OPEN THREAD: Tuesday’s groovy.

RUMORS OF A DESPERATE MANPOWER SHORTAGE ARE JUST PROPAGANDA: Russian Space Force Deployed Against Ukraine in Kursk. “So what is the VKS up to these days? Developing and launching hunter-killer satellites into orbit? Searching for extraterrestrials? Perhaps some of them are, but not all of them. In fact, a bunch of them have now been deployed to the Kursk Oblast to fight off Ukraine’s surprisingly persistent incursion. Russia is claiming that the temporary transfer was required to deal with an unexpected manpower shortage in the region. Even some of the servicemen previously assigned to a Russian spaceport have been transferred to the front and put on infantry duty.”

HAHA:

MORE ON THAT CAR SEATS AS CONTRACEPTION STUDY. “The obvious direct step is to eliminate any and all car seat requirements beyond two years of age, or at least within three or four years of age. The vast majority of the damage done by car seat mandates happens after age four and almost all of it happens after age three, whereas the vast majority of the safety benefits (or, more likely, all of them) happen by age two and certainly by age four.”

TRIBUTE TO ADAM ANDRZEJEWSKI: It’s been a tough day, my friends, but my obit for Adam Andrzejewski is live on The Epoch Times. Please give it a read and share it. His great and effective labors on behalf of liberty deserve to be known far and wide.

AND THEY SAID TRUMP’S TWEETS WERE MEAN: Andy Beshear Hopes Somebody Rapes J.D. Vance’s Wife or Daughter.

The Democrat Party is filled with trash people.

That’s not to say every Democrat is trash; just an abnormally large number of them are disgusting, nasty, vile, hateful liars whose fondest wish is to harm people they disagree with.

They want to cancel them, put them in jail, lock them in their homes, shame them for not wearing masks, force them to inject themselves with experimental gene therapies, and…have their family members raped.

And that’s just the party leaders. Look outside at the protesters, and they want to murder Jews.

What a nice group of people.

“Nasty” was Trump’s word for Hillary Clinton in 2016. It deserves wider currency.

DISPATCHES FROM AL-BRITANNIA:

That kind of reception is usually reserved for child molesters, not [checks notes] Facebook users.

WOEING: Boeing grounds entire 777X test fleet after discovering engine defect.

The 777X, Boeing’s latest and most state-of-the-art aircraft, first took to the sky in 2020 but faced delays in certification by the Federal Aviation Administration, the Seattle Times reported.

The FAA this summer gave the plane the go-ahead for test flights needed before launching passenger service.

Boeing had planned to deliver the fleet in 2025, but the discovery of a failed component connected to the jet’s engine has some buyers not expecting the jet until mid-2026.

The new GE9X engines are made by GE, not Boeing, but Boeing just can’t seem to catch a break.

CORN, POPPED: Democrat Civil War Watch: Biden’s Revenge Is Coming. “Make no mistake: Biden, and a handful of advisers in his inner circle, are still licking their wounds after the party putsch to get him out of the race.”
