The News of Today is the History of Tomorrow

IN POLITICAL NEWS

1) President Trump had his fourth cabinet meeting in 100 days (Rutabaga had nine in FOUR YEARS), and all of the secretaries praised Trump's programs, which greatly irritated the Moloch-lovers. SecState Muy Macho Marco Rubio revealed that Rutabaga had an office specifically tasked to produce disinformation on political opponents.

2) If there was a competition among Trump's cabinet secretaries for who could do the most the fastest, it would be a tie among Doug Burgum, Chris Wright, Lee Zeldin, and RFK, Jr. (sad to say, so far, Pam Bondi would be in the second tier). Nevertheless, RFK, Jr. issued a stunning statement that the Rutabaga administration played a part in child trafficking and that the Trump administration is searching for 300,000 kids. Sadly, history suggests these poor kids are going to be impossible to find, but it is absolutely worth the search.

3) Finally! Robert Kennedy's HHS is requiring all new vaxxes to be tested against placebos. I would amend that to say they all must be tested on vax CEOs first. By the way, the Rutabaga=era vax snakeoil salesmen are deeply disturbed that vaxxes might actually be tested by someone other than Pfizer or Moderna. Gee, wonder why?

4) Slowly the dam is breaking, as a GA legislator who called for Trump's assassination has been arrested on sex trafficking charges. This "may" be how Bondi is handling this. Suspecting she will not be able to get convictions on their actual crimes of treason and overall spooge-spreading, she may be using alternative laws---particularly sex-trafficking, which, in fact, most of these Moloch-lovers have likely engaged in, to put them away.

5) The FBI has punished/reassigned agents who took a knee during George Floyd riots. Sounds merciful to me.

6) NM saw a net GOP gain of over 700, slashing some 5,000 off the D's margin since November 2024. In New Jersey, Rs net gained 1,800 last month. More GOP registration news, this time from IA where Rs out-registered Ds by a net of 2,180. Again, with a single week exception in PA, this string of GOP registration net gains is unbroken in nearly a year in every state.

7) James O'Keefe promises a "bombshell" drop in a week and adds, "I am not suicidal. Please pray for me."

8) New York Public Schools sent a newsletter to teachers accusing Israel of "genocide" in Gaza.

9) Great news, as in TX, Sen. Cornhole trails Ken Paxton in the senate race.

10) Frustrated DemoKKKrats are calling for more mass protests. Cuz, you know, the last ones full of geriatric white people on crutches and sucking on inhalers was just sooooooo effective in stopping President Trump. By the way, Trump has signed an order terminating government funding for NPR and PBS.

11) The State Department is dismantling an anti-Israel rogue ageency. Meanwhile, it looks like Hegseth won (my newly-christened nickname for him is "The Punisher"), as Nat Security Advisor Mike Waltz is stepping down along with his leaky advisor Alex Wong. And I don't think they got the Wong man here. However, now Muy Macho Marco will take over as National Security Advisor, as well as being Archivist and heading USAID. Seems to me this points to two developments. First, Trump increasingly trusts Muy Macho as he has been at the forefront of slapping down people like Green Screen Zelensky. Second, I think this was part of Trump's overall consolidation/eliminate waste plan to combine the positions anyway. Oh, and it wouldn't be the first time the Secretary of State wore so many hats. In the War of 1812, Secretary of State James Monroe had to become in essence acting president when President James Madison was forced to ride out of DC and go on the lam, and then Madison, when he caught up to the incompetent Secretary of War, William Eustis, fired him, then after replacing him with John Armstrong, fired him as well, making Monroe the temporary Secretary of War as well.

12) Here is new info on the legal and financial troubles of Epstein accuser Virginia Guiffre following her suicide.

13) The U.S. government settled with the family of Ashi Babbit, the unarmed woman shot by that criminal Michael Byrd, for $30 million. But he still flies free.

14) President Trump has announced a military parade on June 14 to celebrate the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary.

15) Trump has made his first appellate judge nomination. Whitney Hermandorfer has a record primarily of standing up to transoids in women's sports and as a pro-life advocate. Please, though ACB has been ok, no more ACBs. More Scalias, Thomases, and Alitos.

16) Little Red Lyin' Hood, former press sec Jen Psaki, said she "never saw" a "diminished" Rutabaga. That's, as I keep saying, because he was already "diminished" when she FIRST saw him, meaning the old Demented Pervert looked quite normal.

IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS

17) Me-hee-co says it has already accepted 39,000 deportees.

18) The U.S. has created a second military zone along the border with Me-hee-co.

IN CULTURAL NEWS

19) An alarming trend among college seniors is that most don't have a job lined up and over 1/3 haven't even started looking.

20) Is it true, as Bob Dylan sang, "The Times, They are a' changin'?" The most recent study of da youts shows that nearly 3/4 say they are "flourishing," that religion plays a key role in that, and those who are "religious" as in going to church seem to "flourish" a little more than those who just say they are "spiritual."

IN ECONOMIC NEWS

21) Imagine that. Work that involves "man time" makes men more productive.

22) In the latest report, consumer spending rose and investment soared. Sounds pretty confident to me. Plus, the U.S. economy added 177,000 more jobs, beating expectations.

23) President Trump touted $8 trillion in new investment in a meeting with business leaders.

24) More than 125,000 New Yorkers fled to Florida, taking $14 billion in tax revenue with them.

25) Kohl's Department Stores has fired its CEO for "malpractice." Yeah, the female sexual organ struck again, as he was cavorting with a "glamorous" retail guru.

26) Speaking of malpractice, Xcel Energy, Colorado's largest energy producer, is now having Iberian problems of blackouts and lack of service.

27) The DOJ has filed a pair of lawsuits against Hawaii and Michigan to prevent them from seeking damages from auto emissions (i.e., lawfare against Detroit).

28) The S&P is growing again, eliminating all "Liberation Day' losses while Chy-na bends the knee on more tariffs.

29) President Trump has fast tracked new mining projects.

30) This is an amazing statistic, as over 1 million native=born jobs have been created, while the number of foreign-born employees fell by 410,000.

IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS

31) Euro green companies are getting so desperate they are now attempting to align the "clean energy" firms with the military to ensure sales. Meanwhile, as David Blackmon, the Rush Limbaugh of Energy, notes, the renewables propaganda apparently senses that the Spain/Portugal moment was an existential threat to "green" and has rolled out the full propaganda network.

32) The Ukraine minerals deal alluded to Wednesday came through.

33) I keep sayin' it and sayin' it. Ain't I been sayin' it? The ChiCom economy is far weaker than many think. Now they are set to lose 35 million jobs to Trump tariffs. I think that number is way low.

34} The Huns are doing to the AfD party what we should be doing to the DemoKKKrats, declaring it officially "extremist." In fact, the sausage-sniffers in Bonn are the real fascists.

35) Remember that Russkie military that was supposed to be out of men because of Ukraine? Now the Wall Street Journal warns that Russia will now invade all of Europe while the Times of London says Europe "would struggle" to put 25,000 troops on the ground in such a war. Wait, I thought Mediocre Britain was going to save Ukraine all by itself? Oh, and as Jeff Childers points out, there is a story that military chiefs of Mediocre Britain planned the goofball Ukrainian "Thunder Run" into Kiev. Oh, and much buzzbub ("Buzz" + "Hubbub") is made about a Uke drone shooting down a Russkie jet. Get used to it. This is the ChiComs' future.

IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS

36) Here are several takes on one of the greatest comedies every produced, "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," which turns 50. "Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time." In my college class, "Technology and the Culture of War," when I got to the medieval period of combat, I'd warn the students that some very graphic scenes were coming depicting swordplay of the era, then roll the music to the "Black Knight" scene. Usually applause would follow. I found that the college-aged boys were far more receptive to British humor.

37) The "Minecraft" movie has fallen to the third spot in the weekend dailies, but still has grossed over $850 million worldwide. Ben Affleck's "The Accountant 2" has done a respectable $44 million so far, with "Sinners" at the #1 spot with a total gross of $186 million.

IN CHINA VIRUS NEWS

38) Nicholas Hulscher: we have the data, and it's time to ban mRNA.

39) Are mass mRNA vaxxes causing a global fertility decline? Probably contributing to it, but this was underway long before vaxxes, and is getting to the catastrophic level. For example, Shanghai and Beijing have seen their birthrates fall by half in the last couple of decades; the U.S. is already a younger nation than Chy-na; and with the exception of a few small Islamic countries, the entire world is seeing a demographic collapse.

40) To that end, see my book review yesterday of Peter Zeihan's new book, The End of the World is Just the Beginning. It carries mostly sober (except when he gets to "climate change") warnings about the depopulation the world is facing . . now.

41) A new "all-cause" mortality study in Florida shows that far more people died after the Pfizer vax than after the Moderna vax. The authors did not compare the unvaxxed, but the implications were obvious. No vax was safe and effective.

AND FINALLY . . .

42) A newly developed antidote neutralizes the venom of some 20 of the world's deadliest snakes. Unfortunately, it still cannot neutralize the bite of the D.C. Backstabber, the deadliest reptile of all.
