SEEMS PLAUSIBLE:

NORTHERN BARBARIAN ON X ISN’T READY TO DROP THE PSEUDONYM YET, but he’s an old time warblogger and old-style journalist. Worth following if you’re on X.

JUDGING BY ITS ACTIONS — AND INACTIONS –THE GLOBAL ESTABLISHMENT BASICALLY APPROVES OF MASSACRES OF CHRISTIANS:

IT’S ALL ABOUT WHO IT HELPS AND HURTS:

SAME:

LITERALLY. THE LITERAL STATUE OF LIBERTY.

TRUMP’S CRUELTY KNOWS NO BOUNDS:

BETTER PUT SOME ALOE ON THAT BURN, STEPHEN:

THEY WON THE OLD FASHIONED WAY:

CDR SALAMANDER: Base Defense: How Many More Warnings? Ignoring the known knowns. “The Army, especially during GWOT, didn’t just underfund air defense in general and treat it as a secondary career field—it never even considered what was needed to defend bases. The USAF? No better…and they relied on the Army for air defense. It was only 18 months or so ago they started to experiment with base defense.”

UPDATE:

HIGHER EDUCATION BUBBLE UPDATE: Harvard To Borrow Another $675 Million as Applications Plunge.

Among the key disclosures:

— “First-year student applications received” by Harvard plunged more than 21 percent to 47,893 for the 2025-2026 academic year from a recent high of 61,221 in 2022-23. Peer institutions such as Yale reported 54,919 applicants this year, Brown 47,937 applicants, and Columbia 61,031 applications. Harvard isn’t releasing its application numbers for students entering in the fall of 2026 until it is required to by the federal government, the Harvard Crimson reported.

— Harvard, which has been complaining it is so financially strapped that potentially life-saving cancer research is endangered, employs 12 vice presidents. The United States of America somehow manages with just one vice president, and MIT somehow survives with a mere seven.

Well, Harvard has nobody like J.D.

NOT TIRED OF WINNING, BUT MAYBE A BIT TIRED OF SO MUCH COMIC RELIEF FROM THE LEFT:
