Does anyone know what is in this deal?! Sunday evening, the US and Iran signed (?) an agreement that would supposedly open the Strait of Hormuz and end the US naval blockade. The deal supposedly ends hostilities and opens parties up to negotiate on Iran's nuclear future over the 60-day period. What else is in the deal? No one knows! Will the deal hold up? Probably not! All parties involved in the negotiations said ending the war in Lebanon was part of the deal, yet Israel is still committed to their invasion. Stay tuned for the end, where the HITO men talk about the proliferation of data centers across the country, and what Democrats like Gretchen Whitmer aren't doing to stop them.

Events can always change things, but democrats are not on a good footing heading into the midterms.
Greg Kelly Reports | June 16, 2026 - The episode opens with sharp criticism of progressive cultural politics, arguing that Democratic opposition to Trump is tied to a broader defense of radical gender ideology, the sexualization of children, and values the show presents as fundamentally anti-American. - A major focus is the pending Iran memorandum of understanding, with the show defending a short, simple deal structure that centers on removing enriched uranium, blocking nuclear weapons, ending terror funding, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and allowing Iran back into the global economy under inspection. - Gavin Newsom is portrayed as politically desperate, using public complaints about federal scrutiny to cast himself as a victim while the episode raises new questions about his wife's nonprofit finances, her past Harvey Weinstein claims, and the couple's broader credibility. - The show highlights J.D. Vance's appearance on The View as another example of Democrats and left-leaning media figures being outmatched when forced into unscripted exchanges with sharper conservative voices. - The episode closes by revisiting June 16, 2015, framing Trump's escalator announcement as the moment that changed modern American politics and arguing that his rise has reshaped the country, its institutions, and the global balance of power ever since.

Vance's appearance on The View yesterday, where he spent his time eviscerating the wenches on that liberal woke panel. In other news of the day, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said former President Joe Biden made a "terrible mistake" by seeking reelection in 2024 - arguing the decision damaged his legacy and cost Democrats a chance to defeat President Donald Trump, and President Trump laid out the two primary components of his deal to end the war with Iran: Tehran will “never have a nuclear weapon” and the Strait of Hormuz will re-open and be "toll-free". Speaking at the G7 summit in France, Trump said the deal agreed between the two countries was "fair" and "good".

PLUS, Martha Byrne, Emmy Award-winning actress and author of In the Interest of Justice: One Woman's FIght Against a Weaponized Justice Department to Save Her Husband, tells Shaun how the Biden DOJ created a conspiracy against her husband (a highly decorated former NYPD sergeant) and chronicled what happened to her family when you go against the government, proving the need for Trump's weaponization fund.

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Was 2024 already lost for Democrats before Biden dropped out? Michael examines a provocative argument from veteran Democratic strategist Doug Sosnik: that the 2024 election was effectively decided long before President Biden exited the race. Drawing on Sosnik's Washington Post analysis, Michael explores three key factors—the decision to seek a second term, public dissatisfaction with immigration policy, and Democratic overconfidence following the 2022 midterms. Was Biden's late withdrawal merely the final chapter of a campaign already headed for defeat, or could a different nominee and a longer runway have changed the outcome?

President Donald Trump in a concluding news conference at the G7 Summit in France says if Iran does not follow the agreement it will sign with the U.S. on Friday, the U.S. will resume bombing Iran; Senate confirmation hearing for Director of National Intelligence nominee Jay Clayton is postponed after President Trump prevents the nominee from testifying. Confirmation of a new DNI was expected to clear the way for Senate Democrats to support a reauthorization of a foreign surveillance tool as the Democrats opposed the president's Acting DNI Bill Pulte. Now the president says he will support the foreign spying power only if a bill to require ID to register to vote is attached, and Bill Pulte will stay as Acting DNI; Federal Reserve holds interest rates steady in the first meeting under new Chair Kevin Warsh, and announces new task forces, including on data sources the Fed considers in its decisions and how the Fed communicates with the public. We will hear from the Chair and talk with Wall Street Journal economics reporter Matt Grossman (20); Senate committee holds a confirmation hearing for nominees to lead the Transportation Security Administration and Federal Emergency Management Agency and to be Deputy Director of the White House Office of Management and Budget; in Campaign 2026, President Trump gets a split decision in Georgia.

Mike discusses a new poll showing a sharp partisan divide in Americans’ sense of national pride and what it may reveal about the country’s political climate. He examines reactions to the Trump administration’s Iran agreement, arguments over its potential impact on regional stability and energy prices, and the broader debate among conservatives and Democrats over U.S. foreign policy. Mike also addresses border security, media coverage of the deal, and disagreements within the America First movement about America’s role abroad.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
I dare Leftists to hit PAUSE for just a beat and look at Trump's character as compared to themselves. Take the BEST of them, and compare to Trump.Right now, the character issue is that Trump's family continues making money. That his kids are on the boards of companies. Shocker: the children of a self-made billionaire, none of whom are crackheads cutting illegal deals with the Chinese, are on Boards. And they have thriving businesses, which all of them had PRIOR to Trump being in office. Compare these kids to Hunter Biden. Or any other kids of presidents.Trump OWNS the Democrats in character. Do you want a list of Leftist rogues? Because you should grab lunch, and sit back if you want me to read you that list.Gavin Newsom sits on top, presently. And with good reason. And what of his aunt, Nancy Pelosi? What of Ilhan Omar and the MN gang of thieves?Name me your Democrat-controlled state of city and I will give you a list of rogues, and all the names will be Democrats in leadership.Simply put: conservatism equals character. Trump has more character in his pinky fingernail than all of the Democrats combined.Remember what they decided to judge his character on. The statement that some women are so enthralled with rich, powerful men, they will allow those men to “grab ‘em by the hoohah”. I know! The NERVE of Trump speaking the truth about how some women behave. There is not a man on Earth who hasn't said or thought the same. Nor is there a woman on Earth who hasn't thought or ALLOWED it.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Kevin Jackson Show—where the news doesn't just break, it gets body-slammed and asked if it wants to tap out. Democrats lost as last year's Easter eggs.No viable 2028 candidate. Midterms shaping up to be a bloodbath. And somewhere in the distance, you can hear consultants whispering, “Maybe we should've spent less time calling voters Nazis and more time, I don't know, finding someone normal.” I saw a poll that claims Democrats are 5 points ahead of Republicans for the midterms.PROVE IT![X] SB – Gavin NewsomDigging through years of random documents. How ‘bout Iran?Oil prices kissing $80 a barrel and your wallet feeling Publisher's Clearinghouse just showed up the pump with your CHECK!Speaking of messes, the fraud cleanup aisle is open for business.Folks are actually calling for Ilhan Omar to get deported. She got so heated about Brandon Gill's petition that she allegedly got in his face and let the profanity fly. Gill, cooler than the other side of the pillow, hit her with: “Do you kiss your brother with that mouth?” Legend. Down the barrel we go: Mohsen Mahdawi, the guy who helped lead those charming pro-Palestinian riots at Columbia, just got ordered deported back to Jordan. Turns out consequences are back on the menu. Meanwhile, over in Ireland, a man nearly got beheaded in Belfast. Leave it to our enlightened American leftists to show class. Rapper Azealia Banks looked at the victim, Stephen Ogilvie, and tweeted something like, “Sheeesh, this MF is so ugly I think the Sudanese guy did him a favor.” Does she kiss her brother with that mouth?And because nothing says “merit-based immigration” like fake credentials, India-born Sriram Krishnan—Senior Policy Advisor on Artificial Intelligence—is voluntarily bouncing after it turns out he bought his degree like it was a term paper on Craigslist.

Tudor Dixon is joined by Kyle Olson, founder of The Midwesterner, to discuss a shocking labor trafficking case that federal prosecutors described as a modern-day slavery operation. The two examine how a criminal organization allegedly exploited foreign workers through the H-2A visa program, generating hundreds of millions of dollars while subjecting thousands to harsh working conditions. They also explore the broader debate surrounding immigration enforcement, labor shortages, border security, and the role of ICE in combating human trafficking and worker exploitation. Tudor and Kyle question why stories involving labor abuse receive limited media attention and discuss the political implications heading into the 2026 midterm elections. The conversation then shifts to the Democratic Party’s internal divisions, examining growing tensions over socialism, national identity, foreign policy, and party leadership. They analyze polling trends, the rise of progressive candidates, and what these ideological battles could mean for future elections.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jon Herold comes in Wednesday with a guest and a document to dig through. Tech investor Matthew McDonough joins to make the case that energy, not labor, is now the central lever controlling global power, framing the Strait of Hormuz blockade and the Iran conflict as moves in a larger energy dominance struggle against China. Jon then reads through the full leaked 14-point US-Iran memorandum of understanding line by line: the naval blockade lifts immediately, Iran gets its own frozen money back rather than new American cash, a $300 billion rehabilitation fund comes structured as financing rather than a gift, and Israel is conspicuously absent from the entire agreement. Trump's overnight Truth Social move gets its own breakdown: canceling Jay Clayton's DNI confirmation hearing in apparent retaliation after Democrats reneged on a FISA deal, which keeps Bill Pulte in place and ties FISA's fate to the Save America Act. Jon also shares word from a well-connected source that Tulsi Gabbard's promised 2020 election report is likely delayed past her departure, possibly surfacing around a rumored June 24 event. Gavin Newsom's lawyers sent Todd Blanche a letter calling the DOJ probe into him a fishing expedition.
B-52 Bomber Crashes In California. Trump At NYC Parade? Knicks At White House? Primaries Tues In Alabama, Dc, Georgia And Oklahoma. NYPD Rise To The Moment. Independents have hit 47% of the country. Republicans are at 26%. Democrats at 27%. That's not a trend line — that's a tectonic shift, and the new CNN poll out today confirms what this show has been saying for years: the angry middle isn't homeless, it isn't tribeless, it's free. Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the numbers, what they mean for the 2026 midterms, and why younger voters, male voters, and white voters without college degrees are walking away from the GOP — and not running to the Democrats. From there, it's a full no-BS briefing. Iran has de facto control over the Strait of Hormuz and Trump is negotiating what looks like a surrender. Eight crew members are dead after a B-52 crash at Edwards Air Force Base — a story buried under the noise. Closed primaries on Tuesday continue to disenfranchise nearly half the electorate. The NYPD is rising to meet a wild week of Knicks, World Cup, and parade security. And the big question hangs over Thursday: will Trump show up and shit on New York's joy, or stay in his tower? It's a sanctuary in a chaotic week — and a reminder that you're not alone in the angry middle. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything.

Is it hate? Or is it jealousy? Whatever it is, it's a bad color on everyone as a CNN panel (and pearl-clutching Big Pharma mega-recipient Elizabeth Warren) lose their minds that Elon Musk is the world's first trillionaire. Listen to the victim cards! Listen to the excuses! Listen to anything OTHER THAN personal responsibility be played as a reason why the system reportedly isn't fair for anyone who has less money than rich people.

Big Bad Iran may be tamed by the Peace Deal, but we're killing ourselves by suicidal empathy towards terrorists.Suicidal empathy, or sympathy for those who want to kill us, may seem like a virtuous quality, but it is really madness and will bring about our demise. This episode, hosted by Carole Lieberman, M.D., The Terrorist Therapist®, features examples of suicidal empathy from the U.S. to the U.K. and shows how we've been bullied into submission since 9/11 by others calling us Islamophobes.In Arizona, a school board member, had the gall to suggest that Islam would take over America. Though she accurately stated terrorists' intentions, the more ignorant of those in hercommunity are calling for her resignation. In North Carolina, the Muslim high school valedictorian tossed the speech that had been vetted by her school to go into a rant about Israel, America and ICE. In New Jersey, Hisham ‘Adam' Hamaway celebrated his Democrat primary victory by having Muslim supporters shout "Allahu Akbar!”In the U.K., Radical Islamist migrants have reached the tipping point, even influencing the Bank of England to drop Winston Churchill from banknotes. There is barbarism in Belfast, where these migrants, following the Quran, decapitate the Irish in broad daylight. No woman is safe, as men from Pakistan to Palestine claim it's legal under Sharia Law to rape young non-Muslim girls. Yet when a noted authority in terrorism testified before Congress about the danger of Sharia Law seeping into America, only some of the Congressmen took the threat seriously enough. Others reflected the general tendency of Americans to remain in denial.

It's Tuesday, June 16th, 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 Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Two pastors killed in Manipur State, India Two pastors -- Pastor Kenpibou and the Rev. Manu Thiumai -- and at least two others were found dead in India's Manipur State last week, reports The Christian Post. The victims of ethnic and religious violence were found with their hands tied and their bodies mutilated in this northeastern state. The Economic Times quotes a Manipur home minister who described the killings as “a heinous crime against humanity.” 74% of Israelis support sexual perversion today The Jerusalem Post reports that more than 100,000 persons participated in this year's so-called “gay pride” parade in Tel Aviv, Israel. A new study conducted by the Israel Institute for Gender and LGBT Studies found that 74% of Israel supports “full and legally enforced equal rights for the LGBT community.” That's up from 61% just three years ago. Additionally, 89% of secular Israelis support equal rights for homosexuals and transgenders compared to 75% of traditional Israelis, 53% of religious Israelis, and 25% of ultra-Orthodox Israelis. Judges 3:12 says, “Once again, Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord.” Brazil's attendance at sexually perverted “pride” event cut by 50% In related news, one of the world's largest sexual perverted so-called “pride” events has been held in São Paulo, Brazil. However, a university drone count found that the peak attendance fell off from 73,600 in 2024, to 36,800 in 2026. Organizers say the total attendees topped one million, but that's down from three to five million in recent years. Isaiah 2:10-11 promises this: “Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of His majesty. The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day.” Trump scored elusive peace deal with Iran The United States and Iran have reached a deal aimed at ending the war that will reopen the Strait of Hormuz and lift the American naval blockade, reports NBC News. A signing ceremony is set for Friday in Switzerland. Global markets soared after the tentative deal was announced, while oil prices fell more than $4 a barrel on the news that shipping may soon be restored through the key trade route, according to Just The News. On Truth Social, Trump wrote, "Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!” However, the memorandum of understanding leaves some key issues unresolved, setting up potential future tensions. The deal gives the two sides 60 days to resolve what to do about Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium and its nuclear program. Supreme Court sides with pro-abortion public school This just in. The U.S. Supreme Court came down on the side of the pro-abortion lobby, to disallow a pro-life club from posting signs in a public school which would have denounced the abortion giant Planned Parenthood. Only Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas dissented. Justice Alito pointed out that the “Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment constrains censorship.” Many U.S. Christian denominations have lost members American denominations have lost church attendance since 2007. Pew Research breaks it down by denomination. Only the Reformed Churches and non-denominational groups have recovered or gained members since 2007. By percentage, Holiness churches have lost the most members, followed by Methodists, Adventists, Restorationists, and Baptists. In raw numbers, Baptists have lost 11 million members, Methodists have lost seven million members, Lutherans have lost four million members, and Holiness groups have lost 1.6 million members since 2007. Meanwhile, the non-denominational churches gained 10.5 million members, and reformed churches gained about 150,000 over this 14-year period. Overall, the decline of faith in America has leveled off since 2019, largely due to an increased interest in church attendance on the part of Gen Z men between the ages of 14 and 29. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act was not reauthorized On June 11th, Congress did not reauthorize the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, or FISA. The vote was 198-218. FISA 702 has been used to spy on American citizens, and it actively circumvents the Fourth Amendment which prohibits the government from spying on Americans without a warrant. Almost all Democrats voted against reauthorization of FISA 702, but it took 19 Republicans to officially defeat the spying measure. Establishment Republicans signaled their disappointment that the measure was defeated, but Republican Congressman Tim Burchett of Tennessee explained, “The Fourth Amendment is there for a reason.” Trump saved 146,000 migrant children trafficked under Biden The Trump administration has rescued 146,000 migrant children who were trafficked into the country during the Biden administration. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin explained the situation and the conditions under President Biden. Listen. MULLIN: “We're going to right the wrongs that the Biden administration turned a blind eye to. It's because of President Trump's leadership. It's horrific what's happening right in our own country because of four years of a blind eye that allowed unvetted sponsors to come pick up 450,000 kids on our borders, knowing their reports. While the Biden administration was in office, their own reports reporting that over a third of the females, regardless of age, were sexually assaulted before they made it to the border.” Cleveland Clinic to invest $2 million to help de-transitioners In another domestic victory, the Trump administration reached a massive deal with the Cleveland Clinic Foundation which agreed to stop transitioning minors. The clinic also agreed to commit $2 million to help de-transitioners, following in the footsteps of Texas Children's Hospital, which set up a $10 million fund for that purpose. Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward stated, “The Department of Justice is steadfastly committed to protecting America's children. Just as the resolution with Texas Children's, today's resolution with Cleveland Clinic furthers that commitment and puts these providers on notice that this Department will vigorously enforce federal law where children are put at risk.” In Mark 9:42, Jesus said, “But whoever causes one of these little ones, who believe in Me, to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea.” Artificial Intelligence can now clone your voice in a scam Please be aware!

New York Knicks are world champions after a 53-year drought And finally, on June 13th, the New York Knicks became basketball world champions once again. ANNOUNCER: “It's over. Knick fans: This is not a dream. Your long, long wait has ended. Go ahead and cry. After 53 years, the Knicks are finally NBA champions once again.” During Game 5 of the NBA Finals in the Alamo City, the New York Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs by a score of 94-90, capping off a stunning playoff run. Knicks star Jalen Brunson scored 45 points in the victory, which earned him the nomination of Finals Most Valuable Player. But even more special for Jalen was the fact that his Dad, Rick Brunson, was his coach. Amazingly, Rick, himself a former NBA player, made the finals for the New York Knicks back in 1999, also playing against the San Antonio Spurs in that series. Rick and Jalen continue to maintain a close relationship, which Jalen elaborated on in a Good Morning America interview on ABC. BRUNSON: “Our relationship is unique. People may think just because he pushes me a certain way that we don't say things to each other, but I wouldn't trade anything for the world. We have the best relationship, even when it looks like we're fighting. That's just a coach and player trying to get over, to get to the Promised Land.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, June 16th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Michael Smerconish sits down with Pew Research Center's Jocelyn Kiley to discuss the organization's newly released political typology, which divides Americans into nine distinct political groups. With nearly half of Americans now identifying as independents, what does the data reveal about the country's evolving political identity? Kiley explains how Pew's research goes beyond traditional Democrat-versus-Republican labels, why polarization continues to grow, and what these new political tribes tell us about the future of American politics. Plus, Michael shares his own surprising results from Pew's political quiz. Original air date 16 June 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

[X] SB – AOC says Trumpism makes boys unhappyBummed that the right wing is dooming boys. Conditioning men into loneliness…I want to interject on the Musk valuation, by covering this little story about Iran…You have to love watching Leftists suddenly discover reality.For months, maybe years, they have been predicting Donald Trump's foreign policy collapse the way doomsday cults predict the end of the world. Every deadline comes and goes, every prediction explodes on the launch pad, and yet they simply grab a new calendar and start over."Trump is going to get us into a war!""Trump has no strategy!""Iran has him cornered!"Really? Cornered?That's an interesting description of a country whose navy got turned into an artificial reef.A country whose air force became a museum exhibit.A country whose military leadership was reduced so dramatically that LinkedIn probably started suggesting openings for "Supreme Commander."Iran wasn't negotiating from a position of strength. Iran was negotiating from a position somewhere between bankruptcy court and a yard sale.Think about what happened.Their military capability was shattered.Their weapons manufacturing was crippled.Their leadership was decimated.Their economy was flattened.Their currency became about as valuable as a Hollywood pledge to move to Canada.Their oil revenue was squeezed.Their access to money was restricted.Their frozen assets remained frozen.And somehow Democrats kept talking as if Iran was the one holding leverage.That's like watching a boxer get knocked down twelve times and then hearing the commentators say, "The interesting question is whether the undefeated champion can survive this."Survive what? The gentle breeze?According to a media briefing with senior administration officials, the memorandum of understanding that has now been signed boils down to one simple concept:Behave like a normal country and we'll treat you like a normal country.Imagine that.Not exactly the sophisticated diplomatic framework envisioned by the foreign policy geniuses who brought us pallets of cash and strongly worded letters.The administration's message was remarkably straightforward.The Strait of Hormuz remains open.Verification comes before benefits.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
A storm was perched over DC for Fight Night. And just like that, the storm went around DC as if commanded by God Himself…The UFC event at the WH was spectacular. It was like the Super Bowl of fighting, and the commercials alone were worth the price of admission. The UFC event at the White House was spectacular—Super Bowl of striking and grappling, where the commercials alone delivered more knockout value than most fight cards. I read this tweet about the event:Remember when Obama joked that Donald Trump would never be President and Trump hit back by strategically dismantling the entire Democratic Party over a 10 year period culminating with a UFC Fighter announcing that Michele Obama is a man.And how about that Marine Corps BAND! Super Bowl of elbows and egos, where even the commercials could knock you out. And that Marine Corps Band? They didn't just play—they dropped the national anthem like it owed them money. And they played all the music, and truly shocked me with how good they were.I won't spend a lot of time on this, but I will say that watching fighters showcase their abilities and sportsmanship was something to behold.It was a toxic masculinity extravaganza. And every one of the fighters thanked President Trump for the event.I felt like it was Roman times without all the death and sex.Shout out to the new Secret Service too. Not one single “mysterious” incident where Democrats could try their annual tradition. Smooth, professional, and apparently allergic to letting history rhyme. Refreshing.Speaking of Leftists, let's take a breath and examine the exquisite contradictions of the modern Left.

In a stark contrast to the past, the speaker highlights a concerning trend in Denver's crime statistics. Twenty-five years ago, 90% of Republicans and 87% of Democrats felt proud to be American. Fast forward to today, and the numbers have shifted dramatically. But is the narrative of a city in crisis accurate? The speaker digs into the data and reveals a more nuanced picture.This episode explores the complexities of crime and policy in Denver, where the numbers don't quite add up. The speaker examines the city's recent surge in homicides and the factors contributing to it. They also delve into the city's decision to abandon its automated license plate reader system, which was credited with helping to reduce crime. The speaker questions whether the city's policies are truly effective in addressing the issue.The conversation touches on the importance of understanding the root causes of crime and the role of policy in shaping the city's crime landscape. The speaker also discusses the impact of California's refinery closures on the state's energy independence and the potential consequences for the nation's security. They argue that the government's decision to prioritize environmental regulations over energy production has led to a strategic vulnerability.If you're interested in a more in-depth analysis of the issues facing Denver and the nation, tune in to this episode to hear the speaker's thought-provoking insights and arguments.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Democrats held a series of midterm national conventions during the 1970s and 1980s, using the gatherings to rally supporters and shape the party's message heading into congressional elections.”RIP: Vincent Kickerillo, dead at 97. He is the type of Texan we should emulate in many ways. “Rather than declaring bankruptcy [after the great Texas bust], Kickerillo made it a point to pay back his debtors… After getting out of the banking business by the late 1980s, he renewed his focus on homebuilding.”Hearst trying to play the New World screwworm invasion and problems with readiness as a political blame game between Trump and Biden.

WHEN SOMEONE SAYS “THIS IS THE BEST” BUYER BEWARE For instance, the phrase “gold standard” is often used by those in charge of our entirely mail in ballot system here in Colorado. Democrats say things like “Colorado is a national role model for safe, secure and accessible elections,” But are we really? The most egregious ballot situation comes from my friend Jon Caldara, whose delightful adult son Chance is the life of the party, but he does have Down’s Syndrome so he’s never registered to vote. But guess who got mailed a ballot? I’ve got Jon on at 2:30 to talk about this ridiculous system.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This has led to a new record advantage for Republicans in the state of Florida as the mid-term election cycle continues to heat up – including the recent congressional redistricting aimed at providing Republicans with four additional pickup opportunities within the state.

Jane Fonda, like so many on the Left, is the worst kind of hypocrite. She plays the part of a free speech warrior while participating in the most totalitarian movement this country has ever seen.There she was, yet again, yapping into a microphone to protest Trump's UFC 250. The signs behind her are ablaze with pure lies - Civil Rights! The First Amendment! You can't silence us! But Jane Fonda and the company she founded, Women's Media Center, do not practice what they preach. They fired me for the crime of voting for Donald Trump. I had been regularly hired for almost ten years to write their Women in Oscars report until a story broke in the Hollywood Reporter calling me a “MAGA darling.” And just like that, my 25-year career as a “woman-owned” Oscar website went up in flames, as did my freelance gig for WMC.It's true, I did vote for Donald Trump. Not only did I vote for him, but I also made my support for him known on social media, which is what caught the reporter's attention in the first place. I was supposed to cower in fear. Support the Democrats or else. I could have done what a lot of people did and kept my vote for Trump secret, but I didn't think I should have to. Weren't we the side that stood up for free speech and free expression?No. We weren't then, and aren't now. There is a long trail of writers, thinkers, actors, artists, musicians, and ordinary citizens who have been destroyed by the Left's machine for the crime of dissent. And thousands more who suffer in silence, knowing there are so many things they can't say.Only one side regularly censored users on social media, and that was the Biden administration working with the FBI. Only one side used the FBI and the CIA to censor the Hunter Biden laptop to thwart the re-election of the sitting president. That wasn't the Right.Because Jimmy Kimmel got a slap on the wrist and Trump sued CBS News, and there's a merger with Paramount and Warner Bros., to people like Jane Fonda, that means the First Amendment is under threat. My message to her: clean your own house, Jane. Jane Fonda obviously wasn't directly involved in firing me. She has no idea who I even am. It was someone else, someone I trusted, maybe someone who seemed like a decent person, but, like everyone else, from writers to publicists to friends, once I crossed that bright red line, I was no longer someone they would associate with at parties, let alone hire.It certainly wasn't because I did not do good work. I did. I even asked Grok to fact-check my memory, and here is what came back:Nobody knows the Oscars like I do, and I did the best work for them on the cheap because I liked doing it. I tried to make my case as clearly as possible to the Hollywood Reporter that I could not go along with the unprecedented lawfare against Trump, and especially not “gender affirming care” on minor children. These things motivated me to do more than just vote. I had to go public. I thought my support would help others come out from the shadows. I knew as I was talking to that reporter that nothing I said would make a difference. I wouldn't have even talked to her except she said she'd write the story anyway. She was reporting on what I thought and what I was tweeting, which was verboten inside utopia. And boy, did the hammer come down.After the story broke and I felt every door that had once been open to me slam in my face, I kept hearing yet another piece of bad news. The studios were pulling their ads. Yet another writer was leaving the site. I was not invited to screenings, parties, and premieres. The publicists all ghosted me. It was as though I had been arrested for committing mass murder.One of the last of the gut punches was losing that freelance gig at Women's Media Center. I kind of knew it was coming because, of course, it would be. They all went along with it, and almost no one had the courage to push back or resist any of it. I wrote to them anyway because I wanted to hear it from them. And I got the expected answer.Jane Fonda founded the Women's Media Center in 2005, along with Robin Morgan and Gloria Steinem. They describe themselves as “a progressive, nonpartisan nonprofit focused on increasing the visibility, influence, and decision-making power of women and girls in media.”They were perfectly happy to drop a woman writer for the sole crime of not agreeing with their politics. I'd say they don't really support women in media so much as they support those who go along with them.I never played the woman card, but I could have. I built my site just to build it, and it became successful. I was a single mom in 1999 and raised my baby and my website at the same time. It is quite the story, especially for those who pretend to care about women in media. Why would it matter if I voted for Trump? Why would that mean I could no longer write the report? Why have they decided that all of this is okay, to treat half the country like toxic waste? How have they gotten away with it, and what will be their plans should they take back absolute power?They have painted themselves into a trauma corner with nowhere else to go, and in so doing, alienated themselves from much of this country. Where can you go when you've already gone as far as humanity ever has? Hitler, the Nazis, fascism. They've now gone to the only place they can go, wishing for and hoping for Trump's death and vowing never to forgive anyone who voted for Trump. A Royal CourtThere was a time when I believed in all of it, too. The miracle of the first Black President and First Family. How one leader could bring together so much of American society, all of us reaching for the same goal because we all believed in a New America.We projected our fantasies of goodness onto them as they built what looked like a Royal Court of the most impressive and important people in the country, including rock stars like Bruce Springsteen and Katy Perry, actors like Robert De Niro and Julia Roberts. They were the party, and we were the adoring crowd. But all of that came with a price. If you want to be in the Royal Court, you'd best play ball because if you don't, they can and will crush you. I had no idea that everything I built could be destroyed just because I dissented, and yet that is exactly what happened. Jane Fonda's Women's Media Center dropping me was the most disappointing because I believed in her, too. Now I know the truth. I am just one example. There are hundreds of people who are not welcome to work in the film industry if they are not ideologically compliant. We've been living with this for ten years now, and it's become our new normal. Very few people are brave enough to stand up to them. Deep down, they all know it because they are too afraid to say the wrong thing, too. It's easier to point their finger at Trump than confront what they have become - the blacklists, the shunning, the destroying of people's careers. If they could do it to me, they can do it to anyone.What they don't see, what they can't see, is what they've done to the other half of the country for ten years. They want us all to think it's perfectly normal that our late-night talk show hosts are purely partisan, or that it's perfectly fine for Hollywood to continue to tell the story from inside their Doomsday Cult rather than the reality of all Americans.They don't see themselves as the ones who can't tolerate dissent or free speech and who fire people just for voting for Donald Trump. They believe themselves to be the chosen ones, the righteous few who have staked their claim on the New America, and those who aren't on board must be purged. They've convinced themselves that it was perfectly fine that Jimmy Kimmel made an inhumane joke about Charlie Kirk moments after his brutal assassination, but when millions of upset viewers flooded the station with angry calls to have him removed, they called that a threat to free speech.They don't seem to care that Biden imported millions of illegal immigrants into the country, and when many of them turned out to be murderers, rapists, and child molesters, they left a trail of victims, but those victims are invisible to the Left. They never even hear about them because in their minds, those illegal immigrants are to be protected above American citizens.So Julia Roberts and Bruce Springsteen continue to use the deaths of Renee Goode and Alex Pretti as examples of authoritarianism and to make American citizens feel shame for caring about their country and wanting a secure border and to be protected from harm. They never spent one minute comforting the mothers whose children were harmed by policies they supported.It wasn't Trump who shot Pretti and Goode. They put themselves in a dangerous position to go to war against Federal agents who were doing their jobs. In the Left's fever dream, they were battling Nazis. But they never notice or care or even try to understand why so many Americans wanted Trump to follow through on his promise to mass deport illegal immigrants, something every president has done. These mothers, like a lot of Trump supporters, had no other choice because this country, at the hands of the Left, means denying reality to serve utopia. You can't talk about crime if the perp is an illegal immigrant or a person of color, just as you can't discuss the harms of “gender affirming care.” I know, I've tried. They melt down like the housewife in The Stepford Wives who glitches at any confrontation of reality. That's how it's felt to me all these years, like I'm trying to talk to preprogrammed robots who know what you can and can't say. I kept wondering what happened to everyone and why they were all acting exactly the same way. They were insulated from the rest of the country, and their imaginations got the better of them.What really happened to the ruling aristocracy, especially, is that they fell in love with their own reflection. They began to believe their own publicity, and so they couldn't imagine the fault could ever possibly lie with them.It would have just been so much easier and so much better for everyone if they had just tried to understand why they lost. They never will, and so, they are doomed to repeat the same mistakes. And we have to suffer through it every time one of them finds a microphone. // This is a public episode.

Have the Democrats peaked and hit their polling ceiling ahead of the 2026 midterms? New numbers suggest this may be the case. An Iranian dissident group that opposes the Islamic Republic Regime is very pleased with the new peace deal. Greasy Gavin Newsom says the DOJ is targeting and investigating him. Graham Platner just got some very bad polling in Maine. Georgia and Alabama runoffs are today, alongside elections in DC and Oklahoma.

The Lieutenant Governor is by most measures the most powerful office in Texas' state government structure. With full control over the agenda of the state Senate, nothing gets through our legislative process without the Lt. Governor's approval - so, placing a Democrat in that position would signal a fundamental change in the Legislature's ongoing and intolerable reality.Austin State Rep. Vikki Goodwin has been running for this critical office for the better part of a year - and Progress Texas has proudly endorsed her as a highly experienced and dedicated pro who would be perfect to help turn things around in Texas. The James Talarico race is important of course, and getting a lot of attention - but Rep. Goodwin's race (and that of State Rep. Gina Hinojosa for Governor) are of even more dire and direct impact in Austin, and are thus worth the attention of Texas voters looking for change.Learn more about Rep. Goodwin's campaign at https://www.vikkigoodwin.com/.Thanks for listening! Learn more about Progress Texas and how you can support our ongoing work at https://progresstexas.org/.
