Good Morning Doc Sarvis:

Right now I'm reading Gods, Heroes, and Men of Ancient Greece by W.H.D. Rouse (1957).

Then I'm going to either read from my Jules Verne anthology that includes Master of the World or Elmer Gantry by Sinclair Lewis.

Dummkopf Trumpf on Truth Social:

"Pope Leo is WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy. He talks about "fear" of the Trump Administration, but doesn't mention the FEAR that the Catholic Church, and all other Christian Organizations, had during COVID when they were arresting priests, ministers, and everybody else, for holding Church Services, even when going outside, and being ten and even twenty feet apart. I like his brother Louis much better than I like him, because Louis is all MAGA. He gets it, and Leo doesn't! I don't want a Pope who thinks it's OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon...."

Both books sound excellent, Doc Sarvis, much appreciated.

Years ago I had heard about an African prince or navigator from the Dark Continent heading West across the vast salty expanse and "discovering" the New World (Brazil), but this is anecdotal. One AI snapshot suggests that I may be referring to Abubakari II, a 14th-century ruler of the Mali Empire.

How many of Immanuel Velikovsky books have you read?

Anyways re-reading Greek mythology has been most rewarding.

I had forgotten all about Hercules' twin brother (also strong, but not like the "Big H").

Did you perchance see my post about the US Army civilian who got jammed up because she divulged secrets to a journalist about Delta Force?

That book sounds like another good read.

Too many books, not enough time, Doc Sarvis.

If a USSS SA plugs the morbidly obese geriatric child molesting draft dodger in the back of the head, what jury would convict him or her?

**** Iranian President Sends Pope Leo Well Wishes While Slamming Dummkopf Trumpf's AI Image as 'Desecration of Jesus' and 'Not Acceptable' ****

President of Iran Masoud Pezeshkian wrote on X (Monday 13 April):

"His Holiness Pope Leo XIV ... I condemn the insult to Your Excellency on behalf of the great nation of Iran, and declare that the desecration of Jesus, the prophet of peace and brotherhood, is not acceptable to any free person. I wish you glory by Allah."

*** After Deleting Blasphemy, Dotard-in-Chief Posts Trumpf Tower on the Moon ***

Concur all above.

And behind JD Vance is the Satanic mega-oligarch Peter Thiel.

Note that this "terroristic" regime isn't targeting civilians like the US and Israel.

In fact, the Iranians gave our USAF a break when they directed their drone into the antenna of the AWAC plane in the rear, and not the cockpit in the front, when the plane was on the runway.

The Russians provided the intel to the Iranians and Tehran acted on it.

Loss of this $300m aircraft is a "grave matter" according to a USAF spokesperson because of the limited number of these specialized planes.

The USAF crew survived the attack, albeit injured and shaken up.

*** Dummkopf Trumpf Ally Turns on Him (a bit) ***

"Dummkopf Trumpf's remarks about Pope Leo XIV were "unacceptable", right-wing Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has said.

The draft-dodging morbidly-obese pedophilic dotard idiotically accused the pontiff of being "WEAK on Crime and terrible for Foreign Policy" in a long Truth Social post, later telling reporters he was "not a big fan."

"The Pope is the head of the Catholic Church, and it is right and normal for him to call for peace and to condemn every form of war," Meloni said in a statement.

~snip~

After the disastrous 2024 election, PM Giorgia Meloni disrespected POTUS Joe Biden by visiting Dummkopf Trumpf in Mar-al-Lago before the official inauguration. What was so important for the Italian PM to visit the President-elect in Florida with a sitting POTUS in the White House?

*** Dummkopf Trumpf Turns On Italian PM Giorgia Meloni, His Last Ally in Europe ***

The IAEA, USIC, UK, and UN have all confirmed North Korea has both nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles.

Their nuclear weapons tests have been confirmed.

No one is disarming Pyongyang.

The IAEA, USIC, UK, and UN have NEVER recorded one single nuclear weapons test emanating from Iran, a signatory of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

Attacking Iran and trying to create an impossible regime change in Iran has been a dream of AIPAC and Benjamin Netanyahu for decades, especially if America funds it and US servicemembers are sacrificed for it.

One would have more respect for these Islamophobes and AIPAC shills if they would just admit that.

Hi AU

That was indeed brilliant of Stephen Colbert's staff to quickly combine music, lyrics, video, and comedy.

Thanks for posting that.

Border Czar Tom Homan braying at reporters outside White House:

"Look, I'm not going to speak for the president. I'm speaking for myself, a lifelong Catholic. I wish they'd stay out of immigration. They don't know what they're talking about.

"Because if they wore my shoes for 40 years and talked to a nine-year-old girl that got raped multiple times, or stood in the back of a tractor trailer with 19 dead aliens at my feet, including a five-year-old boy that baked to death.

"If they understood the atrocities that happened on the open border, I think their opinion would change. And I welcome any discussion with any of them because they don't understand illegal migration is not a victimless crime.

"Where President Trumpf has the most secure border in the lifetime of this nation, right now, lives are being saved. He's saving thousands of lives a year because he has a secure border. Human traffickers are out of business, right?

"The cartels are going bankrupt because of that secure border. I wish they'd understand that because if they did, I think they'd have a different opinion."
