AFFLUENT WHITE FEMALE LIBERALS ARE AWFL: Woman whose MAGA hat meltdown, subway wipeout went viral is an ‘extremely liberal’ luxury-brand specialist. “Testanero has gone off the deep end when it comes to politics, a former colleague claimed. ‘She and I stopped being friends a while ago, as she became extremely liberal and very agitated,’ the one-time coworker told The Post.”
Mentally disturbed women who think they can do anything with impunity are a problem.

UP IN SMOKE: Instead of Improving Movies, Variety Wants to Allow Pot and Texting in Theaters.
Can you imagine spending $65 for tickets, popcorn, and soda to suffer through three hours in a room filled with the stench of something called the skunk weed (for good reason) and idiots texting? Plus, Variety thinks movie theaters should become pot dispensaries.
“Imagine how much better Barbie or Deadpool & Wolverine would be if you could see it” while smoking a joint, asks Variety rhetorically. “Selling weed could bring fresh revenue and new customers to theaters.”
What?
Both of those movies were monster hits, the top grossers of their respective years. Who in their right mind believes allowing pot smoking and texting in the theater would have improved their box office?
Granted, Variety’s idea is to have exclusive screenings for potheads and texters. Nevertheless, the entire theater will still stink of that crap.
Here’s Variety lobbying for texting: “Although cinephiles might object, if movie theaters want to attract younger audiences who refuse to give up their devices during the two-hour running time of most films, they might need to stop banning phones.”
Meanwhile, the New York Post suggests booze and/or pickleball will do the trick: Movie theaters are trying everything to bring audiences back — from pickleball to cocktail bars.
One owner of a smaller Midwest chain isn’t waiting around for the crowds to magically reappear.
“The pandemic made us realize that we need to diversify,” says Bob Bagby, CEO of family-owned B&B Theaters. “We can’t just depend on studios to provide us with what we need to drive our business.”
That means pickleball games and cocktails in the lobby, even bowling — all designed to get people to see the theaters as more than just a place to screen the latest flicks.
People now refer to seeing movies on the big screen as essentially annual events. “Yeah, I saw Oppenheimer that year.” “I watched Top Gun: Maverick in the theater.” “I saw the big Spider-Man multiverse movie Christmastime 2021.” It’s hard to believe that people once went to the movies weekly — and that Hollywood created watchable product to fill that demand instead of hectoring its audiences to have politically correct opinions and utter the latest bespoke pronouns.

WATCH: Scott Jennings Humiliates Another CNN Talking Head.
On Friday evening, Lulu Garcia-Navarro made the laughable attempt to convince viewers that this situation was somehow worse than Secretary Lloyd Austin’s catastrophic failures—such as the one that left 13 American service members dead, or the time he went AWOL while his deputy lounged on vacation, cocktail in hand. With a straight face, she actually suggested that if this had happened under the Biden administration, someone would have been held accountable.
“If this was a Democrat or a democratic administration who had foolishly, unconscionably created a group chat to have discussion about a military operation that was top secret, I think, Scott, you would have been the first person to call for those people’s resignation,” Garcia-Navarro argued.
She then insisted that accountability should not be a partisan issue. “Accountability is actually something that normally happens in a well-functioning administration,” she said. “This isn’t, you know, cowboys and Indians and calling for scalps. This is actually what most people would think was, if someone has behaved in a way that puts American lives at risk, they should be held accountable for it.”
“You don’t have to make up hypotheticals, Lulu, about if this happened in a democratic administration,” Jennings countered. “Let me take you back in time. In a Democratic administration, the secretary of defense oversaw a disastrous military operation in which 13 servicemen died in Afghanistan. Then to try to make up for it, they vaporized like seven children in a drone strike. Then later, the secretary of defense went AWOL and didn’t even tell the commander-in-chief.”
Garcia-Navarro quickly interrupted. “This is a completely different thing,” she insisted.
Now, let’s get real for a moment. She’s right; they are different situations. What happened under Lloyd Austin’s watch was so much worse. The incompetence of the Biden administration not only resulted in the deaths of 13 U.S. servicemembers, but also the fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban, who now had access to billions of dollars of U.S. military equipment that was left behind by Joe Biden.

BENJAMIN KERSTEIN: Rise of the ‘anti-Nazi’ Nazis.
The progressive left believes that it owns anti-Nazism. Literally owns it. Anti-Nazism is progressivism’s personal property, and no one else has any right to it. As such, progressivism can wield anti-Nazism as a weapon against anyone and anything it finds distasteful with total impunity.
Today, with campus antisemites stating at every possible opportunity that their goal is a second genocide of the Jews and engaging in the racist hate crimes necessary to prove it, we are faced with an irony that is world-historical in scope: Progressives use anti-Nazism to defend people who are very much like Nazis. Progressives then go even further and claim that these people are victims of Nazism.
* * * * * * * *
The reason is that, whatever their pretensions otherwise, progressives do not own anti-Nazism. In fact, they have no claim to anti-Nazism whatsoever. Genuine anti-Nazism can only lie with those who oppose genocidal antisemitism, because if Nazism is not genocidally antisemitic, then it is not Nazism. You cannot be anti-Nazi while defending genocidal antisemites. It is impossible.
Moreover, by claiming that antisemites are somehow victims of Nazism, progressives are engaging in an act of monstrous blasphemy. They are defaming the millions of Jews who died at antisemitism’s hands and appropriating the generational trauma of those who survived.
Historically, this is par for the course. Antisemites have always been happy to appropriate whatever they wish from the Jews and then spit in our faces. But it is no less disgraceful for its great age.
This is offensive enough, but progressives dig the hole even deeper: They claim that the Jews are Nazis. This blood libel is a staple of progressive rhetoric and wildly popular among the campus antisemites. In many ways, it has become part of “legitimate” discourse in academia. Nonetheless, it is difficult to fully convey the depth of the sadism and cruelty inherent in it.

LAS VEGAS JUDGE DECLINES TO RELEASE SUSPECT IN TESLA ‘DOMESTIC TERRORISM’ ATTACK:
A federal magistrate judge declined Friday to immediately release the man accused of setting fires at a Tesla collision center, citing her concerns of returning him to the community without his mother’s supervision.
Las Vegas Metro police arrested Paul Kim, 36, on Wednesday night on charges including arson and possessing an explosive device, the 8 News Now Investigators first reported. U.S. Marshals later took Kim into custody on federal charges.
The fires, which involved Molotov cocktails, happened Tuesday, March 18, around 2:45 a.m. at a Tesla center located at 6260 West Badura Avenue near Jones Boulevard and Warm Springs Road.
License plate readers, cameras, social media tools, DNA and other technology directly led to Kim, LVMPD Sheriff Kevin McMahill said Thursday.
During a detention hearing Friday before Magistrate Judge Elayna Youchah, prosecutor Jacob Operskalski called Kim a “flight risk” and said the Department of Justice considered his alleged actions “domestic terrorism.”
Operskalski noted there was no federal charge for domestic terrorism and highlighted the determination could lead to enhancements during sentencing.
Why aren’t there federal charges for domestic terrorism? Last Wednesday, ABC reported: Attorney general calls Tesla arson attacks ‘nothing short of domestic terrorism.’

MAKE APPLE GREAT AGAIN: Siri, explain how you became Apple’s most embarrassing failure.
According to Bloomberg, Apple executives told staff that the delays were “embarrassing” and “ugly”, and said the company had promoted the Siri revamp before it was ready.
Robby Walker, a senior director at Apple, pointed the finger at the company’s marketing team for seeking to promote the features ahead of time. A week later, Giannandrea was reportedly sidelined, with Mike Rockwell, the head of the Vision Pro headset, put in charge of Siri.
The uncharacteristic own-goal led to a wave of criticism. John Gruber, a long-time Apple follower, said that “something is rotten” at the company, while Ming-Chi Kuo, a well-connected analyst, said Cook should apologise.
Apple is now facing a false advertising lawsuit from customers who said they bought new iPhones on the premise that they would receive features such as the new Siri. Apple has not yet responded to the lawsuit.
Mr Chatterjee, of Forrester, says: “There is cause for concern but not for panic.”
He says the company has plenty of loyal customers, but that the company’s recent challenges have dimmed hopes of an upgrade “super cycle” to boost sales.
The problems getting Siri to work might be understandable in isolation, but they come amid a series of Apple initiatives that have missed the mark.
The company invested billions of pounds into an electric car project that it eventually scrapped a year ago.
Its Vision Pro headset – the company’s biggest new idea since the iPhone – has disappointed, with plans for an upgraded model reportedly in flux.
But ChatGPT 4o can now make Ghibli cartoons at the drop of a text prompt – isn’t that enough of a bleeding edge 21st century high-tech breakthrough for one week?!
