IN POLITICAL NEWS


1) Voter registrations continue to shift to Rs. The latest from FL shows that the state is a GOP juggernaut, adding net 35,000 over Ds, though it looks like most of the D defections ended up as independents---but still the Rs gained at least a clear 24,000, bringing the state lead to a mind boggling 1.527 million. Voter roll purges in RI left the Rs net gaining 4,000 on Ds. Seth Keshel's analysis of changes in PA is a little complicated, but of the 23 counties that shifted to Ds, the average shift was a little over 150 voters, while the Trump flip counties of Erie and Northampton continue to redden. As Seth put it, 20 of 67 counties have an active registration shift to the right; and "the PA voter registration surge to the left was primary-driven and primarily contained in the Philadelphia collar counties, with slight bleed toward the general southeast." DemoKKKrats did gain a net 10,000 in IA, most likely from competitive primaries, but we'll see. CNN's Harry Enten says DemoKKKrats cannot win the Senate. Now, Harry, admit they won't win the House either. That has led the New York Slimes to edge ever so closely to what I've said for 2 years: the DemoKKKrats have multiple civil wars going on. They are so skeeered that the brilliant thinker Hank Johnson, who warned that Guam might "tip over" if too many people went there, said if DemoKKKrats don't win the mid-terms "We're going back to the cotton fields." Trust me buddy, you'd produce more value there than you do in Congress.



3) We all guessed this: the fascist DemoKKKrat Socialist thyroidmonkeys are NOT "proletariat" or "working class" (a Marxist phrase) at all, but highly educated, wealthy and 85% white. THIS IS THE NEW NEOCOLONIALISM. And, as MSN notes, people like the DemoKKKrat Fascist programs---until they have to pay for them. Then, . . . oops!---some 59% think they are already overtaxed. Good luck.

8) For all the ACB haters out there, take a look at this great chart. Alito and Thomas have voted almost 100% with Trump, but Gorsuch, Kegger, and ACB have overwhelmingly voted with him, with ACB almost identical to Kegger and Gorsuch. Meanwhile, speaking of ACB, President Trump already has an end-run in place where no expectant mothers will be allowed through the border.


9) Once in a while the cards fall the other way, as a judge has blocked VA's law to bar ICE agents from wearing masks.


10) Fat Fani won't be happy, as the FBI has "surged" more investigators and resources into the 2020 stolen election in GA. Great. Now do AZ. According to Jeff Childers, Kash Patel said the investigations involve overtime and need to be completed in two weeks.


11) The TDS two-step in action again, as a "judge" has temporarily blocked Trump's USPS plan. This will be appealed and reversed, as they almost all are. Every single Trump exec order now will have this two-step scenario: Trump announces, a porksniffer judge blocks, he's overturned. Case in point: an appeals court sided with Trump on the kerfuffel of removing signs in national parks.


12) There is a fight brewing between the Intel agencies and President Trump, who wants a master list of all spies, while the spooks don't want to provide anything to anyone. They MUST be brought under control. For example, this ex-CIA officer said that MK-Ultra, the Agency's illicit mind control program was never ended. And as hideous as the CIA is, the incompetent Secret Service missed 102 warnings before Butler.


13) All those furriners who supposedly hate us? Yeah. The Eiffel Tower will be lit in red, white, and blue; as will three major buildings in Tokyo. Melbourne, Perth, and other Aussie cities will be lit red, white, and blue. But not the sod-stuffing Brits. Oh no. Doesn't matter, the rest of the world is participating in a 16-mile procession of tall ships. Multiple foreign aerobatic military teams will participate in red, white, and blue flyovers, including the French Air Force team. But some anal-clots in America are doing what they can to downplay the 250th. This West Haven, CT, ordered two bars closed and Philly canceled its parade due to "heat." Um hum.


IN AI NEWS



15) Elsewhere in AI world, Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir, an AI giant, says investors were misled with an "insane" business model that leaves they paying for "token" gains. He also said that the U.S. is outsourcing powerful models worldwide. Karp spoke as "the voice of American business." Indeed, it appears a larger debate is breaking out over how powerful or useful AI tools really are.


16) Small gas turbines are coming on line to address the AI data center power issues.


IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS


17) Illegal criminal alien immigrant arrests have surged to 10,000 in five days, with a goal of 3,000 a day on the horizon. At this rate, another 2 million would be gone by this time in 2028, or a total of about 5.5 million.


18) The labor market has tightened with the crackdown on illegal criminal invaders.


19) MA continues to dig its immigration hole, approving more and more money for the invaders at taxpayer expense. Odd that 250 years ago, freedom was born in MA, now the USA will have to re-install freedom in this commie Common wealth.


IN CULTURAL NEWS


20) Libs now outnumber conservatives 7:1 on college campuses. The reason is clear: search committees that hire new faculty are dominated by the left, and they will not allow in anyone other than a card carrying Commie toilet plunger.


IN ECONOMIC NEWS


21) As this chart makes clear, there IS NO "Energy Transition," except that there has been a growth in nukes and hydro. You can't even find solar or wind on the chart.


22) Swimming upstream, Tesla's deliveries rose 25% despite falling fuel prices and the end of subsidies, but in part represents the earlier spike in oil prices. Ford, on the other hand, reported a 40% drop in EV sales in the second quarter.


23) DemoKKKrats are always looking for anything they can find to make things harder on businesses. RI now will limit the number of self-checkouit lines in stores.


IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS


24) Global oil output is scheduled to outpace demand. Wait, I thought the Iranians had created an oil shortage?


25) The Iran so-called war---really a 100% total ass-kicking---has left the U.S. in undisputed world position with Iran crushed and Europe, India, and the ChiComs badly


26) A powerful chart here, as every single nation, ethnic group and religion, including Mormons and Muslims, are below replacement level---despite the hysteria about Muslims "outbreeding" us.


27) A clearly-stated Biblical sign of the end times, as support for rebuilding the Temple in Israel has grown.


IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS



29) SONY is ending all sales of physical games. It's new "Grand Theft Auto 6" has a $5 BILLION budget (for a damn game!) and will likely begin download prices at a stunning $80. Personally, I still have my Dreamcast and Sega Genesis and whatever games I really liked, such as "Mortal Kombat."


OPNION NOTE: get physical stuff. Keep it. This is especially true for books, which AI will edit, especially the Bible. Get physical books and games. The older the book, the better.



31) Tay.or Swift and Travis Kelce are getting married in Madison Sq. Garden, requiring 100 cops who will be taken from actually fighting crime to escort these chuddledumpers.


IN MEDICAL NEWS


32) The editors of the world's leading medical journals---British Journal of Medicine, the Lancet---say no one believes what they publish anymore, and that they cannot replicate the research. "Everywhere we've looked for corruption, we found it." Maybe that's why Scientific American was sold.


33) Another study says that light exercise combats cancer.


AND FINALLY. . .


34) Researchers discovered "climate resistant" coral reefs. Wait, so the earth can heal itself without our help? Who knew? Well, besides God. HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY AND HAPPY AMERICA'S 250th.
