HOW TRUMP OUT-SMARTED THE DEEP STATE BUREAUCRATS: There are no sources for this otherwise inspiring report on EKO. I can’t vouch for it’s accuracy, but, if it is true, then the Left had no clue about what was about to happen to them after November 5.
OUT ON A LIMB: ‘If you genuinely think Trump is a fascist, go and have a lie down.’
Benito Mussolini, Adolf Hitler, Donald Trump. Il Duce, der Führer, The Donald. The Roman salute, the Sieg Heil, the YMCA dance. The comparison is so absurd it practically debunks itself.
Anyone who genuinely thinks that Trump’s America – whatever else you might think of the man or his policies – can be mentioned in the same breath as fascist Italy or Nazi Germany needs to get a grip.
Because let’s be clear about what we are talking about here. Fascism, and especially its Nazi incarnation, was an evil the like of which the world had never seen before. Or, thankfully, since.
Totalitarian control. Messianic dictatorship. A cult of racial superiority. Paramilitaries crushing the left at home. A Darwinian military struggle for supremacy abroad. The worship of war and violence. The mechanised attempt to murder all of Europe’s Jews.
If this sounds anything like America in 2025 to you, then I suggest you leave here right now and go and have a nice, long lie down.
Trump is many things. He’s a right-wing populist. He’s a trenchant opponent of illegal and mass migration. He’s a culture warrior. He can also be a thin-skinned, occasionally conspiratorial, blowhard.
But try as I might, I am struggling to find the extermination camps or the goose-stepping gunmen killing with impunity. Perhaps my colleagues on the other side can enlighten me.
Orange Hitler is really fumbling that whole Gleichschaltung thing quite badly for some strange reason:

A HUGE SUBSIDY TO ACADEMIA JUST BIT THE DUST: NIH slashes overhead payments for research, sparking outrage: Move to cut indirect cost rate to 15% could cost universities billions of dollars.

Elon’s strategy of unashamedly mocking the critics and having fun is exactly right.
TRUMP REVOKES BIDEN’S SECURITY CLEARANCE, ACCESS TO DAILY INTELLIGENCE BRIEFINGS:
Trump stated there is no need for Biden to continue receiving access to classified information and that his administration cited Biden’s ‘poor memory”.
Trump, 78, argued that the former president set the precedent when he barred him from receiving access to the same briefings four years ago, citing Trump’s “erratic behavior.”
“There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social Post.
“Therefore, we are immediately revoking Joe Biden’s Security Clearances, and stopping his daily Intelligence Briefings,” the president continued.
That’s truly shocking — where would Trump get such an idea?! Oh wait:
Hey Joe,
Thanks for setting this precedent. pic.twitter.com/75S0LKqQlp

WELL SAID, J.D.:
I cannot overstate how much I loathe this emotional blackmail pretending to be concern.
My kids, god willing, will be risk takers. They won't think constantly about whether a flippant comment or a wrong viewpoint will follow them around for the rest of their lives.
They will…

GRAY LADY DIVES FOR FAINTING COUCH:
The poor New York Times is pushing its Trump Derangement Syndrome meltdown well past eleven. Here are just a few opinion section headlines from the last couple days:
Those are just a few Times headlines that Steve Hayward of Power Line has collated; click over for the rest. If your friends or relatives get all/most of their news from the Gray Lady, you might want to do a wellness check-in.
Not the WaPo is much better, of course:

WE CAN HOPE: Matt Taibbi: The Media is Busted. And will soon die. “I held off on writing about the ‘payoffs’-to-media story, for fear I might say too much. The betrayal I feel is almost too vast to express. It’s bad enough that I grew old in this business watching it break its own rules, screw up, and smear its best practitioners, many of whom were friends or mentors. Now, at a critical juncture, the smearers are playing victim. It’s the last straw. The legacy press needs to be put out of its misery.”
MARK JUDGE: Elon and the End of the American Stasi.
OPEN THREAD: Ring in the weekend.

By saving that staffer’s job, Trump, Vance, and the team will end up putting an entire class of point-and-sputter journalists out of theirs
No one will pay for digging up mean tweets if there’s no payoff at the end

THAT TACTIC ONLY WORKS IF YOU LISTEN TO THEM.
The old lib media tactic to search/destroy an individual must no longer work. We don’t give care what they think. And we shouldn’t, ever again. Cry more, libs. https://t.co/PjBfcT4MM1
