Unfortunately I’m probably going to be posting these every week for the foreseeable future since left-wing “activists” don’t seem to really get tired of domestic terrorism. If you missed last week’s installment, it’s here. Since then we’ve had several more incidents. Let’s start with a follow up to one I wrote about last week. Police...
Aw. You’ve got to give him credit for hustlin’ where no one asked him to be, but danged if there aren’t cameras to catch him workin’ it. Gavin Toothsome Newsom is summoning up his brilliant smile and easy peasy laid-back energy to do an end-run around the Trump tariff strategy. Hello world, the...
I had no idea that Bill Clinton signed into law a bill that imposed a large fine for aliens who defy a deportation order. Apparently, neither did many other people because the law had just been sitting there unused over the past four years. I believe this will encourage self-deportation. What do you think?https://t.co/gSC1FSbjay —...
Is this a win? Procedurally, it’s more of a pause, and may not even be much of a pause, as we’ll see. It may, however, send an important signal to lower courts, and to judges inclined to toss sand in the gears of the executive branch. Maybe. Earlier this afternoon,...
I don’t know if it’s because Eric Adams is frozen by his own current situation or what, but this should never, EVER be allowed to happen in an American city. And I would imagine at some point, either New Yorkers are going to get tired of it and demand something is done about these...
So…High School kids from two different schools get into a dispute at a sports event. It’s the sort of thing that happens every day because, well, High School. No punches were thrown, which is good. But one of the students is stabbed in the heart, which isn’t. According to...
It was only a few weeks ago that the company Colossal Biosciences revealed that it had inserted some Woolly Mammoth genes into mice to create mice with Woolly coats. 🐁 First ‘woolly mouse’ paves way for return of the mammoth Rodents genetically engineered to have shaggy fur and the...
Did the Supreme Court rebuke district court judges in a ‘landmark’ ruling yesterday? Or did they narrowly split the baby on procedural grounds? John wrote last night about the 5-4 decision to vacate a TRO by Judge James Boasberg that had halted deportation proceedings under the Alien Enemies Act. Today, Attorney General Pam Bondi...
Best: Mississippi. Worst: Oregon. The Urban League performed this calculation to create “apples to apples” comparisons between the states by normalizing age, demographic, and income groups’ representation in the sample. It is intended to measure the effectiveness of schools in improving outcomes vs just measuring the absolute values, which are distorted by vast differences...
In one of my posts yesterday, I went over how the French and German governments’ heavy-handed treatment – in some cases, outright persecution – of ‘right-wing’ parties and their members was backfiring on the establishment pretty spectacularly. It has to be maddening to the Brahmins of Brussels and their...
The past week has reminded everyone about two sure-fire ways to lose money in the stock market: Buying … and selling. That’s even more true when doing either in a panic. And that’s especially true when using the stock market as a casino rather than as a vehicle for long-term investment. ...
Dr. Peter Marks is being treated as a hero for standing up to RFK, Jr., but in any normal universe the bureaucrat would be treated as a pariah. Forget for the moment that Marks is hardly the self-sacrificing saint and expert people claim he is, and get down to brass tacks about why he...
The idea is not new. Even action against the cartels wouldn’t necessarily be new, nor would cooperation with Mexico’s government to fight them. The scale contemplated for a new war against the Mexican drug and trafficking cartels would be unprecedented, however, as would be the open possibility that Donald Trump might not bother to engage...
If it seems like we here at Hot Air have been writing a lot about Britain lately, that’s because we have been. Ever since America and our British brothers got beyond those little spats we had in 1776 and 1812, the two countries have been as tight as brothers. We occasionally bicker like family members,...
Closing the tabs … Ed: Hope you missed me as much as I missed you! === I understand why men like Oliver, who’ve consistently mocked anti-science people on the right, sold out initially. They didn’t want to blow up their careers. Taking fashionable anti-women’s rights positions was the cost of doing business. But it’s...
