Trump Says Radical Left's Shutdown Misstep Opens "Unprecedented Opportunity" For Mass Firings Of Fed Workers Update (1320ET): As we mentioned earlier, Democrats voted for a full-blown government shutdown, which has inadvertently given the Trump administration the greatest gift ever: the ability to revive DOGE-style efforts to cut waste and fraud. "I have a meeting today with Russ Vought, he of PROJECT 2025 Fame,  to determine which of the many Democrat Agencies, most of which are a political SCAM, he recommends to be cut, and whether or not those cuts will be temporary or permanent. I can't believe the Radical Left Democrats gave me this unprecedented opportunity," Trump wrote on Truth Social earlier.  He continued, "They are not stupid people, so maybe this is their way of wanting to, quietly and quickly, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DJT."  It's only a matter of time before Democrats start viewing their miscalculated move as "regrettable"...  […]

Putin: 'All NATO Countries Are Fighting Us' While EU Leaders 'Whip Up Hysteria'  Speaking at the Valdai Discussion Group in the Black Sea resort of Sochi on Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin said his forces are advancing along the entire front in Ukraine, and warned that Moscow is now facing down all of NATO. "All NATO countries are fighting us, and they're no longer hiding it," he said. "Unfortunately, there are instructors (in Ukraine), and they're actually taking part in combat operations. A centre was created specifically in Europe, and it essentially supports everything the Ukrainian armed forces do. It feeds information, transmits intelligence from space, and supplies weapons and gives training." "The ruling elites of united Europe continue to whip up hysteria. It turns out that war with the Russians is practically on the doorstep. They repeat this nonsense, this mantra, over and over again," he continued. "They can't believe what they're saying, that […]

Alberta Proposes New Oil Pipeline By Irina Slav of OilPrice.com Alberta has proposed to build a new oil pipeline to the British Columbia coast that could carry up to 1 million barrels daily of crude oil, to be exported to Asian markets. The Calgary Herald reported the provincial government was ready to commit C$14 million to early planning for the project, with Premier Danielle Smith expressing hope the project could get federal approval as early as next month. Opposition, however, has been swift. The Premier of British Columbia said that “The problem that we have is Smith continues to advance a project that is taxpayer-funded, has no private sector proponent, is not a real project and is incredibly alarming to British Columbians, especially First Nations along the coast,” as quoted by Global News. Indeed, a representative of several coastal First Nations said they would not support a new pipeline project “now or ever,” according to a report by CBC News. […]

FICO Spikes On Plan To Go Direct To Lenders, Upends Experian, Equifax, TransUnion Fair Isaac shares surged today after announcing a plan that bypasses the big three credit bureaus - Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion - in providing its credit scores directly to mortgage lenders. Until now, mortgage resellers had to purchase FICO scores through the bureaus, who added markups of about $10 per score, according to the Wall Street Journal. FICO will now sell directly, offering lenders either a flat $10 fee or $4.95 per score plus a $33 closing fee. The company said the new closing charge replaces reissue fees but didn’t disclose the prior cost. WSJ writes that the change threatens a long-standing revenue stream for the bureaus. “We believe this change adds substantial uncertainty to a sector that has already been undergoing heightened volatility amid a series of potential regulatory changes,” wrote UBS analyst Kevin McVeigh. The move follows pressure from regulators […]

In a new viral clip, former Secretary of State and prominent Democratic figure Hillary Clinton outlined what she presents as an “orderly” solution to the immigration issue: deporting anyone who has committed a crime without question, imposing heavy fines on those who entered illegally, demanding payment of back taxes, requiring English proficiency, and “waiting their turn in line.” At first glance, this may seem like a tough stance aimed at “law and order,” but a closer analysis reveals that these proposals are incoherent, punitive, and—above all—politically opportunistic.

Russia Has Upgraded Missiles To Successfully Evade Ukraine's Patriots We've been documenting how more and more US Patriot missile batteries have been showing up in Ukraine, as even Israel has of late openly acknowledged sending one, with more said to be on the way. But it hasn't taken long for Russia to respond by upgrading its ballistic missile systems to evade Ukrainian air defenses, including US-supplied Patriot systems, according to a report by the Financial Times on Thursday. The report, which cites Ukrainian and US officials, details that the modifications affect both the Iskander-M short-range ballistic missiles and the air-launched Kinzhal missiles. Russian MoD/TASS  These have ranges of up to around 300 miles, with the upgraded missiles now said to be capable of performing sharp maneuvers or steep dives as they approach their targets, making them significantly more difficult to intercept. One Ukrainian official admitted the development to be a "game-changer […]
