Feds Indict Two In Anti-Aircraft Missile Sting

Not as good as Australia's big bust, but it does show we're using some of that "detective work" that Tubino suggests is the key to stopping Al Qaeda.

Just like "detective work" after the 1993 World Trade Center bombing insured that the Twin Towers would continue standing. I'm so glad those big boxes still adorn the lower Manhattan skyline.

Wow, Ace. . . it's good to see you still using sarcasm here at your site. It's refreshing, like a Fresca.

Cheers,

It's nice to see you sticking it to Tubby, but by putting that bum in your byline you're giving him attention he craves, but doesn't deserve.
He's trying to co-opt your site.

I'm so glad those big boxes still adorn the lower Manhattan skyline.

But they are!

My 6th grader brought home a homework assignment that required him to read a set of worksheets that were a kid's fictional journal and then match the items mentioned with the location described.

The trip described took place 'last year'.

Item 3 - a Playbill

Item 4 - a photograph of NYC that Timothy took from the observation deck of the North Tower of the World Trade Center.

I'm having him do his Foreign Country report on Rhodesia.

Geeze, fantasy boy is getting billing for some stupid shit thing he said? I think someone needs to revisit the troll feeding policy. ahem.

Good old fashioned detective work? Yup, half way through the invasion of Normandy, our NCIS was able to determine that its German troops manning machine guns that were firing on the troops. Ok, ok, but seriously, I am sure that any such "detective work," work as you two put it, is really a result of either interrogation, a coercive interogation, data mining or a lucky break. Investigative work is reactive, unless you are using psychics. Otherwise, its a forensic exercise, like "well, it looks like they used that door there."

Spin that, bitches

What are we supposed to do after all the neat-o detective work? Issue subpeonas?

At that point, we get Clinton to hit them up for contributions to his presidential library. Duh.

Email confirmed as once used by the Muskily Heterosexual James Talarico found in leak of emails of Fling.com sex dating site:
An email address that James Talarico's attorneys confirmed belonged to and was at one time used by the Texas Democratic U.S. Senate candidate appears in a database search result associated with the adult dating website Fling.com's 2011 data breach. A Fling.com account was created with Talarico's email address just before Talarico began teaching sixth graders.

The result lists the username "mohawk787" and an account creation timestamp of December 26, 2010, at 20:56:49. The profile's interests field lists "FETISH," "GROUPSEX," "SEXUAL RELATIONS," "ONLINE FLIRTING," and "OTHER."

Townhall shared the information described in this article with the Talarico campaign and requested comment Friday morning, and in response, a mere 35 minutes later, received a four-page, detailed letter from legal counsel for Talarico that addressed some, but not all of the information described in this report.

"Well I can't believe the trans-child-obsessed Confirmed Bachelor James Talarico is into group fetish shit," said noted void phantom Doctor Nullity, The Man Who Never Existed
I'm not the guy who noted this, I saw it on X (Razib Khan maybe), but The Bulwark could be "audience capture". It might have started as the Frum / 90s-Kristol / NRO classic Eisenhower Republicanism. But nobody was reading the Bulwark except leftists.

Tallyrand has a quote on this, "I am their leader so I must follow them".

Same goes for David French, Christianity Today, and the "Anxious Bench" side of Patheos. They may have started out Christian. But it wasn't Christians signing their checks.

I'm just wondering if this flighty high-calorie pyrsyn is also in the news today for other reasons....

We call on France to exercise restraint when dispersing the freedom fighters on the streets of Paris.

Failure to comply will leave us no choice but to bring a case before the ICJ, in close cooperation with that renowned champion of human rights, Afghanistan.
