The Trump effect keeps on shattering the 'Matrix'.

Have we so soon forgotten 45-46-47, The Law of War Manual, Latex Biden, Nuclear Command retention through 46, Trump and Putin's Alaska meeting, etc etc.

My guess is that the now deleted X/Tweet originally posted by Jaak without comment at the beginning of these ten posts is the tweet that is also reported, in useful detail by Rizotto in Day 1 of Trump's Presidency - Post #1631

Even Piers Morgan has urged Trump to delete this.

Crossed the line there. Totally unnecessary. Should definitely delete it and apologize to the Reiner family.

Agreed that it isn't very tasteful, but context is everything. See here:

"MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center director Nuno F.G. Loureiro, 47, was fatally shot at his Brookline, Massachusetts home on December 15, 2025. Authorities confirmed an active homicide investigation is underway, but no suspects or motives have been released. Loureiro, a leading nuclear physicist, was appointed director of MIT's Plasma Science and Fusion Center in May 2024, overseeing cutting-edge fusion energy research with national security implications. His death has raised questions about potential targeted motives, as high-profile scientists have been targeted internationally in the past. Police are asking for any information from the public while investigations continue."

Again on Rob Reiner. Important to know.

See this post if you haven’t already, then watch this, cross-posted from the same thread. Original post by mountain_jim.

The clip in question copied below is from a 2018 CNN event (of course it was CNN!) titled "Democracy Under Attack".

Rob Reiner hobnobbing with Brennan and Clapper – two of the biggest swamp rats in Washington.

The rubbish that pours from their gobs is incredible. Reiner hangs on their every word. Brennan and Clapper wax lyrical about democracy, patriotism, and the sanctity of the constitution. Those two! What a joke. A normal person would wrinkle their nose at the sour, fetid taste of their lies. Instead, Reiner smiles, licks his lips and asks to be spoon-fed more.

Lord above, why can't these Hollywood people just stick to making movies?! One answer might be: they have no choice. Being deeply compromised – caught by CIA-ran pedo traps – they're forced (blackmailed) to participate in deep state social engineering ops. Think, Ellen, think Whoopi, think De Niro, and Stephen King, an entire galaxy of stars who constantly spew the same democrat [TDS] talking points, sing from the same deranged hymn sheet.

The takeaway has to be – Reiner was a CIA asset, insofar as useful idiots are assets.

Here is Rob Reiner conspiring w. John Brennan and Jim Clapper to overthrow the democratically-elected President Trump as part of the Russiagate Conspiracy.

What was Reiner's connection to the CIA?

Who financed this op?

I wasn't sure where to put the information gleaned from a survey of 25 countries (so, obviously, surveys were not possible in many places), measuring generosity. (People in countries answered a comprehensive set of questions.) The results may surprise you.

What was measured? AI gives a summary of three surveys :

Remitly Study (2025): Used the Interpersonal Generosity Scale (empathy, emotional support, patience, kindness) and placed South Africa first, the Philippines second, and the USA third.
World Giving Index (2024): Evaluates helping strangers, donating money, and volunteering time, crowning Indonesia as number one.
CEOWORLD Magazine Survey: Focused on tipping, ranking the USA as the most generous in that specific behavior.

More about the three countries and what these surveys reveal about them:

South Africa: Tops global lists for emotional generosity, showing high empathy, caring about others' happiness, and strong community support (lift clubs, food drives), according to Remitly's 2025 study on the Interpersonal Generosity Scale.
Indonesia: Ranked highly in overall giving, with one report noting it as the world's most generous country for the fourth time by the 2024 World Giving Index.
USA: Ranks third in emotional generosity (Remitly study) but leads in tipping generosity (CEOWORLD Magazine survey) and shows high participation in volunteering,* reflecting cultural values of giving back, says Cape Town ETC.

These surveys reveal that generosity manifests differently across cultures, from deep empathy in South Africa to communal support in the Philippines and active volunteering in the US ...

* There is a strong culture of volunteering in the USA, but celebrities such as the Sussexes turn up for less than an hour for a photo of (taking their personal photographer with them) and turn up at galas wearing expensive designer gear, pose for cameras and leave as soon as possible. They would answer a questionnaire in a way to present themselves as having high participation in volunteering (a lot of celebs do this). So, that is the downside, bit I suspect that a lot of food kitchens etc. are only able to function because so many ordinary people who are not looking for a photo op are always willing to volunteer.

The top results in the Remitly study (out of a total score of 60):

https://www.capetownetc.com/lifestyl...erous-country/

South Africa: 51.57
Philippines: 50.2
United States: 49.23
Ireland: 48.4
Canada: 48.03
Portugal: 47.75
Greece: 47.62
United Kingdom: 47.53
Australia: 47.43
Mexico: 47.29

Those who are adamantly against multi-culturalism may be interested to see what kind of society emerges from a strongly multi-cultural society (also with recent trauma in it's history). The results of such a survey in Gaza might surprise us!

I guess in strong multicultural society empathy goes hand in hand with r*pe and violence ?

South Africa has one of the highest violent crime rates in the world, with a crime index of 74.7 according to the Numbeo 2025 ranking, placing it among the least safe countries globally.
The country's murder rate is particularly high, with 34 murders per 100,000 people, which is 12 times higher than the United States' rate of 5.9 per 100,000.
In 2021, South Africa's crime rate per 100,000 population was 41.87, reflecting a 23.26% increase from the previous year.

Intentional homicides, which include killings due to domestic disputes, land conflicts, gang violence, and predatory attacks, are a major component of the country's crime statistics.
In 2022, South Africa recorded approximately 15,940 murders, ranking third globally, and 66,196 reported rapes, the second-highest number worldwide.
The rape rate in South Africa is 132.4 per 100,000 people, five times higher than the United States' rate of 27.3.

The country also faces significant challenges with property crimes, including 494.5 robberies per 100,000 people—three times higher than in the United States—and 852.8 burglaries per 100,000 people, the highest globally.
Public perception of crime is high, with 78.12% of South Africans believing crime has increased over the past three years, and 75.68% expressing worry about being attacked, which is 80% higher than in the United States.

Plane-tuber Dan Gryder has announced his opinion on the probable cause of the jet crash that took NASCAR great Greg Biffle and his family, their pilot and his son, and one other passenger. He is the only aircraft crash analyst, that I’ve seen, to speculate on that cause. He vigorously and imo masterfully defends this decision.

He is calling “Pilot error”. Has pretty harsh judgement on the pilot, who flew USAF heavies and airliners in previous careers.

Main segment of this weekly report on mostly-preventable general aviation fatal incidents, goes from 10:30/34:20 to the end.

Dan is something of a hot potato in the crash analyst community, and his words have gotten him in legal trouble. But he got his $1m “summary judgement” tossed, and I have confidence in his thought. Guy has consistently explained his motivations, going back to the death of his wife, and I consider him a kind of rough but true angel.

Only 2 slots left, if Dan’s goal of 12 per month average of fatal gen av incidents would come true. He says, Please, folks, stop killing yourselves in stupid ways. Train for emergency scenarios, fly with a defined minimum manoeuvring speed, and “pick one” of weather, night, icing, or (high) terrain.

Jaak, I will try to be polite. The majority of South Africans are VICTIMS of crime and violence, not perpetrators. You are stereotyping an entire nation (just like the appalling stereotyping of Somalians by Tucker Carlson who then goes to great lengths to claim that he does not stereotype people because it is un Christain). South Africa is also a multicultural society. The result is a population high on empathy and highly tolerant of, even interested in, cultural differences. You are using a logical fallacy to defend racist stereotyping. Do you also insist that Americans, who are top of the list as most generous in tipping, and very high in volunteering, cannot possibly be so because America has attacked and invaded more countries and killed more people than any other country since the Second World War? Are you going to disparage and dismiss American material generosity and eagerness to help the poor* because USA as a country is a global destructive bully? The complexity of paradox and multi-culturalism does not serve the Israeli empire, and many in the West?

* There is a difference between charity (USA) and Ubuntu (RSA), but both are good, and if you cannot recognize those features of those two peoples as good and notable, then you are the problem, not Americans nor South Africans.(I myself have to remind myself sometimes that despite the narcissism and delusions of grandeur, there are a lot of good and generous people in the USA.)

[Bruce G Charlton]

Off topic, I'm afraid - but

@sdv - I regard yours as a pretty outrageous and unprincipled ad hominem response to Jaak's citing of apparently objective adverse data about South Africa (the gist of which I have heard confirmed by many apparently reliable contacts, including among my circle, over the past couple of decades or more)! Averages - by definition - refer to groups, not individuals - and individual deviations from the average do not invalidate average differences. Indeed averages are what even the best public policy is always based upon. Causation is another matter, blame another matter again.

*

History teaches us that it is a very unusual situation for any significantly multicultural society to cohere - and for this to happen seems to require a strong and shared religious belief. This used to be possible sometimes in the past, in some empires; but does not seem to apply anywhere at present.

Another very significant factor is the specific identity of the races/ ethnicities/ cultures that are living side by side within the same nation: some are much more troublesome and less friendly than others (to put it mildly) - and average differences at the group level are much larger and much more consistent across history and around the world than most people realize. It also makes a difference how similar are the specific races/ ethnicities/ cultures - and their histories; when it comes to getting along.

Furthermore, there is the apparent fact that the global and national leadership class are actively and overall promoting hatred, resentment, fear, exploitation, and violence between races/ ethnicities/ cultures (as well as between social classes, men and women, and different sexual identities.

The future prospects of almost any humane, functional, cohesive multi-cultural society therefore seem bleak, to say the least of it!

The biggest fallacy is the proposition that the government of the US is sovereign and is serving the wishes of the people.
There are whole threads devoted to debunking those suppositions...

(Ebikes with lithium batteries in China have been causing lots of very dangerous explosions and fires.
But the CCP has been encouraging people to take on jobs delivering food, etc on EBikes because good jobs are so scarce.
And because the economy is so bad, lots of people have been using EBikes for daily transportation instead of cars.
But now EBikes have been banned by the CCP and the police are confiscating them with no compensation to the owners, and selling them to Africa.
Even though it's very dangerous to rebel in China, it looks like there will be BIG public protests upcoming.)

Tragic end, to a bucket-list send*.

So far, all we have are the bare bones of this story. Might be all we’ll ever get.

RIP to the three mission-crew, and the two Czech climbers that were briefly rescued.

This vid runs like a regular news post, 9 million subs, and is that a South African accent? Gets very judgemental, points to lax standards of aircraft maintenance in the country.

*”send” is what climbers call making a particular ascent. It’s a verb.

A tragic helicopter crash on Mount Kilimanjaro has killed five people during a medical rescue mission in Tanzania. The aircraft went down at an altitude of around 4,700 metres on one of the mountain’s most popular climbing routes. Authorities confirmed there were no survivors. Those on board included two Czech tourists, a Tanzanian doctor and tour guide, and a Zimbabwean pilot. The cause of the crash is still unknown, with investigations underway in line with international aviation safety standards. The incident has renewed global attention on air safety in Tanzania, following recent European Union warnings and past fatal air accidents in the country.

'Incredible victory': Federal judge prohibits trans-related grooming efforts in California schools - December 23, 2025



Judge Roger Benitez issued a permanent injunction against policies that require educators to keep parents in the dark or indulge gender delusions.

Democrat policies proudly championed in California by Gov. Gavin Newsom have for years kept parents in the dark about their children's mental health and personal circumstances — particularly about whether their kids are masquerading as members of the opposite sex at school and undergoing a so-called "social transition" with the help of school staff.

Unwilling to lie to parents in violation of their faith and ethics, and facing the prospect of retaliation or dismissal over their dissent, Christian educators Elizabeth Mirabelli and Lori West filed a lawsuit in 2023 with the help of the religious liberty group the Thomas More Society.

By October, their legal challenge targeting secretive, grooming transgender policies across the state had evolved into a class-action lawsuit involving other adversely impacted teachers as well as parents.

U.S. District Court Judge Roger Benitez delivered Democrat officials and other gender ideologues a big upset on Monday, ruling in favor of the plaintiffs and against the grooming regime.

Benitez noted at the outset of his 52-page ruling that long before the advent of compulsory education in the U.S., "parents have carried out their rights and responsibility to direct the general and medical care and religious upbringing of their child."

"It is a right and a responsibility that parents still hold," said the judge.

Benitez affirmed that "parents have a right to receive gender information and teachers have a right to provide to parents accurate information about a child's gender identity" — rights that Benitez confirmed have been violated by California officials.

According to Benitez, "the parental exclusion policies create a trifecta of harm." For starters,

they harm the child who needs parental guidance and possibly mental health intervention to determine if the incongruence is organic or whether it is the result of bullying, peer pressure, or a fleeting impulse. They harm the parents by depriving them of the long-recognized Fourteenth Amendment right to care, guide, and make healthcare decisions for their children, and by substantially burdening many parents’ First Amendment right to train their children in their sincerely held religious beliefs. And finally, they harm teachers who are compelled to violate the [sic] sincerely held beliefs and the parent’s rights by forcing them to conceal information they feel is critical for the welfare of their students.

The Small Business Administration Drops HAMMER on Somali Fraud, Cuts Off All Minnesota

SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler tells me she is “disgusted and sickened” by Nick Shirley’s expose of Somali small business fraud and is taking immediate action. SBA is cutting off and clawing back ALL SBA grants to Minnesota, effective immediately.

She says this is due to Tim Walz refusal to enforce laws governing small businesses and the Governors allowance and facilitation of fraud.

Loeffler tells me that SBA was able to uncover half a billion dollars of fraud “within days” of investigating Minnesota.

She notes the Trump administration will focus on the “state officials” who built an “industrial-scale crime ring to rip off hardworking Americans.”

“The scope of this international scam is still unknown, likely in the billions. Pending further review, SBA is freezing all grant funding to the state in order to stop the rampant waste of taxpayer dollars and uncover the full depth of fraud,” @SBA_Kelly tells me.

This is how Somali fraud is crippling opportunity for native, law abiding Minnesotans.

https://x.com/bennyjohnson/status/20...372017733?s=20

FBI Director Kash Patel dropped a major bombshell on the massive Minnesota fraud scandal on Sunday, revealing that the FBI is pushing for denaturalization and deportation of many involved in the $250 million scheme that ripped off taxpayer dollars meant for hungry kids during COVID. Patel made it clear this is “just the tip of a very large iceberg,” with investigations ramping up to expose even more corruption in federal programs.

The update from the Federal Road Safety Corps in Nigeria says a Lexus Jeep involved in the incident was suspected to be travelling "beyond the legally prescribed speed limit".

They say the car lost control during "an overtaking manoeuvre" and crashed into a stationary truck by the side of the road.

Just a footnote here that might be helpful to some! I'm very out of touch with much of UK news (and I also don't follow boxing), so I have to confess I didn't even know who Anthony Joshua was.

Here's a BBC article:

Anthony Joshua injured in Nigeria car crash that killed two team members

British heavyweight boxer Anthony Joshua has been injured in a car crash in Nigeria, which killed two members of his team.

The former world champion was a passenger in a vehicle that collided with a stationary truck on a major expressway in Ogun State, near Lagos.

The two men who died were Joshua's friends and team members Sina Ghami and Latif "Latz" Ayodele, the boxer's promoter Matchroom Boxing said in a statement.

It added that Joshua was in stable condition in hospital, where he was taken for "checks and treatment" and will remain for observation.
