“Ever notice how leftists routinely rally around people and things that the general public simply has no interest in, seemingly in the hope of forcing whatever that person or thing is to become popular? It might work for a short while (think Labubu, the ugly creatures that look like a cross between a monkey and bad dentistry that blew up for a minute last year) but reality has a funny way of insisting on itself and trends fade. The same thing happens in politics, as Hollywood leftists love elevating people who could easily sell out a Beverly Hills fundraiser for millions of dollars, but could easily walk unrecognized through a mall anywhere else in the world.” (09/15/26)

“Soldiers in the African nation of Eswatini accidentally shot two U.S. government personnel last week, the country’s government said. The U.S. personnel were shot during an anti-smuggling operation by the Eswatini army in a rural region in the northeast of the country late Friday, Eswatini’s government said in a statement late Monday. The Americans sustained ‘minor injuries’ and there was an investigation underway, Eswatini government spokesperson Thabile Mdluli told The Associated Press on Tuesday. The Eswatini government didn’t immediately identify the U.S. personnel or say why they were present.” (09/15/26)

“What are the implications for economics of recognizing entrepreneurship? They are vast. Modern/mainstream economics is, to a great extent, the outcome of expunging the entrepreneur and forcing an entrepreneurless, mechanistic view onto the economy. This facilitates the use of mathematical analysis and quantitative predictions, but these will always be wrong to the extent that there is entrepreneurship. In a sense, mainstream economics is the science of a planned or plannable economy. And the basic models even assume that there is perfect information.” (09/15/26)

“Macklemore has been removed from the duration of a tour with Ed Sheeran for saying ‘Free Palestine’ and criticizing Israel’s genocidal atrocities in Gaza. In an eloquent statement posted on social media, Macklemore said he was told by Sheeran that New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft had barred him from the Gillette Stadium and coordinated with other stadium owners on Sheeran’s tour to follow suit. Robert Kraft has a net worth of some $15 billion. He was once publicly handed a trophy by Benjamin Netanyahu honoring his commitment to the Zionist project …. Macklemore said Sheeran defended his decision to comply with Kraft’s demand by telling him that ‘the words ‘Free Palestine’ and the image of the Palestinian flag were hurtful to a lot of people.’ Which really says a lot about the detached celebrity cloud that Sheeran has been living on.” (09/15/26)

“The U.S. said for the first time Monday that the Space Force has deployed weapons in orbit. U.S. Air Force Secretary Troy Meink told the Air and Space Cyber Conference that the U.S. has ‘on-orbit space control weapons,’ as he outlined a broader push to modernize the Air Force and Space Force in response to advances by U.S. adversaries, AI, and the growing use of autonomous weapons. He did not specify what kind of weapons in space had been deployed, or when, according to the official Air Force account. … His comments came as governments are reassessing what weapons and defense systems they’ll need to defend themselves against an increased threat from hybrid attacks.” (09/15/26)

“On Monday, September 7, in Tokyo, an economist who has spent a year arguing that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) should wait to hike interest rates published a note saying it no longer can. Takuji Aida, who advises Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, sits on her flagship growth-strategy panel, and 10 months ago he warned that a December rate rise would be quite risky. He now expects a rate rise from 1% on September 18, followed by three more rate hikes after that. Aida’s forecast is, in itself, unremarkable: markets seem prepared for such a shift, having nearly fully priced a quarter-point move to 1.25%, the highest rate the BoJ has risen to since 1995. What is remarkable is the source of the rise.” (09/15/26)
