Trump's Ultimatum

Somebody turned the Kremlin bluster machine up to 11 following President Donald Trump's 50-day ultimatum to agree to a ceasefire with Ukraine — or else. My PJ Media colleague Matt Margolis covered the "or else" earlier today, but the executive summary is that unless Moscow agrees to a ceasefire within 50 days, Trump will impose a 100% tariff on exports from Russia and countries that buy Russian oil — targeting major buyers like China, India, Brazil, Turkey, and Europe, too. There's also a heavy sanctions bill working its way through the Senate that Trump says he's warming to. The new tariffs go hand-in-glove with Trump's promise on Sunday

Putin obviously doesn't care, but Russians might get fed up with the loss of their male population, inflation, isolation, more hardship, and no relief in sight. What benefit are the Russian people receiving from this war? None.

I see a lot of self-styled "smart observers" of the world stage wondering about "Why 50 days?" and then coming up with all kinds of tactical reasons for why... And all of them are wrong. Trump gave Iran 50 days to negotiate also. Iran didn't take him seriously and believed they would get another 50. On day 51, Israel began "Operation Rising Lion." Same thing is in the works for day 51 with Russia. This time, Ukraine will be the proxy agent, and they will be executing "Operation Russkiye Mirage"... to put an end to warped Russian fantasies that they live in an invincible, expanding empire.

WATCH: CNN Panel Explodes Over the Price
of Eggs Under Trump

During a heated exchange on CNN, Democratic strategist Julie Roginsky and anchor Abby Phillip went berserk after Scott Jennings pointed out a simple, inconvenient truth: Under President Donald Trump, the price of eggs has dropped — just as he promised. It all started when Jennings highlighted the economic success of Trump’s policies. “The core CPI forecast was 3%. It came in at 2.9. For the five months of Trump’s administration, inflation has matched or beat expectations,” he said. He added that the economy is “booming with new investments” and that the administration has reason to be “bullish on America.” Jennings pointed to Trump’s push to make the 2017 tax cuts permanent

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security deported several illegal immigrants, including those convicted of serious crimes like murder and child rape, to a tiny land-locked nation in southern Africa. DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin announced the move in an X post late Tuesday. "A safe third country deportation flight to Eswatini in Southern Africa has landed— This flight took individuals so uniquely barbaric that their home countries refused to take them back," she wrote. "These depraved monsters have been terrorizing American communities, but thanks to [President Trump] (and) [DHS Secretary Kristi Noem], they are off of American soil."

The Senate on Monday confirmed the first judicial nominee of President Trump’s second term. Whitney Hermandorfer will now be a U.S. Circuit Judge for the Sixth Circuit, the Cincinnati-based bench that hears appeals from Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and Tennessee Hermandorfer, of Tennessee, was confirmed by a 46-42 vote along party lines. She will replace an Obama pick, Judge Jane Branstetter Stranch. Twelve senators did not vote. Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) called the confirmation of Hermandorfer “a boon to the federal judiciary.”

The Republican Party doesn’t make it easy. With these razor-thin majorities, nothing will be easy. And one way to blow it is not over the Epstein files. Please, we’re not losing the midterms over that, but granting amnesty to illegal aliens could do it. What the hell even is this? With the Senate trying to pass President Trump’s rescissions package, which codifies $9 billion in cuts—a test of sorts for another run with deeper reductions—the House Republicans felt it was incumbent upon them to hash out an immigration compromise with some of the worst people. Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) might as well be a Democrat,

After the U.S. strikes on the Iranian nuclear program, there was considerable concern about sleeper cells within the U.S. being activated; now it is clear that they’re not the only threat from Iran that American officials have to be worried about. Are agents of the Islamic Republic also taking advantage of the still-vulnerable northern border? A news item on Tuesday certainly suggested as much. Fox News reported that “a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) spokesman confirmed Tuesday that five Iranians were arrested while attempting to illegally cross the U.S. northern border with Canada.” CBP's Swanton Sector stated that “on July 1, Border Patrol Agents from the Champlain, New York Station,

In a unanimous vote Monday evening, the House of Representatives passed a bill that memorializes a twelve-year-old Texas girl who was allegedly murdered by two illegal aliens last year. The legislation renames the Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge to the "Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge". The refuge boasts 39,000 acres that serve as a home for migrating birds and other wildlife. The vote was 372-0, with 59 lawmakers not present for the vote. The bill will now be passed to President Trump for his official signature, which would make the bill permanent law. "Ms. Nungaray loved animals," said the bill. "And, given the close proximity of her hometown of Houston,

The June inflation report just dropped, and right on cue, the left's spin machine is in full swing. Consumer prices ticked up slightly, and now they’re scrambling to spin it as proof that Donald Trump’s America First trade agenda is tanking the economy. But don’t fall for the headlines; they’re not telling you the whole story. Yes, the Consumer Price Index rose 0.3% last month, pushing the annual inflation rate to 2.7%. That’s a bit above the Fed’s 2% target and the highest since February, but it was exactly what Wall Street expected. Actually, it was better. For starters, the Fed expected an increase in inflation,

Can CNN get worse? That's an evergreen question with an evergreen answer. On Monday, libertarian commentator Brad Polumbo was part of the panel on Abby Phillip's primetime show, and things quickly devolved into racism after Ana Navarro couldn't form an actual rebuttal. The co-host of "The View" claimed that Donald Trump's presidency has been a "reign of terror." At that point, Polumbo rightly, and fairly politely, pointed out that such a statement is hyperbolic. Did Navarro then provide evidence to back up her rhetoric? Of course, not. She dismissed Polumbo as a "white man" whose opinions don't matter because of his race.

I’m convinced that the “average” Democratic voter has no clue about the true ideology of Leftism and the Democratic Party. Historically, they are (excuse me) as dumb as rocks, and they probably don’t even know what the word “ideology” means. Now, the Obamas, Pelosis, Schumer, etc., know EXACTLY what they are doing. They are godless, globalist, Marxist-Leninists who are deliberately trying to destroy the traditional values and beliefs of the United States of America. But the average Democratic Party voter isn’t nearly that educated. So, I want to help them out a little here.

For most Republicans, Jeffrey Epstein is a peripheral issue — more of a distraction than MAGA’s casus belli. In most Republicans’ minds, issues like the budget, national defense, trade, affordability, immigration, and taxation are far more important than the loathsome actions of any one creep. But it doesn’t matter what most Republicans want, because elections are won on the margins. I often disagree with Steve Bannon on policy, but his instincts for political tactics are razor sharp.

Ah, Democrats. They always seem to pick the wrong side of the big issues. We see that with everything from illegal aliens to the economy. But even on basic life issues, they don't seem to make any sense. Dems showed that when it came to their reactions to Vice President JD Vance's trip to Disneyland with his family. There were protesters outside the park. As we reported, California Gov. Gavin Newsom made a creepy comment to him about his family, "Hope you enjoy your family time, @JDVance. The families you’re tearing apart certainly won’t." He's desperate for attention, isn't he? Vance finished his thirsty attack with his calm response,

Vice President JD Vance cast two tie-breaking votes in the Senate Tuesday to move forward a $9.4B rescissions package — which would rip federal funding from PBS and NPR — in the upper chamber. The Senate deadlocked, 50-50, on two procedural votes to start debate on the multibillion-dollar spending clawback package before Vance’s votes advanced the measure requested by the White House. Three Republicans – Sens. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) and Susan Collins (R-Maine) – joined all Democrats in opposition to the bill.

The union said they were working in courts in 10 different states across the country — California, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Ohio, Texas, Utah and Virginia.

We’ve noted before that today’s Democrats are operating with a mental deficit. A new poll further confirms they are a broken people. While it’s good for a cheap laugh, because they are often smug, condescending and hateful to those who disagree with them, their fragile psychological state poses a threat to the republic. A Rasmussen poll released Monday found that 60% of Democratic voters still believe “the Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government to win the 2016 election.” As disturbing as that is, 69% of those who self-identify as “liberals” believe Donald Trump conspired with Moscow to beat Hillary Clinton.
