HE’S RIGHT, OF COURSE:
DEI has been counterproductive generally. By forcing people to focus on race, it has unavoidably heightened racism, not dampened it. If DEI were an antidote to racism, there would exist scores of studies providing the evidence. None exists. https://t.co/1onmyfdBnY

CHANGE: Supreme Court Strikes Down Louisiana’s Congressional Map in Major Voting Rights Ruling.
The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down Louisiana’s congressional map in Louisiana v. Callais, finding that the state’s second majority-Black district violated the Equal Protection Clause.
In the 6-3 decision, Justice Samuel Alito wrote the majority opinion, joined by Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett. The court held that the Voting Rights Act did not require Louisiana to draw a second majority-minority district. Without that requirement, the state had no compelling reason to use race in drawing its lines.
SB8, enacted in 2024, created a District 6 stretching roughly 250 miles from Shreveport through Alexandria and Lafayette to Baton Rouge. Louisiana drew the district after a federal judge in Robinson v. Ardoin found the previous map likely violated Section 2.

WHAT A JOKE: Iran selected for a vice presidency post at UN’s nuclear non-proliferation confab.
The United States and Iran clashed at the United Nations on Monday over Tehran’s nuclear program and the latter’s selection to be one of dozens of vice presidents at a month-long conference to review the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
The 11th conference to review implementation of the NPT, which came into force in 1970, began on Monday at the United Nations in New York. Different groups nominated 34 conference vice presidents, and the conference chair, Vietnam’s UN ambassador Do Hung Viet, said Iran was picked by “the group of non-aligned and other states.”
Christopher Yeaw, assistant secretary for the US Bureau of Arms Control and Nonproliferation, told the conference that Iran’s selection was an “affront” to the NPT.
The only non-proliferation the Islamic Republic understands is bunker-busters delivered by B-2.

Dear Jimmy Kimmel, listen to me very closely.
I’m a comedian. I’ve made fun of Jill Biden. I’ve made fun of Michelle Obama. I’ve roasted First Ladies before.
But I have never in my life joked about Jill Biden becoming a widow or Michelle Obama becoming a widow.

BLUE STATE BLUES: California agencies discuss what to cut as state deals with $35B deficit.
In January, the Governor’s Office projected only a $3 billion budget shortfall next year, well under the Legislative Analyst’s Office projections of an $18 billion shortfall in its budget released in November 2025.
Since that time, the conflict in Iran and an $8.6 billion increase in tax revenues have improved the budget outlook, but increasing costs in Medi-Cal spending has complicated the revenue picture, Palmer said. He noted nothing is final in the next version of the governor’s budget.
Newsom made it clear in January that he is attempting to solve the budget problems not only in 2026-27, but the following fiscal year as well, Palmer told The Center Square.
Meanwhile: The cost of High-Speed Rail is now estimated at $231 billion.
Ditching HSR would patch plenty of holes in the budget, but then what would Dems do for graft?
KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: Brandon Gill Gives a Master Class on Questioning an Abortion Ghoul. “Texas Representative Brandon Gill is the youngest Republican in Congress but he is, as the old saying goes, wise beyond his years. On Tuesday, the 32-year-old first term congressman provided a blueprint for all of the GOP elders of the village on how to deal with any vile abortion ghoul who is being questioned by lawmakers.”
WELL SAID:
Straight from the Comey playbook. What feds have always done. If anyone deserves it, it's this treasonous douchebag. He and all the others who pushed that Russia bullshit at Obama's behest, plus all of you in the media who regurgitated it, deserve more than that. https://t.co/ujPTQ1fmOb
