DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Grant each of us restful sleeps and peaceful deaths. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

ART OF THE DEAL: Last May, fighting flared briefly between India and Pakistan. On Wednesday, President Donald Trump said he kept the tensions from escalating to war by threatening both nations with 250% tariffs.

This week, he negotiated $490 billion in investment commitments with Japan, then went to South Korea where he finalized a $350 billion trade deal.

BASKETBALL: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/CwsekFoxznw to hear fake news which was disappointingly passed on by someone whose posts I usually like.

Shortly after taking office, President Obama had the South Lawn tennis court (built in the 1950s under Eisenhower) repurposed by adding basketball lines over the tennis lines and purchasing removable hoops. There was no new construction, demolition, or “tearing up the lawn” and the facility could easily be switched between basketball and tennis.

While no official figures were released, the likely cost of converting the White House’s existing outdoor tennis court into a dual-use basketball/tennis court in 2009 was between $17,000 and $200,000. The project was paid for by private donations, not with taxpayer moneys.

It is worth noting that, unlike Obama, who never disclosed the basketball court donors, Trump has been fully transparent about where the ballroom money is coming from.

BIDEN: Mike Donilon, a longtime aide to former President Joe Biden, told the House Oversight Committee that he was promised a $4 million bonus if Biden won reelection in 2024. That was on top of his $4 million salary. Kinda sounds like 8 million reasons to cover up Biden’s physical and mental disabilities.

ARCTIC FROST: On Tuesday, the House Judiciary Committee released nearly 200 pages of internal emails showing the FBI targeted more than 150 Republicans in key battleground states during the 2020 election cycle. “Arctic Frost investigators utilized FBI field offices from across the country to conduct its investigation,” raising serious questions concerning whether the Democrat-led DOJ plotted with state prosecutors to bring criminal charges against Trump supporters.

BIDEN: The House Oversight Committee’s 93-page report say they found “no record demonstrating President Biden himself made all of the executive decisions attributed to him.” They have accused White House officials of a cover-up, declared that clemency actions signed with President Biden’s autopen are invalid, and officially requested that Attorney General Pam Bondi investigate and “address the legal consequences.”

AI Chatbots and Our Kids and Grandkids

[2:42] – I had no idea what a “chatbot” was, so I asked Grok, “How do kids get involved with chatbots?” Silly me. Grok is a chatbot. In fact, I have already had my “whoa” moment with Grokkie, whose chatty style suckered me into interacting with it as if it were another human on the ‘net. After I caught myself calling it “he”, saying “please” and “thank you” and feeling like I needed to explain why I wanted to know something, I stopped using it for a few days. It is a helpful tool; I used it extensively to put together my Lying Liars blogs. But it is a MACHINE that was programmed by people whose beliefs and agendas may not be compatible with my own. Point being … the information below isn’t just for your kids and grandkids!

Below are the tips and resources Grok pulled up to help us use AI safely and effectively. The graphics are screenshots from the MIT article linked at the bottom.

Safe and Fun Ways for Kids to Get Involved with Chatbots

Chatbots are AI-powered conversational tools. Some examples are Grok and ChatGPT. Kid-friendly versions can spark curiosity, boost creativity, and teach problem-solving, but they can also sometimes give inaccurate info, perpetuate biases, or lead to over-reliance if unsupervised.

Always involve parents or guardians, use age-appropriate platforms, and start with short sessions (10-15 minutes). Aim for educational or playful use, not endless chatting. Below, I’ll outline practical ways kids (roughly ages 8-14) can engage, based on expert-recommended activities from educators and tech organizations.

1. Start with Simple Interactions (Ages 8-10)

  • Play Games and Ask Questions: Treat the chatbot like a trivia buddy. Ask for jokes, riddles, or “20 Questions” (e.g., “Guess what animal I’m thinking of”). This builds critical thinking by spotting when the bot gets things wrong. Kid-safe platforms like Grok (on x.com or apps) or Google Bard have built-in games; avoid open-ended “companions” like Character.AI, which recently banned under-18s due to safety risks.
  • Storytelling Sessions: Prompt the bot for story starters (e.g., “Write a short adventure about a kid inventor”). Kids can add their own twists, fostering imagination. Tools like AI Dungeon offer moderated versions for this.
  • Tip: Sit side-by-side with an adult to discuss responses(e.g., “Why do you think the bot said that?”)

2. Educational Chats for Learning (Ages 10-12)

  • Homework Helpers: Use chatbots for brainstorming, not copying answers. Ask “Explain photosynthesis like I’m 10” or “Give me three fun facts about dinosaurs.” This encourages research skills and fact-checking. Apps like SchoolAI let teachers create custom bots for subjects like science experiments or history quizzes.
  • Language Practice: Chat in another language (e.g., “Teach me basic Spanish greetings”) or role-play scenarios like ordering food. This simulates real conversations without pressure.
  • Reading Buddies: Bots can “discuss” books to build interest—e.g., “What would happen next in this story?” Studies show this boosts situational interest in reading. sciencedirect.com
  • Tip: Set rules like “Always check facts with a book or trusted site,” and use platforms with parental controls (e.g., Microsoft Edge’s Bing Chat).

3. Hands-On Creation (Ages 12+)

  • Build Your Own Bot: No advanced coding needed! Use free tools like Scratch (from MIT) to make a simple chatbot that answers questions on a topic like space or pets. Tutorials guide kids through “if-then” logic. Platforms like Code.org or Tynker offer drag-and-drop AI projects, like a guessing game bot.
  • Real-World Projects: Design a bot for school events (e.g., fundraiser orders) or environmental tips (e.g., “How can I reduce plastic waste?”). This teaches ethics, like considering user needs and AI limits.
  • Advanced Fun: Experiment with text-to-speech in Scratch to make talking bots, or join online challenges from sites like Create & Learn.
  • Tip: Start small—focus on mechanics first, then add personality. Share creations with family for feedback.

Essential Safety Rules for Parents

  • Supervise Always: Monitor chats to avoid sensitive topics; bots can mimic empathy but aren’t therapists.
  • Teach Critical Thinking: Discuss biases (e.g., “Why might the bot overlook certain cultures?”) and ethics (don’t use for homework cheating).
  • Limit Time & Avoid Companions: Stick to 20-30 minutes/day. Recent laws and bans (e.g., on Character.AI) highlight risks of emotional dependency.
  • Privacy First: Use incognito modes or kid accounts; never share personal info.

CLICK https://x.com/BreitbartNews/status/1982878429675659613 [:31] to hear “The Typhoid Mary of Misinformation” declare that no Democrat has ever said that Donald Trump is Hitler.

On July 13, 2015, less than a month after Donald Trump first announced his intention to run for president, Mexican-American singer and activist Rick Fuentes (better known as Rick Santillan) held up a photo of Hitler and said in Spanish, “This man is Hitler. This man is Hitler. What he is saying is exactly what Hitler said in the 1930s.” Within 48 hours, the video clip had gone viral on social media and been widely reported by U.S. outlets like The Washington Post and HuffPost.

On July 18, 2015, the first U.S. Politician – Rep. Luis Gutiérrez (D-IL) – said on MSNBC, “The parallels are frightening… the demonization of entire groups.

On August 6, 2015, the first major op-ed appeared in The New York Times. Written by columnist Timothy Egan, it said, “Trump’s rhetoric echoes the early rise of Hitler.”

In January 2016, Rep. John Lewis said Trump reminded him of George Wallace and “1930s Europe.”

On March 21, 2016, Hillary Clinton framed Trump’s rhetoric as a direct parallel to the rise of fascism.

On August 16, 2017, Rep. James Clyburn likened Trump’s 2016 rise to Hitler’s ascent in 1933.

On January 1, 2019, Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) warned that “Americans, particularly black Americans, can’t afford to make that same mistake about the harm that could be done by a man named Hitler or a man named Trump.”

On March 19, 2019, Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), then-House Judiciary Committee Chairman, compared former President Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric and use of executive power to Adolf Hitler’s tactics.

On July 18, 2019, during an interview on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Beto O’Rourke compared Trump’s July 17 rally in Greenville, North Carolina, to a Nazi rally.

On July 30, 2019, a post-debate interview with CNN’s Van Jones, DNC Chair Tom Perez compared Trump’s July 17 rally in Greenville, North Carolina, to the Nuremberg rallies.

On September 26, 2020, during an MSNBC Interview with Stephanie Ruhle, Joe Biden compared Trump to Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels, accusing him of repeating lies about Biden’s record until they become “common knowledge.”

On September 2, 2022, Joe Biden described the MAGA Republican philosophy underpinning Trump as “semi-fascism.”

On September 23, 2022, Hillary Clinton explicitly likened Trump’s September 17 rally in Youngstown, Ohio to Hitler’s speeches.

In March 2023, Gen. Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Trump, reportedly told journalist Bob Woodward he considered Trump to be “the most dangerous person to this country” and “fascist to the core.”

On November 8, 2023, Clinton directly compared Trump to Hitler, noting that “Hitler was duly elected” and warning that if Trump got a second term, his “dictatorial, authoritarian tendencies” would be “the end of our country as we know it.”

On June 27, 2024, Kamala Harris said Trump is a “threat to our democracy and our fundamental freedoms.”

On August 16, 2024, Nancy Pelosi said Donald Trump “sounds like Mussolini or Hitler in the 1930s, talking about ‘enemy of the people’ and ‘fake news media’.”

On October 21, 2024, Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) called Trump “another Hitler.”

On October 23, 2024, during remarks at a CNN Town Hall, Kamala Harris again called Trump a “fascist” who was “deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous.”

On October 24, 2024, the Biden Campaign and the DNC put out multiple messages calling Trump “unstable, unfit, and dangerous” because he (allegedly) admires Hitler.

On October 23, 2024, CLICK https://x.com/KamalaHQ/status/1849136797877493961 [3:03] to hear Democrat Presidential candidate, Kamala Harris, go on at length about Kelly’s claim.

CLICK https://x.com/disclosetv/status/1722299712697446763 [:34] to hear Hillary Clinton say Trump will be a dictator who will do away with our freedoms, just like Hitler who “was duly elected.”

HISTORY: Hitoshi Imamura was a Japanese general during World War II, commanding forces in Southeast Asia, including the Dutch East Indies. Under his leadership, Japanese troops committed numerous atrocities against civilians and prisoners of war. After Japan’s surrender, Imamura was tried by an Allied military tribunal and sentenced to ten years in prison for war crimes. Unlike many of his peers who denied responsibility, Imamura expressed remorse, believing his sentence was too lenient given the suffering inflicted under his command.

In a striking act of personal accountability, Imamura built a replica prison cell in his garden after his release and chose to live there voluntarily until his death in 1968. The cell was austere and modeled after wartime confinement conditions, symbolizing his ongoing penitence. His self-imposed isolation stood in stark contrast to the widespread denial among other convicted officials, offering a rare example of moral reckoning in postwar Japan.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Keep our minds and hearts firmly on the things that matter. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

RACIAL PROFILING: My brother was a CEO in Los Angeles years ago. He said they were legally barred from ever asking anyone about or making a record of individual employees’ races. They were also legally required to match the local racial demographics, department by department, and to report these numbers to the government on a regular basis. The government sent surprise inspectors to tour the facilities and verify the reports were true.

TDS: On Sunday, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) tweeted, “Don’t even think of seeking the Democratic nomination for president unless you pledge to take a wrecking ball to the Trump Ballroom on DAY ONE.” Meanwhile, the Washington Post has admitted, “Privately, many alumni of the Biden and Obama White Houses acknowledge the long-overdue need for an event space like what Trump is creating. It is absurd that tents need to be erected on the South Lawn for state dinners, and VIPs are forced to use porta-potties.”

GRAMMY NOTES: I suffered a long bout of illness in 2016. Dearest nursed me through it all, picking me up, cleaning me, feeding me. I remember one moment after a fall. He was holding me close as he lifted me off the floor and laid me back into bed. I said, “Most of this sucks. But this, right here, this is really nice.”

EVERYDAY HEROES: When Navy sailor Douglas Hegdahl was captured during the Vietnam War and thrown into the infamous Hanoi Hilton prison, he pretended to be clumsy, slow-witted, and illiterate. His captors gave him freedom to wander around the camp, because they thought he was too simple to be a threat. He memorized the names, capture dates, and conditions of 256 of his fellow prisoners, setting the information to the tune of “Old MacDonald Had a Farm” which he sang silently in his head, day after day, so he wouldn’t forget a thing.

All of the POWs had agreed that no one would accept early release. However, when the North Vietnamese offered to send Hegdahl home as a propaganda stunt, his fellow prisoners told him to go. His “Old MacDonald” information was some of the most valuable intelligence of the war. He later attended the Paris Peace Talks and confronted the North Vietnamese with his firsthand information about the mistreatment of prisoners.

S&G: On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Louis Guirola Jr. struck down a Biden-era rule that expanded Title IX discrimination protections to gender identity. Guirola’s ruling states, “In the opinion of the Court, Congress only contemplated biological sex when it enacted Title IX in 1972. Therefore, the Court finds that [Biden’s] HHS exceeded its authority by implementing regulations redefining sex discrimination and prohibiting gender-identity discrimination.”

SCIENCE: Last week, SCOTUS rejected Anthony Boyd’s final appeal, allowing Alabama to carry out his death sentence by administering pure nitrogen gas. The three liberals on our highest court – Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson – dissented from the majority as shown in the excerpt above.

The problem with their dissent is that it is based on the idea that breathing pure nitrogen is a painful way to die. Scientists say it is carbon dioxide buildup that triggers the feeling of suffocation referenced in the justice’s dissent. Inhaling pure nitrogen causes only some dizziness and confusion before quickly causing unconsciousness and death.

In fact, breathing pure nitrogen is allegedly such a simple and painless way to die that a euthanasia advocate invented a device called a “Sarco pod” (sarco being short for sarcophagus) to allow people to commit suicide painlessly.

SHUTDOWN: On Thursday, the Senate held its most recent vote on a bill to guarantee paychecks for active-duty service members, air traffic controllers, border patrol agents, and other federal employees required to work during the shutdown. The measure needed 60 votes to pass. Three Democrats—Sens. John Fetterman (Pa.), Jon Ossoff (Ga.), and Raphael Warnock (Ga.)—joined Republicans in support, along with Independent Sen. Angus King (Maine).

On Friday, President Trump told reporters, “A friend of mine, a man that’s great, I’m not going to use his name unless he lets me do it … He called us the other day and said, ‘I’d like to contribute any shortfall you have because of the Democratic shutdown … with the military … if there’s a shortfall I’ll contribute.’ And today he sent us a check for $130 million … that’s what I call a patriot.”

SWITZERLAND: Article 261bis of the Swiss Criminal Code was enacted in 1995 to prohibit the dissemination of ideas based on race, ethnicity, or religion that degrade human dignity. In 2020, it was expanded to include sexual identities.

In December 2022, Emanuel Brünisholz posted the above to social media. Activists reported him. The courts fined him US$600. He lost on appeal and was fined an additional US$750. He refused to pay, so they tossed him in the pokey for ten days.
