Basketball
Vegas has moved within 1 win of holding the Stanley Cup. Man City finally won the UCL (and the treble, which is quite impressive). Now let’s wrap up the FFP investigation and do the math. This will be the extent of my NBA coverage. Le Mans was fun for a while. But the coverage focused way too much on the hypercard and not where the real fun was. And Nole did what Nole does when he gets to a final: he destroyed his opponent. I can’t wait to see him win the Grand Slam this year. And that’s it for sports.
That’s some quality infrastructure you got there. I remember when infrastructure bills funded repairs. Now they fund everything but.
This, to me, is hilarious. I just wish it would regularly happen here.
That’s quite the headline. I didn’t expect the coping and seething to happen until they started the actual trial.
Dude, please stop.
This guy really needs to stop talking. I don’t know who his attorney is, but he needs to tell him to stop talking to the media.
Arrivederci, Bunga Bunga! This dude was a piece of work. He will be missed.
I assume this happens with some regularity. And I wonder if it’ll be used as a push for virtual currencies.
How to lead
This is kind of sketchy behavior. But unless you enact some sort of price-fixing scheme (which they’ll probably do since its California), I don’t see how you can do much about it aside from comparison shopping to see if the price is in line with competitors.
The answer is no. No it does not. It’s just a taxpayer-funded boondoggle that is, thankfully, gamed any smarter people than the politicians running it.
Here’s a wonderful track. Man, I love these guys. And here’s another gem. Enjoy them both.
And enjoy this lovely Monday, dear friends. Me and Banjos are off to Mexico.
“That’s some quality infrastructure you got there. I remember when infrastructure bills funded repairs. Now they fund everything but.”
Keeping the infrastructure working doesn’t help the people that buy votes get anything. Hence those taxes go elsewhere at the same time as bureaucratic bullshit takes the cost of any public works magnitudes of orders more expensive because of all the people involved that add zero value but collect huge checks.
Yup. Same model as the schools from what I can tell. (And Defense at the Fed level).
10 PRINT “Oh, this critical thing (almost) everyone agrees is a fundamental job of government is falling apart! Quick -we need more funding!
Oh, this critical thing (almost) everyone agrees is a fundamental job of government is falling apart! Quick – we need more funding!”
20 GOTO 10
Dammit… WP formatting gets me every time. There was supposed to be a ‘Divert new funding and existing taxes elsewhere’… I mistakenly used greater than / less than to bracket it and it must have treated it as markup. Bleah.
I would have to say this is not a typical infrastructure repair issue. A truck full of fuel burned hot enough to cause a steel reinforced concrete bridge / overpass to collapse on one of the busiest highways in the country. This is an emergency replacement not infrastructure repair. It will also stress other roads greatly due to detours.
I am curious how fast this replacement will take compared to typical road and bridge repair/replacement.
It depends, does anyone important commute down that road? The fastest road repair I ever saw was on the approach from I90 to the state offices where the DoT offices were. And I never saw a smoother finish to a repaired surface either.
Yeah, when I cut north and then onto I-80 for a Utah or Back East road trip… it is so funny how Sacramento area roads are so much better…..
Strange, that.
Well the Prez will need to get back to the Airport from his office at Penn.
Also don’t forget all traffic on the east coast.
Well the Prez will need to get back to the Airport from his office at Penn.
If you use that stretch of 95 to go from Penn to the airport, you did something wrong.
Truckers don’t count, they might have supported that Trucker Convoy in Canada and its smaller cousin in the US.
Considering 95 will be closed or significantly detoured for months it doesn’t matter much. I Imagine the back ups on 95 will be insane.
No one will notice on 76. I mean, it’s a parking lot already.
Once you navigate the parking lot to I-95, you’re far enough south and heading south, that traffic won’t be bad. Sure, you’ll see a backup of people heading north, but to the Prez, those are little people that don’t matter.
Was it jet fuel?
[golf claps]
Who knows; 24 hours later the News still hadn’t confirmed what the fuel was. Is it so hard for someone to ask the transport company what was in the truck? But some engineering professor was on tv saying it was like 9/11 World Trade Towers with temps reaching 500 c. And immediately jumped to urging engineers to protect every bridge in the country from those ultra rare fires directly under them. Meanwhile, the odds of Gov. Shapiro calling Gov. DeSantis and asking him how he repaired a causeway and bridges in record time is nil.
‘And immediately jumped to urging engineers to protect every bridge in the country from those ultra rare fires’
That would be really dumb.
When they rebuilt the I-35W bridge in Minneapolis, it went super fast because they paid the contractors big bonuses for finishing early. The faster it was repaired, the bigger the bonuses. Funny how that works.
Wait a fucking second your holiness. Are you telling me people are motivated by incentives, like you know, getting rewarded for doing a job well and fast? Is this some kind of psyop shit you are pulling on me?
Good fast or cheap, pick one (government edition, so you only get to choose one)
There was a similar case in California about 10-15 years ago. The bridge somehow got repaired in a matter of weeks.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacArthur_Maze#2007_I-580_East_Connector_collapse
They should rebuild the bridge with people, mainly women, BIPOCs and QUILTBAG people. After all, infrastructure is people and DEI programs.
This is how you end up with the decision to close the entire highway system down to save Gaia and camps to get rid of the people so there are less cars on the road that would need highways and highway infrastructure.
They’re already working on that.
“That’s quite the headline. I didn’t expect the coping and seething to happen until they started the actual trial.”
How can the banana republic corruptocracy take down its political enemies and send a message to the fucking serfs that are saying they have had enough of it if the legal system actually allows people in jurisdictions they have not yet absolutely corrupted fight back. The lesson here is that they will soon make the case to get rid of jury trials.
I would have assumed that the DOJ did some extensive venue shopping before picking a judge for this show trial.
Oh, I am sure they were desperate to take this out of Florida to D.C. where they can basically win blatantly obvious bullshit charges.
TOS had an article on the Backpage retrial, and the federal prosecutors are stilling trying the same shenanigans that got a mistrial the first time around.
I used to be tacitly pro death penalty, because some people are evil/broken just need killing. Then I saw the Kyle Rittenhouse trial and realized giving this power to government was akin to making a child molesting/fucking maniac with a mile long record an elementary school guidance councilor.
I’d expect trump to request a bench trial. Judges understand the law a lot better than juries do.
I’m all for bewailing the Deep State and sham indictments as much as anyone — but if the stuff I was reading late last week about him texting employees to move stuff around explicitly so the Feds wouldn’t find it and explicitly lying about that to his lawyers is actually true (the articles I skimmed were pretty clear that the indictment seems to be citing subpoenaed text messages, so they have evidence if so — I think he’d be better off taking a plea deal because that’s pretty open and shut no matter what form of trial he goes for on the obstruction, at least.
But I suppose we’ll see.
One major element of 793 that the govt has to prove is that the NatSec information “is to be used” to damage the U.S. or benefit a foreign power.
Funny how Hillary Clinton was assumed to have no ill intent because she served the globalist agenda of the deep state, but this orange guy is an existential threat even though the public has gotten wise the deep states accusation trump was a Russian agent was all made up shit. It’s almost like the real defining point of whether the corruptocracy sees you as a good guy vs. a bad guy is if you help them keep being a corruptocracy vs. not.
Probably need to prove or at least convince the judge that the Espionage Act even applies to this case instead of the Presidential Records Act.
Can they get him on obstruction if there’s no underlying crime though? If he’s entitled to keep the docs, he should be free to move them around so state agents can’t steal them from him. And that’s the underlying question.
Which will inevitably lead to the Presidential Records Act, and that doesn’t bode well for the DOJ.
Can they get him on obstruction if there’s no underlying crime though?
Can you be arrested for resisting arrest?
Arrested, yes. But can they convict you for resisting arrest if you’d not committed a crime in the first place? I really don’t know.
Ask Martha Stewart.
Obstruction doesn’t require an underlying crime, merely failure to cooperate sufficiently with the government while it tries to destroy you and your life.
So if he acted to prevent an illegal search (since the FBI had no business trying to take the docs in the first place), they can still convict for a process crime alone?
Then why bother even having a fourth amendment?
Then why bother even having a fourth amendment?
DOJ collapses from agony of overly inflated erections.
“they can still convict for a process crime alone?”
I think so. Also, if trump really texted that stuff he’s dumber than I thought. He has to know they have access to all communications.
Trump is his own worst enemy. Doesn’t know when to keep his mouth shut, not put things in writing, stop digging a hole deeper, or hire loyal and competent subordinates. Can you imagine the kind of totalitarian shit that must have come out of, say, LBJ’s mouth but wasn’t put on record anywhere?
Charges are bogus either way. This is a national archives issue.
That would be smart, so because Trump, I won’t bet on that.
“They voted for DeStupid down there. And for me too. A jury trial is the way to go!”
-probably Trump.
LOL “DeStupid” is much better than “DeSanctimonious” or whatever else Trump came up with.
I’d expect the Illinois model to spread first — your trials can only be in Approved Locations like DC and NYC.
Welcome to Oregon. SB348 has this little tidbit: “SECTION 23. Any action challenging the legality, including the constitutionality, of this 2023 Act must be commenced in the Circuit Court for Marion County.
NH did the same thing during the Lil Rona Panic.
Any cases about Sununu’s Lil Rona Panic orders had to be heard in Merrimack County Superior Court.
Her ‘presumption of innocence’ nonsense could slow down our fast track to get Trumpenhitler to the gallows!

“I assume this happens with some regularity. And I wonder if it’ll be used as a push for virtual currencies.”
I recently shipped some gold collector coins overseas. You wouldn’t believe how freaking difficult and confusing it was to make sure the item got to the recipient instead of being solen either by the USPS or the criminals running the post office in that other country. I got the insurance, took pics, and signed up for regular communications of where the damned thing was. The USPS people couldn’t find a way to steal the thing and then contest the insurance so they delivered it after a few weeks. Then the crooks at that other country’s post office tried for a month to find a loophole to “confiscate” the items.
Fuck the evil bureaucracies of the world.
FedEx is the only way I ship anything if value.
Would you be surprised to be informed that there is a law prohibiting FedEx or UPS to ship collector coins of any kind so you are forced to go through the USPS? Cause that’s the play.
And by shipping coins, I remind you that I mean internationally.
I would be very surprised. Do you have a link? It’s my understanding that the law is aimed at currency and is meant to stop money laundering. Anecdotally, from many, many posts I’ve read on numismatic forms, nobody ever has trouble shipping if you call it “collectibles” or “numismatics” or anything other than “coins”.
When I asked UPS or FedEx they both told me they can’t ship collectable gold coins internationally. Don’t remember where I found it on their site but here: https://pe.usps.com/text/imm/immc2_014.htm
https://www.usps.com/international/shipping-restrictions.htm
I’m not surprised, but I did not know that.
I’m assuming that’s in place to try to keep you from getting your money out of the country in the form of gold and silver.
Just another FYTW from our betters.
From my research, they claim is that this is to prevent people from shipping gold out to bad actors (nations we don’t approve off), but they could simply have had a list of nations you couldn’t do this to, so I am certain it is to prevent you from getting your money/valuables not easily pilfered by the deep state to a place where they can’t fucking rob you.
Clearly you’re sending it to a middle man to forward on to the unapproved nations.
Therefore, we have to confiscate your contraband.
Anybody wanting to take gold and silver out of the country need do little more than charter a boat out of Miami or take their own boat on the falcon reservoir. You’ll have your stuff in another country in under two hours and it’ll never pass through customs.
What’s the cut that the Cuban government demands for that transaction?
No idea. My happy ass would be going due east to Bimini.

Houston gun buyback: From the picture, all Houston collected was a bunch of old .22 revolvers.
.22 revolver is a useful gun
Gangsters aren’t running around shooting people with .22. They got grandpa’s plinking guns.
Used to be the execution shot was a .22 behind the ear.
Or a knee-capping.
“Used to.”
If Houston intends to get guns out of the hands of criminals, the only caliber to look for is 9mm. And nobody will sell that for $200. The whole program is sad. Most likely some of those were used for that, by grandpa. Most of them look like country plinkers.

The governor of Pennsylvania is expected to issue a disaster declaration Monday as officials set up alternate routes following the collapse of an elevated portion of Interstate 95 in Philadelphia, which came down Sunday after a tanker truck caught fire below the roadway, leaving a portion of the East Coast’s primary highway with major damage that could take months to repair.
The absolute state of PA.
I remember when infrastructure bills funded repairs. Now they fund everything but.
We have to fund the building of walls and roads is other countries first.
Hmmm… so the idea is the tanker file weakened the steel in the support pillars?

How the Florida judge overseeing Trump’s trial could hobble the Justice Department’s case

Don’t worry. This is only to give the appearance of impartiality to the MAGAts.
This guy really needs to stop talking.
He is going to get Chauvined either way.
Houston’s gun buyback program is part of a larger effort to reduce gun violence
No, it isn’t
Agreed. It’s so irritating.
If they wanted to reduce gun violence, they would at a minimum be locking most of these criminals they let out without bail these days and throwing away the key.
Those are the magic words that allow dodging responsibility when the program in question turns out to be useless.
Empty coke cans everywhere can float down the river in peace now that all those plinkers are sold to the government.

the left vs a lemonade stand robbery
Sigh… there are sure a lot of sick, sick people out there.
Slippery slope arguments are supposed to be a fallacy… but boy between stuff like this and oh, State Legislatures loudly applauding religious mockery and promotion of depravity and debauchery, you really have to wonder sometimes that maybe the prior 10000 years of human history was on to something with tight religious / societal norms (at least for most of the people… yes, the self-appointed “elites” have always apparently flaunted morality… it only varies in how publicly (pubic-ly?) they feel they can flaunt it).
I’d always thought of that group as tongue-in-cheek as opposed to “blasphemous” but whatevz. They absolutely do not belong at baseball games, state legislature events, or in front of children. The fact that everyone is shoving them down our throats speaks volumes about the goals of the left.
1. You’re not wrong.
2. However,
2a The founders of SoPI didn’t believe blasphemy is actually a thing so it couldn’t have been deliberately blasphemous and
2b Under the “Intent isn’t fucking magic” standard used to justify hostile environments being decided entirely by the “victim” only said victims get to define what is blasphemous.
If you took all of those commenters and put them in an unmarked mass grave the world would be a better place.
What? There are assholes on social media?
The little kid wore a “racist” outfit? That’s their take?
I figured calling everything racist as a sole method of argument would collapse at some point, but it seems to have remarkable staying power. Unfortunately it works. A lot.
I want to point out my revelation that the same FBI currently helping a weaponized and politicized DOJ -thanks for really fundamentally transforming us into a shithole banana republic Obama! – run a horrible racket masquerading as a criminal prosecution against a person they see as the representative of the American people that have realized the US bureaucratic state is selling them out for its own benefit, and thus is an existential enemy to their weaponized corruptocracy, worked to protect the people that weaponized. Hillary, which clearly had committed crimes with that bathroom email server, was not only let off scoot free, but protected, because they needed to protect Obama and his legacy in the most corrupt and criminal administration in the history of this country.
Differential enforcement by the legal apparatus is the clear sign of a government that is corrupt and criminal. Especially when it so obviously protects obvious criminal behavior by those it favors while making up crimes to take down its opponents. And have no doubt the opponents are not the republican party, but the American people that no longer want the globalists-controlled US corruptocracy that is destroying the country, the middle class, and taking the world to the brink of catastrophe.
globalists-controlled is a dogwhistle for the far right. It is a conspiracy theory. it has been debunked. Nothing to see here citizen. FBI is watching so honest Americans can sleep at night worry free.
Make sure you sleep with one eye open honest Americans, cause if you go by historical precedents, as soon as you become inconvenient to the the new feudal lords, they will come for you as well.
Promising to utilize a legal/constitutional authority damages the rule of law.
Anchor Dana Bash said, “You just heard your fellow 2024 candidate Vivek Ramaswamy say he would pardon Donald Trump on his first day in office. What is your reaction?”
Hutchinson said, “Well, that’s wrong. It is simply wrong for a candidate to use the pardon power of the United States of the president in order to curry votes and in order to get an applause line. It is just wrong. It shouldn’t happen that way. If you start down that path it is unending. And so we shouldn’t be promising and holding out the fig leaf of a pardon because that undermines our jury system. It undermines the grand jury that found probable cause to have him say there is going to be a pardon anyway for this. That really undermines the rule of law in our country. I have served my lifetime supporting. And it is offensive to me that anyone would be holding out a pardon in these circumstances.”
Only we can use the power of government to reward friends and punish enemies.
What about promising to ‘forgive’ billions in loans? Asking for a few friends.
Arkansas really knows how to crank out the shitty politicians from both parties.

While it cannot be seen in this photo, the American flag is being flown on top of the White House in the center of the building, and therefore, the flag code is not being violated.
If there is one US flag somewhere in the country that is at a higher elevation than this display then all is well, I guess.

Flying it on all our embassies around the world has also contributed to our foreign policy failures. Proclaiming to another country that we don’t respect their values and will preach wokeness is a bad starting point.

Classic wartime propaganda
Where does this drive to annihilation come from? In 1912 the Russian-Jewish psychoanalyst Sabina Spielrein – who was murdered by the Nazis, while her three brothers were killed in Stalin’s terror -first put forward the idea that people were drawn to death as much as to life. She drew on themes from Russian literature and folklore for her theory of a death drive, but the founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, first found her ideas too morbid. After the First World War, he came to agree with her. The desire for death was the desire to let go of responsibility, the burden of individuality, choice, freedom – and sink back into inorganic matter. To just give up. In a culture such as Russia’s, where avoiding facing up to the dark past with all its complex webs of guilt and responsibility is commonplace, such oblivion can be especially seductive.
But Russia is also sending out a similar message to Ukrainians and their allies with these acts of ultra-violent biblical destruction: give in to our immensity, surrender your struggle. And for all Russia’s military defeats and actual socio-economic fragility, this propaganda of the deed can still work.
Our enemies are inhuman monsters, implacable demons capable of the most horrific destruction and murder imagineable.
well when it comes to russians it aint that wrong.
I think Brooks was calling the Ukrainians inhuman monsters.
Savages, indeed.

There was a very similar interstate bridge fire/collapse on I-85 near Atlanta a few years ago. I don’t remember exactly how quickly it was repaired, but it was quite fast. The engineering and construction for a plain steel/concrete bridge is actually relatively straightforward.
Much of the “normal” time comes from the fact that major infrastructure work has to be managed while the existing system is still flowing. Lots of doing, half-way builds, undoing, move over, etc. Not the case here so much.
Much of the other “normal” time is to maximize the grifting, of course. For this one they’ll grift harder BECAUSE of the speed, so it all works.
I remember it being pretty fast.
When the I-64 bridge from Louisville to New Albany, IN got condemned, it got repaired in a hurry too. Not quite as fast, but faster than the original projections. That was interesting, because it was a standard inspection and instead of saying this needs work, lets get it scheduled, they shut the bridge down NOW. Which caused chaos that first day, as it was shut down mid-day, after morning commute but before afternoon commute home.
Meanwhile, they worked on improving that portion of I-65 through Jeffersonville for like a decade.
The 2nd I-65 bridge was fucking stupid.
The east end bridge made sense to semi-complete I-265. But there was no need for a new downtown bridge.
The 86-64 idea made the most sense. Reroute I-64 across the east end bridge and follow I-265. Redo the downtown riverfront without an interstate along it. The old I-64 bridge on the west side would be part of an I-164 connector to I-64 and I-264.
Arrivederci, Bunga Bunga! This dude was a piece of work. He will be missed.

Italy’s controversial former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi – famed for his notorious ‘Bunga Bunga’ sex parties – has died aged 86 after being admitted to hospital with leukaemia last week.
RIP
When I read stuff like this I am always pushed to remind people that the deep state’s problem with the bad orange man isn’t just personal, but that he represents the uppity serfs that rebel against the will and globalist agenda of the corruptocracy. Taking Trump down is more about telling the populists that have enough of the evil shit since Obama weaponized the system and made them intolerable, to bend the knee or else.
It’s personal to the simpletons who watch MSNBC and believe it all. Same people who loved him back when he had a TV show.
It’s business to the people in charge.
They’re just here to promote peace and justice
Soros’ business holdings include his nonprofit Open Society Foundations, which is active in more than 120 countries around the world and funnels about $1.5 billion annually to groups such as those that back human rights and promote the growth of democracies around the world, according to its website.
Yes, yes of course. A force for good.
Let’s just hope his son is more Fredo than Michael.
Let’s hope the son is more Hunter than Beau.
I’d be quite happy if both Soros and his son were exactly like Beau.
It’s just honest philanthropy.
During the interview with the newspaper, Alex expressed concern that former President Donald Trump would return to the White House and hinted that the Soros organization would play a key financial role in the 2024 presidential race.
“As much as I would love to get money out of politics, as long as the other side is doing it, we will have to do it, too,” he said in the interview that took place at the fund manager’s New York offices.
It’s a battle for the soul of America.
the Soros organization would play a key financial role
Is that organization U.S. based? If not, how many laws are they violating?
They support the left, so none.
Oh they’re still violating the laws on foreign influence, it just isn’t going to be prosecuted by the people they helped elect.
Which reminds me – FUCK THESE VOTERS.
“As much as I would love to get money out of politics, as long as the other side is doing it, we will have to do it, too,”
The left outspends the right 2-3:1.

Surely there will be accountability for this unlawful arrest.
Criminal charges against Damon Atkins, the Pennsylvania man who was arrested Saturday for publicly quoting the Bible, were dropped after the county District Attorney reviewed videos of the incident.
“After a review of the incident which took place on June 3, 2023, in the 800 block of Washington Street in the City of Reading, the District Attorney’s Office has withdrawn the charges of disorderly conduct filed against Damon Atkins,” a Facebook post from the Berks County District Attorney said.
Hey, it is Reading. Hasn’t been a good place to assert one’s rights for ages and ages. Pre-WWII, the incumbent mayor (D) had a potential primary rival committed to an insane asylum before the election and let him out after the primary. “Weaponizing” the court system has long been in play in America. In the last decade, Congressman Curt Weldon (R) lost his long-held seat in Delaware County when the FBI raided his daughter’s office two weeks before the election, alleging all sorts of potential crimes related to foreign dealings. After Weldon lost the seat (held by Republicans for over 100 years) no charges against him were ever brought.

Especially since we already had decriminalized MJ for the most part.
In the previous legislative session, they snuck through a bill that said hemp and thc products were legal. To avoid scrutiny, they didn’t add any taxes or regulations. The DFL thought they had pulled a fast one and that they could add the taxes and regulations in a special session later.
The old GOP leader of the Senate showed some actual smarts and said, “naw, let’s just let it go”. Amazingly enough, there were no deaths due to unlicensed THC edibles after they were legalized. The only real complaint was that edibles were sometimes much stronger than they were supposed to be.
Thankfully we now have “legal” MJ complete with taxes, bureaucrats and red tape. Those people who have been making edibles for a couple years now get to pay an extra 10% tax and have to apply for a license.

“I’m thrilled about this unique opportunity to lay out the whole story of how the government promotes fossil fuel development, how those policies exacerbate climate change, and how that in turn harms me and the other youth plaintiffs,” said Gibson-Snyder.
Jim Nelson, a retired Montana supreme court justice, says Montana has “never, never” fulfilled its duty to maintain a healthy environment. Just this session, he said, the state’s legislature enacted two dozen bills that will “adversely affect the environment”.
“The legislature basically thumbed its nose at these constitutional provisions,” Nelson said.
A favorable judgment, he said, could “force the legislature and public officials in the state administration to actually do what the constitution requires”.
The two-week trial in Helena, Montana, is scheduled to run from 12 to 23 June. A judge is expected to issue a ruling sometime after its conclusion.
“Given the urgency of the climate crisis, we would hope that she would make a decision fairly promptly, but we totally understand that she’s going to have a whole lot of evidence and a whole lot of testimony to consider as well as to research,” said Philip Gregory, an attorney for the plaintiffs. “So it could be a matter of weeks or it could be a matter of months.”
The court case specifically alleges that two Montana statutes are unconstitutional: the state energy policy, which directs statewide energy production and use, and a part of the Montana Environmental Policy Act which prevents the state from considering how its energy economy may contribute to climate change.
Leave it in the ground. We derive no benefit from it.
Why should New York and California have all the fun? We can impoverish ourselves too!

I can only shudder when I think about how much this will end up costing the state to replace every single state flag. And it won’t change a thing.

Does the current flag have some wrongthought or someone who must be unpersoned?
Yes.

I think it is also dishonest to describe the Indian as “riding toward the sunset”. Seems to me that the Indian is riding toward the farmer and trampling his newly planted crops.

To be solved by erasing the “native”, no doubt.

Go with a rainbow flag, with Islamic crescent, and be done with it.

No, it’s just ugly as fuck.
Held v Montana follows the highly publicized 2015 Juliana v United States in which 21 young people sued the US government for violating their constitutional rights to life, liberty and property by enacting pro-fossil fuel policies that drove climate change. Last week, a US district court ruled in favor of the youth plaintiffs, allowing that their claims can be decided at trial in open court.
Both the federal and Montana suits were filed by the non-profit law firm Our Children’s Trust. Litigation based on state constitutional rights, brought by the same firm, is currently pending in four other states. One of those cases, brought by Hawaii youth plaintiffs, is set to go to trial, possibly as soon as this fall.
Cancerous destruction from within.
Also- “Non profit” law firm; how droll.
Some bars for standing are on the floor apparently.
Yeah, it’s the kids themselves that decided out of the blue to do this. It’s certainly not a legal strategy dreamed up by adult activists using kids as puppets.
And bullshit that it’s about previous actions. They want to force legislation through court decisions.
So, these kids somehow have standing to sue the government to prevent future temperature changes, but people who can show direct personal impact of government policies often don’t have standing.
What a farce.
I’m fine with this. Let those states do stupid shit. It will only hasten the national divorce.
There will be no national divorce and the federal suits will nationwide if successful.
Could always be a divorce, Italian style.
No they won’t. There’s none of those rights enshrined in the US constitution. This would just allow their states to proceed with idiotic regulations. I can’t see how they’d be binding federally.
This was no boating accident
Caught on camera, a bear was spotted splashing through the Gulf of Mexico before running up the Destin shore just before noon, according to CNN Newsource.
Swimmers and beachgoers in and near the water at the city in Florida’s panhandle can be seen near the bear, as it frolics in the water before running off into nearby sand dunes, according to the person who captured the animal on video.
Chris Barron, who posted the video on Twitter, wrote on the social media platform, “A bear just swam from way out in the ocean to shore in Destin. Insane.”
Maybe he was a Cuban bear, looking for a better way of life.
The beaches of the Florida panhandle already has had shark attacks. Water-based bear attacks would mix things up a bit.
Spinoff to Sharknado on the horizon?
Is spotting bears at Florida really that uncommon these days?
*Florida beaches
This has a better plot that Cocaine Bear already.
What if the bear had been of one of those chartered fishing things and had done so much cocaine that it told other people to hold its beer as it jumped into the water and swam several miles back to shore?
See…way better plot!
Putin is master of Russia.
Bear symbolizes Russia.
Bear comes ashore in Florida.
Trump lives in Florida.
Connect the dots, people.

Actually, now that I think about it. This is also about the Fed meeting tomorrow and trying to make it less likely that they’ll hike.

If only we had the requisite energy production capability.
With the smoke from Canada and word that solar production went into the tank, the world is like “Oh, we just need to darken the sky to hasten the USAs demise…wasn’t there a movie or several movies with this exact plot! Quick, get to Blockbuster and rent them!”
Fuck Albertsons and Vons. Apparently they don’t want any business. No more ‘normal’ eggs on our shelves. A dozen is $5-6 while down the street at a Smiths they are $1.49/dz. That is all.
We had one of those crazy days yesterday where if you were in the sun it was hot, but if you were in the shade you were cold.
I’m shocked- SHOCKED! I tell you
Much of the theft was brazen, even simple.
Fraudsters used the Social Security numbers of dead people and federal prisoners to get unemployment checks. Cheaters collected those benefits in multiple states. And federal loan applicants weren’t cross-checked against a Treasury Department database that would have raised red flags about sketchy borrowers.
Criminals and gangs grabbed the money. But so did a U.S. soldier in Georgia, the pastors of a defunct church in Texas, a former state lawmaker in Missouri and a roofing contractor in Montana.
All of it led to the greatest grift in U.S. history, with thieves plundering billions of dollars in federal COVID-19 relief aid intended to combat the worst pandemic in a century and to stabilize an economy in free fall.
An Associated Press analysis found that fraudsters potentially stole more than $280 billion in COVID-19 relief funding; another $123 billion was wasted or misspent. Combined, the loss represents 10% of the $4.2 trillion the U.S. government has so far disbursed in COVID relief aid.
10% sounds awfully conservative. But with helicopter money, does it really matter where it lands? As I recall, they explicitly eliminated basic verification processes.
Well we have to go after the grandma making quilts and selling them on Facebook Marketplace to recoup the allowed theft duh.
I would think just the wasted part is like a quarter
All of it was wasted. Probably a quarter was stolen.
eh its only bits in a computer
Helicopter money?
You need C5-A or C-141 room to cover the….(what was it?) $785M cash dropped off in the mideast ?

Someone wants attention. $5 says the Daddy it never knew never took it fishing. Or passed a baseball in the yard.
How could so much be stolen? Investigators and outside experts say the government, in seeking to quickly spend trillions in relief aid, conducted too little oversight during the pandemic’s early stages and instituted too few restrictions on applicants. In short, they say, the grift was just way too easy.
——-
Most of the looted money was swiped from three large pandemic-relief initiatives launched during the Trump administration and inherited by President Joe Biden. Those programs were designed to help small businesses and unemployed workers survive the economic upheaval caused by the pandemic.
The pilfering was wide but not always as deep as the eye-catching headlines about cases involving many millions of dollars. But all of the theft, big and small, illustrates an epidemic of scams and swindles at a time America was grappling with overrun hospitals, school closures and shuttered businesses. Since the pandemic began in early 2020, more than 1.13 million people in the U.S. have died from COVID-19, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
We had to do SOMETHING!.
And that something certainly could not have been to allow the economy to function normally and to focus attention on specific vulnerable groups.
If only we’d had Community Notes for the last 50 years. Greenpeace’s bullshit wouldn’t have been able to infect political discourse and we might have been able to lower CO2 emissions.

JPMorgan has reached “an agreement in principle” to settle a proposed class action suit filed by ‘Jane Doe’ – an unnamed victim of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, for $290 million – a sum which both parties agreed not to disclose until it’s included in a court filing next week, but someone promptly leaked to the NY Times.
“The parties believe this settlement is in the best interests of all parties, especially the survivors who were the victims of Epstein’s terrible abuse,” JPMorgan said, according to Reuters.
The proposal would settle a case filed in Manhattan federal court in November by an anonymous woman on behalf of Epstein’s victims, which could potentially be more than 100 women, The New York Times reported.
Just pay them, and they’ll go away. It’s not like there is an infinite supply of new claimants waiting in the wings.

Thinking of how long it takes a snapping turtle to realize it is dead and give up the ghost. Even after cutting its head off a snapper will still try to bite you for a good while.
See also Pike and Muskie.
Tres Sr. caught a 60″ northern once when we were in Michigan. Having removed the head from the body, he went to reach for a filet knife and the thing snapped on his thumb, slicing it well with those sharp teeth. I can still see the blood in the sink- I think I was around 9 or 10 at the time.
I can take a whole herd of them down with the cleaning supply shit in my kitchen cabinet. And would having to rent a large vehicle to put the fertilizer stuff in still apply as things in my home if I just need to stop and buy some?
Probably anything grizzly-sized and below. I don’t have my .50BMG anymore, but I do have several 12ga. shotguns and a case of Brenneke max-penetration slugs.
00 Buck to the body, then a 12 gauge slug or 2 to it’s armored head.
Do I get to detect it at range?
Nope, it gets first bite.

Meanwhile, JPMorgan executive Mary Erdoes is facing scrutiny. As the bank’s head of asset and wealth management and part of Dimon’s inner orbit, she has been contending with a constant drip of Epstein related emails which paint a picture of a very solid relationship with a post-conviction Epstein.
Her name came up at least 59 times in Dimon’s May 26 transcript. Meanwhile, last week, just before today’s settlement was announced, lawyers for Jane Doe asked the judge to recall Dimon and Erdoes for more depositions, citing an important document produced in discovery.
Public enemies must be denied all access to financial services.
This is about taking down Dimon. The Davos/WEF crowd want him out of the way.

Before leaving office, former President Donald Trump approved emergency aid measures totaling $3.2 trillion, according to figures from the Pandemic Response Accountability Committee. Biden’s 2021 American Rescue Plan authorized the spending of another $1.9 trillion. About a fifth of the $5.2 trillion has yet to be paid out, according to the committee’s most recent accounting.
Never has so much federal emergency aid been injected into the U.S. economy so quickly. “The largest rescue package in American history,” U.S. Comptroller General Gene Dodaro told Congress.
“That crazy bastard Trump, firehosing all that cash in every direction. We all tried to stop him, but he just ignored us.”
The only entities who actually got rescued were the European banks.

The coronavirus pandemic plunged the U.S. economy into a short but devastating recession. Jobless rates soared into double digits and Washington sent hundreds of billions of dollars to states to help the suddenly unemployed.
