Can India and Pakistan Back Away From the Abyss of Nuclear War? India and Pakistan seem to move inexorably toward war as rhetoric and retaliatory action were ratcheted up since a bloody massacre of 26 people by the Pakistan-sponsored group called Kashmir Resistance on Tuesday; see Terror in India: Attack Leaves Dozens Dead During JD Vance's Visit – RedState. This is not the first terror attack in Kashmir, but this one was in a tourist spot, and eyewitness reports say that the gunmen singled out non-Muslims for execution. Here's the state of play. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has vowed vengeance. In a rally, he said, "I say to the whole world: India will identify, track and punish every terrorist and their backers." The backers are, of course, Pakistan's intelligence and military apparatus. [...] https://redstate.com/streiff/2025/04/27/india-and-pakistan-meander-toward-war-number-five-n2188355

Do You Have 'Ghost Poops'? Here's What That Says About Your Health. "Ghost poops" might sound like an inherently scary type of bowel movement, but according to gastroenterologists, they're actually quite healthy. Ghost poops are bowel movements that leave no skid marks in the toilet bowl or streaks on your toilet paper. Julia Barten, a physical therapist at the Stanford Pelvic Health Center, calls these "unicorn poops" or "no wipers. Why? "Because the stool is so well formed that there's no remnant fecal matter left behind when you wipe," she said. In other words: They're the perfect poo. Here's what causes ghost poops — and what they say about your overall health: [...] https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/ghost-poops-heres-says-health-110030843.html

This is a great article, with full details of what really happened. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Will Judge Dugan become the next hero of the resistance? The Trump administration's campaign against sanctuary jurisdictions took a big step forward on Friday when federal agents arrested a county judge in Milwaukee after the judge allegedly helped an illegal immigrant accused of multiple crimes hide from federal immigration officials who had come to detain him. The judge is Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan. The illegal immigrant is Eduardo Flores-Ruiz. According to court documents, Flores-Ruiz, a Mexican, came illegally to the United States more than a dozen years ago. Immigration authorities issued a final removal order for him in January 2013. He was deported but at some point reentered the U.S. illegally. Now, he is still in the U.S. illegally, and he is also charged with domestic violence — three counts known as battery-domestic abuse-infliction of physical pain or injury. By the way, apart from the current crimes he is accused of, crossing into the U.S. illegally is punishable by up to six months in prison. Doing it again after being deported is punishable by up to two years behind bars. Here is what happened on April 18 in the Milwaukee County Courthouse, according to an affidavit from an FBI agent in the case. Flores-Ruiz was scheduled to have a pretrial hearing in the domestic violence case. When U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials heard about it, they decided to go there with an arrest warrant for Flores-Ruiz that would surely result in his deportation.

Biden's blueprint to target parents and traditional Catholics Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified a bombshell Biden administration documentthis week, a blueprint for combating "domestic terrorism," an umbrella term encompassing parents who attended school board meetings or Catholics who favored the traditional liturgy. This 2021 document, called the Strategic Implementation Plan for Countering Domestic Terrorism, reveals a coordinated effort to target political opponents under the guise of national security. Its policy framework appears designed to silence and marginalize conservative viewpoints through a combination of speech monitoring, censorship, financial punishment, and gun control measures that threaten constitutional protections. It totally and disturbingly disregards the difference between lawful expression and criminal intent. It explicitly directed the Justice Department, FBI, and Department of Homeland Security to monitor "incidents of concerning non-criminal behavior." Whereas law enforcement normally monitors criminal acts or behaviors that demonstrate a clear intent to commit a crime, this directive ordered authorities to target lawful behavior. By equating lawful speech with extremism, the plan set a dangerous precedent for suppressing speech.

Extremely interesting and informative. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A FIRST LADY WHO DESERVES A SECOND LOOK The last Saturday in April marks National First Ladies Day. On this occasion, Grace Coolidge is likely to suffer from unjust neglect—much like her husband. Just as historians tend to dismiss or ignore President Calvin Coolidge, they pay too little attention to his wife. Grace was a fitting name for a woman known for her warmth and charm. Biographer Robert Ferrell noted Grace Coolidge's "ability to meet anyone and make that person feel at home, that the first lady knew that individual as a friend." While in the White House and for years afterward, Mrs. Coolidge had, in Ferrell's words, "a wondrous hold on the American people." The vivacious Grace posed a sharp contrast with her shy, taciturn husband. In her autobiography, Mrs. Coolidge acknowledged that marriage "has seldom united two people of more vastly different temperaments and tastes." Grace Coolidge's tastes made her a figure of admiration. [...] https://www.coolidgereview.com/articles/underappreciated-first-lady

Doctors still routinely suggest two meals of mackerel or salmon per week. If the below is as sound a study as it appears to be, it's good news. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fish Oil Supplements Shown to Be More Effective Than Fish for Getting Optimal Omega-3 Intake In a fascinating new study, several dozen participants were separated into groups and fed either a fish oil supplement or fish itself, and the supplement proved more effective at delivering omega-3 fatty acids into the body than the actual fish. It was for years the norm, and likely still is in some quarters, for physicians to recommend trying to get all vital nutrients from foods, and not to rely on supplements. But the study at least has shown this to be wrong, as both white and oily fish weren't able to replicate some of the more penetrative effects of omega-3 from a supplement. As a result, those who can't afford to eat cod or salmon every day may need not worry about it. The strength of the study is that it was double-blinded and placebo-controlled, meaning that neither the participants nor the scientists knew who got the fish oil and who ate fish, and in what combinations, a technique known as the "gold standard" in scientific research. Analyzing the data after the study had been concluded revealed that [...] https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/fish-oil-supplements-shown-to-be-more-effective-than-fish-for-getting-optimal-omega-3-intake/

Did they ever nail it... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Man Saves Hundreds Of Thousands In Student Loans By Just Learning How To Hate Jews On The Internet MILLVILLE, NJ — According to sources, college dropout Jack Doulton saved hundreds of thousands of dollars on student loans by simply learning how to hate Jews online for free. The young man had previously had his sights set on earning a degree from a prestigious educational institution before coming to the realization that he could save a fortune by teaching himself how to hate Israel at home. "I was all set to go to university, but I realized I could just learn all about hating Jews from people on the Internet," Doulton said.

Federal Judge Travels Back In Time To Overturn Trump's Birth WASHINGTON, D.C. — According to newly released court documents, a federal judge invented time travel and transported himself to New York in 1946 so he could overturn President Donald Trump's birth. According to witness accounts from 1946, Judge Samuel Eldridge surprised doctors when he entered the delivery room and declared, "The D.C. District Court hereby declares Trump's birth null and void." As a result of the court order, baby Trump was slowly erased from existence, undoing all MAGA policy he would spearhead later in his life. The medical staff was reportedly outraged by the unilateral court ruling. "You're supposed to be [...] https://babylonbee.com/news/federal-judge-travels-back-in-time-to-overturn-trumps-birth

I too find these delays troubling. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Time for Pam Bondi to get a move on In just under three weeks, the political establishment demonstrated its speed and ruthlessness when it came to taking down former national security adviser Mike Flynn. Freshly appointed and barely settled into his role, Flynn was the target of a coordinated sting operation that most now know was highly illegal. Flynn was pressured into resignation and publicly humiliated. Two months later, the out-of-power political class installed Robert Mueller as special counsel. Mueller, in turn, tapped Rod Rosenstein — the very man who signed off on those dubious FISA warrant renewals that followed — to lead the charge. Meanwhile, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, in a display of weakness that still reverberates, recused himself, handing over control of a historic investigation to those with glaring conflicts of interest. Rosenstein had far more reason to recuse himself than did Sessions. The contrast between that rapid, calculated maneuver and the current behavior of Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI director Kash Patel is striking — and troubling. More than three months have passed [...] https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2025/04/time_for_pam_bondi_to_get_a_move_on.html

Just read this elsewhere. Tragic.

Just be sure to cancel the return leg as a priority. Airlines sometimes forget to correct their flight manifests. In these instances, the K-1 recipient can be listed as a passenger on a flight out of the U.S. If travel permission or the green card isn't yet in hand, it causes grave headaches: how do you prove a negative (that you weren't on a flight leaving the U.S.)? Canceling the return can easily be overlooked amidst the excitement and uproar of moving, but be sure to do it. Make note of when you called the airline (date and time), whom you spoke with, and what the assurances were -- and keep these notes with your most important immigration papers.

This is what all human females look like to a handsome, desirable, irresistible Central Chimpanzee, see and si and man.
