The News of Today is the History of Tomorrow



IN POLITICAL NEWS


1) These libs are pretty funny. Noah Smith (NoCommonSense) has insisted DemoKKKrats can win but they must become "deficit hawks" (Yeah, how'd that work out for Republicans all those years?) and ditch progressive woke ideas. That's like cutting off both legs. Oh, and embrace voter ID. Please. Let's do that. Matthew Yglesias basically wants more "resist" and "get loud" at town halls. Um hmm. Over at the "Liberal Patriot' they want to emphasize inflation and the unconstitutionality of DOGE (it isn't) The problem with staking the majority of your position on being either a "deficit hawk" or inflation is that these are going to change, probably within six months. Reagan took about a year to really turn inflation around, but he turned it around. The incredible fuel/energy bonanza is coming, and will affect ALL prices, not just gas. Trump's multiple investment deals will begin to kick in by mid summer. And the phenomenal savings DOGE is finding will go a long way toward keeping the deficit down. Moreover, this just isn't a sexy issue. Republicans have been deficit hawks since Ike and it has never worked. In fact it almost always results in a deal to raise taxes, which proves more unpopular than deficits. Stay with the Harding/Coolidge/Reagan plan. Hold down spending to something reasonable (even 10% growth is acceptable) and grow your way out. Cut wherever you can. DemoKKKrats don't have a hope in hell if this is all they have. Meanwhile, in the real world, libs are in "Utter panic" about Dan Bongino's appointment as deputy FBI director. And, see, here is another reason the "inflation/deficit" crap won't work: 52% of Americans think DemoKKKrats left the border open intentionally.


2) A bunionpicker judge has blocked DOGE from seeing the records of the Office of Personnel Management and the Department of Education for now. This won't last. Meanwhile, Trump is simply deconstructing the latter. Election news is mixed in special elections, where in Maine's state house a D won and in Connecticut's Special a Republican won big---almost 7 points greater than Trump when he took that district. In Kollyfornia's special---where they have the weird jungle primary rules---Republican Stan Ellis won so big there won't even be a runoff!




5) DOGE and the EPA got back $67 million in "environmental justice" grants.


6) The House narrowly passed a resolution agreeing to craft the budget around President Trump's agenda. This means the committees will get to work on the specific provisions. The senate already looks like they are going to pork it up.



8) Cap'n Ron Cringeshaw of TX has made not one but two death threats against Tucker Carlson.


9) Jake the Snake Tapper has written a new book about Rutabaga saying, "Goooollleeeey! Looks like he was a mentally incompetent bilgesocket and they covered it up." No, Snake, YOU covered it up, ya evil scrotumticket.


10) A bipartisan group of lawmakers have introduced a bill to tackle the ChiComs' unfair trade practices. Gee, it's only 2025. Ya think maybe you could have done that 20 years ago?




IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS


13) DHS Secretary Kristi Noem says she has found the leakers who tipped off the illegal criminal invaders about the raids and they will be "fired.' Ah, so not indicted? Jailed for obstruction? Just fired?


14) So much for the "Go to the Front of the Line" crap for illegals. They can no longer fly without ID unless they are self deporting.


15) Mexican drug lord el mayo wants a US plea deal without la cerveza de muerta.


IN CULTURAL NEWS





IN ECONOMIC NEWS


18) Consumer confidence falls as inflation fears rise.




21) Apple has added a major server manufacturing plant in Houston, adding to a construction boom.


22) The FDIC has quit listing all assets of "troubled banks," fearing to do so might trigger a run.



24) Now we have glass that has photograhpic memory and can store data for eons without power.



IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS


26) The US voted with Russia on a UN resolution condemning Russia for invading Ukraine.


27) Just like the commies did, the Romanians have arrested the "ultra-nationalist" (i.e., common sense, moderate) presidential candidate who just won the last election. Ronald Reagan supposedly ended the Cold War so this wouldn't happen.

28) In retrospect we probably should have just put troops in Britain and let the Huns and Commies fight it out over the Continent for 40 years. "Freedom of speech is a virus. Censorship is the vaccine," said the head of the EU Commission, Ursala van der Leyen. Uncle Adolf would agree with you, ya fascist chlamydia-jumper.


29) Centrist Nationalists, labeled "far right" by idiot Hoax News, are making progress in Romania.



31) Hong Kong, doing its best DOGE impersonation, has axed 10,000 employees and frozen pay for all.


32) The great Rush Limbaugh used to always ridicule green, especially solar and wind energy, for its utter inability to fuel really big cargo movers such as container ships and aircraft. The Euros (surprise) tried a "sustainable aircraft fuel" and (surprise) the company went bankrupt. As Irena Slav shows, despite mandates for increasing the amount of gunk they put in real fuel, no one wants the quasi-combustable chowder masquerading as aviation fuel.





IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS


36) After a number of false reports, the Philadelphia Eagles will be "honored" to accept a White House visit.


37) Kathleen Kennedy, who singlehandedly destroyed the "Star Wars" and "Indiana Jones" franchises, is finally retiring---10 years too late.


38) Wow. If I didn't know better I'd say the author of this pro-America opinion column was Steve Bannon or Donald Trump . . . not Jeff Bezos!


39) "Captain African American: Brave New World" may break even, hitting $291 million worldwide, despite a stale second week.


IN CHINA VIRUS NEWS



AND FINALLY . . .


41) Scientists say they have found extraterrestrial material that is 2,700 years old in cemeteries. What, like this?
