    Last night I was on YouTube listening to Adele’s playlist. At the very bottom was an Adele tribute to CK. I was very, very disappointed. I really like Adele and I was profoundly saddened.

    Turns out that someone generated AIs of Adele, Justin Beeber and Ed Sheeran giving a “tribute” to CK. That’s pretty sick in my opinon. These people make up their own reality and then live and bask in it. The comments to these AI works are nauseating, giving praise the artists who had nothing to do with these AI works.

    I’m surprised YouTube hasn’t taken these videos down.

    I think calling generals fat is partly airing out grievances against General Milley. There’s a lot of rw complaints, including characters like Ezra Cohen-Watnick whining on social media, calling Milley fat and a slob.

    [12:38] And then, speaking of spectacle, the other night ICE repelled down onto a south Chicago apartment building that they claimed was full of Tren de Aragua guys. And the reports of this are brutal. They invaded every single apartment in the building, so there are reports of a couple of American citizens who were held for hours including one who is like in his seventies. They ransacked the places. They took naked children in zip ties and threw them in vans. […]

      US Border Patrol raid sweeps in citizens, families as Chicago crackdown intensifies https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-border-patrol-raid-sweeps-citizens-families-chicago-crackdown-intensifies-2025-10-04/

      […] A DHS spokesperson confirmed the operation, saying it focused on alleged members of Tren de Aragua and that border agents partnered with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

      Authorities arrested at least 37 people on immigration violations, most of whom were Venezuelan, the spokesperson said.

      The spokesperson said two people arrested were alleged members of Tren de Aragua. The department identified six people with criminal histories, ranging from battery to marijuana possession and said two people were suspected of being involved in a shooting.

      The spokesperson declined to say whether agents had warrants to forcibly enter homes, saying that because Tren de Aragua has been labeled a terrorist organization “there are sensitivities on what we can provide without putting people at risk.”

      “This operation was performed in full compliance of the law,” the spokesperson said. […]

        I am wondering … who did the risk assessment that resulted in DHS agents needing to rappel from hovering helicopters (plural?), onto the roof of a small apartment building, in a city, at night. Were all involved—pilots, agents—properly trained and current on their skills (no small and not an inexpensive feat)? What kind of firepower were they expecting (something military)? Or was it, for DHS and ICE, simply “good practice” for later, and something that we-the-public will just have to get used to.

          1) Apparently, this administration is full of people who watched WAY too many action films.

          2) Because of #1, everything is a photo or video op. “SHOCK AND AWE!!”

        Saw on the news the raid on the Chicago apartment building and at some level couldn’t believe it. Its something I would expect Putin to do if they gained in their war against Ukraine. didn’t these idiots think about the children in the building? Taking children outside without their clothing????? Surely there is a law against that. Parading children naked through a street is not exactly what one would call civilized or legal. its what pedophiles do. oh right trump was such good friends with epstein and oh yes pedophile charges or something along that line for him…… so are these guys who pull children naked into he streets pedophiles or are they just having fun. Wonder if the government and individual particpants in this raid will be sued by the children. Well its a start and it would give the public a good look at what went on, not to mention tax payers footing the bill for millions and millions of dollars for settlements.
        At another level it doesn’t surprise me because I remember how children were treated in term one when children were incarcerated. It reminded me of the places people were held in detention camps prior to being sent to the concentration camps. Come to think of it they killed toddlers also in those camps. Guess that might be something for Republicans to look forward to.

      Those idjits wanted to send in the 82nd Airborne. Bad enough they think US cities are training facilities for the military, but that’s an act of war.

    It’s real. A female demonstrator, who ICE claims was armed, was shot by an ICE agent in Chicago, today.
    That’s two shot in Chicago, one killed, and both circumstances are ‘questionable’ by sane people. Meanwhile, the media is parroting whatever ICE says in their press releases.

    After Judge Immergut’s ruling became public, ICE charged out of their compound and attacked protesters, apparently without any provocation whatsoever. It’s speculated that they were attempting to get protesters to fight back and riot, because of a large imbedded presence of cameras, probably Fox news or the like. This is coverage by Oregon Public Broadcasting

    Future Trump pardonee? Has Gym Jordan seen this? Republican Nick Fountain is married with 3 kids and owns two childcare businesses. MAGA family values!

    https://6abc.com/post/skippack-twp-montgomery-county-supervisor-nick-fountain-charged-child-sex-assault/17950162/

    The assaults began when the victim was 9 years old and continued until he was 16 years old, the DA said. It sometimes began with Fountain having them wrestle with their shirts off, police said. It then led to Fountain “sexually touching” the victim and then progressed to oral assaults and attempted anal sex, according to police.

    Fountain has been the vice chair of the Skippack Township Board of Supervisors for the past 12 years. He also unsuccessfully ran for state senate as a Republican in the 24th district in 2022. The 24th, now represented by Tracy Pennycuick, covers a large swath of Montgomery County and parts of Berks County.
