Marjorie Taylor Greene, the sharp-mouthed-yet-dull-minded congresswoman from Georgia, captured her first modicum of fame as one of MAGA’s most boisterous boosters. She booed Joe Biden, swooned for Donald Trump, and had a weird catfight with fellow GOP congresswoman Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.). Even in a profession overwrought with outlandish egos, naked ambition, and delusions of grandeur, MTG managed to stand out.
The Trump administration has an opportunity to leverage its tariff policy to force market reform on Asian nations – both allies and adversaries. When the President travels to Asia for trade talks with China and to attend the Southeast Asian Nations summit in Malaysia, he needs to communicate to the government of South Korea that any strengthening of the traditional alliance between the two countries hinges on the respect for the rule of law. Right now, South Korea has some challenges in that particular area.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) just took action to prevent illegal aliens from receiving taxpayer-subsidized healthcare through federal programs.
News from Cambridge that they may have detected biochemical signatures on a relatively nearby exoplanet has altered the solution probabilities to the Fermi paradox. The New York Times writes that “a team of researchers is offering what it contends is the strongest indication yet of extraterrestrial life, not in our solar system but on a massive planet, known as K2-18b, that orbits a star 120 light-years from Earth. A repeated analysis of the exoplanet’s atmosphere suggests an abundance of a molecule that on Earth has only one known source: living organisms such as marine algae.”

What are your tuition dollars buying these days? Well, let’s see. At the University of South Carolina, you can learn all about how “Islamic Magic” can be used both as a weapon against the evil Western world and a remedy for the damage it has done. Yes, this is the kind of thinking that gets formerly ordinary kids joining Antifa and living in pup-tents for Hamas.
On Tuesday, the Los Angeles City Council formalized what had long been an unofficial policy. By a unanimous vote, the council declared Los Angeles to be a “sanctuary city” in which municipal resources may not be used in the service of immigration enforcement. In practical terms, the declaration will have little effect, as the Los Angeles Police Department has been constrained from immigration enforcement since 1979, at which time Special Order 40 was instituted by then-chief Daryl Gates.
