About this Episode
IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) An excellent pro-ICE ad ran during the Game-Which-Shall-Not-Be-Named. Meanwhile, the Turning Point USA halftime show racked up 25 million viewers. Oh, yeah, I think a team from Seattle won, but I didn't watch. Still in the last season of "Suits."
2) Elon Musk offered to cover the legal costs of any Epstein victims who came forward to "speak truth." DemoKKKrats reportedly seen at local Kroger Depenz aisles. Then there are the five stages of political spoogieness, as the New York Slimes insisted for years there was no blackmail going on over at Epstein Island Island when, gee, now it says, "Hold muh beer."
3) Trump says to DemoKKKrat Terror Party governors, "You want resist? I got resist for ya right here" as he did NOT invite them to the National Governor's Association dinner nor the subsequent White House working group. Why should he? So they can return to their pig sty swillwhistle funding troughs and begin counter preparations?
4) DemoKKKrats won another special election, this time in LA, in a district Trump carried by 13. That puts the last 8 specials at 50/50.
5) GA is turning into a rotten peach, as newly disclosed docs show that Gov. Brian Kemp told the FBI Bureau Chief not to investigate the 2020 fraud. These people do not understand that if this trickle of sleaze becomes a waterfall, Americans will shuck aside their history and character and demand these bowel-wrappers go to jail.
6) TX has sued a giant fiberglass manufacturer Global Fiberglass Solutions for dumping over 3,000 wind turbine blades at Sweetwater, TX.
7) Cackles had a rebrand attempt that failed so badly even CNN called it "cringe."
8) Florida's teacher's union was trying to hide its class syllabi and lessons. They just lost in court.
9) The House Intel chairman warns that there may be a pattern with the ChiCom biolabs that the FBI has been busting, and that they could be setting the stage for a new pandemic.
10) Pete "The Punisher" Hegseth announced that the Department of War will cut all ties to Harvard. Ouch. Put some ICE on that.
11) The Fourth Circuit Court just cleared the way for Trump to exterminate DEI.
12) How Tik Tok's algorithms radicalized soft-brained liberal women.
13) The Small Business Administration just suspended over 111,000 CA borrowers suspected of fraud and will pursue criminal charges against them. Once they got the money, however, the government will be lucky to get back pennies on the dollar.
14) A large number of military transport planes are heading for the Middle East. A few days ago, a Pizza Tsunami was reported at the Pentagon. Something brewing?
15) A federal judge ordered all Fulton Co., GA, voter docs unsealed by tomorrow. Dems suicidal.
IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS
16) About time. The Administration will not comply with a court order to provide due process to illegal Venezuelans shipped back to El Salvador. Pound sand, judicial jigglepickets.
IN CULTURAL NEWS
17) This is moving a little faster than even I expected. Now there is a site where AI hires humans to do physical-world tasks. What does AI do when there's a strike? Call in robodogs?
18) Anyone remember Dr. House? His famous line was "Everybody lies." Apparently, Ryan Burge thinks so too. He examines who actually voted vs. who said they voted. Big difference, and it tracks along with those who said they went to church last week. Of those answering a survey, 97% said they voted in the last election, but only 59% actually did so according to the Cooperative Election Study.
19) This is an interesting development. How do you get rid of "women's studies" and "sociology" departments? You tie student loan access to earnings after you graduate. Oh, and speaking of eddication, TX has set a record for the most students applying for the state's new school choice programs. Teacher's Unions are probably double-ordering razor blades.
IN TRANSOID NEWS
20) The Human Rights Campaign, otherwise known as the "Queer Lobby," saw a 65% drop in corporate DEI support. Good start, but should be 100%.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
21) Washington Compost CEO and publisher Will Lewis has resigned. Boo hoo. The Compost died in its own darkness.
22) VT's EV bus fleet doesn't work in the cold, which, gee, is about 60% of VT's year. Meanwhile, Jeep EV maker Stellantis lost a $26 billion bet on higher EV demand.
23) On Friday, Feb. 6, after I had already posted Today's News, the DOW hit 50,000 for the first time ever.
24) Irena Slav is not a tech expert, nor does she pretend to be. But she does a great job of tracking the stratospheric investments here by Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, and others (closing on $1 trillion) when so far AI has yet to make a profit on anything or to prove that it's substantially better than what we have. There is a law out there (Peter Thiel's Law) that says that a new tech must be ten times better than the old to effect a replacement. AI is nowhere close to that, yet its denizens are now claiming it will replace "software." Meanwhile, the energy sector is investing a tiny fraction of that money with far better results.
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
25) Cuba continues its collapse, closing beach resorts.
26) Green vanguard country Finland sees its wind turbine blades freeze as it lacks power. No mercy, no pity.
27) David Blackmon, the Rush Limbaugh of Energy, says the entire EV market is moving to a ChiCom monopoly because Chy-na will continue to subsidize these money losers.
28) Speaking of losers, the Hamas Murder Pirates admitted that 50,000 deaths in Gaza are in fact Hamas Murder Pirates.
29) It looks like a conservative won the prime minister race in Thailand.
30) Cuba says international airlines can no longer refuel there due to, well, lack of fuel.
31) The party of Japan's new conservative Prime Minister is set to win over 360 seats in the legislature. That is a landslide.
32) And speaking of Prime Minsters, though probably not for long, Mediocre Britain's Prime Minister Stuttering Kier Starmer's chief of staff just resigned in Epstein-related sludge. Here is how Jeff Childers in his great "Coffee and Covid" column explains the ramifications today: "The Epstein files have now claimed a British prince, an ambassador, a chief of staff, a Labour Party membership, and a seat in the House of Lords— and they’re not done yet. At this point, the files are doing more to clean up government corruption than any UK government ever did."
33) Maybe there really is a mysterious city under the ice, as the latest attempt to drill Antarctica's "Doomsday" glacier failed when instruments became lodged in the ice. . . or someone's hand!
34) Elon Musk says SpaceX is shifting focus from Mars to a lunar "self-growing city."
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
35) The radical website Discord will now require ID and facial scans of all users.
36) Jennifer ("What's in your wallet?") Garner has swapped Hollywood for her baby-food company with a new $1 billion valuation. Does this mean she won't be back in "Avengers: Doomsday?"
37) By the way, I saw "Shelter," the latest Jason Statham movie. His last two have been formulaic: a mysterious "working man" or "loner" takes up the protection/rescue of a young girl (never a young boy) and defeats a few obnoxious types along the way. Action is dramatically reduced from "Beekeeper" and as always much is in the dark so you can't see it. He produced this one (I give it a B=) so let's hope he learns.
38) U.S. women's skier Lindsey Vonn, trying to make a comeback from a serious injury, caught a gate with her ski pole in her downhill race, suffered a terrible crash, and had to be airlifted out with a broken leg.
IN MEDICAL NEWS
39) Sounds like something Iron Man would have in his suit, but South Korean researchers developed a spray that will cauterize bleeding instantly.
40) Trump continually exposes the anti-US bias in the world with everything he does. Now his Trump Rx lower drug price site suddenly has the Euros looking at raising prices because we will no longer subsidize them. Now tell me about how Europe is "so much healthier" than America when we don't fund their stupid healthcare. For example, as Jeff Childers notes, half of Switzerland's exports are pharma, and now Novartis and others are having to lay off people.
AND FINALLY . . .
41) India's tiger population has doubled in five years. No word on the population decline in neighboring villages.
