The Eco-Zealots Were Wrong Again

Remember the bratty but fabulously worshipped Greta Thunberg thundering “How dare you” in front of the United Nations, in a screeching speech in which she claimed “We are in the beginning of a mass extinction”? The adults swooned at her feet, not just at the U.N. but at every stop she has made on her never-ending, neurotic speaking tour. But did anyone fact-check her? They should have. She was wrong. Then 16, several years before she caught the next trend and became a Palestinian justice warrior, Thunberg told the General Assembly in 2019 that “People are suffering. People are dying.

Imagine you are holding for dear life onto the table of an examination room, sick, sore, worried, and weary to the marrow of your bones, and expecting any moment to experience the calming presence and soothing tones of your longtime, trusted family physician.
When in bursts a garish figure not in a white coat, but top hat and tails, shouting at the top of his lungs …
Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys and Girls! Welcome to the greatest medical practice on earth … no! in the history of the earth! No! In the history of the universe!
Featuring amazing feats of doctoral derring-do,
We have been writing about the weaponization of government under the Obama and Biden regimes for many years, but even we were shocked by the two revelations of FBI corruption this week, neither of which has received the attention that both deserve.
On Sunday, Just the News reported on evidence it had obtained of how the FBI actively thwarted an investigation into the Clinton Foundation in the run-up to the 2016 election. On Tuesday, it reported newly disclosed evidence that the FBI ignored concerns about not having probable cause to mount its unprecedented raid on Donald Trump’s home in August 2022.
Ford’s Felonious Failure
23 replies
At some point, there will be no news about the Ford Motor Company’s electric vehicle fiasco. But we’re not there yet, as the most recent reports show that the automaker is paying dearly for its commitment to a Potemkin market built by a government that promised favors to companies that would follow its agenda.
Ford’s EV misfortunes have reached a nearly unimaginable low. The company announced Monday that it’s taking a $19.5 billion writedown while eliminating a number of its EV models. Reuters calls it “the most dramatic example yet of the auto industry’s retreat from battery-powered models,”
One of the unanswered questions raised by Minnesota’s massive welfare scandal is how it could have gone on so long, given its scale and the fact that alarm bells had been clanging for years.
The New York Times provided the answer, if inadvertently, when it quoted a former fraud investigator in the state attorney general’s office, who said that “There is a perception that forcefully tackling this issue might cause political backlash among the Somali community, which is a core voting bloc” for Democrats.
That is it in a nutshell when it comes to government waste, fraud, and abuse.
Do Voters Trust Supreme Court To Do What’s

Best For U.S.? Yes, But Just Barely: I&I/TIPP Poll 11 replies
Americans mostly trust the nation’s highest court to do what’s best, presumably by scrupulously following the laws enshrined in the 238-year-old U.S. Constitution. But that trust could be tested in coming months, as the Supreme Court decides whether President Donald Trump’s tariffs pass constitutional muster, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
When U.S. Supreme Court Justices are sworn in to office, they vow to “support and defend the
Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”
With this in mind, the I&I/TIPP Poll this month asked voters simply:
Who Made Life In The U.S. Unaffordable?
20 replies
The Democrats have decided that “affordability” is the issue that will win the next election cycle. Are they daft? The most unaffordable states and cities in the country are Democrat strongholds.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, the Democrat from New York, one of the least affordable states in the country, has told party leaders they need “to adopt a laser focus on the affordability crisis,” says Axios.
Politico noted that the “Democrats are gearing up to hammer the GOP on the issue,” then quickly jumped in to help, declaring that the “Republicans have an affordability problem.”
Will the Democrat strategy work? Not if voters get the facts,
During oral arguments this week, liberal Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor told Solicitor General D. John Sauer, “You’re asking us to destroy the structure of government.”
To which anyone following this case should say “Amen!”
The case involves Trump’s decision in March to fire Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, a member of the Federal Trade Commission whom Trump appointed to the FTC in his first term, but decided that letting her remain would be “inconsistent with the administration’s priorities.”
Stop Recycling Plastic

Microplastic accumulation in the human body could be a serious health hazard, according to some researchers, and might be linked to cancer, heart attacks and other threatening medical conditions. We’ll never eliminate all microplastic from the environment, but we could significantly reduce the volume if we’d just shut down plastic recycling.
A Stanford Medicine article says scientists estimate that “adults ingest the equivalent of one credit card per week in microplastics,” which sounds frightening, even though only a “few studies have directly examined the impact of microplastics on human health, leaving us in the dark about how dangerous they
Let’s get right into it, shall we?
Attorney Gregory Joseph has filed a Petition for Postconviction Relief seeking to vacate the 2021 second-degree murder conviction of former Minneapolis Department Officer Derek Chauvin related to the death of pseudo-saint George Floyd. (News of which you certainly missed because, despite its sensational assertions, it was largely swept under the rug by legacy media.)
Why now? As counsel expresses in a 71-page memorandum accompanying the petition, in the vain hope (to somewhat give away the conclusion here) that “removed from the hysteria of the day,” a court “can finally look at the facts
About That Retracted Climate Report …

The global warming crisis blob is eager to bullhorn any scrap of “science” to scare the industrial West into surrendering to its agenda. But it turns out that when a much-touted report was slain by error, then the metaphorical crickets, not the ones the elites want us to eat to save the environment, are all that can be heard.
A paper published in the science journal Nature in April 2024 was retracted this week by its authors because “the results were found to be sensitive to the removal of one country, Uzbekistan, where inaccuracies were noted in the underlying economic data for the period 1995–1999.”
President Donald Trump took another welcome step this week to free the auto industry from the grip of federal regulators who are largely to blame for the boring, homogenized fleet of cars that fill up the roads these days.
On Wednesday, Trump released a plan to roll back federal corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) standard to levels that won’t force Americans into electric cars.
In what he’s calling a reset, the plan is to chuck the Biden administration’s fuel mandate – a mandate specifically designed to force car buyers into EVs.
As the White House correctly put it,

When it comes to hit jobs, the 10,000-word Vanity Fair spread on Susie Wiles is a classic of the genre.
Chris Whipple, a veteran journalist, producer and author with a career spanning the constellation of left-wing media — CBS’s “60 Minutes,” ABC, MSNBC, CNN, NPR, Politico, The Daily Beast, The New York Times, The Washington Post — has craftily framed the president’s chief of staff in a narrative of typical Trump-derangement fantasies.
The wonder is that she let him do it.
And there’s no doubt she did.
Washington journalism veteran Mark Halperin on his 2WAY podcast says Wiles may have thought the 11 interviews Whipple said she did this year were off the record.
The unspeakable tragedy that has been visited upon the family of Rob Reiner has likely left all parents in shock.
Given what has been available to read about Nick Reiner these past several days, since the murder of his parents, it has shed a little light on what that family has endured since their son Nick was eight years old, maybe even before that.
He was apparently a difficult child long before he became a drug user.
His parents tried to help him way back then after he disrupted their yoga sessions.
They hired their trainer to work specifically with Nick, thinking yoga would help him

A Wisconsin judge accused of concealing an undocumented man to prevent his arrest by immigration authorities was found guilty of felony obstruction, according to ABC Milwaukee affiliate WISN, which was in the courtroom for the trial.
Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan was charged in a two-count federal indictment that alleges she obstructed official Department of Homeland Security removal proceedings and knowingly concealed the man from immigration authorities at a courthouse in April.
Dugan was found guilty of obstructing federal agents and not guilty of concealing an undocumented immigrant from arrest during an April courthouse incident.
A murder spree from hell

The man suspected of carrying out two murderous attacks — one at Brown University that killed two students and wounded nine more, and another that killed the MIT professor in his Brookline home — was found dead in a storage unit in Salem, New Hampshire last night. The murderer apparently took the coward’s way out.
Listening to the Providence press conference last night — it was followed by one featuring United States Attorney Leah Foley speaking about the murder of MIT Professor Nuno F.G. Loureiro — we learned that a witness who had confronted the murderer on the Brown campus provided the key to the breaking of the case
Democrats are sinking like a stone, and the new Quinnipiac poll makes it official: their congressional approval rating has hit a historic low of just 18%, with a brutal 73% disapproving. That's the worst number Quinnipiac has recorded since they started asking the question back in 2009. Even CNN's chief data analyst, Harry Enten, couldn't hide his shock, declaring that "Democrats, in the minds of the American public, are lower than the Dead Sea."
The real kicker? Democrats are turning on their own party. Only 42% of Democratic voters approve of how their representatives in Congress are performing, while 48% disapprove.
America has a lot of secrets: the nuclear launch codes, what’s going on at Area 51, Bigfoot, why the Denver International Airport seems so odd, whatever happened to D. B. Cooper, and exactly what evidence convinced several U.S. government agencies that the most likely cause of the Covid-19 pandemic was a lab leak.
And over at the Democratic National Committee, they’re locking up the biggest secret of all: why the Democrats lost the 2024 election.
In a move that should unleash harsh criticism and recriminations,
What to know about the investigations into the Brown University shooting and the killing of an MIT professor:
The suspect in the Dec. 13 mass shooting on the campus of Brown University has been found dead in a storage unit in Salem, New Hampshire, sources told CBS News. Two students were killed and nine were wounded in the shooting. Multiple sources familiar with the investigation had told CBS News earlier Thursday that a person of interest has been identified in the shooting.
On January 14, Charles Foehner will begin serving a four-year prison sentence.
Yes, New Yorkers, we can finally rest easy. We got him. And by him, I mean a 67-year-old man who poses no danger to society.
Foehner is a retired doorman with the gift of gab, a devoted wife, and a habit of saying “groovy.” He spends his time watching naval history videos on YouTube. While there are many violent criminals with rap sheets the length of a CVS receipt walking our streets, Queens DA Melinda Katz decided to throw the book at this senior citizen, after he pleaded guilty to owning unlicensed guns.
Ready for another exciting episode of "Rampant Welfare Fraud Costs the Taxpayers Billions?" Well, here we are; this time it's Colorado, and the fraud has to do with housing assistance from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Investigators have uncovered 221 people receiving federal housing assistance who have no business receiving it, unless one can consider a coffin or an urn "housing." That's right. 221 dead people, out of almost 3,000 people in Colorado who were improperly receiving benefits from HUD. Here's the question: Were these just mistakes, the results of bad record-keeping, or deliberate fraud? Not that either is exactly a comfortable finding; when the answer
The European Union continues to hammer away at American companies under the guise of "Digital Regulation." The Digital Markets Act (DMA) and the Digital Services Act (DSA) have become tools of economic and political aggression, masquerading as consumer protection. All of this, of course, under the European guise of "protecting democracy." (snip) What the EU is doing is nothing less than an extraterritorial power play meant to export European censorship norms into America.
Europe faces a question of “money today, or blood tomorrow”, its leaders were told as they entered crunch meetings on whether to approve a financial structure using frozen Russian assets to enable a mega loan to Ukraine.
The leaders of European Union member states met for a session of the European Council on Thursday, talks which are expected to go all day, for discussions on using frozen Russian assets held in European countries to guarantee a loan to Ukraine to keep it solvent. The European Union believes Kyiv needs a cash injection of $160 billion to pay for its military and civil expenses for the next two years
The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts will now bear the names of two American presidents after its board of trustees voted unanimously on Thursday to rename the institution “The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts.” The decision, announced on December 18, 2025, marks a historic renaming of the iconic Washington, DC, venue. The board’s unanimous decision recognizes Chairman Donald J. Trump’s role in saving the institution from what Roma Daravi, Vice President of Public Relations at the Kennedy Center, described as “financial ruin and physical destruction.”
