Excerpt from WSJ today. Looking bad for new college grads! Ouch! A cooling job market is darkening that outlook. In recent months, employers from Amazon.com to United Parcel Service have revealed plans to cut thousands of jobs. The latest is Verizon Communications, which, according to people familiar with the matter, plans to cut 15,000 jobs over the next week in its largest reduction ever. Companies say the uncertain economic outlook has pushed them to hire more conservat

OMG. People are worshiping Voldemort instead of the Baby Jesus!

Things aren't going great for Xi. Voldemort's instincts to negotiate with tariffs may not be so stupid. China deperately needs Americans to buy its good. We finally have some leverage. Momentum in retail sales and industrial production slowed, while investment and the property market continued to struggle, according to data released Friday by China’s National Bureau of Statistics. Retail sales: +2.9% in October from the prior year, down from +3.0% in September Industrial pr

Notice how you get all the info quickly and don't need to wade through a giant NY Times article which puts you to sleep? AI needs data centers to process the sheet! Lots of them! Big business. Which costs a sheet ton of money! They're going to be busy beavers! But there are big bucks (potentially) to be made

Below is an exerpt from Karl Rove's piece in the Wall Street Journal today. The Dem leaders who publically claimed they were in a winning position on this were and are delusional. They were also delusional to shut the gov down in the first place and believe the American public would not blame them. Don't believe me, check out the chart below. The longest government shutdown in history—and one of the stupidest—is thankfully ending. But the political warring over stupid idea

Breaking Rust is my favorite Country Band. They sing from the heart and have massive self awareness, especially for a computer. Oh, wait the fricken computer is running a scam?

Excerpt below from today's Wall St Journal. I have done extensive research (wrote a one line prompt to ChatGPT) and have decide to tell people I have an undergraduate degree from Princeton. Seems like the most prudent choice given the data. Harvard - 3.80 average GPA (2020-21 academic year) About 80% of students receive A's Approximately 20% of Class of 2024 had a 4.0 GPA Yale - 3.74 average GPA (2022-23 academic year) Roughly 80% of students receive A's Mean GPA around 3.7

Really? I hate to use the R word, but seriously? The progressives running the Dem party apparently haven't become discouraged. After trying unsuccessfully to throw some sheet that will stick to Voldemort they still have faith. Whatever Trump did or didn't do, nobody gives a sheet! Except the NY Times. Today's issue is plastered with numerous stories about the Dark Lord and Epstein. Wooooo! The new Epstein Files are no smoking gun The Spectator The emails are more revealing

One of the best videos on the subject I've seen. Big thumbs up.

The short video podcast tells the fascinating story of slavery's eventual abolition globally and in the US. I'll provide a brief overview with some additional context from the economist Thomas Sowell. Until several centuries ago, there was almost no place on earth that didn't practice slavery. At the time it was considered normal and not immoral. In fact the Old Testiment and Koran both continue passages directing the "ethical" treatment of slaves. How f-cked up is that? Th

Excerpt, below from today's Wall St Journal (black font). New tort reform legislation in Florida has brought auto insurance rates down 10%. Litigation filed also dropped almost 90%. It's also helped with property insurance which still remains sky high because of the recent hurricane damage. I did a little research below also (ClaudeAI). Auto Insurance: Clear Success Story Florida's tort reforms, particularly HB 837 signed in March 2023, have produced dramatic reductions in

Now you get it. Why Voldermort has sent ICE to Chicago. Who elected Mayor Johnson? Predominantly Black voters. Do most like recent illegals taking $300 million in government support that would otherwise go to their community? Nope. Do they support sending those folks back? What do you think? I know what Trump thinks. That's why he using ICE in this manner. And when he deploys the National Guard, if the murder and violent crime rate are cut in half (as was the case earl

Voldemort and Johnson continue to paint the Dems into a corner. They either go along or own the shutdown. Never pick a fight you can't win baby! Mike Johnson starts countdown for vote to end government shutdown — here’s when it could happen By Josh Christenson, NUY Post Published Nov. 11, 2025, 4:34 p.m. ET WASHINGTON — House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has summoned the House back into session to pass a stopgap funding bill as soon as Wednesday that would end the longest g

Schumer is either going to end up quitting or be thrown out. Either way his successor is going to be a progressive. The party continues to tack left ensuring independents have no reasonable alt. A younger Bill Clinton and a party who'd support him are sorely need now. BTW, the PredictIt betting market shows the most likely Dem nominees right now for 2028. Newsom and AOC. Shapiro currently one of the few only prominent centrists in the party (along with Rahm Emanuel) is fa

The Data: When asked to choose between two approaches to lowering crime in the U.S., a majority of Americans (67%) favor investing more toward “addressing social and economic problems such as drug addiction, homelessness and mental health” over devoting more resources to “strengthening law enforcement” (29%). Historical Context: Gallup asked questions similar to this from 1989 to 2010, and these also showed a clear public preference for investing more in addressing root cause

It's been almost 4 years since Russia invaded the Ukraine. From the start I've said that Putin will have the staying power to prevail and will be supported by the Russian citizenry. Looks like I wasn't wrong on this. All the mainstream media and politicos that claimed the opposite were...err...FOS? The Data: Since 2022, more Russians have said their local economy is getting better than getting worse, but net optimism has narrowed to just nine percentage points in 2025. Econo

C hina doesn't appear on this chart (East). To understand how bad things are there, consider that the fertility rate in most of their majority cities (Source Peter Ziehan) is no .25. That's not a typo. The nation's overall fertility rate is approx 1.0. Unfortunately, China's workforce (at least that creates 90% of it's GDP) are urban dwellers. They're in a sheetload of trouble.

Sorry, I had to show this scene from Men in Black. Incredibly bad taste. How long can it take to become a US citizen? For some immigrants, becoming a US citizen takes a few years. For others, limited visa availability and annual country caps mean waiting decades before even applying. Published Nov 4, 2025 by the USAFacts team There’s no single timeline for becoming a US citizen. For some, the journey is a few years; for others, it spans decades. Processing times, federally ma

I fricken knew it. I smell an erect rat from day 1.

Fascinating as usual. Different look at China's future and what we need to do if they do in fact start to go down the shitter.
