A year or two from now when the stories surface that U.S. jobs have been lost b/c Israel is producing it's own munitions and systems for itself and int'l markets, remember it was forced to do so by the psychopathic isolationist right and DSA-controlled Dems. https://t.co/5SVwd6XNg1

Also, 10/7 made Israel serious about its defense in a way that not even 9/11 did for us.

RIGHT OF ACTION FOR TRANSGENDER SUITS: That bill known as the Chloe Cole Act of 2026 is moving up in the House of Representatives. The measure establishes the right for individuals who as minors underwent transgender surgery and treatment to sue for damages. Next question: Will House GOP leaders bring the proposal to the full House for a vote?

JUST SAY YES: Are You Serious? Virginia School Board Refuses to Drug Test Teachers After Classroom Fentanyl Overdose.

The Spotsylvania County School Board rejected both a proposal covering all new hires and rehires with direct student contact and a narrower version limited to employees working with elementary and special education students. Board members Rich Lieberman, Larry DiBella, and Lorita Daniels supported the testing requirements. Four colleagues voted against them.

Superintendent Clint Mitchell urged the board to vote no; at a cost of roughly $25,000 per year, he argued, the district would lose teachers to neighboring counties. His remarks, posted to X by local reporter Nick Minock, circulated widely on Wednesday.
…
The superintendent’s argument left Spotsylvania in a revealing position. The district could require a criminal background check, professional credentials, and fingerprints, but a basic drug screen for cocaine, opiates, PCP, and amphetamines was framed as an existential threat to the hiring pipeline. What Mitchell did not address was the incident that prompted the proposal in the first place.

In May 2024, a rehired second-grade teacher overdosed on fentanyl in her classroom at Spotswood Elementary School.

Mitchell doesn’t want to send teachers to other counties, but guess which ones will want to come to Spotsylvania?

LOOK FOR THE UNION LABEL:  The zombies aren’t coming. They’re already teaching your kids.

THE REAL STORY:  You have been lied to about tulips for nearly two centuries. Charles Mackay published Extraordinary Popular Delusions in 1841, and journalists have been recycling his tale ever since: crazed Dutchmen trading mansions for flower bulbs, a whole nation losing its mind, ruin everywhere. Almost none of it survives contact with the archives. Peter Garber went through the actual price records in the 1980s and found something boring and beautiful: markets doing exactly what markets do.

X-cancel.
