Is there anything Ivermectin can't do? (lifted from Instapundit) thefocalpoints.com/p/ivermec… Notice that someone took a dog to Mexico and it brought the damn thing back, nice going folks. Leave your pets at home vs taking them to Central America at least for the time being.

Just got an add for Password hosted by Jimmy Fallon, hard pass and another show ruined by the left if the ad is any indication.

These Spencer Pratt videos by @dsonoiki are better than 99.9% of political consultant ads. He does it again.

One of the most dangerous things about @spencerpratt is that if he wins he will clean up Los Angeles and show that it can be done in New York, Chicago, Seattle, etc. None of our cities have to be like this. As goes California, so goes the nation.

Damn you mean my brothers and I should have opened a home health care llc to take care of my parents and gotten paid good money to do so, instead of being good kids that did family duty of taking care of aging parents. x.com/lukerosiak/article/205…

Fucking Brilliant

I'm starting to believe this is actually the case.

> Colt > Started in Czech Republic Ah yes the company founded by Samuel Colt, whose early revolver designs became so legendary in the old west and the US civil war that the Colt Walker is still the official handgun of Texas, was started in the Czech Republic

🧵🚨 THREAD: How the Charlottesville rally and SPLC birthed an entire billion-dollar-plus "democracy" ecosystem 🚨 11 federal counts. Wire fraud. Money laundering conspiracy. But here's what the SPLC headlines are missing: • The indictment describes a paid informant in the leadership chat that PLANNED Unite the Right • That informant "helped coordinate transportation" to the rally... at SPLC's direction • There is ONE publicly identified organizer whose documented role was transportation coordinator • His Discord posts about running over protesters were made 26 DAYS before Heather Heyer was killed by a car • The indictment says postings were made "under the supervision of the SPLC" • Charlottesville then became the founding event for a billion-dollar political machine • SPLC installed itself as that machine's definitional gatekeeper I report. You draw your own conclusions. As always, patience as I pull together the thread. 👇

This is a good read on what the issue really is in the middle east and why it will never be likely settled by concessions to Pally demands. behindthenarrative7.substack…

How in the world do they decide to glorify a kook who stole a plane and ended up crashing it into the ocean because he just knew enough to get it airborne but not land it again? Is this like watching a train wreck or something, glorifying his stupidity?

You know @fidelity we really need an agile platform that doesn't crash as soon as the market gets busy. Active Trader Pro is so far behind the competition it is unreal.

Here’s what drives people nuts on both sides: Trump is not the cartoon character. Not the genius his fans worship, not the idiot his critics need him to be. He's just a stubborn, calculating guy who creates chaos the way a magician creates misdirection. While you’re distracted watching the fireworks, he’s already three iterations ahead with furious execution. And he doesn’t bluff the way people think he bluffs. He just couldn't care less about the part of diplomacy where everyone pretends to be polite while lying to each other’s faces. He skips that step entirely, which looks unhinged if you’re used to the old choreography but is genuinely disorienting if you’re the guy on the other side of the table who had a whole manipulation strategy mapped out. Iran found this out the hard way. What gets lost in so much noise is that Trump doesn’t actually want war. He sees it as the ugly price tag on a bigger purchase. His math on Iran is cold but not complicated: ninety million people living between poverty and the lower middle class, ruled by an elite whose entire business model depends on keeping them there. The nukes were the urgent priority, but his bet is that removing the lid will let Iranians rebuild the way Germany did after the rubble cleared. You can argue whether that math checks out, but it’s not the reasoning of someone who just wants to watch things explode. Obviously, Iran isn’t the only file on his desk. Venezuela already got the treatment. Cuba’s probably next. Syria hasn’t been forgotten either, no matter how quiet things look. By this point, few should be surprised that he circles back to unfinished business with the patience of a guy who knows he’s holding better cards and just needs to wait for overconfidant tyrants to overplay theirs. The part his opponents keep getting wrong is treating “Make America Great Again” like a bumper sticker. Wrong. It’s a *doctrine* now. It has always been. Whether you love it or find it terrifying, MAGA is the very operating system behind his relentless drive. This not just some random pixellated banner which will fade away in the next couple presidential terms. Nah, this is the right stuff that will outlast the man who built it.

Be a real shame if the Federal Courts put a bounty on this asshole. powerlineblog.com/archives/2…

Anybody have any feedback on wildforkfoods.com/

"50% of the world's cropland is used to feed livestock." Right. Let's have a look at that. Because this figure gets deployed like a weapon in every vegan argument about animal agriculture, usually immediately after someone points out that monocrops destroy topsoil, obliterate biodiversity, and require industrial pesticide regimes that would make a chemical weapons inspector uncomfortable. So. The claim. Yes, roughly half of global cropland by area is involved in producing livestock feed. That number is technically defensible. It is also an extraordinary piece of misdirection. Here's what it doesn't tell you. The single largest component of that "livestock feed" figure is soybean. Global soy production is approximately 370 million tonnes per year. About 80% of that gets processed into soybean oil: for human consumption, biodiesel, and industrial use. The remaining meal, after the oil is extracted, goes to animal feed. The animals are eating the industrial byproduct. The waste. The thing left over after humans have already taken what they wanted. You are not growing soy FOR the cow. You are growing soy for oil and food processing, and the cow is eating the bit you couldn't sell. Next: alfalfa. One of the most common livestock feed crops globally. It is also grown predominantly on alkaline soils, saline soils, semi-arid land, and high-altitude terrain that would fail to support human food crops. It fixes nitrogen. It stabilises degraded land. It is not competing with wheat. It is growing on land that wheat has already looked at and decided against. Then you have distillers' grains: the spent grain from ethanol and alcohol production. Corn silage: the stalks and husks after human food is removed. Cottonseed meal: the byproduct of the cotton industry. Citrus pulp. Sugar beet pulp. Oilseed residues. Livestock are, in enormous measure, running on the off-cuts of industries that exist for other purposes entirely. The "50% of cropland" figure doesn't tell you that a significant portion of that land couldn't grow human food. It doesn't tell you that much of the feed is a byproduct that would otherwise be landfilled. It doesn't tell you that the animals are often doing the most efficient possible thing with material that has nowhere else to go. It tells you a large number, in a confident voice, with no context. Which is, in fairness, the full methodology of most vegan nutrition claims.

Ok vets we all know Uncle Sam fucks our bodies and minds up. But this level of egregious welfare baby bullshit has gotta stop. This is a rare occurrence as most of us getting out are genuinely fucked up and just tell the truth to the doctors and accept what we get. When we see guys that were shot getting less “benefits” than dudes like this who literally never did anything something is wrong. This is a rare occurance but should be called out when it happens. Hold each other accountable.
