The Morning Report — 6/ 17 /26

Morning Report intro.jpg

Good morning kids. Early doctor's appointment for the wife this morning so off we go...

And as the details of the Iran ceasefire deal continue to dominate the headlines, the good bad and ugly, we have this item of some minor interest, eh?

A complaint from FBI task force officer Christopher Betts alleged that 19-year-old Tycen Proper of Knox County, Ohio, joined a group that wanted to unleash mass terror at the UFC event. The group wanted to target Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and other elected officials they said had compromised themselves by taking money from “pro-Israel PACs,” according to the complaint.
In messages plotting the attack, the FBI alleges that Proper wrote, “I got a possible target Marsha Blackburn is senator for Tennessee” because “she’s taken money from the Israel pro Israel lobby and supports them.”
The suspects planned to use explosive drones to drive a crowd in the direction of snipers, according to investigators.
Betts said that Proper, whom local law enforcement arrested last week, “admitted to planning with others a coordinated attack against the United States government during the UFC event scheduled to take place.”
Other elected officials seen as targets were Senator Jim Justice, Senator Shelley Moore Capito, Rep. Carol Miller, and Rep. Riley Moore — all of whom hail from West Virginia — Betts said a review of a chat planning the attack revealed.

With that I give you this entry, a well-written yet clueless essay, given everything going on in this country that continues to tear us apart even as we approach our 250th birthday.

Principles for a Centrist Realignment: The Grand Alliance: The path to national renewal begins when Americans unite around common sense instead of division, decline, and perpetual crisis.

That's just the headline and subhead which is enough to make my point, but here's a bit more to whet your appetite or make you puke:

First, most Americans don’t want to live in a divided nation, and they don’t want to live in a culture that has devolved to cater to society’s lowest, most abnormal, deviant, hedonistic, psychotic, sociopathic, dishonest, crooked, lazy, defiant, bizarre, militant cohorts of individuals, regardless of the fact they’ve become politically organized and demand equality of outcome in every imaginable context. Most Americans understand the inherent necessity and benefits of nuclear families, hard work, and immutable standards for achievement and recognition.
Second, America’s culture of common sense and unity is threatened by a fractious coalition of fanatics and lunatics who are relatively small in number and who harbor an innate antipathy toward each other that is only held in check by rivers of money flowing to them from globalist billionaires, opportunistic corporations, environmentalist pressure groups, and government unions. Their resources are money and anger. . .

Where to even begin. If any of this were true, then California would not be Zimbabwe on the Pacific instead of what it once was; the world's sixth largest economy and where many once flocked to make their American dream become real. We as a nation and people are more divided than at any time in our history, perhaps even more than 1860. Because as fundamentally serious as the issue of slavery was, we are now divided by the perverse notion that our nation and society as founded is illegitimate and that those who support it and desire its restoration are an evil to be eradicated by any and every means necessary, as the foiled plot against the UFC event at the white House, and every other attack and assassination attempt has demonstrated to all but the blind deaf and dumb.

So, just like the moderates of Islam, where are the so-called "moderates" of the Democrat/Left in the wake of the aforementioned as well as all of the attacks on our values, institutions and even ourselves, be it the President, Laken Riley or the United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, Ashli Babbitt, Roseanne Boyland, and Austin Metcalf whose grave is being urinated upon to the cheering of those we are supposed to make peace with?

Sorry but in the immortal words of Andrew Breitbart FUCK YOU, WAR

And nothing but absolute victory will be acceptable to me.

Have a great day,

We’re doing a lot to make it better. It’s going to take a little bit of time. There’s a lot more work to do. But the president knows that a lot of Americans are struggling. In fact, he ran on that.

10 I am no longer as much a 'Trump'-ist as I was formerly. He has COMPLETELY abdicated the position of strength we formerly held in this conflict and has 'bent the knee' to the mullocracy. They now believe THEY're the winners 'cos they're (a) still alive, (b) getting their money, (c) keeping their 'nuke dust', and (d) still launching missiles at vessels transiting the Strait. WHAT, precisely, has Trump now 'won'? Sorry, but I have to look at what all the bluff and bluster has gotten him (and us). Nothing. The ONLY good thing to result from this misbegotten undertaking is that we didn't re-enact 'Bagram, Pt II'. Trump blew it.

14 3 — I say this with sadness. Trump stepped on his dick with this Iran deal. That NY Post story (a paper that’s usually friendly to Trump) is not pretty.

Yes, the initial bombardment weakened them a lot and set them back. But… given their worldview, when they survive they’ve won; they’ve slain the great Satan. They don’t want to be a normal country. Any deal, regardless of the details, is something they’ll break and is therefore worthless

Yet again we’ve kicked the can down the road; kicked it farther than before.. but it’s still down the road.

Given this outcome I’d almost prefer he didn’t start the thing and be satisfied with the results of last June’s bombings….

We had been on a trajectory with truly awful potential outcomes, set on course by Obama and ValJar who wanted to make Iran a regional hegemon. They unfroze hundreds of billions to that end. As if that wasn't enough they gave them pallets of cash for walking-around money to spread terror. Biden was their third term continuing this.

Trump got as much as he could without getting us sucked into a quagmire. Iran won't be much of an issue Come November. I say, well played sir.

The women were near 105 Wilkinson Ave. in Jersey City when two people on a moped drove past their car and threw acid on them, the spokesperson said. They were all transported to the hospital with skin burns and peeling but were expected to survive, the spokesperson reported.

According to police, the incident appears to be targeted and may have stemmed from an argument with a large group of people earlier in the day

46 Y’all worrying about the US/Israel v Iran “deal”.

Stop thinking in terms of an unwinnable war unless the nation is carpet bombed with nukes. The US is far too diverse to handle war at that scale.

Think of the much bigger and much more higher stakes war: BRI v IMEC

If one thing occurred, this has was a torpedo at the keel of China’s BRI.

Look at how the whole dynamic of global trade has changed by making the SoH and Persian Gulf a huge volatike mess. IMEC 2.0 KOs BRI

60 According to the text of the MOU published by Bloomberg, Iran ONLY gave two things:

1. Opening the Strait of Hormuz.

2. A declaration ONLY that it would never produce nuclear weapons.

The US gave everything else:

1. A commitment to remove all sanctions on Iran.

2. Lifting the blockade.

3. Establishing a $300 billion reconstruction fund for Iran

4. Ending the war in Lebanon, including a commitment to this on behalf of Israel.

5. Immediate exemptions for oil exports.

6. Release of funds.

64 Black Parole Supervisor Fired for Racist Remarks on Austin Metcalf: ‘Let Them Start Burying Some of Theirs for a Change.’

--

I couldn't get this out of my mind yesterday. It's so grotesquely disturbing. First off, it's become clear to me that a large percentage of American blacks cheer on each and every murder of a white person and will refuse to hold one of their own accountable. They hate whites that much. To argue otherwise is futile in light of all I've seen and heard the last decade and a half.

Secondly, where does this ignorant idiot get the notion white kids are running around in droves killing black kids...like St. Karmelo the Killer?

"Let them start burying some of theirs...?" Really? The only people killing blacks in large numbers are other blacks. This woman needs Jesus, but I don't hold out much hope she'll find Him. She's too poisoned.

Seriously: I do NOT understand why Trump failed to 'go for the gold' in this encounter. He's coming out of the deal looking like the loser - the mullahs are looking like winners. It's almost as if this were a 'PR War' (aren't they all to some extent?). Got some serious re-staffing and re-thinking to do now …

Again, if true, IRGC gets everything, cash, prizes and a vacation to the Bahamas. Keep the nuke material and can still close the strait whenever they want to. And sanctions are gone.

Yes, they are "defanged" but they can still close the strait and attack their neighbors infrastructure and develop nukes with missile capability.

Good news is Israel seems to be able to continue their moves on Hez and other Iranian cutouts in Lebanon. The energy flows and choke points are in the process of reordered and China got a taste of how very vulnerable they are and now have to purchase market oil in dollars. Long term that's a win.

But at the end of all of this....IRGC still in charge, still has missiles/drones...still has proxies (although deminished) and still has the nuclear dust.

I'm hoping that "leaked" MOU is incomplete or an early draft....if not, yeesh. Not good, stains those involved.

Second, America’s culture of common sense and unity is threatened by a fractious coalition of fanatics and lunatics who are relatively small in number and who harbor an innate antipathy toward each other that is only held in check by rivers of money flowing to them from globalist billionaires, opportunistic corporations, environmentalist pressure groups, and government unions.

Mr Ring you are so very very wrong. The number of (D) that wish for death and destruction of (R) numbers not in 1000s, or 10,000s but in the MILLIONS.
There a 50 million (D) voter in the US. 15 to 20 Million of those people have no problem with a reconquista, a second 9/11, 0r a collapse of the economy or stock market.
Look at how they loved to total control by Big Govt during COVID.

This he found very vexing…. But perhaps eventually understood when he caught Poppy leaving the bathroom without washing his hands only to be next seen kneading his pizza dough…

The fact that the same MOU is not only being published this morning by Bloomberg, but now in major news outlets in almost every Capital City around the world, is a strong sign that this administration is the one who’s “leaked” it in order to prepare for the signing on Friday.

And to repeat, no one in the administration is disputing any specific term in the now published MOU.

Also there’s no reason to believe there are “secret terms” ; Trump himself has said the entire MOU was barely a page and a half long. (Matching what’s being published)

Please to remember that they're constantly lied to about America by their state-run media. Their state-run media gets all its information from our America-hating media, who doesn't have any greater knowledge of America outside of NYC and LA.

I've really enjoyed seeing their joy about 'Merica too. It's really refreshing to hear them counter the American Communists' constant barrage of anti-American sentiment.

OTOH, I don't want any of them taking a stroll through Seattle, Portland, the poop-laden streets of San Fran, the drug ghettos in Philly and elsewhere. There is brutal ugliness in America, too. And...golly...it's all concentrated in American Democrat-run hellholes for some reason!

The world does not have the stomach for what a win against the mullahs would entail. This country doesn't, and I doubt even most Republicans do.

221 A lot of people haven't a clue what the requirements are for a datacenter. They obviously vary.

One way to get involved and either advocate for them, or find out details to use in an effort to thwart them is to get on a county commission. A board, like one that rezones property, adjusts property taxes, does impact statements, crunches numbers, etc. Most of the time it's strictly volunteer work. Part time. Maybe an hour or two a month. Plus sitting in the meetings.

A number of locals have done just this. Most are against the proposed center, for a variety of reasons. But what the politicians and developers tell the locals is significantly different from what is documented in the commission's reports to government heads. That by itself is something of an issue. Transparency and all.

If you're passionate about them, go advocate for them. If not, go get involved in the planning processes and ask questions, inform the public, etc.

It costs nothing but time.

238 Another Major Transgender Suicide Study Crumbles

********

This article highlights THE major flaw/weakness of the specialty of adolescent medicine, and not only in the case of gender confusion. Whether dealing with questions of sex, drugs, or rock-and-roll, clinical studies in the field rely to a great extent on questionnaires and self-reported subjective feelings from adolescents. And we all know that adolescents are mature, not manipulative, and are always truthful on sensitive topics. /s The entire field is built on a foundation of emotions and self-serving self-reporting rather than actual measurable objective outcomes in a truly randomized fashion. The questionnaires themselves are crafted in a way that steers the results in a direction the authors prefer. Bogus science.

278 And since the president's January 2025 EO coupled with the HHS finding put CHCO's gender clinic on hold for much of last year and this year to date, children in CO have received a partial respite from the irreversible harm of those powerful hormones. It's not total victory, but I would count it as a win.

279 I was in Jersey last week for a family reunion at the shore. Having lived in Texas for so long, I was shocked at the tiny stores, tiny parking lots and tiny streets in the Northeast.

Stopped at a Wawa for coffee. Good coffee and I liked the look of the hot food for sale but, mercy Maud, I was bumping into everything.

Mom grew a mango tree from a seed. The fruit that grew on that tree was the best mango I'd ever eaten. It was like eating vine-riped tomatoes in your backyard to eating the tasteless store-bought barely red/mostly green tomatoes...

AWESOME! Dana White says President Trump believes DIVINE INTERVENTION played a role in literally splitting up the storm that would've disrupted the White House UFC Freedom 250

"The storm comes and SPLITS at the White House, and goes AROUND the White House and the ellipse. You know the president believes that to his core, it was divine intervention!"

Posted by: Don Black at June 17, 2026 08:43 AM (gfoN7)

Mango tastes a bit like God decided to improve on the peach.

The trick of buying them is to find one that looks ripe, isn't rock hard, and is leaking syrup from the stem area.

That will be perfectly ripe 99% of the time.

Take that one home. Peel and eat.

I have said for more than 20 years that the United States could never, ever take Normandy today.

Not because the military lacks the capability - we're the most lethal fighting force in the history of humanity - but because the public would immediately demand we quit.

2,500 KIA in a morning? No way we'd be able to continue.

308 There seems to be a precedent with the whole going to war/boots on the ground thing. If you aren’t going yourself(I’m not), sending your kids to fight(they’re not) haven’t served(I haven’t) then you have no say. Okay fine. I am however paying for the military, I’m sure some of my FICA deductions are going to it. So in that I assume I have a say. I say disband the military, we don’t need it. Boots on the ground in some foreign country is a no go so there is no point in having troops. All it is is a welfare program. Nobody seems to be able to explain or give an example of when troops should be committed to fighting. What is a viable U.S. interest to commit troops? Clearly Iran getting nukes isn’t. So what is? Those with the authority to speak on military affairs should at least step up and say when we should put boots on the ground. Just like I’m not able to have an opinion on female matters, abortion for example, I will no longer have an opinion that involves the military. Only veterans or current active members can. So by all means what is the military for?
