Like We Want Your Ugly Curmudgeon Face On Money!

250 years of waste continues.

President Donald J. Trump is pretty much ignoring Vice President JD Vance. You hardly hear about James David Vance and the small chaos he be causing. It the damn near 80 year old curmudgeon who gets most of the country's attention.

When former president Joe Biden was in the news, they put focus on former vice president Kamala Harris. They held her to a higher standard because she is a woman, a Black American and a person who faced more backlash for things she couldn't control.

Vance is basically a background character. He has no major impact on what drives Trump to do what's right. 

So who came up with the idea of having Trump's face on a denomination of the U.S. Dollar?

The U.S. Treasury is planning on printing special denomination with the image of Trump on a $250 bill. The U.S. currency officially starts with dollar denominations of $1, $2, $5, $10, 20, $50 and $100. The $500, $1,000, $5,000, $10,000 and $100,000 were taken out of rotation. Some the higher denomination still exist but rare finds. 

The lower counts include $.01 (until 2034), $.05, $.10, $.25, $.50 and $1.00 coins.

Rep. Joe "You Lie" Wilson (R-SC) says he is going the distance for Trump. He drafting legislation H.R. 1761, The Donald J. Trump $250 Bill Act, a stupid vanity bill that honors the living president on a banknote. 

Wilson should spend more time on lowering gas prices, lowering groceries, lowering insurance premiums, fixing infrastructure and bring jobs to his fucking district.

Nope. 

Some dumb shit no one asked for.

The bill's development, first reported by the Washington Post on Thursday, comes in response to legislation proposed last year by Wilson the department said. 

The guy who infamously said "You Lie" in during former president Barack Obama's Joint Session of Congress now wants to put President Donald J. Trump's face on banknotes.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent addressed the $250 bill at a White House press briefing on Thursday. 

"For U.S. currency at present, no living person can be on U.S. currency, and the currency must say 'In God We Trust'," he said. "So right now, there is proposed legislation that is in front of the House, in front of the Senate, to change the first requirement so that a living person, Donald J. Trump, could be on the $250 bill."

"So we have prepared in advance that if the legislation is passed. But we will stick to the law," Bessent added.

A Treasury Department official told CBS News in an email that the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) is "conducting appropriate planning and due diligence in response to the proposed legislation."

The official added, "Should this legislative mandate be signed into law, the BEP is moving proactively to produce a $250 commemorative note which will appropriately recognize the 250th Anniversary of our great nation."

Federal law stipulates that "only the portrait of a deceased individual may appear on United States currency and securities." Wilson's bill would amend the Federal Reserve Act by requiring the Treasury secretary to print $250 bills that "feature a portrait of Donald J. Trump."

After the "Donald J. Trump $250 Bill Act" was introduced in Congress in February 2025, it was referred to the House Committee on Financial Services that same day. It has since stalled out, with no actions since then.

Over the past year, the president has sought to imprint more forms of currency with his name or image, with the Treasury announcing in March that future currency would bear Mr. Trump's signature. In October, the department said it was working on a $1 coin featuring the president's image to mark the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence this July 4. 

It takes a fool to make something like this.

What would the bill look like?

Asked about the bill's design, the Treasury Department official referred CBS News to Rep. Wilson's legislation. A press release on Wilson's website shows an AI design mock-up that features a color portrait of Mr. Trump on the left-hand side of a $250 note. 

Another version appeared in the Washington Post article, with the publication noting the image was a mockup provided by White House officials to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing staff. The image depicts a bill printed in shades of green ink, similar to current banknotes, with a center image of Mr. Trump. 

New currency designs can take years to develop, according to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Designs typically are only released to the public six to eight months before the currency enters circulation to hamper counterfeiters, the bureau says.

Given that design process, the Treasury Department official said that "any 'designs' or 'mockups' circulating are not real."

The $250 bill would be the latest addition to a lineup of currency created to celebrate the nation's 250th anniversary. In December 2025, the Treasury Department unveiled a series of new designs for the nickel, dime, quarter and half dollar that will appear on coins minted in 2026.

"The designs on these historic coins depict the story of America's journey toward a 'more perfect union,' and celebrate America's defining ideals of liberty," the U.S. Mint said on its website.

Like we got so much shit going on. 

Nearly $40 trillion in debt, a war with Iran with no end in sight, Israel genocidal intentions from each part of Asia, a potential civil war in the U.S., white supremacy on the rise and potentially an economic collapse. 

Yeah, Trump and the vanity of his likeness on a damn bill.

Feds Drop Charges On Israeli Tied To A Deadly Biolab In Las Vegas!

All a Mossad in.

What is it with Israelis and Las Vegas?

An Israeli was caught by the feds after they discovered he was in possession of a biochemical laboratory. What makes this story so dangerous is the fact he had the potential to use these deadly weapons on civilians through clandestine methods.

A sudden bump. 

A touch of a door handle.

A exchange of credit cards, cash, toys, controllers, food or drinks.

This man could have brought a plague on the U.S. and the fucking world.

This is why its important to end the partnership, the assistance and the excuses when it comes to Israel. A white religious supremacist ethnostate devoted to illegal seizure of thousands of acres to establish a "end of times" country based on the Torah.

A Jewish supremacist country totally devoted to destroying any significant opposition to their goal of a Greater Israel.

 A suspected biolaboratory found in a Las Vegas home and now under investigation by authorities is linked to the owner of an unauthorized California biolab who was arrested in 2023, officials said Monday.

The U.S. apprehended a Chinese national who hosted a biochemical lab in the country and Canada.

SWAT officers served a search warrant on Saturday after receiving a tip that a biolab was located at the house on the city’s east side, according to a statement from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. Officers took one person, the property manager of the residence, into custody but there was no immediate information about possible charges.

Investigators “located evidence of possible biological material, including refrigerators containing vials with unknown liquids,” the statement said.

Authorities said there is no threat to the public.

Sheriff Kevin McMahill said the home is owned by a man who was arrested in 2023 on charges of not obtaining the proper permits to manufacture tests for COVID-19, pregnancy and HIV, and mislabeling some of the kits for a biolab in Reedley, California.

The owner, Jia Bei Zhu, is scheduled to go on trial in that case in April. His attorney Anthony Capozzi said Monday that his client has been in federal custody for three years.

“He is not involved in any kind of a biolab being conducted in a home in Las Vegas,” Capozzi said. “What went on in that residence we are unaware of.”

Law enforcement took special precautions when serving the warrant on the Las Vegas home, including using a robot to clear the home and taking multiple air samples, McMahill said. Hazmat teams worked to remove items from the home.

The FBI is assisting in the investigation.

Turns out that Ori Solomon was the person assistanting Jia Bei Zhu. 

Federal prosecutors have dropped their case against the man arrested in connection with a biolab uncovered in Las Vegas earlier this year.

The U.S. Attorney's office for Nevada filed a motion earlier this month to dismiss the criminal complaint filed against Ori Solomon, also spelled as "Salomon" in the complaint.

Prosecutors had charged him with illegal possession of a firearm in the U.S. District Court for Nevada. An FBI complaint alleged that his immigration status precluded him from owning or possessing a gun.

"After a careful review of the evidence and additional information provided by defendant, the Government has concluded that the interests of justice require dismissal of the complaint at this time," reads the motion to dismiss, dated May 11.

No further reason is included, and a spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney's Office for Nevada declined to comment. News 3 has reached out to Solomon's attorney for comment.

The motion to dismiss is without prejudice, meaning prosecutors could elect to re-file the complaint.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police and the FBI jointly announced Solomon's arrest after responding to an alleged biological laboratory found in an east Las Vegas home in January.

LVMPD said Solomon, identified as the home's property manager, was arrested on suspicion of disposing and discharging hazardous waste.

The state-level case against him remains ongoing in Las Vegas Justice Court, though a criminal complaint has not yet been filed.

The suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz Carpetbags Into Black District!

Jar Jar Binks runs in safe Florida Black district. Desparate to hold on to power and an objective to keep voting to fund Israel.

Florida decided to do its controversial redistricting to help the unpopular Republicans hold a majority in the state. The former Democratic National Committee chairwoman who is currently a representative in the U.S. House had her district drawn out.

Now in a desperation move, the pro Israel Democrat is now running in a district that has a majority Black constituency. It is drawing a backlash.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) deserves to lose. Her staunch support of Israel, her tone deafness to the issues in her own district and the support of status quo politics will doom her.

Schultz has supported the Iran aggression. She criticized President Donald J. Trump for being willing to cave to Iran. That right there shows more concern for the interests of Israel.

She was one of the voters who condemned Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) in a resolution that censured her for calling Israel an apartheid genocidal ethnostate.

Some of the Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) supporters believe she rigged the delegates progress to push forward former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

She is one of the sponsors of the definition of antisemitism by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. Wasserman Schultz also condemned Hasan Piker, a far left agitator who calls for an end to Israel aid and assistance.

Now she wants the seat that former lawmaker Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick held.

Wasserman Schultz's decision to run in a historically Black district intensified when 10 members of the Florida Democratic National Committee issued a joint statement formally condemning one of the party’s most veteran lawmakers.

Wasserman Schultz decided to abandon District 25 for the safer, deep-blue waters of District 20 after the Florida Legislature—under heavy pressure from Gov. Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump—redrew the state's congressional map to aggressively favor Republicans.

While Wasserman Schultz represented the same geographic pocket and Democratic stronghold of southern Broward County for over 21 years, the newly enacted map scattered the congresswoman’s traditional suburban base across five separate districts. The reengineered District 25 is now a skinny, coastal strip running along the Atlantic Ocean from Delray Beach in Palm Beach County to barrier islands in Miami-Dade County.

Black leaders criticize Wasserman Schultz move to District 20

“Our party cannot credibly denounce the dismantling of Black political power by Republicans while treating one of Florida’s few remaining majority-Black districts as a political opportunity for an incumbent seeking a safer seat,” the state DNC members said in the joint letter Tuesday.

Among the state DNC members signing letters was Vice Chair Daniel Henry, former State Rep. Sean Shaw and Tampa City Councilman Alan Clendenin.

The Florida Black Caucus issued its own statement on May 22, saying District 20 was established to remedy decades of racial exclusion. “Congresswoman Wasserman Schultz's decision to pursue reelection in this historically Black district, despite explicit request from the Black community to seek candidacy in a neighboring district, is disheartening," the Caucus said.

The friends you keep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick and Debbie Wasserman Schultz are pro Israel lawmakers. Cherfilus-McCormick resigned under pressure. Wasserman Schultz now wants to creep into the seat.

State Sen. Shevrin Jones said the issue was not about Wasserman Schultz’s leadership. “My fight is for Black representation, and I am in the business of expanding it, not diminishing it,” he said. “Everyone deserves to have a seat at the table.”

District 20 was represented by Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, but she resigned her seat last month after a House Ethics Committee investigation determined she misused about $5 million in federal FEMA funds. Alcee Hastings represented the area for 28 years before his death in 2021.

Under the new Republican map, District 20 wasn’t spared. Its voting-age Black population is now 45%—making it now technically a Black-plurality district.

Congresswoman says her tenure makes her best suited to deliver

Wasserman Schultz did not immediately respond for a request to comment on the joint letter issued Tuesday. However, she did defend her choice to run in District 20 to CBS News Miami on May 22, saying that she would be able to deliver for residents better than a newcomer if Democrats win back the U.S. House as the most senior Democrat in the Florida delegation.

“I’m a senior member of the House Appropriation Committee. I am the ranking member of a subcommittee in appropriations, making me at the leadership table,” she said.

“The people in District 20 know me and I know them,” Wasserman Schultz continued. “People know I show up for them.”

Wasserman Schultz called the Legislature's redistricting illegal. On Tuesday, a Leon County judge denied a preliminary injunction sought by voting rights groups to block the newly enacted map.

The Democratic primary is set for Aug. 18 and currently has eight candidates, including Cherfilus-McCormick attempting a political comeback and Miami hip-hop pioneer Luther “Uncle Luke” Campbell.

The GOP has also piled on criticism of the congresswoman, saying she is “running scared” rather than face re-election in the newly defined District 25, which now has an evenly divided number of registered Democrats and Republicans. 

Maureen O’Toole, spokesperson for the National Republican Congressional Committee, said in a statement Wasserman Schultz “is abandoning her home district because she knows she was headed for defeat in a seat President Trump won by double digits."

Lt. Col. Alex Vindman, the former National Security Council member running for U.S. Senate in Florida, said the Democratic infighting is playing right into Republicans' hands and was part of the design of the new map.

“It’s exactly what they (Republicans) are looking for,” he said. “When a party has no ideas that connect with the electorate, they try to steal an election.”

Elijah Manley, a Democrat also running District 20, said the acrimony "sends a message that the Democrats don't have all their marbles together and I think the fault is on Debbie Wasserman Schultz ."

"Debbie is only concerned about her own career because she had multiple options," said Manley, adding that the veteran congresswoman could have run in District 25 or even District 22 where two progressive underdogs are looking to represent the Democrats.

Biden Sues DOJ To Stop Private Chat Leaks!

Joe and Jilly!

Former president Joe Biden will not be looked upon as a good leader. He allowed his support of Israel drive him down into the bottom tier. Had he stopped conditioning Israel with weapons and understood why Hamas fought against it, maybe we would have a second term or Kamala Harris be the president.

Zionism is an evil that must be stopped.

President Donald J. Trump is the worst. The curmudgeon back on his bullshit. Instead of trying to stop the chaos, he continues on with blinders on. Too confident that his leadership will succeed while the reality shows its rapidly declining.

Biden is suing the Department Of Justice after the agency allowed The Heritage Foundation to obtain access to the former president's private discussions. It is an attempt to rehash the Hunter Biden and health concerns plaguing him.

Biden has cancer. He is going through treatments.

Biden sued the Justice Department on Tuesday in an effort to block the release of audio recordings and transcripts of the former president’s interview with a ghostwriter that were obtained by the special counsel who investigated his handling of classified documents.

Biden’s lawyers said in a lawsuit filed in Washington’s federal court that the Justice Department plans to release the files to Congress and a conservative group, the Heritage Foundation, after the department had previously argued that they were exempt from disclosure under the public records law.

Biden’s lawyers argued that the disclosure would “constitute an unwarranted invasion of President Biden’s privacy.”

“Every American, including a sitting or former Vice President, has a right to privacy in the personal conversations he has within his own home,” his attorneys wrote. “And when the U.S. Department of Justice obtains that private information through a criminal investigation, the Department bears a particular responsibility to protect it from disclosure.”

At issue in the case are audio recordings and transcripts of Biden’s interviews at his home in 2016 and 2017 with Mark Zwonitzer, who worked with Biden on his two memoirs. The files were scrutinized by special counsel Robert Hur as part of his investigation into the president’s improper retention of classified documents, from his time as a senator and as vice president.

Hur’s yearlong investigation led to a 345-page report that questioned Biden’s age and mental competence but recommended no criminal charges against the then-81-year-old. Hur said he found insufficient evidence to successfully prosecute a case in court.

Biden has separately fought the release of the audio of his interview with Hur. The House in 2024 voted to hold Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress for refusing to turn over that audio after the White House exerted executive privilege, shielding it from Congress.

The transcripts of five hours of Biden interviews with federal prosecutors was released that same year. While Biden was adamant that he treated classified information seriously, the transcript shows that he was at times fuzzy about dates and details and he said he was unfamiliar with the paper trail for some of the sensitive documents he handled.

Republicans have argued Biden was being given a pass by his own Justice Department and that Trump had been unfairly victimized by prosecutors. Democrats, for their part, stressed Biden’s cooperation in the investigation and strongly contrasted that with the separate criminal case against Trump, who was accused of refusing to return classified documents requested by the National Archives that he had at his Florida estate.

Dr. Jill Biden, the former first lady publicly came forth about her husband. She thought Joe was having a stroke when he did his only debate with Trump. It was a disaster and it forced him to announce he was no longer seeking reelection.

In the Democratic National Committee autospy report, the Democrats placed the blame on Biden for not stepping aside earlier after he had some missteps early into the term.

Biden known for having a stutter was also facing concerns about cognitive decline. 

Dr. Biden, who retired from teaching feared her husband was having a stroke as she watched then-President Joe Biden stumble through a disastrous debate performance that led to the end of his 2024 reelection campaign, the former first lady said in a recent interview.

“I was frightened, because I had never ever seen Joe like that before or since. Never,” Jill Biden told CBS News in an interview scheduled to air Sunday.

Joe Biden’s shaky, mumbling and sometimes confused delivery against Donald Trump in June 2024 gave fuel to questions voters already had about his fitness for a second term. His attempts to explain away his performance and offer reassurance that he could handle four more years of the demanding job did little to assuage voters. Under mounting pressure from within his party, he stepped aside, and Democrats nominated Vice President Kamala Harris.

“I don’t know what happened,” Jill Biden said in the interview. “As I watched it, I thought, ‘Oh, my God, he’s having a stroke.’ And it scared me to death.”

The former first lady is promoting a book due out next week, “View from the East Wing: A Memoir.”

Trump Siccs The DOJ On E. Jean Carroll!

Trump retaliates against his accuser.

President Donald J. Trump is a damn near 80 year curmudgeon. He is a flagrant abuser of the Constitution. Damn shame that people are willing to vote for this chaos.

E. Jean Carroll, the writer who claimed Trump sexually assaulted her in the 1990s won a civil lawsuit against him.

Trump is an adjudicated sexual predator.

E. Jean Carroll won millions in damages in two separate cases against the president, one that found him liable for sexual assault in 2023 and one that found Trump defamed her the following year. Both decisions were upheld on appeal, though the president has appealed the sexual assault case yet again, this time to the Supreme Court, which has postponed its choice on whether or not to take up the case twelve separate times, including on Wednesday.

Also on Wednesday came CNN’s report that Trump’s Justice Department has begun a criminal investigation into Carroll surrounding the possibility that she committed perjury when she claimed in a 2022 deposition that her lawsuit against the president was not funded by any outside backers. Billionaire Reid Hoffman, Carroll’s lawyers later told the judge, paid some of her legal fees.

Carroll’s legal team claimed she had no association with the Hoffmans’ nonprofit that helped pay the fees, and the judge allowed Trump’s lawyers to question Carroll in another deposition, though they were blocked from further questions about Hoffman during the trial.

“We can confirm that no U.S. Attorney’s Office has declined to investigate any case relating to the subject matter of CNN’s inquiry,” a Justice Department spokesperson told CNN. “We will not comment beyond that.”

Sources told the outlet the location of the case in Chicago is due to Hoffman’s nonprofit, which is located in the city.

Carroll’s team declined to comment to CNN, and the outlet’s attempts to reach Hoffman on Wednesday were unsuccessful

250 Years Of Waste!

The optics are really bad.

If Joe Biden, Barack Obama or Bill Clinton done this, you would hear endless griping from Fox, Newsmax, Republicans and the agitators of far right gaslighting us about how the taxpayers are always footing the bill for some dumb shit.

The UFC confirms it will host an event at The White House. While people are complaining about the price of gas, the price of groceries, the price of insurance premiums, the frustration with their jobs, the frustration with elitism, President Donald J. Trump, a damn near 80 year old curmudgeon spending millions to host an event with his billionaire buddies Dana White and Vince McManon. 

Who's gonna have the money to pay for this shit?

Iran vows to make the United States pay for their aggression. Iran is willing to cripple the world's economy to put the spotlight on how white supremacy is affecting everyone.

The U.S., Israel and Russia are the most hated countries.

Crews are erecting an octagon-shaped cage on the South Lawn that will host next month’s UFC bout, helping mark the nation’s 250th anniversary — and President Donald Trump ‘s 80th birthday.

Online renderings depict what the completed, wire-mesh-fence-ringed fight space is expected to look like ahead of the June 14 event. It will be ringed by a red, white and blue stage under a towering arch featuring stars and stripes patterns and two large screens carrying the action live.

The cage and stage will themselves be surrounded by thousands of temporary seats, including ringside space for a full marching band that can set the entire scene to blaring music.

The project is part of a series of events celebrating the semiquincentennial of the Declaration of Independence’s signing on July 4, 1776. Other planned functions include an IndyCar race that will pass by the White House and the Great American State Fair taking place on the National Mall.

Trump has said that the finished UFC project will feature “a 5,000-seat arena right outside the front door of the White House.” Additional large screens broadcasting the fights will be set up in a park at the nearby Ellipse, and the UFC has said it plans to issue as many as 85,000 free tickets to accommodate spectators at both locations.

“I have never seen anybody want anything so much as people want those tickets,” Trump said recently of demand to attend the UFC fight, adding, “That’s gonna be something.”

The card has been panned by fans online as underwhelming, featuring just two championship fights. Brazil’s Alex Pereira will meet France’s Ciryl Gane for the interim UFC heavyweight title. Then Spanish-Georgian lightweight champion Ilia Topuria takes on interim champ Justin Gaethje, one of just two Americans who currently hold even a share of the UFC’s 11 championship belts.

The octagon and surrounding structures are the latest project in the White House building boom Trump is leading.

The president’s other efforts to leave his mark include tearing up part of the Rose Garden to make room for a patio space reminiscent of his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, affixing partisan plaques to the wall of the colonnade for a Presidential Walk of Fame, redoing the bathroom attached to the Lincoln Bedroom and renovating the Palm Room, placing new flag poles on the north and south lawns and demolishing the entire East Wing for a sprawling ballroom.

The president also wants to repaint the Eisenhower Executive Office Building beside the White House and build a 250-foot arch at the nearby Lincoln Memorial — the same monument where weigh-ins for the upcoming UFC fight are scheduled to take place, bout organizers say.

Far Right Wants Alberta To Break From Canada!

White North.

President Donald J. Trump wants to spread his version of freedom in The North.

He literally threatened to make Canada the 51st State.

Far right politicians who oppose Prime Minister Mark Carney are trying to break from the dominion. Canada made of 10 provinces and three territories is the second largest land mass in the world. 

Alaska, Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine are the states that border Canada either through land or water.

Russia, United States, Norway, Greenland, the French territory St. Pierre and Miquelon border Canada.

British Colombia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nunavut, Northwest Territories and Yukon make up the Dominion.

Ontario is the most populated province. The largest city is Toronto.

The national capital is Ottawa, located in Ontario is the fourth largest city that is not a federal district.

Quebec is the only province with 94% of its residents speaking French. 6% speak multi languages. New Brunswick has 35% of its residents speaking French. Ontario has 10% speaking French.

Most of Canada is remote. So if you get lost, you are lost.

Quebec is trying to form their own government where they can oversee their own values.

Alberta, the Canadian equivalent to Idaho and Oklahoma want to break away and have autonomy with the United States.

Carney on Monday compared Alberta’s vote on whether to move toward independence to Brexit, calling it a potential “dangerous bluff.”

Carney said if Alberta does it, they could lose big time.

Danielle Smith, the premier of Canada’s oil-rich province of Alberta, said last week a vote would be held Oct. 19 on whether Alberta should stay in Canada or take legal steps under the Constitution to hold a binding referendum on leaving.

Carney drew on his experience with Brexit in his comments. Carney was the governor of the Bank of England in 2016 when Britain voted to leave the European Union, and he helped navigate the central bank through it.

“I saw firsthand what happened in the United Kingdom when the view was, ‘Vote for this, it’ll be soft and then we’ll negotiate, etc.,’ Carney said. “They’re still 10 years later trying to undo what people didn’t think they were voting for, but what they ended up having.”

Smith’s party didn’t run on or mention a referendum in the last provincial election campaign.

Carney said the vote is not helpful when he’s trying to attract investment to Canada. He suggested it is undemocratic.

“Is it the democratic will of Albertans? Did they vote for this in the last provincial election? No, they didn’t. It wasn’t on the ballot paper,” Carney said.

Smith has said she supports Alberta remaining in Canada. Some have compared her stance to the one of Britain’s then-Prime Minister David Cameron ahead of the Brexit referendum, which he embraced as a way to manage a vocal faction of his ruling party while not wanting the U.K. to leave the European Union.

Carney is working on getting a new oil pipeline built from Alberta to Canada’s Pacific coast. Many Albertans have long complained that Ottawa hasn’t done enough to get Alberta’s vast oil reserves to Asian markets.

“We have to be very careful about this. There’s a very strong positive case for Canada, a strong Alberta in a united Canada,” Carney said. “I look forward to making that case with many, many other Albertans and Canadians over the course of the next 150 days.”

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is not in favor of separation.

Responding to Carney’s comments Monday, Smith said separation is an issue for Albertans alone to decide.

“Albertans’ frustrations have been fueled by the last 10 years of disastrous policies from Ottawa under … Justin Trudeau,” Smith said in a statement from her office, referencing the previous prime minister.

“I would also remind all Canadians that we should not dismiss the legitimate grievances of Albertans. Instead, we should focus on addressing these issues, restoring hope in Canada, and demonstrating that our country can work and is working.”

if Alberta leaves the dominion. All its citizens could lose citizenship. They will have to give up their passports and pay for new passports to enter Canada or the United States.

Also the indigenous First Nation residents will likely oppose a move as it violates their sovereignty.

The tax revenue from Ottawa will likely dry up and the Canadian government will no longer provide assistance or financial support to Alberta. 

Albertans will have to debate on whether they establish their own confederation where some may eventually protest it and violently fight to stay Canadian.

Others will have to make arrangements to assure their lives are not upended through an independence movement.

It is a colossal mess and I believe the U.S. and Israeli interests are involved in this.

Israel wants to put a footprint in Alberta.

Edmonton is the capital of Alberta. It has a population of 693,000 residents. 

Cornyn Out!

Are you still gonna name future Interstate 47 after Trump?

James Talarico will have a challenge. He will have to prove to Texas that Democrats can improve the Long Star State. He will now have a Republican opponent who will run on the same energy President Donald J. Trump had.

Attorney General Ken Paxton will be the Republican senate nominee defeating incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX).

Paxton won the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate on Tuesday, defeating four-term Cornyn in the latest contest where Trump sought to defeat an incumbent he saw as not sufficiently loyal.

Trump endorsed Paxton last week. Paxton’s victory in Tuesday’s runoff makes Cornyn the first Republican senator from Texas to lose the party’s nomination for reelection.

Cheers rang through the ballroom at Paxton’s election night party when the race was called, as Van Halen’s “Jump” played and the stage filled with supporters holding Paxton campaign signs.

Cornyn’s campaign and allied groups spent roughly $109 million on advertising for the March 3 primary and Tuesday’s runoff. He had the backing of Senate GOP leaders who said he would be the stronger general election candidate.

But Trump endorsed Paxton as part of his effort to dislodge GOP officeholders he views as less than devout in their support of him. Cornyn said in 2023 as Trump was running to return to the White House that his time “has passed him by.”

Paxton will run against Talarico in November.

Tuesday’s runoffs also will decide Democratic U.S. House nominees for districts in Dallas and Houston that overwhelmingly support Democrats, and a San Antonio-area seat the party wants to flip.

The Paxton Express.

The primary has been long and costly

Cornyn led Paxton in the March primary but failed to win a majority. That was after Cornyn and his supporters waged a monthslong ad campaign, mostly attacking Paxton over ethical and personal questions. The two-term attorney general was acquitted on corruption charges in a 2023 impeachment trial, where allegations of extramarital affairs surfaced. Paxton’s wife filed for divorce last year, citing “biblical grounds.”

The alliance of pro-Cornyn groups has continued its attack, outspending Paxton’s campaign and two allied super PACs $16.5 million to $5.9 million since March 3, according to the ad-tracking firm AdImpact.

Trump promised to endorse immediately after the primary but didn’t act until after early voting began last week.

“Ken Paxton has gone through a lot, in many cases, very unfairly, but he is a Fighter, and knows how to win,” Trump wrote in a social media post endorsing him.

David Jacobson, a retired 70-year-old Dallas-area resident, said Trump’s endorsement was a factor in his decision to back Paxton on Tuesday. While Cornyn has for the most part been a strong Trump supporter, Jacobson generally thinks most politicians have remained in office too long.

“Maybe it’s time for a change,” he said after voting near Dallas.

Linda Williams said she voted for Cornyn, calling him “the lesser of two evils.” She thinks Cornyn has a better chance to beat Talarico this fall.

“Because Paxton is a crook,” Williams said after voting in Plano, outside Dallas.

Trump snubs Cornyn amid retribution campaign

Trump, in his endorsement, poked at Cornyn, saying he “was not supportive of me when times were tough” and that “John was very late in backing me.”

Cornyn suggested in 2023 that Trump could not win the presidency again in 2024 and that his “time has passed him by.” He also was an early critic of Trump’s plan for a border wall between the U.S. and Mexico — a project he now supports.

Cornyn said Tuesday on Fox News Radio’s “The Brian Kilmeade Show” that the president’s ire was misplaced. There are “grifters,” he said, “claiming that I am opposed to the president’s agenda, and I think that’s caused some confusion with the president himself. But I’ve been supportive.”

Some GOP strategists have argued that a Paxton nomination would cost millions of dollars more to promote in the fall, when money could be spent defending Republican seats in more competitive states. Democrats need to gain a net of four seats to take the majority. Cornyn has the support of Senate GOP leaders.

Rep. Christian Menefee (D-TX) beats Rep. Al Green (D-TX). Green tried a desperate play to run in a district that Menefee just won in a special election.

Democrats also will choose US House nominees

Newly elected Rep. Christian Menefee defeated veteran Rep. Al Green in Texas’ 18th District, dispatching a longtime House incumbent who was one of Trump’s most outspoken critics. The Republican-led Texas Legislature redrew the district when it approved a new House map last year. The new map led to a runoff between incumbents and marks the end of a dizzying series of elections in the Houston area.

Former Rep. Colin Allred and U.S. Rep. Julie Johnson are competing in the Dallas-area 33rd District. Johnson was elected to the seat in 2024, the year Allred lost his U.S. Senate challenge to Republican Sen. Ted Cruz. Allred was running for Senate again this cycle but dropped his bid and instead is looking to return to the House.

Near San Antonio, Democratic leaders are trying to prevent Maureen Galindo, who has expressed antisemitic views, from winning the party’s runoff with Johnny Garcia. While Texas lawmakers redrew the 35th District to help Republicans, Democrats view it as within reach and don’t want Galindo’s past comments to impede them.

Again, the Democrats and Republicans are more upset over Galindo calling for the jailing of Zionists than a bunch of lawmakers funding a fucking genocide.

I swear the Democrats are their own worst enemy.

MAGA Fanatic Got A Curb Sandwich! Suspect Got Murder Rap!

MAGA fanatic got beaten to death.

Don't give me that bullshit about respect one another when it comes to politics?

Y'all still calling us the word with the "-er" and think about us like we are the biggest threat to your daily life. Hate to break it to you buddy boy and buddy girl, "we just want to be left alone." 

But you keep pushing....

And pushing....

And then when divine intervention happens, you want the world to be nice and sympathetic. Since Google restrict certain themes, I am not allowed to discuss certain elements thanks to the foreign nation that got the U.S. into an endless war.

Y'all paying high gas, high groceries, high insurance premiums, high rent, high commedities and you still riding with this fool.

You do you.

Hell, I hope you don't get screwed by that fool. Because the fool will never meet you.

He will use you as a prop and then discard you and move on to the next theme.

Fox and Newsmax don't give two coins about you either. By watching them, you are practically protecting the elite. Whereas Sean "Softball" Hannity is swimming in his $40 million dollar mansion in Florida while you are struggling to put $70 into your ride.

Pretty obsessive.

C'mon man.

Y'all were calling all that support for Barack Obama a cult. Now you got people over here decorating their homes, putting up statues and buying merchandise with the likeness.

Donald John Trump, Sr., the 45th/47th President Of The United States does not give a fuck about you, me, his own children and his own wife. He cares about his curmudgeon legacy.

For the next two years, we will deal with the possibility of an economic collapse, global war and a civil war. 

Waving around flags, celebrating the 250 years of white supremacy and colonialism and decking out your home with Trump propaganda is your free speech. I am not here to stop you from worshiping an idiot.

But be careful how you approach people. Some people will bring their ancestors out and take your ass out. I mean Chud The Builder, you got anything to say about it?

Nevermind.

Hey, where's Charlie Kirk at?

Oh, I forgot. Psyche, I didn't.

San Diego man gets a curb stomping after a confrontation with a critic. He dies and the suspect faces second degree murder. His wife now a widow vows to keep his legacy of decking out their home with American flags and tributes to President Donald J. Trump going.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Suspect being held on assault charges. Now that the victim died, murder

Maria Sheron says her husband is fighting for his life, and doctors are asking her to make an impossible decision, this after Kerry Sheron, a 69-year-old army vet, was jumped and beaten nearly to death outside of their Escondido home.

Sheron, a passionate Trump supporter, has been well known in town for rallying outside his house daily, supporting Donald Trump. Neighbors picking up where Kerry left off, with dozens of Trump supporters gathering outside the Sheron home, carrying flags and wearing MAGA hats to show their support for Trump and the Sheron family.

Investigators in the attack have identified no official motive, but neighbors who are Trump supporters believe the violence was politically inspired.

“If we don’t have freedom to put flags on our own homes, then we don’t have freedom,” said Christine Browne, a Trump supporter who drove from an hour away to be here.

“Things were not like this. People were not fighting about race, people were not fighting about political beliefs. My own daughter won’t talk to me and has not talked to me in a year, because of my political beliefs,” said neighbor Cheryl Piner.

Neighbors gathered to pray for Kerry and Maria.

“We are going to show him we love him and support him and that’s why we are here.”

The organizer of the Vigil and Trump Rally says he needed to show a way to help the Sheron family.

Newsflash, prayers don't pay the bills or feed the families. Fucking platitudes.

I got a toothache, you can't pray that away. It requires a dentist or orthodontist to get proper care. No amount of quack science can stop a toothache. Even I can't pray that away nor delay it forever.

Cleaning The Rust!

Dayton has a very slow rebound.

The Rust is getting oiled. 

Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa and Minnesota are called the Rust Belt.

Cities like Dayton, Akron, Fort Wayne, Flint, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Youngstown, Gary, Racine, Milwaukee, Saginaw, Midland, Evansville, Peoria, Springfield (Illinois), St. Louis, Davenport, Toledo, Huntington, Charleston (West Virginia), Buffalo, Rochester, Binghamton, Syracuse Wheeling, Washington (Pennsylvania), Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Allentown, Altoona, Johnstown, Birmingham and Knoxville are often labeled Rust Belt cities.

Is there a possible migration wave?

The Sun Belt is being overwhelmed. People who are leaving the Rust Belt for the warmth, limited regulations and likely racism, are now being burdened with the cost of living, the deadlier weather events, unpopular politicians and buyer's remorse are now trying to return.

It is affordable for people to live in the Rust Belt. But when people are migrating back to the region, it drives up costs.

Capitalism at its worst.

The Rust Belt experienced industrial decline beginning in the 1950s and 1960s, with manufacturing peaking as a percentage of U.S. GDP in 1953 and declining incrementally in subsequent years and especially in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Demand for coal declined as industry turned to oil and natural gas, and U.S. steel was undercut by competition from Germany and Japan. High labor costs in the Rust Belt were also a factor in encouraging the region's heavy manufacturing companies to relocate to the Sun Belt or overseas or to discontinue entirely. The U.S. automotive industry also declined as consumers turned to fuel-efficient foreign-manufactured vehicles after the 1973 oil crisis raised the cost of gasoline and foreign auto manufacturers began opening factories in the U.S., which were largely not strongly unionized like the U.S. auto manufacturers in the Rust Belt. Families moved away from Rust Belt communities, leaving cities with falling tax revenues, declining infrastructure, and abandoned buildings.

Major Rust Belt cities include Baltimore, Buffalo, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Detroit, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Rochester, and St. Louis. New England was also hit hard by industrial decline, but cities closer to the East Coast, including in the metropolitan areas of Boston, New York, and Washington, D.C. were able to quickly adapt by diversifying or transforming their economies, shifting to services, advanced manufacturing, and high-tech industries. 

Similarly, parts of cities otherwise unaffected by the Rust Belt declined as a result of industrial dependence; such as Gert Town in New Orleans and South Los Angeles.

Since the 1980s, presidential candidates have devoted much of their time to the economic concerns of the Rust Belt region, which includes several populous swing states, including Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. These states were crucial to Republican Donald Trump's victories in the 2016 and 2024 presidential elections.

Colbert's Surprise Return To Monroe!

CBS ruffled by Colbert hosting a parody of his former show.

Stephen Colbert may have lost his late night program but the comedian is not done.

He has made a surprise return to the independent circuit and CBS is big mad.

Only in Monroe, a real public access program had Colbert return to hosting. He had famed Michigan celebrities Jeff Daniels, Jack White and Eminem as his guests.

On Thursday, the Late Show came to an emotional end. Colbert and his final guest, Sir. Paul McCartney have made a public diss of Larry and his son David Ellison. 

CBS immediately filled the gap by adding Byron Allen's Comics Unleashed, a syndicated program that promises to keep it about jokes and not politics.

Paramount Skydance was trying to pull Only in Monroe programs because they wanted to claim them as segments of The Late Show.

The episode also included appearances by the regular hosts of the show, Michelle Baumann and Kaye Lani Rafko-Wilson. Together with Colbert and White, they cheers with shots of River Raisin Distillery spirits "to Michigan and all of its lakes and tributaries." Later, they imbibe in shots of helium while discussing Baumann's experience with cancer. She is in remission, she said on the show.

Monroe, a city located in southern Michigan is a midpoint between Detroit and Toledo.

It has a population of 22,000 residents. 

Colbert's final show drew nearly 11 million.

Deal Or No Deal!

The feud between Ted Cruz and President Donald J. Trump starts again.

As we enter Memorial Day, the unofficial start of Summer, Americans are angry at the prices of gas, the prices of groceries, the closing of long established companies and the tone deaf politicians, entertainers, athletes and influencers telling you to get over it.

This aggression with Iran was a huge mistake and it will be sealed in Donald J. Trump's curmudgeon legacy.

Did you know Americans are cutting off friends and family members who support the president?

The 45th/47th President Of The United States is ranked 44 of 45 men who served as the American president. Trump is the worst president of the 21st Century. Followed by George W. Bush and Joe Biden, Trump has finally made me and probably others believe that white men are the reasons why our country is fucked up.

I am starting to realize that white men as the president has lead us to endless conflicts, massive debt and policies that are not moving our country forward. The presidents of past and current often want to be the leader of the world. 

It is time for the U.S. to stop being the global leader and be a global partner. It is time for the world to see the United States as a problem. Rolling back freedoms, violating domestic and international laws have put concerns on our status as a functional democracy.

We may be at the risk of a civil war. 

Republicans are angered over the president announcing a possible permanent ceasefire with Iran. 

Iran has dismissed this claiming its an attempt to drive markets come Tuesday. 

The hardline pro Israel, pro war and pro vilify critics wing of the Republican Party are pissed that the president is considering "caving" Iran.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) sparred with one of Trump's outside advisers on social media Saturday after indicating he was “deeply concerned” about the terms of an emerging deal between the U.S. and Iran.

“I am deeply concerned about what we are hearing about an Iran ‘deal,’ being pushed by some voices in the administration,” Cruz wrote on the social platform X.

Trump announced earlier in the day that a peace agreement with Tehran had been “largely negotiated” and would include reopening the Strait of Hormuz, but offered few details otherwise.

“Final aspects and details of the Deal are currently being discussed, and will be announced shortly,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

He notably made no mention of what would happen with Iran’s nuclear program or its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, which had long been a sticking point in stalled negotiations. Senior Trump administration officials justified the initial strikes in late February by claiming the country posed an imminent nuclear threat to the U.S.

If it is perceived in the region that a deal with Iran allows the regime to survive and become more powerful over time, we will have poured gasoline on the conflicts in Lebanon and Iraq.

“One of the worst deals ever made by our Country was the Iran Nuclear Deal, put forth and signed into existence by Barack Hussein Obama and the rank amateurs of the Obama Administration,” Trump wrote. “It was a direct path to Iran developing a Nuclear Weapon. Not so with the transaction currently being negotiated with Iran by the Trump Administration – THE EXACT OPPOSITE, in fact!”

Cruz called that February decision “the most consequential” of Trump’s second term, arguing it had achieved “extraordinary military results,” including the purported destruction of Iran’s missiles, drones and navy.

“If the result of all that is to be an Iranian regime—still run by Islamists who chant ‘death to America’—now receiving billions of dollars, being able to enrich uranium & develop nuclear weapons, and having effective control over the Strait of Hormuz, then that outcome would be a disastrous mistake,” the senator wrote.

His criticism echoed that of several other hawkish Senate Republicans who also argued on Saturday that any deal that allows the current Iranian regime to remain in power could embolden them — a rare moment of discord between the president and his usually steadfast GOP allies.

That assessment did not sit well with Alex Bruesewitz, an outside adviser who was the architect of Trump’s podcast strategy in the 2024 presidential campaign.

“Cool, Ted. No one asked you, bro,” Bruesewitz responded on X, accusing Cruz of trying to undermine the president and his administration.

“Hush, child. The adults are talking,” Cruz shot back. “I’m not your ‘bro.’ And young political grifters pushing Iran appeasement are not remotely helping the President.”

Bruesewitz labeled the Texas Republican a “clown” in a separate post, saying he had “zero clue” what is in the deal.

“Ted is a do-nothing Senator rushing out ahead of the potential deal because he’s already positioning for 2028 and plans to use this as a wedge against our candidate,” he wrote. “The deal could be the greatest deal in the world (which it might be!) and he would still complain about it.”

The proposed deal framework would officially declare an end to the nearly three-month conflict and establish 60 days of negotiation on Iran’s nuclear program, a regional official with direct knowledge of the Pakistan-led mediation efforts told The Associated Press.

It would also see the Strait of Hormuz reopened and the U.S. lift its naval blockade of Iranian ports, according to the outlet.  

Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Rick Scott (R-FL), John Fetterman (I-PA), Tom Cotton (R-AR), Katie Britt (R-AL) and Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) are the most fiercest supporters of Israel. They often vote in favor of unlimited access to the president and Israel.
