Keir Dullea Gone Tomorrow

On the left, the refurbished Lincoln bathroom. On the right, picture I took in Saddam Hussein's palace in Basra in 2005.

The ‘Varsity Blues’ Felon Who Spent Under $5,000 to Create an Anti-Mamdani Deepfake Video A three-minute video that shows a fake Zohran Mamdani dancing while New York burns is one of many deepfakes surfacing in the New York mayoral race and beyond.

A story for our times.

"I do not think you know what the word means."

Breaking on MSNBC:

Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.

@chronicle.com If you're an academic & want to be completely dispirited, read the Chronicle of Higher Ed. today, where you'll find claims such as "Assigning a traditional essay is unethical in the age of AI" or "The public is giving up on Higher Ed... Digital AI alternatives can change that."

3 Scandals in 4 Days That Would Define Any Other Presidency During the second Trump administration, corruption scandals that would typically define a presidency receive a day or tw

Last week:

-Trump pardoned Binance's founder after a $2B deal with his crypto firm
-Hegseth awards a DoD contract to a Don Jr.-backed firm
-Trump orders his DOJ cronies pay him $230M in "compensation"

We must not become numb to this. https://popular.info/p/3-scandals-in-4-days-that-would-define

Trump: "They have Jasmine Crockett -- a low IQ person. AOC is low IQ. Have her pass the exams I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed. They're cognitive tests. Let AOC go against Trump. Let Jasmine go against Trump. The first couple questions are easy -- a tiger, an elephant, a giraffe ... "

Same in upstate NY. I was selected to a jury. A bible was never a part of it.

Except for Bukele’s buddies in El Salvador. We’re going to release the heads of MS13 from incarceration because Bukele is best buds with them. We bought him cheap, we gave $40bn to Mileli but Bukele just wanted his drug dealing buds

The lede here is what you would see in the first scene of a movie about a serial killer.

Preventing health care costs from exploding?
Reopening the government?
Lowering the cost of groceries?
 
Nope. Building himself a new $300 million ballroom.

Yes, the word "important" does a lot of work though in the academic mind. A good exercise is to talk to parents of students during recruitment days in order to make the discipline relevant to their lives. I can't say I've always convinced them.

A lot of classes are real. It doesn't mean students are engaged or very interested in those classes. A model for universities in which teachers create classes according to what will most interest students? Seems like a shortlived idea.

But every time ppl do that the people in the comment section make fun of them.

weakness to ourselves. 3/3

for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza. This is what he wanted. In Israel, you can read a dozen articles about this in the top newspaper every single day. This strategy, a break w/ the Democrats, preceded Biden by well over a decade. Here we are now & we're adopting Trump revisionism to explain our 2/3

This is just more circular infighting of the left. We have fascism now as a result. Youn have to admire the Trump cult, they know what political power is. Whereas we misread international diplomacy. The right sees the obvious: Netanyahu threw in w/ Endtimers because they were the best bet for 1/2

The responses below show that when it comes to Israel, the left... I have progressives in my feed on Facebook talking about the one good thing Trump did that Biden wouldn't do, a ceasefire.

You're joking I hope.

Not sure why this is funny.

UVa didn't protect its students who were being beaten up by the "fine people" chanting "Jews will not replace us" at the Nazi march several years back. So this fits.

2. Those troops arrived in the District in August 2025, after President Trump decided to flood D.C. neighborhoods with National Guard members from around the country. A few weeks passed, and yet the troops remained. Given the roughly 200-year-old tradition of civilian law enforcement in the United States, Mr. O’Hara was deeply concerned about the normalization of troops patrolling D.C. neighborhoods. And so, he began protesting the Guard members’ presence by walking several feet behind them when he saw them in the community. Using his phone and sometimes a small speaker, he played The Imperial March as he walked, keeping the music at a volume that was audible but not blaring. Mr. O’Hara recorded the encounters and posted the videos on his TikTok account, where millions of people have viewed them. 3. Ohio National Guard member Sgt. Devon Beck was not amused by this satire. On September 11, 2025, Mr. O’Hara saw Sgt. Beck, along with several other Guard members, walking in uniform in the Logan Circle neighborhood, near the intersection of 14th and R Streets NW. Mr. O’Hara calmly walked behind the Guard members, began playing The Imperial March aloud on his phone, and started recording. In less than two minutes, Sgt. Beck turned around and threatened to call D.C. police officers to “handle” Mr. O’Hara if he persisted. Mr. O’Hara continued recording and playing the music. Sgt. Beck contacted the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD). Defendant MPD Officers Brown, Campbell, Reyes-Benigno, and Lopez Martinez came to the scene and, in essence, did what Sgt. Beck had threatened, putting Mr. O’Hara in handcuffs and preventing him from continuing his peaceful protest. 4. The law might have tolerated government conduct of this sort a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. But in the here and now, the First Amendment bars government officials from shutting down peaceful protests, and the Fourth Amendment (along with the District’s prohibition on false arrest) bars groundless s…

ACLU is suing an OH Guard and some MPD cops for detaining him for playing the Imperial March behind the OH Guard.

They're claiming battery against the DC cops who detained the plaintiff.

“U.S. Strikes 2nd Boat in Pacific as Antidrug Operation Expands” New York Times headline, October 23, 2025. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/22/us/politics/trump-drug-boat-strike-colombia.html

Did the New York Times have an editorial meeting where they said something like “these are trustworthy people, we should take their word, put it headlines, that’s good journalism.”

Did they go so far as to say “we should help the Trump administration sell this action”?

Or do they just sorta do it?

The first event in 2029 under a Democrat has to be a Hip Hop bash.

Tell me a scenario in which Trump accepts that his completed ballroom is being used by a Democrat or a Republican he hates. This is, literally, a monument to permanence. It’s not the action of someone planning to leave.

They found an alternate route. I saw them docking with tons of lake drugs this morning on Lake Erie.

Stefanik endorsed, campaigned, and fundraised for George Santos.

Why is Apple, Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, Blackstone, Google, OpenAI, Amazon and others financing the destruction of the WH and desecration of the grounds, something that is infuriating to huge chunk of the American population? Do you hate your customers that much?

Underrated. If they got rid of the entire studio scene, everyone would've loved it.
