In January, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to withdraw the United States from 66 international organizations deemed “redundant, poorly managed, unnecessary, costly, ineffective,” or that were instruments of America’s adversaries.

These cuts are a double benefit. First we save the money, second, we stop funding adversaries who use our money to do us harm.

The climate farce was already approaching the point of collapse. Their scary predictions were not coming true. Their "solutions" were not working. Hard review of their "science" showed it to be wrong. There is only so long you can perpetrate a fraud and climate change was well past its sell by date, especially at the insane costs that went along with it. Trump has pulled the plug in spending and no one besides the US has the capacity to fund the lies so it is imploding. I am waiting for the big reveal as alternate science exposes the truth that the Left has been desperately hiding. It was all a massive scientific fraud. A lot of undeserved reputations are going to collapse. People are going to find out there wasn't really an existential threat and the solutions that were proposed were half baked and useless. Institutions that supported the nonsense will totter and funding for their programs will collapse, not only from government but from organizations and corporations as well.

These organizations were set up to fund the lifestyles of the international marxist enterprise that found a way to get wealth and power without directly taking over the world. They will all fail without our money, and hopefully, other sane nations will follow President Trump's wisdom and get out too. As long as marxists in America don't ever get power again, we'll be asking, "Who?" about WHO is a few short years. Bet!

The headline is optimistic but there are no guarantees that slicksters in the future will not find enough gullible politicians to scare. Al Gore took advantage of the madness but the people who believed him on nothing but his word are just as harmful. Let's not forget Jon Carry who used the scam to travel to Europe via private jet and dazzle the Euroweenies with our money. There are plenty of excuses left to attach to Climate Change, like volcano eruptions, forest fires, farming and space aliens.

Billionaire developer Rick Caruso took a swipe at Spencer Pratt’s long-shot mayoral bid — while doubling down on his scathing criticism of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass over her response to last year’s deadly wildfires. Caruso believes the former reality TV star’s political ambitions may be “well-intended,” but warned that Los Angeles can’t afford another inexperienced leader running a city of nearly four million residents. “I think he’s a very well-intended guy,” Caruso told The Hollywood Reporter of Pratt, a fierce critic of Bass who kicked off his mayoral campaign this week.

If you want to understand where American healthcare, advertising, and culture are colliding in real time, you could do worse than watching the Super Bowl. For decades, the game’s commercials have been a mirror of American priorities, from beer and cars to dotcoms and smartphones. Over the past decade, prescription drug companies have increasingly muscled their way into the field. What used to be an occasional novelty has become a full-blown marketing strategy, with pharmaceutical giants paying top dollar to pitch treatments to more than 100 million viewers at once.

On Monday, police announced they’d collected hazardous biological material that sent a cleaning lady to the hospital from a Las Vegas residence, reports National Review’s Jim Geraghty. The residence’s owner, Jia Bei Zhu, “is a Chinese citizen who was indicted” for selling unapproved COVID test kits. But Zhu apparently had also operated other biolabs containing transgenic mice and pathogens, and engaged in “unknown pathogen-related activity” while receiving “unexplained payments” from China. “Clearly, he wasn’t just running a scam” to sell Chinese test kits. And it’s “hard to believe” no one in China’s government “had any idea what Jia Bei Zhu was doing with his biolab”:

Another day, another report of massive fraud against taxpayers. Team Trump revealed on Friday that it’s found $8.6 billion in shady COVID-era loans in the Golden State — and is acting to blunt the damage. This, just two days after White House announced that JD Vance will chair a task force to clean up fraud-riddled California. Kudos to the White House for pushing hard to reveal, stop and punish fraud in a state with few controls on public spending. Vice President Vance and Co. should keep pushing, digging and holding perpetrators accountable; taxpayers deserve no less.

As year two of the Trump 2.0 presidency begins, President Trump faces a pivotal decision on Iran: pursue a grand bargain with the Iranian regime through negotiations or leverage military might to undermine the regime and bolster efforts by the Iranian people to oust their murderous government. Iran’s domestic upheaval presents both risks and opportunities for U.S. policy. Protests that erupted in late December 2025 over economic woes, inflation, and governance failures have spread to all 31 provinces, even loyalist strongholds, marking the regime’s weakest moment since 1979. Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s regime responded with a deadly crackdown, including mass arrests and executions.

She admits, however, that she told the authors to check information about weather and budgets. That sounds like it might have been benign — until you consider that weather and budgets are at the core of what went wrong last January.The National Weather Service predicted an extreme high wind event, with life-threatening winds, days before January 7. The mayor knew about these predictions and left the country anyway. Ultimately,

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced last week that she “expect more arrests to come” as the Justice Department is poised to crack down on similar anti-ICE insurgencies nationwide.

Respect is nothing more than an abstraction until somebody refuses to show it; that's when symbols clarify moments. Flags matter because they represent authority, sacrifice, and ownership. The World Health Organization (WHO) crossed that line when it decided to keep the United States' flag after President Donald Trump withdrew from the organization. That decision led to a rare action on the world's political stage: Somebody acted. President Trump pulled the U.S. out of the WHO because of decades of mismanagement, compliance with hostile governments, and repeated failures during global health scares. There are consequences resulting from the withdrawal: legal, diplomatic, and symbolic.

And shockingly, they are proud of it. “They’re the first generation in modern history to score lower on standardized academic tests than the one before it,” Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath, 43, told The Post. “And to make matters worse, most of these young people are overconfident about how smart they are. The smarter people think they are, the dumber they actually are. “They underperformed on basically every cognitive measure, from basic attention, memory, literacy, numeracy, executive function and general IQ.”

The attention of those less politically minded is focused on the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy -- always fodder for the would-be Colombos and Miss Marples -- and the Olympics. Yet this week saw some victories for the administration along with some serious unfinished business. The ousted dictator Nicolás Maduro seems isolated, depressed, and devoid of funds sufficient to hire teams of lawyers to defend him. Any claims he might have for immunity seem destined to fail. The evidence establishes he was born in Colombia; his claim falls because only a native Venezuelan is entitled to hold the office of president.

For too long, America’s retirement system has worked for the few, not the many. Wall Street insiders, wealthy elites, and big public pension funds have built wealth via the private markets – private equity, private credit, and real estate. Meanwhile, hardworking Americans are told to stay in their lane. If you work a regular job and save through a 401(k), you are effectively shut out from greater choice and investment access for your well-earned money. That’s not an accident. Elites – like Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) – don’t want this change because it erodes their interests and your opportunity for wealth creation.

Those who are better known due to their prior involvement with local GOP politics strike a balance between showing loyalty to Trump and respect to Greene, while newcomers have less hesitation about taking shots at her.
