Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry is coming for your wallet. With a looming budget shortfall, the mayor announced the triple whammy: budget cuts, city layoffs, and a projected 11–13% property tax increase — all landing on homeowners who are already carrying the full weight of a city in fiscal free fall.The math isn't complicated. Downtown Minneapolis lost an estimated $3 billion in commercial tax base as office towers sold for pennies on the dollar and businesses abandoned their leases. When commercial real estate collapses, that burden doesn't disappear — it lands on residential homeowners, the people whose addresses don't move. Chicago's Brandon Johnson is staring down the same reckoning, and it's only going to get worse.And then there's the police overtime line item. The Minneapolis Police Department is already running $21 million over budget, years after the city defunded and demoralized its force. Residents have quietly stopped reporting crime. Fixed-income homeowners are getting squeezed harder every year. Actions have consequences — and Minneapolis is living them out in real time.Subscribe to @reasonablenews for daily commentary on the stories the mainstream media buries.

Mayor Brandon Johnson is hemorrhaging his finance team at exactly the wrong moment. In the span of a week, Chicago's mayor lost two of his top three financial advisors — and his response was a press conference where he told residents that his presence is the constant, the continuity, the stability the city needs.That's the plan heading into a $1 billion budget shortfall. Johnson's city just absorbed a credit rating downgrade to BBB+, aldermen are openly saying there's no plan to move forward, and the administration's answer is that Brandon Johnson himself is the point of stability. The revolving door keeps spinning while Chicago's finances keep deteriorating.Sean breaks down what this looks like from the outside — a progressive blue city burning through leadership and credibility in the run-up to one of the toughest budget seasons it has faced. Structural problems don't get papered over by a single personality. The departure spin, the Reddit mockery of the Guzman exit, and the aldermen with nowhere to turn all tell the same story: Chicago is heading into budget season without a plan and without a team.Subscribe to @reasonablenews and hit the notification bell — this one is not going to have a happy landing.#NFRP #BrandonJohnson #ChicagoGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS

S05E158 — “The Crater Makers” · Tuesday 4 August 2026. Four stories on cosmic impacts — and a new map of the X-ray sky — plus a both-hemispheres skywatch. ① A dead Falcon 9 is about to crater the Moon ●        A spent SpaceX Falcon 9 upper stage (catalogued 2025-010D) is predicted to strike the Moon near Einstein Crater on 5 Aug 2026 at ~06:35 UTC — the second documented uncontrolled rocket impact on the Moon. ●        The stage launched Firefly's Blue Ghost and ispace's Resilience landers in Jan 2025, then was stranded in a chaotic Earth orbit for ~18 months. Impact speed ~2.4 km/s (~5,400 mph); expected crater ~17–27 m across. ●        Prediction by Bill Gray (Project Pluto). NASA's LRO can image the site before and after; a ~two-dozen-author campaign is coordinating observers to chase the ejecta plume. ●        Governance angle: no international framework governs cislunar debris — a growing hazard as lunar traffic increases (callback to E154's distant-retrograde-orbit debris study). Sources: Space.com / Forbes / Reuters (Cris Tolomia) — impact preview, 31 Jul–3 Aug 2026  ·  Project Pluto (Bill Gray) — 2025-010D impact page  ·  ZME Science — impact timing, 3 Aug 2026 ② Neptune's inner moons: shrapnel of a shattered world ●        JWST NIRSpec spectroscopy of Neptune's inner moons Larissa, Galatea and Proteus (Caltech; lead author Ryleigh Davis, Mike Brown's group) detected magnesium-rich phyllosilicates — clay minerals that require liquid water and had never been seen beyond Jupiter. ●        The clays imply the material came from much larger, water-bearing worlds — evidence that Neptune's original regular moon system was destroyed when Triton (a captured Kuiper Belt object) arrived. ●        Proteus, the largest of the three, lacks the clays — possibly re-heated and reprocessed after re-forming, hiding its history. Sources: Davis et al., Science Advances, 29 July 2026  ·  Caltech / phys.org press coverage, 29 Jul–3 Aug 2026  ·  Space.com (Charles Q. Choi), 3 Aug 2026 ③ “Charbroiled within hours”: impact dust and the dinosaurs ●        New modelling (Brandon Johnson et al., Purdue) argues ultrafine impact dust from Chicxulub acted as an insulating blanket, raising surface heating ~3.5× above the spherule-only estimate — enough to ignite global wildfires and kill exposed animals within hours. ●        The same dust then blocked sunlight for years — so the model adds a ferocious opening act to the established “impact winter,” rather than replacing it. Sheltering underground or underwater aided survival. ●        Caveat: the strongest physical wildfire evidence is so far confined to North America (per UCL's Alfio Chiarenza, not involved in the study); a truly global fire record remains unconfirmed. Sources: Johnson, Johnson, Wakita & Robertson, JGR: Biogeosciences, 2026  ·  Popular Science / Space.com / ZME Science, 28 Jul–2 Aug 2026 ④ eROSITA DR2 — the X-ray sky doubles ●        The eROSITA telescope (SRG mission) released its second data set (DR2) on 31 July 2026: ~1.9 million pointlike and ~64,000 extended X-ray sources from the first three all-sky scans — nearly doubling the previously released eROSITA catalogue. ●        For scale: ROSAT catalogued ~130,000 sources in the 1990s and was the benchmark for 30 years. Lead author: Miriam Ramos-Ceja (MPE). ●        DR2 delivers the first direct census of cataclysmic-variable binaries sufficient to explain the decades-old Galactic Ridge X-ray Emission. It coincides with SDSS DR20 (Black Hole Mapper), enabling 3D mapping of active black holes. Sources: Ramos-Ceja et al. (eROSITA-DE), arXiv:2607.27772; DR2 release  ·  Max Planck Society press release, 29 July 2026  ·  phys.org, 31 Jul 2026 Skywatch — both hemispheres ●        Falcon 9 impact (5 Aug, ~06:35 UTC): not naked-eye; ejecta plume a long shot for advanced amateurs in the Americas near the western limb (~2:35 a.m. EDT). Sydney: Moon below horizon — watch for LRO after-images. ●        Comet 10P/Tempel 2: perihelion 2 Aug, closest to Earth 3 Aug (~0.41 AU); ~mag 8–9 near M30 in Capricornus. Best return of the century; Southern-Hemisphere-favoured; Northern viewers low on the southern horizon. Darkest window ~7–8 Aug. ●        This evening: Venus threads between Regulus (Leo) and Spica (Virgo) in the west — both hemispheres, no equipment. Mercury at its best morning showing (greatest western elongation 2 Aug), low in the pre-dawn east. ●        Diary — 12 Aug: total solar eclipse (Greenland/Iceland/Spain), moonless Perseid peak, six-planet alignment.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is proposing a $100 million-plus Department of Gun Violence Prevention — a sprawling new bureaucracy pushed by activist groups like Live Free Illinois to consolidate existing programs under a single government roof. The proposal landed right after one of the bloodiest weekends of the year: 43 people shot or killed across Father's Day and Juneteenth, a 105% spike that only stopped short of 50 because it rained and people stayed inside.Sean breaks down the proposed ordinance, the advocacy machine behind it, and the mayor's deer-in-headlights press conference — then asks the obvious question: if Chicago already bans most guns and already spends millions on violence programs, what does another layer of government actually solve? The city rejected ShotSpotter as racist while the body count climbed. Rinse and repeat.Meanwhile the ledger tells the real story. Millions flow to criminal illegal aliens on the government dole while Roseland holds a mass shooting and heyjackass.com updates in real time. Sean walks through the weekend roundup, draws the comparison to Seattle, and lands on the uncomfortable bottom line: Chicago's leadership has chosen its priorities — and its own citizens aren't at the top of the list.CHAPTERS0:00 The Blue City Playbook: Chicago…1:27 Chicago Mayor Proposes Gun Violence…2:13 Blaming Guns, Not the Shooters2:56 Mayor Johnson's Vague Crime Response3:45 $100 Million Spent, 43 Shot Last Weekend4:29 Live Free Illinois Pushes Ordinance5:06 Chicago Rejected ShotSpotter as Racist5:56 Father's Day Weekend Shootings Surge…6:43 27 Shot in Chicago on Juneteenth7:52 Mayor Johnson at a Loss on Shootings8:53 Mass Shooting in Roseland: 13 Shot10:33 Chicago Shooting Volume Dwarfs Seattle's11:44 Chicago Spent Millions on Migrants…13:28 Will Anything Change in Chicago?Subscribe to @reasonablenews and hit the notification bell so you never miss an episode.#MediaBias #MainstreamMedia #CensorshipGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson's administration secretly submitted a $3.3 billion bid to buy back the city's infamous parking meter system — and that bid was higher than the winning offer of $2.53 billion from investment firm Stonepeak. The bombshell dropped during a City Council hearing when a Stonepeak executive casually revealed Chicago's losing number, leaving aldermen furious and demanding answers the mayor hasn't provided.The original 2008 parking meter privatization under Mayor Richard M. Daley was already one of Chicago's most notorious fiscal disasters. Now Brandon Johnson quietly tried to top it — with a multibillion-dollar secret offer taxpayers knew nothing about, shielded for years by NDAs that only lifted in June 2026. Chicago bid nearly $800 million above what it took to actually win the deal.Aldermen are demanding the Law Department explain how a mayor who can't even finance a buyback submitted a bid that high without council approval or public disclosure. This is big-city government failure on a scale that should embarrass everyone involved — and as Sean puts it, Brandon Johnson has zero business running a city this size.Subscribe to @reasonablenews for daily coverage of the stories the mainstream media won't tell you straight.#Seattle #Socialism #WashingtonPoliticsGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS

Alderpeople learned last Thursday that Mayor Brandon Johnson's administration secretly offered about $3.3 billion last fall to reclaim control of the city's parking meters — a whopping $800 million more than the next-highest bidder. In a statement afterward, a spokesperson for the mayor said when Johnson decided to drop the city's bid in January, he highlighted the high cost of regaining control of the meters.

Hour 3 of The Marc Cox Morning Show delivers the kind of truth-telling that the mainstream media refuses to touch. Former St. Louis County Police Chief Tim Fitch opens the hour pulling back the curtain on Sam Page's calculated power play — using the county jail staffing crisis as a political weapon against the county council while local law enforcement and ordinary St. Louis residents pay the price. Derrick Morgan of the Heritage Foundation joins to sound the alarm on a nation approaching its 250th birthday with only 31% of Democrats saying they are proud to be Americans, a Democratic Socialist wave threatening major American cities, and a SAVE Act showdown that will force every politician in Washington to show their true colors. Sarah Parshall Perry of Defending Education exposes how Missouri State University was running secret campus thought police — allowing students to anonymously report classmates for pronoun violations — until Defending Education took them to federal court and shut it down. Then Kim St. Onge closes the hour with the story that perfectly captures how far off the rails the radical left has gone — Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson declaring a transfemicide state of emergency in a city where thirty-nine people were shot over one weekend and not a single victim was transgender. Hour 4 is straight ahead and it only gets better from here.

It's Monday, June 1st, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Egypt grants legal status to 191 church buildings The Egyptian government released an order the week of May 18th granting legal status to 191 church buildings that previously lacked official recognition, reports International Christian Concern. In total, 3,804 churches and related buildings have been approved since the creation of a committee to review churches in 2016, according to Christian Solidarity Worldwide.  Thousands of churches and associated buildings have been built in recent decades. Still, the northeast African country of Egypt maintains a system for approving Christian places of worship that is separate from — and more difficult than — that for Sunni Muslim places of worship. According to Open Doors, Egypt is the 42nd most oppressive country worldwide for Christians. Pope Leo meets with pro-abort, pro-sex perversion Chicago mayor On May 28th, Pope Leo XIV met in a private audience with radical Chicago Democratic mayor Brandon Johnson, during which they reportedly discussed ICE raids in the city, slavery reparations, and the Iran war, but not key moral issues such as abortion and the homosexual transgender agenda, both of which Mayor Johnson supports, reports LifeSiteNews.com. The mayor has a radically pro-abortion and pro-sexual perversion record, previously pledging to offer free Abortion Kill Pills and to prosecute pro-life sidewalk counselors. And, in 2024, the mayor commemorated “National Abortion Provider Appreciation Day.” At the time, Chicago Mayor Johnson said, “We commend the bravery and resilience of abortion providers and look forward to continuing to support their efforts to ensure that reproductive rights are upheld and respected. Together, we can resist attempts to roll back the progress we have made, ensuring Chicago remains a sanctuary for choice.” Notice, he failed to mention that the choice the mother makes is the choice to murder her innocent pre-born baby boy or baby girl. In God's conversation with the prophet Jeremiah, He said, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.” (Jeremiah 1:5) Supreme Court Justice Amy Barrett targeted in attempted swatting U.S. Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett was the target of an apparent “swatting” attempt after an unknown caller falsely reported gunfire at her Virginia residence, reports The Christian Post. On May 27th, Fairfax County police said that a caller contacted the department's nonemergency line claiming to have heard shots fired at Barrett's home. Officers quickly coordinated with Supreme Court Police assigned to the residence and determined the report was false. Texas Governor Abbott blasted Democrat James Talarico Appearing on Fox News Channel, Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott blasted James Talarico, the Democrat Senatorial candidate, who will face off in the general election against Republican Ken Paxton for U.S. Senate this fall. Listen. ABBOTT: “Talarico himself said he has a record that he's going to run on. Let me tell you quickly about that record, about votes that he cast, not crazy things that he said. But he cast votes that support [Diversity, Equity and Inclusion] in our public schools, support defunding our law enforcement, supports boys in girls' sports, supports transition surgery for minors, supports a state income tax in the state of Texas, supports open border policies. “So, the votes he's cast set a record for how challenging he would be for any average Texan. You know, oftentimes you hear President Trump talk about a 90/10 issue, where 90% of the people are lined up on one side, 10% on the other side. Talarico's votes are on the 10% side.” How a small-town Arkansas man got God on America's money And finally, Matthew Rothert Sr., a Presbyterian furniture manufacturer and avid coin collector born in 1904, was at church in Chicago on June 21, 1953, when he believed the Holy Spirit impressed upon him the idea that the phrase "In God We Trust" should be featured on American banknotes as it did on coins, according to his daughter, Alice Rothert Nelson, reports The Christian Post. She said, "The collection plate was going around, and he felt God tell him that the coins had 'In God We Trust,' but it was the bills that went all around the world. And he believed he should get 'In God We Trust' on the bills of the paper money, and so that started the campaign." By way of background, "In God We Trust" was first engraved on U.S. coins during the Civil War, after Mark Richards Watkinson, a Baptist minister from Pennsylvania, petitioned then-Treasury Secretary Salmon Chase at the end of 1861 to promote "the recognition of the Almighty God in some form in our coins" amid the fading illusion of a short, relatively bloodless conflict. Pastor Watkinson told Chase, "You are probably a Christian. What if our Republic were now shattered beyond recognition? Would not the antiquaries, [those who study history], in succeeding centuries, rightly reason, from our part, we were a heathen nation?" He saw the increasingly brutal, intractable war as a divine chastening that could destroy the country. Expressing hope that honoring God in such a public way "would relieve us from the [disgrace] of heathenism." Watkinson noted, "This would place us openly under the divine protection we have personally claimed. From my heart, I have felt our national shame in disowning God." Salmon Chase and James Pollock, a Presbyterian minister then serving as director of the U.S. Mint, agreed with Watkinson, ultimately leading Congress to pass a law in April 1864 allowing "In God We Trust" on the one- and two-cent pieces. Pollock said, “We claim to be a Christian nation—why should we not vindicate our character by honoring the God of Nations. Our national coinage should do this. Its legends and devices should declare our trust in God—in Him who is "King of Kings and Lord of Lords." AUDIO FROM DIVINE HYMNS: “King of kings and Lord of lords. Glory Hallelujah. King of kings and Lord of lords. Glory Hallelujah.” Revelation 19:16 says, “On [Christ's] robe and on His thigh, He has this name written: 'King of kings and Lord of lords.'” The U.S. Congress passed another law in March 1865 to place the words on all gold and silver coins, which was the last act President Abraham Lincoln signed before his assassination. Nearly a century later, the motto gained renewed attention when the United States found itself embattled again during the global tensions of the Cold War. Seeing its simple declaration of faith as a necessary contrast to the atheist communism that animated the Soviet Union, Matthew Rothert followed Watkinson's example. He gave speeches, rallied support, and fired off many letters to officials, including President Dwight Eisenhower and Treasury Secretary George Humphrey, urging them to add the phrase to paper money. In a 1987 interview, Matthew Rothert, at the age of 83, said, "The Lord seemed to tell me to do this. He put the idea so strongly in my mind that I worked on it until I accomplished my goal. I realized the circulation of American coins was limited to the boundaries of the country, while U.S. paper money circulated worldwide.
