HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced in a cabinet meeting that his agency has identified "interventions" that it says are behind rising autism rates and will "address them" next month. "We will have that answer for you," RFK Jr told Dotard Trumpf. He did not elaborate on what the "interventions" were, or how HHS will address them. The nephew of JFK first pledged in April to find the "environmental toxin" that he says must be behind rising autism rates by Sep 2025. Scientists dispute the reasons autism rates have rapidly increased in the last few decades, but most believe a combination of factors including better diagnostic criteria, genetics, and environmental pollution is likely at play. Experts have also doubted whether Kennedy's self-imposed September deadline was realistic. Even Kennedy's own CDC director said it's difficult to set hard deadlines when it comes to scientific discoveries. read more
At least a half-dozen universities across the country welcomed students to first-day-of-fall classes Monday with run-and-hide warnings about possible gunmen on campus. In almost all the cases, the reports were hoaxes or swatting calls. A few campuses said simply that no evidence of a gunman or violence was found. Students at the University of Arkansas, University of Colorado Boulder, Iowa State University, Kansas State University, the University of New Hampshire and Northern Arizona University, were terrorized by the false alarms. The University of South Carolina received two reports of an active shooter at Thomas Cooper Library in Columbia on Sunday night, the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga received a hoax active shooter call on August 21 and Villanova University near Philadelphia received two false active shooter reports during freshman orientation last week. read more
As morale among US ICE personnel sinks to new lows, the Trumpf junta is wasting more than $120,000 on a pair of high-performance Mustang GT Fastbacks to enhance the embattled deportation agency's efforts to attract new recruits. Obtaining the vehicles was "an immediate request by the White House, on Thursday, 7 August 2025," according to a federal procurement document. The Mustangs are expected to "enhance" the Trumpf junta's push to add some 14,000 new ICE agents "by serving as a bold, high-performance symbol of innovation, strength and modern federal service," and that the Mustang's "eye-catching design increases public engagement at outreach events and helps attract top talent by conveying a culture of excellence and forward momentum." read more
A person in Maryland has been diagnosed with a rare flesh-eating parasite known as the New World screwworm after traveling from Guatemala, marking the first confirmed human case in the US. The New World screwworm, a fly whose larvae burrow into living tissue, primarily affects cattle and other warm-blooded animals but can also infect people in rare cases. It causes severe, sometimes fatal damage if untreated. This is the first confirmed US case since the outbreak began to escalate in Central America and southern Mexico. read more
Dummkopf Trumpf's next two political targets for investigation seem to be Miles Taylor, the former DHS Chief of Staff who anonymously wrote the scathing op-ed screed about Trumpf during his first Reign of Terror. After seeing the news about the FBI raid on John Bolton's home, Taylor and wife surmised that they would be next for a search. The second target will probably be former NJ Governor Chris Christie. After Christie criticized Dummkopf Trumpf and ridiculed Ghislaine Maxwell's testimony on national TV, the morbidly obese president spewed venom on Truth Social alleging that then-Governor Christie was responsible for closing the George Washington Bridge in 2013 and that he sacrificed his own staff to stay out of prison. "Perhaps we should start looking at that very serious situation again? NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT" read more
Trumpers trying to keep people stupid.
Good point. I was looking at psychological factors.
Moreover, life is hard enough for American college students, but foreign students continue coming to the US.

The top three intelligence threats to America's secrets, intentions, and technology come from Russia, China, and Israel. US Army Counterintelligence Command, USAF OSI, and NCIS protect US military secrets, but the universities, technology centers, and hi-tech industries depend on the FBI, which the Trumpf junta has been diluting. Now Dummkopf Trumpf wants to bring in 600,000 Chinese students to the US?

Without the use of notes, the grandfatherly Mr. Fred Higginbotham hit all the salient points about how the federal government buys produce from the farms and the sky-rocketing prices people are suffering because of Dummkopf Trumpf's failed policies. Mr. Higginbotham also pointed out that House Republican Mark Alford was doing fabulously better than all of his constituents. And in his blue blazer, white slacks, and pocket square, Mark Alford was attired for a yacht party rather than a Missouri town hall. This oligarch had to take it on the chin for several minutes from an articulate geriatric which the audience approved.
Superrich Republican Mark Alford has a net worth of $18 million dollars.

In addition to brutal ethnic cleansing and raw naked homicide as this video shows, IDF soldiers have been sexually abusing Palestinian prisoners for years. See the 2014 report from MECA at the bottom. In 2024, an IDF soldier with a conscience leaked this video of his colleagues gang-raping a Palestinian detainee: youtu.be
Incredibly, 65% of Israeli Jews oppose criminal prosecution for soldiers suspected of raping Palestinian detainees.
While the conservative Republican Party can rely on white supremacists and Christian evangelicals in future elections, the liberal Democratic Party needs the progressive antiwar bloc as 5 Nov 1968 and 5 Nov 2024 both demonstrated.
The following Samaritans will stay home on Election Day rather than vote for an AIPAC-funded candidate that supports ethnic cleansing: The War Resisters League, Mennonite Central Committee (MCC), Jews Against Genocide, the Society of Friends (Quakers), Veterans for Peace, Code Pink, the Jesuits, and a host of others.
So, good luck in future campaigns to AIPAC Democrats Josh Shapiro, Chuck Schumer, John Fetterman, Cory Booker, Hakeem Jeffries, Jared Moskowitz, Kamala Harris, Deborah Wasserman Schultz, Andrew "Benedict Arnold" Cuomo, and the rest of your ilk who may need their votes in tight elections.

Palestinian teenage boys report they were sexually assaulted and tortured by IDF soldiers while in custody. The victim's testimonies match the accounts of other Palestinians who say they've been abused and tortured in Israeli detention since 7 Oct 2023. Last year an IDF soldier leaked a video of a Palestinian male prisoner being gang raped by IDF prison guards:

If this is true, there may be some underlying tensions at NATO HQ and shared US/UK NSA/GCHQ listening posts. And Dummkopf Trumpf's timing couldn't be worse. In a few weeks the decaying Commander-in-Chief goes to the UK where no doubt the formidable new head of MI6 -- an expert on Russian espionage -- will personally size up Dotard Trumpf for UK PM Keir Starmer.
