STEVE SMITH PENIS FAUCI
That is a light sentence.. He needs to be trained by all the SMITHS!
OK, but the feds couldn’t pass the SAVE act.
The old republican party wants things to go back to normal once Trump is gone. They will just let the democrats wreck it all while pretending to play spoiler. Stopping the cheating would be the end of the uniparty and its agenda.
A far-left judge blathering about “privacy” is fucking rich.
Oh, it’s because there is a looming threat to her Party’s cheating.
Twist any reality to allow them to keep pursuing and abusing power.. Cause they fight for a bureaucratic and corrupt system they claim is a democracy.
Isn’t it funny how after Ohio and Florida changed their election laws they went from battleground states to Republican ones?
When cheating and proving the cheating becomes difficult, democrats no longer win elections.
They’ve always had contempt for ActBlue.
They have had contempt for the fact ActBlue was a crooked entity. when I reported they had used my name to filter close to $10k to team blue and I never had given a penny politically, the entry disappeared a few days later, and I got told there was no case to follow…. Every blue state government was in on it.
Given that impeachment has proven to not be a check on the abuse of power due to the culture developed among those expected to exercise the authority – what mechanism would be appropriate to replace it for the removal of rogue jurists?
Guillotine?
And that wouldn’t violate the lifetime appointment clause!
Government accountability necessarily must come from outside the government.
There are four boxes…

Indeed, JI. Northern Ireland is uniquely positioned for “kinetic” resistance. Most of the rest of the world is not, including the US. By the time the vast, vast majority of people are prepared to take effective action, they will already be in the camps.
There won’t be camps. You’ll be locked into your own home, and the worst that will happen is your internet access removed.
To summarize: it’s way easier to reactivate dormant operational cells, versus building brand new ones.
LOL bring it on
/every leftist state that does not give a shit about either of those things
You’re assuming those funds don’t already get diverted elsewhere.
Yeah, true.
You would think measures would be put in place to prevent… LOL almost got it out.
Europeans Visiting U.S. for World Cup Fall in Love with America: ‘The Most Wonderful People in the World’
Vox: “The World Cup is showing what Trump can’t destroy about America”
Yeah, it is showing the are libs refer to as “flyover America” and which they always talk about with disdain… Now they suddenly love it so they can use it to denigrate Trump. Man, I want to live rent free in the heads of morons like Trump does…
Buc-ee’s, Bass Pro Shops, Walmart, Waffle House, Chick-fil-A, BBQ, free refills and ice water … everything the left celebrates …
Flyover people are wonderful, but just ignorant and misguided.
If we just prog harder and explain they’ll jump right on transitioning preschoolers.
Fortunately Flyover Country is still alive and well here and that’s the way we like it, uh-huh, uh-huh
RoaT:
That’s the part that’s entertaining me the most. They’re loving our trash choices. Imagine if someone starts taking them to the local places instead of the chains.
I’ve seen videos of Euros going to diners and dives and loving it. I haven’t seen videos of Euros going to Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, or vegan restaurants.
All of Europe is basically “local places” and they love the consistency, generosity, and extravagance of the chains. It is something that really doesn’t exist over there.
Some Euro was showing off his new tat of the WalMart asterisk.
The Atlantic wrote that the “Euros loving the US” ticky-tocks are an astroturf campaign.
It is getting wall-to-wall news coverage. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It’s the only reasonable explanation. Everyone knows the US is inferior to Europe.
Unlike of course everything Soros has ever done!
Unfortunately, there are GOP political content creators latching onto the trend.
Keep your filthy corrupting politics away from Joy you satanic vermin!
Even they had to admit that some of the stories were true.
I can provide some anecdata – the Scots fookin loved Boston. That was in no way astroturfed. Looks like they’re having a ball in Miamai, too.
I saw the same behavior from Englishmen during a visit to Red Bull Arena.
Narrator: They were shit-faced to a person.
They were shit-faced because booze is so cheap over here. Many parts of Europe have incredibly high taxes on liquor, some as high as 100%, like Iceland.
“Something Weird Keeps Happening Now That Trump Neutered USAID”
Interesting how the left’s massive funding advantage keeps shrinking every time some fraudulent government program, especially the social ones, get shut down, huh?
The left is not fighting Trump because he is a fascist and his followers nazis. No, they are fighting him stopping the massive grift of government that has straddled the country with $40 trillion of debt and has allowed people tat add absolutely no value at all to become rich fleecing the productive.
The left is nothing but a cabal of crime syndicates. And they want people to hate anyone that gets in the way of their criminal activities.
““USAID spent millions propping up the Marxist ideology of ‘diversity, equity, and inclusion;’”
No idea how DEI is Marxist.
Class* identity >> Individual identity + government control of employment job/benefit allocation based on that class identity
*generic class, not economic class.
DEI may not be a ideology that lines up well with classical Marxism, but the Marxists themselves definitely developed and pushed it as the way to crack open American society, since (economic) class conflict wasn’t working. Race was the fault line they needed for that project.
This, pretty much. DEI is not a Marxist ideology, rather a group of Marxist intellectuals invented DEI as a means to bring about a communist takeover of western institutions.
It really isn’t even communism post-Frankfurt, it is better characterized as absolute nihilism.
ji:
Yup, class struggle with “race” replacing economic “class”.
^^^this
It might better be thought of as Modern Marxist (i.e. Frankfurt School), since dialectical materialism was dismissed by them as vulgar.
“No idea how DEI is Marxist.”
In a country where you have free upward mobility and class envy has not been enough, you shift the focus to race. DEI is simply a marxist move to race so they can foist the cultural marxist revolution based on that manufactured anger.
It is nothing but a game about power, and everything is a lie in the pursuit of power.
I see JI has read and believes Foucault.
I have repeatedly pointed out that marxism was an invented ideology that new feudal lords hoped to use to replace the current ones with themselves using the envy/jealousy of the masses. And since the new marxist feudal lords know how easy it is to use the masses to get rid of the old ones, they create a police state and line all the useful idiots that helped them take power up to make sure that play doesn’t get done to them.
Yes, it is about power, and using it to live large & in charge on the wealth created by your betters.
I see JI has read and believes Foucault.
Wrong and wronger. Though I do believe that is what the modern left is all about.
…by your betters.
Now that is an interesting choice of words.
“Now that is an interesting choice of words.”
There are producers and useless consumers…
You make of that what you want. Just cause it is not popular to say so, doesn’t make it not true…
Well, I’d certainly agree there are productive and parasites. The point of which is the better in relation to the other is all about social jockeying.
“FBI captures $1.2B Medicare fraud fugitive in Philippines, second arrest from Most Wanted Fraudsters list”
When are we going to start arresting the government employees that knew this was happening but turned a blind eye to it cause there were kickbakcs/benefits to the crooks that made a living fleecing the productive tax payers?

General Atomics-made Reaper, the MQ-9B SkyGuardian, costs about $30 million.
Of course it does. JFC. There is no price given in the article on the expected unit cost of the pork filled stealth drone mentioned in the article. If we aren’t going to have a pilot we darn well are going to have cost the same!

Why do you fear the Reaper?
Because it needs more cowbell.
I swear, every time I read “General Atomics” I immediately think of Patrick Stewart yelling “Atomics!” in Dune.

My current working thesis is that the dysfunctional government in this country cannot be solved by any kind of reform.
Change my mind.
The Feds will only be fixed by collapse. Debt line go up!
Some state governments might be salvageable.
That’s the time a break up could come.
Agreed. The patient is covered in tumors inside and out. It’s not something you can just cut out.
Change my mind.
Not even going to try.
When you have people on our side (bro overnight) arguing that the application of the law in the SNAP decision was the correct application of the law – a point I don’t at all concede since there are clearly things that are allowed on SNAP and things that are not, lists even. I’m pretty sure congress didn’t spell it out to the level the agency has implemented it, so there’s clearly agency discretion.
When there is a two tier justice system that only ever makes the ‘correct’ ruling in one direction, an asymmetry in the application of law, and the normally admirable quality of consistency and principle is turned into a weapon against freedom – and we can only tut-tut and rant when incorrect application of the law inevitably leads to less individual autonomy and more state power, looking at you Roberts penal-tax – you’re not going to reform anything. Too much vested interest in maintaining power, influence and financial gain and too much lack of will to say I’m not going to let my ‘principles’ be ‘corrupted’ by you to forge the very chains you want to wrap me in.
Hint – our ‘principles’ have already been corrupted by the very existence of SNAP, let alone its abuse and exploitation for political and financial gain. Your argument about the correct application of the law ensconced in a system that doesn’t give a rats patootie about the rule of the law, freedom, or justice doesn’t reflect any sort of principle, only a willingness to play a game that’s been totally rigged.
I have no hope for a clean slate with the humanity that now inhabits this country (and the worst of that is probably native born).
Nothing will change your (and anyone here who is swallowing black pills by the container load) mind, but I do, and I believe we have already started on that road.
Look at the Soviet Union. No one thought that would change, and yet it happened, almost overnight. Now, they never had democracy, so it is natural that they went back to a strong man which, according to some is a natural Russian fall back, but, here in the states, we do have a strong tradition of democracy and we will level out and find our equilibrium, which will not be to the liking of many/most here at Glibs World Headquarters. But, that is democracy in a nutshell.
/signed White Pill
There is all the difference in the world between change and improve. No pills necessary, unless you simply want to snuff out your senses.
signed White Pill
Is that you Malice?
strong tradition of democracy … that’s democracy in a nutshell
It needn’t be said – but I’ll say it anyway – we are not a democracy and I don’t want a democracy. I want a republic with a representative democracy. A democracy leads to that asymmetric application of the rule of law when applied to a large, largely disconnected, society.
The Soviet Union fell because it was bankrupt and, not unimportantly, had an adversary advocating for, at least on the surface, a free nation of individual sovereigns. We have no such external beacon and have created such vast amounts of wealth that it will be some time before the bankruptcy progresses to the point the host collapses and the parasites slough off and die.
White pill on the timescale of decades? Century? Sure. On the time scale of my life or my (non-existent) children’s lives? Not so much. It’s a shame what several generations will likely have to live through to get to the re-birth/realization of the American ideal. An abstracted white pill is no substitute for an extant one I guess; depends on your time horizon.
The Soviet Union fell because it was bankrupt and, not unimportantly, had an adversary advocating for, at least on the surface, a free nation of individual sovereigns.
Where is this magical free nation of individual sovereigns (who all make and enforce their own law)?
Chile
Just kidding. It’s their close neighbor, Argentina, which in the span of just a few years has cut red tape and changed entrenched attitudes about the role of government.
USAID eventually ceased independent operations and was effectively absorbed under the State Department. Secretary of State Marco Rubio oversaw the cancellation of approximately 83 percent of USAID programs, which were worth tens of billions of dollars.
So the State Department is using the remaining programs to influence elections in South America? Same as it ever was?
Of course the programs may have been canceled, but the money still got spent.
Seriously, there is no economic “natural” alternative for brown coloring in food? That would not have been the color I picked.

While a lot of things have a brown coloration they would also alter the flavor, and not bind as a colorant.
Right? I’d think you could get some brown coloration from chocolate at a minimum, and if it adds some flavor… is more chocolate flavor a problem?
You would change the composition of the outer shell, which is formed largely from solid sugar and likely leave stains on adjacent candies.

Actual WP Headline: A dead duck was seen in the Reflecting Pool. Then two more were found nearby.
Would that they had been Hate Birds®! Take that, Canada!
A dead duck was seen in the Reflecting Pool.
What! Now the losing candidates have their own wading pool? On the tax payer dime? My, my, what a wonderful country we live in.
Creatures tend to leave their corpses where they die. waterfowl are drawn to water. finding dead waterfowl near water means nothing until and unless a necropsy shows something unnatural about the circumstances of the death. I’d wager they found thousands of dead ducks around that pool since it opened.
Won’t be there very long. Scavengers of all sorts will be on them, they would be cleaned up naturally, if left alone.
The same is true of road kill, but we still send out crews to clean it up to reduce the smell.
Tends to happen when you poison the water enough to cause paint to peel.
Pish tosh! Obviously any poison was put there by OMB in a vain attempt to hide his humiliation at making algae grow!

“Left-leaning website Wikipedia took the drastic action of blocking one of its founders from editing pages on Monday — after he had campaigned to make it more balanced and fair.
Last month, Larry Sanger launched WikiProject Intellectual Diversity (WID), a group designed to help reinforce the online encyclopedia’s “original, firm commitment to intellectual diversity,” by emphasizing neutrality and transparency.
However, Sanger — who coined the name “Wikipedia,” drafted the site’s foundational set of rules and guidelines, and launched the site alongside Jimmy Wales in 2001 — was indefinitely blocked from editing, the most drastic action the site can take against an editor.”

“Eventually, infant pressures were replaced by toddler demands; she still felt isolated and yearned for support even more. Before pregnancy and breastfeeding, Mitchem told me, she sometimes turned to weed to feel more balanced when she struggled with anxiety and ADHD. So by the time her kid was two and a half, she decided to resume her old morning ritual: She began to smoke daily—“gardening,” as she calls it. Parenting, she said, became less stressful. “Life is hard,” she said. “If you can have something that can take the edge off a little bit, why not?”
Mitchem, a 36-year-old based in Colorado, now calls herself a “garden momma.” She posts about her cannabis routine to more than 120,000 followers on TikTok, where more than 76,000 videos feature the “#gardenmom” label. “Coffee and coughy,” a morning ritual of smoking before the children wake up, is a common genre; other videos show moms using cannabis during nap time or before the dinner-bath-bedtime witching hour. For some, posting about the lifestyle has led to influencer status and brand partnerships; many garden moms use the same Millennial-chic glass gravity bongs, sharing discount codes and #ad hashtags. As these women frame it, cannabis is not escape but preparation, the “medicine” they need to take before their work as mothers begins.”

For anybody with an interest The Economist has super long read on the actual animation part of Japanese anime.
The strange disappearance of Japan’s animators – https://archive.fo/aPMAr#selection-1071.0-1071.46
None of it is new, but its interesting to read how the (classically liberal LOL) Economist writes it. TLDR – The industry is brutal, low pay and done mostly by contract work. It’s also being done offshore elsewhere in Asia. But there is generally a group of fans and young people that the studios know they can exploit to produce the art at very cheap rates.
It’s not a job you hope for your child.
If only all the little anime avatars on Twitter knew about the brutal working conditions that produced their favorite hentai. Surely they’d stop fapping long enough to do something.

“You cannot make very complex policies and then say we’re going to simplify. It’s a lot better if you do the right policy in the first place,” Christophe Fouquet, CEO of Dutch chips giant ASML, told reporters in Brussels on Monday, echoing a message he gave in an exclusive interview with POLITICO last month.

“Dutch chips”
Are they doused in mayo?
It’s like regular chips, but you’re expected to provide your own potatoes, salt, and fryer.
And in typical MSM fashion not really correct.
They make the industry leading machines for lithography for production of “chips”, but they don’t make chips directly.
ASML don’t make chips.
Great minds and all…
Our Fab in VT makes excellent chips in their cafeteria. Potato, not corn.
So, they don’t make good chips in the fab part of the facility?
If there was actual money on the line and definitions involved, I’d say they’re not a chips giant, but I would also suspect they’ve got a small-scale full-flow fab somewhere if for no other reason than to troubleshoot their litho gear.
You would think. Plus R&D uses.

Threads about how AI will affect the economy now pepper r/electricians, a subreddit with around half a million monthly visitors. Some users wonder whether the work will eventually prompt widespread job losses. Others aren’t sure if their labor makes them complicit in the damage done to local communities or whether it’s unethical to take on data center work. For some, the answer is a firm no. Ultimately, they argue, work is work.
Yes, this is completely consistent with every electrician I’ve ever spoken with. They only undertake work based on how it will impact the planet and future employment prospects of the profession. Exactly what I expect from most people in skilled trades.
