Global warming has not taken effect here- it’s been single digit (F) temperatures all week with unceasing snowfall. Much snow (we’ve had about two feet in aggregate so far this month) and ice (a perfect medium to keep under the snow to maximize hazards), much slipping and sliding here in Glibs Gulch. I have some impressive bruising from the inevitable results of gravity on my fat ass combined with a remarkably low coefficient of friction. I need to seek medical help immediately, but unfortunately, that will have to wait until tomorrow when I go up to see Prime. My poor car couldn’t make it up the hill to get me home, so I had to drift back into a parking lot and trudge home. The dogs have been in heaven, but Rosie managed to ditch her collar somewhere in the yard, buried under at least a foot of the white stuff.

I probably disagree with 95% of the shit Trump does. Here’s something in the 5%, assuming he doesn’t fuck it up. Not far enough, but at least the right direction. Archive version.
But of course, they have to qualify this by the usual “genocide” blather. Because lying is in their DNA- you can’t say something true without counterbalancing it.
Public employee unions are the most evil and corrosive part of American society.
I’ll put this in the 5% basket I mentioned before.
The last line of this story confirms that it’s bullshit. I think the unaccounted variable is that the Green Bay fans were too shitfaced to respond to the survey.

If you don’t know and revere Don Byas, you don’t know jazz.
Im torn on the whole Venezuelan adventure but actually adding teeth to sanctions is refreshing in a way.
Somali pitates only wish they had the firepower the US is bringing to the game.
Our piracy is totally legit and legal because… sorry, I got nothing,
Sovereignty. At the end of the day that is what sovereign power is.
Sovereign pirates?
Sovereignty – the power to get away with shit without being held to account.
“War” used to be a card game little kids could play. Rarely did anyone ever get hurt
If the feds can steal from a sovereign government then they can steal from you. They already do of course but this further normalizes it.
That’s the thing here – what sovereign country is being robbed? Does the ship have a real jurisdiction in which it is registered/operated? Doesn’t appear it does.
I’m reading that the tanker was unflagged/claimed a false flag, which means this wasn’t technically piracy and is actually the sort of thing that is done pretty routinely.
Complain all you want (and I’m sure you will) about how stupid sanctions are, how stupid drug laws are, why can’t the Venezuelans kill their own dictator already, blah blah, but the whole seized tanker thing is pretty much by the book.
I’ve read the same, but I haven’t seen confirmation.
But I’d say if it was falsely flagged, and the country who’s flag the ship was flying isn’t bothered, sounds like it was proper to me.
Hence why I am glad we are following up on sanctions in place. Running AIS/GPS spoofing, ship-to-ship transfers in the highseas, swapping flags…all have gone on like a parent threatening restriction and never following through
The forms have been obeyed!
Just like FISA warrants.

Authoritarian Trumpism got a little more zany on Thursday when Mike Lindell, the MyPillow guy known for his antics trying to overturn the 2020 presidential election, announced he was running for governor of Minnesota.
How is one guy tossing his hat in the ring have anything to do with “authoritarian Trumpism,” whatever that is?
If he wins the GOP primary, he’ll face off against Gov. Tim Walz.
There has to be one sensible, capable Republican out there that voters can choose to replace Governor ‘Tard, should they want to (this is not a given). Lindell thinking he can parachute in and win on name recognition alone seems like a long shot.
one sensible, capable Republican out there
There is one, and only one – sorta like The Highlander. The Congressman from Kentucky.
The Senate is in congress, so there are two from KY.
Paul is trying too hard not to be his father IMO. But still head and shoulders better than everyone else.
Well, it looks like the retard may win.
There’s gotta be a joke in there about the MyPillow guy running against the pillow-biter governor.
What’s the difference between Lindell and Walz? One makes the pillow, the other bites it.
Lindell said this election should be a heck of a horse race, Walz replied that he wasn’t that thirsty.
The reincarnated spirit of one of my dead cats should be able to beat that crook Walz.
The guy is toast. Even the NYT could not sweep the massive corruption under the rug.
Newly elected Virginia AG Jay Jones smiles a cheshire grin at you.
C’mon, man, Walz didn’t know.
Never underestimate the 7 county metro area. Ilham is a shoo-in, Walz on her coattails.
Walz is in a state that would vote for a bag of rocks if it had a “D” after its name.

The drinking rankings are based on flawed methodology. Bengals and Browns fans are badly under reported due to the study only counting drinks pregame and during the game. We do our heavy drinking post game.
From personal experience, Packers fans were an impressive lot. Vikings fans slotted in a bit behind them. Cinci and the Yinzers can both hold their own.
I can’t find the story now, and AI is insisting I am mistaken, but I recall an incident years ago where a bunch of fans at one of the riverfront bars decided it was a good idea to let their blind, but sober friend drive.
Back in the ’90s, when I lived in KC area, during a home game, the entire town shut down for Red Friday and the drinking started then.

Sure Russia could attack NATO in 5 years, they ought to be done with Ukraine by then, maybe.
That shows how desperate NATO is to play the Russian bogeyman card. How can ANYONE seriously intone the danger of the mighty Russian army now? Sure, if he launched a nuke at Paris, then I could see the rest of you crumbling, but other than that? The Fulda Gap has never been as secure as it is now.
That is what has most annoyed me about this whole thing. The Eurotrash screeching about how scary Putin is and comparing him to Hitler, and anyone not all in on the war to Chamberlain. Yeah, Putin invading Ukraine is like Hitler invading the Sudetenland, except it’s like it if 40 months into that invasion half the Wehrmacht was dead, the Luftwaffe had lost 2/3 of its planes, and Czechoslovakia was still fighting back.
I think Poland is fairly safe this time around, and much as I would love to see an invasion of Belgium, it’s right out.
They don’t believe it. If they did, they would easily exceed NATO commitments and half the countries would be conscripting young men or preparing to. Schools would begin emphasizing physical fitness, and there would be national efforts to reinvigorate things like Scouts and shooting clubs in case things get real.
The problem is that that, after the Russians and the U.S., Ukraine had the biggest and best army in Europe.
The Russians couldn’t even manage the logistics NEXT DOOR. Remember the 40 mile convoy early on? If the rest of Europe is an even bigger paper maché tiger then they deserve what they get.
I agree with you – the Russians aren’t invading Western Europe.
But the rest of Europe with the exception of Poland has joke militaries.
The Polish army is no joke, and the Russians would somehow have to get through Poland first.
Now do the Polish navy.
DrOtto:
Did they run out of screen doors?
Now do the Polish navy.
Strange euphemism.
Polish Navy is well stocked on FlexSeal, so take that haters!
“Sure, if he launched a nuke at Paris, then I could see the rest of you crumbling, but other than that?”
I am on the record (yesterday’s PM links) as supporting US withdrawal from NATO. However, I also support us honoring our treaty obligations.
“launched a nuke at Paris” is interesting phrasing, particularly in light of recent Israeli developments in laser defense systems to counter anything in the air. It also is a statement made devoid of context. There’s a big difference between Putin just randomly launching a nuke, and Putin doing so as a response to French troops on Russian soil, to define the endpoints. But that circles back to why we need out of NATO since our so-called allies may deliberately provoke a Russian response that obligates our involvement.
My point being that a nuclear launch is the only credible threat to Europe from Russia.
The biggest threat to Europe is the insanity of the European leaders. Short of nukes they’re doing a better job of destroying Europe than Russia ever could.
You can’t get the Team America achievement playing as Russia.
Or they “could not”.
These people are not serious. All warmongers crawling out from under their rocks.
If we pulled out of NATO and then Team Euro decided to let Ukraine or Georgia replace us, then I could see it happening.
Otherwise, no fucking way.
We pull out of NATO, NATO stops playing stupid games.
While I too think the argument is BS, I will note that Russia borders the Nato counties of Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia, so they wouldn’t have to march very far to invade. There are Russian minorities in those countries which could give Putin a pretext to invade. The enclave of Kaliningrad also borders on Poland, though I think invading Poland would be a lot less likely.
We got the low end of the snow estimates with what looks like 2″. Another 2-4 though is looking likely tomorrow.

Speaking of public unions and collective bargaining, the House passed a bill to restore such by annulling Trump’s EO. Here are the Republicans who voted YEA.
Doesn’t matter, even if it passes the senate they don’t have the votes to override Trump’s veto.
20 Republicans voted for the bill. I think that matters even if it is deader than Ulysses S. Grant.
Could very well just be positioning themselves for the next election. Voting for a “popular” law that they know isn’t going to make it into the lawbooks.
And there you have it, give kinnath the kewpie doll! The fucking voters in this country.
20 Republicans voted for the bill. I think that matters even if it is deader than Ulysses S. Grant.
It matters as further illustration that Republicans are worthless shits.
“The Old Guy got implicit bias training.”
Ugh. Sorry for you and anyone else who has had to endure that.
I had exactly one of those bullshit mandatory trainings before I retired. Predictably, it did not go well. I did however enjoy making the instructor squirm (much to the dismay of my fellow employees) without even having to reveal that I was one of the people the training was seeking to “protect.”
To be fair, you need to examine your implicit bias against twinks. :-p

Budget-focused? I don’t care about Venezuelan drug runners. I don’t even care much about us enforcing sanctions by blockade. But trying to spin anything in the spending as usual Big Beautiful Bill as budget-focused enrages me.
Goodness, it makes the Covid Bonuses look trivial. If Biden would have seriously stepped up to the plate he’d still be president.
Fuck you, cut spending.

A Pyrrhic victory.
It is a good thing but these are agency policy decisions that aren’t enshrined in law because the Reps in congress are feckless weasels who suck ass.
So, yes, a good thing until the day the left gets back in power.

Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday that seeks to halt any laws limiting artificial intelligence and block states from regulating the rapidly emerging technology. The order also creates a federal taskforce that will have the “sole responsibility” of challenging states’ AI laws.

“‘This Has Gone Way Too Far’: Videos Show Bizarre Sexual Ceremony That Elite Amherst College Pushes All First Year Students To Attend
The event, ‘Voices of Amherst,’ is paid for by the administration and takes place in the school’s chapel
Amherst College was founded over two centuries ago to prepare young Christian men for the ministry. Today, however, the prestigious college has become a hotbed of administratively sanctioned sex performances and “sexual skills” programs, with a focus on “queer” and transgender students and on free-sex practices such as polyamory. The graphic nature of school-sanctioned sex events has made many current Amherst students deeply uncomfortable, according to students who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon.”
https://freebeacon.com/campus/this-has-gone-way-too-far-videos-show-bizarre-sexual-ceremony-that-elite-amherst-college-pushes-all-first-year-students-to-attend/
I remember when a drunk guy was expelled for receiving a blow job from a sober girl.
“On the chapel’s chancel, students performed mock sex acts including oral sex, masturbation, and group sex. A young woman bent over while another student pretended to penetrate her from behind. Others pretended to do drugs and shared their “high thoughts.””
Back in my day, the kids didn’t *pretend* to get high and fuck…
“Materials promoted by the Queer Resource Center aimed to teach students different types of healthy non-monogamous relationships, listing sexual scenarios such as “open relationships,” “threesomes,” and “swinging,” as well as newer sex concepts like “relationship anarchy,” and “polyfidelity.” The Amherst communication office categorized “Beyond Monogamy” as part of its sexual health education programming.”
relationship anarchy?
Sex with libertarians?
(Ayn Rand, of course was not a libertarian.)
Ayn Rand especially despised libertarians.
Amherst is elite?
BWahahahahahahahaha
At that price it better be.
Roughly the same as Oberlin.
Expensive doesn’t always mean better.
In education the rule seems to be that cost is inversely proportional to quality.
Guess we all have egg on our faces. It seems elite universities actually do prepare their students for what they will encounter in life after graduation.
I’m not exactly a square but this is just ridiculous. At a chapel even?
A lot of people would have even less kind words than I about that trash.

In August, Trump confirmed a Wall Street Journal report that he was considering reclassifying marijuana as a Schedule III drug, meaning that it would have low abuse potential. As it currently stands, pot is a Schedule I drug, meaning that it has a high potential for abuse and has no accepted medical use.
I’ve long said it would be a Republican that re-legalizes marijuana at the Federal level.
Given this is Trump, I’ll believe he does it when I see it.
Yeah, Trump often runs off at the mouth and then backs down based on pushback. It would be a positive development though.
Maybe this time…

“Common appliance in a third of US homes is increasing your risk of lung cancer and diabetes — as New York considers ban
A new study out of Stanford University suggests that an everyday household appliance accounts for a staggering amount of exposure to nitrogen dioxide, which is known to irritate airways, worsen asthma and even potentially lead to lung cancer and diabetes.
Gas and propane stoves account for one-fourth of indoor and outdoor long-term nitrogen dioxide exposure for those who cook with them at home, according to the study. Indoor exposure jumps to more than half of their total if they use their stove often….
These stoves also release benzene, a dangerous chemical linked to leukemia and other blood disorders.
Another analysis from Stanford suggested that children’s lifetime cancer risk from benzene emitted by gas stoves can be up to 1.85 times higher than adults.”

“I checked out the SomaliSpot story online through the Minnesota Official Marriage System. Inputting Omar’s name, I found that the two marriages cited in the SomaliSpot post checked out as indicated. The site reflected Omar’s 2002 marriage to her advertised husband, Ahmed Aden (later Ahmed Hirsi), and her 2009 marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi identified in the SomaliSpot post as Omar’s brother. As it turned out, Omar and Hirsi had only applied for a marriage license in 2002 but never followed through with a legal marriage….
What I said in 2016 remains true today. In 2019, however, the state campaign finance board released its investigative file on Omar’s 2016 campaign finance violations. The file was full of interesting documents bearing on the 2016 campaign controversy. Among them were Omar’s 2014 and 2015 tax returns filed jointly with Ahmed Hirsi, whom she had never legally married, while she was still legally married to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi.”

There are various versions of the five rules for tyrants but they all include intimidation. One needs a thug army to intimidate. To pay that thug army one needs a source of income. Taxes won’t do the trick because impoverishing the population is also on the list of rules. So an outside source of revenue is needed. It almost always comes in the form of something illegitimate….drugs, black market this or that. In the case of Iran and Venezuela it is black market oil. Thus, sanctions have been put on both countries.
Normally these sanctions are just theater. Along comes a guy who says “Nah, not theater. We are going to enforce the sanctions.” and suddenly everyone loses their fucking minds.
My suggestion to people criticizing Trump over seizing the black market Venezuelan oil: STFU. You are embarrassing yourself.

Aww, let the Guardian do their little happy dance.
And no, you’re not going to get an honest explanation from that outfit.
The current districts (7-2 for Republicans) are actually pretty clean looking. To get a 9-0, Indianapolis had to be parceled out and the rest of the map took on a less compact district structure.
Thank you. I live in Indiana, and I was pretty confused by the whole thing. My friend’s father-in-law is a state senator who voted against it. I usually like the way he votes. So like Tater, I get the feeling there’s a lot more to this.
lol They were going for 9-0? Yeah, that’s ridiculous.
OTOH the GOP is completely shut out in numerous blue states so turnabout is fair play?

“An ongoing FBI investigation into a Belarusian woman accused of smuggling US aviation parts and electronics to Russia is teetering on the brink of collapse after being caught in what one judge called a “Kafkaesque” case brought on by the Trump administration’s attempts to deport her before she faces trial.
Federal prosecutors had worked for over a year to secure the extradition of Yana Leonova, who faces multiple charges including fraud, conspiracy, and money laundering. But their efforts unraveled when immigration officials abruptly issued an order to detain and deport her soon after she was flown into the US last month, a move that plunged the case into legal chaos.
“Indeed, it is both preposterous and offensive for the government to bring someone into the United States against their will and then turn around and seek ICE detention because that person is here ‘illegally,’” magistrate judge Zia M Faruqui said in a written order.”

WTF??
‘Offended’ by government incompetence? Where have you been for the last hundred years?
They’ve got him now
Nearly 100,000 photos obtained by House Democrats from the estate of notorious sex predator Jeffrey Epstein include images of President Donald Trump, former President Bill Clinton, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, film director Woody Allen, and former Trump White House advisor Steve Bannon and others in social settings.
One image among a batch of photos released Friday morning shows Trump standing in the middle of a row of six women, whose faces were covered over by the Democrats before release. Some of the women are wearing Hawaiian leis around their necks.
Was he grabbing their pussies?
“whose faces were covered”
This shit needs to stop.
Standing with womenz? Oh noez! And the lei is such important detail that it really nails him the cross
Also..
Dems sure quickly figured out what a woman was
“…in social settings…”
And?
That stood out to me too. I think most of us here have gotten trained to see the dishonestly. It’s so obvious and it makes me sick. They start with a “bombshell” headline, and later completely nullify it with statements like this. The photos were all in a public setting and nothing was compromising.

“School board members sue NY AG James over letter on public transgender debate they find threatening
Not dissuaded by poor track record in court on regulating speech, the attorney general warned school board members they risk removal for not cutting off speech that questions gender identity, criticizes policies that prioritize it over sex.
New York Attorney General Letitia James has repeatedly run afoul of federal judges in her quest to regulate the speech of pro-life pregnancy centers, but that hasn’t dissuaded her from trying to control speech on other polarizing issues in which courts have rebuked censors.
School board members and parents are now suing the AG and New York Education Commissioner Betty Rosa for allegedly threatening to remove the former from office for “publicly supporting sex-separated interscholastic sports and school facilities” or “using pronouns that correspond to biological sex” at board meetings, or even for letting the latter say the same things.”

Never forget American voters put that bitch into office.
New York voters. There’s a difference.
Virginia voters elected Jay Jones.
The eternal failure of democracy, given a name and a face.
On the states and AI laws….how exactly would that work? In what way could a state limit AI in their jurisdiction? AI is not located in a place.
The same way the states are regulating access to social media, gambling, porn, and other sites?
Suthen, let me introduce you to a place called “California”.
I am not saying they can’t pass laws. I am asking how in hell would they enforce them? You can legislate weather all you want, it is still going to rain on weekends.
Use the air guard to bomb data centers and AI farms?
We have access to AI in some of the tech we use in teaching. If the state started regulating it, I could see usage being restricted or even banned.
No way to have seen this coming. What with the COVID price gouging, the aging portfolio, awful EVs and reputation for poor quality. Completely unforseeable.
The collapse in demand has seen the company account for only eight in every 100 cars sold in the US this year, its lowest market share since Chrysler launched in 1928.

I’m still in the market for a replacement vehicle. Liquidate that inventory at $10k apiece and I’m in.
I love my old truck, but even when it was new Dodge had issues.
The newer Rams seem really nice, especially with a Cummins, but the emissions equipment hurts their reliability.
Add in the $100K cost and it’s hard to justify when you could buy a nice older one and fix it into like new condition for less.
I loved the Cummins NP205 and Dana 60 in my 93.
Hated the package they came in.
“Images also include thousands of photographs of women and Epstein properties,” the statement said. “Committee Democrats are reviewing the full set of photos and will continue to release photos to the public in the days and weeks ahead. Committee Democrats are committed to protecting the identities of the survivors.”
6th amendment be damned. Uncorroborated innuendo is good enough for government work.
“Committee Democrats are committed to protecting the identities of the survivors”
Protecting them from what?
“Survivors”
The selective redactions are a chefs kiss as it implies that any woman nearby him was victimized.
That explains why Epstein isn’t redacted, but Trump definitely survived.
Rep. Robert Garcia of California, the ranking Democrat on the committee, in a statement said, “It is time to end this White House cover-up and bring justice to the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and his powerful friends.”
“These disturbing photos raise even more questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful men in the world. We will not rest until the American people get the truth. The Department of Justice must release all the files, NOW.”
Be vewwy vewwy quiet. We’we hunting witches.
Selective truths
a singer you did NOT fuck with;
Mia Farrow said “Hold my beer, Woody.”
“Some of the other photos that we did not put out today are incredibly disturbing,” Garcia added
Unimagineable depravity. The sort of stuff not even Larry Flint would publish. Tune in next week, same bat time, same bat channel.
Dems: why you hiding info!
Also Dems: we cant release all the photos
“Ex-MSNBC host Joy Reid, who has been working independently with her own show as of late, shared a video this week that claimed, “Jingle Bells” was written to “make fun of black people” and is rooted in racism. She shared the video on her Instagram to her 1.3 million followers.
The video, originally posted by user “Know Your Caribbean,” shows a man in a sweater in Medford, Massachusetts, at a plaque where it is believed that James Lord Pierpont wrote the song in 1850. The caption in the video then reads, “This is where a racist Confederate soldier wrote ‘Jingle Bells’ to make fun of black people, and has its origins in bigoted minstrel shows that were popular at the time.”

Is there anything that isn’t racist?
If anyone wants to take a deep dive, it’s based on this totally academic paper:
https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/theatre-survey/article/story-i-must-tell-jingle-bells-in-the-minstrel-repertoire/D42C78950A58BDB88290954F73B195B2
I’m still hearing “Baby it’s Cold Outside” so I think this is going to fall flat too.
Joy Reid should rip those white teeth from her mouth.
Well we know black people can’t ever be racist.
Is there a more vacuous statement the progs make that they think is profound?
I know there are quite a few in the running for it, but that one is my favorite.
I remember when Trump said that he was the least racist person on the stage and the response was shrieking “How could he say that?!?” “There was a black woman on the stage with them!”
How do we know they’re black if they don’t have ID’s?

“We’re the only great country that lets other people just come in without vetting them and deciding whether they’re really going to help the economy of America,” Lutnick said Thursday on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”
“Let’s bring in the top of the best,” he said. “Let’s help them grow America and build America. Why should we take people who are below average? It just doesn’t make any sense.”
That’s just crazy.
Lutnick said an immigrant’s willingness to shell out the $1 million can “prove” they are worthy of having an expedited application.
“We should be bringing in the best and the brightest,” Lutnick said. “That’s what Donald Trump is changing about our immigration system.”
Pardon my ignorance, but are they saying these people are going to write a check to the Treasury Dept for a million bucks on arrival?
Something I have heard new zeeland and Australia does or has done. Ive not looked into moving to a prison island so I’m not sure.
