Short answer: if they got it bad, they’re dead or in a nursing home. That’s why they aren’t walking in a mall. They ran out of health.

Long answer: in recent times, there seems to be lower threshold of diagnosis.

But if he truly thinks he can pinpoint exposures that increase autism - e.g. like the exposure to tetraethyl lead which probably increased criminality and decrased mental health - good luck for combing scientific studies. There may be some. But if he’s gonna rewind the age old “vaccines cause” record and replay it, nah, I won’t be listening.

In this case, you’re quite obviously “barking under the wrong tree”. Some people who call themselves conservative or moderate are quite capable of predicting what may happen.

Regarding the 2016 election, Brooks spoke in support of Hillary Clinton, applauding her ability to be “competent” and “normal” in comparison to her Republican counterpart, Donald Trump.[67][68] In addition, Brooks noted that he believed Clinton would eventually be victorious in the election, as he foresaw that the general American public would become “sick of” Trump.[67][68]

On the August 9, 2019, episode of the PBS NewsHour, Brooks suggested Trump may be a sociopath.

Not a secret, lifted from his Wikipedia page.

I would always advise checking a person’s background before saying things about them.

Notes: presidential pardon is available for all offenses against the United States. All offenses against the US are tried by a jury. Contempt of court is not tried by a jury. Thus, is pardon available for contempt of court?

I don’t know. When it’s time, the SC will tell.

They’re all dead.

That is false.

Most of them had no criminal record.

That could be true.

I replied to your post of the satellite photo in another thread. See my reply here. In short, the strange spill and material has been present in the yard of that building for at least a month. If it’s permanent, it could indicate a washing facility or slaughterhouse. Jumping to conclusions is not a good way to proceed when you don’t check the context of a satellite photo.

Regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia, see this post on Twitter, a US senator was able to meet him:

Thank you, I checked it. Speculation: they are washing something there. Or it could be a slaughterhouse to prepare animals for food. One would find out by pointing a drone with a telephoto lens at the place. The spill of strange material is persistent over a month. Whatever they do there, they do it persistently.

• the L-shaped building pair is part of the CECOC prison complex

• it is within the security perimeter of the prison in general

• within the prison, it is within the security perimeter of the staff area (not inmate area)

• it appears to be an auxiliary building

• schematic here

• your satellite photo is from Maxar, copyrighted in 2025, date unknown

• there is a spill of something in the yard which might be speculated to be blood, and heaps of something in the yard

• for comparison, I opened Google Maps to view a photo

• I saw a different photo, but it likewise had an unidentified spill and unidentified material on the yard of the L-shaped building pair, but the arrangement differed somewhat

• in my photo, I observed yellowish brown material that could be used to clean up a spill (e.g. sand, sawdust) spread onto the yard

I made an intermediate conclusion: the spill is not a unique thing from one day only, but has persisted there. Prison staff have at some time taken actions to clean up something there.

Result: to conclude “they’re dead” about specific people is not logical.

About the strange spill: satellite imagery does not permit to specifically identify what is going on there. An experienced intelligance analyst would be able to go deeper. To check if the contamination in the yard might be blood, I would find a known slaughterhouse in the region and compare images.

As a self-appointed satellite photo analyst, I should point out that the photo lacks time and context and is below the threshold of making any kind of identification.

Violence by guards and inmates happens as a daily matter in a megaprison. If this is part of the same prison complex, then chances are high that it demonstrates violence that occurred to some other unfortunate persons or animals (the photo lacks resolution so badly that even human vs. animal identification is hard to make).

(a larger photo should be published to provide context, and would be easy to publish for a person interested in proving things, so I caution against trusting the source too much - the source might be more interested in spreading a rumour that goes viral)

These guys are likely still alive. But the chances of getting resistant tuberculosis in an El Salvadorian megaprison are extremely high. Besides gang and guard violene, spending time there can bring about a death sentence of a slow and paintful kind - carried out by bacteria that will reliably overcome a human immune system.

Other sources have reported that the Trump administration has approached some European country with the reqest to stop supporting Ukraine.

The request was rejected.

Shipping it with Linux is the easiest way to convince a consumer that it does run Linux. :)

Trump can issue an excecutive order and have them executed.

An “insane” ex-employee of a three letter agency can fire a wire-guided missile at his helicopter too, or someone may leave a drop of nerve agent on his door knob. I mean to say: possibilities for violence are endless. They’re an entirely different dish than legal possibilities, which are limited. With violence, imagination is the limit.

The supreme court however - I think they’re not bound by their previous rulings. If the court sees a justification, they can rule differently next time.

The week after that: the same or another person is again found in contempt, because the ruling of the court has’t been enforced.

Some legal interpretations say that contempt of court is not a pardonable offense. I don’t know if those are prevailing in the US.

State employees aren’t specifically beholden to the agency who hires and fires them.

The state has an executive, legislative and judicial branch.

If they follow an executive order but contravene a law, or contravene a court order that they know about (since only the courts make final interpretations of law) - my understanding is that they have no immunity.

Prediction: from the point in time when a court finds the DoJ to hold the court in contempt and arrests a high-standing DoJ official (ideally Pam Bondi, but I guess they’d go for lower hanging fruit), it would take about 24 hours until Bukele changes his mind and the Trump administration returns Kilmar Abrego García to US soil.

They already can. It’s called “Neptun”. But they can’t build them fast enough, and have to keep it extremely secret since production is in range of Russian weapons.

On the matter of just sending it, I fully agree. Finland for example doesn’t say what it sends. It just says something like “we sent materials for the 40th time”.

Listing living people as dead in an official database is 99% likely a crime.

I really like to build from zero, but some things are better copied, no matter if you fully understand them or fall short. :)

For example, I’m not qualified to check if Hamilton and Euler were correct - I only do as they explained, and later double-check the output against input.

To him, everyone is disposable. His likely goal: bargaining his way to interesting technologies and getting feedback from surviving soldiers to modernize his army.

With a gram of antimatter, you can probably blow a city-sized crater into Earth, so yes, 60 trillion seems like a fair price.

Edit: oh, it’s only 21 kilotons. The stuff is overpriced. :)

A counterpoint: unmanned technology has developed really fast recently. In old times, one had to be motivated as hell, because taking a shot at a president meant likely death.

In our days, for a technically capable adversary, an attempt costs only moderate amounts, escape is far more likely, and tools can rigged with self-destruction mechanisms to considerably hinder evidence collection.

I’d say that barriers are lower due to drones and robots. Then again, to get drones and robots pointed at oneself, one has to piss off people who have better things to do. That is, people who are unlikely to be desperate, since they could likely emigrate and find a well-paying job in a week.

If I try to predict a profile, I come up with “a technically competent person with an incurable disease, no longer covered by health insurance”. Or perhaps “a war veteran with an incurable disease”.

A guess: doubly ionized helium vs. singly ionized helium. They absorb different amounts of radiation (have different opacity). At high opacity it gathers heat an expands. At low opacity it lets the heat pass through, cools and condenses.

(This is the mechanism that makes Cepheid stars regularly and predictably change intensity. The same mechanism is probably present in other stars too, and causes local processes that we cannot observe from another star system… but can observe in the Sun.)

Alternatively, there could be a multitude of other effects doing something similar.
