The Morning Report — 8/ 6 /26

Good morning kids. With all the insanity going on here and abroad these days, hell every day, let's start off with some good news and considering who's involved rather surprising. Good for Justice Sotomayor.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor denied an appeal from the Palestinian Liberation Organization and the Palestinian Authority to halt a $656 million judgment.

The ruling means the victims and their families are now one step closer to being paid damages, following years of legal battles over terrorism attacks.

“The lawsuit was filed by victims of attacks in Jerusalem in the early 2000s that killed 33 people and wounded hundreds more,” the Associated Press reported. “Families brought their lawsuit under the Anti-Terrorism Act, a law aimed at opening U.S. courts to victims of international terror attacks.”

A significant legal victory for American victims of Palestinian terrorism.

I suppose I could be cynical and say given the trajectory of the nation, at least the seeming trajectory in throwing a bone to the cockeyed optimists out there — before long this decision will somehow become null and void.

Barring some wholly unforeseen development, such as Republicans actually mounting an effective challenge somewhere, the 120th Congress will convene on January 3, 2027 with a record seven Muslim members, six representatives and, for the first time in American history, one senator. And for Muslim Brotherhood-linked organizations in the U.S., the future looks bright.

Before 2007, there were no Muslim in the House of Representatives or Senate at all. The seven Muslim legislators who will be sworn in (on the Qur’an, no doubt) in January will include the four representatives in the 119th Congress: Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.); Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.); Andre Carson (D-Ind.), and Lateefah Simon (D-Calif.). Joining them will be the nation’s first Muslim senator, Abdul El-Sayed (D-Mich.), as well as Reps. Darializa Avila Chevalier (D-N.Y.) and Adam Hamawy (D-N.J.).

My only consolation in an Islamized Ameriqqqa is that should I God-forbid still be alive to witness that nightmare I will at least have the pleasure of watching the Democrats and Leftists get their heads lopped off first, having sold us down the river and thus rendering their political alliance with Islam no longer necessary and its own preternatural lust for absolute power, that led to this alliance of convenience, a potential threat to our new Mullahocratic overlords.

Elsewhere, and as CBD and I have discussed with disgust for the umpteenth friggin' time on the latest episode of the podcast linked here as well as in the sidebar and on all the popular platforms listed at the bottom of the post, We are fed up with President Trump's constant yammering about how Iran is going to get it good and hard if they don't sign on to some bullshit ceasefire accord.

Well, leave it to Lurker extraordinaire, friend of the blog and #1 Ace cruelty fanboi Prof. Victor Davis Hanson to be the one to put things in perspective.

The Long View of Iran: The headlines focus on negotiations, but the war’s real story is this: Iran is steadily being broken by sanctions, isolation, and relentless military pressure. . . Bottom line? Iran is losing whether it is being bombed, sanctioned, or embargoed—or all three. Its ultimate fate now rests with the Trump administration, which apparently has not yet decided what, exactly, that fate will be.

Read the whole thing as he goes point by point.

Well, at least CBD and I shockingly over the course of the last several episodes have completely ignored the Fauci revelations. Wow, how did we miss that? Others seem to think that Senator Rand Paul is going to come down hard on the Mass-murdering fiend. Considering his victim count, between the virus cum bio-weapon he created for the Chi-Coms with our own money as well as the toxic vaccines from Big Pharma, is up there with Pol Pot if not Mao or Stalin, a gallows would be appropriate if not too good for this rodent-like bastard.

When Anthony Fauci pleaded the Fifth over 100 times during a Senate hearing last week, many Americans were pleased that the face of the Biden administration’s coronavirus response was forced to face his critics. But many other Americans were left wondering: would Fauci face anything worse than an embarrassing viral hearing? He will if Senator Rand Paul has anything to say about it. The Kentucky Republican is determined to bring the former head of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases to justice. Speaking to The Daily Wire Wednesday, Paul explained why he’s confident that the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee will hold the embattled doctor in contempt — and what he thinks could happen next.

Well, as our wonderful president (and I mean that in all sincerity) is wont to say, we'll just have to wait and see. And that said, Forget Greasy Kid Stuff Newsom, Mayor Buttplug or Chlamydia Harris, I think the Democrats might at long last have their ideal candidate for 2028 — Mini-Mengele Fauci!

Have a good day, and on a personal note, thank you for all your good wishes yesterday. And thank goodness for the A-Bomb that ended World War Two 81 years ago today. Nod of thanks to an uncle who worked as a tool and die maker for Enrico Fermi!

• These declassified records suggest that the FBI was determined to conclude that President Trump was a Russian asset despite a lack of evidence and pushback from agency personnel. Significantly, the investigation into claims of collusion between the President and Russia heavily disrupted the early years of the first Trump administration. The investigation heightened partisan divisions and deepened distrust of the Intelligence Community. They show that perceptions of the Intelligence Community as excessively scrutinizing President Trump without a solid foundation to do so were warranted, raising concerns about the weaponization of the federal government and its agencies.
