Episode 1093 – It’s Time to Make Some Arrests!

Donald Trump signs a couple of big bills into laws. More wins.

Late night television loses a “celebrated icon.” At least that’s what the media is calling him.

And another conspiracy theory sounds like it is true. I have some ideas on what we need to do.

News

Here is some news:

  • President Trump is suing The Wall Street Journal for libel following a report on his alleged relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and has now called for the release of related grand jury testimony.
  • The House passed the GENIUS Act Thursday in a 308-122 vote, with more than 100 Democrats joining most Republicans to advance the legislation. The bill, which establishes the first federal regulatory framework for stablecoins, is expected to be signed into law as early as today at a White House ceremony.
    • stablecoin is a type of cryptocurrency designed to maintain a stable value by pegging its price to an external reference asset, such as a fiat currency (like the U.S. dollar), a commodity (such as gold), or another financial instrument.
  • President Donald Trump has signed a bill enacting $9 billion in federal spending cuts, primarily targeting public broadcasting (including PBS and NPR) and foreign aid initiatives.
    • About $1.1 billion is eliminated for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which includes funding for PBS, NPR, and their affiliates.
    • Nearly $8 billion is cut from a range of foreign aid programs, primarily those operated by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
    • Vote margins: The House approved the bill 216–213, with all Democrats and two Republicans voting against it. The Senate passed its version 51–48, largely along party lines.
    • The Senate removed a proposed $400 million cut to the global PEPFAR AIDS program, softening the total from Trump’s original $9.4 billion proposal to $9 billion.

Yeah, It Was Trump

According to the Daily Wire:

CBS will pull the plug on late-night comedian Stephen Colbert’s “The Late Show” next year in a “purely financial decision,” the network announced on Thursday.

Colbert’s late-night comedy news show will air its final episode in May 2026, according to a statement released by CBS. The announcement marked the end of a nearly 11-year run Colbert has had hosting “The Late Show,” which first began in 1993 under former host David Letterman.

The network said that it is scrapping “The Late Show” franchise and will not move on to another host after Colbert.

“We consider Stephen Colbert irreplaceable and will retire ‘THE LATE SHOW’ franchise at that time. We are proud that Stephen called CBS home. He and the broadcast will be remembered in the pantheon of greats that graced late night television,” CBS said in a statement.

“This is purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night. It is not related in any way to the show’s performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount,” it continued.

Colbert announced the news from his host chair at the top of his Thursday episode.

Then, he did three segments with Adam Schiff. Yeah, I wonder why he got cancelled.

Year/SeasonAvg. Nightly Viewers
2015–2016~2.5–3 million
2016–20173.2+ million
2017–20183.1 million
20183.81 million
2019~3.0 million
2020~2.9 million
2021~2.8 million
2022~2.7 million
2023~2.6 million
2024 (Q1)2.59 million
2025 (Q2)2.42 million

Along with the rating cratering, the show is losing $40 million a year (might have to do with 200 people working on it).

The Gutfeld! show, which the media doesn’t consider late night, is averaging a million more viewers.

That doesn’t matter. The media knows who to blame. How we blame Trump.

So boring.

Someone Needs to Go to Prison

This was last week during questioning about who knew Joe Biden was senile:

All these people should be given immunity so they have to testify.

But the corruption goes much deeper. According to the Daily Wire:

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified documents Friday revealing that the Obama administration changed intelligence assessments after the 2016 election to create a narrative of Russian interference, despite earlier intelligence community findings that Russia “did not impact” the election through cyber activities.

The intelligence community concluded before the election that Russia was “probably not trying … to influence the election by using cyber means,” according to the declassified records obtained by Fox News. However, following Trump’s unexpected victory over Hillary Clinton, their tone appeared to have changed.

“On Dec 8, 2016, IC officials prepared an assessment for the President’s Daily Brief, finding that Russia ‘did not impact recent U.S. election results’ by conducting cyber attacks on infrastructure,” Gabbard wrote in a thread on X. “Before it could reach the President, it was abruptly pulled ‘based on new guidance.’ This key intelligence assessment was never published.”

The presidential brief prepared for President Obama on December 8, 2016, stated: “We assess that Russian and criminal actors did not impact recent US election results by conducting malicious cyber activities against election infrastructure,” noting that any Russian activities “probably were intended to cause psychological effects, such as undermining the credibility of the election process and candidates.”

The brief concluded that it was “highly unlikely” Russian interference “would have resulted in altering any state’s official vote result.”

“Criminal activity also failed to reach the scale and sophistication necessary to change election outcomes,” it stated.

The FBI raised immediate objections to the brief and requested that its publication be delayed until the bureau could address its concerns. Under then-Director James Comey, the FBI drafted a formal “dissent” to the original briefing.

Subsequently, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence postponed internal publication of the Presidential Daily Brief, citing “new guidance” as the reason for the delay.

Just one day later, on December 9, a meeting was called in the White House Situation Room to discuss Russian election interference with top officials, including then-CIA Director John Brennan, then-National Security Advisor Susan Rice, then-Secretary of State John Kerry, and then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch.

Following this meeting, then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper threw out the old analysis and tasked intelligence leaders with crafting a new assessment “per the president’s request,” detailing “tools Moscow used and actions it took to influence the 2016 election.”

Gabbard revealed: “According to whistleblower emails shared with us today, we know Clapper and Brennan used the baseless discredited Steele Dossier as a source to push this false narrative in the intelligence assessment.”

Intelligence sources told Fox News the new report “was based on information that was known by those involved to be manufactured i.e. the Steele Dossier or deemed as not credible,” and the CIA had previously dismissed it as filled with “internet rumor[s].”

By January 6, 2017, a new Intelligence Community Assessment was released that “directly contradicted the IC assessments that were made throughout the previous six months,” the ODNI office told Fox News.

Intelligence officials told Fox News they consider the assessment to have been blatantly “politicized” after it “suppressed intelligence from before and after the election showing Russia lacked intent and capability to hack the 2016 election.”

“The information we are releasing today clearly shows there was a treasonous conspiracy in 2016 committed by officials at the highest level of our government,” Gabbard told Fox News. “Their goal was to subvert the will of the American people and enact what was essentially a years-long coup with the objective of trying to usurp the President from fulfilling the mandate bestowed upon him by the American people.”

“No matter how powerful, every person involved in this conspiracy must be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, to ensure nothing like this ever happens again,” Gabbard said. “The American people’s faith and trust in our democratic republic and therefore the future of our nation depends on it.”

Gabbard concluded: “As such, I am providing all documents to the Department of Justice to deliver the accountability that President Trump, his family, and the American people deserve.”

Someone over the last 15 years needs to be arrested, perp-walked, tried, convicted, and serve the rest of their lives in prison.

Episode 1092 – The Threat is Real and Growing!

I need to create a new segment. We are going to try it out today!

Mexico wants to make some money off the death of one of their citizens illegally in the country. Let’s talk about why that’s not going to work.

And the insurgency by radical Islam is growing and we are doing nothing about it.

Jasmine Crockett’s Quote of the Day!

A couple of things.

  • Not a fan of gerrymandering.
  • Majority minority and it is a solid red state?
  • She wants to run for Senate.
  • Democrats did the same thing in New York and California.

This Ain’t Going Anywhere

According to ABC7 News:

Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum on Tuesday said her administration was considering the possibility of filing a legal complaint over the death of a migrant who fell to his death during an immigration raid at a cannabis farm in Camarillo.

Jaime Alanís Garcia was hospitalized and later died after falling off a roof during an Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid in Camarillo.

Garcia was not in custody. He was on top of a roof of a greenhouse and fell while he was trying to get away from ICE.

“Jaime was not just a farmworker, he was a provider, and a human being who deserved dignity. His death is not an isolated tragedy. It is the result of a targeted raid at Glass House Farms. Workers were met not with protection, but with chaos and fear. Some were detained. Others were traumatized. Jaime lost his life,” the family posted on social media.

There were a few reasons for the raid:

  • The entire farm was run by illegal aliens.
  • It was a pot farm which is illegal federally and illegal in Mexico.
  • Roman Izquierdo (Mexico): Convictions for kidnapping, attempted rape, and attempted child molestation; previously deported in 2006
  • Juan Duarte-Velasquez (Mexico): Convicted of rape and DUI
  • Jose Orellana (El Salvador): Convicted of DUI and hit-and-run
  • Adriana Gonzalez-Gonzalez (Mexico): Convicted three times for burglary and DUI
  • 361 illegal aliens were arrested.
  • 14 under age children illegally in this country were arrested and probably trafficked. 10 of the children were unaccompanied.

Federal agents clashed with protesters during the immigration raid at the farm in Ventura County, one of at least two large-scale raids in Southern California on July 10.

Garcia’s family said he fell about 30 feet off a building while he was possibly trying to run from federal agents. Garcia suffered a broken neck and skull.

“We are supporting the family, we are in contact with them, and we’re also exploring the possibility of filing a complaint (in the U.S.) because this is unacceptable,” Sheinbaum said at a Tuesday press conference. “The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is currently reviewing the matter. It is very unfortunate that this happened. All our solidarity and support go to the family, and there must not be another case like this one. That’s why the complaint must be filed in the courts over there.”

We should probably file a complaint about those people being in the country in the first place.

The Department of Homeland Security said he was not being pursued by law enforcement when he fell.

“This man was not in and has not been in CBP or ICE custody. Although he was not being pursued by law enforcement, this individual climbed up to the roof of a green house and fell 30 feet,” said DHS Public Affairs Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “CBP immediately called a medivac to the scene to get him care as quickly as possible.”

Since June 6, 435 people have been repatriated from the U.S. to Mexico. Between Jan. 20 and July 14, 1,427 people have been deported to Mexico “specifically due to raids,” Sheinbaum said.

Including all repatriations to Mexico during that period, the total is 75,341 people: 68,790 Mexican nationals and 6,551 foreigners.

Racism Is Alive and Well

This is the fourth time she has been called out for racial statements. She once got called out by a black man.

It just shows how casually anti-white racism is used by the Left and CNN supports it.

White people are not suppose to call this out because we are not allowed. Why? We’re racist if we don’t acknowledge the pain of the other races because slavery was legal 140 years ago.

The problem the Left has is we are getting over the white guilt.

He Should Be Happy He’s Still Alive

According to Reduxx:

A trans-identified male serving 40 years for a brutal 2013 murder is suing the Kentucky Department of Corrections over a new law banning public funding for cross-sex hormones and surgeries. Matthew Smith, who now goes by the name Maddilyn Marcum, was convicted of stabbing Eric Schreiber 72 times and slitting his throat.

The class-action lawsuit was filed July 14 by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Kentucky and, in addition to Smith, represents 67 other transgender inmates who will no longer receive hormones or surgeries on the public dime following the passage of a bill prohibiting taxpayer funds from being used for “gender-affirming care.”

Senate Bill 2 (SB-2), which was signed into law at the end of March, relegates medical “gender” interventions to “cosmetic service or elective procedure[s].”

The bill defines unnecessary interventions as “any procedure, treatment, or surgery to enhance or alter the appearance of any area of the head, neck, and body, including… [p]rescribing or administering cross-sex hormones in amounts greater than would normally be produced endogenously in a healthy person of the same age and sex.”

SB-2 further states that “public funds shall not be directly or indirectly used, granted, paid, or distributed for the purpose of providing a cosmetic or elective procedure to an inmate in a correctional facility.” The law came into effect on June 27 this year.

Representing the 68 convicted criminals, the ACLU argues that “reducing, terminating, or withholding HRT care violates the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution.” The Eighth Amendment bars “cruel and unusual punishment” of incarcerated inmates, while the Fourteenth Amendment – instituted to address the treatment of those who were formerly enslaved – prevents states from infringing on citizens’ privileges without due process.

According to the complaint, Smith was given a diagnosis of gender dysphoria in 2009, at which point he began taking “estrogen and anti-androgens to feminize the body” in the four years leading up to the crime for which he is incarcerated. The ACLU refers to gender dysphoria as a “serious medical condition,” citing Standards of Care created by the controversial activist group the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH).

They Just Can’t Help Themselves

According to Grok:

The X post by Libs of TikTok highlights a concerning incident involving Zayn Edward Arcand, a 19-year-old from Iron Mountain, Michigan, who was arrested for allegedly attempting to burn down the Dickinson County Republican Committee headquarters with a Molotov cocktail.

This act of violence is part of a broader pattern of political extremism, as Arcand admitted to the act as a message against perceived corruption, reflecting a dangerous intersection of personal identity and political ideology.

Arcand’s self-identification as “genderfluid, polyamorous sometimes female” underscores a complex personal identity that has been thrust into the public eye due to the criminal act. This incident raises questions about the mental health and stability of individuals who engage in such extreme behaviors, especially when their personal identities are publicly scrutinized.

The event occurred on July 12, 2025, and has been met with strong condemnation from political figures, such as Michigan Republican Party Chair Jim Runestad, who labeled Arcand as “a liberal Antifa scumbag.”

This reaction points to a polarized political climate where acts of violence are quickly attributed to broader ideological conflicts, potentially overshadowing the individual’s mental health issues. The incident also aligns with broader discussions on the rise of political violence and the need for mental health interventions, as evidenced by increasing concerns about violence against marginalized communities, such as the transgender community in Pakistan, reported around the same time.

Episode 1089 – Are Democrats Defending Child Slave Labor?

The Los Angeles Times and the media have made fools of themselves once again. This time, they seem to be lying to protect slavery and child exploitation.

Let’s see what they are saying.

Time to Defend Slave Labor

According to the L.A. Times:

The crowd outside Glass House Farms in Camarillo in the wake of Thursday’s chaotic immigration sweep was a strange mix.

There were vocal protesters hurling insults and sometimes water bottles at federal agents, and there were anxious friends and family of those who work at Glass House, a huge cannabis operation. Then there were curious bystanders like Mike Elliott, a Camarillo resident who voted for President Trump and stopped to see what was happening, saying he wanted to bear witness. Also on hand was Oxnard native Christina Muñoz, who said she brought her 2-year-old son, 5-month-old daughter and her mom in hopes of getting a glimpse of her husband, a member of the National Guard whom she hadn’t seen in 30 days.

Federal agents raided two Glass House Farms sites on Thursday, said Maria Navarro, an Oxnard policy advocate for the Central Coast Alliance United for a Sustainable Economy (CAUSE). The organization was alerted at 10:20 a.m. that sweeps were happening at both California locations of the company, in Carpinteria and Camarillo.

She hurried to the Camarillo site, where she came upon a tense scene, with protesters gathering and family members of workers trying to pick up their loved ones. But federal agents had already closed off access to the worksite. More and more people arrived, and Navarro said activists were trying to prevent trucks full of detainees from leaving.

At the east entrance to the Camarillo facility, amid lush fields of blooming bush beans, the action started about 10 a.m. when federal agents entered the facility. Protesters and worried family began arriving soon afterward, and by 2:30 p.m., a line of about 30 agents, including National Guard members, was barricading nearby Laguna Road.

The growing crowd was kept at least a quarter of a mile away from the facility. Protesters said that some people among the crowd had been detained. Jonathan Caravello, a philosophy professor at Cal State Channel Islands, was arrested, according to activist Angelmarie Taylor, who said she was one of his students and had accompanied him to the protest.

Taylor claimed Caravello was arrested as he tried to help a man in a wheelchair when agents were pushing the crowd to move back.

She said he and another individual “were piled on by multiple agents all at once” before being taken behind a line of agents to where several vehicles stood, “and we have no idea now where they are.”

As the sweep was underway, 24-year-old Cesar Ortiz spoke to a Times photographer outside Glass House Farms.

He said he had a brother inside the facility who had only begun working there a week ago.

“They are taking everyone and the truth is it’s not right because these people come to work, struggle every day, to earn for bread every day.

“There are no narcos here,” he said, “no one is armed here and they come fully armed, full of military personnel.”

Ortiz said he had been in communication with his brother, who he feared would be deported. He said authorities had his brother in a container. People “are [choking] in there with the air, without air-conditioned air.”

He also had a message for Trump: “We all have a right to come here and work. Here, we all have a dream, we have to give it our all.”

Marc Cohodes, an investor and famed short-seller who has invested in Glass House, called the raid “beyond outrageous.” He added that Glass House is “the largest cannabis cultivator in the world” and “a highly regulated business fully licensed by the state of California. It’s run by a guy named Kyle Kazan, who is an ex-cop who plays by the rules and does things by the book.” Kazan, he added, is also a supporter of Trump.

Glass House Farms posted a statement on X on Thursday saying that the company had been “visited today by ICE officials” and “fully complied with agent search warrants.” The statement said nothing else, except to add that the company would “provide further updates if necessary.”

Ambulances were seen going in and out of the Camarillo facility, and Cohodes said as many as 14 people were injured in the action and taken to hospitals.

As the protest heated up, some members of the crowd shouted obscenities at agents. When gas canisters were fired, a few hurled water bottles before running away from the fumes. One woman on a megaphone pleaded with the officers to leave their posts and join the protesters so they could be on the right side of history.

But off to the side, Ricardo Mojica, a tall, silver-haired grandfather, quietly tried to talk to agents to find out what was happening with his son, who worked inside.

Mojica said his 31-year-old son “has no criminal records, he has never been arrested and was born just six miles from here at St. John’s Hospital. He’s the father of my granddaughter, and I haven’t heard anything from him since this morning.”

Mojica pointed to one of the Border Patrol guards and said, ‘He told me my son was being detained, but then his partner told him not to talk to me. I just want to know why he’s being held.”

Around 4:30 p.m. Oxnard native Christina Muñoz held her 2-year-old son on her hip as she strained to catch a glimpse of her husband, Christopher, a National Guardsman who she heard had been deployed that day from Los Angeles to the factory raid. Her mother stood nearby holding Christina’s infant daughter.

“I haven’t seen him for 30 days,” Muñoz said, “and I was hoping I could see him here.”

She and her children have been staying with her family in Oxnard since her husband was deployed.

“We thought it would be for just a few days,” she said, “but we didn’t see him for Father’s Day or the Fourth of July. We had no idea it would last this long.”

“He’s needed at home,” Muñoz’s mother said, as she bounced the baby in her arms. “His family needs him.”

Off to the side of the protesters, David Elliott stood watching the scene with a beer in one hand and a small six-pack cooler in the other.

“I’m out of beer,” he joked. The Camarillo resident said he had been heading for the beach, “but I got caught up in all the traffic and I thought, ‘You know what? I’m going to hang out here and see what happens.’”

Elliott said he supports law enforcement and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and he voted for Donald Trump to be president, but he doesn’t like what’s happening now with the immigration sweeps.

“I voted for Trump because he said he was going to go after the bad guys, and I know they’re there, but I don’t like what they’re doing now …. going after people at Home Depot or farmworkers in the fields.

“These are hardworking people — my gardener and his crew started working for my parents 20 years ago and now they work for me, and they’re illegal; they’re not bad people, they’re like family, and a lot of us depend on the work they do.

“I voted for Trump to clean out the bad guys first and then start working on a system to get the farmworkers and gardeners, but there’s got to be a better way. There should be a way to integrate them into our system because they work harder than anyone I know.”

There were a few things left out of this article:

  • Pot is still federally illegal.
  • Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed on X that 319 unlawful immigrants were apprehended during the raid at Glass House Farms.
  • Law enforcement rescued 14 children from potential forced labor, exploitation, and trafficking.
  • 8 of the children were unaccompanied. This means they were probably trafficked.
  • One man (Roman Izquierda) taken into custody has a history of violent crime, including attempted child exploitation including a 7 year sentence for kidnapping & attempted rape, w/ a prior conviction for attempted child molestation. 
  • Another illegal alien (Juan Duarte-Velasquez) was wanted for DUI and Rape.
  • Jose Orellana was convicted of felonet DUI and Hit-and-run.
  • Adriana Gonzalez-Gonzalez was convicted three times for burglary and DUI.
  • Glass House Farms is under investigation for possible child labor law violations. 
  • The company’s co-founder, president and board director, Graham Farrar, donated $10,000 to California Gov. Gavin Newsom in 2018, among other Democratic politicians. He has also donated to Republicans, and shown support for Republicans who expressed support for liberalizing cannabis laws. 
  • The protestors threw rocks and bottles at ICE vehicles as they were leaving.
  • On individual is wanted for shooting a gun at ICE agents. There is a $50,000 reward for information leading to his capture.
  • Agents claim that Jonathan Caravello was arrested for allegedly throwing a tear gas canister at law enforcement officers

An irate Trump took to his Truth Social platform to blast the protesters, and authorize ICE to take whatever precautions are necessary to protect themselves during future raids. 

“I am on my way back from Texas, and watched in disbelief as THUGS were violently throwing rocks and bricks at ICE Officers while they were moving down a roadway in their car and/or official vehicle,” he said.

Trump continued with a social media post:

“Tremendous damage was done to these brand new vehicles. I know for a fact that these Officers are having a hard time with allowing this to happen in that it shows such total disrespect for LAW AND ORDER.

“I am giving Total Authorization for ICE to protect itself, just like they protect the Public,” he wrote. “I never want to see a car carrying a Law Enforcement Officer attacked again! AUTHORIZATION IMMEDIATELY GRANTED FOR ARREST AND INCARCERATION. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

Reactions

The reporter is Abby Phillips.

No. 10 of the 14 children were unaccompanied. Parental permission is required.

Also, children as young as 12 years old can work on a farm outside of school hours. It doesn’t look like this was happening.

It Just Gets Better

According to L.A. Times:

Mayor Karen Bass announced a plan Friday to provide direct cash assistance to people who have been affected by the Trump administration’s sweeping immigration raids.

The aid will be distributed using cash cards with a “couple hundred” dollars on them, which should be available in about a week, Bass said at a news conference.

“You have people who don’t want to leave their homes, who are not going to work, and they are in need of cash,” she said.

Bass spoke about a family she met who needed two incomes to afford their rent. After one of the breadwinners was detained in an immigration raid, she said, the family is concerned they may face eviction.

It was not immediately clear what the qualifications will be needed to receive the cards.

The mayor emphasized that the money will not come from city coffers but from philanthropic partners. The cards will be distributed by immigrants rights groups such as the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles.

The city will coordinate between philanthropists and organizations distributing the cards, according to the mayor’s office.

Episode 1086 – Here Is A Great Argument for Gun Control!

The Left doesn’t even wait for the victims of the Texas flood to be found before they go out and blame Trump and racism for the flood. Turns out both claims are asinine.

An argument for gun control comes from an unlikely source after a shooting in Philadelphia and the argument is about as coherent as all the other arguments.

And the violence is escalating from the hard Left.

Of Course It’s His Fault

The Department of Homeland Security put out its own thread, which stated:

The mainstream media is deliberately lying about the events leading up to the catastrophic flooding in Texas. The National Weather Service executed timely, precise forecasting and warnings, despite unprecedented rainfall overwhelming the region. Here is the timeline of NWS’s proactive response: 

Morning, July 3rd: NWS Austin/San Antonio conducts forecast briefings for emergency management, flagging flash flood risks. Morning, July 3rd: National Water Center issues Flood Hazard Outlook, identifying flash flood potential for Kerrville and surrounding areas. 1:18 PM, July 3rd: NWS issues Flood Watch for Kerr County, effective through Friday morning. 6:10 PM, July 3rd: Weather Prediction Center issues first of three Mesoscale Precipitation Discussions, warning of excessive rainfall and flash flood potential. 6:22 PM, July 3rd: National Water Center warns of considerable flooding risks north and west of San Antonio, including Kerrville. 11:41 PM, July 3rd: First Flash Flood Warning issued for Bandera County.

1:14 AM, July 4th: Flash Flood Warning with “Considerable” tag issued for Bandera and Kerr Counties, triggering Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEAs) and NOAA Weather Radio notifications. 4:03 AM, July 4th: Flash Flood Warning upgraded to Flash Flood Emergency for south-central Kerr County, including Hunt. 4:35 AM, July 4th: Kerr County Sheriff’s Office reports flooding at low water crossings, 201 minutes (over 3 hours) after the 1:14 AM warning. 5:00 AM, July 4th: National Water Center warns of widespread considerable and catastrophic flooding. 5:34 AM, July 4th: Flash Flood Emergency issued for the Guadalupe River, signaling a “large and deadly flood wave.”

The National Weather Service provided over 12 hours of advance notice via the Flood Watch and over 3 hours of lead time for Flash Flood Warnings, with escalated alerts as the storm intensified.

That wasn’t it. Dr. Christina Propst, a pediatrician, posted this:

This nut job supported mask mandates and pushed to have vaccines mandatory for a child to be seen by a doctor.

She was fired from her job at Blue Fish Pediatrics.

Everything is Racist

This Is What a Civil War Will Look Like

According to Fox News:

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and other federal law enforcement officers conducting immigration enforcement have been targeted in at least two ambushes in Texas in recent days. 

The Justice Department on Monday named 10 individuals charged with shooting a police officer in the neck and opening fire on other correctional officers outside the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas, on the Fourth of July. The group, donning all black, allegedly first began shooting fireworks at the facility, which is being used by the Department of Homeland Security to hold people related to immigration violations or awaiting deportation.  

The defendants are Cameron Arnold, also known as Autumn Hill; Savannah Batten; Nathan Baumann; Zachary Evetts; Joy Gibson; Bradford Morris, also known as Meagan Morris; Maricela Rueda; Seth Sikes; Elizabeth Soto; and Ines Soto. The complaint charges each of them with three counts of attempted murder of a federal officer and three counts of discharging a firearm during, in relation to and in furtherance of a violent crime. 

Approximately 10 minutes after convening at the ICE facility, one or two individuals broke off from the main group and began to spray graffiti on vehicles and a guard structure in the parking lot, authorities said. Photos included in the criminal complaint, filed in the Northern District of Texas, show vehicles tagged with the messages “ICE pig” and “F— you pigs.” Correction officers dialed 911 and an Alvarado police officer responded to the scene. 

Immediately after the officer got out of his vehicle, one defendant positioned in nearby woods allegedly shot the officer in the neck, according to the complaint. Another assailant, wearing a green mask and standing across the street, then allegedly fired 20 to 30 rounds at unarmed correctional officers who had stepped outside the facility.

“The shooting was captured by both CCTV and the APD officer’s body-worn camera,” the complaint says.

The FBI recovered AR-style rifles from the scene. The group fled from the detention center separately – some on foot, some in vehicles – and were later stopped by other law enforcement officers. The complaint notes that the defendants were “dressed in black, military-style clothing,” some were wearing body armor, some were armed, and some had two-way radios.

Prosecutors said a total of twelve sets of body armor were found during searches of vehicles associated with the defendants, on their persons, and in the area around the Prairieland Detention Center. Law enforcement also found spray paint, magazines containing ammunition and flyers stating, “FIGHT ICE TERROR WITH CLASS WAR!” and “FREE ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS.” A flag was found that read, “RESIST FASCISM – FIGHT OLIGARCHY.”

Episode 1084 – Snatching Defeat From the Jaws of Victory!

Alligator Alcatraz is almost up and running and will hold some of the most dangerous illegal aliens in the country until they get deported. I have a story about one.

Alligator Alcatraz is not only going to break illegal aliens hopes of a pleasant life in the United States, it has broken a bunch of low-IQ individuals on the Left.

And Republicans sure know how to lose a sure bet.

Grasping Defeat from the Jaws of Victory

According to the Daily Wire:

Speaker Mike Johnson has President Donald Trump’s signature bill at the finish line.

During a marathon overnight session that at times appeared doomed, Republicans voted 219-213 at about 3:30 a.m. to send the bill to a final vote.

The late hour was not due to procedure, but rather indecision on the Republican side of the aisle. After five Republicans voted against the rule to proceed, coupled with a handful of Republicans who were holding out, Johnson had to scramble to not only find votes, but also get Republicans to switch theirs.

Just before midnight, Johnson said he would hold the vote open for as long as it needed, and started to whip votes, with a helping hand from Trump.

We are waiting for the final vote, but leave it to Democrats to stall. Hakeem Jeffries has decided to use his right to use the “magic minute” that allows him to filibuster about the bill.

The “magic minute” is a right that the leaders have a house to make a speech as long as he wants about the bill. Basically, it’s a filibuster.

Hakeem Jeffries walked into the chambers at about 5 AM with three large binders and he started. He has been talking ever since and is not expected to stop until some time this afternoon.

He Totally Belongs in Our Country

According to the Daily Wire:

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Tuesday shared a disturbing tale of an illegal immigrant, which she said underscored the importance of the Trump administration’s deportation efforts.

“The other day I was talking to some marshals who had been partnering with ICE,” Noem said. “They said they had detained a cannibal and put him on a plane to take him home and while they had him in his seat he started to eat himself, and they had to get him off and get him medical attention.”

“You know, what bothered me the most is that this U.S. Marshal just said it like it was normal,” Noem said in an interview with FOX News. “He said he was literally eating his own arms. That is what he did. He called himself a cannibal and ate other people and ate himself that day.”

“These are the kind of deranged individuals that are on our streets in America that we’re trying to target,” Noem added.” We’re trying to get them out of our country because they are so deranged they don’t belong here.”

The secretary then slammed news outlets that “lie every single day about what these operations are.”

“We are going after murderers and rapists and traffickers and drug dealers and getting them off the streets, and getting them out of this country because Joe Biden let the worst of the worst come in here.”

“They shouldn’t be walking the streets with our children. And they shouldn’t be living in communities with our families who just want to raise their children to grow up and get a job and to live the American dream,” she added.

The press briefing comes after a visit to Florida’s latest ICE detention facility, dubbed Alligator Alcatraz, alongside President Donald Trump.

No One Is Going to Watch

According to the Daily Wire:

On July 4th, the movie “Sinners” will become the first show to be interpreted into “Black American Sign Language (BASL),” per a press release from Warner Bros.

The entertainment company described it as “a major step forward in accessibility, representation, and visibility in streaming.”

“BASL is a distinct dialect of American Sign Language (ASL) with its own dynamic history and unique grammar, signing space, rhythm, facial expressions, and cultural nuances,” the release stated. “For the first time, the Black Deaf community will have streaming access to a more immersive experience in their language. Max subscribers, who sign in ASL but are unfamiliar with this dialect, will also be able to follow along with this interpretation.”

The press release noted that the interpretation will be done by Nakia Smith, “an influential voice in the Black Deaf community, who delivers a powerful interpretation with cultural depth and linguistic richness that aligns with the film’s themes and historical timeline.” 

“Accessibility within streaming is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Our goal at Max is to make these great stories accessible to all audiences in a way that is authentic to the content and the communities we serve,” Naomi Waibel, Senior VP of Global Product Management at Warner Bros. Discovery, said in a statement. “Sinners with Black American Sign Language is an example of how culturally nuanced access can enrich the viewing experience for our audiences.”

According to the movie’s summary, “Sinners” is about twin brothers who “return to their hometown to start again, only to discover that an even greater evil is waiting to welcome them back.” It was released in theaters in April 2025.

They Hate You

The sun monster strikes again. According to the Daily Wire:

In 2023, the Teamsters signed a massive deal with UPS to guarantee a fleet of air-conditioned trucks.

“Our members just ratified the most lucrative agreement the Teamsters have ever negotiated at UPS. This contract will improve the lives of hundreds of thousands of workers,” Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien boasted at the time. “Teamsters have set a new standard and raised the bar for pay, benefits, and working conditions in the package delivery industry.”

He may have started celebrating too early.

As temperatures climbed last month, the Teamsters sent a furious letter to UPS demanding information on the whereabouts of the air-conditioned vehicles.

“How does UPS expect to actually deliver 20,000 or more air-conditioned package cars and vans over the next two years, when the delivery giant is already so far behind?” O’Brien demanded. “The summer heat beating down on our members is no joke. UPS is playing a dangerous game with the lives of thousands of essential American workers.”

UPS, meanwhile, seems to have different concerns.

For years, the company has been focused on replacing its fleet with so-called green vehicles. A few years ago, UPS pledged to make 40% of its vehicles use “alternative fuel” by 2025. So far, UPS says it uses more than 1,000 electric or hybrid vehicles.

Drivers blasting their air conditioning in the sweltering Texas heat probably doesn’t help the shipping giant’s goal of reaching “carbon neutrality by 2050.”

Is This Real?

According to the New York Post:

Nearly no one enjoys getting stopped by Transportation Security Administration (TSA) authorities at the airport.

But when checkpoint alarm bells begin blaring around a traveler’s groin, as happened to one befuddled passenger not long ago, there is a chance it’s due to extreme wetness in their pants, insiders say.

“I flew for the first time in 15 years this week, and both airports flagged my crotch at the arms up scanner,” a confused tripper confessed on Reddit recently.

The wet wanderluster described herself as a “midsized adult woman (5-foot-8, 169 lbs.)” wearing bike shorts and normal underwear. The skyway siren assured social media readers that her private parts are neither pierced nor outfitted with medical devices. She claimed her pockets were totally empty. 

“I don’t care about the pat down, they were polite and professional and it doesn’t bother me,” said the baffled belle, “but I’m wondering what did it.”

Internet know-it-alls say it’s crotch sweat — and they’re likely right. 

“Sweat, feminine products (liners, pads, depends) could be anything but those seem to be culprits,” a Reddit commenter wrote. 

“Last time I flew out of my home airport of Tampa, I got searched too,” admitted an equally clammy jet-setter. “The [security] guard said something unnerving like ‘swamp rot’ or ‘swamp crotch’ or something similarly embarrassing.”

It’s a bodily function that can wrongfully trigger red flags, per TSA expert Shawna Malvini Redden.

“Perspiration is probably the weirdest thing that can set off the scanners,” Malvini Redden recently explained to Reader’s Digest. “It has to do with millimeter wave technology and how the waves bounce off water.” 

The insider added that because the machines often generate false alarms due to sweat, some countries, including France and Germany, have banned the scanners altogether.

But massive moisture isn’t the only reason the TSA technology might mistake one’s undercarriage for a dangerous weapon. 

“On-person screening technology effectively screens diverse populations of travelers every day,” TSA representatives previously told The Post, adding that their devices and screening algorithms are trained to recognize body composition.

Any unexpected abnormalities, including excess sweat, could potentially prompt an alert, they said.

Episode 1083 – An Example of an Effort to Save Face

The legal community is just flooding us with news today. Though I haven’t mentioned all these cases before, it is worth talking about. There are some lessons we can learn.

Not Guilty!

P-Diddy jurors, after one day of deliberations, find him not guilty of of racketeering conspiracy and two counts of sex trafficking by force.

He was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.

The counts he was charged with come with 10 years for each count. Chances are he’s not going to get that. He will probably get a couple of years with time served.

Guilty!

According to the New York Post:

Paramount Global and CBS agreed on Tuesday to pay President Trump a sum that could reach north of $30 million to settle the president’s election interference lawsuit against the network. 

Trump will receive $16 million up front. This will cover legal fees, costs of the case, and contributions to his future presidential library or charitable causes, to be determined at Trump’s discretion. 

There is an anticipation that there will be another allocation in the mid-eight figures set aside for advertisements, public service announcements, or other similar transmissions, in support of conservative causes by the network in the future, Fox News Digital has learned.

With these considerations, CBS would pay well in excess of the $15 million that ABC paid Trump to settle a defamation lawsuit last year. Current Paramount management disputes the additional allocation.

Extremely Guilty

Bryan Kohberger is the former doctoral student in criminology who was charged with the murders of four University of Idaho students—Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen, and Kaylee Goncalves—in November 2022. The killings took place at an off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho, and drew national attention due to their brutality and the initial mystery surrounding the case1378.

Current Status (as of July 2, 2025):

  • Kohberger is expected to plead guilty to all counts at a court hearing today, as part of a plea deal that will spare him the death penalty12346.
  • The plea agreement requires him to accept four consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole for the murders, and an additional maximum 10-year sentence for burglary12346.
  • He will waive all rights to appeal as part of the deal12346.
  • The plea was initiated by Kohberger’s defense team, and prosecutors agreed after consulting with the victims’ families136.
  • Sentencing is expected to take place later in July, provided Kohberger enters the guilty plea as anticipated36.

Background and Arrest:

  • Kohberger was a Ph.D. student at Washington State University in Pullman, Washington, just a short drive from Moscow, Idaho78.
  • He was arrested at his parents’ home in Pennsylvania on December 30, 2022, about six weeks after the murders1378.
  • DNA evidence linking Kohberger to a knife sheath found at the crime scene played a central role in his identification and arrest1378.
  • Kohberger was indicted on four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary78.

The Goncalves family confirmed in a statement to Reuters from their attorney that they learned of the plea deal in a letter from prosecutors and said prosecutors mishandled the deal.

“After more than two years, this is how it concludes with a secretive deal and a hurried effort to close the case without any input from the victims’ families on the plea’s details. Adding insult to injury, they’re rushing the plea, giving families just one day to coordinate and appear at the courthouse for a plea on July 2.”

Steve Goncalves, father of one of the victims, said: “This is anything but justice. This is the opposite of our will. There was no majority believing that this was acceptable.

“This is not justice. We had an outsider come to our community, kill our kids in their sleep while they’re getting a college education, doing everything that they should do, and we don’t have the courage to hold him accountable. No plea deal. Let’s go for this guy. One hundred percent, let’s do it.”

About Time

According to the Daily Wire:

The White House has struck a deal with the University of Pennsylvania that requires the school to strip trans-identifying male swimmer Lia Thomas of the titles he won on the women’s team, The Daily Wire has learned.

The University of Pennsylvania will restore all titles to female athletes that were “misappropriated” by male athletes, according to a landmark agreement between the Trump administration and the University of Pennsylvania, a White House official shared with The Daily Wire.

Thomas competed as a female swimmer at the University of Pennsylvania, infamously tying with University of Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines in 2022 at the NCAAs and taking her trophy — prompting Gaines to take a stand against men in women’s sports.

Trying to Fix Things

According to the Daily Wire:

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a pair of bills Monday night rolling back parts of a landmark environmental law to remove barriers to tackling the state’s housing shortage.

The California legislature with bipartisan support voted last week to exempt certain projects, such as some high-density housing plans, from onerous California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) reviews and approvals. Newsom pushed the legislation forward, threatening to hold up the state’s budget unless the CEQA rollbacks hit his desk, as well.

“Today’s bill is a game changer, which will be felt for generations to come,” Newsom said in a statement referring to the CEQA overhaul.

Newsom held a press conference Monday evening touting the bills as necessary to rescue the reputation of California’s government and prove that the state is capable of solving pressing problems.

“If we can’t address this issue, we’re going to lose trust, and that’s just the truth,” said Newsom, according to The New York Times. “And so this is so much bigger in many ways than the issue itself. It is about the reputation of not just Sacramento and the legislative leadership and executive leadership, but the reputation of the state of California.”

Newsom has promised to address California’s burgeoning housing shortage since his first campaign for governor in 2018. Now well into his second term and close to being term-limited out of office, Newsom pushed the CEQA reforms forward as he is widely seen as a potential Democratic contender for president in 2028.

CEQA was originally signed into law in 1970 by then-Governor Ronald Reagan. The law at the time it was enacted was thought to only apply to government projects, but a court decision two years later broadened the law’s application to a host of development projects.

Since then, critics have said that the law’s strict review and approval process, believed to be the toughest in the United States, has been abused by environmental activists, labor unions, California residents, and others to extract concessions in exchange for politically sensitive projects or to override construction proposals unpopular with a small group.

Environmental groups rallied against the CEQA reforms. Dozens of groups partnered together to urge lawmakers to reject the bills.

“This bill is the worst anti-environmental bill in California in recent memory,” the groups wrote in a joint letter. “It represents an unprecedented rollback to California’s fundamental environmental and community protections at a time in which the people of California grapple with unprecedented federal attacks to their lives and livelihoods.”

Episode 1079 – New York is Heading for a Sad Fall

New York is going to hell and a hand basket.

The media keeps throwing water on the success of Trump’s bombing of Iran’s nuclear sites, but the IAEA has more news proving the successes.

And expect more conspiracy theories like the one we are going to talk about.

New York Is Going to Hell

According to NBC News, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has conceded to 33-year-old democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor, with Mamdani’s progressive platform and strategic advantage in the ranked-choice voting system overcoming Cuomo’s significant financial backing and early polling lead in what analysts are calling a seismic shift in city politics.

https://www.perplexity.ai/discover/top/zohran-mamdani-defeats-andrew-aeMFV8AcSUKjcNhBpZHJoQ

That Will Prove It

According to the New York Post:

The head of the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog group revealed even more damage from the US airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear sites after taking a closer look — including possible chemical contamination at one facility.

International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief Rafael Grossi said Tuesday that the latest satellite images from the Fordow and Natanz facilities showed additional damage, beyond what the agency found in the first-pass review of the sites.

At Fordow, the mountain fortress just south of Tehran, officials identified additional strikes at the road leading up to the facility, as well as one of the entrances.

The US dropped 14 30,000-pound bunker-buster bombs on the facility, which includes equipment buried 300 feet underground.

Meanwhile, at Natanz, the IAEA identified “two impact holes from the U.S. strikes above the underground halls that had been used for enrichment as well as for storage.”

“Based on its knowledge of what these halls contained, the IAEA assesses that this strike may have caused localized contamination and chemical hazards,” Grossi warned.

The US hit that site — along with one other — with cruise missiles fired from a nuclear-powered submarine as part of the Saturday strikes.

The watchdog group assured the world that there “has been no radiological impact” to the population so far due to the damage.

The full details of the contamination, however, cannot be properly assessed until IAEA inspectors can analyze it up close.

Wait, What?!

The X post by Juanita Broaddrick references a video from Fox News discussing a serious allegation against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, involving a letter from Vance Boelter, the suspect in a recent shooting, claiming Walz instructed him to assassinate Senator Amy Klobuchar to take her Senate seat. This claim lacks evidence, as confirmed by ongoing investigations and Walz’s denial, yet it has sparked significant social media discussion and conspiracy theories.

The context of this allegation is set against a backdrop of political violence in Minnesota, where Boelter, disguised as a police officer, carried out attacks on state lawmakers, resulting in fatalities and injuries. The shootings were described as politically motivated, with Boelter having a “hit list” of Democratic officials, though no direct evidence links Walz to the attacks beyond Boelter’s unverified claims.

The timing and nature of the post, combined with the lack of public response from Walz, as noted by Broaddrick, fuel speculation and concern about the potential implications for political figures and the integrity of democratic processes, especially given the gravity of the accusations and the ongoing investigation into the shootings.

Episode 1050 – Crime Pays!

What a surprise! The Democrats and media (but I repeat myself) have been lying about Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the illegal alien gang member deported to El Salvador.

Karmelo Anthony, the murderer of a white track athlete in Texas, not only got out of jail but got a new car. His life is looking up.

And we have a serious mental health problem in this country. I have another couple of stories that show that.

News

  • A now-deported illegal alien accused of being an MS-13 gang member that was living illegally in Maryland has a record of being a “violent” repeat wife beater, according to court records filed in a Prince George’s County, Maryland, district court by his wife.
    • The police department’s Gang Unit MS-13 Intelligence Squad conducted an interview with Abrego Garcia and contacted a “past proven and reliable source” who identified him as an active member of MS-13 with the “Westerns” clique, with the rank of “Chequeo” and the moniker of “Chele.”
    • He was stopped and suspected of human trafficking because he had seven people in his car.
    • The police contacted the FBI under Biden. They were told to take pictures of everyone in the car and let them go.
  • The Texas teen accused of fatally stabbing a high school football star at a track meet allegedly lives in a $900,000 home with his family inside a luxurious gated community — despite requesting that a judge lower his $1 million bond because of financial difficulties, according to a report.
    • Karmelo Anthony, 17, is holed up with his family at the pricey home inside the gated community of Richwoods in Frisco, Texas, after he was released from jail Monday on a reduced $250,000 bond for allegedly killing Austin Metcalf earlier this month, the Daily Mail reported.
    • They are paying $3500 a month in rent.
    • “He got a new car,” the resident told the outlet. “If you look at the license plate, it’s got a paper tag and it says it expires June 4.”
  • District Judge James Boasberg has issued an opinion stating that he has found probable cause that the federal government was in criminal contempt by refusing to comply with his order prohibiting certain deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.
    • “The Court ultimately determines that the Government’s actions … demonstrate a willful disregard for its Order, sufficient for the Court to conclude that probable cause exists to find the Government in criminal contempt,” Boasberg said in an April 16 opinion.
    • Boasberg’s order came after the Supreme Court vacated his orders and said the case was brought in the wrong court.
    • “The fact that the Supreme Court determined that this Court’s TROs suffered from a venue defect does not affect—let alone moot—the compliance inquiry presently teed up here,” he said.
  • Cody A. Balmer, the suspect charged with arson at Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro’s residence, was motivated by his perception of Shapiro’s stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, specifically regarding Gaza. According to multiple search warrants and police documents, Balmer targeted Shapiro because he believed the governor’s actions or policies were contributing to the suffering and deaths of Palestinians12345678.
    • Balmer called 911 after the attack, identifying himself and stating that Governor Shapiro “needs to understand that he will not be part of his plans for what he intends to do to the Palestinian people”12345678.

More Proof We Have A Mental Health Crisis

Nikita Casap, a 17-year-old from Waukesha, Wisconsin, has been charged with the murder of his mother, Tatiana Casap, 35, and his stepfather, Donald Mayer, 51. Authorities allege that these killings were part of a broader extremist plot to assassinate former President Donald Trump and overthrow the U.S. government. Federal court documents reveal that Casap aimed to secure financial resources and autonomy to carry out his plan, which included purchasing explosives and a drone equipped for weapon delivery123.

Casap’s phone contained antisemitic writings advocating violence, a manifesto praising Adolf Hitler, and communications with neo-Nazi groups such as the Order of Nine Angles. Investigators also found evidence of his plans to destabilize the government through targeted assassinations and incite chaos. He allegedly shared his intentions on platforms like TikTok and Telegram and communicated with individuals in Russia about his plans125.

The bodies of Casap’s parents were discovered in their home on February 28 after being deceased for over two weeks. Casap reportedly lived with the remains before fleeing in Mayer’s vehicle, taking $14,000 in cash, passports, and other valuables. He was apprehended in Kansas later that day during a traffic stop468.

Casap faces multiple charges, including first-degree murder, conspiracy to assassinate the president, and attempted use of weapons of mass destruction. He remains in custody with a bond set at $1 million and is scheduled for arraignment on May 7137.

About Time

Idaho has recently enacted House Bill 380, making it the first state to legalize the use of firing squads for executing individuals convicted of aggravated lewd conduct with children under the age of 12. Governor Brad Little signed the legislation into law, which will take effect on July 1, 2025136.

Key Provisions of House Bill 380:

  • Death Penalty Eligibility: The law allows the death penalty for pedophiles convicted of aggravated lewd conduct with minors under 12 years old. Prosecutors must prove that defendants meet at least three of 17 aggravating factors, such as committing multiple acts of lewd conduct, using force, or transmitting a sexually transmitted disease to a minor18.
  • Mandatory Minimum Sentences: For cases involving minors under 16 that do not meet death penalty criteria, the law imposes mandatory minimum prison sentences of at least 25 years23.
  • Execution Method: Idaho has also made firing squads its primary method of execution, becoming the only state in the U.S. to do so. This decision follows challenges in obtaining lethal injection drugs and concerns about botched executions57.

Legislative and Public Reaction:

The bill received overwhelming support in the Idaho Legislature, with only a few dissenting votes. Proponents argue that it serves as a strong deterrent and aligns Idaho’s laws with stricter penalties for child sexual abuse seen in other states36. Governor Little stated that such crimes are “sickening and evil” and merit the ultimate punishment10.

Critics, including some lawmakers and advocacy groups, have raised concerns about equating justice with retribution and questioned the constitutionality of applying the death penalty to non-homicide crimes, citing past U.S. Supreme Court rulings like Kennedy v. Louisiana (2008)39.

This landmark legislation reflects Idaho’s tough-on-crime stance and marks a significant shift in criminal justice policy regarding child sexual abuse cases.

Just Why?

The city of Northglenn, Colorado, has passed a new ordinance limiting the number of pets per household to four, effective August 1, 2025. This restriction applies to a combination of dogs and cats, with a maximum of four animals allowed in total per residence124.

The ordinance was introduced following complaints from residents about excessive noise and pet waste caused by large numbers of pets in certain neighborhoods. The city council conducted extensive research and discussions before implementing the regulation24. Northglenn was previously the only municipality in Adams County without pet ownership limits45.

Residents who already own more than four pets can apply for a “previously owned pet exception” before the ordinance takes effect. This exemption requires submitting a form listing each pet’s name, breed, age, sex, and acquisition date. Failure to comply with the new law or disclose extra pets by the deadline may result in enforcement actions, including court orders mandating pet removal135.

The ordinance does not apply to puppies or kittens under six months old from the same litter living in the same household5. Similar pet ownership limits are already in place in nearby cities such as Arvada, Aurora, Brighton, and Broomfield5.

The Truth Is Out There

Summary of the Declassified CIA File: Soviet Soldiers and the “Alien Stone” Incident

A recently resurfaced, declassified Cold War-era CIA document has gone viral for its extraordinary claims: it details an alleged incident in which Soviet soldiers were turned to stone by extraterrestrials after a confrontation with a UFO, according to a report originally compiled by the KGB and later obtained by the CIA after the Soviet Union’s collapse1357.

The Alleged Incident

  • Time and Place: The event reportedly occurred in 1989 or 1990 during a Soviet military training exercise, with sources variously citing Ukraine or Siberia as the location1357.
  • Initial Encounter: Soviet troops observed a “low-flying spaceship in the shape of a saucer” hovering above their unit. For reasons not fully explained, a soldier fired a surface-to-air missile at the UFO, causing it to crash nearby1357.
  • Alien Response: Five short humanoids with “large heads and large black eyes” allegedly emerged from the wreckage. According to the two surviving soldiers, the beings quickly regrouped and merged into a single, spherical object that began to emit a buzzing and hissing sound before flaring up with an extremely bright light1357.
  • Aftermath: The explosion of light reportedly turned 23 soldiers into “stone poles” or limestone-like pillars. Only two soldiers survived, shielded by shade from the full force of the blast1357.
  • KGB Actions: The KGB is said to have transported the petrified remains and the wrecked UFO to a secret research facility near Moscow. Soviet scientists allegedly concluded that the soldiers’ molecular structure had been altered to resemble limestone, caused by an unknown energy source beyond current scientific understanding1357.

The CIA’s Assessment

The CIA document, which summarizes the KGB report and media coverage from Canadian Weekly World News and the Ukrainian newspaper Holos Ukrayiny, describes the case as “a horrific picture of revenge on the part of extraterrestrial creatures, a picture that makes one’s blood freeze.” The CIA’s commentary concludes:

“If the KGB file corresponds to reality, this is an extremely menacing case. The aliens possess such weapons and technology that go beyond all our assumptions. They can stand up for themselves if attacked.”13567

Authenticity and Skepticism

  • Source of the Document: The CIA file is not an original intelligence report but rather a summary of foreign media and KGB documents, some of which were open-source and not independently verified by the CIA2358.
  • Skepticism: Former CIA officers and analysts have expressed strong doubts about the story’s authenticity, noting that the tale has likely been distorted through multiple retellings and resembles science fiction more than credible military reporting1268.
  • Media Origins: The story was first reported in the early 1990s by sensationalist outlets and has resurfaced periodically, most recently gaining attention through podcasts and renewed public interest in UFOs358.

Broader Context

The incident is part of a broader wave of renewed curiosity about UFOs and unidentified aerial phenomena, especially following recent U.S. government disclosures and the establishment of official task forces to investigate such reports58.

I Love This!

Grizzly Pines, a private gay nudist campground in Navasota, Texas, is facing backlash for its policy excluding transgender men. The controversy began when the campground reaffirmed its cisgender-only policy in a now-deleted post on Trans Day of Visibility, citing the need to preserve “comfort” and a “shared lived experience” among cisgender men. Critics argue this exclusion contradicts LGBTQ+ values of inclusion and body positivity124.

The Houston Bears and other groups have severed ties with the venue, canceling events in solidarity with trans men. Critics within the LGBTQ+ community have labeled the policy as transphobic, questioning its justification and timing24. This incident has reignited debates about exclusion and community definitions in queer spaces124.
