The Morning Report — 7/14/25

LepreRosie.jpg

Good morning kids, Happy Bastille Day, Le Quatorze Juillet en Francais. All things considered, here's an item that is both heartening and frightening in its implications for where we are as a nation and society.

Video posted to Facebook appears to show a woman plow through anti-ICE protesters Saturday in New Jersey, injuring three, and is now facing charges, according to police. The videos shows a gray SUV slowly approach a crowd of protesters marching against ICE raids when a one protester approaches the driver. The woman behind the wheel, Linda Roglen, then begins to proceed and the protester falls to the ground while others gather around to stop the car. Roglen then rolls up her window and drive through the crowd and leaves the scene. (RELATED: Los Angeles ICE Riots Cost City $20 Million — And Counting)

Roglen has been charged with careless driving, reckless driving, leaving the scene of an accident and four counts of assault with a car resulting in bodily injury, according to the New York Post. Several protesters suffered injuries and one was taken to the hospital, News 12 reported.

The protest was organized by a group called “United Against Fear,” according to the New York Post. Several witnesses described the scene, with one man saying “I don’t know what they said, but they just say something to each other and he spits in her face.” “I was scared though, honestly, like for those people. Because you never know, man. Something like that, you could die. That’s scary,” the man added. . . It is unclear if the man who allegedly spit on Roglen will face charges.


Let's see. New Jersey? I wouldn't bet on it.

Across the political left, from orthodox Democrats to Antifa in the streets, the opposition to President Donald Trump has lost its collective mind.

there is the so-called “left-wing Resistance” and the street mobs’ descent into violence and terrorism.

Sometimes, thugs ambush ICE agents.

Sometimes, they firebomb Tesla dealerships.

Sometimes, they attack federal buildings, shut down freeways and pelt patrol cars with concrete. They continue with impunity because they know the Democrat Party cannot and will not censure them. . .

Finally, the left is outraged that so far, the Trump counterrevolution is working. . .

. . . Add it all up, and the impotent left in all its orthodox and street manifestations has become unhinged. And why not when it rightly fears that not just its power, but the very sources of its power, are in mortal danger?

From my perspective, it's not so much that the polices of the Trump counterrevolution are working, and so far they are firing on all cylinders. It's that their success underscores and puts a gigantic spotlight on the decades of abject failure and disaster of Leftist/progressive/socialist/Democrat policies. To me that is the mortal danger and existential threat to Democrat power and influence going forward. This is the golden moment of opportunity that potentially marks the sea change in the culture going forward that puts America on the path to restoration. And erasing the "long march through the institutions" that got us to the brink of destruction.


This is why we are seeing the ugly naked violence against ICE and the cops as well as the gleeful mockery of Christian children swept away and drowned in torrential flooding in Texas. Rejection is a hell of a thing to deal with, especially among those who view themselves as the absolute moral authority of this nation, and who view those who have rejected them – that is all of us! – as evil and an existential threat not only to them but to democracy, the human race and even the planet itself.

The Democrat/Left are playing with fire, but given the fact that the have targeted law enforcement yet need them at the same time, it remains to be seen who in the end is going to get burned.


Two years after BLM rioters picked up $6 million in damages because the police officers trying to stop their rampage didn’t wear face masks, Democrats are trying to ban law enforcement from wearing face masks. California state senators are introducing a bill to make local, state and federal law enforcement personnel, especially ICE, wearing face masks into a crime.

In two years, the Left has gone from demanding face masks to trying to outlaw them. . . The real purpose of masks at public events is to conceal the wearer’s identity and to intimidate the public. That is why rioters and Hamas supporters wear them. Especially while committing crimes. ICE personnel wear masks because of a rise in doxxing and attacks against them. The Left is trying to ban masks now to enable the stalking and threats aimed at ICE employees.

Masks are another form of power. And the Left seeks to preserve any and all forms of power as its exclusive privilege under the pretext of various forms of victimhood and identity politics. When the Left set out to protect mask wearing by rioters, it claimed that regulations, first imposed to fight the KKK, banning mask wearing in public discriminated against the disabled.

Only last year, the pro-crime activists at the Marshall Project claimed that antisemitic rioters should be able to wear masks to protect their privacy against the police and Jewish groups. The pro-crime organization cited the example of the participants in the Boston Tea Party. But while rioters and terrorist supporters deserve the right to be protected from “harassment”, law enforcement officers putting their lives on the line to stop gangs, terrorists and cartels don’t.

And as we recognize the anniversary of the French Revolution, it comes also on the on-year anniversary of the attempt on President Trump's life in Butler, PA


It’s been one year since President Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. The gunman, Thomas Matthew Crooks, missed Trump’s head by an inch—a bullet grazed his ear while he was speaking at a campaign rally.  It could have been much worse. 
Though Trump obviously survived, the attack did result in the death of 50-year-old firefighter Corey Comperatore and injured rally attendees. 

It’s strange that we still know so little about Crooks, his motives and what exactly happened July 13, 2024. Conspiracies swirled in the immediate aftermath about whether Crooks was somehow involved in an “inside job” or perhaps coordinating with enemies abroad. Those all resulted in dead ends. 

Even now, questions about Crooks still abound: Who was he? Why did he attack Trump? Did he really act alone? What about the Secret Service’s role?

And with all of that, there's this:

Police in San Antonio arrested a Texas man Thursday night after he allegedly threatened to assassinate President Donald Trump. The alleged threat was made in a Facebook post, where the man reportedly wrote, “I won’t miss.” San Antonio police officers arrested 52-year-old Robert Herrera for threatening to assassinate President Trump via a Facebook post. The threat happened three days before the first anniversary of the attack that nearly took the then-presidential candidate’s life.

I like the crime of "leaving the scene of an accident".

I think that was the point, to flee for her life from the ironically named terror group: "United Against Fear"

And it was NOT an accident. They approached the car to assault her and maybe worse.

CBS?

I know the current mission statement of the FBI is to destroy evidence, serve the wealthy perverts and terrorize good people, but CBS is all about gaslighting and smears.

CBS doesn't currently have the staff nor skills to perform honest investigatory work. They can slut up a terrorist like they did Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and the murderer Luigi Mangione to make pin-ups out of them.

There are going to be AWFLs who want to date Crook's corpse. (except the FBI promptly cremated that too)

30 In more humorous government protest news, Ukrainian men are now sending the locations of Ukrainian military "recruitment centers" to the Russian military and asking them to target them with drones and missiles.

With forced conscription snatching teenagers and old men alike off the street to serve as cannon fodder, it seems the citizens of Ukraine have turned to Russia for assistance in saving their lives, and Moscow has answered their cries for help.

Modern western expertise, this isn't just an American problem, is nothing more than ideological bullshit with some letters after the author's name.

With the, possible, exception of the hard sciences, any study which searches for objective truth and expanding knowledge which might run afoul of political diktats will fail to be rewarded with the extra letters. And then you will have spent year, and a ton of money, for nothing. So you regurgitate the same spew as everyone else to get your gold star and call yourself 'expert'.

44 Further into the Air India report, a yout*be analyst indicated that seconds after lift off, the voice recorder captured one person (pilot or first officer) ask "Why did you turn off the fuel?" or similar comment.

The data also suggest at least one engine restarted and could have reached adequate thrust to continue flying if the incident had occurred at a higher altitude (ie more time to spool up).

They are also trying to tie the fuel cutoff to an unrelated service bulletin for 2018 about possibly faulty switches on a 737. It's gotta be Boeing's fault, they have the money to pay.

The claim you will likely receive is that she trafficked them only to Epstein himself.

So if that narrative is correct, apparently it was just Prince Andrew and Epstein that engaged in these activities.

Well, and Alan Dershowitz, who has ruthlessly targeted by the young girls, when all he wanted was for someone to scratch that one place on his back he couldn't reach.

Sort of like asking for independent, disinterested third party confirmation of the existence of God.

Anyone that wishes it to be Russian propaganda, would find any source to the information to be "unreliable".

Anyone that thinks it to be true, would find the same sources to be reliable.

Anyone independent and disinterested wouldn't be monitoring the situation closely for independent verification, and were such people to exist and give an account, they would be quickly accused of belonging to the first or second camp.

There are no disinterested third parties in the truth.

This is exactly what Trump did. He's been speaking to the working class for 8+ years and has won them over. The difference between the two is that Mamdani's pie-in-the-sky socialist fever dreams of improving the lives of the working class will never happen. Trump has already benefitted these people and will continue to do so. Socialism sounds good to historically ignorant people. But it never pays off and it never will.

127 So if that narrative is correct, apparently it was just Prince Andrew and Epstein that engaged in these activities.

I've mentioned this before but some people haven't heard, I guess.

Prince Andrew has never been accused of having sex with a minor. He was sued by Virginia Giuffre of "knowing that she was being trafficked and not rescuing her". Lots of people throw out that he was a client of Epstein based on nothing more than the emotional rantings of other people who also don't know anything.

130 Sometimes, they attack federal buildings, shut down freeways and pelt patrol cars with concrete. They continue with impunity because they know the Democrat Party cannot and will not censure them. . .

The only way this stops is when high ranking leftist leaders, likely Dem office holders, go to jail.

The Epstein list doesn't exist because reasons. The 'files' provided to SM 'influencers' by the WH contained nothing but previously available information. The FBI in the form of Bongino and Patel are at odds with DoJ. The issue of Epstein and his activities is a distraction from the good things that are in progress or that have happened since DTS started his second term. There is a massive investigation of the deep state underway and it's about to get real in a few days. It that an accurate summation?

Hearsay at this point. Plus, if they can't do the small things, what makes you think they can do the big things?

The FBI and the entire Babylon DC system is Ukraine levels of total corruption. They would rather send out a division of FBI agents to stand around a sniper scene in Idaho, or a battalion out to a popular NASCAR event to investigate a rope-pull, or troll the parking lot of school board meetings to harass and arrest concerned parents than to actually investigate their spouses, friends, family and neighbors who are all part of the Deep State corruption.

>>So I'm not quite sure what they are "investigating."

They are investigating a conspiracy to stop Trump from getting elected, 3 times, and using the intel community to do it. The premise that Solomon is describing is that everything from the cover up of Hillary's email server to the Russia hoax to the attempt to rig the 2020 election to Jack Smith were part of the same conspiracy.

Whether they can prove that and will pursue it remains to be seen but I don't think there are many here who don't believe it's true.

So, unfortunately the only real refugees we take in should be hand picked, like Trump with the SA people.

If people don't like that they can help us remove the tens of millions of illegals, end H1Bs, and finish integrating the current legal immigrants and after a decade or so of no immigration we can start to talk about real refugees again

The government has actually done a pretty decent job in collecting information on flood plains and giving them rough designations as to how often they flood.

But everyone from developers, to the government, to the media, then just pretend those areas won't flood at some point, just because they probably won't flood this year or the next .

Again, not true. If it was in fact one big conspiracy as Solomon is alleging then they were discreet acts, they were all part of the same conspiracy. And the statute of limitations for the entire conspiracy starts ticking after the last act of the conspiracy.

If they can show that Smith was part of that conspriracy then in theory everything that was done to stop Trump since 2016 is in play.

Several of these sorts of cases where normies defend themselves against leftists have gone to the courts now.

It seems the expectation of the courts is that Joe or Jane Normie has to be fully aware of all local and state regulations, as they are being attacked, and and derivation from those regulations will get you prison time.

It is absurd.

ICE can beat up and kill anyone they want. Accuse their victims of anything to justify it.

No longer a country of laws when a wannabe king decides who can overpower whom. We are at war, make no mistake.

What about Americans? Can we protect ourselves by any means? My oath to the constitution says I MUST.

Trump is actually declaring his own type of Martial Law with that statement. When they murder people, he'll pardon them a second time, since there are likely many Jan 6 criminals who joined ICE.

California can pass their own laws and then arrest and detain ICE members and put them in jail for violating the law.

Why they dont do that is beyond me.

So the Democrats decided to go with the crazy gossip columnist, E Jean Carroll, who said that Trump molested her in a department store dressing room, in the previous millennia, so long ago that she forgot when and it traumatized her so much that she had to wait decades and her therapy was to keep it all public in memoirs, interviews and bull shit court cases.

Ever more frustrated because the Leftists currently have no hope Trump gets impeached and thrown-out, or tried and imprisoned.

Short of assassination, the Left sees nothing it can do to remove Trump from office. There is nothing in their hope jar to equal Russia, Russia, Russia! impeachment, quid pro quo impeachment, classified documents crimes, inciting rebellion on J6 crimes, conspiracy to subvert the 2020 election in Georgia, or all the imaginary charges against him in New York. He was convicted in both New York trials but came away free and solvent. No more "The Walls Are Closing In!' all day everyday in the Lapdog Media.

Again, there is no reason not to expose who and what Epstein was.

He's apparently fallen for the stock line from these dipshits that if Epstein is exposed then sources and methods would be revealed and people will die.

Again, you can't go from, "We'll expose it all, to "nothing to see here, now go away and STFU."

This is never going away and the more they try to make it go away the worse it will become.

Typical BS from the UN and Doctors Without Borders with made-up scare statistics bemoaning the fact that the U.S. has withdrawn $4B of US taxpayer money from international programs that allow sub-Saharan sodomites to continue spreading HIV via the usual routes. Not really worth reading except maybe for this:

PULL QUOTE: funding disappeared "...in January, when U.S. President Donald Trump ordered that all foreign aid be suspended and later moved to shutter the U.S. AIDS agency."

U.S. AIDS agency? The link given in the article goes to an article about the defunding of USAID. Apparently the writer of this article thinks the US Agency for International Development (USAID) is fighting HIV.

The expectation is with death as a possible outcome Trump/ICE will step back.

And they are used to dealing with the GOPe for whom this sort of stuff works.

295 I'll never accept that minor children were sex trafficked to no one.
Posted by: rickb223 at July 14, 2025 09:17 AM (+bLMA)


Maxwell was convicted of trafficking minors to Epstein who, personally, abused them. Lots of other people claim to know things - but won't say anything about them. Lots of other people claim to have been abused - but won't say by whom.

Feel free to not accept. Maybe there's truth we haven't been told. Maybe, someday, it'll come out. I suspect not.

311 If Pam Bondi had played the Epstein case a little more low-key she wouldn’t be taking as much heat as she is right now.

But she wanted to get on FOX and showboat about it and now her words have come back to haunt her.

She also jumped the gum early on and set the pattern with the screwed up release of already known information to Trump influencers online.

If she’d have kept mum until after she had reviewed everything then there wouldn’t be so much disappointment going around leading to anger and claims of a coverup.

I’m not saying she should be fired but I do hope she’s learned a valuable lesson here.

329 Trump's Title IX crackdown puts schools on notice: no more men in women’s sports -- or risk losing federal funds, as UPenn learned with its $175 million wake-up call.
Title IX and Trans Athletes: Victories and Stand Offs as Trump Perseveres -- Bravo!


From the article:

No sooner was Biden’s bad Title IX regulation redefining “sex” to include gender identity blocked by federal courts than the absurdity of transsexual athletes took center stage: Trump addressed the issue back in February with his Executive Order, Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports, which states, “It shall … be the policy of the United States to oppose male competitive participation in women’s sports … as a matter of safety, fairness, dignity, and truth.”

This does not seem to be a long-term solution to the "gender identity" issue. Unless 2020 SCOTUS case Bostic v Clayton County is overturned, "gender identity" will continue to be a protected class under federal law, since a future President will just reverse President Trump's Executive Order.

Today marks 4,000 days since Hadar Goldin was taken.

In the final moments of a ceasefire during the 2014 Gaza war, Hadar was ambushed and abducted by Hamas. Since then, his body has been held in Gaza, used as a bargaining chip, denied the dignity of a proper burial, and kept from the family that has fought every day to bring him home.

It’s time to Bring Hadar home.

Money ≠ Education

About thirty years ago I read that a state (Arkansas ?) used an algorithm to determine how many prison beds the state would need in ten (?) years.
One of the elements of the algorithm were with grade math scores.
