If I ever reply to you and say "The problem is ..." then I apologise in advance. I hate that phrase. There never is "a" problem. The real world is really complex. If you use the phrase "common sense" instead of reasoned argument you may not get a reply.

Huh. Surely they can't be ICE: Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin: "Our ICE law enforcement are held to the highest professional standards ..." Or maybe these agents aren't "ICE law enforcement"?

I asked ChatGPT about the nature of historical measures of autism rates vs contemporary. "...it's quite likely that the reported increase in autism rates over time is influenced significantly by changes in how autism is diagnosed and understood, rather than reflecting a true explosion..."
Text of question put to ChatGPT:

RFK Jr claims that autism rates in the general population have
increased from around 1 in 10000 to around 1 in 80. Is it likely that
historical rates are a measure of cases of "severe" autism, and that
contemporary rates measure "very mild" cases of autism?Text of the last section of ChatGPT's response:

So, did the actual number of autistic people increase?
There's no consensus. While it's possible that some environmental or genetic factors could contribute to
a real increase in prevalence, the bulk of the increase is widely believed by researchers to be due to:
Broader definitions,
Increased detection,
Shifting diagnostic practices.
In other words, yes-historical rates were mostly counting only the more severe cases, while today's
numbers include a much wider range, including very mild cases.
Let me know if you want citations or a breakdown of autism prevalence trends from major studies.

Not even christians are safe: 'Christian Nationalism is a dangerous ideology that distorts the Gospel and turns Jesus and Christianity into a weapon for power and division instead of a movement towards love and justice. It ... impose(s) that singular belief system in order to be a “good American.”'
Who gets to decide what is Christian? What does religious liberty look like today? With so much unsettling and destabilizing news coming from the new administration in Washington, DC, it’s hard to keep up with and keep track of everything. We believe, however, that a recent decision by the President is a dangerous threat to religious liberty, promotes Christian Nationalism, and all people who care about our democracy need to take note.

We, the Lutheran (ELCA) bishops in Wisconsin and Upper Michigan, are concerned about an executive order signed by President Trump on Feb. 6 that established a new “Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias.” This task force has the duty to “identify any unlawful anti-Christian policies, practices, or conduct by an agency.” While some might think that all Christians would support an effort to root out “anti-Christian bias,” that’s not the case. We believe this executive order is a threat to the religious pluralism enshrined in the Constitution and does not actually protect Christians. Instead, this order aligns the federal government with Christian Nationalism, a dangerous conflation of fundamentalist Christianity, conservative politics, and fierce patriotism that distorts what it means to be an American citizen and an engaged Christian in society.

With this executive order, the federal government has given itself the authority to define what might be considered “anti-Christian,” and therefore also the authority to define what is Christian — a power which belongs to the Church alone, not the federal government. This executive order violates religious freedom, corrupts the separation of church and state, and creates a more hostile environment for Christians and all citizens who believe differently than the current administration and its religious advisors.We feel so strongly that this task force is a threat to our values and our freedom that we wrote a public statement and invited religious leaders and others to sign on (https://www.wichurches.org/articles/religious-liberty). We now have over 250 signers, and we invite all who care about religious freedom and the preservation of our democracy to join us.

Christian Nationalism is a dangerous ideology that distorts the Gospel and turns Jesus and Christianity into a weapon for power and division instead of a movement towards love and justice. It demands that a particular brand of Christianity be privileged by the state and impose that singular belief system in order to be a “good American.” (For more information on Christian Nationalism, check out www.christiansagainstchristiannationalism.org.)

In order to protect religious freedom, the federal government must not align with one religious ideology but rather honor the constitutional mandate to defend space for religious pluralism and ensure that each member of society is free to practice their religion, or no religion, while keeping the peace and working together for the common good. Please join us as we call upon the President of the United States and all elected officials to protect religious freedom in our country and uphold the constitution of the United States of America.

Faithfully,

Bishop Paul Erickson, Greater Milwaukee Synod ELCA

Gabbard will no doubt get right on to firing anyone who participated in the 'Signal' chat - if they violated “basic rules and standards around professionalism.”
“I put out a directive today that they all will be terminated and their security clearances will be revoked,” Gabbard told Fox News on Tuesday.

The chat tool was overseen by the National Security Agency, according to Gabbard. Each intelligence agency has internal collaboration chat tools, former intelligence officials said.

Gabbard said the fired intelligence officers’ conduct represented “an egregious violation of trust” and violated “basic rules and standards around professionalism.”

Maybe SpaceX just needs more money poured into it until they can resolve the design shortcomings? Surely we're not doubting Elon's "Move fast, break things" approach, are we?
This means that, even if SpaceX can get their Starship to work, their Falcon Heavy rocket will actually be cheaper per kilogram to orbit!

What’s more, if you actually look at how expensive Starship launches actually are, its kilogram-to-orbit cost is the same as Saturn V! (read more here).

So, basically, the NASA of over 50 years ago is beating SpaceX at their own game.

Starship is an embarrassment, not just for SpaceX, but for the US. It’s not a revolution; it is a nightmare of twisted monopolistic privatisation and the idiotic inefficiency that comes alongside that. It’s pathetic and dangerous, and we can do so much better.

globally, 60% of gen Z men agree with the statement “we have gone so far in promoting women’s equality that we are discriminating against men”. And 40% of gen Z women agree.

How do any of the members of this administration garner any respect? K47 talking at the level of a 5yo. Or is that the key to connecting with their supporter base - ELI5?
“There’s a very strong man in Canada who said he was going to put a surcharge or a tariff on electricity coming into our country,” Trump said. “He has called and said he’s not going to do that. It would have been a very bad thing if he had done that, but he said he’s not going to do that, and I respect that.”

“When they wake up in the morning, we want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains." "We want to put them in trauma.” -- Russell Vought "I'll take 'Driving Mr Evil' for $1000, Ken" "The desire to take over America." "What makes Vought want to go to work?"
Extract from:
https://www.propublica.org/article/video-donald-trump-russ-vought-center-renewing-america-maga

Another priority, according to Vought, was to “defund” certain independent federal agencies and demonize career civil servants, which include scientists and subject matter experts. Project 2025’s plan to revive Schedule F, an attempt to make it easier to fire a large swath of government workers who currently have civil service protections, aligns with Vought’s vision.

“We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected,” he said. “When they wake up in the morning, we want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains. We want their funding to be shut down so that the EPA can't do all of the rules against our energy industry because they have no bandwidth financially to do so.

Trump published a 1997 account of his comeback appropriately titled Trump: The Art of the Comeback, one of his former creditors, Ben Berzin Jr., wrote to dispute Donald's account of things, observing that, "During the time that I dealt with Mr. Trump, I was continually surprised by his mastery of situational ethics.

MAGA loudly proclaim that Ukraine's best/only option is to let K47 make a deal with Putin. Finland's President strongly disagrees with that plan. "..allow ru to do what it wants to do, then ua, eu, the West and the US has lost. ...let me say very clearly. You cannot trust or make a deal with Putin"
Excerpt from Address by President of the Republic of Finland Alexander Stubb at the Support Ukraine plenary session in Kyiv, Ukraine, on 24 February 2025

https://www.presidentti.fi/en/address-by-president-of-the-republic-of-finland-alexander-stubb-at-the-support-ukraine-summit/

Now, my big point is that there seems to be some misunderstanding about what is going on here. Russia obviously started this war, but remember that it began its acquisition of territory and spheres of interest already in 2008 by attacking Georgia, and then in 2014 by annexing the Crimean Peninsula.
We are now here to commemorate the third anniversary of the beginning of the full-scale war. But the war has been going on for pretty much 11 years, ever since 2014. A lot of people don’t understand that this is not only about Ukraine, but this is also about Europe. This is also about the United States. This is also about international law, and at the end of the day, it’s about the world order.
So, if we now allow Russia to do what it wants to do, in other words, stop the existence of a Ukrainian state, then it’s not only Ukraine that has lost, it’s Europe that has lost, it’s the West that has lost, and also the United States that has lost.
And for those who doubt this, let me say one thing very clearly. You cannot trust Putin. You cannot make a deal with Putin, because that basically means a deal also with China. I also say that for those who doubt, the only way in which Ukraine is going to fully win this war is that we continue the support that we have given you from the beginning. And I also say that if Russia gets what it wants now, trust me, it’s not going to stop with Ukraine.
We know that Putin will continue because his mind is one of imperialism and spheres of interest. So self-evidently, Finland will continue to support Ukraine for as long as it takes. We’re the fifth biggest donor [measured by] GDP per capita.

The last thing I want to think about is some "Daddies" admiring the photos of their daughters all day and fantasizing over Tucker Carlson's "Daddy's home" speech. There are just so many aspects of their attitudes that are despicable. Collectively those attitudes truly are "Deplorable".
Description of part of a speech given by Tucker Carlson at a Trump election rally:
"There has to be a point at which dad comes home. Yeah, that's right. Dad
comes home. And he's pissed. Dad is pissed," said Carlson. "He's not
vengeful. He loves his children. Disobedient as they may be, he loves
them. Because they're his children. They live in his house. But he's very
disappointed in their behavior. And he's going to have to let them know."
The crowd of thousands went wild for his comparison, chanting "Daddy's
home" as Trump took the stage. Talk about weird. And Carlson, again,
didn't stop there.
"When dad gets home, you know what he says? 'You've been a bad girl.
You've been a bad little girl, and you're getting a vigorous spanking right
now. And no, it's not going to hurt me more than it hurts you. No, it's not.
I'm not going to lie. It's going to hurt you a lot more than it hurts me. And
you earned this."

For those aghast at why so few people attempted to help Dr Borrenpohl when she was attacked by the security goons. Comments from some of the attendees who didn't get forcibly removed from the Kootenai County Republican Central Committee legislative town hall. kootenaijournal.com/2025/02/22/d...

Kootenai County resident Ken Scott was seated close to Borrenpohl and
recorded the action on his phone. He referred to the left-leaning activists as
"unhinged lunatics."
Scott told Kootenai Journal that he was happy to hear the state legislators were
following President Trump's agenda. "Always good to have a town hall and hear
from our local legislators," he said. "I liked hearing they are working to get rid of
DEl and finding ways to cut out fraud, waste, and abuse. Glad to hear more
about HB40 which includes many tax cuts to include no longer taxing military
retirement. Thank you Legislators!"Excerpt from Kootenai Journal Article:
"I was planning to listen to our legislators and ask questions," stated Linda
Mitchell, one of the many seniors in the audience. "I was not expecting a large
group of liberals to show up and create total chaos with signs, shouting, and
disruptions."
A business woman from Coeur 'Alene said that groups of people yelled out
whenever they heard something they didn't like. "It was obviously organized and
meant to disrupt."
"We attended to catch up on what's been going on during this legislative
session" shared Corrina. "It was disappointing to witness adults acting so angry

Excerpt from Telegraph.co.uk article:
In response to the new guidance, Matthew Rose, a senior public policy advocate at Human Rights Campaign, told the Washington Post: “It’s deeply concerning that, at a time when thousands of federal health employees are being abruptly laid off without explanation and multiple public health crises break out across the country, HHS is instead focusing its time and taxpayer dollars on anti-science, anti-health PR campaigns.”

Rose added: “This approach is not only ignorant; it’s deliberately harmful.”

DOGE has a concept of a plan for showing the evidence. Maybe in another two weeks?

Can we identify our sources? Sky News? Ok. Interestingly Patrick previously wrote for the Institute of Public Affairs. That article purports to be comparing wholesale prices for the month of January for 2025 vs 2021. So how did those months compare weather-wise? Quite a bit hotter, it turns out.

Another one that ought to go: Posting a lot of disinformation from RW media and influencers. I managed to post a couple of replies disproving a couple of their claims (one about IG Fong fired from USDA and one about Chelsea Clinton taking $84m of USAID money) but then they blocked me.

And perhaps remind them that the "something else" included bringing "consumer prices rapidly down"
Screencap from https://edition.cnn.com/2024/08/15/politics/harris-trump-economy-policies-inflation

During Trump’s economic speech on Wednesday, he said he plans to sign an executive order on his first day back in the Oval Office directing all agency heads and Cabinet secretaries to “use every tool and authority at their disposal to defeat inflation and to bring consumer prices rapidly down.”

“You just watch. They’ll come down, and they’ll come down fast,” he said.

One of his strategies to bring down prices, he said, is to “eliminate every single costly job-killing regulation.” But he didn’t provide specifics during his speech.

Trump has also has repeatedly said he will bring down prices by boosting oil and gas production. But prices at the pump in the US are highly dependent on the global oil market and impacted by things out of the president’s control, like Russia’s war on Ukraine or OPEC’s recent decisions to cut oil production. Plus, US oil production has reached record levels under Biden.

“We’re going to drill, baby, drill. That’s going to bring down prices of everything,” he said on Thursday.

With respect, they keep telling you things that you *shouldn't* believe, but somehow they keep saying it and it keeps getting believed. Are you really going to swallow that anyone thought it was a good idea to spend $50m on condoms? www.snopes.com/news/2025/01...

"Well, we can't say the $50m was going to be spent on basic healthcare, the MAGAs won't want to hear that." "What about booze? No." "Water? No." "Oh my god! Condoms!" "Oh, that's beautiful! The MAGAs will go nuts over that!" *high fives* How do these people repeat these lies with a straight face?
USAID did announce in November 2024 that $50 million would be spent to launch the Gaza Health Recovery Activity (GHRA) in partnership with Anera, a refugee relief organization. The initiative aimed to improve health access in the region after health systems faced an almost complete collapse. Per Anera's description:

Within the next two months the project aims to establish three health clinics in Khan Younis to provide primary healthcare, offer health services to informal shelter communities, and serve people with disabilities; as well as establishing a health clinic in North Gaza. Mobile outreach medical days focusing on rehabilitative and mental health and psychosocial support services for persons with disabilities in Khan Younis are also planned for launch before the end of the year. [...] 

The USAID-funded GHRA will draw on the expertise of Anera and its partners to revitalize primary, secondary, and rehabilitative healthcare. This collaborative effort will ensure vulnerable communities receive the comprehensive care they need. It also will expand access to care, and ensure that services are well-coordinated for communities, many of whom have been frequently displaced over the past year.

Steve Fake, a spokesperson for Anera, told Snopes over email, "No portion of the GHRA includes family planning or condoms."

It is clear, then, that the $50 million was to be used for healthcare services overall, particularly in building health clinics and providing basic care.
