On a mostly sunny but rather cold Thursday, here are some things going on:
From National Review, Director of National Intelligence nominee and former congresscritter (D-HI) Tulsi Gabbard is grilled during her confirmation hearing.
From FrontpageMag, a tale of pardons from Presidents Biden and Trump.
From Townhall, Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-Con) makes a fool of himself trying to trip up FBI Director nominee Kash Patel.
From The Washington Free Beacon, a CNN analyst blames President Trump for last night's deadly crash between a military helicopter and a civilian airline near Ronald Reagan National Airport. (He thus shows that you can't spell "analyst" without "anal".)
From the Washington Examiner, the aforementioned Tulsi Gabbard refuses to call Edward Snowden a "traitor".
From The Federalist, a dozen programs for which the U.S. taxpayers are getting ripped off.
From American Thinker, how disgusting were Democratic Senators at the confirmation hearing for Health and Human Services Secretary nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr.?
From NewsBusters, NPR called the two astronauts stuck on the International Space Station "stranded" until Trump returned to office.
From Canada Free Press, no matter what you call them, spending $50 million on condoms is a waste of money.
From TeleSUR, former Bolivian President Evo Morales will run to retake his former office, but with the support of a new political party.
From TCW Defending Freedom, a shameful Holocaust Memorial Day prayer minimizes the genocide of Jews by not mentioning them. (As I said yesterday, and I must say again, discussing the Holocaust without mentioning "Jews" is like discussing American slavery without mentioning "blacks" or "Africans".)
From Balkan Insight, Croatians boycott three retail chains and products such as Coca-Cola is response to rising prices. (Boycotting sodas will probably improve their health.)
From The North Africa Post, Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso leave the economic bloc ECOWAS.
From The New Arab, Syria faces a long road ahead now that former President Bashar al-Assad has been ousted.
From RAIR Foundation USA, Swedish Islam critic Salwan Momika, who once burned a Koran, is assassinated during a live broadcast. (If you read Swedish, read the story at SVT.)
From Gatestone Institute, Islamist terror is alive and well in Africa.
From Radio Free Asia, a lawyer seeks the release of 42 Uyghurs from China who have been detained in Thailand for over 10 years.
From The Stream, Argentine President Javier Milei rips woke elites in Davos, Switzerland for their LGBT ideology and support for abortion.
From The Daily Signal, the aforementioned Kash Patel is the right person to fix the FBI.
From The American Conservative, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky demands that the U.S. provide troops to Ukraine, which Trump should refuse.
From The Western Journal, the first victims of the aforementioned crash between a helicopter and an airliner are identified.
From BizPac Review, the Chief Twit considers suing recent vice presidential candidate Governor Tim Walz (D-Min) for making an allegedly defamatory claim.
From The Daily Wire, the twice-aforementioned Tulsi Gabbard promises a "laser-like focus" on "safety, security, and freedom".
From the Daily Caller, the twice-aforementioned Kash Patel tells Senator Dick Durban (D-Ill) that pardons go both ways.
From Breitbart, some employees of Meta protest the removal of tampons from men's bathrooms by bringing in their own.
And from the New York Post, if you try to shoplift at the store Happy Piranha in Truro, England, you might get arrested - by the store's owner himself. (The article links to the source SWNS, to which you'll have to subscribe in order to read.)
