DEREGULATION AS PROMISED:

From the linked article: “Our legacy regulations have applied basically anytime somebody builds a tower. And people have been trying to argue that they now apply to these huge constellations that are being launched by SpaceX, Amazon, and others,” a senior FCC official who requested anonymity told Pirate Wires. “They want to trap that entire economy under multi-year environmental review.”

All that should end later this month.

ROGER SIMON: Jews Should Welcome, Not Revile, the Rise of AfD.

Beneath the rhetoric and the accusations, they may well be fighting for us.

After all, it’s not Jews they are fighting. It’s not Jews who have been driving cars into German Christmas Markets and wreaking other forms of mayhem, from rape gangs to random killings, across Europe and the USA. Everyone knows who has, but we don’t want to talk about it or deal with it, even though we are on the eve of the 25th anniversary of 9/11. Everyone knows where the West’s problems stem from, though so many want to deny it. In fact, the reverse has occurred. New York City has a mayor who sympathizes with the Islamists, and Texas, of all places, has an epidemic of mosques with a growing constituency eager to adopt Sharia with all its misogyny.

Reading through AfD’s program again, I see people with the courage to face all this and a desire to preserve their country’s and Western Civilization’s traditions. Their fight is our fight.

Indeed.

WHAT A MESS: Texts reveal Katie Wilson’s staff calling the shots during Bite of Seattle mass shooting response.

Within minutes, Wilson’s staff knew they were potentially dealing with a mass shooting. Yet the communications show Wilson’s senior aides, rather than Wilson herself, repeatedly debating how the mayor and her administration should respond publicly.

At 6:36 pm, one staffer noted, “Mayors have historically shown up to mass shooting scenes when they stabilize FYI. Just wouldn’t want to draw a comparison.”

Another responded, “The stabilization part is the key.”

Hours later, as aides debated whether Wilson should appear at Seattle Center or Harborview Medical Center, one pleaded, “I reaaaaaaally think the mayor should go down there.”

To be fair, when Wilson did finally appear, she hardly covered herself in glory.

INDEED:

Historian John Bulkeley adds: “Many of these men are from the Iranian IRGC or other terrorist groups in the Middle East. There is absolutely no way to check their true identities, and the UK doesn’t seem to care. A few days ago, some men were seen loading weapons into a car outside a mosque in Ireland. If this report was accurate, then the West in general has a bigger problem than just Iran.”
