DHIMMITUDE: Tucker Carlson Says He Used to Criticize Islam, but Now He Sees the Light. “Compounding Tucker Carlson’s dishonesty here is the fact that he is also making claims about Islam and dismissing those claims as ‘hysterical,’ and will never allow anyone who believes that there is a problem with Islam, or that the problem is Islam, onto his show to discuss it with him. He is, of course, free to feature anyone he wants, but his is not exactly a platform for open and honest discussion of the relevant issues that will allow for opinions that differ from those that Tucker Carlson holds. That also is his right, but when he makes sweeping claims that are false, as he does here, he does his audience an even greater disservice than usual. What about the Qur’an’s violent teachings? What about Islam’s doctrines of conquest and subjugation? Do they simply not exist now because Tucker Carlson says they’re hysterical?”

UNEXPECTEDLY: Seattle’s Sky-High Minimum Wage for Delivery Drivers Has Been a Disaster.
Gig workers make no more money, but prices went up.
Apps like DoorDash and Uber Eats added a $5 fee for consumers “to help cover the costs of these…regulations.”
Now Seattle residents complain about prices. “I ordered a $12 sandwich…$12 grew to $32!” complains one in my new video. “I just deleted the app.”
“[Work] has become slow because of the new law,” an app driver complains. DoorDash says it got 1.7 million fewer Seattle orders in 2024.
This is what happens when politicians dictate wages.
“Obviously, when you’re increasing cost to businesses, you’re going to increase costs to customers,” says economics professor Judge Glock. “These are unimaginably complicated markets where the company’s main job is interfacing between restaurants and delivery workers and customers. Then you have an economically illiterate city council or mayor who thinks, basically by looking at an industry through reading the news, they can appropriately regulate the exact wage.”
Former Seattle City Council President Sara Nelson admits that the politicians made a mistake: “We created a problem and it’s our responsibility to fix it.”
They repealed the harmful law?
No.
Government promises the solution that makes the problem worse that requires more government.

ONE LAST F-U ON HIS WAY OUT THE DOOR: Outgoing UK PM Keir Starmer to Free Up to 6,000 Prisoners, Including Killers and Rapists, Early. “The reforms will allow eligible prisoners to leave custody sooner under revised release rules as part of the Labour government’s efforts to reduce prison overcrowding. Reports indicate that between 5,000 and 7,000 prisoners could benefit from the changes, with the first releases expected to begin in September.”
MERDE: Paris Bans Alcohol Consumption, Sales Amid Heatwave.
French authorities said public consumption of alcohol would be banned in Paris from Friday, saying hospitals in and around the capital were overwhelmed amid a record-breaking heatwave.
“We are reaching a saturation point in hospital facilities,” Paris police prefect Patrice Faure said, adding that “the number of hospitalisations keeps increasing.”
“I must ensure that the pressure decreases,” he said, listing a series of measures.
Alcohol consumption in the streets and other public places as well as takeaway alcohol sales will be banned from Friday, Faure told reporters.
An order, published Thursday, prohibits public consumption of alcohol between 12 pm Friday and 7 am Saturday, and between 12 pm Saturday and 7 am Sunday.

SPACE: 13 years and $500 million for a stage adapter? Report justifies NASA cancellations.
The least expensive of the four contracts, for the Universal Stage Adapter, is perhaps the most illustrative. NASA contracted with Dynetics in June 2017 to design, test, and build this piece of spaceflight hardware. Made largely of composites, the adapter weighed 9,650 pounds (4.3 metric tons) and stood 33 feet (10 meters) tall.
The original contract awarded to Dynetics totaled $131 million, to which NASA later added $9 million for a payload separation system. At the time the program was canceled earlier this year, the contract value had grown to $353 million, with a delivery date delayed to September 2028. The inspector general’s report projected that the project would likely cost $497 million and not be ready until May 2030.
To be clear: NASA was likely going to pay half a billion dollars for a relatively straightforward stage adaptor. This doesn’t have propulsion or anything like that on board. Also, for some unfathomable reason, it was likely to take 13 years to build.
Isaacman is giving NASA a much-needed shakeup.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: Second Amendment Fans Can Start Celebrating Independence Day Early. “Democrats don’t like fair fights, so they prefer that their lawlessness not be hindered by law-abiding citizens who can defend themselves. They blather on about wanting to fight injustice and inequality, but when they gain majority power in a state the first thing they do is go after legal gun owners.”
WE’RE IN A DISTANT THIRD PLACE: China Now Leads World Submarine Construction.
World submarine construction is growing to levels unseen since the Cold War in the 1980s. And in stark contrast to back then, today many more countries are involved. An estimated 77 submarines have been launched in the past 5 years (2021-present) by some 16 countries. This number includes 33 nuclear-powered submarines in 6 countries (China, Russia, United States, United Kingdom, France and India). Brazil and North Korea also have nuclear-powered boats under construction, but they have yet hit the water. Meanwhile South Korea and Australia have plans to operate nuclear boats.
But one country stands out for both their dramatic increase in volume and rapid pace of technical development. China has established a commanding lead in submarine production. Over the past five years, it has launched about 24 submarines. This is twice Russia’s 12 and more than triple the United States’ output of 7 boats.
We’re barely ahead of Japan at six.
