DEMOCRATS IN A NUTSHELL:

Mamdani’s mother is a world-famous, Academy Award-nominated Bollywood director worth tens of millions of dollars. His father is a chaired professor at Columbia.

He is, in effect, a perpetual theatre kid who’s pretending to be “Third World.” It’s all so, so performative + stupid. https://t.co/dO14GmFMDI

He says he “grew up in the third world” but he was living in the United States attending private school since he was 7 years old—that’s not “code switching,” that’s lying. He is a spoiled, privileged young man playing today’s most popular parlor game “Look how oppressed I am.” https://t.co/TBLGNcdT16

ICYMI:

Remember when it was a big story that a homicidal maniac connected to international orgs and appointed by two Dem governors to state boards k*lled two Minnesota lawmakers and wrote he believed Tim Walz wanted him to take out Amy Klobuchar?

Boy, that story vanished in a hurry. https://t.co/c4Ea2S463B

OPEN THREAD: Ring out the weekend.

THE NEW SPACE RACE: Blue Origin launches third New Shepard mission within three months.

This would have been impressive in 2010.

FOLLOW THE SCIENCE: Scientists Uncover New Concerns About Billion-Dollar Heart Drug: An investigation has uncovered evidence of significant misreporting, raising new concerns about the approval and long-term use of ticagrelor over the past decade.

SELF DEFENSE: Amateurs try until they get it right. Professionals try until they can’t get it wrong.

WELL, THE WHOLE ARGUMENT IS THAT FLUORIDE DOES MORE HARM THAN GOOD, RIGHT? RFK Jr. says there may be ‘more cavities’ under fluoride bans: ‘It’s a balance.’

And let me just point out that dentists were morons to push so hard for water fluoridation, when filling cavities was their core business.

I’M SORRY, DAVE, I CAN’T FIX THAT: Hey Siri, fix my spacecraft! A virtual assistant could help astronauts handle unexpected space mission issues.

WELL, THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY, YOU KNOW: AI tool detects 9 types of dementia from a single brain scan.

THE NEW SPACE RACE: SpaceX launches second mission in 2 days from same pad, breaks own record: The private company then launches Falcon 9 from California 13 hours later.

MASSIVE RESISTANCE: Civil rights complaint filed against Cornell includes bombshell whistleblower emails.

IT’S TIME: Campus conservatives are cool again, and the left is lashing out.

PROMISES, PROMISES: In an about-face, Germany plans to build Europe’s biggest military.

The European buildup, merely by existing, creates an "army in being" that will stress the Putin government who will have to pay an insurance premium where there was none before.https://t.co/EJi4dOIgeG

ANSWERING THE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS: Dolphins Got Giant Testicles. We Got a Chin. Only One Makes Sense.

They both make sense when you realize it’s all about sex. Dolphins mate a lot, and need a lot of sperm. Human chicks dig a manly chin, and are. more likely to mate with men who have them.

You can put my Nobel in the mail.

THE GERMANS: ALWAYS WRONG, NEVER IN DOUBT.

Objectively speaking every single major policy/collective choice by Germany in my adult life has been astonishingly stupid:
– Giving their manufacturing technology to China
– Destroying Eurozone growth
– The Energiewende
– Letting in millions of Middle Eastern migrants
– Allowing… https://t.co/bMmUwMXo5n

SHOOTING DOWN ANOTHER STUPID LEFTIST IDEA:

Grocery store profit margins are *tiny*—usually 1-2 percent. (Liquor stores, by contrast, have margins around 20-30%.) It would be very hard for a shop run by the state—which isn't known for efficiency—to keep prices low while maintaining quality & selection. Defeats the purpose.

— Billy Binion (@billybinion) June 27, 2025

Of course, the big appeal of government grocery stores is that you can get bribes from developers for locating them nearby, and you can punish political enemies by moving them farther away. Plus the day-to-day skimming, no-show jobs, etc. Naturally leftists want this. And of course there’s their traditional desire to control people’s access to food in general.
