Tom Skerritt, Picket Fences' and Top Gun' actor, dies at 93

Never watched those, actually... but apparently you have.

Let me ask you this, how's hating on your Dad or Gramps for what their Gen did to poor widdle you?

Or are they exceptions?

"Detention Demographics: According to data from the TRAC Reports Immigration Detention Quick Facts, approximately 70.6% of people held in ICE detention (46,436 out of 65,765 detainees) have no criminal convictions."

- Boomers normalized a lot

- Not accusing all boomers

Uh huh.

Actually, pedophelia was not a word most Boomers ever heard until the last decade or so, although it became topical in psychological circles earlier.

I'll be sure not to blame you personally for Nick Fuentes or the AI Apocalypses, though.

- It was as a result of this normalization of a previously verboten behavior

"Has pedophelia ever been normalized in the US?"

"Federal judge orders Trump administration to halt noncitizen voting investigation in 9 states

A federal judge in California has ordered President Donald Trump's administration to halt investigations in nine states into whether noncitizens are registered to vote.

U.S. District Court Judge Araceli Martinez-Olguin in Oakland found the government's effort is relying on data that is full of errors and that it's leading to intimidation of groups performing voter assistance efforts. She said it should be halted until polls close on Election Day, Nov. 3.

It comes as the Trump administration has been hunting for noncitizen voters throughout the country in the months leading into the midterm elections.

The administration has signaled that it's a major problem, when in fact it's quite rare, as even its own investigations have shown."

You are trying too hard to accuse an entire Gen for, in this case, the sins of a few.

One suspects the proverbial shoe will be on the other foot when people blame you for the AI Apocalypse and WW3, not to mention tictoc, incels, and neoNazis like Nick Fuentes.

He's likely to lose on keeping Jack Smith from testifying, too.

What a Lewzer!

Who are those guys, really?

Their butts must be better than their faces for DJT to be interested!

"Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy"

It is, and what can cause that absence?

Milgram wanted to measure the willingness of ordinary people to obey an authority figure who instructed them to perform acts that conflicted with their personal conscience, specifically trying to understand the behavior of perpetrators during the Holocaust:

"Inspired by Hannah Arendt's report on the trial of Adolph Eichmann in Jerusalem, Milgram wondered whether her claims about "the banality of evil" " that evil acts can come from ordinary people following orders as they do their jobs " could be demonstrated in the lab.

Milgram staged meticulously designed sham experiments in which subjects were ordered to administer dangerous shocks to fellow volunteers (in reality, the other volunteers were confederates and the shocks were fake).

Contradicting the predictions of every expert he polled, Milgram found that more than seventy percent of the subjects administered what they thought might be fatal shocks to an innocent stranger.

Collectively known as The Milgram Experiment, this groundbreaking work demonstrated the human tendency to obey commands issued by an authority figure, and more generally, the tendency for behavior to be controlled more by the demands of the situation than by idiosyncratic traits of the person."

"But the president seemed perfectly willing to abandon veterans if he doesn't see the results he wants in the midterm elections."

"Making good on the government's promise wasn't the only thing Trump dangled in front of North Carolina voters:

The president also pledged that the Department of Defense would invest $1.5 billion to produce semiconductor chips in the state.

Trump made a similar promise that the DOD would invest $100 million in Kentucky to revitalize a drug manufacturing facility " but only if Republicans win the midterm elections.

It seems like a lot of money to be bandying about, considering that he still owes every American $5,000."

Lying liar lies.

Shady's real Boss not making nice with Donald?

Seems like some Broligarghs are not so a'scairt of him anymore.

"Outgoing Texas Sen. John Cornyn (R) on Wednesday said he doubted Trump had no hand in the slowdown, as he doesn't believe Musk "would do this without at least the acquiescence of the White House."

"I think it's frankly shameful," Cornyn said on CNBC's "Squawk Box." "I think we should be supporting the victim, not the aggressor."

That's hilarious, if absurdly so... those were mostly songs written by 17 year old boys about 16 year girlfriends.

And much of the terminology was not the modern cynical angst-filled later Gen self-blaming online frustrated incel definitions of today.

"I have been deeply troubled by Paxton's conduct as Texas Attorney General, particularly his decision to challenge the results of the 2020 presidential election in other states in an effort to help Donald Trump remain in power," Neil Bush, 71, wrote.

"I have been a Republican for most of my life, and I still believe deeply in many traditional Republican principles.

But character matters more than party affiliation. Our democracy depends on leaders who respect our institutions, tell the truth, accept accountability, and seek to unite rather than divide," Neil Bush wrote.

Neil Bush said he sees Talarico as "a principled, pragmatic leader" who has a "willingness to listen to those with whom he disagrees".

"He speaks with respect, seeks common ground, and seems genuinely interested in bringing people together rather than driving them apart. His faith appears to be a deeply rooted source of humility, compassion, and conviction rather than a political weapon," Neil Bush wrote."

Character? Character? Trumpers don't need no stinking character in their Big Daddies!

"More than 100 letters thought to contain white powder were reportedly thought to be circulating in the US mail system. Election offices across the US have also reported receiving suspicious mail.

The mailings are under investigation by the FBI, the Capitol police and the US Postal Inspection Service.

The FBI declined to confirm "specific instances or letters", but said in a statement earlier this week:

"The FBI and US Postal Inspection Service are investigating a series of suspicious mailings sent to various addresses nationwide, including secretary of state offices and their related election offices, and congressional offices."

Whew! I'm just glad the competent appointees of the Drumpf Admin are on top of this!

Michelle could prolly win against Vance or Rubio or DJT 3.O.

But she'd rather not have her daughters assassinated by rwing trash.

"The Kremlin adviser was clearly unimpressed by what he heard.

"In terms of resolving the Ukraine crisis, there wasn't much there that was useful," commented Ushakov.

Later Russian state TV asked him about the prospects for peace.

"I don't know how close we are getting," Yuri Ushakov said, "but things are moving in that direction."

All rather vague.

It seems that President Putin doesn't feel under pressure right now to end the war.

He knows that Ukraine's air defences are under severe strain.

He knows that winter is coming and may well view the cold weather as an opportunity to pound Ukraine into submission.

He knows, too, that there is a US president in the White House who clearly wants a bigger, better, more profitable relationship with Moscow."

"A Putin-Zelensky-Trump trilateral may not be imminent.

But in China next month a meeting between Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump and Xi Jinping may well take place on the fringes of the Apec summit.

Some commentators here are already dubbing it "The New Yalta" - a reference to the Yalta Conference of 1945, where Stalin, Churchill and Roosevelt met to plan the political and territorial reorganisation of post-war Europe.

"Russia, China and the United States are the only superpowers right now in the world," Evgeny Popov says. "Of course, it will be good for the entire world if our leaders meet in China."

After nearly five years of war, that would put Vladimir Putin exactly where he wants to be - at the top table of global politics."

from the thread link

'Putin's Poodle' is just one of the names DJT will be remembered for.

"Speaking on Wednesday, Trump said:

"The other day I was talking to Vladimir Putin about settling his war with Ukraine, which I think we're getting closer to, by the way, maybe now the closest we've been."

Ushakov also told reporters that Putin reiterated to Witkoff that Russian troops were advancing everywhere across the vast front line and had a "strategic initiative".

Ukraine and its European allies have disputed Putin's claim, pointing to a virtual stalemate on the front.

On Wednesday, Zelensky said he would accept a deal that would freeze the war along the current front line."

If Vlad weren't targeting and killing civilians, he wouldn't be Vlad.

It's been his MO for decade; massacre the civilians first.

Wise of you not to argue that Elon's Jackboots would stay super shiny around you.

You certainly wouldn't... their boots would always be spitshined around you.

Ok.... so which of you guys dressed up as a Muslim and ate Visitors pu... cat?!

There are a ton of other polls showing DJT and Republicans down in the sewer from which they spewed.
