Pretty comprehensive list! Makes one wonder why we still bother with Merriam-Webster when we can just ask the nearest Democrat for the meaning to any word.
I kept my mother's 1958 dictionary (which she probably found in the 1990s) just so I could refer to the correct meanings of words before the woke tempest in a teapot.
Well....you don't have to "read it" although I had read about a man who lived in NoWheresVille who was so knowledgeable... Someone asked him about his travels to be so knowledgeable. He responded that he had never been any at all but that he had read the entire encyclopedia.
Everyone has a phone and yet far too many people see it as a phone for calling people, texting, and emails, instead of a being a handheld computer which contains how to spell words, what the meanings are, and a host of other things all found with a simple search query, basically a dictionary and an encyclopedia in everyone's hand but for which most are too mentally lazy to use. I would like Apple and other phone makers to stop referring to them as "phones"....that should be an adjunct use
Won't do any good to ask a Dim ; they will just lie to you . But hey , they can't help it . After reading Don's list , Merriam-Webster should be paying him to be " of counsel " .
Our world is now the Bizarro world. Anybody else tired of all the news coverage of the kidnapping. Repeating the same story over and over again without any new news. The only good thing is Minnesota is off the front pages.
There's plenty they should be reporting on, but won't. I'd rather have Minnesota Somalis in everyone's face until Walz, Frey, and Omar are convicted in court for their roles in the treason and fraud. Declaring your allegiance to another country ought to be grounds for expulsion from this one.
A real journalist went to Omar's winery to check it out. Just like the Learing Center, nobody there. It's fake. It's how they laundered the Somali fraud money. Things might get interesting. I would love to see her denaturalized and deported after being convicted of fraud.
I think you are being too kind here, Jake. Until these people start spending time in prison for their corruption of our laws, we will just see more of them. Omar and her ilk exist because we do not hold public servants accountable for their actions. MN is peanuts compared to what has been happening in California and other blue flag flying states for decades.
Well, regarding your last sentence, that is exactly how I feel about dual passported people...pick one if they both are for citizenship....I know many people with dual passports....either you are a US citizen or you are a citizen of another country...
Well my ancestors were all German. That’s where they came from, not who I am or who I share allegiance with. I’m an American first. People who feel the need for dual citizenship need to pick a country. Otherwise, they are little different than carpetbaggers. Musk is a bright guy. Just pick one, Elon.
Why is that a good thing? That spotlight needs to stay on at all hours of the day and night until that fraud and corruption running rampant and flagrant theft of taxpayer money in all states is revealed and punished.
Yep we need some judges, congressmen, senators, mayors, and district attorneys behind those 3/4 inch round bars that are about 5 inches apart. Nothing will change until that takes place. Remember though, government follows the culture not vice versa.
We are a fragile country held together by the rule of law and the inherent quest for freedom. It is not our economy or our military from which we derive our strength. But the rule of law is under attack by leftists. It is the 600 pound elephant no moral person can deny.
Based on what DOGE uncovered, it appears you and I and the rest of taxpayers are. The big backers use their money wisely, figuring out what positions control the most people and then installing puppets to do their bidding. Our judiciary has been horribly corrupted this way. You don’t eat a whale in two gulps, you cut it in small pieces and devour it that way. It’s been going on for decades. Now add our failed education system and………..
People are kidnapped fairly often. Why is only big news when it is the relative of someone famous? I am sorry it has happened.
Minneapolis is off the front page because the mission failed. Antifa is working on their next big awful. Or should I say the AWFLs are working on their next thing.
Kidnapping of an elderly woman is a sad event, but if she was not related to one of the "journalistic elite," we never would have heard about it. In a nation of 350+ million, that would be normal and expected. Let's get back to news that impacts many or all of us, such as 9-19 BILLION in fraud and theft.
S.B.A. Secretary Loeffler just froze 111-2 million to Calixico over fraud concerns after Dr.Oz detailed fraud yesterday in hospice care. Nick and J.D. may be there a while.
Yes, Savanah Guthrie mother’s disappearance is a big deal but the 300K unaccomphanied minors who crossed the border illegally and then were lost by the Biden cabal were no big deal I guess. It’s time we all start getting our news from Omaha NE or Helena MT perhaps.
This could be another JonBenet and we never know who did it but this time there's no body. AND YES, many of us are sick of it, the repetition and errors of time frames, etc., are astounding. Guthrie's hate Trump yet FOX is doing overkill on this story. Why is this particular vic getting this much coverage? It's likely she is with the angels but we may never know. This to me, doesn't seem to be about ransom. It's either random or vendetta is my conjecture.
Sensitivity Training: Rank political indoctrination/brainwashing under duress/threat of termination. This Soviet Union-inspired apparatchik is nothing short of a white people-hating political Kommissar renamed today as a “Diversity Officer”.
Totalitarians always go for the euphemism. Hat tip to the late, great David Horowitz who quipped, “Inside every “Progressive” is a Totalitarian Screaming to Get Out.”
Amen, Al, back at ya! How is your snow load where you are? Anything melting? I'm thinking this might be the beginning of a new Ice Age. Deeper and deeper until we are all frozen and preserved inside out buried homes.
Continuing damage. I read today that Kammy only won states that don't require voter ID. I gotta have Grok check that but it seems logical based on recent disclosures.
Continuing damage! Yes. We’re still suffering the damage done by Jimmah Carter 50 years ago. Our great grandchildren will still be suffering the damage inflicted by 0bama and pedo Joe. Trump is lessening the damage but there is only so much that he can do. And if we lose the midterms…
There seem to be so many internal conflicts going on in the country today that I fear people have reached the overload point and that could signal severe consequences in the midterms. It is clearly by design too.
I was going to choose 81 million but then thought: Without that oh so obvious fraud, Trump 47 would not have been able to come roaring back with lessons learned and steel in his ...spine! Not to mention that Biden's presidency woke (not that kind of "woke"!) a lot of folks up to the Democrat's agenda and harm. The other four choices were equally worse but I ended up with "No one is illegal". The term illegal alien/immigrant always referred to a human being's circumstance and not the being him/her/it self.
Controlling Language is the first thing they do. Everything else follows.
If you let them, you’re an accomplice!
‘Member it all started with being Politically Correct, because to be anything but was just mean’
Fuck that! And Fuck them!
And Don, ‘An unauthorized assisted suicide’ is rather awkward isn’t it? We have a much smoother and attractive name for it up here… MAiD… Medical Assistance in Dying… see how it rolls off the tongue? Catchy ain’t it!
My 85 year old grandmother, a year before her death, told her doctor that he should probably know that she drank a beer with her dinner every day, sometimes two. He told her "have 3!"
In my politically naive days, I thought that being PC was actually a euphemism for being thoughtful and polite...i.e. don't say to someone what you wouldn't want said to you...but that it then morphed into something else...as always...
Since the word "politically" starts with the same 6 letters as the word "polite", it did have a subconscious positive tinge to it, that probably caused most of us to not sense too great a "red flag" about "politically correct".
That was some of the most fun with words I’ve seen since Edwin Newman’s “Strictly Speaking.” Great job.
It also reminds me of an Arlo and Janice cartoon from back in the 70s. The teenage kid informs his father “Dad, we don’t call them black anymore. We call them people of color.”
The dad pauses a moment and then says “Oh, I get it! Colored people!”
Love the list but I'd like to add a term to your leftist dictionary:
Constitutional Republic: What the left loves to call Democracy.
In fact, it is a system/process of government considered to be the pinnacle of achieving personal freedom and liberty. It is also the most attacked form of government with false claims alphabetically listed herewith. It’s confused with the term Democracy, used as a false synonym, which is a form of government guided by the tyranny of the majority, the method by which the Constitutional Republic will be overthrown.
NOTE: For tyranny of the majority, please see the term 'RINO Congress'.
I forget which framer it was, I think Benjamin Franklin, that said that democracies only last until their people realize they can vote themselves benefits from the public's treasury. We've taken that to an entirely new level when we learned we can vote for money that doesn't even exist yet because all we need to do is print as much of it as we want! I don't understand why previous generations didn't just do the same?
" I don't understand why previous generations didn't just do the same?"
I'm not an economist so I may be corrected here but it got out of control after Nixon took us off the gold standard. Prior to that, our reserve currency was tied to gold. When that happened in the early '70s, America PROMISED and crossed their heart to not abuse their ability to print money endlessly. You can see how quickly it got out of control in the last 50 years. Second, the Feds had a much stronger sense of the error of creating fiat currency and controlled themselves, even in the '70s. The corruption of the Fed came in later years, but is about 50 years old at this point.
Thanks Sheila, I enjoy them on Fridays and Sundays too. I erroneously posted that link to this comment, but moved it to my other comment for which it was intended so you can find it (and the entire Friday Funnies scroll) on my other comment here today.
"Maryland Man—A citizen of El Salvador that judges have declared is above the law of being returned to sender."
Related, because it's the same guy, even further euphemized:
Maryland Dad—a gang-tattooed human-trafficking wife-assaulting illegal alien who drinks margaritas with douchebag Senators and becomes, for some inexplicable reason, the darling of the MSM.
For me, the worst liberal lie is the idea that small government, leave-us-alone conservatives are "fascists". Fascism is a system of control that more or less leaves private property in the hands of compliant corporations but directs their steps. Or, to quote Mussolini, "everything is in the state, and no human or spiritual thing exists, or has any sort of value, outside the state."
How this happened is an excellent study in propaganda, but it come from the European model where the left is totalitarian but communist and the right is totalitarian but fascist. Both models are totalitarian - it's who owns what that matters. The left in this nation has successfully transferred this framing to our shores, labeling the American right as totalitarian, when in fact we are far from it (the feckless Deep State GOP not withstanding). It's a lie that has totally and completely redefined half of the nation. Very frustrating to say the least.
The whole reason fascists despised communists and communists despised fascists was merely because they were chief competitors for their ultimate goal for total control.
Both communists and fascists use red in their flags (but then, so do the U.S., Great Britain, France, Japan, and other countries - so, what's my point?)
Pretty comprehensive list! Makes one wonder why we still bother with Merriam-Webster when we can just ask the nearest Democrat for the meaning to any word.
I’d trust Merriam-Webster over any leftist-Marxist jacka$$ politician.
Then there is the word "progressive". Heh
Hitler progressed into Poland.
I kept my mother's 1958 dictionary (which she probably found in the 1990s) just so I could refer to the correct meanings of words before the woke tempest in a teapot.
Well....I have an unabridged Websters and you might be surprised how the current one compares....that said, it probably still comes out better...
Growing up in the ‘50’s & ‘60’s, our parents had an encyclopedic dictionary & thesaurus about a foot thick that we all used.
When they died, I asked if I could have it and still use it today.
We still have one too - MW New International Dictionary, Second Edition, 1952. It has its very own table because it’s so huge.
Sounds like we have the same one, table included.
My table seems to have sagged a bit over the years.
Ditto
I remember that my little sister used to sit on ours at the dinner table to be tall enough
We had one too! I sat on it at dinner time.
We used milk crates if we needed extra chairs.
OED, the Oxford English Dictionary.
A dictionary (Merriam-Webster or other) is another thing that the Gen-Z generation regards as "TL-DR" - "too long; didn't read".
Well....you don't have to "read it" although I had read about a man who lived in NoWheresVille who was so knowledgeable... Someone asked him about his travels to be so knowledgeable. He responded that he had never been any at all but that he had read the entire encyclopedia.
Everyone has a phone and yet far too many people see it as a phone for calling people, texting, and emails, instead of a being a handheld computer which contains how to spell words, what the meanings are, and a host of other things all found with a simple search query, basically a dictionary and an encyclopedia in everyone's hand but for which most are too mentally lazy to use. I would like Apple and other phone makers to stop referring to them as "phones"....that should be an adjunct use
......but you will want the 1828 edition.
Won't do any good to ask a Dim ; they will just lie to you . But hey , they can't help it . After reading Don's list , Merriam-Webster should be paying him to be " of counsel " .
Our world is now the Bizarro world. Anybody else tired of all the news coverage of the kidnapping. Repeating the same story over and over again without any new news. The only good thing is Minnesota is off the front pages.

A real journalist went to Omar's winery to check it out. Just like the Learing Center, nobody there. It's fake. It's how they laundered the Somali fraud money. Things might get interesting. I would love to see her denaturalized and deported after being convicted of fraud.
The website was crap, and sold no wine, phone disconnected. I was not surprised at there being no grapes or anything else at that address.
Also, everything disappeared on the winery. It was all scrubbed from the internet within 2-3 days of it being reported and going viral.
Why did Omar have a winery? She's a Muslim and Muslims aren't allowed to drink any drink with alcohol.
Muslims are allowed all sins if they are preparing to infiltrate against the infidel for Allah the goat humpers.
She’s special as Paul Lindman use to say.
I think you are being too kind here, Jake. Until these people start spending time in prison for their corruption of our laws, we will just see more of them. Omar and her ilk exist because we do not hold public servants accountable for their actions. MN is peanuts compared to what has been happening in California and other blue flag flying states for decades.
Well, regarding your last sentence, that is exactly how I feel about dual passported people...pick one if they both are for citizenship....I know many people with dual passports....either you are a US citizen or you are a citizen of another country...
Elon Musk has dual citizenship and he’s more American than he is African.
Well my ancestors were all German. That’s where they came from, not who I am or who I share allegiance with. I’m an American first. People who feel the need for dual citizenship need to pick a country. Otherwise, they are little different than carpetbaggers. Musk is a bright guy. Just pick one, Elon.
My ethnicity is German/Irish but I’m 100% American, as are my parents.
We are not talking about ethnicity. We are talking about citizenship. Basically, at some point in this country, we all become mutts....or Heinz 57...
I’m from Nicaragua….can junpleez gimme my US passport now Señor estúpido….
Absolutely agree.
I second that.
Right on! To paraphrase spike Lee... fight the scumbags that be!
I would also like very much to "spike lee!" Little cringe midget.
I think that is why it is getting so much coverage. To detract from the Fraud in MN and its big brother in CA.
Why is that a good thing? That spotlight needs to stay on at all hours of the day and night until that fraud and corruption running rampant and flagrant theft of taxpayer money in all states is revealed and punished.
It needs to stay on the front page until everyone involved is in jail or hell
Hell, please.
J.D. is the new fraud czar and is heading to Cali. to meet Nick Shirley so eyes open and popcorn at hand .
Nick Shirley for a Pulitzer.
Yep we need some judges, congressmen, senators, mayors, and district attorneys behind those 3/4 inch round bars that are about 5 inches apart. Nothing will change until that takes place. Remember though, government follows the culture not vice versa.
We are a fragile country held together by the rule of law and the inherent quest for freedom. It is not our economy or our military from which we derive our strength. But the rule of law is under attack by leftists. It is the 600 pound elephant no moral person can deny.

I'd never heard of the person who was kidnapped, and don't plan to find out. Does that make me heartless? After all, it's not the Lindberg baby.
Big hoax involving a ransom demand being used to distract attention.
Or the 300K illegal minors here that went missing under the Biden gang.
"There ya go!" as that TV detective used to say. The cowboy one.
that's what they wanted jake. the guthries family probably volunteered for this.
Kidnapping of an elderly woman is a sad event, but if she was not related to one of the "journalistic elite," we never would have heard about it.

You missed one dear Mr Surber:
Sensitivity Training: Rank political indoctrination/brainwashing under duress/threat of termination. This Soviet Union-inspired apparatchik is nothing short of a white people-hating political Kommissar renamed today as a “Diversity Officer”.
Totalitarians always go for the euphemism. Hat tip to the late, great David Horowitz who quipped, “Inside every “Progressive” is a Totalitarian Screaming to Get Out.”
Here's another one of his. "The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution."
I repeat that Horowitz quote a lot on FB. 😊
Also known as Discrimination, Exclusion, and Intimidation .
Best of the week Don! May GOD continue to protect President Donald J. Trump and the United States of America. Have a great weekend Surber-Pals!!!
Amen.
Amen, Al, back at ya! How is your snow load where you are? Anything melting? I'm thinking this might be the beginning of a new Ice Age. Deeper and deeper until we are all frozen and preserved inside out buried homes.
No snow, grew up in western NY, had enough snow living there to last a life time. 🤣
I hear you, brother. Grew up in Buffalo, where winter is the stuff memes are made of.
I grew up in Bristol/Canandaigua. Small world.
You forgot White Privilege - Being forced to pay for all the left wing insanity.
“At least I’ll go down a President”
Monica Lewinsky actually said that??
lol
I never get tired of that video clip of Obama saying that.
Accompanied with his gaybe microphone drop (spelled it out so as not to be confused with his husband, Mike).
good one
Pregnant person: what a woke “scientist” calls a pregnant woman in a scientific paper in the New England Journal of Medicine.
For the poll, I chose 81 million votes but would have liked to have that option plus the insurrection one.
As with many of Don’s polls, I was trying to identify the option with which the American left has caused the maximum damage to our beloved country.
Continuing damage. I read today that Kammy only won states that don't require voter ID. I gotta have Grok check that but it seems logical based on recent disclosures.
Continuing damage! Yes. We’re still suffering the damage done by Jimmah Carter 50 years ago. Our great grandchildren will still be suffering the damage inflicted by 0bama and pedo Joe. Trump is lessening the damage but there is only so much that he can do. And if we lose the midterms…
There seem to be so many internal conflicts going on in the country today that I fear people have reached the overload point and that could signal severe consequences in the midterms. It is clearly by design too.
They are also most likely sanctuary states.
One more for the list:
Sanctuary states - harboring criminals
👍🏻
Benny Johnson has been asserting that as fact on his show since shortly after the election.
I trust his show and its research far more than I do the left's narrative engineers.
I like Benny Johnson
Actually, she only won states that don’t require a modicum of intelligence in order to vote.
I was going to choose 81 million but then thought: Without that oh so obvious fraud, Trump 47 would not have been able to come roaring back with lessons learned and steel in his ...spine! Not to mention that Biden's presidency woke (not that kind of "woke"!) a lot of folks up to the Democrat's agenda and harm. The other four choices were equally worse but I ended up with "No one is illegal". The term illegal alien/immigrant always referred to a human being's circumstance and not the being him/her/it self.
My first thought was to pick the 81 million votes, but that turned out to be a blessing in disguise, miserable four years it was, though.
Remarkably, about 5 or more of those 81 million votes in 2020 just disappeared in 2024 - I say again, remarkably!
I think there are far too many “options” to count.
Controlling Language is the first thing they do. Everything else follows.
If you let them, you’re an accomplice!
‘Member it all started with being Politically Correct, because to be anything but was just mean’
Fuck that! And Fuck them!
And Don, ‘An unauthorized assisted suicide’ is rather awkward isn’t it? We have a much smoother and attractive name for it up here… MAiD… Medical Assistance in Dying… see how it rolls off the tongue? Catchy ain’t it!
I didn't realize it but a recent scientific study says that I am committing suicide one beer at a time. Goodbye cruel world.......
My 85 year old grandmother, a year before her death, told her doctor that he should probably know that she drank a beer with her dinner every day, sometimes two. He told her "have 3!"
Yeah, yeah, I've read that, too. My only question to them is: WHEN?!?!
In my politically naive days, I thought that being PC was actually a euphemism for being thoughtful and polite...i.e. don't say to someone what you wouldn't want said to you...but that it then morphed into something else...as always...
Since the word "politically" starts with the same 6 letters as the word "polite", it did have a subconscious positive tinge to it, that probably caused most of us to not sense too great a "red flag" about "politically correct".
That's what Rush always maintained - the left is the fastest gun when it comes to controlling the language.
Hi Chuck! I had not heard of that one, but I bet it's is sung to the same tune as "gender-affirming care".
That’s why Minute Maid stopped selling Orange Juice…..better margins in just MAID….no customer complaints either.
That was some of the most fun with words I’ve seen since Edwin Newman’s “Strictly Speaking.” Great job.

I found it. Sadly, this is nothing new. Isaih 5:20 "Woe to those who call evil good

It's amazing how the disciples of Satan can pervert the English language.
Rush Limbaugh was right about that as well.

Same beast, just different markings.
I've read that Hitler ordered the Nazi Party to give priority to aspiring new members who had been Communists ...
Same animal, just different stripes.
Yup. Both leftist ideologies.
Exactly!
Both communists and fascists use red in their flags (but then, so do the U.S., Great Britain, France, Japan, and other countries - so, what's my point?)
