NPR – 2020 CENSUS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN ACCURATE: Posting this without comment.
STANDING ON A PILE OF BODIES: In true Alinsky fashion Richmond (VA) school superintendent uses Buffalo shooting as an excuse to try to smuggle CRT into the schools.
LOCKDOWNS, THE CURE FOR ALL POLITICAL ILLS: Energy Minister of Luxembourg calls for EU lockdowns to reduce dependence on Russian oil. I know I keep going on about the topic, but there really is a war on your freedom of movement.
JASON MIYARES, RISING STAR: Glibs has been all over the Biden Ministry of Truth DHS Disinformation Governance Board, but here is an article focusing on one of the architects of the takedown, fresh-faced Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares, son of a Cuban immigrant. This lad is going places, folks.
YOU THINK YOU HAD A BAD WEEK? Here is a link to a video of an hyena biting a buffalo in the nutsack.
“In true Alinsky fashion Richmond (VA) school superintendent uses Buffalo shooting as an excuse to try to smuggle CRT into the schools.”
Which will lead to more shootings. Which is what they want.
Fuck Luxembourg.
The Energy Minister of Luxembourg is invited to lock him or herself down. Permanently.
Luxembourg is not done with covid restrictions either.
Travelers who are not fully vaccinated are not allowed to enter Luxembourg.
Maybe I should have gone to Luxenbourg when I thought about it five years ago.
That’s fine. I can spend my money elsewhere.
Notice which states are overcounted?
Utah?
All the spirit children?
Too many wives.
Utah has a notoriously large population of welfare scammers.
Very strange. Usually they claim that lefty states are undercounted and use statistical mumbo-jumbo to arrive at a higher figure in order to grab more FedBucks.
Yeah, if you go to the second .xsl file here, it has the annual estimates through 2018. Look at which states suddenly started growing a lot faster or slower than the trends to get to the 2020 “official” figures, and you’ll see it’s almost all designed to help TEAM BLUE in apportionment.
And yet the Beltway Class insists it’s Trump who interfered with the Census.
And Delaware and Utah aren’t particularly off the trend they had from 2010-2018.
Likewise, the estimates had Illinois losing 150K people from 2013-2018, only to gain half of that back in the following two years.
Which is horseshit…IL has been bleeding out for a decade.
This is why the opt out movement is more appealing by the day. Even if the fixed the schools or fixed the elections, it’s just the tip of the iceberg. There are millions of people in this country who devote their existence to making sure the state grows more totalitarian and leftist. Why fight them? They already won. Just tell them to go fuck themselves and live
Dammit, I wanted to delete the comment, not post half of it.
I thought it was good as is.
New York really stood out to me because of the whole “we were 70 people short of not losing a seat” or whatever the number was. It turns out reality was they were way short.
I’m wondering if it’s enough to cause them to lose another seat.
I can’t believe NJ didn’t make the list.
New Jersey gained 120K people in the estimates from 2010-2018, and then another 350K on top of that by the 2020 census. Make of that what you will.
The mob spoke to the census takers?
New Jersey is better than NYC?
All in the erroneous census gives democrats 5 more house seats.
Remember when the Ds wanted to use estimations for apportionment? The Supreme Court said no but they weren’t going to let that stop them from getting what they want.
Or non citizens.
MN should have been under counted by 2, at least
Unsophisticated, like food pyramid unsophisticated?
Eat more grains!
All food is healthy if you are vaccinated.
No, the food must be vaccinated too.
And masked. Then we know it is safe.
I can’t find the version I remember from my childhood, but here is a Marilyn Manson song about the Food Pyramid.
You need gluten free ebola.
Dude, Ebola is like so 2013. Monkeypox is where it’s at.
Monkeypox was one of the ingredients in the AstraZeneca vaccine
https://twitter.com/mixmonstermike/status/1527249826085228545?s=21&t=Dg6uSaszu3r0uMGTuQQfzw
Every time I see “Monkeypox” I think “Monkey Puffs,” which sounds like a breakfast cereal.
Monkeypox! It comes in a box! Tastes like rocks and old gym socks!
Part of this complete breakfast.

While true, it would not go over well.

Why is it that support techs so often refuse to listen when I’m trying to tell them what has been happening and what has been tried so far?
You keep interrupting me jumping to conclusions just before I get to the part where it shows that, no, it’s not that.
PeopleSoft is melting my brain trying to get this darn thing working again!
First of all, Tonio NEVER phones it in.
The “Healthy” label is just stupid. The first most obvious problem is that some people will decide they can eat dozens of serving of these foods every day because they’re “healthy”.
There’s all this talk about right-wing trolls taking down the Ministry of Truth, but I think all the possible lawsuits and pushback from Republican congresspersons were the real story. To me these attorneys general have been one of the few bright lights in the last few years.
Thanks.
Agreed! “Tonio don’t phonio!”

The EU is batshit. They might push hard enough that the entire thing comes apart though.
The measures include locking all Eurocrats and politicians in small cells with no telecommunications access.
Anything except going to the negotiating table.
How much heat does burning a EU bureaucrat produce?
There is probably a lot of greasy oil in one of those.
And alcohol.

Since most of the comments on my post last night were OT, I’m going OT right now.
I have an occupied bird’s nest on my window sill. Until now, they have only been a mild annoyance, with their cheeping at the asscrack of dawn. But the forecast for this weekend is mid-90’s I shit you not. So I am going to have to close that window. It’s a casement (i.e. crank) window, so the nest is wedged right in there. I’d like to strongly encourage the birds to leave, rather than either a) relocate the nest (will involve a 30′ ladder, which I don’t have), or b) murder the things.
One colleague suggested spraying something chemically and unpleasant (like Lysol or something). I thought smoke might work, but 100% guaranteed my neighbors will call the fire dept after seeing smoke coming out of a window.
Any other suggestions other than outright avicide?
Ultrasound pest remover. No people can hear it.
Will one designed for mice work? What’s the range of those things? Not sure I have a socket close enough to the window.
One moment….
This is a horrible long link. This one is battery powered and has several frequencies so you can focus in on what you want to repel. Also a plastic owl with motion sensor noise might also be good.
PestContro Portable Ultrasonic Rodent Repeller, Battery-Operated Pest Control… https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OACRO12/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_api_i_8Y2328S3VH6SB3NBV5BP
Short answer is yes, there are ultrasounds for birds. That one probably works since it has two frequencies. Shop around, a farm supply may have one locally, and a plastic owl.
I’ll give that a try! Thanks!
Not sure how that could remove baby birds that can’t fly yet.
Maybe KK could show them her aeronautic videos for inspiration.
Oh, well you just eat those. With a little raspberry chipotle sauce. Crunchy crunch goodness!
Heck, if elephants have rights so do birds. You probably owe the birdies reparations if you disturb their nest. And what if their blackbirds? You gotta leave the window open until they fly away.
Straight to chemical warfare?
Are there eggs or fledglings in it? If not, hurry up and knock it own. They’ll build a new one.
I need to pull away the chunk of foam insulation that is currently blocking it to get a look. But all the squawking sounds distinctly juvenile/adult.
I’ll murder unhatched eggs if I have to, I guess.
I’m sorry about the OT KK.
Shhhhh…. you weren’t supposed to notice this.
https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/urgent-the-most-powerful-evidence
Someone should sue…oh.
That’s enraging. I know people who were pressured into getting the gene-jabs. I want the people who pressured them to be sued into financial ruin, then thrown into prison.
Drawn and quartered.
Wait, wait, they say – that’s cruel and unusual punishment! We say – you fucked the Constitution, you don’t get to hide behind it now Roperite.
Cruel and unusual is always determined by cultural norms.
Color me shocked. I wonder if anyone can can dig deeper and find out when this was first known. I’d have to assume the pharmaceutical companies at least had a pretty good idea of all this well before this paper was published. If our entire media wasn’t American Pravda, the idea that they were knowingly pushing a “vaccine” that might actually make you more susceptible to getting the disease it’s supposed to treat would be a massive scandal.
From the comments:
This is as clear of an example of the abused conservative as I’ve seen in a long time. This person thinks everybody is still playing politics. Everybody who is aware of the reality of these shots has drawn a line in the sand. Maybe they got a single shot and stopped. Maybe they said no to boosters. Maybe they’ve held out from day one. Wherever that line is drawn for that individual, they have a line.
Those Republicans standing in line for shot four aren’t gutless. They’re conquered. Whether or not they once had a seed of doubt, they’re now true believers. You cannot be against this crap and simultaneously submit to the medical tyrants’ every demand. At some point, a belief has to manifest in action if it’s in any way sincere.
trashy –
I’m going to cut some people a husk. These shots have been mandated upon pain of loss of employment or prison (if you’re in the military) – and a LOT of good people caved. I said from the beginning of this that was always the point: they wanted to know “who will bend the knee – and who won’t” when put to the squeeze. The answer told them a LOT.
HOWEVER, I’m not going to fault someone who was at 19+ years of service and being threatened with having their transferred education benefits of $85,000 to the kids being taken back by the government if they didn’t take it. Maybe because I know a lot of those cases happened – a LOT took it unwillingly. When this info comes out and eventually becomes understood – there might well be a fairly sizable number of angry mofos who feel like they got fucked by their own government – And by pharma companies – like Pfizer and Moderna, who just happen to have the last 2 FDA commissioners on their payroll now.
I think there’s a big difference between those who took the original jabs to keep a job and those who are exposed to this info and decide to get the boosters anyway because reasons.
The people I’ve encountered who were forced to get the jab are, almost to a person, angry and a bit humiliated at being violated like that. Some have sworn off the boosters. Some have worked hard to clean up their finances so they can weather the storm next time. Some are looking for opportunities to change careers into something less likely to result in forced medical experimentation. They are changed people.
Then there are those who may find the whole thing a bit distasteful, but dutifully march to the TMITE piper’s tune. Those are the conquered people. That little shred of conscience and self-preservation is a whisper of a voice in the back of their heads, easily crowded out by the seductive song coming from the TV.
Corporations are making “excess profits” and “price gouging” customers. Yet, at the same time, they are reporting disappointing earnings and the stock market has gone in the shitter. Puzzling, isn’t it?
12% revenue increases in times of 15% price inflation isn’t an upward swing.
The political blame-game has begun and the real pain hasn’t even shown up yet.
The question to me is whether the big equity firms will be able to maintain their stranglehold on corporate America. If that system breaks, the jig is up for the wokesters and the environuts.
How many dollars makes “excess .”
+$1. All profit is excessive.

They just write it off!
Miyares and Sears are the best things about the Youngkin administration.
They’re (Youngkin & the leg) dragging their feet on the legal weed stuff. Fighting over bullshit. It’s infuriating.
That’s a sop to the soccer moms that got Youngkin elected.
I’m willing to tolerate it if we get progress on the local control issues over education and limitations on emergency actions put in place.
My understanding is that the old black market supply chain, now gray market, is still intact and working fine. *cough*
The big sticking point seems to be set-asides for people convicted of non-violent weed-related crimes; the socon talking point is that these licenses are going to be awarded to “criminals.”
The Ds want to prioritize protected classes when handing out licenses.
Meanwhile, we libertarians are sitting here, like, “how about no licenses?”
Like 2016, dodged a bullet, so Virginia will be fortified back into the Clinton crime family in 2025.
Thanks, Tonio.
Nice to know that the Dems have completely and utterly abandoned any pretense of being anti war.

“Rand Paul calls for the Supreme Court to use a lie detector test to find out who leaked the Roe v. Wade draft”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10833947/Rand-Paul-urges-Supreme-Court-use-lie-detector-leaked-draft-overturning-Roe.html
Except lie detectors are bullshit.
We are going to hook you up to a machine that measures stress. Don’t stress, your job depends on you passing.
Yeah, but some stupid clerks don’t know that.
They’re really not. This kind of thing is exactly what a polygraph would be well suited for.
It would be more expensive and less fun than just taking everyone with access to the document, lining them up against a suitable backstop, and shooting them in the head one at a time until someone confesses.
Lie detectors are complete pseudoscience.
Measuring broad-spectrum stress responses compared to a baseline level during an interrogation, is not pseudoscience.
While it’s not possible to tell whether or not someone is lying in response to a particular inquiry, a well-trained poly operator can identify general patterns of deception with near-perfect reliability.
No they cannot. It’s nearly impossible to even devise an adequate experiment for this.
How many spies have passed polygraphs?
I seem to recall that both Ames and Hansen blew multiple lifestyle polys, but both had connections that they used to keep their clearances from being affected.
Remember Jerry, it’s not a lie if you believe it.

RC Dean, in case you missed the Dedthred,
Mr. Dean,
My rule of thumb – I buy the cheapest brass-cased factory ammo that was made in a country where I could safely drink the water. I’ll allow some leeway in that rule for Magtech (Brazil) and Aguila (Mexico) just based on prior experience – their ammo is good stuff.
Steel-cased ammo won’t hurt your gun, but it’s usually filthy and underpowered.
I don’t buy remanufactured ammo unless it’s from a maker I’ve tried out before. I’ve had good results with Atlanta Ammo, Felix, and Peak Performances.
Hope this helps!
I was gonna call you out on Aguila, but I figured the thread was dead.
And I’ve had zero problems with Magtech.
Magtech makes the best factory match 5.56mm ammo I’ve ever used (other than my Copper Creek stuff, and that’s handmade and two bucks a round). Too bad it hasn’t been in stock anywhere since 2019…
Oh, and that should be Fenix Ammunition and Peak Performance ammunition. Autocorrect, amirite?
Fenix is re-loaded? Pretty sure it’s all new.
Fenix’s defensive ammo is new. Their training ammo is remanufactured. Their competition stuff is split down the middle, some is new, some not.
I wouldn’t let that stop me from buying more of it. The Fenix 147grn. 9mm USPSA Minor load is very solid.
Magtech is fine. I bought a case of .22LR that was an Argentinian brand. Stuff shoots great.
As for factory reloads, I have done very well with Freedom Munitions.
I’m sorry to be difficult, but I have to say – my experience with Freedom Munitions soured me badly on the brand. A few years ago, I bought a bunch (30k divided between me and two other guys) of their 147grn. 9mm plated bullets, and all of them were sized incorrectly. The loaded ammo made with those bullets keyholed at ten yards, out of numerous different guns. Freedom Munitions’ reaction was, “Hey, they’re y’all’s reloads, not our problem if they don’t shoot…”
So yeah, I don’t recommend them.
A few weeks ago I was shooting some Red Army steel 9mm I had bought at the height of the shortage at an indoor range. It was really loud, smoky, and like a flashbulb going off. I swear there were also sparks coming out of the ejection port with the brass.
Shit’s filthy, smells funny too.
For reman, I’ve had good luck with https://www.minutemanmunitions.com/
Though really, they’re no cheaper than factory.
And Federal aluminum cased has always worked perfectly for me.
Boo, Everton survived relegation. Hopefully Burnley goes down now instead of Leeds.
So Elon tweeted something about Democrats being the party of division and hate, and Democrats are falling over themselves to prove how divisive and hateful they are.
That doesn’t take much doing.
It comes naturally to them.
Gaahh. Why did I go read comments on reddit about that?
Link?
https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/uso0hu/elon_musk_says_hell_vote_republican_bashes/
I mean, look at Musk’s haircut. TOTAL FASC
“Dictators often ask their underlings to publicly say outrageous things which everybody knows are false. This could be a fascist pledge of allegiance.”
You mean like, “Men can get pregnant?”
?
It’s amazing to me that Reddit’s main political forum, which should be a mix of opinions, is just a sea of lefties jerking each other off. There’s almost no dissent of any kind. That is, in their view, how social media should operate.
It is wretched.
Reddit is for the most moronic of the morons when it comes to politics and economics. It’s like a bunch of Lenins with lobotomies.
Isn’t that here minus the lefty part?
This is a small, self-selecting community that is started by and run for libertarian leaning individuals. Reddit is one of the largest sites on the internet and R/politics is nominally just for the discussion of politics. It isn’t aimed at one ideological group. You don’t end up with an echo chamber like that unless it becomes very clear to one side that they aren’t going to be engaged with on equal terms.
Gotcha, I’m not that familiar with Reddit’s political boards other than knowing enough to say they suck. They’ve banned their way into an echo chamber looks like.
The only way to kill the hidden hate in the heart of every Republican (anyone to the right of Pol Pot) is to get out front of them with much louder, more obvious hate. That’s real love.

I agree with them.
Back from Pocatello. Looked at a little house in a decent quiet older neighborhood. Said house is well into the overlap of “fixer-upper, or tearer-downer?” It was built in like 1910. It reminds me a lot of some of the houses I and my friends lived in, in college. Not too far from Idaho State, actually.
“Why?” you ask. Because it’s on a decent sized corner lot, with enough room to put a garage/shop twice as big as the house. I can’t tell if I’m running out of patience or options faster.
I just signed another lease. Still too insane for my taste.
And the thought of moving makes me break out in hives.

But doesn’t this mean that Liberalism requires old ideas that can not be rejected and constantly have to be articulated and defended and there is a need for there to be people who support such values? As opposed to blather about modernity, change, progress, new tech and assuming that wealthy educated urbanites will automatically be liberals?

“There are currently loud drunk people outside my window in Spain. I’m not at all worried somebody will get shot. Why? Because of guns, or lack thereof.”
I hope this guy doesn’t worry that a gunfight is imminent every time a drunk person raises his voice in the U.S.
There are currently no loud drunk people outside my window in Virginia. This is nice. I like it.
Another great interview by Carolla (David Mamet) – I’m way behind but slowly getting caught up again.

Testosterone Treatment Turns Democrat Voters More Conservative.
I couldn’t decide.
Me neither. Great article. So, several millions darts full of testosterone?
I cheated. Bee links turn yellow for me.
Both turn green for me. ??♂️
We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask, what is our policy? I will say: It is to First, by sea, land, and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us; to First against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: It is First, First at all costs, First in spite of all terror, First, however long and hard the road may be.
We shall First on the beaches, we shall First on the landing grounds, we shall First in the fields and in the streets, we shall First in the hills; we shall never second.
Jeez, premature firsting! Next post is at 7:00!

I took the day off today. It was glorious. I ran errands, weeded part of the yard, and am now enjoying a mojito using fresh mint from my garden. I got all the stuff I need to make a backyard solar powered fountain this weekend.
Look at Tulip reveling in her white and seconder privilege where she can take a day off.
You know who doesn’t get days off? Firsters.
And presumably minorities and gays who have to spend all their time exerting extra mental energy dealing with the white people.
You just wish you were enjoying a mojito and planning your next landscaping project.
That inspired me. I am getting a martini and going outside.
I only drink martinis on weekends.
We expect pics.
This seems like an easy article, so yeah pics.

Lovely day! Cheers, Tulip!

Why is this nut job on the street?
California?
Because LA District Attorney George Gascon declined to charge him with a felony for the knife attack on Chappelle?
Gascon needs a good stabbin’ himself.
China Insists Party Elites Shed Overseas Assets, Eyeing Western Sanctions on Russia

Sounds like China is continuing to move closer towards action against Taiwan. Regardless, the world environment is starting to feel more like pre-WW3 or perhaps pre-WWI but with nukes.
The weaponizing of the international financial system by the West may go down as the single dumbest move in history.
Previous generations of top men fought very hard to bring the Russians and Chinese into the fold…so their far lesser successors, given the challenge of authority which was just too good not to abuse, could fuck it all up.
That’s the infuriating part. They just couldn’t resist the temptation to abuse the trust.
We should have no doubt as to how we will be treated by them.
We ain’t seen nothing yet.
Buh buh buh baby.
WWI was the last war of kings. WWII was the war to settle what would be the next international political system.
That system, liberalism, is failing. And in its failing it is going to drag the world into another conflict.
Just finished my legally mandated diversity training. I’m feeling extra obnoxious now.
Feel free to call me a dago thistle-arse Kraut.
It will be cathartic.
All that and you’re a cunte too.
You’re right. That felt good.
Always here for you, brother.
Come vote on next week’s reprehensible sleazy movie at 7:00 then. Maybe even watch one in advance!
RJ – I know you talk about the movies you may cover ahead of time, but I think it would do your article good to announce each week before hand what next weeks will be. People can watch if they choose beforehand and the Thursday article can be for discussion.
Not a bad plan. When time allows we at least announce it on Mondays. Could also include a link.
Nice excuse for a post…
If I actually worked in an office now, if be staring at boobs and grabbing some ass after that training. I always figured it wasn’t appropriate office behavior, but that training is like waving a red cape in front of a bull.
Drugs/ass probably
W accidentally told truth regarding Iraq war.

Honestly, it can’t be posted enough.
Still wonder what happened to the anti-war left in this country. Bunch of useless Hippies.
The vast majority of them opposed the draft solely. As for the rest they were either Commies, hated Republicans or thought the MIC was too white…
Everything in the Team, nothing outside the Team, nothing against the Team.
It’s cooled down a bit, so I did a little more yard clean up. Today, I filled 3 paper yard bags. Got my glib fit in.
Haz intelligence?
You know, I’m going to take most of tomorrow off as well. This has been restorative and I want to.
I have survived the family visit. They leave at about 10:45 tomorrow.
I’ve learned a lot. Parents constantly on their screens = frustrated/sad/attention-seeking jerks.
So as the parents neglected shit, I put on
Y bathing suit and flung the kids in the pool,
Eventually their parents deigned to get in. But pretty sure that the fact they can actually swim now is due to my instruction.
No worries, Hayek. They just grow up to worse than you would imagine. Circle of life and all that bullshit. My first Grandson was a terror. Now he’s a sneaky, spoiled terror.
Dead-site. Festus is rocking in the corner.
Hello?
World?

I assume something difficult is going on either technically or personally.
I’m praying for everyone.
