Trump’s attack on California voting is false, and a bit funny– www.latimes.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
In what may be one of the most comical self-owns in recent politics, the esteemed attorneys of the U.S. Department of Justice announced Monday that despite the extravagant and terrifying misuse of their investigative power under the Trump administration, they have so far been able to identify only 28 people in all of California who may have voted illegally.
“The announcement today by the United States DOJ makes the point that there is no widespread voter fraud,” California Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta said after the news conference announcing the results of “Operation Protect the Vote.”
Twenty-eight people out of about 23 million registered voters in the state — and not all of them even tried to vote, according to the feds. That’s about 1 in 820,000 folks allegedly registering or voting illegally, a rate that roughly matches how often people in the United States get struck by lightning in a given year.
So much for Trump’s endless claims that there is a vast, organized conspiracy between Democrats and undocumented people to have them vote in large numbers to steal elections. I’ll point out here that none of those charged Monday have been accused of colluding with one another or with Democratic overlords.

We are two weeks and one day out and something I have written about repeatedly is coming increasingly to the fore. To quote HotAir’s Ed Morrissey:

Israel’s military detains at least 40 ultra-Orthodox Jewish men accused of trying to evade draft– www.cbsnews.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
Tel Aviv — At least 40 ultra-Orthodox Jewish men were arrested upon arriving Tuesday morning at Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport on suspicion of attempting to evade the country’s military draft, the Israel Defense Forces said.
“The aforementioned individuals, who passed through the border crossing at Ben Gurion Airport, are subject to mandatory military service and will be tried in accordance with the law,” the IDF said in a statement.
The mass-arrest by military police was unusual in its scale, and it came amid a national reckoning over whether the ultra-Orthodox should have to serve in the military like the rest of Israel’s Jewish citizens.
The ultra-Orthodox have traditionally been exempt from military service, but in 2024, Israel’s Supreme Court ruled that in the absence of any law legalizing the exemption, the military must start drafting them.
Since the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas-led attacks on Israel and the subsequent multi-front war, the issue of equality of service has been thrust to the forefront of political debate ahead of Israel’s looming national elections on Oct. 27.
Many Israelis who serve in the military, particularly in the reserves, have complained of having to take on an unfair amount of the security burden for the state.
Did Ilhan Omar’s Husband Sell Empty Barrels of Wine? – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and her family seem to have abandoned their life as murderous warlords in Somalia only to become professional fraudsters in America.
Omar’s husband, Tim Mynett — the one to whom she is currently married, not her brother, whom she pretended to marry for immigration fraud purposes — used to run a winery. Because, you know, she’s a super devout Muslim and all that. The winery abruptly closed earlier this year amid official scrutiny. Turns out part of the problem might’ve been that Omar’s husband was selling investors empty barrels of wine. It’s absolutely incredible how these people seem incapable of running a business or holding a job that is not a front for crime.

In fact, Not the Bee sums up all the latest allegations against Omar very succinctly:
So if all the reports are true, Ilhan Omar lied about her age to make it seem like she naturalized through her father, who apparently she lied about being a citizen in the first place, then used her illegitimate citizenship to marry her brother so that he could inherit her fake naturalization before remarrying and starting a fraudulent winery that sold empty bottles of wine?

New Call for China to Free U.S. Scholar Min Zin, Detained Since June– chinadigitaltimes.net

EXCERPT:
A statement from the Forum 2000 Foundation and International Coalition for Democratic Renewal (ICDR)—of which CDT founder and editor-in-chief Xiao Qiang is a member—adds to widespread calls for the release of Burmese democracy advocate Min Zin, a U.S. citizen. Min Zin was detained in Kunming on June 3 after traveling to China for a conference; soon after, a spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that he was being held on suspicion of “engaging in espionage activities that endanger China’s national security.” The U.S. State Department formally designated Min Zin’s case as one of wrongful detention in late August, and President Donald Trump told reporters he had raised it during Xi Jinping’s state visit to Washington the following month.
From the Forum 2000 Foundation and ICDR:
The International Coalition for Democratic Renewal (ICDR) and Forum 2000 Foundation are deeply concerned by the wrongful detention of Min Zin, a prominent democracy advocate and independent scholar, in China.
On June 3, 2026, Min Zin, a United States citizen, was detained upon arrival at the airport in Yunnan province after traveling there on invitation of a Chinese university for an academic workshop. He has since spent over one hundred days in criminal detention at an undisclosed location investigated on spurious allegations of espionage and endangering China’s national security. Since his wrongful detention, there has been little information regarding Min Zin’s condition, access to legal counsel, or any evidence supporting the allegations against him. On August 20th, the United States government formally designated Min Zin as wrongfully detained.
China’s detention of Min Zin is an affront to international norms and standards and sends a chilling message to those in our community who uphold the principles of intellectual freedom and the open exchange of ideas.
France’s Multiculturalism Experiment Goes Up in Flames– www.dailysignal.com

EXCERPT:
“French culture doesn’t exist in and of itself; there is no such thing as a single French culture. There is culture in France and it is diverse.”
That was French President Emmanuel Macron in 2017, putting his own spin on the insipid “diversity is our strength” mantra that’s been the thoughtless creed of Western elites for more than two decades.
Now France, like so many other Western countries, is reaping the whirlwind of that shallow, misguided ideal. Riots are breaking out all over the country.
But it isn’t a case of France being French.
In fact, just the opposite.
This instead feels like the beginning of the end of a foolish and civilizationally suicidal globalist, “multicultural” project facilitated by EU elites that can no longer accommodate its contradictions.
I’m going to back up a bit here for those who haven’t been paying close attention to what’s been happening across the pond. Over the weekend, protests in France—absurdly billed by much of the media as student frustration with large class sizes and fiscal “austerity”—exploded into a torrent of violence that authorities have been unable, or perhaps unwilling, to contain.
The Democrat Party Platform Is Throwing Conservatives In Prison– thefederalist.com

EXCERPT:
Sen. Elissa Slotkin laid out Democrats’ plans for another round of lawfare against President Donald Trump’s administration in a public interview last week, saying the prosecutions would be a “deterrence message” to scare young conservatives away from politics.
Speaking to students at the University of Chicago, Slotkin said, “The people around Donald Trump … have no immunity the way the president does. … So you go after the people who do his bidding.”
“I want to look at these signature cases and not just focus on the president, but on the people who enabled him,” Slotkin continued. “I want young people coming out of school to say, ‘Should I go work for the Trump administration? Like that sounds fun. I might get an opportunity.’ I want them to be like, ‘Lord, that might be buying myself a ton of problems that I don’t want, and so let me avoid participating in that.’ I want that deterrence message.”
Slotkin then doubled down in a post on X days later: “America must be a place where the rule of law still matters. Those laws should apply to everyone equally. If you have aided in the corrupt use of U.S. taxpayer dollars to benefit the President or his family, or you have violated the law in order to carry out guidance from the President, you should be held accountable.”
“And given how rampant that corruption appears to the average American, people looking to work for his Administration should realize that while the Supreme Court has granted the President immunity, it has not done the same for those who do illegal things at his behest,” her post continued.

Illinois School District Placed Male Roommate Overnight With Teen Girls, Legal Group Claims– www.dailysignal.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
An Illinois school district allowed at least one male to share overnight accommodations with female high school students while withholding that information from parents, according to a legal group representing concerned parents.
Community High School District 128 in northern Illinois directs staff not to disclose a student’s “transgender” status, to assign overnight-trip rooms according to gender identity, and to incorporate transgender materials into curricula and libraries, according to a legal demand letter from Liberty Justice Center.
“We’re aware of several families whose daughters were directly affected by these policies, meaning not only exposure to unconstitutional curricula and ‘secret gender transition’ policies, but also being forced to share overnight accommodations with a biological male,” Kathryn Cosgrove, counsel at Liberty Justice Center, told the Daily Signal in a statement Friday.
Since the policy directs schools to assign rooms based on gender identity while restricting disclosure of a student’s transgender status, parents were not informed when the school reportedly assigned a male to room with their daughters, Liberty Justice Center claims. The district serves between 3,300 and 3,500 students at Libertyville High School and Vernon Hills High School.
The district allows for students to sleep “in a single bed,” as an exception to the standard minimum of three to a room, but the student “would incur any additional cost for this accommodation,” according to a copy of the overnight trip policy provided by Liberty Justice Center. The policy states that “students will be assigned to rooms with students of their same gender identity.”
Why Mamdani won’t act to reverse soaring subway violence– nypost.com

EXCERPT:
With Saturday’s mid-day murder in the tourist-packed 7th Avenue subway station at 53rd Street, the city has now seen seven transit killings since January — almost double the number over the same period last year — and the politicians plainly won’t do what’s needed to seriously reverse the trend.
That grim milestone indicts Mayor Zohran Mamdani and his movement’s anti-public-safety policies — as he all but acknowledged Monday with a long, ugly silence before claiming to be “heartbroken” over the death of Darrel Rodriguez and vague noises about addressing gun violence.
Progressives have been on a “criminal justice reform’ roll for over a decade now — starting with the disastrous “success” of getting city district attorneys to quit prosecuting fare-beating, even though such perps are regularly wanted for more serious offenses.
The state and city measures that followed — from Raise the Age and the no-bail law to How Many Stops — along with the steady shrinkage of the NYPD’s headcount have made it brutally tough for cops to fight crime.
And prog refusal to face facts about serious mental illness, especially among the homeless, further undermines public safety.
And so repeat offenders’ arrests for felony assault more than doubled from 2018 to 2026 over 2018.
NPR’s Left Right Center Puts Anti-Trump Sarah Longwell on the Right– www.newsbusters.org
News Source
EXCERPT:
“Public” broadcasting in the United States demonstrates routinely that it cannot stand conservatives and their arguments. The spectrum of debate on their show is often from far left to liberal Democrat. This is especially comical on the NPR talk show Left Right & Center, where their October 16 show filled the “Right” side with…..Sarah Longwell, a former Republican who campaigned with and for Kamala Harris in 2024.
The show’s host, David Greene, introduced her as the right’s representative: “She is the New York Times-bestselling author of How to Eat an Elephant, One Voter at a Time. She is publisher of the Bulwark, and also hosts the Focus Group Podcast.” She was fiercely anti-Trump on this show. When they discussed the execution of Islamist mass shooter Nidal Hasan, he said Trump supporters have a “perverse bloodlust” and are “fundamentally cruel, fundamentally indecent.”
This is the leading blurb for Longwell’s book: “The playbook for consigning MAGA-style politics to the ash heap of history (where it belongs).” They say she “draws on her own unlikely political journey from a lesbian Republican operative to the vanguard of the anti-MAGA movement.” Does that sound like the opposite of NPR?
And yet, in a fundraising announcement at the start of the podcast, Greene has the audacity to boast that there are “A lot of places where you could go for political news right now. A lot of takes, a lot of outrage, a lot of people who seem very, very certain that they’re right. Well, here at Left Right & Center we try do to something different. Every week, we bring people together who genuinely disagree…” Wow. Shameless.

Angie Nixon, a Florida State Representative who believes she is the right fit to serve in the U.S. Senate, has decided to double down on recent remarks she made calling for jailing her political opponent, and it is worse than you think.
Someone should remind her that in America, people have rights. Just because you disagree with your political opponent or have a hunch about a vague accusation does not mean that is grounds for an investigation or prosecution. Typically, you need evidence of a crime first.
These are the remarks she is doubling down on:
How is she not embarrassed to double down on such tyrannical and delusional rhetoric? Someone should really inform her that prosecuting your political opponent is no longer a winning campaign strategy, as proven by the left’s efforts to go after Trump.
According to The Hill:
“It’s not a desire to weaponize the justice system. It’s designed to actually hold corrupt politicians accountable for what they’re doing,” Nixon said. “Again, I want an investigation done. I would like the Department of Justice to investigate because nearly $10 million was stolen from sick kids, and people are pointing the finger saying they don’t know who did it, and so we need to bring that in.”
“Look, this is Donald Trump 2.0 here in the state of Florida, and we really need to work to push back. I’m wondering how many kids are going to die because 10 million dollars was taken from Medicaid that was supposed to make sure that those sick kids had the treatment that they needed,” she continued.
Tafoya Uses Minnesota Senate Debate to Make Election a Referendum on Flanagan’s Record – www.dailysignal.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
Republican Michele Tafoya took Democrat Peggy Flanagan to task for her dismal record as lieutenant governor in the first, and potentially only, debate between the two Minnesota U.S. Senate candidates. Hosted by NPR News on Friday, the showdown came just 18 days before the midterms.
Tafoya had previously appeared for a KSTP debate that Flanagan did not attend.
Flanagan focused on President Donald Trump, attacking Tafoya for having received Trump’s endorsement earlier in the week. Trump lost Minnesota in 2024, and the endorsement could prove more of a liability than an asset for Tafoya.
Tafoya responded, “Look, this campaign is about bringing all Minnesotans together, whether they voted for President Trump or whether they voted for Kamala.” Tafoya used the exchange to emphasize that her campaign is seeking support beyond traditional Republican voters.
Tafoya entered the race after a career in sports broadcasting and is making her first run for public office, while Flanagan has spent roughly two decades in public service. That contrast in political experience became part of a broader debate over bipartisanship and whether either candidate would be willing to stand up to their party.
Tafoya said the first thing she would do upon arriving in Washington would be to knock on the doors of the other 99 senators, arguing that it would take a bipartisan effort to address the current issues of the country. Tafoya questioned Flanagan’s own record of bipartisanship, accusing her opponent of never reaching across the aisle and questioning when she had stood up to Gov. Tim Walz or disagreed with her party in the past.
The debate then turned to crime, fraud, and public safety, another area where Tafoya sought to make Flanagan’s record in Minnesota an issue.

EXCERPT:
Criticism of Nova Scotia’s move to build a large-scale AI data centre in Cape Breton is growing, as both opposition parties are calling for an emergency sitting of the legislature to debate the project because they say it lacks consultation and regulatory safeguards.
On Friday, energy and infrastructure company, EverWind, announced plans for $10 billion in private investment in a data centre campus at its existing Point Tupper site near Port Hawkesbury, N.S.
AI development company Anthropic, the creator of Claude AI, confirmed it had signed a long-term lease to use the centre.
In a Monday morning social media post, Official Opposition Leader Claudia Chender shared her letter to Premier Tim Houston, in which she said “tough questions about this project must be asked.”
“What is most alarming is that you seem to believe that non-binding federal guidelines endorsed by the AI industry itself and expectations you laid out in a social media post constitute a valid approach to ensure that data centres remain accountable to the people of Nova Scotia,” she wrote in part.
‘A warning sign for polling’: Why one GOP pollster thinks a blue wave may fall short– www.politico.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
Democrats are salivating over, and Republicans are bracing for, a potentially massive blue wave. One GOP pollster is urging everyone to calm down.
Patrick Ruffini, a founding partner at Echelon Insights, has been loudly throwing cold water on Democrats’ hopes of sweeping the red state Senate seats that have become battlegrounds in a worsening national environment for Republicans.
“The polls are, I think, intentionally inflating the size of the battleground,” Ruffini told POLITICO.
Democrats are pushing to flip Senate seats in Iowa, Texas, Ohio and Alaska — all states that President Donald Trump won by at least 11 points in 2024 — with dreams of going even deeper into the map Kansas, South Carolina and even Mississippi. Sensing a potential disaster, Republicans have significantly curtailed their investments in North Carolina and Georgia to direct resources elsewhere.
Ruffini, who isn’t polling for candidates or party committees in any federal races, said he’s skeptical of Democrats flipping some of those seats, particularly in the Midwest, and gives the GOP a coin flip’s chance at keeping control of the Senate.
If a blue wave were to come, he said it would defy the ingrained partisanship in deep-red states that has mirrored growing political polarization around the country.

Quantum Physics Reveals a Limit on Thermalization Speed– www.techexplorist.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
Leave a hot cup of coffee on the table, and it gradually cools. Put a bottle of milk in the refrigerator and, given enough time, it reaches the same temperature as everything around it.
This everyday process, known as thermalization, is one of nature’s most universal behaviors. No matter how complex a system is, it eventually settles into equilibrium. While there is no doubt about whether or not systems will settle into equilibrium, physicists have been trying to answer the question of how quickly systems will reach this state for many years.
A new study suggests there is a fundamental limit.
Researchers at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, along with colleagues in Austria and Switzerland, have shown that quantum mechanics itself imposes a universal speed limit on thermalization. Their findings indicate that no physical system can reach thermal equilibrium faster than a timescale set by a handful of fundamental constants.
