Bad Fortune Crookies: Chinese Electric Buses Get Busted

Everything from your TV remote to your city electric bus is constantly gathering information, and, if it's a big enough piece of gear, it might have a few extra bells and whistles built in for extra measure.  - Beege Welborn 
Not for your benefit - for Chairman Xi's.

'Hoax': Republicans slam Democrats for sharing altered Epstein documents to 'create a fake narrative' around Trump | Blaze Media

"The Democrats selectively leaked emails to the liberal media to create a fake narrative to smear President Trump. The 'unnamed victim' referenced in these emails is the late Virginia Giuffre, who repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever and 'couldn’t have been friendlier' to her in their limited interactions."

Hmmm. Which ones are controlled by government?

 


‘We’re Done Hiding’: Mamdani’s Win Supercharges Islamists’, Marxists’ Confidence

“This is the correct religion. … [A]ll of humanity needs to be a part of Islam, and we will not stop until it enters every home.” - Elizabeth Stauffer
It cannot be overstated: Zohran Mamdani’s Tuesday night victory in New York City’s mayoral race marked a watershed moment for both Muslim and socialist activists — not only across the five boroughs, but throughout the nation... 
One of the most revealing — and frightening — reactions came from an unidentified Muslim man who interpreted Mamdani’s triumph as nothing less than divine approval for Islam’s ultimate conquest of America.
In the video below, he told supporters:


"This laughably false tweet got 2.4 million views until I guess he was finally shamed into deleting it, sometime in the last few minutes.

State of Thursday: UNIVERSITY CANCER

Look no further than UC San Diego’s latest report. - Geoffrey Ingersoll
It’s an understatement to say the left’s complete capture of the university system has utterly demolished foundational concepts like scholastic merit, open inquiry and objective truth.
  • One in eight incoming students, meaning they’ve already been accepted into one of the most prestigious university systems in California, needs remedial math.
  • Of those, a full quarter of them could not correctly answer the question: 7 + 2 = ___ + 6
  • It gets worse when it comes to literacy. About 20% of incoming students were not writing at an acceptable college level and needed remediation.

Turning Point USA's Andrew Kolvet: "They Say Our Words Are Violence, But Their Actual Violence Is Mostly Peaceful" | Video | RealClearPolitics

"They said in their flyers that we were inciting violence just by being on campus and hosting an event with Rob Schneider, a comedian and actor." - Tim Hains
ANDREW KOLVET: It seems like it was a coordinated attack on a peaceful event. And you can’t make this stuff up. As you said in your lead-up, they said in their flyers that we were inciting violence just by being on campus and hosting an event with Rob Schneider, a comedian and actor.
The irony is just so rich — they say that our words are violence, but their actual violence is “mostly peaceful.” The university put the free speech plaza right in front of the entrance, so of course, all chaos broke out. We were funneled into one entryway into the venue...

 

You'd have to assume the dems had the goods for years and hid it to protect Trump!

Republicans Have a Year to Make Progress on Affordability or Republicans Are (Probably) Toast


I'm going to try to connect a few of them into a simple prediction: Republicans have a little less than a year to improve the economic situation or they are going to lose the House next November. - John Sexton
  • In short, young people are feeling a sense of despair. 
And that despair is in search of some improvement in their lot in life. 
  • It could be Trump who campaigned on bringing back America's vitality and manufacturing. 
  • It could be Mamdani, who campaigned on rent freezes and free child care. 
The issue here isn't ideological so much as it it is a desire to see things improve.
Last week, Peter Thiel made some comments about Mamdani's success which seem relevant here:
If you graduated in 1970 with no student debt, compare that to the millennial experience: too many people go to college, they don’t learn anything, and they end up with incredibly burdensome debt. 
Student debt is a version of this generational conflict that I’ve talked about for a long time...

It’s extremely difficult these days for young people to become homeowners. If you have extremely strict zoning laws and restrictions on building more housing, it’s good for the boomers, whose properties keep going up in value, and terrible for the millennials. If you proletarianize the young people, you shouldn’t be surprised if they eventually become communist...

Following the military's COVID-19 debacle, service members are still demanding accountability * WorldNetDaily * by J.M. Phelps

Following the military's COVID-19 debacle, service members are still demanding accountability * WorldNetDaily * by J.M. Phelps

For all the Trump administration's efforts to strengthen and revitalize the U.S. military following its disastrous, DEI-infected leadership under the Biden administration, service members are making it clear that real accountability regarding the military's highly controversial – and enormously damaging – COVID-19 shot mandate must be forthcoming for members' trust to be restored.

The many adverse effects linked to the COVID-19 shot have left service members feeling disillusioned. After all, thousands lost their careers, their rank, their pay and more, leading them to call for accountability from those who mandated and enforced the shot.

Data Centers at Risk: The Fragile Core of American Power | RealClearDefense

On October 20, 2025, a glitch at an Amazon Web Services (AWS) data center in northern Virginia triggered more than 6.5 million website outages, disrupting banking, logistics, and government operations.  - Macdonald Amoah , Morgan D. Bazilian , Jahara Matisek , Katrina Schweiker - FPRI
  • What appeared to be a software fault was, in fact, a warning about the material fragility of American power. 
Behind every “cloud” lies a mountain of hardware: transformers, copper cabling, rare earth magnets, and fiber optics. 
These materials anchor the digital infrastructure of the United States. 
  • When the supply chains for data centers and industry falter, compute slows, translating into degraded command-and-control capabilities for the US military.
In an era of strategic competition, digital reliability is deterrence. 
A single outage in a hyperscale facility can ripple across intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) networks, disrupting real-time operational efficiency... 
  • However, these private-sector behemoths remain perilously exposed. 
  • In the digital era, failure to treat data and data centers as national defense assets is a strategic blind spot...

Climate Alarmist Nonsense Comes Full-Circle With Threat of 'New Ice Age'

One of the huge bonuses to having racked up a significant number of years in life is that one gets an amazing perspective on things. - Stephen Kruiser
For example, I've been through a number of dire apocalyptic warnings. 
  • When I was a kid, global cooling and a new ice age were going to bring down the curtain on Mother Earth within 40 years. 
  • Before the ice had a chance to show up, fears of overpopulation were being spread. 
  • Widespread famine was going to do us in.
We're all aware of what happened next. 
When creeping glaciers and hunger hadn't brought about the end of humanity, apocalypse fetishists shifted their focus to global warming, which had a long run. 
Al Gore became a very wealthy man, telling gullible leftist simps that "Earth had a fever."...
Well, it's time for a little nostalgia. 
This is from The New York Post:
A key Atlantic current could be pushed to the brink of collapse within decades, supposedly ushering in a new ice age and dramatically raising sea levels, climate scientists have claimed in a controversial new study published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment...
If there is anything that we learned during the COVID-19 pandemic, it's that leftists will believe whatever the ChiCom scientists tell them...

Glenn Beck warns: Government reliance is a 'poisoned promise' | Blaze Media

The government shutdown may be ending, but it revealed something very important about Americans as a whole — too many rely on the government to survive.

And that is a very dangerous situation to be in.

“Whenever a society gets into this situation, history will show us a poisoned promise begins,” Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck explains.

With the Donbas in Peril, Europe Must Pressure Russia Now - Jack Watling
Pokrovsk is not an isolated battle. 
Russian forces are slowly turning Ukrainian positions to the north and south into “pockets” and are on the outskirts of Kostyantynivka. 
Just as concerning, Russian forces are using new long-range wire-guided drones and glide bombs to depopulate towns as they come into range, hunting civilians in Kramatorsk, just as they have depopulated the town of Kherson in southern Ukraine...
The tragic irony about the last nine months of war is that while international discussion has been dominated by the prospects for negotiations and cease-fires, Russia has ramped up the intensity of fighting...
  • The number of infantry in Ukrainian units is declining month on month, even if the total number of Ukrainian troops is stable...
  • But Russia will soon face its own challenges generating more forces. Since mid-2023, Russia has sustained the war by using volunteers who have enlisted in exchange for massive bonuses and the promise of large payouts to their families if they die. Russia recruited some 420,000 personnel in 2024 and over 300,000 in 2025—numbers that have enabled its relentless, if costly, infantry assaults. But the pool of men for whom these inducements are attractive has been declining...
