COMEY: On October 26, the DOJ charged former FBI Director James Comey with leaking a sensitive national security document to The New York Times in October 2016. There is no grand jury indictment yet.

MAHA: [9:36] – When I was recovering from knee replacement, my dd bought me a pedometer. I was frustrated with it at first, because it was not recording my steps. Then, I figured out that it only records the kind of strong. heel-toe stride described here. I was greedy for those step numbers to go up, so I focused on the quality of my stride. One day, my PT saw me at the gym and exclaimed, “You walk like someone who never had knee replacement!” I told her I owed it all to my fussy pedometer LOL.

CATHOLIC: This is worth watching. The presenter makes a lot of great points. [16:44] – The Second Council of Nicaea occurred in the year 787, many centuries before the Protestant Reformation.

On October 13, 787, the united bishops decreed that “venerable and holy images are to be dedicated in the holy churches of God, namely the image of our Lord and God and Saviour Jesus Christ, of our immaculate Lady the Holy Theotokos, and of the angels and all the saints. They are to be accorded the veneration of honor, not indeed the true worship paid to the divine nature alone, but in the same way, as this is accorded to the life-giving cross, the holy gospels, and other sacred offerings.”

How wonderful that the date Our Lord chose to honor His Blessed Mother with the Miracle of the Sun at Fatima was also October 13!

STUPID PEOPLE: Some Americans think corporations have too much power. Their proposed solution is to merge your landlord, your employer, your insurance companies, your banks, your utility and internet providers, and all of your stores into a single entity that not only has no competition, but also has a police force and a military.

WHAT DO PROGRESSIVES REALLY WANT: The Lionel Shriver speech linked below is worth your while. To whet your appetite … “I grew up in a household that was ‘progressive’ before the tag became a thumbnail for the modern American Left. My parents were lifelong liberal Democrats. Moreover, my own baby-boomer generation is abundantly responsible for where the Democratic Party, the charity sector, the public sector, the churches, the universities, the arts world, and even many corporate boardrooms have ended up. In our naiveté, vanity, arrogance, historical ignorance, provincialism, psychological cluelessness, entitled prosperity, and political gullibility, my peers and I sowed the seeds for both ‘woke ‘ and democratic socialism. … The state of the American Left is partly my fault.”

Also this … “The point of being progressive is the fostering of an internal state: a sense of superiority, certainty, contempt for unbelievers, and moral vanity. And when you look at that list of emotions—again: a sense of superiority, certainty, contempt for unbelievers, and moral vanity—you understand why, despite glaring doctrinal differences, the contemporary far Left allies with radical Islam. Both Islamists and left-wing Democrats cultivate communal narcissism.”

And this … “The claims of ‘white guilt’ by Robin DiAngelo’s exploitable honky book buyers were forms of moral display—occasions of public preening, like fan dances in burlesque. … During the post-Floyd delirium, did white progressives feel ashamed? No, they felt proud of themselves for claiming to feel ashamed. They broadcast their guilt expressly to exempt themselves from it.”

ILHAN OMAR: Until recently, the Minnesota congresswoman has vehemently denied the claim that she married her brother to get him into the country. Somehow, since the FBI started collecting family DNA, her answer changed from “of course not” to “not to my knowledge.”

In other news, sources close to the case say that Ilhan Adbullahi Omar’s legal name is actually Ilhan Nur Said Elmi. (N.b., the man Ilhan married briefly is named Ahmed Elmi.) If it is proven in court that “Omar” has been living, marrying, and serving in congress under an illegal alias, it would call into question every form she ever filled out, every document she ever signed, every vote she ever cast.

Alan Dershowitz says she likely will be denaturalized and deported.

MAHA: Reduce the power to half and cook for twice as long. Microwave ovens are either on or off. “Half power” doesn’t mean the waves are half as powerful; it means the machine cycles between on and off 50% of the time. Since microwaves only heat the outer 1/4″ of the food, by turning the waves on and off, you let the heat transfer via convection from the outside to the inside of the food.

NASA: Ingenuity was the first machine to fly on another planet. Its last flight was in January 2024 when its blades were damaged while landing. The Perseverance rover later spotted it far away, still sitting alone on the sand dunes.

SCIENCE: A study entitled “Multimodal examination of the acute effects of cannabis on subjective and physiological stress-related outcomes: a randomized placebo-controlled laboratory study” was published in the journal, Neuropsychopharmacology. It reported that 120 regular cannabis users experienced the same degree of relaxation with a placebo as they did with marijuana. “There really appears to be an expectancy effect.”
