…The only silver lining is the possibility that the court system can now redeem itself and lay down new, important case law to prevent future lawfare abuses of this kind. https://t.co/0VZGzmZH8b

ROGER SIMON: Too Bad Javier Milei Isn’t Running for New York Mayor.
The more we learn about Zohran Mamdani, the more despicable (and sick) he is revealed to be. Perhaps we need a new hyphenated category for him—Islamist/sociopath. Recently, it was the “aunt” who was so terrified to wear her hijab immediately after 9/11 (never mind the thousands killed, it was the “aunt” that was important), and then turned out, when it was discovered the candidate’s only real aunt was a highly secular, hijab-less woman, who lived in Tanzania, he really meant his nameless “cousin,” who had conveniently passed away several years go.
Now, via the NY Post, “Zohran Mamdani made vile, conspiracy-tinged statement tying NYPD to IDF, resurfaced video shows”. That would be hilarious if it weren’t so far into Jew hatred (forget the relatively passive “antisemitism”) that it crosses the border into outright insanity.
On a personal note, I also discovered online that the rabbi of Central Synagogue, where I was bar mitzvahed what feels like a thousand years ago, is a supporter of Mamdani. If you want to understand how the Holocaust happened, that’s it in a nutshell.

PLAN ACCORDINGLY: The Universe ‘Will End in a Big Crunch,’ Physicists Warns. “The universe is nearing the halfway point of what may be a 33-billion-year lifespan, according to new calculations by a Cornell physicist using updated dark energy data. The findings suggest that the cosmos will continue expanding for roughly another 11 billion years before reversing course, contracting back into a single point in a dramatic ‘big crunch.'”

HMM: Did China Down Two U.S. Navy Aircraft in South China Sea?
Fortunately, all five U.S. crew aboard the two downed aircraft were rescued. While the USS Nimitz is our oldest carrier, commissioned 50 years ago and on its last deployment before decommissioning next year, experts say this is unlikely to be related to the two crashes.
Upon hearing of this rare occurrence many informed observers, and many uninformed ones, worried that the naval aircraft had been attacked with some sort of electronic warfare (EW) or Directed Energy Warfare (DEW) laser, or cyber weapon, causing them to fail and crash.
DEW, EW or cyber warfare, could all induce these crashes by disrupting flight systems subtly, including aircraft GPS, or frying electronics, especially in a contested area like the South China Sea where advanced Chinese surveillance ships and EW aircraft operate routinely.
China likely also has the capabilities to down aircraft, either through sabotage or flaws in our avionics that they have discovered through espionage.
All are part of China’s emphasis on ‘grey zone’ warfare.

THE FINAL DAYS OF MSNBC: Scott Jennings Lives Rent-Free in Lawrence O’Donnell’s Head As MSNBC Host Erupts on Air.
“And now CNN eagerly pays a Trump supporter to lie on CNN every day and night for Donald Trump,” O’Donnell said. “CNN did this during the first Trump presidential campaign and presidency. CNN regularly paid Trump supporters to lie about Trump on CNN.”
“But then CNN got a new head. The head of CNN for the last three years, hired by the Trump-supporting owner and operator of CNN, is an Englishman who thinks paying Scott Jennings to lie about Donald Trump* is money very well spent,” O’Donnell added. “Scott Jennings, who used to be an aide to Senator Mitch McConnell, was not always a rabid, lying Trump supporter.”
“When he first started appearing on television, he was capable of criticizing some of the more extreme Trump positions. But Scott Jennings figured out where the money is, and how he could get his own podcast, and decided to become the J.D. Vance of CNN,” O’Donnell continued. “Here’s how bad that television is that they make over there. The show that Scott Jennings frequents the most is on opposite this program. And that show, on a good night, gets half – half — of the audience of this show.”
“This program usually has an audience triple the size of the terrible, terrible television that Scott Jennings is delivering on the absurdly degraded version of CNN presided over by the man who thinks lying for Donald Trump on TV is an honorable pursuit and should be paid for by CNN,” O’Donnell concluded.
Hoo boy. There’s a lot to unpack there, huh?

CLOWN NOSE ON? Stewart Gushes Over Mamdani In Pre-Election Puff Segment.
Late night comedy’s all-out effort to drag Zohran Mamdani across the finish line in New York City’s upcoming mayoral election continued on Monday on Comedy Central with its most direct bit of campaigning. The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart welcomed Mamdani to tell him how much “I love hearing” about his campaign and to claim that he has been surprised establishment Democrats have not fallen in line behind him.
Stewart insisted that he is not “blowing smoke,” but he clearly was, “And what I love hearing about this is, one of the things that has been so frustrating in our politics is so much of it has been defined over these last ten years as the negative case against someone, and finally—and I think this is not blowing smoke — I think you’ve made an affirmative case for people. I think the enthusiasm that they have for you is because you have made an affirmative case that’s not about protecting something that is going to be lost or a bad man that’s over there.”
How much smoke was Stewart blowing? This much:
Comparing a socialist politician to Jackie Robinson is a profound insult to history and courage. Robinson faced down real hate to prove a man should be judged on merit. The modern left elevates politicians who demand people be judged by their group. This isn't progress, it's…

Did Jonathan Chait get a lobotomy?
I don’t think so, and whatever else he is, stupid is not an attribute I associated with him. So when I saw this tweet I about burst out laughing.
Chait is tweeting about Karine Jean-Pierre’s interview with The New Yorker, in which she demonstrates—once again—that anybody who suggested that she is a midwit has been far too generous. She cannot answer the most basic questions without generating confusion–so much so that the woman who was hired to communicate for the President of the United States spent almost all her time trying to clear up misconceptions that she herself created.
Chait knows the answer, but believes he can’t say it, lest he be crucified by his fellow staffers at the Atlantic (see also: Williamson, Kevin) and by his fellow leftists on social media. We’ll know if his party wants to return from the wilderness when he’s able to verbalize why KJP was in the White House, and why Biden’s self-described “Politburo” believed they couldn’t remove her. (See also: Harris, Kamala.)
SAD TO SAY, BUT WE NEED THE HELP: Japan and U.S. Expected to Sign Shipbuilding Pact Amid China Challenge. “Japan’s public broadcaster NHK said the memorandum is expected to state that ‘it is necessary to reduce dependence on a specific country with a view to securing maritime transport in case of a contingency.’ The document is also expected to say that Japan and the US will set up a working group to strengthen cooperation, and that Japanese and US companies will invest in shipbuilding yards in both countries to boost competitiveness and improve efficiency.”
“Specific country,” heh.
