    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) I had this on Wednesday, but it's sooo juicy I had to repeat it: Trump has revoked and rescinded the "greenhouse gas" finding by the EPA, opening the door for more growth and better affordability. But it also opens the doors to the few mental institutions left standing as the DemoKKKrat Terrorists are acting like Lulu Lemon just ran out of see-through crotches. The New York Slimes absolutely moans "Trump Allies Near 'Total Victory' in Wiping out U.S. Climate Regulation." TOTAL VICTORY. When was the last time any administration claimed that? As best I can tell, it was aboard the U.S.S. Missouri in 1945 when the Japanese acknowledged a first class ass-kicking. Anyone remember that EPA chief Lee Zeldin said he would drive a dagger into the heart of the climate change religion? Cult, meet dagger. 2) Speaking of cults, though this more properly belongs in international news, but a transoid shooter in Canada was just the latest to prove that these people are mentally in the same category as frybread. The Hoax News media cannot even begin to report this stuff honestly. ALL transoids need to be screened for mental loopiness.. This BOY, over 6 foot tall, was upset that even after his tranny transition he wouldn't be "petitie." 3) And another cult took a blow, that of the "2020 Election was Legit" (better known as "81 Million Votes my Ass") as President Trump ordered the CIA to turn over all 2020 election intel to a lawyer who had been involved in "Stop the Steal." I hope President Trump realizes that unless he and John Radcliffe personally pay a visit to the globalist coupsters inside that scum agency, they won't hand over anything except A F "I Voted" sticker. 4) Per Seth Keshel, the last of the McTurdite candidates, Karrin Taylor Robson, dropped out of the AZ governor's race yesterday, leaving Andy Biggs, my (good) Congressman to take the seat from the evil Hobbit. 5) A ChiCom businessman currently in jail is behind the biolabs that the FBI hasbusted. 6) President Trump announced numerous new court nominations. Oh, and if Trump is displeased with Pam Bondi, you sure couldn't tell it by his latest statement. 7) President Trump pardoned five former NFL players including the great Dallas Cowboys guard Nate Newton. IN EPSTEIN NEWS 8) Goldman Sachs top lawyer resigned due to, ahem, "mentions" in the Annals of Eppy. "Best massage ever, but not your kind of massage, she tweeted. Now she calls Eppy a "monster," but then gushed at a "day of joy" and called him "Uncle Jeffrey." 9) A French former culture minister resigned from his post at a cultural center after the Eppy files named him. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 10) The Small Business Administration has banned non-citizens from getting SBA loans. 11) DHS stripped deportation protections from Yemanis, sending them home. Meanwhile, two Pakistani nationals were arrested in a $10 million Medicare Fraud scheme. 12) Not only did Tom Homan say special agents are staying on the fraud investigations in Skinny Minny, but also said they had located 3,500 kids lost by the Rutabaga administration. IN CULTURAL NEWS 13) And here we go. Now Muslim activists in New Kabul (NYC) are trying to get dogs banned as pets because they are "non-Islamic." Why don't you let this rectalgiblet know where you stand and adopt a rescue today? IN TRANSOID NEWS 14) This beauty queen says she was stripped of her title because she refused to endorse transoidism. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 15) Not sure I'd be celebrating this as Spotify seems to be but it says its developers haven't written a line of code since December due to AI. I'm betting said developers are shipping out resumes right now. As this techhie writes, the role of the software engineer is shifting from writing code to managing AI robots. Elon Musk says that soon working will be optional. Well, gee, it already is for 50% of the DemoKKKrat Terror Party. But he also predicts prices for goods will drop dramatically and people won't even have to save for retirement any more---not that many do today. See Jeff Childers' discussion of this in his "Coffee & Covid" column today. This study, meanwhile, says AI is failing at over 95% of jobs. Sorta like an illegal. David Blackmon, the Rush Limbaugh of Energy, says really the whole AI race only comes down to one question, "Us or Chy=na?" 16) As Martin Lawrence's character would say in "Bad Boys," "this s . . .t is about to get real." Yes it is. Microsoft's CEO says that most white collar jobs---get it, not just tech?---will be fully automated in the next 12-18 months. Challenger showed that fully 7% of the job losses in January were due to AI. Folks, forget H1Bs: this is the threat. Mercor just hired thousands of lawyers, doctors, writers, and thousands of "white-collar contractors" to . . . wait for it . . . train its AI to take their jobs. Oh, and my little techless friends, it gets better. Anthropic warns that its Claude could be used for "heinous crimes" ...

    IN POLITICAL NEWS Caveat: You're not going to see discussions of Savannah Guthrie's missing mother because, well, I don't care. There are thousands of missing children out there, many thanks to the DemoKKKrats, and they deserve the attention. 1) A Virginia grand jury refused to indict Sen. Moonman Kelly and others for a seditious video in which they urged service members to disobey orders. One more reminder that there are blue sections of this country that do not care one whit about law, order, or the Constitution. D.C. locals are 92% Terror DemoKKKrat Party supporters. As Jeff Childers, a lawyer, notes, the good news is that the government cannot (still, at least in some places) be judge, jury, and executioner. The bad news for the Moonman cheerleaders is that once again the optics are terrible with a two-tiered justice system. Now, please tell me how Pam Bondi is to blame for this one. 2) My friend Joseph Ford Cotto comes to many of the same conclusions I've come to about where the DemoKKKrats are, namely, screwed. They pretty much have to win 2026 to even hope to stay alive. Good to see more people taking up this banner. 3) Contrary to the predictions of Masshole and Randy Paul, the U.S. deficit continues to shrink under Trump's economic policies, down a whopping $143 billion from this time last year. 4) The administration cleaned out 50 suspected fugitive felons living in one single taxpayer-subsidized house in Franklin Co., OH. Also, DOJ just filed charges against adult day care owners in a $120 million fraud scheme in New York. Some would say "they're going after the small fish," but I would argue that these are the very "fish" that are harming more Americans on a daily basis than the entire Epstein list combined---and yes, I want anyone guilty of a crime arrested and convicted in that list. 5) Republicans won another special election, making the scorecard in the last few months Rs+4, Ds+3. 6) President Trump is going to rescind the government "finding" that "greenhouse gasses" pose a danger to earth. 7) Something is going on in El Paso, where according to the Department of War, cartel drones shut down the airport there. Dunno about you, but seems to me that is an act of war. 8) Broke-ass Kollyfornia, which cannot even begin to finish the rocket train to nowhere or fix a road, passed a bill to give Molochian Planned Murderhood $30 million. Maybe that's why this demonic state has lost one-third of a billion dollars in tax revenues in just three months on the threat of raising more taxes. 9) President Trump eliminated a Zero-era climate finding for autos, which is likely to knock the price of a new car down by as much as $2,500. 10) This absolutely must be challenged in court: an IL city handed out $25,000 in "reparations" to 44 black families. 11) A sad story out of MN as the daughter of a GOP governor candidate was killed in a botched murder-suicide. I never understand why these fungusdimples don't BEGIN with themselves and leave the other people alone. 12) A corrupt federal judge rejected the DoJ's "request" for MI voter data. We can do this the easy way, or the hard way. You're apparently choosing the hard way. 13) Two former FL teachers' union officials have been sentenced to prison for fraud with union funds. IN EPSTEIN NEWS 14) I'm including a new section, at least for a while, because there are so many Jeffrey Epstein-related stories out there. First, his inner circle, including Les Wexner, have been subpoenaed to testify before Congress. 15) One of the biggest stories, er, non-stories, is Trump. He either isn't in the Epstein files or he is shown actively opposing Eppie and trying to get him arrested. 16) Numerous e-mails show prominent people, including the president of Bard College, thanking ol Epper for gifts, including Caribbean cruises. He also "scouted" women (though apparently of age) for NY Midgets owner Steve Tisch. 17) Ghislaine Maxwell hinted that if given clemency by Trump she would spill the beans. There is a way to do this---and if she doesn't do what she promised, she would go right back to prison.18) The lefty Eurasia Review tried to tie it all back to the failures of "market capitalism," but more realistically it is the failure of "nice" government structures that have been unwilling to take on anyone bigger than Martha Stewart. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 19) Out of the blue, now, having demanded body cams for LEOs for decades, SpewMore and "Movin' on Up" Jeffries suddenly don't like them because they usually clearly show moronic protesters acting in ways that get them killed. IN CULTURAL NEWS 20) As it did with every single action, the corrupt Rutabaga administration hid the data on student loan delinquencies so it could make more loans. 21) The UNC system is now 60:40 female. 22) President Trump announced the White House Ball Room is on budget and ahead of schedule, driving the beltway boozeshufflers crazy. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 23) Despite a ...

    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) An excellent pro-ICE ad ran during the Game-Which-Shall-Not-Be-Named. Meanwhile, the Turning Point USA halftime show racked up 25 million viewers. Oh, yeah, I think a team from Seattle won, but I didn't watch. Still in the last season of "Suits." 2) Elon Musk offered to cover the legal costs of any Epstein victims who came forward to "speak truth." DemoKKKrats reportedly seen at local Kroger Depenz aisles. Then there are the five stages of political spoogieness, as the New York Slimes insisted for years there was no blackmail going on over at Epstein Island Island when, gee, now it says, "Hold muh beer." 3) Trump says to DemoKKKrat Terror Party governors, "You want resist? I got resist for ya right here" as he did NOT invite them to the National Governor's Association dinner nor the subsequent White House working group. Why should he? So they can return to their pig sty swillwhistle funding troughs and begin counter preparations? 4) DemoKKKrats won another special election, this time in LA, in a district Trump carried by 13. That puts the last 8 specials at 50/50. 5) GA is turning into a rotten peach, as newly disclosed docs show that Gov. Brian Kemp told the FBI Bureau Chief not to investigate the 2020 fraud. These people do not understand that if this trickle of sleaze becomes a waterfall, Americans will shuck aside their history and character and demand these bowel-wrappers go to jail. 6) TX has sued a giant fiberglass manufacturer Global Fiberglass Solutions for dumping over 3,000 wind turbine blades at Sweetwater, TX. 7) Cackles had a rebrand attempt that failed so badly even CNN called it "cringe." 8) Florida's teacher's union was trying to hide its class syllabi and lessons. They just lost in court. 9) The House Intel chairman warns that there may be a pattern with the ChiCom biolabs that the FBI has been busting, and that they could be setting the stage for a new pandemic. 10) Pete "The Punisher" Hegseth announced that the Department of War will cut all ties to Harvard. Ouch. Put some ICE on that. 11) The Fourth Circuit Court just cleared the way for Trump to exterminate DEI. 12) How Tik Tok's algorithms radicalized soft-brained liberal women. 13) The Small Business Administration just suspended over 111,000 CA borrowers suspected of fraud and will pursue criminal charges against them. Once they got the money, however, the government will be lucky to get back pennies on the dollar. 14) A large number of military transport planes are heading for the Middle East. A few days ago, a Pizza Tsunami was reported at the Pentagon. Something brewing? 15) A federal judge ordered all Fulton Co., GA, voter docs unsealed by tomorrow. Dems suicidal. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 16) About time. The Administration will not comply with a court order to provide due process to illegal Venezuelans shipped back to El Salvador. Pound sand, judicial jigglepickets. IN CULTURAL NEWS 17) This is moving a little faster than even I expected. Now there is a site where AI hires humans to do physical-world tasks. What does AI do when there's a strike? Call in robodogs? 18) Anyone remember Dr. House? His famous line was "Everybody lies." Apparently, Ryan Burge thinks so too. He examines who actually voted vs. who said they voted. Big difference, and it tracks along with those who said they went to church last week. Of those answering a survey, 97% said they voted in the last election, but only 59% actually did so according to the Cooperative Election Study. 19) This is an interesting development. How do you get rid of "women's studies" and "sociology" departments? You tie student loan access to earnings after you graduate. Oh, and speaking of eddication, TX has set a record for the most students applying for the state's new school choice programs. Teacher's Unions are probably double-ordering razor blades. IN TRANSOID NEWS 20) The Human Rights Campaign, otherwise known as the "Queer Lobby," saw a 65% drop in corporate DEI support. Good start, but should be 100%. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 21) Washington Compost CEO and publisher Will Lewis has resigned. Boo hoo. The Compost died in its own darkness. 22) VT's EV bus fleet doesn't work in the cold, which, gee, is about 60% of VT's year. Meanwhile, Jeep EV maker Stellantis lost a $26 billion bet on higher EV demand. 23) On Friday, Feb. 6, after I had already posted Today's News, the DOW hit 50,000 for the first time ever. 24) Irena Slav is not a tech expert, nor does she pretend to be. But she does a great job of tracking the stratospheric investments here by Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, and others (closing on $1 trillion) when so far AI has yet to make a profit on anything or to prove that it's substantially better than what we have. There is a law out there (Peter Thiel's Law) that says that a new tech must be ten times better than the old to effect a replacement. AI is nowhere close to that, yet its denizens are now claiming it will ...
