Too Fun to Check: Belgians Blue Over Red-Card
Trump; Update
Posted By: Dreadnought, 7/6/2026 4:26:01 PM
Full disclosure: I have very little knowledge of the game of soccer, and only a mild jingoistic interest in it when Team USA wins in its international competitions. Until the past week, I couldn't tell a red card from a red wedding, except that the howls of fury for the former easily exceeded those of the latter. My biggest takeaway from futbol is that LeBron James learned his ref-manipulating flops from the best in the business. With all of that said, however, even I have caught a mild case of World Cup fever, as the American men's team has delivered a surprisingly dominant performance – so far.

Graham Platner, the scandal-plagued progressive military veteran, said Monday he is reflecting on the best path forward for his Maine Senate campaign after another allegation of sexual misconduct was raised against the troubled Democrat.
Platner’s announcement comes after he canceled several events over the July 4 weekend as rumors spread that a “very damaging allegation” would be coming out against the already troubled candidate.
On Monday, Politico reported on allegations made by Platner’s former girlfriend that he “forced
Now that the Democratic Socialists of America are sweeping into power and beginning to displace the Organized Crime Democrats as the key leaders of the Democratic Party, some elements of the Pravda Media are working hard to claim that the DSA is not filled with communists.
It's true that there are people who call themselves "socialists" who are not, at least precisely, communists. The DSA used to work hard to keep the communist revolutionaries out of the party. But first, that was decades ago, before the revolutionary communists swamped the people who liked the Nordic model of the 60s and 70s (which they gave up decades ago, denationalizing industries
Despite the severe weather delays, despite the Democrats being downers, the America 250 celebration for the Fourth of July was one heck of an event.
The threat of severe weather delayed it, and they even had to make people leave for their own safety. But, as we reported, President Donald Trump said they would make it, and they did, putting on an amazing celebration. “For 250 years, the United States of America has been the hope, the promise, the light, and the glory among all of the nations of the world, all over the world. They try and be like us. Nobody can be like us,”
Flames erupted on the Brooklyn Bridge as fireworks were being shot from it during Macy’s July 4 display over the East River.
Video shows a plume of smoke emerging from a flaming section of the bridge as fireworks soar and burst around it Saturday night. Two other sections also appeared to burn as the pyrotechnics were being shot from the span.
“At first I thought it was supposed to happen but then I was scared it would exploded. I thought the bridge was made of wood so I was scared,” said Nearing Khoula, 24, from France, who was watching the display from the Brooklyn waterfront.
“There were four
Speaking at Mount Rushmore on Friday to commemorate the 250th anniversary of our nation, President Donald Trump sounded the alarm: “As we approach this magnificent anniversary, we see our American identity under a renewed attack.” He observed that “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.”
There was no doubt whatsoever that what he was saying was true, and that thirty-five years after the end of the Cold War,
SAN ANTONIO, Texas — Thousands of patriotic San Antonians lined the downtown streets near the historic Alamo to witness the Stars & Stripes Independence Day Parade despite temperatures expected to near triple digits on Saturday. The parade featured traditional Fourth of July floats, Military Bands, and some Tex-Mex performances, adding to the patriotic displays.
Breitbart Texas attended the event promoted by the city as the Stars & Stripes on Houston Street Independence Day Parade aimed at celebrating America’s 250th birthday. The parade was launched in 2024 as a major Fourth of July Parade after an absence of more than a century.
New York's communist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, has regularly revealed himself to be a real piece of... work. He's abysmally ill-informed, and he appears to harbor a lot of hate for a country that took him in, making it something of a mystery as to why he left his wealthy family's expansive Uganda compound. Unless, of course, you assume that gaining control of one of America's largest cities was the goal all along.
Now, on Friday, the day before we celebrated 250 years of American liberty, Mayor Mamdani took the opportunity to trash America, and to add insult to injury, we see that the commie mayor did so from behind a desk
President Donald Trump ushered in the 250th anniversary of American independence on Friday with soaring rhetoric about American exceptionalism before veering into a darkly political speech with warnings about a sinister threat of communism that evoked one of the country's ugliest chapters.
"Communism is a mortal threat to American liberty," he said from Mount Rushmore. "It is the greatest threat to our country, including World War I, World War II, Pearl Harbor or even 9/11."//snip//Indeed, Trump's language evoked the Red Scare of the 1950s, when alleged communists
The America 250 event at Mount Rushmore had some weather delays in the program because there was a giant hailstorm. I'm not sure that's what they meant when they sing "Hail to the Chief."
But then it did finally clear up for President Donald Trump's arrival, and here are some of the highlights. Let's hear from our Mount Rushmore presidents. Check out this flyover of Mount Rushmore - Trump in the new Air Force One. Then he buzzed the folks at Mount Rushmore in Marine One, and they loved it. Trump spoke about what it means to be an American and the greatness of our country.
President Donald Trump rang in America's 250th birthday celebrations with a 28-minute speech at Mount Rushmore and a fireworks display that might have rivaled his words. "The American dream still lives, and the American flag still flies more proudly than ever before over the people who will not quit," Trump said at the end of his lengthy — albeit shorter than his usual hours-long — speech. "The nation that will not fail, the country that will not fall no matter how hard the enemy tries, we cannot be beaten."
As Trump spoke, across the world, Iranians buried Ayatollah Ali Khamenei at funeral ceremonies with calls for revenge on the U.S.
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

Elaine Chao, the spouse of Republican Senator Mitch McConnell, is said to have embarked on an official visit to China merely three days following her husband's cardiac arrest. The 73 year old Chao has been wed to the 84 year old Republican lawmaker since 1993. She held the position of transportation secretary during President Donald Trump's initial term. Images appearing in media outlets allegedly depict her in discussions with Chinese Vice President Han Zheng, occurring just 72 hours after McConnell was admitted to hospital. It comes as McConnell's staff issued an update on senator's condition after he was taken to
As the Nazis took over Germany, they were a minority party that no one really took all that seriously. Hitler was crazy, but his ramblings weren’t thought of by most Germans or the political establishment as foreshadowing. People today forget they were not a majority, as history tends to obscure reality for the sensational. Communists in Russia and China (or anywhere they destroyed, really) were a minority, too. But you should never underestimate the ability of a distinct minority to bring about massive devastation, as once radicals gain power they tend to wipe out their opposition and move quickly to consolidate control.
While most of us were focused on family and friends over Independence Day and the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, our heroes in the Fourth Estate found a more interesting subject. Hundreds of masked members of Patriot Front showed up to provide the dot from a laser pointer for the media to chase. According to the Telegraph channel allegedly operated by Patriot Front, some 400 members of the organization descended on Washington, D.C. to link the Trump administration to White supremacy.
Surprise! Late Hollywood icon Rob Reiner's final TV role is all about skewering President Donald Trump. The "When Harry Met Sally" director, who died in December, made an unannounced posthumous appearance in the July 3 episode of Larry David's history-themed HBO sketch comedy "Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness," which is produced by former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama. At the end of the episode, Reiner played George Washington in a sketch centered on roasting Trump without ever saying his name, and Trump's least favorite late-night comic, Jimmy Kimmel, even got involved. In the scene
Fourth of July descended into mayhem across Southern California as unruly crowds overwhelmed packed-out fireworks displays, looted stores, ignited fires and saw cops charge on horseback.
The worst unrest erupted in Newport Beach, where Independence Day revelers poured into Orange County, choking traffic and triggering a police response as disorder spread near the pier.
Authorities ultimately shut down businesses from the Newport Pier to Pacific Coast Highway as officers moved in to restore order.
Officers were swarmed by hundreds of people who hurled bottles and other debris at them before the crowd turned on one another and began fighting.

Congress, all Americans to address nearly
$40T national debt 18 replies
Former U.S. Comptroller General David Walker is joining the call for President Trump, Congress – and essentially all Americans – to reign in the national debt that is now nearing $40 trillion, saying its creating an inevitable collapse of the U.S. economy that will ultimately lead to a global depression.
"One of the things that we clearly have to have is we need a constitutional amendment, because only a constitutional amendment can bind the Congress to return to fiscal sanity and sustainability," Walker said last week on the Just the News, No Noise TV show.
On Saturday, Americans celebrated the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding. Shockingly, according to a detailed new report from the White House’s Domestic Policy Council, the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History (NMAH) did not.
The report, titled “Saving America’s Story: How Ideological Capture at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History Erases Our Heritage,” was released Saturday night during America 250 commemorations. It concludes the museum has been captured by “radical, activist ideology that is fundamentally opposed to telling the noble, honest story of the great country we know and love.”
Specifically, in regard to America’s 250th, the report stated:
In another case of federal bureaucrats challenging elected leaders, seven employees of the Environmental Protection Agency who signed onto a public letter opposing President Donald Trump were eventually ousted. Now they’re suing to get their jobs back.
The terminated employees are suing with the backing of the litigation group Democracy Forward. Democrat lawyer Marc Elias is chairman of the board for Democracy Forward, which has filed numerous lawsuits advocating for the federal bureaucracy against elected leaders. Elias is best known for election litigation for Democrats, and for his role in pushing the Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy theory.
A mad horde of teens pummeled a pair of South Carolina cops in a wild brawl after the officers tried to break up a dangerous Fourth of July celebration that included gunshots and fireworks launched at cars, police said.
The shocking attack unfolded when officers attempted to shut down an Independence Day celebration in the North Charleston nabe of Chicora-Cherokee around 8:30 p.m., the North Charleston Police Department said.
“We need some help,” North Charleston Police Chief Ron Camacho pleaded with the public. “We really do. We need some help from the community. Because stuff like this is getting dangerous.”
As we've been reporting, most Americans are all-in, celebrating and enjoying America 250. We recognize the great gift we have been given with this nation and the principles it espouses. But even as celebrations are ongoing, you see folks on the left going all-in to attack it because of their Trump hatred or their hatred of America in general. We saw the Mayor of New York City deliver an ugly speech, for example. That was taken down with pointed responses from people like Elon Musk and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. But if there was a real sign of how far the Democrats have gone off the leftist cliff,
A family paying the electric bill doesn't care how noble a subsidy sounds in Washington. They care whether the lights stay on, the furnace runs, the air conditioner works, and the bill leaves enough money for groceries.
President Donald Trump's tax law set July 4, 2026, as the deadline ending federal tax credit subsidies for new wind and solar projects not already under construction. U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright called the deadline the end of roughly 35 years of federal support for wind and solar, and he noted that in 2025 they comprised about 3% of total U.S. primary energy consumption. From Just the News:
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's speech for our nation's 250th birthday has gotten a lot of well-deserved criticism.
It was pretty awful on the whole. But there was one particular part on Friday that got a lot of attention, in which he lambasted America, attacked Elon Musk, and demonized Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The swipe against Musk was particularly nasty, saying children go hungry while the world's first trillionaire (Musk) "hungers for more."
In that you can see the evil of the radical left - to demonize the people who are actually achieving and whipping up envy and class warfare.
But Elon Musk responded,
