We’ve still got plenty of snow around here, but for whatever reason, I woke up at 3AM in the very best mood!

And then, around 5AM, when I stepped out onto the kitchen porch to feed my outside cats — wow, the moon looked incredible, peeking through the bare limbs of the trees across the way, and some stars were out and the sky was a perfect shade of deep blue, a couple of clouds floating around.

It was incredible. It really took my breath away.

And, ironically, for the first time in several weeks, I no longer felt like I was suffocating.

Okay. I hope you’re feeling just as good wherever you are today.

I have a phone meeting with Peitor shortly, so this will be brief.

On Friday, il donaldo trumpo posted the popcorn meme again! But I think he was referring to the lawfare thing, the fake sentencing. Nothing to do with LA.

WE’RE GONNA NEED MORE POPCORN!!!🍿🍿🍿 (20 seconds):

And then right after that — what happened?

Yes, Jack Smith “has resigned”.

BYE BYE, LOSER!!!🤣🤣🤣 (24 seconds):

Apparently, Jack Smith’s recent execution at Gitmo is interfering with his ability to show up for work…..

And yesterday, Charlie Ward’s newsletter had more updates on the fake “climate change”.

“Antarctica Sea Ice Recovery Exposes
Alarmist Hysteria

[…] Headlines screamed about “mind-blowing” declines, with experts warning of catastrophic consequences for the planet. Yet, by the end of 2024, Antarctica’s sea ice extent was back to the 1981–2010 average, a sharp reminder of natural variability—something scientists understand but alarmists conveniently ignore.

[…] This isn’t the first time extreme highs and lows in Antarctic ice have been documented. Historical data shows similar fluctuations in the 1960s. Yet, media and activist scientists jump on short-term dips to fuel their Net Zero crusade, disregarding the cyclical nature of climate systems.

Even the British Antarctic Survey recently claimed 2023’s ice lows were a “once-in-2,000-year event” without climate change based on questionable computer models, of course. Unsurprisingly, mainstream outlets have ignored the 2024 recovery, just as they brushed aside coral reef growth that disproved prior doom-mongering.

This saga highlights how narrative-driven commentators twist transient weather events into crises, sidelining robust science for apocalyptic propaganda. Antarctica’s climate story, once a cornerstone of alarmism, is now a glaring example of natural variation overlooked in favour of Net Zero hysteria.”
