1) President Trump gave Pootie-poot a letter from the First Lady imploring him to seek peace.
2) The summit between President Trump and Pootie-poot ended on a friendly note, but without a cease fire in Ukraine. Nevertheless, Trump says they will be going straight to an end-of-the-war scenario. Today, Green Screen Zelensky and the Euros are in town. (Sounds like a band). The Left and the warhawks in the GOP are counting on these talks to fail. As i stated on X, leftists on the whole utterly hate ANYTHING positive President Trump does. Hence, the Washington Examiner has five stories the Hoax Media failed at. At any rate, dollars to donuts that the discussions are overwhelmingly about "security guarantees" for Ukraine, and may involve a hodgepodge of foreign troops, including Turks. Great. Just what Europe needs is more Muslims.
3) Another DemoKKKrat, this time LaToya Cantrell, Mayor of N'yawlins, has been indicted for corruption.
4) A court (naturally) temporarily halted the Trump administration's installation of a new D.C. police commissioner.
5) Pam Bondi is on a winning streak of epic proportions. She just won another case---the second big D.C. appeals court ruling in a week---allowing Trump to proceed to reduce the size of the federal work force. Here is the other victory, where an appeals court allowed Trump to cut $2 billion in foreign aid. Step by step . . .
6) VA governor Glenn Youngkin ordered an investigation of the school that assisted youths with abortions without notifying the parents.
7) A new study shows that throughout Europe and America, although leaders tend to align with the majority's economic positions, they are substantially to the left on all cultural issues. So called "right wing populists" in fact bridge that gap.
8) Good. Trump has overturned the Rutabaga climate agenda a breakneck speeds.
9) Trump is going to put forth an executive order getting rid of mail-in ballots and questionable machines. Don't think the Supes would back him on this, as voting procedures are left to the states in the Constitution.
10) At a 2:1 clip, Kollyfornia voters don't like Gruesome's new CA apportionment map. Meanwhile, whipped TX DemoKKKrats returned to vote in the TX redistricting.
11) DemoKKKrat-run Boston descends into Mad Max level as over 100 bikers and dirt bikers took over a freeway tunnel.
12) When you say "big city crime," much of the time you are implying two things: Illegals and homeless. Once again, Trump owns an 80/20 lead over DemoKKKrats, who first responded to his takeover of D.C. as "dictatorship" (what's new?), but now they want to "tread cautiously" as they may have realized that people actually like safe, clean cities. Now, West Virginia, Ohio, and South Carolina are offering National Guard troops to help in D.C. Oh, and Trump's task force on D.C. slashed gun permit wait times from months to days.
13) Homeland Security secretary Kristi Noem says that so far more than 1.6 million illegals have self-deported, bringing the total forcibly deported and self-deported to around 2 million, or right on target.
14) New York gov. Hock-a-lugie pardoned a convicted killer rather than allow him to be deported. Yeah, this stuff is really supported by the public.
15) Ryan Burge finds no evidence that the ranks of the "nones" are swelling from disillusioned evangelicals.
16) The whole Sidney Sweeny uproar was telling in so many ways, not the least of which was that at first DemoKKKrats freaked out because, once again, they still believe that it is the messaging rather than the message that is driving conservative and Trumpian victories. Then, Zero, who disparaged people with their guns and their Bibles, claimed the entire culture war was "phony." Again, this is why he is Zero: he has never had a clue about what was real, thinking he got elected because of his (ahem) "ideas." Anyway, who was putting out the notion that Sweeny was just a "messenger"? It was none other than Robert Flaherty who was part of Rutabaga's digital coverup machine. Writer Robert Busek notes in The Federalist that this shouldn't be a surprise, as many of the DemoKKKrat "legislators" now are little more than social media grifters (Think Jazzy What-a-Crockett or Farticus---Eric Swalwell). Not surprisingly, Flaherty concludes (as do almost all of the leftists offering solutions) that the key is to focus on the "formation of perceptions." Get it? Not fixing problems, which is what Trump (and a handful) of Republicans do, but convincing you that they are trying to fix problems. DemoKKKrats are turning out to be the AI Girlfriend who tell a guy what he wants to hear, but ultimately are just air. Except in many cases the DemoKKKrats are so far gone they are the AI Girlfriend from Hell who tells the guy how horrible he is. Good luck.
17) A related story is here: "How Downtown LA became a "boarded-up ghost town."
18) Another important cultural piece comes from City Journal and asks "Why isn't the Left marching for universities?" The answer is threefold. Universities have become increasingly less important in our economic and cultural lives; they have become overwhelmingly woke,; and their work product is under suspicion for being compromised by Prog values, especially after October 7. As an American historian, it's fascinating to note the difference between the media/university reaction to 9/11 and the reaction to Israel's 9/11, October 7. It's night and day, and in the process, the universities have become tarred by their fanatical Jew hatred.
19) Finally, in this group of stories about culture, see my substack called "Para-(Social)-SITES" that shows from Vegas's decline to the rise of lobotomized video game watchers (get it? These kids aren't playing the video games, they are like a crowd at a tennis match) are symptoms of a dysfunctional society headed for AI-type="romantic" breakups and worse. I will not be surprised if before too long we do not have a shooting by a male who was dumped by his AI "girlfriend."
20) Green Screen Zelensky and several Euro leaders will meet in D.C. this week to try to finalize a Uke peace deal. An "international security force," including Turks, may be the final point that ensures a peace agreement. Meanwhile, Pootie-poot allowed Exxon-Mobil to return to the Sakhalin-1 oil and gas project.
21) How nice of him. Dictator Xi told Trump he would not invade Taiwan so long as Trump was president. Meanwhile the ChiComs are short on foreign money and are changing policies to establish more incentives.
22) While blustering in public, the president of Me-hee-co has made a "titanic effort" which has been successful in reducing the flow of fentanyl.
23) Tesla is doing ok with self-driving cars, but the ChiCom companies are struggling.
24) As David Blackmon shows, Guyana is slowly making itself into an energy powerhouse with deals with U.S. companies for logistics.
25) Talk about an authoritarian government: The South Koreans are now little different from the NORKS, jailing the former president and first lady and pulling private data on five million citizens.
26) According to a Uke observer, Russian recruiting is better than ever.
27) Hollywood has been rocked by a new AI movie production tool called "Showrunner" that allows amateurs to make good movies. You know, with a story.
28) MSNBC will separate from NBC News and become MSNow. Right. Ought to be "MS1840s".
29) ESPN will not air Spike Lee's docuseries on the washed up racist quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who has otherwise vanished after all his bluster.
30) Actor Terence Stamp, a Superman villain, but excellent in all roles, dead at 87.
31) Airline pilot deaths and disabilities shot up after pilots were required to get the China Virus vax.
32) HHS revived a dormant vax safety task force, and the Hoax News Media can't stand it. How DARE Bobby Kennedy obey the law?
33) Smoking had declined massively since the late 1980s. Now, it appears, drinking is declining too. Well, all except for these guys.
34) This woman is the sole resident of this town, the smallest incorporated town in America. So when she says, "This town's not big enough for the two of us," she is likely literally correct.
