MUSLIM PUBLIC AFFAIRS COUNCIL TRYING TO INTIMIDATE MY COLLEAGUE ADAM MOSSOFF: There is nothing racist about the image in question (actual picture of her included below for reference), MPAC is wildly hypocritical about freedom of expression as they try to silence Adam, and this nonsense deserves to be Streisand effect-ed.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: International Olympic Committee Hits Back at the Rainbow Mafia Bullies. “Given that the Olympics are such a long-term goal, this is a phenomenal win for female athletes. If radical leftists had their way, any young girl who spent her life training for the Olympics could have her dreams crushed by a mediocre male athlete who decided to “identify” as female. They wanted a wholesale disenfranchisement of young women for the sake of nonexistent woke tolerance.”

BLUE STATE BLUES: Washington’s ‘Millionaire Tax’ sends luxury home listings surging 65% overnight.

Following the enactment of the new 9.9% income tax (known as the “Millionaire Tax,” or SB 6346), there’s been an increase in home listings in Washington State. Data from the Northwest Multiple Listing Service shows that the number of homes priced at $2 million or more jumped by 65% the day after Democrats passed the bill compared to the same data last year.

While the total number of high-end homes is relatively small, realtors previously told The Center Square that several clients listed their properties specifically because of the new tax.

The data shows that on March 12, the day after the tax bill passed, there were 53 high-value listings compared to just 32 on that same day in 2025. When the bill was first introduced in February, the number of listings was also higher than the previous year.

The numbers aren’t huge, but neither are the number of people in Washington’s new tax bracket.

It’s an easy call that SB 6346 will cost Washington revenue — but, hey, they’ll have fewer of those nasty high-earners.

#WINNING: Senate approves deal to end DHS shutdown without Democratic immigration demands. “The last-ditch deal does not include any of the demands Democrats have placed on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) — including that agents be barred from wearing masks and operate under tougher warrant requirements to detain illegal migrants. The bill does not provide funding for ICE or Border Patrol, but those subagencies already received billions of dollars under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act signed into law by President Trump this past July and immigration enforcement has gone on uninterrupted by the shutdown.”

WELL, GOOD: International Olympic Committee announces new Policy on the Protection of the Female (Women’s) Category in Olympic Sport.

Eligibility for any female category event at the Olympic Games or any other IOC event, including individual and team sports, is now limited to biological females, determined on the basis of a one‑time SRY gene screening.

Evidence‑based and expert‑informed, the policy – applicable for the LA28 Olympic Games onwards – protects fairness, safety and integrity in the female category.

More evidence that the social contagion is finally fading.

ROBERT SPENCER: Dem Who Claimed Murdered Girl Startled Killer Wants You to Know She Herself is the Real Victim.

One of the most revolting aspects of the terrible story of the murder of Sheridan Gorman was the reaction of Chicago Alderwoman Maria Hadden, who is, of course, a Democrat. Gorman was a freshman at Loyola University Chicago who was walking on the beach with her friends when an illegal migrant named Jose Medina-Medina approached her and shot her in the head. In response, Haddon did her best to shift the blame from Medina-Medina to Gorman, claiming that she “startled” him, as if that justified murder, and completely ignored the fact that Medina-Medina was an illegal migrant who should never have had a gun or been in the country in the first place.

Now, however, Hadden wants you to know that the real victim of this episode is neither Sheridan Gorman or Jose Medina-Medina, but… Maria Hadden.

Because of course.

I READ THIS A FEW YEARS AGO AND AM RE-READING. It holds up:   Christopher DiGrazia The Director’s Cut.

“I wanted a job. I got a murder.”

When makeup artist Toby Swanson joined the Fox Film Corporation in 1914, he hoped to sneak a kiss from the studio’s newest star, the seductive vamp Theda Bara. But when a scene goes horribly wrong, Bara’s film is cancelled and her dreams of stardom crushed. Unless. . .she can prove that what looks like an accident is really murder.

So together, Theda and Toby dive into showbiz New York, from dancing with a young Rudy Valentino to sharing the vaudeville stage with Sophie Tucker and learning lockpicking secrets from Harry Houdini, all leading up to a mysterious church crypt with a deadly secret.
