- Raw milk products labeling for cats and dogs BOTG
- I Don't have the funds to throw into the kitty at the moment to make this a Share N' Donate but, I thought I'd share some info based on what you guys were talking about in 1725 regarding pets and raw dairy. Our farmer here in PA (and I assume elsewhere throughout the country) is forced to label certain raw dairy products as only suitable for, "Cats and Dogs" due to government regulations. It's how the small farms are able to skirt the idiotic raw dairy regulations. The email below is also a first from them since we've been with them and clearly they're being pressured and "don't know why" (it's for control, obviously).
- I asked one of the sons who delivers to our area every other week about the EID and raw dairy stuff you guys have been pointing out, and asked him what they're experiencing. He told me, "So far, there's nothing that's changed. The inspector who's on our farm has been with us a long time so he knows us, knows our operation, and is a good guy."
- Neither I, or anyone in my family (human, pets, or egg hens), have turned into cats, dogs, or contracted bird-flu-mageddon while eating raw dairy or handling live (or dead) hens! In fact, during my first year of eating and drinking raw dairy I lost almost 9 pounds and hadn't changed much else in my diet and haven't gained it back. My wife and mother both stopped having lactose problems, and my kids are ruined for store milk and hate it!
- God bless, keep up the good work for at least 4 more years, will donate again once Trump give me back some tax money (except NYC has already stolen it for "congestion tolling")!

- H-1B visa - Wikipedia
- The H-1B is a visa in the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act, section 101(a)(15)(H), that allows United States employers to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. It is the largest visa category in the United States in terms of guest worker numbers.
- A specialty occupation requires the application of specialized knowledge and a bachelor's degree or the equivalent of work experience. The duration of stay is three years, extendable to six years, after which the visa holder can reapply. Laws limit the number of H-1B visas that are issued each year. There exist congressionally mandated caps limiting the number of H-1B visas that can be issued each fiscal year, which is 65,000 visas, and an additional 20,000 set aside for those graduating with master’s degrees or higher from a U.S. college or university. An employer must sponsor individuals for the visa.
- The regulations define a specialty occupation as requiring theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge in a field of human endeavor,[5] including but not limited to biotechnology, chemistry, computing, architecture, engineering, statistics, physical sciences, journalism, medicine and health (doctors, dentists, nurses, physiotherapists, etc.), economics, education, research, law, accounting, business specialties, technical writing, theology, and the arts, and requiring the attainment of a bachelor's degree or its equivalent as a minimum[6] (with the exception of fashion models, who must be "of distinguished merit and ability").[7] Likewise, the foreign worker must possess at least a bachelor's degree or equivalent and state licensure, if required to practice in that field. H-1B work authorization is strictly limited to employment by the sponsoring employer.
- Boeing South Korean Crash and KLM
- 179 Die in Deadly 737 Crash, 2 Crew Survive | ENILRIA.COM
- Patron Carlos also flagged what appears to be a similar, but not deadly incident the same day also involving a 737-800. At almost the same time as the Jeju catastrophe, a KLM 737-800 left the runway (KL1204) after a diversion to Oslo TRF. The incident is being blamed on “hydraulic failure” and smoke was seen coming from the airliner’s left engine. The diversion took place after a loud noise from the engine.
- We have speculated that the Jeju plane also had suffered hydraulic failure as it does not appear the crew had control of the flaps or landing gear. The video purporting to show a bird hitting the engine only appears to show a damaged engine. We had also speculated that the video was likely filmed because the engine drew attention to people below with a loud noise. Both problems seem very similar.
- If both are related, could it be that defective engine parts caused both incidents? Birds are not being blamed for the KLM incident, although the Russians attempted to blame the shot down Embraer 190 a few days on birds initially, likely as a cover story. So birds are feeling like a scapegoat.

- Panama Canal ops info BOTG
- I wanted to provide the info on the Panama Canal.
- The transit does operate on a booking system.
- Everyone gets the same treatment with the occasional auction. If a vessel has strict delivery requirements they may want to bid more for transit. Conversely if a cargo is not time sensitive then not bidding is the right move.
- There are sometimes occasional quotas imposed (they lead to auctions) because the Panama Canal locks are refilled with fresh water from an artificial lake. They are not refilled with ocean water from either ends of the canal. If the artificial lake has not replenished from rain and other sources there is not enough water to send the ship through. This leads to quotas and auctions and price increases if you’re bidding against a well capitalized bidder.

- TikTok Amicus Brief from Trump BOTG
- Adam—Once again, your finger is on the pulse. On Thursday, Trump filed an amicus brief in the TikTok case up at SCOTUS. Highlighted copy attached. It’s a hoot.
- His pitch is simple: This is a political issue that involves national security and foreign policy. These are the job of the president, and if you allow TikTok to be shut down the day before I’m sworn in, you’ll undermine my ability to execute my constitutional functions and negotiate a deal. Why wade so hastily into the difficult issues of free speech and the executive function? Put it on ice, and give me a chance to fix it! Along the way, he repeatedly mentions the Brazilian X ban and the coercive tactics used against Facebook, Twitter, etc. during COVID and the Hunter Biden debacle.
- Remember—the question SCOTUS has agreed to decide is whether the “sale-or-ban law” violates the First Amendment. Trump’s amicus raises a different question: whether the law violates Article II by allowing Congress to infringe on Presidential powers. It’s an interesting move because, although SCOTUS generally limits itself to the questions actually presented (here, the First Amendment), nothing prohibits it from considering other issues. Time will tell whether SCOTUS gives Trump’s Article II arguments any attention. Oral argument will clue us in.
- Here’s my speculation: SCOTUS will have to decide weighty questions, but the odds are against them staying the statutory deadline. After all, SCOTUS has accelerated the case and signaled that they’ll decide it quickly. So I don’t see them delaying a duly enacted statute even by one day. It’s certainly possible, but I think the greater likelihood is that they’ll just render an expedited substantive decision on or before January 19.
- Despite my speculation, I must note that courts love to avoid deciding weighty issues if they can get away with it—so there’s still a chance that SCOTUS would say, “What’s the harm in a short reprieve? Maybe Trump will moot the whole thing and we can remain silent.” It could definitely happen, but I think the odds are against it.
- All of this is to say that I think you’re right once again: Unless the statute is struck down as unconstitutional,* the problem will loom until Trump is sworn in. And if the problem looms, Trump will be the one to fix it.
- *Striking a statute is usually a tall order, but SCOTUS seldom decides to review a law unless at least four Justices have genuine concerns.
- Welcome home—we saved the nicest weather for you.
