KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: Mike Rogers Leads the Way Out of the Republican Debate Trap. “Rare is the occasion when I happen upon a news item that makes me wish there were someone around to high-five. Honestly, I don’t think that I have been in that kind of mood since election night in 2024. Michigan’s Mike Rogers has gotten me fired up again.”
CORN, POPPED: Federal criminal probe of Newsom expands; Lurie’s wife Prowda named in subpoenas.
The subpoenas — which were issued in early September and requested testimony and communications with the governor, among others — seek six years of records involving the California State Protocol Foundation, a nonprofit that has paid for Newsom’s overseas travel, as well as communications with current and former aides, advisers, and associates. Those aides include Rebecca Prowda, who oversees Newsom’s overseas travel as his chief protocol officer and is the wife of San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie.
The documents provide the clearest picture yet of the scope of a federal investigation effort Newsom first disclosed in June (opens in new tab), which he said was focused on him and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom.
“The records requested by this subpoena are for use in a criminal investigation pending in the Eastern District of California,” says one of the documents, signed by Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael D. Anderson.
The records obtained via subpoena will be presented to a grand jury, a group of jurors that acts like a judge, reviewing evidence and testimony to decide if there’s sufficient grounds for an indictment.
Stay tuned…

MIDDLE EAST: Houthis enter US ‘kill box’ after seizing Red Sea ‘cork,’ former Pentagon official warns.
The island’s capture came after a month-long offensive along Yemen’s western coast that killed more than 1,500 soldiers and forced Yemen’s government to acknowledge a “painful” defeat, according to The Associated Press.
“With Perim, they have gained what we could call the cork in the Red Sea bottle,” Morgan Murphy, a former Pentagon press secretary and Navy Reserve captain, told Fox News Digital.
“But they’ve put themselves into a kill box. They’re nowhere near the capability of the United States and if the president so chooses, he can wipe them off the face of that rock pretty easily,” Murphy warned.
And the Saudi Air Force could have gotten the job done over the weekend, but has been largely MIA against a force choking off Saudi energy exports.
Very curious.

“We said that SpaceX was the big loser in its February merger with xAI. Now, it looks as if SpaceX shareholders were the winners. Revenue has simply accelerated faster than anyone expected. That growth has radically altered near-term earnings forecasts and long-term cash flow projections; As Mark Twain says, we’ll admit that error in forecasting, so we can move on to the next thing we don’t get quite right.”
Like with most things early on, a lot of people struggle to understand or believe in Elon’s vision. But more often than not, he ends up proving the doubters wrong. Nice to see Al admitting he was wrong. More mainstream media should follow his lead.
With all the anti-AI smoke blowing this week, it’s enough to make you wonder if it isn’t partly an anti-Elon play.
I REMEMBER WHEN “WELCOME WEEK” WAS JUST ASKING AROUND FOR WHICH BARS DIDN’T ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE THAN A STUDENT ID: UW-Madison hosts drag show for welcome week festivities.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison hosted a drag show Sunday as part of the festivities to welcome students back to campus.
“One drag queen repeatedly called an audience member a ‘twink’ and joked that the game was ‘good Christian bingo with good Christian values,’” the Madison Federalist student news outlet reported.
“The drag queen also told the players to scream bingo ‘like you’re faking something’ … The drag queen joked that all the men are ‘bottoms’ in Madison.”
I have nothing to add.

If Democrats want to make AI control “the center of the Democratic agenda,” I have to assume they believe AI is a threat to Democratic control.

China is believed to be a generation behind on frontier AI, and a “pause” allows them to catch up — or leap ahead, depending on how long a pause CCP-friendly elements in Congress might impose.
CIVIL RIGHTS UPDATE: Attorneys Try to Build on Remington ‘Negligent Marketing’ Claim to Include Independent Reviews of Guns Used in Crimes.
I was just subpoenaed in an anti-gun lawsuit…for being a guntuber. Link to the lawsuit is below. The case is Roberts v. Smith & Wesson, and it’s the same playbook, almost copy+paste, of the Soto v. Bushmaster “Sandy Hook” lawsuit against Remington, which put them out of business.
This one arises from the Highland Park July 4 shooting, where the killer used an M&P15. The plaintiffs are of course attempting to blame S&W for the incident and the theory, you guessed it, “negligent marketing.” They say S&W appealed to young men interested in militaristic imagery and that this influenced the shooter to select the M&P15, and that this more or less was a cause of this incident. Insanity.
Now they are reaching beyond S&W and into firearms media.
I’m old enough to remember when the Left at least put up a pretense of supporting First Amendment rights… which makes me feel pretty old, honestly.
