Enough of these fucking “professors,” man, so far removed from the daily toil of life in the Inverted Totalitarian Cuntry of Depravity and Suckling the Teat of the Jewish State of Hell.
In late April, Norwegian professor Glenn Dieson sat down with Richard Wolff, one of the world’s most prominent Marxist economists, to discuss how these impacts to the global economy will shape Trump’s war plans (or lack thereof), and why the last two months have signaled the “decline of the American empire.”
So, daily, now, I am the formerly known Professor Pablo, now the New and Improved Wage Slave, Blue Collar, 69 years old, and county, a la working for a vacation home rental outfit, slogging clean laundry and picking up dirties all throughout Lincoln County.
Up and down stairs with military-boot-camp-sized duffle bags. A hundred miles a day, maybe, in the company van. Solo.
And, lo and behold the workers, the house cleaners, all older, mostly, and mostly Latino/a.
Try doing that job at age 55 or 60, sure, and the gasoline? Hmm, $5.09 a gallon to get to the job site and back, your own gasoline. Paid piece meal for each house, that is, each rental unit has a size (fucking usually three stories on the beach, so sand sand sand is your enemy) and calculated minimum and maximum cleaning time in and out. And, the people renting these units have a check-in time of 5 pm. Think $300 or more a night, with a cleaning fee thrown in. You break it, you pay for it.
Fucking Glen and Richard have ZERO idea:
Hello! Hope all is well. My name is Victoria, and I’ve been cleaning vacation rentals for 2 years. I’m thorough and have a strong attention to detail. I have experience in going live for first time Airbnb. I have a lot of passion and drive for this type of work, I know what it takes to turn a property in a few hours and not rushed but to a pristine level of clean. I care about the guest experience. If you’re not a superhost now, I believe that by working with me, we can achieve that goal together. Hope to work with you soon! Thanks.
“This is a desperate government whose plan is shot and it’s trying desperately to figure out how to get out of this.”
Wolff
I don’t have a crystal ball. But Mr. Trump has lost a great deal of his base. People who voted for him because of one or two or three issues — those people, he has now lost. Trump cannot afford a spike in interest rates. He is, at this point in my judgment, relying on two things to survive politically: Whatever remains of the MAGA base, and the richest 10% of the United States.
The stock market is very high. It took a momentary dip with the Iran war, but it basically presumes that this war will be over soon and it will not cost any rich person anything.
Therefore, Glenn, here is the closest I’m going to come to a prediction. My guess is the government will give the states all the swap they want, give them access to as many dollars as they need to pay off as many debts as they have without selling treasuries or disinvesting in the U.S. stock market, because it’s too dangerous.
They told themselves that they could go into Iran and decapitate the Ayatollah and kill a few other leading generals and advisors, and that the system would collapse. [The] United States could then dictate terms for a new government, regime change, and a new Shah of Iran, replicating more or less what the Shah of Iran used to do for the United States.
There’s a clip of Vance [almost] a year ago talking about war in Iran. It has Vance explaining why going into the war with Iran is a good idea. A very strong endorsement by the vice president, in which he says [something like] the following: Previous presidents all knew that Iran was a disaster for the United States, but they were too dumb to do anything about it. The difference is, Trump isn’t too dumb, and we’re going to do it when, well, Obama didn’t, and Bush didn’t, and Clinton didn’t, and we’re going to do it.
That’s why, when Tulsi Gabbard and other intelligence officials told them they were wrong about Iran, they just didn’t listen. It was too attractive. And now the on-again, off-again oil management. This is a desperate government whose plan is shot, whose opportunities in that direction are all gone, and it’s trying desperately to figure out how to get out of this.
For several months, they would kill two or three people in a boat near Venezuela. No arrests, no trial, no lawyer. When we arrest people for drug traffic, which we do inside the United States, they automatically are entitled to a lawyer, a trial, to defend themselves. So here we have a complete negation of the entire legal apparatus, and that is too much for a significant number of people who otherwise would like Trump, but they can’t go with this.
CAPITALISM is working, man: Monopolies, Totalitarian Overlords controlling food, water, air, energy, transportation, education, culture, finance, banking, real estate, our FUCKING lives, from cradle to grave to the fucking AFTERLIFE. Not sure what Wolff sees as capitalism that every fucking worked for anyone but the overlords and the rich.
I love these Palestinians, but really! Ibn Hattuta Criticizes Double Standards in Global Media Coverage of Gaza
========================================================================
Ibn Hattuta” criticized global media for focusing on the Hantavirus outbreak aboard the “MV Hondius” while ignoring Gaza’s humanitarian catastrophe.
Jordanian-Palestinian content creator Qassem Al-Hattou, widely known as “Ibn Hattuta,” criticized what he described as double standards in global media coverage after receiving extensive media inquiries about the “MV Hondius” vessel, where a deadly Hantavirus outbreak was reported, while the ongoing war in Gaza continues to receive limited international attention despite the scale of devastation.
Which fucking media history does he understand or not understand? Is he afraid to say the media, the press, the presstitutes, are all bought and sold by and for the Jews? Are they just downright afraid to call a fucking Jewish Spade a Jewish Overlords?
People who were not ill, without any symptoms, were designated “pre-communicable” and a “threat” based on some handwaving “rules” that CDC uses and nobody can question, or review were kept in detention, until CDC decides if they can be released.
VACCINE CARTEL AND US ARMY ARE DEVELOPING 13 HANTAVIRUS VACCINES & GENE THERAPIES
6 DNA “vaccines” (US Army)
3 mRNA “vaccines” (Moderna, China, Canada)
2 viral vector “vaccines” (UK, Canada)
1 inactivated (licensed in Korea)
1 protein subunit
I will NOT be taking any of them (from X, not my verbiage. I have never taken vaccines post age 36 years of age, no matter how many times the PA or NP or MD asks me about all those fucking shots!)
But, too much going on in the killing fields of Syria, Lebanon, Palestina, Gaza to get into the weeds on these fucking bioweapon jabs, and the Jew Jab mRNA fucked up shit.
Grand Princess Quarantine Orders – Discussion with Dr. Jane Ruby

Recall that on March 5, 2020, the Pentagon conducted the first Operation Warp Speed press conference, where several fake pandemic warriors from Ft. Detrick (USAMRDC) announced a few curious things.
Note that Fort Detrick was the center of the U.S. biological weapons program from 1943 to 1969. Since the renaming of the biological weapons program into “infectious disease research”, it has hosted most elements of the United States biological defense program. Meaning, the biological weapons programs continued at Ft. Detrick and in many academic and private labs around the U.S. and world-wide, but now at much greater scale, scope and funding. Despite all this investment, they still can’t make viruses that spread by themselves, so they need to fake pandemics by declaring them, producing fraudulent computer models, murdering some people, etc. Critically, they need to claim they have a PCR “sample” of a totally scary pandemic potential “novel virus”.
During the presser on March 5, 2020, Col Wendy Sammonds-Jackson announced that “we (the DOD/USAMRDC) have received the pathogen (SARS-Cov2) and we are growing it”:
She’s got THE SAMPLE! Yippee! We are off to the races. The DOD team stated that the alleged sample of the pathogen came from to 1 (one!) US patient from Washington state. Even if that really happened, a sample of one is absolutely meaningless for anything – diagnostic, treatment or vaccine development. I believe that 1 “sample” was only necessary to check the exemption box that allows to classify the activities that followed as “defense, infectious disease research”, rather than making of the internationally prohibited bioweapons. The production of these prohibited substances was necessary for seeding the subsequent “pandemic” and the deadly OWS EUA Countermeasures theatrics that it enabled. Prior to March 5, 2020, there had been no “covid” disease in the US. CDC claims there were about 200 “cases” by that time, although nobody except CDC could have tested or verified anything. Immediately after Col Wendy started making stocks of it (whatever “it” was) at Ft. Detrick, the “pandemic” materialized in the US:
I previously wrote about the “quarantine” of the Grand Princess and Diamond Princess passengers in March 2020. The quarantine orders were FOIAed on my suggestion by Children’s Health Defense fellow Risa Evans. We received the 2nd tranche of the documents which contain the original medical opinion upon which people were put in quarantine at several Air Force bases, i.e. a military prison. Of course, the passengers were not told they are being imprisoned, they were lied to by the HHS/CDC representatives who scared them into compliance by the “you are asymptomatically ill/have been exposed to a deadly novel virus” story.
The full document of this FOIA production is available for paid subscribers (scroll to the end of this article, past the artwork).
The second production from HHS contained the documents I was originally looking for: the medical sign-off on the quarantine orders issued in March 2020. Please read and forward to your friends and family, so that when the “health” authorities try to pull this weaponized-science-vaporware on you, you can be prepared.
Let’s look at some key dates first.
Amy “Vaccine Cheerleader” Goodman’s Friday headlines on Democracy Now! Fucking hell, above.
The billionaire takeover of CBS continues: Sharyn Alfonsi, the 60 Minutes correspondent who reported critically on Trump’s torture prison in El Salvador, reportedly won’t have her contract renewed.
60 Minutes firing a critical reporter is what media capture looks like. CBS’s new MAGA boss pushed out one of America’s most respected investigative reporters for telling the truth. This is the new normal, and we need your help to fight back. Once CNN becomes part of the Ellison empire, MAGA billionaires will control roughly 78 percent of cable news.
Veteran journalist Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez has been digging through the DOJ’s Epstein files release. She surfaced a 2017 email exchange between Karnya Shuliak and an Indian dentist named Rajesh Kannan. Shuliak is described in the files as Epstein’s “last partner and main heiress.” Kannan, at one point, reportedly held the world’s largest private collection of extracted human teeth.
Yes, that’s a real thing.
The exchange is exactly what it sounds like. Kannan confirms payment received for “50 anteriors” — 50 front teeth — and instructs Shuliak on how to receive them. The teeth were to be glued to a piece of cardboard to look like artwork, in order to evade postal inspection. Shuliak helpfully responded with her shipping address and phone number.
Shuliak, who got into Columbia’s dental school after Epstein allegedly bribed two of its leaders with $600,000 when her initial application was rejected, had no legitimate dental need for 50 black-market human teeth.
Anterior teeth are among the highest-quality sources of human DNA; pulp protected by enamel preserves genetic material for decades. Forensic identification of remains relies on dental DNA precisely because teeth outlast almost every other biological material.
Smuggling human biological material into the United States this way is a federal offense, carrying up to two years in prison. Epstein changed his will two days before his death to leave most of his estate to Shuliak, a Belarusian national who reportedly got her U.S. citizenship through a fraudulent marriage Epstein arranged.
We don’t know what Shuliak was doing with 50 smuggled human teeth. Valdes-Rodriguez doesn’t know either. What we do know is the corporate press won’t touch it.
Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez for THE PUGILIST
May 08, 2026
In October 2017, a package arrived at a United States address containing fifty human anterior teeth — the front teeth, upper and lower — smuggled from Tamil Nadu, India, disguised as a decorative picture to evade postal inspection. The seller’s instructions were precise: remove all teeth from the cardboard, boil them for twenty minutes, and wipe clean.
The recipient was Karyna Shuliak, a Belarusian woman who gained her United States citizenship through a fraudulent marriage arranged by Jeffrey Epstein to Jennifer Kalin (an ex girlfriend of Elon Musk’s brother, Kimball). Shuliak attended Columbia University’s dental school, from which her application was initially rejected, only after Epstein bribed two of the school’s leaders with more than $600,000. Epstein changed his will two days before his death, to leave most of his estate to Shuliak.
The document confirming the tooth-smuggling transaction — EFTA00569515 — sits in the federal Epstein investigation files released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. It is a short email chain between Shuliak and a sender identified as “rajesh kannan,” operating under the vendor name “Bforbones.” The subject line reads: “Re: Bforbones.” The seller confirms payment received for fifty anteriors, Shuliak provides a US shipping address, and the seller then coaches Shuliak on sanitizing the smuggled teeth once they arrive.
Bforbones is based in Pudukkottai, Tamil Nadu — the same city where Dr. Rajesh Kannan, BDS MBA, holds the Asia Book of Records title for the world’s largest collection of extracted human teeth: 68,400 specimens, displayed publicly at the Hotel MA Grand in Pudukkottai, Tamil Nadu, on October 20, 2019 to claim the title.
According to the nonprofit Tooth Bank, which monitors the illegal trade in human biological specimens, India has been the primary source of black market teeth for decades, with dealers sourcing material through grave robbing, theft, and exploitation of the poorest communities.
Exporting human teeth from India has been outlawed for decades. In 1985, the Supreme Court of India banned the export of human bones and other tissues under India’s National Import/Export Control Act, prompted by government fears of grave robbing and murder.
The subsequent practice of disguising such shipments as artwork to evade postal inspection is a documented tactic of illegal specimen traders — identified by name in Tooth Bank reporting as the exact method used by Bforbones.
THE HEIR
When Jeffrey Epstein signed his will on August 8, 2019 — two days before his death — he left Karyna Shuliak almost everything. The Zorro Ranch in New Mexico. His townhouse in New York. Properties on Little and Great Saint James islands. An apartment in central Paris. Fifty million dollars. A near-33-carat diamond ring, given “in contemplation of marriage.” A collection of 48 loose diamonds.
Shuliak, now 36 years old, was the last person Epstein spoke to before his death — reaching her by phone from prison by telling guards he was calling his mother. His mother had been dead for fifteen years.
Shuliak was, by the time of Epstein’s death, a licensed dentist in the State of New Mexico (EFTA01207629), certified by the New Mexico Board of Dental Health Care. New Mexico is the jurisdiction of Zorro Ranch — the 7,600-acre property in Stanley where Epstein built a military/industrial grade bidirectional microwave radio communications infrastructure documented in prior Pugilist reporting, including FCC microwave licenses in the name of Zorro Trust that have been maintained as active by the new owners, Mary Catherine and Donald Huffines.
Shuliak was a frequent visitor to Zorro Ranch, which, like Epstein’s other properties, was described by survivors of Epstein’s large-scale child sex-trafficking ring as having been equipped with dentistry equipment.
On August 7, 2015 — during Epstein’s documented stay at Zorro Ranch from July 31 through August 22 — Shuliak transmitted two sequential photographs to Epstein with no accompanying text (EFTA01207031). The images, file-named DSC00142.jpeg and DSC00143.jpeg, were taken at the old west film set on San Cristobal Ranch, the Singleton family property immediately adjacent to Zorro Ranch. (San Cristobal Ranch is the property whose manager, “Vito,” was in direct documented communications with Epstein’s ranch manager Brice Gordon in 2016 about establishing shared microwave communications infrastructure — a thread THE PUGILIST has reported in depth.) Shuliak was on that land. She photographed herself there and sent the images directly to Epstein.
The question nobody has adequately answered is what her dental credentials had to do with any of it. Shuliak has never been subpoenaed by congress. She could still be called to testify before the New Mexico Epstein Survivor’s Truth Commission. Let’s see if they rise to the occasion.
THE OPERATORIES
Among the most disquieting findings in the Epstein files is the documented existence of fully equipped dental operatories — complete treatment rooms — installed at two of Epstein’s private properties: his mansion in Palm Beach, Florida, and his private island, Little Saint James in the US Virgin Islands. Photographs of the Little Saint James operatory were released by the House Oversight Committee. The Palm Beach operatory was positioned adjacent to the main bathroom. There are no photos of the Zorro Ranch operatory because no one ever searched the property when it was still in the possession of Epstein’s estate. It was only searched in March of 2026, seven years after Epstein’s death and three years after it came under new ownership.
Dental operatories in private residences, operated outside any licensed clinical setting, leave no patient records. Procedures performed in them — extractions, implants, sedation — would generate no documentation in any medical system. The patients, if there were patients, would be entirely off the books.
The publicly-available Epstein files contain the word “teeth” 2,076 times and “dental” 2,646 times. “Dentist” appears 1,834 times. These frequencies have been noted by researchers without adequate explanation.
THE BLACK MARKET AND THE BODY TRADE
So what was Shuliak doing with all those (very expensive) smuggled human teeth? We do not know. But experts I spoke to agree: No legitimate dental procedure uses extracted human teeth.
What we do know is this: Anterior teeth, the kind Shuliak smuggled into the United States from India, are among the highest-quality sources of human DNA. The pulp, protected by enamel, preserves genetic material with exceptional reliability long after death.
Forensic identification of human remains relies heavily on dental DNA precisely because teeth outlast virtually every other biological material. A licensed dentist with access to human teeth sourced outside regulated channels — obtained from a black market supplier who coaches buyers on evading postal inspection — possesses a capability that extends well beyond dental practice.
The federal Epstein investigation files document at least three crimes likely committed by Karyna Shuliak on American soil. She transmitted a link to child sexual abuse material to Jeffrey Epstein via email on February 4, 2013 (EFTA02023481) — a federal offense under 18 USC 2252, carrying a mandatory minimum of five years and a maximum of twenty years imprisonment for distribution. She smuggled human biological specimens into the United States through deliberate customs misrepresentation, a federal offense under 18 USC 542, carrying up to two years imprisonment. And federal records show she entered into a fraudulent marriage to obtain United States citizenship — a federal offense under 8 USC 1325(c), carrying up to five years imprisonment and a $250,000 fine — divorcing as soon as citizenship was secured. She declined to cooperate with federal prosecutors following Epstein’s death, citing concerns about her own legal exposure. She continues to live freely in the United States. As of November 2025, she holds an active New York dental license.
She has yet to be subpoenaed or questioned by anyone.
What say you, New Mexico Truth Commission?
What say you, Raul Torrez?
Are you going to question Shuliak, or are you, like everyone else who has failed Epstein’s survivors, going to look the other way because she’s rich and well-connected?
I’ll give her due, but again, more fucking BLOCKING by these fucking Substackers, hers a month ago, because I dared connect Epstein to Jewishness and DNA and Global Domination to Jewishness and the Chosenness of the Jews, I connect to their demonic nature. You can access her site if you don’t say Jews are Zionists and Zionists are Jews, or that ALL Jews are Israeli, that is, the right to return to their stolen land!
Who is Eligible?
- Jews: Anyone born to a Jewish mother or who has converted to Judaism and is not a member of another religion.
- Children/Grandchildren: The 1970 amendment extended this right to children and grandchildren of Jews, along with their spouses.
- Converts: The law applies to those who have converted through various Jewish movements (Orthodox, Reform, Conservative).
[A Palestinian refugee, Saleh Saleh Abu Rass, holds up a key from his original home in Be’er Sheva, located in southern Israel, during a rally, in Rafah refugee camp, southern Gaza Strip, May 12, 2013]
Well, caveats abound in Judaism:
Right of Aliyah
1. Every Jew has the right to come to this country as an oleh**.
Oleh’s visa
2. (a) Aliyah shall be by oleh’s visa.
(b) An oleh’s visa shall be granted to every Jew who has expressed his desire to settle in Israel, unless the Minister of Immigration is satisfied that the applicant
(1) is engaged in an activity directed against the Jewish people; or
(2) is likely to endanger public health or the security of the State.
Jewish Israelis were asked the following question: “In 1948, during the War of Independence, the majority of Palestinians who lived in the country were turned into refugees and have since been spread across the world. The right of return of the Palestinian refugees refers to the possibility of every Palestinian refugee (and his/her descendants) to decide between actual return to the place where they lived until 1948, and other forms of compensation. The significance of the recognition of the right of return may be that more than seven million Palestinian refugees will choose to return to Israel. To what extent do you support or oppose the right of return as presented?”
Are Israeli Jews beginning to accept the right of return?
That is, 2018. Now the full-fledged rapists and perversions to humanity want all Palestinians DEAD: According to the survey, nearly twice as many women support the right of return than man (17.2 percent as opposed to nine). An especially optimistic figure can be found when breaking down the responses by age: Israelis between the ages of 18 and 34 support the right of return at a particularly high rate (25.9 percent), compared to adults over the age of 55 (15.1 percent) and those between 35-54 (7.3 percent). Meanwhile, Israelis who earn an average income are twice as likely to support the right of return than those who earn an above-average income (21.9 percent as opposed 12.7 percent).
[Palestinian citizens of Israel pass photos of Palestinian refugees during the anuual ‘March of Return’ to Lubya, a Palestinian village destroyed in 1948.]
May ALL Jews who support Israel even in theory or concept, well, be met with a noose and Molotov!
And, the winner goes to Cuba:
Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla firmly stated that Cuba will exercise its right to legitimate Cuba sovereignty defense until the last consequences, backed by the massive support of its people. His remarks came during an interview with ABC News amid growing US pressure.
The top diplomat denounced the multidimensional US aggression, which includes extraterritorial sanctions, an energy blockade, and recent military threats. He warned that Washington has chosen a “dangerous path” that could lead to unimaginable consequences, including a humanitarian catastrophe or bloodshed.
Rodríguez emphasized that Cuba poses no threat to US national security, foreign policy, economy, or way of life. He rejected any justification for intervention, stressing that internal political matters of Cuba are not subject to negotiation.
Cuba sovereignty defense: Rejection of New Trump Executive Order
The minister strongly criticized the Executive Order signed by President Donald Trump on May 1, which imposes coercive unilateral sanctions on strategic Cuban sectors such as energy, mining, and defense. He described these measures, along with secondary sanctions on third countries and companies, as serious violations of international law.
These actions constitute collective punishment against the Cuban people and represent an extraterritorial extension of US policy. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced new designations targeting Cuban entities shortly after the order.
Rodríguez responded directly to Trump’s statements suggesting possible military action against Cuba, including references to deploying the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier. He warned of potential loss of Cuban and American lives.
And I always thought Jews in Jew York City and big cities, USA, were once pro-union. Not in IsrArLentina:
Federal judge Macarena Marra Giménez, head of the 12th Federal Administrative Contentious Court, annulled the injunction that had blocked the application of more than 80 articles of the government’s labor overhaul. The ruling follows a petition filed by the CGT.
The decision enables the executive branch to proceed with changes affecting severance payments, overtime rules, working hours, and the transfer of labor jurisdiction to the City of Buenos Aires. The reform is officially referred to by the government as «Modernización Laboral».
As part of these large-scale economic changes, his government has removed tens of thousands of civil service jobs and made drastic cuts to social spending and public works.
In 2024, Milei’s policies saw Argentina gain its first annual surplus in 14 years, and in June, Argentina’s monthly inflation rate fell below 2 percent for the first time since 2020.
However, the president’s measures have been blamed for tipping millions of people into poverty in the first half of last year.
Unemployment has also grown, and prices are up 40 percent year-on-year, conditions which have led people to protest.
[Argentina’s Jewish community is not only the biggest in Latin America but also the largest Spanish-speaking Jewish community in the world.
In the late ‘50s and early ‘60s, the community swelled to an estimated 450,000]
Researchers say pensioners, who have been at the centre of weekly demonstrations, are the hardest-hit group.
Despite the public protests, polls show that Milei’s party holds a sizeable lead ahead of October’s mid-term elections, which will be seen as a referendum on his first two years in office.
In Argentina, since President Javier Milei came to power, Tel Aviv’s influence in the country has increased notably. The Argentine leadership views Israel as a priority and strategic ally.
Fucking Jews working Latin America, Southern Tip all the way up to Juarez, Mexico.
It is worth noting that Argentina is currently the largest state of the Global South not only with a pro-Israeli, but also an obvious pro-Zionist position in its foreign policy.
The positions of Israel and pro-Israeli elements in Argentina continue to strengthen gradually
Buenos Aires’ recent votes on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in the UN General Assembly are evidence of this. In 2024, Argentina rejected resolutions on the admission of Palestine to the United Nations as a full member state, on the illegal presence of Israel in the occupied Palestinian territories and on the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination. In addition, Milei’s government expressed ‘deep disagreement’ with the decision of the International Criminal Court to issue an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defence minister, Yoav Gallant, for committing war crimes in the Gaza Strip.
Ahh, so, the tenty something co-worker, an artist, tons of volunteer work at the Hatefield Marine Sciences Center, lives in her big 1968 diesel panel van, with dog, and she is majoring in Marine Sciences and alas, working for the $18 an hour laundry slough, and she just lost her financial aid and her SNAP benefits.
Key changes under the 2025–2026 policies:
- Stricter Work Requirements: Expanded requirements to able-bodied adults up to age 64 (previously 54), including parents with children 14–17, veterans, and those experiencing homelessness.
- Declining Enrollment: Data shows a drop of ~4.2 million beneficiaries between Jan 2025 and Jan 2026, with participation falling from ~43 million to under 39 million.
- Broad-Based Categorical Eligibility (BBCE): While 130% of the federal poverty line remains a standard benchmark, new rules have reduced the ability of states to use BBCE to lift this threshold and increase access, resulting in smaller benefits for many households.
- Benefit Cuts & Inflation: With high food prices, the cuts are projected to increase food insecurity, with over 2 million people projected to lose benefits entirely due to tighter work requirements
According to an analysis of USDA data by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP), the program helped over 757,000 Oregon residents buy food in 2024, which is about one in six Oregonians.
Based on CBPP analysis of other states, Oregon ranks third in the percentage of the state’s population that relies on the food assistance program, behind New Mexico and Louisiana.
Experts say the number of Oregonians who utilize SNAP reflects both the economic realities and deliberate policy choices that made Oregon a national leader in fighting hunger.
The state’s economy relies heavily on service, retail, and tourism jobs. Many of those positions pay near minimum wage or are sometimes seasonal.
“We have both a high unemployment rate as well as a high fraction of workers who are engaged in seasonal work,” said Dr. Michael Kuhn, an economics professor at the University of Oregon. “The confluence of those two factors really means that we’re going to have a lot of SNAP-eligible individuals in Oregon.”
Ain’t no fucking Jews on SNAP, but Jews are certainly in the White Man’s House determining which fucking Minyan gets to fuck over more Goyim:
For 2026, the federal poverty level (FPL)—or federal poverty guidelines—is $33,000 annually for a family of four in the contiguous U.S. ($15,960 for an individual).
Considerable research has been conducted on better methods to measure income poverty. In the early 1990s, Congress asked the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) to investigate alternative measures. The NAS panel of experts issued a report in 1995 that recommended revising the poverty level and the method of determining which families are poor.3 The panel’s recommendations included the following:
▶ Create new poverty thresholds that more accurately reflect the cost of food, clothing, and shelter
▶ Adjust thresholds by region to account for variation in the cost of living.
▶ When counting families’ resources to determine whether they fall below the poverty line: – use families’ post-tax income; – include earned income tax credits and the value of near-cash benefits (such as food stamps and housing assistance); and – subtract the cost of work-related expenses (such as child care and transportation) and medical care
If the NAS recommendations were adopted, millions more people would be considered officially poor. But even these recommendations underestimate the cost of family expenses and thus produce poverty thresholds well below what it takes to make ends meet, for example, increasing the poverty level for a family of four by only about $3,000 annually.

ANZAC Day, War, Review of X Rubicon: “You were just babies!”

May 5th, 2026 — Jim Kable.
Just a few days ago I was seated in a cinema here in south-east Australia watching the trailers and advertisements before the main feature and there it was again – the slick advertising enticing young people to join the military. For a career with hi-tech engagement, assuming responsibility with educational opportunities, challenges, adventures, growth and companionship – a squad of young people, young men and women, jogging along a beach together and later throwing themselves as a group into a flat late afternoon surf. At the same time as this vision of exciting and joyous bonhomie is being presented – a mix of other military realities flash through my mind – misogyny and sexual assaults, bullying, commissions of enquiry into criminal behaviour – levelled at one, especially, of the most highly decorated of our special forces during engagement in Afghanistan – defended by oligarchs and right-wing politicians. And above all – a generally unsympathetic Department of Veteran Affairs seemingly purposed to wriggle out of their duty of care to returned services people – PTSD, Moral Injury, and suicides.
Oh, and then there is our recently celebrated ANZAC Day commemoration. (Australia and New Zealand Army Corps – formed during the early days of The Great War (aka World War I – 1914-1918) on April 25th – which marks the ill-fated storming of the Gallipoli peninsula from the western outer Aegean side of the Gallipoli Peninsula of the Dardanelles. It is remembered slightly differently in both Aotearoa/NZ and Australia – though what is usually omitted is any reference to the other allied forces also streaming ashore further down (the Helles front) – British (including Indian and Gurkha brigades), French, and Canadian (Newfoundland). That is usually the way – focus on one’s own or oneself. And what was essentially a debacle planned by Winston Churchill – the peninsula saved from being overrun by the brilliant leadership of Kemal Ataturk – there are some key moments long remembered – John Simpson Kirkpatrick with his donkey rescuing the wounded for several weeks till his own death; A ceasefire on May 24th on both sides to take and bury their dead – scenes similar to the first Christmas on the Western Front in Europe – and finally a withdrawal effected almost without death.
While ANZAC legend highlights the bravery of soldiers, modern analysis emphasizes poor planning, faulty leadership, and immense, unnecessary losses (approximately 44,000 Allied and over 86,000 Ottoman deaths) for a campaign that achieved zero strategic goals.
As a Turk, I can say this. Many of us lost a great deal in the Battle of Canakkale, which was a tragedy that should never have happened. My grandfather’s father also sacrificed his life for his country in that war. This is more of an honor and a source of pride for us than a loss. The relatives of soldiers coming from other countries were forced to experience the same pain and loss. I hope that the fact that global powers arranged and chose our children as victims has taught a lesson to all people living today. War only kills and takes humanity backwards. Why can we humans be so savage when we can share the beauties of the world in peace and prosperity? Live in friendship and happiness, otherwise the tears of mothers will never dry up. Let us all hold hands for world peace and build a happy world. As Mustafa Kemal ATATÜRK said, let each of us make the principle of “Peace at home, peace in the world” a principle in our hearts. Let wars and tears end now…
Awesome documentary. As a Kiwi I feel so many different emotions watching this . Despite its graphic nature, i think this documentary should be part of the Secondary School syllabus, for all NZ/Australians & maybe others . My best mate and I were lucky enough to have meet some of the ‘old diggers’ at Gallipoli (Çanakkale) on Anzac Day , back in the early 90’s. Things were less regimented back then, so we arrived the day before the ceremony , wandered around the hills on our own all day, then someone lite a fire on the beach that night, (which a group of us gathered around) . We made a toast to the fallen (both sides) and listened to a young Australian Historian tell us stories about the campaign. We then slept the night under the stars, just as these guys would have many decades before. Even in summer & in a modern sleeping bag, it was a cold night.
My mother still hated Churchill right up to her death decades later. She refused watch TV news coverage of his funeral. That War Monger she used to say often when hearing his name. Our neighbour on the farm next door in New Zealand could not stand the smell of even a decaying dead rabbit as it took him right back to his days in this battle.. we were careful to find and bury any animal before it could decay as he would become visibly upset if he smelt it … even 50 years later.
