The Ides of March. Beware them, you will.

Culinarily speaking, any salad can be a Caesar salad if you stab it enough.

Ditto for salad dressing.

Old Radio Porn; Here is a picture that I found on-line of the old Telefunken AM/SW/FM Radio that my Dad got from a Fort Rucker Solider. Notice the green tuning eye in the upper right grill cloth area. You could see yourself in the highly polished wood cabinet.

Five Republican Minnesota state senators are set to introduce a bill tomorrow that would classify “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS), which they define as an “acute onset of paranoia” regarding the presidencies of Donald Trump, as a mental illness, according to state documents. and, The five co-sponsors, state Senators Glenn Gruenhagen, Justin Eichorn, Nathan Wesenberg, Steve Drazkowski, and Eric Lucero say that TDS should be added to the definition of mental illness and incorporated into the state’s legal definition through amended statutes.The Republican legislators write that symptoms may include “Trump-induced general hysteria, which produces an inability to distinguish between legitimate policy differences and signs… Read more »

The original court dismissed the defamation case, but the plaintiff won on appeal and now Maxine Waters has finally agreed to a deposition this month. A trial date has been set for April. Los Angeles, Ca – Former U.S. Navy veteran Joe Collins, a 2020 congressional candidate, filed a defamation lawsuit against Congresswoman Maxine Waters. He claims that during the 2020 House race for California’s 43rd District, she made false claims. These claims damaged his military service and reputation.Collins, who ran as a challenger to the long-serving congresswoman, claims that Waters’ campaign spent significant resources on marketing and advertising.

I just got home from mass, and after Mass while I was waiting for my husband to come pick me up, I had a delightful conversation with 4 year old Sebastian. He had a birthday recently, and he informed me that he was all of four years old. I of course was appropriately congratulatory and happy for him, and then I asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up. He informed me that he wanted to be a lobster.

This is almost laughable. Five years later the New York Times decides to publish an opinion piece about how “we were all misled” about the Wuhan lab leak. We weren’t misled – we were flat out lied to and public officials conspired to cover it up. Media figures now wonder why the public not only distrusts health officials and the medical/pharmaceutical industries, but exhibit outright hostility towards them. Anything here remind you of the 51 spooks who signed the letter claiming Hunter’s laptop was a Russian trick ?

The Big Red Pill. Jennifer Sey was being groomed to be the CEO of Levi Strauss. At least she was until she publicly called for schools to open during Covid shutdowns. As the mother of several children she saw the damage being done. Because Sey had the courage to speak out, she was harassed, isolated and forced out of her senior executive position.

I’m watching my “Return to Tradition” guy, and the ever-so-liberal bishops in Germany is actually being quoted as saying that “As a church, we should not point the moral finger”.

I actually thought that was what we were supposed to do. Pachapapa is trying to create a new, lukewarm church. I refuse to participate in lukewarmness. I think Scripture and Jesus were pretty clear about right and wrong. pp wants a “political church,” not a spiritual one.

He’s a wissing Freemason, and that explains a lot.

Trump should offer to drop all the tariffs on Canada in exchange for Alberta. It would be one helluva deal. Amid the growing tariff war, the bubbling secession movement is gaining speed. At a recent makeshift ceremony, Alberta local Dan Casselman swore an oath renouncing his allegiance to Canada in favor of the US, citing his fears his home nation is ‘doomed’. At the heart of many of so-called 51st Staters gripes is anger over the way they feel Alberta’s oil industry has been both demonized and exploited by liberals. and then this insult, The province provides 56 percent of all US… Read more »

More persecution of Catholics, another church vandalized.

I don’t see stories of Catholics entering mosques or Protestant churches and destroying their stuff. Am I missing those stories?

Update: some of the comments mention a cult for hot place may be involved. Usually they’re trying to hold a black mass at the altar, but I guess they didn’t have time to desecrate the space in that way.

More DOGEing. Maybe not from DOGE, but certainly in that vein. I can see a lot more pearl clutching and screaming from the left. One agency is supposed to help end homelessness (like THAT’S been effective!) so the media will spin it that Trump doesn’t care about the poor and afflicted. President Trump on Friday signed an executive order that aims to eliminate seven federal agencies, including ones that focus on media, libraries, museums and ending homelessness.The president directed the government entities “be eliminated to the maximum extent consistent with applicable law,” insisting they “reduce the performance of their statutory functions… Read more »

I’m sure I’m the only one that didn’t know Trump’s Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnick’s story. He lost over 600 of his employees in Tower 1 on 9/11, including his brother. He vowed to rebuild the company and make those employee’s lost families whole. He got roasted by the press in the interim but he succeeded. Great story here on Michael Berry’s Saturday podcast.

How it started…

Mugambe was a fellow housed within Columbia University’s Institute for the Study of Human Rights, whose fellows work to “address some aspect of a history of gross human rights violations in their society, country, and/or region,” in 2017.

How it ended…

A United Nations judge was convicted on Thursday of trafficking a young woman to the United Kingdom and forcing her to work as a slave.

Ugandan judge Lydia Mugambe, 49, “exploited and abused” the victim, prosecutors said, forcing her to work as an unpaid maid and caregiver while barring her from seeking other employment.
