LEFTISTS MARCHED IN SUPPORT OF THIS YESTERDAY IN NEW YORK:

The 2026 calendar. Maduro in January. El Mencio in February. Khamenei in March announces the new American way of war. An unnoticed development in the history of conflict has taken place. For the first time in memory it is the kingpins, not the henchmen, who are dying first in…

SO FAR 2026 IS GOING OKAY: Bloodbath Imminent: CNN’s Overpaid Hacks on Alert as Paramount Set To Acquire Failing Network’s Parent Company.

ROGER SIMON: Hope Was ALWAYS on the way. “Many had come to doubt President Trump’s assurance weeks ago to the brave Iranian freedom fighters that “help is on the way.” I admit I had moments I waffled over that time, though my wife, a stalwart, disabused me of them. But Operation Epic Fury—called Roaring Lion by the Israelis and now roaring—appears to have been months in the most meticulous planning.”

THE NEW SPACE RACE: NASA’s Artemis 3 astronauts won’t land on the moon after all. ‘This is just not the right pathway forward.’

It never was. The new approach is better, but not good enough. Cancel it and just hire SpaceX to get us there.
