MEANWHILE, OVER AT VODKAPUNDIT: The Obamas’ Power, Corruption, and Lies Are Things to Behold. “But we’re here to talk about Barack, because there’s money and then there’s money, and it’s vital to understand how the Obamas got the lucre to ‘buy everybody.’ Because let me tell you this much before we get into the filthy details: It was not from a black-owned business Michelle insists she buys from.”

TINSELTOWN BLUES: California losing over $1B to rival states for film, TV production — despite Newsom tax incentives.
California saw 20% fewer movie and TV projects filming in the state compared to a year ago, while spending on big and small screen productions also fell 22%, according to a new data analysis by The Hollywood Reporter.
The slump came even after Democrat Newsom signed legislation doubling California’s film and TV tax credit program from $330 million to $750 million annually, in an effort to keep such projects local.
“Although our overall numbers remain low, there are dozens of incentivized projects that have yet to begin filming,” FilmLA Vice President Philip Sokoloski told The Hollywood Reporter, urging patience as the expanded incentives begin to take effect.
Los Angeles alone logged just 19,694 filming days last year — a 16.1% drop from 2024 — underscoring how sharply production activity has slowed even in Hollywood’s backyard.
Production is down across the board, but bigger tax incentives aside, California is a lousy place to conduct any kind of business.
Above-board business, that is.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: Happy One-Year Anniversary, Trump 47. “The fact that Trump got through the legal hell that Joe Biden’s DOJ goon squad subjected him to for four years with any positivity in him is miraculous. If ever anyone deserved to sour on the United States of America, it’s Donald Trump. Instead of letting it all get to him, he fought through the harassment so that he could try and put things right again in this country.”

CIVIL RIGHTS UPDATE: Hawaii Uses State’s Royal History to Justify Ban on Carrying Guns in Most of the State.
“Hawai‘i’s unique history—including its long pre-statehood existence as an independent kingdom—means that its residents never developed a practice of bringing guns into shops, convenience stores, and the like,” state Attorney General Anne Lopez wrote in a brief filed with the Supreme Court in December.
Alan Beck, a San Diego-based attorney who is representing the plaintiffs, says bringing the history of the Hawaiian Kingdom into the argument is invalid.
“What they’re really arguing is that the rights of my clients, who are U.S. citizens, should be dictated by the laws of a monarchy,” he said. “That’s not a position that’s really tenable.”
“No kings,” they told me.

The US and China have significantly decoupled since early 2020. The # of flights between the two countries is down roughly 70%. Two long-term residents I spoke with said the # of American expats is down 50-75% from the peak. The # of Americans studying in China is down ≈90%.

ANALYSIS: TRUE. Dems Hate ‘America First’ Because They Have Nothing to Offer Law-Abiding Americans. “It is imperative that we bring up projection in almost every conversation about the Democrats, because it’s the lifeblood of 21st century lefties. The majority of what they accuse us of is something that they embody (fascism) or are actively engaged in (shutting down free speech). TDS sufferers who were once Republican love to assert that ‘both sides do it,’ but that’s a truckload of hooey.”
