On 14 August, North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un denounced the annual US-ROK military drill ("Ulchi Freedom Shield 2026") -- firing a test ICBM rocket into the sea as a sign of his displeasure on 12 August -" so, Dummkopf Trumpf bleated on 16 August the US will reduce future military cooperation with South Korea, citing Seoul's lack of support fighting Iran on behalf of Israel and Trumpf's "very good relationship with Kim Jong Un."
These annual drills are critical for integrating US C2 personnel with the ROK military
Poll results released from mega-oligarchs Larry and David Ellison-owned CBS: "Democrats are mostly positive on socialism and have a more favorable impression of it than of capitalism. Socialism finds more positive views among Democrats with college degrees than those without. They're even more likely to perceive a gap between the richest and the middle class."

In a letter issued earlier this week, FEMA officials reaffirmed the denial of IA funding which would have provided financial support and direct services to eligible individuals and households who have sustained uninsured or underinsured losses due to damage caused by tornadoes. FEMA also denied funding through the HMGP, which supports projects that help communities reduce future disaster risks and strengthen long-term resilience. On March 6, four tornadoes with intensities ranging from EF-0 to EF-3 impacted southern Lower Michigan. Communities near Edwardsburg, Cass County, in and around the city of Three Rivers, St. Joseph County, and along the north side of Union Lake in Union City, Branch County, were among the hardest hit.
Federal prosecutors in Chicago have been investigating Authentic Campaigns Inc., a Democratic fundraising firm once co-owned by Lauren Merchan, the daughter of NYS Judge Juan Merchan who in 2024 oversaw Dummkopf Trumpf's New York hush-money trial.
After conviction, Judge Juan Merchan sentenced Dummkopf Trumpf to "unconditional discharge" on 10 Jan 2025. The money laundering tax evading draft dodger called his trial "a very terrible experience," an "injustice," and a "political witch-hunt." Now we have Trumpf 2.0.
Police arrested Camron Harris (19) who is suspected of shooting five people at Virginia State University in Henrico County.

**** USCENTCOM CMDR: Sailors on USS Abraham Lincoln Facing Mental Health Crises ****
"USCENTCOM CMDR USN Adm. Brad Cooper acknowledged mental health challenges aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln.
Cooper visited the Lincoln as the US war against Iran on Israel's behalf dragged well into its fifth month without a clear end in sight.
The admiral's remarks follow reports that a sailor jumped overboard amid the aircraft carrier's long Middle East deployment."

Nota Bene: The IDF High Command issued a warning to its citizens on 31 Dec 2025 to be ready for a three-front war in the spring (the West Bank, Lebanon, and Iran) knowing that it would take weeks for US aircraft carrier groups (ACGs) to finish operations in Venezuela and then position themselves near Iran.

I'm shocked that these three Congressmen are ethically challenged.
Shocked.
Any time I see a report about mischief, FWA, or legislative nonsense in the US Congress -- like four AIPAC Democrats voting to cut SNAP benefits for hungry pregnant Americans (Link) -- I'm never surprised to see reports like this about America's nomenklatura hiding their pelf.
Never.

Below, people scrambling and ducking for their very lives.

In an average year, 880 people die and 1,857 are wounded by firearms in Kentucky, which has an overall grade of "F" for gun laws.
Kentucky has a population of 4,629,682 people, similar to Alberta Canada (5,057,077 people).
But Alberta suffered a grand total 98 homicides -- by firearms and other means -- in 2024.
Thanks to gun violence, besides deaths and terrible wounds, PTSD is spreading throughout the US population.
Imagine Woodstock and "Black Woodstock" in 1969 if firearms were so proliferant back then?
Endnote: On 6 Dec 1969, a Hells Angels member stabbed and killed Meredith Hunter (who was armed with a .22 for self-defense) at the Altamont Free Concert.

NYS Penal Law Section 65.20
Sentence of unconditional discharge
Between NYS Judge Juan Merchan and ex-USAG Merrick Garland, we have Trumpf 2.0.
Criteria. The court may impose a sentence of unconditional discharge in any case where it is authorized to impose a sentence of conditional discharge under section 65.05 if the court is of the opinion that no proper purpose would be served by imposing any condition upon the defendant's release. When a sentence of unconditional discharge is imposed for a felony, the court shall set forth in the record the reasons for its action.
Sentence. When the court imposes a sentence of unconditional discharge, the defendant shall be released with respect to the conviction for which the sentence is imposed without imprisonment, fine or probation supervision. A sentence of unconditional discharge is for all purposes a final judgment of conviction.
Muchas gracias, Juan y Merrick!
Camron Harris (19) threw his life away and authorities haven't disclosed any possible motives for this mass shooting.

In an average year, 1,226 people die by firearms in the Commonwealth of Virginia (pop 8.8m) which has a gun law rating of C+.
By contrast, Quebec Canada, with a similar population of 8,501,833 people, suffered a total 97 homicides in 2024. Nationally, there were 287 firearm-related homicides in Canada in 2024, with handguns being the most common weapon (56%).
Charges in a complaint are merely allegations, and every defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.










"The Republic of Korea, a staunch ally of the US, sent ~335,000 fighting men to South Vietnam from 1965 to 1973; ~5,500 were KIA, ~11,000 were WIA. Though the South Korean Army contributed most of those troops, members of South Korea's Marines, Air Force, and Navy also participated in the war, while Dummkopf Trumpf avoided combat in Vietnam by dodging the draft with a cowardly and spurious claim of suffering from bone spurs.'"
