doesn't mean that our crime data is going to be — wait, what? Oh, yes. There's a story today that the DC police commander is placed on leave for quote deliberately falsifying crime data. Oh god, everything is corrupt and it's all because people make up the data. So the police union has accused this guy of deliberately falsifying the data. Apparently the way they do it is by what they classify as…

Oh, wait. Nothing like that's happening. Mollie Hemingway is pointing out that the Atlantic, which is one of the Democrat media that pretends it's something else, and Anne Applebaum and others are, as Mollie Hemingway says, clinging bitterly to the lie that they pushed against the American people. In other words, they're trying to argue that the Russia collusion story was based on solid reporting and solid data and that yeah, I mean there was definitely something there and I'm sure Mueller actually said so and there were things and indications and they had a good reason to believe and so no, history is corrupt and being rewritten as we watch.
So let's say our economic data is bad, our climate data is bad, our crime data is bad, our local governments are corrupt, and the press is erasing history because the history includes the press's own bad behavior. So they're just going to erase it. It's sort of like being a doctor. Somebody joked long ago that doctors get to bury their mistakes. But the press gets to do that too. The press can run these massive hoaxes for years like the fine people hoax and the January 6 insurrection hoax. They can run a hoax for years and then when they get caught they just erase history because they have the power. So why not? You would too if you had the power.
President Trump has directed some of his federal assets to do a little policing in DC. So he's not moving to federalize per se. Not exactly. So he's not federalizing the city. And this is in response to the absurd rate of crime in Washington DC. But he is putting the US Park Police into action. So after midnight I guess they'll have a presence in some of the touristy areas of the city and I think some other entities might be part of this too. So the Metropolitan Police Department, Capitol Police, Metro Transit. So he's going to bring some federal assets to just make it safer to walk the streets in touristy parts. That's not nothing. So we'll see if that works.
Your comments suddenly got really slow. There. There we go. Back in action.
The FDA is apparently making some moves to simplify the approval process for companies that want to make their drugs in the US. Apparently it's very hard to get approval for your plant if you want to build a plant to make pharmaceuticals in this country. So the FDA is going to tighten that up and make it easier. The Hill is reporting on this. I kind of like, one of the things I like the most about the Trump administration is that he's made it a sexy thing to reduce regulations. And it's very clear that if you want to curry favor with the boss, the boss being Trump, that if you could come up with a story about the domain that you manage getting rid of some regulations to make it easier to do business in the United States, you know that Trump is going to love to hear that. So you work on it so that you win, he wins, and the country wins. And so DOGE did the same thing. So there you see now parts of the government that are competing to tell you that they cut their costs. That wa

sn't really even a thing under the Biden administration. Do you remember any story about oh, this department figured out a way to cut their expenses 10%? Nobody needed to. It wasn't even a thing. But given that you know that Trump would give you attention and your career could benefit if you did some cost cutting, now it's almost a competitive sport. Everybody's looking for a way to get in on this…
