It all started in Liverpool! We loved celebrating Global Beatles Day with our own arrangement of @theBeatles iconic “All You Need is Love”.

"I am lazy and do not like research"

Political operative Daniel Moraff, who recruited and only lightly vetted Graham Platner, was a prolific opinion columnist while a class of 2014 student at Brown University.

Among his columns:

In a 2011 column expressing concern that STEM majors at Brown might go into fields in which they would be supporting harmful foreign wars, he wrote that "there is the question of what kind of research goes on at Brown. This is a tough one, because the records are not readily accessible and I am lazy and do not like research."

In a 2012 column endorsing Jill Stein for president, Moraff asserted: "The winner of this election will be one of two terrible men." Voting for Obama, he wrote, meant "supporting the stranglehold that corporate America has over our government."

He lambasted Obama for his record on civil liberties and military conflicts. "If you vote for Barack Obama, you are throwing your vote away," he wrote of people in non-swing states.

Moraff, who is the grandson of the founder of Toys R Us, focused many of his columns on the corrupting influence of money in politics and power, such as within Brown's governance, and on lamenting that people accused of or guilty of financial malfeasance did not face proper accountability.

The difference between the two parties: Governor Tim Walz used his political power to keep an illegal alien who abused a 10 year old girl in Minnesota. @SecRubio used his to deport him.

So landing on Graham Platner, who has a Nepo job and a horrid backgrounds, means they really couldn't find any military veterans with blue-collar jobs who support Leftist politics.

So the mayor’s international commissioner tried to set up a meeting with the ambassador of a nation we are at war with, without telling him, and she hasn’t been fired? Or, like, arrested?

And yet, this will probably not stop any of the New Yorkers on this boat from voting for Mamdani.

"Israel killed more babies than all other babies that died anywhere in the world in any other way".

This mind bogglingly stupid denial of basic math was just post by an Edmonton city councilman. And relies on 🫵 to ignore all sense of reason.

For the record there are approximately 2.3 million newborn deaths in the world per year.

DSA's Ashik Siddique: Our goal is "to replace capitalism with socialism."

"That power is not conceded without struggle."

This is the Democrat party 'Big Tent' we keep hearing about.

[Homeland Security @DHSgov]

🚨Massachusetts opposed @USDOT’s emergency rule that would have PREVENTED illegal alien Michael Bon from renewing his Commercial Driver’s License. 

Now, because of this sanctuary INSANITY, Pennsylvania State Trooper Michael Pahira is dead. 

This tragedy was completely preventable.

I am from one of the small red spots. Almost never needed heat or AC.
With all the natural advantages of California, it's really quite an achievement to mess up that state as badly as Dem politicians have in recent years.

[David Burge @iowahawkblog]

Nah, it's basically a grift. They know there is a endless well of wealthy progressive idiots who yearn to to firehose campaign money at stylishly commie cosplay frauds, and are more than happy to pocket 10% until it blows up

Correction: She made her life’s work supporting and promoting the Communist party and used prison abolition as a tool to undermine and attack the capitalist West.

Which is why she did not give a hoot about prisoners in Communist prisons behind the Iron Curtain who were imprisoned for opposing Communism.

Why does every Chinese "innovation" look nearly identical to American innovation that occurred just a few years earlier.

Also, why does the video cut off before the rocket is secured & captured?
@elonmusk ?

[Frank J. Fleming @IMAO_]

I don't get what they think is going on. There was some massive, sophisticated conspiracy to murder Charlie Kirk by the government (or governments), but they had no idea about the ballistics of a 30-06 while a bunch of low-IQ, smelly losers online do?

[Taylor Rogers @TaylorRogers47]

This headline is blatantly false — as we told Politico, Freedom Fuel Network is a private company that is lowering prices at their gas stations to make filling up more affordable.

Leave it to the Trump Deranged Fake News to try to villainize a patriotic company that is doing a GOOD thing for its local community.

A Canadian who lived their “universal healthcare” system for 32 years just gave Americans the reality check everyone pushing “Medicare for All” needs to hear.

She didn’t rant. She showed the receipts:

• Nearly 200,000 emergency patients waited 48+ hours for a hospital bed last year alone.
• Almost 1 million Canadians now leave the ER without care because the wait is too long (up fivefold in some reports).
• ER doctors warn these delays are lethal.
• 5.9 million adults still have no regular family doctor.
• Specialist waitlists are exploding — median 28.6 weeks from GP referral to treatment. Some doctors are closing practices to new patients.
• Only 2.5 hospital beds per 1,000 people — well below the OECD average. Hallway medicine is routine. Patients die on stretchers.

Her line hits hard:

“We want universal healthcare… until we learn.”

She’s not wrong. Canada’s single-payer model gives coverage on paper but delivers rationing by queue in practice. Long waits aren’t a bug — they’re the feature when government controls supply and prices.

America’s system is also broken: crushing costs, administrative bloat, and real gaps for the uninsured or underinsured. We spend nearly twice as much per person and still have problems.

The solution isn’t importing Canada’s waiting rooms. It’s fixing supply (train more doctors/nurses, cut red tape), adding real competition and price transparency, expanding HSAs/direct primary care, and protecting innovation.

Be informed before you trade one set of problems for another.

@BaltimoreBanner Good!

Obviously, Schumer has friends at Politico

[Guy Benson @guypbenson]

Latinx was never a thing. It was invented by the sorts of people who recruited and “vetted” Graham Platner because he seemed to be what they think working class people are like.

[Noam Blum @neontaster]

First Ana Kasparian's Bosnia and Herzegovina blunder and now this. Every one of these people is at base level just stupid. It's why they're also all ideologically aligned - stupid people are easy to sell stupid ideologies.
