    IN POLITICAL NEWS   1) Here is a sober and sane assessment by Shipwreckedcrew of what Pam Bondi is doing and what her remarkable accomplishments are, despite all the Epsteinoid panicans. She will be remembered as a great and extremely effective AG. She just released the FULL Eppy file with no names redacted, over 3.5 million pages. I imagine there will be some late night reading for the pedos this week.   2) This is headed for the VA Supreme Court, but a VA judge put that state's obscene redistricting plan on hold. 3) Trump's administration just required absolute receipt verification for every dollar spent. This is a good X post on exactly what that means. Oh, and ol Elon's push for Medicaid data release? Elon wins. ("Finish him!")   4) President Trump will sign an executive order requiring Voter ID.   5) This is the way. Housing and Urban Development has launched an investigation into the Muslim city that is inherently destructive and divisive and in violation of civil rights.   6) The FAA is pushing mandates to require merit-based hiring and pay only for pilots.   7) From 2018 to 2024, the FBI opened 1,200 illegal probes into American politicians, journalists, religious leaders, and academics.   8) Fat Fani Willis is now potentially on the hook for $17 million in Trump attorney's fees and is wriggling.   9) A former team USA figure skater was shot and killed in front of a Starburqa by a convicted ex-felon.   10) Of course they are: CO has introduced a bill to legalize prostitution.   IN THE EPSTEIN FILES   11) Another resignation results from Eppy: the top lawyer at Goldman, Kathy Rummier. Then Dubai's DP World CEO, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem was caught in the Eppy Pig Sty and resigned.   12) Yale prof David Gelernter was suspended after his name came up in the Eppy files. He was known for losing vision in one eye and feeling in his hand when he opened a package (unknowningly) from the Unabomber.   13) Aaaannnnd . . . the owner of a popular school photography company was mentioned in Eppy's tomes.   IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS   14) ICE has a long term plan to turn warehouses into detention centers. Doesn't sound like Trump is pulling back in any way, shape, or form. So far, ICE has acquired seven of these babies. It's a $38 billion expenditure, so this ain't temporary.   IN TRANSOID NEWS   15) The sponsor of so-called "GayDays" (i.e., homosexual celebrations) at Disney pulled out, leaving the festivities in limbo.   16) Two more big "detransitioner" cases are headed to trial.   17) Goooooood. SpewMore is introducing legislation to make the homosexual rainbow flag a congressionally designated flag. This will have a big backlash.   IN ECONOMIC NEWS   18) Here is the story of Fed Ex's demise: it was sold to cost-cutting Indians.   IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS   19) Rubio had an amazing speech at Munich.   20) Irena Slav on the collapse of the carbon credit market.   21) US embassies are raising cash from foreign countries for the 250th birthday party.   IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS   22) AI wars are heating up as Disney sent a cease and desist order to Bytedance for a "pirated library of Disney's copywrited characters from Star Wars, Marvel," and other Disney properties. As Zero Hedge put it, this amounts to a "billion dollar movie in just one prompt." I know the Eppy files are, ahem, sexier (pardon the pun) but this is where the real 21st century battle is unfolding, of humanity's right to itself.   23) What's in your wallet? Snoop Dogg's credit card was declined while trying to purchase a cheeseburger and chicken wings at the Winter Olympics.   24) Ex-NFL star Tre Johnson, dead at 54.   IN MEDICAL NEWS   25) High caffeine intake is associated with significantly lower risk of dementia. So I should be safe.   26) A scientist gave himself brain damage by using a secret audio weapon trying to disprove Havana Syndrome.   AND FINALLY . . .   27) A policy of placing defibrillators in a TX city's neighborhoods has cut deaths by heart attacks from 10% to 47%.   Larry Schweikart (@WallsOther)   Rock drummer, Film maker,NYTimes #1 bestselling author   Link for Patriot’s History Vimeo   https://vimeo.com/40949423   Link to buy larry a coffee   http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Larry Schweikart Rock drummer, Film maker, NYTimes #1 bestselling author   A Patriot's History (concept trailer) - https://vimeo.com/40949423 Buy Larry a coffee - http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Want more Larry Schweikart politics, current events, and history?   Visit www.wildworldofpolitics.com and become an INSIDER.

    TODAY'S NEWS, February 12-13, 2026

    IN POLITICAL NEWS   1) I had this on Wednesday, but it's sooo juicy I had to repeat it: Trump has revoked and rescinded the "greenhouse gas" finding by the EPA, opening the door for more growth and better affordability. But it also opens the doors to the few mental institutions left standing as the DemoKKKrat Terrorists are acting like Lulu Lemon just ran out of see-through crotches. The New York Slimes absolutely moans "Trump Allies Near 'Total Victory' in Wiping out U.S. Climate Regulation." TOTAL VICTORY. When was the last time any administration claimed that? As best I can tell, it was aboard the U.S.S. Missouri in 1945 when the Japanese acknowledged a first class ass-kicking. Anyone remember that EPA chief Lee Zeldin said he would drive a dagger into the heart of the climate change religion? Cult, meet dagger.   2) Speaking of cults, though this more properly belongs in international news, but a transoid shooter in Canada was just the latest to prove that these people are mentally in the same category as frybread. The Hoax News media cannot even begin to report this stuff honestly. ALL transoids need to be screened for mental loopiness.. This BOY, over 6 foot tall, was upset that even after his tranny transition he wouldn't be "petitie."   3) And another cult took a blow, that of the "2020 Election was Legit" (better known as "81 Million Votes my Ass") as President Trump ordered the CIA to turn over all 2020 election intel to a lawyer who had been involved in "Stop the Steal." I hope President Trump realizes that unless he and John Radcliffe personally pay a visit to the globalist coupsters inside that scum agency, they won't hand over anything except A F "I Voted" sticker.   4) Per Seth Keshel, the last of the McTurdite candidates, Karrin Taylor Robson, dropped out of the AZ governor's race yesterday, leaving Andy Biggs, my (good) Congressman to take the seat from the evil Hobbit.   5) A ChiCom businessman currently in jail is behind the biolabs that the FBI has busted.   6) President Trump announced numerous new court nominations. Oh, and if Trump is displeased with Pam Bondi, you sure couldn't tell it by his latest statement.   7) President Trump pardoned five former NFL players including the great Dallas Cowboys guard Nate Newton.   IN EPSTEIN NEWS   8) Goldman Sachs top lawyer resigned due to, ahem, "mentions" in the Annals of Eppy. "Best massage ever, but not your kind of massage, she tweeted. Now she calls Eppy a "monster," but then gushed at a "day of joy" and called him "Uncle Jeffrey."   9) A French former culture minister resigned from his post at a cultural center after the Eppy files named him.   IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS   10) The Small Business Administration has banned non-citizens from getting SBA loans.   11) DHS stripped deportation protections from Yemanis, sending them home. Meanwhile, two Pakistani nationals were arrested in a $10 million Medicare Fraud scheme.   12) Not only did Tom Homan say special agents are staying on the fraud investigations in Skinny Minny, but also said they had located 3,500 kids lost by the Rutabaga administration.   IN CULTURAL NEWS   13) And here we go. Now Muslim activists in New Kabul (NYC) are trying to get dogs banned as pets because they are "non-Islamic." Why don't you let this rectalgiblet know where you stand and adopt a rescue today?   IN TRANSOID NEWS   14) This beauty queen says she was stripped of her title because she refused to endorse transoidism.   IN ECONOMIC NEWS   15) Not sure I'd be celebrating this as Spotify seems to be but it says its developers haven't written a line of code since December due to AI. I'm betting said developers are shipping out resumes right now. As this techhie writes, the role of the software engineer is shifting from writing code to managing AI robots. Elon Musk says that soon working will be optional. Well, gee, it already is for 50% of the DemoKKKrat Terror Party. But he also predicts prices for goods will drop dramatically and people won't even have to save for retirement any more---not that many do today. See Jeff Childers' discussion of this in his "Coffee & Covid" column today. This study, meanwhile, says AI is failing at over 95% of jobs. Sorta like an illegal. David Blackmon, the Rush Limbaugh of Energy, says really the whole AI race only comes down to one question, "Us or Chy=na?"   16) As Martin Lawrence's character would say in "Bad Boys," "this s . . .t is about to get real." Yes it is. Microsoft's CEO says that most white collar jobs---get it, not just tech?---will be fully automated in the next 12-18 months. Challenger showed that fully 7% of the job losses in January were due to AI. Folks, forget H1Bs: this is the threat. Mercor just hired thousands of lawyers, doctors, writers, and thousands of "white-collar contractors" to . . . wait for it . . . train its AI to take their jobs. Oh, and my little techless friends, it gets better. Anthropic warns that its Claude could be used for "heinous crimes" including developing chemical weapons. And you morons don't pull the plug? Its latest Opus 4.6 shows inclinations to deceive or manipulate other developers. Equally concerning, its lead safety researcher quit saying that "the world is in peril." I kid you not, he quit to study poetry. This is kind of reminding me of that last scene in "Rogue One."   17) The Bureau of Labor Statistics that handles the jobs reports has revised downward by almost one million the total number of new jobs created last year. This is painful, but necessary, as it is common knowledge that Rutabaga's filth-fleecers were jimmying the numbers for four years trying to support the Tin Man. Hoax News may have a field day with this, but they should be skeeeered, as it means that all numbers from here on out are rock solid, not some Hunter Biteme crack-dream.   17) The inflation rate (as always) "beat expectations" and fell to 2.4%. We already saw the jobs market coming back. The economy will hit a massive lift off by about August. DemoKKRats are so screwed, they have less of a chance of surviving than Savannah Guthrie's mom.   18) Real wages which were down under Rutabaga have risen 1.25%, or a turnaround of nearly 190%.   IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS   19) France is scaling back wind and solar, presumably so it can afford to send five members of the Foreign Legion to protect Greenland while it's other three guys are staging for Ukraine.   20) Puerto Rico's electric grid hasn't improved at all in nine years since Hurricane Maria.   21) The International Olympic Village ran out of condoms after three days, giving a whole new meaning to ice dancing. As an aside, do you know why Southern Baptists never have sex standing up? Because people would think they are dancing.   22) Pretty big deal: the Church of England voted to stop advancing homosexual/transoid "acceptance" in the Church.   23) Taiwan and the U.S. reached a deal to cut tariffs.   24) Transpo Secretary Sean Duffy, who, unlike his predecessor Buttplugs, actually does something in his job, praised the Department and the Department of War for shutting down the El Paso drone incursion quickly.   IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS   25) Soooo delicious as the woke "Snow Black and the Seven Midgets who don't want to be called Dwarves" lost a whopping $170 million. Now do you see why I keep harping on "Avengers: Doomsday?" It is literally a make-or-break the studio movie. It will be successful, period. But will it be "that" successful that it can right the whole carcinogenic Marvel brand and, with it, Disney? Stay tuned. Oh, and Forbes got this info by going through Brit records of production, because Disney won't post any honest numbers.   26) Chris Paul, a 12-time NBA All Star, has retired. His glorious season with the Phoenix Suns took them to within a hair of the championship four years ago.   IN MEDICAL NEWS   27) There has been an explosion in pancreatic cancer in young people. Anyone bother to check vax status?   AND FINALLY . . .   28) I know it's The Babylon Bee but this is so on target: "DemoKKKrats Counter with STEAL Act" to ban voter ID.     Larry Schweikart (@WallsOther)   Rock drummer, Film maker,NYTimes #1 bestselling author   Link for Patriot’s History Vimeo   https://vimeo.com/40949423   Link to buy larry a coffee   http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Larry Schweikart Rock drummer, Film maker, NYTimes #1 bestselling author   A Patriot's History (concept trailer) - https://vimeo.com/40949423 Buy Larry a coffee - http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Want more Larry Schweikart politics, current events, and history?   Visit www.wildworldofpolitics.com and become an INSIDER.

    TODAY'S NEWS, February 10-11, 2026

    IN POLITICAL NEWS   Caveat: You're not going to see discussions of Savannah Guthrie's missing mother because, well, I don't care. There are thousands of missing children out there, many thanks to the DemoKKKrats, and they deserve the attention.   1) A Virginia grand jury refused to indict Sen. Moonman Kelly and others for a seditious video in which they urged service members to disobey orders. One more reminder that there are blue sections of this country that do not care one whit about law, order, or the Constitution. D.C. locals are 92% Terror DemoKKKrat Party supporters. As Jeff Childers, a lawyer, notes, the good news is that the government cannot (still, at least in some places) be judge, jury, and executioner. The bad news for the Moonman cheerleaders is that once again the optics are terrible with a two-tiered justice system. Now, please tell me how Pam Bondi is to blame for this one.   2) My friend Joseph Ford Cotto comes to many of the same conclusions I've come to about where the DemoKKKrats are, namely, screwed. They pretty much have to win 2026 to even hope to stay alive. Good to see more people taking up this banner.   3) Contrary to the predictions of Masshole and Randy Paul, the U.S. deficit continues to shrink under Trump's economic policies, down a whopping $143 billion from this time last year.   4) The administration cleaned out 50 suspected fugitive felons living in one single taxpayer-subsidized house in Franklin Co., OH. Also, DOJ just filed charges against adult day care owners in a $120 million fraud scheme in New York. Some would say "they're going after the small fish," but I would argue that these are the very "fish" that are harming more Americans on a daily basis than the entire Epstein list combined---and yes, I want anyone guilty of a crime arrested and convicted in that list.   5) Republicans won another special election, making the scorecard in the last few months Rs+4, Ds+3.   6) President Trump is going to rescind the government "finding" that "greenhouse gasses" pose a danger to earth.   7) Something is going on in El Paso, where according to the Department of War, cartel drones shut down the airport there. Dunno about you, but seems to me that is an act of war.   8) Broke-ass Kollyfornia, which cannot even begin to finish the rocket train to nowhere or fix a road, passed a bill to give Molochian Planned Murderhood $30 million. Maybe that's why this demonic state has lost one-third of a billion dollars in tax revenues in just three months on the threat of raising more taxes.   9) President Trump eliminated a Zero-era climate finding for autos, which is likely to knock the price of a new car down by as much as $2,500.   10) This absolutely must be challenged in court: an IL city handed out $25,000 in "reparations" to 44 black families.   11) A sad story out of MN as the daughter of a GOP governor candidate was killed in a botched murder-suicide. I never understand why these fungusdimples don't BEGIN with themselves and leave the other people alone.   12) A corrupt federal judge rejected the DoJ's "request" for MI voter data. We can do this the easy way, or the hard way. You're apparently choosing the hard way.   13) Two former FL teachers' union officials have been sentenced to prison for fraud with union funds.   IN EPSTEIN NEWS   14) I'm including a new section, at least for a while, because there are so many Jeffrey Epstein-related stories out there. First, his inner circle, including Les Wexner, have been subpoenaed to testify before Congress.   15) One of the biggest stories, er, non-stories, is Trump. He either isn't in the Epstein files or he is shown actively opposing Eppie and trying to get him arrested.   16) Numerous e-mails show prominent people, including the president of Bard College, thanking ol Epper for gifts, including Caribbean cruises. He also "scouted" women (though apparently of age) for NY Midgets owner Steve Tisch.   17) Ghislaine Maxwell hinted that if given clemency by Trump she would spill the beans. There is a way to do this---and if she doesn't do what she promised, she would go right back to prison. 18) The lefty Eurasia Review tried to tie it all back to the failures of "market capitalism," but more realistically it is the failure of "nice" government structures that have been unwilling to take on anyone bigger than Martha Stewart.   IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS   19) Out of the blue, now, having demanded body cams for LEOs for decades, SpewMore and "Movin' on Up" Jeffries suddenly don't like them because they usually clearly show moronic protesters acting in ways that get them killed.   IN CULTURAL NEWS   20) As it did with every single action, the corrupt Rutabaga administration hid the data on student loan delinquencies so it could make more loans.   21) The UNC system is now 60:40 female.   22) President Trump announced the White House Ball Room is on budget and ahead of schedule, driving the beltway boozeshufflers crazy.   IN ECONOMIC NEWS   23) Despite a software stock wipeout to the tune of a $2 trillion loss, the stock market gained ground in the AI bull market. Then today comes news of an "unexpected" (cuz, you know, those trained economists are soooo good at predicting) 130,000 GAIN in jobs. And these are overwhelmingly native born Americans getting these jobs.     And the number of fed employees continues to shrink more than any time in history. This is why so many are pitching such fits.       24) Maybe because retail sales spiked by a whopping $80 billion in December, a record high.   25) Americans are making record income, not counting capital gains, and debt has begun to reverse. Signs of spring.   IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS   26) Seven killed in Canada, a nation that basically bans guns, in a school shooting.   27) Greece and Israel are cooperating with an anti-drone, cybersecurity pact. Speaking of Israel, it has released massive numbers of bees into the desert, causing a remarkable explosion in bee numbers (whereas they are declining around the world) and causing ag production to soar.   IN EXTRATERRESTRIAL NEWS   28) Your tax dollars at work, as someone actually did a study that showed that Ohioans have a 1.3% chance of being abducted by space aliens. Look, if Starlord and Rocket show up, yeah, I'll go with them on a cruise for the heck of it.   IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS   29) I did not watch the Super Bowl live---haven't done that for maybe a decade. But I watched the 30 minute highlights and came away thinking, really, not only did the Patriot's not belong in the arena, but that Sam Darnold---despite all the post-SB media hype---ain't that great. He had one perfect pass, two others that he got away with that easily could have been interceptions. Tom Brady would have put up another two touchdowns. Just my take. At any rate, the goofy NFL permits states to tax these winnings, and although Sam Darnold took home $178,000 in Most Valuable Player award, he has to pay $249,000 for the privilege of playing in blue states like WA and Kollyfornia.   30) Ya, mon! The Jamaica Bobsled Team will make another appearance at the Olympics, sans John Candy. Great movie. Great story about finishing what you start.   31) Mark Zuckerberg is just the latest to begin to relocate from Kollyfornia to FL.   IN MEDICAL NEWS   32) The FDA refused to review the new Moderna flu vaccine due to incorporation of mRNA tech.   AND FINALLY . . .   33) "Crime fighting llamas" surrounded a crook in a field until the 5-0 could arrive. Do you think we can teach them to do this with illegal invaders?   Larry Schweikart Rock drummer, Film maker, NYTimes #1 bestselling author   A Patriot's History (concept trailer) - https://vimeo.com/40949423 Buy Larry a coffee - http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Want more Larry Schweikart politics, current events, and history?   Visit www.wildworldofpolitics.com and become an INSIDER.

    Today's News, February 7-9, 2026

    IN POLITICAL NEWS   1) An excellent pro-ICE ad ran during the Game-Which-Shall-Not-Be-Named. Meanwhile, the Turning Point USA halftime show racked up 25 million viewers. Oh, yeah, I think a team from Seattle won, but I didn't watch. Still in the last season of "Suits."   2) Elon Musk offered to cover the legal costs of any Epstein victims who came forward to "speak truth." DemoKKKrats reportedly seen at local Kroger Depenz aisles. Then there are the five stages of political spoogieness, as the New York Slimes insisted for years there was no blackmail going on over at Epstein Island Island when, gee, now it says, "Hold muh beer."   3) Trump says to DemoKKKrat Terror Party governors, "You want resist? I got resist for ya right here" as he did NOT invite them to the National Governor's Association dinner nor the subsequent White House working group. Why should he? So they can return to their pig sty swillwhistle funding troughs and begin counter preparations?   4) DemoKKKrats won another special election, this time in LA, in a district Trump carried by 13. That puts the last 8 specials at 50/50.   5) GA is turning into a rotten peach, as newly disclosed docs show that Gov. Brian Kemp told the FBI Bureau Chief not to investigate the 2020 fraud. These people do not understand that if this trickle of sleaze becomes a waterfall, Americans will shuck aside their history and character and demand these bowel-wrappers go to jail.   6) TX has sued a giant fiberglass manufacturer Global Fiberglass Solutions for dumping over 3,000 wind turbine blades at Sweetwater, TX.   7) Cackles had a rebrand attempt that failed so badly even CNN called it "cringe."   8) Florida's teacher's union was trying to hide its class syllabi and lessons. They just lost in court.   9) The House Intel chairman warns that there may be a pattern with the ChiCom biolabs that the FBI has been busting, and that they could be setting the stage for a new pandemic.   10) Pete "The Punisher" Hegseth announced that the Department of War will cut all ties to Harvard. Ouch. Put some ICE on that.   11) The Fourth Circuit Court just cleared the way for Trump to exterminate DEI.   12) How Tik Tok's algorithms radicalized soft-brained liberal women.   13) The Small Business Administration just suspended over 111,000 CA borrowers suspected of fraud and will pursue criminal charges against them. Once they got the money, however, the government will be lucky to get back pennies on the dollar.   14) A large number of military transport planes are heading for the Middle East. A few days ago, a Pizza Tsunami was reported at the Pentagon. Something brewing?   15) A federal judge ordered all Fulton Co., GA, voter docs unsealed by tomorrow. Dems suicidal.   IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS   16) About time. The Administration will not comply with a court order to provide due process to illegal Venezuelans shipped back to El Salvador. Pound sand, judicial jigglepickets.   IN CULTURAL NEWS   17) This is moving a little faster than even I expected. Now there is a site where AI hires humans to do physical-world tasks. What does AI do when there's a strike? Call in robodogs?   18) Anyone remember Dr. House? His famous line was "Everybody lies." Apparently, Ryan Burge thinks so too. He examines who actually voted vs. who said they voted. Big difference, and it tracks along with those who said they went to church last week. Of those answering a survey, 97% said they voted in the last election, but only 59% actually did so according to the Cooperative Election Study.   19) This is an interesting development. How do you get rid of "women's studies" and "sociology" departments? You tie student loan access to earnings after you graduate. Oh, and speaking of eddication, TX has set a record for the most students applying for the state's new school choice programs. Teacher's Unions are probably double-ordering razor blades.   IN TRANSOID NEWS   20) The Human Rights Campaign, otherwise known as the "Queer Lobby," saw a 65% drop in corporate DEI support. Good start, but should be 100%.   IN ECONOMIC NEWS   21) Washington Compost CEO and publisher Will Lewis has resigned. Boo hoo. The Compost died in its own darkness.   22) VT's EV bus fleet doesn't work in the cold, which, gee, is about 60% of VT's year. Meanwhile, Jeep EV maker Stellantis lost a $26 billion bet on higher EV demand.   23) On Friday, Feb. 6, after I had already posted Today's News, the DOW hit 50,000 for the first time ever.   24) Irena Slav is not a tech expert, nor does she pretend to be. But she does a great job of tracking the stratospheric investments here by Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, and others (closing on $1 trillion) when so far AI has yet to make a profit on anything or to prove that it's substantially better than what we have. There is a law out there (Peter Thiel's Law) that says that a new tech must be ten times better than the old to effect a replacement. AI is nowhere close to that, yet its denizens are now claiming it will replace "software." Meanwhile, the energy sector is investing a tiny fraction of that money with far better results.   IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS   25) Cuba continues its collapse, closing beach resorts.   26) Green vanguard country Finland sees its wind turbine blades freeze as it lacks power. No mercy, no pity.   27) David Blackmon, the Rush Limbaugh of Energy, says the entire EV market is moving to a ChiCom monopoly because Chy-na will continue to subsidize these money losers.   28) Speaking of losers, the Hamas Murder Pirates admitted that 50,000 deaths in Gaza are in fact Hamas Murder Pirates.   29) It looks like a conservative won the prime minister race in Thailand.   30) Cuba says international airlines can no longer refuel there due to, well, lack of fuel.   31) The party of Japan's new conservative Prime Minister is set to win over 360 seats in the legislature. That is a landslide.   32) And speaking of Prime Minsters, though probably not for long, Mediocre Britain's Prime Minister Stuttering Kier Starmer's chief of staff just resigned in Epstein-related sludge. Here is how Jeff Childers in his great "Coffee and Covid" column explains the ramifications today: "The Epstein files have now claimed a British prince, an ambassador, a chief of staff, a Labour Party membership, and a seat in the House of Lords— and they’re not done yet. At this point, the files are doing more to clean up government corruption than any UK government ever did."   33) Maybe there really is a mysterious city under the ice, as the latest attempt to drill Antarctica's "Doomsday" glacier failed when instruments became lodged in the ice. . . or someone's hand!     34) Elon Musk says SpaceX is shifting focus from Mars to a lunar "self-growing city."   IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS   35) The radical website Discord will now require ID and facial scans of all users.   36) Jennifer ("What's in your wallet?") Garner has swapped Hollywood for her baby-food company with a new $1 billion valuation. Does this mean she won't be back in "Avengers: Doomsday?"   37) By the way, I saw "Shelter," the latest Jason Statham movie. His last two have been formulaic: a mysterious "working man" or "loner" takes up the protection/rescue of a young girl (never a young boy) and defeats a few obnoxious types along the way. Action is dramatically reduced from "Beekeeper" and as always much is in the dark so you can't see it. He produced this one (I give it a B=) so let's hope he learns.   38) U.S. women's skier Lindsey Vonn, trying to make a comeback from a serious injury, caught a gate with her ski pole in her downhill race, suffered a terrible crash, and had to be airlifted out with a broken leg.   IN MEDICAL NEWS   39) Sounds like something Iron Man would have in his suit, but South Korean researchers developed a spray that will cauterize bleeding instantly.   40) Trump continually exposes the anti-US bias in the world with everything he does. Now his Trump Rx lower drug price site suddenly has the Euros looking at raising prices because we will no longer subsidize them. Now tell me about how Europe is "so much healthier" than America when we don't fund their stupid healthcare. For example, as Jeff Childers notes, half of Switzerland's exports are pharma, and now Novartis and others are having to lay off people.   AND FINALLY . . .   41) India's tiger population has doubled in five years. No word on the population decline in neighboring villages.   Larry Schweikart (@WallsOther)   Rock drummer, Film maker,NYTimes #1 bestselling author   Link for Patriot’s History Vimeo   https://vimeo.com/40949423   Link to buy larry a coffee   http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys       Larry Schweikart Rock drummer, Film maker, NYTimes #1 bestselling author   A Patriot's History (concept trailer) - https://vimeo.com/40949423 Buy Larry a coffee - http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Want more Larry Schweikart politics, current events, and history?   Visit www.wildworldofpolitics.com and become an INSIDER.

    FEB 6

    TODAY'S NEWS, February 6, 2026

    IN POLITICAL NEWS   1) While people were obsessing over Trump "drawing down" in MN---which will not last, and which I think is a distraction, which will again be picked up as soon as attention shifts---he has torched the whole Board of Immigration process that ends all appeals after March 9 unless a majority of the Board agrees to hear the case. BRAVO.   2) Reason #434 why the DemoKKKrats are screwed, and why 2026 or, at the latest, 2028 is their last stand, as blue states are facing an out-migration nightmare. Overall, DemoKKKrats lost almost another 500,000 in population last year (with CA losing 229,000). Of the states that have red trifectas, only three lost population and two of those, only 1,000. The other 19 gained 345,000. Of the DemoKKKrat states, only ME, DE, WA, and OR gained at all. Even the latest blue state, CO, lost population for the first time in years. Now throw in the fact that the DemoKKKrat states have the lowest fertility rates in the U.S. Gee, I wonder why, with all that free abortion? Then there are consistent, steady, ongoing voter reform efforts as in GA where they are returning to paper ballots. Meanwhile, in Kollyfornia, the top two in polling for the state's governorship are both Rs. Why is that important? Because Kollyfornia stupidly has a "jungle primary" that puts in the top two, regardless of party. I don't think this will hold up, but if it does, watch for Kollyfornia to change that jungle primary law in a hurry. Then there is this indicator: the GOP has outraised the DemoKKKrats by $100 million, or a factor of 6:1. Note, this does not include Trump's $100 fund.   3) The GOP's Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) will retire, bringing the number of GOP to 32 (I think) and Ds to 26. I still believe that by July they will be about even in retirements.   4) Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced IRS audits of major banks, financial firms, and intermediaries that facilitated the Skinny Minny fraud.   5) New Azteca (LA) mayor Karen ASS secretly altered a Palisade Fire report that made her and the city look bad. I mean, how else could it make them look? Or we have this story about a "Maryland man" (not the illegal invader Garcia) who was arrested for the attempted murder of Office of Management and Budget director Russ Vought. Maybe we need to rename liberalism as "The Religion of Peace" (TROP trademark)? Apparently as another DemoKKKrat, a "Satanist" named "Pagan," was arrested for plans to shoot up a church. All I can say is they better not try that at my church. I'm told the response time is under 9 seconds.   6) Speaking of Kollyfornia, the next President, J. D. Vance, will head a fraud task force looking into the Tarnished State.   7) The administration approved a new rule making it easier to fire federal employees.   IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS   8) This is going to get funny in a hurry, as now MN is policing neighborhood borders to keep out ICE. Get it? They are establishing their own border patrol to keep out people who are enforcing border control. Can't wait til some drunk dopespoker runs one of their lines. What are they gonna do, blow a whistle?   9) Four Venezuelans have been arrested for a $1 million food stamp fraud in MA.   10) Rents fall again as deportations rise.   IN CULTURAL NEWS   11) President Trump has announced a National Jubilee of Prayer in May as part of the America 250 celebration. NO OTHER PRESIDENT IN RECENT MEMORY WOULD HAVE DONE THIS. This is nothing less than, as Trump put it, an effort to "rededicate America as one nation under God."   TRANSOID NEWS   12) Jennifer Sey rips apart stupid arguments against the two major medical associations---DOCTORS, GET IT?---that decided to oppose transoid surgeries for minors. One inebriated armadillo-brain actually compared getting your breasts whacked off to a . . . nose job. This is another reason DemoKKKrats cannot be trusted with anything. Even if they weren't terroristic murdering mofos, they are STUPID.   IN ECONOMIC NEWS   13) EVs are now looking like the costliest corporate blunder in American business history. And that includes some doozies, as I note here:     14) The Atlantic, a pompous, irrelevant litter-liner, whines that Jeffy Bezos killed the Washington Compost. Actually, there, little twaddledigits, it was liberalism like the kind you engage in that killed the Compost. But we don't care what caused it, just so it's gone. Just one example of why the Compost died in its own darkness: it had eight (!!) "climate change" reporters.   15) Weekly unemployment claims rose to a 2-month high.   16) The AI market meltdown this week was caused by the introduction of "Claude," Anthropic's new "skills" prompt that already has built-in the kinds of skills you need to, well, ask the right question for the prompt. And the next thing is "vibe coding" whereby Claude will respond to your vision of what you want to see done. Man, this guy is in trouble.   17) But this isn't even half of the AI blessing/threat. Now it can "vibe code," meaning you don't just enter questions, but enter your vision for how a business or project should work out, and vibe coding will make it happen.   18) The Feds are investigating Nike for anti-white biases.   19) Eddie Bauer is about to file for bankruptcy.   IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS   20) Members of the Church of Climate Change are freaking out because the Washington Compost booted its entire, useless, do-nothing "reporters" who made up stories about water levels rising. Now, bawls some of the high priests, the legacy media no longer "treats climate dissent as heresy." Boo hoo. "Legacy" media actually have someone on every once in a while who knows this whole thing was a green scam?   21) Did you know there is a blockade of fuel going into Cuba, and that it's working?   22) It was announced that there will be six-month-long delays in ChiCom chips, meaning the USA has to move even faster to completely quarantine off Chy-na with our own chip makers.   23) For the first time in history, a generation is dumber than its parents. Gosh, who could have seen that coming?   IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS   24) Victor Hanson just the latest to reveal a cancer battle, but he's back.   25) Troubled little self-hater Billie Eilish is getting roasted even by libs who think she's the U.S. equivalent of Greedo Thunderburger. Stupid Mark ("The Bulk") Ruffalo defended her, but others say she looked like she was wrapped in a garbage bag. Eilish is four years older than the great rookie with the Dallas Mavericks, Cooper Flagg. Let's get real. She's a sick, grown woman who still portrays herself as a little teen. You know, sorta like this one:     In all seriousness, I pray for her, Brittney Spears, Kanye, and Puffy every day that their minds may be healed and they can receive a witness for the Lord. But, since I'm lecturing please keep in your prayers Jordan Peterson, Bill O' Reilly, and VDH for health and Russell Brand for his Christian walk. I don't know where he is legally. If innocent, let him go, if guilty, he should repent. But not up to me.   IN MEDICAL NEWS   26) President Trump unveiled TrumpRx website with lower costs on drugs. As always, President Trump does something useful and effective by either sending patients to a pharma portal without middlemen costs, or printing out a coupon. And TDS bilepoachers insist it's a trick. Mrs LS told me of a woman who reportedly said she won't use it, despite massive heart meds her husband needs (which would have much lower prices) because it would be "money in Trump's pocket." Understand that for over a decade, going back to the failed fungalpot Obamacare, DemoKKKrats promised to lower drug prices. El Trumpo did it. And this is aimed at getting rid of the phenomenally expensive "health insurance" and giving people access to the drugs without the monthly extra insurance charges. See Jeff Childers on this, but the panicking Hoax News Obamacare-spewing media are trying to simultaneously argue that it won't lower prices, but that it will hurt Big Pharma's bottom line. Which is it?   AND FINALLY . . .   27) This is a weird one. Olympic ski jumpers are injecting their penises with a drug that makes them, er, "Meester Beeg" because that gets them a bigger competition suit, which, apparently, gives them more air time. That is, if it overcomes the drag of said Enhanced Male Pleasure-in-ator.     Larry Schweikart (@WallsOther)   Rock drummer, Film maker,NYTimes #1 bestselling author   Link for Patriot’s History Vimeo   https://vimeo.com/40949423   Link to buy larry a coffee   http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Larry Schweikart Rock drummer, Film maker, NYTimes #1 bestselling author   A Patriot's History (concept trailer) - https://vimeo.com/40949423 Buy Larry a coffee - http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Want more Larry Schweikart politics, current events, and history?   Visit www.wildworldofpolitics.com and become an INSIDER.

    TODAY'S NEWS, February 3-4, 2026

    IN POLITICAL NEWS   1) This is why the "special elections" game is so tricky. DemoKKKrats just finished celebrating a TX state senate seat flip when this AL result comes out. The R won by an even bigger margin than did Trump in 2024. Again, overall, somewhat meaningless. Meanwhile, our friends over at "The Liberal Patriot" are starting to put up storm warnings about the Electoral College, as well they should.   2) Having demanded that Trump release the Epstein files, now DemoKKKrats are panicking that he has, beginning with the Clintons, who, after failed maneuvering and posturing, finally relegated themselves to being interrogated by the House. Looks like the DemoKKKrats have tossed the Corrupt Crime Family under the bus. Remember, this comes one week after unnamed "DemoKKKrats" warned House members to stay the heck away from MN because, well, the story was hurting them. Nor does it help that another DemoKKKrat was charged with fraudulent use of funds in GA. No, the "big names" aren't here, but for Pete's sake, is anyone watching the sheer number of underlings being rolled up?   3) I did not expect the Supes to overturn the Kollyfornia redistricted map, any more than they will overturn any other. This does not change my equation one iota, as I always calculated 5 new DemoKKKrat seats in Kollyfornia. Rs still should hold the house by 2-5.   4) The FBI shut down another biolab operation, this one in Las Vegas.   5) Ah, the left is so cheery and full of life. The Senior Skank, Jill Biden, learned that her ex-husband has been charged with murdering her successor.   6) The Inspector General said that a whistleblower complaint against Tulsi Gabbard lacked credibility. She says she was on the ground in Fulton Co. because Trump requested it.   7) Moronic Massachusetts is set to establish driving mileage limits. Are you toadstools awake yet? Meanwhile miles driven hit an all time high.   8) Ryan "Baby" Routh was sentenced to life in prison for attempting to assassinate President Trump.   9) Elon Musk and X awarded Nick Shirley $100,000 for his reporting on the Skinny Minny fraud.   10) Two GOP Congressmen have said that John Can't Carry a Thune will bypass the standard silent filibuster to pass the SAVE (voting integrity) Act. We'll see. Oh, and a new poll shows that 76% of black Americans want voter ID.   11) Republicans are just 42,877 away from flipping PA red among active voters. This margin was DemoKKKrat +1.1 million in 2016.   IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS   12) Shipwreckedcrew says Jonathan Ross was 100% justified in shooting Renee Good.   IN TRANSOID NEWS   13) The first major medical group says nay nay on child mutilation. Drip, drip, drip. Soon this will be universal, then they will begin looking at transoidism in adults, properly, as a sickness.   IN ECONOMIC NEWS   14) In a regular and expected concern with AI, the latest suggests AI will cost a lot of software jobs, causing a market dip. Fortune warns that AI may also cut revenues. Someone better figger it out because right now AI is lining up to be the biggest capital expenditure in history.   15) Bahama Breeze, the sister chain of Olive Garden restaurants, basically went out of business overnight.   16) Rare earth minerals stocks soared after Trump announced "Project Vault" as a strategic minerals stockpile.   17) Commercial office delinquencies are worse than in 2008. Thing is, I'm not sure they will ever recover from the China Virus, and maybe many of those elites who own those properties should have done more to stop the insane lockdowns.   18) Private payroll growth did not hit expectations. Maybe some of them are here, as the Washington Compost tells employees to stay home and may have extensive layoffs. However, Quantum Insights says that manufacturing growth is back in style.   19) Elon Musk is merging SpaceX and xAI. Will this be Skynet after all? It would be a trillion dollar company. Today, however, Wal-Mart hit $1 trillion as the first ever trillion dollar business.   20) Harvard thought it could stall, waiting out Trump. The New York Slimes ran a story saying Trump backed down. Oops. Trump increased the demand from Harvard from $200m to $1 billion.   21) David Blackmon, the Rush Limbaugh of Energy, says that natural gas is the big winner in the AI power race.   IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS   22) Looks like the Clintons aren't the only elites caught up in the Epstein muck. Norway's top dogs are identified as well. This includes PMs, royalty, members of the useless Nobel committee. Gonna be fun. Norweigians don't like it, with 76% saying the future queen should not take the throne, but perhaps work at a ski resort. And in Mediocre Britain, Lord Mandelson, ex-ambassador to the U.S., has resigned.   23) A conservative, following the latest string of conservative victories in Latin America, won the presidency in Costa Rica.   24) Trump's trade pact with India will cut into Russkie oil revenues.   26) The son of former Libyan dictator Muammar Khaddafi was shot in his home.   26) The Huns are dismantling their chemical industrial base.   27) An Arab reporter says that Palestinians would bring their kids to riots hoping they'd be hurt so they could collect money from the Palestinian Authority.   IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS   28) I admit, I don't know who Bad Bunny is or if plays the mandolin or tuba, but his record company was tied to Maduro. So predictable and stupid.   29) Singer Billie Eilish who went on a Grammy rant about people living on "stolen lands" is herself living in a $3 million mansion that resides in Injun land. This is a sick little girl. Very talented.   IN MEDICAL NEWS   30) Imagine that! RFK, Jr. wants to put safety before efficacy. I think we all would too . . . all except Politico which whines about it. Oh, and Trump tried to cut HHS funds in the new budget and the moronic DemoKKKrats put the money back in . . . and Bobby said he has plenty of projects they hate.   AND FINALLY . . .   31) Every once in a while amazing stories like this show up. In Australia, a 13-year-old boy, whose family on paddleboards was swept out to sea, swam four hours to rescue them.   Larry Schweikart (@WallsOther)   Rock drummer, Film maker,NYTimes #1 bestselling author   Link for Patriot’s History Vimeo   https://vimeo.com/40949423   Link to buy larry a coffee   http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Larry Schweikart Rock drummer, Film maker, NYTimes #1 bestselling author   A Patriot's History (concept trailer) - https://vimeo.com/40949423 Buy Larry a coffee - http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Want more Larry Schweikart politics, current events, and history?   Visit www.wildworldofpolitics.com and become an INSIDER.

    TODAY'S NEWS, January 31-February 2, 2026

    IN POLITICAL NEWS   1) This seems pretty undeniable that the FBI GA raid, signed off by a judge, on Fulton Co. election HQ is looking for "fraud." Boomshakalaka.   2) In a big headline, Kollyfornia politicians celebrate the continuation of slavery. Oh, wait, I'm sorry, it's "Kollyfornia politicians celebrate banning voter ID."   3) One of the church invasion suspects arrested along with Blind Lemon Don by the feds is the Minny prosecutor's right hand man.   4) With everyone focused on MN, Trump's DOJ released millions of pages more of Epstein docs. . . and Trump isn't in any of them. Wait, I thought Bondi wasn't doing anything with the Epstein files?   5) This is in one pocket and out the other, but President Trump has filed a $10 billion suit against the IRS for leaking his tax returns. Don, I get this. It's wrong. But as my extremely (sometimes) wise son says, "NONE OF IT MATTERS WITHOUT SOMEONE DOING TO JAIL." Evil simply isn't deterred anymore by fines or financial losses.   6) We had a DemoKKKrat win a special election in TX and the panicans are all out. But the legislature isn't in session, a tiny percentage turned out, and this will flip back immediately in the regular session. Meanwhile, for those who think DemoKKKrarts are cruising to victory in 2026, President Trump's war chest is gigantic, and separate from the GOP's, which has raised about seven times more money than the DemoKKKrats. And the likelihood of holding the Senate or even expanding the GOP majority by a seat grew with Trump's endorsement of quasi-RINO in NH John Sununu. He can likely win that seat.   7) FL had a voter roll purge. Rs lost 6,,000, Ds lost 65,000, leaving FL with a R voter advantage of 1.5 million.   8) President Trump will close the Kennedy-Trump Center for two years for renovations based on a report about the dilapidated condition of the building. I'm betting that also they will use that time to set up a monster list of shows that won't involve any Neil Young types.   9) The New Azteca (LA) 5-0 refused to enforce the Oleaginous Gruesome's maskie ban. Funny, just a few years ago they wanted everyone to be in a mask.   10) The first casualty of the USAID fraud investigations pleads guilty.   IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS   11) Anyone who thought ICE was "cutting back" or that Trump had "lost" in the Walz/Frey discussions might want to read this: ICE is expanding warrantless searches. Full speed ahead. What Trump actually said was that federal forces will let the rioters in these cities riot so long as no federal property is involved. While I understand the urge to crush these SOBs, keep in mind the bigger picture right now is to evict the illegal invaders. Don't get distracted. And just like that, a judge declined MN's request to block a "surge" of feds. Wait, a surge? I thought Trump folded.   12) Border czar Tom Homan says the administration has located 145,000 missing kids out of the estimated 323,000. No one, though, will say what will happen to them. Are there 145,000 people wanting to adopt? Do you send them home? Do they know where home is?   13) Florida has instituted "English only" drivers' license tests. As it should be everywhere.   14) Everyone is looking at MN, so ICE hits WV with the support of locals and nabs 650 illegals.   IN CULTURAL NEWS   15) Public schools show you exactly why they cannot be trusted. Staffing continues to increase even though the number of pupils is falling across the board.   16) This guy probably should buy a few Powerball tickets: An AL man survived being crushed in a garbage truck . . . twice!   IN TRANSOID NEWS   17) Hallelujah! A jury found a surgeon and a psychiatrist guilty of malpractice for chopping the breasts off a healthy 16-year old girl. This was a $2m judgement The key that may allow a lot of these lawsuits to sidestep woke laws in blue states trying to protect doctors involved in mutiliation is that the lawyers in this case went after the doctors for malpractice.   18) Molochian Kollyfornia with its pimpsimper AG is suing hospitals that will not perform mutilations. Meanwhile, the Supes dither over this, apprently unable to find a case that allows them to determine what a woman is.   IN ECONOMIC NEWS   19) Don't look now, but bitcoin is crashing. down from $100,000 to $74,000 in a week. Not acting as any agent for this, but I have invested in another crypto called Unicoin that will go public soon, and it is 100% backed by physical assets. We'll see if that makes a difference.   20) Blue-collar blues, as President Trump MUST turn these six charts around in the next three years. I believe he will. But this is the only thing preventing the total extinction of the evil DemoKKKrat Terror Party.   21) Ford is denying reports it was meeting with the ChiComs about partnering on an EV.   IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS   22) Imagine that. In Mediocre Britain, London has banned a "walk with Jesus" march through a majority Muslim neighborhood. Gee, why? I thought Islam as "The Religion of Peace" (TROP trademark).   23) The situation in Chy-na, as with all totalitarian societies, is murky. There are reports that the nation went on "near-war" alert, not meaning a focus on external war, but on internal rebellion after Xi sacked his top general. Remember this: Chy-na is always stronger than it looks, Chy-na is always weaker than it looks.   24) Music to my ears. The UN faces "imminent financial collapse."   IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS   25) Melania Trump's documentary "Melania" earned a strong $7 million in its opening weekend. Still, reports are that it had a $40 million budget plus marketing. I don't think this is going to get its money back. Meanwhile, a horror film called "Iron Lung" has raked in over $18 million---and this movie was self-distributed, one by one, as the producer worked with individual theaters.   26) Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl winning FB Scott Laidlaw, dead at 74.   27) Star of "Home Alone" and "Best in Show" (who sang "God Loves a Terrier"), Catherine O'Hara, dead at 71.   28) Cher apparently the latest star to have Alzheimer's as she walked off stage at the Grammys without naming a winner the returned to announce the award went to someone who is dead.   AND FINALLY . . .   29) Here's one you don't hear every day. Floridians are gathering frozen iguanas by the armloads as they fall out of trees. Iguana ignore this story from now on.     Larry Schweikart Rock drummer, Film maker, NYTimes #1 bestselling author   A Patriot's History (concept trailer) - https://vimeo.com/40949423 Buy Larry a coffee - http://buymeacoffee.com/larrys   Want more Larry Schweikart politics, current events, and history?   Visit www.wildworldofpolitics.com and become an INSIDER.
