The Morning Report — 6/ 16 /25

Good morning kids. Hope everyone had an enjoyable Father's Day. On the international scene, it certainly looks as if beyond Iran's nuclear program, Israel is looking to deliver the Qom shot that collapses the Mullahocracy in on itself in its entirety. The IDF has taken out two top Iranian intelligence chiefs and is also targeting the foreign ministry and Defense ministry.

Even if you take Islam out of the equation, whatever lower level government officials and worse elements of the IRGC that remain will rapidly move in to fill any power vacuum. There is no way any sort of moderate elements whether domestic or expat Iranian civilian resistance to the regime will ever be allowed to take control, not that they have the means to do so in the first place. Of course, I imagine even the less hardcore regime elements and officer corps in the military and the lower ranks themselves are more or less committed to ensuring the survival of the regime. I could be wrong about that, but even those in its ranks that hate the Mullahs likely are loathe to be seen as aiding and abetting foreign attack on their nation. Patriotism often trumps common sense and opportunity. Plus, anyone who steps out of line not only risks their own neck but that of their family, such is the nature of repressive totalitarian regimes. Aside from removing the greatest international exporter of global terrorism and the threat of nuclear weapons in the hands of dark age Armageddon-craving Muslims, it certainly would be a wonderful thing to see the long-suffering Persian people return to a relatively free and prosperous society such as they had under the Shah.

The strikes on Tehran’s leadership outposts are likely aimed at destabilizing an Iranian regime that is already on the defensive following Israel's successful opening salvo. That regime could soon face mass unrest if its fragile governing systems break down, and while the hardline government has for years quelled protests against it, the added pressure of a full-scale Israeli assault brings complications."It could certainly be the result because the Iranian regime is very weak," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday after Fox News's Bret Baier asked whether "regime change" was part of Israel's war effort. "They certainly don't have the people. Eighty percent of the people would throw these theological thugs out. I mean, they murder them, they oppress them for 46 years, they yearn for freedom."
The Jewish state has already assassinated more than 20 senior Iranian military leaders, constituting "the entire top tier of Iran’s military command," according to Mark Dubowitz, CEO of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. "This is not just retaliation—it’s strategic decapitation."

Closer to home, this past weekend saw the joyous celebration of the 250th anniversary of the US Army and Flag day. Which coincided with President Trump's birthday, all of which led to these offensive "No Kings" demonstrations, the radiant gall of which was visible clear across the known universe considering the totalitarian proclivities of the traitorous tyrants of the Democrat-Left and the 200-plus year of violence and destruction they have unleashed on this nation in their unslakable quest for absolute power and control.

Well, there were no kings in sight all weekend but there sure were far too many Queens, mostly in drag.

There are no kings in California, just government bureaucrats who were able to rule more ruthlessly than most kings and forbid even the most ordinary average everyday activities like going to the beach or meeting up with family members or going to school.
A king would have been far less onerous than California’s actual rulers. And less corrupt and abusive.
The marchers pretending they were protesting against some phantom tyranny and for some even more elusive freedom were doing the bidding of a vast nationwide network and more specifically the local political establishment that goes back to Gov. Newsom.
A network that spends each legislative session banning new things. Living in California means discovering new regulations and new losses of liberty every legislative session.
And there’s no telling when once again, Californians will be banned from sitting on park benches or going to church or synagogue.
Over the mob denouncing the kings we don’t have while submitting to the ‘czars’ that we do, was the transgender flag. No kings. Only drag queens.

Meanwhile in Minnesota, a political appointee of Tampon Tim Walz has been apprehended in the political assassination of a fellow Democrat and his wife

The suspected assassin had “No Kings” flyers in the vehicle he left behind, the Minnesota State Patrol said.
One of Hortman’s final acts as a Democrat lawmaker was voting with Republicans during a special session in the Minnesota Legislature on Tuesday to approve the remaining pieces of the state budget.
“I know that people will be hurt by that vote, and I’m — we worked very hard to try to get a budget deal that wouldn’t include that provision,” Hortman said through tears when reflecting on being the sole DFL vote alongside Republicans in the House.

Allegedly he's a Trump voter/supporter but frankly I smell a big fat rat here. It looks as if he took sides against the family. The press will do its usual job of not digging very deeply or else hiding any inconvenient facts that go against the preferred narrative.

And then scumbag extraordinaire Ron Wyden opened his filthy sewer,

While investigators were still sorting out what happened in the Minnesota shootings — when the blood was barely dry at the crime scenes, much less cleaned up — a desperate U.S. senator fired a most contemptible shot at Republicans.It wasn't just beneath the honor of a senator, it was beneath contempt. It’s even worse than Minnesota lawmaker Erin Murphy, who just this week — after free health care for illegal aliens was voted down — accused Republicans of “putting a gun to the head” of a woman who, mere days later, was fatally targeted in a shooting carried out by an appointee of Democrat Minnesota Governor Tampon Tim.

the utter chutzpocritical gall of this malignant corpse, considering this is happening in his home state

Rioters stormed a building used by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Portland, Oregon, late Saturday night. The riot took place after an anti-Trump “No Kings” demonstration in the city. At least four officers were injured in the attack, which included the rioters hurling fireworks, smoke grenades and rocks, Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Well, Oregon is screwed, like every other state where Democrats control government for any extended period of time.

Elections have consequences, and so does how people vote. Voting for more taxes, higher fees, and the crazy bills the Democrat supermajority pushes through is costing Oregon thousands of highly-paid citizens who have had enough, and they then leave Oregon for different states. Yet Oregon continues down the same old path to economic disaster. Oregonians cannot figure out that Democrats are all the same; their solution to problems is to raise taxes and fees on everything. For decades, Oregonians have been voting for Democrats to lead Oregon, and nobody noticed that conservatives and Republicans were leaving over economic or freedom issues. The Democrats, Liberals, and progressives just kept on making Oregon less affordable and less desirable to raise a family or retire here.
In 2024, most of the nation moved right to elect Donald Trump President of the United States. Oregon voted to move farther Left, giving the Democrats a supermajority in the state legislature. Once the Democrats had the supermajority, they decided that higher taxes, fees, and other things that impacted people's incomes and families were needed to fulfill their mandates. They raised taxes, and the rental of U-Hauls headed out of Oregon rose along with them.

It certainly seems as if Israel and the Iranian people will Please God, have the good fortune or at least the better than even chance to no longer be threatened by the specter of an evil, totalitarian tyranny while our own nation, in whole or in part might be dragged under by Islam's kissing cousin, totalitarian Socialism/Communism and its black hole singularity/epicenter the Democrat Party.

Time will tell.

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.

31 Appearing on CNN’s State of the Union, Padilla tried spinning his headline-grabbing antics as an innocent attempt to get information. “You can’t script this in Hollywood,” he said with dramatic flair, insisting he just happened to be near the press conference while waiting for a briefing and spontaneously decided to pop in, wearing plain clothes and lacking his Senate Security pin.
=================
Having heard that interview I can only guess this is the most publicity Padilla has ever managed to grab in his political career. What a complete loser that man seems. Exhibit "A" in machine politician rewarded with job he cannot fathom.

We have enough problems on our own with all the trappings of a Failed State: bankrupt treasury, lawlessness, no borders, civil war, etc.

70 After taking office, President Trump directly challenged Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan to stop discriminating against conservatives. “I hope you start opening your bank to conservatives, because many conservatives complain that the banks are not allowing them to do business within the bank. What you’re doing is wrong.”

But instead of ending its political discrimination, BOA launched a lobbying campaign blaming debanking on too much government regulation. Moynihan denied discriminating against conservatives and claimed that the issue was “anti-money-laundering regulations”.

These are mostly Jew-haters who blame them for everything wrong with the world.

They’re neither left nor right, just conspiracy theorists who read ‘The Protocols of the Elders of Zion’ too many times and see Marxism as a Jewish plot to control the world and prepare it for the Antichrist’s rule.

The only reason they hang out at Gateway Pundit is because they hate the Democrats more than Jews and they lightly moderate that forum so these types can get away with posting there.

ZeroHedge’s comment section is filled with the more intellectual versions who are practically Neo-Nazi in their belief system. Anything that goes wrong on this planet can be blamed on the Jews, Israel or America, according to them.

It’s why I avoid both comments sections unless I’m really bored or interested in what the cranks & crazies are thinking about a current event.

The special election was due to a recent change in California law that ended Padilla's appointment in November 2022. He was on the ballot in two separate races in the November 2022 election—a special election for the final two months of Harris's Senate term, and a regular election for a full six-year term beginning in January 2023.

--

I certainly don't proclaim to know any relevant behind-the-scenes info her, but IMO, I wish he wouldn't telegraph what his (and ICE's) intentions and plans are. Maybe he's trying to just keep the public in the know and tell them he's working around the clock to deport illegals. But it also sets them up for violent leftists mobs to patrol those city streets just waiting for the agents to arrive and do their jobs. This hits close to me particularly because, as many know, my brother is an ICE agent.

Too much enmity between the two nations.

They’ll put on a brave face together, for political convenience’s sake, but the Chinese are still pissed about Russia taking over 1 million square miles of Chinese land in the 19th & 20th centuries, including the area Vladivostok is sitting on.

Those two nations don’t trust each other and they are eventually headed for confrontation over natural resources.

The only thing bringing them together currently is that Russia has no choice after starting the war in Ukraine - China & India are buying most of their oil & natural gas at steep discounts.

136 “A self-sustaining Tyranny of the Credentialed.“

That sure covers a lot of ground these days.

Note well the work around the usual suspects provide. They will lament the “anti-intellectualism” of the uneducated. I’m not anti-intellectual, smart people are cool. What we have is a metric crapload of imposters and charlatans, and they know it. They are using a classic debaters technique termed “appeal to authority”. It is insidious and it is something to beware of.

Brain power is not evenly distributed, but everyone can learn the basic logic fallacies that con artists and politicians use to try and persuade. We can’t all be experts in a myriad of subjects, so it is important to have a finely tuned Bullshit Detector. Telling the truth notably never needs an elaborate convoluted maze of contradictions and thought ending cliches and slogans. They usually try to muddy the waters, to make it look deep.

They will tell you it’s really complicated. Often things are quite simple. That doesn’t mean it’s easy. Huge difference. This is how they roll. Because they don’t want to do something, they will claim it can’t be done. And they are just the ones not to do it!

They couldn't say "No More Tyrants" or "No More Dictators" because after Covid Policies they own those titles of Tyrants and Dictators.

And the MAGA types would proudly meme the heck out of casting Trump as an Emperor, so they use "kings" even though UK has a "king" which role is almost all ceremonial, and he is rather harmless.

The question would be, assuming that they are even referring to Trump as "King", which is something that needs to be clarified as to why they are celebrating Independence Day before even Juneteenth, is how is Trump's governing differ from his predecessors.

The trouble in the ME these days is generally either from Iran, or somebody sponsored by Iran, if I'm not mistaken. The fragile Iran regime goes bye-bye, and you finally get peace in the Middle East (thanks to PDT, BTW).

The Canadians got so worked up about it that they called in King Charles III to give them a speech about Canadian sovereignty.

So you can't make this stuff up. The British King comes to Canada, because he's also THEIR king, to talk to them about how they are totally in charge of their own country. And he started his speech by basically saying that they're on land that they're on really belongs to someone else.

100%. This is not a border skirmish, nor is it business as usual as was suggested by some here last week. This is different.

And really, Israel doesn't have to bother with nation building or any of that. The objective is to marginalize Iran into irrelevancy, and they are doing a very good job of it.

Remove the means by which Iran can threaten others, put them in a bubble, and let them stew in internal chaos. That's a workable strategy.

I’m sure a large turnout was had at reliably leftist college towns. Aged out hippies, trustafarians, and the usual whack jobs that will reliably show for any “raising awareness” activities.

It’s the media trying to puff up their support, which isn’t there. Americans like it or not, are overwhelmingly behind the president’s agenda, because it’s ultimately their agenda, that has been ignored for decades.

260 Believe it or not, Qatar has been used as a staging area for IAF supply flights into Israel. A number of transport aircraft have been observed flying to and from Doha and Israeli airbases. Shuttling weapons supplied by the US, among other things.
Posted by: Martini Farmer at June 16, 2025 08:44 AM (Q4IgG)

It hasn’t been popular to say this so far, but very few Americans understand Qatar, when it’s actually quite easy. They’re the descendants of the original Arab camel traders, and they believe in nothing and no one save for their own profit. In every war ever in the Middle East, they are famous for selling weapons and intelligence to both sides, no matter what the conflict is. They will help Islamic terrorists at the same time as selling the US the intelligence needed to find them.
And they *always* end up on the winning side, no matter who is fighting. That’s who they are. Think of the lowest prison snitch ever portrayed in any movie, turn that character into a country and make it rich, and you’ve got Qatar. No morals, no loyalty to anything or anyone, and no shame. Just overwhelming and unending greed.

Containerized weapons, like ballistic missiles, have been observed in Iran, used to launch attacks on Israel. There's no reason those can't be put on a commercial vessel, appearing as just another container ship and get within striking range off either coast.

even Bezos' WP had a huge story on the protests this morning. And Jeff's nose is pretty brown from kissing Trump's ass this year.

Yesterday WaPo had a headline iirc that claimed “Thousands” of Americans were attending the rallies. Not “millions” or even “hundreds of thousands.” Earlier last week they projected “huge crowds” at the parade. What bs.

ARRESTED: VANCE BOELTER IN CUSTODY
They GOT him. Here’s the first photo of Vance Boelter being taken into custody — the man accused of assassinating Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, and attempting to murder Senator John Hortman and his wife.

Police say he was disguised as a cop, wearing a mask and uniform, caught on camera committing this horrifying act.

This wasn’t random. This was planned, targeted, and pure evil.

And let’s be clear: Boelter was a Tim Walz APPOINTEE.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has said that the sudden loss of power at the Natanz Nuclear Facility in Iran, resulting from Friday’s airstrikes by the Israeli Air Force, may have destroyed some of the roughly 14,000 underground centrifuges, which are are fragile and can break if they aren’t shut down gradually. Additionally, an Israeli official said there were indications that the underground portion of Natanz may have imploded, though he cautioned that additional assessments were needed, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal.

368 The game-changer at-work for Israel is its very effective ballistic missile defense system. The Ayatollahs never imagined Israel could shoot-down a significant number of successive waves of IRBMs. They envisioned being able to kill tens of thousands of Israelis and lay waste to Israeli cities, military facilities, and infrastructure whenever they chose. They calculated this to be a sure-fire deterrent to large-scale Israeli air and missile attacks on Iran.

The Third-Stage Rocket Motor for a U.S. Navy RIM-161 SM-3 Block lB Surface-to-Air Missile was apparently discovered yesterday in Iran, confirming that Arleigh Burke-Class Guided-Missile Destroyers with the U.S. Navy, likely stationed in the Eastern Mediterranean, are assisting in the defense of Israel. Now you may wonder how an interceptor missile ended up all the way in Iran. This was likely the result of an SM-3 being used for an exoatmospheric interception of a ballistic missile fired from Iran, during which parts of it fell back to Earth.

OSINTdefender @sentdefender 9h
Footage reportedly from near Nevatim Airbase in Southern Israel during today’s ballistic missile attack by Iran, appears to show a malfunction occur with a surface-to-air missile battery, causing an interceptor missile that had just been launched to break apart and the warhead to fall, nearly striking the launcher. Based off the flight profile, I assess this to likely be either an Israeli Arrow-2 or 3 with it less likely, but still possibly being a U.S. Army Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD).

382 Another interesting switch in the conflict - the new Syrian head of state, ex ISIS leader, announced yesterday that Syria was opening its airspace to Israel and welcomed its efforts to shoot down Iranian drones and missiles.
An extremely intelligent move, he understands how to make a virtue out of necessity. He has no actual ability to keep Israel from doing whatever it wants to do; but with this move he makes Donald Trump, who’s been talking to him, extremely pleased. He just showed that he’s more intelligent than the entire population of Yemen, combined.

Some Arab on X asked “how could he support the zionists?” And I provided the answer: He’s smart enough to see who’s going to win this one, and he realizes that being on the winning side of a war is a lot more fun.

"The decision comes three days after The Inquirer reported on the case of a woman who was held by the county for hours after her $77 bail was paid, then turned over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who were provided time to get to the jail."

And, "Lozano-Alanis was jailed on June 3, after an incident in which she allegedly rammed her car into that of a romantic partner outside a Truist bank in East Norriton.

The criminal charges against her included child endangerment because her son was inside her car. She was also accused of recklessly endangering another person, careless and reckless driving, and driving without a license."
