"I Have In My Hand A List Of 250 Million Americans Who Are Known Domestic Terrorists ..."

Rounding up extremists who are hostile to tradition

Sensing a theme. Are you enough of an outspoken loudmouth to be on bug-eyed buffoon Patel's list? I hope I am.

The new center and funding boost represent the implementation of Trump’s National Security Presidential Memorandum 7 (NSPM-7), the sweeping federal order I’ve been covering since it was signed last September.

Now, Trump’s budget request reveals, the FBI runs a dedicated “NSPM-7 Joint Mission Center”; with personnel from 10 federal agencies, it is busy “proactively” identifying domestic terrorists motivated by any of the following beliefs:

• “anti-Americanism,”

• “anti-capitalism,”

• “anti-Christianity,”

• “support for the overthrow of the U.S. Government,”

• “extremism on migration,”

• extremism on “race,”

• extremism on “gender,”

• “Hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family,”

• Hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on “religion,” and

• Hostility towards those who hold traditional views on “morality.”

How "hostile" are you? And who decides what exactly are "extreme" & "traditional"?

Slumlord Story

Posted on the front door yesterday.

Sanitation, maintenance & several electrical violations, in just one ap't. Tenant must've gotten a lawyer. My neighbor down the hall says she has rats, & a few months ago, one of the slumlord's flunkies asked me if I'd seen any. Just the humanoid variety, so far.

Speaking of rats, I s'pose I'd better not say anything about the son-of-a-bitch pig slumlord if I value my freedom. Gonna call the cops again, squealer? Third time they sent me away for a fucking wk., just over a yr. ago when you were informing once a month; you think the fourth time you can get me put away for the rest of my life, or killed? G'wan, pick up the 'phone!

"Fuck everybody & everything in this damned world & planet" is much too mild a statement after almost 70 yrs. of memories of living among you awful, moronic money-grubbing cretins.

Deluded Morons

US-Israeli war in Iran says it all, doesn't it? Make up your delusional minds: Either no more war or blow the whole fucking planet to smithereens! No halfway measures, to coin a phrase.

GET OUT NOW WHILE YOU STILL CAN!!

Th' hell'd these ninnies do to the player controls that everyone's used to after yrs. & yrs.? Yuck foo, YouTube.

One night, I saw a vision of a bomber dropping a bomb, smoke rising and ships passing on a lake in front. My last name in old English means ‘dweller by the Holly trees’ … Holly woods.

Tat For Which I've Paid

Came sealed in this hard plastic box, which makes it hard to imagine it could have been damaged in transoceanic shipping. In fact, it was "Manufactured and Assembled Entirely in the U.S.A.", in White City, Oregon, so no one in a factory on the other side of the Pacific can be blamed for dropping it & then slapping it in the box anyway; it was good ol' American ingenuity. Course it was shipped from OR to NJ before returning to the Coast. What a world, where I saved eight dollars by avoiding the manufacturer.

When I took it from the shipping box it rattled, & I thought, "Oooh, detail parts", but the rattle was broken & inadequately or possibly never glued parts. Note also broken piping/hoses on chassis & shell, which weren't locked together, but separated when I took it out to take pix.

Looked like a very rough coupling that partly detached the tackboard & ladder; little too much detail for me.

As is this:

When I called the dealer "Bob" told me they'd been seeing more of this recently. Maybe Kadee can't find good packers or QC people. They certainly can't find anyone to proof there their story.

Anyway, "Bob" advised me all the ones in their warehouse were already promised, so he said he'd call Kadee & see if they had any lying around, & if not I'd get a refund. Have to wait until Tuesday, as "Bob" will be at a train show in Mass. over the wknd. I said I hoped he had a good time & he said, "More work." A man after my own heart.

Too young for the MMR shot, babies become ‘sitting ducks’ in measles outbreaks

Doctors worry it’s just a matter of time before all sorts of vaccine-preventable diseases threaten lives like they did a century ago.

“The whole concept of immunization is one of the best things that has ever happened to medicine,” Greenhouse said. “To see that we are actually going backwards is just confounding.”

The stupid are indeed stupefying. Look at this:

It’s not just vaccines — parents are refusing other routine preventive care for newborns

See? Just As I Said

I noted that Chamel Abdulkarim was "almost as cool as The Italian Assassin, Luigi Mangione", in this report.

The worker who burned down a warehouse full of Kimberly-Clark paper products in Ontario this week railed against corporations and compared himself to Luigi Mangione in messages to coworkers after starting the fire, authorities said at a press conference Friday.

Chamel Abdulkarim, 29, is facing both state and federal charges in connection with a fire that broke out after 12:30 a.m. Tuesday in a 1.2-million-square-foot warehouse in Ontario, where 20 other people were working.

Strike back against your corporate masters, sheep!! Burn everything to the ground before it's too damn late!!

"There Goes Your Inventory"

Expect A Toilet Paper Shortage

Total damn destruction. Even got a trailer.

(William Liang / For The Times)

Local Labor Action

The suspect in a massive blaze at an Ontario warehouse posted videos that appeared to show himself [sic] lighting the fire and griping about being paid low wages, according to video reviewed by The Times.

Crews responded to the 1.2-million-square-foot Kimberly-Clark paper products facility early Tuesday morning and were quickly forced out due to “extremely rapid fire growth,” according to the Ontario Fire Department.

The fire caused the building’s roof to collapse and escalated to a six-alarm blaze, requiring the response of around 175 firefighters and evacuation of about 20 employees.

Ontario Police Dept. Cpl. Emily Williams told KTLA that police are investigating the video. “We have had reports that he did give some information on social media,” Williams said.

Chamel Abdulkarim, 29, of Highland was arrested in connection with the blaze, according to authorities. Abdulkarim was employed by NFI Industries, a third-party distribution company for Kimberly-Clark products, fire officials said.

On his Facebook page, Abdulkarim had shared several first-person videos in which a man — presumably Abdulkarim — is seen lighting fires in a warehouse. Alex Montero, who said he met Abdulkarim in the warehouse that night, obtained screen recordings of the videos by way of a mutual friend on Facebook.

“You know, if you’re not going to pay us enough ... to afford to live, at least pay us enough not to do this,” the man says while lighting a roll of toilet paper on fire.

In a subsequent video, the person filming continued to light fires as radios in the background relayed fire reports and evacuation instructions to employees.

“All you had to do is pay us enough to live,” the narrator says as the camera focused on several stacks of paper products beginning to catch fire.

“There goes your inventory,” he says in a final video as the flames began to spread out of control.

The Ontario Police Department did not immediately respond to questions from The Times about the videos.

“It was him that [sic] posted himself doing it,” Montero wrote in an email to The Times, referring to the videos. “If not I wouldn’t have put it out there like that.”

As previously noted. This guy's almost as cool as The Italian Assassin, Luigi Mangione. Anarchy Now!! Death to your corporate masters!!

Sweepers, Man Your Brooms! Clean Sweep, Fore & Aft!

I killed it!

The overhead was just a bit dusty & spider-webby after yrs. w/o a clean sweep.

Given the abundance of spiders, it's disappointing there are still fruit flies in the bunker.

Occasionally chunks will descend from above. Not good to get sticky, dusty spider-stuff in locomotive gearing, rolling stock (Stops rolling.) or even a turn-out. Can't come up w/ a scenario for giant brown snowballs all over the desert, either, so it's clean sweep time, 'cept it's sweep the overhead, not the deck. And bulkheads too. This stuff sticks!

The other third of the bunker.

Not even The Duke was safe.

Final state:

An improvement. Could use a coat of paint. Maybe I'll paint it all sky-blue, & the walls too. Or maybe the slumlord will. I kill myself. But not before I get the slumlord. Note the paint in the second image. That was when one of the slumlord's incompetent employees broke a pipe while plumbing in the ap't. above several yrs. ago, almost destroying my telebision & electrocuting me as I got a space heater off the deck. No apology, compensation or anything else from the slumlord, of course. Just a shitty paint job. Repipe this fucking building, you damned parasite, before I shove a pipe up your ass!!

Over 20 paragraphs, & essentially another laundry list of nails in the coffin of conservatism & its alleged, one time, yrs.-ago principles, but it can't hurt.

Boiled down, the fascisti are running scared, & their ideology, principles & tenets are out the window like a Russian oligarch. Speaking of oligarchs, several good paragraphs on "state corporatism", which this reporter thinks hasn't gotten the attention it deserves.

Hope the police arrived & beat the shit out of the pick-up driver. (Police brutality is not wrong every time!!)Hell, were this reporter 30-40 yrs. younger I might've beaten him the living crap out of him myself, 'though the important thing here would be to demolish the penis-substitute pick-up & watch the fuckhead cry.
