Stolen in its entirety from Political Wire, as Status wants your e-mail in return for reading. Shove it up your ass, Status, you greedy pigs. I don't need more fucking bullshit infesting my inboxes. Or my telebison.Status: “According to Nielsen ratings obtained by Status in advance of their release, October 2026 will be Fox News’ lowest-rated month since December 2023, with the network averaging 1.1 million total day viewers. Among viewers in the advertiser-coveted 25-54 demographic, the picture is even worse. Fox News will post its lowest-rated month in that category in 25 years, averaging just 98,000 viewers in the 25-54 demo.””Those figures represent a steep 27% drop compared to last October in total viewers, and a 32% plunge in the 25-54 demo…”
”The Fox News ratings indicate that conservatives are tuning out ahead of the high-stakes elections. While television ratings are not a scientific measure of voter enthusiasm, the eye-popping decline in Fox News’ audience should be a flashing warning sign for Trump and his Republican allies as voters prepare to head to the polls. In comparison to Fox News, the progressive MS NOW is averaging 588,000 total day viewers, a 16% spike compared to last year, suggesting enthusiasm has shifted to the Democratic side of the aisle.”

The trifecta: Stupid, ignorant & mentally ill!
2028 should be real fun.Fatima Hussein / Associated Press:
FACT FOCUS: Kennedy's 'Arabs don't produce science' claim meets a Nobel Prize reality check — His remarks in Michigan have been widely condemned as untrue and racially biased, especially in a state with a large Arab American population. — Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s broad assertions about Arab contributions to humanity’s scientific and literary discoveries at a Republican campaign event in Grand Rapids, Michigan, have drawn criticism just days before midterm elections.“There’s 500 million Arabs in the world and yet they don’t produce science,” Kennedy said on the campaign trail Monday. “They don’t win the Nobel Prize. They don’t win the Fields Prize. They don’t win the Wolf Prize. They don’t produce literature.”The health secretary’s comments — widely condemned overnight by critics as untrue and racially biased — were made while campaigning in a state with a large Arab American population.An HHS representative did not immediately respond to an Associated Press request for comment.Arab refers to an ethnic and linguistic identification, while Muslim refers to a religious identity. So while Arabs can be Muslim, Christian, Jewish or of another faith, the vast majority of Muslims worldwide are not Arab.…Bayliss Wagner / New York Times: Kennedy Makes Bigoted Remarks About Arabs at Michigan Campaign EventSteve Benen / MS NOW: RFK Jr., on the campaign trail in Michigan, trashes the accomplishments of ‘Arab Muslims’Cooper Williamson / Blaze Media: RFK Jr. delivers scathing message about the Muslim Brotherhood in Michigan speechHank Berrien / The Daily Wire: RFK Jr. Unloads On Muslim Brotherhood ‘Death Cult’ That Creates Stagnant SocietiesJoe Sommerlad / The Independent: RFK Jr accused of ‘blatant bigotry’ after claiming Arabs 'don't produce science or literature'

No More Non-Biblical "American" Jesus, Dammit!
Everything he says is a lie. And how do we know he isn't a Comm-u-niss Chinese agent sent to destroy religious freedom? No furriner can be exempt from suspicion.Judge James Ho, Right-Wing Favorite for SCOTUS, Promotes Christian Nationalist Vision for Courts
The Right Hates Indian Americans. It Might Cost Republicans Texas.
Growing anti-Indian rhetoric within the GOP is pushing some lifelong conservative Indian American voters to reconsider their allegiance to the Republican Party.
Let's Have A War Department
These posing idiots are so ignorant. It's War Department, not "Department of War". See?
So these United Snakes are now officially an "aggressor nation"? Like the "Circle Trigon Party"?
Uh-huh. 90 days alright, until the first attack that destroys a supply dump. They're like eight-yr. olds; no connection to reality at all, just making up "cool" stuff w/ tough-sounding names. As if no swarthy furriners could keep a siege going over 90 days. Hell, the idea of Yankee "FORTRESSES" in the Mid-East puts this reporter in mind of Crusader castles. And it'll be a huge waste of your taxpayer dollars.

History Lessons
From a century ago, via Cassandra's Grandson.And, starting a bit earlier, we sense a theme: Heather Cox Richardson shows how history shows again & again. Yet none of the drones ever learn.
The Future!
Feeling nervous, punk? There is mention of chain reactions; one event may not be the end of the world, but should it set off another that's just waiting to happen, followed by another ...Eye-opening revelations this past week have solidified my personal fears about the year ahead: As a nation and as a globe, we're facing a record number of wild risks that are way outside our control.
No. 1, followed by No. 1. He did work the sacred "family" in there, at the end. Thanks for the pep talk, Coach.
- You can only make wise decisions for your career, your life and your family if you're living in the future — understanding what's coming, and living these historic times with your head in the game.
Collective Punishment:
It's A War Crime, Israel!
Just as the Democratic & Republican Parties essentially became their opposites over a few score yrs., so the Zionists turned into fascist thugs, & even faster. They're very nimble. All in "self-defense" of course. You've heard it before:
"The best defense is a goodoffense genocide!"

This a.m.'s idea was to fill your grave w/ my urine (Won't take more than a day or two of urination, believe me.) push you into it, & then hold you under w/ a 10-ft. pole until your lungs are filled w/ my whiz & you can no longer breathe. Seems appropriate to this reporter.

Finished
As mentioned.
Found a better use for the radioactive wooden boxes.
Now, enough w/ the procrastination; the new (& old) rolling stock is silly w/o tracks on which to roll, so back to laying roadbed & track.

Feel free to wake the fuck up & demonstrate, Yankee chickenshits! What the hell's wrong w/ y'all?Saturday Civics Lesson
As ever, the urbane sophisticates of the large states vs. the small-state goobers & hicks. And why there is a Senate. As if a "state", or its legislature, has any "rights" or interests that supersede those of its people. The wealthy, rigging the game since 1786.And not word one about slavery. No doubt simplified for classroom consumption, which is no excuse.
