Iran's Regime: 'No Choice but to Build
the Nuclear Bomb'
Posted By: FlyRight, 7/4/2026 6:18:56 AM
Iran saw Trump's turn-around on permission to have ballistic missiles and... must have thought, "Why not nuclear weapons too?" The goal seems to be to outlast the current US administration and then openly march toward nuclear bombs. One look at Libya and Ukraine, which gave up their nuclear weapons with catastrophic results, and then at North Korea, which did not, tells the regime everything it needs to know. A nuclear deterrent is the ultimate insurance for survival -- and expansion. This critical moment is not helped by wishful thinking. Flawed agreements, or even ones that look firm, will simply wait until the US has turned its attention somewhere else.

Recently, we’ve had a lot of discussion about racial relations, and the consensus from left to right seems constant and uniform that they’re getting much worse.
There were two or three iconic events this last week that emphasized that pessimism. One was the Juneteenth celebration in Chicago, which commemorated the official end of slavery in the 1860s and is now our newest national holiday.
It ended up with 39 people wounded, seven dead, semiautomatic gunfire. It was almost like a war zone. The mayor of Chicago, Mayor [Brandon] Johnson, did not comment on what was the cause of this or the pathologies that would lead people to slaughter.
President Trump warned Friday that communism poses a “mortal threat” to the country during a speech at Mount Rushmore on the eve of America’s 250th birthday.
“As we approach this magnificent anniversary, we see our American identity under a renewed attack,” Trump said in his remarks in South Dakota.
“A generation after we fought and won the Cold War against the menace of communism, there is now a resurgence of the communist menace in our land, including from newcomers to our country who embrace ideas totally opposed to our way of life and our great success,” the president continued.

This critical moment is not helped by wishful thinking. Flawed agreements, or even ones that look firm, will simply wait until the US has turned its attention somewhere else.
In this year that we celebrate 250 years since the Declaration of Independence—and the ensuing U.S. Constitution and unprecedented national prosperity—it is vital that Americans understand the evil roots of the communist movement that is seeking to supplant our nation’s birthright of liberty.
The biblical account of Cain and Abel in Genesis 4 provides a profound archetype for the destructive power of envy—the emotional and spiritual engine behind revolutionary ideologies. The biblical warning remains as relevant in 2026 as it was in the beginning: rule over the sin crouching at the door, or it will rule over you.
The Trump administration is set to cut subsidies for new solar and wind power projects on Saturday. Estimates suggest the subsidies have cost taxpayers more than $141 billion over the past 16 years, more than any other energy source.
The Working Families Tax Cuts, a signature piece of President Trump's tax legislation signed a year ago, set Saturday as the deadline for federal tax credit subsidies on any new solar or wind projects not currently under construction.
U.S. Department of Energy Secretary Chris Wright touted the subsidy deadline and criticized solar and wind energy projects in a video posted to social media Thursday.
There are a couple of more intense columns that I had planned on writing, but now that we are this close to the big America 250 party I'm overwhelmed by the mood to churn out "Yay USA!" content. I am forever grateful that I write for a company and an audience that's perfectly OK with that. Let's clear up the headline first. People who read everything literally are going to struggle with it, of course. I'm obviously alluding to the lack of air conditioning back in the Old World.
President Trump brushed off questions about the money he’s made while in office, saying his sons run his businesses and that he didn’t know about the lucrative crypto investments that netted him over a billion dollars.
“I’ve always made money,” he told CNBC, pointing to his past career. “I’m a business person. I’m a really good business person. I made money. I made a tremendous amount of money.”
Others invest his income, and he doesn’t know who they are, he noted. “I let people invest it. I don’t even speak to – I don’t even know who they are,” he said. “My son Eric handles it.

On Sunday, Wesley Memorial Methodist Church in High Point, North Carolina, could have become a part of an expanding group: churches targeted for violent attack, vandalism and protests. Thanks to an observant and quick-thinking individual and an off-duty cop, this attack was thwarted.
What in the world?! What mayhem did Milliken have planned? Was he targeting someone specific or did he just want to cause as much destruction as possible? From what was found on him after the arrest (see below), that last inquiry is a good supposition.
A little over a week ago, several Antifa terrorists were sentenced to a collective 450 years in prison. One of them, the convicted ringleader of the 2025 ambush of an ICE detention facility that saw a law enforcement officer get shot, received a century behind bars. The shortest sentence was 30 years. Antifa and their Leftist allies in the Democratic Party were not happy about these sentences. They really believed they were above the law, and are threatening the federal judges who put their comrades behind bars.
More Antifa terrorists were sentenced today. Andy Ngo,
Two SCOTUS Wins For Gun Rights, But Questions

Remain About The ‘History And Tradition’ Test 2 replies
It’s been a good couple of weeks at the Supreme Court for gun-rights advocates. In United States v. Hemani, a unanimous Court held that the Federal government may not disarm habitual drug users, while in Wolford v. Lopez, the Court ruled 6-3 that a Hawaii law which required gun-owners to seek express authorization from property owners before carrying handguns on private property open to the public was similarly unconstitutional under the Second Amendment.
While gun owners will no doubt welcome these decisions, court-watchers, constitutional scholars, and lower-court judges seeking clarification on the Court’s “history and tradition” test for firearm regulations may be left feeling disappointed.
In many areas of constitutional law,

era of ‘climate stupidity’ is done
and declares victory 11 replies
American climatologist Dr. Judith Curry on Tuesday announced that she would no longer maintain her influential blog, “Climate Etc.”
“It’s time to declare victory against climate stupidity and move on,” said in her final post. The reelection of President Donald Trump came with an overall shift in the political landscape regarding climate and energy issues. Since then, major media outlets shut down their climate desks, corporations are easing back on emission-reduction targets, and polls consistently show the public rates climate change low on their list of priorities.
Some figures like Curry who disputed the “climate crisis” narrative — often in the face of vitriol from those who support it —

The United States and Iran will reportedly "stand down for now” after a weekend of military skirmishes in the Strait of Hormuz, and both sides will try to reboot peace talks in Qatar this week.
Officials told multiple news outlets, including Axios, CNN and Fox News, that there was an easing of tensions after several days of exchanging fire near the Strait.
“Technical talks are slated to continue on all areas of the MOU. Both sides will stand down for now and vessels can move freely," the White House told Fox News.
Axios reported that the two sides will resume talks in Doha on Tuesday.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani delivered a stinging rebuke of the Trump administration in a speech marking America's 250th birthday.
The mayor also spoke of the importance of immigrants, and discussed American exceptional.
He was surrounded by recently naturalized citizens and sat behind the George Washington desk at City Hall. Mamdani himself is also a naturalized citizen, and the topic is important to him personally. He arrived in the U.S. from Uganda
Sen. Mitch McConnell remains hospitalized, his office said in a statement Thursday — without offering details about a recent medical episode that has renewed concern about the health of the former Republican majority leader.
McConnell “continues his recovery in the hospital” and “continues to improve,” his office said. “Senator McConnell appreciates the outpouring of support he’s receiving while he continues his recovery in the hospital,” the statement said. “The Senator continues to improve, and is working closely with his staff on Kentucky and Senate matters while the Senate is out of session.”
The statement did not explain why he was hospitalized last month.
A Somalian flag that was raised outside of Buffalo’s City Hall to commemorate Somali Independence Day was stolen in an overnight heist, the city’s leftist mayor decried.
“The City of Buffalo’s flagpole in Niagara Square sustained damage after unknown vandals broke the access panel, cut the cable, and removed the Somali flag during the overnight hours of Wednesday, July 1,” Mayor Sean Ryan wrote on Facebook.
Ryan said the Buffalo Police Department was investigating the alleged vandalism after the city approved non-profit HEAL International to raise the white star, blue flag on July 1.
“The flag had been raised by an organization called Heal International in honor of Somalian Independence Day.
Unprecedented Heat Wave?

More ignorance from the New York Times: “Without Climate Change, U.S. Heat Wave Called ‘Virtually Impossible.”
Heat and humidity as severe, prolonged and far-reaching as this week’s would have been “virtually impossible” in the Northeast and eastern Canada before humans began warming the planet, a team of scientists said on Friday.
***
To estimate how much climate change increased the likelihood of this week’s sweltering conditions, the scientists analyzed records of a measurement of heat stress called “wet bulb globe temperature,” a figure that accounts for humidity, wind and direct sunlight. Given that the heat wave is still unfolding, the researchers combined weather observations and forecast data.
Of course they did.
Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico was caught on video describing a “Christofascism movement” as he criticized legislation restricting gender-affirming care for transgender minors and the state’s abortion law.
During an appearance on Texas Impact’s Weekly Witness, Talarico argued that legislation restricting gender-affirming care for transgender minors and Texas’s abortion ban stemmed from what he called a “Christofascism movement.” (X) “You saw it in the anti-LGBTQ legislation, including the bill that would have denied gender-affirming health care to trans children,” Talarico said. “And then, of course, famously, infamously, we saw it last session with the most extreme abortion ban in the country. All of these ideologies stem from this Christofascism movement.”
Can Europe Be Saved?

As a result of third-world migration–some say, invasion–much of Western Europe is no longer recognizable. Mass third-world immigration is unpopular nearly everywhere, but European elites, being unhappy with their populaces, seem determined to replace them.
Campaigners including Eva Vlaardingerbroek and Martin Sellner have proposed the Save Europe Act, which you can read about here. The proposal strikes me as entirely reasonable. It petitions the European Union to exercise its right of initiative to propose legislation that would declare a moratorium on non-European, non-Western immigration; fundamentally reform EU migration and asylum systems; ensure and accelerate the return of illegal migrants; establish an EU-wide framework to incentivize voluntary remigration; and remove
As New York baked under another summer heat wave, parts of the Riverdale neighborhood in the Bronx, home to a large Jewish community, lost power after Con Edison shut off electricity to protect its equipment.
Con Edison announced the outages Thursday, saying it temporarily cut power to some customers in Riverdale to reduce strain on the electrical grid and speed up service restoration. The utility directed affected residents to report outages and seek relief at city cooling centers. The outages left parts of Riverdale sweating without air conditioning during a dangerous citywide heat wave. The timing also puts intense pressure on Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
The two teen suspects wanted in the murder of Penn State student Billy Schmidt have been taken into custody.
22-year-old Billy Schmidt was studying journalism at Penn State and was set to graduate this December.
Schmidt was killed last month as he was returning home from an NBA Finals watch party at a bar when the two armed suspects fatally shot him.
The suspects, identified as 16-year-old Azzubair Outen-Fleming and Kaiseem Smith, 16, shot Schmidt in the chest in an attempted robbery ambush.
Azzubair Outen-Fleming was arrested in Colorado on Friday.
Kaiseem Smith turned himself in to the Philadelphia police.
Despite claiming to be the most bipartisan member of Congress, Rep. Susie Lee (D-NV) said in June that U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth made her want to“beat the sheet*out of him.” “I do want to be bipartisan. I want to work across the aisle. That’s the only way to get things done,” the lawmaker, who is seeking reelection, told an audience at the Sun City Liberal Club in Las Vegas, Fox News reported Friday.
“Another issue, Hegseth comes in front of my committee. Now listen, it’s so easy. Like, it’s just so easy. Like, you just wanna to beat the sheet* out of him,” she said
Local law enforcement made a stunning 102 radio calls about then candidate Donald Trump’s would-be assassin lurking and taking his firing position at the 2024 Butler, Pennsylvania rally that almost took the president’s life — but the U.S. Secret Service didn’t hear a single one of them.
On top of that, when agents at a command center finally got word Thomas Crooks had taken a firing position on top of a roof on the grounds, a Secret Service staffer resorted to searching Google for its location only 155 yards away, instead of just asking local authorities where that was.
As the staffer searched, shots rang out and a bullet grazed Trump’s ear,
New York City’s Communist Twelver Shi’ite Mayor Zohran Mamdani has bestowed upon a waiting world his speech commemorating America’s 250th anniversary, and it is just as small, petty, grievance-laden, fantasy-based, and angry as you’d expect a speech from a man who hates America to be.
The visual effect was even worse, as Mamdani delivered the speech while seated at a desk that seemed to be turned the wrong way around, while surrounded by a social studies-book array of glum-looking, unsmiling, unhappy people, all black and brown and hijabed and whatnot and all forlornly holding
As we move into this great weekend, a weekend that should be devoted to patriotic celebrations, fireworks, burgers on the grill and cold beers in the cooler, many of our major urban areas are instead having to worry about another wave of what's being euphemistically called "teen takeovers," or, in other words, riots, in which packs of feral youths invade the city streets, leaving destruction and mayhem in their wake.
The cities affected are making an effort now to head these events off with a combination of technology and curfews. Will it work? That remains to be seen.
