Flotsam and Jetsam - A Hump Day Heap

A lot of material. Monday are slow because of the weekend, but it sure seems like pundits much churn out words on Tuesday.

At News Wax, Rubio Says UK Airbase Incident Involved Foreign State. Sundance at CTH, Rubio on U.S. RAF Fairford Base Terror Threat, “Clearly Involves the Hands of a Foreign Actor” But if you follow the logic from Beege Welborn at Hat Hair in The RAF Fairford Follies, Day Three UPDATE, it may just be a case of "British subjects" trying to steal diesel, either from large farms nearby or even the base. 

Also at News Wax, Belgian Official: Iran Inspired Attacks on Jewish Sites. Hugh Hewitt @hughhewitt, "Imagine millions of Americans believing the U.S. was not winning the battle with Germany in March of 1945. That’s where we are today vis-a-vis Iran. Incredible. And it’s not for lack of actual facts reported widely. It is the consequence of the mental prison of TDS." Hat Hair's Duane Patterson sees A Billion Reasons Why Iran Is Losing. Shaun Maguire @shaunmmaguire, "It was always obvious this would happen Basically from the first 48 hours of the War after the US + Israel dominated Iran’s air space America has Iran on the ropes And as a byproduct this is the most leverage America has had with China in a decade (they need Iran’s oil)." Quote The Wall Street Journal @WSJ, "Iran’s ability to choke off oil flowing through the Strait of Hormuz—and use that as leverage in talks with the U.S.—is breaking down." Joel Pollak @joelpollak, "Trump deserves credit for doing what even FDR would not: stopping a potential existential threat when the public did not favor a war, and when any difficulty would be blamed on "the Jews." Trump really did learn the lessons of history. Unlike many of his critics, right and left."

From Defense News, Russia raises 2027 military spending by 27%, budget documents show. News Wax hears Russia Offering US Recruits $26,000 Bonus to Fight Ukraine. "Ukrainian officials say at least 18 Americans have joined the Russian military." John Sexton at Hat Hair VIP warns Europe Expects More Russian Hybrid Attacks. 

Sundance hears Mark Carney Blames USA for Layoffs of Canadian Steel Workers "In reality it is (1) Canadian energy, climate and manufacturing policy; in combination with (2) the specific decision to allow the import of cheap steel from China; in combination with the decision to (3) rebuke U.S requests to stop purchasing that Chinese steel; that has driven out Canadian steel manufacturing."

Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh, "WOW! President Trump was just asked what his midterm message is for millions of Americans to vote red, and he dropped RAPID FIRE truth nukes to the Fake News in the Oval Office: - 17 months in a row of ZERO illegal crossings - The best crime numbers in history, even after Democrats let in 25 million people - The most jobs in the history of the United States - M*rders are lower than at any time since 1900 - New plants are being built every day, like today's $18B investment - $21 TRILLION being invested in America, the most in history - China has only $3 trillion, and Biden had just half a trillion - The war will be won very soon - Gas prices will come tumbling down - "Nobody else could have done that. Nobody else." - Democrats want to open the border back up." And Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh, " UPDATE: Donald Trump posted overnight CNN's admission that he has 98% PERCENT SUPPORT among the MAGA GOP "There's been no real decline in MAGA support...these folks say they're gonna vote for Congressional Republicans! That support is really holding up strong!" IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN. If EVERY 2024 MAGA voter comes out, it's over, Republicans would trounce in the Senate and likely retain the House The communists don't want us to vote, that's exactly why we need to!" Midterms are all about turnout. Tricia McLaughlin @TriciaOhio, "Fentanyl deaths are down 55% and Heroin deaths down 89% from their peaks. That’s a direct result of closing the border and enforcing the laws on the books." George Brooks at Am Think thinks about The math at the pump: Before you blame Trump, follow the damn barrel "Iran matters, refiners matter, supply matters—and the price on that sign has more than one father." AMAC says Voting Democrat – or Staying Home – Won’t Lower Gas Prices, "Democrats are obsessing over high fuel costs, but the historical record and their policy platform strongly suggests that things would be even worse if they were in charge." From RCP, Welcome to Gas Town "America’s diesel market looks like a Mad Max film. The America First fix is hiding in plain sight." At Da Caller, ‘The Perfect Storm’: GOP Strategists Cry Havoc As Poll Delivers Tough News For Lindsey Graham’s Sister. Roger Simon at Am Ref, discourses on Elon Musk & Why the Midterms Don’t Matter "Or don’t matter much." Rand Simberg @Simberg_Space, "There will be cloud cities on Venus, millions living on terraformed Mars, a vast increase in terrestrial wealth from mining the asteroids and moons of the gas giants, and morons will be saying "Elon Musk is an idiot. They haven't even gotten to Alpha Centauri."" DogeDesigner @cb_doge, "You don’t hate the legacy media enough.." 

At Da Caller, Vance Says He And Trump War-Gamed A Senate Floor Takeover To Pass SAVE America Act. From Reason, Once Recession-Proof, D.C. Feels the Pain From Federal Workforce Reductions, "Formerly tax-supported workers are discovering the uncertainties the private sector faces every day." Sundance, President Trump Launches “America.GOV” a Website for Everything Connected to Citizens and Government. Twitchy cites Sen. Mark Warner who Says 100,000 Virginians Have Been Kicked Off of SNAP Because of the Big Ugly Bill.  Althouse finds Do you mean "May President Trump Demolish the Kennedy Center?"? "I wonder, reading "Can President Trump Demolish the Kennedy Center?" in the NYT. Subheadline: "The president has entertained the idea of tearing down the performing arts venue. Analysts say any plan would face multiple daunting challenges."" And "That humans have long been aware of the corrosive danger from kowtowing, toadying, sucking up, piling it on thick, apple-polishing and otherwise bootlicking..." "...Write Matthew Gwyther — producer of the BBC documentary, "Sucking Up: A Guide to Sycophancy Through the Ages" — in "From the Garden of Eden to the president's Cabinet meetings, apple-polishing has a sorry history" (WaPo).

Cathy Salgado is happy Hegseth Ends Civilian Tenured Jobs at Military Academies. 

At Pirate's Cove,  Anthropic IPO Warns Of “Existential Risk To Humanity.” "This doesn’t sound like a good idea to sell stock." Martin Hackworth at Howlin' at the Moon in ii-V-I sees For whom the AI bell tolls, "Ask not for whom the bell tolls, educators and journalists, it tolls for thee." At Ars Technica, AI was supposed to hit new grads hard. So far, unemployment data says otherwise. “There is no evidence of any significant, widespread displacement or reduction in hiring.” Hat Hair's John Sexton says The Left's Fear-Mongering Over AI Was Inevitable. At Da Signal, the Great  Victor Davis Hanson on AI and the Same Old Politicized Hysteria. From Sundance, President Trump Hosts Meeting with Top U.S. Leaders in AI and Super Intelligence – Remarks and Video, President Trump Notes Super Intelligence Team Four Points for SI Frontier Research Safety. Da Caller says As Trump Meets Xi, Experts Say China Targets Weak Spots In Western Tech. I expect nothing less.

The Manhattan Inst. explains How States Can Cut Rules and Regulations—and Make It Stick. "Idaho’s Two-Step Process That Other States Can Copy."

PJM's Matt Margolis hears Frank Luntz Just Gave Democrats Devastating News About the Midterms "I'm looking at a turnout differential that advantages the Democrats by a couple of points, which means that there are more people who oppose Donald Trump, who are planning to vote, than those who support him," Luntz told CNN This Morning on Monday. "There's always been a historical advantage to the party out of power in the midterms, particularly in the first midterms." A couple of points? That's it?" At DataRepublican’s Substack, What Early Voting Shows: Week of September 29 "NC, Florida, and OH aren’t showing signs of a blue wave yet. But don’t get comfortable." Capt.

John Sexton satisfied as the Supreme Court Allows Third-Country Deportations. Mary Chastain at LI,  Supreme Court Clears Trump Admin to Resume Third-Country Deportations for Now. "However, SCOTUS will hear the merits of the case during the December 2026 argument session." News Wax, Justices Weighing Policy, OK Deportations to 3rd Countries.  Sundance, Supreme Court Allows Rapid Third-Country Deportations to Continue. Dave Catron at Am Spec hears Ketanji Brown Jackson Throws a Fit As Supreme Court Backs SAVE Voter Verification."The justice’s dissent over the SAVE voter-verification system continues her increasingly public dispute with the  Court’s majority."

Lara Logan @laralogan, "Absolutely brilliant move from Patrick Byrne. Well done. Imagine that a party to a lawsuit can just email the judge and get what they want almost instantly? If you are Dominion you don’t have to imagine - that is your reality. Why are these judges so corrupt? Many are compromised." Quote Patrick Byrne @PatrickByrne, "Dominion wrote to our Judge ex parte and got relief in 2 hours; the next day I tried the same thing: Dear Judge Nichols, I was impressed by the email from Dominion’s lawyer directly to you and impressed by the alacrity with which you acted upon it. Untutored in the august ways of the law as I am, I..." Read the whole letter, it's a masterpiece. At ET, Federal Judge Strikes Down New York’s $75 Billion Climate Superfund.

But if you only watch one video on this, let it be this one from Sundance, Senator Josh Hawley Confronts former Special Prosecutor Jack Smith During Explosive Senate Committee Hearing.

Charlie Martin at Insty LOVES THE SMELL OF NAPALM IN THE MORNING: Lindsay Clancy’s Lawyer Has Gone Completely Nuts With This Move. From Ace, Lindsay Clancy's Scumbag Lawyer Kevin Reddington Contradicts His Earlier Defense, Now Insists That There's No Evidence Lindsay Clancy Murdered Her Children at All. "He doesn't say it, but the Conspiracy Cultists claim that Patrick Clancy killed his children, then "hypnotized" Lindsay into believing she did it and confessing to it." John Sexton asks, and answers What's Happening With the Cornell 7 Case? Nicholas Fondacaro @NickFondacaro, "Sunny Hostin, a former sex crimes prosecutor, actually defends the Cornell 7. She argues that under New York State law, the girl consented and that the media is "reporting this story inaccurately. I think they're reporting it unfairly." "The pictures of these young men who have not been charged, not been adjudicated are being plastered all over the internet," she decried." I guess if it's not about Trump she's capable of rational thought. 


At Da Caller, Vance Sets The Record Straight On Mass Deportations "And my understanding of what happened is … if you, let’s say, have a DHS agent and that guy can deport one person that day, he can go and deport a violent criminal or a person who hasn’t committed a violent crime; of course, we’re going to prioritize the violent criminals.” “But that is not a reflection of overall deportation policy,” Vance added. “That’s about prioritizing fundamentally limited resources.”" Noah Pollak @NoahPollak, "This is the single most consequential policy to combat antisemitism in the US in the last decade and it's not even close. And the Trump admin -- and especially those like @StephenM who implemented it -- will get no thanks or credit from legacy Jewish organizations, which is shameful." Quote Rapid Response 47 @RapidResponse47, "Legal Immigration from Majority-Muslim Nations Was Cut 96% Since 2024." Da Caller again, Trump Invokes Rare Authority To Cancel Nearly $1,000,000,000 In Congressionally Approved Spending "President Donald Trump has moved to cancel more than $800 million that Congress approved for refugee aid, migrant education and diversity programs...Officials argued the money is no longer needed because illegal crossings have fallen sharply under Trump’s border policies. They labeled the spending wasteful and harmful to taxpayers." NYPo, Feds urged to crack down on fake passports, green cards along NYC’s Roosevelt Avenue. News Wax hears IRS Drafts Citizenship Question for 2027 Tax Returns. At CJ, Robert VerBruggen explains The Troubles With the H-1B Program, "Concrete Evidence."

Dave Strom is not a fan of UK Justice: Immigrant Who Set Asylum Hotel on Fire Gets Same Sentence As Lucy Connolly. Alice Smith @TheAliceSmith, "It’s never been clearer in the UK.

If you want to study african-american history or music theory, you still can. You simply need to pay for it or apply for private student loans. The student debt crisis in this country is insane and so many degrees today are absolutely useless. The reason college is so expensive now is because the US government started backing the loans. Obviously the universities were going to start charging $200k, because their customer is now the US government instead of the music theory kid. Taxpayers should only be subsidizing, and therefore incentivizing, degrees our nation actually needs: doctor, engineers, etc." Q uote The New Republic @newrepublic, "Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans.

InfantryDort @infantrydort, "You don’t know how radical they’ve become. That’s the mistake. A civilization ending mistake. Young white men are the most vilified cohort in the modern age. What shocks me is how people don’t understand what history says about vilified cohorts. Many people over the age of 40 simply forget, young white men don’t remember the super egalitarian post war order. The world we grew up in no longer exists. We were taught judge people by the content of their character and not the color of their skin. MLK etc etc. And by God, I still live by that. I see the divine spark in others. It’s what makes being a Soldier in this nation possible. We don’t care what you look like. Everyone is equally worthless. But sometime after the 90s, tribalism was injected back into this place. The super rare conditions that allowed for so many in this nation to live under one flag withered away. And it became politically useful to demonize one group above all others; white men..."

Flotsam and Jetsam - Terrorist Attack on US Military Assets in UK Thwarted, Terrorists Get Bail?

There's something very strange going on in England, where 5 "British citizen" of Muslim extraction were arrested outside of a joint UK/US airbase that serves the mid-east in several vans, after being reported by a local farmer. After the arrest, they were released on bond. Ace, Five Middle Eastern "UK Nationals" Arrested In Plot to Bomb Fairfield, UK Air Force Base Used by B-1 Bombers, "Five Middle Eastern and, for some reason, shirtless men were spotted by farmers acting suspiciously near the Fairfield, UK air force base." Patrick Christys @PatrickChristys, "Major update from counter terror police about RAF Fairford arrests - all UK nationals: Male, 24, Resident of Borough of Camden Male, 24, Borough of Westminster Male, 25, Borough of Westminster Male, 23, Borough of Westminster Male, 24, Borough of Willesden," Ramon Agusta @ramonagusta, "The former Hamas bodyguard also was a "British National". It's meaningless now." Hat Hair's Beege Welborn, RAF Fairford Plot, Day 2: Public Demanding Answers - Officials, Media Channel Norm MacDonald UPDATE. The Telegraph reports RAF base terror suspects released on bail. Sundance at CTH, British Justice System – Five Terrorists Detained at RAF Fairford Base Released on Bail. PJM's Cathy Salgado hears the UK Farmer Who Exposed Terror Plot Near U.S. Operations Speaks Out. Tommy Robinson @TRobinsonNewEra, "The farmer who called 999 over the suspects near RAF Fairford says she is "100% certain" she saw 8-10 men, not just the 5 that were arrested. She says she is surprised the police haven't contacted her to ask what she saw. She also revealed the message she sent to the village WhatsApp group after encountering the men." Darren Grimes @darrengrimes, "The farmer who called in the RAF Fairford incident has spoken. And she's not having Wes Streeting's spin. There were "definitely more than five," she says. Eight to ten. Faces covered. All dressed the same, "almost you'd have thought perhaps it was what they'd been told to wear." Five were arrested. All five are now out on bail. Streeting went on the telly to say she only had a "partial picture." Her reply? Nobody in any official capacity has even been in touch with her. So: a declared major incident. The one witness from that night says more men were there than were ever arrested. Not one official has picked up the phone to her. But the Defence Secretary found time to go on the BBC and mark down her account. Something doesn't add up." A practice run? Were they infiltrated and give dud explosives?

From NYPo, Trump’s Iran strategy is working — the ayatollah suffers as oil flows again. Beege Welborn reports Middle East Crude Running at 80 Percent of Pre-War Levels. Still, 20% is a big gap to cover with something as important as oil. Frack, baby, frack! VodkaPundit at Insty, LAST WEEK, THE WHITE HOUSE SQUASHED THIS RUMOR: Trump ‘very seriously’ considering diesel export ban as global supply crunch worsens. “The idea of the world’s largest diesel exporter implementing an outright ban has prompted firm pushback from the U.S. energy industry, while analysts have warned that the move could backfire and exacerbate the global fuel crisis.” The CO2 Coalition fears California Is Falling Into An Unrecoverable Deficit Of Refineries. I would say they cut off their nose to spite their face, but their nose is long gone. At the Auto Blog, Trump Approves Fuel Economy Rollback That Gives Gas Cars More Room. "The U.S. president said the decision will make cars more affordable and bring back jobs."

Don Surber explains how he thinks How Trump befriended and owned Xi. "Peace through strength. Trump’s the strength." Tom Kolbe at Am Spec, sees the Clash of the Money Giants: China Lays the Groundwork to Rival the Dollar "China builds a dollar killer — with one fatal flaw ...Yet a problem shimmers through in the background: there is a lack of trust in the  political integrity of the dictatorship in Beijing." Sundance hears Europe Asks China to Voluntarily Limit EV Exports. Yeah, that'll work. 

Sundance, Last Call – Imported Canadian Alcohol Ban Starts Tomorrow "Tomorrow, September 29th, the U.S. ban on most Canadian alcohol imports begins. [XO Link]" I guess I have to give up Canadian Whiskey. Oh, that's right, I don't drink Canadian whiskey. I don't have anything against it, I just don't have anything for it either. "The Crown Royal brand of Canadian Whiskey will not be impacted as it is shipped in bulk raw liquid to the U.S. where it is bottled, packaged and distributed." 

Brian  Kennedy and Joe Schmitz on Bosnia and Herzegovina: What Is the American People’s Interest? Other than the history that world wars tend to start in the neighborhood?

Leslie Eastman at LI, sees Data Centers Face Fines, Permit Delays as States Weigh AI Growth Against Local Impacts. "AI development should not be allowed to suffer death by 1,000 permits and 10,000 regulations….especially as the Chinese are linked so closely to environmental lawfare in this country." Beege Welborn hears Senate Democrats Seem Determined to Protect Data Centers and Everyone Should Know It. Kacee Allen @KaceeRAllen, "The House just voted 417-3 to stop making families eat the electric bill for giant AI data centers. The Ratepayer Protection Act tells states to consider forcing those 100-megawatt server farms to cover the full extra cost of the new plants and power lines they need, instead of passing it onto households. Both parties piled on because people are tired of watching their rates climb so a computer warehouse can sit next to a suburb. It still has to get through the Senate, and states can refuse the standard." Senate Republicans @SenateGOP, "Senator Schumer says the Ratepayer Protection Act is “a fraud.” Last week, Democrats blocked this bipartisan bill that would shield Americans from higher costs related to data centers. Democrats are standing in the way of lower prices." They prefer having an issue to having a solution. Sundance sees President Trump is Looking for an AI Czar – Then This Happens: Breanna Morello @Breanna Morello, "Tulsi Gabbard is visiting the White House today! Please bring her back!!!!" Superman @thesupermannx, "Researchers proved AI has deleted every reason universities exist. Harvard University ran a controlled experiment pitting a custom AI against their own top-tier classrooms. And the results are going to collapse the higher education bubble. They took 194 undergraduates and split them up. One group learned physics in one of Harvard’s best hands-on, active-learning physical classrooms. Group work. Instructor support. The premium university experience. The other group went home and learned the exact same material with an AI tutor. The AI didn't just win. It embarrassed the institution. Students using the AI learned more than twice as much as the students in the elite Harvard classroom. They scored 30% higher on the final assessment. And they did it in less time. Let that sink in..." Look for the teacher and faculty unions to lean even harder into their anti-AI stances. Hat Hair's Dave Strom call it the Same Narrative™: Selling Doom and Selling Stock Are Complementary.

Insty at his NYPo gig writes Media manipulates economic gloom — and it’s all about the midterms. They would downsell the economy during any Republican administration, but the fact that it's Trump and the midterms are looming certainly adds some fervor to their weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth. Eric Matheny @ericmmatheny, "We have an obligation to hold GOP Congress members accountable, and when they fall short, we need to primary the living hell out of them. But to sit out the midterm? You’ve already seen how Democrat power works. Did you not live through the Biden administration?" Sundance, President Trump Announces Largest Steel Plant in U.S. History Being Built in Iowa. Robert Sterling @RobertMSterling, "what Elon Musk has done to make my life better: - electric cars - satellite internet - saved free speech what Jeff Bezos has done to make my life better: - nationwide next-day delivery - architecture that powers the internet what Larry Page and Sergey Brin have done to make my life better: - made the internet searchable - online email and documents platform what Mark Zuckerberg has done to make my life better: - social media to keep me connected to friends - online ads platform what Larry Ellison has done to make my life better: - database software for my businesses - data centers for AI and cloud computing what Jensen Huang has done to make my life better - hardware that powers the AI revolution what Bernie Sanders has done to make my life better Absolutely Nothing."

From State of the Day, State of Friday: AMERICANISM ISN'T BAD. IT'S SIMPLY REPUBLICAN."

At Hat Hair a Larry vid, AOC's Political Future Crumbling? Democrats Warn Her To ‘Stay Away.' and Mitch Berg, Minnesota Senate Candidate: "She's Just Like Us!" and John Sexton, Some Dems Take a Different Approach to Trans Issues This Year. I have no doubt they doublecross their voters once in office. Matt Vespa at TownHall hears a Liberal Podcaster Had the Lamest Excuse for the Alaska Dem Who Called Her Staffers F****ts. "There's not a gay guy from Austin to underneath the docks in Provincetown who wouldn't be happily called a c*m guzzling f*g to have a Democratic Senate. Just a mincing butt munching pirate. You may call us whatever the f*ck you want if you win this seat." To be fair, they almost certainly are faggots, being Democrats.

Via the Wombat's In The Mailbox: 09.28.26, Doug Ross has the  Top Ten Reasons To Vote Democrat in November, and a whole lot more. 

Unleash Prosperity says This Is What Happens When the Government Runs Health Care. Steve Forbes @SteveForbesCEO, "760,000 ObamaCare enrollees had no Social Security or immigration numbers, paid no premiums and filed no medical claims. Yet taxpayers were footing their bills. ObamaCare has a fraud problem, not a coverage problem. Glad to see the Trump administration cleaning up the mess."  The View From North Central Idaho thinks Democrats can be Unintentionally Hilarious Sometimes. "Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) reposted a chart on X Tuesday claiming housing prices are “the most unaffordable in history,” and that it was Trump’s fault. There was just one huge problem. The chart Newsom shared showed that the housing affordability gap actually widened during Joe Biden’s presidency, and X users noticed almost instantly, flooding his replies with screenshots of the very data he’d just posted as though it helped his argument. It didn’t take long for the pile-on to turn Newsom’s own post into a meme about his reading comprehension. But the funny thing about it is that Democrats keep doing this."


Andy Ngo @MrAndyNgo, Quote Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias, "DC crime has fallen enough that the CVS by my house has stopped locking the locks on the cases they installed during Peak Shoplifting and it’s such a quality of life upgrade." Elvon @_Elvon_, "He admits his mistake. I think that’s admirable." But he won't credit Trump. The Babylon Bee @TheBabylonBee, "Batman Unable To Keep Up With Rising Crime As Gotham City Elects Another Democrat."

John Sexton hears Justice Alito Recuses Himself From Climate Change Case "Conservative Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito will no longer participate in a major climate change case after facing calls that he recuse himself because of his stock holdings in oil companies. ... Presumably, they wouldn't be doing this without a game plan, so it's a good bet they have some reason to hope a tie is possible. Again, I don't see how or have any idea which conservative justice they see as the weak link but maybe we'll get more on that in the coming days." The Indomitable Margot Cleveland at Da Fed asserts Everything About The Catherine Herridge Contempt Case Stinks, "presiding over the case is a federal judge whose wife represented (or represents) multiple high-profile subjects whose misconduct Herridge exposed in her reporting, such as Lisa Page and Joe Biden."

Dave Manney at PJM thinks Your SEO Guy Should Probably Not Be Fabricating Federal Court Orders, Google. PJM's Vicky Taft predicts The Pressure on Lindsay Clancy Holdout Juror Is About to Go Nuclear. "The attorney for Lindsay Clancy, whose triple murder trial ended recently in a mistrial, wants the holdout juror to be investigated for some kind of crime. He doesn't know what crime, but that hardly matters. This is still a public relations gambit and not a search for truth. That ideal left the building a long time ago."

At Hat Hair, Beege Welborn wonders Is Donald Trump Finally Tired of Maria Salazar?, Dave Strom cites a Saint Louis NGO: Let's Become 'Little Kabul' and asks Why Would Anybody in a Swing District Say This? RNC Research @RNCResearch, "INSANE Democrat Tom Suozzi says his biggest goal in politics is mass amnesty for criminal illegals: "My biggest goal of what I want to accomplish in politics right now is I want to legalize 7 or 8 or 9 or 10 million people in our country."" From Restoration News, the Violent History of Criminal Illegal Aliens in Jersey is Ignored by Democrats and News Media. Shipwreckedcrew writes the Democrat Priority Is Keeping Illegal Aliens In The Country And Out Of Jail -- Even If Pardons Are Necessary, "NY. Gov. Hochul pardons a violent illegal alien felon rather than risk the Supreme Court ruling that such illegal aliens do not have a “due process” right to a bail hearing." Christopher C. Cuomo @ChrisCuomo, "No accountability...just "they are worse"...this guy is going to have a lot to answer for when he flees maga." Quote Scott Jennings @ScottJenningsKY, "As you struggle to pay your own bills, are you prepared to pay the bills for millions of non-citizens, too? That’s what Democrats are proposing - and every GOP campaign ought to be all over it."

Quote The Hill @thehill, "Education Department formally rescinds Title IX protections for LGBTQ students " Michael Tracey @mtracey, "This is how Cornell University is getting the figure that 35% of undergraduate women experienced "nonconsensual sexual contact" in 2025. Or in other words, that over a third of all undergraduate women were "raped," to use popular parlance" PJM's Eric Florack is amused by The Last Ditch: Cancel Culture Comes for the Bar It Built.

YNet reports Sydney Sweeney converting to Judaism? Rosh Hashanah outing fuels rumors "Rumors intensified after the ‘Euphoria’ star attended Rosh Hashanah services with Scooter Braun, as reports say their relationship is becoming increasingly serious." Ace asks Hollywood: Shit or Garbage? Why not both? TownHall's Amy Curtis wants to know if you can Guess Who New York Magazine Featured in Its Men's Style Issue,"Elliot" Page. Isabel Brown @theisabelb, "So just so I understand this… New York Magazine releases its first ever issue on men’s style, and features a woman pretending to be a man on the cover. What message does this send?" No picture needed.

Joanne Jacobs sees Teach for America veered left and lost its way: Can it refocus on achievement? It's doubtful. "Applications for TFA slots peaked in 2013, then began a long slide as mission creep set in, he writes. The size of the teaching corps declined. And, Chu writes, TFA’s “public messaging began weighing in more directly on policing, structural racism, gender, and identity.”" VodkaPundit at Insty says Went Woke, going broke. Steven Crowder @scrowder, "Steven Crowder asks Harvard Law Professor Randall Kennedy directly if he would have signed Harvard's DEI pledge to get tenure. Watch him try to answer."

Flotsam and Jetsam - Will Russia Really Invade Estonia?

John Sexton at Hat Hair hears a Moscow Refinery Shut Down After Election Day Attack. Streiff at RedState, notes Russia Lost Its Refineries and Trump Lost the Energy Ceasefire He Announced. PJM's VodkaPundit asks Who Had 'World War III Starting in Estonia' on Their 2026 Bingo Card? Insty, “WHAT WILL BRING WORLD WAR III?” “IT’LL PROBABLY BE SOME DAMN FOOL THING IN THE BALTICS.” Eric S. Raymond @esrtweet, "The city of Narva, Estonia, sits at the Russian border, on the Narva river, opposite the zone where the Russians have declared a curfew for its inhabitants and a no-go zone for people who don't already live there. Narva is 87% ethnic Russian. There are intelligence reports that Russia has been building hospital facilities near this border. Russian border guards have been spotted shoring up the banks of the Narva River in exactly the way you would expect if you thought they were going to throw expedient military bridges across it. ..." Howling Wolf gives us a Heads-Up! Tom Kratman @TKratman, "Several possibilities. 1) It is a bluff designed to distract us from the Ukraine. 2) It is a bluff designed to make us worry about the outbreak of general war without regard to the Ukraine. 3) It is real and indicates a willingness to fight the US and the pathetic rump of NATO. 4) It is real but indicates an intent only to grab Narva, in the belief that we wouldn't fight over it or that Estonia would accept a little border rectification rather than risk more general destruction. I'd say the order of likelihood is 1), 4), 2), 3) 3), in particular, I'd consider least likely because Russian performance in the Ukraine does not justify having much faith in the Russian armed forces against even us and Poland, alone. Or even Poland, alone." At Covid and Coffee, NATO FROZE OVER. Northern Barbarian @xnoesbueno, "Sounds like a good idea. Russia seems to need a pointed reminder. And so does the rest of NATO." Quote War Correspondent @warDaniel47, "BREAKING: President Trump is officially moving towards establishing an ARMY base in the country of POLAND, after the election of right-wing President Karol Nawrocki. GREAT idea! They share our interests!" Northern Barbarian @xnoesbueno, "Keeps the Russians out. They don’t want to cross that line." Northern Barbarian @xnoesbueno, "Though frankly with all this Russian war talk in Britain and now Estonia, I find it hard to imagine the Russians could mount another land campaign, or another war of any kind. They’re having a hard enough time with the one they have going." VodkaPundit at Insty, IN THE GRAND OLD TRADITION OF STALIN ORDERING TROTSKY MURDERED IN MEXICO: "Russia Allegedly Went Shopping for a Hitman in America. The Price Was $40,000. “An indictment unsealed in Manhattan charges five people with working in a network tied to Russian intelligence services. Prosecutors say the network recruited people in America to surveil Russian dissidents and, in at least one case, tried to recruit someone to carry out a killing here. All five defendants remain at large.”" Trent Telenko @TrentTelenko, "This visual of how Ukraine evacuates casualties in the age of drones demonstrates the US Army Medical Branch's block obsolescence. The Geneva convention is dead in the age of drones, which makes crewed medevac vehicles priority target death traps. Air & ground evacuation drones are the way."

Bob Hoge at RedState hears Iran Claims an 'Astonishing' New Weapons As Trump Weighs Three Options to End the Conflict. John Sexton asks What's Next in Iran? Kenneth R. Timmerman at Am Think thinks This Is The War That Ends The Endless Wars "Republicans, grow a spine and explain to your constituents what this war is all about." From the Telegraph, There’s only one way to defeat the Houthis. "The only sure way to remove the danger posed to the global economy by Iranian-backed militias in Iraq and the Houthis in Yemen is to cut off the head of the snake that funds them." Dave Strom, Award-Winning Gaza Journalist Admits That Hamas Controls the Media Narrative™. Max @MaxNordau, "BOMBSHELL: Motaz Azaiza admits Gazans were hoping for war. "Let me tell you a secret. I don't know if you'll keep it in. A lot of people in Gaza were wishing the war would come." Why? "When a war or an escalation comes, the NGOs talk to you. There's a job opportunity." "People only know us through war." The most prominent "photojournalist" in Gaza admits that Gazans wanted a war because it would convince international organizations to give them money." NYPo, Gaza journalist who met with Mamdani admits he buried Oct. 7 footage of Israeli hostages being beaten to protect perpetrators. The Drunk Republican @DrunkRepub, "This “free Palestine” movement is a social contagion. None of these people have any knowledge of the history of the conflict or the current politics of the region. It’s just the latest thing to show off, like the trans movement or a new pair of Nikes."

Hat Hair's Beege Welborn, quotes Germany's Merz on Sunday's Election Results: 'We Can’t Sugarcoat It, It Was a Disaster.' As the Telegraph puts it, Merz’s CDU suffers total wipeout in state election. Ace, AfD Wins Another Regional Election in Germany; Ruling Chancellor's Party Collapses So Badly It Fails to Win a Single Seat in the Regional Parliament. Jo Bhakdi @JOBhakdi, "Imagine you are the police, there is a political coup and your new boss are now the clans you used to fight. An interesting situation which plays out in the German capital as well as in many Swedish cities...." Rod Dreher @roddreher, "Serious question: why should Englishmen fight to defend the prerogatives of a ruling class that has utterly failed in its duty to the people it governs? And not only that, but seems to actively despise them?" Quote Jacob Rees-Mogg @Jacob_Rees_Mogg, "We need to bring back Duty and the Stiff Upper Lip."

Sundance at CTH hosts Secretary Bessent Discussing the 12-Hour Session with Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng (sic), a Must Watch Interview with USTR Jamieson Greer – China, Europe, Canada and Beyond and Trump Dumps Globalist Potash Supplier, Canada, for Nationalist Potash Supplier, Belarus. Maybe. The US has potash too, but we don't mine much because of NIMBY.

At Am Prosp, Congressional Democrats in Hysterics About Saving the World From AI, "Why panic when you could just use existing laws?" Dave Strom, Moral Panics Are the Preferred Tool to Gain Control of Society Insty sees PANIC: "Human extinction fears make me want to flee AI and live on an island. Hope that works out for you." Peter St Onge, Ph.D. @profstonge, "Bessent: No Liability Shield for AI Good call. If AI really is as dangerous as their paid activists claim, the solution is more liability. As for the claim liability will strangle the industry, the fix is neuter the trial lawyer lobby, not give out free passes to break stuff and walk away."Quote Wall Street Rollup @WallStRollup, "Scott Bessent makes it clear the Trump Administration will not take model liability off the hands of the AI labs:" You had me at neuter the lawyers. PJM's Scott Pinsker thinks Something Very Strange Is Happening With Trump and AI Users — and It Just Might Swing the Midterms. "Trump's approval stood at 54 percent among daily AI users, compared with 45 percent who disapproved, leaving him nine points above water with this group. Weekly AI users gave Trump a net rating (those who approve minus those who disapprove) of minus 35 points. Monthly users recorded a net rating of minus 50 points, the weakest result among all groups." Stephen L. Miller @redsteeze, "It's not that hard. The left lets institutions and communities break down to a point of total degradation to prove why more government and non profits are the answer .... Mostly the concern I see on the political right over AI is cultural because there's nothing more that the political left and the Democratic Party wants them to get their claws into AI. Because once an AI is programmed to tell people that boys can become girls it's the death of truth. Data centers being built isn't the problem, the data in those data centers is." Quote David Sacks @DavidSacks, "While I’m no fan of socialism or arbitrary confiscations of wealth, I can see why Bernie Sanders’ proposal (for the government to take a 50% stake in AI companies) resonates, including with many on the right. The CEOs of the leading AI labs have told us repeatedly that they will x.com/BernieSanders/…"

RedState's Sister Toldja toldja Trump Ties the Press in Knots During Visit With Mamdani at Gracie Mansion. Sundance, President Trump and Communist NYC Mayor Mamdani Hold a Press Availability at Gracie Mansion. "The Make America Great mission does not care about feelings, it’s about results. Washington DC hates him, yet President Trump has restored the parks and monuments, for everyone in Washington DC. The same applies here. President Trump walked into Gracie Mansion because he refuses to facilitate incompetence. President Trump is watching Mamdani, and the New York Mayor knows Trump is watching."

From Fortune, Treasury yields are already blowing up the CBO’s long-term forecasts, and experts who previously downplayed U.S. debt fears are now starting to worry. Jesse Kelly @JesseKellyDC, "You’ve had negative net migration for the first time in your entire life and I don’t even know how old you are. You don’t vote because Trump and the GOP delivered on everything. You vote because the communists will make it all much worse." Quote Critical Semite Theory @CST_Professor Replying to @JesseKellyDC, "I voted for Mass Deportations, better economy and no new wars. I got the 'Retreat from Minnesota', $4.50/gal gas and a new war at Israel's behest."

Defiant L’s @DefiantLs, "Hasan Piker: "The Republican Party has become a fascist party in America. It's turning into a fascist party ideologically in the United States."https://x.com" Yeah he's definitely gonna be campaigning for Democrats. Sure, some have denounced him but I reckon he'll tone down his crazy rhetoric and push more of the same used up card that Democrats actually approve of... Republicans are fascists and they hate America. Will it work though? I guess only time will tell." At Am Spec, Dan Flynn thinks Six Degrees of Hasan Piker Not a Winning Strategy. "Voters have often declined to judge candidates by their company." Jake Altman @TradeUnionJake, "Prominent Abdul El-Sayed supporter and former DNC member Liano Sharon, a signatory of the “Michigan Jews for Democracy” letter voicing support for El-Sayed, stated today that Haley Stevens should not face the death penalty because, “I don't support the death penalty, even for neo-Nazis.” Sharon also said that the statement, “We will see you at the gallows,” “carries a very appropriate sentiment.”..." Stu Smith @thestustustudio, "At the U20 Mayors Summit, Mamdani Says the Left Has Ceded “Quality of Life,” “Efficiency,” and “Fraud and Waste” to the Right This was one of the more interesting arguments Zohran Mamdani made today at the U20 Mayors Summit, and a reminder that he can be genuinely sharp when he drops the “central casting” routine. “In New York City, there are certain words that have taken on ideological associations.” “Quality of life has come to be seen as somehow a right-wing concern. Efficiency… has been taken on as a right-wing concern, rooting out fraud and waste, a right-wing concern....” In a Hat Hair vid, Scott Jennings says It's Time to Fight Back Against Socialism. Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh, "WTF!? Denver socialist candidate for mayor Shontel Lewis that her STEALING thousands in public food stamps QUALIFIES her to serve as mayor "I actually think that experience is what actually QUALIFIES me...I did something silly." You literally can't make this up — she says stealing from the taxpayer QUALIFIES her for mayor At least she's being honest, THAT'S WHAT SOCIALISTS DO for a LIVING. This is actually a disqualification. At Quotulatiousness “Honest” graft « We have enough fraud in America, especially in food stamps!" From Lawrence Person's BattleSwarm Blog Los Angeles is Dead Last In Housing Affordability. Paul Valas at John Kass, Brandon Johnson’s So-Called Progressive Equity Agenda Is a Potemkin Village That’s Hurting the Black Community, but I'll be his friends are getting rich. 

MD Kittle at Da Fed says New Records Suggest ActBlue Opened The Door Wide To Foreign Donors, but we already knew that. At Data Republican's Substack I mapped 25+ GB of Effective Altruism material. Here's what I learned. "Why Effective Altruism should be banned from AI safety, policy-making, and governance."

@OliLondonTV, "Jamie Lee Curtis and Robert De Niro pledge to defend the U.S. Constitution in new campaign to protest Trump. “I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”" Western Lensman @WesternLensman, "Remember in 2016 when some of these same Hollywooders made a video begging Republican electors to defy the will of voters and not cast their votes for Trump." Steve Richards at JTN reports Prosecutors zero in on John Brennan’s role in Trump-Russia collusion narrative in conspiracy case, "Federal prosecutors will likely examine ex-CIA Director John Brennan’s pivotal role at the beginning, in the middle, and during the aftermath of the Trump-Russia investigation as part of the grand conspiracy probe." PJM's Matt Margolis says Now We Have Proof That the FBI Protected Biden in Classified Docs Case. At Althouse, Meade texts me from upstairs, at 5:47 a.m., about how badly Democrats want to be rid of Donald Trump. "I'd say there's a majority — 54% — who fail to disapprove of assassination. AND: Only 28% disapprove of a military coup to oust Trump." 

At NYPo, Justice Department charges 16 across multiple states with alleged illegal voting, election crimes and Jonathan Turley thinks Soros-funded DA Larry Krasner may have finally taken his ‘free all criminals’ too far. The Patriarch Tree @PatriarchTree, "Here you go, @AAGDhillon: Should be an easy layup." Quote Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes, "A new “reparations” program is launching in Germantown, Philadelphia to help Black families buy homes - Must identify as Black - Only black residents are eligible for the grants."

At CJ, Ilya Shapiro warns Don’t Judge the Supreme Court by Its Polls "Public confidence is down in an age of collapsing institutional trust, but Americans still generally support the Court’s rulings." It may be our least corrupted institution. 

Matt Vespa at TownHall asserts Unhinged Female Jurors Are Mad That the Lindsay Clancy Holdout Focused on the Facts and Patrick Clancy's 60 Minutes Interview Was Devastating. Sarah Anderson at PJM in tears 'He Died in My Arms' — Lindsay Clancy's Ex-Husband Speaks. The baby took days to die. Dave Strom on The Moral Perversion That Lies at the Heart of Lindsay Clancy's Support. Larry Correia @monsterhunter45, "To put the banality of evil into perspective, this reply is in the comments to the an article about an old lady in Canada changing her mind about getting MAIDed, the government killing her anyway, and to make it extra horrible, they botched it so she died terrified and covered in her own blood. But you know, in America sometimes dentists pull the wrong teeth!" Quote Sirenity @Sirenity_yyc "g to @DailyMail, "Shitty doctors exist in every country. Do we need to look at the ones who fuelled the opioid crisis in the US or the dentists in the US who erroneously extracted teeth?"

Steve Camarota at Am Mind says The “Trump Effect” on Immigration Is Real. Cathy Salgado at PJM looks at 16 Months of Zero Border Releases and a Crackdown on Illegal Alien Voting. At Ace's Morning Rant, Buck Throckmorton likes how a new Trump Executive Order Targets Employers that Lay Off American Citizens to Hire Foreign H-1B Labor. Auron MacIntyre @AuronMacintyre, "The GOP is a clown show but if the Dems gain power they will simply end all immigration enforcement and the country will be over They have said this explicitly, repeatedly, and consistently." Quote Rapid Response 47 @RapidResponse47, "Texas Rep. Greg Casar compares immigration enforcement to "war" and says the only way "for Austin to be safe" is to stop enforcing immigration law altogether." Beege Welborn observes Dem Rep. Making Sure Austin Stays Angry Over ICE Shooting. 

Dave Strom cites a UK Whistleblower: 99 percent of Asylum Claims Are Fake "He said he had encountered a large number of Iraqi Kurds claiming asylum who said they had been in a relationship with the daughter of the prime minister of the Kurdistan region. The official said it had become a “running joke” among colleagues that the number of Iraqi Kurds who said they were involved with the daughter was in the “hundreds”." Ace, Whistleblower: 99% of Asylum Claims Are Fake, "You don't say. You don't say."Visegrád 24 @visegrad24, "Denmark granted special residence permits to 321 stateless Palestinians from Lebanon in 1992. By the end of 2019, Danish government data showed that 196 of the original 321 (61%) had been found guilty of at least one criminal offense. Together, the 196 accumulated 881 criminal convictions or other guilty decisions between 1992 and 2019. The pattern extended into the next generation. Of 999 children of the original refugees who were living in Denmark at the end of 2019, 337, or roughly 34%, had been convicted of a crime."

Ace woke up and noticed Trump Announces Ban on CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from White House Press Room. Matt Margolis remembers when CNN Wanted Biden to Ban Fox News From the White House. From Twitchy, Scott Bessent Can't Help but LAUGH As CNBC Journo Tries Arguing With Him About the 1st Amendment. John Ocasio-Rodham Nolte @NolteNC, "Vance is so damn good at this. Look at how affable he is while hitting CNN, MS NOW, and Politico in the middle of the head with a ball-peen hammer. "Special access" is the exact right way to frame this... Because that's what it is... And we all remember these outlets pushing to have Trump blacklisted from social media. We all know these outlets censor Trump's statements and speeches by refusing to cover them. We all remember these outlets remaining silent when Biden revoked special White House access for hundreds of media outlets. https://x.com/EricLDaugh/status." Sundance likes how JD Vance Dismisses Three Media Networks Apoplexy About Losing White House “Special Access” and features Susan Kokinda Making Some Good Points. Don Surber says Trump learned, DC didn’t, "Why the second presidency rocks."

Brad R. Torgersen @BradRTorgersen, "British author Mary Harrington speculates than an afternoon spent fishing in the company of other men has x10 the therapeutic benefit of a counselor's office visit. Get outside. Be out there doing things with other men. And if you have a good relationship with your father, spend time with your Dad. Your Dad has been where you are. Your Dad knows. Talk to your Dad." Quote D.J. Butler -- Sci-Fi / Fantasy Author and Editor @DavidJohnButler, "Men, it's good to have other men as friends. Ride motorcycles together. Go shooting. Read books. Play games. Make things. Share your experiences of being a son, a husband, a father."
