Georgetown U. "students" are upset that an orientation program will now emphasize learning and success rather than racial and sexual identity.
College attendees, what would you say you do here?
No more presentations on 'what it means to be a woman on campus [and] person of color in a predominantly white institution'A Georgetown University student paper investigation has revealed the school's Center for Multicultural Equity & Access "sunsetted an identity-driven pre-orientation program" over a year ago "amid" Trump administration "attacks" on DEI measures.
According to The Hoya, the center's Young Leaders in Education, Advocacy & Dialogue program, aka YLEAD, was changed last August to Total Hoya Readiness: Intro to Vocation and Experience, or THRIVE, which no longer has programming related to identity and diversity.
YLEAD used to "foster dialogue" about "ability, ethnicity, gender, nationality, race, religion, age, sexual orientation, and social class," according to the Hoya's review of the center's archived webpages.
Solene DeGaynor, a former YLEAD participant who later became a THRIVE coordinator, said she was "disappointed" the university moved away from the original program.
"We did a lot of presentations on what it means to be a woman on campus, what it means to be a person of color in a predominantly white institution," DeGaynor said. "That was really helpful in terms of understanding how identity intersects and plays a role in how you operate on a college campus."
DeGaynor added that the new THRIVE is more about "academic success" and "access[ing] to all of the resources" at Georgetown.
Former YLEAD peer leader Dani Scott said YLEAD was "an important support system for incoming students of color and international students," and that it helped students with "all these different identities" navigate a "predominantly white institution."
"It was very much focusing on making people feel safe before they even got there and making sure that they knew that there was community there," she said.
Scott added "I wish that Georgetown has stayed a little bit stronger and truer to the mission that they said that they were creating [...] I feel like potentially there was a robbing of a certain community that Georgetown could have cultivated."
I'm starting to get very black-pilled.

Mexican narcoterrorists have been probing the southern border with drones for a long time. The US had been using electronics-jamming equipment to drive them back across the border.
Now we're using lasers to just destroy them.
Military officials told CBS News in an article published Monday that less than two weeks after it first used a high-energy laser weapon system to down suspicious drones, there has been a roughly 75% decrease in the number of drones probing the southern border in the Rio Grande Valley.Reports of the new laser system emerged in February after the military used a laser to shoot a Customs and Border Protection drone in Texas, prompting the Federal Aviation Administration to close down more airspace near El Paso.
Military officials said they have since had better communication with the FAA and the system officially debuted last month when the military took down three drones on Aug. 25 and 26.
The military previously used jamming tools to send drones back to their place of origin, but can now eliminate a drone if it feels like a threat from a Mexican cartel.
"When you just send it back and then it comes back up or is defeated temporarily, but the game changer is ensuring that that tool can't be used again against you," Army Col. Robert Felicio, commander of the 130th Maneuver Enhancement Brigade, told CBS News.
Since the beginning of the year, the military has stopped 300 drones officials believe are linked to Mexican cartels, including eleven the laser took down over a span of ten days. It was not clear how many drones the U.S. sees each day.

"America is Going Down!:" Ahmadrahman Mohamed El-Sayed Speaks At Islamic Extremist Conference Where Terror-Priests Threaten America
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Tuq'r Qarlson has one question: Why did the Jews do this?
What is the game they are running on the goys?
Many people are too afraid to ask these important questions. Tuq'r is not.
Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed's speech at a controversial Islamic convention in Detroit this weekend was sandwiched between a video montage featuring a firebrand imam declaring that "America is going down" and a speech from another cleric who said members of Congress who voted for an antisemitism bill were "guilty of treason."The embarrassing spectacle on Saturday underscored the awkwardness of El-Sayed participating in a conference featuring a rogues' gallery of Islamic extremists including 9/11 truthers and a Holocaust-denier.
The Islamic Society of North America kicked off day two of its annual confab on Saturday with a montage of clips from various convention speakers, including imam Siraj Wahhaj, an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
"I am ashamed of what America has become," Wahhaj says in the undated clip. "Look at the newspaper every day, how America is going down."
The montage also showed a clip of El-Sayed lamenting his experiences in the wake of the 9/11 attacks as a "kid with a funny name and an olive complexion."
3,000 Americans dead, Muslims the Real Victims Here.
And it ended with a graphic that included an infamous photo of El-Sayed fist-bumping Hasan Piker, the left-wing influencer who declared that "America deserved 9/11."El-Sayed delivered his scheduled remarks minutes later and gave a standard campaign stump speech that focused on cost-of-living issues, as well as his experiences as a Muslim in America.
"Muslim Americans, they want to tell us that we don't belong. They want to tell us that this country's not ours, that because of our names or how we pray that we are somehow less than," said El-Sayed.
No, it's not because of your "funny names." It's because you worship a "god" who tells you to kill the infidels -- us -- and you are constantly justifying such murders.
Some people did some things with some planes and some buildings.
Oh, and your piratical cousins steal billions from us when they're not just sponging off us with infinite welfare grifting.
He was followed by Zaid Shakir, a prominent New Jersey cleric, and Cenk Uygur, the host of The Young Turks.Shakir, who once asserted that "Zionist forces" were behind the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, railed against the U.S. government over its support for Jews and Israel, singling out a congressional vote to adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's definition of "anti-Semitism."
"When the United States Congress passes laws on behalf of a genocidal, rapacious, nefarious foreign country to deny us the freedom of speech ... that is a domestic enemy of the Constitution of the United States," Shakir declared. "And as such, they are guilty of treason."
...Both Uygur and Shakir have embraced conspiracy theories about the 9/11 attacks, in which 2,977 Americans were killed by al Qaeda operatives.
"I no longer believe [sic] official 9/11 story," Uygur said in February. He also promoted the "dancing Israelis" myth, an antisemitic conspiracy theory that posits that five Israeli spies filmed and celebrated the terrorist attack. "I didn't know we arrested Israeli spies who were here to 'document the event,'" wrote Uygur.
And Shakir has called for an "examination" of what he described as "glaring weaknesses and inconsistencies" in the official 9/11 narrative. He has urged followers to read the works of David Ray Griffin, a leading 9/11 conspiracy theorist who has argued that the United States orchestrated the attacks. And Shakir asserted that the U.S. government used the attacks to "launch a war on Islam." Shakir, who in a discussion on the 20th anniversary of 9/11 stated that he was "extremely anti-American," has also called for Muslims to use "guerrilla warfare" to achieve their desired political outcomes.
In a 1992 treatise, Shakir asserted that "every major Muslim political gain" in modern history was brought about by "extrasystemic political action"--including guerrilla warfare. He cited the creation of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the "armed struggle" that led to Taliban control of Afghanistan.
A copy of Shakir's pamphlet was discovered in the apartment of a suspect in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, the New York Times reported in 2006.

Left Agitates for Killing People in the Streets for Socialism
James Talarico's "Pastor" Says He Wishes the Butler Assassin Had Been "More Successful"
—Disinformation Expert Ace
"You better get ready for ... war." Across the country, radicals are openly planning for the next stage of their movement, and notably, the Democratic establishment is not part of their plans. Despite the talk of a "Big Tent Party," socialists are riding high on a surge of support and talking purges and revolution.In Chicago, radicals gathered for a conference on Marxism during what many view as the heyday of socialism in the United States....
Speakers in Chicago used the conference to push supporters to the next stage in the movement, including some openly calling for violence and the end to capitalism.
University of California Santa Barbara History Professor Butch Ware said Democrats "must be destroyed" and urged attendees to be ready for "war in the streets." Notably, in postings on X, Ware has said that candidates such as New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed are too restrained and are being pushed by the establishment "to contain radicalism."
The professor "of Africa and Islam" whose faculty page is appropriately found under "bware" is the latest radical to dismiss the "Big Tent Party" rhetoric of establishment figures like Schumer. He declared, "The Democrats cannot be reasoned with. They must be destroyed." There is little subtlety in the message, Ware has explained: "You cannot call yourself a revolutionary and not be talking about training with weapons."
...
Hasan Piker has called for a purging of moderates from the Democratic Party.
Just last week, Darializa Avila Chevalier declared, "A big tent doesn't pay your rent, lower your grocery bill, or take on the corporations bleeding our country dry. Democratic socialism does."
In a video posted to X, Professor Ware called for violence, warning followers that "some of these clickety-clack revolutionaries have never been in a f*cking gunfight." He menacingly added, "Y'all ain't nowhere near ready for a war in the streets. You better get ready for both kinds of war if you stay ready, you ain't got to get ready."

Notably, this is the same university that saw a professor lead her students in physically assaulting pro-life advocates on campus years ago. Despite pleading guilty to criminal assault, she was not fired and later honored by the University of Oregon for her inspiring leadership.

Manufacturing Jobs Surge Thanks to Trump's Tariffs and America First Agenda
—Disinformation Expert Ace
People with steady jobs have confidence and people with confidence can oppose the Regime.
American manufacturing is on the rebound -- and that good news could hardly come at a better time for President Donald Trump, as Republicans gird themselves for the midterm elections just two months from now.Manufacturing isn't the only sector that's on a hiring spree; businesses across the board added 162,000 new jobs in August.
Even The New York Times called the latest employment numbers "zesty."
The paper quoted T. Rowe Price's chief US economist, Blerina Uruci: "It's a very good report . . . And it perhaps shows that financial conditions more broadly are not that tight."
The workforce participation rate rose as well -- which matters, because people who drop out of the labor force are invisible in unemployment rates that only count those who are looking for work.
This economy is pulling Americans who'd given up hope off the sidelines and putting them to work.
That's a success not only for Trump's economic policy, but for his immigration crackdown, too: It's no longer so easy for companies to abandon Americans by hiring foreign workers instead.
Establishment economists predicted none of this.
They were certain Trump's tariffs would be catastrophic, and that American industry would contract without constant infusions of foreign labor.
Relentless efforts to stop the president's economic agenda in the courts created uncertainty that's bad for business.
Companies have to make plans based on a predictable environment of taxation and regulation -- if nobody knows whether tariffs will remain in place, nobody can afford to make long-range decisions about re-shoring jobs and buying from American suppliers instead of sources overseas.
That's what the president's foes -- who want maximum economic globalization -- were counting on.
...
Yet all the lawfare of the past year hasn't stopped the America First employment agenda from succeeding.
The results have been especially impressive in manufacturing, where the latest numbers show the biggest growth coming from jobs that make long-lasting products.
As Peter Navarro, former director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy, notes in RealClearMarkets, "Manufacturing employment rose by 16,000 in August, with nearly all of that gain coming from durable-goods manufacturing."
Trump and Vance are also promoting their planned reversal of an LBJ-era rule that homes with a stay-at-home mother are not eligible for family subsidies available to homes with only working parents.
The White House is reportedly planning to reverse a half-century of damage to the nuclear family by rewarding married parents who stay home and raise their children, as Vice President JD Vance appears poised to officially announce the program's addition on Thursday at the Republican National Convention's (RNC) Dallas gathering."A two-parent family is the best place in which to raise a kid, and certainly it's a sacrifice. But our job is to raise good children who become good citizens, and so I think that this is an important initiative," Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks told Just The News.
The administration is drafting a rule that would let stay-at-home married parents receive subsidies from the $12 billion Child Care and Development Fund. Vance has made the initiative a priority, telling the crowd at his Marietta, Georgia rally on Saturday: "What's left over with the ashes of what they've torn down is socialism. Well, we've got a different approach, my friends. We want to invest in you. We want to fight for you, and we want to fight for your children's future."
"We're going to defeat socialism by giving you a stake in the American dream and that's how we're going to win the future. Our goal is to reverse a concensus that has screwed over communities like this one for decades," Vance concluded.
Under the draft, one married parent could receive aid to care for their own child while a spouse works at least 35 hours a week. Unmarried couples and nonworking single parents would remain ineligible.
The program now serves about 1.3 million children, mostly in households headed by single-working parents. Critics say expanding eligibility without extra funding would squeeze current recipients and providers, and the rule will need White House approval and a public comment period to take effect next .
I saw one conservative object to this plan by saying that the aid is a socialist measure and extending socialist measures to stay-at-home-mom families is still extending socialism.
I guess that's true -- but the socialist measure is already on the books and is unlikely to be repealed. Given that -- does it make sense to deny these child subsidies to parents just because one parent raises the kids at home?
Texas School Board Approves "Controversial" Theory That the 9/11 Attacks Were Inspired by Radical Islamic Ideology
—Disinformation Expert Ace
The only controversial idea here is that it is radical Islamic ideology that inspired the attacks.
Some might say that plain-old Islam was behind the terrorist slaughter.
The Texas Board of Education gave final approval to changes to the state's high school social studies curriculum, a controversial move that will impact how students are taught about Islam and Christianity.The amended social studies curriculum, which covers US history, government and world geography, comes after dozens of people gave public testimony, with most expressing their opposition to the finalized version.
The board approved language asserting that "radical Islam" motivated the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks rather than taking a more narrow focus on the terrorist groups involved in the attack.
The material also requires students to study early Islam through Prophet Muhammad's "brutal military campaigns against Jewish and Christian tribes," the "normalization of slavery" and the taking of female captives as "harem slaves."
Several Democratic State Board of Education members pushed back against the wording, but the Republican-majority board still approved that section and the other changes on Friday.
Muslim groups and students, as well as multiple curriculum experts, also spoke out against the new changes.
"I feel attacked, as if my religion doesn't belong," Habiiba Quresh, a 15-year-old Muslim student, told the board, according to The Texas Tribune. "I shouldn't have to defend my religion in the middle of history class because of one sentence someone on this board wrote."
When the Regime wants to talk endlessly about whites practicing slavery, and whites complain, the Regime says that whites are babies with "white fragility" who are just covering up their "white supremacist culture."
When you point out that Islam enslaved hundreds of thousands of Europeans and Americans, and Jefferson had to send multiple squadrons of ships to stop Muslims from enslaving us, they whine that you're imposing your white supremacy on them.
Only (((some people))) are required to reckon with their ancestors' unsavory actions.
At the WSJ, John J. Miller notes that "The Road to 9/11" aired once and then was buried forever.
A 9/11 Story Some Want Us to Forget'The Path to 9/11' suggested some inconvenient truths 20 years ago. It's been memory-holed ever since.
A television miniseries disappeared down the memory hole. "The Path to 9/11" aired exactly once, two decades ago. Then it vanished. ABC hasn't shown it since. The network has refused to release it on a disc or as a download. No streaming service carries it.
It's almost like someone doesn't want you to watch it.
Millions of Americans saw the docudrama in 2006, on the fifth anniversary of 9/11. It played across two nights, without commercials. Its major inspiration was the final report of the 9/11 Commission, the bipartisan panel empowered by federal law to investigate the terrorist attacks.
"Few people actually read the report," says Quinn Taylor, the former ABC executive who conceived of the show, in an interview. "Our goal was to put it in living rooms and make people think."
...
"The Path to 9/11" is a gripping story of failure....
A lot of Democrats took "The Path to 9/11" seriously. Instead of letting it become an occasion to learn from the mistakes of past, however, they proclaimed political grievances. They disliked its suggestion that President Clinton was too distracted by his paramour Monica Lewinsky. They objected to its depictions of Clinton administration figures who blocked O'Neill and others as they tried to thwart bin Laden. They didn't care that many of the people behind the program were fellow Democrats. "I'm to the left of the left," says Hans Proppe, a producer. "We were just telling history."
The most controversial scene involves CIA operatives and their tribal allies in Afghanistan as they prepare to snatch bin Laden from a remote compound. With the villain in their sights, they seek a green light from President Clinton's national security adviser Sandy Berger, played by Kevin Dunn. At first, Berger dithers in the situation room. He looks weak. Ultimately, he refuses to grant the go-ahead order. When the bad news arrives down range, an Afghan warrior asks a devastating question: "Are there any men left in Washington or are they all cowards?"
Berger and others claimed that this never happened. Yet it's based on an incident described in "The 9/11 Commission Report." In 1998 the CIA had identified a possible bin Laden hideout near Kandahar, Afghanistan. For months, teams rehearsed an operation to apprehend him. The plan was risky. Officials debated whether to approve it. Days before it would have occurred, it was called off. "Impressions vary as to who actually decided not to proceed," says the report. It could have been CIA director George Tenet. There's a good chance it was Berger.
Perhaps calling it off was the right move. Maybe the mission would have failed. We'll never know. The report makes a simple observation: "No capture plan before 9/11 ever again attained the same level of detail and preparation."
A couple of weeks before the scheduled broadcast of "The Path to 9/11," ABC sponsored a screening in Washington, D.C. It showed a portion of the program, including the scene with Berger. Almost immediately, Democrats revolted. Harry Reid of Nevada, Chuck Schumer of New York, and three other senators sent a letter to Bob Iger, who was the CEO of Disney, which owns ABC. It warned him about "misinformation," urged him "to cancel this broadcast," and reminded him in the manner of extortionists who run a protection racket that ABC enjoys "a free broadcast license" from the government "to act as a trustee of the public airwaves serving in the public interest."
It was a brazen move. It might even be described as "despicable, disgusting, and against democratic values," which is what Mr. Schumer called President Trump's demands that ABC fire Jimmy Kimmel last year, after the late-night host claimed that the assassin of conservative activist Charlie Kirk was "one of them," i.e., a member of "the MAGA gang."
At least the letter from the senators was a public document. The media reported on it. Americans could read it. In private, President Clinton phoned Mr. Iger and insisted that he stop the show, according to the journalist Carol Felsenthal in her 2008 book, "Clinton in Exile." ABC responded by ordering last-minute edits. The scene with Berger was chopped up. "That was an important sequence," says Cyrus Nowrasteh, the screenwriter. "We were censored."
...
After the single showing, ABC deep-sixed "The Path to 9/11." The company appears to have no plans for a revival. "It was cancelled before cancel culture was a thing," says David L. Cunningham, the director.
Other movies about 9/11 are available in the usual ways. These include acclaimed films such as "United 93" and "Zero Dark Thirty" as well as "Fahrenheit 9/11," the anti-Bush screed by left-wing polemicist Michael Moore. Only "The Path to 9/11" is absent, perhaps along with the movies that Hollywood never made because producers witnessed the fate of those who dared to question the legacy of Clinton 1.0 and wondered about the prospect of Clinton 2.0, as Hillary Clinton ran for president in 2008 and 2016.
Meanwhile, Islamist propagandists are claiming that images of the "Falling Men" of 9/11 are Islamophobic, and are further claiming that no one actually saw these images at the time, but were later discovered and pushed as propaganda. This is a bizarre claim, and I'm not even sure this claim, even if true, would aid the Islamists.

New York Post: Disney Groomer Network ABC Will Not Renew Jimmy Kimmel's Contract, Show Will End in 2027
—Disinformation Expert Ace
This is just what Page 6 "is told." There is no official word on this, and in fact the Disney Groomer Network is "pushing back" against the claim.
Next season of ABC's late-night show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" will be the last, Page Six is told."His contract is not getting extended," a source familiar with the situation explained.
The season begins Tuesday and would wrap up, after 24 years on the air, in May 2027.
A spokesperson for ABC Entertainment told us, "[This] information is inaccurate -- any reports about the future of the show at this point are purely speculative."
That's barely a denial.
Kimmel takes pride in signing year-to-year deals, which are rare in the TV biz and allow him unusual flexibility.The news comes on the heels of Rosie O'Donnell completing a four-night guest-hosting run on his show that was a ratings success.
O'Donnell was "in her element," a source told us. So much so that she went viral for mocking her longtime nemesis, President Trump, by performing a parody of the traditional Irish song "Danny Boy" that she called "Donnie Boy."...
Insiders say the move is unlikely to be related to Kimmel's antagonistic relationship with the Trump administration.
...
[O]ur sources say new Disney boss Josh D'Amaro wouldn't be swayed by politics.
"He's not afraid of the administration ... Josh isn't folding," the TV insider said.
D'Amaro has reportedly been offering veteran execs early retirement packages as part of restructuring and cost-cutting across the company.
Cost reductions may have played a factor in their decision to part ways with Kimmel because, as one ABC source said, "it wouldn't have anything to do with Trump."
The Rosie O'Donnell "ratings success" is a double-edged sword, isn't it?
By "ratings success," they mean the Unfunny Version of Annie Wilkes scored much higher ratings than Jimmy Kimmel.
That's not good news for Jimmy Kimmel, is it?
It's hard to find Jimmy Kimmel's average ratings, because most search results are about ratings in specific weeks. But I found an article stating that his average ratings over an entire quarter in 2025 were 1.77 million.
And Rosie O'Donnell got 1.87 million.
If I were an executive, what I would take from this is that I can plop any non-talent in the 11:35 pm slot and get better ratings than Jimmy Kimmel.
Rosie O'Donnell's "ratings success" hit 1.87 million per episode. That's... not great.
Maybe the Rosie O'Donnell "ratings success" convinced ABC to drop Jimmy Kimmel like a bad habit that is also a very unfunny habit.
Lindsay Clancy Jury Forewoman Admits She Was "So Excited" When She Thought She'd Get to Acquit the Killer; Another Female Juror Says the Male Holdout "Just Couldn't Get Past the Fact That She Viciously Killed Her Children"
—Disinformation Expert Ace
He just couldn't get over that, huh?
Wow, he's so irrational.
And he wouldn't listen to the nine hens pecking at him and cursing at him! (They admit that profanity was used.)
What a toxic-masculinity monster who won't just do what angry depraved Karens command him to do.
The jury foreperson in Lindsay Clancy's high-stakes triple murder trial detailed just how close the panel was to finding the killer mom not guilty by reason of insanity until one male holdout juror blocked the verdict."He admitted he had reasonable doubt after we watched the video of the interview," the female juror told NBC 10 Boston in an interview with two other women jury members.
As I said before, I think this is a distortion. I think he said something to try to conciliate the profanity-spraying hens like "I can understand why you say she was insane" and the crazed kid-killer fans jumped on that and took that to mean acquittal, which they were "excited" by.
"I started filling out forms, I was so excited," the woman said."There were three forms I had to fill out and I started filling them out, I wrote my signature on each one but then he said, 'But I'm still not going to say she's not guilty by reason of insanity.'"
One of the three jurors, was named Paula and is a former government contractor. Another, Kelly, is a chef in Plymouth, and the foreperson, Ronnie, is a retired fifth-grade special needs teacher.
The jurors called the holdout "arrogant" for refusing to interact with the other members and for refusing to consider their takes on the evidence in the case.
He did consider your takes. You rejected them. Like all left-wing female supremacists, when you say a man must "hear" you, you mean a man must obey you.
"He was very arrogant. He really did not take anything that anybody said," one of the women claimed.
Another said, "every one of us in the hours of our frustration would get up and walk the room because you just couldn't sit anymore. And we would all go to the cart with the exhibits. He, I think, got up to the cart once very briefly and went back to his seat."
"He would not interact with us and try to understand," she continued. "We read to him, on numerous occasions, the definition of reasonable doubt from Judge [William] Sullivan's instruction."
"But he had the hardest time getting over the fact that Lindsay viciously killed her children," she explained.
What a monster.
Meanwhile, the she-maniacs said they disregarded the prosecution's case -- see, women don't have to listen to men, men just have to listen to women -- because the prosecution wasn't "compassionate" enough to the triple child-murderess.
The jurors told the outlet the prosecution didn't show enough compassion toward Clancy -- who the jurors learned at trial struggled with crippling insomnia, anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts and thoughts of harming her kids in the four months leading up to the murders.
"I just found it to be harsh -- very, very harsh," one juror said.
"The fact that they had no character witnesses in regards to Lindsay being a bad mother ... I found it to be biased."
The foreperson said all the witnesses and evidence "proved that she loved her children ... so she had to have snapped."
The trio said they found Reddington to be "entertaining," "arrogant," "compassionate" and "funny."
"His compassion for Lindsay was amazing," one of the women said.
So, just like the highly-invested Lindsay Clancy cultists outside the court, these women feel that the Real Victim Here wasn't the three children murdered in the basement, terrified and confused about why their mother is strangling them, but the housewife these soap opera addicts obviously identified with and projected themselves on to.
You will not be surprised to learn that there were "strong personalities" in the jury room -- which I take to mean Alpha Karens who badgered and berated and shamed the other jurors into letting a child killer go free.
The panel of nine women and three men deadlocked after splitting 11-1, but one woman, identified as Juror No. 5, told local media that the holdout at the end of deliberations wasn't the only one who initially thought Clancy was guilty."The stand-alone juror was not the only one that was unwilling to see things from the other side, so I'm going to kind of defend that individual in a sense," she told the Boston-based WBZ-TV. "There were some big personalities in that room, but at the end of the day, it just came down to an inability to move past your convictions."
She, too, was originally in favor of a guilty verdict, she told the outlet.
"And maybe I still believe that in a certain way," she added. "I think that this is a woman who was not mentally healthy."
See? The Alpha Karens pressured her.
It gets worse. The "nurses on the jury" demanded the male (spit) holdout take the claims of other jurors as evidence and make his decision based upon this non-evidence.
See, there were "nurses on the jury" and their stupid uneducated opinions overrule the actual psychiatric expert who testified that Lindsay Clancy was lying about "hearing voices."
They called him "arrogant" and accused him of disregarding information from "nurses on the jury."
See, the (spit) man was arrogant. The "nurses on the jury" offering their lay opinions as expert testimony weren't arrogant. They were giving expert testimony.
Aren't all women experts, when you think about it? They have Lived Experience.
I don't know what's going to happen, guys. I don't know how we survive one-third of women now being viciously insane.
If they have a retrial -- no teachers, no "nurses on the jury." And strike as many women as possible.

Wednesday Morning Rant
—Joe Mannix
The risks associated with so-called "Big Data" - or AI, or data aggregation, or anything in that vein - are known to a point. The obvious risk - and the one most people immediately cite - is identity theft and the corresponding fraud potential associated with it. Because of this obvious risk, the response is the same every time there is a data breach: the company at the center of the breach offers to pay for credit monitoring for some amount of time. Another major risk, especially popular these days as the Flock camera argument heats up, is panopticism. These data collection services have created an electronic panopticon in which no man has privacy.
These risks are real, and they are made all the worse due to a pair of conditions: data aggregators are juicy targets, and aggregators and governments have no significant incentive to defend sensitive data. The first is obvious. These data are valuable, so the aggregators are constantly targeted for theft. As to the second, the regulatory and legal environment provides essentially no penalties for data breaches - neither for private enterprises, nor for governments. In the unusual circumstance where an actual hacker gets caught, he will be punished - but that is the point. The hacker is the one with major liability, not the organization doing the collection, retention and defense of valuable data. To the organization, there's no problem outside of a press release, some technology costs and bulk-rate credit monitoring if there's a breach. If it's particularly bad, there may be a symbolic slap-on-the-wrist regulatory penalty.

The Morning Report — 9/ 9 /26
—J.J. Sefton
Good morning kids. Let's take a jump across the pond to see what's happening in the all but vanished formerly Great Britain which, unless something drastic happens will be subsumed and transmogrified into a third world Islamic hellhole where Westminster Abbey will be converted into the next Hagia Sofia. Maybe something is happening?
Evidently there is a contingent of unknown numbers of Brits who are willing to take a stand and do whatever they can to prevent or at least forestall that nightmare from becoming reality. Of course the reason this is happening in the first place is because Britain's primarily Socialist/eftist governments that have had a stranglehold on the nation since the end of Wold War Two. that and the meat grinder of that and the previous "war to end all wars" destroyed at least two generations of British males and with it much of the civilization it was the epicenter of for well over a millennium. And so, here they are, and we are not far behind.
If these latest protests tell us anything, it’s that the British government can no longer control and redirect public opinion on immigration as it would ideally like to; the narrative is no longer the government’s to shape, and a boundary has been passed. The scale of the disaster facing Britain, the constant parade of atrocities—the murders, the rapes, and the sexual assaults—the communities living in terror, and the widespread realization that the country is changing beyond all recognition and without the consent of the British people mean the government simply cannot keep a lid on popular feeling. Not anymore. “Controlled spontaneity” was created to manage isolated incidents, not a permanent state of outrage. For decades, it was impossible to talk publicly about immigration in Britain without being labeled a “racist” and being made subject to various forms of social, legal, and extra-legal punishment. The omerta on immigration was enforced by a broader system of what Sam Francis called “anarcho-tyranny,” but we Brits call it “two-tier policing” or “two-tier government.” It’s a species of divide and conquer that’s as old as Aristotle’s Politics (read book V in particular), but it’s taken on a new shape in the hands of successive governments that seem hell-bent, whether left or “right,” on replacing their own native citizens with transplants from the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia. Daniel Thomas has promised further demonstrations. A few days before his “army of patriots” arrived in Dover, he told them they were “going to send a message.” —things are about to get very interesting.
Nothing says "workers of the world, unite" quite like gathering at a Chicago Hyatt to discuss revolution while actual hotel workers picket outside. . . Ware, an associate professor of history at UC Santa Barbara and former Green Party write-in candidate for California governor, told attendees Democrats "cannot be reasoned with" and "must be destroyed." He warned that America was approaching "gunfights" and "war in the streets." Those aren't phrases requiring a decoder ring. . . Talking about Americans shooting one another in the streets deserves a different response. Ware is free to believe the revolution hasn't gone far enough. The rest of us are free to hear exactly what he's saying.
But the mockery isn’t limited to Georgetown University’s student body. Islamic Marxist Hasan Piker recently led a live audience in mocking the “We Are Charlie Kirk” song. This is from the same man who has fantasized about murder and streets soaked in “capitalist blood.” And in the more immediate aftermath of Kirk’s death, Syracuse professors celebrated the assassination, with one saying Kirk could “rest in p-ss.” The demonic reactions could be found in the left-wing corners of the web, such as BlueSky, where leftists also cheered Kirk’s murder. Taken together, these examples (and the countless others of celebration, mockery, and revelry) show that these were not anonymous, one-off ghoulish celebrations. There is a large and loud part of the left that has little problem with Kirk’s murder — whether in the immediate aftermath or nearer to the one-year anniversary.
They want us dead and want to erase our history, heritage, memory and everything we and our ancestors have striven for since 1776 and in reality for the last several thousand years of civilizational advancement.
Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed's speech at a controversial Islamic convention in Detroit this weekend was sandwiched between a video montage featuring a firebrand imam declaring that "America is going down" and a speech from another cleric who said members of Congress who voted for an antisemitism bill were "guilty of treason." The embarrassing spectacle on Saturday underscored the awkwardness of El-Sayed participating in a conference featuring a rogues' gallery of Islamic extremists including 9/11 truthers and a Holocaust-denier. . . Shakir, who in a discussion on the 20th anniversary of 9/11 stated that he was "extremely anti-American," has also called for Muslims to use "guerrilla warfare" to achieve their desired political outcomes.
And he sounds like a typical Democrat!
On all these cheerful notes, I bid you to...
Have a good day.

This is not a photograph, and it's not an oil painting. It might be the most unbelievable watercolor ever made...It's called Sommarnöje, which means something like Summer Delight, and Anders Zorn painted it in 1886. Look at the water, the gentle ripples, the reflections, the wet sheen of it, and then look at the two people, the fine detail of the wooden rowboat, the woman's white dress, the light on her face.
It has the near-photographic realism of an oil painting, and it was done in watercolor, a medium so unforgiving that a single wrong stroke ruins the entire piece.
Zorn painted this in the first summer of his marriage: the woman in white waiting on the pier is his new wife, Emma, whom he had married only months before. They had just come back from their honeymoon and were staying with her family at Dalarö near Stockholm, still looking for the home where they would spend their life. The man rowing toward her is their friend Carl Gustav Dahlström. It is a real moment from the happiest season of a young couple's life, caught and held forever.
In 2010 this single sheet of watercolor sold for twenty-six million Swedish kronor, over three million dollars, the highest price ever paid for a Swedish painting.
In his own lifetime, Zorn was celebrated above all for two things: his handling of light, and his ability to paint water. Sommarnöje is where you see exactly why...

Gemini Rising: Lindsay Clancy's Ex-Husband Threatens Conspiracy Theorists With Defamation Lawsuits
—Disinformation Expert Ace
This is what Geminis do -- they kill, and then they sue.
That's #Science.
The ex-husband of Lindsey Clancy, Patrick Clancy, is threatening through his lawyer to pursue legal action against "so-called influencers" who have accused him of the killings and claimed he framed Lindsey Clancy for them.Patrick Clancy's attorney, Howard Cooper, said in a statement that the "relentless, escalating and destructive defamation campaign" has harmed his client's reputation and livelihood, the New York Times reported.
....
While she admitted to carrying out the killings, she pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder, arguing that she had been experiencing postpartum psychosis and heard a voice commanding her to kill the children and herself. Her trial ended last week when the jury deadlocked.

The Supreme Court ruled 8-1 that the political parties also have the same right to reduced ad rates on television before an election that candidates do.
The one holdout? The one who isn't a biologist and also still wears a mask in public.
The Supreme Court on Friday lifted a ruling that prevented party committees from accessing cheaper advertising rates in the lead-up to November's elections, siding with Republicans, for now, in an emergency case that drew staunch Democratic opposition.Federal law mandates that broadcast stations offer their lowest available rate in the 60 days preceding a general election. Everyone agrees candidates get the discount, but whether political parties and joint fundraising committees can, too, has come under question.
The court appeared to split 8-1, though the justices don't have to disclose their votes in emergency decisions publicly. The majority said that federal courts had no authority yet to intervene in the dispute.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, the court's junior liberal justice, publicly dissented. In a one-paragraph opinion, she explained the lower panel likely had authority to move ahead.
Republicans' Senate and House campaign arms -- boasting a cash advantage and backed by the Trump administration -- brought the fight to the Supreme Court after Democratic candidates sued to stop them from accessing the cheaper rate.
Democrats are suddenly suing to stop this because, of course, the RNC has a huge amount of money right now and the DNC is broke.
With the midterms less than a dozen weeks away, the Republican National Committee continues to boast a massive cash advantage over its Democratic counterpart, according to Federal Election Commission disclosures made by both committees on Wednesday.The filings, which cover the month of July, show that the Democratic National Committee had about $16 million of cash on hand at the end of the month compared with the Republican National Committee's $130 million in cash.
The DNC also has $17.9 million in debts, though the committee has reduced its debts by roughly 3 percent from the $18.5 million in debts and obligations owed at the end of June.
The Democrats' fundraising arm has been mired in money issues for months: The Washington Post reported in July that though DNC Chair Ken Martin and allies expected Democratic victories and the approaching midterms to bring major donors back, that hasn't materialized.
Michael Shellenberger @shellenbergerReporters use the label "far right" 3 to 14 times more often than "far left." The term implies that the parties opposing mass migration are undemocratic. In fact, they're winning elections. The real fascists are the ones censoring, banning, and prosecuting their enemies.
Michael Shellenberger
@shellenberger38m
Political parties that oppose mass migration are "far-right," according to most of the mainstream news media.
The Associated Press reported on Sunday that "the far-right Alternative for Germany was projected to win a strong victory in a regional election," and characterized the party as "anti-migration and Russia-friendly."
Reuters called France's presidential front-runner the "far-right candidate Marine Le Pen." AP described Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni as "the head of a far-right party" who "backs curbing migration and promoting traditional values." Euronews labeled both her Brothers of Italy party and Matteo Salvini's League as "far-right."
Others describe Reform UK as a "far-right political party" and call its head, Nigel Farage, "leader of the far-right, anti-immigration party Reform UK."
The label implies that these parties are fascist, but by the standards of scholars who study fascism, they are not.
Roger Griffin, who wrote in 2020 that members of the International Association of Comparative Fascist Studies had "broadly adopted" his definition of fascism as "a revolutionary form of ultranationalism," and that "none of the leaders of illiberal democracies are actually fascist," and that the danger of parties like the Rassemblement National "is precisely that they are NOT fascist."
Tim Bale of Queen Mary University of London noted that the term "far right" is a "loaded, weaponised term" likely to "cause confusion and controversy in equal measure."
Even Gideon Rachman of the Financial Times, who is hostile to right-wing populists, admitted in 2024 that "if a party pushes policies that liberals regard as unpleasant, reactionary or even racist but does that within the framework of democratic politics and the rule of law, the term 'far right' may no longer be appropriate." And Rachman said Meloni "to date has looked like a relatively conventional conservative in power..."

LA police decide to finally crack down on "teen takeovers" and illegal street racing.
Dozens of arrests were made and hundreds of citations were issued when the Los Angeles Police Department completed "Operation Street Sweeper" overnight, busting a Harbor Gateway street takeover.A fleet of tow trucks and buses was called to the scene to arrest drivers and spectators and impound vehicles.
According to LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell, "Operation Street Sweeper" was planned ahead of time using intelligence gathering and drone technology that helped officers predict the locations of four separate street takeovers.
The operation conducted by LAPD's Street Racing Task Force culminated in a massive scene at the intersection of South Figueroa Street and West Alondra Boulevard around 2 a.m. LAPD said over 700 people were gathered for an illegal street takeover at the intersection.
More than 150 LAPD officers were deployed to the scene and surrounded the massive gathering, taking dozens of people into custody and citing hundreds more.
In total, McDonnell said 66 people were arrested for participating in or aiding in a street race or takeover. Three additional arrests were made: one for assaulting an officer, one for battery and one for obstructing or interfering with officers.
In addition to the nearly 70 arrests, 570 citations were issued, McDonnell said. Of those 570 citations, 442 were issued for being a spectator at a speed contest or exhibition of speed. An additional 128 citations were issued for juveniles who were out past the city of Los Angeles' 10 p.m. curfew for minors. McDonnell said the youngest person was just 11 years old.
Law enforcement impounded a total of 200 vehicles from the scene, and in the process of making arrests and issuing citations, McDonnell said seven firearms were recovered. Canisters of nitrous oxide were reportedly also recovered.

Tucker Carlson: Algebra Is a Jewish Plot to Confuse the Goys by Sticking Letters Into Math
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Tucker Carlson used to posture as an intellectual. An intellectual who was not so far up his ass that he couldn't see practical reality or the real problems of citizens, but an intellectual nonetheless.
He never actually was an intellectual. But he did pose as one.
He's decided that Real Nationalist Socialism Populism requires its agitators to be dumb as Hasan Piker and now declares that nobody -- including engineers, pilots, ship captains, etc. -- really needs algebra.
It's a scam created by Jews to distract the goys while the Jews rule the world (without algebra, we assume).
Tucker Carlson has found a new hill to die on. Not only does he hate the Jews and blame Israel for every terrible thing that's happened on Earth, but he's now perplexed by the presence of letters in basic algebra. AdvertisementIn an interview released Monday, Carlson spent two hours talking to Jess Elofson, an artist, potter/ceramicist, welder, and Ford collector who lives on a farm in South Dakota. Why he deserved an interview is unclear, but the pair discussed art, beauty, politics, and, of course, why "You're good little goy slaves" if you think algebra has any real-world application. How did they come to that conclusion? Because Elofson claimed to have never used it in constructing a wood-fired kiln.
"Why does algebra put letters into numbers?" Carlson asked.
"I think just to f**k with you," Elofson said.
"So you deal with math in your job every day. You've already, I think, demonstrated your grasp of math is high"
"I mean, functional math. Yeah, yeah, for sure."
"Well, if you can build a wood-fired kiln, you understand math," Carlson said. "But you didn't add letters to numbers in the process of doing that?"
"That's the weirdest thing," Elofson replied. "Nowhere did I find any letters in my math to calculate the size and structural integrity of a cantonary arch. Isn't that weird? Oh, that was weird. Because every math teacher was always like, you need to know some algebra. I've yet to encounter a single person in my life that uses algebra."
"Actually?" Carlson asked.
"Have you?"
"Yeah, but I mean, I live in a fake world," the former Fox News host said.
"That's why you use fake math with letters. Congratulations to everybody out there in the matrix. Good job. You're good little goy slaves," Elofson said.
"That's amazing."
Of course, this is the man who claims to have the best interests of conservatism at heart, although he doesn't identify as one anymore, except when it's convenient.

More Illegal Aliens Arrested for Doing That Thing That Never, Ever Happens
—Disinformation Expert Ace
We're moving towards The Most Secure Elections in History, and the Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) don't like it one bit.
Footage obtained by Fox News Digital shows federal agents executing a sweep linked to a multi-state Department of Justice (DOJ) probe that has resulted in criminal charges against individuals for illegal voting, falsifying citizenship status and other election fraud related charges in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Wisconsin.
The charges arrive as part of a highly publicized nationwide surge by the Trump administration to hunt down election-related crimes ahead of the 2026 midterms.
Over the past year, the Justice Department has filed lawsuits against nearly 30 states to force the surrender of confidential voter rolls, while simultaneously repurposing Homeland Security Investigations (HSI)--an agency historically focused on cartels and terrorism--to spearhead a search for unlawfully registered non-citizens.
"Despite the media and Democrats claiming it never happens, the evidence of non-citizens registering to vote in our elections continues to pile up," White House spokesperson Lauren Bis told Fox News Digital. "Any non-citizens found registering to vote and voting in our elections will be held accountable. Only Americans should be electing American leaders."
...
The Justice Department announced Friday that five people--including two illegal immigrants and two non-citizens with legal status--had been federally charged with unlawfully casting ballots, falsifying citizenship status, fraudulently registering to vote and aiding and abetting during the 2022 and 2024 elections.
Some of the arrestees, according to a DOJ press release, could face up to more than a decade in prison if found guilty of providing a false statement of citizenship in order to vote and other election fraud charges they are facing.
...
Meanwhile, Homeland Security announced earlier this summer that an audit of public voter rolls had identified more than 250,000 registered noncitizens in just four states: California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Nevada.Just days ago, internal directives revealed by CNN showed Homeland Security Investigations launching a coordinated "voter fraud surge" into nine key states--including Pennsylvania and Wisconsin--to hunt down non-citizens suspected of election interference. The handful of arrests announced Friday are among the latest enforcement actions.
Very related: An illegal alien and criminal kept taunting an ICE agent by texting him that he was going to vote Democrat in the election and strip him of power and immunity.
ICE arrested him.
QThestorm @17QStorm
HE TEXTED ICE HE WAS VOTING DEMOCRAT IN THE MIDTERMS.That's how they caught him.
Honduran noncitizen. California voter roll. Already on probation for blocking an ICE building -- then he kept texting the agent that he couldn't wait for November so their immunity would be gone.
"He had no fear whatsoever harassing an ICE agent, letting him know how he's planning to vote in the midterms and wants to take their immunity away."
"That, obviously, got the agent interested to see whether he WAS registered to vote. That's how he came on their radar."
Darwin Jonathan Rivera Flores checked the citizen box on November 4, 2025. Two felonies. Deportation if convicted.

The Eternal Op Continues: "25 years after 9/11, many Muslims fear a new backlash"
—Disinformation Expert Ace
The Real Victims of 9/11 were Muslims.
Just like the Real Victims of the conquests of Spain, Constantinople, and the Balkans were the Muslims.
The morning of Sept. 11, 2001, began like any other day. Sabinah Mohyuddin was getting her kids ready for school in Clarksville, Tennessee, while her husband, a cancer physician, was still asleep.Then the first plane struck the north tower of the World Trade Center in New York City.
"I remember when it happened, because my husband always put his alarm to National Public Radio," she said. "He came running out shouting, 'Turn on the TV!'"
It wasn't clear whether the first strike was intentional. After dropping her kids off, Mohyuddin watched in horror as a second plane crashed into the south tower.
She and the rest of the nation waited in petrified anticipation for answers about who was behind the attack that killed nearly 3,000 people.
Then Mohyuddin, a Muslim, learned the hijakers also followed Islam.
"It fell on me like a heavy weight," she said. "What did this mean for the Muslim community? What did this mean for me?"
Making it all about you, and not even hiding it.
Now, 25 years after the attacks, Muslims across the country are asking the same question as they experience rising Islamophobia and concerns about their First Amendment right to religious freedom.Over 40% of U.S. adults believe Muslims are less patriotic than other Americans and that Muslim Americans are having a negative impact on the country, according to a Pew Research Center survey conducted in May.
Obviously far-right racists. There is no reason to think that there is an intense anti-American, anti-Western, and anti-Jewish strain in Islam, except, you know, for all the terrorist attacks and constant verbal attacks on the west.
But other than that -- no evidence. Must be racism.
The stigmatization, often amplified by politicians, has affected everything from immigration statuses to due process rights and everyday religious practices. Muslim leaders and community members, in turn, told the USA TODAY Network they're left fighting to defend their faith and warning the nation that its founding principles are at stake."Being Muslim doesn't make me less American," Salam Jabaieh, a Muslim woman from Arizona, said. "Those things are part of who I am, and I shouldn't have to make myself less visible or less Muslim in order to prove I belong here."
In the days after 9/11, then-President George W. Bush made public statements defending Islam and differentiating the faith from the attack.He quoted from the Quran and said "Islam is peace" during remarks at the Islamic Center of Washington, DC. Bush also met with Islamic leaders, including Nihad Awad, national executive director and co-founder of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. CAIR was established in 1994 and is the country's largest Muslim civil liberties organization.
Though Awad disagreed with many of Bush's policy positions, he told USA TODAY he saw "sincerity" and "openness" from Bush, a desire for unity amid the devastation.
But the violence that plagued Muslims and mosques in the days and years after 9/11 stood in stark contrast to those sentiments.
The first 9/11-linked hate crime came just a few days later, when an Arizona man murdered Balbir Singh Sodhi, a Sikh man who wore a turban the shooter interpreted as a sign he adhered to Islam. Muslims were killed in attacks that family members and advocacy groups tied to the spike in Islamophobia. A number of mosques were also burned to the ground or severely damaged in arson fires.
Note there are no numbers mentioned here. "Muslims" -- no number given -- "were killed in attacks." "A number of mosques" were damaged in fires.
How many?
Not many at all, or else you'd tell us the numbers.
By the way, a lot of churches are burning lately and the media doesn't seem to think that's a sign of rising ant-Christian animus.
Now comes the media's "Bush was a good man tryin' his best but Trump is a monster turn:"
But Muslim leaders described a notable shift when President Donald Trump launched his presidential campaign in 2015. He initiated what became known as the "Muslim ban" during his first term and has taken similar action since returning to office.
Federal authorities have arrested and sought to deport pro-Palestinian activists, actions that judges have deemed a First Amendment violation.
"Activists." Members of the Muslim Brotherhood openly calling for violence against Jews and Americans.
Some Republican leaders also have used rhetoric and pushed policies that have come under criticism by Muslim Americans and others. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott designated CAIR a terrorist group in 2025, which initially excluded a number of Islamic schools from a state-sponsored voucher program because of perceived affiliation with the organization, according to a lawsuit. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis also issued the designation, which a federal judge struck down in March.Such action by governors has had a trickle-down effect on local municipalities and school boards, according to Adam Abutaa, of the Muslim civic engagement organization Emgage Florida. Muslim students are less likely to feel they can freely express themselves on their campuses or to their elected officials, he said.
Really? Muslims feel they can't fully express themselves on campus?
We've seen Jews beaten by Muslims on campus. They want to "express themselves" further than that?
Saajid Khan, a 21-year-old University of South Florida student, echoed those sentiments. He was one of several students who were praying in a parking garage on campus in November 2025 when several men disrupted them, shouting profanities and taunting them with bacon − a forbidden food in Islam. The men were later charged over the incident."I think there's a lot of propaganda pushed against Muslims, which leads to an unsafe environment," Khan said.
There's a single incident of Muslims being "taunted with bacon."
How many incidents are there of non-Muslims being taunted with bullets and explosives?
The number of Americans who are dishonoring those killed by Islamic terrorists on Sept. 11, 2001 is tragic and abominable. This is from a VIP post Catherine wrote over the weekend:
My colleague Robert Spencer, an expert in Islamic history and modern jihad movements, says that there have been 49,000 Islamic jihad attacks since the 9/11 attacks in 2001. And yet only 25 years after those attacks, with nearly 50,000 terrorist incidents attributable to Islam in the time period, New York has a Muslim mayor and Americans in all 50 states claim to support Palestinian terrorists. We even have U.S. administrations funding jihadi regimes and removing terror designations from Syrian mass murderers. It's insane.
Insane and heartbreaking.
There was a brief time of unity back in 2001 that has been followed up by a quarter-century of American leftists being apologists for Islam. They're either rabid supporters of jihadi murderers or dealing with a case of mass denial the likes of which has never been seen in history. The leftists' responses to Islamic terror attacks have become routine sick jokes. We're constantly told that motives are "unclear" when "Allahu Akbar!" was the last thing people heard before they were killed. If you're sane and mention that there just might be a pattern, they all start barking "Timothy McVeigh" like trained seals.
I frequently write about the fact that American leftists live in an alternate, fictional reality. One of the biggest fictions that they peddle is that Islamic terrorism isn't a problem, but the white Christians are a powder keg that's ready to blow. It's wearisome and dangerous. When Democrats are in charge, they're never looking for the real bad guys.In another VIP post from last weekend, Robert wrote about what we can expect from the lunatic left this week:
Friday, September 11 will be the 25th anniversary of the jihad attacks that took the lives of nearly 3,000 people in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania, and the far left's propaganda arm, the establishment media, is already hard at work repeating the lesson that leftists want us to take away from this grim milestone: It was all our fault. And now, "Islamophobia" is worse than ever, underscoring the left's second big takeaway from 9/11: Muslims were the real victims.

Insanity: Female Jurors Were Crazed With Anger as Judge Ruled Lindsay Clancy Trial a Mistrial
Update: Lawyer Wants Trump to Pardon> the Child Killer
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Update: The evil defense attorney wants Trump to pardon Lindsay Clancy... for the state crimes of murdering her children.
Townhall.com @townhallcomLindsay Clancy attorney Kevin Reddington making an appeal to Trump: "Mr. President, I would hope that you would consider, this young lady, the type of person she is, what she's been through, and consider a pardon."
Does that mean he's stupid? No, just evil. He knows Trump can't pardon his psychopath child-killer client. He's just trying to expand Lindsay Clancy's Cult of Murder so that the prosecutors feel pressured to drop the case or give her a sweetheart deal.
I missed this on Friday. Maybe you did too.
After the judge said he might declare a mistrial, he suspended the trial so that the insane defense attorney could appeal his ruling to not exclude one juror for being sane to the Massachusetts Supreme Court.
But that appeal was denied -- thank goodness -- and then he declared a mistrial.
Which the Pink Ladies on the jury -- ChristyBinky tells me that several of the women were wearing pink on the jury, which is the color Lindsay Clancy's supporters outside the courtroom were wearing -- were enraged by.
How the hell were they ever allowed on the jury, or allowed to remain on the jury?
