    Where the white womenz at?

    • UnCivilServant

      Listen for the screaming protest and you’ll find some. Though not the best of them.

      • AlexinCT

        Those are the women you avoid…

        Colored hair, nose piercings, fugly tattoos, and enough mass to have their own gravity combined with severe mental disorder is not a good thing.

      • Threedoor

        Don’t forget the student loans they would expect you to pay.

    FBI secretly seizes election records from Arizona’s largest county as voting probe expands

    Was that supposed to be a secret? I thought they’ve been after them for a while now.

    • AlexinCT

      They need to make it sound like the FBI is the bad guy under Trump, so when they show us how the US government in toto was involved in rigging the 2020 election in particular, and also tried but failed in 2016 and 2024, they can claim the problem is Trump’s FBI. God forbid Americans find out that when Obama told us he was fundamentally going to change the country, he meant into a fucking evil marxist shithole where government was weaponized against any citizen that didn’t bend the knee t the marxist globalist agenda.

      • SDF-7

        I don’t think you can blame the FBI investigating political foes of the Deep State on Obama… that goes back to Hoover.

        (For pretty much the entire Intel industry, in my opinion… we’d be much better off starting from scratch with ones just in the military and focused solely on actual military intel, none of this Five Eyes crap… pretty easy for them to jump to “We need to steer society” when they start with “Watch for what we think will harm society” after all).

        [all of the assholes behind the Patriot Act] “nothing to see here, move along”

    • R C Dean

      “Secretly”. *eyeroll* It was in the news, the legacy DemOp news, even, when they served the warrant.

      • Ownbestenemy

        Bout as secret as Area 51.

    Trump Says Iran War Is Nearly Complete

    Are all their goat fucking mullahs dead? If not, we are not even close to being done..

    • Drake

      Trump’s going to declare victory and give up.

      Hey – it took us 20 to replace the Taliban with the Taliban on Afghanistan. It only took Trump a few weeks to replace Khamenei with Khamenei.

      • AlexinCT

        So you went from claiming it would be WW3 and the end of civilization to this shit?

    • rhywun

      Hopefully “regime change” is just a stretch goal.

      I believe the real goal is some combination of “stop perpetrating and funding terrorism” and “mess with China”.

      • Drake

        The goalposts have moved so many times I lost track.

        My favorite: “America must fight a war in Iran because “radical Islamists” won’t let girls go to school.”

        Said unironically right after we blew up a girls’ school.

        https://x.com/i/status/2030034995201335776

      • AlexinCT

        The real goal is to destroy the CCP strategy of using Iran in the ME to keep American forces away from the Pacific.

      • UnCivilServant

        “we”?

        It is not currently clear whose ordinance hit that building. The immediate inflation of the numbers of people involved and distribution of reused propaganda images from other conflicts only muddies the waters further.

        Is it possible we missed the actual target on the same military base? Yes
        Is it possible a shitty Iranian Missile lost thrust and fell short? Yes
        Is it possible someone Intentionally targetted the site? It’d only benefit the Iranians to do so, but they have been known to send children into minefields to clear them by detonating the mines, so I wouldn’t put it past them.

        I want more data before assigning fault. I’m still inclined towards “accident” unless shown otherwise.

      • Drake

        There’s literally a photo of the 2nd tomahawk about to hit the school. Even Trump admitted it was a tomahawk, but said it might be an Iranian one (of course they don’t have any). Maybe just admit the mistake and apologize.

      • AlexinCT

        That story about a Tomahawk hitting the schools is not just already proven fake, but the missile in question was identified as a KH-55, an Iranian copy of a Russian cruise missile, that had suffered some kind of malfunction, but for some reason people still keep promoting that ludicrous incident as if it matters. War sucks. there is always collateral damage. But it is telling how some people focus on this shit while completely ignoring the massive amount of murdering by this regime in the last 47 years..

      • AlexinCT

        And this is the same regime that put out a video of Soyuz rocket being used to hit the Yamato battleship and then claimed it was one of their missiles hitting a US Navy ship… It is all bullshit as usual, and the same people with the same bias keep acting as if this shit is legit.

      • WTF

        Gee, I wonder why Iran would place a military facility right next to a girl’s school. Sure is a mystery.

      • Drake

        How many schools do we have on our military bases? Of course those schools would be evacuated during a war, unless it was a sneak attack…

      • Ownbestenemy

        WTF
        WE do the same on our bases.

        Holloman Elementary on base wasn’t far from squadron headquarter and the airfield itself…

    • DrOtto

      Where is Rumsfeld’s old ‘Mission Accomplished’ banner when we need it?

      • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

        Right next to the Peace In Our Time papers, being kept watch over by Top. Men.

    • Suthenboy

      I don’t care about the goats. It is the babies that get me angry

    Trump targeted by four FBI code-named counterintel probes that ensnared hundreds of Americans

    And nothing else happened.

    • R C Dean

      They’ve fired some of the agents involved.

      Not as good as jailing or executing them, but it’s better than nothing.

    Budget deficit hits $1 trillion in first five months of fiscal year

    That Witcher clip is on repeat in my head now.

    • Fourscore

      It’s Biden’s fault for making promises that Trump has to borrow (print) to solve.

      It’s the war, man, you can’t have freedom and austerity, not when there’s still checks in the check book.

      The tariffs will have to be increased to cover the shortfall.

      • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

        The tariffs will increase until morale improves.

    • Drake

      Wait till the accounting for this war is done. Watching half billion dollar radars blown up by lawnmower drones hurts my wallet.

      • Sensei

        Better there than the same dollars evaporating in Ukraine.

      • AlexinCT

        It will still, as of this time, be cheaper than just the Somali fraud in Minnesoda we so far know of. That leaves a lot of room for other fraudulent government spending – especially to pay off illegals in order to buy them to vote team blue – that could be added as we go on. Talk to me when the effort to end this 47 year old war permanently starts costing us around $2 trillion a year, which is what I am now certain all the fraud and quasi-fraud (NGOs and political money shuffling in social programs) cost us each year.

    Trump Presses Republicans for Voting Limits Ahead of Midterms

    Mark me down for “this won’t happen” and “clear your calendars for the next two years of non-stop impeachment theater”.

    But you know, I would settle for Congress passing a law that applies the same voting security that we demand of other “democracies” before labeling their elections as “crooked”.

    • (((Jarflax

      Thune is carrying on McConnel’s legacy

      • Drake

        Republicans crave defeat. Already writing their concession speeches.

      • juris imprudent

        “Governing is hard” /Barbie and Republican leaders

    • R C Dean

      The Congressional Republicans are so utterly useless I honestly don’t care if they lose the midterms. As far as I can tell, the only difference will be that the hysterical drama and palace intrigue coming out of DC will have a different flavor.

      • WTF

        Right there with you. The Republicans are such worthless shits I don’t even care about the midterms.

      • Drake

        I have to get registered as a Republican so I can vote against Lindsey Graham in the primary. If Graham wins the primary, I cannot imagine bothering to vote in November.

      • juris imprudent

        Enjoy your free day in November Drake.

    • R C Dean

      Oh, and gotta love the “voting limits” framing there. Not “election security”, oh no. This is all about keeping the darkies (and the wimmenz) out of the voting booths.

      • rhywun

        Yeah, the messaging from every media outlet that isn’t specifically “conservative” or “right-wing” is transparent bullshit.

        That said, “Trump wants Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., to revise it to add bans on transgender women in women’s sports and transgender surgery for children, arguing that it will make it easier to pass Congress” is proof to me that Donald is not serious about any of this. He is full of shit, too.

    Thanks for the links, Banjos!

    The oysters link was a real bit of sunshine.

    • Ownbestenemy

      Indeed and good on the establishment not just claiming it was a joke sign.

      • Threedoor

        12 whole free oysters.

    • Fourscore

      I’m still outside, looking through the window, wishing.

    That oyster story is great, and if you’re ever in Mobile they have the best catfish I’ve ever had.

    Every time I go there, I get 6 oysters for an appetizer and after my meal, I say “let me get 6 more for dessert”.

    My wife likes to pretend that’s not funny, but I know she knows it is.

    • R.J.

      Accuses? I thought Beretta was open about it.

    • juris imprudent

      If Beretta would stop them from engraving safety warnings into their firearms I’m all for the takeover.

      • Suthenboy

        I repeat: the articulated minnows I buy with two treble hooks attached read “DO NOT EAT” on the back of the packages.

      • juris imprudent

        The problem with that warning Suthen is that the people that need it, aren’t likely to be able to read it.

    “But tonight, Jimmy Rush walked in on his 80th birthday with his father, James Rush, 99, right beside him, and turned one of Wintzell’s rarest traditions into a real-life milestone.”

    Carl said the family is already planning another run at the deal when he turns 80 in two years — when Jim would be 102.

    “We will be back to do this all over again October of 2028 when I turn 80,” Carl told the station. “My dad says he’s going to make it, so that’s good enough for me.”

    This is wholesome and heartwarming. I love it!

    • Ownbestenemy

      Tubed beef is an American right!

      Also, tends to be cheaper but you play guessing game on quality.

      • R.J.

        Agreed. That lady needs to get a life. What does she want, a styrofoam tray and one of those moisture liners? Those cost more and make more waste. She should be thanking is for being environmentally conscious.

    • AlexinCT

      Bitches love phallic meat?

    • WTF

      I have never seen, nor bought, ground beef like that.

      • Sensei

        I believe it’s regional in the US.

        Certainly not common in the stores we frequent.

      • R C Dean

        We’ve got some in our freezer.

        It’s from a quarter cow that we bought a few months ago.

      • Threedoor

        If it’s regional it’s here in the NW.

      • Evan from Evansville

        We have tons of beef like that in Walmart and every other major grocery in Indiana. Up to five pound rolls.

    • Ted S.

      Where is that? I don’t recall seeing ground beef like that in my local grocery store.

      • DrOtto

        HEB – Hill Country Fair is their private lable low end brand. You can still get it on a flat if you want to as well in the meat market.

      • Ownbestenemy

        Albertsons, Kroger, Mejier, Wal-Mart…

        It tends to be a store label product.

    • UnCivilServant

      It’s volumetrically efficient. Uses less packaging material.

      And I’m not sure where the other commenters are shopping that they’ve not seen it – unless they’re intentionally not seeing it.

      • Ownbestenemy

        If you only go to the meat case and no where else, you will never see it and it doesn’t exist!

      • WTF

        Stop n Shop, Shoprite, Stew Leonard’s – never seen it.

      • juris imprudent

        Local outfit has 5-8 pound clear plastic bags for their bulk offering.

      • slumbrew

        I’ve only seen it at the big-box stores – Costco & BJ’s.

        Just the 1 lb. bricks or trays otherwise.

    • rhywun

      I’ve never seen it in tubes but I’ve seen it in air-tight sealed bricks or cubes.

    • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

      It is just sausage with no spices, and in a casing that is not the best tasting, though if it is worse than a pigs asshole, that is up to you.

    • Threedoor

      I agree. No ground beef should be sold that not at least 30% fat.

    • Furthest Blue pistoffnick (370HSSV)

      Wait til you see the 20 lb. tubes of hamburger at Sam’s Club.

    • R.J.

      I thought everyone knew that already.

      • juris imprudent

        I believe the revelation is a Democrat coming to the truth. That is kinda shocking.

      • AlexinCT

      • WTF

        It’s a fine example of a Kinsley Gaffe.

      • rhywun

        the revelation is a Democrat coming to the truth

        Was it Time that published an article from a Democrat admitting that the 2020 election was stolen? I wonder what happened next.

      • Ted S.

        It wasn’t stolen, it was fortified.

    • EvilSheldon

      What’s your response?

      Still waiting for the congressional GOP to do something about it…

    • rhywun

      lol “shocking” 🙄

    • Suthenboy

      A revelation? To whom?

    • R.J.

      Hahaha.
      So what is wrong with it?

      • UnCivilServant

        It’s in San Fransisco.

      • WTF

        Who the hell would pay that kind of money for a tiny house in the shithole that SF has become?

    • Suthenboy

      Fuuuuuuck that. I would have to live in SF. You could not pay me to live there.

      • rhywun

        It has its charms if you’re a city boy like me but not at that price.

      • ron73440

        Come on, San Fransisco isn’t that bad.

        I saw a guy saying he had lived there 20 years and only stepped in human poop 6 times.

        I’ve stepped in poop a lot more than 6 times, but none of it was human. (I grew up on a dairy farm)

        Even in Iraq, I never saw human poop on the sidewalks.

      • rhywun

        I lived there for year and didn’t see any human poop.

        I don’t recall seeing any from 25 years of living in NYC, either. Bums everywhere, sure, but somehow they take better care of themselves than the broken messes you regularly see all over California these days.

      • UnCivilServant

        It isn’t typically in the sidewalks.

        The bums around here like parking garage elevators.

        The bums here are also playing homeless on hard mode (there are higher difficulty settings)

      • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

        I have had family and friends in that city for 175 years, and no one has mentioned stepping in poop.

        Portland, on the other hand…

      • Threedoor

        “Even in Iraq… on the sidewalks.”

        It was closer to the middle of the road.

    • rhywun

      Insane.

      That neighborhood is nothing special, either.

    • PieInTheSky

      well why don’t you get a timeshare in Pigeon Forge if San Fran aint up to your standards.

  10. Suthenboy

    In my dream world the R’s would mean what they say and elections would be clean. In that world the D’s would become a bad memory to shake off like a nightmare in one election. If not for cheating they could not win dogcatcher in Roosterpoot.

    • R C Dean

      There’s plenty of Troo Bleevers and Useful Idiots to keep the Dems winning (some) elections. It would be very interesting indeed to see what the landscape looked like if we had clean elections and only counted citizens for apportioning legislative seats, though.

      • WTF

        The Dems would still win in heavily Dem areas, but they would be reduced to a minority party on a national scale.

      • rhywun

        Most people vote by inertia, culture, and/or spite.

        Not issues.

        So yeah, the Dems would probably have a much harder time with national elections but locally not much would change.

    • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

      As long as there are Americans, half will be more liberal than the other half, and they will mostly vote Democrat.

      This is no different than any polity around the world, the only thing that changes is the Overton Window.

    • DrOtto

      I wish that were true, but the kids think they’re going to make socialism work this time. Envy is a he’ll of a drug and it’s what the current batch of successful dems are selling.

      • Suthenboy

        Just like the old batches.

      • WTF

        “I’ll give you free shit” is generally a winning message to the ignorant.

    • ron73440

      I always laugh at the home security system commercials.

      It’s always white guys attempting to break into a house and they are so easily frightened away, like a skittish deer.

      Imagine the howls of outrage if they showed a black male doing that.

      • rhywun

        That phenomenon is visible in all US media, in the news, crime shows, commercials, everywhere. It’s laughably transparent and of course you’re not allowed to talk about it “polite company”.

      • DrOtto

        What Homicide Life on the Streets taught me is that blacks only committed mercy killings and whites committed all the others.

    • slumbrew

      Tell me the perps are overwhelmingly black without telling me the perps are overwhelmingly black.

    • Suthenboy

      I dont know how you could more obviously not say what you are saying.

    • Ownbestenemy

      Ya and I think the fact they will have to live with that is punishment enough. No malice, just a messed up happenstance it appears.

      • Suthenboy

        I have heard that all of my life yet the people I have met who have such baggage have a surprisingly easy time living with it.

    • Ted S.

      I hope you’ll be rational if drugs start falling out of your ass, too. 😋

    • WTF

      Why anyone would want to subject themselves to those insane harpies is beyond me.

      • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

        Because they don’t want those insane harpies to be all that the housewives hear and see?

    • EvilSheldon

      Interesting to look at, but not attractive.

      That basically sums up my feelings about Brutalist architecture as a whole.

    • Suthenboy

      Brutalist masterpiece. Hmmm. Are there jumbo shrimp in that pool?

    • rhywun

      I love how there isn’t a person in sight.

      I am reminded of the old World Trade Center plaza before some people did something to it. Just a huge empty area outside with shopping buried underground.

      • Threedoor

        There was a shopping center there?

      • Sensei

        And a transportation hub.

        I went through it every day when I worked downtown.

      • rhywun

        Yes, underground. Sandwiched between various train and subway entrances.

        There is another shopping mall there today but it’s (partly) above ground this time and there is nice light coming in from outside unlike before.

      • Threedoor

        Interesting.
        I did not know that.
        Natural light is good. That sounds like it would have been awful. I knew the subway station was there.

      • rhywun

        Yes, that is the one.

        It is certainly very nice and I was happy when it finally opened and could commute through that every day instead of the temporary and shifting rat warrens that were in place for many years prior.

        But yeah, a colossal grift for sure.

    • Threedoor

      It is totally something off of a 60s SiFi book cover.

    “Former New York Jets first-round pick Darron Lee consulted ChatGPT about how to “cover up” the murder of his girlfriend, who he allegedly beat and stabbed to death last month, according to prosecutors.

    Lee, 31, allegedly sent the disturbing messages to the chat bot days before Gabriella Carvalho Perpétuo was found by police dead on the floor in a blood-soaked home in Tennessee, prosecutors revealed Monday during a preliminary hearing for the former linebacker, WCTV reported.

    “Scientists have revealed a controversial plan to launch 50,000 mirrors into space to offer ‘sunlight on demand’.

    California–based startup, Reflect Orbital, is poised to secure permission to launch a 60–foot (18.3–metre) prototype mirror into orbit to beam sunlight back to the Earth’s surface…

    Reflect Orbital says its space mirrors could allow solar power plants to operate 24 hours a day, provide lighting for disaster–struck regions, and even replace street lights.

    The company has already applied to the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which issues licences for satellites, and the enormous mirror could launch as soon as this summer.”

    good thing to focus on for a country like the UK which has no other problems than this

    • WTF

      I’m pretty sure white males are not the problem right now in the UK.

      • Threedoor

        They are. They let it happen after all.

      • rhywun

        But it feels so good to blame all your problems on them.

      • WTF

        Okay, good point.

    Said without irony.

    The first one ordered all schools to end their D.E.I. programs. “It said you can’t discriminate,” the president of Vassar, Elizabeth H. Bradley, told me. “We don’t. We didn’t use the term ‘D.E.I.’ ”

    The Unmaking of the American University
    For decades, research universities have relied on federal funding, with no guarantee that it will last. Now their survival may depend on compliance with the government.

      they should monetize more of the research

      LOL

      Gotta love the magical thinking on display:

      “We didn’t use the forbidden words, which means we couldn’t have done the forbidden things.”

    • rhywun

      LOL “we didn’t discriminate”

      Whopper of the century. The man you probably voted for in 2020 specifically stated that racist policy was going to be the number one focus of every branch of government. For starters.

    • Common Tater

      I’m maybe halfway? Does it get to a point?

      Iwashyna described his life as a grant recipient, up to now, as having been similar to that of a small-business owner who has a trusted local banker. Researchers like him produce a grant proposal (these can run to as long as five hundred pages), wait a few months, and get a score from a panel of experts. (Another medical researcher told me that she and her colleagues are scrubbing words from their proposals that might be triggering to officials in this Administration, like “disparities” and “equitable.”) If all goes well, they eventually get a document called a Notice of Grant Award, which Iwashyna compared to a letter of credit, giving the researcher enough certainty about funding to be able to keep working.

      The money just comes from somewhere, right?

      How many times was that guy dropped on his head as a baby?

      Was I supposed to choose all the pictures with nutty people?

      I scored a 100!

      Jar-jar will piss off some people…

    Interesting. If this is correct, and who the fuck knows who or what to trust any more, it looks like after a precipitous decline, Iran’s ballistic missile launches are still down, but its drone launches (presumably Shaheds) have started to recover.

      • Threedoor

        War has forever changes and the US is a decade behind.

        All I can think of when Trump was prattling on about the return of the battle ship was a $20,000 drone sending an aircraft carrier to the bottom.
