Sorry to start on a downer, folks, but OR shared this yesterday and it needed to be included here today as well:

 I am trying to muster the courage to read this report. It is apparently very detailed, and absolutely horrifying.

Stephen Kruiser shared a great one-liner in today's briefing. Talking about the Occupy Wall Street protests of 2011: "There was always a 'one of these things is not like the others' person in charge at every Occupy Wall Street gathering we encountered in each city we went to in 2011." I take that to mean someone was in charge of making things happen but wasn't willing to stay in the homeless camps that grew up at these protests. 

Chances seem very good the same is true of the Tesla protests going on now. Stephen Green wrote about that

"You too can be reimbursed for up to $200, and all you have to do is protest Department of Government Efficiency chief Elon Musk from the comfort of a Tesla dealership. It isn't clear whether the offer from the left-wing Indivisible Project covers the cost of spray paint, keys, or bail, but money is fungible — so wink-wink, nudge-nudge, comrade. 'Indivisible Project can reimburse groups for eligible expenses associated with your Musk or Us actions, up to $200 per group, per congressional recess!' the group's website reads, followed by a link to get the reimbursement form. 

The theme is growing so loud, I can't hear anything but astroturf music.

Little tidbit the MSM didn't want to tell you: 40% of all calls--all calls!--to Social Security were fraud efforts to change direct deposit information. 

That's not tiny. 

DOGE found that. 

Then DOGE also found out the following:

I will bet he'd have his panties in a twist if I identified as a lawyer.

Netflix is planning to do the Narnia series. Starting with the Magician’s Nephew which the first book in the Narnia chronology but not the first in the series. I’ve noticed my. 
reprints make this error. That’s minor compared to the casting for Aslan. Aslan is the Christ type for Narnia. For Aslan they cast… Meryl Streep.

Meryl Streep is a great actress.  But she ain't Aslan.
