https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/us/politics/trump-jews-penn-list-judge.html Federal Judge Approves Trump Effort to Obtain List of Jews From Penn ... “Though ineptly worded, the request had an understandable purpose — to obtain in a narrowly tailored way, as opposed to seeking information on all university employees, information on individuals in Penn’s Jewish community who could have experienced or witnessed antisemitism in the workplace,” he wrote. The judge, however, said that the university would not have to reveal any employee’s connection to “a specific Jewish-related organization.”

[image: 71gh4uLL13L._SL1500_.jpg] Quite an interesting book. The guy is an equal opportunity cynic on who is at fault; slams pretty much every administration in the 2000's. Soldiers get addicted to drugs (both prescribed and illegal) and alcohol to keep them energized. Then they need other drugs to help numb the pain from the things they see and do. Focusing on Fort Bragg, N.C., home to Delta Force and other elite military units, Harp uncovers a culture steeped in drug trafficking, weapons theft, and cover-ups. Drawing on extensive interviews and documentation, Harp alleges that soldiers returning to Fort Bragg from Afghanistan smuggled opioids and other narcotics into the U.S., sometimes in collaboration with Mexican cartels, and engaged in reckless, often violent behavior on the base—much of it fueled by substance abuse—that the military swept under the rug. A detailed history of the Army's entanglement with Afghanistan's opium trade and harrowing accounts of drug-fueled parties at Fort Bragg full of racist behavior frame Harp's discovery of a shocking number of deaths on the base: 109 from 2020 to 2021 alone, many of them unexplained. Harp's investigative rigor and visceral storytelling make this a disturbing must-read for anyone seeking to understand the full cost of America's overseas conflicts. It was a good companion to the book I read about the drug trade in the Gold Triangle in Myanmar. https://nodebb.the-new-coffee-room.club/topic/95/what-are-you-reading-now/777?_=1774917935468

I heard one song-in a light tenor. His voice (one of the greatest ever) broke a bit. Here's a song from EARLY Fleetwood Mac that mentions McCartney's voice: Link to video I bought this album when it came out.

Their system punished me for using the legal tender of the land! And is trying to force me to use Credit Cards m, which is against my religion!

One can accept the reason advertised as to why they shut this down to only allow you to go back to generations of relationships to acquire this citizenship while his and mine are three. The advertised claim is that most of these people who acquired the citizenship, never intended to move and live in Italy anyways, and while this may be true, I sense that the timing of this edict was more intended to stop what they foresee as a huge influx of Americans desiring to get out of the USA while getting is good. And my theory goes against my grain in that I abhor statements made by US citizens of anything oppressive that occurs globally and channeling it into some conspiracy, only meant for Americans, take Covid, for example. If one recalls, the first country to take a major hit once Covid was released to the world was in fact Italy. reason number 3537 that Trump has no business handling the reigns of power in the United States as he played along with this conspiracy, so as to downplay his incompetence and handling it when it first hit our shores. He let Maga run the ball with that one and kept patting them on the head, encouraging them. And it was then that I started having a huge distaste for these people and realized how truly selfish they all are in that they defied at every turn any type of quarantine restrictions placed upon them as an assault on their free will

Far less so than I was expecting. A couple people cutting in line with sob stories. People were pretty calm though. Partly I think because it was expected (that changed my outlook considerably) and partly (I speculate) there was a little bit of ‘we’re all in this moment together’ spirit like you see during a big weather event or tragedy of some kind, though I don’t want to exaggerate that too much. The most stressful part was when the line was snaking through the front atrium. It didn’t look like a line, it looked like a crowd. The only thing that made it a line was everyone knowing who was in front of them and who was behind.

Hydroplane???? Boat????
