As Opposed To Bud Light, Jaguar And Cracker Barrel, AE Demonstrates Sex Sells
American Eagle says its Sydney Sweeney “Great Jeans” campaign has boosted its stock price by 25 percent in its second fiscal quarter.
“The iconic fall denim campaign with Sydney Sweeney affirms we are the American jeans brand,” Jay Schottenstein, CEO of American Eagle said during the company’s earnings call Wednesday. “We saw record-breaking new customer acquisition and brand awareness cutting across age demographics and genders.”
Schottenstein also credited the company’s ad campaign featuring Travis Kelce, the future Mr. Taylor Swift. “Fueled by stronger product offerings and the success of recent marketing campaigns with Sydney Sweeney and Travis Kelce, we have seen an uptick in customer awareness, engagement, and comparable sales,” he added.
Gee, I can’t imagine why these ads would move product, even though sex has been moving product since mankind began:
All the Sydney pics and videos are at the link. She’s pretty hot.

Jeffrey Epstein survivor Lisa Phillips told reporters on Capitol Hill on Wednesday that victims are considering releasing a list of those tied to their abuse if the Department of Justice fails to disclose more documents.
Phillips made several press conference appearances in Washington as survivors advocate for Congress to pass bills that could offer additional protections for victims of sex trafficking, such as those who fell prey to the disgraced late financier Epstein.
“Several of us Epstein survivors have been discussing creating our own list of names,” Phillips said, adding, “We know the names. Many of us were abused by them.”

Once Again, Trump Is The Master Troll, 2 For 1 On LinkedIn And Obama
This is what my Trump hating friends couldn’t fathom. He’s always many steps ahead of the others. What’s more, those steps are usually pretty freaking awesome. I told him that the others were playing checkers and he’s playing 4D chess. I also get a schadenboner because LinkedIn is a liberal bastion of cringe and shit talking.
In a Final Boss move, he does this:
In a move reminiscent of President Bill Clinton staffers removing the “W” key from White House keyboards, someone on President Trump’s tech staff is trolling former Democrat employees of the executive branch via LinkedIn, by making sure 47’s photo appears in their online profiles.
If a Democrat worked in the Obama or Biden administration and lists that job in his or her profile, since “The White House” is the employer, the current president’s photo is displayed.
“Liberals HATE IT!” remarked Eric Daugherty on X.
? BREAKING: The White House on LinkedIn has changed their profile picture to Donald Trump, so even the people who worked for BIDEN from 2021-2025 have Trump’s face on their profile. Liberals HATE IT. ?

A Trump parody account on X imagined former President Obama opening his LinkedIn account:

Remarked a writer at Red State: “Once again, Trump and his team have outmaneuvered the Democrats. What are they going to do, delete the fact that they worked at the White House, probably the biggest job many of them have ever had? Are they going to nuke their entire profile because they just hate Trump that much?
Folks, if there’s one thing Donald Trump has mastered, it’s the art of memetic provocation. He’s basically the Troll Master General at this point.
This week, he revealed in an interview he’d be adding a portrait of Joe Biden’s autopen — yes, the autopen, not Biden himself — to his “Presidential Wall of Fame” in the newly renovated White House Rose Garden.
That was fantastic, but the encore may have been better.
Let’s put it this way: Former Obama and Biden staffers might want to check their LinkedIn profiles.
The White House set off a social media frenzy after it swapped out its official LinkedIn profile photo for a picture of Donald Trump. You know what that means? Anyone who lists working at the White House as part of his or her work experience — staff, interns, you name it — suddenly looks like they worked for Trump on their resume.

Liberal White Women And The Destruction Of A Civilization
Over the past four decades, participation in protests and demonstrations advocating policies that eventuate in the destruction of a culture and society have evolved into a full-time liberal female occupation. The majority of these protestors are 50+ year-old white women augmented by a vast number of vacuous college-educated white women of all age groups who together with their race-obsessed college-educated black female counterparts are mindlessly hellbent on destroying American civilization.
The societal damage that liberal females, and in particular white women, have wrought over the past four decades is bordering on the incalculable and brings to mind a quote from Helen Keller (1880-1968). In her autobiography The Story of My Life she wrote: “I think the degree of a nation’s civilization may be measured by the degree of enlightenment of its women.”
There is a direct correlation between the accelerated decline of American civilization over the past forty years and the rise of the outsized influence of unenlightened and supercilious liberal women.
Some years ago, I watched a panel discussion with a number of professors at a prestigious Ivy League university. These academics were regaling a naïve and worshipful audience of mostly white with a smattering of black women about the necessity of viewing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), the LGTBQ movement, and Third Wave Feminism as all-encompassing national civil rights battles.

FAFO: Wife Should Have Never Had Conjugal Visit
A four-time convicted murderer at a California prison was charged Friday with killing his wife during a November conjugal visit, the Amador County District Attorney’s Office told KCRA News.
Prosecutors said David Brinson strangled 62-year-old Stephanie Dowells during an overnight family visit in November 2024 at Mule Creek State Prison, according to the outlet. Brinson called staff just after 2 a.m.; Dowells was pronounced dead at 2:51 a.m., prison officials reportedly said.
“We have an innocent person coming to your jail or your prison. You have a duty to protect them. And they failed miserably. And now it’s time that they be held accountable,” Michael Oppenheimer, an attorney for Dowells’ family, told KCRA News.

When you are a DEI appointee, break the law, cheat the IRS and be a semi-lunatic about your crime, yes, you are the Asshole of the Week.
The Justice Department has filed a response to Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook’s lawsuit over her Monday firing – claiming that the President was within his right to boot her over allegations of mortgage fraud (with a third property disclosed by Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director Bill Pulte last night), and that Cook is “highly unlikely to prevail on the merits.”
Trump’s legal team argues that the Federal Reserve Act (FRA) gives the President “broad discretion” to remove governors “for cause” and that courts cannot second-guess that judgment:
The Federal Reserve Act (FRA) empowers the President of the United States to appoint (by and with the advice and consent of the Senate) the members of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 12 U.S.C. § 241. Those Governors serve for fixed terms, “unless sooner removed for cause by the President.” Id. § 242. The statute thus expressly contemplates that, even setting aside his Article II authority over principal officers, the President retains broad discretion to remove a Governor for “cause.”
Citing Reagan v. United States (1901) and Dalton v. Specter (1994), they write “Where a statute commits decisionmaking to the discretion of the President, judicial review of the President’s decision is not available,” therefore Cook cannot get a temporary restraining order allowing her to stay in her job.
Not only does her face kind of remind me of an asshole, she is helping the Fed screw Americans seeking a mortgage at a lower rate

Ranked: The World’s Most Expensive Cities to Live in 2025
From rent to groceries, the cost of living varies widely around the world.
In recent years, rising price pressures have only sharpened these disparities. While tech and financial hubs often face the steepest costs, local factors like currency and imports also drive up prices.
This infographic ranks the most expensive cities worldwide, based on data from Numbeo.
The Top 15 Most Expensive Cities Globally
For the rankings, cities are compared to New York City, which is set as the baseline of 100.
To provide a broad view of urban affordability, cities were analyzed on everyday expenses like food, transportation, and utilities, and housing costs. These were measured in a “Cost of Living Plus Rent Index”, with data as of mid-year 2025: entries per pageSearch:
| Ranking | City | Country | Cost of Living Plus Rent Index |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | New York, NY | 🇺🇸 U.S. | 100 |
| 2 | Zurich | 🇨🇭 Switzerland | 93.2 |
| 3 | Geneva | 🇨🇭 Switzerland | 90.6 |
| 4 | San Francisco, CA | 🇺🇸 U.S. | 85.3 |
| 5 | Basel | 🇨🇭 Switzerland | 83.9 |
| 6 | Lausanne | 🇨🇭 Switzerland | 83.4 |

The Hidden Cost Of Europe’s Free Education
My wife is Scandinavian. I’ve heard 3 decades of shit from them about free education, free medical, and free money if you can’t work or are going to school, or basically, if you are alive, you can suck off the system. There are a lot of illegals and goat herders who are getting free money also. Someone is paying for it.
The problem I point out is that their 70% tax rate is paying for this.
The other problem is that almost everyone in her family who got an operation had to either have it redone or had results that would be malpractice were it not socialized medicine.
Not all of her country finishes high school. So much for the education.
Even they don’t believe it is free anymore. Their argument couldn’t hold water as soon as I asked a couple of questions about how the economics work. They can be insufferable so the less we talk, usually the better, for me at least. You can only listen to so much shit before it gets old and it got old for me decades ago.
Now This:
Europe’s free university model is often seen as a triumph of modern society. With no crushing tuition bills, minimal student debt, and a promise of equal access, it sounds ideal. In countries like Germany and France, students pay only a small administrative fee, typically between $200 and $500 a year, compared to the staggering tuition costs in the US or UK. Many also receive financial aid in the form of grants that don’t need to be repaid, or low-interest loans based on need.
But behind the promises of fairness and opportunity lies a system that too often feels rigid, overcrowded, and uninspiring.
For all its accessibility, the reality of navigating these institutions can leave students feeling like just another number in a giant, bureaucratic machine.
When education is available to everyone, universities become packed. Lecture halls overflow, and personal contact with professors becomes rare. In many European countries, it is normal to attend classes with hundreds of other students. There is little space for discussion, feedback, or even questions.
You sit, you take notes, you pass or fail. It feels more like an assembly line than a place for learning. And the numbers explain why. In 2022, the European Union had 18.8 million students, about 7 percent of its total population, enrolled in tertiary education. In the United States, about 19.1 million people were enrolled in college during the 2024–25 academic year. In addition to similar enrollment figures, both the EU and the US have made higher education widely accessible. In the EU, where tuition is often free or heavily subsidized, higher education has been expanded to accommodate the majority. As of 2022, 44 percent of EU citizens aged 25–34 had completed a tertiary degree, compared to 50 percent in the US.
The two systems differ in structure. What sets these systems apart is not the number of students, but how education is delivered. European universities tend to rely on large lectures, rigid course pathways, and limited institutional competition. The result is a model built for efficiency over individualization. US institutions, by contrast, operate in a competitive, decentralized environment with a wider range of academic structures, including smaller colleges and more flexible program design.
When higher education is scaled to serve nearly everyone, as in much of Europe, it risks trading depth for throughput and personalization for administrative convenience. It works, but at the cost of treating education less as a journey and more as a bureaucratic process.
So I’m tired of hearing about their system. They are about to turn out a bunch of substandard students not to mention all of the illegals.

Try Making SNL Funny, That Might Work – Or Less Biased
I was around for the first seasons of SNL. Sure, I suffered through the bumble bees, but I got to see Chee-Burger, Samurai Chef, Bass-o-matic and Lord and Lady Douchebag.
NBC’s Saturday Night Live is preparing for what its creator and longtime producer Lorne Michaels described as a “significant shake-up” in the cast ahead of the launch of its 51st season this fall.
In an interview with Matthew Belloni of Puck, Michaels, 80, said decisions on which performers would remain on the sketch show will be finalized “in a week or so.”
While he did not name specific individuals, he confirmed that “several current cast members are expected to exit” before the season premiere on October 4.
When asked whether he intended to make changes ahead of the new season, Michaels responded simply: “Yes.”
He added that the announcement on cast adjustments will come shortly before production resumes.
The show enters its new season following the departure of cast members Punkie Johnson and Molly Kearney, who confirmed in early August that they would not return.
The current roster includes 17 players, with notable figures such as Colin Jost, Bowen Yang, and Kenan Thompson among the best-known names.

Oh, Now Disney Wants Men Back In Theaters After Years Of Catering To Feminism – Good Luck With That One
I’ve got news for you, unless you get rid of the woke crap, tell us stories with believable hero’s, you’ll stay the democratic part of the entertainment industry. You’ll never see us again. We’re the people cheering Gina Carino and Ron DeSantis.
A recent report from Variety claims that the top echelons of Disney are scrambling to figure out how to entice the male demographic back into theaters, specifically Gen Z men. Apparently, a media company alienating 50% of their audience base is, in fact, a bad business decision. The mind boggles…
Keep in mind, this is the same company that coined the phrase “The Force Is Female” and “Her-O” (instead of “Hero”…very clever). This is the same company that tried to embed gay and trans characters into movies for toddlers. This is the same company that actually went to war with the state of Florida to force them to accept LGBT and gender fluid indoctrination in public schools in opposition to the vast majority of the voting population.
Finally, this is the same company that tried to bait and switch legendary male heroes for feminist “Girl Boss” heroes in every significant action/fantasy/sci-fi franchise they own the rights to.
They turned Star Wars and Marvel, two of the biggest box office properties of all time, into the menstruation huts of the cinema world. They went from making billions per project, to bombing harder than Nagasaki in theaters and in streaming.
The crux of the problem is that media companies have systematically eliminated any factors that might remotely interest men. This was not an accident, they did this by design. This includes going to war against the “male gaze” and the archetype of the male protector (knight in shining armor). Female protagonists alone are not a deal breaker, but remove all femininity, all sex appeal and browbeat the audience with anti-male messaging about how women “don’t need no man” and there goes your biggest potential cash pool.
Disney has been at the forefront of the woke deconstructionist agenda to rewrite or destroy every masculine western pop culture figure of the past 50 years. They treated these icons as sacrificial lambs; joyfully slaughtered to appease the demonic gods of feminism. And now, they want the men they openly despise to come running back with wallets in hand?
That’s a new level of crazy. But hey, that’s Disney.

Cracker Barrel Trying To Overtake Jaguar In Wokeness
“Cracker Barrel” is currently trending on X (along with “Texas Democrats” and “Newscum”) with a reported 25,000 posts. The last time we checked in on Cracker Barrel was April of 2024, when its new CEO said the brand wasn’t as “relevant” as it used to be and that the brand had to be “revitalized.”
We’ve made fun of brand revitalizations before, such as the barely perceptible update to Walmart’s logo to Jaguaur’s radical and widely panned “woke” rebrand that tanked its sales. Cracker Barrel on Wednesday unveiled its revitalized logo, and people aren’t thrilled with it..

TOTAL CHAOS AT SEA: Massive BRAWL Erupts on Carnival Cruise Ship Over ‘CHICKEN TENDERS’ (VIDEO)
It’s been said that if a whole cruise ship sank, no one of importance would ever do (excepting the Titanic which had everyone against creating the Fed on board).
To me, it is a discount vacation for losers. In a way, it’s like fishing on a party boat. They blow the horn, lines out. The next horn, lines in. They let the cruisers go only as far as they can go when in port for a couple of hours to get their T-shirt or shell.
It seems one set of people seems to frequently ruin it for others. It’s a pattern.
A Carnival cruise ship turned into a floating fight club after a late-night brawl erupted among passengers reportedly over ‘chicken tenders.’
According to the New York Post, the melee erupted in the ship’s dining area around 2 a.m. Monday, the final day of its voyage back to Miami, when a dispute spiraled out of control and involved about two dozen passengers.
Video footage, which has since gone viral, shows a chaotic scene of several young cruisers throwing wild punches, knocking each other to the ground.
The confusion mirrors eyewitness accounts of shoes, phones, and personal items flying as the violence intensified.
Security eventually tried to intervene, but one guard could be seen running away and reaching for his radio instead of jumping into the fray.

While MSM Screamed “Climate Crisis”, Arctic Ice Loss Actually Slowed – For Tim O’Reilly Who Told Me Tides Were Rising
He turned out to be a troll in my timeline. The post was how the sea was rising and would swallow up miles of land around the world. The only thing that got swallowed were the global warming lies by the enviroweenies. My response was that history will prove that AGW and the Climate hoax they worship was wrong.
Here goes:
What the globalist corporate media once smeared as “conspiracy theory” and branded “misinformation” has turned out to be true: the climate crisis was merely an imaginary problem and an informational war on the minds of the taxpayer.
Why all the propaganda? Give Democrats cover for a massive heist of the U.S. Treasury, laundering taxpayer dollars through mysterious NGOs via the Green New Deal Inflation Reduction Act into radical leftist NGOs and politically connected green companies. It was never about saving the planet, as it turns out.
Between 2019, when socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez introduced the Green New Deal (which ultimately failed), and President Biden’s passage of the Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022, the globalists, their corporate media outlets, and dark-money-funded NGOs unleashed a propaganda blitz by flooding the airwaves with record levels of “climate crisis” stories and left millions of folks with climate anxieties.
As soon as the heist was over … those climate crisis headlines, according to Bloomberg data this month, quite literally evaporated.

Sorry, I Don’t Like Major League Baseball That Much
Last week, OutKick calculated that it would cost consumers $671.64 to stream every NFL game from the start of the 2025 season to the Super Bowl — about $111.94 per month for six streaming services carrying NFL games this season.
And while that number may cause baseball fans to chuckle, streaming won’t be much cheaper for them.
According to the New York Times, Apple and NBC are the frontrunners for Sunday Night Baseball and first-round playoff games, Netflix is a frontrunner for the Home Run Derby, and ESPN is looking at rights for weekday games.
In the event that all comes to fruition, starting next season, streamers will need the following services to have access to all nationally televised baseball games:
- Peacock (NBC games): $10.99/mo
- Fox One: $19.99/mo
- Netflix: $22.99/mo
- ESPN DTC: $29.99/mo
- HBO Max (TBS games): $9.99/mo
- Apple TV+ (Friday night games and possibly Sunday night games): $9.99

Screw Global Warming – Companies Grabbing As Much Energy Possible For AI
AI took us from micromanaging light bulbs to Microsoft re-starting 3 Mile Island because they need the power to run their engine. It’s like the made up climate crisis never happened.
Now, companies (and China) are racing to get their hands on as much power-generating capacity.
Here are some links and info:
Google to Spend $9 Billion in Oklahoma to Expand AI, Cloud Infrastructure
Zuckerberg “Focused” On Building Mega Gigawatt-Size Data Centers
How Much Power Do Data Centers Use? (link below)
Data center demand is rising at a break neck speed, with little signs of slowing.
As the electricity consumption of AI rises, by 2028, a projected 12% of U.S. electricity demand could be driven from data centers. Beyond America, countries are pouring billions into AI sovereignty efforts which require data center facilities running 24/7 to power them.
This graphic, via Visual Capitalist’s Dorothy Neufeld, shows data center demand as a share of total power consumption, based on data from the IEA.
The Boom in Data Center Demand
Here is the share of each region’s total power demand that is driven by center centers:
As we can see, America’s data center demand leads globally, at 8.9% of total power consumption.
In Virginia, data centers account for 26% of the state’s total power consumption—or nearly triple the national average. This year, the state’s leading utility firm expects to connect 15 new data centers given surging demand.
As big tech ramps up AI spending, a significant share is being funnelled into massive data centers along with the energy sources that power them. In particular, demand for nuclear is expanding at the fastest rate in decades.
By comparison, data centers comprise 4.8% of the total power share in the European Union and 2.3% in China.

The inmates making quadruple murderer Bryan Kohberger’s time in prison a living hell knew he was coming to the high-security Idaho lockup and planned how they could carry out a campaign of harassment against him, according to a report.
Kohberger was transferred from jail to the only high-security prison in the state after he received four life sentences last month for the gruesome slayings of four University of Idaho students in 2022.
And the prisoners at Idaho Maximum Security Institution in Kuna “were aware he was coming,” former homicide detective Chris McDonough told NewsNation Tuesday.

Pentagon Awards Contracts To 4 Artificial Intelligence Developers
Nothing could go wrong here. Maybe they can develop a Wopr from War Games.
The U.S. Department of Defense announced on July 14 that it has awarded contracts to four U.S.-based artificial intelligence (AI) developers to address national security challenges. (will they announce how much it’s going to run over budget?)
Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, and xAI will each receive a contracting award with a ceiling of $200 million, according to a statement shared by the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office.
The office said these four companies would help “develop agentic AI workflows across a variety of mission areas.”
“Agentic AI” refers to systems designed to operate with minimal human input.
Formed in 2021, the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office is responsible for speeding up the military’s adoption of AI systems.
OpenAI was the first of the four contract awardees to announce its contract with the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office.
In June, the company unveiled “OpenAI for Government” and said its first partnership under the new initiative would help the Pentagon office identify and prototype new AI tools for administrative operations.
Anthropic has developed the Claude family of AI chatbots.
In June, Anthropic announced the development of custom “Claude Gov” models intended for national security clients.
The company said agencies operating at the highest level of the U.S. national security sector are already using these AI models.
Formed by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk in 2023, xAI serves as a parent to X Corp., which operates the social media platform X. Among its services, xAI has developed the Grok AI chatbot.
On July 14, xAI announced “Grok for Government” and confirmed that the service holds contracts with the Department of Defense and the U.S. General Services Administration.
Google Public Sector Vice President Jim Kelly said in a July 14 blog post that the new AI announcement with the Department of Defense would build on a long-standing partnership between Google and the U.S. military.
Kelly said his company would give the military access to its Cloud Tensor Processing Units, which power Google’s current AI applications.
“These advanced AI solutions will enable the DoD to effectively address defense challenges and scale the adoption of agentic AI across enterprise systems to drive innovation and efficiency with agile, proven technology,” Kelly wrote.

Mini-Golf Russian Roulette
Talk about getting more than you bargained for …
When it comes to mini-golf, putt-putt, whatever you want to call it, it’s supposed to be nothing but pure fun. Hell, it’s great to do while on vacation, I’ve done it countless times. But for one California mother, a round ended up becoming a thoroughbred nightmare.
From Venice, Adela Magana and her family went to Golf N’ Stuff mini-golf course and amusement park to celebrate the 13th birthday of her son on Aug. 6. She was on a bench sitting down watching her kids play, and then BOOM, a palm tree reportedly fell down and crashed on her.
Along with two other individuals who were playing mini-golf that night, the father of the family, Amando, and his 22-year-old son, Junior, ran over to get the 40-foot tree off her. However, the damage was already done, and it was bad. Per the Ventura County Star, Adela’s right arm was lost following Ventura County Medical Center doctors amputating it right under the shoulder one day after the tree crushed it.

I went right to fag also. Being liberal makes sense. A lot of them aren’t in the manly category in anything. The girlfriend angle is a good one though.
A new YouGov poll confirms that normal Americans aren’t too offended by American Eagle’s new ad campaign featuring actress Sydney Sweeney.
And that’s certainly not a shocker. Of course, the backlash to the ad came mostly from left-wing scolds obsessed with race and jealous of Sweeney.
According to the poll, only 12% of Americans found it “offensive.” That number sounds about right. Most well-adjusted people who don’t spend their days refreshing the MSNBC opinion section every minute or combing through LGBT Reddit threads are going to find the ad perfectly normal. Maybe not clever, and maybe not offensive, but just a typical advertisement that relies on the most tried-and-true strategy ever: sex sells.

DEI At the DC Police Force? Chief Doesn’t Know What Chain Of Command Is (Because you don’t need one with DEI, It’s beyond the Peter Principle)
Washington D.C. Police Chief Pamela A. Smith was humiliated earlier today after revealing that she apparently doesn’t know what the term “chain of command” means.
During a press briefing, a reporter asked Smith “Do you know what the chain of command is now?” referring to President Trump having deployed National Guard troops to the capital to restore law and order.
Smith looked puzzled and responded “What does that mean?”
If you care, there is a lot more here.
Trump announced the deployment of approximately 800 National Guard troops to D.C. alongside the federalization of the city’s Metropolitan Police Department, citing a “public safety emergency” due to what he described as rampant crime and lawlessness in the nation’s capital.
Trump invoked Section 740 of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, which allows the president to take control of the police for up to 48 hours during emergencies, extendable to 30 days with congressional notification, to justify this unprecedented move.
He claimed the city had been “overtaken by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals,” pointing to high-profile incidents like the assault of a former Department of Government Efficiency staffer during an attempted carjacking.

Lab Grown Meat Update
First of all, throw out any lab grown garbage you have and eat real meat.
Next, Bill Gates is up to no good again
Finally, No one really eats it it looks like, as Lewis Hamilton just lost his ass on fake food.
Neat Burger, a restaurant chain co-founded by seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton, has entered liquidation.
The business was launched six years ago with a plant-based menu, with the chain also backed by Hollywood superstar Leonardo DiCaprio.
A number of restaurants were opened in London, while doors were also opened in Milan and New York.
However, it has been struggling financially over the last handful of years, with reported losses from 2022 being in the £7.9 million range – up from £3.2 million from the year before.
In 2023, it announced half of its UK restaurants would close, before the New York facility shut its doors for the final time last summer.
In a further blow, the company cited financial and operational challenges behind its decision to close the remaining restaurants earlier this year.
It has now emerged that Neat Burger has appointed FRP Advisory as its liquidator on July 22.

Money Or Love? What Did Gen Z Pick?
The best looking girl I ever took to bed told me that her answer was Money. Her voice had a southern accent that would melt you if you got past her beauty.
Anyway, after that comment, I knew from that instant we would be nothing but bed buddies. What kills me is that I was broke at the time. All I had to offer was a good time, no frills. A girl like that could get anyone, but gave me a few months of her life. She got her millionaire eventually (and got rid of him). I got free from a lot of future head and heartaches.
Now this…….
Nearly Half of Gen Z Say They Would Choose Financial Stability Over Love
In a heartbreaking sign of just how badly the Biden-Harris economic disaster has affected America’s youth, a shocking new survey revealed that nearly half of Gen Z, 46 percent, would abandon all hope of romance for money.
Matchmaking company Tawkify surveyed 1,000 Americans to “explore how daters today weigh love, money, and emotional baggage,” and the results were disheartening.
The pollsters found:
Millennials are likeliest to choose love over money: 59% would prioritize a “broke and magical” relationship over financial security compared to 54% of Gen Z, 48% of baby boomers, and 46% of Gen X.
Gen X is the most financially pragmatic, with 52% choosing security over romance.
Women are likelier than men to choose love over money: 58% of women would prioritize a “broke and magical” relationship over financial security, compared to only 51% of men.
Nearly 7 in 10 Americans (69%) have stayed in a relationship longer than they should have due to shared finances; 44% of these situations were temporary, and 25% were long-term.
Not only would Gen Z give up love for cash, the pollsters found that 29 percent would consider “reuniting with an ex-partner if that person became wealthy.”
So just like the girl who gave me the goods for a few months, they are shallow. The good part was that I worked with the girl I was sleeping with. These days it would get you fired, but not then.
For the record, Terry from GMC, it was you.

‘Now it’s quiet, we can swim’ – After foreigners banned from Swiss pool, season ticket sales surge and police incidents stop
SHARE
After all foreigners were banned from a Swiss swimming pool in Porrentruy over violence, sexual harassment and constant disturbances, Swiss visitors to the pool and employees are generally expressing happiness with the move.
The ban, which came about after “French youths with a migration background” continuously caused problems at the pool and in pool bathrooms, including sexual harassment of young girls. The situation even sparked international headlines.
However, the Swiss paper 20 Minuten reported a surge in season ticket sales after the ban was put in place.
“It went very well. Citizens have rediscovered the bathing establishment with the peace and quiet that comes with it,“ said Lionel Maître, the municipal councilor for tourism and leisure in Porrentruy. “We have seen an increase in season ticket sales as citizens have finally regained the long-awaited sense of security. There have been no problems and no new bathing bans since then.”
Maître said that it had become increasingly noticeable that the perpetrators had Arabic names.
Apollo News also reported that the need for security has suddenly disappeared since the ban on foreigners.

Beijing Pays Influencers In Africa To Spread Anti-US Messaging
Why do we want to be friends with them? Why did the Clintons and Bidens sell out to them? Money over country?
JOHANNESBURG—Chinese and Russian agents are paying social media influencers in Africa to spread anti-U.S. messages worldwide, with the Trump administration being a top target, media experts say.
Their research reveals that many influencers who use the TikTok platform are earning hundreds to thousands of dollars per month by disseminating misinformation, disinformation, and propaganda that benefits Beijing and Moscow.
The studies align with information presented to Congress on July 22 by U.S. President Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the U.S. military in Africa.
Analysts say China, Russia, and other malign actors are taking advantage of an information void created by the White House’s decision to cut financial aid to Africa, which has impacted the funding of media previously supported by the U.S. government.
In 2024, the Washington-based Africa Center for Strategic Studies documented nearly 200 pro-Kremlin and pro-China social media campaigns in each major region of Africa, with the Chinese regime’s influencers particularly active in Southern and West Africa.
One of Africa’s most popular social media figures has told The Epoch Times she’s receiving money to distribute information that makes Russia and China “happy.”
“This is mostly messages about Trump,” she said, asking that her name be withheld so that she didn’t “anger” her employers and lose income.
She said influencers working for Moscow and Beijing receive payments online via sites that facilitate paid promotions, with South Africa’s Lit marketplace one of the more popular systems.
“The money we’re making like this can be a few thousand dollars every month; it all depends on how popular our posts turn out,” she said.
A Chinese guy I worked with said to never trust the Chinese. The first rule of doing business is don’t use the 10 commandments (that’s right, lie, cheat, steal, murder others and try to get God out of the country)
Those bastards are sending fentanyl to the US, spying on us, disrupting out power grid, flying balloons over us and buying our politicians.

She’s A Girl, If She Can’t Get Laid, It’s Her Fault
If a girl went into the forrest, and said I want some dick tonight, guys from 1000’s of miles away would be there shortly. What’s wrong with this girl? Most of the time, girls decide when the pounding is going to go down because they get offered some dick about 100 times a day. Just look at the high school teachers. They pick out the one and start wailing away.
A Harris County constable deputy is facing scrutiny after a TikTok post went viral suggesting she planned to issue tickets indiscriminately because of a lack of intimacy in her personal life, as reported by The New York Post.
The post, made by Harris County Precinct 5 Deputy Jennifer Escalera, has sparked public backlash and prompted an internal affairs investigation.
The video, which has since been deleted, showed Deputy Escalera in uniform writing on a notepad.
The caption over the clip read, “Didn’t get cracked last night so everyone is getting a ticket,” suggesting that her ticketing decisions might be influenced by her personal frustrations. Although parts of her uniform were blurred, Escalera’s name tag remained visible in the footage.

Cincy Mayor – I’ve Got Better Things To Do Than Worry About A Couple Of White People Getting Beat Senseless
Mayor of Cincinnati Aftab Pureval has more important things to do than worry about a pair of Caucasians viciously beaten by a black mob — like restricting our right to bear arms so that we cannot defend ourselves. That’s why he couldn’t be bothered to reach out to the victims:

“Better Things To Do”
Don’t tell me the reason that you’re calling
Is to see if I’m all right since you’ve been gone
‘Cause I know you and I know why we’re talking
You’re wanting me to say I’m barely hanging on
Well, maybe that was true for a night or two
But now, I got better things to do
[Chorus:]
I could wash my car in the rain
Change my new guitar strings
Mow the yard just the same as I did yesterday
I don’t need to waste my time crying over you
I got better things to do
Maybe when I don’t have so much going
Or quite so many irons in the fire
I’ll take the time to miss you like you’re hoping
But now, I can’t put forth the effort it requires
Well, I’d love to talk to you, but then, I’d miss Donahue
That’s right, I got better things to do
[Repeat Chorus]
Check the air in my tires
Straighten my stereo wires
Count the stars in the sky or just get on with my life
I don’t need to waste my time crying over you
I got better things to do
I got better things to do

Tired Of Your Pet, Feed Him To The Lions In Denmark
Seriously, what is in the water over there? Maybe this is what is rotten in Denmark.
There is no way I’m sending my pet to get euthanized and eaten. I’m not a savage. Maybe they couldn’t hold back that Viking gene and had to kill something to feed it to the predators. Anyway, there is no way this was going to turn out good the minute some pissed off girl sends her ex’s pet to the zoo for lunch.
A zoo in Denmark is asking for donations of small pets as food for its predators.
The Aalborg zoo said it is trying to mimic the natural food chain of the animals housed there “for the sake of both animal welfare and professional integrity” and offers assurances the pets will be “gently euthanized” by trained staff.
The zoo in northern Denmark explained in a Facebook post that “if you have a healthy animal that needs to be given away for various reasons, feel free to donate it to us.”
The zoo points to guinea pigs, rabbits, and chickens as possible donations. After being euthanized, the animals will be used as fodder, the zoo said.
“That way, nothing goes to waste — and we ensure natural behavior, nutrition and well-being of our predators,” the zoo said.
The online call for pet donations is accompanied by a picture of a wildcat baring its teeth with its mouth wide open and a link to the zoo’s website, noting the facility also is interested in receiving horses.

They Buried The Truth To Destroy Trump
excerpt:
Washington was still in a stupor in the weeks following the shocking—at least to some—election of Donald J. Trump as the 45th President of the United States. Precisely a month after Election Day, the next chapter of the story began.
On December 8, 2016, President Obama was scheduled to receive a classified President’s Daily Brief (PDB) the following day, which would assess Russian interference in the 2016 election.
The verdict? “Russian and criminal actors did not impact recent U.S. election results” through cyber means. The Intelligence Community (IC) expressed only “low-to-moderate confidence” that any foreign operation had even attempted to tamper with election infrastructure.
The facts were clear: no votes had changed, and no election systems had been breached.
Before December 8, internal IC consensus held that Russia lacked both the intent and the capability to corrupt the vote. A September 12 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) had concluded that foreign adversaries “do not have and will probably not obtain the capabilities to successfully execute widespread and undetected cyberattacks” on U.S. election infrastructure.
Yet by mid-December, the CIA publicly attributed intent not merely to disrupt but to help Trump win—a stark departure from what agencies, including the FBI and CIA, had privately concluded.

Why Create These Virus Strains – Japan Creates Frankenstein Bird Flu Virus With New Immunological Traits
According to a new study published last week in NPJ Vaccines, Japanese researchers engineered an entirely new strain of bird flu, combining the genetic material of two separate wild viruses to create what they call Vac-3: a pathogen that is “a reassortant virus between A/duck/Hokkaido/101/2004 (H5N3) and A/duck/Hokkaido/262/2004 (H6N1).”
This lab-built virus—A/duck/Hokkaido/Vac-3/2007 (H5N1)—was never observed in nature.
It was artificially assembled, grown in eggs, concentrated, and inactivated with formalin to become the whole-particle vaccine used in long-term testing on nonhuman primates.
The new study comes after NIH-funded researchers at the University of Georgia, Mount Sinai, and Texas Biomed were caught engineering lab-made H5N1 bird flu viruses—one of which killed 100% of exposed mammals—using synthetic DNA constructs and then deliberately infecting live dairy cows, all under the same $59 million federal contract that has also been tied to mammal-adapted, drug-resistant strain development.
Japan is also working with U.S. scientists on other projects to build lab-made horse-human influenza hybrids that replicate 100 times faster than natural strains using aborted fetal cells engineered with the cancer-linked SV40 virus, also under the banner of vaccine development.
All of these developments raise fears that another man-made pandemic is on the horizon, as Congress, the White House, the Department of Energy, the FBI, and the CIA have acknowledged that a lab-related incident involving gain-of-function research is most likely the origin of COVID-19.

I’m Shocked – Liberal Women Are America’s Unhappiest, Study Finds
Progressive politics may promise empowerment, but for many liberal women, the result appears to be rising misery and isolation.
A growing body of data points to a clear trend: liberal women are statistically the most dissatisfied and mentally unwell demographic in the country, and experts say it may have more to do with worldview than circumstance.
According to a 2024 survey from the Institute for Family Studies (IFS), just 12% of liberal women aged 18-40 report being “completely satisfied” with their lives.
In contrast, 37% of conservative women in the same age group report full satisfaction, a difference that speaks volumes.
The findings come from the 2024 American Family Survey, which also shows that liberal women are two to three times more likely to say they are “not satisfied” with their lives.
Marriage and faith, two traditional anchors of community and stability, may play a key role in the satisfaction divide.
56% of conservative women in the study are married, while only 37% of liberal women are.
Church attendance reflects a similar gap: 53% of conservative women attend religious services weekly, compared to just 12% of liberal women.
That detachment from relational and spiritual communities may be fueling widespread loneliness.
Nearly 30% of liberal women report frequent loneliness, while only 11% of conservatives say the same.
“These women are lacking key support systems that help weather life’s inevitable challenges,” said Brad Wilcox, a senior fellow at IFS.
“We’ve seen in the research that conservative women tend to be more likely to embrace a sense of agency and to have the sense that they are not, in any way, the victim of larger structural realities or forces.
“They’re also less likely to catastrophize about public events and concerns and more likely to think of themselves as captains of their own fate.”
worst of all, they can be counted on as a liberal voting block. Few groups have tried to ruin our country as viligently as them

See, It’s Sh*t Like This That Pisses Me Off – Insider confirms scheme under Obama to manipulate intelligence to hurt Trump – Part II
An insider in America’s intelligence community who now has turned whistleblower says he refused to concur in the manipulated intelligence assessment created under Barack Obama that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help candidate Donald Trump, and immediately was excluded from further discussions.
Further, his concerns about the falsehoods being pushed by that agenda were ignored, he said.
A report in the Washington Times cites the whistleblower, unidentified, in explaining he was pressured by his Obama administration superiors to go along with the staged arguments.
Evidence being found in newly declassified documents suggests that Hillary Clinton fabricated the Russiagate scandal for Trump because of concerns voters would remember her scandalous behavior when she put national secrets on an unsecured computer server she set up.
The documents also suggested the campaign to fabricate claims of links between Trump’s campaign and Russia was aided by Democrat officials from Obama down.
More information has been promised, and multiple Obama-era officials already have been referred to the Department of Justice for investigation and possible charges.
The Examiner reported the senior U.S. intel official confirmed he was pressured to endorse the false conclusions created under the anti-Trump scheme, and then he was cut out of discussions.
I know every one of them is going to walk, including Hillary who should do time more than the rest. I’ll settle for Susan Rice doing time.

The Free Ride Is Over, Student Loan Interest Resumes August 1st
FWIW, Covid was a tool by DC, not an emergency.
Starting Friday, federal student loans under the SAVE (“Saving on a Valuable Education”) repayment plan will begin accruing interest again. This affects approximately 7.7 million to 8 million borrowers, said federal stats — interest had been paused during ongoing legal action.
Advocacy group estimates suggest this will cost the typical borrower around $3,500 per year in interest, which breaks down to about $300 extra per month on average, according to the Education Department.
Courts invalidated key provisions of the SAVE program, including the zero‑interest feature. A court injunction requires loan servicers to begin charging interest again starting Friday.
The U.S. federal government suspended interest on student loans—and paused payments and collections—primarily due to the COVID‑19 emergency.

FAFO About Alligators In Florida
Another idiot who can’t leave nature alone.
Luckily for us, the woman who did exactly that got dished with some instant karma, and considering how she only lost a flip flop, I would just count my losses and move on if I was her. To make this video even better, it’s narrated by a woman from the United Kingdom, so the accent adds a little bit of classiness to go along with wild Florida behavior.
Per a report from Fox 35 Orlando, footage has been circulating after Sarah Louise Martin posted it on her TikTok. She was on vacation from the U.K. in an alligator hotspot in Kissimmee, Florida, which is right outside of Orlando.
The video starts with the woman showing a pond with a group of deer hanging out beside it, but it wasn’t just the deer, an alligator also happened to be in attendance.
For the most part, the deer didn’t mind the gator doing his thing, despite the reptile making its way over to them. This ended up provoking some other lady to take action to get rid of the alligator and be a savior to the deer. But the problem was, like I said, she was interfering with nature and a hungry gator, which is completely unnecessary.
She attempted to get the gator to go away by tossing not one, but two flip-flops at it, but the gator clearly wasn’t a fan. So what does it decide to do?
By snatching one of her flip-flops and running into the lake with it — absolutely glorious!
I grew up there. We learned not to fuck with the gators or the snakes. They are playing a home game.

The Problems With LinkedIn
I asked AI to tell me about the state of the application. To be transparent, I loathe it and find it full of Facebook behavior and cringeworthy posts about how their jobs are better than they actually are. When you are forced to act positive to pay your bills, you’ll do a lot of things and say a lot of things. I won’t, which is why I make fun of it.
When it went woke, I changed personal information like I now attended Faber College (Knowledge Is Good) and was in the Delta Tau Chi Fraternity. I rarely go there as I never liked many of the people I had to work with. I’m connected to people who I don’t even know who they are now.
If they read this and kick me off the platform, my life will stay the same.
Anyway…..
LinkedIn is widely known as the premier professional networking platform, but it has several notable downsides that users frequently criticize. Here are some of the major negative aspects of LinkedIn:
- Superficial Connections: Many users accumulate large networks filled with contacts who never engage meaningfully. This leads to bloated connection lists that dilute the value of professional relationships, as people accept connection requests without real interaction or intent to collaborate
.
Decline in Professionalism: As LinkedIn incorporates more social media-style features, posts often mix personal anecdotes, motivational quotes, memes, and other non-professional content. This shift can clutter users’ feeds and make it harder to find truly valuable industry insights
.
Engagement Fatigue: LinkedIn pushes frequent posting and interaction, which can cause burnout. Users may feel pressured to constantly share updates or personal stories, leading to diminished quality of engagement or avoidance of the platform altogether
.
Privacy Concerns: LinkedIn collects extensive personal and professional data that can be accessed by many parties, including third-party apps and advertisers. Despite privacy settings, users’ work histories and contact info may be visible to unintended audiences, raising concerns about data security and professional repercussions
Recruiter Messages and Spam: Users often receive generic or overly persistent messages from recruiters offering “amazing opportunities” without clear details. The recruitment process on LinkedIn sometimes feels impersonal and overbearing, causing frustration
.
Paid Features and Double-Dipping: LinkedIn charges employers for job postings but also offers paid options for applicants to appear higher in candidate lists. This “pay-to-win” approach can erode trust in the fairness of job applications and make desperate applicants look vulnerable
.
Inauthentic Endorsements: The endorsements feature, meant to validate skills, is often abused through reciprocal endorsement schemes, leading many to distrust their legitimacy. Users prefer direct personal references over these watered-down public endorsements
.
Pressure to Maintain a Polished Professional Image: Users may feel stressed to constantly portray an idealized version of themselves, leading to a lack of authenticity and anxiety around online presence. This pressure can create a gap between true skills and the curated profile displayed
.
Content Overload and Quality Decline: In the race for visibility, some users share low-value or repetitive posts, which reduces overall content quality. Finding useful and relevant information amid the noise becomes challenging
.
Algorithmic Bias and Networking Barriers: LinkedIn’s reliance on connections can disadvantage users with smaller networks, creating barriers to access jobs and professional opportunities. Networking pressure and algorithmic choices may favor some profiles over others unfairly
.
Customer Service and Billing Issues: Some users report unexpected charges, difficulty canceling paid services, and poor customer support responsiveness regarding billing disputes, contributing to user dissatisfaction
.
Annoying or Irrelevant Connection Requests: Many LinkedIn users receive random or spammy connection requests, often from salespeople or automated bots, which undermines the platform’s professional integrity
.
Toxic Positivity and Questionable Content: The platform sometimes promotes overly optimistic or non-substantive posts, which can feel disingenuous or out of place for a professional network
- .
These points highlight that while LinkedIn is a powerful tool for professional networking and career development, it is not without significant flaws. Users must navigate issues with privacy, content quality, network authenticity, and platform commercialization while managing their own professional image carefully. Being aware of these challenges can help users better leverage LinkedIn’s benefits while avoiding its pitfalls.

They beat up their only star who can put butts in the seats, Caitlin Clark. They hate players who are straight and white. They want the same money as the NBA, but can’t beat a boys’ High School Team.
I tried watching it and the product isn’t very good except Caitlin
This has to hurt Angel’s pride …
Ice Cube and his BIG3 basketball league offered a $5 million contract to Indiana Fever phenom Caitlin Clark for her to come play for the new operation, with Clark turning down the deal ultimately. But if you thought that would open up a massive payday for her loud-mouthed rival Angel Reese, you ended up being wrong — way wrong.
TMZ Sports happened to chop it up with Cube recently while he was at LAX, questioning if there were any plans to make Reese a similar offer to Clark’s. Cube was real about it, saying that Reese might not be able to get that kind of figure. (RELATED: Jeopardy Contestant Has Big Swing And Miss With ‘Who Is Caitlin Clark?’ Answer)
Cube stressed that he doesn’t have a problem whatsoever with Reese, but he was completely honest about the BIG3’s sponsors and their ability to be able to make the Chicago Sky superstar such an offer. Per Cube, the sponsors believe Clark would bring in a ton of money for the league, but “they didn’t tell us the same thing about Angel Reese.”
The legendary rapper closed out by saying, “I don’t know if we can make that same offer.”
I wouldn’t want Angel Reese either. She’s not very good, just big. They are starting a league becuase the WNBA sucks that much

WNBA Hits New Level Of Embarrassment After Game Stops Over … Wig?
The biggest joke of a sports league keeps getting to be more of a joke, even with a bonified superstar, Caitlin Clark, whom they beat the shit out of every game.
I knew women were sensitive about their hair, but damn!
Despite having Indiana Fever phenom Caitlin Clark and her heated rivalry with Chicago Sky superstar Angel Reese, the WNBA is a league that you just can’t take seriously considering how dysfunctional it is.
Just look at what happened Sunday in the game between the Phoenix Mercury and Washington Mystics that ended up temporarily halting action. A player lost their wig, and it led to an incredible amount of embarrassment, and yes, more than just stopping the contest.
The player in question was Mercury guard Kahleah Copper, who grabbed her wig and then sprinted off the court back to the locker room. Copper’s wig fell off after being snatched by her teammate Jade Melbourne, who was attempting to get over on a screen.
The WNBA is a joke right now. They have a couple of stars and a bunch of girls who are playing PE level sports

Climate Change Narrative Getting Killed By Facts (and cooler weather) – There Never Was A Crisis
Here’s what the ECMWF is forecasting for Europe the next 7 days:
Source: ECMWF via Snowfan.
Earlier this year, the usual suspects were putting out horror scenarios of a summer of heat and drought across Europe in 2025. The most extreme model runs, with temperatures soaring to 45°C, were presented as serious forecasts and as being worrying evidence of runaway climate change.
But now the opposite has occurred and the fear-mongers are now either quiet or simply distorting the facts.
Especially in Central Europe, like across Germany, the weather has turned cool and rainy.
Germany’s Das Wetter.com here recently has since warned of 30 com of snowfall in the Alps – in July!:
Anyone who thought the last few weeks had been cool and changeable should dress warmly. Because from Monday, temperatures across Germany will continue to plummet. This is due to a wave of cold Arctic air rushing in from the far north. Highs of under 20 degrees will then be the reality in many places – in July!”
Heavy snow in the Alps in July
In his article, meteorologist Johannes Habermehl then adds that the snow line in the Alps will be dropping “to just 2500 meters – in some places even lower”, with some forecasting “up to 30 centimetres of fresh snow” at higher altitudes.
And that’s during peak summer!
And this:
Lowest Six-Month Human Death Toll From Bad Weather Since Records Began
Something rather odd is happening to the weather. Millions, nay billions, are on the move fleeing droughts, floods, wildfires, runaway temperatures, rising sea levels (see any mainstream media page climate page to fill in rest of sentence). Armageddon will only be put on pause when hard-Left elites take control of the climate and corral us all into their fantasy world of Net Zero. But hold on a minute – news just in. The first half of 2025 has seen the smallest number of deaths related to extreme weather since records began. And more weird weather news – despite boiling seas, all four northern hemisphere ocean basins in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific are running below average on accumulated cyclone energy. The North Atlantic has seen very little activity with the ACE energy measurement from January 1st to July 21st running at only 41% of the 1991-2020 average.
The cyclone news is natural variation of course, but don’t let on to climate fanatics. The news on deaths from extreme weather is not. It is a long-term trend that has seen weather fatalities plunge by over 99% during the last 100 years. As hydrocarbon use pulls billions out of grinding poverty, so fortunate humans can use the extra wealth to protect themselves against all that Nature throws at life on Earth.
So for people I had to work with like Tom Raftery, Tim O’Reilly and James Governor, the gig is up and so are the lies, but go on believing your religion.
And this gem:
By the numbers the scam is almost comical: 384 individual charging ports, $7.5 billion burned, $19.5 million per plug. That’s enough to buy every Tesla owner in America a home charger—twice—yet all taxpayers got was a handful of glorified parking spots.
WHO POCKETED THE CASH? • EVgo, ChargePoint, and Electrify America—all heavy Democratic donors—walked away with the biggest CFI grants. • The Greenlining Institute, NAACP Climate Initiative, and West Harlem Environmental Action were hired as “equity consultants” at $1,200 an hour to ensure 40 % of funds flowed to “underserved communities” per Biden’s 2021 “Justice40” diktat. • BlueGreen Alliance (a coalition of the Sierra Club and the United Steelworkers) lobbied for set-asides that require every single station to use union-only labor—driving costs up another 30 %. • BlackRock’s Climate Finance Partnership skimmed management fees on green bonds floated to finance the program.

Passengers Spring into Action After Deranged Man on Flight to Scotland Makes Bomb Threat and Threatens Trump: “I’m Going to Bomb the Plane…Death To Trump…Allahu Akbar!”
Shocking footage has emerged online showing a deranged Islamist threatening to blow up a plane and threatening President Trump before passengers manage to save the day.
On Sunday, an EasyJet flight to Glasgow, Scotland, from Luton, England, was diverted after a passenger threatened to blow up the plane. As TGP readers know, Trump is currently in Scotland for trade meetings and to play golf.
In the footage, a man of apparent Middle Eastern descent is seen standing in the aisle calling for Trump’s death and announcing to the world he had a bomb.
“I’m going to bomb the plane!” the madman can be heard saying in the video. “Death to America! Death to Trump!”
He proceeds to scream “Allahu Akbar!” repeatedly while raising his fist before one brave passenger springs into action to tackle him to the ground. Another man jumps up to provide assistance when the Islamist starts to resist.
“Don’t move!” he says.

Search engines are not neutral tools – Especially Google
Washington has long debated whether public institutions like NPR or the Department of Education are pushing ideological agendas. But in focusing on traditional media and academia, policymakers may be missing the real source of influence over the American mind: Silicon Valley.
Specifically, search engines and platforms with global reach are shaping political discourse far more aggressively—and covertly—than any publicly funded outlet.
Search engines are not neutral tools. They’re curated environments, programmed by people with perspectives. And when one company dominates search—handling over 90% of global traffic—it wields unprecedented control over what information gets seen and what gets buried.
Concerns about political bias in tech aren’t just speculation. Internal company leaks, congressional testimony, and peer-reviewed research have revealed how digital platforms quietly steer public opinion—often without users realizing it.

Government Waste That Should Really Piss You Off
Why have there been so many air traffic control issues lately? Is it because Trump has begun to trim a little fat from the bloated federal bureaucracy, as the media would have us believe? Or is it because for 4 years the secretary of transportation was a left-wing nitwit whose only job qualification was that he is ostentatiously homosexual?
The Air Traffic Control is being run off of diskettes, Musk found that out.
The New York Post reports:
Pete Buttigieg failed to replace outdated air traffic control systems while in office — with his agency instead shelling out tens of billions of dollars on a DEI agenda, according to federal spending records and airline industry insiders.
The effect of DEI on air safety is predictable.
In one meeting, Buttigieg — who is said to be eyeing a 2028 presidential run — told industry executives that air traffic control upgrades would just allow them to fly more planes, “and so why would that be in his interest?” sources said.
According to Democrat ideology, transportation makes it be too hot outside by requiring energy, so why would he want to facilitate Americans having more of it?
What his department was really interested in was handing out hundreds of diversity, equity and inclusion grants totaling more than $80 billion over four years — at least half of the DOT’s entire budget for a typical fiscal year, records show.
Again we see that the Biden Administration was not so much a government as a looting spree.
“He was definitely pushing an agenda,” an air industry official said, noting the transportation secretary had “little to no interest” and took “definitely zero action” toward air traffic control modernization.
Gobbling up our money on behalf of their malevolent agenda is the whole point for Democrats. That’s why their transportation secretary was not required to know anything about transportation.
As of last month, an Emerson College poll of registered voters found the former transportation secretary leading the 2028 Democratic presidential primary field with 16% support, followed by ex-Vice President Kamala Harris at 13%.
Among Democrats, this kooky and incompetent creep is a star.

Biden’s Green Dream of EV Postal Truck Fleet Is a $10 Billion Failure
Using the 2022 “Inflation Reduction Act” as cover for the progressive “Green New Deal,” the Biden administration funded a plan that aimed to eliminate gasoline-powered delivery trucks and deploy tens of thousands of battery-electric mail trucks by 2028.
And, like so many initiatives linked to Biden, it ended in complete failure. Republicans in Congress are working to claw-back the remaining monies.
The nearly $10 billion project — which called for more than 35,000 battery-powered US Postal Service (USPS) vehicles to be completed by September 2028 — was funded in part by $3 billion in funding from former President Joe Biden’s 2022 Inflation Reduction Act.
As of this month, the project is well behind schedule despite taxpayers forking over $1.7 billion — prompting Capitol Hill Republicans to try to rescind the remaining nearly $1.3 billion earmarked from the IRA.
“Biden’s multi-billion-dollar EV fleet for the USPS is lost in the mail and more than $1 billion is postmarked to order more,” Sen. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) told The Post.
“I am working to cancel the order and return the money to the sender, the American people. The rescissions package is a great start, but Congress must keep its foot on the pedal and make DOGE a lifestyle by stamping out waste like this on a regular basis.”
When kicking off the project that was supposed to generate a fleet of over 60,000 electric delivery trucks, one Biden climate advisor described it as “the Biden climate strategy on wheels.”
The post office said it is spending nearly $10 billion to electrify its aging fleet, including installing modern charging infrastructure at hundreds of postal facilities nationwide and purchasing at least 66,000 electric delivery trucks in the next five years. The spending includes $3 billion in funding approved under a landmark climate and health policy adopted by Congress last year.

A Short History Of The Emoji.
I refuse to use them. I think they are childish and don’t add anything to the text, no matter how cute you think you are. I deduct man points if a guy sends me one who’s over 30.
Emojis have become a staple of electronic communication since their inception in the 1990s and people of all ages and on all continents use them. While their number keeps on growing every year due to new releases by the Unicode Consortium, the pictograms are increasingly vying for users’ attention as other forms of visual communication – think gifs, stickers and avatars – are experiencing their heyday.
With myriads of emojis released over the previous years, new batches have become somewhat smaller.
As Statista’s Katharina Buchholz reports, a recently suggested update that would grow the number of emojis to almost 4,000 next year contains 164 additional pictograms, but only nine completely new ones.
While 2022 had seen the release of 112 new emojis, that number was just 31 in 2023. The figure rose again to 118 in 2024 due to emojis that allow users to pick different skin colors or genders (which are counted individually), before falling to an all-time low of eight in 2025. The number of non-customizable emojis has meanwhile decreased with almost every release.

That Bling Will Kill You
A man was pulled into an MRI machine in New York after he walked into the room wearing a large chain necklace, police said.
The man, 61, had entered an MRI room while a scan was underway Wednesday afternoon at Nassau Open MRI. The machine’s strong magnetic force drew him in by his metallic necklace, according to the Nassau County Police Department.
Police said the incident “resulted in a medical episode” that left the man hospitalized in critical condition. Authorities did not release his name and did not have an update on the man’s condition on Friday.
A person who answered the phone at Nassau Open MRI on Long Island declined to comment Friday.
MRI machines “employ a strong magnetic field” that “exerts very powerful forces on objects of iron, some steels, and other magnetizable objects,” according to the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, which says the units are “strong enough to fling a wheelchair across the room.”

Cheated for years breaking the law, but was willing to lie and put on a show about everything from Jan 6 to Melania’s underwear in the Mar-A-Lago raid. He’s been destestable for years.
Now, maybe justice will be served to the asshole of the week, Adam Schiff.
In a shocking new development, President Donald Trump’s longtime political adversary, Democrat Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA), is facing criminal prosecution after a bombshell referral from the U.S. Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) over alleged mortgage fraud spanning years.
The FHFA has formally alerted the Department of Justice (DOJ) of the evidence, triggering an investigation into Schiff’s actions following a series of mortgage-related allegations.
Schiff, who was elected to the Senate in 2024 after years of serving as a House lawmaker, is under intense scrutiny after Trump announced the charges earlier this week.
It was revealed that between 2003 and 2019, Schiff may have falsified documents related to his Maryland-based property to secure more favorable loan terms.
The property in question is located in Potomac, Maryland, just outside Washington, D.C.
According to the FHFA’s referral, Schiff allegedly manipulated bank documents and property records, a clear violation of federal housing rules.
The details of the case are particularly troubling.

In Other Words, He Didn’t Sell Enough Tickets
I thought it was another kooky celebrity uninformed weather story. When thinking through it, though, no one wants to hear an 81 year old singer that was famous 40-50 years ago
Abracadabra! Just like that, the Steve Miller Band canceled its entire 2025 North American tour.
Variety reported:
The band has canceled all 31 scheduled dates of its American tour, which was slated to begin Aug. 15 in Bethel, NY and traverse the entire country before concluding in Anaheim, Calif. on Nov. 8.
The band made the announcement in a straightforward tone familiar to fans of the 81-year-old veteran singer, songwriter and guitarist and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member, whose career stretches back to the mid-1960s and has released such classic rock anthems as “The Joker,” “Fly Like an Eagle,” “Jet Airliner,” “Take the Money and Run” and many more.
Fans needn’t worry that the 81-year-old is suddenly facing health issues. He called off the tour due to the unacceptable risks to his audience, the band, and the crew, posed by climate change-induced extreme weather events. Here’s what Miller told fans in his announcement on X:
The combination of extreme heat, unpredictable flooding, tornadoes, hurricanes and massive forest fires make these risks for you our audience, the band and the crew unacceptable. So …
You can blame it on the weather… The tour is cancelled.

Well, Your Show Sucked Like Your Ratings. Your Premise Was Hate. No Wonder CBS Canceled Colbert
CBS News on Thursday announced it will pull the plug on Stephen Colbert’s late-night show next year, stating the decision was “purely financial” and not a reflection on the years-long host.
The iconic program, which has been around for 10 seasons, will also be the last of the network’s “late night” shows franchise. The network started its “late-night” programming in 1993 after landing David Letterman, according to Variety.
“‘THE LATE SHOW with STEPHEN COLBERT’ will end its historic run in May 2026 at the end of the broadcast season,” the company said in a statement. “We consider Stephen Colbert irreplaceable and will retire ‘THE LATE SHOW’ franchise at that time.
He made fame by spoofing Bill O’Reilly on the comedy channel. That is the highlight of his career. His late night show wasn’t funny and Trump sucks isn’t doing anyone any good right now.
Purely financial means he didn’t draw enough viewers or get enough ad money, otherwise known as failing at your show

Survey Finds College Grads Are Unpopular With Hiring Managers
Who’s surprised here. They don’t want to work hard, they act like children and the whole college protest thing has been getting tired since Viet Nam.
Is this really so surprising? Would you hire a recent grad from Columbia or Harvard?
The College Fix reports:
‘Unprepared and entitled’: College grads unpopular with hiring managers, survey finds
A recent survey from Intelligent found that “1 in 4 hiring managers say recent grads are unprepared for the workforce” and “1 in 8 managers [are] planning to avoid hiring them in 2025.”
The main reasons for this are lack of preparation, a so-so work ethic, and a sense of entitlement among the grads, according to the survey.
“24% of hiring managers believe recent college graduates are unprepared for the workforce, while 33% cite a lack of work ethic, and 29% view them as entitled,” the survey found.
“Additionally, 27% feel recent graduates are easily offended, and 25% say they don’t respond well to feedback.”
The survey results appear to mirror a trend found in recent headlines. A “2025 college graduate job market” search conducted by The College Fix produced the following headlines:
“Class of 2025 College Grads Face Uncertain Job Market”
“Job Market is Getting Tougher for College Graduates”
“New Grads Struggling to Find Work in Job Market

Americans’ trust in Ivy Leagues is tanking: poll
The once epitomized Ivy League institutions of higher education now garner little trust among the American public.
A new poll by the Manhattan Institute found that only 15 percent of voters have a great deal of trust in the elite universities, while 46 percent have little to no trust at all.
Most of those polled said they want to see reforms such as the elimination of diversity, equity, and inclusion and race-based admissions and programs.
Additionally, 64 percent “support requiring universities to advance truth over ideology by enforcing rigorous academic standards, controlling for academic fraud, requiring preregistration of scientific studies, and basing decisions on merit,” the poll found.
The public’s trust in public colleges and universities is a little higher, but not much.
According to the poll, 20 percent said they have a great deal of trust in these institutions, compared to 37 percent who had little to no trust.
“These results place Ivy League colleges among the nation’s least trusted institutions. They draw similar levels of distrust as the media—including newspapers (46% distrust) and TV news (47%)—the Supreme Court (40% distrust), and the Presidency (47%),” according to the institute.

Trump Slashes CO2 Regs Behind War on Energy
The Trump administration just dealt another blow to the anti-energy, anti-prosperity agenda pursued by the Biden administration underpinned by the man-made “climate change” hypothesis. Under the proposed repeal of previous “climate” regulations on energy production announced this month, many of the power plants targeted for destruction could remain open, and CO2 would no longer be considered dangerous “pollution.” Naturally, that has the “climate” movement screaming bloody murder.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the effect of the so-called greenhouse gases coming from U.S. energy production using hydrocarbons (or “fossil fuels”) is so small as to be negligible. The agency also pointed out that the CO2 from power plants is not actually hurting people’s health, contrary to the demonstrably false claims of previous administrations. The latest announcement is part of a suite of two dozen “climate” decrees being eliminated by the administration.
Under the plan, coal and hydrocarbons could continue to provide power for U.S. consumers and businesses. “Rest assured President Trump is the biggest supporter of clean, beautiful coal,” EPA chief Lee Zeldin announced at the agency’s headquarters. “EPA is helping pave the way for American energy dominance because energy development underpins economic development, which in turn strengthens national security.”
The EPA regulatory changes, explained in a proposed rule released this month, would “repeal all greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions standards for fossil fuel-fired power plants,” the agency explained. “The EPA is further proposing to make a finding that GHG [greenhouse gas] emissions from fossil fuel-fired power plants do not contribute significantly to dangerous air pollution.”
