“Trump confirms U.S. sent guns to Iranian people, but says intermediary kept them”
wrong link?
Corrected
Is the intermediary hiding and in fear of his life?
Do you think he said “I took the guns, and Iran!”
So far away?
2 Fast 2 Furious?
Tragic boating accident on the Euphrates?
Student guns instead of loans …
“CIA Used Top-Secret Tech to Locate Downed US Aviator in Iran, Director Says”
Maybe they’ll find Emilia Earhart?
That’s the real mission of Artemis II.
You mean the Moon Nazis took her?!
Emelia Earhart was a tasty morsel.
Especially when Amy Adams played her
Needz moar zeros.
I don’t think there is any way to remove all the people Biden let in illegally.
There’s a way. I’m not sure there’s the will.
There is always going to be some non-zero number, but lets keep that as low as possible, hmm?
“There is always going to be some non-zero number, but lets keep that as low as possible, hmm?”
what?
That there will always be people living in the country, any country for that matter, is inevitable. But the desire to keep that number as low as possible is the goal.
Bullshit.
Pilots carry locators as part of their survival gear. It periodically sends out an encrypted data burst telling us where it is.
Poorly written headline but it isnt bullshit.
Encrypted signalling can still be geo-located, but this employed frequency hoping and some other nifty EM tricks to ensure that couldn’t happen or make it exponentially harder to do so.
I’m calling bullshit on it being top secret tech. And on the CIA having had a role in any of it.
I mean, frequency hopping has been a thing for thirty years now.
UCS, there is a TS system. When I worked JTRS we were system-high Secret, not TS, even though we had an objective requirement (optional) to run that capability. I don’t believe it was a CIA system, because we worked with a different three letter agency for the most part.
George Antheil doesn’t get the credit he deserves because he doesn’t tick the right demographic check box.
Shhh! That’s top secret!
Those are rookie numbers, we need to get those numbers up.
The Department of Education announced on Monday that it
has rescinded Biden-era resolution agreements to several schools that imposed the previous administration’s “radical transgender agenda.”still exists despite Donald Trump campaigning on ending the department.Fixed it for you.
They transferred 118 programs out of the agency so far and are moving federal student loans to the treasury.
So, all show and no substance in terms of actually getting rid of anything.
Making it so the agency is reduced to almost nothing is quite an accomplishment considering Congress refuses to act. Are you people just perpetually fucking miserable?
If the programs that are the problem have not gone away but just been hidden under the rugs at other agencies – what was gained by shrinking the nominal size of one agency while growing the others?
I’m less interested in getting rid of some letterhead and signage, and more interested in eliminating programs and spending. USAID and DeptEd are more the former than the latter.
Sounds like you didn’t want the Department to get dismantled, but spending to be cut. Which is less likely than getting congress to kill a department.
If I had to choose, I would take a skeletonized DeptEd over all the programs and spending transferred to secure bunkers in other departments. I don’t object to the programs and spending under one roof, I object to the programs and spending.
To summarize what I’ve read, the number of FedGov employees may be dropping but the overall budget is still rapidly increasing – so not much of a win for me.
The amount of black pills that get passed around here, a la Jim Jones and his Glibertarian Republic, is quite astonishing, Banjos.
Well, we can’t shake our canes and complain if we’re happy with what’s going on.
Too many bemoan the imperial presidency then bitch about the lack of imperialism. They know damn well he needs Congress to do it, and they know damn well Congress won’t.
You all easily forgot what life was like during Biden. And ignore how bad it could get under one of the current crop of batshit crazy Democrats. People are leaving blue states in droves as life gets consistently worse and you bitch that the man who only has so much power isn’t waiving a magic wand to get the useless cunts in Congress to do what he wants. Am I happy with Trump? I’m not ecstatic. But I also live in the world of realistic expectations. And regularly ask the question “compared to what?”
You are incorrect. I am well aware of all those things. I just see no point in celebrating a non-victory.
It’s a beautiful day, and our military just pulled off one of the greatest feats of arms ever. There are wins to celebrate.
They reduced the overall civilian workforce by over 10%. That is a victory. 50% of the department of ed’s personnel was cut. That is a victory. They did manage to cut/consolidate 30 programs. That is a victory. They did massive amount of grant terminations. That is a victory.
UCS gets it.
Shuffling the deck chairs is unimpressive.
We’ve seem Trump go to bat for legislation he likes (the Big Beautiful Bill) and against legislation he didn’t like (the Epstein Bill). I’ve seen exactly zero of that for any of the bills currently before Congress ending the Department of Education. Trump doesn’t want to end the Department of Education. Calling him out on his failure to deliver is not blackpilling.
And when they flee blue states/cities, they bring their batshit crazy politics with the. We’ve gone from Northeastern Republicans and ‘all politics is local’ Democrats to a supermajority of Democratic Socialist types.
They are overwhelmingly right-wingers escaping blue states. Previous red state immigration was economic/jobs driven. But the increase over the last decade (accelerating since COVID) has overwhelmingly been ideological. There’s a reason why Florida and Texas keep getting redder.
They say they’re republican/conservative but then put up Beto and now, Telarico signs in their yard telling me they learned nothing.
They reduced the overall civilian workforce by over 10%.
Glass half full? Spending hasn’t even leveled off. What this must mean is moar govt contractors!
If it wasn’t for Texas transplants, Beto would have won in 2018.
Look, Ma, I cleaned my room like you asked. I pushed all the trash into the hallway.
Spending increases have overwhelmingly been due to entitlements. Which we are all now learning has insane levels of fraud in it.
Are they? If so, it seems a miracle to me.
All of the growth is in suburbia and suburbia is very much blue these days so not sure what’s in the water there if that is true.
Nobody worry, Team Red will get rid of him soon enough

Spending increases have overwhelmingly been due to entitlements. Which we are all now learning has insane levels of fraud in it.
I’ve been looking at the monthly US Treasury statements for a while now.
I’m eyeballing the February 2026 statement.
Increases FY2026 YTD over FY2025 comparable period are in SSA benefits, medicare, medicaid, Federal pensions, Defense spending, and interest on the debt. I’m eyeballing the numbers, but I don’t see the increases overwhelmingly in SSA/medicare/medicaid. They’re about half of the increases I see.
And to add on to the monthly treasury statement stuff, that statement includes part of the DHS shutdown, so the DHS numbers are not typical.
All of the growth is in suburbia and suburbia is very much blue these days
Even in New Jersey it’s mostly the cities that are blue, while the suburbs are mostly red.
I guess it depends on how you define “suburb” – the ones adjacent to cities are resoundingly blue these days. Farther out, probably less so.
“We can’t/aren’t gonna do what we said we would do because c’mon, who actually does that? So we will do something else that is almost entirely symbolic, pretend that it is the same and then hold that thing up as a trophy for the voters”
“… isn’t waiving a magic wand to get the useless cunts in Congress to do what he wants.”
——
It seems to me that he is constantly attacking (and wants to completely get rid of) the only member of Congress who seems to want to cut any spending. That feels like an odd approach to take if you want to cut spending.
Who in the hell believes Trump cares about cutting spending? Big Beautiful Bill anyone?
To be fair. He needed the bill to roid up ICE and border patrol. They are funded through 2029, making them shutdown proof. To get what he wanted, he had to give everyone else what they wanted so, as usual, we got a massive bloated bill. But we also got Trump in a position where democrats can’t do shit to stop him with cleaning out the illegals.
I think that it is much simpler. Voters who wanted spending cuts have already been used and so now they can be thrown away.
Methinks you may be a bit delusional if you believe for even a single second that the ratio of “those who wanted spending cuts” is anything larger than a rounding error in comparison to those who wanted things like mass deportations.
Did he even campaign on cutting spending? Even a little?
What was DOGE?
Ineffectual.
Oh I understand the nature of political compromises, and how us taxpayers are compromised most of all.
But you are deluded beyond words if you think Trump is interested in actually cutting government. So the nature of the compromise is the same as it always is: less more is always more not less.
Not completely, but overwhelmingly. Though it may not matter in the long run, now we know what we always imagined was happening, and on a much larger scale than we could have imagined.
On the bright side thousands of shit contracts funding shit organizations doing shit things were cancelled.
DOGE was too effective, so it was killed. Scott Bessent (Soros’ Accountant and Sec Treasury) reportedly got Musk run out of town and DOGE stopped.
Another sterling hire by Trump.
On the bright side thousands of shit contracts funding shit organizations doing shit things were cancelled.
Were they, really? Or did the money just flow into some other shit contract to shit organizations doing shit things (that we have yet to hear about)?
Seems like DOGE was the carrot on the stick and then it turned out to be a Play-Doh carrot anyway.
Meh. Linda McMahon as Sec Ed is effectively winding the department down.
The COVID stimulus was unforgivable. And it’s fortunate that the (D)s were too stupid to make the case that “Biden’s inflation” wasn’t the result of that.
As stated up above:
Shuffling the deck chairs is not winding down the department.
Trump has gone to bat for legislation he wants and to bat against legislation he doesn’t want. He has done nothing about the legislation on the DoE.
People are policy. But as far as Tump caring, I doubt he cares abut Dept of Ed or frankly ANY department.
And she’s not going to bat for it either. So, not effectively winding it down. Shuffling the deck chairs.

The guy is very pro-army so he gets stuff (both true complaints and propaganda) fed to him. But AFAIK, he’s never put out anything butt-stupidly wrong before.
After the narration he does go into some detail about why the planes got shot down now (according to him: 1) US has been flying the same route, 2) US pilots habitually drop altitude when targeted by radar 3) Iranians noticed this, placed passively guided heat seeking missiles along the routes for when the planes would drop down into their range. )
Shades of Serbia/Kosovo and the loss of an F117 due to complacent mission planning if true.
I can see them getting complacent after having done so much damage to the enemy.
Then Hegseth needs to can that mission planner and reprimand the pilots for signing off on it.
Same route has always been downfall of any military action
Huh. I guess the Kurds finally figured out that the “later” part of “do this for us and we’ll help you out later” doesn’t come with any kind of certainty.
Finally? Everything I have heard from those who worked with the Kurds tells me they are quite expert at looking out for the Kurds while pretending to help.
I’ve never med one — there aren’t many Kurds out my way.
Did you have to strain for that NA?
Less surprisingly, the USIC hasn’t learned the lesson that if you give money to indigs without having embedded personnel, the indigs spend the money on themselves and lie about it.
Spending money is the only govt incentive/reward. Results are optional.
In order to be convicted of a war cirme, you first have to lose the war.
Or the election to a traitor who puts you on trial.
I’m not sure who is in charge of that, but I don’t see Congress being willing to open that door. Too much risk, no reward.
A special tribunal of Hawaiian Judges who’ll rule the ‘right’ way in every motion.
I’m sure you can find enough judges in NY.
It helps if it is an actual war crime.
That’s optional.
If I’m Trump, by Jan 20, 2029 I’ve already debarked my private jet at the airport nearest my new home in a non-extraditing country.
Assuming he’s alive and was not removed from office.
Yeah, I assume that if democrats win the house it’ll be 2 years of impeachment theater.
Again.
I don’t believe they can win enough of the senate, assuming they can win the senate at all, to get a supermajority in order to convict and remove him. That democrats could get the requisite number of republicans to cover a supermajority and vote for conviction is remote, but possible.
I DO envision, if republicans somehow hold both chambers, which is certainly possible, that the real crazies will once again rear their ugly heads and try to assassinate him.
Again.
I’m starting to lean toward they should impeach him.
Just because Biden should’ve been removed and wasn’t, shouldn’t be a barrier.
On what grounds?
This is the time of year where it’s snowing , and the 33 degree temperatures feel legitimately warm. Metabolism/acclimatization is a funny thing.
It’s the Neanderthal genes activating.
When I moved to Boston from Richmond, my first fall I noticed I was one of a few people wearing a heavy coat when it cooled off. The next fall I noticed there were a few people wearing heavy coats when it wasn’t really that cold.
“Immigration policy has taken center-stage in national politics, as DHS continues on a nearly two-month long shutdown. Democrats have refused to come to the negotiating table, and have claimed that they will only fund the department if Congress agrees to essentially end the deportation of illegal immigrants by requiring a judicial warrant and forbid ICE from operating at polling places to protect their illegal immigrant voters.”
With mail in ballots and electronic voting machines, having illegal immigrants vote in person seems unnecessary.
Here’s my counter-offer – Illegal entry become a death penalty offense with the only defense being proof of legal status. Voter fraud becomes a death penalty offense. Only citizens count for apportionment. Every politican complaining about rich people must give up 100% of their assets and live in a prison (general population) to reflect the commietopia they are advocating.
The last thing you want is illegals voting in person. You just want them registered, which generates ballots that can be filled out correctly in job lots.
The MSM must be burying the frequent stories of illegals murdering citizens that the “dissident” media highlights because who in their right mind is voting for that?!
This entire line of thought is fucking retarded. We just elected a President to get rid of illegals, and Democrats are basically wanting to stop all deportations, and are inflicting pain on that desire. Trump is right to not listen to that shit.
Their usual dirty tricks aren’t working anymore and this is their last resort I guess. It’s pretty fucking sick but it might actually work.
I don’t think it’ll work.
Trump and Team Red have their work cut out for them, but Democrats are even less popular. Everyone except the democrat base are seeing right through this bullshit.
Fuck your “judicial warrant” for detaining and deporting illegals, and fuck illegals at voting places.
Most of them aren’t nearly as hot as you are thinking.

OFFS!
People complain pr0n is unrealistic now.
Having sex with your stepsister represents your reality?
My parents were married for life tyvm.
Back in high school in the 80s, some girl in my theater class was banging her step-brother, so it is a thing, apparently.
Above a certain age, the Westermarck Effect no longer kicks in.
I knew a guy in HS who banged his step sister too.
She was hot. I’d probably have banged her too.
The pics, at least, are obvious AI. Not “too many fingers” obvious, but the lighting, mainly, and just overall too idealized.
This, I do not like. Because AI isn’t making things up, it’s being trained on humans’ work, and when they mass produce music like this, they don’t have to pay royalties to a musician.
Unfortunately most people don’t don’t care. They just want a steady stream of “content”. Mrs. TOK and I are constantly frustrated by friends and family who are angry about data centers going up in the neighborhood, yet you go to their Facebook feeds and it’s all stupid AI-generated videos. They don’t put those two things together.
How different is it, really, from K-pop? Menudo? The Backstreet Boys?
However terrible, those things are made by people.
I don’t know why the thought suddenly came to me, but the shrink ray in “Honey I Shrunk the Kids” explicitly does not change the mass of object, it merely alters the amount of empty space in them. Those kids should still weigh 80-150 pounds and would have sunk like driven nails into the wood of the attic floor.
In the old TSR Marvel Superheroes RPG, they explicitly have three different shrinking/embiggening methods:
1. Atoms get added/subtracted. This puts a lower limit on how small you can get.
2. The space between the atoms increases/decreases. This has a significant disadvantage as a character becomes less dense.
3. The atoms themselves get bigger/smaller. This lets you enter alternate dimensions/quantum states but also makes it so you can’t breathe normal-sized air.
I am reminded of the psuedo-scientific gobbledegook that pulp writers (Burroughs, et al) used to try justify the marvelous technology in their stories.
I wish I could just go in with handwavium technobabble, but no, I’ve got to sit down and work out as much as I can to explain it all.
You can’t science your way to an effective Antman. If you choose to reduce size while keeping mass you end up with a 200 lb. ant that can’t move, and if you manage to get him mobile he clumps around cracking things he steps on. If you reduce mass he hits like an ant and is useful only as a highly vulnerable spy. You have to magic him so he has mass only when mass is needed, can shrink to subatomic size when you want him to pass through objects etc.
Man arrested after demanding $55 in gas, refusing to pay in Orange County
Which one of you was this?
Even if money isn’t real – you have to provide something the gas station will accept in exchange for the gas. Otherwise that’s just theft.
Not if you also believe gas isn’t real.
The Buddha arguing with the police after stealing gasoline would be a good scene in a great movie.
If gas isn’t real he can leave without the imaginary substance and won’t be required to pay imaginary money for it.
Money is just like an idea, man.

“The mom accused of fatally strangling her three kids with an exercise band and paralyzing herself in a suicide bid says she’d cop to her heinous crime — as part of a move that could keep her out of prison.
Lindsay Clancy, a 35-year-old former nurse from Duxbury, Mass., is pushing for two trials: one in which she would not contest her crime and the other to determine if she was sane at the time of the slayings.

Wouldn’t that be something….
Want to be a “sanctuary city”? Okay. How about “no international travelers will be allowed to clear customs in those cities”?
There would be no stomach for such a move because Americans would get caught up even more than travelers on a visa, but that would be something to see.
Which means regular international business travelers will fly into red states and fly domestic back to the coasts.
Nobody is going to be happy about that given what it will do to air travel. But it would be fun to watch.
Even still….
Many (most?) red state airports large enough to process the biggest chunk of international travelers are in blue cities.
And which of those cities are “sanctuaries” even in “red” states?

Am I misremembering? I thought the original pitch for the alt-razor companies waa that fancy multiblade cartridges were ripoffs that didn’t work any better than an old double-sided safety razor.
https://www.usharrrys.com/p/harrys-plus-handle-2/
They don’t work any better, but they do sell better.
Depends on your skin. I use them because multi blade razors almost fully eliminate razor bumps.
I’ve been using a DE safety razor for many years. I’ve had way less skin irritation (next to zero) than I did with the multi bladed ones (often).
I switched to DE razors for a period of time. But when I started shaving my head I switched back to cartridges. I tried the DE on my head but would often take large slices of my scalp. People online swear you can do it, but I gave up on fighting that learning curve.
Remind me of that endless “skull shaver” ad running at night on MeTV.

I like the Twig because the blade is set at a fixed angle, so it’s easier to prevent your face from getting chopped up.

Literally identical takes that I was reading by RadFems in the ’90s. Radical Feminism is a coherent and defined phlopophy at least.
Except…
They all agreed that explicitly phallic devices were not to be used for masturbation, but were split on whether any penetrative stimulus was acceptable. Those on the more liberal side of things would by dolphin-shaped toys and the like.
They don’t have issues associating with dolphin rape?
Yeah. I mean, why not resist the single shape that evolved over hundreds of thousands of years for the single job of penetrating a vagina?
If they’re really dedicated to this, they need to be shoving square or star shaped blocks into their pussies, not a slightly modified version of a dick.
They took their political lesbianism seriously.
Of course, they also bought into the then-current pop-cultural ideas about how women were superior which lead to various conflicts about how to become the life-giving mother.
It wasn’t that their logic was necessarily bad, just that their premises were… particularly defined.
You’re clearly not up to speed on the latest in fantasy dildo designs…
OK,
“There’s something Israeli about women with prostates are vocally defending anal sex” IS in fact a new take. It is still possible to comingle sex and politics in uniquely retarded ways.

At least they’re linking acrylamides to bread now. When the panic first came out, they only linked it to French fries and potato chips.
Nobel Prize for medicine!
“Social media posts and group chats show members of so-called active clubs from Texas, Tennessee and Pennsylvania have in recent weeks and months travelled to Lynchburg, Virginia to train together at a secretive compound. The compound is run by the Wolves of Vinland, which the civil rights watchdog the Southern Poverty Law Center identifies as a neopagan white nationalist hate group. Also present were members of the white supremacist hate group Patriot Front and the neo-Nazi skinhead group known as the Hammerskins.”

who knows?
Everyone knows the SPLC are liars.
Hasn’t the SPLC already declared even driving through Lynchburg makes you a member of a hate group?
The Rules Of Modern American Politics
1. If you want to know what the left is doing, or planning on doing, look at what the left accuses the right of doing, or planning on doing.
Wasn’t Patriot Front the khakis and polo shirts FBI inspired group?
I wouldn’t doubt this, and I also wouldn’t doubt that there are similar groups advocating the supremacism of every other ethnic group, religion, skin tone, and whatnot. Everyone is already well aware of several such even as they rarely get MSM news coverage.
“The Obama Presidential Library is making people show an ID for proof of Illinois residency to get in for free,” another posted. “So residents have to prove who they are for this, but not to vote?”

The same people against voter ID were for vaccine passports.
Benefits for residents with documentation and excluding others? I identify as an undocumented IL resident for the purpose of admission only.
Terrorists bombed a synagogue.

I assume this is to point out some wrongdoing by the US?
That was my first thought too, but in this one they’re blaming Israel.
My first thought is we have no idea who this poster is or where or when the pic was taken.
My first thought too.
Drake’s not in the habit of posting about actual terror attacks on the Joos. But I don’t think he’s gone full groyper yet.
Give it a rest. we get it, Iran is a peaceful paradise and the Zionists and their shabbos goy Trump are vile in every way and it would be wonderful if we took massive casualties forcing us to withdraw with our tail between our legs, because otherwise we might lose American lives fighting Israel’s war, oh wait…
Israel can’t be responsible: they lost all their soldiers storming the beaches of Yemen.
“Two teachers — including the older sister of “Baywatch” star Noah Beck — are accused of sexual misconduct with the same teenage student at their Arizona high school, according to officials.
The actor’s 27-year-old sister Haley Beck has now been fired over previously revealed accusations that she groomed and then had sex with the student — even paying him in what she allegedly admitted in messages “felt like straight prostitution,” according to KBTX .
Another teacher at the same school, Angela Burlaka, 47, has also resigned from her job of 25 years after she allegedly sent the same boy a video of her saying his name while naked, according to a nearly 200-page police report obtained by the outlet…
No arrests have been made, but detectives believe there is enough evidence to bring charges. The investigation is still ongoing and there could be more victims, police said.”

No word on a three-way.
“A Tennessee school board member sparked disgust by creepily telling a student at a meeting that she was hot — and asking where she went to school.
Washington County official Keith Ervin initially triggering nervous laughter Thursday as he put his arm around the senior who also spoke at the livestreamed meeting.
“God you’re hot, you know that?” he told the girl as he sidled up right next to her.”
https://nypost.com/2026/04/07/us-news/creepy-school-board-member-tells-student-god-youre-hot/
School board meetings are public, you can post her pic.
Not only is a teacher banging their student wrong, but you have to be a downright idiot for even thinking that you won’t be found out and have your life ruined.
I remember my senior year of college; I was at an acquaintance apartment party and was hammered. Was talking to this cute girl and making out or whatever. Anyway, we started talking and I asked her where she was from and it suspiciously sounded like she was in high school. One of my friends suddenly came by and was like, we got to get the fuck out of here, there are high schoolers at this party. I got up and left, and we had to grab a buddy of mine and drag him out the party.
I was a drunk and horny 21 year old and I still had the common sense and decently to not cross the line.
I’m a Luddite, and I VOTE
The vote in Port Washington, a lakeside town of roughly 12,000 people just north of Milwaukee, appears to be the first time any U.S. municipality will go to the ballot to kneecap data center development. It marks an aggressive new tactic in an escalating movement to oppose the hulking artificial intelligence factories — and offers a potential blueprint for other small towns challenging Big Tech.
“I’m not aware of another ballot referendum that has been taken directly to the voters yet,” said Brad Tietz, state policy director for the Data Center Coalition, which represents tech companies and developers. “If this trend continues and grows, it’s going to have significant consequences for our economic competitiveness [and] our national security. I don’t think that can be understated.”
The vote comes as companies descend on Middle America to build the data centers, which are major priorities for the White House and the U.S. tech sector but the object of scorn for roughly 3 in 10 U.S. voters who, according to a recent POLITICO poll, say they would oppose a facility being built in their area. At least three other U.S. cities are gearing up for referendums of their own this year, in a growing trend that pits grassroots organizers against some of the world’s richest companies.
Would they rather have a paper mill, or a steel foundry, or a slaughterhouse? of course not. They want a Norman Rockwell fantasy world with a magician pulling amazing technology out of a magic top hat.
I love how they frame this as “RESISTING TRUMP”. Nice little sleight of hand, to piggyback on something someone is already against.
As I said earlier, if they don’t want data centers, maybe they should stop creating and sharing stupid AI shit on Facebook.
From wiki
Also, 95+% white.
I’m not sure I get why the left is so against these things. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
They’re shooting one down in my town, and they’re shooting down a chip fab north of here too. I just chalk it down to them being anti-business of any kind in general.
(They also hate all residential construction that isn’t “affordable” and all retail construction that is “chain” e.g.)
“None of us are specifically anti-development,” said Carri Prom, a former nurse practitioner and mom of three who co-founded the nonprofit Great Lakes Neighbors United late last year to resist the Port Washington project. “We’re not even really anti-tech. It’s just that we want responsible development, and we want responsible tech moving forward.”
Responsible development. They know it when they see it.
Put Section 8 housing next to her house.
lol Bullshit.
