I WOULDN’T BE SURPRISED, BUT DICTATORSHIPS ARE OFTEN ABLE TO STUMBLE ALONG WELL PAST THE POINT WHERE THEY OUGHT TO COLLAPSE: Putin’s regime may be closer to a Soviet collapse than we think.

PROFESSOR CARRINGTON, CALL YOUR OFFICE: The sun may spit out giant solar flares more often than we thought: A survey of more than 56,000 sun-like stars reveals that “superflares” that could play havoc with electronics on Earth may happen every 100 to 200 years and the last big one to hit us was in 1859.
“BLUEGOISIE.” Heh.
The Bluegeoisie can never come back to the center.
Everyone is now fully aware of how contemptuous, how bereft of common sense, how dishonest and incompetent they are. It won't work.
They can never build "their own Joe Rogan." The notion is ridiculous–not just because it…

Strange new respect, or just political brown-nosing? Is there any difference between the two?
For the past two-plus years, ever since he raised the potential purchase of Twitter, the Left has demonized Elon Musk nearly non-stop. That hit a fever pitch almost two years ago to the day when Musk began to release the Twitter Files and exposed government censorship on social media and Big Tech platforms, and only increased when Musk began supporting Donald Trump. The Left has painted him as All That Is Wrong in Politics and Culture for two solid years.
How has that worked out for them? Badly enough that they’re now trying to kiss and make up, Politico reports today. And where that kiss is aimed, you can probably guess.
Heh.

YES:
Now is the time for a blitz through the institutions. The Left is exhausted. BLM is shattered. Trans is imploding. Trump has a mandate to abolish DEI, defund left-wing racialism, and restore public authority over the public institutions. The counterrevolution starts now.

DON SURBER: Why I want Dems to rely on Mainstream Media.
SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER:
Help me understand how there is NO money left for us in #WNC when you sent:
– $50 billion yesterday to Ukraine
– $1 billion to Africa

Square that circle for me.

PERSONALLY, I’D ABOLISH THE FBI. WE DON’T NEED A DOMESTIC SECRET POLICE.
So the FBI will raid Trump’s house and indict him twice
But a report on the FBI’s involvement in J6 was delayed until after the election so that it “didn’t cause any election interference”?
This is why Kash Patel is needed for a deep clean of the corrupt FBI https://t.co/3RdnV5bRQ1

NOBODY'S presidency aged worse than Obama's. His signature achievement was called the Affordable Care Act and prices have gotten so high since it passed that his own party is now on board with shooting healthcare CEO'S. What a disaster.

Plus:
HMM: Governors push back on federal proposal to move National Guard units. “In a notable move of unity, governors of all 55 states and territories have joined together to urge Congress to reject Legislative Proposal 480, which would allow specified Air National Guard units to be reassigned to the U.S. Space Force without legally required approval from governors.” I’m really not clear on what this is about.
