Look at What Happens When the NGO>Democrat
Pipeline Shrinks

Democrats have a natural advantage going into the midterms. Their voters are in a frenzy, and the midterms have historically favored the out-of-power party. Presidential years tend to be high-turnout elections, and off-years not so much. And since elections are won by margins, every bit of voter motivation matters. Getting a larger share of your voters to the polls can make all the difference, even in situations where the majority of people disagree with you. You need the majority of people who VOTE to win, not the majority of people who have an opinion. With all that said, the Democrats face one very big problem:

n polite company, it's long been considered an unwritten rule that American politicians shouldn't criticize their own country while on foreign soil. In recent years, however, the Democrats have nuked so many traditional views and values, it’s hardly a surprise then that California Gov. Gavin Newsom is currently undermining the nation at the 62nd Munich Security Conference in Germany — instead of tending to the many problems plaguing the Golden State — and is busy blasting the duly elected president of our republic.
He’s joined by other American-bashing Democrats, including democratic socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14), who is pushing a global wealth tax at the conference. What could go wrong?
Secretary of State Marco Rubio took the stage Saturday at the Munich Security Conference (MSC), and you could almost sense the audience – made up largely of European Union (EU) leaders, global elites, and other stakeholders – hold its collective breath as it awaited another tongue-lashing from the United States for abandoning the policies on which Western society once rested.
It's unlikely any of them had forgotten Vice President JD Vance going scorched earth on them last year for their softening stances on free speech. Here's a taste of Vance at MSC 2025: "The threat that I worry most about vis-a-vis Europe is not Russia, not China,
Some people have just unbelievable gall and a total lack of shame — former President Bill Clinton and California Gov. Gavin Newsom immediately come to mind — and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is proving that in spades. After his state refused to cooperate with federal authorities in their effort to clean up Joe Biden’s illegal immigration fiasco, and after endlessly demonizing agents who have tried to bring law and order to the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, and after apparently being completely blind to a massive Somali fraud operation that reportedly took in nine billion dollars in grift,
The city of Chicago exists on another plane of the universe than the rest of us. It's a place where up is down, black is white, and the basic laws of physics are held in abeyance so that when adding one plus one, any number that's convenient (and politically viable) can be the answer.
In Chicago's budget, the "new physics" includes the caveat that nothing is real unless we (the aldermen and the city's hapless Mayor Brandon Johnson) say it is. And even then, nothing is permanent in this alternate plane of the universe. An equation that's "true" today may not be so "true" tomorrow.
Do you think I'm being facetious?
Since November, one key question has percolated: Was Zohran Mamdani a fluke, or a harbinger? According to CNN poll analyst Harry Enten, the actual answer may be: mainstream. At least among Democrats.
Enten provides context for an upcoming special election for a House seat in New Jersey, where former Rep. Tom Malinowski just dropped out rather than face a "progressive far-Left" Democrat. The Cook index for NJ-11 is only a D+5, suggesting that a more moderate candidate should get more traction. Not in today's Democrat Party, Enten explained to Kate Bolduan yesterday: ENTEN: ... Democrats who identify as very liberal or conservative.
There are few things more natural than people from different places and cultures being suspicious of one another. Human beings are tribal by nature, and tribes have always been exclusive.
As human societies grew larger, the "tribe" to which we are loyal has expanded, and the characteristics we use to identify who belongs to it can shift beyond mere proximity and familiarity. We can even have allegiances to different tribes at the same time. Texans tend to see themselves as members of their local community, Texas, the "tribe" of their favorite sports teams, and as Americans. Sometimes the tribal allegiances overlap, and sometimes not.
An aide to New York City's socialist mayor Zohran Mamdani exploded at airline staff in a series of entitled social media rants, it has been revealed.
Mathis Roy Vigne, an advance man for the new leader of the city, used his X profile to berate workers from various airlines, the Washington Free Beacon reports.
The complaints ranged from ranting about airline staff over his business class seats and lounge access and for allegedly failing to serve him a drink.
Vigne, who previously interned for Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, handles publicity and events for Mamdani.
In one complaint dated December of 2019, he fumed at American Airlines for being denied lounge access
The U.S. Department of Justice announced that its Civil Rights Division lodged a new lawsuit against Harvard University, alleging that the Ivy League institution illegally withheld admissions material needed to decide whether the school is continuing to discriminate in the admissions process despite a 2023 Supreme Court ruling.
"Under President Trump’s leadership, this Department of Justice is demanding better from our nation’s educational institutions," Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement. "Harvard has failed to disclose the data we need to ensure that its admissions are free of discrimination — we will continue fighting to put merit over DEI across America."
The Fifth Circuit just handed Texas a major win on ballot harvesting, reversing a lower court and allowing the state’s ban on paid in-person ballot harvesting to take effect.
The ruling clears the way for enforcement of a key provision in S.B. 1, the 2021 election integrity law signed by Gov. Greg Abbott (R). The statute targets compensated political operatives who interact with voters while they are physically handling ballots.
The law defines “vote harvesting services” as:
“in-person interaction with one or more voters, in the physical presence of an official ballot or a ballot voted by mail, intended to deliver votes for a specific candidate or measure.”
Consumer prices rose 2.4 percent over the past year and 0.2 percent in January alone, according to data released Friday by the Labor Department.
The latest consumer price index (CPI) report, which was delayed by the brief government shutdown earlier this month, showed inflation coming in below expectations. Economists expected the annual inflation rate to fall to 2.5 percent in January from 2.7 percent in December, and monthly inflation to hold steady at 0.3 percent, according to consensus estimates.
The new inflation figures are a boost to President Trump and Republicans as they face pressure to show progress against rising prices.

Yesterday I wrote about concerns from economists that the quick adoption of AI might mean a significant disruption of the job market. There seemed to be a wary realization that AI was probably going to do away with some jobs permanently but whether that change would necessarily create a crisis in the marketplace depended on how fast the change happened. If it took ten years, they the economy would adjust. If it took half that, we might have a problem.
Today, Axios has a story highlighting concerns coming not from economists but from people inside the AI industry, several of whom have recently expressed serious concern about how fast things were

It happened again. Another Democratic politician posed for a photo while attempting to cook meat on a grill. This time it was Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D., Va.) who tried to look normal by grilling a substance some claim was intended to represent "beef." The governor posted a photo of herself on X along with the caption "Order up!" and a steak emoji. Many remarked upon the hideous appearance of the alleged meat, as well as the deranged grin on Spanberger's face—the manic visage of an overmedicated wine mom about to mow down a rival's goldendoodle with her luxury SUV. It was a disastrous grill-related performance from the Democrats, but

San Diego County health officials have issued a warning about “dark times” ahead as more measles cases are confirmed in Southern California.
While there has yet to be a case of measles in the county in 2026, neighboring LA and Orange County have confirmed cases and officials there are urging parents to vaccinate their children.
A child crying as they receive vaccinations, comforted by an adult. Measles, the world’s most contagious disease, was declared eradicated in America in 2000, but health officials say with vaccine hesitancy, it is slowly making a comeback, leaving children vulnerable.
Dr. Ahmad Bailony said he has seen a change in how parents feel about vaccinating their kids.
In a major development that could reshape the future of federal election law in the United States, Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) has officially announced her support for the SAVE Act.
With Vice President JD Vance prepared to break a tie if necessary, supporters of the legislation now say they have the numbers needed to pass the bill under a standing or “talking” filibuster scenario, marking a potential turning point in the GOP’s long-running effort to implement nationwide voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements for federal elections.
It can be recalled that Rep. Anna Paulina Luna revealed that Senate leadership is moving toward nuking the so-called “Zombie Filibuster” —

Trump Buries Obama’s Climate Policy

The U.S. government is dismantling the legal foundation of numerous climate protection measures from the era of President Barack Obama. The economy is being freed from the shackles of CO2 fixation. For European businesses, this will soon translate into noticeably higher competitive pressure.
February 12, 2026, marks the end of a political era in the United States. On Thursday, President Donald Trump, together with EPA administrator Lee Zeldin, repealed the so-called Endangerment Finding. This is one of the largest deregulation measures in recent U.S. history.
Legally, the move primarily deregulates the EPA framework. It is not an executive order or a law passed by Congress.

One of the most visible actions after the U.S. Senate failed to pass the House version of a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security this week was Democrats swiftly hightailing it out of Washington, D.C., and heading to Europe for the 62nd Munich Security Conference. Senate Dems were not the only ones eagar to make an appearance at the yearly conference, though, and there's a simple reason for that. In its report, CNN describes the European gathering as a regular pit stop for "politicians to test the foreign policy waters and elevate their own profiles on the international stage ahead of White House runs."
How Did They Think Open Borders Would End?

Could Democrats and the media tell us their plan to get rid of the10 million illegal immigrants President Biden let in? Because I'm getting the sense that they don't have one. (snip.) On CNN recently, Oklahoma City's Republican Mayor, David Holt, made the amazingly stupid point that, "we have enforced immigration law law in this country for over a century and ICE has existed for over two decades and we have never seen this type of chaos in the streets of our cities." I can only assume that Holt was snookered for the entirety of the Biden administration. Also since he was born.

A Republican congressman vying for Donald Trump's endorsement has been caught inflating claims that his premature son spent 'months fighting for his life' in intensive care to explain the worst voting attendance record of any GOP member.
Texas representative Wesley Hunt missed 77 votes in 2025, nearly 10 times as many as his colleagues and more than any other Republican, GovTrack shows....Hunt cast a provisional ballot on November 4, 2016, but it was not counted because he was not registered to vote at the time.

The anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birthday was February 12. Since we now celebrate Presidents’ Day in memory of all our deceased presidents, Americans did not pause for a moment to remember Lincoln. This is very sad, given what Lincoln said that nullifies our contemporary outpouring of anti-White racism.
Going to… California?

In the wake of the Democrats’ successful flipping of a long-held GOP Texas state senate seat, one that President Trump won handily in 2024, many pundits expressed opinions about what happened and who was culpable (Republicans) or commendable (Democrats) for it.(snip) the pressing question remained: is this a palpable sign that the Democrats’ “Long Game” is beginning to turn red Texas purple? Some thought “yes.” Some thought “no.” I thought of California. California is America’s most populous state and arguably also the most Democrat. Along with New York, it is a cornerstone state of the modern Democrat Party. Texas is the second most populous state and arguably the most Republican.
