The News of Today is the History of Tomorrow

IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) The Trump administration has sued New Azteca (LA) for preventing ICE officers and others from doing their jobs. I'm totally at a loss here. I've been patient. But why are you SUING and not ARRESTING that toilet-muffin Mayor ASS? If there is one thing that dealing with thugs, criminals, and the uber rich has taught us is that financial fines MEAN NOTHING. The people who perpetrate these heinous acts of fecalbilge never pay the bills. They foist it onto taxpayers and/or stockholders. Now, I don't know if Pam Bondi's lawyers are telling her that such criminal indictments would be thrown out; that they would never work; that the taxpayers would pay her defense, or what. But they have FA'd and now it's time to FO.
2) That's not to say that Trump's lawyers from Solicitor General to the DOJ aren't extremely effective. They are. Consider the recent questioning in front of the Fifth Circuit over Trump's use of the "Aliens and Enemies Act." The judge asked if the counsel for Tren de Arugula could cite a single case in which a court was allowed to countermand an Executive decision that about an "armed invasion." Poor Tren de Aurugala lawyer could not. Game, set, match. As Jeff Childers put it, "the ACLU handed the court a one-sentence shortcut: no case law, no authority, no judicial override . . . .The decision writes itself."
3) In the 1973 movie Dirty Harry movie "Magnum Force," Harry's recurring line was "A man's got to know his limitations." Such is the case with Elon Musk. After he got a whiff of political power in DOGE, suddenly he thinks he understands American politics and has threatened to primary any Republican voting for the Big Beautiful BIll (i.e., all of them except St. Thomas of Spooge). He completely fails to understand the American system of government as intended by the Founders is very slow, gradual change. With the exception of the Civil War and the Great Depression, most of America's political history has reflected this. Even the changes wrought by WW I didn't last six months after the war ended. So not only will this effort be useless (creating a new, effective, political party last occurred in 1855), but the winner-take-all/single-member-district system prohibits it. Oh, and Elon's impact on the Senate? It passed the BBB. The Senate version actually includes the elimination of Medicare for illegals and eliminates all subsidies to wind/solar/weather power. Well done, Senate. It does raise the question of whether, in fact, John Can't-Carry-a-Thune isn't better at his job than we think.
4) Elon Musk's war with Donald Trump continues, leading Trump to now threaten to sic DOGE itself on Musk. Elon is like Green Screen Zelensky here: he has no cards. It's a stupid fight on his part, and, having alienated the left, he as a businessman is alienating the right. I'm reminded of the John Lennon/Paul McCarney feud where they never truly made up in person. Sad. Elon is a foreigner who does not understand the basic workings of U.S. government. Which, by the way, you can get here:

5) Just the latest from the "commonsense" DemoKKKrats, who know that the party has a "patriotism problem." But I see nothing in here that realistically would work. And here is just another example of why the "commonsense" DemoKKKrats have no chance at fixing their party: the latest strategy is to have a national "sick out" day where DemoKKKrats don't go to work, school, etc. Yeah, that's the ticket. Remind people why they don't miss you.
6) The Big Beautiful Bill passed the Senate, removing subsidies for wind and solar, and also eliminated Medicaid funding for Planned Murderhood. Now back to the House which just passed it to the floor. Newsweak said Trump had his best week of his presidency.
7) Pollster Kristen Anderson admitted she was wrong about Trump, and that he did better with every group she said he'd struggle with. Jeez, Kris, you coulda talked to me a year ago.
8) The Trump Presidential Library fund is already at $56 million after the latest contribution from the fecalspuds at Paramount, who paid out $16 million for a, as CNN puts it, "dubious" lawsuit over the Cackles political donation called an interview. As only Jeff Childers can put it, the Library will "probably be built out of gold-plated server racks and feature AI-powered holograms narrating Trumpian greatness in surround sound. It will be YUGE. Possibly intergalactic.".
9) Love it. The FBI will move, not to a brand new building in Maryland, but to the REAGAN Building in D.C.
10) Trump appointed his hot and extremely effective attorney, Alina Habba, as the federal attorney for NJ.
11) Secretary of State Muy Macho Marco has ordered the removal of ANY logos other than that of the American flag from all departments.
IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS
12) I think Ron DeSantis has found his way back into MAGA: he is deputizing National Guard members to be immigration judges with same-day deportations!
IN TRANSOID NEWS
13) The new head of the International Olympic Committee hinted strongly that she will "protect the female category," which seems to mean no transoids.
14) As Jennifer Sey says, the "world is catching up" to the fact that men cannot become women and women cannot become men. Under pressure gender-criticals, and conservatives were right all along to “hold the line” and refuse to give an inch to any aspect of transgender ideologyof losing their ill-gotten gold, the U. of Pennsylvania has apologized to female swimmers whose medals were stolen by the man posing as a woman, Will ("Lea") Thomas and all medals will be restored and the women will receive a full apology. Reminder: when girls complained, the U told them to seek therapy.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
15) Kollyfornia has rolled back a signature environmental regulation that was pricing houses out of existence. Is this an ice bath of reality for DemoKKKrats? Doubt it. Unlike the New York Slimes, I certainly don't think any other states will learn from Kollyfornia's mistakes. "Dey jes kain't hep it."
16) President Trump fast tracked "eco-permitting" to allow more rapid construction of bridges and roads.
17) The insanity in Kollyfornia continues. After Phillips Petroleum closed one refinery there in 2024, Valero Benica refinery will close in 2026, meaning that Kollyfornia is now a national security threat.
18) Tariff cash is rolling in, with June's take $20.5 billion more than a year ago.
19) U.S. job openings in May hit 7.8 million, showing labor market's "resilience" and of course defying the "experts" whose "expectations" were beaten again.
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
20) It wasn't just Iran that got bitchslapped in the B-2 bombing of the nuke facilities: it was the ChiCom gubment, which stood by helplessly.
21) Imagine that: Canuck tourism is suffering after repeated blasts by the Prime Monster against the U.S.
22) ChiCom tech company Huawei will stand trial in the U.S. on charges of fraud, racketeering, and patent-stealing.
24) President Trump got a wonderful trade deal with Veetnam, with a 20% tariff on everything they ship and 40% on transshipments. Gee, I hope all those transoids are ok with being re-shipped.
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
25) Televangelist Jimmy Swaggert, dead at age 90.
26) Dixar---Disney/Pixar---tried to put out a homosexual-themed film "Elio." Test audiences hated it. As in when asked who would pay to see it in a theater, not one hand went up. They changed it, but the movie still is sucking.
27) The jury split the baby on this one, finding P. Diddley guilty of transporting to engage in prostitution, but not guilty in the big charges of sex trafficking or running a criminal enterprise.
IN CHINA VIRUS NEWS
28) RFK, Jr. explained how the CDC jimmied the books on autism by eliminating virtually all kids under four years old. Thus the real autism rate is over 1100%. HHS also plans to look at multiple other vaccines.
29) Big Pharma, in a leaked memo, showed that it is terrified of RFK, Jr. and his war on unnecessary vaxxes. It suggested ways to "get" him including separating him from The Donald. Nope, won't happen.
AND FINALLY . . .
30) Stephen Miller has called on other states to build their own versions of Alligator Alcatraz. Heck, if we didn't have the Evil Hobbit as gov, we could have the Havasupai Hotel or the Joshua Tree Jug in place in a few weeks. Maybe even bring ol' Sheriff Joe out of retirement to run 'em.
