Episode 1228 – No, He’s Not Running

Left wing terrorism hits New York City…again.

The World Cup is over. Do any of us care?

And New York City is becoming Tijuana.

News

Here is some news:

  • There was a terrorist attack in New York City.
  • Two servicemen were killed from an Iranian attack on an airbase in Jordan. One is missing.
  • Spain wins the World Cup in a really boring final game.

This Is What They Consider “Progressive”

According to the New York Post:

A half-mile section of Washington Heights has been transformed into an open-air prescription drug bazaar, with brazen vendors illegally peddling painkillers, erectile dysfunction pills, and an array of other meds, The Post has learned.

The sprawling street pharmacy stretches across 10 square blocks, in and around West 179th to West 183rd streets and St. Nicholas Avenue with at least 20 vendors showcasing their wares in loose blister packs, boxes, and bottles strewn across dingy folding tables.

“Is it for an adult? You can take up to three a day until they’re all gone,” barked a vendor selling blister packs of the antibiotic amoxicillin for $5 a sheet.

A shopper who saw the pills chimed in with approval. “Those are really good! They’re powerful stuff. When there’s an infection, it cures it. When I give it to my grandson, I give him three a day!”

Amoxicillin was among the alarming cornucopia of pills available this week, including: erectile dysfunction meds Viagra and Cialis; Cataclofen Plus, for pain and inflammation; and antibiotic Ampicillin.

Some things:

  • This is third world shit.
  • Someone is going to die. There are reasons these drugs are controlled.
  • This is Zohran Mamdani’s New York City and his view for the world. No businesses run by any white people, but black market businesses run by third worlders.
  • By the way, this is what “equity” looks like to socialists. It is not to m=bring the world up, because that would be impossible. All those native cultures the Left is celebrating does not have the capacity or motivation to create a culture like the one in the United States.
  • The socialist movement is about hate of the United States and its destruction.
  • By the way, these drugs were all made in the United States.

They Don’t Have It!

Some things:

  • First off, medical funding should be completely left to the state. There is no reason why I, in California, should be paying for someone’s medical care in Illinois.
  • It’s way more than a billion dollars.
  • I want to see people in jail.

Dumbasses of the Day

Some things:

  • No one wants him to run except for Republicans. He has no chance.
  • He was fired from a failing news network. Trump ran a multi-billion dollar business. Lemon is an example of failure while Trump is an example of success.
  • This guy is accusing Trump of not listening? Has Don ever watched his own show?
  • No, he would not be a good president. He’s a moron.
  • As far as the money thing, all politicians say that.
  • As far as Trump not helping the working class people, only those with a 401K, 72% of the population have access to a 401K. Wouldn’t that mean he is helping a majority of working class people?
  • He’s not running. He has way too much baggage.

Episode 1227 – Illegal Aliens: The New Privileged Class

Good news for the Trump administration when it comes to inflation.

We are becoming two-tiered law system and, guess what, you are not in the upper tier.

And I don’t want to hear anything about affordability from California.

News

Here is some news:

  • Year-over-year inflation fell for the first time since January, dropping down to 3.5% in June, according to data released on Tuesday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. 
  • Jashanpreet Singh, a 21-year-old Indian national who federal authorities said was in the United States illegally, was sentenced Tuesday to four years and eight months in prison after pleading guilty to three felony counts of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence stemming from an October 2025 crash on Interstate 10 in San Bernardino County, California. Singh’s semitruck plowed into slow-moving traffic, killing three people and injuring several others, while dashcam video showed him never applying the brakes before impact.
  • Kaitlyn E. Tracey, 33, allegedly approached a group of teens while recording them on her cellphone before confronting them on the Point Pleasant Beach boardwalk during the Fourth of July holiday weekend.
    • A Canadian woman living in New Jersey was charged and later transferred to federal ICE custody after allegedly attacking a teenager on a boardwalk over pants bearing “Trump” and “ICE” messaging.
    • Tracey, a Canadian national who entered the U.S. on a passport in 2024, then allegedly struck one of the girls and recorded the confrontation, according to court documents reported by NJ.com.
  • Gov. Kathy Hochul slammed the brakes on New York’s data center boom Tuesday, handing China a gift-wrapped win in the global tech arms race.
    • A report stated she would sign an executive order that freezes state permitting for massive AI server farms. It halts new hyperscale data center approvals and orders state regulators to establish rules on energy use, water consumption, and other environmental impacts before any more projects move forward. Hochul framed it as consumer protection, saying she couldn’t sit by while server farms threaten to increase utility bills and drain New York’s water supply.

They Needed to Do That a Long Time Ago

According to the Daily Voice:

Some Taco Bell locations have temporarily stopped serving certain fresh ingredients amid a nationwide rise of cyclosporiasis cases, according to multiple reports, including People and Allrecipes. 

The reported menu changes come as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Friday, July 10, that it has received 843 confirmed domestic cases of cyclosporiasis across 31 states. 

The illness is caused by the microscopic Cyclospora parasite. The CDC said 86 people have been hospitalized, and no deaths have been reported.

People reported that some Taco Bell locations, including some in Metro Detroit, posted signs saying lettuce, pico de gallo, guacamole, and cilantro onion were unavailable.

Allrecipes reported that a paper sign at a Taco Bell drive-thru read, “We are currently unable to sell Lettuce, Cilantro, Onion, Pico de Gallo, and Guacamole due to a nationwide recall.” The image was posted by a Reddit user from Michigan.

Allrecipes also reported that neither the FDA nor USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service had issued recalls for those specific items. The outlet said it was unclear whether the ingredients were part of an internal recall by Taco Bell’s supplier.

I Smell a Nobel Prize in His Future!

According to the California Post:

Federal agents descended on the Irvine home of a teenager whose alleged science experiments sparked hazmat crews to swarm the residence over complaints of a strong chemical smell Wednesday.

Several blue tens and dozens of agents — from the FBI, Department of Justice, Environmental Protection Agency and Irvine Police Department — were spotted in the gated community as they investigated the home of 18-year-old Amalvin Fritz.

A judicial search warrant was being served at the location, according to the US Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California. It’s currently unclear what was seized from the home.

It’s the second time in two days agents were at the home, as FBI officials, hazardous material crews and the bomb squad were all at the property Tuesday after neighbors spotted three strange industrial barrels and reported a strange chemical odor.

The three barrels were allegedly empty and previously contained chemicals but were not confiscated during February’s investigation, according to CJ Ray, the family’s attorney.

Chemical mixtures along with formulas written on a whiteboard were discovered inside home, which prompted the FBI to bring in experts to investigate further.

No arrests were made in the February search.

Is This a Good Use of Money?

According to the New York Post:

Sacramento residents are bracing for tight supervision of what they throw in their trash as Gov. Gavin Newsom’s mandates require the city to lay invasive eyes on them.

Bin inspections are set to be deployed this month due to SB 1383, a law that requires local governments to take steps to reduce methane emissions caused by short-lived climate pollutants.

One of the key goals of the initiative is to see if homeowners are sorting their organic waste properly. City officials say they caught many sorting their trash into the wrong bin.

No fines will be issued, but residents will receive unsolicited feedback via a tag city workers place. Workers will wear high-visibility vests and badges as they peer through residents’ garbage.

Why Are There So Many Fires?

According to the California Post:

San Diego is forging ahead with plans for a sprawling new community featuring more than 5,100 affordable homes — despite fierce pushback from private landowners who warn the rezoning could slash the value of their property.

The massive Southwest Village development in Otay Mesa will span nearly 490 acres, most of it city-owned, and be built by Tri Pointe Homes.

The City Council has already signed off on the ambitious project, which will also include market-rate homes, a school, parks, 175,000 square feet of retail space and more than 200 acres of open space, according to project documents.

The proposal has received heat from nearby landowners, who say they were largely shut out of the planning process and denied a meaningful chance to weigh in before the project advanced.

The development would also require portions of the area to be rezoned because it overlaps with protected habitat. Tri Pointe is now working with federal wildlife officials to determine how the massive housing project can move forward without violating environmental laws, NBC San Diego reported.

Landowners are terrified that the city’s new lines on the map will kill future opportunities on their own turf. But supporters of the plan argue it would add housing units that San Diego very much needs.

Stop Paying These People!

According to the California Post:

Los Angeles City Council members earning nearly a quarter of a million dollars per year want to only meet one day per week as the city faces growing crises.

The council — whose base salaries start at $245,255 and can climb as high as $270,389 — voted 12–0 on June 30 in favor of putting on the November ballot a measure slashing the City Charter’s minimum requirement.

One member of the 15-member council, Monica Rodriguez, walked out in protest, while two others were absent for the vote.

One of those pushing the change, Katy Yaroslavsky, moaned she was always working — whether it was in City Hall, in her district or “doing dishes and vacuuming at home.”

But critics were quick to leap on the proposal. Councilwoman Rodriguez claimed her fellow members were just being lazy and saying it will be hated by the public.

The idea surfaced in early 2024, when Councilwoman Eunisses Hernandez suggested scaling back to one meeting a week and pointed to the LA County Board of Supervisors, which meets regularly on Tuesdays, as a possible model.

So Much for Affordability

According to the California Post:

California shoppers could soon be paying even more at the checkout line as a sweeping new state recycling measure threatens to send grocery prices soaring, with dairy manufacturers warning some businesses may be forced to shut down or flee the Golden State.

Senate Bill 54 is now entering its first phase of implementation, with companies expected to receive their first bills as early as next month, reported SFGATE.

The measure aims to reduce landfill waste by making manufacturers financially responsible for the packaging they sell after it is thrown away.

It charges companies impact fees on products they sell while also requiring them to phase out packaging that cannot be adequately reused, recycled or composted.

The dairy industry says it stands to be among the hardest hit because many of its products rely on packaging that does not currently meet the measure’s requirements.

CalRecycle, however, estimates the impact will be far smaller, projecting households will pay between $57 and $190 more annually based on data from the California Department of Finance.

Supporters say those added costs are outweighed by shifting the financial burden of packaging waste from taxpayers to the companies that produce it.

Episode 1226 – RIP, Lindsey!

Donald Trump appears to have learned his lesson when it comes to Iran. I wish he’d learn his lesson about the rest of the Middle East.

A California school has come up with an idea to solve climate change. Sorry guys, The Simpsons did it.

And Zohran Mamdani is trying to get all the white people out of New York.

Some News:

Here is some news:

  • Lindsey Graham, a 23-year US Senator, was 71 years old.
  • The United States continues to bomb Iran.
    • They have closed the straight of Hormuz to Iranian ships.
    • All other ships have to pay a toll to pass the straight.
  • A bipartisan push to make Daylight Saving Time permanent is heading for a chamber-wide vote after clearing a key House hurdle.
    • The House Rules Committee on Monday teed up a floor vote on the Sunshine Protection Act, which would allow states to enact Daylight Saving Time year-round — with an option to opt out. The committee approved the rule in a 6-4 vote.
    • The measure has the support of many coastal lawmakers and President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly urged Congress to make Daylight Saving Time permanent and end the twice-a-year ritual of changing clocks — a practice currently observed by every state except Hawaii and most of Arizona.

The Simpson’s Did It!

According to the Daily Wire:

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have proposed a method to “dim the sun” in hopes of reducing the looming effects of El Niño, a recent study revealed. 

As reports of stronger El Niños — the natural warming of the Pacific Ocean that affects global weather — by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) continue, researchers at UC San Diego have determined that damages from the phenomenon could cost the global economy trillions of dollars.

To combat this, researchers in the journal Science Advances have proposed an extremely far-fetched form of “solar geoengineering” known as “marine cloud brightening.”

Injecting these particles into the clouds would hypothetically bounce the rays of the sun out of the atmosphere, preventing the water from heating up, which creates stronger El Niños. 

While some researchers blame global warming for the increasing strength of El Niño, the World Meteorological Association said that “there is no evidence that climate change increases the frequency or intensity of El Niño events,” the New York Post reported.

The proposal from UC San Diego comes after a 2023 study they conducted involved two computer MCB simulations applied to two real El Niño events in 1997 and 2015, per the Post. The study found that aerosols released from an Australian bushfire brightened the clouds and hindered the effects of El Niño. The simulations run by the research team applied the same method to 1997 and 2015, which increased cooling and drying effects by 40%.

Co-author and University of Chicago postdoctoral researcher Jessica Wan stated that the aerosols would have to be “deployed continuously for an indefinite period of time,” according to the Post. 

As of now, there are no real-world plans to test out the far-fetched hypothesis.

They Don’t Want Them

According to the New York Post:

The City Council’s Italian Caucus demanded Mayor Zohran Mamdani amend his new immigrant enclaves map — which ignored Little Italy and other Italian-American areas of the five boroughs.

The caucus fumed Thursday over Mamdani’s map which didn’t list Italian enclaves — or big Irish and Jewish neighborhoods — but spotlighted 30 other areas, including Little Palestine, Koreatown, Little Pakistan and Little Odessa.

“You cannot tell the story of immigrant New York while airbrushing out one of the city’s most recognizable and historically significant immigrant communities,” the caucus said in a statement Thursday, calling the omission “incomplete at best and insulting at worst.”

The caucus said the Mamdani administration should work with historians and community groups so the next version of the map gives Italian‑Americans a fair shake.

A City Hall spokesperson said Wednesday that the map was designed to “highlight neighborhoods in New York City that have substantial foreign‑born populations from regions and countries around the world.”

The Italian Caucus pointed out Belmont in the Bronx, Bensonhurst and Dyker Heights in Brooklyn and Italian‑American pockets in Queens and Staten Island are also neighborhoods where Italian roots run deep.

None were mentioned in the map.

I Call BS

According to the Daily Wire:

Congressman Ro Khanna, the California Democrat considering a 2028 presidential bid, has spent the past week accusing Israeli settlers and soldiers of unlawfully detaining him and other Americans on an overseas trip.

On July 8th, Khanna joined a delegation organized by Breaking the Silence, a left-wing activist group known for its criticism of Israeli military operations and policies in Judea and Samaria, also known as the West Bank. The group attempted to visit Khirbet Zanuta, a disputed site in the South Hebron Hills that has become a flashpoint in legal battles over unauthorized Arab construction. Israeli authorities designated the area a closed military zone, requiring advance coordination before entry.

According to Israeli authorities, the delegation had entered a closed military zone without prior authorization and was stopped by civilian security personnel coordinating with military forces. Video released after the incident appears to show Israeli soldiers directing the group to wait for police.

Khanna has described the encounter in far more dramatic terms. During a Fox News interview, he claimed “the only reason we’re safe” was because U.S. Embassy official David Brownstein contacted senior Israeli officials.

Khanna has not publicly provided evidence that members of the delegation faced an imminent threat to their lives.

Khanna claimed that “Israeli settlers, brandishing American made M4s, detained me & other Americans on my trip to Palestine.”

Available footage from Khanna’s group shows armed local security personnel carrying rifles on slings, but does not appear to show weapons being drawn or pointed at members of the delegation.

Naomi Kahn of Regavim, an Israeli advocacy group that tracks illegal Arab building in Judea and Samaria, said Khanna used the situation as a publicity stunt.

This Is Equity

According to the New York Post:

The U.S. women’s national team won’t play a World Cup match until 2027, but it is still set to receive a major payday from this year’s big tournament.

The U.S. men’s national team earned $16 million from FIFA for reaching the round of 16 before being eliminated by Belgium in a 4-1 loss in Seattle. Under U.S. Soccer’s landmark equal pay collective bargaining agreements, that money will be shared with the women’s national team.

U.S. Soccer keeps 20 percent of the prize money. The remaining 80 percent is split evenly between the men’s and women’s player pools, meaning each team is set to receive $6.4 million from the USMNT’s run. Based on 26-player rosters, that comes out to roughly $246,153 per player.

The women’s share will not be paid immediately.

The USWNT has not yet qualified for the 2027 Women’s World Cup in Brazil, and the final roster will not be selected until closer to the tournament. Until then, the money owed to the women will sit in an interest-bearing account, with that interest also split between both player pools.

She’s Going to Retire

According to the New York Post:

Caitlin Clark’s season has been dominated by the headlines surrounding the physical play she’s faced.

Now, a group of United States lawmakers is trying to make its voices heard with the WNBA.

Led by Republican Study Committee Chairman Rep. August Pfluger (Texas), a cohort of congressional representatives wrote a letter to WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert over what they have called “repeated acts of unnecessary physical hostility and violence” toward the Fever star.

The 11 Republican lawmakers said Clark has faced aggression on the court and outside the court on social media, and it’s time for the league to do a better job officiating things in real time.

“Clark has been hip-checked, poked in the eye, and struck in the throat during games,” the letter read. “These incidents go far beyond routine physical play, yet the WNBA and its officiating have too often failed to address these unacceptable incidents and hold players accountable. Recently, a player even appeared to endorse violence against Clark in a social media post, further fueling concerns about the culture surrounding these incidents.

“In addition, concerning reports suggest that many of these attacks against Caitlin Clark may be racially motivated.”

Things came to a head on June 24 — and the ensuing days — when Clark and the Mercury’s Alyssa Thomas went for a loose ball, and as Clark went to the floor, she was hit in the throat.

Thomas was not called for a foul on the play. However, a day later, she was retroactively handed a flagrant 2 foul and a one-game suspension.

Episode 1225 – I Hate Lawyers!

The Federal Reserve releases a report that brings up a big surprise. Well, not really.

California needs to stop giving illegal aliens who cannot read licenses to drive 15 ton trucks.

And I hate lawyers!

Who Started the Affordability Crisis?

According to the New York Post:

A new Federal Reserve working paper found the record surge in illegal immigration during the Biden administration triggered higher home prices and rents.

The findings arrive as immigration remains a polarizing political issue. Republicans argue former President Joe Biden’s border policies strained housing and public resources, while Democrats say immigration helped ease labor shortages and supported economic growth.

The paper, published by the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, combines immigration court records with government administrative data to measure how the unprecedented wave of illegal immigration between 2021 and 2024 affected local labor and housing markets.

The authors caution the study is a preliminary draft circulated for professional comment and does not necessarily reflect the views of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas or the Federal Reserve System.

Again?!

According to the Post Millennial:

A Haitian illegal alien who was issued a Massachusetts Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) has been arrested after allegedly causing a semi-truck crash that killed a veteran Pennsylvania State Trooper, prompting US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to lodge an immigration detainer against him.

Michael Bon, a Haitian national, was arrested following the July 1 crash in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. Authorities allege Bon’s tractor-trailer struck Trooper Michael Pahira, who was inspecting another commercial vehicle along I-81 South. Pahira, a nearly 20-year veteran of the Pennsylvania State Police, later died from his injuries.

Bon has been charged with vehicular homicide and involuntary manslaughter. ICE lodged a detainer one day after his arrest, requesting that Pennsylvania authorities notify the agency before any potential release from custody.

According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Bon entered the United States after being released by the Biden administration in July 2024. He later applied for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) in October 2024, but DHS said that application “was never granted.” Despite that, Bon obtained a Massachusetts-issued Commercial Driver’s License, a fact DHS highlighted in announcing the immigration detainer.

Or You Could Arrest Them

According to the Post Millennial:

In the face of shootings over Independence Day weekend, Raleigh Mayor Janet Cowell has considered imposing a curfew for minors within city limits after several fights, illegal fireworks, and nine shootings rocked North Carolina’s capital. Cowell, who was elected mayor in 2024 to lead the city of more than 500,000 and ran on housing affordability and public safety, said the city needs accountability, Fox News reports. 

“As Mayor, I am grateful for the actions of the Raleigh Police officers in response to the situations of juvenile violence across the City on the night of July 4 and the morning of July 5,” the Cowell said. “Clearly, Raleigh is not exempt from the incidents of youth violence that are occurring across the country. We need to talk with the youth, their parents, schools, and the broader community to understand the root causes and to better coordinate strategies. One approach may be a youth curfew for those 17 years and under, which other cities in North Carolina have implemented. City leadership is exploring many approaches that we will discuss at tomorrow’s Council meeting.”

Raleigh Police said about 5,000 teenagers gathered in Brier Creek and another 5,000 gathered in Glenwood South, with roughly half of those in attendance coming from outside the city. Officers first responded around 10:05 p.m. Saturday to reports of a fight near a movie theater and surrounding businesses during what police described as a social media-organized “teen takeover.” The large fight was followed by gunfire, leaving one adult injured by a gunshot and another hurt by shattered glass. Police detained a juvenile who was found with a firearm, though investigators do not believe the teen was one of the shooters.

Additional violence unfolded throughout the night. Around 1:35 a.m. Sunday, officers responded to multiple shootings that left six people wounded, all of whom are expected to survive. About three hours later, at approximately 4:30 a.m., two more people were shot following a fight at a gas station. Both suffered non-life-threatening injuries. No arrests have been announced, and all of the shootings remain under investigation.

In a post on X Monday, Cowell described the teen takeovers as a “disturbing national trend” and thanked the Raleigh Police Department for restoring order, adding that city leaders and the broader community have work ahead to engage with young people and prevent similar incidents in the future.

How about throwing these kids in jail? How about throwing their parents in jail?

Why do they call them “teen takeovers” and not riots? Because all the teens are black.

Gentle Parenting Doesn’t Work

According to the New York Post:

A pregnant city special-ed teacher was violently kicked in the stomach by one of her students — then fired by officials who blamed her for the terrifying outburst, a shocking lawsuit claims. 

Then-kindergarten teacher Lauren Vitale, 31, was six months pregnant when she was attacked in January by one of her pupils, who has a documented history of violence, according to her Manhattan Supreme Court suit.

The special-needs kindergartner had been placed in the classroom at Staten Island’s PS 84 without giving Vitale any advance warning of her violent past — part of a troubling pattern by the adminstration of targeting the teacher, the suit says.

The child ended up spitting in Vitale’s face and kicking her in her pregnant belly — which resulted in the mom-to-be suffering from bleeding, low fetal movement and high blood pressure, according to court papers.

But instead of supporting Vitale over the assault, the school’s principal immediately blamed her for it, the lawsuit alleges.

Vitale, whose daughter is now 2 months old, said the alleged horrific experience was the climax of a years-long pattern of discrimination, hostile work environment and retaliation by education bosses against her.

Later in the article:

She said in her suit that she then felt especially targeted in early 2024 after she filed a union complaint over the placement of a different dangerous student in her classroom.

The child bit her and struck her with a curtain rod, Vitale’s lawsuit says.

In response to Vitale’s complaint, the principal called her to his office, labeled her a “whistleblower” and warned that she had “opened Pandora’s box,” court documents allege.

Then this past September, when Vitale was eight weeks pregnant, she privately shared her good news about the baby with the school’s guidance counselor — also a union rep — who she considered a friend, her suit says..

But the news was immediately leaked to the principal, who cornered her in her classroom and “badgered” her into confirming it minutes later, Vitale says in her suit. 

She was immediately slapped with a punitive Teacher Improvement Plan, the lawsuit claims.

Episode 1224 – Saving Democracy by Subverting Democracy!

Democrats are protecting democracy by subverting democracy…again.

Iran can’t seem to behave.

And when are these actors going to learn not to bash their own movies before those movies come out.

News

Here is some news:

  • Graham Platner is out as a Democratic senatorial candidate for Maine.
    • Democrats will choose another candidate (here we go again).
    • The pervert and Nazi has been accused of rape.
    • He left a message. Of course none of this was his fault.
  • We have started bombing the crap out of Iran again.
  • And today is day 4 of the Tyler Robinson preliminary hearing.
    • He’s the guy who shot Charlie Kirk.
    • The prosecution has introduced an entire timeline with video.
    • The guy is screwed. It’s not going to trial.

Dumbass of the Day

What do these movies have in common:

  • The live action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.
  • The Alcolyte.
  • Captain America.
  • Supergirl.

These are films that were undermined by their stars before they came out and the movies bombed.

Women in “The Odyssey”:

  • Penelope
  • Helenm
  • Clyemnestra
  • Nausicaa
  • Arete
  • Athena
  • Hera
  • Persephone
  • Calypso
  • Circe
  • Eurycleia
  • The Sirens
  • Skylla
  • Charybdis
  • Tyro
  • Antipoe
  • Alcmene
  • Jocasta
  • Chloris
  • Leda
  • Phaedra
  • Procris
  • Ariadne
  • Maera
  • Clymene

This movie is already getting a lot of hate simply from the previews (remember, no one has seen this movie yet).

  • Lupita Nyong’o being cast as Helen of Troy. Helen as having “white arms” implies a white Greek woman and that Nolan has prioritized diversity over historical or textual fidelity.
  • Elliot Page’s casting as Sinon, a warrior and cousin of Odysseus, has also become a flashpoint, with detractors framing this and the inclusion of rapper Travis Scott in an unknown role as evidence of “culture-war” or “identity politics” casting rather than story-driven choices.
  • Fans of classical history and “historical epics” have criticized the armor, helmets, ships, and general production design as anachronistic or more “comic book” than Bronze Age Greece.
  • Another recurring complaint is Nolan’s decision to use contemporary-sounding language in the dialogue instead of archaic or elevated speech that would mirror traditional translations of Homer.
  • The film is very dark.

So They Shouldn’t Know How to Speak

According to the New York Post:

Activists are pushing for Black English to be legitimized in preschool as a way to build children’s literacy skills in California.

The Black Californians United for Early Care & Education (BlackECE) is part of a movement to challenge “harmful language hierarchies and affirm Black English as a legitimate, rule-governed language rooted in Black history, culture, and community.”

The movement also seeks to “address how language bias shows up in early learning spaces–and how it can be dismantled.”

“I don’t want my son to walk into any room and feel like his voice is not valued or his perspective can’t be heard because he’s not saying it one way or the other,” the co-founder of BlackECE Ashley Williams told PBS.

She also remembered how speaking Black English is full of slangs and grammatical errors so it came with a lot of embarrassment.

BlackECE is a nonprofit organization centered around a 10-point policy plan that seeks to gain reparations and help Black children, families, and workers.

California released a plan promoting early dual language learning and calling on the state’s education system to support bilingual children in their development in 2020, but the advocacy group believes that Black vernacular should be included.

“We talk about multilinguals, but we don’t include Black children who may be African-American English speakers,” the Director of the Children’s Equity Project Xigrid Soto-Boykin said.

Williams also recalled her experiences in having to “talk white” and talking in her comfortable English and feeling insecure.

Episode 1223 – We Need to Start Paying Attention!

We just had Independence Day and it was great! But we also have all the wet blankets out there that Want to tear up the country on its birthday. Let’s listen to some of the blasphemy.

I keep telling you the Islamists are trying to take over and they’re saying telling us. I have an example.

And we will be changing the format of the podcast in the future. Let’s talk about it.

Is He A Dumbass Though?

There’s more than that:

  • Zohran Mamdani had the subways wrapped with the Iranian flag.
  • Islamists were climbing street lamps and tearing down American flags.
  • Two Leftists were trying to light an American flag on fire and were beaten up by a guy trying to stop them.
  • In Washington DC, a group of Leftists protested “250 years of exploitation, plunder, and terror.
  • In Newport Beach and Los Angeles, there were riots and looting.
  • In Minniapolis, they had a Somali independence day led by that beta-male mayor Jacob Frye.

They Hate You

A couple of things:

  • It is only immigrants who know how to be American and know what path America should take.
  • Anyone who was born here is a supremacist.
  • I wonder how many of those immigrants with him can speak English or on some sort of entitlement program.
  • This is a Democratic trick. They talk of division but everything he is saying is divisive. It’s always “us and them.” They are bad, evil, supremacists. They hate you. They didn’t want you here. It’s never you should feel blessed to be here.
  • I think Mamdani misread Thomas Paine. He also felt that people should be involved in a free economy.
  • This country isn’t an asylum for the persecuted. This country is a melting pot.
  • Poverty is a part of life.
  • As usual, he creates a new victim class.
  • He complains about the misery created by the landlords. Of course, that misery was created by his own policies.

BY the way, his wife decided to take off to Spain to attend an Islamist retreat.

According to the New York Post:

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s wife Rama Duwaji ditched America’s 250th anniversary, jetting off this week for an Islamic “spiritual wellness” retreat on the Spanish resort island of Mallorca ahead of the patriotic celebration, The Post has learned.

The Dallas-raised, Dubai-educated, Syrian-American artist – who has a long history of bashing the US — was spotted at Newark International Airport on Monday, boarding an eight-hour flight to Palma, Mallorca’s capital city in the Western Mediterranean.

She was heading to a sold-out retreat run by The Women’s Sanctuary. The 29-year-old illustrator and ceramist is the for-profit’s “artist in residence” and among the gathering’s hosts.

The “Plants Of The Quran” retreat costs $3,400 in US dollars for guests to attend. It began Wednesday and runs through Monday, and revolves around sacred flora mentioned in Islamic texts through art, botanical workshops, and spiritual reflection, according to the group’s website.

This Will Happen…A Lot!

According to the New York Post:

A Somalian flag that was raised outside of Buffalo’s City Hall to commemorate Somali Independence Day was stolen in an overnight heist, the city’s leftist mayor decried.

“The City of Buffalo’s flagpole in Niagara Square sustained damage after unknown vandals broke the access panel, cut the cable, and removed the Somali flag during the overnight hours of Wednesday, July 1,” Mayor Sean Ryan wrote on Facebook.

Ryan said the Buffalo Police Department was investigating the alleged vandalism after the city approved non-profit HEAL International to raise the white star, blue flag on July 1.

“The flag had been raised by an organization called Heal International in honor of Somalian Independence Day. Heal International has been raising the Somali flag at Niagara Square for at least the last four years,” Ryan said.

The mayor’s office shared that the “public use” flagpoles have flown banners of several countries and territories over the years, including Ukraine, Greece, Ireland, Puerto Rico, Italy and Bangladesh.

Episode 1222 – It’s Independence Day…for Somalia!

It’s almost Independence Day in the United States. You know what that means: We have to start celebrating Somalia.

Being woke is probably going to cost Alaska Airlines a pretty penny.

And Kamala Harris is cozying up to all the Islamist communists as she gets ready for another presidential run.

You Knew This Was Coming

According to the Daily Wire:

As America heads into the Fourth of July weekend marking America’s 250th birthday, the city hall of Columbus, Ohio, is celebrating differently.Columbus is hoisting the flag of Somalia, a foreign government, on Wednesday and celebrating its independence, according to a government department’s social media feed.“Happy Somali Independence Day! 💙 As we celebrate the unification of the Trust Territory of Somaliland and the State of Somaliland into the Somali Republic in 1960, City Hall will be raising the flag of Somalia,” the city’s Parks and Rec department said on social media. Praising Somalia was apparently so important to the department that it was its first post on X, formerly Twitter, since April 2019.

The department deleted the post moments after The Daily Wire asked Parks and Rec and City Hall about it. Neither department immediately replied to questions.

Columbus City Hall’s X account has celebrated Juneteenth and Pride Month, but said nothing about America’s 250th. In June 2023, the council passed a resolution to fly Somalia’s flag. In June 2025, it passed a resolution “To Recognize and Celebrate July 1st as Somali Independence Day in the City of Columbus.”

Columbus is home to the second-largest concentration of Somalis in the United States after Minnesota. The Daily Wire spent time in Columbus after Medicaid records showed some of the most flagrant red flags in the country. Those home-health firms turned out to be run largely by Somalis, to the point where one man said it was racist to ask about Medicaid spending because it was so closely intertwined with Somali identity.

Ohio’s Medicaid spending has doubled over the last decade, leading to a financial crisis.

Let’s be clear:

  • Somali is a shit hole.
  • Their independence led to perpetual civil war and genocide.
  • It’s a country run by warlords.
  • It’s a country of criminals and pirates.
  • The average IQ in Somalia is 61.
  • They have never given humanity anything.
  • They have never contributed to any society they have infected.

There is a reason everyone in Somali is trying to get out of Somalia. There is nothing to be proud of. If there was something awesome about Somalia, they would go back.

They Should Win

According to Fox News:

A federal appeals court revived a lawsuit brought by two former Alaska Airlines flight attendants who say they were fired after expressing religious objections to the airline’s support for the Equality Act, allowing their religious discrimination claims to proceed.

The Ninth Circuit ruled Wednesday there is sufficient evidence for a jury to determine whether Lacey Smith and Marli Brown were fired because of their religious beliefs, reviving the lawsuit they filed against the airline.

In early 2021, Alaska Airlines said it would support the proposed Equality Act on an online internal employee network.

The Equality Act, which was introduced by then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., sought to add sexual orientation and gender identity as protected classes in employment, housing, and other capacities under federal civil rights law. It passed the House in February 2021.

The airline asked employees to comment in an online forum for employees, and Smith asked a question, writing, “As a company, do you think it’s possible to regulate morality?”

In the same forum, Brown shared a comment conveying her sincere religious beliefs that the Equality Act would adversely affect women, girls, and people of faith.

Following their comments on the online forum, Smith and Brown were investigated and fired from their jobs, with Alaska Airlines saying that the comments from Smith and Brown were “discriminatory,” “hateful” and “offensive.”

I Pray She Runs

According to the Daily Wire:

Former Vice President Kamala Harris is courting New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and other prominent left-wing figures as she lays the groundwork for a possible 2028 presidential campaign, according to a new report.

Axios reported Wednesday that Harris privately called Mamdani last week to discuss the future of the Democratic Party and plans to continue the conversation in future meetings.

The call came just days after several democratic socialist candidates backed by Mamdani defeated incumbent Democrats in New York City congressional primaries, further cementing the mayor’s growing influence on the party’s left flank.

The outreach is part of a broader effort by Harris to repair and strengthen ties with far-left Democrats who were often skeptical of her during the 2024 presidential campaign. Harris has also held private meetings with progressive Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), as well as pro-Palestinian activists who sharply criticized the Biden-Harris administration’s handling of the Israel-Hamas conflict.

Among those Harris has met with is Abbas Alawieh, a co-founder of the Uncommitted Movement, a campaign that emerged during the 2024 Democratic primary to protest President Joe Biden’s support for Israel. Alawieh added that Harris initiated months of private conversations before requesting a recent meeting in Detroit, where he reiterated his opposition to U.S. taxpayer dollars being used “to target civilians or destroy entire communities.”

During the 2024 campaign, the Uncommitted Movement unsuccessfully pushed Harris to allow a Palestinian American to address the Democratic National Convention. Many activists ultimately declined to endorse her after concluding she had not broken sufficiently with Biden’s Middle East policy.

Wait, Who’s the Pedophile?

According to the Daily Wire:

Democratic Sacramento lawmakers, led by far-left senator Scott Wiener (D-CA), killed a bill that would have banned registered sex offenders from running for public office in California.

The legislation, AB 2753, would have expanded the list of felony convictions that disqualify people from running for elected office to include sexual assault and human trafficking. Current law covers felonies involving bribery (accepting, giving, or offering), embezzlement or theft of public funds, extortion, perjury, and conspiracy to commit any of those offenses.

On Tuesday, the State Senate’s Elections Committee rejected the proposal in a 2-1-2 vote, according to the local KCRA outlet. The push for the bill followed an attempt by registered sex offender Rene Campos to run for Fresno City Council. He pleaded no contest in 2018 to a misdemeanor charge of possessing child sexual abuse material, KCRA reported.

Voting yes were Democratic San Diego State Sen. Sabrina Cervantes and Republican State Sen. Steven Choi; the committee’s chairman, Democratic San Francisco State Sen. Scott Wiener, voted no, while two other Democrats abstained.

The proposal passed the State Assembly unanimously before reaching the State Senate, according to legislative records. 

Wiener, who is on track to replace former U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in Congress, blocked the legislation. 

“There are a lot of people who go in the sex offender registry for lower-level offenses, who I don’t know that everyone would believe they should be banned from running for office if they want to. This is potentially a very dangerous road we’re going down to say that ‘minor crimes’ are going to ban you for life for running for office,” Wiener told local ABC10 outlet. 

“We live in a democracy where people get to run for office, including people who have a lot of flaws,” he added.

This Is Who They Support

According to Fox News:

Minnesota officials, including Democrat Gov. Tim Walz, last month pardoned an illegal immigrant who was previously convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl and who was slated to be deported.

With the recommendation of the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission (CRC), the Minnesota Board of Pardons — led by Walz, state Attorney General Keith Ellison and state Chief Justice Natalie Hudson — granted a pardon for Laos national Tou Lue Vang, 42, at its June 10 meeting, according to a letter informing Vang of the decision from Carli Stark, the executive director of the state CRC.

The pardon essentially gives Vang a clean slate.

Vang was convicted in 2006 of first-degree criminal sexual conduct. Between 2002 and 2006, he repeatedly sexually assaulted the girl.

At one point, he offered her $10 to keep quiet about the abuse, according to DHS.

He pleaded guilty to first-degree criminal sexual conduct in a plea deal that spared him from going to prison.

“Governor Tim Walz’s decision to pardon an illegal alien convicted child rapist so he can remain in our country is disgusting,” DHS Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis said in a statement. “These are the criminal illegal aliens he and his Minnesota sanctuary politicians are protecting.”

Bis noted that Vang lost his legal status following his conviction.

When he was arrested on charges in 2005, Vang admitted to having sexual contact with the girl but blamed cultural norms in Thailand, according to the complaint obtained by the New York Times.

Episode 1220 – Don’t Blame Us for Your Dumb Policies!

France’s stupid policies have the politicians over there blaming the United States for the misery they are putting on their citizens.

Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey decides to celebrate Pride Month by allowing gay people to kill each other. I’ll explain.

And anti-Semitism is become a big problem in Australia. Guess who’s causing all the problems.

Maybe France Just Sucks?

According to the New York Post:

A Paris politician blamed Americans and US air conditioning for the record-breaking heatwave in Europe that has resulted in more than 1,300 excess deaths.

After US tourists mocked France over the lack of air conditioning across the country amid 104 degree temperatures, Audrey Pulvar, deputy mayor of Paris for international relations, claimed the situation was partly America’s fault.

“Dear American journalists and social media ‘influencers’: for days, some of you have been criticizing and making fun of Paris because the city does not have A/C in every room…OMG, this is so rich!” Pulvar wrote on social media.

“As the second-largest emitter of greenhouse gas emissions in the world, you bear a significant amount of responsibility for global warming and the consequences we, in France, are experiencing. Your cities, which are 90 per cent air conditioned, are not unrelated to this,” she added.

“So please, enough with the lecture. Just start doing your part,” the post concluded.

France has long-been resistant to air conditioning, with only 25% of households in the country equipped with such cooling units. 

The reticence to install AC has been attributed to concerns over the environment, the culture, and strict building codes — but the tides have begun changing as summers get hotter and hotter.   

The spat between Pulvar and Americans comes amid a record heatwave in Europe, with France experiencing a surge of deaths that have left morgues struggling to keep up. 

France has recorded at least 1,300 excess deaths since June 21, the public health agency said on Sunday, warning that the final figures could be higher.

Dumbasses of the Day

Suicidal Empathy

According to the Daily Caller:

Democrat Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey celebrated pride month by reversing a 38-year ban on adult bathhouses and sex venues that were closed during the 1980s AIDS epidemic.

Frey officially repealed the ban on Sunday after the Minneapolis City Council voted to repeal the ban on venues that allowed primarily gay adults to engage in sexual activity. The council repealed the ban in a 9-2 vote on Thursday, and Frey gave his stamp of approval days later, calling it the “best Pride weekend yet!!”

“Minneapolis stands with our LGBTQIA+ neighbors – we always will,” Frey said in a post on X. “That’s why I’m proud to have stood with members of the City Council and community advocates to sign the Bathhouse Repeal Ordinance and Pride in Policy package into law.”

These bathhouses and sex venues were originally closed in 1988 over concerns about hygiene and the spread of sexually transmitted diseases like AIDS. Notably, Dr. Anthony Fauci conducted research during the 80s and determined that the outbreaks were being caused by rampant sexual activity among gay men in these bathhouses.

Maybe Jacob Should Worry About This

According to the Post Millennial:

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey has been ordered by a Hennepin County court to increase the city’s police force to the minimum level required by law or face a civil trial if he fails to comply.

The order, issued on Thursday, requires Frey to ensure the Minneapolis Police Department reaches the mandated minimum of 731 sworn officers. The requirement stems from the Minneapolis City Chart, which states that the city must maintain 0.0017 sworn police officers for every resident. Based on the 2020 US Census population of roughly 430,000, that translates to a minimum of 731 officers.

The Minneapolis Police Department has remained below the threshold since before the death of George Floyd in 2020. At the time, the department had nearly 900 sworn officers. But after the unrest in the city that followed Floyd’s death, hundreds of officers left the department, reducing staffing to as few as 539 officers.

The Upper Midwest Law Center (UMLC) filed a lawsuit against Minneapolis in 2020, arguing that the city had failed to staff the legally required minimum. In 2022, the Minnesota Supreme Court determined that the city must comply with the requirement, but the city has still failed to comply. As a result, UMLC filed another lawsuit this year to require Frey to hire more officers. 

Last Thursday, a Hennepin County court issued an alternative writ of mandamus, requiring Frey to prove that the city has hired the legal minimum by January 4, 2027. Failure to do so would result in Frey facing a civil trial to see if he has a “valid excuse for nonperformance of this duty.”

These People Need to Go Home

According to the Daily Wire:

In the final hours of an elderly Jewish man’s life at Melbourne’s Alfred Hospital, someone plastered anti-Israel stickers on the wall beside his deathbed — a Star of David with a red line slashed through it. He died staring at it.

That stomach-churning detail is buried inside a sweeping exposé of rampant antisemitism festering inside Australian hospitals — and it lands like a gut punch just as a Sydney court handed a jaw-dropping legal victory to two nurses caught on camera bragging about murdering Israeli patients.

A judge this week tossed the viral video of Ahmad Nadir, 28, and Sarah Abu Lebdeh, 27 — the Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital night-shift nurses who told Israeli influencer Max Veifer on ChatRoulette that they wouldn’t just refuse Jewish patients, they’d kill them. Nadir punctuated the point with a slow throat-slitting gesture and boasted about sending Israelis to hell.

Gone. Inadmissible. Because nobody asked their permission to record them.

Judge Michael McHugh of Sydney’s Downing Centre District Court acknowledged the footage was “at the very least likely highly disturbing to right-minded people” — then tossed it anyway, citing privacy concerns. The pair still face trial August 31, but without their own recorded words, prosecutors are fighting with both hands tied behind their backs.

The court bombshell arrives against a backdrop of documented, systemic Jew-hatred spreading through Australian healthcare like an infection since the October 7 Hamas massacre.

Doctors and nurses have shown up to work wearing “From the river to the sea” insignia. Hospital corridors and toilet stalls have been wallpapered with anti-Israel stickers. A Jewish ICU nurse quit after more than a decade on the job because management refused to act. A Jewish woman receiving cancer treatment suspects a nurse deliberately botched her IV four times, leaving her bruised for weeks — only connecting the dots after the Bankstown nurses story broke.

This Should be Bigger News

According to the Daily Wire:

Doctors in Israel just pulled off something that addiction specialists have been chasing for decades — and it didn’t require a single scalpel.

In a jaw-dropping medical first, physicians at Rambam Health Care Campus in Haifa used focused sound wave technology to essentially switch off a patient’s opioid addiction. In less time than it takes to watch a sitcom, a man who had been swallowing roughly 130 pills a day walked away craving zero.

The patient, identified only as H., is a family man in his forties who originally hurt his neck years ago. Doctors prescribed opioids for the pain. The pain eventually faded — but the addiction didn’t. He was trapped, needing the drug just to feel normal and function day-to-day.

That’s when Rambam’s team stepped in with technology developed by Israeli firm Insightec. Using MRI-guided ultrasound waves, physicians targeted the nucleus accumbens — the brain’s pleasure and reward hub — and modulated its electrical activity without cutting, burning, or destroying a single cell. No surgery. No anesthesia. No recovery room.

Within a week, H. tested completely clean. His self-reported craving level: zero out of ten. But the surprises didn’t stop there. The man who used to smoke three packs of cigarettes daily nearly quit cold turkey. His desire for alcohol vanished too. The treatment essentially hit the reset button on his entire reward system.

Researchers call it nothing less than a breakthrough — and the timing couldn’t be more critical for the United States.

Episode 1221 – You Win Some, You Lose Some, I Guess

The Supreme Court has been busy. Let us take a look at the two major ruling released yesterday, especially the complete misread of what the XIV Amendment.

A Really Bad Ruling

According to the Daily Wire:

The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday permanently blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order seeking to restrict birthright citizenship, dealing a significant blow to his immigration agenda and preventing a sweeping overhaul of who qualifies for U.S. citizenship.

In a landmark ruling authored by Chief Justice John Roberts, the Supreme Court held that children born in the United States to parents unlawfully or temporarily present are “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States and are citizens at birth under the Fourteenth Amendment’s Citizenship Clause.

“Citizenship, then and now, was the right to have rights — to freely participate in our political community. The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to ‘every free-born person in this land,’” Roberts wrote. “We keep that promise today.”

Justice Brett Kavanaugh concurred in part and dissented in part. He disagreed with the court’s holding that Trump’s executive order violated the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution. Instead, he argued that the order violated other federal statutes, saying only Congress can enact new exceptions to birthright citizenship for children born to illegal immigrants.

Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and Neil Gorsuch dissented.

Clarence Thomas wrote in his Dissent:

“The court today takes the extraordinary step of holding facially unconstitutional the President’s Order excluding from citizenship the children of foreign temporary visitors and illegal aliens. In doing so, the court adds to the sad history of the Fourteenth Amendment, which was designed and understood to secure equal rights for the freed blacks but has instead been repurposed for political projects that the Reconstruction Congress did not support.”

Thomas argued that the 14th Amendment was designed to apply to freed slaves and their children, who owed no allegiances to foreign countries. 

“The same could not be said for the children of foreign temporary visitors. Foreign temporary visitors were attached to their home country, lacked similar bonds to this country, and would not be called upon in time of war. Americans, consistent with their settler ethos, believed that citizens were the people who called a place home.”

“I am not sure that today’s opinion will stand the test of time. The Citizenship Clause ‘added greatly to the dignity and glory of American citizenship. Today’s opinion devalues that citizenship.”

Samuel Alito also added to the dissent:

“As interpreted by the court today, the Fourteenth Amendment confers citizenship on virtually everyone who happens to be born in this country, including the children of ‘birth tourists,’ women who come here solely for the purpose of giving birth to a child and then promptly return home. Careful analysis of the text of the Fourteenth Amendment and the process that led to its adoption shows that it does not degrade the concept of United States citizenship in this way. Instead, the Fourteenth Amendment confers citizenship on only those children who, at birth, owe allegiance solely to this country.

“The court’s interpretation preserves a powerful incentive to enter or remain in this country illegally. Immigrants naturally prefer affluent countries where economic opportunities are available. Other than Canada, the United States will be the only affluent nation where birth alone is enough to establish citizenship.”

https://www.dailywire.com/news/clarence-thomas-torches-scotus-decision-on-birthright-citizenship

Response From the Right

The Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship decision is wrong, dangerous, and disastrous for American sovereignty and the American people. If we can’t fix it with ordinary legislation, then we must do what the Constitution commands in moments of national crisis: We must amend the Constitution and restore American citizenship. We must again put “We the People” first. The Supreme Court’s decision constitutionalizing unlimited birthright citizenship for the children of illegal aliens and temporarily present aliens is wrong—and disastrous for our sovereignty and the future of our republic. The decision exposes America to grave national security risks and threatens to erode the integrity of the core of American self-government: citizenship. Citizenship is more than paperwork issued by the government. It is more than a bureaucratic label that grants access to government programs. Citizenship is the covenantal bond between a nation and its people.

Douglas Mackey, who was targeted by the Biden administration for a meme tweeted:

The Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship decision is a bigger disaster than expected. Roberts and Barrett have completely sold out our birthright. The Court has ruled that an Act of Congress CANNOT overturn Birthright Citizenship, only a Constitutional Amendment. Since it’s impossible to seal off the borders perfectly and indefinitely, this ruling dissolves the United States as we know it. It’s the beginning of the end of the Republic unless and until we get a new Supreme Court to overturn this disastrous decision (like Roe v. Wade was eventually overturned).

Finally, the best for last, Donald Trump congratulated Xi Jinping:

Here’s What I Think

Some things:

  • This is a complete disaster for the Supreme Court.
  • It is a complete misreading of the XIV Amendment.
  • Context matters. The writers of the XIV Amendment stated that aliens were not automatically citizens. Read the statement from above.
  • The Court stated that the legal status of the parents is irrelevant. That’s horse pucky. Diplomats who have a child while in the United States determine whether that kid is a citizen.
  • Entering the United States is illegal and shows that the do not regard themselves a “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States.
  • Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito were right:
    • This devalues citizenship.
    • This opens the country to foreign actors that have the strategy of undermining the country through elections and politics.
    • It paves the way for birth tourism
  • Justice Kavanaugh was also right and wrong.
    • He was wrong in that the Constitution and the context were made very clear.
    • He’s right that Congress can definitely make laws that better define the amendment.
    • The question is would Congress make such a law.
  • The ruling judges were wrong.
    • They ignored what the words of the Constitution said.
    • They completely ignored why the amendment was written.
    • They are cowards.

There is good news though:

At Least They Got This One Right

According to the Daily Wire:

The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that states have the constitutional power to ban men from women’s sports, dealing another blow to the transgender movement. 

In a ruling authored by Justice Brett Kavanaugh and joined by the other conservative justices, the Supreme Court held that Title IX  allows schools to determine eligibility for women’s and girls’ sports teams based on biological sex. Liberal Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson agreed with parts of the majority opinion and dissented on other parts.

Justice Kavanaugh wrote:

“They may determine eligibility for women’s and girls’ sports based on biological sex. The Constitution and Title IX do not require an overhaul of women’s and girls’ sports throughout America.”

Clarence Thomas was a little more bitter about having to weigh in on this:

“Men and boys with gender dysphoria are not women or girls, even if they believe that they are. Sex is an immutable ‘biological’ characteristic.

“[I]t is binary; and ‘man’ and ‘woman,’ ‘boy’ and ‘girl,’ are the terms that correspond to adults and children of each sex,” he stressed. “To use language to obscure reality—to show ‘indifference regarding the truth’— is to lie to the public and cease to treat our fellow citizens ‘as equal[s].’“

“A man does not have a legal right to compete against women just because he believes that he is a woman. The class of people who claim transgender status could more accurately be described as people who are experiencing ‘gender dysphoria,’ which is not a ‘discrete group.’”

Episode 1219 – Nope, They Don’t Belong Here!

The Iran cease fire has, shockingly, ended because Iran cannot control themselves.

It seems that people have finally taken the red pill when it comes to Islam. It’s about time. I have an excellent book people should read if the have any doubts or misunderstanding about Islam not being a religion of peace.

And I have another piece of evidence that the Left is the party of destruction.

Hang Them From a Yardarm!

According to Fox News:

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum vowed “full” prosecution Saturday for vandals who allegedly slashed a 350-foot long gash into the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and defaced the area with a slew of anti-Trump graffiti.

“When people are attacking it [the Reflecting Pool], it is like an attack on our country,” Burgum said. “These are our most sacred monuments, and they [the perpetrators] are gonna be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.”

Burgum discussed the damage and the Trump administration’s response to it during a “Fox & Friends Weekend” appearance, revealing that authorities have made seven arrests, issued multiple citations and filed 18 police reports in connection with the vandalism.

According to Burgum, the damage extended roughly 350 feet along the pool’s industrial rubber liner, which he said investigators believe was cut with a box cutter.

Images show some of the anti-Trump markings the vandals left behind, including “8647,” interpreted by many as a call to violence or a call to remove the president.

Later in the article:

He said more than 50 parks and circles have been restored, 48 monuments repaired, 22 fountains returned to service and roughly 1,700 lights fixed throughout the National Mall.

Fencing now surrounds the Reflecting Pool amid an investigation into the damage.

Burgum said the fence was installed in part to protect the pool and in preparation for July 4 festivities, which will include fireworks on either side of the monument.

Well It’s About Time Trump Figured That Out!

According to Fox News:

An Iranian lawmaker warned Sunday that Tehran will continue to control the Strait of Hormuz, declaring that other nations must submit to Iran’s rules.

“We unequivocally support the ever-victorious Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ decisive action against the American enemy and the assertion of Iranian sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz,” Ebrahim Rezaei, spokesperson for the Parliament’s Foreign Policy and National Security Commission, said in a post shared on X.

“The Strait of Hormuz will not return to its previous state, and others have no choice but to submit to Iran’s directives in the Strait,” he added.

Rezaei’s remarks came after President Donald Trump said on June 27 that the U.S. military would “complete the job” if Tehran did not comply with the ceasefire agreement.

The interim Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Tehran and Washington includes provisions governing control of the Strait of Hormuz intended to guarantee toll-free passage for vessels for a 60-day period.

Iran has been busy and not in a good way:

  • Iran has been threatening the United States.
  • They have attacked Kuwait, Qatar, and Bahrain. Their goal was to hit American bases.
  • They maintain they are in charge of the Straight of Hormuz.
  • They have attack a cargo ship from Singapore.

The United States has had enough. We have decided to do what he do best: bomb the ever-loving crap out of them.

Donald Trump released a statement from Truth Social:

A Muslim is someone who follows the religion of Islam, while an Islamist is someone who treats Islam as a political ideology and seeks to shape government and society according to their vision of Islamic rules.

What “Muslim” Means

  • A Muslim is simply a person who believes in and identifies with the religion of Islam.calloflove
  • Muslims range widely in belief and practice, from very liberal to very conservative, and many treat Islam primarily as a personal faith and cultural identity rather than a political program.reddit+1
  • Being Muslim does not automatically imply any particular political position or attitude toward secular democracy or law.philosproject

What “Islamist” Means

  • An Islamist is someone who believes that Islam should directly govern politics, law, and public life, and who treats Islam as a comprehensive political ideology.washingtoninstitute+2
  • Islamism usually involves advocating an “Islamic state” or legal system based on their strict interpretation of Islamic principles, often in tension with liberal democratic values and individual rights.wikipedia+1
  • Many analyses stress that Islamism is not simply greater religious piety but a modern ideological project that seeks power and control over society, sometimes justifying coercion or violence to achieve these goals.washingtoninstitute+1

Relationship Between Muslims and Islamists

  • Most Muslims are not Islamists; they practice Islam as a religion without seeking to impose a single political model on everyone.
  • Some Muslims are Islamists, in the sense that they say their religious beliefs require them to push for Islamic law and governance; however, this is a subset, not the majority.
  • Conflating “Muslim” with “Islamist” leads to misunderstanding and stigma because it treats ordinary religious believers as if they were adherents of a radical or hardline political ideology.

A Simple Way To Keep Them Straight

  • “Muslim”: a follower of the religion of Islam (analogous to “Christian,” “Jew,” etc.).calloflove
  • “Islamist”: someone who wants Islam (as they interpret it) to structure the political system and laws, often in a strict or exclusionary way.wikipedia+2
