Early might be best timing as the energy that causes the northern lights hit mid day today.
Last night was the brightest I have ever seen them in WI. Had one pillar reaching up over our heads but just glorious pinks.
The May 9, 2024 one lit up for more of the sky, had more colors and phenomena I didn't see last night, but we're by far the best I have seen from my city driveway.
Save aurora steps, check the website for what's going on.
The aurora was visible in north Alabama last night. Mostly red hues, but still impressive. I’ll be watching for them again this evening.
Just spent the day traveling, and at the airport this morning, I bought an egg burrito, and gak! it was made with powdered eggs! I know because we used to eat them as kids, the USDA kind, but after we rebelled, mom agreed to mix them half and half with real eggs. So I paid full price with an airport premium for the same crap they gave out to poor people before Food Stamps. Then I stopped at a diner on landing, and ordered a three egg omelette, to get the taste out of my mouth, and to share with my traveling companion, it cost $24 and if it was three eggs, it was three quail eggs, and maybe half a slice of cheese, and of the ingredients I selected, which all cost money, it seems like they were just waved by the omelette, like the vermouth in one of Hawkeye's martinis on M*A*S*H.
No wonder the penny is doomed, whatever the courts say.
Just finished reading A Day In The Life Of Ivan Denisovich about one man's day, from waking in the morning to going to sleep at night, in a Soviet work-prison for political prisoners. A great book, easy read, written with the straightforward prose of a Hemingway plus the workingman patois of a Celine, detailing the brutality and humanity in inhuman conditions.

Shame it's raining/snowing/sleeting.
Thanks for the book mention.. I'll look for it. I liked "Under the Frog" About some young guys in Hungary, back in the day.
meanwhile newsom's former chief of staff gets indicted,
White House signals it will cut tariffs to help ease high food prices ~ FT
'Officials indicate changes coming to levies on imported goods including coffee and bananas'
So tariffs are inflationary ...
This will crush the US coffee and banana industries, especially in Trump voting states like North Dakota.
Trump raises tariffs which drive prices up, then lowers tariffs to lower prices. Kind of like setting a house on fire, then rushing to put it out and expecting a reward. Isn't that what arsonists often do?
My wife the night owl informed me this morning that the Lights had been seen and photographed here last night, only not by her--she went out late, and we don't have great sightlines from here toward the NW.
Will go out after a while and see what is seeable. Always wanted to see the aurora, but thought I'd have to travel . . .

I'm old enough to remember the joke used to be that a politician couldn't get caught in bed with a "dead girl or a live boy" or it would end a career. This isn't womanizing, it's the straight up pedo fever dream they have been screaming about forever. Only it's real. And it's POTUS himself.

Trump administration holds Situation Room meeting over House effort to force release of all of DOJ’s Epstein files ~ CNN
Trump rushing Pam Bondi, Patel, Boebert and the rest of his team into the actual Situation Room to talk about the Epstein files is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard. Tip of the hat to whichever CNN reporter got that exclusive.
So, if you're Trump, what exactly do you say to Boebert when she asks why it's so important to you to hide the Epstein files from the public? Do you bother giving an explanation, or do you just skip straight to the threats?
This better be in the next South Park episode. 🤣
’Only it's real. And it's POTUS himself.’

Can you imagine that? They don't care.
"I just made a motion to bring it straight to the dadgum floor and they blocked it. They blocked it!"
"I tried to do unanimous consent, tried to get the Epstein files, get it straight to the floor to cut out all this nonsense. And, you know, and the Democrats blocked it oddly enough!"
"Now here they've had it for four years and they, obviously, if there was something there about Trump, they would have released it."
"This is politics. It has nothing to do with doing what's right!"
"And it's Washington DC to a T. And again, they ought to be ashamed of themselves, but they're probably not." - @timburchett

This is obviously fake news. We’ve been told on this very thread that Trump’s guilt is proven in those files. The only explanation is that the Dems, like Kamala, are playing three dimensional chess. I don’t see how Trump can win…

“Democrats BLOCK Rep. Tim Burchett's motion to bring the Epstein Files to an immediate House floor vote.”
“Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters at the Capitol tonight that he was going to put the resolution to release the Epstein files to a vote on the House floor next week. It came after a failed effort by Representative Tim Burchett, Republican of Tennessee, to fast-track bringing up the legislation.
Burchett attempted to do so using a procedure called “unanimous consent,” which would not have required lawmakers to go on the record in a roll call vote.”

Why doesn’t Tim Burchett want lawmakers to go “on record”?
There's a pony down there somewhere, Inga !
“This will crush the US coffee and banana industries, especially in Trump voting states like North Dakota.”

’Why doesn’t Tim Burchett want lawmakers to go “on record”?’

“Prosecutors … told Epstein that if he said President Trump was involved with Esptein’s crimes he would walk free. in a petition to be pardoned,” Tartaglione claims in a pardon application filed in July and obtained by The [New York] Post.
Epstein told me that [lead prosecutor] Maurene Comey said that he didn’t have to prove anything, as long as President Trump’s people could not disprove it. According to Maurene Comey, the FBI were ‘her people, not his [President Trump’s],’ ” the filing states. - New York Post
This is just an all hands smear job to distract the base from their craven collapse on their shutdown.
Doesn't this sound about right?

Because I haven't seen a lot of "proof" I keep seeing innuendo, but when you ask "where's the beef" you just get more baseless innuendo and vague claims made without evidence.

Yeah, wheat. Especially "winter wheat", which can grow under a couple of feet of snow.
The "Chorus" line kicks in unison and chants the same refrain, and never gets into any discussion of specifics.
"Chorus" is a program to pay influencers to post on social media, and one of the stipulations is that they must never admit to it. But the way I see it, if our trolls were genuinely interested in discussion, they would address the points being made against them, but, well...
If Trump is losing support from his base, it's for his war mongering and caving to the tech billionaires on H1-B visas, this kind of baseless smear campaign just reminds people why they voted for him in the first place.
Dave Smith was talking about the rapid evaporation of Trump's support from younger voters.
Yes, recent polling data from 2025 indicates that Donald Trump is significantly losing support from voters under 30, a demographic where he had made notable gains in the 2024 election.
Key findings from various polls include:
Approval Rating Collapse: His net approval rating among 18- to 29-year-olds has dropped sharply since he began his second term, with one YouGov/Yahoo poll showing a fall from a positive rating in January 2025 to -41 points by June 2025.
Largest Drop of Any Age Group: The decline in approval among young voters is more significant than in any other age demographic, a loss of more than 20 percentage points in some cases.
"Buyer's Remorse": The shift suggests "buyer's remorse" among young people who voted for him in 2024. The initial support was partly based on an appeal to a "vibe" or a sense that he was the "men's candidate," but this has faded due to current economic concerns and disappointment with his performance.
Key Issues: Dissatisfaction with the economy (inflation, cost of housing), job availability, and his handling of specific issues like the Jeffrey Epstein case and tariffs are major factors in the eroding support.
Gender and Race Shifts: While young men were a key part of his 2024 gains, their support has also declined. Young Black and Latino men, who showed increased support for Trump in 2024, are now more anti-Trump than they were then.
This trend indicates a significant challenge for Trump in maintaining the gains he made with younger voters during the 2024 election cycle.
The reason that our Democrat friends don't attack Trump on war mongering, or on H1-B visas, is because they support the endless wars and kowtowing to the tech billionaires themselves, which just goes to show that Trump is the only choice.
"They eat bananas and drink coffee in North Dakota I'm sure , but neither is grown commercially there."
Don’t forget the flourishing cocoa plantations in places like Alabama as well! 🤣
“What does that have to do with the Dems blocking an immediate floor vote?”
Because Democrats want the names of who voted how to be visible to the American people.
So tariffs lead to higher prices then? And higher prices are paid by consumers, right?
Higher prices are paid by consumers, right?
I can't wait to hear the excuses for Trump's failing popular culture with the youthful:
Liberal poll, bullshit numbers
Doesn't matter, only elections count
Doesn't matter, we don't need fickle voters
Doesn't matter, young people won't vote
Waddabout the lower poll numbers for Democrats in Congress
“Yes, recent polling data from 2025 indicates that Donald Trump is significantly losing support from voters under 30, a demographic where he had made notable gains in the 2024 election.”
He’s also losing support with Hispanics and Blacks.
Epstein: "I got nothing on Trump."
Headline: "Epstein Names Trump!"
No, Kak. The tariffs are paid by bazillionaires whom are honor bound to not pass on those costs to consumers.
With all that money pouring in from Bezos, Soros and Muskos, Trump can pass on those taxes to the taxpayers.
Win win win. So much winning, especially among the right wing media who continue to own the libs on TikTok.

Dumb monkey is a humorless dolt and didn’t understand that Kak was being sarcastic. It was quite funny.
My biggest concern about Trump failing to keep his campaign promises and losing support is that it'll just encourage the DNC to double down on their Potomic Two-step schtick.

Wait what? The Dems don't want the truth- they want the hearsay, the lies, the inuendo, with their cult-base inventing fake stories built with years of Trump-hate mental illnesses.

Dumb Monkey George will be along shortly to tell Kak that Alabama doesn’t grow cacao beans, LOL!

We’re not allowed to talk about that… ;)
The open Congress voting on Epstein effects the distribution of AIPAC money and intelligence. I predict no bulk release of raw/lightly redacted Epstein file.
Remember folks, Inga, Howard, Kak and the rest are all screaming about "Trump is guilty of Epstein!!!! REEEE!" but they told us ad nauseum to vote for Hillary... and Hillary repeatedly invited Epstein to stay at their ranch in New Mexico. This was known before the 2016 election, and every single Democrat including Inga swore it didn't matter then. We still needed to vote Hillary.
Fast forward. We still hear them screaming about Trump and Epstein... but when they watched videos of Joe Biden literally molesting underaged girls, groping them and fondling them... they told us it doesn't matter and we should vote for Joe the Groper. Remember Hunter's laptop, filled with pictures of the Biden family running around with naked ten year old girls and references to "Pedo Pete?"
Democrats like Inga didn't want us to know about Pedo Pete, and certainly didn't want us to not vote for Joe because he molests little kids. That was juuuuust fine with Inga and Kak and the rest. Maybe worth a "tsk tsk, Joe will be joe" but not vote for the child molestor? Inga would never, ever want that!
But now... oh boy, but now when they can claim that Trump is involved with Epstein, just trust them, please, and never ever look at the actual evidence, just take their word for it? We should impeach and execute Trump right now, no need for a trial!
If only Trump actually went on camera like their good buddy Joe Biden to molest children, then Democrats would be cheering instead of having the vapors.....
“Remember folks, Inga, Howard, Kak and the rest are all screaming about "Trump is guilty of Epstein!!!! REEEE!" but they told us ad nauseum to vote for Hillary...”
I didn’t vote for Hillary, but you know who did? Althouse.
“REEE!”
Vance you always sound like you’re moments away from having a stroke.
I never watched soap operas back in the day, and now I wake up to one every day. I don't know who writes his stuff, but it sure does have us all tuning in, even with the commercials, which have changed into programming that perfectly mimics real life. Kudos to whoever produces this stuff. You have a hit on your hands.
Please, Inga: no one on earth believes that you didn't vote for Hillary. If you didn't, it was because you were voting for some truly far left monster. Someone who openly ran on sending every Republican to the gulag or something. Like, say, the Democrat who just was elected in Virginia as their chief law enforcement officer... a true Heimlich Himmler of the modern fascist Democrat party.
You certainly didn't vote for Trump!
“Dumb Monkey George will be along shortly to tell Kak that Alabama doesn’t grow cacao beans, LOL!”
“We’re not allowed to talk about that… ;)”
Oh if ONLY they did grow cacao beans in Alabama! America would have to learn from the Swiss how to make great chocolate.
"I didn’t vote for Hillary, but you know who did? Althouse."
We all makes mistakes when we're young, but that's AWFL.
"Seriously, we need to release the Epstein list, that is an important thing." ~ JD Vance
"What possible interest would the US government have in keeping Epstein’s clients secret? This is insane. Release the names." ~ JD Vance
Before the election, MAGA supporters said their top issues were ending inflation and releasing the Epstein files. Now they say their top issues are starting a war with Venezuela and naming the Washington Commanders’ new stadium after Trump.
“You certainly didn't vote for Trump!”
Absolutely right! Now calm down, the veins on your forehead are bulging and throbbing.
Oh, and Inga?
Althouse isn't here hyperventilating and screeching over how awful Trump is for his Epstein thing (which, curiously, is always just leftist allegation without any actual, you know, evidence)... unlike you leftists who swore how much better Hillary and Bill Clinton were than Trump.
Apparently Kak never met a MAGA supporter.
Seriously dude, do ever get anything right, even by accident maybe?
Inga, I note, did not bother to address the fact that she gleefully voted for the on camera child molestor Joe Biden. Which I recall that numerous people pointed out to her that Joe Biden is on camera molesting little girls... and Inga and others on the left did not care one whit.
That "D" behind the name means you get a free pass to abuse and molest children all you want in the eyes of Inga, Howard, Kak, and so forth.
👆 Whether it's Hillary Clinton sending emails to her staff saying "please print" or Donald Trump sending letters to Jeffrey Epstein alluding to child rape, both candidates sent some questionable messages to people that they knew.
’America would have to learn from the Swiss how to make great chocolate.’
We certainly agree on that…
“Before the election, MAGA supporters said their top issues were ending inflation and releasing the Epstein files. Now they say their top issues are starting a war with Venezuela and naming the Washington Commanders’ new stadium after Trump.”

You know when Trump gets into a fight with Laura Ingraham, the end is near…😬
The best part about Inga voting for Biden, is traveling back in time to the primary. Inga was horrified at how old and obviously decrepit old Joe was (a rare moment of clarity from Inag!@)
But as soon as the mob picked Biden as their puppet - Inga fell in line.
That is downright hilarious.
BTW - there are clues as to why Newsum was loyal to Biden. Newsum kissed Biden's butt flaps and kissed Biden's ring - to indicate loyalty. Why? The mob-left reward loyalty.
Now it's trial balloon time for loyal slick burn-down Newsum.
People wondered if Joe asked for help with washing anything, or helped to wash another, then some voted for him. It was worth it to get "sharp as a tack" in the job rather than someone with a lifetime of running large operations with thousands of employees, a drug-free family of successful impressive children who could bath themselves before 12, and a war-free previous term.
Inga completely ignoring her full fledged support of Joe Biden, child molester. Not surprising, is it.
She knew about Joe molesting his own underaged daughter... and told us to vote for Joe. She knew about Joe groping every little girl he could get his hands on... she told us to vote for Joe. She knew about Pedo Pete and Hunter's pictures of naked little girls around men who looked awfully like Joe Biden... and told us to vote for Joe.
Now she wants us to hang Trump because she claims.... what, no one actually knows, since there's no evidence at all, but Trump Epstein.
The raging hypocrisy is stunning. And not just Inga: Kak, Howard, the rest are all the same.
Inga - unlike your creepy unison-think scripted loyal Potemkin Village Soviet Party --
Conservatives sometimes disagree on stuff.
Take your pills and chug your wine, Igna.
Once again, you are losing it.
I especially loved all the left saying "Trump raped that woman who couldn't remember the decade it happened in and never, ever told anyone about it! 100% certain! Believe all women! Except, you know, don't believe the former Joe Biden staffer who can name the date and the place and who can produce evidence from others that Joe raped her! We love Joe Biden, rapist! And never, ever, ever, ever put Joe on trial for anything! He might be found guilty, and we cannot have that!"
But it's Trump who is the uniquely moral evil one... all Democrats are just naturally the best ever, because that magic "D" makes them better than St. Peter and the apostles! Or even Jesus Himself. Just ask Inga.....
Very surprised by the following:
1. The Look by Michelle Obama is #18 on Amazon’s best seller list. I figured it would zoom to #1 and stay there. But the direction is down and not up. Sales are supposedly as expected and of course #18 is nothing to complain about but I thought it would do better.
2. 109 Days by Kamala Harris is doing much better than I expected. It’s at #29, so still in the top 100. Way to go Kamala.
What's so "practical" and "facilitated" about something that kept not happening? We'd have been waiting forever. At this point, the nickel needs to go too.
Thoughts and kisses hardest hit. (see Tavares song)
Cleanup in Aisle 7…cleanup in Aisle 7… some guy is screaming and throwing eggs at shoppers, calling them all “Inga”.
Inga doesn't want to address her hypocrisy, naturally. No one is buying it, Inga.
Anyone who supported rapist child molester Joe Biden cannot say a word about anything Trump and Epstein. Especially since it's all smoke and innuendo, and no facts.
The facts are that Trump kicked out Epstein and banned him for his actions. HIllary invited Epstein to stay, multiple times, at their house, and Bill posed for painting for old Epstein. Nary a word of complaint or hyperventilating yet from a single Democrat about that....
Little inconvenient truth for Democrats there.
And you have to love Inga calling for my posts to be censored since there's one person that repeatedly has been banned by Althouse... and it's not been me.
AI's southern twang is better than Jack Schlossberg's.
“And you have to love Inga calling for my posts to be censored since there's one person that repeatedly has been banned by Althouse... and it's not been me.”
Huh? Who wants you censored? Not me. This is an example of Vance imagining something that isn’t true, yet he runs with it with his hair on fire.
“That’s not a “forehead”, igna. Say “ahh!”…”
Pervert. Ew.
I want the Epstein files released with as few national security redactions as possible, and with zero redactions for the clients. I don’t believe there will be any of our politicians implicated, as Epstein was clearly an intelligence asset and our politicos would have been directly or indirectly informed to avoid the trap. But, let’s make it all public, and let the creeps be humiliated and severely punished.
“Dave Smith was talking…”
Comedian Dave Smith?
Hosebeast igna…
“I want the Epstein files released with as few national security redactions as possible, and with zero redactions for the clients… But, let’s make it all public, and let the creeps be humiliated and severely punished.”
I agree with this part of your comment. Get it out there and let the chips fall where they may…no matter who is involved.
Must admit - Newsum is pretty awesome.
"Bill Gates hung out with Epstein before and AFTER Epstein became a convicted sex offender. His relationship with Epstein is even said to have played a role in his divorce.
Any Democrats mentioning his name? Of course not. They wouldn’t dare."
There is not "list" - Epstein had a phone book.
Sweet, Peachy! And now the former Chief of Staff for Gavy Nuisance has been indicted for theft of campaign funds.
A 40 year-old woman in my family just got her American citizenship today after years of effort and many thousands of dollars spent. It's still a wonderful, highly valued thing many of us take for granted or worse. It's great to see how excited and happy that makes someone. Now we can watch John Wayne movies together.
I clicked on that Newsom link. In my opinion Kamala Harris and Newsom have exactly the same style of speaking. Lots of words empty of meaning. Newsom has those additional hand gestures - which I find really creepy.
Someone needs to explain to Gavy that waving his jazz hands around is not what they mean when they say “works with his hands”…
The left are behind the Groyoper/Fuentes movement...

Please, Inga: no one on earth believes that you didn't vote for Hillary
She voted for that loon, Jill Stein. Because Hillary wasn't leftist enough.
A vote for Jill Stein by a voter who otherwise would have voted for Hillary was a vote for Donald Trump. Thanks for voting for Trump, Inga. Tell your relatives in Israel. You’ll make them really happy.
It gets even better, Eva Marie.

“ Trump raises tariffs which drive prices up”
Simple people can’t understand complexity. Tariffs can force producers to lower profit margins to maintain business volume to compete with indigenous companies. I’ll dispense with the equations. This is how the US funded itself in the 18th century in cleaning up British mercantilism. Now we are working on Chinese mercantilism. We are also reducing the profit margins of US politicians who are paid by China to eliminate tariffs.
The thing is that there are perfectly good reasons to impose tariffs, and just because they increase prices at times, do we really want to get our TV cheaper at the cost of shutting down US factories, and leaving people who once enjoyed a decent standard of living doing gig work now?
Truman is supposed to have said that what he needed was a "one-handed economist" you know, one who never says "on the other hand." Well we have a lot of one-handed economic theorists here, and the money they count is denominated by one-sided coins.
That being said, Trump has imposed a lot of tariffs that don't seem at all aimed at shoring up US manufacturing, so Kak does understand the theory behind the tariffs, even if he refuses to acknowledge that.
The other place where our trolls count with one-sided coins is immigration, where there is a complete denial that they suppress wages in the working class, and that chasing lower prices through lower wages and sending jobs overseas is nothing but a race to the bottom. Then they can't understand why working people have abandoned the Democrats.
Newsom’s Former Chief of Staff Indicted on Public Corruption Charges
"A 23-count indictment alleges that Dana Williamson conspired to defraud the U.S. government between 2022 and 2024."
The Chinese are just sitting there with a massive labor pool, lax labor and environmental laws, and an order pad. It's our own fault if we are seduced by their cheap consumer goods.
Now we are upset that we no longer have the industrial base to fight modern war, which requires massive manufacturing of missiles and drones. Maybe China can't produce a premium quality anti-ship missile, for example, but as Stalin said, "sometimes quantity has a quality of its own."
I see our stupid as dirt Chicago treasurer has said that Chicago will sell all the t bills in its $10B account to protest Trump. That will generate some commissions that will result in some campaign donation kickbacks, and next year we will sadly read about how the money was unfortunately lost in investments in mysterious companies.

What I find amusing is the idea that Nancy Mace and Lauren Boebert will do whatever Trump tells them to.
“My great fear, of course, is that with the release of that information, which I think will be devastating for Trump, he’s going to do everything in his power to distract. What does that mean? I mean, he might take us to war with Venezuela just to get a distraction in the news and take it out of the headlines”.

I would venture to wager there aren't many, if any, trump Catholics hearing this up in here. Pick and Choose what they like about their religion and what they don't . U.S. Catholic Bishops Issue Rare Public Rebuke—Criticize Trump Administration’s Immigration Crackdown
U.S. Catholic bishops issued a statement Wednesday raising concerns about the Trump administration's ongoing crackdown and mass deportation of undocumented migrants, delivering a rare public rebuke of the President’s immigration policies.
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) issued the rare “Special Message” during its annual gathering, which was held in Baltimore this year, saying they are disturbed about the “climate of fear and anxiety around questions of profiling and immigration enforcement.”
The statement received a near-unanimous approval from the conference, with 216 votes in favor, five against and three abstentions.
The bishops’ statement said they were “saddened by the state of contemporary debate and the vilification of immigrants.
The statement also raised concerns about the condition of migrant detention centers, “the lack of access to pastoral care,” and the arbitrary loss of legal status for some immigrants.
The bishops said they were “troubled by threats against the sanctity of houses of worship and the special nature of hospitals and schools.”
The statement said immigrants have made “enormous contributions to the well-being of our nation,” and the bishops feel “compelled now in this environment to raise our voices in defense of God-given human dignity.”
GOD-given human dignity? think that idea has become moot in todays environment, sorry Lord your people have backslid big time especially in todays politics. Every knee will bow in the end ,so that will be YOUR time..
Yeah Dinky, Latin Americans are simultaneously one of the strongest Catholic redoubts and one of the most precarious, since the Evangelicals are gaining more and more converts. The Bishops hope they can stanch the bleeding by coming out against deportation. But they are screwed whatever they do: some segment of their believers will dislike whatever position they take. CC, JSM

JSM as a recovering Catholic since 1965 ,now a born again Christian, an altar boy, and beat by Sisters of Charity, Franciscan nuns and Marist Brothers( the most sick) until I left the sect and went into military I saw so much abuse it was incredible. Very little Biblical back round over run by Catechism and rules made up and not biblical, I watched that sect for years ,LEO and Francis EVEN THOUGH I have seen Catholics up in here call those fellas commies ,to me seem to be more directed to the writings of scriptures although the lives don't always follow suit Religion.= James 1:27 I like " pure and faultless religion is caring for orphans and widows in their distress and keeping oneself unstained by the world. Tough ride! Like I said pik and choose what you like about your religion and what you dont just dismiss, Religion is the finger of the moon pointing at spirituality. For the MAGAS(maybe not all) it seems pointing toward the Bishops statements don't compute with their stances on the issue and of course that's what the commies would do right? :( Father forgive them for they know not what they do. there is only ONE true judge ,all else in this realm here is sinking sand.

Didn't see anything special, though.

I took main street west until I was well in the cornfields and saw them. A lot of people were parked alongside the road. They were washed out but you could plainly see them.
I'm glad you got a good look, Rusty. I'm deep inside Memphis with trees and a lot of light pollution--I'm sure the bluffs would be ideal but neither of us likes to drive at night.
Narr. There is some advantage living in dinner plate flat Northern Illinois. Not even the interesting part where the last glacier ended, but the part where if you take Rt.30 there's nothing but corn and soy beans until you get to the Mississippi.
