This is quite the development

NY Post: "Immigrant-led business group votes to sue NYC over Mamdani’s taxpayer-funded grocery stores, alleging unfair competition."
An immigrant-led business group is gearing up to sue New York City over Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s controversial plan to open five taxpayer-funded supermarkets — claiming the $70 million project will create unfair competition for nearby stores, The Post has learned.

As the far-left mayor announced new details of his plan this week — including a 30% discount on basic items like produce, meat, milk, cheese and bread – the Multicultural Business Coalition’s board voted to file a lawsuit in the coming weeks to block the pricey initiative, the group’s chairman Frank Garcia told The Post. 
This whole government-run grocery store is so incredibly stupid on so many levels.

Never enough

Jonathan Turley: "The Fair Share Myth and Other Socialist Fables"
The fair share myth is a virtual mantra among socialist and Democratic leaders, from Mamdani to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) to Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.). In my book, “Rage and the Republic,” I address the false claim that the wealthy are not “paying their fair share.” In fact, the top 10 percent already pay more taxes than the bottom 90 percent combined.

In 2023, the top 1 percent paid an estimated 38.4 percent of all federal individual income taxes. One can certainly raise the need for additional taxes to support public works, but it is simple demagoguery to claim that the wealthy do not pay their fair share when the top 10 percent pay an estimated 75 percent of federal income taxes. The U.S. income tax system is already the most progressive in the developed world, even before additional New York state and city taxes are added in.
Turley also exposes the myth of the Nordic countries, always held up as "socialism" while their own leaders declare "we're not socialists."

Looks like they ran out of other people's money

Townhall: "Democrats Mortgage Headquarters for $15 Million to Bail Out of Their Financial Fiasco."

That's the real crime

The Enterprise: "The Outsider the WNBA Cannot Forgive: The Caitlin Clark Problem."
The WNBA was handed the thing it had awaited for three decades, a player who could make the country care, and the country did. The arenas filled, the networks bid against one another, and the money came in torrents. At the precise moment the league should have been raising walls around the source of all of it, it kept reaching, instead, for the knife. Revealed preference is a stern teacher. Watch what the league does, not what it says, and you will know what it has decided Caitlin Clark is worth. So you may be asking what the real issue is and the answer to me is clear - the league is struggling with the fact that it took a straight white woman to make it relevant.
Sophie "The Pointer" Cunningham is coming up strong, too. 

At least she answered the questions

Red State: "DSA Co-Chair Confirms Its Extreme Agenda in Stunning Admission on Live TV."

The Sunday morning shows have become unwatchable because guests are asked simple questions and they inevitably respond with stump speeches and non-answers.  At least this woman laid it on the line.

Oh, sure, it's the cancer

Washington Post: "The shrinking world of former president Joe Biden - Cancer treatment has sharply limited Biden’s post-White House life even as his upcoming memoir threatens to reopen debates over his health and presidency."

You know I have no interest in talking about Joe Biden anymore (although I'll be interested to see how he rationalizes his Presidency in his memoir) but this gaslighting by the mainstream media is beyond the pale.  Biden isn't hiding because of his cancer.  He's hiding because he has been brain-addled for a very long time which is why he avoided the press for his entire Administration.

Quarterback on Netflix

I'm currently about halfway through "Quarterback" on Netflix and I just need to say this: Joe Flacco is just about the coolest guy in the NFL.  This guy has played on half the teams in the entire NFL but he steps up every time.  A true professional.

The paper of record

Babylon Bee: "Trump Asks Democrats At Correspondents' Dinner To Hold All Assassination Attempts Until He Finishes Speech." 

Code word: Madagascar

Legal Insurrection: "College Professor’s Clever AI Trap Uncovers Rampant Cheating" - “The average grade was 96, with 40 students obtaining a perfect score. That compared to a midterm average ranging between 65 and 80 in previous years.”

Genius: he posted in white text a nonsense instruction to include the word "Madagascar" in an essay about the Industrial Revolution.  Thirty-two students just cut and pasted it into AI and spit out an essay they didn't even bother to proofread.

These two clowns

Reason: "Zohran Mamdani Tells Jon Stewart Socialism Is Just Having a Library - Please stop letting these people lie about what their preferred economic system entails." 

Can we all appreciate the courage of Mamdani to appear on Jon Stewart's hard-hitting interview show?  So brave.  So stunning.

Makes sense to me, what's your problem?

Legal Insurrection: "Columnist Invokes Emmitt Till Murder to Attack Caitlin Clark - You know, just when I thought leftists couldn’t sink any lower, they do."

I don't even blame the columnist.  I blame the so-called editors at USA Today who allowed this tripe to be published in a national newspaper.

Elon to media: you suck

Red State: "Boom: Elon Delivers Mic Drop Moment Against the Media During Fiery Interview."

$17 for a Subway sub

That's it: the headline is the story.

I was in a hurry tonight so I got a footlong BMT and with tip it was $17 and change.  Maybe that's why the store was completely empty at 6:30pm.  I know the days of the "$5 footlong" are long past but, c'mon man.

Frankenstein's monster

Sasha Stone: "The Democrats Have a Communist Problem"
I’ve said it many times, and it only gets truer by the day: there is no saving the Left. There is only saving America from them. Godspeed, Republicans, Conservatives, and MAGA.

They made this bed. All of them called Trump a fascist for ten years too. They have dropped the seeds into this fertile ground. They should not be that surprised that weeds are cropping up that are too strong and too fast-moving to stop, even if they will kill the garden.
We're entering an election season where Democrats are going to have to show up at debates and answer simple questions like "is Benjamin Netanyahu a war criminal?" or "should we enforce immigration laws?" or "should biological men be allowed in women's sports?"

And they won't answer.  Their only goal is to get through 90 minutes without ever having to explain where they stand on any position.

Like this:

Theater kids

Fox News: "Mamdani sets internet ablaze with video explaining cave on plan to arrest Netanyahu: 'What a joke'."

Just playing to the anti-Jewish base, that one.

Another masterful interrogation from Gill

Legal Insurrection: "White Supremacy, Mickey Mouse, Politeness: Rep. Gill Takes on Smithsonian Director - “Ma’am, are you a white supremacist?
GILL: Yes, under your leadership, it has been used as a reference. Is Mickey Mouse racist?

HARTIG: Mickey Mouse is not racist.
That's a relief.
