The Kid has something I don't have. Common sense...
You have to blame this on the Dims. They don't give a fuck about you or your plans...
Travelers were being urged to arrive some 4 to 5 hours early to allow for extra time for screening, and there is no reason for this but for the fact that the people on the left side of the aisle just don't give a fuck if you're put out in any way. Like a bunch of spoiled brat little crybabies, they refuse to fund DHS because they need to pander to their fringe loonies.
Thin about that. The Department is called the Department of Homeland Security.- for a reason. It includes TSA, the Coast Guard, the FAA and a host of other vital government agencies, and they're willing to jeopardize your safety, your security, you right to travel unhindered, just to make a point. And a bad one it is. This country is heading in a very dangerous direction...

You tell 'em, Junior - they are all assholes...
Jesse Jackson Jr. said the grandstanding Democrats didn’t really know his father, after they used their eulogies to bash the president, his policies, and his vision for America during Friday’s star-studded send-off. “Yesterday, I listened for several hours to three United States presidents who do not know Jesse Jackson,” the grieving son said Saturday during a private memorial service at Rainbow Push Coalition headquarters in Chicago.
“He maintained a tense relationship with the political order, not because the presidents were white or black, but the demands of our message, the demands of speaking for the least of these - those who are disinherited, the damned, the dispossessed, the disrespected - demanded not Democratic or Republican solutions, but demanded a consistent, prophetic voice that at no point in time ever sold us out as people.

Bruce Springsteen looked unrecognisable as he posed with a fan in a photo circulating on social media. One fan joked on Twitter: 'In case you still refuse to feel old - Bruce Springsteen now looks like Woody Allen.' Another tweaked one of the lines from his 1975 hit Born To Run, posting: 'Gramps like us/Baby we were born to nap!!!!'
Last month, the “Born in the USA” singer announced the dates for his 2026 “Land of Hope and Dreams” U.S. tour pumping himself up as the savior of democracy and a leader in anti-Trumpism. But ticket prices are so high that one fan wrote on social media, “Unfortunately no one can afford to actually go.

West Virginia has the highest diabetes prevalence in the U.S., with 15% of adults diagnosed, according to the latest data from the CDC.
Vermont reports the lowest rate at 7.7%, nearly half the level of the highest states. Many Southern states report rates well above the national average of 10.3%.

As Iranian state television reports on the ascension of Mojtaba Khamenei as supreme leader, it refers to him as being wounded in the war. The anchors read reports describing him as “janbaz,” or wounded by the enemy, in the “Ramadan war,” which is how media in Iran refer to the current conflict. It does not elaborate. However, Khamenei’s father and his wife were killed in the February 28 Israeli airstrike in Tehran at the start of the war. It may all be smoke, mirrors and bullshit. Khamenei has yet to be seen since the war began. He was announced as Iran’s new supreme leader overnight.

“White skin gives me and every white American immunity from the virus,” he posted. “But we spread it wherever we go - through our words, our actions, and our systems. “We don’t have to be showing symptoms - like a white hood or a Confederate flag - to be contagious.” This is what passes for “normal” among Democrats? Ironically, Talarico defeated Crockett, a black woman, for the nomination.
Maybe he’s the one with that infection. In 2021, Talarico, a member of the state legislature, argued in favor of a bill that would allow biological boys to play in girls’ sports.
“God is nonbinary,” he declared on the state House floor. “The thing I want us all to be aware of is … modern science obviously recognizes there are many more than two biological sexes,” he went on. “In fact, there are six.”
Believing in six (or more!) genders is insane enough to most of us - but six biological sexes? The mind reels.

Ever wonder how we paid for Alaska?
Well,they didn't take credit cards,
so we had to write them a check...
The warrant was issued for $7.2 million in gold to complete the treaty brokered by Secretary of State William Seward. The transaction amounted to approximately two cents per acre for nearly 600,000 square miles of territory.
The US $7.2 million check used to pay for Alaska, 1868, (roughly $135 million in 2022).
In 1866 the Russian government offered to sell the territory of Alaska to the United States. Secretary of State William H. Seward, enthusiastic about the prospects of American Expansion, negotiated the deal for the Americans. Edouard de Stoeckl, Russian minister to the United States, negotiated for the Russians.
On March 30, 1867, the two parties agreed that the United States would pay Russia $7.2 million for the territory of Alaska. The check for $7.2 million was made payable to the Russian Minister to the United States Edouard de Stoeckl, who negotiated the deal for the Russians. Although the treaty was signed in 1867, this final payment warrant was issued on August 1, 1868. Critics originally labeled the purchase "Seward's Folly," but it is now recognized as a major territorial expansion for the United States.

Every time I see a news item like this I feel a little older. He was a thrid-tier artist who I remember being booed off stage at the Capital Theater in Passaic back in the day. Anyway, this popped today up in a news feed I follow.
Country Joe McDonald, the lead singer of Country Joe and the Fish, has died. The iconic singer, who co-founded the band known for its psychedelic folk rock and legendary 1969 Woodstock performance, died Saturday evening. His cause of death is unclear. Born Joseph Allen McDonald, was 84 years old.
Country Joe and the Fish was one of the most influential groups in the San Francisco music scene in the mid to late ’60s, addressing counterculture issues like protesting the Vietnam War and recreational drug use.
They’re known for songs like “I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-to-Die Rag,” (above) - one of the the era’s most recognizable anti-Vietnam War protest songs.

Welcome to San FranHooverville...
"Hoovervilles" were, during the Great Depression of the 1930s, makeshift shantytowns built by homeless people across the U.S.. Named in mockery of President Herbert Hoover due to his administration's perceived failure to address the economic crisis, these settlements consisted of shacks built from cardboard, scrap metal, and wood. While common nationwide, similar, modern-day, large-scale tent cities have been noted in San Francisco and other areas.
Residents lived in dire conditions without sanitation or electricity. These settlements were typically situated on the outskirts of cities, near water sources. Despite their circumstances, many, such as in Seattle, developed into organized communities. They were dismantled as New Deal programs began, largely disappearing by the beginning of World War II.
The term "Hooverville" is used to describe contemporary, often large, homeless encampments or, colloquially, "tent cities" that have appeared in the San Francisco Bay Area due to economic hardship.
The Guardian reported on a large, heavily criticized encampment in San Francisco. Such, often, "hidden" encampments serve as a stark reminder of the long-standing and, often, complex issue of homelessness in the city, with The San Francisco Public Press noting a 40% increase in the homeless rate in the area. The count identified 8,323 people experiencing homelessness in San Francisco, marking a 7.3% increase from 2022. While roughly half are considered unsheltered, estimates suggest up to 20,000 individuals experienced homelessness in the City at some point during the year.

Don't want us to come visit? Okay - have a nice day...
Barcelona doubles its visitor tax to become one of highest
in the world amid 'overtourism concerns'...
As popular vacation destinations continue their crackdown on overtourism, one major city has recently raised its traveler tax - making it one of the highest in Europe.
The city of Barcelona, Spain, has nearly doubled its hotel guest tax, from $5-$9 to $10-$17 per person, per night - while holiday rentals rose from 12.5 euros per night, up from $7.24 to a maximum of $14.49, Reuters reported.
The change follows overcrowding concerns from local residents due to the high number of visitors and a shortage of affordable housing for native Spaniards. Barcelona citizens held a large protest last summer, even spraying tourists with water guns.
Demonstrators marched with signs saying, "One more tourist, one less resident," and "Tourist Go Home." The demonstrators are demanding a reworking of their local economy that does not include visitors spending in their city.
So, okay, that seals it for me, anyway. Don't want people to come see your oh-so-beautiful' city? No problem. Your brothers and sisters who work as bartenders and waiters and taxi drivers will all probably need to sleep on your couch for a coupla years, ya grumpy fucks. Piecacake...

"A 'RIVER of fire' has surged through Tehran after oil depots were blasted in overnight strikes – as Donald Trump boasted the war against Iran is “already won”. Apocalyptic scenes gripped the Iranian capital after Israeli jets hammered key fuel sites late Saturday, unleashing huge explosions and towering fireballs across the skyline."
It's kinda fun to see how overly-dramatic and sensationalist they are, but I can't imagine someone living on newrags like The SUN as their only news source. Unless you're a fan of the Kardashians - 'cause opne of them makes the front page every day. Yeesh - why does anyone give a fuck about those people?

Retired New York Police Department Chief John Chell warned that the possibility of sleeper cells operating in the United States remains a serious concern following the recent attack in Austin, Texas, stressing that both law enforcement and civilians must remain vigilant.
Speaking about the broader security implications of the attack during an appearance on Newsmax TV's "Saturday Agenda," Chell said authorities cannot rule out the presence of dormant extremist networks inside the country.

It harkens back to when my little sister Barbara was born. On December 7th - Pearl Harbor Day. My father, good Navy man that he was, wanted to name her 'Pearl'. I think my Mother promised to kill him in his sleep if he was serious about naming a white baby girl in Newark, NJ in the 60's 'Pearl Jackson' I don't blame her at all.
When my youngest sister was born seven years later - 18 years after my brother Bob, my Father wanted to name her 'Oops'...
