    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) Just getting started but MN state government (guess who, ultimately?) blocked investigators looking at the Skinny Minny fraud and blacklisted whistleblowers. New info today says Gheyboy's gubment threatened to come after their families and their homes. Who would ever want to work for this hideous, vile, evil snotbag of a state? And as many have prophesied, the violence will only increase because DemoKKKrats are out of options. Yesterday, Border Patrol shot two people in Portland. The leftoids' reaction? The Prancing Gheyboy Tampon Timmy announced that he was authorizing the call up of the national guard to protect police to "keep the peace." Watch: This will become a George Wallace in the school house door moment if they in any way obstruct ICE or federal agents: Trump will then have authority to nationalize them. Stupid move by the Tamponed One. And Congress? Yeah, they're so effective. Cong. Anna Paulina Luna has subpoenaed billionaire Neville Singham, who is flagrantly funding anti-ICE. Oh, and Renee Good, the dysfunctional woman who tried to run down an ICE officer and paid for it? She was an official "ICE watch" records show, officially aligned with anti-ICE terror groups. Sorry, no sympathy here. Then we have Scott "Hamilton" Bessent, who shut down all further Skinny transfers to the homeland. 2) I'm getting to be so right, so often, it's almost boring. I said that the Skinny Minny fraud would be found in MANY states, especially blue states. Welp, here is Washington State weighing in, with an audit showing $1.8 billion missing from King County. And here a NY state health program, riddled with fraud. 3) To no one's surprise, then, J.D. Vance rolled out a new assistant AG dedicated strictly to this kind of fraud and based in the White House, not the DOJ. 4) Saying that "we knocked out" all the drugs coming in by water, and now he will authorize strikes in Me-hee-co on the cartels. Wanna bet Scheinbaum suddenly finds the cajones to do the strikes herself? Again, though, this is concerning. Ol' Woody Wilson sent Blackjack Pershing and George Patton after Pancho Villa into Me-hee-co and they failed. Course, they were just running, as opposed to having large, stationary targets. 5) NJ has lurched far to the right as the latest voter registration there shows Rs gaining a whopping 44,000 on Ds. I know, I know, I repeat myself, but this is happening in EVERY SINGLE STATE WE CAN TRACK. In almost two years, the ONLY brief periods in ANY state where there has been a D "recovery" has been in PA and NJ during DemoKKKrat primary season. Both have lost all those gains. TX, which does not register by party, has handed over its full voter rolls to the feds, as per law. Ooh, and another D is leaving the house, making the number Rs -30, Ds -24 and growing. 6) Here is another reason Congress's approval is swirling the toilet bowl. When they do act, they do incredibly stupid stuff like extend Obamacare rather than kill that, er, witch. 7) There are Kollyfornia calls for Trump to federalize via emergency declaration Palisades where ZERO homebuilding has started after the fire a year ago. It is increasingly looking like blue states want to be seen as the Confederacy after Appomattox and want to be governed in "military districts." 8) Typical Trumpian carrot and stick. First he threatened Raytheon to get on board, that it was too slow and not delivering good enough stuff, then he announced a $1.5 trillion defense budget that sent defense stocks flying. Certain panic spoogenuggets very distraught. 9) Fat Fani Willis may be on the hook for millions in President Trump's legal fees. There's another room in the Trump Presidential Library. 10) Looks like the unhinged MTG may have tipped off protesters about Trump's visit to a restaurant, creating a security incident. 11) U-Haul records show it's not just millionaires leaving Kollyfornia. It's the highest gap between leavers and arrivals in any state in the Union. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 12) The ICE agent who in self defense fired at a nutjob MN driver who tried to run him over was nearly killed in June by an illegal alien invader rapist. President Trump spoke to the officer, who is recovering in the hospital. 13) If we have to bankrupt these jerkweeds, so be it. Department of Transpo has pulled $160 million from Kollyfornia for their practice of handing drivers' licenses to illegal piddledippers. 14) Hilton Hotels gave the boot to a Hampton Inn member hotel that refused reservations for ICE in Minny. Just a few days ago, Jeff Childers at "Coffee and Covid" reminded us (in the context of DEI at that time) that all invoices to the feds are basically a statement of compliance. Meaning, Hilton would have risked ALL its fed contracts if it allowed this goofball hotelier to stand. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 15) The U.S. trade deficit dropped to the lowest level in years, decreasing by $19 billion and prompting the Atlanta fed forecast 5.4% growth ...

    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) I told you that the feds were not even getting warmed up yet with the Skinny Minny fraud, that ultimately nearly every single fed agency will be involved in prosecuting these rectalsnappers. So here it comes. Trump orders the largest ever immigration enforcement effort in MN. As the song goes, "Here Comes the Boom." Just one more example: Feds are probing hundreds of millions in cash in luggage leaving the Mogadishu, er, Minneapolis airport. Trump could probably get all this done quicker by making a deal with the Cincinnati Bengals to trade Joe Burrow for 80,000 Somalis to be ushered back to their home stadium in Africa. I'm sure he can come up with a lucrative inducement for the Bengals. And how about this side effect: With Maduro out---as someone who was "threatening them"---up to 600,000 Venezuelan amnesty types no longer have a case and must go home. And MORE bad news, again confirming what I said about the all-expansive nature of these investigations, as state addiction and mental health facilities are just the latest fraud vehicles there. Trump is going after Kollyfornia soon, and right on cue, Gruesome vetoed a bill that would track state spending on homelessness and housing. Gee, why? Unless, maybe Old Oleaginous One knows that that spending is the center of state fraud. And here is a piece by the urinal lickers at the Slimes saying, "Wait a minute. You can't run on affordability and have fraud out there, cuz people will blame DemoKKKrat fraudsters for the lack of affordability." Bingo. 2) Not only did markets rise on the news of Maduro's unfortunate incarceration, but the arrest was bad news for the Russkies. Or so says the "Big Short's" Michael Burry. 3) Those of you who read this know I told you about this Monday, that among all the other things that great Maduro raid accomplished was that it showed Russkie and ChiCom tech is poopiecaca. The USN went through those defenses like tissue paper, and now other people are realizing it. Oh and here's another spinoff of the raid: the "bodyguards" who were killed were all Cubanos. Conservatives have said for decades that Cuba was the #1 source of instability in Latin America and this further confirms. And, as a bonus, the Amazing Zohran was outed when he said he was "briefed" on Maduro's capture. Nope. Doesn't even hold a security clearance, nor will he. 4) The Prancing Gheyboy Tampon Timmy can run---er, not run in this case (for another term)---but he can't hide. The Fed Fraudmobile is setting its GPS for him right now. Or, as Jeff Childers puts it, "Tim Walz, the vice presidential candidate one year ago, is now a political corpse, a stain on the party, and a spent force." Seth Keshel explains how Tampon Timmy did everything he could to expand election fraud in MN, and that there really is a red wave there if you can control the fraud. But to return to Jeff Childers for a moment: he argues that Team Trump had all the dirt on Tampon in the 2024 election but held fire. Well, based on the Maduro raid (and the previous Iran raid), "Silent" Susie Wiles has her troops moving swiftly but silently, almost as though the new Janissaries had their tongues, not their other members, removed. Meanwhile, Childers argues that this is typical prosecutor approach: go after the weakest member first (MN) then turn your guns on the Big Plate Full of Scabs, Kollyfornia, which is rife with fraud. And, right on cue, five DemoKKKrat states have been told their child care funds are frozen. It is truly amazing that after 10 years Trump can still play these people like Tom Brady looking off a free safety. He says "Greenland" and then freezes stuff. Do you get the irony? 5) Toddling Tommy Edsall at the New York Slimes is starting to get it. They are skeeered, very skeered, seeing that in fact the Trump revolution is now affecting culture. 6) Michael ("Granny Killer") Byrd, the officer who killed unarmed Ashli Babbitt on Patriot Day (J6) 2020, is revealed to be running an unaccredited daycare in MD and has pocketed up to $190 million in HHS funds. Sounds to me like he needs to be Maduro's bunk mate. Speaking of people who should be Maduro's bunk mates, the Pentagon DEMOTED U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly (what a humiliation) and reduced his retirement pay for his "don't obey legal orders" video. This saguaroschlub is fortunate not to get the Henry Wirtz treatment. 7) GOP Congressman from Kollyfornia, Doug LaMalfa, dead at age 65. Along with MTG's selfish departure, this leaves the GOP majority in the House at one. There are still four seats unfilled. 8) Voter registration update from PA, where both parties lost . . . but Ds lost 13,000 MORE than Rs. Slowly PA is following NC out of DemoKKKrat hands and should be a red state by registration before the 2028 election. 9) Was it really that long ago? On Monday I had a story that the Amazing Zohran was going to sell public buildings to developers to get the cost of housing down. Not so fast, says one of his ...

    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) In probably the greatest financial scandal in American history---dwarfing the Tweed Ring, the Whiskey Ring, and Teapot Dome, and in amounts rivaling the 2008 financial meltdown---the Skinny Minny Somali "day care" scandal is absolutely gigantic. I wrote about this in my substack yesterday, explaining why almost every major Department in the U.S. government is going to have a stake in exposing and punishing this. It affects the Department of Ag (food centers), Department of Ed ("learning centers," where one of the signs read "Learing Center"), the Department of Homeland Security and DOJ, and, to the extent multi-state fraud was involved, the SEC. If products were shipped in for fraud it could also involve Transportation. In other words, almost every element of the federal government has an interest in crushing this. So far, DOJ has arrested 100, of which 85 were not Amish. Also, as I said, it is not contained to just Minny, as already there are ongoing large investigations into Covid relief funds in IL, health care fraud in OH, A citizen journalist just arrived there to start the open kimono. Even DemoKKKrat ME has shut off payments to a Somali day care chain due to fraud claims. Then we have Medicare fraud in Kollyfornia, and now, it appears, more Somali fraud in Washington state. Aleady in WA state, a legislator who owns a series of day cares has filed legislation to hide them from scrutiny. When I say this "daycare" fraud will expand everywhere, I'm serious. Now HUD is looking at Rutabaga's "rental assistance" paid to the dead and to, ahem, non citizens. Furthermore, ya'll wanted election reform? Now the Skinny Minny fraud saga is being investigated as a front for fraudulent ballots and stolen elections.The Prancing Gheyboy Tampon TImmy is up to his evil little neck in this, and was warned last year of the fraud, but he obstructed investigations. It's so bad even Newsweak can't ignore it. Oh, and now MAGA is looking at crowdfunding hundreds of Nick Shirleys. 2) Wait, say what? Trump over 50% again in a major poll? Meaning he is likely over 55% since they always poll him low. 3) A judge has ordered that transcripts and audio from a closed-door hearing about alleged Charlie Kirk shooter Tyler Robinson must be made public. 4) As Don Henley sang, it's all about "Forgiveness, forgiveness" as an OR city put a murderer who gunned down a teenage girl on its police review board. 5) It looks like Big Firetruck is coming under antitrust heat for price fixing fire fighting trucks. 6) Shipwreckedcrew details in exhaustive fashion how the DOJ works. Try 6,500 assistant attorneys, 3,200 trial attorneys. Tens of thousands of cases per day. All cases still in the pipeline from Trump 1 to Rutabaga still must be pursued. Because of opposition to Trump, turnover has been as high as 2/3 in some departments. Only 31 of 93 U.S. attorneys nominated by Trump have been confirmed so far. And yet Bondi's crew has won almost every single case the toadstools brought against Trump. Meanwhile, it's possible that DOJ was just looking for the right glue to hold everything together, as Bondi has tasked investigators to look into an election-meddling conspiracy. 7) The Traitor Tuppence mirage: why the "right" isn't leaving Trump. 8) DemoKKKrats in trouble financially. Rs have almost an $80m advantage in fundraising. 9) Oh and how about this one? The administration has changed the wording of federal contracts to say that if a company is engaged in DEI it is engaging in fraud. Fed contracts now will require that a contractor NOT be engaging in DEI discrimination or it will violate funding clauses. In other words, companies that work for Uncle Sam may not in any way be involved in DEI or they won't get their cheddar. As Jeff Childers says, once you sign that fed contract, every invoice becomes a certificate of compliance. Who does that affect? Gee, last week Google and Verizon just got requests for docs from the DOJ. Folks, this is titanic, and is the equivalent of the Civil Rights Act of 1965 in what will be its effects on institutions, including colleges. 10) Violent crime arrests double in Trump's first year. Meanwhile, the D.C. pipe bomber confessed and said it wasn't about Trump. "I just snapped." Yeah, we all make bombs when we just snap. 11) A federal court allowed President Trump's block on the use of Medicaid money for Planned Murderhood to stand. 12) President Trump vetoed a water bill for CO until the state ends its "Sanctuary" status and frees Tina Peters. This is how you play hardball. 13) Oh, the other side knows how to play hardball too: the mayor of Groomer City (SF) snuck through a reparations bill that would give each black resident $5 million. If they hand out a single dollar, watch the lawsuits fly faster than a hypersonic missile, and watch them thoroughly bankrupt Groomer City. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 14) The number of illegal invaders coming into Kollyfornia plummeted ...
