About this Episode
IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) The Supes just lifted the lower court's block on temporary protected status for the Venezuelan gang bangers in an 8-1 decision. Jumpin' Jackson Brown the only holdout because she doesn't know where Venezuela is. DemoKKKrats deeply disappointed. Huge victory for Trump.
2) More fallout from release of the Biden-Hur tapes as Fakey Jake Tapper continues his "I didn't know" book tour. The tapes beg the question---showing that Rutabaga absolutely had no mind or memory---of who was running America and why did anyone (Republicans included) let it happen? The New York Slimes claims those who championed Rutabaga "now seek atonement." No they don't. They seek to lie and get away with it again. They all knew---we all knew---from 2020 on that Rutabaga was a swiss-cheese-brained analpickle who at his best was a barely aware fascist and at his worst was an Alzheimer's patient who was a fascist. Meanwhile, Congressman Ro Khanna said Rutabaga had no business running in 2024. Really Rolo? Did you say that at the time, oh profile in courage?
COMMENT: Over the weekend someone noted that "Republicans don't like being in the majority---that they love to raise money being in the minority". I think there is merit in that idea. Unless you are willing to use power ruthlessly to expand your power, well, the majority takes all the arrows. And Republicans have shown they still haven't recovered from the 1995 "government shutdown" where they were portrayed as Grinches. No one was better at pointing this out than the late great Rush Limbaugh. They prefer to oppose, then negotiate deals that personally benefit them for their eventual support. In the meantime, to show they are "nice guys," they play ball on confirming truly evil people such as Grand Moff Garland to appointed positions and rubber-stamping DemoKKKrat president judges. Nevertheless, I believe this is far more about psychological damage that they have not addressed rather than money. Some have broken free: Lee Zeldin at the EPA, Chris Wright at Energy, RFK, Jr. at HHS. Kristi Noem is a work in progress. But few in the Congress are mentally healthy yet. Certainly not the darlings of the libertarian movement, Chip Roy and St. Thomas of Louisville, who are pure opposers and never created or built any coalition to do anything.. Fixing this won't come from Trump's leadership. Only so much he can do. Fixing this requires new people of a Kari Lake mentality, who absolutely don't care about the media---especially the douchesouffles at the Bullshit or National Rectum Online. We need congressmen with the fangs of Zeldin, Kennedy, Wright, Tom Homan and others in the administration. And that will not be a short process.
3) The House's version of Trump's "big, beautiful bill" has passed a key House obstacle after suffering a temporary defeat last week. On dropping Social Security taxes, House Rs say that the Senate has told them it's a non starter. Put it in anyway and make THEM take it out.
4) Biden officials admitted to being "awed" by Trump's incredible Middle East moves. "I wish I could work for an administration that moved that quickly," said one. But here's the reality: Trump has about three years to so solidify and establish peace and prosperity---so that any new administration can't undo it for decades---that he has to move fast.
5) Every once in a while the Wall Street Journal gets something right: What's the point of having a majority if you don't do anything with it? I have written at length about the utter suicide of the House (of course, not just under Republicans). The simple fact is that nature abhors a vaccum, and if the House won't act, a president will.
6) The FBI is moving out of its Washington HQ and 1,500 employees will be distributed across the U.S.
7) Nine inmates in New Orleans escaped from a jail in a hole behind the toilet. Shades of Shawshank. Meanwhile, a large sailing ship flying the Mexican flag crashed into the Brooklyn Bridge.
8) A new Emerson poll continues to make hash out of all those "Trump is underwater" pollsters, as he is at 47% approval in New Jersey---which he lost by 6! In fact, he is polling 6 points better than the DemoKKKrat governor, Phil Murphy. Meanwhile, the NC GOP net gained yet another 788 Rs. And
more good trend lines for the GOP as Miami-Dade, FL, one of that last big D holdouts there, flipped red with a GOP +38,000 gain in voter roll purges. Weird, huh, when you clean the voter rolls REPUBLICANS always gain? Why is that? Meanwhile, the one bright spot for DemoKKKrats, PA, where they have gained four weeks in a row, has steadily slipped (last week only +500) so it looks like the impact of the DemoKKKrat primary there is wearing off.
9) Good news out of OH as AG Dave Yost, not a bad guy but not a MAGA warrior, dropped out of the governor's race leaving Vivek Ramaswamy as the likely nominee. Vivek will wtill probably have to contend with former OSU football coach Jim Tressel.
10) A lunatic bombed a fertility clinic in Palm Springs, killing one, saying he never consented to being born.
11) Joe Biden has been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. When it was announced, I really wasn't even going to mention it. This demonic plague-carrier deserves no attention. But increasingly the uproar is "did he have cancer during his presidency?" OF COURSE. You don't get this level of advanced cancer overnight. Even leftist doctor Ezekiel Emmanuel says he had cancer as president. David ("Axehandle") Alexrod says that criticisms of Rutabaga's presidency should be more "muted." Nope many of us think his presidency was the cancer. And even lefoids like Chris "The Schlizz" Cilizza say we need to look at "what happened" In 2024. You butt-percolators got your rectal enhancements kicked, that's what. But wait! It looks like, thanks to investigative work by Jeff Childers, that Rutabaga himself said he had cancer in 2022, and not "skin cancer," but cancer (he said) from an "oil slick" But here is Jeff's key takeaway: "They didn’t only lie about Biden’s poor memory and inability to make decisions more complicated than what flavor of ice cream he wanted. They also lied about a terminal medical condition that —at best— guaranteed he couldn’t do the job. They lied about who would really be president."
12) FBI agents involved in tyrannical J6 Patriot Day crackdowns are begging for their names not to be released so we don't "name and shame" them. I say, shave their heads at the top of the capitol steps, strip them nekked, and have them walk to the Washington Monument with crowds shouting "Shame! Shame!"
13) Agriculture Secretary Brook Rollins announced a new website at the FDA where farmers can report if they have been subjected to lawfare by DemoKKKrats.
IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS
14) The Supes ruled that the Trump Administration was too hasty in attempting to deport some Venezuelan gangbangers, that two hours wasn't sufficient time for them to prove they were here legally, but did not rule on the broader issues of using the Alien and Enemies Act . . . yet. They punted again, though again, it appears they don't know how to make this work so they stay within the constitution and get rid of these people and yet "follow their heart" to let them stay. I'm beginning to think we're gonna get a Dred Scott or an Obamacare decision. Jeff Childers, the lawyer in "Coffee & Covid," has a great analysis of this at the bottom of his column. Simply put, the Supes punted back to the conservative Fifth Circuit to see if they were smart enough to figure a way out of this. You cannot deport masses and, at the same time, provide traditional immigration courts/judges for them. So, will courts admit there is a problem? But if they don't, what happens when there is a PROVEN real problem? As in war? Childers thinks that Trump is trying to make the case for suspension of Habeas corpus. But he'd have to convince a majority in both houses of Congress and find a filibuster-breaker in the Senate. Isn't going to happen. Or, he could do it and dare congress to impeach and remove him. Possible, but not likely. I do not see Trump, even with his success, being able to get a significant enough majority in 2026 to do this. Moreover, His very successis not working against him, making the issue less immediate. For all intents and purposes, the border IS CLOSED. (That doesn't help Trump!) With violent gangbangers gone, and cities "more" peaceful, only the economic argument remains and that's real---but harder to make for ordinary people. And, as Rasmussen polling shows, only 27% favor allowing Trump to just ignore the courts.
IN CULTURAL NEWS
15) The Trump Administration is preparing to lower the boom on Northwestern University by cutting off all its grants for ongoing DEI.
16) Stephen Soukup write that "woke is dead," but what comes after it---if history is a guide---will be worse.
17) Ryan Burge shows that as education levels increase, church attendance in the US increases, but decreases in Europe.
18) A report says Qatar dumped billions into US schools in the last decade. What? Like the Chi Coms or the leftist teachers' unions?
IN TRANSOID NEWS
19) There is major support for President Trump on most of his transoid policies.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
20) Construction on the Constitution Pipeline for oil and gas in New York could start in a couple of months, said Energy Sec Chris Wright.
21) Gee, it looks like foreign investors liked U.S. securities in March, despite the media hysteria.
22) Imagine that. The Wall Street Urinal says without "clean" energy subsidies, energy prices will rise. . . according to a study by a clean energy consultant.
23) The new Harvard/Harris poll on the economy shows 51% now think the economy is strong. That's a death sentence for DemoKKKrats in 2026. Oh, and Harvard still has money to poll? Who knew?
24) Having put the Jared scandal behind it, Subway is closing stores due to powerful competition from Jimmy John's and (my favorite) Jersey Mikes.
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
25) Hansjorg Wyss, called the "new Soros" for his leftoid idiocy, is facing a "jaw-dropping" lawsuit over harassment and assorted high jingo. It better be good. As in "billions" good.
26) A Swedish study showed an elevated risk of lymphoma among those who have tattoos. This is new commentary on a 2024 study.
27) Israel launched a new campaign in Gaza seeking to crush the last remnants of the Hamas Murder Pirates.
28) The ChiComs continue to try to circumvent tariffs. They must be demolished. No quarter.
29) The head of South Africa's racist party ANC National said that if foreign investors want property rights, they can go somewhere else. Good to know. Remember when South Africa had "apartheid?" And blacks from all over Africa IMMIGRATED there because of the economy?
30) The Huns are backtracking on nuke power now. Fine, just treat them like Iran and don't let them get a bomb. No one wants the Huns with a bomb.
31) White-faced capuchin monkeys on a remote island have been abducting baby Howler monkeys. I guess the Howlers do not accept their transoid kids' "identification" as another sex, and therefore are mentally oppressing them, and the capuchin monkeys respect their gender identity.
32) The "far right" surged in Portugal (read: moderates) while the "moderates" (read, Mostly leftists) won the election.
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
33) In a sobering video, Scott Adams of "Dilbert" fame says he has the same cancer as Rutabaga, that it has spread, and that he thinks he will be "checking out" this summer.
34) The CEO of the Communist Broadcast Network, Wendy McMahon, abruptly resigned, She doesn't agree on the "path forward" after CBS's legal team told them they had to straighten up and fly right or be bankrupted by Trump's lawsuit.
35) A stuntwoman with a promising career won a settlement worth about $10 million after a poorly designed stunt shattered her ankle in filming "Game of Thrones."
36) Marvel's "Thunderbolts" (aka the "New Avengers") crawls to break-even levels. Meanwhile, "Minecraft" nears the billion dollar mark.
IN CHINA VIRUS NEWS
37) By the way, Rutagaga couldn't wait to get another China Virus vax (4 in total), and now a report says "turbo prostate cancers" were one of the side effects tripling during the pandemic. Oh, they say it was the China Virus, but we know what they mean.
38) A new study from Pediatric Rheumatology says that the vax, not the China Virus, has long term negative impact on kids autoimmune system.
39) A worldwide embalmer study shows white fibrous clots after the China Virus vax.
40) The CDC and the FDA delayed health warnings on the China Virus vax for months, and didn't issue a "black box" warning for years. Trump should have been told immediately about the risks. He was not.
41) Just another "millions saved" China Virus vax study debunked.
AND FINALLY . . .
42) In PA, a man told the local "Roadhouse" restaurant he was going to have to send his beloved Great Dane, Iris," to the Rainbow Bridge. "Roadhouse" cooked the dog the meal of a lifetime. Good for you, Roadhouse. We gave our Stanley his favorite chicken. I miss him so much, even though he was a pain in the neck. Stan, meet Iris.
