The new theory -- which I'm not endorsing -- is that beaver dams actually, somehow (I'm unclear on how this works) actually reduce destructive flooding by creating some kind of reservoir area that absorbs a lot of flood overflow.
Is that true? I would not even presume to offer a guess. But beavers, especially a big chonky mama beaver weighing over 120 pounds, are now a spectacle in London, with gawkers collecting on Beaver Viewing Pavilions to watch them chomp wood.

Philly Soros DA Larry Krasner Loses Another One: Federal Court Bars A Top Lawyer In His Office From Appearing in Federal Courts Due to Lying About Evidence to Get a Murderer Off
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Remember -- these are the "prosecutors," not the defense attorneys who are lying to the court to get murders spared the death penalty or straight-up released from prison.
A former supervisor in DA Larry Krasner's office has been suspended in federal court
The development comes just one day after the Pennsylvania Supreme Court sharply curtailed Krasner's office's ability to seek to overturn old convictions and accused its lawyers of misleading judges.
A former supervisor in Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner's office has been suspended from the region's federal courts, a development that came just one day after the Pennsylvania Supreme Court sharply curtailed the office's ability to seek to overturn old convictions and accused its lawyers of misleading judges.Nancy Winkelman was suspended for three years by a panel of federal judges who found that she was complicit in efforts to mislead a federal judge while seeking to overturn the death sentence of a man convicted of killing an East Mount Airy couple in the 1980s and allow him to serve life in prison instead.
The ruling, made public this week, adds to the mounting judicial scrutiny of post-conviction work in Krasner's office. On Tuesday, the state Supreme Court imposed remarkable new restrictions on prosecutors' efforts to reverse potentially problematic convictions.
In a forceful and scolding opinion, the high court said Krasner's office misled judges, submitted false statements, and "violated its duty of candor" in asking a judge to vacate a 2004 murder conviction.
The court wrote that prosecutors' actions in the case were part of a troubling pattern of conduct in seeking to overturn murder convictions and ordered that, going forward, the state attorney general's office must be asked to review and weigh in on all such cases.
The panel of federal judges, in ordering Winkelman's suspension, echoed some of those concerns.
How did Krasner react when he learned that his former supervisor handling post-conviction relief had lied to judges to get guilty murderers off the hook?
He said -- and I'm not kidding -- SO CLOSE TO JUNETEENTH??!!?
Krasner said in a statement Wednesday night that Winkelman is an exceptional attorney who left a lucrative private law practice to serve the public. He said she always showed "exceptional competence and integrity and contributed mightily to needed reform."
"On the eve of Juneteenth," he said, "we should all remember that reform is necessary in every era. And that those who bring needed reform sometimes are made to pay a price."
Does the price always have to include lying in court, perpetrating a fraud on the court, and releasing vicious murders from prison so they can murder again?
The three-judge panel, in a ruling issued in March and unsealed this week, said Winkelman and a subordinate, former assistant district attorney Paul George, misled a federal judge by misrepresenting parts of the case while attempting to reverse the death sentence of Robert Wharton.
Wharton was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to death for the 1984 strangulation and drowning deaths of Bradley and Ferne Hart inside their East Mount Airy home.
The jury found that Wharton, angry over a disputed debt, spent months terrorizing the family before he forced his way inside the home at knifepoint and killed the couple. Afterward, he turned off the heat, leaving the couple's seven-month-old baby, Lisa, to freeze to death -- but she survived.Decades later, prosecutors in Krasner's office, in seeking to vacate his death sentence, suggested in court that the victims' family backed their effort. But it was later discovered that they had consulted only one relative and never contacted Lisa Hart-Newman, the couple's surviving daughter, who strongly opposed the move.
The woman barred for three years had a partner in this relentless campaign of fraud on the court.
But Krasner kept on both of these "rogue" prosecutors.
...Goldberg, who denied the request to reduce Wharton's sentence, later said that George's and Winkelman's review of the case was "patently deficient" and that they had violated federal rules of procedure in a manner that was "egregious" and "exceptional."
...
Last year, the three-judge panel found that [former assistant DA Paul] George had lied to Goldberg about key facts, "flouted the interests of the public and the victims' families," and acted as the "quarterback" of efforts by the district attorney's office to undo or undermine all death penalty cases.
George, 75, was disbarred in federal court. He has denied the accusations and filed an appeal. His attorneys said his disbarment was "highly disproportionate and offends basic tenets of justice." Krasner also defended George's work and said he believed the appeals court would find that the opinion criticizing George was filled with "factually and legally incorrect" statements.
..
Winkelman, the judges said, "knowingly made misrepresentations" as part of the district attorney's office "policy of vacating all death sentences."
Krasner and his staff have long denied that the office has any such policy.
But the panel appeared to reject that, writing: "We do not credit [Winkelman's] testimony that there is no such policy."
Courts keep straight-up calling Krasner not only a liar, but an actual perjurer in court.
How is not being removed from his position entirely?
The Woke Are Weak

Steve Guest @SteveGuest
Today, Barack Obama's $850 million dollar monument to himself opened.And on CNN NewsNight, Abby Phillip called the opening ceremony "church for liberals."
"This was like church for liberals. It was. Everybody was dressed in their Sunday finest and sitting in the pews, and he was delivering a message about, not just about that, but also actually, there was a lot of contrast happening about Trump, in the remarks from him..."
The transgender frenzy was to be the left's next civil rights crusade, as it constructed a new victimized class with reparatory claims against the guilty traditionalist majority.Soon, an epidemic of teens began wondering whether they were in fact "trans" and pondering whether to undergo a battery of dangerous hormonal and chemical drug regimens.
What accounts for these bouts of periodic, collective and suicidal madness?
First, the craziness is almost always birthed in the contemporary, affluent and leisured West, which alone has the capital and resources to afford such freakish sideshows.
Second, the frenzies are usually the creation of the left, predictably birthed in universities, the media and the bureaucracies.
They appear with familiar symptoms. The irredeemable, deplorable and "garbage" hoi polloi are supposedly too dense to be properly schooled and thus must be frightened to death in order to adopt agendas that otherwise appear to them as utterly insane.
Junk your natural-gas dryer and grill, or face massive floods on your coasts. Drop the SAT and defund the police or face endless race riots.
Hire thousands of race and gender commissars or be forever tagged as racists, sexists, homophobes and transphobes.
Open the border and let illegal aliens enter by the millions, and thus pay partial penance for "whiteness."
The left is correct that few Western voters will openly embrace the unpopular elite agenda of racial fixations, globalism, laxity on crime and degrowth environmentalism.
So their long-term solutions have four predictable aspects:
1) Open the borders to create a more diverse, impoverished and needy constituency.
2) Create fake "working-class" pseudo-populist candidates like the pampered Graham Platner, the God-is-nonbinary "new Christian" James Talarico and, of course, the waxen effigy of good ol' Joe Biden from Scranton.
3) Destroy time-tested systems by seeking to demolish the Electoral College, the 50-state union, the Senate filibuster and the nine-justice Supreme Court.
4) Gin up these end-of-days, pseudo-existential crises whose solutions require massive new taxes, bigger government and more dictatorial elite managers.
One good sign of growing antidotes is that increasingly Americans, and indeed all Westerners, are saying no to green haranguers, gender and sex demagogues, the race-baiting industry, the open-borders conglomerate and ungrateful immigrants.Their pushback might be summed up as: "We are no longer going to allow you to destroy ancient traditions that ensured our prosperity, security and liberty, and which were handed down to us by generations far better than your own."
The Free Becon: A Mostly Violent Protest Movement.
The indictments brought in the Eastern District of Michigan last week against eight 20-somethings deeply involved in anti-Israel protests at the University of Michigan's Ann Arbor campus pull back the curtain on what that movement is really about.Announcing the indictments, FBI director Kash Patel described a "campaign of violent, criminal acts" in which the Michigan eight engaged in a coordinated campaign of intimidation against university leaders--the president, the provost, the chief investment officer, members of the board of regents, and university police officers, plus "anyone they believed supported" the State of Israel--after the school shut down their illegal "solidarity encampment."
They threw noxious chemicals through the windows of victims' homes, taped demand letters to their doors, defaced the Jewish Federation of Detroit on the one-year anniversary of Oct. 7, and spray-painted private homes with messages like "Intifada" and "Free Palestine."
Then they tried to intimidate a witness, identified in the indictment only as a University of Michigan student the defendants believed was cooperating with federal authorities. Defendants Paige Feyock, a Wellesley graduate and University of Michigan medical researcher, and Zainab Hakim, a 2024 University of Michigan graduate who was then hired by the university for a full-time job in the Center for South Asian Studies, hatched a plan to confront the witness. In mid-July 2024 Feyock aired her concerns about a "snitch" who was "going to send us to federal prison." In early August, she told her pals she and Hakim planned to get coffee with the witness: "ima strip search [him] ... to see if he is wearing a wire. not taking no chances with him." After the fact, she reported, the victim "knows not to talk."
The alleged criminality on display in Ann Arbor is hardly an isolated incident. At UCLA, so-called protesters set up a "Jew Exclusion Zone" barring Zionists from a portion of the campus. At Columbia, pampered rich kids stormed and occupied a university building and held two janitors hostage. At Harvard, a pair of graduate students accosted a fellow student walking across campus.
We're picking up what they're putting down. The nucleus of the "pro-Palestine" protest movement more closely resembles the violent left-wing movements of the past, from the Weather Underground to the Symbionese Liberation Army and Black Lives Matter, that have used terror, violence, and intimidation in an attempt to achieve their political aims.
Have you heard of Hello Fresh? It's a kind of scammy "service" for lazy Millennials. They send you a box full of ingredients and a recipe so that you can make a meal.
I think most people would say that it's easy enough to find a recipe, build a shopping list from it, and buy the groceries yourself, but lazy, helpless adultbabies need a special service to do these very basic "Adulting" tasks for them.
But that's not the story here. The story is that Hello Fresh decided to show its #Pride by offering "high-fiber meals" for Pride Month.
High fiber? Why? Isn't high fiber for good colon health?
Ahhh. Yes, that's it.
Apparently -- and I didn't know this -- people "prep" for anal sex by having high fiber meals to clean out their colons.
And Hello Fresh is now offering recipes and ingredients to make high-fiber, pre-sodomy meals.
Is this really "pride" now? Is this how you want to represent yourselves?
Hello Fresh doubled down and left no ambiguity about the purpose of their new colon-cleaning recipes: Coupon code "BOTTOMS UP"!
Blue Apron -- a scammy competitor to Hello Fresh's feeding service for retards -- got in on the act too, but far less graphically.
I mean, still graphically. But less.
And gay activists continue to wonder why support for gay "rights" is falling.
Look at the behavior of those claiming to represent gays and their Woke White Woman "champions." There might be a clue there.
And remember: It's completely safe to create "gay marriage," because, Bigots, Nothing about gay marriage will affect your lives at all!

A practical guide for Muslims on how to navigate LGBTQ Pride month
5Pillars has compiled a brief guide for Muslims living in the West on how to navigate LGBTQ Pride month during June....
We have based the following guidance on publicly available guidance provided by mainstream Muslim scholars.
This is one of the most pressing challenges facing Muslim families in the West today: how to navigate LGBTQ-related issues while remaining grounded in Islamic teachings.
...
An Islamic framework for sexual ethics
...
In this framework, moral standards are derived from divine revelation rather than individual desire or changing social norms.
The Quranic account of Prophet Lut (as) and related Hadith clearly show that same-sex sexual relationships are prohibited in Islam.
"Do you approach males among the worlds and leave what your Lord has created for you as mates? Rather, you are a transgressing people." (Qur'an 26:165--166)
Similar passages appear in Qur'an 7:80--84, 11:77--83, 27:54--58, and 29:28--35. Classical scholars understood these verses as condemning same-sex sexual acts.
The Quran consistently describes spouses as male and female:
"And among His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquility in them..." (Qur'an 30:21)
Other relevant verses include Qur'an 4:1, 49:13, and 53:45. Traditional Islamic law recognises marriage only between a man and a woman.
I'm literally shaking rn you guys.
When I mentioned that "experts" in Spain predicted that 500,000 migrants would take advantage of mass amnesty -- but now that figure is 1,000,000 and climbing -- I forgot to mention a key admission from the socialist government: They were expressly granting mass amnesty "to defeat the far right."
Spain has started to legalise 500,000 undocumented migrants and give them the immediate right to work in a move "to fight against the advance of the far-Right".Madrid officially began the process on Tuesday after a last-minute deal between the ruling Socialist party and the Left-wing Podemos party, which has propped up Pedro Sanchez's minority government since elections in 2023.
A government spokesman said: "We not only intend to remain a beacon, but I want to believe that we will be a seed and a germ to fight against the advance of this far-Right wave that is trying to gain ground, and against which we will do everything in our power to stop it."
"Podemos" is Spanish for "We Can." Does that sound familiar to anyone? Si, Se Puede! (Yes, We Can!)
PanEuropeanMovement
@EuropeanPanThe Spanish government and its partners openly state that the reason for legalising more than half a million migrants is to "defeat the far right." This is literally weaponised demography. They took the most conspiratorial interpretation of the "Great Replacement" that is not even shared by most far right parties, namely it being a coordinated elite plan to reduce the native European share of the population, and actually turned it into policy - while also bypassing parliament, I might add.
At least nothing like that is going on in the US:

Hollywood: Shit or Garbage?
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Armie Hammer was being pushed as an actor before he was completely blacklisted from Hollywood due to #MeToo allegations I never really understood. I know people say he's a "cannibal" because his sexts included stuff like "I want to consume you" but that seems to me to be a case of dirty talk gone wrong.
I have no idea if he should or shouldn't be cancelled. I do know that he's attempting a comeback and that few people will hire him. He's in what appears to be an edgy movie about a vigilante who kills "criminals and those in power who protect them," which is always a taboo kind of movie for Hollywood. It's very low-budget, which you can tell from the movie showing off stuff to make it seem like a big-budget movie, but the stuff they're showing -- like an APC driving down the street -- is relatively cheap to achieve.
Is this some kind of signal that the cultural zeitgeist is shifting against the Regime? I doubt it, because someone is always able to raise a smallish amount of money for this kind of movie. See both the Charles Bronson Death Wish and the underrated Bruce Willis remake. (I'm not saying it's great, I'm just saying it's underrated.)
Yes, Death Wish did definitely indicate that the public was moving decisively against liberal indulgence of rampant criminality, but most of these kinds of movies mean nothing. Urban vigilante movies are often popular. Even Jodie Foster did one (and it was pretty decent.)
Still, maybe it's something? I don't know. It'll probably wind up telling us that Those In Power Protecting Criminals are Donald Trump and his friend, Cyborg Jeffrey Epstein.

Hunter Biden Challenges Don Jr. to a Cage Match; Jill Biden's Trash "Book" Flops Hard but the Fake NYT Bestseller List Has It, Somehow, At #1
—Disinformation Expert Ace
A reality TV clown before actually being cast on a reality TV show:
A tough-talking Hunter Biden has challenged Donald Trump Jr. to a cage fight in a lengthy social media post about how the UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House was offensive to him.Former President Joe Biden's (D) son directed his comments to podcaster Joe Rogan on Thursday, writing, "Dear Joe, I wish I could sit down with you face to face and explain why so many of us were offended by the UFC fight on the South Lawn of the White House."
"For me, it had nothing to do with the UFC or who showed up for the fights. The brand you and Dana have built is a bona fide American success story. More power to you. As for the fighters, in my book, anyone brave enough to put it all on the line in the arena is remarkable to witness," he continued.
However, Hunter said his "problem" with it was that "I believe some of our public spaces are sacred," adding, "The White House does not belong to Donald Trump. It does not belong to any President. It belongs to the people. To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for. This is not Rome. Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants. The White House is the People's House."
...When it comes to Hunter's comment that "some of our public spaces are sacred," it is important to note that transgender activists bared their topless chests during a White House LGBTQ Pride Event his father hosted in 2023.
This was not the first time Hunter has advertised his readiness to fight President Donald Trump's sons. In April, he made it clear he was "100 percent in" on a cage match with Don Jr. and Eric Trump, Breitbart News reported.
It was unclear where Hunter, a convicted felon who is $17 million in debt, wanted to have the cage match with Don Jr. because he recently self-deported to South Africa, the outlet reported in April.
There are multiple layers of controversies surrounding Hunter, one of which Breitbart News highlighted in May.
Here's why Don Jr. should not accept Hunter Biden's offer to fight him in a UFC style cage match:
1, Don, Jr. has a career, unlike disgraced crackhead, gun felon, tax felon, whore-addict, and paternity-dodger Hunter Biden. Don Jr. can continue a career in politics or go back to working as an executive in the Trump businesses, while Hunter Biden's career path consists of a single track:
1, getting cast on increasingly sleazy and cheap "reality" TV shows as the Designated Heel,
2, gay porn where he only "gives,"
3, gay porn where he begins "taking,"
4, gay porn where he starts "taking" from six to eight men at one go,
and then
5, dying of AIDS-related complications.
This is the career path of failed influencers and internet-based whores such as Bonny Blue and is the best case scenario for the last squalid chapters of Hunter Biden's miserable life.
But Don Jr. is not on that track. Gratefully, most people are not.
The criminal Biden family still has some opportunities to grift left open to them.
Hunter Biden, $17 Million in Debt, Is Hired by 'Ultra-Luxury' Drug Rehab Clinic for 'High-Achieving' Professionals The former first son appears to be leveraging his new visibility as an addiction recovery influencer to get work
It's as if he went to a career counselor, who asked him "What do you like doing?" and he said "Drugs and lots of them, and being paid for merely existing" and the counselor pulled out the contact information for this place.
This only works for the filthily degenerate sons of Democrat Crime Family Capos, of course.
An "ultra-luxury" drug and alcohol rehab center nestled in the Hollywood Hills has hired former first son Hunter Biden as an adviser and executive director of its charitable foundation, a new gig that could help the convicted felon whittle down millions of dollars in unpaid legal bills and other debts.Peak Path Health announced Biden's hire this week, touting his "lived experience and professional insight" from his struggles with addiction to crack, alcohol, and other substances. "The announcement comes during a meaningful milestone in Hunter Biden's personal journey, as he celebrates seven years of sobriety this month," says Peak Path.
The Yale-educated attorney joins Peak Path, which launched last year, as he has positioned himself on social media and the podcast circuit as a ubiquitous recovery influencer, speaking openly about his lifelong struggle with sobriety, as well as taking pot shots at his family's detractors.
Biden's new job could be of interest to his many creditors. Biden has said he owes $17 million to attorneys who represented him in tax and gun felony cases, as well as various defamation lawsuits. Biden, who received a presidential pardon for the federal crimes from his father, claimed in recent legal filings that he is destitute, and unable to pay Winston & Strawn, the firm that represented him and is now suing him over unpaid bills, claiming he is "impecunious" and "does not have" enough money to conduct a professional search for emails sought in the lawsuit. In one filing, Biden's attorney said he was living abroad, and therefore unable to respond to Winston & Strawn's demands that he pay his bills. But Biden has been spotted in the United States multiple times in April and May--three times in wealthy areas of Southern California and once in Nashville, when he made an in-person appearance in the studio of the notorious antisemitic podcaster Candace Owens.
Read the whole thing from Chuck Ross. He points out that Hunter Biden keeps tweeting and speaking as if he is present in the US, which makes his court representations perjurious and jailable.
Allegedly. Allegedly.
It is unclear how much Peak Path will pay Biden, and whether his job requires him to work on-location at its treatment facilities or if he can work remotely from his supposed "overseas" home. Peak Path did not respond to requests for comment, and Biden's attorney declined to comment. Biden also says he has another Southern California gig, working as director of development at BASTA Universal, a tenants rights law firm in Los Angeles that had its nonprofit status revoked last year.
I think we'd all like to universally say Basta to Hunter Biden.
Meanwhile, Jill Biden's book failed to chart on Amazon's lists and has only sold 20,000 copies in two weeks but the corrupt communist propaganda rag The New York Times says it's #1.
BTW, the New York Times infamously admitted in court that its "besteller list" was rigged and entirely fictitious itself. An author sued them for not being included on the list despite having the actual, factual #1 bestseller, and the NYT's defense was that its "bestseller" list was not intended to be an actual list of books selling the best, but a holistic view of what middle-aged white Karens might want to pretend to read.

Players on the Minor League Team the York (PA) Revolution Refuse to Wear Their Rainbow Uniforms, So the Team Cancels the Game and Forfeits
—Disinformation Expert Ace
But note, the team threw the players under the bus, claiming they're not "welcoming" and "supportive" of the LGBT "community."
Minor league baseball's York Revolution in Pennsylvania declined to play its Pride Night game Thursday after players refused to wear uniforms that featured a rainbow design, team officials said.The Revolution's game against the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs was to have marked the team's 11th annual Pride Night, but players refused to don special jerseys that had rainbow sleeves.
Thursday night's game will go down as a forfeit, the Revolution said.
"This decision was not reached lightly," the team said in a statement.
President and GM Ben Shipley said his manager told him Tuesday that fewer than nine players on the 28-man roster -- the minimum needed to fill out a lineup card -- were willing to play in Thursday night's uniforms.
Love. It. I had no idea this was such a widespread rejection of the Gay Garb.
Shipley said the discussion led to an unprecedented team meeting at which he was unable to talk players into wearing the rainbow sleeves.
"I'm disappointed that we're at this point, and I recognize the players' plight and their unwillingness to cross their line. I also think tolerance is not acceptance," Shipley told NBC News on Thursday.
"I was just asking for tolerance from the team, and they were unwilling to navigate that with me."
The spirit of Pride Night would have been compromised had players been forced to wear uniforms that celebrated the community, the Revolution said.
"Unfortunately, several of our players have refused to wear the scheduled Pride Night jersey and the club decided that hosting the event is more important than forcing players to wear jerseys they are not comfortable with and playing the game," the team said.
...
Other Pride Night events are still set to go on as scheduled at the ballpark free of charge. They include music, fan batting practice and other on-the-field activities, Shipley said.
The team is set to return to action Friday against Southern Maryland.
Team officials criticized their own players for refusing to celebrate the LGBTQ community.
...
The incident in York unfolded less than a week after four players with the San Francisco Giants staged a silent protest against the team's Pride Night celebration by writing Bible references on their hats.
After the Giants incident, MLB warned players not to deface their uniforms.
As mentioned, the team itself -- the urban monoculture-captured corporation -- threw the players under the bus.
Andy Ngo @MrAndyNgoPennsylvania minor league baseball team the York Revolution forfeited their Pride Night game tonight against the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs after their players refused to wear Pride-themed rainbow jerseys.
The team criticized its own players, calling the refusal "completely inconsistent" with their vision as the "Most Welcoming Place in York." They donated $10,000 to a local LGBTQIA+ group, the Rainbow Rose Center, for the 11th annual event.
If a team demanded that all the players wear Back the Blue shirts, or White Live Matters shirts, or MAGA Baby! shirts, would the left concede that perhaps there is a freedom of conscience issue here?
No of course not. "That's different," because a leftist Karen says so.
Rob Schneider -- yes, the "makin' copies" guy -- shows almost Justine-Bateman-levels of #Basedness.

Dear professional baseball players,ANY player in ANY professional LEAGUE who is FINED by their league for refusing to be FORCED to participate in WOKE LEFTIST AGENDAS, who refuses to wear ridiculous uniforms (or cleats), @TPUSA and I will PAY any and ALL of your Fines!
You signed a contract to play baseball, you didn't sign a contract to go against your deeply held Christian religious beliefs.
Baseball is our National Pastime, not Drag queen story hour.
Sincerely yours,Rob Schneider and Turning Point USA!
Gay activists are determined to force straight people to LARP as gay. Earlier this week I linked video of a teacher being fired for forcing female students to pretend to be lesbian and kiss each other -- with the teacher grading them according to how convincing the forced sexual roleplay was.
And then they wonder why support for gays and gay marriage is plummeting.
It's because you promised us that if we allowed gay marriage, "Nothing in your lives will change!"
But we now know that was just another Gay Race Communist lie -- gay marriage is the Trojan horse for the real agenda, which is to make gays feel "safe" and "included" by forcing straights to become gay, or at least gay a few days a year. In solidarity, you understand.
I implore the gay community to rebuke their most insane activists and turn away from this path. A tiny minority cannot bully a majority as if they were masters and the majority were slaves, and if they attempt to do so, the ultimate reckoning for this lunatic crusade will be terrible.

In the UK, a "Man" Throws a 3-Year-Old Boy Into a Zoo Enclosure Filled with Crocodiles
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Societies usually take 1,000 years to hit this level of Cultural Enrichment.
Do I know this is a Cultural Enrichment Officer come from a faraway land to educated and elevate the sullen natives?
No, I don't... but it is notable that the media and police are deploying their usual obfuscation by refusing any identification of the attacker beyond "man" -- thank you, that paints such a vivid picture.
And the police are deploying their usual euphemism: He's a mentally-ill individual, so there is obviously no wider political question at play here.
He just cray-cray, that's all. Now look into the red light of this Neuralizer.
Boy, 3, thrown to crocodiles at zooMan aged 30 arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after child left in critical condition
What kind of man? Oh, a 30 year old man. That answers all of my actuarial questions.
A three year-old boy was in a critical condition on Thursday night after he was thrown into a crocodile enclosure at a Cambridgeshire zoo.Police said they had arrested a 30-year-old British man from Norfolk on suspicion of attempted murder after the incident at Johnsons Zoo, near Huntingdon, on Thursday afternoon.
A "British man from Norfolk." Does this mean he was born British or...?
The suspect and the boy, who was taken by air ambulance to Addenbrooke's hospital with serious injuries, were not believed to have known each other, officers added.
Johnsons Zoo has 10 species of crocodile, which visitors can view from a raised platform above the Tropical House enclosure.
The Telegraph understands that several crocodiles were in the enclosure when the child entered the water.
It is believed that the zoo owner's wife, Tracey Johnson, jumped into the enclosure to rescue the child.
Hero!
It has not been specified whether the boy's injuries were caused by an attack by the crocodiles, or by the fall into the enclosure.
...
"We do not believe the man arrested and the child are known to each other. Officers are supporting the boy's family at hospital, and our thoughts remain with them."
Oh, so a personal grudge against the three-year-old child is ruled out. The child was not banging the attacker's wife.
Any other ideas about a motive, Sherlock?
The Daily Mail suggests -- they can't confirm it -- that the man is mentally retarded and got away from his care-givers at the zoo.
Tearful witnesses have described seeing a three-year-old boy being tossed into a crocodile pit at a British zoo by a man with learning difficulties before the owner's 'heroic' wife leapt in to rescue him.
Tracey Johnson apparently pulled the child to safety. He remains in a critical but stable condition after suffering a broken arm and pelvis in the incident in Cambridgeshire yesterday.
Awful. The boy was dropped a full five yards on to a hard concrete surface, then rolled into the water to either drown or be eaten by crocodiles
A 30-year-old man from Norfolk, believed to be a stranger to the victim, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.
But he has already been released on bail until September 18 having been assessed as 'not being fit for interview,' police said today.
The attacker was a 'mentally disabled' man who was at the zoo on an organised day out from his home with a carer, according to some reports.
The boy had been looking at the reptiles when he was thrown around 15ft from an elevated viewing platform down into the Johnsons of Old Hurst tropical house near Huntingdon.
One expert believes he probably landed on a concrete surface and then rolled into the water.
...
The enclosure contains at least 15 crocodiles and alligators, including two of the largest - Nile crocodiles called Romeo and Cuddles. Both are believed to measure between 9ft and 11ft, with Romeo, the male, weighing up to 485lbs.
It is not yet known whether the boy sustained all his injuries from the fall or if he was also attacked by one of the animals - but an expert has confirmed that if the child fell next to a crocodile he will have been bitten.
He's a violent monster who attempts to feed babies to crocodiles. There are limits to compassion and this is eight or ten miles beyond that limit. Even if you don't actually imprison him in a prison, you have to imprison him in a locked room.
But the UK justice system disagrees.
Whether or not this is a case of a foreign-born Cultural Enricher or a homegrown Cultural Enricher... police have already released the "man" who attempted to murder a three-year-old by feeding him to crocodiles.
Ben Graham @BenGrahamUK5h
A man is alleged to have thrown a 3 year old into a crocodile enclosure yesterday.
Less than 24 hours later, police say he's been released on bail because he's "not fit for interview."
The police are going to have to explain this one.
How is releasing someone back into the public before they've even been interviewed for attempted murder acceptable?
What message does that send?

Tulsi Gabbard Releases Fresh Evidence That Fauci Funded the Creation of Covid-19, Then Intimidated Officials from Blowing the Whistle on His Crimes
—Disinformation Expert Ace
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence issued this statement:
Fauci Funded Wuhan Lab Research That Sparked COVIDNew Evidence Fauci Manipulated Intelligence and Lied to Congress
WASHINGTON D.C. -- Before the COVID-19 pandemic, Anthony Fauci, as head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV)--work which is now widely viewed as the source of the unintentional lab leak that sparked the pandemic.
Today, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Fauci worked with politicized career leadership in the Intelligence Community (IC) to suppress the truth about his actions, the virus' lab-leak origins, and his role in directing U.S. funding for this dangerous research that caused immeasurable harm and countless lost lives. These documents expose Fauci's direct role in influencing and manipulating IC assessments on COVID-19, and how Fauci lied to Congress in 2024, when under oath he denied knowledge of or participation in discussions with intelligence officials about viral research.
Based on a statement I heard once that the "Intelligence" community is absolutely determined to continue this dangerous bioweapon research, maybe we should think of Anthony Fauci as an IC "fixer" doing their bidding to keep funding bioweapon creation despite presidents outlawing it.
...The materials released today are a result of DNI Gabbard's yearlong declassification review in support of President Trump's maximum transparency mandate. During this process, ODNI officials gathered testimony from multiple IC whistleblowers who reported retaliation for challenging the IC's manipulation of intelligence on the virus' origins. This unveiled a clear pattern of suppressing dissent, silencing critics, and burying evidence that undermined IC integrity and disserved the American people.
Fauci's close IC relationships enabled him to assume three key roles during the pandemic that shielded him from scrutiny as he wielded outsized influence.* Fauci funded risky coronavirus research linked to big pharma and the pursuit of "universal vaccines" worth trillions of dollars.
* Fauci was the behind-the-scenes advisor who, with his hand-picked experts, pushed the IC to endorse a natural, animal origin to hide his dangerous research.
* Fauci became the nation's pandemic "pundit" and publicly pushed lies, disinformation, and censorship.
Fauci's Relationship With The Intelligence Community Drove Intelligence & Public Narratives
Throughout the pandemic, Fauci and politicized leaders within the IC created a self-serving circular reporting loop. He provided hand-picked NIAID-funded scientists to advise the IC. This input shaped official intelligence assessments, which were then publicly cited as scientific consensus to refute the lab-leak theory.
"Circular reporting" is a disinformation trick deployed by intelligence services and the most malign "intelligence service" in the world, the media. It consists of feeding a storyline to a third party, who spreads that storyline in the media. Then you say you read the storyline in the media, pretending that the storyline originated somewhere else, so you can claim to be a disinterested observer. When you then say you are convinced by the storyline you read in the media --which of course you wrote yourself -- you seem to be an objective, neutral observer who was convinced by the arguments and evidence of a third party having no connection with you.
One of the big, and true, criticisms of the case for the Iraq War is that Bush regime operatives fed "intelligence" to some reporters claiming proof that Iraq had WMDs, and then cited those reporters as neutral actors who independently confirmed the WMDs.
The media was very down on circular reporting at that time.
And then later, they completely forgot what it was or why it was a corrupt disinformation practice.
Because Hillary Clinton and her minions used circular reporting extensively to promote the Russian Asset Hoax. They planted the story with corrupt media operatives, then cited the "reporting' of those corrupt media operatives as evidence that Trump was a RUSSIAN ASSET.
And the media never noticed. How could they? They were knowing conspirators in the peddling of the psyop fiction.
According to hundreds of reviewed emails, the IC almost always incorporated his recommendations. Fauci promoted a fraudulent paper, whose publication he helped prompt, as legitimate information for Intelligence Community consideration. Senior analysts praised Fauci not as a "policymaker," but as an unbiased guide to "the real coronavirus experts"--while ignoring experts who might dissent from Fauci's narratives.
We already knew this, but she's referring to the paper that Fauci told two of his allies -- and two of the men he fed grant money to -- to write a paper claiming they had completely debunked any claim that covid-19 was artificially manufactured in a lab.
Then Fauci cited this paper which he had directed to be written by men he was paying taxpayer money to as proof from completely-disinterested third-party "experts" absolving him of blame in the creation of covid-19.
Fauci Lied to CongressThe correspondence released today directly contradicts Fauci's 2024 testimony to the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic. In that hearing, while under oath, Fauci was repeatedly asked whether he spoke to "FBI, CIA, DIA or any U.S. intelligence agency concerning viral research" before, during, or after the pandemic. Fauci repeatedly dodged the questions, before falsely stating, "not to my knowledge about COVID."
Retaliation Against Truth-Seekers
Testimony from multiple whistleblowers reveals intelligence analysts who challenged Fauci's COVID-origin conclusions faced threat of retaliation, were marginalized, and often suffered career setbacks. This silenced dissent and fostered a culture where truth was sacrificed to conformity and credible evidence was buried.
The following are examples from whistleblower accounts that Director Gabbard has referred to the Intelligence Community's Inspector General.
* A contractor was terminated just days after coming forward to ODNI as a whistleblower.
* Managers reminded analysts who advocated for the lab-leak hypothesis that leadership would determine which analysts would be promoted. The message was clear: disagreement with the manipulated finding would derail careers.
* Senior leaders allegedly set up roadblocks for whistleblowers, removing anonymity from the complaint process by insisting managers or attorneys be present at ODNI meetings, creating an atmosphere of intimidation.
Rand Paul is still arguing that the "pardon" granted to Fauci is historically unprecedented, unconstitutionally broad (it pardons Fauci for everything, even if we discover he was a serial killer) over an unprecedented 10 year span of time. He also says that Biden didn't sign it.
Unfortunately, I don't expect this argument to carry the day. I don't even think Trump will push it, because obviously Trump will have to pardon himself and all of his officials in his last days of office, to protect them from the Stalin-like revenge lawfare Democrats have already undertaken and have promised to continue even more ferociously after Trump's retirement.
If I were Trump, I wouldn't want to set the precedent that pardons can be challenged and set aside.
Of course, precedent or not, that will mean nothing to Democrats. They'll do it anyway.

THE MORNING RANT: Slippery Slopes – The Presbyterian Church (PCUSA) Will Not Prohibit Polyamory Among Its Clergy
—Buck Throckmorton
When I left the Presbyterian Church (PCUSA) a quarter-century ago, it was not specifically due to the assertively left-wing politics of the church. Rather, it was the realization that its clergy and leadership were not believers in the core tenets of the faith, and had substituted biblical teaching with political preaching. There was no longer a focus on Jesus’ divinity and resurrection, in large part because much (most?) of the clergy did not believe in it. The mission of the church had become left-wing politics, not heavenly salvation.
But because the Presbyterian Church of the 20th century (before its full political capture) was where I learned The Word as a child, and where I observed Christian role models showing me how to lead a life of Christian witness, I still monitor its heretical antics in the 21st century. I’m heartbroken by the actions of those wearing its vestments while desecrating its legacy, but I’m also fascinated as to the lengths they will go in mocking traditional Christian values while still calling themselves Christians. By the way, this is the church of U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico (D – TX).
Although there were battles in the PCUSA about “gays in the pulpit” that went on for decades, it was only in 2011 that the church finally abandoned its previous doctrine regarding fidelity in a heterosexual marriage (or chastity if single) for clergy. Homosexuals were now welcome in the pulpit, and by 2014 the church was fully on board with gay marriage.
But what about fidelity in marriage?
The denomination’s biennial “General Assembly” conference is occurring this month, and there is a proposal to be voted on that would require clergy of any sexual orientation to only engage in monogamous sexual relationships. The proposal is not being well received, and will almost certainly not be passed.
The overture has generated strong reactions online but has not yet earned broad support from PCUSA groups. A separate proposal asks for theological studies on gender and sexuality, life-giving relationships and the Christian vocation of family that would support the denomination’s commitment to inclusion of different familial realities. Together these overtures show that as polyamory gains visibility in broader culture; it may have policy implications, especially in theologically progressive denominations.
Polyamory is now a part of the inclusive tolerance of those wearing the skinsuit of the (formerly-respectable) Presbyterian Church (USA). Polygamous marriage will almost certainly become a church sacrament in the near future.
“Seminarian” James Talarico attended the Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, which is more of a woke indoctrination camp than it is a place to learn about the Christian faith. As crazy as Talarico’s six genders and non-binary God may sound, that is what is being taught at this “Christian” seminary: “James Talarico Trained at Seminary that Teaches Social Justice Activism” [Washington Examiner – 3/13/2026]
Mr. Talarico is still a single man who shares a checking account with his mother. If he can cut those apron strings, find some mates, and get elected to the U.S. Senate, he can perhaps become the first member of Congress with six spouses – one for each of the genders he learned about at his polyamorous-friendly seminary.
To be fair, the Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary doesn’t explicitly state that there are just six genders, it leaves open the possibility that there are actually many more “gender expressions.”
Other Stuff I’m Writing About
My latest piece at the The American Spectator has been published. “ Breaking News: Summer Is Hot; It would be a statistical anomaly not to have numerous record temperatures recorded each year” discusses how it is a statistical certainty that there will be, on average, thousands of record-high, daily temperatures recorded each year. It’s also statistically inevitable that there will be, on average, hundreds of all-time hottest temperatures ever recorded across the planet, each and every year.
In the United States, temperature records date back about 100 to 140 years, depending on location. It would be fair to say that approximately 120 years is the typical historical database for a location’s temperature data. For each station, there is a record-high temperature for each day of the year, and also a record-low temperature for each day of the year. With 365 record-high temperatures for each station, spread over 120 years, that means that each station should record about three record-high temperatures each year, with a normal distribution. If there are fewer than three record highs being recorded in a given year, that would actually be below average.
This piece is not behind a paywall. I’d be honored if you’d give it a read.

Good morning kids. Today of course is one of the most significant and powerful of American holidays where we commemorate and celebrate the profound impact of TImmy and Lassie, Lost In Space and Petticoat Junction to our history, heritage and society. So in that vein I want to wish you and yours a very joyous and blessed June's Teeth!
And continuing on to some other minor items. Of course the MOU or memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran concerning the cessation of current hostilities. President Trump stated unequivocally that this was "unconditional surrender.":
President Trump shockingly claimed that the controversial memorandum of understanding with Iran “probably” amounts to unconditional surrender from Tehran as he grapples with a GOP revolt over the preliminary deal.Back in March, during the early days of Operation Epic Fury, Trump publicly insisted that he would not cut a deal with Iran unless it agreed to an unconditional surrender.
“Well, but really it probably is unconditional surrender,” Trump told Axios reporter Mark Caputo, per a preview clip of their interview.Typically, unconditional surrender has meant that the losing side agrees to all demands.
Given the situation on the ground in Iran, the President might actually be correct except not in the way he thinks. WIth the Iranian government that has spilled oceans of blood and pursued nuclear weapons with only its word and pinky-swears that it will cease both, still essentially intact despite the rubble bouncing, perhaps it is we who have surrendered to them?
As CBD and I discussed on the latest episode of the podcast linked here and in the sidebar, yes it is a good thing that we at least degraded their ability to build nukes and export terror in the short term, what lies ahead leaves much room for doubt as to our and the world's long-term safety and security from Iran and really ISLAM's quest for the subjugation of he world.
At the end of her final day in office as director of national intelligence, former Democrat Tulsi Gabbard today released a slew of formerly classified papers, documents, and email communications that prove that Anthony Fauci had not only approved extensive funding to the Wuhan lab in China that was the source of the Covid virus, he lied about his actions to Congress and to the public.
In the last analysis, when you add up the number of deaths both as a result of the virus as well as the vaccines along with the suffering of those who survived the disease, Anthony Fauci can be regarded as one of the greatest mass murderers in recent memory if not of all time. All because globalists and Democrats as well as the Red Chinese feared a Donald Trump presidency, or it was simply a Chi-Com test of a bioweapon they prematurely released, perhaps saving it for a future date or as cover for aninvasion of Taiwan. Either way, next to Islam theRed Chinese are an existential threat to our survival as they too seek global domination.
Lots of other abominations, infamies and depredations in the links, so with that I bid you all,

Russia Sets Blaze to a 1000-Year-Old Ukrainian Monestary with a Missile, So Ukraine Launches Massive Drone Attack at... Moscow
—Disinformation Expert Ace
That escalated quickly. That really took a jump.
Ukraine hit a major Moscow oil refinery for a second time in a week and disrupted commercial flights at Moscow airports in one of its biggest drone attacks since Russia's all-out invasion of its neighbor more than four years ago, Russian officials said Thursday.Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the attacks retaliation for a strike that damaged a historic monastery in Kyiv this week, and he said "Moscow will burn" if the Russian attacks continue.
"We don't want this war, we never did, and everyone knows it, and our partners know it," Zelenskiy said in a voice message sent to reporters on a WhatsApp group. "But if Ukraine burns, your Moscow will burn."
I was wondering why Ukraine would launch such a provocative attack at Moscow, especially since they seem to actually be winning this war now. Russia's spring offensive resulted in a net loss of territory and a lot of loss of men and materiel. Ukraine is now pummeling Russian trucks and bridges with drone attacks. Attacking logistics seems to me -- and unlike a woke white woman, I'm not an expert -- a second-order priority in war, so the fact that Ukraine is now devoting so many drones and artillery to blowing up Russia's capacity to move food, fuel, and ammunition suggests to me they have their first-order priorities reasonably secured.
(I don't mean to say logistics aren't important. I've heard the adage "Amateurs think about strategy, professionals think about logistics." I just mean that if Russia were pinning down and killing Ukrainian soldiers and tanks, the first order priority would be attacking those enemy forces to spare the men. If Ukraine can spare so many drones to blow up locomotives and trucks, I assume they are not being killed by the hundreds at the moment.)
Putin will use -- or will try to use -- a nuke rather than lose. Why give him a justification for using one?
But I guess they felt they had to respond in kind to the frequent missile and drone attacks on Kyiv.
"The main thing is that the people of Russia begin to feel that it is one man, Putin, who is waging this war, while ordinary people pay the price for everything," he said.
The attack came hours after Zelenskyy said he had held "an important coordination call" with President Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron that may "bring about significant change."

Democrats, Migrants and Other Criminals Continue Looting America Blind
—Disinformation Expert Ace
But fortunately, the Trump Administration is busting them.
A Pakistani "community leader" feted by communist jihadi Theater Kid Zohran Mamdani stole $38 million of our money in an "adult day care" scam.
The first hint it was a scam should have been that it was an "adult day care."
This was another Democrat agenda item, and of course they insisted there be practically no verification whatsoever for billing American taxpayers for services not rendered.
Alleged $38M adult day care scam busted in Brooklyn -- snaring Pakistani community leaders who cozied up to Dems
A prominent Pakistani-American businessman who spent years cozying up to powerful Democrats stands accused of being part of a $38 million Medicaid scam.Civic leader and well-known Brooklyn Community Board 13 member Pervez Siddiqui, 78, was arrested Monday along with seven co-conspirators.
They are alleged to have run a large-scale Medicaid kickback and false-billing scheme through two social adult day care (SADC) centers in Brooklyn: APNA Adult Daycare and Ashiana Social Adult Daycare.
The scam ran from 2019 through December 2025, feds allege, with seniors being signed up for day cares that they rarely or never attended, then getting a cut of the Medicaid payment.
"Marketers are going around looking for the Medicaid card. They stop people on the street, at bus stops. They go into doctors' offices. They go into NYCHA [government housing] where they know people are low-income. They ask, 'Do you have a Medicaid card?'" a source with knowledge of the investigation told The Post.
Siddiqui, who owns around 15 pharmacies in New Jersey, is prolific in local political circles and a regular donor to Democratic campaigns, sometimes shelling out over $10,000 a pop to local candidates, records show. And through his ties to another group, he scored an intimate sit-down with New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani in December 2025, pictures obtained by The Post show.
The other defendants are Who's Who of Pakistani Dick Tracy villains.
Shazia Bibi (a.k.a. Shazia Wattoo), Abdul Aziz, Shair Ali, and their recruiter co-defendants Zebun Ahmed, Josna Begum, Saira Khatoon, and Atia Shahnaz were also involved, according to the unsealed indictment against them.The gang paid cash bribes directly to New York Medicaid recipients to enroll at APNA or Ashiana -- even though most never attended their facilities -- and paid the recruiters kickbacks to refer patients, while submitting $38 million in fraudulent claims to New York Medicaid for services that were never provided, according to the indictment.
Remember when the left was so upset in the 80s and 90s at the fable that Wall Street traders were stealing millions with just a pen?
They're not upset at all by this brazen theft by paperwork.
For handing over their Medicaid card, seniors at APNA or their family members were getting $500 a month in kickbacks for day care services that were never provided, according to the source.
Below: The reporters here have completely different sense of the word "shockingly" than I do, or than you do.
Shockingly, the indictment says the payments were made even when enrollees were not in the US. The sources claimed many had even gone to live in other countries while they or their family members collected Medicaid kickback money."The patient is in Pakistan, they're in Morocco. They're not even in this country," the source claimed.
I don't think I've ever been less shocked.
I'll tell you what's shocking: The main man crow came to the window and looked at me, to let me know I could put out food. I had saved a steakbone just to cut off the bits of meat (orts, in crossword clue vocabulary) and give it to him.
I did, but he flew off and did not return.
It's actual steak, for crying out loud!
Now that is shocking.
Here's what's not shocking: more illegal immigrants are stealing American taxpayer money in another blue sanctuary jurisdiction controlled by Democrats.
This one, Massachusetts.
11 suspected illegal immigrants among 15 arrested in $1.4M benefits fraud crackdown in Massachusetts, DOJ says One defendant allegedly carried out more than $546,000 in fraud involving MassHealth, Social Security and housing assistance
A nationwide welfare fraud crackdown reached Massachusetts this week as federal authorities announced the arrests of 15 people -- 11 of them illegal immigrants -- accused of stealing more than $1.4 million in American taxpayer-funded benefits....
"Alarmingly, 11 of the 15 charged defendants are suspected illegal aliens, some of whom assumed stolen identities to steal these taxpayer-funded benefits and avoid detection," Acting Assistant Attorney General Colin MacDonald said during a Thursday press conference in Boston....
MacDonald argued the alleged crimes did more than drain public coffers, saying some Americans were effectively locked out of programs intended to help them because their identities had already been used by fraudsters.
"In some cases, the victims of these crimes, the rightful beneficiaries of these funds, could not access benefits they needed," MacDonald said. "American citizens were boxed out of these programs because illegal aliens took their names to then take their money."
...
Federal officials said the investigation was conducted with assistance from Homeland Security Investigations and multiple inspector general offices. They vowed additional arrests and charges are forthcoming as investigators continue examining benefit programs for fraud.
"The further we look, the more fraud we find," MacDonald said. "And this is just the beginning of our work."
