There is no reason that white U.S. citizens should be “afraid” of ICE.

Americans with personal integrity are protesting the lawlessness and senseless violence that ICE is inflicting on people of color in large, Democrat-run cities.

Rule of law actually means something to us.

Here’s a reboot of the folk-rock song “San Francisco” of the late 1960s.  Great stuff.

The fellow who sent me this from England remarks: Alarming how many Germans are starting to compare the situation to early 1930’s Germany before WW2 and the associated genocides began.

When I was asked the question at left, I replied: The last paragraph of “The Grapes of Wrath” makes me cry every time I think of it, let alone read it.

The last line (as closely as I can remember it): Rose of Sharon looked up at the roof of the barn and smiled mysteriously.”

The meme here reminds us that it was once possible to be both a Republican and a decent human being.

Think Dwight D. Eisenhower.

All that’s ancient history now.

To the reader who sent me this: Is it a joke? The national debt rose $2.23 trillion in 2025.

Senator Dick Durbin emphasized that despite Donald Trump, his cabinet, and MAGA supporters refusing to admit it, “the American people know” Trump lost the 2020 presidential election.

But they will “never admit it.”

They will “never” admit it?

Never is a long time, as they say.

Trump (and Mike Lindell of pillow fame) claim that they have irrefutable truth that the 2020 election was rigged, but they just can’t release it to the public.

Does anyone think that the American voters, idiots that they are, will accept this into perpetuity?

Will there be a MAGA base here 50 years hence that laments, “Mr. Trump has undeniable proof that he won that 2020 election, and his heirs are about to release this in the next two weeks?”

Sorry.

We’ll see.
Right now, he’s on a path to move the United States from a constitutional republic to become just another totalitarian state.
Maybe we’re so stupid that we won’t know the difference, or that some of our most hateful morons will actually like it.
I don’t want ICE agents charging into my town and entering our houses without warrants, but obviously not everybody feels the same way.  With an approval rating of 37%, more than one-third of American voters love this guy.
There’s a reason no American visits North Korea, Kazakhstan, or any of the other 50+dictatorships on this planet: their countries are disgusting, and all we can do is to feel sorry for the people trapped inside.

Here’s a company looking for investors in their small wind concept.  They write:
For years, people accepted that small wind turbines did not work. Too loud. Too fragile. Too unreliable. The problem was never the wind. It was the Design.
The reason that small wind vanished from the face of the Earth is that the cost of a kilowatt-hour of electricity is astronomical, for three reasons:
1) Because the area of a circle is proportional to the square of its radius, the swept area of an industry-standard wind turbine with a radius of 100 times that of a roof-mounted turbine will produce 10,000 times more power.
2) The power delivered from a wind turbine is proportionate to the cube of the wind velocity.  Siting a wind turbine in a place with twice as much wind speed as another yields eight times more power.  That’s why wind farms are located in wide open spaces, elevated high above the ground, in regions that have huge wind speeds.  These regions, btw, are generally places that human beings don’t want to live.  The wind conditions on your rooftop, with trees and other buildings all around, are not going to come even close.
3) Both large and small turbines must be built to deal with uncountable millions of rotations in the course of their lifetimes. This requires incurring significant costs to minimize friction, deal with stresses and strains, etc.  Big wind can amortize these costs by virtue of the fact that they generate incredibly more power than small wind.
Small wind has been dead for about 15 years, and there are three solid reasons for that.

Until recently, embracing the world’s most brutal dictators wasn’t something that U.S. presidents did.

Anyone with the IQ of a turnip can see where this is going.

Re: the meme here, I doubt it.

Poor Americans tend to be uneducated, and ignorant people are easy to manipulate with ideas like: Immigrants are coming for your jobs, and Illegals are voting (for Democrats) in our elections and living off government welfare.
