The Morning Report — 8/25/25

Good morning kids. Hope you all had a restful and enjoyable weekend. Off we go into the madness. The Democrat Left are nothing if not utterly predictable and as such tedious and irksome, as well as completely repugnant. First up, we have yammering syphilitic chimpanzee Brandon Johnson squatting on his haunches and picking the nits out of his crotch while allowing America's second city to disintegrate into a completely unlivable hellscape.

Let’s check in with Chicago. So far, 172 people were shot in Chicago in August, 41 were shot this week and 1,277 were shot this year so far. According to the media, this is fine. . . Why would you think Chicago needs help? We’ve liberated countries with fewer problems and less corrupt governments than Chicago.

With that bleak assessment, which for years sad to say we have read on a nearly weekly if not daily basis. Nor is it really new for almost any Democrat controlled metropolitan area. So President Trump is now considering sending in the National Guard to clean up Chicago. Which caused the aforementioned degenerate Johnson to go himself (aka Ape).

Sunday on MSNBC’s “The Weekend,” Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) said that if President Donald Trump sent the National Guard to his city, the people would rise up against “tyranny.”

Aside from the El Ruqns or Jan Schakowsky's rent-a-thugs or perhaps arming the criminals already in the Chicago jails, how many divisions does Johnson have?

If the people of Chicago had their druthers, I'd wager they'd march on Chicago's city hall with torches and pitchforks. At least the ones who having voted Democrat (or had their votes pre-cast for Democrats) for decades and are sick of what's been done to them by that party.

Speaking of being tired of the same old shit, the judicial coup rolls on:

Care for more repulsive chutzpocrisy, take a look at the links about Hakeem Jeffries and that Abigail Spanberger shit-whore.

An Obama-appointed judge ruled late Friday that the Trump administration could not deny federal funds to dozens of cities and counties over their sanctuary policies.

U.S. District Judge William Orrick, appointed to the bench in northern California by President Barack Obama, extended a preliminary injunction that blocks the Trump administration from withholding or conditioning federal funds from jurisdictions that refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities, according to court documents. The lawsuit, originally filed by San Francisco officials earlier this year, has since taken on many other sanctuary jurisdictions as plaintiffs.

I do not know what the mechanism is for transferring funds from the treasury to the states, but I would completely ignore this judge's ruling and block the funds. If that's not possible, then call out the national guard on as many of these so-called sanctuary cities as possible and go to town. Round 'em up and ship 'em out! ¡Con gusto!

Shifting gears completely, with a bit of relief and pretty damned good news.

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projected that tariffs implemented by President Donald J. Trump could reduce total deficits by $4 trillion over the next decade. . . CBO Director Phillip Swagel wrote: “If there are no further changes in tariff rates, we project that customs duties from new and existing tariffs will total about $200 billion this fiscal year.” . . . The analysis suggests that maintaining Trump’s tariffs would reduce federal borrowing and interest costs, leading to significant deficit reductions.

That is a pretty staggering number. Imagine what could be accomplished if along with raising the cash to pay down the deficits we cut the federal budget and bureaucracy over the long haul and shrink the size of the government.

On this bit of very good news and hope for the future, there's lots of links to chew over.

Have a great day!

I do so again today for the protection of the new parties in this case.” (Quintuple the number of ICE and National Guardsmen there - jjs
