IT DOESN’T LOOK GOOD:
I’ve never rooted for a movie to bomb harder than this disgrace.
It’s not just a badly casted film. It’s an intentional subversion of one of the most foundational stories of our civilization.
There is nothing worse than the act of destroying something beautiful. https://t.co/3YevwHQs9b

THE NEW SPACE RACE: ‘Whatever Russia is testing, it’s sophisticated’: Satellites pass within 3 metres of each other.
Astronomers have observed two Russian military satellites passing within 3 metres (10 feet) of each other in an unexplained manoeuvre.
The COSMOS 2581 and COSMOS 2583 satellites, launched by Russia’s space agency Roscosmos in February 2025, performed the operation last week while orbiting at an altitude of around 585 kilometres.
The incident. which was tracked by US-based space situational awareness firm COMSPOC. has raised concerns about space-based surveillance and orbital collisions .
“This week we observed a complex proximity event involving Russian satellites,” COMSPOC wrote in a post to X, alongside a simulation of the event.
“This wasn’t a coincidental pass – COSMOS 2583 performed several fine manoeuvres to maintain this tight configuration… Whatever Russia is testing, it’s sophisticated.”
Russia has not disclosed the specific purpose of the satellites, though space analysts noted that one of them released a “sub-satellite” referred to as Object F.
They are believed to be part of a program involving “inspector satellites”, designed to test or perform surveillance operations of other spacecraft in orbit.
I’d guess they can do more than just observe.

LATE-STAGE STATISM ALWAYS COMES DOWN TO CONFISCATE EVERYTHING YOU CAN BEFORE THE WHOLE THING COLLAPSES:
Europe’s new tax proposals double down on wealth taxes, including unrealized gains, annual wealth levies, inheritance taxes, and even exit taxes on those who leave.
But the pattern is hard to miss: when tax burdens rise, capital and talent don’t stay put.

SEVEN WAYS WE’RE ALL EQUAL: Thanks to our long-failing public education system, few young Americans know the full story behind the Declaration of Independence, and in particular the meaning of those “inalienable rights,” including the one about all men are equal.
In a high-quality, entertaining 7:22 video produced by the Discovery Institute, host Adam Nieri uses Dr. John West’s superb “Endowed by Our Creator” and other sources to describe the seven fundamental ways in which all men are equal before the law, according to the Founders. Check it out and then share it with the kids, grandkids, neighbor kids, etc. etc.

THERE ARE LOTS OF GOOD NEWS, UNLESS YOU INSIST ON BEING BLACKPILLED: Too many MAGA people moan about what they are not seeing done while ignoring the incredible wealth of good news in their midst.

If The Times briefing about Miliband telling Starmer to quit is true then the PM has to sack him – which will precipitate open warfare in government and it's game on
If the PM doesn't sack him, there is an open rebellion against him and it's game on
Either way it's game on

Britain needs literal annihilation of the people who waged war on it from within, but electoral annihilation would be a good start.
