Stephen Kruiser does a good job of highlighting just how out-of-touch the Dems are: 

After losing an election because the American electorate thought that the Democratic Party had lost its way on every front — especially when it came to radicalism — the Dems elected Minnesota's Ken Martin to be its new helmsman. Nothing says, "We understand the concerns of regular Americans in flyover country," like choosing a member of the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party from the state that's given us Keith Ellison and Ilhan Omar. 

And then there's the guy they brought in as vice chair, David Hogg. How on earth did he rise to such a position? Who is buttering his bread, so to speak?

How many boxes of Kleenex did the New York Times go through to write their article Most Americans Say the Democratic Party Does Not Share Their Priorities? Because writing stuff like this had to hurt them bunches.

How many people knew that Americans were being held hostage in Venezuela (and Ric Grennell got them released, as well as making Venezuela take back their people when they are repatriated)? Or Belarus? Because that's the thing that I keep considering when I hear this news. The Biden Administration hid so much and it's only coming to light now. I'm almost afraid something much bigger will be released.

Are you frustrated doing Google searches because of the AI results now pasted at the top every time? If so, start cursing at Google. Well, type it, but still, that will help. 

That is your technology PSA of the day.

The Democrat Party we knew is dead.

It has been completely overtaken by Marxists / Leninists / Maoists.

USAID headquarters in Washington are blocked after Musk says Trump agrees to close the aid agency

Boom? That's it? No discussion? Wow. When will the weeping and gnashing of teeth end? 

(I'm not a fan of this department and I'm quite glad if it does shut down completely. But this is a seriously ballsy move.)

Oh, good job, Canada: 

Survey: Nearly Half of Canadian Businesses Plan to Move Production to the U.S — 60% Are Looking for Business Acquisitions In Response to Trump Tariffs

Creating an environment where companies don't want to work? Great job.

Jamet Singh the current leader of the NDP is putting off elections until late March so his full government pension vests. NPD holds a plurality of votes in Parliament so NDP has to be on board with an election.

The impact of tariffs will be much more pronounced in Canada than the US. The pressure to call for an election will increase exponentially.

Pierre Pollieve's will likely win a clear majority and not need a collation to select a Prime Minister.

I expect things will start to happen faster in Canada.

The meltdown today over USAID is everywhere, and news is coming out how how people and groups that have been anti-Republican (while perhaps being labeled as Republicans) were getting USAID money. 

Most notable example? Bill Kristol. Stephen Green points out some of the intermediate steps that went between USAID money and Kristol's pockets, but a lot of things are happening on X today. Must describes it as pushing USAID through the woodchipper.

They didn't pardoned for Covid charge them.

Maybe we can find a charge outside the pardon for Fauci.
