The DUmpster / Re: The National Parks Giveaway has begun!!!! ****!!!!!

1. So, it's a land exchange, not a "Giveaway". Coventina lied, unsurprisingly.

2. What Coventina quoted from the NYT did not speak of what the developer would do with the "two 40-acre parcels near the park". Trump's business being what it is, my guess is that the developer will build another lodge or hotel.

3. Coventina wants to believe and for DUpipo to believe that McMansions will be built. A simple access road would not suffice for that ... which, probably, is how the "small parcel just inside the western boundaries of Yosemite" would be used.

Trump Administration Live Updates: Proposal Would Give Part of Yosemite to a Developer

The Trump administration has proposed giving a small parcel of land in Yosemite National Park in California to a private developer, according to federal officials and documents reviewed by The New York Times.

The potential deal, which has not yet been finalized, has alarmed conservationists and former federal officials, who say that Yosemite, the crown jewel of the nation’s park system, should be off limits to development.

 The proposal, details of which were first reported by the news outlet NOTUS, calls for transferring a small parcel just inside the western boundaries of Yosemite to a Las Vegas-based company. That firm wants to build a road and develop two 40-acre parcels near the park, according to documents submitted to Congress this year and reviewed by The Times.

In exchange, the company would purchase land of equivalent value, either near Yosemite or elsewhere in California, and hand it over to the Park Service, the documents show.

DUmpasses and left-wingers in general are just bitter because they have no workable method to take even more of what you own and re-distribute it to themselves. what they are leeching today is never enough and they think you and i should suffer consequences for collecting the fruits of your labors.
DUmpasses are always too busy eating dope gummies and smoking drugs to actually work for a living

Dolly Parton came from a deeply impoverished family and became famous and beloved.

Bessent's War On Left-Wing NGOs May Strip Soros Network, SPLC, And CAIR Of Tax-Exempt Status: Report
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/bessents-war-left-wing-ngos-may-strip-soros-network-splc-and-cair-tax-exempt-status

Quote
A new report from the New York Post maps out a multi-agency Treasury task force that could soon pursue a broad review that could strip tax-exempt status from George Soros' far-left Open Society Foundations, the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Treasury officials are drafting a framework to audit NGOs suspected of exploiting their 501(c)(3) status for political activity, illegal conduct or support of radical groups, the Post reported, citing three people familiar with the internal deliberations.

One source said Treasury Department officials were "like a dog with a bone" and reckoned that many NGOs and their donor bases could be "on borrowed time."

Those leftist NGOs should be branded terrorist organizations.

Britain’s Biggest Council Pushes TWO YEAR JAIL TERM For Flying National Flags
https://modernity.news/2026/08/27/britains-biggest-council-pushes-two-year-jail-term-for-flying-national-flags/

Quote
Britain’s largest local authority has gone to the High Court to stop people hanging the Union Flag and the St George’s Cross from lampposts, with campaigners warning that a breach could mean up to two years behind bars.

Birmingham City Council filed the application this week as the latest move in a year-long war on “unauthorised attachments.” The attachments in question are the flags of the country. The penalties being threatened include prison, unlimited fines, and seized assets.

Protesters who fly the Union Jack from lampposts could criminal proceedings if the injunction is granted.

United Kingdom is no long what it used to be. A very dysfunctional nation.

Study Finds Gender Ideology Fuels Support For Left-Wing Political Violence
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/study-finds-gender-ideology-fuels-support-left-wing-political-violence

Quote
The Department of Health and Human Services commissioned a study that found a measurable link between accepting transgender ideology and supporting left-wing political violence.

Researchers at Rutgers University, the Manhattan Institute and the Network Contagion Research Institute produced the report, called "Where the Clinic Meets the Movement: Does Gender Ideology Arm Left-Wing Authoritarian Psychology?" which was obtained by the New York Post ahead of its release.

The team surveyed 1,208 American adults on the importance of affirming gender identity, on perceived threats to transgender people from groups the survey lists as "white supremacists, men, the Supreme Court, etc.," and on support for anti-democratic behaviors.

Transgender ideology is more prone to leftist violence. No surprise there.

WNBA Owner Compares Enes Kanter to Man with a Gun: ‘Certain Threats Don’t Get Warnings’

https://www.breitbart.com/sports/2026/08/27/wnba-owner-compares-enes-kanter-to-man-with-a-gun-certain-threats-dont-get-warnings/

Quote
Chicago Sky owner Michael Alter addressed the decision to eject Enes Kanter Freedom from Wintrust Arena without a warning by noting that some actions, like shooting at someone with a gun, do not merit warnings.

This is more fallout from the Sunday incident with Sky player Natasha Cloud.

Outkick published audio of Alter being asked why Freedom was not given a warning, and Alter replied, “He wasn’t given a warning because certain threats don’t get warnings.”

Alter continued, “He was given a lot of leeway, as I said, he was sitting there, and he was trash-talking…but at a certain point, you know.”

It has been a bipartisan boondoggle pork fest the past 25 years. The biggest hurdle is to get rid or more realistically wean off of all the entitlement programs which have been entrenched for far too long. And that is never politically popular, which is why it is so difficult to accomplish.

The chart is illustrative to idiots who whine about tax cuts and defense spending and how much they cost without mentioning the aforementioned entitlement spending.

I could go on for paragraphs whining about goobermint spending, but I'll stop.
