Conservative: Beijing Wins in TikTok Deal
The new TikTok deal allows China’s ByteDance to keep 19.9% of the company, gripes National Review’s Jim Geraghty, a “complete violation of the law” that aimed to force a total sale.
This is “selling out American national security interests,” since it still lets Beijing use the app “to spread anti-American propaganda and suppress criticism of the regime in Beijing.”
Any “deal that merely has the U.S. ‘license’ the algorithm doesn’t address the heart of the problem,” as “licensing is not ownership and monitoring is not control.”
This deal “may sound like a compromise, but it is in fact a capitulation.”
Cuba by December?
8 replies
In case you missed it this week, the Wall Street Journal came out with an "exclusive," stating that the Donald Trump administration's goal is regime change in Cuba by the end of the year. It claims that, "emboldened" by the capture of Nicolás Maduro, the administration is looking for people within the current Cuban "government" who might be willing to turn on the Commies and negotiate or facilitate a deal that would lead to a transition in power. In other words, those who see the writing on the wall — that without Maduro's regime sending them oil, Cuba is a failed state.

This week, the New York Times published an article called "Americans Are Turning Against Gay People," and if you're wondering whether the paper has completely lost touch with reality, the answer is yes. The piece opens with some gushing about a show I’ve never even heard of — and I suspect you haven’t, either — called Heated Rivalry, featuring gay hockey players, suggesting that its success proves "acceptance of queer love continues to grow." The authors, Tessa Charlesworth and Eli Finkel, lament that this is not the case. "We wish we could share that optimism,"
Accountability is coming” to Minnesota, Attorney General Pam Bondi declared as Democrats try to shift public attention away from large-scale government fraud and towards the chaos they have created in Minneapolis. The promise comes after an ICE officer shot a person dead during a Saturday street scuffle while Democrat-allied activists were trying to disrupt a federal law enforcement action.
The shooting prompted Democrats to escalate their claims of murder by ICE and their demands that ICE leave the city amid the expanding federal investigation into what many Republicans say is statewide, migrant-enabled, Democratic-backed taxpayer fraud.
Democrat Insurrection Arrives on Schedule

One hard-and-fast rule that leftists obey is this: Always accuse political opponents of committing the same transgressions that you are preparing to commit. Accusing innocent people of doing terrible things is dirty politics, but it muddies the waters of public perception just enough to protect the guilty from accountability.
When Democrats commit electoral fraud, they accuse Republicans of trying to steal elections. When leftist revolutionaries burn down cities, ambush and murder law enforcement officers, and demand that state and local governments “defund police,” Democrats accuse grandparents and veterans of being “insurrectionists.”

Canada signing a trade agreement with China to permit the import of EVs is another escalation in the exploitation of the USMCA compact.
For the position of China, using Canada as a route to ship component goods into the United States is just a slight expansion of their current technique to avoid U.S. tariffs. However, President Trump is taking action immediately.
Noting on his Truth Social platform, President Trump announced that if Canada does effectively go through with allowing the import of Chinese electric vehicles, then the U.S. will impose a 100% countervailing duty against all Canadian imports.
The pandemic agenda, important to maintaining a healthy market for mRNA vaccines, is reliant on a general sense of fear and urgency to achieve success. Mitigating against this is the unfortunate decline in infectious disease and dearth of recent naturally derived pandemics. With COVID-19 fading and looking worryingly unnatural in origin, the pandemic industry is developing an increasing interest in ancient history, when its offerings may have proven more useful.
In the year 1347 the armies of the Kipchak Turkic confederation under the Khan Janibeg, who were attacking the Genoese fortress at Kaffa in the Crimea, catapulted dead bodies over the walls into the city.

And New Yorkers are paying the price.
On Thursday, the Public Service Commission approved Con Ed’s request for a rate hike that will result in an additional $615 per year in gas and electricity costs for the average New York City resident by 2028.
While bureaucrats are insisting that “law, not politics” is driving the cost increases, the truth is that over the past few years, New York’s Democratic politicians have made a series of disastrous energy decisions.

President Trump assured Americans that the government is prepared for the ‘catastrophic’ Winter Storm Fern as more than 9,000 flights have been canceled across the US.
Over 235 million people under winter storm warnings have begun to hunker down as the devastating storm is projected to bring snow, ice and frigid temperatures to parts of 40 states stretching from Texas over to the Carolinas and up the East Coast.
Trump urged residents in Fern’s path on Friday night to “stay safe and stay warm” and that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is ready to respond to the potentially historic storm.
Three Mandates for the Midterms

It has been widely reported that the Republican majorities in the Senate and particularly the House of Representatives are at risk in the 2026 midterm elections. This is hard to believe, given recent approval/disapproval polling on the Democrat Party. Last month Quinnipiac and other pollsters reported favorability in the low-to-mid 30s, with congressional Democrats hitting a record low job approval of 18% with 73% disapproval -- the worst since tracking began in 2009.Nevertheless, if the base of the Republican Party is not motivated to vote, there is a possibility that the party could lose its congressional majority.
Beirut has recently become a focal point for a growing network of Iranian-backed Iraqi actors moving money, securing assets, and embedding themselves in an opaque, cash-based economy. In December, Iraq inaugurated a permanent office inside its Beirut embassy, officially to oversee $20 million in reconstruction aid pledged during the Arab Summit in Baghdad in May 2025. Lebanese President Joseph Aoun praised the move as a “gesture of Arab solidarity,” emphasizing the return of Shiite residents to their villages.

When Renee Good drove her car into an ICE agent earlier this month, the left tried to gaslight us into believing she was just some innocent bystander who was just at the wrong place, that she’d just dropped her son off at school and wasn’t supposed to be there. That narrative fell apart fast. Good, we soon learned, was a trained anti-ICE agitator who was absolutely there to obstruct law enforcement. Now we're watching the same playbook unfold with 37-year-old Alex Pretti, the armed agitator shot dead by Border Patrol agents on Saturday in Minneapolis while confronting agents.
The talking points are already circulating.

inevitable financial chaos if alien existence

The Bank of England was advised to create a plan for the inevitable financial chaos that will result if and when world governments disclose the existence of aliens, according to a report. Former senior financial security analyst Helen McCaw sent a letter to the UK’s central bank urging the institution to prepare for the economic impact of little green men, the Times of London reported. If such a disclosure comes from the White House, Cambridge-educated McCaw projected in her letter, the revelation send shockwaves through financial markets and the banking system — and inspire general unrest amongst Earthlings.
In just one sentence, the Minneapolis police chief tacitly endorsed violence against federal immigration officers, and made it clear why the violence continues to escalate without police interference.
President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance partly blamed Minnesota authorities and police after an armed and violent protester ended up getting killed in a struggle with Border Patrol yesterday. After all, Minnesota Democrats are totally on the side of the criminal illegal aliens and rioters, and local police refuse to back up the feds. It seems Trump and Vance were even more right than we realized, based on shocking comments from Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara.
Close-up videos of the fatal Minneapolis shooting showed protester Alex Jeffrey Pretti was armed with a gun — with the agent who fired the more than a dozen shots clearly reacting to something that alarmed him amid the chaos.
It’s unclear if Pretti had drawn the weapon and was immediately disarmed, if an officer had pulled it from his clothing or if he was in the process of pulling it out when a separate federal officer was seen taking it from the 37-year-old as he was pinned to the ground.
Videos of the incident show officers shouting “he’s got a gun,”
The Countdown to Iran’s Liberation Has Begun

In my column last week about the situation in Iran (“The Fog of Prewar in Iran”), I wrote:
Many commentators, noting Trump’s oft-proclaimed desire for “peace on earth,” believe he has paused to see if negotiations with Iran might end the slaughter. I doubt it. Trump’s desire for peace is perfectly genuine. But I note that the last time he said he wanted “peace on earth” was when he was asked whether he had any New Year’s resolutions just a couple of weeks ago. That was mere hours before he unleashed hell against the Venezuelan tyrant Nicolás Maduro, extracting him and his wife —

Move on DHS Funding Bill After Border

Democrats just seem to want to keep ramping up the anti-ICE chaos.
Now, in the wake of the Border Patrol shooting on the streets of Minneapolis on Saturday, Democrats are saying they're not going to vote for the bill that includes Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding.
We already reported that there were likely to be issues. [Tweet]
Some of the eight Democrats who voted with Republicans to end the last shutdown also came out against the bill after the shooting, including Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV) and Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV).
Then Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) ramped things up in a statement he released,
Demand for sex workers in Davos skyrocketed during this year’s World Economic Forum — including one client who allegedly shelled out a whopping $114,000 for four days with five women. The apparent work hard, party harder attitude of the global elite was apparent in the voracious appetite for escorts in the Swiss town, where global leaders, big tech CEOs and moneyed magnates sent requests for sex workers surging, according to the Swiss dating and erotic services platform Titt4Tat.
At this point, it needs to be said out loud: the biggest obstacle standing in the way of real change and Trump’s America First movement right now isn’t the left. It’s our own cruddy partyDems do exactly what they promise… They unapologetically vote together, fight, and fund their ideology. But Republicans campaign like fighters, rage out on X, line up for Fox News soundbites, and then govern like terrified hostages. They tell voters one thing, then very quickly do the complete opposite once cameras stop rolling.
And that’s why moments like this matter…
Rep. Tim Burchett is furious. He just admitted something every conservative voter has known
Law professor Jonathan Turley had no patience for the political theater playing out in Minnesota after the Border Patrol-involved shooting in Minneapolis. In a fiery thread on X, he blasted Gov. Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey for their reckless comments and premature condemnations.
“Gov. Walz is again inflaming the mob,” Turley said of Walz’s press conference. “He is effectively declaring this to be the murder of a citizen who had a permit to carry this weapon. He is saying that the state not the federal government will control the investigation. He does not have that authority.”
The constitutional scholar wasn’t done there.
He said, “The state can clearly have a parallel investigation
