MEAN GIRL POLITICS:

I have no problem with people whose opinions differ from mine. I'm not even sure this woman's opinion IS that far from mine…
But the adolescent behavior, the taunting & substitution of broad meaningless invective and mean-girl shit for honest discourse? Made me despise them.

THE NEW SPACE RACE: Is Orion’s heat shield really safe? New NASA chief conducts final review on eve of flight.

Last week I linked to this Robert Zimmerman piece: Please Take the Crew Off of Artemis II.

But now there’s this from Eric Berger:

After taking the job in Washington, DC, Isaacman asked the engineers who investigated the heat shield issue for NASA, as well as the chair of the independent review team and senior human spaceflight officials, to meet with a handful of outside experts. These included former NASA astronauts Charles Camarda and Danny Olivas, both of whom have expertise in heat shields and had expressed concerns about the agency’s decision-making.

For the sake of transparency, Isaacman also invited two reporters to sit in on the meeting, me and Micah Maidenberg of The Wall Street Journal. We were allowed to report on the discussions without directly quoting participants for the sake of a full and open discussion.

Convened in a ninth-floor conference room at NASA Headquarters known as the Program Review Center, the meeting lasted for more than three hours. Isaacman attended much of it, though he stepped out from time to time to handle an ongoing crisis involving an unwell astronaut on orbit. He was flanked by the agency’s associate administrator, Amit Kshatriya; the agency’s chief of staff, Jackie Jester; and Lori Glaze, the acting associate administrator for NASA’s Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate. The heat shield experts joined virtually from Houston, along with Orion Program Manager Howard Hu.

Isaacman made it clear at the outset that, after reviewing the data and discussing the matter with NASA engineers, he accepted the agency’s decision to fly Artemis II as planned. The team had his full confidence, and he hoped that by making the same experts available to Camarda and Olivas, it would ease some of their concerns.

Much more at the link.

Isaacman’s transparency — as opposed to those completely redacted documents NASA released under previous management — inspires more confidence in the mission.

YOU DON’T SAY: Frey says ‘everybody could have done more to prevent fraud’ in Minnesota.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) commented on a recent fraud scandal in his state that has drawn national attention, saying, “You do not hold an entire community, any community, accountable for the actions of individuals.”

“Obviously, everybody could have done more to prevent fraud. And I think that’s a fair point to make. You do more to prevent fraud. And you look what he’s doing right now. He’s setting up a whole bunch of infrastructure to do that. And by the way, look, the fraud’s real. We’ve all got to acknowledge it,” Frey told NBC News’s Kristen Welker on “Meet the Press,” referencing Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D).

The question is why nobody did something “everybody could have done,” and I’ll just repeat that somebody must have been getting their beaks wet to ignore so much fraud.

THE LEFT TOOK NEUROTIC PEOPLE WHO NEEDED A LITTLE HELP AND TURNED THEM INTO SHOCK TROOPS:

“The responsible thing for every Democrat in politics and in the media to do today, right now, is to tell their audiences that it is never okay to assault a cop, it is never okay to impede a federal investigation, and they need to knock it off.” https://t.co/4r7oL2tcAr

— David Marcus (@BlueBoxDave) January 11, 2026

From the replies: “Sadly, @BlueBoxDave they are indirectly recruited and trained. The day Good was shot, a 37 yo woman I know well said, ‘I hope you feel differently when that happens to me.’ She has now joined activist groups and handed her mother an envelope to be opened in the event of death.”

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: It’s Never a Stretch to Believe That a Dem Wants to Kill a Cop. “Since January 2009, the blame for most violence against law enforcement in the United States can be laid at the feet of His High Holiness the Lightbringer Barack Obama. While it’s true that the Democrats frequently had a fraught relationship with the law and those who enforce it before then, Obama’s presidency retrofitted the party’s DNA with hatred of all cops.”

THAT DOESN’T SEEM DESPERATE AT ALL:

Right now islamic regime media is posting videos from Soleimani's funeral procession 6 years ago and presenting them as a rally today.

They're also showing other old footage with trees in full bloom despite it being winter and January.

Propaganda efforts 1/10.

BILL SHIPLEY: Minneapolis Is Not Even A Close Call — A Lawsplainer On Officer-Involved Shootings.

The Image above proves the ICE Officer was justified in his decision to use deadly force. He had no obligation to step out of the way that would benefit her or subject him to prosecution. He had no obligation to allow her to drive away from an attempt to detain her after the Officer at the door of her car ordered her to stop and exit the vehicle.

ICE has two sets of law enforcement personnel — Special Agents who are criminal investigators, and deportation officers who process civil deportation cases. Special Agents are covered by GS-1811 series position with a general description of “criminal investigator.” They are armed and possess police powers to investigate and make arrests for any crime committed in their presence, as well as for the enforcement of all crimes under Title 8 of the United States Code — “Aliens and Nationality.” Within their authority are crimes under Title 18 such as “conspiracy” and “obstruction” that intefere with their enforcement of the provisions of Title 8.

But the claim floating around social media that ICE officers have no jurisdiction over U.S. citizens is simply wrong. They are law enforcement officers with the authority to detain citizens briefly as part of their investigatory powers, and to arrest citizens who conspire to obstruct and/or do actually obstruct their lawful operations.

They wrote this whole article about the hot new business that is beef tallow and then it turned out to be on 1.1% of what they thought it was!”
