FBI Warns Congress of 'Major' Cyber Hack Involving China That Could Threaten National Security
FBI Warns Congress of 'Major' Cyber Hack Involving China That Could Threaten National Security:
A computer security breach in the bureau’s Virgin Islands offices, first detected in February, has been reported to Congress as a “major incident” that could threaten national security, Politico reported Wednesday.
And it appears that the Beijing regime is behind it.
Look at this plot of Global Mean Surface Temperature (GMST) and atmospheric CO₂ over the last 450 million years.
You’ll see it clear as day: periods where CO₂ shoots UP while temperatures drop. Other times CO₂ rises and temps rise too. - Dr. Matthew M. Wielicki@MatthewWielicki
The relationship is all over the place.
The relationship is all over the place.
- This is pretty much conclusive evidence that Earth’s surface temperature is remarkably insensitive to CO₂ changes.
- If CO₂ was the dominant driver, we’d expect tight, consistent coupling — not this messy decoupling over deep time...

Judge Orders CA to Pay $4.5M After It Lost Gender Secrecy Case at SCOTUS
Judge Orders CA to Pay $4.5M After It Lost Gender Secrecy Case at SCOTUS:

Justice Thomas Drags Birthright Citizenship Back to Its True Roots – And Exposes the Left's Anchor Baby Scam
He forced the debate straight to first principles: the 14th Amendment's Citizenship Clause was never meant to hand out automatic American citizenship to every baby born on U.S. soil, no matter the parents' loyalty or legal status. - Donald Trump For President
Solicitor General D. John Sauer laid it out plain and clear for the Court:
"The Citizenship Clause was adopted just after the Civil War to grant citizenship to the newly freed slaves and their children, whose allegiance to the United States had been established by generations of domicile here. It did not grant citizenship to the children of temporary visitors or illegal aliens, who have no such allegiance."
- That's the heart of it.
The Clause was written to overrule the infamous Dred Scott decision and secure citizenship for freed slaves who lived here permanently and owed full allegiance to America – not to foreign powers, invaders, or birth tourists flying in for a quick passport baby...

'Completely FABRICATED': N.Y. Times forced to issue several corrections after Trump official exposes deception * WorldNetDaily * by Nicole Silverio, Daily Caller News Foundation:
Helberg called out the Times on Saturday for adding "completely fabricated quotes" in its article, "Trump Sets 'Pax Silica' Fund to Reduce Global Dependencies," which covered the administration's plan to collectively invest in energy products, minerals and semiconductors. The Times issued at least three corrections after misquoting Helberg several times.

A woman on the Whatever Podcast just did what ten years of conservative pundits couldn’t — she buried the Trump “grab ’em” talking point with one question: “𝘏𝘰𝘸’𝘴 𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨?” - M.A. RothmanThe liberal girl across from her brought up the 2005 tape as proof Trump is unfit.
Rachel Wilson didn’t flinch.
She corrected the record first:
“𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵’𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘪𝘥. 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘪𝘥 𝘸𝘢𝘴, 𝘪𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘢 𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘩, 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘶𝘴, 𝘩𝘪𝘨𝘩-𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘴 𝘮𝘢𝘯, 𝘢 𝘭𝘰𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘸𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘭𝘦𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘣 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮.”
Then she asked the only question that matters — “𝘏𝘰𝘸’𝘴 𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨?”
- The other woman’s response? “𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘴𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵’𝘴 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨.”
- Not “it’s false.”
Not “here’s why he’s incorrect.”
Just — it’s a bad 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐞𝐭.
Wilson pressed: “𝘛𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘵’𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘦. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘵. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦.”...
'Not just absurd, it is blatant discrimination': Feds probe school district for making girls move out of 'OWN intimate spaces' when males are present * WorldNetDaily * by Jaryn Crouson, Daily Caller News Foundation
'Not just absurd, it is blatant discrimination': Feds probe school district for making girls move out of 'OWN intimate spaces' when males are present * WorldNetDaily * by Jaryn Crouson, Daily Caller News Foundation:
The complaint, filed by parental rights group Defending Education (DE) in August 2025, alleges that the Contoocook Valley School District maintains its policy allowing access to intimate spaces such as bathrooms and locker rooms based on "gender identity" rather than biological sex. The complaint further notes that "discrimination based on sex is also notably absent" from the district's non-discrimination policy.
The case for Trump’s tariffs looks strong a year on from ‘liberation day’
Economists’ lurid forecasts of disaster have not been realised - OREN CASS
The results have been remarkable.
The past year has also proved as disruptive to the discipline of economics and the overconfidence of its most prominent practitioners as it has been to supply chains.
The folly of tariffs was among their most deeply held beliefs, hard-coded into their models, proudly professed in every interview.
- Tariffs, they insisted, would lead to sharply higher inflation and much slower growth, a likely recession and millions of jobs lost.
- They would prompt retaliation and lead to appreciation of the dollar, crippling exporters and leading to further deindustrialisation.
But none of this happened.
A CALL FOR SENSIBLENESS, MATURITY, OBJECTIVITY, AND INTELLECTUAL RATIONALITY
There's palpable ignorance on climate change, but the odd part is ignorant people forcing the IPCC's apocalyptic narrative: - José Santos Flores Laureano
- Study anthropogenic climate change deeply, open your eyes, and don't be manipulated by climate change lies.
- Don't parrot media-implanted views.
- Use your intellectual freedom.
- And mostly, show respect for all people and ideas...
Gotta read this! "Public Education" is babysitting and days off??!!-----I would rather my child be in school.
This school year, K–8 students are scheduled for complete five-day school weeks just over half of all weeks; for high-school students, 22 of 44 school weeks will be incomplete. - Audrey Goodson Kingo
- The snow has played a part, but the bigger culprits are religious and cultural holidays, as well as staff-development days.
- There are 16 total, plus winter recess (eight weekdays including Christmas),
- midwinter recess (five weekdays) and
- spring break (seven weekdays, including Good Friday and part of Passover).
- Five of the holidays have been added to the calendar in just the last decade...
- There are also two half-days for parent-teacher conferences.
Each closure poses a logistical and financial challenge for parents as they scramble to find babysitters, tap their paid time off, ask their bosses for leniency, or enroll their kids in day camps.
At Hex&Co., a board-game café in Morningside Heights, a full day of holiday camp costs $170. At Private Picassos, an art studio in Clinton Hill, it’s $175. A day of camp at the Queens zoo is $150...
- The seeds for today’s holiday-heavy school calendar were sown by the city’s fast-growing Muslim and AAPI communities, which argued that a Judeo-Christian calendar isn’t reflective of a place where nearly one in five students identify as Asian American and an estimated 1 million New Yorkers practice Islam...
