HE’S A CROOK WHO THOUGHT HE WAS UNTOUCHABLE: Jonathan Turley: James Comey is no pristine model of ethics, and now he’s staring down karma.

DON SURBER: Trump games Schumer: Democrats have made themselves irrelevant.

Democrats have no leverage. None. They turned a large minority into a worthless piece of snit, throwing hissy fits hither and yon on TV while the nation yawns. They can huff and they can puff but they cannot blow the White House down because it is made of Trump, not balsa wood.

Schumer thought he was so clever by opposing each and every request from President Trump, but time proved that foolish because Trump knows how to herd cats and got Republicans to stick together, with a few kittens straying here and there.

Trump now knows he does not need Schumer any more than he needs an ear infection.

Well, said.

ARE THERE PEOPLE IN IT WHO WONDER IF THEY’RE LIVING IN A SIMULATION? The largest-ever simulation of the universe has just been released.

IT CERTAINLY IS: Public Health Policy As Public Choice Failure. “Examining three key policy areas—vaccine rollout, mask mandates, and ventilation standards—the Article demonstrates how misaligned political incentives led officials to prioritize short-term appeasement of a pandemic-weary public over science-based strategies that would maximize long-term welfare. In each domain, political actors faced strong incentives to downplay risks, overpromise solutions, and delay difficult decisions, resulting in a pandemic response that was often too little, too late, and too beholden to partisan interests. The Article concludes that reckoning honestly with these failures is a crucial first step toward reforming our public health institutions and ensure a more effective response to the next crisis. It offers recommendations for rebuilding public trust, depoliticizing public health communication, and institutionalizing science-based policymaking. More broadly, the Article underscores the urgent need to realign political incentives with the public interest in the prevention of and response to public health emergencies.”
