    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) The suspected assassin of Charlie Kirk is in custody, a bilgepickle hater named Tyler Robinson of Utah. His own father turned him in. His bullets had fascist writings etched in them. As Techno Fog points out, 33 hours to catch him was remarkably quick, considering it took days to catch the murderous Luigi Mangoine. Related to this, liberal fascists thought they were free to dance on Charlie's grave. BlueSky and Reddit had hordes of these barbarians. The vomitous rag called The Nation said to remember who Charlie "really is" and called him "despicable"---a guy who never did anything except engage in polite discussion. But to the rescue rode an army of internet sleuths who exposed and doxxed hundreds of crazed fungalnuggets who stupidly posted on social media. So far, more than 50 have been fired, forced to resign, or suspended from their jobs. And The Punisher, Pete Hegseth is just getting started on the Department of WAH! This is the first time in my life time where there have been consequences for left hate. MSNBC fired the Bushie scrotommagnet Matt Dowd. About time. This guy should have been fired by Bush. 2) It turns out that the 71-year-old man who was first arrested in UT is no daisy, having been arrested multiple times on obstruction, trespass, and sending a death threat bomb-letter to a UT city council. 3) As I say below, we crossed an inflection point, not just here but around the world. More on that, but one key indicator here is that Sen. John Can't-Carry-a-Thune has blown through the filibuster option and has started bringing packets of numerous Trump nominees to the floor to be approved in one fell swoop. Only two hours of debate per nominee are allowed. Most will be confirmed by next week. Oh, and out of fear of leftist dribblepoachers, legislators may start carrying weapons. Worked in the 1850s. Only one DemoKKKrat terror attack on a senator, when Charles Sumner was hit in a surprise attack by the slave-lover Preston Brooks. 4) Chris Bray agrees with me, that we have hit an inflection point and that the Left is losing bigly on all fronts, hence, they are becoming rabid wolverines backed into a corner. They will lose. The only question is by how much. 5) Republicans on the Hill have named members of a new January 6 (Patriot Day) committee whose mission is unclear. No one went to jail from the first one our side created. Ray Epps is still at large, Michael Byrd is uncharged, and no one has been indicted or even named in the so-called "Pipe bomb" deployments. 6) Remember how DemoKKKrats were going to match GOP redistricting to neutralize it? Yeah. Good times. Now it looks like there is severe pushback, as many DemoKKKrat congressgoblins do not want to give up one inch of their own territory in redistricting, hence nothing will happen. No DemoKKKrats want to give up some of their voters to try to steal voters elsewhere. I'll say again. I believe as of today, Rs have a lock on the House for 2026. Meanwhile, remember the "Economics of Abundance" (a DemoKKKrat theme that never took off?) Moderates at "The Liberal Patriot" explain why. 7) The Feds continue their crackdown on the drug cartels, particularly the Sinaloa cartel, arresting 617.8) Lost in the Charlie Kirk story, there was a shooting at the U.S. Naval Academy. None killed, one injured by a disgruntled washed-out midshipman. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 9) Illegal invaders fleeing ICE tried to storm the CIA HQ at Langley. Good luck. IN CULTURAL NEWS 10) The Nation's Report Card gives public schools a failing grade. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 11) Howard Luttnick, Commerce Sec., says Chy-na is "eating" most of the cost of the tariffs. 12) Americans are leaving the cities and heading for the hinterlands. It's cheaper, and safe. 13) Inflation down from Rutabaga's 7% but still rising at a 4% rate. Where is Tall Paul Volcker? IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS 14) The assassination of Charlie Kirk in America is a---pardon the phrase---turning point, but it already was rippling through other parts of the world. On Monday I reported the resignation of the Japanese PM. France's government has collapsed. Nepal is seeing incredible anti-government-corruption violence, where the wife of the (they think) corrupt former PM was burned to death. Now the head of the Bavarian province in Germany, home of BMW and Audi, announced the termination of the ban against internal combustion engines. Green, like all leftist spooge, is dying. 15) Brazil, apparently hasn't gotten the message that communism sucks, and has jailed former President Jair Bolsonaro, a true Brazilian patriot. 16) They are now admitting it. The world is NOT moving away from fossil fuels. Nor should it. Norway, for example, pumped more oil and gas than expected by "forecasters." 17) Little Rocket Man, Kim Jung-Un, has ordered people who watch foreign films to be executed. You know, that's cuz North Korea is the gold standard of fine movies. IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS 18) CBS ...

    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah. Word as I recorded this is that he is dead. Suspect in custody. Getting to a boiling point where people are not gonna take it. MSNBC said it could have been a "supporter shooting off a gun." Yeah, sort of like Ryan "Baby" Routh or that decaying slimepocket Thomas Crooks. This one will send shockwaves, and I'm guessing they won't be pretty and they won't be "change at the ballot box." 2) In what is turning into the 2025 version of the Kate Steinle killing, a beautiful Ukrainian immigrant was stabbed to death on a Charlotte light rail. Iryna Zarutska was minding her own business when a bottom-feeding criminal with 14 charges stabbed her. No one helped her. We now have a victim's list of Iryna, Kate, and Lakin Riley (whom Rutabaga could not even bother to name, just as the dumbo Charlotte mayor couldn't manage to say Iryna's name. As the U.S. attorney for the Western District of North Carolina aptly stated, there is no "other side" to this. "Is the opposite side let's let murderers on our light rail?" The DOJ has also charged the feral Decarlos Brown. This, in turn, may mean the death penalty for Buster Brown, who deserves it. And quickly. But it was typical of Hoax News coverage that even when they managed to mention the victim, it was done so in the typical "Republicans pounce." As Jeff Childers notes, when DemoKKKrats are involved in hideous stuff, that is never the headline. It's always how Republicans are going to pounce on the DemoKKKrat vileness. For example, the Wall Street Urinal at first ran the headline "Woman's Stabbing Death Becomes MAGA Talking Point" before changing it to "After Fatal Stabbing of Ukrainian Refugee, Trump Says U.S. Must Confront Crime Problem." But based on the latest murders, rapes, an all around anti-social spoogism, it seems we have a black on white or illegal on American problem. Never fear, the ever reliable minVan Jones says the incident wasn't racial but the official Black Looters Matter account says that these rectal pimples have a right to violence. Oh, and Trump isn't finished with D.C. as an investigation revealed a massive scandal in D.C. crime stats. 3) Slowly but surely President Trump is winning all these battles. The Supes just "let" him freeze $5 billion in foreign aid giveaways. 4) I saw no celebration of this from either our "influencers" or the Hoax News Media. Border Czar Tom Homan says they have found over 22,000 missing children, including 27 of those deceased. 5) Seth Keshel argues that barring a remarkable alliance of Curtis Sliwa, Eric the Red Adams, and Nipplepin Venthoarder (Andrew Cuomo), the Amazing Zohran will almost certainly be elected, many people in New Kabul (NYC) will suffer, but that it will remined everyone how horrible socialism is. Great Seth, but I wish it would remind them how horrible radical Islam is, because this prostate-balloon is every bit as much a Muslim threat as was Khan in London. Speaking of which, the Amazing Zohran spent years supporting a rapper who "worshipped" a 9/11 hijacker. 6) DemoKKKrats are having more wars, this time over who will replace some of the dinosaurs. Progs vs. establishment. 7) Some Hoax News polls are showing President Trump's approval in the mid-40s, but this UK Daily Mail poll has him at 55%, which I think is probably closer to reality. 8) Gruesome, the moronic Kollyfornia governor, wants to do away with the "myth" of clean and sober, suggesting is it not possible for addicts. So Gruesome gives up on yet another reality, that to reduce the druggie and homeless population, you actually have to get them off drugs. 9) John Bolton is being investigated specifically for violations of the espionage act. The contents of his house were, to say the least, disturbing. 10) The more we learn about the Rutabaga administration, the more evil it looks. Now new evidence from the Demented Pervert's Department of Education, which targeted Christian higher education and focused on controlling school boards. We also have new evidence that the DOJ warned Rutabaga about the autopen pardons, saying that claims many of the felons were nonviolent were untrue. Rutabaga did not even review the warrants. Aides said he outsourced approval to Cackles. Oh, and we also learned that Rutabaga's DoD funded $2.5 billion in research tied to the ChiComs. Not against them. With them. 11) A $100 million assault case against Rutabaga that the Hoax News media wouldn't cover has been expanded to include Jill and Hunter. Bankrupt these fleshtubes. Meanwhile, Rutabaga isn't getting any love from Cackles, who called his run "reckless" in her new book. Yeah, Cackles can write well enough to sign a check to a ghostwriter. 12) A new book from Howard Husak found that the leftoid push for public housing was responsible for much of the black/white wealth gap due to forcing blacks into long-term living conditions that, unlike single family houses, did not allow them to ...

    Today's News, September 4-5, 2025

    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) I do have a tiny shred of sympathy for the DemoKKKrats over at "Liberal Patriot," who, having failed to get any interest in the "abundance economy" or "good management of cities," how are down to "When Trump Screws Up." This is not a strategy. They admit that redistricting isn't the DemoKKKrats' problem (though they fail to point out that the most likely outcome after MO has convened today to take up the issue will be an R gain of 7-8 NET seats after Kollyfornia, or a lock on 219 in the House. Not only does this view fail to ask, "What if Trump doesn't screw up? How do DemoKKKrats win back voters?" but puts Ds in the position of hating and working against success in immigration, the economy, peace, and so on. 2) Here is another way Trump is just crushing the DemoKKKrats. Team Trump signed up 1.6 million new social media followers in August and has 200 million more than DemoKKKrats. 3) Supposedly the "missing minute" of the Epstein videos was found. No one yet says what's on it. And on Capitol Hill, St. Thomas of Spooge is losing support for a discharge petition of the Epstein list as Speaker Johnson says the House Oversight Committee will produce more info than on the list. 4) Meanwhile, over at the Waffen SS (Stupid Senate), the moronic Tim Candy Kaine, who looks like a serial killer, said that the idea that "our rights come from God is troubling." Well, Candy, take it up with fellow Virginian. You know, the one who wrote the Declaration? That Jefferson guy. 5) Trump has officially renamed the Defense Department the War Department. 6) The U.S. seized the largest cache of fentanyl from Chy-na ever---1300 barrels in Houston. Not one DemoKKKrat came out in praise of this. 7) Another useless porkpuncher of a judge puts a hold on Trump's freeze of Big Ed money to Harvard. This will be struck down. Getting old. There need to be serious penalties for judges who are overruled, like a docking of pay or time out. 8) Congresswoman Harriet (the Clusterbomb Cheney slayer) Hageman says BBB 2 is coming that will prioritize energy and immigration. Ok, as long as you keep legislating Trump's agenda into place. 9) Well, well. Remember how the National Guard in D.C. were to be temporary? Yeah, thanks Congress. Congress is voting against an extension, even while the National Guard has its orders extended through December. In the video, there was some confusion as this was in two contradictory stories. 10) Emory is the latest university to wave the white flag regarding President Trump's DEI policies. 11) Kash Patel announced that the FBI had foiled another shooting plot, this one in NC. Recall that the week of the transoid MN shooter an attempt was foiled in D.C. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 12) Trump's border policies have been so successful that 97% of the caravans turned back, including a recent one of 14,000. 13) An appeals court slapped down the goofball judge who closed Alligator Alcatraz. IN CULTURAL NEWS 14) The Great Ryan Burge: mainline Protestantism isn't just shrinking. It's aging. Only 2% of mainliners are 18-35. 15) Delta Airlines will now use "Gulf of America." IN TRANSOID NEWS 16) Christopher Rufo is right: transoidism ends in nihilism and self-hate, which usually is turned on others first before the spoogebrained sexually-infected moldmonkeys shoot themselves. 17) The smallest of rebellions against transoid policies has started in Kollyfornia, where both students and faculty walked out in protest of Temecula Valley's mixed bathroom policies 18) New Jersey DemoKKKrats are introducing indoctrination legislation to force kids as young as 6 to listen to transoid/homosexual fairly tales. No opt out. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 19) Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says we may be heading for a national housing emergency this fall (leaving unspoken "If the Fed doesn't get its head out of its ass"). 20) Falling crude oil prices are good for consumers, but Conoco-Phillips is cutting workforce. 21) President Trump has ordered his whole administration to join the war on offshore wind. President Trump said he is going to block the New England wind project. (Good). 22) The DOJ has issued subpoenas in the case of Fed Reserve governor Lisa Cook who is accused of multiple counts of mortgage fraud. 23) People keep buying despite retailers' higher prices (Note:: Reuters cites a "sobering" effect of tariffs, yet the Reuterette insists they are affecting sales. Go figure. 24) Shell Oil is being sued by white Houston applicants for security positions who were passed over because of race. 25) This is pocket change, but it opens the door for similar very important suits about privacy: Google has to pay $425 million for tracking people who switched off their apps. 26) The 30-year mortgage rate dropped again, now at 6.64%. Still too high. Got my house at 2.9%. But, as Herman's Hermits sang, "This could be the start of something big. But the jobs report of only 22,000 jobs added is moving ...
