Good morning, Wake Up Right fam! Word on the street is that communist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani balanced the city’s $12 billion budget deficit without having to cut a single program! Wow… Maybe we were wrong all along about him?
Nope.
Turns out, he "balanced" the budget because the New York state government bailed him out. Which means Republican New Yorkers upstate were forced to subsidize the reckless spending of New York City.
Communism at its finest, my friends.

CIA whistleblower reveals Fauci tipped the scales on Covid origin
A
CIA officer just put names, dates, and a smoking-gun timeline on what many suspected for years: Dr. Anthony Fauci personally steered U.S. intelligence away from the COVID-19 lab-leak theory.
The details: CIA senior operations officer James Erdman testified before the Senate Homeland Security Committee, saying: "Dr. Fauci's role in the coverup was intentional. Dr. Fauci influenced the analytical process and findings by leveraging his position to ensure the IC consulted with a conflicted list of curated subject matter experts, public health officials, and scientists."
Erdman said Fauci inserted himself into IC deliberations twice [on Feb. 3, 2020, and again on June 4, 2021], both times pushing the natural-origin narrative.
He testified that CIA management overruled its own analysts and orchestrated a “middle-of-the-night, anonymous rewrite” of a lab-leak assessment.
Analysts who pushed back were retaliated against, Erdman said.
Back up: Remember, during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, Fauci and the medical community tried to convince Americans the virus came from bats in a wet market.
Why it matters: This is the first sworn, public account from inside the agency alleging that Fauci – who funneled NIH grants to the Wuhan lab through EcoHealth Alliance – directly shaped the IC’s findings on a pandemic that killed more than a million Americans.
What the other side is saying: The CIA fired back, calling the hearing “dishonest political theater” and accusing Paul of acting in “bad faith.” Every Democrat on the committee skipped the hearing.
Here’s the bad news: The statute of limitations for prosecuting Fauci for allegedly lying to Congress expired Monday. Former President Joe Biden's pardon already shielded him from criminal referral over gain-of-function testimony.
What happens next? Senator Rand Paul and Senator Ron Johnson are calling for a new Church Committee–style probe into IC abuses.

Newsom gave death row killers tablets… It went just as you’d expect
A $189 million Gov. Gavin Newsom pet project, which gave prisoners tablets in the name of "digital equality," was used by death row killers to watch porn, sext, and groom children.
The details: Reporters Christopher Rufo and Haley Strack interviewed dozens of California death row inmates who described how taxpayer-funded tablets have become "personal sex machines." The state issued the devices to all ~90,000 prisoners as part of Newsom's push to convert San Quentin into a Nordic-style "rehabilitation center."
Serial killer Robert Maury said he received a topless photo from a German student and watches porn via video calls where contacts "put porn on their TV."
Death row inmate Samuel Amador admitted to rotating between "porn an[d] short clips of my family at the Beach."
Inmate Jamar Tucker said he receives videos of women "dancing... in a thong" despite the supposed ban.
The worst case: Inmate Nathaniel Ray Diaz – convicted of sex crimes against a 12-year-old – allegedly used his tablet to make "thousands of calls" to the same victim, forcing her to talk "for hours, every day" after school and soliciting explicit images through a co-conspirator.
Quote: Douglas Eckenrod, California's former deputy director of adult parole, warned officials about grooming risks before the rollout and was ignored. He said:
"I would bet my pension there's a vast amount of childhood pornography on the tablets… There are probably several thousand [children] currently being groomed."
What happens next? Newsom isn't slowing down. The tablet-to-prison contract allows extensions with a total cost of $315 million. And one Democratic legislator wants inmate messaging made entirely free.
