We don’t yet know the timeline, but the Trump administration appears to be planning to use the power the Supreme Court just acknowledged to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a third-party country. 🚨 #BREAKING: ICE will be removing Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a third party country after an activist judge tries to put him on the...
In 1993, Julian Sands and Sherilyn Fenn starred in a pretty awful avant-garde movie called Boxing Helena. As the movie progressed, the psychotic obsession an Atlanta surgeon had for his neighbor resulted in amputating both her legs, and then, her arms so that she would be completely under his control. It was a horrible movie,...
You have to hand it to celebrities. Unlike most people, they are empowered to opt out of reality because money, power, and prestige give them the privilege to do so. It must be nice. On the other hand, because they can opt out of reality and because many people admire them for reasons I find...
It is easy to argue for the Fortress America vision of foreign policy. It has the virtue of simplicity. But the world is not quite as simple as we would all hope. “Fortress America” is the argument that America’s conflicts with other countries are the result of America’s willingness to intervene in other countries. Hence,...
This is one of those weird mornings where it seems like everywhere I look, there are big, bold, billboard-size illustrations of what’s wrong with the progressive brain. As if it were a primer for the rest of us, laid out neat as a pin to point to when we say, ‘There’s something wrong with them.’ ...
For the last two weeks, the Protection Racket Media has salivated over the “civil war” in MAGAworld over Donald Trump’s handling of the Iran-Israel war. Media orgs have made any debate among Republicans over the options into a sign that Trump’s support would soon collapse, and that his political leverage would dissipate with it. We...
A school in British Columbia–and God knows how many other schools in North America–distributed cards to 6th graders instructing them on how to use illegal drugs if they want to enjoy them safely. A Nanaimo mother is upset by what she found at a school-sanctioned event—drug use information cards.https://t.co/dd6C1qTXIC — CHEK News (@CHEK_News) June 21,...
In our last exciting episode of As The World Burns, a twelve-day war between Israel and Iran had ended (?) in a cease-fire brokered by Donald Trump and the Qataris. After putting some finishing touches last night’s Final Word post, I went to bed, unaware that another exciting episode was about to air. Around midnight...
Tucker Carlson is, if nothing else, a super-smart guy. Unlike many midwits in the media, he is sharp. So, for that matter, is Steve Bannon, who impresses me with his intelligence whenever I bother to listen to him. I don’t bother that often, in either case, although I often learn something when I do. That’s...
You’ve probably heard about this NY Times profile of Transportation Sec. Sean Duffy published today by the NY Times. There’s no scandal here, just the usual Gorillas In the Mist approach to people who come from a social background very different from that of the average NY Times reader. Over three decades, Americans have watched...
This was a twist on the knives that have been plaguing Europe lately, but it sure is a ghastly development and still involves stabbing – random syringe attacks. There was a nationwide music festival, the Festival of Music 2025 (Fête de la Musique), throughout France this past Saturday. For 44 years, the organizers have hosted concerts...
It was just a brief moment on a BBC broadcast, barely a second, but it made quite an impression on a lot of people. BBC presenter Martine Croxall was reading a story about “pregnant people” and made an immediate correction to the text. “London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine has released research which says...
There is nothing inherently irrational about opposing the airstrike on Iran. I think the people who do are wrong, and that many who are angry about Trump’s actions are only angry because it was Trump who took them. But there is an isolationist strain in American politics, and hence, there are some politicians whose opposition...
Nobel Peace Prize, anyone? If this actually holds up, it’d be tough to argue against it. Not long after Ali Khamenei insisted that the Iranians would never surrender under fire, it certainly looks like they just did: CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be...
