News on Iran? None!

Round and Round

Still no idea where the Iran quagmire will end up. Not crazy at all about Vance being point man. Seems "same old, same old" to me. US announces breakthroughs and "good progress". Iran replies - BS. Denounces pretty much every claim about progress we make.

No change of heart or mind here. These are bad guys and, while they might agree to some things to get some cash flowing, they'll never abide by their promises. 47 years and seven US Presidents are proof. As long as these guys have oil flowing and Uzis, things will not end well.

Before we say goodbye to Father's Day

Remember - Fathers are Not Mothers.

Not supposed to be. Fatherhood is no cakewalk—and society doesn’t offer a ton of good blueprints. The media regularly stereotypes fathers as goofy, hapless fools who depend on their superhero wives. Except for the ones who are MIA. In the LSM's eyes, the only good dad is a feminized ‘gentle parent’ who never raises his voice, is always ready with a hug, and never lets his kid take a risk or get hurt.

In other words, the only good Dad is a Mom.

Sorry. Fathers ain't supposed to be Mothers. Kids don't need two mothers. One will do just fine. What they need are Fathers not afraid to be one.

300,000 Still Missing

Homeland secretary, Markwayne Mullin revealed that 450,000 immigrant children went missing or were released to unvetted "sponsors" during Biden's tenure. Many were forced into sex trafficking and horrific abuse.

146,000 have been located and rescued where necessary by DHS. Means almost 300,000 are still unaccounted for. And Democrats would have you believe they are the "compassionate" party.

Free or Not, Life or Death

This is not some social program or handout to buy votes. The need for a massive capital injection to resupply, upgrade and modernize our military has never been clearer. Forget about the fact that we are rapidly running out of interceptor missiles or that our fleet is in woeful condition, we are falling behind in space age technology. Where the next "Big One" will be decided.

And yet the "other" party is stonewalling. Dems likely will force another shutdown in September on the belief shutdowns hurt the party in power.

This is disgusting - playing politics with American sovereignty and lives. Midterms are coming. Can America really afford to take the chance?

Keir- put

For many moons we have been commenting on the mess in the UK. In no small part thanks to its pathetic PM - Keir Starmer. Trump doesn't like him much either.

Well, Keir is kaput. Resigned Sunday. Following rebukes by his own party and their massive losses in recent elections.

Send Them Back

Could woke Euros be getting fed up too?

Chants of "Send Them Back" rocked the European Parliament last week after lawmakers approved a sweeping overhaul of the European Union’s migrant return system. The latest sign that Europe is moving toward tougher immigration enforcement after years of growing anger and frustration from voters.

Members of the European Parliament voted 418 to 218 Wednesday to approve the "Return Regulation", a measure designed to speed up the removal of third-country nationals who are staying illegally in the European Union.  

The moment quickly turned explosive. After the vote was announced, right-wing lawmakers stood, applauded and chanted "send them back".  

Even so - the Swiss blew it.

Snow caps, yes: people caps, no. In a national referendum this week, the people of Switzerland voted against a hard cap of 10 million on the population. The vote was called by the conservative Swiss People’s Party in an effort to control the country’s population growth, which is driven entirely by immigration. And I thought the Swiss were the rational ones.

See If You Can Guess Who Said This...

"I really, truly believe this. We each have light inside of us. And we need to know that that is what inspires our hope as much as anything external to ourselves. 

And when we feel that and and and not allow an election or an individual to dampen that light, and instead light, let that light kind of carry us in particular through moments of darkness, that that we not only act on that hope, but we inspire that hope in each other. 

And, in particular, at this moment, it is so important that we not only have hope, but that we understand that that should be a verb."

Okay - good guess. But, not, it was not AOC. It was...your favorite ex-VP. Get this - Kamala hasn't ruled out another run for the WH.

It Just Never Gets Better

6 dead, 39 shot in Chicago bloodbath last weekend.  

A mass drive-by shooting in the Princeton Park neighborhood injured 13 people during a Juneteenth gathering Friday.  

It's beyond mystifying why Chicago residents don't put their foot down and demand their city takes up Trump's offer to help.  Why? Just look at DC, Memphis etc. where the National Guard stepped in.

Obama's Legacy

Well, the monstrosity is open. Not the "library". The PRESIDENTIAL CENTER. Woo-wee.

But Barack's real legacy is Trump.  So little did Americans think of Obama's performance, not only did we repudiate Obama's anointed successor (Hilarious), we elected a Stone Cold Outsider. Heresy, at the very least.

Americans then confirmed their disillusion by voting Trump back in...after four year's of abject mismanagement by Obama's ex-VP.

Let's face it. Barack's only valid claim to "fame" is he was America's first Black president. Not a small accomplishment by any means. But credit goes not to Obama - it goes to America.

The "Hope & Change" President changed almost nothing and suffocated hope. Instead, he left us with Obamacare, an emboldened and "enriched" Iran and a level of divisiveness not seen since the Civil War.

Mamdani on a Roll. Meanwhile NYC cooked.

On Tuesday night, the democratic socialists swept New York.

In a series of closely watched congressional primaries, all three candidates endorsed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani defeated more moderate rivals, including two incumbents. Their victories in heavily blue districts all but guarantee their election to the House of Representatives come November. The results sent shock waves through the Democratic Party.

One is Darializa Avila Chevalier, the Zohran Mamdani-backed socialist who unseated incumbent Adriano Espaillat in New York’s 13th congressional district in the Democratic primary. Here are some of her greatest hits:

• She calls for abolishing police, prisons, and borders. ALL POLICE - in her words. She clarified her position saying her vision “means ending policing full stop. Period. No more police at all ever.”

• She posted, “Yes, literally abolish the border. All deportation is wrong”.

• She called the United States “a fucking disgrace”, referred to the US as “occupied” Native American land, and joked about wiping her dirty hands on the American flag.

• She loves communism, saying “seize the means of production, nationalize utilities and pharmaceutical companies, and seize all properties from landlords”.

• She called Joe Biden a “rapist” and a “war criminal” and said she wouldn’t vote for him, said “fuck Kamala Harris”, and criticized Bernie Sanders and AOC for being too pro-Israel.

• She retweeted a post saying “Israel doesn’t exist”.

• She wrote that “the pyromania associated with anarchism is very intriguing to me.”

Looney tunes, except they're serious. This is where the Democrats are. Midterms are coming.

Another Day - Another Fraud Takedown

The Trump administration announced a sweeping healthcare fraud takedown involving an estimated $6.5 billion in stolen government funds.

Attorney General Todd Blanche, FBI Director Kash Patel, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz said 455 people have been charged, including 90 medical professionals, across 57 federal districts and 41 states and territories. Officials said the cases involve schemes tied to wound care, opioid distribution, Medicaid fraud, and other alleged scams, including more than 100 defendants accused of filing over $100 million in false Medicaid claims. Authorities also seized more than $127 million in cash, luxury vehicles, jewelry, and other assets.

For those of us who lament the premature rescission of DOGE, let's not forget who illuminated all this Medicaid fraud. It was DOGE - no doubt.

AI Update

Senator Mark Warner, Vice Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, disclosed that General Joshua Rudd, who simultaneously leads the NSA and U.S. Cyber Command, told him directly that Anthropic’s Mythos model “broke into almost all of our classified systems, not in weeks, but in hours.”

As we know, Mythos is the AI platform so powerful that access was curtailed by its owner, Anthropic. Mythos is also the platform one of Anthropics' senior exec said would be "DUMB" in 6 to 12 months.
