The Morning Report — 8/ 20 /26
Over next month’s Labor Day weekend, Michigan Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed is to speak at a conference that will platform a rogue’s gallery of Islamic extremists. The conference in Detroit is the 63rd annual convention of the Islamic Society of North America, a Muslim Brotherhood affiliate that was an unindicted co-conspirator in the 2007-28 Holy Land terrorism-funding trial. Other speakers among a plethora of Islamists include Siraj Wahhaj, a former ISNA vice-president who was himself an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Wahhaj, who has called for the full application of sharia law including amputation, stoning and the execution of gay people, makes no secret of his aim to Islamize America. He has said: “You don’t get involved in politics because it’s the American thing to do. You get involved in politics because politics are a weapon to use in the cause of Islam.” Another scheduled convention participant, Zaid Shakir, has said: “If only Muslims were clever politically, they could take over the United States and replace its constitutional government with a caliphate. If we put a nationwide infrastructure in place and marshaled our resources, we’d take over this country in a very short time.” . . . Two decades ago, in 2006, I published my best-selling and pioneering book “Londonistan,” which described how the British establishment — politicians, government officials, even security and counter-intelligence officers — were submitting to the steady Islamization of Britain. . . In particular, they refused to acknowledge the threat posed by the Muslim Brotherhood’s strategy of mass immigration and of using the democratic process to infiltrate extremists into political positions. They failed to take seriously the jihadi strategy of demonstrating power to gain power. . . . Several states are trying to ban or restrict Sharia law. In Texas, state leaders are opening investigations into Muslim institutions and attempting to block the development of huge Muslim enclaves. But much more needs to be done. Britain offers the starkest possible warning of the frog being slowly boiled in the Islamist pot. Time is ticking. Wake up, America.Well, what's Green and Red and is for sure not Christmas?! Here's that Red part coming at you!
Florida’s Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) Senate candidate Angie Nixon has a history of making outlandish statements throughout her political career, including praising a Marxist cop killer while campaigning in a church, calling for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies to be put back in place, and admitting to taking her children to drag shows, referring to them as “wholesome” entertainment.
This freakazoid is not a one-off. This is boilerplate tame stuff from the heart of the heart of darkness that was, is and always has been the Democrat Party.
They will embrace any madness at all if they perceive it will help them gain and maintain anything that gets them to their goal of absolute and permanent power.
Several Democratic Socialists of America-backed congressional nominees are traveling to Uruguay this week to join a left-wing international conference aimed at opposing President Donald Trump’s foreign policy in the Western Hemisphere. New York Assemblywoman Claire Valdez, New York activist Darializa Avila Chevalier, and Pennsylvania state Rep. Chris Rabb — all three DSA members who won Democratic congressional primaries this year — will attend the Pan-American Congress in Montevideo as “special guests” of a congressional delegation led by Reps. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) and Jesús “Chuy” García (D-IL). New Jersey Democratic congressional candidate Adam Hamawy, who is not a DSA member but has embraced many of the same left-wing causes, is also attending.
And so, Red and Green unite... at least until we get to the next big Olympic sporting event, the homosexual roof toss!
It is amazing how the leftists all over the Western world have managed to overlook Islamic teachings on homosexuality. They paid little attention to the homosexuals who are killed and hung on cranes in the middle of Iranian cities. They did not notice how ISIS, both in Syria and In Iraq, routinely threw homosexuals off the top of rooftops. They ignored how homosexuals in the Palestinian territories in Gaza and the West Bank are subject to severe societal discrimination, harassment, arbitrary arrests, and physical abuse or torture by local security forces and militant factions, including Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.And meanwhile back over there in Latin America...
Iranian state media revealed on Tuesday, using it as an opportunity to promote Iran’s war against the United States and demand diplomatic and economic support... In addition to marking 100 years since his birth, 2026 will soon mark the first decade since Fidel Castro’s long-anticipated death in November 2016.The timing is perfect with all of this, because Iran perhaps if not on the ropes is in serious shape to the point where maybe President Trump's bluster might actually be accurate insofar as the regime could be at long last facing a real existential crisis. We shall see.
Trump likened the operation to “an ECONOMIC D-DAY” that will require “our Allies to stand with the United States of America to isolate, and defeat, the Iran threat.”Well then, the question is... Why was this not done weeks ago if not on day One when the first bombs fell? perhaps the war might've been over on Day Two, or what am I missing. Oh well.
For sure the reason the Left is going nuts in Latin America is because all of the socialist Communist regimes are tumbling down like so many dominoes... and now at long last perhaps the worst of the worst might be finally set to take a fall, CUBA?! How glorious would it be should that tropical Commie gulag finally taste freedom after 66 long horrible years? Leftist heads everywhere would explode! No wonder all the DSAniks have gone down to boost the Latin American commies! And the final Commie domino could very well be our very own homegrown commies, right here on our own soil!

Minimum Wage Hurts Poor Workers, New Study Finds
It also hurts people who've climbed up the ladder so that they're no longer making minimum wage. Raise the minimum wage 50%, the price of everything goes up but other workers don't get a 50% raise. People on fixed income don't get a 50% raise. Meanwhile, some union workers get a 125% raise.

They don't WANT TO. They'd rather play footsie with Iran to poke us in the eye because we're better than them, and they know it. As all the WC (water closet? no, world cup vids from their peons) have laid bare for all to see.

Miranda Devine: Jon Ossoff’s disgustingly sly and sexist attack on Trump aide Natalie Harp backfires big time
=================
Did it? I certainly hope so. This was one of the more cynical and amoral political stunts I can recall.
The end of Ossoff's 15 minutes is way overdue. C'mon Georgia, do us a solid.

Back in the day, I thought "1984", along with "Escape from New York" and "Escape from L.A." were implausible, laughable science fiction.

* breaks out my pom poms* I will be a cheerleader for how this war has been conducted. Bessent was crashing the rial starting in late 2025 and that is what brought millions of Iranians to the streets. The IRGC and the mullahs have been stashing cash throughout banking systems all over the world. The bombing took out steel and petrochemical production as well as military assets to advance the economic collapse.

Today, the Trump administration announced sanctions against two International Criminal Court (ICC) officials, President Tomoko Akane of Japan and the ICC’s senior trial lawyer, Abdoulaye Seye of Senegal. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called the organization “corrupt and fatally politicized.” This follows Rubio last month setting the proverbial cat among the pigeons, declaring his intentions to “dismantle” the ICC — urging other nations to join the effort. Rubio launched the campaign, vowing to employ “all the tools at our government’s disposal” to “dismantle the ICC, brick by brick.”

While it's possible that Karmelo Anthony will be the first ever successful appeal against that judge, I suspect that his removal is just a means to shut everyone up a little bit. They've still got to find something about which he ruled incorrectly and all they're going with is "he enforced the court rules more than we wanted him to".

Good morning Horde, thx JJ. Hope you and Mrs JJ are well.
A reversal of the Chauvin verdict would be very welcome and the attorney has a good argument. Of course the courts could find the issues raised on appeal were raised "too late". However these are constitutional issues which are able to be raised at any time.
A reversal would cause an explosion in blue cities easily rivaling the initial Floyd riots. Too bad it won't be decided before November

How is it a backfire? Democrat voters know that every accusation against Trump for the last 12 years is a pack of lies. They don't care. They just want something to stick... it never does, and they always say "good try. Would have worked, too, if it weren't for that meddling truth. We'll get 'im next time."
As for Harp - LOL. Karen hates MAGA women passionately. They're affluent white women who are working with the enemy... she's just another Auntie Tom to them.
I guarantee GA Dems loved this stunt and this hardens their support, not softens it.

Is it a lynching when one hangs oneself? Self-lynching? The guy did it to himself in all ways possible. His history was a lie and he offed himself when exposed.
Kendi, like many other hustlers and hucksters, want a blank check written for any other black person. They can do what they want, lie about what they are, commit crimes big and small and they should be overlooked and excused because of this figment of oppression. I doubt many people buy that anymore.

Could there be a bigger, better, more lurid example of the clusterfuc*king villainy of the centralized government/corporatist (Socialist) alliance?

If they let that murdering savage out of prison for killing that other kid, that poor dad of the victim needs to take matters into his own hands and help the murderer and his family exit the planet stage right.

Given that said savage's parents have treated him with contempt even though he tried being polite, I agree. And he needs at least 100 people saying "He was with me when this happened."

And “at one point in time the FBI maintained over 40 Confidential Human Sources that provided criminal information relating to Joe Biden, James Biden, and Hunter Biden.” Sources familiar with Round River also told The Federalist “that the investigation sought to scuttle any investigative leads into Biden family corruption by discrediting it as Russia disinformation.”

Folks need to chill a bit. Anthony's lawyers are requesting a new trial - as is probably normal. The original trial judge stated, following the trial, that "the jury got it right", which is what we assume in our system but another judge ruled that this could provide the appearance of bias so the trial judge was removed - I'm also seeing the word recused used so he may have stepped aside himself - and a senior judge has been assigned to rule over the motion for a new trial.
That's all that's happened.

I wonder if Derek Chauvin will ever get out of prison. Examples must be made. If ever there was injustice in the justice system, it was what was done to this guy. In the slimmest of glimmers of hope, if he ever does get out, cities will burn, and he will have a target on his back for the rest of his life. There are a lot of people who belong on the gallows for what was done to this guy.

Congress took the opportunity to use Covid as an opportunity to fund massive do-nothing pork barrels. It seemed there was a time there when every appropriations bill was a trillion dollars.
Consequently we got the hideous inflation spikes.
Those "affordability" shocks caused people to clamor for more socialist "free stuff."

According to Google AI, Minnesota does not require a grand jury for cases not subject to the death penalty. Only a prosecutor complaint is the minimum to indict. Chauvin was charged in MN state court (I think), so I'm not sure what his lawyers are arguing unless the charge included the death penalty.

One may as well ask why we didn't land in France in 1942 and save a bunch of time?
Because military/economic operations have to happen sequentially. You can't just skip to the good part.
One thing that really bugs me is how otherwise sensible commentators on the Smart Military Blog think that there is some sort of "easy button" for military operations and the failure to push it is because the people in charge are stupid or something.
Anyone who has studied the Gulf situation in depth is absolutely AMAZED at how well we are doing. Casualties are basically on the level of high-tempo training accidents, and instead of $200/bbl oil and world-wide recession, it's basically Biden in 2023. Manufacturing continues to expand, domestic oil production is climbing and all the treasonous media can do is print anonymous claims that we're out of munitions and parrot Iranian propaganda.
Oh, and Iran is winning because total economic collapse and losing 50 years worth of military hardware is a victory.

Later today we have a follow-up with the surgeon. The biopsy of the breast tissue showed it was a very aggressive kind of cancer, but also that it did not spread. Looks like we got all of it, and because we caught it early, chemo may not be necessary.
They also know the exact kind of cancer and there are treatments that target it specifically, which is pretty cool. Praise be to God!

Ukraine is hollowed out, and the losses or disappearance (to another country) of men leads to a demographic turnover.

It is amazing how the leftists all over the Western world have managed to overlook Islamic teachings on homosexuality. They paid little attention to the homosexuals who are killed and hung on cranes in the middle of Iranian cities. They did not notice how ISIS, both in Syria and In Iraq, routinely threw homosexuals off the top of rooftops. They ignored how homosexuals in the Palestinian territories in Gaza and the West Bank are subject to severe societal discrimination, harassment, arbitrary arrests, and physical abuse or torture by local security forces and militant factions, including Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
And devout leftoids are FINE with this as long as the murderous cult 'feels included.'

Former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin says that the charges against him were "illegal" and that his trial was a "fraud."
Hennepin County District Court Judge Peter Cahill presided over a year-long due process violation by failing to convene a grand jury to consider the State’s evidence at any point between the moment he was assigned to the case, and the verdict. He lacked jurisdiction over the charges, as this Court does, because they were never lawfully brought.

I still think that televising regular episodes of "Carnival Cruise Riot" would be a ratings boom for ESPN.

They also know the exact kind of cancer and there are treatments that target it specifically, which is pretty cool. Praise be to God!

Huzzah! Cancer treatment, particularly for breast cancer, has made huge strides over the past couple decades.

I call them 'orthodox.' They're the most violent. The ones that aren't actually violent, support the violence and use their lies to gain trust and spread so the violent offspring can do the dirty work.

USAID is shut down. I'm betting that's where a lot of the money was coming from. Also, we're several years worth of "watch the Carnival Cruise riot" videos beyond where we were in 2020.

The vibe I'm getting now is less "Spanish Civil War 2.0" and more "Asturias Uprising 2.0." Those of you who have already read Long Live Death know that before the July Rising when the center-right governed Spain, there were several Anarchist uprisings, the worst of which was in the Asturias and had to be put down with regular army forces.
If the GOP holds its ground (or gains it - looking at you, Michigan), I expect there will be violence on the part of the left. The "vials of wrath" have been filled to overflowing, but without USAID and other funds, it's going to be less organized and less effective.
Also: Trump's people are running traces on the finances of these organizations and RICO charges may be coming before that. Remember that timing is everything, and you don't drop the good stuff until after Labor Day.
The FBI 'fednapping' broke long-standing policy as well as several laws. Turnabout is fair play.

This recusal in the Karmelo case is not as big a deal as they are making it out to be. Recusal in a review of the same case is not uncommon; any judge will have to find an actual Error of Law that was made in order to allow a retrial, and I don’t see one.
It’s almost amusing that the defense’s claim of “bias” came because after it was over, the Judge said publicly “I think the jury got it right”
I would only have been worried if he’d said that he thought the jury got it wrong, but it’s a reminder that officials in high profile cases should never, ever make any public statements at all.

"133 It is amazing how the leftists all over the Western world have managed to overlook Islamic teachings on homosexuality. "
It's a case of an overriding interest in the destruction of America. The Islamist determination to destroy is simply too great an attraction to the Left. Being emotionally driven, instant-gratification children, they cannot resist the seduction of not only Islam's hatred but its willingness to do something about it. That they are riding the back of the tiger doesn't occur to them.

Putin lost a staggering 42,860 men on the battlefield in July between soldiers killed and wounded, the most since January 2025 -- and the fourth bloodiest month since the start of the war in 2022.
I'm not sure that I'd take any western media as an authoritative source on the matter. This isn't to say that they're wrong, just that I don't trust them to be either correct or honest.

Valid, however, this is the way of America now. Lawyers. IF you have the case, beat them. Then sue them. If Buc-ee's is in the wrong, take their money. Attorney's will be glad to work at no fee unless they win. Because the win would be huge. I'm fine with that. If it's found that Buc-ee's overstepped, make them pay.

No, surviving is not a victory. They have united the region against them, their proxies are being gutted and it's only a matter of time before they fall. Trump tried to blitz them and has now adopted a long-term sustainable strategy.
Iran's oil weapon is broken, the Straits are losing their strategic significance and the world economy chugs on.
There is none of the urgency of 1990, which some of us are old enough to remember. Honestly, if Trump stopped talking about it, the story would disappear. It's basically an upscale version of Operation Northern Watch.

We can and are doing both.
What we are not doing directly is replacing their government, although an examination of pre-war Org charts shows we have concentrated on killing IRGC leaders. An American tradition since the Revolutionary War is to kill the officers.

Our military can defeat the IRGC but, short of using nuclear weapons, it can't do it today. That means an endless parade of whining about how the whole thing is dragging on and we want season two already. Same as has been the case for every conflict the US has been involved in since world war eleven.
