Your Fault: Mount Rainier Might Possibly Maybe Be Shrinking

I love when they go all sciency

Mount Rainier may be shrinking due to climate change: Study

Mount Rainer, the active stratovolcano located in Washington state, is likely shrinking due to climate change, according to new research.

The loss of snow and ice is one of the most visible signs of human-amplified climate change in mountainous regions worldwide. In the contiguous United States, five locations have maintained year-round frozen peaks over the past century — all of them in Washington state.

However, rising global temperatures in recent decades are threatening to change that, not only by accelerating ice decline, but also by altering the elevations of major mountains, including the popular hiking and tourist destination Mount Rainier.

Since the mid-20th century, the summit of Mount Rainier has likely declined more than 20 feet due to snow and ice melt, according to research recently published in the journal Arctic, Antarctic and Alpine Research (AAAR).

May. Likely. Likely.

Is it or isn’t it? If you’re going to make the claim one would think there would be actual scientific facts and data.

Researchers used satellite data, laser measurements and historical photographs to track how the five ice-capped summits have changed since the 1950s, employing new measurement techniques that offer unprecedented accuracy.

“Measurements taken on site used base stations around the state to correct the data. So, it gets the number down to the nearest inch,” Eric Gilbertson, associate teaching professor at Seattle University and co-author of the study, said in a statement released with the study. (snip)

Studying these impacts is challenging because there are currently no comprehensive databases, historical or contemporary, that track ice-capped summits.

So, there are no actual databases to truly measure it against? And there couldn’t be other causes, such as that we’re in a typical Holocene warm period, and Rainier is a volcano? Nah, your fault.

WALW Judge Whines At ICE, Declares Arrests “Unlawful”

Yet another white, affluent, liberal woman judge who will see her ruling overturned on appeal, since it has no basis in federal law

ICE conduct in Colorado “unlawful”: Federal judge restricts how immigration officers can arrest people in the state

Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents’ conduct during arrests in Colorado has been “unlawful,” a federal judge ruled Tuesday in an order that restricts how immigration officers can arrest people in the state.

The preliminary injunction ruling is a significant victory for immigrants rights groups, who sued ICE last month to stop “indiscriminate” arrests and detentions. The lawsuit alleges that ICE agents are arresting and detaining people in Colorado because of their skin color, accent or perceived nationality, without determining flight risk, to fulfill arrest quotas set by the Trump administration.

ICE must repay the bond money posted by three named plaintiffs in the case, all immigrants arrested in Colorado, remove their ankle monitors and stop making warrantless arrests in the state without determining and documenting each person’s flight risk, according to the the ruling by U.S. District Judge R. Brooke Jackson in Denver. (snip)

The ruling could force ICE to curb its arrests of bystanders in targeted operations or its use of large sweeps of apartment buildings and workplaces, where officers do not know the identities of all of the people they are arresting before they arrive.

ICE should take all the people with criminal records that they knew about and house them near the judge’s house

U.S. District Judge R. Brooke Jackson in Denver ruled that Dias Goncalves and two of the other plaintiffs now represent a class that includes all people arrested since Jan. 20, 2025, and people who will be arrested by immigration officers in Colorado “without a warrant and without a pre-arrest, individualized assessment of probable cause that the person poses a flight risk.”

In other words, Judge Brooke is going to want them all released and ankle monitors removed soon.

After a warrantless arrest, immigration officers now must document evidence of a person’s flight risk, including only evidence that they were aware of before making the arrest. That documentation will have to include evidence of a person’s ties to the community that weigh against flight risk.

Under what federal statute is this requirement, because, last time I check, judge’s do not make law. Though she’s giving it a shot. I figure the appeal should be heard next week and Judge Brook’s ruling overturned within 14 days. What is it with these liberal judges that they want illegal immigrants freed, despite what federal law actually says?

Cult Asks What ‘Climate Change’ Means For Your Thanksgiving

I wonder what it meant when it was first established, back during the Little Ice Age?

What Climate Change Means For Your Thanksgiving Dinner

For people around the U.S., Thanksgiving is a chance to enjoy the best an autumn harvest has to offer—from sweet potatoes and pumpkin to turkey and green beans.

It is, while joining with friends and family. Time Magazine should have stopped there.

But as higher temperatures impact growing seasons and extreme weather events wipe out crops, farmers across the country are facing mounting challenges when it comes to growing produce and raising livestock.

“Drought, changing temperature patterns in different parts of the country, natural disasters… all of those things have an impact on the supply of food and agricultural commodities,” says Marcus Coleman, professor of practice at Tulane University whose work focuses on food systems and agriculture.

Climate change is leading to more irregularity when it comes to seasonal weather patterns, which can impact the growing cycle for a number of crops.

Two Thanksgiving staples illustrate these challenges. “Cranberries and apples are both very dependent on specific temperature patterns,” says Coleman. Cranberries, which require cooler temperatures during their growing period to help them ripen before they’re harvested in the fall, can see abnormal blossoming when exposed to inconsistent temperatures. This can lead to lower yields. Meanwhile a late spring frost can kill the blossoms that produce apples.

Turkeys, on the other hand, are particularly sensitive to extreme heat.

“Rising temperature increases heat stress on the poultry,” says Coleman. “From a supply perspective, that could slow down their growth rates or raise the overall [risk for] mortality. It can also drive up the cost of production, because farmers have to put in mechanisms to deal with the heat so as to not impact the output of the birds.”

And a 1.7F increase since 1850 is horrible, you know. It’s just a doomsday cult being doomsday cult. The rest is just more cult, right up to the ending

Knowing where our food is coming from and the challenges farmers are facing can also remind us to be thankful for the food that we have—and to make sure those Thanksgiving leftovers don’t go to waste.

Do they realize that many of the more hardcore Warmists are also the same cranks who hate Thanksgiving (but, also want holiday pay and the day off)?

Trump Designating Some Muslim Brotherhood Groups As Foreign Terrorists

Too bad he cannot designate the Muslim Brotherhood and all their groups as terrorists, because they are, regardless of whether they are pushing violence or using laws, rules, and social mores against nations. The MB are the main source behind most modern Islamic terrorism, starting in the early 20th Century, and their other idea was to infiltrate and take over nations softly, without violence. Ask how it’s going in European nations, like Britain

Trump designates chapters of Muslim Brotherhood ‘foreign terrorist organizations’

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday that begins the process of designating certain chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood “as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists.”

The Muslim Brotherhood is a Sunni Islamist organization founded in Egypt in 1928 that achieved political power in the nation briefly in 2012 before the Muslim Brotherhood-aligned Egyptian government was overthrown in a 2013 coup.

The White House said the designation will help combat the group’s transnational network, which it said fuels terrorism and destabilization campaigns against U.S. interests and allies in the Middle East. A fact sheet accompanying the order cites connections between Jordan’s Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas, which was responsible for the Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel, among other alleged links to terrorist activity.

The designation will allow the United States to target the groups’ U.S.-based finances, collect military intelligence on them and prosecute individuals deemed to have provided “material support” to Muslim Brotherhood chapters with the terrorist designation.

The order calls for Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to recommend chapters for the terrorist designation within 45 days. A fact sheet issued by the White House said chapters in Lebanon, Egypt and Jordan are among those to be considered for the designation.

The MB is banned in Egypt and designated in full as a terrorist organization for a reason. Also in Bahrain, Russia, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates

Unlike the effort in Trump’s first term, the new executive order calls for assigning the terrorist designation to specific chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood. Muslim Brotherhood chapters share a common ideological foundation but lack international organizational unity.

As much as it would be nice to simply designate the MB as a whole, that, unfortunately, doesn’t work within a 1st World Nation nor the U.S. They have to designate specific operational groups. Sadly, you can bet that groups like the Muslim Student Association will not be included, and they are one of the most dangerous, as they spread extremist Islam on campuses across the U.S. Hatred of the U.S., Christians, and Jews. Support of groups like Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, and more.

(Newsweek) The measure would have support from some Democrats, as several have cosponsored legislation to designate the group as a foreign terrorist organization. Five Democrats have signed onto the “Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act of 2025,” introduced by a pair of Republicans, Senator Ted Cruz of Texas and Representative Mario Diaz-Balart of Florida.

The following Democrats have expressed support for the act:

  1. Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania
  2. Representative Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey
  3. Representative Greg Landsman of Ohio
  4. Representative Jared Moskowitz of Florida
  5. Representative Tom Suozzi of New York

Moskowitz urged Trump to “conduct a comprehensive investigation to designate the Muslim Brotherhood a Foreign Terrorist Organization” in a letter sent to his administration in June.

Obviously, you can now expect most Democrats to embrace the Muslim Brotherhood and extremist Islam. Well, more, because Democrats already started taking the side of extremist Islam back during the Bush 43 admin, since their BDS made them do the opposite of Bush in his sorta war on terrorism.

St. Greta Returns To Climate Hysteria, Gets Banned From Venice

Seriously, what was the point? What did this accomplish, other than pissing off the people of Venice?

Greta Thunberg’s latest boneheaded climate stunt gets her banned from Venice after turning its Grand Canal green

They were dyeing for attention.

Climate activist Greta Thunberg and dozens of members of the radical Extinction Rebellion group earned a temporary ban from Venice after pouring dye into its iconic Grand Canal, turning its historic waterways bright green.

The vandalism, which risked permanent damage to the beloved UNESCO World Heritage site, was the environmental activist group’s latest stunt protesting climate change, specifically Italy’s opposition to including restrictions on fossil fuels in a deal struck at the COP30 summit in Brazil on Friday.

The group said it also dumped dye into lakes, canals, rivers and fountains in 10 cities around Italy, which it believes somehow will draw attention to what it calls “the massive effects of climate collapse,” the Washington Examiner reported.

After pouring the dye in Venice, the group hung banners reading “Stop Ecocide” from its famous Rialto Bridge spanning the canal and meandered their way flash-mob-style through tourist crowds decked out in red cloaks and veils and being generally creepy.

Italian officials, who slapped Thunberg and her crew of 35 with a 48-hour ban from the City of Canals and a meager $172 fine for their senseless antics, upbraided them for the “disrespectful act towards our city, its history and its fragility.”

Other than annoying people, this did nothing. Just a bunch of wackos. I wonder if Italy will revoke St. Greta’s visitor permit?

Dems Hold “Congressional Hearings” In Los Angeles On Immigration Or Something

This reminds me of the “impeach Bush” basement hearings Democrats held back during the Bush 43 years: just complete mule fritters and not sanctioned

‘An American nightmare’: L.A. hosts first congressional hearing on effect of immigration raids

There was the U.S. citizen who said she no longer feels safe after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer slammed her to the ground in downtown Los Angeles and later accused her of assault — a case prosecutors dismissed soon after.

The Long Beach mayor, who said immigration agents have seized more than 50 residents off the city’s streets — including 11 in a single afternoon Thursday, among them a gardener tackled inside Polly’s Pies restaurant.

A Boyle Heights pastor who told of a mother who lost her young daughter after a failed organ transplant and was paralyzed over whether to cremate her or bury her, as she wanted, because she feared being deported and unable to visit her child’s grave.

During a congressional oversight hearing Monday in L.A., more than a dozen elected officials, experts and community members laid bare the impact of the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration crackdown. It was an exclusively Democrat event and no one spoke up in support of the raids.

So, it wasn’t actually an oversight hearing, because it was not held at the Capital and Democrats do not run the House. Just whining assed Democrats complaining about Los Federales enforcing federal law.

L.A. Mayor Karen Bass and the top Democrat on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Long Beach), announced last month that Congress was opening “a broad investigation” into arrests of U.S. citizens by ICE officers, as well as a separate probe into immigration raids overall.

Perhaps Bass should worried more about recovery from the Palisades fires, for which really no new homes have been built. And all Dems are trying to do is intimidate ICE officers to not do their jobs.

During the hearing, Garcia announced the launch of the Oversight Immigration Enforcement Dashboard, a tool intended to document verified incidents of possible misconduct and abuse during enforcement operations. As of Monday, there were already more than 250 documented incidents.

Will it document how many criminals ICE and CBP have arrested? How many American citizens have been harmed by illegals? Just remember, Democrats stand for foreigners illegally in the U.S., not for American citizens.

Comrade Mark Kelly Has Just Been Hit With Dept Of War Complaint

I thought I would do a new post rather than adding on to the earlier one regarding the wackos telling young, dumb, impressionable service members to not obey orders they FEEL are illegal

In full

The Department of War has received serious allegations of misconduct against Captain Mark Kelly, USN (Ret.). In accordance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. § 688, and other applicable regulations, a thorough review of these allegations has been initiated to determine further actions, which may include recall to active duty for court-martial proceedings or administrative measures. This matter will be handled in compliance with military law, ensuring due process and impartiality. Further official comments will be limited, to preserve the integrity of the proceedings.

The Department of War reminds all individuals that military retirees remain subject to the UCMJ for applicable offenses, and federal laws such as 18 U.S.C. § 2387 prohibit actions intended to interfere with the loyalty, morale, or good order and discipline of the armed forces. Any violations will be addressed through appropriate legal channels.

All servicemembers are reminded that they have a legal obligation under the UCMJ to obey lawful orders and that orders are presumed to be lawful. A servicemember’s personal philosophy does not justify or excuse the disobedience of an otherwise lawful order.

Obviously, someone made a complaint regard the stupid video, and Kelly should have known better. Perhaps checked the UCMJ before participating in the stupid video due to TDS and taking the side of drug runners.

Unsurprising: Slotkin Admits She Knows Of No Trump Illegal Orders

So, basically, Slotkin and her Comrades made the video telling young, dumb service members to blow off the chain of command and refuse to follow orders, which would end up with the service members getting thrown in the stockade, at a minimum, while the Comrades see no penalities, was all a bunch of mule fritters

Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin Admits That Trump Has Not Issued Illegal Orders to U.S. Military

Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) admitted on Sunday that to her knowledge she was “not aware” that President Donald Trump has issued an illegal order to U.S. Military service members.

During an interview on ABC’s This Week, host Martha Raddatz referenced the White House’s response to a video in which Democrats, such as Slotkin, encourage U.S. military troops to disobey orders. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt previously accused Democrats of suggesting that Trump “has given illegal orders, which he has not.”

When asked if Leavitt’s answer was “accurate,” Slotkin explained that Democrats put the statement out because they allegedly had a “sheer number” of troops and young officers question what they “should do.”

“Let’s talk right now. Do you believe President Trump has issued any illegal orders?” Raddatz asked.

“To my knowledge, I am not aware of things that are illegal — but certainly there are some legal gymnastics that are going on with these Caribbean strikes, and everything related to Venezuela,” Slotkin answered.

So, this is all about the Trump admin blowing up drug running boats from Venezuela? This is whom Democrats are caring about? They created all this furor to defend drug runners? Hell of a hill to die on.

In a previous post on Truth Social, Trump suggested that the Democrat lawmakers who encouraged U.S. troops to disobey his orders should be jailed.

“THE TRAITORS THAT TOLD THE MILITARY TO DISOBEY MY ORDERS SHOULD BE IN JAIL RIGHT NOW, NOT ROAMING THE FAKE NEWS NETWORKS TRYING TO EXPLAIN THAT WHAT THEY SAID WAS OKAY,” Trump wrote in his post on Saturday. “IT WASN’T, AND NEVER WILL BE! IT WAS SEDITION AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL, AND SEDITION IS A MAJOR CRIME. THERE CAN BE NO OTHER INTERPRETATION OF WHAT THEY SAID!”

I suggest that if any service member gets in trouble for doing what the Comrades said to do should face the same penalties.
