The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) destroyed a convent belonging to the Salvatorian Sisters, a Greek Catholic religious order, in what was described as a "deliberate act" and part of a broader pattern of systematic damage to homes in southern Lebanon aimed at preventing displaced civilians from returning.

IDF Committing Unspeakable Ecological Carnage in Southern Lebanon


Saturday Night Live's Aziz Ansari humiliated FBI Director Kashyap Pramod Vinod Patel when he portrayed him in a press conference at the White House:

  • "You guys should not be reporting the lies and the gossip. You should be reporting on the historic nature of my appointment. I'm a trailblazer. I'm the first Indian person to suck at their job."
  • "Everyone says Indian people are smart, hardworking, incredibly intelligent. I've proved without a shadow of a doubt that we can be just as incapable and incompetent as the whites. Let me be clear: this FBI director has never been drunk or hungover on the job. And this FBI director has definitely not stood on top of a couch at the VIP room of Tao Nightclub and shouted, Who wants the nuclear codes?!'"


    Purdue Pharma officially ended operations Friday, a year after the Sackler family reached a $7.4 billion settlement with a coalition of state attorneys general for the company's inescapable role in fueling America's devastating opioid crisis.

    The Honorable US District Judge Dale Ho of the Southern District of New York blocked DHS from deporting nearly 3,000 refugees back to war-torn and famine suffering Yemen, a country the US and Israel routinely bomb. read more


    Street signs are going up in the Orange County city of Westminster, California, inexplicably honoring slain good-for-nothing hatemonger Charlie Kirk.

    Over the weekend, the murderous IDF liquidated 40 people in southern Lebanon and conducted large-scale demolitions; in Gaza an IDF drone killed an unarmed teenager named Riyad Naji Abu Nimer (15).

    The peace-loving hardworking American taxpayer is tired of funding Israel's ethnic cleansing of Muslims in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon. This wealthy nuclear-armed country offers universal healthcare for all its residents, while Americans are suffering in a vicious for-profit system which will only get worse for poor people when the Big Beautiful Bill kicks into full force later this year.


    The $12 billion the US sent Israel in military funding in 2025 to murder Palestinian children could have instead paid for free or low-cost healthcare for 3.5 million children in the US.

    The US midterm elections are scheduled for Tuesday 3 Nov 2026.

    American Christians are Subsidizing Blasphemies

    Islamophobic warmonger US Senator John Fetterman (D-Israel) is an AIPAC dead-ender who wants you to irrationally hate Muslims and Palestinians
    So, this so-called "Democrat" doesn't discuss fighting to get universal healthcare for all of us here in America, as enjoyed by the residents of Israel, Germany, Greenland, Cuba, Iran, Canada, Taiwan, tiny Albania, and in 2027 Mexico, but he slimes fellow Democrat Graham Platner and the antiwar Samaritans of Code Pink as "terrible?"

    As the Immortal Bard might inveigh against this morbidly-obese good-for-nothing Dummkopf Trumpf-loving brontosaurus who wants to maintain ICE to deport Muslims and other undesirables:

    "Get thee gone,, detestable human hippo! Thou are the reason Nature created the middle finger!"

    Hi Doc Sarvis

    The US should never have been an empire in the first place. The American people fought off an empire to become an independent republic. As a congressman from Illinois in 1846, Abraham Lincoln kept questioning the warmongers who pushed for war against Mexico. He would say: "Show me the spot on the map where Mexican forces went into US territory." The newspapers began calling him "Spotty Lincoln."

    As a militiaman mustered into service to fight the indigenous tribes, he was elected commander and his unit apparently never engaged the enemy during months of patrols-- A. Lincoln had no blood on his hands.

    During the Civil War, President Lincoln did not invade Canada and he had pretext to do so. Confederates ran an espionage and sabotage ring out of Quebec and their envoys worked out of Ontario. Raids were conducted into the northern states and a plot to burn down Manhattan emanated from Confederates in Canada. SECWAR William Seward and the cabinet were all made aware of these machinations.

    Protests from all quarters couldn't stop the Spanish-American War (1898) and within four months the US became an empire.

    Protests against entering the First World War initially worked, but failed.

    "I don't want my son dying in some far away place for some far away reason."

    The US would occupy the German Rhineland until 1923 while sending a brigade to help the White Russians and Czech Legion against the Bolsheviks.

    Pacification against the Moros and resistance forces in the Philippines continued until the Imperial Japanese Army kicked us out in 1042: "I shall return."

    The US wins the Second World War, establishes Bretton Woods, the Five Eyes Intelligence alliance, USCENTCOM, USEUCOM, USPACOM, USSOUTHCOM, and then sacrifices our boys "in a far away place for a far away reason" called Vietnam. Then Lebanon, Grenada, Panama, Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Iran.

    While our "empire" rapidly declined and our population pauperized under Republican Party malfeasant governance, the US amassed the most billionaires in history and Israel recorded the highest per capita number of billionaires on the planet.

    Endnote: 'Twas a northern oligarch named Horace Greeley who funded CSA Jefferson Davis' post-Civil War bond granting him freedom. Jefferson Davis would outlive A. Lincoln by 20 years or so.

    Read A. Lincoln's prophetic words below:


    Nancy Mace is now a Loose Cannon for Dummkopf Trumpf
    "Nancy Mace has been a thorn in Dummkopf Trumpf's side, most recently with her criticism of the junta's inept and costly handling of the Iran war which has been fought for the benefit of Israel and has driven global fuel prices up, taking down Spirit Airlines while US and foreign oil companies have made obscene profits. Mace also threatened to side with Democrats on a war powers resolution."

    Yemen Under Constant Attack

    The Honorable US District Judge Dale Ho of the Southern District of New York:

    "TPS holders from Yemen are not killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies. They are ordinary, law-abiding people who have been granted status to be here because the Government has repeatedly determined, in accordance with the TPS statute, that Yemen is subject to an ongoing armed conflict, and that, due to that conflict, requiring them to return would pose a serious threat to their safety. That determination is subject to periodic review and can be changed. But Congress has, by statute, established a process for such review, which the Secretary failed to adhere to here. For the foregoing reasons, Plaintiffs Motions to Postpone the effective date of the termination of Yemen s TPS designation are GRANTED."
