   The increase in border crossings is directly proportional to how loud, long, and frequently Trump and his mendacious MAGAts have invited wanna-be immigrants to test the borders with their constant barrage of insistence that “The borders are open!”

   “My, my, my… The Count seems to have hit a nerve with all this nit picking, words-in-mouth, out of his wazoo assumptions and all this hatred.”

   You are disgusting.

   NOTE: 2 of your 3 cites are hard-right Conservative mouthpieces. The third one is misused.

   Here’s NotFree once again, trying desperately to sow the seeds of doubt and of unsupported or irrelevant blather to try and justify why this country needs a dictator to make all our decisions for us. Please go crawl back in your hole.

   “Project 2025 is the blueprint …”

   And most of its content has been transferred into Agenda 47, the MAGAts text for what to do if Trump is re=elected.

   “I think he knows it’s about him …”

   Oh, he does. It’s part of the phantasmagoria that makes him flee down the road …

   Except …

   There are things that can be done to prevent a noticeable infection – like get your shots! And then there are things you can do to mitigate it if you get it anyway, like taking Paxlovil.

   Please, people, enough of us have died of this already. Don’t add to the mortality by listening to the idiot anti-vaxers.

   This statement was made many years ago. Today’s house insurance policies, and the courts, would not allow that to be done without fixing the blame on a scam attempt.

   Interestingly, the neighbor built sea-going sailing craft – more than 18’ long. A couple years later, he was out sailing a current just-completed build on its maiden voyage on Lake Superior. He got caught by a severe storm outside the nearest harbour on the open water. The sailboat did a rolling capsize trick quite similar to the recent one done by the super-yacht Bayesian near Porticello Sicily, and he drowned. The craft was found and raised, almost undamaged, but his body never was found.

   Speaking of the Bayesian , a note. The news articles say it may have been hit “by a tornado”. It was not, and could not have been. Why?

   Because a tight rotational wind-event activity over water is rightfully called a “water-spout” because it sucks up huge volumes of water. If the rotational moment of that wind event is interrupted (like by a yacht sail), and the rotation stops or even slows, the waterspout instantly loses lift on the water it contains.

   That huge volume of water, slamming down and sideways, can overpower the upright balance action of the keel (and ballast) on the stoutest and largest of sailing craft. It not only rotates the craft along its bow-to-stern axis, it literally pounds it under the surface below tons of water, submerging it, and holding it there long enough to flood it beyond the craft’s ability to rise buoyantly back to the surface and right itself. That well may have been what happened to the Bayesian .

   “Whatever you are on, I don’t want any.”

   Truth? Facts?

   “Such a hateful person.”

   Yes, I agree. Trump is.

   “Trump is not going to be any more of a dictator than he was the first time around.”

   Somehow, I had hoped he might be less. For any sane person his own recent public statements preclude believing that.

   “Most of what you are saying is MSM lies.”

   Name some particular lies.

   “So many people including MSM are out to get him and will do anything to stop him.”

   True, due to his own lies, antisocial behavior, and unlawful activities. No one is above the law.

   “Two puppets have already tried to kill him.”

   Whose? They both were Republicans.

   “Have a nice day.”

   Oh, I will, thank you. You, on the other hand, have to live with your own lies and inequities. I wish you better.

    “… The Soup Nazi …”

    I hold real antipathy about any use of the term “Nazi” except for descriptions of the 1930 and 1940s German political party and actual, valid comparisons to the same. For instance, claiming that Trump sounds like a Nazi because he uses the same language and expresses the same dictatorial principles.

    That term never should be used flippantly, such as junior-high kids do about someone being a “spelling Nazi” or for some similar minor expression of disdain. The term is far too loaded with horrendous connotations to be used so casually.
