Texas pediatrician's flood post claiming
MAGA 'got what they voted for' backfires spectacularly
Posted By: sunset, 7/7/2025 12:26:56 PM
A Texas pediatrician has been fired after claiming that Trump supporters got what they voted for following the tragic floods in the state. Dr Christina Propst sparked massive backlash after she took to Facebook to share a now-deleted message where she appeared to take glee in the floods that have left 82 dead, including at least 28 children. 'May all visitors, children, non-MAGA voters and pets be safe and dry,' the post read. 'Kerr County MAGA voted to gut FEMA. They deny climate change. May they get what they voted for. Bless their hearts.'

As lawmakers begin crafting the 12 annual appropriations bills to fund the federal government in fiscal year 2026, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has implied that his party will refuse to cooperate in the process if Republicans revoke billions in funding from previous years. The Senate is set to vote on a rescissions package that narrowly passed the House in June and would cancel already appropriated federal funds for public broadcasting and some foreign aid programs.
Republicans only need a majority vote for the legislation to pass. The Rescissions Act of 2025, compiled by the Office of Management and Budget, requests the cancellation of federal spending deemed wasteful
The Austin firefighters union will decide Tuesday whether to initiate a no-confidence vote against Fire Chief Joel Baker for allegedly waiting to send local firefighters to Kerr County to help with flood response. “We are disgusted with our fire chief,” the Austin Firefighters Association said in a Monday post on its Facebook page. “He needs to be held accountable and fired for his disgraceful dereliction of duty.” Association President Bob Nicks told the American-Statesman the Fire Department denied an informal request from the state for help on July 2 ahead of a storm that ended up killing at least 84 people. Another request on July 3 was also denied.
Here in North America, the United States and Canada are both fortunate in having an abundance of rich farmlands. Drive through northern Indiana, through the dairy country of Wisconsin, the wheatfields of Kansas, or the vast grazing lands of the Great Plains, all the way north to Alberta, and you'll see the great agricultural country that could feed the entire world. These are the fruited plains and the amber waves of grain that Katharine Lee Bates was writing about in "America the Beautiful."
On Tuesday, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins announced a new federal initiative to protect those lands—and keep the lands in the United States in American hands.
The I.R.S. said on Monday that churches and other houses of worship can endorse political candidates to their congregations, carving out an exemption in a decades-old ban on political activity by tax-exempt nonprofits. The agency made that statement in a court filing intended to settle a lawsuit filed by two Texas churches and an association of Christian broadcasters.
The plaintiffs that sued the I.R.S. had previously asked a federal court in Texas to create an even broader exemption(snip).The agency said that if a house of worship endorsed a candidate to its congregants, the I.R.S. would view that not as campaigning but as a private matter, like “a family discussion concerning candidates.”
Flyers warning immigrants to 'self-deport'

show up in immigration courts, creating uproar 10 replies
Flyers warning immigrants to "self-deport" are being distributed to immigrants at immigration courts including those in Phoenix.
The flyers are generated by the U.S. Department of Justice, which oversees the nation's immigration court system, including immigration judges.
The flyers, written in English and Spanish, are part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to pressure undocumented immigrants to self-deport amid recent ICE arrests at immigration courts and an expanding immigration crackdown and mass deportation agenda. Immigrant advocates say the flyers, titled "Message to Illegal Aliens: A Warning to Self-Deport," contain misleading information
The Trump administration is terminating temporary protected status (TPS) for Honduran and Nicaraguan migrants residing in the United States.
The move is part of President Donald Trump’s efforts to curb illegal immigration and remove those already in the country. "It is clear that the Government of Honduras has taken all of the necessary steps to overcome the impacts of Hurricane Mitch, almost 27 years ago,” Noem added.
The secretary explained that “Honduran citizens can safely return home, and DHS is here to help facilitate their voluntary return.”

President Trump threatened to impose an additional 10 percent tariff on countries “aligning” themselves with the BRICS bloc of developing nations. “Any Country aligning themselves with the Anti-American policies of BRICS, will be charged an ADDITIONAL 10% Tariff. There will be no exceptions to this policy. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post Sunday evening. The threat comes after members of the BRICS group issued a declaration on Sunday condemning the U.S. increase in tariffs, as well as the strikes on Iran — all without mentioning Trump by name.

center as woke crowd tries to storm holding cells 28 replies
Chaos erupted at an ICE detention facility in Portland, Oregon after hundreds of protesters attempted to storm holding cells. Demonstrators were seen being tackled to the ground as officers deployed smoke bombs and tear gas to try and control the crowd yesterday.
Dramatic footage posted on X by independent journalist Katie Daviscourt shows flares lighting up the night sky, as protesters clash with officers in riot gear who appeared to fire rubber bullets into the crowd. The demonstration occurred on the 28th day that protesters have been occupying the ICE facility. The mayhem Friday broke out just hours after the President signed his so-called 'big, beautiful bill' into law

land for training runs into Native Hawaiian opposition 9 replies
A high-altitude plateau on the Big Island is the only place in Hawaii where thousands of ground forces can practice firing live munitions. It’s also a place many Native Hawaiians consider the spiritual heart of the island.
The U.S. military wants to keep training at this spot, called Pohakuloa, so it’s ready to quickly send troops to Asia and the Pacific. Its importance to the U.S. is only growing as China becomes more assertive, particularly regarding Taiwan. But the Army’s lease for state lands beneath a key part of the training range expires in 2029.
In a matter of days, an isolated training airport in the Everglades where endangered Florida panthers roam became a sprawling immigration detention center christened "Alligator Alcatraz,” modeled after the state’s frequent responses to hurricanes and built in part by companies whose owners have donated generously to Republicans.
It’s been less than two weeks since the state seized the property from Miami-Dade County. Massive tents have been erected and a steady stream of trucks carrying portable toilets, asphalt and construction materials have been driving through the site inside the Big Cypress National Preserve around the clock...
A flight carrying eight men who had been held for weeks on a U.S. military base in Djibouti landed in South Sudan just before midnight Friday, officials said, bringing an end to a six-week legal battle that was resolved by an emergency intervention by the Supreme Court.
The U.S. military plane took off around 8:30 p.m. Eastern time, according to Tricia McLaughlin, a Homeland Security spokeswoman. A picture shared by Homeland Security showed the men apparently aboard the airplane, handcuffed and shackled at their ankles, surrounded by uniformed personnel.

The government's Epstein problem
37 replies
None of us ever would have heard of Jeffrey Epstein had the government not brought him up. It was the government that brought charges against him. The government told us that he was “the most prolific child sex trafficker in history.” The government said he was “with intelligence.” The government cut him a sweetheart deal. The government was taken to court by “John Doe” over what the government called “client lists.” The government courts made a ruling about the “client lists” not being released. Senator Dick Durbin blocked the release of the “client list” in the legislative branch of the government. The government said it had “client lists” on its desk.

Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) said Tuesday on CNN’s “News Central” that Congress has a “responsibility” to look into whether the Trump administration’s cuts to the National Weather Service affected the amount of deviation of the deadly central Texas floods.
Co-host Kate Bolduan said, “To is these deadly floods in Texas as these the search continues for the missing there are big questions being raised about the warnings that happened and the impacts also of cuts to — that the Trump administration had made to the National Weather Service.”

Justice Department says, walking back

Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a “client list,” the Justice Department acknowledged Monday as it said no more files related to the wealthy financier’s sex trafficking investigation would be made public despite promises from Attorney General Pam Bondi that had raised the expectations of conservative influencers and conspiracy theorists.The acknowledgment that the well-connected Epstein did not have a list of clients to whom underage girls were trafficked represents a public walk-back of a theory that the Trump administration had helped promote, with Bondi suggesting in a Fox News interview earlier this year that such a document was “sitting on my desk” for review.

The influencer 4xtra, who co-hosts the No Jumper podcast, asked his fanbase who wants to get blown up in a video that went viral on social media. He was seen carrying some unlit fireworks in the clip.
"Who wants to get blown up today," he said in the video.
"I’m going to blow your a– up! I’m blowing somebody up today.”
4Xtra was left injured following the fireworks accident, his sister Emily said in a GoFundMe page that has since been created. Emily paid tribute to her brother, whose real name is Resan.
“Resan is someone who lights up every room with his humor and energy,” she said.

The answer is this: The consumers of these goods and services are often relatively poor. Poor people are bad at both making money and spending money. They make too little of it and they spend too much of it – on things that are wasteful or even harmful to themselves and to society. Much of what they spend is on credit cards with 22% interest rates.
It’s no secret that Joe Biden nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve on the United States Supreme Court because she is a black woman.* In other words, she was not chosen for her judicial acumen, but for her political identity. That goes a long way to explaining the absolutely lunatic dissent she issued to a Supreme Court order. That order stayed a California district court judge’s ruling blocking President Trump from ordering agency heads to produce plans for possible “Reductions in Force.”
What happened to the Jeffrey Epstein case? It’s devolved into the unfinished horse meme. We were promised transparency, accountability, and the whole truth regarding the notorious sexual predator, alleged sex trafficker, and well-connected New York financier. Epstein was well acquainted with the world’s wealthy and influential families. In the summer of 2019, federal agents arrested him on sex trafficking charges. On August 10, 2019, he was found dead in his cell. [snip] It’s a perpetual cycle of being served a big plate of nothing, that started embarrassingly for the new Justice Department

to Burn It to the Ground Right Before Release 19 replies
Another "Superman" movie is about to be released . . . At the head of the endeavor is director James Gunn, perhaps best known for his work on the "Guardians of the Galaxy" franchise . . . Which makes his decision to burn all the goodwill around his film to the ground right before its release a real headscratcher. During a recent interview with The Times of London, Gunn stated his movie is "about politics," citing the illegal immigration situation in the United States, and his answer to anyone who doesn't like that is "screw them."
Remember this moment in 2019 when Democrats were asked to raise their hands if they supported treating border crossing as a civil issue aka decriminalize the border. Nearly ever hand went up. In retrospect, some Democrats are realizing this may have been a big mistake.
Six years later, the party remains haunted by that tableau. It stands both as a vivid demonstration of a leftward policy shift on immigration that many prominent Democratic lawmakers and strategists now say they deeply regret, and as a marker of how sharply the country was moving in the other direction.

Murder After Ambushing Officers Near ICE Facility 18 replies
A group of left-wing militants is facing charges after ambushing officers outside of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility on July 4, the latest attack in what’s fast becoming a trend of leftist violence towards federal agents.
The Justice Department filed a complaint Monday against ten defendants for organizing the ambush at an ICE facility in Alvarado, Texas on the Fourth of July. Each defendant is being charged with three counts of attempted murder of a federal officer and three counts of discharging a firearm

Days ago we read about the passing of liberal surgeon Dr. Joseph Giordano, who said to the grievously wounded President Reagan before surgery, as the president was on the operating table with a bullet in his chest, "Today we are all Republicans". Today, we have this.
