The Morning Report — 5/ 27 /25

Good morning kids. Hope you all had an enjoyable Memorial Day weekend. While it is certainly with sadness and gratitude that we pause to honor and remember all of those who gave their lives in our wars to preserve our freedom. They were, are, and will be the very best that this nation has to offer.

I bookend that thought by noting the passing of one of the worst examples of humanity whose adult life can only be described as a stain and a desecration of everything that every decent American holds dear. With that we bid a sigh of relief as the soul of former congressman Charles Rangel descends to the infernal reaches towards eternal damnation. He leaves behind a slimy trail of decades of venality, corruption, racism and hatred for America and its greatness, and support for its enemies; tyrants and thugs both foreign and domestic who sought and continue to seek our destruction, he being a shining example of the latter, as his long and horrendous dossier at Discover the Networks denotes in scrupulous detail.

If I am breaking with the unwritten rule or convention of not spitting on the grave of a political enemy at the time of their passing, then so be it. Charlie Rangel and his ilk are as culpable in the life and death of the monster they created, George Floyd, and the subsequent wave of domestic terrorism that left dozens of cities in ashes and ruins 5 years ago this weekend to say nothing of the previous decades of racial violence and strife that they and their party fomented all in the name of seizing absolute power and control. All in the name ironically of supposedly attempting to redress the original sin of Slavery and Jim Crow that they themselves were responsible for in the first place. The Democrat/Left is quick on the draw with the "G" word — Genocide. Whether accusing Israel of committing it against the Dark Age barbarians who roast their children alive in front of their parents or the constant drumbeat of the blood libel of institutional white supremacy that has destroyed black America. The only thing that has destroyed black America is institutional Democrat/Leftist supremacy and its destructive policies going back 60 years to LBJ's so-called "war On Poverty" and "Great Society," Of which Charlie Rangel was a Kapo and Enforcer for decades.

SO RIP Rangel. Roast in Piss, and take your whole damned party and movement with you. The sooner the better.

As a palate cleanser, and in stark contrast:

Memorial Day 2025 – Remember Those Who Gave All in Benghazi and Protecting Our Border Glen Doherty. Sean Smith. Tyrone Woods. Brian Terry.

Amazing isn't it how this nation can produce such diametric opposites as these fine men, and at the same time give rise to the aforementioned human excrement Rangel.

Basta cosi. While there are signs of an American revival, culturally and otherwise with the coming of the MAGA movement, The anti-Americans have precious few options except for violence, as we have witnessed everywhere from college campuses, to pregnancy centers, to Christian schools to, GOP offices and Tesla dealerships and everywhere in between.

When all you have to offer is hatred, misery and death, then that's what we'll get. And yet here they are pissing and moaning not understanding why their party is sinking. Here's a clue: It's not the messengers it's the message itself. But to admit that is to bring about an existential crisis, and the Democrats will never allow that.

Rahm Emanuel, an ex-Obama White House chief of staff and former Chicago mayor, said in a Wall Street Journal interview published Monday that the Democratic Party’s brand is “weak and woke.”
Emanuel also told the WSJ that he believes the Democratic Party’s brand is “toxic.” The interview comes amid increasing speculation that Emanuel could be a potential candidate in the party’s 2028 presidential primary, which is likely to be crowded. “I’m tired of sitting in the back seat when somebody’s gunning it at 90 miles an hour for a cliff,” Emanuel told the WSJ.
“If you want the country to give you the keys to the car, somebody’s got to be articulating an agenda that’s fighting for America, not just fighting Trump,” Emanuel told the outlet. “The American dream has become unaffordable. It’s inaccessible. And that has to be unacceptable to us.” (RELATED: ‘Insulted President Biden,’ ‘Insulted President Obama,’ And ‘Fully Embraced Trump’: Rahm Emanuel Blames Netanyahu For Making Israel A ‘Partisan Issue’

Totally clueless. If you claim your "Brand" is toxic, well then genius, define the brand? It's not how you articulate a policy, or more accurately how you lie about what your policy is, it's the policy itself. Shouting NAZI from center stage at a Nuremberg rally while pointing at the smoldering synagogue your supporters just torched is just not going to cut it anymore, chum. More and more people are seeing you and yours as the insane, criminal, destructive perverts that you are and they are repulsed.

Also we have this analysis of the Democrats from the NY Times and they aren't sanguine about the Democrat brand either. Although they too will never admit the real reasons but instead will just make the usual excuses and insult those who are abandoning the party.

And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

Have a great day.

--------

All of these think pieces about Iran or China or Russia or whomever, even ones like this that I certainly agree with, seem to overlook the most important single point. I think because nobody wants to say the quiet part out loud.

It doesn't matter whether a war is the right thing to do or in the American national interest because America is incapable of winning a foreign war. We need to stay out of these conflicts because we will LOSE.

I'd be more comfortable with fighting a bad war and winning it than a good war and losing it. But that's not an option for us.

22 Thank you JJ.

I don’t entirely agree with Michael Walsh on Taiwan… at least for the near term, we need to do as much as possible (short of armed confrontation) to support them against the CCP, while simultaneously moving that chip manufacturing capability here. Once that is accomplished (which could take years) then we could ideally be less aggressive in our stance. But don’t abandon them now…. Ukraine is very different; they have nothing that could possibly interest us…

Obviously, profits for the MIC were important but what if the main goal was death? More people killed, more Americans killed? When did the global "intelligence" system decide to destroy humanity?

The description shows you have completely misread the article, and the situation. Berkowitz, to his credit, is (reluctantly) seeing through Goldberg's BS; you aren't. As the article says, Jonah ignores the importance of prudence, of dealing with the world as it is.

But that has been his MO. He was harsh on Russell Kirk; and it's odd that he's so fond of citing Chesterton's fence, since Goldberg was an advocate of "same sex 'marriage'". The source of "the fence" is GKC's "The Drift From Domesticity", in which those, like Jonah, who want to mess with marriage are attacked.

It is a mistake to rush to splenetic attacks. You often aim in the wrong direction. It is traditionalists who tend to support Trump. Not the fusionists whom Goldberg falsely credits with being the core of the movement.

Did those people really keep voting for Rangel? Or was it the corrupted system in place that keep Rangel in office?

After 2020 I'm dubious about any voter totals on Democrats. I have no doubt they've got numbers, but I also think their turnout in places like this are manufactured because of course they can.

41 The "chaos" surrounding the Democrats is a more dynamic version of the "chaos" surrounding the Republican party. They're both being pulled in directions the rank and file doesn't want to go. And that rank and file will likely win in the end.

For now.

I think, eventually the Democrats will succumb to the uber left while I'm less certain the Republicans will shift to the MAGA right. The Olde Guard GOP has more in common with the legacy Democrats than they do with MAGA. They're effectively the same party, just with different colored pins.

Vietnam was the first war in the history of the world where the losing side never lost a single battle. You will note that it was treason on the part of Democrats and the lying media that resulted in that loss. My personal theory is that Robert McNamara was simply a psychopath who wanted to see how many people he could get away with killing.

========

The activists in the Democrat Party do not see politics as a vehicle for policy. They see it as a vehicle for social change.

And they hate what straight white men hate.

So, if this were about opening borders, or abortion, or welfare payments, maybe they could turn things around with men, but that's not what the activists actually care about. They care about imposing social norms that they create upon the population, so it's going to end up amounting to, "If you dumb incels would stop caring about video games and working out, then you'll be able to have me, a fat slob with green hair. Also, you'd better still have a six-pack even if you don't work out."

78 And, the Democrats' problem is going to be made worse by the 2028 primary.

They're going to have 20 candidates. All but 2-3 of them will have any name-recognition. Fake polls will fly all over the place to elevate some of the no-names. Progressive media outlets will be helping to drive the conversation.

So, you're going to get some no-name governor that almost no one in the state cares about needing to get exposure. They need exposure through progressive media. They need to say things that progressive bundlers and fundraisers will approve of.

It'll be a woke-off as said rhetorical governor decides that the only way to set themselves apart will be announcing a plan to re-educate white men into having sex with trannies. This will lead to a fake poll bump which the leaders will have to react to, and we'll get interviews with Kamala saying, "Of course we need to force straight white men to have sex with trannies for justice."

I get the impatience. I'm one who thinks Bondi and Patel could be moving faster. I do wonder if they're even working on developing cases to drop on the various saboteurs and faceless bureaucrats that have been screwing us over for the last 4+ years. I would not be too transparent about all that, so I understand a lack of info.

I also think that they've stumbled into a real hornet's nest of corruption and some seriously evil shit. There were a few tid-bits that surfaced awhile ago about human/child trafficking within the *biden administration. If so, and it can be proven, and it nets some of the bad actors then I think human trafficking charges against them would be difficult to look over.

And might net some otherwise untouchables.

I think we're taking a step away from my original point:

The 2028 Democrat primary is going to be driven by progressive media preferences.

Whether it's ABC News or videos on TikTok, there's going to be no moderating influence on the primary, driving the party further left and anti-male (my original comment was in response to the Gorillas in the Mist effort regarding men gearing up now), and any criticism from places like FoxNews is going to be used as a challenge to amp things up.

181 A U.S. District judge said changes made to the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act by the Biden administration were ‘unlawful’ and must be removed.
The lawsuit was brought by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), which had originally supported the Act as written and passed in 2023.
The USCCB argued that if Congress had intended to include abortion in the PWFA in 2023, it would have been clear about it when enacted.
The USCCB noted that abortion is not related to pregnancy or childbirth “because it intentionally ends” and “prevents” both.
Another judge ruled similarly last month about the Act, regarding Catholic employers.

182 indivisible.org‬ (BlueSky): The biggest story on June 14 won’t be Trump’s $100 million birthday parade in DC — it will be what happens everywhere else. We’re mobilizing nationwide on No Kings Day with more than 1,000 events planned in all 50 states.

They seem really proud of this dumb strategy to not protest the parade in DC. Do they really think 1000 tiny protests at the local library will even make the news? All while leaving this big juicy unbelievable gift of a parade completely unchallenged?

will someone show up and stand in front of the tanks, Tiananmen Square style?

you want people to be corralled in D.C with however many armed soldiers, tanks, and whatnot are there? It would make Lafayette Park look like a playground.

I want to see a big counter protest to Trump's event. Instead we see people actively discouraging that. Trump would LOVE no protesters at his parade. The cameras will be in DC, that is the protest signs need to be.

I'll be in my state capital. State governments are where it's at. Trump wants a massive demonstration that enables him to enact the "Insurrection Act" and ignore the Posse Comataus Act.

There, Rodriguez rubbed shoulders with "comrades" from pro-Hamas groups and other radical organizations, coming away impressed with their "commitment to actually getting things done," according to a video and an online fundraiser unearthed by the Washington Free Beacon.

Thank goodness the Trump administration is in top of this by.....replacing the Department of Commerce with AI and putting provisions in place to protect AI companies from lawsuits?

Colorado just crossed a line that should terrify every sane, working taxpayer in America. Under a new mandate, residents will now be forced to fund lip injections, cheek implants, nose jobs, breast augmentations, and other elective cosmetic procedures—not for burn victims, not for cancer survivors, but for one legally privileged group: men who claim to be women and women who claim to be men.

256 The money DOGE uncovered as being spent more or less with no oversight? The administration wanted those cuts to be codified into the budget.

The GOP balked.

The whole process will have to be re-run next year to find the same waste, fraud and abuse.

This is one reason Musk left the administration and hasn't committed to a return.

259 Just read the Legal Insurrection article about the dems trying to do outreach to young men. The hilarious part is that Trump took the straightforward approach of talking directly to men. The Left has to have "nuance" in everything.

But if they want to waste $20 million on this endeavor, I won't stop them.

260 Something like:

We will kill you in the womb,
We will kill you in your room,
We will you if you're poor,
We will kill you in a war

its a crying shame that rappers don't give credit to the Tudor-era poet John Skelton for inventing their style of communicating.

Rap is a gangster form of Skeltonic verse.

James Alefantis, the owner of Comet Ping Pong, became a key figure in the Pizzagate controversy. In 2012, GQ included him on its list of "The 50 Most Powerful People in Washington," prompting many to question what made the owner of a small pizza joint so influential in the nation’s capital.

265 Musk wants to go to Mars. Literally, everything he does is to help make that dream possible.

He didn't start a tunneling company to fix traffic in LA. That's a secondary feature. He wants to build a civilization on Mars.

267 The discrepancies in the Social Security figures and the alarming ages of some of the individuals listed have garnered national attention over the last several months.
======================
The article doesn't say, but I assume these were all being issued monthly checks. So eliminating those payments has got to total to a big annual savings number.

Musk is a pretty productive dude, he understands time is the most precious commodity.

If you spend some of it uncovering theft, lies, crime and corruption, only to see the party you are helping renew funding for all of it....well...sunk cost fallacy.

269 The tragedy of not teaching children Aesop's Fables, or those of the Brothers Grimm or because of the requirement for cultural diversity:

270 Trump deserves enormous credit for the introduction of DOGE, but he let it down in the end. He didn't give it the support or attention it needed, that is, the bully pulpit to pressure the GOP to codify its extraordinary results. He treated it as a passing fancy not a historic, revolutionary reform. Musk was correct in his estimation that we could save $2 trillion and ultimately solve the financial crisis with DOGE.

271 Good morning, all, and thanks, J.J.

Thanks for the nice collection of Memorial Day 2025 articles within the CJN News. I'm thankful for the local VFWs and AMVETs in PA still in operation and holding Memorial Day programs, many within the tiny towns that still have the rare, old fashioned parades. Also, the American Revolutionary Museum and Eastern State Penitentiary in Philly as they honor the holiday with a weekend of reflection, remembrance and education. But there's no denying things are continuing to change - and not necessarily for the better - with the general "What's Open Today" vs. history and tribute being of greater interest. BTW, 2 dead, nine injured in Memorial Day shootings in Philadelphia.

272 From above, "Rahm Emanuel, an ex-Obama White House chief of staff and former Chicago mayor, said in a Wall Street Journal interview published Monday that the Democratic Party’s brand is “weak and woke.”

A week ago: His brother, Ezekiel Emanuel, an oncologist and bioethicist who has served both President Obama & President Biden administrations recently commented on Biden's health following the former president's prostate cancer diagnosis.

Feb. 2025, the NY Post, 'Endeavor CEO Ari Emanuel finally a billionaire, sides with Elon Musk in fight for OpenAI'

Though they never strayed far, they're back in the big spotlight and will be formidable in the next Presidential election. imho

🙏 continuing for ALL Hamas & Islamic Jihad hostages.

Good day!

276 I'll never regret leaving the city of my birth (N'Awlins) after Katrina. It's just another Communist shithole city now - and to think we called it 'Detroit South' in the '70s … ha. It's gone way more downhill since then - more downhill than we ever thought possible. But: Y' get what ya vote for … and in some cases, 'voting' is superfluous. Only one friend and a first cousin still live there now - and I doubt if they'll ever move 'cos they're gettin' up in age. At least they'll be able to take advantage of their pre-paid funeral plan arrangements … BFD, eh?
