Perhaps could start by treating schoolkids w respect. Indiana school start times, as portrayed by the media (top) and a House Speaker (middle), both vastly different from on-the-ground reality (bottom).

Kinda reads like a draft obituary, doesn't it? Because it is.

While the world watches the war, the Islamic Republic of Iran hanged a 19-year-old boy today. His name is Erfan Esfandiari and he was his parents' only child. He did not kill anyone. He did not carry a weapon. His crime, according to the Islamic Republic, was opening a door. Sheltering protesters who were running from security forces. That was enough to send him to the gallows. Erfan was one of 12 young men in the Alikhani Square case in Isfahan, arrested during the January 2026 uprising. Yesterday, all 12 were moved to quarantine. Today, the Islamic Republic hanged him. This is a government that is so terrified of a generation that refuses to be silent, that it executes teenagers for the act of compassion. Say his name. Because the regime is already trying to erase him. Because his mother and father are left with nothing, not even the right to grieve loudly.

Sanity prevails.

Islam in Iran: Muslim husband smiles with his child bride’s severed head in public. Mona Heidari was sold by her Muslim father at age 12 into a forced marriage with a monster. Her Muslim husband beat her if she failed to satisfy him sexually, feed him, or remain silent. He subjected her to inhumane abuse and torture, enabled by Islamic authority. He tortured, raped, and inflicted sadistic violence on her, calling it marriage. She fell into depression shortly after the arranged marriage. At age 17, severely depressed and broken, unable to please him, she sought divorce and escape from Iran. He called his Muslim brother to punish her for disobedience. They tied her hands and feet and tortured her to inflict maximum pain, ignoring her cries for mercy. No one called the police. In Iran under Islamic law, husbands are required to beat wives for discipline. During the prolonged torment, the brothers mutilated her living body. Once she was too weak to resist, the enraged husband beheaded her. He then paraded her severed head through Ahvaz streets to restore family honor, showing pride. Like many child brides in Iran and the Muslim world, Mona endured inhumane treatment from her husband and family, who knew of her suffering but blamed her for failing to obey. Thousands of women in the Middle East and Asia are murdered yearly in “honor” killings—executions for dishonoring families or challenging male dominance. Muslims may view these Islamic practices as justice fitting the will of Allah. In the civilized world, they are crimes against humanity, women, and human dignity. Western leaders must not sacrifice women’s rights for political survival. Migrants seeking Western settlement must reject Islam’s Sharia laws or face asylum rejection. This is not a “cultural difference.” This is barbarism enabled by Islamic doctrine. The West has no obligation to import or tolerate systems that treat women and girls as property to be bought, raped, tortured, and murdered.

Flashback: Al Jazeera’s TV host got absolutely destroyed by a fearless female Arab psychiatrist, Wafa Sultan. This brave woman shattered every rule of political correctness and slammed the entire Muslim world for its “Middle Ages mentality.” She looked the Islamists dead in the eye, the ones who can’t stop slaughtering innocent Jews, Christians, and other religious groups, and told them their violence is never justified, no matter how hard they wave their victim card as an excuse.

After all the sweet primary victories of the last couple of weeks, I remembered this song for some reason today....

Oh, Canada!

A farmer dies in April 2026. His son inherits the farm. The farm has been in the family since 1847. The farm consists of: 300 acres of grazing pasture, a farmhouse built in 1892, a barn, a milking parlour, two tractors of varying ages, a Land Rover that runs about 70% of the time, and a herd of 180 Hereford-cross cattle. On paper, the farm is worth approximately £3.2 million. This is because land near him has been bought recently by a London hedge fund looking for carbon credits, which has dragged the comparable value of every field within forty miles upward to a number nobody local can justify. In cash, the farm produces a profit of about £28,000 a year in a good year. In a bad year it loses money. The son also works as a fencing contractor three days a week to keep the operation viable. The inheritance tax bill on a £3.2 million estate, even at the reduced 20% rate, comes to approximately £140,000 after the increased threshold is applied. The son does not have £140,000. The son has never had £140,000. The son has £4,200 in his current account and an overdraft. The son sells 60 acres to a developer to pay the tax. The developer puts solar panels on the 60 acres. The remaining herd cannot be sustained on the reduced land. The herd is sold. The barn becomes a holiday let. A different family eats Brazilian beef this Christmas without knowing why the price went up. The Treasury collects £140,000. The land never produces British food again.

That can become fraud, civil penalties, exclusion, prison exposure under kickback law, and career destruction. But a health system can buy the doctors, put them on payroll, capture the referrals internally, and call the whole machine “coordinated care.” Same patient. Same referral. Same economic incentive. Different corporate wrapper. The health system does not need a kickback. It has payroll.

By 2050, the estimated total boundary area required for 1.5 million wind turbines is expected to reach 3.1 to 4.6 million square kilometers - the combined size of India and Argentina. Offshore wind offers no simple escape, either. While these marine turbines are less visible, they are much larger and require even wider wake distances, requiring an estimated 5 to 6 million square kilometers of ocean space to scale up. The total spanned area for solar is projected to reach 1 to 2 million square kilometers—an area roughly the size of Mexico, accounting for the mandatory spacing between rows to prevent shading. This massive expansion is driven by a global fleet that is already fast approaching that 1.5 million unit mark, spurred by an installation rate that surged by 40% in 2025 alone. Around 77% of this recent growth occurred in China, which now operates roughly 690,000 turbines. But as this capacity multiplies, the sheer geographic footprint is emerging as a major spatial crisis. Because turbines require extensive spacing - typically separated by 5 to 10 times their rotor diameter to avoid aerodynamic interference (the 'wake effect') - a wind farm typically spans 30 to 34 hectares per megawatt. Wind acts as a regional net, capturing vast corridors of geography, mountain ridges, and coastlines. This is the zone where migratory paths, scenic vistas, and radar lines are permanently altered. To be fair, the physical infrastructure itself (turbine bases, power substations, and maintenance roads) takes up a fraction of this space - historically measured at roughly 0.3 to 1.0 hectare per megawatt, or about 1% to 5% of the total spanned area. Yet, even when restricted to this 'direct footprint', the land permanently alienated for equipment drops to about 30,000 to 160,000 square kilometers globally, approaching the size of the British Isles. While wind farms allow for co-use like farming or grazing between the towers, the broader industrialisation of the landscape remains massive. Access roads cut through pristine mountains, subsoil concrete anchors are poured by the millions, and overhead transmission lines slice through the backcountry. Where wind spans a region, solar 'farms' completely monopolise the surface. Ground-mounted arrays strip away native vegetation, altering local hydrology and creating localised heat island effects. Solar becomes a structural blanket, entirely displacing ecosystems, sterilising topsoil and locking down hundreds of thousands of square kilometers under silicon and glass. According to projections by the International Energy Agency, simply tripling global renewable capacity to meet net-zero targets will require allocating an additional 600,000 square kilometers of pristine land to accommodate solar and onshore wind in the near term. Combined with the $21 trillion grid expansion cost required to connect these far-flung, low-density arrays to distant cities, this planetary-scale geological layer of industrial debris is fast becoming a staggering physical gridlock.

I handled Top Secret information only a handful of times in my military career. Every time I did, I remember thinking to myself "Why is this classified? Everybody suspects this is true, it's just common sense..." But then I remembered that the reason the data was classified was so that no one in the know would or could ever confirm or deny whether "common sense" suspicions were actually true. THAT is the power of security classifications. My point is this: it does not matter whether or not anyone has a common sense suspicion that stores of precision munitions might be depleted. When Kelly officially verified that suspicion at the individual munition level, he created a grave breach of national security. Prosecute this traitor. Remember when some submariner went to the brig because he posted a picture from the inside of a sub? This is far worse. Prosecute.

Definitely worth your time!

Karen Hao spent 250 interviews inside Sam Altman's OpenAI. Her verdict: we're being gaslit. Why no one said this out loud before is structural. The AI industry bankrolls most of the researchers who would normally critique it. → Hao interviewed 250+ people for Empire of AI, including 90+ current and former OpenAI employees. → "The AI industry employs and bankrolls most of the AI researchers in the world," she told The Diary Of A CEO. "They set the agenda simply by funneling money to their priorities." → In Kenya, she met Mophat Okinyi. Paid a couple of dollars an hour to review 15,000 pieces of violent and sexual content a month to train ChatGPT's safety filter. → OpenAI declined to cooperate with the book. Sam Altman publicly dismissed it on X. → It still won the 2025 National Book Critics Circle Award for non-fiction. Critique gets defined out of the job description before it's ever published. The checks come from the thing being critiqued. I've read every major AI exposé of the last decade. This is the first one sourced from inside the building. You can't audit a system by asking the people it pays. You audit it by asking who got paid the least to build it. Who, in your field, can still afford to tell the truth about the thing that funds them? Hao's method is the mental model most reporters skip. Always ask who's paid to keep the story alive, and who's paid to bury it.

46 wetenschappers van het IPCC hebben hun ontslag genomen. De reden? Omdat er niet naar hen geluisterd wordt, omdat hun meningen afwijken van het gangbare verhaal! Maar geloof me niet zomaar op mijn woord, hier zijn hun verklaringen: Dr. Robert Balling: Het IPCC merkt op dat "er geen significante versnelling van de zeespiegelstijging in de 20e eeuw is waargenomen." Dit stond niet in de IPCC-samenvatting voor beleidsmakers. Dr. Lucka Bogataj: "Stijgende concentraties koolstofdioxide in de atmosfeer veroorzaken geen wereldwijde temperatuurstijging... eerst veranderde de temperatuur en zo'n 700 jaar later volgde een verandering in de hoeveelheid koolstofdioxide in de atmosfeer." Dr. John Christy: "Wat weinig mensen weten, is dat de meeste wetenschappers die bij het IPCC betrokken zijn, het er niet over eens zijn dat er sprake is van klimaatverandering. De bevindingen van het IPCC zijn in elk opeenvolgend rapport steevast verkeerd voorgesteld en/of gepolitiseerd." Dr. Rosa Compagnucci: "De mens heeft slechts een paar tienden van een graad bijgedragen aan de opwarming van de aarde. Zonneactiviteit is een belangrijke drijvende kracht achter het klimaat." Dr. Richard Courtney: "Het empirische bewijs wijst er sterk op dat de hypothese van door de mens veroorzaakte opwarming van de aarde onjuist is." Dr. Judith Curry: "Ik ga niet zomaar mijn mening geven en het IPCC steunen, want ik heb geen vertrouwen in het proces." Dr. Robert Davis: "De wereldwijde temperaturen veranderen niet zoals de meest geavanceerde klimaatmodellen voorspelden. In de samenvatting van het IPCC voor beleidsmakers wordt geen enkele keer melding gemaakt van temperatuurmetingen via satellieten." Dr. Willem de Lange: “In 1996 noemde het IPCC mij als een van de circa 3000 ‘wetenschappers’ die het erover eens waren dat er een aantoonbare menselijke invloed op het klimaat bestaat. Dat was ik niet. Er is geen bewijs dat de hypothese ondersteunt dat een ongecontroleerde, catastrofale klimaatverandering het gevolg is van menselijke activiteiten.” Dr. Chris de Freitas: "Besluitvormers binnen de overheid zouden inmiddels moeten weten dat de basis voor de aloude bewering dat koolstofdioxide een belangrijke drijvende kracht achter het wereldwijde klimaat is, ter discussie staat; en daarmee ook de tot nu toe aangenomen noodzaak van kostbare maatregelen om de uitstoot van koolstofdioxide te beperken. Als ze het niet weten, komt dat door het lawaai van de klimaathysterie, die gebaseerd is op de drogreden van 'argumenten uit onwetendheid' en voorspellingen van computermodellen." Dr. Oliver Frauenfeld: "Er is nog veel meer vooruitgang nodig met betrekking tot ons huidige begrip van het klimaat en onze mogelijkheden om het te modelleren." Dr. Peter Dietze: "Door gebruik te maken van een gebrekkig werveldiffusiemodel heeft het IPCC de toekomstige opname van koolstofdioxide door de oceanen ernstig onderschat." Dr. John Everett: "Het is tijd voor een realiteitscheck. De oceanen en kustgebieden zijn veel warmer en kouder geweest dan wordt voorspeld in de huidige klimaatveranderingsscenario's. Ik heb het IPCC en recentere wetenschappelijke literatuur bestudeerd en ben van mening dat er geen probleem is met toenemende verzuring, zelfs niet tot de onwaarschijnlijke niveaus in de meest gebruikte IPCC-scenario's."

Spirit Airlines died tonight at the hands of the socialist crusader, Elizabeth Warren She must be so proud to add another casket to her achievements. Tonight at 3am, Spirit turns off the lights. 14,000 jobs gone. 30+ smaller airports lose service. JetBlue offered $3.8 BILLION in cash to buy Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, flight attendants union, literally everyone voted yes. The combined company would have held 9% of the US market against a Big 4 that already owned 80%. For anyone who understands numbers: 9% isn’t a monopoly against 80%. Warren said no. She wrote letters. She pressured Buttigieg. Biden’s DOJ sued. A federal judge killed the deal in January 2024. Her argument: the merger would cost consumers $1 billion a year. Now look at her collateral damage she dusts under the rug. 510 pilots gone in the months after. 1,800 flight attendants furloughed in December. 14,000 jobs in 2023. 7,500 last week. Zero tonight. And that’s just the people in Spirit uniforms. Catering goes. Fuel guys go. Baggage crews, gate agents, airport coffee shops, hotels and rental cars in 70 cities Spirit flew to. Every airline job carries 3 more on its back. 40,000 people out of work because of one woman’s moronic crusade against the market. And the math ain’t mathing. Spirit abandoned 90 routes during the death spiral. Fares on those routes are up 14% on average. Oakland to Newark: $135 to $288. Fort Myers to San Juan: $92 to $219. Kansas City to Newark up 66%. That’s reality. Not some BS number from a “study.” So @SenWarren tell me how this saves the consumer money? Cheap carriers in a market drop fares 21% across the board. Southwest did this in the 90s and saved Americans $68 BILLION over 20 years. Warren killed it. That’s what moronic politicians led by socialism do. Then with her own blind arrogance, she tweeted Spirit’s collapse is “a Biden win for flyers.” A win. 14,000 people are reading termination letters tonight. And she’s taking credit. This is socialism in 2026. A senator who’s never made payroll thinks she knows how to run a market better than the people who own and work in the company. She saved you a billion on imaginary paper. She cost you ten times that in real life. She didn’t protect consumers from anything. 14,000+ will go from working to welfare. She will make sure to blame billionaires, hardworking tax payers, AI, capitalism and whatever monster they will make up tomorrow hiding under your bed. Higher taxes. Fewer jobs. More expensive everything. She called it a win. I hope you enjoy winning.

#ICYMI NY State Sen. @ShelleyBMayer was great at our event yesterday on utility costs and data centers. Hear about how monopoly utilities and regulators cut ratepayers out of the process in order to gouge them.

Tell your Senator not to subsidize electric monopolies at your expense Electric monopolies love building electric transmission lines, whether they are needed or not, because the government requires consumers to pay for them—meaning a guaranteed profit. That’s why we need transmission policies that only require consumer payment for efficient transmission lines that lower our electric bills and increase the supply of reliable electricity. Unfortunately, several Senators have proposed a transmission subsidy bill that will enrich monopoly utilities and subsidize developers of unreliable wind and solar projects at the expense of consumers. The transmission subsidy proposal: • Makes it easy for the government to force consumers to pay for wasteful long-distance transmission lines that mostly serve unreliable wind and solar projects. • Makes it easy for the government to force consumers to pay for wasteful medium- and short-distance transmission lines. • Forces all Americans in all states to pay for wasteful lines that only some states want. Transmission reform is a great topic for the Senate to pick up, but it needs to: • Fix the laws that most delay permitting today—such as NEPA, the Clean Water Act, the Endangered Species Act, and the National Historic Preservation Act—so that efficient transmission lines and other crucial projects can be permitted and built quickly. • Create affordability protections for consumers, including: closing monopoly-enriching loopholes, imposing higher standards for requiring consumer payment, and adopting fairer ways of spreading the costs around.

What if the premise of the entire global warming crisis was wrong all along? What if CO2 was never the sole climate driver in the first place? This would expose a colossal institutional overreach driven by simplified computer models. New research (from Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, January 2026) points to a different master driver, the world's oceans. The study argues the geological thermostat is governed by calcium levels in the Earth's crust and seafloor - not by the atmosphere and not CO2. By ignoring the massive, natural role of chemical regulators of calcium levels, institutions may have created a mistaken narrative. They have treated CO2 as a planetary poison, ignoring its biological utility and the fact that it could have been the oceans all along - not the atmosphere - that is the master regulator. It would mean we’ve been propelled down a costly dead end, while ignoring 66 million years of chemical history written in the oceans. This isn't just a rock, it's billions of tons of CO2 packaged by ocean chemistry.

Dominion Voting Systems have an internet connected, remotely controlled "backdoor" that is an engineered feature and was demonstrated in Georgia along with its vote flipping capabilities that are undetectable, which flipped Trump votes to Biden. Tina Peter's forensic analyst @PatriotMarkCook goes through a live presentation to show exactly how it's done for Georgia state and election officials.

Melika Azizi is 18 years old. The regime wants her dead because she isn't afraid of them. ​While the world slept, they raided her home. While they beat her in Lakan Prison, she held her head high. When the judge handed down a death sentence, she didn't beg for her life—she demanded justice for the fallen. ​"How can I stay silent?" she asked. ​We cannot be the ones who stay silent while they try to hang a teenager for her bravery. Silence is a death sentence. Noise is a lifeline. ​ACT NOW: Save this post. Share it. Tag three friends who will help spread her name. We have to make the cost of executing her higher than the cost of letting her go. ​#MelikaAzizi #SaveMelika #StopExecutionsInIran #HumanRights
