Leftwing Propaganda Found In Home of Suspected Murderer of Pro-Brexit Former Conservative MP -- Despite UK Cops Previously Claiming There Was No Political Motive
—Disinformation Expert Ace
This is the woman whose murder leftists, and trannies in particular, were celebrating.
The suspect in the alleged murder of Brexit warrior and former government minister Ann Widdecombe reportedly had far-left literature in his home, as police have been forced to belatedly admit that there may have been a political motive in last week's killing.
We're getting a little more detail from police now from a statement given on the steps of Scotland Yard, with Counter Terrorism Police saying of the killing of Brexiteer Ann Widdecombe: "It is clear this was a targeted attack. We are still working to understand the extent of any planning or preparation, and the motivation that sits behind that attack."
...
Searches of the so-far publicly unidentified 28-year-old "white" male suspect reportedly revealed that he owned "Russian communist literature" and "items of political ideology" in his home.
The Lotus Eaters podcast pointed out the UK cops now routinely hide the race of a suspect -- unless he's white, in which case they repeat it endlessly, as they did here.
According to a report from the Daily Mail, the discovery was followed by counter terror police taking over the investigation into the alleged murder of Widdecombe, a strident conservative who, unlike many on the so-called British right-wing, publicly opposed abortion, gay marriage, mass migration, and who stood as one of the nation's leading Brexiteers and political allies of Reform UK leader Nigel Farage.
The admission of a political motive behind the killing came after the local Devon and Cornwall Police were quick to attempt to downplay the possibility that it was either a terrorism-related incident or was politically motivated.
Assistant Chief Constable Matt Longman went on to urge the public to refrain from "speculation" over the motive behind the killing, describing it as "unhelpful" to the investigation and claimed that it was "distressing to the family and friends of Ms Widdecombe."
The police response has come under heavy criticism, with many claiming that it appears the messaging surrounding the investigation was intended to manipulate public opinion rather than relay the truth.
...
"I don't understand why Devon and Cornwall Police were steering the public away from the idea that this was a terrorist case and I don't know why they didn't simply say they had an open mind as to the motivation," he said.
Similar sentiments were shared by Reform UK board member Gawain Towler, who said of the police response: "In the past, they'd have said all avenues of investigation are open, but this time they tried to close out avenues of the investigation. In a time when trust in the police is at an all-time low, this just plays into that they are trying to massage public opinion."
They have little interest in stopping crime, but a great interest in stopping tweets.
The suspect had communist propaganda in his home -- and specifically, Russian propaganda.
The brutal murder of Ann Widdecombe was last night being treated as a suspected politically motivated terrorist attack.
In a dramatic escalation, counter terrorism officers yesterday took over the investigation into the killing of the former Tory minister. It came after the discovery of Russian communist literature and other items of political ideology at the home of the suspected killer.
And it marked a U-turn after the local force, Devon and Cornwall Police, spent days insisting that there was no link to terrorism. Officers, it is understood, are probing whether the 78-year-old may have been bludgeoned to death in a premeditated attack on Reform UK.
They are looking at whether a self-radicalised loner may have considered the pensioner an 'easy target' in comparison to more prominent party figures, such as Nigel Farage, who have security.
Last night, Reform accused Devon and Cornwall police of misleading the public in the initial stages of the investigation.
Senior officers were under pressure to explain why they so publicly ruled out terror or a political motivation.
Two days after the murder, detectives arrested a local labourer in error, before later detaining a 28-year-old man 270 miles away in Rotherham on Saturday night. The Mail has learnt that items of varying political ideology, including Russian material, have been found at the suspect's home and on electronic devices.
But investigators do not believe there is any evidence of hostile state involvement.
Counter terrorism police are investigating whether the 'lone wolf' targeted Ms Widdecombe due to her political views, which she frequently expressed during regular appearances on TV and radio defending Reform as the party's immigration and justice spokesman. The former Strictly contestant was well known for her beliefs, including opposition to abortion and gay rights.
They still haven't admitted the motive, but they're certain it's a "lone wolf" killing.
They can't do anything about crime and terrorism, so they'll just focus on manipulating public opinion through the leftwing media.
Of course you've seen this a dozen times in the US -- as evidence mounts that this was yet another leftwing psychopath obeying the implicit commands to kill fed to him by the political left, the left attempts to claim it wasn't leftist Assassination Prep that motivated the latest act of terrorist murder, but just generic "online hate."
Left-wing British politicians have already begun to seize upon the killing of Brexit hero Ann Widdecombe to push for more censorship on social media to combat "hate", despite police having made no public indication that the suspected killer was radicalised online.
The political, media, and law enforcement establishments were quick to condemn British citizens for "speculation" over the potential motives behind the killing of former Conservative government minister and Brexit Party Member of European Parliament Ann Widdecombe, while accusing her long-time allies, like Nigel Farage, of seeking to exploit her death for political purposes.
However, contrary to Widdecombe's long career in public life, in which she stood as a strident defender of free speech, Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, Lucy Powell, took to the floor of the House of Commons to give a speech concerning Widdecombe's death to advocate for more government speech restrictions.
"We do need to tackle some of the online algorithms and business models which heighten this kind of polarisation and hate towards those in public life, and we must do more to tackle this with urgency," she said.
The Morning Rant: Go After The Big Employers Of Illegals First!
—CBD
ICE's efforts to rid America of the scourge of violent illegal criminals who prey on our citizens is laudable, and in fact should be expanded. Contrary to the media's portrayal of a country that is upset that violent criminals who try to run down law enforcement get ventilated, most Americans understand that trying to kill cops is a good way to get shot, and aren't troubled by it.
The FBI and other data suggest about 1.25 million violent crimes in 2024, and that's just the reported ones. Law enforcement shot/killed about 1,000 that year, so it certainly isn't some insane number of violent criminals being killed extrajudicially! The number that ICE shoots is a rounding error in the total, so the panty-bunched soi-boys in the corporate GOP and the Democrat Party (but I repeat myself) can shut the f*ck up and sit the f*ck down. And that goes for Markwayne Mullin too, but President Trump already took care of that! [Sefton and I talked a bit about that on our podcast]
But there is another vast reservoir of illegals that seems to have been put on the back burner by the Trump administration. And that is the millions that are employed by our largest companies. The open secret of widespread use of illegal labor in many industries is an obscene dismissal of the Americans who would like to work, but can't. Or the Americans whose wages are depressed because of the millions of additional workers in America who are paid less than the prevailing wage because of their illegal status.
Here are the heavy hitters.

Notice that Joe's Landscaping, and Quality Painting, and ABC Roofing, are nowhere to be found on those lists. And that is because the enforcement that I suggest should start at the very top, and target our largest corporations that knowingly, in direct violation of The Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986, employee illegals. Leave the little guys alone for now, and focus on the companies that are public, with boards of directors and CEOs and presidents who can be held criminally liable for the lawbreaking of their companies.
A few videos of the CEOs of Hormel and Bechtel and Hyatt being cuffed and thrown into the back of a police car would do wonders to focus the minds of the remaining executives!
And enforcement would be easier, since these large corporations keep meticulous records, and any halfway decent forensic accountant would be able to find the illegals. And yes, the pathetic government systems that give these companies an out by being able to say, "Well, we checked through E-Verify," need to be improved. They are not the only ones who are complicit...our government is its own worst enemy.
Concurrent with that enforcement should be an increase in the fines for employing illegals. Today it is a paltry $3,000/worker and imprisonment for up to six months. Those fines should be per worker, per day, and imprisonment should be more significant. And that imprisonment should be reserved for the highest corporate executive, not the clerk in the hiring office. And perhaps rewards for whistleblowers who rat out their CEOs! That would be a delicious way to energize the country and show our workers that they are not the targets...their bosses are.
Yes...that is rank populist sleaze, but it would work, and we do not have the luxury of taking the high road any more. Ronald Reagan took the high road in 1986, and the Democrats mugged him and left him on the side of that road with no pants.

Good morning kids. As we discussed on the latest episode of the podcast linked here
as well as in the sidebar and available on the popular outlets noted at the end of this post, the usual suspects on the Left as well as shockingly from DHS chief Markwayne Mullin are in an uproar about ICE agents not only doing their duty in rounding up illegal aliens but in using lethal force to defend their lives from being snuffed out by their quarry. Despite the disgusting naked propaganda campaign to turn not merely lettuce-picking border jumpers but the most violent criminal rapists, murderers, human and drug-traffickers among them into the second coming of Anne Frank resisting the Gestapo.
Federal authorities found three bags of what they believe to be meth inside the van driven by the Mexican man who was shot and killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Houston last week. An FBI search warrant said investigators found bags containing a “white crystal-like substance” that “is consistent with methamphetamine” inside the vehicle driven by Lorenzo Salgado Araujo.
But of course law enforcement officers stopping this bastard was a crime against humanity, eh Democrats? So they've now got a wetback George Floyd to try and shove in our faces.
WASHINGTON – The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released the following statement confirming that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has arrested and deported an illegal alien from Laos who had been pardoned by Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and his fellow sanctuary politicians despite a prior conviction for repeatedly sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl.
Tou Lue Vang, an illegal alien from Laos, had been convicted in 2006 of first-degree criminal sexual conduct after he repeatedly assaulted a girl between 2002 and 2004, starting when she was just 10 years old. He once offered his victim $10 to keep quiet about the sexual assaults. When interviewed by police, he tried to justify his actions as “a cultural thing,” and even said that his victim was just as guilty as him and should also be arrested.
Following his conviction, a Department of Justice (DOJ) Immigration Judge issued Vang a final order of removal on October 31, 2006.
Tim Walz who is a credibly suspected P3do himself pardoned this Laotion louse to prevent his ejection from our country. Thank goodness that heinous abuse of power was rejected but how many more of these bastards must we be forced to endure. It would be better that the administration not attempt to kowtow and pander to the Left by accepting their premises about ICE and other law enforcement officers doing their duty and unfortunately having to on occasion use lethal force to defend their lives from vermin foreign and domestic who are tearing us apart from within.
We’re not too surprised that 51% of liberals say they’re “willing to pay higher taxes to support more social programs.” (Although the number should be 100%.)
But why do 30% of Republicans feel this way? And why in the world would more than one in five “conservatives” say they’d pay higher taxes for more services?
It gets worse.
The poll also asked whether respondents “believe the government should own key industries such as healthcare and energy.”
Incredibly, 43% of Republicans agree, as do 41% of conservatives. That’s barely higher than the share of liberals who want government ownership of key industries.
Yeah, I get it polls schmolls and poles are for strippers. But still. Maybe Markwayne Mullin's behavior is reflected here or perhaps it's something else. In any case, it's not good news.

Much of the global energy conversation still pretends that coal is on its way out.

Horde Shopping Update
I know what you're thinking. "Last week, you told us about the impending auction of Gus, one of the largest and most complete T-Rex skeletons ever found. What happened with that auction?" Glad you asked.
The auction estimate was $20 to $30 million, but Gus sold for over $50 million to an undisclosed buyer.
A Tyrannosaurus rex fossil billed as one of the world's largest and most complete specimens sold for a record $50.1 million Tuesday.
Sotheby's said the 67-million-year-old fossil, nicknamed "Gus," is now the most expensive set of dinosaur bones ever auctioned off, besting the almost $45 million price tag for a nearly complete stegosaurus sold by the same New York auction house in 2024. The previous record holder had been a Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton nicknamed "Stan" that sold for nearly $32 million in 2020.
The auction house said the mystery winner outbid six other prospective buyers during Tuesday's 10-minute bidding battle.
If the buyer is among the Horde, please send me a note. Your secret will be safe with me.

Pophouse Entertainment, the investment firm co-founded by ABBA's Bjorn Ulvaeus, has announced a partnership with legendary British heavy metal band Iron Maiden, acquiring a stake in the publishing and master music rights, and the name, image, and likeness (NIL) rights. Billboard reports that Pophouse has acquired a 50% "stake" in the assets.
The deal includes rights to the band's iconic mascot, the ghoulish character "Eddie."
However, for the sake of context, Pophouse paid upward of $300 million for a similar deal with Kiss, although the percentage was unclear.
The partnership, which has been structured and developed over the last year between Pophouse and the band's co-manager, Andy Taylor, "will enable Iron Maiden to pursue new creative ventures that connect with existing fans as well as bringing their extensive catalogue to new audiences," according to the announcement.
Does this mean Iron Maiden concerts will continue for perpetuity with a holographic Bruce Dickinson singing Fear of the Dark with a holographic Eddie?
Police in Ontario are reminding residents not to bring explosives to police stations after an unexploded World War II grenade was turned in at an Ottawa station.
The Ontario Provincial Police said a resident brought the grenade to the OPP Detachment in Ottawa on Friday.
"The OPP would like to remind the public that if you find such items, please do not transport them to your local police station," OPP East Region wrote on social media. "This could obviously prove extremely dangerous to the person bringing the item and others around."
Officials recommended residents instead leave any explosives where they are found and report the location to authorities.
Of course, Ontario appears to be on fire at the moment, so maybe grenades have dropped down the priority list since Friday.

"MASCULINITY IS BACK," Says Gay Liberal Media, In Transparent Attempt to Win Back Male Voters Who Aren't Gay or "Trans"
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Via Beege Wellborne: Steve Jobs' widow's Vanity Magazine The Atlantic announces "MASCULINITY IS BACK," but only for Democrats pretending to be masculine.
Actually-masculine Republican men, those who aren't just pretending as they run for office, are still Toxic and Ick.
Brian Poindexter had just finished wolfing down a Reuben sandwich in a deli outside Cleveland when he delivered a message that, coming from a Democratic House candidate in the year 2026, sounded almost provocative. "There's nothing wrong with being masculine," Poindexter told me. It's okay, he said, to be "a manly man."
Poindexter's own manliness credentials are fully in order.
Yeah I'm sure to a gay media writer he seems super-manly.
...
Now Poindexter is running for Congress, trying to flip a Republican-held seat in Ohio with a pitch aimed at a constituency that has abandoned the Democratic Party over the past two decades: men.
You can tell this guy is really an advocate for men when he declares there's nothing wrong with the Democrat agenda: They just need to "message" to men better.
The party-wide reckoning that Trump's win spawned has centered in part on why Democrats lost working-class men whose life experiences resemble Poindexter's--and how the party can win them back. In Poindexter's view, Democrats' struggles with men like him owe less to policy than to culture. "It's all vibes," he said.
"Vibes" is something leftwing women like Kamala Harris talk about. Men talk about actual policies and results.
You are kinda gay, dude. You are very effeminate. And you're claiming that the Democrats' Pink Agenda just needs a splash of blue paint to cover it up and it will be "For the Men."
You're not proposing actual changes -- just "bluewashing" the Democrat anti-male agenda.
...
Critiques such as Poindexter's have gelled into a consensus over the past two years, repeated ad nauseam by starchy senators and governors with an eye toward running for president in 2028. Closing the gender gap now seems to be an official electoral strategy for Democrats. A couple of months ago, I got a call from a party operative who pitched a story on the Democrats' effort to "win back the manosphere."
Democrat Party operatives call you to pitch you propaganda stories would be helpful to them?
No shit. I never would have guessed.
The operative ran through a list of a half dozen candidates in key House districts who "are engaging culturally in male spaces"--a bit of gobbledygook that I took to mean "manly men," or perhaps "guy's guys," but that also reflects the sort of anthropological distance that points to the depth of the party's problem. After all, an ironworker probably wouldn't describe himself as "engaging culturally in male spaces."
No, the whole idea of "spaces" is, get this, something leftwing women babble about.
In case you weren't already certain enough of it: The piece admits this is all a political con-job by having their "Masculine Manly-Man" declare that the Democrat Party doesn't need any actual ideas from men to support men and in fact nothing in the Democrat Party agenda is anti-male.
It's just perception, man.
Like your sex. It's all a construct.
For the most part, Poindexter and the other men Democrats are running this year aren't offering up any new male-centric ideas. That's not what's needed, Poindexter told me. Within the party's agenda, he said, "I can't think of a single piece of legislation that's bad for men." But, he argued, Democrats have hemorrhaged support from men like him--the ones who sweat more than type for a living--because the party has relegated them to the periphery.
This is the left-wing, extremely feminine idea of "centering." It's not that men are actually being harmed by anti-male policies, this faggot is arguing -- it's just that we don't feel "centered" and "included" in Democrat Party group-photos.
But the propagandist finishes on The Big Takeaway s/he was ordered to really pound home for the masses:
If nothing else, Democrats are embracing their masculinity again, and they'll soon find out whether that's enough to win men back.
Oh yeah, they're so masculine now I can't even take it.
What is really creepy here is how top-down this disgusting leftwing hive mind operates. Their political commissars say "We have to do something to attract some straight men" and within months, all of their media organs are pumping out the same message.
It's like an alien cult. All of their brains are connected by invisible amoeba-tentacles.
Meanwhile, at the New York Times, a woman wonders: Why don't men at my workplace hit on me any longer?
Go On, Date Your Co-Workers
July 6, 2026
This is how they describe the picture running with the article:
A strangely-shaped paper clip reminiscent of Mickey Mouse's head holds down a piece of metal, studded at its sides; a photo, almost like a postage stamp in shape and resting upon the piece of metal, shows two birds fornicating. A brass, more standard paper clip sits upon the metal, as does, above and off the metal, another. The birds are blue and yellow, the hazy background green fading into orange. All is a metaphor for corporate drudgery interrupted by the subtle eroticism of nature.
Karens are lonely and horny and so they're announcing that men should brave lawsuits and #cancellation to f*** them again.
Don't bother, they're bad at sex. They're bad at pretty much everything.
Last year I developed an office crush. My friends warned me against doing anything about it, typically using a crude metaphor about keeping your eating space clean. Dating people you work with just seems like too much trouble these days. It's not that people aren't attracted to Jack in client relations with the smile lines and overzealous David Lynch obsession; it's that it feels as if the risk outweighs the reward.
But a return to office romance could be the solution to the sense many people have that modern dating is broken. Dating apps ask us to consider potential romantic partners not as full human beings with a caffeine addiction and tension-defusing sense of humor but as a set of optimized digital parameters.
Only 16 percent of U.S. workers went on a date with a colleague last year, down from about 40 percent in 2009.
Gee, why do you think that is, NYT? Can you offer any kind of explanation?
Maybe something to do with a all-consuming moral panic you stoked and profited from?
Workplace crushes -- a surefire way to inject excitement into office mundanity -- have waned, too, with the share of workers reporting one collapsing from 49 percent in 2024 to just 22 percent in 2025, according to a human resources industry group survey. The decline has been decades in the making. While about one-fifth of adults over 50 said they met their partners at work, just 13 percent of those 18 to 29 said the same.
Of course, workplace romance was always fraught, with its legacy of predatory bosses, favoritism and, when things went wrong, career retaliation. Years of sexual harassment training and more watchful human resources departments taught us not to go there. (About a quarter of workers now fear harassment allegations, one industry survey found.)
But where else in adulthood except the office would you bond with a potential paramour you share so much of everyday life with?
Below, the Masculine Manly-Man running for office as a Democrat that The Atlantic is ordering its readers to get behind.
I’m Brian Poindexter - I’m a union ironworker, and I’m running for Congress because working people's lives keep getting harder and harder while billionaires keep getting richer and richer.
I don't know what that blasphemous little imp's secret is, but he's got one. Don't be fooled by that creepy smile on his creepy face; there's something wrong with James Talarico. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I don't ever want to see his browser history, and I'd sooner have somebody from The Lincoln Project babysit my kid. It's just a vibe, but there are rumors out there, and unfortunately, no one has shared the specifics with me. I don't know exactly what they are, but we have no moral obligation to default to a presumption of normality regarding Democrat Senate candidates this cycle. After all, we just lived through Der Platnerdämmerung.
Is it related to his gender ambiguity? He's already famous for apologizing for his white male identity. Well, let's just say we can be pretty confident that Talarico has never beaten up or assaulted one of the many ex-girlfriends he's tried to convince us were his girlfriends. This is because, to the extent they actually ever were his girlfriends, they all look like they can kick his butt. And he looks like he might dig that.
Let's call out the pink donkey in the room. There's widespread speculation that the guy is in the closet, and anybody who's lived a few years has known guys in the closet, and well, this dude gives off vibes like he's in the closet. I don't know if he's in the closet. I do know that if he is in the closet, he should have come out and been honest about who he was. If he's lying about that, what else is he lying about?
All of my concerns about mentally-ill men obsessed with possessing women's bodies hanging out in women's rooms are instantly dispelled!
Keith Ellison claims straight people use 'gender-affirming care,' calls tax-funded police 'socialism'
"Cisgender heterosexual people like myself use gender-affirming care every day and all the time," Ellison said.
You can tell he doesn't mean it because Islamist clerics haven't issued a fatwa against him.
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison has come under a flurry of criticism in recent days after a pair of comments about socialism and so-called "gender-affirming care." In both cases, Ellison was attempting to stretch the meaning of both words.
During a June 29 appearance on an LGBT talk show, Ellison discussed "gender-affirming care" and claimed that it is not exclusive to transgender people, saying that "cisgender heterosexual people like myself use gender-affirming care every day and all the time."
Ellison explained that he believes a man using erectile dysfunction medication, a woman receiving reconstructive surgery after a double mastectomy, or a woman with hair loss wearing a wig are all practicing "gender-affirming care."
...
Speaking to the talk show hosts, the attorney general argued that a double standard exists which penalizes transgender people for seeking out methods to change their appearance. Ellison said he believes this double standard is "bigotry."
...
"You call the cops, guess who pays them? Your tax dollars," Ellison said. "Guess what that is? That's socialism, pal! Sorry. You don't contract for your own private police department or fire department or water inspection or public works."
Former MSNBC crazy person Joy Reid is now a podcasting crazy person, "I hope you guys had a fabulous weekend where you definitely had a better week then the Republican Caucus in the United States Senate because hell opened its doors for at least one more... there is a thing that happens when people die who are not good people and who've done a lot of bad, but the media reacts to them in a very specific sort of fuck-up-ish kind of way, particularly when they're conservatives."
Candace Owens has a new theory, and I'm not joking: She wonders if Bibi Netanyahu ordered Charlie Kirk to kill her, and when he refused, Netanyahu then put out the contract on Charlie Kirk.
Ben Shapiro is skeptical. He thinks the toxic Cluster-B attention whore might just be itchy for attention.
Ah, yes, because if Israel wanted to kill Candace Owens, they would definitely call Charlie Kirk on the phone and ask him for permission.
Then, once he says no, and they're, of course, bound by that edict, they would stage an elaborate fake assassination of HIM.
That's definitely how secret government assassinations work.
This level of narcissism and delusion is not even funny anymore.
Notice that Candace Owens, just like a psychopathic stalker, cannot stop attempting to associate herself with the object of her obsession, Charlie Kirk. She wants the names "Candace Owens and Charlie Kirk" indelibly linked forever, as if they were married.
Psychopaths often do this. Ask John Lennon's assassin about his belief that Lennon had stolen his identity and taken his place.
UK "Equalities and Human Rights Commission:" People Must Use The Single-Sex Bathrooms for the Gender They Were "Assigned at Birth." Trannies Should Use Gender-Neutral Bathrooms.
Single-sex spaces - such as changing rooms and toilets - must be used on the basis of biological sex, new guidance from the equalities watchdog has confirmed.
This means, for instance, that a trans woman - a biological male who identifies as a woman - should not use female toilets or changing rooms, according to the code of practice.
The guidance, produced by the Equalities and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) and now approved by ministers, makes it clear that transgender people should instead be offered a third or a gender-neutral space.
The code states that leaving a trans person without access to any services or facilities would be unlikely to be proportionate and could be discriminatory.
The guidance was published on Thursday following the landmark Supreme Court ruling last year that the definition of a woman under the Equality Act should be based on biological sex.
The code of practice sets out how associations, businesses and services open to the public should organise their facilities. It covers a wide range of settings from shopping centres and gyms to hospitals and restaurants. The EHRC is planning to publish guidance for employers and staff facilities at a later date.
So you don't want trans-identifying males to feel threatened by the presence of other men when using communal toilets, but you're perfectly happy for women to be subjected to that same uncomfortable experience. Do you not see how illogical your argument is?
President Donald Trump on Wednesday praised the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and disputed reports it would end traffic stops. He said that traffic stops are key to effective enforcement of immigration laws.
"We must be strong, tough, and smart, and we CANNOT give up one of I.C.E.'s most important and effective Crime Fighting tools, THE TRAFFIC STOP! Once we do, we are playing right into the criminal's hands. The Radical Left Dumocrats would like to see this done, but it won't happen on my watch," Trump said on Truth Social.
Several outlets on Tuesday reported that ICE would curtail agents stopping vehicles as part of the federal agency's nationwide deportation operation. The change in policy followed two fatal shootings of motorists involving ICE agents in one week.
By the way, the man who was shot and killed while attempting to run down ICE in his vehicle was a Columbian immigrant.
The driver of the vehicle was killed in the incident and was identified as Joan Sebastian Guerrero, a Colombian citizen in his 20s.
The Washington Post pointed out that Guerrero "entered the United States via the southern border in September 2023, a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said in a statement, and received work authorization in May 2025."
As I said, this is terrorism and insurrection.
The left is asserting a general right to attack its enemies. In Point Pleasant, NJ, a woman slapped two kids for daring to wear MAGA and pro-ICE clothing.
A leftist Canadian woman allegedly slapped a teen who was wearing President Trump-branded clothing on the Jersey Shore over the Fourth of July weekend -- before she was arrested and detained by immigration officials.
Kaitlyn E. Tracey, 33, allegedly recorded herself confronting a group of four girls on the Point Pleasant Beach boardwalk when she became violent on July 3, according to court documents obtained by NJ.com.
Tracey took issue with two of the beachgoers -- who are minors -- wearing "patriotic colored" sweatpants with the words "Trump" and "ICE" before she struck one of them across the face and body, police alleged.
Video surveillance captured Tracey's alleged assault before she left the scene but was identified by police who obtained an arrest warrant for her, the outlet reported.
She was arrested on Monday and charged with endangering the welfare of a child, simple assault, harassment and obstruction, according to court records viewed by The Post.
The teen Tracey allegedly slapped was not injured.
Tracey had been living in Asbury Park with her husband after she entered the US with a passport in 2024, according to the outlet.

This child-beating bitch is now in custody, ironically enough, at the Delaney ICE facility in Newark, the one the other lunatic leftwing women can't stop protesting. (And laying hands on people while they're "protesting," too.)
The Canadian woman who slapped a teenager at the Jersey Shore because she didn't like the girl's MAGA clothing was arrested by ICE and brought to Delaney Hall in Newark -- the very immigration detention center her lefty husband has railed about on social media.
Kaitlyn E. Tracey, 33, was taken into custody after she filmed herself confronting two girls wearing "patriotic colored" sweatpants over Fourth of July weekend at Point Pleasant, one of whom she struck across the face and body, cops said.
Her husband, Matthew Geroni, 42, revealed on TikTok Tuesday that she had been taken to Delaney Hall in a video he said he recorded with the purpose of getting her released from ICE custody "even if that means back to Canada," he said.
Tracey was arrested on Monday and charged with endangering the welfare of a child, simple assault, harassment and obstruction, according to court records viewed by The Post.
The couple have been living in Asbury Park since she entered the US with a Canadian passport in 2024.
It wasn't his first video about the now-infamous detainee facility, which became the site of angry protests and violent clashes between police and anti-ICE demonstrators in recent months.
Geroni posted a TikTok video in June purporting to imitate both sides of the conflict, portraying the protesters as peaceful and the police as violent, mindless thugs.
The video opens with him sitting under the words "peaceful protesters literally standing in their designated first amendment zone," looking confused and scratching his head.
It then cuts to him standing and aiming a gun-like object with which he mimics a rapid-fire shooting motion standing beside the text "State police and [ICE] at Delaney Hall in Newark, NJ."

Biden Slurs and Stumbles His Way Through Ad for His Ghostwritten "Memoir"
—Disinformation Expert Ace
This drooling imbecile was paid $10 million by the corrupt corporate media for a book that won't make $2 million.
As ghastly as that corruption is, at least we can take solace in Biden feeling disrespected by the fact he only got $10 million -- the clean, articulate black man (whoah, that's storybook, man!) who proceeded him got $60 million. (Plus a hundred million from propaganda op Netflix, just for existing.)
Former President Joe Biden will release his memoir this fall at a date set for two weeks after midterm elections in which Democrats seek to regain control of Congress.
...
The memoir Promise Me, America will focus on his four years leading the nation, as Breitbart News reported.
Many Democrats remain divided on Biden's legacy and his ill-fated journey to seek a second term in the White House while questions have been raised about Biden's mental decline while he was in the White House and the alleged use of an autopen.
His own party's leaders hope to keep the fall campaign focused on the record of Republican President Donald Trump, the AP report notes, rather than that of a man who drifted out of view when all attempts to return to the highest office in the land came to nothing and his own party turned on him.
"'Promise Me, America' is about the challenges we faced as a nation. It's about the decisions I made and why I made them," Biden said in a video statement accompanying Wednesday's announcement. "Most of all, it's about my faith in the promise of America."
Below: A clearly mentally-ravaged Biden slurs his way through an ad for "his" ghostwritten book of lies. This short video has more cuts in it than a Michael Bay action sequence.
Incredible to watch this video and remember that Biden and his team fought for him to serve a second term. This is a recorded video, no doubt with multiple takes, and in the finished product he can barely speak https://t.co/PguoTKwd8O
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer appeared to suffer an embarrassing mishap on the Senate floor Tuesday when what sounded like a fart interrupted his remarks live on C-SPAN.

There is a bullshit way around this. The DOJ will sometimes seize these messages anyway but they first go to a "Filter Team" to make sure that nothing in the messages is protected by the Speech and Debate Clause. If a message falls into that category, it's not passed on to prosecutors.
But Jack Smith said "YOLO" and just read all the messages he wanted to read, without any Filter Team clearing them first.
And of course, 90% of those he illegally, unconstitutionally spied on were Republican congressmen.
Newly released records reveal that Special Counsel Jack Smith's team bypassed mandatory protocols to secretly access the private text messages of 44 members of Congress during the probe into President Donald Trump, the Justice Department confirmed Tuesday.
The disclosure, confirmed by records released by the Senate Judiciary Committee, has become a major constitutional flashpoint.
As lawmakers confront the reality that their private communications were accessed without following established filter protocols, the inquiry is igniting a broader debate over the separation of powers between the executive branch and the legislative body.
"Communications from Members of Congress pertaining to their official legislative duties are protected from criminal prosecution under the Constitution's Speech or Debate Clause," the Senate Judiciary's press release said.
The Speech or Debate Clause of the U.S. Constitution (Article I, Section 6) serves as a check on executive power and is designed to prevent members of Congress from being "questioned in any other Place," ensuring they cannot be subjected to the scrutiny of the Justice Department or the judicial branch for their legislative acts.
Yet DOJ records released to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, reveal that former Special Counsel Jack Smith's team reviewed the texts of 44 members of Congress, including 40 Republicans and four Democrats, during the investigation into President Donald Trump.
..
"This is a blatant abuse of power, and exactly what our Founders warned about," Senator Rand Paul, R-Ky., also wrote on X. Paul also called out Jack Smith, where, during a December 2025 congressional deposition when he was asked under oath whether his team had reviewed the content of text messages belonging to members of Congress, he answered, "No."
...
While the Filter Team's purpose was to prevent investigators from the Special Counsel's Office and the FBI from accessing privileged materials among records obtained, evidence shows that investigators bypassed this, potentially infringing on constitutional guardrails, according to the release.
..
The phones were associated with a long list of officials serving in the White House during President Trump's first term, including Trump himself, as well as Stephen Miller, Rudy Giuliani, Kellyanne Conway, Peter Navarro, the president's daughter Ivanka Trump, former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and former Vice President Mike Pence.
Smith's investigative team downloaded and began reviewing the texts without waiting for the Filter Team's evaluation.
...
Meanwhile, the scope of this investigative overreach has been igniting sharp backlash on Capitol Hill.
...
Missouri Senator Josh Hawley also slammed the findings of the DOJ records, writing on X, "Joe Biden's DOJ not only tapped my phone; I just learned they ILLEGALLY obtained my texts with members of President Trump's administration," adding, "Everyone involved needs to be PROSECUTED."
Lawmakers are now calling for a full-scale investigation into the breach, decrying what Senator Ron Johnson described as the "Biden administration's weaponization of the Justice Department." At the core of their concerns is whether the government has prioritized its investigative reach over constitutional restraints.
Jack Smith, the illegally appointed Special Prosecutor whom Biden's Justice Department sicced on Donald Trump, is a perjurer.
That should surprise nobody; for years now it has been obvious that he is a partisan hack with a burning desire to take down Donald Trump, which is why the Justice Department violated its own rules (eventually destroying their case) in order to appoint him. They knew they could count on him to break any rule, tell any lie, and cross every ethical boundary to get his man.
🚨 WOW! A stunning revelation that Special Counsel Jack Smith SPIED ON the content of text messages of US Senators is resulting in calls for Smith to be prosecuted
I had the pleasure of joining @Bannons_WarRoom to talk about the 44 members of Congress whose personal text messages and privacy were invaded by Jack Smith. pic.twitter.com/noxyg0y4oV
Flashback: Jack Smith lied in a warrant to keep his spying secret, telling corrupt Judge Boasberg that Ted Cruz (among others) would shred evidence if the law were followed and they were alerted they were being illegally spied upon.
Jack Smith went to court and said that I’d destroy evidence if I knew about his subpoena.
Judge Boasberg signed off on the order.

This week, CNBC published their insane lists of the best and worst states. Much fun has been poked at CNBC in the wake of these lists, especially their list of worst states. The ranking is almost purely political. Not enough kowtowing to trannies? Bad state. Not enough unions? Bad state. Not enough abortion? Bad state. One of the few objective measures in the qualification for "worst" status is crime - and even then, if you subtract the urban (that is, Democrat) centers from the statewide figures, the numbers tend to start collapsing. The list of "good" states is much the same. They do this every year, but this year is particularly absurd and the commentary has been everything from outrage to bafflement to guffawing laughter, all of which seem more or less appropriate.
It's absurd and low-value on its face, and everyone can plainly see it. So what gives, beyond the obvious appeal of clickbait to a dying enterprise? I suspect that this pair of articles was a trial balloon, much like the Party sent up during COVID using its preferred high-brow outlet, The Atlantic. This may be the low-brow equivalent. If this bears out, expect a a period of relative quiet on this topic, followed by an increasing drum-beat of articles from more outlets about how awful the "bad" states and those like them are, and how great the "good" sates and those like them are. There is a reason for this if it happens.
It is likely waning now, but we're coming off one of the largest peacetime migrations in American history. A lot of people have moved in the past decade, and not just down the street or to a better neighborhood. It is plain that on CNBC's list, "red states" are bad and "blue states" are good, but there's more going on over the covers when you look at population. Per the Census estimates from April, 2020 as compared to July, 2025, the US total population increased by 3.1%. That is the baseline. So what about the best and worst?
CNBC "Best" States
- Vermont: +0.25%
- New Jersey: +2.79%
- Minnesota: +2.17%
- Connecticut: +2.24%
- Hawaii: -1.54%
- New Hampshire: +2.74%
- Virginia: +2.88%
- North Dakota: +2.60%
- Massachusetts: +1.72%
- Nebraska: +2.86%
Of CNBC's 10 "worst" states, seven of them grew population faster than the United States. Of CNBC's 10 "best" states, zero of them grew faster than the United States overall. In real terms, the entire "best" list has lost population over the past five years. Its "worst" states include most of the big "red" states, but it's "best" list doesn't include several of the big "blue" states. As a bonus, let's look at a handful of big, major-player states that didn't make either list:
- Illinois: -0.80%
- New York: -1.00%
- California: -0.51%
- Florida: +8.93%
- Ohio: +0.86%
- Arizona: +6.51%
Ouch. Deep blue California, New York and Illinois all shrank in nominal terms. On the red side, Florida grew even more than Texas and Ohio shrank in real terms. Purple Arizona grew more than twice as fast as the country as a whole.
The gigantic migration of the past several years is going to have profound consequences on electoral distribution and power dynamics - especially if (and it is a big "if") the red state population magnets remain red states. Population movement can cause major political and cultural change, which we've seen writ large as some states of the Interior West fell like dominoes, moving from red or purple to solid blue and how Florida moved from purple to red (thanks in large part to electoral reform and reduced cheating, but still...). If this migration serves to reinforce rather than degrade the targets of the migration, the ripples through the power structure are barely even being felt yet. I think this is what the establishment fears, is why CNBC went full retard with their lists this year - and why I expect to see more excoriation of the popular red states and more articles about how wonderful the blue states are.
People have spent the better part of a decade voting not just with their ballots or with their wallets, but with their feet. This has also been largely ignored by the mainstream, which is notable because this has been a big and consequential realignment spread over years. During this time, most of the establishment - regardless of nominal party affiliation - has been pretending it isn't happening. It is too big to continue ignoring it and I think this is a sign that the establishment is finally starting to acknowledge what has happened and to attempt to slow any more motion in the same direction. If this assumption is correct and this is the establishment's motivation, they waited far, far too long. The horses are out of the barn. The Great Migration has already redrawn the map. A media salvo and associated pressure campaigns now will be too little, too late.
The only real question is whether the Great Migration reinforces conservatism at its destinations, or whether the red states will fall. If this pair of articles is indeed a trial balloon and more follow with greater intensity and frequency, it will be a strong indicator that the establishment fears that the Great Migration is a reinforcing trend for its enemies - that is, for Americans.
A person was fatally shot in Biddeford, Maine, during an encounter with a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer. Witnesses report that the individual who was shot appeared to be attempting to run over the ICE officer before the officer discharged his weapon. . . The shooting in Maine follows another deadly shooting involving ICE in Houston, Texas, last week. Mexican national Lorenzo Salgado Araujo is also accused of having “rammed an ICE law enforcement vehicle, refused to follow multiple verbal commands, and weaponized his vehicle in an attempt to run over an ICE law enforcement officer,” although this is disputed by passengers presented in the vehicle at the time. Mexico is attempting to sue the U.S. over the incident.
William Kristol, the NeverTrump icon and supporter of President George Bush, wants to destroy the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency that protects Americans from nation-changing, wage-slashing mass migration. “Abolish ICE. Now,” Kristol posted on Monday... Kristol’s support for replacement migration is deeply unpopular among GOP-aligned and swing-voting Americans, largely because of the economic damage. The result is that Kristol and his former-GOP allies at The Bulwark are increasingly aligning themselves with pro-migration Democrats.
Yeah, totally shocking that Chlamydia Harris and Kristol meth are blasting away at ICE. But, Markwayne Mullin? The head of the DHS who in that position is running ICE for and at the behest of the man who put him there, President Trump?
In response, Mullin ordered that all ICE officers in the country stop pulling over vehicles in order to do their jobs. The method of pulling over vehicles is one of the most effective and preferred tools for ICE officers, as at-home arrests increase the possibility of danger with access to weapons, according to the Daily Wire, which first reported the directive. At-home arrests also require a judicial warrant, whereas traffic stops do not.
In other words, Mullin’s caving means more ICE agents will be put at risk while fewer deportations will be possible.
Foreign invading criminals are using lethal force to avoid apprehension and deportation and one of our lead law enforcement officers is ordering his front line agents to essentially stand down and become targets. What Mullin should be doing is standing behind his troops and publicly urging them to do their duty and announce that the use of lethal force to defend one's life in the line o duty will always be our policy.
. . . revolutionary movements often convince themselves that one spectacular act of bloodshed will awaken the public and spark sweeping political transformation. History shows otherwise, but the fantasy persists because every generation imagines it will succeed where the last one failed.
One of the interview’s most compelling moments came during a discussion of what Rothman calls the “permission structure” surrounding violence. Contrary to popular belief, widespread support isn’t necessary.
If only a small percentage of the population embraces political violence while everyone else hesitates to condemn it, whether out of fear, tribal loyalty, or ideological convenience, the normalization process begins. Silence becomes accommodation. Accommodation becomes acceptance. Acceptance becomes encouragement.
Sadly it's more than a small percentage and it and the others who may not hurl a molotov cocktail but who cheer on those who do make up a frighteningly large percentage of the populace, and all of them are Democrat/Leftists.
As I hinted at in previous posts, one cannot debate or otherwise reason with cancer. It must be eradicated, mercilessly, and excised from the body politic root and branch. How we are to do that in a manner that is in keeping with our values, heritage and abhorrence of violence is a big question mark. It is my fervent hope and prayer that the good Lord opens their eyes, hearts and minds to the evil they either perpetrate or otherwise support and make them repent and turn away and back towards a path of righteousness and decency. Before it's too late, for all of us.
Mullin is now the second DHS secretary in President Donald Trump’s second term to cave to the mob on the promise of mass deportations after noncompliance from protesters or subjects turned unexpectedly deadly. But the blame for every last death of this sort should be placed at the feet of Democrats, who insist that these encounters turn into fatal confrontations.

Intel will be shipping its own X3D equivalent later this year with its Nova Lake processors, which include up to 288MB of cache, though most users will do fine with half that much.
Native Qwen 27B uses 16-bit floating point, so it needs 54GB of VRAM to run unrestricted. And 54GB of VRAM is quite expensive in the current market.
What the Bonsai process does is to prune it down to ternary or binary with scaling factors per group. In ternary form it fits in 5.9GB of VRAM, while retaining more than 90% of the capabilities of the full model.
After years of construction, months of anticipation, and one very public delay, the Gordie Howe International Bridge finally has an opening date – and Canada’s trucking industry says it can’t come soon enough.
The long-awaited crossing between Windsor and Detroit will open to traffic on July 27 after Canada, Michigan, and the U.S. government reached an agreement following weeks of behind-the-scenes negotiations over toll revenue and governance.
For Stephen Laskowski, president and CEO of the Ontario Trucking Association and Canadian Trucking Alliance, the impact stretches far beyond truck drivers.

Instead of navigating city traffic and multiple traffic lights, trucks will head straight to a modern border plaza designed to speed up inspections, particularly for agri-food shipments.
The result, he said, is faster crossings, better security, and lower operating costs.
The trucking industry estimates companies could save anywhere from $20,000 to $100,000 annually, depending on the size of their fleet and how often they cross the border.
Laskowski also believes having another major international crossing competing for commercial traffic will benefit the entire industry.
Competition, he said, drives efficiency.
Seems like the truckers should have just said "it'll be a beauty, eh?"
The Cape Bridges project reached a major milestone this week when the Federal Highway Administration approved the project’s final Environmental Impact Statement and issued a formal go-ahead.
The action marks the first time that the Highway Administration has approved such a final statement for a roadway project in Massachusetts since 1991 and marks a significant step forward, according to a June 30 press release from the governor’s office. The state Department of Transportation is in charge of the project to replace the Sagamore and Bourne bridges.
These new bridges will be used by the staff en route to/from the Northern Command of Doof Enterprises. There is an internal betting pool as to whether or not the Key Bridge near the Mid-Atlantic Command of Doof Enterprises will rebuilt before one or both of the Cape bridges.

“Montrose – we were about to explode,” he reflected to Guitar Player. “We were gonna be the American Led Zeppelin, and he couldn’t take it. I don’t know what it was. He was afraid of success. He’d sit there in the studio holding his face like, ‘Oh God, what are we gonna do?’ I’m like, ‘Fuck, let’s jam! Let’s make some music.’”
Ronnie Montrose was one of the most in-demand session men in rock, having laid down guitar parts for the likes of Van Morrison, Edgar Winter, Herbie Hancock, and Boz Scaggs. Fancying his own project, he formed his namesake band in 1973 with a young Hagar behind the mic, cut the Montrose and Paper Money LPs before Hagar was fired, precipitating his solo career. Such fraught relationships with his band members and the routine dismissal of new recruits would scupper whatever momentum Montrose had enjoyed.
“I’ve never seen a guy like that,” Hagar added. “He fired everybody. The second you had one smidgen of success with him, he broke up the band.”
Montrose would continue without Hagar, but the hard rock explosion they promised was never realised, their founding guitarist smoothing the sound to a funkier direction with Bob James fronting the new style while Van Halen was conquering the Billboard charts. A string of solo albums would follow across the 1990s before he sadly took his own life in 2012.

A genuine 1980 photograph shows the supertanker Esso Languedoc being struck by a massive rogue wave off Durban, South Africa. Captured by the ship's chief officer, the image remains one of the most famous examples of extreme ocean conditions.
The photograph captured what many scientists once considered nearly impossible: a rogue wave. Taken in 1980 as the oil supertanker Esso Languedoc sailed off Durban, South Africa, it shows a towering wall of water rising far above the ship's bow. The crew estimated the wave reached around 25--30 meters (82--98 feet) high.
For much of the 20th century, rogue waves were often treated as sailor's tales because traditional wave models suggested such extreme events were almost impossible. Images like this, combined with eyewitness accounts, helped change scientific understanding. Later advances in satellite monitoring, ocean buoys, and modeling confirmed that rogue waves are real and can form when multiple wave systems combine their energy into a single massive crest.
The waters off South Africa are especially dangerous because powerful Southern Ocean swells can collide with the strong Agulhas Current, creating unpredictable sea conditions. In 1995, the Draupner oil platform in the North Sea recorded the first scientifically measured rogue wave, a 25.6-meter (84-foot) wave that provided definitive proof these extreme events exist.

CNBC ranks Tennessee as dead last in its “Worst States to Live” analysis. The specific reason is that cross-dressing men in TN are denied access to children and women’s private spaces. Texas finished 49th. The “worst” states were all red states. [Buck]
In response to someone asking why the video tape doesn't show Tyler Robinson's face (PS, it does, but it's crappy video so it's blurry):
Candace Owens
@RealCandaceO
Because as I demonstrated on my show, there were MANY young men that all woke up and decided to dress in Maroon shirts and light shorts on the day of the Charlie's assassination.
The footage can be any one of these young men and in my opinion is likely multiple of them.
If Tyler Robinson's defense would like to contact me-- I'd be happy to supply them the folder of the maroon boys that I began archiving when I noticed the bizarre fashion trend.
I have thus far ID'd two of them, but will focus on IDing the rest of them when I am back on air.
I have maintained that the Feds had multiple decoy maroon boys on the ground that day. Without a clear image, they certainly cannot declare it is Tyler Robinson which is why all the Zionist influencers are hoping they can simply hypnotize the public into trusting blurry images and videos.
For such an "open and shut case" they have thus far provided ZERO evidence of anything outside of a criminal government conspiracy, the likes of which hasn't been seen since the JFK assassination.
More "fedslop" that Cavernous Nostrils is too smart to be taken in by:

@BlakeSNeff
BREAKING: Lance Twiggs says that Robinson admitted to him in-person on Sept. 11 that the message he had sent the night before (presumably, messages sent while he was trying to retrieve his rifle the night of Sept 10) was true. He says Robinson told him "He wishes he hadn't done it."
Fenix Ammunition
@FenixAmmunition
Photos of the ammunition recovered from Tyler Robinson.
Remington headstamp on the case and despite the somewhat low resolution on the photo you can see the somewhat blunted nature of the projectile's tip.
This is a Remington Cor-Lokt soft point round. It's SPECIFICALLY designed to deform, slow down, and prevent an exit wound. Available at literally every single gun store and sporting goods store that sells ammunition.
In fact, 16 out of the 17 .30-06 varieties manufactured by Remington use some type of expanding, deforming, or fragmenting bullet. Only ONE of their products uses a full metal jacket projectile that could/would be expected to leave an exit wound.
Here's a clip of them sitting in my desk.
This has been the most easily debunked claim of their entire web of lies and it's really mind blowing considering this is exactly what you would choose for an assassination.
But yeah, definitely keep getting all your information from the DEI hire and the Portland pizza boy. I'm sure they know more about this than I do.
Post here, showing Tyler Robinson's ammunition, matching this guy's own box. And it is an expanding-tip hollow-point round.
Boy these Internet Experts (TM) sure do get a lot of things wrong.
Lost 70s Mystery Click And a song with another song as an intro, too: Be it sight, sound, smell, or touch
There's something
Inside that we need so much
The sight of a touch, or the scent of a sound
Or the strength of an oak with roots deep in the ground
The wonder of flowers to be covered and then to burst up
Thru tarmac, to the sun again
Boy do they look like absolute dorks.
Lost 70s Mystery Click Doing alright
A little jiving on a Saturday night
And come what may
Gonna dance the day away

She always smiled for the people she'd meet
On trouble and strife
She had another way of looking at life
