Rep. Summer Lee, D-Pa., said during an interview on Sunday that Black Americans would stop voting if they aren't given reparations.
...
"And that's what they do," she continued. "Because, again, they're trying to disenfranchise you. Because if you believe that you're never going to get reparations from this system, then you tap out, and you don't just tap out of the conversation, you tap out of the system. You don't want to vote anymore. You don't participate anymore."
"And they know that that's how they don't control Congress," Lee added. "That's how you can get your school boards, your board of supervisors. They want us that far out of this system. So right now, we fight for reparations because it's owed us. It is owed us, so we're not going to back down on that one way or another."
Lee reintroduced a resolution in May that, if passed, could give federal dollars to the descendants of enslaved people brought from Africa to the United States. Former Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo. -- who lost her 2024 primary to a more moderate Democrat -- introduced the reparations bill in the last Congress. Bush's bill, unveiled in May 2023, called for $14 trillion to be put toward reparations payments for descendants of slavery in the United States, but it did not go anywhere.
Lee told "The Native Land Pod" that she wasn't surprised Democrats weren't backing reparation efforts.
"I'm not shocked that my colleagues are not on it, that Democratic colleagues aren't on it," she said. "Again, there is a level of comfort in this building that sustains people. And I know that the people who don't want reparations back a lot of my colleagues, Democrat and otherwise. So no, I'm not shocked, but it is why we have to keep people on the outside encouraged."
The Democratic congresswoman was asked about how reparations would work in practice, and about what host Andrew Gillum said was how the right has made the term reparations so "raggedy, ugly, so unattractive that White liberals are avoiding signing onto it."
"The reality is, is that the cowardice that liberals are able to show when it comes to all types of things that sound scary, but we know you have, you know, just data, evidence, empirical evidence behind it," Lee said. "And that comes with -- that comes with police accountability, that comes with criminal legal reform, that comes with reparations, right?"
...
"We know there will be pushback," she said after she reintroduced the proposal. "Reparations are a proposal to level the playing field, but the only way we could ever have a level playing field is by remedying the harms that have been done by the system."
But Lee signaled on Wednesday that the long odds would not deter her.
Larry O'Connor also urges black Democrats to make the midterms a referendum on reparations. If we don't demand it, then who? If not now, when?
Another Stunning and Brave black female Democrat, Rep. Uncle Fester, is also pushing Reparations Now, Reparations Tomorrow, Reparations Forever, and I couldn't be happier to help this Strong Empowered Black Woman get her Lived Experience Extortionate List of Demands out there.

Chicago's idiot BlacKKK mayor also demands reparations. In April, he made the very cogent (and very bold, as we'll see later) statement that "even restaurants have ties with slavery" (what?) so that means we need reparations.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is facing criticism after linking the restaurant industry to slavery and publicly advocating for reparations during an April 2026 press conference.
Johnson argued that efforts to change tipped wage policies would negatively impact workers in an industry he said has historical ties to slavery.
"You just watched the entire city council, in transparency, try to take wages away from the very people who are part of an industry that has its ties to slavery," Johnson said.
The mayor also reiterated his support for reparations, stating, "I am boldly declaring that we need reparations in this city, and that's why I'm funding it."
He added, "I'm a Black man in America calling for the reparations of Black people... There is no hiding or escaping that. I'm taking a bold statement here."
Everyone loves when an idiot praises himself mid-sentence.
For the rest of the day, I think everyone should try to end at least one comment with, "I'm taking a bold statement here." The stupider the preceding post, the better. TJM can work it into a Prometheus post. That would be great.

Wisconsin Democrats provided some comic relief with this since-deleted post they put up to celebrate National Dairy Month. What’s hilarious is that while we reality-based people were mocking the Democrats for putting up a picture of bulls, it is 100% consistent with where Democrats stand on issues:
• Democrats are completely oblivious about agriculture.
• Since Democrats believe that cross-dressing men have menstrual cycles and can lactate, it is entirely consistent for Dems to believe that trans-cows (e.g. bulls) can be milked.

My wife and I had a guilty pleasure for several years of watching “Live PD” and its successor “On Patrol Live.” The encounters with “sovereign citizen” were especially entertaining. Sovereign citizens think of themselves as a being a country unto themselves, or something like that, and they expect those they encounter to play along in their make-believe world.
While watching police interact with sovereign citizens, I occasionally made the observation that the entire “they/them” thing is very similar. If someone wants to look in the mirror and believe that he is the sovereign ruler of the Republic of 2914 Birchwood Street, more power to him. Just like a dude can put on women’s clothes, look in the mirror, and pretend there’s a woman staring back at him. But the rest of us don’t have to play along.
“Sovereign citizens” remind me of “they/thems,” living in a pretend world while demanding that others play along.
— Buck Throckmorton (@BuckThrockmort) May 15, 2026
If you’ve never seen a police encounter with a “sovereign citizen,” here’s an entertaining one that is not too long.
The main hangup, according to the source, was “sequencing,” referring to the order in which the terms of the arrangement would be fulfilled.
Those terms have included reopening the Strait of Hormuz, lifting the US blockade of Iranian ports, releasing frozen Iranian funds and Iran’s willingness to discuss a plan to destroy, degrade or transfer its stockpile of enriched uranium and vow to never seek a nuclear weapon.
While Iran has repeatedly demanded economic incentives before it would sign an MOU, Secretary of State Marco Rubio last week told Congress that lifting sanctions would only be considered in exchange for real nuclear concessions.
Trump, meanwhile, has repeatedly refused to release frozen Iranian assets to begin the talks.
The apparent breakthrough happened after US forces pounded Iran’s coasts overnight, targeting missile and radar systems in retaliation for the Islamic Republic downing an American Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz Monday night, as source familiar with the operation told The Post.
The strikes lasted approximately four hours and ended shortly before dawn broke across Iran, targeting the theocratic regime’s “military surveillance capabilities, communication systems and air defense sites,” according to US Central Command.
Trump announced the agreement hours after threatening to strike Iran “VERY HARD TONIGHT” in a Thursday morning post to Truth Social, adding that the US would also soon invade Kharg Island, a hub of Iranian oil refinement.
“At some point in the not too distant future, we will be taking Kharg Island, and other oil infrastructure points, and assume total control of their Oil and Gas Markets, much like we have with Venezuela,” Trump wrote on Truth Social after 8 a.m.
For me, the fly in the ointment as it were is that the Iranian regime and its ability to terrorize the world and its own citizenry as it has done ever since Jimmy Carter pig-piss be upon him allowed them to take over the country 47 years ago and metastasize into the sharp edge of the Islamic sword that has shed oceans of blood, quite a bit of it American, in that time. So color me highly skeptical...
If (the Houthis) and Iran’s other proxies now watch the United States reach for the familiar off-ramp — sanctions relief and a deal that lets its terror network survive intact — they’ll read it as confirmation that pain pays, just as Tehran taught them.
And a presidential administration that has shown its readiness to act would be squandering its own leverage if it trades pressure for the illusion of calm.
The key point is this: The Islamic Republic is not Venezuela. Rodriguez and her cronies are corrupt autocrats who want to survive; pressure can change their calculus.
Iran’s rulers are corrupt too, but the regime’s true believers also see themselves as participants in a religious struggle for jihad.
Therefore, breaking the cycle requires maintaining US pressure on Iran’s oil, drone and missile procurement networks — without trading sanctions relief for promises that will only evaporate.
It also requires treating Iran’s proxy network as a single target, from the Houthis astride Bab al-Mandab to the shops in Venezuela assembling Iranian drones, rather than chasing each flashpoint after it ignites.
And it requires providing US support to the millions of Iranians who want to bring down the regime — and have been on the streets for years facing the brutal Islamist security services alone.
All of this is grounded in a refusal to allow the regime any lifeline to continue its external aggression and internal repression.
And lest we forget, the Regime is propelled not merely by the personal venality and egomania of its leadership but primarily by Islam and its eternal quest for the subjugation of humanity, or its destruction should that goal be unobtainable. And bear in mind that with Shia Twelverism, unleashing Armageddon in the quest for global conquest is a prerequisite!
Another Taqqiya sunrise?! It sure seems that way. Can the Mullahs outlast Trump's final two years or so and are they counting on perhaps a Democrat and RINO/isolationist assisted Congress coming to power via the midterms to keep them in power, just as Congress betrayed the South Vietnamese in 1975 and unleashed the Killing Fields on southeast Asia?
We'll have to wait and see as the President is wont to say...
Just as I'm posting this, I'm hearing news that the Iranian foreign ministry is now denying that any deal at all has been reached.
“Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as President of the United States of America, cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Hamas can’t invade or bomb Israel right now, so it’s using the ceasefire to show the "Palestinian" people that it’s just as ruthless as ever.

The United States flag appeared to be met with loud boos and jeers before the opening game of the World Cup in Mexico City.
Ahead of the big kick-off between Mexico and South Africa, the flags of all 48 teams participating in this summer’s tournament were paraded onto the pitch.
The final three flags to take to the pitch were those of the three North American co-hosts, the United States, Canada and Mexico.
However, there was a marked change in atmosphere when the United States were introduced and their flag was displayed on the stadium’s big screen.
From jubilant roars, the noise of the crowd shifted, with loud boos audible as the flag of the United States was brought forward.
First of all, it's a field not a pitch. Secondly, go fuck yourselves.

Former Left-Wing Girlfriend: Gerald Platner Cheated With Me on His Fiance (Whom He Hid From Me), Said He Got a Nazi Tattoo to Remind Him That the US Was "the Bad Guy" In Foreign Policy, and Also, Has "Small Dick"
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Oh man, they always throw in that last one.
Or so I've heard. From others.
I heard Larry O'Connor promise yesterday that more is coming.
Maine Senate nominee Graham Platner kept his hideous Nazi tattoo to remind himself "the US was the evil bad guy overseas," according to an ex-girlfriend with whom he cheated on his fiancée in 2021.
The left-wing streamer, who spoke to The Post, is the second woman to say that Platner knew about the fascist origin of his Totenkopf skull and crossbones tattoo -- despite his claims that he didn't realize it was a Third Reich symbol until last fall.
Her assertions were backed up by texts reviewed by The Post that she'd sent to her mom in September 2025 in which she blasted him for his "Nazi tattoo," "small d--k" and claims that he tarnished her reputation by using her to step out on his fiancée.
The woman also offered allegations Platner cheated on a second partner before his current wife -- a now-ex-fiancée he was engaged to around that time.
"As a person who is a leftist, I immediately looked at him and asked him, 'Is that a Totenkopf?' and he told me a whole, 'he will hold this weight forever' bravado sob story about how it was, but he decided to keep it as a reminder that the United States was the evil, bad guy overseas," she recounted.
The woman spoke to The Post on the condition her name not be used.
On Wednesday, the woman publicly shared screenshots of private messages where she described the Nazi tattoo. The messages to her mother were dated Sept. 26, 2025 -- before his tattoo was publicly known.
"Better not take a peek at the Nazi tattoo on his chest," she wrote in another message to a pal.
...
"It seems like he tailored his answer to me, knowing my politics, since that's one of the reasons we matched on Tinder in the first place," she reflected.
...
She alleges that their romance together ended after she found out from mutual friends that Platner was engaged to another woman around that time.
...
The whistleblower told The Post she never wanted to come forward with her story but became concerned by what she saw as Platner's lying to the people of Maine about his tattoo, and a pattern of behavior toward women she saw in recent news reports.
She said she does not have her old texts with Platner because she deleted all his messages when she found out he was cheating.
...
Earlier this month, another former flame of Platner's, Lyndsey Fifield, told The New York Times that he was lying when he claimed to be unaware of the Nazi tattoo, recounting how he'd call it "my Totenkopf."
"I would never have known what that was," she told the outlet. "He would joke about it being a Nazi tattoo."
The outlet reviewed messages from Fifield last summer where she told friends that he "has a Nazi tattoo on his chest." She said he told her he got it because "they were like a death unit, they were killers" and he saw parallels to the Nazi SS.
Major Smallcock continues insisting that while his girlfriends and adultery-partners knew his tattoo was a Totenkopf, he did not. Because these girls didn't tell him, a "military buff" who actually chose the tattoo, what it was.
"I certainly didn't know," he added. "They didn't tell me that. Or maybe they did, but I was sobbing so hard over my pitifully small pecker I didn't hear them."
I may have added some vibes to that quote.

Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner claimed that he has been able to "make a living on the sea" since leaving the armed forces during a Friday rally, an assertion his financial disclosures don't appear to support.
Platner, who is running for Senate in Maine to unseat incumbent GOP Sen. Susan Collins, has long identified himself as an oyster farmer and harbor master, giving a blue-collar tinge to his left-wing campaign. Financial disclosures, however, show that he brings in relatively little money from oyster farming, with reports suggesting that Platner receives the majority of his income through veteran's disability payments.
"My healthcare gave me freedom," Platner said at a June 5 rally. "It gave me the freedom to take risks, to start a business and to sink my intellect and my physicality into mastering the skills necessary to make a living on the sea."
Platner's comments drew ire on social media, with many questioning the Senate hopeful's claim to working-class identity.
Platner's 2025 financial disclosures show that he listed "other $5,001" as his annual income from farming oysters. The candidate's entire business is only worth between $50,000 and $100,000, which accounts for his boat, lines, anchors and other farming equipment, per the disclosure.
He earned an additional $3,000 serving as the harbor master for Sullivan, Maine, -- a role the Washington Free Beacon reported was largely clerical and where he was responsible for overseeing the 17 boat moorings on the small town's coast.
Taken together, these sums are dwarfed by the $4,800 Platner says he receives through monthly disability payments. Platner is legally entitled to such a sum owing to injuries he suffered while serving in the armed forces.
"I've got a couple herniated discs. My shoulder's a wreck. My knees bother me. My dick looks like a tiny work poking its head up out of a bush," Platner, who saw combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, told News Center Maine in an October 2025 interview.
I may have added a little to Captain Bugfucker's quote.
Despite his reliance on disability, Platner has consistently referred to himself as an "oyster farmer" while campaigning for Senate.
"Oyster" = his tiny subwiener, "farmer" = masturbator
Update: Although that whistleblower says she deleted her texts, someone on twitter published this alleged text chain about Private Shamenoodle. He didn't tell me who supposedly wrote these.
"He's hot"? Sounds like bullshit. He looks like Captain Taggert in Beverly Hills Cock, with extra room in the crotch of his pants.
Meanwhile, Jodi Kantor, who got lots of attention as a #MeToo "reporter" -- I think she was played by the brown-haired wallflower actress in She Said, because she's a brown-hairdd wallflower-- and savaged Brett Kavanaugh for the invented Hippocampus Confabulations of Christie Blowjob Ford, now says that Gerald Platner's history of assaulting women is no big deal because you know what? Women fucking lie, don't they?

Jodi Kantor is going with the "he was just a bad boyfriend, he didn't do anything wrong" defense of Platner.
This is shameless. This woman wrote "She Said" about Harvey Weinstein's history of abuse and sexual misconduct. We were supposed to believe women.
Kantor seems willing to burn her own reputation to the ground to defend Graham Platner -- seriously? this guy? -- and to remain in good standing as a Democrat.
Pathetic.

WATCH: New York Times reporter Jodi Kantor – who wrote many of the #MeToo stories – DEFENDS Graham Platner and DISMISSES the allegations against him by @LyndseyFifield and other ex-girlfriends because they were not “abuse” and women saying they just “did not like what” they saw… pic.twitter.com/qMSSXa3XNU
New York Times reporter Jodi Kantor — who won a Pulitzer Prize for her investigative reporting on the #MeToo movement — shrugs off Graham Platner's abuse allegations. https://t.co/W126pYZEkg
Wait, are you telling me that the NYT’s Jodi Kantor is a hack partisan activist and not a real journalist? I’m learning this for the first time. https://t.co/TJdWPWclwL
If you never saw She Said you are part of the 99.9% of real humanity.
If you watch a few minutes of Despot of Antrim's video about it, you'll get the gist. (Coincidentally, I just clicked on this over the weekend, randomly. It's funny. The takedown, I mean.)
Some people just like classic Coke. Others insisted on the original Reese's recipe. New York Times writer Jodi Kantor went on CNN to explain why Democrats can vote for Maine senatorial candidate Graham Platner despite multiple women coming forward to denounce him: this is really not the classic Me Too allegations that Kantor and others seem to prefer for outrage.
Kantor won a Pulitzer Prize for her reporting on Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein's sexual abuse and was called forth by CNN to explain why it is ok for liberals to support an alleged abuser of women. A prior girlfriend has accused Platner of physically abusing her and even locking her into a room overnight. He is also accused of sexting women and dismissing rape victims.
None of that, however, necessarily presents a barrier for those who want to retake power by any means necessary.
Kantor clinically explained that these "are not classic MeToo accusations." Specifically, "they're not about a boss and a young female employee being subjected to sexual advances. They were mostly made in the context of consensual relationships. There are these, like, very sensational texts about sex. There are allegations from former girlfriends that are not -- the way my colleagues reported them were not like classic abuse allegations," she stressed.
In a statement that would have produced a torrent of condemnations if used during the Kavanaugh controversy, Kantor insisted that "they were mostly like being his boyfriend gave me a view into him and I did not like what I saw. His character was scary. He had this Nazi tattoo. Et cetera."
In fairness to Kantor, she was attempting no small feat: to allow liberals to continue to claim Me Too outrage while grabbing Maine.
Of course, Kantor quickly brushes over the other controversies beyond the abuse allegations as simply a Nazi tattoo. She omits his mocking of a wounded veteran, rural people, and rape victims while praising Hamas and embracing communism.
However, her diminishing of the account of women like Lyndsay Fifield as "they were mostly like being his boyfriend gave me a view into him and I did not like what I saw."
What Fifield alleges that she "saw" were marks left on their body after being yanked and grabbed by Platner. In one case, she claimed "he twisted her arm behind her back, shoved her into a bedroom and held the door closed from the other side so she couldn't get out, telling her to remain there until she was 'calm.'"
Kantor seems to begrudgingly acknowledge that "there was one allegation of crossing a line physically, but I think that means that these are pretty different accusations than, say, the one that -- the ones that President Trump faced."
Previously, Kantor did not draw this distinction between classic Me Too and new knockoffs involving non-employment situations. She once grouped a wide variety of controversies from Al Franken to Brett Kavanaugh to Jeffrey Epstein under the banner...
Ironically, Kantor's rationalization returns to the very partisan "older pattern" that she once denounced in how allegations from women are treated in the media.
You want to know if this is a misuse of federal taxpayer money? Well I'm glad you came to me. It is. Obviously.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is investigating the Council on American Islamic Relations-California in response to a request made by a congressional delegation led by outgoing U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas.
In April, the delegation called on HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to suspend funding for CAIR-CA and its affiliates and initiate debarment proceedings. It was done after a Department of Justice investigation was launched more than a year ago into alleged misuse of federal funds related to Afghan refugees.
"CAIR's longstanding ties to terrorist organizations, including Hamas -- a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization -- combined with documented financial mismanagement and misuse of federal grant funds administered by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), pose a grave risk to national security and render CAIR unfit to receive taxpayer dollars," the delegation argued, The Center Square reported.
The DOJ investigation was launched in response to a March 2025 Intelligent Advocacy Network complaint filed with the DOJ urging it to investigate CAIR-CA's alleged misuse of federal funds and EOIR accreditation violations. It questions millions of dollars CAIR-CA received from the federal government including for an Afghan Legal Services Project, alleges CAIR-LA is not a legal 501c3 entity, alleges accreditation violations, and alleges CAIR ties to Islamic terrorism. In response, the DOJ's Executive Office for Immigration Review launched an investigation.
HHS Assistant Secretary Gustav Chiarello on Tuesday contacted California Gov. Gavin Newswom requesting cooperation. He reiterated that HHS has the legal authority to suspend or debar recipients of federal grant funds from participating in federal welfare programs if violations are confirmed.
The California Department of Social Services "has sub-granted more than $27 million in HHS-originated funds to CAIR-CA for Afghan refugee and entrant assistance programs," he said. "Congressman Chip Roy and other members of Congress have informed HHS that there may be connections between CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood and its Palestinian branch, Hamas," a designated foreign terrorist organization.
So, once again, we have a "cleanskin" NGO taking government money and then immediately sub-granting it to a highly controversial organization that no government agency, even one controlled by Democrats, would ever fund directly, because they know the public outcry would be enormous.
So they continue allowing these NGOs to quietly, softly funnel money into what are completely inappropriate and often illegal (the Wuhan Covid Lab) purposes.
It's Official: Doctor Who Christmas Winter Holiday Special Cancelled
—Disinformation Expert Ace
You may be thinking: You already did this story, mate.
Well -- I don't think so, mate. I did a similar story, about no actor wanting to touch this franchise with a 10 foot pole.
But now it's official -- the Christmas Pagan Winter Festival Special is now cancelled.
They're not admitting -- yet -- that the entire series is now in the ashbin of history, but that's coming soon.
And gay producer Russell T Davies exits the series. I wouldn't make an issue of his sexuality, except for the fact he made his sexuality the main animating ethos of the series. So it's relevant -- he's gay, he's really really really proud of gay "Pride" culture, and he made a science-fiction show for children all about homosexuality, transgenderism, and Queer Culture.
And now he's out.
But they would have kept him on if they could land an actor to play the Fabulous Doctor.
The BBC is no longer going ahead with a "Doctor Who" Christmas special this year as planned and is seeking new production partners.
"Seeking new production partners" = our former investors are no longer willing to shovel money into this Pit of Shame.
Showrunner and writer Russell T Davies and producer Bad Wolf have officially exited the series as the BBC puts the show out to competitive tender. "'Doctor Who' remains an important part of the BBC and this tender underpins the BBC's continued commitment to 'Doctor Who' ensuring audiences will enjoy the show for years to come," a release said on Wednesday.
LOL. If BBC were really "committed" to the show they would fund it itself, not seek corporations willing to throw their money away to subsidize the dead show.
Therefore, the previously announced Christmas special will also not be going forward. "This decision was not taken lightly, and we know it will be disappointing for fans, but in order to set the show up for future series, it was decided that rather than bridge the gap with a one-off special, we are choosing to push forward to invest in the long-term future of the show which ensures that when the TARDIS lands once more, it does so in all its glory," the release stated.
You know who was fond of making announcements about upcoming projects? Kaffeine Kennedy, formerly of LucasFilm. She loved announcing new shows and movies. Cost her almost no money at all, so she didn't have to get approval from Disney corporate to "announce" a new trilogy to be directed by Patty Jenkins. Or Rian Round-Head Johnson. Or Kevin Fiege. Or... you get it.
You know who's also announcing a new Doctor Who series? I am. I'm announcing a new series which I'll be producing once rights issues are worked out with the BBC, and I get funding.
My series is just as likely to make it to air as this BBC/Corporate Partner TBD series.
In a post on Instagram, Davies said goodbye to the show, which he led from 2005 to 2010 and again since 2023 in tandem with BBC's co-production pact with Disney+. When Ncuti Gatwa departed the role of the Doctor after just two seasons last year, Disney+ exited the partnership and the series' future has remained uncertain ever since.
Well the series' future is no longer uncertain because I'm stepping up to produce it. Didn't you see my announcement? I am totally committed to my vision of this show.
Speaking of stories I've already covered: A couple of Fridays ago, I said that The Marmaduke & Garfield would fall into third place in its second weekend of exhibition. No Star Wars movie has ever fallen out of first place in its second weekend, but it was clear that The Mermaid & Gorgon would.
Well it did, but I didn't bother posting about it because I wanted to give you a break from the, I'll admit it, Endless Gay Fanboy Bullshit.
And then I didn't even mention it this week when The Marzipan and Fondu fell to sixth place, after the low-budget and apparently lame Scary Movie was released, as well as the gay toy revival Masters of the Universe. (Which is apparently decent, but... c'mon, He-Man hasn't been relevant since 1989.)
It'll fall further when Steven Spielberg's latest misfire, Disclosure Day, opens tomorrow.
Before the release of the latest Star Wars bomb, the studio bragged that it had a smallish budget of about $165 million. Studios never brag about how cheap their movies are, but Disney wanted to avoid headlines about the new Star Wars movie losing money.
But they didn't keep the budget low enough:
Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu is currently projected to finish its global theatrical run slightly shy of the $300 million mark, hovering around an estimated $293 million to $296 million worldwide.
The film opened on May 22, 2026, and after a surprisingly soft theatrical run--struggling against stiff competition from smaller-budget and viral-phenomenon films like Scary Movie and Backrooms--it has severely underperformed compared to other live-action Star Wars features.
Remember, another $80 million was spent on advertising and prints and theaters take about 50% of the box office, so this is another Star Wars movie that doesn't just underperform, but actually loses money.
Former '60 Minutes' Staffers Unload on Bari Weiss: 'Everything She's Touched Has Turned to S--'
As Bari Weiss lays waste to "60 Minutes," six former staffers sound off on the damage she's inflicted upon the crown jewel of CBS News.
Staffers have taken to calling it "Black Thursday."
On May 28, a half-dozen senior producers and correspondents at "60 Minutes," the longest-running and highest-rated news program in the country, were unceremoniously shown the door....
I spoke with six former "60 Minutes" staffers, including award-winning correspondents, producers and executives, about the chaos that's unfolded there under Weiss, a former op-ed columnist and founder of The Free Press who had no broadcast journalism -- and scant investigative reporting -- experience prior to being given the keys to CBS News.
"We have to acknowledge that '60 Minutes' needed a bit of a facelift, and there were potentially positive ways to improve the program, but it's the way they have gone about it," a former "60 Minutes" staffer says. "You don't give a facelift with a fucking machete."
...
Steve Kroft, who was a "60 Minutes" correspondent for 30 years until retiring in 2019, echoes Bergman's assessment. He believes that Trump has had it out for the newsmagazine since the Harris piece, and that Ellison and Weiss haven't demonstrated a desire to stand up to him. Ellison is, after all, still seeking FCC approval of Paramount-Skydance's $111 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery.
Oh, that old fat queen is upset, too? Bonus.
The shrieking hysterics of 60 Minutes continue demonstrating the emotional restrain of Broadway drag queens.
Lesley Stahl Says Journalists Getting Fired Is Worse Than Child Trafficking, Nazi Torture Dungeons
'Oh God, this was awful,' multimillionaire laments after corporation restructures to compete in dying industry
Lesley Stahl has seen a lot of horrible things over the course of her career at 60 Minutes, but none of it can compare to the horror she experienced watching her fellow journalists lose their jobs for being obnoxious.
"Oh God, this was awful," Stahl told Puck when asked about the half dozen veteran producers and personalities who were fired along with Scott Pelley, the veteran newsreader and combat survivor dismissed for insubordination. "This was by far the worst experience I've been involved in, or even witnessed."
The worst experience she's ever even witnessed. By far. The Puck reporter observed that Stahl's voice "trailed off, as if she was still having trouble processing what had happened during the past week or so."
Stahl is 84--even older than Joe Biden. She lived through 9/11 and the Jimmy Carter administration. She witnessed the self-inflicted debasement of her former colleague Dan Rather after he reported on forged documents purporting to cast doubt on President George W. Bush's service in the National Guard. That was pretty bad.
What else might the iconic journalist have experienced in her career that was almost, but not quite, as traumatizing as corporate restructuring in a dying industry?
Well, Stahl's first story as a 60 Minutes correspondent was about child trafficking in Romania after the fall of Nicolae Ceaușescu. She visited a family that wanted to sell their four-year-old son for $500 to buy a camcorder. The following year, Stahl interviewed survivors of Josef Mengele's twisted human experiments at Auschwitz. In 2020, she was forced to endure interviews with Rick Wilson and Steve Schmidt, cofounders of the much-maligned Lincoln Project super PAC.
It's entirely plausible that Stahl was more disturbed upon learning that a handful of journalists had been fired by CBS. After all, she is a journalist, and many journalists have described Pelley's termination alone as one the greatest tragedies to befall mankind.
...
It's also possible that Stahl has mild to moderate dementia. Perhaps she can't remember watching parents negotiate to sell their children for color TVs. Her more recent output, on the other hand, is composed almost entirely of what industry insiders might call "vacuous fluffery."
Over the last few years, Stahl has examined the benefits of "gender affirming care," documented former congresswoman Liz Cheney's abiding hatred for Donald Trump, and extolled the (alleged) comedy of former Daily Show host Trevor Noah. Despite her reluctance to "become part of the story," Stahl performed a 60 Minutes monologue about her personal battle with COVID-19--a potentially harrowing ordeal given her advanced age, but less so given her exorbitant net worth.
Stahl encountered more traumatic experiences in 2025 while interviewing Yarden Bibas, an Israeli taken hostage by Hamas whose wife and two sons were killed in captivity. It's not entirely clear if Stahl viewed the hostages as victims, given her egregious attempts to empathize with the Hamas terrorists.

Mary Katherine Ham gave Sobbin' Scott Pelley a reality check:
I guess I'm compelled to cover the daily diary drama of static stalemate and infinite "peace deals" about to be signed any moment now:
Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as President of the United States of America, cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening. Discussions and final points have been, in both concept and great detail, approved by all parties involved, including the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, and others. The Naval Blockade will remain in full force and effect until this Transaction is finalized -- Time and place of the signing to be announced shortly.
Sure.
But I think I've heard this before 18 to 35 times before.
Unrelated: A Somali referee was denied a visa from the Trump Administration due to terrorist ties.
According to NBC News, Artan's denial was due to the Trump administration's discriminatory anti-immigration policies.'
He is not an isolated case: 15 Iranian officials have also been denied entry, according to Iranian state media, as has the official Iraqi team photographer. An Iraqi player, Aymen Hussein, and other teams say they have been subjected to intensive and sometimes invasive searches at the border.
Oh no! Iranian officials have been denied entry into the country? And their only mission was to appear at a stadium, also known as a "target for a mass casualty event"?
The racism you guys, the sheer racism. My heart cannot take it.
Al-Shabaab, the Somali franchise of Al Qaeda, declares their support for the terrorist ref.
Al-Shabaab co-founder & former spokesperson for Alshabab Mukhtar Robow is currently Somalia's Minister of Endowments & Religious Affairs, appointed by Hassan Sheikh. The U.S. once offered a $5 million bounty for Robow. I guess U.S. taxpayers money was well spent.
Savage Anthony Karmelo Supporters Now Making Death Threats Against Austen Metcalf's Family and Randomly Punching White People in the Face for TikTok Clout; White People Must Remain Calm and Not Cause Incitement or Division
—Disinformation Expert Ace
I mean obviously, it's on us normies being targeted by racial violence to be calm and not provoke thugs who have been taught that they have a free-floating right to attack or kill white people and if you challenge that right, then you are the next to be attacked or killed.
In fact, we should apologize to the Race Attackers for making it necessary to play the Knockout Game.
The media always attacks normal people for getting angry and becoming "radicalized" while they make infinite excuses not just for black assaults but for black incitements to commit assault.
Some "incitements," like the Crime of Noticing, should be punished by the state and, the state being absent, by Street Vigilantes enforcing Blood Reparations.
But other incitements to commit violence and demonization and dehumanization of another race are just "Good Trouble" which should be justified, defended, and amplified by the media.
wisted Karmelo Anthony supporters are bombarding the family of slain high school football player Austin Metcalf with sickening death threats, including a disgusting message saying Austin's twin brother, Hunter, should have also been killed.
The hateful messages started after Anthony's arrest last April, but went into overdrive after he was convicted of Metcalf's murder and sentenced to 35 years in prison Tuesday -- with some of the heinous abuse even sent to their personal phones, according to TMZ.
"Your [sic] just mad bc Austin is no longer living. Should've stabbed hunter too ... he f--ked around and found out," one of the messages read.
The unhinged supporters have also threatened to show up at the homes of Metcalf family members, even saying they were desecrating Austin's grave, according to the outlet.
This nasty demon wrote an open letter to Jeff Metcalf, father of murdered Austin Metcalf, telling him that he is the Real Killer Here of his son because he failed to instruct his son that "black boys have boundaries," meaning, if you offer black males what they might consider "disrespect" they can (and should!) commit murder.
But you know, black economic inequality is caused exclusively by White Oppression and not at all by a thuggish culture that celebrates violence as "authentic blackness."
Are we really now at the state where black radical racists and "allies" openly declare what they have long hinted at -- that they have an unquestioned right to attack or even murder white people who do not afford them enough deference and "disrespect"?
DISGUSTING: Black woman in Tampa, Florida, has joined a disturbing trend of anti-white attacks, in which black individuals approach random white strangers, physically assault them, and falsely claim that they served on the jury that convicted Karmelo Anthony in his murder trial.… pic.twitter.com/qgOUzQC8Em
— Reverend Jordan Wells (@WellsJorda89710) June 10, 2026
I wonder where these thugs are getting the idea that they can assault or even kill white people as part of their racial reparations package?
We have lost our minds.
A jury convicted Karmelo Anthony of murder for stabbing 17-year-old Austin Metcalf to death. Evidence was presented. Witnesses testified. Self-defense was rejected. He got 35 years. That’s not a “legal lynching.” That’s justice.
🚨 BREAKING / RECEIPTS: Thelma Anderson was presented online as a legal voice after the Karmelo Anthony verdict but there is one very important detail people were not told.
The State Bar of Texas currently lists Ms. Thelma M. Anderson as "Not Eligible to Practice in Texas" with disciplinary status: "Suspended: Disciplinary Reasons."
And it gets worse.
The Texas Board of Disciplinary Appeals says Anderson pleaded guilty in federal court to wire fraud, was adjudicated guilty, received four years of probation, and was ordered to pay $20,871 in restitution to the SBA.
[https://tinyurl.com/5n77asvs]
FOX 4 previously reported Anderson was a former Dallas County prosecutor accused of taking out a roughly $20K PPP loan using fraudulent paperwork while claiming payroll expenses for a side business. FOX also reported she had been an assistant district attorney at the Dallas County DA's Office from 2016 to 2022. [https://fox4news.com/news/thelma-an
derson-ppp-loan-fraud
]
So before anyone sells her as an "attorney" giving serious legal commentary on the Karmelo case, maybe ask the obvious question:
Why was the audience not told she is currently not eligible to practice law in Texas?
That is not a small detail.
That is the whole credibility problem.
A lot of blacks are speaking out about their own "black fatigue," being tired of bad behavior and criminality of their more criminal cousins.
Unfortunately, another bad aspect of black culture -- unthinkingly taking the side of another black no matter how indefensible his behavior is -- means that these people are routinely called "Uncle Toms" and "coons."
They are also guilty of the Racial Crime of Noticing.
Whistleblower Vindicated: Biden Officials Conspired to Violate Court Order Stating that "Transgender" Could Not be Classified as a Protected Categroy Under Title IX (Which Protects Women on the Basis of "Sex", Not "Gender Identification")
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Plus: After this article, the worst transgenders-in-girls-sports story I've ever read. I didn't want to put it in the headline. It's a very vulgar sexual violation committed during a sport.
High-ranking Biden administration officials conspired to violate a 2022 court order against their interpretation of Title IX as covering "gender identity" within the definition of "sex," and may have also tried to conceal those efforts through coercion and intimidation, according to a Department of Education report made public Wednesday after lengthy outside review.
The U.S. Office of Special Counsel told President Trump the department "fully substantiated the allegations" by whistleblower Timothy Mattson, who now leads the department's Office for Civil Rights' regional office in Kansas City, recommending sanctions against current and former officials and compensation for Mattson for the risk he took coming forward.
"OSC has reviewed the disclosure, agency reports, and whistleblower comments," and "determined that the reports contain the information required by statute and that the findings appear reasonable," the agency's chief counsel, Charles Baldis, told Trump in a four-page letter.
The Feb. 19 "supplemental" report, compelled by the Trump administration's OSC after President Biden's OSC dismissed Mattson's allegations a month before the presidential transition, repeatedly names then-OCR Director Catherine Lhamon as the key figure directing Mattson and others to continue enforcing the gender-identity guidance.
"OCR's leadership actively engaged in efforts to thwart at least one OCR regional office (Region VII) [Kansas City] from following the plain and unambiguous meaning of the order" by U.S. District Judge Charles Atchley, a Trump nominee, who blocked enforcement of the guidance in the states that sued the feds, the supplemental report says.
The order validated years of accusations that Lhamon's office, which she led in the Obama and Biden administrations as assistant secretary for civil rights, misrepresented nonbinding guidance as legally binding, threatening federal funding for K-12 schools and colleges that didn't bend the knee.
Days after Atchley's order, in a virtual meeting with Mattson, Lhamon "stated that she planned to disregard the advice provided by" her own general counsel and the Justice Department "in navigating OCR's response to the Injunction." (Biden's OSC claimed Mattson "misunderstands the scope of the Court's injunction.")
Below: One of the worst transgenders-violating-women-in-sports stories I've heard.
A male was allowed to compete in wrestling -- the most contact of all contact sports -- against girls.
The male fingered his female opponent while wrestling her, pushing aside her spandex and thrusting his male fingers into her vagina.
The second shock unfolded slowly, as the district quietly abandoned Kallie.
Her mom reported the assault the next school day. Officials should have reported it to the Title IX coordinator immediately and law enforcement within 48 hours.
Labour triggers Belfast attack censorship row as it sets out plans for new crackdown on social media content 'in times of crisis'
Social media is to face new curbs during 'times of crisis' like the Belfast attack.
Technology secretary Liz Kendall has unveiled plans to amend online safety laws to allow regulator Ofcom to impose a crackdown at times of heightened social and political tension.
The move will allow Ofcom to require tech firms to take tougher action on material that could 'incite violence or disorder'.
It follows growing anger among ministers about Elon Musk's ability to 'amplify' public concern over incidents like Henry Nowak's murder and this week's knife attack in Belfast.
But it also threatens to trigger a major row about censorship -- and a potential clash with the White House over free speech.
In a statement posted on Mr Musk's X site, Ms Kendall said: 'Those who use social media to incite violence and disorder are breaking the law. Next week we will lay in Parliament an update to the Online Safety Act requiring services to take quicker action to remove illegal content circulating during times of crisis.'
So endless indulgence to foreign war-criminals, rapists, and escaped maniacs, but they're going to put out an arrest warrant for Elon Musk for not blocking the video that shows the crime they are complicit in themselves.
In a clip below the fold, a the Minister for Northern Ireland -- a leftwing Karen, of course-- makes that explicit, stating "I wish people didn't see that video."
"I wish we could just cover up our crimes forever and censor anyone exposing them."
That's what you meant.
She added: 'I have explicitly asked Ofcom to discuss urgently with X and other platforms how they will comply with the Online Safety Act.'
Government sources said the move would cover any material which Ofcom considers might incite violence or disorder.
Unlimited immigration from third word barabarian states is what directly causes violence or disorder, but they won't do a thing about that.
It is unclear who will determine what constitutes a 'time of crisis'.
It's pretty clear to me -- a "time of crisis" is any period in which the consequences of the left's Third Worldism Agenda are made visible to the public.
The prominent Reform UK politician Matt Goodwin urged ministers to focus on dealing with the causes of public anger rather than trying to police social media.
'It's not social media that's "inflaming tensions",' he said. 'It's not Elon Musk. It's not Nigel Farage. It's not the "far-right". It is the very deliberate policy of mass uncontrolled immigration and open borders. This policy has to end or it will destroy Western nations.'<
Mr Musk responded to Mr Goodwin with a one-word post, saying: 'Exactly.'
But Labour Party chair Anna Turley said Mr Musk should stay out of sensitive political events like the Belfast attack.
...
'He has a responsibility - everyone in public and civil life has a responsibility to call for calm and not to stoke grievance or hatred or division or tension that puts vulnerable people and our communities at risk.'
Riots are the voices of the unheard. The left said that. Was that not true when you said it? If it was not true, why did you say it?
BREAKING NEWS: Australia's public broadcaster ABC News just accused @elonmusk
of ''inciting racial tension'' in Belfast because he did not censor footage showing a Sudanese refugee attempting to behead someone.
They're angrier at Elon than at the stabber.
The left is freaking out because someone on the vague "right" of the UK stated, accurately, that the UK is importing people from an "alien culture" who believe in beheading as a method of conflict resolution.
But while the non-elected members of the left seethe and howl about it, Islamoleftist British politicians just refuse to answer the question of whether they believe public beheadings are of an alien culture, or are a British tradition.
Labour MP and Secretary of State for Northern Ireland Hilary Benn is asked FOUR TIMES if beheading people is an alien culture
He refuses to answer
If you want to know why our country is such a mess
I mean yeah they chopped off Charles I's head but that was a long time ago.
"It's my nature," said the scorpion.
It has now been revealed that the Belfast man who was nearly beheaded by an African migrant, Stephen Ogilvie, was helping the same man who attacked him move in as a next door neighbor just four days before the attack. pic.twitter.com/Rj5HuZt2YB

Hello. Happy Thursday. It's been a really rotten week hasn't it?
One of the more corrosive aspects of American foreign policy with respect to NATO and Europe has been the infantilization of Western Europe. After World War II they quickly became militarily subservient to America, which, while understandable, created the conditions necessary for their massive welfare states and an equally massive shift toward cultural passivity. No longer did they see themselves as defenders of their countries and their lives...that was America's job, while they enjoyed six weeks of vacation and cradle-to-grave social services. Never mind that their medical care was awful, and their standard of living lagged far behind America's...everything was being done for them, including protecting them from the consequences of their passivity...the loss of martial spirit, patriotism, love of native culture, etc.
The results are clear! Europe is being subsumed under a tidal wave of third world immigration, led by the revolutionary political philosophy of Islam, that without some cataclysmic change will soon rule the UK, France, Belgium, and perhaps others.
Regardless of America's previous domination of European defense, it is high time that their cultures mend themselves and take responsibility for their military failings. It is axiomatic that a country that cannot defend itself cannot long survive, even in our post-modern malaise. The hordes crashing Europe's borders care not a whit about self-actualization and pronouns and transsexualism and gay marriage and policing free speech. They care about conquest, and they will succeed!
Europeans are increasingly questioning whether the United States would come to their defense in a military crisis, according to a new survey showing confidence in America's security commitment has fallen to record lows.
The poll, released Wednesday by the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR), found that only 11% of respondents across 15 European countries now view the United States as an ally "sharing our interests and values," down from 22% in November 2024.
Researchers said the findings reflect "deep European distrust in the U.S." ahead of upcoming G7 and NATO summits.
While most Europeans still see America as a "necessary partner," majorities in every country surveyed said they no longer believe the U.S. would necessarily come to their aid if they were attacked.
This is magnificent news! It is the first step for Europe moving out of America's basement and finding its own place in the world! The real question is whether the existential ennui that infects most of Western Europe can be banished as they see the consequences of their subservience to American power.
Will France regain the martial spirit of de Gaulle? In 1966, he demanded that all American troops must leave France, and France left NATO's integrated command structure, leaving it as a free agent. Good or bad...it was national self-determination, and it stiffened the backbones of the French.
Will The United Kingdom regain the cold resolve of Margaret Thatcher, who dispatched the Royal Navy 8,000 miles to defend the Falklands? That was the last gasp of patriotism in the UK!
Will Germany return to the Germany of the 1980s; with a superb armed forces that knew it was first to do battle with the Soviet juggernaut, and was determined to succeed?
Time will tell, and the smart money is against all of that, but rejecting American dominance and accepting that they are all independent countries is a good start.

The US military launched a fresh wave of strikes on Iran Wednesday evening, hours after President Trump warned additional attacks on the Islamic Republic were coming to try and force Tehran to re-enter serious peace negotiations.
“U.S. Central Command [CENTCOM] forces began launching additional self-defense strikes today at 5:15 p.m. ET against multiple targets in Iran at the Commander in Chief’s direction,” the Tampa, Fla.-based combat command said in a statement on X.
“The strikes are in response to Iran’s unwarranted and continued aggression.”
. . . Asked what he’ll do if Tehran doesn’t make a deal, the president responded: “We’ll bomb the s–t out of them tomorrow.”
Trump also revealed he spoke with top Iranian officials in the Situation Room who begged him to stop bombing.
Wait, what have we been doing for the past few months already?! Look, the Mullahs are an absolute existential threat to us and to civilization itself, but bombing the shit out of them thus far has not really done the job insofar as removing the danger posed by the regime itself which despite everything is still in power and given the nature of Islam will remain in power regardless of who the cardboard cutout-du-jour is today or will be tomorrow. And with that I give you this unsettling observation by friend and friend of the blog the estimable Robert Spencer
The Iranian state-controlled West Asia News Agency (WANA) picked up on the story, and it’s easy to see why. WANA reported Tuesday that “several foreign and Israeli media outlets have claimed that $3 billion worth of Iranian assets was transferred from Abu Dhabi to Tehran on a recent flight, reportedly as part of diplomatic efforts aimed at preventing further escalation in the region.”
This was not a transaction that solely involved the United Arab Emirates and the Islamic Republic of Iran. WANA continued: “According to a report by Israel’s Kan broadcaster, the assets were transferred to Tehran on a flight from Abu Dhabi. The report alleges that, in return, Iran was asked to halt its attacks against Israel. Kan further claimed that the message accompanying the transfer, reportedly delivered on behalf of the United States, included assurances that Israel would suspend its military operations in Lebanon.”. . .Oh, surely not, right? This must be propaganda from Iran’s Islamic regime, right? They’re just trying to make Donald Trump look as if he has morphed into Barack Obama, bribing the Iranian leaders to be good so as to burnish his legacy and give the appearance of peace while actually kicking the problem of the Islamic Republic of Iran down the road for some future president to deal with — right?
Well, maybe. And yet… given Trump’s recent behavior, the report, which appears indeed to have originated with Israel’s Kan, is really not as farfetched as we all wish it were. Would Trump have done this, despite his previous disdain for Obama’s nuclear deal, and the billions that Obama sent to Tehran in addition to concluding that disastrous agreement?
. . .Sure he would. Trump is now avid to make a deal with the Islamic Republic that will bring down gas prices and allow him to claim victory (as well as, finally, get that Nobel Peace Prize he so desperately covets). He is drawing red line after red line for the leaders of the Islamic Republic and then allowing them to cross those red lines with impunity. He has ordered Israel not to retaliate to Iranian strikes, and shrugged off Iranian violations of his ridiculous ceasefire as unimportant, signaling for Tehran and all the world that he lacks the will to fight and will give anything, anything to the leaders of Iran’s Islamic regime if they’ll just let him play peacemaker. So why not three billion dollars? Yet at the same time, Trump said Wednesday: “We’re going to be attacking them and attacking them very hard.” He added: “I’ve been working with Iran for a number of months, and they should sign their deal. It’s a good deal. It doesn’t give them the right to have a nuclear weapon. In fact, it totally prohibits them from ever having a nuclear weapon.”
The Iranian Islamic regime will never agree to that. If it does, it will only be so as to buy time in order to gather its strength, in view of the moment when it resumes its jihad against the United States and Israel. In light of the fact that it has not ever really stopped that jihad, that moment will likely come quite soon, whatever Trump does at this point.
Well, I certainly hope Robert Spencer's fears about the President are unjustified and yet despite the pulverizing sustained aerial assault that no doubt the President and his advisers thought would cause the regime to collapse like a soggy biryani, the word negotiations is all the rage. The only thing that should be "negotiated" is the date and time of Iran's unconditional surrender. Oh well, oh well.
And that goes double to the nth degree for the Democrat Party and Leftists here at home. It and they cannot be eradicated (figuratively speaking of course) fast enough for my liking because for the better part of our nearly 250-year history they have gone pedal to the metal to quite literally eradicate us! The bitter irony of ironies is that they have used and abused blacks as the tip of the spear in their lethal assault on the American experiment. Yet again they have turned a black youth who brutally murdered a white classmate into the victim and the victim into the perpetrator. The reaction by this hack alleged singer is typical...
The case grabbed national headlines for ghoulish reasons. The facts were never in doubt, beyond the worst of the worst fever swamps. Metcalf was unarmed. Anthony used a small knife to stab the teen in the heart after a disagreement.
That explains the jury’s quick pace. Singer Cardi B sees it differently.

this foul shit-whore actually has a point. It was not justice because he should've got the death penalty.
On Tuesday, the House Judiciary Committee held a hearing on the Southern Poverty Law Center. Republicans are rightfully scrutinizing the organization's practices, and one of their witnesses was Dr. Alveda King.
In case you're unfamiliar with Dr. King, she's a child of the Civil Rights movement. Her father is Alfred Daniel King, the younger brother of Martin Luther King Jr., and she's quite accomplished in her own right. She represented the 28th District in the Georgia House of Representatives as a Democrat, but she eventually switched to the Republican Party and has famously said that she is a Christian first before associating with any political party.
Like her father and uncle, Alveda has chosen to dedicate her life to speaking up for those who can't speak for themselves. However, in her case, it's the unborn — she's had two abortions and was nearly aborted by her own mother before her grandfather talked her out of it, and after becoming a born-again Christian in 1983, she changed her views on the matter. She believes abortion and racial discrimination go hand-in-hand, and has said that Planned Parenthood profits from killing "black babies."
She has served as an advisory board member for Black Voices for Trump, and she's currently the senior advisor on Faith and Community Outreach for the U.S. Department of Agriculture. She's also the chair of the Center for the American Dream at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI), and she has advised Donald Trump in other roles throughout the years.
But none of that is good enough for Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). According to her, Dr. King isn't black enough. Or isn't King enough. Or something. . .
. . ."Congresswoman, I am a bit emotional. I'm going to watch what I say, but it seems as though you have suggested that I am a bastard to the King family legacy," Alveda said. "I am legitimately the daughter of the Rev. Alfred Daniel Williams King and Dr. Naomi Ruth Barber King. We are a family who loves God. And I love you. God bless you."
Not that Crockett was around to see it. She got up and left — you can hear the door slam — in the midst of Alveda's words.
To call Jasmine Crockett dog excrement would be a cruel and demeaning insult to canine feces.
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said its forces began carrying out “self-defense strikes” at Trump’s direction at approximately 5 p.m. Eastern time, describing the operation as “a proportional response to unjustified Iranian aggression.” Trump Warns Iran the Time for Talks Is Over: Act Now or ‘Pay the Price’

Alveda invoked her uncle's words in her opening remarks, along with Bible verses (a Democrat's kryptonite), as well as her family's legacy.. . just to see the contrast between these two women. It's certainly something. This Classy Clapback From Alveda King to Jasmine Crockett Is a Must-Watch
The elimination of Abu-Bilal al-Minuki and other militants significantly weakens the Islamic State’s operational capabilities in West Africa and reduces its ability to plan attacks globally. President Trump hailed al-Minuki’s death as a major blow to ISIS, saying the militant leader would “no longer terrorize the people of Africa” or help plan attacks against Americans.

Sum it all up, and Republicans will gain something like 10 “safe” or “leaning GOP” seats, perhaps slightly less if some of their assumptions in drawing new districts were too optimistic. That makes it much easier to imagine them holding on to the majority — by a thread. To do it, they’ll need to win some races in the dwindling number of genuinely competitive districts.

The sustained decreases mark a notable shift in a category that has long frustrated consumers and policymakers alike.

Antares today announced that its Mark-0 microreactor achieved initial criticality at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) under U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) authorization - making Antares the first private company to bring an advanced reactor to criticality under the DOE Reactor Pilot Program. The demonstration was conducted in partnership with DOE, INL, and BWX Technologies, Inc. (BWXT), with integration and observation support from the U.S. Army.
This reactor validates key reactor physics parameters for Antares' reactors and contributes verification and validation data back to the Department of War's Project Pele. The Mark-0 was authorized by DOE under the Reactor Pilot Program, with the U.S. Army integrated throughout as a future end user. This model of interagency coordination directly supports the Army's microreactor deployment timeline.
The demonstration and the licensing pathway it establishes represent a key step toward deploying electricity-producing microreactors for U.S. military installations by September 30, 2028.
NASA plans to open up competition for control over the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), which has historically been operated by the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). This move is part of an even larger reorganization by the agency (though NASA asserts that this doesn't mean layoffs).
"NASA announced today that they will compete the contract for operating JPL, with Caltech's current agreement ending on Sept. 30, 2028," reads a statement today (May 22) from JPL. Caltech has managed JPL since the lab's inception in the 1930s, and has done so for NASA since the agency was established in 1958. According to the JPL statement, Caltech has been preparing for this possible transition since last summer, so the news "comes as no surprise." But the potential change is part of a larger shakeup for the agency.
Until now, JPL and Caltech have been heavily intertwined, with mission personnel, scientists, leadership, and others working closely "across the pond" between JPL and Caltech. JPL mission and program meetings often include Caltech employees and sometimes even take place on its Pasadena campus.

Never seen this before, not new, and don't have any idea how it found me. Pretty sure that means that I must share it with you.
Plot E of the Oise-Aisne American cemetery in northern France.
Go ahead and look. You won't find it listed on the Veterans Administration website, nor any of the literature provided by the cemetery. Maps will show Plots A, B, C, and D only, those containing 6012 American dead from WWI. Google Earth will just show an expanse of green. It's like it doesn't exist, which is exactly what its creators intended.
But it's very much there, and serves a necessary if somewhat unsavory purpose.
Plot E is where American servicemen are buried who were executed - by firing squad or hanging - for capital crimes committed in the European theatre during or shortly after WWII.
Some of the victims were children. Many were women. Most are forgotten by the modern age, though at least one - Sir Eric Teichman, killed on his ancestral estate confronting two U.S. soldiers poaching on the land - was a prominent member of society who still has his own Wikipedia page.
Bidding paddles are sure to go flying in the air as auctioneer Alexandre Giquello of Hôtel Drouot in Paris, France, accepts offers on the first-ever handbag made with collagen from lab-grown Tyrannosaurus rex fossils, which were reportedly exhumed in the US...
With an asking price ranging from €300,000 to 500,000 ($347,081 to $578,469), the ancient accessory is an expensive, albeit exclusive piece that will go to the highest bidder with the deepest pockets.
Following an extensive process - including harvesting T. rex DNA, conducting phylogenetic analyses, inserting the materials into a specialized bio-leather cell line genome, transforming the cells into skin and sustainably tanning the skin to create the leather - the scientists have managed to make primeval magic.
Should I be impressed with the scientific homage to prehistoric dino ancestors or horrified at the involuntary transformation of T. rex DNA into a purse?
Eess next...dino wear. Very nice.

YouTube is filled with niche channels. When anyone can broadcast their own content, the barriers to entry are low. The possibility of monetization creates incentives to create content. Of course, easier access does not mean higher quality. There is a staggering amount of garbage, but there are gems out there.
People with very specific content somehow get connected to others with sympathies for that specific content. Instead of "broadcasting," it is called "narrowcasting." More to say about this in coming ONTs, but we're going to feature one niche YouTube channel with a surprisingly (at least to me) large following each Wednesday.
Tonight's feature is Matt Horn, the drum tech. 96k+ subscribers and videos that often exceed 100k views each. His videos are usually his point of view as he goes about his working day and does his job. Nothing fancy. No highly polished graphics or editing. No bad narrator or overhyped dramatic background music.

Oof. Reviewers do not like Scary Movie 6. The criticism I keep hearing is that the movie mistakes a reference for an actual joke. The movie (they say) keeps Key Jangling a reference to another movie (or some other pop culture ephemera) and you expect there to be a joke but nope, the Key Jangle was the joke. Other reviewers say that the promise that "no lines will be uncrossed" is a fake-out, and that the movie is bland and inoffensively corporate.
Whoops! I posted about Dan Goldman losing the NY congressional primary. He might do that, but it won't be tonight -- the primary isn't held until June 23.
One race to keep an eye on: the Levi's heir nepo baby and egregious "Designated Liar" Dan Goldman -- one of the Democrats from a safe district Democrats send out to spread their most indefensible lies -- may actually lose his lower Manhattan/Brooklyn set due to, get this, antisemitism in the Democrat primary electorate. Antisemitism? In the anti-Nazi Democrat Party? Sounds crazy, I know, but apparently the anti-Nazi Party wants to eliminate Jews.

Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., on Platner: "We know that Graham has lived not your typical political experience. He's been very clear and open with his wife, and they worked through whatever they worked through. At the end of the day, this man has had 60 more town halls than Susan Collins has. He's winning the polls, he's willing to accept that he has grown as a person, and I think we should accept that."
Gallego says the drip-drip of revelations won't harm Platner's campaign.
"I think you guys are all in a bubble here right now. The drip, drip that's actually happening is Americans are really, really hurt the fact that gas is still high, food is still high, they can't buy a home, you can't afford rent. They're not going to care about text messages and everything else like that that happened years ago, especially when it was worked out between spouses."
I like that he says that it's okay that Graham Platner sexted 12 different women within months of marrying the woman to sponge off her because he wasn't then "living a political life" -- the clear meaning being, "We all cheat, we just don't cheat when we're running for office, and he didn't know he was running for office when he was sending dicpics to half the women he ran into."
Except he was running: His own wife turned the sexts over to his campaign.
And obviously Reuben Gallego didn't let his "political life" get in the way of his extramarital dating life:

From the CA Post:
Spencer Pratt is now Karen Bass' biggest headache.
A bombshell California Post poll conducted with McLaughlin & Associates shows the reality TV star-turned-mayoral candidate has surged to a statistical tie with the incumbent mayor.
And voters blame homelessness, affordability and the direction of Los Angeles as the reason for turning on Bass.
Pratt now leads the field with 30.1% support, compared with 29.5% for Bass, setting up a razor-thin race heading into next week's primary.
Socialist councilwoman Nithya Raman sits in third place at 23.4%.
