    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) How convenient: the suspect in the Brown shooting was finally found, five days later, daid. He was a Portuguese foreign national (but what else?) Claudio Valente. I am NOT a conspiracy theorist. I am NOT a conspiracy theorist. (Brown shooting, MIT shooting of a Jewish man, FBI breaks up massive terror plot, Charlie Kirk shooting, attempts on President Trump---but the left has no hand in trying to do ANYTHING to distract from their upcoming extinction?) Wait, it gets worse. Far-lefoid glandjuggler students at Brown reportedly forced the University to disable cameras across campus so the violent pro-Hamas Murder Pirate/pro-Pale cheesesnooters wouldn't be indentified when they did their little "Free Palestine" rampages. 2) A few DemoKKKrats are feeling used, as in they are now claiming the GOP (the Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight) managed to maneuver Jazzy What-a-Crockett into dropping out of the House and running (hopelessly) for the Senate. I dunno, you guys think we're that smart? 3) The DOJ has now ordered voting records from Fulton Co. Fraud there? Nahhhhh. Except here we have pretty good evidence that Rutabaga stole GA in the 2020 election fraud. 4) Here's that infamous word, "eyeing," but . . . "Feds are eyeing civil rights violations vs feds who pursued Trump and MAGA." 5) The guys over at "Liberal Patriot' are apparently the only ones on the left who see where their policies of death are headed. Here they argue for "government realism" (i.e., you need Five-O), immigration realism (good luck) and, in their next column, merit realism and biological realism. Guys, these are all the positions of bigoted homophobic chilipeppers, and they are not going to apply realism to anything. 6) Seth Keshel summarizes the voter registration shifts, after roll purges, in all 57 states. Rs net gained 1.18 million last year. NY alone lost almost 80,000 Ds. 7) Related to this---and that 18% DemoKKKrat Congressional approval number? The DNC had commissioned a "what went wrong" study for the 2024 election. DNC Chairman Ken Martin (who booted out Lil' Hitler, David Hogglet) promised transparency. Oops. Now they are burying that, saying "Does this help us win? No." In other words, honesty about why they lost must take a back seat to fantasy about how they can, gosh-darn it, just win next time with no changes. Can it be worse? I dunno. Now the DemoKKKrats are at a pathetic 15% approval among men. Most likely, they are men named Sue. 8) "He'll be lucky to have a bookmobile." Donations to Rutabaga's presidential library fall. Remember the "rumors" during the campaign of 2024 that the Senior Skank was negotiating Rutabaga's drop out in return for gigantic sums for the library? 8) Today is deadline day for the release of all the Epstein stuff. We'll see. DOJ says it still cannot release everything just cuz . . . . 9) President Trump ordered a $1776 holiday bonus to all active duty military. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL NEWS 10) Federal Prosecutor Joe Thompson announced six more indictments in the Skinny Minny fraud case whose price tag may well now be $10 billion. Please make the Prancing Gheyboy, Tampon Timmy, one of those indictments. 11) Trump paused the green card lottery after the Brown shooting. Hmm. Do you think he was just waiting for some opportunity to do this, then make it permanent? 12) ICE had its most successful recruiting season ever. 13) Naww, the Amazing Zohran ain't no antisemite. Politico: Zohran's appointments chief quits amidst anti-Jewish posts. 14) Remember that WI judge who obstructed ICE agents? Yeah, a jury convicted her. IN CULTURAL NEWS 15) Little Benji Shapiro denounced the Tuckster and Candace Owens as "frauds" and "grifters" in his speech to TPUSA and also lambasted "conspiracy theorists." Ah, Benji, where have you been? Do you not know that 90% of the so-called "conspiracy theories" over the last 8 years have proven true? Hideous little man. I met him when Andrew Breitbart arranged a luncheon in my honor in LA around 2014. Didn't like him then, either. And for the record, I think Candace is a kookburger and I do not trust the Tuckster---never have. IN TRANSOID NEWS 16) HHS has moved to cut funding for ALL child mutilation procedures. Deputy HHS Secretary said "Men are men. Women are women." The sound of a million screeching transoids could be heard throughout the universe. Well, at least one or two. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 17) Hold on now! Trump Media is getting into nuclear fusion? Trump stock soars as it announces a merger with TAE Technologies. 18) U.S. GDP still growing at 3.5%. 19) Goldman seems to be expecting a boom and a party: Buy nicotine, and candy stocks, they said. 20) New evidence on side effects and blowback from the China Virus vax caused Pfizer shares to fall 5%. Just the first of many? 21) Triple Play: The Trump administration just achieved the economic triple play of tariffs, rate cuts, and falling inflation. DemoKKKrats who were about to ...

    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) Excellent news, as the War Department has upgraded its initial inquiry into Sen. Mark Moonman Kelly into an "Official Command Investigation." People, do you get how important this is? A military investigation goes to a military court, no spickle-duster Rutabaga civilian judges. 2) Boston area po-po, you know the same ones who after nearly three days still don't even have a face or name for the Brown U. shooter? Yeah, they are opening an investigation into the shooting of an MIT prof. I'm sure it was an Amish guy who is responsible. 3) Just the latest rot uncovered in the Rutabaga admin: he let in 18,000 "known" or "suspected" terrorists into the country. Tell me again this guy, like Zero, wasn't doing everything he could to destroy the United States. 4) Rob Reiner's son, Nick, has been taken into custody for slitting his parents' throats. He is not yet "medically ready" for a court appearance. New reports say that he would not sleep for days and fly into meth-filled rages. 5) President Trump has ordered a naval blockade off Venezuela to stop sanctioned oil tankers. 6) Dan Bongino has resigned as assistant director of the FBI. Bongino was reported to have been "ready to leave" over three months ago. There is no question he and AG Pam Bondi had different approaches to the mission, but he was the subordinate. However, this appears to be mostly about being separated from his family. I get it. Mrs. LS told me in the first Trump admin, when Bannon was discussing a couple of positions with me, that she was fine with me going, but she was NOT going to move. 7) Here are the 29 Rs and 22 Ds not seeking reelection. Many of the R spots are safe and present an opportunity for a more MAGA presence. 8) Shipwreckedcrew says the Covid fraud in Kollyfornia dwarfs the Skinny Minny fraud. It is crucial to understand that for today's DemoKKKrat Terror Party, fraud is a feature, not a bug. 9) "It'll be in the next batch." The DOJ is scheduled to release all Epstein files by Friday, but DemoKKKrats as always say there are more. There have to be, because Trump is not implicated in anything released so far. 10) NV is the latest of 18 states to be sued for voter data by the DOJ 11) A judge will not halt construction of President Trump's White House ballroom expansion. 12) SpewMore won't rule out another gubment shutdown, cuz, you know, the first one worked so well for DemoKKKrats. Today, a poll has them at 18% approval, an all time low. 13) President Trump designated street fentanyl as a "WMD." 14) "The Punisher," SecWar Pete Hegseth, is reorganizing the Pentagon away from Europe and war with Russia, and slashing the number lf 4-star generals. Good. Silly that we have such a top-heavy officer corps. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 15) Elon Musk's SpaceX valuation is now bigger than the deep state itself. 16) While some fret about the AI "bubble," Fortune estimates quantum computing will hit $198 billion in value. 17) Correct: Wolf Richter says the Fed should look at PRIVATE employment when making decisions, not "all." 18) Texas has sued five television makers for secretly spying on consumers. 19) Elon Musk is Boring. No, I don't mean un-interesting. His company, Boring, is using robot drillers to lay a subway type system under Las Vegas, which would use (Disney-style) Teslas to pick people up rather than mass transportation subway cars or train cars. 20) GM is investing $242 million to develop a skilled workforce. 21) Well deserved. Here is a tribute to the Rush Limbaugh of Energy, David Blackmon. And David himself weighs in on the woke Ford $1.9 billion hit it will take on EVs. Meanwhile, interest in EVs by gas-guzzler owners has fallen by 20%. IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS 22) The world spent $4 TRILLION to move the percentage of power supplied by oil, gas, and coal from 87% to 86%. 23) Of course, when Aussies are killed by a tag-team father/son terror duo firing single shot weapons, the Aussie government immediately spouts "gun control." The evil that these former Brit dominion nations (Canada, Australia, South Africa) have become is shocking. 24) Isn't this sweet? The terrorist networks of al-Qaeda, ISIS, and all the rest are strategically intermarried. 25) The head of Saskatchewan's transit union told the city that the electric buses they bought are only good for a couple of hours. A councilman, with the brain of a mustard seed, asked if maybe they could use the Electric Busses for the Spring, Summer, and Fall and use diesel busses in the winter. Sure, if you want to pay for two separate bus systems. By the way, these walking dung cocktails have thirteen more of these useless vehicles on order. I mean, this is up there with Sen. John Kennedy's quip that DemoKKKrats think they can fly to the sun as long as they flight at night. 26) This may do it: President Trump has sued the Bolshevik Broadcast Network (BBC) for %10 billion for lying in their cuts about the Patriot Day, (J6) festivities. When he ...

    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) I'm seeing a pattern here. More and more of the Trump cabinet are calling Kollylfornia's economy a "national security threat." The latest? Interior Sec Doug "Bring Back Real Conservation" Burgum. This may be a prelude for various types of federal involvement. 2) This column shows in six charts how Trump 2.0 is significantly different from the first administration. 3) We continue to see steady outperformance by Rs over Ds in voter registration. Indies are doing better than either, but in KS, Rs net gained about 200 on Ds. Meanwhile, Seth Keshel argues that AZ could become the new FL in terms of voter registration and GOP dominance. First we have to get rid of Moonman Kelly and El Pollo Gallego. 4) Several U.S. cities are under a terror alert after the Australia shootings. There was already a shooting at Brown University in RI that left 2 dead and several wounded. The FBI used its phone geolocation unit to identify a "person of interest," but no one has been arrested. Of course, reptilian DemoKKKrat Senator Chris Murphy (Spooge: CT) has blamed Trump for the shooting. 5) The moronic mayor of New Mogadishu (Minneapolis) tried to show solidarity with the Somalis by masticating on some of their food. It nearly made him gag. But hey, they don't eat the dogs. That's the Hatians. Don't Haitianize my Somalia. 6) Politico is trying to make it look like there is a split between President Trump and states over data centers. I say, "Nyet!: there is none. Trump is looking at federal regulation over AI in order to ensure national security. He isn't going to be concerned with the state issues of how they get power and water. 7) From Pew, trust in gubment has hit a new low. Good. Maybe people will start acting like free adults again. But how did it get to this? It all began when Newt Gingrich caved in the 1995 shutdown, which badly damaged the power of the House, especially over budgets. Since then, the House has been mostly irrelevant, simply rolling over Continuing Resolutions. Meanwhile the Senate, with its partisan minorities, consistently blocks nominees and legislation. . 8) Over 60% of security clearance data may be unreliable according to the GAO. 9) The FBI stopped a New Year's Eve terror attack in New Azteca (LA) by a pro-Pale group IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 10) Muy bueno. DemoKKKrats are embracing "abolish ICE." IN CULTURAL NEWS 11) Good chart here by Ryan Girdusky, showing black births in the South have plummeted; whites remain a majority of births in most states, and Hispanic births are falling in the southwest due to deportations. Imagine that. No mo "replacement." IN TRANSOID NEWS 12) From the great Ryan Burge, transoid identification peaked in 2020 and has fallen sharply, by 5 points, as of today. And it has fallen among all age groups. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 13) In recent decades so-called "conservatives" have been screaming to lower the trade deficit (but don't do it with actual industry or products, but by convincing Americans they don't need material goods). Now the trade deficit under Trump has fallen to a five year low. Not a peep out of the sawdustnibblers at NRO. Meanwhile the Wall Street Urinal got tariffs wrong. 14) President Trump has instructed Transpo Secretary Sean Duffy to remove regulations preventing the production of "microcars" such as they have in Japan. Oh, and speaking of cars, I am in love. Toyota has an incredible new super sports car. 15) Mortgage demand increased 4.8% last week. 17) From the Rush Limbaugh of Energy, David Blackmon, Texas is seeing high numbers of data center requests (220 gigawatts of new projects) One of my TX sources in the Dallas/Ft. Worth region says the land purchases by these data companies is off the charts and they are paying "too good to refuse" money. But they are soaking up the water table too. As I've been saying, the next decade's economic growth will come down to energy and water. IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS 18) At least 16 dead and 38 injured in Australia in a mass shooting labeled a "targeted attack on Jews" in a nation that has very strict gun control. A father-son team struck a beach celebration on Hannakuh A beachgoer tackled one of the gunmen from behind and disarmed him---not the police. 19) A poll in France, Mediocre Britain, and Germany shows large majorities of their voters think President Trump is stronger and more decisive than their own, er, "leaders." 20) Norway has flipped the bird to the greens, accelerating its oil and gas licensing. Good job, Rolands! Now about those Thompson Guns . . . . 21) One by one the patriots who challenge socialism are winning in South America. The latest is Chile's Jose Kast, who, now along with Jaiver Milei of Argentina and Nyeb Bukele of El Salvador. If the socialist government in Brazil can be un-elected, most of the continent will be more or less MSAGA. 22) Meanwhile, in Bulgaria, hundreds of thousands rallied in the streets and forced the pro-war/pro-EU ...
