Warning To Iran
Twenty-four countries, led by the United States, issued a joint statement yesterday warning Iran to stop conducting terrorist attacks in their countries. Intelligence indicates that Iranian operatives have been working with local and international gangs to carry out attacks against Iranian dissidents and Jewish institutions. The statement declares:
“We stand united in our determination to protect our countries and our people against these threats. The Islamic Republic of Iran must halt these actions now.”
A Canadian police officer was shot and killed today during an attempt to arrest suspects connected to recent Iranian-backed terrorist attacks.
In related news, President Trump announced that he has canceled military strikes against Iran planned for tonight due to significant progress in the negotiations to end the war.
Trump’s Secret
President Trump has been keeping a secret for the past month. It was about an extraordinary military operation he authorized that was executed flawlessly by the U.S. military.
In recent weeks, two hundred ships were secretly escorted through the Strait of Hormuz without incident. More than 100 million barrels of oil left the Persian Gulf and made it to the global market.
President Trump disclosed this operation while speaking with reporters in the Oval Office yesterday. He joked that he wanted so badly to tell us about the operation earlier to celebrate its success, but he couldn’t. Since the Iranians just discovered what was happening, he was able to brief us.
This operation is one reason why oil prices have not surged even higher, as was widely predicted. Yet, it’s amazing how little attention this operation got today from the media.
The U.S. military has always had a tremendous advantage with night vision technology, and this is a perfect example of it. But the Left and its media allies just can’t tolerate anything that hints at American ingenuity, technological superiority or the heroism of the American military.
Even during the 250th anniversary of the birth of our country, they are so obsessed with turning America into a socialist nightmare that they cannot allow people to think—even for one second—that there is an alternative called “American greatness.”
You don’t have to be a raving nationalist to want American greatness. A great America is good for you, your children, your grandchildren and the whole world. But many on the Left, especially our academic and cultural elites, despise our country.
So-called “progressives” tell pollsters they have more favorable views of France and Germany than America. More than half of Democrats say they would rather live in another country. I say, love it or leave it.
Iran vs. Elon
The Islamic Republic of Iran just issued a fatwa against Elon Musk. Usually something like this would be laughable, like a threat from the latest nut to run North Korea. But in the drone age, coming from the leading state sponsor of terrorism, it has to be taken seriously.
Iranian state media declared today, “The Islamic Republic of Iran reserves the right to attack all facilities related to [Musk]-managed holdings in the region and occupied territories.” Iran is particularly enraged by Musk’s Starlink satellite-based internet service, which is banned in Iran.
It’s possible you could wake up tomorrow morning or the next day to the news that some of the technological wonders Musk has built that are making life harder for tyrants have been attacked by Iran.
Another thought occurred to me. I couldn’t help but think about how much the Left has the same targets as America’s enemies do.
It was just a year ago that unhinged leftists were firebombing Tesla showrooms. They were making so many death threats against Musk and his DOGE team investigating government waste that they all had to have special security.
Shaming Seinfeld
Famed comedian Jerry Seinfeld is trending online thanks to one of his classic one-liners. As he was leaving Madison Square Garden after the NBA final game, he was approached by FinesseFave, an anti-Israel social media influencer, who asked Seinfeld to say, “Free Palestine.” He laughed and said, “It doesn’t exist.” You can watch the exchange here.
There’s a longer version of the exchange online, which I will spare you from. “Mr. Fave” and his friends drop a lot of F-bombs and say they need to do the same thing to “that other Jew” Larry David.
This is another tactic of the intolerant, totalitarian Left. Back in 2020, BLM activists ordered White people to kneel and apologize for their white privilege. Transgender activists demand that you lie about biological reality by calling a man “she.”
The exchange with Jerry Seinfeld is the product of left-wing university indoctrination coupled with mass migration from Muslim countries.
We are now in a situation where Jerry Seinfeld is ordered to speak the antisemitic slogans of the Islamist socialist Left. And if he doesn’t, he’s going to be taken down. And so is Larry David and anyone else who doesn’t do as they’re told.
Smearing Whistleblowers
Faye Bernstein worked for Minnesota’s Department of Human Services for 20 years. Bernstein knew how to do her job, and she knew how state grants were supposed to be administered. And in 2019, she noticed things were seriously wrong.
So, she did exactly what she should have done. She told her supervisors and other officials about the blatant fraud she had discovered. Her life changed immediately.
Bernstein was accused of insubordination for questioning the judgment of the department’s leadership and, of course, she was called “racist.” She told Minnesota legislators, “I was locked out of the building. I was banned from all DHS-owned and licensed property.”
But it didn’t end there. Bernstein and other whistleblowers were subjected to extraordinary intimidation. State investigators took pictures of their cars and homes. They monitored the whistleblowers’ phone calls. They even tried to find out where their children went to school.
This is how the totalitarian Left operates—whether it’s the old Soviet Union, Communist China or Democrat-dominated Minneapolis. It’s what Joe Biden did when he ordered the FBI to spy on parents at school board meetings and conservative churches. And that is the real danger to our constitutional Republic, not Donald Trump.
About That Trial. . .
There is a concerted effort underway to turn the Karmelo Anthony murder trial into a racial flashpoint. Even his parents and other family members are stoking racial discord, as they count the money from an online fundraising effort. Money was still pouring in even after the murder conviction.
The New Black Panther Party and other radicals showed up outside the courthouse this week, hoping to spark another “summer of love.” There were racist provocateurs waving Confederate flags in people’s faces. Both sides seemed to be begging for a race war.
Now, I haven’t seen any elected Republicans attempting to exploit this case, but there are Democrat politicians all over the place, especially Congresswoman Jasmine “Crazy” Crockett.
She claimed that the knife Karmelo Anthony used to stab Austin Metcalf in the heart was “not a deadly weapon.” That may be the dumbest statement she has ever made—and she’s made a lot of dumb statements. By the way, she has a law degree!
Crockett also had the audacity to say this:
“Black women, especially Black women who have Black male children, live in fear and agony every single day, a fear and agony that I promise you the Metcalfs probably never spend a day living that way.”
How dare she lecture the Metcalfs about fear and agony! Their son is dead. The family of the dead boy is being inundated with death threats. An online lynch mob is demanding the arrest of Austin’s twin brother, Hunter, who witnessed Austin’s murder.
Here are some basic facts you need to know about this case:
-
There is bodycam footage of Karmelo Anthony after the murder. A police officer says, “I have the alleged suspect [in custody].” Anthony then says, “I’m not alleged, I did it.”
-
The murder occurred at a high school track meet. There were a lot of people there, including at the scene of the murder. Prosecutors called 21 witnesses to testify against Anthony.
-
There are many claims that the jury was all White. That is false. There were three minorities on the jury. Of the six alternate jurors, three were minorities. So, of the total jury pool, one-third were minorities.
-
I have seen media reports that feed into the “racist jury” conspiracy by correctly stating there were no Black jurors but then completely fail to mention the minority jurors. In this atmosphere, that is media malfeasance.
But that’s how the Left sets the narrative. And their bias isn’t just how they twist the facts. It’s also what they refuse to report.
A White college student in Philadelphia was robbed by two Black men over the weekend. In a struggle for the student’s iPhone, one of the robbers shot and killed him. That crime with a White victim and Black criminals got little attention and was not run through a racial lens.
To put a finer point on it, during the trial in Texas, many Black people were shot and killed by Black thugs, and nobody gave a damn, including many so-called “civil rights” leaders in the Black community, as well as Rep. Crockett.
Racism On Steroids
Why do so many powerful people and entities go back to this default position of “racism, racism, racism”? Because that is what the Democrat Party has been saturating the country in for decades, and now it’s on steroids. That’s what DEI is all about.
In many school districts across the country, children are being taught that White children are inherently racist oppressors and there is nothing they can do about it. It is built into their DNA.
Black children are being taught that no matter how hard they work, they’re never going to succeed because they are oppressed and will always be oppressed unless they rise up and do something about it.
Our children are being taught that America has always been like this—evil from the very beginning, built on genocide and slavery.
If there is a summer of rioting, it will be because of this twisted leftist ideology.
Even the first man of color to be president of the United States spent more time stoking racial discord than he did taking advantage of the incredible opportunity he had to appeal to Black families on what is necessary for Black success.
It’s the same things that are necessary for White success and Hispanic success. The road to being successful in America is not a mystery. It doesn’t take a PhD.
One of the common denominators, which is quickly disappearing in front of our eyes among all young Americans, is getting a summer job. Don’t think any job that you get could possibly be beneath you. Right now, you don’t have any work experience or any skills to speak of to make you more hirable in the future.
