ICE has been under tremendous pressure lately from the Trumpers above them in the organizational chart. The year 2025 is gonna end with LESS individuals deported than in the last calendar year under Biden. The Trumpers are buried under their own exaggerations. There was never and invasion from the s...

Is that some secret 'rulers of the world' handshake? What is it with Trump fingering the other guys cufflink?

" If Democrats had been doing their job, he would never have risen to power." If VOTERS, of any party, had been doing their job, he never would have risen to power. Trump has done nothing as president that has been contrary to anything and everything that was publicly known about him in 2015. He has...

Yes indeed. The universe as we know it, with the present President of the USofA, continues to inform me of the sad limits of my imagination. Who would have thought the CinC would complement the Sec'y of Defense (War) for acts of piracy. Sort of a review of the Soviet Mental Health community of 75 ye...

And couldn't disagree with you more. AI, Emily Post, Miss Manners? Me. I stick with Fowler's Dictionary of Modern English , second edition, 1965. I was once a student at the Delaware Law School, Wilmington DE. The student handbook said the final authority on spelling, definition, and usage was Webst...

May be off topic but here it is anyway. "Why 696 pennies sold for more than $16.7 million" Headline on a Yahool news item. Said the last pennies produced at the government mint at Philadelphia were sold at auction. Some were produced on solid gold blanks. Any body have the skills to discover if the ...

Oh you Canadians are so naive. Freedom is never free. Freedom freckles are proudly the evidence that some truly partiotic parents are willing to kill their children in the name of true freedom. Or perhaps it obedience to the voice of the wonderfully wise voice of the Secretary of Health, speaking as...

What do they do if I just plead the 5th? Is it legal to plead the 5th if there is nothing I could truthfully say that would incriminate me? Could that be impeding a federal investigation? Oh what a tangled web we weave.

This place is considered social media? I thought that was stuff like X and facebook and I could honestly answer none.

Maj Gen'l Sir, I hate those 'peel-off' tops on ordinary canned goods. I much prefer to use my own traditional can opener. For a typical can of Goya black beans I now have to use a very large channel lock pliers to grasp that tab and rock the tool toward the center of the can while holding the can ve...

And now the MAGA guy wants to sue 60 minutes for the interview?! He says the new owners of CBS are worse than the old one. He was SOOO slandered by this interview with the soon-to-be-former Georgia Congress critter. It is so wonderful to have a president of the USofA with such wonderful personal tas...

More of that binary thinking cited by Datsun in the Empire thread. Alot of that around. On the eleventh of September, 2001, I went out and bought a yellow Gadsden flag. When the tea party political movement used it for their symbol, I have never flown it again. Symbols only work when there is shared...

BB, I wonder about the amazing ability of ad agencies to book business for tv ads. There once were lots of ads on tv for distilled spirits and tobacco. The feds banned this advertising and the sales of these products increased. That looks to me as objective data that tv ads are not a good way to mak...

Remember this Commander -in-Chief (before he had that title) proudly said he could stand on the street in New York City, shoot random people and he would not lose a single vote. 'Course now he would have to borrow the gun from one of his Secret Service guards, because as a convicted felon, he cannot...

Sorry, but I doubt there is any boat that can go 80MPH for a thousand miles non-stop. I can imagine a boat that can go that fast for perhaps five minutes, and then continue non-stop at about 15knots for a total of a thousand miles. I know there are professional Bass Fishing boats that will do a sust...

All you guys above, thank you. This all is something I could never understand or comprehend on my own. It is really nice to sit at the feet of those who know music much more than I do or even can. I like Hillary Hahn, but now I like her stuff even more because I understand more about what she is doi...

"And no, I do not believe in due process in war. How would that have worked? It would have given the entire German army due process. How do you think that would have turned out" It turned out just like it does here in the USofA. A few were hanged. Many got a slap on the wrist. Some were hustled back...

The Sec of War's first, primary military experience was as a butter-bar Lt at Gitmo. Guarding and protecting the worst of the worst.

That is where he formed his gut understanding of military law.

" let's just say that I''ve never heard of people volunteering to become slaves or acquiring a life-threatening illness". Ever hear of a product called 'cigarettes? When I was in the fourth grade, 1949, long before the surgeon general ever put his warning on a pack of cigs, we commonly called them '...

A fine group of upstanding white Christian Americans in Oklahoma City on 19 April 11995 killed 167 people, injured 684 and destroyed $652 million in real estate. Tell me more about these dangerous immigrants the Trump administration granted asylum in April of this year. At the same time the flood of...
