Scared Much?

STERLING HEIGHTS, Mich. — Vice President JD Vance described Abdul El-Sayed, Michigan’s Democratic nominee for Senate, as “evil” during a campaign rally here Monday.

“I realize that there’s something about Abdul El-Sayed that is very, very evil and on the rise in the United States of America today,” said Vance, addressing several hundred people at an event put on by MAGA Inc., a super PAC closely aligned with President Donald Trump.

“And it’s people who see themselves not as citizens of a common nation fighting for every single person — whether they’re Jewish or Christian, whether they’re white or Black or brown — but see themselves as fighting for one group at the expense of others, and that is how, ladies and gentlemen, you destroy the United States of America,” Vance added.

Is he referring to white nationalist scumbags like himself & the other Republicans, who are interested only in helping wealthy white people get wealthier on the backs of working Americans?

Meanwhile ...

Embracing blatant Islamophobia, CBS News makes bizarre attempt to tie El-Sayed to 9/11

CBS News tried to scandalize Abdul El-Sayed's argument about 9/11 and the pandemic. His banal comments aligned with other mainstream commentators — and Trump too.

El-Sayed really puts the fear of Gawd in them, doesn't he? What exactly frightens them so about him?

Considering this is an intramural fight, why don't all three "Abrahamic" religions derived from the Big Book of Jewish Lies & Hallucinations just get lost? Enough is enough already. None of them actually worship their alleged Gawd, but instead kiss the asses of the three mentally ill, sun-fried desert dwellers who hallucinated all the lies & had them transcribed (Moses, Jesus & Mohammed, scam artists all.) I say all three are a complete fucking joke, like virtually all human activity. Stop wasting your time & effort.

And since you don't care what happens to it, why not give me all your money, pathetic chumps?

Self-Diagnosis

The hernia that popped out about four months ago is now what the croaker called "a big hernia". He suggested surgical consultation, but there's no consultation w/o an ultrasound, & the first one I could schedule was 5 December. Three months, if you've lost track. Worst things that could happen? More pain, inability to evacuate & gangrene.

Other crap: Exhaustion & enervation are probably not due to sleeping sickness, as I've no symptoms beyond the inability to remain upright, even in a chair, for more than three hrs., & certainly don't remember being bitten by a tsetse fly.

Depression? The heat? The sheer droning boredom of your awful idiot-filled world?

Dehydration, for which the nurse practitioner actually advised me to consume more salt? (Bought a bag of Fritos® & some cheese dip, as there's almost no protein in me either.)

I also suspect that gravity (Weakest of the four forces.) is increasing, especially in the outside world. Or the atmosphere is denser/heavier, to the point of pressing me down.

Those are some hideous mutations. Not even mental illness explains this, unless Natalie Harp's mental problems are the explanation.Digby has the origin of The Worst Pres. ever's "Greatest Presidents" list. Just sad.

Hating America, A Never-Ending Series

The how & why of "Americanism".
The world constantly looks at the United States and asks one question: "How did they get so dumb?" But the truth is much darker. Americans aren't naturally stupid - their system was meticulously engineered over 200 years to destroy critical thinking. Today, we’re looking at the "engineered ignorance" of the American public. From importing a 19th-century Prussian military school model specifically to mass-produce obedient factory workers, to the 1950s Red Scare that literally labeled "critical thinking" as Communist propaganda. And the wildest part? America is actively exporting this hyper-narcissistic, tribal dysfunction - from the prosperity gospel to toxic internet culture wars - straight to the rest of the world. If you thought failing test scores were the only issue, you haven’t met their media machine.
"They made you a moron", to coin a phrase.

If this doesn't prove that the "social order" is irredeemable & must be destroyed, what will? NIHILISM NOW!!!!!

More Melting To Follow?

How many fucking sheep will die before anyone does anything? Rhetorical question. Obviously, no one is going to do a damn thing & you're all going to drown or boil soon.

Here's a New One:
"Leninist Capitalism"

Or "Stalinist Capitalism"

Why Are We (and Were We) in Vietnam?

Today on TAP: The nation that defeated the U.S. 50 years ago now has the largest trade surplus with us of any nation.
A quarter-century ago, when advocates of normalizing trade relations with China insisted that doing so would compel China to transform itself into a democracy, America’s unions, a number of social democrats (including at the Prospect), and a smattering of China hands (James Mann in particular) called that argument a non sequitur: Capitalism had co-existed with right-wing authoritarianism and dictatorship, and would with its left-wing (or ostensibly left-wing) counterparts, too. Today, Leninist one-party rule (or in China, neo-Stalinist one-leader rule) gets along just fine with the C-suites of America’s corporations and banks, for the same reason that Wall Street prefers production in “right-to-work” states: the absence of worker power and the ensuing low levels of workers’ wages.
Meet the new boss, chumps!

I know one of the major Murkin model railroad manufacturers (w/ SoCal roots; started at a hobby shop on Hollywood Blvd.) has moved most if not all its production from China to Vietnam. Great fucking job, from Eisenhower through Kennedy, Johnson & Nixon.

Ha ha. Defeated in war & then in economic competition. Tell us again how the Democrats are all "Commies" & you're all for "free markets" you corporate fellow travelers. We won't be free until we've purified this evil species by eliminating the highly functioning psychopaths.

Shorter Trump Appointee:
"No Jewish Science!"

Heard this one before?
In a 2023 interview, Trump’s new FDA pick laid out a vision for ‘conservative-based’ science
Probably not, because you are ignernt buffoons. Learn something, it probably won't kill you.
When the Nazis entered the political scene, Lenard quickly attempted to ally himself with them, joining the party at an early stage. With another Nobel laureate in Physics, Johannes Stark, Lenard began a campaign to label Einstein's relativity as Jewish physics.

Lenard and Stark benefited considerably from this Nazi support. Under the rallying cry that physics should be more "German" and "Aryan", Lenard and Stark embarked on a Nazi-endorsed plan to replace physicists at German universities with "Aryan physicists". By 1935, though, this campaign was superseded by the Nuremberg Laws of 1935. There were no longer any Jewish physics professors in Germany, since under the Nuremberg Laws, Jews were not allowed to work in universities. Stark in particular also tried to install himself as the national authority on "German" physics under the principle of Gleichschaltung (literally, "coordination") applied to other professional disciplines. Under this Nazi-era paradigm, academic disciplines and professional fields followed a strictly linear hierarchy created along ideological lines. In his 1938 paper, "The Pragmatic and the Dogmatic Spirit in Physics", Stark contrasted a "pragmatic spirit" driven by experimentation, against a "dogmatic spirit" dominated by theoretical frameworks. He claimed that pragmatic spirit was exhibited primarily by men of the Nordic race while physicists with dogmatic spirit were primarily Jewish.

This awful person will be soon killing your children w/ "conservative-based race" science & anti-vaccination lies.

Good. Hope they're all bankrupted & die homeless on the streets of a big city, especially since I don't need their fucking food anymore now that I have hormones!

And The Military!

In other national security areas, what do all the phony patriots & closet cases squealing like little girls about their testosterone & masculine manliness have to say about the reality away from their silly fairy stories?
New York Times:
Hegseth's Purge of Top Generals Leaves the Army Rudderless … A series of firings and feuds initiated by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has left the Army essentially rudderless as it struggles to deal with the threat posed by cheap, deadly drones and missiles that have pounded U.S. bases in the Middle East.
NBC News:
Iran inflicted billions in damage to U.S. intelligence sites, sources say  —  The attacks on buildings and surveillance equipment in the Middle East caused unprecedented damage for the CIA and other U.S. spy agencies.  —  WASHINGTON — Iranian missile and drone attacks have inflicted damage …
How much did Russia & China have to pay to get these billions in damage done for them? Or was all they had to do help Fat Don get elected?

Note well that two of these three items may be behind a paywall. So much for the First Amendment, & yet another excellent reason to start the killing now, wouldn't you say?

Bi-Polar

Constantly shuttling between the absolute blue-hot rage that fuels my righteous & well-justified desire to torture & kill all my enemies (It's a long list. Just about everyone I've ever known, met, or heard of is on it.) & complete exhaustion & enervation that so saps my strength I can't remain upright & must lie down, in a fitful state between sleep & consciousness. (One of these days I won't be exhausted when I get up; the rage & energy will continue unabated & you'll all be in trouble.)

Thank you all again for all the support & concern that I've never heard from anyone, ever. Now I know who were never my friends. Only some little prick who likes to call the police on people. Little bastard apologized to me the first time he squealed, when nothing happened; last yr. I was imprisoned for a wk. & yet not a peep so far. Been almost a yr. & a half, jerkwad. (Revenge is a dish best served cold.)

But I'm the one w/ the "problem", not a heartless society of uncaring pigs!! No, yours is a perfect world of greed, corruption, bullshit, denial, perversion, degeneracy & Republicanism. And, of course, squealing rat informers.

Now tell me this is the best of all possible worlds, you deluded idiots!

What sad losers.

Every trembling, fearful white pansy in this world of shit & pain should be taken behind the barn & shot in the head, & I'm the man for the job. Ignore me the & the sad truth (or even call the police because you don't like the truth) long enough, & I kill you. Simple, innit?

Slow Summer Sunday ...

Still 'phoning it in. Not that anyone's watching or listening, let alone paying.

At an impasse; I need a mess of new turnouts & I have to decide which brand(s) & sizes to buy. (Walthers or PECo?) Already have track I may never use, so I'm planning & measuring at least twice. Also realized a crossover is needed.
Have two used ones, but I effed one up a bit & the other doesn't work so well either.
Two new turnouts may be easier & less expensive than taking this to Burbank's Train Shack at US$75.00/hr.

Note broken piece of brass(?) that allows the point rail to flop about.
That grommet is yesterday's technology, 'though this newer model doesn't appear any easier to repair.
This will now require hrs. more experimentation & the joining & rejoining of track, turnouts & paper templates. One hears the phrase "World's Greatest Hobby" a lot; thinking it's somewhere between most irksome & most boring.

Late to the game, but this relevant number slipped what's left of my mind until today.
P.S.: This isn't historically accurate either.Nor is this. Where's the historical outrage? Oh, no colored people to get racist about? O.K., gotcha.

You can also note that the word "classic" is now, like everything else, competely w/o meaning.

“We don’t even know if we won ..."

“We control it with the blockade, and I like the idea of declaring it a territory,” he told reporters on Monday when asked about that comment.

He also posted an image of a map to social media labeling the waterway as a “new U.S. territory”.

Iran’s deputy foreign minister, Kazem Gharibabadi, dismissed Trump’s comments as “delusions”.

From Fat Don's phony Twitter.
Donald Trump called the strait of Hormuz “an American territory” on Friday, as the US continues its military blockade of Iran’s shipping and ports while Trump’s administration struggles to end its war with the country.

“We don’t even know if we won, because I view the strait of Hormuz as an American territory right now,” Trump said, addressing a crowd in South Carolina. He was campaigning for senator Darline Graham, who is running to permanently fill her late brother Lindsey Graham’s Senate seat.

Later in his remarks, Trump joked about bombing Iran.

“It’s a Friday night. We have plenty of time,” Trump said before reciting The Snake, a poem he frequently uses at campaign rallies to underscore his anti-immigrant policies. “What the hell do I have to do? Go back and bomb Iran a little bit more?”

Mentally ill & mentally stupid. The complete idiot.

Beef In The News

None Dare Call It Communism!

Comrades! Glorious News! By decree of the People’s Beef Committee, 300,000 metric tons of ground beef shall enter tariff-free for 90 days, priced 25% below the capitalist market. Thus shall the workers eat, the ranchers prosper, and the Great American Herd rise again!
“Conservative lawmakers and pundits alike spoke out on the internet Friday after President Donald Trump announced a new deal that will temporarily lift certain tariffs on ground beef imports, with Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT) warning ‘this will further harm’ American ranchers, ‘most of whom are MAGA Republicans,'”Mediaite

Mediaite: Fox’s Tomi Lahren torches Trump over new policy to “import a bunch of foreign beef.”

Apparently, by Sen. Sheehy's logic, it's perfectly fine if non-MAGA citizens are harmed. Will this beef be reserved for MAGA states, then? Another argument for reverse immigration: Back to the Auld Sod for you, bog-monkey!

Round-Up Time For Laura Loomer!

Diseased, deluded & depraved mind, or loud-mouthed witch desperate for attention? Why the dichotomy? Both, & much, much more. One would not want to crawl around inside that brain. Or listen to the podcast. Hell, Loomer's tongue should be in a cast.
“I mean, it would be a lot easier to just mass deport Muslims and start to use military force to round them up. I mean, really, honestly, it would be much easier. It would be much easier, instead of having Americans relocate. It would be much easier to actually start using military force to start raiding mosques and removing these people from our country. I mean, that’s what needs to happen. They need to be removed from our country with force.”

— Trump ally Laura Loomer, on her podcast.

Can anyone give examples of "having Americans relocate"? Surprise, it's bullshit. Over 10% of the sheep move every yr. One of those American "freedoms". Like hate speech, & lying through your teeth at the top of your lungs on the iNternet. Someone get a net & a tight white coat for Ms. Loomer, please.

Nurisng Home Crisis Arrives

I mentioned Norm Ornstein, who described the coming Trump-caused health care crisis two items below. Wait no more!

‘There is nothing else’: Californians face eviction as insurer cancels assisted living benefit

Four weeks ago, Matt Johnstone received a call from the board-and-care facility in North Hollywood where his 89-year-old father lives. Health Net, the insurance company that pays for his care, was eliminating its assisted living benefit, meaning he would have to move out soon.

Johnstone panicked. His father has dementia and needs around-the-clock care. Neither Johnstone nor his brother can afford the roughly $6,000 per month the facility costs, and with health problems of their own, they can’t safely meet his needs at home either. Without insurance coverage, their father could end up on the streets, he said.

“He’s declining, and I just don’t know what’s going to happen if the program ends,” Johnstone said. CalMatters is not publishing the father’s name because Johnstone fears the plan will target him for speaking with media.
