Cue the Silhouettes (1957) brothers and sisters!
“Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 139,000 in May, and the unemployment rate was unchanged at 4.2 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Employment continued to trend up in health care, leisure and hospitality, and social assistance. Federal government continued to lose jobs.
The unemployment rate held at 4.2 percent in May and has remained in a narrow range of 4.0 percent to 4.2 percent since May 2024. The number of unemployed people, at 7.2 million, changed little over the month.
Of course this is establishment data. And it comes on the heels of a much higher Challenger layoffs report and a lame ADP report. so, is it real? The BLS database tale can be different.
So let’s do the math: Database says 696,000 fewer people are working. Up from year ago, but not the pant load offered in the pied-press release.
After the data, Wall St was holding gains because, we think, it’s harder to spot users of designer drugs.

Jitters: Getting Things Wrong
Let’s begin with: US hits International Criminal Court judges with sanctions over investigation into Israel | The Independent. This brings us to two thinking points:
- We see increasing evidence the Trump administration is hardening into a pro-Israel state. Six people die in Ukraine and it’s a “stop the presses” moment. Thousands die in Gaza and it’s back page and maybe only a paragraph there. This all has a “shoot the jury” feel to it. Like all souls don’t weigh the same?
- Second point is why the Independent rolled a Vance picture with this story? It was after all a Rubio State decision. Human error or policy capture indicator?
- Well, except VIDEO: Palestinian Terrorist Mohamed Sabry Soliman Films Himself Before Setting Jews on Fire in Boulder — What He Said Should Shake Every Patriot.
- And here’s another mush-headed marketing showdown: Israel threatens to ‘act accordingly’ as Greta Thunberg frolics on sailing boat heading to Gaza: ‘We are prepared’. (Wasn’t there an old saying? “Children should be seen but not heard? Well even seen is now silly….but when you’re marketing mush…
Saying’s often attributed to John Mirk, BTW, an English cleric, who wrote a poem around 1400 that included: “Hyt ys an olde seyde sawe: ‘A mayde schuld be seen, but not herd.’” This referred to young women or maidens, not children specifically, but the idea evolved over time to apply to children. Besides, it seems to work in streaming world pretty well…
Where did “peacenik” Trump go? Trump says it may be better to let Ukraine, Russia ‘fight for a while’? Again, our framing is it seems that Russia and Israel are trying to goad each other into first use of nukes because after the first one is popped, others following would be more defensible. (Not really, but that’s not what the cross-tabbed data shows…)
Just in time for fishing season: North Korea raises capsized warship after failed launch. We got the lines, they got the sinkers…
Equality is not Equal Dept: Massachusetts Sanctuary Cities Take Trump Administration to Court Over Federal Funding Threats. Our strongly held Constitutional view is that the Constitution applies only to Citizens and those here legally with valid entry papers. Then equal protection applies. Not in “messy chew sets” which – like Commiefornia – seems to have money to burn.

And the implosion of Higher Ed continues: Columbia University fails to meet accreditation standards: Education Department.
Something Going Right? Noem just ended Obama’s intimidation program for Patriots on planes, finally!
Around the Ranch: The Afterlife Schema
(That’s a little shorter than “Mapping the Afterlife: What Dreams Teach Us About Death, Reality, and Everything in Between.”)
Made great progress overnight in my “other life’s quest” to learn more about the “Afterlife Schema.” What happens when we die? What’s the science deal? Post NDE (near-death experience), DMT hit, and LRE.
OK, which is what?
Well: A schema is a mental framework that organizes and interprets information. It shapes how we perceive and understand the world.
As I explained in my book Psychocartography, these “schemas” don’t just exist in the “here and now of the shared waking world.” There are additions – add-ons – that we work on in our sleep. Not all (as in everyone) but a fair percentage of people do…
You may recall the childhood rhyme? “Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Life is but a dream”?
“The origins of “Row, Row, Row Your Boat,” which ends with “Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream,” is murky. The earliest known publication appeared in 1852 in The Student’s Serenade, a collection of American folk songs. Its simple melody and structure suggest it may have existed earlier, possibly among 19th-century American or British communities. Some scholars tie its roots to the rhythmic work songs sung by rowers or laborers, with its repetitive cadence mimicking the steady pull of oars. The “life is but a dream” lyric, however, adds a philosophical twist that’s led to speculation about influences from Romantic-era poetry or even older metaphysical ideas, though no direct source is confirmed.”
Which gets me to the first “touchstone” in this weekend’s big ponder:
- Is “Life is but a Dream” possibly, a critical “collectible” in making life. Individual elements in a schema are called nodes or concepts.
Yet, we – as a whole world full of bumbling idiots – spiritually blind and bumping into things – are generally never schooled (or figure out for ourselves) that in order to understand what comes after less than 36,500 days (for most humans) there are “nodes and concepts” to be collected. Life is very-much an “escape room puzzle.”
Well, except we all leave. The “club of Life” has it’s own closing hours. We can leave with the keys to escape [any time] or not. Doesn’t matter one way, or the other, to Source/GATU/Universe/God.
Point #2 this morning (And it’s the conceptual basis of my first novel DreamOver) is that the “Life is but a dream” idea really begins to flesh-out a “many worlds interpretation of whole Realities”. Where you go to sleep in this Life, but can (with work) then “wake up in your other – OverLife.”
A hat tip to my consigliere for sharing deep insights into this “many worlds” construct based on the work of Krzysztof Jackowski, a well-known psychic and clairvoyant from Cz?uchów, Poland. When a number-crunching tax attorney analyzes predictions at well-over 80 percent correct, you’ve got to pay attention.
While Jackowski is famed in Poland, where he’s helped authorities solve many crimes, and while his predictions about political figures winning elections, and which Pope would be picked, or the “machinations and fallout from the recent papal conclave – to be evidenced sometime after the first of 2026, his real contribution to humans is not for his “near-future” calls. Rather, it’s his amazing series of interleaved discussions about Life (in this plane) and Death (over here) plus about the Life Review Process which is already in scientific literature.
In fact, referring to this is “revisioning” of one’s life in his discussions, the “Fascinating, Captain” part is that his schema is an extremely close parallel to my own research into “how it all works.”
Which, if you track the Psychocartography work, becomes evident when you consciously recognize that many people – in their dreams – return nightly to “different worlds.”
Here’s where it went in my overnight dream that launched me into this morning’s esoteric ramble.
Visit to the Sailing Planet
In last night’s latest “off-world” adventure I was back on a “home world.” Somehow involved in marine biology on this visit.
Seems here, fish can be trained, much as you would train a pet dog. They like to be petted, and when trained, they “school up” and will follow a small boat around.
In the opening sequence of the dream, I was making notes on a particular illness some of the larger fish were encountering. The “trainable” ones have odd bodies, almost two-parts. Imagine a fish with a “normal” head *(except huge eyes) and then what’s almost a waistline halfway to the rear fin. This enables them to swim at incredible speeds – up to 50 knots over here in waking world. Who knew fish – somewhere in universe – would have “split bodies” (tagmatized) for high speed?
Anyway, I had just figured out that the fish ailment was an irritation on one part of their bodies (upper left, front segment) causing symptoms to appear elsewhere (middle, rear segment). Might be analogous to what we (waking, here) humans are just coming to recognize as the link between diseases like CV/Alzheimer’s in one part of the body, being likely driven by irritation elsewhere; like gut biome?
Anyway, a friend shows up and we decide to go sailing. This whole planet was a sailor’s dream. I’ve written of it before, and if you look at the 2024 Urban article in the “Around the Ranch” section, where I discuss the eerie familiarity to the Cho Mountains of Tibet (and see the picture), you’ll have a good feel for the place.
Whole bottom line here is? We went out sailing between all these massive mountains that drop straight down to the water’s edge – leaving perfect deep water sailing – and I noticed something.
The snow level on the mountains was only about, what, maybe 100 or 200 feet up from the shoreline? Yet, in the cockpit of the sailboat, the temp was a warm 78, or so. And the water we were sailing on was “tropical fish warm.”
We decided to heave-to. Sat there for a day, or two (time and days are seriously wonk over there). But it was one of the most satisfying things I’ve done in a long time. My eyes were literally “eating the scenery” just as one would have a delicious meal; that “can’t get enough of it.”
Side note: Over there, we don’t “eat” in the conventional sense; we take-in energy. This looking at the mountains provided a dramatic recharge.
Spectacular sailing and mountain scenery and this “drinking it in like it’s a liquor.” Then the learning to be shared on the waking side was dropped into consciousness.
The idea was simple: “You are observing a whole different level of stratification of local Reality. In Ure waking world, the rule of thumb is temperature drops 2-3 degrees per thousand feet of elevation. On other worlds, though, as you can see from the snow line, the change is far more steep: 40-degrees colder just 100 feet above…”
OK, I give up: Why?
“Ah. Has to do with the “stacking of worlds.” The old Theosophy explorations into “densities” was conceptually useful, but incomplete. This is one of those things waking-world sci-fi gets terribly wrong. Write this down…”
Shoot.
“One implicate of the Many Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics is that the many worlds are stacked in various “density layers.”
Like pieces of copy paper? Whole ream’s worth?
“Yes, more or less.”
Hardly seems worth writing a column about.
Then I thought about it and it seemed to fit. Every life at its beginning is like a “blank sheet of paper, is it not? Nice analogy to being born into a blank sheet place…
“Give it a hundred years. Your drive to explain “domain wall scaling” is all about this very thing. Not many people will ‘get it’ – at least, at first. But the larger Reality will come into focus over time. Life is about consciousness spending time, for a while, on one of those sheets of paper. When we die? Off to another sheet where we “wake up” and as Jackowski puts it, we will “revision” the previous sheet as we work our way progressively back to Source. Top sheet.”
I gotta think on this one…
A note on technique. Since AI was asking:
“If you’re living this, are you picking up any specific “nodes” lately, like in dreams or synchronicities, that feel like they’re slotting into your own Afterlife Schema? Or is it more the overall vibe of weaving between worlds that’s got you hooked?”
Actually, it’s from the “dream mapping process” in Psychocartography. See, when you write down (or commit to waking memory) a lot of your “dream adventures” a whole “new world” will begin to appear. Each dream is like a movie set., Enought movie sets and you’ve got a city. A few cities (and traveling between ’em) and a whole world begins to resolve into view.
You will find, for example, that “north is west” in some dreams, and it’s a useful guidepost for personal orientation. Different “norths” hint at which world you’re in. But as you get a whole pile of dreams and mentally “lay them out like a map” they begin to describe “home worlds…” I have two main ones, a “sailing among the mountains” world and a “family world.” Few trees on Sailing World, lots of forests, plant life, railroads and Oceanside resorts on Family World.
Once you’ve got that? Well, fear of Death leaves. But, replacing it is a more approachable problem: answering the question “What is left for me to do here?” We’re all “still here” because there’s a ton more work to do.
And that slides me right into this morning’s To-Do list…solving the rest of the Afterlife Schema will have to wait for another day…

“Thousands die in Gaza”
I wonder if Jesus is happier and happier or madder and madder.
“Sadder” would be my guess.
I would guess, disappointed — in all the people who are so gullible that they believe Hamas’ reporting of Palestinian casualties, or so prejudiced that they ignore Israel’s reporting.
If I told you I had $40 trillion in my bank account and could buy Musk, Bezos, and Buffet, give them away, and never miss the cost, would you believe me?
If you would, you are well on your way to owning the Brooklyn Bridge.
If you would not, then why the fuck would you, or anyone else, believe Hamas (whose charter suborns and encourages lying to infidels), or any organization which has neither boots on the ground nor a history of news neutrality?
So far, Israel has killed about 2.5 million of the 2.39 million Palestinians. This leads me to believe someone is lying, and it is probably not the Israelis…
Have the Houthis won?
Today is the 81st anniversary of D-Day.

I do not celebrate war. I wish to honor those who gave their all for a cause they were told was noble and right and which led to the reality we enjoy today.
Many of us have family, relatives or neighbors who were involved in Operation Overlord and are deserving of our gratitude and respect. Others argue it was an unnecessary battle that sent 10’s of thousands of soldiers on both sides to their early graves, or that Germany would have eventually lost the war anyway, and at far less of a cost of human capital than that lost during the actual assault.
Without Operation Overlord on the beaches of Normandy, Russia would have likely ‘eventually’ pushed Germany to the Atlantic, defeating the Reich but in the process, turning most if not all of Western Europe into a vassal of the Soviet state, detrimentally impacting countless lives globally for decades to come and crippling the global economy. So D-Day was a ‘choose your poison’ operation – send thousands of vibrant young men with untold potential into the meat grinder of war, or sentence millions in W. Europe to a life under the repression and scarcities of Soviet rule.
Perhaps this latter alternate future unfolded in a parallel quantum universe. I pray I never get to visit it.
well expressed . totally agree

“… fish can be trained, much as you would train a pet dog. They like to be petted, and when trained, they “school up” and will follow a small boat around …”
It’s no dream WordSlinger, it’s real. Petting a fish isn’t much like petting a dog but they can “decide” you are no threat. If you _aren’t_ trying to eat them they adopt you as a safe zone and will even follow you. This not from some think tank (Steevo) … from actual long life experience.
Today is National Doughnut / Donut Day (apparently either speeling is acceptable now that they’re their there and they-are are all cultural constants. Around here it’s Minnow Enrichment Day (as is every day until I’m out of doughnuts / donuts).
The minnow / baitfish school which calls my pier shadow home can see me above the water and avoids me, to the extent they stampede if I raise a hand. Now, after learning I’m the Johnny Appleseed of pastries, my personage at the seawall draws a crowd.
Another local critter and I had it out today. It would seem reptilian amphibian water snakes are very slow to learn. I pinned a 3-footer on one of the sets of pier steps. It could have been much worse for the snake. Watch this space.
We are still smoke-eaters here.
Oh Canada!

Looked like fog this daybreak but weather guy on TV said it’s smoke. Not going out to pull any scapes today. Tomorrow to be nicer here.
“…they can “decide” you are no threat. If you _aren’t_ trying to eat them they adopt you as a safe zone and will even follow you.”
Hanauma Bay in East Oahu is a marine sanctuary. You can swim among the fish there, and they will eat out of your hand!

Everyone feeds the strippers when there, talking giant fish that just slow roll up on surface to get leftovers and whatnotz offered by the patrons. No doggy boxes, just feed it to the Strippers..
I love how the media yells every time the Hamas war machine yells out a number without any check. Where were they when Assad was killing 500,000 of his own people. I guess its only news for the commumedia when a Jew kills a Muslim.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Syrian_civil_war
The fact that the world seems hell bent on erasing the only democracy in a pool of tyrants, should worry any observer. The whole point of doing this is much bigger than you want to know.
Hamas is the official source for all Palestinian State information, so rather than place actual, unbiased reporters on the ground (or imbed them in the IDF) Reuters, the BBC, and everyone else that’s likely to have a “Middle East Bureau” just rolls with the “official” numbers…
And we are too lazy and stupid to demand an unbiased check of either casualties or the situation, as a whole.

May work fine until Europe realizes that Putin is deciding that he both needs a bigger “Buffer” and is also pissed as hell at GB and it’s never ending attempts to destroy Mother Russia so he decides to spank GB “HARD”, as in destroy some important part of it, so as to finally teach it a lesson (which everybody else will then be forced to take notice of)
Anybody who thinks it wasn’t GB’s hand behind the partial destruction of one leg of Russia’s Nuclear Triad needs to go back and revisit the GB’s Elites long standing hatred of everything Russian. Putin KNOWS … and will now want revenge.

“Our strongly held Constitutional view is that the Constitution applies only to Citizens and those here legally with valid entry papers.”
the framers were pretty clear with their use of words – persons, people and citizens. the plain reading of the constitution is that due process applies to all persons.
“nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws…”
even absent the constitution every person everywhere is born with the inalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
you appear to be a fascist in the making arguing that people can just be swept up off the street and imprisoned without any due process. it’s really quite shocking you feel that way. you must feel that all souls don’t weigh the same.
Me? A fascist? You’re a wing-nut open borders guy! US laws apply to US persons!
In U.S. legal terms, a “U.S. person” generally includes:
U.S. citizens (by birth or naturalization).
Lawful permanent residents (green card holders).
Certain individuals physically present in the U.S. under specific legal statuses, such as those with valid visas or other proper entry documents, depending on the context (e.g., tax law, export controls, or immigration).
However, the exact definition varies by context:
Tax law (IRS): U.S. persons include citizens, lawful permanent residents, and some non-citizens who meet the “substantial presence test” (based on time spent in the U.S.).
Export control laws (e.g., ITAR, EAR): U.S. persons include citizens, nationals, permanent residents, and certain protected individuals (e.g., refugees or asylees) but exclude undocumented individuals or those on temporary visas unless specifically authorized.
Immigration law: The term may focus more on citizens and those with legal status (e.g., visa holders, asylees, or refugees), excluding undocumented individuals.
Undocumented individuals are typically not considered U.S. persons in most legal contexts, as they lack proper entry documents or legal status. However, they may still be subject to certain U.S. laws (e.g., taxation if earning income).

in addition to eliminating due process how many boxes can be checked?
“1. Powerful, often exclusionary, populist nationalism centered on cult of a redemptive, “infallible” leader who never admits mistakes.
2. Political power derived from questioning reality, endorsing myth and rage, and promoting lies.
3. Fixation with perceived national decline, humiliation, or victimhood.
4. White Replacement “Theory” used to show that democratic ideals of freedom and equality are a threat.
Oppose any initiatives or institutions that are racially, ethnically, or religiously harmonious.
5. Disdain for human rights while seeking purity and cleansing for those they define as part of the nation.
6. Identification of “enemies”/scapegoats as a unifying cause. Imprison and/or murder opposition and minority
group leaders.
7. Supremacy of the military and embrace of paramilitarism in an uneasy, but effective
collaboration with traditional elites. Fascists arm people and justify and glorify violence as “redemptive”.
8. Rampant sexism.
9. Control of mass media and undermining “truth”.
10. Obsession with national security, crime and punishment, and fostering a sense of the nation under attack.
11. Religion and government are intertwined.
12. Corporate power is protected and labor power is suppressed.
13. Disdain for intellectuals and the arts not aligned with the fascist narrative.
14. Rampant cronyism and corruption. Loyalty to the leader is paramount and often more important than competence.
15. Fraudulent elections and creation of a one-party state.
16. Often seeking to expand territory through armed conflict”

U R a F-ing moron .
Where on planet Earth besides north america, AUS and EU is this even remotely true ? Obviously you have never left Ure parents basement, or home town.
Travel to any major city in north america or 3rd world country – head to the poorest neighborhoods, in Philly its North Philly, Chicago -southside, LA-Compton & Barrio areas and spend 48 hrs in da ghettos’ and then tell me any of that above bullschiesse is even remotely possible – its IS not, it is an ideal and nothing more.
You appear to be a Stone Cold Idiot .
do you “think” that government grants rights to people or is it the other way around??
every human is born with certain inalienable rights. just like i wrote. maybe you’re referring to something different like securing said rights? sorry, you’re having a hard time with comprehension. if i could make it any simpler so you could understand, i would, but i cannot make it any simpler.
If they came here illegally, then they are the same as unwelcome intruders in your house at midnight. Shoot them or remove them or jail them, whatever is easiest.
so now you’re advocating for summary execution of immigrants. you’re worse than a fascist eleanor.
I keep hearing that these people they are suing for had deportation orders IDDUED BY THE IMMIGRATION COURT. The immigration court is an administrative court set up by Congress (under the Dimm o Crats) to hear immigration cases.
Their cases were heard and a deportation order was issued.
These people HAVE ALREADY HAD DUE PROCESS AS PRESCRIBED IN THE IMMEGRATION LAW.
Interesting how a group can interpret the Constitution strictly when it suits their purpose (deprive “any” person of life, liberty) then turn around and twist “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof” to mean “separation of church and state” (a phrase that appears nowhere in the document), then start telling people which Christmas carols they can sing at a school concert, and which kinds of decorations cities can hang on their light poles. Jesus had little use for hypocrites.
“Life is very-much an “escape room puzzle.”

LEAVING THE TRAP How to exit the reincarnation cycle
By Isabella A. Greene

” Israel threatens to ‘act accordingly’ as Greta Thunberg frolics on sailing boat heading to Gaza: ‘We are prepared’. (Wasn’t there an old saying? “Children should be seen but not heard? Well even seen is now silly….but when you’re marketing mush…”
You DO understand that Greta Turdburger is 22 YEARS OLD and has, for years, only been a “child” within the orb of the propaganda wing of the world neocommunist movement, and only then, when it suits their purposes. Notice that “global warming” no longer exists? Greta has abandoned her climate change activism in favor of Palestinian activism because neither issue really exists, and her activism is actually all about narcissistic little Greta…
Well d’uh. Of course. But like the old saying in my circles: A fetus even even human until it has graduated from law school or med school
Or as my wife’s former boss (Highway Patrol Sergeant) once said, “At what point does a feces become a human?”
Another of my favorites was when he was discussing a serious traffic crash. “That poor man will be a paralegal for the rest of his life.”
After both of these, when everyone else cracked up laughing, he said, “What did I say? What did I say?”
Diminished capacity that one, not weak intellect – DIMINISHED/CHALLENGED – she looks autistic in my eyes – classic symptoms displayed, nonetheless her bullscheisse is somewhat entertaining.
She is looking more and more like Chum..

We have had a group of remoras living under the boat and a couple that hang under the dinghy. We recognize them from features like clipped pectorals and wild colors. Some are steel gray, others darker with green and black. Funny looking things with a big sucker like dpot on top of the head and a form that makes it look like they are upside down. We have a door on our transom that opens to about trn inches from the waterline and they come running when we go aft to dump food scraps. Chicken skin, steak gristle, and papaya are obvious favorites. They don’t attach to the bottom but hang off the outboard rudder and will let you pet them. When we row ashore the dinghy family go along for the round trip.
All last night was big lightning and heavy rain. Winter is coming. Nice it’s cooler though. We’re heading West soon.

“We see increasing evidence the Trump administration is hardening into a pro-Israel state”
By all means, let’s harden into a pro-North Korea or pro-Venezuela State, instead. Heaven forfend we should ever support the only democracy or non-communist nation in the entire region. Maybe Trump should send more billions of Obamabucks to Iran?
(“Where did “peacenik” Trump go? Trump says it may be better to let Ukraine, Russia ‘fight for a while’? Again, our framing is it seems that Russia and Israel are trying to goad each other into first use of nukes because after the first one is popped, others following would be more defensible. “)
phew… I’m going to make a wild guess here..
Trump realizes the country is broke.. the dollars worthless.. there’s what almost forty trillion dollars in raw resources…
we see it with the tariffs.. the tariffs don’t target the ones destroying the country for financial game ..instead tariffs often create unintended consequences, impacting everyday workers more than those at the top who make financial decisions. While tariffs are typically introduced to protect domestic industries, the cost of imported goods rises, forcing businesses to either absorb the cost or pass it down to consumers and workers. Meanwhile, those with higher financial flexibility—corporate leaders or major investors—often find ways to navigate these changes, leaving the burden on lower-wage earners. It’s a frustrating reality, particularly when workers who fuel the economy are left struggling while those in power maintain their advantage.
SO….. my guess is it’s for the business model taking a gamble that it won’t escalate into a world war !!! I’m probably way off on my guess.. it just looks like a chess move ..no one wants the world war.. in a world war everyone loses.. since Putin and Xi have shown restraint from escalating it.. relying on negotiation and the nonstop attacks from Ukraine..he’s gambling that Russia and their defenses are showing signs of weakening.
I have a friend who owns a ranch with cattle. She has a huge garden every year. Thinking of this site I added her if she could grow enough food to feed her family for a year. She just laughed. I guess not.
You can.. the problem comes from versatility… my parents grew enough for the whole neighborhood.. but there’s limitations..
like wheat products..the colony gets first seed.. for wheat.. they produce 90 percent of their needs..women no longer sew their own clothing..its cheaper to buy it..not many knit.. lace use to be made by hand..now it’s made by a machine in china.. our grid and infrastructure is severely neglected the grid is vulnerable to collapse because of big buck billies pockets.. we lose fifty five acres a minute to urban expansion..and c!ear it what 7000 trees at the same time.. global climate change is happening but until the business model of billies masterbating pocket pool and his craving for numbers..it won’t change..
most live in structures and cities that require concrete not garden space.. greenscaping the cities is an answer but there again its billies masterbating and greed that is more important.. its why we have one of the worst educational systems and one of the worst medical systems in the world.. the drive at five news and low wages..the same thing is what got many civilizations to fall into tyranny with tyrannical leaders..it is what it is.. more crime more people resorting to doing things than ever before..the new normal as a police officer told me over the threatening messages I got.. my grand daughter told me they get five to the disabled , poor or elderly that come in to get cash card fearing the threatening text messages..
Most legal scholars agree that the Fifth and Fouteenth Amendments protect everyone ‘legally’ within US borders or within the confines of US possessions, regardless of citizenship status. The definition of ‘legally’ becomes the crux of the argument RE: deportation or incarceration.
“Let’s begin with: US hits International Criminal Court judges with sanctions over investigation into Israel”
I assume you only consider this “wrong” because we didn’t sanction them all…
The International Court of Criminals is a neopolitical body chartered by the UN and designed to give (principally) 3rd world shitholes (and to a lesser degree, declining “powers”) license to bully nations (and their leadership) with whom they cannot compete economically or militarily.
Notably, Britain and France are the only nuclear signatories, and (I believe) every UK territory or protectorate is a signatory, EXCEPT Guernsey and Jersey…
Got milk?
“Where did “peacenik” Trump go? Again, our framing is it seems that Russia and Israel are trying to goad each other into first use of nukes because after the first one is popped, others following would be more defensible.”
Trump is still a peacemaker. Biden torpedoed his effort from the grave, by permitting Whitehall and the Pentagon to script and supply the attack on Russia’s bombers. Trump knows that Russia MUST retaliate, and massively, or Putin will find himself in an unmarked grave and DJT will be left, trying to pick up the pieces after some old Soviet sot takes out Kiev, London, and Ramstein.
There is no such thing as defensing nuke use. Israel (or the U.S., U.K., or even Russia, FTM) could nuke Iran without a problem. However, if a nuke ever falls in Ureup or Eurasia, all of the nukes will fall, everywhere, and there won’t be anyone alive, anywhere, to either print the recrimination or read it.
Back the Bear in a corner.. when it seems like your getting it from all sides..
then the humiliation and disrespect.. the people saying come on man grow a couple ..its what shoved the small country of Germany to just say what the hell..
the ex ranger in Washington state is but one example..he was suffering from what he had experienced in combat then ended up in divorce.. He was forced out of his house and living in a car.. the culmination of humiliation of everything he had endured.. the can man that called a dumpster home was a similar story..he just learned how to cope..and never wanted anyone to know he was forced to live in The garbage dumpster..the two families that were forced to live in a camper..because they didn’t make enough to afford low income rent..I could let it get to me now.. with our financial reality if I let it drag me down..instead I’m going to get a job army age.. and try and pay off that dam bank loan and the dental costs at 39.5 % .. it is what it is seventy million Americans are in this same situation.
This Trump-Musk pissing contest tantrum on Social certainly is a class act.
Have you heard of the Cheeto in Chief’s EO for a Garden of American Hero’s? One might characterize it as unrealistic and a waste of resources? Makes one wonder whether these geniuses (Trump, Lutnik and Bessant) are joining the dots with the plan to drive re-shoring of US manufacturing via their ill-conceived tariff program? How long to build the industrial plant and capacity to reshore what China and others currently produce? Maybe they can import sculpture labour from say China or the EU at a premium to meet the timeline.
Condolences on the laughing stock leadership you have in the White House! Especially for you folks who voted for and continue to tolerate the clothes less Orange Emperor and his band of yes-men.
Here’s an AI summary of the American Heroes delusion:
“Experts consider Trump’s Garden of American Heroes plan “completely unworkable” because:
• The U.S. lacks enough skilled sculptors and high-quality foundries to produce 250 life-sized, realistic statues within the tight timeline—statues are due by July 2026, but such commissions typically take years to complete.
• The requirement for traditional realism further shrinks the pool of eligible artists, as many prominent American sculptors do not work in this style.
• The $200,000 per statue budget is low compared to recent costs for similar projects, especially given the mandate for premium materials like bronze, granite, or marble.
• Many foundries are already booked months or years in advance, making it logistically impossible to meet the deadline.
• The garden’s location is still undecided, adding uncertainty and further complicating planning and installation.
• Negative perceptions of Trump in the art community may deter qualified artists from applying, reducing the chances of attracting experienced talent.
Experts conclude that the combination of an unrealistic timeline, limited resources, and logistical uncertainties makes the project highly unlikely to succeed as planned.”

feat: bad $ feng shui in a Chinese Opera?
Folks,
Let’s imagine aliens abduct future President Trump to 1972 Hong Kong with the Nixon entourage, and resulting hijinks end up in a Chinese Opera production! Western digital outlet TAG24, subsidiary to one of the largest German media concerns MADSACK Media Group dating to 1893, has published a review of a Thursday evening Chinese Opera production which opened in Hong Kong. Apparently “Trump, the Twins President” is a 2019 opera updated for 2025 by a feng shui master turned playwright. Tariffs and a tussle between Presidents Trump and Zelensky have been added. That’s it, please proceed to the egress. Hahaha, hahaha, hahaha!
Spoiler alerts for Chinese audiences:
Suspicions there may be something in the laughing gas enter mind as at least two play character names just happen to match two colleagues of Chairman Mao from the historic Long March. The one who ended up the worst off at the hands of The Gang of Four during the Cultural Revolution has his birthplace featured as the name of the crematorium in the play.
On a happy note, President Trump eventually is reunited with his lost twin named Chuan Pu (which translates as “Trump”). Yayyyy!
Here is an English language Hong Kong link about the theatre presentation on until Sunday:
https://www.westk.hk/en/events/trump-twins-president?tab=overview
Back in the real world, Chuan Pu is a cryptocurrency sometimes depicted by an orange-filtered likeness of President Trump. Charts presently indicate a 14% price decline today. However 83% of investors allegedly hold bullish future sentiments on the coin. Longer term holders over the past year have allegedly absorbed a 98% price decline. On a Hong Kong (“Fragrant Harbour”) Chinese Opera stage at the Xi Qi (“Strange”) Theatre, something smells rotten?
Certainly this might beg an ironic rhetorical question be asked of fine cryptocurrency advocates hereabouts. What’s up?
Stay cool with orange kool-aid, and have a great weekend everyone!
Correction:
Apparently the letters ‘i’ and ‘u’ are not the same. Xiqi (“Strange”) Theatre should be Xuqu (“Draw”) Theatre.
re: Royal News 1660-2025
Folks,
The sound of hoofbeats were heard across the racetrack today at Epsom, Surrey. In the stands and around the paddock on Ladies Day steady flows of refreshing beverage accompanied fashionably attired attendees. Apparently tomorrow’s feature race roster includes last but not least Rogue Impact from the Rogues Gallery syndicate at odds of 200/1. This is not investment advice. Prior to the advent of racing, Epsom had become a famed site of pilgrimage for its healing waters. King Charles II allegedly first met his paramour, the actress Miss Nell Gwyn, at Epsom. King Charles III and the Queen Consort did not attend today.
However elsewhere, staff of the Duchy of Cornwall were treated to a visit from their employer the Duke of Cornwall (Prince of Wales) along with his aunt, the Duchess of Edinburgh, spouse of Prince Edward. The occasion was a Royal Agricultural Fair in Wadebridge formerly known as Wade before a bridge was built across the River Camel in the 15th century. According to “Wikipedia”, the first permitted fairs in the town date to the time of King Edward II in 1312. He authorized two per year of which one was to fall on Michaelmas, the Feast of the Archangels.
Dr. Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace: “There is no definitive scientific proof that CO? is responsible for any of the slight warming of the global climate that has occurred during the last 300 years.”
“But there is certainty beyond a reasonable doubt that CO? is the building block for all life on Earth, and that without its presence in the global atmosphere… this would be a dead planet.”

Russia Strikes Back – Fedorivka Has Fallen The Assault on Komar Begins

re: Fedorivka, 5000bc – 2025ad
feat: fire and hunger
Ray,
Thanks, I had never heard of Fedorivka. It was known as Chubarivka from 1960 until 2016 as the birthplace of Vlas Chubar. It seems Stalin made him a patsy of the 1930’s Ukrainian Holodomor starvation event.
The area also features a former settlement site of the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture, Europe’s most advanced circa 5,000 to 3,000bc. Archeologists suggest they ritually burned their buildings every 60 to 80 years, and then rebuilt on the same site. Prior to current day events, Soviet Russia pushed the Nazis out of Fedorivka just over 81 years ago.
