Supreme Court Issues Big Decision on Birthright Citizenship Case
https://www.westernjournal.com/breaking-supreme-court-issues-big-decision-birthright-citizenship-case
In the first of several monumental decisions expected, SCOTUS handed President Donald Trump a critical win in his quest to rein in birthright citizenship.
In a 6-3 ruling on Trump v. CASA, the Supreme Court voted to narrow nationwide injunctions that had previously hampered Trump on a number of issues…Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote the majority opinion, explaining “that individual judges lack the authority to grant nationwide injunctions,”…“Nothing we say today resolves the distinct question whether the Administrative Procedure Act authorizes federal courts to vacate federal agency action,” (in actuality they kicked it back to lower courts,  – jlr)

Justice Amy Coney Barrett humiliates Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson over her apparent ignorance of American law
https://www.theblaze.com/news/justice-amy-coney-barrett-humiliates-justice-jackson-over-her-apparent-ignorance-of-american-law
…Not only did Jackson not get her way, her apparent ignorance and judicial freewheeling was exposed for all to see in CASA, where she noted in a dissenting opinion that the majority’s decision not only “diverges from first principles” but is “profoundly dangerous, since it gives the Executive the go-ahead to sometimes wield the kind of unchecked, arbitrary power the Founders crafted our Constitution to eradicate.”…Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who delivered the opinion of the court in CASA, noted that Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s dissent focused on “conventional legal terrain, like the Judiciary Act of 1789 and our cases on equity.” Jackson, on the other hand, chooses a startling line of attack that is tethered neither to these sources nor, frankly, to any doctrine whatsoever. Waving away attention to the limits on judicial power as a ‘mind-numbingly technical query’ … she offers a vision of the judicial role that would make even the most ardent defender of judicial supremacy blush. Barrett noted that her untethered colleague apparently believes both that “the fundamental role of courts is to ‘order everyone (including the Executive) to follow the law — full stop,'” and that “if courts lack the power to ‘require the Executive to adhere to law universally’ … courts will leave a ‘gash in the basic tenets of our founding charter that could turn out to be a mortal wound.'”…”In her law-declaring vision of the judicial function, a district court’s opinion is not just persuasive, but has the legal force of a judgment,” wrote Barrett. “Once a single district court deems executive conduct unlawful, it has stated what the law requires. And the Executive must conform to that view, ceasing its enforcement of the law against anyone, anywhere.”…Barrett nevertheless pointed out that the liberal justice “decries an imperial Executive while embracing an imperial Judiciary.”

Supreme Court upholds ban on Medicaid funds for Planned Parenthood
https://www.theblaze.com/news/supreme-court-planned-parenthood-medicaid
The Supreme Court upheld South Carolina’s decision to bar Planned Parenthood from accessing federal Medicaid funding for non-abortion-related services…The decision allows other states to implement similar policies that would prevent reimbursements for services not related to abortions, such as screenings or acquiring contraceptives…Federal law has prohibited using federal Medicaid for abortion services for decades, except in the cases of rape, incest, and life-threatening complications.

SCOTUS sides with parents; Alito nukes LGBT indoctrination campaign
https://www.theblaze.com/news/massive-victory-supreme-court-sides-with-parents-alito-nukes-lgbt-indoctrination-campaign
The woke district was initially willing to let parents opt their kids out of lessons incorporating the non-straight agitprop and to provide notice when radical works celebrating sex changes, Pride parades, and reality-defying pronouns such as “Pride Puppy,” “Born Ready: The True Story of a Boy Named Penelope,” and “My Rainbow” were read…the district determined that the opt-outs required by state law for sex education units of health classes did not apply, as the LGBT propaganda was introduced as part of the English curriculum… the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that the parents are entitled to a preliminary injunction that would permit them to have their kids excused from instruction related to the LGBT propaganda while their lawsuit proceeds. The high court reversed a lesser court’s judgment and noted that the parents “are likely to succeed on their claim that the Board’s policies unconstitutionally burden their religious exercise.”

Code Pink threatens DataRepublican with lawsuit — so she releases damaging evidence on social media
https://www.theblaze.com/news/datarepublican-code-pink-china-funding
The database kernel engineer, whose real name is Jennica Pounds, said Wednesday on social media that the group sent her a message accusing her of libel. “We are writing to formally address and correct the false and defamatory statements made in your recent social media posts regarding CODEPINK,” the group reportedly wrote. “These claims — which falsely allege that our organization is funded by China, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), or any foreign government or entity — are entirely baseless and constitute libel.”…She posted images from a Code Pink campaign called “China Is Not Our Enemy” and pointed out that the group was funded by a significant contribution from a businessman and social activist named Neville Singham. The billionaire is under congressional investigation for possibly violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act by possibly acting on behalf of the Chinese government…propaganda pushed by the group served to promote “pro-China messaging, including denial of the Uyghur genocide, an atrocity affirmed by the U.S. Department of State.”…posted an interview with Jodie Evans, the wife of Singham and co-founder of Code Pink, where she allegedly said that Uyghurs were terrorists, in order to justify their oppression by the Chinese government. Code Pink has also opposed the U.S. attacks on the Houthi terrorist group…DataRepublican had worked anonymously to uncover fraud and abuse in the government, but she revealed her identity in order to thwart the efforts of those who wanted to scare her into hiding. “I have been doxxed. Rather than let others control the narrative, I am addressing this directly,”

“Do you have certainty that all the highly enriched uranium was inside the Fordow mountain or some of it, because there were satellite photos that showed more than a dozen trucks there two days in advance?

Abrego Garcia’s attorneys throw last-minute Hail Mary to save him from deportation
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2025/06/27/abrego-garcias-attorneys-throw-last-minute-hail-mary-to-save-him-from-deportation-1554619/
In an emergency motion filed Friday, Abrego Garcia’s attorneys requested a federal magistrate judge in Tennessee delay his release from criminal custody until a July 16 hearing, according to court documents. This maneuver, his attorneys claimed, would prevent the Trump administration from quickly deporting him and provide the government more time to explain its intentions with the suspected human smuggler…The attorneys acknowledged the “irony” of their request, noting in their motion that Abrego Garcia had spent the last two weeks contesting his detention in Tennessee and federal prosecutors had previously requested he remain detained before his trial. The Salvadoran man could possibly be released from custody as early as Friday, unless the judge grants a delay.

Pentagon establishing 250-mile military buffer zone along southern border

cretary of Defense Pete Hegseth directed the creation of a new military buffer zone — formally known as a National Defense Area — covering roughly 250 miles along the Rio Grande River in Hidalgo and Cameron Counties,…new buffer zone will be considered an extension of Joint Base San Antonio, according to the Air Force. The land was previously administered by the International Boundary and Water Commission…“Their responsibilities include enhanced detection and monitoring through stationary positions and mobile patrols, temporarily detaining trespassers until they are transferred to the appropriate law enforcement authorities, and supporting the installation of temporary barriers, and signage to secure the area,”…The Pentagon already designated a 170-mile military buffer zone in New Mexico in April and a 63-mile zone in West Texas the following month…

LEFT WING INSANITY – YES, THEY ARE THIS STUPID
Left-Wingers Enter New Depths of Rage Over Supreme Court’s Nationwide Injunction Ruling
https://redstate.com/bonchie/2025/06/27/msnbc-bluesky-others-lose-their-ever-loving-minds-over-nationwide-injunction-ruling-n2190981
…the Trump administration scored a major victory on Friday after the Supreme Court ruled that district court-level nationwide injunctions exceeded judicial authority. That will throw a wrench into the left-wing strategy of seeking universal relief in a select few left-wing jurisdictions across the country and hopefully return some actual balance to the separation of powers within the U.S. government…MSNBC, Melissa Murray melted down, claiming the Supreme Court had “dealt a death blow to the rule of law.”… the purpose of a district court judge is not to “stop this administration” when she and other liberals get upset. Rather, it is to rule on the merits of the cases before them, with respect for established law, within the confines of their jurisdictions. As Justice Amy Coney Barrett noted in her blistering rebuke of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, checks and balances apply to the judicial branch, too. A single district court judge is not the supreme authority over the executive branch…ou’d think that someone like Jamelle Bouie, who writes for The New York Times, would have a basic understanding of that which he opines. You’d think that, but you’d be wrong. To be clear, the Supreme Court did not even consider the question of birthright citizenship in its ruling. As for the rest of the posts there, they are the typical left-wing tripe we’ve heard for years now. I especially love the idea that you can’t even critique Justice Jackson without it being an overt act of racism

“An LA Times reporter has posted a video in which she coaches LA moms who hire illegal immigrant nannies on how to protect them from ICE and ‘limit risk’ of an ICE encounter, including suggestions to give them ‘paid leave’, walk them to a bus stop, or call them a taxi to avoid public exposure,”…Presumably, hiring illegal immigrants is a common trait among the affluent in Southern California. It’s also a contributing factor to low wages for American citizens…

Your colleagues in the Republican Party do not hold each other accountable when it comes to the racism that comes from the party on a consistent basis.”…“Listen to what I’m saying.

…ATF and DOGE staffers are now poised to exceed that goal, with upward of 50 changes planned…The revisions are part of a seismic shift unfolding at ATF as the Trump administration proposes slashing the law enforcement agency’s budget and dramatically reducing the number of inspectors who ensure that gun sellers are in compliance with federal laws. Some Republicans in Congress have called for abolishing the agency altogether, and Attorney General Pam Bondi has said she wants to merge ATF with the Drug Enforcement Administration…The exact scope and details of the potential changes are still being determined. ATF has hundreds of regulations, and revisions could include changing the responsibilities of certain ATF positions, updating what types of firearms can be imported, and making licensing fees refundable…

As evidence of the level of concern of the federal government over the threat posed by Iranian and proxy sleeper cells, this week, Immigration and Customs enforcement arrested more than 130 Iranian nationals in the country illegally. Among them was Ribvar Karimi, a former Iranian army sniper arrested in Alabama, who entered the US in 2024 on a fiancé visa and never adjusted his immigration status. Agents found him with an Iranian military ID. Another interesting pickup was Mehran Makari Saheli, a former IRGC member who admitted ties to Hezbollah and had a prior felony conviction.

Hegseth Goes Up Against the Cultural Revolutionaries
https://gellerreport.com/2025/06/hegseth-goes-up-against-the-cultural-revolutionaries.html/
The facts of the matter are straightforward. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is striking back against the Obama/Biden cultural revolution by, among other actions, renaming the USNS Harvey Milk, a Navy oil tanker, after Medal of Honor recipient Oscar V. Peterson. The reactions from leftists, however, are as predictable as they are revealing. The left’s rage over the renaming of the USNS Harvey Milk reflects their shock and horror at the fact that their victory is not inevitable. The “progressives” confidently tell one another, and the world at large, that “history” is on their side and is moving inexorably in the direction of causes they favor. In such a scenario, setbacks have no place. The left is supposed to be moving society confidently ahead into pure socialism, and we are constantly told that we can “never go back.” Well, thanks to Pete Hegseth, we just did. We went back to honoring valor, courage, and self-sacrifice. We went back to removing the military from the realm of pushing social agendas.

Military War College Professors Still Show Their Left-Wing Stripes
https://redstate.com/chase-spears/2025/06/29/military-war-college-professors-still-show-their-left-wing-stripes-n2191030
It’s a reality that many military officers—especially faculty at military colleges—tend to lean left of center. Still, this comment from the CGSC professor caught me by surprise. Two issues immediately came to mind. First, the post reflected an ignorance of the president’s authority as commander-in-chief. Many experts have clarified that the president has the legal authority to order limited military engagements without prior congressional authorization. I won’t belabor that point here. But I do question how someone who has spent his entire adult life in the military—as both an officer and now a civilian instructor teaching mid-career officers—can appear unfamiliar with such basic knowledge of the craft. This is the kind of misunderstanding we expect from social media pundits, not seasoned professionals within the military education system.

GOP Rep Files Impeachment Articles Against Judge Who Blocked Trump’s National Guard Order
It seems like some judges have forgotten their job. They wear black robes, but they act like they have crowns on their heads. They sit in courtrooms but think they are ruling from a throne. These powerful, unelected officials often stop common-sense policies that were put in place by the leaders we actually voted for…Rep. Randy Fine, R-La., is filing a resolution to remove U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer from the bench on Friday. “The goal is to get judges to do their jobs. If we’re not going to try to hold accountable the ones that aren’t, then they have no incentive to stop,”

Just as important, Americans need to rethink how they buy beef: skip the globalist mega-supermarkets and instead support local ranchers directly.

The latest example of this comes from deposed (and, of course, bitterly resentful) MSNBC host Joy Reid, who went on an extended rant Tuesday targeting Secretary of State Marco Rubio as well as Trump. It was an extension of her 2019 claim that Trump was the focus of a “racial and religious cult of personality” and that white evangelical Christians took Orange Man Bad to be the “chosen one of God,” but this time Reid zeroed in on Rubio and sailed far beyond her earlier charges and directly into straight-up lunatic territory.

A Grand Ayatollah In Iran Just Issued A Fatwa That Designates Donald Trump As An “Enemy Of God”, And That Normally Results In Execution

One of the most important Shiite clerics in the entire world, Grand Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi of the Iranian holy city of Qom, has just issued a fatwa which officially declares Donald Trump to be an “enemy of God”. In Iran, those that are designated to be “enemies of God” under Islamic law are normally executed. According to an Iranian news source, the reason why Grand Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi has issued this fatwa is because Trump threatened Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei and other top Iranian leaders…

Take, for instance, the tale of Texas grandmother Rebbie Roberson. She’s sitting at home one night, watching television and minding her own business. Sitting there, not bothering anyone. Out of nowhere,, a burglar appears in her home and is pointing a gun to her head…he wasted no time turning around and pointing the gun right in HIS face. In what might be the most logical move he’d made that day, he turned around and began running out of the house…She wasn’t content to let sleeping dogs lie. She began opening fire, missing him but leaving several sizable bullet holes in the walls of her house. I can only imagine the damage she would have done to this guy if one of the rounds had made contact.

‘Just end him’: 5th-grade girls allegedly plotted to stab boy to death at school and make it look like a suicide
https://www.theblaze.com/news/5th-grade-murder-plot-girls
A shocking plot from 10- and 11-year-old girls to murder a boy and then stage his death as a suicide was thwarted when another student overheard them, police say. Details of the plot from the group of girls at the Legacy Traditional School’s West Surprise campus in Surprise, Arizona, were released in a police report. Police said the four girls planned the plot during a lunch and recess on Oct. 1, 2024. The student who overheard them reported the conversation to school officials. The plot had a role for each of the girls. One was supposed to have forged the suicide note to make it appear that the boy had committed suicide. Another girl was tasked with bringing the knife to school. Another girl was supposed to act like a lookout while the last girl would commit the stabbing. The girl who overheard the plot said she heard one girl say, “Just end him.”. Police said the girls might have been motivated to kill the boy after an alleged breakup and cheating incident. The police report said two of the girls were aged 10 years old, while the other two were 11 years old. The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office confirmed that the students had been charged as juveniles, and police had said they were suspended, pending expulsion. The Surprise Police Dept. said they did not plan to release any more details about the incident.

2 teenagers accused of shooting homeless man to death took photos of themselves with a gun
https://www.theblaze.com/news/nm-teens-shoot-kill-homeless
A23-year-old homeless man found dead in his tent was shot to death by two teenagers, according to New Mexico police. Christopher Sturluson was living in an arroyo in Albuquerque before workers at the Albuquerque Community Safety Department found his body on the morning of May 1. Albuquerque Police Department officers responded after ShotSpotter alerts indicated that about 10 gunshots were fired around 9 p.m. April 30. Police talked to Sturluson, who told them that people had fired in his direction. Later that same night, the ShotSpotter picked up another six gunshots in the same area between 10:15 and 11:50 p.m. Police identified two suspects through surveillance video and later arrested 18-year-old Joshua Curtis as well as a 17-year-old. Police said they were able to recover bullet casings from the scene. Police also found photographs the pair allegedly had taken of themselves with a gun, according to a KOB-TV report. The 17-year-old suspect turned out to be on juvenile probation after he was caught with a gun at Sandia High School in 2022. He was expelled from that school. The 18-year-old suspect has a criminal history that includes a pending case for assault on an officer. Bernalillo County District Attorney Sam Bregman said the fatality is clear evidence that the system is broken. “We have two teenagers accused of killing a homeless person,” said Bregman. “The frustration level, quite frankly, is at a boiling point. This will be, I believe, the 47th juvenile that we’ve charged with murder in this office since I’ve been district attorney.” Bregman has been calling for greater consequences for juvenile criminals. “If we don’t start doing something, we will continue to see this kind of result. We’re not teaching our kids anything when we’re not giving them consequences,” Bregman added. Bregman also said that “if convicted, this juvenile is facing the rest of his life in prison. We didn’t do any justice for the poor homeless person that’s dead, and we certainly didn’t do any justice for the kid that’s now charged with murder because we didn’t teach him anything when we had the chance.

10 people charged in connection with alleged murder of homeless man reportedly kidnapped from encampment in New York
https://www.theblaze.com/news/ithaca-homeless-murder-kidnap-jungle
Officials in upstate New York said 10 people were arrested in relation to the alleged kidnapping and murder of a homeless man who was living at an encampment in Ithaca. On May 20, 33-year-old Thomas Rath was forcibly abducted from an encampment called “the Jungle” located in a rustic area behind a Lowe’s home improvement store, according to investigators. About a hundred days later, his remains were discovered in a shallow grave on state land in the village of Candor in Tioga County, police said. Ithaca city police and New York State Police were alerted on May 26 about the suspicious circumstances surrounding Rath’s disappearance. After serving more than 40 search warrants in several locations as a part of the investigation, officials announced that nine of the 10 suspects were being charged with first-degree kidnapping while two suspects were being charged with second-degree murder. Officials also said more arrests were expected in the coming weeks. “[A]s this missing person case evolved, it revealed a particularly disturbing and heinous series of events which ultimately revealed the kidnapping and murder of Mr. Rath,” said New York State Police Troop C Commander Major Jeffery VanAuken at a media briefing Monday. Investigators were unwilling to reveal the victim’s cause of death in order to protect the ongoing investigation, but they did reveal that the victim had been “familiar” with the suspects and that it was not a random act of violence. “Some of these details will have to wait for court, unfortunately,” said investigator Captain Lucas Anthony. “It is an ongoing investigation, more arrests are coming. So some of that information is limited as to what we can release at this time.” Residents of Ithaca had been complaining about crime and drug abuse by homeless people who had camped at the Jungle.

Boys, just 7 and 9 years old, wrestle for loaded gun — and 1 points it at deputies during tense standoff
https://www.theblaze.com/news/boys-loaded-gun-armed-standoff-new-mexico-video
Newly released video shows two young boys engaging New Mexico deputies in an armed standoff. The boys, ages 7 and 9, both handled a loaded handgun — and one of them even pointed it at Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office deputies on Feb. 16. The two young boys, seen in the video dressed in “Minecraft” and “Star Wars”-themed pajamas, are standing next to an air-conditioning unit while handling a loaded handgun. During the nearly seven-minute video, the boys are seen struggling with each other to take control of the gun. A female voice is heard saying in the drone video, “Put it down, baby. Put it down, babe.” A deputy tells the children, “Just throw it on the ground, bud. Come talk to us. You’re not in trouble.” After more than five minutes into the standoff, police fired a warning shot — a non-lethal projectile — near the children, and the boy holding the gun immediately pointed it at officers. Deputies scream in unison, “Drop it! Drop it!” The boy who was not holding the gun put his hand up and hid behind the air-conditioning unit. Police fired another warning shot. As both boys took cover between the air conditioning unit and a house, a deputy rushed toward the children and wrestled the gun away from the boy, after which other deputies converged on the scene and took the pair into custody. The sheriff’s office said in a statement, “Utilizing BCSO’s drone program, deputies were able to monitor the situation in real-time, providing critical updates and enhancing situational awareness. This technology allowed deputies to secure the area swiftly and safely, ultimately preventing a potential deadly force encounter with the juveniles.” Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen stated, “I will tell, if it was not for our drone program, we would have probably went in there a little bit more blind and been into a deadly force confrontation pretty quick, and as you can imagine, it would have not gone well with us killing and shooting a 7- and 9-year-old.” Police said the drone program has been “instrumental in providing deputies with additional tools to manage diverse and high-risk situations.” Sheriff Allen said, “This case illustrates the complex intersection of juvenile crime, mental health, and public safety. We are taking important steps to close service gaps and expand our ability to work with juveniles involved in firearms or violent crimes.” Allen added that his department previously had been called to the home at least 50 times due to issues with the boys and their family, according to the Albuquerque Journal. BCSO Behavioral Health Unit Clinical Manager Michael Lucero said members of the unit immediately went to the boys’ home to assist the family with “numerous issues they’re experiencing” and conducted psychiatric evaluations of the children. Lucero said the unit is working on getting help for the children and the parent who reportedly has an extensive history of trauma. The family’s case agent, Danielle Smith, told KRQE-TV, “I don’t know how much I’m able to say, so I’m just gonna leave it very vague, but we know where the children learned the behavior from, and that is being addressed as well.” BCSO Deputy Deanna Aragon said the boys were not arrested, and no charges were filed against the children. She noted that the children have not been removed from the home. Law enforcement did not divulge where the boys got the gun but said the firearm was seized after the standoff. Sheriff Allen said the boys “were taught how to use the firearm.” Police said the case is still under investigation, and the parents could face charges. “We’re dealing with a 7- and 9-year-old, so now we’re looking at the adult side, how they had the firearm, are they gonna be charged with the Bennie Hargrove law, we’re looking into all of that,” Allen stated. The Bennie Hargrove law holds adults criminally liable for negligently allowing minors access to firearms. Allen also pushed back against critics who called for the arrest of the young boys. “Children are our future, and we know one side is going to say, ‘Lock them in jail.’ They’re 7 and 9 years old. I told you before, numerous times in numerous interviews, that I understand the frontal lobe,” Allen said, referring to children’s incomplete brain development. Allen added, “Arresting people isn’t the only way out of this crisis of juvenile crime. … You have to look at it from a bunch of different avenues and use the resources you have, and then criminal elements can come later.” Allen did note that if the boys were several years older, the department would “probably be speaking differently and doing it the reverse route.”

There were also eyewitnesses and video evidence showing Anthony as the aggressor…The question these last few months was, instead, when would Karmelo Anthony finally face justice for killing Austin Metcalf?…be prepared for the “Karmelo Anthony is the real victim here” narrative to go into overdrive as Collin County, Texas, officials have, at long last, indicted Anthony for first degree murder in the stabbing death of Austin Metcalf…Anthony’s defense attorney, Mike Howard, said the teen looked forward to his day in court: “We expect that when the full story is heard, the prosecution will not be able to rule out the reasonable doubt that Karmelo Anthony may have acted in self-defense.”

Dominique Alexander — president of Next Generation Action Network — posted on X: “To the racists, the bigots, and those filled with hate who’ve targeted Karmelo, his family, and even myself — you do not intimidate us. We are not backing down.”… “stand with us in the fight against white supremacy”… “This case is yet another example of what it means to be Black in America, where even our self-defense is questioned, scrutinized, and politicized.”…Anthony’s GiveSendGo fund as of Wednesday sits at over $538,000…TV host Auron MacIntyre had the following to say about the state of the criminal case and Alexander’s “white supremacy” reference: “The fact that Anthony and his family have claimed victimhood, even in the face of the incredible forgiveness offered by Austin Metcalf’s father, says it all. It is a sad truth that the narratives about ‘white supremacy’ taught to many minorities in the U.S. through the educational system and media quickly become a blank check for violence against white Americans.”

Some ‘Predictions’ For The Latter Half Of 2025… (Scary but somewhat possible – jlr)
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/some-predictions-latter-half-2025
Back in mid-January I issued “My Predictions For The Rest Of 2025.” We are half a year in, and I thought I should issue an update.
Ergo, I hereby present to you “My Updated Predictions For The Last Half Of 2025:”
*June 25—A lone federal district court judge rules that President Trump must re-rename the large body of water between Florida and Mexico “The Gulf of Mexico.”
*June 26—A lone federal district court judge, installed by Barack Obama in 2015, rules that all African-Americans must be given $2 million each in reparations—and a $1,000 IHOP gift card.
*June 27—Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) takes to the Congressional podium to vehemently declare that illegal aliens’ right to vote must be immediately codified and enshrined in law, while white people “and other infidels” should not be allowed to vote, in order to “save our democracy.”
*June 28—Yes, the Chicago White Sox are mathematically eliminated from playoff contention.
*July 7—Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney jointly issue a stunning announcement: Minnesota will become Canada’s 11th province as of August 1st.
*July 24—A lone federal district court judge rules that President Trump must “immediately restore the White House to exactly as it looked at the very moment when President Biden left office on January 20th, 2025.”
*August 12—With the Canadian wildfires raging as strong as ever, four months in, President Trump, citing national security and health concerns, decides to annex Canada and put out the fires. This also reunites Minnesota with the United States. Sort of. Trump says, “I must protect the rights of American citizens to go outdoors, play golf, and breathe without being forced to inhale toxic smoke that could eventually kill them.”
*August 30—A lone federal district court judge rules that Trump must un-annex Canada and restart the Canadian wildfires.
*September 10—Elon Musk, continuing to try to patch things up with President Trump, says that he misspoke when his tweet implied that Trump visited Epstein Island. Musk says what he meant to tweet was that Trump had once visited Gilligan’s Island. “My bad,” says Musk.
*September 23—A lone federal district court judge rules that, contrary to recent Trump administration directives, the United States military must be at least 50% comprised of members of the LGBTQ Community by Jan. 1, 2027.
*September 30– Extensive new studies find that COVID-19 vaccines injured or killed far more people than originally thought…prompting the mainstream media to immediately launch a series of programs revisiting the “January 6 Insurrection.”
*October 12—Kamala Harris is found passed out on a San Francisco street, empty wine box to her side.
*October 29—Nancy Pelosi is found passed out on a San Francisco street, empty Haagen Dazs containers and vodka bottles to her side.
*November 18—It is revealed that CNN became the first cable news network ever to have a negative ratings share for any week. Lifesitenews brands the network’s Nov. 9- Nov. 15 performance “a miracle.”
*November 20—Congressional Democrats propose a bill that would require the payment of reparations to Blacks and mandate that the U.S. return the southwestern states to Mexico, the middle of the country to France, and the Eastern seaboard to England. An amendment to the bill calls for all English-speaking folks to subsequently return to England, effectively returning the erstwhile United States to the Indigenous Peoples.
*December 10—A lone federal district court judge’s ruling declares that President Trump must only wear boxers, never briefs.
*December 31—Yes, CNN’s Anderson Cooper does accidentally vomit on air after guzzling a glass filled with a mix of Wild Turkey and Clorox Bleach– and taking several prolonged bong hits to celebrate the New Year.

A sneak peek at 2026:
*January 9—Al Gore says that, unless all human activity on planet Earth immediately ceases, the planet will spontaneously combust by the end of the year.
*January 27—The U.S. observes the 10-year anniversary of Al Gore stating that, unless the Earth took “drastic measures,” it would reach the “point of no return” in 10 years.
January 29—A lone federal district court judge invalidates the 2024 presidential election, finding that “the American people are incapable of voting in a way that furthers and supports our precious democracy.” He rules that Kamala Harris be immediately installed as president and Tim Walz as vice-president. He adds, “There are no kings in this country. I have spoken!”

China Issues Warning to Iran After Threats to Close the Strait of Hormuz
https://gellerreport.com/2025/06/china-threatens-iran-to-close-the-strait-of-hormuz.html/
The mullahs are on a suicide mission…Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz is attacking it’s most powerful ally…A majority of China’s oil goes through the Straits of Hormuz, the US a tiny portion. This will not affect us. China would be the main loser…Not to mention it would cripple Iran’s economy…No one hates Iran more than the Mullah terrorist regime.

Biden Judge Defies SCOTUS Ruling, Goes Rogue in Order to Stop Trump
https://www.westernjournal.com/alert-biden-judge-defies-scotus-ruling-goes-rogue-order-stop-trump/
Remember how President Donald Trump’s administration was supposed to listen to judges when they issued injunctions, even if said judge didn’t have jurisdiction over the entire nation?… There is one court that has jurisdiction over the entire nation — the Supreme Court, for all you dullards out there who don’t get the point — and it handed down a ruling in a controversial case. A judge appointed by President Joe Biden is deciding he can ignore that ruling…Six months into the job, Massachusetts U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy, is now openly defying a Supreme Court order;is basically running interference for murderers, drug traffickers, and other (actual) deplorables, and why? Ostensibly because they might be afraid of the countries they’re being deported to, but realistically because it scores a political point. The Democrats don’t have legitimate control over anything right now except for the judges they’ve managed to appoint to various positions over the years. The problem is that these people keep reminding America of why they didn’t give control of any of the two elected branches of government to the Democratic Party.

A little-known provision in the Senate’s new reconciliation bill isn’t just about selling public land – it’s about stripping local communities of control. The provision bans states and counties from regulating “AI Systems” for a full decade, opening the door to opaque development far beyond housing. From data centers to deed-restricted zones, this bill rewrites who gets a say in the future of American land…a technocrat’s wet dream when it comes to the infrastructure needed to fuel AI empires…

Got Beef? 12-Year Cycle Signals “Cyclical Low”
https://www.zerohedge.com/food/got-beef-12-year-cycle-signals-cyclical-low
The U.S. beef industry operates on 12-year herd cycles, with the last herd low in 2014 and the beef packer margin trough in 2015. The current herd liquidation began in 2019, and as of the start of 2025, the nation’s cattle herd stands at 86.7 million, the lowest level since the 1950s…Herd rebuilding trends may begin soon, according to Goldman analysts, who cited support from high calf prices and low feed costs, though herds appear tight for the foreseeable future. They expect this dynamic to keep beef packer margins depressed due to reduced slaughter volumes and elevated live cattle prices.

Vindication For The Unvaccinated?
https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/vindication-unvaccinated
I was the only person at the table who hadn’t had any form of flu for many years, while all of the guests had been ill to one degree or another. Almost everyone had tested positive for Covid at least once over the last few years with accompanying flu symptoms. Although no one in my family was hospitalized or died during the so-called pandemic; they all had been vaccinated repeatedly. As far as I know, my wife and I were the only ones in our families who didn’t get any Covid shot, and I haven’t been inoculated for anything in the last seventy years….Before the Covid fiasco, my alternative approach to illness had been respected…As the specter of a pandemic arose, my opinion about vaccination became dangerous and irrelevant…It wasn’t complicated. Using genetic-based technology in developing a new drug that attempted to manipulate the magnificent complexity of the human immune system was at a minimum, a gamble…This atmosphere, developed and enforced in a haze of authoritarian dictates, created an unprecedented climate of hostility that infected all relationships. Because of my views and unvaccinated status, I rapidly became a pariah to my family…The venom exuded in response to my unwillingness to join in the mass delusion supporting vaccination was palpable. My crime was unforgivable…they had participated in scapegoating the unvaccinated…No matter how much information about the abuses of powerful forces during the pandemic, no matter how much data supports the dangers of the Covid response, no matter how much is learned about the deviant behavior of leadership and government agencies, the unvaccinated have yet to be vindicated. Self-serving, unconscious attitudes continue to dominate, confirming human nature has not evolved since the plagues of the Dark Ages. In times of difficulty and stress, it remains more convenient and simpler to find others at fault, rather than perceive our failures.

America’s Choice: National Divorce or Civil War
https://texianpartisan.com/analysis/opinion-and-editorial/americas-choice-national-divorce-or-civil-war/
…The Elites, hailing from both Left and Right within the political kaleidoscope, are the big players in the midst of all of this. They are working to ensure the volatility will continue to grow until it reaches a breaking point. The resulting chaos, they believe, will give them the opportunity they desire to usher in their new system of all-out control over the “unwashed masses” as they so disdainfully refer to the common everyday civilian working hard just to survive…National Divorce is the option with the least number of dangers to the freedoms and principles that are America’s true foundation. Withdrawing from the manipulated and corrupted government structures, which now advance the Globalist project, would allow defensive consolidation for the preservation of these values. While this would not guarantee avoidance of war, as the Elites would likely seek to use every tool at their disposal to bring those seceding back under their control, the conflict would be changed into one of self-defense as opposed to maneuvering for power.

Nap Time And Ping Pong: Inside Gen Z’s Batsht Crazy Expectations For A Workplace
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/nap-time-and-ping-pong-inside-gen-zs-batsht-crazy-expectations-workplace
According to a new Resume.io survey, nearly one in six Americans under 28 won’t even look at a job unless it comes with a designated nap zone…“It’s clear Gen-Z isn’t shy about voicing what they want from today’s workplace,”…what it does include is snoozing on the clock, playing ping pong, and hanging out with dogs…one in five Gen-Zers insists on having a “fun room” with games. The same number flat-out refuse to work anywhere that isn’t pet-friendly…A third of Gen-Z expects free snacks and lunch like it’s a constitutional right. Even then, many would prefer not to come in at all. A full third say a four-day workweek is non-negotiable, and one in four wants extended sabbaticals — for “personal development” or, let’s be real, globe-trotting…For the record, despite all the fun-and-games chatter, the top workplace perk across all ages remains good old-fashioned paid overtime — with 76% calling it a must-have.

Pam Bondi’s Calm Jab Causes Purple-Haired Dem Rep to Completely Lose It During Hearing
https://www.westernjournal.com/watch-pam-bondis-calm-jab-causes-purple-haired-dem-rep-completely-lose-hearing/
Congressional Democrats excel at defending the indefensible while behaving like spoiled children…During a House Appropriations Committee Hearing on Monday, Democratic Rep. Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut — she of the purple mane — put all of those repellent qualities on display when she posed a question to Attorney General Pam Bondi, rudely interrupted Bondi’s sensible answer, then, in a moment of comical projection, flew off the handle while accusing the attorney general of filibustering…the congresswoman wanted to know why Bondi’s proposed budget included cuts to the ATF…Bondi calmly delivered an answer that every freedom-loving conservative will cheer. “First, what we’re doing,” the attorney general said, “is ATF is going to be brought over with [Drug Enforcement Administration]. Everyone knows — everyone sitting up here — guns and drugs go together. They go together. We’re going to make it more efficient.”…What the attorney general said next, however, sounded even more like music to a conservative’s ears. In fact, DeLauro hated it so much that she tried to interrupt. “What I will tell you will not be happening,” Bondi continued, “is ATF agents will not be knocking on the doors of legal gun owners in the middle of the night asking them about their guns. They’re going to be out on the streets – DeLauro, of course, did not want Bondi to finish. After all, Democrats have no interest in the rights of law-abiding gun owners. short, DeLauro only wanted to know how many government agents’ jobs Bondi would protect. To that end, the congresswoman went on a nearly one-minute rant about ATF and DEA budget cuts…“As I was attempting to answer your question very calmly unlike you,” her childish reaction to Bondi raises questions about why so many Democrats, particularly Democratic women in Congress, cannot seem to control their emotional outbursts, which make them look both unhinged and entitled….Bondi’s initial answer began around the 1:10 mark.

Texas Strikes Gold as Abbott Signs Historic Bill Making Precious Metals Legal Tender
https://texianpartisan.com/news/texasnews/texas-strikes-gold-as-abbott-signs-historic-bill-making-precious-metals-legal-tender/
Governor’s signature on HB 1056 positions Texas as leader in monetary independence from federal system. Governor Greg Abbott signed House Bill 1056 into law late on June 22nd, making Texas the first state in the Union to establish a practical, electronic payment system backed by gold and silver. The landmark legislation recognizes precious metals as legal tender and creates a revolutionary transactional currency system that could fundamentally change how Texans conduct everyday business. The depository already serves as a crucial component of Texas’s economic independence strategy, allowing Texas to repatriate gold holdings from out-of-state storage facilities and maintain direct control over the state’s precious metals assets. The banking industry’s opposition reveals the threat that sound money poses to the current system of fiat currency and fractional reserve banking. When Texas provides its citizens with alternatives to Federal Reserve notes, it undermines the foundation of federal monetary control. Texas has once again proven that we will not wait for Washington to protect our interests. We will forge our own path, build our own systems, and secure our own future. HB 1056 is now the law in Texas, and the age of constitutional money is about to begin.

Let’s assume Trump got this agreement from both parties. This came about a few hours after Iran put on a staged light show over Qatar, which clearly intended to give Khamenei a face-saving exit from an existential threat from Trump and the US military. It came less than two days after the US destroyed at least part of Iran’s nuclear-weapons development program. And it came an hour after Khamenei tweeted boldly about his courage from the safety of the bunker he apparently hasn’t left in twelve days:

Political Violence Surges Because Politics Matter Too Much
https://reason.com/2025/06/23/political-violence-surges-because-politics-matters-too-much/
We’ve made government so powerful that people will fight rather than surrender control to the enemy…As should be obvious to anybody following news about riots, assassinations, and arson attacks, politics have become far too important in America. With government large, growing, and reaching into every nook and cranny of our lives, Americans perceive politics as too much of a high-stakes game to lose. And so, they have divided into hostile camps to make sure their side comes out on top—and some turn ideological conflict into literal war.

Is This Why the Left Is Throwing a Tantrum Over Trump’s Air Strikes Against Iran?

The reaction was predictable—the copy was laughable. After President Donald Trump launched precision air strikes against numerous Iranian nuclear facilities over the weekend, a shambolic, Trump-deranged, brain-rotted Democratic Party trashed the president for engaging in another endless war with this illegal military action. They can’t think of anything that doesn’t make them look like idiots.Remove Trump, I’d say there would be healthy supermajorities in both chambers supporting these strikes. That’s what’s a bit humorous here. Based on some of the statements, Barack Obama would’ve been impeached by his own party for the raid that killed Osama bin Laden and his air campaign against Gaddafi in Libya.

The Democratic Party is going through it right now: they all agree that Iran cannot have nuclear weapons, but they also don’t want to do anything to stop them from accomplishing that feat. Tehran cannot have nukes, but we cannot bomb them because of x, y, and z—all the reasons they’ve given are idiotic. When you boil everything down, it’s because Trump is president. What else is new?…Top Democrats on Capitol Hill say they weren’t briefed in advance of the U.S. attack on Iran on Saturday…There’s a simple reason for that move: Democrats would’ve leaked it. Meanwhile, the Pentagon, which I was told was in total disarray under Pete Hegseth, kept this mission under wraps for all the right reasons. Democrats can’t be trusted. Their opinions on public policy and their supporters are all to the detriment of the country’s health. They cannot and shall not be privy to operations of this nature.

This is the predictable, impotent lashing out of a cornered regime, coming just days after the United States methodically dismantled Iran’s illicit nuclear infrastructure. The ayatollahs were given a clear choice between peace and annihilation, and it seems they have foolishly chosen the latter. For years, they grew accustomed to the weak-kneed appeasement of the Obama administration, which showered them with pallets of cash in the dead of night, and then, of course, that appeasement continued under the Biden administration.

These provisions violated the Byrd Rule, which is a part of the budget reconciliation process that restricts how many “extraneous” matters can be included in such legislation… Democrats are hailing the parliamentarian’s decisions…“There is no better way to define this Big Beautiful Betrayal of a bill than families lose, and billionaires win.

The Texas Democrat posted a nearly 22-minute meltdown on the social media platform Sunday, attacking the president because he hadn’t “hollered” about his intentions before ordering the bombing of Iranian nuclear sites. Her message, recorded while she was driving in a car, claimed “the Mofo [motherfker] that resides in the White House” had “unilaterally… declared war” against Iran.

NSSF Debunks Anti-Suppressor Lies

Sen. Chris Murphy
Among the loudest voices is Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), who posted to X, “A hidden provision of the bill…wait for it…legalizes gun silencers!! What?? So now criminals will be able to hide their crimes and police will lose the ability to respond to mass shootings. WTF.” He followed that up by also posting a speech, saying “silencers” will allow murderers to commit crimes in secret, claiming the firearm report would be completely silenced, “Silencers are the tools of killers, they are the tools of criminals, period, stop.”…Sen. Mark Kelly, who tried to claim that suppressors would render technology like ShotSpotter useless. The fact that ShotSpotter itself claims it can detect suppressed gunfire debunks that nonsense.
That’s a lie.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) couldn’t help himself. “Who wants a silencer? Not the average citizen,”…“They’re law-abiding. Not our police officers. They’re against these provisions that allow anyone to get a silencer. The only people who want silencers are criminals because they don’t want people to hear their bad, horrible, deadly deeds.”…I don’t want one because I’m planning on killing anyone. I want one because, God forbid, I ever have to defend my home against invasion. I’d much rather deal with just the psychological trauma of taking a life without everyone in my house having to also deal with the physical trauma of having their hearing damaged. I want to see people have them readily available to reduce the noise at gun ranges, so we stop seeing these battles from neighbors trying to force them out due to noise. And I’m sick of people slinging lies to try and justify preventing any of that from happening.

When the Streets Don’t ‘Run Red With Blood’
https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2025/06/23/when-the-streets-dont-run-red-with-blood-n1229025
I remember hearing anti-gunners make claims about how “the streets will run red with blood” should some pro-gun measure pass. That was a literal quote at the time, and it stuck with me over the years. While the exact wording changes from time to time, the sentiment remains. Gun control advocates routinely claim that without some law, violence will take hold and we’ll have blood everywhere…Gun control doesn’t work, and the studies that claim it does can all be debunked pretty easily. They’re not even clever about it because the biased media won’t poke at them too much. They’ll just repeat what the claim is without any critical thinking.

Your rank and file ATF agent isn’t the one walking into your local gun store to see if they’re complying with the rules for FFLs. That’s the job of a team of inspectors who have no actual arrest powers. They’re different entities entirely…The downsizing also saves taxpayers an estimated $82 million specifically from reductions in regulatory inspections, and $354 million overall from staffing cuts that include both IOIs and other support personnel.Of course, this spurred some outrage…GIFFORDS @GIFFORDS_org – Once again, the Trump admin is putting our safety at risk to enrich gun CEOs. Gutting inspections helps no one but rogue gun dealers and those who seek to do us harm. It puts all of our families at risk…This is nothing more than them trying to latch onto class warfare rhetoric to push their agenda, not realizing that no one who doesn’t already agree with them will be moved by this nonsense.

English Required for Citizenship – But Not at the Polls
https://amac.us/newsline/elections/english-required-for-citizenship-but-not-at-the-polls/
For all the debate in recent years about how mass unchecked illegal immigration threatens election integrity, there’s one glaring apparent contradiction in American law that almost no one is talking about – and it might be enabling noncitizens to vote. To become a U.S. citizen – and therefore gain the right to vote in federal elections – noncitizens must pass a naturalization test that measures both English language proficiency and knowledge of U.S. history and government. English proficiency is determined by the ability to “read, write, speak, and understand English,” with applicants required to read one sentence, write one sentence, and respond meaningfully to questions in English…that requirement is in apparent conflict with Section 203 of the Voting Rights Act, which mandates translated voting materials—ballots, instructions, and notices—in counties where a significant number of voting-age citizens belong to a single language minority group and have limited English proficiency…The Voting Rights Act, originally passed in 1965 and amended over the years, was critical in ending racial discrimination at the polls and expanding access to the ballot box. But with illegal immigration now a national crisis, there’s legitimate reason for concern that progressive activists and politicians are exploiting Section 203 to enable noncitizen voting – especially in left-leaning states and cities with lax enforcement of election laws to begin with…The Founders envisioned a republic where free citizens deliberated in a shared public language. As debates over immigration and national identity grow more divisive, preserving English as the common civic language is more important than ever. If English is necessary to gain citizenship, it should be necessary at the ballot box too.

The video, which went viral after being reposted by antifa-chronicler Andy Ngo, began with some long-haired dude yelling at police on bikes to “de-escalate” and asking them if they knew what that meant, claiming that they punched his girlfriend. (What appears to be his girlfriend, for what it’s worth, didn’t seem too upset and seemed to want the guy to de-escalate.). “Yeah, y’all real tough,” one protester can be heard saying before the camera panned through the crowd — with its assemblage of various lefty archetypes holding Mexican or upside-down American flags — to the front line at the intersection. At this point, through incoherent shouting, a group of people tried to break through the line. After a scuffle, which saw several people clearly menacing police, the protesters were hit with pepper spray, with one of the them getting the worst of it.

Texas took “decisive action” in favor of property owners last month when legislation known as the “Squatters Bill” was passed, offering protection against bad-faith tenants and serial squatters. Predictably, Democrats opposed the bill using a familiar argument seen from the party when it comes to deporting illegal immigrants, claiming due process was “being stripped” from squatters…“Texas ranks #2 in the nation for squatting, that is a crisis,” Bettencourt said. “Property owners are facing financial devastation and dangerous confrontations, from a $6,000 dental bill after a squatter dropped a refrigerator on a woman, to over $130,000 in legal fees just to evict unlawful occupants. That ends now, as this is a focused anti-squatters bill.”

https://bearingarms.com/camedwards/2025/06/20/ninth-circuit-declares-california-gun-rationing-law-unconstitutional-n1229018
A three-judge panel on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld a district court ruling declaring California’s “1-in-30” gun rationing law an unconstitutional infringement on the right to keep and bear arms. Judge Danielle Jo Forrest, an appointee of Donald Trump, authored the unanimous opinion holding the California law is “facially unconstitutional because the plain text of the Second Amendment protects the possession of multiple firearms and protects against meaningful constraints on the acquisition of firearms through purchase.” That last bit is particularly interesting, because it calls into question other California gun laws, including attempts by municipalities and counties to zone gun stores out of existence, as well as the state’s prohibition on gun shows on state property.

President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that American bombers had struck three separate nuclear facilities, including the underground enrichment facility in Fordow, which had become the biggest point of contention since strikes began…While the president didn’t confirm it, the bombings were likely done by B-2 bombers that had been positioned in Guam just hours earlier. It’s assumed that they used 30,000-pound GBU-57 bunker busters to penetrate deep into the ground and end Iran’s nuclear threat. Even if the Mullahs survive, it will now take decades for them to rebuild, given the damage that was done…. Trump deserves a lot of credit for standing by his red line and taking action here, something his predecessors refused to do. This also sends a message to America’s enemies outside of Iran that we are not to be trifled with.

…we’ve got a “li’l friend” stashed in the hangar—a 30,000-pound Bunker Buster bomb that can punch a hole straight through the gates of hell. And oh, by the way: only we have it. Only we can fly it. And only one man on planet Earth has the brass to use it properly…I’m talking about President Donald J. Trump—the only man with the judgment, strength, and clarity to end Iran’s nuclear program without ever setting foot on Iranian soil…Trump—being Trump—won’t go trigger-happy. He never does. He’s not a neocon looking for regime change or a warmonger needing to prove anything. Trump’s doctrine is simple: no boots, no nation-building, no apologies.

U.S. Ramps Up Surveillance Amid Fears Of Iran-Backed Sleeper Cells
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-ramps-surveillance-amid-fears-iran-backed-sleeper-cells
…Homeland, concerns are flourishing over the possible activation of Iran-backed operatives…law enforcement officials have stepped up surveillance of Iran-backed operatives in the United States…Late last year, federal prosecutors charged an operative of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and two U.S.-based people with plotting to surveil and assassinate critics of the Iranian regime. The IRGC operative allegedly told investigators he was pushed by unnamed IRGC officials to plan an attack against Mr. Trump…former CIA targeting officer Sarah Adams “Well, Al-Qaeda says they trained and deployed a thousand for this attack. First off, I think there are more than a thousand Al-Qaeda members in the United States, but for the Homeland Attack, that number is based on what Al-Qaeda is saying, so they could exaggerate it; however, they did have about 1,400 in the Hamas Attack so the number is not off from what they did in the first round of attacks.”…The overlap between the Israel-Iran conflict and an elevated U.S. counter-terrorism posture signals a rising domestic threat environment should President Trump decide on direct military action. Open southern borders over the past four years via the globalists in the Biden-Harris regime have markedly increased uncertainty about the number of IRGC- or Hezbollah-linked operatives inside the country. In the event of a U.S. strike on Iran, these terror networks could conduct retaliatory attacks against high-visibility or soft targets.

An unwanted post, very probable sponsored under the table, came across my timeline…My faint recollection was something related to the French Revolution and I had to go online to refresh my memory. Britannica removed my memory rust…Jacobin Club, the most famous political group of the French Revolution, which became identified with extreme egalitarianism and violence and which led the Revolutionary government from mid-1793 to mid-1794.,,There is no way in this modern day of fast access to information that this group chose its name by random accident because it sounded cool. And maybe it is cool to them the idea of parading perceived enemies to their gruesome deaths in a public location since they figure the bloodshed will only run one way: theirs. This is no longer an era where people ignore history, but are embracing with fervor the worst parts of it.

Now We Know Why the Minnesota Assassin Story Disappeared Overnight
https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2025/06/20/now-we-know-why-the-minnesota-assassin-story-disappeared-overnight-n4941019
Have you wondered why the story of the Minnesota assassin Vance Boelter has suddenly vanished from the news? Now we have a pretty good idea why…Initial media coverage was rife with speculation, with left-leaning outlets eager to cast Boelter as a MAGA Republican, hastily blaming the GOP and even President Donald Trump for inciting his shooting spree…Yet the letter found in Boelter’s abandoned vehicle tells a radically different story, one that not only exposes the media’s rush to judgment and political opportunism but sudden drop in coverage….According to the Star-Tribune, Boelter believed he was acting under the supposed orders of Democrat Gov. Tim Walz. Boelter’s incoherent letter, about a page and a half long, bizarrely claimed that killing Sen. Amy Klobuchar was necessary to clear the way for Walz to run for the U.S. Senate…In short, Boelter is just a wacko.

Supreme Court Allows Victims of Terrorist Attacks Overseas to Sue in US Courts​
https://www.ldsavow.com/forum/threads/supreme-court-allows-victims-of-terrorist-attacks-overseas-to-sue-in-us-courts.311226/
The U.S. Supreme Court on June 20 unanimously upheld a law that empowers Americans harmed by terrorist attacks abroad to sue in U.S. courts. The majority opinion in the 9–0 decision was written by Chief Justice Roberts…The legal issue is whether the extraterritoriality provisions of the federal Promoting Security and Justice for Victims of Terrorism (PSJVTA) Act are consistent with the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, according to the petition filed on July 3, 2024…the PSJVTA amended the federal Anti-Terrorism Act, which had created a right for victims of terror attacks committed against Americans outside the United States to sue in U.S. courts. The Anti-Terrorism Act was inspired by a lawsuit brought against the PLO for the 1985 killing of wheelchair-bound American cruise ship passenger Leon Klinghoffer “who was shot in the face and thrown into the sea by PLO hijackers”

Trump Bombed Iran, So We May Soon Know How Many Terrorist Sleeper Cells Came into America Under Biden

…The grimmer toll could easily come right here at home, thanks to the Open Border policies of the Biden administration that literally allowed pretty much anybody to cross into this country. But don’t expect the mainstream media to provide honest reporting about the severity of this threat… it was Biden’s policies that made it easy for the Iranian terrorist planners and strategists to move terrorist sleeper cells across our border with Mexico. To grasp this reality, here’s what the House Homeland Security Committee reported in Oct. 2024…………..Nobody knows with certainty, of course, precisely how many radical Islamic Revolutionary Guards terrorist sleeper cells there currently are in this country, awaiting orders to launch devastating attacks across the country. Just imagine suicide bombers assaulting the U.S. Capitol, or detonating themselves in crowded public places, or unleashing random shooting on a crowded street in New York, Chicago, Denver, LA, etc.  And it’s not just Iran. There is no reason to assume that other extremist Muslim groups don’t also have sleeper cells here. The ISIS threat has revived in recent years, and let’s not forget that at least 20,000 young Chinese males are known to have crossed into the country during the Biden era. China is our most dangerous adversary, and one of Iran’s most significant allies.

‘There Will Be Peace Or… Tragedy for Iran’: Trump Addresses the Nation on US Bombing of Iran
https://www.westernjournal.com/will-peace-tragedy-iran-trump-addresses-nation-us-bombing-iran/
Just hours after announcing that American bombers had struck three Iranian nuclear facilities, President Donald Trump spoke from the White House late Saturday night, saying Iran needed to choose between “peace” or “tragedy” in the days and weeks to come…“Our objective was the destruction of Iran’s nuclear enrichment capacity and a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the world’s number one state sponsor of terror,” Trump said during his address from the White House. “Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success. Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated.” “Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace,” the president continued. “If they do not, future attacks will be far greater — and a lot easier.” Trump went on to note that “for 40 years, Iran has been saying ‘Death to America’ … They have been killing our people.” “I decided a long time ago that I would not let this happen. It will not continue,”

Trump’s Audacious Deception, Tight OpSec, Shocking Stealth in Lead-Up to Hit on Iran’s Nuke Sites

The first word anyone heard of American B-2 bomber strikes on Iranian nuclear sites was by President Donald Trump…There was nary a leak. There was no chest beating from Congress. No reports of “we hear that…” The operational security leading to this strike on a Saturday appears to have been flawless…While all the pieces on the chess board were being moved—doomsday planes, B-2, carrier strike groups—the Trump Administration deployed multiple feints to lull the mullahs into thinking they had a little time to get out of this dilemma. Trump told the Iranian leadership, or what remains of it after Israel’s tactical strikes on their penthouses, that he’d give them up to two weeks to give up their nuclear enrichment program…the U.S. Air Force bombers used six 30,000-pound Massive Ordnance Penetrators — bunker busters — on the Fordow nuclear site…The other two Iranian nuclear sites at Natanz and Isfahan, softened up by Israeli bombs, were struck by U.S. Navy submarines in the region using a reported 30 Tomahawk missiles. The World War II generation was told that “loose lips sink ships.” Trump made sure that this generation of war fighters kept everything on closer-than-close hold.

Trump’s Decision to Bomb Iran Exposes the Failures of Previous U.S. Leadership at Highest Level

Following the Iranian revolution that created the present regime in 1979, Iran found itself in possession of much of the infrastructure that formed the basis of its nuclear weapons program. In 1974, the Shah announced his intention to “produce roughly 23,000 megawatts of electrical power from a series of nuclear power stations within 20 years,”…The Germans built two reactors at Bushehr, and the French supplied two additional, smaller reactors. By 1979, Iran had invested $1 billion in an enrichment plant and had begun to master the nuclear fuel cycle of enriching uranium into a usable fuel for reactors…By the early 1990s, Russia and China (with North Korean technicians) were accelerating Iran’s bomb development. Everything was going well for Iran and it was on track to possess a nuclear weapon sometime in the early 2000s…While the CIA was telling presidents that the Iranians had stopped trying to build a bomb in 2003 after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, work continued on a bomb until the window to prevent Iran from building a nuclear weapon closed. Trump’s decision to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities was more than 40 years in the making and represents a generational failure of leadership of historic proportions. Each president in turn—beginning with George H. W. Bush, through Clinton, George W. Bush, Obama, the first Trump administration, and Joe Biden—acknowledged the Iranian threat of a nuclear weapon but refused to act on it. Trump correctly interpreted Iran’s intentions during his first term. Whether he would have gone after Iran’s nuclear program in a second term will never be known. The fact that he’s finishing a job that Joe Biden should have done is an indication that Trump had no illusions about Iran’s capability or intent to build a nuclear bomb. Apologists for previous presidents will point out that the Iranian threat was not an “existential” one at the time. They were kicking the can down the road, hoping a successor would do what they were unwilling to do.

The New York Times sounded the alarm over the ICE raids being conducted by President Donald Trump’s administration, claiming Democrats are panicking over losing “noncitizens” from the count.
“Now there is growing alarm over the Trump administration’s immigration raids and over a renewed push by Republican lawmakers to require the census to ask respondents whether they are U.S. citizens and to exclude noncitizens from counts used to apportion congressional seats,”…“More than 4.5 million migrants live in New York State, about 23.1 percent of its total population, according to a breakdown of 2023 census data from the Migration Policy Institute, a nonpartisan think tank. Of those 4.5 million, about 1.8 million are noncitizens.”

Nobody wins if we go to war.”…but one dedicated individual willing to sacrifice himself others win is one thing (Kamikaze), but when you have a full culture and government who not only don’t care if their people die, but mass death of other countries and themselves are treated as divine mandates and due full obedience, then the game of who has nukes changes drastically…Is anybody with some amount of rationally brain is willing to bet that Iran will not use nukes once they make them? And especially if the USA is perceived as weak and decadent? Israel will be a nuclear wasteland (Gaza included for those Pro Palestinians about to applaud) and probably one or more of the big cities in CONUS. Moscow and/or Saint Petersburg may also get repaved nuclear flat in “payback” for the Chechens. And then, the Middle East will glow in the dark for a very long time once both countries reply in kind twice over. “But we are not a war with Iran!” Bullcrap. We have been in a low-intensity conflict with the assholes since 1979 and playing their game ever since.

Ilhan Omar Hates America, But There’s a Reason Why She Stays Here

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishu) is deeply disappointed in her adopted country, and of course, it is all the fault of none other than Donald J. Trump. While virtually all leftists hate Trump with hysterical, lunatic intensity, Omar goes them all one better, and she is in the process of transforming Trump-hatred into a veritable new art form…Omar has gone all the other Trump-haters one better by claiming that Orange Man Bad is not just a new Hitler who is destroying “our democracy” (the term leftists like to use to refer to their own hegemony), but that he is destroying the country itself, and reducing it to the level of a third-world hellhole…It was Omar’s friends and colleagues, her fellow leftist apparatchiks, who did far more to reduce the U.S. to third-world status than Trump ever did…So she loves Somalia and longs to live there. She thinks America, meanwhile, is among “the worst of countries.” Yet despite her expressed hope in the 2022 video, she is likely to remain in the country she hates. After all, there is so much more work to do in order to ensure its destruction.

Within minutes of Saturday night’s successful U.S. strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities, the jihad wing of the U.S. Democrat Party threw a public wing ding, threatened to impeach the president, and one of them was given a star turn on Tehran TV…Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishu) issued a statement claiming that the strikes “mark a dangerous and reckless escalation of an already volatile conflict in the Middle East.” She added, “Military strikes will not bring peace. They will only provoke more violence, destabilize the region, and endanger U.S. troops and civilians.” Furthermore, she claimed that no effort at diplomacy had been taken, saying, “We’ve seen what happens when diplomacy is sidelined in favor of bombs.” She apparently doesn’t remember that the mullahs left the negotiating table in Europe…The mission was flawlessly carried off because nobody leaked the details, whispered to a reporter, or dropped a dime to a mullah. But Omar was joined by Michigan’s Rashida Tlaib (D-Gaza), who demanded to know why they were not told the details of the mission and allowed to give their consent.
We’re sure the lawfare crowd will try to tie up Trump in the courts over this issue. The Authorized Use of Military Force doesn’t include Iran, according to Just Security, but there is room under the Constitution in which the president may use force “to protect an important national interest.”

…“A purity spiral occurs,” he wrote, “when a community becomes fixated on implementing a single value that has no upper limit, and no single agreed interpretation. The result is a moral feeding frenzy.”…Mao’s cultural revolution provides another classic example. In the late 1960s, the Red Guards took to the street to identify and destroy anyone and anything involved with traditional Chinese culture. The result was an industrial-scale orgy of murder and destruction… The woke shift their language all the time, so that words that were one day fine are now utterly reprehensible. You can’t keep up — which is the point. … The result is an exercise of cultural power through linguistic distortion…Courage has been in notably short supply in Western countries in recent years as people have allowed petty bureaucrats to turn them into sheep who parrot absurd ideas about sexuality, litter their business cards and correspondence with meaningless phonemes they call “pronouns,” and obediently quiver in place and refuse to be seen out-of-doors without a mask. What we need is a short course in George Orwell, who knew that the surest first step in battling tyranny is having the courage to call things by their real names.

Dems seethe as facade of autopen presidency comes crashing down
https://www.theblaze.com/news/overight-project-over-target-dems-seethe-as-facade-of-autopen-presidency-comes-crashing-down
Democratic lawmakers walked out of a Senate hearing Wednesday on former President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline, its cover-up, and its alleged exploitation behind the scenes. The Republican lawmakers who remained at their posts were rewarded with troubling insights into the fallout of both the cover-up and America’s apparent governance in recent years by an unelected cabal of ideologues….”The president takes positive actions and authenticates those actions through his signature. His signature is required for the most significant actions he may undertake: to sign an executive order, to take any action vested in him by the Constitution, as in granting a pardon, and to take the most important action of all: to sign a bill into law,” said Wold. “In all these cases, the president’s signature is itself the protection of democratic principles. When the president signs, he communicates his assent and endorsement of the action he takes.”…”In June 2022, the Biden White House began deploying the autopen to sign clemency warrants, and executive orders in July of 2022. Autopen use skyrocketed from there,” said Wold. “We found that of the 51 clemency warrants issued during the Biden presidency, over half — 32 in total — were signed with an autopen.”…Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) cut deeper, asking Wold whether legislation that passed both chambers of Congress but then was signed by a presidential staffer without the president’s authorization is law. “No,” said Wold…Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.) — who concluded Biden’s was the “autopen presidency, a government run by committee rather than a leader chosen by the American people” — indicated that he will be “pursuing a Special Access Request to obtain Biden’s staff secretary’s autopen memo and records tracking Biden’s authorization of several autopenned documents.”…Wold told Blaze News, “Those who received autopen pardons should be charged for the crimes they were pardoned for. Those who operated the autopen without the direction of the president should be charged with potential crimes ranging from impersonation of an official to forgery.”

Vance joined the left-leaning platform Wednesday and focused on the big news of the day: namely, the fact that the Supreme Court had delivered a 6-3 vote in favor of states which banned transgender procedures for minors…“Hello Bluesky, I’ve been told this app has become the place to go for common sense political discussion and analysis,” he wrote in his first post. “So I’m thrilled to be here to engage with all of you.”…The New York Post noted that Vance’s “ban was brief, as the vice president’s account was reinstated just minutes later.” However, it’s telling that the sitting vice president of the United States, simply by pointing out what the law of the land was — and not in contravention of any of the platform’s guidelines — managed to get himself banned from the platform in less time than it takes most people to make pasta. And not just that, he was banned over bringing reality into the equation…when someone from the other side politely shows up to share reality with the dwindling liberal anger-party, they apparently stop smashing each other for a second and begin smashing the vice president, completely unaware that this is why they keep losing.

Let’s ‘Follow the Science’ on Suppressors
https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2025/06/18/lets-follow-the-science-on-suppressors-n1228982
Reason’s J.D. Tuccille included some of that in a recent piece about suppressors.(https://reason.com/2025/06/18/gun-owners-deserve-freedom-to-enjoy-the-sound-of-silencers/) But even after decades of continuing technological development, suppressors still don’t deliver the silent mobland rub-outs that Hollywood fantasized then and truth-impaired politicians still scaremonger about…Perhaps more importantly, though, if it doesn’t make a gun whisper quiet, then why are we restricting them in the first place? The whole argument about them is that they’re super scary because no one will hear anything until someone is dead, but that’s simply not true outside of a Hollywood film set. Banning them was dumb. Continuing to ban them is even dumber.

America’s Choice: National Divorce or Civil War
https://keepgovlocal.substack.com/p/americas-choice-national-divorce
…The Elites, hailing from both Left and Right within the political kaleidoscope, are the big players in the midst of all of this. They are working to ensure the volatility will continue to grow until it reaches a breaking point… a new series of attacks, designed to provoke conflict and distrust inside America at higher levels than those seen during the COVID hysteria. The first stage would involve weaponizing the law itself against large segments of the population, mostly against the general populace with some more well-known names thrown in for the purpose of publicizing the misuse of the law…the second stage could be slowly introduced. With the people already angry and frustrated by seeing their very governing structures being used against them when they had done nothing wrong, strong desires for vengeance against those who had persecuted them would inevitably begin to arise. The people who then be more inclined to disregard the very checks and balances which should have protected them in the first place. This, in turn, would make the rights guaranteed the people under the Bill of Rights, in effect, a dead letter…third stage in the Elites’ plan is now being put into action. Political fervor is being whipped up into a power-hungry frenzy on all sides of the political divide. With the MAGA movement being constantly labeled as a “clear and present danger” by it’s opponents, and a similar mentality unfolding within the MAGA movement against their own adversaries, a dangerous brew is being stirred domestically…the last and most important stage in the plan to destroy America’s founding principles can be unleashed: The State of Emergency known as “War”…National Divorce is the option with the least number of dangers to the freedoms and principles which are America’s true foundation. Withdrawing from the manipulated and corrupted government structures which now advance the Globalist project would allow defensive consolidation for preservation of these values. While this would not guarantee avoidance of war, as the Elites would likely seek to use every tool at their disposal to bring those seceding back under their control, the conflict would be changed into one of self-defense as opposed to maneuvering for power. As multiple self-defense, grassroots-oriented conflicts have shown through the centuries, sheer military power is not a guarantee of victory in war. Today, ever increasing masses of people now have a basic knowledge of the reality of the Globalist conspiracies, thanks to the awakening brought about by COVID, as well as ever increasing public proclamations of increasingly crazy agendas. This makes for far longer odds of the Elites being able to break an opposition alliance rooted in self-defense. The added advantage of not opening up a political void for other nefarious actors to potentially seize substantial power, makes this an even more appealing approach. The route to rebuild the world based on America’s founding principles would be a much smoother one. Good elements of the old order could be oriented to correct the abuses which manifested themselves over the 250 year life of the original American experiment.

For President Trump, To Fordow Or Not to Fordow, That is the Question
https://gellerreport.com/2025/06/for-president-trump-to-fordow-or-not-to-fordow-that-is-the-question.html/
Just to be clear, Israel never wanted American boots on the ground. Ever. They have always been crystal clear about that. No American blood shed. Militaria. Weapons. Ammo. Firepower. Yes. Only the United States has the 30,000-pound “bunker-busting” bombs necessary to take out the Fordow Nuclear Weapon Plant buried half a mile underground…the crown jewel in Iran’s nuclear program, the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant, remains. Housing several thousand centrifuges and buried 80 to 100 yards underground, the facility would allow Iran to reconstitute a fissile material stockpile even if other elements of its nuclear infrastructure are badly damaged. Israel has two options to destroy Fordow. It can drop a large number of 1,000-pound and 5,000-pound bunker-busters, using its understanding of the facility’s design to maximize damage and dig through layers of soil, rock and concrete. This would take several strike waves, increasing the risk that Iran’s remaining air defenses might “trap” Israeli fighters. Alternatively, Israel could stage a commando raid, physically sabotaging the site, with profound risks to personnel. The most natural option is, instead, an American strike on Fordow. The U.S. developed the GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator, or MOP, a 30,000-pound bunker-buster. Depending on facility design and penetration angle, it would likely take between three and eight MOPs to cripple Fordow. Each B-2 stealth bomber can carry two MOPs. The U.S. could conceivably mix MOPs and lighter weapons to use B-52s, B-1s, or stealth fighters, in the strike package. The point, putting aside the technical specifics, is that the U.S. has a one-shot opportunity to finish Iran’s nuclear ambitions, one that would take no more than a few airstrikes. This would also trigger regime destabilization

Kash Patel Gives Congress Intel on Chinese Interference in 2020 Election, Mass Producing Fake Mail-In Ballots

China had mass-produced fake U.S. driver’s licenses to carry out a scheme to hijack the 2020 election with fake mail-in ballots for Joe Biden. FBI Director Kash Patel handed over the documents to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley…The FBI’s suppressed intel on China’s 2020 election plot isn’t just a scandal—it’s proof of systemic corruption. Kash Patel’s declassified docs reveal China mass-produced fake driver’s licenses to hijack mail-in ballots, yet D.C. buried it. Where’s the outrage?

All Roads Lead to Barack Obama
https://susandaniels.substack.com/p/all-roads-lead-to-barack-obama-92b
Consider our lives today. Our country is involved in multiple wars, heading toward bankruptcy, is violent, filthy, has a dispirited population, corrupt elections, a depleted military and we just had a senile Joe Biden forced out of office under the threat of Democrats withholding donations and use of the 25th Amendment. Did this all start with the inauguration of Joe Biden? The mess we find ourselves in today began with the fraudulent election of Barack Obama. Obama was the perfect patsy for the job: easily flattered, easily led, self-important and greedy. Obama stole the 2008 election using questionable foreign donations and a fraudulent Connecticut social security number. Those are crimes. He was never vetted for office and, had he been, he would have been revealed as an ineligible candidate for the White House. The people who helped him knew that he didn’t qualify. Candidates are not vetted by the opposition party; they are vetted by their own party. Republican politicians knew he used a stolen number when he was elected because I contacted them with proof. They ignored me. Obama originally had a Hawaiian social security number; that would have been mandatory because he claimed he worked at a Baskin-Robbins store when he was fifteen. He could not have worked without one and they were issued by the applicant’s address. His Hawaiian number would have started with a 575 or 576 like his sister Maya Soetoro Ng, not 042. That one was for the exclusive use of Connecticut residents on March 28, 1977, when his was allegedly issued……………………..

Gun Owners Deserve Freedom To Enjoy the Sound of Silencers
https://reason.com/2025/06/18/gun-owners-deserve-freedom-to-enjoy-the-sound-of-silencers/
Long restricted by federal law, suppressors are poised to be freed by litigation or legislation…Suppressors Are Protected by the Second Amendment
“In the view of the United States, the Second Amendment protects firearm accessories and components such as suppressors,” the U.S. Department of Justice conceded in a May 23 filing in the case of U.S. v. George Peterson, regarding a Louisiana man charged with nothing more than possessing an unregistered suppressor. “As a result, restrictions on the possession of suppressors burden the right to bear arms, and a ban on the possession of suppressors or other similar accessories would be unconstitutional.”…But even after decades of continuing technological development, suppressors still don’t deliver the silent mobland rub-outs that Hollywood fantasized then and truth-impaired politicians still scaremonger about.”Mass murderers use silencers so their targeted victims can’t hear the gun shots, and they can kill more people who don’t flee when the shooting begins,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D–Conn.) bullshitted last week…Suppressors are a good idea that help protect our health. They’re also an expression of our fundamental right to do as we please so long as we don’t harm others. On both counts, they deserve to be freed from authoritarian and stupid legal restrictions.

‘Big Beautiful Bill’ Scraps Al Capone-Era Tax On Sawed-Off Shotguns & Short-Barreled Rifles
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/big-beautiful-bill-scraps-al-capone-era-tax-sawed-shotguns-short-barreled-rifles
On Monday, the Senate Finance Committee released the current text for the Reconciliation Bill, also known as the “Big Beautiful Bill.” In the text, Republican Senators have removed Short Barreled Rifles, Short Barreled Shotguns and “Any Other Weapons” (a catch-all term used to restrict other types of firearms not originally covered by the NFA) from the taxation, and therefore the entire tax scheme of the National Firearms Act (NFA)…However, like anything else in Washington, D.C., we shouldn’t celebrate until the bill is signed with these provisions included.
Make sure to keep up the pressure on your elected officials by calling (202) 224-3121 and reminding them that you want to keep the removal of the tax on suppressors and short-barreled firearms in the Big Beautiful Bill. Pressure from grassroots gun owners calling their congress members got us this far, and that same pressure will keep these provisions in the bill when it heads to President Trump’s desk for signing into law.

Iranian State Media: “There Is A Surprise Tonight That The World Will Remember For Centuries”
https://michaeltsnyder.substack.com/p/iranian-state-media-there-is-a-surprise
Are the Iranians just blowing a lot of hot air, or do they really have a big surprise planned? With the Iranians, you just never know. After President Trump threatened the life of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and called for the “unconditional surrender” of Iran, an extremely ominous warning was issued by Iranian state media. We were told to expect “a surprise tonight that the world will remember for centuries”…The Iranians are scared. They are losing this conflict badly, and they are being led by an 86-year-old nut that is increasingly isolated because many of his top advisers have already been eliminated…If the Iranians do possess any special “surprises”, Khamenei might actually use them in a desperate attempt to stay in power. And the fact that the son of Iran’s last shah is calling for an overthrow of the regime is certainly not going to calm his nerves…

“We” Now Have Total Control Of Iran’s Skies, Trump Demands “Unconditional Surrender”
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/white-house-seeks-meeting-irans-foreign-minister-iran-eases-punishing-strikes-axios
We know exactly where the so-called “Supreme Leader” is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there – We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now. But we don’t want missiles shot at civilians, or American soldiers. Our patience is wearing thin. Thank you for your attention to this matter!…Indeed, soon after Israel’s war on Iran began, Israel and its US-based collaborators began pressing Trump to commit the American military to the fight — in defiance of his campaign promises to end the era of endless US wars. Trump needn’t burden himself with that decision: The US Constitution vests the power to initiate war with Congress.

Despite the opposition he’s receiving from ostensibly “right-wing” figures, including Tucker Carlson, President Donald Trump is not backing down. On Monday evening, Axios and CNN reported that the White House was already working toward a “ceasefire” deal that would presumably save the Mullahs, but at 1:00 AM on Tuesday, the president held a press gaggle, slapping down those anonymously-sourced reports. It sure sounds like he wants Israel to finish the job and take this to an actual end, not just a resumption of the status quo under some “deal.” Trump went so far as to say that Iran “giving up entirely” is the goal and that “I’m not too much in the mood to negotiate.”

Illegal Alien Economy: How Foreign Nations Exploit US Borders For Profit
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/illegal-alien-economy-how-foreign-nations-exploit-us-borders-profit
The progressive establishment position on illegals is clear: Make it as easy as possible for anyone to enter the country and make it as difficult as possible to kick them out…There are, of course, ideological agendas at play here, but I believe the primary reason for foreign meddling is economic, specifically when it comes to Central America and South America…The question is, how does mass immigration play into this arrangement?…The Economic And Social Steam Valve…Immigration Extortion…The Golden River Of Remittances –
Last week Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum seemingly threatened the US over a proposed tax on “remittances”. If you are not familiar with remittances, they are basically any monies earned (or stolen) within the US by non-citizens and transferred to their home countries. video – 00:01:06 – https://youtu.be/ypGcZgTThuc – “If necessary, we’ll mobilize. We don’t want taxes on remittances from our fellow countrymen. From the US to Mexico…”…Total foreign remittances to Mexico make up around 5% of their annual GDP and it is the largest single source of income from foreign sources…
Panic is certain. The economics of illegal immigration are ugly…Not only that, but the mere presence of millions of illegals creates a massive demand spike in goods, services and housing which drives up prices. Add to this the billions of dollars spent every year on subsides for migrants collecting welfare (around 60% of all migrants collect from one or more welfare programs upon entering the US), and you have am undeniable inflationary burden that does not need to be here. Foreign governments want illegals here because they are yet another tool for bleeding the US for extra funds. They believe they are entitled to this money, but this methodology is about to change. They simply aren’t ready for what is about to happen.

what the U.S. military calls a Massive Ordnance Penetrator…the GBU-57 MOP is an impressive beast in its own right. While MOP is about 50% bigger than MOAB (!!!) at 30,000 pounds, it actually uses less than one-third as much explosive material. The GBU uses a combination of sheer mass, hardened steel, Mach 1 speed, and GPS pinpoint accuracy to penetrate up to 200 feet underground before its tiny computer brain tells the 5,300 pounds of high explosive to go BOOM…What I didn’t know until today is that only the B-2 Spirit heavy stealth bomber can carry the GBU-57. I had thought that our other two big bombers — the venerable B-52 Stratofortress and the dead-sexy B-1 Lancer — could, just by virtue of their size and payload capability, wield it. Not so.

In their response to the ‘peaceful protests,’ LA’s Cluster B, liberal leadership offer a masterclass in gaslighting…My mother behaved that way because she had a mental derangement called a Cluster B personality disorder. You know this colloquially as clinical narcissism and clinical levels of emotional reactivity that comes out in screaming outbursts, lies, and blaming other people for what you yourself have done…The narcissistic, deranged mind of my mother (that’s the Cluster B personality) is the same kind of mind that we find in the political and cultural left. Yes, I’m saying that I believe many of these politicians, and their voters, are truly diagnose-ably personality disordered. Yes, I’m saying that this is just “child abuse” and “spousal abuse” scaled up to the public stage. It’s not that it’s “like” domestic abuse; it is the very same thing…If you have felt for years that something is really psychologically off about the left, you were right. Maybe this essay has given you a framework that can help you understand what specifically that thing is that’s so “off.” I believe it’s Cluster B psychopathology. Domestic abuse has gone public and feral.

Iranians in Tehran Cheer, Shouting “Death to Khamenei” While Israel Bombs the Regime.

I expect we will see a lot more of this as the regime falls. People in Iran have done this before, taken to the streets in the cause of freedom, and were brutalized and killed by the tens of thousands. “The Israelis just gave the Iranian people a reason to believe”. Not my words, theirs

GLORY GLORY HALLELUJAH! Trump at US Army’s 250th Anniversary Parade, ‘America Stands Tall, Stands Proud, Stands Free’
https://gellerreport.com/2025/06/glory-glory-hallelujah-trump-at-us-armys-250th-anniversary-parade-america-stands-tall-stands-proud-stands-free.html/
The grand military parade that President Donald Trump had been wanting for our country thundered down Constitution Avenue yesterday with tanks, troops, and a 21-gun salute. It was awe-inspiring. And the mentally ill, violent, and treasonous left rioted in various blue cities to an audience of groans and yawns. Nowhere were lines of this country, between good and evil, the righteous home team and the deadly enemy within – more indisputable than in this display of pride versus hate and murder. G-d bless all of our young men and women in the armed forces.

Don’t trust your lying eyes — trust Maxine Waters. She talked to some people…A radical leftist party that tells us not to think for ourselves or believe what we see, but instead blindly accept its cultural Marxist narrative about how the United States is evil. But every so often, one of them slips. Not on purpose, of course. Truth is a dangerous thing for such people, and when it leaks out, it’s an accident. Still, when it happens, it’s a gift — an unfiltered glimpse into the worldview and strategy they typically hide behind layers of euphemism and doublespeak. Such a moment happened with Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) when she uttered the now-immortal words: “Don’t believe what you see.” She meant it. And it tells you everything you need to know about the mind of the modern social justice politician.

Gamboa, a former punk rocker, has a long and sordid documented history of being anti-Trump, pro-antifa, and pro-Black Lives Matter, which is about as stereotypical as it can get… “Some men just want to watch the world burn.” And there’s a 90 percent chance those “men” are leftist Democrats.

LA Mayor Bass Says If ICE Raids Persist, There’ll Be ‘Nobody’ Left To Nanny The Kids Or Mow The Lawns
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/la-mayor-bass-says-if-ice-raids-persist-therell-be-nobody-left-nanny-kids-or-mow-lawns
…Democrat after Democrat has warned what enforcing immigration law means (but only when Republicans do it), and that is the disappearance of slave labor…As we’re all acutely aware, Los Angeles is indistinguishable from a third world riot scene. If you didn’t know better, you’d think you were in Mogadishu in July 1989, or Tripoli in 2011—but nope, it’s just a Golden State city after decades of Democrat control. And, offering her two cents about the events, mayor Karen Bass says that if the ICE raids persist, there will be “nobody” left to nanny LA’s children or mow the lawns…”My biggest fear is the impact that all Angelenos will begin to feel when the labor of immigrants is absent”…”We’ll feel it in the construction industry. We’ll feel it in hospitality. We’ll feel it at grocery stores. People will begin to notice.”…”You think about the mothers who have nannies and housekeepers. They will feel it when there’s nobody to do childcare and there’s nobody to take their kids to school. You know, you will feel it when your gardener goes away, and you don’t know where he or she is. So Angelenos will feel the absence of immigrant labor.”
