Notes for Trying to Spin Spirit Airlines Comments

My colleague Ward Clark reported earlier on Saturday on how Spirit Airlines had finally gone under, after being in financial trouble for years. But as his story noted, one of the big things that may have contributed to their demise was that the Biden administration moved to block a merger with JetBlue that might have helped both companies: As Ward also wrote, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) was the brainchild of Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), who celebrated the blocking of the merger in 2024 as a "Biden win for flyers."

Ron DeSantis brands NYC mayor Zohran Mamdani

‘realtor of the year’ for driving
taxpayers to Florida 3 replies
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis mockingly branded Zohran Mamdani one of his “realtors of the year” – predicting that New York City’s socialist mayor will continue to drive taxpayers out of New York City and down to the Sunshine State.
DeSantis unleashed the scathing quips in a fireside chat on Monday at the 2026 Milken Institute Global Conference here. In a wide-ranging interview, the former 2024 GOP presidential candidate blasted soaring taxes and runaway spending in big cities like New York, Chicago and California.
“I don’t think it’s good that, like, one guy gets elected mayor and then people feel like they have to flee the city,” DeSantis told me, referring to Mamdani.
Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) is already in a precarious position when it comes to keeping his seat in the upcoming midterm elections. His relationship with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) might make things even worse.
Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings revealed that the SPLC contributed over $700,000 to his campaign during the 2020 race, according to Fox News. Oddly enough, this places Ossoff in the same category as the Ku Klux Klan and other white supremacist groups whose leaders have received oodles of cash from the organization.
Ossoff and the SPLC have a longstanding relationship.
The government of Fujairah, one of the seven emirates of the UAE, stated Monday that an Iranian drone strike had led to a significant fire in a significant oil industrial area.
"Competent authorities in the Emirate of Fujairah confirmed a large fire in the Fujairah Petroleum Industries (FOIZ) area, caused by a drone strike originating from Iran," read a statement from the Fujairah Media Office. "Fujairah Civil Defense teams immediately responded to the incident and are continuing their efforts to control it."In a second statement, the Fujairah government confirmed that "three Indian nationals sustained moderate injuries and have been transferred to the hospital to receive the necessary treatment."
As we reported, President Donald Trump imposed a blockade on shipping in and out of Iranian ports. It's put a chokehold on their shipping and the regime's economy. It's obviously been making them very nervous, which is why they put out a new offer to Trump. According to reports, there does appear to be some movement, which would indicate the blockade is working.
The problem? You don't get to the important part — the nuclear part — until you've already pulled back and stopped the war. The second stage is where they would appear to potentially give up the uranium.

Rudy Giuliani being in ‘the grave’

Jimmy Kimmel joked about Rudy Giuliani rising from “the grave” in a monologue just days before the former New York City mayor was rushed to the hospital in critical condition.
“So last night, America’s mayor, Rudy Giuliani, rose from the grave to weigh in on the ongoing drama involving me,” Kimmel said in a monologue on Tuesday, referencing his ill-timed joke about first lady Melania Trump looking like an “expectant widow” days before the President Trump assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. During “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” Kimmel played a clip of Giuliani, 81, remarking on his podcast that the embattled talk show host is —

Trump Torches 'Human Garbage' Democrats

for Their Desperate Midterm Election Interference Plot 5 replies
President Trump unleashed a fiery but mostly peaceful attack on Democrats Sunday evening, branding them “human garbage” for their latest desperate scheme to meddle in the upcoming midterms.
Trump, in a post on his Truth Social media platform, tore into Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Barack Obama’s former Attorney General Eric Holder after the latter was added to a highly partisan, deceptively named “voter integrity” task force.
Holder, of course, has been a driving force behind the Democrat party's obsession with rigging the electoral map through his and Obama's “Redistricting U.” operation since 2016.
"So ironic that Cryin’ Chuck Schumer and the Democrats are hiring SLEAZEBAGS —

including ‘Son of Sam’ and John Lennon assassin 8 replies
Some of the most infamous killers in history, including John Lennon assassin Mark David Chapman and “Son of Sam” serial murderer David Berkowitz, could soon be freed if Albany passes a pair of woke parole bills, critics warn.
The Elder Parole bill would let violent criminals dodge their minimum sentences, regardless of how heinous their crimes, and be granted early parole hearings after they’ve turned 55 and served 15 years of their sentences.
A second lefty measure, the Fair and Timely Parole bill, would require the state parole board to release convicts regardless of the severity of their crimes unless they are a “current” danger to the public
What if social media were treated like tobacco?
It might sound like a fantasy, but it’s closer to reality than you might think. Last year, Australia became the first country to ban social media for minors. The law passed the Australian parliament by an overwhelming margin and was wildly popular among Australian adults.
Taking a cue, the European Union released an app enabling age verification on social platforms, while a handful of European nations are mulling Australia-style bans. The Canadian government is “very seriously” considering mandatory age limits, while even here in America, the Massachusetts state house recently voted to ban social media for children under 14.
The state of Alabama is set to begin a special session on Monday that would enable legislators to draw a new map that further favors Republicans after the Supreme Court ruling on the Voting Rights Act on Thursday. Alabama’s Governor Kay Ivey called the special session to look into possibilities of expanding the GOP majority in the state. Proposals have circulated online which include both a one and two seat pick up for Republicans ahead of the vital midterm elections in November.
Critics often frame Iranian politics as a struggle between moderates and hardliners, but this distinction has repeatedly proven disastrously misleading. Different styles may appear, but the overarching objective remains the same: preserving the Islamist regime of Iran to continue jihad (holy war).
Softer rhetoric has emerged when the regime needed economic rescue or a diplomatic opening. Once the pressure recedes, the underlying strategic behavior remains unchanged.
In many ways, so-called "moderates" have historically served as the most effective guardians of the system: they are able to secure concessions from the outside world while preserving the internal order.
President Donald Trump announced that roughly 300,000 illegal aliens in the United States have been removed from Social Security rolls, and added that 100,000 have been removed from Medicare.
While speaking at The Villages in Florida, Trump highlighted policies geared towards seniors such as No Tax on Social Security. Trump also spoke about the One Big, Beautiful Bill and how it was “the largest tax cut in American history,” adding that “as a result, more than 51 million American seniors now pay a federal tax rate of zero.”
“Together with the Republicans in Congress, we’ve removed nearly 300,000 illegal aliens from the Social Security roll,” Trump said.

At least 12 people were hospitalized after a shooting at an event full of young adults near Lake Arcadia in Oklahoma City on Sunday night, according to reports.
Police swarmed the lake in Edmond around 9 p.m. after multiple 911 calls reported a shooting, Edmond Police officials said in a press conference at the scene.
The gunfire erupted at a large “Sunday Funday” party where many young adults were in attendance, News on 6 reported. “This is obviously a very terrifying situation and we understand the concern from the public and those involved and we are working extremely hard to find the suspects,” Edmond police spokesperson Emily Ward said.
President Donald Trump's unscheduled visit to a Florida dentist on Saturday has reignited speculation among medical professionals and critics about the 79-year-old's health, with cardiologist and CNN commentator Dr. Jonathan Reiner publicly questioning on social media why the appointment took place outside the White House's on-site dental facility.
The White House said the appointment was scheduled and routine, telling the press pool Trump had "a scheduled dental appointment at his local dentist in Florida." But the visit, which was not on the president's public schedule, has drawn questions from doctors, journalists, and political commentators on social media
A federal judge on Monday decried the prison treatment of President Donald Trump's alleged would-be assassin, and apologized to him for restrictive confinement imposed by jail staff…The judge said even Jan. 6 defendants were only house in a Correctional Treatment Facility (CTF), a less restrictive form of prison housing. "Pardons may erase convictions, but they don’t erase history," he said. "They were hanging gallows outside."

Police in South Africa shot and airlifted a crocodile suspected of consuming a 59-year-old businessman who was swept into floodwaters, authorities said.
When the reptile was sliced open on the ground, human remains believed to be those of Gabriel Batista were recovered, along with his ring and six other pairs of shoes that may belong to additional victims. Batista reportedly attempted to drive across a flooded bridge on Monday to reach his hotel and bar when his vehicle was swept away. He was carried down the river where crocodiles were present. It remains unclear whether he drowned before being eaten, as reported by Collin Rugg on X.
A taxpayer-funded Texas waterpark is getting splash-back for a “Muslims only” event next month after a local Islamic group rented out the facility.
A flier for the DFW Epic Eid event on June 1 noted three times that attendance was strictly for Muslims — and modest swimsuits are required.
“Seems like a civil rights violation,” one outraged commenter said.
“Should we expect a ‘Christians Only’ day?” another commenter asked.
Radio host Dana Loesch asked, “How is a taxpayer-funded, city-owned entity allowed to discriminate against non-Muslims at a public water park?” After the backlash, the organizer of the event, Aminah Knight, told The Post that she is backtracking on how
Dashboard camera video captured a United Airlines flight striking a Baltimore bakery truck on the New Jersey Turnpike on Sunday afternoon as the airplane was preparing to land at Newark Liberty International Airport.
Chuck Paterakis, senior vice president of transportation and logistics and co-principal at Baltimore-based H&S Bakery, told CBS News Baltimore that the driver was traveling to a Schmidt bakery depot in Newark and was about to exit the highway when the truck was hit.
Host Jake Tapper said, “You are a progressive icon. But now you are expressing some reservations about where the progressive movement has gone. Tell us more.”
Frank said, “Yeah, I, you know, I’ve been trying to decide, by the way, personally, whether it’s better to be an icon or an emoji. I haven’t decided that yet. But then, as far as that is concerned, it’s precisely because I have been on the left and I’ve undertaken this. I think we’re in a situation where the mainstream, to my disappointment, for many years ignored inequality, and many of us could forget inequality on the Democratic agenda. But the problem was,
New Yorkers, you’ve been slacking — so the mayor wants to organize you.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani isn’t happy that only 400 people showed up to last year’s Rent Guidelines Board hearings.
In response, last Wednesday, he launched Organize NYC, a supposed volunteer effort to have New Yorkers participate in local government.Taken straight from the Democratic Socialists of America’s community-organizing playbook, Mamdani is calling it “a long-term initiative to bring mass public participation into the work of governing.”
First stop: the RGB. The body with power to set rent adjustments for the city’s 1 million rent-stabilized units will hold four public hearings in June before voting on increases at its June 25 meeting.
The Real Reason Why Barack Obama Condemned

the Supreme Court’s Racial Redistricting Ruling 11 replies
Barack Obama is a real piece of work. Seriously, he has no shame.
One week after the former president successfully gaslit a small majority of Virginians into voting for a redistricting initiative that got rid of the state’s two majority-minority congressional districts, he has the gall to condemn the Supreme Court’s ruling against the practice of redistricting along racial lines.
He doesn’t really care about giving black voters better representation—he cares about the Democrats’ grasp for raw, naked political power, by any means necessary.
While the Constitution generally prohibits sorting citizens based on race, lower courts have long interpreted the Voting Rights Act of 1965 as effectively mandating redistricting along racial lines.
The Democrats May Not Survive Callais Ruling
11 replies
If the title of this column seems to exaggerate the potential impact of last week’s Supreme Court ruling in Louisiana v. Callais, it’s probably because most political pundits have focused on its effect below the Mason-Dixon Line. But the majority-minority congressional districts that will need to be altered pursuant to the Court’s ruling are far more pervasive than most realize. Ballotpedia, using data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2024 American Community Survey, estimates that these racially gerrymandered districts account for 148 seats in the House of Representatives. This is about one third of the House’s 435 districts.

Barack Obama has offered a rare and candid glimpse into his marriage - and it turns out Donald Trump is causing trouble at home. The former President, 64, admitted in an interview that Michelle wants him to step back from public life so the couple can enjoy their later years together. The problem? He keeps getting pulled back into the politics of the day. The former commander-in-chief said Trump's return to the White House is the reason he cannot simply walk away, and that his inability to do so has become a source of friction at home. 'It does create genuine
