With intelligence ... nothing in headlines and blurbs, but giving you the benefit o' the doubt, we searched for a week. two additional articles produced: "One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it." While some people praised Pahlavi for inspiring protesters, others asked whether he was responsible for sending them to detention and possible death, as some believed Trump was for similarly encouraging the protesters. For the last 15 years, Pahlavi has intensified his efforts to unify the political opposition and gain greater exposure, culminating in him emerging as a central figure in the latest protests. Yet there remain questions about whether he is viable as an opposition leader or is simply an opportunist. His message about a democratic future for Iran has been largely consistent. However, his father’s repressive and imperial legacy, combined with his own royal pedigree and American and Israeli proximity, prevent him from finding favor with Iranians who oppose monarchy and prioritize sovereignty. Now, the prospect of Iranians across the country rallying around Pahlavi remains as much of an open question as whether they will succeed in creating the conditions for his return by toppling the regime. ... this one don't look helpful to your position other: https://www.faz.net/aktuell/politik/thema/iran uh, sure. if we do an iran + protests search with no date limitations, we find 1 within the first 60 western stories which makes any mention o' pahlavi in the headline or blurb inclusion: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/iran-protests-executions-protests-trump-strikes-b2901981.html. is an independent article from 16 jan 2026. the next story, a fair bit past 60 western options (is story 130, 132... am assuming you count israel sources as western, but if not) we discovered an old friend, A leader for a future Iran? Pahlavi's efforts to position himself as a leader for a future Iran have prompted sometimes heated debates inside and outside the country. And while protesters have shouted in support of the shah in some protests, it is not clear whether that is support for Pahlavi himself or a desire to return to a time before the 1979 Islamic Revolution. His public support of Israel has prompted significant criticism in the past from ordinary Iranians and other members of opposition groups, particularly after the 12-day war launched by Israel in June 2025. He has sought to have a voice through social media videos, and Farsi-language news channels such as Iran International have highlighted his calls for protests. In press interviews, Pahlavi has repeatedly raised the idea of a constitutional monarchy, perhaps with an elected rather than a hereditary ruler, but has also stated it is up to Iranians to choose. is a 10 january 2026 npr article we already shared to rebut your embiggen nonsense. pahlavi appears in the address for a cbs story but not in the headline or snippet supplied. pahlavi also showed up for a couple wikipedia entries, but you wouldn't be so naughty as to include wiki entries... would you? so... HA! Good Fun!
  4. show your work. you near always misrepresent, so show where we made the accusation o' how you, "constant brought up hans blix." (edit: just one post where we specific note zor's reluctance to talk about blix given his error,) that you has brought up the accusation that the administration lied about wmds more than once, which is especial curious as one o' your supplied sources (blix,) has made it quite clear he did not feel coerced (also one o' your claims) and he believed that bush and the people around him were telling truth as they believed it. when finally confronted with the video evidence that your portrayal o' blix were inaccurate, you suggested that blix were being untruthful, 'cause y'know, blix is a diplomat. your blixing were dishonest and revealed a distinct lack o' character, just as your indifference to maligning cops, journalist or anybody regardless o' the fact that, as often as not you have no evidence o' a wrong... or make up evidence. it's your thing. Gromnir has a bizarre posting style, and you lie w/o remorse. we all got our thing, eh? and you did indeed share with us that you don't care about slandering journalists in the absence o' any support for your accusations o' their moral turpitude. if you stopped at suggesting reporters are incorrect, that would not be problematic, but you don't mind ascribing ill-intent to their work product. am not arguing that you failed to explain but am rather pointing out that your explanation is in fact an admission even if you fail to recognize the problem... another character issue we s'pose. quoting an academic, particular as we were using him as support, were hardly impugning his good name... not at all like your blixing. as we noted earlier, we opined that you has effective turned blix into a verb. obviously you don't want to talk about blix as you got caught misrepresenting his statements and when you were caught, you resorted to claiming blix were the dishonest one. low character and pathological dishonest. is also weird you would still refer to the video o' blix at berkeley as "mythical." you just can't give up on any stoopid claim no matter how ridiculous, eh? what a natural segue. but nevertheless, still before, this ... serious dude. even if it had been the only option we presented, if all we said were to ignore you, would not necessitate the recognition o' alternatives simply 'cause you had included "an option." and you clear did not recognize that we had fully dispelled the "one might wonder why," part o' the query. we explained, painfully, how and why we had no intention o' putting you on ignore anytime soon, and yet, even so, you wondered, maybe repetition will finally fill the mouth o' this zombie issue o' yours with enough salt to prevent your next resurrection effort. bets? this is a turin horse situation. am not knowing why you thought "option" had such significance, but it didn't, doesn't and is kinda a silly bit o' deflection... but that is also a zor thing, along with habitual blixing and making claims o' wrong doing before there is even the possibility o' meaningful evidence in support o' such a conclusion. btw, another day goes by and another day w/o pahlavi getting a mention in the headline or snippet share from an incognito google news return o' iran + protests stories up to a count o' 60. curious, there is now a britanica entry for the iranian protests o' 2026 (is listed as 2 days old and pahlavi is mentioned in the entry, but even zor would have difficulty making bread outta that flour,) and the following story, which we personal found interesting. Writers’ Voices Increasingly Missing in Iran Protests As Regime Targets Democracy Advocates Among those arrested at the December memorial service was Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Narges Mohammadi, who is emblematic of the enduring role of writers in Iran. Winner of the 2023 PEN/Barbey Freedom to Write award for imprisoned writers, Narges has used her voice to bind her personal sacrifice to Iranians’ collective struggle for democracy and freedom. She has spent more than a decade of her life in prison, separated from her husband and children. Just over a year ago, in December 2024, she was granted a temporary medical release. Despite the constant threat of being re-arrested, she immediately resumed her outspoken advocacy and stayed in Iran to keep up the fight. She has been a ceaseless, fearless voice capable of uniting people behind calls for equal rights, justice, and democracy. For that, the regime has returned her to prison. somehow we missed the news about narges mohammadi, which is about 7 weeks old at this point. nevertheless, if we type narges + iran into a search, am positive flooded with articles about her arrest. based on a mindless search return for narges + iran, a person who don't know how search engines work, or who is patent dishonest, might conclude that western media were trying to turn narges mohammadi into the sympathetic face o' the iranian protests... which would be a stoopid exaggeration o' reality, no? HA! Good Fun!
  5. Don Lemon arrested by federal authorities after protest at Minnesota church service Lemon was arrested by the FBI and Homeland Security Investigations in Beverly Hills at approximately midnight, according to a federal warrant issued in another district. Details of the charges against the four were not immediately available. However, the Justice Department promised to pursue charges against Lemon after the independent journalist covered the protest at a church in St. Paul on Jan. 18. A federal magistrate judge had previously rejected a criminal complaint against Lemon. A source familiar with the matter, described Bondi as “enraged” by the decision. ... am having no idea the mechanism used to arrest lemon and others, did the feds do as with sandwich guy and find a misdemeanor? did they appeal to a higher power on an emergency basis (unlikely)? did they successful convince a grand jury? trespassing charges woulda' made sense for the protesters who were already arrested, and am not sure if bondi tried that with lemon... after the fact. as with so much doj theatre, am s'posing is more about the arrest than the charges, but it will be interesting to see how they managed this seeming first amendment abuse. edit: am unsure if the following is real, 'cause is kinda daliesque HA! Good Fun!
  6. FBI raid in Georgia highlights Trump's preoccupation with the 2020 election The FBI last week moved to replace its top agent in Atlanta, Paul W. Brown, according to people familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a non-public personnel decision. It was not immediately clear why the move, which was not publicized by the FBI, was made. ... got no meaningful insights. is a whole lot about this situation which is out o' the ordinary: dni tulsi gabbard being present during the search, the named prosecutor for the warrant is the acting us attorney from missouri and not georgia, and o' the two fed statutes which got mention in the warrant, one is 'bout the requirement to retain election documents for 22 months following an election... the 2020 election, etc. am not having any idea what evidence the magistrate looked at to come to their determination. wsj has a story about tulsi involvement the part from the story which worries us is, "She is expected to prepare a report on her work, the people said. The administration has discussed executive orders on voting ahead of the midterm elections, two of the officials said." got a plan and are looking for an excuse to implement it? or maybe not. is a whole lotta unknowns save to recognize that fulton county's 2020 election were already investigated a bunch o' times without anybody finding intentional and widespread voter fraud. is there new evidence? if there is new evidence, why is tulsi the one involved, particularly as she personal dismantled the FMIC. is there any there there in fulton county? not enough info to make a meaningful call. HA! Good Fun!
  7. ... thanks for doubling down on our point. you don't care about honesty, facts, truth or maligning just about anybody, sans any kinda evidence. you blix all the time, and reflexively. it's your defining board characteristic. ... your post, with this query, "One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it." was shared after our post. "you are the one clown am not gonna ignore anytime soon. even expressed our admitted wishful thinking that others begin verifying your source and fact checking when dealing with zor. why would we ignore you when you have provided us with multiple opportunities respond to and illuminate your misrepresentations since only the middle o' last year, and that is with us being in absentia for weeks and even a month at a time. we offered advice on how boardies should deal with you. ignore is indeed best, at least until you stop lying reflexive. converse, check all your claimed sources and experts. "doveryay, no proveryay "bad advice when dealing with zor. don't trust. " and lord knows you trying to lede and summary your way out o' your new "option" fumble is complete expected. "One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it," doesn't change meaning if Gromnir only provided the recommendation to ignore you. your insistence that posting "option" signaled your awareness o' our "or" alternatives is unconvincing especial since when we read the entire sentence, it is clear you also missed our explanation for why we were not gonna ignore you anytime soon. there were no plausible "one might wonder why," when you made the query. duh... again maybe now you will try and convince us you didn't notice or didn't realize post placement 'cause you haven't really been paying attention... or that we got owned by you for following you down your "an option" rabbit hole o' nonsense? btw, no pahlavi in the headlines or "ledes" o' the first 60 stories for iran + protests produced by our search engine lazy effort. much embiggening, eh? HA! Good Fun!
  8. this has gone to a bizarre place. you cannot be serious. if the only option we had presented were ignoring you, your response o'," One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it," would remain ridiculous seeing as how we fully answered that question BEFORE you asked it. but the fact you put the word "option" into the query would not have been perplexing to us in light o' the fact we supplied only one option. our singular recommendation would have indeed been "an option." duh. if we suggested that purchasing a huge life insurance plan and then indulging murder by cop was an excellent retirement plan for your family, you coulda responded exact the same way with, "One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it," and if Gromnir had fixated on the word option, railing about how we had not presented an "or" alternative, we would look positive insane with that bit o' nonsensical deflection... and yet here we are, with zor playing the role o' the most obtuse person ever. you got a long history o' blixing, so... edit: zor's biggest reveal from the current bumbling response chain weren't his lazy reliance on an internet search population or his mendacity regarding ledes and summaries... which were just plain silly. nope, we let it slide at the time, 'cause we didn't want to go to a full on character evaluation, but since you is ok with it, "lol, the poor unfortunate journalists, it's their eternal good fortune that Gromnir is on the case to defend them from vile calumny on the Obsidian forums. Of course, works a bit less well when you've just thrown a Harvard Professor under the bus to avoid admitting you were wrong. And when you've accused Trump's medical staff of effectively lying about his health to prop up your speculation about it." you make clear that you honest don't see anything wrong with attributing bad intent to journalists, cops, soldiers, politicians or just about anybody else, regardless o' any evidence to support such claims. even when your claims is proved wrong, there is no remorse. am finding that sorta behaviour to be disquieting. academics is unlikely to mind if you quote them. observe how a professor predicted a likely currency collapse if drastic measures were not taken is not gonna enrage a typical academic, but am seeing how that might bother zor. converse, if we had claimed the professor had predicted a currency collapse if severe austerity measures were not taken, and the professor had actually opined that russia were never in any danger o' economic pain from sanctions coupled with the oil situation, then am thinking he would have cause for outrage. if we blixed him, calling the academic a liar when our own misrepresentation were revealed, then am thinking it would show a serious flaw in our character. and yeah, am suspicious o' the claims made by trump's doctors. seeing as how there has been questions about the truthfulness o' trump doctor claims since at least 2018, one wonders why zor is so credulous. regardless, doesn't look like we rushed this one either. am not perfect. no doubt am having proverbial jumped the gun more than once in spite o' our admonishments that doing so is wrong. am recalling that we accused rittenhouse (mention him as he is back in the news) o' taking a firearm across state lines when such was not the case. sure, we qualified that we hadn't been paying much attention to the trial, but we were wrong about the state line issue and we shoulda' self-educated more thorough before opening our gob on that point. our bad. we got all kinda character flaws; no argument. one reason we dislike trump so much is his constant lying. am not sure why in 2026 it is more important to have a viral take than to provide an honest and reflective response. lack o' fairness also triggers us more than it should. maybe we will work on such... maybe after we see zor ease up on the reflexive blixing? HA! Good Fun!
  9. for gd to give up they are all bad is an admitted heavy ask. his entire political identity is premised on the notion you should abandon voting democrat or republican. choose trump to prevent biden from becoming President or choosing harris instead o' trump is a deal with the devil and the americans will never see anything better from our government as long as people keep making the same pointless mistake. is a whole lotta self-described libertarians who feel as gd, and while we did not share his pov, we were sympathetic to it... up until muslim ban. gd didn't vote for trump like the maga faithful who see him as their savior from dei and the scourge of illegal immigration. gd didn't vote for rfk jr 'cause o' vaccines. gd didn't vote trump like so many relative indifferent voters who nevertheless continue to view trump as a successful businessman who could lower the cost o' groceries. gd ain't like the democrats who lost faith in the biden administration 'cause o' gaza or perceived weakness on the environment and voted trump or third party in protest. gd voted other 'cause he was certain that democrat v. republican is a no-win option, but he failed to recognize just how much a guaranteed loss a trump victory would be. gd were voting as a matter o' principle, may God have mercy on his soul.. post jan 6, we realized that they are all bad is a religious belief and not a political position. is gonna take a road to damascus event to convince gd that lesser of two evils is anything other than surrendering to evil. HA! Good Fun!
  10. again, are you this thick? we did not just supply "an option," but multiple. how could you pretend as if we did not offer multiple options while explaining why ignore were best? you tacit recognize this fact but nevertheless question why we would mention the ignore possibility? 'cause it were indeed a choice, a choice between multiple options, an "or" kinda choice, and we specific answered your query o' with, you can see it right... how we explained why we would offer it as an option before you asked the question. dude. how do you miss the "or" and the already supplied explanation for your question? serious? gonna go this obtuse with the sophistry and word parsing, eh? you cannot be this willful obtuse, although the fact this is the hill you want to fight on does serious undermine the sophistry complaints, no? HA! Good Fun! ps am honest reaching the turin horse point where we begin to feel guilt.
  11. link just an fyi as am knowing there is a few costcos in the chicago burbs. have never personal eaten 'em, but the word o' mouth from people we trust is good. ~.30¢ an ounce at our local costco in norcal and is one o' those items, like the chicken bakes and frozen meatballs, am having seen every time we visit costo. HA! Good Fun!
  12. well, maybe not his best effort, but it speaks to us for some reason... and we wouldn't be shocked if maga adopted it in some form as an attempted lib own. HA! Good Fun!
  13. bought two 22oz bags o' the miss vickie's spicy dill pickle chips. am not certain how am gonna eat all the chips before they go stale. sell by date is april 21, and am s'posing we got at least a few weeks past that point for an unopened bag... maybe? ... they are good chips and costco doesn't carry 'em all the time, so... also, made a pork tenderloin crusted with crushed pecans and panko bread crumbs. we go light on brown sugar, but heavy on a creole seasoning mix as well as a fair bit o' sage. red onions and red pairs is also involved, but is relative simple as is most pork tenderloin recipes. am gonna have pork tenderloin for a while, but not near as long as the chips... and sadly, am not believing the chips would compliment the pork as am having prepared it... but y'know, we do have a dill, garlic-aioli and panko crust technique for pork tenderloin. am suspecting the chips would make a fine substitute/addition to panko. HA! Good Fun!
  14. Fed holds key interest rate steady as economic view improves am certain trump's response will be cogent and sober. HA! Good Fun!
  15. had to take a civility oath as part o' yearly professional responsibilities... and dues. the oath is a new requirement for existing members. previous to 2026, only new applicants had to take the oath once it became a requirement in 2014, so we were exempt. “As... (stuff,) I will strive to conduct myself at all times with dignity, courtesy, and integrity.” that could be a problem. kidding, when acting in our professional capacity, am always showing courtesy and maintaining integrity. literal quit our best paying gig 'cause o' moral concerns even when a strict application o' ethics rules did not require. ... after some honest self reflection, "dignity" mighta' been an issue. lucky am retired. HA! Good Fun!
  16. yes you are. gosh, that's ez. the rest o' your response is just more o' your lies. will wait for new ones as revisiting your reflexive blixing is offering diminishing returns, but... you didn't bother to read, eh? it were an "or" option. again proving how obtuse you are. am agreeing it is a best approach to ignore zor, but until am seeing you tone down the reflexive and habitual fibbing, am gonna call it out when we see it. no doubt won't be a long wait. HA! Good Fun! ps fixed a curious edit faux pas
  17. his health concerns no doubt take precedence. avoiding the aggravation is the path o' wisdom. and even w/o him positing, am certain he would recognize how trump 2.0 has been a nightmare for personal liberties, truth and human decency, but do you believe he would budge from his contention that biden was just as bad and kamala might have been worse? we would be shocked if he had given a fraction o' an inch on the they are all bad bit. the ostrich impersonation survived january six, trump being found liable for digital rape, criminal fraud conviction for his business and trump refusing to return nuclear secrets to the national archives, yes? that said, am genuine hopeful @Guard Dog is enjoying improved health... and wisconsin's -10 C temperatures as well as the ice fishing paradise that is lake winnebago in january. late edit: if @Pidesco wants for us to take a serious stab at summoning guard dog, am offering the following HA! Good Fun!
  18. am surprised to admit the recent french troll efforts is clever and amusing and previous posted macron sporting the bidenesque aviator glasses deserves a bit o' a penalty, but am giving 'em a B+. HA! Good Fun!
  19. you are being obtuse. your conceit is that the listed quotes, sans context o' how they were used in stories (and purposeful failing to reveal that the stories were in fact ambivalent and equivocal regarding pahlavi influence... naughty,) revealed some kinda self-evident gestalt conclusion that the west were embiggening pahlavi. voicing your conclusion is not meaningful context... but this tragic rear-guard defense is sophistry... again. *chuckle* your after the fact ledes silliness were an effort to grant context to rando quotes by mere fact the unlinked and unattributed quotes were ledes. you spent multiple posts on that tangential idiocy to try and invent and invest context. am still trying to figure out how you thought (hook + essential facts) = (summary opinions,) but such was always irrelevant. 'course you not getting it, and purposeful deflecting is your mo. spent how many days plagued by you after the israeli attack o' iran 'cause you were doing strawman... you just couldn't accept that Gromnir were critical o' israel's excuses for attacking and so you ignored and lied about our arguments to further your anti-israel position... which were kinda insane as, again, Gromnir were criticizing the israeli rationale for attacking iran. just another example o' how what is said by Gromnir don't matter as you deflect, indulge in the sophistry, and flat out lie when confronted with inconvenient facts. is your modus operandi. compulsive. you just can't help self. we posted the position o' a harvard economist who claimed that if russia didn't take drastic measures, they were facing a currency collapse. economically, russia is a gas station with an army, so contrary to zor positions, sanctions can be devastating... which has always been part o' the problem. nobody wants a russian collapse, and pre 2021, nobody wanted russia desperate enough to do something zor thought were unthinkable, such as invading ukraine. is a difficult balancing effort when dealing with such a vulnerable economy. and you still don't get that it ain't about being wrong. many people were wrong about ukraine. what you did were impugn the character o' people involved in reporting about ukraine in spite o' a paucity o' evidence or support. cops in sheboygan and uvalde is no different than the journalists you smeared before the russian invasion. you arrived at a conclusion o' moral turpitude, and then stuck with it and lied about it even when evidence did become available. blix calling bush a liar was never true; you made it up. when you were final confronted with evidence o' blix stating bush were truthful about wmds, you doubled-down and pointed out that blix were a diplomat, functional calling blix the liar. am having been personal wrong many times. example: we thought trump were a smaller problem than many imagined in 2016. we pointed out that pretty much everything he were claiming he would do would require Congressional support he were unlikely to ever manage. we would like to go back to 2015 and give our self a good smack for our naivety. we did not foresee the scope o' trump danger... but we didn't suggest that those who saw trump as a transcendental threat were attacking trump for malicious reasons. so what? it ain't being wrong which is the problem. your reflexive character smears before it is possible to make a reasonable and informed conclusions is problematic. your routine misstating o' history, sources and facts is problematic. your lies is problematic. see, this is what you do. find where we said we had put you on ignore. "you are pathological. took a while for the locals to come around to the idea that attacking the character o' individuals before relevant facts has had been established all too often makes the accuser look like a fool in hindsight. that sorta behaviour happens less around these parts than it once did. am hopeful these continued exercises have a similar positive effect. most o' us take factual claims made by fellow posters at face value, 'cause who could be bothered to check every link and source, but zor is so utter incapable o' intellectual honesty that it is good practice to search every source and verify every quote... or just ignore you." you are the one clown am not gonna ignore anytime soon. even expressed our admitted wishful thinking that others begin verifying yourr source and fact checking when dealing with zor. why would we ignore you when you have provided us with multiple opportunities respond to and illuminate your misrepresentations since only the middle o' last year, and that is with us being in absentia for weeks and even a month at a time. we offered advice on how boardies should deal with you. ignore is indeed best, at least until you stop lying reflexive. converse, check all your claimed sources and experts. doveryay, no proveryay bad advice when dealing with zor. don't trust.
  20. previous to strange new worlds, which we saw less than a month ago, the most recent trek property am having watched were a bit o' discovery. based on most feedback we received from trek fans we know in rl, we saw no need to end our sabbatical. will give prodigy a chance. HA! Good Fun!
  21. ok, am knowing this is trivial, but am nevertheless gonna point out that even as a guy who grew up as a white sox fan, the first thing we think o' when we recall wgn in the 80s and 90s is that they carried cubs games... am s'posing MASH reruns is what we recall second from that time period... and then yeah, bozo. ds:9 is our favorite trek series for the same reasons which annoy @Amentep, although we did recent watch strange new worlds season 1 for the first time and we enjoyed it. HA! Good Fun!
  22. Trump aides declared 16 DHS shootings since July justified before probes completed None of the officers from Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Border Patrol or Homeland Security Investigations has faced criminal charges in any of the shootings, nor has the administration announced any internal disciplinary measures against them. “Historically, federal cases are investigated thoroughly up front,” said Christopher Parente, who previously served as an assistant U.S. attorney in Chicago and Miami and is representing a woman shot by Border Patrol in Chicago. “Here, they are charging people first and asking questions later. There’s such pressure from the administration to charge right away and make headlines so they can put out false press releases.” ... am suspecting that part o' the goal is to undermine american faith in law enforcement and the legal process. more than a few people in the trump administration has been investigated and trump were convicted. when the trump people are gone from the executive branch, how many americans is gonna trust the fbi to be fair and impartial? you can't trust them. party affiliation, education level, skin color, tax bracket and a host o' other thems exist who americans current don't trust the legal system to investigate, much less prosecute fair. the current administration looks hellbent on complete destroying any faith in our legal and investigative institutions. has been a noticeable recent trend that juries asked to weigh preponderance of the evidence and beyond a reasonable doubt standards are increasing likely to embrace conspiracy theory. gen z jurors in particular is less likely to see anything wrong with indulging fringe beliefs 'pon which to base their ultimate decision on the most hairbrained possibilities. 'course lack o' faith in law enforcement undermining the justice system is not a new problem (anybody recall oj? not trusting la cops in the early to mid 90s was hardly unreasonable) but rare have we seen a coordinated effort from the government to create the suspicion, and the issue is becoming more widespread than at any time since Gromnir were born... which is a long time remote. HA! Good Fun!
  23. again, am not sure if you are as obtuse as you pretend, and lord knows it ain't Gromnir who tried to reinvent definitions of ledes, and summaries as some kinda bizarre defense o' the notion that western media is conspiring to embiggen pahlavi.... which is "eerily similar" to your ukraine blunder, blaming journalists for their accurate reporting o' pentagon info... pentagon info which a few more folks shoulda taken serious in hindsight, eh? your pahlavi relevance list o' quotes were from stories which were equivocal and ambivalent about pahlavi's impact. you were misrepresenting... lying or too lazy to have read the articles. pointing out your error in misrepresenting articles with a no-context list o' quotes is hardly picking nits. converse, responding with inaccurate ledes and summary definitions were laughable and looks positive hypocritical given your current criticisms. you talking out your kiester ain't our concern... it's the willful deceit. you invent expert opinions and sources outta the ether, and when caught in the act, you claim nit picks. when you is caught misrepresenting the quotes, as you did with your recent mindless search engine efforts, and with the timeframe for iran to achieve breakout, and dementia diagnosis (although that were a strawman bit o' nonsense, so it highlights two o' your auto-fails,) and on and on and on, you deflect with nonsense about ledes definitions and then claim is Gromnir who is indulging sophistry? *chuckle* zor has managed to turn Blix into a verb. regardless, this has been a hoot. am waiting for your next attempt to lie your way outta lazy. HA! Good Fun!
  24. keep in mind that the feds is playing fast and loose with the numbers just by using %. if we were informed that ice activity in residential neighborhoods had increased 13x since trump 2.0 began, you likely wouldn't be shocked. am not sure what the actual increase is, but is gonna be significant, yes? if ice activity has multiplied by a factor o' 13, then one would expect assaults to increase by at least the same amount... ignoring the fact the ice guys is now receiving half the training they did previous and am expecting the % o' rookie ice officers is now much higher than years past. https://x.com/KaivanShroff/status/2016024233160147376 also, Jury acquits LA County ICE protester of assaulting a federal officer Brayan Ramos-Brito was accused of assaulting a federal agent during a protest outside the Homeland Security Investigations building in Paramount. Initially, federal authorities charged him with a felony but reduced it to misdemeanor assault of a federal officer. During the two-day trial, U.S. Border Patrol Sector Chief Gregory Bovino testified that he witnessed Ramos-Brito strike the agent with an open palm. Multiple videos showing Ramos-Brito were displayed during the trial, one of which showed a Border Patrol officer shoving Ramos-Brito during the June 7 protest. The other videos did not clearly show Ramos-Brito striking the agent. ... as a few people is aware, Gromnir ain't an all cops are bad honk. how many times have we identified that the cop job is not what many people believe it to be? cops ain't required to selfless sacrifice life and limb in protection o' ordinary citizens, and their pay and education means it is unfair to expect 'em to be superheroes in navy blue uniforms. that said, am also aware that most law enforcement am having been around is extreme loose with their definitions o' assault. any person who bumps or touches law enforcement is gonna be written up in the report as having possible committed assault, and then it is up to the prosecutor to charge or not. and DOJ vowed to punish those who disrupt Trump’s immigration crackdown. Dozens of cases have crumbled The federal agent described her wounds as “boo-boos.” Nevertheless, the Department of Justice aggressively pursued the alleged perpetrator. They jailed Sidney Lori Reid on a charge of felony assault, accusing her of injuring the agent during a July protest of President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown in Washington, D.C. When grand jurors thrice declined to indict the 44-year-old on the felony, prosecutors tried her on a misdemeanor. Body camera footage played at trial revealed that Reid had not intentionally struck the agent. Instead, the agent had scratched her hand on a wall while assisting another agent who had shoved Reid and told her to “shut the f—- up” and “mind her own business.” It took jurors less than two hours to acquit the animal hospital worker. ... — Of the 100 people initially charged with felony assaults on federal agents, 55 saw their charges reduced to misdemeanors or dismissed outright. At least 23 pleaded guilty, most of them to reduced charges in deals with prosecutors that resulted in little or no jail time. More than 40% of the cases involved relatively minor misdemeanor charges, a figure that appears to undermine Trump’s claims that many of those accused are domestic terrorists. — All five defendants, including Reid, who went to trial so far were acquitted. — Prosecutors have successfully secured felony indictments against at least 58 people, some initially charged with misdemeanors. Those people have been accused of an assortment of assaults that include throwing rocks at federal vehicles, and punching or kicking officers. Those cases are awaiting trial. from a june 2025 post "btw, the government lies and misleads. a 413% increase in assault o' ice agents? why not say what were the assaults and how many were assaulted? notice the government didn't claim any ice agents were seriously injured yes? if a child grabs the sleeve o' an ice agent while the agent is arresting the child's parent, that counts as an assault. if a citizen husband attempts to embrace his undocumented wife while she is being arrested and he happens to touch an ice agent in the process, that is an assault. and btw, if there were a 500% increase in la ice arrests over the course o' the past week, then how much would you expect assaults on ice agents to increase over the same period if all other factors remained constant? of the 118 undocumented rounded up by ice at the time o' their press release, only five were gang members, and am gonna remind people that being a gang member is not in and of itself illegal. please note that a handful o' crimes committed by those apprehended by ice is listed, but nowhere does it mention how many people had criminal records. one? why not say the number of criminals unless it is a comical small number?" end tell us how many assaults has been successful prosecuted, 'cause at this point, nobody should believe dhs numbers. as to death threats... with what is going on, we wouldn't be surprised if there is a huge increase in threats to ice, but much like what ice calls an assault v. what a reasonable person identifies as an assault, am assuming ice is taking liberties with their tally o' death threats. seven-year-old watches as their mother is dragged away by ice and she grabs the sleeve o' an ice officer and screams, "go to hell." assault and a death threat, right? HA! Good Fun!
  25. bsg fans are gonna need get their glass fix someplace other than the kennedy center... not that am so out o' touch we believe most bsg music aficionados is kennedy center season ticket holders. 'course the met is where you all hang, right? HA! Good Fun!
