Why Any Deal with Iran Is a Mistake

Tehran sees diplomacy as a tactical weapon: a means to buy time, get intrusive foreign governments off their back, weaken international opposition, divide Western allies, and secure economic relief -- all while continuing its long-term strategic objectives as fast as the circumstances after President Donald J.

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich is offering a six-point plan for President Donald Trump and his Republican Party to win the midterms in November, after the president's big victories Tuesday night.
Gingrich, as a guest Wednesday on the John Solomon Reports" podcast, urged Trump to work on lowering gas prices before Labor Day this September, arguing it's a critical affordability point if the president wants his candidates to do well in November.
(Snip) Gingrich also pushed the White House to compile and promote a list of the "craziest things" that Democrats have done amid the Trump administration, including everything that its leaders have said to try to ensure

President Trump deserves the gratitude of all American patriots. He has singlehandedly stopped the slide towards chaos that Obama and Biden worked so hard to achieve; he was kneecapped in his first administration by disloyal, treasonous bureaucrats and Democrat Party extremists bent on destroying what generations of Americans have built.
Like any other leader, the president is not all-knowing and all-seeing. While most of his supporters enjoy his humor and his readiness to boldly confront our enemies, foreign and domestic, there are times when somebody must speak bluntly to him when he is about to slip on a banana peel. This is one of those times.
Americans across the political spectrum were stunned by Donald Trump’s upset victory in 2016. Pundits, pollsters, and political insiders had largely failed to account for a powerful bloc of supporters who either stayed quiet about their views or were underestimated entirely — the “silent Trump voter.”
Now, a decade later, some are wondering whether that same phenomenon might be happening in the Los Angeles mayoral race.Is there such a thing as the “silent Spencer Pratt voter”?
The growing excitement and online buzz surrounding the former reality-TV star’s campaign has sparked national headlines in the weeks since he turned a candidate debate with Mayor Karen Bass and city council member Nithya Raman
President Donald Trump keeps delivering the border-security promise that helped return him to the White House.
However, when the previous occupant of the Oval Office held the door open for millions, it created several problems.
One of them is where to put 'em?
The DHS wants more detention space because illegal immigrants can't be processed, held, and quickly removed without beds, staff, transportation, and secure facilities. Transforming empty warehouses into detention centers sounds efficient on paper, especially after years of Biden-era border chaos. Then the plan reaches a small town with a water system, sewer capacity, and residents who still expect the faucet to work when they turn the knob.
Real Time with Bill Maehr probably upset liberals over the weekend, with this episode where he went on a fierce attack against Democrats for their usual nonsense: their increasingly extreme stance on Jewish people and Israel. Enough with the ‘you can be critical of Israel and not be antisemitic’—these people are shouting Hamas war cries(Snip)
Israel is the only functioning democracy in the Middle East and a top ally. The reasons for nixing aid and military shipments are illegitimate and frankly, silly talk, with the latest entrants to this position, namely many former Obama officials, merely reacting to their insane activist base that has become totally subservient to terrorist
On May 5, Megyn Kelly said something revealing during an appearance on Next Up with Mark Halperin, while defending Tucker Carlson’s recent posture toward Islam and criticism of Israel.
“I’ve noticed just since I’ve gotten sort of more clear-eyed on Israel that a lot of the anti-Muslim rhetoric that’s put out there originates with people who are very, very pro-Israel who kind of need us to demonize them (Muslims). (Snip)
Megyn, your statement deserves an answer because there is a limit to how much you can gaslight those who have suffered under Islam and Sharia in the service of your anti-Israel rhetoric. And yours truly has reached her limit with
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Monday called some of the principal Democrats who have recently been inciting their mindless minions to violence against President Donald Trump and his supporters, and it was a beautiful thing to see. But Leavitt likely knows that the hate-filled left is unlikely to be chastened, and even less likely to change its ways. For leftists, political power is their religion. Murdering their foes in pursuit of that power is no sin; it’s more like a sacrament.
(Snip) "And so many mentally perturbed individuals are led to believe these words are true, and then are inspired to act on it.”
The Supreme Court is under attack. It has been under attack for years, almost exclusively from the left. And by “under attack,” I don’t mean the peaceful criticism. I mean everything from challenges to its legitimacy to outright ignoring its rulings to death threats against conservative justices.
This began years ago. Chief Justice John Roberts initially responded by trying to stay apolitical and by trying to ignore the criticism. When President Barack Obama called him out during his 2010 State of the Union address, Roberts called the stunt “very troubling.” In the last two decades, that has been the entire extent of his pushback against the left.
What Do Immigrants Owe Us?
3 replies
We keep hearing it, over and over again, about how we Americans are somehow morally obligated to aliens – illegal or otherwise. About how we Americans are obligated to allow them into our country without our permission, and once they’re here, to not only subsidize them but to validate the garbage cultures that they came from and now insist on replanting in our sacred soil. But there’s a question that we need to start asking, particularly Republican politicians, whenever the subject of immigration arises. (Snip)
No, when we’re talking about immigration, we need to ask a very simple question and demand an answer.

Trump Estrangement Syndrome Strikes

One of the most stunning and yet tediously repetitive features of America’s Donald Trump Experience is the expectation that President Donald Trump is going to become someone else.
People across the political spectrum seem permanently immune to the realization that the country has elected a man who says and does extraordinarily shocking things. With metronomic consistency, they exclaim, “Can you believe what he said? He’s just completely nuts! Where’s my 25th Amendment?”
(Snip)
Over the course of two terms, Trump has altered the course of U.S. history, diverting and even reversing leftist agendas that seemed hopelessly unstoppable.
Oh, Great, Peace in the Middle East Again

Well, it’s another glorious day, or something. President Donald Trump’s threats against the Islamic Republic of Iran have apparently worked, a “ceasefire” has been concluded, and as he did when he forced Israel to stop fighting Hamas when it had a chance to destroy the jihad terror group once and for all, Trump is once again hailing the dawn of peace in the Middle East: (Snip)
The Islamic Republic of Iran was likewise in a celebratory mood, and in its joyful exuberance, fired off a round or two of celebratory missiles and drones into Israel and the Sunni states that it has targeted since the beginning of this conflict.

Tom Morello, an activist and guitarist of Rage Against the Machine, announced Wednesday he organized a protest festival to take place at Merriweather Post Pavilion on Oct. 3. in Columbia, Maryland.
“The mantra of the show is a very clear one,” Morello told the Washington Post in an interview. “It is a show about peace, love, justice and music.”
Career anti-Trump agitator Bruce Springsteen will be there to add his crying left-wing protests ahead of the mid-terms.
So too fellow travelers Foo Fighters, Dave Matthews, Joan Baez, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, Jack Black and others will come together for Morello’s festival.
On Memorial Day, Minnesota Democrat officials, including Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, dumped the troops and headed to the eyesore known as ‘George Floyd Square’, an epicenter of the BLM riots, to groove along with the ‘Brass Resistance Band’ and a DJ in honor of the fallen violent criminal who had died of a drug overdose while resisting arrest.
“Today, we remember George Floyd,” Mayor Frey tweeted. “The weight of what happened is still with our city six years later – and the responsibility to keep moving forward together is too. I know we can keep building a Minneapolis that is safer, more accountable, and more worthy
Two Minnesota fraudsters allegedly swindled more than $21 million in funding earmarked for autism services through two bogus companies and then spent it lavishly on overseas property, officials said.
Shamso Ahmed Hassan, 55, and Hanaan Mursal Yusuf, 25, whose mugshots were released on Wednesday, made off like bandits by submitting millions of dollars in fake claims to Minnesota’s Early Intensive Development and Behavioral Intervention Program [EIDBI] between May 2020 and December 2024, authorities said.
The pair enrolled two companies co-owned by Hassan — Smart Therapy Center LLC and Star Autism Center LLC —
Democrats are shaking their heads in disbelief at the timing of Jill Biden’s memoir and her change in tone about Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance.
The party would rather talk about the high cost of living and increased gas prices under President Trump, Democrats told The Post, rather than relive the debate around Joe Biden’s cognitive health.
“We need this as much as we need a hole in the head,” Jim Manley, a Democratic strategist who worked in the Senate for years, said. Jill Biden’s confessional about her concerns over the former president’s health is dropping as the party fights to win control of Congress in November.
CBS News Editor-in-Chief continues draining the woke swamp at the long-compromised Sunday news program, 60 Minutes.
The Gateway Pundit has documented for years how ’60 Minutes’ repeatedly targeted conservatives and President Trump with one-sided hit pieces while giving Democrats and their allies soft-glove treatment.
The show’s credibility collapsed further after the disastrous Kamala Harris interview that triggered a major lawsuit and exposed its activist bent.
Bari Weiss, who famously walked away from The New York Times over its radical leftward lurch and cancel culture, is now applying the same standards at CBS.
Texas Democrat Senate Hopeful James Talarico

Refers to Women as ‘Neighbors with a Uterus’ 14 replies
Texas state Rep. James Talarico, the Democrat running against Republican state Attorney General Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate race, has referred to women as “neighbors with a uterus” on more than one occasion.
The Democrat used the expression while lamenting Roe v. Wade being overturned, which brought the issue of abortion back to the state level.
“Every one of our neighbors with a uterus became property of the state,” he claimed.
In another clip, the Democrat talks about how “neighbors with a uterus” should be able to “control their own body” – leftist code for murdering their unborn child without repercussions.
There is a bizarre controversy out of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, where a federal judge has been reprimanded for engaging in repeated, loud sexual encounters during office hours in chambers with a police officer. (snip) Ironically, among the clues about the judge’s identity, the order mentions that the judge attended the “victory party for a District Attorney” in 2024, the night before “the judge’s summer interns’ first day.” The Georgia primary was on May 21, 2024, and the date coincides with the victory party for Fani Willis,
We’re a long way out from 2028 — we’re not even through the midterms yet — but modern-day political campaigns are never-ending, and already pundits are speculating on who will succeed Donald Trump as president.On the GOP side, most of the money is on either Vice President JD Vance or Secretary of State Marco Rubio earning the nomination, with some conservatives dreaming of a joint ticket.
Over on Team Democrat, meanwhile, the field is unclear, mostly because it’s so bad. They seemingly have no Bill Clinton or Barack Obama to jump out of the woodwork and inspire the base. California Gov. Gavin Newsom arguably gets the most press,
A Virginia high school graduation descended into chaos when a spectator rushed the stage and attacked a student who was walking to receive his diploma.
Evan J. Williams Jr., 20, was arrested Thursday and charged with disorderly conduct and damage to private property in connection with the brawl that broke out during John Marshall High School’s graduation ceremony at Virginia Commonwealth University, according to police.
A 12-second viral video of the violence posted on Facebook shows the moment several attendees began to fight on the students’ special day in front of shocked family members just before 11 a.m. Wednesday at the school’s Siegel Center.

According to court records, I have two children. Because I’m so gosh-darn manly, both my children are boys. (‘Cause that’s how genetics works.) Therefore, I’ve never had to give my kids “the talk” — but I have plenty of friends and relatives with adolescent girls, so I know how “the talk” goes:
“Honey, sit down. It’s time you learned the truth. You have to be careful out there, because boys your age are only after… one thing. It’s all they care about!”
Yeah: That one thing is raising children.
It’s one of the strangest, most unexpected evolutions in modern politics. Almost no one saw it coming: Gen Z men and Gen Z women
CBS unexpectedly defended its decision to pull "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" off air, revealing in a statement Thursday that the show was losing approximately $40 million a year. (snip) the program was merely being replaced with two back-to-back episodes of Byron Allen’s “Comics Unleashed” instead.
Allen's program is a "time buy," meaning that Allen is paying CBS $15 million to rent the air time, but will keep all ad revenue for himself. (snip) “With this ‘time buy’ model, we have shifted an hour that was losing roughly $40 million annually to $15 million in profit — a $55 million swing.”

Congress after judge orders his name removed

President Trump declared Friday that he has “no interest in continuing” to oversee operations and renovations at the Kennedy Center – and will move to transfer those responsibilities to Congress – after a federal judge ordered his name to be removed from the performing arts venue.
District Judge Christopher Cooper ruled that within 14 days all physical signage bearing Trump’s name must be removed from the building and all references to a “Trump Kennedy Center” must be eliminated from official materials, in response to a lawsuit by Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), who is an ex-officio member of the institution’s board.
Comments:
Trump should have realized by now that the art of the deal does not apply when you're dealing with insane Muslims.
