#4 Donnerboy states reality when he says, "This administration is obviously not a reliable source for accurate information."

Indeed.

Hence ...

The Donnerboy Rule:

I need two (2) independent sources** from any Trump sycophant for any 'proof' they offer before it is even considered, much less replied to.
**Any source that contains "Trump's FBI said...", or "The DOJ announced..." or "The White House proclaimed..." - or any iteration thereof - will immediately be considered not an independent source. - Try again.

Energy supplier abandons Lake Tahoe residents to serve data centers
arstechnica.com

... The tourist and ski resort town of Lake Tahoe must scramble to find a new energy supplier by May 2027 -- the result of a Nevada utility company saying it needs the power capacity in part for new data centers.

The resulting energy crisis impacts 49,000 California residents who live near Lake Tahoe, nestled in the Sierra Nevada mountains on the border between California and Nevada.

Lake Tahoe's local electricity provider, California-based Liberty Utilities, has been obtaining 75 percent of its power from the Nevada-based company NV Energy. But the latter has said it will stop providing power to the Lake Tahoe region by May 2027, according to extensive reporting by Fortune.

Nevada's fast-growing data center development is one of the main reasons given by NV Energy for ending its energy supply agreement with Liberty, according to a Liberty filing with California regulators. Fortune highlighted data from NV Energy's own planning documents showing that a dozen data center projects in northern Nevada could drive 5,900 megawatts of new demand by 2033. ...


No it's irrelevant.

America had no right whatsoever to do what we did. Iran did not deserve it. Why does Iran do what it does? Cause Israel and America want to destroy their country. That is a stated goal of both Israel and America-"regime change", mowing the grass, etc. They actually live under an existential threat posed by 2 nuclear armed countries that have shown zero compunction to kill Iranians at will. We support theocracies and auto crats that are just as bad.

America is -------. Iran now controls the global oil market. This issue is not going to be resolved anytime soon and every day the damage gets deeper and the time to fix it will take longer, BUT the world has changed. Most people haven't grokked that yet. The world has changed. We now have a new power in the world-Iran. Iran controls 20% of the worlds oil 20% of the worlds fertilizer. That is permanent. There is no "exit ramp" to this because Iran holds all the cards. they don't even have to do anything. The threat is there and America has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they cannot do anything about it.

Ask yourself this. What will happen if the straits remain closed for another six months? Can you see a global economic collapse? A depression? I can.

Now ask yourself. Do you think Iran gives 2 ----- about that?

Now ask yourself this. What is America going to do about it?

Piggy's trip to China should wake people up.

Trump was HUMILIATED.

Who met the leader of the free world at the airport? Xi? the Foreign Minister? NOPE

Some low level dignitaries, the type of reception that Belgium or Bolivia could expect. Not the US

Compare that to Piggy sitting on the red carpet to greet Putin in Alaska

HUMILIATED

Piggy flew across the globe to be HUMILIATED

NOPE the future looks bleak.

I get the argument Tillis advances about how he's somehow been somehow effective in achieving ... well, you can read his side of it at time.com which is actually a pretty interesting take. Mine, however, differs. Given that Tillis is not running again and this is his last year in the Senate, why not apply some serious accelerant to that wee tinder fire you keep barely alive in a corner? Light it up, get things going, make a good goddamn difference. Is that too much to ask?*

*(Rhetorical question)

My personal thanks ClownShack for his excellent contributions to this thread.

Thank you.

I mean I get some media site, or news site but AARP?

The peace-loving, hardworking American taxpayer couldn't agree with the late pontiff more.

US midterm elections are scheduled for Tuesday 3 Nov 2026, barring Dummkopf Trumpf, Felon Musk, or AIPAC foreign interference.

Abdul Rahman Hassan Azzam, the secretary-general of the Arab League from 1945 to 1952, declared in 1947 that, were a war to take place with the proposed establishment of a Jewish state, it would lead to "a war of extermination and momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacre and the Crusades."[1]

"Arab countries prepare for war" (Arabic: ) in a section titled "War of extermination..." (Arabic: ... ), which included the quote, with the added words "Personally, I hope the Jews do not force us into this war, because it would be a war of extermination and momentous massacre ..."[1][2]

I personally wish that the Jews do not drive us to this war, as this will be a war of extermination and momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Tartar massacre or the Crusader wars. I believe that the number of volunteers from outside Palestine will be larger than Palestine's Arab population, for I know that volunteers will be arriving to us from [as far as] India, Afghanistan, and China to win the honor of martyrdom for the sake of Palestine ... You might be surprised to learn that hundreds of Englishmen expressed their wish to volunteer in the Arab armies to fight the Jews.
"Mustafa Amin,

Palestinians no one wants them ... they talk about exterminating the jews before the "war", failed.

Well the IDF took them at their word, and kicked them out. Israelis are correct, if they lose they die, if Israelis win Palestinians are still alive.

Perhaps today is a day the Palestinians should be thankful they exist because the Israelis are humane, unlike the Palistinains that make women wear burkas and gays have to jump from roof tops.

Never heard of Babka until today .... hope I never hear about it again.


"He was at the protest with a goal to get kids in jail if they wanted to break the law."

"He was at the protest with a goal of ruining the futures of prominent students with permanent police records."

Oof!

Kashyap Pramod Vinod Patel is neither white nor is he a Christian.

He may not have seen that as a desecration.


Last year Patel bought an illegal 3D gun to NZ when he opened up the new int'l FBI liaison office and their govt destroyed it.

It's anyone's guess what goes on in that idiotic dipsomaniac's mind.

Americans would rather have a nuclear plant in their backyard than a datacenter
www.theregister.com

... The majority of Americans are now opposed to datacenters being built in their area, many strongly opposed, pointing to tough times ahead for site developers.

A Gallup survey found more than 70 percent of respondents indicate they would be against the construction of an AI datacenter in their neighboorhood, with almost half (48 percent) saying they were strongly opposed. Only 27 percent were in favor.

The polling shows how quickly AI server farms have become politically toxic in the US, not helped by stories about their effects on energy bills, slurping up water supplies, and creating air and noise pollution in their vicinity.

To highlight this, Gallup found that more US residents are opposed to massive data halls than to having a nuclear power plant in their backyard: 53 percent of Americans oppose building a nuclear energy site nearby, compared with the 71 percent against datacenter construction. ...



The last US military bayonet charge was led by the late US Army Col. Lewis L. Millett (Ret.). He received the Medal of Honor during the Korean War for leading Company E, 27th Infantry, 25th Infantry Division, in a bayonet charge up Hill 180 near Soam-Ni, Korea on 7 Feb 1951: Medal of Honor Winner

The US Army also recently reopened its Jungle Warfare Training Center in Panama. The Defense Department is truly reverting back to the 1947 Dept of War. The trillions of dollars spent on warfare and wasteful contracts guarantees there will be no funds for universal healthcare for Americans, as enjoyed by the residents of Israel, Germany, Canada, Cuba, Iran, Taiwan, Greenland, tiny Albania, and in 2027, Mexico.

#5 The actual title of Scott Anderson's piece is...

Operation Epic Fury, Meet Operation Colossal Blunder
Nothing to do with AIPAC.

Nothing whatsoever.

Does your obvious hatred of Jews make you believe anyone would believe your obvious lie, Caius Marcius Coriolanus?

Seriously?
