This week’s major developments include a number of secondary explosions: government bureaucrats who censored free speech on internet platforms using NGOs as covers will be facing court action; the fallout from the boomeranging Epstein disclosures keep damaging the Democrats and their foreign allies; the media’s promotion of the moronic Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez only served to highlight that she’s is ill-informed and too lazy to prepare for interviews; and DOGE and Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent are making it very hard to keep hiding Democratic corruption.

AOC is identified as a moron, which may be giving the former barmaid too much credit. Unfortunately, on the political left, we never see any intellectual rigor. FTA: David Marcus concludes: “The scary thing about today’s progressives is that, unlike in the past, it has no intellectual wing, because its intellectuals study gender and anti colonialism instead of political science or economics. It’s literally just give poor people wealthier people’s money.” That's true.

"How Dumb Must the Press Be to Promote AOC?"
Well, they are all part of the same club and they all know the secret handshake. The press, for the most part, are as dumb as she is. They are being knocked off for the same reasons she is under attack, they are dogmatic propagandists with not the wit to make a convincing effort of it. 300 of them were just sloughed off the WaaPoo which indicates they weren't worth hanging onto. RIFs target the marginal performers. The reality that a big block was in the "climate" clic says that "Climate" was a marginal performer as well and not worth the effort. THAT is big news.
You might also note that while AOC is covered by media, her and her Squad are no longer treated as royalty ascendant. Media covers them because they have to write about something and the Leftist pickings are getting very thin. The problem is, every time that media decides to turn their "positive" spotlight on a Leftist, that person shortly is exposed as another fool/crook and they flameout. It doesn't bode well for a Leftist to be brought front and center because most of them are useless idiots, which, given focus, becomes obvious. The object lesson is Kamalalala and Tim the Knucklehead. The media keeps thrashing around looking for a competent Leftist like Diogenes trying to find an honest man; which was ultimately a futile effort. Everytime the media tries and fails, it discredits both the exposed idiot and the media itself. The obvious outcome speaks for itself.

Inviting Marco Rubio and AOC to discuss foreign policy at the same forum did not have the outcome they were hoping for. AOC was outmatched and obviously way over her head. Her biggest contribution was to showcase the complete lack of knowledge or understanding she has of the world. The idea that this halfwit thinks she should be President should alarm the rest of the world. The contrast was striking.

I’ll wager AOC has a closet full of participation trophies.

Clarice's best news was Elon and Administration figures releasing "The Dogs of War" on the corrupt. And on Valentine's Day. What a gift.

Who on earth would send Sandy to a onference like that? All we know of her college education was a photo of her dancing on a rooftop at Boston U. Yes, moron is a gross understatement.

Wow, now that the HHS database is on the net, with a 30% bounty on detected fraud, any smart teenager can become rich by just mining the data and pointing out some of the $1,000,000,000,000 fraud. So, the BOUNTY available is $300,000.000,000....or $300 billion dollars. Said another way, 1,000 teenaged computer geeks could each earn $300 million if they do a bit of work.
Even if it gets spread very thinly over 100,000 bounty collectors...they'd average getting $3 million each. Heck of a summer project for smart computer folks.

Gee, Sandy Cortez came across like....well, a tip stealing barmaid, way, WAY, WAY over her head. She's pretty dim, and very ignorant.....and she proved it in public.
