TODAY'S NEWS, February 14-16, 2026

IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) Here is a sober and sane assessment by Shipwreckedcrew of what Pam Bondi is doing and what her remarkable accomplishments are, despite all the Epsteinoid panicans. She will be remembered as a great and extremely effective AG. She just released the FULL Eppy file with no names redacted, over 3.5 million pages. I imagine there will be some late night reading for the pedos this week. 2) This is headed for the VA Supreme Court, but a VA judge put that state's obscene redistricting plan on hold.3) Trump's administration just required absolute receipt verification for every dollar spent. This is a good X post on exactly what that means. Oh, and ol Elon's push for Medicaid data release? Elon wins. ("Finish him!") 4) President Trump will sign an executive order requiring Voter ID. 5) This is the way. Housing and Urban Development has launched an investigation into the Muslim city that is inherently destructive and divisive and in violation of civil rights. 6) The FAA is pushing mandates to require merit-based hiring and pay only for pilots. 7) From 2018 to 2024, the FBI opened 1,200 illegal probes into American politicians, journalists, religious leaders, and academics. 8) Fat Fani Willis is now potentially on the hook for $17 million in Trump attorney's fees and is wriggling. 9) A former team USA figure skater was shot and killed in front of a Starburqa by a convicted ex-felon. 10) Of course they are: CO has introduced a bill to legalize prostitution. IN THE EPSTEIN FILES 11) Another resignation results from Eppy: the top lawyer at Goldman, Kathy Rummier. Then Dubai's DP World CEO, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem was caught in the Eppy Pig Sty and resigned. 12) Yale prof David Gelernter was suspended after his name came up in the Eppy files. He was known for losing vision in one eye and feeling in his hand when he opened a package (unknowningly) from the Unabomber. 13) Aaaannnnd . . . the owner of a popular school photography company was mentioned in Eppy's tomes. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 14) ICE has a long term plan to turn warehouses into detention centers. Doesn't sound like Trump is pulling back in any way, shape, or form. So far, ICE has acquired seven of these babies. It's a $38 billion expenditure, so this ain't temporary. IN TRANSOID NEWS 15) The sponsor of so-called "GayDays" (i.e., homosexual celebrations) at Disney pulled out, leaving the festivities in limbo. 16) Two more big "detransitioner" cases are headed to trial. 17) Goooooood. SpewMore is introducing legislation to make the homosexual rainbow flag a congressionally designated flag. This will have a big backlash. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 18) Here is the story of Fed Ex's demise: it was sold to cost-cutting Indians. IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS 19) Rubio had an amazing speech at Munich. 20) Irena Slav on the collapse of the carbon credit market. 21) US embassies are raising cash from foreign countries for the 250th birthday party. IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS 22) AI wars are heating up as Disney sent a cease and desist order to Bytedance for a "pirated library of Disney's copywrited characters from Star Wars, Marvel," and other Disney properties. As Zero Hedge put it, this amounts to a "billion dollar movie in just one prompt." I know the Eppy files are, ahem, sexier (pardon the pun) but this is where the real 21st century battle is unfolding, of humanity's right to itself. 23) What's in your wallet? Snoop Dogg's credit card was declined while trying to purchase a cheeseburger and chicken wings at the Winter Olympics. 24) Ex-NFL star Tre Johnson, dead at 54. IN MEDICAL NEWS 25) High caffeine intake is associated with significantly lower risk of dementia. So I should be safe. 26) A scientist gave himself brain damage by using a secret audio weapon trying to disprove Havana Syndrome. AND FINALLY . . . 27) A policy of placing defibrillators in a TX city's neighborhoods has cut deaths by heart attacks from 10% to 47%.
