Sorry about following up on the immigration decision here, but under Althouse's new procedure, which works for me if it works for her, I am never quite sure when older threads run out:
"which requires asylum seekers to stay in Mexico while they wait for a hearing in U.S. immigration court"
Why do we consider anyone for asylum at all who is already in safe country, i.e., in a place where they are not being "persecuted," as the law appears to require?

Data from the UK, official data from their CDC equivalent The chart in the Bottom line is deaths, unfortunately not separated by age. The chart is in this substack article. A lot more unvaxxed <50 got the delta variant. A lot fewer unvaxxed >50 came down with it.
And the deaths? Quote from where I got from-"Out of the 742 deaths, 402 were fully vaccinated. 79 had received one shot. Only 253 were unvaccinated."
and a quote from the comments: "Technical Briefing 21 (the one after the one you've cited), published 5 days ago - 263 deaths from a population of 19.96 million vaccinated vs 115 deaths from 830,000 unvaccinated. Risk of death in vaccinated 1 in 76000 vs 1 in 7200 for unvaccinated."
Looks like vaccine proponents are going to defend the vaccine unto their deaths....
Sidney Powell, Lin Wood and the other "Kraken" lawyers HAMMERED in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. I do know one of the Michigan attorneys who was involved, and who helped Powell get admitted pro hac vice. A nice enough guy; who says that he helped get the lawsuit filed on just a few hours' notice, and hadn't read the whole thing beforehand. He (my Michigan legal acquaintance) always been something of a legal gambler. He's not even much of a Republican; he was a max-donor to the current (Democrat) Attorney General, who was a movant in the "Kraken" sanctions motion.
It is as true now as it ever was: everything Trump touches, dies.
And, in case anybody is thinking about an appeal to the Sixth US Circuit Court; I don't think so. This is precisely the kind of thing that Circuit Courts like to leave to the discretion of trial judges.

I believe the UK has mainly used the AstraZeneca vaccine, if not entirely. I don't think you can apply those results to the US since it is not used here.
I live most of the time in Forsyth County, GA, about 40 miles north of Atlanta. I am 70 years old and my wife and I received our two doses of Pfizer in Jan/Feb. Since the Delta variant surge started I have been checking all the state, county, and locall results daily. I also check the workload status on all the emergency rooms, which have been very busy. Most of the hospitals in this area, and extending through all the hospital systems north of here to the NC state line, are now breaking out their stats by vaccinated/unvaccinated. Across the board, for Covid patient admissions, ICU admissions, and ventilator usage, 90-95% of the patient counts are UNVACCINATED. In all of GA Public Health Region 2, which covers all these counties, exactly 3 vaccinated patients have died as of this morning. So far, these vaccines - Pfizer, Moderna, and J&J - are performing as expected, keeping vaccinated people out of the hospital and reducing the chance of death. The average age of patients at these hospitals is around 60. Other areas may have different experience but that is what we are seeing here.
Gospace Come on, let's be real, if 100% of a population is vaccinated, then 100% of covid-19 cases will be from vaccinated people. The numbers we need to be watching are how many deaths. This is what we care about. Yes, the more vaccinated means more vaccinated show up in cases. It's simple math. But the bottom line is that less people are dying or critically ill. Let's hope!
California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Vice President Kamala Harris will require those who attend their upcoming car rally to prove that they have either received a COVID-19 vaccine or have a negative COVID-19 test.
"Security and health protocols will be in place," the event description reads. "Must provide proof of vaccine or negative test within 72 hours for driver and all attendees in car."
The description also encourages attendees to bring a mask with them to the event.
Safetyism at its finest. I suspect that the attendees will also be required to keep their seatbelts on at all times as they sit in the California heat with their car engines idling and burning $4.40 a gallon gasoline to run their air conditioning. Where is Greta Thunberg when we need her? She should be saying "How dare you!" to the Democrats' carbon-burning rally.
Longtime conservative commentator, Bill Kristol, split with the GOP over President Donald Trump for all the right reasons beginning with Trump dishonesty. Now he is diving into bed with Clinton-confidante Terry McAuliffe who has a track record of milking the cow.
Perhaps you recall the saga that ended in the 2016 bankruptcy of GreenTech Automotive—the “green energy” car company that sought to profit from its ties to our former Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe, Chinese businessman Charles Wang, and (whodabelieved) Hillary Clinton’s brother, Anthony Rodham. According to papers filed in federal court, GreenTech and its sister corporations, including Rodham's Gulf Coast Funds Management — GreenTech’s “cash-for-visas” outlet—bailed from their financial obligations.
GreenTech’s bankruptcy petition recounts that the company “received investments aggregating $141.5 million from a total of approximately 283 investors,” nearly all of whom were Chinese nationals lured by the promise of permanent residency through the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Regional Center Program.
But nobody seems to know where all that money has gone, and McAuliffe and his former partners have never adequately explained its disappearance. GreenTech never spent much on employee salaries or manufacturing, let alone research and development and the company employed seventy-five people for show with no work to do, and never finished building a fully-operational manufacturing plant, and never sold a single MyCar electric vehicle.
A crony "steal-from the government venture" such as GreenTech is not an outlier. For years, taxpayers have subsidized failed businesses that rely on political connections to transfer wealth to their principals, who then walk away without consequences while leaving others to pick up the pieces. It is time to get the government and the American taxpayer out of the business of picking economic winners and losers.
It is amazing that Bill Kristol approves of this crook.
Re: COVID vaccine hospitalization and death rates. Here in Ohio, 97% of hospitalized COVID cases are unvaccinated. 99% of deaths are unvaccinated. My colleagues in other states report similar numbers.
"It is amazing that Bill Kristol approves of this crook." No it's not. Not anymore. Look at Chuck the Republican that posts on this site. He is just like Bill Kristol. TDS affected the lot of them. They need to seek help.
"It is amazing that Bill Kristol approves of this crook."
It's only amazing if you equate disliking Trump with being of good character. They aren't the same. Don't let your political prejudices color your perceptions of other people. Kristol was always a fake conservative, no matter what his view of Trump is.
Did anyone else see Sec. Blinken's most recent press conference?
He looked like a sad and demoralized child, the embodiment of our national humiliation. Unlike his boss, he's not demented, and has enough smarts to realize the magnitude of our defeat.
But he should still speak with confidence and authority. Instead, something greater than the Peter Principle is at work here.
And now a bomb went off in Afghanistan. I wonder how many Americans were killed on Joe Bidens watch. THIS is on HIM. All so he could gleefully celebrate getting us out of Afghanistan before 9/11. Now on 9/11, the Taliban will be celebrating what an imbecile we installed as the President of the United States. They got EVERYTHING they wanted plus an Airforce, and great weapons to kill us with.
Kai Akker: "Irving Kristol -- journeyed from left to right.
Bill Kristol -- journeyed from right to left.
The purest of speculations -- Bill got tired of putting on the show for his father, once his father was gone?"
I disagree. The neocon offspring (Kristol, Goldberg, Podhoretz, et al) along with the Establishment Conservative Inc buffoons (George Will, who is a proud atheist, David Brooks, Max Boot, for examples) were always aligned policy wise with the democraticals but stuck with the republicans as long as the republicans refused to fight any democratical policy impacting the social wars and continued to act as a handmaiden to big business (not small/medium businesses) and forever wars to enrich the MIC.
Controlled "opposition" non-real-opposition to the democraticals.
As soon as the republican base moved away from surrender on social issues and being lackeys to big businesses that themselves despise the republican base voters along with opposition to "make Big Defense contractors rich"/forever wars then the neocons and fakecons moved seamlessly to where they have always belonged: the far left of the democratical party.
Which is why that miniscule % of the republican party base that identified with these morons (approx 1 to 2%) represent about 99% of all establishment media "conservative" positions: the lefties have been running a disinformation operation with these idiots for 50 years.
gadfly: "It is amazing that Bill Kristol approves of this crook."
As with our resident pro-marxist LLR Chuck, Bill Kristol approves of any and all democraticals, any and all of their policies (without exception) and any and all actions those democraticals take.
For instance, the hack obama lawfare judge in the Powell/Wood case in MI, Judge Linda V. Parker, is the perfect example of a corrupted jurist who will always use the power of her position to advance her political preferences, which is why eventually she will be overruled in this particular case.
Now, LLR Chuck doesn't think so, but then you have to understand LLR Chuck's position which included the astonishing declaration that he made just yesterday that Donald Trump should be prosecuted by the DOJ based solely on assessment of Trump's secret inner thoughts for not declaring himself a formal candidate for 2024 and following the laws as written that govern what actions are legal as a non-declared (candidacy) individual.
Yes, you read that correctly, our pro-marxist LLR Chuck was literally calling for Trump to be prosecuted for following the law but having secret plans for declaring himself a candidate later which, in marxist LLR Chuck world, means Trump should be treated as a declared candidate by the DOJ today and then prosecuted for violating candidate financial reporting rules now even though Trump is actually not an official candidate!
LOL
Again, just let that literal corrupted lunatic leftist insanity wash over you.....
This is par for the course for our resident pro-marxist LLR Chuck who just 2 days ago referenced a supposed "Stormy" "problem" for Trump.....which comes long after the courts ruled that Stormy and LLR Chuck adored Avenatti had to pay Donald Trump $294,000 for their bogus lawsuit which was based on transparent lies against Trump.
Here's an interesting headline from the UK today where all papers are slamming the horrific and undeniable "performance" of our child-groper Dementia Boy Installed-*"President":
The UK Shadow Secretary Raab Pressure told Sky News HUNDREDS of stranded civilians are being shot at, beaten, turned away at checkpoints by Taliban terrorists in Kabul."
Remember, LLR Chuck told us yesterday, just yesterday, that NONE of these details matter!!
LOL
Apparently, the UK officials and ALL the other officials from allied nations do consider these "details", including the suicide bombings targeting their citizens, as "mattering".
Who could have seen that coming? Reality diverging from LLR Chuck's daily lies?
Besides every breathing and sentient human being, I mean.
This just in (pay attention LLR Chuck and George "Walrus Sans Tusks" Conway:
Lucas Tomlinson @LucasFoxNews · 39m BREAKING: At least 3 U.S. troops wounded in suicide bombing outside Abbey Gate at Kabul airport: U.S. officials
According to LLR Chuck, this is absolutely meaningless and not a big deal at all and shouldn't even be spoken of............but its clear the entire rest of the world disagrees.
More bad news for LLR Chuck: it now appears certain that Adam Kinzinger's years long audition to become an official democratical (vs simply being a democratical with a fake "R" after his name for those years) did not pay off and this fake republican will be losing his seat in the democratical Illinois congressional district gerrymander.
Looks like our Li'l Adam is going to have lots more opportunities for real, actual tear-filled events after his nearly Emmy award winning fake crying during the democraticals corrupted fake January 6 "investigation".
Many LLR's will be right there with him weeping uncontrollably.

A harsh judgment but the sorting process bears you out. Maybe using politics as a professional wellspring drains it of too much of its essential meaning -- too long a time acting a role for the cameras has rendered players like some of those names voids.
Funny that Gertrude turned out to be the true conservative of the Kristol family. Love her rediscovery of Victorian virtues. Overdue for more widespread adoption in this society, and will get it, IMO.
I knew you would do that. Ohio is counting back to January 1st. For almost half the year, most Ohioans were not vaccinated. What are the numbers in the last month? I ask because the way you wrote your earlier comment implied the same percentages right at this moment.
Let me update you on the reality- the vaccines are waning- look to Israel for the US probably will look like a month from now and this Winter.
