The Morning Report — 6/ 3 /26

Good morning kids. While it certainly looks as if Graham "Oyster cracker" Platner is on the verge of going kerSPLATner. Sure he's utterly horrendous on every level. But he's not a one-off considering this happened just down the coast in New Jersey:

Adam Hamawy, a controversial candidate who previously volunteered with an al-Qaeda-linked group, has won the Democrat primary for retiring Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman’s (D-NJ) seat in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Hamawy, who was endorsed by the so-called “Squad,” became a lightning rod for criticism on the campaign trail due to his intense criticism of Israel and his having volunteered with the Benevolence International Foundation in Bosnia, per the New York Post:
An Iraq War veteran, Hamawy has made national headlines for saving Sen. Tammy Duckworth’s (D-Ill) life after a helicopter crash as well as for his volunteer work in the Gaza Strip.

How "controversial" could he have been and still come out on top let alone even be a candidate? Yes New Jersey, especially the bedroom communities/counties near NYC are leftist dominated with growing populations of Muslims from some of the worst Islamic hellholes on earth. The "Squad" are also not really outliers but represent more and more the majority of the Democrat base and ultimately are going to supplant the old guard allegedly "moderate" "liberal" leadership, bth those words in quotation marks for obvious reasons since Democrats are neither moderate nor liberal. Great he rescued Tammy Duckworth. This is kind of like Otto Skorzeny rescuing Mussolini.

Be that as it may, the Democrat/Leftist party and movement is at war and has always been at war with Americans and America as founded. Unless and until the hatred of this nation its people history and heritage are utterly burned out of that Party's black heart, we'll never know a moment's peace. It's us or them and it's high time we realize it. Of course there are those allegedly on our side who won't and never will, and worse, will aid and abet in our destruction:

. . . the American conservatives whom Mike Pence is urging to take the high road can’t afford to pretend that doing so will ensure victory. We are not facing political opponents who can be lectured into behaving more civilly. The late Freedom Center founder David Horowitz warned decades ago that we are at war with an enemy determined not to seek coexistence with us but to destroy us. Today’s Democrats call for and celebrate our murder, for God’s sake. They certainly won’t be shamed into cleaning up their language.
Pence writes that civility “is how we can find principled common ground in America.” This is a beautiful dream, but the reality is that Left and Right today have no common ground – none. There is literally no political issue – abortion, immigration, race, crime, education, the family, poverty, homelessness, national security, national sovereignty, the environment, foreign policy, religion – on which there is not a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between both sides. Even if there were a patch of common ground somewhere, the Left is not interested in tilling that soil, but craves total power. The idea that Republicans and Democrats can reach across the aisle and come together even in a grudging mutual respect is, sadly, a fantasy.

Yeah, about that civility:

There are judicial rulings that raise complex legal questions, and there are rulings that expose a deeper rot. Judge Leonie Brinkema’s decision to block the Justice Department’s Anti-Weaponization Fund belongs firmly in the latter category. What occurred here transcends a routine dispute over government spending — it is a profound assertion of judicial overreach. ..
The Anti-Weaponization Fund was established as part of a settlement in President Trump’s lawsuit against the government regarding the unlawful disclosure of his tax information. The fund creates a pathway for individuals who believe they have been harmed by government weaponization or politically motivated “lawfare” to seek compensation. Predictably, this objective has drawn fierce opposition from the very circles that spent years insisting such weaponization either did not exist or was entirely justified. Their opposition tells its own story.

Mike Pence hasn't uttered a sound about this:

rioter was charged Friday “for allegedly kicking and biting ICE officers” at a New Jersey illegal immigrant holding center on Thursday, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said on X. Another individual was arrested after threatening to murder an immigration officer and his family, Blanche said Friday. The Department of Homeland Security arrested at least six rioters last Wednesday alone for allegedly assaulting law enforcement, while others were arrested in the subsequent days, ABC 6 reported.
The attacks took place outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in New Jersey called Delaney Hall. Fox News reported that “agitators…were seen establishing a highly organized logistics and support operation before protests began at the site. Stockpiles of masks, duct tape, hard hats and medical supplies were laid out near the facility.”

If we really want civility, we'll get it in a nanosecond once we have summary executions of rioters. Until then Ponce Pence can shove civility where the sun don't shine.

Have a great day.

The fund meant the payouts get done quicker and with WAY fewer legal fees (aka, cheaper for the American taxpayer). Now, there's still 2 years for the Gov to continually settle cases brought by plaintiffs 1 by 1. Does this guarantee enrichment of lawyers and jobs for judges - yes. Does this stop payouts to those harmed by fed gov willing to sue - no.

55 New York’s 1.47 Million Voter Roll Fraud Unmasks The ‘Safe Blue State’ Myth

--

Blue State Myth is only relative to whether or not anything is ever done to restore integrity to elections. Nothing changes? Then NY (and several others) will remain solid blue states, regardless of the actual, legal voters. We are so far down the rabbit hole on all the ways fraud and cheating can and do happen. I don't know if these blue cities (and states) will ever be restored and function legally.

56 If there are any Nevada horde members here can I ask you guys to pull the lever for (R)Adriana Guzman-Fralick for Nevada Attorney General? She was endorsed yesterday by President Trump. The dude she is running against Is Danny Tarkanian(jerkoff). This is my best friends wife. We all went to high school together(Sparks High School).
A win for her would put her good friend Wendy B.(single) in a good mood when I see her again at our 40 year high school reunion this month on the 12th. We all went to a Loverboy concert in Reno last year and I didn't have time(had to leave immediately after) to hit her up for a date.
So help out Nevada and JROD please, Thank You guys!

70 >>The fund meant the payouts get done quicker and with WAY fewer legal fees (aka, cheaper for the American taxpayer). Now, there's still 2 years for the Gov to continually settle cases brought by plaintiffs 1 by 1. Does this guarantee enrichment of lawyers and jobs for judges - yes. Does this stop payouts to those harmed by fed gov willing to sue - no.

An approval of the fund would mean that people in Congress on both sides of the aisle would have to admit that there was a need for the fund, that the Biden administration and to a large extent the Obama administration was weaponized against Trump and his supporters.

Many of them are still living off Russia collusion, J6 and other lies that attempted to exterminate the movement. It will also expose them as even bigger liars and frauds. They will continue to fight against that with everything they've got.

71 The local Fox outlet mentioned that Antoinette Frank, the former NOPD cop convicted and sentenced to death for the murders of a Vietnamese shopkeeper and his wife -- in 1995! -- is still on Death Row. Her lawyer has been filing one motion after another and managing to keep her breathing oxygen for three decades.

The TV series Homicide: Life on the Street had an episode in the late '90s based on this case. The script finished with a macabre detail: That her father had not been seen for two years . . . and under her house investigators found human bones.

That same detail was reported in the actual Frank case. Wiki: "A month after she was sentenced to death, police found a human skull with a bullet hole buried under Frank's house."

He doesn’t think 60 minutes is a business, or even a news show - he thinks it’s a “sacred trust” and he is one of the “custodians”. And that stinky ownership is committing heresy and sacrilege by telling them what to do.

You know what would be a good idea? Let's rejigger the tax code to take more people off the tax rolls.

And we can slowly add them back to the tax rolls later.

Liberals...it is not too late to join us on here on the left. YES. We want all Americans to have free healthcare. YES. We want NO MORE funding to Israel. YES. We want education reform.

I love how all the liberals and Democrats were freaking out after Hamawy took the lead. Their media was describing him as 'alleged plastic surgeon from Rutgers' when he is one of the famous doctors in the country.

Saved a US senators life in Iraq, served as a national guard for 8 years, helped during the Bosnian war, Syrian civil war, Haiti's 2010 earthquake, treated first responders on 9/11, did life saving work in Gaza...That's an insane resume.

Even though I expected this, I'm still so happy! Yay! I get to be represented by an unapologetic progressive!

This was a crazy interesting race to watch as the vote came in. Every other serious candidate was highly regional, but Hamaway was pulling 2nd place with mid-twenties basically everywhere. He consolidated the "left" vote and nobody else could consolidate the "normie progressive" or "establishment" vote.

"The authors, Katie Rogers and Tyler Pager, claim to have interviewed more than a dozen individuals “directly familiar with the dynamic between the two men.” Several of those sources spoke to the Times on the condition of anonymity."

Fortunately, the article goes on to say...

"Frankly, the article reads as though its authors started with their desired conclusion — that Trump has soured on his vice president — and then gathered evidence to support it.

Is there some truth to the story? Perhaps. But it is equally fair to ask whether we are witnessing the early stages of yet another media-driven effort to manufacture a rift between Trump and Vance where little or none actually exists."

134 So the SCOTUS is still pending it's ruling on counting ballots received after Election Day.

While California counts ballots for the next 4 weeks in 2 of the most high profile non presidential elections in decades.

We will get the SCOTUS decision before the final tally in CA.

With an embarrassing dissent by the 3 that defies reality and asserts that, what is going on in CA--including the expected "amazing late-counted tranch that flips the lead""--never actually happens...

We've tried to accommodate these lunatics, the lunatics want no accommodation.

Look at something like infanticide, the lunatics want it till the point of crowning, we offered 15 weeks, they then proceeded to throw tantrums and hissy fits and work to enshrine the sacrament of unlimited infanticide in every state constitution.

Look at fag marriage, we offered civil unions, they then jammed SSM down our throats.

And on an on.

There can be no accommodation with literal lunatics.

175 >>I mean I love Trump, but he has clearly stepped on his dick with this Iranian Adventure.

Completely disagree. Iran launched a few missiles, all of which were shot down. In return the US hit Iranian missile launch sites and other targets.

It's beyond obvious and has been for weeks that Trump can completely obliterate Iran if he chooses but has decided it would be better in the long run not to completely destroy Iran and turn it into the next Iraq or Libya. So he has chosen the path of grinding them down and forcing them to accept a deal on his terms.

Trump is looking down the road at a stable Middle East that relies on commerce between the members to keep the peace. Business partners have a strong incentive not to fight.

So it takes a bit longer to get a deal. Iraq is still broken more than a decade later. Libya is still broken. Both still house terrorists. What is everyone's huge rush? Iran has been a problem for 47 years and for most of that time Trump was speaking about the need to deal with Iran. Let me do his thing. He has a pretty damn good track record.

214 But wait! The Islamic Regime news is getting better !
"US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that Iran has agreed to not have a nuclear weapon, as he revealed he will 'probably meet with Iran's Ayatollah at some point... 'They've already agreed they're not going to have a nuclear weapon,' Trump said, adding that Tehran could still 'change their mind.'

'I did have to say we have to do something about Iran, because regardless of how well we're doing [economically] we can't let them have a nuclear weapon,' he said.

'I mean, now they can change their mind, but that was one of the things they've had to agree, they've agreed to that. That was the big thing,' he added.

He also said that the US does not 'need boots on the ground now.' "

Well! Let's pop the champagne and celebrate! The only thing missing is assurances from the demented lying ayatollahs that they put a fatwah on the nukes. Otherwise I won't , I shan't believe all this comity coming from the Islamic Republic.

"but," you say, "how can you know?"

Because that level of tribalism they exhibited in protecting the killer only comes from insulation from integration into Western society.

And that insulation only comes by being protected from and avoiding any employment--the number 1 way cultures are forced to mix and interact in broader society.

We don’t need a deal in order to eliminate Irans ability to control the straits and affect world oil prices. We don’t need regime change, either. The US needs to seize the islands in the straits with amphibious troops and eliminate the small boat threat completely. If that means eliminating every dock in every village on the Iranian side of the straits, fine. It’s still a simple military problem that can be solved.

Once the straits are open, the rest of it can take all the time Trump wants to give it. Right now, the Iranians have calculated that the US does not have the nerve to do this fight anymore, and they can hold on until our midterms.

Would you grant that Trump and his team including the military, CIA, etc., are well aware of the need to open the Strait completely and also know a hell of a lot more about the on the ground situation than we do? That seems pretty obvious to me.

I would also wager that nobody wants this over with more than Trump. He is a pretty smart guy and he understands the ramifications of a closed Strait including in political terms.

I don't agree at all that Iran has concluded anything of the sort seeing as how they aren't getting their oil money either and are losing something on the order of $500 million/day. In fact, I would assume they are wondering how the hell they keep their country from imploding without money. Trump is showing he does in fact have patience.

290 Ugh. I just read that a rough cut of Greta Gerwig's Narnia movie "The Magician's Nephew" had anachronistic rock music (maybe just for this version), but worst of all, the setting has been moved from the late Victorian era to 1955, when the story was published. Which makes no sense, because the boy in this story was later the old professor who took in the Pevensie children during WWII.

I hope this is wrong.

However the Blue States and their Commie leaders understand where this is all headed and their plan is to win one more election( thanks Iran War for whatever other merits it has) and then make the USA an irreversible one Party operation —-pack the court, admit DC and PR as States, etc etc ).

And I really don't care. They shot down some drones and some apparently got through despite earlier reports that all were shot down. And the US also hit Iran. These minor attacks have been going on constantly.

It doesn't mean Trump should abandon his long term goal which was never regime change. It was to take away Iran's ability to ever have nukes and to stablize the region. Destroying Iran does not stabilize the region.

I received an email about 20 years ago telling me NASA would no longer track this item as Government Property. It was mine as of the email date. I was told to remove "Property of U. S Government" sticker but did not. That sticker gives this calculator a bit of class in my opinion, and is a nice reminder of my work at NASA.

436 Good morning, all, and thanks, J.J.

From above, Pence writes that civility “is how we can find principled common ground in America.”

Also, the Anti-Weaponization Fund "established as part of a settlement in President Trump’s lawsuit against the government ...creates a pathway for individuals who believe they have been harmed by government weaponization or politically motivated “lawfare” to seek compensation" blocked.

That's one hell of a coincidence.

About five years after January 6th, and all of its political & personal repercussions, Pence is rolled out again to push back on U.S. citizens who had likely voted for him, too, in both 2016 & 2020.

(AI Overview, for simplicity): During the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot, then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Vice President Mike Pence held a series of secure phone calls. The two political adversaries bypassed inaction by collaborating to ensure the safety of lawmakers and resume the certification of the presidential election.

The raw audio and video of the behind-the-scenes calls were captured by documentary filmmaker Alexandra Pelosi (the Speaker's daughter) and later aired publicly by the House Select.

437 Federal authorities charged 1,583 individuals across all 50 states and Washington, D.C. for their involvement in the January 6 U.S. Capitol Attack. The resulting investigation became the largest criminal probe in U.S. history.

While over 1,000 defendants pleaded guilty to or were found guilty at trial for various federal crimes, none were charged with the formal crime of insurrection.

Legal experts noted that the DOJ avoided these charges because they did not want to risk losing cases if they could not prove a "rock-solid" intent to launch a rebellion, rather than just participating in a violent, disorganized riot.

OTW, unprovable from the start but oh, how they tried.

In April 2023, Pence spent hours testifying before a federal grand jury investigating the January 6th Capitol attack and efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

However, President Donald Trump issued sweeping pardons and commutations for January 6 defendants on January 20, 2025, during his first day in office for his second term, and with J.D. Vance as V.P.
