Miranda Devine dispenses with the polite fiction and just comes right out and says it.

Miranda Devine: Fauci’s silence on his monstrous COVID sins spoke volumes — and solidified him as a reprehensible villain
What a cowardly and shameful final chapter for Dr. Anthony Fauci, who pleaded the Fifth 111 times in the Senate Wednesday even though he has a pre-emptive presidential pardon that gives him immunity from prosecution.

In the history of Congress, only a couple of mob bosses have invoked the privilege more.

But Fauci’s silence rendered him a villain more powerfully than his usual sly deceptions.

Shameful, too, were the Democrats and their media handmaidens who continue to run cover for Fauci, singing his praises, and denying their flock the truth about a man who filled his pandemic diary with self-praise and celebrity worship while remaining callously aloof from the human suffering he had caused.

The damage their censorship did during COVID, and their dishonest glossing of Fauci’s reputation, damns them.

The 5 most shocking moments from Anthony Fauci’s Senate COVID testimony
Yet instead of self-reflection in the face of overwhelming evidence of Fauci’s complicity in one of the deadliest man-made health crises in history, they double down.

History will not be kind to them, either.

The children locked out of school, the grandparents who died alone, the families torn apart, remain on his conscience.

We would wish him jail, yet he is unlikely to receive the punishment he has earned for directing tax dollars toward the dangerous gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses in a Chinese lab that unleashed a pandemic that killed millions, and for the coverup and associated lockdown he helped orchestrate.

Unlikely in the extreme, I’d say. Soon enough, the Democrats will regain total power in Amerika v2.0 once more, and Fauci the Poisonous Dwarf’s reputation and legacy will be rehabilitated lock, stock, and barrel. Enemedia will restart the jubilee of praise for the hero bureaucrat who saved us all from our own stupidity and recklessness; all will be well once more. JJ says it:

If there were any true justice in this world, his final chapter would end with him strapped into a gurney in the death house of a federal prison, and a doctor declaring him dead after being given a lethal injection.

Annnnnd woot, there it is.

On the spectrum? SRSLY?!?

According to sources, the van plus machete attack at a LGBTQ pride parade in Berlin, Germany on the weekend was carried out by the usual lone wolf:

Twenty-year old man born in Berlin of Lebanese descent.

Investigated for attempt to join IS in Syria.

Brought back from Lebanon to Germany to stand trial.

“Sentenced to 13 months for attempting a terror attack but the judge converted it to probation.”

After his release in May of this year from the juvenile justice system, he attended two “screening” sessions and was scheduled to attend the third today as part of the “deradicalisation” program he was ordered to attend.

Police searched his home for a weapon less than a month ago but allegedly only found a toy gun.

Possible male accomplice at large.

At the time of this writing, one woman is dead (The woman killed in the attack at Berlin’s Pride march was a 65-year-old who had traveled from Warsaw to attend with her daughter) and twenty-nine people are injured.

All very predictable…

But, what really caught our eye was this:

4. Update: Ein mutmaßlicher Tatverdächtiger konnte identifiziert werden. Nach bisherigen Erkenntnissen handelt es sich um einen polizeibekannten Mann, der dem islamistischen Spektrum zugerechnet wird. Nach dem Tatverdächtigen soll zeitnah öffentlich gefahndet werden.#b2507 pic.twitter.com/3pTyhTy6An

Or, in other words:

Newsreader on BBC radio reporting the Berlin attack on the Pride parade: ‘The suspect is thought to be from the Islamist spectrum.’ SPECTRUM!

Regardless of whether or not morale improves.

Taxpayer-funded trans dolls with removable genitalia to hit classrooms this fall for kids as young as 4 to ‘learn about different options’
They’re dolling up the trans agenda — and taxpayers are footing the bill.

“First-of-their-kind” transgender dolls — complete with removable genitalia — will debut in some Minnesota classrooms this fall to kids as young as 4 years old.

The paper dolls, with gender-neutral names like “Sam,” “Rory,” “Avery” and “Parker,” have removable internal and external genitals, along with more than 100 interchangeable pieces of clothing, accessories and hairstyles — like a trans Mr./Mrs. Potato Head.

he goal is for kids to “learn about the different options that exist for who they can be,” according to a therapist at the University of Minnesota Medical School, which spent over half a decade developing the controversial project funded by lefty Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
Mighta knowed that doughboy swish would figure into this horseshit somewhere.
The trans dolls — which promise to “make gender fun” — will be made available to teachers, school counselors, pediatricians and mental health providers, according to a website of the “MyGender Dolls” company. It features an image of a boy doll wearing a dress and others in various states of sexual identity confusion.

It’s not known whether parents — or children themselves — will be able to order a doll, or if they will only be marketed to professionals and schools. It is not known if parents will be able to opt out of such “therapeutic play” for their kids.

Of COURSE they won’t. That would be racist, sexist, fascist, and homophobic. H888RRRR.

“They will find anybody who’s in trouble and use this as a tool to say, ‘this is why you’re unhappy.’ This is absolutely grooming,” slammed Dr. Quentin Van Meter, past president of the American College of Pediatricians.

“The younger kids — many of them still believe in the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy. And you’re then presenting them with paper dolls that kind of look fun, and you can change clothing, hair, genitals… It’s well beyond their ability to sort out fantasy from reality.”

When reached by The Post, a university spokesperson claimed no public funds were used “to support MyGender Dolls’ commercialization efforts.”

But when pressed on how much taxpayer money went to research and development of the dolls, and to the salaries of the professors involved in the project, the university refused to answer, telling The Post instead to file a freedom of information request.

Walz’s office did not return The Post’s request for comment.

Yeah, I just bet not.

Deep-fried Fauci

And here, his troubles began.

Rand Paul Orders Fauci’s Lawyer Removed As Hearing Grows Chaotic
Former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases — and apparently, serial perjurer — Anthony Fauci pleaded the Fifth Amendment and had his lawyer answer for him one too many times during a congressional hearing Wednesday.

Senate Republicans are a lot of talk and no action most of the time. But it is understandable that Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) would want to harangue Fauci after the release of Fauci’s journal logs at NIAID during the COVID-19 pandemic revealed that Fauci repeatedly lied under oath to Congress. Fauci understands that pretty much anything he admits is incriminating at this point, which is why he kept having his lawyer answer. But a congressional hearing is not the same thing as an ordinary court, and one’s lawyer cannot simply answer questions from a senator without permission nor sit in the incorrect seat.

One of the most damning contradictions between Fauci’s public and congressional testimony versus what he was saying in private regarded his journal admission that the COVID vaccines were not in fact effective at preventing transmission. In May 2021, Fauci said during an interview aimed specifically at children, “But if you get vaccinated, when the virus tries to infect you, the virus can’t because you are protected.” In November of that year, Fauci told Business Insider that he didn’t know what parents were waiting for to inject their toddlers with the COVID-19 vaccines.

I doubt there’s any sensible, sane sort who seriously expects Fauci will ever face real justice for his serial crimes against the nation, the US Constitution, and its citizenry (which, far as I’m concerned, could only mean death by hanging), or even prison time. But he’s by no means out of the woods all the same; for one thing, he has America’s Governator on his despicable, lying ass too.

Biden-Pardoned Fauci Now Faces Florida State Investigation
It seems Dr. Anthony Fauci, his rapid-fire invocations of the Fifth Amendment, presidential pardon and all, isn’t out of the woods yet. Here at RedState and pretty much everywhere else in the known universe where people are following all this, we’ve noted that the pardon doesn’t protect Dr. Fauci from charges at the state level.

And, the first state to take action on that possibility? Florida. The Sunshine State is launching an investigation into Dr. Fauci and his economy-crushing COVID-19 debacle.

So, what crimes might Dr. Fauci be on the hook for in Florida? The state of Florida may seek charges for civil rights violations resulting from the pandemic restrictions, which were ruinous to small businesses and damaging to schoolkids, who missed out on months of in-person instruction. But those matters are generally civil cases, not criminal ones. Florida may seek to file a civil lawsuit, but for better or for worse, Dr. Fauci was a federal employee making decisions that affected national policy; it’s hard to see a state, any state, pursuing criminal charges against him.

Governor Ron DeSantis was a vocal opponent of the COVID lockdowns, and Florida was among the first states to drop those restrictions. But it’s a little hard to see that developing into a criminal case, one that would convince a grand jury to return an indictment.

But civil liability? That may well be another story.

Possibly the most gratifying thing I’ve read all day on this is an account which reported—after feebly pleading the Fifth over a hundred times; having his lawyer unceremoniously chucked out of the Senate chambers; and being closely, aggressively questioned by several Sentaors included Paul Hawly, and Moreno—that Fauci the Poisonous Dwarf slunk away from his ordeal with tail dragging and head bowed, his rep forever destroyed by his own hubris, greed, and vanity. Happily, Fauci’s “legacy” will not now be what he had so desperately hoped it might, but rather one of disgrace, dishonesty, and disfavor.

Fauci, far from being the courageous, über-intelligent superhero whi stars in his idle fantasies, is nothing but a mediocrity who—via deceit, malfeasance, and stark contempt for scientific rigor—maneged to parlay an over-extended career as a big-government bureacrat into personal wealth and, if not exactly fame, then notoriety anyway. If nothing else, no one should ever address him as “Doctor” again; he ain’t one—ain’t ever been, ain’t ever gonna be.

Update! Ross posts a Fauci Meme-Storm, and boy, is it EVER. Like the man says, somebody had to do it. My personal favorite:

Not playing

Posted on July 23, 2026 by Mike 2 Comments

And as per usual, Schlichter is having just WAY too much fun here.

You Don’t Have to Be Complicit in a Lie
The other day, they held a debate in Maine, choosing among the potential replacements for Herr Öystërgrüppënführër after his ignominious and cowardly retreat from the Senate nomination, and it was just as horrific as you could imagine. Most of the candidates were just communists, but one was a dude pretending to be a woman. And this wasn’t just any dude. This was a slab of beef, a hulking mook who could’ve been a construction worker if he hadn’t gone off the rails, but is now probably a dungeonmaster in the world’s worst D&D campaign. And you sat there watching this 12th-level ogre, feeling either pity—if he is simply deranged—or contempt if he’s some sort of pervert. Those are your two options. But you also had to wonder what was up with the media and the other candidates. After all, it was a man dressed as a woman, and nobody called out the weirdo in the room.

Let’s establish something right at the beginning. You should have compassion for people who suffer from the mental disorder of gender dysphoria—these people are in pain through no fault of their own. But you should have contempt for those who are merely perverted, and plenty are. Sick or sicko: those are your options. You are in no way required, morally, ethically, or otherwise, to cater to their delusion either way. A dude who decides he’s a chick, much like a chick who decides she’s a dude, is not entitled to your obedient and humiliating concurrence with the lie they are living.

If you talk to gay people, most of them have had it with the trans fanatics, too. But sadly, the faculty-lounge communists, sexually dysfunctional wine women, and the other assorted creeps who have taken over the Democrat Party, think differently. They try to force this mutant gender ideology down our throats with social intimidation when we resist. But, of course, we weren’t always resisting. We tried to be nice. Live and let live, you know—right up until the point where they wanted to live in our kids’ schools. The cultural Marxists exploited what was basic courtesy—you don’t go out of your way to cause people pain unless they deserve it—and morph it into complicity.

And the weirdest thing is when libs look you in the eyes and say, “Yes, this man pretending to be a woman is actually a woman.” We saw that with the head of a medical school the other day testifying to Congress that “the vast majority” of the people who have babies are women. Well, that’s technically true, but it’s not exactly specific. If he were specific, he would have said all of the people who have babies are women. And in fact, he didn’t even need to say that because we all know it. But he was making a statement. He was showing allyship. He was allowing himself to be ritually humiliated by saying what he knows is a lie to people who know he’s lying in order to prove he’s willing to defenestrate his own dignity and honor for the sake of solidarity and cocktail party invitations. That’s the thing—if you’re not all-in with the lie, it’s social suicide in the lofty circles. Just look at all the ungrateful actors who made it big in the Harry Potter movies turning on the author of the books that lifted them out of obscurity.

So, how do we fight back?

With strength. Have the strength to be impolite. You don’t need to go out of your way to hassle people, though the left seems intent on normalizing that. You just have to have the strength not to play along. Embrace the power of “No.”

No, that’s obviously a man and not a woman.

No, a man cannot be pregnant.

No, a woman cannot be a father.

No, castrating males and chopping the breasts off of women and doing other unspeakable things with a scalpel and chemicals is not “gender-affirming care.” It’s an atrocity that would make Caligula puke.

I don’t know if they teach kids fairytales and fables anymore, but the story of the Emperor’s New Clothes comes to mind. Except this emperor isn’t butt naked. He’s wearing a cocktail dress and teetering on stilettos while sporting a 5 o’clock shadow.

Be the kid who points at him and shouts, “It’s a man, baby!”

Seconded, wholeheartedly. Yes, there’s a pic at the link of the grotesque Manwoman-thing Kurt lambastes at the top of the article; those with weak stomachs are strongly advised to skip it.

Some things are transitory

Posted on July 14, 2026July 15, 2026 by Mike

Other things, however, will never change. The brutality, cruelty, and inherent, witless violence of Pisslam would definitely be in that category.

A Kiss in Indonesia and Its Aftermath Reveal the Heart and Soul of Islam
A kiss is still a kiss, as the old song goes, but in Indonesia’s Aceh province, it’s going to cost you. Not in terms of money, but in terms of the skin off your back. A young couple in Aceh just found that out after they shared a kiss on a TikTok stream, and found themselves hauled before a Sharia court and charged with violating the rules of modesty and the proper decorum that is to be maintained between an unmarried man and woman.

For that, they were each sentenced to 21 lashes, and the sentence was recently carried out before a gaping crowd of righteously indignant Sharia-adherent Muslims who know now never, ever to livestream a kiss. And so once again we see the true heart and soul of Islam: terror. While Muslim and non-Muslim Islamic apologists in the West continue to insist that the true Islam is benign and cuddly, and that terrorism is only a tiny minority of extremists’ “hijacking” of the religion, in reality, terror is at the very center of Islam. This latest caning in Aceh shows that anew.

The South China Morning Post reported Friday that “as each blow landed on their backs, the unnamed man, 22, and woman, 25, visibly grimaced. The woman later burst into tears, wailing in pain as the public punishment continued.” The Post noted that video of the canings had kicked up the usual firestorm: “It was far from the first such case to gain international attention and the response has become familiar: footage spreads online, rights groups condemn the punishment as inhumane and Aceh’s status as the Muslim-majority country’s sole sharia-enforcing province is thrust back into the spotlight.”

Yes indeed: “In a statement issued the same day as the flogging, Amnesty International said all forms of corporal punishment constituted torture or other ‘cruel, inhuman or degrading punishment,’ while its co-regional director, Montse Ferrer, called the caning of the couple ‘a horrifying act of discrimination.’”

In Aceh, however, they simply don’t care: “Nurjani, a 62-year-old housewife in Banda Aceh, said she supported caning because it ‘was about religion’ and in line with sharia law.” She explained: “If you do not do anything wrong, then there is nothing to fear. I support caning and I believe that if you lead your life in the right way and walk the right path, no one will question you.” Another Aceh resident, Muhammad Nasir, agreed, saying: “If someone is caned, it will be a lesson for them so that they do not do the same thing again. It has a physical element to it, but it is mostly social and designed to make the person ashamed of their crimes.”

Yes, and more than just ashamed: terrified. The caning is designed to make people afraid to violate Allah’s law again. People who have been caned in Indonesia have ended up collapsing and being hospitalized. If you don’t want to end up permanently injured, or at very least to suffer agonizing pain in front of a crowd that has gathered to watch you suffer, then don’t kiss a girl on TikTok.

This has nothing to do with virtue, the idea of choosing to do what is good because it is good. This is all about fear from the beginning to the end. The Qur’an tells Muslims to “strike terror in the enemies of Allah” (8:60), and lest any of Allah’s obedient slaves are tempted to violate his law and thus become his enemies as well, they get terrorized, too.

Every Westerner possessed of even a mere modicum of decency, compassion, and integrity is obligated to do everything he possibly can to aid in the destruction of Pisslam, one of the foulest, most fearful scourges ever to begrime our poor Earth.

The nightmarish blight that is Pisslam and all its evil works have been tolerated by the West for far, far too long now. We all know the score; without exception, every thinking person well knows deep in his heart what this vile pseudo-religion really is—what it intends, what it demands of its troglodytic followers, what wickedness and blood-drenched atrocities they gleefully commit, again and again, in its unholy name—yet in our disgraceful torpor, to our eternal shame we do nothing.

Pisslam must be obliterated, its loathsome adherents crushed until all that’s left is an unpleasant, rapidly-fading memory. Any lazy, gormless Westerner who keeps on puking forth one sad, sorry excuse after another for his political “leadership’s” flat refusal to take action to stanch the blood-dimmed tide of Mohammedanism—to foil the Musselman’s creeping, incremental conquest of all humanity—is guilty of de facto complicity in his own subjugation, and will reap the whirlwind he hath sown ere the end. I guar-on-gott-damn-TEE you he ain’t gonna enjoy it, either.

So there you have it, folks. We don’t have to like it, no…but we DO have to do it. There is no easy, fun, safe, pain-free option for us here. Success is by no means a sure thing, alas. Still; as the old saying goes: ROOT, HOG, OR DIE. Time’s nearly up; best get to it before what time we still do have expires completely.

Transgender American regrets fleeing to the Netherlands because all the Muslim migrants want to kill him
No, this is not a Babylon Bee story. This is real life.

It’s scary. It’s legitimately scary. I decided that my mental health is degrading so substantially being here that I just need to get out.

The situation I have in the U.S. as a trans person – not good, right? – but here I will be hurt or killed.

Best bit? Gotta be this right hyar (bold mine).

This interview took place in Ter Apel, a Dutch town with only 10,000 residents.

Like many small Western towns, the government has decided to fill Ter Apel with cultural enrichers – most of them military-aged Muslim men who love jihad.

Over 2,200 “refugees” now live at a center in the town – more than a quarter of the native population – putting residents in fear.

Hm. Sounds like somebody’s figured out the whole mishegas might actually be what you call one of them self-solving problems.

Y’know, I’ve read that historically, the Dutch were a pretty dang tough bunch. Having been to the Netherlands myself a time or two and mingled with a fair few of them over there, I can definitely tell you that ordinary, rank ‘n file Dutch folk ain’t at all happy with the Moslem immivasion foisted on them by their Ruling Class politicians.

Yeah, schwarma and falafel are pretty good, I like ’em both. But they ain’t worth the price you ultimately gotta pay to enjoy easy, regular access to them, I don’t think.

The way things is

Posted on July 13, 2026 by Mike

Our old chums over at Flopping Aces lay it all out for us.

America’s ruling class has performed another miracle.

They took the most basic truths in human civilization … crime needs punishment, borders need enforcement, schools should teach, welfare should be temporary, families matter, merit matters, and taxpayers should not be looted by professional parasites … and somehow rebranded all of that as “extremism.”

Incredible work, really.

Apparently, a “compassionate” society is one where the violent repeat offender gets another chance, the victim gets a candlelight vigil, the taxpayer gets the bill, the schoolkid gets passed along illiterate, the fraudster gets a grant, the NGO gets another contract, the illegal alien gets services, and the working American gets told to shut up and be more inclusive.

What a beautiful system.

Soft justice did not stay in the courtroom. It metastasized. It became soft borders, soft schools, soft parenting, soft welfare, soft standards, soft men, and soft bureaucrats explaining why every obvious solution is “too harsh.”

Lock up predators? Cruel.
Deport illegals? Hateful.
End generational welfare? Lacking empathy.
Punish fraud? Complicated.
Restore merit? Problematic.
Teach kids to read? Probably colonialism by Tuesday.

A serious country protects the innocent from the guilty. A decaying country protects the guilty from consequences and makes the innocent finance the experiment.

That’s America’s real crisis.

Not poverty. Not “root causes.” Not another fake expert panel.

Consequences.

We stopped imposing them on the people destroying the country, so now the country imposes them on everyone else.

That’s merely the Twitter/X-cerpt from the full, somewhat lengthier article, findable here and eminently worth your while.

Whose fault? Why, TRUMP’S fault, of course!

Posted on July 10, 2026July 11, 2026 by Mike

Who else?

QUELLE SURPRISE! NY Times Blames Platner on — You Guessed It — President Trump
Here’s my biggest problem with the current state of looniness on the left these days. It’s not just that the Democrats and their flying monkeys in the mainstream media have had sanity in their rearview mirrors for years now; it’s that they’ve become criminally boring while doing so. We’ve all seen One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest; we know that there are crazy people out there who are fun to watch. The 2026 Democrats are just an endless parade of yawn-inducing predictability.

It’s a given that no Democrat will ever take responsibility for anything that he or she has done wrong; personal accountability is anathema to them. Although it has always been a devout hive mind, the Democratic Party did used to be good at properly throwing one of its own under the bus when it served its purposes. Now, thanks to Stage 4 Trump Derangement Syndrome, Dems and the MSM propagandists are obligated to make excuses for any one of theirs who has fallen by the wayside, no matter how aberrant the behavior. More precisely, they are obligated to make an excuse, and that excuse is always the same.

It’s President Donald Trump’s fault.

Virtually everything written in the Times’ Opinion section is a cry for a coupon book to electroshock therapy.

One thing that I do like about the Opinion pieces in the Times is that there is never any tease or slow build-up before the whole thing goes off the rails. The crazy guy spitting up goldfish crackers in the corner while banging his head against the wall doesn’t do nuance. Here’s Yglesias kicking off this one:

Michelle, last fall, you went to Maine and walked away impressed by Platner’s charisma. You’d later write that he was “nothing like the edgelord caricature” you’d encountered online. I met Platner last summer, right after he announced his campaign, and also found him incredibly charming and charismatic, even though I didn’t really agree with his populist pitch. Alex, you have spoken to him too. Is it possible that many of us were somehow too informed on this story, and people who hadn’t interacted with the candidate saw things more clearly?

I’m certain that I could have Yglesias talk me through the “too informed” thing for a week and he’d never adequately explain it. That’s only because he’s incapable of being honest with himself. He couldn’t possibly admit that what he did there was position himself as being intellectually superior to his readers while at the same time telling them that he was too stupid to see what was in front of him.

The general vibe here is that Platner is the only Dem candidate in recent years who has any, shall we say, rough edges. As I wrote in the Morning Briefing at the beginning of June, Platner is definitely not an outlier in the Democratic Party. They accepted him simply because he is them. Dems are in their sixth decade of making excuses for Teddy Kennedy; covering for awful people is part of the party’s DNA.

Commie radicals; pedophiles; rapists; noxious bigots; gender-addled sexual deviants; dimestore dictators; violence-prone narcissists: they don’t merely COVER for awful people—for the most part, they ARE awful people. It’s why the spectacular Platner self-immolation has them so fretful and perturbed of late; by plumping so hard for an obvious creep early on, their true colors were on open display for all to see, leaving them nothing to hide behind, no more masks or disguises to don, no plausible excuses and rationalizations to crouch beneath until, with lots of MSM assistance, the whole self-generated shitstorm blows over and is forgotten.

Anybody with even half a lick of sense knew what these dirtbags were all along; now, after this debacle, EVERYBODY does. It’s an extremely ugly picture, and there ain’t no unseeing it.

Update! Larry Correia expresses it a helluva lot better than I can.

Don’t let them distance themselves now. These shit heads knew Platner was scum the whole time and made excuses for him.

Who could have possibly imagined that a dude with a nazi tattoo on his chest would have a history of poor life choices? Not the DNC. This was a shocking revelation. Shocking I say. This is my shocked face.

The democrats are so desperate to get a straight white male figurehead to distance themselves from the stink of failure that is the Kamala era DEI/Box Wine Cat Lady Party, that if you look even sorta like a traditional man they’ll run you for office.

Except the democrats are so fundamentally opposed to traditional, working class masculinity all they can scrape up is closeted weirdos like Walz or Talarico, and psychopath prep schoolers like Platner. Then they try to cosplay as normal, but since they’re democrats, normal is impossible for them.

Annnnnd BINGO. Nailed it, clean and tight.

No shit, Dick Tracy, where’s the fuckin’ squad car?

Posted on July 10, 2026July 10, 2026 by Mike

Trump FINALLY figures it out. Well, kinda-sorta, I suppose.

President Trump Signals End of “Waste of Time” Ceasefire With Iran
There is a moment in every failed negotiation when one side finally says out loud what everyone else has been thinking. That moment arrived Wednesday in Ankara, when President Donald Trump, seated beside NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte at the alliance’s annual summit, was asked about the status of America’s tentative ceasefire with Iran. His answer required no translation from diplomatic language because he refused to use any.

“For me, I think it’s over,” Trump said. “As far as I’m concerned it’s just a waste of time.”

Trump’s frustration was not with the terms of the deal but with the character of the men across the table. He accused Iranian negotiators of agreeing to terms in private and then denying them in public, a pattern anyone who has followed four decades of Islamic Republic diplomacy will recognize instantly.

“They’re liars. We make a deal. … They go outside, talk to the press. They say, ‘We never even talked about it.’ … As far as I’m concerned, it’s over.”

He left the door open for his negotiators to keep meeting with their Iranian counterparts, then promptly explained why it would accomplish nothing. “They can talk, but I think they’re wasting their time. They’re liars, they’re cheats. They’re sick people.”

“Left the door open”? Yeah, you might say that…unfortunately.

The United States Is Still Talking to Iran After Big Strikes
Technical talks between the United States and Iran are ongoing despite recent strikes and apparent rising tensions.

A United States official confirmed to Townhall that “the United States is still committed to finding a resolution, and technical talks continue,” adding that “Iran can never possess a nuclear weapon.”

Yeah, well, until you mouthy jackasses recognize once and for all that A) no “deal” you ever reach with them will be worth the simple chronic halitosis expelled during the “negotiations,” and B) the Mad Mullah regime can NOT be trusted, will NEVER negotiate in good faith, and is SUPREMELY uninterested in what the political leadership of the Great Satan might think about their insane ambitions, then an Iranian nuke isn’t quite the practical impossibility certain Administration personnel would have us believe.

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: as long as there remains a political entity in the ME called the Islamic Republic of Iran, then the job isn’t truly done. And until such time as Amerika v2.0’s political leadership has the intestinal fortitude to see that project through to the bitter, painful end, we shouldn’t even be dicking around over there at all.

Love him or hate him, Trump is only human, and as such is every bit as capable of making a mistake as anybody else. It’s my carefully considered opinion that he’s made a YUUUUGE one here, and needs to try, try again until he gets it right. It’s only the whole world that’s at stake, that’s all—no pressure or anything, Mr President, sir.

Will no one rid me of this turbulent Commie whore?

The Enemy within.

When Will Obama Say, ‘What’s Happened to My Party?’
In 2013, Obama said, “… nobody questions the efficacy of market economies in terms of producing wealth and innovation and keeping us competitive.”

Today, some of the Democratic Party’s rising stars, with the biggest voices, do exactly that.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani vows to “replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.” One of his endorsed candidates for the U.S. House, Darializa Avila Chevalier, expressed views that would have been unrecognizable in the Democratic Party of President Obama.

Avila Chevalier once retweeted: “I just cannot get over the fact that the universe has foisted upon us the perfect illustration of literally every failing of capitalism and people are still like we can’t be communists cuz there won’t be enough types of soup.” CNN examined her now-deleted X account and reported it contained “repeated sympathetic references to communism, Marxist ideology and Soviet figures, including Vladimir Lenin.” Another post encouraged workers to “seize the means of production.” Another advocated worker control of wealth. She wrote: “You can call that communism, you can call it socialism, you can call it pancakes.” She described Karl Marx’s “Das Kapital” as an “essential must-read.”

Her posts went well beyond economics. In April 2020, she called Joe Biden a “rapist.” After then-Vice President Kamala Harris urged migrants not to cross the southern border illegally, Avila Chevalier responded: “I have no nuance to add. (Expletive) Kamala Harris.”

Avila Chevalier called for abolishing police and prisons, posted about wiping her hands on the American flag, and denounced interracial relationships by accusing Black and Arab men of “fetishizing ugly colonizer women,” one of several posts in which she attacked white women.

Claire Valdez, another Mamdani-endorsed Democratic nominee for the U.S. House, has vowed to “take away buildings” from alleged slumlords and supports nationwide rent control.

Where is Barack Obama?

Same place he’s always been: lurking backstage, disguised behind the mask of reasonable, moderate, common-sense Leftism. It’s a mark of how abysmally far we’ve come, in precisely the wrong direction, that his ideological heirs now disdain to even bother with the familiar old D卐M☭CRAT duplicity, disguises, and deceits.

Kill her. Kill them ALL.

Tons of chatter about Uwe Bolt’s magnum opus out there, some pro, some con, but if this extended 7.5-minute snippet doesn’t motivate you to watch the whole thing, you’re probably a damned liberal.

Update! Direct, do-it-yourself justice is busting out all over, looks like.

Mexican Batman Duct-Tapes Alleged Motorcycle Thieves to Lamp Posts
A vigilante nicknamed ‘Batman of Lagos de Moreno’ has become known in the Mexican state of Jalisco for tying alleged motorcycle thieves to lamp posts

Tired of waiting for local police to do their duty and bring criminals to justice, a mysterious vigilante in the town of Lagos de Moreno, Mexico’s Jalisco state, has been duct-taping alleged motorcycle thieves to lamp posts and leaving them for authorities to find. At least five ‘victims’ have been found so far.

The mysterious ‘Batman’ started operating in Lagos de Moreno in mid-June. The first person was found duct-taped to a lamp post, with ‘thief’ written on his forehead, on June 13th. An allegedly stolen motorcycle was also found nearby, suggesting that the immobilized person was a thief. But this was only the beginning, as police have since discovered at least 4 other alleged thieves tied to lamp posts.

Yes, there are pictures, and they’re hilarious. Unfortunately, the “proper authorities” appear to have learned nothing whatsoever from all this (bold mine).

Although most people seem convinced this crusade against alleged motorcycle thieves is the work of a single vigilante, local authorities told news reporters that this might be the work of a gang of vigilantes. Interestingly, so far, the victims have not provided any clarification in that regard.

Jalisco’s Secretary of Public Security, Juan Pablo Hernández, reported that investigations are underway to clarify the attacks and locate those involved. He also emphasized that the five men found bound so far are currently being treated as victims, adding that no one should take the law into their own hands, regardless of their motives.

Yeah well, sorry to have to hip ya to it and all, pal, but people are only gonna take so much official crim-coddling, excuse-making, and hands-off, lackadaisical “policing” before they r’are up on their hind legs and start taking care of business for themselves. Expecting otherwise from them is a mug’s game, at best.

Remember, duct-taping the thieving skin-bags to a lamp post is the MODERATE response.

Baseballers ain’t having none

Tough titty for the team owners, MLB bigwigs, &c.

MLB Continues Shameful Anti-Christian Crusade—Threatens Players Over Bible Verses on ‘Pride Night’ Caps
In yet another display of its ongoing war on Christian faith, Major League Baseball has issued an official warning to three San Francisco Giants pitchers who dared to write Bible verses on their Pride Night caps.

And by ‘warning’ we mean threat, because what follows a warning in sports? Most likely a fine. Or, you know, as per Rule 3.03 of the official MLB Rulebook, a non-conforming player can be barred from participating in the game.

While the league under Commissioner Rob Manfred eagerly green-lights rainbow alterations and perpetually bows to the LGBT alphabet mafia, it is drawing a firm line at players subtly referencing God’s word.

It’s shameful. Utterly shameful.

It is that, at the very, very LEAST. Ahh, but does the story get even better, you ask? Why, yes; yes, it most certainly does.

Courage is indeed contagious. The brave stand of the San Francisco Giants’ players who wrote Genesis 9:12-16 on their caps, and the Texas Rangers’ continued stance to not host Pride Nights in June, has much to do with this latest development in the pushback on the month-long Pride celebrations from more baseball players.

The York Revolution announced it has canceled and forfeited its scheduled Thursday game against the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs after several players refused to wear the team’s planned Pride Night jerseys.

In a statement issued late Wednesday, the club said the decision was made with “great disappointment” and that tickets for the June 18 game will be treated as a rainout and may be redeemed for any future 2026 regular-season home game.

From the York franchise’s statement.

No excerpt from that turgid mess of groveling, pusillanimous rumpswabbery, sorry not sorry. Heap big kudos, however, to the York Rev players, the Texas Rangers, the SF Jints, and the rest for their bold stand in defiance of PC/Wokester fascism, sez I. My favorite bit? Gotta be this:

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott praised his Texas Rangers, who continue to lead by example, and chastised Major League Baseball for their punitive attitude towards free speech expressions of faith.

The Texas Rangers are the only team in Major League Baseball that doesn’t host a Pride Night. This week, they’re hosting Faith and Family Night instead.

Meanwhile, MLB just warned Giants pitchers for writing Bible verses on their own caps.

In Texas, we don’t punish people for living out their faith. We protect that right.

Thursday night, the Texas Rangers will host “Faith & Family” Night, where the players are welcomed to share their personal testimonies of faith.

Well said, Gov. How very sad that such plainspoken, common-sensical normality should come across as a tremendously refreshing change, a highly unusual breath of clean, fresh air as compared to the vile, emetic dreck the Toxic Left ladles nonstop over Real American heads each and every day. Or, as Ms O’Connell puts it:

Bravo to the York players, and other players in the MLB who openly live their values and go their own way, instead of bowing the knee to the culture’s demands for LGBTQ+ orthodoxy. The York players get the hat tip this week. They didn’t ask for permission or forgiveness; they just took a stand.

Indeed they did. Pride Month my wrinkled, baggy old ass.

Update! How long can it be before some other ballplayer—most likely no higher than Double A status, possibly Single A or even Legion ball—holds a press conference, flouncing proudly into the room at the appointed hour in women’s clothing, size 17EE pumps, and not nearly enough troweled-on makeup to conceal his coarse, three-day shadow/beard and gaily declare himself a Transpysrsyn who, despite his fully intact courting tackle, has always strongly “identified” as female?

The most heinous injustice of all time?

Schlichter mulls it over.

Savages vs. Civilization
Karmelo Anthony—his first name sounds like some off-brand 99 Cent Store nougat confection—is going to prison for 35 years, and he is relatively lucky. He is lucky he does not live in a society that treats monsters appropriately. A civilized society does not tolerate his brand of sociopathy. It executes such criminals—not only as righteous retribution and not only as an example to others, but as an act of societal hygiene. For a millennium, Europe hanged, beheaded, or otherwise dispatched about 1 percent of its male population every year for various crimes, and you know what? After a while, there were not that many more criminals left. European society was remarkably peaceful as far as crime, if not as far as war. But we moderns decided to go another way. We decided this was too harsh. We decided this was too mean. So, we decided to tolerate nonsense, and it is no surprise what has happened. The kindness to criminals has, inevitably, turned into cruelty to the innocent.

There is a culture clash in America going on between models of public behavior. The primarily European model of public consideration for others is one in which you do not try to dominate public spaces and where you are aware of and considerate of other people who are present. And then there is the Third World model, which we are all experiencing more and more, and we are getting pretty damn tired of it. That is one where interactions in public spaces are a test of power. Can you be obnoxious and get away with it?

We are seeing this a lot lately in various forms. How about the idiots who think it is a great idea to turn on their phones’ speakers and have loud conversations in public? We have reached the point on airplanes where we must remind people that they need to use headphones if they are going to be listening to music or videos. Were these people raised by wolves? Some of them are obviously stupid. Some are retaining the habits of their garbage homelands. But for others, it is a way of showing they are the boss and daring others to stop them. That is what the black father in Brooklyn did when some idiot was shouting into his phone. He told the guy to stop, and the guy murdered him.

These two models of behavior are incompatible. You can either have a civilized society, or you can have a Third World society and everything that comes along with it. For a long time, we have been tolerating Third World behavior. But that seems to be ending. People are calling out this problem, including the racial aspects, which was unprecedented until the left normalized it. Now, the civilized are striking back, and they really do not care if you call them racist because they do not want to put up with idiots acting the fool in public.

In the case of Karmelo Anthony, he decided he was going to be a jerk and go into someone else’s area and dare people to stand up to his crap. Well, Austin Metcalf stood up to him, so he took that as a threat to his manhood and murdered Austin Metcalf without a second thought. That kind of Third World idiocy is endemic to much of the world. And, not coincidentally, where it is endemic, there is poverty, chaos, corruption, and general misery. A society where you cannot discipline yourself to not be a jerk and where you must constantly test all of those around you to prove your own manhood is one that does not go to the moon. Instead, it goes down to the polluted river with a plastic bucket that was imported, because your trash country does not make anything, to get cholera-laden water to carry back to your hut.

We are done accepting excuses. We are done accepting bad behavior. There is no racial debt that must be paid back in the blood of innocents. Those of us of a certain age have seen the coming backlash before, after liberals have normalized and tolerated crime for a while. Inevitably, the tough-on-crime politicians get elected and impose tough-on-crime policies. But what is different this time is that the people are calling this out for what it is. As his supporters have made clear, Karmelo Anthony thought he had a special kind of street code that gave him a free pass to butcher anybody who pointed out his obnoxious public behavior. Well, we reject that, and you can call us all the names you want. It does not work anymore. Some amorphous sense of collective guilt is not going to convince us to agree to being murdered. The consensus is developing that we need to stop putting up with this behavior and start putting people in jail for a long, long time. Now, of course, that is the moderate solution. The real solution is to start promptly executing criminals even as we purge our institutions of this bizarre desire to justify Third World social chaos. Don’t underestimate the potential viciousness of the backlash that is on the way. The thuggish likes of Karmelo Anthony are going to force open an Overton window and are then going to be thrown out of it.

Ultimately, the REAL solution to the problem is to start killing “liberals” in job lots, until so many of them have been exterminated that the remainder is terrified to so much as open their front door to check if it’s raining, because any time they do so a half dozen or so high-caliber bullets come smashing into and/or through it from a long ways off.

Elon Musk, the world’s first trillionaire

Posted on June 12, 2026June 12, 2026 by Mike

Hats off to him for that, and to Glenn Reynolds for this brilliant rip (in bold—his, not mine):

“There shouldn’t be trillionaires” is junior-high-level stuff. We should have people producing trillions of dollars in value for society. The argument that Elon should be spending his money on “feeding the hungry” is stupid in a country where the federal government spends multi-trillions a year on just that, with dubious results. It also betrays either a notion, or a lie, based on Musk having a Scrooge McDuck style Money Bin with a trillion dollars in it. In fact, of course, he owns assets that are busy producing useful things, not cash just lying around somewhere going to waste. Most of the people pretending otherwise know better, but hope their listeners don’t. The rest are just imponderably stupid.

SpaceX’s IPO created 4,400 millionaires, according to the New York Times. Critics like Bernie Sanders, AOC, and Elizabeth Warren have created one each — themselves.

Ayup, that’s about the size of it all right. More from the same place:

Oh, and lest we forget, here’s yet another thing Elon was perfectly a thousand percent correct about (here’s what I had to say about it at the time):

The Little Girl With Knife and Axe Just Gave the System a Final Whack
In August of last year, Lola and Ruby Moire were walking home in a suburb of Dundee, Scotland, and being harassed by the ubiquitous ‘migrants’ who form so integral a part of these United Kingdom stories anymore. The abuse from their pursuers was so intense that one of the girls can be heard warning them off, shouting, ‘Don’t f**king touch her, she’s f**king 12!

Weapons the youngster had in her waistband came out, and she brandished them bravely as their tormentors taunted the little girls.

Tormented, recorded, and then reported them to the police, who arrested the 12-year-old sister for ‘brandishing a bladed weapon.’

The racist former First Minister of Scotland and the current one weighed in. You know they couldn’t resist dissing the dangerous spawn of the filthy working class they despise with every fibre of their beings.

And a note: where our sorry Democrats shriek ‘TRUMP!!’ when they have no excuse and nothing better to say, you will see the British/Eurotrash reaction is ‘MUSK!!’

No specific attacks on Musk are cited—which, given how thoroughly the Brits have discredited and disgraced themselves by now, cannot be taken as evidence that there were none.

Update! And while we’re on the topic of suicidal Britwit folly, there’s also this to consider.

The news is…appalling, infuriating, sick-making, inexcusable, and earth-shaking, but one thing it isn’t is surprising. The revelation that one of the chief financiers of the principal forces arrayed against Britain and the West in general is the British government is all too much in keeping with the suicidal leftism we have seen from that government (whether the Tories or Labour are in power) for years now. So of course they’re funding ISIS. What else would they do? And the rot is even deeper than that.

The Daily Mail reported Monday that the British government “gave more than £28 billion in taxpayer cash to its enemies over six years, a leaked government dossier revealed last night.” And not just any enemies, either. If the British government had really given 28 billion pounds to its enemies, it would have forked over the dough to Tommy Robinson. But instead, the learned solons in London gave the money to their friends. You know, like ISIS.

The Mail states that “terrorists such as the Islamic State in Syria group, hostile states including Russia and criminal gangs received the vast sum from foreign aid, Covid relief loans and the benefits system, which an expert said was an ‘ATM for terrorists.’” And as these things always do, it gets worse. The report “revealed that Britain helped companies linked to the Chinese military pursue their own research between 2015 and 2021.” The Islamic State, Russia, China, and criminal gangs: all on the British taxpayer dole.

How could this have happened? Pondering that question called to mind a phrase I have not heard in decades, since the days when I was a young Marxist enjoying the benefits of an expensive university education: “Inglan is a b**ch.” (“Inglan” is, of course, Jamaican patois for “England.”) This pungent phrase is actually the title of a catchy little song, the handiwork of a Jamaican “dub poet” named Linton Kwesi Johnson, who has lived in the land for which he has such contempt since 1963 (he is now 73 years old).

Given what we know about them to date, how could we reasonably expect such a travesty NOT to have happened, Robert?
