The Morning Report — 4/2/26

Good morning kids. So a couple of big stories to cover this morning, first up is President Trump last night in an address to the nation about our military campaign against the Iranian regime.

President Donald Trump praised the United States military Wednesday night during a speech updating the American people on the conflict with Iran, but he offered no new details on the operations.
Operation Epic Fury, a military campaign by the United States and Israel, commenced on Feb. 28 after attempts to negotiate a cessation of Iran’s efforts to acquire nuclear weapons failed. During the speech, Trump said that the “core strategic objectives” of the military operations were almost achieved\(RELATED: Trump Halts All Strikes On Iran Power Plants Amid Negotiations)
“As I stated in my announcement of Operation Epic Fury, our objectives are very simple and clear. We are systematically dismantling the regime’s ability to threaten America or project power outside of their borders,” Trump said. “That means eliminating Iran’s navy, which is now absolutely destroyed, hurting their air force and their missile program at levels never seen before, and annihilating their defense industrial base. We’ve done all of it. Their navy is gone, their air force is gone. Their missiles are just about used up or beaten.” “Taken together, these actions will… crush their ability to support terrorist proxies and deny them the ability to build a nuclear bomb,” Trump said. “Our armed forces have been extraordinary. There’s never been anything like it militarily. Everyone is talking about it. And tonight, I’m pleased to say that these core strategic objectives are nearing completion.”
Trump also paid tribute to the 13 Americans killed during the military operation. As of Wednesday evening, seven American military personnel had died from hostile action in Operation Epic Fury, with six others perishing in the crash of an Air Force KC-135R tanker. Trump also blamed Iranian attacks on shipping in the region for high gas prices, saying their actions proved the necessity of the military operation.
“Many Americans have been concerned to see the recent rise in gasoline prices here at home. This short-term increase has been entirely the result of the Iranian regime launching deranged terror attacks against commercial oil tankers and neighboring countries that have nothing to do with the conflict,” Trump said. “This is yet more proof that Iran can never be trusted with nuclear weapons. They will use them, and they will use them quickly. It would lead to decades of extortion, economic pain, and instability worse than we can ever imagine.”
Trump also warned Iran’s current leadership to accept the terms he laid out, saying that if they did not, the United States would target Iran’s energy infrastructure.
“If there is no deal, we are going to hit each and every one of their electric generating plants very hard and probably simultaneously,” Trump said. “We have not hit their oil, even though that’s the easiest target of all because it would not give them even a small chance of survival or rebuilding, but we could hit it and it would be gone, and there’s not a thing they could do about it.”

In the run-up to the speech, there was some speculation that the President was going to declare victory and then cease operations. Considering the President has deployed a third carrier to the theatre and is demanding the Iranian's adhere to a ceasefire, and they've responded by flipping a Farsi firebird in his direction, I'm not so sure that Peace is at hand, as old Henry Kissinger used to say about Vietnam.

The other huge story was the President's truly historic visit to the SCOTUS during testimony about the abomination of the utter bastardization of the 14th amendment he has attempted to end via executive order.

Yes Kentanji Brown-25 Jackson is an imbecile but a very dangerous imbecile because of her anti-American racialist fueled leftism.

Worse is the wishy washy two-faced Amy Coney Island whitefish Barrett.

The progressives’ threat that “millions” of people could lose citizenship amid legal chaos seems intended to give swing-voting judges an excuse to kill Trump’s order that bars citizenship to illegal migrants.
The prospect of chaos was raised by a swing-voting judge. “It could be messy,” said Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a conservative who has voted with progressives.

When even the Wiseass wide-ass Latina sounds logical by comparison, maybe it's a good sign we might witness a miracle that birthright citizenship will at long last be tossed.

Elsewhere, we shot a black dude into space to orbit the moon. Yay, us...

Have a great day!

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

AMERICA & ISRAEL STRIKE IRAN!

Iran’s military threatened on Thursday to launch crushing and destructive attacks on the US after President Trump declared Operation Epic Fury an “overwhelming” victory in an address to the nation.

Trump made the announcement in a Truth Social post on Wednesday morning, writing, “Iran’s New Regime President, much less Radicalized and far more intelligent than his predecessors, has just asked the United States of America for a CEASEFIRE!” Trump said, however, that the U.S. will consider a ceasefire after the Hormuz Strait is “open, free, and clear.”

. . .if the justices harbor any consideration of keeping the 14th Amendment migration train running by upholding the current bastardization of the amendment, it will signal to the American people the illegitimacy of even the highest legal authority in the land, ostensibly with a 6-3 conservative majority. A SCOTUS decision to uphold birthright citizenship as currently applied
would communicate that it means to follow in the footsteps of successive presidential administrations and Congresses, selling Americans’ jobs, land, and promises of freedom to the highest bidder, or simply giving them away to foreigners who cross the border illegally.

41 Lifetime appointments to the Supreme Court was probably a mistake. Some people mellow with age, others radicalize. Many are appointed to a position they're totally unsuited for.

And yeah, Trump had and has a real issue with whomever is suggesting and vetting some of his administrative picks.

And as to "sunlight being the best disinfectant", I used to take that view. But then the leftists started showing up at private citizens' homes when they found out those citizens had backed the wrong side.

127 I'm late today so probably already mentioned... but why do our esteemed SCOTUS judges have a hard time with the words "... subject to the jurisdiction thereof" and they seem to struggle with the (to me) straightforward concept that the meaning of those words hasn't changed since the amendment was written even if some judges in the past were idiotic?

And why does "potential chaos" have anything to do with what these words mean???

Imbeciles....

133 There is so much fog around the phrase 'subject to the jurisdiction thereof' that the supremes can basically write the meaning of this however they want regardless of what the writers and voters of the amendment believed it to mean. In 1866 no one probably envisioned that there would be mass invasion by foreigners that are in the US illegally, or that foreign visitors would do 'birth tourism'. If they did they probably assumed that future citizens and the three branches of the government would agree with them that the children born of these foreigners aren't citizens because the language of the amendment is clear.

But the majority of the supremes want children of illegal aliens to be citizens so that's what they will rule.

166 Life imitates art:

Within hours of launching four astronauts on NASA's Artemis 2 mission around the moon, its crew reported a glitch in what may have been the most anticipated new creature comfort of their Orion spacecraft: their space toilet.

"The toilet fan is reported to be jammed," NASA spokesperson Gary Jordan said during live mission commentary. "Now the ground teams are coming up with instructions on how to get into the fan and clear that area to revive the toilet for the mission."

Norm Knight, NASA's director of flight operations, told reporters here at the Kennedy Space Center that the malfunction was due to a controller issue on the toilet. But NASA confirmed astronauts could still use the space commode to poop, just not urinate, though engineers were working to restore it to full service.

215 I'm going on the record

'Birthright citizenship' stays
5-4, maybe even 6-3
you can say you knew me back when, when it comes down
--
This isn't an attack on you just ....
When people say the media doesn't have power, this is the anti-proof.

They've so saturated the coverage on this, so overwhelmed all discourse, that pretty much everyone, even conservatives are in a gloom the issue is lost.

This is not the court that created gay marriage--this is the one that overturned Roe.
This is not the court that denied TX v. PA--this is the court that overturned Chevron.

Look at all the recent rulings: None of those point to a court afraid to make major rulings, even against decades and decades of "it's always been this way."

To grant cert, there had to be 4 votes.
4 who say the current reading is wrong (or needs clarified).
(Unless you want to assume one of the 3 liberals wanted to risk the Court hearing the case?)
4 votes in favor of something less than now; unlimited automatic citizenship.
3 in favor of keeping it the same.
1 who will rule it must change but the EO is wrong.
1 who will rule it it must change but not retroactive.
=
6 votes ending BRC + new EO needed

So I'm wondering, if a Russian couple has a child in Houston and then wants to return with the child back to Russia, whether Texas can say, hold up, you can't take a vulnerable US citizen back to a 'hostile' Russia. Parents sue Texas and win in US Supreme court (maybe even getting Russian consulate involved) and remove the newly minted US citizen back to Russia. Was the child ever 'subject to the jurisdiction' of Texas?

295 NASA space toilets have a long history of not working when a design is first used in space. Why Orion management did not simply copy the ISS toilet design is beyond me. Other than LockMart padding its profits by convincing a dumb NASA manager to let them design a new toilet, my best guess is the Astronaut Office demanded some better features and performance than the ISS toilet. If so, and I believe it to be so, the four crew are getting the crappy result of what previous astronauts demanded. I can't help but laugh.

296 Sam Alito bashed in birthright citizenship case: "Alito is arguing that foreign impressment somehow undermines our sovereignty and the Constitution," noted constitutional law professor Anthony Michael Kreis. "The Founding generation would throw rotten food at him in the streets for such a statement."

He votes to spite Democrats bc he like Trump is fueled by bribes and hatred. We need to stack the courts and make these maga traitors irrelevant.

The argument that things are different today so we can ignore the Constitution would not be a good precedent to set for preserving the 2nd Amendment.

Alito may vote against trump on this one. At one point, Alito was stating a position favorable to the ACLU's case. The ACLU atty misunderstood and pushed back until Justice Barret chimed in to clarify what Alito was saying. Then, the ACLU atty relented and agreed that the Alito statement was correct.

I’ve said this before on this forum and I will say it again: I know people who know Alito from church. Every single one of them says he is and always has been a pompous asshole. I repeat: these are people who know him from CHURCH.

The 2024 National Defense Authorization Act bars the president from suspending, terminating, or withdrawing from NATO without authorization.

Now... I wonder why the Republican held Congress felt the need to pass that legislation in 2024.

310 New DNA testing has definitively linked the unsolved death of a Utah teenager in 1974 to the infamous serial killer Ted Bundy, the local sheriff’s office said Wednesday.

Laura Ann Aime, 17, went missing Halloween night 51 years ago after she left a party alone to go to a convenience store. About a month later, her body was found by hikers on the side of a highway in American Fork Canyon. Aime was bound, beaten and without clothing. Authorities said the evidence indicated that she had likely been kept alive for several days after her abduction.
