L.A. burns for the second time in six
months, Trump sends troops, and local
wokester pols bleat tin-earred responses

Sometimes stupidity can't be fixed. Which brings us to the ridiculous, tin-earred reactions to President Trump's statesmanlike, Reaganesque decision to dispatch the National Guard to restore order to the nation's second-largest city in the wake of illegally present foreign nationals violently rioting over ICE enforcement operations, the city set on fire. How does one explain the idiocy of just this?

As you’re probably aware, illegal aliens, communists, Antifa foot soldiers, and other agents of Marxism, Islam, and chaos, went to war against federal law enforcement officers rounding up illegal aliens in Los Angeles (estimated to be 10% of Los Angeles County’s population, although I suspect that estimate is very, very low). There’s a lot to say about all this, including the notable fact that the people who were setting fires and throwing projectiles waved Mexican and “Palestinian” flags, and were funded by socialist NGOs, but I actually want to focus specifically on California’s governor, Gavin Newsom.
The problem with the courts is the same as the problem with many of our other institutions. Called the Skinsuit Phenomenon, after the great @Iowahawk’s famous tweet that perfectly sums up the leftist approach to marching through our society: “1. Identify a respected institution. 2. Kill it. 3. Gut it. 4. Wear its carcass as a skinsuit, while demanding respect. #lefties.” The courts are supposed to have respect because they’re supposed to do their job, but, as is so common these days, they’re not doing the job, yet they still expect the respect. That’s just not in the cards.
The legacy media finds itself in a dilemma of its own making. The depth and seriousness of Joe Biden’s mental and physical problems during his presidency are being exposed daily—ironically, much of it by the denizens of the legacy media as they feverishly attempt to absolve their culpability in keeping the American people in the dark about Biden’s unfolding mental and physical infirmities as well as what was really happening in the Oval Office. The net result of this disingenuous mea culpa will accelerate the already record downward spiral in the citizenry’s trust in the media.
Bumbling Biden Was Still a Tyrant

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard continues to declassify documents that show how the Biden administration defined political opponents as “Domestic Violent Extremists” (DVEs). In a December 13, 2021, intelligence product entitled, “DVEs and Foreign Analogues May React Violently to COVID-19 Mitigation Mandates,” the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Homeland Security, and National Counterterrorism Center created a framework for investigating critics of Biden’s COVID policies and labeling them potential domestic terrorists.
The report claims that “anti government or anti authority” Americans see “COVID-19 vaccination and mask mandates as evidence of government overreach”
Forgery is a crime we don’t hear much about anymore since few people write checks and instead rely on electronic payment methods. It can take many forms, such as signing a check or document in someone else’s name without their permission or knowledge. Creating a false document like a driver’s license was once a teenage rite of passage, but it was much easier in my day when the license was a piece of paper rather than a hardened piece of plastic containing myriad anti-fraud provisions.
Trump’s not-so-secret weapon

Pres. Trump will be getting his big, beautiful bill. It won’t be right away, but it shouldn’t be much past Labor Day.
There’s a lot of handwringing and confusion over this bill by would-be deficit hawks, Elon Musk included. But I don’t think most of them have the foggiest idea what’s really happening.
As Stephen Miller pointed out, Budget Reconciliation only allows changes to mandatory program spending like Medicaid. It isn’t an appropriations bill. What Republicans are trying to do with this measure is cut some taxes and peel back the huge enrollments in Medicaid the Biden people engineered the last few years.
Crying Over George Floyd

Well, it’s been five years since the Saint George Floyd incident, and what have we learned? What has been done?
I won’t bother to rehash who and what Saint George was -- that is readily available to anyone who cares to look. Suffice to say, the narrative isn’t remotely accurate. But with the Left the narrative is seldom accurate, as that isn’t its goal. It’s the emotional -- and manipulative -- storyline that’s important, not reality.
I’ve been a management consultant for decades and in the course of my work I’ve been to some of the toughest neighborhoods in the country. Very few white folks have seen and been where I have.
When City Hall Chooses the Mob

In Seattle last weekend, violence broke out—not from the pulpit, but from the pavement.
Pastors and churchgoers, gathered for a permitted worship event in a city park, found themselves besieged by a black-clad mob who attempted to tear down fencing, rush the stage, and shout them down.
The attackers were not counter-protesters in any constitutional sense of the word. They were masked militants whose tactics have become a hallmark of Antifa: organized, aggressive, and aimed not at persuasion but suppression.
To their credit, the Seattle police intervened. Arrests were made. Barricades held. For a moment, law reasserted itself in a city too long governed by hesitation.
Does America have a Muslim problem?
30 replies
In a brief return to Britain, I was concerned to see that London has undergone a dramatic demographic change. The city of my birth is visibly more Muslim than it was even four years ago. On the Tube, I saw more hijabs than baseball caps. The Muslim niqab -- with its full face covering -- is no longer rare.
For decades, Brits have not been allowed to question the wisdom of importing large numbers of people into a western society who do not share western values. (Brits who do so on social media risk going to prison).
When the smoke was still rising from the rubble of the Twin Towers, the American people were reeling, grieving—and vulnerable. That vulnerability was weaponized. In one of the most cunning bait-and-switch maneuvers in modern history, our government handed us the Patriot Act—an Orwellian surveillance framework disguised as national defense.
We didn’t just get conned—we got conquered. Not by terrorists from abroad, but by tyrants in suits.
The Patriot Act was born less than two months after 9/11, passed with breakneck speed, virtually unread by the very members of Congress who signed it into law.

To move forward, we debate, not demonize. We discuss, not destroy. But in this moment – this moment, this morning – our sacred rule of law is under attack. Journalism is under attack. Universities are under attack. Freedom of speech is under attack. An insidious fear is reaching through our schools
Disgraced former FBI Director, James Comey, mysteriously found seashells on his beach walk listing the numbers, “8647,” which to any half-aware person means, “Assassinate President Trump.” Comey posted on Instagram, “Cool shell formation on my beach walk…” and then after push back, he removed it and posted an imbecilic excuse stating, “I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence. It never occurred to me, but I oppose violence of any kind, so I took the post down.”
What a deranged idiot!

Comedian Kathy Griffin said Thursday on the “Don Lemon Show” that she did not believe President Donald Trump won freely and fairly in the 2o24 presidential election.
Griffin asked, “Are you ready for a tin-foil hat moment?”
Lemon said, “Yes.”
Griffin said, “I am just going to be bold and say this. You know, you can take issue with this all you want. I do not think he won in a free and fair election. How do you like that, lefties? Yeah, I said it. I’m Kathy Griffin, and I do not think Trump won in a free and fair election. I believe there was tampering.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California lawmakers this week advanced several efforts aimed at reining in utility profits and slashing electricity bills as part of their agenda to tackle the sky-high costs of living. The proposals would make sweeping changes to how utilities fund expensive infrastructure projects like putting power lines underground to guard against wildfires. They also would add more oversight around wildfire mitigation spending and put new requirements on utility requests to increase rates. Supporters said the goal is to make the big investor-owned utilities start sharing some of the costs to fight wildfires and build new transmission infrastructure. “This
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass issued a wild statement on Friday in the wake of the start of the anti-ICE rioting in her city, saying "We will not stand for this." She didn't mean they wouldn't stand for the riots or obstructing law enforcement, she meant they wouldn't stand for the ICE actions. This morning, we received reports of federal immigration enforcement actions in multiple locations in Los Angeles. As Mayor of a proud city of immigrants, who contribute to our city in so many ways, I am deeply angered by what has taken place. These tactics sow terror in our communities
The Elon-Trump Bromance Crashes and Burns

Elon Musk is First Buddy no longer.
The epic bromance between Musk and President Donald Trump, between the richest man on the planet and the most powerful one, has come to an end, not with a bang but with a tweet: Just days after Trump granted Musk a golden key in an Oval Office send-off from his role as head of DOGE and adviser to the White House, Musk unleashed on the president’s Big Beautiful Bill: “I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore,” he wrote on his social media platform, X. “This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination.
Olympic gymnastics icon Simone Biles called out former National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) swimmer Riley Gaines for her vocal opposition to allowing males who identify as females to compete in women’s sports.
Gaines shared a comment regarding Champlin Park’s Class AAAA Softball State Champion for 2025, with a clear implication that the star player was male.(Snip)Biles responded and said that this perspective fosters division and harms the transgender community, with some calling it a form of “bullying” instead of supporting inclusivity.
Logic proves that the Biblical God exists

William Sullivan’s essay regarding scientific atheism is intriguing and enlightening. It got me thinking about a very simple proof for a Creator.
The atheist loves to proclaim, “There is no scientific proof of the existence of God!” This is true, since by “scientific” proof, the atheist means “empirical” proof, and there is no empirical proof of anything.
However, it is quite easy to use logic to prove in easy steps that God exists and that He is the God of the Bible.
1. Every existing thing either is or is not existentially dependent upon the action of other beings. Those beings that are existentially dependent are called “contingent.” A being that is not
It's getting wild in California.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom should have called out the National Guard himself to deal with the riots now ongoing around the Los Angeles area. But he didn't. And it's getting crazy, with federal law enforcement assaulted, even cars set on fire as people wave foreign flags.
Fox News reporter Bill Melugin even shared video that someone took in one of the CBP vehicles that was attacked; a Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agent was injured in the melee. So, now Border Czar Tom Homan says they are bringing in the Guard in response. Newsom is throwing a tantrum on X over the reported action.
Far-left Rep. Pramila Jayapal has begun proudly hosting “shadow hearings” about the deportation of alleged illegal alien gang bangers.
Titled “Kidnapped and Disappeared: Trump’s Lawless Third Country Disappearances,” the first hearing was held Friday: [Tweet, video]
“Since taking office in January, President Trump has shown nothing but utter contempt for the Constitution,” Jayapal said in a statement. “He has ignored and decimated the traditional role of Congress and defied and defamed the courts, doing untold damage to our democracy.”
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) carried out operations at businesses across Los Angeles on Friday, sparking protests and clashes outside at least one location, which resulted in authorities throwing flash bangs in an effort to disperse the crowd.
The Associated Press reported that immigration advocates confirmed nearly 45 people were arrested across seven locations. The locations included two Home Depot stores, a store in the fashion district and a doughnut shop, according to Angelica Salas, the executive director of the Coalition of Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA), who spoke at an afternoon news conference to denounce the actions.

Two parents are facing charges after their seven-year-old son was fatally struck by a vehicle while walking home with his brother in Gastonia, North Carolina.
The Gastonia Police Department announced in a press release that it had filed criminal charges against Samuele Jenkins and Jessica Ivey for allowing their children to walk two blocks to the store. The parents are facing charges of Felony Involuntary Manslaughter, Felony Child Neglect, and Misdemeanor Child Neglect.
“On Tuesday, May 27, 2025, at approximately 5:55 p.m., officers responded to a reported traffic collision in the 1000 block of West Hudson Boulevard,” the press release said.
Los Angeles has been embroiled in anti-ICE riots for the last couple of days.
We've been reporting on a lot of the violence, including assailing a federal detention facility, hurling rocks at agents in cars, blocking their vehicles, damaging property, and even setting vehicles on fire while waving a foreign flag.
Yet what you got from the local officials was failed action. The first statement from Mayor Bass on Friday was encouraging the bad actors. DHS said their building was surrounded, and it took the police two hours to respond to their calls.
Private companies can do whatever they want,” leftists once snorted in defense of companies like Facebook banning conservative speech.
But now the tables have turned, and LGBTQ activists have found themselves in a state between panicked and sulky as their fair-weather friends in corporate America are pulling sponsorships of Pride celebrations this month.
As a result, Pride events across the nation are facing budget shortfalls, and activists are blaming everyone but themselves. At least 14 companies — including Pepsi, Citi, MasterCard, Nissan, Garnier, and US defense contractor Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corp. — have dropped or greatly scaled back their financial contributions to annual Pride events nationwide.
