Today’s stupidity offering is LOL! funny. The video below is of some Congressman from Florida grilling one Sarah Rogers, Undersecretary of State, about yet another of millions of wastes of millions of taxpayer dollars, each.
Undersecretary Rogers is not the complete woke fool she appears. It turns out, Trump picked this lady, now that this term he’s been hiring mostly decent… at least not the enemy, and she has a good background. From her State Dept. web page:
Under Secretary Rogers joins the Trump administration following a career as a law-firm partner and free speech activist. In 2024, she litigated a winning Supreme Court appeal under the First Amendment challenging the “debanking” of disfavored speakers by hostile regulators. She also spearheaded and supported challenges to social media censorship and the weaponization of law enforcement, including in connection with the successful appeal of the wrongful conviction of Douglass Mackey and the online censorship of Charlie Kirk.Man, I hope that doesn’t ruin this fun for you. It sounds like Mrs. Rogers is trying to defend another US Gov’t woke scam, but it’s a holdover from Dark Brandon’s Presidency. Still, what the…?!
Heh! She took an upper-level Critical Theory class, so she don’t sound like no bimbo.
“Queering the map” is not only gay because of… gay, but the use of nouns as verbs (e.g., “cope”, “cringe”) makes this double gay. That really gays up the sentence.
So now, Trump - no, wait, he doesn’t apologize for anything - the US State Department, that is, will have to apologize to the people of Czechia and Slovakia. Or are they really that gay over there to where the colors of the maps are running like that pride flag? It would have been easier if a bimbo had made this gaffe 33 years ago … would have taken only a single apology, hence saving travel expenses… yeah, saving money… haha, yes, we got the accountants working in shifts!
You know what, I did have a footnote for that “colors of the maps are running” line, but it’s time again for the whole Al Stewart song. My guess is that his On the Border* is about the Spanish Civil War, but I could be wrong. Al Stewart may not even know, but then, he IS a history buff and inventor of the History Rock genre.
That’s Peter White playing that Spanish guitar. Here are just a couple of the great verses:
The fishing boats go out across the evening water,
smuggling guns and arms across the Spanish border.
The wind whips up the waves so loud,
the ghost moon sails among the clouds,
and turns the rifles into silver on the border.
Late last night the rain was knocking on my window.
I moved across the darkened room, and in the lamp glow,
I thought I saw down in the street, the spirit of the century
Telling us that we're all standing on the border.
* OK, we’ve got a footnote anyway. I must distinguish this song from the Eagles song of the same title. It’s good too, if not better, and it’s the name of their 3rd album.

PS: Adam, I agree about "often", but I think pronunciation of the "t" is another Southern thing, but a sophisticated style Southern thing. The people who pronounce that "t" aren't the ones that say "Where you at?"
My pet peeve is people that leave off more of the double-d or double-t consonants that normal Americans do. We don't normally pronounce them that hard, but those who skip 'em almost entirely have a trash-Hispanic sound to them, mostly girls, now that I think of it. For "sudden", they say "suh-in". It's pretty annoying.

PS: “𝑊ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑎𝑡?” That’s a Black! thang. With your being there in north Georgia, I understand you hear this from White people, but I’m sure it’s mostly just that black speech rubbing off, probably originally from making fun.
Putting prepositions at the end of sentences is what Southerners have always been …up… to. (I tried1) Where’s the Wal-Mart at? However, when you mix that with Ebonics you get - hey, spell-check corrected me by capitalizing Ebonics (I’m cool with dat.) - more like “Where he at?” I’m surprised that it only takes 2 corrections to straighten that one out. Kind of like Perl programmers trying to put as much programming into one line of codes as possible*, there ought to be a contest to make the largest number of grammatical mistakes per word - spelling must be correct… but, on the show, you must make your corrections in the form of a question. “What IS, ‘Where’s he?’, Alex?”
* That makes it pretty unreadable for the next guy, but it’s a point of pride.

PS: Good morning, Mr. Moderator!
Dernald Blumf's rhetoric and polices (especially his policies) remind me of that old Washington proverb...
𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑟𝑜𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑈𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑠 𝑖𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑠𝑢𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑟𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑑𝑒𝑐𝑖𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑚𝑎𝑑𝑒 𝑏𝑦 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑒𝑜𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝐼𝑠𝑟𝑎𝑒𝑙.
Like it or lump it. That is, apparently, 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑤𝑒'𝑟𝑒 𝑎𝑡. (As I hear so many Americans say these days. e.g. 𝑊ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑎𝑡? Is this just an Appalachia thing? I don't know. In any case, it's yet another bastardization of the language that I hear all too frequently, and it's like nails on a chalkboard to me. It is one of my pet peeves. Much like hearing people pronounce the word 𝑜𝑓𝑡𝑒𝑛 with a hard T. How did so many people miss the memo about the silent T in often? Personally, I blame phonics. And stupidity in general.) ＜/rant＞
Kinda off topic, but perhaps of interest to you or Mr. Hail...

PS: Back to Trump, I’m not sure if his appeal to low-IQ voters is purposeful, or this is just the guy he is. Some things about his personality are just amazing to me. I wrote about his wanting to be on both sides of the newest quarters, and there’s his verbal disappointment about the Nobel Prize (haha, before Iran, of course). I find it hard to believe someone could be SO immodest in temperament, but especially immodest in front of the world.
Couldn’t it be that we find out later that “he was really pissed about not getting a Nobel Peace Prize” or this or that, but that he didn’t actually say all this and his “I am the greatest!” bits during speeches to the country and the world? How about a Reagan with the some of Trump’s traits but without the severe public immodesty?
Yes, you are right that the idea of young women being the leaders or loudest people in politics is ridiculous and destructive. I will say, as you’d probably remember, that this is one of AnotherDad’s big points too. (Maybe he hadn’t had the opportunity to write about that on stevesailer.net yet.)
I know that you and AD have quite a bit of the same opinions. I don’t think you write in like this just because “I’m so much smarter than Trump…” (I don’t think AD directed that specifically at you anyway.) His wrastling match BS is also very annoying to me and reminds me way too much of Idiocracy and President Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho… and WAY too early - it’s not been nearly 500 years! It can get very annoying, but I try to not pay attention to anything but actual policy moves that he makes regarding Job #1, then the anti-D.I.E. stuff, etc.
Leaving the Iran War aside, to me a stupid move no matter how it turns out, I don’t see this all as a devil’s bargain. I.O.W. contrary to paid and unpaid ctrl—let protesters against anything Trump is for, it’s not like he’s really coming anything close to being a Dictator. If he were, I think we’d be farther along already with Job #1. My problem is actually that Trump is not a numbers and details guy, so he can’t see whether he is making serious progress or not. (Of course, he’ll brag either way.) I believe it’s Steven Miller who is better with that, and it’s possible nothing constructive would have happened without him and other (this time!) good advisors. (Again, I’m not including the Iran War when I write this - did Steven Miller encourage it? It’d be a reflex to say “of course”, but I’d like to find out. He’s got to realize that this is a big distraction from and possible permanent reversal of, fixing this country, and Steven Miller has been about fixing this country since High School.)

PS: “The troubling thing is that Trump has no loyalty to anyone (Except probably Israel), and doesn't care.” I don’t even know if he’s loyal to Israel even, rather than his letting them dictate American war-making as part of his deal making.
“He is not principled.” Right, that goes along with that he doesn’t care about breaking his word… kind of like a woman President.
We’re not privy to what Trump is really like in person. Maybe it’s just my projection, but I do believe that whatever deal making he does is primarily for the cause of America, Americans, even White people in particular. He HAS made headway this term on important issues, especially THE most important one. This time around, I understand better why he is acting like a King rather than trying to work with the UniParty. I don’t think he was going to make any headway trying to get bills passed. Notice that the BBB contained 100’s of billions of pork, as usual (Do they still call it pork? I’m dating myself.) That was in order to get that $150 Billion, no small sum for immigration enforcement/deportations in it.
Doing things this way means, of course, that MAGA, or let me just say Immigration Patriots, must keep power or it all goes right back, as in Brandon’s administration or even worse. That is, if the people themselves won’t push back to where it’s civil war. (I’m not sure how far the ctrl-left destroyers can push without some violent pushback. They went pretty far last time.)

PS: Mr. Hail, I’ll first paste in AnotherDad’s comment for the record here:

The whole "I'm so much smarter than Trump and his stupid and ignorant supporters" line gives of a strong whiff of butt-hurt ego issues as bad as Trump's. (But he gets to be president and you don't.)
> Those who have studied it have consistently found DJT tends to speak in the 4th-to-5th grade range, far lower than most previous presidents. <
And yet his 2nd presidency--following the worst presidency in US history--has probably been the best presidency we've had since Eisenhower and Operation Wetback.
The obvious: What matters is about ideas is their truth, not their complexity. (Ex. Ptolemy's epicycles were more complex but heliocentrism while much simpler is much closer to reality.) Even less so the complexity of verbal expression.
Trump saying "Somali pirates" while crude and verbally simplistic, has the bright shining virtue of being fundamentally *true* in outlining the useless and destructive quality of some peoples, the destructions wrought by letting them settle here and the overall parasitic relationship generally between immigrants and heritage Americans. Its truth is valuable. While whole forests of trees have been felled in the name of "diversity" spew--from pre-K to college level in verbal complexity--telling destructive lies.
Likewise, Trump's invite to stand if you believe:
"The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens."
is not particularly "complex", but it fundamentally--logically and morally--true, and immensely clarifying, compared to the "complex" verbiage endlessly spewed to try and justify policies which do exactly the reverse--trash the interests of Americans in favor of foreigners.
Truth and clarity are virtues. Verbal complexity is not and if used to hide and justify rash and destructive policies is a tool of evil.

PS
I used to agree with the gist of the criticism AnotherDad made in that comment. The way I now see it, the best understanding of Trump is that he is simply a screen onto which all can project their own aspirations. DJT created this motley coalition of mutually antagonistic elements, but all based on a giant, orange-colored smokescreen. AD still sees the projection on the screen, because he (we) want to see it.
The troubling thing is that Trump has no loyalty to anyone (Except probably Israel), and doesn't care. He is not principled. The criticism of "supposedly smart guys looking down on supposedly not-so-smart guys for the latter supporting Trump in low-brow ways," sets itself up for the criticism AD makes (elitism, I guess). But it's also true. The reason the coalition formed and lasted, to the extent it did, was based on a long-lingering mirage and that phenomenon of "every man projecting his own aspirations" -- Trump the political figure as a blank screen.
Trump doing pro-wrestling / reality-TV politics was a way to inflate this "blank screen" coalition beyond the realm of ideological- of interest-groups (and Jews/Israel), into recruiting people who probably shouldn't be heavily in politics.
The same criticism goes for the Left in the past decade or more (to a lesser extent for several decades now): they politicized the broad cohort of "young white females," to the degree that those may be the MOST politicized sub-demographic in the society. But they're not actually interested in ideas or the way things work, so bad things followed. The default in history has never been for emotionally volatile young girls and women to the MOST politicized element of a society, but this has happened. A bad development. The same, as I see it, for Donald Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho Trump's attempts to appeal to the lowest-IQ.
A lot of people understand this well, and have understood it for ten years or more now, but continue the devil's bargain because they mostly closed the border to illegal border-crossers (but unclear status on tightening good-old LEE-GULL immigration) and there are mass deportations happening (debatable on the scale and other parts of that). The ethical position for the takers of this devil's bargain is to recognize what's going on, that a devil's bargain is ongoing. The non-Jewish pro-Trump elements who are committed to ideas and principles (not just politics-as-pro-wrestling fans) often do this, but to me often insufficiently and there is incredibly weak pushback or simply nonexistent checks on this man (hence what may be the most centralized, rule-by-decree presidency in US history). I don't see that reflected in AD's comment, which, characteristically to him, is bold but un-nuanced.

PS: Good evening, Gentlemen. Thanks for the heads-up on Mr. Sailer’s excerpt of the OTHER Adam Smith, Mr. Hail. I read though it - cause, unlike iSteve, I didnt’ read Adam Smith when I was 14 y/o (Impressive. He’s competing with Ron Unz.)
I read the 40 comments there at the time of my reading. I am not as anti-Trump as you are, Mr. Hail, and I do see AnotherDad’s point. However, this Iran war is like a punch in the face from Trump.
Appreciate the artwork, Mr. Smith. I gotta turn in. It’s been a long day.

The pirate part of it is very appropriate and humorous. I have a couple of memes in mind, one involving the Jimmy Buffet song "A Pirate Looks at Forty".
Anyway, I would go a step further than Trump, and I think he USED TO do this, but you all know I write (and say, too) Somalians. I know it's not correct in Somali, the language, but that's really the point. It's even lower-brow, I suppose, but the use of the correct term (in THEIR language) for these people is very much like the newscasters speaking perfect English but then coughing up "Nick-a-rockk-quaaaw" for that country in Central America.
We shouldn't have to learn anything about these people. Imagine one of them correcting me, or Trump for that matter: "We're Somali, not Somalians." "OK, well either way, it sounds like you're not Americans, so you ought to go home."
