We stopped here to show you Kathy Hochul's green energy agenda up close: broken promises, wasted money, and a $4,000-a-year bill headed straight for your family. Hochul hiked utility rates 36 times. She can't even make it to a rest stop. We're ending the green energy scam on Day 1.

Doctor: "Your LDL is still high. I'm adding a second statin." Patient: "I'm already on one. My legs ache." Doctor: "That's a known side effect. I'll add CoQ10." Patient: "And I'm tired all the time." Doctor: "Fatigue is common. I'll add modafinil." Patient: "My memory is foggy." Doctor: "Cognitive effects can occur. Donepezil should help." Patient: "I have a cough now." Doctor: "That'll be the ACE inhibitor I prescribed last visit. We'll swap it for an ARB." Patient: "I'm not sleeping." Doctor: "Zopiclone." Patient: "Heard that's addictive." Doctor: "We'll taper you with mirtazapine when the time comes." Patient: "My blood sugar has gone up." Doctor: "Statins can do that. Metformin." Patient: "I get diarrhoea on metformin." Doctor: "Loperamide." Patient: "I've gained weight." Doctor: "Ozempic." Patient: "I feel nauseous." Doctor: "Ondansetron." Patient: "I don't want to be on twelve medications." Doctor: "Anxiety is common at this stage. I'll add sertraline." Patient: "What if I just stopped the statin?" Doctor: "Absolutely not."

Remember Asia Bibi, a Pakistani Christian woman who spent 8 years on death row after being accused of “blasphemy” for drinking water from a Muslim’s cup. Asia was working in the fields with her Muslim coworkers. She got thirsty and went to fetch water from the well, where she took a drink with an old metal cup she had found. That’s all it took. Christians are considered dirty and impure in Islam, and she was accused of attempting to contaminate the Muslims’ water just by drinking from their cup. She was sentenced to death by hanging. The governor of her province voiced opposition to the verdict and was assassinated by his own bodyguard. When she was finally acquitted in 2018 due to international pressure, tens of thousands of Muslims rioted, demanding her immediate execution. A local poll found that 10 MILLION Pakistanis would personally kill her if given the chance. Just for drinking water from a Muslim’s cup. Her lawyer had to flee the country. And after months in hiding, she was finally able to escape Pakistan and received asylum in Canada. This is Pakistan, where non-Muslims live under the constant threat of death. The more I learn about this country, the more it just feels like ISIS with a formal government.

Elon Musk just reduced American crime politics to a single question on Joe Rogan. And answered it like it was arithmetic. Musk: “While obviously not everyone who’s a Democrat is a criminal, almost everyone who is a criminal is a Democrat.” That’s not a partisan attack. That’s an observation about how incentives work. If you’re a criminal, you don’t vote for the party promising longer sentences and more cops. You vote for the one gutting bail laws and calling enforcement racist. This isn’t opinion. This is game theory. Musk: “Because the Democrats are the soft-on-crime party. So if you’re a criminal, who are you gonna vote for?” Nobody wants to follow that logic to its conclusion. But the math doesn’t care. The softness isn’t accidental. It’s architectural. No-cash bail. Decriminalized theft. Sanctuary cities. Defund the police. These aren’t compassion. They’re infrastructure. Every policy that removes consequences builds a constituency that needs them to stay gone. That’s not ideology. That’s customer acquisition. You don’t protect criminals because you care about them. You protect them because they show up in November. The people paying the price are never the ones writing the policy. It’s the working-class neighborhoods getting hollowed out. The immigrant families who played by the rules watching the system reward the ones who broke them. The small business owners boarding up windows because the DA won’t prosecute. They’ll spend the next week calling Musk reckless for this. But he didn’t build the incentive structure. He just described it. And that’s what they’ll never forgive.

I left NYC after working on an undercover report at Columbia. I was threatened, and my life was at risk. This all started the day after October 7. They already knew what was going to happen, and they were ready to accuse Israel of genocide the very next day. My life completely changed. I was battling cancer at the time, but I knew I needed to get out of the city. Things only got worse for me, and after two years, I finally left. The city is getting worse every day. Many crimes go unreported. It is time for the administration to step up and send ICE, federal agents, and, if necessary, the National Guard. This is not going to remain a local issue. If no one does anything, it will spread across the country like a plague.

Activist: "You kill animals. I don't." Farmer: "You eat bread?" Activist: "Sourdough." Farmer: "Where did the wheat come from?" Activist: "A farm." Farmer: "A ploughed field. Ploughed in spring, killing every vole, mouse, shrew, ground-nesting bird, and beetle that lived there over winter." Activist: "That's incidental." Farmer: "Every spring. Every August. The combine comes through at 12 mph and anything that hadn't already left gets mulched into the straw." Activist: "But I'm not killing them on purpose." Farmer: "You're paying someone to kill them on purpose. They just don't put it on the bag." Activist: "It's still less death than meat." Farmer: "A field of wheat feeds you for about ten days. A cow feeds you for six months. The vegan death toll per calorie is genuinely worse, you've just outsourced it to a machine." Activist: "I prefer the machine." Farmer: "I prefer the meadow that hasn't been ploughed in ninety years."

I was on a train in Tokyo. We stopped between stations. Announcement in Japanese, then in English: "We apologize for the delay. We will resume shortly." The delay was maybe 3 minutes. Not a big deal. When the train started moving again, another announcement: "We sincerely apologize for the delay. We were stopped for 3 minutes and 20 seconds. This is unacceptable. Thank you for your patience." Three minutes and twenty seconds. They measured it exactly. And called it unacceptable. When I got off at my stop, there were station staff on the platform bowing and handing out delay certificates. I took one out of curiosity. It was an official document stating that the train had been delayed by 3 minutes and 20 seconds, signed and stamped. The staff member said in English "for your employer. So they know the delay was not your fault." I said I'm a tourist, I don't need it. He looked confused. "But the delay affected you. You deserve an apology." Three minutes. They were treating a three-minute delay like a major incident. Later I mentioned this to a Japanese friend. They said "oh yes, delay certificates are normal. Trains are supposed to be exactly on time. If they are late, they must apologize." I said three minutes isn't late, it's nothing. My friend said "in Japan, three minutes is late. On time means on time. Not approximately on time." They said the train company probably investigated why there was a 3-minute delay. "They will find the cause and fix it so it doesn't happen again." I kept the certificate. It's framed in my apartment now. A reminder that somewhere in the world, people care about three minutes. © 6IX.

Christmas, 1967. Vietnam. Bob Hope cracks a joke. Then the ground erupts. Rocket impact. The stage shakes. 10,000 troops hit the dirt — mud, helmets, silence. Secret Service and MPs rush him. “Sir, we’re evacuating. Now.” Bob Hope steps back to the mic. He looks at 10,000 men flat on Christmas Day, 9,000 miles from their kids, and says: “Relax, fellas. If they’re shooting at us, that means we’re the most important people in the world.” The mud laughs. Then stands up. And the show goes on. That wasn’t bravery for cameras. That was Tuesday for Bob Hope. 1941: He starts with 300 soldiers in California. Sees their faces. Gets addicted. “I looked at them, they laughed at me, and it was love at first sight,” he said. He never kicked it. So he chased the wars. North Africa, 1943 — while the desert was still on fire. South Pacific, 1944 — island to island, with snipers in the trees. Korea, 1950 — performing in parkas, breath freezing on the mic. Vietnam, 1964–1972 — every. single. Christmas. No five-star hotels. He flew in C-130s with the troops. Ate what they ate. Slept on cots that smelled like mildew and diesel. And he brought backup: Ann-Margret, Raquel Welch, Joey Heatherton. Why? Because “a girl in sequins on a plywood stage in a war zone isn’t a show. It’s a reminder. That home is real. That you’re going back.” He wasn’t drafted. He wasn’t paid extra. He turned down millions to spend Christmas with strangers who had rifles. 31 Christmases in a row. 1942 to 1972. No breaks. No excuses. Your dad missed one Christmas for work and you still bring it up. Bob Hope missed 31 with his wife and kids… on purpose. And when the wars “ended”? He kept going. 1983: Beirut, days after 241 Marines were killed. 1987: Persian Gulf. 1990: Desert Storm. He was 87. Eighty. Seven. Four wars. Five decades. 11–15 million troops. He buried friends. He flew through flak. He told jokes while doctors did triage 50 feet away. A reporter asked him after that rocket attack: “Why risk it? You could do this in Vegas.” Hope smiled. “Because Christmas in a war zone is when a laugh weighs the most.” He died in 2003 at 100 years old. No one remembers his monologue timing. They remember the sound of hope — literal Hope — cutting through artillery. He never fired a shot. But he stood on more battlefields than most generals. He never wore a uniform. But he showed up more than anyone who did. On the one day a year when being away from home breaks you… he was there. 31 times. That’s not a career. That’s a commitment.

HOLY COW: Bombshell data from the IRS has left NY Governor Kathy Hochul speechless. Between 2020-2024, 892 companies escaped from New York - along with $47 BILLION in income with them. Here's where they went: • Florida: 341 companies • Texas: 187 • North Carolina: 129 But guess what - it's no longer just billionaires. We're talking about middle-class professionals, small business owners, and families desperate to flee the taxes, regulations and unsafe state. Remember when Hochul made fun of them? “Just get on a bus.” Well.... they did. REPOST and get the data out there! #thinblueline #lawenforcement

@Keir_Starmer @hrkbenowen And I thought you’d already done that. Or are you going to keep trying to sweep it under the rug that you care more about immigrants that terrorize young women than the women themselves.

We will block far right agitators from traveling to Britain this weekend for a march designed to confront and provoke our diverse capital city. We will not allow people to come to the UK, threaten our communities and spread hate on our streets.

Should probably mention I only slept for real like two hours last night because my Casper dog has been having diarrhea, so I was up with him when he needed to go out... and up even when he slept and didn't need to. It can be scary for any dog to have diarrhea, but especially scary for a diabetic dog. So I was up most of the night just keeping an eye on my boy. He had a little bit more this morning, but it seems to be winding down, I hope. He's getting a probiotic and smaller meals (he cannot go without food as he needs it for his insulin), and resting well. All of that being said, I might be a little bit crabby today. Crabbier than usual, that is. :)

If I was coming to the United Kingdom to impose Sharia Law, marry my cousin, start a grooming gang, rape some women & maybe a domestic pet or two, and claim benefits and free housing… Keir Starmer would welcome me with open arms. Because I was coming there to give a speech denouncing those things, I’ve been banned from the country by the Prime Minister himself. He said as much in his speech today. The decision came right from the top. Absolute insanity! TAKE YOUR COUNTRY BACK!
