The Real Purveyors of Jim Crow

February 10, 2026

Allen West, February 13, 2026

Well, it is Black History Month, and true to form, Marxist leftists, like Sen. Chuck Schumer, need a tutorial reminder of just who the real purveyors of Jim Crow are. Last week, Schumer, a typical useful idiot, ranted, once again, that voter ID is a return to Jim Crow. Well, Schumer, a member of the Democrat party, should simply be reminded that it was his crew who gave us Jim Crow 1.0. Funny, this past Saturday I reached a milestone, my 65th birthday. Yes, I have crossed the Medicare river, not the river Styx.

It made me reflect upon something.

I was born 65 years ago on February 7, 1961, in a “Blacks only” hospital, Hughes-Spalding in Atlanta, Georgia. I grew up in the Old Fourth Ward neighborhood, the same community that produced Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and was the cradle of the American Civil Rights movement. My birth was under the first wave of Jim Crow, courtesy of the political party of the jackass. However, before we even get to the Jim Crow history of the leftists, what came before that? Yes, immediately after the Civil War, the southern states, in refusal to fully capitulate, Democrats created what was called “Black Codes” from 1865 to 1867. These statutes encompassed labor control and vagrancy laws, which targeted homeless and unemployed Black individuals as a consequence of labor control measures. As a result, they faced arrest and social restrictions. The purpose of these “codes” was to establish a system of racial hierarchy; they served as a prelude to Jim Crow.

'Potentially Influential Government Officials' in Canada and China Were Paid Excessively by Pfizer

    Dr. Byram W. Bridle, 02/10/26

When I read the article, I found two details in the story to be particularly disconcerting.

First, I learned a new term. Apparently there are “potentially influential government officials (PIGOs)” that pharmaceutical companies like Pfizer target monetarily. This term bothers me and the purpose of the payouts seems to be at odds with conflict of interest policies that are supposed to be enforced in countries like Canada.

Second, alongside China, Pfizer targeted Canada’s PIGOs through a disproportionately large budget. The story focused on the fact that Pfizer may have committed fraud by targeting potentially influential government officials in China with a disproportionately large sum of money (“over ten times the amount of money”) compared to what was paid out to government officials in the United States. However, as a Canadian, I found the following facts to be of concern:

JAPAN FIRST! The Donald Trump of Japan is a woman

Modernity Exit polls from Sunday’s snap election project Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s Liberal Democratic Party securing between 274 and 328 seats in the 465-seat lower house—well above the 233 needed for a majority. With its coalition partner, the total could reach as high as 366 seats.

This outcome follows Takaichi’s decision to call the vote just three months after becoming Japan’s first female prime minister. The landslide hands her a clear mandate to advance her agenda.

President Trump has praised her as “a strong, powerful, and wise” leader, highlighting the natural alignment between her vision and America First priorities. The endorsement underscores how leaders who reject globalist orthodoxy are gaining ground.

Takaichi has taken a firm line against mass immigration. She has made clear that rising numbers of illegals and fake refugees will be sent home, choosing instead to strengthen traditional family structures and encourage higher native birth rates to tackle Japan’s demographic crisis—where one-third of the population is already over 65 and birth rates have plummeted.

RFK Jr. Urges US Ranchers to Ramp Up Beef Production

(The Epoch Times)—Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. urged American ranchers to boost their beef production while on stage at CattleCon on Feb. 5.

“I’m begging you to increase the size of the herds,” Kennedy said during a discussion with National Cattlemen’s Beef Association President Buck Wehrbein in front of a packed ballroom of cattlemen in Music City Center.

In 1972, the United States had 132 million head of cattle, and that total livestock inventory dropped to 92 million in 2025, the HHS secretary said during Thursday’s event.

“A lot of producers are now, because of fluctuations and the market’s uncertainty, slaughtering the breeding cows, and I’d ask you to stop doing that,” Kennedy added.

America’s cattle inventory has dropped due to years of drought and rising costs, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation.

Born to Be Good: The Science Behind Children’s Inner Moral Codes

By Arsh Sarao 

Five-year-olds know right from wrong.

In a 2025 study, researchers showed young children videos of either a robot or a peer grabbing something that wasn’t theirs or refusing to share. Then they asked a simple question: Was the behavior right or wrong?

The children’s verdict was clear. Stealing and refusing to share were always wrong, period. It didn’t matter whether the bad actor was a playmate or a machine programmed to misbehave.

The children even attributed guilt to the robot, as if it should have known better. “Morality is present even in the youngest children—and it is powerful,” Antonella Marchetti, a professor of developmental and educational psychology known for her work in children’s moral development, said in a press release.

The study naturally invites a question: If five-year-olds condemn wrongdoing, do these judgments begin even earlier—before language?

Chugwater Ranch Rehabs Million-Dollar Racehorses Once Thought Doomed

CHUGWATER — The horses are all warm and chocolate, white and creamy, brown and caramel, their tails calmly swishing as their wide and curious eyes watch farrier Meghan McGann working on the hooves of a fellow horse. 

“This foot isn’t going to look pretty and be comfortable to her,” McGann tells Cowboy State Daily, pointing at a deep notch in the hoof. 

The cuticle was damaged in an injury and, just like fingernails, likely won’t ever grow back correctly. It's dangerous because the notch could catch on something and tear up the horse's entire hoof, so it has to be trimmed. 

McGann's goal, as with all the horses, is minimal intervention.
