Trump almost gets it with Putin. There is no need for Trump’s 50-day grace period for the thug’s decision to come to the table. Five days would have been more than enough for Putin to tell the world how he wants to continue his war with Ukraine. But at least our president is beginning to understand that he has been played by Putin, the mullahs, the ugly fat kid, and China’s Xi, the most clever of them all. This ain’t New York real estate.
Polymarket is a crowd-sourced prediction website (here) that lets people bet money on the outcome of future events on all kinds of topics. It has shown its results to be prescient way beyond what polls report, and is today in a good position to put a lot of polls out of business. This is abetted by the recent closing of two federal investigations into its operations (here). We see an example of the value of polls from some of our liberal commenters who have gleefully announced Trump’s downfall from polling results over most of the last decade. Such leftwing people have never been influenced by realworld results. Now they are planning to give communism another try in NYC.
The deportation record for illegal aliens under recent presidents is one of lamestream media’s current big lies. They are telling their lightly read audiences that deportations of those innocent, hard-working “undocumented immigrants” was President Trump’s racist idea. They are silent on the other presidents’ records – Obama deported 3.1M, Biden deported 3.4M, Trump has deported 1.4M. The anti-American left (aka Democrats) do not recognize the laws that make illegal entry into the US a crime, and ALL such illegal aliens in our country criminals subject to summary deportation. Illegal aliens do not have the complete slate of constitutional rights enjoyed by American citizens. (more here)
[19jul25 update] Epstein files, who is preventing their release? It turns out that it is our legal system instead of the flood of lamestream lies that the Trump DoJ is trying to hide something that would damage the president. The reasons for a limited release of Epstein documents involve extant legal restrictions, victim protection, and ongoing appeals. The controversy surrounding the Trump administration’s handling of the files, including “calls for transparency” have no merit whatsoever, but just political potboilers from Democrats who have nothing besides Trump hatred to offer voters.

[22jul25 update] Stephen Colbert’s pink slip from CBS still gives the know-nothing, late night, unfunny man ten months to spew his TDS, copy that has left him with dregs of stupid viewers while costing the network $40M in annual losses. But what is really perverse about this is the legion of talking heads today on lamestream media, as shown on FN, who are howling that canning Colbert represents a new and dangerous level of “censorship by Trump’s authoritarian administration.” According to their propaganda CBS has no right to avoid losses and rid itself of content that has a dwindling audience and dismal ratings. I remind RR readers that this is another in the flood of evidence of how the intrinsically evil Democrats are trying to influence their poorly informed and undereducated constituents. (more here)
Iran’s nuclear facilities were not only “seriously damaged” but “destroyed” according to Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi as interviewed by Bret Baier on Fox News yesterday (here). This again gives lie to the leftwing lamestream’s charges that America’s B-2s’ raid earlier this monthly was ineffective in eliminating Iran’s nuclear weaponization capability. Their foreign minister clearly stated that “our facilities have been destroyed” (see video @ 8 minutes) and Iran’s “nuclear development has now stopped”. Unfortunately Fox’s ongoing delinquent journalism omitted emphasizing the admission that the bombed facilities were indeed “destroyed” as reported by President Trump and subsequently mocked by the Left.
BTW, Fox News is still America’s most comprehensive, reliable, and best source of news and commentary that you can access on your TV (in spite of my constant criticisms and nitpicking their reportage). This fact is confirmed by every metric reporting viewership composition, ratings, profitability, and balanced reporting. And it’s further confirmed by the number of international leaders who choose a single network on which to be interviewed and communicate to the American people. No other network comes close, most certainly not CNN and MSNBC, the lamestream’s finest examples of junk journalism, unfortunately embraced by some of RR’s leftwing readers.
