CNN data analyst Harry Enten recently did a segment on the issue of climate change and almost lost his mind as he reported that a majority of Americans – including Democrats – are not worried about climate change.
He cited data going back to the 1980s and pointed out that concern about this has become stagnant.
Of course, Democrats running for office will continue to push this issue. They have decades invested in climate change and it has become an industry in itself with lots of people making ridiculous amounts of money from it.
“Americans AREN’T afraid of climate change!” Enten said with shock in his voice. “Climate activists have not successfully made the case to the American people!”
The data showed that in 1989, 35 percent of those polled admitted they were greatly afraid, and those numbers have basically stayed the same, with 39 percent feeling that way in 2000, and five years later, that number sits at 40 percent.
“We went back all the way to 1989, look at that, it was 35 percent,” Enten said. “2000, 40 percent. 2020, 46 percent. And in 2025, 40 percent. Which is the exact same percentage as back in 2000.”
“Despite all of these horrible weather events, the percentage of Americans who are greatly worried about climate change has stayed pretty gosh darn consistent,” he added, sounding genuinely flabbergasted. “Which kind of boggles the mind a little bit, granted everything that we see on our television screens, our computer screens.”
“Hurricanes, tornadoes, the flooding,” Enten continued. “But yet, greatly worried about climate change, 40 percent, the exact same percentage as in 2000.”
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) quietly funneled thousands of viral samples — including potential ancestors of COVID-19 — to the now-infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) without a formal agreement, documentation, or even a contingency for U.S. access, The Daily Caller reported.
The shocking details, buried in documents obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit by the nonprofit U.S. Right to Know, show USAID shipped 11,000 virus samples from China’s Yunnan Province — home to some of the closest known relatives of the COVID-19 virus — directly to the WIV, the epicenter of the global pandemic.
According to internal sample disposition records obtained by Daily Caller, USAID’s PREDICT program—run by EcoHealth Alliance and University of California-Davis—facilitated the storage and long-term custody of over 11,000 virus-laden samples in Chinese laboratories.
Shockingly, there was no formal partnership agreement with the Chinese labs and no clearly defined safeguards to prevent misuse or diversion of these high-risk biological materials.
Among the documented locations was the now-infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology, where:
3,000 human samples, including blood serum and viral transport medium, were being held.
6,380 bat samples and 1,671 rodent samples were stored under lock and key.
The Trump administration is moving to ban the sale of U.S. farmland to foreign adversaries, with a particular focus on China, citing national security and food system vulnerabilities, according to MSN/Washington Post.
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins announced the policy shift Tuesday, saying the administration is preparing an executive order and working with state lawmakers to block further land purchases, especially near military bases.
“With this announcement today we are taking this purpose and our American farmland back,” Rollins said. “American agriculture is not just about feeding our families but about protecting our nation and standing up to foreign adversaries who are buying our farmland, stealing our research and creating dangerous vulnerabilities.”
In a joint press conference with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Rollins said officials are exploring “every available option” to potentially claw back land already purchased by China-linked entities.
Though Chinese investors hold a tiny fraction of U.S. farmland—about 0.0003%, most of it tied to a single company—the issue has drawn bipartisan scrutiny amid rising geopolitical tensions. The USDA said Chinese-linked land ownership has declined by 31% since 2021, and federal authorities have documented attempts by Chinese agents to target U.S. agriculture, including a recent case involving smuggled crop-damaging fungi.

Chelsea on the other hand almost always steps in shit when she goes on X and has a lot of family garbage that will dog her the rest of her life. If You are stupid, shut your fucking mouth and don’t announce it to the world by doing dumb stuff, like Chelsea.
One thing for sure, she is a dumbass except for taking advantage of being a Clinton, meaning you never have to obey the law
X users were very skeptical Wednesday afternoon after Chelsea Clinton—currently a board member of the controversial Clinton Global Initiative (CGI)—announced that CGI members had been mobilized to flood-ravaged Kerr County, Texas.
“Members of the @ClintonGlobal community are on the ground in Texas, supporting families, communities and ongoing search and rescue efforts,” Clinton wrote in a post on X. The post was heavily ratioed.
“Avoid anything promoted by the Clinton family,” one X user said, referring back to a 2016 BBC article titled “What really happened with the Clintons in Haiti?”
The BBC article cited Haitian activist Dahoud Andre, who had some nasty words to say about the Clintons: “The Clinton family, they are crooks, they are thieves, they are liars.”
CGI has had its fair share of controversies—from cash-for-access and State Department overlap to the Uranium One deal and Haiti earthquake funding. The nonprofit has been under scrutiny for years.
Natural disasters are prime opportunities for nonprofits to market themselves to new donors—in fact, it’s big business. And with recent USAID funding cuts, one has to wonder how many of these organizations are now struggling.
If you’ve ever wanted to witness the slow-motion collapse of a Ponzi scheme, you might want to keep an eye on Germany’s public pension system.
Rhetorically and politically sugar-coated as a “pay-as-you-go” system—where today’s workers finance the retirement of yesterday’s—this bureaucratic redistribution leviathan is utterly dependent on an ever-growing pool of contributors. The problem is that Germany is aging, shrinking, and losing its industrial base.
Just in time for this demographic crunch—declining birth rates, increasing life expectancy, and longer pension payout durations—policymakers have decided to torch what’s left of the country’s industrial foundation in a green frenzy. Year after year, around €70 billion in value creation is being sent up the chimney, while more than half a million jobs have disappeared in recent years. That’s half a million fewer contributors to the pension Ponzi.

British solar farms have been paid to switch off for the first time as sunny days prompt a surge of clean power that could overwhelm the grid.
The National Energy System Operator (Neso), which manages the UK’s power grids and is overseen by Ed Miliband, the Energy Secretary, has issued switch-off orders to solar facilities this year, new research reveals.
Operators are paid to switch off when these orders are issued, with the extra cost added to consumer and business energy bills.
The solar operators claiming compensation are understood to include some of the UK’s biggest energy suppliers, such as EDF Renewables and Octopus Energy.
Such “constraint payments” are already common with wind farms because so many have been built in areas such as northern Scotland or offshore, areas without grid capacity to carry the power they generate.
So far this year, constraint payments have cost consumers £650m, according to the Wasted Wind website. The cost is added to energy bills.
Overall “balancing payments” could hit £8bn a year by 2030 without massive grid upgrades, according to Neso estimates. Such upgrades would also be extremely costly, with consumers liable.
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) shipped thousands of viral samples to a lab in Wuhan over the course of a 10-year program even though it had no formal agreement with the lab in place, according to previously unreported documents.
The documentsshow that USAID funded the exportation of 11,000 samples from Yunnan Province, where some of the closest relatives of the COVID-19 virus circulate, to Wuhan, the epicenter of the pandemic, with no apparent plan for ensuring the samples were not misdirected to bioweapons and remained accessible to the U.S. government.
A $210 million USAID public health program called PREDICT, steered by the University of California-Davis, collected viral samples in countries throughout the globe but lacked long-term storage when funding dried up, according to rudimentary plans in 2019.
USAID’s sample dispensation plan for China is sparse: “No need [sic] information from Yunnan. They were never an official lab partner for PREDICT. All samples they helped collected [sic] are sent to, tested, and stored in Wuhan.”
The “lab” refers to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV). WIV was a close partner of USAID contractor EcoHealth Alliance and a slated partner for a PREDICT-like program supported by the State Department. The lab has poor biosafety practices and ties to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).
Which tech companies are generating the most profit per employee?
In this graphic, Visual Capitalist’s Marcus Lu visualized 22 major tech companies by revenue per employee in 2024, highlighting the efficiency of business models that monetize user-generated content.
The data for this visualization comes from Multiples.
Revenue per Employee Leaders
OnlyFans, Valve, and YouTube are the top three leaders in this dataset. All three are digital platforms that have successfully scaled up with a relatively small workforce.
OnlyFans has 51-200 employees according to LinkedIn, while Valve operates Steam, the world’s largest PC gaming platform, with a workforce of just 350 people. YouTube has the largest headcount of the three, with 7,173 employees as of January 2024.
By leveraging user-generated content (OnlyFans and YouTube) or digital distribution strategies (Valve), these companies differ from traditional companies that rely on labor-intensive operations.
One is that President Donald Trump had issued an executive order suggesting or maybe threatening K-12 sports programs—and indeed, college and higher education as well—that if they allowed biological men to compete in women’s sports, then he was going to consider cutting off federal funds for that.
The Daily Signal depends on the support of readers like you. Donate now
But at the same time he did it, the number of transgendered women—that is biological men who have transitioned to supposedly women—has increased and soared in women’s sports.
So, here on the West Coast, a trans athlete dominated the state high school track and field competitions, winning three or four main events. The same thing happened in Oregon. The same thing had happened in Washington. The same thing is happening in Minneapolis with girls baseball in the finals.
The point is it’s usually a phenomenon in blue states and in particular, blue cities. And Donald Trump’s executive orders are going the way of sanctuary cities. People are just ignoring them because they feel that he wouldn’t dare cut off federal funds because it would shut down the whole school.
But let’s get some background on this whole transgendered sports phenomenon. And maybe there’s five or six things we should keep in mind.
No. 1: We know a lot about gender dysphoria. There’s a long history of sex research about people whose psychological or hormonal makeup does not match their physical characteristics. But here’s the key: They’re very rare.
They went woke. You’re not gong to convince me that certain genders or sexual perverts are heros. They are not going to kick ass on Captain America, Ironman or the Superman we’ve known since Comic books and black and white TV.
The Hollywood duo routinely work together on film projects, most recently the older Gunn’s “Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3.” Sean Gunn plays Kraglin Obfonteri in that trilogy.
Now, the actor is bringing DC Comics’ Maxwell Lord to life in “Superman,” his brother’s anticipated DC Comics Man of Steel reboot. Pedro Pascal played the villainous character in “Wonder Woman 1984.”
So it’s no surprise to see Sean Gunn walking the red carpet on the film’s behalf Monday night. That’s where a Variety journalist pressed him on his brother’s last-minute attempt to politicize the film.
It’s truth, justice and the American Way, the end.
Marvel started sucking with Kathleen Kennedy, but it didn’t really show up until the final Avengers. Since then, the movies are both woke and failures at the box office.
Why are thousands of Walmart workers suddenly “vanishing” all over the nation? And why are vast numbers of agricultural workers suddenly no longer showing up for work? What I am about to share with you is extremely alarming. During the “open border years”, our economy became extremely dependent on very cheap migrant labor. Now that the border has been secured and mass deportations are occurring, major employers throughout the country are experiencing a case of severe whiplash.
The open border policies of Joe Biden caused a tremendous amount of chaos from coast to coast. Violent criminals came pouring in, and we definitely need to get those violent criminals out. For example, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem just revealed that a cannibal that was being deported literally started “to eat himself” on the plane ride out of the United States…
Let us begin with a simple proposition: a nation that loses grip on historical truth will soon lose the very liberty it claims to defend. In the case of Juneteenth, the official narrative peddled by government institutions and media organs insists that June 19, 1865, marked the end of slavery in the United States. It did not. The same narrative suggests that slaves in Galveston, Texas, were ignorant of their freedom until Union General Gordon Granger arrived and read General Order No. 3 from a balcony. That too is false.
So, why the deception? Why enshrine a historical inaccuracy into federal law, complete with flags, hashtags, and official observances? The answer lies not in a celebration of liberty, but in its quiet replacement. Juneteenth, far from being a spontaneous commemoration of emancipation, is a politically engineered holiday whose true function is to decenter the Fourth of July, recast the American Founding as a fraud, and promote a new narrative steeped not in liberty, but in grievance. At bottom, Juneteenth is not about celebrating the end of slavery. It is about reinterpreting the American project itself.
President Trump‘s Justice Department and FBI have concluded they have no evidence that convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein blackmailed powerful figures, kept a “client list” or was murdered, according to a memo detailing the findings obtained by Axios.
The administration is releasing a video — in both raw and “enhanced” versions — that it says indicates no one entered the area of the Manhattan prison where Epstein was held the night he died in 2019.
The video supports a medical examiner’s finding that Epstein died by suicide, the two-page memo claims.
Why it matters: The findings represent the first time Trump’s administration has officially contradicted conspiracy theories about Epstein’s activities and his death — theories that had been pushed by the FBI’s top two officials before Trump appointed them to the bureau.
As social media influencers and activists, Kash Patel (now the FBI’s director) and Dan Bongino (now deputy director) were among those in MAGA world who questioned the official version of how Epstein died.
Patel and Bongino have since said Epstein killed himself. But it has become an article of faith online, especially on the right, that Epstein’s crimes also implicated government officials, celebrities and business leaders — and that someone killed him to conceal them.
Bullshit. This means the CIA and FBI have their fingerprints all over Epstein. They used him to gather blackmail on celebrities and politicians, just like J. Edgar Hoover. He died when he wasn’t useful anymore.
Not a person on earth believes Epstein killed himself.
If nothing happened, Why is Ghislane Maxwell still in prison?
As I have previously reported, President Donald Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been busy reversing all the climate cultist policies that harm this nation’s ability to serve and support its citizens.
After six months of watching Trump and various members of his team suspend and terminate federal employees, end the progressive pork distribution agency formerly known as USAID, and otherwise upend the Deep State approach to ruling over American citizens, one might think that federal employees who valued regular paychecks and good benefits would realize “Resistance 2.0” would be a failure.
However, a group of EPA employees clearly weren’t paying attention. The agency has placed 144 staffers on paid leave and launched an inquiry into their participation in signing a letter that accused the Trump administration of politicizing the agency.
The agency said its actions were warranted because the employees had signed the letter using their official titles and because the letter had denigrated the agency’s leadership.
“The Environmental Protection Agency has a zero-tolerance policy for career bureaucrats unlawfully undermining, sabotaging and undercutting the administration’s agenda as voted for by the great people of this country last November,” the E.P.A. press secretary, Brigit Hirsch, wrote in an email.
The 144 employees received emails on Thursday saying they had been placed on leave for the next two weeks “pending an administrative investigation,” according to a copy of the email reviewed by The New York Times.
“You are required to provide a current email address and phone number so that we can contact you as part of our investigation,” the email said, adding that the staff members would continue to collect paychecks while on leave.
President Trump has vowed that there will be no more development of wind energy infrastructure under his administration, calling huge windmills blighting the landscape “garbage” and “bullshit.”
“We’re not going to let windmills get built because we’re not going to destroy our country any further than it’s already been destroyed,” Trump said.
He continued, “You go and look at these beautiful plains and valleys and they’re loaded up with this garbage that gets worse and worse looking with time…What bullshit this is.”
As fireworks light up skies across America this Fourth of July, George Zambelli, owner of Zambelli Fireworks, urged people on Newsmax on Friday to leave the explosions to the professionals — and to never handle fireworks while under the influence of alcohol.
Zambelli has seen nearly everything in his decadeslong career running one of the nation’s largest fireworks companies. But as Independence Day celebrations get underway, he’s sounding a familiar alarm: Fireworks and alcohol do not mix.
Who would have thought that those 2 don’t mix well
When you have one big crowd draw, you don’t let the crybabies who aren’t as good get away with killing the golden goose.
That’s right, The WNBA is the asshole of the week. They beat the shit out of Caitlin and they are going to ruin their biggest draw.
They also ranked her the 9th best guard. She’s already better than almost all of them and the records fall quickly.
I’m not saying give her special protection, but give her some. They are taking cheap shots at her and She’s been injured this season. Guess what? the numbers for game attendance are down when she’s not playing.
The WNBA is a racist bunch of children that didn’t get their way because Clark is the great white hope, not the expected black.
They were nothing before Clark and they should do more to act like a professional sports league, not a babysitting service for uppity children.
It’s baaaack!. The annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest. I watch it as it grosses out my wife, but I can’t believe how many dogs they can eat in 10 minutes.
I’ve been a fan since Kobayashi made it famous when a skinny punk from Japan killed the competition. It was around the same time as Ken Jennings streak on Jeopardy.
The Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July hot dog eating contest is back, and famed competitive eater Joey “Jaws” Chestnut is hoping for a comeback 17th win on Friday.
The 41-year-old, from Westfield, Indiana, was not in last year’s event due to a contract dispute involving a deal he had struck with a competing brand, the plant-based meat company Impossible Foods. But now he’s back, saying things have been ironed out.
Patrick Bertoletti, of Chicago, won the title in Chestnut’s absence and is the defending men’s champion.
In the women’s competition, defending champion Miki Sudo, 39, of Tampa, Florida, is the favorite this year and is seeking her 11th title. Last year she downed a record 51 dogs.
The annual gastronomic battle, which dates back to 1972, is held in front of the original Nathan’s Famous’ restaurant at New York’s Coney Island and draws large crowds of fans, many in foam hot dog hats.
Competitors in the men’s and women’s categories chow down as many hot dogs as possible in 10 minutes. They are allowed to dunk the dogs in cups of water to soften them up, creating a stomach-churning spectacle.
The 15 men in the competition hail from across the U.S. and internationally, including Australia, Czech Republic, Canada, England, and Brazil.
The 13 women competitors are all Americans.
Chestnut set the world record of eating 76 wieners and buns in 10 minutes on July 4, 2021. He has won a record 16 Mustard Belts. Instead of appearing in New York last year, Chestnut ate 57 dogs — in only five minutes — in an exhibition with soldiers, in El Paso, Texas.
Millions of people worldwide are concerned about climate change and believe there is a climate emergency. For decades we have been told by the United Nations that Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activity are causing disastrous climate change. In 2018, a UN IPCC report even warned that ‘we have 12 years to save the Earth’, thus sending millions of people worldwide into a frenzy.
Thirty-five years ago, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the (World Meteorological Organization) WMO established the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to provide scientific advice on the complex topic of climate change. The panel was asked to prepare, based on available scientific information, a report on all aspects relevant to climate change and its impacts and to formulate realistic response strategies. The first assessment report of the IPCC served as the basis for negotiating the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Governments worldwide have signed this convention, thereby, significantly impacting the lives of the people of the world.
Still in the pretty old stuff so should be better than the last one. As you can see, I was still playing around for a title. I think that is in the next round of best of.
Let’s see, Abortion, crime, overspending the budget, all the gay shit and pervert stuff, trannies, the global warming lies, cheating to win elections, I can’t imagine that they’d be less proud. They are for more crime and are being stopped. Plus, we stopped slavery in 1865. You can’t blame that anymore. They think they want socialism, but don’t understand the history or ramifications
As we prepare to note the 249th anniversary of our country, getting ready for the great celebration next year of America’s 250th, Gallup serves up sobering data.
Per polling just released by Gallup, only 58% of Americans now say they are “extremely proud” or “very proud” to be an American.
When Gallup first asked this question in 2001, 87% said they were “extremely proud” or “very proud” to be American.

Digging deeper, we see that most of this precipitous drop in pride in our country is attributable to those identifying as Democrats.
In 2001, 90% of Republicans said they were “extremely proud” or “very proud” to be an American. In 2025, 92% of Republicans say they are “extremely proud” or very “proud.”
In 2001, 87% of Democrats said they were either “extremely” or “very” proud. But in 2025, only 36% of Democrats say they are “extremely” or “very” proud of their country.

Nearly 72 million people are expected to travel during the Fourth of July holiday, likely leading to crowded highway traffic and congested airports across the United States. However, holiday travelers should also see lower gas prices and airfares as they go to their Independence Day destinations, experts say.
Nationally, AAA Travel, the travel‐services arm of the American Automobile Association,forecasts that 72.2 million people will travel at least 50 miles from home during the Independence Day holiday period from June 28 to July 6. This year’s domestic travel projection is 1.7 million more travelers than last year and 7 million more than in 2019.
“Summertime is one of the busiest travel seasons of the year, and July 4th is one of the most popular times to get away,” Stacey Barber, vice president of AAA Travel, said.
“Following Memorial Day’s record forecast, AAA is seeing strong demand for road trips and air travel over Independence Day week. With the holiday falling on a Friday, travelers have the option of making it a long weekend or taking the entire week to make memories with family and friends.”
AAA’s annual Independence Day forecast now includes two weekends instead of one, better reflecting the flow of holiday travelers, officials said. However, the U.S. Transportation Security Administration’s travel projections for the airline industry run from July 1 through July 7, with the highest passenger volume—about 2.9 million—expected on July 6.
According to Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officials, airports across the United States expect the highest passenger numbers ever for the nation’s 249th birthday. TSA staff at airports nationwide said they are prepared to screen more than 18.5 million travelers at the country’s security checkpoints.
Already on June 22, the TSA reported that it screened nearly 3.1 million travelers, the busiest single day number in the agency’s history, and more than 40 days after REAL ID enforcement came into full force at airport checkpoints nationwide on May 7.
The hoity-toity bought EV’s mostly to show what good Social Justice Warriors they are. As a novelty, they are impressive, but it wears off.
What doesn’t wear off is the sound of a real engine. In this case it’s a Hemi. It’s big and bad and what people want.
Yes, over 10,000 orders for Hemi V8-equipped pickups were received after the announcement in June – and that was only in the initial 24 hours. That’s a significant number when you consider that Ram has sold an average of 17,828 light-duty pickups per month in the second quarter of 2025.
“We continue to see total sales growth for Jeep and Ram brands, with Ram fueled by sales of the Ram 1500,” said Jeff Kommor, head of U.S. sales. “We plan to build on that success in the second half of the year. We’ve already seen consumer interest spurred by the return of the Hemi V8, with the brand receiving over 10,000 orders in the first 24 hours of the June announcement.”
Tim Kuniskis, CEO of Ram, admitted in June that the company “screwed up” when it discontinued the Hemi V8, and has resolved to give its customers the choice to select the powertrain they want.
New York streets seem to be buckling under the intense heat smothering the city with dramatic photos showing a bus broken through a Long Island parking garage — and a firetruck sinking into a Manhattan street as record-setting tempts broil the Big Apple.
The first incident happened in North New Hyde Park Tuesday afternoon — where temps topped around 99 degrees Fahrenheit — as a bus turned onto the exposed top level of a parking garage, but then plunged through the roadway as the ground opened beneath it.
“With everything going on I thought Iran was here,” said garage attendant Ricky Cody, who heard a loud bang as the bus’ rear end sank into the broken blacktop.
A large bus broke through the pavement at a parking garage in North New Hyde Park during the heat wave Tuesday Peter Gerber
“We got calls going ‘Oh my god, oh my god! What’s going on?’” he said. “You don’t really know. You hear a loud bang, and you don’t expect something like that to happen when the whole day cars are coming in no problem.”
The bus was left lodged in the parking lot with its front end jutting up into the air, dramatic photos show, but no passengers were on board during the accident and the driver was able to exit safely.
Paramount and CBS was forced to pay millions of dollars to President Trump and agreed to change its editorial policy in a settlement.
President Trump filed a $20 billion lawsuit against the network’s parent company Paramount for deceptively editing a ’60 Minutes’ interview with Kamala Harris.
Trump will be paid $16 million up front, according to Fox News.
Paramount Global and CBS agreed on Tuesday to pay President Donald Trump a sum that could reach north of $30 million to settle the president’s election interference lawsuit against the network.
Trump will receive $16 million upfront. This will cover legal fees, costs of the case, and contributions to his library or charitable causes, to be determined at Trump’s discretion. There is an expectation that there will be another allocation in the mid-eight figures set aside for advertisements, public service announcements, or other similar transmissions, in support of conservative causes by the network, Fox News Digital has learned.
Sources close to the situation told Fox News Digital that CBS has agreed to update its editorial standards to install a mandatory new rule. Going forward, the network will promptly release full, unedited transcripts of future presidential candidates’ interviews. People involved in the settlement talks have referred to this as the “Trump Rule.”
In October President Trump sued CBS News for $10 billion (now increased to $20 billion) for deceptively editing its ’60 Minutes’ interview with Kamala Harris.
“President Trump brings this action to redress the immense harm caused to him, to his campaign, and to tens of millions of citizens in Texas and across America by CBS’s deceptive broadcasting conduct,” the lawsuit stated, according to Fox News.
Fake news 60 Minutes was caught editing Kamala’s answers to make her sound coherent and normal.
What was once dismissed as a “conspiracy theory” now has hard data behind it.
A new peer-reviewed study out of the Czech Republic has uncovered a disturbing trend: in 2022, women vaccinated against COVID-19 had 33% FEWER successful conceptions per 1,000 women compared to those who were unvaccinated.
A “successful conception” means a pregnancy that led to a live birth nine months later.
The study wasn’t small. It analyzed data from 1.3 million women aged 18 to 39.
Here’s what the numbers reveal, and what it could mean for humanity.
By 2022, a stark difference was clear.
The vaccinated cohort averaged around 4 successful conceptions per 1,000 women per month.
That’s a staggering 33% LESS than the 6 per 1,000 seen in the unvaccinated group.
This means that for every 2 vaccinated women who successfully conceived and delivered a baby, 3 unvaccinated women did the same.
In 2022, unvaccinated women were 1.5 times MORE likely to have a successful conception.
Again, that’s a conception that led to a live birth nine months later.
Hillary’s hero huh? Do any black people out there connect the dots here? This woman was evil and yes, out to get you.
LifeNews Note: The following are excerpts of remarks by Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ) at the National Celebrate Life Weekend Gala recently.

My dear wife Marie and I met more than fifty years ago when we, along with Marty Dannenfelser, formed a college pro-life organization.
Marie has been—and continues to be—a powerful, talented and incredibly wise, faith-filled pro-life leader, especially in the battle to defend human life around the world including through an organization she founded two decades ago called the Parliamentary Network for Critical Issues.
Words are inadequate to express my love, respect, admiration and gratitude for her—we do everything together.
While she is recovering from a serious illness, she sends her love and deepest respect for the amazing work each of you is doing to defend the weakest and most vulnerable.
Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger was a eugenicist and a racist who considered charity care for impoverished, disenfranchised women, including women of color, especially pregnant women, to be “cruel.”
In her book, “The Pivot of Civilization,” Margaret Sanger devoted an entire chapter to what she called: “The Cruelty of Charity,”
Sanger said: “we are paying for and even submitting to the dictates of an ever increasing, unceasingly spawning class of human beings who never should have been born at all.”
It’s been less than a year since the Jaguar automotive brand introduced what many — including this publication, I must note — called the “worst car ad ever.” And, while “go woke, go broke” isn’t a new phenomenon, Jaguar has taken it to previously unseen lows.
Now, a little over eight months since the ad was introduced — famously featuring what apparently was a gaggle of garishly dressed nonbinary flibbertigibbets and not a car to be seen — the marque is basically fulfilling the spot’s car-free promise.
The brand’s sales are down 97.5 percent (not an errant decimal point there), the corporate overlords behind it might be splitting with the geniuses behind the rebrand, and there’s no cars anywhere in the near future for a make that wants to go upmarket but doesn’t have the products or the cachet to do so.
Just in case you somehow missed it, I didn’t, and misery loves company. Thus, please sit through what appears to be an episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” held in a post-apocalyptic fallout bunker:
Hollywood actor Pedro Pascal launched an attack against “Harry Potter” series author J.K. Rowling on Tuesday, when a Vanity Fair cover story came out in which he called her a bully who makes him “f***ing sick” for her stance on the transgenderism.
“Bullies make me f***ing sick,” he told Vanity when the topic of J.K. Rowling came up.
The author has been at the center of controversy for her refusal to acknowledge people as being the opposite sex of which they were born.
Pascal reportedly has a self-proclaimed transgender younger sibling and had already gone after Rowling for purportedly exhibiting “heinous loser behavior” earlier this year.
This was due to her celebrating a U.K. Supreme Court ruling that stated self-proclaimed transgender women cannot legally be considered women and self-proclaimed transgender men are not to be legally considered men.
It’s odd how he did not use his up-and-coming clout to “help” his former Disney co-star Gina Carano when she was sandbagged and fired by Disney for expressing personal views on social media about hatred becoming toxic.
Because she invoked Nazi Germany as an example, she was cancelled.
Carano sued Disney and won a recent ruling that will force the conglomerate to produce documents related to Pascal and other actors.
She co-starred with him on “The Mandalorian” as Cara Dune, a fan-favorite character, for two seasons.
Carino is winning her suit against Disney for discrimination, for shit sjust like what Pedro did.
When I was growing up, we wanted to be men. We acted like the most masculine people we knew as examples to look up to. No one we knew was a tranny and if we found out someone was a homosexual, it was by accident because they tried to hide it. It wasn’t because we would beat their asses, it was because THEY were ashamed to admit it.
Then came pride month. It used to be embarrassing to be a homosexual. Now, they have them in every flavor. It’s not that they are whatever flavor of mentally ill, it’s that they force the rest of us to not just accept it, but to celebrate their perversity.
So here is a random collection of what when on pretty much daily and how people reacted to it.

Nascar has no posts this year after going crazy posting about the sissy men in their sport. A black guy not named Bubba won and they said nothing. NASCAR is about the last place I’d want to find a bunch of guys rogering each other.
“Many Americans don’t care what people do in private,” notes political commentator Gary Bauer. “But they want it to stay private. They are sick and tired of being told we have to celebrate it. The number of days, weeks, and months dedicated to celebrating ‘pride,’ which is a sin, is absurd.”
On May 21, the House Education Committee held a hearing, Restoring Excellence: The Case Against DEI , or “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion,” a euphemism for neo-racism and therefore a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Thankfully, the hearing got this message across and the presiding chairman, Congressman Burgess Owens of South Carolina, should be commended for convening it.
And here you have the most important headline of this whole post,
Satan hailed at Pikes Peak Pride fest. At least we know who is behind Pride and the whole mental illness alphabet people movement. They know where they are headed also.
It’s the last day of the month and any interest in supporting it is dead and buried. People are tired of woke and I think everyone is still wary of being the next Bud Light. Plus, Trump said DEI and being Woke is for losers and we’re getting rid of it and people stood and applauded
Two legal groups are suing IBM over claims the technology company discriminated against an older white employee for the purpose of advancing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.
America First Legal (AFL) and JW Howard Attorneys, LTD, filed a federal lawsuit against IBM on behalf of former employee John Loeffler, 64.
The lawsuit alleges that Loeffler was targeted to “advance IBM’s internal DEI quotas,” accusing the company of violating Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
The lawsuit claims that despite Loeffler’s history of positive performance reviews and successfully leading a $30 million project, IBM placed him on a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) with conditions that were “impossible to meet.”
Loeffler objected to the plan and his recently assigned manager, Eric Castillo, conceded that the PIP’s goals were unattainable, according to the lawsuit. Loeffler’s lawyers contend the PIP was intentionally designed to force him out of his role in favor of younger, non-white staff.
“The PIP was pretextually designed to remove Loeffler from his position because he is an older white male,” the lawsuit states. “IBM discriminates in favor of younger workers generally (as the EEOC explicitly found), and, in the name of ‘diversity,’ specifically discriminates against white males”
The lawsuit alleges that, after terminating Loeffler due to his inability to meet the targets, the company replaced him with two younger, non-white employees.
I saw this shit happening when I worked there. It was either hire girls or gays. I used to have an ongoing conversation with Dnny, The Grouchy Old Cripple who saw the same shit and thought it was the the same crock that the rest of us did.

No one likes a mouthy bitch who is stupid acting (Her degree says she’s not and that this is an act). She’s been acting uppity a lot lately for no real reason other than cheap fame.
Anyway, Why would Trump tell her war plans when she can’t keep her mouth shut about going to the bathroom?
Jasmine Crockett, you are the asshole of the week.
Edward “Big Balls” Coristine, one of the first young technologists brought on to Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has returned to government shortly after resigning.
“Edward Coristine joined the Social Security Administration this week as a special government employee,” Stephen McGraw, an SSA spokesperson, tells WIRED. “His work will be focused on improving the functionality of the Social Security website and advancing our mission of delivering more efficient service to the American people.”
Multiple sources at the SSA tell WIRED that Coristine has appeared in person to work onsite at the agency’s Woodlawn, Maryland, headquarters. One SSA employee says they saw Coristine with DOGE engineer Aram Moghaddassi, a current X and former Neuralink employee deployed at the agency. The pair was spotted at the SSA cafeteria as recently as Monday, although it’s unclear what day this week Coristine’s employment officially began. “Coristine looked nervous, almost embarrassed,” the SSA source says. “Aram was on the phone with someone … then said, ‘Yes, I’m with him right now,’ gesturing to Big Balls.”
Globalizing the intifada apparently begins in New York City.
In one of the most stunning upsets for the progressive wing of the Democratic Party since Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s unseating of Joseph Crowley in a 2018 primary battle, state Rep. Zohran Mamdani cruised to an apparent victory in the New York City mayoral primary, handily beating former governor and the presumptive favorite in the race, Andrew Cuomo.
While New York City uses ranked-choice voting and the results won’t be official until next week, Cuomo has already conceded the race with Mamdani ahead by a 43.5 percent to 36.4 percent margin. Given that most polls that had Mamdani winning still had Cuomo ahead in the first round, this means the former governor has no reasonable path forward in the primary, although the ranked-choice balloting will still go forward until a candidate has 50 percent.
Israel has an equivalent of the United States National Security Agency that carries out cyber warfare and other types of clandestine operations, but with one notable difference: It’s staffed largely by teenagers.
The soldiers of Israel Defense Forces Unit 8200 – most living with their parents and working for peanuts as part of the country’s compulsory military service – located the Iranian uranium enrichment sites Israel has been trying to destroy for the past week.
They produced the anti-Ayatollah video with which they interrupted Iran‘s state-run news broadcast on Wednesday. And they pinpointed the Iranian leaders and nuclear scientists on Israel’s hit list.
A unit veteran, now in his early 30s and running an artificial intelligence start-up in Southern California, calls its 18 to 21-year-old active-duty soldiers ‘the most nerdy of nerds.’
‘These are the hackers, the chess players, the eggheads you knew in high school, but to the Nth degree,’ he says, insisting on anonymity for fear, he claims, that ‘anyone who’s done intelligence in Israel isn’t safe’ these days, even in the US.
Israeli archaeologists recently uncovered an ancient sarcophagus depicting a scene familiar to many today: a drinking game.
The Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) announced the discovery in a Facebook post on June 9.
The Roman sarcophagus, or coffin, was found at an archaeological site within the ancient capital city of Caesarea. The discovery is the first of its kind in Israel.
The marble sarcophagus illustrates a drinking scene between Dionysus, the god of wine, and Hercules.
Pictures from the site show archaeologists beaming next to the discovery, which the IAA described as “spectacular.”

“In the center we see Dionysus, the god of wine, and around him a lively retinue of a host of mythological characters such as Maenads (female followers of Dionysus), satyrs, Hermes, Pan, lions and tigers,” the IAA’s statement read.
Archaeologists were unsure of what the entire scene depicted until the sarcophagus was handed over to the IAA’s conservation team — who assembled the fragments.
“Thanks to the restoration, the scenes have been fully revealed,” the IAA said.
IAA archaeologists likened the discovery to “a scene out of a movie.”
Now it’s being reported that some real estate brokers in New York City were flooded with calls from people looking to flee the city within minutes of Mamdani’s win.
People are horrified by the prospect of this man being in charge of America’s most iconic city.
Luxury real-estate brokers say wealthy New Yorkers are already looking to flee after Zohran Mamdani’s primary win
Within minutes of Zohran Mamdani clinching the Democratic nomination Tuesday night, real estate agents like Ryan Serhant were flooded with calls from clients looking to walk away from deals to buy apartments in NYC. High-end buyers are now looking to purchase property outside of the city.
“My number one job will be moving people from New York to Florida. Again,” Serhant told me. “Based on the results, clients are going to hold off on making any kind of investment in New York City.”
According to a note I reviewed, one client who had made an offer on a Chelsea apartment sent her broker an email minutes after former Governor Cuomo conceded to Zohran Mamdani. “We are going to take a break from looking until there’s more clarity on the mayoral election,” the client wrote.
(France) More Footage Emerges of African-Involved Brawls at 2025 Music Festival
Tensions are rising in France after new video footage surfaced showing violent brawls during the 2025 Music Festival, involving predominantly African-origin youth. The clips, which went viral on social media, captured scenes of chaos in several locations where the event was held. The footage has reignited public outcry and renewed scrutiny over France’s immigration and public safety policies.
Eyewitnesses and local media reported that the altercations involved large groups, some armed with blunt objects and knives. Families attending the festival for its cultural spirit were seen fleeing in fear. Some videos show police attempting to intervene, while others suggest a lack of immediate response from law enforcement.
France—the cradle of European culture—can no longer afford to be held hostage by mismanaged migration and political correctness that turns a blind eye to the consequences. The safety of French citizens and the preservation of national identity must be top priorities once again.
So to the reader who got offended last time, these are just as bad so you should move along. They are the teenage level humor that I am blessed with and would have said to my buddies at that age.
If you ask a radical liberal, they’ll tell you that men have no physical advantage whatsoever when it comes to competing against women in sports, but believing that nonsense is one of the most anti-science and anti-reality things you can do. But that’s the left for you.
With that being said, it’s going to be hard for them to defend what the Switzerland Women’s National Soccer Team reportedly went through Wednesday, as they were absolutely clobbered … by a bunch of teenage boys.
Switzerland is currently getting prepared for the Euro 2025 tournament, so with this being the case, they decided to schedule a friendly exhibition against Luzern’s U15 boys’ team, meaning everybody on the roster is either 14 years old or younger. So in other words, the best women soccer players that Switzerland can provide faced off against a group of boys who literally just got to puberty.
But science being science, it doesn’t care about status, it only cares about physical biology, and this is why the U-15 boys absolutely thrashed the Switzerland women by a whopping 7-1 score … 7-1!
Insane. But this is a clear example of the physical advantage that males have over females.
Pretty embarrassing wouldn’t you say? It’s why I don’t buy the girls sports are as good as men’s. It’s also why trannies kick ass when they compete against the girls.
It sort of shoots a hole in the whole girls are hero’s story they try to sell us at the movies, but that is make believe, and it is.
Maybe we can get back to a normal Military that actually puts the fear into the hearts of the enemy now
If you have any interest in the U.S. military you know we have been following the Naval Academy affirmative action trial and resulting appeal very closely.
The glaring loophole in that case was that the Court allowed race-based admissions at military service academies to continue. From Footnote 4 of the Court’s opinion:
The United States as amicus curiae contends that race-based admissions programs further compelling interests at our Nation’s military academies. No military academy is a party to these cases, however, and none of the courts below addressed the propriety of race-based admissions systems in that context. This opinion also does not address the issue, in light of the potentially distinct interests that military academies may present.
So Students for Fair Admissions was forced to sue the U.S. Naval Academy, and West Point, which it promptly did.
Due to scheduling issues, the Naval Academy case was ready for a bench (non-jury) trial first, and after eight full days of testimony in the case, and more than two months of deliberation and opinion-writing by the Court, the federal District (trial-level) Court in Maryland ruled, in December 2024, that the Naval Academy could continue to consider race in admissions:
More at the link below, but suffice it to say that no one liked race based admissions.. They are meeting recruiting quotas now that they don’t have to prioritize the weak, fags and trannies.
As well it should. I don’t know if Covid and the jab or the Climate scam was the biggest hoax of our lifetime. Both will prove them to be Government lies to launder money (most likely).
From New York to California, state renewable electrical power dreams are collapsing. Power demands soar, while the federal government cuts funding and support for wind, solar, and grid batteries. Renewables cannot provide enough power to support the artificial intelligence revolution. The Net Zero electricity transition is failing in the United States.
For the last two decades, state governments have embraced policies aimed at replacing coal and natural gas power plants with renewable sources. Twenty-three states enacted laws or executive orders to move to 100% Net Zero electricity by 2050. Onshore and offshore wind, utility-scale and rooftop solar, and grid-scale batteries were heavily promoted by states and most federal administrations.
The New York State Climate Action Scoping Plan of 2022 called for 70% renewable electricity by 2030 and 100% by 2040. But 49.7% of the state’s electricity came from gas in 2024, up from 47.7% in 2023. A January executive order issued by President Trump halted federal leases for construction of offshore wind systems. New York, nine other east coast states, and California were counting on offshore wind in efforts to get to 100% renewable electricity, but new offshore wind projects are now halted.
Stephen A. Smith fired back at the NAACP Friday for its decision to snub President Donald Trump from its convention, breaking a 116-year tradition of inviting sitting presidents to speak.
NAACP President Derrick Johnson announced Monday that the sitting president is not invited to the NAACP National Convention, breaking a long-standing tradition of welcoming presidents from both parties. In a Friday episode of “The Stephen A. Smith Show,” Smith questioned the logic behind the decision and called it counterproductive to its stated mission of advocating for the disenfranchised, particularly in urban communities.
“He has been the most powerful, the most influential member of the GOP since 2015,” Smith said. “How do you refusing to invite him, ostracizing him, not wanting to hear what he has to say to you all — how does that help you? How?”
Smith was quick to say he wasn’t advocating for any kind of endorsement or camaraderie with Trump.
“Ignoring him and not even inviting him to come and speak at your convention — what’s that going to accomplish? For the first time in a 116-year history, you’re not inviting a president? Are you trying to tell me that there’s no president that has been as offensive to the NAACP as Donald Trump in 116 years?” Smith asked.
LBJ or Woodrow Wilson? They were pretty biased against blacks, way more than Trump.
In a historic snub, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has announced that it will not be inviting President Donald Trump to its annual national convention.
The NAACP made the announcement Monday and denigrated Trump’s character in doing so.
“For 116 years, the NAACP has invited the sitting president of the United States to address the NAACP National Convention — regardless of their political party,” NAACP president and CEO Derrick Johnson said in a statement.
“There is a rich history of both Republicans and Democrats attending our convention — from Harry Truman to Dwight D. Eisenhower, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and beyond.
Like Obama, she would dither and let Iran continue to verbally bully us and threaten our existence.
A former staffer to Presidents Joe Biden and Bill Clinton has admitted that Former Vice President Kamala Harris wouldn’t have displayed the “the courage or fortitude” that President Donald Trump demonstrated in order to take out Iran’s nuclear program.
“I voted for Kamala Harris and have been a vocal critic of many dangerous and undemocratic actions taken by President [Donald] Trump. I’m not a blind tribalist and am perfectly comfortable praising President Trump for bold and courageous actions in support of America’s core national interests, as he took last night,” Jamie Metzl, who served on the National Security Council staff during the Clinton administration and as a Senate staffer for Biden, stated on Sunday.
“Although I believe electing Kamala Harris would have been better for our democracy [and] society,” he went on. “I also believe VP Harris would not have had the courage or fortitude to take such an essential step as the president took last night.”
Look to the leadership and if it’s rd or blue and a lot of this makes sense. Although I loathe San Francisco, I’m glad it is there so the people that live in that shithole stay there and don’t come to my state.
The past year has been a true test of the effectiveness of local leadership. City leaders have had to deal with economic difficulties like high inflation, as well as other issues such as mass shootings with over 500 reported in 2024, keeping gun crime in the political spotlight.
When President Trump stood before the American people and declared that he would decide how to respond to Iran “in two weeks,” it was easy to miss the sleight of hand. I certainly did. I wrote an op-ed analyzing his strategic ambiguity, wholly unaware of what was already in motion. Like a master poker player flashing indifference before revealing a royal flush, Trump’s public vagueness was not hesitation, it was deliberate misdirection. What followed was Operation Midnight Hammer, a strike of staggering precision and secrecy, unrivaled in military history.
At 10:09 PM Central Time on Friday, June 20, 2025, the first of seven B-2 Spirit bombers lifted off from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri. Each aircraft, a flying wing of stealth and lethality, carried two pilots and two 30,000-pound GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrators—the heaviest guided bombs in the US arsenal. Their target: Iran’s most fortified nuclear facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
The B-2s flew 18 hours to Iran, conducting multiple mid-air refuelings assisted by a coordinated fleet of KC-135 Stratotankers departing from Altus Air Force Base in Oklahoma. At 5 PM Eastern, as the bombers approached Iranian airspace, a US Navy submarine launched more than two dozen Tomahawk cruise missiles, saturating Iranian air defenses and critical infrastructure. By 7:05 PM, it was over. The B-2s, undetected and unchallenged, dropped 14 MOPs with pinpoint accuracy and began their journey to Guam. Iran never saw them coming.
This was not just a military operation. It was a philosophical demonstration of deterrence through dominance, an exercise in strategic elegance, and an affirmation of American sovereignty. At a time when foreign adversaries doubted the resolve of the United States, Operation Midnight Hammer answered with decisive finality. Iran’s nuclear ambitions, once a whispered inevitability, were reduced to smoldering rubble beneath mountains of reinforced concrete.

On Sunday the Pentagon revealed new details of its secret “Operation Midnight Hammer” attack on Iran’s nuclear sites:
The Pentagon says at 2:10 a.m. local time, the lead B-2 bomber dropped 2 GBU-57 bunker buster bombs on the first aim point at Fordo.
14 total massive ordinance penetrators were dropped on Iranian targets, followed by Tomahawk missiles.
It was the largest B-2 operational strike in U.S. history.
75 precision guided weapons were used during the operation.
More than 125 U.S. military aircraft took part in the mission.
The Pentagon says it deployed several deception tactics over Iran as it moved to strike nuclear facilities.
The U.S. is unaware of any shots fired by Iran at U.S. warplanes on their way into Iran’s airspace.
Iran’s surface-to-air systems did not see the U.S. planes throughout the mission.
The initial assessment indicates all three nuclear sites sustained extreme damage and destruction.
The Pentagon reports U.S. forces in the region remain on high alert.
Some black players are upset because Caitlin Clark is such an outstanding performer on the court: how dare a white, straight woman be competition to the black players? The basketball court has always been primarily their domain. And the black community which sees itself as victims doesn’t realize that they are putting themselves in this pitiful position, all by themselves.
‘Nobody in our league should be facing any sort of racism, hurtful, disrespectful, hateful comments, and threats,’ Clark said. ‘Those aren’t fans, those are trolls, and it’s a real disservice to the people in our league, the organization and the WNBA.’
[snip]
‘There are a lot of really good fans, whether they’ve been fans for 20+ years or they’re new fans in our league,’ Clark said. ‘I think continuing to uplift this league in a very positive light is the best thing we can do… there are so many positive storylines that can be written and celebrated.’
The WNBA launched another investigation into alleged racism toward Angel Reese, who portrays herself as Clark’s chief rival. Once again, the league found nothing. Angel Smollett struck again.
Add that to the growing list of hoaxes in the world of sports.
Meanwhile, there are actual examples of racism in the WNBA. Days after Reese appeared to lie to reporters about the alleged racist chants, she shared a TikTok video mocking Clark as a little ‘white girl afraid to catch a fade’ with a photo of Reese trying to fight her.
Last Thursday, Brittney Griner appeared to utter ‘Trash, fucking white girl’ from the bench of a game against the Fever.
I’m self-entertaining. I don’t need others to do something or for motivation to get something done. I’m perfectly happy to do a task alone and would likely enjoy it more.
It has other benefits such as I don’t look to others to see what I’m going to do, like not take the Covid-19 jab.

But not to be outdone, was one of the magpies of the View. Whoopi Goldberg, multi-millionaire who lives around a ton of successful black people.

Critical thinking isn’t taught except in private schools anymore. There aren’t enough people who can think straight to begin with. Now………
Does ChatGPT harm critical thinking abilities? A new study from researchers at MIT’s Media Lab has returned some concerning results.
The study divided 54 subjects—18 to 39 year-olds from the Boston area—into three groups, and asked them to write several SAT essays using OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s search engine, and nothing at all, respectively. Researchers used an EEG to record the writers’ brain activity across 32 regions, and found that of the three groups, ChatGPT users had the lowest brain engagement and “consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic, and behavioral levels.” Over the course of several months, ChatGPT users got lazier with each subsequent essay, often resorting to copy-and-paste by the end of the study.
The paper suggests that the usage of LLMs could actually harm learning, especially for younger users. The paper has not yet been peer reviewed, and its sample size is relatively small. But its paper’s main author Nataliya Kosmyna felt it was important to release the findings to elevate concerns that as society increasingly relies upon LLMs for immediate convenience, long-term brain development may be sacrificed in the process.
“What really motivated me to put it out now before waiting for a full peer review is that I am afraid in 6-8 months, there will be some policymaker who decides, ‘let’s do GPT kindergarten.’ I think that would be absolutely bad and detrimental,” she says. “Developing brains are at the highest risk.”
Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Three black patrons went viral Wednesday after fleeing a black-owned Chicago restaurant without paying a $200 tab that included some of the most expensive meals on the menu.
The theft occurred on Monday at the outdoor patio of Phlavz Bar and Grille in the Windy City and first went viral on Instagram.
Footage showed the trio sitting at a table, then running as a server approached with the check. Seconds later, the server finds an empty table and no payment.
“It’s actually disappointing—very disappointing to see that from the community we actually serve,” Phlavz co-owner Andrew Bonsu told ABC 7 in an interview. “We pour into the community.”
A nonprofit affiliated with the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement is asking “white folks” for monetary reparations as its finances have dwindled in recent years.
Black Lives Matter Grassroots made a series of demands for assistance to “our people” and to hold white Americans “accountable” in a Thursday press release honoring Juneteenth, a holiday commemorating the liberation of slaves in the U.S. The group laid out requests for specific ethnic groups, reiterating its brand of leftist identity politics that has lost significant amounts of public support, according to May polling from Pew Research Center.
Black Lives Matter Grassroots Director Melina Abdullah has also been accused of spending some of the nonprofit’s cash to pay for a personal vacation to Jamaica, according to The Washington Free Beacon. The organization “had total holdings of roughly $24 million” in January 2022, according to a letter from an attorney tasked by BLM leaders with investigating the various financial issues.
The group began reporting its finances publicly for the 2023 tax year, showing it started the year with nearly $4 million in assets. However, that figure fell to nearly $2,600,000, tax records show, and Black Lives Matter Grassroots raked in just $77,084 in revenue against $1,449,018 in expenses in 2023.
Porn star Kendra Lust wasn’t a fan whatsoever of what happened Tuesday night with Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark, as the phenom was popped in the eye and blasted down on the court in the blowout victory over the Connecticut Sun.
Sun guard Marina Mabrey was the one who clobbered Clark to the ground, but despite that, referees only slapped her with a technical foul when she clearly should’ve been ejected. Clark was also dished a technical foul for pretty much defending herself, and Connecticut guard Jacy Sheldon was also given a tech for getting Clark in the eye.
The 2020 election has always been under a cloud of suspicion, thanks in large part to the unusual circumstances of a global pandemic, which Democrats and their cohorts in the mainstream media clearly exploited to their advantage.
How else does one explain the fact that the “winning” candidate, who campaigned from his basement and was already manifestly not fit for office, was able to garner the most votes in U.S. presidential election history? It couldn’t possibly have had anything to do with the fact that millions of votes were cast via mail-in ballots, rather than people showing up at polling stations to cast their vote in person.
Of course, the mainstream media dogma on the 2020 election is that it was the “most secure in history.” Furthermore, anyone who dares to question that dogma is tarred as an “election denier” and a “threat to democracy” on par with the worst of the worst January 6 rioters.
It has become a tired, over-referenced, and fundamentally dishonest litmus test used by Leftmedia pundits and commentators designed to disparage anyone who fails to agree as some conspiracy kook.
Yet following Donald Trump’s presidential election victory last November, it may be tempting to simply drop any further debate over the 2020 election. Trump is now president again, and arguably, his time away from the office has put him in a stronger position to move forward with his agenda than he would have been if he had maintained the office in 2020.
Despite this reality, some Republican lawmakers still want answers. One of them is Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa. Grassley requested and recently received from the FBI declassified intelligence reports regarding foreign election interference efforts ahead of the 2020 election.
According to FBI Director Kash Patel, who ordered these reports declassified, they “include allegations of plans from the [Chinese Communist Party] CCP to manufacture fake driver’s licenses and ship them into the United States for the purpose of facilitating fraudulent mail-in ballots — allegations which, while substantiated, were abruptly recalled and never disclosed to the public.” Patel called the reports “alarming allegations related to the 2020 U.S. election, including allegations of interference by the CCP.”
Back in the summer of 2020, the FBI was alerted to the scheme that the Chinese government was manufacturing fake driver’s licenses in a plot to cast mail-in votes in the election. This scheme was apparently later corroborated by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which intercepted some 20,000 fake U.S. driver’s licenses around the time the FBI received the intelligence. Furthermore, the informant claimed the plot was intended to benefit Biden.
So, what did the FBI do with the intel? Well, to put it briefly, the Bureau gave it the Jedi mind trick treatment: “Nothing to see here; move along.”
Back to the theme of the day….protect the border and you get a better economy with less crime
Blue-collar workers have seen real wage growth of almost two percent in the first five months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the largest increase for any administration in nearly 60 years.
The 1.7% pay bump is in stark contrast to negative growth under Joe Biden, according to new data from the US Department of the Treasury.
Since Richard Nixon in 1969, Trump has been the only president to record positive growth for blue-collar workers in his first five months. He also achieved 1.3% in his first term.
Every week, Post columnist Miranda Devine sits down for exclusive and candid conversations with the most influential disruptors in Washington. Subscribe here!
The recovery from a 1.7% decline recorded in Biden’s first five months, as inflation outpaced earnings, suggests a shift in economic conditions for this financially stressed segment of the workforce.
“The only other time it’s been this high was… during President Trump’s first term,” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told me on the latest episode of the “Pod Force One” podcast, out Wednesday.
“We’ve seen real wages for hourly workers, non-supervisory workers, rise almost 2% in the first five months. … No president has done that before.”
Falling inflation has driven the significant improvement in blue-collar wages, lifting workers’ take-home pay and living standards.
Bessent says wage growth is also fueled by the president’s “emphasis on manufacturing” and commitment to remove illegal migrants from the workforce.
“Biden opened the border, and it was flooded,” said Bessent. “And for working Americans, that’s a disaster because it’s pressure on their wages.”
Is Juneteenth being swallowed up – and swept away – by the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) movement? The nation’s newest federal holiday was meant to be a celebration of the end of slavery in America. It was never an LGBTQ holiday or general celebration of “marginalized communities.” Yet it seems some are trying to co-opt it – or culturally appropriate it, one might say – into the broader movement. As the tide of public and political opinion turns against DEI, however, will Juneteenth find itself washed away as well?
Officially, not many give a shit about this day. It’s as made up as Earth Day and some other non-essential holidays that interrupt our lives. I include Valentines Day as that is just for females really.
It was a bunch of pussies who bowed at the alter of diversity and made it up.
Second topic on the discussion of illegals. This will at least get your day going.
Some quick numbers illustrate a big picture for 2025:
8,725 — the number of people U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) encountered attempting to illegally cross the border in May, down 93% from 117,900 a year earlier.
ZERO — the number of illegal aliens Donald Trump’s CBP released into the U.S. in May.
62,000 — the number of illegal aliens Joe Biden’s CBP released into the U.S. in May 2024.
One million — roughly the number of illegal aliens who have self-deported since March.
1.7% — the increase of real wages for blue-collar workers so far this year, the fastest growth rate since 1969.
In short, “all we really needed was a new president.” Donald Trump has upended Joe Biden’s horrific status quo, which amounted to a humanitarian crisis at the border and beyond. Trump has effectively closed the border to the illegal traffic Biden invited, and he’s now focused on how to handle people who reside in the U.S. illegally, often thanks to Team Biden releasing, busing, and flying them all over the country.
“Thanks to @POTUS’s pro-growth, America First policies, real wages for hourly workers are up nearly 2% in the first five months of @realDonaldTrump’s second term — the strongest growth in 60 years,” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent posted on X. The only other time it was close to that strong was during Trump’s first term.
Today’s theme on this blog, the correlation between crime (especially murder although it’s rape int Europe) and illegals who have invaded your country.
Murder rates are plummeting. While we still have more than half a year to go, Kash Patel, the FBI’s director, says that the U.S. is on track to have the lowest murder rate ever. The current record low occurred in 2014 when the FBI reported a murder rate of 4.45 per 100,000.
The question is: why? Law enforcement matters, but it is probably also that Trump is deporting criminal illegal aliens.
According to Patel, “Let good cops be cops,” is the answer. “I’m gonna let you, the agents, the police officers, the sheriffs, go out there and do the work you so badly want to do. And I’m gonna give you the resources you need to do it. And I’m gonna take away the politicization and weaponization … and that’s what we’ve done.”
Instead of placing a third of FBI agents in the D.C. area, Patel has moved them out across the country to where the crime is occurring. A recent Biden administration document that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified shows that law enforcement resources were being spent on “non-criminal” activities of conservative Catholics, people attending school board meetings, and flagging those who used symbols like “2A” and imagery referencing the Second Amendment. The FBI sent a memo to over 1,000 employees nationwide instructing them to target conservative Catholics.
Ken Lane posted that his blog took off when he drowned an asshole in Bear spray. This one happened to a Karen like protester, but if you watch the video, you wish you were pushing the button.
Surprise! They weren’t all like that, as viral video of a group of “protesters” in Charlotte, North Carolina, proved.
The video, which went viral after being reposted by antifa-chronicler Andy Ngo, began with some long-haired dude yelling at police on bikes to “de-escalate” and asking them if they knew what that meant, claiming that they punched his girlfriend. (What appears to be his girlfriend, for what it’s worth, didn’t seem too upset and seemed to want the guy to de-escalate.)
“Yeah, y’all real tough,” one protester can be heard saying before the camera panned through the crowd — with its assemblage of various lefty archetypes holding Mexican or upside-down American flags — to the front line at the intersection.
Charlotte, N.C. — A far-left rioter cried and writhed when pepper spray was deployed after a group of 'No Kings' protesters attempted to break through the police line.
Most know it as a basketball school. Others know it because they couldn’t get into Duke so they went to UNC-CH. Others know it for what it is, a liberal indoctrination center that not only affects it’s students, it has ruined the whole town. At least you know everyone is left of the left when you go there. Oh, woke could have been invented on the campus. Look what they did during BLM. But for now, look at how they screwed America developing Covid-19.
Later in the article (link below), it talks about less precaution than the Wuhan Lab. Right in the middle of Flyover America, they are making these poisons, both sickness and supposed cure.
In the shadow of some scientific research lies the potential for catastrophic consequences. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s virology program, spearheaded by Dr. Ralph Baric, deserves attention for technical achievement but also for questionable safety practices.
According to an Aug. 17, 2020 ProPublica investigation and a follow-up piece, from 2015 to 2020 UNC-Chapel Hill reported 28 lab accidents involving genetically engineered viruses, including six genetically engineered coronaviruses accidents, to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). In one mishap — in April 2020, 90 days into the pandemic — a UNC researcher was bitten on the index finger by a mouse infected with a novel SARS-CoV-2 variant created in Chapel Hill. While we were shut in our homes, the researcher was asked to self-quarantine for 14 days, and the local health department was notified of the incident.
It is helpful to judge public health risk as a relative matter with more than one data point. Since 1952, NC State University has operated a campus nuclear reactor in downtown Raleigh closely regulated by state and federal authorities. If there were a radiation accident, no one would disagree it would be an acute health risk to the region. Therefore, the reactor is monitored by the government.
Compared to other risks, virology research at the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health involving SARS-CoV-2, MERS coronavirus, and related animal coronaviruses operates in an unmonitored, unregulated environment, posing potentially catastrophic global consequences if mishandled. This unmonitored, unregulated research is both a local and a global concern.
Recent documents obtained by court order by the public advocacy non-profit US Right to Know (USRTK) reveal that UNC developed and then exported dangerous coronavirus technologies and coronavirus research plans in the years leading up to the pandemic.
It’s a farce of a holiday anyway. It’s one that democrats made up to make themselves feel better as 100% of the slave owners were democrats.
A growing number of Juneteenth events across the U.S. are being scaled back or canceled as local governments and companies retreat from Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives—a broader trend that critics say reflects growing public fatigue with corporate activism.
In Denver, one of the country’s largest Juneteenth celebrations was forced to slash its programming after more than a dozen corporate sponsors pulled out. Norman Harris, executive director of the Juneteenth Music Festival, said:
“There were quite a few sponsors who pulled back their investments or let us know they couldn’t or wouldn’t be in a position to support this year,” said Harris, who has overseen the event for more than a decade.
The two-day event in the city’s historic Five Points neighborhood was cut to just one day. Harris added:
“Thankfully, there was a wide range of support that came when we made the announcement that the celebration is in jeopardy.”
It’s not just Denver. In West Virginia, Juneteenth events were canceled altogether, with the governor’s office citing financial strain. The announcement followed Gov. Patrick Morrisey’s signing of legislation to eliminate all DEI programs statewide. His office said:
“Due to the continued fiscal challenges facing West Virginia, state government will not be sponsoring any formal activities,” deputy press secretary Drew Galang said in an email.
All she wanted for her birthday this year was some wholesome entertainment in the form of a stripper. Is that too much to ask from the nursing home she resides in? Absolutely not.
Griffiths’ request came in the form of a wish that each of the 22 residents of the Hawthorn Court Care Home were invited to make on a “wishing tree,” according to Wales Online.
She wrote, “It is my birthday coming up, so I would like a stripper.” The staff went about making the arrangements to make this centenarian’s wish for a “butler in the buff” come true.
The manager of the nursing home wasn’t at all surprised by the wish. She said, “It’s Gwyneth to a T… she is one hell of a woman!”
One of her children says that when she was younger she was a very quiet and mild-mannered woman. She was much more reserved than she is today.
I told my Parisian friend Jacques that the goat herders were going to take the French out of France to which he said bullshit. This would have been the 90’s.
The number of Afghans seeking asylum in France has increased dramatically in recent years, especially since the Taliban took over in 2021. I’m sure you’re as shocked as I am to learn that Afghans in France are significantly overrepresented among the perpetrators of violent crime, rape, and child molestation. They are more likely to commit such crimes even compared with other Muslim culture-enrichers.

More than 100,000 Afghans are living in France, requests for asylum increasing “exponentially”
by Elisabeth Pierson
A report for Fondapol [progressive think tank] and the Observatory for Immigration and Demographics shows that Afghans have become the leading nationality in requesting asylum after the Ukrainians. A “massive, recent, and unexpected phenomenon in its size,” says the report prepared by Ofii.
In 2007, some 1,600 Afghans were living in French territory, according to Insee*. Twenty years later, there are 100,000, of whom three-quarters arrived in the past ten years, a report for Fondapol and the Observatory for Immigration and Demographics reveals. This report, published on June 6 by the French Office of Immigration and Integration (Ofii), underlines a “massive, recent, and unexpected phenomenon in its size,” according to its Director General, Didier Leschi.
That is because among the Afghan community, three-quarters arrived after 2016, the report reveals. 89,000 hold a residence permit, and more than 10,000 others were being processed by Ofpra** (French Foreign Affairs Ministry) in 2024. Depending on the time needed to process, “they will receive a residence permit in 2025 or 2026. This propels the Afghans into the top 10 nationalities holding a residence permit,” even though the historical ties between France and Syria are older and deeper, France having exercised a mandate over Syria beginning in 1918,” according to Ofii.
A 40-year-old Italian woman was raped by a man, reportedly a North African male, while out walking on a nature trail with her dog in Legnago near the Adige River. A manhunt is currently underway for the suspect, with other women also describing a North African male attempting to rape them in the area.
The incident, which happened last Friday at 7 p.m., occurred on the right bank of the river, and is a popular spot for walkers and runners in the summer.
The woman was dragged into a bush by the stranger, described as “Maghreb and in his 30s,” who proceeded to rape the woman. However, the woman’s dog would not stop barking, which alerted two strangers in the vicinity who noticed what was happening and came to the woman’s aid. When they approached the woman, the attacker fled, leaving the woman half-naked in the bush. The woman was reportedly described as being in shock, according to Italian newspaper Larena.
I should (can’t) overlook their Muslim problem and that they are being invaded and don’t know it, but to buy into this climate nonsense and spend waste that much money on it baffles one with an IQ of 3 digits.
We looked at the new Spending Review, which has allocated £45.1 billion to Mad Miliband’s DESNZ to spend in the next four years.
I thought I would also try to put some costings on other Government expenditure which is devoted to the pursuit of Net Zero.
£2.6 billion over Phase 2 (2026/27 to 2029/30) for decarbonising transport
£2.3 billion for local transport “improvements”, including cycle lanes and bus lanes, again over Phase 2
£2.7 billion a year for sustainable farming and nature recovery.
The Renewable Heat Incentive at £1.3 billion a year.
In addition there is international climate aid, which will be funded out of the Official Development Assistance budget. This has been running at over £3 billion a year for this year and last.
Then there is revenue foregone by the refusal to make EV drivers pay their proper share of car tax. Fuel duties currently bring around £24 billion a year. Currently there are about 1.5 million BEVs on the road, 5% of the total; so the Treasury is already losing about £1 billion in revenue. By 2030, the number of electric cars could potentially rise to 7 million, leaving a blackhole of £5 million a year.
There are many other costs incurred which are simply impossible to quantify or remain hidden from public view. For instance:
The Affordable Homes Programme, which includes funding for energy efficient homes
Local Government Funding, some of which is channelled to decarbonisation initiative
Electric ambulances
£15.6 billion for local transport in cities
Decarbonisation of public buildings, paid for through the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme
I was reading the substack of Miguel Gonzales, he formerly of the Gun Free Zone blog. In the installment in question, he was relating a sort of fail, wherein he had a (I guess) “conversation” with a soul who articulated the (I guess) “thought” that Mr. Trump’s shooting in Butler PA last summer, was faked. Miguel described how that was, to be charitable, unlikely, with several failure modes which Miguel described.
His correspondent then pivoted to describe how tariffs were a horrible idea.
I could not enter my comment, so I inflict it upon you here.
“So, your corespondent was an ELEVENTY! Sharpshooter, eh? As well as an economist?
Was this soul an epidemiologist, as well?
I am reminded of the story of a fellow who, finding himself in the company of The Guru, and, seeking wisdom, inquired how The Guru achieved wisdom?
The Guru instructed the fellow, “Well, I never argue with stupid people.”
The fellow countered, “But, don’t you have an obligation to correct stupid people? Do you not have an obligation to set them straight?”
The Guru looked at him a moment, and then told him, “Of course. You are right.”
