Heidi Lambert was voted in to Waldport, Oregon’s volunteer mayorship but was fired and then had to file state ethics complaint and now those fifth graders are running a recall petition.

Listen to the Interview here by clicking this LINK.

Not surprisingly, the recall is full of bullshit and lies, but one doozy is:

….In the last nine months, she has abused staff, gone on a radio show which attacked law enforcement and veterans, sued the city, filed ethics complaints against a meeting that she ran, and finally, not only called the sheriff’s office and Oregon Department of Environmental Quality on the city …

Shit dawg, my radio show, where in a brief sound bite, for a 60 minute venue, I disagreed lightly with Heidi about being respectful of men and women in blue and in camo. We did not talk about community policing, or policing watchdogs, or citizen oversight, or de-militarizing the cops, or forcing police to have trained crisis experts on the calls, and so much more.

I can ACAB or call for defunding the police any fucking time. It had nothing to do with my guests or guests who may come onto the show, but leave it to the recall swindler to mention that. THAT.

Key Books on the “Defund the Police” Movement

• Defund: Black Lives, Policing, and Safety for All by Sandy Hudson (2025): Examines the origins of police, argues that current safety models are based on sensationalism rather than data, and advocates for investing in community infrastructure.
• Defund the Police: An International Insurrection by Chris Cunneen et al. (2023): Provides a comprehensive overview of police divestment, using international case studies to explore alternatives to criminalization and imprisonment.
• Becoming Abolitionists: Essays on Police, Resistance, and the Future by Derecka Purnell (2021): A mix of memoir and analysis arguing that police cannot be reformed to eliminate racism and that resources should be shifted to social services.
• No More Police: A Case for Abolition by Mariame Kaba and Andrea Ritchie (2022): Offers a foundational argument for the complete abolition of policing.
• Defund the Police: 12 Questions and Answers by Peter Temes (2020): Explores the debate, arguing that while deep reform is necessary, total defunding may cause more harm than good, focusing on transitioning from a “warrior” to “guardian” model.
• Defund Fear: Safety Without Policing, Prisons, and Punishment by Zach Norris (2021): Focuses on creating a culture of care and community investment to produce genuine safety.

A New York City college professor who wrote about ending policing, was appointed by mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani to work on community safety issues.

“I’m excited to announce that I have been asked to join the Mamdani Transition Team to work on community safety issues,” Alex Vitale wrote on the social media platform, X.

“A New Era for NYC.”

But we also talked about her first amendment rights to be on my who and other shows, and how the City Manager and the five council members have attacked her while she was on medical leave in an open city council meeting.

It seems like every city has a city manager who holds the real power and voters don’t get to decide on that person. What’s the point of having a mayor if you have a city manager anyway?

 The council-manager form gives too much power to one person – the city manager

 A professional manager, often chosen from outside the city, does not know the community and is too far from the voters

 Councils may leave too much decision. making to the manager, who is not directly accountable to the public

 Without an elected chief executive, the community lacks political leadership

 The council-manager form is too much like a business corporation which is not suitable for managing community needs

 City managers cost too much, local people could handle the job for less cost

 Citizens may be confused about who is in charge. Most expect the mayor to respond to their problems. The mayor has no direct control over the delivery of services and can only change policy through the city council

 City managers may leave a city when offered higher salaries and greater responsibilities in other cities

Here’s the Portland KOIN-TV news’ take a year ago:

After consulting their attorney in a closed executive session, Waldport City Council passed a resolution on Tuesday, reinstating Mayor Heide Lambert after she was expelled amid complaints she created a hostile work environment.

The resolution comes after Mayor Lambert challenged the decision, leading Lincoln County Circuit Court Judge Sheryl Bachart to order the mayor’s reinstatement.

The mayor’s removal and reinstatement stems from letters sent by two City of Waldport employees on March 27, alerting City Council of “unacceptable and aggressive behavior” from the mayor two days earlier when the mayor visited City Hall to get her mail.

“Mayor Lambert was clutching a small stack of envelopes, demanding to know why the letters had not been scanned to her and council,” one employee wrote. “I greeted Mayor Lambert, asking how I might help. She, obviously frustrated and with an accusatory tone, commanded to know why the letter scans had not been sent to her, as they were addressed to her. I let her know that the letters had, in fact, been scanned and sent to (City Manager Dann Cutter) and that their delivery would come from either Dann or (another City Hall staffer). As that is their role.”

“She continued, in a confrontational manner, by insisting the letters be scanned to her and stated that ‘all these letters are complaints against Dann,’ as she clasped the letters, shaking them at us in emphasis. How she could possibly be aware of the contents of the letters without having read them is beyond me,” the letter continued.

“During a pause in her relentless onslaught, I let Mayor Lambert know that since none of our answers would satisfy her, we should end this conversation, and she should speak with Dann. She, of course, had the last word saying, ‘I won’t be speaking with Dann. I will be speaking with legal counsel,’” the letter claimed.

“I’m not easily intimidated,” the letter continues, “but Mayor Lambert’s behavior was not only out of line but was also in violation of city charter.”

In response to the complaints, the mayor sent a letter to City Council, explaining,

“I have read both letters and feel concerned that my statements and demeanor, though
misinterpreted, might have contributed to feelings of unease, and I apologize for not
realizing this at the time. While I want to be accountable for anything I may have said or done that caused either of these employees to feel ‘uncomfortable’ or ‘Intimidated,’ I am baffled by the allegations and do not believe I was ‘aggressive.’ Nor do I think I violated the city charter.”

Lambert explained that a community member had previously approached her at a supermarket and informed her that he submitted a complaint about Cutter. Before the City Hall incident, the mayor said she was advised to speak to CityCounty Insurance Services — claiming she was advised by “CIS Attorney Ross (Davis)” to pick up her mail and ask the county clerk to scan the letters and send them to council and the city attorney.

However, Davis claimed, “I have read Ms. Lambert’s 4/1 email. First, I am not an attorney and never claimed to be. Second, I did not advise her in anyway as she describes. She brought up the complaint and I advised to follow whatever City protocols there are for complaints against any employee by a citizen.”

In a unanimous vote on April 3, City Council expelled the mayor, citing a violation of the city charter, which states no member of the council shall directly or indirectly attempt to direct a city officer or employee in the performance of their duties.

One week later, the then-former mayor appeared at an April 10 City Council meeting where she was asked several times by council members to leave, but officials said she refused and hindered the meeting.

Members from the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office attempted to remove Lambert peacefully, explaining the legal consequences. Officials said she continued to refuse.

Eventually, Lambert was escorted outside and cited for disorderly conduct before being released, where she was able to return to the meeting and sit in the public seating area. In a memo, Lincoln County District Attorney Jenna Wallace later announced she would not be pursuing charges against Lambert.

“We have never had an elected city official treat staff this way. What may seem like a minor incident is actually a serious legal concern,” Waldport City Council previously said. “Hostile work environment complaints lead to staff leaving positions, to costly lawsuits against the city, and to a near stop in city operations. In January, each of us, including Mayor Lambert, swore to uphold the Waldport City Charter and the Oregon and United States Constitutions. We take that pledge seriously.”

Lambert previously said this is a complicated situation, because community members had written formal complaints to her about the city manager that were labeled confidential.

“I went in to pick it up, and it had already been opened, and it had already been sent to the person that the complaints were about. And that was where I was confused,” she said. “So, I asked the city clerk to email the council those complaints, and I was told that was not what they were directed to do.”

Lambert hired a lawyer, previously telling KOIN 6 News that she had no interest in suing the city she was elected to lead but was prepared to take this issue to court if it’s not resolved.

“I’m fighting for my seat. I have to stick with my voters, and I have to keep running, keep fighting for my seat,” Lambert said. “I guess if it’s decided that I can be removed, then I’ll have to be reelected.”

‘Defeat for democracy’

In response to Mayor Lambert’s reinstatement, Waldport City Manager Dann Cutter raised concerns, telling KOIN 6 News this marks a “defeat for democracy.”

“The mayor is claiming this is a victory for democracy. Sadly, I think it’s the exact opposite. It showed that the threat of an expensive lawsuit can be used to silence elected officials from preventing abuse of power and corruption,” Cutter said.

The city manager then pointed to an ongoing lawsuit filed in 2023, which names Lambert. The lawsuit was filed by two staffers for the City of Yachats against the City — alleging they experienced discrimination and workplace harassment under several city managers, including Lambert, who was hired as the Yachats city manager in 2022. A spokesperson for the city told KOIN 6 News the city has no comment on the pending litigation.

“Two years ago, Ms. Lambert was named in a lawsuit with the city of Yachats, alleging discrimination and the creation of a hostile environment. Yachats is still fighting that lawsuit. Instead, the Waldport Council attempted to stand up for their staff when the same hostile environment was created here. Technicalities of the law were used to threaten the city with hundreds of thousands of taxpayers’ dollars to fight over what boils down to an unlawful direction of city staff by an elected official – the very definition of abuse of power. The Council absolutely acted in the city’s best interest then, and bravely, did the same last night – knowing that a small town cannot afford the fight, even when right. So, they put it back in the citizens hands to do the right thing,” Cutter furthered.

“The question is, will they? Will citizens stand up for the staff who work hard to build the city up? Or will they instead support a continuation of the behaviors for which their neighboring city is still paying. Because, after all is said and done, the Mayor never apologized to the employees,” Cutter said. “She claims she is supporting women’s rights – but they are women too who have been subject to harassment and ridicule for daring to stand up against those unlawful actions. Instead, the mayor wants to make this about the City Charter, attempting to hide behind technicalities of process.”

“So, no, this is a defeat for democracy and the protections against abuse by those in power – a theme we are seeing playing out nationally as well,” Cutter concluded.

+—+

Lambert has lived in Waldport for 17 years, is raising three children, and she and her husband set down roots here. All are members of the community. She walked into a hornet’s nest of small-minded folk, a clique that is all about cronism and two staff making a mountain out of a molehill. The City MANAGER has too much power, and he was once the Mayor of Waldport. These people have to move on, gotta go.

Lambert was voted in as the Mayor, two year term, and that ends Jan. 2027. The recall is insane, having to gather 200 signatures, and then put into a special ballot for voters to vote on. We are talking May or June. If she loses, then one of the councilmembers, another City Manager bootlicker, gets the role of leading the council.

I asked Lambert to read this statement she made which was published in something called the Free Press. Follow along by listening to the entire interview above.

Hanging on by a Thread of Hope

By Heide Lambert, Mayor of Waldport, Oregon

In a small coastal town of 2,000 people, you wouldn’t expect to see the forces tearing apart our democracy so clearly. And yet, Waldport, Oregon, has become a case study in how power, fear, and disinformation corrode civic life—at the local level and far beyond.

Since being elected to a two-year volunteer term as mayor, our town has made national news more than once. First, when the city manager and council unconstitutionally expelled me less than three months into my term. Then, when residents united to stop ICE from housing agents in a rundown hotel. Most recently, we mourned the loss of County Commissioner Claire Hall, whose body succumbed after enduring relentless bullying tied to a recall effort.

I write because the misdirected hate in my county mirrors a much larger crisis—and it has shaken my faith in the systems meant to protect us.

Since becoming an elected official, I have encountered hostility I never imagined would accompany public service. A smear campaign, driven by city leadership, made me question whether running for office was worth the cost. What I have learned is this: it doesn’t take a mob to undermine democracy. It takes a few people with power and no accountability.

As I watch national news of war initiated by the directive of a single man, I recognize the same pattern playing out locally and across the country. Corruption is no longer treated as a crime. Norms once considered foundational—truth, restraint, decency—are dismissed as inconveniences. This is not what freedom looks like, nor what our Constitution was written to allow.

Because I was not the mayor city staff and council wanted, my leadership has faced ongoing resistance. For over a year, they have refused to recognize my role and have used their authority to undermine my credibility, promoting narratives presented as truth regardless of fact.

The democracy I was raised to believe in depended on checks and balances, due process, and ethical leadership. Those values feel eroded. The worst behavior is no longer condemned—it is rewarded. We openly shame one another over politics, religion, race, gender, and sexuality, while the influence of money tightens its grip from the smallest towns to the highest offices.

I never expected this level of scrutiny for volunteering to serve my community. I ran to contribute years of experience managing complex projects with limited resources and collaborating across differences. I currently work with specialists in trauma and neurobiology, helping train justice system professionals across Oregon to recognize trauma so they do not cause further harm. The irony is painful: my civic role has placed me in a constant state of being targeted.

I use every coping skill I have ever taught to stay steady while city leadership uses my existence as a distraction from their own misconduct. Appeals for oversight have gone nowhere. Those with authority prefer the status quo—and in doing so, allow harm to continue.

I once believed my candidacy could show others that anyone could step into leadership. Now I am less certain. Fear of losing power and money has silenced residents and intimidated those who ask questions. We live in a media desert, without local journalism to verify facts, leaving social media distortions to fill the void.

Each month I wait for clarity, yet things continue to worsen. It feels like a witch hunt, as my brown, queer, and trans community lives in fear. The strain of never knowing if you are safe seeps into bodies, minds, and relationships. Sitting with loved ones in that space takes quiet strength.

I was elected not because I sought power, but because a majority of voters asked me to serve. Although a recall effort is underway, I refuse to let a small, disgruntled group dictate how I show up. I will continue to serve with integrity, transparency, and a commitment to the whole community.

Democracy does not collapse all at once. It erodes through silence, intimidation, and our willingness to accept what we know is wrong. We are being harmed together—and only together will we overcome it.

We are all hanging on by a thread of hope. And the more we keep showing up for one another, the stronger that thread becomes.

MAGA is infecting EVERYTHING, and the leeches and rabid racists and conservative retrogrades are coming out of the woodwork and out from under their rocks:

In “Chaos Comes Calling: The Battle Against the Far-Right Takeover of Small-Town America,” journalist Sasha Abramsky documents how two rural communities in the Pacific Northwest were overwhelmed by far-right radicals. It’s a sobering story, but also one that offers hope. Concerned citizens in Clallam County, Washington, beat back the MAGA menace, offering a model for others looking to protect their communities, whether their immediate town or the nation. Abramsky spoke with Salon about his work and why it matters for the future.

Lambert and I talked about a small town that needs roads fixed, better economic development, more mitigation around extreme flooding and king tides, better recruitment of businesses and business partners, and just bringing down the costs of flushing your toilet and turning on the lights.

Pragmatism used to define local politics: getting roads built, filling in potholes, making sure kids had safe spaces on the way to school. All of that local pragmatic politics got swamped by the sheer rage of the national discourse. But it goes the other way, too. The more local politics came to be defined by these increasingly angry battles, the more it played into a national narrative. A local story would be picked up by someone like Tucker Carlson, who would use it to whip up rage. Not just nationally, but because of social media, it would be picked up internationally.

This is just another single stupid example of how dead AmeriKKKa is:

The phone message from Bowdoin College security on September 14 caught Finley Rhys by surprise. He hadn’t expected the organizers of a Charlie Kirk vigil to be pleased with his flippant three-word email, but he hadn’t expected anyone to feel threatened by it, either.

“RIP to bro,” it read, followed by a sad-cat emoji.

Jackson Holl, a Bowdoin junior and one of three students who’d organized the planned vigil for the murdered conservative activist, was rattled by the response. He reported it to campus security and would later tell an officer that he interpreted the message “as a direct threat to my life, a deliberate and malicious attempt to intimidate and terrorize me for my beliefs.”

Euthanized? Shot by security detail? Hmm.

Killing Sitting Bull over and over and over again: The U.S. Department of the Interior has said it will revoke the grazing permits that have allowed American Prairie to run bison on roughly 63,000 acres of federal public land in Montana. This decision would affect seven parcels managed by the Bureau of Land Management in Phillips County, and it would hinder the organization’s larger goals of conserving large swaths of intact grasslands while restoring the native grazers to those landscapes.

The Interior’s rationale for yanking the permits, according to its Jan. 16 proposed decision, is that under the Taylor Grazing Act, the BLM can only issue grazing permits for livestock managed for “production-oriented” purposes. It claims that American Prairie’s emphasis on conservation runs counter to those purposes.

“A cold wind blew on the prairie on the day the last buffalo fell. A death wind for my people”

Conservatives who once railed against federal agents now applaud them

MAGA, RINO, Conservatives, Libertarians, and a whole lotta liberals — Nazis.

Since Ruby Ridge and Waco in the 1990s, a faction of right-wing populists had excoriated federal law enforcement. Now those agents are being deployed by their allies.

In case you haven’t been to Yosemite before, it’s virtually impossible to keep even the inside of a vehicle “free of dirt” while visiting the park. Harder still is keeping your home free of personal property while you’re living there.

According to the employee who spoke with SFGATE, workers at the park suspect that Aramark’s motives behind the new housing policy are a means of making it easier to replace longtime, permanent employees with temporary workers who are paid less and provided with less adequate, more crowded housing arrangements. In the new policy, third parties are granted permission to lease certain employee housing units from Aramark.

“They want temp employees, the ones that just come and go, that they can put in bunk housing with low pay,” the employee said. “They want people they can just cram in.”

Aramark has been heavily scrutinized since the company took over Yosemite’s concessions in 2015. In early 2020, the company faced a federal investigation after several visitors and employees were infected with norovirus at the park. A 2024 Bloomberg investigation found dangerous, run-down conditions at employee housing within Yosemite, including chemical spills, collapsed ceilings, bedbugs and a rodent infestation that caused one employee to contract hantavirus. Most recently, the company’s handling of the famous Ahwahnee Hotel came under fire after a report filed by the National Park Service cited rodent activity, improperly maintained facilities, food storage issues and a host of other problems at the iconic building.

As the U.S. military continues its campaign targeting alleged drug cartel boats, Gen. Dan Caine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is convening a rare meeting of all of the top military leaders from the 34 countries in the Western Hemisphere.

This will be the first time that such a meeting has been convened and appears to be focused on improving cooperation against drug trafficking and criminal organizations.

The meeting is set for Feb. 11, according to a statement from the Joint Chiefs of Staff provided to ABC News.

This is the face of separatism? U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent weighs in on Alberta separatism, calls province ‘natural partner’.

Mr. Bessent’s comments, made in a Thursday interview with American right-wing media personality Jack Posobiec, make him the highest-profile member of the Trump administration to weigh in on Alberta’s potential independence vote – and adds to the steady drumbeat of allies of U.S. President Donald Trump who appear to be watching the campaign.

A Minnesota federal magistrate judge refused to sign a complaint charging independent journalist Don Lemon in connection with a protest inside a church in St. Paul on Sunday, multiple sources familiar with the proceedings told CBS News.

“The attorney general is enraged at the magistrate’s decision,” said a source familiar with the matter. Attorney General Pam Bondi has been in Minnesota for two days, as the Justice Department has sought to surge prosecutorial and law enforcement resources there.

A different source stressed that the process is not over, and the Justice Department could find other avenues to charge Lemon.

We need a motherfucking football stadium worth’s of whistelblowers and leakers.

A federal grand jury in Maryland has indicted a Pentagon contractor whose alleged leaking of classified documents sparked an “outrageous” FBI raid on a Washington Post reporter’s home.

According to the justice department, Aurelio Luis Perez-Lugones illegally provided sensitive and secret information “related to national defense” to a reporter who it says then wrote and published at least five articles using it.

The indictment was not immediately available, and a press release announcing five charges against Perez-Lugones of mishandling classified information did not identify the journalist or their employer.

On 14 January, the FBI raided the Virginia home of the Post reporter Hannah Natanson in what the newspaper called a “highly unusual and aggressive” move, and seized items including two laptops, a hard drive and a recording device, her smart watch and a mobile phone.

In a subsequent development this week, a federal judge temporarily blocked prosecutors from reviewing material taken in the raid while the court reviews a request by the Post to return Natanson’s equipment.

Perez-Lugones, 61, of Laurel, Maryland, was arrested on 8 January and has remained in jail since. The navy veteran held a top secret security clearance as a systems engineer and information technology specialist for a defense department contractor.

Usha Vance, wife of US Vice President JD Vance, is from San Diego, California, where she was born and raised by her Indian immigrant parents who are academics in science and engineering. She attended Mt. Carmel High School in San Diego before pursuing degrees at Yale University and the University of Cambridge.

• Vice President JD Vance called back to his past comments about parenting while addressing his wife’s pregnancy at the 2026 March for Life rally
• At the previous year’s rally, JD made the case that he wants to see “more babies” in the United States
• One year later, on Friday, Jan. 23, he called attention to how second lady Usha Vance is now expecting their fourth child, bragging that he “practices what he preaches”

Krish and Lakshmi both work in higher education at universities in San Diego. Krish is a lecturer in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at San Diego State University. He has also been published in many technical papers and received numerous patents, per his SDSU bio.

Meanwhile, Lakshmi is a professor in the Department of Molecular Biology at UC San Diego as well as the coordinator of the Undergraduate Microbiology Teaching Laboratory, a role in which she designs “the microbiology teaching laboratory curriculum” and coordinates “Instructional Assistant training, and mentoring adjunct faculty.”

In 2018, she was also appointed as the provost of Sixth College. In a letter from Chancellor Pradeep K. Khosla, he called Lakshmi a “creative and dynamic educator” and said he was “delighted” to have her in the role.

“Professor Chilukuri has a demonstrated record of commitment to undergraduate education, equity, and diversity. She is one of the founding members of the pilot course in Race, Ethnicity, and Gender in Biology and Medicine, exploring the practice and philosophy of science from a multicultural perspective, the historical use and misuse of science in biomedical research and social policies, and issues of race and medicine in a post-genomic age,” he wrote.

As a professor, Lakshmi has also been involved in activism and was one of over 2,300 California professors who signed an open letter to Donald Trump urging him not to withdraw from the Paris accords on climate change, per The New York Times. As of the newspaper’s July 2024 story, Krish and Lakshmi were registered Democrats.

Vance Announces Expansion of ‘Mexico City Rule’ to Cover D.E.I. and ‘Radical’ Gender Policies The change, which could affect more than $30 billion in foreign assistance, is the Trump administration’s latest move against what the president calls “woke ideology.”

Hillbilly fucking Hindus.

At Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia, the Trump administration took down an exhibit on the contradiction between President George Washington’s ownership of enslaved people and the Declaration of Independence’s promise of liberty.

At Muir Woods National Monument in California, the administration dismantled a plaque about how the tallest trees on the planet could help store carbon dioxide and slow the Earth’s dangerous warming.

And at Lowell National Historical Park in Massachusetts, Trump officials ordered the National Park Service to stop showing films about the women and immigrants who once toiled in the city’s textile mills.

Across the country, Park Service workers have started taking down plaques, films and other materials in connection with a directive from President Trump to remove or rewrite content that may “disparage Americans” or promote “corrosive ideology.”

In the not-too-distant future, every movie and TV show will be about the Trump administration. Or maybe it just feels that way: On Saturday, HBO premieres Fahrenheit 451, the latest adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s visionary 1953 novel about a dystopian society where books have been outlawed and artistic expression squashed. But the movie, which stars Michael B. Jordan as “fireman” Guy Montag and Michael Shannon as his commanding officer in a brigade that burns books, is also very much meant to speak to The Way Things Are Now, portraying a frightening America where the country’s history has been rewritten to serve the government’s agenda and the populace is subservient to social media and technology.

Pedophiles REJOICE. For months, the 2025 news cycle was dominated by the disgraced financier and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Public outrage over the continued secrecy surrounding Epstein investigative files – which Donald Trump failed to release fully early in his second term, despite campaign promises – was growing.

Federal lawmakers took matters into their own hands: they issued a spate of subpoenas related to the late child sex trafficker, releasing batches of files that renewed attention to his connections to high-profile individuals on both sides of the political spectrum. Congress ultimately passed legislation mandating that the Department of Justice release these files by 19 December, with Trump signing this bill into law.

But that deadline came and went, with Trump’s justice department making a mere fraction of the total disclosures required by the Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA). These scant releases have so far failed to lift the veil on how Epstein operated with impunity for years.

Fiorella Isabel and I are back to assess the events, or some of them, that have accelerated in 2026. The Trump Technate is being ushered in at breakneck speed.

Venezuelan President Maduro kidnapped, US military build-up for war against Iran, CENTCOM in Israel today 24th January which usually heralds Zionist aggression.

ISIS transferred, with the help of Jolani’s Takfiri militia, to Iraq to combat the Iraqi anti-Imperialist/Zionist forces.

Aggression and economic pressure on the Lebanese Resistance has also escalated in the last week, again signalling a regional uptick in the Zionist attempt to eradicate resistance against their demonic project to secure resources, territory and supremacy.

Russia and China seem to be interested observers only – their western acolytes are pushing fake news like the landing of multiple Chinese planes in Tehran but Iranian analysts have dismissed these reports as disinformation.

Last spiel, I promise: I went down a rabbit hole, and lo and behold! Jews, man, everywhere in the Jew Yorker! Got this shit in my email, again, always a Jew telling the world what’s up. Tucker? Ahh, a Jew has to write the biography?

A staff writer covering politics.

In April, 2023, I was deep in the weeds of writing a book about Tucker Carlson when he was abruptly fired by Fox News. I’m not sure which one of us was more shocked—and, if I’m being honest with myself, dismayed—by this development.

At the time, Carlson was the network’s most popular prime-time host and had achieved a level of cultural ubiquity that made him the most powerful person in conservative media. After his firing, many savvy press critics predicted that Carlson would suffer the same fate as previous Fox stars who had lost the news channel’s powerful megaphone: irrelevance. (To wit, when was the last time you thought about Bill O’Reilly, much less wanted to read a book about him?) But Carlson has staved off oblivion. Indeed, in the nearly three years since he left Fox, he has not only reëstablished himself as the most significant media voice on the American right; Carlson has become, in some ways, more influential than he was at the height of his Fox tenure.

In this week’s issue, I examine how Carlson has managed to stay in the picture. Now deprived of Fox’s built-in audience, he’s grown his own for his video podcast by mastering the attention economy. He regularly generates outrage (and eyeballs) by hosting the likes of Vladimir Putin, Alex Jones, Andrew Tate, and, most recently, Nick Fuentes on his show. And he routinely crosses lines that his boundary-pushing Fox show was careful to avoid—particularly lines related to the United States’ relationship with Israel, which he criticizes in the most inflammatory and sometimes antisemitic terms. Just as crucially, he’s embraced Donald Trump in a way that he refused to do during Trump’s first Presidency. Back then, Carlson was perhaps the only Fox host who maintained a wary personal and professional distance from the President. Today, he luxuriates in his proximity to power. This month Carlson has had lunch with Trump on consecutive Fridays. Carlson’s business partner posted pictures of Carlson in the Oval Office on social media.

The rabbit hole . . . . Twenty fucking YEARS ago, these fucking Jewish neuroperverse fucks, man.

Of Death Threats and ‘Death Threats’. When I told Zengerle that while I found the letter to be “both insane and obscene,” I couldn’t find anything threatening in its contents, he found my conclusions disturbing.

By Eric Alterman, Contributor

I don’t know about you, but when I see the words “death threat” in my daily newspaper, I expect to read about an actual threat of death to someone somewhere. [Wikipedia agrees: “death threat is a threat (often made anonymously) against a person to kill him or her.” Here.] I got a threat once from an angry reader on the phone and I called the police and that was not even regarding my impending “death”; just a broken leg or two.

For reasons I cannot fully explain, I became briefly obsessed on Friday afternoon with the Boston Globe’s report of “death threats” against The New Republic’s Jason Zengerle by members of the Kos community who did not like his reporting on Jerome Armstrong and Moulitsas Zúniga. The article, which was written by Globe intern, Michael M. Grynbaum, here, struck me as playing to all the clichés the mainstream media offers about the liberal blogosphere, but nowhere more than in the reporting of alleged “death threats” against Zengerle, which when I read it, I knew simply could not be true. (Why the article made no mention of what struck me as a central fact of the drama–Zengerle’s employment of an accusatory e-mail that turned out to be a forgery–also piqued my curiosity/annoyance, but remains another story.)

Anyway, on Friday afternoon, I made a few calls and reached both Globe Washington bureau chief Peter Canellos and Jason Zengerle. (I could not reach the article’s author, Grynbaum, who was not in the office, and does not have voicemail on the system.) I spoke to Zengerle first and asked him to describe the threat. He read to me the contents of an e-mail that, in rather graphic, sick and disgusting terms–relating to concentration camps–explained to him that the writer wished he would one day die a similar death. It was clearly the product of a sick mind and no doubt disturbing to receive, but nothing in it could conceivably be labeled a “threat” of any kind. When I told Zengerle that while I found the letter to be “both insane and obscene,” I couldn’t find anything threatening in its contents, he found my conclusions disturbing. First he sent me an e-mail in which he said, “If you write about this, I expect you will print the attached e-mail in its entirety (with edits for the two instances of profanity in the last paragraph, if necessary) so that you can then explain to your readers how this note –which I received because Moulitsas put my personal e-mail address on his website at the end of a long screed attacking me and the magazine I work for– is not, in your definition of the term, a death threat.”

When I told him that I would characterize the note as best as I could but that for reasons of taste and space I could not imagine that my editors at MSNBC.com would want to print it, he sent me a second e-mail in which he insisted, “The fact that we’re even discussing whether it constitutes a “death threat” is insane and obscene.” He then went on to explain the fact that he had received hundreds of e-mails as a result of the fact that “Moulitsas printed my personal e-mail address on his website, and “a handful wishing me death and/or some sort of bodily harm. I deleted virtually all of them, but I did hang on to the one I forwarded to you, because I found it particularly unsettling. I assumed you would feel the same way. Look, if a note from an anonymous e-mailer wishing for me, a Jew, to be put in a concentration camp and then tortured by Nazi guards until I choke on human feces is not, in your mind, a death threat, well, that’s your opinion. But that’s not an opinion I share. It’s not as if this e-mailer was hoping that people defecate in my mouth as part of a fraternity prank. He was hoping for this to happen to me in Auschwitz! Do you think the Nazi guards, in the e-mailer’s scenario, ultimately perform the Heimlich on the choking Kapo and save his life? I don’t. If you want to have a debate about all this–in which you basically soft-pedal or in some sense defend this e-mail–then we can have it. But I’d really rather not. Therefore, I’d really rather you not write about this on your blog. To try to turn this difference of opinion into a “gotcha” item strikes me as unfair and unworthy of you.”

Now I’ve never spoken to Zengerle before and know nothing about him. And I’ve not waded too deeply into the waters of TNR’s fight with Kos and company. So I’m staying clear of those issues. But this is not a matter of “gotcha” journalism, nor for God’s sake an attempt by me to “soft-pedal or in some sense defend this e-mail” which after all, I characterized to Zengerle as “both insane and obscene.” It’s a matter of the meaning of words. I once heard Susan Sontag and Nadine Gordimer describe the purpose of intellectuals is to defend the language. I agree. There was no “death threat” here; just the kind of e-mails that are the price of putting strong opinions on the Internet--something that happens with unhappy frequency here at Altercation, and the main reason I pay somebody to screen them for me.

“Behold, the Spring has come; the earth has received the embraces of the sun and we shall soon see the results of that love!

Every seed is awakened and so has all animal life. It is through this mysterious power that we too have our being, and we therefore yield to our neighbors, even our animal neighbors, the same right as ourselves, to inhabit this land.

Yet, hear me, people, we have now to deal with another race – small and feeble when our fathers first met them but now great and overbearing. Strangely enough they have a mind to till the soil and the love of possession is a disease with them. These people have made many rules that the rich may break but the poor may not. They take their tithes from the poor and weak to support the rich and those who rule.

They claim this mother of ours, the earth, for their own and fence their neighbors away; they deface her with their buildings and their refuse. The nation is like a spring freshet that overruns its banks and destroys all that are in its path.

We cannot dwell side by side. Only seven years ago we made a treaty by which we were assured that the buffalo country should be left to us forever. Now they threaten to take that away from us. My brothers, shall we submit or shall we say to them: ‘First kill me before you take possession of my land” ― Sitting Bull

Ghouls: Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday that an alleged leader of a recent disruption in a Minnesota church has been arrested.

The crime writer Val McDermid has revealed she was assigned a “sensitivity reader” to remove language that could cause offence from her earlier works.

The Scottish author has sold more than 19m novels worldwide and is known for the authenticity of the dialogue in her work.

The books she wrote in the 1980s and 1990s featured characters in law enforcement who used racial and homophobic slurs to reflect attitudes that were prevalent at the time.

Speaking at the Out in the Hills festival in Pitlochry, an LGBTQ+ event, she spoke out about the changes she agreed to make before her Lindsay Gordon books are republished.

McDermid, referred to as the queen of crime, said it was dishonest to make authors change their previous work to “conform” to modern-day sensibilities, The Times reported.

She said: “I had to have a sensitivity reader to read my Lindsay Gordon novels to tell me the things that I couldn’t say now. I argued the case that these books were of their time and that it’s dishonest to try to make them read differently.

“In most instances, I won my point. The few examples where I didn’t win my point were to do with race.”

The Lindsay Gordon mystery novels feature a protagonist who is a lesbian Scottish freelance journalist.

McDermid, 70, added: “I think it’s kind of interesting to look at novels that were written in a particular time. A lot has changed in 40 years. But a book set in 1987 can’t suddenly have the sensibilities of a book that’s going to be published now.”

Back to the Epstein Files: Authorities in Jordan appear to be using an Israeli digital tool to extract information from the mobile phones of activists and protesters who have been critical of Israel and spoken out in support of Gaza, according to a new report by the Citizen Lab.

A multiyear investigation found with high confidence that Jordanian security authorities have been using forensic extraction tools made by Cellebrite against members of civil society, including two political activists, a student organizer, and a human rights defender, the researchers said.

When Cellebrite’s tool is deployed by authorities who have physical access to a mobile phone, it can extract data including photos, videos, chats, files, saved passwords, location history, wifi history, phone usage records, web history, social media accounts and in some cases data that a user has attempted to delete.

The Citizen Lab, which investigates digital threats against civil society, said its forensic investigation of devices that were previously seized by authorities in Jordan, as well as court records shared with researchers, indicate that the use of Cellebrite by authorities “likely violated human rights treaties Jordan has ratified”. Under the international covenant on civil and political rights (ICCPR), Jordan is required to comply with strict limits on the targeting of political dissidents and civil society with surveillance technology.

A big “C” for Cuntry Music:

Country crooner Craig Morgan is incredibly “honored” after being promoted to chief warrant officer two (CW2) at the Pentagon.

During an interview with Fox News Digital, Morgan talked about the ceremony and being promoted by the Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth. Morgan said it was a “huge honor” to have Hegseth officiate the ceremony, which took place at the Pentagon on Jan. 15.

“It was an honor. It’s always a huge honor when one of the senior leaders in your chain of command pins your rank on,” Morgan began.

After two decades of service while maintaining a full music career, “humility and pride” were the only two things going through his mind at the time of his promotion.

“Two things. Humility. I was honored beyond anything in hopes that people would recognize the pride that we have in our nation and our uniform as service members,” he began.

You understand the images, right? Fucking Infidels Biker Gang and other ICE Wannabes shooting people, Gazans, who are starving, and then a boy, kissing the hand of Col. Aguilar. That is it, no, the photos of the year: prostration to the Axis of Evil: Israel-USA, with a whole lotta support from the vassals like UK and Germany assisting in this massacre:

And so, Nazi-Landia under a Jew, Stephen Miller/Glosser, is that same fucking prostration, genuflecting to the cunts, the monsters. USA style!

Hani Duglof and his brother Mohamad Duklef arrived in Minnesota looking for help in 2014. They’d left Libya, unable to find relief for a rare condition that threatens to leave their skin torn and blistered at even the slightest provocation.

After spending more than a decade studying, working and participating in clinical trials, Duglof found himself detained by ICE, unable to access the kind of food and care he needs.

The brothers say that it happened on Jan. 10 of this year. Duglof was driving in Wisconsin when he said that two ICE vehicles pulled him over. Duklef was on the phone with him, expecting a call back soon, assuming he had been pulled over for some kind of driving infraction.

Instead, Duglof found himself being taken to the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Fort Snelling. He said that he was confused when ICE agents said that he no longer had legal status, given that he had been in the asylum process for the better part of a decade after first entering the country on a visitor visa.

“Since they handcuffed me, I felt like (I was) being treated like a criminal,” Duglof said. “They tried to take my fingerprints, but because of my condition, I don’t have fingerprints.”

A fucking face only a seven-pound sledgehammer could love.

Tejas Billa, a sophomore at Harvard, described the climate at one of the country’s top-ranked schools and how some students feel “not welcome” in certain departments and classes in an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital.

“I do absolutely think it’s a systemic issue,” Billa told Fox. “I’d say that President Garber’s comments were really in line with what a lot of the reports and the investigations into them found, which is that there are a lot of political biases.”

President Trump’s decision to suspend naturalization ceremonies is leaving residents across the country in an unusual position, now stuck in limbo after they were on the verge of gaining U.S. citizenship.

Critics say the pause is the Trump administration’s latest form of collective punishment for migrants, who have seen their hopes of citizenship dashed following the deadly shooting of a National Guard member in Washington, D.C.

The Trump administration’s arbitrary cancellation of naturalization ceremonies is about as un-American as it gets, and they need to be reinstated immediately.

Not sure what this buddy is really against? Top Catholic Clerics Denounce U.S. Foreign Policy. USA’s MORAL ROLE? These people are fucking dunces.

The three highest-ranking Roman Catholic clerics who lead archdioceses in the United States said in a strongly worded statement on Monday that America’s “moral role in confronting evil around the world” is in question for the first time in decades. Their critique of the Trump administration’s principles — while not mentioning President Trump by name — escalates the American Catholic Church’s denunciations of the country’s top leaders.

Real science hated by MAGA, Republicans and all Seme Drip Trump backers:

UC Riverside led mouse study finds microplastics affect male and female offspring differently.

Researchers at the University of California, Riverside have reported for the first time that a father’s exposure to microplastics (MPs) can lead to metabolic problems in his offspring. Using mouse models, the team uncovered a previously unrecognized way in which environmental pollution may influence the health of future generations.

Although MPs have already been identified in human reproductive tissues, this study, published in the Journal of the Endocrine Society, is the first to directly connect paternal exposure to MPs with long-term health effects in the next generation (the “F1 offspring”).

Linking paternal exposure to offspring health

MPs are extremely small plastic fragments, measuring less than 5 millimeters, that form as consumer products and industrial materials break down. Metabolic disorders describe a group of conditions that include elevated blood pressure, high blood sugar, and excess body fat, all of which raise the risk of heart disease and diabetes.

To uncover metabolic effects in F1 offspring, the researchers placed them on a high-fat diet. This strategy helps expose the impacts of paternal MP exposure that might otherwise be subtle under standard dietary conditions. The high-fat diet reflects common unhealthy eating patterns, such as the Western diet, and increases metabolic stress. Because the fathers consumed a normal diet, the obesity observed in the offspring was driven by diet rather than inherited eating behavior.

Female offspring show heightened vulnerability

The team found that female offspring of male mice exposed to MPs were far more prone to metabolic disorders than offspring of unexposed fathers, even though all offspring received the same high fat diet.

“The exact reasons for this sex-specific effect are still unclear,” said Changcheng Zhou, a professor of biomedical sciences in the UCR School of Medicine and the lead author of the study. “In our study, female offspring developed diabetic phenotypes. We observed up regulation of pro-inflammatory and pro-diabetic genes in their livers — genes previously linked to diabetes. These changes were not seen in male offspring.”

It seems like you can’t even hide from drones under the sea now, with General Atomics (GA) flight-testing its MQ-9B SeaGuardian maritime patrol unit. It was trying out the new Expanded Sonobuoy Dispensing System (ESDS) for hunting submarines where they hide.

One of the major functions of modern navies is submarine hunting. Small wonder when you consider that a nuclear ballistic missile submarine is the most powerful weapon system in history, so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on them. Not to mention that submarine attacks on shipping almost brought Britain to its knees during the Second World War.

Ain’t no socialism in that fucking Cuntry: For much of the 20th century, Sweden enjoyed a justifiable reputation as one of Europe’s most egalitarian countries. Yet over the past two decades, it has transformed into what journalist and author Andreas Cervenka calls a “paradise for the super-rich”.

Today, Sweden has one of the world’s highest ratios of dollar billionaires, and is home to numerous “unicorn” startup companies worth at least US$1 billion (£742 million), including the payment platform Klarna and audio streaming service Spotify.

The abolition of the wealth tax (förmögenhetsskatten) 20 years ago is part of this story – along with, in the same year, the introduction of generous tax deductions for housework and home improvement projects. Two decades on, the number of Swedish homes that employ cleaners is one marker of it being an increasingly two-tier country.
