HEADLINES: Blind Lemon Don arrested; Kollylfornia loses more people; Belichek doesn't make the Hall of Fame
THE NEWS OF TODAY IS THE HISTORY OF TOMORROW
IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) The battle over MN continues, with leftoid sphincterblossoms filing 500 habeas claims, slowing processing. File under "They don't ever arrest anyone": Blind Lemon Don arrested, but he might not mind dropping the soap.
2) I just don't understand. I thought this was a winning issue for DemoKKKrats, except the evil Axios said that DemoKKKrat leaders are telling House members not to go to MN. Gee, why? Photo ops are going to have the wrong outcome?
3) Meanwhile just nine leftoid counties account for two-thirds of all violent confrontations with ICE. Wanna guess which ones?
4) Yes, this is real, and yes, it is serious enough for DHS Secretary Kristi Noem to be present: the FBI raided the Fulton Co. Election offices and took over 700 boxes of evidence. Seth Keshel discusses here, but for those who say, "Oh, they've destroyed those records already,' hang on a second: Col. Oliver North was taken down in the Iran-Contra scandal by one memo that he forgot to purge. County leadership there was "frantic," and "defensive." DNI director Tulsi Gabbard was there in person. This suggests a major, major operation.
5) Maybe this should be under "Entertainment News," but a newly-released Epstein doc says Bill Gates caught an STD from "Russian girls" (wait, there were "Russian girls" at Epstein Island? For what purpose?) then secretly slipped Melinda antibiotics.
6) Trump announced the new Trump accounts (investment accounts) for kids with singer Nicki Minaj, and so far over 5 million have signed up, as employers race to match the government funds. As Jeff Childers notes, "through encouragement alone" Trump is engaging in a massive wealth transfer from American corporations to babies and families. Further, this slams the door on "affordability" whines by DemoKKKrats.
7) Oops. DemoKKKrats in VA just learned that their electricity bills will go up by 200% thanks to the policies of the new DemoKKKrat lint-accumulator, Spanxberger.
8) Pressure mounts on DemoKKKrat states to enact school choice credits. Here in AZ, one of the pioneers, scarcely a week goes by that the horrific public school-supporting rags aren't bemoaning the exodus from the public institutions of moron-expansion.
9) Here is just another reason that the DemoKKKrats have gone Full Stormtrooper. (Ya never go Full Stormtrooper): the 2030 census will utterly end them, although I stand by my prediction that they will be functionally extinct after the 2028 election. Trump states are set to gain a net of 11 more Electoral Votes, meaning that just the currently "safe" seats as the Real Seth Keshel points out combined with 11 more puts any GOP candidate at needing just one single small state to win an Electoral College election.
10) And, to underscore that map, more good news as Kollyfornia's population declined again, this time by 200,000. Start getting it into the millions and it will produce change. Oh, and I missed this but a few days ago Wells Fargo announced it is pulling its wealth management office out of Kollyfornia and moving it to Palm Beach.
11) Chris Bray reveals the duplicity with which the Amazing Zohran now claims "Shazaam!" I never saw all these budget deficits that came from Eric the Red Adams. His solution? Why, of course, to raise taxes again on the "wealthy," who will continue to flee New Kabul. At least he admits the deficits were caused by the "migrant crisis." What? I thought all they did was make a nation wiser and wealthier.
12) That isn't quite at this level of moron-ity, where a Columbia Ph.D. student didn't report her rape---sentencing multiple other women to potentially become victims---because she didn't like police.
13) We'll see, but Speaker Mikey Johnson has said he will "codify" many of Trump's executive orders.
14) The House just re-passed the SAVE votrer integrity act to match the Senate's bill, and now it looks like it may pass. Can't Carry a Thune says he can pass it in the Senate. We'll see.
15) LAPD will not enforce Oleaginous Gruesome's ban on LEOs wearing face masks. Guess they don't want to have their families targeted, either.
16) I didn't see this episode on "Suits" or "Franklin and Bash," as a Bexar Co. judge was arrested for having an attorney handcuffed and locked in a jury box. She's out of order. Her whole damn court is out of order.
IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS
17) This fight is going to be two steps forward and one back, as a Ninth Circuit Appeals Court panel said that DHS cannot remove deportation protections for 9,000 Venezuelans.
IN CULTURAL NEWS
18) The great Ryan Burge asks churches, "When are half your members going to be dead?" In mainstream Protestant churches the average age is between 67-69.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
19) Home Depot has cut 800 corporate jobs and required employees to return to the office. China Virus is officially dead, Jim.
20) WINNING: Unemployment insurance claims fall to the lowest since September 2024---and remember, back then, the jobs stats were packed with gubment employees who are otherwise engaged right now.
21) Elon Musk announced Tesla is cutting production lines to build Optimus Robots. Like this?
22) Lawmakers are probing Ford over its ChiCom battery business.
23) Gold and silver crashed after the Federal Reserve held interest rates steady.
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
25) Venezuela approved a reform that opens the country's oil reserves to outside investment---but not the ChiComs'.
26) Japan is sitting on $6 trillion in foreign assets, and investors are skittish they may suddenly SELL! SELL!
27) The number of women in Mediocre Britain getting abortions has skyrocketed---just one more reason why the little island will soon be NBM---nothing but Muslims. It is also reflective of the de-Christianization of Mediocre Britain and the hopelessness about the future that people without God experience.
28) Ruh roh. Trouble in Chy-na as now lower level bureaucrats and military people don't seem to be taking Xi's orders anymore. Maybe he needs a good speech from SpewMore or Illicit Mullah Omar to energize the troops?
29) Next up to fail are Europe's chemical industries, all due to "climate change" hoaxism.
30) A Canadian woman was euthanized against her will after her husband said her caregiver had "burnout."
31) Now Sweden says it will pay immigrants $37,000 to go home. What happened to Minnesota nice?
32) The entire idea of the EU was to form one "union" in which stronger countries could help pull along the weaker ones. Oops. Now there is being floated a "two speed" Europe concept in which six of the stronger economies with operate apart from the lower tier.
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
34) A handful of diddlepicker voters kept Coach Bill Belichek, merely the most successful coach in NFL history, out of the Hall of Fame on the first ballot, entirely out of jealousy.
35) God, please make it stop. There is another "Fast and Furious" coming. Pretty soon it will be "Fast and Furious: the Wheelchair Run." But you know. "Family."
IN MEDICAL NEWS
36) I could stand to lose 5 pounds. Maybe 10. (At my rock and roll peak, I weighed 129! I fit in a size 29 pant! Five hours a night playing and, well, not eating, will do that). Anyway, I have nevertheless avoided any weight loss drugs like Ozempic or Wegovy. Something in my spirit said, "They haven't really tested these effectively yet." Case in point, A wave of lawsuits is now hitting these companies with one person saying, "My colon just blew up.' Oooook. Related? A former Nassau school bookkeeper spent school money on weight loss drugs. Just guessing, but did she also need money for UGLEEEE modifications?
37) RFK, Jr., says over 100 studies on the cause of autism are under way.
AND FINALLY. . .
38) Polar bears are getting fatter and healthier despite stupid "climate change" warnings. Gee, what are they eating?
