The Morning Report — 6/ 17 /25

CrabRaskin.jpg

Good morning kids. Well, the beat goes on with wars, and rumors of wars. Both abroad and even here at home as Israel continues its campaign to degrade if not completely destroy Iran's nuclear weapons infrastructure and as is now apparent, take down the regime itself.

Incredibly and miraculously, The Israeli air force and special forces have evidently been so successful that the regime supposedly is now crying uncle and is ready to negotiate some sort of settlement in order to stop Israel from taking them down. They want to reman in power both for the sake of remaining in power and staying away from the blast radius of an Israeli bomb or from dangling by the neck from a lamppost courtesy of a long abused and oppressed citizenry. And lest we forget, that Iran is ruled by hardcore Muslims whose goal is the eradication of every Jew and un believer on the planet and the latter's complete transformation as planet Islam. So as history has shown us time and again, and as the Arabic word and concept Taqqiya tells us, they are not to be taken at their word. They will do whatever they can in order to regroup for the next assault on Dar al Harb to bring it by force into Dar al Islam.

Whether Trump sees this or not, he has signaled that the G-7 proposal to allow monitoring of Iran's nuclear program instead of calling for its dismantling is a total non-starter, as it should be.

President Trump has stated unequivocally that Iran cannot be allowed to have nuclear weapons so that raises the question and red flag of how he intends to prevent that from happening. He is of course right but as I, being an ardent supporter of Israel and America, feel strongly that our direct involvement of troops on the ground and/or the deployment of the Air Force would be a disaster.

While Israel has done an amazingly effective job, so far as we can tell, places like the Fordow facility are deep underground beneath a mountain, and the only way to take those out is with heavy ordnance delivered by heavy bombers or missiles capable of delivering a payload that can collapse steel reinforced concrete and stone maybe a half-mile thick. Well, that or deploying tens of thousands of troops to storm the facilities with a direct frontal assault.

Trump has in fact directly warned the people of Tehran to evacuate the city. Is something afoot or is this just him throwing a giant tootsie roll into the swimming pool.

President Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Monday to declare that Iran “cannot have a nuclear weapon” and that people should evacuate Tehran. . . “Reports of Iran’s eagerness to end the fight came as Israeli fighters attacked regime institutions in the capital city of Tehran, including the state broadcaster, after achieving total dominance of Iranian airspace,” it added.


On that note, for those Iranians who were glued to their sets . . .

Israel hit an Iranian regime-controlled television network on Monday, another example of the Jewish state's broadening of its campaign against the Islamic Republic
Israeli warplanes struck Iran’s state-controlled broadcaster on Monday, causing an explosion that scattered debris live on television and forced an anchor to hurriedly flee offscreen.


If only a bomb drifted off course by a measly 10,000 miles or so and hit MSNBC as Banjo Boy Scarborough and his concubine Mitzi Baryshnikov were doing their daily polishing of Al Sharpton's sewer lid medallion. Oh well, just a thought.


Elsewhere, if anyone wants to understand why Israel is doing what it's doing. . .

Jihadi gunmen murdered at least a hundred Christians in the Nigerian village of Yelewata, central Nigeria, on Friday night, the latest in a long string of bloody attacks on farmers by the violent Fulani herdsmen. . . “Many people are still missing, aside dozens injured and left without adequate medical care. Many families were locked up and burnt inside their bedrooms. So many bodies were burnt beyond recognition,” AI Nigeria wrote.

It's not necessarily about Iran and nuclear weapons. or about Israel and Jews. It's about Islam and what it has wrought all over the world for the past 1500 years or so. To think you can negotiate with that, or that they want the same things we do; peace, security and a future for their children. Remember that these are the same people who have children for the express purpose of turning them into guided bombs, draped in C-4/Semtex laden belts and vests ready to detonate themselves on buses, inside pizzerias and fly airplanes into skyscrapers, as their ticket to paradise.

Meanwhile, in the good old USA . . .

60 years after the two Columbia professors outlined their plan to turn America into Cuba or the Soviet Union? They published their manifesto in the leftist publication, The Nation, in 1966, which I will summarize.  

Cloward-Piven’s objective is chaos and turmoil, or in their words, “A massive drive to recruit the poor onto the welfare rolls.” This is followed by: “A federal program of income redistribution has become necessary to elevate the poor en masse from poverty.”

Is there a better recap of COVID, including lockdowns, closed businesses, schools, and churches, which required the ruling class to spend trillions of dollars they didn’t have to rectify the damage and destruction unleashed by the same ruling class that then tried to correct it?

In Cloward-Piven terms, a crisis is: “A publicly visible disruption in some institutional sphere.” How do they create such a crisis? “Crisis can occur spontaneously (e.g., riots) or as the intended result of tactics of demonstration and protest which either generate institutional disruption or bring unrecognized disruption to public attention.”

Last week, Los Angeles became the epicenter of the Summer of Cloward-Piven. Protests escalated into riots, causing property damage and assaults on law enforcement. These events were hardly spontaneous. Pallets of bricks arrived at strategic locations. Posters had been printed and were ready for use. Shock troops were mobilized, often through help wanted ads on Craigslist, generously paying “peaceful protesters” to burn cars and smash windows.

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.

In Florida, the driver would be protected by law for engaging in self-defense. “If you’re driving on one of those streets and a mob comes and surrounds your vehicle and threatens you, you have a right to flee for your safety,” Florida Gov. DeSantis said last week during an interview. “So if you drive off and you hit one of these people, that’s their fault for impinging on you.”

Willowed:

I’m convinced most of these ‘regular’ people with severe TDS are basically news junkies who can’t turn off CNN or MSNBC and still believe everything shovel of shit they’re getting from the talking heads on their TV.

If, from whatever side of the spectrum you're on, if politics is affecting your relationships with other people, don't discuss politics with them and politely them from discussing politics with you.

And turn the TV, phone or computer off. I've become a believer in subsidiarity. Try to make your own little corner of life peaceful and productive because, really, that's all you can reasonably be expected to affect.

32 Old Yeller makes some good points, but there is a difference between isolationism and sending in the Army all over the place

It's not the 19th Century. We cannot be totally isolated. We should, however, be discriminating in our foreign entanglements, parsimonious in our foreign funding, and restrained in our comments about foreign relations not directly impacting the US.

Israel is worth supporting, generally, and against Iran, specifically, although we should never shy away from critically examining what Israel does, as a nation, and how it impacts us. If Mark Levin wants a Y2K robust American military policy then I recommend he enlist.

Almost all computer operations are now automated where typing commands into a keyboard or selecting an icon will trigger a massive automated process to do something or a initiate, guide a workflow.

We are now even getting deeper into predictive engines and its sister technology, suggestion engines where for many people they let the computer influence and guide the user to grant permission to do something already decided.

136 Persia’s original major religion. It’s one of the oldest religions with one god, possibly older than Judaism.

So when did Judaism first become defined? We had the Adamic Covenant in the Garden shortly after the Creation of the entire Universe. Unless one argues into the Eternity Past, its hard to get a more temporally older faith system.

The Epistle to the Hebrews dates the earliest examples of the Messianic faith to "Abel", a second generation human being.

If Judaism's "Origin" is the application of the Mosaic Law, then perhaps Zoroastrian precedes. If one goes back to the Abrahamic Covenant, dittos, since we know Abraham was observing another faith prior to the Theophany.

It is where you set the marker.

"Best" is a subjective word. "Best" could also be the Republican that brings in the most campaign money and distributes it most effectively for alleged Republican ideals. That would make McConnel the "best" Republican.

I divide the Republicans into three groups:
• those actually performing the rape
• those holding down the victim
• those standing by and videoing the rape.

Cornyn is either doing the rape, or holding down the victim, Cruz is trying to get a good angle for his video.

144 update on the West Chester "no kings" weirdo that my boy Officer Greg snagged before he could do anything untoward ...

so the dude - no carry license - strolled into town with a rifle and mags, dressed oddly like a policeman (which is what alerted Greg)

anyway he was arrested by the brave West Chester PD and then of course allowed bail and somehow came up with $25 grand and was out like THAT!

the WCPD wasn't done tho. last night they got a warrant and searched the dude's house.

lots of little "projects" going on. pipe bombs!

---------------
Yep. It was the state religion of Persia. It is the first 'guilt' religion until joined by Christians. It postulates the arrival of the Saoshyant, a Messiah. Half man, half God. Some, like myself, see it as the forerunner of Christianity. The religion centers around the teachings of the prophet Zoroaster (Zarathustra) and the belief in one God, Ahura Mazda, who is the creator and the source of all that is good. Zoroastrianism also emphasizes a cosmic struggle between good and evil, with humans playing a role in this battle through their choices.

Finally. Thank God. He's not interested in a ceasefire. He's not interested in kicking the can down the road. He's not interested in the world having to deal with unstable, genocidal "death to America" types having the capability of destroying whole cities.

Most of all, he's not concerned (I think) with earning plaudits from a morally bankrupt ruling class whose entire existence hinges on maintaining the status quo.

158 So when did Judaism first become defined? We had the Adamic Covenant in the Garden shortly after the Creation of the entire Universe. Unless one argues into the Eternity Past, its hard to get a more temporally older faith system.

The Epistle to the Hebrews dates the earliest examples of the Messianic faith to "Abel", a second generation human being.

If Judaism's "Origin" is the application of the Mosaic Law, then perhaps Zoroastrian precedes. If one goes back to the Abrahamic Covenant, dittos, since we know Abraham was observing another faith prior to the Theophany.

Nolte: Trump Enjoys Majority Support from Black and Hispanic Voters

"Over the five polling days between June 8-12, Rasmussen surveyed 1,772 likely voters and found that Trump enjoys an overall 53 percent job approval rating. This includes 54 percent approval from black voters and 53 percent support from Hispanic voters. White voters come in at 53 percent. I don’t think I ever remember a Republican president enjoying a higher job approval rating from black voters compared to white voters.

"A total of 59 percent of men approve of the job Trump is doing, compared to 49 percent of women.

"The Democrat Party has become the party of white, wealthy elites, primarily emotionally unstable and neurotic white women who can easily be convinced to believe in anything but God."

The Democrat Party has become the party of white, wealthy elites, primarily emotionally unstable and neurotic white women who can easily be convinced to believe in anything but God.

It's a poll of "likely voters." The way they determine who's "likely" is based on old turnout and will mostly miss new voters getting off their asses. White Non-College is the largest cohort at 35% and Trump won in 2016 and 2024 because they had higher than expected turnout. Pollsters missed this, but I didn't. White Non-College still has plenty of room to grow turnout. Trump will also draw more from Hispanics and Black men.
The D party is on a bad trajectory that will only get worse. They have Obama to blame as he drove working class white out of their historic home in the D party.

Trump will campaign in 2026 like he's on the ballot, and in a sense he will be. He'll tout actual gains he's made for working people. Especially job gains from his policies which will have kicked in by election day 2026.

Trump will primary bad GOPe Congresscritters.

Then why does Christianity loudly claim and adopt all of its origins to the Old Testament starting with the Adamic Covenant? How would Christianity get is original cast of evangelists from Jews?

While Zoroastrianism copies principles originating from the foundation of the Earth, and has the concept of spiritual renewal, orthodox Christianity (not the Big Box Free Will DIY Salvation variety) exclusively traces spiritual regeneration from God Himself (via the Paraclete). That in of itself is revolutionary and distinguishes it from every other religion.

So we just forget about Joel 2:1-2, Isaiah 13:9; Daniel 12:2, Malachi 4:1, I can go on.

All of this is covered in the OT and is not borrowed from Zoroastrianism.

The U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security, chaired by Maryland Republican Congressman Mark E. Green, and the Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability, chaired by Oklahoma Republican Congressman Josh Brecheen, opened an investigation on June 10 into the USCCB and Catholic Charities over the organizations’ alleged use of taxpayer funding to assist illegal aliens since the start of the Biden-Harris administration. The USCCB and Catholic Charities have long been accused of aiding illegal immigration.

He did tried to do that at his ceremony, but it failed because not even his supporters showed up, much less demonstrators. He must be feeling pretty puny today.

Gen. Erik Kurilla,

Commander (June 10, 2025): "It is estimated that current stockpiles and the available centrifuges ... are sufficient to produce its first 25 kg of weapons-grade material in roughly one week and enough for up to ten nuclear weapons in three weeks."

---------------
That analysis is from the IAEA describing Iran's nuclear program. It's one of the reasons why Israel moved when it did. It also suggests that there are "materials" in Iran's possession that are highly toxic, radioactive. And we know several of Iran's nuclear sites are deep underground.

I would presume they'd need to be dismantled. Because there's uncertainty about the ability to reach and then destroy, completely, some of the deeply buried facilities.

Or, go inside the ones unreachable by current weaponry and destroy them from within. Which might be "The Plan™".

As Deportations Rise, The U.S. Is On Track For The Lowest Murder Rate On Record

Murder rates are plummeting. While we still have more than half a year to go, Kash Patel, the FBI’s director, says that the U.S. is on track to have the lowest murder rate ever. The current record low occurred in 2014 when the FBI reported a murder rate of 4.45 per 100,000.

The question is: why? Law enforcement matters, but it is probably also that Trump is deporting criminal illegal aliens. . . .


Saw 'state of crime in Denver' presentation by then police chief in 2022. The gist of it was: almost all crime happens in 5 hotspots, and by the same people dang.
Now, if ICE is quickly deporting these key repeat offenders in every major city that are here illegally? Voila!!

Essentially, it seems like illegal, under market labor is there to support industry players that would have otherwise died out because of competition.

Meatpacking can be done with minimal manual labor. It just requires a very large capital investment in the modern technologies. If you're only limping along because you're essentially breaking rules to minimize cost without updating equipment...you're a company on the bubble anyway and should probably be met with some creative destruction in the marketplace.

This reminds me of Trump's first admin, where jobs started coming back, but countless millions had left the workforce, discouraged, during the Obama years, and they aren't counted as unemployed. So the unemployment numbers were super low. You could even legit say that low Trump numbers were partly due to Obama - because he drove so many out of the job market. Using their own tricks against them.

With THIS stat, Blue cities stopped reporting murders, so now as the murder rate drops it's supposedly the lowest ever. Yeah, it's undoubtedly lower, but they're undoubtedly STILL not reporting a lot of it, so I'm not so sure the REAL number is the lowest EVER.

345 Saw a picture of a supposed fighter jet shot down by the Iranians. If you're to believe the photo with all the people swarming around it, the plane was the biggest f*cking thing ever to fly.


It was quite hysterical.

I saw that one too. Also the ground around it looked completely undisturbed. Seems like it would have to slide to a stop. Unlikely that it fell straight down and just stuck there.

347 That's terrible:

On Friday, the only door that opened was the one back to his cell.

Mahmoud Khalil, Columbia’s most litigious Gaza sympathizer, had seemingly triumphed in federal court—only to find himself right back where he started.


Down in Louisiana, where the alligators grow so mean.

After days of breathless media coverage and a headline-generating injunction questioning the legality of Mahmoud Khalil’s detention, Judge Michael Farbiarz quietly reversed course.


In a terse, two-page order, he declined to release Khalil after all. The reason? The government had landed on firmer legal ground: Khalil allegedly lied on his visa application. And under the law, that alone is enough.

So much for the First Amendment showdown.
So much for judicial scrutiny of Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s motives.

No need for sweeping declarations or a walking tour through the mind of Laurence Tribe. . .

348 There's a lot of faked imagery coming out of Iran. Short videos of AA fire taking down what they claim is an Israeli warplane is actually footage from DCS.

358 FBI Director Kash Patel dropped a bombshell Monday evening, handing Congress an intelligence report that raises serious questions about China’s role in the 2020 election. According to the report, Chinese operatives mass-produced counterfeit U.S. driver’s licenses as part of a broader scheme to flood the system with fake mail-in ballots—benefiting… you guessed it… Joe Biden.

361 Nothing to add on Zorastrianism, founded 6th century BC, monotheistic, not usually aggressive and murdery... Many think the Three Wise Men were Zoroastrians.

But interesting to note that the alternate pronunciation of Zoroaster is Zarathustra, as in the symphonic piece.

Barack Obama on X
Thirteen years ago, my administration acted to protect young people who were American in every single way but one: on paper.

DACA was an example of how we can be a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws. And it’s an example worth remembering today, when families with similar backgrounds who just want to live, work, and support their communities, are being demonized and treated as enemies.

We can fix our broken immigration system while still recognizing our common humanity and treating each other with dignity and respect. In fact, it’s the only way we ever will. · Jun 15, 2025

369 In 2016, Ted Cruz addressed a group of us in NYC (FOA East). We were then mostly his supporters in the campaign, and he got a rock-star welcome.

Then he started talking. He said we need to shut down illegal immigration (cheers, applause). THEN he said, "We need to fix our broken immigration system, and raise the Legal immigration quota from 1 million annually to FIVE MILLION." (Silence, dismay)

That's where I spied 'im, there's where I smelt him out. Not a fan since then. Because if you run the numbers on that insane idea, America would be overrun by aliens in five years.

372 If we believe that Iran can't get nukes then regime change is the only game in town, isn't it?

Give the IDF the time, bombs and ramp up the 'Mullah's out' talk and see what happens first but eventually the rewards might outweigh the risks on this one, especially if the Israeli's clear the way.

373 There are other ways to take out the Fordow facility besides blasting through 3,000 feet of rock.

- There have to be surface points of ingress & egress, and for the ventilation system to work. Block those, and you'll entomb and suffocate the folks working down there.

- Tossing out Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his gang could open up the facility for (very interested!) third parties to see to its dismantlement. Ought to cave the thing in, too, just on GP to keep it from being used again.

Infiltration to the facility, since Israel seems to have seeded quite a few agents and sympathizers across the whole of the regime, would also work. Remember Stuxnet? That alone could disable the whole plant.

And probably a few others that I'm not bright enough to imagine.
