Spirit Airlines died tonight at the hands of the socialist crusader, Elizabeth Warren She must be so proud to add another casket to her achievements. Tonight at 3am, Spirit turns off the lights. 14,000 jobs gone. 30+ smaller airports lose service. JetBlue offered $3.8 BILLION in cash to buy Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, flight attendants union, literally everyone voted yes. The combined company would have held 9% of the US market against a Big 4 that already owned 80%. For anyone who understands numbers: 9% isn’t a monopoly against 80%. Warren said no. She wrote letters. She pressured Buttigieg. Biden’s DOJ sued. A federal judge killed the deal in January 2024. Her argument: the merger would cost consumers $1 billion a year. Now look at her collateral damage she dusts under the rug. 510 pilots gone in the months after. 1,800 flight attendants furloughed in December. 14,000 jobs in 2023. 7,500 last week. Zero tonight. And that’s just the people in Spirit uniforms. Catering goes. Fuel guys go. Baggage crews, gate agents, airport coffee shops, hotels and rental cars in 70 cities Spirit flew to. Every airline job carries 3 more on its back. 40,000 people out of work because of one woman’s moronic crusade against the market. And the math ain’t mathing. Spirit abandoned 90 routes during the death spiral. Fares on those routes are up 14% on average. Oakland to Newark: $135 to $288. Fort Myers to San Juan: $92 to $219. Kansas City to Newark up 66%. That’s reality. Not some BS number from a “study.” So @SenWarren tell me how this saves the consumer money? Cheap carriers in a market drop fares 21% across the board. Southwest did this in the 90s and saved Americans $68 BILLION over 20 years. Warren killed it. That’s what moronic politicians led by socialism do. Then with her own blind arrogance, she tweeted Spirit’s collapse is “a Biden win for flyers.” A win. 14,000 people are reading termination letters tonight. And she’s taking credit. This is socialism in 2026. A senator who’s never made payroll thinks she knows how to run a market better than the people who own and work in the company. She saved you a billion on imaginary paper. She cost you ten times that in real life. She didn’t protect consumers from anything. 14,000+ will go from working to welfare. She will make sure to blame billionaires, hardworking tax payers, AI, capitalism and whatever monster they will make up tomorrow hiding under your bed. Higher taxes. Fewer jobs. More expensive everything. She called it a win. I hope you enjoy winning.

Let's talk about the opening part of this statement: "nobody is illegal on stolen land." We can break it down, but we should also know what it is. What we are looking at is Chinese-style political sloganeering called "tifa" (提法). Communist communications ever since Mao took over China (and the CCP before that) almost always follow this kind of formulation, called 提法 (tífǎ), which literally translates as "watchwords" or "slogans." Literally, it means to lift up or present or highlight the core message or political principle in play through a charged slogan. The purpose of the sloganeering is actually to do a kind of political engineering through carefully selected and weaponized words that are easily memorable and that hijack the critical thinking faculties of the people who both hear and repeat them so they'll advance the Party line. You can think of tifa quite literally as a form of "discourse engineering" with the intent of doing political engineering or political warfare more or less by hijacking people's brains through mystifying slogans. (Mystification is like a more powerful form of confusion, akin to having been put under a spell.) In his amazing analysis of the CCP in the early 1950s, just after Mao took power (in October 1949), psychologist Robert Jay Lifton referred to what amounts to tifa as "thought-terminating clichés." That is, they're slogans (or clichés) that have the power to turn off your ability to think clearly about what's being said and implied and to just go along with the political messaging rather than to question it. The mechanisms of these political warfare tools are mystification and rhetorical entrapment. Mystification is overriding critical thinking with carefully constructed falsehoods and framing. Rhetorical entrapment occurs when there's no easy way to disagree with the framing (think, "black lives matter" or "Christ is king" (as the Groypers use it), both of which are examples of tifa). The mystification part is a process of using carefully constructed falsehoods presented as truisms that undermine the critical thinking process. That is, the statements can be seen as "obviously" true in a particular way that disguises how they are false in another way. For example, black lives obviously matter, but supporting the organization is something people should not do. The statement "nobody is illegal on stolen land" is very sophisticated as tifa because it contains three mystifications in just six words: 1) "Nobody is illegal" confuses the distinction between being a human being of basic human dignity and being a citizen of a country or legal visitor there; 2) "Stolen land" confuses the legitimacy of the country in question; 3) The idea of being able to be legal or illegal if the country itself is not legal because it is "stolen land." This is distinct from the idea of the land itself being stolen because it conceptually bridges the concept of legality and legitimacy of the country. As you can tell, breaking down and explaining the failures of all three parts of this mystification (demystification) is both challenging and exhausting, and it takes so much space that most people will not engage with it due to its length (which will be three orders of magnitude greater (5000-6000 words) than the tifa itself (6 words) to explicate fully and two orders of magnitude greater (600-800 words) just to barely articulate). Raise these by another order of magnitude of effort or two for the argument that will follow the attempt to demystify. The point is that to fully engage a six-word tifa through explanation, discussion, and argument to try to break someone free of it might take 50-100 thousand words worth of effort by the time all is said and done. (Another example: "trans women are women"; look how much effort that one has taken!) This example of tifa also contains two rhetorical traps that derive from the first two mystifications: A) It dares critics to say that people themselves are illegal (illegitimate) because of a political circumstance, thus replacing a legalistic fact with a moral assertion, one that is difficult to litigate without considerable expertise and that might still lose on emotional appeal ("empathy"); B) It lures critics into litigating the legality of the establishment of the nation in question, which undermines the justified presumption of authority in the national concept. These rhetorical traps not only put critics in a bad, weak, and likely losing position from the start, but they also invite adopting a reactionary or chauvinistic stance as the only possible reply (e.g., "we aren't colonizers; we're conquerors" or "illegals are illegitimate"). This feeds the strategic principle of "your target's reaction is your real action" upon which these manipulative movements gain the most ground. In short, tifa like this hijacks the capacity to understand the situation correctly in a succinct, repeatable phrase even Billie Eilish can repeat in about a second and a half (confuses and mystifies) while arranging a sophisticated psychological and public opinion trap that is mostly lose-lose-lose for those who would object. Notice that through the application of tifa as a form of political warfare (public opinion warfare, specifically), any idiot (including the average Billie Eilish fan) can ensnare any good-faith actor in this very sophisticated political warfare device even without understanding in the slightest how it works, dragging them into either confusion or arguments meant to be fought on losing ground for the good-faith critic. You don't need a sophisticated political warfare operator to make this happen. Furthermore, notice that any idiot who falls for the tifa here will actually repeat it, making the slogan campaign viral so that it is mostly being fought out not by experts but by masses of laypeople who know there's a fight but who aren't properly equipped to deal with it. This is why it is an example of "public opinion warfare" as one of the CCP's "three warfares" doctrine styles. As summarized by the RAND Corporation: "Tifa have four identifying characteristics: (1) They are politically laden and stated verbatim, (2) they extend along a clear line of authority, (3) they are distributed to official party organs, and (4) they characterize or resolve a dialectical contradiction between competing ideas in the CCP." Engaging with this kind of slogan, as we must, brings critics into a "dialectical space" that's roughly on the level of the average idiot who can argue emotively or even just repeat the slogan as a kind of verbal cudgel (for those watching) rather than genuinely engaging. We might call this the "Reeeeee! Effect," and we all know it works very well. Tifa creates the "Reeeeee! Effect." Since the late 1960s, almost all "New Leftist" activism in the West runs on a Maoist-Marxist engine, including the heavy use of tifa sloganeering as a form of rhetorical and political warfare. Most of what we engage in today with their B.S. rhetoric is tifa. So these "thought-terminating clichés" (tifa) are very powerful and sophisticated political warfare tools that we all encounter every day. The only way to beat them is to identify them for the manipulations they are and explain them as best we can so that people are more likely to identify them and less likely to fall for them, and also to help people out of the ones they're already caught in and under the spell of.

🚨 IT JUST GOT A LOT STRANGER - ERIKA KIRK… THE REAL ESTATE AGENT?? After the assassination of Charlie Kirk, people began combing through timelines, behavior, and digital footprints. That’s when this resurfaced. Live, publicly visible Zillow, Realtor .com and other profiles under her previous name, Erika Frantzve. The Zillow profile lists her as working for Corcoran Group, the firm founded by Shark Tank star Barbara Corcoran. Old, but not deleted. Salesperson license inactive yet the profile is publicly visible. And the bio is… unusual. It states she lived and worked in China in the entertainment industry. Not traveled. Worked. It also says she founded and runs a 501(c)(3) nonprofit operating for over a decade, with a long standing partnership with the United States Marine Corps, and that the organization expanded into China and Costa Rica, while operating in the U.S. and Romania. Read that again. China. Romania. U.S. Marine Corps partnership. International nonprofit operations. People are asking why an old identity tying China based work, military partnerships, and international operations is quietly sitting online, untouched. At what point does a resume start looking like something else?

@Shared_Boat No, I'm being sarcastic. He gets way more credit here than he deserves, and I really wish he'd stop talking about the issue. Real people did real work on it at real risk and cost, and he gets their credit and their paycheck. It's serious bullshit.

Thanks for your helpful synopsis, Matt.
Matt Walsh@MattWalshBlog

With a detransitioner winning a 2 million dollar medical malpractice settlement (which should have been 100 times higher), the total collapse of the trans movement is officially upon us. In the next few years, every Frankenstein gender butcher and perverted "medical professional" who profited off of the sexual mutilation of children will be sued into oblivion. The story should end with these mad scientists convicted in a court of law and hanging from the gallows. Instead it will end with them bankrupted and disgraced, which isn't as good but will have to be good enough. As the years pass, those who supported this madness will quietly retreat and pretend that none of this ever happened, or at least that they had no hand in it. We shouldn't let them. The trans movement will go down as the most deranged form of mass hysteria that human civilization has ever seen. We should make sure that history accurately records who went along with it and who had the courage to stand against it, even when the hysteria was at its peak and there was little to be gained, and much to lose, in doing so. The people who fell on the wrong side of this issue should never be trusted again. They should be shamed and disgraced and forced to live with the humiliation for the rest of their days. We cannot stop the rats from fleeing the ship. But we can remember their names .

I wonder how much of this history is being taught in our progressive schools? Probably not much. Working class British people deserve more than the contempt they’re given by government and liberal shills who hate us. Britain deserves better.

The Doomsday Clock is a symbolic warning created in 1947 by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, showing how close humanity is to global catastrophe from threats like nuclear war, climate change, AI, and pandemics. It's set by the Bulletin's Science and Security Board, a group of experts who consult Nobel laureates and meet twice yearly. As of Jan 27, 2026, it's at 85 seconds to midnight—the closest ever—due to rising nuclear risks, unregulated AI, and bio threats.
