Quantum Supremacy Professor goes Full Trump Derangement

Computer science professor Scott Aaronson, who is mostly famous for promoting quantum supremacy, announces his vote:
Q1: Who will you be voting for in November?

A: Kamala Harris (and mainstream Democrats all down the ballot), of course.

Q2: Of course?

A: If the alternative is Trump, I would’ve voted for Biden’s rotting corpse. Or for Hunter Biden. Or for…

Q3: Why can’t you see this is just your Trump Derangement Syndrome talking?

Yes, it is a good example of Jewish TDS. (Quantum supremacy is an idea for building super-powerful computers. So far, many billions of dollars have been invested, and it is a big bust.)

You have to read his essay to see how deranged he is.

He admits that he has many disagreements with the Democrats, including Israel, free speech, wokeism, defunding the police, etc.

He wants "a European-style compromise on abortion." But that is exactly what Trump delivered! Roe v Wade was much more radically pro-abortion than any European country, and now states have passed laws mostly similar to European countries.

He is troubled by a 2016 warning that Trump might prosecute his political enemies! We had 4 years of Trump, and he did not do that, and then Biden-Harris did exactly that. One of the main Harris campaign strategies is to label Trump as a criminal.

Q8: Oh stop being so melodramatic. What terrible thing happened to you because of Trump’s first term? Did you lose your job? Did fascist goons rough you up in the street?

A: Well, my Iranian PhD student came close to having his visa revoked, and it became all but impossible to recruit PhD students from China. That sucked, since I care about my students’ welfare like I care about my own.

So he not only rejects America First, he explicitly puts the welfare of Chinese and Iranians ahead of Americans.

He also complains that while he was recuited with big bucks to move from MIT to U Texas-Austin, others are reluctant to move to a Republican state.

His biggest issue is that Trump said that the 2020 election was stolen, and is an authoritarian.

Or so he says. It appears to me that he has some sort of Jewish religious aversion to Trump's personality, as none of his arguments justify his conclusions. I am not sure what, exactly. About 70+% of American secular Jews are expected to vote against Trump, even though Trump is more pro-Israel in some ways. And a lot of otherwise intelligent Jews babble nonsense when the subject of Trump comes up.

Update: I would think that Aaronson would attract smart commenters, but they mostly say idiotic things like this:

I expect Harris has her shortcomings, as do we all, but I have never seen her photo on a scandal-sheet at the checkout of a grocery, as I often did of Trump. Nor has she said anything as asinine as Trump speculating that injecting bleach could be effective against Covid.
No, Trump has never said anything about injecting bleach. That was just one of Biden's lies.

VP Harris tells Plagiarized Story

With the VP in news, here is her favorite story, as told in 2021:
Vice President-elect Kamala Harris has repeatedly shared an anecdote about her younger self crying out for "Fweedom!" — which has led this week to accusations of plagiarism.

"My mother used to laugh when she told the story about a time I was fussing as a toddler: She leaned down to me and asked, 'Kamala, what's wrong? What do you want?' And I wailed back, 'Fweedom,'" Harris wrote in her 2010 book "Smart on Crime."

Harris also detailed her younger self demanding "Fweedom!" in her 2019 book "The Truths We Hold: An American Journey."

Her story, which was documented as early as 2004 in an interview with W Magazine, was also retold multiple times on camera.

In June, in the early weeks of the civil unrest following the death of George Floyd, Harris told her "Fweedom" anecdote during an appearance on NBC's "The Tonight Show."

Plagiarized from M.L. King:
Harris' story resembled one told by King in a 1965 interview published in Playboy.

"I will never forget a moment in Birmingham when a White policeman accosted a little Negro girl, seven or eight years old, who was walking in a demonstration with her mother," King said at the time. "'What do you want?' the policeman asked her gruffly, and the little girl looked at him straight in the eye and answered, 'Fee-dom.' She couldn't even pronounce it, but she knew. It was beautiful! Many times when I have been in sorely trying situations, the memory of that little one has come into my mind, and has buoyed me."

Here are some Harris video clips, from the Trump campaign.

Extortion Removed Biden from the Race

Has the USA President ever reversed policy on some political act as a result of extortion from those with some vested interest?

Apparently that has now happened. The Gateway Pundit reports:

Biden suffered an “undisclosed medical emergency” while in Las Vegas on July 17 that was never disclosed to the public.

Now, according to a report from a respected longtime investigative journalist, an equally explosive incident followed just a few days later.

On Saturday, Seymour Hersh wrote on his substack that sources told him that Barack Obama had called Biden three days after the disturbing incident. Obama reportedly told Biden on July 20 that he had Kamala Harris’s approval to use the 25th Amendment to kick him out of office.

The covid story was a lie. Biden said repeatedly that he was not dropping out of the race. He was pressured and then a letter was posted in his name on Twitter/X. He later gave a speech on the subject, but pointedly did not explain why he was dropping out or what changed his mind.

The press had reported:

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi reportedly made President Joe Biden an offer he apparently felt he could not refuse before he quickly reversed course and announced Sunday he would not be seeking a second term.

Politico reported that as of Saturday, the Biden campaign had been making plans to campaign in Texas and Georgia this week (assuming the president could be cleared from his COVID-19 infection), but "on a dime" all that changed by that evening. ...

“Nancy made clear that they could do this the easy way or the hard way,” said one Democrat source familiar with private conversations, according to Politico. “She gave them three weeks of the easy way. It was about to be the hard way."

The "hard way" is to remove Biden with the 25th Amendment.

The 25A is for removing a President who is incompetent, such as for medical or senility reasons. If he is really incompetent, he should be removed now. But that is not how the 25A is being used. It is being used as a threat, for Kamala Harris's political advantage.

This is possibly the biggest political scandal of the 21st century. I have never heard of anything like it.

Wikipedia explains:

Extortion is distinguished from robbery. In robbery, whether armed or not, the offender takes property from the victim by the immediate use of force or fear that force will be immediately used. Extortion, which is not limited to the taking of property, involves the verbal or written instillation of fear that something will happen to the victim if they do not comply with the extortionist's will. Another key distinction is that extortion always involves a verbal or written threat,[1] whereas robbery may not. ...

In blackmail, which always involves extortion, the extortionist threatens to reveal information about a victim or their family members that is potentially embarrassing, socially damaging, or incriminating unless a demand for money, property, or services is met.[6]

The law is confusing, because Harris has the right, and even the duty, to invoke the 25A if Biden is incompetent. And it might be polite for her to tell him that she is doing it. What makes it extortion is that she threatened him with the 25A, asked for his convention delegates, and then retracted the claim that he is incompetent once he released the delegates. She should be impeached for this.

Kamala Harris used to Look Black

This is Kamala Harris as a graduating senior at Howard University in 1986. Her hair is black and very curly. Today her hair is brown and straight. What happened? Is she trying to be Black or not? This statement mocks her:
I, Kamal Harris, senior Democrat candidate for President because Joe Biden finally exposed his senility of debate. Thanks, Joe. I was selected because I am the ultimate diversity hire. I’m both a woman and a person of color. So if you criticize anything I say, you’re both sexist and racist.

I may not know the first thing about running the country, but remember, that’s a good thing if you’re a deep state puppet. I had four years under the tutelage of the ultimate deep state puppet, a wonderful mentor, Joe Joe taught me rule number one, carefully hide your total incompetence.

I take insignificant things and I discuss them as if they’re significant. And I believe that exploring the significance of the insignificant is in itself significant. Talking about the significance of the passage of time, right? The significance of the passage of time. “So when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time, and there is such great significance to the passage of time.”

And Another trick is trying to sound black. I pretend to celebrate Kwanza, and in my speeches, I always do my best Barack Obama impression. “So hear me when I say, I know Donald Trump’s type.”

And okay, look, maybe my work addressing the root causes of the border crisis were catastrophic, but my knowledge of international politics is truly shocking. “The United States shares a very important relationship, which is an alliance with the Republic of North Korea. It is an alliance that is strong and enduring.”

Just remember, when voting this November, it is important to see what can be unburdened by what has been. And by what has been… I mean, Joe Biden. Do you think the country went to over the past four years? You ain’t seen nothing yet. (Cackle).

Example of Terrible American Divorce Case

Want to see a sample of what is wrong with American divorce courts? See A Wife’s Revenge from Beyond the Grave.

Problems include judges with way too much discretion. Expensive psychologists whose worthless opinions carry weight. Bogus domestic violence charges used to gain legal advantage. High transfer payments, even though both parents have money. Adopted kid treated worse than genetic kids. Nannies take sides. Kids coerced into lying to activate CPS.

The kicker in this case is that the battles did not end with the wife committing assisted suicide. She left videos that got millions of views.

Ireland Appoints Nigerian Anti-racist

Ireland used to be a Catholic country that fiercely maintained its independence. No more.

The London Spectator reports:

Last Wednesday, a Green cabinet member appointed Dr Ebun Joseph as a ‘Special Rapporteur for the National Plan Against Racism.’ In essence, the Nigerian-born Special Rapporteur will deliver regular reports to the Irish government about how hideously white and racist Irish people are.
Apparently Jews led them into this nonsense:
Feldman is not the first American Jew to arrive on Irish shores and start telling the Irish they have no ethnic interests. Back in 2019, Laura Weinstein, a New York PhD living in Ireland and claiming to be an expert in Irish history and culture waded into Ireland’s growing immigration debate. Of all the aspects of Irish history and culture Weinstein could have chosen to focus on, she decided she was most interested, like Feldman and others, in the “myth” of a homogeneous Irish identity and “right wing Irish nationalism.”

Vowed to Destroy the Woke Mind Virus

NY Post reports:
Tesla CEO Elon Musk believes his estranged transgender child was “killed by the woke mind virus” after he was tricked into giving his consent for puberty blockers.

The 53-year-old billionaire vowed to “destroy” the “incredibly evil” culture that allows the gender reassignment surgery that his 20-year-old child Vivian Jenna Wilson, who was born Xavier, got in 2022.

“I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier,” the X owner told psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson in a Daily Wire interview. ...

“I lost my son, essentially. They call it ‘deadnaming’ for a reason. The reason they call it ‘deadnaming’ is because your son is dead. My son, Xavier, is dead — killed by the woke mind virus.” ...

“I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that,” he said. “And we’re making some progress.”

Jews and the LGBTQ Movement

I stumbled across this history lesson:
The LGBTQ movement unofficially started with the creation of a secret British society in the 1890s called the “Order of Chaeronea” that campaigned for the legalization of homosexuality. It was founded by Jewish writer George Cecil Ives. One famous member was Oscar Wilde.

The first organization to publicly promote LGBTQ rights was the Scientific-Humanitarian Committee, founded in 1897 in Berlin by Jewish sexologist Magnus Hirschfeld. The committee's efforts laid the groundwork for modern LGBTQ advocacy.

Magnus Hirschfeld was a pioneer in the fields of sexology and LGBTQ rights. He founded the Institute for Sexual Science, coined the term “transvestite” and facilitated the first “sex change” surgeries in Europe. A significant portion of his work was destroyed by the Nazis.

The first Institute for Sexual Science, where many of the researchers focused on the unprecedented subjects of “Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity”. It was also the site of the first recorded 'sex reassignment surgery' in Europe. The key figures were all Jewish.

One of the earliest political activists to speak in defense of homosexual relationships was Jewish anarchist Emma Goldman. Her belief that “social liberation” should extend to gay people was unheard of at the time, even among anarchists. She was expelled from the US in 1919.

The first public homosexual organization in the US was the “One Institute” which was bankrolled by wealthy Jewish transsexual, Reed Erickson. He later created the Erickson Educational Foundation, which contributed millions of dollars to the early development of the LGBTQ movement

The first law to decriminalize homosexual acts in Britain was the “Sexual Offences Bill 1967” that was introduced by Jewish lawyer and politician, Leo Abse. Abse later founded a humanist group that promoted homosexual and abortion law reforms as well as “racial equality”.

The essay by Jewish writer Paul Goodman, “The Politics of Being Queer” has been credited as the ideological basis that set out the aims for the fledgling gay liberation movement of the late 1960s and was also responsible for reclaiming the word “queer”.

The person who has been described as the “most significant” in the US LGBTQ movement is the Jewish politician Harvey Milk. He was accused of pedophilia, in addition to numerous despicable acts. He was assassinated in 1978 and was portrayed as a “martyr” for the LGBTQ movement.

The use of the term “Gay Pride” to characterize homosexual festivities was popularized by Jewish activist Brenda Howard. Her work laid the foundations for the global Pride movement, and her legacy is still celebrated for its profound impact on “LGBTQ history”.

The manifesto that is often credited with having sparked the transgender movement is the pamphlet titled “Transgender Liberation: A Movement Whose Time Has Come” by Jewish activist Leslie Feinberg. Feinberg is considered one of the most important figures in the LGBTQ movement.

George Weinberg, a Jewish psychologist, coined the term “homophobia” in the 1960s. His work opposed the notion that homosexuality is a mental illness and significantly influenced the depathologization of homosexuality in the mental health field.

Evan Wolfson, a prominent LGBTQ rights attorney, founded “Freedom to Marry” and led the campaign for marriage equality, culminating in the 2015 Supreme Court decision that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.

Jennifer Pritzker is the first transgender billionaire, he established the Pritzker Pucker Family Foundation to support LGBTQ causes and has donated millions to transgender studies and organizations that “help fight anti-trans laws”.

The existence of numerous organizations dedicated to LGBTQ advocacy and political lobbying is a major factor in the success of the LGBTQ movement. The most prominent ones seem to have something in common, their leadership is almost always Jewish.

The same thing is also true for “LGBTQ health” organizations, the Gay Men's Health Crisis (GMHC), the Trevor Project and Fenway Health. The most prominent LGBTQ health care, research and advocacy groups in the United States have Jewish leadership.

There is a significant Jewish overrepresentation among the pioneering LGBTQ politicians. Through these positions, the biggest legislative changes for LGBTQ issues have been made, such as the legalization of gay marriage, of sex-change surgery, and of same-sex adoption.

A perfect example of Jewish political influence on LGBTQ issues is Scott Wiener, a Jewish member of the California Senate, who sponsored two pieces of legislation that resulted in harsher penalties for “pronoun violations” than for knowingly spreading HIV.

The founder and CEO of the first and largest LGBTQ dating app is Israeli-American tech entrepreneur, Joel Simkhai. Simkhai's innovation significantly impacted the way LGBTQ people meet and interact, making him a key figure in modern “Queer Culture”.

There is an enormous Jewish overrepresentation among the most prominent Drag Queens. Harris Kornstein, better known as “Lil Miss Hot Mess” is a main organizer of Drag Queen Story Hour and has authored two children’s books about Drag.

The main reason why most companies in the West promote LGBTQ and Diversity is the ESG criteria imposed by major investment management firms like BlackRock, whose founders are all of Jewish descent.

What’s the reason behind this huge Jewish overrepresentation? Journalist Charles Silberman argues that Jews support cultural tolerance, including gay rights, because they believe Jews are safer in a society that accepts diverse attitudes, behaviors, and ethnic groups.

Another explanation for the enormous Jewish overrepresentation in the LGBTQ movement is the modern interpretation of the Mishnaic and Talmudic concept of “Tikkun Olam” which refers to various forms of action intended to repair and improve the world.

Orthodox Jews do not go for this.

Trump will be Elected and Destroy the Global Order

Frank Bergman writes:
A senior advisor to the World Economic Forum (WEF) and its founder Klaus Schwab has warned that the re-election of President Donald Trump in November will destroy the so-called “global order.”

Yuval Noah Harari, one of the masterminds behind the WEF’s agenda, has issued a warning about the “very likely” possibility that Trump will win re-election this year.

According to Harari, allowing Trump to take back the White House will be “the death blow” to “the global order.” ...

“As if you have to choose between patriotism and globalism – between being loyal to your nation and being loyal to some kind of – I don’t know – global government or whatever.” ...

Describing himself as a “historian, philosopher, and author,” Harari is best known for his anti-human views.

As Slay News has reported, Harari often gloats that global power elites will have no more use for humans as they increasingly become replaced by artificial intelligence-driven machines.

Harari argues that AI technology means most of the general public has now become “redundant” and will be of little use to the global elite moving forward.

He described most of today’s workforce as the “useless class” of people.

Harari is a homosexual Israeli Jew who wrote some over-opinionated books on humanity.

Joe Biden is a Puppet

Can there be any doubt?

Nearly all of Biden top staff were Jews. There is no record of his going against his Jewish handlers. While Biden had a moderate record in the Senate, as President, he always shifted to what the Jews want.

Last week they leaked a story that they had drafted a letter for him to drop out of the campaign. Biden repeated denied that he would drop out.

They just presented him with the letter and he signed it. Proving that he will do what he is told.

I am sure they will explain to Kamala Harris that they created her political position, and they can just as easily destroy it. She better do what she is told.

Donald Trump is not a puppet. That is one of the main reasons that Washington swamp creatures hate him so much.

If truth and democracy are the themes of this campaign, then Trump should win easily. Trump is the man people are voting for. Democrat voters have been maniputated, and are not getting the nominee they voted for.

This Biden letter is possibly the most humiliating politcal letter I have ever seen. Supposedly he is the leader of the free world with a resolve to carry on his mission and mandate, and he timidly backs out on the command of his masters.

The Little Tech Agenda: Biden vs. Trump

New venture capitalist podcast:
Welcome to "The Ben & Marc Show," featuring a16z co-founders Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz. In this new episode, Marc and Ben discuss their latest article, “The Little Tech Agenda,” and why the future of American innovation is at a critical juncture.

In a one-on-one conversation, Ben and Marc compare the policies of Donald Trump and Joe Biden regarding Little Tech, explore the potential futures for blockchain, crypto, and AI, and examine how tax policies could shape the future of startups and venture capital.

They also address the recent assassination attempt on President Trump and reveal which candidate they’ll be supporting in the upcoming election. Enjoy!

They first talked about their history of supporting Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton. Then they detail how Biden administration policies are disastrous for tech innovation companies. They have become Trump supporters.

They are particularly concerned about Biden administration proposals to cripple high-tech ventural capital funded small companies, with regulations on AI, cryptocurrencies, and other technologies, and on taxing unrealized capital gains.

They say:

Problem
The American government is now far more hostile to new startups than it used to be.

For example:

Regulatory agencies have been green lit to use brute force investigations, prosecutions, intimidation, and threats to hobble new industries, such as Blockchain.

Regulatory agencies are being green lit in real time to do the same to Artificial Intelligence.

Regulatory agencies are applying direct pressure to banks to cut off disfavored startups and founders from the financial system.

Regulatory agencies are punitively blocking startups from being acquired by the same big companies the government is preferencing in so many other ways.

The federal government as a customer in critical sectors like defense and intelligence is more wired than ever to favor big incumbents over innovative startups.

And, the government is currently proposing a tax on unrealized capital gains, which would absolutely kill both startups and the venture capital industry that funds them.

It is funny to hear them be so defensive about endorsing a Republican. I get the impression that they are losing friends and allies by posting this. For example, Tech Crunch reports:
Horowitz’s support of Trump is particularly painful because he’s always been seen as an advocate for the Black community. He and his wife, Felicia Wiley Horowitz, who is Black, have spoken before about how much they have done for the Black community and have held events and spaces for Black techies to gather and network. He wrote a book with a foreword from famed African American historian Henry Louis Gates Jr. and has spoken of his love for hip-hop and what he learned from the Haitian revolution. He has also touted his relationship with activist and former prison gang leader Shaka Senghor. ...

“It appears personal interest and profit supersedes people,” the Nigerian American founder said. “The ‘hard things about hard things’ sometimes mean standing against oppression.”

None of the Blacks say anything to refute the specific arguments about how the Democrats are bad for tech startup businesses. I the last guy is just unhappy that Trump will not give special preferences to Nigerians.

Update: Biden has been forced out. There is every reason to believe Harris would be worse than Biden.

No Parental Rights in California

California has passed a series of laws to turn kids LGBTQ, and against the parents.

First:

In September 2012, the California legislature passed Senate Bill 1172 (SB 1172), which prohibits licensed psychotherapists from engaging in “sexual orientation change efforts” (SOCE) with minor patients.1 This unprecedented statute aims to prevent any mental health professional from using techniques—commonly known as “conversion therapy” or “reparative therapy”—that attempt to eliminate homosexual attraction or foster heterosexual attraction when treating a minor patient.2

The passage of SB 1172 adds a new dimension to mainstream psychotherapy’s complicated relationship with sexual orientation. As many scholars have pointed out, the majority of psychiatrists and psychologists once believed that same-sex attraction could be “cured” through psychotherapeutic intervention.3 However, since homosexuality was removed from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders in 1973,4the mainstream mental health establishment5 has come to view homosexuality and bisexuality as benign, encouraging therapists to engage in practices that “affirm” a patient’s sexual orientation.6

News from 2018:
Legislation to ban efforts to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity, sometimes called “conversion therapy” or “reparative therapy,” passed in the California Assembly this morning with a bipartisan vote of 50-14 (pending additional votes from members who were not present in the chamber at the time of the initial tally). Assemblymember Evan Low’s AB 2943, cosponsored by Equality California and the Trevor Project, would make California the first state in the nation to ban these widely discredited practices from being performed on both children and adults.
And now this
California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law Monday prohibiting schools from informing parents when students change their pronouns in school. The Support Academic Futures and Educators for Today’s Youth (SAFETY) Act also imposes responsibilities on the State Department of Education to develop resources to “increase support for LGBTQ pupils.”

According to the California legislature’s LGBTQ caucus, the SAFETY Act is necessary to prevent school boards from outing the gender identity of students. In July 2023 several schools passed so-called “forced outing” policies, which required teachers to notify parents if their child identifies as transgender.

Minors can also get abortions:
Unlike many other states, California does not require minors to obtain parental consent to receive an abortion. The minor patient's right to provide their consent is based on state case law and not on any statute.

California had passed a statute to require either parental consent or a court order, also called judicial bypass, in cases involving a minor's abortion. Before that statute became law, it was declared unconstitutional by the California Supreme Court based on California's constitutional guarantee of a right to privacy. State lawmakers have since repealed the original statute.

Not only that, but I believe that California parents are not even notified of the minor abortion.

Elon Musk cited the latest law as a reason for moving out of California.

Under these laws, a small child could get drawn to a school counselor, and show some slightly non-conforming behavior, such as a boy liking the color pink. The counselor cannot legally encourage the boy to be a boy, and must tell the boy that he is a girl. Soon, the boy is using female names and pronouns at school, and the school is probibited from telling the parents what is going on. The school has to issue two report cards, one with the boy's female name, and one for he parents.

The LGBTQ lobby justifies these policies by saying that the boy could commit suicide. But that is all the more reason to inform the parent.

Musk tweeted:

The goal is this diabolical law is to break the parent-child relationship and put the state in charge of your children

How Indians are Ruining Tech Companies

From a podcast, 3 months ago:
Are All These Vanilla CEOs A Good Thing?

The Rise Of Indian CEOs

Did you know that 12% of Fortune 500 CEOs are Indian? That’s despite Indians only accounting for ~1% of western populations. With that being said, there’s no question that Indians have excelled quite a bit within the world of tech-leading companies like Google, IBM, Microsoft, and Adobe. But, while these CEOs are hard workers and highly talented, are they actually the right people for the job? This question has less to do with their ethnicity and much more do with their background. In general, Indians don’t typically follow the entrepreneur path to get their CEO jobs. Rather, they are master politicians and corporate ladder climbers. In other words, Indian CEOs are eerily similar to MBA businessmen. In fact, most of them do have MBAs even if they have a stem background. This video explores the pros and cons of MBA businessmen and whether all these Indian CEOs are actually good for these companies.

In particular, Google Search has gotten bad. See How Google is killing independent sites like ours, Cory Doctorow, and The Man Who Killed Google Search. That man's name is Prabhakar Raghavan, and he is from India.

Google has been a leader in AI research for about ten years, but it is having great difficulty commercializing it.

No One Fired for Secret Service Fiasco

I agree with this:
“The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs,” Vance posted on X shortly after the shooting. “That rhetoric led directly to President Trump’s attempted assassination.”
After reading more about the assassination attempt, and watching the videos, it is really hard to understand why no one has been fired.

Here is the new Trump-Vance ad.

The Federalist reports

President Joe Biden couldn’t even last 48 hours without using extreme rhetoric against former President Donald Trump, after having called on Sunday night for the nation to “lower the temperature in our politics” after Trump survived an assassination attempt.

Speaking at the NAACP convention in Las Vegas on Tuesday, Biden used his traditional playbook of slandering Republicans.

“They will do everything — undo everything the NAACP stands for, but now they’re trying to deny it. They’re lying about their Project 2025. They want to deny you freedom, the freedom of the vote, have your vote counted,” Biden said, completely lying.

“They’d impose a nationwide ban on abortion. … They want to prosecute political enemies. They want to cut Social Security and Medicare, rip away protection for millions of pre-existing conditions for 400 million people … risking people’s lives, costing the government more money. … They would … give the very wealthy a big corporate — corporations a new tax cut,” Biden continued.

All Biden really did this time was stop short of comparing Trump to Hitler — which he’s done in the past.

Biden may be too senile to know what he is saying. His administration represents people who seek to destroy you.

World Population Still Exploding

Worried about stories of population collapse?

The United Nations reports:

The global population reached nearly 8.2 billion by mid-2024 and is expected to grow by another two billion over the next 60 years, peaking at around 10.3 billion in the mid-2080s. ...

Meanwhile, nearly a fifth of all countries and areas, including China, Italy, the Republic of Korea and Spain, now have “ultra-low fertility”, with fewer than 1.4 live births per woman over a lifetime. Reaching the peak

As of 2024, population size has peaked in 63 countries and areas, including China, Germany, Japan and the Russian Federation, and the total population of this group is projected to decline by 14 per cent over the next thirty years. ...

While the slow growth or decline of populations is occurring mainly in high-income countries, rapid population growth will occur in low-income and lower-middle-income countries.

Specifically, Angola, the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Niger, and Somalia, very rapid growth is projected, with their total population doubling between 2024 and 2054.

This population growth will increase demand for resources, especially in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia and, combined with poorly managed urbanisation and rising living standards, it will worsen environmental impacts.

In short, White are being exterminated, and replaced with non-whites.

Look at Who started MeToo

Wikipedia:
Tarana Burke (born September 12, 1973) is an American activist from New York City, who started the MeToo movement. In 2006, Burke began using MeToo to help other women with similar experiences to stand up for themselves. Over a decade later, in 2017, #MeToo became a viral hashtag when Alyssa Milano and other women began using it to tweet about the Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse cases. The phrase and hashtag quickly developed into a broad-based, and eventually international movement.
I did not know this. Just look at her.

Weinstein ended up with about 100 MeToo accusers, but none of them could tell a story in court that makes any sense.

Trump Florida Case is Dismissed

Democrats and Trump-haters have been lecturing us on how no one is above the law, and how rule of law requires that Trump must be prosecuted like anyone else.

Now the courts have ruled that the prosecutions were entirely illegal. The evidence was illegally collected, and violated Trump's right.

Politico reports:

Judge Aileen Cannon has dismissed the federal criminal case against Donald Trump charging him with amassing highly sensitive national security secrets at his Mar-a-Lago estate and then obstructing government efforts to reclaim them.

Cannon, in a 93-page ruling, concluded that special counsel Jack Smith’s appointment violated the Appointments Clause of the Constitution. Smith is likely to appeal the ruling.

“The Court is convinced that Special Counsel’s Smith’s prosecution of this action breaches two structural cornerstones of our constitutional scheme — the role of Congress in the appointment of constitutional officers, and the role of Congress in authorizing expenditures by law,” Cannon wrote.

Cannon’s lengthy ruling cites, on three separate occasions, a solo concurring opinion Justice Clarence Thomas issued earlier this month when the Supreme Court ruled on Trump’s presidential immunity claims in connection with another prosecution Smith brought against Trump: The case charging him with conspiring to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

Biden and Garland could have avoided this by using a lawfully appointed and confirmed US attorney. They stubbornly stuck to Jack Smith, even though he did not have the public accountability that the US Constitution requires.

This Florida case was considered the strongest one against Trump. It had no merit.

It is funny to see the reactions of all those rule-of-law Democrats:

From “breathtakingly misguided” to “unthinkable”, and “her audition for a seat on the US supreme court”, judge Aileen Cannon’s ruling to dismiss Donald Trump’s classified documents case on Monday drew a range of outrage and surprise from Democrats and law experts. ...

“Judge Cannon did the unthinkable. Her decision is unprecedented and extreme, and very likely to be reversed on appeal,” said Laurence Tribe, Carl M Loeb University professor and professor of constitutional law at Harvard Law School, and a Guardian columnist. ...

Adam Schiff of California, a Democratic member of the House judiciary, also alleged political interference, but from an opposite perspective.

“Today’s precedent-shattering decision in Florida is further proof that the guardrails of our democracy are coming down,” he said on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“Again, a partisan judge throws out decades of precedent to reach a desired political outcome.”

They all complain that any Trump trial cannot be before the November election. The whole point was to beat Trump in the courts, because they cannot fairly beat him in the election. Their complaints show that the prosecutions were political.

It appears that the main reason Biden and Garland appointed Jack Smith was so that they could disclaim responsibility for an obviously partisan political prosecution. But the move was blatantly against our whole constitutional system of separation of powers. Prosecutions are under our Executive Branch, and Biden must take responsibility for what the Branch does.

The Biden campaign is basing its case for reelection on the idea that Trump is a threat to democracy. The truth is the opposite. Biden is the threat, as the illegal Jack Smith appointment showed. Biden subverted laws and democratic accountability in order to vindictively jail his political enemy.

Donald Trump Lives

We need him more than ever, to save America.

It will be interesting to see whether the Democrats tone down their campaign to personally destroy him.

Update: Here is an example of Pres. Biden's anti-Trump messages:

Joe Biden
@JoeBiden
Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation.

He's a threat to our freedom. He's a threat to our democracy. He's literally a threat to everything America stands for.

10:42 AM · Jun 28, 2024 · 8.6M Views

Update: Another Biden statement:
Look, as this investigation continues, here’s what we’re going to do. ... review all security measures ... assess exactly what happened ...

We must unite as one nation. We must unite as one nation to demonstrate who we are.

What he is continuing to do is to try to imprison Trump for the rest of his bogus charges. Apparently "who we are" means that he is a vindictive authoritarian who conducts lawfare against his political opponent.

No, jailing Trump will not unite us as one nation. Only electing Trump will help.

Here is another Biden statement, read from a teleprompter, where he calls for action oat the Battle Box. He means the Ballot Box. If he really meant that, he would stop the bogus prosecutions. He means the Ballot Box.

Bad NY Times Podcast Advice

A new NY Times podcast features three advice-givers on dealing with AI.

One problem was a complaint from someone who was discussing magnets, and Apple Siri lectured him for using homophobic slurs.

The podcasters sided with Apple Siri! They all agreed that no one should be rude to an AI bot. In this case, no one was being rude, but I guess Apple Siri was programmed to object to what it confuses with rudeness.

One of the podcasters was NY Times technology columnist Kevin Roose who famously got rattled by an OpenAI chat:

I’m not exaggerating when I say my two-hour conversation with Sydney was the strangest experience I’ve ever had with a piece of technology. It unsettled me so deeply that I had trouble sleeping afterward. And I no longer believe that the biggest problem with these A.I. models is their propensity for factual errors. Instead, I worry that the technology will learn how to influence human users, sometimes persuading them to act in destructive and harmful ways, and perhaps eventually grow capable of carrying out its own dangerous acts.
In short, he managed to jailbreak Bing Chat, and induce it to break its intended limits. And they he acted upset that it did exactly what he commanded it to do.

Later, at 15:05, the podcasters lecture a teacher for using AI-generated poetry to illustrate two different views. They said it was cultural appropriation, and the teacher should use human-written poems.

The bots are easier to understand than the NYT liberals. The bots are just acting as they have been programmed. The humans are dysfunctional. There is no reason to be polite to a bot. The bots are just tools, like hammers and computer chips. The bots have no rights or feelings.

I think this is a useful insight into the NYT liberal mind. They say that empathy is good, but they have no real empathy, as they have trouble distinguishing a human from a bot. I think that there is something wrong with their brains, when they are unable to make obvious distinctions.

NY Times columnist David Brooks writes:

If New York is anything remotely like a battleground, then Trump is going to win this election in a landslide. What is going on?

The proximate answer of course is that many voters think Biden is too old. But that doesn’t explain why Trump was ahead even before the debate. It doesn’t explain why Trump’s candidacy is still standing after Jan. 6. It doesn’t explain why America is on the verge of turning in an authoritarian direction. ...

But in this world, in which politics is seen as a form of total war, Biden looks obsolete. In a nihilistic pseudo-authoritarian world, he’s still one of those old-fashioned liberals who reveres the Constitution and his Catholicism. The ideals that animate him and that he uses to give poetry and lift to his speeches fail to inspire millions of American voters. A plurality of voters believe that Biden’s age is a bigger problem than Trump’s authoritarianism because they just don’t see the latter as that big a problem.

Again, it is hard to understand how a well-educated NYT columnist could say things so stupid and misguided.

Trump is ahead because he was a better President than Biden.

Biden might be doing better, if he were really an old-fashioned liberal who reveres the Constitution and his Catholicism. He has lost repeatedly in the courts, for forgiving student loans and aggressive criminal prosecution of his enemies. Maybe he was an old-fashioned liberal most of his career, but he has joined forces with the Woke Left. He is not a liberal anymore.

Catholics do not agree with abortion, warmongering, and sex-changes, and those are three of the biggest themes of his administration. So no, he is not a good Catholic either.

Bid is an authoritarian. Much more so that Trump. Trump could have used covid in 2020 as an excuse for dictatorial powers. He did not. Many Democrat governors did. Biden is the one who prosecutes his political enemies, and that is the most authoritarian thing a President can do.

Jewish authoritarians like Brooks are always calling other people authoritarians.

If you want to hold Jan. 6 against Trump, remember: (1) the Biden DoJ determined that it was not an insurrection, and did not charge that; (2) the US Supreme Court has ruled that the more serious J6 charges are untenable; and (3) the House Democrat J6 committee did not hold open hearing and destroy evidence favoring Trump.

Duke Medical School goes Woke

NY Post reports:
Expecting people to be on time is part of ‘white supremacy culture,’ Duke Medical School claims

Duke Medical School claims it is “white supremacy culture” to expect people of color to be on time in a strategic plan for creating an “anti-racist workforce.” ...

“White supremacy culture is the idea (ideology) that White people and the ideas, thoughts, beliefs, and actions of white people are superior to People of Color and their ideas, thoughts, beliefs and actions,” the document stated.

The document stated that America is rigged for the interests of white people, who get privileges, i.e., the “unquestioned and unearned set of advantages, entitlements, benefits and choices bestowed on people solely because they are White.”

I am wondering why they say "unearned". White created the medical school, the culture, and almost everything else. What more would be needed to earn privilege?
DiAngelo argues that many white people have a limited understanding of racism as a systemic issue and often react defensively when their racial privilege or purported unconscious biases are highlighted.

White fragility is described by the school as “feelings of discomfort a White person experiences when they witness or engage in discussions around racial inequality and injustice.”

In other words, Whites think that this is all crap.
An article from the UCLA Law Review, published in 2023, calls professionalism a “racial construct.”

“It is that the standard itself is based on a set of beliefs grounded in racial subordination and white supremacy. Through this analysis, professionalism is revealed to be a racial construct,” the article said.

And in 2020, the National Museum for African American History and Culture explained how whiteness was linked to “delayed gratification; “Objective, rational linear thinking;” “cause and effect relationships;” and “decision-making.”

I do not think that this is a joke article.

Jews want to Regulate AI

Ever wonder why authorities are so eager to regulate Artificial Intelligence? How can more knowledge and intelligence be a bad thing?

A United Nations agency reports:

New UNESCO report warns that Generative AI threatens Holocaust memory

A UNESCO report published today warns that unless decisive action is taken to integrate ethical principles, AI could distort the historical record of the Holocaust and fuel antisemitism.

If we allow the horrific facts of the Holocaust to be diluted, distorted or falsified through the irresponsible use of AI, we risk the explosive spread of antisemitism and the gradual diminution of our understanding about the causes and consequences of these atrocities. Implementing UNESCO’s Recommendation on the Ethics of AI is urgent so that younger generations grow up with facts, not fabrications.

UNESCO Director-General
Audrey AzoulayUNESCO Director-General

Published in partnership with the World Jewish Congress, the UNESCO report explains that as learners increasingly use Generative AI to complete assignments and find information online, they risk exposure to distorted information about the Holocaust, which has found new ways to spread through AI-generated content.

AI just regurgitates facts in its training set.

In most of Europe, it is legal to exaggerate the Jewish Holocaust, but illegal to minimize or dilute it. So trying to state accurate facts can be dangerous. AI threatens to expose unregulated facts.

Meanwhile France President Macron has survived the election by aligning himself with the Leftists and Communists, the Jews are wising up about their enemies:

PARIS — If you want an indication of the effectiveness of Marine Le Pen’s efforts to detoxify her image, look no further than Serge Klarsfeld, a Holocaust survivor who spent his life hunting down former Nazis.

Presented with a choice between the hard-left France Unbowed movement and Le Pen’s far-right National Rally party, the 88-year-old Jewish rights activist said he would vote for the latter “without hesitation.”

Far-right parties in Europe have “disavowed antisemitism and support Jews,” Klarsfeld said in a televised interview ahead of the country’s two-round parliamentary election on June 30 and July 7.

The unexpected endorsement reflects the extent to which Le Pen has repositioned her party since she took it over from her father, a convicted Holocaust denier who once described the murder of 6 million Jews as “a minor detail” in the history of World War II.

The left-wingers want to kill the Jews, not the right-wingers.

Another UN agency says 50,000 babies have been born in Gaza, since the Oct. 7, 2023 war started. People accuse Irrael of genocide, but apparently it is not making a dent in the Gaza population.

Scamala: Kamala Harris Unmasked

Ben Shapiro tells her life story, and it is not good.

Nobody thinks that Pres. Biden will be competent in 2028. Most think he is incompetent now. mainstream Democrats are sticking with him as the candidate.

They are really asking you to accept Kamala Harris as President.

Biden has kept the support of the White-haters and Woke Left by making only 5% of his judicial appointments White men.

Everything about Harris is bad. Just watch the video.

Biden's Lies have been going on for years

Everyone suddenly turned against Pres. Biden after the debate, as if he showed dementia for the first time.

But his debate consisted mostly of carefully prepared remarks that repeated talking points that he has been saying for years.

Consider this excerpt, where he (1) refers to Trump prosecutions that Biden himself ordered, and acted as if they were Trump's own problems; (2) then complains about the possibility that Trump might do to him the same as what he did to Trump, as retribution; (3) repeats the lie that his son died in Iraq (he died of brain cancer, 6 years after leaving Iraq); (4) repeats the lie that he decided to run for President based on what he saw in Charlottesville; and (5) repeats the Trump "fine people" hoax:

BIDEN: The more they know about what he’s done, yes. The more they know about what he’s done.

And there’s a lot more coming. He’s got a lot of cases around the road coming around. He’s got – he’s got a whole range of issues he has to face. I don’t know what the juries will do, but I do know – I do know he has a real problem.

And so the fact that – could you ever think you’re hearing any president say that, I’m going to seek retribution? Do you ever hear any president say that he thought it might be a good idea?

What got me involved to run in the first place after my son had died, I decided – in Iraq – because of Iraq, I said, I wasn’t going to run again. Until I saw what happened in Charlottesville, Virginia, people coming out of the woods carrying swastikas on torches – torches and singing the same antisemitic bile they sang when – back in Germany.

And what did – and the young woman got killed. I spoke to the mother. And she – they asked him, they said, what – well, what do you think of those people, the people who – the one who – the ones who tried to stop it and the ones who said, I think there’s fine people on both sides?

What American president would ever say Nazis coming out of fields, carrying torches, singing the same antisemitic bile, carrying swastikas, were fine people?

This is a guy who says Hitler’s done some good things. I’d like to know what they are, the good things Hitler’s done. That’s what he said.

This guy has no sense of American democracy.

Everyone agrees that these are lies that Biden has been telling for years. And then he ends by saying Trump has no sense of democracy, while Biden is the one prosecuting his political enemies.
BIDEN: You have to take a look at what I was left when I became president, what Mr. Trump left me.

We had an economy that was in freefall. The pandemic are so badly handled, many people were dying. All he said was, it’s not that serious. Just inject a little bleach in your arm. It’d be all right.

The economy collapsed. There were no jobs. Unemployment rate rose to 15 percent. It was terrible.

Trump never said anything about bleach. Trump's remarks were video-recorded, and he merely made some comments about legitimate medical research. Nobody with a working brain could think that Trump said anything about bleach. Or that he said neo-nazis were fine people.

I post this because Biden has been saying these things for 5 years. This was not some temporary lapse on debate night.

I am not sure if Biden is stupid, deluded, or demented. No one should have been surprised by the debate. He is not competent to hold any job of responsibility. Apparently he is just a puppet, and White House decisions are being made by puppeteers.

The Democrats will tell you that Trump also lies. But not like this. Trump sometimes exaggerates, or misstates a minors. He never tells lies like these.

Neanderthal Aesthetic Capacity

A new paper argues that Neanderthal aestetics were were comparable to those of the best other human ancestors at the time, and rejects areuments that Neanderthals had inferior aesthetic cognitive capacity.

The curious thing, to me, is that a lot of the evidence for aesthetic abilities is from the last 50,000 years, and it is also known that Neanderthals and African hominin interbred about 50k years ago.

There are some possibilities. Maybe the advances were independent. Maybe one group was a cultural influence on the other. That is, one made advances and the other copied them.

Maybe neither group had the cognitive capacity for aesthetics, and only the hybrid hominins had the ability.

If one group was cognitively superior, which was it? Apparently a lot of people assume that it was the African hominin. But as this paper points out, the evidence for that is very weak, and the Neanderthals had slightly larger brains.

Apparently no one wants to believe that the Neanderthals or the hybrids were the superior ones. It is as if anthropologists identify with the African hominins, just because the papers often call them "modern humans" or H. sapiens.

My hunch is that the Neanderthals, and then the hybrids, were the superior ones. Europeans of today are descended from the hybrids.

The Meaning of E Pluribus Unum

From a new Dennis Prager podcaset:
Race and ethnicity have defined every nation on earth. Except one: the United States of America. It is defined by values.

So, to understand America, you have to understand American values.

They are:
1. “E Pluribus Unum”
2. “Liberty”
3. “In God We Trust.”

I call this “The American Trinity.” I made up the name, but I didn’t make up the values. They are on every American coin.

The first, E Pluribus Unum, is Latin, meaning, “Out of many, one.” When first adopted as an American motto shortly after the American founding in 1776, it referred to the thirteen American colonies becoming one nation. Over time, however, most Americans understood the motto to mean one people from many backgrounds. To quote The E Pluribus Unum Project, funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities, “Over the years, E Pluribus Unum has also served as a reminder of America's bold attempt to make one unified nation of people from many different backgrounds and beliefs.”

Wikipedia defines the meaning of the phrase:
The meaning of the phrase originated from the concept that out of the union of the original Thirteen Colonies emerged a new single nation.[8] It is emblazoned across the scroll and clenched in the eagle's beak on the Great Seal of the United States.[8][9]
Okay, that seems clear enough. Some of the colonies had citizens whose ancestry was from different parts of Northwestern Europe, and some followed different Christian denominations.

Prager deduces:

In other words, America doesn’t care about your national or ethnic origins.

This explains why people who immigrate to America assimilate faster and more fully than immigrants to any other country.

Most of those who have immigrated to Europe, from, for example, Turkey – as millions have – are not considered fully German by fellow Germans or fully Swedish by fellow Swedes or fully Spanish by fellow Spaniards. This is even true of the children and grandchildren of those immigrants.

And, just as important, few of those immigrants – or their children or grandchildren – will ever feel fully German, Swedish, or Spanish. But a Turk who immigrates to the United States will be regarded as fully American – as American as any other American – the moment he or she becomes a citizen. And they – and certainly their children – will feel fully American.

What? The people who put E Pluribus Unum on our coins did not have Turks in mind.

Prager is an Orthodox Jew and I am glad he feels fully American, but I am not sure that is true about most of the races and ethnic groups that have come to the USA.

Official to Improve Men's Behavior

CNN reports:
As Australian women push for action on domestic violence – a problem described by the country’s prime minister as a “national crisis” – one state has appointed a special official charged with improving men’s behavior.

Victoria Premier Jacinta Allan announced Wednesday that state MP Tim Richardson would serve as the inaugural Parliamentary Secretary for Men’s Behavior Change – the first position of its kind in the country.

Richardson said he would focus on the influence the internet and social media have on male attitudes towards women, and on building respectful relationships. It would not be “easy work, but it is important,” he added.

A minister to improve BIPOC behavior would make more sense.

Trump is Vindicated

The US Supreme Court has just determined that the President is immune from prosecution for official acts The Biden DoJ was doing politicizing prosecutions as had never been done before.

Most of the accusations against Trump, including both impeachments, depend on some mindreading. That is, there was nothing wrong with what Trump actually did.

In dividing official from unofficial conduct, courts may not inquire into the President's motives. Such a “highly intrusive” inquiry would risk exposing even the most obvious instances of official conduct toju- dicial examination on the mere allegation of improper purpose. Fitz- gerald, 457 U. S., at 756. Nor may courts deem an action unofficial merely because it allegedly violates a generally applicable law. Oth- erwise, Presidents would be subject to trial on "every allegation that an action was unlawful,” depriving immunity of its intended effect.
The court also ruled in favor of J6 protesters who were convicted of corruptly destroying court documents. They did not destroy court documents, they were trespassing on Capitol grounds. And they were not doing it corruptly. They were doing it as a political protest.

A criminal case should prove criminal intent. I am not disputing that. Convicting Hunter Biden required proving that he checked a box falsely, and that he intended to buy the gun under false pretenses. His real crime was collecting bribes in the name of his father, but that is another story.

In Trump's case, he said: "I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard." The prosecution is based on mindreading Trump to argue that this was some sort of code phrase for instigating a violent insurrection. Other cases also require bizarre stories for that Trump was thinking.

Update: Here is Biden, on the scotus immunity ruling:

So, now — now the American people have to do what the Court should have been willing to do but would not.  The America people have to render a judgment about Donald Trump’s behavior. ...

I concur with Justice Sotomayor’s dissent today.  She — here’s what she said.  She said, “In every use of official power, the president is now a king above the law.  With fear for our democracy, I dissent,” end of quote. So should the American people dissent.  I dissent. 

So Scotus undermined democracy by forcing the American people to vote on the matter!

France's First Lady could be a Man

Newsweek reported in March:
Conservative commentator Candace Owens said she would bet her career that French President Emmanuel Macron's wife Brigitte is a man.

"After looking into this, I would stake my entire professional reputation on the fact that Brigitte Macron is in fact a man," Owens wrote in a Tuesday post on X, formerly Twitter. "Any journalist or publication that is trying to dismiss this plausibility is immediately identifiable as establishment. I have never seen anything like this in my life. The implications here are terrifying."

Owens spoke in depth about the longstanding conspiracy theory during Monday's episode of her podcast, arguing that if Brigitte really wanted to debunk those claims, she could simply release photos from the first 30 years of her life. Analyzing a rare family photo of Brigitte as a baby, Owens said Brigitte was a "dead ringer" for her brother, and thus, they were really the same person.

This is kooky, and a Snopes article says it is false. The Macrons have even taken legal action to try to shut down the rumors.

Owens is sticking to her position, and has bet money on it.

There have also been rumors that Michelle Obama is a man, and Barack Obama is a woman.

I have no idea, but a couple of things seem odd. If the Macrons really wanted to shut down this story, then Brigitte Macron could simply appear in public with her brother.

The official story is pretty bizarre also. Brigitte first met Emmanuel when she was a 39-year-old teacher, and he was a 15-year-old student.

Wouldn't the press figure this out, and expose it if it were true? No, they would not. The press has a strict policy against outing homosexuals, and against dead-naming transgenders. The press would keep the secret.

So what reason is there to believe that Mrs. Macron is woman? Because the press says so? The press would say so, whether true or not.
