The News of Today is the History of Tomorrow

NOTE: We had a great convention and it was wonderful to see so many homeschool families out and to speak to so many of you. If you want to book Larry for a homeschool or political zoom talk---or in person---email me at Larry@wildworldofhistory.com

IN POLITICAL NEWS

1) There were major signs that the DOJ is finally moving on some arrests of the obstructionist and criminal burrowed in class when Kash Patel's FBI frog-marched a judge who aided and abetted an illegal alien to the hoosecow. A couple of days earlier Kristi Noem's DHS arrested a New Mexico judge who not only harbored an illegal alien, but a violent member of Tren de Arugala or whatever it's called. Seth Keshel see this as a signal "The arrests are coming." In addition last week, the DOJ received criminal referrals on both Andrew Cuomo and the gluttongidget Letitia James. If prosecutions follow there, I think it signals that this low hanging fruit is just the first of these spoiled applies to be plucked. Mike Davis, who is a pretty straight shooter, said on the Steve Bannon show that "justice id definitely coming" and Steve seemed appeased.

2) Meanwhile, however, one of the most prominent witnesses in the Jeffrey (He-didn't-kill-himself) Epstein case, Virginia Giuffre, "died by suicide." But the real cause appeared to be spousal abuse, as testified to by her journal.

3) In huge news that went largely ignored, Texas adopted school choice. This is a major breakthrough for homeschooling and private schooling. That makes 34 states with some form of school choice, which is now coming close to breaking the backs of the teachers' unions.

4) The DemoKKKrat Party in Florida is dead, at least according to the top DemoKKKrat state senator in the FL DemoKKKrat Party, who just switched to "independent." While Ron DeSantis deserves credit for some of this, don't forget that FL was still D+ several hundred thousand prior to Rick Scott. He was the one who flipped it red.

5) Our pals at 538 say polling is in a death spiral. True, but not Baris's "People's Pundit," who remains extremely accurate because unlike the pollsters listed on RealClearPolitics, he doesn't cook his polling.

6) A new analysis by Patrick Ruffini shows that the DemoKKKrat Party is moving further away from the "middle" position most voters have on a wide, wide range of issues and becoming more wedded than ever to the college educated minority. But don't tell that to ex-CIA analyst, now senator Elissa Slotmachine Slotkin, who wants the DemoKKKrats to get some "alpha energy." Sorry Slotmachine. That's hard to do when you're givin' 'em testosterone blockers.

7) This author argues that the Cloward-Piven strategy failed. I would argue it did far worse than fail for the DemoKKKrats---it sparked a civil war over immigration and spending as exposed by Elon Musk that may have fatally forever wounded DemoKKKrats (as it seems that "good management') has become one of the catch-phrases of DemoKKKrat so-called "moderates" trying to save the party from destruction.

8) Another DemoKKKrat (VA Congressman) Gerry Connally has announced he will retire due to a return to Congress. I wish him good health, and good riddance from Congress.

9) Remember the DC helicopter/plane crash? Maybe people dropped the woke concerns of that DC crash too soon. Looks like the female pilot ignored warnings from her male co-pilot.

10) If my wife is unable to respond, I can't get certain medical help for her because of HIPPA. But Blue Shield in Kollyfornia shared health data of millions of people with Google for years.

11) Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) says he wants to investigate the collapse of Building 7 on 9/11, saying it may have been "controlled demolition."

12) Washington State has become the first state to recognize Islamic holidays as state holidays.

13) Imagine that. Dinobernie, who was around when the Flintstones were mere babes, says the DemoKKKrats have "no vision" for the future. Yeah, like socialism Dinobernie? That fine economic system that killed millions and enslaved millions more? Go back to your third damn house. Meanwhile, Scott Pressler issued a warning note that for the first time in years the DemoKKKrats out-registered Republicans in Pennsylvania by 1,000. Seth Keshel ("Captain K's Corner on Substack) doesn't think this is significant, and thinks it's the result of a little voter roll purging and local election registration drives.

14) NARAL, the National Baal-Worshipping League of Maloch-lovers, is running ads trying to shield Planned Murderhood from public perceptions that it is the modern-day equivalent of an Aztec Temple. Maybe that's because the Missouri appeals court ordered Planned Murderhood to hand over documents to the state AG. Oh and Planned Murderhood is closing two Utah clinics after losing federal funding. Aztec witchdoctors greatly disappointed. By the way, this should tell you that without fed gubment funding, maybe abortion ain't all as popular as it's made out to be.

15) The USNavy has introduced a 50 mph autonomous warship capable of a 1,000 range without stopping.

16) An apparently mentally-challenged woman was twerking on the top of a Cadillac when she fell off an was run over by a truck. Well, the truck driver was probably a fan of the waltz.

IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS

17) Oops. Looks like deportations are popular, by a 12 point margin.

18) ICE arrested nearly 800 illegal criminal invaders in just a few days in Flordia. And 100 were arrested at a Colorado night club. And Gateway Pundit reports that several "active duty military" were working armed security for the club.

19) Well, well. A second suspect in the Kristi Noem purse-snatching is being held on an "immigration detainer." Shocked, I tell ya.

20) Illegal criminal aliens have cost the state of Texas $121 million in unpaid health care bills in JUST ONE MONTH. "Oh, but they all just come here to work."

21) How Trump sealed he border in 100 days. This is a 98% drop from Rutabaga.

22) The White House lawn now is lined with posters of mugshots of the illegal criminal invaders.

IN CULTURAL NEWS

23) For the first time in 40 years, a Christian medical school has opened up. Previously they were viewed as "unscientific." You know, til all the doctors told us the China Virus vax was ok and that they couldn't define a woman.

24) Beautiful. This and money are the Achilles heels of universities: Trump threatens accreditation if there is DEI/woke institutionalism.

25) I spoke of private schooling and homeschooling above. Now a homeschool team has won the science competition in Colorado. Oh and Mississippi and Louisiana 4th and 8th grade math scores are now better than those in Kollyfornia and New York.

26) President Trump is reinstating Columbus Day.

IN TRANSOID NEWS

27) Sick and disgusting but predictable: Nike was allegedly funding research on the physical performance of boys put on puberty blockers and hormones to show that "gee, they aren't different than girls."

28) The Pentagon threatens to ignore judicial rulings on transoids due to national security.

IN ECONOMIC NEWS

29) David Blackmon notes that merely securing rare-earth minerals from friendly nations isn't enough if they still have to ship to Chy-na to refine them. President Trump needs to order a wartime-footing effort to refine them here. Meanwhile, Trump and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum have moved to drastically reduce the amount of time needed to obtain energy permits.

30) American businesses are still discriminating against white men via DEI.

31) A made in the USA clothing company says the tariffs are boosting demand.

32) And more encouraging news from the world of EVs, as a Kansas school district dumped its electric busses out of concern over a wide range of safety issues.

IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS

33) There was an enormous explosion at an Iranian port that happened to have fuel for Iranian missiles shipped from China there. Amazing what Israel can do without US money. New, multiple explosions occurred across Iran including in Tehran.

34) Speaking of all around evil duckpumpers, Klaus Schwab stepped down as the World Economic Forum, that giddy band of reverse Robin Hoods, opened an investigation into His Schwabbiness after a whistleblower blew the whistle on major financial spoogification by Santa Klaus and his wifey. As "Coffee and Covid" noted, their behavior constituted an existential threat to the carefully manicured image of global do-gooders that is the WEF.

35) President Trump told French President Macaroni to beat it when he showed up during Trump's meeting with Green Screen Zelensky. Once Trump and Green Screen sat down, it was clear who had the cards.

36) ChiCom plastics factories face mass closures as US ethane supplies vanish. Maybe that's why the ChiComs just folded and eliminated tariffs on a wide range of goods. Now, that said, "Fair Trade" doesn't just mean removing tariffs. It means allowing in US products on shelves.

37) And so it begins: mass power outages in Spain and Portugal force metro evacuations, internet shutdowns, and affect air traffic controllers. Come on you Iberian geniuses. More wind, right?

IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS

38) Meta (which means "death" in Hebrew has a chatbot that allows kids to engage in sex talk with voices of Disney characters. Who else?

39) Hollywood bounced back with its best final April weekend since the China Virus, although we must always be careful to use an inflation adjustment. Also, "Minecraft" continues to pull in a lot of youts.

40) 25 years ago Saturday Night Live saw music producer Christopher Walken demand "More Cowbell" out of Will Ferrell. In 2019, Farrell said that Walken told him the skit ruined his life---that at theatrical productions people would bring cowbells and waiters would come up to him with a cowbell. Oddly, in this classic image, Farrell looks like Charleton Heston.

IN CHINA VIRUS NEWS

41) Emergency room visits surged 20% among teens given the mRNA vax.

42) Robert Kennedy, Jr., has launched his long-awaited offensive against said mRNA vaxxes.

43) Data from the bad WHO, not the good Who, show that global China Virus deaths skyrocketed after the vaxxes.

AND FINALLY . . .

44) Racism at sea, as an all-white Killer Whale was spotted near Japan. I'm sure the Southern Poverty Law Center will be right on this with an entire flotilla of black Ahabs.
