DAVID STROM: They Always Threaten Violence. “I assume that liberals hear these statements differently than I do, but I also assume that it is because they are conditioned to believe that anybody they don’t like is a violent white supremacist bent on colonialist genocide.”

LIKE MANY SOCIAL PROBLEMS, THERE IS A SIMPLE SOLUTION THAT WORKS, AND A COMPLEX SOLUTION THAT DOESN’T BUT IS PREFERRED FOR IDEOLOGICAL REASONS: The Evidence That High Tech Systems Stop School Shootings Just Isn’t There.
SHOT:
WOW. Read this carefully.
Over 40 daycare centers reportedly opened in Columbus, Ohio on the same day, all linked to the same inactive shell entity — and together pulled in $14 MILLION in taxpayer-funded subsidies in a single year.
Same paperwork.
Same structure.
Same funding… pic.twitter.com/1PAmycyVG7— Tony Lane 🇺🇸 (@TonyLaneNV) December 31, 2025
CHASER:
This is 100% not acceptable and any politician who voices this sort of attitude needs to go. https://t.co/fxhUYE1WnK

WHAT’S THE POINT OF SNAP IF YOU CAN ONLY USE IT FOR REAL FOOD? SNAP food restrictions go live in five states Thursday.
INDEED:
No wonder Western North Carolina couldn't get trailers for housing last year, I mean fake Somali children had to go to fake daycare while APPALACHIAN AMERICANS LIVED IN TENTS AND BEGGED FOR HELP.

WHY IS HIGHER EDUCATION SUCH A CESSPIT OF HATE AND BIGOTRY? Police investigating Michigan State University Chabad attacks.
#JOURNALISM:
This person wrote the Brigette Bardot piece for Vogue ("It's our collective responsibility not to let Bardot's beauty and talent obscure the UGLINESS of her Islamophobia…")

WEREN’T TARIFFS SUPPOSED TO DO THE EXACT OPPOSITE?
Global capital is betting on America, and the numbers are impossible to ignore.
Foreign private investors are buying U.S. assets at a ~$1.65T annual pace, up nearly 40% from last year.
Equity inflows are surging, Treasuries are in demand, and corporate bonds are seeing strong… pic.twitter.com/IjC4WVbCWF

#JOURNALISM:
The mainstream media journalist class is asking who gave “the random YouTuber” @nickshirleyy “a license” to go and investigate the Somali daycare fraud in Minnesota.

They hate the idea that just anyone with an iPhone can do what they do, and usually better.
Somebody should write a book on that.
HAPPY NEW YEAR: Who is Planning for War, and Who is Preparing for the Next POM Cycle? “Fear and shame are great motivators. Fear the power in the Western Pacific that we helped build. Have shame at our lack of leadership and vision at the very highest levels from both political parties as this happened. As a result, this is what we will order our Navy to engage should the fight come west of the international dateline. Get angry. Get motivated. Demand action.”
SPECIAL NEW YEAR’S MORNING OPEN THREAD: How was your night? How are your hangovers?
SCAMS ALL THE WAY DOWN:
It's becoming increasingly undeniable that every left-coded "government program" that woke Christians used empathy to defend and demand we support…
Daycare, healthcare, refugee resettlement, welfare, etc.
Are all just fraudulent ponzi scheme kickbacks for godless Democrats

Check out Catholic Charities and Lutheran Social Services as conduits for taxpayer money spent on allegedly “compassionate” programs that often aren’t.

THE PURPOSE OF A SYSTEM IS WHAT IT DOES:
As Thomas Sowell has pointed out, it’s a mistake to judge a law or program by the stated good intentions of its creators. You have to judge it by the incentives it creates. This program creates vast financial incentives for fraud…so that’s what we get.

PETER THIEL: FLORIDA MAN.
NEW: Peter Thiel is opening an office in Miami for his personal investment firm, Thiel Capital.
Thiel just put out this press release. Why? Because he is trying to show publicly that he is a taxpayer in Florida, not California.

WHEN A GUY NAMED “CATTURD” IS THIS OPTIMISTIC, ATTENTION MUST BE PAID:

Actually, I kinda think he may be right.
WELL, DAVID FRENCH:
I’m an AO OG, but if @DavidAFrench is referencing MAGA’s critique of the MSM’s coverage of the recent rampant fraud in MN and elsewhere, respectfully, he’s just wrong.
I’m a regular reader of both the @nytimes and @StarTribune, and helped prosecute fraud in MN as an AUSA.
