EVERY TIME I’M CONVINCED WE’RE IN A DEFLATING BUBBLE, I SEE A HEADLINE LIKE THIS ONE: CoreWeave beats on revenue and lifts guidance, easing AI slowdown concerns.

But then you go past the headline to details like these, and it looks like a bubble again: “CoreWeave has lost over 40% of its value in the past month, as investors rotate out of companies most closely tied to AI infrastructure. Rising interest rates have pushed lenders out of the market, raising concerns about ongoing access to capital. Some CoreWeave bond yields recently topped 16%.”

GERMANS PARTYING LIKE IT’S 1939: Activists raise Palestinian flag over German Reichstag on eve of Kristallnacht anniversary.

A group of activists raised a Palestinian flag over the Reichstag, Germany’s parliament building, on the eve of the anniversary of Kristallnacht, in a stunt condemned as unacceptable* by Berlin’s mayor.

The incident took place on Sunday morning outside the Reichstag building, the seat of the Bundestag, when a 22-year-old activist climbed a 30-metre flagpole, removed the German national flag and threw it to the ground before replacing it with a Palestinian one.

Two other men, aged 20 and 32, assisted him from the ground, filming the incident.

* Subject to change in the near future: Islamists have Berlin’s politicians in their grip. “The city’s mayor-elect has just admitted that she’s terrified of the very pro-Palestine forces that got her elected. There can be no doubt about what [Elif] Eralp as mayor would mean for Berlin: a new stage in the creeping submission of its leadership to Islamist and anti-Zionist forces. In November 2024, Berlin’s police chief made headlines when she said: ‘There are parts of Berlin where I would advise people wearing a kippah, or who are openly gay or lesbian, to be more alert. In certain districts there is a majority of Arabs who sympathise with terror groups and hate Jews.’ Two years later, Eralp, the person aspiring to the leadership of Berlin and authority over its police, is too frightened to name those who pose a threat to gay and Jewish people.”

MUH DEMOCRACY: Colorado Democrats plot to overturn the will of their voters.

Last week, Colorado voters passed several propositions that run counter to the state Democratic Party’s platform. Two of them, Propositions 134 and 135, address transgenderism by barring male athletes from girls’ sports and banning sex-change surgeries for transgender minors. The other two, Propositions 132 and 133, address crime by increasing penalties for possessing or selling fentanyl and making child sex trafficking punishable by life in prison.

On the same ballot, Colorado voters gave Democrats a projected legislative supermajority and elected Democrat Phil Weiser governor by nearly 28 points. And because punishing criminals and protecting children from the imposition of transgenderism are outside the Democratic Party’s priorities, Weiser is already considering how he and Colorado Democrats can alter those measures.

Speaking about Propositions 134 and 135, Weiser said, “We’re going to have to take a look at these anti-trans measures and what adjustments are necessary and appropriate.”

On Proposition 132, Weiser said outright that he doesn’t want to put people who possess or sell fentanyl in jail.

“We’re going to figure out what we do about that,” he said.

Top Democrats in the Colorado legislature are already working with opponents of the propositions to figure out how best to water them down or, more likely, repeal them.

The will of the people must be respected, except when it runs counter to Democrat preferences.

JONATHAN TURLEY: Mullin’ Over the Separation of Powers: Justice Jackson Again Stands Alone. “In Mullin v. Friends of Ruidosa Church, the Supreme Court just lifted the injunction on the Administration’s effort to go forward with the completion of a border wall through the Big Bend region of West Texas. The issue should not be the policy merits. There are good-faith arguments against the wall in such areas. Indeed, outgoing Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) wrote an op-ed against the project. However, the sole question before the Court was the authority of a president to order the construction and use of statutory waivers to do so. Eight out of nine justices voted that ‘the Government is exceedingly likely to prevail on its argument that the District Court lacked jurisdiction.’ Once again, the sole holdout was Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who did not explain her position.”

Why not? It isn’t like she was asked to define what a woman is.

WHAT A MESS — BY DESIGN:

GOOD AND HARDER, THE LONE STAR EDITION: Newly Elected Dems Waste No Time in Pushing to Transform Texas Into Virginia.

When Abigail Spanberger and the the rest of the blue horde took over government in the Old Dominion in January, they immediately set about repaying the gun control industry that supported them in their campaign, enacting bans on “assault rifles” and “high capacity” magazines, “ghost guns” and other home-made firearms, mandated universal background checks, expanded the scope of the state’s red flag confiscation law and so much more.

Texas Democrats were clearly paying attention and a sprinkling of the anti-gun legislative mayhem they proposed yesterday includes . . .

HB 606: Gun ban for adults under 21
HB 173: Outlaw transfering semi-auto rifles more than .22 caliber to adults under 21
HB 606 Outlaw all firearm transfers to adults under 21
HB 613: Universal background checks
HB 659: Mandate reporting to multiple gun or magazine purchases to DPS
HB 218: Red flag confiscation

Those are just a taste. And these are only the bills filed on the first day they could.

Republicans still hold the Texas Senate. Let’s see how much resolve they have.
