‘Hollywood Elites Don’t Even Want It Made’: Award-Winning Author And RFK Jr. Running Mate Creating Pandemic Movie https://dailycaller.com/2026/02/23/the-rash-movie-walter-kirn-nicole-shanahan-brownstone-institute-covid-19-pandemics-hollywood-liberals/ via @dailycaller

🚨🍊‼️ Another James “Tommy” Fishback pedophilia scandal has hit the timeline. He slept with his underage student on a “debate” trip and took every student’s phones away so that nobody could document his wrongdoing. What the hell?! ⸻ James Fishback has been having an inappropriate relationship with a minor, who is in a [redacted] role for [redacted]. This student also attends [redacted] school and has worked very closely with James Fishback. He shares a hotel room with this minor every time they travel for Incubate Debate, even when crossing state lines for travel. The sharing of hotel rooms has been observed by fellow Incubate Debate members and can be verified by some in leadership roles, including [redacted], who has mentioned the hotel sharing that is happening between James Fishback and this minor. This is despite there being a rule that hotel rooms be shared only by those of the same biological sex (per James Fishback’s rules) for Incubate events. During an unsponsored retreat, where students in leadership roles were invited to James Fishback’s family’s beach home, inappropriate interactions between this student and Mr. Fishback were observed, including feeding each other, pool touching, trips alone to the beach, “cuddling,” among others. It is suspected now that this UNSPONSORED, UNOFFICIAL “retreat” was actually a means for James Fishback to spend an extended amount of time with the minor he is having an inappropriate relationship with. He also made inappropriate sexual jokes during this retreat. At the last SDI event, students were not allowed to have their phones, and phones were confiscated upon arrival for this 10-day overnight stay event (students were only allowed to use the hotel’s landline to call parents). Students were sent rafting, where they were left unsupervised without any designated adults. All adults and leaders exited the river halfway through without alerting any students of their absence. The students were left without phones, shoeless, and unsupervised. At the end of the river, they waited around for roughly an hour, unsure what to do and with no way to contact anyone in the event of an emergency. They had to walk along paths with no shoes, “tip-toeing” down a path of furry caterpillars. They were also left with another “student” who is [redacted] years of age, male, who had been making inappropriate comments and advances to female students, including making advances toward an [redacted] grade student. This person was left alone with these children despite many complaints and all of the girls being uncomfortable. Many male students wanted to fight this person. When the [redacted] grader refused this [redacted]-year-old’s advances, he proceeded to degrade and name-call her to other students in Incubate, including calling her things like “fat.” This [redacted]-year-old had actually been kicked out from the previous year’s SDI for inappropriate comments but was then allowed to come to the next SDI despite that. Students who had attended the SDI he was kicked out of were instantly uncomfortable when they learned he would be allowed to attend again. I am alerting all schools that have minors participating in this program, as well as getting this information to any parents that have children participating, especially those who are middle schoolers. I am going to report this to Law Enforcement and to ANYONE who will listen and can do something about these alarming issues. To each school I email, I will be following up with phone calls to each principal so that I can make sure that this information is received and that they know this is a legitimate concern. If your child participated in SDI, be sure to ask detailed questions about interactions with members who are 18 and up, as well as about supervision and details from the rafting trip. There have been no precautions to make sure that those who are over 18 are supervised with these younger children.

Good summary. You pay more, you get less. Here in Nashville our property taxes have gone up 60% in 5 years with no greater benefits to the taxpayers - schools are still below average, no new sidewalks or transit, crime rate same or worse, couldn't respond effectively to a snowstorm, etc.

But sticking every kid in front of an AI tutor is totally going to work and not at all crash and burn and be an utter disaster Way to learn from history there…

AI models from OpenAI, Google, Anthropic and xAI can reproduce entire novels from memory. Researchers extracted 95.8% of Harry Potter from Claude nearly word for word. Gemini 2.5 Pro and Grok 3 didn't even require bypassing safeguards - they just kept writing. AI companies have long claimed their models "learn patterns" rather than store copies. A German court already ruled this constitutes copyright infringement. Anthropic paid $1.5bn in settlement. Cost of extracting a book? Between $2 and $120. "We don't store copies" - technically not, but 95.8% is a bit close? https://arxiv.org/pdf/2601.02671

A poll was being tossed around White House circles in December that essentially declared MAHA issues, other than food and exercise, to be political losers. This poll is a complete fraud, as I show here. https://brownstone.org/articles/what-the-polls-say-about-the-pharmaceutical-industry-and-vaccines/

This guy is onto something here. Think this is an early indicator of the inevitable burst of the AI hype bubble.

Listen to this hostage situation: "she was an lgbtq supporter" The terror in these people poor peoples voice. Their child murdered by a trans monster and still expressing shock at the violence and threats directed at them from these evil people despite their already verbalizing their "support "

🦔 Google Maps now shows a "limited view" for users who aren't signed in. You can no longer see user reviews, photos, videos, how busy a location is, nearby recommendations, or restaurant menus without logging into a Google account. Basic features like directions, opening times, and addresses still work. Google hasn't officially announced the change. The notification tells users the service "may be experiencing issues" or that a browser extension might be causing the problem, then suggests signing in "might help you avoid seeing this limited experience again." My Take The messaging is dishonest. Telling users they might be experiencing technical issues when you're actually just restricting features to push account signups is manipulative. Just say what you're doing. This is standard enshittification. A product that was useful for everyone gradually becomes less useful unless you give up more data. Google Maps built its value on user-contributed reviews and photos, and now it's using that community-generated content as leverage to force logins. The core navigation still works, so it's not like they're holding directions hostage yet. But the path is clear. Every free service eventually finds ways to extract more from users once the alternatives are gone or inconvenient. If you want to avoid this, OpenStreetMap exists and works fine for most navigation needs. But most people won't switch, which is exactly what Google is counting on. Hedgie🤗

Teachers average among the least intelligent university graduates. In a given year, the lowest-scoring groups on the GRE, SAT, and ACT are usually those pursuing degrees in education.

There is a lie going around that voters are against RFK's vaccine agenda. This is complete bunk. https://www.politico.com/f/?id=0000019c-4f0d-d0f8-adde-ff5f2e9d0003

🦔 OpenAI is close to finalizing a funding round that could exceed $100 billion, which would be a record-breaking financing deal. The company's valuation could exceed $850 billion, up from the $830 billion initially expected. The first phase will largely come from strategic investors: Amazon up to $50 billion, SoftBank as much as $30 billion, Nvidia around $20 billion, and Microsoft also participating. A second phase with VCs, sovereign wealth funds, and other financial investors is expected to bring the total substantially higher. My Take The numbers are staggering, but I keep coming back to the fundamentals. OpenAI isn't profitable. Sam Altman publicly said they lose money on the $200 ChatGPT Pro tier. They're raising $100 billion while preparing to spend trillions on infrastructure. The bet is that AGI or something close to it justifies any price, and that whoever gets there first wins everything. Maybe that's right. But the competitive moat feels thinner than the valuation suggests. Microsoft is building its own frontier models. Anthropic and Google are competitive on capabilities. Open source keeps improving. We covered the NBER study showing 90% of executives say AI has had no productivity impact yet. Scott Galloway's point keeps echoing in my head: the only way to justify these valuations is massive job displacement. Either that happens at scale, or a correction is coming. At $850 billion, there's not much room for the bet to be even slightly wrong. Hedgie🤗

HHS just open-sourced the largest Medicaid dataset in history. About $1T in claims data, free for anyone to analyze via @DOGE_HHS. Everyone's looking at what was billed. At @MiddeskHQ, we're looking at who's behind the billing. Here's what we found 🧵

An 18-year-old student at Antioch High in Nashville pepper-sprayed her teacher after he confiscated her phone. He was punched by another student just two months ago. This is a safety crisis, not a discipline issue.

Jay realizing he's the new Rubio.

The Nashville Banner, fact-checking Alice Rolli, who lost the last mayoral election to Freddie O'Connell: "There is little evidence to suggest, also, that holding the line on property taxes would in any way drop rents or increase affordability" I don't like telling people impacted by higher property taxes that they voted for it; 34% of voters did not. Of course, 80% of adults didn't vote at all and you know what Rush says: "If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice." But, man, you have to overcome the opponent, the entrenched interests, and the media to get anything changed nowadays.

What’s ridiculous is that Moderna agreeing to a higher evidentiary bar, and agreeing to produce more data — Which would never have happened without the Refuse To File — is being framed as an example of regulatory incompetence.
