TIT FOR TAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO IMPROVE BAD BEHAVIOR:

No wonder Dems are losing it.

AND HE’S IN THIRD PLACE BEHIND A COUPLE OF COMMIES WHO WANT TO DO THE OPPOSITE:

UPDATE (From Ed):

Tweet concludes, “It’s not nothing to be right about things and to demoralize your opponents and make political life joyless for them, even if they ultimately have the political muscle to win.

DEMS’ DATA CENTER FREAK-OUT:

“We already have a lot of data centers in the United States. It’s not 1992. This is how most of the internet works.

“I think those who are opposed to the construction of data centers would do much better to focus their energies on good zoning regulations,” says Charlie [Cooke]. “That is to say, to make the sort of demands of the construction process that they would make of an airport or a factory or a railway station or what you will. . . .

“What worries me about this,” says Charlie, “is that these sorts of moral panics, when they capture the imagination, are quite difficult to dispel. And we need to maintain our advantage here. This is what we are good at. This is what we have been good at for a very long time. The United States leads the world technologically and has since the end of World War II. . . . We do not want China to overtake us in AI or in anything else.”

But alas, Bernie wouldn’t mind:

THE LEFT PROJECTS, ALWAYS:

B-52 FOREVER: BUFF Gets An Upgrade. “Supposedly the new engines increase fuel efficiency by 30%, the cost savings from which will actually pay for the upgrade.”

BIG BADDA-BOOM:

Still no official announcement on Flight Test 12, but the FAA published permission for May 12 and 13.

NOW THAT’S A 21ST CENTURY HEADLINE: Pentagon prepares F-35 for quantum computing threat. “The In-Line File Encryption Device is the hardware and software component responsible for encrypting and protecting the signed code inside the F-35’s systems. Modifying its software to incorporate quantum-resistant algorithms means replacing or augmenting the current cryptographic foundations with mathematical approaches specifically designed to remain secure against an adversary using quantum computing to break encryption. That threat is not theoretical — the U.S. government has been working for years through the National Institute of Standards and Technology to establish quantum-resistant cryptographic standards, and the mandate to implement those standards across government systems is now reaching operational military platforms like the F-35.”

OHIO FRAUD WORSE THAN MINNESOTA? Daily Wire investigative reporter Luke Rosiak is making nationwide headlines with his three-part series exposing “the most egregious government waste” he’s seen in his 20 year career. Luke worked for me at the Washington Examiner and the Daily Caller News Foundation and he is one of a kind. Check out this video he’s made of the hows and wherefores of this explosive reporting series.

TOO FUN TO CHECK: Kamala Demands Release of DNC’s 2024 ‘Autopsy.’

If this autopsy confined itself to other matters, such as messaging or organization, [DNC chair Ken Martin] would have published it immediately and used it to frame the 2024 loss and distract from the corruption at the core of the Democrats’ campaign.

The most amusing part of the NBC report isn’t about the autopsy, though. It’s about Al Sharpton’s advice to Harris:

She recently asked the Rev. Al Sharpton for his advice on her next steps, according to a person familiar with their conversation. Sharpton told her that she has nothing to prove, having been the first woman and the first woman of color elected to the vice presidency, according to a person who detailed their conversation. In her 2024 bid for the White House, brought on by the late withdrawal of President Joe Biden, Harris collected more votes — 75 million — than any previous runner-up.

Her legacy is secure, Sharpton told her. But he also admonished her that she should consider the possibility that it might be diminished if she were to run and lose again.

Did I read this correctly? Did the Reverend Al, race-baiter supreme, tell a black woman to retire from politics? Time to order even more popcorn …

So she’s definitely running in the 2028 primaries. Strength through joy! Brat summer! Or whatever the next slogan her army of consultants will be generating.

TEACH WOMEN NOT TO RAPE (CONT’D):

PORSCHE CRASHES:

Exit quote: “This is bigger than Porsche. It is a warning to every foreign company that built its long-term growth assumptions around China. Because the old China growth model is breaking down in real time. Consumer confidence has weakened. Property wealth has deteriorated.”
