A truly themeless day, so let's just start with miscellaneous Trumpiania. Joe Chalfant at TownHall thinks it's disgusting that Deranged Vandals Force Authorities to Implement New Security Measures Around Reflecting Pool. It's a reflection on liberals. Althouse finds "When asked if Trump was the 79-year-old man in question, White House spokesperson Kush Desai did not say no...." Eli Lilly Approved Obesity Drug for Mystery 79-Year-Old Patient and "He was much less stoked to be assigned by Tina Brown, then editor of The New Yorker, to profile Mr. Trump in 1997,"I'm sorry to hear that Mark Singer has died. You can click on my tag "Mark Singer" to see how he's come up here over the years. What a distinction to have Trump's "YOU ARE A TOTAL LOSER" in your NYT obituary. To continue the all-caps — RIP." Reason complains Trump Says His Task Force Is Fighting a Foreign 'Invasion.' It's Busting Americans for Drugs Instead. At CTH, sundance has Primary Elections in New York, Utah, Maryland and South Carolina – Results and Open Discussion.
In the Iran conflict, sundance hosts Secretary Rubio Holding an Impromptu Presser Upon Arrival in Abu Dhabi, UAE. News Wax claims Trump says Iran Has 'Fully Agreed' to Nuclear Inspections. If so, they're lying. NYPo goes Inside the insurance racket Iran wants to run in the Strait of Hormuz — and how it will devastate Western shipping. Oil Price.com sees the Hormuz Crisis Sparks a Middle East Pipeline Boom. Makes sense. I suppose they're allowed to build such things still. Don Surber addresses the question Where’s the regime change? "It is in Iran because killing the ayatollah created a power vacuum." I think we need to peel back three or four more layers of the onion.
Matt Margolis at PJM says Stick a Fork in James Talarico. He's Done after a video comes to light of him admitting "I always think of myself as a Christian who hates Christianity, right?" At Hat Hair, Dave Strom thinks If The Texas Senate Race Isn't Safe, Then We Might as Well Pack It in and Move to Canada for MAiD and Capt. Ed notices Whoa: Crockett, Allred Snub Talarico and Texas Dem Convention.

Jonathan Turley @JonathanTurley, "Some of us almost spit out our coffee this morning on Dan Goldman going on CNN to denounce the lack of civility in politics. This stems from the refusal of a barista to sell him a coffee. Goldman, who is viewed by many as the face of rage for his party in attacking anyone with..." Steve Eisner @DoTheRightWing, "Classic case of the pot calling the kettle black. They spend all their time hurling the most vicious insults against the Right never even thinking to protect their flank as they get eaten by their own on the Left." Michael Birzin @bigbee383, "He's found out too late that he isn't communist or antisemitic enough for the DSA. After today the Democratic party should officially change it's logo. The communist left has taken over." Jon Levine @LevineJonathan, "NEW from me The owner of the coffee shop which refused Dan Goldman's "AIPAC" money: 1. Owes NY almost $400,000 in taxes 2. Accused Israel of doing 9/11 3. Donated to Graham Platner (naturally) 4. Been repeatedly cited by NYC health inspectors." Charles Murray @charlesmurray, "My daughter's friend in grad school, upon being asked by a member of her dissertation committee why she didn't include a Marxist perspective. "I grew up in the Soviet Union. I don't practice recreational Marxism." Quote Possum Reviews @ReviewsPossum, "I don't care what communism is in theory because I know what it is in practice. x.com/ilektramerc/st…"
Amy Curtis at TownHall, Josh Shapiro Actually Said This About the Democratic Party. Defiant L’s @DefiantLs, "Josh Shapiro: "I think Democrats are the party of real freedom. Real freedom that... allows parents like me and my wife Lori to make decisions over what vaccines our kids are gonna be able to get." You're free to bake the cake, or else. From the Victory Girls, Chicago’s Latest Emergency Is A Word Nobody Can Define: Transfemicide Beege Welborn at Hat Hair asks Excuse Me, Chicago - Could You Point Me to Where the 'Transfemicide' Is Happening? TheBlaze @theblaze, "Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson says he has declared a “Transfemicide State of Emergency.” "You know how many PEOPLE of all colors, but mostly black, have been killed in Chicago in the same past ten years? FIVE THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED With 197 already this year." Ace, So Close to Pride Month? As Chicago Recovers From Bloody "Juneteenth" Violence Leaving Eight Dead and Thirty-Nine Shot, BlacKKK Mayor Brandon Johnson Changes the Topic and Babbles About Anti-Trans Violence That Barely Exists. "It was another weekend of slaughter in the Lightworker's supposed home city." Nick Matau @nick_matau, "The terrorist group (PFLP - who started modern terrorism) Sama Safi belongs to has killed over 20 U.S. citizens." Quote Rep. Derek Tran @RepDerekTranCA, "I am deeply alarmed by the detention of Sama Safi in an Israeli prison. Sama, a 20-year-old Palestinian American student, was taken from her home in the middle of the night and continues to be held without charges. This is part of a disturbing pattern of the Israeli government."
George MF Washington @GMFWashington, "I do an early morning bike ride on weekends just as all the addicts are “coming to”… if you really want to see the horrors Newsom and Bass turn a blind eye to, that’s the time to do it, before they wisely move back into the shadows before the normies start their day." Quote New York Post @nypost, "Iconic Santa Monica beach turns into 'sleeping bag city' at sunrise - as locals erupt https://trib.al/9T5XZRi." I went to Santa Monica beach many times growing up. Beege Welborn hears Newsom to CA State Employees: Okay, Everybody Back in the Pool! You can stop cowering from Covid now. Ace cites Politico: Senator Reuben Gallego (Who Fancies Himself a Candidate for President or VP in 2028) Shared a Joint Back Account With His F***buddy Eric Swalwell, Used His Campaign Kitty to Pay for Personal Expenses, "I can't believe that this slob believes he can be President or VP. He thinks he has an in because he's Hispanic and Democrats are nothing but racial panderers."
