Federal Elections.

Lisa Murkowski is a democrat - and cheating helps her remain in power.

TRUTH:
"Pew Research Center poll: 83% of U.S. adults say they support "requiring all voters to show government-issued photo identification to vote."

That includes 71% of Democrats."

Iman ayon kay ...

Energy is where affordability starts. The price of it affects the cost of production and price of every consumable. Nearly everything Calunicornia Democrats have done, every policy they’ve put in place has negatively affected the cost of living of its citizens. They gotta go!

I think of the price drop in our everyday goods if our regular gas was, let’s say, $2.68/gal, as a friend in Helena, Montana reports.

“Conservative pollster Rasmussen Reports has found that most voters don’t feel they’re living in the “golden age” that President Donald Trump promised them.

A new poll released Tuesday by the pollster also showed 48 percent of voters believed former President Joe Biden was the better president compared to 40 percent for Trump.”

Knee replacement update: nerve block seems to be wearing off faster this time than last time - Day 2 has been considerably harder this time around. But with any luck, that means the worst of it will be over sooner too!

I am grateful to all here who sent good wishes, and to my surgical team, who treated me with efficient compassion and did a great job.

I wish Mrs. Guthrie all possible luck. What doesn't bode well is that it's taking them so long to resolve this. Kidnappings don't happen in this country because it's not a crime with a winning percentage. Just the fact that they got away with it for this long with such a high profile victim will put ideas in some people's heads.......I hope for the Dems that the kidnappers don't turn out to be some Tren de Agua type gang. In some Latin countries, kidnappings are very common..

Unfortunately, it is both necessary and long overdue for President Trump to exercise direct command authority over the CIA, because nothing there has fundamentally changed. Recall that back in July Director Ratcliffe issued a stunning statement acknowledging that his predecessors had perpetrated the Russiagate fraud. That was great, but it was immediately undercut by a CIA report that blamed vague “tradecraft errors” instead of admitting the outright fraud it actually was.

The fact that Ratcliffe could not overrule his own subordinates and their bogus analysis speaks volumes about how broken the CIA remains, even under the leadership of an honest and decent man. It was not until Tulsi Gabbard released the HPSCI report weeks later that the full extent of the CIA’s whitewash became clear. Given that history, one can only imagine how bad the situation is with whatever they are now trying to bury about the election.

Kakistocracy ayon kay ...

By spending time on Jeffrey Epstein's island, Howard Lutnick interacted with an immensely rich man and his harem of young girls. This perfectly prepared him to do deals with the royals of Saudi Arabia and the UAE. A masterstroke by President Donald J. Trump!

Kakistocracy ayon kay ...

"Pam Bondi brings the heat"

Yes, child sex trafficking is horrific and deserves serious attention. But during her hearing, Pam Bondi pivoted to boasting about how well the Dow is performing under Trump—almost as if to deflect from the tough questions on Epstein files and justice for victims.

Only the most hardcore MAGA loyalists and paid influencers seemed to think her combative, evasive performance was acceptable. Even many Trump supporters expressed disgust at how she handled it, refusing to apologize to survivors while attacking Democrats and praising the stock market instead.

Enigma ayon kay ...

@Iman claims the number of federal employees is at its lowest level in 50 years.

Nope. The total is at its lowest for 5 years -- Biden juiced the workforce but it's been at a stable flat peak for close to 20 years.

Kakistocracy ayon kay ...

One thing that really stands out from this hearing is how completely out of her depth Bondi appears. She's an absolute lightweight—barely sentient at times.

Enigma ayon kay ...

Pam Bondi came across as either a hostage with a gun at her head or a nutcase. Her weird diversions, antagonism, and hostility made. no. sense. at. all.

Bongino rapidly left government with strange comments too.

These case files destroy brains. Watch the thriller Kiss Me Deadly (1955). Open Pandora's box and die. 4Chan may be the most credible news source these days.

That's great of course, but the real savings is getting the nonemployees off the payroll. The most effective thing the government could do for the next decade is fight fraud 24/7 with jail time and deportations, because they will never vote to cut spending.

“The House of Representatives voted to overturn President Trump's Canadian tariffs – the first in what could be a series of rebukes

President Trump immediately threatened the GOP lawmakers who bucked him, which included Reps. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Don Bacon of Nebraska, Dan Newhouse of Washington, Jeff Hurd of Colorado, and Kevin Kiley of California. One Democrat voted to preserve the tariffs: Rep. Jared Golden of Maine.”

What was funny was that Mike Johnson had just said to reporters that Trump wasn’t upset, right after that Trump let loose on Truth Social.

Based on recent reports from a congressional hearing on February 11, 2026, Attorney General Pam Bondi was described by observers as displaying a "smirk," "eye rolls," and a generally unbothered demeanor while facing questioning.
Key details regarding her appearance include:
Controversial Demeanor: Observers and social media users noted her, at times, laughing, yawning, or smirking during intense exchanges, specifically when confronted about Epstein-related documents or questioned by Democratic lawmakers.
Viral Moments: Clips of her performance went viral, with some describing her as acting "smug" and "untouched by truth" during the hearing.
The Hearing: Bondi engaged in heated exchanges with the House Judiciary Committee,, where she defended the Trump administration and clashed with representatives, according to social media reports

Inga ayon kay ...

“Today (February 11, 2026), U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi testified before the House Judiciary Committee in an oversight hearing focused heavily on the Justice Department’s handling of Jeffrey Epstein-related files—including redactions (protecting some alleged perpetrators/clients while exposing victim details), lack of prosecutions of named individuals (e.g., references to Prince Andrew or others), and any Trump administration ties or cover-up claims.     Epstein survivors were present in the room, and the session (lasting ~5.5 hours) featured sharp questioning from Democrats, some Republican input (e.g., Rep. Thomas Massie), and accusations of non-responsiveness. 
Social media reactions on X (the primary real-time source here) are overwhelmingly critical of Bondi’s behavior and demeanor. Common themes include:
• Evasive/filibustering/non-responsive: She repeatedly avoided direct answers, deflected with whataboutisms, talked over time limits, pivoted to unrelated topics (e.g., stock market gains or Democratic hypocrisy), and refused to answer numerous questions (Democrats highlighted ~15).    
• Combative, insulting, and unprofessional: Notable examples include calling Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD, former law professor) a “washed-up loser lawyer,” raising her voice, making personal attacks/digs at lawmakers, taunting, and engaging in shouting matches. Many described her as “unhinged,” “raging lunatic,” “losing control,” “yelling/ranting,” “juvenile/snide,” “buffoonish,” “easily triggered,” “overwhelmed/stressed,” or “acting like a clown” with “zero composure.”       
• Handling of victims: She expressed general sorrow for survivors’ abuse in her opening but reportedly refused to turn around and directly apologize for redaction issues when pressed; survivors were asked to signal (e.g., raise hands) if DOJ had failed them, with reports that all did. This drew outrage over perceived minimization or “dehumanizing” tone.   
• Other characterizations: Some questioned her stability (jokingly or not: “drunk?”, “unstable/inarticulate,” “pitiful,” “chaotic shit show”); a few tied it to broader distrust in DOJ handling of Epstein/powerful figures.   
A smaller set of posts (often from conservative or pro-administration users) defended her as standing her ground against “toxic”/partisan questioning, calling out hypocrisy, or performing a “master class” in handling a hostile environment.   However, even some neutral/mixed voices called her performance “less than stellar” or weak in debate.  
Reactions appear polarized along partisan lines, with the sampled critical voices (many anti-Trump/Dem-aligned accounts) dominating visibility in searches. Broader media coverage echoes the “tense,” “heated,” “combative,” and “nuclear” tone, with survivors expressing anger.   Clips of outbursts and exchanges are circulating widely, amplifying the “unprofessional” narrative. Overall, the predominant social media takeaway on her behavior is negative—portraying it as defensive, evasive, and unbecoming of the AG role in a serious oversight setting.”

Now hear this. I just finished the internet and on the very last page it says "NYC Mayor Mamdani is son to the now most discussed name in America, the prince of darkness, Jeffrey Epstein; death not-withstanding.
Under normal circumstances this would be "remarkable" news. But the word remarkable is now lost in a "residual data" drive, instead of the safe confines of the cloud, in the hands of predators.

Attempts to bloviate it back to life are doomed to fail. You see when Salomon said that there was nothing new under the sun, he was really preciously prescient. And that's not just a door ring camera on Saturn.

Remember, Kak and Inga and Ronald fully and enthusiastically support Democrats in government literally murdering US citizens with zero accountability. Anything happen to the people at Waco, or Ruby Ridge? The FBI agents who shot Levoy Finicum in the back? (He deserved it for protesting! shouts the left). the FBI Using an entire battalion to invade the home and kill a man who couldn't even walk in Craig Robertson. We don't even have the body cam videos released. Democrats gave medals to the guy who killed Ashley Babbit.

But if you "parade" through the People's House, staying inside the velvet ropes and passing through the doors the nice officers hold open for you, it's two years hard time with no trial and the only way out is by presidential pardon, because as all Democrats will tell you, protesting against them is a crime if possible.

Note that Inga, Kak, and the rest have not said a word about the Democrat candidates running right now on a platform of "Arrest Trump and have him executed! But never, ever use the death penalty for anyone other than Republicans! Especially make sure to free every illegal and make them immune from the law!"

Vance ayon kay ...

Also: I went back and reread the comments on the Canadian school shooting today. Not a single comment from any of our leftists. Nary a call for gun control, even.

Now why is that, do you think? (hypothetical; we all know why: they either support the trans shooter or are hoping the story goes away to not force them to acknowledge the evils of leftist ideology).

But given a chance to vote to repeal it, she voted against getting rid of it. And she lost re-election. But bring inert blobs who fail to support the policies that got them elected in 2024 won’t cost them their seats in Congress in 2026. Nope. Of course not.

Yesterday I pondered why the Guthrie kidnapping story was compelling television. The following is also appended to yesterday’s Pima County post:


It’s like a serialized story with an unsteady drip of information daily. It would have been better for the victims to have competent LE response from the start but the way it is unfolding now is compelling TV unlike 99% of what’s offered.

SoCal is where I grew up and live police pursuits became the best thing to watch. Few things on TV could compete with the drama and surprise element of a felony car chase. Local news copters employed map software and estimated MPH to make chases easier to track. People flock to overpasses or line streets cheering them on. The unpredictable nature made them exciting.

This crime investigation is like that but in a slower bit-by-bit daily serial kind of way.

Why is it worth it for the US over internal matters in a country on the other side of the world?

We have our reasons, but they have nothing to do with what they say are our reasons. They have to do with oil, and control of the Straits of Hormuz, and our efforts to create chaos around Russia, which is directly connected to Iran by the Caspian Sea, where no Western navy can operate. Nobody who is not on that sea can get to it without traveling through a canal through Russia. We can't stand that Iran controls the Straits just because it is on their territory when we have a bigger military.

Heh, both Kak and Inga are now trying to avoid answering me by claiming I'm Drago. I've been posting here as Vance for years. Probably before Drago started posting, even.

As for "Why do you demand we leftists denounce everything!!" That Mark raises: It's how you guys on the left treat everyone else. How many times were we told that if we didn't specifically condemn, say, the Westboro Baptist people we must agree with them? If we didn't ritually denounce the Proud Boys or "Boogaloo" we must be part of it. Well, what's good for the goose is good for the gander, leftists. And I note that you leftists can manage to scream about "how dare you ask if I support this leftist violence!" but you never actually condemn the leftist action. It's just as easy to say "now that you ask, of course I disagree with leftists murdering Christians in churches!" But you never do say that, do you. It's never your first or second or tenth response. Finally, after chasing you guys down you might mutter a very quick statement about it... if you don't go radio silent.

Pointing out something horrible a leftist did gives your side a chance to prove that no, you aren't in fact insane and violent. You should be eager to show you aren't "like them." But you never, ever take that chance.

Mark ayon kay ...

I asked people to denounce Westboro Church here?

I will take 'things I never said' for $1000.

You invent things that never happened then claim you are just trying to make things even. Gimme a break

Vance ayon kay ...

Mark employing that well known leftist tactic of "I personally did not do X" which may be true, followed by the next part "And therefore no Democrat did X" which is usually implied. Again, The left NEVER "gives the benefit of the doubt" to anyone else. All Trump voters are racist nazis, because they have to be because they voted for Trump!!!!!! We are all "deplorable" as Hillary said.

It's official leftist policy. "Because this person misused a gun, we have to seize all guns from white people! They are to blame for this one gun shooting!" All white people are racist. We have "Christian Nationalists."

Mark, Group blame is the core of leftist belief. You cannot complain if someone returns it to you. You are a leftist, therefore by your own rules you are guilty of all things that leftists do. It's the standard your side applies to everyone else, so you get to live by those rules.

Inga ayon kay ...

Vance always reminded me of Drago, I used to ask if Vance and Drago were ever seen in the same room together. Making claims about what a commenter has said despite the commenter never having said it was a hallmark method of Drago and Vance for years. Drago’s sad story of his illness always seemed suspicious. I can only guess that he had to killl off the Drago persona for some reason. It’s uncanny that two commenters use the same exact method of commenting.

Inga ayon kay ...

Drago/Vance comment @10:40 is an example of why I used to tease Drago about being trained in propaganda in Moscow. The more Vrago posts, the more he shows that he misses his Drago persona.

Jaq ayon kay ...

If you can't do that... well, it's a good thing to remember that propaganda can also consist of things that are true that you don't want your people thinking about, such as that there has been a civil war on Russia's border since 2014, and the Biden Administration demanded that Zelensky go against the promise that got him elected, to make peace with Russia, and instead escalate the war on ethnic Russians in the Donbas.

There is nothing false there, Inga just doesn't want people to think about it because she considers herself a "thought leader."

I think Inga needs medical help, since she's clearly going senile. I've been posting here for probably a decade. I think I was posting before Drago. I remember Laslo when he had the time to post here. I have embarrassed Inga lots of times with her insistence that she will never, ever condemn Democrats on anything they do. And now she's found a new tactic: "If I claim Drago and Vance are the same poster, I never, ever have to respond with anything of substance! Hooray! I get to avoid facing accountability for the evil I love and support!"

You’ve embarrassed only yourself with your accusations and rantings.

Between the two of us, Althouse has only banned one of the two of us. Repeatedly. And that person was not me. Nor did I believe Jessie Smollett.

Democrats are outraged by Pam Bondi's performance as AG. Maybe they shouldn't have been so quick to reject Matt Gaetz just because he has sex with teenagers.

Nor did I believe Jesse Smollett and never said so, that is another of your lies, Vrago.

Hey Kak, I recall all the Democrats loving their Senator from New Jersey who used to fly overseas and have sex with underage girls. They only turned on him when he got caught with actual gold bars from bribes. That was the thing he did wrong... not have orgies with 14 year olds. Democrats such as yourself were absolutely fine with that.

Inga ayon kay ...

“Did Inga the commenter at the Althouse blog ever post a comment saying she believed Jesse Smollett?”

“No, there is no record or evidence of Inga (the longtime Althouse blog commenter, posting a comment that explicitly says she “believed Jesse Smollett” (or Jussie Smollett, the correct spelling) or used phrases like “I believe him,” “I believed the story,” etc.”

From the court’s opinion today blocking Hegseth’s attempt to discipline Mark Kelly:

“As Bob Dylan once famously said, ‘You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.’ Our retired vets deserve more respect from our government, and our Constitution demands they receive it!” ~ District Judge Richard J. Leon.

I don’t understand how a district court can intervene in a military administrative action before it even starts. I mean there is a whole ladder of boards and courts specifically for reviewing military actions. I don’t think any district court makes up one of the rungs. CC, JSM

Good news Kak! It’s amazing how people on the right can switch from their supposed respect for police and veterans, when police and or veterans go against their narrative or ideology. I remember all the Trump supporters beating up the police during their riot on Jan.6th, those images are forever on the internet. As for veterans, are Trumpists now internalizing Trump’s disdain for veterans? Thinking of his comments about McCain and the comments to General John Kelly about those dead being “suckers and losers”. “Disdain for disabled veterans: General Kelly confirmed that Trump expressed disdain for wounded veterans, telling staff he did not want to be photographed with military amputees because "it doesn't look good for me".”

Inga once again believes that all Republicans always, without question, loved the police. She fails to use her brain one iota, as conservatives are very well aware of the leftist's fondness for police states all around the world.

Democrats hate cops that arrest criminals and protect the people. Democrats LOVE cops that shoot civilians at the commands of "elite leftists" in government. Just look at Inga's favorite candidate right now in Ohio, a Democrat running to be state attorney general on the platform of "Never execute a child murderer but I will use the death penalty on Donald Trump!"

Conservatives, on the other hand, love cops who protect and serve, who help out the citizens. Not round them up and put them into camps like Democrats want. "But but illegals! REEEE" shrieks Inga. Arresting criminals who are here illegally is part of the whole "protect and serve" bit.

We all know the only cops Inga has praised are the ones who shot Ashley Babbitt and arrested all the J-6 people. She also praises the ones who killed conservatives at the command of Joe Biden and Barack Obama. Ones who arrest illegal alien gang rapists of little children? Inga and her party call those cops "fascist!"

As for Mark Kelly, he was claiming that keeping order in US Cities was illegal and fascist, and that Democrats should be allowed to burn, loot, murder, and destroy at will and that any force used to stop Democrats from doing that was illegal and anyone who followed orders to arrest Democrats who were raping, burning, looting, and murdering--those people would eventually be treated like Nazi concentration camp people. Like Inga wants. "You arrested Eduardo the rapist and deported him! It's the chair for you! Our illegal alien criminals are doing the jobs we can't get Americans to do of raping little girls!" That's the Democrat party policy right now. Just ask their candidates and Congress critters.

Simple question, Inga: would you rather have the Trump policy of deporting illegals and violent criminals, or the Starmer policy of arresting citizens who defend themselves, especially arresting little girls who are defending their sisters from illegal alien rapists? That's the kind of immigration policy the left is using around the world, you almost certainly want that here, don't you.
