The money paid by big game hunters like this guy are paramount to conservation efforts. It’s too bad he died, but as Bitter says it is the guide’s job to keep him safe. Under the hunting rules the hunter only had a shotgun, but the guide had a high powered rifle and is allowed to use it if needed. Somehow he wasn’t able to do that.

I will have to agree with Walt on this debate.”
Of course you will, because both you and Walt let the fact you don’t like Trump cloud your judgment.
Trump has been the best thing that ever happened to conservatives and the R party since Ronald Reagan.
Both of you admit Rs do better when he is on the ballot, but then say he is unpopular and a drag on Rs without realizing this is a major contradiction. An unpopular candidate brings out more people to vote for him? LOL.
The “flaws” you think Trump has are probably what makes him popular in the first place.
Neither of you has explained how such a “flawed” candidate won the popular vote and all swing states and a R house and a R senate.
My reservations about Trump are policy related. I am fine with his morals, they are no better or worse than most Presidents, and I am fine with his demeanor because contrary to people like Romney and McCain, he can give as well as he takes.

I have explained it many times. Pay attention. The Cult comes out to vote for him when he is on the ballot. The Cult does not come out to support his policies when he is not on the ballot. Why not? Because the Cult are not driven by ideas but supporting Trump the leader.

The Dems and the TDS sufferers think “running against Trump” is a good idea.
The reality is that spending money “running against Trump” is as stupid as “running for abortion”. The people swayed by this are already voting for Democrats.
Kamala Harris spent over $1 billion running against Trump instead of putting forth her own platform.
He won the popular vote and every swing state. Rs won the House and Senate.
Rs should hope the Dems keep running against Trump and wasting money on abortion.
Same with lawfare. The Dems invested heavily in Fanni Willis and Jack Smith and Marxist judges and fake evidence and none of it worked.
And it didn’t work because Trump was a lot more popular than they estimated. And still is.

DW,
On HHR, you are my go to science guy.
I have been worried recently. I get it that the earth stays in orbit around the sun due to the gravitational pull of the sun. If sun suddenly disappeared planet earth would shoot out into outer space and that would br the end if earth and everything on It.
What I do not get is why the earth spins…and when the earth might decide to stop spinning due to a technical malfunction, manmade error, worn out part, sabotage by Iranian Whack jobs or Democrat leftists in the U.S., etc.
Does the spinning cause the gravity? Does the molten .evaluate core inside the earth play a role in gravity?
When the earth eventually (but hopefully not while I am still here) stops spinning, then will gravity cease to exist and we all float away and die? Which I guess is ok, since without gravity all the air will drift up and away from the planet earth so if we were still hugging trees or strapped down on earth we would still be dead because the air was gone….
So, when the earth stops spinning, then one side of the earth will always be facing the sun, and one side of earth never see the sun. How will that impact the operation of solar panels on the dark side of the earth? Can we design a system of mirrors to get the sunlight around to the dark side of earth to keep them operational ?
Either we never discussed these things in science class when I was in school, or I maybe was absent that day.

Mass causes gravity, not spin. But the molten core counts as mass.

If the sun disappeared, everything on earth would die due to the extreme cold that would quickly take over.
Things that are in motion tend to stay in motion, so whatever caused the earth to start spinning is why its currently spinning.
If the earth stopped spinning, we have to first ask another question, and that is how abrupt the stop?
If it went from the current spin to dead stop, it would destroy the surface of the planet because the water in the oceans would all still be in motion. The earth spins at over 1,000 mph at the equator. This means a sudden stop would immediately kill most mammals as going that fast to 0 mph in a split second would be too much for the human body to endure.
But if the earth slowed gradually over time to a stop, then I will defer to AI’s answer: “If Earth slowly stopped spinning, the planet would face catastrophic, long-term changes: 6-month-long days and nights with extreme temperature swings, oceans migrating toward the poles, massive floods, and a collapsed magnetic field exposing life to high radiation. A slow stop would create a single, massive equatorial continent with two huge polar oceans.
I think that means nature would finish off NYC, whatever was left of it after Mamdani.

Tina, probably worth posting that whole thing for those too lazy to click the link:
“If you’d told me a few years ago this is where we’d be on Iran, I’d have said you were high:
1. Nuke program set back years. Enrichment and reprocessing gutted, weaponization sites destroyed, Fordow inoperable, Natanz in ruins, a generation of senior nuclear scientists eliminated.
2. Ballistic missile program crippled. Monthly production down from 100 to near zero. Roughly half the regime’s missiles and launchers destroyed. The IRGC Aerospace Force commander who ran the missile enterprise dead.
3. Air defenses devastated. American and Israeli airpower dominating Iranian skies, with strike aircraft operating over the country with near impunity.
4. Full economic warfare. Not just OFAC sanctions anymore, but military pressure layered on top: naval blockade, near-zero oil exports, choked imports, wrecked steel and petrochemical sectors, triple-digit inflation, and a currency that is effectively worthless.
5. Regime decapitation. Khamenei dead. Larijani dead. Hundreds of senior IRGC, intelligence, military, and Basij commanders dead including the IRGC commander-in-chief, the armed forces chief of staff, and the Aerospace Force commander. Mojtaba Khamenei inheriting a hollowed-out regime with no supreme authority and a gutted command structure.
6. The region turning on Tehran. Gulf states shutting down the sanctions-busting, money-laundering, and financial escape routes the regime has relied on for years. No Arab capital willing to throw Iran a lifeline. China and Russia providing limited support.
7. Proxy network shattered. Hezbollah and Hamas heavily degraded. Houthi political leadership taking direct Israeli strikes. The “Axis of Resistance” and “ring of fire” are now more slogans than real threats.
8. Syrian corridor severed. Assad is gone. The new government in Damascus is actively blocking Iranian arms transfers to Hezbollah: arresting smugglers and publicly declaring Syria will no longer serve as a transit corridor for Tehran’s terrorists. The land bridge to the Mediterranean that took decades to build is effectively closed.
9. Lebanon pivoting west. With Hezbollah battered and resupply choked, Israel and Lebanon have opened direct peace talks for the first time since 1983, aimed at a permanent agreement and Hezbollah’s disarmament. Beirut now asserting that the Lebanese armed forces alone are responsible for national defense. This is a direct repudiation of Hezbollah’s “resistance” claim. TBD.
10. Deterrence exposed as a bluff. Four direct attacks on Israel — April 2024, October 2024, June 2025, March 2026 — failed to impose strategic cost and instead triggered heavy retaliation. Iran couldn’t even use Syria as a launchpad.
11.Economy hollowed out from within. Power shortages, water crises, factory shutdowns, pension unrest, and mass protests. Nationwide demonstrations erupted in December 2025 after a year of economic freefall, with bazaaris, oil workers, and truckers, the regime’s traditional support base, joining strikes across all 31 provinces. Running out of oil storage space. Fuel shortages. The worst crisis since 1979.
12. Scientific and technical brain drain. Beyond the nuclear experts, Iran has lost a generation of irreplaceable expertise in missile design, centrifuge engineering, and weapons development. The survivors are harder to recruit and easier to deter.
13. Naval power decimated. The regular navy shattered, IRGC navy taking growing losses as CENTCOM moves to reopen Hormuz. And against all of this: the regime forced to play its Hormuz card at its weakest possible moment when the U.S. has options instead of when we didn’t: namely, Tehran with nuclear-armed ICBMs, 10,000 ballistic missiles, a Chinese- and Russian-built military, hundreds of thousands of attack drones, a fully operational terror network, and hundreds of billions of dollars to harden its economy.
That’s the strategic picture. It’s extraordinary. Much more to do but I can’t comprehend how much has been achieved.”
But if you watch CNN, Iran is winning and we are losing.

The only thing I’d have Trump add at the moment is to blow away the Iranian gunboats harassing shipping in the strait. Not sure why that hasn’t already been done. That, and give the go ahead for Israel to assassinate or bomb the current tier of loons now in charge of Iran. Just eliminate them. I guess he is waiting for the ceasefire to collapse….which it will as these kooks get more and more desperate.
My guess is that Iran’s next fallback strategy is to get the US to agree to some vague agreement in order to get Trump to lift the blockade and then violate that agreement.
