Spambot of the day — 21 Comments

  6. Gotta wonder if a spambot’s also responsible for this—deadly—nonsense…

    “Air traffic controllers say FAA hiring practices, ‘immunity program,’ led to DC plane crash”
    https://justthenews.com/government/federal-agencies/air-traffic-controllers-warn-faa-hiring-practices-immunity-program-led

    Gotta luv that “immunity” clause, though.
    (A real confidence builder!!)

    Immunity, amnesty and clemency (of all the worst of the worst) seem to be “Biden”’s MO….

  10. PA management? Not gonna happen. And Egypt already knows it, so take it as rhetorical negotiating stance, and no more.

  12. + Bonuses (Boni?):
    Matt Taibbi on the topic of Internews…
    “…A big rock overturned”—
    https://instapundit.com/701487/

    AND…no surprises here…but fave “American” pol Ilhan Omar UNPLUGGED…and finally outed…

    “…Ilhan Omar DID marry her brother and said she would ‘do what she had to do to get him “papers” to keep him in U.S.’, reveals Somali community leader.”—

    (That’s right: a gal’s gotta do what a gal’s gotta do. Though I think it should be clear to all of us that TRUMP made her do it…)

  13. Classic Turley on the Musk monster that the Democrats have created, just as they have made monsters of everyone who has DARED disagree with them—including Turley himself and Musk, both formerly aligned with the Left of Center.

    “Elon Musk and how the left makes monsters of us all”—
    https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/5133353-elon-musk-reduces-government/amp/
    Key grafs:

    …Across the internet, politicians and pundits are in a monstrous mood. The same people who spent the last year declaring the imminent death of democracy if Donald Trump were elected are now insisting that the real threat is the monster he has unleashed upon the federal bureaucracy.

    For Washingtonians, Musk is the bogeyman…

    … The key to their system was that you maintain orthodoxy by coercing people into silence. During the COVID pandemic, scientists who challenged the enforced view of masks, COVID-19 origins, and other issues were banned or fired. Others remained silent as they watched colleagues exiled for expressing their opinions.

    Musk had to be destroyed, or others might start to believe that they could also defy the groupthink.

    The problem is that intolerance for opposing views creates thousands of renegades and outsiders. I was one of them….

    I…began to question the growing orthodoxy in academia over the loss of free speech and viewpoint diversity, including the purging of faculties of conservative and libertarian voices. I was quickly targeted for it. But that campaign gave me an even greater understanding of the dangers of the anti-free speech movement from outside the system.

    On a much higher level, Musk seems to have felt the same liberating aspects of being declared persona non grata. They turned Musk into the very monster they feared.

    They are now doing the same thing with Mark Zuckerberg. After the head of Meta announced that he was going to end the robust censorship system on Facebook and other sites (as well as downsizing staff), the left went after him with the same unhinged hatred.…

  16. @ Barry > “Matt Taibbi on the topic of Internews”

    As shown in the Instapundit comments (which contain a better link than Glenn’s), Matt is preparing an expose of the latest confirmed scandal of our Democrat slush fund formerly known as the US Treasury.

    FWIW, I consider Taibbi the best independent investigative journalist on the web these days.

    The comments contain interesting examples of some people’s “change” moments, none of them a surprise, but I’m grateful they influenced a few people.
    Another commenter links to this post about Internews, with astonishing details.

    A Musk meme from the Insty post’s comments.

  17. @ Barry > ” fave “American” pol Ilhan Omar UNPLUGGED…and finally outed…”

    Sarah’s Insty link is to a 2020 Daily Mail story, which I bookmarked at the time, but it’s worth reading if you haven’t seen it.

    As the gist of the commenters’ discussion suggests: She’s still in the House even after that, so they really aren’t interested in “ethics” unless there is a Republican to oust.

  18. @ Barry > “Classic Turley on the Musk monster that the Democrats have created”
    A nice turn of phrase that wasn’t in your excerpt:
    “The idea is simple: If you throw a badger into a crowded car, people will get out. Musk is that badger.”

    There are lots of other good stories on The Hill’s sidebar.
    Not tired of winning yet, but if I see a penny I’ll pick it up.*

    https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5135533-consumer-financial-protection-bureau-to-shut-down-for-a-week-reports/

    The Office of Management and Budget’s Director, Russell Vought, has been recently attempting to crack down on the CFPB’s activities. In a social media post late Saturday night, he said he had “notified the Federal Reserve that CFPB will not be taking its next draw of unappropriated funding because it is not ‘reasonably necessary’ to carry out its duties.”

    “The Bureau’s current balance of $711.6 million is in fact excessive in the current fiscal environment.This spigot, long contributing to CFPB’s unaccountability, is now being turned off,” Vought added.

    NBC News has also reported that Vought sent an email to employees unveiling a series of directives for the CFPB that would instantly go into effect. Employees were told in the email to “cease all supervision and examination activity,” “cease all stakeholder engagement,” halt every pending investigation, not put forth any public communications and stop “enforcement actions,” per NBC.

    Schumer isn’t happy, so you know Vought is on the right track.

    https://thehill.com/homenews/5134820-andy-kim-democrats-government-shutdown-trump/
    “Democratic senator says his party is ready to shut down government over Trump’s actions”

    We really don’t care, Andy.
    That’s what we hired Trump to do.

    https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5135530-trump-directs-treasury-to-stop-making-pennies/
    “The cost of making a penny was nearly 3.7 cents in Fiscal Year 2024 and the coin has cost above face value to make for 19 consecutive fiscal years, according to the U.S. Mint’s annual report.”

    IOW, we are losing money from the Treasury – which goes from the taxpayers’ pockets into those of the mint employees and contractors.
    I don’t think Abe would mind being discontinued.

    FWIW, another post I saw about the penny problem noted that there were so many of them already in existence, and very few in circulation (when did you last pay for something with cash, let alone with pennies?), that the current stock would take care of any need for decades, if not forever.

    *The original proverb was “See a pin and pick it up, and all the day you’ll have good luck.”
    Pins were very valuable back when they were made by hand, and used for literally pinning people into their clothes, as some of the “Getting dressed in the X century” videos show.

    It’s easy to see how that morphed into pennies.
    However, the context of the rhyme itself is serendipitously relevant to the minting of pennies, that being “Take care of the pence, and the pounds will take care of themselves.”

  19. Absolutely.
    Thanks, AF…though I suppose the REAL question is WHY that badger had to be thrown into that car in the first place…

    WRT Shift-Shaper Schumer, he’s a genuine bell weather. But then so are most of his perverse, perverted, perverting party (there are several exceptions—if not nearly enough—but they’ve pretty much already jumped ship…and even those who’ve remained are still kinda wonky…)

    Anyway…related (Sarah Hoyt):
    “…we have had enough. We’ve all had enough.”—
    https://instapundit.com/701706/

    + Bonus
    Destroyers gotta destroy…

    …”MSNBC’s Chris Hayes Urges Dems To Double Down On Transitioning Children.”—
    https://instapundit.com/701609/
    “Treasury Employees Estimate Fraud in Entitlement Payments at $50 Billion Annually”—
    https://instapundit.com/701684/

    …which is why the Democrats and their poodles insist that Trump should “slow down…”

  20. @ Barry > ”MSNBC’s Chris Hayes Urges Dems To Double Down On Transitioning Children.”

    From Ed Driscoll’s observations on that post, at Instapundit:

    But this appears to be somewhat of a reversal in policy for MSNBC. In 2013 the network ran ads that their parent company Comcast-signed off in which the message was explicitly stated that “your kids are not your own.” Last year, Kamala chose a veep, who, as the Daily Caller noted, “Greenlit Law Allowing State To Take Child Custody From Parents Who Oppose Sex-Change Surgeries.” Now that there’s a Republican in the White House who doesn’t want to see them mutilated before they can consent as an adult to procedures that could permanently alter them, Hayes responds, “just stay the **** out of [the parents’] business!” Past performance, etc.

    This is not the first time, or first topic, on which Democrats demonstrate that if they didn’t have double principles they wouldn’t have any at all.
    In 2005, just after we moved from Texas to the Denver area, I saw a bumper sticker that said (referencing a then-recent controversy): Focus on your own d*** family.

    My response then, and now, is like those in the posts Sarah Hoyt linked to: I would be happy to do that if you would leave us alone!

  21. Indeed, they are rather, um, creatively flexible…
    (At least when it comes to their own “values”…)

    Though no doubt they’d make the claim that demanding (or expecting) consistency is colonialist, oppressive, capitalist, white supremacist and racist….oh, Zionist, too…
