SO TRUE: The white women turning to ‘Dark Woke’— They turn private despair into public rage.

I think this comment from the article sums it up best: “Why are white liberal women especially eager for battle?” Because most of them have enjoyed the female privilege of being able to be aggressive, insulting and even violent towards men with no consequences. They think they can transfer this immunity into this arena and – as the deceased woman found out – it doesn’t work there. In videos of violent female protesters getting taken down by police their facial expression often goes from rage to complete shock.

REAL MONEY: Illegal Aliens Cost Texas Hospitals $1 Billion In 2025. “Funny how Libertarian sorts claiming that illegal aliens are a net benefit to the economy always seem to leave a lot of “externalities” out of their calculations: Higher crime rates, more sex trafficking, enabling transnational criminal organizations, more voting fraud, higher government spending and higher taxes to provide government services for illegal aliens, higher prices for citizens for limited housing, depressed wages for citizens, etc.”

KAMALA HARRIS BUYS $8.2 MILLION SEASIDE MANSION AFTER WARNING ‘SEA LEVELS ARE RISING’ DUE TO ‘CLIMATE CRISIS:’

Former vice president Kamala Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff purchased an $8 million mansion in an exclusive oceanside Malibu neighborhood last month. The move came after Harris spent years warning that such communities could be threatened by the “climate crisis.”

A real estate listing for the mansion, reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon, says the luxury pad is “perched in a prime coastal location” with “breathtaking ocean views.” The property sits right near a coastline that—according to climate scenarios endorsed by Harris—is at risk of facing extreme flooding. A climate model issued by the Biden-Harris administration determined that Point Dume State Beach, the beach a short walk from Harris’s new property, would be severely damaged by sea level rise even under the model’s most modest projections. The Trump administration discontinued that model in June 2025.

The purchase, which was first reported by the New York Post, calls into question Harris’s earnestness when discussing the threats posed by what she calls the “climate crisis.”

“Our oceans are warming. Sea levels are rising,” Harris wrote duringher short-lived presidential campaign in 2019. “Extreme weather is destroying our communities. We are poisoning the planet.”

2019 was also the year that AOC claimed, “The world is gonna end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change,” so I hope Kamala and Doug enjoy their mansion while there’s still time…

CIVIL RIGHTS UPDATE: States Now Taking On the Fight Against Anti-Gun Lawfare.

As state legislatures across the country grapple with how to address the criminal misuse of firearms, South Carolina lawmakers have taken a decidedly different path with the introduction of House Bill 4723 — a measure aimed at strengthening legal protections for the lawful manufacture, distribution and sale of firearms and related products.

The proposal, known as the “South Carolina Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA),” reflects a proactive effort to block what supporters describe as “opportunistic lawsuits” that seek to hold honest businesses, like South Carolin-based FN America and Palmetto State Armory, liable for criminal misuse of their products.

More like this, please.

IT DOES A BODY GOOD: Trump signs a law returning whole milk to school lunches.

The action allows schools participating in the National School Lunch Program to serve whole and 2% fat milk along with the skim and low-fat products required since 2012.

“Whether you’re a Democrat or a Republican, whole milk is a great thing,” Trump said at a White House signing ceremony that featured lawmakers, dairy farmers and their children.

I had no idea my kids even knew who Michelle Obama was, until the subject of school lunches came up. She’s still a sore subject.

TRADE WAR: China’s trade surplus surges 20% to a record $1.2 trillion, even with Trump’s tariffs.

China’s trade surplus surged to a record of almost $1.2 trillion in 2025, the government said Wednesday, as exports to other countries made up for slowing shipments to the U.S. under President Donald Trump’s onslaught of higher tariffs.

China’s exports rose 5.5% for the whole of last year to $3.77 trillion, customs data showed, as Chinese automakers and other manufacturers expanded into markets across the globe. Imports flatlined at $2.58 trillion. The 2024 trade surplus was over $992 billion.

In December, China’s exports climbed 6.6% from the year before in dollar terms, better than economists’ estimates and higher than November’s 5.9% year-on-year increase. Imports in December were up 5.7% year-on-year, compared to November’s 1.9%.

It looked odd to me at first that China’s exports surged that much while imports — the country is highly dependent on imported raw materials for its manufacturing — remained flat.

Best guess is that domestic demand continues to slump, while Beijing continues trying to export its domestic troubles to foreign markets.
