I had not previously noticed the Angela Davis t-shirt. Our incoming Education Superintendent is proudly supporting a violent black revolutionary communist. Angela Davis bought the shotgun in this photo, which was used to kill Judge Harold Haley.
Legal version of High Noon.
John Lauro defended President Trump against Jack Smith’s criminal prosecutions when no one else would.
“We were facing insurmountable odds against a weaponized government.”
“No big law firm in the country would take on his case.”
“We stood firm.”
“It was the best thing I’ve ever done professionally.”
“The President won, and the country won.”
“We beat back the concept of a weaponized criminal justice system.”
People warned him it would end his career.
“There were numerous people that not only said that to me, but… shunned me.”
“Refused to talk to me because I represented President Trump.”
“I felt in my core President Trump deserved a defense and a vigorous defense.”
“What was happening to him was outrageous.”
“It could happen to any American.”
“And it had to be stopped.”
“It was stopped by the American people who saw through what Jack Smith and other prosecutors, I’ll call them persecutors, were doing to a political movement.”
“It was the right thing to do.”

🚨🚨 THE DEMOCRACY FILES / ILLEGITIMACY PLAYBOOK, PART 16: HOW THE MIDTERMS WERE PULLED OFF 🚨
Among today's talk of voter fraud, a critical role is overlooked: the importance of NGOs in early voting.
Below, I show the receipts where NGOs directly take a role in making the midterms happen.
It's been a long week, and I'm too tired to type up a summary.
Just know the two main points:
Republicans have an institutional blindness. They believe getting voters is all about branding and messaging. They pay enormous sums to consultants and TV ads and have endless conferences on what the right "message" is.
Democrats, meanwhile, have built an entire and expensive institutional machinery around getting people physically to the polls. And they were more motivated in 2026 than any other year.
I do NOT deny the existence of voter fraud. Saying the data doesn't show that others claim to show, is not equivalent to saying there is no fraud.
As I've said in several posts today, the election system in the United States is structurally set up such that citizenship verification is an honor system. The biggest swings in 2026 were among young people and Hispanics.
And 2026 was a concerted effort by NGOs like none other. Watch them in their own words how they pulled it off:
Lemme guess - that Andy was right all along.

Keisha says she’ll freeze datacenter construction by decree when she takes office. Local governments should raise hell
SpaceX’s Arizona data center, per a county supervisor: “We could be reducing property taxes across the board in Cochise County, the entire county, by 20%”
Frank Antenori, whose district includes the site, brought up the county’s tax math during a live Q&A:
“Here’s just something to just chew on. Arizona has an expenditure limit requirement that is placed on counties. If we exceed that expenditure, we have to rebate back to the taxpayers a certain amount.”
“So, if we’re receiving revenue in from SpaceX, by law, we have to offset that to the taxpayers. We have the potential to reduce, based on the projected revenue they’re creating, as much as 20%.”
“Let me just say it again. We could be reducing property taxes across the board in Cochise County, the entire county, by 20% to offset for the revenue here, because we can’t spend all that money. So, we have to give that money back to the taxpayers. The law says we have to.”
“So, you could see a potential significant impact to local property taxes. What that is, I don’t know. We’re going to have to do the math on it. But the law, if we have this large increase in property tax revenue, we have to balance those rates. So that will reduce dramatically the property tax burden of every resident in the county.”
“The construction sales tax, which also is the TPT, the transaction privilege tax, the retail tax, and the jail excise tax. So that will be part of the construction tax. We could literally use that money to pay the jail off in 2 to 3 years, as opposed to the 13 to 20 years.”
“So this could be a revenue to eliminate the half-cent sales tax in 2 to 3 years. We can get rid of that half-cent sales tax.”
Cut teacher pay.
Bill Maher and Coleman Hughes finish each other's sentences for 3 minutes straight as they lay out how teachers' unions wrecked public education.
The MS NOW host thought she could sit this one out quietly. Then Maher turned and lobbed a grenade right at her.
MAHER: "The reason why they don't know that socialism didn't work... is because NOBODY taught them in school."
HUGHES: "A lot of kids go to underperforming public schools, which is our euphemism for government-funded daycare centers with occasional school-like activities."
MAHER: "I knew they weren't learning anything, but like you said, it's like a daycare center and not a good one."
HUGHES: "And I think people on the left want to blame funding because that's the easy issue. But the truth is, this school was well funded. You know, it's 50,000 per pupil at this school. The problem isn't the funding. It's that you can't fire anyone bad."
MAHER: "Yes.... The problem is the union, the teachers union, is too powerful. We've seen it in results in states where the union is less powerful, the schools do better."
HUGHES: "I call it the chalkboard mafia."
MAHER: "The problem, the unions protect bad schools and bad teachers, and the party protects the union. It's almost impossible in a lot of these cities to fire a teacher. I mean literally like you could sell drugs to a kid and it's got to be two offenses before we get—"
HUGHES: "It wasn't that long ago that the unions lobbied for a law in New York State to ban even collecting data that you would use to assess which teachers are better than others. You can't even get the data. So obviously the teachers union serves the teachers, they don't serve the students, and if you're a Democrat or any American that's serious about public school reform, you have to challenge the teachers union, period."
MAHER: "And I think in this school, where they were learning nothing with no supervision and absentee principals and teachers, I think spending 50,000 dollars per year per student, it's not money. That's what you always hear from the left. 'Oh, it's underfunded.' It's not the funding. The funding isn't the issue."
HUGHES: "No, it hasn't been for a very long time."
MAHER: "I think this is the kind of thing I will NEVER hear on MS NOW."
ALI VITALI: "I think you hear a lot of perspectives on MS NOW."
MAHER: "I don't ever hear that one."
CONTEXT: Maher and Hughes aren't making this up. On the latest Nation's Report Card, high school seniors posted the lowest reading and math scores ever recorded on the test.
And getting rid of bad teachers is nearly impossible. Federal survey data shows the average school district dismissed just 0.2 tenured teachers for poor performance in a year. That's roughly 1 in 500.
Meanwhile, students do better long-term in states where unions have less power.
A 2019 study in the American Economic Journal found that boys who went to school in states that forced districts to bargain with teachers' unions went on to earn about $2,100 LESS per year as adults compared to boys in states without those laws.
If a business failed this badly, someone would get fired. As Hughes put it: "The teachers union serves the teachers; they don't serve the students."

Spectacular, incredible, magnificent.
More than a dozen flight tests and years of development, with countless hours worked by SpaceX engineers and technicians, all come down to this: the first orbital Starship launch carrying advanced Starlink satellites bound for space.

Along with the demise of the psycho-woke version of Teen Vogue, one hopes this augurs a turn in the zeitgeist back towards sanity.
BTW, it would be interesting to measure the extent to which Teen Vogue’s psycho-woke years are responsible for the massive leftward shift of young white women and their concomitantly epidemic levels of mental illness.
Salon, one of the first online news publications and liberal blogs on the web, announced it was ceasing publication after a 31-year run.

This needs to be explained.
🚨REAL TIME GA Election Fraud🚨
November 5th Case 3,360 - 4,857 - Multiple Counties GA DOAA invalid REAL ID registrants that received credit for a vote.
Another category the ORR GA DOAA provided us was Registrations that contained an invalid REAL ID.
Did you read that. INVALID REAL ID numbers. We joined that with the SoS Voter History File and the voter rolls.
1,498 more unlawful votes on unlawful registrations.
Notice in the sample below the number of registrations that ARE NOT on the voter roll but were dropped in for a vote. SoS KNOWS they are unlawful and he is using them to alter elections.
Almost 5,000 unlawful votes for today. We will join you again tomorrow. Share everywhere!

Cut teacher pay.
Most people do not realize just how easy the AP exams have gotten. They are not college level.
Why/how have they become so easy? What's going on?
This might shock you... A brutal new piece in Education Next just dropped, saying the decline in rigor of the AP in the last two decades is, in large part, because the content has been GUTTED. For example:
— AP Biology cut 40% of its material
— Required lines from the Aeneid in AP Latin halved
— Spanish Lit reading list cut from 56 works to 38
Then the questions themselves have become absurdly easier. Readability measures show English passages have fallen multiple grade levels, and some now include footnotes defining basic words...
A 2025 AP English prompt included footnote definitions for words like "optimism" and "pessimism."
At the same time, scoring was recalibrated so that more students pass: guessing penalties disappeared, rubrics grew more generous, readers were told to give students the benefit of the doubt, etc. — "no one at College Board had any incentive to maintain rigor."
College professors are now seeing students arrive with AP credit who lack basic content knowledge and writing ability. The College Board insists the exams have not become easier, but everybody familiar with them knows they've become an absolute joke.
Advanced Placement is no longer advanced. This is not college level.
It must be replaced.
These policies have been tried, and they have been a spectacular failure for public safety.
Rudy Giuliani cleaned up NYC with aggressive enforcement against petty offenses. Now the incoming AG wants to essentially decriminalize them.
This a very bad omen of where we are headed in Georgia.
Meet the new Attorney General of Georgia, Tanya Miller. Here are her views:
-Opposes Incarceration for Minor Offenses: Miller argues that forcing individuals accused of low-level. nonviolent offenses to remain in pre- trial detention simply because they cannot afford bail is counterproductive.
-Pre-Trial Detention Concerns: She has cited criminal justice data stating that "the more time they spend in pre-trial detention increases the probability of re-arrest."
-Impact on the Poor: She has labeled strict mandates on cash bail as the "criminalization of poverty", noting that people can be stranded in jail for low-level crimes that do not even carry prison time upon conviction.
