The Morning Report — 6/ 22 /26
Sir Keir Starmer choked up as he announced his resignation as UK Prime Minister Monday – less than 2 years after the Labour Party stormed to a landslide general election win.
Starmer, 63, set out a timetable to stand down after coming under mounting pressure following last month’s local elections, where the governing Labour Party lost over 1,000 seats. The Prime Minister announced his intention to step down after admitting the Labour Party was questioning whether he could lead it into the next general election, which must be held before July 2029, just 23 months after leading his party to a landslide win. “I have heard the answer of my parliamentary party to that question, and I accept that answer with good grace,” Starmer said outside 10 Downing Street in London. Every decision I’ve taken has been about putting the country I love first. That is why I will resign as leader of the Labour Party. I have spoken to His Majesty the King this morning to inform him of my decision.”
While I'm no expert, to say the least, on British politics but no doubt that one of the things that has led to Starmer's departure is the growing scandal of the Muslim rape crisis that has come to light especially over the last year or so. But shockingly Muslim men have been raping non-Muslim women and girls for decades!
This is something that’s also totally missed by the report’s focus on Islam as the main driving force behind the grooming: Pakistani Muslim men raping white British girls because they aren’t Muslim. In many cases, the Muslim identity of the men appears to be incidental to the grooming, and the kinship networks like the Kashmiri birādarī system that structure it predate conversion to Islam by centuries. Yes, some groomers do refer to the girls as kuffār—non-believers—and the justification is that of the wretched Quran verse “What the right hand possesses,” which says Muslim men can take sex slaves from among kuffār women, but it seems to be kinship, rather than religion, that gives these crimes their systematic and persistent character. Ultimately, though, this remains to be explored properly.Rape is not a one-off crime committed here and there but it is a documented tool of warfare used by Muslims to conquer and subjugate nations and people once Islam becomes a dominant force politically and/or demographically aided and abetted by a cowed and submissive indigenous populace that refuses to defend itself from invasion and conquest, and as is the case of Britain and much of western Europe brought it willingly upon themselves for myriad cultural and historic reasons.
While Starmer is gone, is there really a chance that the English people will recognize the mortal danger they placed themselves in by allowing the socialists to rule essentially unchecked since the end of the Second World War, Churchill's sunset years and Maggie Thatcher notwithstanding. The uprising in Belfast over the attempted public beheading of a man in broad daylight certainly gives one hope that people are indeed waking up at long last. Still, I'm hesitant to predict a sea change over there, knowing full well that despite being mugged by reality, Leftists/Democrats will lather rinse and repeat and continue to vote for their own destruction. Of course the societal and political pressure imposed by the globalist/political media cultural complex to bend the knee and surrender cannot be underestimated either. And in the UK there is now an official censorship regime where one can be hauled off and prosecuted for uttering anything critical against Islam, let alone even silently praying in front of an abortion mill. And elsewhere the beat goes on with the Iran negotiations. Some are hailing Trump and Vance as brilliant masters of 11-dimension chess. . .
Regardless of the naysayers, neoconservatives, and progressive leftist shills using social and mainstream media to portray America as weak for the thousandth time, President Trump's Iran deal and the communication of the deal by Vice President JD Vance has been a masterclass in geopolitics and media dexterity. President Trump's preliminary MOU with Iran took pressure, pragmatism, forceful language, and a militaristic strategy to secure, but it was all worth it. The priority of using peace through strength, the ever-powerful Trumpist foreign policy mantra, proved yet again that President Trump is the best negotiator in modern American or world politics. Using bombs to force conversation is certainly an option, but it ended up being the best solution for all sides of the war in Iran. While Obama's Iran deal funded radical Islamic terrorism and the spreading of Sharia Law throughout the globe, Trump's deal utilized tariffs, bombs, and blockades to bring Iran up the ramp and into 12 rounds with the 45th and 47th President of the United States.. . . Sounds great, but others are claiming they've both been taken to the cleaners.
Trump Coulda Been a Contender -- The destruction of a legacy. . . It’s one of the most justly celebrated moments in cinematic history. In Elia Kazan’s classic movie On the Waterfront (1954), the failed boxer Terry Malloy (Marlon Brando), who was forced to take a dive during the bout that could have established him as a possible challenger for the championship belt, says to his brother, who was in on the fix: “I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am.” I was going to make the subtitle to this article “Instead of a bum which is what he is,” but it was just too painful. Trump isn’t a bum, and maybe, just maybe, he will eventually right the ship and get on with the business of making America great again. But showering billions on a regime whose leaders routinely scream “Death to America,” and pretending that the evil men who now control that regime are rational people with whom America can do business — that’s the behavior of one of the America-Lasters who has governed this unhappy land in recent decades, not that of the visionary who promised to take on and defeat those who were selling out our interests.A number of good essays in the links that illustrate both sides of the argument. So, as the President himself is fond of saying, we'll just have to wait and see. Have a good day,

Trump’s approach to Iran has been good overall, but marred IMHO by some recent missteps; namely, the MOU is imperfect to say the least and he’s made so many threats that didn’t materialize they’re beginning to ring hollow.
We severely degraded their military and killed leaders - GOOD
Long fruitless negotiations with hollow threats - Not so good
Yeah, we’ll have to wait and see…

President Trump has shit the bed in regards to Iran.
Go big or go home, but he shit the bed instead, only delaying that which needs to be done. Hopefully he recovers but the bed has been shitted.

France will block any attempt to remove UN Security Council sanctions on Iran unless future nuclear negotiations satisfy French requirements and address concerns over Tehran’s missile program and regional proxy groups....

This is why people getting excited about Starmer being driven out is misplaced.
No Labour PM will be better, and in this case might be far worse because of the perception that the rape gang scandal is behind them.

Willowed from Pixy:
The UK is gone, it doesn’t matter who is PM. Even Nigel Farage couldn’t fix it; certainly none of their political class can… they’re all clones. This Burnham guy is another Starmer, perhaps less wooden. No Thatcher out there to save the day… kinda sad but their voters have been digging this hole for decades. The numb skulls threw out Churchill after WWII and it’s been generally downhill since with only the respite from Thatcher applying some brakes on the downhill

On some level, I cannot bring myself to believe Europe--England and Germany, Belgium, France, Sweden, Belgium--can possibly fall.
But Eastern Europe fell to Communism for generations. The entire Middle East was once Christian. The city of Constantine was overrun by Muslims and became Istanbul, the Hagia Sophia a mosque.
It can happen, it is happening, and if Europeans do not convulse violently enough to shake off this predator, the same thing will happen.

UK is done done done. Burnham will be worse and more leftist (if that's possible) by a lot.

Iranian PM Ghalibaf on Trump’s threats to restart the war:
“Don't they think to themselves that, if their threats had worked, they wouldn't have reached the desperation they face today? We don't take the Americans' threats into account.
They'd better watch their statements; our armed forces are ready to respond in another way. No matter how much they talk, it's we who take action.”
Iran is openly declaring that they are going to do any damn thing they want to, and that Trump won’t have the nerve to do anything about it. Money is already flowing in; arms are flowing in; supplies are flowing in. And oil is flowing out, all restrictions dropped already.

First, eliminate the fraud in the system, which is estimated at between $200 billion and $500 billion per year.
I have to assume that those estimates were made prior to the fraud starting to be uncovered. In a $7T budget, I'd guess that at least $4T of it is fraud.

While I'm no expert, to say the least, on British politics but no doubt that one of the things that has led to Starmer's departure is the growing scandal of the Muslim rape crisis that has come to light especially over the last year or so. But shockingly Muslim men have been raping non-Muslim women and girls for decades!
But, the muslhams tell me this isn't true. Shame on you, JJ.

Finally, we need to address the elephant in the room: funding Social Security and Medicare. Benefit cuts are off the table so the only solution is tax increases. I propose increasing the Medicare tax from 1.45 percent to 2 percent and the Social Security tax from 6.2 percent to 6.5 percent. In addition, I propose tripling the FICA maximum, currently at $184,750, with a new 7.5-percent crediting rate to preserve the defined benefit nature of the payouts. Implementing these increases would generate about $300 billion per year and keep these programs solvent through the end of the century.
God forbid that we should explore ways to end these programs. Just raise the taxes collected for them every so often until it eats up everything else.

They didn't exactly "storm to a landslide". Their share of votes cast was scarcely different than 2019. They won more seats because Reform took what were usually Tory votes.

Anthropic’s most powerful artificial intelligence model reportedly breached ‘almost all’ US classified systems in a matter of hours, according to Senator Mark Warner, who says the head of the National Security Agency told him directly that the model had penetrated nearly every classified system it was tested against. The claim has not been publicly confirmed by any government agency.
Senator Mark Warner, vice-chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said on 11 June that General Joshua Rudd, who leads both the NSA and the Pentagon’s Cyber Command, told him directly that Anthropic’s Mythos model ‘broke into almost all of our classified systems, not in weeks, but in hours.’ The extent of the alleged breach and which specific systems were affected have not been publicly disclosed. Anthropic did not respond to a request for comment.
The warning emerged alongside an abrupt move by the Trump administration to block foreign access to Anthropic’s two most advanced models, Mythos and Fable.

Ok, $500 billion and he gives the Ayatollah a hand job on tv, then. Whatever makes America a strong winner whom the world respects. 🙄
The biggest problem with this deal is not the deal, it is the dealer. Trump’s word is worthless. He could offer 1 trillion dollars and everyone gets a free Tesla. Whatever he signs is just going to get torn up when his feelings change.

It's getting fun watching the Dems come apart. Over the weekend you had the rally where Bernie and Mamdani et al went after the Dem party. Then you have Crockett crapping all over Talarico. There are also a lot of vids in X showing Dem Socialists taking shots at "toxic" Dem party. Add to that fights in the primaries and you have one big Dem mess. Of course the Republicans could screw up the opportunity.....

Now, they will never do anything other than house homeless in it, but the lost revenue will lead closer to complete bankruptcy. But they 'got Trump' so......

I don’t know whether we’re winning or losing with the Iran situation. I personally think it’s a mixed bag. I will say that I saw Bill Maher comment over the weekend that we’ve lost… and while I think Maher is a POS he’s actually a fairly honest broker ( astonishingly) and he favored the Iran action and wanted Trump to go farther… and Maher thinks at this moment at least that we’ve lost (too many hollow threats with no follow through)
That perception that we lost is out there and that’s not good. The Iranian bluster sure sounds like they think they won
I still want power plant day and Kharg island leveled…

With one clear winner emerging. Maybe someone serious who can "rise above" it, not sure on that yet. But the primary preferred winner is already known.

Some of the fans at the US Open yesterday lacked class. It’s okay to root for your preferred player and cheer his good shots… but some fans were openly cheering for the ultimate winner’s shots to go into rough or bunkers and cheering when he hit bad shots… no class
On the last hole rather than cheer the guy in the lead as he approached the last green they sang happy birthday to the guy 4 shots back who had no way to win. BTW, I like Scottie Scheffler a lot and wish he would’ve won but he was out of contention at that point…

In international politics, perception IS reality. Iran isn’t just talking like they won, they are acting like they won. Pictures circulating of thousands of posters put up in Tehran this weekend, offering $1000 (American) to any man who will volunteer to go to Lebanon and fight for Hezbollah. To be paid for with the money pouring in today.
Iran views the talk about blowing power plants as a giant bluff that Trump doesn’t have the nerve to carry out. They’ve called the bluff.
If there’s to be any hope of salvaging the situation, the US needs to order a massive wave of strikes right now. Sadly, all we see is Vance in Switzerland agreeing that Israel is committing genocide in Lebanon, just to make the Iranians happy.

This is completely and totally predictable. Revelations from former career Pfizer executive is that drugs that quickly heal are dropped in favor of drugs that provide lifelong subscriptions. Cash flow, increasing quarterly returns.
There is also EMTALA and 100M+ foreigners and natives who lead lifestyles that require chronic care offering no means to pay.

There is no profit motive to make care more efficient for as long as a third party is paying. The only motive is to pump up margins and AI fits right in there.

There is no profit motive to make care more efficient for as long as a third party is paying. The only motive is to pump up margins and AI fits right in there.

The batter is the most important part. A good batter, cooked at a perfect oil temp, is key.
The oil needs to be hot, but not too hot where the batter burns.
I never attempt it because I KNOW I won't get it right.

The UK situation is hopeless partly because of their system. In the last big election, Labour won a HUGE percentage of parliamentary seats (something like 125 seats beyond what they needed for a majority) and yet only garnered about 33% of the total votes. That’d be like a presidential candidate here winning the electoral college overwhelmingly with only 33% of the vote.
It’s not a good system. I mean yeah if you win 47% and get a parliamentary majority that’s fine… but 33%?? Not a mandate

This more than anything else is what pisses me off so much about what happened this weekend. Trump’s decisions over the last few days are making all the idiot lefty communists look as though they are right for once. Even though all they’re doing is saying what’s obvious to everyone, but everyone on our side is now too terrified to even talk about it. It’s giving them all a cheap and easy win for no reason.

Were they public, anyone could just walk in, sit down, and listen to what's being taught.
Shoot some hoops in the gym.
Check out a book from the library.
Try a meal in the cafeteria.
But you can't.
They're anything BUT open to the public.

It is worth remembering what Trump’s original stated goal in Iran was.
March 6, 2026, Truth Social post:
“ There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!” Following Tehran’s submission to the ongoing military campaign should be “the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s),”

He said he wanted them to give up their nukes. Period. He accomplished that by blowing the shit out of their nuke facilities. They will not be a nuclear power any time soon.
But we'll go ahead and call him a failure for not accomplishing things WE put as his goal that wasn't originally his goal......
Posted by: Sponge - F*ck Cancer at June 22, 2026 08:44 AM (2YhKe)
I thought we blew up their nuke capabilities last June. How many times can the same thing be blown up before it’s actually blown up?
Maybe we delayed it some, who knows. Nobody really does. We didn’t end it, that’s for sure.They will be back to doing what right we’re doing the second the ink is dry on the “peace deal”.
And regime change isn’t something WE said. He said it repeatedly. Remember his tweets to the Iranian people that he has their back? Don rewrite history man.

Trump is constrained by American domestic politics. He had to stop so the midterms can be contested and hopefully won. If he needs to return to Iran, I am sure he will (having done so repeatedly over his two terms).

True, but President Trump has not helped his case. He has not spoken to the American people and explained what he is doing and why he is doing it.
That leads to the chaotic analysis and a sort of fill-in-the-blank foreign policy, and that is a problem.

At this point most schools are like fortresses. I went back to my old HS a few years ago in a tiny midwestern town and to my astonishment I couldn’t walk inside… had to be buzzed in by the main office. Security measures doncha know… I mean that tiny town is never gonna have a school shooting but it’s follow the leader amongst the edu-ma-cation class…
