The Morning Report — 3/9/26

Good morning kids. As the conflict continues, and the Iranian regime continues to get its ass kicked, there are some mixed signals from Tehran and DC.

First, President Trump has stated our position clearly to the enemy as to what it will take for the bombing to stop:

For those at home and abroad who don’t know what to make of President Donald Trump’s talk of “unconditional surrender” from Tehran and how the next supreme leader is “not going to last long,” allow us to translate: He expects Iran to find leadership that isn’t committed to an insane Islamist agenda. That is, one that won’t seek nuclear weapons and ICBMs, sponsor global terror (including efforts to assassinate him) or work to impose Islamist puppet governments across the Middle East — all at the expense of the long-suffering Iranian people. Call it: Make Iran Normal Again.

And the response from Iran seems to be a giant flipping of the bird at President Trump;

The news of Mojtaba becoming the next Supreme Leader of Iran comes after President Donald Trump told ABC News that the next Supreme Leader of Iran would “have to get approval” from the United States, adding that without approval “he’s not going to last long.

And then there's this item which does not exactly fill me with confidence:

Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump suggested the possibility of a ground operation had not been ruled out, saying U.S. forces could move in at a later stage of the conflict if necessary. “Right now we’re just decimating them, but we haven’t gone after it,” Trump said, referring to Iran’s nuclear material. “But something we could do later on. We wouldn’t do it now.”

The context here was not a full-blown ground offensive but some sort of limited special ops mission to secure the nuclear material. Even still, and I'm no expert, I have to believe this would require a large number of personnel as well as aircraft and perhaps ground vehicles. Oy. Even if successful, the fact that Khameini's son would become the next fuhrer with much of the previous Nazi high command still in power, Israeli Air Force bunker busters notwithstanding, how much longer can this go on. Unless a non-Islamic armageddon-seeking Muallahocracy takes control of Iran, my fear is that all of this will have been for naught.

And yet, we are on the cusp of a great realignment thanks to this President.

In calling for unconditional surrender, Trump is seeking not just regime change. He seeks the destruction of the Islamic regime that has held Iran in its fearsome grip since 1979, when the Ayatollah Khomeini flew in from Paris to commence his theocratic reign of terror. Richard Falk, writing in The New York Times, cheered the event, predicting that Khomeini would show the world what “a genuine Islamic government can do.” I agree that Khomeini did just that. But I reckon that all the bodies he had hung from cranes did not exactly fulfill Falk’s expectations. . .

Meanwhile, halfway around the world in the Western Hemisphere, the Communist dictatorship in Cuba is entering its final days. The daring extraction of Nicolás Maduro from Caracas at the beginning of January cut off Cuba’s supply of oil. Most of the island has been without power for days. Riots have erupted in Havana. “Down with Communism” is the refrain. On Thursday, Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel said that he is open to talks with the United States on “any issue” in order to build “a civilized relationship between neighbors” that is “mutually beneficial.” In Costa Rica, President-elect Laura Fernández says that she wants to work with the Trump administration to confront organized crime in order to avoid becoming ridden with drug cartels in the way Mexico has been. “Mexico, for me, is a reference point for where we don’t want to end up.” As I write, Trump is meeting in Miami with El Salvador president Nayib Bukele, Argentina president Javier Milei, and other Latin American leaders at the Shield of the Americas ceremony. The goal? First, to crush the drug cartels that have been poisoning Americans for years. Second, to stop the flow of illegal immigration to the United States. Third, to work together to forge mutually beneficial commercial and security relationships.
. . . It is difficult to keep up with Donald Trump’s dizzying pace. Since January 20, 2025, and with ever-increasing velocity, he has been stuffing decades into weeks. I don’t think there has ever been anything like it in American history.

Indeed. President Trump in both his terms, both domestically and in foreign policy has succeeded in overturning the tables of he money-changers in the temple, so to speak. At the barest of bare minimums he has exposed the hypocrisy and charade of the professional political class and done what he could, almost singlehandedly to attempt to reverse course.

Ah yes, Meanwhile in CUBA indeed! . . .

Federal prosecutors in South Florida are preparing a comprehensive investigation into numerous government officials who oversee the communist regime that controls Cuba. The United States Attorney for the District of Southern Florida is spearheading the inquiry, which is focused on uncovering evidence tying Cuban Communist Party officials to allegations of drug, immigration, economic, and violent crimes, with the aim of allowing the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to bring swift indictments should the regime fall.Notably, the investigatory actions in the office of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Southern Florida come as President Donald J. Trump ramps up pressure on the Cuban government to abdicate its rule and transition away from the communist ideology imposed by the island’s late dictator, Fidel Castro, and subsequently enforced by his brother Raúl Castro. Since the removal of Venezuelan narco-dictator Nicolás Maduro from power earlier this year, Trump has contemplated action against Cuba, which maintained close ties to the Marxist regime in Venezuela. The U.S. President has even floated the possibility of military action against the communist island once current hostilities with the Islamic Republic of Iran conclude.The case being built by U.S. Attorney Jason A. Reding Quiñones in South Florida could provide pivotal legal and political justification for potential Trump administration actions against Cuba. As part of the effort, Quiñones has formed a working group that includes prosecutors from his office, agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), as well as the Treasury Department, the State Department, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF).

¡Hay Caramba! (Listen closely to hear the sound of Fredo Corleone and Hyman Roth packing their bags in a hurry!)

Have a great Day!

72 I heard Mike Waltz, not to be confused with Tim Walz, speak about the possibility of sending troops into Iran to retrieve nuclear material. Waltz is a decorated Army Special Forces veteran so he does know a bit about the subject.

He said if the US did send in troops they have special forces teams trained specifically to retrieve this type of material and it would be a large team, just the opposite. Nobody wants to see troops on the ground fighting a war against Iranian troops but if it's a limited mission with a specific goal like retriever nuclear material I'm not as concerned, particularly since I know Trump is not going to put idiotic rules of engagement on our troops.

It's a measure of the power of propaganda to ask a young person about Richard Nixon and the Vietnam War.

They seem universally have the idea that Nixon either started the war or escalated it, when in fact he was the one who got us OUT of Vietnam, and the troop numbers actually peaked under Johnson.

In addition to the 14 people who got sick, 112 other individuals have been isolated in connection to the outbreak, according to Escobar.

“There has been nothing but crisis after crisis inside the walls of this tent city," the Democratic congresswoman said in a statement.


So, I'm betting her solution would be to simply release all of them into society so they could infect Americans at a MUCH higher rate then they could in detention.

In calling for unconditional surrender, Trump is seeking not just regime change. He seeks the destruction of the Islamic regime that has held Iran in its fearsome grip since 1979, when the Ayatollah Khomeini flew in from Paris to commence his theocratic reign of terror.

We're not going to get "unconditional surrender." Not with 100K or more IRGC running around Iran with their collective fingers on lots of triggers. Missiles, aircraft, boats, drones, etc.

It's going to take a lot of soldiers on the ground to wrap that up so the public can reconstitute whatever government they see fit. Otherwise, it's just more of the same, a revolving door for the mullahs.

Even with modern hospitals around 1 out of 1,000 children who catch measles will die.

Without access to modern medical treatment the mortality rate can be 5-10%, depending on how well-nourished the child is.

It's not "part of growing up".

I saw some infographic by a pro-clot shot org showing trust in RFK by various healthcare NGOs dropping since he joined the Trump admin.

And the odd thing is they handle that as "now they see through him!" but since RFK hasn't changed his views in years the more obvious answer is these hacks don't like him because now he's actually DOING the things he could only talk about before.

Michigan Democrats are putting dead voters BACK ON the voter rolls after they are removed

After the dead people are added back, THEY ARE MAILED BALLOTS

Michigan Rep Rachelle Smit “I took off a dead voter in my township and guess what? That dead voter was put back on”

“There was a family member who at one point was registered at my in-laws home, and that family member had died nearly 20 years prior. They were put on the rolls at 2020. They were mailed voter application ballots without the authorization”

As of March 2026, Hungary is severely affected by a halt in Russian oil imports through the Druzhba pipeline following a Jan 27 damage incident in Ukraine. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has accused Kyiv of a blockade, threatening to halt diesel to Ukraine and blocking EU aid in retaliation. Hungary, heavily dependent on this cheap Russian crude, is seeking to restore flows while facing an energy crisis. (Ref: Reuters and four others)

(In the meantime)
Hungarian authorities detained seven Ukrainian state bank employees and seized two armored vehicles carrying approximately $82 million in cash and gold ($40M USD, €35M, and gold) on suspicion of money laundering, amid heightened tensions over a blocked oil pipeline. Ukraine accused Hungary of taking bankers "hostage" in a politically motivated act of blackmail. (Ref. Reuters and two others)

When she died years later the mayor at that time was kwame kilpatrick and he wouldn't even allow the former mayor to speak at the service! He, of course, ended up in jail, but compared to the "show" Kwame put on, the Jessie Jackson service was tasteful.

341 339 Lot of saboteurs including Pence and they had him hamstrung from Day with the Russia op. This term was supposed to be derailed by Epstein but he swatted it away.

Sessions folding like a cheap tent the second the Dems pulled out their blackmail material was probably the worst.

343 32 Like or dislike Jackson, he deserved better than that.

I have said many an unkind thing about the man but it's still sickening that the people in attendance could not keep their poison to themselves.

👍 Absolutely.

Don't know or care one iota about the O's marriage but at least Michelle O will not bend to being in the company of those she seems to find offensive. Right or wrong, it's principle.

And while Slick Willy and O are bores and narcissists, Biden is undoubtedly senile and dangerous. That brain and that mouth are uncontrollable in any public setting and Jill Biden, who sat in attendance at the funeral, knows that and should have begged off their attendance.

FOX, 'Biden says ‘I’m a h--- of a lot smarter than most of you’ to crowd at Jesse Jackson's funeral'
---
She's a stupid woman. Period. Then the 2 witches, good pals, Hillary & Harris, sitting & smirking together.

(See) Facebook - Essence, featuring Harris' speech:
"At Jesse Jackson's funeral, Kamala Harris reminded us that progress has never been polite. ..." (More.)

Hillary loves when the fires are stoked.

Good catch for you to bring up Rosa Parks and the later part of her life, too, in relation to Jesse Jackson's funeral.

She deserved better and it was a good thing she received some aid.

Assistance with Housing: Following the attack, it was not a mayor, but rather Federal Judge Damon Keith and Little Caesars pizza founder Mike Ilitch who stepped in to help. Mike Ilitch quietly paid for her to live in a secure apartment (Riverfront Towers) for over a decade, from 1994 until her death in 2005. This was done in private and not made public until after both passed away.

My memory is not comprehensive, but it seems like that was one of the first weaknesses displayed, and maybe it got the ball of obstruction rolling.
