The News of Today is the History of Tomorrow
*Happy birthday to Mrs LS.
IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) Hey, remember that Great MAGA Crackup that supposedly the defection of people like Marjorie Taylor Greene was to trigger? Yeah, good times. Trump now has a breathtaking 100% support within MAGA.
2) The Pentagon plans to keep the National Guard in D.C. until 2029. Interesting. Right after J.D. Vance is safely elected. Hey, if it works, if murders are down, absolutely. Meanwhile, when it comes to the Middle East,
3) The dismantling of the Department of Education gloriously continues as Treasury takes over handling of student loans.
4) James "Scrotumtoter" Comey has been subpoenaed again for his role in the anti-Trump conspiracy. He got off once, but he may not get off a second time. This case is not in friendly D.C., but in FL, and as Jeff Childers' notes, that might not be as safe for Scrotumtoter. This is not a one-off against Scrotumtoter, but a large investigation with oer 130 subpoenas out already. Right on cue, a member of the senior intelligence service says that U.S. intel hid ChiCom election interference in 2020.
5) Japan's PM Takaichi visited the White House for "very difficult" meetings with Trump over the supporting the Strait of Hormuz opening vs. Japan's laws that restrain its military efforts abroad. Nevertheless, she agreed to try, as did European nations, who will assist as soon as Trump said "We don't need them." This was masterful, as apparently they suddenly realized that if we don't need them, NATO is kaput. Suddenly they jumped back in. Bloomberg is all upset that we're killing mullahs so fast we don't have anyone left to talk to. That's reminiscent of Reagan's quip when Brezhnev died saying, "I want to negotiate with the Soviets but they keep dying on me." The unaliving contines, as over 300 of the IRGC's operational commanders met the 72 Virginians. Then there is this leading propagandist was rendered room temperature. Meanwhile, the more or less powerless Iranian civilian leader, Masoud Pezeshkian, is "considering" retiring because no one is keeping him in the loop---not that he can do a damned thing anyway. And Gulf News is asking the pertinent question, "Who controls the Guards?" At any rate, thanks to Iran's stupidity (maybe those turbans fry their brain cells?), the U.S. now controls 20% of world oil. As to those rumors that we will have "boots on the ground," Trump says "I'm not putting troops anywhere!"
7) Common sense DemoKKKrat "moderates" over at the Liberal Patriot are celebrating several primary victories by non-nutcases, without realizing that the entire party image is of nutcases. These people may win in deep blue districts, but the party's Terror-oriented positions are repulsive to Americans. Here is another long-time DemoKKKrat "moderate," Julian Epstein, chastizing the DemoKKKrats for "rooting for failure" in the conflict with Iran. The latest polling strangely, I think, confirms. Cackles leads Buttplugs and the Oleaginous Butyraceous Gruesome. Note that the Amazing Zohran isn't listed yet, as he has so quickly screwed up New Kabul no one (yet) is willing to put his name out there.
8) True cause for celebration, as the FBI (that would be, ultimately, Pam Bondi, right?) has located 6,200 children in its rescue missions and is relocating them with families or providing other "appropriate placement."
9) Poor Big Tish James. This lyin' hoe can't get anything right. Now Fortune values Trump's Mar-a-Lago at over $550 million.
10) Trump has temporarily waived the Jones Act that required everything be shipped in American vessels to speed up oil delivery.
11) Thousands of TSA agents are calling in sick, threatening a national air shutdown because of the DemoKKKrats.
12) Dissatisfied that he hasn't done enough to destroy the Garbage State (Kollyfornia), the Oleaginous Butyraceous Grusome wants $114 million for a wildlife bridge.
13) A former middle school teacher in NY ran prostitution parties out of his home and his nickname was "Major Hands."
14) I"m fine with the CIA being torn down to the studs. Under Rutabaga, it warned that "traditional motherhood" was a code phrase for "white nationalism." Did you get that? Doing laundry, cleaning up doggie poop, packing lunches, and taking care of children is white extremism." Yet the useless CIA's own study couldn't produce one single instance of this connection. Then there is IL governor Porky Pritzker whose "Project 2029" vows to round up Republicans. They need to loose this guy out in Yellowstone and let some cowhands "round him up,"
IN CULTURAL NEWS
15) Not nearly enough: Berkeley will pay $1 million to settle an antisemitism suit. Should be $1 billion.
16) Here is an interesting look at where Americans moved in 2025.
18) I love it. The U.S. mint just approved a commemorative gold coin with Trump's face on one side and him leaning over the Resolute desk on the other.
IN TRANSOID NEWS
19) A San Diego hospital pulled the plug on transoid treatments and mutilation for kiddos.
21) The Pulse nightclub in FL, where 10 years ago 49 were killed, is being leveled. There will be a memorial to homosexuality of some sort built there.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
22) The Trump administration announced construction of a new $17 billion power plant in PA.
23) Goldman Sachs says AI has contributed "basically zero" to economic growth. Maybe that's because AI companies are too busy still buying up "carbon credits." Meanwhile, the NYSlimes reports that, gosh, AI is writing fiction. And it's good too. Publishers were caught "unaware." Say what? You mean like the mullahs in Iran were "unaware" that they were about to be vaporized? Even worse, Ai is now using AI to tell people what is written by AI and what is written by people. And it wouldn't lie to us, would it?
24) New York governor Hock-a-Lugie now is begging millionaires to return to the state after both she and Amazing Zohran promised to take the life out of them.
25) Alaska's new oil lease sale had 430 bidders and brought in $163 million.
26) I don't like this at all. NVIDIA has announced it will resume making chips for Chy-na. No. Don't sell them a damned thing unless it explodes one hour after delivery.
27) The price of single family homes has dropped even further.
28) When not killing babies, Planned Murderhood is discriminating against white employees, and just had to settle a suit to that effect.
29) The FCC approved a merger between NextStar and a rival.
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
30) John Cleese, the British actor and star of the Monty Python movies warns that Britain will cease to exist if replaced by Islamic values. A probably final fight is coming for Mediocre Britain with the "Restore Britain" movement that seeks to execute pedophiles, deport migrants, and ban incompatible and religious practices. About time.
32) Iran was already a pariah in the Middle East, but with new waves of attacks on Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Kuwait, it is just forming the largest coalition against it in human history. Heck, even the Frogs might temporarily act brave. Do you know where to find French cologne? It's behind the American bottles. It's called "Surrender."
33) Gotta hand it to those Danes. They know who the real enemy in the world is: they were prepared to blow up Greenland airfields to stop a U.S. troop landing there. Ah, little cheeseeaters, we don' need no stinkin' runways to take Greenland. If we decided to do it, you'll be informed.
34) Chinese nationals are vanishing abroad as the regime tightens exit controls.
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
36) Legendary karate movie star Chuck Norris, the man no man could kill, dead at age 86 in an unspecified "medical emergency" in Hawaii. He was known for his long run as "Walker: Texas Ranger." Here is a little history factoid. A group of real Texas Rangers, outnumbered 5:1 by Indians, for the first time were carrying Colt pistols, and won the engagement. Later, the captain of the unit wrote a letter to Sam Colt, who made the pistols. He said that there were flaws in the design, but he'd help Colt fix them and it would be the perfect "hand cannon." The captain's name? "Walker, Texas Ranger." RIP Chuck. You Da Man.
IN MEDICAL NEWS
38) A damning study of myocarditis in kids found that only those who took the vax were affected. Dr. Fallacy should swing from one of Elon's Starlink satellites.
39) Just ask Grok: it searched the entire internet and could find no---not one-studies that showed the vax benefitted the elderly.
AND FINALLY . . .
40) And here's yet another endangered species that "isn't quite dead yet." The Nightjar has seen its numbers double in five years. (I think I said "Nightstar" in the video."
