Red State: Team Trump Wined and Dined Far-Left Reporters in Controversial Effort to Diminish DeSantis
Donald Trump's campaign team dined with left-wing reporters before the GOP primary debate, mocking Ron DeSantis with pudding cups and bingo cards. The reporters seemed to echo Trump's narrative of being in the spotlight. This engagement with the press may come back to haunt Trump in the long run.
Daily Wire: Memo Shows Obama Officials Wanted To Award Ukraine Aid Before Biden Used It To Oust Top Prosecutor
In 2015, a task force determined that Ukraine deserved a $1 billion loan guarantee due to progress in combatting corruption. However, then-Vice President Joe Biden leveraged the aid to force Ukraine to remove its top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin. The move was believed to benefit the Ukrainian energy company Burisma, where Biden's son, Hunter, was on the board.
Biden insisted on Shokin's ouster despite recommendations from the task force. Shokin was seen as corrupt and a threat to Burisma. Memos reveal that some Obama administration officials had initially worked with Shokin and were impressed with his work. Biden's involvement in Ukraine has faced scrutiny, particularly regarding allegations of corruption and his actions during Trump's impeachment.
Newsbusters: WATCH Alex Wagner LITERALLY Beg MSNBC Viewers Not to Watch Fox News Debate
TV news outlets Fox News, MSNBC, and CNN are competing for viewership during the Republican primary debate. MSNBC's Alex Wagner desperately pleads with viewers to not switch to the debate, while guest Brian Stelter predicts lower ratings due to Trump's absence. Despite claiming the debate doesn't exist, Wagner and Lawrence O'Donnell urge viewers to watch their shows instead.
National Review: The Corner: The Official GOP Primary-Debate Drinking Game
GOP presidential primary debate drinking game: Take a sip if candidates mention Trump without being asked. DeSantis calls Ramaswamy "Fake Vivek." Nikki Haley criticizes then defends Trump. Ramaswamy claims federal agents in the crowd. Mike Pence says "lodestar." Halfway through, Francis Suarez bangs on arena doors. Kari Lake breaks into spin room. The Undertaker's music plays and Trump appears on stage (chug).
National Review: The Corner: Prigozhin: Warlord Down
Russian Wagner chief, Yevgeny Prigozhin, is killed in a plane crash, believed to be shot down by Russian air defenses. The incident shows Putin's control and strength, indicating that he is firmly in charge and has the armed forces under his control. The removal of General Armageddon, Sergei Surovikin, from his position further solidifies Putin's authority. The presence of Dmitry Utkin, former GRU colonel with alleged neo-Nazi sympathies, on the plane raises questions about his status and the possible implications. Prigozhin's return from Africa, despite previous disputes, proves to be a fatal mistake.
Daily Wire: ‘No Comment’: WH Comms Director Roasted For Bizarre Defense Of Biden’s Maui Response
Critics of President Biden's Maui response were dismissed by White House Communications Director Ben LaBolt, who claimed they were only complaining about Biden "petting a rescue dog." MSNBC host Joe Scarborough defended Biden, citing a Maui newspaper article praising him. However, Fox News contributor Joe Concha quickly pointed out the inaccuracies in LaBolt's assessment, mentioning Biden's false claims about a fire in his kitchen. Others highlighted that people were more concerned about Biden's delayed response and his insensitive speech about almost losing his Corvette, rather than him petting a rescue dog.
Newsbusters: How About Free Speech? Musk, Twitter Continue Down Troubling Path
Elon Musk's ownership of Twitter raises concerns about free speech. He implemented a change requiring users to add text to shared links.

Conservatives are urged to demand accountability from Big Tech.
American Thinker: Putin plays for keeps
Yevgeny Prigozhin, founder of Russia's Wagner Group, died in a plane crash, possibly shot down by Russian air defenses. Reports suggest his failed rebellion against Putin led to the incident. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian military is facing criticism for its misallocation of forces and lack of focus in the ongoing conflict. Putin's actions show a different approach, playing for keeps and sending a message to potential rivals.
National Review: The Corner: Thiessen on Trump’s ‘Mistakes’
Thiessen criticizes Trump's five mistakes that harm his chances in 2024, but I believe Thiessen underestimates the political advantage Trump gained from continuing to claim victory in the 2020 election. This strategy prevented him from being viewed as a loser and allowed him to stay as the party leader, positioning him as a quasi-incumbent for the primaries. Trump's actions may not have been constitutional or moral, but they put him ahead of his rivals. While Thiessen argues that these decisions weaken Trump's chances in the general election, I think they benefited him enough in the primaries to outweigh the negative consequences.
Flag And Cross: GOP Candidate Doug Burgum’s Debate Participation in Question After Last-Minute Injury
North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum may have to withdraw from the Republican primary debate due to a basketball injury. He faced criticism for meeting donation requirements by offering gift cards in exchange for $1 donations. Conservative radio host Larry Elder criticized the situation. Despite his plans to pay for donations, Burgum's injury may prevent his participation in the debate. He is a lesser-known candidate and was hoping for a breakout performance.
The Blaze: Ron DeSantis' response to being called a RINO is a total MIC DROP
In a conversation with Will Witt, Ron DeSantis defends himself against claims of being a Republican in name only. DeSantis highlights his bold record, including sending troops to the border and banning transgender surgeries for minors. He criticizes the strain in the Republican party that views support for Trump as the sole determinant of being a RINO. Trump supporters, however, react negatively to DeSantis' comments and demand an apology.

Daycare centers in Germany are promoting "sexual exploration rooms" for children to engage in sexual games and discover what they find pleasurable.

One daycare in Kerpen offers children the freedom to try out childish sexuality, stating that sexual self-pleasure is normal. Another daycare in Rheinberg facilitates "doctor games" where children explore each other's bodies carefully. Pro Familia, a professional association on sexuality and partnership, initially recommended these rooms in July. After public backlash, one nursery canceled the project.

Breitbart: Chinese City Sends ‘Sweet Love’ Texts Urging More Babies
The Chinese city of Xian urges residents to have more children on Qixi, China's Valentine's Day, to reverse the population crash caused by the One Child Policy. The government uses text messages and social media to remind people to create "good fertility" for the benefit of the nation.
The Chinese government is desperate to reverse the population decline and is implementing strategies like removing the cultural stigma of unwed motherhood and increasing access to in vitro fertilization (IVF). Rising wealth and the cost of child-rearing contribute to the declining birth rate. China's one-party system limits open public debate about the country's challenges, making population decline a potential source of political unrest and economic crisis.

The Federalist: AMA Wants Taxpayer-Funded Womb Transfers For Men
Biotechnologists advocate for taxpayer-funded uterus transplants for men who want to carry a baby, regardless of their anatomical differences. They argue that private insurers and religious employers may refuse coverage. The article's authors believe that subsidies for these procedures should be allowed, disregarding the moral and ethical implications. Such procedures can lead to harm for women and unborn babies. The American Medical Association, along with other leftist medical organizations, pushes for gender experiments and attempts to remove the "sex" category from birth certificates. This agenda undermines women, science, and morality. []
Forbes: For Amazon, Mark Cuban And Abarca Pharmacy Venture, Growth May Run Through Blue Plans
To cut drug costs, Blue Shield of California plans to drop CVS Caremark and instead use Amazon Pharmacy, Cost Plus Drugs, and Abarca. However, it may be difficult for this new model to compete with the top three PBMs - CVS Health's Caremark, Cigna and Evernorth's Express Scripts, and UnitedHealth Group's OptumRx - who have market dominance and scale. Prime Therapeutics, one of the five companies chosen by Blue Shield, is already owned by Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans.
