Saipan has become a hotspot for birth tourism, raising concerns Beijing is breeding passport-equipped spies

And all the “liberals” don’t see any problem with this or any thing else that stands in their way of getting Democratic voters to the polls.

DJT4547 if absolutely correct to try and stop all of these programs. Giving slaves post Civil War all of the rights and privileges is one idea. Good idea; but NOT thought out. But that’s another topic. It clearly was not intended for illegal immigration of the type of kind that we’ve seen up to now

I remember when a neighbor’s relative wanted to immigrate to the United States. They had a wealthy relative in St. Louis who wanted to sponsor him but no regular income from a job. He lived off his investments. They made that relative find someone with a real job no matter how poorly paid to sponsor him. I thought that was absolutely hysterical at the time. Decades later I realize how stupid bureaucrats could be.

But we should not admit immigrants who will become a drag on the welfare system. Immigrants who want to work and have skills should be welcomed in. We don’t need grifter and freeloaders.

SECURITY: Message to all sites that use SMS two-factor authentication

Sunday, September 27, 2026

*** begin quote ***

Many services have moved away from text-based SMS two-factor authentication in favor of email, authenticator apps, and other, more secure solutions (i.e., authenticator apps, passkeys).

Your site drove me nuts when forced to change my password with multiple screens and multiple SMS messages. Do it again and I’ll be forced to cancel. It’s security theater; not real security.

*** end quote ***

Let’s see if the {Privacy Invoked} responds.

Every time I get into this nonsense, I’m sending this message.

You should too. 

Line the TSA at airports, it’s “security theater”!

AI: Claude AI can’t put vcfs into Google Contacts

Saturday, September 26, 2026

*** begin quote ***

ME: Put this in a VCF and drop it into VCF-ICLOUD and VCF-GOOGLE with the “.vcf” extension

CLAUDIA: I don’t have a direct way to write into Google Contacts — there’s no Contacts API connector available here (only Drive, Calendar, and Gmail are connected), so I can’t push these VCFs in for you automatically. 

*** end quote ***

Yeah, and AI is going to take over the world!  Not yet, anyway, FMPOV.

Argh!

TECHNOLOGY: who tests before the end User?

Thursday, September 24, 2026

Had another instance of this today. Doctor’s practice has a web-based front end where you fill it all the forms. However, the HIPAA form doesn’t allow you to put in other people you want to have access to your medical records. I brought that to the attention of the receptionist and she said “Yep, we know, but it just can’t be done.”

As a fat old white guy injineer I find that INEXCUSABLE.

So the receptionist printed the blank form, I filled it out again with my wife’s name, the receptionist scanned it in, and who knows what she did with the paper.

So we waste paper, toner, and electrons. Not to mention the TAE (ie., time, attention, effort, and dikw).

Multiply that by every new patient!

What a waste. makes me wonder what else is ignored?

VETERANS: “I will never leave a fallen comrade.”

Saturday, September 19, 2026

https://www.military.com/history/4-things-know-pow-mia-recognition-day.html

POW-MIA Remembrance Day: Our Heroes Are Never Forgotten - Chris Miller

Remember those that the Gooferment politicians and bureaucrats betrayed by leaving them behind!

“A veteran is someone who at one point in his life wrote a blank check made payable to the ‘United States of America’ for an amount of ‘up to and including my life.'” -Anonymous

“A soldier accepts personal responsibility for the safety of the body politic of which he is a member, defending it, if need be, with his life. The civilian does not.” — Lt. Col. Jean V. Dubois (Ret.) and student, p. 26 Starship Troopers (1959) by Robert A. Heinlein

The most significant item in the Quang report is the assertion that there were 1,205 American POWs in captivity that September. Six months later, Hanoi released 591 POWs, insisting they were the only prisoners alive at that time. If that was true and if the Quang report is accurate, more than 600 POWs must have died or been killed between the fall of 1972 and April 1, 1973. https://time.com/archive/6723016/american-pows-who-was-left-behind/

“I can’t promise you that I will bring you all home alive. But this I swear, before you and before Almighty God, that when we go into battle, I will be the first to set foot on the field, and I will be the last to step off, and I will leave no one behind. Dead or alive, we will all come home together. So help me, God.”  — Mel Gibson playing Lt. Col. Hal Moore in “We Were Soldiers”

In the U.S. Armed Forces, we don’t leave anyone behind. It’s one of the basic pillars of what the Army calls the Warrior Ethos: “I will never leave a fallen comrade.” https://nation.time.com/2012/05/17/the-warrior-ethos-why-we-leave-no-one-behind/

We should add “BIA” (Betrayed In Action) to MIAs, POWs, KIAs, WIAs!

VETERANS:t September 18, 2026 – National POW/MIA Recognition Day

Friday, September 18, 2026

*** begin quote ***

Before the POW/MIA flag flew over the White House or was recognized by Congress, it began with Mary Hoff—a military wife searching for answers after her husband was declared missing in Vietnam.

Her request helped create one of America’s most recognizable symbols and the four-word promise printed beneath it: YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN

*** end quote ***

“A veteran is someone who at one point in his life wrote a blank check made payable to the ‘United States of America’ for an amount of ‘up to and including my life.'” -Anonymous

And, of course, everyone “forgets”.  Except for the vets and the families of all the KIAs, MIAs, POWs, and those who carry a lifetime of “scars”.

All the “chicken hawks” should be voted out of office.  Any “Congress Critter” who votes for, or allows to happen, should be handed a rifle and sent to “the front” where ever it happens to be.

Argh!

Remember Heinlein’s Starship Troopers’ universe?

“One does not merely have the right to be a citizen and vote by virtue of what Heinlein called the mere accident of birth; rather, one has to earn this right through Federal Service that tested one’s ability and willingness to sacrifice for the greater good of the polity. “

Bet a lot of vets would NOT vote for all the undeclared wars the USA has been in since WW2?

I sure wouldn’t. Would you?

Argh!

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: The injured were left to bear the loss.

Monday, September 14, 2026

https://www.malone.news/p/congress-gave-big-pharma-immunity?publication_id=583200&post_id=215365992&isFreemail=true&r=3snn7d&triedRedirect=true

Congress Gave Big Pharma Immunity. Vaccine Victims Got the Bill
The compensation system built to fail Americans
Dr. Robert W. Malone
Sep 12, 2026

*** begin quote ***

This is the story of a bargain Congress made with the American people in 1986 and quietly gutted in 2005. The original bargain was not perfect, but it recognized a basic moral fact: if government protects an industry by taking away an injured person’s ordinary right to sue, government assumes a corresponding duty to provide a fair and meaningful alternative. In 2005, Congress retained sweeping immunity for big pharma, while substituting a narrower, harsher, less transparent program effectively beyond the reach of any court. The manufacturers kept the protection. The injured were left to bear the loss.

*** end quote ***

Sorry, but how do “We, The Sheeple” hold the politicians and bureaucrats accountable for giving “us” “the short end of the stick”?  Like the criminals they are, they hide their identities (often with out a recorded vote and all sorts of other subterfuges) and escape from the “crime scene” (i.e., Congress) with a pension, a bag of loot, and everything they can take including the kitchen sink if they can.

Where is the Vax Injured, their families, and the Tapayers’ hook to bring them back to face some sort of “justice”.  If such is possible?

These are “honest mistakes” or “little white lies”, this is corruption, malfeasance, and deliberate criminal action.

Argh!

<<Feel free to ask me how I really feel while I’m getting my pitchfork and torch!>>

MEME: Again, many a true word is said in a meme?

Sunday, September 13, 2026

https://www.malone.news/p/friday-funnies-trust-me?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email#media-fd833cec-208b-4e7c-8c2c-468f1bd8b356

I’m surprised that people don’t kill themselves by accident.

Just the other day, I saw a pack of school kids on their scooters, with helmets, all looking at their screen while zipping along at about 20 miles per hour.

Lot of good this helmets will do when there is nothing Under them to protect.

Sigh!

Almost as bad as the drivers who are so engrossed in their screen that they completely miss the light from red to green and back to red.  It’d never happen in the Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee.

Argh!

ConspiracyTheory: Was the NFL game in Australia a version of a ”Potemkin village”?

Saturday, September 12, 2026

When I was watching the Thursday Night Game of the Week … …

… … many questions came to mind:

“watching 49/rams. too late for me.” Starts after 2030 Local and Halftime was after 2130. Past my bedtime!

They’re in Australia? It was a 10AM local game time. How did they get such a crowd on a week day work day morning?

Was it a ”Potemkin village” event — all show and no substance?

How much was subsidized by the Australian Taxpayer for commercials saying “Come Say G’Day”? What was the USA Taxpayers’ share — tax breaks, cash subsidies, special handling, “developmental loans” that never get paid back.

What incentives lured in a “enthusiastic sell out crowd”? Hired extras? Who paid for the garb, souvenirs, props?
I just wonder about the “whole show” and how much of it was staged?

I remember reading that the NFL lost its proverbial shirt on placing the games in Europe. Free tickets, paid attendees, carefully curated crowd shots, and all manner of other “marketing gimmicks”.

We have astroturf “citizens’ groups”. Why can’t we have astroturf “fans” too?

Argh!

Can’t trust anything anymore.

Couldn’t the whole thing be an AI video?
