The Kennedy Center broke its all-time attendance record for a public event March 29, with over 11,000 attendees for the EARTH to SPACE: Arts Breaking the Sky fireworks show, the Daily Caller has exclusively learned.

The history-making moment was celebrated amid a flurry of criticism from liberals about President Donald Trump’s takeover of the entertainment facility. Critics voiced concerns about Trump’s understanding and appreciation for the arts when he took control of the Kennedy Center. However, attendance numbers have told a different story. With a focus on shifting away from politically-charged programming, the facility experienced tremendous success with a widely-attended fireworks show.

Happy Propaganda

Every once in a while we hear about some happiness report which usually concludes that Nordic nations are generally happier than everybody else. The same analysis often smuggles in a plug for a generous welfare state as an explanation. Not surprisingly, it seems that the conclusions are based on some very flimsy evidence.

But upon closer examination, it turns out that the World Happiness Report is not based on any major research effort; far from measuring how happy people are with some sophisticated mix of indicators, it simply compiles answers to a single question asked to comparatively small samples of people in each country:

“Please imagine a ladder with steps numbered from zero at the bottom to 10 at the top. The top of the ladder represents the best possible life for you and the bottom of the ladder represents the worst possible life for you. On which step of the ladder would you say you feel you personally stand at this time?”

That’ll Show ’em!

When you react to self-imposed sanctions by instituting self-imposed sanctions, what did anyone think was going to happen? Patronizing Mary Brown’s Chicken in order to stick it to those American chains just got more expensive. If anything, this lunacy just points out how brittle the Canadian economy really is.

The fryers, which cost up to $27,000 each are made of steel and shipped from the U.S. Because Canada’s counter-tariffs include cooking appliances made of steel, Cluck Clucks believes it will now pay 25 per cent more for each new purchase.

He adds that Canada doesn’t manufacture deep fryers, so he can’t solve the problem by switching to a domestic supplier.

Rebel Capitalist podcaster George Gammon explores the logic behind the argument that Trump’s tariffs have caused a recession. While Gammon admits that tariffs have a negative economic impact, he argues that the tariffs could not have caused the recession that we appear to be entering. By looking at interest rate cutting cycles over several decades, he arrives at a very different conclusion from the mainstream narrative.

Gammon’s basic reasoning is as follows: “…[interest] rates are coming down but this doesn’t tell us that the economy is doing well. It tells us that the economy is really struggling and I want to point out they started cutting rates in September of 2024. This is way way way before Donald Trump was elected…”

“Bank lending decreasing…in other words, the low interest rates, are a reflection of a contracting economy…”

Winnipeg Sun- Family hunts down stolen car after being told no cops available for dispatch

In the last week I’ve seen videos of fisticuffs on a bus, a machete-wielding goon wandering into the street at night approaching oncoming cars, and even an attempted firebombing that backfired and resulted in the Molotov-tosser being ignited when the bomb was tossed back.

These are all scenes that go un-seen on your evening news channels.

The behind the scenes story of the woke philosophy that crashed Bud Light. It remains to be seen if the brand can be completely salvaged, but it offers a lesson to investors.

What went wrong at Bud Light? As the former president of the Anheuser-Busch Sales and Distribution Company—and an 11-year veteran of the company—I can tell you, this was no isolated mistake. It was the culmination of years during which Anheuser-Busch InBev, having failed to deliver new products, catchy campaigns, or fresh ideas, turned to what amounted to corporate progressivism, with an emphasis on what’s called ESG—environmental, social, and governance policies favored by the left. The stock price became secondary.

The Narrative Pipeline: How The Blob Operates

John A Konrad: The NYTimes, NPR, WaPo, CNN, and the rest don’t just react to news. They function as a distributed, decentralized mission command system for the Democratic Party and the broader Blob.

Step 1: Local Bureau Chiefs – These guys are stationed across the country, watching which stories gain traction and fielding calls from Dem operatives feeding them narratives.

Stories that they need to start controlling
Step 2: New York Editors – Bureau chiefs snip the news and send it to NY, where an editor triages it:
•Will this explode nationwide?
•Will it simmer for days?
•Or should we bury it?
Step 3: Editorial Meeting – The most concerning stories get flagged. Here, editors decide on the narrative framing and who to assign to write it.
But before they assign a journalist, they make one critical call — to the Deep State.

This is a super thread.
