No one would be pushing the Get Out the Vote effort harder right now than Charlie Kirk. I miss him.
To us, it’s the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave.
To others, it’s the cash cow they plan to milk and eventually slaughter.

Mind boggling irony.
Republican Senators refused to pass the SAVE America Act, and we must now elect Republican Senators to Save America.

BREAKING: Nearly 10,000 Christians have been slaughtered by Islamists across Africa since the start of 2026 alone.
Another 4,000 kidnapped. More than 1,000 churches attacked.
Where is the global outrage?
The government can kill you off if you are INEFFICIENT??!!!
Without consent. Without notice.
This can’t be real, can it?
No need for nursing homes anymore.

The chances of being killed by a landmine delivered by a bear are low, but they are never zero.

On the night of September 5, 2020, two hundred and forty-two campers, children, and dogs were trapped at the edge of Mammoth Pool Reservoir in California as a wall of wildfire flames roared down the mountain from every side.
The only road out was burning. The air was so choked with pitch-black smoke and flying embers that every civilian rescue helicopter was forced out of the sky.
Trapped families waded chest-deep into the dark reservoir water and began texting their final goodbyes to their loved ones.
Then a deep, heavy thumping sound shook the burning pine trees.
Why could a California National Guard CH-47F Chinook and a UH-60M Black Hawk fly into a firestorm where no civilian aircraft could survive? Because Chief Warrant Officer 5 Joseph Rosamond and Chief Warrant Officer 2 Jeremy Goding were combat-tested military aviators flying on night-vision goggles and cockpit instruments through zero-visibility smoke that smelled like a furnace inside the cabin.
Guided only by the red glow of the flames and their radar altimeters over the water, the giant twin-rotor Chinook, callsign Brady 52, set its rear ramp down on the concrete boat launch while trees exploded into fireballs yards away.
A Chinook is normally configured to carry thirty troops. That night, the crew tore out the rules and packed one hundred and two terrified men, women, children, and dogs sitting shoulder to shoulder on the metal floor in a single lift.
Instead of staying safe after making it out, those National Guard crews turned their helicopters around and flew back into the blinding smoke two more times until all 242 people were rescued alive in seven hours.
When the sky turns to fire and the instruments go dark, thank God for the men who fly toward the flames.
Guy on a motorcycle on 287 during rush hour must have had a death wish.
They’re going to kill someone. Only by a miracle it wasn’t me today.
Stay safe out there.
Next step in the race to create Terminators.
One large step for AI,
leading to one last step for man.
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks.
By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time.
Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.
Absolutely NOT the Bee

Laken Riley had a Garmin smartwatch on when she was attacked
Her heart rate jumped to 170 bpm which told investigators that was when she was being attacked
It lasted for 17 minutes then suddenly stopped - that's when the animal finally killed her
So the next time you want to tell me about how unfair illegal immigrants are being treated I want you to set a timer for 17 minutes and watch it go by so you can understand how long that young woman fought for her life
A Mexican Independence Day celebration was canceled in Passaic in September because of fears of ICE.
Now Asbury Park canceled its Dia de los Muertos celebration for same reason.
Maplewood is trying to cover costs for illegals out of municipal budget.
NJ is crazy now.

Fun Fact:
Cowperthwaite Rd runs through the middle of Trump National Golf Course in Bedminster.
John Cowperthwaite did more for human prosperity than any development economist drawing a government salary ever managed, and he did it by refusing to do almost anything at all.
As Hong Kong's Financial Secretary from 1961 to 1971, Cowperthwaite ran one of the most radically free economies the modern world has ever seen. He kept taxes flat and low (the top income tax rate sat at 15%), ran consistent budget surpluses, abolished import tariffs, and blocked nearly every subsidy request that crossed his desk. When British civil servants demanded economic statistics to justify intervention, he refused to collect them. Not out of laziness. He genuinely believed that giving planners numbers gave them excuses.
The results? In 1960, Hong Kong's per capita income stood at roughly 28% of Britain's. By 1997, Hong Kong had surpassed Britain. That trajectory happened without natural resources, without foreign aid, and without a single five-year plan drafted by well-intentioned economists from Oxford. Hong Kong had a harbor, people willing to work, and a bureaucrat with enough intellectual discipline to keep the state out of their way.
Capital flows toward secure property rights and reliable rules, and flees the moment politicians start allocating it. Every industry Beijing picked as a "priority sector" during those same decades burned through subsidies and produced junk. Hong Kong's industries emerged organically, serving real demand, building real wealth.
You benefit from this history whether you know it or not, because Hong Kong's success gave the world a controlled experiment that still embarrasses every advocate of managed development. The control group thrived. The planned economies didn't.
Cowperthwaite retired to St Andrews, received a knighthood, and gave almost no interviews. That restraint was entirely in character.
