DEMOCRATS ARE HAPPY FOR THEIR CLIENTS TO BE ARMED: Philadelphia’s Soros DA Larry Krasner Sues GLOCK While Letting Gang Members Run Wild.
I’M NOT AS CONFIDENT AS I’D LIKE TO BE: NASA officials sidestepped questions on Artemis II risks—there’s a reason why.
SO YOU’RE SAYING THERE’S NO POINT IN QUITTING? Early adult drinking linked to middle-age cognitive decline—even after extended abstinence.
SUCH ERRORS DO NOT HAPPEN ORGANICALLY:
In retrospect the Global World was excessively dependent on chokepoints controlled by terror groups and theocracies for decades. These narrow points, like mountain passes, could be crossed only by their leave. They were passable only at their pleasure.
Rather than mitigate…

MASSIVE RESISTANCE: In undercover videos, Arizona State U. admins admit DEI continues despite ban.
AARON HANSCOM: How Roger L. Simon’s New Thriller ‘EMET’ Restored My Faith in Fiction.
I read the book and blurbed it. (You can see my blurb here.) Highly recommended.
“RULE OF LAW:” Exclusive: Mueller probe cut corners, broke rules to ‘get Trump,’ whistleblower claims. “An FBI agent assigned to then-special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign has made bombshell allegations charging that misconduct, political bias, and “overzealous thoughts” permeated the team — to the point of festooning the walls of their office with anti-Trump cartoons and drinking alcohol while on the job. A ‘Let’s get him’ attitude colored the two-year investigation into false claims that Trump and his advisers colluded with Russia to win the 2016 presidential election, the unidentified agent said.”
DON SURBER: The Trump Dividend: Peace through strength also is prosperity through strength. “We don’t need the oil. Europe, Red China, South Korea and Japan do.”
UPDATE:
What you are actually seeing is leverage being gained by the US for negotiations with China and their rare earth monopoly.
China gets 50% of its oil and 30% LNG from mid-east.

BECAUSE “ACTIVISTS” ARE GARBAGE: Why won’t US activists speak up for the tortured Iran women’s soccer team?
COMMON SENSE SPARKS “FIRESTORMS” NOW. Of course a “firestorm” is just some lefties complaining.
Japanese politician Kimi Onoda:
“Foreigners should stop whining about discrimination. Discrimination would not exist if people simply followed our laws and local customs.
When you break the rules, trust collapses.”
Do you agree with her?

WHAT LAWFARE LOOKS LIKE:
They did not intimidate these DOGE guys. They were cool, calm and collected. The condescension and patronizing remarks fell flat. Their short, concise, truthful, and honest responses from DOGE made the interrogators scramble and they ended up looking foolish and desperate. The…

Make it costly, and there will be less of it. But they’re fighting out of their class.
MOST DO-GOODER NONPROFITS SEEM TO BE MONEY LAUNDRIES:
City of Los Angeles bought a Ramada Inn for $10.2 million to house homeless
Since then, they started sending money to a NGO to takeover the project. Its now sat vacant for 4 years and $20 MILLION has been spent, meant to house only 32 people

#JOURNALISM: Al Jazeera Is Now More Positive on US-Israeli Strategy Than US Media.
To be fair, they actually understand it.
DATA REPUBLICAN: The Blob Eats Its Own: War on the Rocks and the Capture of Realist Journalism. What the doxxing of Cynical Publius reveals about how the national security establishment protects itself. “That is the tell. Not the funding, not the network, not the deletion of “realist lens” from the About page — though all of it is documented. The tell is this: the publication that was supposed to be the honest after-action review became the institution that shuts it down. The correction mechanism became the immune system. When someone tried to do the work the publication was founded to do, the publication exposed him to the people he was criticizing and let them take it from there.”
Plus: “The people tasked with explaining why America keeps losing are the same people defending the institutions that produced the losses.”
OPEN THREAD: Monday, Monday.

SECOND-WORST GERMAN CHANCELLOR IN A CENTURY:
