Zohran Mamdani, though not terribly popular, has received a “thank you” message from an unlikely source.
A city in California has been using tax money to…raise taxes. I’m not kidding.
And the co-chair for the Democratic Socialists of America proves that the Democratic socialists have no idea what they are doing.
A Special Thanks
According to the Post Millennial:
In a decided shot at DSA-backed New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the Florida Chamber of Commerce has officially launched a Times Square campaign dubbing the socialist mayor as Florida’s Economic Developer of the Year through a massive billboard at the corner of Broadway and West 43rd Street in Manhattan.
“We wanted to thank him for the jobs, the companies, the people that they’re pushing out of New York — and a lot of them are coming to Florida,” Chamber CEO Mark Wilson first told Fox News.
“America is at a crossroads right now. I think everyone that’s paying attention knows that our country was built on freedom and free enterprise and people having the liberty to make their dreams come true,” he said. “And there’s a push in our country right now to take those liberties away and to attack free enterprise. And that’s never worked anywhere, and it won’t work in America.”
“What Mayor Mamdani is doing is dangerous for the country, right? It’s bad for New Yorkers. It’s bad for New York. It’s very harmful for the country,” Wilson continued. “We can choose free enterprise, which is what America was built on, or we can choose to destroy that, which is what the social[ist] policies do… And so, what we’re hoping happens from this campaign is that we refocus America on free enterprise.”
Wilson insisted that the campaign is meant to encourage the free exchange of capital rather than to tear New York down. He said he wanted every state to thrive.
“Even though Florida is winning right now, we’re not looking for New York to lose,” he said. “We’re hoping that these other states will say ‘no’ to this move towards socialism and say ‘yes’ to the very policies that our country was founded on,” he said. “This isn’t about spiking a football or looking at the scoreboard about Florida versus New York. This is really about trying to save our country from crazy.”
Spending taxpayer money to convince taxpayers to pay more taxes — it’s a California specialty.
But it seems Nevada County went too far, as the state’s political watchdogs found the Lake Tahoe-area jurisdiction spent more than $34,000 in taxpayer money trying to convince residents to raise their own taxes — and now that failed campaign is poised to cost county taxpayers another $31,500.
California’s Fair Political Practices Commission is scheduled to vote Aug. 20 on a proposed settlement stemming from Nevada County’s promotion of Measure V, a 2022 ballot measure that would have raised the county sales tax by half a percentage point for 10 years.
Measure V was pitched as a way to generate roughly $12 million annually for wildfire prevention, emergency services and disaster preparedness. But voters weren’t convinced.
The measure received just 48.41% of the vote and failed — despite Nevada County spending $34,614 in public funds on two mailers that state regulators determined crossed the line from informing residents into political advocacy.
The first mailer landed in the mailboxes of 33,351 residents in October 2022 at a cost of $17,708 and touted Measure V as “responsive to community priorities,” including preventing wildfires, improving evacuation routes, enhancing emergency communications and helping low-income seniors and people with disabilities.
But regulators found the county buried the less attractive part — the half-percent sales-tax hike — in the smallest font, while emphasizing the measure’s benefits.
This is the way, for anyone in politics. Make them fully explain their positions, the way in which they will implement it, and the reason why they have the position to being with (i.e. what specific problem is this solving). https://t.co/7XA7nYPpH4
I know I said I would keep this podcast about the uncommon new stories. The ones no one is talking about but we should pay attention to. Well, sometimes there are publicized stories that are just way too stupid to ignore. Let’s go over a bunch of them.
She’s Their Candidate?
According to the Post Millennial:
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez revealed on Saturday that she has decided to freeze her eggs, sharing the decision publicly in a post on Instagram and accusing the Trump administration of “punishing” women on the issue of pregnancy.
“And as women in general, we are not taught about our bodies, we are not prepared for our own lives, whether that is in puberty, whether that is in pregnancy, whether that is in perimenopause, menopause, whether that is in so many different aspects of our lives.”
What is she talking about?
“In the political context that we’re in, in an administration that is dedicated to politicizing women’s bodies and taking our choices away from us and punishing us around decisions to be pregnant or not be pregnant — and, frankly, this administration has made pregnancy more dangerous than probably at any point in the last 30 plus years — we’re gonna take our power back.”
The only ones politicizing women’s bodies is the Left. No one on the Right is preventing her from getting pregnant the natural way.
The congresswoman framed her decision within the debate over abortion, criticizing the current administration and saying women are currently in a “dangerous” position.
She also argued that women in politics face questions about their age and plans to have children in ways men do not.
God, she’s dumb. She freezing her eggs to have a baby when her body will not allow her to have a baby because of abortion rights. Wouldn’t make more sense if she got pregnant and shouted her abortion or something?
“This is just not something that men deal with. Men run for office, or frankly, they interview for jobs and people don’t think in the back of their mind, ‘OK this guy’s running for office, how old is he? Oh, well is he gonna wanna start a family?’ This is a choice I am making to feel more in control of my life.”
Well, people don’t ask men why they don’t have babies because men can’t have babies. And J.D. Vance just had another child with his wife. That was talked about.

There is no reason she should do this. She’s young enough and, supposedly, has a finace.
She says that she may have kids 10 years from now. That would make her almost 50. What kind of life is that for a kid to have two senior citizens as kids?
During the video, she says “Don’t be weird about this.” Is she kidding me? She’s injecting herself on video and sharing it. She’s the weird one.
She looks crazy.
She looks dumb.
She looks fat.
She’s running for President. That’s why she’s promising not to get pregnant for 10 years.
He played in the NBA for 11 years averaging 10 points and 8 rebounds per game. He was a good player.
He quit the NBA for political reasons.
He will dominate the WNBA,
The more entertaining WNBA prospect is Royce White. He has also put his hat into the draft next year. He decided to wear a wig because he discovered his inner femininity.
He played in the NBA for 6 years and was the 16th overall pick in 2012.
He never played much in the NBA but averaged 14 point per game and 9 rebounds per game.
He is for the Senate as a Republican in 2024.
But he is really enjoying this. He has been making the podcast circuit wearing a wig and making the WNBA’s stance look stupid.
Here he is, saying his fear of flying was there because his inner woman was trying to be free.
Former NBA player Royce White who said he is declaring for the WNBA,
“I realized my fear of flying really wasn't a fear of flying. It was the transgender trapped inside of me, caged inside of me…” pic.twitter.com/cUoIseievl
Well, the WNBA is really worried about this. They decided to have an emergency meeting next week to discuss the criteria involved when joining the league.
According to the Post Millennial:
WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert has called for the league to hold discussions about transgender-identifying athletes competing in women’s basketball following ongoing controversy and the recent announcement of two former NBA players seeking WNBA draft eligibility.
Englebert sent a memo to WNBA teams on Friday to address the issue, according to ESPN.
“I know many of you have received questions in recent weeks regarding transgender athlete participation in women’s basketball, and I expect this topic will continue to receive significant attention,” the memo said. “I wanted to reach out to share how we are approaching these conversations at the league office and to thank those of you who have responded to questions from the media with thoughtfulness and professionalism.”
Engelbert said the issue will also be discussed next week at a previously scheduled meeting that includes team presidents and general managers.
“We recognize that this is a complex and nuanced topic, and we will continue to have important conversations with all of you and the Players Association in the weeks and months ahead,” Engelbert added in the memo. “We also plan to convene additional discussions and offer listening sessions for any team leaders who would like to participate. Your perspectives and feedback are invaluable, and I appreciate those who have already reached out to share their thoughts.”
The debate over transgender athletes within the WNBA community erupted after Indiana Fever player Sophie Cunningham publicly supported prohibiting biological males from competing in women’s sports. Her comments prompted protests and criticism, including from some team executives and coaches across the league who opposed her position.
The controversy escalated further after former NBA players Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White announced that they intended to declare for the WNBA Draft while identifying as women. The announcements were widely interpreted as intentionally provocative efforts to draw attention to the WNBA’s eligibility rules, which lack a clear definition of who qualifies as a woman and could include biological men who claim to be women.
On Friday, the Women’s National Basketball Players Association released a statement emphasizing its commitment to “justice equity, diversity, and inclusion.”
Why do we need to keep talking about this? Well, our last story will give you the answer.
It Ain’t Over
According to Reduxx:
A trans-identified male racking up wins in girls’ sports in California has been identified as the brother of a prominent US Olympian. Jaylin Liu is the brother of gold medal-winning figure skater Alysa Liu.
Jaylin appears to have previously gone by the name “Joshua,” and appears to have begun identifying as female relatively recently. Some news articles on his sister’s Olympic successes still refer to him by his birth name, while other profiles have been quietly updated to reflect his new name.
Since the 2025 outdoor athletic season, Jaylin has been participating in girls’ sports on teams at both Albany High School and El Cerrito High School in California.
At Albany, Jaylin took eight separate first-places spots at seasonal meets and races in 2025. He seized a silver medal at the NCS Bayshore Championship in the 400-meter race, and a gold in the 2025 Tri-County Athletic League Frosh-Soph Championship 200-meter race.
This year, Jaylin has continued to outperform his female competitors, and has taken first place at every 200- and 400-meter girls race he’s participated in for Albany. This includes a first place finish at the Tri-County Athletic League Finals that were held on May 8.
He is currently ranked the best “female” runner on his team in the 200- and 400-meter race, and the best “female” runner in the Tri-County Athletic League in the quarter-mile.
Jaylin was one of five children born to surrogates, though he had a different egg donor than his Olympian sister Alysa. The children’s father, Arthur Liu, has said that he explicitly sought out white egg donors for his children.
Arthur was briefly married to a much older woman named Qing Xin Yan, who also goes by the name Mary. While she was the legal guardian for Arthur’s children and helped raise them when they were young, she is not biologically related to any of them.
French transgender basketball player Julie Tetart wouldn’t turn down an offer to play in the WNBA amid debates on the participation of trans athletes in women’s sports.
The 34-year-old Tetart, who came out as trans in October 2021, plays in Monaco.
“If they contact me, I won’t say no. But you have to be realistic: I’m old, and there are far better players than me!” Tetart told OutKick over Instagram direct messages on Monday.
In the 2025-26 season, Tetart led France’s second-tier Ligue 2 in both scoring and rebounding — en route to Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year and Domestic Player of the Year accolades.
Tetart averaged 21.2 points, 20.2 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game during the 2025-26 campaign.

A Brazilian influencer has been handed a two-year prison sentence after using male pronouns to refer to a transgender politician. Bianca Barreto received her sentence from the 9th Criminal Court of Salvador on July 29, after she was found guilty of the “intentional and pejorative use of the gender opposite… [to a] self-declared identity.”
The sentence follows a lengthy case stemming from a 2024 video posted to social media by Barreto. In the video, she criticized Duda Salabert, a member of Brazil’s Chamber of Deputies. Salabert is a member of the left-wing Socialism and Liberty Party, and was one of the first openly trans-identified people to be elected to the Chamber, serving since 2022.
Barreto’s video described an earlier case involving Salabert and conservative parliamentarian Nikolas Ferreira. Ferreira, another member of the Chamber of Deputies, stood in the same election as Salabert in 2020 to be a local councillor for the city of Belo Horizonte. At the time, Salabert was the first trans-identified person to run for office to the city council.
“He is a man. That’s what’s on his birth certificate, regardless of what he thinks,” he said, while in another interview saying he wasn’t worried about being sued by Salabert for his remarks. “It’s biology. I’m not saying something I think. He is a man. And it’s important to make it clear that there is no criminalization related to biology,” he added.
However, Salabert did file a criminal complaint against Ferreira, referencing the fact that Brazil’s Supreme Court had classified transphobia and homophobia as crimes of “social racism” since 2019. The case was later dismissed on procedural grounds, but in a separate civil action, Ferreira was forced to pay R$80,000 in 2023, equivalent to around $15,500 USD, reduced on appeal to R$30,000.
Zohran Mamdani’s city-run grocery stores are racist and sexist.
That’s great! They replaced the perverted Nazi in main with a guy who likes incest.
And we have another example of the mental health crisis within the trans cult.
What a Hypocrite
According to the Daily Wire:
As New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani unveils his new city-run grocery stores, his administration is taking steps to prevent some shoppers from taking advantage of the program — by requiring identification.
“So our RFP [Request for Proposal] makes it very clear that this is a program for New Yorkers to be able to put food on the table, not a program for people to be able to make a quick buck through reselling,” said Mamdani, answering a question on how his administration would safeguard the grocery stores.
Jeanny Pak, the interim president and CEO of the NYC Economic Development Corporation, revealed that the mayor’s office would be issuing a form of identification for New Yorkers to be able to shop in the government stores.
“We are looking to make sure that we target New Yorkers whether it be a sort of library card-esque thing and also we manage who’s buying and that it is focused on everyday New Yorkers,” Pak said.
According to proposals, the government grocery store operators will create free access cards that will help ensure that New Yorkers are not abusing the program. Shoppers without a card would not be prohibited from entering the store, but they would not be allowed to make any purchases without the ID.
Zohran Mamdani's communist grocery stores will require ID to prove that people using it are NYC residents.
Conservatives lit up on Thursday night in response to a report claiming that Maine Democratic Senate candidate Troy Jackson, who recently replaced disgraced candidate Graham Platner on the ballot, fathered two children with his second cousin and high school sweetheart.
The report, from Maine Wire editor-in-chief Steve Robinson, found that Jackson shares two adult sons with a woman named Lana Pelletier, his second cousin with whom he shares the same great-grandparents.
The report pointed out that the relationship is not uncommon in northern rural Maine, where Jackson is from, and that it is not illegal, but many on social media reacted with shock and criticism.
“Can’t wait for Democrats to defend cousin marriage!,” Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., posted on X.
A transitioning son accused of killing his mother inside a Laguna Beach home bludgeoned her to death with a hammer — with the alleged murderer’s grandmother discovering the bloody aftermath, authorities said.
Police responded to the rental home of Safford James Wolfson, 36, around 11 a.m. on July 20 after Wolfson’s grandma entered the residence and found blood-spattered floors and smashed furniture, prosecutors revealed.
Investigators said Wolfson’s grandmother first found Wolfson lying on the floor covered in blood before discovering the body of Angela Caprioli, 61, in a bedroom with severe blunt-force injuries to her head and face.
Wolfson’s grandmother called 911, with cops and medics arriving and taking Wolfson to the hospital with self-inflicted injuries to his neck.
Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer said Wolfson faces murder charges as well as a felony enhancement for using a deadly weapon.
Later in the article, we learn a little more about this guy:
He said the house where the alleged slaying occurred has been a longstanding eyesore in the neighborhood due to vegetation overgrowth. Police have frequently been called to the address over the years, he added.
Caprioli showed up at the address about a week before the killing in a red pickup truck loaded with boxes and flatscreens, Pettit said.
Wolfson’s strnge online presence drew attention as investigators probed the alleged homicide.
An X account bearing Wolfson’s name says the owner is a “trans girl looking for fun in LA,” and a TikTok account associated with the suspect includes several videos showing Wolfson dancing in dresses, miniskirts, crop tops and underwear.
Wolfson’s LinkedIn profile says he co-founded Kevin’s House LLC, a Southern California dual-diagnosis sober living and assisted adult care facility that provides services for people facing mental health challenges.
Caprioli described herself as the founder of Kevin’s House on her Facebook profile. Her account features a post showing her posing with Wolfson as the two smile together.
A liberal-led federal appeals court handed President Donald Trump two immigration victories Wednesday, reversing separate district court orders that had delayed the termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for migrants from South Sudan and Ethiopia.
The judgments from the First Circuit Court of Appeals come after U.S. District Judges Brian Murphy and Patti Saris issued back-to-back orders temporarily blocking the Trump administration’s termination of TPS for Ethiopia and South Sudan, respectively, late last week. The rulings drew sharp criticism from legal experts and Trump administration officials, who called the judges “rogue” and argued their decisions defied the Supreme Court.
The three-judge First Circuit panel consisted of Judges Julie Rikelman and Seth Aframe, both appointed by President Joe Biden, and Judge Joshua Dunlap, who was appointed by President Donald Trump.
In nearly identical rulings, the majority liberal panel found that the lower court judges’ orders conflicted with the Supreme Court’s decision in Mullin v. Doe, which held that courts cannot block TPS terminations based on non-constitutional claims.
“Mullin held that ‘the TPS statute’s judicial-review bar applies to all non-constitutional claims’ challenging the Secretary of Homeland Security’s determination with respect to the termination of a TPS designation,” the judges wrote.
Iowa Solicitor General Eric Wessan told Fox News Digital that the First Circuit correctly applied the precedent established by the Supreme Court.
An $18,000-a-summer Maine sleepaway camp chartered private jets to ferry campers and their parents to the wilderness retreat.
But they might have been better off rounding up some yellow buses and a very thick book of singalong songs for the ride to the far north east — because Page Six has learned that the camps are now suing the air company for allegedly failing to provide the planes.
Camp Laurel — which is on the banks of Echo Lake in the Belgrade Lakes region of the Pinetree State — and its parent company, Coastal Camps Inc., filed suit against White Plains Aviation Partners, on Monday claiming that the firm owes it at least $355,000 for alleged “breach of contract, negligent supervision [and] unjust enrichment.”
Court papers reviewed by Page Six show the camp alleges the company failed to honor its agreements with the camp, and didn’t return the money after the flights fell through.
It seems that private flights have increasingly become just another line item on the summer budget for wealthy families.
There is a book called The Camp of the Saints about the third invading Europe and the consequences to Western Civilization. Guess what? This book, written in 1974, is happening today. We should really pay attention to this.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have taken another step towards a third straight World Series title. A lot of people are whining that the Dodgers are ruining baseball, but are they? Some who know baseball say, “no.”
And our courts, once again, prove we are living in a two-tiered justice system.
There’s A Book About This
According to Perplexity:
The most likely reference is the Ceuta border incident in late July 2026, when tens of thousands of migrants crossed from Morocco into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta, prompting Spain to deploy military and police forces. Spain described it as a breach of territorial integrity, while some politicians called it an “invasion.”
What happened
Reports say roughly 49,000 to 60,000 people crossed into Ceuta over about a day, mostly by swimming or crossing on foot along the shoreline, overwhelming local facilities. At least 18 to 72 people died in the crossing attempts, depending on the report and date.
Why Ceuta matters
Ceuta is a small Spanish territory on the North African coast, so a mass crossing from Morocco creates an immediate border, security, and humanitarian crisis. The incident also revived debate over migration policy, border enforcement, and Spain-Morocco relations.
Historical meaning
If you meant a historical invasion, the closest major conflict is the Hispano-Moroccan War of 1859–1860, which began over border tensions involving Ceuta and was fought in northern Morocco.
Others pieces of information:
72 people have died crossing.
Riots, murders, rapes and looting have occurred.
The people of Ceuta have been protesting.
The Prime Minister of Spain, Pedro Sanchez, is full of shit.
He didn’t send the military. He sent 60 troops. CBS really had to work to prove there was a military presence.
The Sanchez government has offered complete amnesty including voting right for illegal aliens.
That’s because his government is corrupt and failing. Spain’s economy is a disaster.
He wanted this.
There is a book, called The Camp of the Saints , almost identically described what happened to Spain.
A non-English-speaking Ukrainian migrant killed two people while driving a semi-truck in Alabama after becoming distracted by his phone. Now, he’s getting off with a slap on the wrist.
Andrii Dmyterko recently took a plea deal, pleading guilty to two misdemeanor counts of criminally negligent homicide, while prosecutors dismissed two felony charges of homicide by vehicle, Fox 10 reported. He received a sentence of two years in Clarke County jail and was credited for 430 days, meaning he will need to serve less than a year behind bars.
While behind the wheel of an 18-wheeler on May 6, 2025, Dmyterko crashed into four vehicles stopped at a red light, resulting in the deaths of two people. Dmyterko didn’t stop until his truck was roughly the length of two football fields from the crash scene.
The victims of the crash were later identified as Woodie Earl Beck III, 53, and Ashley Marie Springer McDonald, 37, according to AL.com.
In an effort to ensure the Ukrainian national stays locked up, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) lodged a detainer with local authorities in Alabama requesting that they hand him over upon his eventual release.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said the Biden administration let Dmyterko into the country in 2024 through its humanitarian parole program for Ukraine.
Walmart has already been known to secure things like razors and socks. Well, now they are going to to secure a new food item. I have a thought.
There seems to still be some sanity in Great Britain. Can this sanity spread a little.
And a brewery in Wisconsin F-ed around and found out.
Arrests Will Secure Things Too
According to the Post Millennial:
A California Walmart is drawing attention for attaching anti-theft devices to packages of beef.
A video posted by influencer Tony Bartleson, who goes by “Meatdad” online, showed packages of ribeye steaks and ground beef with wired security devices secured to them at a Walmart in San Jose. In the video, Bartleson held up a cowboy ribeye priced at nearly $16 per pound while sarcastically saying, “Welcome to California.”
The video also showed a three-pound package of ground beef wrapped with a security lock that would typically be used for more high-value products.
In a statement to The US Sun, Bartleson commented on how “seeing basic food items locked behind cages is sad.”
“My hope is that we can get to a point where measures like this aren’t necessary anymore—where people don’t have to steal just to eat, stores don’t have to lock up food, and everyone has reliable access to the necessities they need,” he said. “I think most of us want to live in a world where people can put food on the table with dignity, and I hope we continue moving in that direction.”
While it is unclear if this is just one store in California’s efforts to deter theft or a statewide policy, it comes as California continues to grapple with the issue of retail theft. The state has faced years of criticism over its handling of shoplifting following the passage of Proposition 47 in 2015, which reclassified most thefts involving less than $950 as misdemeanors. The change reduced the incentive for law enforcement agencies and prosecutors to devote resources to investigating lower-level theft offenses.
A school chaplain in the United Kingdom who was fired and blacklisted after preaching a sermon on LGBTQ issues has reached a confidential settlement with his former employer, ending a seven-year legal battle.
The Rev. Bernard Randall, an ordained Church of England minister, worked for five years as chaplain at Trent College, an independent school for K-12 students in Derbyshire, England. In 2018, Randall grew concerned when the school partnered with Educate and Celebrate, an outside group whose stated goal was to “smash heteronormativity” and embed queer theory in school culture. The group has since dissolved.
“I objected to [it] at the time it started, and tried to discuss it with the senior leadership, [but] they weren’t interested,” Randall told Fox News Digital.
The following year, a student asked Randall why pupils were required to accept LGBTQ ideology at a Christian school. Randall said that question, along with similar concerns raised by other students and staff, prompted him to deliver a sermon on freedom of belief and conscience.
In his chapel address, Randall told his young students they were entitled to hold traditional Christian beliefs on marriage and biological sex, while emphasizing that they must show respect to those with whom they disagree.
Days later, school administrators summoned Randall to a meeting, interrogated him, suspended him and launched an investigation. He was also reported to local law enforcement and Prevent, the U.K. government’s counterterrorism program. Prevent ultimately determined he did not pose a terrorist threat.
In addition, the Diocese of Derby blacklisted Randall as a safeguarding risk to children.
Trent College eventually fired Randall for gross misconduct. He was reinstated on appeal, but under strict conditions that restricted his sermon topics and required prior administrative approval for chapel content. Furloughed during the pandemic, Randall was ultimately made redundant, or laid off, on Dec. 31, 2020.
Some things:
Lawfare has been how the Left has been winning for decades. We need to take something out of theor playbook.
Saul Alinsky’s book, Rules for Radicals has been an instruction manual for this type of warfare. And don’t kid yourself, this is a war.
The reality is, there is morality in the world. Not that my truth bullshit. Real, objective morality. Even those that are lost and converting to evil know it.
Truth is the greatest antiseptic.
Even Christianity (and I don’t consider the Church of England true Christianity) is being corrupted.
A Wisconsin brewery known for anti-Trump social media posts, including one promising a free beer promotion upon the death of President Donald Trump, has had its permit to operate in the state revoked by state officials.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Monday that liberal activist and brewery owner Kirk Bangstad is “vowing to fight ‘tooth and nail’ after receiving a letter from the state’s Department of Revenue revoking Minocqua Brewing Co.’s permit to operate in Wisconsin, according to a July 26 newsletter sent to his supporters.”
“As you can imagine, I’m not taking this lying down,” Bangstad wrote in a Substack post on Sunday. “We’re going to fight the state of Wisconsin tooth and nail, and once again, they’ll have to pry me out of my taprooms before I stop selling beer to thirsty progressives who come to visit us.”
Later in the article, we find what the real problem is:
The Sentinel reported that state regulators pursued revoking Bangstad’s alcohol license after authorities seized canned beer from his company in June, alleging it had been transported from Illinois without the required permits and taxes. The newspaper also reported that Bangstad criticized the proposed action as an excessive response, arguing the alleged tax violations did not warrant shutting down his business.
Some things:
This is a state issue, not federal.
This is an interstate violation and a tax violation.
I know we want to make more out of this than it is.
Trump or the federal government had nothing to do with this.
Dr. Tony Fauci can’t keep the truth out of his diary, and guess what happened when we found the diary? He lied about COVID-19. What is he going to tell Congress about all his lies?
And Zohran Mamdani hates Americans and is going full communist!
Now, He Has Nothing to Say?
Americans buried parents alone. Children lost years of childhood. Families watched businesses they had built over a lifetime disappear.
And while the country suffered, Anthony Fauci was writing in his diary about becoming “the most famous and talked about person in the country”… https://t.co/QeVfqwi9gP
“You've done more to harm science than anybody in my lifetime. And I hope you'll go home and write that in your diary.”

Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s administration has published a searchable database of Big Apple properties that could fall under the state’s new pied-à-terre tax, effectively doxxing thousands of wealthy New Yorkers.
The city’s Department of Finance uploaded the comprehensive list – which purports to cover all unoccupied, non-primary residences in the five boroughs worth north of $1 million – including the full names and addresses of every property owner.
“It’s a reckless and foolish move, especially considering there are potentially thousands of properties on this list that do not qualify as second homes or whose owners will successfully dispute their inclusion,” Council Minority Leader David Carr (R-Staten Island) — whose own home appears on the list — told The Post Monday.
“The best city in the world deserves the best parks, libraries, and schools in the world. That’s only possible when we all pay our fair share,” Mamdani wrote Thursday.
The socialist darling has long touted the policy enacted by Gov. Kathy Hochul and Albany Democrats to tax second homes in the city – though critics have warned it could cause property values to plummet.
Mamdani threatened to raise city property taxes by a staggering 9.5% in February unless he was allowed to “tax the rich” to cover a $12 billion budget gap that was later revised down to $5.4 billion.
City Hall estimates the pied-à-terre tax would yield $500 million per year for the Big Apple’s budget.
But Democratic city Comptroller Mark Levine’s office said the real figure would be closer to $340 to $380 million and could diminish over time.
Unsurprisingly, the colossal database of names and addresses included several A-list New Yorkers, including director Woody Allen, longtime Vogue editor Anna Wintour and actress Cynthia Nixon — a loyal Mamdani supporter.
Mamdani’s administration published the names and addresses of New York property owners he wants to tax more.
That is not simply a tax policy. It is a list designed to expose people to harassment, threats, and potentially worse.
The Bolsheviks targeted the government officials and all those in their orbit to the point they all had to go into hiding.
Stalin did it to the Kulaks in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s, arresting them and throwing them in the gulags.
Mao did it with the business and property owners using the Red Guard (our Antifa). Arresting, humiliating, and even killing anyone who was productive, prosperous, or educated.
Mamdani is doing exactly the same thing.
He wants to make New York City into the third world.
He wants anyone who is successful to leave New York City.
Even his city-run grocery stores are made to destroy the economy.
This is what communism does.
Mamdani is a child who wants and wants and wants. All for himself.
A growing grassroots effort led by families of 9/11 victims is demanding that New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani be banned from attending the upcoming 25th anniversary ceremony at Ground Zero.
The group pointed to his long record of troubling ties, radical associations, and statements regarding Islamic extremism.
A petition posted on Change.org has already garnered more than 5,200 signatures, including over 300 from family members of 9/11 victims. It contends that Mamdani’s presence at the Ground Zero event would be an insult to the memory of the nearly 3,000 Americans murdered by al-Qaeda terrorists.
Organizer Giovanni Galante, who lost his 29-year-old wife Grace in the attack, stressed that the silver-anniversary ceremony must remain a sacred space for mourning rather than a platform for figures connected to far-left anti-American rhetoric. “This day is sacred to us,” he said. “It is not political, and it is not a platform for those connected to such views. His presence would be deeply hurtful and inappropriate — like an unwelcome guest at a deeply personal ceremony.”
The petition centers its objection on Mamdani’s public record, citing “concerns [that] have been raised about Mr. Mamdani’s public positions, associations, and responses to rhetoric that many perceive as hostile to these shared values.”
Zohran Mamdani reads off a script as he ignores the wishes of 9/11 survivors.

Of course he’s going. That’s because it’s a mockery of the tragedy that happened 25 years ago. It is confirmation that we have forgotten about that aweful terrorist attack.
It also is a symbol of how Islam defeated us, that a radical Islamist could show up at the memorial.
There will be a lot of comments made b y this piece of shit before the anniversery. Do not be shocked that he says we must understand the terrorists. It’s coming.
A multiple murderer is looking for a second chance. Will he get it?
The communists are telling us what they are going to do. Are we going to listen?
And the radical Islamists were very busy bees this weekend.

Bryan Kohberger is seeking to withdraw his guilty plea over the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students and is asking for a new trial.
He claims his plea was based on false promises, misinformation, and ineffective legal counsel, while maintaining his innocence.
Daniel Adongo, 37, spent two seasons as a linebacker for the Indianapolis Colts, playing twice, and was cut in 2015 after facing domestic violence allegations. His visa expired in 2016, but he remained in the US, a press statement from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said.
According to the ICE statement, he was arrested multiple times in Indiana over the previous nine years “for crimes including felony intimidation, battery and disorderly conduct”. The statement did not address why he was not deported for the visa overstay.
The agency cited a criminal mischief with damage conviction in 2020, for which he was sentenced to a year in jail.

Some things:
Are people going to start listening to these people?
Are people going to start thinking about the consequences of these policies?
You should also think about who these people are. It turns out most of these socialists are young, privileged, over-educated, under-paid white people.
It turns out a gender studies degree doesn’t land you a high paying job. These people then blame the system instead of their stupid decisions.
Most people don’t agree with this.
These people are dangerous.
Bolsheviks were unpopular too. They started a revolution.
The Maoists were unpopular. They started a revolution.
They don’t have boundaries. The Constitution means nothing.
Will We Ever Learn?
According to the Daily Wire:
German police shot and killed a Muslim man who previously tried to join the Islamic State after he rammed a vehicle into Berlin’s Pride festival on Saturday and then attacked bystanders with a machete, leaving one person dead and several others injured.
Die Zeit, a national German newspaper, reported that 21-year-old Abdul Ballout was shot and killed by police at a complex in Spandau, one of Berlin’s largest boroughs. The Associated Press also confirmed the report a short time later.
Police launched a massive manhunt for Ballout, who police say deliberately drove a white van into Berlin’s Tiergarten park around 10 p.m., killing one woman and injuring at least 29 others before attacking festivalgoers with what authorities said may have been a machete. Ballout is said to have fled the “horrific scene” on foot. German Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt connected the attack to radical Islamist ideology.
Of course, people did not blame Islam for the attack. They blamed the system, colonialism, the truck, and, of course, white men. Most of the lame excuses why an Islamic terrorist killed gay people were in German, but you could count on TikTok to have someone blame white men. So here it is:
OMG. Liberal women are blaming “white men” for the Islamic extremist who ran over people at an LGBTQ parade in Berlin.
“You’re not going to scapegoat the Muslim community like they’re the violent ones, when it’s actually you (white men).”
That wasn’t the only terrorist attack this weekend:
A knife-wielding man injured three women, including a pregnant woman, during a stabbing spree in central Paris, reportedly shouting that Allah had ordered him to do it.
A man was arrested for stabbing a Jew and an Asian with a screw driver in New York. Of course, he yelled “Allu Akbar” which means it’s a complete mystery to the media why he did it.
In Canada, two Jewish bakeries were shot at in Toronto. No suspect has been arrested, but we can imagine who will be caught.
The Trump administration has moved to shorten the time allotted for foreign journalists on visas in the US, taking the time they are allowed to stay on a visa from five years to just 240 days. For reporters from China, that number is even smaller at just 90 days for time allowed on a given visa.
How about not letting Chinese reporters into the country at all? It is state media, fo f- them.
Why does any reporter need 240 days (or even 90 days) in this country?
The new rules announced by the Department of Homeland Security will do away with the older “duration of status” system, which allowed foreign journalists to stay in the US as long as they meet eligibility requirements. That will be replaced with a fixed visa duration system, but visas can also be extended. The shorter rule of 90 days for Chinese journalists could add more tension to the relationship between the US and China.
Although Chinese journalists can only come for 90 days on their visa, the “special administrative regions” of Hong Kong or Macao can stay longer. The rule is set to take effect after it has been on the Federal Register for 60 days.
Here is the lawyer speak. Reading this stuff, suddenly this doesn’t look like this is as big a deal as the headline makes it out.
The move from the Trump administration comes as the White House has tightened immigration since Trump took office in 2025. The group “Reporters with Borders” was outraged with the decision, and said in a statement, “We are outraged that the Trump administration has cruelly limited the duration of visas for foreign journalists from a period of up to five years to a fixed eight months.”
“This change destroys international journalists’ ability to report from the U.S. and makes it extremely difficult for international outlets to operate here at all,” the statement added. “The relentless cycle of visa renewals restricts press freedom, as journalists will feel compelled to avoid drawing the administration’s ire, lest their applications be rejected.”
You know, I don’t give a crap what the foreign press thinks. They already hate us. Let’s give them more reason to hate us.
I do ‘t think this goes far enough. We need to severely limit foreign visas period, not just put restrictions on them.
As usual in our crazy society, someone makes a statement that is common sense and the Left has to scream and gnash their teeth.
Here’s the problem the Left has: The more they whine and scream, the crazier they look. I have some examples.
Sophie Cunningham
Sophie Cunningham is a WNBA star for the Indiana Fever. She started as kind of an unknown. Then Caitlan Clark joined the team and she became a star. Not because she’s great at basketball (She might be, I don’t know), but because she got sick and tired of seeing Clark getting the crap beaten out of her and she decided to fight back. This made her popular with the 72 WNBA fans out there because everyone could see that Clank was getting beaten up because the other players were jealous.
With her new-found Fame, something else came to view. Sophie Cunningham is hot. Blond, great body, spunky, everything men find attractive. Her dance videos on social media have blown up. TYoucould even bagshe is now more popular than Caitlin Clark. And, yea, she’s one of the 7 players in the WNBA that is straight.
There is also something else that makes her popular. She speaks her mind. When she does this, a lot of common sense comes out of her mouth, Here she Is, saying something that should be uncontroversial, which means it is extemily contraversial. Men shouldn’t be play by In women’s sports.
WE NEED MORE CELEBRITIES AND ATHLETES LIKE HER!
WNBA Star Sophie Cunningham DOUBLES DOWN On Keeping Men Out of Women's Sports as ESPN Reporter SEETHES About the Trans Community
This is one of the not many athletes & celebrities that is not scared to say what’s right!…
For some reason, this has become a contraversial take.
I’m not sure why this question was asked, I don’t know.
By the way, there is no reason to believe she is a conservative. She has no problem with trans-people. She just doesn’t think trannies should be in women’s sports, restrooms, or locker rooms.
By the way, conservatives don’t care about trans people either. These guys are forcing this crap on us instead of just leaving us alone.
Stop calling everything a community. This is an overused word. Because a bunch of people share the same mental illness doesn’t make them a community.
Disagreeing with a position does not mean anyone is being targeted. In fact, it is the trannies that are targeting women.
She’s smart. Never apologize.
Only 1 out of 5 question were about basketball. You can’t hate the media enough. They’re creating the controversy.
Here’s the thing:
Sophie Cunningham is 6’1″, 156 pounds.
I am 5’7″, 177 pounds. I am in good shape.
If we were to get in a fight, who do you .think would win?
Men and women are different, no matter what anyone says or thinks. Even men in dresses.
Megan Rapinoe
Of course, the Left has to pull out the crazies to refute common sense. The View decided to bring on US Women’s Soccer star (retired) Megan Rapinoe to counter Cunningham’s argument. She goes on to say something absolutely insane.
Megan Rapinoe, a far-left activist and former women's pro soccer player, went on The View and claimed that banning MEN from invading WOMENS' sports is actually an attack on women.
Just by not going to see women play sports is abuse. This is the victim mentality that feminists have.
By the way, this is the same “abuse” the trannies are talking about. You don’t believe in what the believe in and you’re abusing them, victimizing them.
Nobody is going after gay marriage, even though they could. The Roe vs. Wade decision and the gay marriage decision were terrible decisions.
We should because the gay marriage decision led to the emboldening of the trannies.
Unsafe from who? From men entering women’s spaces. That “from who.”
Show video of crazy trannie.
I don’t want a man in the same restroom as my wife or daughter. That shouldn’t be controversial.
By the way, Megan Rapinoe wouldn’t want a straight male walking into a restroom while she’s taking a dump.
The dumbest statement of the day: Kepping men out of women’s sports is sexist against women. You can’t make this shit up.
No, No, there is no bill in Congress that requires people to look at the genitals of women.
This is a common lie. They say it all the time.
This has been debunked years ago
Here’s the thing, Megan Rapinoe is a liar. She’s virtue signaling. She doesn’t believe a thing she’s saying.
She knows there’s a difference between men and women.
Her World Cup team lost to a U-15 boys team, 5-2. They got killed.
Outside of that, she never had to play against men in competition.
She never had to share a restroom of locker room with a man.
She retired. She never will. She has no skin in the game while she makes all these claims.
I guarentee you, she would have a different opinion if she ever had to deal with a trannie during a real competition.
The Pushback
Back to Sophie Cunningham, the trannies are pissed. Very pissed.
Here is a guy who thinks he’s a woman, deciding to burn his Sophie Cunningham jersey. I do wanty to point out before playing the video, this does convince trans people don’t have mental issues.
New York City keeps proving they hate their own people.
Los Angeles is finally admitting their “most beautiful” park is actually a crap hole. I could have told you that 30 years ago.
And the American Federation of Teachers is no longer hiding the fact they are indoctrinating your kids to be little communists. Please start listening to these people!
This Will Fix Everything…Not!
According to the Post Millennial:
Socialist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has quietly made a pilot program that pays drug users for their used needles permanent. Critics say the move will only encourage more drug use as those who use drugs will be incentivized to turn in more used needles for cash.
You think?
According to a report from the New York Post, the Big Apple’s budget for the fiscal year includes $3 million to maintain the Health Department’s Community Syringe Redemption Program. The program pays junkies 20 cents per syringe turned in. Those using drugs can get paid for up to 50 used needles a day for $10, and can turn them in at eight different drop-off sites. The sites are located in the Bronx, Queens, Manhattan, and Brooklyn.
The program was piloted as something that would get used needles off the streets and off public property, and was initially approved with legislation that was passed in 2022. The official program started in 2025. Republican Queens Councilwoman Joann Ariola slammed the program, saying that the cash—provided to the users through $189 million in settlement funds from opioid manufacturers and distributors—“should all be going toward addiction treatment services” instead of paying drug users for their used needles.
So, essentially, this is a program started to give money won in a lawsuit to bureaucrats.
Over 2.3 million needles have been collected with the program over its first 16 months, leading to payouts of nearly $300,000 in cash. The program was supposed to help the Sanitation Department with its efforts in picking up used needles around parks and other public places, but the department says that they are still picking up the same number of needles as before the program was launched.
So this program isn’t even doing what it was intended to do.
Some things:
The Left loves drug use by its people.
It keeps people stupid.
It keeps people voting blue because Dems are the only ones that support this.
It keeps people addicted, not only to drugs, but to government services like this one.
It keeps people sedated, literally, from protesting the trashing of their city.
The Left hates America and this is just another way to undermine America.
New York City’s jails watchdog is set to go woke — scrapping the words “inmate” and “inmates” from its rule book and replacing them with “people in custody” or “person in custody.”
The proposed rule change for the Board of Correction swaps the words “inmate” or “inmates” with “people in custody” or “person in custody” more than 300 times.
Criminal justice advocates claim that “inmates” a derogatory term for incarcerated criminal defendants or convicts.
“In 2021, the Board made a commitment to employ person-first language in its Minimum Standards and communications by deleting references to inmates’ in favor of personfirst terms such as people in custody and using gender inclusive language in Chapter 1 of the Minimum Standards,” the proposed rule says.
“The Board proposes continuing this vital effort in Chapters 2 and 3.”
“Individuals impacted by the criminal justice system have long noted that terms such as felon, inmate, prisoner, and convict dehumanize individuals and perpetuate the idea that incarcerated people should be permanently demonized and stigmatized,” a Hochul release at the time said.
Some things:
Again, manipulating language is what the Left does.
By “humanizing” the language, the Left is hoping to ignore the evil these people have done in order for them to join their coalition.
The Left does the same thing with other words like “gender” and “gender affirming care” or “pro-choice.”
And it’s not like they just want to add words for these people. They want to rid the other words from the language.
If you refuse to stop using the correct language, you’re a fascist, racist, sexist, homophobe, or whatever.
The word “retard” or saying “Merry Christmas” are important to you, just ignore when these people start changing definitions.
The Trump administration threw cold water on New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s dream of arresting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, calling the proposal “pure political theater.”
U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz responded on Saturday after Mamdani revealed he was in “active conversation” with New York City’s Law Department over whether he could order Netanyahu’s arrest if the Israeli leader visits New York for the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in September.
“Mayor Mamdani: here’s why your threat to arrest PM Netanyahu in NYC during UNGA is not going to happen,” Waltz wrote on X. He went on to elaborate that the United States is not a party to the Rome Statute that established the International Criminal Court (ICC), the U.N. Headquarters Agreement grants diplomatic protections to visiting heads of government, longstanding head-of-state immunity applies, and “federal authority trumps any local mayor’s wishes.”
“This is pure political theater,” Waltz concluded.
Mamdani has repeatedly argued that Netanyahu should be arrested over an International Criminal Court warrant accusing the Israeli prime minister of war crimes and crimes against humanity related to Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.
“I believe that Prime Minister Netanyahu belongs in The Hague,” Mamdani said during an interview with The New York Times. “He’s a war criminal who has been charged by the International Criminal Court.”
While acknowledging uncertainty over his legal authority, Mamdani said his administration is actively reviewing whether New York City could detain Netanyahu if he arrives for the annual U.N. General Assembly. “Whatever the law allows me to do in New York City, that’s what we will do, but we won’t be writing our own laws to that end,” he said.
The comments marked a continuation of promises Mamdani made during last year’s mayoral campaign, when he pledged to direct the New York Police Department to arrest Netanyahu if he entered the city in compliance with the ICC warrant. At the time, Mamdani said, “It is my desire to ensure that this be a city that stands up for international law.”
Legal experts have long questioned whether such an arrest would be possible, noting that the United States does not recognize the ICC’s jurisdiction and that any attempt by a city government to detain a sitting foreign head of government would almost certainly trigger a confrontation with federal authorities.
Some things:
Let’s go with the concept of the idea first, not the reality.
Zohran Mamdani has no business performing a federal job concerning international. If the government wanted to acknowledge the ICC’s warrant, the Secretary of State will deal with that, not the mayor of New York.
This shows us the immature thinking (and I mean that) of Zohran Mamdani. He thinks New York City is its own little kingdom and he is the king.
This is why he puts his two cents into everything involving international affairs. He believes his he has a say in world affairs. This makes his dangerous.
In reality, the ICC is feckless.
Unlike what the movies say, the ICC is a very weak organization that is made up of about 123 countries.
The United States, Russia, India, Israel and China do not acknowledge the ICC.
Over the last 10 years, 6 additional countries decided not to acknowledge the ICC.
Finally, Ben Netenyahu is the most hated man in the world. What do you think his security is going to be like?
Shocking new records reveal the filthy reality of Los Angeles’ notoriously rundown MacArthur Park — where city crews hauled away nearly 13 million pounds of trash and hazardous waste last year.
Records obtained by The California Post through a public records request show sanitation workers dragged out more more than 6,359 tons of disgusting debris in 2025, including a staggering 142,329 pounds of human waste.
The records paint a disturbing picture of one of Los Angeles’ most promising public spaces, which has been plagued by homelessness and open drug use for years under the leadership of lefty Councilwoman Eunisses Hernandez, whose district includes the park.
Hernandez has supported city-funded programs that distributed tens of thousands of syringes and crack pipes in the public space, pouring more than $27 million into the park and surrounding area.
Last year, the city’s intensive cleanup program CARE+ — which closes portions of the park while sanitation workers, police, hazardous-waste crews and other agencies remove dangerous materials — carried out 7,111 operations in MacArthur Park.
Among the material removed were 142,329 pounds of human waste, nearly 24,000 pounds of discarded syringes and sharps, more than 107,000 pounds of flammable materials, nearly 42,000 pounds of corrosive chemicals, more than 19,000 pounds of toxins and poisons, more than 32,000 pounds of petroleum products, and thousands of pounds of compressed gases and reactive chemicals requiring specialized disposal.
In all, crews hauled away 12.7 million pounds of solid waste, record show.
Some things:
Make drug use illegal.
Make drug possession illegal.
Make selling drugs illegal.
Make littering illegal.
Make homelessness illegal.
Make loitering illegal.
Bring back asylums for the mentally ill.
Bring back asylums back for the drug addicted.
Require forced incarceration for drug addicts and the mentally ill.
Make crime illegal and have consequences. Problem solved.
