EXCLUSIVE: California has created a shadow welfare system for illegal aliens. Free housing, cash, healthcare, food, phones, college tuition, even car insurance—costing taxpayers more than $10 billion per year. We went inside the system and exposed it all.

We should not sign any AI agreement with PRC. Remember when the virus escaped from Wuhan lab in 2020? PRC turned their back on any cooperation, violated agreements on: NIH contract; Biosafety protocols; World Health Organization access; and probably the Biological Weapons Convention. So....NO.

Easter Mass stop Mt Suribachi, April 1945. Fighting ongoing on isolated pockets and Kamikazes still targeting the fleet. At the same time these Marines raised their prayers their brother Marines and Army were landing on Okinawa to even greater losses.

According to an online study, U.S. companies in the last 50 years have created $30 trillion in value via public IPOs. In heavily regulated Europe, the figure is 70 times less: a paltry $420 billion. 50% of all venture capital funds go to the U.S.; 5% to the EU. #ipos

The Mets under the Wilpons couldn't afford to pay for stars. Steve Cohen, wealthy hedge fund manager, buys the team. Cohen and sportswriters say the Mets can now pay up for star talent. So what happens ? The moron POBO won't pay. #firestearns #mets #stearns #davidstearns

For years my liberal friends--many of them Jewish--argued convincingly to me about the extreme necessity for the separation of church and state on the grounds--which again I found convincing at the time--that it prevents the religious right from asserting its rigid control over society. But as I look back, it was a canard. In reality, the Christian Right was opposed to secular humanism being forced down its throat in the public sphere, which is supposed to be neutral on religion and culture. It was staunchly pro Israel and very largely against antisemitism. And look at what in emerged since the left has attacked Christianity at every turn: The progressive left taking control of much of our culture (the media, universities, entertainment); the broad acceptance of radical Islam as some sort of oppressed class even in the public sphere; the rationalization of its antediluvian "norms" ie Hochul hijab stunt, And more than anything else: The hatred of Israel and open embrace of antisemitism. It's an apparent historical oddity that really isn't that odd if you know history. That the far left would embrace radical Islam, which despises its cultural precepts (ie trans ideology), as a way to destroy western civ has happened in the past. See the weird coalition that formed during the Iranian revolution: Marxist students and staunch Islamists joining to overthrow the Shah. The Islamists then in purging the country of Jews, Christians went after the Marxists, and we have what we have now in that insane country. Take note

It's called IRREDENTISM.
A person who became a citizen five seconds ago is not in any way, shape, or form “every bit as American” as someone whose family has been here for centuries. It’s a self-evidently absurd proposition. Ilhan Omar is not “every bit as American” as a man running the country farm his ancestors bought and cultivated in the early 19th century. Zohran Mamdani is not “every bit as American” as one of John Jay’s descendants. Abdul El-Sayed is not “every bit as American” as war hero Jim Webb or as a Sooner who staked out land out West. Rashida Tlaib is not “every bit as American” as a boy who can count as an ancestor one of the Texas Rangers who fearlessly hunted and conquered the evil Comanche. Moving to New York doesn’t magically make you a New Yorker, putting on a dress doesn’t make you a woman, and a piece of paper doesn’t magically make you American. This bizarre need to cheapen what it means to be American by making it nothing more than a box-checking paperwork exercise is so sad and pathetic.

“So just by looking at the numbers, it really looks like the center-right government is getting ousted not because the 2022 electorate changed its mind about anything, but because the demographic composition of the electorate is different from 4 years ago.” Oh.
The elections in Sweden might be the first documented case when sheer demographic change makes the difference between two elections only a few years apart from each other. In 2022, the right-wing bloc very narrowly won with 49.5% of the popular vote vs. 48.8% for the left bloc parties, and 176 vs. 173 seats in the Riksdag. In 2026, it's looking to be 49 vs. 49.4% and 173 vs. 176 - a very minor shift toward the left bloc, but just enough to replace the government. The total shift in votes is around 100k, while the electorate grew by 300k, mostly due to naturalization (there were 280k over the past 4 years, though of course many of them are minors), this despite the fact that Sweden's center-right government sharply curtailed immigration while in power. So just by looking at the numbers, it really looks like the center-right government is getting ousted not because the 2022 electorate changed its mind about anything, but because the demographic composition of the electorate is different from 4 years ago. Some more immigrants got naturalized, some more old Swedes died, and this was just enough to tip the scales.

“On day one, when I become governor, we are no longer a sanctuary state.” Bruce Blakeman lays out two major pieces of his agenda for New York, taking aim at Gov. Kathy Hochul over migrant spending before turning straight to taxes. Blakeman says his plan would eliminate state income tax on the first $100,000 earned by joint filers. His pitch to New Yorkers: change the state’s immigration policies and put more money back in taxpayers’ pockets.

Trump's $5000 vote reward is just what the Democrats have been doing for decades. How do you all think the Democrats go 80% voting majorities the last 75 years in every large city in the U.S. ? Biden and the Dems gave the Teamsters $36 billion in 2022. #trump #teamsters #cspf

You cannot redistribute wealth that hasn’t been created. The welfare state is downstream of private-sector wealth creation. Innovation, investment, entrepreneurship, risk-taking and productivity create the wealth that governments can then tax and redistribute. Friedman understood this perfectly. The resources available to government ultimately come from economic activity generated outside government. A stagnant, over-regulated economy cannot sustain generous welfare commitments indefinitely. And that strengthens, rather than weakens, Friedman’s argument on immigration. His point wasn’t simply “immigration bad”. It was that open immigration into a system of extensive, unconditional entitlements creates a tension: the private sector creates the wealth, while the welfare system redistributes it. If immigration is predominantly work-driven, productive and increases the tax base, the economy can expand. If large inflows primarily access the redistributive side of the system, the fiscal burden and incentive problems increase. This is the part many on the Left simply fail to understand. Perhaps it’s naïveté. Perhaps ideology. Perhaps ignorance. More likely, in some cases, a combination of all three. They see the welfare state as the source of prosperity rather than what it actually is: a system that can only redistribute wealth that someone else has first created. You cannot endlessly expand the welfare state while simultaneously undermining the private-sector wealth creation that ultimately pays for it.

A belated Happy Birthday and shout out to actress Nita Talbot, aka Marya Parmanova on the 1960's classic sitcom "Hogan's Heroes." 96 years young ! 😃 Won an Emmy for her portrayal in 1968. Great chemistry with Bob Crane. Also on "Here We Go Again" and "Kolchak: TNS."
