Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics is full of good advice and wise observations. So is the upbeat summary of Donald Trump’s practical ethics, presented in his video “Eleven Life-Changing Lessons.”
Did you snicker when you saw the names “Aristotle” and “Donald Trump” juxtaposed? Of course you did. Aristotle is one of the greatest philosophers in history, and his Ethics, along with his Politics, may lay claim to being among the greatest repositories of practical wisdom in the Western tradition.
And Donald Trump? Well, he is a conspicuously successful businessman, a devoted father, and a celebrated media personality. He is also, in case you hadn’t noticed,

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth arrived at Redstone Arsenal Friday to unveil the new headquarters for the U.S. Space Force, solidifying Alabama as the epicenter of America's orbital defense operations and marking a triumphant return to President Trump's vision of unchallenged U.S. superiority in space.
The event, also attended by Space Command Commander Gen. Stephen Whiting, Secretary of the Air Force Troy Meink, and other local leaders, featured Hegseth pulling back the curtain on fresh U.S. Space Command signage at the sprawling Redstone facility.

US President Donald Trump may believe that selling F-35 stealth warplanes to Turkey will help the country forge closer ties with the US at the expense of Russia. The reality, though, is that by providing such sophisticated fighter jets to a country that supports Hamas terrorists -- and whose president recently said that "Israel will have no choice but to kneel in front of Turkey" -- Trump is merely stoking the flames of a future war aimed at destroying Israel.

Are Americans feeling worse this holiday season than in recent years? That’s the narrative emerging from the legacy press but there’s very little to support it. The Associated Press published a widely distributed story this week claiming American shoppers face economic conditions this holiday season that “look very similar” to December 2022, when inflation hit a four-decade high. But an examination of the polling data reveals the news organization strategically omitted asking key questions about holiday shopping behavior in 2023 and 2024, while using loaded language and selective anecdotes to manufacture a narrative of Trump-era economic failure.

Christmas could be coming twice.
Working Americans are going to get “very large refunds” of $1,000 to $2,000 per household early in the new year, according to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
The checks will come in the first quarter of 2026 as a result of tax cuts in President Donald Trump’s sweeping, budget-focused One Big Beautiful Bill Act, he said.
“I think we’re going to see $100-$150 billion of refunds, which could be between $1,000, $2,000 per household,” Bessent said Wednesday. After getting the refund, US residents are expected to change their withholding status so that less tax is taken from each paycheck.

In the gathering dusk of a North Norfolk evening, where the North Sea mists drift in from a cold and indifferent sea, James Nye, 44, whose family has run East Anglian inns for 30 years, stands behind the bar of the White Horse in Holme-next-the-Sea. The pub, a low, Grade II-listed sentinel of stone and brick, flickers beneath strings of fairy lights that feel less festive than quietly defiant. Nye, steward of 10 inns, draws a pint of Adnams Ghost Ship while the low growl of tractors fades along the lanes outside – protest vehicles nursing wounds deeper than any fresh furrow.”

Nuts to that.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom was roasted online for his bizarre AI-created reaction to being called out by The Post for sitting in a testicle-crushing pose during an interview.
Newsom’s press office took to X Friday to try and deflect from the many masculinity-mocking pol-watchers with a doctored image of the governor in an even more compromising yoga-style pose on stage at The New York Times Dealbook Summit.
“Democracy requires flexibility,” the tone-deaf Governor Newsom Press Office wrote in a caption to the post. The strange attempt at humor fell flat with X-users who were aghast at the extra eyeful of Gavin.
“They…Posted this?” Mark Mitchell from Rasmussen Report.

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Mehmet Oz on Friday warned Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz the state could lose federal Medicaid funding unless it restores "the integrity" of its program.
In a post on X, Dr. Oz claimed more than $1 billion had been stolen through a massive Medicaid fraud scheme carried out by "bad actors" within Minnesota’s Somali community, alleging some of the funds "may have even made its way to the Somalian terrorist group (al-Shabab)."
"Our staff at CMS told me they’ve never seen anything like this in Medicaid —

The left beclowns itself again and again
It is actually rather sad … the Democrats keep trying out new narratives every couple of days.
This week, it is the blowing up of narcoterrorist boats.
This is a bad thing, they say.
Cocaine from Venezuela has killed tens of thousands of Americans, but the Democrats are mad that our fabulous military is taking them off the map.
Never mind that Venezuela has been shipping drugs to the U.S. and rigging elections around the world for decades. A few weeks ago, the Dems' hair was on fire over the Jeffrey Epstein documents they were demanding be released.

With the reversal of Roe, abortion legislation is now back in the hands of the states, but any success for the pro-life movement was unacceptable for New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin. Thus, he decided to target pro-life centers in New Jersey in a way that stood to intimidate the center’s donors, and possibly threaten its services:
Platkin, a Democrat appointed by Gov. Phil Murphy, began scrutinizing pregnancy counseling centers in July 2022 by launching a ‘strike force’ to promote abortion access in the wake of the Supreme Court’s landmark Dobbs decision. Platkin said such facilities presented consumer fraud concerns because they misled donors and clients about the services they offered.

A writer at the LA Times clearly has his head in the sand, as evidenced by his latest piece, where he pretends that “things have changed” because Democrats with seriously scandalous pasts are still elected to office, or surging toward election.
He cites three examples: gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter in California who berated her staff; Graham Platner in Maine who had a Nazi tattoo and berated blacks and the police, and now-AG of Virginia who wished for the shooting death of his opponent and his children.
(These three individuals are all still supported by most of the media and their fellow Democrats.)
