Last Friday, the world awoke to news that the long-simmering conflict between Israel and Iran had reignited with dangerous new intensity. Explosions rocked strategic sites inside Iran in what analysts believe was a calculated Israeli response to Tehran’s escalated proxy attacks across the region. This cycle of strike and counterstrike has destabilized oil markets, rattled global alliances, and raised the risk of wider war.

They say “five million people” took to the streets to protest “No Kings” last Saturday. Know how I know there are five million people? Because the public relations firm hired by organizers – fully funded by spoiled, entitled, white billionaires – put out a press release saying so. That’s how I know. Democrats simply declare something and no judgement is cast in their direction. Weird, right? Actually, no – it's not weird at all, it’s how media bias works now. 

After Israel took out at least two of Iran's top nuclear weapons scientists (and promised to kill more,) my High School Fight Song came to mind. After a touchdown, we sang, "Hit 'em hard and hit 'em again. Show 'em now we're gonna win." That's precisely what Israel's done over several days against its mortal enemy that's threatened to exterminate them for decades.

I can’t ascribe a reason why these people – not just in America, but around the world – seem to be hype-men for the Mullahs of Iran, but my suspicion runs the gambit. Some, I’m sure, do it out of what they view as "principle," but what those principles are will forever remain a mystery. There has to be a serious price for that – but thanks to Democrats, they haven’t paid much of one. Don't forget, we have the biggest stick, and I’m not talking about nuclear.

The entire career of race-baiter Al Sharpton was founded on falsehoods about the Tawana Brawley scam. Nearly everything the left told us about the Trayvon Martin fight was false. The "hands up, don't shoot" Ferguson fable and the Covington Kids myth were quickly exposed. The Duke Lacrosse and Jussie Smollett melodramas were laughable. Abrego Garcia became a "Maryland Man": a supposed poor victim of Trump overreach.

California has long prided itself on being a symbol of progressive governance, a supposed beacon of tolerance, opportunity and inclusivity. But behind the glittering curtain of Hollywood dreams and Silicon Valley innovation lies a troubling reality -- a self-inflicted crisis stemming from policies that defy economic logic and common sense. As California grapples with an unprecedented immigration surge, ballooning homelessness and mass exodus of residents and businesses, the question arises: Should the federal government intervene?

Bass and Newsom also seem to think that the president should not be able to send the National Guard to Los Angeles when the governor has not requested it. Newsom has just filed suit against President Trump over the issue. But he and the mayor are, unfortunately for them, on the wrong side of that question, too. Yes, usually when a president sends the National Guard, it is at the request of a state's governor. But not always.

It’s time to accept that some people simply cannot be reached – they're like smelly, woke National Democrats who stand for the rights a criminals who are in our country illegally — or wait, like California leftists who cannot be reasoned with. They’re AOC, Chuck Schumer and Gavin Newsome Democrats. The rest of us don’t necessarily have to pay attention to them, but we do need to be informed about their activities that enable lawbreaking, or are anti-American.

The White House on Friday cited the May jobs report as evidence that the labor market's robust, while Congressional Democrats called it weak. While labor conditions are softening, a deep dive into the report shows any weakness started long before the Trump administration, which is making undeniable progress reprivatizing the economy. The number of jobs in the federal government has now fallen every month this year, bringing the number of federal payrolls down to the lowest level since November 2023.

Some 500,000 illegal entrants are believed to have criminal records – a number greater than the population of Oakland, California. New reports relate almost daily that another illegal alien has murdered, raped, or assaulted an American Citizen. Yet Democrats & The Left often champion violent illegal alien criminals facing deportation. Thousands of these unknown criminals are deadly land mines waiting to explode.

It's been six months since their disastrous 2024 Election performance, and Democrats are “still searching for the path forward” wrote The New York Times last week. In order to help them fix this difficult problem, Democrats recently hired some (very) expensive consultants – and one decided to ask voters what animal they'd assign to each party. Republicans were “apex predators... lions, tigers & sharks.” Democrats were called “tortoises, slugs & sloths.”

In one of the delicious ironies of history, after the 2012 Presidential Election the GOP set out to broaden its appeal to Minorities & Young Voters, it ignored the advice of its top party officials, and embraced a candidate that many insiders rejected. Now, a fascinating new 2024 Election Analysis puts 2024 in the context of data from yhe 2012, 2016 and 2020 Elections to see which direction each party is moving with individual groups of voters. Spoiler alert – it's a feel-good story for Republicans.

Last week, in what is being called the largest-ever ICE enforcement operation, nearly 1,500 illegal foreign nationals were arrested—most of them hiding in so-called “sanctuary” jurisdictions. That’s not just a number. That’s a blunt warning: there are thousands more just like them—living, working, and perhaps plotting among us, thanks to open-border ideologues and their enablers in blue-state leadership.

There's danger in Making America Great Again with Executive Orders, but is there any other way to do it? I love most of what President Trump is doing – in fact, it’s kind of what I’ve always dreamed of; Make a list of what’s been screwed up by Democrats and The Left, check them off as they get solved, and suddenly America would be great again. But if Republicans want to "Keep America Great," they’d better start passing his Exec. Orders into law.

There was hope for responsible governance by the Palestinian Authority (PA), but that hope has been repeatedly dashed and finally extinguished on October 7, 2023. The coordinated horrific attack by Hamas militants left hundreds dead and many held hostage. Israel’s response has been strong and unrelenting, but the release of hostages and the total defeat of Hamas remain elusive.

A few Democrat officeholders, activists, and pundits are finally coming to their senses that their brand is toxic to a majority of the American people. The Biden administration killed what was left of it in a number of ways. First, it serially lied to Americans about the cognitive decline and cancerous condition of President Joe Biden – both while in and after office. Only when caught did the complicit media fess up. 

SERIOUSLY: Is there a place in the country better off because Democrats have control over the Local or State Government? I mean, if getting pregnant so you can have an abortion is your hobby, Chicago or Boston are OK – but not if you don't want to be robbed or shot. And if you want to get your kid an education, forget about it. There's nothing Democrats can’t ruin – and there's nothing even potentially good they don't ruin.

President Trump’s move to put the screws to Harvard’s federal funding isn’t just solid policy, it’s moral clarity. And, it’s Long-Overdue Accountability. This past week Trump ratcheted up the pressure, citing five damning reasons drawn directly from Harvard’s own Internal Investigation – anti-Semitic harassment was not only tolerated, but systemically swept under the rug. As bad as that was, it’s just the start.

As the left-wing corporate media engages in Trump Derangement Syndrome over poll numbers, which are all over the place, they never mention the fact that no matter how bad any numbers they find or manufacture about Donald Trump, they will never be as bad as the numbers for Democrats. Any Democrat. They are about as popular with the American people as an infected toe. Which would you rather have, an infected toe or a flaming case of Pelosi? 

One reason the public turned on The Looney Left's DEI (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion) indoctrination efforts was its insistence that some 70% of the country was stereotyped as "victimizers" – by virtue of their skin color. Absurd. The other "diverse" 30%, by contrast, were considered the "victimized." But human nature is universal – and transcends race.
