Funny Headline

From Not-The-Bee, a headline about the recent terrorist incident in Montreal: "Report: Female cop shoots rabbi outside Pornhub office in Canada while hiding from Marxist gunman who killed immigrant officer named Mohamed." 

Wilder: The Surveillance State

John Wilder's latest piece, "The Economics of the Surveillance State," discusses the modern police state and how we are constantly tracked: everything from Flock and Ring cameras, to our smart phones, to our computers, and, increasingly, our cars. And all this data is collected by private entities who aren't subject to the Fourth Amendment.  And is this for public safety? No, of course not:

Government and Big Tech® now hold detailed maps of where you drive, what you read, who you talk to, and how you spend your time.  Also notice that they don’t bother to use these to catch murderers in Chicago or gang criminals.  No, they’re encouraging that violence.

They encourage the violence that can be used to intimidate the populace.

Better Video Of UK Cops Attacking Crime Victim

This is a better video of that recent incident of Birmingham Police acting as accessories to the assault and battery of a young white man by a group of black men, and offering a bit more context. Now you can clearly see that the cops were already there and stood by while the blacks harassed and finally attacked the white teen; and then the female cop rushing past the attackers to slam the white teen to the wall, while the blacks just quickly walked away.

The female officers were clearly accessories to the assault and battery committed by the blacks. They weren't breaking up a fight--the white teen didn't even have time to do anything to defend himself--and completely ignored the blacks to go straight for the white teen who was still struggling to stand back up. It looks like they were waiting for an excuse to rough up and arrest the white teen.

Venezuela Earthquake: Socialism In Action

 PJ Media's recent piece entitled "The Venezuelan Earthquakes Exposed Something — and It Wasn't Just Shoddy Infrastructure," once again demonstrates that socialism is just another word for corruption. This part, in particular, stuck out:

... The Venezuelan people and independent journalists there were reporting that Team Delcy [i.e., the interim Venezuelan president] wasn't really doing anything at all, and, at times, even denying access to media and volunteers, stealing aid, looting, charging families fees for the bodies of their dead loved ones, and refusing to mobilize the few resources she has access to. ...   

And that is, in a microcosm, everything you will ever need to know about socialism and socialists. Beyond that, you might want to read the article because it argues that the window to try and stabilize the country is fast running out.

The LaGuardia Airport Bombing Of 1975

 From Slate: "The Forgotten Bombing of LaGuardia Airport." 6:30 p.m. on Dec. 29, 1975, a bomb left in a rented locker at New York's LaGuardia Airport detonated with the power of 25 sticks of dynamite. 

    ... A 12-foot-wide hole was torn in the 8-inch-thick concrete ceiling. A football field’s length of plateglass windows were blown out. Pieces of red lockers littered the parking lot. Water geysered from the busted pipes.

    All told, an estimated 75 people were injured, and 11—including Stamey, Patterson, Bull, and Musicaro—died as a result of the blast. The violence was such that, within minutes, 175 pints of blood were immediately shipped to city hospitals from the bank on Amsterdam Avenue. Corpses sat on-site in pine boxes before transport to the medical examiner’s office. There was an account of a human head resting on a window ledge, and puddles of blood soaking the island next to the parking lot. “The explosion ripped upwards and outwards,” reported CBS News’ Ike Pappas the next evening, with the deceased “caught in the crossfire of glass and metal that sheared off limbs and tore through bodies.”

    It was, recalled the EMS dispatcher on duty that night in Queens, “a horror.”

The investigation that followed was the largest investigation run by the NYPD at that time, augmented by hundreds of agents from the FBI's New York field office and agents from the ATF. Although there was some suspicion cast on a Croat named Zvonko Bušić, his wife, Julienne, who were involved in a hijacking and bomb incident in 1976, investigators concluded that they were not involved in the 1975 bombing. The case is still unsolved today.

    Oddly, however, the incident has largely been forgotten. According to the author of the article:

    Now, more than half a century later, it’s as if the bombing never happened. After extensive research, I could not find so much as a marker, on-site or elsewhere, commemorating the lives lost. When I tell people about it—even those old enough to have lived through the event—I’m greeted with shock that such violence could escape their memory. New Yorkers have a shared consciousness; talk to someone who’s lived here long enough, and they’ll tell you stories about Etan Patz’s disappearance or David Berkowitz’s murder spree. The LaGuardia bombing isn’t part of our collective memory.

    But it ought to be. In an effort to reconstruct the story of what happened that winter night, I’ve spoken to people close to the event, including survivors, family members of victims, and investigators. No one had contacted them about the bombing for decades, including the investigating agencies. When I began leaving messages for them, one survivor wondered if the phone call was a prank. 

 It hasn't been completely forgotten. CBS posted original new footage of the story to YouTube about 6 months ago. And in December 2025, A&E published an article entitled, "What It Would Take to Figure Out Who Committed the LaGuardia Airport Bombing After 50 Years." 

Some Companies Facing AI Woes

Some interesting changes to the AI landscape. You may have noticed reports last week that Ford Motor Corporation was forced to rehire 300 engineers when it learned that they actually couldn't be replaced by AI

    "Mistakenly, we thought that by just introducing artificial intelligence and adjusting the design requirements that we had, that that would produce a high-quality product," said Charles Poon, VP of vehicle hardware engineering, said in a press briefing, according to The Verge. 

    Additionally, Bloomberg reported Poon saying on a press call that artificial intelligence is a "fantastic tool," but only as good as the information you use to train it. 

    "Over prior years, we didn't pay as much attention as we should have to the experience of our most knowledgeable engineers that have been with us through many product cycles," Bloomberg reported him saying. "Mistakenly, we thought that by just introducing artificial intelligence and ingesting the design requirements that we had, that would produce a high quality product."   
   

Ford isn't the only company having second thoughts about AI. CNBC reports that "[o]ther companies that have walked back their hiring plans to focus more on human capital include Commonwealth Bank of Australia and software giant IBM."

    These examples echo views presented by analysts that making employees redundant while using more AI may not necessarily offer the best route to business growth.

    “Budgeting on ‘tech to replace humans’ without investing in training or upskilling left teams unprepared to leverage AI,” according to a report by Intuition Labs. “Notably, among companies pushing automation, many later ‘regretted’ layoffs, having cut the very people needed to oversee AI,” it added.

    According to a report by Orgvue, 39% of business leaders made employees redundant due to AI deployment. However, among that number, 55% admit wrong decisions about those redundancies were made. 
 

    And then there are the unforeseen costs for heavy use of AI. Forbes reports that "AI Costs More Than The People It Replaced." That article relates:

    Something odd is happening in the tech world right now: the technology that was supposed to make human labour obsolete is, at this moment, more expensive than the humans it was meant to replace. Companies are laying off workers to fund the very AI tools that cost more than the workers they just let go. The circular logic of it would be darkly comic if tens of thousands of livelihoods weren't caught in the middle.

    Uber’s CTO, recently disclosed that the company burned through its entire 2026 AI coding budget in four months. By March, 84 percent of Uber's engineers had adopted Claude Code, and roughly 70 percent of committed code now originates with AI. The usage was enormous. The corresponding value was murkier. Uber's COO and President, Andrew Macdonald, conceded publicly that token usage didn't seem to correlate directly with useful features shipped to users.

    Uber is not an outlier. Microsoft, which has invested approximately $13 billion in OpenAI and writes up to 30 percent of its own code with generative AI, instructed engineers in a major division to stop using an AI coding assistant because the bills became untenable. One unnamed company, per Axios, ran up a $500 million Claude bill in a single month after management forgot to set a usage cap. These are structural miscalculations about what intelligence costs when you purchase it by the syllable.

VIDEO: Master Ken Teaches How To Defend Against Someone In A Wheelchair

I'm tired of all the serious news, so here is some humor instead.

UK Police Have Learned Nothing

You would think that the police in the UK would have learned something from the the murder of 18-year-old Henry Nowak by an Indian migrant with a strong assist from the responding police officers. But no. As Gateway Pundit reports in its article, "WATCH: Group of African Thugs in England Attacks Young White Man – UK Police Rush in to Arrest and Charge White Victim, Ask People Not to Share Footage of Incident!", the police--this time in Birmingham--once again jumped in to help the attackers by continuing their assault on the hapless victim:

    In the video referenced, the young White man is clearly seen being surrounded and screamed at by a group of African men before one tackles him unprovoked. As he attempts to get up, another man is seen punching him in the head from behind.

    But instead of going after the perpetrators, a female officer rushes in and slams the White victim up against a wall. Seemingly out of confusion, the young man swings at the officer, likely without knowing she’s a cop, but instead thinking she was one of his attackers.

    The officer then began screaming profanities at him and placed him under arrest.

[snip]

    In another snippet of the encounter, the female cop drags the handcuffed victim, saying, “You’re gonna walk to the f*cking car you d*ck,” as he pleads with the police, saying, “Please, I’m trying to go home.”

    Another clip shows the cops manhandling him and shoving him into the car the wrong way. “Get in the f*cking car,” a male officer says as he shoves the man’s head down into the car with his back facing the front. 

Just like the Nowak case, this is another instance of the UK police acting as accessories to the crime. And their guilt is underlined by the fact that they requested people to not share copies of the video.  

Wilder: Latest Civil War 2.0 Weather Report

 John Wilder has published a new Civil War 2.0 Weather Report. In this latest report, he takes a look at the evidence that the elites hate you and want to replace you with immigrants from the third world. And, in this regard, he points out:

 And it is clear that all of the education, all of the rhetoric, all of the media are slanted to create the idea that the only people who can’t have a homeland, the only people that can’t belong are white people.  This is now becoming noticed.  When commentators as mainstream as Matt Walsh are freed to X® about it, well, you can tell that the hour is short.
