BAD NEWS FOR DENTISTS: Goodbye, Cavities? This Natural Amino Acid Helps Teeth Fight Sugar.

YES.

Those are "sanctuary states" where local and state officials refuse to cooperate with lawful efforts by DHS to remove illegal aliens from the United States.

ICE does not need to "focus" on states that cooperate — removals from those states are easy and ongoing. https://t.co/Mer1V6sE33

Whatever gets the Cluster B loonies excited this week.

CHIVALRY WAS A CODE THAT MADE BEHAVIORAL DEMANDS ON WOMEN AS WELL AS MEN.

Notice a woman physically attacked a man, and when he grabbed her mask, another man (maybe with the woman) expressed outrage that he “hit a woman.”

Weaponized chivalry.

Part of the reason women are taking the lead at these protests is that they consider themselves untouchable. https://t.co/pbttvTWBnb

THANKS. I had well over 180K when I disabled my account back in the old, pre-Elon days. I had to build anew when I restarted. I haven’t tried super hard to build my numbers, but I’d appreciate a follow from whoever is on X.

It is akin to a sin against social media that @instapundit has only 23k followers after nuking his original account some time back.

This is an OG — in reality — of conservative political blogging.

There are a few still around who go back to the beginning of that blogosphere…

YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE LEFT’S DEFINITION OF “DOING GOOD” IS PURELY “PROMOTING LEFTIST DOMINANCE.” There is no other.

Crazy how people will watch Elon Musk literally bypass authoritarian regimes to give people internet access during literal blackouts and uprisings, then turn around and say he’s done nothing good for humanity.

UPDATE: Yes.

Elon saved civilization. I don't think I am overstating his importance. We were headed down a dark path. The basic moral tenets that are the basis of civil society were being eroded. We are not free of the evil influences yet but we are at an inflection point. I have hope.

MEAN GIRL POLITICS:

I have no problem with people whose opinions differ from mine. I'm not even sure this woman's opinion IS that far from mine…
But the adolescent behavior, the taunting & substitution of broad meaningless invective and mean-girl shit for honest discourse? Made me despise them.

Notice how “progressive” protests are suddenly… very White? That didn’t happen by accident. A few reasons why:

1️⃣ The money dried up. After the BLM grift exposure and the Trump-era DEI backlash, funding for Black-led NGOs collapsed. When the checks stopped, so did the… pic.twitter.com/bNDjRCo7s6

They succeeded.

THAT DOESN’T SEEM DESPERATE AT ALL:

Right now islamic regime media is posting videos from Soleimani's funeral procession 6 years ago and presenting them as a rally today.

They're also showing other old footage with trees in full bloom despite it being winter and January.

Propaganda efforts 1/10.

DON SURBER: Beat the Press: In this administration, everyone pushes back against reporters.

#JOURNALISM: “I like the NYT’s correction at the bottom: ‘An earlier version of this article misstated how much consumers spent on beef tallow in 2025. It was $9.9 million, not $900 million.’ That’s kind of a never mind correction. They wrote this whole article about the hot new business that is beef tallow and then it turned out to be on 1.1% of what they thought it was!”
