The Kid knows what's coming...

Holy crap. There actually is a 'pro-ICE' movement out there? Who knew?

 
Billboards expressing support for Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and calling out “liberal hypocrisy” sprung up in several swing states Wednesday as federal law enforcement officers continue to face protests and harassment from anti-ICE activists. 
“ICE officers are: fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, cousins, friends,” reads one of the billboards put up by conservative nonprofit Citizens for Sanity in high-traffic commuter routes in Georgia, North Carolina and Michigan. “Let them do their jobs,” reads another placard, which includes illustrations of ICE agents in tactical gear. 
 

Another billboard reminds the public that “interfering with federal law enforcement operations is a crime. You could go to jail,” the sign warns. One of the adverts quotes remarks from former President Barack Obama’s days as senator, where he argued, “Americans are right to demand better border security and better enforcement of the immigration laws. Hey liberals, what’s changed?” the sign asks passersby.

When logic and reason fail, make it about race. Jeez...

 
Brandon Scott, the ultra-liberal Democratic mayor of Baltimore, is facing questions about the taxpayer funds he uses for his transportation as well as social media pushback over a press conference where he suggested racism was a factor.
Scott, a 'progressive' who has served as mayor since 2020, is facing pressure over a Fox Baltimore report showing his primary vehicle, a 2025 Jeep Grand Wagoneer, is the most expensive government-issued vehicle operated by any mayor, governor, county executive or county commissioner in the state, costing taxpayers $163,495. 
Scott has responded to the report, which claims his SUV costs nearly twice as much as the next most expensive taxpayer vehicle in the state, by pointing to the cost of President Donald Trump’s “Beast” vehicle, arguing that inflation is not being factored in and suggesting politics are at play. 
Scott, after being pressed by a reporter in a back-and-forth exchange, called the question “idiotic” and part of a “right-wing” effort to discredit him. 
 

The city of Baltimore, Maryland, has struggled with crime rates above national averages. Violent crime spiked after the death of Freddie Gray on April 19, 2015, which sparked riots and an increase in murders.

Ya need an ID for everything else, don'tcha?

Is there anything more blatant than the left's refusel to push for voter ID laws? Of course they don't want them, becuase it would reduce their voter base. It's just that simple. I am curious why Republicans don't push harder on this while they have the slim majorities that they have in both houses. Just doesn't make sense...

NewsNation reported yesterday that the Defense Department is threatening to cut ties with Scouting America, the organization formerly known as the Boy Scouts. Sean Parnell, assistant to the defense secretary for public affairs, made a lengthy social media post where he threatened to withdraw military support for the organization over their policies.
“As a result, over the past several months, the Department of War has been reviewing its relationship with Scouting America— formerly known as the Boy Scouts of America. A great organization, that has — in many ways — lost its way,” Parnell wrote.
Scouting America underwent a rebrand in 2025, allowing girls and LGBTQ+ people to join the organization and promoting inclusivity. (While girls are now allowed and the moniker was changed to Scouting America, the Girl Scouts of the USA remain a separate, independent organization, and boys are not allowed to join.)
Parnell referenced President Donald Trump’s “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity” executive order, which targeted DEI and inclusivity efforts among federal contractors.
Decisions by Scouting America to embrace “DEI and other social justice, gender-fluid ideological stances” are “unacceptable,” Parnell wrote.

Are you good at moaning and groaning?

Some Actors are hired just for breathing. This would generally be for a Looping or ADR Session where the voice actor is re-creating efforts for the on camera actor. This is to get the audio clean and be able to mix it just perfectly. Most times the fight audio from the actual show is never used and is replaced with voice actors! 
Foley artists (or actors) are specialized sound professionals who create, record, and synchronize everyday sound effects - such as footsteps, rustling clothing, and object handling - in a studio during post-production to enhance film and television immersion. Working in pairs, they meticulously mimic on-screen actions to add texture, emotion, and realism to the audio track.

Sex sells? What does it sell? Not me, anyway - it's just a distraction...

In an older study in TIME Magazine, they reported that the first nude print ad was published in 1936 for Woodbury Soap. It featured an undressed woman lazily lying at the beach, her arm positioned at just the right angle to shield her breasts from view. It followed the old advertising adage that sex sells.
But that no longer holds true, according to a new study released by the Psychological Bulletin. Brad Bushman, a communications professor at Ohio State University and a co-author of the study, says it’s not that sex and violence don’t grab our attention - of course they do. In fact, paying attention to such things are evolutionary responses that are necessary for survival.
But just because they grab our eye doesn’t mean the ad translates into sales. Advertisers think sex and violence sell, so they buy advertising time during sexual and violent programs, and in turn producers continue to create sexual and violent programs that attract advertising revenue,” the authors write. 
 

But when a person is being shown a product - say, laundry detergent or shoe polish - with a sexy backdrop, it’s not the detergent that’s capturing the attention so much as the action onscreen. Sex is distracting, Bushman says. “We have a limited capacity to pay attention to cues.”

After all that Russiagate shit, it wasn't them at all. It was Mexico all along?

A billboard truck was seen this week outside the Mexican Embassy in Washington, DC, highlighting the bombshell revelations in Breitbart Senior Contributor Peter Schweizer’s #1 New York Times bestselling book, The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon. 
The side panel of the truck displayed the message: “Mexico’s 50+ consulates are running a shadow campaign to sway U.S. elections. WHY?” Beside the text, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum was shown standing at a podium, with two ominous figures positioned behind her—one a tattooed gang member, the other a masked man holding a rifle. The scene appears modeled after the layout of the U.S. Capitol chamber, with the two figures seated where the Vice President and Speaker of the House would traditionally sit, suggesting symbolic foreign influence at the core of American political power.
 

Schweizer, the president of the Government Accountability Institute (GAI) and a five-time New York Times #1 bestselling author, details in The Invisible Coup how Mexico’s network of more than 50 consulates - nearly ten times the number operated by countries such as the United Kingdom - has allegedly been used to interfere in U.S. politics. 
Is there any doubt that his accounting of this isn't real? Breitbart certainly thinks o. Biden probably colluded with the Mexicans during his tenure. That would explain why the let so many of them in. Jeez friggin' Louise...

Why didn't she drop the snow board first? Jeez...


Sometimes I think reporters - and editors - get caught up a bit to much in hyperbole. Case in point? Why do they have to lead with the word 'horrifying' when coulda just gone to the video tape? Easy - people are idiots who, so it seems, only respond to outrageous and wild stories. Anyway, Monmouth Mountain staff rushed to help, setting up padding and a safety net below to catch her. The girl missed most of the net and crashed hard into the ground.
The video, which was first posted Facebook by a bystander, included the caption, “I wasn’t going to post this, but I know so many people who argue with me about putting the bar down. It’s mandatory in Europe, and it should be here.”
