But no problems afterward and now everything is beautifully washed and watered and more summer is coming on. Wisconsin summer - the best. Ice coffee. Crickets.; 9/13/22, 6:56 PM
Lurker21 said...: Taylor Lorenz is having a feud with some MSNBC host who misgendered or deadnamed one of her colleagues. Reading the story and looking at the pictures, I'm at loss as to what the colleague, Kate Sosin, is or what she was, and "trans" can mean so many things nowadays, that "mistakes" (if that's what they are) are naturally going to be made.

Framing John DeLorean looks to be a very good documentary (if you can stand Alec Baldwin).; 9/13/22, 6:57 PM
Buckwheathikes said...: Wow.

Kenneth Starr dies today and nothing from Althouse on one of the Supreme Courts most prolific attorneys? The only man to ever stop Hillary Clinton?

If you wind back the tapes, you'll see Hillary Rodham Clinton with her fingers in every major crooked political scandal since the impeachment of Richard Nixon, up to and including the attempted assassination of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh a few months ago.

Almost half a century of calumny by this one angry bitch put on pause by Kenneth Starr during the impeachment of her pedophile Epstein-buddy husband for perjury and obstruction of justice.

And it passes in silence?

Gospace said...: Fourth try

So my son was swatted- sort of- the other day. A Karen called the cops because they spotted he was carrying. He has learned from experience that if you need to draw your weapon- you need it quickly and can't spend time fumbling through layers of clothes to get it. Combat instills that knowledge quickly. So while carrying concealed, it's not always completely hidden. So local cops show up, and he shows them his federal law enforcment badge- he can carry in NY without Dictator Hochul's permission and without a NY carry permit. The local cop answering the call explained to the Karen he was federal law enforcement and allowed to carry- But he should be in uniform! loud enought for others to overhear. She didn't believe that plainclothes police stop more active shooters then uniformd police... gun ignorance is wodespread among liberals.

But Dictator Hochul's edict that cops in NY should consider anyone with a gun in violation of the law until proved innocent turns the Constitution upside down. And is going to get some innocent killed. Very possibly a federal law enforcement officer and most likely by an affirmative action hire ar a Somali immigrant with a badge and a uniform. Or a cop just having a bad day and wanting to shoot someone to make up for it.

No Civil War or Revolutionary War battle reenactments in NY anymore thanks to new gun laws. If you voted for a Democrat at any level of government- you voted to end historical battle rennactments- because it was Democrats who banned them and not one, anywhere, at any level of government, has spoken out against the bans.

rcocean said...: Kenneth Starr was a Nevertrumper. So, fuck that guy.

Not only that. He was your typical Republican panty-waist. He just wanted to be Fair, man. Respect the Presidency. Just wanted to look into Bill Clinton's misdeeeds, but not too hard and not ruffle any feathers. OTOH, Judge Lawerance Walsh went after Reagan like Captain Queeg went after Moby Dick. Six years after iran-contra Walsh was keeping Iran-Contra in the News.

Starr, OTOH, wanted to quit as soon as he could. In fact, if Matt Drudge had not existed, I doubt Starr would've done anything.

Of course, like all these moderate wimpy "reasonable" Republicans, he found out that Left hates your guts if you cross them. It doesn't matter if you have the facts on your side. Or, you're just doing your job. Go one inch over the line, or a mile. They hate you and want you destroyed.; 9/13/22, 8:33 PM

Yeah, vote Republican guys. They'll give you abortion, open borders, Amnesty, cuts in Social security troops back in Afghanistan, AND tax cuts for the rich.

Actually, Epstein's lead attorney was Alan Dershowitz, another noted pedophile who spent a lot of time with Epstein and his little girls and who has been a frequent attorney for Hillary Clinton.

The only evidence that Starr represented Epstein is an obscure Wikipedia insertion with no sources.; 9/13/22, 8:49 PM

Armenia Requests Russian Military Assistance As Fighting Breaks Out With Azerbaijan

Dictatorships fall slowly, then they fall fast.

Given the current events in Russia the fast part is coming for Putin soon.

Public officials are calling him out knowing they will get arrested and they continue to call him out even after others get arrested.

The Russian military is getting routed.

I’m continually amazed at the depths of Deep State depravity. Hillary and the DNC hired a former British spy to dig up rumor and innuendo about Trump using a Russian who was actually working for the FBI to whom the “dirt” was served up as Trump being a national security threat. And the present fuzzy allegations are the same dire national security bullshit. Defund the FBI and repeal the Patriot Act.; 9/13/22, 11:02 PM
gadfly said...: Rep. Carolyn Maloney, a Democrat servicing Manhattan's 12th District, has sent a letter to Acting Archivist Debra Steidel Wall as part of a pre-existing inquiry into Trump’s stolen documents.

"I urge NARA to seek a personal certification from Donald Trump that he has surrendered all presidential records that he illegally removed from the White House after leaving office. I also ask that the agency conduct an urgent review of presidential records recovered from the Trump White House to assess whether presidential records remain unaccounted for and potentially in the possession of the former president."

This request from Maloney gives Steidel Wall cause to intervene and to do so on a fairly urgent timeline. She has a legitimate request from Congress, outside of the control of Aileen Cannon after all!

The place where NARA would be required to intervene is in the District of Columbia's Federal Court, per the Presidential Records Act, not in Florida - which may be the entire point of Maloney’s letter.

Yes, there are several legitimate ways around TFG's Loose Cannon judge centered around the DC District Court of Judge Beryl Howell, who is overseeing the grand jury and other elements of the investigation that led to seeking the search warrant in the first place.; 9/14/22, 3:31 AM
Ann Althouse said...: "Ann does not have to knock out a blog post on every breaking event."

Thanks, Carol.

I don't blog ever famous-person death. If you tried to analyze the death-announcement posts in the 18-year history of this blog, I would guess you might find some factors like this:

1. I feel a personal connection, based on my life experience or a special respect for what this person has done (e.g., Godard, blogged today).

2. There's something interesting about the way the person died (so, not an old person dying of old age).

3. I'm pretty much learning about the person from the obituary, so I'm not really blogging that someone has died but that this person existed.

4. The death is a factor in ongoing news that I'm blogging about.; 9/14/22, 4:43 AM

Jaq said...: Putin got played.

In 2014, we, John Bolton style, installed a government in Ukraine dominated by Nazis (I you want to argue about this historical fact, don't bother reading the rest). We chose Nazis for a reason, it wasn't just because that was the material we had to work with. Nazis are willing to do what our side thinks is necessary, and they have a burning hatred for Russians.For eight years these Nazis waged a brutal war against the ethnic Russians in Ukraine, killing 14,000 civilians (another historical fact)

Putin gave that speech that boiled down to him declaring himself the protector of the Russian people, which showed the world his weakness. World leaders must be completely amoral, he cared about something, it's like in a movie when the bad guys kidnap a kid the hero likes, and uses his love for the child as a weapon, except this is no movie. Putin piles up troops on the Ukrainian border, as a planned invasion, or just a show of force? Who can know? We set our Nazi proxies to work attacking ethnic Russians, starting an offensive against ethnic Russians while Putin's army is right on the border. He takes the bait.

Putin's army, despite the non stop propaganda that Nazis are famous for, worked very hard to minimize casualties, so as not to create a permanent enemy on Russia's border. The US said "We'll just see about that!" and has forced Russia to fight more and more viciously, because our goal is a Ukraine with a. burning hatred for Russia, not just the Nazis. We want every Ukrainian to know somebody killed by Russia. So rather than simply negotiating a deal where NATO keeps its weapons away from Russia's border, as the Soviets did in the Cuban Missile Crisis, we refused all negotiations. I am sure some slogan like "Slava Ukraine" comes to mind as a "reason" why such negotiations are "out of the question!" Well, Putin thought, given the reasonableness of his demands, that the US would do what the Soviet did, and back away from the brink. Another weakness exploited by the US.

Also, while Americans think of "scorched earth" as an offensive tactic, because of our civil war, it is almost always a defensive tactic, to inflict harm on an invading army by denying it resources. We are ensuring that Ukraine's infrastructure is destroyed, we can afford to fix it if we win, Russia can't.

Russia's war aims are in tatters, and if they are going to win, they are going to have to use US "Iraq style" tactics where civilian suffering just doesn't matter, the dream of a neutral Ukraine is over. Yes, Putin is in a lot of political trouble right now, not for invading Ukraine, he would have been deposed had he let NATO simply waltz into Ukraine, which Biden's letter of November last paved the way for. He is in trouble for messing up the war, and he will not be replaced by some stooge like Yeltsin, hand picked by the CIA, but by a hard-liner with fond memories of Stalin.

And yes, Russia has 6,000 nukes. Rumors are that they have nuclear tipped anti missile missiles, they have prove themselves in this war quite adept at shooting down missiles, BTW. They also have nuclear powered and nuclear bomb laden stealthy torpedos that they can launch from anywhere and that can cross the ocean and park themselves in our harbors and do a lot of damage to our major cities. Russians have a doctrine that they might lose a nuclear war, but they will make damn sure that nobody else can win one.

Britain rid itself of Roman rule when the empire collapsed back in Rome and the armies simply left. No North American power is going to rule Eurasia after a nuclear war, when the sky is so full of space junk that satellites won't be able to operate in space for decades and the US is going to have plenty to keep itself busy at home.

Mearshaum predicted that our policy was going to leave Ukraine "wrecked," and our Neocon elites said "what's your point?"; 9/14/22, 4:55 AM

William50 said...: Some things never change.

"The abuse of power occurs when –

a)identification of what is working or not working is done by leaders. People’s experiences are not used to help define reality, which is assessed only from the perspective of those on top.

b)what the people need is determined by the leaders. The authority figure decides what the real problem is.

c)leaders are the only ones who know how to get things done. . . .

d)communication is one-way: from leaders to subordinates. All communication originates at the top and is passed down through the ranks. . .

e)accountability is one-way: up from people to leaders. . .

f)opportunity for leadership is reserved for certain types of people, often based on race, gender, or religious affiliation."

A pro-life lady went on the Dr. Phil show and really kneecapped him. My highlight is from the video where "Dr." Phil tried to filibuster the woman's chance to speak.

He got mad that she "talked over" him but he was just blabbering about stuff people already know and wouldn't answer her question which was pertinent.

She asked him “If it isn’t a human life in the womb, why do you have to kill it?”

The lady did a good job addressing the rape angle too about not punishing the baby for generational sins.

The video clips were good and the woman did a good job framing the issue from the pro-life point of view. This woman was setup by Dr. Phil to get destroyed. And he tried to block her out as well.

A large number of people in this country will live in a bubble and never see or address these discussions in a real way. The only way you can actually see discussions like this is to get outside the sources that the beautiful people present for us.
