral in the Rotunda for Nancy, after it's revealed that she was the maestro of J6.
She controlled the op, including by directing her own little army in the Capitol police. She had the balls to bring in her daughter to film it, for posterity.

I do admire the Left for this. In business and in government, they ensure loyalty by shamelessly protecting every good Party man, no matter how ridiculous it may be.

They look at someone who wrecks a company and say "give her a job and a six figure salary at your company, now" and that company's executives click their heels and salute.

Or a disgraced FBI man gets fired, and they squash the investigation, and the donors pack his GoFundMe, and get him a ludicrous book deal, and so on.

There's never any downside as long as you play for their team, and they act like it.

202 It makes common sense that messing with hormones disturbs a person's mental health. Just want to point out that birth control pills work by disrupting and unbalancing hormones, and young girls are automatically put on them in their early teens as standard medical care. After that, many girls then need anti-anxiety or anti-depression meds as well.

I asked a young lady who was wracked with anxiety and taking psychiatric medications what prompted the problem. She said it was her grandfather's death, but her grandfather's passing was just about the time she would have been prescribed birth control pills. (Note: I do not know her what sort of medical interventions she was undergoing at that time; it's just that my observations matched that possibility.)

Unfortunately, her mental health is still rather fragile. Of course, she works as a counselor.

That’s what she claimed Trayvon called Z. Not only was it not helpful for the prosecution, it was probably a lie. Does Z look like a cracker to you? Nobody would look at that guy and think he’s white.

All of her testimony was a lie. I assume some of it was told to her by the real girlfriend. I have no idea why they told the “cracker” line.

He canceled FJB's gift to her. From Daily Mail

President Donald Trump revoked Secret Service protection for former Vice President Kamala Harris’ on Thursday as she prepares for a nationwide book tour.

Harris received six months of protection from the Secret Service after leaving office by federal law.

However, before leaving office then-President Joe Biden extended her protection by an additional year in an undisclosed directive not revealed until now, according to a CNN report.

Trump canceled the protection in a Thursday letter entitled ‘Memorandum for the Secretary of Homeland Security.’

'You are hereby authorized to discontinue any security-related procedures previously authorized by Executive Memorandum, beyond those required by law, for the following individual, effective September 1, 2025: Former Vice President Kamala D. Harris,' Trump's letter reads.

I think that's a bit unusual. The former presidents get protection for life, IIRC. But the number of agents assigned might diminish over time. I thought the VP got protection too... for some period of time.

Anyhow, it occurs to me that a lot of undeserving people get Secret Service protection (Fauci had it for a period of time, then went to taxpayer provided private, then he had to provide his own.) Trump might want to pare that whole "service" down a bit and make the lawmakers pay for their own security rather than make me do it.

280 “ “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. Whoever hates me hates my Father as well. If I had not done among them the works no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. As it is, they have seen, and yet they have hated both me and my Father. But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated me without reason.’

At my first visit to an OB-GYN at 22 years of age, the doctor had a conniption that I wasn't already on BC pills. When I questioned why I would need them since I was not sexually active, he claimed they are needed to "make me feel better." The pills are sold as a health tonic.

But, that moved the pick-up slots out to the lot.

355 313 The media is reporting the trans shooter bought his guns legally. That means, he checked, No, on his ATF 4473 purchase form for "mentally deficient". Because Gender Dismorphia is no longer a mental defect?

Actually, he probably did not buy them legally. ATF 4473 requires someone to certify that they are not using illegal drugs. Given murderer 'worked' for a cannabis distributor, I would imagine that he was a user as well. As of now, federal firearm laws have no exception whatsoever for medical marijuana regardless of whether the state allows it. Still illegal under federal law.

362 'Ozymandias' is the Greek name for Ramesses II, greatest of ancient Egypt's Pharaohs, and thought to be the Pharoah of The Exodus.

I was thinking about this the other day - a number of leftist historians have taken to arguing that Exodus never happened and Judaism just evolved in the Levant and picked Egypt as their origin because it was the super power of the day.

They do this because they want to disagree with the Bible/Torah but take this seriously for a moment. If this is true not only have the Jews been in Israel for more then 4K years, they've been there since before the dawn of history. But remember they are "colonizers" in Israel.

According to Stats Canada, Canada imported in a huge number of gimmedats in the last several decades--23.0 percent are foreign born. Most immigrants currently are from Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. By the time you consider second generation immigrants, those totals are higher.

Canadian politicians fired their own people and brought in replacements in order to feather their nest and keep power. Same shit as in the US.

Too many people still have Gell-Mann amnesia regarding the media, academic experts, and even Conservative TM media.

All news must be considered in light that a) it is a polluted source that has a vague correlation to what is actually true, b) most experts and media types including Conservative Media TM have ideological blinkers that make any analysis from these sources subject to bias (if only to the status quo such as Conservative Media often has (muh free tradez).

Essentially people would be better off to figure all 'news' stories and analysis are polluted sources and that the same courtroom tactics used in trials should be used by readers. Consider oneself a cross examiner of sources rather than a passive consumer.

The MN Ghoul (has a nice ring) was schizo before hormones. Praising Hitler in junior high. Went to at least 3 high schools. One assumes kicked out due to behavior. His parents knew. His therapists probably knew, altho he had rational thoughts to keep his trans regret and hatred/murder thoughts from them as reportable; from his little weird journal. I wish the ghoul had acted on the years of suicidal thoughts.

Which brings us back to his mommy, in Naples, FL, who is not talking to police and lawyered up. I suspect there is a money trail from her to the ghoul. He bought his guns and ammo with this vs hair products. She's hiding something, eh? Daddy does seem to be cooperating.

Mommy up and left Daddy with 5 kids in MN five years ago, so she sounds a bit off herself. Something ain't right with her, either.

426 HRT is a legitimate treatment for people whose bodies, due to some manner of disease process or genetic issue, have stopped producing hormones that they would otherwise be producing.

GAHT is a process of administering hormones that the person's body NEVER produced in the first place and would never be expected to.
